[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris247:
Hi,

I need to upgrade my Galaxy S.

Currently, I have this:

- Model number: GT-I9000

- Microsoftware version: 2.1-update1

- Bandwidth version: I9000BVJF3

- Kernel version: 2.6.29 root@SE-S603 #2

- Version number: ECLAIR.BVJG2

Can you let me know how I can upgrade this ? How do I have to start ?

I have installed Samsung Kies and sync the phone with it. I expected to be able to do a firmware update thanks to Samsung Kies. But Samsung Kies doesn't seems to offer any firmware update !?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris247:
Can you give me links for dummies on how to flash my devices?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cb-10:
I dont know if it works fine when you are still on Eclair.

I've updated first my sgs to 2.3.6 with kies. You must open Kies in admin mod then it should works fine. If it doesnt you can backup with Kies, or rather kies restores it. Or you flash a firmware with odin. Unfortunately I dont know a guidance in english, but here in the forum there are certainly many of them.

If you are powerfull in german language, you can use this one: Here

It is for CM9, but it is the same approach for another custom rom.

I am having difficulty finding the thread here and I saw a few websites but not sure if I trust them. What is the best method, how-to for someone that has never rooted an android device before (done many iphones). Any good picture step-by-step procedures anywhere?

Thanks guys. I searched but had a hard time finding it here vs Google. Here is one I found, but unsure about it.

I was going to say something mean but I decided not to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nizmoz:
I still don't see instructions anywhere on that page on how to do this root. Pretty sad I am getting better responses on other Android sites than this one. Plus what I do see is his rom has issues with 4.1.2 update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gvndeb60:
You amaze me but I will try one more time to help.

Look at the link I gave you in post 2. Download the app in post 1 of that thread. Install it and follow the instructions from that thread. They are there and detailed. You press a few buttons and are rooted. There is no ROM on that thread.

I say this in all seriousness and am not trying to be mean, but you need to stop and think before you move forward. If you are having trouble reading this thread and the one I linked to you, then you probably don't understand what to do without causing damage. Read, read, read, read, and then read some more before you go any further. There are also numerous threads in this forum giving detailed step by step instructions.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] yeloway:
There is a guide on Android Central with videos may help too! Same for process for the 4.1.2 update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] UrbanLagoon:
If you are having trouble understanding All those easy steps that are laid out for you. You should do research before rooting. Some things include learning what you can do when you root your device. It won't take long if you have some background in editing your phone system. But by the looks of it your going to seriously mess up your phone. And even if you are getting better responses on other sites. If you don't learn to respect people here you will be confused because every site that talks about rooting or provides a rom will lead you back here. This community is huge so learn to embrace and read threads before attacking our fellow members.

just follow the video and you're good to go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nizmoz:
I did the root, but removed it since it broke my camera. So I need a root that does not break my camera and that doesn't require replacing those files as I saw online many not recommending it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] spycedtx:
Do the root by itself. Don't patch the exploit, as that's what appears to break the camera. I believe there's an option to undo the patch.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wargear:
Simple easy to follow took less than 5 minutes... as opposed to my htc inspire 4g which was a pain in the ass! Before you root anything ask whats the design goal..identify the risks and BACKUP everything and make sure you know how to restore it! Lots of incredibly talented folks here it's ok to not know what your doing but not ok to not know who to ask before bulling ahead and making an expensive mistake!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] UCLAKoolman:
Maybe this is a dumb question, but people say to backup your device before you root. I thought that making nandroid or titanium backups required root... So how does one restore to an unrooted device without first rooting?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] just_visiting:
I've never done any sort of backups prior to rooting any phones in the last 3 yrs. Everything u need to unroot are available online.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] planoman:
Probably not before rooting. Using the Exynos Abuse apk, you will root in 5 seconds. It will put Super user on your phone and you can get Titanium Backup and then backup all user and system apps to your SD card etc. You can then debloat apps etc. You should probably uninstall the app with TB and keep it for a few days to make sure your phones works properly before deleting the app. Before flashing a ROM you should always backup incase something goes wrong you have something to flash back to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] yeloway:
Yep. I just used GoBackup when unrooted cus it's simple. Backup all apps and SMS and texts.

Then root.

Then nandoid backup via recovery menu.

Then you can flash a ROM if you want. :)

with all due respect... i didn't see any attack other than the one's directed towards the op.... and he's right... the instructions were well less than instructive... i thought his reaction to the responses he got was rather mild considering.... if you're going to help people... then help them... don't condescend and make jokes among yourselves concerning their lack of knowledge... to be honest... the subsequent responses he later recieved were far more helpful then the initial one... this is the help he should have been given from the beginning... explaining things to people as if they already know isn't helpful at all....

trouble with Oden and Chainfire links

I have tried rooting but my computer will not recognize the link what so ever. I lost 3 Samsung Note 2s to someone swapping the first motherboard out for a bad IMEI motherboard. I put my SIM in the device not thinking and it locked out my personal device as well. I now have 3 Note 2s needing rooting, but my Pc will not acknowledge the chainfire link or Oden links. I think one problem could be the version of Java I am running. Meanwhile I was attacked with numerous malware issues on my 2 Pcs. Anyway I will not give up with all this. Don't want to brick any of them so any comments would be really helpful. I would rather root on my Macbook Pro.

For some reason my rotation has stopped working and i can't seem to fix it. So far I have:

Restored to stock .23

Cold booted 3 times

Factory reset on stock twice

Auto rotate enabled

Used ultimate rotation control from store and that works

Checked sensors and those seem to be functioning

Any help is appreciated.

[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
You did pretty much everything that we could do. However, I have an idea, how about download this third party "Screen Orientation Control by eflow inc." app, once done open up notification and set it to portrait mode, then set it to landscape mode, then finally set it to off (auto) and see if it's working, if it stills not working, there's not much we can do except to return the device for repair/exchange.
[Asus Transformer TF700] codyvance:
Damn, I was hopeful, but it still won't rotate... It is weird too because at some point I was able to rotate, so I cant see it being a hardware issue, but I guess I will need to have ASUS repair/exchange.

Thank you for the suggestion though

Do I need to post a link to Azrienoch's N00B introduction video, where he outlines NO SWEARING???

This includes vulgar language and crude humour. Also, bear in mind that while we do ask that users speak English on the XDA-Developer forums, the person you appear to be picking on is of a nationality that most likely speaks a language other than English, so he may not fully understand some English yet... (Google Translate is not reliable most of the time, either).

On the other hand, Mr. N00B who can't search and post in the right section,

Please watch this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmvCpR45LKA ), then watch it again. Afterwards, look at your post, then reflect on how many guidelines that Azrienoch (rather emphatically) set down you have broken.

Now, both of you quit your fighting! This is not the kind of image or rep that our beloved forums need to be displaying... So, yeah... Peace, Love, Respect, Loyalty and Honour, people!

FULL STOCK LG ICS roms V30A & V30B

This is for people that want stock experience with the possibility of root, busybox and init.d support, but don't want the blingbling or tweaks from a custom rom.

These are full stock roms, meaning it is still odexed.

Modifications are help tools and have no effect on the stability and performance compared to a OTA updated.

​

INSTALLATION

ICS unlocked bootloader required with ICS partition layout.

Custom recovery for ICS.

Full wipe if coming from a different rom.

Install with custom recovery.

It is best to use the V30.. baseband for this.

V30B and V30A are different, first thing I did this morning was check them again.

V30A got more code then V30B , this is probably because V30A needs to support a wider region with more providers.

The strange thing to me is that LG gave it the same Baseband number 1035.21_20121130.

So it is possible that depending on the region you live in V30B or V30A is better.

To be very clear the ril of V30A and V30B are 100% the same so it can't be that if you get better connection

V30A

(CWM installation)

​

-Build date: Nov-30-2012

-EU region (open)

-Build for the following countries:

Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech, Denmark, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, France Caraibes, France Reunion, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Montenegro, Netherland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Swiss, UK

V30B

(CWM installation)​

-Build date: Dec-18-2012

-ESA region (open)

-Build for the following countries:

Algeria,Angola,Bahrain,Iran,Ghana,D.R. Congo,Iraq,Israel,Ivory coast,Jordan,Kenya,Kuwait,Lebanon,Nigeria,Oman,Palestine,Qatar,Saudi,Senegal,SouthAfrica,Syria,Tunisia,Turkey,UAE,India.

I will add any new LG stock release in the future , so if you got a stock LG KDZ file just link it for me.

Hi everybody, I have a question for u.

I really confuse to install it. Im stock rooted 2.3.4-V20s

Baseband is 1035.21_20120521

I wanna upgrade my phone to V30b, However how can I do it? What should I do first?
[LG Optimus 2x] wals46:
Both 30A and 30B are distributed multilanguage even each of them has a different region distribution.

Thai language is already included in 30B, the same of Italian used by me.

Civato, maybe you should explain in your first post that region does not mean multilanguage options.
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
First,

you should read a lot my friend.....and get the AIOT....allinonetoolkit, download the baseband (if required)download the ROM....

but i would suggest you to read as it will help you understand this process well....which will help more than anyone else....

Please dont take it as an offense mate
[LG Optimus 2x] mesutziya:
Thanks SREEPRAJAY.

I already have problem with allinonetoolkit, I know how to do it but I should upgrade baseband and also i should change partitions from old to new layout and after all I will use cwm to install this rom.

However I confused that which one should be first? Upgrade baseband or change partition.
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
the second one first mate

Then flash BB then ROM,

Hope it is ok

If you got problems with this you got a problem with your phone.

I've not flashed this rom I've used others and others have not been stable hence why I was asking how stable this one actually is, is the stock good enough to be used as a daily driver?
