Noob to SGS4G for T Mobile... - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Okay people I just bought this phone and I'm coming from MyTouch 4G. I've been reading for the past 2 days about how to flash a SGS4G and honestly,..it's crazy! Little overwhelming to be Honest...to the point, I rooted my phone with Superoneclick, I have superuser, so I know it's rooted. Plus, I have Titanium Backup running on my phone. Everything is still FACTORY SET on the phone. It is running 2.2.1 Froyo. I did read about Froyo udate zip CWM and recovery and have downloaded them. My question is since I want to flash A Rom does it have to be Froyo only? If there is such a thing?? Or can it be Gingerbread 2.3.6? And is there anything else I need to download? I know I have to follow to the tee on the OP that the Dev. says to do. I just want to be sure exactly what I need to do..

The gb ext4 starter pack saved me alot of headache when I first got this phone. Hands down it is the best way to go. Just make sure you follow the directions exactly. Its guides like this and the people that make them that make XDA so great.

I'm new to it as well and like you are saying, it's overwhelming to root and flash on this phone. But I followed the GB starter pack the other day and included the Vahalla Final rom as my choice and everything worked great. Some things actually happened a hair different than described and I thought it screwed up but it worked.
But I think I just screwed up trying to do a restore

I'm on the same boat as the OP, I have a mytouch 4g and my cousin is about to upgrade soon, so she offered to sell me her galaxy s 4g for $75 so I'm gonna take up on it.
I've been spying on the forums here and have noticed that most of your guys' roms are gingerbread roms, (i didn't really bother to search, for I don't know for sure I'll keep this phone or sell both my mt4g and this new phone for a galaxy s ii), but anyways, I saw something about porting roms from the other galaxy phones, am I right?
I haven't seen any ics roms here yet, but I took a look at the vibrant forums and it appears they have an ics rom and i was wondering would porting the ics rom from the vibrant be possible if I wanted to try. Thanks

Most will tell you if you want a rom ported do it yourself. The devs are working on what they are working on. It isn't really our place as end-users to make request (my opinion of course) rather be grateful for all the awesome **** they have done and are working on. So no... it isn't easy.
And yes --> We have some fantastic ROMS.

Rooting Mesmerize already running 2.3.4?

I picked up a Mesmerize yesterday and was surprised to find it already running 2.3.4. I'm not sure if that's already a common thing on these, but coming from the Captivate world (still have it for personal use, the Mez is for work) it seemed very surprising.
Anyway, I definitely want to root this thing and get rid of the bloat; Is there a specific process for rooting these things with 2.3.4? I keep seeing stuff for Eclair and Froyo, but am unsure if GB uses the same Z4Root process or not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Good luck.. there is NO development going on for this phone.

There doesn't appear to be any way for users to root GB on our phones at the moment. The only solution that I've found presented so far is to flash a pre-rooted ROM.

The developers didn't want to get fisted.
To the best of my knowledge, you basically have to flash in a rooted image - the older root exploits used apparently were finally patched in 2.3.

I've counted about 10 or so Gingerbread ROMs available for the Mesmerize, 2 AOSP and the rest TW-based. Roughly half have had some sort of activity within the month.
Oh yea and CM7.1 just dropped this morning, so yes there is still dev for this phone............
Anyone actually looking check out rootzwiki.com its got a decent mez section. Also if u have a new eh09 outta the box it wont except anything below eh09. Weird modem issues.

ya i'll have to disagree too, there are lots of TW and non-TW based roms out there, personally I use MIUI...honestly unless u have to root specifically for an application and don't want to use a custom rom rooting the stock rom is useless, since the mes has an unlocked bootloader you can just flash clockwork whenever you want and load whatever rom suits you.

[Q] Help with Gingerbread installation...

Okay I literally just got this phone yesterday and I see all this talk about Gingerbread and how great it is so I decided I want to try it. I know next to nothing about all the technicalities about this phone so I youtube'd how to do it and found this video that I plan to use to help me in the process. - watch?v=YuURgkUYn1A
So if I follow that process and use the files he uses, I should have Gingerbread and still have my connection to AT&T, GPS, and WiFi? Also, when AT&T finally does release it officially, will I be able to just go to Software Update on the menu and get the official AT&T Firmware and not have to worry about all this technical stuff again?

Try THIS link out, its got pretty much everything you want to know to get started(including vids). The only things that don't work on GB currently HDMI and on some of the roms, bluetooth. If you want to get the official OTA when it drops you will have to go back to stock, easiest way is to use THIS method. Also when GB does drop, Devs most likely will make their own roms based on the official GB.
Once your rooted and have recovery installed use THIS thread to find the ROM you want...
This is just a rough overview, so make sure you READ carefully and take your time, any question you have is usually answered in the appropriate thread.
Here is a link to the latest AT&T Gingerbread leak. Use Odin to flash it, and if you stick with the included stock kernel, everything works as it should. It looks very close to being ready for release. If you want it rooted, flash Entropy's kernel and then use CWM recovery and the Superuser zip you can find on here to install su. Then, flash the stock kernel again to keep everything working (video, bluetooth, etc.).:

That's legit Dman, it seems you learn a new trick on a daily basis; ports, roms and now kernels. I'm loving how the infuse development is still kickin!
So back on topic lol. Xia, Dman's CatyRom is one of the most recent GB roms (and plenty more), it's based off of the leaks from At&t. Once your ready, look into that!
Edit: Nevermind my question, dman, thanks anyway for what you're doing.
To the OP, a good AOSP Gingerbread rom that I keep coming back to is Serendipity VII. I hope that MikeyMike will still come back to update that one when we get the official AT&T Gingerbread.
You can find that here.: http://serendipityinfuse.weebly.com/

ROM and Kernel

Hello First time poster , but ive been reading for a while now. Im a complete noob, but i successfully rooted my phone through the guides here, so ive done some extensive searching through the forum.
I really like my rooted infuse, but i totally envy my gf's gs2 . I wont be able to renew my contract until next year, so for now, i want to use my phone to its full potential. Opinions are welcomed,
I basically have a rooted stock phone running froyo 2.2.1. Read through a bunch of comments how froyo operated better than GB on the infuse, what are your thought on that?
Reason i ask is because i would like to run a custom rom, i really like MIUI, CM7, and ZEUS. I went through endless pages but im tied between them.
Which would you recommend. Im looking for performance, style and stability. I know its a matter of opinion, but im open to what many have to say.
Bit a confusion too, since i have a rooted 2.2.1 froyo will doing a custom rom automatically, upgrade me to gb or even maybe ics.
I also have seen in some threads where many mention that some of the roms come with a custom kernel already. Which ROMs would those be?
Im a noobie, but i did search the forum. You can lead me into the right direction that'd be great
Please and thank you
-Smiggs
First off, welcome to the forum. When it becomes to roms it all depends on ur liking. We have a lot non official custtom GB roms. This is the beaty about android, flash until u find the one you like and that goes for modems and kernels. I would suggest to start flashing and keep reading. GL and I hope you the one for you.

so far what i got from it is,
-install 3e recovery
-clockword mod
-nandroid back up
-insert preferred rom to sd
-boot into recovery via clockword
-clear data/cache w.e
-install zip
-reboot
and done, did i forget a step? enlighten me please.
Another thing Zeus requires me to have a GB Bootloader, how would i go about doing that?

You're on the right track.
Get the roms and files downloaded to your pc and your phone.
might want to make a folder on your phone (ex:roms or flashhappy)
put all those files in there.
good to have entropy's latest kernel, superuser signed pak in doctorz roms too)
if you want, it may be simple also just to use sgskernel flasher from market, flash gtg infused kernel if you're on froyo and boot into cwm and go from there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220090
i have a fail safe method that i use. learn to use heimdall and install a driver on one port on your pc - and save that one port for only heimdall.
use adam's uckj4 heimdall package. flash it once, flash again with boot loader checked (this will give you gb bl) then flash defuse kernel in second post and then flash your rom

[Q] UnNamed Install Failed

Hello all,
Just got the Skyrocket about a month ago, it's rooted, but just got into the idea of installing anew ROM/Kernel and decided to try out UnNamed, then possibly install Faux123's Kernel.
I booted to CWM (5.0.2.6), backed up, wiped, wiped cache and tried to install from zip, but the install fails with Status 1. I have searched everywhere, but couldn't find anything about it. I am currently restoring the NANDroid backup I made prior to attempting to flash so I can use my phone.
Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated as I am brand new to the Android scene.

Well, back to researching other ROMs then.

Before I discovered XDA I started on Google and a lot of results came up for UnNamed and the Skyrocket like someone tagged the site/post/whatever incorrectly. As far as the research goes I want to look at what the different ROMs have to offer, any complaints or issues users are experiencing with them, etc. to make a decision as to which one I would like to install. Same thing with Kernels.

HTC inspire has pretty good development going on. I have that phone besidesthe ATRIX 2. Im a flashaholic too and I flash like crazy on that phone waiting and hoping development picks up for this phone! Kinda upset I got rid of my of ATRIX. Cause now a lot of development is goin on for that too.
The Inspire is old, though.

Im pretty sure the phones with the BEST development and going to be kinda old...
My vote would be either the international SGSII or one of its variants (I have i777 and things always seem to be booming over there).
Go get a Samsung phone, whichever is the latest one that AT&T has. They always have a TON of developers.
You know on the other hand you could just put in some time and learn and get some great ROMs in the process, lfaber06, cogery, and myself could really use the help, and it really is not all that hard, if you know anything about phones and flashing, and some about computers.
There is a thread in the development section on the tools needed to do this.

I would love to learn more about development, but at 52 it's all a bit overwhelming at times. I may have to find something in the 250.00 dollar range and try though.
