PS.
When I flashed CWM 11 camera was working but I need to have CWM10 because is based od Android < 4.4

Do you know how to install 4.3 Jellybean original version - preferably with my current CWM bootloader ?
Maybe original version of android - no Cyanogen wil work ...
in 4.3 version of android there is a chance to do that ...

Just flash the stock firmware with odin.
Try THIS SITE and see if your country region is there
If not sammobile.com has a comprehensive list(the download is very slow)

can I put any of those zip files ?

but this will erase my CWM recovery, is it true ?
Is it possible to have CWM recovery with stock Android ?
I downloaded from Sammobile ZIP: I9305XXUEML9_I9305PRTEML1_PRT.zip (this is 4.3 android)
..but for now I have I9305XXUFNJ1 displayed in my phone ... is this OK or I can brick my phone ?
In pull-down menu there are possibilities:
2014-10-01 Poland (T-mobile) 4.3 I9305XXUENH1 I9305TPLENH1
2014-05-01 Poland (T-mobile) 4.3 I9305XXUENC1 I9305TPLENE1

sammobile /firmwares/download/24228/I9305XXUEML9_I9305PRTEML1_PRT/
I don't know if I have "branded" phone ... for Poland there are "Play" "Tmobile" Plus" zip file...
I know that previous owner of phone bought it at "Orange" telecomunication operator. I dont see any operator logo etc on phone ...
Is this relevant which version I will take ?
Maybe just "the newer the better" ?
Odin doesn't works for me on any windows machine that I have. I am struggling with Heimdall software ...
I successfully made this:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.7-i9305.img --no-reboot

I see 4.3 - I9305XXUENC1 / TPLENE1 Poland T-Mobile version from the tsar3000 site?? Anyway the one you downloaded from sammobile will be fine
The branded versions only give you different bloatware. It shouldn't make any difference otherwise(other than slightly older/newer baseband). And yes it will overwrite the recovery, but you can install cwm later.
I'm not sure what the process is exactly with heimdall as I have odin, but I think it is similar

yes, I see it on the list, but when I try to download via "mirror 1 or 2 links" - I am redirected to another list - where there is only 4.4.4 versions
After few hours I have to go to work, so I am going to sleep now, but tomorrow I will flash phone with that version
Did you heard that flashing from 4.4.4 just to 4.3 will brick the phone ? (because of changes in "knox bootloader"??? My coleague says that ...)
and "I have to downgrade to 4.2 and than upgrade to 4.3 ... is it true ?

What is the latest stock version you have had on the phone? If you have never had 4.4.4 stock, then you should be fine. Just always use the 4.3 to go back to stock and you will always have the old bootloader.
Maybe check your bootloader before you do anything

DriveLink needs GoogleApps libraries! (pure CyanogenMod is not enough)
BINGO! After installing GoogleApps.zip (for 4.4.3) DriveLink app started to run - not crashing anymore ...
but the car still not see any phone ... but this is because of android version ..4.4.4
Android have to be in 4.1-4.3 versions.

Originally I was had 4.4.2 version, original samsung, before any changes.
Then I installed ClockworkMode custom recovery ... and next CyanogenMod 11 android clone (based on 4.4.4 android).
Than I downgraded CyanogenMod to 10.1.3 version (based on 4.2.? android), just because I did'nt find any 10.2 Cyanogen (based on 4.3 android).
Next I again installed CyanogenMod 11 (android 4.4.4) ... as I have now.
Recovery is still CLockworkMode (with TouchPhiz) ...nice and functional (with working adb from my Linux).
Oh, I exactly did that what is described on site: https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_i9305
(using CWM as custom recovery)

You can see in download mode. It will say something like "Knox warranty void 0x1" or something similar. This means you have the new bootloader.
But anyway, it sounds like you have found a way for drivelink to work? Try installing a custom JB rom like CM 10.1.3 or Alliance rom and you should have it working

CM10.1.3 - drivelink doesnt work

Yes, I have in download mode message about knox 0x1
Even now, when I have CM10.1.3 installed.
unfortunately over CM 10.1.3 DriveLink is crashing
App starting, then it asks me about "DriveLink account" (WTF?) when I skip all questions - Drive link starting up with beautifull picture an then message appears: that Drive Link has been stopped....
PS. without google apps - it crashes immediately
I will try with 4.3 stock android ...(but now I have to charge batteries because CM has been crashed and discharged me battery almost completly )
PS2. I am installing this DriveLink:
http://www.colmoschinxtreme.com/android/item/drivelink

@marcint43
I noticed on the link you posted that drivelink only works with touchwiz. The stock rom should work fine, but another alternative would be to use a custom touchwiz rom like Alliance Rom. I used this rom a while ago and loved the customization and less bloat than stock(plus all the other advantages of having root access)

I will try that at first
Just flash with adb sideload is possible ? It is downloading now ... but I see that size is about 1GB ... so is there recovery included ?
I dont understand well what is written on page you have written...
BTW. anybody knows how to use heimdall software to flash stock version ?
this have to be like described on: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=698436
?
so: unzip , untar ... and next:
heimdall flash --BOOT boot.img --RECOVERY recovery.img --SYSTEM system.img --CACHE cache.img --HIDDEN hidden.img --RADIO modem.bin --BOOTLOADER sboot.bin --TZSW tz.img
?
(Odin doesn't works for me ... on any computer that I have with windows )

this was stupid sorry
There is special part of installation guide: .... If you don't want to use ROM Customizer to select your options you can reboot into recovery and flash the ROM zip. Default install is Stock Kernel, All Samsung and Google Apps and Stock Theme.
for startup is the best
Next time I will short ROM

If you still have CM installed, download "ROM customizer" from the play store, and follow the steps from post #3 in the alliance rom thread. AFAIK the recovery will stay the same as the one you have already

recovery overwritten ?

...ok, but ...by default ... "ALL" .... without Customizer ... this will overwrite my recovery too ? I will lost my CWM recovery and any other will be installed instead ?

I can't remember whether the recovery was over-written, I don't think so. It would be easy to re-install your favourite recovery anyway......

LG Optimus 2X LGP990 - Update to ICS 4.0.x

Hello all
Im new to the world of LG, already owning Samsungs Galaxy phones, I'm familiar with 'Rooting, Odin, Reset Flash Counts,Roms etc'
So the LG Optimus 2X LGP990 Star I have is Android based and is currently running on:
Ginger Bread V 2.3.4
Baseband 1035.21
Kernel 2.6.32
Build Number GRJ22
LGE Version LGP990-V20I
So then the questions are:
Is there an alternative program to Odin ?
Is there a program similar to Samsung kies ?
Is there a recovery mode / download mode key config ?
Is there a 'firmware site' like 'sammobile' to download firmware from ?
Does ICS 4.0.x exist for this phone, if yes how can I install it?
I've been to the LG software support section and installed the Win Drivers and the support tool and thats about it for support.
It says the phone is at the latest version - V20L
So many thanks for reading and hope fully some one will be able to point me in the right direction.
:good::good:
Root the phone,install Rom Manager,open it and from its menu install Clockworkmod recovery which is the main tool u need for rom flashing.
Theres no ics sadly,we wait for it.
Sent from my LG-P990
you mean alternative for pc suit???
Alternative for LG PC suit is "my phone explorer", Google it. And firm ware is NV flash tool for installation of recovery mode "Do no use any app for installing CWM " you can get this tools by browsing xda in 2x forums.
I can not paste direct links,I am typing this message from my 2x.
And there will be an official update released soon.
Thank you.
Thats great to hear a possible ICS rom, hopefully official.
I'm surprised there wasn't one for this phone before the Samsung Galaxy Range.
Comparing the speed / responsiveness of the LG Optimus phone and the Samsung Galaxy S2 / Note - I'd say the speed of the optimus is far quicker and responsive - it's a nifty little phone :good:
There's another thead in this section on rooting the LGP 990 for the 1st time, just read it and the principles are the same as for the Galaxy S2 or Note.
So basically I use 'super one click 2.3.2' - probably an exe file for the pc?
I have CWM apk app installer I downloaded and kept for my Samsung phones - yes it works ok
But alternatively, I install:
1) Rom manager 1st - which then gives me the option to install CWM from within it
2) Boot into CWM recovery mode from that option in Rom Manager
No odin though, install rom image as a zip file from the ext / int sd card.
I notice there are no 'safe / unstable kernels to flash prior to and post rooting the LGP990?
I presume whatever rom I install, will erase / wipe over the original template already in the phone?
What is the best rom to install on the LGP990 at the minute, or is it worth just waiting for the ICS rom?
Cheers for the help :good:
The main advantage of the O2X as a dev phone, in my opinion, is that it is almost impossible to brick it, with the possible (but I didn't ever encounter it) exception of a failed baseband flash. It is really fool proof to root, no unsafe boot images or bootloaders to flash, simply run any known "hack" and you will end up with root.
There are many ways you can get into the custom ROM game. The easiest one was already mentioned: Root with SuperOneClick => ROM Manager => Flash CWM => boot into recovery from ROM Manager or by turning on the phone with power and Volume Down button pressed.
An alternative would be to use the script provided by Paul O Brien over at modaco which gives you a CWM installation without rooting or using ROM Manager.
Stock ROMs are available as .kdz files and pre rooted CWM images here in the dev section, enabling you to use NVFlash/Smartflash with the former and CWM with the latter to return your phone to a stock state. I suggest staying away from flashing basebands unless you have a specific problem you aim to solve with another baseband, our CM maintainer hasn't changed his baseband ever, and he (like me) uses the oldest version known to this forum. Whenever you flash a ROM, make sure your Baseband matches your RIL file, which can be done easily with the GetRIL app from the Play Store.
ICS ROMs to date are sort of hit and miss. I used owains builds, Nova HD and currently Paranoid Android. If you are fine with a glitchy Phone that might simply restart itself randomly once you open any app from time to time, can't record/play hardware accelerated video due to missing drivers or slow down if you haven't rebooted for a while you can flash away.
If you're comfortable with the Gingerbread builds atm I suggest flashing the latest CM7 RC or Nightly and wait for the official ICS update which will hopefully arrive in the next 2-3 months.

that's nifty nice quick cool understandable first info. thanks a lot. (I knew that already by searching way a lot more topics than it could be, but your summary is cool. Thanks again.)

As for installing ROMs onto your device, that's easy. Custom ROMs is harder because most likely there are no custom ROMs for your device, and lastly that is not a error, when you root a Samsung device, it makes it so you can't update it on stock firmware so it won't mess the phone up if something goes wrong.

no you are not able to install another phones custom rom, it would brick your device. there are special moments where two phones are very similar so they are able to flash each others rom but with your phone i dont see a brother. as for the error you would just need to unroot since you are rooted on stock you would have to look that up. but i see that your phone is still at android 4.0 there is no updates right now.

well if its offical one it probably patched root. you might not have root now and if there is no root method for that version then you would have to downgrade witch i doubt there is one. otherwise you are stuck now.

GT-S6012 Booot loop..
Hi. I got a Samsung GT-S6012 that keeps rebooting the Samsung logo and doesn't start. At first I got the phone stuck on the very first logo with Samsung model name. So I did some search. Downloaded Odin and latest 4.1.2 official firmware for that phone model flashed it. Everything worked for a few days but then the battery ran out and phone shut down and when I turned it on again it got stuck on the very first logo and nothing. Then I flashed the same firmware again to get it running and when I checked it the flashing didn't really fully wiped the internal memory cause the data in it was still in tact. So I thought I need full wipe to fix the phone. So installed custom recovery, rooted it and flashed CM 10.1 on it. It was running very smooth everything seemed okay but I wanted the stock rom. So I went to recovery wiped whatever was possible and flashed the stock firmware in download mode again. And now I got stuck on the second Samsung logo and it keeps rebooting it self. I recognize that I cannot wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache in now stock recovery cause it gives me android logo within it a red flag. The wipe cache supposed to fix boot loop problem but it's not an option for me anymore. All I can do now is just enter Download mode. I'm downloading 4.0.4 firmware and gonna try to flash that one see if it works but I doubt. Can anyone suggest me a way to fix it? Please I'm really desperate.

how to root i896

hey guys just grabbed this samsung galaxy s captivate from a friend whos dad found in las vegas sooo i guess its mine now, i have no plan on using it as my phone just for developement but i see that this is the rogers version (i896 while the at&t is the i897) and the forum only has it for the at&t version so im guessing they can use same root methods and use same roms correct? i see that a 2.3 update rolled out for it via kies but this one is still on 2.1 and i saw you can only root it on 2.1 and 2.2 so im staying here for now, i was guessing that superoneclick or gingerbreak could root this phone so ill try them both. one last question is there a better version of touchwiz ported to it? like galaxy s2-s3 look and feel? if now i was hopeing to get CM 10.1 on it, ccan somone point me in the right direction please?
Edit: i rooted it with z4root and was successful, i tried to get CWM on it but it seems that Rom manager dosent support andrid 2.1, and if i do get rom manager on here is there one for my i896? or do i just use the at&t cwm?

Yes, same device, different branding, better modem/radio. You can flash anything found here, and some from the Galaxy S i9000 section. As for rooting:
1. Grab a kernel for your current ROM version. I think the latest Rogers ROM is KH2, but you'll have to check on that. If you're not on it yet, grab this http://hotfile.com/dl/130585492/8ca639c/SGH-I896_RWC_I896UXKH2.rar.html (pass:sampro.pl), and flash it through Odin(I'm not sure if its included. If its not, google for it. Odin 1.83 or 1.85)
2. Flash it through Odin
3. Reboot into recovery, flash http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
4. You now have root. Mod all you want, and proceed to flash yourself to JB 4.3, or any other version you want

This method works for any and everything. Once you installed it, you can downgrade to Bootloader-less Froyo and Eclair ROM with no issue

I'll do this after school, and so I don't understand this fryo and eclair boot loader thing. Also can you show me the stable cm10.1/10.2 ROM please? I looked on cm and it was messed up for some reason
Careful with flashing ROMs with bootloaders!
Bad flash may brick your phone with no DIY solution.
- Update to 2.3.3 via Kies (install correct Samsung drivers first, follow the instructions)
- Reboot to make sure all is OK
- Go to Download mode, Flash Corn kernel to get CWM (find it in attached guide, read carefully and install correct drivers)
- Reboot to make sure all is OK
- Download CM10.1.2 Stable + Gapps, copy to your Internal storage (not SD card)
- In Recovery, do Factory Reset, Clear cache, Clear Dalvik
- Flash CM10.1.2. stable + Gapps (follow the instructions in the guide, no root needed to flash custom ROM)
- Enjoy rooted Android 4.2.2

Best use Windows 7 computer, Apple users report issues.

thanks for this! going to update it to gingerbread when I get home, I see that I have to flash a kernel in order to get root and CWM, this would have to be my first time so I hope I don't screw up xD I still don't quite know what kernels are even though I have been rooting/flashing for a long time. I have Hard bricked soooo many of my Samsung devices, like 2 or 3 and I wanted to cry when I bought my GS2 xD.
The good news is that Captivate is hard to brick. The only critical part is bootloaders update. Leave this task to Kies, millions of phones got updated this way (including mine). Yes, there are reports for bricked Captivate after Kies, but hope everything will go smoothly. Just follow Samsung's update instructions. Google what Kies version is recommended for Captivate update (i don't remember, sorry). To update to latest stable CyanogenMod read the guide and follow the instructions closely. You'll find inside the links to one-click Corn kernel update. Careful with Heimdall drivers, they are for a specific USB port (it is explained in the guide). Again, no root is needed for upgrade process, only CWM. CyanogenMod comes rooted. Good luck!

It's a hardware modification. No use to do it now on a 3y old phone. Just update your phone to a stable Android 4.2.2 build and go light on apps and data. Don't expect much from a single core CPU and limited RAM phone. Nobody ever expected that Captivate Android development will go so far. Use what you got and upgrade the phone when you need more muscle.

Yay it worked thank you so much I'm enjoying every bit of it, one last question though xD I noticed this even without it being rooted and its doing it now, the WiFi signal on the status bar is always on the bottom two signals, this doesn't happen with my tablets, I don't see it taking a bit for stuff to load.

Different levels for each indication bar, probably. Is the WIFI working correctly? If yes, then nothing to fix here.

N7000 Rooted, But No Firmware - Whoops!

Hi all,
First post, so please go easy on me!
Earlier today I rooted my N7000 Glaxy Note, UK Version (Unlocked). However, I have since managed to clear the Firmware (ICS), and now I have nothing on there. The phone itself will not boot, and presents me with PhilZ Touch 3 CWM Base Version: 6.0.2.7
I was trying to get Kitkat on the device, however now I have nothing on there and every time I try and install the rom I downloaded (CM-11), I get an Error 7 within the recovery, so it aborts the installation.
Can anyone direct me at all? When looking for stock Android, I cannot find any for my exact device, etc. They are all different carriers / mobile networks.
To be clear, my device is as follows:
Galaxy Note N7000
Unlocked UK Model
XXLSA
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. To flash KitKat you'll need a different recovery so flash the latest raw kernel.
2. You can flash any N7000 stock ROM , it doesn't have to be the same as your old one.

Many thanks for the response.
I am not completely clued up to this, however I do have a very good understanding of computing, etc. Could you please explain what you mean by "a different recovery, so flash the latest raw kernel"? I wouldn't know where to locate one of these!
Also, is this to say I can flash any stock ROM I find, despite it not being specifically for a UK network, etc?

Well, since recovery is build into the kernel. Any kernel with updated recovery will be fine.

Flash this using this with the help of this
Then use this to get rid of yellow traingle
EDIT: are you sure you are rooted?
what steps did you follow?
Probably failing because no USB debugging?
Does it show 'added' in ODIN?
Try flashing one of the zip philz.
Download the one for your baseband
@LondonT download raw kernel R4 or R5 (search for it) and put it on your external sd card. Flash from philz recovery, reboot recovery and then flash KK rom from your external card along with gapps.

Help with changing from 4.1.2 to 4.4.3

Hello, I've just bought i9305 with Android 4.1.2 (so no KNOX, no root) and I'd like to get newest custom KK.
I've found this link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/ref-understanding-basics-rooting-s3-gt-t2362743 but I wanna know if I understand correctly:
1. I do backup, especially /efs through recovery.
2. I do root so:
"a) Download the Latest Odin
b) Download recovery of your choice (I choose CWM) and flash it via Odin" - my question is where I can find the latest CWM for i9305?
3. Now I just flash any 4.4.3 soft? No need to flash any older rom before?
That might be a bit newbie questions... I knew everything on my old phone (SGS1) but now I don't remember these steps cuz I did that long time ago on i9000.
Greets and waiting for help

I had a Galaxy S i9000, a Galaxy S2 i9100 and now I have the S3 LTE and the steps where all the same.
I rooted mine with an app called 'framaroot' then installed mobile odin, flashed a CWM recovery, downloaded the rom I wanted or needed and the gapps for aosp roms... and bam... I was on 4.4.2 kitkat!
Tried many aosp roms but all of them had problems with music. It's stuttering. So I got back to alliance 4.3 and wait for (hopefully soon) 4.4.2 official!
Maybe you could get help on YouTube. There are many tutorials and instructions.
