[Epic 4G General] n80k:
so i finally decided to make the jump and give my epic some froyo love. i spent the majority of my weekend figuring out the best way to do this and wanted to share what i learned especially since this forum gave me invaluable information, scripts, and files that i pieced together to get my phone upgraded to my liking.

my phone was running a bone stock DI18 with the exception of removing a few sprint bloatware apps. what i wanted to do is install froyo DK28 while retaining my call log, text messages, 200+ apps, etc. the best way to do this is to use the DK28 zip file found here and applying it at boot. i tried flashing with odin at first but backing up and importing my old files would have been too much work.

a lot of people had problems with the update tripping up just like this--including me. so here is the workaround i came up with.

first i installed clockworkmod recovery 2.5.1.0 according to this guide. next i cracked open the DK28 zip and found the script that runs the update. it is found in META-INF > com > google > android > updater-script. i found the code with all of the asserts in it and removed the code that checked for the bloatware that most people uninstall. i also removed code that checked for the boot screen animation because that tripped my update up as well.

from there i zipped the package back up, loaded it to my sd card, and booted into clockworkmod recovery. then i went to "Install zip from sdcard", made sure that signature verification was disabled, and then chose the modified DK28 zip from the sdcard. and that's it! once it was done applying the changes i had a fresh froyo upgrade with all my personal information intact.

after that i converted the filesystem to ext4 and flashed a new rom--system only. but what you do after installing the update is up to you of course.

i'll include the "updater-script" file that i modified in case you don't want to go thru the code line by line yourself. the whole package is too large to upload with it included so you will still have to unzip this attachment, download the DK28 update, unzip the update, and replace the file by yourself but this might make it a little easier. i hope this helps someone!
[Epic 4G General] djcslice:
this didnt work for me, nor did installing the original update.zip.
[Epic 4G General] n80k:
what didn't work? was there an error message?
[Epic 4G General] djcslice:
when trying to apply the update.zip with clockworkmod recovery mode, it runs it, doesnt finish and returns to the menu. When I try it with the stock recovery mode, it errors out saying signature verification failed.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Disable signature verification in clockwork?

Also you should post this is development too! I'm sure they'll make a ot of use of this
[Epic 4G General] n80k:
do you have a bone stock version of eclair DI18? mine was with the lone exception being that i removed some of the sprint bloatware. i'll update my post because i probably should have mentioned that. there might be something in that updater-script that needs to be removed or modified to work with your setup. that's the only thing i can think of.

i'm still pretty green here... did i post this in the wrong section? :D
[Epic 4G General] djcslice:
I did make sure signature verification was disabled in clockwork.

Mine is bone stock with the exception of having been rooted with clockwork and then unrooted with clockwork.
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
I want to clarify for everyone that you used the version 2.04 of the all-in-one which has clockworkmod version 2.5.1.0.
[Epic 4G General] n80k:
good catch! thanks i will update that
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Do apps stay in as well? I will odin back to di18 just to get back the apps i cant get in dj28 lol
[Epic 4G General] n80k:
yes i think so. i saw them there but didn't test them. i had a few issues with some of the apps after i converted to ext4 and used cwm to advance restore the frankenstein rom's system underneath my data. i'm pretty sure that is what caused the problems with the apps. not the initial upgrade itself. i think i have a backup i can restore to check. i'll get back to you on that one

I've read through the tutorials, watched youtube vids and still can't flash any roms/radios. I especially want to flash MAGLDR but can't. Just want to flash any Android, WM 6.5 custom roms, WP7. Do I need to go to T-mobile.com to upgrade the rom? Here's some info from the phone.

Did you first try flashing HSPL?

Edit: You need to flash HSPL first, before anything else, including MAGLDR (and the below post's directions). It enables flashing of all other custom ROMS & bootloaders, etc...

1. Synch Phone with PC in Windows Mobile!!! It has to be connected to activesync or WMDC via USB cable

NOTE: As an alternative method to activesync you can restart your phone in Bootloader Mode, then connect the usb cable and wait until 'usb' appears in the bottom half of your phones screen

2. Browse to the folder you extracted your Magldr Package files to on your pc, right click on ROMUpdateUtility.exe and select Run as Administrator

3. Tick the box to confirm you are aware of the risks and select 'Next'

4. Tick the box to confirm you have followed the preperation steps and select 'Next'

* The program will now check the usb connection *

5. Select 'Update'

6. Verify the image you will flash (it should say 2.00.000.0) and Select 'Next'

7. Read the process list and Select 'Next'

8. Your phone will enter BootLoader Mode and the progress will goto 100%

9. Your phone will now Reboot. Congrats, you just flashed MAGLDR.

[HD2 General] waspsl:
HSPL was the obvious problem but your screen image indicates you have already got it downloaded. Did it fully install with no problems?

If you can not install anything, maybe try re-installing HSPL3

The radio you have is 2.08, i would recommend changing up to a later one above 2.10 at least. The exact choice is down to location but 2.15 is good for me.

Coldest's guide looks good for MAGLDR, maybe try hard reset before trying again.

[Galaxy Tab General] BuzzFuzz:
Does anyone know what the problem is?

What ever i typing in Messages or Browser... I only show up null

eg. I pressed the letter S - get written null

I tried with downgrade to old good P1000XXJK5 firmware but error stops flashing :mad:
[Galaxy Tab General] bert269:
Funny that you should mention it.....

I received an SMS with the word NULL in it. I replied to it, but the delivery failed.

Everything else still works fine.

Sorry, but good luck.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
Obviously you've got the protected bootloaders, hence you can't downgrade. I've actually seen this error while customizing, and I think you may be able to just select a different locale, then switch back to your normal locale and it may straighten out. if not, then JMF is a fail.
[Galaxy Tab General] mauwri37:
my JMF no problem

Hi, my JMF euro, firmware from samfirmware ( boot protected) no problem !:) + speed very good
[Galaxy Tab General] jammysunny:
Hi @All,

I heard bout problems with JMF, I actually have Rotohammers v4, which is the best till now, so what is the positive or negative difference to it?

Thx, jammysunny
[Galaxy Tab General] rainbow ng:
I also get the same issue after flashed to JMF, it is the case when using samsung keyboard. If u use swype, the text have no mistake. I also installed cybegon chinese input and no mistake there.

I think the cause it due to Locale and text setting as I set to chinese (taiwan) before I flash to JMF.

I can still flash back to JJ3 , KA1, KM2 whatever I want, (I had deleted all boot and Sbl file in the rom package before I flashed, THANKS to Chainfire and Rotohammer ). The check.bat by Chainfire is correct at this stage.

But I got another issue with DXKM2 and JMF, I flashed to this rom from

ZHKA1 and have no accelerometer sensor & magnetic sensor response.

I think maybe driver problem as they work in jj3 and zhka1.

Could anyone give some advice? Thanks a lot..

:confused::confused::confused:
[Galaxy Tab General] lollo1927:
It happened to me, the solution is to flash the file ALL to pda, CSC in csc and MODEM in phone also the pit attached.

You just have to reboot to set the languages of the handheld and keyboards and everything will work.

sorry my english ...
[Galaxy Tab General] neuropass:
same here. It happened after the uro tab firmware. I flashed to jmf and there you. SO i actually had to flash it selcting Phone, pda, csc to resolve the issue.
[Nook Color General] Ign3nt:
So I have my Nookcolor rooted with the autonooter program, but I want to take it a little further.

Keep in mind that I am VERY new to Android Modding and have little experience.

Because I have my Nookcolor rooted I was blessed to be able to access the Andriod market and I downloaded an app called ROM Manager. I was wondering if I were to download Andriod 2.2 and write it to my SD card, could I use the "boot ROM from SD card" feature to run 2.2 on my Nookcolor? I am sorry if what I am saying is completely ridiculous, its because I have no experience.
[Nook Color General] rainmakerrc:
You can't do that at the moment.

However, if you want to give 2.2 a try on your NC, this is the thread you want to read:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BEERSHARK:
Hi,

I have a HD2 that recently crashed and thought I would re-boot and have a go at installing WP7.

I have downloaded a few things and tinkered a bit without problems, but never cooked a ROM but seem to have fallen at the first hurdle.

I understand I need HSPL3 installed and to do that I need to downgrade to a previous SPL (I am on 3.03.000) and have tried both 2.7 and 2.10 from this site.

I connect the phone, unzip the file, folow the simple instructions and both the screen on the phone and PC start to do things and halt at 0%.

I have soft-reset and tried several times.

I am running ROM 3.14.405.2 unlocked to any network.

Have I missed something?

Thanks in advance.

PS - I did search the forum for an answer but didnt find one. Sorry if I missed it.

Assuming you have a Tmobile USA HD2:

Download and flash the 2.10.0 rom from this link, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=655653 you will get 2.08 SPL which you can flash to HSPL.

But remember to flash a later version radio so as to be able to run android.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirmx:
'S-OFF' is more than just changing your splash screen.

It's also a wonderful recovery and testing tool. With the eng-spl you now have access to fastboot (part of the android sdk, usually in tools folder). You no longer need to boot into recovery to flash things (provided they come in .img format). You also can properly wipe your phone via fastboot. If you ever lock yourself out of recovery, a fix is just a fastboot away.

You also allow for flashing via HBoot also, but with fastboot access it's pretty redundant as HBoot requires a bit more work to get ready.

Pretty much, by going S-OFF with the eng-spl, your chances of a bricked phone are slim to none. As long as you can turn the phone on and access fastboot usb mode, you can get your phone working again.

If you want help with fastboot, simply type fastboot from your android sdk \ tools folder or google it.
