Okay, I'm tired of seeing people not be able to get on the GB ext4 bandwagon where apps don't disappear. This guide is for you if you want a smooth, surefire way to get on GB.
NOTES
* The KC1 and KJ6 files contain bootloaders for the SGH-T959V. By downloading and flashing the files you agree that you will not hold me or anyone in Team Acid responsible if your device gets bricked. There are always risks when flashing custom firmware and ROMs onto your phone.
* As always, make a full backup of your SD card and phone.
FEATURES
* Root
* CWM + drhonk's custom KJ1 kernel preinstalled.
* Gets rid of the disappearing apps problem
* Gets rid of the missing SD card once you're booted into GB
* Gets rid of your bootloops
* Get a working GB ROM with ext4 support (includes Official KJ6 with drhonk's custom KJ1 + cwm kernel)
* All the files you need are included in this post
* Wipes out all the gremlins you had on your phone by putting the KC1 bootloaders, then the KJ6 bootloaders on your phone.
PREREQUISITES
1) Download all the files from the links on this post, and extract both .7z files and Odin v1.85 using 7-zip or a compatible program
2) Leave the phone's back cover off since you're gonna have to do a few battery pulls and you need access to the sd card
3) Format your sd card by hooking it up to your computer with an sd adapter or through mass storage mode using your phone and a USB cable.
FORMATTING ERASES EVERYTHING ON YOUR SD CARD. MAKE SURE YOU BACK IT UP ONTO YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE YOU DO THIS.
Follow this guide to format your sd card on Windows (this is on XP but the same steps can be taken on Vista or 7).
This guide is meant for using your sd card on a Wii, but the process is the same to get it working on the phone.
WATCH THE VIDEO ALL THE WAY TROUGH BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OF THIS.

INSTRUCTIONS
1) After formatting the SD card with the steps above, put your favorite GB ROM, and install_busybox.zip onto the SD card
- 1a) You can restore any backup of your SD card you made at this point. Make sure you have at least 2GB free on the card though!
2) Put your phone into download mode
3) Open Odin on your computer
4) Load up Odin, and load the KC1 files, DON'T TOUCH ANY OTHER OPTIONS, leave them like they are even if Odin changes them!
- 4a) PIT: Sgs4g.pit
- 4b) PDA: pda.tar.md5
5) Flash and let the phone reboot. Once you see the T-Mo startup screen (the pink one), OR the CWM (red text) screen do a battery pull.
6) Put your phone back into download mode
7) Click reset in Odin, now load up the KJ6 files
- 7a) PDA: pda.tar.md5
- 7b) CSC: csc.tar.md5
8) Flash the files and let the phone reboot.
- 8a) The phone will go into standard recovery (blue and yellow letters, you might hear Linda) and then reboot itself once.
- 8b) The 2nd time you will see either the CWM red letter screen or the Galaxy S 4G white letters/pink splash screen and if you prefer you can let the phone boot all the way, do a battery pull.
9) Now unplug the USB cable, put the battery back in, hold vol + and -, then press power. You should boot into CWM (red letters, voodoo).
10) Go into the voodoo menu > enable lagfix and /system lagfix on
11) Flash the GB rom you put on your sd card
12) Flash the busybox_installer.zip
13) Reboot and hear Linda give her speech.
14) Welcome to GB with ext4!

It was all a blur. I followed your steps and all I remember was some cable and talking to the ruler of Asgard then their was a crazy battery pull then back to Asgard and then i had a one way conversation with some fembot named linda and it all ended with me having gingerbread.
Thanks for the help.

I can say this is pretty much what I followed and had only one other change. Many of us have had to create a 2048 partition on the SD card to make it work, 1024 just wouldn't work for some of us.

Linda will not speak. Will the above work for my Rom?

It might be overkill for you, but yes it'll work as long as you have a properly formatted sd card.
Just know that this will wipe everything on your phone so look for a CWM gingerbread rom. There's a few good ones right now. I'm using audiophile ftw

Your going to get a few questions for the people who were on the leaked first version of GB with the jacked bootloaders - So I was thinking you might want to add How to get back to a proper Froyo version like KD1 in your post.... .Kc1 for some reason didnt work for me - and I somewhat know what Im doing...lol....Im just saying tho.... happened to me...

I use a process very similar to this when flashing a new GB ROM, excellent write up! Only difference is I use the old 8gb sdcard from my old MT3G with a 2gb partition on it, works every time! I just don't feel comfortable resizing my normal 16gb sdcard in case something goes wrong, or the card gets wiped.

This will actually revert you back to a full KC1 with bootloaders, wiping the GB bootloaders that were bad, then it puts you on the KH2 bootloaders which I haven't had any trouble with and haven't heard anyone complain about. That's why I wrote this guide, this is all working.

As crackpot and others have mentioned, 2048 might actually work best for you. If you formatted to 1024 and it worked, stick with it, the point is to get a method working for you that works every time.

very well, thank you sir

i done everything .... installed kh2 with crt but when i open voodoo there is no lagfix ....

I tried this thing for 5 hours and just gave up. Raver posted a new Redux v. Lol I am not sure where I got lost in the OP but after several tries I couldn't flash a GB. Bricked my phone very ugly. Will give it a try when a final GB is out. Anyway, thanks for the help. I know its just my noobness.

Well you can always send us PM's or try to contact us if you ever get stuck, you don't have to try to solve problems on your own. If you are willing to try it again, and I recommend you do because it'll get rid of a lot of problems, feel free to send me a message.

I've tried your guide twice, I end up with a stock recovery and no ext4. I heard Linda talk both times after ODIN, but no dice
I'm trying to use this ROM: [ROM-Leak][CWM] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKH2 Deodexed + CRT On and Off Enabled! by chadster

Acctttuuuaaalllyyy I just tried flashing drhonk's GB kernel with voodoo via ODIN. Got it! Linda is converting now.

I got something I've never seen before.
At step 8 (not a or b), I let the phone reboot and I hear linda say "convert data partition", then I see the android + install package screen blip by, and now I'm at a screen that says "Confirm password" and a low res touch ui for entering a would be confirmed password... wtf?!?
I'll start over and try again, but in case I get back to this point, has anyone ever seen this?

You must've used a password instead of a pattern for your lockscreen. Try typing in anything and press enter.

These instructions should fix your semi-bricked or broken phone as long as you can get it into download mode. Make sure you have drivers already installed on your Windows computer before starting.
A NON-STOCK microUSB CABLE IS REQUIRED AS STOCK FAILS THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME
If you need drivers or the ones you have don't work you can use these:
32-bit drivers 64-bit drivers
Things you will need to restore your phone are below.
BY PERFORMING THESE STEPS ALL DATA ON YOUR PHONE WILL BE WIPED AND IT WILL BE RESTORED TO FACTORY STATE. I ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY IF THIS DAMAGES YOUR PHONE OR DOESN'T FIX IT. DO AT YOUR OWN RISK
A Windows Machine is required for using Odin. If you don't have a Windows machine see second post.
Download and use this version of Odin: Odin 1.85 and pit file Thanks to iNsAn|tY for hosting1
Download this tar: SPH-D700-EL30-8Gb-REL.tar.md5 Provided by K0nane

or
SPH-D700-FC09-8Gb-REL.tar hosted by kennyg123
MD5 sum:6426b89638df4e3dcf6e19b8f79cdcf0
Set up the software:
Extract the Odin3 v1.85.zip
Run odin3 v1.85.exe
Make sure the following boxes are checked (they should already be checked):
Re-Partiton, Auto-reboot, F. Reset Time
Click PIT and select the victory_8G_100528.pit that you extracted from the Odin zip.
Click PDA and select SPH-D700-EL30-8Gb-REL.tar.md5
Put your phone in Download Mode:
Make sure the USB cord is unplugged
Remove the battery and microSD card
Plug the phone into Computer (the phone may display a battery on the display this is normal just ignore it and go to the next step)
Hold down the "1" key and the power button.
The phone should now be displaying a Yellow Triangle with Downloading... (see end of post for image of download mode)
Under ID:COM, the box should turn yellow and contain the com port. If it doesn't see Troubleshooting at the end.
Odin should now look like this (screenshot shows EB13 but is the same for EL30):

Now you should be able to click Start.
Your phone should try and auto-reboot when finished.
The phone can't boot normally without the battery but you can safely unplug it from the computer install the battery and turn it on.
You phone should be working 100%!
This has worked on numerous phone that have partition issues, intermittent booting issues, and many other file system issues. This also fixes the Samsung Logo disappearing from boot.
While some people claim that the re-partition and time reset should not be checked, this guide is designed to fix ALL problems. While using Odin on your phone has some inherent risk and is slightly less risky to not re-partition the phone some phones will not be fixed without this and that's why it is included. You can try following the above steps and only checking "reboot" but you may have to reflash and check the boxes in the instructions if you phone still has problems.
Troubleshooting:
Phone not getting in download mode
While holding down 1 and power insert the battery before trying to connect the USB cable​Odin isn't detecting the phone?!
Try a different USB PORT on the computer.
Normally only the USB port the drivers were installed to and the phone was plugged into when they were installed will work (easily anyway)​Try a different USB cable
If you are using the stock cable it is almost certainly NOT going to work. You can get a cheap BlackBerry USB cable off of Amazon for a couple bucks and works like a charm.​Uninstall the drivers, reboot, and reinstall the drivers​Try Odin v1.61​It seems frozen and hasn't made any progress for 15 minutes
factoryfs.rfs takes awhile but if it stays on that for longer than 15 minutes unplug the phone and start over​It started flashing but part way through the download mode screen went away and it just shows a color (can be different colors each time)
This means that it got disconnected during the transfer. Try again if that doesn't work try a different USB cable.​You get a big red failed and tried the above steps.
Before you try to reflash make sure to copy the log that Odin makes in the bottom left hand portion of the screen so we can help you troubleshoot and then post in this thread.​Still not working?
Try this tar SPH-D700-EC05-8Gb-REL.tar provided by K0nane​
Here is a picture of Download Mode if you aren't sure what it looks like:

Special thanks to K0nane and iNsAn|tY hosting and providing the EL30 tar and Odin.
Even though there are other guides how to do this I wanted something that was a little more concise and easier to follow. If you prefer qbking77 made a How-To Video to restore your phone. He uses different files and such but the end result is hopefully the same so check that out if you prefer or if you are confused and want to see the steps.

Heimdall Section for users having trouble with Odin or do not have Windows PC will be added shortly. Below is mordant23's post that I am putting here in the mean time. My post will feature the gui as the main interface and give options for all supported operating systems. Until then thank you mordant23 for allowing me to use this in the opener:
mordant23 said:
I had to flash back to stock after I switched to Linux. I couldn't find an easy guide. In case this helps someone else, below are the steps I took. If this is useful, could this be added to the original post or would it be better if I start a new thread?
The steps should be adaptable to OS X, but since I don't use OS X I can't really write instructions with confidence. Perhaps someone else can?
Note: Everyone's linux distributions are different. For the instructions I'll use generalized descriptions of steps. The only specific instructions I'll give is for using Heimdall. I am not a linux guru nor am I an Epic 4G expert. The only wisdom I have is 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything else.
The steps are pretty easy. I'll give more detailed explanation afterwards.
0. Download tar and pit files listed in the original post
1. Install Heimdall
2. Understand how Heimdall linux process differs from Odin windows process
3. Boot phone into download mode and connect to computer
4. Push files to phone with Heimdall
Step 0: Download tar and pit files
Pretty simple. Unpack those bad boys. Put them all into one folder nice and cozy neat like. That's right. The pit, modem, and completely unzipped files all in one folder.
Step 1: Heimdall is your friend
There is no Odin without Windows. We must turn to another Norse god, Heimdall to help us out. Heimdall is an open source project to replace Odin. There are ports to Windows and Mac OS X. The Epic 4G is not officially supported but many people have used it with no problem. I personally used linux mint 11 with an almost bricked phone with no problem. Use at your own risk.
Install Heimdall
The latest version at this time is a command line only version 1.2.0. The GUI for previous version 1.1.1 looks easy enough if you want to use them, although according to reports it may not work as well as command line. For the instructions I'll use the command line because I think it makes it easier to understand how to match files up to the different fields.
Since your linux distros are different, I will not go into any specifics on how to install.
Step 2: Understand how Heimdall differs from Odin
Difference 1: Don't need no stinkin' Samsung drivers (unless you're using Heimdall in Windows). "But what about those drivers..." Zip it! You don't need 'em.
Difference 2: Unpack the tarball and unzip the pit. The individual files in the tar, the pit file, and the modem.bin file should all be in one folder. The major difference with Heimdall and Odin is that with Heimdall, you specify how the files match the partitions. In some respects this is easier because if you don't need to repartition, or if you only need to push a particular file, e.g. the modem, you can do that. The trick with the command line is to know which files match the command line switches, e.g. --modem modem.bin, --factoryfs factoryfs.rfs, etc.
Step 3: Boot phone in download mode and connect to computer
Open up keyboard and hold 1 while hitting power.
Connect phone to computer.
Step 4: Push files to phone
Open terminal window in the directory with all the files. Use cd if necessary to get to the folder.
The general structure for the heimdall command is:
Specifically for the SPH-D700-EC05-8gb-REL.tar and victory_8G_100528.pit listed in the original post on this thread:
Capitalization is important. I don't know how many times I messed up because I didn't type Sbl.bin with a capital "S".
If you use the gui, just make sure you specify which files go in which fields. I don't have the gui front end so I have not tested it, but it looks simple enough.
If everything works, then you'll see the progress as heimdell copies everything. If something is not right, then you'll get an error message.
Heimdall reboots the phone when it's done.
Please let me know what you think. Suggestions always welcome.

Important to note this will take a very long time I've been sitting waiting for mine to finish for a while. Been about 30 minutes and still not done.

What is it saying? It shouldn't take that long. Do you see the blue progress bar on your phone?
I was going to mention that it froze once when I was trying to do it and I just unplugged my phone and took out the battery and restarted and it went through.

Yea still has the blue progress bar odin says factoryfs. I actually thought it might be frozen. But i started to ask how long it would take and it jumped forward some more. And now it just finished as I'm typing this. Which it won't boot stuck on the samsung boot screen just keeps vibrating gonna try again.

Yeah try again. It takes a few minutes of factoryfs due to it pushing 258MB to the phone but shouldn't have taken 30 minutes.
Now this can't fix your phone if it has hardware problems but should fix everything else. Let me know how it goes. My problem with it freezing was before it started push stuff to the phone.
The only other thing I could think of and didn't even question was your computer using a USB 2.0 port. That's the only reason I could see it taking so long to transfer data to the phone if it was Using usb 1.0 or 1.1

Finally gave up on eb13 after redownloading the tarball and still not getting anything. Tried a di18 tar and it worked first try. Trying to odin from there to eb13 seems to be slow flash and then not working right still.

IF DI18 works you can let it OTA update to EC05 the same way EB13 would. I used EB13 because there is no OFFICIAL EC05 tar available presently but any of the full tars should work. Any reason you are trying to tar to EB13 in particular if you got DI18 working?
I don't remember where I downloaded EB13 from I just looked for a link when I was posting this How-To. You might want to try finding an EB13 tar from another source and see if that resolves the issue or redownload the EB13 tar. My EB13 tar has an md5 of b9b14611dcde5fbe586fdc242315b92b and I know it works on my Epic. You can use HashCalc or some other program to calculate the EB13 hash.

I updated the EB13 tar link in my original post. You may have to refresh your browser to see it http://www.multiupload.com/3YPCROH00T
You can try that.

No reason in particular for wanting to go to eb13 just thought it strange that it wouldn't work and wanted to keep trying.

I appreciate you trying. If you want you can try the new link of EB13 I posted and see if that works. I am downloading it now myself to see if the hash check matches what I have or not.

I made a video showing how to do this. You might want to link it in the OP:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ2g6J1JgjU
Also, a link to my other how to video thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009997
Oh and just for future reference, a post like this doesn't belong in the development section. It goes in to the general section.

Yeah I am going ask impaler to move it for me b/c I didn't mean to post it in dev just had a few too many windows going when I was putting it together. Thanks for the video link I'll add to OP with credit of course

I verified the new link has the correct md5 so it should work.

Very good directions.... should be added to the Other thread we have about ODIN though...

This will also bring back your samsung logo if you repaired your epic after a visionkernel brick but lost the samsung logo..

For those that ask if there is lag
This is still an ALPHA build so please do not be to critical, it needs alot of themeing to be done and there is more i need to put on but i think everyone will be happy with the direction this is going with. This is inludes everything Striked off the list of things to include above.
After flashing it will boot right into clockwork, press power to reboot. Clearing cache partition and Dalvik is not a bad idea but if you dont it wont hurt anything.
[tip]If you do not already have voodoo installed boot time should be 5-7 mins do not panic just be patient.[/tip]

1.) Download and install Winrar HERE
2.) Locate the compressed file you would like to extract
3.)Right mouse click on the file icon a drop down menu will appear , select Extract Here
4.) You will then see a progress pop up window that will appear then when completed will close itself
5.)This will leave an extracted file in the destination folder
Congrats you have successfully extracted the compressed file it is now ready for use

To install ODIN packages on your device
1.Download and install drivers on your computer HERE
2. Next you will need to download the Altered Beast zip file from post #1 which will be extracted and placed in the PDA section of ODIN:
3.) You will need to download the ODIN application tool found here ODIN or ODIN MIRROR
4) Extract the Altered Beast zip file to get the .tar.md5 file
5.) If your phone is plugged into your computer, unplug it now.
6.) If your phone is not powered down, power it down now.

The first thin rectangle in the upper left of the ODIN applicate should also turn yellow and identify a com port. You can now release the volume key.
12.) Click on the PDA button in ODIN
Triple check that you pushed the PDA button. Do NOT click the Phone button prior to continuing to step 13. If you choose Phone, you will have bought your Fascinate a one-way ticket to hell.

[TIP]It may boot into stock recovery simply Press the home button to reboot
It is also advised to wipe cache partition while you are in recovery [/TIP]
******************************************************************************************************************************************
[INFO]Visual Instructions [/INFO]
First you must download
Odin v1.3
Once odin is downloaded open it, its an executable file so when you open it you will see the following :
Once this is up, do the following
-Remove the battery from your Device
-Plug in the USB cord
-Hold down the Volume Down button until you see a big bright triangle on your screen , underneath it will say Downloading and beneath that it will say Do not turn off target
At this point you will see one of the boxes in the corner turn yellow, letting you know there is a connection, it will look like this
after you are connected you want to hit the PDA button, NEVER PHONE, phone will erase your modem and you will have trouble connecting after that at all.
when you click the PDA button a pop up will appear and you will need to select the file you would like to flash and then click open
now you will see the file appear in the PDA window ,, with connection made and the file in the PDA window, you may now hit Start
Once you hit start this process Should take approx. 5 mins if you are returning to stock . shouldnt take any less time than that and not much more. So dont start freaking out at min 2...(wait till min 7) lol
If you are flashing a Clockworkmod file it should take approx 7seconds.
once it is completed you should see the following window:
Once you have reached this screen it is safe to unplug , put your battery in and boot up..

90% of problems associated with Odin are due to communication between phone and computer
Reboot your computer
Redownload the odin package
Use USB ports in the back of the computer, if you already are use a different port
Make sure you did not forget to remove battery from phone (Should be out the ENTIRE process)
make sure Odin is the only application running and Antivirus is DISABLED
If you are using a laptop make sure its plugged in also find the nearest desktop and try from there
****************************************************************************
After failed flash with odin upon power up the following is depicted on the screen
SOFT BRICK
Resolution
First off DO NOT PANIC. there is a simple solution, just remove the battery , plug the phone into the computer, press and hold volume down and it will enter download mode. Please review all the steps oulined in this thread and try and flash again

no i honestly i am not sure how to make it in zip flashable form yet hopefully a developer will show mercy upon me lol and show me how its done

I'm game!
Downloading now.
Just wanted to give y'all a big "THANKS" for all you do!
This is the first time I've flashed a ROM in a long time. SO far, it's been fun - let's see what this one does!
EDIT #1
WooHoo!
After rebooting, it booted into recovery mode (Red Text), so I just rebooted, and it went to the "Red Eye", and about 2 minutes later, we're golden!
BTW, the boot animation is still 'glitchy'. Could this be from my original flashing of v4 Kernel?
EDIT #2
Looks like email is missing....no ability to add either POP email or Exchange email, unless I'm missing something.

Thank you for the ROM ...loaded up perfectly. Are you planning on keeping the background image for the notification pull down or going with a solid color/transparent?

Rom is amazing.

UPDATE: nevermind, found the solution in the thread on androidcentral.
Thanks!
Ok, the rom booted up great. But I'm having calendar problems. I downloaded both the .apks. The calendarsync installed fine, but my accounts say sync is experiencing problems and will be back shortly. So I tried to install the calendarprovider and it won't install.
Help??
Thanks!

I think in the ROM imnuts created, he removed the stock samsung email app. Unless you're talking about something different entirely.

Wow, this ROM looks amazing! Seriously cannot wait to see how it progresses.

Keep up the great work! Followed your instructions and everything is going great. I'm about to download those apks and put them in the place to fix calendar.

anyone on that has the calendar problem?

Im using this rom and dont have the calender bug. Only.bug ive seen so far is when deleting a contact it erases it then force closes on me. But it still does its job so its all good

For some reason, I can't even access the Calendar on my phone. It's not even in the app launcher or anything like that. The widget still works, but even from the widget, I can't open the calendar. Any ideas?

Disclaimer:
These One-Click's contains bootloaders, kernels, and roms for ONLY the SGH-T959V. This One-Click will not work with any other device!
By downloading and flashing the files you agree that you will not hold me or anyone in the credits responsible if your device becomes bricked or unusable. (But here is a place to get that kinda stuff fixed)
If you need help getting your device unbricked or getting into "Download Mode", please search in the General Forum and search and ask in the Q&A Forum.
T959W Users
If you have a Moblicity SGH-T959W, please read this thread first!
Introduction:
There is a single full One-Click on this page that contains the full stock rom.
There are two more sets in the second post with AntonX's and Hampsterblade's kernels (both oc/uv and non-oc/uv variants). They only contain the bootloaders and kernels.
This package will reset your "Galaxy S 4G - SGH-T959V" to UVKJ6 with all the bootloaders you'd get by following FBis251's [ODIN+CWM] GB Ext4 Starter Pack, but with stock (not rooted, not deodexed) UVKJ6 installed afterward.
The idea in the end is to have everything you need from this guide to go back to stock, as if you updated with Kies from KD1.
If you wrote bad bootloaders, but can still get into download mode somehow, this One-Click will also write known good bootloaders.
The Fully Stock One-Click is useful if you need to send your phone back to be repaired, as the Stock files in this One-Click are from the Kies tarball.
All package include:
Repartitioning: Repartition to stock KJ6
Reloading: IBL/PBL, SBL, SBL2, PARAM, Kernel, Recovery, FactoryFS, Data, and Modem.
Formatting: Cache and DBdata
All packages do not wipe:
EFS - Where your serial number and carrier information is stored.
SDCard - Where your pictures are stored.
Adam says "You may use this code to reformat the Data and SDCard *2767*3855# There is no way to do this from Download Mode. The code will leave the EFS untouched."
But I suggest if you are using CWM to back up your sdcard and do a battery pull after you see the boot animation. Boot into recovery and repartition your sdcard to have >=2048M of ext2.
This will make sure you have no problems converting to ext4 from rfs and visa-versa.

Instructions:
(Windows Only) You also need to install the Visual Studio C++ runtime. (Thanks stephen_w!)
Get the latest version of Java 1.6 from this link or from your linux distribution. (openjdk-6-jdk worked for me )
Run:
Code:
java -jar <one-click_package_you_downloaded>.jar
Remove the /sdcard/Voodoo directory from your sdcard. This fixes a problem if the CSC updates, and linda converted to ext4 the first time because of voodoo.
Put your phone into "Download Mode".
Run "flash" once. Let the phone reboot itself. Don't touch the phone until it boots into android. If it works and you want to flash bootloaders:
Put your phone into "Download Mode" again (make sure developer mode is enabled on the phone):
Code:
adb reboot download
Check the "Flash Bootloaders" checkbox and Run "flash" again to get bootloaders.
Again, let it reboot fully into android.
Your device should now be like it would be if it came from the Kies with Official UVKJ6 preloaded.

Downloading now, If it works properly I'll have a mirror on the Team Komin server for you and I can send this device back. BTW... UnBrickable Mod team have nothing to do with Heimdall One-Click... That's Benjamin Dobell for Heimdall and Me for the One-Click and One-Click packager.
There's no need to RAR the JAR file. The firmware contained within is packaged in a superior tar.gz and a jar file is actually a zip.. It's already double compresed.
Just as a tip, I generally include the SBL2 in a flash. I don't know which devices use it, but it's supposed to ensure a valid SBL is on a device. It's safer and provides a total restore if you know you have a good SBL unlike the KG2 firmware package. I see there's no SBL2 in the detail tab. This is what happened to me today with KG2 bootloaders...

The problem is, samsung has never packaged an sbl2 with any leak or official package.
I had some weird problems when I wrote the sbl2, so not writing it makes me feel safer.

^^ I edited while you were posting. the code block shows why you should write the SBL2. Normally it's either empty or it has a duplicate SBL. If you're using a good SBL it's safe. If it's a bad SBL, then it's not safe. It's less safe to not have an SBL2 on a device in general though. If you switch to something like CM7, you won't have an SBL2. When you switch back to stock the SBL2 has to be flashed back or it's still missing on devices that have it.
I've already begun uploading. It's 1/2 way there and will be on the TK server in ETA 13 minutes 11 seconds. It has the SBL2 included and I verified everything works fine.
btw.. repackaging is a breeze. change the jar to a .zip file and then go to /com/AdamOutler/HeimdallOneClick/resources/ROMPackage/ the tar.gz is right there and you can open it in heimdall.

In the future, I would rather that you mirror that file that I have. As to not have different version of the same file on the web to support.
(EDIT: I mean, if you make a crontab to always pull the version I post, then I just tell people to get the latest version. Then I don't care where they get it.)

That's how I repackaged with the sourceforge links and other updated metadata. Except I just used the gnome-archive tool in nautilus. Just right-click on the jar and click "Extract All".

I retested with the SBL2, and didn't have any problems.
I must of had some bad combination loaded before, and thought it was the sbl2.
@AdamOutler, thanks for the advice!
Op updated with new link to the jar file. The rar without the sbl2 is still available, but will move to the 'old' folder soon.

Updated op with better notes and references.

Op updated with kj1 and kj6 with CWM + Voodoo Ext4 Lagfix one-clicks!

Great work, thanks..

This worked for me like a charm to get CWM back after bricking my phone and using AdamOutler's UnBrickable mod to bring it back: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333424
This CWM OneClick'er is invaluable, especially if there is problems with Odin after.
Props.

I suggest you load barsuk_CWMRecovery first, its down in the 2nd post..and do the usual wipes that you should do before flashing a rom..
Just a quick note, hopefully will save others some time too..
I think if you just went ahead and flashed the zip from the sdcard..
and now got 'android' loading with blinking cursor and no further..
For the hell of it, I did the same and got the same result..
The download is not a flash-able zip straight from the sdcard..
read further down for instructions
Then I went ahead and used the USB method..
[GUIDE] :: SuperPad/FlyTouch2/WWE10 Android 2.2 Froyo USB Flashing ::
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074251
No drama.. flashed and working fine.. just no camera at the moment.. I might play with some of the uboot's to see if it makes a difference.. but for now if you want your pad back.. I suggest go the USB route..
if you need a cable.. I use the same cable that comes with the usb cooling fans,
that power the cooling boards that people use under laptops.. Make sure you load the drivers or your computer will not recognize the pad.
Follow SmaRkieS thread and you should be fine..
If you cant burn the main android image using USB method.
You can try the MicroSD card method, but this is only applicable if your tablet will display the right uboot versions under the InfoTMIC start up logo.
@dyfren What does file zSYS.img?
I would say this is recovery.. I flashed it into this section..
hope this helps..
Will play over the weekend with it..
but at this stage running real smooth..

Ethernet - working - but had to pull out HDMI - reset the Internet connection then plug HDMI back in.. then worked.. so can be setup as a streaming box..
Wifi - so far all reports are stable
Things to Do..
Bootable SDcard for easy install
U-boot conformation for camera to work
Flash another Ramdisk - Download New Ramdisk image to change the path of save files to SDCard1
and this might fix the USB1&USB2 issues I am having.. as they are not mounting and holding..
Tried to do this work around but its not holding..

Many thanks for your kindness.
Your post is really helpfull.
Allready in 3925 and works fine, but ... wanna try that new 4325.
I'll give feedback when tried.

i had a go following the guide and it was fine until i got to flashing the actual Android image, (number 19 in the Guide). PC does its bit, then tablet comes up with "flashing/updating linux" (first bit tablet does) or something like that but the progress bar always stays empty, left it for 10-15 mins and still hadnt moved. tried the version in the guide and the version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1067746
also tried SD card method, comes up with "Updating image hRamdisk" and a dead progress bar.
Which version of Android did you use at step 19?
Thanks for your help so far, seems to be getting there

Yes.. I recommend it.. makes it feel just that bit more snappy..
Once I get time this weekend will try the root methods..then load in the V6 scripts and see how it goes..
sent from yet another MikG HTC Evo

which u-boot are you using?
mines still getting stuck at "Updating image linux-2.6.32.9"

MS
mine is Uboot - V 0.6.1.2(587)
Try the usual.. plug unplug and reboot computer..
as IUW can be a bit painful..

anybody test this FW ? i wanna try that new 4325 .

rooting
Working root using universal androot 1.6.2beta5
@hunterx: 4325 is working very fast. IT won't shutdown when in standby but drains battery faster.

Someone can explain how to modify the firmware to support the 3G _Barsuk_ as he had done?

Thanks for the new ROM, just installed USB method, works fine.
Generaly looks very "snappy" for a Pad with only 256mb of RAM.
Camera "force closes"; Youtube works fine, and Wifi also.
I'll keep posting as long as i play with it.
Sheers

anyone got USB1 or USB2 readable?
when I plug them in I am getting "preparing memory device" then "memory device ready for remove"
To me, this is saying that it see's it.. but for some reason is calling to unmount it straight away..
I would say it is fixable as we had a similar problem on other Roms.. its just setting up the right command..
I have loaded a mix of drivers in to the system/lib/modules...but no success..
Then tried to use terminal but not getting access in to the root..
I kinda need to learn a few more commands in terminal..
(Back to DOS days..)
is there a cheat sheet around for the basic commands?
was playing with the aps2sd.. got the sdcard formatted with a sd2ext
But its a no go at the moment.. as even with TB backup
This Rom is not mounting into it..
As said before, I can't even get script manager to load up so can't load V6 scripts..
Maybe someone will have better luck then me..

I am using 4325 without any mods and both USB Ports are working fine with my fat32 sticks.

Can anybody tell me if flashplayer is working properly on this firmware?
Firmware I am running now wont play video in browser (just few seconds than it stops sometime sound is remaning.
What are the benefits of this firmware compared to the one I have now
2.2 V2.1#3925

Flash is working for me on this Rom..
but I haven't tested it a lot.. just been to a couple of sites I know with video and they work ok..

question about the flash
Last time I flashed is a while ago so dont know if im doing things right.
So ive got a few questions before I will flash
On startup my pad shows 0.6.1.2. (587) at the right bottom
So can I skip the uboot part of the SMarkies guide?
The folder of 4325 contains more files than mentioned in the guide if i'm correct I only have to use : Kernal, user, system and ramdisk? Please confirm?
Do i have to use ramdisk in 4325 folder or the one mentioned in the Smarkies guide?
Your advice please have to use my pad on christmastrip for my kids so I cant risk to brick it

It's not a problem with this Rom, I also faced the same with previous versions and stock Rom, any of you guys face accelerometer axels inverted when playing games like Raging Thunder or Labyrinth? When bending down turns right and bending up turns left.
Strange, it happens with all games and still can’t find a solution.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Try this patched lib.
View attachment libreference_ril.Universal.zip
Is new solution for 3g. It is much easier. Who want may create update.zip for CWM.
Just replace original lib and set permissions to 644 (owner root).
EDIT
Some patched binaries and libs: View attachment patched_binaries.zip
Include wpa_supplicant with ad-hoc (not tested), vold with ntfs support (need to load kernel module first), ril libs with disabled check for modem model (for gsm only, not for cdma).

Flash all the files as per no:18 of the guide.. but use the ramdisk that comes with this package - dont use sMarkies at this stage - I flashed it to see if any difference but it only was for reading of the USBports.. the one with this package is stable enough
Your advice please have to use my pad on christmastrip for my kids so I cant risk to brick it

If you follow the guide, you should be right.
as usually people only brick on the U-boot flashing.
just take your time.
make sure you got the right files setup in IUW before you boot the pad..
then...boot-connect-flash...

best rom so far 4325
I am posting from this right now.
problems:
Wifi not starting on boot
Rotation/accelo messed up. Calibration makes it worse
Cell standby - fixed by renaming phone.apk
Market included but is missing skype and others
Camera working with 612 587 uboot
Anyone have advice on overclocking?
Thanks for the rom it is bad-ass.

This is just a relay thread but, please, full read it and then, if you dare, jump to the master one!

Free Memory to > 1Gb!​
How to Increase your Internal Memory Size with very low effort!
NOTICE: This method works both on Rooted and NOT Rooted Phones!
You simply need to meet three easy requirements:
Stock Firmware installed on the Phone (custom ROMS not supported ...They don't need to!)
A microSD with two primary formatted partitions inside (the former 'to FAT32' and the latter 'to EXT4' filesystems)
Ready to Flash to your Galaxy Mini via Odin
NOTICE: The following Black Box Howto is explained deep inside in post n. 2 and from post n. 52 to post 54!
...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Last Year, on December 18, I started the quoted thread for Galaxy Mini, showing a tweak useful to Increase the Internal Memory Size on Stock ROMs simply switching the data filesystem to the second partition of the microSD...
Benefits and disadvantages of this tweak are fully explained and discussed in the quoted Thread.
Question: Why I'm posting here, then?
Answer:
I received requests about tweaking the FIT boot images too...
I studied the FIT kernel vs Mini one and figured out that they are pretty equals (actually they full-match each other but only few stuffs related to post boot hardware detection)
I tried and made few images for FIT, which are shared in post n. 56 of the quoted thread, but - owning a Galaxy Mini - I was not able to test them...
...till now...
...
Angry about that and waiting for beta testers for them, I compared deep inside Galaxy Mini and Galaxy FIT...
Surprise: If I call them TWINS, the mistake is not so a mistake:
...At Kernel Layer they match each other...
...the bootloaders call the kernel at same memory address...
...boot sequences via ramdisk completely equal...
...system libraries are exactly the same...
...system software and leftovers too...
The only hardware differences don't really need to modify the boot sequence!
THAT'S ALL: I simply tested the FIT images on my Mini and they ends up and running...
THEY WORK!
What's Now?
I'll not repeat the Flashing procedure with Odin - you can read it on the quoted thread - but here are the FIT boot images actually modded and shared:
PDA=S5670DDKT3
PDA=S5670DXKPB
PDA=S5670DXKT4
PDA=S5670JPKQ7
PDA=S5670LUBKP6
PDA=S5670LUBKPI
PDA=S5670XWKTI
PDA=S5670XXKPQ
Your firmware is not listed? ...let me know!
Obviously you need Odin and Ops file ready for your phone model and not the Mini one...

Doc_cheilvenerdi.org said:
How does it Work:
Scenario 1:
I switch on the Phone, without a MicroSD slotted in or with a microSD with a single FAT32 partition (broken or damaged microSD also suite this scenario...); GingerBread boots as usual!
No Difference!
Scenario 2:
I switch on The Phone with a microSD slotted in (with the second partition formatted as EXT4 filesystem but still EMPTY); Ginger boots acting as if
/data
is completely moved outside to microSD but just WIPED (not true obviously, and the original /data is safe inside the phone), so it resettle it from beginning...
NOTICE:
...If your second partition is 1Gb wide...
...your new Internal Memory will be 1Gb wide...
Scenario 3:
I switch on the Phone with the second partition of the microsd (EXT4) up and running (already resettled up for use and with my userdata on it); Ginger simply boots with
/data
moved outside to microSD with your userdata there and tons of apps just installed from the market...

Doc_cheilvenerdi.org said:
NOTICES & ADVICES:
If I want to remove the microSD from the slot, FIRST I NEED TO SWITCH OFF THE PHONE!
When I install apps from the Market, Ginger Misunderstands the actual new Internal Memory SIZE and puts the apk files to External Storage anyway! I simply need to move them "to the phone" via "Settings menu" immediately after!
When I switch on the Phone without the microSD, I boot using the original /data inside the phone, actually loosing all the apps installed onto the external one untill next boot with SDcard; and, of course, loosing my sms stored there and others personal userdata too.
Unfortunately this boot image heavy conflicts with Link2SD (great app anyway!), so you must choose one: This Boot image or Link2SD... not both... sorry!

Have you got an "unsigned update.zip capable recovery"?
Here a list of update.zip files ready to flash without Odin:
PDA=update-S5670JPKQ7.zip
PDA=update-S5670XWKTI.zip

I'm from Europe. I have installed S5670XXKPQ. Can something be done for this firmware?

Thanks for this.
I forgot to mention that I have installed OC 844 MHz Kernel. Because it does not work for me. I have to reinstall and then try.

Don't work for me.

SD Make-up!
When you get true internal memory size even after tweak, something went wrong while making 2nd partition on SD...
You should first check How you made the second partition on your SD Card...
You can resize the first one (FAT32) or start from scratch (two new empty partitions); anyway, They both must be primary and the 2nd must be EXT4 newly formatted (mandatory).
If you feel you've done right, you could check what's happened with an app I just wrote to check the 2nd filesystem for errors. You can find it here; it's a Beta Version but fully working...
Read carefully the post and, eventually, give it a try.
P.S. It seems, otherwise, that you shoud partition your SD out of the phone (USB or MMC adapter needed). Actually Everybody who asked me for the same troubleshooting, solved it using Minitool Partition Wizard on Windows or GParted on Linux, BUT acting on the SD outside of the Phone!
P.S.2 No need to flash again! If the phone booted, the image is up and running fine...

I used USB, opened Mini Tool Partition Wizard, wiped all the SD, Apple, made ​​a primary FAT32 partition, created a primary ext4 partition, Apple, waited till everything is over and that's it.
The problem remains the same.
Again flashed PDA S5670XXKPQ = (2.3.6) and same problem again.

apple style partition?
