ClockworkMod Recovery for Galaxy S (BETA BEWARE)

WARNING: From koush' IRC channel it seems this version may be (permanently?) bricking devices.
At the time of this writing only a single working flash has been reported, and several (full?) bricks.
--Chainfire
I just finished my recovery for Galaxy S. This requires some testing before I do the final release.

Please join #koush on irc.freenode.net to report bugs. I can't check all 4 XDA threads

Awesome . I might just buy this phone now !!

Will this work on the vibrant too?

is it just me or does Odin3 not have a PDU button? better instructions please!?!?!

what exactly does this do?

I think he means press the "PDA" button for step 3. Becuase I have Odin3 version 1.0 and there is no "PDU" button.

Neither does 3.95

I am not so new, send me the link and I will post it.

How about a quick rundown of what this and app and Odin do? I can guess, but a little more info would help us new comers.
Thanks!

Successfully flashed. nandroid backup just finished, got an error on the MD5 generation. Also the settings for the orientation sensor seems to have reset so the phone is always trying to switch to landscape.

Opiate, not sure if this helps or not. I did a google search for
Odin_Multi_Downloader_v3.98.exe (if this is not the same as odin3 let me know and i will delete this post to not confuse others)
and i found a megaupload of the file. dont know if it's the newest or not but figured you could start there.

DON'T USE THAT ODIN PACKAGE. It is for older Samsung devices. It must say Odin3 v1.0 and not 3.98 or 4.30.

Here is Odin3 v1.0 for everyone

JJ/JK/JM

So, what's the basic difference between the different "branches" of the firmwares?
I believe consensus was that the JM firmware is some sort of in-development or test version, any idea what the difference is between JJ & JK? I know there's been official updates for the JJ series pushed out via Kies, is the same true of JK?
Since there doesn't seem to be any obvious difference between them, is there a good reason to stick with one versus another for the sake of legitimacy?
Also - does anyone want me to throw together a super-root UPDATE.ZIP for the tab? (Shell root, busybox & superuser) or are people happy with z4 & super one-click?

JJ and JK means Oct 2010 and Nov 2010
nothing special
samfirmware code has it
that means JK is newer since it released on November
tha latest should be JL
there shouldnt be any JM
thats why maybe people here call it some sort of test firmware
the area region is the 2 digit before JJ/JK
like DX for SE Asia, or XX/XW for europe
as the last number is the version, which generally means bigger is newer
official always out later then the unofficial ones, so in my logic, the JJ update via Kies is the most stable that samsung tested
it doesnt mean the JK ones is not stable, maybe they havent got the time to test it yet

JM are typically test firmwares.

I got a JK5 through Kies last week up from European XXJI.

Yep, that's the official update indeed. See links below to learn how to use the CheckFUS app (instead of Kies) to determine firmware availability:

According to the Kies registry entry, my product code is GT-P1000CWACPW.
The CWA part seems to be a complete orphan, most of the codes seem to be HK? of some form. Guess I should've left it on the stock JJ3 firmware.
I've grabbed one of the 550Mb CPW firmware files, decrypted it, unzipped it and flashed it as the PDA file in Odin (no PIT, no repartition).
It's flashed the kernel, cache partition, factoryfs partition (/data and /system etc. I assume), got to the "hidden" partition and hung. Still trying to work out what's going on. Looks like people are having no success with this partition (which by the sounds of it has the full version of NovaHD in it, so not hugely useful).
Once extracted the .tar was over 600MB, took a long time to flash it all! Probably not wisest to flash it in a virtual machine running on a hackintosh.
Edit: Just used Heimdall to flash the individual components using the standard P1.PIT, I left out the "hidden" partition, will just mount it as a loop device and manually copy the data into the main FS.
Edit2: Yup, the hidden.rfs file just has the full copy of NovaHD in it, the demo Movies (trailers) and a DioDict.apk.

can anybody use that nova apk? if the answer is yes, can you upload it? ^^

My understanding (and I'm a n00b so don't flame!) Is that CSC is the carrier customization portion of the firmware, and that CPW stands for Car Phone Warehouse...
According to FUS I'm on the latest stock UK firmware...

Replacing uninstalled bloat APKs

In the event I want to do a system restore, I would, at this point, need to push back the APKs back to their applicable place.
Where exactly would that be?
Would the command just be adb push or adb copy blah.apk /path/to?
I'd like to have this as a thread for those looking for the same info, at least until an SBF is released.

I'm releasing a one-click unroot that restores all original files today. Standby.

That would be awesome. I'm having trouble restoring Backup assistant 2.3.4, Backup assistant client 1.0 and Guided Tours 2.3.4.
Titanium just hangs indefinitely...

Sweet.

Titanium Backup can't restore applications that don't contain a classes.dex, which is most of the /system/app/ folder. That's why I recommend my bloat removal script instead.

Wonderful... And I uninstalled it after I backed it up.

Pretty much there... still cleaning up some stuff...

I guess I could support /sdcard-ext, but is it really a problem to copy to internal?

Okay, first version of this tool, be kind and let me know if there are any problems with it.
Also: NO GUARANTEES. If it does something that breaks your phone, I am not liable. Use at your own risk. Etc., etc.

First of all Thank you a lot for writing this tool, I hope this can fix my problems. But I am currently having an issue where i get this message ERROR: /sdcard/d3unroot/ backup doesn't exist or is incomplete! I downloaded the folder system/apps folder that it told me to and extracted it into sdcard/d3unroot and mad sure it was on charge only, But I still get this error. any help would be greatly appreciated

Fascinating, I'm getting the same error. I assume we extract the file into d3unroot?

Do you have a linux version?

He already posted it on the 1st page.

A lot of people are having a problem with this depending on the version of busybox installed, so I'm releasing a new version tomorrow that should address these issues. Hang tight, folks.

I ran your Root Tool's 5 times and it didn't work once. (trying to restore system apps)
I tried every different way of having the original system/app files on my SD Card/Internal Storage. Help please, or include better instructions

please help,green line on the screen

hi,
last night i connect my ds7 to the computer and in the internal memory was a file named 'driver.rar' i deleted the file and disconnect the device.
since i disconnect,there is a green line in the screen.i reboot the device,formate,factory reset..nothing..still a green line
i dont think is a hardware problem
i need your help

Need more info. What ROM are you on? Have you done a factory reset?

yes i did
nd im on 3.2

Flash a custom ROM, if it doesn't help, then you have a bad display.

are you sure?everything started since i deleted the driver.rar from the internal sdcard

It's a concidence, android cant even read rar files without downloaded apps.
You can make a blank file named driver.rar and it cant tell the difference

I dont want to install custom rom
can i reinstall 3.2?
How can i be sure that is a bad display?

i think you dont understand me.
i removed "drivers.rar" from the root dir
i searched how can i root my device and i found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411193
and in step 6:he ask me to copy the drivers.rar but i remove it and since i removed i have a green line...

Step #6 asks to copy Drivers.zip not Drivers.rar, there is a difference. Like TheManii states, a DS7 can't read a "rar" file, only a special app made for that purpose can.
I don't have any "rar" files on my DS7 but do have such files on my PC.
Drivers.zip is a folder that comes with a new DS7 although there a few that claim that it didn't.

Its a coincidence. Trust us.
You can tell if its a bad display if by after a factory reset you still see it or if you install a custom ROM and still see it.
If you aren't going to listen to us, when three people have answered your question, why are you here?:highfive:

i cant install custom rom cuz i do not have the "driver" in step 6
factory reset didnt work
please help...
by the way
just now i understand that i did factory data reset and not factory reset

update
i install cm9 rom and still have a green line on the screen
even in the recovery..
what can i do?
why the line comes?

Me176CX Update Problems

Hello everybody,
first of all, I would like to apologize for my English. The Google translator helps me to explain my concern to you.
I know that the life of this tablet is actually long gone, but I would still like to revive it. I don't want to buy a new tablet while it is still working. It should only be used for watching movies and surfing the Internet a little.
I bought the tablet with Android 4.4 back then. During the last update to Android 5.0 it was bricked. A few months later I got it working again thanks to some instructions here. However, I could no longer install an update. At some point it disappeared in the box.
I found it again a few days ago. I tried to install the updates with various instructions so that I can install LineAgeOS 16.0 later. Unfortunately, the same error message keeps coming up when I try to install an update. I do not know how to continue. Maybe someone of you can help me.
I have already tried the following instructions:
1st Link
2nd Link
I wanted to try these instructions, but unfortunately could not find the Intel PhoneFlashTool:
3rd Link
That is the error message I always get.

Have you tried flashing https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/ME176C/UL-K013-WW-12.10.1.36_KK-user.zip (note: I assume that you are still on Android 4.4)

Hello and thank you for your reply.
It is a bit difficult for me to explain my individual steps because my English is not very good and the google translator sometimes spits out strange cryptic blocks of words.
Yes, i tried this File too. But after flashing this, i get into a Bootloop.
if the tablet does not start and I try to flash this file, I get a bootloop. I also tried to install this File when UL-K013-WW-3.2.23.182-user.zip is installed and started successfully. But even then I get a bootloop.
the only two versions that I can flash that also start without a bootloop are UL-K013-WW-3.2.23.182-user.zip and UL-K013-CN-3.2.23.182-user.zip. But with both versions I cannot install updates. After flashing the version cn, I saw that this is the version for China.
Yes, i am on Android 4.4.2
Is the Error "Unable to find Partition size for '/FWUP'" normal?

Hello, sorry for necro, but im reviving this tablet aswell, i have the same problem as you, able to install only the one specified firmware and nothing else.
Could you let me know, if you have figured out something?
Thanks!
