I'll be glad to help. Send me the details and I'll get it to you. I have not attempted to flash anything and my phone is only rooted. I don't believe it matters that I'm running a different launcher with widgetlocker, does it?

I just need a clean dump to work off of for dev purposes. Do u know how to dump via cygwin?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
alone,
I think you can deodex dump of the entire rom including the apps. so you will not get any error deodexing the apps separately. that what the vibrant devs are doing.
Anyone who wants to help, here's how. First you need to install adb on your PC and also install Cygwin. Set your phone to USB debugging turned on and hook your phone to PC. Make sure all your drivers are installed, if not windows will ask for them. Now open cygwin and type the following:
Adb shell
Su
dd if=/dev/block/stl9 of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs BS=4096
dd if=/dev/block/stl11 of=/sdcard/cache.rfs BS=4096
Now get those two files from your sdcard, zip them up and post to multiupload and just send me the link. Thanks to everyone for helping.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLASH WHAT YOU PULL. You have to tar it a certain way for it to work with Odin.And try to leave all the bloat if u can.

Hey guys, thought i'd like to distribute something Toastcfh and i have had for quite some time. its an Eng Spl.
now you may be asking what that is. its pretty much the most awesome dev tool ever! it enables s-off in the bootloader so you can use fastboot and other crazy stuff. so it kinda makes dev'ing easier if trying to resolve a bootloop or kernel panic. I'll give a better explanation when i get back home tonight. so without further ado, here you all go
DOWNLOAD!!!
md5sum: a77a2dee8e903e8f1a18b28b5c5e0b40
All credit goes to Maejrep and Toastcfh for getting this for us
Flash this like you would a radio or a rom.
I dont know what else to say, but LOL

Humm im on 8242010 nightly, after flashing this sprintVVM fcs. Interesting. Perhaps an APK signing issue? I'll grab a logcat then resign the apk and see what happends.
No idea why, but I rm'ed the apk from /system/app, and killed all traces of it in /cache, and /data/data. Then copied the apk manually using root explorer, set permissions and rebooted and now all is well. Probably just a fluke!

Sent from my CDMA Hero using XDA App
LMAO.
Darch can confuse people quickly.
Usually I flash whatever Darch posts but this... This scares me =P It's not like a rom or root or even a CDMA Radio where if I screw up I can RUU back to stock... Or can I -_^
Anyways, I'll probably flash this tomorrow This doesn't effect Recovery or anything else correct? I am a mobile warrior so I do my nands and flashing without a PC =)
What does this enable me to do with my phone? Like can I make a flashable zip without the signing? Or does this make it easier to customize stuff?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
This allows you to flash an ***.img file to a specific partition on your phone without making a zip. You can also make a HERCIMG.zip (a zip with multiple images in it ie, system.img, data.img, boot.img, recovery.img) and flash that straight from hboot.
Again, if you don't know what you are doing you could SERIOUSLY f*** up your phone. This gives you all the power you need to flash the wrong thing and ruin your phone. But it is VERY useful if you know what you are doing.

Okay, I had soft-bricked my phone and recovery was not working, so, after a few minutes of tech time with T-Mo they shipped me a new phone.
Even though i called them to cancel the shipment when I managed to get Odin working and get the phone back up...
Long story short - the brand spankin' new device just landed on my desk updating stock apps as I type.
KB5 stock.
Is there anyway to back this up as is before I add CWM? Can I somehow dump it with Odin? I still have not played with Odin enough to know this....
I'd like to preserve the stock rom if it all possible, for 'just in case'

That I can do, I meant something similar to a nand, the whole system backed up.
Thought it might come in handy... no worries though, grabbing the Kd1 update then I'll root/cwm and nand that... just figured since I had a virgin phone I'd back it up if I could.

Fek, sorry guys, I just got done grabbing the Kies KD1 - literally right before I rad this it finished installing.
I haven't flashed anything, this is still just the stock phone, with the T-Mo/Samsung ROM, upgaded, but not with any custom roms, on it if that will do it, I'll hold off rooting, etc until I can get the sbl and boot pulled if these will still work?
