I am having a similar problem to this post i have found but it doesn't fully answer what i need to do.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1965792

I have s-on still but dont understand how to change the recovery from clockworkmod to 4ext. I assume this is what i need to do so i can use custom roms as i already have super user and clockworkmod installed but can't write or remove a rom. (If there is another way where i don't have to change recovery this would be great)

I made a post on reddit too which may explain it better and shows links to guides where i have found some info.

http://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidQuestions/comments/1641lo/htc_sensation_xe_root_help_needed/

Sorry if i have asked an already answered questions but i can't seem to find it.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Look HERE

It will also help you install 4EXT recovery.

:)
[HTC Sensation] dllwurst:
AFAIK you need S-Off if you're using CWM. Download 4EXT Recovery Updater from 4ext.net and install it. It will flash you 4ext Recovery without having S-Off (4ext Smart Flash), so you can flash every rom you want. ;)
[HTC Sensation] DannyBLOL:
Thanks for both replies.

If i follow that guide to install 4ext do i need to manually remove clockworkmod first or will it overwrite that?

I take it after installing that i will need to follow the rest of the guide and then http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1614617 with a paperclip to gain s-off? After doing this i assume i should be able to install a custom rom?

Is this the best method or is it easy to just put on 4ext and install roms with s-on?

Sorry if this is a noob question but it seems a bit different to me as i have only rooted a htc desire and one x before and never had to use a paperclip lol.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The link I gave you ,will help you install 4EXT,which will overwrite CWM.

If you read the whole guide,you will see,that once you have 4EXT recovery,you do not actually need to s-off.

You can install any custom ROMS which match your firmware.

What does your bootloader say?

:)
[HTC Sensation] DannyBLOL:
That's great that helps me a lot! I haven't got the phone with me as its my friends but it was on 1.27 hboot unlocked with s-on.

Ill give this a go tonight and let you know how i get on. Thanks again!
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

With a 1.27 hboot,you should have 3.32 or 3.33 firmware.

You should be able to install any of the current crop of ICS or JB ROMS.

:)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Raneet:
Yes that is right.. We finally have the JB Firmware from Samsung for our GT-I9070. (Not for GT-I9070P)..

http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9070

Enjoy.. :)

Installation procedure:

1) Download the firmware from the link in the post..

2) Download Odin3 from http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1168421&d=1341114315

and run it with administrative priviledges..

3) Extract the firmware that you downloaded from the link in the post..

4) Turn off the phone, press and hold Volume down+Home+Power button until you get the Download mode. (Press the Volume Up to continue) and then connect it to your computer via USB. (wait until Odin detects you device).

5) In Odin put the extracted firmware under PDA and click on Start..

6) Wait until it finishes and restarts itself.

Note:

If your phone is not rooted, you do not need to wipe data and cache. Else after the flashing is complete and the phone restarts, it will go in a boot screen loop. Down worry. Here is how to take care of that:

a) Turn the phone off and then press and hold Volume Up+Home+Power.

b) The phone will go into the stock recovery. Wipe data/Factory reset and Wipe cache.

c) Restart the phone and the phone will go into setup with Russian language as default.

d) From the first screen itself, tap the drop down option and select English from that list and hit next. The rest will be easy to complete (as in adding Google Accounts, etc.)

P.S.: Since this is signed firmware, the binary counter will not increase. To root the JB Firmware, follow this thread after installation of the JB Firmware http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2087424

Yeah, it's very simple. Take rom from sammobile and flash it with Odin 1.85. After flash you maybe will need to wipe data/cache from stock recovery in case of boot loop animation.

1 Doubt

Hey guys, I have a small doubt.

My S Advance is not rooted or anything, so will this still work perfectly?

I dont have to root it do I?

And secondly the ROM is Russian, but from what I read it seems we have to select language as English and all is fine?

So that is confirmed rt?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] shut_down:
Well somebody tell that they have lag. You can inprove that with custom kernel, and that needs root to install (or you flash it with Odin, but that way you increase binary counter). Yes there is english language, and more other.

Simlock after JB update

Bought the Galaxy S Advance as it can be upgraded to JB.

As soon as I had it I started flashing using this guide, I never had a SIM card in it and never went through the GB installation procedure. Don't even know what Firmware was installed before I started flashing :(

First time I put the SIM card in I get the message "SIM network unlock PIN" so my phone is locked.

Went for a Factory reset and a Clear Cache but the problem remains.

So I flashed using Odin again, it reboots twice, shut it down again, factory reset, wipe cache...

No luck :'(

Any pointers to fix this?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] ManiacShri:
did u buy thru a carrier? or unlocked?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] rlarry:
mine is carrier locked. it is safe to flash JB?

may I remove carrier after flashing JB?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] ManiacShri:
oooo you shouldnt have flashed then! they change the bootloader n stuff so they lock the device if you flash anything at all! also now the only option u have is to go to the carrier and pay them a load of crap... :( its risky!

p.s check what firmware the phone came with(carrier specific) and try flashing that...may solve the problem
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] rlarry:
NO. I didnt flashed yet. Mine is carier locked and it is rooted.

I just ask if is safe to flash this JB or just whait for my carier JB release.

I don't want to risk bricking my device.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] shut_down:
1. No, you can unroot by installing original firmware again with Odin. (This is for JB, because some rooting method for GB is increasing Binary counter, and that void your warranty).

2. Yes, but do not install custom kernel if you want to OTA update it. Or remember to get back to stock one if you want to OTA update phone.

What are the benifits of rooting nd is there any mobile app to root
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] sam_code4u:
The update went smoothly, everything is a piece of cake. There is no lag, not that I have noticed yet. The gallery seems to be a bit less responsive when viewing the pictures, but it might be only me or Jelly Bean comes with other presets than GB.

It does slides images when I swap my fingers faster, but it is slow when I only barely touch the screen like I used to do in GB. Will take time getting used to it.

Also the stock browser has zooming issues. Pinch to zoom won't work as it should be.

Some says they have battery drainage problem, but I have installed Thunderzap and I didn't noticed it. May be I will after few days.

I have flashed my device with the newer update (XXPLZ) instead of this one (XXPLY).

After Update I have 625MB Ram and Internal Memory is same as before 11.31GB

You'll need to backup files before updating - like contacts and sms. Other internal files remains intact and they needn't be backed up. However, for security you can do the backup for them too (who knows what is going to happen) ?

The whole update process took only 5 minutes and the device works without much of the lags with some additional features of jelly bean. I love the new keyboard and its features. However, the UI is bit not of my type. GB interface was much better at some instances. JB is good but sharp edges and round cornered windows just not my type.

The device eats up more memory than before, but you have additional RAM to compensate the problem.

Shut_down helped my at every stage in the whole process and even helped me to install custom ROM. My SGS is now better than ever. There are some bugs, but I think Sammy will fix them on the further update, and final update rolling out to our countries.

I ave written an visual tutorial for those who are new at flashing their device. This might prove to be helpful assets for the newbie :)
