Be careful :changes like lagfix...

Well I am happy for the work That is being done by the XDA 15800 forum members esp rex,sahil,sazby,gsm101 , brave buddy , addicted and others...
However I just wish to draw people's attention to actually understanding how things like lagfix works so that they dont face the problems that I faced...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9745695&postcount=40
Just chck out the final piece of code of UN-lagfix that u run to undo i5800 lagfix:
echo "Cleaning /data"
cd /data
busybox rm -r *
echo "Removing auto boot support"
busybox mv /system/bin/playlogosnow /system/bin/playlogos
echo "All done! Rebooting device so that the EXT2 Loopback device is freed."
reboot
chck out the bold part. so what the lagfix does is create a ext2 partion in your internal memory, and whenever your device boots , it is automatically directed to that ext2 chunk.
Now if your phone is working correctly, then no problem.
However IF your phone crashes while u still have lagfix enabled... well I guess after that people will be stuck onto their boot screen staring at i5800 logo for days to come....
morever whatever firmware u flash, since the command makes changes in the mbr, it cant be resolved by usual flashing via odin.
You actually need to restore the proper boot partition which can be done via adb . But then ADB can be used only when the phone is on and in debugging mode..
more reasons why you should be careful with these fixes is
1) i5800 is a relatively new phone. We still don't have the stock kernel, stock recovery with us. For other phones like galaxy s that is available for download.
2) The odin for i5800 is meant mainly for flashing(its not yet advanced). However it lacks the repartition option that is present in galaxy s odin.
3)No clockwork mod recovery for i5800 . Nandroid backup not there.
This post is not meant to be disrespectful to others. I have immense respect for people who work hard and take risks to bring new features to our phones But still it is better to understand something before we do it.. I have learned it the hard way.
anyway for those who have an indian i5801, might want to know that only 2 firmwares out there to solve the issues. so any issues you face do keep a copy of both in your pc, esp datafs and zimage..
ddj5/ddj6
first you flash only the boot kernel, ie zimage, and then again u flash ddj6 . If you are lucky it will boot correctly.

what is indian i5801 stock firmware ?
be the way if you flash or stay in the boot screen
is the MULTI CSC fimrware make this bug
efs is not flash by odin,and the product code and imei is in nv_data.bin
if the stock efs only have one csc ,flash to MULTI CSC firmware
like I5801DKATGY(HONGKONG),only have one csc
flash I5800XWJH2 is ok,if flash XXJP8 JP9 JPA MULTI CSC firmware
that stay in the boot screen

Quite an interesting post these things are surely of importance and we people will have to start from scratch and either make other work tweaked for our purpose or have to build new one.
I will be looking into the details and first thing of importance is to have a backup plan when things go wrong because ppl who buy this phone buy it mostly because they cant afford more expansive ones or 2 phone so safety should be the first and foremost concern here.....
Happy coding...

well the default firmware for Indian i5801 is
july ddj5
august ddj6
and yeah it is a multi-csc firmware( csc corresponds to area and apns)
but the problem is that the version of ddj5 and ddj6 hosted on sam firmware are leaked builds...
the original build should be ddj2/3 (4 is unlucky in korean)
p.s. If any indianforum member who is reading this has an untouched(never rooted,never flashed) new i5801, then we can try and extract stock kernel , bootloader , ziimage and boot.bin from there so that we have a safety net in future.

addicted2088 here.. The two threads that I've started don't mess with the system files at all. Nothing can go wrong because of them..
Just letting people know that any bricked phones are not because of my instructions, but can be because of the work done by the other members named above. But since the work they're doing is good, we all gotta take some risks. I know I do..
No disrespect to those whose names have been mentioned in this thread. Appreciate the great work that you guys are doing..

I have the indian ddjg6 version of galaxy 3...but i rooted the device by z4root but nothing else is done like flashing...and all...

Hello ..
So, in theory, the lagfix i had ported doesn't change at all the partition scheme of the i5800, since it's a LOOPBACK device in the /data partition: If you prefer, a partition in the partition. So, it can't, at all, brick your phone, since you ALWAYS can flash again with Odin (As i said before, you should remove the battery while not in USB/AC).
And you HAVE TO flash a datafs.rfs if something went wrong. I say it again.

hello, Thanks for the feedback...
I just created the thread so that we can make a repository of the stock kernel, boot etc. so that in future it will be useful when we go for nandroid backup or kies update

so does this lagfix work??? after all????
or not?
i have seen someone brick his phone....

this makes absolutely no sense to me... in that case you´d need to change the thread title and also content of first post, which makes all other posts obsolete what again makes the whole thread obsolete.
however, this lagfix is confirmed working multiple times but it surely needs some work to be done, and in my opinion is not really needed. my girlfriends G3 opens contacts even faster than my SGS (this however could have to do with her having 120 contacts versus me having 800+) despite my SGS runs on custom kernel with ext4 for data partition. Also Lagfixes though a loop device are always a little risky to loose data when doing an unpropper shutdown.
But what the op stated is just untrue, the lagfix does not resist a firmware flash if that firmware contains a datafs.rfs file.

Flashing chinamobile i9008 to i9000 ??? howto?

hi, im almos 12 hours trying to flash my chinamobile i9008 to an europe i9000. >.<
Is it even possible? If i try to flash it with odin it always says "wrong factoryfs.rfs"
Theres only one firware available for it, its called "I9008ZMJG1" but its with all the chinese **** on it, and no android market and so one =/
the flashtool of the original firmware is Aries v0.1 - and if i try to flash the original firmware its working fine with no problem. I also saw that the structure of the firmware is different from the normal i9000 one.
Is there any chance to flash it? Maybe a force flash somehow, so that he dont care about the factoryfs.rfs or so?
Big thx in advance
regards
btw: i get it as a gift so dont blame me

Try this, im in the same boat want to but cant but this is better than nothing

[Q] unfortunately SBF'd to GB..need some clarity on my next steps (moto noob)

So this is for my sister and I don't want to risk bricking her phone, but I'm not sure what my options are at this point. If you can take just a minute to help clarify what I should do at this point.
She was running a miui rom and some how or another got stuck in the loop of stock recovery and the battery with the question mark screen.. So after some research I saw I could boot in bootloader from stock recovery, then SBF and it would be fine.
I saw the warning on the SBF thread about not being able to downgrade if you used SBF to flash a Gingerbread rom, well I read that wrong and thought it meant if youre currently on a GB rom, you couldn't use SBF to downgrade. So i flashed the "4.5.3-109 Blur multilanguage" GB build and it works fine, but now I need to root it to flash a new rom and most require the Nordic (2.2) base and I can't use SBF to downgrade to it now..
Can I use this thread (http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/08/25/well-that-was-fast-one-click-droid-3-root-now-available/) to root GB, then install CWM, flashed a 2.2 rom, then SBF to Nordic?
Or do I need to follow these steps?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14762402&postcount=143
I'm very lost here and a huge Moto noob..any guidance would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks in advance

so...why didnt u post the first time before doing the stupid thing of flashing a full gb sbf ?
defy+ users are reporting that droid easy root works on theyr devices but u cant instal cm7 or miui on a gb base
u need to folow the downgrade tutorial if it works..i didn't tried it just coz i dont want to take any chances
ur solution for the boot loop would have been much simpler, either by wiping the phone in custom recovery
or wiping the phone in moto recovery, then flashing a new froyo sbf (any sbf except china one) and flash latest miui, then restore only data if she had a nandroid backup (i do 1 every week just to be shure)

At this point, it doesnt really matter, I made a mistake and this is where I'm at..I'm used to HTC devices and this is totally different.
I wasn't able to get into the custom recovery, I tried 20+ times and could not get into custom recovery, only stock. So i did wipe from there and flashed like the sbf. Like I said, I read the thread wrong, I thought it meant I couldnt sbf to Froyo since I was already on GB.
So should I try the 'easy root', then install CW, flash a froyo rom and then can I use SBF to go to Nordic?
Thanks for the reply..I appreciate any help..

I'm confused in the downgrade instructions where it says to flash the first build..How are you supposed to flash the build if its not rooted yet and its not a sbf file?

i know if you flash full GB sbf (is it full sbf?), then there is no chance for you to downgrade to froyo, you can only stay in GB (and above in the future)

That's a myth busted I have to say. You can install any AOSP rom from Gingerbread build. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287704
It depends if whether you want to flash MIUI then you can directly install it onto your GB, but if you want to go back to Froyo there's a really long and tiring process for that. Lemme know what's on your mind and I'll point you to it.

@civicvx94 shift happens man. Next time you should pay more attention to the warning messages. However you can go back and install Froyo on your sister's Defy, but you cannot do this just by flashing a FULL Froyo SBF. I think this post it's detailed enough and you'll be able to go back to Froyo if you follow those instructions. Then you can try to install 2nd init and put another ROM (like MIUI or CM7) and if you ever encounter any issues and you need to reinstall then you'll have to go again from base 0 (install the "special" eclair, root it, install recovery, install froyo nandroid and then the fixed sbf).

i`m sure u didnt tried that with a full gb, but with ms2ginger or MotoGinger
and as u said in ur post cm7 or miui only works untill u reboot the device
so yah, folow nepotu instructions but read the god damned instruction twice and then do something...ffs english is your main language

Care to explain the difference!?
And No, it works flawlessly I actually tried to replace the default bootmenu which led to the anomaly. Read the complete thread
before making "presumptions".

Thanks you guys so much for your help. This is one of the most helpful forums on xda..I have only owned HTC devices, and once you have a custom recovery installed switching between roms is no problem, so yeah I misread and messed up.
@ryan8r - I'm planning on going back to a MIUI or CM7 build, so that thread looks like it could be what I need..
@nepotu - thanks alot for that link, I believe that's the path I'm going to need to go, everything looks pretty straight forward there..
So you're saying that if I ever need to start over (once I have miui installed), instead of just being a sbf a Froyo build, I have to first sbf the special eclair build, root, 2nd init, then nandroid restore to Froyo, then use the fixed sbf to froyo?
Out of curiosity, is it possible to brick a Defy or can you normally sbf and save it? Just wondering in case I run into any issues..
Thanks again for the help

You welcome and yes if you screw up MIUI then you'll have to first flash that special Eclair (which has two partitions with code 5, same as leaked GB) and then follow the remaining steps. You cannot install Froyo via FULL SBF unless you have a special Froyo SBF with those two partitions upgraded to code 5. (Off course you can flash also the leaked GB)
You cannot build SBF files unless you have Moto digital signature. I assume that the special Eclair SBF is sort of zombie SBF, built from two ROMs (some partitions are from the leaked GB and some from Eclair). There is a tool (Moto depaker) that will allow you to "break" the SBF into CG files but you cannot change those partitions as it will change their checksum and therefore their digital signature won't be valid. Moreover you cannot flash a partition (CG) with a lower code than your Defy's partition.

Why don't you first install 2ndinit and try installing MIUI onto your current build. If that don't work you always have the chinese eclair at your disposal. I doubt if the CG partitions will cause problem with any AOSP rom.

Ok I think I have a lot better idea of whats going on now..
I'm about to start the process now, I think to be safe I think I'll go the longer route, and if I mess something up, then try to install miui on top of the GB build.
I'll report back with success/failure.
Thanks guys. wish me luck..ha

Well I went the longer route and have MIUI successfully installed on it, everything seems to be running great!
Thanks for all the help.

I'm in a similar boat (bricked my device and somehow need to flash something to have the tablet boot). Can't we just use the firmware linked in the OP? It might not be the german version but I suppose we could still flash it and just change the language or something? Anyway, that's what I'm gonna try as soon as my SD card arrives.

Is it possible, to install the english OS on a "german" tablet?
Or encounter some problems?
English itself, shouldn't be the problem.

I was wondering whether I might get some helpt flashing the "Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1". My Tablet has been bricked for some time because I (stupid as I am) tried to do a factory reset using the recovery provided by nikagl even though he specifically said that we were not to do that (I did read that warning but after a few weeks I just forgot about it :/).
Anyway, I've installed the cmw recovery by nothrills and tried to flash aforementioned firmware. I put it on an external SD card which has been formatted to FAT32. I went to the recovery menu and tried to flash the zip file. However, I got a getprop(product.name) error and the installation was aborted. After browsing the board a bit I found out that I have to delete the line starting with 'assert(getprop("ro.product.name")' which is located in META-INF\com\google\android\. But still, the tablet won't flash the firmware. It simply says "Installation aborted. Status 5 [or 6]".
I've also tried flashing the firmware by going back to stock recovery, renaming the firmware to update.zip and starting the tablet by holding the power and the minus button which is supposed to start the flashing process automatically. However, that just results in a red " ! " and an Android lying on its back.
I'd really appreciate it if someone was able to help me. (I've already sent the tablet to the Acer customer service who said that the installation of cmw recovery has damaged the motherboard. They say they will replace it for ~250€.)

Thank you for trying to help, I really appreciate it .
You have to edit line 1 of the updater-script in META-INF\com\google\android\
Delete this: in assert(getprop("ro.product.name") == "a510_emea_de");
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That is mostly what I did. Except I used winrar instead of 7zip. The first line of the updater-script was "assert(getprop("ro.product.name") == "a511_ww_gen1");" and I deleted it. When I then try to flash the file it says "E:Error in /external_sd/Acer_AV041_A511_1.011.00_WW_GEN1 - Copy.zip (Status 6)"
I also tried renaming the zip file first but the result was the same.
Edit:
As it turns out, the Status 6 error does only occur when I edit the updater-script file with wordpad. If I open it with the editor it works just fine. I was able to flash the firmware. However, the tablet then wouldn't do anything else then showing "Acer" on the screen for ever and ever and ever and ever :/.

In the case you installed a A510 ROM (without 3G) and can't flash back to the original A511 to be able to upgrade to JB and have a working 3G functionality, cause CWM vomits status 7 or 4 errors while flashing the offered .zip, try this way

[Q] Reflashing I9003

First Thanks to all of you for supporting I9003, and for helping us noobs
I have th GT-i9003 from like a year, great phone. it came with the LUBKPE stock firmware from entel in chile, and i updated it to XXKPQ following the tutorials here in XDA, also updated the kernel to [email protected] #15, i've got root cwm and a tweaks icon.
The problem is that like 2 weeks ago i installed a program called prey anti theft, after that when i try to enter CWM it just stays in a black screen same for tweaks icon, no problem with root.
So i decided to reflash my phone to get everything working fine. After a lot of reading decided to install the stock DDFL2 thats claimed to be the most stable stock rom for this phone.
1.-My first question is, i have read that i could screw up my emei doing this becouse a band incompatibility with this stock firmware (indian) and the bands used in my country (chile) is this true?? dont know if a got it wrong but thats what i understand of it.
2.-Also i read about making a backup of folders of the phone so in case of something like that happens i could recover it. So how i do this and what i need to backup??
3.- Third i read about bam kernel being better for stock firmwares, and [email protected] for customs is this true?
4.- when reflashing in the steps i read "flash KPE+pit twice", but in another forum i read of flashing KPE+pit and after that just flashing KPE (without pit) which one is the way to do it??
5.- and last, the wipe cache, clear cache and dalvik cache is done after the first boot, before i adjust my phone parameters?,or after that?, or before it first boot?? the first time id never did this but is said to be useful.
Thanks for taking the time to read my post and for ur replys.
PD: and for rooting ddfl2 is best bagaria? ddfl2-cfroot? cfroot.apk? superoneclick? Thanks!

1)As far as I know ddlf2 is universal stock rom.. it wont screw up ur imei.. Bt S.. It has been designed for indian phns.. U might lost local language supprt/app etc on ur fone.. if u face any prblms, u can easily revert back to original rom using nandroid backup..
2)Jst root ur phone with cfroot(which installs cwm as well) using odin.. Then go to recovery mode >backup & restore>nandroid backup
3)I don no vch kernel is better.. Its purely depends upon ur usage/preference.. So try every kernel on ur phone atleat one week then compare the petformance.
4) I suggest flashing kpe with 4 files twice.. it will clean off ur phone..
5) can do it whenever u wnt..

Since you are from Chile, you need the modem for your country.

Thanks for ur replyes they really helped me out.
That means that after i flash the DDFL2 rom i have to flash the Modem.tar.md5 file of the xxKPE, and with this i activate the bands of my country?
And also i have read that people with the SCL version of the phone dont need to do this, but the ones with the L version do. Thats real and how i know wich version i have? i have read of a guy that claims that his L version phone transformed into SCL... dont really know what this means.
Thanks.
