CyanogenMod 6.1
Download
Use ROM-Manager or the teamdouche mirror.
Description
The official release of CyanogenMod for the Legend.
You know the rules. But let me repeat them for your reading pleasure:
Read before you post. Read the whole thread.
Requests for builds, features, fixes or apps to include will be ignored.
Do not ask questions. This is the development board.
Add-Ons
For those who want 2.6.32.17 here's an experimental and unsupported update package:
cm-6.1.0-Legend-kernel-2.6.32.17.zip
Be warned as 2.6.32 is still unstable resulting in the device not suspending correctly when bluetooth is on.
Beer / Coffee / Prescription Drugs:
Thanks Great Developers.
Woow, that's great!
Wow thanx

Thank you very much aliba
Which radio do you recommend for the stable release ?
here we go!
EDIT: I guess "latest" gapps still are 20101020, is that right?
EDIT2: damn it! teamdouche web is down and I couldn't download the ROM... if anyone has any mirror would be great
Cannot download out of this link....The download starts but after a couple of moments it cancelled and the file is incomplete.
Cool, keep up the great work ali ba!
*Scratch that*
Found it
Thx I'll try the 2.32 kernel asap
If only I would have visa ,...
Thank you (I hope you're keeping track of these )
Download doesn't work for me not via ROM manager, not via teamdouch mirror, it is like zip file is damaged.
tried with the new kernel without wiping and..... raging thunder 2 finally runs smooth!!! 3D performances seems way better!
thanks ali ba!
Downloading it through the ROM Manager is definitely not working. I'd prefer to use the ROM Manager for the gapps, but no such luck. Ali Ba's link worked fine, but again, I prefer downloading straight through the ROM Manager.
Took me some tries (well, 8 automatic retries from wget) downloading it from the teamdouche mirror, so I figured I might as well mirror it to help:
http://oysteivi.tihlde.org/update-cm-6.1.0-Legend-signed.zip
(I haven't actually flashed it yet, but the md5sum is correct, so it should be a good copy).
thanks oysteivi
I want to give the new kernel a try and I'm sure all you guy are going to beat me up. But how do I update to the new kernel? Can't find any documentation about it With RomManager like a CR?
I've also set up a mirror:
http://www.alice-dsl.net/simonemartitz/asdf/update-cm-6.1.0-Legend-signed.zip
Don't forget to check the md5sum before installing, it was correct on my machine.
Thanks for the update and mirroring guys!
Trackball wake doesn't work properly with the new kernel. (after 20sec or more it doesn't respond anymore)
I've did some research a while ago (when I was trying to mod it into stock foryo release) and it had something to do with the new kernel I believe. (It works fine when plugged in (USB/charge))
I came across this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703539
But I have no linux knowledge and I'm still learing so edditing a kernel is still a bit too hard for me.
Hopefully this helps
1192+ (2.6.32.17 @768MHz) in Quadrant, nice!
Thanks to your enthusiasm and encouragement I have finally been able to release the first stable version of my rom, Blackhole 1.0 to ROM Manager. This should be able to be flashed over any existing ROM.
This is a JK6 based Froyo ROM.
Instructions:
Open ROM Manager
Click "Download ROM"
Click "Sonofskywalker3"
Click "Blackhole 1.0 for Vibrant"
Choose your boot/shutdown animation (if you pick "No Animations" the startup will be a blank screen, don't panic)
Choose your Calendar
Choose your Desk Clock (experimental)
Choose your extra keyboards (Swype is default because if you remove it, it's a pain to get back)
Choose your Launcher
Choose your Lockscreen (experimental)
Choose your Media Player
Choose your MMS
Choose your Modem
Choose your Theme
Choose addons (Stock apps, Live wallpapers, Widgets, extras)
Select if you want to backup your current rom (YES!!) and/or wipe data (strongly recommended)
Press ok to reboot and install
The initial bootup is usually pretty long, and depending on what you chose there may be a few force closes at your first boot, but you should be fine after that.
Standard disclaimer:
Even if you follow these instructions exactly there is no guarantee that this will work. You may brick your phone. You may get stuck with a force close loop. You may lose some data. You will void your warranty. You may catch on fire. By downloading this rom you agree that none of these things is my fault, and that any damage to personal property, mental sanity, economic stability, financial impunity or anything else that happens as a direct or indirect result of you flashing this ROM cannot be blamed on me. Capish?
Thanks so much to my team of dedicated beta testers:

It's a stock theme unless you pick the Nexus S theme by the3dguy while downloading, so pic's would be underwhelming, but i'll try to get some screenshots of the nearly empty app drawer that you'll have if you pick "No Thanks" on all the optional software.
hmmm, I'm still getting the same error after deleting the data associated with Rom Manager as well.
sounds awesome I'm gonna give it a spin when i get home tonight!
Still can't download. same message "Error occurred while processing this ROM!"
I also got an error "processing" rom for download as well.
Ok guys, sorry for all the problems, There's a massive amount of code to go through, thanks for your patience. I think I may have it sorted now, please try again, making sure you back out of the sonofskywalker3 section and pick it again to refresh the manifest.
Thank you for fast fix! Downloading 21%...
Edit: Errors while downloading rom.
It says in the notification window
"ROM Download Error"
"Stock MMS: http ://ww w.androiddoes.net/sono...(cut )"

Stock and Cyanogenmod MMS links appear broken, I've already reported it to Sonofskywalker. Hang tight guys. This ROM is the quickness once we get these ROM manager issues resolved.
This ROM is extremely fast. Will be using this as a daily driver.
taken care of the mms issue now i believe. sorry guys, thanks for your patience and helping me work out all the kinks.
Sorry I wasn't able to assist last night sonofskywalker, had to do some Christmas shopping, time will be limited this evening as well, but I will try to join in this evening.
1. Can you do an incremental upgrade from 024 to the latest version?
2. Is there a version that does not crash the browser when you enter into downloads?
2. How do you modify the notification ringtone (add some more into that list)?

Come to insanity to ask questions!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the answers ... I can't post in the Insanity ROM thread because I'm a new user, restricted to Q&A.
1. What I meant by incremental upgrade is an upgrade that does not require wipe/factory reset. I know you can use an app to back up your apps and restore them ... I don't want that, I want a procedure for update without reinstalling all the apps, because that does not work perfectly, you still lose settings.
2. I tried to install 026 over 024 without factory reset/wipe and ended up in an infinite reboot cycle. After that, I still did the factory reset and tried 026 just to see if the android browser doesn't crash anymore when I enter into downloads ... sadly, it still crashes, so I just restored my backup of 024.
It's "insanity" that such a basic function stays broken in so many rom revisions IMO. The android browser is the best browser on android overall ... I don't want to use opera, firefox or whatever.
3. I thought I did, but I'll check again. But even if there are more sounds to pick from, that does not help me in adding my own notification ringtone to that list.
To update just download to sd card, go to nitrality/backup & restore/flashcwm and flash, all apps and settings stay, then just repeat procedure and flash packs and nitrality apps as required, job done

To add your own sound just create the file and push to relevant folder

Also re. Browser, google browser really isn't that good, I have heard problems downloading with it, but that isn't unique to insanity, go forth and experiment!
edit.....if you want to get into insanity thread to post all you have to do is notch up 10 posts, then i think you can post anywhere
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Do I need a special upgrade package for that?
Because ... isn't nitrality/backup&restore/flash_cwm_package the same as entering recovery mode and selecting the cm026 zip that got me into an endless reboot?
I searched for the Altair notification and the ringtone folder is:
/system/media/audio/notifications
The actual notification is an ogg file, but I presume mp3's will work.
Hard to believe there's no actual UI option for that ... you can set the ringtone using the music player, but you can't set the notification ringtone that way.
I'm all for light/fast software, but if the software is buggy and it's lacking basic functions that are super simple to add but are ignored because the developer did not do a proper specification, it becomes pointless. Fast and light is nothing without stable and elegant.

I disagree, the google browser is the best, and it's especially fitting for the light and fast concept of insanity rom.
My suggestion is do a fresh install
Procedure
A) download cmxxx
B) download all the cm packs
C)flashezbase 2...allow to reboot
D) flash cmxxx through recovery...allow to reboot
E)go to nitrality/backup restore
F)flash each pack..allow to reboot each time
G)go to nitrality/apps and load apps you want (calender apps important)
H)change dpi in nitrality ui if required
I)explore and play
J) marvel at speed/donate/thank
* when you restore your apps don't restore data, and dont restore any samsung apps, they won't work

well from what i have gathered it doesnt work well at the moment with deodexed roms so my comments still stand.....and i very much doubt any of your problems are due to nitr8 errors, he is a very well respected dev who is very thorough, if you dont like his rom there are plenty more to try out there, as for the mp3 thing, im guessing that you will need to convert to .ogg, but that is just a guess
sometimes you need to do a double flash if it reboots,ie flash through nitrality, if it loops then do 3 button recovery and reflash, but this problem was sorted im sure, but worth a try,
the point of this rom is that it is as small as possible, so adding your own notification tone isnt such a big deal, he wont change things just for one little moan!
Thanks for your help ... maybe I wasn't clear about what I mean by apps ... I don't mean the app packs you download to complete the insanity install, I meant my own installed apps.
You know, installing a new OS version shouldn't mean a re-format of the system partition and a re-install and re-customization of all 3'rd party apps.
That is ABSOLUTE basic functionality, just like changing the notification ringtone. If a ROM doesn't include that, there is something wrong with the concept ... Still, I didn't request anything.
But as it is, it's also not worth donating for insanity rom. I only donate for perfect roms. I donated for darky 9.5 but not for 10.1, that drove me to insanity.
I have to ask you slaphead20, are you associated with nitr8 and insanity?

if you are updating from insanity to insanity all user apps and system settings stay put...as i stated before, i recommended a fresh start to eliminate the bad flash factor, as it seems that you have a some time corrupted or made a mistake... of course you will deny that but it is just part of the process of elimination!
as for am i associated to nitr8, im just a user that helps out a lot on his thread, and anywhere else i can as i have time on my hands due to the fact that i have terminal cancer...so stop being paranoid, im just trying to help you and get to the bottom of your problems and share my experience as i have been with insanity for a long time and know nitr8s work pretty well....in short im just an ordinary joe! also donating is up to the individual, nitr8 has a full time job, all donations go towards future dev and equipment to speed up rom production, and if you start looking around you would appreciate just how much of his own time he puts in FOR FREE....into this forum...as do all devs
Relax, I am not paranoid and I don't suspect you of anything ... LOL, what would I suspect you of? Liking specific ROM's is not a crime (or maybe on XDA it is, I have to check the FAQ).
I just went to the insanity ROM thread and saw you help a lot of people there, and thought maybe you're associated with the project. Which you should think about IMO, if you do it anyway and plan to do it in the future.
I'll try and update from 024 to 027 ... maybe it was a bad flash before, you never know. I still have the 024 backup so there's nothing to lose.
And about donation: if commercial developers only get money for finished ready-to-use software, why should open source developers get money for less? That would just make them less than they have to be.
PS: Good luck with your health. My mother had a breast cancer scare 5 years ago ....

well im involved in as much as when trojan went on hols i stepped in to cover him and try and turn the thread into a less hostile place where everyone helps, and i did a little bit of beta testing so what i do i do with nitr8s bllessing, but right now with going through chemo i have stepped back a bit and just help out, thankyou for kind wishes edit....only 3 more posts and you can post on insanity, and you have your 1st thanks now
like it ^^
Thanks for thanks!
In process of flashing 028 over 024 .... and it's the same, endless reboot, restoring the backup.
When the browser bug is solved, I'll re-format and flash a new version (if I don't try darky 10.2 in the mean time) ...

did you do a fresh install as I suggested? I always do factory reset before and and after the ezbase install and never have problems, and the browser bug as you know is not a problem with insanity, but a conflict between the browser and deodexed roms. All the best

No, there's nothing in the changelog that would deserve the effort to wipe/reinstall.
Yes I know the browser situation, but I think there are fixes for the browser already .... I don't know if they're for cyanogen though.
On a whim I tried darky 10.2 and sadly it has bugs too:
- twlauncher hangs when you try to save the settings and restart it
- the browser sometimes just shows a blank white page instead of the loaded webpage.
What's funny is this - when you press windows you see the miniature of the actual webpage, it isn't blank, so the page is loaded, the browser just doesn't want to show it.
ROOT
DO IT YOURSELF
FOLLOW THIS VIDEO TUTORIAL by wagstuff13
Wanna make your own rooted software? It's quite simple, due to navossoc! Thanks for this guide and the tool.
[TOOL] Lg Extract Tool
Follow the guide, and first extract the kdz file into a cab file. Extract this cab file, then you ll get a v00y.wbd file and a LGP970.dll. 00 represents your SW version, e.g. 10 or 20 and y stands for a letter like B,N,...
So you e.g. get a file called v20N.wdb file.
Then again open the programm in cmd and extract the wdb file (see in the link above). Be sure it is in the same folder as the lgextract.exe file, or add the patch of the file. Copying it to the same folder is the easier solution
Now you ll get a new folder and in it a few bin files and one fls file.
First cd ti the new bin folder.
You need to add up all the files with this command:
copy /b "LGP970_AP
[*].bin" "LGP970_AP.bin"
Now you have a flashable bin and fls file for Smartflashtool.
If you wanna root it, you need Ubuntu or another linux distribution, which supports the dd command.
Then follow THIS
It's really easy, so dont ask for rooted software anymore, but make it on your own.
To flash and actually root the SW, you need to follow THIS guide, from Step 2 on, and it will be perfectly rooted and you can be sure, that noone patched anything else in your software, cause you made it on your own
Now you can link to this post directly, if anyone is asking for ANY rooted version
There already is an updated tool, which does the unpacking and injecting CWM automatically. I am sorry, but I dont have time, to update the post, so here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692191
Here you can get every kdz firmware, you need: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1
More more detailed information will be found here
Catching a logcat:
Whenever you QQ (cry) around because anything doesnt work, every dev can only guess, what s your problem. If you wanna provide the necessary information to him, give him a logcat and he will be happy and fix the bug you are getting.
Ricardo Cerqueira once posted this pic about this topic
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

}
So here is what you need to do, before you report the next bug/error to your dev.
1. Download QtADB from HERE (Find their HP here: http://qtadb.wordpress.com/)
2. Extract it to some place you wanna have it.
3. Now Open QtADB.exe
4. Connect your phone in debug mode
5. Click logcat on the left side (it's the last one)
6. Now Reproduce the problem, that you have, like force closes or other stuff.
7. Maybe reproduce it a second time
8. Push ctrl+A to mark all the lines
9. Right click it and choose, export selected to file
10. Save it to a place, where you can refind it.
11. Upload it somewhere (e.g. mediafire.com)
12. Post in the corresponding thread and give them a description of the error, so they know, what they need to look for and the link to the uploaded logcat.
This will improve a lot of ROMs around here, cause everyone uses it, but hardly anyone (including myself) can contribute to cooking/deving. So do us all the favour, that if you experiance an error and it's cause by the ROM and not a buggy installation, make a logcat and post it to the threads of the devs
Here is how it typically looks (Zeus ROM v4.02 + LG kernel without dimming light):

More detailed information to come here, like governors and schedulers, ...
This is going to be a big NOOB how to, since I read the same questions OVER AND OVER again! If anyone then asks a question, that is already answered here, just redirect them here and close/delete their thread.
I am sorry for not having updated this in a long time, but there is simply stuff, that seems more important to me, than Android
Important Terms:
NooB: My own definition: A person who is new to a subject and knows hardly anything about it. And since you read this, you seem to be one of them Since I am reading and thinking this in this moment, I am, too
CWM: Clock Work Mod (Recovery Menu)
SFT: Smartflashtool
B2C: Lg Mobile Update Tool
ADB: a command prompt, which is very power- and usefull. Instead, you can also use THIS(credits to achyut)
SoD: Screen of Death, which means, that your phone is frozen, and you can't do anything at all. Often combined, with a heating up, of the device.
su/SU: Can have two meanings, either the the Superuser rights, that permit programms/apps root privileges, or superuser binaries (a part of the Superuser app).
UV: Undervolting, which means setting a lower voltage to your CPU/GPU
--> Saves battery, may cause instability.
OC: Overclocking, means setting higher speed to your CPU/GPU
-->Higher speed, but mostly also higher battery drain, or instability.
Nandroid: A backup of the whole system, made with CWM, can be restored within minutes.
OTA: Over The Air, Update via Wifi/network, I suggest you not do use it.
FC: Force Close, error with apps, which forces them to be closed.
chmod: Set permissions to a file. E.g. make it read/writeable.
Lets start with ROMs/kernels:
ROM is practicly the whole Operating System of your android device. It includes all software needed, plus a kernel.
Then there are kernels, which mostly tweak some stuff, in order to save battery, provide more speed, provide stuff like OC(overlocking) and UV(undervolting).
A modified kernel is not a whole ROM! It only is additionally to a ROM, in order to tweak it
A kernel is the HEART of a ROM. (Thanks to gabwerkz) Also see here: Kernel

What's the best ROM for you:
If you wonder what's the best ROM for you go to: Best ROM for Optimus Black
Or go here: Best ROM for Optimus Black
I gave some information to the ROMs here, and which MIGHT fit you best, just try them.
Root:
Why would u want it?
Cause this gives you something like admin privileges in windows.
This allows you to modify/add, delete,... files, that ususally are protected.
It also allows you to install ClockWorkMod, which in turn allows you to flash custom ROMs, which we all like so much, because of their smoothness, battery saving possibilities, OCing, UVing, and so on
ROOT ON Froyo (2.2.x, v10x)
For the v10x Versions (Froyo, Android 2.2.x), BlackJack should work in most cases, find it here:
[STARTER] Upgrade Kit 3.6 | Apps 1.9 | Root, Flash, Unbrick, Tuts...
Also find a CWM installer in this package, or download ROM Manager from android market and install CWM (ClockWorkMod) from there.
CWM gives you the possibility, to boot to a special kind of OS, that allows you to delete data, mount system, data,... And most important flash .zip files.
If a version cant be rooted by using Blackjack, try SOC (SuperOneClick).
If this still doesnt work, leave a comment, of your version and a link or description, of how to root it.
You also might wanna try UnlockRoot.
ROOT FOR Gingerbread (V20x, 2.3.x)
For v20x(GB, Android 2.3.x): ROOT V20x
see v20a UAE: ROOT v20a (made by myself, hope it works)
see v20S: ROOT v20sYou can download a pre-rooted V20s here. Follow the link HERE
If you still are unable to root it, discuss it here: [Q] How to root P970 Gingerbread V20N
OR here: LGE P970 V20* GB Rooting
DO IT YOURSELF
FOLLOW THIS VIDEO TUTORIAL by wagstuff13
To flash and actually root the SW, you need to follow THIS guide, from Step 2 on, and it will be perfectly rooted and you can be sure, that noone patched anything else in your software, cause you made it on your own
There already is an updated tool, which does the unpacking and injecting CWM automatically. I am sorry, but I dont have time, to update the post, so here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692191
Here you can get every kdz firmware, you need: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1
Root on ICS:
It's really simple. Download: THANKS TO ILKO for the clean installer.
Install, run, reboot your phone and your done
Please do not try to install CWM on ICS. You'll get a security error and will have to unbrick your device!
If you already have ICS stock on your phone, there is a simply procedure, that will allow you to get CWM again, but you'll have to install a new ROM via Smartflashtool.
1. You need a V20 ROM, that has been patched with CWM, like THIS ONE.
2. You need Smartflashtool
3. Download Superuser.zip from here: http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip and put it on your SD card.
4. Unpack the V20S patched .7z file
5. Flash the .bin file using SFT
6. Your phone will reboot to recovery
7. Do a factory reset and if you wanna stick with a rooted v20S, just flash the superuser.zip and reboot. If you already want to install a custom ROM, just put that on your sd card and flash it (see how to install a custom ROM).
8. Reboot and enjoy your new ROM
The UNROOT
If you wanna unroot your device, why so ever, the easiest way is to use Unlock Root (Link above) open it, connect your phone via USB, enable Debugging Mode and click unroot. If you wanna unroot it, e.g. to be able to send it back to LG on warranty, better use the method below, to unbrick your device with R&D tool.
Because like this, you will get back an unrooted device, which has also been hardresetted. So LG will hardly/never get a clue, that it has ever been rooted.
Dont forget to format your SD card as well
How to install Custom ROM's
First of all, you need a rooted phone already. See above, how to do it
Then you need to install CWM (Clock Work Mod), you can do this e.g. by downloading ROM Manager, install it, open it
and find Install Clockwork Mod Recovery. Hit it, wait some seconds and click LGE optimus Black. Wait again, till the file has been downloaded and installed and your all set Now you can reboot into Recovery, with the second option. It says, what it does: Reboot to recovery
Now grab the ROM you desire the most and download the zip. Plug your phone to the PC (via USB) open up the folder of your SD card, and copy the file you downloaded in there. Dont copy it into a subfolder, since it will only be harder to find.
Now go back to ROM Manager and click reboot recovery, or if you have adb installed, just type reboot recovery in a terminal on your pc.
You are in recovery menu now.
First of all do a nandroid backup (explained on top). To do so, go to Backup and Restore, then Backup and wait.
It will now make a complete backup of the whole system, settings, and so on.
If something goes wrong during the installation of the new ROM, you can simply revert back to the state you had before.
Your ready to install the new ROM now.
Now it depends, on if you only update a ROM, like CM, or if you install a completely new ROM.
If you install a new ROM, do a full wipe. This means, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, go to advanced, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats and go back. now select install zip from SD card. Then choose zip from sdcard and then select the file you downloaded.
Wait till all is set up and enjoy your new ROM
If you only update a ROM, follow the instructions given in the thread about the ROM.
What to do if the Update failed?
Well it depends on how much you failed, what u had installed before and if Huexxx Recovery fix was applied.
First scenario:
Huexxx's patch was applied in the ROM before.
This enables to boot to recovery by repeatedly pushing a hard key, like volume- or g-key directly after you start the phone.
Push em fast, while the softkeys are flashing(turn on and off). As soon as they stop flashing, you will be in recovery and can either restore a backup, or install another zip file.
Second scenario:
CWM is still enterable via adb.
You first of all need to download and "install" ADB.
Best will be, to simply extract the files to C: and also rename the new folder to a short term like "ADB" without "".
Then open the command prompt, navigate to the folder of adb: e.g.
Code:
C:
cd ADB
cd adb
Now you should be in the adb folder, where you can find adb.exe and some other files.
If not, check out, how it is called and navigate there in another way.
"cd" means change directory, so if you didnt rename it to ADB, but e.g. ADB-sdk, type cd ADB-sdk instead.
Ok, now simply type adb reboot recovery and wait.
Now your phone should restart to Recovery Mode.
But watch out, if you do this with a working ROM, and forgot to install CWM, you will get a factory reset!
Third scenario:
None of the above worked. Then you have no chance, but to to use the unbricking method below. Then root your device, install CWM and you can have a new try
Unbricking:
Your Phone doesnt boot anmore or only shows the LG screen contantly!
If your phone is stuck in bootloop, have a look in here: SMARTFLASHTOOL
You can download the patched V20s from ABOVE or take the v10a from here
Flash with R&D Tool:
The upper is the easier and faster solution, but if you really need R&D Testtool, because Smartflash didnt help, grab R&D tool HERE(it's in the package), and then follow THIS guide
You can also use the latter method, if you wanna return your phone on warranty. But I would make a Factory reset afterwards anyway. And don't forget to remove all files from your SD card as well, since this could show them as well, that the phone might have been rooted.
Themes And Apps
Themes are modifications to the look of your UI (UserInterface). This gives your Operating System a different Look.
There are a lot of things, you need to pay attention to.
For example there are ODEXED = easier on space, tougher on tweaking and ram usage (just a short explanation)
and Deodexed = easier to tweak, lighter on ram, heavier on space
Find more information on this HERE
Now you need to know, if your ROM is odexed, or deodexed. You mostly find information on this directly in the thread of the ROM you are using (see above).
If you know what kind of ROM you are using, go to the Themes link above and choose whatever you like. There is almost always written, for which specific ROM this was made (e.g. Zeus ROM, Stock GB, stock Froyo,...) And mostly, if you need a odexed or deodexed Version of a ROM, or not.
It's pretty much like odexed files also work on deodexed Software, but not the other way around. (NOT ALWAYS)
Then you encounter bugs like missing statusbar, display bugs, glitches, ...
So check if the theme you are willing to try will REALLY work for your device.
If you wanna make your own Themes, check out UOT KITCHEN Or these two threads: HERE AND HERE Credits to gabwerkz and Huexxx.

Can you tell me, why anyone with a rooted phone would want it? I mean, sending it back to the provider for repair or similar is a reason, I can understand, but what are other reasons? Idk if it's enough to flash it with smartflash and afterward go to hidden menu and do a factory reset, but I guess this should work fine
Any suggestions on this? Or maybe the R&D tool and workaround?
This is not a Q&A thread

The means to unroot isn't in the first post, and the OP is discussing this issue with him so - don't post unnecessary chides, it is a legitimate question, posted before I warned that this isn't a Q&A thread. Hopefully the answer will be included in the OP, as it is something that will be asked - over and over again .

You have helped me out quite a few times earlier and now I thank you for the "real thing": being generous enough to go through the trouble of making things easier to everyone else. That takes patience and a really good deal of generosity. And maturity above everything else.
When I began working with IT by 1981 I was nice to my peers. Then I became more and more technical and efficient at my job, and harder and harder at my peers and everyone else.
In return (despite all my capacity) I only drew drawbacks. My career sank. I had to start it all over again, with a different drive. ;-)
Today IT is just a hobby, and it's encouraging to see that at least a few of the most gifted people are showing that gift and contempt are not always bound to each other! :-D
Attitudes like yours, although they don't warrant you (1) a $300K/Y job, they DO warrant you (2) a very, very nice feeling that is hard to describe (albeit I suspect that you already know it) and (3) raise the suspicion that there's really a God and that (4) we are really above the rest of the animal kinds. I hope you get all four.
Congratulations and just forgive me for the last kitsch words

Thank you very much, for such an encouraging post I like and appreciate it very much. But there is one thing, that I can't stop wondering about, how could I help you out already? I mean you should probably know more bout IT and programming and stuff than me... Just curious Anyway, I like to help ppl out a lot. I also do this in real life a lot, but the problem is, that a lot of ppl dont pay you back at all. Just using one's knowledge/money/whatever and not giving back anything, or even ignoring advices and stuff is something I hate the most! Just like some of the Noobs here. I have nothing against questions and there never will be a stupid one, so dont stop asking, it is an important part in life. But I hate the ignorant noobs, that dont even try to use the search, dont look around in the forum, are simply too lazy, to look around but simply create their own threads, with questions, or information, that can already be found here. And mostly you can't only find it once, but already several times, because of them.
So dont stop asking, but use search first, pls... I'm also still a noob, so I also gotta ask a lot of questions, and this will never stop, until I either throw away all the IT around me, a solar storm makes it impossible for us to use any kind of IT, or I am dead
So to all the others here, share your knowledge with the ones, who also would like to have it. I also know, that it is time consuming, but trust me, giving, will mostly/always be warranted in any way later. I believe in karma and who gives good, will receive good. So maybe one day, when you dont have time/dont wanna mod anymore, but still wanna use good modded software, you need someone else to do it for you and who could do this better, but a person, that learned from you? So I never will stop supporting this community as long, as I got some time.
And I also know, I was writing a lot now and better stop now
Just one last thing, keep me posted, if we need some information added, so it can be found more easily, as long as it can be explained in a way, even I will understand

It depends on the time frame.
I know a lot of old-school stuff that is still valid, but when it comes to Android I'm a complete moron. Got my OB by Oct 2011 and I'm still trying to leave the craddle. BTW this OB is my first SP, and I wanted to take the most out of it.
Yes I need help, and XDA is BY FAR the best Android site I've seen in the net.

For some time I used to post frequently at ABXZone (used to be a more populated community) under the same nickname and believed EXACTLY the same thing. I don't post so often these days, since my kids keep me busy enough. But as I said, when it comes to Android phones I'm still a complete moron, so in some way I'm being paid back here for that I did there.

Good idea to gather everything on one place and make the mess a bit easier to handle..
I helped myself with the TWRP and the LOS17, much obliged. Don't really need help otherwise.
That is, unless you know why my t705 (i have one of those too) keeps messing with me and losing charge even when switched off...

I'll be honest, my Tab s battery has decreased to about 2100 mAh from 4900 so it's probably just age I'm afraid. If you use it more, you could do a battery transplant, but I don't have ROMs for klimtlte. Thanks for using my mirror

Not battery. Changed it. And the same battery works fine on T700 and does not lose charge when off. Tried flashing other ROM as well, but i can't find solution.

Odd indeed. And really frustrating. :-/
Have not tried with custom kernel but can of course do that, if it's simple. But, like i said - it's a T705, you mean there is one already made or are you just going to make one on a coffee break?

There's one already made I think. I'll see if I can find one and alert you when it's up. Obvs I can't do a check for safety without the hardware so make a full backup of the boot partition just in case. I'll make sure to find one with good reviews

Will try right away, but can't really see if had any effect untill morning.
I thought first to ask you if it is possible to use this on stock too, but then it struck me how stupid idea that is, since it's not the same Android version. Because one of them is on stock and behaving the same way. Which basically leads me to believe that it actually is a hardware fault...

Thank you kindly!

Sorry for delay in answering..
Unfortunatelly the error is still present. Like i said, probably a software issue.
Bit thanx anuway!
Thanks for creating a section specifically for the SM-T700! I hope that I can get some practical help on moving forward
On my post here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...d-but-ok-with-resurrection-remix-why.4332701/) I describe my attempt to install a variation of LineageOS 17.1 on my device -- always running into 'E1001'. I eventually settled on an older Resurrection Remix, since someone mentioned that it would ultimately make it possible to move to LineageOS (I have not tried that yet).
Here are some of my questions:
1) In a much larger/older thread (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...t700-sm-t705-sm-t800-sm-t800-sm-p600.4270943/) the first step is "Flash latest official Samsung Firmware with ODIN". Is this even relevant to me?
2) In preparation for successfully installing LineageOS, what TWRP clearing/formatting options should I be using? On a completely different device, the instructions were to delete *everything*. Could my wrong choices when doing this for my SM-T700 have contributed to my failures?
3) Now that I (currently) have Resurrection Remix on my SM-T700, can I expect -- with the binaries mentioned in this new subgroup -- to be able to install LineageOS 17.1 *without* running into the 'E1001' problem?
Thanks for any help!

Hey! Sorry for the delay. You should flash the latest firmware (it's on updato.com) Using Odin, and then twrp with Odin, and then the custom ROM from twrp, wiping data dalvik and cache before rebooting. Other two are in the mirror.

Just an FYI...I was reluctant to start everything over again with Odin and latest Samsung firmware, so I opted to take a chance and merely 'adb push' the LineageOS and GApps that you have on your Google drive (along with some cache erasures as you suggested) and everything seemed to upgrade properly from Resurrection Remix to LineageOS 17.1
A few minor problems so far: camera doesn't work, and initial signon to the tablet with a PIN doesn't work so well (seems to take multiple attempts). In any case, now running Android 10!
These were issues that I faced too - I never found a way to fix them. Neither did the original Dev, but apparently updating to the latest webview fixes chrome crashes. PIN you need to wait 30seconds after boot. Camera works only with clean install and even then sometimes doesn't work.
Hope this helps,
Cessna
I was trying to install TWRP but after reboot when I go to the Recovery mode there is no TWRP. I installed the LOS on my Tab Pro 8.4 and wanted to install LOS on Tab S 8.4 but can't flash the TWRP. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks
