Theres tutorials for how to deodex, zipalign etc. So you can do it yourself. Its not hard

Click the thanks button on my posts if I helped!
[Galaxy 3 General] Jason-EX:
If you want that, I highly recommend you to use stock (JPS/JPU) ROM with Fugumod v2.4 or Ultra. You won't be needing all of those features.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Hi,

Last year I rooted my SGS II, unlocked it from Orange and installed Villian ROM (which I have bee perfectly happy with). I've just ordered my new upgrade SGS III (on T-Mobile), which will be here in a few days :D

As a result i want to sell my SGS II, but hink it would be more attractive if it were a stock samsung ROM.

I'm a bit rusty on flashing etc as it was quite some time ago that I rooted/flashed the phone, so I just wanted to ask if I can simply download the stock ROM from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1544487)? and flash using Odin to replace the custom Villian ROM?

Don't really want to brick the phone!

My SGS II is as follows:

Originally Orange I9100P

PDA: I9100XXK13

Phone: I9100XXLPB

Model: GT-I9100

Kernel: 2.6.35.11-ninphetamine-2.0.5+

VillianROM 3.0

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
yes u can do that , but as u stated its 'Original Orange I9100P', flashing the rom from that will wrk for u san u may not use the 'NFC' function though properly:)

so it would be better for u to flash a proper one meant for I9100P, for NFC to wrk properly:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Thanks Sun90, though what's NFC? and where would I find the correct I9100P ROM

Sorry to be a noob, but I guess that is because I am lol :laugh:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
hey NFC is for 'Near Field Communication'.

tell me what exactly is ur Model of GS2

is it I9100 or I9100P :)

u can check it in Systemsettings>about phone under Model number or under the battery of ur phone, do check and rewert back:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Thanks.

Yes it is a I9100P

I would just like to get a fairly standard Samsung ROM working on there so it has stuff like allshare and swype etc. But obviously still want it to be unlocked.

It is branded I9100P on the back cover next to the Orange logo, so I guess that is what it is. Although the phone reports it is an I9100, but I guess this could be down to what I done to unlock it (though for the life of me I can't remember how I did it).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
whell then i would suggest u to go for ICS v4.0.3 rather than 4.0.4(since its buggy and not stable as 4.0.3) u can find the v4.0.3 in the second post of the link u stated in your OP(original post #1), dwnld the unbranded one of v4.0.3 and flash the same thro ODIN:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Thanks Sun90,

So this one:

I9100BULPC Download (Thanks To SamMobile!)

Base Firmware: I9100BULPC (4.0.3)

Region United Kingdom

Carrier: Vodafone (VOD)

Build Date: 2nd April 2012

Modem: BULP6

CSC: VODLP8

Change List: 332484

CF-Root v5.4 LPC: Download

and will this mess up NFC or will it still function OK?

Cheers

Edit: Whoops I missed that it was Vodafone branded. Can't seem to find an unbranded 4.03 UK ROM
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
u can check this one which is unbranded 'I9100XWLPG' :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Is the unbranded uk one not XWLP7.

I dont know about nfc,but both my phones are unbranded and thats what they were on.

And youd probably get more dosh for unbranded.

And where are the orange logos on the phone..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Yep, I agree unbranded would be better.

I'll check out the quoted ROM.

Thanks

Sorry, forgot to add logo and model number are on the back of the phone next to the speaker
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Is it black.Ive got a spare back housing and cover that Im not going to need/use.

Edit:-Ive just checked and if you wanted to change the rear housing,you would have to take out all the components and put them back in the other housing.

So it wouldnt be worth the hassle....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Many thanks for the offer. Yeah, as you say, probably not worth the grief.

As long as I can get a standard type ROM running and unlocked I'll be happy.

My new S3 arrives Tuesday, so I'll wait unitl then before doing anything with the S2, just in case of any issues as I don't want to be left without a phone.

Just out of interest, what is a mint S2 worth roughly?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Could be around £230-260.I only keep my eye open for cracked screen/dont switch on ones.

They can go for up to £160.

Just put it on eBay for a starting price of £200 or a buy it now for what you want.....or let it roll from 99p and get your mates to bump up the price...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] We5ty:
Heeeeeellllllpppppppp!

Flashed recommended ROM today using Odin and phone stuck at Samsung splash screen,........OH SHIZZLE!

I left it for about half hour, but nothing happened. Have manged to boot it to download mode, but now I'm at a loss at what to do next.

Hi,my wife got the HTC One S,the game was on it so i just downloaded te around 500Mb tried it out and now i want to uninstall it but there is no such option in Apps or when i go in Play Store on my apps it doesnt show Asphalt 6.can somebody help to delete this stupid thing from the phone?Thx
[HTC One S] invasion2:
If it isn't rooted, there is no way to delete it. You must root, go to a file explorer and manually delete the apk, or use Titanium Backup and delete it. This my friend is what we call bloatware - stuff no one wants but carriers get paid to put them on the phone. Another reason to root. Hope I helped.
[HTC One S] MadJoe:
You can get rid of the 500MB file by going to your sd card and deleting the GameLoft folder, then go into your app manager and select the "All" tab, find and disable Asphalt. Not exactly uninstalled, but mostly gone that way.

[HTC One V] shubhamsizzles:
Hi guys,

I saw many threads popping up in the Q & A section about applying updates on a stock rooted ROM. So i though it would be helpul if i shared my experiences and also clear some misconceptions.

This Thread mainly applies for those looking to upgrade from 2.09 to the recent 2.22/2.24 ! It may or may not work for any previous updates.

Q) My phone is rooted, Bootloader unlocked and CWM installed. How do i update to 2.22?

Ans.)

1) Backup your root using Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper.

2) Flash the stock recovery for your area using the All in one kit (or you can use the command line if you're familiar).

3) Download the update, click install, sit back and enjoy !

ITS that simple.

Q) What do i do if i cant find stock recovery for my latest version?

Ans) The recovery does not seem to have changed from version 1.56 to 2.09. You can flash the older recovery provided, you've checked your region is correct.

Q) Do i need to re-lock my bootloader for the update to take place?

Ans) NO! You don't need to re-lock anything. It updates perfectly fine with unlocked bootloader. Just flash Stock recovery !

Q) Do i lose my apps/settings/cache?

Ans) Since its an OTA from HTC, you retain everyhting!

Q) Will i lose my root if i update?

Ans) You will! Thats exactly why you're advised to backup your root.

Q) My updates fails with a red triangle and exclamation mark, what did i do wrong?

Ans) You need to understand that during the update, several stock apps are patched. If any of these STOCK APPS ( the ones that came with ya new phone) are uninstalled/frozen/meddled with, an error will pop up.

Q) How do i identify the cause of the error?

Ans) When the red triangle pops up, press the Volume UP, Volume DOWN and LOCK keys at the same time for a second and release. You should see the cause of your error. Try to restore/unfreeze the app thats causing the error. If that is not possible, try posting your error here to see if experts here can help.

All the stock recoveries can be found on this forum. If however u've a doubt, i'd be happy to help.

This guide is not perfect and may contain errors ( i've tried to make it complete to the best of my knowledge). I'm open to suggestions and questions
[HTC One V] tomhrusk:
Hi, thanks for the super explanations - last two really helped me:cool: - at least I found the reason why my phone does not want to Updates:confused:.

I send thanks to your instructions displayed mistake - I phone from T-Mobile Czech and the application of course I deleted it:p - it is useless.

Do you know if this can be downloaded somewhere, possibly where I got all this ROM mentioned in the error? I deleted more applications, so it probably will want to install these

I watched a lot of the internet, but I found none:rolleyes:.

Sorry for my English ...
[HTC One V] shubhamsizzles:
Well, if you made a backup if the current Rom/apps, then just extract and install the apps. Or else, I think you can extract the app from ruu if your version. You'll have to do it for each of the apps you uninstalled. That's gonna be a hell of a job, if u ask me. :(

I think its better you stick to the current software, or of you really wanna update, reset your phone via ruu. And then update.

There any stock ROM flashables that are rooted and custom recovery already set up.

can only find Stock with Root, or stock with Odex or Deodex with and without recovery. Just stock rooted with custom recovery
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] belly1026:
If all you want is a customer recover and you already have stock rooted zip that you want to use, just flash that. Then all you have to do to get custom recovery after rooting is download goo manager and flash TWRP. It won't take you an additional two minutes doing this.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Megadave123:
I have an AT&T HOX. Came stock with 1.85.

I rooted it using the "redbend" method described here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1709296)

(More or less, the pulling SIM card business wasn't part of the steps when I used it, but the root was successful).

I am using SuperSU to manage root access by apps.

I have not done anything beyond that.

Now, I understand, at some point, AT&T is going to force a 2.20 update on me.

My primary concern is to avoid losing root.

(I have enabled the "preserve root across OTA" in SuperSU, but not sure if its effective or not)

I've looked at the howto's for SuperCID, unlocking the bootloader, etc, and I'm not sure which I NEED, and which are optional, and/or what the pros/cons are of each...

I'd like to stay as close to "stock" as possible, but I want to ensure that I can keep root.

I'm still within my AT&T contract, and would really prefer to avoid bricking the phone.

I'm wondering what the recommendations are as to the minimum steps I should take to keep root in the event the OTA is forced on me?

Can I pre-empty the OTA by installing this? ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1812459 )

If so, what is the safest method for installing it?

FWIW, I am a linux user, and I am comfortable with adb as well as the command line on the phone itself.

I have no windows systems, so any special tools I'd need other than adb I'd have to find a linux version.

I don't need "one click" methods, in fact I'd prefer to see/perform the individual steps and understand what they are doing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] DvineLord:

Dont have to unlock to flash roms?

This document,

http://onexroot.com/one-x-root/root-any-htc-one-x-windowsmaclinuxattinternationalone-click-method/

Near the very bottom, suggests:

For AT&T HTC One XL and alike, if you want to install custom ROMs, you don’t have to unlock your bootloader but simply flash custom recovery in fastboot.

Is this accurate?

My ATT HOX is currently rooted, and I now have SuperCID. I assumed I would need to unlock my bootloader, but I havent done that yet.

Can I install this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager

and then use it to install the "Stock Rooted AT&T 2.20.502.7" here?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1812459

And if I do that, will this avoid AT&T OTA'ing me?

On a relatated note, would the SuperCID survive the OTA, allowing me to unlock the bootloader afterward, even if I hadnt done so already?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Completely false. You cannot install custom recovery without unlocked bootloader. For the safety of your device, I'd suggest sticking with XDA, and not Googling random websites. That website obviously has incorrect information.

AT&T isn't going to "OTA" you by force. You have to accept the download, then accept the installation. Cancelling either of those will prevent the OTA from being installed.

If you want to update to the stock 2.20 firmware without running the OTA or RUU (and therefore keep the ability to flash kernels and radios), than yes, the ROM you linked is the method I would suggest. But you would need to unlock the bootloader, then install TWRP before you can flash the rooted 2.20. Also keep in mind there are newer (than 2.20) firmwares already posted in Development (2.23, 2.29, etc.) in similar pre-rooted form. Not to mention custom ROMs based on 2.20 or newer.

SuperCID survives OTA. But the 2.20 OTA has a new hboot, which fixes the hole by which kernels and radios can be flashed from recovery, so my recommendation would be not to install the OTA.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Megadave123:
FWIW, I didnt google that site. It was linked to from an XDA post. I't didnt seem right to me, which is why I asked here

Ok, that is VERY good to hear.

BTW, thank you very much. I read somewhere that ATT could/might force the OTA, and I've been worried about losing root ever since, but not quite ready to (presumably) completely void my warranty with a bootloader unlock.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I think bypassing the user acceptance dialogues for the OTA install would be a violation of how Android fundamentally works. It would be a serious security issue, as it might allow rogue software to be installed on your device without your interaction. I seriously doubt AT&T would institute such a thing.

The user confirmation of the OTA might be a liability thing, too. If the performance of the device is adversely affected by the OTA (happens to some people) and the OTA was forced by AT&T without the owner having a choice, it would seem to me that AT&T has to accept the responsibility. People can claim its AT&T's fault, and demand a replacement device (since AT&T technically installed the software remotely). By making you confirm the OTA installation (and giving you the chance to opt out), you pretty much are volunteering to install the software and accept the consequences.

In theory, unlocking the bootloader voids you warranty. But more than a few folks on here have gotten warranty replacements from AT&T (after unlocking the bootloader), without issue. Sometimes in-store (within the first 30 days) without them even checking for the bootloader unlock. No guarantee that this will always be the case. But just throwing it out there. Its still up to you whether unlocking the BL is worth the risk in your own case.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
I dont remember but isnt hoxl supported by goomanager? As long as your rooted you can install a recovery from it with a locked bootloader. I always reccomend unlocking but im pretty sure its not a total necessity to get twrp recovery
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] E.Cadro:
The hoxl is officially supported by twrp and can be downloaded from goomanager. I do not know if you can install a custom recovery without an unlocked bootloader. I would be interested to know if this can be done as well.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
when you try to push a recovery via fastboot with a locked bootloader it will fail due to invalid signature I don't see how goomanager would be any different.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Megadave123:
Is there any harm in trying it?

If I install "goo manager", and let it do its thing, and the locked bootloader prevents it from doing so, there wont be any other side effects, will there?

If I come off as a complete noob at this - its because I am..

This is my first Android phone, and I *really* want to avoid bricking it, so I want to make sure I understand as much as possible before I go

trying to do anything to it.

Also I'm still wary of unlocking, mainly because of the whole "will erase your phone" bit.

I'm not yet fully comfortable that I know how/what to fully backup all of "my" data on the phone so as to facilitate easily putting it all back.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] beaups:
I'll answer some q's here.

1.) you cannot flash a custom recovery from hboot with a locked bootloader

2.) you CAN dd a custom recovery with a locked bootloader. However your device will be soft-bricked.

3.) you CAN install custom ROM's via dd right from android. This is how we did it back "in the day".

4.) you "might" be able to get away with dd'ing a custom kernel with locked BL, not not sure. In fact, I'd bet it will softbrick now that I think about it.

Anyways, the SAFEST way to do it is via unlocking the bootloader and installing your roms from custom recovery.
