My understanding is that our leaked versions are not currently compatible with T-mobiles mms servers and therefor gives us issues. However someone else has said that he was told to put the resolution on the camera pictures to 3.2 instead of 5MP and that solved the problems sending the pictures at least.

Get the Gingerbread keyboard, I love it more than the Android Stock Keyboard :D
[Vibrant Android Development] AndroidOS.FTW:
So, I'd really like to take the plunge and do the whole root/ROM flash thing and I've spent literally weeks (in total hours) reading and re-reading threads on ODIN, Clockwork Mod Recovery, ROMs, Modems, Kernals and to be honest, the more I read, the more confused I become. One thing I'm certain of is I want to know I have a way to return completely to my current, absolutely "stock" U.S. T-Mobile Vibrant (SGH-T959) at Fireware version 2.1-update1 and Baseband version T959UVJI6 but, search as I may, I can't find an ODIN tar or CWM zip that clearly states that's what it is.

I can find plenty of links to the JFD tar but not a one for JI6. So, what is it I'm not putting together here? Should I be thinking of JFD as the baseline without updates and if recovery is necessary, once the JFD tar is loaded my device is back up, it will simply auto (or there's a way to do it manually) request a push of an available T-Mobile server for and OTA to bring it back up to JI6? Or, once at the baseline of JFD, is that when a fresh root would need to be done so I can then flash the nandroid backup (created with CWM) to bring the device the rest of the way to JI6 and then I can unroot and be back to "stock" in preperation for an announced, official OTA?

I apologize if these questions are overly noobish but, I really have spent weeks (in total hours. Hell, one evening I spent over 5 hours just reading one thread!) reading and re-reading, trying to get a firm grasp of the concept and I'm big enough to admit, I feel I'm coming up short. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Jerzeeloon:
Ughhh what?
[Vibrant Android Development] Zylograth:
yeah that is basically the problem, perhaps someone can pull the MMS_Config.xml out of the apk and edit it so that it reports the correct user agent.

Go to; res/xml

* extract mms_config.xml

* edit mms_config.xml with a hex editor.

* put mms_config.xml back into res/xml

Gingerbread KB is ok but I like to have haptic feedback and have not been able to get it enabled with the recently leaked GBKB
[Vibrant Android Development] wolfsvein:
You can use clockwork to make a complete backup of your current rom and restore if you need to. I have done this with no problems. But once you start switching roms you wont stop.
[Vibrant Android Development] johnny13oi:
Hey guys, has anyone tested whether Wi-fi calling works in this rom? Does it come with Wi-Fi calling preinstalled?
[Vibrant Android Development] heygrl:
It's stock so it has WiFi calling

These STOCK 2.2 JLx roms are as good as they get. The BEST (including over something custom) to date.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
agree'd. I'll continue trying to find the leaks as soon as they are hosted at samsung for everyone.

Glad the latest JL series that i've been finding have been keepers so far. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] murse:
I can say for sure that wifi calling works great in JL4. I would hope it's just as good in JL5.
[Vibrant Android Development] J3ST3RM4A3:
Just flashed JL5 and no issues to report. Lovin' FROYO. Thanks again OP!

I've had trouble getting OCLF to work on JL4 and JL5, are the lag fixes even worth it anymore aside from a big Quadrant score?

If I odin this over the top of jl4, where does that leave me? Will all my apps be intact? What about home screen icons and widgets?

A question on 2e/3e recovery. I've just rooted my JI6 Vibrant and I intend to only load the mobile AP through CWM for now, perhaps a different modem as well but, i'd very much like to try out full blown froyo at some point. I would rather avoid ODIN if possible but everything I see for the JL5 ROM is either ODIN or 3e. My device states 2e in the stock recovery console so does that mean I'm out of luck on flashing JL5 unless I go the ODIN route?
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
flash my ODEX or DEODEX versions through CWM. It includes JL5 ROM, JL5 Kernel, JL5 Modem, Root, and modded 3e recovery that works like 2e. and mobileAP is built in as well
[Vibrant Android Development] Zylograth:
I tried that on this ROM and ended up with no MMS app at all
[Vibrant Android Development] rk0:
Delete the odex from /system/app/Mms.odex
[Vibrant Android Development] AndroidOS.FTW:
So the 3e recovery is a part of the Kernel I take it

Thank you very much for the info. Now I know for certain the flash actually contains all the goodies. Let me ask you another question if I may. For now, I'd like to see if just flashing the JL5 modem proves to be beneficial at all to the stock JI6. I'm a bit of a neat freak when it comes to my file systems/storage and I like to organize everything into folders. When flashing (Modems, Kernels, entire ROMs, etc.), does the file to be flashed

have

to be at the root of the local device storage (/sdcard) or can it be inside a folder on the local storage?

It's certainly not a big deal to simply move a copy out to the root, flash and then cleanup but, if I can avoid a step...

One big reason I ask is because it seems like every file used to flash anything is named "update.zip". As I think many would agree, two "update.zip" files in the same location would be one to many for any file system (overwrite much?). :P

Wow...i'm really impressed with this rom! No lag fix needed at all. 14.5 linpack, 1075 quadrant...stock. It's running super smooth even with twiz! Good job Sammy!
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
with CWM, you can have your flashable zips located in any dir. I like to keep mine separated, so I have folders called ROMS, Modems, Kernels. You don't need to rename anything to update.zip. You should be good to go.
[Vibrant Android Development] Zylograth:
I'll give that a try :)

EDIT: Well I deleted the mms.odex and flashed the blurry mms fix and I am back to having no messaging app on my device. So this did not help LOL
[Vibrant Android Development] AndroidOS.FTW:
A simple paragraph that cleared up so many misconceptions!

Thank you! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
the reason why is when you use the ODIN version, it leave's your /system with about 30k of free space. the mms.apk is 1.5mb,

I would flash my ODEX or DEODEX'ed version (probably deodex would be best in this situation) and then flash the MMS fix. that should help you out.

Edit: Actually, you dont even have 30k after ODINing. seeing as I had to remove about 5 or 6 APK/ODEX files from the ODEX version to allow the flash to take place due to busybox and the root files.

[Vibrant Android Development] Vegastouch:
I saw the thread but i am a little confused. Which one do i need? ODEX or DEODEX? I have no idea what the difference is. I know this may be a dumb question but ive only flashed a ROM using ROM Manager with CWM. All those different links are a bit confusing.

I can always use the ODIN file as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] trickshot829:
Sorry for posting such a novice question, but how do I get this updated on my phone?

I understand I need to download Odin and the file provided in the first post of this thread (the .tar file) but don't I need a .PIT file as well? As far as I understand, I turn my phone off, hold the buttons to make it go into download mode, turn Odin on, hook up, select .tar file for PDA and then another for .PIT. But I just want to make sure everything is clear before I do this for the first time.

Some background on my phone: it's a "virgin" phone. It's never been modded. Also, it's a T-Mobile phone unlocked to work on the AT&T network. By placing this update on it, nothing should be ill effected in regards to connectivity to the AT&T network should it?

Sorry for such beginner questions, but I really appreciate the help (no idea what 'modems' and 'kernels' mean...:confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] donalgodon:
As I understand it so far, I just need this file and ODIN to install. Is that correct?

Do I need to be rooted to use it?

I too apologize for the noobie-ness, but I gotta start asking what I'm not sure about after reading. :o
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
If you just want the basic STOCK rom, then flash the ODEX version. If you would like to add theme's, mods, and other tweaks and giggles, flash the DEODEX version

Thanks,

Give the market some time. Mine updated about 12-14 hours after my initial flash. If you are ansy, grab SGS Tools from the market, and you can update it through there amongst other things.

Since you are unlocked using on ATT, you've got some work to do before flashing froyo.

1st, ROOT!

2nd, Install Rom Manager and Clockwork Mod Recovery

Then you will want to back up your /efs dir, you will need every file in there later when you flash a froyo rom

Now that you are rooted, you dont need to ODIN, I already took care of that for you by making flashable versions through ClockWork Mod.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=881692

4th, once you have froyo flashed, you will want to A. check to see if you phone still works on ATT, if it doesn't you will need to restore the backup you have of your /efs dir then you should be ok. The Froyo leaks remove the unlock codes from the phone, so thats why it's best to back up the efs dir

See above :)

Is there a risk of an unlocked Vibrant being locked again by a ROM flash? I'm going to be using mine unlocked in Latin America.
[Vibrant Android Development] trickshot829:
Thanks for the response! I was under the assumption this could be done without having to root? The only thing I ever plan on doing with my phone is updating- so is rooting necessary for that?
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
If you do happen to become locked again, follow the guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=822008&page=4

If you are just going to ODIN, no need to root. if you want to flash through Clockwork, you will need to root.

My current setup is as follows:

CWM 2.5.1.2 (2e I think?)

Baseband T959UVJL1

Kernal 2.6.32.9

Build FROYO.UVJK6

Can I use CWM to flash this?

I have seriously gotten so lost with all the different things you guys talk about on here that I'm not completely sure which pertains to me. And what can be flashed with what or along side of what build and so forth. Many thanks to anyone that can understand my question and a bigger thanks to anyone that manages to answer me :D
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
yeah, you should be fine. you may need to do the modded 3e recovery fix after though.
[Vibrant Android Development] trickshot829:
Ok, so I attached a screenshot of what I am currently looking at. The file shown in the PDA is the .tar file from the beginning of this thread. Now is the next and only step to hook up phone in download mode and press 'start' on Odin? And this will give me an updated version? I assume this is relatively safe running low risk? :rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] DmdFreak:
Is there any reason not to do the e 3e recovery fix first?

And do you happen to have al ink to that available? I seem to be on 2e ATM

Can I flash the link in the first OP post without Odin over JK6? Just CWM?

Also, Thanks for the quick response.
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
restart your phone in Download, then load ODIN

the kernel has 3e built into it. so you'll want to do it after.

extract the attached, rename mod_jk6_recovery to recovery and adb push to /system/bin

[Vibrant Android Development] Yellow C6:
Yes. You can Odin flash Supercurio's JL5 Voodoo kernel. It has root and recovery built in. Plus you get the awesome performance of Voodoo to boot.
[Vibrant Android Development] murse:
I've had this problem using Fusion and not just with the Vibrant. I also couldn't use Fusion to load software on my Blackberry 8900. It has something to do with how the USB drivers in Fusion communicate with the device. Perhaps there's some lower-level function that doesn't happen because it's running through the virtual machine. It will work with Boot Camp, though. In fact, it's one of the few reasons I keep a copy of WinXP in a boot camp partition on my Mac.
[Vibrant Android Development] DmdFreak:
I'm not totally sure on the ADB thing either, but I didn't want to be more of a pain.

I'm rooted and I have andexplorer. Can I just do a copy and replace of the recovery file from inside there? I can see the file that needs to be replaced.

JL5 running great

Im running Jl5 and the only issue is the flash player makes pages slow but only on pages that haver a lot of ads. I didn't run any fix or patch. Used odin and bam! The only complaint is that the stock android keyboard is not included. Pretty good too me, great battery too.

Is there a way to disable flash in the browser?

Question about the ROM flash itself: To flash this, on simply needs 1) Odin, 2) the ROM file and 3) a rooted Vibrant, correct?

Is it selected via PDA?

Sorry to be such a noob.
[Vibrant Android Development] anthonys2r:
What I do is go to the web browsers

Menu -> Settings -> Plug-Ins -> On-Demand

This, by default, disables the flash ads and makes them "On-Demand" by allowing you to enable them just by tapping the disabled flash ad icon in its place.
[Vibrant Android Development] gagb1967:
The Mobile AP is included in all the leaks so far.

If that is the only reason you have to root the phone, you don't need to.

You can odin the updates, no problem and your config stays intact

[Vibrant Android Development] donalgodon:
So, if I want to Odin this, I select the ROM file via PDA button while in download mode and I'm good, correct?
[Vibrant Android Development] gagb1967:
Weird, Download mode works independently of the rom, that's why this phone is virtually unbrickable.

Sometimes ODIN just don't work. Close it, open it again with phone unpluged

Turn off the phone.

press volum up plus down together. pressing the keys, plug USB again. Odin should come back up/

Be sure you have the right phone drivers installed if keeps on not working
[Vibrant Android Development] gagb1967:
Correct., be sure not to check Re-partition. Sometimes coming from specific roms (eugenes, TW for example) would be ideal to di full odin to shipping stock first, including pit file and checking re-partition, and after that flashing new rom
[Vibrant Android Development] krylon360:
You are thinking the Fusion rom.

VMWARE has a version called VM FUSION. It doesn't see the phone in Download mode, it uses a different voltage in DL mode and it doesn't pick it up.

Dear forum members,

Update on 23.12.2010:

The following is been achieved with extensive work and is considered as big step forward.

A new way for ROMs signature gives 4 times faster flashing time than the original.

All official and custom ROMs will be re uploaded including the missing device picture:

In case your device is flashed with the official Htc European ROM:

RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U

that can also be downloaded, in case you need it, from this link:

http://rapidshare.com/files/4392192...1_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U_by_ansar.zip

then you can upgrade the Radio and bootloader while you retain the firmware version 1.16.401.01

by flashing 4 times faster the Htc European ROM:

RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U

that can be downloaded from this link:

http://rapidshare.com/files/4391717..._5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_Signed_by_ansar.zip

You can go back to the initial Radio and bootloader

by flashing 4 times faster the Htc European ROM:

RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U

that can be downloaded from this link:

http://rapidshare.com/files/4390789..._5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U_Signed_by_ansar.zip

End of update

****************

Update on 22.12.2010

Also the boot loader (spl) has been updated in the new rom.

It remains only the imgfs, in order for a total flash without the WP7 signer.

End of update

****************

Update on 22.12.2010:

This is a custom ROM not signed with the new and yet not completely hacked MS WP7 signer.

If this is true for all operators and spl's then the game just started.

End of update

I successfully created and flashed a WP7 ROM nbh image for the HD 7 device with the following features.

In the nbh image while spl, xip and imgfs.bin is retained from the original ROM version:

RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09

the radio is from another operator, the O2 DE, from ROM version:

RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.61.207.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10

Now there is a way to flash only the radio from other operators.

It will be uploaded next day.

[HD7 Windows Phone 7 Development] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

You need an unlocking code (8 digit decimal number) based on your device IMEI and your operator (T-Mobile).

Search for a reputable unlocking web service (you pay), or tell your operator to provide you with the unlocking code (usually free)

because you need to use a different sim when you travel at another country.
