Hello,

I just purchased an GT-i1900P orange, UK

Can i flash it with for example "I9100XXLPB" 4.0.3 ??

I know that I will lose NFC and I do not care.

But is it possible? or I will brick my phone?:confused:

Any help is appreciated.

Many thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Yes, it is possible. I9100 ROMs will indeed work on I9100P phones, but NFC won't work anymore... and it sounds like you already know this.

It's ALSO possible you can also brick your phone if you don't follow instructions.

ALL THAT SAID... If you are concerned about stability and NOT bricking your phone, then I suggest you do NOT flash ANY ICS based ROM, as it's not yet been officially released. That means any ICS based ROM is built off a leak, so stability is NOT guaranteed.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gjergji1:
thank you for the explanation. I appreciate it.

by the way, even the radios(modems) are compatible/flashable?

Hi,

I also have the GT-i1900P Orange UK version.

Can you tell me which ROM did you flash? I need to debrand that Orange stuff since I'm on giffgaff. Would love to have some latest generic Samsung firmware but I'm a bit lost when it comes to ROMs. So far I've managed to remove simlock using Samsung Galaxy S unlocker and flash "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KI3-42-v4.2-CWM4.zip".

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
You can flash any I9100 (NOTE: NOT an I9100G) firmware. Just know that you'll lose NFC if you do. But it looks like you already got this information in a different thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
The first thing anybody should be doing after rooting and before flashing an ICS BETA ROM is making an EFS backup(download release.zip)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1308546

and then making a Nandroid backup just incase you need to get back to your previous Firmware.Without these 2 things you could loose your phone cos your flashing a BETA ROM.

EDIT:A good kernel for ICS is LP6 as LPB seems to have more bugs in some ROMs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gjergji1:
Hello,

I have done exactly as you did. Just that I also backed up my EFS!! If you screw your EFS that you screw the phone so better safe than sorry.

Then I went on flashing I9100XXLPB with ODIN (there were three files).., the same way you flashed CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KI3-42-v4.2-CWM4.zip

So far so good! on 4.0.3 , performance is great

got 4027 on quadrant benchmark :D

absolutely no crashes yet..

thanks everyone for the help...

it seems easy now once you do it yourself..

Hey everyone!

On the rom I currently use there are about 20 apk's I have no need for. What I do is download the rom, and individually delete the apk's before flashing the rom. The thing is I flash quite often (cheeky, I know ;)) and this is getting quite frustrating.

Ideally I want a script that does this all for me. I found one but it seems be for running on the phone, after the apk's have been installed. Does anyone know how I can create a script for the PC that does this before I even install the rom?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Oh and here's the thread I found that looked relevant...

Over what OS?

If in Windows (or any M$ OS, incl. DOS) you can make a batch file.

My file is adjunted as example (modify as you like, put in the root dir -obviously to the unzipped ROM- and run. Rezip and maybe re-sign)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] 1234568:
Thank you. This is exactly the kind of thing I am after. If I had of been born just a few years earlier I would probably know all about batch scripts. Fortunately, I just missed the DOS days! :D

Anyway, I puzzled out / looked up the commands in the script you posted. Based on that I extracted the rom, then placed the batch file within it, so that the cd (current directory) command runs correctly.

Unfortunately this mucks up the signing on the rom. Do you re-sign your CM7 roms every time you do this or is there an easier way?

Edit: My PC is Win 7, 64bit, soon to be Win 8 Consumer Preview.

Edit: The roms do not need resigning.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jolufa:
I don't re-sign the ROM, simply flash again over Clockworkmod Recovery.. and work.

But, you can:

1) sign using Auto-Sign.... :-)

2) Click [Thanks]... :-P

Hey again. I was hoping to build on the script you kindly provided. At the moment I am using various alpha roms where the exact apk's present changes fairly often.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live4nyy:
After the initial boot, try just pulling the battery and booting again without flashing anything else (it could actually take a couple tries). Also, with Neutrino V2.2, do not do any wipes after flashing the ROM.

I have JuiceDefender and in order to use the functionality that will disable/enable background data it asks to install AOSP Helper. After several warnings I was along the way to installing. Next thing I get a black screen and my NT restarts.

After boot I was greeted with the stock launcher! I'm not sure if I lost root... I ran the search from stock home and went into the market. Go Launcher doesn't show as installed. I attempted to install it but it gets stuck in a loop saying unexpected error (in the status bar). I then get the option to uninstall it.

I've verified that I still have Root..

I was able to get into NT Hidden Settings and Force Stop AOSP Helper. I was then able to install Go Launcher. I did a reboot to verify if it would kill it, but didn't have any problems. Everything seems to be running as expected again.

also, i dont like sprints service, which i why i want to use verizons network. i can roam manually, but i want to make sure i am using verizon and not another carrier. how do i check which tower or carrier i am using.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
You need a sense 1.0 rom or a stock rooted rom to update prl and profile, you have to change your prl manually to force vzw 3g use it too much and sprint WILL boot you if you force roam normally you will only get 1x on whoever has the stronger signal in your area could be vzw could be usacellular could be metropcs could be any of sprints subsidiaries like virgin or boost manually changing your prl to a vzw one will guarantee vzw coverage BUT use too much data and get the boot use too many voice minutes get the boot and while using vzw they will use your anytime minutes no free mobile to mobile or nights and weekends so be prepared

prl

so how can i change my prl so it only roams on verizon?

if it is always roaming on verizon, will there be an additional charge for the 1x signal i will be getting?

i dont use that much 3g nor do i talk a lot. however, i text a lot! will that affect any additional charges?

i want to use vzw without any additional charges or having to get into any problems with sprint nor verizon with our contract.

[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
the answer is no, it won't.
[Atrix 4G General] chrisbpye:
Chances are, the CyanogenMod ROMs won't have a webtop. But really, you don't need it; CM9 already has landscape HDMI out, which works quite nicely with the Lapdock (there are still a few kinks to work out, but it's very usable). I actually prefer having Android running on the full screen rather than Motorola's hacked up Ubuntu webtop.

That being said, I am still planning to try out the full Ubuntu method that's been floating around for a bit the next time I have a day or two off.
[Atrix 4G General] exwannabe:
Even with the "full ubuntu mod", X is running off the standard /osh, so the odds are bad.

Do you know what are the precise reasons why the /osh stuff does not run with these roms?

If it is not lib/kernel issues then it is not that bad. All the moto glue is funky, but can be solved.

If it does require a recompile of the moto executables that is much more of a pain.

BTW, I really like having a real Linux desktop. Not even close to a big 'droid.
[Atrix 4G General] mfragoso:
Full ubuntu + webtop2sd

Hello

As far I know webtop depends on motoblur so any rom that is deblurred (any Cyanogen variant) cannot work with it

In my case I'm using the following combination and had been working very well:

-Gingermod ROM (wetdream didn't worked with this combination)

-webtop2sd 2.0.1

-full Ubuntu mod

-apt-get scripts depends fix,

I'm using a 32 GB sd card with a partition of 3 gb dedicated to webtop, currently I installed abiword, gnumeric, filezilla and rdesktop and all are working flawlessly!

I previously had stock Eclair 2.1update1 and flashed through CWM to Bionix-v 1.3.1 which I'm currently running. Now I want to know if I could flash CM 7.1.0.1 directly without Odining to stock. My current CWM is 2.5.1.3 and I don't want to mess with Odin or bootloaders. Is it Ok to flash CM7.1.0.1 with CWM from my current Bionix?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Yes. When you do it, make sure you flash CM7, IT WILL BOOTLOOP, this is normal. Pull the battery, boot back into recovery and then reflash CM7 again. Essentially flashing over itself. It does this bc of a CWR mismatch.

If you are going to go to CM7, why not go to Neo's ICS? Check it out. Very smooth, little bugs, RC came out today and plenty of support (CM team dropped Vibrant so no support from them. Us yes, them no).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lealgo:
Great! I'll give it a try soon.

And yes, I've been following Neo's ICS thread actually. But I'm proceeding slowly as my internet bandwidth is very limited, I live in the third world, so... For now I've got the CM7 ROM and planing to give it a shot.

Another thing I read in Neo's OP instructions is that one can get to flash his ROM going through CM7, even without flashing GB bootleaders with this route. I still can't understand the difference CM7 does make for not needing them, and I wonder why. But well... I think is one step at a time.

Thank you very much Woodrube.

After much trial and error i have found out how to get the best picts on this firmware. SEE WARNINGS BELLOW!!

Try this at your own risk. I have not had any problems.

Thanks to larut for the camera mods!

1. First goto this link and download the files called "larut camera.apk.rar".

Follow instructions on that page.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21336065&postcount=1

You then need to reboot!

2 Next goto this link and download the camera libraries.

http://developer.sonyericsson.com/w...ralibrariesforthe2011xperiaphones?cc=gb&lc=en

Unzip them and copy only the 3 files for the neo to the sd card.

Move the three files in the root /system on phone.

Change the permissions of ALL files.

Move the three files to /system/lib.

Reboot phone and you are done!

Before you start this make a copy of the following files:

/system/app

CameraExtensionPermission.apk

SemcCameraUI.apk

/system/lib

libcald_pal.so

libcamera.so

libcameralight.so

Use at your own risk! I have been using this for over a month and no problems. You must have Root to do this!
