[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkie405:
I've searched and searched and searched and can't find this info. anywhere. I found lots of post where people say they have fixed wimax in their ports, but of course they never share how. I assume that all the dev help was done in PM. All the PMing of dev info. around here makes it very hard to search for help or "how tos" on issues. I'm hoping that someone will be willing to take the time to help me out here.

I've been working on a Speedy port. I know it's old software at this point, but since this is my first port, I figured I'd start out with something easier than 3.5.

Because Speedy is a Sprint phone and naturally has 4g capability, I assume that all the needed files are already in there. I further assume that I must just need to edit the correct file/files in order to get it to work on an EVO. Just for ****es and giggles I've replaced all the Speedy wimax files with Supersonic wimax files, but still a no go.

These are all the files I've switched out so far:

From system/bin:

dhcpcd

sequansd

setWiMAXPropDaemond

getWiMaxPropDeamond

wimax_mtd

wimax_uart

wimaxAddRoute

wimaxConfigInterface

wimaxDhcpRelease

wimaxDhcpRenew

wimaxDumpKmsg

wimaxDumpLastKmsg

wimaxDumpLogcat

from system/etc:

the entire "wimax" directory

from system/lib/modules:

sequans_sdio.ko

wimaxdbg.ko

wimaxuart.ko

I think that's all of them. I read somewhere that it involves changing some code in a few files, but of course, again, they didn't mention which files to look at to make these changes.

Can anyone tell me where I should be looking? I've done lots and lots of comparisons on different files between my ROM and a couple other ROMs that have wimax working, but I'm just missing it somewhere.

I don't think I need someone to explain it detail, I just need someone to tell me where exactly I should be looking.

Many thanks in advance for anyone will to help me out on this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metaphysical_calamity:
Alot more to it then the files. Alot of its hardcoded into framework and jar files. If it was easy enough it would be done. A few of us have been trying to get into 3.5 but no luck has really been made yet. In time we will figure it out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharkie405:
Yes, I realize that it's a lot more than just replacing files. I only mentioned that because I assumed somebody was going to mention those files. I could also list everything else I've looked into, but I figured I probably wouldn't get any help anyway so why bother.

I'm not a noob to this. As I stated I'm working on a speedy port in which most everything works except for 4g. That in and of itself should be enough to show that I would at least realize it's not going to be as easy as replacing files. I've had to open things like framework.jar many times and mess with smalis and what not. This why I didn't ask for a detailed explanantion but more of a where should I start looking.

As stated, I'm not using Sense 3.5 at the moment, but Sense 2.1. There are many 2.1 ROMs with working 4g, so the answer has already been discovered. It's not in any public forums or anything that I can find.

If I need to post a link to my ROM here so that someone will take me seriously, I'd be more than happy to.

Couldnt this be done by downloading the source from HTCDEV and just porting over the wimax driver?
[Galaxy S II General] aceofclubs:
Great info buddy.

Can someone please make this a sticky?
[Galaxy S II General] marcadam:
Very good summary of how the jig works, definitely needs to be stickied so noobs have less chance of missing it.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Nicely written and I agree, we should get this stickied.
[Galaxy S II General] Czechroo:
Absolutely fantastic summary even I the owner of this handy device and know how to use it.

Thanx for compiling this! *favorite on tapatalk*
[Galaxy S II General] mattcfk:
thank you very much guys! :) actually you guys also did a very great job, especially intratech. i totally respect you :D.

whatever info i need, i can just use search function and i get the all the info i need. however, this (usb jig) is the only missing info here. its not totally missing, but you definitely need to search very hard and combine everything before it start make sense.

since everyone here is so helpful, i was thinking, why not i try to contribute a bit by compiling the info.

if there is any updates or whatsoever, just let me know, i will update it so other ppl can get every info in one place. let's continue with the helping culture here. ;)

not to forget, HO HO HO, MERRY MERRY XMAS!!!:cool::cool::cool:
[Galaxy S II General] gsw5700:
As I understand, the only way to brick your phone is when flashing bootloaders, so its a little scary. So basically, flash new firmware, then flash older bootloaders to remove triangle? Do we lose anything by going back to older bl? I would say only do this if taking phone back to shop, is this a reasonable statement

[Galaxy S II General] mrsaccess:
Nice guide but you didn't write how we use the jig.

I mean, should we connect it to the device with the phone powered on? Should the phone be powered down? Do we have to go through a menu or something? :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] ahwai84:
wondering is it work for i9100G model as well?
[Galaxy S II General] NXUS:
I tried to apply the old bootloader intratech had in his thread with Odin, flashed passed correctly and still nothing. When the phone is turned off and the jig is inserted, nothing happens (bought it on Ebay) , how can I check the bootloader version? Anything else I can do?

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Simply power off the phone and when she's completely turned off just stick the Jig in her, all the way in, and simply wait for the it to turn her on and put her into download mode. It will auto reset the binary counter. From here just pull it out of her and hold down the power button and it will turn her off after a few seconds.

I don't have access to a G model but don't try to flash the bootloader from the international model (the one in this thread) or you'll have a nice brick.

If you stick the Jig in her when she's turned off and she doesn't get turned on into download mode then your Jig is faulty.
[Galaxy S II General] mattcfk:
oh, yeah! thanks mrsaccess for pointing that out. how can i miss that! :eek:

i will re-edit and compile it. :p

edit: btw, forget to thanks intratech for helping me out ^^

[Galaxy S II General] MagicMan3:
Thanks for the great write up, I was beginning to think I had a bad jig as it would go into download mode but not reset the counter!

I'm curious on this as well, is there any benefit to flashing the new bootloader after the counter is reset?
[Galaxy S II General] mattcfk:
personally, i don't really bother with the triangle thing and the counter thing.

unless you wanna bring back your phone to Samsung for warranty, then it would be better to get everything back to its original. As they would have record all your version (kernel, bootloader, etc.) in their database, and they might void ur warranty if version is incorrect. (they might have different policies for different countries)

unless you have Samsung frens to confirm you that they don't really check on the bootloader version.;)
[Galaxy S II General] AllSeeyinEye:
For me, possible future Samsung support is the reason I bought a jig. This guide is excellent!
[Galaxy S II General] mattcfk:
thank you very much. i am glad to know that i am providing helpful info to all. :D

however, all 99.9% effort should remain credit back to the people who crack it. i am just doing 0.1% effort to compile all the info into one place, for reference.:D
[Galaxy S II General] raz2058:
Thank you for the explanation, very useful
[Galaxy S II General] InStake:
Hi I was wondering if there is a way to set back my galaxy s2 (Bell: I-9100M) bootloader back. I currently have the plain I-9100 bootloader right now.. But I would like to change that.. Please reply!
[Galaxy S II General] mattcfk:
Is it giving you any trouble?

Currently I don't have bell version of bootloader. Sorry I can't help you.

I am using international version. I guess most of the members here too. As long as it is not giving you any trouble, it will be fine.

Otherwise, you have to wait for the bootloader to be uploaded.
[Galaxy S II General] Crystawth:
Hey, i don't recall which post exactly i saw it in, I'm pretty sure I saw it in this thread...

I have a Samsung Stratosphere SCH-I405, I flashed the stock rom and kernel back to the phone and now i'm left with the bootloader, and the recovery...

I flashed the stock recovery via heimdall using the command

heimdall flash --recovery recovery.bin

and I got this... The CWM recovery is still on the phone. I took the recovery.bin from DemoManMLS stock EI2 Recovery. I'm not sure if I'm missing something or not.

As for the Binary count, I've made a Jig which turns the phone on into download mode, but of course, it doesn't reset the counter... Now I read somewhere that another person, with a stratosphere has succesfully flashed to the old bootloader to clear the count, and flashed back to the new one.

I'm quite anxious about flashing the bootloader to begin with, and I was wanting to make sure... does the bootloaders provided here work on the stratosphere? or is there another seperate bootloader I would need to use..

I have to return the phone because the screen came unglued, and i wanted to send it back completely stock.

Flash old bootloader from intratechs original firmware thread (and many other places) and the jig will work.

[Galaxy S II General] sumitpathak:
No need to flash old bootloaders..you can use Triangle away apk from chainfire:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494114
[Galaxy S II General] aceofclubs:
Yes but this is the jig thread not the other.

Triangle away does work but if you read the bold red text in the devs 1st post he does say that the jig is the preferred method.

Anyway as alway there is a risk either way and ultimately it's the users responsibility and risk.

Jig worked like a charm

I tried to load the old boot loaders from the first post and it didn't change the boot for my ics so the jig would work because it still had the nag screen. I ended up using the bootloader from this post: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1087033&d=1338082079

I turned off the phone removed the battery replaced the battery and inserted the jig and bye bye binary count.

Thank-you for the tutorial. I can send my phone for warranty now!!! :D
[Galaxy S II General] InStake:
So do I just place this in odin?

which one?

and this will replace the i-9100 international bootloader to the bell bootloader?
[Galaxy S II General] UnwiredDroid:
During the first release of ICS on Galaxy S II I root it with ChainFire's Kernel then installed the Old Bootloader that came from ICS and I think it was Intratech's bootloader.

Will the USB Jig work on the Galaxy S3?
[Galaxy S II General] mattcfk:
i am not sure about galaxy s3, coz not planning to change my phone yet. i am more than happy with my s2 currently ^^

however, my piece of mind is that it will not work as they might put different version of boot loader.

USB Jig Works On ICS - Thanks!

Thanks man this worked for me. Once i figure out how to give thanks i will ! I am totally new to everything but have spend hours reading the forums catching up with what i need to know. I think this method for using the USB Jig on ICS should be added to the original post as it took me reading from page 1 - 20 to find my answer (a different bootloader that works "GT-I9100M OLD SBL"). I now have no triangle on start up and my counter back to zero! (ICS V4.0.4) ps yes i changed my kernal in case anyone advises me, the noob, to do so before i hard brick my phone lol :)

Bro this is the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 forum and not the Galaxy Y S5360 forum. The usb jig does not work on the Galaxy Y, I know this because I owned that phone once ;)

EDIT: Sorry I was thinking about reseting the bin counter, usb jig will force it into download mode bro. But it is very hard to brick that device, unless you messed around with the boot loader

[Galaxy S II General] metalblade:
hey

i just read ur post about the jig.

i have some questions, and if u can, pls help me.

i bought a Galaxy S2 4 weeks ago and i face the SOD - sleep of death problem. (the phone wont wake up from sleep mode, or it turns itslef off while it is idling.... and i cannot do anything to it unless i remove the battery). i scowered the web for answers and finaly it brought me here. some dude on GsmArena said "it works with USB jig". in other words, the SOD problem can be fixed with this jig. i didnt know what this jig was `till i read ur post. so i see that it is used for 3 purposes, mainly for entering download mode..... but all in all, it serves the same "purpose". Flashing ur device, and being able to install a custom ROM; right?

i also asked samsung about my problem... seeing that people worldwide are facing this (and nobody cared, especialy Samsung)... and they said that all S2 phones delivered after November 2012 were shiped with PCB problems. so the only SOLUTION would be, "replacing the phones PCB"... if they are telling the truth.

what i want to know, is how can the USB jig can help me...and all the other unfortunate samsung clients... if the phone has a Hardware problem; when the jigs main purpose is, entering download mode and clearing the boot and etc. (more like softwear issues).

if this realy is the solution to this SOD problem, pls let me know (step by step), and if it isnt..... have u heard of this "phenomenon"? what are ur thoughts? (in fact, anyones thoughts are welcomed). BTW, the phone came with ICS 4.0.4 (i hadnt rooted it, or tinkered with it in any way)

thanx

On the new bootloader for i9100 - does it bring you to download mode WITHOUT resetting the counter or will it not bring you to download mode at all?

It should bring them all to download mode (s2 s3 s4 tab3 etc ) but it wont reset counter on anything not running old bootloader.
[Galaxy S II General] Jsilver73:
screen completely distorted

My wife came home with her i9100 yesterday - no cracked screen but the screen is completely distorted - lines going across etc - can't see any of the screen at all, however the processors still seem to be working (as I can see a little tiny bit of the status bar and it responds to touch) also when out of battery it made alert sound.

The phone is still in warranty but rooted - so I would really like to try to zero the flash counter and flash stock firmware so sammy is non the wiser and fixes it.

I've read all the posts (thanks) re using the jig to reset the counter - my questions are:

Will this work ok coming from jb = I think most of what I have read is about ics (my wifes phone is on latest neat rom)

How can I tell if the flash counter is zero without being able to see the phone?

EDIT: I can access download mode through adb easily enough (it doesn't seem to work with 3 button combo) so can use odin obviously :)
[Galaxy S II General] superkoal:
- First you use adb pull to backup all the files from the internal sd.

- Then you go and find the OLD BOOTLOADER .tar here on xda,

- flash it (follow instructions from xda thread regarding options in odin, as far is i remember you must NOT repartition!)

- switch it off

- put in the usb jig

- wait for the boot sound, your flash counter should now be reset

- get a stock firmware from sammobile (one from your provider and maybe also one that can be upgraded to via kies)

- flash it, again look for instructions from people who know better, but i think this time with repartition

- send in your phone for repair

a few general things:

1) you can use your mhl adapter and connect your phone to a tv or monitor to see whats on the screen

2) you can use adb key events to simulate key presses - i tried to use triangleaway this way

3) I don't think there is a way to chek if your flash counter was reset without display...

4) 3 button combo download mode needs to be confirmed by pressing volume up after boot ;)
