I didn't know that link. Thanx so much.

However, it was just a deal of improving my knowledge at the time of modifying firmwares. Just to know if I could change that fixed widget as almost no one in Spain is aware of that AP News Rss.

If you somehow know what to modify, please, let me know.

Thanks again ;)

Wondering if someone could make an ICS theme with the ICS screen transition animations in it as well as the fancy rotations. All the themes ive seen so far are all nice but lacking these animations. Im running the noNamed rom currently just because of those slick animations but whenever i flash a theme the animations are gone. Thanks in advance.

Nice summary, thanks. Can I add a couple of points? Do not use CWM v6, it just times out when flashing with Odin. If you want to flash a new UK baseband you can download the latest one (I5500XWJP4) here http://www.multiupload.com/81IBI2MD0X - the one listed on the baseband page does not work.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] sparkyuiop:
Baseband and unlocking?

What does flashing the baseband achieve? I assume this will not unlock the phone?

I would also like to add that once people have loaded this ROM onto their Samsung G5 there are many safe ways to extract the 8 digit passcode number to unlock the phone to any network.

I had previously used Jc_master method to extract the passcode which worked on the first one and second one that I did but for some reason the second one failed to reboot after and became bricked. (This was done prior to flashing a non-samsung ROM on both phones and I believe it will not work on the Cyanogen ROM)

This method looks good but I have not yet tried it: method
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] dwl99:
Flashing a new baseband ensures that the GPS & phone will continue to work. Although you might want to do it only if anything doesn't work after you flash the ROM.

It isn't working, it will not detect the ops file despite my downloading it to C:/Samsung. Any advice?

Update:

I removed the .txt from the ops filename, now its working

Rad, clear and concise.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] sparkyuiop:
Thank You. I'm no expert at this so I'm pretty chuffed it's working out for people.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] sparkyuiop:
The OPS file should not be a text (.txt) extension (as you found out). One way to check it has the correct extension is to do this:

Open 'Computer' or 'My Computer'

At the top of the page click 'Organize' or 'View'

Select 'Folder and search options' or 'View'

Move the radio dot from 'Don't show hidden files, folders and drives' to 'Show hidden files, folders and drives'

Click 'Apply' then 'OK'

Go back to your OPS file and read it

Your OPS should read like this: EUROPA_v1.0.ops

If it reads: EUROPA_v1.0.ops.txt or EUROPA_v1.0.txt edit it so it looks like how it should read.

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] c_86:
i have having the same issues as well... flash CWM with odin, boots fine into CWM, flash CM7 and gapps, and just get the white android writing

i did the following steps:

1. flash CWM with odin

2. in recovery, wiped data, wiped cache, wiped dalvik, wiped battery stats

3. flashed CM7 and gapps

4. just for good measures i wipe cache and dalvik

4. reboot

doing that gets me into boot loop, just keeps giving me the white android writing over and over again.

(off topic here a bit)

tried to go back to stock with odin and still have bootloop with samsung writing on the screen.... so far the phones a brick... cannot get it to boot into any ROM at all

Just let you know that on my phone the camera is not working properly,when recording it shudders and if you switch back to photo mode it crashes.

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 PM ----------

I have put this rom on my phone twice now and it sounds like you are doing it wrong and missing the file "v1.7.2-hotfix1.zip"..

This is how i did it..

Started odin

This is how mine looks..

Remember to copy update-cm-7.1.0-galaxy5-v1.7.2-MADTEAM-signed.zip,v1.7.2-hotfix1.zip,gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip to your sd card,If you can't via phone use your card reader on your pc.

But all mine files are in the Samsung folder,so..

OPS - C:\Samsung\EUROPA_I5500_v1.0.ops

One Package - C:\Samsung\ClockworkMod-Galaxy5-v0.5.tar(ClockworkMod recovery manager)

Make sure everything is left ticked when starting odin just make sure one package is ticked..

switch phone off and plug in usb cable in phone(make sure you have installed the usb drivers,once in download mode you will see them installing wait for them to finish installing.)

Download mode - hold vol - down then middle button then off/on button and wait for download mode pic to come up.

you will see COM3 go orange in odin,press start and it will download ClockworkMod recovery manager to your phone and boot it..

Now wipe - data/Factory reset - yes

Now wipe - cache partition - yes

Now wipe - advanced - Dalvik cache - yes - back - Battery Stats - yes

You MUST install the three files in this exact order:

The main ROM package ‘update-cm-7.1.0-galaxy5-v1.7.2-MADTEAM-signed.zip’

The hotfix package ‘v1.7.2-hotfix1.zip’

The Google Apps package ‘gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip’

all files should be in ZIP format only. Don’t extract, keep it in ZIP format and store it on SD card.

on phone - ClockworkMod recovery manager - install zip from cdcard - choose zip from sdcard - click on each file and install it in order,once you have done that restart your phone and your done..

Well that how I did it and it worked every time..:D

Good luck..

P.S If anyone wants to show a video on how to do it let me know.

Video here.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYmTps4tdwU
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Benglian:
Looks like I bricked it...help please.

Tried this today and only got as far as attempting to install ClockworkMod. ODIN went to downloading recovery image and then hung there. Over an hour there. So I disconnected...now my phone is ummm...not working. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] brainvision:
It's obvious that it doesn't work anymore for now: I presume it shows up an interrupted link between the phone and PC..

So remove the battery, restart the PC and do it again.. maybe you miss the USB Samsung driver: try to reinstall them.. and use the 0.5 or 0.7 tar file for now

[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] flanco:
Hi there, it happend to me too today.

After digging a bit into the matter, i discovered i had an older baseband - comming from eclair...

anyway, you should go to http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/basebands/, and download the baseband of your country/region.

1. get latest 7zip from net

2. unzip the baseband file, you will get a .tar.md5 file, it's ok

3 load that file as "one package" in odin and start the install as you did with the rom image.

4. the device will reboot, and you'll see the dreaded black screen with android text, but this time the device will no longer restart. give it a minute or two, and you'll see the cyanogen screen. you're now good.

ps: you can do this baseband update even after you got the boot loop, just be sure to start the device with download mode.

good luck

If you get a bootloop you can use adb to get into recovery. Or just flash cwm recovery in Odin to get into recovery. Then you can flash any custom Rom you want in recovery.

Hello, What can I do if Odin does not detect my phone? It is in Download mode and connected but Odin never detects it, ODIN does not map the port? I'm using Windows 10

1. The problem seemed to be the Windows, in Windows 7 with Kies installed it downloaded some drivers updates from MS servers for the smartphone and for ODIN when I connected the phone in Downloading mode, after that ODIN could detect the device.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] waiters:
Last month I was throttled at about 3.5gb and I ended up at 14gb by the end of the month. This was my protest for being throttled. Mind you, the last 7 months usage I usually do 3.5-4gb.

This month I got my 5% warning and im sure will be throttled within the next few days. When that happens I plan to do 100gb

Will AT&T cancel my account ? is this a stupid way to protest? What do you guys think?

Tbh, I think my last month raised the top 5% because this month I got my first warning at 3.8gb…last month my first warning was at 3.2 and i was throttled at 3.5
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aznrice2k4:
No, I don't think they will because everytime you get close to the threshold you'll be throttled. I had a very long and wasteful talk with one of their representative.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jbecerril:
Throttled at GB and 13 days left. So far I have used more than 15 GB thanks to the APN switch. I don't care I am paying for unlimited data so nobody can tell me otherwise. AT&T can throttle my speed all they want but unlimited data is what we are paying for. Thank god for APN switch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ReggieSmith:
I am just trying to figure out how you guys can consume that much data each month. Are your phones streaming videos and music 24x7 or something? I am just curious as to what a typical day of use would be for you.

I also have unlimited data but I barely use 2GB's per month cause most places have wifi now and if I am out of the house with the family or friends, I TRY not to keep my face buried in my phone.

As far as your method of protest (@waiters), I personally think it IS stupid if you are going that far simply because they are throttling you. Just because you CAN do a thing, doesn't mean you SHOULD do a thing. Just my opinion.

But as you stated, you are guaranteed unlimited data, so have fun...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rosendo192000:
First of all to everyone ,

i haven't gotten my skyrocket yet until friday, but im sure its the same with the iphone .iv been with an iphone since 07 when it was first released , luckily i one of them in a handful that HAD the unlimited plan until last month . ATT will not cancel your data plan , they will just apply you with a new data plan (4gb a month) . i was warned months before my plan got changed . first started with sms from att then emails and lastlly and sms&email notifing me with the change.

so long story short ,ATT will just change your plan .most likely to you will get 4gb a months and 10$ after each gb .

BTW my choice to switch to android after so many years after being loyal apple customer was nothing more then to try out other operating systems Oh and 4G . especially after being disappointed of the iphone4s which wasnt much of a change from the iphone4. Dont get me wrong IOS is and wonderful system ,very user friendly . lets hope android turns good for me too as its community. Any tips or redirection to great forums like this one will be greatly appreciated

I upload a ton of pics and vids of the family...download roms..stream pandora and stream slingbox in the car or at restaraunts. I also tend to sit and watch youtube for hours at work. the wife and i average about 4gb a month each. we ise wifi when home

The real problems I have are that

1. last month i was throttled after being on vacation for three weeks ...so yeah heavy data usage

2. if we go out of town and have heavy data usage the first weekend of the month...bam...throttled for the rest of the month...super lame to be throttled because we used "more" than whoever they are comparing us to at the beginning of the cycle.

3. every notification I have received has been within an hour of streaming slingbox .. Seems fishy

3.
