Now that we have root...how long till we can get a new rom on there?
Never happy...
We need clockworkmod recovery first to even flash a rom. Probably looking at another week or two for the first rom.

As soon as we get a custom recovery, I'm going to try at ROM developing. I wanted to on my Eris for a while, but I never got around to it (I actually did develop one, but never released it and it wasn't incredibly good, so I stopped using it myself after about a day >_>), and this phone seems like a good one to start on.

It's not necesary. You can make and install ROMs without CWM, you just cant make it idiot proof like CWM .zips are
I want Webtop to run on the device.

I fixed it..
i think i was using th wrong OR to my device, i just changed from Minimod to 2ndbootOR
thanks anyways
Hello,
I have had some issues with a ROM (Extreme ICS) and had to reinstall it.
I backep up everything as Nandroid Backup, because there were several bootloops, everytime stuck etc. and when I restored it, again bootloops.
I restored only "data".
Now, I flashed CM9 and tried to restore only the "data" at "advanced restore", but again, it stucks at the CM9 boot screen and is loading .. now since 10 minutes ..
Tried it with DevilKernel and Semaphore and stock CM9 Kernel of course.
Nothing.
Can I do everything ? Any ideas ? I want to have my apps like colorNote again
Thank you,
YEA64
Restore data one app at a time, and no system data, then you can find the data that is causing problems

Damn .. so I can't do anything .. ?
It boots until the boot screen of the ROM .. it passes the Kernel logo and so on .. but it "loads" to a long time, so in your opinion it is non sense to wait ?

I would go for a clean instal, I go back to gb every month or so, just to keep it clean and slick, only takes an hour to clean flash and restore back to where I am on slim, then as soon as I'm back and clean I do fresh nandroid and I know I'm safe and protected, might sound over the top but I give a lot of advise on slim thread and I need to know what works, what are bugs, and what is caused by user mess ups!

Hey everyone!
I've had plenty of Android phones through out the years. But recently i had the Iphone 4s. But after 3 months I was so sick of it. So today, i went and bought myself a SGN, and i love it! Have been playing around with it for 1-2 hours now.
I just rooted it via a youtube-clip I found. I'm still on gingerbread though, cuz I don't have a normal sized sim card (the iphone only takes small ones). But here are my questions I need help with.
1) Is there any way to update to ICS without a simcard? Because when I try to update OTA, it just says "Insert simcard".
2) What is your keyboard of choice?
3) I've seen plenty of you guys going in to so called "tablet mode". How do you do that? I want my phone to be in landscape all the time.
4) Is there any good battery packs that works with a flip (book style) case that works like a kickstand if you fold it in a special way? I have seen both good 3rd part batteries AND nice flip book cases that can be folded in to a kickstand, but I want the two of them in one. Or a better battery that are the same physical size as the stock one.
Thanks!
Have a look to my signature, it will be better for good starting

Best keyboard is Swype.
Don't know about SIM free install.
I suspect a CWM install doesn't require a SIM.
Make sure you read Dr. Ketan for all of the critical info you need for safe ROM and kernel flashing.

dude, is there any way u can give me like 5 min one-on-one help on skype? It's so much text on your (amazing) tutorial-threads.. my head hurts haha
I think it was your video on youtube I saw. So, I have rooted Gingerbread, but want ICS and rooted. Do i have to "unroot" to update to ICS? or can I flash a ICS rom just the way i did with gingerbread one? I'm a bit confused here haha.

The best way to mess with roms on a rooted note is mobile odin pro. Flash whatever rom you like without ever loosing root again.

1st :- You can flash ICS using PC Odin or Mobile Odin Pro. Just download the rom from ketan thread and put your phone in download mode by pressing Vol Down+Home+Power button simultaneously.
2nd :- For me Swiftkey 3. Link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey&feature=top-paid
3rd :- Tablet mode is the mode that runs on tablets. But as the developers doing wonders day by day you can use it on SGN too. There are some roms in Original Android Development Thread that supports Tablet mode like Paranoid Android/Milestone 6/JB/CM10/CM9 editions. Link to thread :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1700
4th :- You can have a look in the accessories section here :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1348
Or here

I think I've messed up a bit haha. I flashed ICS with PC odin, and everything was fine. But I wanted do try Paranoidandroid. And in that thread it said that you should go back to GB before flashing it. So i did via the link in your signature. I flashed back to GB. But now my phone got messed up. I can boot it up. But at the "first-start-installation" thingy i get FC's on RAM and some calender stuff. Also, when i try to type in my gmail in the beginning it just types "null" for every letter I try to write.
Have i been so stupid and bricked my phone? Could it be that your GB in your signature was a full wipe recovery thing? Cuz I remembered somewhere that you shouldn't wipe the stock ICS.
You have any plans?
As for now, i'm downloading Paranoidandroid v0.5 and i'm going to try to flash it right away and see what happends.
Nothing to.worry, just reboot in recovery and wipe cache and data then flash custom rom.
Force closes is normal when you flash gb rom over ics. And null typing error will go with mew rom.

ok so i got ParanoidAndroid to work. No problem. The only problem I have now is installing the gapps. can't find the zip file for it. On the link in the thread, there's like 12 different files, but no complete zip file for gapps. And I tried to download them all, but them on my sd card and install. But all of them fails. it's like frameworks, some settings thingy n stuff. But non of them works to install from the recovery menu.

If I do a factory reset in recovery while safe system is enabled, does that only reset the Rom on that side of the partition? Or does it reset the other side where I have 232 installed (safe system disabled) as well?
A little background: I was having issues on 232 with reboots after a month or so so I decided to give liquid a shot which seems ok so far.
Any help would be appreciated.

I think the main thing that is used from the "non-safe" side on the "safe-side" is the kernel. I was having some problems with 232 and did a factory reset and it helped, but you will loose all of apps and data, even safestrap. You will have to install it again and flash a ROM to your "safe-side" again because it will delete the preinstall where your "safe system" is stored.

No prob. There are a few new CM10 and AOKP based Jelly Bean builds that are pretty stable and very fast if you're looking for some new ROMs. I running AOKP and loving it.

Question. If I nandroid on the safe side, factory reset on the 232 side. A) will I lose root B) if I won't lose root can I just factory reset, reinstall safestrap go to safe mode then restore the current nandroid?

A) No you won't loose root.
B) I'm pretty sure you can restore a current nandroid.
Just make sure you don't restore a "safe" backup to the "non safe" side, and if you are going to try out Jelly Bean on your safe side make sure to format "/system" along with wiping when coming from ICS.

Try rebooting into safestrap and clearing cache, clearing dalvik cache, and fix permissions. Then reboot. It will take a couple of minutes for it to reboot the first time you reboot.

No, the only time you should format /system is when you are flashing a new ROM on the "safe side", and NEVER on the "non safe" side.

And always remember to keep a good backup of the "non safe" side! I have had a couple of stupid moments when I accidentally formatted the system on the non safe side and having a good backup saved me a lot of trouble.

Alright. When I did the factory reset it removed all those apps like lets golf etc that are pre installed. Is that going to cause any issues fxz'ing back?
Also, do I just follow the steps like in this guide to FXZ back?
