I was asking for some mes files to see if gingerbread was being worked on. Though it isn't according to my one source at the moment. So I asked for anything else and got this. This is not a klies update pulled and packed to a odin file.
This is the full firmware that will wipe your phone to a clean slate. As in no service (Don't worry dial *228 and it will activate). This may fix a issue you keep getting that is weird or something else. This also seemed to fixed my weird going to roaming and back to normal issue.
Download link and guide here:
Also before I get a flame war. This is a leak of no other leak that I know of. Open the files and compare before jumping the gun.
How is this different from the full EE19 build that Phidelt82 already has linked in the "how to get to stock" thread?
Thanks 4 sharing.

If you're having to get defensive right off the bat, then you definitely did something wrong (i.e. taking credit for what phidelt provided us).
Edit:
Dude...Seriously?...The actual files inside the zips are IDENTICAL. You merely went in and changed the user and group name then repackaged the zip and it was compressed differently so the .zip file sizes came out just a few megs different than one another, but the actual files inside the zip and their file sizes are IDENTICAL.

...Dude come on. Who are you trying to fool here? I've seen some funky **** in my day but you just totally jacked someone else's credit for providing us with this. Even the zip file names are far, far too similar to be ignored.
phidelt's: "Mesmerize EE19 Full Froyo build.zip"
Yours: "USCC_EE19_FROYO_FULL.zip"
The wordage of the filenames are simply far too similar to be a coincidence. Come on man, what are you trying to pull?
well, I'll be the third cousin of a badger-poker. you dig a bad thing kid. stealing something that's free is like... i'm at a loss for a metaphor. you're a bum. you don't even deserve capitalization. don't return to our forums please. go back to ripping off htc users.
I didn't jack the damn file. Give me a min to post proof.
Ok first off nice try opening the same damn file that I posted and changing the name to show different. Unless he has another release in the ee-19 thread. I just downloaded it again and opened it. This is phidelt82 release on the right and mine on the left. I got this from the same person that supply's me with the ruu's for htc. Check out the merge leak and desire if you don't believe me.. See who posted them. This is what was issued to uscc. There was two files the full firmeware and update that i guess phidelt82 has. Also phidelt82 didn't release the official documentation with it did he?
First here is the screenshots:
As I said I downloaded his ee-19 on the first page of his thread and on the right is what is in it. Now he never release the official documentation with it so here is it to download and open for yourself http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16907924/Download_Instruction_Guide_USCC_SCH-I500.doc
I posted it to share if he has another release somewhere not posted on the first page off the ee-19 thread my bad. I scrolled over the pages and didn't see the thing. As I said I didn't jack **** so get your head out of your ass.

At the bottom of that post is the full build, the other package is only an update package to keep you from having to have your data cleared....
Being a fellow developer you should really do your research before making claims such as "Tweaks done not found in any other rom for the mes:" and now "This is a leak of no other leak that I know of." because phidelt has been on top of this for some time now and always provides. It's really offending to see some of these claims you make as if to say the other guys around here doing work aren't up to your standard, so you really need to start reading your statements and being more careful about what you say. I'm very disappointed in how you've handled yourself in our forum being that you were "new" on the scene and instead of joining in and getting involved like the rest of us have you just keep running off on your own making these offensive claims as if it's a competition.
As people have said multiple times, we're a close knit little group and we all share the wealth and bull**** around pretty much daily - we're open to anyone joining in and helping out and we never try to compete with one another - it's a much better atmosphere for that reason, so there really is no excuse for this kind of behavior.
Oh and btw, the "ask before you take something out of my rom" is pretty childish too, this is android man you should be happy that people are using things that you've put out there - as long as they give you credit it should be a non-issue. Did you ask google to use android? No, because it's open-source.
Comprehensive reading would be a good place to start. As I said when I asked originally, the full build is posted in the "how to get to stock" thread. So no, the update build that you wasted so much time comparing to isn't the same. No one said it was. It is however identical to Phidelt's that we are talking about. And you didn't invent the wheel by including some documentation that no one cares about. Step off your throne.
I wasn't aware he had the full fw package up. So that is my fault it still doesn't mean that I jacked his **** now does it?

No, but since you leaped and stated the things you did it sure sounded like you were claiming his work as yours - do you really blame them? Let this be a lesson that you should get all your eggs in your basket before you assume that others don't know what's going on around here. Dfgas already told you that he had a full build, AND gave you a link - yet you still posted this? This all could have been avoided had you just spoke to one of us first....I suggest you not continue this and just take it as lesson learned.
Gas never told me he had the full fw up and never gave me the link. So not sure where that info came from. I also don't need to ask someone to post something that was leaked to myself.
"Leaked"? It was leaked to phidelt82 2 months before USC dropped it, so the point of you getting it from some source is really moot at this point, being that we've had it for months now and it's "official" too. Gas just told me he did, and I trust his word over yours given your current track record here. You're obviously missing the point, so at this point I'm done and have said all I have to say. Good luck man.
Your full of ****. I told him that it was leaked to me and he never said a damn thing that I got. If he did tell him to post the log and then I will believe he told me. Last I checked I can share what ever I want on these forums. But you guys keep acting like you run them which baffles me. As I said I posted to share.
Yet I get called out for stealing something I didn't. In which you guys can't prove it either. The reason I posted the documentation that was issued to uscc to install this to show I didn't steal it.

How am I full of **** for something someone told me? I'm just reporting what dfgas told me, so if you want to make an accusation go to the source.
Just to recap, since you didn't follow the first time, my whole point here is that you shouldn't make claims (especially in the elitist tone that you choose to use) before doing your research and making sure your ducks are in a row. You said here that is was a leak unlike any other, when in fact it is the same firmware we've had for several months thanks to our wonderful dev phidelt82, regardless of whether you got it now from a different source - that isn't the point I'm trying to make.

Just to confirm for you and everyone else, YOU DID NOT STEAL ANYTHING FROM ME AND I KNOW THIS... The package is just the exact same package given to the store technicians that I got several weeks ago. My source in Samsung gets me stuff about the time the lab gets it at USCC. I work for USCC so I get to compare it with what they get shortly after to compare notes. Daewon Cho is the original packager for us on this particular package. I repackaged it myself so as to not leave this trail. We don't need another Cellular South on our hands, not to mention I like my job, and I don't need them thinking that I'm doing anything improper.
Everyone just chill out and back off. What matters is that 2fast4u88 is trying to help the community by bringing this to us. He just happened to bring something that was already here and didn't know it.
I know we have talked about ee19 before, if I didn't give you the link then maybe I didn't but its the fact that there is a stickied thread that Files to get your Mesmerize back to stock 2.1 and 2.2.1 and when you scroll down to here:

You could have saved yourself all this hate if you did your homework. Don't waste a thread on here post the same **** that is already on here.
If this wasn't a copy from phidelt and you got from someone else it doesn't matter, they are all the same exact files because its what they all use. I am not accusing of you of just kanging his odin flash and repacking, but what I am accusing you of is posting **** that is already here. Research before you post, its that simple.

Thanks for at least being understanding. In which I didn't know. Along with also it seems they would more believe you than myself. As everyone blew it out of proportion. Where everyone that has so far can know they were in the wrong. I am guessing the file came from the same place you are at as I have gotten leaked files that everyone said didn't exist. I actually wasn't aware the packager was the real person where also as you can tell from the screenshots it doesn't exactly show the maker.
So for the one that had to call me out an post the big ass screen shots. Would you please remove them. And I will pull the file since it is already posted. Then I will have a admin pull the thread.
Also bd I should clarify I actually said it wrong because the whole deal is bull****. Gas has removed himself from my contact list why I have no idea. Could take a guess but I don't really care. I asked him yesterday if he still had issues with ee-19 that I was leaked the files for the full firmware. I can't remember now if he said the following in two reply's or one. Where he might have said that but I don't remember him saying it right off my head.
He said something along the lines of the only issue is data on mtd roms. I then said if I am remember right that I was given the full firmware. Where he didn't say anything in return at all that I am aware. I was building source code and talking to more than just him so I might have that a little backwards. But I am sure he never told me it was posted. Which means he is full of **** or I didn't get it. Which I may not have as my electric did go out and I rebooted a few times yesterday due to 11.04 have usb flaking out issues with my hardware.
Though at the time I posted this till I replied back in here I never received a thing as I left everything on over night. As for language or w/e I know this and is the internet, not everyone has to go through every post and make sure it is perfect. Hell I don't have the time to deal with a ***** fest, answer ?'s, do my job, and try to build things on the side.. I also am typing this while trying to multitask so take it easy.
uh huh, full of **** eyh?
Is the only thing that we owners of locked devices is wait for a leaked key, or is there something else i can do to try to support people that could get it working? i love my tf but am sad i cant get root to the point where i almost want to return it ><
I'd go to stores around you, look for a B70KAS15 or below (to be safe...i believe the consensus is that lower B70KAS devices can root), and once you find one, return your old one.
From what i understand, there are a few people working on a way around this (or they have the new SBK--but even with the new one, they've made it harder to use).
All in all,you'll have to decide if you want to risk waiting (there's always small chance something could go awry, right?).
I see nothing wrong with going to look around and find if you can find an older B70, or anything like that.
Unrooting B70/B80 is a work in progress, check androidroot.mobi
But if I were you, I'd look for a TF with B50 or B60, then you can root your tab for sure (I did the same and was able to get a B50. A friend of mine got a B70 which can't be rooted yet).
I bought via amazon, i dont really want to return it to pay more local+tax for a maybe :/
Im new to this group of devs, how reliable is it to expect those guys at androidroot.mobi to come through and not can it haflway through? just to be clear, this question is in no way meant to be deragotive towards those guys, i just know some devs disappear (which is totally cool) and some stick around forever.

Got one on eBay a couple of minutes ago. See you guys on the other side . Thanks for the replies.
Sweet can't wait to see what you can do with this phone!
If you don't mind me asking, how much was it on eBay?
I currently have a MT3GS I bought from Craigslist awhile back - got a pretty good deal from someone who decided he'd rather have an iphone, it came with the original box and all the stuff.
Been debating on whether it was worth an update to a 4GS.

I've been one of the ones to dive in headfirst around here so i'll help as I can.
This week, and next, are gonna be real tight on time for me. I still have a few threads around here I have to update...and just can't get more then a few minutes in front of a terminal at a time.
When I get the chance to update my threads, I can sit here and have the phone installing (or whatever) while I do.
Glad to see another dev jumping into the pool here with the MT4GS - it's a sick piece of hardware.
Your list has made it incredibly easy to list out all the apps (I usually have to go through them one by one and try and figure everything out, usually takes 1-2 hours per phone )
Anyways, I can't test it as I don't have the phone yet but Bloater should be setup for it. At least for the apps and stuff. I'll have to add WiFi calling later.
Test it out and let me know what works and what doesn't. I tried not to include anything I wasn't sure about or anything that could be potentially harmful to remove.
If it doesn't recognize something as installed or uninstalled it just means my MD5s mismatch what it was expecting, easy fix.
Install it as a normal APK

Are any of you guys familiar with IRC? This may be easier to do everything there instead of posting back and fourth.
We could try #mt4gs @ freenode
Other than that, I may have my statusbar mods ported today. Just need to fix the resource IDs up I think. I'll need to have someone test.
I'm using Paul's deodex as a base for now since I couldn't find an RUU. So if anyone is running that, you'll just have to flash two files over to test if this works or not .

I've been sending email requests for the kernel sources of the 1.4 V.I.A and OTA 1.5. They told me that they respect copyright rules,so i have a feeling that they will dish out the files to anyone who has time to stay on the phone with them.
update on source code
I have been in contact with vizio for the past few days or so. The bottom line is: in order to get kernel source code for V.I.A plus, you need to contact vizio legal affairs. cant seem to find the address around here, but you need to send a written request to them. The problem for me is this: I HATE SNAIL MAIL. I havent sent a letter in years so maybe someone else could? If you want, PM me and I will draft up a message for you. Maybe i'll get around to it.

I've been waiting on the sidelines, hoping for root before I got my tablet but my family all chipped in and I got mine for my birthday (May 20th).
I've asked a friend if he'd be interested in attempting to root the newest Honeycomb release. I'm waiting for a response from him but while I was showing it to him he made the comment, "are you rooted? It shouldn't be that difficult." He's a programmer with linux experience and since there doesn't seem to be any legit developer working on root, maybe his expertise is what we need.
If he shows interest in the project, we'll need to get him a vtab to work on. I can start a kickstarter for the ~$200 necessary.
This is all contingent on his interest in the project. I'll let you guys know.
Is there still a want/need for this? Will you be willing to donate to the cause?
I spoke with my dev. He's interested but just doesn't have the time. He's full-time employed. However, I have decided to return my vtab because of the major HDMI out issue. If you don't know, the vtab will not output to many tv's, I think because it outputs in 768 and not 720 so many televisions do not know how to handle this. I'm going to be getting the Acer Iconia a500 which has multiple dev's support already and many roms available. I wish everyone who's decided to stick it out, good luck and I hope you get root soon.

No, it is not. And while I can't speak too much about it, it's not just a side-load onto any device. So don't be holding your breath about someone uploading the APK and getting all the features running this week.
right....because it sooo hard to make rudimentary changes to a launcher.
The APK is called Dashboard.apk. It resides in /system/app and can be launched as a normal app.

You're the one going around posting false information. And asking for a system dump is not "demanding a bunch of stuff".
If you want to get into a pissing match about who's done more to help the XDA community, you're gonna lose. I've done alot more than post some roms for the EVO 3D. If anyone's a troll here its you.
And 20x more people have found my comments helpful. So you're still trolling. What false info have I given?
Unlike you i'm not a thanks whore, and the thanks meter wasn't even implemented when I started posting on XDA. I have released numerous firmware images and sbf files that would otherwise have not been obtainable, saving countless devices in the process(See the technician only Xoom recovery file that was the only way to restore a bricked Xoom for months after release). That's a little more important to me than some likes.
Oh and False info? You just said not a few moments ago it runs like a normal app.
Now now boys, calm down.
I must admit I am on legions side on most of his points so far. This is a community forum for the general public and what we do here is Share and Mod. I do believe "agrabren" that as you are part of the Nvidia team you don't want to see parts of your product ported and such, but the product is now in the hands of the user and so now it is up to us what we do with our purchases.

It didn't occur to me that I might need to explain that in more detail, but in hind-sight, it does need clarification. What I mean, and meant from the beginning, is that the framework doesn't issue any "magic" to launch that app. There's no special "back-door" entry into that APK which makes it work on the device, nor is the Intent anyway modified. My natural instinct is to distrust every aspect of a system app that doesn't sideload correctly. In this case, I gave extra insight into areas of attack on getting the APK to load on other devices by eliminating one method a company could use for an app that has a special method of launch (the center button on the device).
So my statement, properly clarified, is that the APK itself has nothing special about it in regards to Intent launching or its AndroidManifest.xml, but that without some efforts with other components, will not run directly on another device, especially one based on a non-Tegra device.

Great, except I've actually been trying to help most people with most parts of ROM sharing and modding. I've already said that I'm going to post the OTA1 system and boot images, in their official entirety, as well as I'll probably post a rooted version as well. I've been helping people prevent bricking their devices.
If you'd rather I just go away, I'm happy to. But I wouldn't expect anyone else from NVIDIA to be reaching out to get CM10.2 up and running on this device, or to get a custom recovery up and running quickly. I've never objected to him getting the system image, I'm all for it being uploaded and even promised to do so. I'm trying to help clarify what will work easily and what won't. I even answered the question that nobody else had, the APK he's asking for (because he didn't know the name of it) is Dashboard.apk, and it resides in /system/app. His contributions right now to the SHIELD forums on XDA are: Give me the system image, give me some APKs that may be on the device! That rubs me the wrong way as a person who has spent plenty of time developing ROMs for different phones, helping fix kernels for multiple CM-supported devices, and who has *always* fought for companies to give to the community. Unlockable bootloader? Yeah, I was part of that push. I'm trying my best to get as much source as possible made public.
Maybe I came off poorly in this thread (because this was after the thread asking for an apk that has only been demoed at tradeshows and special press meetings). So I'm sorry if I came off wrong, but while everyone else is helping each other out, he's just demanding stuff.
I what world do you live in that posting a thread asking for a system image and a possibly pre-loaded app qualifies as "demanding stuff"? Why should I have to have done anything to be worthy of your approval to post such a thread?
There is a huge conflict of interest with you both working for Nvidia and unofficially releasing official firmware and hacks, so frankly no, I don't trust you being involved in this devices xda development.

So a guy who doesn't own the device is not going to trust ROMs I make for a device he doesn't own. Oops, no loss to me. You can go back to trolling, I'm done with your thread. You have your system image and boot image in either manner you want it.
Oops, my bad. It wasn't your thread, you just came into this thread to troll me. My mistake.
Raptor, if you check in the Android Development section, you'll find the system images. I'd suggest the ZIP version, because it's both smaller and already extracted. The system.img is an uncompress image to be flashed via fastboot in case someone messes up their system or boot partitions.
