[ROM][ODIN][LEAK] T959VUVKF2 - Galaxy S 4G Bootloaders Removed

This is a re-post from Krylon360 @ his new site
Disable Voodoo before flashing this!
This is a new leak for the Galaxy S 4G. Krylon has removed the bootloaders for safety. Flash at your own risk and REMEMBER this is a LEAK so dont expect a PERFECT ROM!
Use ODIN or Heimdal to flash
Thanks Chainfire for decrypting for me.

I learned my lesson last time. I'll wait until someone needs me for testing or a good rom comes up.

haha Chadster
I just tried this right now, there is an ISSUE. When it boots up right after splash screen looks live a video driver issue. gets to t-mo jingle then freezes then shutsdown. SO YES, FLASH WITH CAUTION

KF2 Modem
I extracted the KF2 Modem and made flashable.

so did you get any luck with that rom?

how come when unzipping it the file name is kf1?

outgoing call log works thank god and wifi bars are strong a little diffrent than the first release

This is great news. Means that they are actively working on 2.3 and that the KF1 leak wasn't just an isolated thing.
Will flashing this (without the .pit) cause a data wipe? Anyway to load this up without losing data?
This isn't rooted and there's no super simple way to root it, right?

there is only one file within the zip. It will wipe the device, thats what backups are for.

Im glad to see that even though krylon360 switched sites its great to see he'll still let his workbe shared with us. Thanks fknfocused and krylon360.

Ok. So which one of you is correct?
And what good is a backup without root ability to restore the backup?
Last time I asked about the wipe, a couple of people confidently said that using ODIN ALWAYS wipes data. I am pretty sure that I upgraded to the current stock ROM using ODIN without a wipe, plus have updated my Vibrant a few times via ODIN without a wipe.
So what's really correct here?

One last cry for help for my Infuse 4G (Rogers)

One last cry for help before I honestly take this phone in my garage and go to town on it with a sledge hammer!!!!
I bought this used Infuse 4G (Rogers). But I can't do I clean wipe to get rid of the previous owner's information, this google account is driving me crazy , it keeps trying to login to the guy's account and putting in my own google account doesn't do any good either because it still asks for the original account's password when i try accessing the market. So, a clean wipe/factory reset would be the ideal thing to do i believe. A traditional Factory Reset through Setting>Privacy>Factory Reset would just freeze my phone on a multi-colored screwed up screen and nothing happens until i reflash. Trying to wipe through ROM Manager (manual management) also does the exact same thing.
I am currently on this rom ..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1193927 .... Its the only one that works besides the AT&T 2.3.5 (but i can't root that one).
Anyways, people have suggested gtg_ultimate_unbrick, but all that does is freezes my phone on the black samsung screen.
Please guys, I know this can be done .... But I'm not exactly an expert, as a matter of fact, I'm a noob to Android phones.....lol

where does it freeze when you do the ultimate unbrick. Did it simply not boot after you odin'ed back to stock?

If you are rooted you can't and on a ron you can't do a manual factory reset. Boot into recovery wipe factory and cache and dalvik then flash a rom or Odin back to stock then you'll be good

Odd that you still have there account after flasHing roms unless you did a backup and restore with cwm or titanium.
Have you tried a factory reset from settings> privacy? This will wipe the internal sd card so backup any media or other files on it to the external one.

Stool of this was very weird, there is no reason a Rogers infuse should have multi color junk or broken recovery. I'll bet the last owner tried to flash something they shouldn't have. Glad it got to a point that you can use it though. Hope it is the last issues you have with it.

[Guide] Best Way To Flash A Rom Without Having Problems

The best and easiest way to flash a rom without having any bugs or flaws,etc.
follow this to a 'tee' and you will have no problems, guarantee you.
Instructions:
1. Download .rar from link and extract it
http://www.multiupload.com/FO6TA6OBAH
2. open odin
3. put pda into the pda, phone into phone (their all in the respective folders)
4. let it finish wiping your phone and everything
5. once your phone boots, back up everything on your internal sd
6. go into settings and do a factory reset then let the phone reboot
7. put the rom you want to flash onto your sd card
8. turn off the phone and go into download mode (both volume buttons then plug in your usb cord.) flash gtg's community kernel. (in the root folder, put that .tar into the pda section) let it finish converting the partions.
9. once it finishes and boots up do this:
turn off phone, then:
using three button method. (volume up, volume down, power button. once you see samsung label release power button and keep holding volume buttons til you see your touch buttons light up, thats the way i figured out when to release them)
10. once the red screen appears, do: wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache
11. install zip from sd card, choose the rom that you placed onto your sd card

good job. works for me!

Which version of flashing stock does this use? Gtg unbrick?
Sent om my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App

Haha, the best way is NEVER using ODIN. Heimdall is much much better.
And why would you return to stock before every flash?

A clean slate. I use to do this all the time with my Captivate. Never had any problems installing any rom. Still do it now with the Infuse, and no problems installing any rom or Hellraiser Hybrid rom.

Never did it with the Captivate, never do it with the Infuse, never had any problems. You have a clean slate every time you flash a ROM as long as you wipe all the data and cache partitions. The system partitions are already overwritten with the flash itself. Basically going back to stock is just doing the same thing twice. Unless you are having some big problems and want to drop back to all stock files to see if you can fix a problem, it's generally unnecessary and just a waste of time. I mean, it doesn't hurt if you want to, it's just redundant.
All you gotta do is flash your ROM from Heimdall or CWM, wipe your data and cache partitions, boot up and you're done. As clean and fresh of a slate as it gets.

I was once watching a youtube video on how to flash and he said something very simple, "wipe, fix, delete, get rid of, whatever. Old school rom flashing: make sure that you knock out everything so that you start on a fresh slate." Jordan is definitely right and knows much more than I. But I agree with AJerman that says its redundant. Just my two cents.

Jordan would you recommend using this method if you just got and rooted an infuse?
(have a warranty replacement on the way )

Using this method coming from Darky in an attempt to flash the FusionXII ROM, i recieved the message "installation aborted" after clockwork mod started and then ended the flash of the file. any advice? i cleared both data and dalvik in that order.
- Thanks

Odin back to Froyo, then Odin one of the gingerbread leaks, Odin entropys kernel, turn phone off and get into cwm and flash Fusion. Make sure to wipe data as well.

[Q] Just purchased used & rooted/modded phone, what do I do first

Hello,
First time poster in this section. I just purchased a SGS4G on Swappa. It's coming rooted with Valhalla Final.
I am planning to get the Walmart/TMob $30 per month plan. I've rooted and flashed my Asus Transformer, but this is my first time with a phone.
So kind of wanted to know my best course of action? I was kind of leaning towards reset to factory, then go ahead and go through the steps to get Valhalla Black. But the rooting/flashing methods are a bit more complicated than what I was doing with my Transformer.
Thank you,
Anton

if it's already running Valhalla, there is no need to go back to factory. You can just flash the new rom through CWM.

Ok, wasn't sure if it was better to clean things up. I will do it that way then. Thank you.

i would recommend flashing to stock first, formatting everything and then moving forward from their. yea, its harder, but it would give you a nice fresh install and can prevent problems in the future

If you go back to true stock then you will lose root. However, there are plenty of modified kernels and ROMs that come with root.
Check out bhundven's One-Click collection. Super easy way to flash the phone. The first one click is straight stock. The 3rd is stock with his beta 2d kernel which also has CWM, root, and voodoo lagfix. I'd suggest snagging the 3rd one, do a factory reset on the phone, flash the 3rd one, then you should be able to throw Valhalla back on it the way you want

what i did... Just me but i would always have that one click flash back to stock always available on your pc Its just me dude you never know what can go wrong.. always keep that back door available.. odin was like my best buddy "ugh" when i first started out..

There is a 1 gig internal storage space where the system (ROM, cache, etc) resides. You can install some apps on your sd card (16 gig separate removable space) to save space on the system storage. All of your files, pics, and music end up on the sd card.

He is running valhalla final....there is no reason for him to be concerned with bootloaders at this time when all he wants to do is flash valhalla black.....this doesnt need to be made more complicated than it is...specially for someone new.....this phone is alot more durable and hardy than alot of you guys give it credit for and are only scaring the new people

Your right. It doesent need to be complicated. Nor is it.
One click back to "stock with beta2d", flash desired gb rom.
Not only does this ensure that he knows the true state of the entire device (not just what rom he is on) he also learns how to recover from a soft brick! <~~~ very important when flashing beta roms such as black edition

Lol ok yea your right...ive always pushed the limits and learned the hard way.....ive found that to be the best way to learn...
and for someone new to any device....i wouldnt be flashing beta roms....valhalla final is a great stable rom....you should stick with it and just spend the next month reading up on your newly purchased phone first.
Dont worry the developement for this phone is slow compared to most so your not gonna miss much.
Only prob ive seen so far in this forrum is there is alot of clutter and to many different opinions on how and what to do and use to flash roms and and such...it is actually very easy...just pick a way and stick with it and learn the other ways slowly....but dont worry....the galaxy s series is virtually unbrickable

[Q] Tons of problems with my Charge, any help?

I recently bought a charge off of ebay and it came in and I noticed it had an Gmail account still synced with it.
Ok I thought, I'll just remove it. I go to remove the account and it says that "some apps require this account to remove this account you need to reset phone to factory defaults".
Alright so I go to do that and the phone reboots after I wiped data/cache and I go to add my account and realize that the other account is STILL THERE. So I do the wipe a few more times and still stays there.
By this time I figured I would root the phone and install CWM and try and wipe data that way. That still didn't work and I just started trying to get a stock rom back installed and finally I did. Except the ACCOUNT WAS STILL THERE, but now I'm getting a ton of FC's ranging from google apps to other processes. I've tried to install different rom's/CWM's/kernels in ODIN on my Window's laptop and I would alwasy just get the talking voice saying things like "converting data partition" and then it would just boot back into the stock but keep force closing.
I am now using my Macbook Pro on spring break and am trying to fix this using Heimdall but i've still had no luck. Is there anyone that can help me with this?

Okay so it seems like you're sorta familiar with this kind of stuff so this shouldn't be too much trouble for you. You're going to need to go back to stock EP4D ROM and re-partition your device. Here is the link to where you can solve this problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111486
You're going to have to use Odin (You're going to need Windows to run Odin) fit this because Heimdall just doesn't cut it and personally I've never used it. Get Odin 1.82, it works really well with the Charge. Download stock EP4D and also the charge.pit file from the posted link. Place stock EP4D md5 file in PDA in Odin and charge.pit in PIT. Make sure you have Re-Partition checked and Auto-Reboot and F.Reset Time UNCHECKED and press start. It will reconfigure everything and basically give you a brand new phone on the inside. Hope this helps and if you have any more questions just go back to the link to Imnuts' thread I posted.

Make sure you have Re-Partition checked and Auto-Reboot and F.Reset Time UNCHECKED and press start. It will reconfigure everything and basically give you a brand new phone on the inside. Hope this helps and if you have any more questions just go back to the link to Imnuts' thread I posted.

Before I do that, which will be in a few days as I'm without a windows computer until at least wednesday. I am able to get into CWM. I installed a TweakStock but upon boot I get FC's like crazy. One after another continuously. I can't do anything. Is there anything I can do to get this working without using Odin? Thank you so much for your help as well.

No problem man I'm glad to help. If you want you can try a full data wipe. Boot into CWM and mount everything i.e. \system, \data, the whole nine yards and then wipe data/factory reset, and also wipe cache partitions and Dalvik cache. Then install whatever ROM you have available and see if that works. Otherwise you're SOL until you get a Windows computer and can Odin back to stock and re-partition everything.
EDIT: Just to clear something up, to mount everything scroll down to 'mounts and storage' in CWM.

Yeah, you need to run the pit file. Might be best to go back to original froyo + pit.

Froyo won't be necessary, just take the GB OTA file, the PIT, and use SamsungPST in bootcamp.

I tried this, still didn't work. I've tried using both ODIN and PST.

You're not the only one.

Make sure you Odin Tweakstock and flash cwm imosey kernel 4.0 (http://rootzwiki.com/topic/3426-kernel-gb-imoseyon-kernel-stock-repacked-v400-11611/ ) installed on your phone. Download and install "voodoo control app". In this app go into advance and put 2 checks in for ext4 settings, reboot your phone and report back the results.

It's actually not Voodoo Control anymore. Supercurio updated it to just Voodoo Sound.

This didn't work. I installed TweakStock and the kernel booted up and I got instant force closes that didn't allow me to do anything.

Did you ever try the first froyo build with pit?

Yes, I did. I've heard of "spamming the pit file". Does anyone know how to do this?

I think your partition is mess up due to ext4. I have an idea, why don't you flash the new CM9 ICS rom, this will auto reconvert yours to ext4. You have nothing to loose at this point. Make sure you MOUNT SYSTEM before flashing.

Good luck.
