No problem figured it out in the end. Not use to .rar files but quick search helped me out.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] andynroid:
Can I just flash the ROM only without the script for speed ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Yes it can

But it will not have really optimized setting

Wonder, has lack of memory management
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] andynroid:
Running the script can be done all from the phone ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] fender90:
Yeah! This message used to be too short.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] snwman:
Having a small problem with the optimized rom. Cannot extract part 2 of the file that downloaded. Part 1 no problem.

I have tried it on my phone by androzip but wont do it. Tried extracting the files then on my laptop using rarextractfrog and i get a message of it saying part 2 is a multipart file. So then i downloaded winrar and now its sayin error "You need to the extraction from a previous volume to unpack"

So any help
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] robin0800:
In rar all you do is make sure part 1 and part 2 are in the same directory. Start rar on part 1 and it will automatically pull part 2 and you will end up with the two parts together in a new folder.

And now I'm not be able to download the second part..nothing there's, on that adress...

Sent from another space
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Hmm...

That known bugs from firmware

For the gtalk, try to uninstall and install it again

For the market, that called "connection time out" from the google connection it self

I give you Market app with speed improvement

Maybe can help

http://www.box.com/s/ue4ms7humefzd9sj8zm2

BTW have you wipe out Market cache

In Application > Manage Application > Market

Clear cache

Reboot
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] snwman:
Still cant extract files even with 7-zip. Keeps saying crc error on first download and then data error on second download. Thats running the two rar files at the same time so just going to leave it..

Will try run the v6 s/c instead. Anyone know any other script that i can download to run the script on my phone. Cant download script manager from the market, keeps sayin my device is not compatible
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] stpdkid:
Yup..i wipe out market cache..

Ok..i'll try your market..
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zion609:
Rio Saputro, you've cooked this rom right?

I want to try it as other 2 custom rom I tried brings A LOT of problems to my galaxy w.

I'll reply with my review later..

Edit: all good and suprisingly, very fast too.

But I have problems here. Media scanner did not detect any songs or videos in my galaxy w. Any idea why?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Hi

I don't found any problem with media especially with music file

Where do you put the music files? Is that on your external sd card? Maybe your external sd card has an error.

Try to format it first and put the files back..

Have you shut down your phone after flashing?

And turn it on...

Hmm...

Did you do wipe data and cache before flashing ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zion609:
Already wipe all data and cache before flashing. Seems to be an error with my sdcard I think. Will reply back to see if it is working. Btw, nice ROM actually. The best so far for me :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Thanks

Can you help to give review for this roms :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zion609:
Ok media scanner works good now. I don't know why it is not working before. Everything running smooth. About the review, can't write anything long since I've got to go back to school today (stupid school). Will write later I think.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] irishpancake:
Hi Rio.....:)

I DL this from your site

and it is just nandroid of someone's phone to restore with CWM??

Now, I expected CWM flash able zip.

Just to know, will my MAC be OK after this??

And will IMEI be same......

perhaps other personal stuff on existing phone will be overwritten by this nandroid restore.

I just don't know.....is why I ask questions :D
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Hi,

It probably not possible to flash only with update.zip

update.zip just only for UPDATE your system thats why it call update.zip

Meanwhile the CMW i provide wipe & flash everything including previous basic rom

In SG3 section. the image that we provide is IMG file not update.zip

I hope it clear

BTW if you wanna get best rom you must do your best right, not a simple way ;)

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Hi All,

I need your review and feedback about my ROM

For who already try it, please give some feedback

Your feedback useful for ROM development

BTW can you suggest me the best firmware (Eropa) version for base

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] irishpancake:
Rio, I think you misunderstand me....

I know all about flashing Custom ROM's

I have done so lot's of times on my previous device, using CWM, and flashing new ROM via the install Zip from SD Card option:

This is normal way, AFAIK, to install ROM's, and other stuff, which allows users to choose ZIP from SD Card......

This tutorial gives an idea of what I mean

I am not referring to just "Update.zip".....

I have checked out the SG3 section, in Dev section, and ROM's there seem to be in CWM zip format, or some via ODIN??

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=868

So, when I ask about your Nandroid, I have in mind what you say here:

Is my MAC address OK, and is the IMEI also OK??

As, you say, I am Restoring another phone's back-up, so it is a legitimate question, and I don't know the answer.....

But it's important, as Networks will not allow duplicate IMEI, like in cloned handsets, and will possibly block the phone.

I think the MAC thing is OK, as this are associated only with my phone, and is not changed by nandroid restore, but there may be other stuff???

I ask these questions coz I cannot ever remember flashing a new ROM by nandroid restore, and it is not usual.

Thanx man :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Rio Saputro:
Hihi.. :D

IMEI & MAC address is fine but i dont know it changed or not,

It should not changed if we just flash it

Correct me if i'm wrong ;)

Thanks man

Because to many request for this ROM

This tread moved to developer section
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lanboy:
Hello again. So He my deal. I am on BML stock froyo from Spint and I am also rooted and have Latest Rom Manager pro with Clockworkmod 5.0.2.7. But I also have ACSRecovery v1.0.0.5 CWM4 Based when i hold the power, camera, and down buttons.

I am a bit confused is this ok or should I be only on Clockworkmod 5.0.2.7 (the one with the hat) when holding all three buttons. I saw a video that gbking77 said that ASCRecovery v.1.0.0.5 was old and did not make good backups. Which one should I be on because its confusing.

Also Got a new 32gb PNY card and wanted to know if there is anything special I should do to it. Should I just go to froyo and do a simple format or go to ASCRecovery and to a Advanced/Partion SD Card then what?

What is the best ext setting 128m, 256m, 512m, 1024m, 2048m, 4096m?

What is the best swap size 0m, 32m, 64m, 128m, 256m?

I need the most size for many apps and also speed so please suggest correct setting, Thanks.

Is the ext where apps go when you use app2sd?

What does swap do and does andriod use swap?

Do I need to do any of this if I am going to use a Gingerbread Custom Rom on MTD? When I do Install MTD will it set my SD card the way it wants?

Wow I know I am asking alot, I hope I can get your help because I have searched around but can't find a definitive anwswer.

Thanks for your Support m8 =)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Yes I suggest flashing cwm 5.0.2.7 via odin or with your acs recovery (it will overwrite it)... when moving to mtd it is not neccessary to do anything to your sd card... also I do not recommend using acs recovery to convert to mtd... it does not play nice and many people have reported errors when using it to convert over...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Exactly what Flast said, and you will gain close to 200MB of app space on your phone when switching to MTD, plus you still have the abiltiy to move apps with Android built-in app mover, apps2sd, or Titanium or others. They move to the regular formatted space on the sd card without the need for any partitions.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Bah ACS jk if your on bml stick with acs if your moving to mtd stay away from it ^^
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Cwm is our officially supported recovery for a reason... stick with cwm 5.0.2.7 whether your on bml or mtd...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Really this again.... cwm5 was created with the help of of the creator of acs recovery5 can we please bury this cwm is official for a reason statement and think why its official
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
It was only partially collaborated on and ported by the guy who made the ACS recovery and CWM 5.0.2.7 is official and is supported by ROM manager and is the standard for most android phones so please stop feeling offended when someone says this. ACS recovery should not be used anymore. It was made before MTD conversions and before CWM 5.027. Just because the same guy made CWM 2.5.1 should you use it?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
No no you misunderstood..... reguardless if "slightly" supported the making he still knows the source code and his doesn't deviate from it only difference is the color and two options.... yes I agree if on mtd its a no go but on bml is much better (imo) I'm not offending just annoyed. And your analogy is irrelevant we are talking about both new things not older ;)

The ovbious answer would be no because its older not the same age and not "modded"

End of disscusion I don't usually argue but it isn't right to bash a recovery because it was made by someone else....
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
You are absolutely right.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lanboy:
Partitions settings?

Thanks for your civil debating, I just used cwm-5.0.2.7-epic4g.zip in ACSRecovery and did the update. Now I am down with the hat just to be on the official side plus its compatitble with Rom Manager and I don't have to do 2 backups, one with ACS and one Clockworkmod like I was doing before because I had my doubts.

So your saying if I go to a MTD rom I don't need to worry about partitions?

I have been using a program called sd card speed and it has these settings like 2048 for best performance and 4096 which are the same in both ASCRecovery v.1.0.0.5 and Clockworkmod 5.0.2.7. I was wondering if doing this partition with the 4096m value would speed up read/write access to the sd card?

What about swap thing?

Don't see much in explanation about these features in any of the videos. Should I be bothered with this stuff or just format and just use normal. By the way it a PNY 32gb Class 10 card so I am just looking to pimp the speed off of it with the right settings.

Thanks for Your Support m8 =)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
There is currently very little support for swap partitions to gain use as RAM. Bonsai did it but haven't really seen it since. So no, don't worry about it right now.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Just format and use normally... unless its a brand new card there really sint a need to format either... just flash the mtd rom and you're good to go...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmericanJedi001:
Gents, I don't think you're understanding lanboy. He's asking about setting the SD card cache size, which definitely is beneficial, especially with a class 10 card! Lanboy, you'll need to experiment to see what sizes are optimal for you. The optimal size depends on many factors, including ROM, SD card, size of files you'll be most often copying, etc. Use SD Tools or SD Card Tester, both available for free in the market, to test and see which cache size is best for you. I'm inclined to recommend SD Card Tester because it allows you to pick specifically where to test, and also what size test file to use. It's also prettier looking! ;)

Concerning a swap file, I think that's a feature that other phones sometimes use, but I haven't seen any talk of that for the Epic. The SD card cache and a swap file located on your SD card are two separate things:

SD card cache size setting: this sets the size of the read/write buffer for the SD card in KB.

Swap file on SD card: this would be like your swap-file on your computer, and it's an "overflow" buffer for your system's RAM. It increases the total memory available, but the swap file is much slower to read/write than RAM. More can be temporarily stored in memory, but it will be slower to access anything that is in the swap file on the SD card than to access what's in RAM.

Lastly, if you guys are gonna reformat your SD cards I highly recommend you use SD Formatter (Currently 3.1) rather than Windows' built-in formatter.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lanboy:
Cool

Thanks AmericanJedi001 for your detailed answer. I appreciate all the input as well but It was hard to decipher all those settings in Clockworkmod under advanced/sd partition. Maybe I should have changed the title to Partitioning instead of format.

I most likely will go for the most just to see (Cache 4096, Swap 256) because yes this is a NEW sdcard and I just format it with Clockworkmod and do want every bit of tweak on a class 10 SDHC.

I will try out those apps recommended like SD Formatter 3.1 for SDSDHCSDXC because it even supports the newer SDXC. I just got a new card reader for a new pc I am building and it sounds cool to try...

Many Thanks m8's and Cheers =)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MariusOX:
Okay, so I flashed the 1.32 RUU to be able to upgrade my DHD up to 3.12.405. so that I could install the unlockable HBOOT.

According to HTC this unlocked HBOOT should let you flash custom ROMs.

I went to to htcdev.com and followed their steps to unlock my bootloader, which worked flawlessly..

Except when i flash custom ROMs the phone hangs on splashscreen. I've tried full wipe and clean install, I've even tried restoring backed up ROMs.

Any one else have simlar problems? or a solution?

anything that may help?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulake:
And do you also know that after flashing a custom ROM the first boot might take a loooong time?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MariusOX:
OFC. I've waited over 20 minutes for the thing to boot but nothing happens.

Only thing i can think of is that it might be that it is S-ON and not S-OFF.

also i can recover the backed up stock ROM.

_____________________________________________________________________________

I got Advanced ACE Hack Kit to degrade it so now I'm able to S-OFF, super CID and everything again:D

All I had to do was to relock the bootloader and run the AAHK ;)

Need help ASAP as is my work phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
The main thing is you can get into download mode. Get stock firmware from here if your carrier is listed, if not get country specific firmware here and flash that in Odin.

Edit - I just re-read your post & realised your PC won't recognise your phone. Uninstall/reinstall Kies so you have the drivers in place for Odin to recognise the phone (drivers might be corrupt ?). Make sure you kill off Kies in task manager before you attempt to flash stock firmware in Odin. If you find the PC still won't recognise your phone try a different USB cable/different USB ports (I know there's only one port on my laptop Odin works on), failing that try a different PC/different version of Windoze. And if all that doesn't work, you might want to try Heimdall. Search the forum, plenty of posts on how to use it (never used it myself so I can't guide you in the use of same).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
1) Yes.

2) Yes. Absolutely. No reason why it wouldn't be "stable", tho obviously your experience with any given rom/kernel may vary/differ from my experience of same.

3) No

4) The best backup solution for non-rooted phones I could find was MyBackup Pro, but in all honesty you're unlikely to have anything go wrong rooting your phone with CF Root. Best way to go would be to root your phone, then backup using Ti/do a Nandroid backup in CW Recovery before you do anything else, then flash any rom/kernel you want after that. This will give you a backup of your phone pretty much in its "original state" (minus your original kernel tho, obviously) you can go back to if you do find you have problems installing a new rom/if the rom doesn't work as well as you want it to.

You've done well with the steps you've outlined to get to where you want to go, they're very well planned/thought out :) If you follow those, I'd be surprised if you have any problems.

Edit - bit more detail
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarol:
Thank you very much!

I just read that speedmod automatically installs root. I assume this means that I can use odin install speedmod on an unrooted phone?

If so, where does that leave my EFS folder?

Edit: Yes I can.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Might want to ask that one on the Speedmod thread. I used Speedmod briefly a while back but my phone was already rooted so I have no idea. I would have thought the first page of the thread would be pretty clear about any instructions.

The EFS thing is pretty simple, root your phone & use Hellcat's kTool to make a backup, store a copy of the backup on your external SD card & a copy on your PC/elsewhere.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarol:
Why did you switch from speedmod?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Doesn't work with CM/Miui :) There weren't enough pluses with the other roms I'd tried w/Speedmod to warrant sticking with the kernel. So I went back to Miui w/Siyah.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarol:
BUMP to reflect updated OP
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
4) Not really before rooting, use speedmod to root your current rom then use titanium backup to backup *USER* apps

6a) Flash speedmod first to get root todo the following

1) use ktool to backup your EFS

2) backup user apps with titanium backup

3) make a nandroid from CWM recovery

4) Use smsbackup+ to backup sms to gmail (doesnt need root but useful app anyway)

6b) when you flash the rom it will come with its own kernel, that will replace speedmod, just flash speedmod again over the top, you wont lose the rom.

7) Yes, easiest way to get rid of it and keep speedmod/CWM is to buy a USB jig.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Ok, nearly everything is said.

Just a "small" additional suggestion:

There is a description of how to get rid of yellow triangle after flashing an insecure kernel in Intratech's first post of his Official Firmware thread, in Chainfire's second post of his CF-Root thread, and there is another way of preventing the yellow triangle and the incrementation of the binary counter (other than using a USB Jig):

As you still have XWKI4 stock ROM, you are able to root your phone using the zergRush exploit. (You can find a short description in Intratech's first post of his Official Firmware thread and a link to the corresponding zergRush thread.)

Then you can buy (Chainfire's) Mobile Odin from the Market.

Using the paid version of Mobile Odin and having a rooted phone, you are able to flash stock ROMs (such as XILA2) with the EverRoot option, which allows you to remain root - without the yellow triangle and without an incremented binary counter.

With Mobile Odin you can easily flash custom kernels (such as SpeedMod) as well, after flashing the stock ROM you want to have (XILA2).

Good luck and don't forget to make a backup (as soon as you have rooted your phone) !
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbarol:
