[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Oh yeah and I think I only replaced maybe 5-10 bin files - anything with _camera at the end, debuggered a few that began with "h" can't remember the exact names right now
[HTC Sensation] Sherlocks:
Did not change /etc /lib files? Only /bin?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Some etc files - I sort of merged them then deleted the useless ones. Libs, see the post before the one you quoted :)
[HTC Sensation] XxXPachaXxX:
For the bootloops, probably the problem is in lib/hw and probably the problem is the audio lib
[HTC Sensation] V6-Maniac:
Maybe stupid me...

But i didn't replace any libs or bin files.

But discovered that replacing some framework files (trail and error) caused a full reboot without any errors.

Don't know which one caused it to boot.

Have to start all over from scratch but it has something to do with core, ext or bounty jars.

I used the Russian rom post earlier here as comparison...
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Ha got it last night! £14.99 UK :) Got a dell pc with the upgrade offer! So far I am liking it!!!

Hey Pacha! Are you trying a sense 4 build? A full build and dedicated kernel from you would be awesome :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
OT

I've seen worse, first thing I did was get the start menu back but the only thing I dont like is that Microsoft got rid of Aero and the hacks to get it back are buggy because it was disabled within DWM, apart from that is great :)

/OT
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Agreed but compared to windows 7 I am finding it much faster. I don't mind too much aero is gone! I do quite like the metro tiles. But may change back to the original start menu as well!

How is your port coming along?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Havent tested latest version, copying over to SD card now :)
[HTC Sensation] XxXPachaXxX:
starting from ruu, to boot up only these files are needed:

system/bin/rmt_storage | wpa_supplicant | rild

system/etc/dhcpcd | firmware | soundimage | wifi | *.csv files | gps.conf | calibration | media_codecs and profiles .xml | vold.fstab

system/lib/hw folder (keep only the .default.so files) | modules | libhardware_legacy.so | libhtc_ril.so | libril.so

sytem/usr (add files for sensation, simply compare to other rom)

adjust the system/build.prop file to fit sensation hardware (board,model,product,architecture entries)

Seems all :)
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Camera wont work if you dont replace camera libs and bins though ;)
[HTC Sensation] XxXPachaXxX:
what are the bins for the camera? :)

remove audio lib in system/lib/hw and see if the rom boot up without audio
[HTC Sensation] Namit1994:
Would someone mind pointing out to me which app files in /system/app are bloatware (available in the market)?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Google maps, google +, gmail, flashplayer, YouTube, spoundhound, dropbox, probably more. Also some are useless for custom ROM such as google feedback, HTC feedback, myreportagent...
[HTC Sensation] Namit1994:
Just to check, what boot.img did you use to attempt a port? I'm using the one from 3.33.401.53

I use 2.89.651.2 (4.0.3 Sense 3.6) libs. HTC EVO 3D (has some hardware with HTC Sensation, but 1Gb RAM and 1188 processor clock MSM8660 (Sensation MSM8260), HTC One S has this processor too). I ported 1.11.401.101 (4.0.3 + Sense 4.0). But this 2.15 give me error with libs.
[HTC Sensation] ivicask:
Dont replace libhardware_legacy.so (You need to hex edit original one to point to right Firmware WIFI files), for audio/video you need to replace:

libmedia* 3 files
libaudioflinger
libstage* 16 files
libvo* 24 files

Also system/etc copy from previous working build just to be sure

Than watch for log it will tell you missing input methods for framework.jar /media (like MediaPlayer.smali)

Than replace media smalis in framework until errors are gone and you should have boot

[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Just a heads up - if anyone runs into this site, that ROM is not true Android 4.0.4, byte-by-byte comparison shows every single lib is the same as current sense 4 ports (android 4.0.3)
[HTC Sensation] Sherlocks:
thanks your information.

i try compare it to ville c2 ruu.

how about your Sense 4.1 porting?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It was going great... Until I attempted to be clever and fix more than 1 thing at a time without keeping backup or track of which files I was swapping, the result, back to square 1 :(
[HTC Sensation] Sherlocks:
i confirm BoA Rom isn't Full Ville C2 4.0.4. Almost same 4.0.3 and bugs.

Yet i'm not show anyone to Full Port 4.0.4 except to him who is ivicask.

I believe you will be able to Port.

good luck.

of course i try this work.
[HTC Sensation] Lionhardt:
Wait so is the elegancia 4.1 Rom not a true sense 4.1 android 4.0.4 Rom?
[HTC Sensation] kotag82:
Elegancia is Ville (one s S4) port, 2.31 base
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
It's sense 4.1 but like the BoA ROM it uses android 4.0.3 libs so effectively you are getting sense 4.1 and android 4.0.3
[HTC Sensation] Steve0007:
Elegancia base is the "Russian" Sense 4.1 base which is android 4.0.4.

Based on HTC 2.31.401.5 RUU C Ville (Android 4.0.4)

It includes some android 4.0.3 packages, but overall this is a clean android 4.0.4
[HTC Sensation] bigmoew:
:eek: So is it 4.0.3 base like Viper or not?
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Diff the lib folder, Russian ROM and therefore elegancia have over 90% libs exactly the same (byte comparison) to viper, the rest of it SFAIK (app, jar etc) is 4.0.4 but it uses mostly 4.0.3 libs
[HTC Sensation] Soul_Raider:
DELETED
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
Are we talking about the same ROM here? I was under the impression that it was the same one that was discussed within the first few pages of this thread?
[HTC Sensation] memnoc:
I seriously beg to differ Steve, both russian and chineese base are "fake" (with all the respect for the devs who made them), and contains so much libs and all the framework from 4.0.3 which makes really hard consider them a clean 4.0.4 build...I got a 4.0.4 workin base, just fixing some bugs (didn't manage to fix data which is major one and i can't publish anythin till i fixed that, if I ever fix that), and trust me when i say that we share like the 20% with those two bases...that's not android 4.0.4 definitely, although is seriously difficult to boot correctly the full new C2 base..maybe hybrid base is the way this time..i dunno, we'll see if it worths workin on the pure one rather than took what you need and put it in our old 1.11 builds
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
That's what I thought...

Ok phone specs first

SGS I9000

Devil Kernel

I9000XXJVT Baseband Version

JRO03H Build number

Not sure what else is relevant.

My problem is that since I upgraded to a Jelly Bean rom (can't remember which one) my PC no longer recognizes my phone. It won't charge when connected by USB. I've tried different USB ports and checked that the cable is fine with another phone. Also, the micro(mini?) USB port on the phone is fine as I can charge from the mains.

I can't find the phone on Device Manager/My Computer and not even Odin recognises it when I plug it in. What's wrong? I've installed Kies to try and reinstall drivers, that hasn't sorted it out.

What do you think the problem is and how can I fix it?

Also, I have an idea of which ROM I may have used, but I'm not allowed to post links yet. If you search "How to upgrade the Galaxy S I9000 to Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean via a ported stock official ROM" in google, it is the second link that comes up.

Thank you for your help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xsenman:
Try a solution from My Android Solutions

But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....

(Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] moppy89:
Ok, tried pretty much every thing there except messing with hardware. Nothing has worked.

Is there anyway of transferring files wirelessly to the phone? I can live without USB connection, but I do need to be able to stick music/files on there.

Thanks for pointing out that link btw, I'm sure it will be useful again when something else goes wrong >_>
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xsenman:
you can use a managing tool to do it by wireless or bluetooth, best is My phone explorer from My Android Collections

or even Mobile Odin to Flash a ROM

I'm having an issue that resulted from an attempt to flash a rooted kernel. I'm not sure what happened, but the result is an inability to enter recovery mode, and no connection in download mode. Normal boot ends in a screen resembling a scrambled cable channel that reboot loops. I do have heimdall and Odin installed at this point, but i had connection trouble before I tried Odin. I have done some searching but found nothing describing the static screen. If you require more info, I'll provide what I can.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
That pixelated screen means u do not have the i897 Gingerbread Bootloaders installed. So u need to flash the Odin or Heimdall i897ucKK4 one click WITH Bootloaders included. Then u can proceed to use regular Odin to flash the .tar version of the KK4 Corn Kernel so that u can get Root and as well have CWM Recovery that is included in that kernel, so then u can proceed with flashin a dev rom of ur choice.

See my signature link below, if u r on a pc or in a web browser, for the links u will need as far as what i just instructed u should do. :thumbup:

Thanks for all the info, however some of the topics placed in various links need an ajustment for Linux.

Don't waste your time using Ubuntu because java is not natively supported anymore for the 12.10 release.. I suggest using opensuse or fedora and visiting java.com to download the rpm as deb are not supported and this is much easier for a newbie to do than to build a deb package from sources..

Just a little tip, if you want to run hiemdall, you will need java runtime somehow, opensuse I know personally 12.2 came with an option to install the java dev kit, which is just as good as java runtime and includes a runtime with it. This will allow you to install android dev kit, another good tool to have for modding.

Samsung Captivate wont completely boot

Hello, I'm having a problem with my Samsung Captivate. It loads all the way to the last screen where the S comes into formation and it says Galaxy S at the bottom, then it restarts and repeats the entire startup. I used "I897UCKK4 CONTAINS Bootloaders" to see if it might fix the problem, but it's still doing it. Any suggestions please? thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Maybe a bad download. Try a fresh download. One without bootloaders. Since the bootloaders should be flashed to ur phone.

And try a different micro usb/usb cable. Also check in the phone's micro usb port to make sure it is free of dust, dirt, etc. And u could also try a different usb port on ur pc.

Make sure ur battery has a good charge as well.

Hope one of these helps.

My experience to get back from soft brick

Just want to share my experience here:

I had captivate with CM10 installed and decided to flash it back to stocked rom and trade it in for new HTC One ($100 :),

First I flashed it with Odin and somehow when it reboot, it stuck at AT&T page (flashing every 3~5 seconds), and I can't get it back to download mode through all the key combinations recommended 4-2ndtwin without success (I did try all of them).

Then I got a 300kOhm resistor (measured it and showed 298.9kohm), without the hassle to make the USB jag (which was a mistake), use the legs to touch the 4 and 5 of Cappy's USB port, after multiple tries (average about 3 minutes effort that have one success), I was able to get to download mode.

I then tried to flash the "I897UCKK4 Odin One Click - Stock, CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe" got from this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3

The flash stuck somehow in the middle of flash, it was probably after partition (not 100% sure though) per odin message. I waited for about one hour and decide to pull the battery out. When I reboot, it was not showing AT&T logo, instead went straight to phone --!-- computer screen.

Some posts suggested it is another download mode, but for me, it was not in download mode. Odin no longer responsed when I plug in the phone. Again, I tried all the combination in previous post to get it back to download mode, as well as tried multiple times (should be more than 10 successful trys) using the resistor, it all went back to same phone --!-- computer picture.

I almost gave it up but decided to give it last try by making the jag, it was not that hassle at all after I used a cheap car charge line (it was not even need to be cut, the plastic on the USB line was kind of like clamp shell, after removing four small clips, it completely dissembled and show the 4 and 5 legs, I wished I should have done it earlier!).

Then I connected the 300kOhm resistor to 4 and 5 legs of the USB line, put battery back to phone and plugged the jig into the phone, it still showed me the phone --!-- computer picture, and my computer was not response at all! It seems I had exhausted all the options and may have to give up the $100 trade-in credit.

I decided to switch the sequence and gave it last effort. Pulled the battery out, plugged in the jig, and put back the battery. Guess what, download mode appeared! I then was able to flash the stocked rom (the same rom I just mentioned) back to the phone and everything went well this time! I now can see the $100 gift card from HTC :laugh:

Thanks for all the information for this forum and you guys are great!

CM10.1 Boot Loop / Computer Won't Recognize In Download Mode

Hello all -

I think my Cappy has given up the ghost, but I thought I'd throw this out there to see if anyone had an idea.

Yesterday my Captivate (running CyanogenMod 10.1 M3) started looping the boot up screen. It's done this before, and when I just leave it, it will eventually start up normally. Not anymore. Plugging it in to charge starts boot looping the battery charging screen. I can't get it to reboot into recovery. I have tried every possible combination listed above. It just boot loops faster.

No problem, let's just flash the ROM again, right? It still goes into Download Mode fine. Except. I can't get a computer to recognize it at all. PC running Win 7 gives me an "USB device Not Recognized" error. Neither Odin nor Heimdall can see it. I have tried as much of the advice given above in this thread as I understand. I have tried all the different USB ports. I have tried three different machines. I have tried Win 7 and Mac OS X. I briefly tried Ubuntu but I'm too much of an Ubuntu noob to get heimdall running on it. I have tried two different cables. I have taken out the SD card. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Samsung USB drivers. I don't know how to uninstall Odin and Heimdall drivers. Maybe someone can help me with that?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zer0blivion:
I have an SGH-I896 and was running CM10 for a while with no problems. ROM Manager said there was an update so I downloaded CM10.1 RC5 and the Google apps package. It installed, but now when I boot up my phone I get "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped." followed by "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped." I can clear the errors, but the second one keeps coming back. If I boot my phone with USB connected to my computer, I can turn on mass storage, but that's about all I can do.

I tried all the methods to boot my phone in recovery or download mode following the advice in this thread. I was able to get it to boot into download mode using a homemade jig, but then I couldn't get my PC to recognize it. Not wanting to wear the battery down too much, I popped the battery out to turn it off.

Now when I use the jig, my phone just boots to normal mode where I get stuck in the endless error message loop. My homemade jig isn't soldered (I've just been holding a 300k resistor between the pins), so I haven't been able to try inserting the battery with the jig connected. I figure I'll solder the resistor onto the jig and try that next. Does anyone have any suggestions? Am I out of luck?

Update: I soldered the resistor on to my jig, connected the jig, then put the battery in and success! I got in to download mode.

Messed up 3 button recovery/download and CWM

Hi I received a Samsung Captivate as a backup option oh 4 months back or so. I use an sgh-i717 and have absolutely zero experience with the captivate. The other day though my Note starting having charging issues so I decided I better set up the Captivate in case the need actually comes for it. Well it already had CWM Recovery and a custom rom, I believe Continuum. Well I wanted to change the ROM but the information I was reading wasn't working and in my frustration I must've messed something up, but I do have step by step log that I wrote during whole process. I've already been reading a bit here but hoping someone can help speed me to info I need since I'm so utterly clueless to this phone.

Ok my current state is this. When booting the phone it displays AT&T screen then a screen that has the word Talon on it and there it remains. The USB apparently stopped working right before it was given to me although unsure to cause. Now the Download/Recovery 3 button combo did work but somehow I broke that and so now I cant really do anything without some help.

Ok here is log of what I did.

1. Boot into CWM

2. wipe data/factory reset

3. Cache wipe

4. Format SD Card

5. Format Cache

6. Format Data

7. Format System

8. Wipe Dalvik Cache

9. Power Off
