Im new to the android community and phones. I bought an Inspire with gingerbread (2.3.3) and would like to add cyanogenmod to it but the tutorials look so "harmfull" they scare me away so i have some question.
Can i downgrade from 2.3 to android v1?
Have anyone here rooted and flashed the same phone I have?
What is "radio? Can I change it to another one? how can I tell if it will work with my carrier?
please, please, please. READ
these questions you are asking concern me
1. you dont downgrade to v1....because it doesnt exist
2. we all have the same phone as you, otherwise we wouldnt have an inspire section
3. there is an entire thread dedicated to this very subject....look in the dev section.
there are easy to follow guides, tutorials, and walkthroughs here, but you have to READ...there is ZERO excuse for not reading and comprehending this stuff. if it is too much for you, you should NOT be doing any of it, and leave your phone stock
This is why I said..im NEW with this... none of what you helped in some way.

then you have some READING to do. nobody here is going to hold your hand.
ALL the information you seek is already here, but you have to READ
Sorry if all you want is someone to hold your hand and spoonfeed information to you
NEW or not, it doesnt matter. I was NEW to this phone when i got it. I READ, the same way i have done with all my other phones. I READ to understand what i am doing and how to do it.
heres the first thing you should have read when you came to the inspire boards:

this question has come up several times in the last month. yes it works just fine
Hi, i just rotted the unit and everything was fine
So i decided to use, cyanogenmod, it installed
now i can make calls but it does not connect to the data network portion.
Any ideas?
I noticed the radio baseband is slighly different than the original. could it be?
Sorry. was quick. i entered the APN settings and it is now connecting.. just Edge....before (stock rom) i had "H" (guessing is 3G). Now it only connects to E (edge i assume).
The weird thing is that before whenever i was in an area with only edge It would not allow me to browse but now I can.
any idea jedi master?
you can try a different radio. look at the radio thread in the dev section
Sorry to bother you so much. I was able to solve the radio issue. Now, since the market app wasn't included i followed the guide on how to install gapps but after doing so i can't get pass the boot screen "touch the android to begin".
I try to wipe and reflash but still does not let me do it. Any ideas?
did you touch the android to begin?
Yes, sir. But it will still restart.
i try to wipe data and restart the process but same thing happens.
Tried taping the four corners and an still happening.
Someone said the the gapps file might be corrupted.
Right now cyanogenmod is a pain. is there a way to install another room or the stock one through recovery?
Thanks for all your help!

you can install any rom you like in recovery.
boot into recovery
go to mounts and storage
mount usb storage
on your computer, copy the rom zip onto the phone
back,
install zip file from sdcard
browse to rom zip
confirm flash

no. this will leave you an unrooted stock rom
why dont you browse the dev forum here and look at all the ROM offerings?
I think i will just go with the stock one and the do the same procedure (using the hack kit and just leave it stock rooted....
would that be ok?

Try this fix.. I made it due to nfc not working after flashing CM7.1 (2.3.7).
It may help here if ICS used similar nfc libraries.
Thanks!It works.

Thanks, I had the same problem and it fixed it for me too.
Hello,
First of all I'm a n00b at this, so bear with me.
I have a SAMSUNG GALAXY S phone that came with FROYO 2.2.1. I tried upgrading to CM9 following the instructions in cyanogenmod full update guide wiki.
I encountered a few problems though:
1. That guide is for Android 2.3+, so I had to go to the Samsung website and upgrade the firmware to GINGERBREAD.
2. Apparently, my phone doesn't go into download mode by using the side buttons. So I had to do it using ABM.EXE.
Finally, I was able to install CWM Recovery 2.5 using heimdall. I wiped out data/factory reset, cache partition and Dalvik cache. I go to the download folder to install CM9 nighlty zip and I get a STATUS 7 error.
Now my phone doesn't even load. WHAT DO I DO?!!!!!!
Fancy paperweight
Do you have a Samsung t959v or t959? If its t959 ur in the wrong forum and if u have a t959v then you flashed a rom meant for another phone.
If you have a t959v and can get to rec or download mode then try flashing kj6 one click but seems like you don't have this phone.

Thanks for replying ericmm.
Somehow I managed to get the phone running on Gingerbread. The Model number is SGH-T959V. Where do I find the ROM for this phone? Would CM9 work on this phone?

Does the new ICS for the att version of the skyrocket have a safe kernal or is it still at risk of having the emmc corrupted?
Update: it seems the brick bug is in the stock ics 4.0.4 , use caution when wiping back to factory. Entropy512 has informed me that the att rom has the mmc_cap_erase command in a host file where rogers does not. I will update as soon as more info becomes available to me.

You are incorrect as from what I understood from your original post you were on a rooted gb rom and flashed back to stock in order to update via kies. 1st off, gb kernels aren't an issue and 2nd, Odin is a safe work around the brick bug issue.
No where in here do u say that u went into the settings on ics and performed a factory reset. That will be the true test
Edit: I revisited your post and see youbdidnt specify gb vs ics but even if u were on ics and went back to stock this wouldn't be a problem through Odin

Hello Experts,
This is sktneer from India. I am Forum Guru in reputed ExcelForum (excelforumdotcom).
But I do not know anything about the back end applications used in phones except the basic functionality of my phone, currently using Motorola Atrix 2 MB865 (Asia version).
I would request you experts to guide and assist me to resolve the issues I am having with my phone.
My phone is very slow and I have tried almost all the methods I found over internet to get rid of this but all my efforts have gone in vain.
Recently over internet I found that some users having the same problem claimed that their issue was resolved by updating their Atrix 2 to Jelly Bean with unofficial leak 3.
To be very frank, this was completely new thing to me and I was not even aware of the terminology used in this scenario.
My Questions:
1) Is rooting is required for this kind of updaing? If yes, please guide me that how can I root my device?
2) What are the correct steps for updating my device with such leaks? Because when I googled this I just found few links for downloading but as I told you that I am completely novice and not familiar with the terminology used, so couldn't get the correct steps to be followed.
3) My last question is, is it possible to install ICS back if I face issues with JB on my device?
I know that I have asked too much and certainly you experts don't expect a complete novice in the forum but I hope that you will bear with me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is absolutely safe to install jb leak on Indian atrix 2 (I am using the same on my phone)
Rooting is not required for this process.
Use this link for complete procedure
and this is the link for downloading jb leak 3
Use the jb leak 3 instead of stock rom (leak) that is given in that procedure

Thanks Sameer!
I really appreciate your help.
I visited the link you provided and one thing is not clear to me. Would you please guide me that how to follow that......
In the link OP stated something like this....
"Once the whole process is over, you'll get a little sign saying that it passed. This means that your ROM has been flashed. Note- do NOT remove your phone/ let your phone or computer switch off. You do not want to go there. Make sure everything has enough charge.
Now... This step is very important... Reeboot your phone and..... You're done! That's it! Your phone now runs official(kinda) Jelly Bean(4.1)!"
Does this mean that when the process of updating is finished, the phone will be switched off automatically and I will have to reboot the phone when it is still connected to the pc as I normally switch on my phone by pressing the power button?
I am sorry if I have asked something silly but I need your guidance.
Hi Sameer,
One more query. Do I need to remove my memory card and SIM before updating also?
Thanks.
Reporting back the progress:
So finally I have updated my device successfully and noticed some changes and I will need your approval whether these changes are normal or if not, how to correct them.
1) The model number of the phone is showing ME865 now instead of MB865 (my old mode before update). Is this correct?
2) The new android version is 4.1.2. Is this the correct version which belongs to leak3?
3) When I called first after updating, the call was not connected and I got a Chinese voice message.
4) I can still see Chinese language here and there, though I changed it to English.
Please let me know if I have done it correctly or do I need to follow some more steps to completely make it to function properly?
Somebody please reply.
All is correct, no Worries,

Thanks Sameer. You helped me a lot. I really appreciate that.
I have few more questions for you, please reply if you can....
1) The latest version of Jelly Bean is 4.3. So is it possible to update to the latest version?
2) Can I re-install the JB update using the same method again, if any issue with the device?
3) If I factory reset the device, will the android version be changed to ICS again?
Sorry for bothering you.
Thanks again for all your support.

In fact i have never flashed 4.3 before. But i had 4.2 & kk roms flashed succesfully, and i'm using KK(cm11) right now. You can search the Atrix2 Android Development section for some threads of instructions on how to flash a 4.3 rom.

Hi Ricokowalski,
Nothing is better if there is any possibility of using KK.
Do you have any link with clear instructions to a beginner for how to do that, keeping in mind that I have already used JB leak 3 using RSD Lite? I will appreciate any help in this regards.
Moreover why I see this line in your message "Sent from my MB865 using XDA Free mobile app" because after updating my device shows ME865 instead of MB865 but yours is still showing MB865?
Thanks once again for your reply.
Firstly you need to get your phone rooted. Then you have to install a cunstom recovery. Most roms support the BMM(Boot Menu Manager) custom recovery. You can also install multiple Roms by BMM.
If the BMM runs normally on yoir phone, i think it is possible to flash roms.
You can access the BMM instructions here↓
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49231803
I think that should be enough for a beginner to use BMM fluently.
And about the device name, i think it is because the build.prop file changed because of the JB leak you flashed. So your device name is changed too.
However i have noticed that some Roms had stated that people should flash them on stock ICS rom and i wonder if it is also safe to flash on JB leak. Afterall, it is dangerous to flash a custom rom.

That some roms are, non kexec 4.2.2 roms only !! (These non kexec rom needs stock ICS rom as ur primary rom)
All kitkat roms are kexec roms which can be flashed with BMM whether you have jb leak installed or stock ICS installed as ur primary ROM (system 1)
And its not dangerous to flash a custom rom

Nice to see your reply Sameer.
I updated to the JB leak3 with the help of the link you provided and I really appreciate your help since a beginner like me could update using RSD Lite and the leak file without knowing abcd of the whole story.
I would really appreciate if you can provide any further assistance in order to update to kitkat using RSD Lite since I am aware of the process of update using this method.
So can I do the same to update to kitkat using the same method?
If so, can you please assist me in doing so.
As you know my device is now on JB leak 3, will I be able to continue from here to kitkat?
Any further help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

No Sameer. Probably you mistaken me. I know that there might be threads addressing the same issue, but being a novice I cannot decide myself that which one to follow and that's why I requested you to help me to decide about the right method since I trust you. As I am not still clear that is installing BMM necessary for updating to kitkat or can't it be done using RSD Lite as I previously did with JB leak 3?
And don't worry, you are not being rude at all as I can understand this because I am also a forum guru and I know the feeling when OP asks more and then either I don't have time to reply or I am not willing to reply. So never mind. I will try and see if I can find something useful myself.
Thanks for all your support so far. :good:
