Updating Indian Firmware manually

Hello! :D

I have a GT-I9070 and want to update my phone manually to JB from GB.

The phone's current details are-

Android Version- 2.3.6

Baseband Version- I9070DDLK2

Kernel Version- 2.6.35.7-1211839 dpi@DELL133 #2 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 16 14:20:37 KST 2012

Build Number- GINGERBREAD.DDLK2

Could someone please guide me on updating this phone to the latest stock Indian firmware (I9070DDULP8), step-by-step? Even a link to the procedure will do. :highfive:

After a full charge I did 30 mins of chatting, watched a movie for 1hr 30mins, then did another five mins of chatting. By then the battery level was 62%. Then I kept the phone aside and slept. And I woke up in the morning 8-9hrs later only to find out that my battery was completely drained.

Here are the screenshots of battery consumption. Please help me understand what caused the battery drain.

I would really appreciate any input. Thanks in advance :)

I suggest that you install better battery stat and check for partial wake lock. You can find the one responsible for it.

I'll try that out for sure. Can you conclude something from the graph?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arffrhn:
Well seeing that your phone was awake while your screen is off, there must be something causes it to stay awake. That's why you should check using better batt stat. Or that might be the old media bug which causes a lot of battery drain during screen off.

Sorry I am a complete noob. What media bug? ( I am on stock GB) Can you please suggest a good app that might help me figure out what app is causing the phone to be awake?

I hit the back button a few times to come to my home screen after the movie. How am I supposed to close the video player properly? I was using MX Player.

1st icon is software update notification icon. I am running Stock GB so whenever I connect to wifi that notification shows up.

2nd icon is the battery level indicator.

3rd the avast antivirus, as u might have figured out

4th icon is showing that the default power saver mode is on.

One more thing I would like to say is that my whatsapp, facebook notification sound sometimes do not play completely. I can't understand whats causing it.

Thanks a lot for replying and helping me understand the issue better.

If you're planning to root your phone or try a custom kernel or custom themes/mods then please don't use KIES! There are much better alternatives..

- Use your recovery (TWRP or CWM) to make a complete nandroid backup

- Use third-party apps like Titanium Backup, Go-Backup, etc.

- Use SMS Backup & Restore for your SMS

for me personaly best battery save is not to have battery save app :) but to have appropriate cpu govornment that comes with custom kernel. the best one is cocafe's. I would suggest you to return background processes to default, that's not wise to reduce. Why do you keep tapping clear memory? You should tap it only just before you're going to run some big application like need for speed, or you want to kill some application that you just used and plan not to use it in neartime and which cannot be exited. otherwise android is managing memory as good as it's possible so don't confuse him :) with stock rom you will hardly get lower ram levels... i suggest you to stop using live wallp :p You should consider going to CM 10 or CM 10.1

Thank you so much for your quick response ....a couple of questions, though. I apologize if you guys find them annoying or Silly..

1) I see Co-core6.8 is the latest from Cocafe - Is it a stable release, does it have any bugs ?

2) Mine is DDULP8**rooted**, with unchanged Stock Kernel and Stock Recovery, do I fulfill the requirements to FLASH cO-cORE 6.8 THROUGH Frapeti's Universal Kernel Flasher ? Is it safe to Flash it through the UFK ?

3) Can anybody, list the advantages of using a Co-Core 6.8 over the STOCK Kernel ?

4) Does re-flashing the non-rooted XXXDDULP8 firmware through Odin**UNROOT**my Phone to it's default Stock Kernel and Recovery? (Cause I have 2 years of extended Warranty till May, 2014 which I have Voided already)

5) Can anybody list the Bloatwares, that can be safely removed through Titanium BackUp Pro ? (Did see a thread earlier but Quotes seemed to be skeptical and contradictory) :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razvan:
1. Yes its stable and very good. Try it and see by yourself.

2. Its safe to flash through frapeti's tool UKF.

3. Hmm, must try to see the difference from the stock kernel, and read carefully OP of the cocafe thread to see what changes is.

4. Reflashing stock FW with Odin, put your phone in stock stage, and your warranty it still ok. And yes, after flash a official FW with Odin, the ROOT is removed.

5. See my signature where must find a thread who treats that subject.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Well that's bad.. even I can't find a way to (safely) root your phone.. I just checked for the Jellybean update for your firmware (i9070DXLK2) but this firmware still did not receive the update yet... one thing you can do right now is install any Jellybean firmware (like DULP8 or XXLQE) then root it using Shaaan's rooting method... Because rooting a JB firmware is much easier than rooting a GB firmware... but doing this will obviously void or nullify your warranty... But even I have question- Since your device is network locked will other firmwares work on your device or not? Thats the question I'm having right now... I can freely change firmwares as my phone is not locked under any network or telecom company....
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darleycosta:
I have a very strange problem:

Every rom I install, be it official or custom, does not appear over the screen "setup wizard". now goes straight to the home screen launcher.

I've tried everything: I did all the wipes, formatted the system, did downgrade, and nothing.

I always wipes before installing any rom.

This rom 4.1 of ZTO (the newest) is very good. Very fast, hd games run very well. But it has a problem that bothers me too. The battery runs out very, very fast. Even with kernel 6.8 and CoCore processor running at 800 MHz, when I play on my phone for 10 minutes, spend 8-10% of my battery.

And the worst: When I leave the unit in standby (wifi, 3g, sync disabled), consumes on average 8% of the battery charge in one hour. remember that before this problem he consumed only 2% in 3 hours.

I realized that after spending too much happened that "problem" of the setup wizard. And every rom I install (2.3 and 4.1) are having the same battery consumption.

Can anyone help me? I would be eternally grateful.

Thank you so much for your quick and kind reply....I really appreciate you taking time and responding to my questions.

A few questions again, ;)

1) What is the difference between the two: (Found in CoCafe's thread)

- CoCore-E-6.8-CWM.zip - [Click for QR Code] (9.24 MB, 4001 views)

- CoCore-E-6.8-TWRP.zip - [Click for QR Code] (10.21 MB, 1630 views)

2) Can I flash any of the above Kernels through Frapeti's UKF with Stock recovery untouched ?

3) Before flashing the Kernel do i need to back up my phones data/ Factory reset it ?

4) Does it decrease battery life ?

5) Were there any changes / limitations that you found annoying or a loophole after you flashed the Kernel ?

6) I do see I can back up my existing Stock kernel first, which I did and I got a 16MB "UKF_Backup.bin" file. Is this my existing Stock Kernel & if I wish to go back to Stock Kernel do I flash it the same way ?:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

I really appreciate your patience and understanding .......Awaiting you kind response..:o
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shut_down:
1) 1st one is with CWM custom recovery, 2nd one is with TWRP custom recovery. All other things are the same;

2) Yes, but first you need to unzip it - and use kernel.bin.md5 file with UKF;

3) No need for that, that is recommended on changing ROM. Kernel has nothing to do with your data;

4) Depends, if you change governor to Performance it will use 1GHz all the time. How you set it it will work. If you leave on default it will be similiar to stock. If you want to know more about governors - use SEARCH tool of XDA forum, all things are already written;

5) Limitations - no.

6) Yes, you can use that file later to go back to that - stock kernel.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razvan:
Honestly I use CWM and am very pleased. But TWRP has the same functions, with few exceptions, like "touch interface", "flash multiple zips". I think it's just a matter of habit or taste that what recovery you choose;

Yes, you can flash through Frapeti's tool, but first you must extract from zip the file. Something like kernel.bin.md5 ...

No need to backup, no factory reset;

Depends of many factors, but overall it's a much better experience than the stock kernel in all points of view;

Please, be more specific because i dont understand the quoestion;

I dont think for stock kernel work UKF, but you can do it with Terminal Emulator like is specified in Cocafe thread. See the OP of CoCore.

Later Edit: Seems Shut_down is much faster than me. :laugh: :highfive:
