yes.......if it bootloops then over stock rom

Flashed over fresh KPE - KPM:
1. can't mount SD card in recovery mode.
2. Same USB access glitch as Skin's root.

what's usb glitch?
could skin's cfroot mount sd crad in recovery mode?

what's usb glitch?

usb glitch is when plugged on PC phone isn't recognized as i9003 but as 2 "removable disks" (1 phone, 1 ext. card). Before that I get vlc player to open and wanting to play some file

is that a USBglitch? i always use that usb mode. "Mass Storage" to be specific. i think you want the "Samsung Kies" mode wherein you will only see 1 removable disk. i dont really think thats a glitch

hm, I've always used Samsung drivers with mass storage (without the Kies stuff) and never had any problems.
It's just annoying when I plug in usb cable and get a bunch of the files on my sd card trying to run on my vlc player with this result before anything else:
edit:
this is sd card error/message returned when wiping data + factory reset. Can't reproduce the other error with no sd card, as I'm back on stock.

updated op with fixed v2.....

May I ask what exactly is fixed now?

so my kernel wasnt responsible?

That's a different issue, sakindia. Don't want to confuse you.
I'm back on kph for the time being.
Just seen you fixed the sd card issue. Good. See what others say.
Edit: Damn it! You're probably right. It's not your kernel.
I completely wiped phone and started from scratch. KPE, KPH, cf-root skin and have problem with vlc player persisting. Trying restore now. Someone is sitting somewhere in the depth of my phone. Get out!
Edit2: Phew! Recovery got me back to normal. SD card detectable again and fully functioning. I'm staying away from KPM tweaks for now.

can we please have this in zip also...m not sure we can flash this in cwm..still...want to try this but away from the pc..thats why zip

please recall the changes u made they're important ... btw if it ends in bootloop can we just flash cf-root by skin n it'll boot fine ?

[RECOVERY][CWM] Completely stock ClockworkMod 5.5.0.4 (7/5/12)

This is a clockworkmod recovery built completely from source. It has the latest cwm updates and the latest ics kernel (eMMC erase bug fixed). This should also have the hanging backup bug fixed. I havent had time to make a billion backups to test this but the few i did without the .hidenandroidprogress file worked like a charm If you do get a hanging backup that is all koush's fault as i just used his latest sync to cwm.
To get adb working on this:
add these lines to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\android_winusb.inf"
-add them in the section that says [Google.NTx86] and the section that says [Google.NTamd64]. just make it look like the ones that are already there but with this code:
Code:
;
; Samsung Skyrocket
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_0231&MI_01
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&MI_01
- then right click "my computer" and go to device manager
- you will see a driver with a yellow exclamation point...right click it and click "update driver software"
- click "browse my computer"....then click "let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
- then click all devices
- click "have disk..."
- go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\android_winusb.inf"
- click to allow installation of driver
- presto

Hi, first of all thanks for the recovery, it has been part of all my development. I might play with this over the weekend. My questions are:
1) Will it restore backups created from older version. I have parked on 5.5.0.4 BL14 (I think)
2) Does this include usb mount external sdcard?
TIA

yes it should restore any backups made with any version of cwm.
this version does mount the external sdcard and not the internal. right now its only one or the other. the stock option is the mount the external. i can make a version that mounts the internal and post that if you would like. but until the commits from twrp get picked over its just one or the other.

hi Guys,
Quick question about my galaxy R
i have a 32 gb card installed in my phone, when i look in storage tab within task manager it says below:
System Storage: 1.97 GB

Can anyone pls tell me how do i moce it to SD Card?

i did extract & select the .tar file (and not apk) within the zip that i downloaded, trust me man i read that guide like 5 times before doing it.
also when it failed for the first time, i re-downloaded the file & retried the whole process but no luck
i had loaded cfw on my psp earlier which worked perfectly but i'm really struggling with this

Please check the file you have donwloaded is not corrupted or broken. If still persisting with the same issue, you can try CWM 5 by Adam77Root.
CWM 5
Procedure is same. But use this CWM tar file in Odin instead of the one you tried earlier.:fingers-crossed:

Try it buddy and after downloading the .tar file, try to open it with winrar, if it says file couldnot b opened or corrupted, then diwnload it again. Sometimes our internet connection stops in between downloading and hence file become corrupted. Try it and its not recovery mode its downloading mode..

Is there any way to fix this bootloop.plz help me out......

i think via adb we can do that. But I dont have that knowledge. Its always better that u should switch to new stable ddlf2 value pack. Ddkp3 is a little bit older rom. Lots of mods are avilable for DDLF2 rom. And from next time always keep a backup in hand using cwm.

Could you tell us the system files and libs you have changed? Fix Permissions (I think??) only fixes APK permissions, since the OP said he also played around with /system/lib, I believe it will take a lot more. I can help you as I know how to use ADB and most of its commands. If you could tell us the files you have changed, I will be able to write a small guide here. All what you need to do is just to Chmod (CHange MODe) and Chown (CHange OWNer) some files (If you have modded any libs, you would also have to adb push). Its pretty simple trust me

i think your motherboard is broken. mine is broken too and my warranty is not valid anymore. hope you can fix yours and mine too

Not to be rude, but believe me, it seems like your dragging.
As most trusted contributors and experienced people here in this community have already told you to reflash. Please try that.
If you're able to charge(the green charging symbol appears), most probably you'd bee able to enter the download mode(vol down + home button + power button combo). You've not reported if you ever tried that.
Goto ddlf2 or xxkpu.
Still if you're not clear, please ask for a detailed guide. Would be happy to help

flash CF ROOT, and then access phone shell via "adb shell" while in recovery mode, then you can fix what you broke. CWM has adb enabled in most cases. If you just want it to boot again, you could simply flash from odin the whole rom, and then update via kies or another .tar rom and it will work normally again.
why dont you have CWM?, are you sure you are root?

Is the lib file by chance, "libtalk_jni.so"? there are two possibilities that occur when you get operation failed. One is that your "/system" directory is full, install a deodex package and you should be good to go, no need for anything else. Problem is, I have never heard of I9003XWKPH update before or if they have a deodex package in our forums. The other, is that you had forgotten to "adb remount", but seeing that you had pushed the app and it had worked, means that it isn't this one. Since you did not push over the lib file, you needn't worry about it. Lib file changes are notorious for causing bootloops on our phone unless we Hexedit them, and even then its not always 100%

I had already replied to this guys pm asking him to flash the latest firmware for his region. But I suppose he is what his name suggests. He is just wasting our time here.

Sorry for the very late reply
its not really the motherboard who has the problem, it is the internal memory. The only thing to fix it is to replace the motherboard. And yes, even your internal mem./motherboard is broken, you can still access the recovery mode, download mode and charge it. To know If your internal mem./motherboard is really broken, go to recovery mode a nd when you get this message:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

then your mem./motherboard is really broken. Good luck!

I was just curious about it so I installed it and have been trying for two hours or so. Not enough time to make conclusions. But I can confirm it is not dangerous (also, if you are on cm, you don't even have to flash from Odin, so you don't touch the radio partition). Picture attached.
Look at the "Versión de banda base" field, which is the baseband. It now says service. Very interesting, thank you!

Do you use a cm build newer than cm 10 alpha 4?
Then just copy the modem.bin inside this .tar to /radio, change owner to radio:radio and permissions to 655 and reboot.
If, just in case, it didn't work, just move your old modem.bin to /radio again.

Then just copy the modem.bin inside this .tar to /radio, change owner to radio:radio and permissions to 655 and reboot.
If, just in case, it didn't work, just move your old modem.bin to /radio again.

Easy, download a file explorer with root permissions, copy your efs backup and paste it over the efs folder in "/" (root folder)
You'll get your IMEI instantly (of course reboot).
If that doesn't work, download a modem.bin that works in your country and do what rodero said

Good to know, I've had some of those mini-heart attacks when my IMEI got erased too, luckily I have a copy of my efs in every disc, every pc and every sd in my house

I ll try to backup my imei using different methods. Hope that will reduce the mini heart attack for me in future

Nope, it is very unlikely that the problem was caused by the modem, its just that, since alpha 4, our device is using an mtd partition layout and Odin uses a bml partition layout, so you probably just screw up your partitions.
