Procedure to recover data on Alpha 8

Lot of us are wiping data thru Recovery before flashing Alpha 8. For folks who always do a Nandroid Back-up before flashing. in this case....i.e. before flashing Alpha 8 with new Kernel, will NOT be able to do a Advance Restore of Data which was on the phone with Alpha7. You will get a .md5 mismatch error, this is due to the new version of Recovery (CWM) that comes with the Alpha 8 or at least that's what I think.

Made a small change in the below procedure to ensure that you move into Alpha 8 but also restore the data you had with Alpha7....

1) Download ROM from Google Code

2) Transfer to phone

3) Boot into recovery

4) WIPE EVERYTHING

5) Flash Latest Kernel.

6) Reboot into recovery

7) Flash ROM

Flash ALPHA7 Kernel - Reboot Recovery - Advance Restore - Data

8) Flash the Latest ALPHA 8 kernel again, Reboot Recovery and then Reboot Phone

***Rest of the procedure...Rooting, Enabling 3G etc remains as is.....

9) Download Script Manager from Android Market

10) Navigate to system/etc/init.d

11) Click 99enable3g and run as script

12) Set to run as root, at boot and at network change.

EDIT: Alpha 8 wasn't worth the time n sweat.....too laggy and below par performance....reverted to quick n nice Alpha 7.....!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarKprince87:
sincerely my first impressions? Alpha 7 was better then Alpha 8....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mr8t24u:
I have as of yet tried alpha 8, wat was the reason behind this conclusion :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Magnumutz:
onecosmic is THE ONE!

Thanks for your awesome work!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] DarKprince87:
all seems to be less smooth then A7, and market was stucked on superuser update. Anyway I've rebooted in recovery, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and reboot. Now the market iussue seems to be solved.... waiting to stress it more and let you know
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mr8t24u:
Clearly your impressions are entirely different :) is 8 better than 7?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mr8t24u:
Will flash and report back once battery is charged :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] soudy1994:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tomm1:
r u using jvs or jvt. If u r using jvt use jvs I had similar problem but resolved it using jvs
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fahad123:
first i flashed it from cm7... had the problem.. then i flashed it from JVT base.. still the problem existed.. did the problem really solve for you when you flashed it from JVS?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tomm1:
yes I am now running Alpha 8 and almost everything works.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] r4mios:
I installed alpha8, touch doesn't work, i flashed kernel again without any wipe, just kernel package one more time and it works flawlessly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fahad123:
okay i will give it a shot later.. i am back on gingerbread for now

---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:49 PM ----------

i don't really know what's the problem with me.. never had this problem on alpha 7!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mathijs727:
Just follow the tuts then everything will work, is it that hard?

If it's slow after first boot: reboot, everything will be much faster (about same speed as alpha 7)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MrThreeChains:
Someone please check this problem

BTW: 3G again not working :( Maybe because i installed JVT modem in alpha 7 because the whole mobile network connection doesnt worked?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] fahad123:
i did follow that!! .. it says reflash the kernel.. which i did like almost 10 times.. but touch screen problem ain't fixed for me in aplha 8.. well never mind I'm back on gingerbread now
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] harvy:
First of all Kudos to the Devs! I think this is the world record in developing such a big port! Alpha 8 is running smooth but feels more laggy than alpha 7. My only question is: Is there really no File manager in ICS? It's the pain for somebody pasting very long wifi pass from file since 3g is not working out of the box. Maybe you can add a simple file manager in your build if there's none in AOSP? Also is there really no Power control in the top drop bar in AOSP?

Thanks for all your hard work - you're the best!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lazy Rich:
I checked it myself and even a reflash couldn't solve the problem. I think that is the main reason why the rom feels much more laggy than alpha 7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rickou:
hi there !!

i have read many post about this alpha 8, then i decide to flash it on my I9000...

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MrThreeChains:
Flash kernel AT FIRST! Then ROM,then kernel again. If it still has bootloop reflash kernel,then rom,then kernel again.

Oh and btw reboot after first flashing the new kernel. It has a new CWM version.

Alpha8 Running 100% CPU

The slowness most perople experience seems to come from some process running at 100% load constantly.

In logcat I see that Garbage Collection is going insane.

And every GC the downloads in Market grind to a halt..

Some people are reporting media process is the cause,

It doesn't show up in my watcher, however I do belief it is the cause.

When I run top through ADB I notice very high wait on IO.

And logcat show multiple errors like:

E/MetadataRetrieverClient( 111): failed to extract an album art

I allready cleared Dalvik and Cache, but this doesn't help.

I'll let the device run some time longer to see if the mediascan completes..

Just my observation...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Gizmo123:

People may start putting the Hate on me.. But this rls is lagging like nothing else.. and i can not for the Love of me get 3g working.. not only that but for some reason it keeps reseting data connection (script is runing over and over , even when connected to wifi) nots of "wait / close" program messages.

Hey guys,

i am on Alpha7.

What i would add in the tut (since i installed A7 on three phones with JVT and Simpin off):

1. When you get stuck at Fugumod Bootlogo longer than 5min,pull.Battery and Fullwipe.

2. No Phone service - Flash JVT Modem

Had those issues on all 3 phones so maybe put it into tut :)

Flash Player is not installable for me.

TitaniumBackup.fcs at batch operations.

But overall this is just amazing and my daily driver for now

Issues with Alpha 8

Battery Drain on some devices

Front camerea flickering, distorted image

Problems with WLAN (with open networks)

Black areas in pictures and videos are grainy green looking

Symlink for grep is still missing

slow market on some devices

3G still only works after manual Bugfix (Guide HERE)

video Studio still not working correctly

Some Camera Settings bring a FC

@juxli125

I was mainly referring to the only bug that really bugs me in Alpha8, that my phone is filled with green blocks in dark areas of the picture. Btw, the greyish-green blocks are not gone in Alpha7, but they are just much less pronounced there. I can also see the grey areas around letters on startup logo and the Fugu fish. Graphics are not perfect in any of these ICS versions, thats for sure. It's weird that no one is bothered by this...

Hi thx for the rom :)

I just flash alpha8 came from CM7 nighty and as for now findings are:

It is not having the new design running apps manager under the options button ??

I was looking in to it (I use HP touchpad so I started to enjoy more swiping of gestures ) nothing biggy thou ;)

{sorry i dig in to it it is under long home button press my fault}

The video playback choppy, I tried to play something recorded on

CM7 with the phone nothing side loaded and it is choppy.

The boot took me 3 kernnel and 2 rom flashes to obtain but it was succesfull.

As for alpha it is working rather good it is choppy hire and there but it is an Alpha .

And I rather say it is a great one :)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tatsuya79:
Can't really see clearly on this picture, but it seems to be the problem with voodoo colors hack: too much gamma in the dark greys -> jpeg artifacts are visible.

It has to be changed at kernel level and I guess that's not the priority now.

When ICS port will become more stable you will have different kernels to chose from.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xchasa:
Or just a kernel.

I used semaphore 1.81 as I had that on computer already.

Ok, tried that but friend's computer somehow would not show the connection in odin. Usb driver is installed as well. I guess like one of the dev said, the flashing will break the partition.

Ok thanks for your answer.

Did you try the gralloc.s5pc110.so from Nexus S port (We scream combo beta) ? Same name but the size is bigger =146ko (In GalaxyComb and galnet port the size is only 18,6ko)

Maybe you can obtain better result with that.
