Database Develop

[Q] Is there a list of roms that are updateable thru ROM MGR clockwork?

Im sorry but I Didnt see a thread dedicated to this feature. I apologize in advance if this has been covered elsewhere.
Y!S

All roms are flashed via CWM unless they say to do it differently in their thread. CM7 is about the only one that's not done this way.
Nobody gives install instructions anymore since it should be common knowledge if you did your research.
Also, this is NOT a development question. We have a Q&A section for these types of questions.

all custom roms come with CWM built into the kernel.
once you have a custom rom you DONT USE rom manager anymore.
also this is the DEVELOPMENT section.
DO NOT POST QUESTIONS HERE!!!
questions go in Q&A

you guys are misunderstanding his question, ROM manager is capable of sending out OTA's for individual ROM's if the ROM creator implements this feature. as far as I know, there are yet to be any ROM's that use this in the Captivate section, though please tell me if I'm wrong. CM7 will use this feature once it's capable of using ROM manager through a properly functioning param.ko
as for you two, no need to be so aggressive/rude. you didn't answer his question properly and were a bit extreme in your judgment toward him. but as for you OP, they are correct in that this isn't truly related to development and is more suited to "General" or "Q&A" from now on.

my point was nobody uses rom manager after stock anymore.
if someone cant properly post, they wont get a full complete answer

Hey TRusselo you have gone beyond making it known that I posted in the wrong section but no matter how I look at your answers you still come across as a big fat jerk. There isnt any need whatsoever for you to post that.. and then to come back and repeat yourself with another entry saying the SAME thing and MAINTAINING the attitude.. you got my attention.
Kaik541 did answer my question. I was wondering if any devs have used this feature in rom manager. For over the air updates.
As to the reason why I posted in the DEVs section was because i thought that it was a development question. ROMS updated over the air thru ROM MANAGER is implemented by DEVELOPERS. It stands to reason why i have not seen any notes in any DEVELOPERS release and that is apparently no DEVELOPERS are using this feature. I hope that I made it understood as to WHY I posted in the dev section. I am now more familiar with the rules so I do beg your pardon for posting in the wrong place.
Nightly builds that can be updated over the air seems like it would really be something that a DEV would utilize with all the tweeks contently done to these roms. I for one look forward to having such a useful tool.

Nightly builds aren't considered updates. They are made so the flash happy people have something else to play with and test for the devs. They aren't meant for everyone to use as DD's. Utilizing this feature for nightlie's would end up with TONS of questions from newbs that don't know how to fix what they just did.

This has been brought up a few times and to be honest with all the possible issues that could come across from OTA updates like flashing a bad file cause you lost connection for a split sec and didn't notice, I wouldn't use it. The first att OTA update proved this. Thousands of bricks, then it was released by Kris update. Alot less bricks.

[Q] Android 2.3.3 for the Tab

As I own a Galaxy Tab with Android 2.2 I would like to change to Android 2.3.3
The Basband version in use is: P1000DXJJ2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 root(at)SE-S604 #1
Build number: FROYO.DXJK2
Now my question is: could I just manual upgrade to version 2.3.3 which I had downloaded, in total 4 files:
P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1q000XXJPZ.zip
dbdata.zip
gt-p1000_mr_PIT.zip
ODIN3 v1.83.exe
Could someone please tell me it's ok to use that files or, if not, point me in the right direction.
Thank you so much for any answer.

This rom is for european galaxy tab, but I think you can flash it on an asian version of the tab. Look at the development section for this rom.

Can I ask two questions...
(a) Where did you get the download from and (b) have you installed the ROM and how did it go?

To your question:
a: androidtotal. com/manually-install-update-samsung-galaxy-tab-to-android-2.3.3-gingerbread/
b: I asked my question in the OP before I try to install!
I do NOT like to brick my Tab with an unsupported Rom! That's why I ask upfront the Rom could be used on my Asian Tab or not.

Unfortunate, I couldn't post in the Dev section right now because of my post count.
As my Tab is an unlocked Tab with Quadband and 3G (900/1900/2100 MHz) I hope that everything will works with the Europe version, I just want to be sure not to brick the device!

You shouldn't have been posting in the dev section anyway, that is for posting of dev projects/reference.

No, you are wrong. We have a Q&A forum, try using some common sense. Do you honestly think that its sane to allow questions or other type of topics to be created in the dev section? It would just lead to a complete un-organized mess and browsing the dev section would be a pain in the arse.

First at all: The Q&A forum haven't gave an answer within a week or more! Do you really think that's OK?
Secondly: My question were for the Gingerbread Version (Overcome Beta) which is running in the Dev forum and therefore I really do believe that those forum were the right place for to ask questions about that specific version.
After NOT getting an answer in the Q&A forum, I done more researches and found the Samsung Stock Rom (NOT on this forum) and was asking my final question in the Samsung Galaxy Tab General forum.
My remark about the min. post count for to be able to post in the dev forum were just that: A REMARK.
Last but not least, this is a public forum and as long as I stay to the rules, I could post as I like and as it is allowed! There only the forum staff, means Admin's and Moderators who have the right to limit a action or posting ability of an 'normal' user and those will be done in case of an breach of the rules only.
I'm Administrator on one Board and Global Moderator on an other Board and believe me or not, I know what I'm talking about.

Have a nice day.

And YES, it works!
I updated the last night from 2.2 t0 2.3.3 and everything is fine now. It's quite a bit of improvement compare to Froyo.
Thanks for the info.

Hey pcinfo1, I'm searching around the forum, we are on the same stock ROM.
I like to know if its ok for me to flash to Overcome ROM v3.1.0-KRATOS???
Thanks!

Ok to flash overcome rom ONLY if you update to stock gingerbread 1st. You need the gb bootloaders installed otherwise you will end up with your tab hanging on the samsung logo. Thankfully overcome has the safe stock gb rom v5 that has the gingerbread bootloaders. All you need to do is find the modem.bin file for your region/carrier and you're set.

I'm from Singapore and it should be considered as Asian set right? Thanks!

The reason there are no answers given sometimes is because the questions are so weak, or have been asked and answered soo many times.
If you post a question that doesn't get answered within a day (not within 30 minutes like some people expect), rethink your question.
Posts that have "Hi guys, I'm new" or "Help, I've bricked my tab" for titles tend to get passed over.

ROM questions

hey folks,
Looking at flashing my first rom, still deciding between serendipity, miui and CM7. In terms of stability, which one is currently the best? I know many are a matter of opinion. The one thing I cannot piece together is the talk of kernals and modems. Do you need to install these if you flash a custom rom? Do they come with the rom install?

This should be posted on the Q&A section.
Mod, please move.

I'm on Serendipity 7 right now and love it its extremely stable for what I use the phone for.
As for kernels and modems they usually come with the rom they are flashed when the rom is. The modem controls all of the radio aspects of the phone while the kernels runs various functions of the phone.
But questions like this should be in Q&A for future reference.

Few things:
- There is no "best" anything on XDA, it's all opinion, and both members and MODs tend to frown upon "what's the best XXXX" type threads
- This question should have been posted in "Q&A" not development
- It sounds like you need to READ quite a bit more before you try to go about flashing anything. If you're asking questions like "what is a kernel or modem?" you probably aren't qualified to start flashing yet. It's dangerous, and can turn your phone into an expensive coaster.
Welcome to XDA!

not worried about bricking as I've worked on a number of devices outside of android. Just looking for some quick answers. Didn't need three flames...

Your quick answers are already answered. The flames are not flames but someone frustrated by someone asking the same question that's been answered so many times its unreal. Seeing as how there is a thread conviently named how to flash a ROM over in the Q&A section the "flames" are warrented. If you want my opinion the best way to learn something is by just doing it. Read, read, and read some more. Honestly, you're lucky that the "flames" were as nice as the were.

This thread is probably about to be closed...
Please don't ask these sort of questions in the Dev section. People will get angry and they will tell you. This isn't about development at all so it has no need to be in this forum. To sort of answer your question, IN MY OPINION Samsung based ROMs will provide more stability than CM7/MIUI.

New here on note 4 910T

HI users im New with this Phone i changue my iPhone 6 forma this one ando well
Can someone recomendme things?
Like root, custom ROMS (what rom is the best right now) how to erase my blootware etc etc
Best configurations
Thx for your answers

Welcome to the dark side...jk
Yeah I would start by looking up the thread on CF Auto Root and flashing custom recovery.
Then head over to the developer section, there are a few great ROMs out, but I will let you read up on them to decide which is best for you.
Basic understanding though is that you have 2 types of ROMs.
1.) Stock ROMS are based on the software skin (Touchwiz) that comes on the phone. Normally with added features, themes, and performance tweaks.
2.) AOSP ROMS these are based on stock vinilla Android (5.0.2 Lollipop right now). These will give you a more "Nexus like" experience, but also remove ALL of the built in Samsung features and software.
If you get stuck search for the "Noob Friendly" thread and there are people who are willing to help you out.

Well since you thread is mostly a question and request for assistance it belongs in the Q&A section not the General section.
I am sure you will get lots of help and direction in the correct area as we have taken the liberty to move this for you.
Also when it comes to best Rom that is a highly suggestive subject, as what is best for someone else may not be best for you. Our recommendation is that you do some research read the threads in the Development section and figure which Rom has features that you are interested in and what the users are saying about it.
Welcome to the forums, read a lot and have fun with your device.
