I have rooted the phone and did side loading thingy and non market apps.

I installed clockwork mod for easy Back Ups.

Thats pretty much it.

I dont really want to go back to zero and having to install all my stuff back if that is what you mean. :-)

So, can I then do this without having to do the Odin thingy? :D

I swear I will catch up with Android over the weekend guys lol

I love how Multiupload isn't working today. apparently that's the only upload site people use around here.

[Captivate Android Development] hiway123:
Very nice reply. Extremely helpful to me, thanks. But a few questions here:

"""

Downloaded earlier sre package that also had kernals

Odin the JH3

Odin the SRE v JH3

"""

1. why do you need to get earlier SRE package? why present SRE v1.2.1a is not enough?

2. Odin the SER v JH3, could you please elaborate more? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Jim_C:
Um, The first line of my post says which one I downloaded.
[Captivate Android Development] Jim_C:
I don't remember ever seeing the battery indicator mentioned (doesn't mean it wasn't, I just don't recall seeing it.) Anyway, I may end up just starting from the beginning. Oh, well...I know how to do it now, so it's no big deal.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
What I did was flash to jf6, then loaded jh3. Then put SRE on there, and created a custom rom that is ONLY jh3 and SRE. In hind sight I should have just rooted it. oh well.

Now, if I have any issues I can always go back to a jh3 with only SRE installed.

1. You don't need to get an earlier SRE. the current one works. There are 5 different versions depending on what you want.

2. SRE is different from JH3. JH3 is the rom that has been released by samfirmwares.com SRE is the superrooter that was created by DesignGears.

You install JH3 using odin, and once that is done you put the update.zip associated with the version of SRE you want on your internal SD card, then when you boot into recovery (either use "adb reboot recovery" or turn the phone off, hold volumeup and volume down and then hit the power button.) You will see a screen and you scroll down to re-install packages and it installs that update.zip.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
Which one did you download? Also, and I know this is kind of dumb, but make sure that you copied it to the base folder of your SD card. I know that when I drag, sometimes it wants to go into a folder.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
See post 691 from this thread. The guy walked me thru it and it worked. HOWEVER the file he says to d/l in step 4 is not there anymore; it's been updated..... I will try to post.... if i get it right, unzip and use the odin inside.

When you open odin and click psc, it is going to look in the folder you started odin from..... USE THAT IN STEP 4, NOT THE 1ST TIME!!! 1st time after you open odin and click psc, point to your unzipped uhjc3 folder. Choose the .tar in there. Connect in d/l mode. When Com lights up, click START in odin gui. when it reboots your phone, close odin

2nd time you odin it will try to use the file you just used. Again, change where it's pointing, this time to the folder you started odin from (that you will hopefully d/l right here from me) and choose THAT .tar file. Again, connect phone in d/l mode then click START in odin.

I dont know why to do it 2X like that, but I'm a noob and I took that guys advice and it works every time, so I keep using it and passing it on.

You dont need the earlier package if i can attach. will try now....

can't get it to accept my upload..... trying something
[Captivate Android Development] hiway123:
Thanks a lot for explanation. Just want to confirm two things again:

1. If I am under out-of-box setting:

PDA: I897UCJF6

PHONE: I897UCJF6

CSC: I897ATTJF6

is this two-step work? flash JH3 -> update with SRE1.2.1a?

2. Does JH3 have the problem that the phone will not recognize sim card from ATT? Important, as I'm a US user..

Thanks a lot!
[Captivate Android Development] hiway123:
Got it, now, I know why you have that procedure. Very useful, indeed. After I figure out my rest two questions in another post, I will give it a try tomorrow. It is too late at my site, sleepy may cause "bad" move...

Thank you again for the help.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
No, I have JH3 on my phone currently, and I use AT&T.

You don't have to use jh3. I just choose to. You can get it to work on jf6.
[Captivate Android Development] hiway123:
Thanks for the information. I was thinking to enable cifs module in the kernel. But haven't got success under JF6, that's why I will try JH3. Also, I am not sure this purely "update.zip" from SRE will allow to insmod cifs module. Just want to try.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
I'm not sure either. I use SRE because of it removing the bloatware, OC, and a quick root. This makes my phone almost a complete package. Now if it could only install the programs I want every time I re-flash my phone.

Off to bed. Good luck!
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
You DO need the earlier sre package (v1.1) because it has both the version of Odin you want to be using and the jh3 .tar that may be the same as the one from the 1st step when you unzip it.(I think it's a different version tar because this 2nd odin goes MUCH faster.

I do it this way anyway and I've NEVER had it not work yet (knock wood). I cant figure out how to upload the earlier package.... keeps saying invalid url after i try to attach it from a file on my pc

4 big steps i think of it as:

Odin 1st time. Close Odin.

Odin 2nd time. Close Odin (will go much faster this time)

Rename d/l file from OP SREv1.2.1a.zip to update.zip and put it on the root of your sdcard

Reboot into recovery mode and reinstall packages.

And yes, this all works on ATT US

Np... hope it works.

Just d/l and unzip the attached file. Use that as the step 4 version from my 1st post to you.

Also, before you do anything else make your life ez by getting QUICKBOOT from the market.... makes booting into recovery mode ez.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
You don't need odin anymore. I put this on my phone EVERY time without using odin. I've re-flashed 3 times since the newest update. 1.2.1a doesn't have odin in it.

EDIT: If you read the OP, you no longer need odin because the kernel is flashed on first boot.
[Captivate Android Development] hiway123:
Thanks a lot for these detailed explanation, appreciated. I will give a try tomorrow.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I was referring to when you have something not working right. Like I think this all started when he said he flashed sre and still had market restrictions. All the advice from the "knowledgeable" people says in such a case, don't just reflash but start from stock. I just modify that advice by starting from JH3 odin. And like iI said it has NEVER gone wrong for me and many people seem to have probs when they "flash over"
[Captivate Android Development] furious6226:
ok so im having trouble...the ATT logo pops up then the Galaxys pops up then after that a black screen.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
where are you in the process?

At one point it DOES seems like you are frozen. Touch the black screen and see if your buttons light up..... if they do, it's working on it's thing and just wait.... if not or you already stopped it, redo it from the beginning.
[Captivate Android Development] anilkuj:
Hi Design ,

just flashed the Vibrant Hybrid ROM , one thing i really miss from SRE is

the ad blocking within Apps , how can get this done for any ROM ?
[Captivate Android Development] mindfrost82:
Does this have a problem sending larger messages over EDGE on At&t?

There's a known bug when you try to send larger MMS messages (usually over 80kb) over EDGE but they work fine over 3G on the stock ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
That's a JF6 problem, JH3 fixes that (In my experience at least)

** The edge MMS thing that is
[Captivate Android Development] hiway123:
anyone got success on cifs enabled with SRE?

Could you please share your cifs.ko and mention your SRE ver.? Thanks a lot!
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
flash stock and then apply SRE

Not supporting other galaxy s model firmwares on the captivate with SRE

JH6 issues, seems to be fixed in JH2/JH3
[Captivate Android Development] E_man5112:
No you didn't you said this:

There are two sets of the Circle Battery Indicator mod, one for people who have used the Evo Black bar mod, and one for people you haven't. Make sure you got the one from the proper set.

SIDELOADING issues

Excellent ROM - 2200+ Quadrant and 10 or so on the LINPACK score - and very zippy - but has anyone noticed that SIDELOADING is not allowed?? If someone out there does have sideloading with this ROM, then I am curious how you activated it as it should have been automatically enabled - and, I do not want to hear about the WONDER MACHINE :D:eek::cool:...lol...thanks...
[Captivate Android Development] maydaysos:
All I have done to my captivate is root. To flash this rom I have to unroot? In other words complete stock. No clockwork recovery no root.?

Just wanted to clarify
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
I just flashed the rom and side loading was automatic. Didn't have to enable anything.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
should be able to flash over, otherwise flash stock if you have issues.

Yup :)
[Captivate Android Development] brandonb81:
Just curious... after updating with this I am seeing t-mobile as my access point.

Everything works fine. 3G is giving me solid 3G speeds. Incoming and outgoing messages and calls work with no problem, so it's not necessarily an issue, I am just curious as to why and if anyone else experienced this after updating this?

It's odd.
[Captivate Android Development] uiskibum:
i tried to search through/skim this topic to see if this has been talked about so if it has my apologies.

When using the "best version" with JH2 or JH3 enterprise wifi (peap/802.x) fails to connect with any thing, it gets an ip but won't "go anywhere". I ran into this when using the shipped stock fw (JF6).

Any chance of pushing out an SRE "best version" - the mobile AP? I'm wagering this is causing my issues.
[Captivate Android Development] KaLiBLeeK:
My bum arse finally got around to donating, since I've been running SRE since I got my phone 2 weeks ago.

I had contemplated trying one of the I9000 firmwares, flashing the beta Voodoo lagfix, and all that nonsense...but I'm still not THAT comfortable hacking this mofo. Haha. And this works like a champ.

Thanks again DG for the work you've done. I think I'm standing pat with my phone for a while until Voodoo for the Captivate or a legit Froyo ROM hits.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
strange, post a screenshot of the settings of that APN.. curious

Pretty sure that is a known bug from jf6, and is also in JH2/3, mobileAP doesnt change anything, it just adds missing files.
[Captivate Android Development] uiskibum:
also strange...on a fresh flash of JH2/3 it appears to work fine (set up my connection, did some browsing etc.) but once I put SRE on it stops working. I'll try it one more time to make sure I'm not crazy.

[UPDATE]

Yeah wifi (802.1x) works with a fresh flash of JH3...
[Captivate Android Development] brandonb81:
I did. I went to settings>wireless and network>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names and it says

T-MOBILE US 310 260

I posted a screenshot attached to my last post. I'll re-attach it here.

Additionally, Data Roaming is not checked, Network Operators, when I go into it, it's all greyed out and just says "default setup". But everything works great. It works great. It runs so much better then it has since I got it now.

EDIT: Also, I now know why Speedtest.net keeps making me use Kansas servers. Think this has to do with anything? Check out the other attachment.
[Captivate Android Development] jaredc74:
The marketaccess app included in sre is changing that value to get around the at&t market restrictions. All is good.
[Captivate Android Development] brandonb81:
That make so much sense I feel absolutely retarded for bringing it up.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
I just wanted to post and say: I've never installed SRE till now, because I enjoy tweaking everything out myself... but damn man, I just did, and absolutely amazing job you've done with the whole thing.

Just wanted to throw in my official gold star for what that's worth :D
[Captivate Android Development] brandonb81:
This thing is amazing.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I wholeheartedly agree!!

Now a question that maybe doesn't belong here, but Zilch and Design were 2 of the people who might be able to address it.....

Why can't we get the last thing, the rotation, fixed so we can use the I9000? I really liked the setup of JM7 with the J8 modem so i had the right bands for voice and data on my us att phone, but then i had to make the other changes to get the buttons working right and STILL had the rotate prob =( So I switched back to JH3, SREv1.2.1a, Tayu lagfix 2.3.3

Bored..... wanna flash something.....
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
The orientation issue is an actual kernel problem, foreign kernels just dont play nice with our accelerometer =(

I believe there's a way to recalibrate it- but I'm leery of messing with that personally
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
On one of these threads someone said they got it partially working in regular operation, but then it would only steer the car left, not right in asphalt.... cant remember which thread.... prob 1 of the i9000 threads.... i'll look
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Yeah that was anilkuj, and I'm pretty sure it was in the JM7 thread
[Captivate Android Development] beazie0885:
are there any known conflicts with SRE and any apps? i just flashed odin3 back to stock jh3, then from a fresh flash, i flashed SRE. then i went into the market to get titanium, batch restored all apps+data and now my phone keeps freezing up on me. sometimes to the point where i have to do a battery pull. it just happened again from a screen rotation on my home screen in launcer pro. also note that earlier this was happening after i just flashed SRE over jh3 running unleash the beast. so im guessing it has something to do with some app i have installed or something. maybe launcher pro+? any help would be appreciated. i really dont want to go back to unleash the beast unless i have to. but if the phone keeps freezinng to have to.
[Captivate Android Development] uiskibum:
I tried the non-OC version and fresh download of the "best" version, still no joy.

sigh, i love sre, its been an easy way to root, and streamline the phone. but for some reason it makes just enough changes to cause JH3 to stop liking my corp. wifi. guess i get to play the 802.11n vs SRE game.

I'll keep trying as updates roll out!

[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
sideloading

Has anyone notice that you cannot sideload with the ROM - same isue with SAMSET - do we still have to apply the fix for sideloading. I know with the i9000 ROMs this was never an issue - love the speed and lack of lag - will try juice defender for battery consumption as this new ROM in my phone defender definitely eats the battery.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
I'm using Launcher Pro Plus and do not have any freezing issues..
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Sideloading works perfect on mine...maybe something you restored or did broke it...

Thanks for great package DG however I'm experiencing random search popups where the search window will pop up for no reason even tho I did not press the search key...
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
It's a new feature to SRE, it's so helpful it pops up search for you!

Seriously though, I haven't had this happen but I'll be on the look out for it
[Captivate Android Development] Clienterror:
I literally LOLed.
[Captivate Android Development] pantyryder69:
Lol I notice it starts happening once I connect my bluetooth headset to it and use basically any app that requires the internet and will continue to do so but with less frequency even after I disconnect my bluetooth headset the only way to solve it is to reboot..

I've tried killing each app to try to see if its a specific app problem but so far it doesn't seem like its an app issue
[Captivate Android Development] dizzid07:
When I unlock my phone, it freezes and get a message:

"Activity TwLauncher (in process TwLauncher) is not responding."

Has anyone else experienced this? SRE + Lagfix
[Captivate Android Development] Jaycdenton:
I was getting this when I SetCPU to "Interactive" profile. I'm pretty sure this is due to the lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] pantyryder69:
Found the solution to my own problem it was an app called power strip
[Captivate Android Development] dizzid07:
Thanks - I removed the lagfix and the phone hasn't frozen so far. Is there a known method for using the lagfix with SRE on JF6?

After removing the lagfix, my quadrant score dropped from over 2000 to 856...:(
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
I am using Tayutama ext 4 with no problems on a JF6. I did reboot the phone 3X as a precaution though before using the phone. 2 days and I am having no known bugs. I haven't had many FC after fixing permissions with ROM manager then I lost the custom font reset it rebooted and it's been fine.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765820

this lag fix works well with SRE.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I use the same setup (as you can see in my signature), except I'm running JH3 instead of JF6. Almost no fc's. I love this setup until any of them upgrade....

Flashed JH3. Then SRE. Then Lagfix 4. Then clockwork/nandroid backup, which i have restored to with NO probs a few times after playing with the I9000 fw.
[Captivate Android Development] beazie0885:
can someone please tell me why after using SRE my phone keeps randomly freezing up to the point i have to battery pull and reboot? this is getting old fast, i am running jh3 with SRE and fightspit battery mod with evo black bar. no lag fix. it just keeps randomly freezing up. can someone please answer me? i use this phone as my alarm clock and i have to get up and work in the morning, so im worried it will freeze up and my alarm wont go off!!!
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I am an admitted noob, but the general theory after reading ALOT here for the last few weeks is:

when in doubt, start over with a fresh odin.
[Captivate Android Development] beazie0885:
Yea this is my third try. I think it has something to do with me restoring something with titanium after a fresh odin. The first attempt I made at this I just flashed SRE over UTB and that was the first time my phone froze up. I figured it was because of UTB, BUT NO, not the case. Because I restored to stock jh3 twice since and then ran SRE. And still freezing on me. It doesn't seem to freeze in an app, as much as while I'm on my home screen. It also seems to require me using the phone at the time... scrolling or something then frozen. It's b.s is what it is. Why am I the only one having this issue? Just my luck
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
What are you restoring with Titanium Backup? If you are restoring system data then it could be causing your issues. Only restore apps...
[Captivate Android Development] beazie0885:
That might be it. I just batch restore everything, how would I go about just restoring apps+ their data without restoring system data and also being able to do it in batch manner at the same time? I just want to be able to do all this stuff in a timely manner without having to spend the time to re- set up my phone how I want it. Oh and thanks for your quick replies. I really appreciate it!

Edit: I just looked in titanium and the batch option I use is; restore all apps with data, and thats it. Does that mean system data too?
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
No that's what I am using also...What else are you installing? It's got to be something...maybe we can narrow it down if you list everything that you are doing and the sequence you are doing it in...
[Captivate Android Development] Maximum Bob Lutz:
Hey how do we go about changing the font?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
You do NOT need Titanium if you are returning to a previous setup. You want Rom Manager/Clockwork Recovery. Think of it as system restore in windows. If you use it to make a backup you can restore EXACTLY to that config.

Titanium is good, in my experience, for when you change to a NEW firmware or something else that requires reinstallations. When you batch backup, choose BACKUP USER APPS + DATA, but you have to pick CAREFULLY what else to backup. The stuff in red and green are system file-type stuff, and you ONLY want to restore SOME of it (accounts, etc). Be VERY careful what system files you choose to backup and restore.
[Captivate Android Development] han.azuki:
weren't some ppl able to get mobileap working when starting with jm5 and stock captivate kernel? what did they do to make it work?
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
i THINK that there are fonts included with SRE. You go into display, and scroll down to the font option.

If not, you can find the Vibrant fonts floating around the forums (they had 3 extra fonts installed stock) and install them on your phone.
