Why would you ever need to do it that way anymore? We've had the official EL30 tarball thanks to the CM team for almost two months now. Cuts it down to just a one step dance. :)
[Epic 4G General] rocket321:
So FC09 not only "sees" 10 gps satellites, but it actually tries to "lock" on to all of them....yes? Past releases locked on to a max of 4 satellites and would frequently lose tracking even though there were many more available.

Does Touchwiz have scroll-able wallpapers back? Lost this feature in EL30.

I think he means he doesn't care to do a clean reinstall after a firmware update requiring reinstall of apps, settings etc,..........of course, there's a whole other school of modding: back + forth btwn BML + MTD ROMs via good stable nandroids OR clean installs............ + should things get erratic there's always ODIN to EL30 stock (as you mentioned instead of EC05) + if you want > advance restore 'data only' on your new MTD setup.........personally I prefer a clean install, but a lot of users have been jumping from CM9 to AOKP etc by just wiping cache + dalvik, data appears to be migrating to the next MTD flash without issues.

I had no problem restoring apps and data that I backed up from EL30 using MyBackup. The only thing that FC'ed was Groupon and that was fixed by clearing data and re-entering my ID. Seem like as long as you are moving from the same family of rom restoring data works fine.

Deodexed version I am only getting 4 locks max still.
[Epic 4G General] tigerknight:
Any chance there's a full tar direct to FC09 yet rather than having to go back and apply a bunch of update.zips?

Also.. what's a good resource to take something like that (assuming it exists) and customize it for a ROM (IE a guide on how to install % battery meter, remove XYZ bloat apps, etc)?

Figure I might as well jump in and try to roll-my-own since the EI22 ROM I'm on is no longer being kept up - it just runs too well to casually toss aside.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Read 3 posts above yours.
[Epic 4G General] tigerknight:
I saw it and I did go to check it out, but it doesn't really answer my questions:

1 - is there a full on tar (that post is just a pre-rooted nearly stock ROM) - I'm guessing 'no' at this point?

2 - where's a good guide or learning resource on how to create a rom from the item on question 1
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
No there is no tar, just the update.zip. You would Odin the EL30 tar and then flash the update zip in recovery...2 steps.

This is the thread orlzzt pointed me to to learn how to pull the stock system from my phone:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...871-convert-nandroid-backup-update-zip-2.html

Then google xultimate for deodexing, Dreamsforgotten has a guide in the stickies of Themes to teach you how to theme, you need to know linux to develop a kernel...but no clear cut guide from start to finish.
[Epic 4G General] tigerknight:
I know linux, but I'm not really going to go quite THAT hardcore on making a ROM. I'll be happy to find an available kernel that can be dropped in place. I have been using other people's ROMS and having to make decisions about which features of which ROM that other people have pieced together that I want to work with, so figured I would roll my own but just needed a place to start.

The EL30 tar and FC09 update is close enough for me for a fully stock base to work with. Thanks for the info :] Last thing I need to find out is where does one GO to find all the bits, pieces, and fixes that go into a ROM. I always see credit given to XYZ person for their work on a bit, but not where the piece actually comes from.

Looking through the theming pages now.
[Epic 4G General] sonarchist:
FC09 improved GPS, but data was not to par............jumped to AOKP, v6 supercharge, FC09 modem: some data improvement........+ GPS signal still gr8..........data must be irregular w/ 'system enhancements' being performed.

So, I'm stock rooted EL30 with the GPS_Fix.zip. I can just flash this or should I wipe some caches first?

You can just flash it and reflash the gps_fix. If you get FCs the wipe and reflash...I always live dangerously on Touchwiz stuff.

Good Morning XDA!, first of awsome noob vid.

I looked around, but this is pretty new i think.

Per video, phone details:

Model: SDH-D700 (Sprint)

Firmware: 2.3.6

Kernel: 2.6.35.7

Build: GINGERBREAD.EL30

Hardware: D700.0.5

Using ODIN i was able to ROOT my phone with the above build after nearly briking it. I received a notification of a new update. I'm assuming it speaks to FC09 update. So far i've declined it.

I don't install custom ROMS and just want the root. What is the proper procedure to keep the root and CWM. Will this break my root, i'm assuming so based on reading about a script that will undo the root etc...

brief as possible..
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Google qbking77's youtube video on how to root the samsung epic on EL30. All the files you need are linked there as well.
[Epic 4G General] jaguar3d:
Thanks Kenny, i believe that is the video i followed to do it successfully, but my concern is this new Over The Air update that is prompting me on my phone. If i click o "Accept and install" will it remove my root on my phone OR do i have to do it and then start over and re-root from scratch?

Thank you much for the response though.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
It won't install. Accept and let it fail. Pop battery out and in, go into cwm clear dalvik and cache. Edit your build.prop in the system folder of your phone. Change the five times it says EL30 to FC09, or simply flash the prerooted FC09 deodexed stock ROM.
[Epic 4G General] jaguar3d:
Wow, amazing response. Thanks.. where is the thanks button!!

one last q. Since i learned how to flash, where may i find a prerooted FC09 Deodexed Stock rom. Or should i gooogle it? don't want to download crapware?

again tahnks..

Hopefully someone can help me with this issue.

When using the stock "Soundrecorder" tool i can record the first two seconds just normal yet right after that the recording-volume just decreases so fast that after one more second i cant hear anything anymore when playing back the recorded sound.

When i stop and record again same thing happens again. This is quite the issue also in Skype since ppl can hear me the first seconds and right after its like i turned the micro off.

Trying one thread bump again to get a respond from someone with similar issues before i hit a factory reset.

The problem is really something i have not seen on any other android device i own. You start recording speech and right after 2 seconds the rec-volume is NULL.

Any Confirmed date, as to when AT&T will officially

provide the unlock code for Samsung Focus *S* ?

I'm looking forward to buy one & use it out of U.S.

Can anyone having a Focus S, kindly ask AT&T,

as to confirm the date, some1 will need to call or email AT&T

and provide the IMEI code...

Thanks a lot ! :D

--- background info ---

Samsung Focus had released in November ... AT&T provided the code officially,

right after 6 months, in May... so I'm assuming it;'s the same for Focus S ...but want a confirmed date...
[Samsung Focus S] Seven_PRX:
I bought a Focus S from AT&T then called them for the unlock code.

The guy I spoke to was really helpful and wanted to give it, so he searched for it in his system, and said they didn't have the code for my phone.

I ended up buying 1 online for 23 EUR.
[Samsung Focus S] drtolson:
I'm not aware of any North American carrier that will 'officially' unlock one of their phones.

It's easy enough however, to go to eBay or online to find 3rd parties who have access to the unlock algorithms who will sell you the code for your phone.
[Samsung Focus S] lalab0y:
can't speak for the other carriers, but T-Mobile has always had no problems giving me the unlock codes for my phones...just call them up, give them the IMEI code and they send you instructions+code for free..done this 2 times in the past..they may have some "background" requirements like account standings, you need to use the phone X days, etc..
[Samsung Focus S] zarn1w00p:
Just buy the phone on "No Commitment" ($549 plus tax) then go to http://fastgsm.com and get it unlocked ($19.99) which is exactly what I did and now use it in the UK

Hope this solves

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] disector89:
Hi all,

Long time viewer, first time poster, so do go easy....

I installed the task650's ICS UCLC2 leak CWM + root ROM last night from this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1568080

I'm facing some issues and wanted to see if this others were getting this too or its just me.

The phone gets quite hot and loses battery life pretty quickly (dead in <6 hrs). Also, kind of slow and jittery (coming from GB unNamed ROM). I really wanted to get ICS for Chrome (which looked really good on the nexus). But Chrome freezes up constantly and I have to force close it after browsing even a few pages.

Wondering if anyone else has had these issues as well with this ROM or did I do something wrong? Fixes?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] alacrify:
My best guess is that you didn't do a full wipe before installing, which would leave all kinds of hooks in the system. I'd recommend a fresh download (eliminate ROM issues), then a full wipe and do it again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hlinssen:
Another conflict...

I also installed the task650 deodexed etc. rom this morning. Since I was running unrooted UCLC2, I could only flash the .zip from the standard recovery mode. (After wiping all I could in that mode)

All seemed well, so I reinstalled all my apps and attempted a CWM backup.

This process started and then stalled leaving my phone at the Samsung Galaxy SII

screen and unresponsive to any attempts to get it into reboot or into recovery mode. After some waiting and battery-remove re-attempts, I finally got it into Odin mode where I could reinstall the unrooted I777UCLC2.exe.

Is this a CWM issue that others have also experienced, or because of my install method?

Does the outer touchscreen of your Samsung Galaxy S i9000 damaged or cracked? Having inner screen display problem? This take apart repair guide will show how to disassemble your Samsung Galaxy I9000 smartphone quickly and safely.

This guide will help you install the following Samsung Galaxy S i9000 parts(s):

Samsung Galaxy S i9000 LCD + Touch Screen Digitizer Replacement

And Other Samsung Galaxy S i9000 Replacement Parts

Required Tools:

Safe Pry Opening Tool

Small Phillips Screwdriver

Adhesive Strips (For screen repair)

Steps:

Remove the battery door, battery, sim card, and the memory card.

Use Small Phillip screw driver, remove the seven (7) screws from the back of the device as shown in Figure 1.

​

Figure 1​

Using a safe open pry tool, carefully separate the back cover from the motherboard/screen assembly. The cover will be clipped into place. Carefully work your way around all four sides of the device, releasing these clips.

The motherboard is now exposed. Use a safe open pry tool to release the white antenna cable and the four (4) pop connections. This will include removing the camera unit from the rest of the device.

Figure 2​

Once fully disconnected, you can now separate the motherboard to the front housing. Carefully lift the board from the device.

Next, use a heat gun or hair dryer to warm the adhesive holding the screen assembly to the front housing. Use medium heat on the front of the screen, consistently moving around the screen edges. This should take no longer than 1 minute.

Use a safe open pry tool to release the screen assembly from the housing. Reheat if the adhesive is still strong.

Remove the screen assembly from the housing.

Simply replace the damaged parts with the new ones and reverse the order to put your phone back together again.

That's awesome that you posted this today! I was just thinking of taking mine apart to see about replacing the sd card with a 32gb sd card.

Looking over your pics though, I don't see where the SD card is! Do you recall seeing it? I did this procedure in my HTC HD7 and it worked without a problem.

On a side note, Why is the Titan out of the box only 12.89 gb? I've removed everything I can and still only get 12.89 gb to play with. Simply not enough!

Thanks and let me know the whereabouts of the sd card reader location if at all possible!
[HTC Titan] egzthunder1:
It doesn't have one. They changed the model to make it onboard as opposed to microSD.

As far as memory, remember that you will have some memory dedicated to the ROM itself that cannot be touched as well as possibly having a hidden ext folder like wm roms used to have (which housed the cabs placed by carriers)... However, I do think that it is likely all going for ROM and stock apps
[HTC Titan] aghnokneemoose:
Well that really sucks. I did read that they are going to start putting the SD card back in as extra storage space.
