[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xninjax92:
Thanks Adam.. You always seem to have all the right answers. As for the drivers then, are you saying I just need to re install the regular Samsung drivers for the phone to replace theheimdall one?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Yes, that is what he is saying. Those drivers conflict. But don't just reinstall the Samsung divers over the heimdall one, uninstall it first.

Alright, so I've always been a bit confused about this whole phone modding thing and I usually just follow the instructions on the given ROM I want. I forgot what ROM and process I did a few months ago but since then, it has been slowing down and freezing alot lately so I'm looking to update it once again. Is there something I should do to my phone before I go from my current custom rom to another custom rom? I was also wondering what is an overall good rom/kernal that you would recommend, I've heard good thing about Valhalla v1.3.2 but it seems that KJ1 just came out and is much better.

Phone specs:

Samsung Galaxy S 4g (Bought it the day it came out)

Model Number: SGH-T959V

Firmware Version: 2.3.3

Baseband Version: T959VUVKF2

Kernal Version: 2.6.35.7-T959VUVKF2-CL277147

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.VUVKF2

Not sure if it matters but all my phone info is above.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:

Alright for the past 4 hours I've been having major trouble with this, I've been very close to bricking it many times and I've decided to stop where Im at because this is the first time I've got anything to boot up in a while.

That is what Im using right now.

Can someone please tell me how I would get my phone to be at the Valhalla stage?

Follow these steps and you will be using Valhalla in no time.

After you get Valhalla up and running you can get the KJ1 kenrel here:

Both of which flash via CWM
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikeflash:
To the OP, get rid of kf2 as soon as you can!!! that's the worst GB ROM ever. Battery drains really fast.

Any ROM would be good for you, you should however get valhalla 1.3.2 (wiping all your /data) and set it up to get ready for next valhalla update, which should be out soon, and flashing it won't mess up with your installed apps.

I think you should install kg4 first via Odin, just to be sure you get proper GB bootloaders and avoid bootloops later.

Good luck
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
GET RID OF KF2. KF2 has a potential to brick your phone. It has a different way of getting into Download mode and has no recovery. Press volume up and power only to get into download mode. Flash KG4 to get right bootloaders.

Flash KJ1.

I'm having trouble installing this, did you do anything special? I've manually installed market updates many times before and never had a problem, for some reason I'm not able to install this apk. I even tried uninstalling my previous installation of market with Titanium Backup in case that was causing some kind of compatibility issue, but nothing.

edit: I figured out the issue, this can't be installed like a normal app...you must use root explorer or file explorer to replace the market apk in system/apps and set the permissions as detailed in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1284335

its crazy depressing that the sph-p100 samsung galaxy dont have as many roms at the gsm models... and the roms that they do have my retarded but yet lovable "tabby" dont want to comply... *dreams of running a stable honeycomb rom on it" *sigh*
[Galaxy Tab General] pvtjoker42:
dunno.. i guess the ver of HC i ran on my tab was just too lacking (couldn't even get it working on my WPA2 wifi, and the lag in general) vs a nice streamlined CM7 GB rom.. and now there's a OC kernel in the works.. hell, if that comes out (plz Rodderik make it CM7 compatible!) and works well enough with CIFS support I'll probably stop flashing my tab every week (gasp!)
[Galaxy Tab General] rygran87:
Every flashaholic's vow and yet, CM8 may come out and we'll all be back to our old ways lol!
[Galaxy Tab General] pvtjoker42:
too true.. lol

but it's doubly bad since i have 2 android devices, and a 3rd i can play with but won't be flashing (it's the woman's Droid 3, I rooted it and got her to pick up Titanium backup to freeze the bloat, but that's all i plan on with her phone)
[Galaxy Tab General] TheATHEiST:
How is ":<" in any way a descriptive title for a thread?
[Galaxy Tab General] burhanistan:
I think some people spend more time obsessing over flashing new operating systems on their devices than actually using the devices. It's like buying a toilet just to flush it all day long. Have a seat and enjoy yourself!
[Galaxy Tab General] maddsoul:
because im tryin to flash tabby to a epic rom and use her to her extent but theres barely any roms out that actually catches my eye... and im not gonna lie i do get half of the things i own just to flash and hack... lol
[Galaxy Tab General] rygran87:
I can relate. If I had the money, I'd do the same. I own the same devices as pvtjoker and since reasonably stable releases of CM7 came out, I've flashed the tab and epic twice. I had to try MIUI... No good on the tab, but sweet on the Epic. So I have MIUI on my Epic and CM7 Kang on my Galaxy Tab. Who needs the same old stuff on two already similar devices?
[General Topics] AntonJart:
I have been having numerous arguments with people regarding Android vs the rest.

We all know that Android is an operating system, that is used by many phone manufacturers - therefore it CANNOT be compared to iPhone directly and vise versa!

Same thing is about Windows OS.

What I am trying to say is that Android equipment manufacturers have to step up the game. I believe that making a new phone every other month is a BIG NO NO. Especially when the phone is not well tested.

As an example, I own myTouch 4G. First one had a washed out screen and not working Genius button. Second one had a spic of dust under the screen, but lucky for me - it had both good screen and eMMC. So I decided to keep it. Other folks have their phones die on them because of the bad eMMC chip.

Similar issue goes to the G2 (I read about bad eMMC chips). I also heard that Sensation has some issues too!

I witnessed people exchanging up to 7 phones, and yet to get a good one.

On the other hand, Samsung devices are seem to be very plastic on the touch. I did held them in hand. Yes, the screen looks gorgeous, but the phone itself feels bad in the hand.

LG is another story.

I haven't tried or read about SE phones.

You would ask, why the hell did I write this all?

I simply want to voice my opinion. I just sick to see all these phones popping out and then read that one has bad power button, another has 2 types of screen, and then get one of them. I really want to see Android rise up in class!

Heck for not having problems I could have gone with iPhone, but I am an Android fan and chose it because it can do what I need!

I believe with the resources that Samsung, HTC, LG and other have - they can do so much better!

Lets discuss what bad sides Android phones have and what can be improved. I think it is more productive topic than fighting over blindly.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
The reason for Samsung's "plastic" feel is durability, you drop a metal phone then the weight is going to make it more likely to break, the plastics Samsung uses often just has the back pop off, maybe a scratch.

As for HTC, they're just not a quality company. They build devices that are pretty from afar but once you use them they often have horrid flaws. Very little quality control.
[General Topics] juzz86:
There's nowhere near the level of QC there used to be in the 'real' smartphones - Treos, Communicators, iPAQs etc.

I think they do a pretty good job, there's a fit and finish for just about every taste out there today. The target audience has changed a lot, the userbase has expanded exponentially, plus there are many more manufacturers today, all vying for a slice of the pie - price competitiveness has a lot to do with this, too.

It sucks, but these things are built to be thrown away. Why pump billions of dollars into the fit and finish of something outdated two weeks after it hits the streets? Sucks for us, but 'near enough is good enough' for the manufacturers, and fair enough in my opinion :)
[General Topics] chewbz:
Agreed about Samsung durability, I've dropped my phone on probably every surface and it is still good.

As for android there many problems with the OS. No hardware acceleration is probably big on my list. My nexus runs pretty good but I do notice lag from time to time. Stock browser is a joke to use, hella amounts of lag when viewing pics and forget about even viewing flash, so opera for me.

I hope ICS will live up to the hype, because I'm really digging the Nokia and windows mobile deal. Only time will tell...
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
I was rooting for androids latest iteration to blow at least iOS out of the water but if that leaked nexus build is a final it doesn't even look smooth on a nexus device...
[General Topics] PlanDreaM:
Who know?Probably NOT a final build as it as no acceleration. Word is that ICS will have hardware acceleration for both the interface and browser.

We will see.It does look impressive though....

On quality:My HTC Desire is horrendous, all buttons are almost dead, that has to do with quality. On the other hand my Huawei IDEOS X5 is surprisingly good for what i paid for (hint: zero but costs about 199euros).

If you want quality go for a truly expensive and good phone like the gs2, if not buy smething cheaper.

P.S. the buttons on the iphone 4 HAVE problems.3 of my friends went to the applestore to change them.That is not good build quality imho.
[General Topics] z33dev33l:
Eh, I like dells build quality though they fail as a software company. Honestly though I do hope ics is more impressive than it looked in that video because that was just slow and choppy, then again I guess the default UI of android isn't what's supposed to sell android. It's the customization options available.
[General Topics] dennie170:
I have a HTC Desire HD, and in my oppinion Android+Sense is the best mobile combo. all the good things from android + an awesome HTC skin.

Company's like Samsung don't make skins for their phones. I think that they should start making them. Ans if they do that, i might buy a Samsung phone or something like that after my HTC. But if they dont start making skins, i don´t want them...

since i switched to Samsung the plastic design has proven that it can handle the drops much better than the metal
[General Topics] SloMotion:
I got an issue with samsung and their software updates.

I've been lucky so far with HTC. Good build quality and frequently updated software.

If I need to trade off iphone quality for the freedom of Android, I will.
[General Topics] AntonJart:
There got to be some military grade glass, that will hold all kinds of abuse. My back cover of Glacier is already swinging from side to side. I really hope that this upcoming Nexus will fix all of the issues I, and many other, have with Android phones build quality.

I still do not get, where did samsung got info that 4.65" screen is good for everyone?
[General Topics] hottubtimemachine:
hmm. interesting thread, and views.

my experience hasn't been so great with samsung phones. i had a samsung moment and that thing was terrible. and apparently the gs2 is having some problems as well. users have reported problems with the screen/display having some kind of stain like color on it, and the wifi antenna has also been reported by many to be skittish.

not surprising to me. that's what happens when you push a device out based on deadlines rather than completion of thorough testing. regardless of what company is putting the phone out - HTC, samsung, LG... any of them will have problems if they don't ensure a good testing phase pre-release.

i went from the moment to the evo 3D, and the difference is night and day. and i have handled a gs2 and all i can say is i am not impressed. it feels weak and flimsy and in the end, it's still a samsung to me, with the samsung company behind it. i will never own one. but that's just me.

meanwhile, my evo 3D seems to be just a powerhouse in the performance area. i consistently hit quadrant scores over 4300 and linpack scores of 100+ and RL benchmark is completed in about 18 seconds.

there are merely a couple phones out there putting numbers like that down consistently. i know it is that fast in reality, as well, because performing tasks such as viewing, zipping, and opening pdfs from my work email are done extremely fast, and significantly faster than when the phone wasn't rooted with a custom rom/kernel.

just my opinion, but if you can't see the advantage in power and functionality in the android OS, you are not using your phone for anything other than playing games and texting.

[General Topics] X3FBrian:
I love the relevance! Made my day so far
[General Topics] astro11:
I agree with most of your arguments, but there's nothing we can do about it.

Manufacturers are still going to release one smartphone per month because people are used to buy tons of different phones to show to their friends.

More smartphones = more profit.

Doesn't matter if for the market it would be a lot better to play with only one "model" like iPhone does.

Let's hope that Google's Nexus can step up its game and be the iPhone rival.

What kind of rom are you using? There are a lot of ways. Typically you just download the latest version and flash it like you did the first tile. Usually you'll have to wipe data and clear cache unless its BEEN STATED that its okay to just overlap whatever rom you have on there. Its always good to read before you do though.

Anybody else having a problem where Gameboid and GBCoid keep randomly going back to the select rom screen? The apps aren't force closing either and when it does happen it says in the notification bar "Gameboid is running" as if I just pressed the home button or something. Other emulators such as N64oid or SNESoid don't do this either. Idk its just really annoying because the emulation itself is fantastic. If it helps I'm running Starburst rom v1.3 and the kernel it comes with but I don't think that matters because it was happening before I was rooted. Anyways thanks in advance for any fixes and sorry for the long post.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] henbone11:
this happens with just about any kind of game I play, not just emulators. any kind of tower defense game or plants vs zombies or anything that requires some sort of graphics. games like spades or dominoes or games with low graphical requirements seem to be fine. ive been rooted from day one and have always had a custom kernel and rom. my gf's e4gt was stock until about a week ago and her's did the same thing. you can play for 5 - 10 min then the games would just close. no FC, just close. battery temps rise as well when this happens. I wonder if its not a dodgy gpu or gpu driver?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Mine's the opposite. Runs fine on n64oid, Alchemy, Cut the Rope, and even Beats. But Gameboid and GBcoid both randomly crash (without prompting a FC.)
