[Samsung Captivate Glide] ericpeacock79:
Hi all,

So I got the txt message from AT&T about upgrade available.

So I opened Keis and let it update. (I have a whole seperate issue with Kies; it will only read my Glide about 10% of the time).

Once I FINALLY got it to connect to my phone, I began the update process. FAIL

fail, fail, fail, 4 hours of fail.

i've tried every recommendation from every post i';ve come across, including uninstalling keis, running reg cleaner, rebooting, reinstalling.

i've trie 3 diff version of the samsung usb driver program, whatever u search for on this forum and google, i've tried it.

The best I have gotten is for Kies to actually recognize my phone and begin the update process, a few times, I saw no progress bar on the phone and the Kies window stayed on 0%.

The first time I actually sw a progress bar on my phone, it moved about 1/8th of an inch and stopped. I left if overnight, and when I got up this morning, it was the same.

So again today, on a different computer, I created a new user profile and tried some more; nada.

So I'm so desperate for ICS on this phone, I tried using that one click release of the leaked ICS, same thing. several times of not recognizing the phone, then finally

the progress bar on the phone moved a little bit, so I left it for over an hour and it didn't move.

At least this time, I could see that it was hung on the bootloader part.

I've tried this on two diff Win7 x64 machines and an XP pro machine; all the same results.

interesting part:

Once last night, I kept my temp folder open while Kies was doing it's thing, and I grabbed this file:

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_Sgf7j8WktibEJ4NXVva08zYmM

(i couldn't find any free file share sites that would let me upload a file this big.)

This is the actual ROM (or whatever you would call it)

Kies downloaded a file and named it whatever.tmp, as soon as I saw it, I copied it and extracted the contents with uniextract - that is where I got this .tar file from.

So what can I do with this file to install ICS on my phone?

I did try renaming it update.zip and copying it to my sdcard, I tried to "install update from sdcard", but I get an error about it not being signed.

For anyone who doesn't want to download a 600+MB file, this is what's inside it:

boot.img

cache.img

factoryfs.img

hidden.img

modem.bin

recovery.img
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Aquethys:
Not too sure if this belongs in development. It's a question, but the file is development purposes :P. Anyway you can use boot.img and a system dump of the official ICS to make a flashable zip, or theme some system apps, etc. The possibilites are endless :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] enewman17:
You should be able to flash that with ODIN

Fact, this is the same file I downloaded from http://www.hotfile.com/dl/170800037/7fd1f5e/I927UCLH2_I927ATTLH2_ATT.zip.html

Worked flashing with ODIN on a unlocked Rogers I927R
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ericpeacock79:
groovy!!

so... what do i do in odin?

i've got it downloaded, but which option, etc do i need to select?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] enewman17:
Power Phone into DOWNLOAD MODE, Pressing POWER and VOLUME UP till it boots

Using ODIN 1.85

wait for phone to appear

Uncheck F. Reset Time (only AUTO REBOOT should be checked)

Check the box next to PDA

using the PDA button select the .tar file

Press start, sit back and drink a beer

Then apply CWM I prefer 5.0.27 "EXACTLY THE SAME WAY AS YOU INSTALLED THE ROM WITH ODIN" http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1458153 (it's not touch, but it keeps backups in img form rather than the .blob like CWM6. just make's it easier to handle backups.

In CWM "If you want root", apply http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip

In CWM apply the LH2 Keyboard backlight fix http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1848433

Its running pretty smooth so far, no major issues to report: but I had the camera giving me issues till I cleared data form the app. still gave a few stutters then the whole phone started running well after a few reboots and some settling time.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ericpeacock79:
Thanks for you replies. I appreciate it very much.

(here's something weird, when viewing post in thread, it stops after the word beer. I didn't see the other stuff until I clicked reply :-/ )

unfortunately, it's doing the same thing as before... ODIN is stuck on boot.img for about ten minutes now

any thoughts.... anyone?

I want ICS on this phone

SO

bad.

( would it be related to the fact that I substituted beer for southern comfort? :p )
[Samsung Captivate Glide] enewman17:
A few posts up I posted a link to a download of the new update that is what I used It worked perfectly. Extract from the zip and you'll have a .tar.md5 file which just makes ODIN Check the md5 sum before flashing
[Samsung Captivate Glide] enewman17:
I checked your files md5 sum to the .tar file I used, and they are the same cbd0c11c1aa578f6bcdb06099b5d3102 so you should be good to go flashing the .tar file you captured during the keis install. Maybe try flashing CWM first boot into it and format everything then try installing the rom via ODIN. Try a new cable and/or make sure the phone is plugged into a usb plug in the rear of the computer.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ericpeacock79:
same thing with that one... stuck on boot.img in Odin, progress bar on phone moved about 1/8th of an inch.

i left it overnight again, i just now got up and see it's not moved....

that makes me a sad panda....

i guess next, i'll try to do this on ubuntu, using heimdall....

arrrgh.:mad:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] enewman17:
That is a real bummer, I'm sorry it didn't work for you. It should only take a few minutes, I don't have any other ideas other than maybe try flashing the UCLG9 leak then re-trying to flash your tar file. The leak contains a new bootloader, I had flashed that a few weeks prior to the new update.

Also did you try flashing CWM with Odin just to see if it would flash seems like it's probably a computer problem rather then your phone.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] spamam1:
Hello,

Sorry to 'thread-jack' but hopefully a minor annoyance.

Can someone post just the 'modem.bin' file from the I927UCLH2 update?

FYI, in hopes of enabling 3G/HSPA voice calling on Galaxy Tab 10.1..

Using European Tegra 2 based phone modem (from I9103), 2G voice calling works.

Trying to avoid downloading the entire .tar for one file =p

To clarify - European Tab 10.1 users are fine; AT&T and Rogers Tab 10.1 users can currently use 2G only.

T-Mobile - apparently 'their' phone counterpart uses a combo of 2 modem-related files?

But I digress... (don't think I can embed links yet) thread is in Tab 10.1 Dev forum.

Thank you!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ericpeacock79:
i did try flashing the CWM and it did the same thing stalling after about one second into it, same with UCLG9 leak one-click executable. (at least using that told me it was stuck on trying to flash the boot image)

I'm about to build a fresh win7 x86 VM with nothing but .net and VC++ runtime installed, to rule out both my living room and home office comps as the problem.

if it still don't work, the i'll build a fresh ubuntu VM and try it with heindall

Thank you, enewman17, for all your help. it is really appreciated. :good:

if it still don't work, i will call Samsung and demand a replacement phone.

I used rom from 1st post and it's working flawless :) but is there any way to "super-duper" wipe this phone? after update I still have all my data, programs and even unlocked simlock. I will probably send it on warranty so I would like to have stock rom :P

edit: i think ICS is much slower than GB
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
Settings --> Back up and reset ---> Factory data Reset.....As it states this erases all data on the phone.

I'm getting it to boot up after cwmr but it hangs on the installing applications screen. Left it for an hour and still the same :(
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ericpeacock79:
are you kidding me?!?!

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!

ok, so here's what finally worked:

using a different USB cable that i found laying around.

for all of samsung's rhetoric about "only use the oem data cable" "never use anything but the oem data cable" "blah blah oem usb cable blah blah"

after trying this on like 6 different computers all with same results, i just found a usb cable laying around at work and decided to try it, just for the heck of it - IT DIDNT TAKE 5 MINUTES TO FLASH!

I AM NOW ICE CREAM SANDWICH!

seriously, FOUR days of banging my head on the wall, and it was the freaking OEM data cable that was the problem.

:silly::silly::silly::silly:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] enewman17:
It's always something.... Haha

Glad it's working now.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] phi11yphan:
Same flash problem here, same exact solution. Flimsy micro-USB cable was the culprit. ODIN would get partially through and almost always fail during SetupConnection or Initialzation or NAND Write Start. Wasted about 12 hours testing a dozen possible causes. Changed to the thicker OEM cord and BAM!

Thanks!!

Funnny what a cable could do lol

Many tutorials on rooting Samsung Galaxy S3's are for the SGH-T999. Will those tutorials work for the SAM T999? I'm not sure if my model number is SAM T999, but it does say that on the box.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] imheroldman:

Also, do you guys have any recommended tutorials for rooting my phone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
That is the tutorial I used for rooting my phone (my box also says SAM T999). It trips the flash counter. Which doesn't matter unless you need to return it. Very easy, impossible to mess up.

SAM-T999, SGH-T999, d2tmo, all the same device.
[HTC Rezound] a-jive:
Not without a lot of debate, I have decided to move on from the Rezound. I just wanted to drop a quick note to the community thanking everyone for their help and to our devs that did such great work with the ICS leaks and Sense 4 development!

This was the first android phone that I unlocked and it's been a lot of fun. Now don't flame me, but after getting the Nexus 7 I realized how much I prefer stock Google... so I've traded in for the GNex. It's a little too big, and the radio is kinda weak, but I'm ok with the trade offs.

If anyone is in the market, I have a sweet Rezound package on ebay.

All the best everyone!
[HTC Rezound] RoyalDrew:
Too bad you're leaving.. since HTC released the ics kernel source there are some pretty nice AOSP("stock Google") Roms out right now.. still have a few small kinks but they're being ironed out as we speak =)

Anyway, enjoy the Nexus...
[HTC Rezound] cincyelite22:
That is a sweet deal I'm sure someone will jump on that
[HTC Rezound] renzo.olivares:
to be honest you cant compare the nexus experience with rezound because the nexus aosp experience is so much smoother and bug free you cant go wrong with it, only phone that i can actually say keeps up with the nexus in aosp is the sgs3
[HTC Rezound] RoryHe:
i thought our aosp rom's are getting pretty good..

*looks at cm9 le noob rom currently running*

i don't see the problem, is the galaxy nexus smoother or something? i thought this was aight
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Agreed. It's like saying iOS runs so smooth on my Rezound. It's just not supposed to. It'll run better on the iPhone because that's what it's built for.

But when KLP or L* comes who knows...
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
KLP or K* ? whats that?
[HTC Rezound] renzo.olivares:
u cant really compare ur comment to my comment since ios is a completely different OS....of course itll run like crap on my rezound lol
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Lol whatever.... Touchwiz then... Touchwiz on an international HOX won't be as smooth as Touchwiz on an international SGS3. Vice versa with Sense...
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Key lime pie and whatever they call the L OS. I assume it will be licorice but you know how Google is :)
[HTC Rezound] renzo.olivares:
kinda the same as ur other comment lol of course exynos and msm8960 wont run good on tegra 3 =P but now im just trolling lol
[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Yea you are lol. It's a quad core processor with the same amount of ram. That's what matters more/less :p
[HTC Rezound] HowardZ:
I am with you!

My next phone will be a nexus purchased directly from Google to get updates directly from Google and always have the latest android os. I am generally pleased with stock rooted.

This will require giving up Verizon's network. If tmobile data isn't good, then perhaps will carry a Verizon jetpack.

I still have over a year left on my Verizon contract, so you are ahead of me.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] boe:
Hello,

I'd like to do 2 things but am not sure what to do to improve voicemails for me.

1. When I slide down to see that I have a voice mail, if I select it it prompts me for a password. I'd like it to auto enter it. I can dial my voicemail and have it put in pauses and auto enter my password but it would be much more convenient if I could make the notification icon do that for me. Had that problem with the nexus but was too lazy to do anything about it.

2. When the phone rings, if I ignore it, I still get the default sound afterwards - probably to tell me I have a voicemail. Not much point in having it do a default notification immediately after ignoring a phone call so if I could turn that off, that would be great. My nexus didn't have that - seemed like I had more options for sounds for specific events but that could be faulty wiring in my brain.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] boe:
I figured out the default sound - it was changing between my messaging sound and the default sound.

I'd still like to figure a way to avoid the password prompt in my voice mail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goober0122:
Not sure as I have never used the default voicemail on my Galaxy S3. I use voicemail through Google Voice. It is much better (In My Opinion) than regular voicemail.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] scottthreet32:
That's how I do it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] screwyluie:
i will have your children!

my god thank you!

this has been bugging the sh*t outta me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
Using google voice will be your best bet. These are the options you can choose to have using it.

1. You can access your vm via normal calls/prompts

2. You can have your voicemail transcribed and emailed to you

3. You can have your voicemail transcribed and texted to you

4. YOu can choose to do none of the above and just get a notification you have a voicemail and go directly to the google voice website and play your voicemail automatically via web browser.

None of the above requires a password.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] boe:
Thanks - I understand I can do it if I create a voicemail contact and call voicemail. My goal is to slide down notifications and click on the voicemail icon.

Hello..using latest LiquidJB..

Is it the Facebook app or the phone/ROM because it scrolls the feed horribly..sometimes not even responsive..the same with the web..

My Galaxy S2 TMO was much smoother than this device..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
Try upping the screen sensitivity, it's an option in that rom
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] paradoxiumwind:
Looks like this

Firstly: You need to be using a Deodexed ROM like Retribution. (I think)

Install this: Boot animation enabler.

Then get the animation from the attachment and do this:

Just put the zip on your SD card and use CWM to update with the zip.

select the option ( install zip from sdcard ) and ( chose zip from sdcard )

Might take a while to load the first time I think because it is saving files to the dalvik cache?

(correct me if i'm wrong, it's just that if I clear my dalvik cache, I notice it takes ages to boot up the next time I restart the phone, so I figure it stored the cache for that there)

You can make your own for your phone by following these instructions.
