...so man, how it's going?

:thumbup:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] vazzz:
Hi all!

I would like to ask for help.

Why is this? How do I get it back to its original state?

Odin not update modem.bin. If i flash modem only, then odin say failed. If i flash full fw, everything happens, but baseband version not change it.

so Kies will not update OTA because it does not recognize the phone.

My original rom:

I9070XXLF4

I9070TMHLF1

T-mobile Hungary.

I have tried many firmware to another pc, another cable, another USB port, but does not change the baseband.

Can you help me?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] shut_down:
You cannot OTA update with custom ROM and custom kernel with custom recovery. About that baseband problem, I do not know.

It is JetMOD ROM, and ThunderZAP kernel you are using now.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] vazzz:
Thanks, I know what I'm using. :)

No matter what firmware or kernel, the same situation.

I'm using Jetmod now, but this is irrelevant.

The biggest problem is that the signal is so weak, often disconnected from the call, the network mode and bounce, I think this is caused by the incorrect baseband.

There must be a solution, but a simple Odin flash not a viable option.

How did you manage to make such a major error ?

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] vazzz:

vold.fstab for Jelly Bean (GT-i9070)

A member of my group released the vold.fstab file that works perfectly in Android Jelly Bean to Advance S (GT-I9070)

Replace this vold.fstab by vold.fstab present in /etc/.

Do not forget to backup the old vold.fstab. Just rename to vold.fstab.bkp.

After the change, reboot your system, need root access

This file leaves the memory sdcard as internal memory. Thus all dates of games and things more 'heavy' will be installed on your SD card and not on the partition of 4gb + device.

Hi all,

With that said, I'm more than willing to use my Galaxy S Advance for rom development, but I don't have any experience about rom development.

I've some experience with linux and I work as programmer (pc,web and android) so I can assure a decent level of experience in problem solving and coding.

While waiting for more devs and a dedicated forum this thread is the reference for the rom develop on the i9070.

I'm trying to understand how to port a different GB rom to the I9070.

I think I'll look at porting CWM too, so that flashing will be simplier.

Step 3 will be, in my opinion, to port ICS on this device, possibly starting from CM9.

Hello,

I am willing to help in i9070 development.

I'm considering starting getting the open source code provided by Samsung and attempting to merge with CM7.

I am still afraid of bricking the phone (I will eventually get through this stage), thus, I'm researching methods to be as safe as possible in this process, prior attempting any real modification.

Please, keep posting updates regarding your progress in this phone :)

Glad to see someone working on it.

Back on Topic, as of now I didn't have all the time free I wanted to, so I've tried to set up the kernel building environment with cgywin + chaintool and kernel source code, but unfortunatelly no luck, everithing seems fine but the zImage is not working.

This morning I've setup a lUbuntu 12.04 virtual machine but after that no progress due to some work related stuff and family.

Pretty sure this evening I'll try again to build the kernel source and hope everithing it's working.

I've found some intresting guides on this subforum

As a quick update, this doesn't work also:

root@android-VirtualBox:/home/felipe/i9070# head -c -32 system.img.md5 > system.img
root@android-VirtualBox:/home/felipe/i9070# ./ext4_utils/simg2img system.img system.img.ext4

root@android-VirtualBox:/home/felipe/i9070#

I tried with cut values ( in the code above -32 ) from 48 to 72, same error. Way too bruteforce-y, but I was expecting to catch something by luck there (I'm a bit tired now).

I've attached how the end of the file looks like, when opening with a hex editor.

It's definitely a signature at the end of the file, just need to find out how to remove it properly to convert the file :)

waahhh...glad to see the thread so alive... welcome , welcome... noob dev-wannabe reporting in...qzem, still alive? haha...

by the way, can I ask you guys for some help? I have been having problems with Bluetooth audio playback, nothing too serious, but the audio skips every minute for about half a second, and its annoying... I paired my phone with Sennheiser PX210-BT... Do you guys listen to music using bluetooth headsets? If yes, do you guys have the same problem as mine? For info, the phone is rooted, but with my own kernel files, which differs a bit from qzem's...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] hackbob:
Wrote a PM to qzem and it seems is now at the sea from today on (10 days if I recon correctly)

On qzem rooted kernel I have no problem with BT headset and music (listening to it Right Now)

I had that problem after every song the other day while using Maps for navigation... but I think it's kind of a "security" feature or simple coincidence.

BTW back in topic.

Compiled kernel yesterday night, unfortunately I've an appointment this evening so I'm not able to flash it and test.

@kilsmap: do you know how qzem build the kernel specific for the different rom (ex. XDDL1 or XDDL2, etc...)?

In the root thread there are some new image version and I had the xddl3 before rooting, that image should have some more fixes in it as stated by samsung
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] TheZoc:
Hello kilsmap! Thanks for welcoming us :)

Sadly, I dont have a bluetooth headset to try that :(

Btw, kilsmap and qzem, can you teach us the process to create your own kernel for this phone ? While I know it's boring to write guides, but a step by step one can help us a lot to get a grasp of how the system works.

This might be stupid, but I'm stuck at unpacking the system.img.md5 file... it seems system.img doesn't usually come with a md5 signature, and I can't find the proper way of removing it. (the other way around is also true, I dont know how to sign the file).

Thanks in advance!

These links scare me:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Advance

it seems we got a pretty "unique" processor there :(

On the bright side, it uses ARMv7 instruction set, but it seems there are no ports of ICS (CM9) at all for "NovaThor U8500". :(

Damn I was looking forward to see the ICS kernel ported to i9070. :(

Any ideas on how to get started on this ?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Android Development] kilsmap:
Haha... I think you guys are confused... system.img.md5 is NOT the kernel file, but the system.img of the stock ROM... the kernel file would only be the kernel.bin.md5... Every .img file has different ways to unpack it, but for system.img, I followed the guides from here->http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1081239<-... just that I have yet to reconstruct my own system.img... Actually the .md5 extension is just to verify the integrity of the file, whether the file was intact or corrupted, so you can freely move that, leaving system.img, or kernel.bin... But if you still want to sign it with .md5 hash, I found the steps here->http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1516051<-.. find instruction #11...

From my research, its not that hard to compile a kernel... With qzem's kernel, it's simply getting the right initramfs file from the specific kernels, and then compile it along with the correct opensource kernel that can be found at samsung.opensource.com... That's why I have been able to compile my own kernel... Instruction was also given in the opensource kernel file... The hard thing was to extract initramfs files from original ROMs... I think you can find all the infos at the beginning of the thread, I think from bro Xanonus...
