If you do upgrade the rom to one of the several cooked ones available on here, go with Pug's ROM which contains the 1.04 radio, the O2 stuff stripped out and the camera 'update' not included - apparently, without the camera update, the picture quality is loads better. I can't be bothered to reflash my 2i all over again and reinstall all my bits and pieces, just to try this out though, but other users report better quality without the O2 'upgrade'.

The O2 stuff is also useless, so get the O2StuffStripped at the very least. The 1.04 radio made a big difference for me (marginal signal before, I had to stand on one leg and put my arm out the window whilst wearing a tinfoil hat to get signal before in my house, but now so long as I'm on the first floor I can get signal! which is a tenfold improvement from before).
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] flawless:
I did miss the O2 battery plugin for the Today screen, but I managed to find a seperate install for it on these forums anyway!

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=26995
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
That much is true - initially I did too; however, I found that the O2 Plus battery meter is much better (and shows more information in the same pixel space), so I'm happy with that for now.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] gquipster:
Whats the difference between the 2 and where would I get the Plus one from? Any chance you could post some screenshots showing the difference?

Would really appreciate it!!!

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
O2 Plus battery meter comes part of the O2 Plus application which you can install onto your Alpine (you have to get the patched version which will install on any device as opposed to the device-locked original installer which O2 Asia release for its customers) - just look on the forums for it.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] mrtdgn:
How do you rate the pictures taken by a standart Alpine and by an Alpine using the modified ROM of pug (from 1 to 10, where 10 is the best and say it is a picture taken by a high quality digital camera working at 1.3 Mega pixel)?

If you can reply for indoor and outdoor seperately it will be more helpful.

Cheers.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
The first custom rom for the Alpine released onto the forum, and the one I'm using (Modified_XDA_IIi_Upgrade_v1.11.162_Radio_1.04.rar) includes the 'update' which actually makes the camera quality worse. However, once it's on you can't just uninstall it, I found out I'd have to basically hard reset and install the latest ROM which doesn't have the stupid update included.

The ROM you want to use is Alpine_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed.rar - I can't provide you with a quality comparison because I've not used that one (yet), but from what I hear from people who have used it, the quality is much better - much closer to how you'd expect it to be from an (albeit mobile phone, but still) 1.3mpixel camera.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] mrtdgn:
Thank you for the detailed answer.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] civic98:
With all respect, can Pug verify this? Previously it was explained that the only difference between the 2 ROM was one still has O2 stuff in it, the other stripped.

Shouldnt be any difference in camera.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
The camera_fixed aspect refers to the removal of a software patch applied to one of the DLLs on the phone used for the camera software - the changes the 'update' makes to the DLL in question actually makes the quality of subsequent images taken MUCH worse. Not installing this patch restores the camera quality to its original (and better) state.

I haven't tried it out myself, this ROM came out just after I'd hard reset and then totally restored my XDA from scratch, and I couldn't be bothered to start over a third time, but from people who have used the camera_fixed ROM, they report that the camera quality is in fact improved.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] xda2006:
Alpine_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed.rar by Pug did improve the camera quality, but this only setback was it would downgrade the recording sound quality.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] 2ippy:
and it didn't strip the O2 stuff imo, still got the o2 logo at start and the GUI thing.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
The O2 splash screen can be removed by means of dropping a correctly-formatted image into the root directory of your phone and running a CAB file on your device (again, obtained from this forum) - and bingo, new splash screen.

Because the original image is in the ROM, and nowhere else, I also stripped out the original O2 splash screen from a ROM and posted it on this forum, in case anyone ever wants to sell their device and wipe it clean of all their installed stuff, without having to flash the ROM).

Interesting that you say the O2 GUI stuff is still there... Did you try the corporate install method?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] JP2005:
Pug's ROM

I've been reading about pug's ROMs and have found (in the forum) some missing features after installing said ROMs...

These are the band selsctor, and screen rotation icon...

has anybody found out how to restore these?

I haven't tried the ROMs yet because I want to keep these said features after changing the ROM...

regarding the screen rotation icon, is the screenrotate.dll still part of the startup service? Memmaid can show the startup service to check whether it is still there or not. Also, maybe the rotate icon is not showing due to the registry settings?

The main problem is that you didn't install a recovery. Because the only issue i know is to push file to sd card via ADB. But you will need the recovery then to find the file pushed to install it then as a new rom.

Now I have small problem.

This is what I have:

4.1.2 stock jb v20h rooted (euro version) p760 variant of LG l9

I accidentally deleted system app called live wallpaper picker and I don't have its backup. Now I can't setup live wallpapers(live wallpapers crash at when launched obviously) , otherwise system work fine.

I wonder is it possible for someone to upload that apk so I can just regularly install it again without need to run factory reset? It's kind of tedious to do factory reset just for live wallpaper picker because system works really well atm:)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silentvisitor:
Hello friends,

We all love Custom ROMs. Proof of brilliance of Developers on XDA. Many people don't know the correct way of flashing ROM and face various errors during or after ROM flashing. Even most advanced users can face such errors and need to troubleshoot their device.

Since I have been reading a whole lot of such issues here I decided to open a thread to troubleshoot such issues with help of everybody here. So lets get started.......;)

Before we start

I am trying to help you with best I can (with good experience) and shall not be responsible for any damage you do to your device.

Before flashing anything to your device read, read and read a lot about your device in your device forum especially about

How to recover device from Soft-brick

Bootloaders

Recoveries

Next download most recommended Stock firmware for your device to Computer.

Most important thing here is Bootloader (although most of the times you don't need to touch it at all). This thing can Brick your device . Be very very very cautious about flashing it. Don't if it is not absolutely necessary.

How to flash a Custom ROM

- If you are a new comer (Welcome)

1. Download and install Samsung USB drivers to your PC. Reboot. Connect your phone and check your phone is recognized.

2. Download ODIN 3.09

3. Download PhilZ Recovery 5.15 (Most recommended Recovery right now)

4. Open ODIN. Put Recovery tar.md5 file in PDA tab. Only "F.Reset" will be TICKED and nothing else.

5. Switch Off phone.

6. Put Phone into download Mode by pressing and holding "Vol down + Center (Home) key + Power On"

7. Now connect phone to PC. It will install drivers for your phone. In ODIN it will show connected as Yellow Box with some number.

8. Hit START.

9. After few seconds it will show PASS.

10. Remove your device.

11. Remove battery from phone. Re-insert battery.

12. Now press and hold "Vol Up + Centre (Home) key + Power On". You will enter in Recovery. Congrats :good:

13. Now Reboot System. If it asks if you want to disable Recovery Flash, hit Yes (otherwise on next boot Stock Recovery will come back)

- if you already have Custom Recovery

1. Place the ROM that you want to flash on SDCard (External is recommended)

2. Boot into Recovery

3. a) If you have PhilZ recovery

- Go to Wipe Data/Factory reset

- Clean to install new ROM. Thats it.

b) If you are on TWRP or CWM

- Format all these : /system /data /cache /preload /dalvik-cache

4. Flash the ROM

5. Don't reboot. Clear cache and dalvik cache and then reboot. (not necessary but recommended)

If you need to flash some MOD or OTA update after ROM flashing then

1. Flash the ROM after data wipe

2. Don't reboot to ROM

3. Reboot back to Recovery

4. Flash MOD or Updates

5. Clear Cache and Dalvik cache

6. Reboot System (ROM)

Enjoy the Brilliance of Awesome Developers at XDA :good:
