Getting mint i9000, stock want to root/use voodoo sound - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi folks.
A friend gave me her i9000 and its in mint condition, currently running stock android, not even sure what version yet as i'm getting it tomorrow. I want to root and possibly install something like slimbean and use voodoo sound. I have a Galaxy Nexus and i've used a toolkit to root my nexus and use Goo manager & teamwin touch recover for my nexus. Can i use simillar tools for the i9000?
Cheers,
Mick

[Q] Unable to reroot after flashing p1010 to Gingerbread

I recently flashed to Gingerbread on my gt p1010 using the guide found at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410035
Everything is fine however, like the guide mentioned, I need to reroot the phone. I tried using the Superoneclick method that I used before installing gingerbread however it doesnt seem to work. The guide mentioned doing it with CF-ROOT however there doesnt seem to be one that works for the p1010 wifi only version of the tab.
Can anyone help me out?
My gt p1010 info
Firmware 2.3.6
Kernel version 2.6.35.7-CL749223 [email protected] #1
Build number GINGERBREAD.XXKPG
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386643 this one here works, it has some random reboots using root functionality, but it works

This worked. Thank you. One more question if you don't mind.
A new clockwork mod manager was installed using the cf-root you linked. However when I open it it tells me that I'm running a different kernel and that several features have been disabled. Is possible for me to flash a different kernel to gain the usage of these features?

I wouldn't right now. Wait on the real port of CWR that motafoca is working on. Be patient.

[Q] rom manager permium doesn't support galaxy note?!

Hello.
I have galaxy note GT-N7000 with stock rom XLC1.
I purchased and installed Rom Manager Premium v5.0.0.6 from the market
and it seems that when I click on "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" it opens up a list of phone types and none of them is galaxy note.
I get the following list: galaxy S2, Epic4G, epic4G touch, galaxyS i9000, galaxy S2.
one time I tried to change build.properties file to galaxy I9000 (in order to try and install order & chaos from the market) which is listed on the phone brands but since them i flashed my rom and wiped it and re-installed the applications so I have no idea how the rom manager would still think that I have I9000.
any ideas?
you need to root the device and use a kernel that supports recovery..i dont think the version in the market supports the note
I already rooted my phone, installed cwm and abyssnote kernel manually. So I don't see a reason to why it looks like its not supported.

No ROM manager not supports G Note yet.
Flash cfroot for LC1, get CWM for the Note.

do you have any idea why is not supported, and if there is hope.

I am sure it will be supported. I rember when I got the Galaxy S and it was not supported for some time. Same with galaxy s 2. But we have perfectly working cwm thanks to chainfire.
You can use CWM Manager app for various things, including backups. It works perfectly on our Notes.

what can you do with rom manager that you cant do with CWM app and Mobile odin pro?

The only thing I can recall is that ROM Manager can theoretically update your CWM Recovery. Of course, since it doesn't recognize your Note, it can't.

Damn! I wish I had known this before paying out my £4 for something that does f**ck all on my Galaxy Note!
Too late for refund too due to stupid 15 minute trial by Google Play store.

Have patience friend, it will. In the mean time it is an easy way to do CWM updates. Go to cwm nightly in your browser and click the rom manager icon for the version you want to upgrade to and it will auto download and do its auto thing for installing just fine right now. it just cannot recognize the note for cwm recovery or using the download or check for updates. A bit more manual, I admit but it will get there and far easier than manually downloading transferring to phone and then rebooting into recovery to install. It took a while before it was able to fully automate my S2 so it will come to the N7000. I am in the same situation as I recently upgraded to the N7000.

[Q] Question about 4.0 (ICS) **SOLVED**

I know that samsung as announced that Galaxy s wont get an upgrade to 4.0 , I was just wondering does any of you tried running any 4.0 on a Galaxy S , Even if its a leaked or original , I was just wondering if it was running smooth and normal , Or if it will , I'm asking that because S2 will get the upgrade , So S1 should still be available to run it even if its not Officialy Aprouved.
What do you guys think ?
Try SLIM ICS. One of the best 4.0 ROM's
m
Do i need a rooted phone to upgrade to a custom 4.0 , because I cant seem to find a way to root the GT-i9000M ,

tesco galaxy mini

Hello folks
Im enjoying my Gs3 lately but my step daughter isnt enjoying her galaxy mini so i swapped my ported wave 1 and shes loving it lol anyway i now have this galaxy mini can i update the software by porting the phone or does it need to be unlocked from tesco first? its asking for a network lock control key? i can dismiss as there is an option to dismiss and play about with the phone its currently android version 2.3.5 build number "GINGERBREAD ,XWKS7" im in ireland thanks
there's no need to unlock network or bootloader. as you're already on gingerbread, just flash cwm with odin and then pick your poison (rom) you can find all tutorials and guides somewhere around without any problems, just don't ever use rom manager, it tends to brick galaxy mini when you flash cwm with it.

you're welcome, i use cyanogenmod 10.1 as a daily driver, it's good for me. drains battery quite quick, but other than that it's almost perfect please don't start "best rom, recommend a rom" threads, as they're not allowed and are getting closed

i have cyanogenmod 7 on the mini now but do i need 10.1 to have google playstore? i want to get some apps etc
edit update
OK i have to do this "Optional: Place any supplemental packages (eg Google Apps or kernel) .zip file(s) on the root of the SD card."
which over looked in the install guide so here goes the 10.1 attempt lol
oh my brain lol i had cm-7 flashed on the samsung mini and was working away fine but no google play store
and only android keyboard so i realised i needed other zip files to have other features so i found these tass-recovery-cwm.tar
cm-7-20130201-NIGHTLY-tass.zip
Samsung_Keyboard_CM7_En-It-Es-Pt.zip
Trans-Soft-Buttons-Nightly-08192012.zip
gapps-gb-20130109-signed.zip
when i reflashed the phone etc the phone firstly ended up with no keyboard despite having the android keyboard selected when i go into language and keyboard settings it backs up to the main menu so i tried again and now its stuck in some kind of boot loop.
ive put this stock rom (MJKT3_annson08) on now and it seems fine but can anyone advise whats happened with my cm-7 setup which was fine the first time but as i said i only had android keyboard and no play store etc the fix seemes easy but its not working for me thanks
i guess that the keyboard you flashed was faulty, and to have play store and such you need to flash gapps_gb package instead of samsung keyboard, try downloading swype
