Hello my friends... i've a noob question for u...
i've the build "23569"... and relative "MSXIPKernel" folder... but now i need the file "XIP.bin" of this build to cook my new ROM...!
Can i obtain the XIP.bin from the MSXIPFolder? If yes, how to?
Thenx for your help...
PS: I noticed that i haven't the folder called ".ROM" in my build 23569... can i take it form my older build? I've the build 21887 complete!
Sorry for my nooooooooooooooooob thread...
Wow.. this is the WM development and hacking forum of the famous xda-developers?
hummmmmm... compliments!!!
Go friends.. i hope in you!
Damn!!!
77 views and no one can answer at my question?
i'm really deluded.
Hello,
If no one answers it may be that the answer is already on the forum. Do a quick search you will find that there are several dedicated to building on the XIP. Next you use the kitchen building is directly is automated!
Soon.
i've solved the problem by myself... but if i post a new thread it means that i've already searched, and those i've find it isn't enough!
I post on xda because i need to learn to become a complete chef... if i can resolve the problem ever by myself i don't need xda... don't you think?
However i've find the solution in other place... but i've hoped in xda... i wrong!

..and how have you solved your problem?
ok so as the title states im a lil new to this so plz no one freak out on me for posting this.
what i need is a simple step by step on how to backup, flash, load ics (thor i think) on my a501.
any help would be great or if there is this thread already plz link me
or suggestions as to witch rom to load?
ask on his forum.maybe
my best guess would be to fallow the instructions given by the rom developer.
that rom is beta.and has issues.Again you are at the wrong forum to be asking about Non gpl complient software's.

OK, Thor's ICS rom, is on his personal website.
Due to XDA rules and policies, you will find no information on it here at XDA.
And why anybody would want to bring it up, is beyond my comprehension.
You can locate him at Tegraowners.com. And there, you can post all your issues related to his work.
If you wish to discuss his original CWM Recovery, that is ok.
This conversation should be closed. And no, people, you need not to add anything more, because most of you, don't know all the details.
Any further discussion on this topic, may result in the thread being closed.
if you read the question i asked how to root, flash not specific info on thor...
and as my first line i am new and not to get pissy.
so thank you to any one that actually helped or wants to help me

Nobody is getting "pissy", and clearly, you are new, and didn't read the rules.
Considering how Thor, is the only one who has ICS running, and you mentioned it in your OP. That you are trying to get Thor's ICS running.,
Ok, considering you are running Thor's CWM, which I can support.
1. Boot to recovery (hope you know how to do this)
2. Wipe Data
3.Wipe Cache
4. Wipe dalvik
5, Install your rom.zip
Reboot.
If you have issues getting Thor's ICS flashed, you should contact Thor at tegraowners.com
XDA rules prohibit discussing or directly linking to any sites or developers, who use non-compliant code as in accordance with GPL licensing.
So, I am not being "pissy". You failed to understand or most probably, read the rules. I didn't make these rules. But we all have to follow them.
MD
Edit: as an additional note, because you are a 501 user, and I like 501's, I will say, the likely ICS build you want to flash, well, it doesn't support the 501. No camera, and no 3g internal. Ask me how I know. Or you can just flash it, and discover for yourself. But please, do not say, I am pissy, when you didn't understand the rules at xda.
thank you
and i followed with asking other suggestions. i didnt think just mentioning it would be bad as there are other threads that talk about his work

It's ok, and I take no offence.
Thor does great work, this I know.
But, at xda, they have rules, and I am sorry if you got caught in the middle of it, as with most new users.
Sometimes, I can be a little strict.
cool so what exactly did i say wrong? like i said befor i am not the first to talk about him on xda? or about that rom?
You didn't do anything wrong, discussing his work is not against the rules, linking to downloads is. It is just that discussing his work often leads to heated arguments here, so it is often avoided.
lol i didnt link anything........im confused... one guy says im breaking rules and wants to close this thead. you say i didnt?
i was under the impression that this site is here for people to ask questions. that is all i did

Exactly. Sorry if I sounded "pissy". Just tired of putting out fires
We know now, that you have no idea about the prior history.
Ok, no problem. You didn't know. My fault for being so rude, but you have to understand, when you mention Thor, or his code, some holy crusaders will come with crosses thumping. And believe me, they are much worse than me.
I won't tell the "real" story. Most people don't know. They only know a couple of things.
Rule number 1. Discussing Thor CWM version 3x is ok. It's GPL compliant.
Rule number 2. Do not post links to his site or code containing his kernel.
Rule number 3. Try not to discuss his Roms, or anything associated with them. He has his own website at tegraowners. And doing so, will bring the "crusaders", and cause another mess.
Like I said, long story
that is all good, but you guys need to remember that this site is open to anyone that wants to use it, and alot of people like myself have no idea what CWM version 3x is ok. It's GPL compliant or code containing his kernel. even means!!!
and that is why i came here to learn what i can do with my new toy.
i am respectfull of any requests made of me. but i believe in free speech and didnt really like when somone says-
"because most of you, don't know all the details" is not a good reason to not talk about something.
Well, I have tried to be as nice as can be.
Or we can make the mods step in and explain.
Here's the deal, and remember, I am putting this as nice as I can, so as to not step on toes. But, it seems a general explanation is not suffice. Or maybe you don't like russians.
Thor is a developer. A really good one. Because somebody used his code a year ago, and didn't give credit, a big scandal arose. Near before that time, Thor released the CWM recovery version 3x. What you find in Acer Recovery which you got from the market.
GPL licensing, as is recognized, states that all modifications to the "kernel", must be available to all, and that all said source code, must be released and open.
The original CWM Recovery is within this parameter.
Because of the scandal later, Thor decided to not release his source code for kernels. This created a conflict. Because of XDA rules on GPL compliance, Thor left, and created his own website.
Since then, XDA has a rule. You can not post links to any code containing Thor's Kernel. Nor should you discuss any issues concerning any of thor's code that contains his kernels. This includes 3.2, 3.2.1, and ICS roms.
Discussion of any of his products, eventually leads to some horrible posts. I am only trying to avoid this. Not to give you a hard time.
Fortunately, most of the mess has been cleaned up from the last escapade.
I'm really sorry if you felt I was being an ass. But now you know the story, and I hope you understand.
Free speech is ok, but here at XDA, there are some ... rules.
first i like Russians just fine. ( i just played against your paralympic sledge hockey team last week here in canada)
second that is fine with me, i completely understand if there was a conflict between a developer and xda.
i was never trying to fan the flames just trying to figure out what went wrong....
fyi- next time all you need to say is xda and thor dont see eye to eye, and i would have left it there.
thank you for the info.
any way back to the job at hand...
im running 3.2 and i understand i need to revert back to 3.0 to root... i downloaded the file i need as per the tutorial im following...
however they have you boot your device holding the power and vol. down button and a boot screen apears, this dose not happen on my device??? what am i doing wrong?
No problem. Man, if you could witness the stuff I see here, was just trying to stop something, before it started.
Now, to your issue.
I would suggest you run TimmyDean method.
It will give you a rooted 3.2
Hang on a minute, and I'll give you a link.

Now, he has a pdf file included in the zip.
Never used it myself, but others have.
And that number it gives you, write it down, and keep in a safe place for the future. If you ever "hard brick" your tab, you will need it.
Moscow.
cool yea i think i saw that but correct me if im wrong but id need to tinker with it before installing it? changing numbers and ****, im not sure exactly what he was talking about.
im such a newb to this stuff and i dont want to brick it
oh a pdf... ill take a look
thx
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!! Its working again and was fixed as I sespected because they checked the build.prop so I added the new link here for you all to download the new signed version.
So i decided to download the s voice apk dump that was on the main thread and try it on our phone and guess what... IT WORKS
So head over to this thread and scroll down to the bottom of the post download the rar extract it and install the apk like normal then have fun.

P.S it would be a nice feature for roms to have so it could be a good idea to incorporate it in your next release cough cough dzo
I tried on 2 phones - both says error parsing the package. So the link you gave doesn't work on our phones or HTC.
EDIT: of course if it's on ICS than i know why it's not working, because i use Gingerbread. Well then i live withiuth it. i gues it needs wi-fi/3G to work and that's is bad option for me.
what has this got to do with "development"?

not to much but its only in the development section so that developer will find it easier eg dzo and incorporate it into there rom
i bet the forum moderators have alternate views on this..
the development section is a serious place for development-related discussions instead of personal taste-related stuff..

well we will let them to decide when they get round to it but as far as im concerned this is where i reckon it should be
So now, the criteria to post on the development section is whether the poster wants the ROM devs to read or not? LoL
Thank you for posting this!
BUT, I'm on ICS (DZO) 2.04, and the app started OK but now it's just tell's me "unfortunally the application has stopped"
Which ICS are you on?
Moved To General
How is this development? Please post in the correct section!
This version does not needs changes in build.prop:
[App/MOD/Fix] S Voice app- "Network Error" Fix w/o Changing your build Prop
Not tested yet.
---edit---
It's working
I have been waiting for an app like this for a LONG time.
works like a charm... waiting that perhaps appears a version with portuguese language buit in
Haha cheers I just saw this on the main portal and hve edited this post with the new link
I knw marac has specified it there vut i cant understand it bcz of his bad english
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
1) Merruk hasn't specified the method to flash since its too beginner of a task and most android advanced users know that
2) Merruk's English is 100x better than yours
Read the 3rd post by Ronnie Ryan in that thread, it contains detailed explanation of how to flash the kernel, just follow the steps there

First of all his name isn't marac its Maroc-OS and "vut" should be "but" and "I" shall be capital and "can't" I won't talk about it
So don't say that his English is bad but your's is the bad one
secondly just follow the hitme987's post and press Thanks to him
Finally stop asking questions in development thread
TO THE OP:
YOU DARE MOCK SOMEONE BECAUSE OF HIS LANGUAGE?,
Merruk's kernel has been installed thousands of times, and you're the only one complaining about his "english",
let me see what you done so far,
you always create threads for every question you have in mind,
you are wasting air and space in this forum,
learn something and try to do the things yourself,
don't remain ignorant and be like others who try and learn the methods,
Merruk's instructions were clear and good,
I don't see you bragging about your global lexical repertoire? so don't discriminate someone and look yourself in the mirror first or at least get a brain
Srry but whats wrong with u guys.....xda is made fr asking q. And i m making all these threads to get info for my rom which i will start after my exams are over!! I want to knw bcz i want that kernel in my rom cz its the best one out there and i m not mocking or discriminating anyone......i asked him 5 times on how to install but he always ignored and never answered so i created this thread......whats wrong galaxy y community i just asked a simple q. And u guys got to my head....and by saying someone doesnt speak good english doesnt mean i m mocking him bcz no one is perfect.....PEACE OUT:banghead:

Chill down, OP and all other guys. This isn't a place to fight. OP, i suppose you've got your answer (by hitme987). Read the third post in the merruk kernel thread by ronnieryan. It contains tuts on how to flash the kernel via Odin and CWM. Go through it.
I don't mean to lash out on you like the others, so don't take this the wrong way. You've created many threads, obviously nothing wrong in asking questions, but in most of them, you haven't thanked the users who gave you the answers. Please do it, starting with hitme987 in this one.
And best of luck for your rom!:good:

Well, the way you asked isnt a decent way to ask, you mentioned "bad english" in your post, can you quote me ANY word of Maroc-OS thats bad English? May be the thread has too much technical terms, but "bad english" is NOT a way to describe that.
The reason why he ignored your posts is that the query of yours is too SMALL, you often should try to read the whole post before commenting on the topic, the 3rd post there was very clear in the installation procedure, do your homework, no ones gonna do that for you (well, reading the topic literally doesnt take more than 10 mins)
All members of XDA and particularly in our forum always try to help out people, but we also dont encourage disrespecting others (saying his english is bad is a way of disrespecting maroc-os).
You got queries? Post it, we all here are always glad to help others, but try to be more specific about what you post and avoid flaming
Thnx and i installed it!! And i meant technical words....since i m a noob....thnx fr understanding me...all others didnt get me
