[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaosbane:
Ok, so for the last few days I've been wanting to downgrade back to gingerbread from an ICS ROM. I ran into a few problems with the phone booting into recovery every time and then giving me errors about being unable to mount certain paths.

So I flashed CM7 which worked fine, but in the end I wanted to flash back to a stock rom.

Just a quick tip for those that would like to go back to a stock ROM but are getting these errors: flash a stock rom from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1102881 from Download mode and when it attempts to reboot, force it back into Download mode again and re-flash the same rom once again.

This fixed my issues so I thought I'd share it :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huzi7868:
why would you go back to stock rom i heard its slow etc
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beardedwonder:
Pretty sure that's bad advice. You should flash back to gingerbread through ODIN (pit and repartition) because the file systems and partitions are completely different in CM.

I.e. Flash stock GB (odin + repartition), boot, flash kernel (odin) then flash custom ROM (in CWM)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismarkham1982:
Yeah your supposed to flash back to GB using odin not the recovery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
This is the best and cleanest way to do it.

viber

im going back to gingerbread becouse viber dont work on dark knight 2.1 any solusions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaosbane:
Ahh my mistake, I realise now that I wrote recovery instead of "download". But the gist of the post is to use download mode to flash the original firmware twice (If you followed the link, you would see instructions to flash via Odin).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron_my:
I think any ggb base rom viber is working. Flashing back to stock rom just for viber is a bit too much. There is lots of nice and fast ggb base custom rom around

4.0.4 dark knight 3 with cm9 runs perfect on my i9000
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trickxx:
This worked for me.. thankyou!

I reverted back to Gingerbread because of the battery drain from playing mp3's on ICS. Have tried OneCosmic's and TeamHacksung's with several different kernels and none spared my battery.

Everything was on default for the testing phase and my battery was empty after 4 hours of playing mp3's.. yeah, I travel long distances in the train for work.

So unfortunately back to Gingerbread but my battery life is back to normal :)

Send me your services.jar ill try it out
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] pchandra:
how should i change the .line xxx so that it wont effect the whole file and does these lines effect the whole smali ? and i'm trying to use this guide to mod the htc explorer 2.3.5 stock rom.Does this work for this rom?

And will this give crt off also? as changing the value in bools.xml of framework-res.apk doesn't work in this rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
i dnt think tats gonna be a Problem.... if any problem exists make sure the line numbers r in ascending order.... :-P

also.... ur android.policy and framework has to been patched already to get the CRT OFF workin... cause its already been patched to samsung ROM's :):)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] pchandra:
so these lines added to the services.jar trigger both the off and on animation?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
Nop.. they only add an additional codec to enable CRT ON... But if u hav a deeper study at your file u would notice even how to enable CRT OFF ( If it isnt present in your ROM's source :P ) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Exile1975:
trying to follow these directions, but when i compile classes.dex i get the error:

so i am tring to figure out what this refers to.

any help is great. thanks for the awesome guide

EDIT:

nevermind, found it. user error
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Exile1975:
So I've followed the steps and cleared my dalvik and cache, but after a reboot nothing changes. CRT off works fine. How can I find out why? I'm using a mostly stock 2.3.6 on a Samsung admire. Any help is much appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
If u had followed all the steps which i had put up thn u r sure to hav CRT ON :good:

If not just recheck the file of your's :D
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Exile1975:
An earlier post mentions patching Android policy. Maybe this is my problem, where can i find info on this? Believe me, other than changing what you said to, every thing is copy and paste, no mistakes. Used NotePad++ for editing so i know it's good. My one question would be the very first line number has to be changed. Should i change that to the current number of the first line and renumber everything after that, or number it as the line before what's already there?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Spz0:
Can you elaborate on this more? It is pretty vague.

I can see one value that does not match up that should be changed in the step listed here:

But as for anything else, Im not sure.

I see in the last step (the one with all the tiny mods) that your unmodded codes .line numbers differ from the modded version. are we to change those numbers to match?

The reason Im asking, is because I have made the modifications, and CRT on is still not working.

Also, in your first step, with the code:

search for these two lines

.field static final ANIM_STEPS:I = 0xf
.field static final AUTOBRIGHTNESS_ANIM_STEPS:I = 0x3c

And Replace With

.field static final ANIM_STEPS:I = 0xa
.field static final AUTOBRIGHTNESS_ANIM_STEPS:I = 0xf

My code reads slightly different:

.field static final ANIM_STEPS:I = 0x1

.field static final AUTOBRIGHTNESS_ANIM_STEPS:I = 0x3c

Do I still change to match your steps?

Thanks in advance!

~Spz0
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
Do not mtch the line numbers as they are compiler generated only make changes to the modifications that i made....

Also in your case, The given code

field static final ANIM_STEPS:I = 0x1

is indeed differnt from the code i gave as it is for G-Fit

may be try converting the .dex to.jar files and check it with the respective dalvik code :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Spz0:
Ok

So just to reiterate for clarity, the only .line value to modify would be in this step:

I would match 2078 to go in sequence with my specific generated .line values?

Sorry for the nubbish sounding question but Im not sure what you mean by converting the .dex to .jar .

Thanks for Responding so quickly m8. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
nop dnt go in for line numbrs.... Check the public run method in youtlr code and paste the code which i gave

btw.... There r dex 2 jar converters which converts dalvik codes to basic java language :-D
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Spz0:
K, I'll keep pluggin away at it m8. :)

btw.. did you port these instructions from another device, or from scratch. If so, would you have a link to the other instructions (the more guides, the better to reference. ;) )

Thanks again!!
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Spz0:
Ok, I think I may have got it, but I believe my screen on delay is too long (I vaguely saw the crt on animation once when turning the screen on).

Any clues as to how to reduce this delay time?

**edit:

or to increase the animation delay of the crt on?

Thanks in advance. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Exile1975:
im wondering if my rom includes the crt on animation png files, or is that not the way this works? if it is indeed controlled by pictures, which file would i decompile to see if they exist?

also, what exactly should i look for in my logcat? i dont see anything mentioning an error of any sort, but then again, unless it said "error" i might not know what i was looking at.

thanks again for any help
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
Cool.. So u mean u got the CRT ON to work.... ???

btw... i referred frm an indonesian forum (dont hav the link now sorry :( )

and for the CRT animation speed evn i'm searchin for it.... would let u know if i know it :D
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] wilfredcool007:
The CRT ON and OFF doent hav any png's as such and logcats for such things wont help :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Spz0:
Yes I did get it working. But the lock screen delay is preventing me from seeing it. Hopefully we can find a delay adjustment for the animation. :-)

Thanks so much for your help so far m8 :-)

[Android Apps and Games] SoWhy:
Hi there,

first off, sorry if this is in the right forum. Please move it to the right one in that case.

Then:

I originally posted this in the Apex Launcher thread but some users pointed out (correctly) that this is probably an idea that should deserve its own app and is not limited to Apex alone. Here goes:

Android has the great ability that you can change launchers quite freely, allowing you to change the look and feel of the main GUI with a few clicks. Unfortunately, every launcher has a different way to store their settings and when you switch to a new one, you will lose the settings from the old one. I personally switched from GO Launcher EX to Nova Launcher when I upgraded my Desire to ICS but would now like to switch to Apex - but after taking all the time and effort to recreate half a dozen of folders with 50+ apps sorted, I don't feel like doing that again.

My idea would thus be to have an app that can detect a backup you made with one launcher (almost all of them allow backups these days) and convert it to the backup-format of another launcher, allowing the user to import it into the new launcher. That way stuff like folders and settings could be transferred, allowing people to switch launchers more easily.

I'm not a dev, so I have no idea whether this is possible and if so, how hard it would be to develop it, but I wanted to request it here in case someone might be able to do it. :)

TIA

SoWhy
[Android Apps and Games] frankonia:
Nova-Launcher already does it!

Even if this is an older request: I would also appreciate, if there would be an app which can do that. And: In general this conversion is for sure possible. The Nova-Launcher already has this function of transferring already implemented. But it would be better, if there's an independant app for this, 'cause at the moment it's only "one way", from another launcher to Nova, but not the other way round.

Hi guys,

For the first time I wanna root my Note and would like to do it cleanly. I would like to root my Note, use custom ROMs and be able in the future to come back to a stock ROM which is upgradable via KIES.

My first question is to know if the process of downgrading to an older firmware could corrupt the EFS folder. (using PC odin)

2. Will it wipe my phone? In sammobile they don't specify if the older ROMs are wipe or non-wipe.

Thx
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richy99:
1- it shouldnt do, i have downgraded using pc odin without an issue

2 - get a non wipe rom fromthe list in the sticky in the dev section
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rossygnol:
Thx for your reply, I would also like to know:

1. If after rooting the older rom my phone will be upgradable via (recognised by) KIES.

2. If the answer of the question is YES, then what kind of back up should I do in order to be able get my phone at that "state" later on, after having tried other custom ROMs.

I'm trying to be more cautious because with my older i9000, I couldn't get it recognised by KIES after flashing different custom ROMs. My EFS folder was corrupted (empty indeed) and there was unfortunately no way back in my knowledge...

it might be but if you update via kies you will lose root

Could somebody else give me a more convincing answer?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
Yes you can root your Device. Here

Just make sure you are in rootable ROM, in case if you are not in rootable ROM then u have to downgrade ROM via PC Odin.

Download rootable Stock ROM from Here

In the above Dr. Ketan's Thread he mentioned the rootable and non rootable ROMs

after Downgrading and installing CWM+Root flash any Custom ROM

You can get back to Stock ROM again without worries. Just Flash Stock ROM which is available for your country via PC Odin. (You get warranty too)

If you do everything correctly, then nothing goes wrong.

They are many ROMs available in above thread and Dr.Ketan marked some ROMs as Wipe or Non Wipe.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newg:
If you upgrade via kies, you'll lose root. so in essence, once you're rooted, whatever kies says doesn't really matter, as you'll most likely always be using mobile odin or cwm from that point onward, assuming you want to keep root of course.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
I cannot agree more with this...Don't bother with Kies now that you're rooted. Why wait for OTA/Kies updates when you can get any new Rom here at XDA a day or two after it is released?

Removing Kies scheisse from zips is the first thing I do before flashing new Roms. Needless to say, it's been removed from my PC ages ago, and replaced by Sammy USB drivers for transferring files etc.

In a word, forget Kies, you're in better hands here at XDA.:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
But if you update it with kies/OTA, you will lose Root. So update using CWM/Mobile odin only.

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

Exactly.

Even it appears on XDA before OTA, as usually OTA appears few days later to Kies release.
