You could also search google for 'xda kernel repack'.
Unpack the initramfs, update the su and Superuser.apk, and repack the kernel.
Tada, no more su problems, and when it gets out of date, you can fix it yourself

Lol i think id rather flash the binary file seems easier lol no offense

Well does your phone have clockworkmod recovery? If it does then all you do is download that file put it on the root of your sd card then reboot into recovery and then flash it there then reboot the phone and that's it

I have the Samsung Exhibit 4G and Clockworkmod is not friendly with the Samsungs. Not sure if it would work. I have tried doing it the stock Samsung recovery and it gives me errors. It gives signature verification fail.
Thanks.

We have clockworkmod running on the Samsung Galaxy SG4 for some time now, though I don't know if anything like that is available for the Exhibit 4G.
The signature verification error is normal via standard 3E recovery. I know it can be toggled on/off within CWM though I'm not sure if/how with standard recovery.

Got it fixed.
ok. I got it fixed. Here are the steps:
1) Download and install the SuperUser Fixer. Force it to run.
2) Update to the newest SuperUser.
3) In the settings, update the SU binary from there.
Done and fixed.
Thanks.

[ClockWorkMod] for the SGS4G Public Beta 3 [05/12/2011]

Code:
Beta2 change log:
complete rework of recovery.fstab.
rework of recovery source
CWM now fully up to date with latest version
and more
drhonk and I are proud to bring to you CWM3 for the SGS4G.
Now, before I post this, We are not responsible for any bricks.
Issues:
/system mounts, however it doesn't unmount to be able to format during a restore.
What works:
FULL ROM FLASHING!!! Backup, Advanced Restore of Data and Cache, Flashing zips (mods, boot animations, kernels, modems, etc), Error reporting and everything else but full restore due to the system issue.
How to get to recovery: Power Menu Mod, Quick Boot App, adb reboot recovery, 3 button salute.
What you will need to do:
Use Root Explorer, Android Commander, Droid Explorer or what ever else is out there to replace the recovery binary in /system/bin with the one attached. This will allow you to flash the update.zip from stock recovery.
After the file is replaced reboot the phone.
Put the update.zip on your external SD, boot into recovery and choose the 2nd Option to flash update.zip from SD.
This will boot you into CWM.
Biggest change from 2.5.1.2 to 3.x:
your normal zips will not work on this CWM or any future CWM for that matter. CWM3 has been updated to only allow edify updater-scripts. You will need to modify all of your update-scripts to be in the edify format. I will need to find a link on how to do this and post it in this thread.
More updates to follow. This is just to hold everyone over for now. Again, please do not complain that you can not restore or ( flash a full rom (untested)). This is a known issue, and is actively being worked on. drhonk and I worked on this all day and are tired.

I will not request this to be added to RM until it is FINAL. Please do not attempt to contact Koush to have it added; I will just ask him to remove it. This is only to keep you guys tied over for now.
BIG BIG THANK YOUR to drhonk for keeping my ass working on this. LOL

Awesome job on getting this up and running guys. I'm having problems getting it to work. I have followed your instructions to the "T" and I get the signature verification failed error. I replaced the the recovery.bin file in the /system/bin and rebooted and then placed the update.zip on the root of the SD card and booted into recovery and when I try to use the update zip I get that error.

Not sure if this is the correct fourm but since i didnt see a tech support forum figured this might be the most logical spot to put it.
My current device is a Samsung galaxy s 4g
Carrier T mobile
Rom
[ROM][CWM] T959VUVKD1 - Deodexed FIXED
Flashed with Odin3 v1.7
The issue i had is i wanted to install the bali kernel onto the phone i downloaded the 2.1 kernel from the forums non UV version but i don't know how to flash it. I tried to find it in the forums but i don't really see any clear directions how to flash it some say clockwork don't have it don't know how to install it. Sorry for my nubness. Then i did try to flash it using odin3 which soft bricked the phone phone computer with a little line going though it. Fixed that without much issue.
Id like Try out non stock kernels and i love what u guys do with the roms but i guess im a little stumped cause i don't know how to eather a find the missing apps i needed or how to flash it properly though odin3. If im totally off the mark im sorry and please forgive me again for my noobness.

OK your probably gonna here some $h1t for not searching but I'll Hook you up. OK you need to go to the cwm final post by krylon360. That will get you cwm. Once u have cwm setup you will boot into recovery and select reinstall packages, this puts you into cwm.
Know to flash the kernel go to "install zip from sdcard" and locate the zip( Bali kernel ) and confirm installation. Let it do its thing and BAM you have Bali kernel. HOPE THIS HELPS YA.
**edit**
To navigate in recovery and cwm use the volume keys to go up and down and power to select.

Ok, so i'm switching up this thread to be the deodexed and rooted version of the rom seeing as the official was released via KIES apparently. So go here and download this NOW.
Remember, disable Voodoo as it says in the post.
Credits:
Krylon for the ROM
Whitehawkx for deodexing
Chainfire for decryption (sorry for not crediting originally, i got so excited i didn't read the rootzwiki post where whitehawkx credited you -.-)

From a sammy with no hammy only jammy..
I got the KG4 kernel to work with the new leak, which let me restore my data and flash the deodexed KG6 leak, but once I booted KG6 with the KG4+cwm kernel, it f'd up, so I'd say wait for a proper custom KG6 kernel.

Hi,
This is my first ever Samsung phone, and let me just say. It very different from HTC.
-infact this isnt even my phone, its my mom's. And its laggy like crazy.
Could you guys explain some things to me,
- voodoo
- "red" cwm
- modems (im guessing radios)
- ODIN
Or even better if you guys can just walk me through on how to flash this one certain rom link
I know i sound like a noob, and i agree that i am in terms of Samsung phones.
THe phone is already rooted, and its running Stock + Root
So could you guys please help me, T_Mobile wont, but i know the helpful XDA community will.
Thanks Sooo Much in Advance!!!

Follow the link above to get cwm final. Make sure you push the files to the correct spot as mentioned in the post. After that just download icbinb and flash through cwm. Before your flash make sure your mounts are like so
Unmount cache
Mount data
Mount sdcard
Unmount system
This is how the mounts should look before you flash and before rebooting after the flash. Hope this helps ya and good luck

With cwm final (orange cwm) there is no voodoo. But once you install the Bali kernel cwm will turn red and give you another option which is voodoo. Know to dissable voodoo you just need to navigate to voodoo once in cwm(red) and make sure it is dissabled. Youll see what everyone is talking about once you get a rom with Bali kernel or just flash Bali kernel with any froyo ROM.

I appreciate all your help.
Ive tried this multiple times with multiple sd cards. Not making a difference. I will look into to this issue still.
Till then im just stuck on stock........
I dont really like Samsung anymore. This was soo much easier on HTC phones, no ODIN, no Voodoo, none of that stuff.......
im going to odin one more time, see if that helps
EDIT: Seems like it worked didnt give me any issues this time!!!!!
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH.
im going to hunt down all of your posts and "Thank" them all
But first let me let it reboot
Glad you got it. And just to give you the heads up it is rumored that kd1 has a bad system partition and has caused issues with other user myself included. I personally cant say that it is or if its just ghost in the machines but somtimes it ok and somtimes not. So I would recommend grabing the kc1 stock for Odin if you havent already.
Also if you plan on sticking with the sgs4g I would recommend checking out the sgs4g Bible in the developers section of our forum. I appreciate the thanks and happy modding

+1... I would have just told him to spend some time reading on the site rather than asking someone to play tutor. You are clearly more patient than I am.

Well seeing as im a poor fella(as in not much money) this is how im trying to pay back the community for the great roms, mods and themes I use. Plus at one point we were all like wtf how do we do that? But its cool this is the only forum I visit or post on. Well this and rootzwiki. All you guys have helped me tremendously and I want to pass that help onto others. Happy modding sgs4g community.

Cwm not fixing permissions?

Since I flashed sky ics I haven't been able to fix permissions like I was on a stock rooted rogers phone. Gives me an error everytime. Any ideas?

I have 37.0mb free in system/bin could that be why?

Nope. Update Busybox. IDK
Hmm is there a flash or rom for busybox since the program isn't doing it

By "program" do you mean the app? If not, download the app from the market (Play Store).
Or, just fix permissions in ROM Manager. Works every time for me.
That's the issue I'm having is that rom manager/cwm isn't fixing permissions

It is impossible to fix permissions unless busybox is installed properly.
Yup, needs busybox. Download the app and install it.
PS--When people say cwm on this site they mean cwm recovery, not rom manager. Not everyone uses the term correctly of course, but just thought I'd let ya know.

True, I understand that. Not trying to be a jerk by pointing that out, it's just very confusing to those of us trying to help when people get this mixed up.
I've been using rom manager for a long time but I'm pretty sure this confused me at first too. :beer:

That's why i always just say "recovery". That and a lot of people use other recoveries.

I had the same problem. If you are on cwm touch I don't know why but you must have busybox 1.21. If not rom manager is gonna hang up every time.

well ill take note of those differences aha thanks for the heads up, and im gonna try installing the 17b update and see if that fixes my issues
just a quick edit:
when i do go into busybox its the free version and it says "BusyBox null is installed" then "Busybox is installed to sh:<stdin>[1]:not found"
then gives me the option to install 1.20.1
so do i need to spend the money to upgrade to busy box pro?

I didnt. I just went to the market and typed busybox downloaded the app and installed it that way... the app just says busybox not busybox installer. I think stericson is the app dev on the one I'm talking about....

holy sweet bleep it worked, i dont know how but it finally installed lol.
I went to update to 17 on sky ics, it was taking forever in recovery so i rebooted the phone, tried busybox again and it said it was SUCESSFUL!!
Edit
Lol so I noticed I had to do a delvik cache clear to get busy box to install but even after install and permission rewrite it still won't install 17 for me
aha well thanks for your help everyone.
