hmmm...I need the youtube app as workaround to get access to google market :(

uninstall via adb was not successfull. but it seems as my nc has a general problem with signing in...kindle app is unable to connect to the internet (wifi: full connectivity, internet active), facebook via stock browser is crashing as soon as I push the sign in button.

Retrieve Youtube by re-rooting (auto nooter)

Have you used auto nooter to root? If yes, and you've removed Youtube from the NC, i just put the auto nooter file back on the SD card and re root following the usual instructions. I had removed it, hoping to just install it again, but like you say, market doesn't show it. I re-rooted my NC and Youtube was back. *Just remember as the below poster shows by linking the other thread, do not sign-in, just leave it normal, i and others had issue when you log in.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mosesport:
So, yesterday, I decided to finally jump into the abyss and try to root my Evo. Luckily, everything went completely smooth the first time (never had that happen with any other device). I was actually surprised how easy this root was.

Anyway...my question is, if I decide to flash another ROM on my phone, or rather, in 10 minutes WHEN I flash another ROM onto my phone, if I decide I don't like it, how do I reflash my original NANDROID backup back onto the phone?

I was able to navigate on my SD to where the backup was saved, but shouldn't it be a ZIP file or something? I only have individual backup files.

Also, sorry for the noob question.

Thanks in advance for your help :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
You go into recovery to do a nandroid restore. Its not something you flash. There is an option for backups and restore. You just run those. I like to do a full wipe before a restore though, just in case. Oh, and keep your backups in the original folder, thats where recovery will get them from

It definitely helped to get back to the stock ROM, but now it appears as though no other ROMs are working for me. I've tried MIUI and MikFroyo, and they both get stuck in boot loops. There's something I'm apparently not doing right. Hmmm.

Did you wipe data/cache/dalvik before flashing the roms?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyapd21:
Are you updated to the latest Radio and pri? You have to check what version you have and what version you need to flash the rom you want to use. That is most likely the problem. I know older kernels do not like the new radio or pri. You probably have to update them and you should be fine.
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
Hi All!

I just made my first custom ROM:

It based on stock 2.2 JPF: only modification is rooting and converting to ext2 data system and cache partitions.

Flash it after flashing full stock JPF (My ROM don't contain bootloader, modem etc, so you must first flash stock JPF)

DON'T wipe after reboot, it will format you data and cache partitions back to RFS. I don't changed recovery binary, so please don't wipe if you want ext

ROM works OK for both rfs and ext2, so it will work, but no point to use my ROM with rfs

Any feedback is appreciated.

Update:

My JPM ROM converted to ext4

Stock firmware, only changes are rooted, busybox, fugutweak, (removed Layar and thinkfree for space, ext4 left less space for users ;( )

quadrant score is 470

Used apollo5801 kernel with modified initramfs to allow ext4 ext2 and rfs FS on all partitions, it use possibility to have data2sd

As for me, use ext4 for /system is has no much sense. Better use ext2 for /system and /cache, wile using ext4 for /data

/system normally is R/O, /cache has no vital information, so it better to use it with ext2 for performance

[Galaxy 3 General] szabof1:
Interested in it. Give a detailed list of steps, please.

Hello,

I am interested in your ext2 ROM.

It's not quite clear for me how to flash it. I mean this: "DON'T wipe after reboot". Do you mean I should not do a factory reset? What about factory reset right after flashing stock JPF?

Would you write a detailed list of steps?

Thank you.
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
My ROM is kind of POC, it's not customized or so, main goal is try ext2 instead of rfs

1 - Flash stock JPF firmware.

2. - After flashing stock JPF you may do "wipe data/factory reset", or don't do factory reset.

3. - Flash my ROM.

4. - After reboot don't do "wipe data/factory reset" or "wipe cache partition", just choose "reboot system now"

If you do all right, you will get system data and cache partitions in ext2, only efs partition will stay in rfs.
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
hello. you converted the partitions /system /data and /cache to .ext2.

With a factory reset, the partitions will be converted back to .rfs?
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
Hello

system partition in any case will stay in ext2

"wipe data/factory reset' will reformat data and cache partition to rfs

"wipe cache partition" will reformat cache partition to rfs

Because of this don't do factory reset if you want test ext2 for data or cache partitions

P.S. looks like we need tweaked/custom recovery, if you know any - send me a link, pls
[Galaxy 3 General] santhosh5639:
does it is working
[Galaxy 3 General] szabof1:
I flashed your ROM

Hello,

I flashed your ext2 ROM just now.

Everything seems to be OK.

mount shows:

"/dev/block/stl6 /system ext2 rw,relatime,errors=continue 0 0

/dev/block/stl7 /data ext2 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,errors=continue 0 0

/dev/block/stl8 /cache ext2 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,errors=continue 0 0"

It is rooted and has busybox installed by default! Thanks.
[Galaxy 3 General] szabof1:
Stock JPF upgraded by your ext2 ROM still workes well.

I also use Link2SD with 2nd (ext2) SD card partition for selected programs.
[Galaxy 3 General] szabof1:
Is ext3 file system supported on SG3?

If yes, is it possible to convert /system, /data and /cache partitions to ext3 instead of ext2?
[Galaxy 3 General] kyrillos13:
it isnt possible. When sammy release froyo kernel sources we will convert the partitions to ext4...
[Galaxy 3 General] szabof1:
I do not know ext4. Why is ext4 better than rfs? What is the performance difference between ext2, ext4 and rfs?
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
From my ext2 ROM: overall performance index by Quadrant increased from 325 to 520 after converting from rfs to ext2

ext4 is must be faster than ext2, but it uses more CPU, so need to get real user experience.
[Galaxy 3 General] anly11:
hi mumbozver,

what do you think about deodexing? does it make sence make ROM deodexed if this ROM is converted to ext2? i have heard some thoughts deodexed rom is not faster than non-deodexed... the higher performance is reached by ext2, not deodexing. is it true?
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
Deodexing is increase first boot time after flashing and decrease available space in /data partition, but increase space in /system (you will get half of space, that you are wasting in /data. In deodexed ROM you need to store odexed "classes.dex" in /data/dalvik-cache and zipped deodexed "classes.dex: inside *.apk or *.jar files on /system).

So you will get lesser overall free space in you phone and slower first boot. Thats all about deodexing performance.

Main reason to get deodexed ROM is ability to change themes, and possibly put in /system some program of user choice, so programs will survive factory reset. But in my ROM factory reset will convert /data and /cache partitions back to rfs, so deodexing in my point is not needed.
[Galaxy 3 General] anly11:
i have flashed your rom, everything seems to be ok. quadrant score: over 500
[Galaxy 3 General] Vishnu N S:
Thanks for the ROM....:) Just a question of how long the battery lasts...? Is it over a day...
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
It depend of usage pattern.

I use it lightly, just few minutes of call per day, but always on Wi-Fi or 3G connection, skype chats and email checks.

After Gallery3d removal it run something about 2 days.
[Galaxy 3 General] Dasdranamin:
mumbozver

I don't understand.

Yesterday was your explanation about deodexing.

Now i can't see this one :confused:

Why?

Is this a "postmoderating"?

Add.

Sorry.

It's very strange. I see it again!

[Galaxy 3 General] Vishnu N S:
You could look at this work by Apollo ---> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=978750

He's already done ext4 on all three partitions... You could do the same and give us ur ROM :)
[Galaxy 3 General] mumbozver:
I personally prefer don't mix up converting ROM to ext4 and customizing app, framework tweaking, deodexing etc.

If something goes wrong, how can anyone tell is it because kernel/ext4 or tweaked app?

I prefer get worked ext4 ROM with close to stock firmware (just rooting + busybox) in first step. In second step: if all ok with ext4 start to tweak app's
[Galaxy 3 General] Thom47:
Sounds good to me. That way we can choose between a clean ext4 ROM or Apollo's one.

One question, are you going to base it off JPL? I'd like to try that ROM out but with ext4 conversion.

why do u think so? ext2 is faster than ext4 at least in the phones on NAND-based flash memory). there are many posts in SGS forums about that. also i saw the benchmark where ext2 was winner.

Hi,

I was wondering if there is any way to extract the firmware from my S8500T handset? I'm wanting to do this as there is no copy of this firmware available and I want it as a back-up in case things go wrong with flashing to other firmwares.

my S8500T runs S8500MBJF2, S8500HUTJF2

any ideas?

thanks!
[Bada Software and Hacking General] KrazyKong:
What country / provider is your phone?
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
@ beigebullet

Please post Product Code you see this via sTune. Something like this : GT-S8500BAADBT

So I could try something...

About your Question.

Not impossible, but only JTAG known to dump Firmware. :(

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] beigebullet:
my phone is Australia and Three Hutchison
[Bada Software and Hacking General] beigebullet:
Ah do you mean 'Product Name'? In sTune all I get is xxxxxxxxxxxx.

I've manually changed my CSC from HUT (ie. Three Hutchison australia) to KOR but I can change that back if needed...

I've uploaded a pic of what it shows me
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
Yes, correct.

xxxxxxxx I saw several times.

This means NV item 2757 (HEX Value) is empty.

Kies without valid Product Code do nothing. :(

P.S:

S8500T :confused:

Attention!

I'm not sure. But for instance S8500R seems to have problems with normal Firmware... maybe incompatibility.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] beigebullet:
Hmm, so can I somehow get a valid Product Code from Samsung?

And yes, the S8500T is not compatible with normal firmware, as the T version runs on 850/2100Mhz bands, not the 900/2100 on standard firmware. This is the reason I want to extract the firmware from my phone, as I'd like it for a backup.

Thanks for your help adfree :)

Hi guys, this is my first post, I'll be quick.

3 months ago i got from my brother, a really nice and shiny HTC WIZARD G3 (from T-Mobile)

my bro has flashed the phone before, with a WM5 custom ROM from Tau-Rho and i have flashed the 6.5 ROM MEGAWIZARD on it, and some time later the 6.5.0 from MSD (Estrange thing: Although, i have flashed the WM Rom, the first Screen that the phone presents when we turned it on is the same than in the old WM5 rom)

Everything was working great, except for one little thing, the reception of signal on the phone was too poor, with any of the 3 roms. then i decide to test another RADIO ROM on the Wiza.

I have downloaded few RADIO_ONLY roms but i can only use the 1.x.x.x Versions. with V2.x.x.x Roms the phone just froze my wiza in boot

I have tested this radio roms:

T-Mobile-US_2.24.10----------DON'T WORK

Xda-Minis_2.21.4----------DON'T WORK

I Take some screens but XDA don't let me show them..

When my cell phone boot with a working Radio Rom show this on boot:

IPL: 1.01

SPL: 1.01

GSM: 1.13.10.0

OS: 6.5.0.0

When it boot with a NOT WORKING Radio Rom Show this on boot screen:

IPL: 1.01

SPL: 1.01

OS: 6.5.0.0

and it just restart the phone after that and restart and restart and restart.

i can go back to a working radio rom, flashing it trough the BOOOTLOADER, but i need to install a newer Radio rom. My Bro told me than i should to get back to the T-Mobile WM5 Original rom to instal a newer RadioRom, i have not attempted that method yet.

Any idea to make my Wiza to boot with a newer Radio rom?

PD: Whats the difference between a .NBF and a .NBA radio rom? i have installed .nbf radio roms only.

Thank you all for your support!

1st of all i want to apologize for my bad english and i hope this is the right forum.

Few hours ago i had installed a new rom (SuperGinger - Android 2.3.2), it was just fine, until i applied the app2sd option from SupSetupV16 application. After that my phone turned off with no reason and from then it restarts again and again. I've tried with an sdcard with ext3 & fat32 partition (cuz the app2sd option in this rom requires it, but i didn't saw it earlier) and the phone loaded the start animation of the rom, than turned off and all over again. The battery level was almost 50% just before the 1st restart, and now the phone is in the charger. The phone does not receive any command from the hardware buttons, just cant enter the recovery mode .. i feel rly fckd up. No volume up + power, volume down, back + power .. nothing. I'll charge it all night and try again in the morning. Somehow im smelling the service ...

Long story short, I can upgrade my phone every 8-12 months for the subsidized price. I bought my captivate when it came out, and im up for another upgrade if I want.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
+1 on the wait to see what happens with the atrix. motorola builds a decent piece of hardware and with it's shear processing power it cant be slow and the huge battery is either a sign that battery life wont suffer or that running two cores makes it a serious battery sucker.

if you think you can ever be satisfied with a stock phone then sure get the atrix but for many of us the tinkering is an addiction so if that's the case with you i'd wait to see what the developers create for it. samsung makes it too easy to flash. im personally waiting to see the infuse but if it turns out to be single core and has the same graphics chip ill wait till my contract is up to upgrade. if htc could make the desire hd/inspire thinner like a galaxy s i'd get that even though it's not exactly ground breaking at this point in time.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reefermattness:
Substitute all that last part with "fixes from private forum developers" and you could say that with just about any phone released in the past 8 years...
