Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G

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.

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)
is a software package that provides a Secure Shell-compatible (ssh) server and client. It is designed as a replacement for standard OpenSSH for environments with low memory and processor resources, such as embedded systems. This archive also includes the scp and rsync utilities.

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
amss.mbn
boot.img
cache.img.ext4
preload.img.ext4
recovery.img
system.img.ext4

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.
Should you need to install ClockworkMod via Odin:

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.

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.

Yep, that's it. Purely stock except for root, busybox & recovery.

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.

Help, please: Boot loop during Cyanogenmod zip install

Hello,
I'm not gonna panic, as I think Ive not bricked my phone YET.
Here is what I have done, I have a GALAXY S I9000.
Have been using it for quite some time now. 2 years ago, I have flashed it with - hardcore's kernel with the ClockworkMod Recovery - using Odin.
Today I decided to give Cyanogenmod a go, followed the steps here. - http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide
Since I have the hardoce's kernel, I skipped this Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery - and moved on to - Flashing CyanogenMod.
I will go step by step from here.
Download the latest version of CyanogenMod.
Optional: Download the Google Apps for the device.
Place the CyanogenMod update.zip file on the root of the internal memory.
Optional: Place the Google Apps .zip on the root of the internal memory also.
Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.
Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and either the power button or the trackball to select.
Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.
Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.
Select Install zip from sdcard.
done these, no problem so far.
[*]Select Choose zip from sdcard.
when I chose this, phone rebooted, it was so fast something may have come up and I didnt see.
Now I am stuck in a boot loop:
- Galaxy S I9000 samsung screen comes up, goes away for a second, comes up again.
- A page with code appearing from the bottom comes up really fast ( logo in the middle changes quickly) then it disappears.
- whole thing starts again.
UPDATE: I got a picture of the fast screen that comes up. : http://localhostr.com/files/b5NzFRy/2012-08-27 05.07.32.jpg
Some observations.
- I can go into download mode when opening it with the key combo.
- loop only stops when I unplug the battery
I need advice on what caused this and how to fix this, please help me.

are you not able to get into recovery? If only download than you need to get back to GB and than do a progressive update from GB to ICS to JB

Flash it again. From what I've heard, it only flashes the kernel the first time.

I had the same problem today with CM7 today. Just reboot in recovery and flash again cm zip, form there on everything is gonna run smooth!

1) DON'T WORRY !
2) Unplug the battery when bootlooping
3) Put the SGS in Recovery Mode (the CWM's version has changed)
4) Select the CM .zip and flash it AGAIN
5) When it's done, reboot system
This time, everything shoot be OK
Just be carefull with your IMEI (always have a backup of EFS folder !)

Same here, after the Samsung and CM logos, and splash animation, it says :
"Encryption unsuccessful.
Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible.
To resume using your phone, you must perform a factory reset...."
After I tap Reset phone, it goes to CWM recovery.
Do the factory reset and the same thing occured in loop.

Please Help! Trying to flash Jellybean rom.

I have a rooted 2.2 Captivate with Clockwork mod version 2.5.1.2 installed. Rom manger acts as though everything is working but when I go to reboot into CWM recovery I get the stock 3e. I go to reinstall packages. I end up with "E:failed to verify whole-file signature" "E:signature varification failed" My intentions were to follow the instructions I found on Android Authority.
they are:
1. Copy the Devil RC3 kernel and the CyanogenMod 10 V2 ROM files to your Captivate’s internal SD Card.
2. Turn off your Captivate.
3. Boot into Recovery Mode. You can do this by pressing and holding down the Volume Up, Volume Down, and Power buttons. When the screen turns on, let go of all three buttons.
*I'm stuck at this point because it won't load CWM
4. In recovery, use the Volume keys to navigate and the Power button to select.
5. Make a NANDroid Backup of your current ROM. Select Backup and Restore and select Backup.
6. Select Wipe Data/Factory Reset. Confirm the action on the next page.
7. Select Install ZIP from SD Card.
8. Select Choose ZIP from SD Card and locate the Devil RC3 kernel.
9. After the Devil RC3 kernel has finished flashing, choose Install ZIP from SD Card again.
10. Select Choose ZIP from SD Card and locate the CyanogenMod 10 V2 ROM file.
11. After the CyanogenMod 10 V2 ROM file has finished flashing, select Go Back.
12. Select Advanced > Fix Permissions.
Return to main recovery menu and select Reboot System Now.
Thanks in advance.

Have a look at this link. Hopefully it will help you get to where you want to be. Also remember over-reading about what you are wanting to do is better than trying to find a solution to something because you missed a step.

Thank you.
I have a question. Do I need to flash the Devil RC3 kernel or should I just install the CyanogenMod 10 V2 rom from zip? Or should I flash the speedmod kernel on odin, then from CWM install the Devil RC3 kerenel, Then install CyanogenMod 10 V2. I just wondered if the two kerenels would conflict or if I would even need Devil RC3?

First of all you're getting a little ahead of yourself in trying to get to CM10 from where you are. Being on 2.2 you will need to get to a gingerbread ROM first as the bootloaders are different and will cause issues trying to go to CM10 if you don't go to gingerbread first.
The following link will take you to some one-click utilities that will update you to gingerbread along with the needed bootloaders. Also I suggest picking one from the list that says it has a CWM kernel injected so that you can save a step after the flash and have a CWM recovery kernel already installed.
Once you've used the one-click you shouldn't need to flash either of the kernels you've mentioned you should technically be able to just flash the CM10 and be good. Although when it comes to flashing the CM10 I suggest you go to the creaters thread or site and follow their exact directions for installing!

I highly recommend you install official cm instead. They are updated and will be more stable.

Rooting with mobile Odin

Root Galaxy Note – Safest Method with no loss of data
(reference to cursed4eva-dev)
Tutorial to Safely Root the Galaxy Note:
This is my preferred method to root the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 and here are the reasons why,
Advantages:
1. SAFE
2. Works with the 4.0.4 update
3. Minimal downloads – 3-10mb max
4. Quick – 2-5 Mins Approx
5. No loss of apps or Data
6. Counter does not increase (can unroot and avail warranty if needed)
7. Can be done without a PC
Disadvantages:
1. MicroSD Card Required
2. Works only with ICS (Android 4.0)
Caution:
For 4.0 only.
Follow all steps properly, do not proceed with rooting if u don't understand even one step.
Proceed at your own risk, i am not responsible for any problems.
Step 1. Download SuperSU.zip and transfer it to the root of your Micro SD card.
Step 2: Press Up Volume + Power + Home and hold till the phone reboots and you see Samsung Galaxy Note displayed on screen, at which point you can let the keys go.
Step 3: Now you should be in Android system recovery, select “apply update from external storage” (as shown in the image to the right) and select SuperSU.zip that we transferred earlier.
Step 4: Once Complete hit “reboot system now”
We have ROOT now, we set out the root the Galaxy Note and have done it
If you just want to run Root apps like Titanium Backup you are done here but if you want to flash custom ROMs, Kernels, Mods, Themes and so on continue…
Step 5:. Get Mobile ODIN Pro from the PlayStore or alternatively Mobile ODIN Lite from XDA.
(Id highly recommend the PRO version if you plan on flashing a lot of custom Roms, Kernels and so on)
Step 6: Download the SpeedMod Kernel and transfer it to the Internal/External Sd.
Step 7: Open Mobile ODIN and get through the initial screens (Grant Access, Let it Downloadany files if needed) and then click Kernel and navigate to wherever you have saved SpeedMod Kernel and select it and hit Flash Firmware.
BAM! We now have FULL ROOT with A SAFE Custom Recovery for the Galaxy Note!!!

2.3.6 to 4.1 , help

Hi,
Ive just bought a used Galaxy Note running Stock 2.3.6 (N7000XXLC1 Kernel an N7000XXLB2 baseband) and want to put the latest jellybean rom on.
Ive read through lots of threads about the brick warning and so on, i just want to know how to go from 2.3.6 and have it rooted and cwm on and the latest 4.1 leak or a modified 4.1
Could somebody please tell me the steps to do it as dont want to brick it and this 2.3.6 is rubbish
Matt

Hello!
I've rooted my Note like this:
#1
Get the original software (like N7000XXLRU - the file is 914Mb and it is a *.md5 file. ) and odin (Odin3 v1.87), install it in odin...how?
Open odin and put the file in PDA.
Option in odin leave alone (Auto Reboot & F. Reset Time; are selected)
Put Note in download mode: Volume Down Key + Home Key + Power Key; then Volume up key to continue
Connect the phone to computer
Odin recognize the phone and you will see it on COM port
Click Start
After several minutes the phone will turn on.
Now you have a original sw on your phone, and believe me this sw is GREAT...but if you want more...

Root you phone
Described in this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360)
I used ''1A.Root + safe kernel + advance recovery''
Just read carefully (will write it down)
Visit this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
And download kernel in zip format according ROM you are having on device (just look for XXLRU-VDI; PhilZ-cwm6 v3.5 with CWM 6.0.1.8)
Copy downloaded file to Ext SD card to root directory (or any folder you make; I have ''A_ROOT'' for this things)
Reboot into recovery (Volume Up Key + Home Button + Power Key)
Select install(update) zip from ext SD card (Install zip >> Choose zip from sdcard; and click on the *.zip file)
select '[your downloaded kerenel].zip' which you have copied to Ext card above
Reboot device
Now you will have Root + safe kernel
And your phone is rooted now. You can have all the programs that work only when your phone is rooted (Titanium Backup, Root Uninstaller, Root Browser Lite, ...)
#3
Your phone is now ready to install all Android Development ROMs
Read each post ''How to flash'' it is easy
For instance I like stock rom and love 4.1.2, so i have sw from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970626
Example:
Save *.zip on your SD/EXT Card (Ultimate N7000 XXLSA JellyBean 4.1.2 v5)
Restart in CWMR (Volume Up Key + Home Button + Power Key)
Be sure you're on SAFE KERNEL, then you can wipe (jes you are - on PhilZ-cwm6)
Full wipe /data/factory reset /cache and dalvik (dalvik is in advanced option)
Flash the ROM (Install zip >> Choose zip from sdcard; and click on the *.zip file)
Wait some minute until your phone boot!
You are done. That's all.
I've never had any problems with any of the ROMs. You can do the #3 1000 times and nothing will go wrong. Just remember to do a back up in CWM, when you have a rom that works great for you and you like. So if anything happens and you phone is stuck in ''samsung'' sing, you can go in CMW and restore it.
I hope it helps and I didn't forget anything.

Thanks so much for posting. I followed all the instructions and it worked fine. I have however gone and installed a 4.0.4 rom after using 4.1 for a bit and finding it too juddery.
Thanks again
Matt

No problem.
You can wait for the official firmware release and then everything will work 100%.
