"Universal auto Install Root, Busybox, Enable BLN , Init.d support, Swap support and OC kernel upto 1.1Ghz" from squadzone was running fine on my phone for a couple of days.

All I can say is that in my case, my phone got bricked after adding a swap partition to my SD card with Parted Magic (GParted), installing Swapper 2 and applying some settings.

I don't want to say right now that installing Swapper 2 equals bricking your phone. It could have been a combination of factors that led to the brick of my phone. But I think you should be careful. My phone was running smooth anyway, so I don't know if it was necessary to add a swap partition. I just wanted to try it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] peter_baz:
hate to say this but i told you that we dont need swap :((((

i bricked mine too when i was trying to root it a month ago (but i found a way at the end)

anyway when i bricked it(odin didnt recognised it at all and didnt boot ofc) i went to a samsung center and it took 15mins and 20euros to fix it :P
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
Learned my lesson ;).

Hate to say this too, but you where right :laugh:.

Today, the phone didn't boot at all...

I went to a local Samsung Service Center (with the 20 euro's you mentioned in mind). They told me it had to be send to Samsung. It would probably cost more then the value of a new device (I mentioned it was rooted). After that, they advised me to bring it to the store where I bought it, so I did.

The store is going to send it to Samsung (which means I have to miss it for about three weeks). I hope it doesn't cost me much. They mentioned, I only have to pay if the cause is water damage or damage from falling.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] peter_baz:
if it boot they would fix it right away

but you are lucky in your unluck!

the cant prove that you flashed it so you still have warranty xD

rofl
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
Haha, at least I have some luck :D.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] squadzone:
Mmm... very interesting,

my phone was bricked too, but different method xD

im trying to reset custom bin counter, Lol...

i will do some research about this after i get my device back,

something problem in system partition layout,
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
Ok, so your device got bricked after trying to reset the bin counter? Did the device still boot?

When do you get your device back?

I'll probably get mine back in about two or three weeks. I hope they don't charge me.

If you need additional info about how I bricked my phone, feel free to ask.

I hope you don't mind that I'm not going to install Swapper 2 again when I get my phone back, so I can't help you testing if that's necessary to get swap support without bricking the Mini 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Zedd247:
Now even squadzone bricked his phone i'm too scared as **** to flash something on my phone xd
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
Lol, me too when I'll get my phone back :p.

I don't want to miss my device for another three weeks, but on the other hand I really like to experiment with things like that.

Maybe I'll buy a cheap second hand android phone for those purposes.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Zedd247:
Like what thr sgm2 already is an lowbudget phone :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
I know, but that's still quite much for a brick ;):p

I almost bought a i5800 for €40,-. Just a phone with android where I can experiment with and use it untill my S6500D is back.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] peter_baz:
i sold my old i5800 90€ :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
Ok :p. We already reached an agreement about the €40,-, untill someone else offered more and he sold the phone to him....

Yesterday evening, I made an agreement about buying a Samsung Galaxy Y for €65,-

The phone was bought a day ago, by a older man who couldn't read the screen. Because it is a prepaid phone, he couldn't return it to the store.

I'm trying to make an appointment to buy the phone, but he (the son of the man) hasn't responded yet.

I also saw someone else made a higher bid (€80,-), so I hope the deal still goes on :fingers-crossed:.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Zedd247:
I think it's a wast of money but, who am I to say that
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
I also didn't buy the Galaxy Y, because the deal didn't go through (he decided he wanted to keep the device, or at least that's what he told me).

I think I'll just wait untill I get my SGM2 back.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
A family member of me ordered a Mini 2, which I can use (if it arives earlier than my own Mini 2).

I unlocked my own S6500D with Samsung Remote Server (Unlock Samsung Online), for €15,-.

Is there a free method available right now, to unlock the phone so simcards from other providers can be used?

If the motherboard of my phone gets replaced, do I have to unlock it again?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] anuneanu:
you didn't select any pit file?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Pazzie:
No, was that necessary?

I couldn't get into download or recovery mode.

p.s.

I've got another S6500D now, but I'll probably keep using the stock firmware for a while :o.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] anuneanu:
You had to have a pit file selected to flash using odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] pesof:
I have just bought mini 2 and i need some help :)

HI:)

i have just bought my galaxy mini 2

and i want some advice from u :)

what rom should i flash and how should i flash

does the Universal auto Install Root, Busybox, Enable BLN , Init.d support, Swap support and OC kernel upto 1.1Ghz improve my phone ?

or should i just root it?

i am new to android since this is my first android device

so what does swap mean?

the last thing...

i saw something about improving the processor from 800 to 1.2 ghz ?

is that safe ??

plz help i need to improve this phone and its brand new and i don't want to brick it :D

so just tell me the steps that u have tried and u advice me to use it

or should i stock on my original device without messing with it?

in the end sorry for my bad english :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Uizz.UW:
Here's a topic that I made summing up the most info about SGM2 - click!

Atm I recommend you to do the following things :

Flash Squadzone's CWM via Odin (click here for Squadzone's CWM , and I attached a working Odin for SGM2 in the first post of the link above)

Install the zip file Squadzone provided in the same topic as the CWM to root your device .

Also install the kernel he provided , only the one for overclocking , not the all-in-one kernel . Use AnTuTu CPU Master (search for it on Google Play) after you flashed the kernel to get your CPU frequency to 1107MHz (that's what I use and it works like a charm) .

That's all I use atm for SGM2 . Right now there is only one custom rom for it here , but it doesn't bring anything new performance-wise . Flash it only if you want a more interesting design , but expect some bugs .

Swapping means using the SD card as RAM . So far it doesn't work with our device , moreover it BRICKS IT (tested by many people , all got it bricked , note that they used Swapper 2) .

If you need any more info , don't hesitate to ask !
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] pesof:
thanx alot :)))))

you really made my day :)

but as i said i'm new to android...

so if i downloaded the thing u told me to above

then what should i do?

copy the files to memory card and shutdown the device and then press home key and power with volume up

then choose update from sd card zip and choose the files u advised me to use one by one

am i doing it right ?:)

but what about the odin thing?

how to use it

and can i skip the first step?...ClockWorkMod 5.0.2.8 via odin

and do the other steps?...cuz i don't need to do something i'm not sure about :)

u can call me a noob but i swear i am not :D...or at least trying not to be :D
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] L.E.D 26:
New phone gan,or overclock.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] alungstiff:
Use windows xp,and instal usb driver and flash via odin

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] teodor79:
i've got this problem yesterday, now my phone won't start. Did you pay anything?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] rbeier1221:
There is a minor update coming....sucks it isn't ICS, but they tend to push out these updates just before a major upgrade...so fingers crossed.

http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4182

Whether or not it is worth installing, though....and it does look like your phone has to be unrooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
for sure if anyone is going to update to this go back to stock just so you don't brick :D

already looking into it see if i can base next dknight with this update :P
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
I've kept my phone on its stock ROM and unrooted, and it looks like my waiting finally paid off! Hoping you're right, and that this is a pre-req for the upcoming ICS release. Maybe this will coincide with the T-mo release of the Blaze Q (QWERTY version of the Blaze 4G)?

Also, has this update gone live yet? I'm using WiFi at the moment and so far I get a message saying there isn't an update available from the server
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Bulletblitz27:
Can someone confirm if I have to be unrooted?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
I put my sim into the blaze and nothing no update ota yet lol if anyone gets it before midnight hit me up on a PM :D

if not then tomorrow it goes live on mini kies and i'll just download it there
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
This is why I always flash recovery first and run a backup of stock prior to rooting. I will backup where I am now and check to see if there's anything to this update.

This also kind of confirms that ICS will be coming soon as stated... kinda exciting! :D:D
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I just tried to get the update and didn't get it rooted... restoring now to stock ( no root) and will post results.

Didn't get the update stock either. ...not that I expected this to actually come ota...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] rbeier1221:
Haven't seen it yet, but if I do I will hit you up.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
Just wanted to point out, this made it to tmonews:

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/07/sams...pdate-prepares-device-for-ice-cream-sandwich/

"We saw something very similar for the Galaxy S II as a small maintenance update arrived a few weeks before Ice Cream Sandwich. We hope that same scenario plays out here as well. Stay tuned for Ice Cream Sandwich Blaze 4G owners."
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Bulletblitz27:
Huh... How do I revert to Stock unrooted? Also, do I HAVE to update to install future custom ICS ROMs? I'd rather just wait until the source code is released ans I'll just install a Stock custom ROM. I need clarification. Because I don't feel like reverting to Touchwiz -_-
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
just because u said u don't like touchwiz made me answer this more :D

to return to unrooted stock you need to use the stock LB7 tar file and the blaze.pit file and Odin back to stock

I beliieve k0nane made a good guide for that on dev forum.

And you can always wait as soon as Kies updates tomorrow with LF4 i'll download and decrypt it and use it for base no my build 5 for dknight which is going to add some awesome stuff on top of the already awesome stuff :P
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Bulletblitz27:
Yay! So I'll skip the 'back to Root' phase for that dumb small update and just wait until you release your updated one. I'll just have to flash it which is easier lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] tthaz777:
Just received software update notification around 11pm MT on 07-16-2012. Unfortunately, it isn't ICS update. Keep waiting. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
damn i haven't gotten it here in pacific time :( time to get a hold of sammys servers :P

this just made my night time to codeeeeeee lol

EDIT: Downloading!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

EDIT#2: If I'm downloading from their servers then it should be available in kies if anyone can check?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] LiveFaster:
Hey I'm here in Pacific time as well. But when i check for software update it days none. am i supposed to be waiting?

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4g :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
do it thru kies and im already building my rom :P
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] adrianjr84:
Do you know what the update does yet?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Cirkustanz:
The very first post links to the t-mobile site, which contains this information:

Version

Android version 2.3.6 / Software version T769UVLF4

Updated 07/16/2012

OTA and Manual update

Improvements

E911 issue over Wi-Fi resolved

Echo issue when on Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) call

Proximity Sensor improved

Prerequisites

OTA and Manual (via Samsung Kies) update

Android version 2.3.6 / Software version T769UVLB7

Device software is not rooted

50% battery life

Data connection

20 MB available memory (File size of update is 15.7 MB)

I tried to apply the update, not knowing what it was since it popped to my phone over night. It failed of course, since my phone is rooted, but I'm keeping root for now.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Update is live through Kies as of 9am cst. You lose CWM through the update and cannot be rooted.

So will the current CWM and rooting methods be ok to be used again? I hate bloat:eek:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
How long did it take for the update to work via Kies?

I started the firmware download, and once the download finished Kies kind of.. froze. Didn't see any activity in task manager, phone didn't show anything besides the normal home screen. Disconnected the phone with no ill effects fortunately.

Probably because I'm running Windows 8 release preview.. will try on my other Windows 7 rig
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
It took me about 20 minutes from start to finish. It does appear to freeze during install but it should keep going and your phone will reboot when it is completed.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
Was there any progress bar or anything? All I saw was a download window pop up, reach 100%, disappear, and then Kies was essentially frozen (despite task manager saying it was still responsive). Nothing was going on on my phone's screen
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Yes there was a progress bar and it reached 100% and essentially froze an after a bit a pop up window appeared saying to not unplug the device until after it rebooted. You know it's going along ok when your phone reboots to download mode. There's pictures showing the normal progression on the T-Mobile support webpage... the link is at the beginning of this thread. Just make sure to not unplug your phone when you are in download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] jigally:
i am rooted and i got the update, no ROM tho
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] jigally:
so it looks like i just lost root after doing the update... wack
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Yep official updates always unroot the phone you can flash k0nanes kernel for root or flash cwm then flash a rom or just flash superuser binary :P
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] jigally:
sweet. I'll probably just hold on until the stok ics comes out then start playing around with roms. interestingly, my old superuser app cannot be uninstalled. Sound normal? I mean, it wont open and I get the "this application is not installed on your phone" prompt. But the shortcut for the app is still visible.. weird.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Beastmode:
Possibly because it's in /system/app/ and since you don't have root you can't remove lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] myorks1127:
Has anyone had a potential glitch yet with the new update where the phone turns completely off after hanging up from a phone call? This happened to me today.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] snoopy1e11:
Not yet
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
Located in Houston, and I just got the update this morning. I'll let you know if I get a bug like this
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] ubizmo:
I applied the update today, after initially failing. My phone is/was rooted, but I hadn't installed any custom ROM or anything. I only rooted it to be able to use NoFrills CPU, and to be able to freeze out some stuff.

But what does the "50% battery life" highlighted above mean? If it refers to a 50% improvement in battery life via OS enhancements, then I don't care about rerooting. That seems like a pretty extreme improvement, however, and hard to believe. So what else could it mean?

If I want to reroot, do I just follow the same rooting instructions again? It's been a few months and I've forgotten, but I'm sure I'll find them.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
It just means that your phone should have at least 50% battery life before applying the update (so your phone doesn't go dead during an update). Though my phone updated just fine with only 37% battery life remaining.

These are the only improvements/fixes made:

E911 issue over Wi-Fi resolved

Echo issue when on Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) call

Proximity Sensor improved
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] ubizmo:
Ah okay, thanks for the explanation. I feel like an idiot for asking.

On the plus side, I was able to root much faster this time around--much less trouble getting into download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
I still haven't rooted my phone, waiting for the official ICS release and then I plan on rooting!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] glass330:
Can't we just flash the stock kernel back then apply the update? Flashing the whole stock tar seems way too extreme...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] floogulinc:
Just tried on rooted, doesn't work, just reboots and says it failed. Also, doesn't brick device either. I don't really see a reason to update anyway, the improvements are not enough to make me want to go back to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Desertstorm00:
Yea. I feel like it really isn't worth updating. But does anyone know how to get rid of the notification? Not just postpone it. I find it rather annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] snoopy1e11:
Its more than likely just a pre ICS update I don't know if Samsung does but sometimes you have to be on the latest version to get the update meaning you have to be on that version to get the official ICS update. But I wouldn't worry to much because since we're rooted when ICS does come the devs will make a fladhable zip. But nothing is wrong with updating it doesn't hurt anything and you can root the same way as before and I also have the tar in general section
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] whoopderitis:
you can flash a custom recovery without root?

*edit* nvm. i didn't realize you can flash thru odin for custom recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Phattack:
I can't update via OTA or Kies. I went back to stock after rooting. And it wouldn't update? Any suggestion?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] snoopy1e11:
They don't stop pushing ota til 8/5/12
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Phattack:
I got the update push to my phone. When I try to update it, it reboots and then a blank screen comes up.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] snoopy1e11:
Update thru Odin with the tar file then
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] phanphan21:
Anyone know how to simply disable the update notification. I do not want it, and can't find any information anywhere on how to simply get rid of it. I am rooted and the phone is exactly how i want it to be. I do not want to have to update roms everytime there is an OTA update. I just want my phone to stay as is. I cannot disable or uninstall the software update system app using es file explorer. Thanks!

edit: i downloaded an app freezing app and it stopped the popup notification, but the icon is always still in the top left of the notification bar and the message is still there when i pull down on it. this isnt a big deal really, but it is kind of lame to have the icon still...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] spartanerik:
I don't think it will go away until T-mobile stops pushing that update (and by then I imagine you will be getting a new popup indicating there is an ICS update available)
[HTC Wildfire S] Tigger31337:
As requested by you, my grateful users, I humbly present to you...

The WildChild Sense ROM​

This is basically your stock HTC Sense 2.1 ROM, with a few extra twists:

WildChild themed (hope ya like blue!)

Einstein Frat's latest "Cake" (v1.4) over-clocked kernel

De-Odex'ed ROM (with an Odex version coming very, very soon!)

Extra alarm & notification sounds

a2sd support (with Link2SD bundled... go nuts.)

Wake screen with volume rocker

CRT animation on/off

Removed the Google Market updater (will provide it as an Add-On, if users wish it)

Some extra crap I'm almost certainly forgetting

Adobe Flash player

Barcode Scanner

Link2SD

Terminal Emulator

AnEq Equalizer

FileExpert

GPSStatus

NoFrills CPU

Notepad

Partitions Info Lite

ScreenFilter (for making your screen ultra-dark)

Startup Auditor

Superuser

WiFi Manager

Wifi Tracker

(ALL apps are at current version, as of today)

As with the original WildChild ROM, I will add flashable .zip "Add-On" packages as users request them. There are currently Add-Ons unique to WildChild Sense (see Post #2, below) or you have the option to experiment with the numerous Add-Ons from my previous WildChild ROM (found here). I suspect most of the original WildChild Add-Ons will work with this Sense ROM, just stay away from anything marked "Nemus" or "Rosie" unless you know what the hell you're doing. ;)

There are two versions of this ROM: Odex'ed and De-Odex'ed. Search on these XDA forums to learn the difference. The Odex'ed version here gives you about 108 MB of internal /data space free for your applications install.

WildChild Sense De-Odex [v1.0]

MD5 = a784c5e8be9c019a2b09c81b3bda0363

WildChild Sense Odex [v1.0]

MD5 = 43649c3bf780dd216d2cb782e86cf4ed

As far as Sense 2.1 ROMs go, this one's pretty slick. Not only is it VERY stable (I tested it for two weeks prior to release with nary a single force-close, hang, or reboot) but, as usual, it's pretty phucking good looking. ;) If you enjoy the Sense UI as much as I do, then I hope you have fun with this ROM. Feedback, as usual, is very much welcomed.

Installation instructions are similar to the previous WildChild ROM. Get 'em here.

Enjoy,

...oh, and since no one will download a ROM without 'em, here are your beloved:
[HTC Wildfire S] Tigger31337:
[+] WildChild "Recovery" flash (for when you f*ck up your ROM big time!) ;)

(Recovery Download for DeOdex ROM)

(Recovery download for Odex ROM)

This "Recovery" will replace essential services and framework in the WildChild Sense ROM. It is intended for you hacker folks who took tweaking a step too far and are now caught in a boot loop (or other disastrous consequences). By flashing this recovery, there is a VERY good chance that you will be able to reboot properly into your ROM (so that you may backup your apps, data, etc.) and then re-flash the ROM if necessary.

N.B. By flashing this recovery you may lose some customizations you've made to the ROM (but at least you'll get a chance to get your data back!), so use with caution.

[+] Change the colour of your boot animation

(See preview pics at http://imageshack.us/g/534/snowwhiteh.png/)

Coming soon...

[+] 5x4 app drawer

[+] remove my Ring of Fire lock screen and replace with stock :(

[+] other cosmetic tweaks and add-on's stolen from the original WildChild
[HTC Wildfire S] anhelogr:
Oh maaan I like this but I like my ultra lite Wildchild too:p:D

Ok I will give it a try :beer:

Send from my HTC Wildfire S

ROM. Wildchild. v2. 0
[HTC Wildfire S] Tigger31337:
I know. You can hate me later (when I release the "refresh" for WildChild!) ;)

One of the most frustrating things I remember is setting up my ROM just the way I like it... and then a DEV comes along and releases a ROM I was interested and I was like, "noooooooooo!!! you bastard!".

I think I've spent more time flashing, configuring, and tweaking, than I actually have using my damned phone. ;)

Thanks for all your positive input so far, anhelogr!

Cheers,
