[Q] ICBINB by ACID - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

I was looking around the Forum and I found Team ACID's ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15419687#post15419687
and I wanted to try that out for my Galaxy S 4G.
Right now I flashed my phone today to KC1 Stock+Root Froyo.
And before I do anything. Could someone tell me what Bali rom is? That's what it says that's included in the rom. Bali 3.1.
If I do flash it, if I get tired of it, will I be able to reflash back to the KC1 Stock+Root Froyo?

You should be able to flash back via odin...
I'm pretty sure it's 3.1 but you can flash whatever version you want
**Edit... Just read post, it has 3.3

You can always flash back to stock with ODIN if you don't like a ROM.
Bali is not the ROM, it's the Kernel. If the ROM is like a particular model car, the kernel is like the engine. Some car models have more than one engine you can get in them.
ROMs can have different kernels powering them (but they look the same otherwise).

hmmmm. I like your insight

I like to try and make analogies like that, so they are easy to understand

[Req] flashable eh09 themes for stock ROM

Title says it. On eh09 ROM want to find flashable themes or links to them. Anyone know of any?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Wont be able too. Sorry. The ROM generally has be deodexed in order for a theme to work. Stock ROMs aren't in a state that can be themed. If you want to have a theme I would suggest finding a stock deodexed ROM that has themes for it.
This is based on how things have always been. To the best of my knowledge it is still the case.
You've been a lot of help man. I'm super3devo from rootzwiki. I've had problems on other tons with my radio not being recognized. I found a version from.August of cm7 fixed for eh09. I'm worried of I flash it I may lose radio again. Currently I'm on stock eh09 rooted per your flashable zip that u linked to in another thread. Then I have red cwm. I have a decent voodoo kernel that's been good on battery. Just trying to talk myself into flashing cm7. Question though if I flash cm7 and things go bad can I restore a nandroid of eh09 or will the ext4 conversion break that? Leaving me with a need for a full odin repartition and flash back to eh09?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Well the CM7 for EH09 works just fine. And honestly its not too much different than the CM7.1 as far as features go. But if you want to stay on something that is fully functional try out Resurrection or Awesome Sauce. Both are Touchwiz based and have everything working. I personally love the resurrection ROM and would be running it now if I didn't like CM7 so much.

Also anytime you flash any sort of MTD ROM you generally have to Odin back to stock. What I would do is make a backup of you're current ROM. Then if you want to go back Odin back to DI14 with repartition checked. Then Odin EH09 without repartition checked. Then you could restore your backup.
Are u thinking like me that any ROM dependant on the eh09 radio would work?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Yeah. I don't see a reason why it wouldn't since that's the radio you have the best luck with.
Currently downloading eh09 heinz57. The one with tw4.5 and all that. Then ill use tks kernel. Wish me luck LOL. Hope I don't kill the radio again, ill have to wait till tomorrow when I have a chance to get to a computer with odin and all my files on it. Hopeing it goes well and works.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
well no matter what rom u flash you'll have to flash the EH09 update first to get the newest radio and boot, but once u do that the sky is the limit...I used to use heinz57 and liked it a lot but a couple months i switched to using MIUI and haven't looked back since...if you like the speed of cm but want some of the mods like heinz has u should head on over to www.miui.us and check it out, i can't say enough good things about it.

Upgrading from froyo/trigger, do I need to flash kc1/kd1 for gb rom

I got sgs4g rooted and installed trigger rom on it and upgraded to bali kernel. I would like to upgrade to gingerbread rom stock that samsung released 2.3.5 and also try a custom gb rom after. Ive been reading a lot and my only question is all posts here say from froyo use one of the two gb roms with bootloaders, to flash gingerbread, then flash back to kc1 or kd1 so I can run cwm and flash gingerbread again. then im set. The samsung release does not state from froyo to do anything else.but flash gingerbread from odin and yer done. So would just odining the gb rom from samfirmware.com just be it? Or would I need to flash ones with boot loaders firat and back to kd1? Or is back to kd1 just for flashing gb rom from cwm which I currently have on cwm. I just want to know if.i should do the bootloader flashing of kc1/kd1 from trigger froyo rooted cwm to get to gingerbread stock or gb rom like octaine or audiophile. Please anyone ? Ive read everything and know the procedure just wondering about if flashong bootloaders... How ppl with straight stock w/o rooy would know to do extra steps or not. Thanks

You're confusing yourself and me. Go the the development section & look for The GB Starter guide by fbis251. Sure, painless, fast way to get on gingerbread.

If u get a loop..which happened to me hit three button recovery and factory reset...u should be good, then kj1 kernel from drhonk to root...if u wish.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I will do the kj1 kernel. I did update through keis. Phone calls have no sound unless I press speaker twice, anyone ?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I getting confused by your post. But from what I'm getting, I think you want to know how to downgrade so you can upgrade to KJ6 on Kies. Odin or CWN down to KB5 or KD1 then connect to Kies. Downgrading to KD1 didn't work for me, but downgrading to KB5 did.
Then use SOC 2.2 to root your phone, will hang and fail the first time but will root the second time. As for CWN, you can use dr. hong KJ1 custom kernel but that will downgrade your kernel down to KJ1 from KJ6. If you want KJ6 kernel with CWN, wait for dr. honk.

[Q] Samsung Infuse

I just got my new phone and i am ready to install custom roms. I am coming from a Captivate. I've been read and searching about how to install roms. After reading and search i have a few questions.
I am currently at stock UCKH1 2.2.1 FROYO. I would like to update to Gingerbread. it seems as there is some Gingerbread ROMS, but no Gingerbread bootloaders? Do i need Gingerbread bootloaders to intall the custom roms in the Samsung Infuse Dev section?
I've read that some Gingerbread roms are not root able, but then read that they are? After looking at some of the ROMS some state that they are rooted.
I've read that i will lose CWM after flashing Gingerbread as well, how would i get CWM back after installing MitRa Rom?
Maybe i am totally confused i do have a simple mind, but if some one has a little time can you explain these issues to me please.
Thanks,
TA

I just came from a captivate. The infuse is a lot easier to flash roms. If you are on stock Froyo, download any gingerbread leak and flash it using odin. Download entropys kernel and flash it with odin. Entropys kernel has cwm. Its a little different from the captivate but it really don't take long to get used to.

The only kernel i found that's entropys kernel is this one.

Looking for best Rom, Kernel and whatever. Priority Audio quality and stability

Hi,
Please don't burn me about a new post I've done a lot of phone research to get to the Infuse. The options for an "android development newb" are many. And not sure what a kernel and Rom is...Rom is the operating system right?
Basically looking for a stable/best operating system with priority in audio quality for headphones.
Ive read abit about the Voodoo for the wolfson chip in the Infuse. Read about a leaked version of Android 2.3.5 available but it may have some 'rainbow' effect?..
Basically trying to find the best rom, kernel and whatever, their are so many.
Thanks.
EDIT: Looking to use 'Voodoo control plus' app and 'Voodoo Screen Tuning' app so need compatible rom & kernel.
It really is going to be personal preference all the roms I have tried are pretty damn stable I have seen people really liking caty rom though prob try that first
Other popular one I used to see in google searches was MIUI, infused might be good, is it closer to stock ROM? Stock roms are probably safer ie not losing BT?
Interested in this [KERNEL]Community Kernel v8 - (7/17/11) - Voodoo sound v10
Catyrom and numas are infuse stock based roms like infused....everything works
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Miui and cm7 are not...they are aosp roms and have issues with bluetooth working..

samfirmware I997UCKI4 - Anything better/newer than this? No rainbow effect?
Did AT&T ever release official Gingerbread version?
UCKI4 is way old....we are up to UCKL2
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
So is ROM I997UCKL2 [2.3.6] stock, reliable, likely to work with apps?
EDIT want a good stock app not one messed with (not insult) Messed with could be improvement.
Umm yes...its stock infuse rom

Going from this download list; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1293751
"ROM" in the download title indicates it's stock (from Samsung or AT&T) & the one that says ie "Stock UCKJ4 [Rooted, Deodexed, Busybox] [2.3.6]" is the stock rom with things done to it like rooted??
Is video fine on KL2?

Video only works with that rom if you have the correct kernel I do believe.
I would suggest going here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092021 and downloading the one with 3e recovery. That enables access to modifications such as voodoo control, while maintaining a stable stock environment. The simplest voodoo kernel you can use is the voodoo community kernel, which can be found in the infuse super thread under the android development section of this forum.
Hope this helps!
I am also new to the Infuse. I had the AT&T Captivate that I was able to flash to Rogers 2.2 and it was great. Rogers allows more control of the phone and was very stable. I then got greedy and tried to flash a Rogers GB rom and bricked my phone. I read that the Infused rom is based on Rogers but it seems to have some bugs.

No bugs in Infused. The Rogers firmware doesn't have HDMI support, because the Rogers phone doesn't have HDMI out. Other than that, Infused is the best stock ROM for this phone. Once AT&T releases GB, we'll probably get another update, but there's no bugs. If you flashed an Infuse ROM on a Captivate, well... there's your problem. I can't tell from your post if that's what happened or not.

I disagree that the infused is the best ROM. Its a good ROM, but IMO CatyRom or Numas, are better. I ran infused for a long time as well as a lot of Ports. The Ports are fun, lots of customization and bells and whistles, but the 2 I mention as well as the infused are the best for what you're looking for I think.
Infused is outdated though.
I prefer these because they are native to infuse.
I suggest
1) CatyRom
2) Numas
3) Infused v2.3.3
The ICS version of Caty has a MIUI music player that is awesome. Also there is a free app called audio FX that I use for an eq and its great.

Might try Catyrom, but probably will one of the latest leaks "ROM I997UCKL2 [2.3.6]" or "UCKL2[Rooted, Deodexed, Busybox, and CRT off]" I'm led to believe theyr both stock.
If I go with first UCKL2 I will need to root it to run the voodoo apps. If I root it will I lose video and HDMI? If so how do you fix it? Would I be better to go with the latter UCKL2 (already rooted)?
Note I may be upgrading from froyo (I havent got the phone yet).
Also not sure on the flashing procedure, I found this; any good or bit outdated? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318160

No it was a Captivate 2.2 rom. But then I tried to flash a Captivate GB rom from Rogers Can you give me advise on flashing the Infused Rogers based rom. I will of course root and back-up my stock AT&T rom. Thanks

[Q] Noob question regarding Builds

a while back i flashed Trigger to my phone using odin. Ive been using trigger since and its becoming buggy so i was looking into new ROMs but i was unsure of something. My baseband build is KD1, so does that mean i can only use KD1 builds or what :| Sorry if this facepalm worthy but its been a while since i did any of this. Im also looking for recommendations on what ROM to use next and if there is anything special i need to do when switching ROMs.
Thanks
You can flash any rom but if you flash a gingerbread rom you will need to have the correct bootloaders. Fbis251 has an excellent starter pack that you should check out. Valhalla is the only gb rom I liked. It is good others are equally as good.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
The baseband is the modem version like me I'm on Valhalla Final with KD1 modem bc it works for me best so what u wanna do is
Download GB started pack from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223765
Also download the rom of your choice so follow the instructions of the GB starter pack and you will have Gingerbread with the rom of your choice
