Hi
I am trying to using Clockwork to backup my ROM but it says that the Galaxy 5 is unsupported, has anyone got this working or used a different software?
Thanks
On SGP you can't use RomManager...
Just flash Entropy512 or rj's kernel with CWM then do a backup manually.
Thanks, I downloaded Entropy's one the other day, i notice it was for a US device and mine is an international one, i'm guessing this makes a difference?

I installed the kernel with CWM and i did not find it anywhere. So i got ROM Manager and installed the original CWM and that doesnt work too well. I don't get why Samsung makes this so confusing? What do i do? I tried the link below.

THIS IS NOT NOOB FRIENDLY
IF YOU HAVE TO ASK, YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS.
MAKE A BACKUP THROUGH CWM
Download the ODIN files from the linked thread
Copy Google Apps and Face Unlock zips to SD Card
Reboot into Download mode
Flash the ODIN files (warning::: this flashes a ICS bootloader) -- Edit, try without flashing bootloader first. It's safer.
Reboot into Recovery
Flash Gapps and Face Unlock zips
Do a factory reset (yes, AFTER installing everything)
Reboot
Set up your phone
Reboot again
PLAY AROUND FOR A WHILE
Restore backup to go back to whatever you were using before
If something confuses you, this probably isn't for you and you should wait for a i777 version of the ROM to be availible (it won't take long, please wait and save all of us from DIS ROM BRICK MAH FONE threads).
Things that don't work:
Everything listed on the CM9 Alpha page +
Home Button = Back Button & Back+Search buttons do not work
Phone does not work (and flashing the RIL in the CM9 thread will not fix this == it's a kernel problem)
This isn't my work, I'm linking and providing instructions on how to flash an ALPHA ROM. The phone DOES NOT work!
I'm not affiliated in anyway with Team Hacksung or Cyanogen.
You don't have to flash the ODIN files, just use the CWM zip he provided.

Those don't flash the ICS Bootloader. It will not work.
Worked for me. No need for the ics bootloader.

You must have already had an i9100 bootloader.. the install script he provides with his cwm release specifically looks for the model number.. flashing i777 roms don't so you may not have noticed up until mnow.
Just remove the first two lines in the script and it won't check.
edit: I've always been very careful and have never flashed any bootloaders on this phone. Just to clarify I didn't have to edit the script on this one though, but i have on others in the past.

I errored out with getprop("ro.product.device ...GT 9100. To try your solution I'd edit build.prop? And I can just remove the lines, not change to i777?

Maybe it's worth waiting until a version specifically for our phones comes out.

In scripting line doesn't always mean one actual line of text it's one line of code, you need to remove everything up to the first ";"

Sorry should have explained better, i was running an i9100 port at the time. That's why i didn't need to edit the build.prop. And to answer your question just remove the first two lines, you'll see once you get it up in notepad.
Pretty cool, seems to be running on my phone, cetainly just something to play with, not really too functional overall as far as any kind of Daily. Thanks for the link.

There were changes to the bootloader from froyo to gingerbread on the i9000 that the rom depends on, so one can assume there to be similar bootloader changes. It's probably best to wait for Atin to give us some proper information and/or a build for the i777 after the holidays.

I just flashed using the latest CWM package and it worked happily for me no problems at all. It is kind of interesting. I like ICS and can't wait until they get all the bugs sorted out when some new leaks happen.

What do you mean by everything worked happily for you? What didn't work for you? What version did you flash? Anything else you want to share about your success?

the version airbus is working on seems to run a tad better than this cm9 one.
Hello everyone.
I searched but couldn't find the stock Rogers ICS release. My phone is rooted and running on GB with all the bloatware removed using TB. I downloaded the software update like before but the phone rebooted after and instead of being on ICS, simply stated that the update had failed and to try another method. I'm thinking it might be because of CWM since when it rebooted, the phone went into CWM and not straight into the OS.
Does anyone have the software update as a download so that I can push it to my phone? I don't want to deal with any custom roms since none of them have worked 100% for me and especially due to tethering workaround, which I found troublesome as I tether a lot.
Thank you.

Yeah. Actually, you don't need to flash the whole ROM, only the file that you modified (of course, if you don't have the file, or your device isn't rooted, you need to flash the whole rom anyway).

Try another firmware, seems like you have not used the correct one (as far I know, the US version doesn't have a physical home button, so you have the international version).
Interesting

I don't think so, the worst that can happen is a buggy device (as it right now xD). You will mess up your device if flash a rom for a completely different device.
Try any international rom from the same thread where you taked the US version (the ROM will have various languages anyway).
Which rom?

As far as I know, the GE doesn't currently support IR. That's only what I've read though. Haven't flashed and tested yet, just made a nand and backed up my apn's through tibu to try to get data working.
So I flashed this and I got a error the I had unauthorized software on my phone and I had to take it to the nearest Verizon store

Sounds like you didn't flash a Loki'd kernel, as advised earlier. Time to Odin, and start over.

As Mikey advised, see if you can get into recovery, first, and see if you can flash a kernel, if not, then Odin is always an option.

You are either joking and that is very funny, or you are never permitted to flash anything ever again.
One or the other.
Might want to change the kernel link in the OP to the Verizon version. Flashing the tmo version on our phones doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
