Thanks for helping us out
Waiting for Optimized ROMS. Yes I agree the phone has a lot of capability!
should I really make it?
cause I found one rom while searching one net
yodeput created a custom ROM based on the S5360XXKI6 stock ROM that has the following changes / features:
Modifications:
DT Apps2SD pre-installed.
Rooted
init.d subsystem.
Re-odexed (optional) and zipaligned for speed and save space in /data.
Added busybox and sqlite3.
Updated/added AdwEx, Quickboot, Root Explorer, Titanium, Spareparts
Removed unwanted apps (Swype,....)
Notes:
Before flash this ROM, your sdcard must be partitioned (FAT & ext2)
Flash with ODIN
don't forget HardReset after that
http://www.multiupload.com/ORRDRJDTRR
Sure man you should make it...
Does CWM for Galaxy Y out yet ?
i dont think its out yet...
pls make a very nice rom for this phone.
i hope and i think some people whit me that you make a nice rom
we would love a nice costum rom for this phone!!
mine is already rooted and all it needs is a costum rom and maybe a costum kernel
can't wait for a dev to come up with something!
If everyone wants a ROM, VOTE!!

this thread is open to help newbies to install the 2.1 custom rom with the simples way..
you also can discuss any problem here..
dont mess the dev thread with a dumb question...
thanks to "Perceval from Hyrule" for the original tutorial..
this is revise version for 2.1
INSTALLATION FOR 2.1 AOSP
Before attempting anything, make sure you have AT LEAST 50% of battery charge. Don't try anything with low battery, you can abort the flashing and brick your device !!!
Please make sure you're also running a 2.1 rom (Generic, nordic, official, custom...)
1st step:
make sure your computer is adb debugging ready..
in case in need for command execution..
- Download Android SDK
You don't need to save the entire archive (but you can), you just need the Tools folder (because it contains ADB, the Android Debug Bridge we need to install files).
2nd step:
- On x10 :
Enable USB debugging (Setting > Applications > Development).
Root your device. easiest way by using z4root.
Download and install Busybox (from Market), make sure it says "Done!".
3rd step:
install xrecovery for recovery menu.
xrecovery a.k.a recovery menu
4th step:
option 1:
Download rom.
2.1 AOSP ROM (make sure 2.1 since this tutorial is for 2.1)
extract the rom (u will get 2 folder + 1 files)
upload the file into your sd card root(sdcard/*.zip)
rename the *.ZIP to Update.ZIP
*the 2 folder contain application which u can install if u like
option 2:
Download rom.
2.1 AOSP ROM (make sure 2.1 since this tutorial is for 2.1)
extract the rom (u will get 2 folder + 1 files)
upload the file into your sd card root(sdcard/*.zip) or in any folder u like
*the 2 folder contain application which u can install if u like
5th step:
boot into recovery menu (by restart and hit few times back button when "SONY ERICSSON" word appear)
backup your original rom(in case u want to restore next time)
hit full wipe
option 1:
hit install update.zip from SD card
option 2:
hit install custom zip
search for the custom zip in folder where u save it
hit the zip file
after reboot, u will get custom rom installed in your X10
good luck ;-)
TIPS
1-u can do like rendeiro2005 said by creating rom folder and put the rom collection in it..
so if u want to change or try other rom just choose zip file from the particular folder...
this require using step from option 2
2-another one, by creating folder which contain backup image..
u can collect your friends backup image and put in one folder..
if u want to try, just restore the particular image file using backup/restore option in recovery menu and choose the backup image file..
collection of custom rom backup file for recovery menu:

p/s: anyone who want to contribute their customize custom rom using backup image and list here can either pm me or response in this thread..
for use with recovery menu only..
Hi bro,
Only two calls on your excellent tutorial:
1. No need to put the rom in the root of the sdcard. I, for example, to distinguish the roms, I`ve created a folder "Rom" in the root and put the roms in there.
2. It is not necessary to rename the *. zip file.
When we entered the xRecovery, you can go to "install Custom Zip> zip Choose Custom from sdcard>" Now in my case I a. .. "Roms >........" and I intend to choose

it`s not a different way.
i think that way would be more simple (for me at least) `couse you can have different roms puted on the same directory without, everytime that you want to install one change his name to default.zip
but...great TUT (clap your hands floks)
Since i haved installed the 2.1 AOSP, my recovery were deleted !
So i install the xrecovery.apk but it doesnt work (don't fin the SD Card), so i paste the 3 files with root explorer but nothing to do... the recovery doesn't work at all =(

It says make sure you are 2.1 but I'm not im 1.5...... basically I'm stock X10..... and i want to flash so does it matter if I'm 2.1 or not. Because it doesn't make since that you say make sure your 2.1 but I'm flashing to get 2.1

Install all 3?! Yes you can...if you want you can install WM and iOS
Now mre seriously.
If you want to install 2.1 you have to format sdcard to one partition only. 2.1 doesn't work with more than 1.
Then you can flash...follow this guide to do so

hi im new to android phones
last week i got galaxy s2
now i found some great apps byt when i downloaded them i didnt found .apk app
instead i found few folders and files and i dont know how to instal them
should i root my galaxy?
Form where did you download them.. try using market app or download from apktop.com or android-market.co .. Also do you have System/app/ and META-INF folders in a zip file. If so you will have to install it in recovery by using install zip from sdcard option..

thank you
yes thats what im talking about (a zip file)
but i dont have such option (install zip from sdcard) in the recovery mod
should i root my galaxy to install such app?

what app are you referring to?
if its a flash zip you need a custom recovery such as CWM or Amon Ra
there is no specific app ( i downloaded many app that was non an .apk)
yes its a flash zip
cmw comes after rooting?
thanks for your patience but im new to the world of android
So, flash cwm recovery and try to install from there.. if you flash cwm recovery you can even backup and restore your rom...
you need to root first before you can install a custom recovery.
usually system apps get install via flash zip. you sure the apk is not zipped up? sometimes you need to in zip to get the apk.
thank you all for your replies
the apps im talking about like app monster or other app that need a root
is there a safe way to root the galaxy s2 without changing the rom or the kernel
ie. i just want to be able to flash zip files ( cracked app)
and stay on my rom and kernel
and will i be able to receive apdates for the kies???
TO root s2 please visit this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125414
Sometime there will be .apk file directly inside zip file (this is done to reduce size of app) you should not try to install them from recovery only install zip file from recovery having sytem and Meta-inf folder inside the zip file.
Yes you will be able to receive updates via kies unless you don't flash a custom kernel...
thank you all
Hi! I just got my first Android Phone.
The HTC Inspire.
I've been told I could speed up this phone but I'm also curious to know what else I could do with it?
I used to have an iPhone and I would just change the theme and stuff...
So, I suppose my question(s) is/are;
1. How can I speed up my phone?
2. What can I do with my phone?
3. Is there a site where I can browse custom themes for my phone?
4. how do I add custom ringtones/ringback
thanks for taking the time for reading this.

To speed up your phone try v6 supercharger. Search xda forum and you will get there ..
You can do a lot of things with your phone like rooting it to make changes to system as well a ls access hidden system files and also to install app like app monster, titanium backup that are very handy ..
Not only this you can even flash/install custom Rom/kernel that are much better and optimized than stock one provided by HTC..
For more details Google root your phone model and custom kernels for your phone model ..
To get themes and more info foe your phone try to find your phone sub forum in xda forum or just Google .. to set custom ringtones you can select set as ringtone on your music player it copy ogg file to /system/media/audio (for which you need to root and use root explorer or similar app) and then go to settings.and choose your copies file..

What is App Monster? "flash/install custom Rom/kernel" ??
I'll try and find my phone in the sub-fourms
App Monster is an application that lets you manage your installed applications. For example you can backup apps and batch restore them.
Dear friends !!!
I have a
Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100G
Baseband version: I9100GXXKL4
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7
[email protected] #2
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XXLB1
so I created a folder on /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
Then pasted SuperROM_v3.0 folder into backup, so far so good.....
Now CWM factory reset, wipe cache, all good till now.
Now when I want to select the clockworckmod folder, It kinda flashes up but it want go inside, at the butom it says No files found
So I thought ok Lets try SuperROM v 1.0 first, but by downloading its 2 parts (001 and 002) and the zip file lokks kinda broken, can see the files but not able to extract the from the rar (zip)
As last night I updated my girlfriends to the android 4.0.3 on her I9100, I love to get the look of it with the superRom V3.1 hopefully.....
So to all you I9100G MASTERS please help !!!!!
hey DonSkazi
did you copy superom 3.0 in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/ from cwm directly because it wont detect unless you reboot the recovery or did you make a folder sdcard then in it clockworkmod then backup and then you copied the superrom v3.0.
Hey darkshadow1997 !!!!
Thank for your fast reply !!!! Yeaaaah what I did was actualy unzipt it on to my desktop, then moved it via USB Cable to download, and then with Root Manager I moved it over to the string: /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup (clockworkmod and bakup i had to creat by myself.
Could you please write me down the exact steps. so I can give it a try....
Hope we can get it 2 work !!!!!
Talk 2 U later!!!
Thanks so far!!!
sorry for a late replay but you dont need root manager for this. All you have to do is make a folder clockworkmod in your internal sd then in it backup then you copy superrom v3.see attachment on how it should look like. last thing you just need your computer no android app for this and the clockworkmod should be copied to internal sd not external sd(micro sd). not sure if it the same in all i9100g phones but the internal sd should be 11gb or 10.9gb.Good luck. And if you need help in porting themes then send me a message i can help you out.and if you did not understand anything tell me on which part then i will try and explain once i get back from school today but right now i need some sleep for school.

Hey my friends !!!!
Happy Face Modus on........xxxxxxxxxxxD
Finaly I got the SuperROM v3.0 and the v.3.1 on my I9100G
The I found a ICE THeme in blue on
But after Updating it my 14 toggle mod was gone away Is there a way to use that ICE theme withe the SuperROM v3.1 ?!
As well at start up I have the Samsung Galaxy S 2 GT-I9100G screen + the yellow triangle, I would love to get rid of both, so how can I put a custom one at start up??!!
Plus, I put a bootanimation.zip (containing part0, part1 and desc.txt) in Superatmos, but still by rebooting device the samsung bootanimation is showing up.....very SAD !!!!
I know that there is a file in system/media that is in charge of the samsung boot animation........
I am sorry, its many questions, but I realy would like my I9100G be pimped as hell.......lol.....xxxxxxxxxxxxxxD
hey DonSkazi
you have very easy problems to fix
Yellow Triangle:heres a short way to remove it
1.get ktool from google play (its free)
2.get any stock kernel,here is one of kl3 link:http://www.mediafire.com/?ss1n1u1zzdlht5c
3.open ktool and select dump current kernel then select reboot to download mode
4.with odin select the stock kernel and flash
5.the yellow triangle is gone so is cwm
6.to get cwm back, open ktool and select flash kernel from /sdcard/zImage and reboot
7.And you are done with no more yellow triangle and will have cwm back.
Bootanimation:if the copy bootanimation to superatmos folder didnt work it could be kernel issue since superrom 3.0 have its own built in kernel so just copy bootanimation.zip in system/media and reboot.
ICS Theme:well as for this one i am not sure if my answer will be correct since i am using my own ported theme but what version did you download was 3.0 or 3.1
because if you flashed ics theme 3.0 on superom 3.1 then you will lose 14 toggle. if you did a backup in cwm then you can restore the backup and flash the correct theme.but if you did no backup then you have to start from the beginning.there is a reason if you flash a theme upon a theme then there will be some parts left of an old theme.when it says ics theme 3.1 it means the theme is based on superrom 3.1 and will only work for superrom 3.1 so check the version before downloading and flashing.
Hello Hello
Ok i tryed to install the v3.1 again, but that ICS Theme is still on, I did wipe data/factory restet and wipe cach partion, but no way to get the 14 toggle back.... I think I will get CRAZY!!!!!!
hey DonSkazi
sorry for an extremely late replay,i was on diner with my family and friends. when i said to start over i mean flash back to stock.heres what you have to do
1.get any stock rom for i9100g.if you get the wrong firmware you will hardbrick your device.so make sure that its for i9100G
2.now go to cwm then go to mounts and storage now format data,cache and last system.this is to remove traces of custom rom.
3.open odin and select pda then browse for your firmware
4.select start and wait till its done.
you will have a un-rooted stock rom.so just flash a custom kernel you will get the yellow triangle at boot you can remove by following my last post.since you already know how to restore superromv3.0 there's no need to explain that.now remember two
1.if you were to modify the custom rom lets say theme it in this case always make a backup in cause if you mess up
2.you can get any stock rom it wont affect the performance in anyway i was using a old stock firmware when i restored superromv3.0 i was on dzkj2.
It's my first time customizing an android phone after rooting it, and I have to say, there's a lot to learn. Samsung devices are made to read qmg files when it comes to boot animations, but I'm already making my own boot animations, and I have a lot of questions I hope this post isn't that long.
================================
1- after installing CWM can I UNINSTALL it using odin? Or is there any other way to do it without my computer?
================================
2- I know that you can't UNflash files, so when I flash a zip file (specifically bootanimations4U) what files should I back up? I'd rather back up only the files that will be replaced? Or is there an app to back up files from a certain folder and just bring them back if I want to bring back the normal animations?
================================
3- let's say that my device is rooted, it has CWM installed, and also, has the . zip enabler flashed already and in use. I'm planning to FORMAT my phone in a couple of weeks because I want to use it as if it's rooted with the whole storage available (I don't have storage problems I just want to do that) but my question is...
==========
-Q3: if my goal is just to delete my data and apps only, can I just use the factory reset from the settings? Do I need to do anything regarding CWM or the zip file I've flashed? Will CWM be deleted? Will I have to flash that .zip reader enabler (bootanimations 4u) again? What do I need to do if I needed to reset my phone without any problems?
================================
4- is there a file size limit for the bootanimations.zip files on Samsung devices (galaxy s5 android 6.0) and also the audio file size limit?
================================
5- what is the condition in which I have to flash the bootanimation4U.samsungani.zip file and not the other one?

Special thanks to @klemen241 for helping me try out the SM-T280 build
Haven't done extensive testing on Xposed modules, but the pokemon go iv mod/hacked worked and that was good enough for me (Before pokemon Go was patched). If you use this ROM feedback is highly appreciated
NOTES: To be safe, perform a cache wipe using recovery. I didn't need to do this personally but I haven't tested all use cases
NOTES: Since this rom is deodexed, the first boot will take quite a while, so please be patient .
NOTES: if you are coming from V2 and are using the mount_ext4 apps2sd scripts please update it for additional support for the V3 ROM HERE:
https://github.com/jedld/smt285_data_scripts
NOTES: (09/13/2016) Unfortunately, the V3 build fails the Google SafetyNet check, will be a problem if you play Pokemon Go
Other Notes: Removed support for zygote.init scripts in V3 as I am now using the app_process32_xposed binary, will work to get this back soon. I haven't had a need for zygote scripts though. The vold.init scripts shoud still work as before if you are using the apps2sd script
Installation Instructions:
Odin or Heimdall Required. I you are coming from the Stock Rom please wipe/factory reset to be sure. If you are upgrading from V1 or V2 you are not required to wipe unless there are problems. If you are upgrading to V3 cache wipe is recommended using recovery.
--FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK--
1. Make sure to backup of your data and have a copy of your stock Rom in case something goes wrong.
2. Make sure your device is OEM unlocked. (Enable Developer settings and Enable the OEM unlock settings)
3. Extract ZIP file below and flash the tar.md5 file using ODIN, for details on this kindly look for instructions in the xda site.
4. For Heimdall you can use 7zip to extract the system.img from the tar.md5 and just flash the system.img itself.

If you have suggestions, send me a PM.
Other Notes (So people don't have to ask):
* I've tried to run superuser daemonsu, but unfortunately the sepolicy scopes for vold and zygote are too narrow in this device for supersu to use despite being root. In theory a version of daemonsu can be made specifically to run on this device with a somewhat castrated functionality though I don't have access to the source code to figure it out. Navigating the sepolicy landmine is hard.
WIFI ISSUES
=========
There are reports of wifi problems with the latest build due to wrong permissions with dhcp hooks, if so you can do the following (big thanks to @_mone):
Using adb shell:
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount,rw /system
chmod 755 /system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks
mount -o ro,remount,ro /system
/system is readonly by default, which is why you need the remount commands. Reboot your device after just to make sure.
Hi,
The mount_ext4_sdcard.sh script moves all apps to SD card on reboot?
Edit: did not read till the end. System apps are not move.

It won't by default for safety purposes, however you are welcome to edit the script and try to move them all

Thanks for your hard work. It's a pity this device is not as popular as their other models or more people would have already signed the petition.
I regret not doing more research before buying this tablet.
Hello there
At first i want to thank you for your hard work so far
Then i've got a question,
I just built this Tablet (LTE version) in my car. Now i'm on to configure it with Tasker to "act more like a car radio". It was really hard, because of the non rooted device.. But i did it so far
I used a sound mod, called Dolby Atmos (i think it's from lenovo?) on allmost every of my rooted devices to improve its sound.
I'm wondering if it would be possible that you could build in this mod inside a rom for me?
Normally i flash it as a zip file via a custom recovery so it's in the system files. but maybe you could edit it in there before the rom get flashed via odin? I could give you the zip, if u dont find it. It would be really nice!
Greetings from germany

we could try, could you point me to a rom that has the specified libraries for Dolby?
Thank you, for the fast answer!
Here is the flashable zip of the Dolby Atmos, mod i used successfully on my other devices:

Wow thank you! I'll test it right now
Edit:
It works like a charm! You really improved my devie with it!
Hi,
If it's not too troublesome, perhaps the next version can symlink the host file to a r/w folder so that ads can be blocked.
Thanks.

Possible, though the only r/w partition is data and cache, and it may potentially cause problems when you suddenly try to do a wipe. I'm working on deodexing and porting xposed framework for now. Either that if you've got some IP addresses that need to be blocked I can create an edition that has those entries. I'll see what I can do though there might be away to do it without breaking factory reset/wipe cache.

No hurry. I can wait. What you are doing now is more important. :good:

Wish Granted. As a bonus, the latest version of the ROM is now deodexed and Xposed, please refer to the main post for the updates.
Feedback is appreciated.

May need to modify build.prop, you may do this yourself here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/how-to/guide-samsung-galaxy-tab-7-0-sm-t285-t3438296
Also there may be an Xposed framework modules that do that. Not sure though since I'm ok with the stock DPI

Thanks. Will need to find time to re-flash this weekend.
Regarding xposed have you actually tested any other modules that need root?
I already built a rom with xposed but it was all but useless because pretty much all the modules I use need root.
most of those I tried don't need root so far (youtube adaway, pokemon go iv). Haven't tried those that need root but I suppose those wouldn't work.
I use app settings and it works for dpi change, and you are welcome. I am glad to test stuff, its fun haha. If anyone has questions about t280 you can ask me
how can i boost the volume? since its not rooted i cant find the mixer.xml
