That is quite odd, if you don't see "Installing blue market..." and "Blue market installed!" in the logs then the script didn't see the file called "Blue_Market" on your SD card. I just installed the ROM and it installed both the theme and market fine... Are you sure you the file's named exactly like "Blue_Market" in seearms/extra on your SD card?

No worries.

Swype would remain in tact if you followed the way I mentioned. Actually, I didn't realize nitr8 uploaded a Swype which is installable through CWM - this would be much easier than messing with files: http://insanity.rollus.net/addons/keyboards/Swype-West.zip

I convert data and system to ext4.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I just double checked. The file is called Blue_Market. Weird eh?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] yiannisthegreek:
seeARMS,

Is there a no ipe version of this ROM? Do you have to choose it from the included files?

Please advise... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
It's no wipe if you delete the wipe file from the extras folder! I just wiped because I had issues the first time I installed it. That was me though, you should be fine.

Trust me. Read his updated installation instructions on the first page. Don't be stupid like I was and eff it up because I didn't notice he completely changed the installation. hahaha :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Btw! Thanks for all the help seeARMS, and thanks again for the rom work! Its running smooth now!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dawgplg:
Hey seeArms, thanks for your work on this ROM, i have been watching it pretty much since you started, but seeing as my phone has been in repair just about the entire life of this ROM, i have had to wait until now to install.

Everything seemed to go great for the install, Installed CWM, then installed the ROM. Phone came up fine, aside from Blue Market not installing, I also noticed that the MIUI Music Player would not install. I tried just running the APK after the ROM install, but it gives an error. Any ideas?

Also when I tried to install the Gingermix my phone boots but immediately goes into Force Close mode, for what seems to be everything. I have to reinstall the ROM in order to get it going again. Any idea's? To install the Theme I am just loading into CWM and running the zip, same way I installed the ROM.

Other than that this thing flies, Great work.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jordiharrison:
V.4 didnt install the blue theme or blue market, the options shown after holding the power button dissapeared. Only "power off" shows up. My 3g or gps doesnt work (jk4 modem probably) aaand my home button doesnt work while the screen is on. Sooo... probably gonna do a wipe install and factory reset and see :/

___

So, I really did not want to wipe (teehee), but I did. Stupid me for relying on a nandroid backup, just causes problems with rom updates, durr.

GenX theme and blue market still dont install.

Besides that, everything seems to be workin now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I had exactly the same issue's, including the lack of 3G. I have jl2 modem, so it's not that. A factory reset cured everything, including the power button missing menu options and 3G.

The blue theme and market do not install though. I have reinstalled the rom several times and they never do. I had to install the theme manually.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJustin:
Does installing the blue theme also add the extended power menu and 4 lockscreens?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] QYV:
Is there any way we can get the full/international version of the android email app? The crippled one that samsung provides always gives me problems.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MaverickHHH:
Whoa. That particle boot animation is very cool. My favourite one up to this point! Thanks for introducing it to me!

I updated using the non-wipe method from v0.3 to v0.4 with lagfix disabled. Everything OK so far!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
To those having issues: when new methods get used, there are bound to be a few bugs which need to be ironed out. This is essentially the first ROM which uses shell scripting to customize the ROM (other than my other JS3 ROM), so I didn't expect it to be entirely bug-free.

The majority of the bugs should be fixed in the next release(s), which I hope to get done in this week. Just bear with me, and report bugs as you find them. :)

I'm not sure why the apps and theme aren't installing; I'll look into it. You're using the Gingermix theme found on the first page, right? You aren't able to use the standard Gingermix theme in the Themes section of the forums (sorry if you are, I have to ask simple questions first :p )

Got it, thanks for the reports, I'll look into getting the bugs fixed.

It's quite odd that the market / theme aren't installing, they installed fine for me many times. Regardless, I'll get it fixed. :)

Unfortunately not yet; haven't integrated them into the base ROM yet. It should be included within the next few releases.

Do you mean the AOSP email client? It wouldn't be difficult to include it at all; I wasn't aware the Samsung one had problems because I only use GMail.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] QYV:
Ya, I believe that would be it. The one samsung distributes has way fewer settings than stock and I always have problems with the activesync push. If you could include that it would be great!

Also, thanks very much for the JL2 ROM, I love it!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bdking2:
SeeARMS you mention that it would be easy to do the AOSP email client, which I has assumed up to this point was the app 'Email' and samsung added ' samsung email'.

Either way I was wondering if it would be easy to get the AOSP calendar app? I like the look and feel of it better. Let me know, loving the ROM.

Dan
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MaverickHHH:
FYI. My home button doesn't seem to function as it should after the no-wipe upgrade. I have it set to go to default screen in LauncherPro as well as it usually exits of an app when pressed. Neither works. I'll play around some more but I'll probably try the wipe method.

Thanks again for your work.

EDIT: I did redo the ROM with the wipe version and everything works good. However, like the few other ppl, I see no blue market, or GenX theme installed even though I left it in for the script.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I just swapped to the newest Super Optimized Kernel so I could overclock again and wow, its so much faster than Speedmod...even without overclocking.

I have to mention the particle boot screen too

Its frigging cool!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJustin:
yeah, i'm a fan of super optimized kernal + voltage control for overclocking. I have to remove the vsf with the script because it doesn't really suit my usage, but the phone flies :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
The only issue I have is that the screen brightness can't make up its mind. I have it on Max brightness and it still goes bright and dim over and over again. Its annoying.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Dawgplg:
The Gingermix I tried I got from the first page.. Got most of the other things straight, cept the Blue Market and theme, but I can live without them.

I do notice the flicker on the screen from time to time like Gib.. Doesnt really bother me, but if there is a quick fix out there im all ears.

Question about kernels, is it bad to go between kernels? ie I started on SOK, did the lag fix, did tweaks, ran it for a few hours, removed lagfix, flashed speedmod, did the lag fix, did no tweaks... And now I am reading positives about SOK, so was thinking of going back.. Is that bad?

Thanks again dude, this rom is sick.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
No issues. I swap kernels constantly. I have gone back to speedmod since my last post since the vsf dimming was annoying the hell out of me in SOK. If I can figure out how to disable that, I would stick with SOK. Its fast.

Speedmod Kernel seems to have better color and sharpness though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Yep, shouldn't be too hard to include that either. I'll look into it.

Got it, thanks for the info.

I've tried both kernels and I've always preferred SOK. When the VSF feature was I added I switched to SpeedMod for the same reason you did, but I recently flashed it again, disabled VSF, and it's running great now.

To disable it, just download the S_Scripts file in the attachments in the SOK page, and copy it to /etc/init.d on your phone. Was quite easy; I used ADB.

If you're havin' trouble doing that, I could create a flashable update script (or even include it future revisions of the ROM).

Also, to address your other question, nope, you shouldn't run into any problems repeatedly flashing different kernels.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] JJustin:
It's in the first post of the super optimized kernal thread by laststufo. Basically, you have to use the program root explorer to find the folder /etc/init.d

If it isn't there, you have to create the folder. Download the scripts from the first page of the thread and one of them should be VSF disable. Copy that into your /etc/init.d folder and restart :)

Oh, and seeARM's, I was just curious if the AOSP lockscreen is still unlockable by pressing the menu button? I find that i accidentally hit it a lot of times. I'm thinking of trying your JL2 rom again as i'm getting 2.5% battery drain per hour on JS3.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Thanks for the info guys. I will try adding that script. Other than the dimming from vsf, I love sok.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
It worked! Thanks for the info guys! :)

No more freaky dimming!

Now the only thing I like better about speedmod is the voodoo color and sharpness. The color temp is cooler, and I like that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Yeah, it is still unlockable with menu. Haven't gotten around to changing it yet; I'll do it soon.

Super Optimized Kernel also contains the Voodoo sharpness and color fix. SpeedMod probably has a few other color-changing modifications.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Aaaaah ok. Yea. That makes sense. I'm glad it's working now. Its so much faster than speedmod.

Speedmod is much easier on my battery though. SOK drinks it.

I am dropping 10% per hour on standby.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] AER0:
Sweet, an Update :D

Thanks for the continuous work and effort seeARMS.

BTW, is this a "Wipe" version?

Do I need to format the internal SD

It would be a pain to reinstall and backup all my content

(Half the stuff on my phone wasn't even installed or used by me, friends and family :rolleyes: )
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MaverickHHH:
For any fellow seeARMS ROM users who are interested, I did a search of the Particle Android boot animation that seeARMS introduced to us. It led me to this original thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905538

There are lots of cool boot animations to choose from. I would have not known if not for this ROM. Thanks!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MaverickHHH:
You gotta invest in the app Titanium Backup. It is totally worth it. The only thing you may need to restore are your desktop widgets. However, all other system settings and apps are restored back to its original form with settings. It's awesome.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I second that. Titanium Backup is awesome. It backs up and restores everything. Its a one click wonder!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] canad1an:
APN list missing?

Anyone else have to manually enter the APN settings for Rogers? Wipe/no wipe made no difference. Multiple install attempts, didn't make any difference, still had to enter Rogers APN settings. Didn't have to do it with other versions, or the JS3 version.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
OK I had to kill sok. My battery is down to 50% after 4hrs of sitting in my pocket. That's rediculous. Such a fast kernel, but battery life is pathetic.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] klau1:
It's possible that it is a configuration or hardware issue.

I'm on SOK 4.7.6 and the battery goes down only 6% in 8 hours of standby.

At the risk of insulting your intelligence:

WiFi disabled?

Background GPS Nav programs?

Background 3G data access?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] canad1an:
I had the same FC experience with Gingermix from the first page. Reinstalling the ROM cleared the FC issue. As well, no blue market installed. I checked the log file, and blue market wasn't listed.

Otherwise the ROM runs well. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zacharias.maladroit:
nice ROM ! :)

is there a place where I could download the UGJL2 modem for cwm ?

many thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
I was thinking that. Its far too high NOT to be something else sucking battery. I reinstalled sok again and now battery life is fine. Weird.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
This ROM will only wipe your data if you leave the "wipe" file in the /seearms/extra folder. If you delete this file, it won't wipe your data.

However, I really recommend you make a backup anyways, in case something goes wrong.

I'll get one uploaded tomorrow.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Is there a way to make a cwm install of the blue market also, since it isn't installing for any of us? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Yep, not a problem.

Bah, I dunno why it isn't installing. The script says exactly: if a file called "Blue_Market" is found in seearms/extra, then rename it to Vending.apk and move it to /system/app (to replace the market). It worked for me every time I installed it, but it hasn't worked for anyone. Maybe I uploaded it with the wrong folder structure?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Its good. Blue_Market is in the seeARMS/extra folder. Not sure why it isn't installing.

What if I just renamed it myself and then installed the apk? Would that break it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rotaha:
CWR do not recognize my ext-sdcard

when im tring to flash the rom it keep give me an error: no fiels found

can i move the rom file to the enternal sdcard?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
No. Flashing must be done from the internal card.

Are you unzipping the rom first? I made that mistake. You have to unzip it first and then delete the kernel and modem you don't want installed from the seeARMS folder.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
FYI: For fans of Hardcore Speedmod, there is a new Kernel out! k13b! I am running it now, it's faaaaaaaaaaaast.

I am sticking with Speedmod. SOK keeps randomly heating up my phone and sucking back battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] QYV:
Just to followup on my request for the AOSP email app. I have done some digging and been able to install the AOSP email app manually using ADB. Problem is, that is still not the version I was looking for! The one I am looking for is the one that is included with Doc's and Darky's roms; its looks exactly like the android email app that comes with the SGS, but has many more config setting (like being able to select different sync methods for peak/off peak hours). I tried extracting it from one of Doc's roms and installing it via ADB, but all I get is FC's from that. Ideas anyone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
For those of you who want the Blue Market to work, follow these instructions:

Rename the "Blue_Market" file in the seeARMS/extra folder to "Vending.apk"

Using root explorer, navigate to the system/app folder. Back up the existing Vending.apk file in that folder to another folder (copy/paste).

Copy the newly renamed Vending.apk file from the seeARMS/extra folder to the system/app folder using root explorer.

*EDIT* Make sure to reboot your phone after and you are good to go! You have a fully functional blue market with search, and the Market app icon is even blue now!

That's it! It's easy and it works! I just did it myself!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trdcameleon:
How do you use TB ? Juste backing up Apps and setting and after that restoring them??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Yep! That's it! If you have the PAY version, it's one click batch backup and restore of all apps and data.

Just click the backup/restore tab at the top after it scans all your apps. Then hit the menu button and then "batch". Pick backup all apps and data. Good to go!

If you have only the free version, you have to approve each app install one at a time when you restore. It's not as convenient.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trdcameleon:
It work for me too.. very easy, take 45 seconds and I have a Blue Market!

Edit : I'm not able to do any search. The search button isn't working.. :S

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Oh....I just noticed that too. Let me try a reboot before I go any further...

EDIT: Yep! Reboot and it's fine. Search works. Even the Market App Icon turns blue!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Might be a modded app, or just an updated one included with 2.2.1. I'll look into getting it installed in this ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betaboy00:
How do I flash the new SpeedMod (k13b) kernel?

I'm currently running v0.3 seeArms ROM that has SOK.

Do I just download the Speedmod (k13b) kernel for CWM flashing and flash it...?

or should I get upgrade to v0.4 first and select SpeedMode(k13a) Kernel...

then flash the kernel using CWM to k13b?

Thanks in advance for your answer and help.

Another problem that I have with v0.3 is..whenever I reboot my phone, it takes a very long time to come up...a few mins! and my phone vibrate a few times while the boot up.

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
You can flash the Kernel from CWM any time. It's separate from the rom. So just flash K13B from CWM and you are good!

It is recommended to disable any lag fix or tweak before flashing to prevent errors, but I have flashed my Kernel back and forth between Speedmod and SOK several times lately without disabling anything and had no issues.

Boot time is a few mins for me also, both on v.03 and v.04

I don't think that's an issue.

As for the vibrating, I think that means something has crashed....but I could be wrong.

Try Speedmod Kernel. You may like it more, and it may solve your vibrating issue when booting. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] canad1an:
I read here that the phone doesn't lock the screen while charging via USB with K13B. Do you notice the same?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
Let me check. Nope. It doesn't. It's not an issue for me though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betaboy00:
Thanks, I will try Speedmod

good to know that the long reboot is a "feature", i.e. I'm not the only person experiencing it.

It just feels like the phone is about to crash..since it exhibit similar behaviour as the internal sd card crashing - stuck at S logo, screen goes blank, LED button lights up. But after a few mins, then everything comes up ..and the widget comes up slowly too.

Only difference for me is my phone vibrates a few times.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] betaboy00:
yeah I don't see any APN listing in v0.3
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] border43:
So, I am trying to install V4. I flashed super optimized kernel so that I could get CWM. I never had it before. Everything went fine as far as I know. Clockwork mod is installed.

Now it says to put the files for this OS onto my external SD card. But the external SD card appears to have been wiped? And it is no longer accessible from my computer. It shows up, but its greyed out, and I can not access any files on it.

The internal SD card is fine... Can this be done by flashing from the internal SD card instead of the external??

And why would this have happened???

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] border43:
Actually, the external SD card was not formatted. I removed it and put it into my laptop, and it works fine. Everything is still on there.

The phone just does not seem to be able to detect that it is there. I can mount and unmount it, but the files are not showing up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
You want to put the rom on your INTERNAL memory to flash, not external. Always flash from your internal memory. :)

v.04 installs differently as there are choices of kernels and modems before install.

Head back to the first post and read the updated installation instructions if you haven't. It comes packed. You have to unzip it, then delete some files from the seearms folder (the kernel you DON'T want installed and the modem you DON'T want, as well as wipe or no wipe) before installing the rom.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] border43:
Yeah I know all of the installation instructions. The thing is, it says to install from external memory haha.

To install this ROM:

1. Download and extract the file you downloaded above to the root of your external SD card (both the "seearms" folder and the .ZIP ROM file).

If you would like to customize your install, continue doing step 2. If you would like a stock install with all the applications + SpeedMod kernel + JL2 modem + Generation X theme, skip to step 3 (however I'd recommend customizing your install. )

2a. Browse to the "seearms/kernel" folder on your SD card and delete whichever kernel you do not want to install.

2b. Do the same with the "seearms/modem" folder: delete whichever one you don't want to install (I'd recommend installing the JL2 modem unless you've specifically had problems with it).

2c. Do the same with the "seearms/applications" folder: delete whichever applications you do not use. You're allowed to delete all of them to create a slim install, or delete none to create a stock install.

2d. Browse to the "seearms/extra" folder on your SD card, and delete whichever extras you do not wish to install (You're able to choose the Generation X theme, blue Android Market, custom boot animations, etc). Most importantly, if you would like the ROM to wipe your data, leave "wipe" untouched. If you don't want it to format your data, delete "wipe".

2e. So, before going further, you should have the following folder structure on your SD card:

Oh well. Ill move it to my internal then :)

There is still something funny going on with my external memory, but ill try flashing from the internal and see what happens. Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] GibMcFragger:
hahaha Oh. I think that's a typo. I could have sworn that roms were only ever supposed to be installed from the INTERNAL card. If i'm wrong, then feel free to smack me down. hehe

I've never tried reading the external memory from CWM, so I don't know if it not showing up is normal or not. Try installing the rom and see if it is recognized after.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
You can do either method.. I'd recommend upgrading to v0.4 and then flashing k14b after though.

If your phone is vibrating, then something in the system is crashing (most likely an application). While upgrading, I'd choose to wipe all the data, which will fix whichever application is crashing.

You using v0.3 or v0.4?

It was a typo, my apologies. :)

Did you flash the latest SOK? An older revision (and the one included with v0.3 I believe) prevents you from mounting the external SD to a computer due to a minor bug. Flashing a newer kernel (any that is included with v0.4) will fix this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] BiggJ:
So, how do I install the Super Optimized Kernel. All I can find for Odin is a Zip with a zImage file inside it. No TARs as far as I can tell.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] seeARMS:
Which file are you downloading?

Download the file named: "SO_zImage_opt_ext_root_V4_7_7.zip ". It contains another file called "SO_zImage_opt_ext_root_V4_7_7.tar" inside it. This is the file you're looking for.
