Hey everyone quick question

Ok so I just came from the bible and couldn't find what I needed I hope someone can help and not beat me down for not finding it on my own.so I am currently running fusion 1.2 with the core kernel and would like to try out team whiskeys new 2.2 rom what would I need to do I'n order to flash the 2.2 rom do I have to down grade or flash a diff kernel first if someone could give me a quick overview that would be great thanks.

Have been wondering the same question also can you use stock kernal and can you do a straight up grade from bionix final
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I think all of team whiskeys roms wipe your data, and the 2.2 rom flashes the new kernel, so you don't need to flash back to stock. But as always, disable any lag fix first. Hope that answers your question

T-Mobile wifi calling app

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows how I could get this on my phone. I have a vibrant and my cousin has a captivate and we are both on T-Mobile but I want something like a apk or a flashable cwm zip that would be compatible on both the captivate and the vibrant. Please someone help me, thanks in advance

Some roms come with wifi calling. Just gotta look in the listed features in the op... froyo ones are more likely to be better and less half-assed. Idk anything about captivate... tell him to get a vibrant

Ya but isn't there a way to just download an apk or flash a zip file to make it work but I want it to work on any phone.

Not at my pc, but you can do this. Install Bloater (made by a dev here on xda) and use that to install wiring calling. Neat and overall useful app. Here is the link: http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?t=591&

Actually, head to the Dev section and look for EDT Project V ROM thread. In the OP there is the wifi calling .zip file attached which you can flash through recovery. Just did it myself and worked like a charm.

Does the zip file work on the captivate too?

Absolutely no clue. Ask around on their forums.

It should work just fine. Check out the 1.3.1 thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925548
He has it listed under "Addons" which you flash yourself, so I think that tells you it works/is compatible w/ his rom. If you want to stick w/ their stuff, head here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bionix-v/files/
Download the samsung-apps.zip, open it, drill into system -> app, and extract the wifi-calling .apk file and install like any other app.
I flashed the wifi calling zip from the project v rom thread and the wifi calling doesn't seem to work. All it says is that it is enabling but it never does. I am on simply galaxy v2.7.2 rom

Do you think it has something to do with the model number being it says GT-I9000. When I really have a vibrant

did you try the .apk route?
I downloaded bloater and there doesn't seem to be any wifi calling app in there
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
i dont think it would work for the captivate since t-mobile is stingy about this stuff
here are two apk's you can try. i dont know if either will work on the captivate.
both from same xda thread. one is on page 1 and the other is on page 12
Page 1
Page 12 <<<the one on page 12 is the one i used on my vibrant and it works just fine
(its in post #118)
Both of them did not work on my vibrant, all it does is say that it is enabling but it never really enables it. Do you think it is the model number.

Ask in the thread that pertains to your rom, the dev may know. At this point I think we've helped as much as we can in this thread.

Alright thank you for all your help. Hopefully i get it to work, i moved on to gingerbread lol its much better

Download biffmod and then the update file from clockwork recovery. Do the three button trick to get into recovery mode and hit reinstall packages. From there you can flash the rom.

Your better off going back to 2.1 and gain root access that way. But that's just me

Anyone know how to transform a ROM?

Hey people if this question has been asked I apologize.
Can someone explain to me or direct me to the information on how to get a ROM that works on the new Baseband and get it to work on the old Baseband?
If your asking me why don't I switch to the new one it's because when I did I couldn't get My data working so I switched back.

Search for baseband fix, remember, it may not work on every rom!

Yeah I know but I actually want to know how to fix it myself.

there is only one rom that is mik_os which will work on new baseband after applying a old baseband patch
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
No I have used three other roms including lupo's IcS ROM that worked with a Baseband fix. I want to learn how to make those fixes
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I think there are 2 or 3 files associated with the extraction of the baseband fix...I read on some thread in our forums that these files have a .so file extension...just take a look at it and ask aspee. I believe he is the one responsible for the fix
