Hello , Xda Community.
I currently have a T-mobile Samsung SGH- T959.
I rooted it using Superoneclick. I Had odin back to stock , then upgraded to 2.2 then rooted.
Now my issue with Clockwork is that I CANT get into the recovery and I keep getting a "privledge error" Its been two days of troubleshooting now im asking for help. Even when I try to fix permissions. I really want to load some Roms , I really miss my Voodoo Sounds. Sounded great coming through my Dr.Dre beats.
Currently:
Firmware : 2.2
Baseband : KB5
Kernel : 2.6.32.9
Build: Froyo.
Another Question , Is it posibble for me to gave 2.3 ? I would really aprreciate the communities help on this.
Sincerely , Ethan.

Just download the app "one click lag fix" from the market, then click in unroot this device. There's other methods out there too but this is the easiest and safest way to do it.

[Q] Rooted Samsung Prevail Rom

**First off let me apologize if this a double post, or if im posting in the wrong area, I tried looking around and xda does not have the "Samsung Prevail" in the listed devices for forum support. If there is an appropiate place for this post please move it there, thanks and sorry for the inconvience mods/admins.**
I'm hoping maybe someone can help me. I recently rooted my prevail and now looking to flash custom rom. I have rom manager all set up, got a custom boot ready, and backed up system to SD only problem is i dont know what custom rom will work with the prevail. I'm hoping there some way shape or form I can get cm7 running though since the prevail is still new it has not gotten offical cyanogen support. My prevail is running a froyo build so I was thinking maybe I can get a stable cm7 froyo build on here with the custom boot going. If I can't get cm7 I'll be happy with shabbymod on it. Any thoughts? Comments? Suggestions? or links will be greatly apprecaited. thanks. heres my phone specs if they will help:
Model Number: SPH-M820-BST
Android Ver. 2.2.2
Baseband Ver. S:M820.07 x.EE14
Kernel Ver. 2.6.32.9
Build Number: FROYO.EE14
Hardware Ver. M820.07
No answer for this yet? And why doesn't the forums have a section for this phone?

[Q] Quick question with flashing ROMs

So last night I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 and I’ve got a few questions regarding various things that I havn’t been able to find through searching around on the forums. If the answers are around the forums and I have missed them I apologize and hopefully you can direct me there.
1. Since I used chainfires rooting method. I’ve used Nitrality’s app to ‘backup’ my /efs and something else it backup up. Here I’m wondering if I use a custom rom such as “Lite'ning Rom v6.1 XXKH3” will the things I backed up with Nitrality app restore my original ROM and Kernel incase something hardware wise fails and I need to send it back in to claim on my warranty.
2. The second question im asking is regarding various Custom roms, if I choose to flash ;Lite’ning rom, will I be able to since it states it’s;
based on I9100XXKH3 firmware
baseband I9100XXKH3
The baseband I’m using is XWKE7, will I be able to use this rom?
3. since the version of android I have is 2.3.3 and majority of the Roms need 2.3.4 will it work correctly? If not and I have to legitly update to 2.3.4 will it successfully update since i've rooted my phone?
Hopefully you guys can help answer my questions. Thanks.
bump because I really need help :[
- Litening ROM is based on KH3 ROM, that doesn't mean you need to have a Stock KH3 ROM. So yes, you can install it.
- As I said it doesn't matter what ROM you currently have to flash a 2.3.4 ROM.
- Don't know about the Back up issue, sorry.

few questions and which good rom to choose

Hi all,
it can be a very N00B question but this thread is a mess and I can not find things I really need.
I succesfully rooted and completely modified both HTC G1 and the new Galaxy Nexus, but now, a friend of mine has this LG P500 and im looking around trying to find all the necessary to root - recovery etc ..
now..
I will use SuperOneClick because it is a 2.3.3 Android FW.
I will Flash AmonRa recovery 3.06 found in a P500 Android development Thread, as flashable zip.
Im gonna use .35 kernel from Franco, 'cos Im using it on my GN and it works like a charm.
But, I cannot find a good rom!! is there anybody who can help me?
This phone now is:
kernel 2.6.35.10
android version 2.3.3
the only things I know
Thank u all!
you can use the kang version by adam. It is CyanogenMod 7.2.

For the recovery, i will suggest you use ClockWorkMod. Download it from the market. The latest version is 5.0.0.6 and please be ensured to flash the 5.0.2.0 recovery version as the latest version is buggy.
I'm downloading it!! thank you

If you before had stock gingerbread then you had the new baseband version. If not, you need to flash the new baseband as all new roms are now based on new baseband.
Follow this link for flashing new radio.
