virgen mobile kernel???

i know i know its stupid to ask but its coming a kernel for virgen mobile intercept ?????? cus im sick of this cheaps usb tethers lol
[Intercept Android Development] 5318008:
Virgin Mobile confirms official 2.2 update around the end of March, maybe early April. There is no way at all I can pass up unlimited tethering for $25/month, which is why I just bought my wife and I two of these to replace our Rhodiums, on minutes-only plans with T-Mobile (cheapest off-contract GSM plans we could find) that are costing us more than VM will cost us. The only real downside is the low-resolution screen, oh well. I don't know how they can do business at such low prices, feels like we're getting away with something doesn't it? Pretty awesome though. They just came out with an LG Optimus, also. And the plans are so cheap! I feel like Scrooge McDuck taking a high-board dive into a big bin of gee-bees. #amirite

I've tried with several failed attemps to Root (my sons) Intercerpt from Sprint. Is it possible to root/ clockwork Froyo, At this time, Or I'm I doing something wrong?
[Intercept Android Development] ljbaumer:
I might root my friend's samsung intercept.... If I brick his phone then I will be soooo screwed. I do android development for the D2 and DX, and on both of those phones you can always sbf if you brick your phone and it saves it... is there any way to do that on the intercept?

I just have to make sure this rooting process will work perfectly and I could install custom roms or themes for him. Is it even worth rooting an intercept? Is there much you can do with it once you root it?

Please respond to me with a PM because I won't remember to check this thread ;)

Thanks a ton,

Is there a way to get swype on the intercept?
[Intercept Android Development] 5318008:
Swype works on Intercept now, technically still in beta. I have it on my VM 2.2 Intercept. Swyping can be buggy under 2.2 (might have to disable then enable.)

http://swypeinc.com/

Alternate Swype version for Intercpet, dunno how it works on 2.2.

http://www.samsunginterceptforum.com/samsung-intercept-how-to/swype-keyboard-now-available!/

Supposedly working permanent root method for VM 2.2. Might have to run multiple times or let sit an hour or two. I couldn't get it to work, but others did.

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/int...ot-for-froyo-intercept-for-windows-(updated)/

A couple different rooted kernels available for VM 2.2, based on official VM 2.2 kernel.

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/intercept-development-2-2/crapkernel-for-vm-undervolt-root-ext24/

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/intercept-development-2-2/vm-intercept-ultimate-kernel-package/30/

Rooted ROM for VM 2.2. Basically stock ROM with one of the above kernels included.

http://dewdu.de/vm-froyo/VirginMobile-Froyo-StockROM-Rooted.zip as linked to from http://forum.sdx-developers.com/int...obile-froyo-2-2-stock-system-and-kernel-dump/

All kernel and ROM links have instructions. Hope this info helps.

One Click Root And Unroot For Froyo Intercept For Windows (Updated)

:)

SDX-Developers Member kuroyoma has posted a very good link for - One Click Root And Unroot For Froyo Samsung Intercept from your Windows:

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/int...ot-for-froyo-intercept-for-windows-(updated)/

This uses ADB, rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin exploit and su binary, and Busybox App.

Please read the above thread completely to understand and get answers for any questions that you have.

Easy Instructions:

Download the zip file from above link to C:\ on your Windows PC

Unzip the file using Winzip or similar tool (Search on Google for Winzip downlaod)

It will extract in folder - InterceptFroyoRoot v0.2

Using Windows Explorer open C:\InterceptFroyoRoot v0.2 folder.

Do not click or double click on any of the .bat files yet.

Open all .sh files (one at a time in notepad ) and replace /dev/block/stl9 with /dev/block/stl5 and save .sh files. This is needed because to correct the mount path in Samsung Intercept is /dev/block/stl5 for /system.

To Root:

Turn on USB Debugging on your Samsung Intercept phone.

(Home -> Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging Check this option)

Connect your Samsung Intercept to USB port on your Windows PC.

From Windows Explorer, go to C:\InterceptFroyoRoot v0.2

double click on START_ROOT.bat

Wait and check the output on PC screen...

To Unroot:

Turn on USB Debugging on your Samsung Intercept phone.

(Home -> Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging Check this option)

Connect your Samsung Intercept to USB port on your Windows PC.

From Windows Explorer, go to C:\InterceptFroyoRoot v0.2

double click on START_UNROOT.bat

Wait and check the output on PC screen...

:)

[Intercept Android Development] lanwarrior:
There are so MANY post showing DIFFERENT WAYS of rooting the Samsung Intercept.

Can anyone confirm :

1). Which one works? OP version? sdk-developers.com version?

2). Does it work for Android 2.2?

3). Does it work regardless of the carrier? Currently the Intercept is sold under Virgin Mobile and Sprint.
[Intercept Android Development] 5318008:
I couldn't get one-click working. I used the SWUpgrade method here http://forum.sdx-developers.com/intercept-questions-2-2/can't-flash-recovery/msg173393/#msg173393 and then installed the CrapKernel v2, linked from my signature. Had to reinstall SuperUser from Market, phone didn't like SuperUser bundled in kernel, but after that I had full root, no problems. If you're on Windows 7, you'll need to check YouTube for a video on manually installing Samsung Moment drivers on Windows 7. Windows XP will run the Intercept's driver installer no probs.
[Intercept Android Development] EducateAndInnovate:
Sure working root options for Intercept

:D

Please read this:

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/intercept-questions-2-2/what-are-varioud-rooting-options/

Recently, I used this for rooting:

It is a little longer method but it certainly works.

MIne is Nexus one. It's just rooted.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611829 the newest Ra recovery for n1 is here.

There was a note:

Install

Pre-Requirements :

Root

Make sure that init.rc isn't calling any install-recovery.sh script, otherwise you'll boot back to stock recovery (exclamation mark with a little Android).

I tried on my n1 and I booted back to stock recovery......:(

How could I fix it?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
after you flash the recovery, without rebooting, just run these two commands:

rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philanini:
Thank you friend.

I used the fastboot-windows.exe in cmd to flashed the recovery ,and I don't know where to run your cammands.:confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
Alright, open a command prompt into adb shell (or use terminal emulator from your phone) and run the following. Note that you don't need to run the first command if you're doing it from the terminal emulator on the phone.

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh

rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p

reboot recovery

After you run these commands, you should flash the recovery again and you should have no problem!

Good luck!

Thank you my friend. I tried what you've told me, unfortunately,and it said not found there.

However, I tried MiuiRomInstaller.apk ,it flashed a clorkworkmod recovery. Then I flashed RA recovery back, luckily I succeeded!

I could use that change my rom now.:cool:

Thank you Gravufo.

So what are the difference between his two guides?

Does the TRUE way really offer anything more for the beginner rooter/android user? Such as speed/ su permissions/ and custom ability?

Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blancoisgod:
it just gives you more control over your device.

its not worth it unless you will be changing the splash screen at boot and doing other mods (like flashing stuff through fastboot)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jentzschman2000:
As I am new to android and this site, what is the splash screen?

I doubt I will be doing much more then the ROM flash when I get the MT4G. But I like to learn.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dclaw_fantum:
The splash screen is the screen that says "T-Mobile my Touch 4G" on it. The animated boot screen is the next part, where the "My" logo is animated.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slhpss:
One gets you root with an engineering bootloader and security off on the bootloader

The other one (super ultimate guide) also gets you security off on the radio, which basically sim unlocks your phone.

It seems all these GB roms are saying the same thing now... and obviously all coming from the same core. How about telling us what is so different about yours?
[EVO 4G Android Development] awesomecomb:
Does this allow Evos with 003/004 hardware revisions to use the camera?
[EVO 4G Android Development] demo4o1:
I definitely agree. Also it sounds all too easy. Too good to be true? Ima gonna give it a shot nd test it. Will let u guys know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] KommyDroid:
Rear camera? Yes, I have 003 and it's working fine here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] KommyDroid:
Well this (v.1) is completely stock, besides the obvious additions.

but will be improving the build all the time, as this is my main project
[EVO 4G Android Development] awesomecomb:
Just flashed the rom, and camera still force closes. I don't know which revision I have, but not very many roms will allow the camera to work. Either way, your rom is quick, but I'll restore my previous to salvage only because my stuff is set up. This is a revisit though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] KommyDroid:
Okay cool, I'll look in to that for you though.

To check your version go to Settings > About Phone > Hardware info (I believe)

Flashing the latest cm7 stock kernel got my wifi to work. :)

I don't know if this is a Gingerbread thing or if it's specific to the rom but I feel like the browser waits for the full page to load before actually rendering the new page. I don't remember it doing this with other roms.

boot animation kicks ass but ended early so I had a blank screen for a bit
[EVO 4G Android Development] KommyDroid:
Just click on the problems tab of titanium and it will install it for you ;)

Yeah, I stuck with the white icons.

Was thinking of switching to green, yeah?
