This noob successfully rooted his Vibrant thanks to some key members here. Now I need your help for another matter. I installed Cyanogenmod 7 nightly and it worked! I did it this way: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/cyanogenmod-7-cm7-samsung-galaxy-s/
The only problems that I'm having now is:
1)ClockWorkModRecovery does not want to reboot so I can't install anything else to it, which brings me to
2)I can't install Google apps like the Market. I went through this procedure:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHgZNnHdrSA and it only took me so far. It came to the home screen and it said that the widget had a problem loading. I couldn't get it to reboot and install after that. Please help - once again.
3)Should I flash another base band version? I know you guys were telling me to get the UGKG3
Latest info on the phone:
Android version: 2.3.7
Baseband version: I9000XXJVK
Kernel version: 2.6.35.14-g7a2264a [email protected]#1
Mod version: Cyanogenmod-7-11162011-NIGHTLY-Galaxy S
Build number: GWK74
Please and thank you guys.
Update:
So I switched to the Stable version. I'm not sure if this was the right move, but help me out here. the only thing that's changed is:
Kernel version: 2.6.35.12-gdf10700 [email protected] #1
mod version: Cyanogenmod-7.1.0-Galaxy S
The only problem now is that the market app is there, but whenever I search and am about to download an app it has to force close because of unstable behaviour. So now I can't get any apps even though the market app is there...
So I tried Cyanogenmod 7 and even though it was blazingly fast and fun to play around with, I decided to go back to Stock gingerbread. Why mess with something that ain't broke, right? Regardless, it was a great learning experience and I encourage any wannabe enthusiast to try it out. I found out it wasn't for me and that's ok. Thanks to the guys here for your help. I'll try other things. Later.

Hello --
I have come across an issue that, as far as I have looked, doesn't have a dedicated thread. I've seen a few people with similar issues, but wanted to post a dedicated thread so that all of us can try to get some help. Thanks in advance to those that are willing to help
Down to business...
For the life of me, I cannot get my phone to boot an overclocked ROM. I've been mostly running DC roms, so, naturally, when the the .29 OC'd kernel was released, I flashed it. It threw my phone into a wicked loop where it wouldn't boot past the black-and-silver HTC screen.
Out of pure curiosity to see how an OC ROM would perform, I tried a number of other ROMs that advertised that they were OC'd. Every single one of them puts my phone into the same boot loop.
Does anybody have any ideas as to how I might be able to approach getting this fixed? I am at a total loss. Could it be a possible hardware issue?

I and others have had the same issue. I subscribe to the thread for the kernel in hopes that the issues will be solved.
I also had the same issue,
But then I flashed the recovery image from the darchdroid thread and
it booted right up, I'm wondering if it was an issue with godspeed or something.

Interesting. I think I tried that recovery image yesterday before I flashed and rooted the official 2.1. I wonder if that recovery image will still work...?

I dunno, the penultimate update worked in 1.6.2 (And I was like "HOLY CRAP I HAVE AN OC/AOSP ROM??? DDDDDDDDD"), and then the most recent worked in godspeed. I don't think it's a recovery issue. :/

A while back I rooted my G1 which was running 1.6 and I successfully rooted and installed cyanogenmod. I wasn't impressed with the battery life so I decided to switch roms. I did something wrong and my phone pretty much reverted back to unrooted Android stock 1.0. That was a while back and I have been pretty much hanging with it since. I could do generic things such as send and receive calls, send text messages, play music off sd, etc., but I'm tempted to find a way to root my phone again and with a diff rom. Is there a way to do this with android version 1.0? Can I also do this without a data plan and just wifi?
Here are the specs for my G1 if anything:
Firmware Version: 1.0
Baseband Version: 62.33.20.08H_1.22.12.29
Kernel Version: 2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0 [email protected] #6
Build number: kila-user 1.0 TC4-RC29 115247 ota-rel-keys, release keys
forget it. I got cyanogenmod up and running. Close thread.
Before this is closed, try out the Froyo for Trout rom. Its stable, and faster than CM. Really recommend this.
Anything will be better off than CM (that from my experieces) But the new CM (XDA Mod) is promissing.
@ TheIneffable - I would suggest (if you still wants to use CM) to look at [ROM] NameLessFroyo (CyanogenMod variant) by NLJ or [ROM][2.3.7 GB][18.10.11] BananaBread v1.2 DS +cMTD(Based on CM 7.1) by banana4444.
But if you would like to try other ROM, I suggest [Rom][2.2.2 AOSP] DREAMteam Froyo v1.9 "I'm hungry...." by DreamTeam (AKA:Green ROM Projects) or FroyoMelt (see my sig for link) also by DreamTeam (with Customization by ldrifta).

If you really need a reliable bluetooth connection the only real option right now is to restock and go with an ICS build. Otherwise make do, and wait until they have it worked out.

i am running alroger's 10.1 4.2.2 on my P1000
i can detect other device
i can pair with other device
and was able to send files to it
how ever
after the device is paired via P1000
the other device will have it on the device list
but when i try to send file from this device to the P1000
it will not detect
and when i am trying to manually connect to P1000
it says "No profile found"

I've never really put the Bluetooth (as in AD2P or Earwigs Headphone(s)). on my GT-P1000 into any real world practice yet. So just how stable it is long-term? I know not. But, I have shot many a File mostly (*.apk's) to, and from my GT-I9000 (Galaxy S), or to my Old Man's GT-P1000 to help get his Device set up. We both have CM10 Mod Builds (i.e. Android 4.1.2), and neither of us have had any of the (Frontal) Camera, or Bluetooth problems that are being discussed here.
Mr. Icarus1314 has but, Two choices here, continue using the "SHINY SHINY" and learn to give up both his Camera, and the Bluetooth. Or revert back to a stable CM10 build. I see no benefit at all in reverting all the way down to Ice Cream Sandwich, and its persistent Navigation Bar.
Unfortunately (for us GT-P1000) Users something got broke between CM10, and the .1, and .2 Builds that remains broken still in CM11 (Android v4.4.3 Codename KitKat), and until these bugs get fixed CM10 (Android v4.1.2 Jelly Bean), is pretty much it for now.
i was trying to get the above mentioned cyanogen mod onto my phone, but got stuck somewhere along the road. Here are some system specs so someone may have a chance to figure out what it looks like right now.
firmware version: 2.3.6
Base band version: I9000XWJW1
Kernel: [email protected] # 2
Build-Number: Gingerbrad.XWJW6
so much to what the phone itself has to say - heres some info taken from CWM Manager
CWM Manager v2.0
Current Kernel: CF-Root 4.4
oh - and i updated the SuperSU which came along.
has anyone an idea how to proceed from there? i read a lot about getting cyanogen mod - including some mentions that the recent 10.1 build to android 4.2.1 (or was it 4.2.2 ?? ) would work on the i9000 - but i cant figure out what to do from here - i´m getting confused about all the build numbers and so on - it would be nice if someone could point out to me which build numbers and updates to look for exactly.
Thx

CM is a custom ROM for your i9000. You can update your phone with this ROM to enjoy the latest Android OS like 4.0 (IceCream Sandwich), 4.1 & 4.2 (Jelly Bean). Samsung has stopped supporting us with any further updates post 2.3.6 which was Gingerbread Value Pack. If you are interested in flashing you stock ROM to taste new OS, follow this links:
1. Install ICS: Installing Ice-cream Sandwich 4.0.4 On Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000
2. Install JB: Installing Jelly Bean 4.1 on Galaxy S GT-I9000
ENJOY
my thx to you - finally - an understandable guide!
jey there - it worked.
now i just need to figure out how to update to a recent build? do you perhaps know where i can manually download the new package? the auto updater doesnt seem to work...
i chose the cm10 fishears build mentioned in the links above.
thx

The recent CM runs on 4.2.2, you can flash the latest nightly from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2039755
thx - that did work as well.
didnt think it was that easy - all the other guides in the net were throwing around lots of strange build numbers and didnt offer much in the way of a guideline - beeing able to rely on you guys for information really saved my day. ^^
Great to hear that you liked the guide and did flash successfully. Hit thanks if that really helped you...
Hey guys and gals,
First off, I want to thank all the devs for their hard work on creating these roms and kernels for such a great phone. I rooted my phone a little less than a year ago following a guide by jocala, and using RebelRom. From my understanding, the phone is still rooted. I have done nothing to change that so I hope it remained rooted.
My question today is in regards to the Baked Black Bean 9 release. Does it follow the same installation as other roms? Such that download the rom, move it to the sdcard, boot into the recovery mode, wipe it all, flash the room then gapps? If so, that is fine, I will just have to reread on how to do all that to the T so the phone does not get bricked, lol. If it is different, can anyone please explain?
My current phone state is :
Model Number: SGH-T679
Android Version: 2.3.6
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-custom [email protected] #7
Build Number: RebelRom 3.0.7 Milestone 2.A
Also, is swype supported by this ROM ? I loved swype but couldn't seem to get it to work with RebelRom.
Thanks in advance for your help with this!

Yes Baked is installed like the others. Nandroid your setup however in case you don't like how things turn out. Wipe everything, flash the ROM and then Gapps. Please keep in mind the latest Baked is funny on first boot. You have to let it sit for around 5 minutes or so. Press the power key once (screen will be black) and then it will reboot in a bit. Everything is easy breezy Japanesey after that.
On Swype I can't tell you, I use Swiftkey.
THANK YOU. Finally something new and it comes preinstalled with a swype or something of that sort. Now I need to figure out how block the used dial attacks said in the wiki. It seems I'm still on uvl1. Nonetheless this forum is fantastic and the people are tremendously helpful. Also I flashed black Bean first top give it a go.
Any other amazing apps to try out?

Well I hate to tell you this but the only way to get the latest baseband is to flash Peach or the latest stock ROM, then revert back to Baked. What I did was nandroid, flash Peach, then restore the nandroid. Do NOT sign in to Google when/if you flash Peach or stock. Otherwise you will lose sync with Google Play which is a mess to re-sync. Just reboot recovery immediately after install.
On apps, there's a lot of good ones but depends on what you're looking for. For basics go with Boat Browser mini for web browsing and Poweramp for music. Use Seeder for a little less lag (Google "entropy" to learn more). And yes, I would pay the $5 for Poweramp especially if you're a music lover. Very worth it. The Google music app is awful IMO. Also make sure you have Google Maps installed so Google Now works properly.
Hope that helps you get started.
