I only have a few days experience with this, but in everything I've been reading, there's nothing really past MDK that works with the recovery images...think we're stuck with MK2 until the pros figure it out.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] equake:
Safestrap 3.7x works with JB 4.3 ROMs so you can Rom away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vt0r:
Have to agree with equake here.

You're already past MDK, so AOSP-based ROMs are no longer an option while the bootloader is locked, BUT there are several good ROMs available for booting from Safestrap.

Lots of them listed here (try Verizon GPE and HyperDrive first):

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Just a side note.. Hyperdrive 12 only works on Safestrap 3.71 which is either mj7 or mk2. And us 4.3 users really only have HD 12 and maybe a couple others to choose from currently. No GPE as that was on 4.2.

Again there are people working to bring more roms our way on 4.3 you can find them in the dev section and Eclipse is gonna be coming soon for us to I hear.

There's Omega, darthstalker, foxhound and Hyperdrive last I checked.

ImO Hyperdrive and Foxhound are the ones to really check out.

Not a huge difference option wise... Hyperdrive and foxhound seem to be tricked out the most. I'm a Hyperdrive man myself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
If you are already beyond MDK, the only reason not to upgrade is no method of root or getting back to stock.

Right now not an issue.

Re: [ROM][4.1.1][PORT] X-Bean **2.0** (fast, stable & superfunctional)

Been browsing for an update on AT&T Captivate SGH-I897 Froyo 2.2 and now on T-Moble

Unlocked, rooted with SOC and CWM recovery..

Read thru development on X-Bean **2.0**

Understood to get: x-bean 1.1Base.zip / gapps-jb20121011-signed.zip / BUT not sure which kernal!!

Early the thread states Devil 1.0.4vc but most recently suggests alternative of semaphore 2.0.3c.

Am I correct in thinking both work, just the semaphore is newer?

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
They both work. Just make sure you get the right version.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyannt:
Appreciate the reply BWolf56!

I will be sure to use either the kernals with the "c" suffix as suggested in the original thread!

NOW! Trying to decide on the best Backup App..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
TiBu is my personal fav.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyannt:
UPDATE... Again, thanks BWolf56!

AT&T Captivate on FROYO 2.2. OneClickRoot, CWM Recovery V2.5.1.2

Did ROM backup, TiBu backup, EFS, APN, Contacts etc

Installed/Flashed:

ROM X-Bean1.1 base.zip

gapps-jb-2012101-signed.zip

Semaphore_jb_2.0.3c.zip

landscape_fix.zip

Phone booted up fine initially, would always revert to landscape view, back button was now the home button.

Could not find any of my backups. "UI" kept crapping out; "Unfortunately UI is not responding" Think that's what it said!

Had to click OK and it was back until i touched anything and kept happening...

Did Advanced Restore -> CWM Recovery of: System, Data, Cache, ext/sd

Phone rebooted.... Stuck on AT&T logo screen, charging pinwheel shows but doesn't move.

Cannot get into recovery.. managed to get into "dowload mode"

tried i897UCJF6-final-OCD-REVO.zip loaded on computer, phone connected in download mode,

loaded PIT file only as the zip had no PAD file....... NO SUCCESS

If I proceeded in a NOOB fashion, it's because I am so I'll take my licks Lol

Any help would be appreciated!

Figured it best to just get back to stock 2.2, maybe even earlier since I wouldn't have the 3e recovery

problem not being able to install from OTHER sources. Then TRY again after brushing up!!!!!!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Did you flash a I9000 ROM? If so, you need the I9000 bootloaders.

Also to downgrade android version, you have to use Odin (i suggest kk4 without bootloaders if you already have the gb ones, which can be found in the stickies).

Make sure you follow the full instructions next time to avoid issues like that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyannt:
---------------------------------------------

Ahhh, fello Canadian i see!

You may be correct thinking i have I9000 "JB"? bootloaders!, in the original

thread : Aceofspades replied to a member question stating: "Port means that this

rom is originally made for i9000 and made it to work for captivate."

Should I assume I've flashed an I9000 Rom? and now have JB bootloader?

Thinking back, I did not wipe before going back and using recovery! Not sure that was the problem

but it was on reboot after restoring CWM/system. data. cache etc that the phone rebooted and ended up

in a continual cycling of the ATT logo screen!

Big question now is how do I do to remedy my situation!!

NOTE...I have made a JIG and can get into "download Mode" now

From this point on I'll document my every move in order to be able to provide

the exact procedure I went through... might be more helpful !!

I know I know... NOOB! Lol

PS, is an alternative to use Kies Mini and update to Gingerbread?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
First thing: don't use kies at all!

There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB. If the ROM is a port, you'll most likely have to flash the I9000 gb bootloaders but I'd suggest finding another ROM to start with (like CM). Playing with bootloaders is the only thing that will make your phone a paper weight if something goes wrong.

Also, bootloaders aren't included in roms for safety measures. That being said, you can run ICS and JB roms just fine with the GB bootloaders.

As for what comes next. Perhaps use Odin to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders, from there flash corn kernel (once again with Odin) and give CM a whirl following their full flashing instructions. (Which can be found both in their thread and website)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyannt:
Understood... NO KIES

Sorry but a little confused still...

Do I Odin flash KK4 w/o bootloaders first -> flash corn kernal with Odin -> then flash a CM ROM using their procedure?

Where in the sequence is "flash I9000 bootloaders?

* No luck finding Odin w/o bootloaders yet, outdated download sites. Will search through xda again.

Noted! "There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB." (I was originally ATT captivate on FROYO 2.2)

Noted! "bootloaders aren't included in roms for safety measures." "you can run ICS and JB roms just fine with the GB bootloaders."

As for what comes next. Perhaps use Odin to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders, from there flash corn kernel (once again with Odin) and give CM a whirl following their full flashing instructions. (Which can be found both in their thread and website)

I might be a little hazy on the order of your suggestions so thanks for the patience!

GREATLY APPRECIATING YOUR EFFORTS!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
For now, forget about the I9000 bootloaders.

Here's KK4: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3

During your flashing, did you ever flash the GB bootloaders? If not, get the version with bootloaders and make the the flashing isnt't interrupted.

And yeah, from there you got it right, corn kernel; and follow their full flashing instructions.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyannt:

* I haven't knowingly flashed GB bootloaders.

* I've been all over the link you provided... no working downloads.

Hmmm, I did try "Odin" a couple of times to get the GingerBread update...After doing that my phone now

boots to the AT&T logo, goes black for a sec and a screen like a bad tv signal comes up! Also, the phone

is now charging and showing the big battery icon! I seem to recall reading somewhere that if that happens

it may be wrong bootloaders? Can't remember exactly what it said but am I correct thinking it was one of

your own replies to another member?

Anyway, done for the night Grrrr

* Now able to get into recovery mode by 3-button, shows 3e recovery, have ability to install from sdcard,

wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition.

* I have an "update.zip" on there but can't remember what it's for so I didn't do it...

but still no UI coming up, just the AT&T logo which cycles ON/OFF

Am I still in the same boat... needing KK4 Odin flash, after doing that will i be able to copy

a KK4 ROM zip to my phone thru PC and flash from the phone?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
KK4 is a one click Odin.

From there, you'll have to use Odin 1.85 or 1.87 to flash Corn kernel to be able to flash your way up to CM.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tyannt:
Hey there!

* 4-2ndtwin chimed in and said he would post when he uploaded them.

Been looking in the meantime.

* I have both Odin versions, now understand that I can use Odin to flash any file I choose, such as the Corn kernal, not just files it may come with.

* I downloaded a "Stocki897uckk4-zImage.tar, unzipping shows "zImage" file but I

haven't touched it.

Just hanging in for a working link for the Odin KK4 One-Click I guess...

Question!!!

For clarification..Odin KK4 One-Click is just bootloaders, kernal and maybe modem, right? It's not going to give me a working ROM...OR, is it ALSO an alternative way to flash a ROM when I can't add a ROM zip to my phone thru my PC to flash?

Lol... I'll get a handle on this, more of a visual type :)

Hi i dont know if its just me but i was doing somethin with system app but for some reason i gets wrong and i dont have a nandroid backup yet so i decide to factory reset all goes ok but when i finishes setting up the account and language i got an error its says unfortunately setup wizard has stopped, but lucky i enter playstore and install apex and all its ok so the app wich let me do that was google search but after factory reset i didnt have it so i installed from play store and make it a system app with titanium, is this ok or not, i fell a bit slower the device jeje or nothing happens with this conversion of a user app to a system app? sorry for my english
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] experience7:
Well, actually a factory reset is nothing more than deleting the user's data. Files which are stored in the system partition stay untouched. So your modification is still present even after "factory resetting".

Best thing you can do to totally reset it: Download the latest (4.4.2) factory image for "hammerhead" (=Nexus 5 codename) from Google and flash it. It contains all partitions and resets them to it's original state :) There are tutorials out there on how to flash a factory image :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MU24R:
Oh but thats all i did just uninstalled google search and backup with TB but for some reason it doesnt let me to restore it so i have to do the factory reset! but now i installed as a system app is there a big problem with touching that app?=?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] experience7:
Okay, let me summarize what you did:

1) You messed around with system apps.

2) You don't have a Nandroid-Backup - so you choose to factory reset your phone <- Which actually doesn't revert your modifications since the "system" partition remains untouched.

3) You set up your phone again but the system wizard keeps crashing.

4) You installed Apex Launcher and it fixed this problem.

5) Google Search isn't available after the factory reset, so you download it from Play Store and make it a system app.

6) Now your system feels slower in general.

--> Is that correct?

If yes, what exactly do you want to have now? Reset your phone like it was on the first day? :)

And why did you touch system apps at all? What did you want to modify? :)

Greets,

The biggest changes are 1. A $25 fee for any repairs or trips to the store. You get two free trips a year. 2. A huge update to the terms and conditions.

Is this cancelation worthy with no etf?

Apologies for my ignorance but would this just obviate the etf? Anyone know how the device charges would be handled.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ArchangelRenzoku:
I'm so glad I just got my replacement. I cancelled after paying the deductible. It sucks that if your screen is cracked whatsoever, the warranty for any other possible repairs is void. My digitizer wasn't even affected and I went in for issues with Samsung Knox not showing up and stuff. And now hearing this just made me realize what a crappy deal it has been before and how it's about to get a whole lot worse. When dealing with Sprint, you're better off with Best Buy's protection program instead. If I get on someone's Framily plan, that's where I'll be doing my upgrades from now on once the new lineup of Triband phones is released.

Force GPU will do little in terms of real world performance on your phone. Changing the animation speeds to .5 will make the phone FEEL snappier, as it makes the windows pop in and out faster.

You have to hit the 'save' icon on the top right corner prior to reboot...it looks like a floppy disk. Did you do that first? Then after reboot, you still have to add them to the side bar by scrolling to the bottom of the side bar, touching the pixelated triangle & choosing edit to add the apps to the sidebar. The previous steps only make the 'available', the last step actually adds them to multiwindow. I hope that helps!

This is a great feature and maybe I am missing something but I wanted to ask my fellow 10.1 2014 owners a question....with the previous Note 10.1 you could split the windows and the functionality was a ton better. For instance, I could make the top half Kindle (with a textbook loaded on it) and the bottom half S-Note. When reading my text, if I found a passage to notate, I would circle it with my S-Pen and drag it down to S-Note where I could furhter notate the "quoted' text.

If I try this with a 10.1 2014, it no longer works - at least not that I can figure out. When you circle text it pops up but you can't do much with it. The only thing a 2014 seems to allow is dragging it onto a select set of apps that open up from the bottom tray. With the 2014, I can circle a passage, drag it to one of those apps (which then open with the selection showing) BUT if I try to do that a second time with the app that just opened, it won't work.

Has anyone else been frustrated by this 'removal' of functionality? Is there a fix?
