I support this REQ. I don't want to have to see my gangsta face each time I turn the screen on :)

I agree, dont like other people looking at me looking at myself.... Makes me look like a douche.

I dont think the face alignment would be an issue. Practice makes perfect.

might also be a suggestion that on the fake pattern lock screen, there was a faint face outline..like really dark grey or something.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlancealotx:
ok, there used to be a nice how-to, can't find that one anymore but here is the status.

Device is rooted, and I read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1274337. I booted into ODIN and see the device.

I am looking at blazers ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1363071) as it seems the newest.

I am coming from an EVO, CWM, did everything that way, but this is all new. The older post had CWM mod as the loader, but not sure what is the preferred (is it more user) method of installing ROM's. The other problem is blazers thread says to follow the install instructions, but there are none and I am an ODIN noob.

So, is it a simple click PIT, point at the zip and go? I am also concerned since with CWM I could do a full backup 1st, etc. where as I said, this is all new.

Feel like a damn noob again :(

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
Once you have cm installed you just flash roms that way now just like you did on your evo its that easy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlancealotx:
ok, well that's what I was hoping for, so now I will search for installing CWM since the thread (thought it was sticikied) was not on top, but at least that was the good news I was hoping for.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
If u loom in the dev section there is a sticky on how to root without Odin and it will install cm for u. Look for that one its at the top and then u should be good to go. If u need more help just let me know I can help u out. I would post the link but I'm my touchpad

The thread ewalk is referring to is: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1342728

All thanks to sfhub for making it so easy. I personally have tried avoiding Odin as much as possible as there are many threads of people screwing up their phones by not being careful with Odin...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlancealotx:
HA, that's the page I remember. Was having a problem eariler but that was due to the exploit was only for the EK31, I have the E02.

When I saw that old skool DOS screen I knew it was good, not to mention the screenshot showed the EK02 kernel :)

So with that, I did install that version, flashed it and BAM, got my CW5. Man what a site for sore eyes ... with that I am doing a FULL backup now and downloading a ROM to play with.

Thanks to everyone with this thread. Looking forward to the next good questions ;)

Will this work? My TP won't be here until Tuesday to try it out myself.

GPS over BT: app running on phone, allows phone GPS to act as the GPS receiver, and sends this info over BT to the TP.

Bluetooth GPS mouse: app running on TP, enable "mock locations" in settings.

I would test this with Google Maps, Sygic, etc, running on TP.

This would allow my wifi-only TP to utilize my phone's GPS, much the same way I will use my rooted HTC EVO for its data connection while in a vehicle. If this works, I will be good to go.

Yep, that looks like a good one too. However, I think I'd prefer a solution that uses only Bluetooth since I think that will preserve battery life on the phone.

Is it possible to add 3d converter??
[LG Optimus 3D] abo_mara7:
You mean on CM. No, it is not possible, and even you can't make use of all 3D functionalities because CM Rom does not use LG Real 3D Framewoek.

So, regarding 3D part, you can only take 3D pictures but you can't view them.
[LG Optimus 3D] KurdX:
That is not correct, you can view the photos aswell, haven't tried it yet and if you can't do it atm then you will soon. Lol if you can open a 3d video (which I can with the latest nightly) then it's possible with photos. They will add the support so we wont need LG Real 3D Framework.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Fredplex:
crossix,

...thanks a bunch for this mod, it works great, I've tested a number of apps and scenarios and so far so good.

I reviewed the original install_recovery.sh and noticed that it's there for some sort of firmware / recovery updates. ...so since we replaced the script I'm wondering if it will prevent future firmware upgrades, or more importantly could it prevent an emergency restore / recovery.

Perhaps merging your script with the original would be beneficial?

...any thoughts on this?

Thanks again for your effort on this, FredT
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] crossix:
I don't forsee any issues, unless you get an ota update, then you'll need to redo this mod.

The system runs /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on boot and would normally check the recovery partition for files changed outside of an ota update (ie viruses or cwm). If a file gets changed this script would run at boot and restore it's origional recovery.

Normally in order to get cwm or any other custom recovery to "stick" you would need to delete this file (or delete it's contents) so that your modded recovery wouldn't be overwritten on the next boot.

An OTA update will overwrite the install-recovery.sh file and you may have to follow the above instructions again (or it may even break my mod). I'm still running the origional stock rom (3.2) and haven't tested this mod on the newer versions.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Fredplex:

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] expose11:
I don't have install_recovery.sh I have a init_goldfish.sh

And the etc folder you are talking about, is it the one in system or the one just under the main root of the device (/etc or /system/etc)? I only bring that up because I thought it odd I had two "almost" identical etc folders!?! One in /system and one under /.

Either way, I don't have a install_recovery.sh file. only the init_goldfish.sh file. Any thoughts on this?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] crossix:
/etc is actually a symlink to /system/etc so they are one in the same.

What Build is your tab running? (find out by tapping the time in the bottom right corner of the screen and then push the little lines on the right and tap system, scroll down to about tablet and look for build number.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] m2b999:
It worked like a charm!!!!

I just have one question, what happens to the files/apps on internal memory? So basically it just swapped it witb external sd?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] crossix:
Yup, you can just copy all of the contents from /mnt/external_sd back to /mnt/sdcard and everything should be good.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] crossix:
apparently they are having some success getting this to work with the a500 so assuming you can find a working root method for the a101, this should work with it as well.

One problem - I needed to move to a larger drive due to Audible - but now that I'm moved over, Audible is complaining "Please insert SD Card" and then exiting! :)

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] coleonyx:
which froyo?AOSP? 29 kernel or 32 kernel ?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] andreas__:
exactly ^^ i would use the .32 version - much faster
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] nutterbg:
I would agree - go for the .32 version. It's quite stable for me, and quite fast. The only issue I seem to encounter is that the battery never stops charging when it reaches 99%, it just says "Charging (99%)", and never "Charged". One other thing, sometimes wifi starts from max. the third try, instead of from the first, but it's really no problem. Other than that, everything is fine and the phone feels quick. Also don't go for version 6 - install v5, service pack 1, service pack 2 and the newest zice fixes and it's perfect.:)

Hello (I assume) friendly fellow SGSIIE4GT owners!

New owner, coming from the Evo4G section most recently, been rooting n flashing HTCs for quite some time now, started with the G1, then Hero, finally the Evo...

HTCs offerings this year I found to be lackluster, so on a few recommendations from other longtime flashers, decided to dive into a SGSII, and holyfreakingcrap, this phone is fast/responsive/beautiful...

About to dive in, root this baby today, been over the wiki a bit, the procedure seems straight forward enough...

But have to admit, I don't understand much about the acronyms, procedures, nomenclature re: this phone. zImage? ODIN? Modems, wha? No AmonRa? All the ROM threads start with different sets of info (in the title), and mean little to me. (As an example, it seemed unclear to me that if I root, and then flash a BootImg/zImage + CWM (EK02), will it wipe my current data/apps/setup...?)

I am a fast learner, but don't want to spend three days poking around here before I start having fun, especially since the actual rooting method seems easy enough. ;)

So basically, just wondering if any longstanding members might point me to a few threads I might have missed, general advice I should be aware of, points of warning, a "best ROM" or two?

Thanks in advance for reading what I am sure is a tiresome noob thread. ;-)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VikingNor:
Where do i find this a2sd option, and do i start it in recovery mode? and another question,

cm7/r2 hboot what is the different? and i see there is 1 IMG file and 1 .Zip file.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shankly1985:
Dont use a windows program to partition a sd card for android. Use Gparted or 4ext recovery. You dont need a swap partition. If you still on stock when installing the RoM select custom install and then select app2sd option. If you have CM7/r2 Hboot you can then use the xd2sdx.

CM7/r2 is a Nand partition that makes the data part bigger then stock, on stock after fresh install of a RoM you left with 150MB for apps on CM7/r2 its 287mb.

On xd2sdx version all system files stay on this Nand data and your ext4 becomes the storage data so when you look at phone storage you will see what ever your ext4 size is 1.5GB free
