V4 is outdated. I recommend you to use v6. You can examine backups with that too, you just need to set the backup format to tar. dsixda's kitchen can handle it.

okay serious problem

i was on CM10.1 and restoring back to stock ICS firmware using ODIN

but I'm stuck on the bootscreen where the SAMSUNG logo is on screen

Downloaded the indian firmware and flashed it using ODIN v1.83

what did I do wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
Don't get panic just download the latest ODIN V3 and flash it again....
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pankajramnani:
Is rooting necessary to flash a kernel? or just CWM enough?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
CWM is enough.....
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pankajramnani:
Ok.. Thanls for that.. One more ques.

If i install ics over an unrooted galaxy r via odin, and then want to flash ardatdat's kernel, how will i do it? Please help.. Total noob this side
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] The-Droidster:
Flash ICS as usual via odin, then flash CWM via odin(refer to adams recoveries thread in dev section) then flash ardatdat kernel via CWM.

Hope this helps!

Thnx! :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pankajramnani:
Thanks! Just curious to know that if i reboot after flashing the rom, and before flashing cwm and the kernel, will the emmc brickbug do anything?

Sent from my GT-I9103
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
Ha ha nothing will happen just go ahead ok, when you wipe data with unsecured kernel then only brick bug will come into picture.......
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
Not at all buddy. Kernel may erase eMMC when only you delete/wipe data & cache using CWM. just flash using ODIN & then CWM. Flash Ardatdat's Kernel V4 or later for removing eMMC bug.;)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pankajramnani:
Perfect! Now i am totally sure of updating my phone to ics!

Is there a basic version of ardatdat's kernel with just the emmc bug removed and nothing else changed?

Sent from my GT-I9103
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:
V4 is stock one. You can flash that one as per your requirement.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pankajramnani:
Finally updated! Loving it! :) ;)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
So after feeling confident enough to try and root my phone (I'm on the newly released 4.0.4 for India - updated via Kies) I referred to the "how to root ICS 4.0.4" thread in General section, but it's giving me some error like:

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed

This was for the file posted by mj.vikram in OP. I then tried some other file which user Kartik_Pat which gave the same error.

Later, I tried to flash ardatdat's ICS kernel v4.0 and v4.1 using the same method, but it resulted in the same errors.

Steps I've been following:

1) Paste .zip in sdcard

2) Power off phone

3) Reboot phone in recovery mode (power on, and then home+volume up)

4) Select .zip file to flash

5) Error appears, so go back

6) Reboot

Can someone help?

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
In CWM Toggle the Signature Verification and flash it

or

Just flash Ardatdat's kernel it will take care of Rooting....
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
How can I toggle the signature verification in recovery mode?

I already tried using the same method to flash ardatdat's kernel (both v4.0 and v4.1) but it gave same error about signature verification... :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
CWM -> Install Zip -> Toggle signature ...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Okay, let me start with my shamelessly noob doubts:

Please go back a few steps. Whatever I have tried is using stock recovery.

I've been trying to install CWM but I'm confused - I've tried the guides created on XDA (tried XDA wiki also) but there still remains some confusion.

So far I've gathered this: I have to install ROM Manager from Play Store. Then reboot into stock recovery - and install some "update.zip" (not sure what this is).

Also, when I installed ROM Manager and opened it, it told me "you don't have superuser.zip in /system/bin/" or something - meaning I have missed some steps.

Umm... can someone hold me by the hand and teach me how to walk?! :)
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
Stock Recovery :confused: .....

ROM Manager will not work with Galaxy R use ODIN to flash CWM first, use this Guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1406664 ....
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Stock recovery = (ICS) Power off, press power button; immediately hold volume up+home ==> it will boot into Android Recovery.

I will read about flashing CWM using ODIN and get back if I need help.

Thanks! :D

I got the above error while flashing CWM v4.0.0.2 using Odin v1.85.

:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
Is there some compatibility issue involved?

I have already upgraded to 4.0.4 using Kies, so is there some specific ODIN and CWM that I should use?
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] mj.vikram:
use odin V 3.07 download the CWM File from Custom Recovery thread in Dev Section ...
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
I'm still stuck and unable to move forward... :(

Here's what I've been trying:

1) Reboot phone into "download mode" (for ICS, I think it is complete power off --> press power button --> hold home+volume up)

2) Open ODIN v3.07

3) Connect phone to laptop via USB

Now, the ODIN doesn't detect the phone right now. Therefore:

1) Exit from download mode and restart phone in normal mode

2) Open ODIN v3.07

3) Connect phone via USB cable

4) Phone gets detected now, so add the CWM .tar file for ODIN in the PDA

5) Press "Start"

6) Error

This was yesterday. Today, my phone isn't getting detected by ODIN at all - but this might be my laptop's problem.

I will fix my laptop - but can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?! :'(
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] D™:

It's power on+menu+volume down buddy.

Now for flashing cmw follow op and question no 4.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] :
WOW! I was pressing volume up, which was the problem :noob:

Anyway, the Odin v3.07 detected my phone in download mode, and I selected CWMv4.0.0.2_ODIN.tar under "PDA" and hit START.

However, when I now enter recovery, and select "Install zip from sdcard" it's getting stuck. How do I come out of this? Power button or remove battery?

Anyway, I'm just happy that I was able to clear the first hurdle with the help :beer: :beer:

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] pankajramnani:
yes I've checked them.. none of the apps are huge enough to take up so much of space! Ann moreover I have very few apps installed..

Does it have something to do with the ICS update? Maybe some update files have got stored on the system storage.

Just try this App and clear the cache, It may help you but i am also not sure just a try....

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexibrowni:
Okay so basically I decided to root my Kindle Fire. I have rooted my android phone and my iPod before so I wasn't too worried about it, but it's gone horribly wrong and I need major help.

So here's what happened:

I got my root from rootkindlefire.com and followed the necessary steps (i'm running on 6.3.1)

It got halfway through and froze and I stupidly unplugged my kindle

Then it was stuck on this screen with a yellow triangle with a flame in it and at the bottom is said press power button for recovery, but when I pressed it nothing happened

So I went messing around online, in my drivers, etc. I ended up deleting my kindle drivers (like the original ones) and now my kindle is freaking out.

I watched this other tutorial on rootkindlefire.com and tried to follow the steps on how to unbrick it but when I managed to get into the recovery (i can't remember what it's called? blue screen with options like install, mount, reboot, etc.) and put the zip drive he said to, in there... i couldn't see it.

I then downloaded KFU and managed to get my kindle to reboot, but it is now stuck on the "Kindle Fire" screen. I can turn it off, get into recovery, etc. I cannot get it to move past the start up screen however.

I do not believe I am in fastboot, but one of the sites I was on could have misled me. Anyway... HELP! please... I'm sad:/

I followed all the steps and everything worked just like it said....but when my kindle rebooted, it is still stuck at the kindle fire screen but now there's animation...which it did not have before.

Any suggestions?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
If your getting animation and it doesn`t go any further this usually indicates a broken system which TWRP are you using ? If you are using 2.3.1.1 there`s a problem with how it formats best you revert to an older version 2.2.2.1 or older then it should work for you. Full wipe except your external storage/sdcard, refalsh rom and gapps. The proper methods for wiping are also provided in the link I gave you.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Very good point though make sure your using the newest version of KFU 9.6 the older version uses burrito root which no longer works on the Kindle Fire. Really though alll you need is a bootloader and recovery rooting is obsolete.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jma9454:
First off, definitely listen to Thepooch and Josepho1997. Next, do you just want a rooted KF running the basic 6.3.1 firmware, or will you be switching to ICS or JB?

Next, is the blue screen you mentioned the TWRP screen? (TeamWin screen with 8 different choices)? If you are, then go to (I think) the bottom right and select mount, then mount system or USB or whatever it says. After that you can add files for a custom ROM or whatever you want through your computer. I forgot to mention that you need to of your KF into your computer.

So, I have the done the Alternate method for rooting, however, when run the kfu, it says its online but boot status is unknown. I can not get it to say any different. What am I doing wrong?

I was looking for and answer, but i can find anything.

So i have 2 questions about swap.

1. Can i have multiple swap files? Like eg. Zram+other swap file? Or two swap files (one on /cache other on /sdcard). Made via 2 apps. One (on internal memory/sdext) would be working all the time, second (sscard) only if i had needed it.

2. Is it possible to lock app in swap? I mean that app should only work using swap - no real ram. I was thinking about music player or some widgets.

Hello

I'm used to the flashing and all that for the Samsung devices (galaxy s series) but I'm confused when it comes to the Xperia series. This is my wifes phone that I want to update since it's on it's knees.

From what I've read there are ways to improve the storage space since that is a problem for her, constantly running out of space.

I've been reading up on some custom roms but perhaps stock ICS is good enough with that storage improvment.

So can I download the latest ICS and flash it with the "flashtool" or perhaps there are some nice guide out there that will help me out.

Will the root carry on with the update?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] hossein7292:
no root wont carry with this update

and i can see your wife's phone is running GB

in my own taste and experience

i suggest not to move to ICS

you're gonna feel more lags cuz it's heavier than GB

first of all unlock the bootloader (search the forum)

now you can flash custom kernels (using flashtool) around the forum that are much better than stock ones (not all kernels work with all roms)

its time to use custom roms

again

in my own taste and experience

GB: codename 9.3 (now on it)

ICS: ice cream pureness

were the best

That does sound like a neat trick to stream your phone's video playback to - or even control - an Xbox system, actually. We're all Wii here because it's most kid-friendly, but I'm impressed with what you have described.

I'm guessing it's not due to the custom firmware on your router that you mentioned, since Xbox SmartGlass is supposed to offer this function with most smartphones, correct? Or, have you seen elsewhere that some smartphones can't hookup to SmartGlass well?
