Hey Fellas
i am putting together a central localized file location. well it is on my server and my question to those that are activily creating Roms is this. idea in question that is soon to be released to this forum group a master list of all mods, apps,scripts and Roms. but my problem is the amount of time i will have to download everyones releases and then hop to all the redirects to just get the files is alot of jumping around and thats a pain
.
I do not mind searching out your download links but it is very time consuming.
So as not to step onto a set of toes that may not like this idea please let me know if it is ok and or it is not ok with you.
i have a few today i will post the app, With a simple edit to the base roms it will allow all to be able to get your base rom and flash it then any and all updates you do can be accesable instantly from the handset..
So my question to you guys is if i add to the base application your creations is this something your against or does this sound good.
So as it is still early in the Rom database here will those that like to be added into this app shoot me a message and i will give you the files needed to support your Roms for inclusion.
This way i can do two otions either use my own server to host your file or link to your location to get the file.
Maybe other otions but for now i will go with plan A
This is not a creation by me as it has been done already, just not in the A2 thread. But i want to atleast show what others have done to this route and integrate nito our releases this open to all app.

Already i am getting dead links forr alot of the files you guys have released
I already am getting dead links to a;ready posted files.
I need current links so i can sort out the catagories of each rom and its sub parts.
Rom
Theme
Mods
Scripts
ect ect
Please do NOT include any of my stuff on your server!
I am fully capable of mirroring my OWN data, as needed. I do NOT want MY developed stuff anywhere that I do NOT have full authority and OR permissions to it.
no problem..
ok no problem ony way they get access is if they are currently running the rom and you make a new version then that user has can update the rom accoringly. maybe it is best i just post the files and let you decide if you like it .. seeing it is already a xda approved and deveoped app already.
if you like ill post up the files and screen shots of mine already? Hope that makes it easier to understand what i am asking .. seeing as it is already posted i guess i wanted to make the app database easily updated for the devs not users they get the apk file Devs get the master link xml files for the rom at cook time

You do know that all we (devs) have to do is let kholk know about our ROMS and give him the xmls, and he will make them vis-able and download-able from within ROM manager, including updates, right?
I know I really don't like that whole idea of ANOTHER app with our hacks and ROMS and such. isn't that what the XDA app provides EVERYONE already (a way to download ROMs and updates), so does ROM Manger, if you get the data to the right devs.
I will reserve my complete No for the time being and see what some other devs in here think about this, we may have to put our heads together as well...
Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike this idea, just that I think it is kinda redundant.
I'm gonna agree with Jim just for the simple point that I pay to have my work mirrored through mediafire. Its quick and saves me and everyone who downloads my work time, its fast and reliable and I dont have to worry about others having to provide mirrors.
dev section
dang i pay for 21.00 every 2 years for unlimited space and bandwidth and unlimeted sub domains but that is neither the point here i did post the app in the developers section and 3 files you use to keep it updated. do as you wish with the app . the original devs write up on XDA was good release to those interested..
all i need is links to files if you did not want it on my host.. but i will put yalls that have dead links into my app as you have it .. alot dead links guys its up to yall to figure it out then..
xda does not allow you to it from inside the phone except if your using say the xda this is a different way if you post a new update to your app it shows in the update in your roms area and option to dload it and flash it and run from there.. see post in dev section i posted the files..

Whatever you are smoking please pass it over here, because you CAN download ROMs onto your phone right from the XDA app, and save them to your SDcard, and ROM Manager WILL ask you if you want to flash it once it is downloaded. I do this ALL the time.

Hey Jim, if I install ROM Manager to flash roms from the SDcard (I like this idea) it wants me to install CWM Recovery -which I already have. I'm guessing to install roms from the app I choose RAZR as my device and install CWM for that...(?)

NO!!!! don't choose RAZR, choose to flash the bionic recovery. You MUST also have the Atrix2 bootloader, I use the ROM Manger paid version, so that I can do a few other things.

No they are two totally different things.
funny part is that i recall a few devs having a wiggy fit when a user posted a screen shot of his modded rom with out permission . and now that sombody does ask permission to set a data base of updated links for a people you mock that persons request.. that is why no one asks for help
So i guess say a person downloads cwm and installs your roms. that it by default says you updated to say ver 3 ?
Oh yea if i am running a older version of said rom it will magically alert with out ever logging into XDA.
I get rom manager does this but funny thing is it not for any [email protected] roms ive tested.. and ive used most of the posted roms..
Yall miss the point of the application . maybe you should try this and then comment .. it allows you or any person to add a update or addon dloads to be installed from a APK that is cooked into your roms that you all make . all that needs to be done is add a xml to system folder.
then when you make a updated ver of your rom it allows simple update ..
But hey flame the person that one that trys to make a rom a bit better for all ..
then why dont any of you add it to his current supported rom list.. that is my point here . it allows some customized options that are not allowed .... im trying to make a rom list and those links are posted for those that like to use your base that you posted to make new roms from or when you update to a new version its avail to those that want it.. if the optional xml is included from time of cooking your update that you add xml
But from now on i wont ask ask to get blessings from those that post roms to use it.. its pointless to ask cause when one does they get be-littled as it says in many areas lower in this thread..
People are to funny in this forum.. i am not saying you just pointing this out
I'd like to believe your intentions with this idea are nothing but good, but you have to understand these guys (devs) work long and hard on their work and reserve the right to approve/disapprove of such things. And though not everyone sees things as you might, respect their work and their decisions as to what happens to it and where it goes.
I've gotten tons of help from the devs by asking them for it. They've been nothing but helpful, despite your comment. And the forum is their place (and other's) to share/discuss/etc their roms/mods/themes/etc. If they wanted to compile everything into one particular site or app or whatever, they certainly would have already collaborated to do so.
Edit: I'm not trying to argue with you, nor am I trying to argue for developers. Its just my two cents worth. When you post something, you have to be open to discussion. Likewise, if you ask someone something, you have to be prepared for a 'no' when you're hoping for a 'yes'.

Can you please tell me why you continue to post telling people to use ROM manager? I know that you have used it, but there is no official release of CWM (FOR SGS4G models) inside of ROM Manager yet. Additionally, Edify is the current standard for CWM 3.x.x not Amend so why are you pointing people to use zip's not following edify scripting.
Furthermore, do you really have any proof that KC1 (AN UNRELEASED BUILD from Samsung) is MORE stable than the KD1 WHICH WAS released?
Again for people who just take your word and then mess up their phone it's not helpful.
I say ban. Already

There's no reason to be enthusiastic over a bad solution such as the one proposed in the OP.
My point for commenting wasn't to not be enthusiastic, the point is THIS PROCEDURE may work for the author, but it's not the recommended nor the proper way to use CWM. It's not the CWM designed for this device.
So pardon me to rain on the parade, preventing users from doing something to mess up their device.

Thank you for your comment. I'm a noob. I've been reading and rereading everything in our forum and to tell you the truth I'm am getting confused.
I definitely need the correct, easiest and simplest method. Not because I'm lazy. I'm just a brand new noob and if I screw up my phone I'm in real trouble.
I barely know the basics but I'm itching to mod my phone. I'm missing all the fun! Lol.
All this dialog concerning our current developments and different methods may be annoying to some of the more knowledgable but to a noob like me it is very informative.
Thank you all for your input.

P.S. its spelled didn't, that's and then.
Like joedeveloper said. Use the CWM from krylon. This is going to cause issues in the long run. The CWM from krylon is still beta, but that is the version you want. Not from the vibrant.

My first post was also towards the OP. I'm tired of seeing the blind lead the blind. It only leads to "I bricked my phone, HELP!" threads. I guess I was a little tired last night and didn't articulate my thought properly. I am only on this forum because I own the device and I try to help the actual devs (all 3 of them for this device) and also have current information on progress for this device. I'm not here to be led by the blind. Not saying that you are one of the ones who is blind because I really don't know you. either way I am not at all enthusiastic over this so called solution at all... I used odin to update my device the proper way as I have been using odin well over a year now. Which it seems to some makes ME a "rook" lol Ignorance is bliss... must be a Obama supporter too I bet.

Long time user of XDA, first time poster! This website has been a constant help and friend through all of the Flashing, Modding and Fixing I've done through my many Smart-phones (All the way back to the HTC StarTrek flip phone).
I have a question about the removal of 3e Recovery on the Samsung Infuse.
-I recently bought it broken and have since repaired the LCD. First thing I
wanted to do was load it up with some Cyanogenmod or the equivalent, and
that's when I Discovered a potentially NEW problem regarding the replacement
of the Recovery file.
-As it is a general rule, to check other threads before making a new one, I have
spent the last week scouring the Infuse page to try and find an answer to my
specific issue, and since none of the fixes posted work, I was wondering if y'all
could help.
-First of all, the Recovery file is not under the System/Bin folder like many of the
walk through videos and Threads mention, it is instead in the root of the phone.
-Secondly, When using Root Explorer to mount the root folder as R/W, I was able
to replace the "Recovery" file with the modified variation. However, whenever I
restart the phone, go into recovery via the 3 button hold, It still gives me the
unsigned error. I exit the Recovery and let it boot up normally, only to find that
the "Recovery" file has been replaced with the original.
-I figured maybe there was a backup on the phone that is auto-subbed in for the
modified file. I do a search for "recovery" via root explorer and find a few more
"Recovery" files. No matter which one I replace, upon reboot, they have been
swapped out for the original "recovery".
I am at a loss... Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have tried the Odin Methods to a T as well as the Heimdall method for recovery.
Thanks in Advance!

Not structured well? He clearly stated that he tried to find information to help himself, but was unable to. He explained his problem clearly and with good grammar. Hell, he even signed the bottom with his name. I understand people flaming the "omg how do I flash recovery lol I tried it bricked wat do" posts, but the only thing wrong with this is the wrong section, which isn't that big of a deal. People make mistakes.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA App
on one hand I don't know why we can't have development discussion in the development section. I thought we were here to share information on developing not just to showcase what we did... anyway that has been my problem with xda for a while. few poeple make tutorials on the original work and you can't ask questions about it if they dont. seems all the cooperation on xda happens outside of xda and the moderators enforce that so the "dev" section is really the rom download section..
but enough complaining, this wasn't a dev question in the first place. moving a file is hardly developing something. but that doesn't mean ya cant answer it as you tell the person to ask a mod to move it..
Samsung seems to have cought on to the 3e trick and changed something. at this point if the phone is preloaded with 2.3.6 you have to either downgrade through Odin or stop trying to do things the hard way and just flash a non secure kernel, you apparently already have root so just download sgs kernel flasher and use entropys DD kernel.
2.3.5 seems to be rootable throught the zerg rush exploit, 2.3.6 is very secure on the infuse. on future devices we may even have to wait for Sam firmware or other with access to samsungs fus server to provide a leak to get a kernel to dump the initramfs so non secure kernels can be compiled and flashed through Odin. that's just how it is.
I did in fact use the super thread. I tried every single thread listed and each one either soft bricked my phone or left me with a black screen when trying to enter recovery mode via the 3 button method. I then thought it might be an issue with the recovery file. This is when I discovered an issue where with 2.3.6 the recovery being replaced with the factory default file. At the very least, if there is no fix thus far, there should be a disclaimer that it doesnt work with 2.3.6. I apologize fot anyone who may have been pissed off, but I believe this IS a Development issue.
Thanks,
Corey Krattli
It Worked!
Doing the SGS kernel flasher and using Entropys Kernel did the Trick! I'm amazed as to why this isn't a thread in the SUPER THREAD in the Development section.

Its not a thread yet because its a new problem. You got help, don't complain. Next time, post in q&a, and look there for similar threads first.

Thanks man
Just going to state except you may not ise it but hdmi does not work on the DD.
Ditto
I have the same problem, and I think it's an issue with 2.3.6. I've searched xda and spent about a week sorting through Google results, but haven't found a solution yet.

Long time user of XDA, first time poster! This website has been a constant help and friend through all of the Flashing, Modding and Fixing I've done through my many Smart-phones (All the way back to the HTC StarTrek flip phone).
I have a question about the removal of 3e Recovery on the Samsung Infuse.
-I recently bought it broken and have since repaired the LCD. First thing I
wanted to do was load it up with some Cyanogenmod or the equivalent, and
that's when I Discovered a potentially NEW problem regarding the replacement
of the Recovery file.
-As it is a general rule, to check other threads before making a new one, I have
spent the last week scouring the Infuse page to try and find an answer to my
specific issue, and since none of the fixes posted work, I was wondering if y'all
could help.
-First of all, the Recovery file is not under the System/Bin folder like many of the
walk through videos and Threads mention, it is instead in the root of the phone.
-Secondly, When using Root Explorer to mount the root folder as R/W, I was able
to replace the "Recovery" file with the modified variation. However, whenever I
restart the phone, go into recovery via the 3 button hold, It still gives me the
unsigned error. I exit the Recovery and let it boot up normally, only to find that
the "Recovery" file has been replaced with the original.
-I figured maybe there was a backup on the phone that is auto-subbed in for the
modified file. I do a search for "recovery" via root explorer and find a few more
"Recovery" files. No matter which one I replace, upon reboot, they have been
swapped out for the original "recovery".
I am at a loss... Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have tried the Odin Methods to a T as well as the Heimdall method for recovery.
Thanks in Advance!
Corey Krattli
P.s. I know Im not the only one with this issue, as Ive seen it posted, but never
responded to. I think it may be a new issue with the 2.3.6

**[p999 G2X ONLY) PRE-ALPHA- NO SUPPORT - KNOWN BUGS (NO CALL AUDIO)**
AS ALWAYS 'A BIG THANKS' TO THE CYANOGENMOD TEAM FOR ALL THEY DO. WITHOUT THEM NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE.
There will be no support provided for this release as it is still undergoing development. Do not contact support regarding bugs as we are well aware of the current state of each Service.
This is in Pre-Alpha so expect things to not work. This is a barebones Jelly Bean 4.1 AOSP build. Not everything will be functional to its usual capacity.

~THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS DONATED AND SUPPORTED US~
Several Known Issues / Things Not Working:
Code:
*Audio doesn't work
*Data tends to cut off at times. A "hot-reboot" usually fixes it and this is due to audio not working.
*Phone will not enter 'Sleep Mode', again due to audio malfunctioning.
*Mobile Data Network: Data IS working, but you might need to cause the phone to hot-reboot (...easiest way is by connecting to non-encrypted network, which in turn usually fails.) It's due to a SIM-card thing...
*On cold-boot the SIM card status is not correct.
AGAIN, SOME STUFF NOT WORKING - THIS IS A SNEAK PEEK -> NO COMPLAINTS, or BUGS, or EMAILS OR ANYTHING SIMILAR THAT GIVES US THE FEELING YOU DONT LIKE IT. -

EAGLESBLOOD™ ROM INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
========================================
**IMPORTANT** MUST READ CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW COMPLETELY.
1. Make a full backup of your current ROM. Then copy it over to PC if you wish.
2. Reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM). *Note* You should always flash CWM using a USB Cable and NVflash; do not 'flash CWM from the ROM Manager app'.
3. To begin start by clicking "Wipe User Data/Factory Reset", this will wipe all data off of the phone's memory (not SD card though).
4. Now click "Wipe cache partition".
5. Then go down to "Advanced > Wipe Dalvik cache".
6. Choose Install zip from "External SD Card". Wait for that to complete and confirm you see an "Installation Complete" message.
7. Now, you must flash the correct Google Apps - GAPPS JB (gapps-2012xxxx.zip) ...link below.
Once the gapps are installed you can now click "Reboot System". Failing to complete all of these instructions precisely can potentially leave you stuck in CWM Recovery until you manage to build your way back out. This is not fun, trust us.
9. Done. Enjoy your new ROM!

Hey a quick question... Does that mean that when we will have official ICS or drivers we might get a fully functional Jelly bean?

But I think Nexus got the official update from Samsung.
In our case however, we can hardly expect ICS from LG let alone JB.
So I do hope once we have ICS (fingers crossed) the devs here would be able to make a fully functional JB out of it.
The reason I am asking it because the recently we saw the Google now app ported to ICS but they couldn't get the talk back to work, as I read somewhere it was JB kernel specific.
Possible audio fix

Should be able to use Twrp
Kineto.apk not a priority at this point
Camera doesn't work cause of the SD card
There's 2 music apk cause 1 gets flashed with gapps
Google now/voice search audio related
We might consider removing aroma in the feature.

I was getting scared about 4.1 Jelly Bean! With no word from Ricardo but ah you're doing well it looks great!
Do the camera's work? No mention of camera's and the HAL has had alot of work since 4.0.x just interested be good to know, since I'm not flashing until the other major bugs are gone.
Also I don't see why Wi-Fi calling isn't an extra flashable zip I always have to uninstall it as its no use to me.
BTW when you get to your releases that are for me at least very heavily skinned will there be a way to de-skin it cause that's what puts me off about eagles blood and Hellfire roms .....
Finally will I be able to use my internal storage as an SD card at some point since my SD card reader is physically broken so otherwise my phones crippled without that ability
Cheers sorry for the moaning just questions
Thank you EB. No camera no WiFi no audio no Google search and no SD card detection. Lightning fast

Awesome work guys, I claimed an article on this thread, let's see if I can finally get you guys on the portal. Everyone else, it's been pretty clean and refreshing around here and lot of the trouble makers have died, or moved on. We don't need or want any replacement smart asses. Also, I talked to Ricardo earlier at length and he now says lg is having problems with Nvidia, what I mean by this is that lg is experiencing the same thing we are. They are ready and wanting to release ics and drivers, but Nvidia is being Nvidia. We might not get drivers after all. Thanks for the thread space guys, back on topic, I noticed reboots when trying to connect wifi.

*If you find this Help Thread helpful, feel free to hit the "thanks" button below!
So again, this has been done before in other threads, but I feel compelled to include it in our Atrix 2 forum. Granted, we now have a "Q&A" (Questions & Answers) sub-forum, there still seems to be an upsurge of questions being asked and new threads being posted that have already been addressed, discussed, and posted. To avoid the flaming and trolling of New Members here, I'm opening up a thread for questions that New Members may be too hesitant to ask in sub-forums, or ones that are "dev-related" whereas you may not have hit your '10 post' mark yet in order to post in development sub-forums, or any other questions you feel need answers, to avoid cluttering up the rest of the forum sections. Trust me, you will get a much more acceptable reception from posting your 'dumb' or "noobish" questions here, sparing yourself from flaming or otherwise from creating a new thread with a question or concern that has already been dealt with.
So for the sake of everyone's time here, I have to assume that you (yeah, you!) have already registered and read the forum rules, as well as watched that lovely "You're A n00b On XDA" video, so I don't feel compelled to do the entire rundown of the full length version of rules. Please keep these in mind when within the forum, and exercise your own abilities before enlisting the help of others here. Granted, we are here to help you, but if it is apparent that you have not helped yourself, we will let you know in a way that *hopefully would eliminate the need to call you out on your lack of reading, searching, reading, and searching some more. Now that we have that out of the way, let's begin:
***Rules To Abide By:***
When visiting this thread to help the less fortunate, or rather, less knowledgeable, please observe The Rules Of XDA, so that we all (Seniors, Members, Developers, etc.) can provide the most helpful insight, guidance, and direction to those new to xda, as the are "New Members", rather than "NØØBS". I will outline several other threads that can be found throughout xda later, but for now, we'll focus on some basics.
No calling anyone a "n00b".
No making fun of someone's genuine question.
No swearing -even using *'s or other symbols is still swearing, so don't do it!
No posting useless comments/off topic comments.
No posts saying "Thanks" (It makes others feel as though their "help" is valued by clicking the 'button', rather than a 'typed' "thank you")
I will do my best to address your concerns, questions, or otherwise. Same goes for the other members here you frequently help me to help you. If I cannot seem to find an answer, I will try and point you in the right direction. Please, be patient for a reply, and courteous to those who attempt to bring resolve to your issues. We're all doing this in our free time, and as a service to you. Remember to thank those who do, in fact, help you by clicking their "thanks" button, not just a 'typed' reply saying thanks.

You only need to separate the webtop files if you don't want to flash the webtop, otherwise run the .bat file while you are in AP Fastboot. Make sure you have the Motorola drivers installed on your computer. You should be fine after that...

I'd recommend you root while on 2.3.6 and flash the custom recovery (CWM) Clockworkmod Recovery, so as to familiarize yourself with things. CWM has the option in its menu to 'backup' and it's a good tool for that purpose. Backing up does not wipe or delete any data, only "backs up", hence the name. Wiping user data/factory reset will wipe all of your data: contacts, apps, pictures and other media, etc. I do NOT recommend using Titanium Backup for anything -it seems to cause way more problems for our phone than it does good.

Can you uninstall it via: settings>manage apps>superuser>uninstall? You should just be able to re-root without any problems. The superuser app is just the application that allows permissions granted/denied for apps which require root privileges...

The one nice thing I have found about using a backup application (ie, TB) is that it also backs up your user data as well. So home screen settings, texts, basic settings, EVERYTHING. You can literally install a fresh ROM and be back EXACTLY where you were before.
Word of caution though, obviously if you have data backed up for a GB ROM, do not restore data on an ICS ROM. Mixing that type of thing is bad news.

Hey guys, I'm new to the Boot Menu Manager, how do I use scv7 leak 2 as my second system?
I've searched how to use the second system, but with all the posts, I couldnt find an exact answer.
I know it has to be extracted in the clockworkmod/backup folder of the sd card, but will that interfere with the backup of my first system? (which is ICS Leak #1)
Again I've never tried this, so I apologize for this, but hey better safe than sorry right? If anyone would be willing to pm me with help that'd be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

If i'm reading the thread right, it looks as though you can only flash a nandroid backup to the second system. And since scv7 is a zip install, this is not possible with bootmenu. Since it's a zip, think of it as a HUGE patch for your current stock rom. Nandroid backups are completely different.
So you're pretty much outta luck on what you want to do bud.
Why not just flash scv7 and run it as your normal ROM?
Well, I am downgrading to 4.0.4 but I got a couple of questions...
[Q #1] Should I do factory reset before or after downgrading?
[Q #2] Which method is more convenient?
[Q #3] Is it safe to downgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.0.4?
[Q #4] I am rooted. Will it make a conflict after the downgrade? Should I uninstall it?
Thank you for your help. I know I am still a noob but lately I am not comfortable with the OS 4.1.2 and want to have the old version back...

e. 1ST PIC: Now press and release the volume "up" key, you should now be at the Download Mode screen w/odin recognizing your phone.
2ND PIC: this is also download/odin mode - the screen will display this when odin or kies has failed/not completed a previous flash, flash the firmware again w/odin and/or read "section #3 troubleshooting odin" below

Come on mates! Don't be jerks with him! He is a noob, of course. And your job here is not only develop ROMs and stuff. As part of this great community, you must explain <<Doesn't matter the times you've explained it.>> the newest people how to solve even the most simple problems. You can't expect to teach people with a lot of guides and stuff... They will obviously get confused! It's a simple requirement and doesn't harm anyone! Now, my noob mate, make sure to clean all Data and both Cache and Dalvik (that's the name I think.) before downgrading. I am quite sure that's the problem.

This is the problem with XDA these days. XDA is not intended to be a site for people that aren't able to/don't want to teach themselves. This site was founded on the notion that people can and should teach themselves the skills to extricate themselves from the stranglehold of the manufacturers and OS providers. This is a development community full of self-taught gurus who are kind enough to share their work and knowledge with everyone else, with the hope that they carry on the learning tradition. People can't expect to have their hands held when there are perfectly acceptable guides and tutorials for practically every scenario. And note that it is no one's JOB to develop ROMs or offer troubleshooting-people are here because they love the community and development.

Well... Then why noobs join? I mean if it's intended for people with knowledge and skills why would noobs join if they wouldn't understand it?
This mate here is asking for something basic for you... But for him, it's kinda complicated. He's trying to learn from you guys... Te best when it's about this S II... Don't give him the link. With a simple "yes" and "no" will be ok. And then you can add the link.

I'm not a developer mate. Not a Custom ROM and Android Development Fan. I'm just interested in making my phone better. I didn't read it or learned it. I had the same problems so when I first looked here I saw a comment yours saying "Factory Restore and clean Cache and Dalvik b4 u start" so I tried and it worked.

great that u got odin to work.
ive used odin too many times to count and im telling you that nothing in the recovery or android operating system will prevent you from getting into dl mode other than driver issues, user error, bad flash(bricking) or hw failure.
why u succeeded now after wiping.......well it reminds me of daft punk's get lucky song
