[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
The cwm backup will probably be on you external SD under clockworkmod>backup. If not on external use internal. Just mount USB storage on your computer. After you get the stock backup off your SD , boot back into recovery and make a backup of your rooted stock firmware if you already haven't. You want to always have atleast one nandroid on your SD in case boo boo's occur.

As for the busy box thing I'm not exactly sure. All I can say on that is if any app request you to update it just allow it to. Maybe try the market app you mentioned. I'm not entirely too sure. Also maybe consider flashing a rom. You'll have that rooted backup on your SD you can restore whenever you'd like.

Glad everything went well for you. That's a good example of what reading before attempting does. Good job :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pls4ms:
Thanks again for the help and props. More success yesterday; moved the full stock ROM (unrooted) Nandroid to my computer, and then made another Nandroid of my rooted stock ROM. That too I put on the computer, but also left a copy my SD card.

Installed Titanium Backup Pro, and am now studying up on which .APK files I can safely freeze. Found a spreadsheet from the SG2 forum, and I'm guessing it's applicable for our device. Would post the link, but I'm not allowed to yet.

Lastly, I picked up the Nexus 2100 mah battery for which I'll be installing shortly as well. Starting to get more tuned up now, but you are right, once all this is complete I'll look at some custom ROM's as well. I guess freezing all of these files wouldn't really be necessary if I put on a new ROM anyway. Oh well. Baby steps.

Maybe try using a user script (usersscripts.org) which allows you to download the video, possibly also the audio track? These are snippets of Javascript which inject themselves into specific sites when you're viewing them. I use one named "YouTube to MP4" on Firefox on my desktop PC. Since the Android browsers are fully functional I expect the same option applies there.

For this option, Firefox requires Greasemonkey addon, but I believe it's a native option on Opera and Chrome.

Also try tubeGod(tubex) its no longer in the market so you have to search for it(its free so no problems)

I've been playing the new Angry Birds Space today, and I've been noticing something very annoying. The way you hold your phone while playing games like Angry Birds, your thumb is constantly moving in and out of the view of the ambient light sensor, subsequently causing the screen brightness to always be changing from dark to light and back. Is there anyway to set up screen brightness settings on a per app basis?

Currently running Calkulin's E4GT v2.9.2
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
Not to my knowledge. I just go to display settings and uncheck auto brightness.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
Probably what I'm going to have to do. There are plenty of apps/widgets that allow me to toggle the screen brightness settings and all, but I was hoping there was a way to do it automatically on a per app basis so that I didn't have to worry about forgetting to turn auto back on.

I am running a calkulin 1.0 because I was relying to find a rom that at least looks stock. I have tried Odin and all it does to my phone is leave a message to connect to Kies for recovery. I reflash a kernel and fix it but all it seems to take is flashing using recovery.

That is the generic behavior if an ODIN flash does not complete.

What does the log say in ODIN OC?

That will give insight into why it is failing.

You can also take the ODIN OC files (or the individual .tar.md5 in the 2nd post of the ODIN OC threads) and feed them to Mobile ODIN (after unpacking the 7zip self extractors)

Did you use cwm 0302 version? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1112804
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
If you want FP1 kernel you have to odin back to stock ep4d then use factory recovery to flash FP1. This included FP1 kernel and radio. Currently this is the ONLY way to update to FP1 kernel. All other packages (bloated/debloated/deodexed), they don't have the FP1 kernel. If you follow step 3, you will have FP1 kernel, radio, cwm and rooted.
[Verizon Droid Charge] lpt2569:
I'm about to do the same. Have you noticed a difference (good or bad) with the new radio?
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
I don't have cracks and pops with my radio, so can't speak for that. However, I found that the FP1 kernel is bit smoother and faster compared to old stock, and wifi increased 1 bar on my phone (this varies depend on your router manufacture), 4g + wifi locking super fast when turn on. I would think the new radio is better for sure. I would recommend to install the new radio at least then running anything else you want on top of that. Currently I'm checking the battery life with this FP1 rom. Will post update.
[Verizon Droid Charge] elucid:
It is too early to tell. I'm hoping it will help with random data dropouts and occasional voice quality issues. Haven't had any issues, but it will take more time to really know.

Anecdotally, and with an egregiously small sample size, I seem to be getting (very) slightly better signal at my workplace, which has notoriously bad signal in the building. I'm looking at -98 to -95 dBm now, versus -100 dBm or worse before, however the difference could be small enough to be statistically irrelevant.

this is great stuff, thanks... question though:

last night, I flashed back to stock, then flashed in a debloated deodexed EP4D, then slapped on Eclipse v1.4 (http://eclipserom.com/vforum/showthread.php?72-ROM-Eclipse-Charge-v1-4-(2-28-12))

I downloaded to my SDCARD this file: http://eclipserom.com/vforum/showthread.php?658-ROM-FP1-Deodexed-Debloated-with-Eclipse-AOSP-apps

can I CWM this in, and then perform operation #1 (Issue with FP1 rom using custom kernel)

I do have the OTA update file stored on my SDCard... but haven't done anything with it...

thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] motcher41:
Credit for posting the stock OTA update to flash in stock recovery for FP1 should go to themortalwombat as he posted it initially I just fiked the link to make it clickable lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] dredge999:
Boot loop

Went back to Ep4D, copied the update to update.zip on SDCARD.

Updated with stock recovery.

Booted up to make sure that it was the new update (it was).

Shutdown and went into odin and flashed CWM.

Pulled battery and booted into CWM and flashed Charge-FP1-Eclipse01.zip.

Now I am in a boot loop. I have reflashed and then reflashed again then factory wiped and I am still boot looping.

Any ideas?

Rick

----

Update - Flashed the Charge-FP1-DeoDebloatedRooted.zip file (debloated,rooted) and it didn't boot loop. Perhaps something is amiss with the eclipse package that doesn't like the new kernel.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, you have a wrong kernel for Nitro Eclipse. Instruction #2 said if you have a custom rom and want to update to Nitro's Eclipse. But since you flashed stock FP1, you now have FP1 kernel and this won't work with Eclispe.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dredge999:
Thanks for the info. I guess I am just stuck with the horrid color scheme until someone updates a custom ROM to FP1/kernel with a better theme.

I was also wondering if some of the devs might be able to get rid of the Verizon customer service app. I don't trust them (Verizon) and I am sure it also involves a ton more logging, i.e. tethering logging, etc.

Custom Kernal for FP1?

Anyone have an update on a custom Kernal for FP1? Right now I'm using the Imoseyon 4.0.0.1 I believe and its working but I really like to use Wifi and have not been able to since I loaded Eclipse debloated/deodexed/rooted rom and it works fine. In fact really happy with it. For some reason when I tried to Odin stock ED4P it stalled on the sln.bin so I just used the eclipse.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Currently no. Custom kernel will take a while to develop, so we just have to wait. We don't have a lot of devs and they are working on many models, not just the Charge. BTW, you tried to Odin stock EP4D? and are you on RFS or ext4?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jeremyumo:
EXT4. Should I be on rfs? If so I will just wait. I only switched to FP1 to stop the constant reminders of updates.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
If you already on FP1, you're running RFS. Do you read the OP page(first page)? There is a way to stop the OTA update notification. Or if you like to run custom kernel/custom rom, you can go back and just use the FP1 modem. This way you shouldn't have any issue with wifi. You only have issue when you are using Fp1 rom with custom kernel.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jeremyumo:
When I use Terminal Emulater and grant SU permission and type mount, I get

/system ext4

/cache ext4

/dbdata ext4

/data ext4

I do believe I'm EXT4
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Hey, you're pretty good, I'm about show you how to find that out :-)). So you have FP1 eclipse with a custom kernel running of ext4. Now what do you want to do? Just remember you have to be on RFS to use stock kernel.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jeremyumo:
I wanted to use Wifi but I know I need the FP1 Kernal but when I tried to ODIN ED4P it stalled on sln.bin so I just loaded the Eclipse on my SDcard and CWM over it and its running fine but no Wifi. It's ok if I have to but I'm getting fast speed tests from speedtest app but when I get or download from the market I get poop speeds, like anywhere from 50K/s to 150K/s. On the app I'm getting 800K/s on 3G, no 4G where I am. When I was reloading my apps from after the wipes, (data/dalvic etc) it took forever!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
Samsung hasn't released the FP1 source yet. Without that, we probably won't get kernels. It should be out eventually, so we just have to be patient.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Hahaha, patient is virtual! did I read it some where? in the bible...maybe!
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...IxHp1ISlP2fzGKhtw&sig2=O3tJ2TzbhJddk98d09wqHw

A faster way is you can use a already rooted rom like item C,D,E,F. Infact the instruction is pretty straight forward, you just have to do them twice, since FP1 will un stick your flash SU and CWM, but you need them to flash your hack tools. Read carefully before you do it and it should only take you no more than 15 min. Step #5 is for both cwm and superuser. If you just want superuser(root), then pretty simple:

1. Flash cwm, then turn off phone do not let phone boot up. hold vol down+home+power to boot straight into cwm (if your phone bootup you have to start this step over again.

2. flash su zip package

3 boot up phone then go to market, download superuser update fix and run it. That's it

How hard can it be??? if you couldn't do this you shouldn't be messing around with hacking.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thedonofdeath:
non lol I did manage to get all my verizon contacts back but not the facebook ones, even if it try to sync it doesn't do anything. Calendar is not synced either.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Did you try to go to settings, applications, facebook and clear data/cache? you going to have to re login to face book again, then go to the menu of facebook make sure "sync facebook contact" is enable.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thedonofdeath:
I actually don't have facebook installed on my phone, i usually just have to add account under settings accounts and sync and then sync the stuff and it would be good to go.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Oh! I see, how about first try to delete the account, reboot the phone and re add facebook account. If still not working, If it's my phone, I would do a factory wipe/data reset. This will wipe all data + apps on your phone. I'm on FP1 factory stock and my facebook sync fine. Good luck bros.
[Verizon Droid Charge] tintn00:
Nevermind. There was an easier method. I just made sure to flash rooted version of Eclipse immediately after installing CWM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Yes, that works too if you don't mind to use none factory stock :-))

Infact if you look at my instruction above, it's faster than flash another pre-rooted rom.

But you do have other options. there're 4 pre-rooted images (item #c,d,e,f) in the OP page. Cheers.
[Verizon Droid Charge] thedonofdeath:
Well I tried to do that before but didn't reboot. This time I did what you said and it worked perfect. Thank you so much, you guys are so awesome thank you :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] trevormalachi:
Might be a stupid question but what do you mean by mount/system and how do i do so
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
Boot into cWM and use down vol button to scroll down to mount storage, hit power button to go into a sub menu. In this menu you will see a list of options like:

mount cache

mount data

mount system

just scroll down to mount system and hit the power button, now you should see

unmount system

You just did it! you mount system, so when it mounted it should displayed "unmount"

** wipe cache is in the main menu

** wipe davik cache is a sub menu of advance which located in the main menu.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
The Eclipse version did not include the new FP1 modem. The only way you can install the FP1 modem is to flash the FP1 radio or a full FP1 OTA. therefore, you are still using the old EP4D or EP4P modem (what ever on your phone). So to fix your issue, I suggest you should load the FP1 modem. Just follow instruction #4 to load the FP1 modem. Here is a quick instruction:

1. Boot into cwm by hold down up vol+home+power button

2. wipe cache/davik cache

3. flash FP1 modem.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
OK, a new ECLIPSE 2.0 ROM has arrived for FP1. Please check it out see if you like it:

Found a few issues, can you justify if they legit or just a false alarm?

Quote:

"So far the only 2 things that have popped up for me is I received a call that I did not answer and I did not get the notification circle on the lockscreen informing me that there was a missed call.. And, I cannot select the keyboard of my choice.. Even though I set it up it won't make the switch.. And as mentioned in my previous post I have to " Disable Data " in the notification bar for my Wi-Fi to work.. But it does work.. But for me thats it so far.. Everything else I have tried works..."

So:

1. missed call notification failed to display on lock screen

2. failed to switch keyboard

3. Auto wifi/4G is not working
