Guest xig Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 would it be possible to include the custom kernel which enables ext4 support? this would be really great :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lilla Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Thanks. I've Astro file manager but it says that file is not erasable. I need to buy RootExplorer to set permissions to delete it? Or that is another way to do it? Afaik this is payable app. Another way is to use adb shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jonsat Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Afaik this is payable app. Another way is to use adb shell. I definitely agree with you, in fact I'm a donor user. I was just wondering if Astro would suffice for that. Bought RootExplorer... and it was THE solution. :angry: Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AndyCr15 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Where are the stock apps in the device? I did ask in it's own thread, but no-one answered :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fredphoesh Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 yeah i have problems with titamium also, seems to get confused. When did you run the restore with it? after or before you did the market fix? Hi guys, I get my GalaxyS today... WRT Titanium, from my HTC Hero rom experience, you must never restore EVERYTHING because a lot of what titanium backs up are system programmes, and those will update/change with different roms... so make sure you only restore 3rd party apps, or apps that did not come installed with the phone.

Guest seraphine Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 If I want to go back to the original firmware is it simply a matter of flashing the right version to match the original? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fredphoesh Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE YOU START! No, really, it contains everything you need to know. :angry: P Hi guys, Im desperate for some help!? Im busy trying to flash my Galaxy S, I got it today... Its quite different from flashing my HTC Hero it seems... now I am worried I have done something to it and cannot get out of "Do not turn off Target!!!" I downloaded the I9000XWJG1.rar file from the site Paul linked Downloaded Odin3 and the PIT file I also cooked and downloaded the rom from Pauls kitchen I followed the Flash guide that was on the Samsung-Firmwares.com site where I had got the I9000XWJG1, Odin3 and PIT. The first step was to flash the PIT using Odin3. That seemed to be ok, but then the phone would not boot up. It would not even start booting up. It would only respond to going into "download mode". The second problem was that the I9000XWJG1 file is a rar file, not a tar file!? So I looked in the RAR file and sure enough there were 4 tar files. So I thought I was supposed to flash each of those separatedly (there was no way to flash the .rar file) Now I have been "flashing" the first tar file, the biggest one, for about 20 mins and my phone still says "Do not turn off Target!!!" Im petrified Ive destroyed my phone on day 1?? Please help if possible, thanks, Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to flash all those files at the same time. PIT file goes in the PIT pda=code phone=modem csc=csc I always choose repartition. Yours is obviously stuck, do you have a green bar at all on it (progress bar)? just restart, turn the phone off, boot it back into downloading mode and do it again. Sometimes odin seems to have issues and restarting the pc fixes it too. Edited July 16, 2010 by Kilack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JuW Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 And if odin doesnt recognise your phone, you can just plug off and plug in again the usb cable. Do this always when something goes wrong and you have to start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to flash one at a time eventually, then saw your instructions... next time I will know better. tx again Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do this always when something goes wrong and you have to start again. I'll add that sometimes if you really mess up the flashing, it helps to plug the cable in another USB port on the computer (it will get picked up as another COM port). In one case I found this stopped me having to reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gthmcty1 Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Okay guys ran into a a bit of a problem I have a rooted Vibrant (Tmo stock rom) and decided to flash JG1 (re-partitioned was check) everything went accordingly and I was able to flash it, it booted up fine I inserted my sim card, got the English language, everything went well except one thing.................I CANNOT GET SIGNAL, I try and go into search for the network manually and Tmo does not come up and it will NOT connect to a network and then I tried to flash JG5 and the same thing I followed everything to a tee. The phone is fine but it seems as though i have no radio, I have lost all the stock widgets that shipped with the phone, WIFI works and I can get everything to work except I cannot make a call any body have any suggestions? At this point I would be happy putting it back to stock. PS also the volume up and down buttons are reversed up is down and down is up and I cannot put the phone in recovery mode via holding the up and down buttons together along with the power button, and I cannot adb it because it is not rooted any longer.....Heeeeeeeelp!

Tmobile use 2100 yeah? seems strange the radio would drop out. Most of the flashes have been done on the international versions of the galaxy. The reverse of the controls seems normal though.. americans love to be different :angry: Sorry i couldnt help.. hopefully someone else with a vibrant can shed some light.. always pays to wait and less someone else be the guinea pig man :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dellis421 Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Hey Guys my friend gave me a Captivate and I'm trying to root it and install Modaco. I've rooted plenty Android devices but with this one everytime I run adb reboot recovery it sits on the AT&T logo and doesn't allow me to flash the root file update.zip. It hangs and hangs and finally I just have to reboot bootloader. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just go to your carrier and ask a new phone, cause YOU brick it?? Just curious, cause it`s not so simple in Finland... Yes I called CS first just so that it could be notated that I did talk to them already and also keep in mind that I had purchased it 2 days earlier and they also thought that maybe it was my sim card because it was the original one since I started with Tmo. Also the phone worked and powered up and functioned as normal BUT it just would not get signal on T mobile, so they gave a new phone free of charge Edited July 18, 2010 by gthmcty1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're different, but we know up from down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kris_cs1 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Don't know if it is the ROM or the SGS because I didn't test it beforehand but 'Pure Calendar' app doesn't show up on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
