[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] madmajd:
Hello everyone,

My friend (who isn't very experienced with android) wants me to root his Bell Galaxy S2 HD LTE SGH-I757M. The only thread I found about this phone is this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1740188 . My main question though is, Can this phone be converted to work with T-mobile network frequencies like the Skyrocket? I'm assuming that the modems from the T989 and the I727 will work on the SGH-I757M? Any input is greatly appreciated.

thanks

Changing Modem on i757m to work with wind mobile or t-mobile

Hello,

Wondering if you can help guide/instruct me on how to change/install a t-mobile modem on my i757m.

Would like to make it work on Wind Mobile or Mobilicity. I did some research and found that t-mobile's samsung note 879's modem can be flashed on my i757m. I tried flashing that modem in ODIN but keep getting fail.

Would you be able to assist me?

Thanks.

Samsung i757m

Hello and thanks for your reply.

I'm fairly new to Android, switched over from blackberry couple months ago.

Do I have to root the phone before flashing the radio/modem or just flash the zip file in recovery mode through SD card?

Also my i757M is on gingerbread right now, would it make a difference if I flash the modem from t879 from t-mobile?

Please, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
I'd learn how to use odin and then find the ics rom for your device and flash it. Then worry about the modem.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] maxxcool7421:
Thanks everyone, i bought a 16bg nook tablet (for the 1gb ram) and booted from the SD successfully. but now have a couple more questions....

1) partitioning, i get, its easy in gparted or the windows manager, but for the life of me i do not see a quick guide on how to partition *correctly*. i see 5 partitions on the sd card, and the guide says to expand 4... but it wont let me. i have not tried gparted yet, but i assume if i cant expanded it now (in windows) that i am doing something wrong and will just bork it up in gparted. so.... any links to working partition guides ?

fyi, the partition tool in cm7 in the "cm7 settings" only gave me the option of "512 megs"... so not sure.. but i think the installer made the wrong partition sizes ? dunno... im new and assuming alot based on alot of windows crap and limited linux interactions...

2) installing TOO the device itself: in the one guide above it does not mention rooting, so i assume when you boot to cm7 off a sd, and then go to "install image" that it will root, lay down the new image and all is well... am i correct in that assumption?

3) recovery, i know i will kill the install eventually. im the kind of guy to tinkers and has to re-install windows and backtrack on a regular basis. what i have not seen is how to restore to factory. is it something like my htc glacier? like this link implies ? http://nooktalk.net/nook-faq/nookco...-how-do-i-do-a-hard-reset-system-restore.html

4) if i unplug the usb cable.... i no longer boot into cm7 on the stick... is there a way to not have this happen aside from writing over the image ?

thank you all for your patience!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] HeathicusF:
My wife's Infuse is currently on stock. She's interested in trying a custom ROM, but my research indicates that there are a lot of tethering problems with current ICS and JB roms for the Infuse. The ability to tether (mobile AP) is vital for us. We pay for the tethering plan on her phone and that is our home internet connection as neither cable nor DSL is available where we live.

Can someone recommend a good "daily driver" Infuse ROM that is stable, lean, with working tethering? ICS would be awesome, but GB would suffice.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andros11:
The best way to know is to test them. Cm10 latest build has tethering fully working as of latest build.

GB should be the most stable, but JB has been great for me, plus it is amazingly fast.

Look in the OPs for what is working and what is not, and for screenshots, and that should give you a clearer idea.

Sent from my sweet & buttery Infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Smokestack360:
I don't tether so I'm not sure which is best for that but might I suggest bigjoe2675's ISET sticky. You'll find great info and links to nearly every Infuse ROM here on XDA I believe. Like andros11 stated research and testing will get you the results you are looking for.

Sent from a de-FUNKt Infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HeathicusF:
If it was my phone, I'd be all for the "download and test until I find one that works right" method. I have a Captivate and I flash new ROMs pretty often. But my wife doesn't want to go through that process. She's had Zeus and CatyRom previously, but had issues with them and just wanted to go back with stock and "quit messing with it."

I have looked through the threads and typically see something like this:

That doesn't really tell me much. Trying to research what does and doesn't work in ICS lead me to discover that tethering was one of those things that "doesn't work."
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andros11:
I believe it was written like that since CM10 was really meant for an experienced crowd who should know what worked and what didn't in ICS, but I definitely get you. Scott might want to make that part clearer soon.

Look in Entropy's CM9 for a complete list of what is working and what is not at ICS level.

If none of the issues would mind her daily phone use, then I would say to give CM10 a try and hope she doesn't come back to you later for help :p

Sent from my sweet & buttery Infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] psal217050:
Make sure to read Bigjoe2675’s ISET page. Going from stock to GB to ICS to JB and maybe back can be a real learning experience. Lots of opportunities to soft brick your phone. I have a lot of experience in doing that. :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Goneeuro:
Emancipation. Everything works and is as close to perfection as you can get. I was on uniporn forever but never tried to tether so I don't know if it works. But it was super stable and my DD for a while. Now I'm on cm10 and loving it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jester12345:
A lot of things work now I have tried looking for what does and doesnt. I would recommend cm10 whether its paranoid jb or unofficial cm10 jb. CNA seems fine also. I say those ROMs cause they are always updated . And if our moving from stock why not go all they way to jellybean its equal if not better then ICS. Just keep in mind if u goto jellybean u need to flash a ics rom first. Like entropys cm9 . I always flash it twice the first time. Then reboot and flash jelly.. just a habbit for me .Good luck on finding your rom
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HeathicusF:
I have soft bricked my Captivate more imes than I can remember! I'm a pro at that now and can do it and recover without batting a lash! But soft bricking her phone makes me nervous. I'm trying to do the research but the minor differences leave me a little unsure. I think I would like to put her on CM10.

She is on GB (2.3.6) right now (not rooted and no cwm). I need to flash a kernel from post 2 or 3 of his thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1524081

Then I can flash Entropy's CM9 from this thread, right?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1601844

How does "firmware" differ from a "rom"?

After that just flash CM10 from this thread?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1776129

Following all directions closely, making backups of apps, data, efs, etc. That pretty much cover it?

Are bootloaders anything to be concerned with? On the Captivate, you have to have GB bootloaders before you can flash JB. Since she's already on GB, I don't guess that is an issue. I just want to make sure there aren't any caveats like that I might be overlooking.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andros11:
That would be the right path. Just make to follow each Roms flash instructions and you should be fine.

Not having GB bootloaders on either ICS or JB would leave you with a hard to read rainbow recovery.

If you updated to GB using Kies though, you should already have them.

Sent from my sweet & buttery Infuse
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HeathicusF:
I didn't use Kies. After trying some custom roms before, I used the Heimdall one click to get her back to stock 2.3.6.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HeathicusF:
Is there a way to see which boot loaders I have?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jester12345:
What company u have for service?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Smokestack360:
The only way i know is to flash an ICS rom and see if your recovery is all "rainbow-y" :D ...honestly I'm not sure except for that way.

My guess would be: if you're not sure if you do and you did not get GB 2.3.6 through Kies you probably do not.

Not having GB bootloaders will not adversely affect your phone operation just boot animations and recovery. It will look like static or rainbow colors. Some peope live with it and are able to navigate through recovery without GB bootloaders as a bad bootloader flash is one of the few ways to bork this phone...not always but it does get a little hairy trying to save it. The bootloader flash itself is not difficult as long as you read up and follow the instructions precisely.

After u root. Use cm9 to flash I do it twice wipe cache delvik and system wipe. Then u know our on ICS boot loaders. And yes u can do it right from gingerbread. Then after u do cm9 . U can do cm10

For telling what boot loader or on. I see cwm black looking for gingerbread. Blue for ICS and nicer blue for jelly
[Samsung Infuse 4G] HeathicusF:
Ok, here's my plan:

1) Backup. Titanium Backup, Contacts, EFS (backup script CWM-EFS_BACKUP.zip), etc.

2) Flash Stock GB (UCLB3 Heimdall - Stock_SGH_I997_UCLB3_Repartition-One-Click.jar).

3) Flash a second time to get GB boot loaders.

4) Flash Entropy512's DD Kernel (SGH_I997 Entropy Test Kernel-One-Click.jar)

5) Flash "Clean Wipe" script (CWM-Clean_Wipe_before_ROM_Flash.zip)

6) Flash Unofficial CM9 (cm-9-20120728-UNOFFICIAL-infuse4g.zip) - twice, wiping cache, dalvik, and formatting System before each flash.

7) If staying on CM9, flash gapps (gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip).

8) Flash Unofficial CM10 (cm-10-20120823-UNOFFICIAL-infuse4g.zip) and Inverted GAPPS (inverted GAPPS justinbean8-24.zip)

These are just the main steps. I have a folder for each step with everything downloaded and all of the instructions and links copied from forum posts. Also have some other things downloaded like Samsung drivers, an ICS Heimdall One-Click that was linked to a couple times, an EFS backup script, etc.

The ParanoidAndroid ROM looks really cool, but I think I'll wait until it's sync'd with the 8/23 update of CM10 so I know tethering will work. I may just leave her on CM9 until then, I don't know.

EDIT: I just realized... she's not rooted, so I'll have to do that first thing so I can install TiBu and do a backup of all her apps and data...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Pony Express:
Plan looks just fine.

Any snags, you should be able to get help here.

Have read it is ok to re-install apps with Titanium, not a good idea to restore data. Let the ap do that when you run it.

I Think some library file which Sony have that can show the Bangle Language correctly. I don't know which file. or maybe some graphic engine files.

Developers you may know the perfect way.

I am thinking if we add the files and make it working then the language will show correctly.

If any Developer can have a look this matter then i am sure he/she can solve this.

I have been anxiously waiting for asus to post the jb firmware (us tf300t). I found it today, but now realize if i flash it manually i lose my root, backed up with voodoo and superSU or not. I then was reading about this dlpkgfile thing. Am i understanding this correctly?

It is the file that gets downloaded from asus when you check for an OTA, or when an OTA is pushed to your device

It then reboots, and uses the file to update the device.

It does not make u lose root?

So theoretically, I should be able to put it in /cache/directory and then`reboot my tab and it should start updating right? I know i need to make sure i get US version, backup root, etc. But will this work how I am thinking it will?

Oh and, I am not sure why my ota failed in the first place, i think i might have uninstalled a system app by accident without thinking. I am just plain rooted stock, NOT unlocked. I had also run the firmware for ics from asus website yesterday to get all the stock stuff back on my tab, then rerooted, and am waiting for JB update now :)
