JI5 Was removed because of a lot of issues.. Don't even bother with it

I didn't see a lot of issues with it, just isues with kies? what did I miss?

Nope, Read back.. There were a whole lot of issues
Samsung actually removed it from the update list (I heard they were getting allot of calls about it - Not sure though )
But anyways... Yeah just wait for froyo or try out Bionix

Have j12 now and the gps on it sucks, with some lag issues etc. I was really hoping. If its not fixed by the time the G2 comes out I'm jumping ship to a ship that works and can at least tell me where I am.
I feel that the Galaxy class phone is like the titanic. Doomed from the start!

There is nothing wrong with JI5 - obviously the person running off at the mouth doesn't have it on their device.. there we're some MINOR problems and one of them being Kies not working properly. A whole lot of issues with none to list, super helpful.. not.
Accounts and Sync was also not playing nice with Facebook and Myspace but that's all been fixed up.
Here is the file in a zip that should unzip no problems.

Is that JI5 zip file workable with clockwork, or does it have to flash via Odin? I have a mac so i'm not sure how to make it work.
Thanks

It's for Odin. You'll need to run bootcamp if you want to do this. Parallels won't work.

That's weird. Careful you get the right version of PB00IMG. The one at the top of that thread is leak v1, not leak v3. Anyway, if you're still having trouble un-rooting, you might have to do it the old-fashioned way: un-root to 1.5 following the original "downgrade" instructions, and then upgrade to 2.1 by putting the OTA zip (renamed to update.zip) onto your SD card.
Yeah I may do that. I'm using the "patched version."

That's v1. Don't do that. I can't find v3 here on XDA, so search android forums for it instead. I'm pretty sure it's on the first or second page because there have been recent references to it.

Is there any way to get the Galaxy tab email.apk to work with Bionix? I was able to switch it out with the stock email.apk, but it would forceclose after about 30 seconds every time. I'm not sure how many people have actually seen or used it but it's pretty cool. May be beating a dead horse here I don't know (No offense Eugene).
cleaned cache partiton after switching that out
Thanks Bartek25, I'll give it another shot.

Yes, that was my first attempt. The second time around I used SGS tools. Both worked for a very short period of time before the continual fc's. Thank you though! Hopefully at some point it will work.
have you try fixing permissions in clockwork rec
Hmm that's strange... never had these issues with either version. If you really want it that bad, try starting from scratch. ODIN to stock, flash your rom of choice, then apply your email mod. Hopefully it works out for you, the Tab email app is pretty cool.

Are you using the tab email.apk? If so have you used it with Bionix 1.3.1? If I knew that other users were able to use it with this rom, I probably would Odin back and try it. Just not sure I want to take the time if it's not compatible with this rom, thanks.
Ok Man I Know how to mak it work....
Get SGS Tools
After Installed, open it
hit Upgrade apps
in the list, select Email app from Galaxy tab
chek the box >> i`ve read the above text.. and hit ok...
all set

Thanks, that was my second attempt, but still got the fc's doing it that way. I then went back to SGS tools and tried to revert back to the old email.apk at which point it says it can't revert back. I gave up for now, I had to delete the tab email.apk through Root Explorer and find the old one here on XDA. I read somewhere else that it's not compatible with some roms. As much as I'd like to have it on my phone I'm not sure I'm willing to give up Bionix at this point. I'll probably try again after the next Team Whiskey release, whenever that happens to be.
Zero FC's that way, clear your data, wipe cache, and dalvik cache then try to install it.

[Q] just got a Fascinate and need help

i just bought a Fascinate today that was rooted. it's on 2.2.2, and as far as i can tell there is no custom rom on it. how do i go about unrooting, and if i do, will i be able to root again? i want a completely fresh start since i don't know what this guy has done on the phone.
also, the battery cover is pretty messed up. it still works but it has a lot of scratches. anyone know a good battery cover under $10 including shipping?

question about the battery cover, do i need to buy one specifically made for the Fascinate or can i use ones made for the Vibrant and Galaxy S i9000? i found a stock black one for the Fascinate on Amazon, but it would be cool to get a chrome colored one i saw on ebay.

thanks. for the advice. guess i'll decide on the cover later. by the way, instead of unrooting, would a factory reset via the recovery menu wipe anything that was installed such as voodoo or other .zip packages?

voodoo lagfix converts rfs (Touch Wiz) to ext4 filesystem. Mtd based roms use yaffs filesystem which is superior, so voodoo lagfix is not compatible and would be a downgrade quite frankly.

where can i download those? also can i use something like z4root? i really hate relying on a USB Connection for the Fascinate. i don't know why but it only works once in a while. i was able to odin to gingerbread using your guide last night, but now i can't get the phone to connect no matter what i do. this is the one huge flaw with this phone for me.
EDIT: would it matter if the phone isn't activated? since i have to do the softkey enable trick everytime i turn it on.
You can find them on cayanogen website. search google drivers... I'm not sure if activating the phone makes a difference or not... I wouldn't think so but not certain. also maybe try a different computer...just throwing ideas out there.

well there is a app called mobile odin pro. our device is not supported yet, but if you talk to the dev maybe he(chainfire) will put us next in line. I believe his plans are to make all samsung devices compatible. with this you can odin md5 and .tar files from your device.

[Q] Read until my eyes hurt....I'm sorry i have to ask....

This is my very first smartphone as I have been to poor to get one before now. I have Att SGS2. From what i have read i have made a bad decision when doing the factory upgrade to uckk6.
The thing is I want to root the phone, put on custom mods....but I am having a hard time grasping it. I don't want to mess anything up and I dont want to lose my photos and such that are on the phone.
I dont know where to even start.....backup program? or? what all programs or apps i need?
before I upgraded, i downloaded a super1click program and it said it was rooted...then i tried to use the phone and there was soooo much lag in the response time..... i hit the unroot button and tried to use the phone and same thing...restarted phone and it was fine. While it was rooted tho, the damn superuser part asked for money before i could even do anything, that was second reason for unroot and of course thinking i may mess up my phone.
I have tried asking all my friends and to no avail have succeeded in finding anyone that has rooted a phone and/or flashed custom roms.
Like I said in the title, i have been to many different sites even trying to read up and I would rather be safe than sorry. If someone could plz help me out here I would be very grateful.
I am hoping I don't get spazzed at like i seen in a few other posts of other ppl.
And i have seen where someone sent ppl to:
[Heimdall][Odin][Stock][Root]UCKH7/KK6 Return/Unbrick to Stock (or Root
but that doesnt get my foothold on where to start at.
Please don't write me off as a lost cause because I would like to enjoy the benefits of having a rooted phone and custom roms as the rest of you that are intelligent enough to do so. At one point I'm sure you were where i am. I am very eager to learn and can't wait!
While I was writing this i downloaded the Uckk6_stock_rooted.tar.7z not sure if i need it or what though.
Thanks
Follow this guide TO A TEE, and you shouldn't have any problems. It also won't trigger the flash counter so you can take it back for repairs and Samsung won't know you've done anything to it. Use (2C) Entropy's version using windows to root as the others won't work with the OTA update. If you have a MAC, use 2D. Folow the directions EXACTLY how their written. This will get you rooted. Drop down to 3B and again, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY HOW THEIR WRITTEN. After this is done, you have a Entropy's kernel with CWM. You can then download any COMPATIBLE rom to your internal SD card and flash the rom with CWM.
To save your pics and such, just hook your phone to your puter via the USB cord and copy/paste, or drag and drop to a file on your computer.

I just don't understand why people who can't comprehend the process of rooting or flashing even try. It's not like this phone sucks stock that they just have to mod it to make it workable. None of this is rocket science, but if you don't understand it beforehand then JUST LEAVE YOUR PHONE ALONE! It will be 100 times harder to fix it if you don't know how you messed it up in the first place. It really isn't fair to expect people in here to bail you out when things go wrong because you didn't know what you were doing. The warnings aren't there to keep you from the good stuff. They're there so that you'll think before doing and only do once you understand.

I've read everything in your thread so far and it sounds like everything is fixed. If wifi works and you have root, cwm, and superuser you should be good to go. Go install roms and enjoy. Really doubt your wifi is going anywhere. I'm far from a programmer or anything like that, and from my experience, if you follow the instructions it's hard to **** this phone up beyond repair firmware wise so freaking out is pointless.

[ROM][ODIN][4.4.4] SM-G900P NI3 - Full Restore (Modem/Kernel/Recovery)

First off I would like to please ask everyone to thank the anonymous donor for this file because we wouldn't be seeing it today without them.
For all those that have been waiting, it's not the official release - but it is stable enough for daily driver use.
I haven't had much time to test this but the only issue I had with it was flashing it.
If it gets stuck trying to get to recovery pull the battery and flash again.
I am marking this a full restore because it looks like it wiped data, including pictures. YMMV.
At the moment I'm only putting the original file up.
I'll try to get an Odin one-click and a nodata version up later.
Link to NI3 folder:
http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.p... Galaxy S5 (Sprint) (SM-G900P)/Stock ROMs/NI3
Steps:
1) Download EXE file, double-click to extract.
2) Put the phone in download mode.
If you've never done this before, easiest way is to shut the phone down completely.
Then hold Vol Down + Power until you see a warning screen. Press up to proceed.
3) Open Odin (I used 3.07), place in PDA slot and flash.
4) Profit!
Please feel free to leave feedback on the flash and ROM but please keep in mind I have no special contact to relay that feedback.
Do me a favor please - if you're going to reply don't clutter my thread with spam. Thank you.
Reminds me of that old Monty Python skit. LOL

There is a problem with the screen not turning off when making a call. Other than that it seems smooth so far. Wifi calling is only new feature that i have tested, and it seems to work fine.
You cant root with towelroot you have to use cf-autoroot which trips knox. Since i had tripped it already WTF not. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51421067&postcount=2
Screen shots please?

I have that screen on while on a call problem with my not yet rooted S5 on NE5 from time to time. That one may not be new. I wonder if its possibly a hardware issue?

I would also like to know this, I just downloaded it but dont want to attempt to try it and not have a phone until I can get back to my place later
Finally getting around to deodexing and rooting this build.
Wish me luck.
If anyone has it ready to go and is just going through testing, let me know so I don't spend hours getting it ready.
Has anyone tried to go back to ne5 after update?

I now have a bootable odexed version. I probably wont do deodexed right away, its not worth the extra effort. Going to try getting one done that is rooted with busybox to post later.
Edit: And it seems to be fine with the NE5 modem too so no worries there.
I'm on my way home I may deodex it. Will post back if I do.
Oh great, I was just getting my rom ready to release an update, lol. Thanks for working on this guys.
