[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Sladaski:
I have the straight talk version of the Samsung Galaxy S II. I am aware the i777 and the straight talk S595G are the same exact phone. But my question is...installing a ROM. I do not have a microSD card to use, and I wanted to know if I could use the internal storage on my phone to install a ROM. From a quick research session, I learned you have to wipe the data and cache, but I am unsure if that will wipe the internal storage...where the ROM.zip would be.

Simple terms, can I install custom ROM using the internal storage instead of an SD card.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
The hardware is the same, but the memory partitioning is different and there is a different way to flash custom firmware. Please see this thread.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Sladaski:
I read it. That didn't answer my question...will wiping all the things that need to be wiped get rid of everything on the internal storage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Would appreciate it if you'd be more courteous to those offering free help.

Doesn't matter where you put the rom as long as you know where to find it in recovery when you're flashing it. A factory reset from recovery won't delete anything on your internal card, nor will formatting /system. If you do it from within the rom itself, like in the settings menu, then you WILL lose everything from your internal card.

That's why it's best to only do these things in recovery.

I wasn't trying to be mean...just redirecting me to a thread that doesn't answer my question isn't very helpful. I know it's a different process. But I thank you for answering my question.

Use Search... It sure looks like you are on old Baseband & have flashed one of the new ROM's which work with the New Baseband.

Just search & flash the "old BB fix" & you'll get your network back.

Can you modify your script to use adb shell and then su to root to make it work on more rooted phones?

Hi everyone! I am new around here , as a user, but i visit this forum every day.

Just compliments for you guys!

Your tutorials helped me many times, your ROMs got my phone alive and lot of other things.

But now, it happened to appear a problem that seems to be impossible to fix.

As the title sais, the problem is that the soft keys aren't working anymore.

I flashed Gingerbread and ICS official firmwares with Smart FlashTool but they didn't solved the problem.

I ran a keytest in CWM and they work fine.

in the log appears that each key command equals to 0 while the touchscreen touches equals to some strange numbers like 63738291.

the commands also work on gingerbread when the phone is plugged in,and even then the whole touchscreen goes crazy.

So, i don't think is a hardware problem.

I found sort of a solution of editing a database in an internal folder /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db , but i don't know how to edit it.

Can someone help me?

Does anywone have the fix of this?

Right know i am using SlimBean with Navigation bar, but is frustrating that i can't use the main keys.

Is about Menu, Home, Back and Search keys.

Excuse me for my bad english, i from RO.

Also, if i am posting this in the wrong section.

Thank you!

Some help

I just bought an unlocked Glide and I struggled with the steps myself, but I went about things differently and I hope this can help you.

FIRST, use the Samsung KiES to update the software from GingerBread 2.3.6 to the ICS 4.0.4 stock

Then, after I did that, I visited this blog where the writer did a FABULOUS job explaining how to install the CWM recovery and flashing the rooted version of the ICS ROM (AT&T version):

Let me know if you need further help and I'd be willing to guide you along. :)

Update as of 03-Nov-2013

I don't know what I did, but after getting into the "Android system recovery screen the phone came back up. At least phone is working.

seekdatruth101:

Many thanks for the suggestion - I'll try it are report back.

Currently, Kies is running and almost connecting. Kies shows "SGH-I927" in the "Connected devices" but it the "Connecting..." screen just keeps spinning it's wheels. Last night Kies was able to connect and was showing Contacts, Music, etc. Today, zilch. I tried restarting Kies, powering down the phone and removing battery. When I connect phone to computer, Windows 7 installs the device driver s/w. Sometimes this works, sometimes it works and says it's "Samsung xxxd #2", then "... #3". Sometimes the device driver s/w fails to install and returns error. Assuming I can figure out the crappy Samsung USB driver ....

What are phone USB settings for:

Current Phone/OS info
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
You HAVE to update to Ice Cream Sandwich in order to install the correct bootloaders for Odin.

You can do this via kies.

Also, when using Odin, completely close kies, as it can sometimes interfere with the procedure. USB debugging allows many communication features between your phone and computer, mock locations allow certain apps to fake location data, and USB mass storage is used to connect your phone to your PC like a flash drive.

I would suggest installing the USB drivers as instructed, either through kies or by going into control panel - device manager - (whatever you're phone is listed as) choosing update driver and selecting the folder with the drivers in them.

Odin will flash yellow as you said to let you know there is a device attached.

As I said before, all of the guides are for captivate glides with ice cream sandwich, so you MUST update.

Hope that helps a bit.

is anyone able to extract the necessary files to get Messenger working again? be much appreciated.

i'm quite surprised Vodafone havn't completed screwed the devices and put god awful themes/icons on them. the only things they do are add their own "inbox/sms/calender" icons to the Today screen which point to the same inbox etc as the default ones...

But i ask for a favour in return.

I have 02 xda exec in corporate mode. I have no connection settings for vodafone, I cant get mms working or nothing.

Id appreciate your settings.

I downloaded the latest rom from ftp and it doesnt put the connection settings into my exec, only puts in the mms settings under messaging/inbox, mms configuration

Ive tried allsorts of configurations to no avail. I just cant believe that the latest rom doesnt set up the connections automatically.

ok i will give you the settings that work for me now with vodafone

Go to start, settings, connections under isp add a new modem connection.

Select cellular line (gprs, 3G)

Call it vodafone internet

user name web

passwordd web

that should give you a 3g internet connection, let me know how you get on

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Sirius-C:
is it as simple as that? there are no dns servers or anything?

Is there no modem connection under "My work network"

also under messaging>menu>mms configuration, could you give me these settings please?

Please Please if you have the time will you write all the settings down and where they are.

IE my isp, my work network, mms configuration, together with any dns servers/gateways etc

It Would be greatly appreciated.

BTW does your hard reset set up the connections to vodafone? if it does could you share your extended rom?

if you click on the signal strength icon then settings then band.... whats your setup in here?

sorry for pestering you with all these questions but im desperate to set this up, been messing about with his for a couple of days now.

BTW i installed the vodafone rom last night. Sure enough there are no messenger icons but if you use a thirdpary file explorer and browse to "\windows" you will find instmsgr.exe (this is messenger)

and

pmsn.exe, pmsnlauncher.exe & pmserver.exe (these are pocket msn)

I guess you could create shortcuts to these using something like resco file explorer and put the shortcuts in your start menu.

If these files are not present let me know, I can also copy you the shortcuts if your having trouble

Access Point Name: internet

Username: user@vodafone.net

Password: user@vodafone.net

Under advanced, I have:

User server-assigned IP address under TCP/IP, and also under Servers.

All other entries are unchecked.

If you now go into Pocket Outlook, you need to check your MMS settings. There should be an item at the bottom of the menu called 'MMS Configuration...'. Select it, and check the following:

Under preferences, I have the following checked:

Retrieve Messages Immediately

Download on home network only

Save sent messages

Under servers, I have an entry called 'Contract MMS', which has the following settings:

Server Name: Contract MMS

Gateway: 212.183.137.12

Port Number: 8799

Server address: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms

Connect via: My Work Network

Sending size limitation: 100K

WAP Version: WAP 2.0

Using these settings, everything I've tried works just fine.
