Hey guys,

I just soft bricked my GN a few hours ago, flashing a wrong kernel. Now i got the CWM working and just flashed a random ROM ( MIUI 4.0.4 ).

So here is the question:

How can i get the 4.1.1 from this point?

Can i try to flash a new rom and then update? Which rom?

Thank you! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patruns:
You won't get the official 4.1.1 unless you return to stock. You'll have to wait until the developers of your current ROM provide an update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ImSevenup:
It means that i can't even flash manually a stock 4.0.4 or newer?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dindog:
You won't get a OTA (automatic update push by google ) update if you are not using stock rom. But you can flash any rom you want, even back to the stock one if you like it.

Hi Experts,

I am a rooted U20i (Xperia X10 mini pro). I am regularly testing new customs ROM without any issues. However when i tried to install a Custom ROM which is build with append scripting, it gave me error that it is not supported beyond 1.5

I then installed xrecovery and in the recovery mode selected 'Install 'update.zip' file. However pressing the Menu key or Camera key is not selecting my choice. I searched the forum and understood that the Home Key needs to be pressed. However, my Home key does not responds since couple of months. Is there a way that I can still install the ROM.

This is my first post to this forum, so kindly excuse me for not using precise terms.

Regards,

Gunjan

FIXED: My own stupid. I also have a SGS2 and was using the wrong image as they a named similarly and reside in the same folder.

Hi all,

I wanted to flash teh stock Firmware to my S3 and Odin hangs at NAND Write Start.

Phone: Galaxy S3 International Version

Carrier: O2 Germany

What I have done before:

1. I was tired of waiting for OTA updates by my Carrier so I went to samfirmware.com and flashed the latest Firmware they had for my Phone (German Open; XXALF6). - No Problems

2. Since I like root, I flashed CF 6.4.

3. I installed TriangleAway and reset the flash counter.

Thats it, no further modifications.

Now, since my CSC actually seems able to deliver OTA updates and I want them, I decided to get the original Firmware from samfirmware for my CSC (XXALE8). But when I try to flash it via Odin, it hangs at "NAND Write Start" without any progress.

When I get bored and simply disconnect the USB cable, this does not hurt the phone, but i want the original Firmware on my phone again.

Any suggestions? I am open for anything but would prefer if it didn't involve wiping/factory resetting the phone.

Galaxy I9300

Android 4.0.4 Stock with CF 6.4

Baseband: I9300XXLF5

Kernel: 3.0.15-705505-user se.infra@SEP-65 #1

Buildnumber: IMM76D.I9300XXALF6

App manager only shows you what applications are currently active (i.e. apps that are using CPU cycles or are currently residing in the RAM.) Holding the home key brings up screenshots of recently used apps so as to make a quick way to return to apps that you were just using instead of having to dig around in your app drawer to find and "relaunch" them. Gingerbread only had a small pop-up window that showed the icons of the latest 6(?) apps you've used, which was handy enough, but I love having the screenshots in ICS.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomsons26:
Those are only incomplete kernel sources that no one got ever to boot without source modifications.

The GT-S5830i the phone uses CPU for graphic rendering and it does not have a GPU and uses 90%(with the exception of the display RAM, internal memory) of the same hardware as Galaxy Y - proof? you can boot Y's ROM's on 5830i and vice versa.

You heard wrong. The i model uses a Samsung CPU that's faster than 5830's, but because its used as a GPU replacement too the speed difference is minor

IF the Ace "i" has the same hardware as the SGY then......

CPU = Broadcom BCM21553 ARM11 832 MHz processor, ARMv6

CPU Data sheet = http://www.datasheetarchive.com/BCM2155*-datasheet.html

GPU = Broadcom BCM2763 VideoCore IV LPDDR2 128MB

GPU Data sheet = http://www.datasheetarchive.com/Bcm2763*-datasheet.html

According to Broadcom the processor/gpu is capable of encoding and decoding at full 1080p resolution.

I found this website of the SGY being overclocked to 900mhz.... he/she also supplies the kernel that he/she modified....if its any use to us.

BCM2763? Nope

The i model and Galaxy Y has Broadcom VideoCore IV

HW

there is not much info what is it.

And interesting fact that's useful for gaming on these phones is that it supports only OpenGL ES 1.1, just as any software based GPU, because higher OpenGL ES version is not possible without a GPU.

OpenGL ES 1.1 was used back in Android 1.6 Donut days in 2009/early 2010

The original Ace has Adreno 200 which supports OpenGL ES 2.0 and is used in the cheap version of Xperia Play and a lot of other smartphones even today

OpenGL ES 1.1 VS OpenGL ES 2.0 is the same like DirectX 7 VS DirectX 9c

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Di@mond:
The SGY and the SGAi does not have a separate GPU chip.

Instead it has a Broadcom BCM21553 multimedia baseband processor, that not only has an integrated ARM11 processor running at 832mhz, but also a separate GPU within the same architecture. The same as the Qualcomm msm7227 and Adreno 200 chip.

While Qualcom chips are classed as "system-on-a-chip". The one chip die that handles the processing, graphics processing, usb interface, camera sound.

The Broadcom classes its chip as a '3G phone-on-a-chip'. Im assuming, reading the literature, that this chip takes care of the Processing, Graphics, 2G, 3G data connection and voice data........ although it doesn't mention anything about usb interfaces ect.

It also dose mention that it supports OpenGL 2.0

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Di@mond:
There must be some code missing from the kernel limiting the capabilities if the chip. Damn Samsung. Which is why we don't have a complete kernel to compile.

Imagine if we had a "fully working" kernel....... It would compete with their more expensive products.

Here is an article and Youtube video I've found showing the awesomeness of the Videocore gpu (its dated 2009 and shows Videocore III not the new Videocore IV that our phone supposedly has).

http://www.geek.com/articles/mobile...-video-and-gaming-to-mobile-devices-20090112/

I think that the SGAi and SGY are a base model to see how this chip performs in the real world, and future phones made by Samsung will be using this chipset to its full potential, and that might be why they haven't released a fully working kernel.

Then again this is all speculation and i could be wrong. :D

Well....come to think about it......They have misrepresented the phone....Its advertised here in the UK as a Galaxy ACE..........which leads the public to believe that it has the same hardware profile as the original ace. Its only when its bought and someone tries to flash a custom firmware onto it do they come to the realization that its a different phone with a different hardware profile.

I bought the phone in the understanding that i would be able to upgrade the firmware and tweak the phone to my satisfaction, but alas.....it wasn't to be.

Hopefully in the future someone can unlock the kernel to unlock its performance issue.

Oh btw i have managed to extract the 3 files needed to flash this phone via Odin.

The file is from sammobile.com

GT-S5830i United Kingdom 2012 May Android 2.3.6 S5830IXXLD3

The only difference i can see is that the lock screen is different, ill try and sot out a screen shot later, the phone feels faster and battery lasts about 2 days with normal use.
