Roms - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

seeing as megaupload is down can someone please create a mirror for some of the roms

Well I was thinking of making a new ROM "bible" since the old one is not being updated and would have put mirrors...
But i got my phone taken away >.<
For now just ask in the ROM's thread...
Or just ask here what ROM you want specifically

hey frankdrey, ive thought about this too. if you do let me know and i can help out with testing and such

well i'l probably become a dev soon, just made my first rom with a sense launcher, hope it works

Mega ROM for Jade ...?

Hey guys,
althought pretty busy these days, I downloaded all neccessary equipment and read a lot in order to cook my own ROM with all the leaked Mega goodies (like the new TouchFLO). But it seems its not as easy as I thought (click-click-flash?) and requires a lot of work and knowledge.
But since the Mega is also QVGA and pretty similar to our Jade, it couldnt be that hard, right?
So I ask the chefs in this Jade forum, is someone already porting and cooking? It seems that more an more Jade-chefs leave us here alone..
maybe wait tommoy ack from his holiday
I've seen the Mega pack, too and thought about cooking a ROM, but i got absolutely no knowlegde about how to cook ROMs......
I've discovered a really good german instruction today and maybe i'll try as soon as i got time to do it.
I'd really appreciate if u'd accomplish cooking a ROM with the new Mega pack and would like to be beta tester or give u some help if possible!
Cheers

Update Themes for new roms?

Why can't the creators update the roms like ratcom does after each rom release? Haven't got any answers when I write in the theme threads
that's why I started a new.
I have been waiting about a week for black-sence in Modacos 2.9 version.
Don't take me wrong, I am very greatfull for to all the developers hardwork.
Even more gratefull if I could get Black-Sence in 2.9

i don't actually know because i am not them, but i would suggest that they can, but due to the fact that they have a life besides hacking roms it will take a few days... actually some of the themes are ported already, so i guess you will have to wait till it is done...
I am only trying for a boost on the update with this thread and maybe some replies from the developers
Just wait and be patient for the developers.
And if you cant wait then create your own theme and update it ???
No patience or time to learn atm. Otherwise I would have

The forum is about sharing their work and not working for us. Obviously if the chefs are using rom ver 2.8, you cant expect them to work on a release for 2.9 just for you.
Get my point?

Ofcourse I thought they are using 2.9? And as I said, or meant. No hard feelings just wanned to get theirs attention when I didn't get any answers earlier.
Nevermind, just delete this thread. sorry

n00b going to flash his first ROM...which ROM kicks the most @ss? thx

Hi all,
I have my N1 since this week and would like to flash a custom rom...any tips on which ROM to choose?
Since I'm just getting into this (coming from a Tytn2/Kaiser) I don't want to cook my own ROM just yet.
Thanks and kind regards,
Jochen
Well I do really think it comes down to personal preferences.
I've tried CM (since the betas) and MCR back and forth, both are excellent ROMs so I can recommend both of them.
I know people are happy with Enomther's as well so it's probably good
I'd recommend you look through the changelogs or specifications for the ROM's and decide that way or just try them all It's as easy as eating pie to swap between ROMs if you use nandroid to store them
First tip would be to post in the correct section of the forum.
If you want you could test drive all the ROMS and then settle on one and install all your apps.
Once you unlock/root you can change bits and pieces whenever you want anyway.

[Q] dump rom from phone

Hi All,
Please would someone be so kind and explain how to make a rom from a phone using anything would be good, but preferably flashable via odin
What i am asking is how to dump an I9000 rom so that I can flash it via Odin on a I900 once again, not porting just a basic dump.
i'm interrested too
Really dude? Read stickies, search, read up a ton before posting stupidly pointless threads like this. Sorry, but this is a busy forum and people like you asking baseless questions aren't a part of it.
In case you didn't know, porting ROMs from devices is extremely hard. There is progress going on porting HTC Sense from the Desire HD but it's extremely time consuming and difficult even for very experienced devs.

Did you do a search? well there is FA info at all on this topic, and I am not looking at porting a rom, i simply want to dump my rom as is as a image.
dd i guess could work, but how the hell do make it odin friendly?

Which am I, the one asking the baseless questions or the one telling others not to? =P
Dumping a ROM is definitely different than porting from another device, but the way your question stated you wanted to take a dump from another phone (Desire for example) and then magically stick that in Odin and make it work or something. Sorry for misunderstanding.
I take it you want to dump your current ROM and then publish for others to use, like Nandroid backup style? I guess that might be interesting although I'll personally stick to cooked ROMs like Docs that are ready to flash with all optimizations and changes applied at the get-go.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he will eat for life. Cryptic as it may be, but I guess the OP is interested in trying to make a backup.
I know samfirmware has most of the firmwares, but it would be nice to know how to create a flashable rom.
Some of us really would like to know how to do this. Samfirmwares does not have all the roms. They do not have the ntt docomo rom for japan on their site. The phone was just released the 28 October with the official 2.2 froyo rom on it. I would like to walk in the store dump the rom from their demo phone to sd card. Put the rom on my phone. I really want get my sp mode working. I have rom mananger. Does rom manager do rom dumps with the back rom option.
I agree this seems like a good idea, my bad for not understanding the Cyrptic OP lol
I don't think we get nandroid backups right now. I don't think anyone has taken a dump from a running SGS and turned it into a flashable ROM. I just know that Doc, Tatyuma and others have taken Samsung's packages and cooked them into their nice flashable zips.

CM7 (Android 2.3.7) for N7000 must of existed, at one point?

Hi All,
In my quest to try find a pure clean Gingerbread rom for the N7000 for old times, and nostalgic memories (from other devices).
After hearing there was no source, and it never happened... I've just noticed this post from another website, that claims it did... right up to Android 2.3.7 (the last of the Gingerbread) as all the bloated roms I see on GB are based on 2.36.
It appears the rom came from our very own, this site.... XDA. http://www.landofdroid.com/2011/samsung-galaxy-note-gets-unofficial-cm7-treatment/
Does anyone know anything about it, where I can find it...?? If you have it, can you please upload it.... And why is it so elusive?? As I thought GB was safe from the eMMC, and that it was only stock or leaked ICS kernels that were unsafe??
Thanks, Lister
Hi All,
Anyone know anything about this rom? Apparently it originated and was born from XDA forums...
If anyone has this file, would be very very interested, thank you... Lister
Same here but it seems it has disappeared...
well if someone have a backup please upload it, this is a legendary rom
Hi All,
Ok guys, a bit more research on the CM7 rom that was built for the Note (N7000) via someone here on the XDA forums....
I have since found these websites, giving more info about it...
http://mobiputing.com/2011/11/unofficial-cyanogenmod-7-build-for-the-samsung-galaxy-note/
and,
http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...ml+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=uk&client=firefox-a
And the file we are all seeking is called.... update-cm-7.1.0-GalaxyNote-kang-signed.zip
If anyone has the above file, please could they let us know... I can't believe this rom, its thread, and the many users who may of flashed it back then, have all disappeared...???
Or was this the reason behind the eMMC BrickBug? (even though GB was supposedly safe?)
Thanks guys, hopefully we can find it...
Cheers, Lister
best way is to PM the rom creator netchip for the file.
could you do that i am too interested!
Hi ASMI1,
Aye, that would be good... but looks like it might be "easier said, than done" as it would appear NetChip has been banned from this community...
So not sure how else we can find out any more about this rom, I would of thought someone who had this phone in the earlier days might of had a backup of this rom... we just gotta hope someone who has, read this post....
Thanks, Lister

yeah that's our only hope for now
even google show no trace for this rom
Hi ASMI1,
Trust me, I've totally exhausted the Google searches.... Tried every kind of possible variant to try and find it....
N7000, i9220, i-717, Galaxy Note....
Thats how I got and found as much as I have so far... I just can't believe who ever uploaded it, only loaded it ONE SOURCE ever.... As that source is now dead, the link just takes you to spam / malware post...
Can't believe the thousand's who have this phone, neither remember it, backed it up, or are showing no interest in recovering it....
Sure, its a dated firmware, and with Lollipop just round the corner... But surely, everyone wants to step back in time once in a while, for old times sake... CM7 was a fine rom, even has powerful stuff in it, thats missing from all future builds...
Hopefully someone might come to our aide soon...
Cheers, Lister

Whats up with GB? Didnt the phone come with stock install
Hi @drulo222,
Yes, it did... But it only got as far as GB (Android 2.3.5 or 2.3.6) and was some 600 - 900Mb download, full of bloatware, lacked features other than TW stuff... and was badly optimized....
At least with the usual CM stuff, CM7 was only around 100Mb rom for this device, was running the latest and last GB build (Android 2.3.7) and so it would be nice just to see a polished version on our Device.... Esp for all those who grew up with CM7 on other devices (ie: my original ZTE Blade). It would appear at least a build was made for this device, but was only ever uploaded to one filehost, which now gives you MALWARE when visited... And all the users of N7000 appear to have never seen it...?????

I thought cm is open source project; each one being incremented. I'm not sure if any cm would 100% percent be build for any particular version, yet this type of phone? Take the builds and see that there is always a newer one... but sure, that doesn't guaranty compatibility. I am saying cm7 probably isnt as expected from people... especially on more sophisticated phones. Anyway. id install one for test purposes.
Hi All,
Whilst still on the ever (elusive) hunt for CM7 for our Note/N7000.... I've uncovered more evidence that it did at one time exist...
https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/m1ai2/cm7_makes_it_to_galaxy_note/
So please, please, can you cheack your HDDs, or ya SD Cards, those who may of played around with it in the past (before I got my phone) and if ya have a copy of it, please re-upload it...
Many thanks, Lister
The more I see on this, the more I am starting to think this is bullsh*t.... and that no one here ever did manage to get CM7 working on the trusty Note!!!
Lack of posts, refences leads me to think we have more chances of finding Elvis alive than this elusive CM7 rom???
http://www.landofdroid.com/2011/samsung-galaxy-note-gets-unofficial-cm7-treatment/
Hi All,
Finally, I have found the thread where CM7 once existed for our Note. Even if NO ONE is aware it ever existed....
It appears it was almost complete, but then got pulled because it did not boot.... / Much like the build of CM7 on the i9100... that never booted on it's own, yet got published all over the place, inc the official CyanogenMod website back in the day... I managed to get the CM7 for i9100 with a custom Gingerbread kernel.
I feel that's all that's needed for the Note/N7000....
If anyone has this ROM, I don't care how complete/dangerous they think it is... 99% of failed flashes are fixed by official firmware and Odin. Grew up on CM7 with my first Smartphone, would be cool to see it on the Note.
I know we have CM14.1 these days, which is even more awesome that the old Note is still living strong even today... But would also be cool to see the old times too on it... lol
/ someone must have the rom? lol
Cheers, Lister
