1) You must be rooted. (You've done this)

2) If you have a /Voodoo folder on your internal SD card, delete it and reboot. (dont have a custom rom so dont worry about this)

3) If you're already running a custom ROM with Voodoo lagfix FULLY enabled, you can skip to step 7. (dont skip to 7)

4) Download CWM-community-kernel-v8.zip if you're on Froyo or CWM-infused-v2.0.1-kernel.zip if you're on Gingerbread and place it on your internal SD card. ( Download the CWM-community one since you are on Froyo, put it on your sd card)

5) Install SGS Kernel Flasher from the Market. (open market and find it)

6) Open SGS Kernel Flasher, select choose kernel, select the file you downloaded, and select flash kernel. Your phone will reboot and begin to enable Voodoo lagfix. Let it do that and boot all the way up. It will take a while (5-10 minutes) because it's converting all partitions to ext4. (open SGS and choose kernel, you may have to go back a file, and select Sd card, look for zip file)

7) If you're on Froyo, you must now install a file explorer like Root Explorer from the Market and use it to delete the file /system/bin/recovery. You will need to hit the "Mount R/W" button in Root Explorer before it will let you delete it. I can't stress this enough... you MUST MUST MUST delete that file before continuing or else you will get boot loops! (do as it says, cant explain it better)

8) Now install ROM Manager from the Market and open it.(Find ROM manager in market)

9) Select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and choose "Galaxy S i9000". (open ROM manager, select Flash clockworkmod Recovery, choose the i1900 file.)

10) Now go to "Download ROM", select my section (gtg465x), select the latest Infused V2 release, and hit the download button. (In ROM manager find Download ROM, select gtg465x. and select 2.2.3, hit download)

11) At the "Installation Type" prompt, select full. (do as it says)

12) Select the addons you wish to install and then wait for ROM Manager to download the ROM. There is a note at the bottom of this post about which addons are not compatible with each other. (do as it says)

13) When you get to the "ROM Pre-Installation" prompt, you MUST check "Wipe Data and Cache" unless you're coming from Infused V2 BETA 1. (select Wipe data can Cache)

14) Press OK. Your phone will reboot and automatically install the ROM. Just sit back and relax. (BAM)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] joeym11:
I'm actually on gingerbread lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] TheCajun:
Ok then flash the other zip for gingerbread. Only change in instructions
[Samsung Infuse 4G] TheCajun:
And open up my files folder and make sure you dont have a Voodoo folder. If so delete it
[Samsung Infuse 4G] joeym11:
Ok i think i pretty much got it, but i dont know what you mean by flashing it... do you use the kernal flasher that i was supposed to download?and then the file that i have to put in the internal sd card... do i just put it on like anywhere? like where the folders all are? like the folder voodoo was in?

And last thing, what rom manager should i use? does it matter?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] joeym11:
sorry i know the flashing thing now,i just use the kernal flasher, but number 7, do i just skip that step? it says if im on froyo which i'm not... but i just went to move the file over, but do i put the whole zip over or what do i do?

[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
So he charges money to install free software lol nice. I wonder what he does if he bricks your atrix trying to unlock the boot loader lol.
[Atrix 4G General] BravoMotorola:
Yeah, plus he give NO links, and NO credit to anyone. People can so easily do this themselves but this prick is trying to get you to pay for it. And the whole video from 9:00 on makes no sense at all and he's just making up stuff as he goes along. Either way, I really hope nobody is stupid enough to pay these guys...

[Atrix 4G General] paravorheim:
Wait. He's providing a service that people COULD technically do on their own, but choose to pay the guy for? That sounds terrible! That's worse than taking a car to the mechanics!
[Atrix 4G General] bironeaj:
Maybe we should start rooting phones and loading custom roms for money haha
[Atrix 4G General] toughbax:
That is a perfect analogy! Anyone COULD fix their car in under 20 minutes as long as they follow the short, easy to understand guide, they just choose to pay someone else to do it.

When the final CM7 is out with everything working (fp, weptop) I would rather pay $50-$100 to some XDA member in my area to unlock and install it if I don't have the time to do it, takes some reading, root, unlock, backup data, install.
[Atrix 4G General] jeremyshaw:
However, I'd rather pay a fellow xda member than that scumbag.
[Atrix 4G General] lilhaiti:
For a technophobe, this would be a god send. It's actually not a bad idea. They buy phones, root them and sale them. I've rooted many of my friend's phone and all I get is beer and a pat on the back...it'd be cool to get paid to do this.
[Atrix 4G General] xandr115:
Sarcasm, well at the very least, a disclaimer can be made that it can be done for free yourself and make reference to the developers of the tools.

Rooting Service !

Long time browser, first time contributor.

Sounds to me like they are offering a service just like fixing a car or installing Linux. Not sure why that qualifies them as “scumbags”.

I'm not very technical, and like several others have mentioned, would gladly pay someone to root my phone.

I did call them about my rooting my Inspire a few months back, and they did offer replacement protection against bricking my unit. Also, if I mess-up my device in the future, I can always send it back to them for repair – no charge.

If everything on the xda-threads worked perfectly, I too wouldn’t mind rooting myself. But, I can see from several threads, some of which are over 1000 pages long, that things don’t always go right – I don’t have time for that (as much fun as it sounds).

Find me a member of ebay, craigslist or XDA-Developers who will do the same job for less, with the same guarantee, and I’d move my business to them – I have yet to find anybody.
[Atrix 4G General] Deggy:
Everyone is good at something.

Not everyone is good at everything.

I wish I thought about this stuff before those guys did.
[Atrix 4G General] lilm:
Anyone else want to bet that this is the guy selling the services?
[Atrix 4G General] madnav:
I can offer you replacement protection for any cars you may damage in a video game I want to sell..

of course that videogame may have been developed by someone else who is just seeking donation against fees but hey... he is not as nice as me to offer replacement protection for cars in the game.

Probably the cars are not real and wont cost anything but why not make it a point of sale when you can? right?

such behaviour is taken with "screw you devs!!" attitude...
[Atrix 4G General] sunshine1982:
i root, jailbreak, theme, and fix a lot of ppls phones from work, i even bring my laptop in and do it there while on breaks. i don't ask them to pay me anything, however, if they want to buy me lunch or whatever i don't turn it down lol. but charging this much for any of these services is ridiculous. i'm pretty sure that everyone out there knows someone who can help them with their phone for free, you just might not know that person is phone savvy atm. ask around your groups of friends first if your nervous or don't have the time to do it yourself. its much cheaper and quicker that way. most things done to a phone are fixable, and usually its a lot easier than the person realizes. don't waste money for services like these when it isnt worth it. it was a good idea on their part, but far overpriced for whats offered and the time it takes to do it.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Unfortunately comparing the "service" he is offering to car repair isn't practical. To modify your phone you have all the hardware needed (cable, computer, free software). To fix your car you often don't. If you're comparing maybe servicing your car with small maintenance things like wiper blades, air up your tires, change headlights, fill washer fluid ext. then yes there is no reason to pay someone for that. But last time I checked when you bought a car they didn't install a lift and tons of air tools in you're garage. So like I said if you want to get technical he's charging you quite a bit to change your wiper blades and fill up your tires because you're to lazy to spend 30 minutes reading.

Deodex & Theming

You sound so sure of yourself, yet I'm not sure what your point is? Do you know something that everybody else doesn't? Either I'm not getting your joke, or it appears that in your mind, there is no relationship between loading themes and the base rom being de-odexed. However, a simple google search reveals your error:

From AddtictiveTips.com:

"The advantage of deodexing is in modification possibilities. This is most widely used in custom ROMs and themes. A developer building a custom ROM would almost always choose to deodex the ROM package first, since that would not only allow him to modify various APKs, but also leave room for post-install theming."

and

"In summary, Deodexed ROMs (or APKs) have all their application packages put back together in one place, allowing for easy modification such as theming. Since no pieces of code are coming from any external location, custom ROMs or APKs are always deodexed to ensure integrity."

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-odex-and-deodex-in-android-complete-guide/

It appears that de-odexing is a requirement for theming (or at least a very wise choice). And while loading launcher-pro and some backgrounds is not technically theming, the rom in the video is AlienRom, which offers a theme you can download and install via zip file (which requires the Rom to be de-odexed).

And, the service is $99.99 including free shipping - not sure where you are getting $600 from?

And, on a friendly note, your arrogance is shocking in light of your ignorance.

Anybody else want to comment on this because I'm under the strict impression that before I can load theme files, I need to ensure that the base rom is de-odexed. Right?
[Atrix 4G General] jiggytom:
video is private...anyone got another link?
[Atrix 4G General] xploited:
Technically you are right.

BUT, car technicians don't fix your car by stealing someone else's car parts.

Having said that, if they provided the links to BL Unlock, CWM and CM7 instructions and gave the credit to the authors of these mods and said "you can follow these instructions or have us do it for you" -- I would say good for them.

Otherwise, they do qualify as scumbags.
[Atrix 4G General] Deggy:
I think your sarcasm radar is broken.
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
I understand where you are coming from as a "service', but what they are doing is still frowned upon by the XDA community.

No matter how you spin their service, they are still profiting from the time and hard work from others around here.

Also on a final but seperate note, if anyone can't "root" their phone, is it really "that important" to actually have a rooted phone?...
[Atrix 4G General] pukemon:
Id rather see them point in the direction where the apples grow.

I voided my warranty and your mum.
[Atrix 4G General] TinyRK:

[Atrix 4G General] BravoMotorola:
IMO, I don't think he's right in every single way. Maybe you're him again on another account and you're agreeing with your own self to give yourself your own support?
[Atrix 4G General] Swiftks:

[Atrix 4G General] Mister J:
Someone doesn't agree with my opinion so they obviously have more than 1 account to agree with themselves. Man, you sure are an intellectual one aren't you? Oh brb gonna make an account so I can thank myself.
[Atrix 4G General] BravoMotorola:
Yeah because I wasn't kidding at all I was completely being for real.
[Atrix 4G General] Ratchet556:
Its not the fact that he is charging people for it that bothers me personally. hell if any of my friends wanted me to do it for em I'd make them pay for me having to take time out of my day to do it XD but I'm kind of a sick that way. What I have a problem with is the fact that he did not give credit to any of the developers who made the stuff. Be could have at least but their names in subtitles or something.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Forum sarcasm fail.
[Atrix 4G General] chriscerv90:
I asked why poster of video did not reference back to any of the Devs who made CM7 possible for the Atrix or even refer back to XDA - this was the reply.

"@ChrisCerv ONLY the Devs from CM7?? What about: devs from Alien Rom, ALL THE DEVS WHO CREATED Android (in general, like the entire OS), how about the owners of XDA-Developers for creating the forum, how about Motorola (all the employees), how about all the employees of AT&T etc? I'd prefer just to mention CM7, Alien Rom, Android, Motorola, AT&T, Google, XDA-Developers. However, you can get back to me with ALL the devs for the items above, and I will post them - Thanks!"

Bit douchey at start if you ask me.
[Atrix 4G General] halfevildruid:
I see nothing wrong with this. How many hours have we all spent searching and learning this and other forums to better our phones. Of all the people I kknow none of them have the time patience or knowledge to do this to their own phone, so they call me to help. :confused:

I had a friend want to do his and his wife's phone and I pointed him in the right areas of XDA and warned him to read and learn as much as possible before he did it AND recommended he send them to me and I would do it for him for free. He felt confident and went to doing it himself and a few days later found himself in Verizon's line, fingers crossed, that they would replace his phone for him.:(

This is consulting and providing a service that not everyone can or wants to do. He did offer to provide credit to all names supplied, so if you all really want that done..... give him the names of all and let him provide credit. He did not "steal" anything, he is using open source public software readily available to anyone. :rolleyes:

He also did not bring it here to XDA, someone else did. If anything he said "good folks at XDA" for these tools, and if you ask me that was enough to point folks here if they want to learn themselves.:eek:

And I am not him or his duplicate agree with himslf account. I just think what they do is OK if they are absorbing the risk for the promise of service. It seems that they are.

What he should do is donate to the proper devs everytime he makes a few bucks using some of the software so they keep deving and he keeps getting better tools to use in his consulting and service!
[Atrix 4G General] thewarhawk:
True, pretty douchey, and his argument is invalid, since we already thanked most of those people in the form of exchanging cash for their products (they're getting paid to make all of that)

however, the devs working on CM7, Alien, and other mods for this phone are doing it (mostly) just for the credit and thanks, and when they don't even get that, that's enough to make me not like the person. It's not hard to give credit to those mods, so why not?
[Atrix 4G General] Eddie Bombay:
I do the same stuff locally on craigslist. Its good money and people just don't have time to learn how to root, unlock and install custom roms. I charge only 15$ per root and so about 11 to 17 roots a week. I always do and have donated a small portion of the money to the developers though in the past. You just need to think of it as you're doing a service for someone and saving them a ton of time looking up stuff and a lot of reading.

Releasing the initial version [RC1] of CyanogenMod for I9003 :). This very early release (I could not complete the things I thought of completing before the release due to lack of time. Also will not be able to focus for quite some time), so not recomended for day to day use. Its only being released testing and further development. Download links are given below:

P.S. Please do not flash this unless you know the risks. :)

Big Thanks to:

codeworkx

(10/02/2011) : Initial release for CyanogenMod for I9003

Download:

Download the update here : update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxySL-KANG-signed.zip

(10/03/2011): Additional files to be consistent with my setup.

(10/09/2011): Wifi issues fixed and (requires netchip's kernel).

1) Netchip's kernel

2) Wifi Patch (by vivekkalady)

Installation Steps:

Using ODIN flash the following in Bootloader and PDA respectively:

1) Booloader (Froyo) : http://www.multiupload.com/3PDRKE80Y5

2) CWM and Kernel : http://www.multiupload.com/MVR3SDM9IE

Boot into recovery and select the following zip (from your sdcard, which should already be there :) ):

3) update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxySL-KANG-signed.zip

4) Now follow the same as above for this file

Audio Patch (must be installed after the above updates) : http://www.multiupload.com/U0R4UCQA4V

5) Reboot the phone. this would take some time (but should not take more than 5 mins) :)

Attach your "logcat" and "dmesg" here in case it is still not booting up.

By default GoogleApps are not included with CM. To install GoogleApps, use this:

http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip

P.S. This will format your phone and erase system and user data too.

As promised, I have also released the source code for other wonderful devs to contribute and take this forward. The source code can be found at: https://github.com/galaxyishere

I will not be able to focus much on further development in coming days, so request to all the devs to continue this work (there is still lot to achieve).

P.S.: Request devs to send me a PM with github details, so that I can add them to github to be able to make the changes as required.

Known Issues:

1) Wifi drivers loading and pairing works with manual ip, but no network access. Fixed by vivekkalady

2) Audio works, but DSP Manager not working

3) OpenGL issues, causing lags.

4) Video codes not identified in stock player. (Moboplayer works well).

5) Camera is not working

6) No boot animation and sound.
