Thought I'd better post this before everyone flashes these sbfs and looses downgradability (is that a word?)
So as you may have worked out this process is if you have never flashed a non downgradable .sbf i.e you have never flashed 2.51 eclair or the 2.2 GB/US 2.2 froyo. If you flashed these then this won't work for you and youve lost downgrability.
Follow the process below, This works with the TMobile US and The GB 3.4.2 Firmwares.
It may seem long winded, but it is the only way to get it running with everything working ok and still downgradable/able to flash other .sbf, most notably the cam flash working 100% - fully sync'd and no greeny blue tinge to it.
Need the Chinese 2.2 release – Download Here
Need the system.img nandroid and boot/devtree.sbf – Download here
Also now added the GB system image+md5 - the one that racca added in the original thread. Download hear
• Flash the Chinese .sbf by RSD lite
• Once booted root via superoneclick http://bit.ly/gUzV19 then reboot (make site debugging on)
• Install Clockworkmod recovery app http://bit.ly/dOdhKc , open app, install recovery and then boot into recovery (make sure debugging is off whenever you boot into recovery
• Wipe data/cache in recovery
• Flash the Tmob 3.42 system image(pre rooted) via advanced restore (folder need to be put in goapkrev/backup folder)
• Once restored pull battery, put battery back in while holding up to get into bootloader
• Flash the boot/devtree.sbf once its rebooted after this you are done.
If you want to use the GB release then just restore the system.img from the GB release.
Enjoy and don't get locked in peoples.
Thanks to adlx whom I enjoyed working with to figure this out - team effort! +as always Sorensiim for the hosting!
I don't think you actually need to flash anything other than boot/devtree.
I tried TMO with uk2.51 and it was just fine.
And if someone followed your post exactly as it is now. Chances are they'd
get their phone bricked (since many are already on 2.51).
Easy to fix for sure, but since it is most likely meant for less experienced
users, we really don't want that, right?
BTW
Thanks for writing it up.
Quick question for you Higgsy...
On one of the original T-Mobile Froyo threads, you posted update files to bypass the Motoblur Setup ("Skip_Blur_adlx-signed" worked fantastically...much thanks!).
Are those modifications included in these posted files already?
EDIT: Went ahead and tried it both with and without the update. Answer is that you cannot skip Moto Setup with this install; however, the Skip_Blue_adlx-signed update will allow you to if the update is applied before leaving recovery.
EDIT: Credit goes to adlx, as it was his file (mis-remembered...should have known better from the file name though). Using Higgsy's instructions and links and adlx's update, I now have a working working US 3.42 with the Motoblur setup bypassed. Thanks to all those who made that possible.
sorry to bother, but as I am now having the green light problem after flashing the "flash fix" several weeks ago, can I get the normal flash back using this method?
and thank you for your work....

No you can't. Nandroid backup and/or SBF won't do anything on that front.
As I am on the UK sbf, this will not be of much use to me. Thankfully, I have no issues with that sbf, so I do not need this.
That said, thank you from those who do.

what do you mean by "on that front"?
means that fix package consists some fundamental codes that had thoroughly change the hardware control? and nandroid backup as well as SBF could not overwrite that part?
Forgot to put in the post this is if you have not flashed a non downgradable .sbf before, although I would have thought people would be able to work that out by the nature of the thread.
This will work and will fix you cam flash if you are coming from 2.21+2.35 Eclair ROMs or 2.2 Chinese ROM where you haven't flashed a non downgradable .sbf

I never posted that! and I never used that fix! On the US 3.4.2 you can't skip setup, on the GB 3.4.2 you can skip set up.

I think I did post this Skip_Blur_adlx-signed, as I'm adlx lol (although I'm registred here as adlxdum). And yes, it has to be flashed RIEGHT AFTER restoring the nandroid, as I stated. (I can't find the post...)

My advice to anyone when something new comes out (not that its any consolation I'm sorry) is to sit back and watch how things pan out, rather than jumping in.

man, it is astonishing to see that it does fix, it seems that the green light indeed could be fix. but how?
is it only can be done by your operation procedure, or some independent files could be ported and flashed to fix?
Thanks a lot Higgsy. I'll try your turorial. Could I translate your topic to put it on a French forum ? (i'll put a link to the original thread)
After getting request's to post this on its own thread... here's the stock, rooted & deodex'd rom that has been fixed... Superuser, HTC_IME FC's, and the updater script!
Dev's, use this as a base for your roms... If you are new to emmc partitions and updater scripts you can use this as a reference on how to properly mount, unmount and format partitions within the script. If you have anymore questions please post them on the 'Developers reference' thread located in this forum.
This rom is not going to be maintained, however i more than likely will update it as new OTA's rollout. Please only post rom development related items in this thread.
Stock--Rooted, deodexed 1.17.651.1 base rom!
thanks for this
I only wanted to add that as this is the base ROM that seemingly will be used to base other ROMS of off, that the VVM part of this ROM is broken. Uninstalling the package will not work, nor will updating to the latest version. Having to resort to Google VM.....
Not bashing by any means, just wanted to let you know, so maybe this can be fixed before it spreads to more ROMS as they are built. Only thing I found, OH, and the ROM is not R/W by default, seems its Read only.... easily fixed.
is there a reason why i get a stuts 7 error when flashing this?

I flashed the rom to see what u were talking about... after updating VVM, it's working perfectly fine. Make sure you're on mobile network as it seems to not want to update via wifi.
As long as im correctly understanding you.... i don't know any rom that mounts file systems rw by default. You have to manually mount them via adb shell, or adb remount.. or a root app.

Shouldn't be any reason, best way to help is to use these commands using adb shell right after you receive an error in recovery.
Code:
adb shell
cat /tmp/recovery.log
I have only flashed this rom using ClockworkMod 3.0, so i cannot say 100% that it works on 2.5... but so far it looks like you're the only one with an issue.
FYI: There's a guide posted on how to use ADB in this forum.

On mobile network... :-( Flashed the ROM x2 and what I get (Over network) is a continual "Verifying your account information" when opening VMM V. T.5.1.0.48, until it times out. Then when I select settings for it, at the top its greyed out and continues to say "Please wait, verifying ......".
When I press the button to "Check for update", it says "General Failure. Please try again at a later time."
Anything I'm missing>? I have re-downloaded the ROM, as well as re-flashed 2 x to the same conclusion....
Thanks in Advance Prelude......

Cybernook, sprint may be having issues where you are. I just tested it and mine updated, tho it took a reboot and had to make sure BT and WIFI were off.
After installing the rom I did the "update prl" and "update profile".
been using this rom ever since posted
no issues
works great
Apologies to you Prelude. I called sprint yesterday and they informed me they had been having VVM issue for 2 days (Up until my call). All is updated and working fine today!
Flash on........
I installed this rom but I can't get adfree to install new host updates

Actually I gave up on this rom for now.
For some reason the hosts file in etc/ or system/etc is a 0 file.
and will not read copy or move for nothing with root explorer or titanium.
Weird.
Thanks a lot anyway
the link to the rom is broken, gives a 404 not found error. can u pls repost, because im trying any and everything to get my phone up and running back on sprints network.
thanks
Any chance of a new base for the latest release?

Are you looking for the RUU , or this particular Stock Rooted Rom? If you cannot find a link you could just pull the Rom from the RUU. Then run it through the Kitchen.

P.S: Non-rooted GB ROM also showing the same symptoms, not that the rooted ROM has anything to do with it, just mentioning.

KF2 Update
Updated to KF2 and there seems to be a couple fixes including the bluetooth crash fix.
One issue found both in KF1 and KF2
Connect a regular headset to SGS4G phone and the inbuilt microphone gets disabled, the other party can’t hear you talking at all. Ideally, the phone microphone should be enabled if it detects a regular 3.5mm stereo jack. And it should disable the microphone only when it detects the handsfree with microphone. It should be able to do this. Froyo didn’t have this problem. This is an injected defect in Gingerbread.
No call logs

Try the VUVKF2 ROM - some fixes from KF1 and the call log issue sure looks like it is fixed
Also FYI,,, the music playing when i remove/plugin the headphone glitch has also been removed....
Running the VUVKF1 gingerbread rom and the call logs are fine. Didn't notice that the bluetooth button in the notification bar caused FC until brought up lol.
Where do i get it?
Is there stable KF2 Firmware that i can use ?
And where can i get it ?
The one that i use is from samfirmware.com
It says that it is a T-Mobile FW.
Can some one point me to a KF2 FW that is from T-Mobile?
Also is there a way to go back (Just in case) to Froyo 2.2.1 that i had before ?
Thanks Guys!

There is a stable KF2 from Tmobile( more stable than KF1). Here is the link below.
Leaked KF2 ROM with all bloatware from T-Mobile

The procedure you have to follow to root is here,
(but download the KF2 ROM package from the 1st link)

Finally to root KF2, use the zimage-root-patch from this link

Follow everything to the letter from link 1 and you should be all fine.

Yes, You can just flash the ROM with ODIN, exactly like you did for KF1, except for the bootloader part, which will NOT be present. KF1 bootloaders are just fine. Just keep in mind that to get to the download mode is a little different because GB has a changed key sequences Refer to the link that I posted earlier if you face problems getting into download mode.
There are 2 files in the rar, one is the rom and the other is DLL
I am not quite sure which package you picked up, if you downloaded from the link I posted, you would be getting a *.tar.md5 file which you would be 'ODIN'ing like you did for KF1.
So how do i use this exactly, what options should i check in odin?
Exactly like you did for KF1.
I have the KF1 installed, if that helps.
Personally, I prefer heimdall, because you know what exactly you are flashing because you are selecting it manually each time ( like modem, cache, zimage, etc etc)
Again, the SGS4G BIBLE is the perfect thing for you to start. ODIN or HIEMDALL - it describes you how to go about it.

Ok, here it goes, the SS_DL.dll is useless, as far as I know. You can ignore it. And you can procede with the flash using the other file *.tar.md5 . And follow the instructions provided in the link that you followed earlier to flash KF1. That should get you going. Hope it helps.

I am sorry to noob like this, but those links were instructions to use some update.zip and to root.
I just need an instruction to flash it with ODIN.
Should be simple instruction : select this and that and click start.
I already know how to go to download mode and everything ...
Just the options in ODIN.
Do i select this file as Bootloader or Phone ?
I have now the KF1 does t mean that it wil use bootloader of KF1 or do i get new one here?
Why sometimes its several files and sometimes its just one?
Thanks, i hope that i am not getting on your nerves, but you WILL help me i know!
I used Sunshine, got root and S-Off, flashed a wireless tether zip. Right after, 4G speeds plummeted and no websites would load. Saw the closest to going back was to RUU, couldn't get it to open the file (even in the SDK folder after I downloaded and installed all files). Finally flashed another ROM and wiped everything from my phone.
Still 99% of webpages won't load on 4G. If they do, it takes forever. Not sure if it's anything I did, but just wanted to ask before it turns out to be some huge coincidence with Verizon. Thanks for any help.

Flash CleanROM. It's just like stock only better: debloated and tweaked, tethering enabled and more...
Thanks for the reply.
The wireless tether zip I flashed was: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708548
The ROM I'm currently on is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2716306
- Nothing wrong with it, just don't like the stock look and loading webpages is still not working.
I have fastboot drivers and adb as well as the SDK toolbox on my PC. I've been able to do most things following guides and posts here, but I can't RUU. When I flashboot flash zip 0P6BIMG.zip it gives error: cannot open 0P6BIMG.zip. I guess I could buy an external SD card and reader, but was hoping to fix this tonight/tomorrow.
Trying to download CleanROM for the 5th time tonight. The download stops around 300-400MB and there's no other mirrors for it. Currently at 700MB, maybe this download will go through (on PC). I'm really just trying to fix my webpage issue and go back to stock (or CleanROM is fine if it's similar). I'm willing to even donate a little to someone.

I'm really just trying to fix my webpage issue and go back to stock (or CleanROM is fine if it's similar). I'm willing to even donate a little to someone.

Scott's site is not mobile friendly, but he just put up a DevHost mirror:

The download actually finished, I even checked the MD5 of my download vs. on his site, matched. Wiped and flashed it, got dialer.apk stopped working, hit ok, popped up again, hit ok, phone bootlooped with 3 colored android lights on screen. Rebooted manually, same error, then something like phone.apk or android.google.something stopped working, hit ok, boot loop again. Pretty much have no clue at this point.

That sounds as if you dirty flashed CleanROM over the GPE.
Did you wipe cache, Dalvik and data before flashing CleanROM?
If not, do it and reflash the rom.
I may have messed it up, it was late last night. I have TWRP on it after following guides since I somehow lost the OS while trying to RUU different ways. Can anyone confirm everything I need to wipe so that I can flash CleanRom without wiping it from my internal storage? Don't have an external SD card and it won't sideload for some reason (I get error: cannot open romname.zip).
Edit: That worked. Except now it says CleanROM 1.3 in my settings lol and I swear I downloaded 1.4, since it was from the developer's site directly.
You do not need to flash a tether zip on that ROM or any other custom ROM

You're right. At the time I just wanted to add tethering and not change anything or flash any ROMs. Beyond that point now lol. CleanROM looks fine and is working well, it just says 1.3 in settings when I know I downloaded 1.4 from the OP's site last night.

It's a typo. ?
Scrosler provided a zip to change the version number. I believe it's in post 2

You are correct and thank you for the kind reply, unlike another in that topic who took the same amount of time to be rude for no reason. Thanks to all for their help, looking good now and working good, and extra features to boot.
Has anyone successfully flashed the new Cyanogenmod Update on the GS5 from Virgin Mobile? I have been unable to get it to work. The updater script wont let me flash, and even when I delete the first section, the installation is still aborted. Any suggestions?
Pastebin me the updater script and the error you get trying to flash.

I don't get an error. It just says "Installation Aborted"
Weird, would you mind sending me the zip? I'll look at it for you If you can't get it working, try re-downloading, if not I'll start putting out my own nightlies ONLY for kltespr.

Link for the rom^ (add the period where the space is)
sorry, i'm a new user and i can't post a link or a file above 20mb on the forum
All I did to it was delete the first couple of lines off the updater_script to where the first word was "mount".
Thanks!

I downloaded that and it still will not flash. It says I have KLTE and not KLTESPR. Sprint roms work with virgin roms though, but the flash still fails.

The zip you sent has another folder called Rom in the root I'll fix it and send it back to you, next time when you make the zip don't zip the folder, zip the system, meta whatever, and data inside of the folder, zip all of those.

Good news and bad news, I was successfully able to flash CM11 on the S5, but now the APN Settings are messed up, and I cant get data or send MMS.

I had the same thing, (YOU SHOULD TRY PAC ROM IN THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT PAGE, MORE FEATURES cx) mess around with the settings, try flashing a modem, take your sim card out and back in, airplane mode and back, odin flash, dunno what else.
Is there a way to just flash cm11? Thats about the extent of my knowledge
It would be great if someone could edit them for the rest of us and post them.

what recovery did you use? I flashed using modified TWRP and data and mms work fine..
Does anybody else have "pay with my Verizon wireless account" as a payment option on play store?? I'm on sprint. It shouldn't say that. It doesn't work but it annoys me being there
