Hey guys!
I am.. new.
I have been here looking at the forums for about two months before deciding to register.. today.
I got a question.
This ICS ROM looks very interesting.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449649
I don't understand the installation steps..
I never flashed my phone before and i hope you understand.
So.. My phone is a Galaxy SL i9003
Baseband version: I9003JXKP3
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-CL982987
Build number: GINGERBREAD.JPKPH
Can anyone explain in detail the required steps to install the rom?
The phone isn't rooted.

yes, this is universal CF-ROOT, which can flash on all version of GB FW.
the addon is for the EXT4 conversion, which convert partition format.
this is to boost up you phone perfomance.
which you have to learn that, after you have know more on flashing
btw, after flash cm9, you already on ext4
What is the point of making wipe?? I didn't do it when I installed it. Shall I reflash the CM9 ROM or keep it like this???
Also another thing. Why I cannot overclock my phone?? When I had the stock rom I could overclock to 1.2Ghz with SetCPU, but now I can't.
Please help me.
Thank you.

wipe is to make sure phone reload the new rom.
CM9 kernel did not provide over clock

1: Flashed the Nordic I9103XXLQ9 ROM USIN Odin v3.07
2. Booted up once to the rom to check if its had installed correctly
3. Flashed CMW 4.0.0.1 with Odin
4. Done a factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik cache
5. Flashed the Rom and after the process was complete from CMW, i restarted the phone but got stock on the Galaxy R splash screen and the phone restarted back to CMW.
6. Tried to wipe cache and dalvic cache again but still the phone wont boot up.

First, u are coming from deodexed Rom.
Do one thing.. just install ur backup(if u took that one). Then install xxql9 using odin v 3.07(do run as administrator) & Then let it boot. Switch off the mobile and After that install CMW v4 & Then let it boot again. Again switch off ur mobile. Go to recovery install MOD rom. Dont wipe anything. It will do it by itself. Boot again. Let feel happy..

How to install this rom on stock GB?
I am currently on stock GB (Indian vesion). Can I directly flash this rom via CWM 4?? The Q&A in rom's post says there is no need to flash XXLQ9 first, but everyone is suggesting to flash that first?

Hi guys. Al thou this is my first post I've been flashing my i9003 for a year or so and i've never had any problems until now.
I have an stock gingerbread installed (XXKPQ) that I flashed using odin, kernel version (2.6.35.7-CL709629 [email protected] #1)
Just so you know, I'm from Argentina, and in order to be able to use 3g, had to keep the modem in I9003LUBKB1 version.
I also flashed cf root (by Skin1980) and I'm using CWM v1.80
I get the latest jellybam (1.3) from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972087
And followed the instructions in the official website : http://www.igio90.net/how-to-install/
Just in case you're too lazy to follow the link here are the instructions:
What to do if you are coming from a Stock, CyanogenMod, MIUI, AOKP and any other custom ROM different from JellyBam
-Download the latest revision of JellyBam ROM for your device
-Place the zip into your internal SDCard
-Boot into CWM recovery (Home+Power+Volume up until samsung logo appear)
-Wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe dalvik cache (Inside advanced tab)
-Install zip from internal SDCard
-Welcome to JellyBam!
(I had to wipe the data first and then put the zip in the sd card because wiping the data was erasing the jellybam zip)
The first time I run the installer it got stuck at 50% while installing sony's media player. So i just started the process again and uncheked sony walkman player, it installed "successfully".
When the phone restarted, it was just the old gingerbread, in the about phone panel, it was all the same that before installing jellybam.
So it obviously didn't installed. I can make calls, send and receive messages, wifi is working fine.
So can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong? Do i have to flash a jellybean kernel?, I dont really know hoe to do that but I'm sure there's more than one post around here that explains that process.
If this question has already been posted I'm really sorry, I did search for any post that could help me with this problem but I didn't find any real answer.
I really hope somebody can help me, and sorry for the bad english, I did study the language but it was a long time ago.
Thanks everybody, specially to developers, you're awesome.:good:
I think you should fist flash theJellyBam v1.1.0 alpha4 in order to repartition before flash the v1.3. hope it can help u.

First of all thank you for your helpful answer (I clicked the thank you button).
I have cwm version 5 and I have been having the same problem than the OP. I'd like to flash a CM rom before going on to JB 1.3 so my question is, knowing that I currently have an I9003XXKPR 2.3.6 rom, can I flash CM 10 or should I start by a previous version? And, if so, which one?
Thank you for your help.

i think you should start from zero. take a backup of your files, flash a stock rom and then use universal cf root to root your phone. then flash cm 10 alpha 4 and then the jellybam 1.3. that's the way i have flashed mine. i hope it helps.

Good luck! i hope you flash it correctly! just read and follow the instructions in the cm10 thread thoroughly so you can avoid any problems.
All custom rom unofficial, not compile, but directly modify our base cyanogen
It is recommended to start on a CM10 origin
Example A3 to A4
KPE> LF2> CF-LF2
Wipe Data / Factory Reset. (MUST DO THIS STEP)
Select the CM10 A4.zip from your SD Card and flash.
Auto rebooted into recovery (if it show error mounting / cache, and cant mount in manually mount and storage, do wipe / cache)
Go to Advanced -> Reboot Recovery
Select the CM10 A4.zip from your SD Card and flash again
Go to Advanced -> Reboot Recovery.
Mounts and Storage -> Format dbdata (you would not find this in CWM so just ignor 6)
8. reboot
You can then flash all based on Unofficial Alpha 4
Just do the basic procedure wipe
This a general question about apdating custom roms...
In cwm there is an option 'Update from sd' or something like that... What does it do?
Plus, If i have a rom installed into my phone, like for example a Version 1 of the rom. Do I have to wipe everything before installing version 1.1 or can I just flash it unto the other rom without wiping everything?Do I have to wipe only when a version 2 of the rom comes out? Ask the developer? EX. Real ics 5 to 5.1, to 5.2....
I have the same question for FXP cyanogen mod. If I have FXP149, Do I have to wipe everything before installing FXP150?
THANK YOU!

I have CWM 5.0.2.7. I want to upgrade from 2.3.6 Gingerbread to Android 4(PACMAN ROM preferred). I tried at least 50 - 75 times flashing >5 different ROMS, almost once bricked my phone... I found stable Gingerbread 2.3.6 and I am using it right now. I really want to upgrade to version 4, because I develop apps in Buzztouch and they will now support Android devices with Honeycomb or later. My question now is: how can I really upgrade to Android 4, because every ROM I flash is stuck at the first boot. Any help?
There is absolutely zero possibility of bricking your phone in flashing custom ROMs unless you do it in a wrong way (flashing other phone's ROM ). Same thing goes for bootloop. Wipe data,cache, dalvik cache and even format /system before flashing and also do wipes after flash. This way u can view a new dimension to the android world

I already knew everything you said, even more, but thanks for idea of formatting /system. Maybe that is the main problem. Thank you so much!
UPDATE! Nothing is working. I think I will give up on ROMing.
Lol which baseband are u on? Try to flash latest stock rom ie DXKT7 and then flash a custom rom.

I cannot find any with DXKT7 baseband. I am on XWKTI.
I got the same problem. Flashing from stock 2.3.6 XWKTI to any other cm 10.1 rom is not working. Clearing caches etc. does not help.
Any solution to this?
The latest rom I tried is cm-10.1-20130907-NIGHTLY-beni.zip. No luck so far.
What is wrong here?
Solved. I used the wrong CWM. beni_cwm-5_ext4_v2.tar does the trick.

The CWM you use might be a one which is not working. At least I used a CWM 5.0.2.7. But it was rfs which is not compatible with the S5670.
So install CWM beni_cwm-5_ext4_v2.tar and you will be able to install any custom rom without problem.

CF-Root-ext4-v1.3-Addon.apk from Chainfire, but it is not made for my phone.
It has options for converting ext4 to rfs and rfs to ext4, but I am scared to do that. How can I manually convert from rfs to ext4? And, will my system even boot after doing that?
Possible solution...
Hi,
I have successfully flashed cm-10.1-20130914-NIGHTLY-beni.zip using ClockWorkMod 6.0.2.7. I initially had problems getting cm 10.1 to boot, it would just stop at the cyanogenmod logo. I got this ROM to work by first flashing ╰☆╮ [ROM][CM7.2] JellyBread v5.0 | SURPRISE! UPLOAD COMPLETE! ╰☆╮. then flashing the nightly.
Good luck:fingers-crossed:.
Regards,
jemail
I wouldn't recommend installing ICS on a Galaxy Fit. The phone doesn't really stand that much of the ROM itself.. I use a rom that'll look exactly alike it, that's basically it. But I tried Lenio vQuattro. it seemed pretty nice If you really need to then try this rom. And it wouldn't be such a bad idea tp update CWM, or try another Recovery.

Good question.
I really got no answere to that question. But as far as I know there are CMW for rfs and for ext4/ext3 filesystems.
If you use the wrong CMW than the phone will hang in a boot loop after flashing. That's what I had.
So I suggest you should try different CMW. For rfs and ext4. Better to flash them with Odin. I used Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.42.exe.
As CWM try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24719114&postcount=1387 or this CWM http://androidlegend.com/dl/beni_cwm-5_ext4_v2.tar
One of these should work for you.
