[Continuum Android Development] trailblazer101:
I read somewhere, and it turned out to be pretty true, that PITs are actually kinda of a big deal... And for some reason, they don't work properly most of the time... The PIT that i suggest people use is in fact for the Fascinate, but why would that surprise you? The partition layout of the two phones are exactly the same, it's just our phone has the ticker :P I use that PIT simply for the fact that i know it works, and it doesn't cause problems... And when i tried to use one made specifically for our phone, it didn't work out too well....

So yeah :) haha
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
I just ran into an issue trying to odin an EC07 rom with the Fascinate .pit. It wouldn't complete and I had to pull the plug and start over.
[Continuum Android Development] trailblazer101:
It depends on what Fascinate PIT you are trying :P There is one specific one that works...... A lot of the others DONT............ (Not even properly for the Fascinate...)

[Continuum Android Development] BlindWolf8:
Hello all,

I am helping a friend with this phone. Is writing a PIT file supposed to take a long time? Thanks!
[Continuum Android Development] trailblazer101:
Not longer than like 5 seconds, no :P
[Continuum Android Development] BlindWolf8:
I can't get "SCH-i4000-VZW-Continuum.pit" (DL17) to repartition via Odin or load other files via Heimdall. "Samsung_I500_VZW_PIT.pit" (EC07) repartitions fine. Should I be able to even flash the i4000 .pit file on the phone anymore after going to 2.2.1? (EC03) I'm trying to get back to complete stock if possible. Thanks!

EDIT: Looks like loading the EC07 "leak" got me out of whatever jam I was in. That seems to be the only package with sbl.bin and boot.bin in it.

For those having the same issue in the future that seems to fix the 2e recovery boot loop issue. The phone was booting right into recovery and nothing seemed to budge it. Not 100% sure what happened. If someone would comment and possibly explain to me what happened, I would be grateful. Thanks once again.

Notes from Flashing/Organization

Here's some information for cleanup/organization:

1) In the first post of this thread under the EC07 heading we have these two items:

EC07 Leak stock rom+radio+kernel (odex) all in one odin flash

EC07 radio+kernel only

For those wanting the most up-to-date software, the radio between the two files is exactly the same so the only difference is the kernel file. (zImage) Flashing the two kernels via Heimdall I don't see anything different between the two

besides ADB access

. Can someone shed some light as to the changes made? I am assuming some changes are made since the MD5sums are different and WinMerge reports differing contents.

2.) Kernel requirement for 2.2.2 ROMs?:

The original post is misleading as it says the radio+kernel is needed for the two ROMs below:

EC07 Stock rom+Rooted+deodex+minor debloat

EC07-Clean rom+rooted+bebinged+deodex+minor debloat

This may lead people to believe that the particular bundle of "radio+kernel" (aka modded kernel) listed directly above these two ROMs is needed for these two ROMS, but in my experience that doesn't seem to be the case. Can someone give me more information?

Looking further, it seems the above two ROMs link to the exact same file?

3.) Comparing fiels from other popular threads:

Also, in this thread:

[EC07][DL17] 'Magical' Fix all Solution to Your Problems :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1124107

...you'll see two files listed:

Continuum Original Recovery [EC07]: http://www.mediafire.com/?pz8p4axk114092jf

Continuum Original Param.lfs [EC07]: http://www.mediafire.com/?7isd5m1dbze6a0t

For those wondering, the two files listed are the same files as in EC07 Leak stock rom+radio+kernel (odex) all in one odin flash. The link for the recovery is incorrect. It should be changed to:

Continuum Original Recovery [EC07]: http://www.mediafire.com/?pz8p4axk114092j

The "f" at the end is incorrect in the original post.

This post was made simply to combine a bunch of information in one post to help those new to flashing the Continuum. I am a noob myself but I found it confusing between a few different posts as to what files were the most current.

I hope this helps some people.
[Continuum Android Development] ciscogee:
well for me, your post is confusing, when you copy and paste to quote, you should copy all the test, or leave these little ... things.

as it states in plain text that those roms are different (odex, rooted, deodexed, etc). radio and kernel are the same, only packaged dif.

"apparently" as it states, yes;

roms are different, one is debinged, both do not have radio and kernel packaged with them.

EC07 Stock rom+Rooted+deodex+minor debloat... (needs ec07 radio+kernel flashed first)

EC07-Clean rom+rooted+bebinged+deodex+minor debloat... (dependent on ec07 radio+kernel as well)

^see missing red text

and this one doesn't belong here :( or does it? again confused ^?

+1 on your "cleanup/organization" idea
[Continuum Android Development] BlindWolf8:
Hi ciscogee,

Please see my post now. I've edited it to make it clearer. Sorry about any confusion.
[Continuum Android Development] ciscogee:
its probably in one of the posts about when we first seen EC07, the leak stock kernel is stock.

the raido+kernel combo is from either imnuts or adrynalyne, and the difference would probably have to be that it is rooted. :)

ahhh but it is needed if upgrading from EC03 or DL17, wink wink

but if you are already running EC07 radio and kernel, you dont have to flash ec07.tar (get it?)

thanks link was wrong for EC07-clean.zip... corrected :)

hope this clears up some q's

OP updated
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
The supposed GPS fix is not exclusive to EC07. It can be used with DL17 or EC03. Therefore, to avoid confusion, I would make only 1 section for GPS containing the fix and stock.
[Continuum Android Development] myeweb:
can you tell me what the differences are between DL17, EC03, and EC07? Is it just another way of saying 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3?
[Continuum Android Development] ciscogee:
almost

DL17 = 2.1

EC03 = 2.2.1

EC07 = 2.2.2

:)
[Continuum Android Development] jmberumenb:
First time update

Ok can some one enlighten me Please? :D

I have the original firmware that came with the Continuum...

I already downloaded

ODIN

Drivers

ClockworkMod

Also downloaded

EC07 Leak stock rom+radio+kernel (odex) all in one odin flash

I study the procedure and as long I understand is

Instructions:

To begin, run ODIN and click on PDA, choosing the ROM (.tar) when prompted to.

Put your phone in download mode. (Remove battery, and hold the Volume down key while connecting the USB cable.)

Once you see the phone connected in ODIN, hit the Start button to begin the flashing procedure.

Once the ROM is flashed, the phone will reboot into the new ROM. Let it reboot completely.

Once it has rebooted copy the ClockworkMod recovery package to the root of your SD card and reboot into recovery. (Power off the device, and then hold both Volume keys and the Power button till you see the Samsung Logo.)

In recovery, select apply update.zip to flash the ClockworkMod recovery to the device.

Power the phone off and reboot In ClockworkMod recovery and select wipe data/factory reset.

That done, simply reboot your device.

So I need some help....is right this procedure? Did I miss something?

I' a newbie on this one and don't want to brick my beloved phone :D also is there issues on that ROM? Are they listed on somewhere?

Thanks a lot for you valuable help!!!
[Continuum Android Development] logan302:
Those instructions are solid. It is very hard to brick this phone. I am not running this rom anymore, but the roms posted here may all have small problems, but nothing that is not usable.
[Continuum Android Development] jmberumenb:
Thanks for the quick response...

I also downloaded the EC07-Clean.zip

he firmware was installed without any problem, I found some"bugs" but are minor also only once the GMail "hangs" on error and had to restart, everything is just fine...

My question is, can I re-flash to original Firmware at any time or there is "limitations" for doing that? (Like Nokias that can't be downgraded)

Also Can I re-flash my phone to the Clean version of it using the same instructions? or I need a different procedure?

Thanks a lot for any help :D
[Continuum Android Development] pattielipp:
Flash away. The flashing on this phone are done two different ways, either as a CWM flashable or as a heimdall or odin flashable. Heimdall and Odin are normally complete packages. The CWM flashable can be partial packages or just the system files.

As long as they are odin or heimdall flashes you can flash up and down as you please(unless noted otherwise). With the CWM since they don't flash everything needed, often times you must stay within the same major release ie. dl17-dl17; ec03-3c-3;ec07-ec07
[Continuum Android Development] jmberumenb:
Thanks again for the help...

My last question is...

I have another one but that one will be on Sprint, and already change the SPC to 000000 and is already working for voice and SMS BUT I cangt get over the original Verizon config.

When I use QPST for change the PPP - IP data and restart the phone the config of Verizon returns (vrzw3g.com). Looks like I didn't do anything.

Also have QXDM but I don't know which parameters I need to mod. And the ones NV i know I had to mod can't be accessed :(

I already tried on debug mode, Administrator rights and no use, the Verizon info always retur...is there something I can do for programming and make it stay those parameters on M.IP and PPP Config for good :D

Really need this help since I'm on the move and need that 3G activated for emails and GPS Data....

[EC09] OTA released

if you cant wait for someone to post an odin img for EC09

then flash back to dl17 in and update.

it will be stock odex and mods stripped. so if you are updating through verizon. report what you find! in the meantime, Im assuming anyone interested [including me] in EC09 is doin what they do to release rom/mods/themes :)
[Continuum Android Development] AximUser08:
Some say that there is no such thing as a dumb question, so I am going to ask.

Does today's OTA update to 2.2.2 make the roms available in this thread no longer necessary? I guess I am just evaluating wheter to stick with the OTA update or install one of these ROMS.

thanks...
[Continuum Android Development] Txwolf1980:
The roms are still perfectly useable, if installed correctly. EC09 is the latest, and it has the advantage of being stock, vs. leak. The dev's will have it going very soon, so just sit tight. If you are already on 09, you already have a number of options. Abby has a heimdall flash up, Ciscogee has a deodexed flash up, and I believe Trailblazer is already burning his fingers off tinkering with code.
[Continuum Android Development] georgekuu:
I'ts really necessary update the ClockWorkMod ?? or i can leave only whit the ROM flashed
[Continuum Android Development] ciscogee:
Well depends on rom. Or if your updating to ec09 you will need to reflash test4
[Continuum Android Development] Txwolf1980:
Almost got it right.

1. Ifyoy don't ever plan on flashing cwm mods, you don't need to flash anything after the rom.

2. If you want cwm, you need to put update.zip on the sdcard, then reboot into DOWNLOAD mode (this is all right after the phone reboots from flashing the rom) and put adrynalyne test 4 tar in pda, make sure auto reboot is unchecked. And flash it

Hi

Im using bootmanager (a app which lets you boot into multiple roms 5 to be exact) on my desire running cyanogenmod as the phone rom and with miui-xj, in slot 1. What i want to do is recompile a couple of sense roms for example cool3d sense 3.5 in slot 2. The problem is bootmanager wont install the a2sd partition of the rom.

I was wondering if anyone could give me a guide or point me in the right direction to recompile a rom so i can have everything installed in the system partition. Cause i can manually set the size of all partitions (data, system and cache) manually.

Thanks in advance

Hello...well my daughter has a g1 that I bought her second hand and she does not have a data plan, but that's not the problem...she has done something to her phone..idk what...but it has reverted back to factory 1.6...since she doesn't have a data plan I can't get past the Google sign in page because 1.6 doesn't give you the option to connect to wifi first. And if I hit the menu button it says wireless settings but there is no option foe wifi...so we are stuck... I just wanted to know if someone could post an ruu 2.1 or whatever for the g1 so I can connect to wifi first to get her phone running. Yes it would probably be easier to buy a new one, but she really likes that phone and wants to keep it...and she's my baby so I'm trying to fix it...lol....help please...any help would be appreciated...thank you...

I'm not sure what will work for you since you didn't give much info beside the fact that you don't know what happened to the G1.

Try some of these roms. You might have to flash them sequentially to get to a stock donut. Look for the signed-kila roms... there are three that will take you to a stock donut.

http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/downloads/list

I suppose you could flash back to rc29, sign in, flash the cupcake OTA, then the other two updates and have a donut.

If you are rooted, there is a shortcut... ;)

Your daugther did the factory reset, that was what happens. ;) The easiest way is to see if any of your friend, or her friends has a T-Mobile Plan with a data plan and borrow their SIM chip. Register the phone and you are done.

Another way is to get your daugther a data access from T-Mobile for a day use. And then register the phone.

had my evo flashed by a local metro dealer(full flash). He put the metro edition CM7 on the phone. However im trying to force one of metros new prl in order to get 3g. So on to the question since my ports wont show up on cm7 if i make a nand backup of my settings now switch to a sense rom so i can get the ports to show up for qpst force the prl then restore my backup will i have to run any scripts or willl i be right back where i was but with the new prl?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j7jman:
Did you try to re-designate your port.. meaning veiw the list of ports that's listed under "ports" in computer management, right click on the listed device, and go to properties, then advanced settings in the ports tab [I think its called that] and res designating it to com1 or one that's not in use.. and when you were in "qpst setup" did you click that little box that only allows you tto view certain ports? [I forgot the name mybad] that happened to me when I had to set up the ports.. give me the rundown on what you did and Ill try my best to help you out.. not many people here know how to use qpst.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
I think he is asking if the prl changes when you nand-restore. Simple answer no, that really the most common way AOSP users change them out.

I am one of the many unfamiliar with qpst so I am not sure about this method 100%.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mteezey:
I ended up just flashing the sense rom so I could get the drivers to install properly. I was mainly concerned that if I switched roms it would make me lose web and mms. I was enable to switch and force the prl. And restore my backup without losing anything. To my surprise everything workwd when I was on the sense rom without running any web scripts or metrooff. I'm new to the device so was concerned but once someone else agreed I could do it I went ahead. Thanks for checking my thread though

Yea. It took me a while to fine someone that did a full flash. I had to go to the hood.lol. I was gonna do the Houdini at the store by me but they wanted more than the other place for the full flash. I just wish we could add esn's to the data base on our own then we could just do it all ourselves.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j7jman:
haha.. I'm with you on that one, that'd be awesome.:cool:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mteezey:
In thier defense though they probably make it like that so they can try to limi the number of people useing devices with bad esn's. So its probably a discretionary thing for the stores if they want to do. And im sure in some cases the people just might not know how to. But if metro would just step up the quality of the devices people wouldnt have to flash from oter carriers. However the esteem is pretty sweet we just gotta wait for metro to make some money so they can lower the prices of their 4g handsets.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j7jman:
so true.. their devices are pretty damn expensive, and not really worth the money if you ask me.. personally i'd pick boost over metro because it seems so much easier to go from an incognito to an evo 4g or epic 4g than its is to do it from metro.. and the service in my area is awesome :D.. but hey you cant beat the pretty damn low price of a no contract provider :cool:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mteezey:
Yea I almost made the switch to boost when I bought this evo. But they wanted 130 to flash and had to wait a month for some reason till my number could be in it. I wanted it for 3g but whenever I'm really using my phone app wise or browser I'm on wifi anyway. I still might do it down the road only time will.
[HTC Sensation] wwfc:
Hey guys. I'm looking to buy a new phone this week, and i'm torn between the Sensation XE and the Samsung Galaxy S2. I can get them both free on a £30 per month contract with 900 mins, 5000 texts and 1Gb of data. So i'll post this on both the Sensation (since there is no XE board) and the SGS2 board. Hopefully someone on here has an XE, if not anyone with the normal Sensation please give some info as to how you've found it, same goes for owners of the SGS2.

Here is how i see it at the moment.

Screen

Sensation XE - 4.3" qHD 960x540 S-LCD

SGS2 - 4.3" Super AMOLED+ 400x800

This is one of the things i'm confused about, i mean, clearly the AMOLED display will have better contrast and viewing angles, but i'm slightly concerned about the resolution being only 480x800. On my Omnia 7 the super amoled 480x800 on only a 4" display looks pixelated. Could someone let me know whether the SGS2 uses the Pentile matrix or full RGB set-up?

Processor

Sensation XE - 1.5Ghz dual core Qualcomm MSM8260

SGS2 - 1.2Ghz dual core Exynos

The XE has a higher clock speed but I'm worried that sense 3.0 will slow it down. And also the Exynos is probably better than the Qualcomm.

RAM

Sensation XE - 768Mb

SGS2 - 1Gb

Clearly the SGS2 is better here.

Internal storage

Sensation XE - 4Gb (1Gb user accessible)

SGS2 - 16Gb/32Gb

Expandable Memory

Sensation XE - Micro SD, up to 32Gb

SGS2 - Micro SD, up to 32Gb

Dimensions

Sensation XE - 126.1 x 65.4 x 11.3 mm 151g

SGS2 - 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.49 mm 116g

Battery

Sensation XE - 1730Mah

SGS2 - 1650Mah

Camera

Sensation XE - 8MP, dual LED flash 2MP FF, 1080p video

SGS2 - 8MP, LED flash 0.3MP FF, 1080p video

So that's the specs, obviously in most categories the Sensation XE is the winner, but i would like to know what people who have actually used the phones think. There are some things other than the hardware which separate the two, such as Sense 3.0 on the XE, and Touchwiz on the SGS2. Not forgetting beats integration on the XE.

So that turned into a face off really, but still. What do you guys think? I'd love to here some suggestions as to which i should buy. I've had a Desire HD, rooted and S-Off'd obviously, and used sense 3.0 on that and it ran quite nicely, so a dual core processor should be even better. I'll stop now.

Look forwards to your responses guys ;) Alex
