My Galaxy stuck in Galaxy Next boot
realy thank you my phone is destroy thank you full
my phone run and say Galaxy Next and page not changed
T-Mobile/Samsung have rebranded the Exhibit II 4G, giving us a new kernel, a bump to Android v2.3.6 and performance improvements (they claim) in the process. The phone we all love is now the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G.
This stock ROM (UVLG3) is NOT vulnerable to USSD Dialer Attacks!
Rooting
Currently, zergrush will not root this phone's Android 2.3.6. Three known methods:
Root Stock 2.3.6 w/o a new kernel or ROM
root-stock.zip
Mirror
This zip will install Superuser, su and busybox, leaving you rooted, but otherwise no changes to your phone. ClockworkMod must be installed to flash this. So:
1. Flash ClockworkMod
2. Boot into ClockworkMod and flash root-stock.zip.
Rooted Community ROM (forkable)
t679.uvlg3.odex.01.zip
Mirror
(also see custom ROMs)
Linked above is Samsung's newest release for the Galaxy Exhibit, a stock rooted UVLG3 Gingerbread ROM. Busybox is also included. You must flash it via clockworkmod. Clockworkmod can be flashed with Samsung's stock recovery.
Custom rooted kernel
t679-root-v1.8.zip
Mirror
Kernel sources
The kernel is based on Samsung's kernel source. This kernel is rooted; if you flash it via stock recovery or cwm your ROM will be rooted with Superuser.apk, Busybox and the Galaxy Exhibit cwm-recovery installed. This kernel works with all Samsung Gingerbread releases.
Rooted ROM Installation
CWM Keys:
Home key = enter
Back key = back
VolUp/Dwn = highlight choice
1. Back up your data. The installation will format your data partition. I suggest Titanium Backup, available in the Market.
2. Download & copy the current t679.uv???.deodex.0x.zip to your internal sd card (if you already have a cwm installed you may use your removable card).
3. Install Galaxy Exhibit Custom Recovery . If you're already rooted, you may install from the command line, otherwise you may install from Samsung's Recovery. Samsung's recovery only sees the internal SD, so copy the cwm zip there if you just have stock recovery. Stock recovery sometimes takes more than one try to start.
Easy way to start recovery
* Make sure the cwm zip is on your internal (non-removable) sd.
* Pull the battery from your phone.
* Connect phone to your pc via usb.
* Press & hold Volume-up
* Insert battery
Your phone will boot into recovery. Press the capacitive menu button (left bottom button) when you see the open white box and droid. Choose 'apply update from sdcard' and select the cwm zip file.
4. Start Custom Recovery (cwm): Press & hold Vol-Up, then press & hold Power. Shortly after the plain white Samsung logo appears, release both buttons. Recovery should start after the Galaxy Exhibit logo.
5. Select ROMwipe. This step is required!
6. Highlight install zip from sdcard, then press Home.
7. Highlight 'choose zip from sdcard/external sdcard, depending where you placed the download in step 2.
8. Highlight the rooted rom zip file, then press Home.
After you confirm your choice, installation should take less than three minutes.
Anything you download and install is at your own risk. No guarantees or warranties are given or implied. Your first post-installation boot may be several minutes long.

2. Download & copy t679-root-v1.8.zip to your internal sd card (if you already have a cwm installed you may use your removable card).
It's recommended to install Clockwork Mod, but you can also flash the kernel from Samsung's stock recovery. Samsung's recovery only sees the internal sd, so copy files there if you don't have cwm.
Stock recovery sometimes takes more than one try to start.
Easy way to start recovery
* Make sure the cwm zip is on your internal (non-removable) sd.
* Pull the battery from your phone.
* Connect phone to your pc via usb.

5. Highlight install zip from sdcard, then press Home.
6. Highlight 'choose zip from sdcard/external sdcard, depending where you placed the download in step 2.
7. Highlight the kernel zip file, then press Home.
After you confirm your choice, installation should take less than a minute.

SwapSD
SwapSD This simple app allows you to swap internal "usb storage" (aka /sdcard) and your removable sdcard (aka external_sd) so your larger "external sd" is mounted as "/mnt/sdcard/" and the smaller sd internal memory is mounted as "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd". This is done by changing a file called vold.fstab in your phone's /etc folder. The original device vold.fstab file is backed up to /etc/vold.fstab.backup when this app first runs. Your data on /mnt/sdcard and /mnt/sdcard/external_sd is not touched in any way whatsoever.
Dropbear (flash via cwm)

Galaxy Exhibit cwm-based recovery v6.0.1.2
6.0.1.2 has new features, including better support for both external and internal SD cards, faster backups and restores with a new backup format that de-duplicates data in between backups. Exclusive features for Galaxy Exhibit include:
wipe menu with rom wipe
All system wipes under one menu: rom (system/cache/data),cache,dalvik,cache/dalvik,data.
Stack zip files for installation:
Flash cm9 & gapps, etc. Select as many zip files for installation as you choose. Flash them all with one command.
Install system images:
Drop any recognized system image into a folder on your phone and recovery can flash it. You can even drop the entire contents of an odin tar/md5 file in a folder and cwm recovery will flash it all automatically.
All images must conform to Odin naming standards:
adsp.mbn

To initially install Galaxy Exhibit Custom Recovery you need to:
1. Copy cwm.galaxy.exhibit.zip to your internal SD storage.
2. Boot into stock recovery:
Starting recovery: Press & hold Vol-Up, then press & hold Power. Shortly after the plain white Samsung logo appears, release both buttons.
Or a different method some find easier:
* Pull the battery from your phone.
* Connect phone to your pc via usb.
* Press & hold Volume-up
* Insert battery
Recovery should start after the Galaxy Exhibit/T-Mobile logo.
3. Press the capacitive menu button (left bottom button) when you see the open white box and droid. Choose 'apply update from sdcard' and select the cwm.galaxy.exhibit.zip file.
If you already have cwm installed, to update follow the steps above, booting into your current cwm instead of stock recovery.

You're welcome. Just fyi, I'm no longer going to post in the old dev thread or discussion thread. I also plan to make good use of the <reserved> posts above for Galaxy Exhibit links and information.
I'm committed to this phone for the long haul, so thanks for joining me here. I hope this thread will be used for any general discussion of our Galaxy Exhibits (concerning development as well). I also hope folks will evangelize and point people here rather than carry on in the older abandoned OP threads.
Nice job jocala! Thanks.
Sent from my Calculator with Android.
So the rom is stock exhibit after the update... Other than being rooted and the custom recovery, correct? Much rather flash that then go back to stock then update. Thank you for that.

The rebranding works out nicely, if for no other reason than providing a point of demarcation.
Many props to Jocala who is awesome, as we all know. It can't be said too often but we'll try not to overdo it. :thumbup:

Ditto here man. We'd all be screwed & tattooed without his know-how. BTW worth mentioning I had to refreeze all the bloatware again after the update. Noticed how the phone lagged and then checked Titanium Backup. Sure enough all the crap was back. Also re-check settings in programs like Juice Defender and Rom Toolbox. I had to re-enter some of them again as well.
Has anyone managed to update successfully while already being rooted? (Specifically by Zerg Rush method)
I've yet to received the OTA notification and still holding off If i should update using the software. Stock ROM but just rooted. Holding off on "flashing" anything as I've never done it before.

That's not true at all, but thanks for saying it. Anyone handy with *nix can do what I do, and 95% (or more) of the techniques I use were pioneered by others here on xda.
Hey so i was just looking, and had a few questions, the rom you say is stock and odexed, are all the official roms odexed? Also just curious is the extra file in ur rooted rom, that are not in stock, extra like tweaks or part of odex or are they needed? some are just text and xml so im sure prolly wouldnt hurt, but not exatly the same as stock. Also depending on the answers to the above would you mind looking at the rom i made or maybe releaseing one that has no extras just root and busybox so stock kernel and recovery?
edit: also just noticed theres an extra folder(not in stock) T9DB just wondering what they are for or what they do, looks to be like something for the keyboard?
edit2: i think i answered one of my questions stock is odexed., other questions still wondering about though. It also looks like you might have taken a different approach to rooting the rom, maybe you could look at mine see if its just complete fail or not lol and or maybe pming me, to avoid clutter, on how you did urs.
ive made sooo many edits lol but just wanted to add too, thanx for all the work you have done for us.

The phones I use have always come odexed. I know of no other root methods. I don't have time to beta your rom, but feel free to post a link. I'm sure you'll have volunteers
cool, and no problem, and basically all i did was use the dsixd kitchen and added root(from in the kitchen menu), does that not really root it? does that just change the file permissions? cause when i did that it added the su binary so i assumed it did, but doesn't look like thats what you did, urs has a mkroot folder that im gonna guess is used by the update-script to add the su binary and such.

You are correct
Flashed the ROM, all went smooth, but I can't install anything from the Market. Every time I try I get "ERROR "Blah" Could not be downloaded due to an error." Any ideas? Did a full romwipe and dalvik before flashing. The markets not even updating to Play store either.

Root ICS rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1659308
Install abyssnote 4.2 kernel (via recovery). Method : 1. download AbyssNote 4.2 kernel and place it on your internal/external SD Card Also download the ICS Rom you want to install and put it on your SD card. 2. reboot to CWMR (press and hold volume up + home + power button) and do a backup of your current system 3. after your backup is done, stay in Recovery 4. go to install a zip from SD card --> select AbyssNote 4.2 zip and flash it 5. go back to CWMR's root menu --> advanced --> reboot recovery 6. you'll find yourself in AbyssNote's Touch Recovery (select options by tapping them, not by using the volume rocker and home button) 7. factory reset --> wipe cache --> wipe dalvik 9. flash the ICS Rom of your choice 10. reboot and let the Rom settle for a couple of minutes
Now comes the important part...check if you have root.
Start any Explorer with root permissions (Root Explorer, Es Explorer, X Explorer etc.). Copy any file (a picture, txt file, MP3, whatever). Navigate to /system folder Change the /system folder's permissions to R/W. Paste the file you have copied into /system. If the pasting goes through OK, you're fully rooted. Delete the file you've just pasted and set /system as R/O again
Thank u guys for reply.But i want to know is it possible to root my note staying in this KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v3.0 or i do have to go back to GB n then start the process again like the video tutorial?

5) wipe cache --> wipe dalvik 9
6) flash Kingdroid v3 again.
Ok thank u for ur reply.But is it safe to install the AbyssNote 4.2 kernel now as my note is not rooted.Will it harm my warranty?N i need another suggestion from u Which custom rom will be better?I used Paranoid 2.0 before.I loved it but had too many problem too.No FM n i was unable to install any official stuff like S Voice,the official ICS premium suite.So i need a custom rom where i'll be able to get all the official stuff n i'll have no lagging with launchers like Go launcher,ADW etc.Thank u again.
Oh i forgot to ask do i need to downgrade to GB before i flash the AbyssNote 4.2 kernel.As i'm with the KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v3.0 now.
I suggest you make a GB stock rom (Directly Rootable) download here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 ... rom a very good and the cyanogen 9.

i installed dovakhiin ics for old bootloader, the problem was the same. ROM is good, but, sorry to say i need bluetooth, because i have elm327 bluetooth in my car)
anyone have any ideas how to fix bluetooth?
This ROM is the most stable one I've seen. Only the huge downside is the Bluetooth. I mean I used it alot. :/
No SMS 160 Charac problem... its just Perfect with a slight downsider.
Hoping for a fix on this
I can not fix myself, I need help, I think the Problem in the modules, who knows what modules are responsible for BT
SU 660 ICS Full Stock Kernel
I compiled a full stock kernel (zImage) using the SU660 defconfig from source for y'all , hope this helps and hope it works out , it got all default modules included.
Just flash with cwm. I don't have the su660 , I got the 990.
See attachments.
If it was helpful a thank you button isn't to hard to press :good:
Maybe I do a OC version for y'all with extra modules......
EDIT:
This is a zImage only with modules so you need to flash this over a already existing installation, or you need to make me a backup of your boot.img (ICS) , post it and I will make a full kernel (zImage + ramdisk = boot.img) I got the ramdisk of the p990 but I don't know if it is 100% the same as SU-660.

replaced the boot.img from backup boot.img
Info
Here is the full boot.img (zImage+ramdisk).
I put it in a cwm flashable zip , so just flash it with cwm.
ps: @SuRMaJ I noticed that the zip you uploaded the boot.img is installed on "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5". That is old GB partition layout.
In the cwm zip I uploaded (see attachments) the boot.img is installed in "/dev/block/mmcblk0p6" = ICS partition layout. I think that you are using the ICS partition layout and not the GB layout so the one you posted installed boot.img in the wrong place if you used it.
This is the partiton layout of the ICS recovery you say users need to pick (P990-ICS-cwm-6.0.2.5.img)
# mount point fstype device [device2] fstype2
/recovery emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
/boot emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p9
/external_sd vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p11
/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
This is the partition layout of GB:
# mount point fstype device [device2] fstype2
/recovery emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p7
/boot emmc /dev/block/mmcblk0p5
/cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
/external_sd vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p9
/system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

I'm guessing you are just using the installation zip of the CM boot.img version which was build to use on old partition layout.

replaced the boot.img from backup CWM
can be combined ICS-SU-660-Full_Stock_bootIMG.zip and SU-660-Full_stock_ICS-Kernel.zip?
after the installation of your ICS-SU-660-Full_Stock_bootIMG.zip
When I connect the phone tightly usb asleep, only helps to pull out the battery
