[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] baxic:
Hey , Today when i wanted to root my phone i soft bricked my phone , i can still enter download mode and i tried flashing new firmware on it , but when the flashing is done it doesnt auto reboot, and i cant get into the recovery mode .

Im using odin 4 34 .

I need some pro help.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] reneph:
Someone probably can help you better if you would give some more informations like your original firmware, the targeted firmware etc.

Try using v4.43.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] baxic:
oke odin 4.43 does more and different things then 4 34 so i will just wait and see
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] crisdorya:
Before doing anything, try using ODIN 4.43.

I tryed to flash my SGS+ with 4.28 and it didn`t work but then I used 4.433 and it was flawless!

Hope it works...

I'm using stock nooted 1.2. and I'm looking for either a ported version of the honeycomb unlock screen or a similar replacement. I found Ripple Lock, but it doesn't always work right and it usually disables the NC's battery-saving sleep mode. I liked how Ripple Lock adjusted screen orientation though. Anyone have a somewhat functioning .zip they've been working on that I can flash in recovery? I'll beta test for someone if I need to.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfway:
Hello,

To keep it short. I am looking for any other cool things to do with my phone (rooted/S-offed) to increase performance or just cool things to F around :) There must be tons of possibilities with a rooted/S-offed phone :)

So far I have done a few:

Custom ROM recent CM7 nightly #208

Juwe's RAM optimization script

Custom theme

SD card ext3 partition for all my apps, so I have plenty of internal memory left

adfree app to block app ads

camera "less picture compression" script

I know I could try different ROM's but I am quite pleased with CM7 so I think I'll just stay with this one for now :)

Cheers
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slymobi:
Could try some stickers lol. Only joking,have you looked into custom mtd? Very good for extra internal memory.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagpuss0001:
Just a quick and probably silly question about MTD partitioning. (I know the answer for a PC, but not for a smartphone.)

If I resized my MTD and free up internal memory, would this increase the benefits from the JUWES or V6 Ram optimisation or is it just for more storage space for apps?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3xeno:
Its just app storage. RAM (Which Juwe's Script and V6 Supercharger Script optimize) and ROM (Which Custom MTD alters) are different.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nakulkhanna:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzfive:
A friend of mine showed me a ROM he's using (ZTE Blade) called Ginger Stir Fry which has a signal type icon (G, 3G, H, etc.) with the signal bars (see this screenshot...)

I tried copy/pasting files between the SystemUI.apk found in that ROM and the SystemUI.apk found in the CM7 Nightly I'm currently using (#207), but as I thought, it's not as simple as that.

What would it take to "port" one ROMs SystemUI.apk to another ROM?

EDIT: had a look at the SystemUI.apk in a few other ROMs, and it's the same with those, signal type with the signal bars. So it seems like it is part of the leak itself.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan542:
I don't have ZTE Blade and I don't know the rom. Is the signal icon feature also in the leaked rom from ZTE? Because I don't have the source, I don't know how it's actually done. I think you would have to go into the android/cm7 source and edit it + add icons from GSF rom into resources. I belive it'd be easier to write the code (so that it can be added into cm (or you can fork it) - opensource...). I want to write my own rom (and optionaly include signal types icons in it), but I'll probably wait for ICS and base it on ICS.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qzfive:
This ROM is apparently based on the leak, and I'm trying to find out if the signal types on the signal bars are in the leak too.

EDIT: had a look at the SystemUI.apk in a few other ROMs, and it's the same with those, signal type with the signal bars. So it seems like it is part of the leak itself.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan542:
So it's some ZTE stuff, which also uses other parts of the leak (something like Samsung's TouchWiz - also won't run on cm). But as I said before, it won't be that hard to copy icons and write the code into cm. Maybe I'll try to do it.

how about a tutorial to do it the easy way... with a custom rom or kernel via heimdall! (heimdall for reliability and cross platform compatibility)

this will all be irrelivant once 2.3.5 drops. and for all new phones from here on out. superoneclick doesnt work on 2.3.3+ and win no rageagainstthecage (what makes superoneclick work) you cant push su and superuser nor can you push modded recovery and root with an update script. it all needs to be done externally and flashed with the availible flash tools which is quicker and easier to begin with. (easier for the end user anyway) but thanks for the effort.

Ive got an issue installing the 3E recovery mod, ive got my device rooted, but when i go to my system/bin it says its already mounted as r/w tho i cant change my permissions, when i do edit them and select "ok" it doesnt save my settings. :/ what am i doing wrong? i cant paste in the modded recovery.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Jahallah:
Which app are you using to browse? You have to grant Super User/permission to the file browser (some don't support this) before you mount r/w. Check the settings is the file browser, it may be something you missed
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mista Panda:
im running Root Manager, like all the tutorials say to :/
[Samsung Infuse 4G] EXPERIMENT:
In the market there is an app called root checker, that will tell you if you have root access and whether or not busy box is installed. Once you have confirmed you have root access, open "Root Explorer" not manager, there is a difference. That will give you the ability to change to r/w in the top left once you are in the system files. Also you should automatically see superuser pop up and confirm that you are granting root explorer root access when you start it.

Good luck.

First I need to pay credit to Stuke00 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1185243 for the commands needed for the Temp Root. Now this is a Temp Root not a Perm Root which means if your phone gets shutdown your root will be lost. A Perm Root has been made by Evil_DevNull here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1276583 Use this Temp Root if you dont want your phone to always be rooted or if you are trying to downgrade your HBoot.

The process is 4 easy steps.

1. Install SDK Manager to the root of your C:\ drive.

Follow this guide by BrandoKC here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=932749 for installing SDK Manager properly.

2. Download these 3 files and place them in your C:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools.

http://downloads.androidsu.com/super...ser3-beta1.apk

http://downloads.androidsu.com/super.../su-3.0-alpha7

http://tinyw.in/1lI

3. Connect phone to computer and make sure you select Charge Only when asked by Connect to PC menu

4. Now download my Temp Root.rar and unpack. Run my Temp Root.bat file and your phone will be Rooted.

Follow step 3 and run my Temp Root Re-Root.bat file for re-rooting your phone if Temp Root is lost.

[EVO Shift 4G General] Evil_DevNull:
Tests confirm, adb isn't fast enought to handle .002sec commands, which is why I put annoying pauses into it. Which is also why Inditect give adb time to catch up as well with his Yes/No request commands. Batch files are from the DOS age, but reliable in its simplest form. However old DOS with current ADB crashes. Which is why you can't call ADB its self.

This script is in all honesty, a fast way to soft brick ANY device.

the OG commands, I.e copy n paste gave adb time to follow thru with the commands and report errors as they come.

My script and batch had to be slowed down (pauses) to provide debugging information.

Indirects script added yes/no pauses to allow again, for adb to keep up.

Batch files are raw, fast and as dumb as it sounds, furious. It's unrelenting to say the least.

By this batch being as raw as it is, and uncontrollable as it is, seems irresponsible for any dev to release.

Please don't take this as an insult but why let others take it 2 steps forward, just to release something that takes 5 steps back.

Just my 15 years of exp worth of 2 cents.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] theduckking:
As we all know quadrant is no reliable measure for speed. At least I knew this for a while now and it was repeated and quoted many times.

This article tells anybody with a functioning brain (that is used of course) that quadrant means pretty much nothing.

I can't help to run it from time to time anyway:D

So I sat on the to... in my room in front of my computer with my phone. I9000 with supersonic ROM and the remount script from adrenaline shot 7. I sat there and said to myself "how hight can you score in quadrant LOL"

I started quadrant up and ran the benchmark: 2309

Then I opened the task manager-> Exit all & Clear memory

Then via long press homebutton back to quadrant to run the benchmark again score: 2453

But since I am a programmer and can imagine all kinds of optimizations and caching I pressed the back button and just ran it again just after it finished

Score: 2675

How the hell could anyone call that a benchmark?^^

just to be sure could anyone confirm that behavior? And does anyone know of a mor reliable alternative? I'd like to collect that knowledge in this thread.

TL;DR: quadrant sucks, you know anything better or want to flame away: do it here:)

Those are not the actual numbers from my first experiment, I repeated the scenario just now and took the numbers from those runs.

Additional runs scored 2775, 2907 and 2820, that's just silly
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] allotrios:
I think this behaviour is well known and has to do with JIT optimizations or something like that
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Rubysz:
The reason is irrelevant. The fact it doesn't provide a reliable benchmark is.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] lgsshedden:
no benchmark is precise if you don't use it as intended. Quadrant produces a reliable comparative benchmark when used as designed: run it five times, remove the lowest and highest scores and average the remaining 3 -- that is your benchmark. You may not like it, but that is how it is designed to be used.

Now if you want to be pedantic, you could reasonably test again, by running quadrant 5 times, removing the outliers and average your 3 remaining scores. Repeat 10 times and then tell me how your average scores do or do not vary: they will in fact be within a narrow range, your actual benchmark.

Alternatively, tell us which benchmark produces the same score each run, as that appears to be the sum total of your objection to quadrant.

There are other benchmarks, such as Caffiene Mark, AnTuTu and NenaMark, but they are all apps just as Quadrant is and all require several runs and averaging to produce a comparable benchmark.

Moreover, the primary use of any benchmark is to compare firmware (kernel and rom) builds on the same phone to see relative performance gain and drop.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] whaave:
A benchmark is supposed to give way of comparing the capabilities of a given device. This means that a device with a high average score implies a better device than a lower score.

But the Quadrant score does nothing of this sort! In a competition with a friend I achieved an average Quadrant score of about 4300, with a peak of 4462. According to Quadrant my device is a lot better than the OP! Which is just not true.

Quadrant is unreliable as a benchmark, no matter how it is "designed to be used".
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] upichie:
You're doing it wrong.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] disclaimernotice:
Quadrant scores are useless. I've used custom roms with scores of 2500+ but they aren't as smooth as stock roms, which only have scores of 1600-1800.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ZioGTS:
Antutu is indeed quite reliable imho. My results never fluctuate more than +-5% on the same config. That's an acceptable range, considering I don't set cpu governor to performance before running my tests.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] whaave:
w00t? :P

Quadrant does not reflect performance, and therefore can not be used as a comparison parameter.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] haloimplant:
It can't be much worse than I thought.

My phone with 2.1 and 'lag fix' scored 2200 and lagged so bad I wanted to throw it against a wall multiple times a day.

With stock 2.3 quadrant can be ~1000 but the phone runs much smoother.

Other than the obvious file systems I/O 'cheats' that resulted in the above, there is also the frame rate cap that makes the GPU tests useless as well.
