Hi guys i have an international samsung galaxy s2. i have villian rom installed but i accidentally deleted my stock rom but, i did not calibrate the battery properly. i woul like to install litening rom but the method of flashing is different from the villian flashing(clockmod recovery). is it okay to install the new rom or will it wipe out my entire data? is it possible to recover my old apps after flashing? i need you help...
[Galaxy S II General] OrrPenn18:
Litening uses the ODIN method to flash!

Coming from another custom ROM, you have to do a factory reset, cache and dalvik cache wipe from CWM!

Recovering your old apps, leave the job to Titanium Backup! :)

I have the CSpire Samsung Galaxy S Showcase SCH-I500 with 2.3.5 stock gingerbread that is rooted using odin and windows command prompt method. Everything works great on it except the flashlight apps (tiny flashlight + led, torch, etc) won't work. I've tried using the camera's flash for pictures and it works but recording a video with the flash doesn't. Like I said, no flashlight apps work. I don't see how it could be a hardware problem because it does flash by taking pictures. Using flashlight apps previous to 2.3 on 2.1 eclair and 2.2 froyo worked fine. Maybe a simple script that could make it work properly on Gingerbread?

....I`ve got the same issue on my Galaxy W., (2.3.5.) both before and after rooting..........apps turn led on ,but not off though..needs force close. led never did work on video!
[General Questions and Answers] duoteknia:
Same situation here.... With froyo everything worked great. Updated to 2.3.5 via Kies mini, flashlight gone (only works by taking a photo, doesn't even work with video)

As a matter of fact, when I installed the "FLASHLIGHT:LED LIGHT" app, it gave me this error message:

"Your LED is not available, it may be because

1. Your device doesnt have a LED

2. Another application is using the resource"

This looks like a software bug, since the LED DOES work, but only at taking photos...

Any fixes out there please....??? :(

I have a different provider than you (mine is Pioneer Cellular). It seems as though Samsung pushed an update with the wrong driver/kernal/firmware for the LED. As of now I am unable to root my phone using superoneclick, and am wondering what other options may be. Also is there a way to "extract" the original .apk file out of the Froyo build?? As stated by others it worked fine before the Gingerbread update.

Myjello is not a troll. I have a Samsung Galaxy S on CSpire. SCH-I500.EI20 to be more specific. I am running stock rom rooted with a custom kernel and my led works fine. I am using leankernel.
[General Questions and Answers] turner78:
Could you please shed some light on how you did this or link to the info needed?? Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] SGSsudoer:
I downloaded the leankernel and flashed it using CWM recovery(red). The leankernel can be found on rootzwiki in the mesmerize/fasinate/showcase forum. Search for EI20 kernel or leankernel. This kernel will only work for the EI Showcase.

http://rootzwiki.com/forum/18-mesmerize-fascinate-showcase/

It's a zip file. Download and copy it to your sdcard.

Boot into recovery.

Choose flash from sdcard.

Choose the file named imoseyon_leanKernel_i500_voodoo_2.2.0.zip

Choose yes.

Your led flashlight should work with this kernel.
[General Questions and Answers] SGSsudoer:
If you want rooted you need to copy this root package to the SD card (http://dl.dropbox.co...oot_Package.zip

)

Odin this recovery (make sure repartition is NOT checked) ,*http://dl.dropbox.co...ecovery-ALL.tar

Boot into recovery, and flash the Root Package you put on the card and it should root EI20!!
[General Questions and Answers] Buff52:
Fixed mine

Just a note to say that I have fixed issue on my SG. Did an OTA update to 2.3.6. (with the help of "Voodo OTA" - which temporarily "unroots" phone, (so ota updates wont!)). Still had prob re led not turning off. Tried loads of flashlight apps, which didnt work properly until I found a widget called "LED light" which works fine.

Subsequently found via xda- " Notification toggle" - which has a built in toggle for flashlight which also works fine- and is a fantastic app in its own right.

Dont know if these will work for gingerbreads previous to 2.3.6., but worth a try.;)

p.s. - also led now comes on when filming , which it didnt before!

On Voltage Control with Entropy's Daily Driver, what I/O scheduler would you recommend? Also what voltage configuration? I'm looking for saving battery while staying at 1200MHz

Sent from my nice little phone... or should I say huge gigantic beast
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanElliott:
Here's the uv settings I use. As for the io schedulers id say bfq
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
I would say these are very extreme! My phone froze with 100 and 200 at 750. I would say keep them at 800 or 825. And don't forget to uncheck "set at boot" until they are stable.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] :
So what are the ideal ones. Mind posting a list for 1200 and OC.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
I would recommend being conservative. Take off "apply at boot", use for a couple hours and see how it goes. If there are no freezes whatsoever, set "apply at boot".

Also, SetCPU and voltage control app both of them allow to create a CWM zip file that would delete all their settings to let phone get back to default values, in case something goes wrong. Make sure to create those zips as a rollback option.

Here are what I use:

100: -150 = 800

200: -150 = 800

400: -125 = 925

800: -125 = 1075

(my phone is at max 800; works pretty good)

1200: -100 = 1175

1600: -100 = 1300
[Samsung Infuse 4G] B3tray3d:
yup

I use the antutu cpu master, voltage control costs money, cpu master is free

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangfu84:
Hey guys,

I currently have LeoMar Revolution ROM installed, so phone is rooted, Superuser works fine etc.

Want to start playing around with adb (am new to this) and have the device showing up when running 'adb devices' but i cannot get adb root? Although the device is rooted ok?

So question is (yes i searched but cant find the answer) are phone root and adb root different things?

If so how do i go about getting adb root so i can push apps etc from cmd line?

Thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrrPenn18:
When through cmd, you write su and press enter

If you get a $ sign, then you aren't adb rooted!

If you get a # sign, then you are adb rooted! :D

Umm, for adb root, I guess use superoneclick root and click shell root, you will get the # sign then! :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangfu84:
Thanks for quick reply :)

I run abd shell and then su and i do get the #.

id=0 so i have root in an 'abd shell' but i cant get root when i just put 'adb root'

Tried to adb push the apks manually in adb shell but adb push doesnt exist in shell?

But i am trying to run a batch file that pushes some hidden apks and i get the error "cannot run as root in production builds" when i run the batch file?

Edit: I may have had a secure kernel installed, will try another kernel and re-try. Is it possible to have su rights when booted up with a secure kernel? That would explain things ..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrrPenn18:
I have never tried doing pushing/pulling on stock/secure kernels ... so I can't tell you what's going wrong! :o
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangfu84:
Will have a play with flashing other kernels and try again.

I have the yellow triangle show up on boot so i thought i had an insecure kernel. But maybe it is just there from when i installed a previous ROM/insecure kernel?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrrPenn18:
Yellow triangle means you have a insecure kernel, maybe, Cf-root :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LouisJB:
"adb root" was only available on the original "Google dev phones" and requires special code somewhere on the phone (in the kernal?) to support it. When you root the phone it does not include the special code for "adb root" to work. I don't know what you need to do to get it working, but most people don't bother because there are other ways to do the same thing.

{Build:KI4, Version:1.3.4 (stock, rooted)}
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kangfu84:
Can i adb push apk's as su in an adb shell?

If so i guess i can push the apks i want to manually instead of using the batch file which is trying to get adb root.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Odia:
1. If you use one of my insecure kernels, adb will be running as root, issue "adb root" and it will reply "adb is already running as root"

2. Yes you can adb push when using su root.

3. Why do you want to push APKs? If its to install them, then just use adb install <FILE NAME>
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
adb root can be used when ro.debuggable is set to 1 in /default.prop

So I was going to reflash TSM Resurrection by going from ED05 to PWGB to TSM. While I was ODINing PWGB the screen just blacked and never came back on. I've tried all the various methods of getting it into dl mode without luck. What are the chances that I can go into a verison store and get a new phone under warranty? It was still technically using ED05 when I tried flashing PWGB.

If someone knows another way to get it into dl mode beside the unplug everything and then use odin+vol+usb let me know. I'm crushed by this brick =(

when i got my latest i500, it was in a similar situation (odin/heimdal wouldnt recognize it)

what eventually worked was putting in a different battery (i had/have 3) and leaving it with volume down and plugging in usb to heimdall (in linux...windows wouldnt see it with odin or heimdall)

for whatever reason it worked...wouldnt work w/ battery out or the battery it came with
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJ5150:
Yeah.. happened to me too. I was going to say what nitsuj17 said. Try DL mode with battery in or borrow a battery from a friend, or buy an extra one, can't hurt, and if Windows doesn't see it, use Linux. good luck

My question is what is meant by Debug update' on the Ice Cream Gingerbread (v1.2.4).

To my understanding 'debugging' is the process of looking for bugs in somthing.So is v1.2.4 a buggy release or what? What is meant debug update. If debugged update was stated that would be more understandable.
