So can you get custom roms for the 120L?

The 80 character limit for text messages is a little annoying...

I've just rooted the 120L and the texts seem a little bit slow, on U+ but I'm not sure if this is due to rooting it...
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Kremata:
I have the E120L bought on Taobao in China. The problem with the sms is it can only send 80 characters. If you send a sms with less than 80 char. there is no problem. Also any 3rd party software (like Go sms) will not work. I solved the problem by rooting it and flashing the Teamleader v1.1 ROM. now I can send 160 char. sms, but still no 3rd party software works. Using Titanium backup to remove all useless Chinese apps. There is still some minor problem but now it's a super great phone that has all the HD features working fine.

BTW I'm Canadian living in China. I can order things on Taobao for you.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Spazdarn:
What minor problems do you have? and are they caused by the root/rom? Just wanna now if it's worth my while if they're miniscule errors.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] lucarn:
Today after the last reinstallation of "go sms pro" i have got a step forward with sms issue.

Don't know how but i am able to send sms till 147 characters or over 160 (2 sms).

All the rest is perfect.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] lucarn:
I was wandering how to update this device because the first day i had the phone i clicked on System update and i got some upgrading installed.

Now trying to do it again phone replays me: "failed to software update. Use a SKT USIM to progress update." and using Kies it says that "device does not support software upgrade by kies"

Jeez, People with E120S said SMS do not have any problem....

Try maunal setup??
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
Most likely will, but without a sms fix, it's not much use imo. ICS is cool and I did put up with the stock messaging app for a while, but after I found out I wasn't receiving every text, it just wasn't worth it.

What country are you in Algian? I'm in Australia and I was on stock ICS on my E120S and found out after a few days that I didn't receive some text messages. I sent 20 separate texts to myself from my brother phones over 2 days, and I didnt receive 3 of them, although on his phone it was shown as sent.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Algian:
I' m totally agree with you. I' m in Turkey, I can reveive every sms but not MMS . The question is why we have this issues. Because of samsung or operators ?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
Great News for E120S users--Android 4.0.4

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B90aBBkpJZ8taVU5Zkhkc0FFWWM

I sent and received 2 images and 2 messages over 160 char with stock messaging app and gosmspro and both worked,

This is the program I used to download the file, https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B90aBBkpJZ8tMGhYRlpJUEEzaFE but I forgot where I got it from, it might be from the site itself.

So once you downloaded the file, I first wipe data/factory reset and wiped cache, then I just flashed the md5 file. When the phone first booted, I waited 10 minutes but it never made it to the home screen, so I reinserted the battery. 5 minutes after it still didnt get past the loading screen so I reinserted again, then it worked.

No problems so far, but only tried it for around 10 minutes.

Credit to this guy for the rom, http://115.com/file/c26fxipb#FoxRomV2-Final.zip Dunno if he just uploaded it or created
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
So how is the ROM so far?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
I tried sending and receiving sms and mms with 7 other people today with gosmspro and it all worked.

Yea everything is working the same as on Teamleader 1.3. Kies or Google Maps won't update, I guess I'll try grab the apk from somewhere.

Hasn't crashed or froze so far.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Algian:
Noob question is coming... So can I install this rom to rooted 4.0.4 e120s?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
I don't see why not, I had rooted 2.3.6 e120s before I tried this rom. I'm a noob myself, I just followed the instructions from other people's posts. People always say to do nandroid backup, yet I still don't know what that is.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] neerajganga:
nandroid backup is basically backing up ur rom

go to recovery -> backup and restore -> Backup

and ur done

this is called a nandroid backup
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Cshitiz:

[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Algian:
I can' t see "restore and backup" section. You mean menu which opens when you press power and volume buttons right?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Could you upload the ROM on Google docs? I know....I'm lazy to translate and register on that Chinese site. Lol

[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Thanks brotha! Wish me luck!

EDIT: so I just flash with Odin? I hate to be a nag but a quick step by step would help me bro. Thanks again.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
The steps I did was

Extract the zip file

Go into recovery and wiipe data and cache

Flash md5 file with odin

I never did any backup,restore or anything. I just manually reinstalled the apps again.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Cshitiz:
HELP!!! HELP!!!!!! Need all the stock apps of SHV-E120L

I just flashed a ROM XTGT 2.3 from a chinese website... After I flashed it there was no keyboard as well. Today I found out that there are so many things things missing like talk. music player, video player and all. Even most of the widgets are missing. So, any one who has installed the stock ROM please post all the apk files in the the folder

/system/apps

in a zip file here. waiting for your reply guys..

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Flashed the rom

Well I followed everything to the letter and am my second batt pull after 15 minutes. Nothing yet. Crossing my fingers. Everything on Odin went great and got the Pass sign. Not sure whats wrong? Phone wont boot to recovery.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cbr150r:
copy any keyboard (.apk file) to sd card. Install it from there.

After that, you can have keyboard and to Playstore to do any other things.

I think that ROM is very lite and fast. I love that one.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Cshitiz:
I know it but I still want it

Yeah but I can't install Talk and some other apps so I hope you guys can post all the apks so that i can choose and install in one by one..Especially I am hoping to copy some widgets to the system folder.....
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
Has it worked yet? Overall including taking the battery out twice, I waited 20+ minutes for it to boot up for the first time. I took the battery out because I thought it was stuck on the loading screen since it was taking ages.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
I left it for 45 minutes after 5 10 minute tries. My phone is stuck in boot loop.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
My only guess would be to try it fully wipe and try it again. Maybe redownload the file.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Thanks I'll try again
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Reflashed the ROM. Wiped and Reset. Got it working. It works great but some apps don't work. Mostly GMail, Google Drive, Updated version of Kies. Oh well everything else works great.

EDIT: the battery icon is ugly as hell. Full transparency of the notification bar is ugly too. When you launch an app...the main background color will be the color of the notification bar.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Algian:
I' m crazy about launchers these days. I found Lg Ui 3.0 as an apk file. It' s awesome. Problem is i can' t add widgets. It's about the phone or is there something that i should do?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
You need to push them to system/apps and set permissions. Everything works including themes supplied.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Algian:
So i need root right? :eek: Lg UI is very nice so I will root my phone when I come home.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Yes you need to root cause you will need to use root explorer to push it and to change permissions.

FoxROM 4.0.4 for E120S

Just tried FoxROM 4.0.4 for E120S and its working 100%! SMS is not limited anymore bloat apps also removed!
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] claud001:
This is great news. Any further feedback would be immensely appreciated.

Any issues with: email/ MMS/SMS ?

Does anyone have positive/negative info about the above ROM? Ive been using Team Leader 1.3 and i'm begining to have fc errors with email.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] cloud1111:
Glad to hear it's working. I personally like the battery icon lol. What issues do you have with Google Drive and Gmail?

[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] chickencubes:
No negative feedback :laugh:. The ROMS seems normal and no issues so far. Just having a bug with the flash light on the quick panel settings. The phone hangs about 2-3 secs when witching it off. Using gmail and no problem so far. not sure with the mms because im not using it :p
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Google drive says "oops yadadada yadada" never opens. I messed up Kies cause I uninstalled it and tried to install from the play store,DL from XDA and the back up of the one I uninstalled. Says wrong signature. I got GMail to work. Other than that only the notification bar being transparent and that UGLY battery icon. Lol sorry but its butt ugly. Gmap don't update either.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
Please do a full wipe and factory reset after installing the ROM. Not just before.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Algian:
I have a question about rooting procedure. It says after flashing recovery, flash superuser.zip. How can i do that?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:
You flash recovery thru Odin....after go into recovery mode and flash the su.zip that you saved on the SD or just DL from the Play Store.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] claud001:
Sounds like the FoxROM 4.0.4 is the answer.

.How does the FoxROM rate against Team Leader 1.3 ?

Also can anyone direct me to a link where I can download the ROM?
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] youngpic48:

Thanks for your answer. I mean how to flash superuser.zip? Custom recovery or stock recovery which opens by volume buttons and power button. And can i copy the superuser.zip to phones memory? I don't have a Sd card for now.
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] Chris.cheers81:
Wow, this Fox Rom looks great so far.

Flashed .md5 through Odin,

bootlooped (wanted to make sure that the ROM was going to flash before I did a full reset),

back into recovery, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, full reset,

redo .md5 through Odin,

installed SuperUser (just from market),

installed Titanium Backup,

restored everything (better Keyboard 8 first, the stock one is horrid), and it's running great.

In fact I don't have to tell GoSMSPro to split the messages over 160 chars into 2 parts like I did with TeamLeader.

This is on E120S BTW and it is so great to be back on ICS after stepping down when I "upgraded" from a normal S2 to this HD LTE one. Never going to go grey market again (unless it's a Nexus).
[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] claud001:
I'm having trouble with flashing the FoxRom. Ive got a bootloop going on after the flash of FoxRom .tar.md5 with Odin. Ive flashed it over Team Leader 1.3

Ive gone back into recovery and wiped davlik, wiped cache, and successfully flashed the FoxRom again- but still a boot loop. Any Ideas on how to resolve this?

[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] claud001:
very happy with the FoxRom. Rock solid. Nice and clean- minimal bloatware. A great competitor to S3.

Only issue ive had is ( and with stock GingerBread and ICS ROM ) the stock email app- i cant find settings to enable it to retain more than 1-2 days worth of emails ( only about 10-15 emails )

Try flashing the rom again but wipe data and cache BEFORE and AFTER flashing the rom.

Make sure your phone is the E120S version.

Hi,

I followed the instruction of TeamLeader 1.3 for E120L to fix the sms issue and I ended up with error saying that the xxxx...android.phone stop and the phone look like in a loop now. Any idea how to fix it? Can I download the stock rom for E120L from tegrak and install it would make my phone go back to original config or there are other step to do?

Hope to see helpful response from you guys.

[Galaxy S II HD LTE Android Development] 4mako:
Thanks for your input guys... I was able to download sorg's files. For the loop issue any reset did not fix the issue then i flash my phone again using TL 1.3 and then flash it with stock uf11 firmware and boom it is back to original with no crashing of phone. Then i flash it using Sorg's version and now it is working very well althouhg it is one firmware version behind (ue11).

Things that i found not working after Sorg's firmware:

In the phone ABout menu, software update is no longer visible.

Kies do not detect my phone when i connect it to my laptop.

This mean, i need to do a manual upgrade via odin for future firmware releases.

You shouldn't have a problem flashing earlier versions of Android, just make sure you wipe data and cache.

ALZip software can compress and extract the EGG file format.

Bandizip software can extract the EGG file format.

Yes, it is 4.0.4. You can send 160 character with FoxROM but in stock rom you can' t. It is just a stock samsung rom. :)

Flashed the zip file through recovery. Works fine. Only things I noticed was that when you pull down the notification bar, it is see-through, battery icon is changed to a normal battery, the icons of gallery and root explorer are different, and instead of saying foxrom it says zhibin99 s3. The quick panel icons also look a little nicer.

I think I'm going to go back to Foxrom. The transparent notification bar is too annoying for me. I like the normal battery icon instead of the android one though.
