CASE IN EFFIN POINT!!!!

I already posted the answer to this a few days ago!!!

Gimme a minute to fire up my laptop where the answer lies....

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 PM ----------

Ok.

You need linux to do this.

Requirements; PERL, IMAGEMAGICK, etc.

Find the programs (search forum and/or google) "mkbootimg" and "split_bootimg.pl". Now for "mkbootimg", there are multiple versions of this floating around. You need the one that supports the parameter "--ramdiskaddr".

So your "unpacking" goes like this;

$ ./split_bootimg.pl boot.img

$ mkdir ramdisk

$ cd ramdisk

$ gunzip -c ../boot.img-ramdisk.gz | cpio -i

Now you're going to find in there a file called "initlogo.rle". That is the file that needs to be replaced. You can either pull one out of the factory boot.img, make your own, or use the one that I'm going to add to this post shortly, which is my favorite... "bendertux". Seems appropriate, since bender is a robot, who is something of a hack, and tux is... well... tux.

There are writeups (google search) for making your own initlogo.rle, so I'm not going to bother adding that here.

To "repack", it is like this;

Starting FROM within the "ramdisk" directory....

$ find . | cpio -o -H newc | gzip > ../newramdisk.cpio.gz

$ cd ..

$ ./mkbootimg --cmdline 'androidboot.hardware=qcom user_debug=31' --kernel boot.img-kernel --ramdisk newramdisk.cpio.gz --base 0x80200000 --pagesize 2048 --ramdiskaddr 0x81500000 -o newboot.img

At this point, you will have a brand new boot image "newboot.img", which you can write in your favorite manner.

Note: remove the last four characters ".txt" from the file name. Added because this forum software sucks.

How to unroot Relay?

Does anyone know how to unroot the Relay?:confused: If so, can you provide details please. I want to return the phone to T-Mobile and keep my myTouch 4G.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] onebornoflight:
Should be as simple as flashing the stock unrooted image through odin and finding out how to reset flash counter.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RazoE:
If you haven't done the KIES update, do it. It'll unroot you.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] classicrock31:
Unrooting solved.

So I was able to unroot by performing the KIES firmware update as suggested by RazoE. But first I downloaded Terminal Emulator and typed the following:

su

echo -n '\x00' | dd obs=1 count=1 seek=4193796 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0

This reset my count from 1 to "No"

Thanks to everyone who helped.:highfive:

URGENT: Hostile forum

And now they are becoming hostile and shutting down relay threads.

Time to step it up a notch.

Everybody go here: http://www.xda-developers.com/contact/#urgent

Write a letter to complain.

Below I wrote, either resend it, modify it, or write your own.

Subject: URGENT: Forum for Samsung Relay T699

Body:

Samsung Relay is one of the very best phones available. It is a high end dual Krait, with a lot in common with the Galaxy S3 T999. Many people have been making requests for a dedicated Relay forum on the requests thread located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1660354 . At the moment requests for Samsung Relay fill the TOP FOUR ALL TIME MOST REQUESTED devices list, previously, this was five, and previously, the RECENT most requested devices list was also filled with requests for Relay. Nobody has been offered a RESPONSE, yet along an explanation for why there is no forum available for Relay.

More recently, because we have no place to discuss this device, moderators have begin CLOSING threads made in *similar* device forums, like HTC Vision General. I find this particularly hostile and inappropriate, since we do not have any place to store our discussions.

We have nowhere to store, discuss, and develop for this phone. A lot of information is being lost because IRC doesn't log. We have many very competent developers working on this device, yet progress is very slow because we lack a forum.

There are forums in existence for devices that have far lower activity than we have. Fewer posts than we have accumulated, spread across different, yes incorrect, forums. Devices like HTC Radar, Samsung Focus S. Samsung Focus 2, Nexus Q, LG Optimus L9, and HTC One VX. Surely, if these devices deserve their own dedicated forums, then we do as well.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] kinfauns:
The suggestions in the quoted post above are improper and a misuse of the contact system.

It should be no surprise to anyone that those threads posted in the wrong forum are being closed. That's neither inappropriate nor hostile. That's part of keeping the forums in order and organized. If there was a Relay forum, I don't believe any of you would appreciate it being cluttered with posts about a completely different device.

The New Device Forum Requests thread is the proper place to ask for a new device forum. I understand many of you have posted in that thread, but just yelling out the name of your device is not the way to bring attention to it. Include the following information in the request...

- reasons why you believe such a forum should be created

- evidence of existing threads with development discussions or projects

- links and evidence supporting the case for the creation of a new device forum

- your case for why it should be created with supporting arguments

- why having a dedicated forum would be beneficial to users and make XDA better

- arguments on why this is a good thing in general

Like any request, you must "sell" the idea as a good one. Post with the above information in the request thread and PM me the link. I will forward it to the appropriate people responsible for determining whether or not the device forum should be created. There's no guarantee and the device ultimately may not meet the requirements. However, this will provide the best odds for you to get a forum for your device and that can only happen if the right information gets to the decision makers.

I'm sure others could find more, information scattered about XDA. I have looked around a bit an collatted the information that I could find into the link in my signature. It will be an ongoing project for me.

The community has asked for it many times, it would benefit CDA because it would bring in people into the community at large andd further expand the knowledge pool surround the Krait S4 and it's variants. It's such an awesome little device that shares many of the same things as the S3, and has a few that it doesn't, should be ignored.

Devices that aren't even on the market yet have a forum, we would really appreciate a "home base" for our budding development.

Edit: Well, we need more information. Post links to other closed (but useful) threads here so either I or one of us can write something to the powers that be to hopefully get us a forum.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] SpaceSpeed:
Hello fellow Relay 4G fans,

I'm looking to purchase this phone, but I always check to see where ROM development is before doing so...

Quick questions:

1. How are we looking on support for ROM development? Is there enough interest in the community?

2. At the very least, is it possible to get a rooted stock ROM going? (unless it already exists, don't know)

Thanks guys :good:

P.S. - Put in a request on the new device forum thread
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] onebornoflight:
As of right now we have a team of 4 or 5 developers (Team ApexQ) communicating on IRC, the interest on this phone is still growing as Tmous JUST started offering it as a replacement for the HTC Doubleshot (T Mobile Mytouch 4G Slide) recently.

1. We have CM9 at about 95% with a recognized developer from the Cyanogenmod community (Kornyone - actually one of the heads of team DS over on the Doubleshot forums) working on it (In conjunction with Nardholio, Teferi and the rest of the aforementioned Team ApexQ) as well as CM10. Ideally we'll find out about a JB update soon to expedite that process. Interest in this device is growing as word gets out that it's a quality device. I also messaged a developer for the Collective about some ports and got told they'll look at it once we get CM official, which I think we should be able to achieve. ::crossesfingers::

5 developers is enough to start with, and could honestly carry the device for a long time lol, not that we won't welcome anyone who wants to participate of course.

2. As far as the rooted stock ROM we have a link to a rooted system image in another thread, nobody to my knowledge has deodexed it and debloated it, but it's there along with a list of stock bloat and apps it's okay to remove. If I had the machine and the knowhow I'd go ahead and make a slimmed down stock rom myself, and probably V6 supercharge it as well. I've also read some talk about a few other ports in the works but I can't recall where I read it.

And as far as a request in that forum - thanks! We appreciate it.

Speaking of V6... if anyone has managed that could they post a downloadable patched services.jar and services.odex for this device? Lol I haven't had access to a PC with everything I need to run the Ultimate Patcher and the web script doesn't do services.odex as well.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] SpaceSpeed:
Thanks onebornoflight,

That's exactly the info I was looking for... As you can see from my sig I'm currently using a Doubleshot (and 4.75G nannerphone). I love phones with slide-out keyboards, but unfortunately they're increasingly difficult to find. I'm a T-mo prepaid 4G customer (I hate contracts), so I'll need to purchase a T699 on the feeBay, unless someone in the community has one they're willing to part with at a decent price (just checking).

As soon as I get a T699 I'd be more than happy to help with testing and modding.

Thanks guys, and keep up the good work!

Hi everyone. I've had a look around and couldnt find the answer to my question.

Basically I have a website and I use Google to provide a custom email address. For example if my website was XDA then my email address would be lazee_wolf@xda.com

I've tried and failed to add my email address to the email app on Android. My previous two phones were iPhones and they had no problem with the email address, they added the custom email address easily.

It seems weird to me that Apple's iOS accepts Google's custom email addresses as standard but Google' Android doesnt seem to. Could anyone help me set this up? I'm sure I'm not the only one!

On the new 4.2 'what's new' website from android it says

This makes me curious. Searched already for that, but it looks like only devices for notebooks including an Intel wireless chip are supported right now.

But I'm looking forward to project my nexus 10 screen wireless to my TV.

This is called Miracast. Essentially, international standard of the Mac's Airplay, or Intel's WiDi. Though I have heard its not quite ready yet on Nexus 10.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] yumcax:
I'm pretty sure Miracast is going to be integrated into WiDi. Also, the guy I talked to from Google said the Nexus 10 will ship with Miracast enabled.

But what I'm really wondering is, can I use a WiFi enabled device, or something plugged into a router (My PC) as a receiver, without buying a $70 box? If it's just a WiFi protocol, why shouldn't this work?
[Nexus 10 Accessories] arrtoodeetoo:
I have yet to see this confirmed for the Nexus 10. You say a guy from Google says it has it, but other people are reporting that they can't find it on their devices. Is it a software thing, or is the wireless dongle required? I'd love to learn more about it. Would be great for presentations and stuff.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] arsonizt:
So far this supports Miracast but Ive read the reviews on Amazon and it seems the device isnt quite ready.

Soon as I get my N10 Im heading out to get this and post back to see if it does indeed work and if N10 does have Miracast enabled.

My understanding is that miracast is a point to point wifi, no router involved. My thoughts is that they do this for bandwidth issues.

Yes, you can multi-task.

I recommend using NFC Task Launcher and Tasker to make this possible.

Yes, the Note II supports NFC technology.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
Best place to get your tags.

I like these tags over the Samsung ones due to the fact they are hard plastic instead of paper backing.

There is, however, one specific task that I have found requires root. I normally only run GPS while in the car, so I set up a task to turn off WiFi, turn on Bluetooth, and turn on GPS. However, NFC Task Launcher requires root to automatically enable the GPS. Once rooted, ensure super user grants NFC Task Launcher root privileges and you should be good to go!

The only problems with this phone ( and all recent samsung products is in past 5 years), were wifi issues(weak signal and wifi calling error) and the audio quality from the camcorder. Both Issues were resolved with the Jelly bean update though. . The audio playback and recording feature is also pretty top notch now. My only complaint that I could find, is that VOODOO Sound app isn't available for our devices...yet. Its coming though!! The S3 is definitely your best choice! There is supposedly another update coming in december or January to 4.2
