Convince me to put DJ05 on

Well I am really sick of waiting for 2.2, when all I wanted was to get a gps fix and some bug fixes. How hard is it to flash DJ05 on? I know my friends itouch was bricked but I was unable to un brick it. Does the same concept apply to phones? If I brick it, will enough re-flashes fixes it?

I installed it. It's fairly simple. My phone wouldn't send texts after I did it because I did it a weird way. All I did was flash a DJ05 rom from the market. I got everything to work by flashing the radio in odin, then everything was fine. Just flash the new radio,and download a rom from rom manager that says DJ05. It's very simple and it gave me many new abilities. I even got the gingerbread theme and fooled all my friends haha

There should be a DJ05 installation guide on irc.
Rockin' DJ05, Minimal Icognito, Clocked at 1.3Ghz

Wrong section. If you have to ask, probably shouldn't flash it man.

Also you why would you ask someone to convince you to get dj05?? It really doesnt matter to us if you get dj05 or not. You should decide if you want the changes regardless of the risk it entails.

DJ05 helped me lose 50 lbs, and cured my IBS.
It also made my GPS usable. :-D

This is the wrong forum for this question but I'll tell you if you read and follow the instructions for
1. Rooting your phone.
2. Installing Clockwork ROM Manager
3. Installing DJ05
You will very likely have a working GPS on your Fascinate. There are a few places in the instructions where you have to read between the lines. PM me if you want the links to the instructions I followed.

Just got Samsung Vibrant!! How do I update to 2.2 Stock? Help please.

Hello.
I just got this phone, and it is UNLOCKED and stock 2.1 on it.
I would like to update to the official 2.2 and keep the unlocked, can someone point me to the right direction and tell me how that will be done?
I heard the 2.2 is not out officially, but it is leaked, so that leaked version is the full 2.2 stock or something missing?
I heard something about rooting, flashing, but I am not sure what that means as I just got this phone.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

root the phone 1st then download rom manager then pick a rom eugene's , sombionix, or master are all good read up on them and then pick one
down load it on to your computer then load into the internal sd card then reboot in to recovery or through clockwork (rom manager) and load it up.. If you can't follow read up on the sticky's in this forum it explains way better.........

Look in here for all your needs and tools that you'll want to get started on getting Root, ClockworkMod Recovery and a Custom Rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771111
Look in here for all the different Roms. (ie Android 2.1 roms or Android 2.2 roms)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=711
Just like oka1 said, you need to root your device first. Then get rom manager from the market and install clockworkmod recovery through it. When your done with that download any rom you want and put it on your Internal Memory (Phone Storage) on the root of it. Then flash through Clockworkmod. Hope its enough. ;D

Words are sounding very complicated, but I am sure its not just need to learn how to do the steps....
Also the 2.2 will fix GPS, and have Full Flash browser right?
Can I use this to root? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=739300
Also if I brick this phone as I am new at it, can it be recovered?
And where do I find the stock 2.2, please?
Thanks.

Look in the development forum or use search. It's all there, and trivial to find.

My signature should teach you everything you need.
for the rom, go to the development section... There is a sticky called the bible. It has everything.
I personally would flash nero v3 (not the beta 3). Most on here agree it's amazing.
Also, Vibrant's are REALLY hard to brick... Worst case you can use odin to get back to stock 2.1. Thid is also covered in my signature.
Now, with all that said... Samsung promised froyo by year end. You may want to wait a few days (I'd still take nero over an ota, just giving you all the information. They may not deliver)

I would just leave it factory cause I see this ending in a soft brick and you freaking otu thinking you ruined your phone when you didnt

Learn how to use Odin FIRST, then learn how to root, then learn how to flash, all of this is covered somewhere in this forum.....search a little and you'll be flashing in no time.
Sent from THE Vibrant......

The newest and greatest is Nero 3 by team whiskey, its a custom 2.2, but with a gingerbread (2.3) feel and look. They have been at it for a a while and this is a wonderful rom. Check out my thread in this (vibrant general) forum for links and all the tips you need just ask.
I'd love to help.

Canada just got the official 2.2 Froyo update. Can't you just use that download?

Thank you for your replies, I am reading the guides now and hopefully everything works out.
Can someone please tell me does 2.2 have full flash browser?

[Q] Rip stock radio?

I have searched hi and low, left and right. Oh and just about the entire internet. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to rip a radio/baseband from a phone (Galaxy s/Showcase/Fascinate). I am pretty experienced with adb and other command prompt tools in the sdk. I need to rip a radio to help restore a phone to stock. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

We don't know where the radio file gets flashed to. Have you looked in the Development forum? You should be able to find the DI01, DJ05, and DL09 modems in there if you need them.

Thanks for the info. I tried all of those radio/modems. My stock modem is actually 04K.DJ20. SO I am thinking there is a minor difference between the Verizon and the Cellular South Showcase radio/modems. Which means there might be a minor difference in the fascinate and the showcase. Thank you for the ideas, as I did not think about the other modems.

Didn't realize that you were on the Showcase.

Sorry, Have A few questions

Well quick background information. I acquired my first samsung continuum 3 weeks ago, bricked it, and had to return it and get another one.
So while i waited for my new phone to arrive in the mail i was reading thread after thread and tutorials and guides to the Android OS, Samsung Continumm, Kernels, ROMS, etc.
Once my phone arrived i had a whole bunch of knowledge about it and successfully Rooted it using SuperOneClick, Flashed CWM into it, and flashed the PeanutButterJelly kernel. Yes Without messing it up again.
Well here are my questions:
1) Where can i find the official adrynalyne's rom for the continuum(yes i used the search button but didnt have much luck.
2) Is there a continuum radio file posted somewhere in the forum? people were talking about it in the forum but nobody can tell me where it is.
3) Could I constantly keep flashing kernels and roms or is there a limit to how many times i can do that?
4) If there happens to be an update from verizon, will rooting,replacing kernels and roms, take away the ability to download it.
Sorry again for the random questions, and if you tell me to use the "Search" option can you at least let me know exactly what to type in so i can find the right answer. Thanks You.
And one more thing, What is your phone set up, as in:Kernel,Rom,any mods, battery saving apps, root-only apps.

...
*sigh*
more questions...
1. The ROM is located under the android development section of our forum.
Here's a link to the ROM though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943402
2. There is no radio file. There has been talk of it because we found out that the Fascinate radio files work with the continuum. We don't have our own though :'(
3. There is no limit besides the amount of ROMs and kernels you want to try.
4. Custom ROMs always in my experience disable the OTA updates that Verizon puts out. All you have to do though is revert back to stock and download the update if you truly want it.

Flashing ROMs and kernals will prevent you from being able to download any Verizon updates.

[Q] Wifi error CM7 Nightly 4

I really hope this doesn't violate the rules of this board, but I am not able to post in the Dev forum, and I have a TON of questions. Most of my questions are being answered by other users having the same issues as me and I've followed this thread religiously.
I have been having intermittent Wifi errors since I started using CM7 for the Epic 4G. First, I Flashed my ROM with CM7 nightly 2, but realized by looking through the thread that I did it wrong. I was supposed to flash RC0 first, then flash the nightlies over it. Noob mistake, no worries.
Now I've been flashing each nightly, and last night's (#4) broke my Wifi again. Two other people have had the same problem.
Also, I have tried deleting /etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf but still get the same error.
Could I get some help, or someone send a carrier pigeon to the l33t dev forum to bring up this issue again?

I flashed #4 last night and wifi is working fine for me.. (i'm on it constantly at work) i didn't do a clean install though, i just wiped both caches and flashed over RC0.

I will try wiping the caches and re-flashing #4 again. I have just been flashing each nightly over top the previous nightly without wiping caches.

Please try to Odin back to EC05 stock, OTA to EI22, then flash back to CM7. This fixed wifi on two of my Epic's. I can't explain why. Please report back if this fixes the issue for you?

Still getting an error, going to try deleting /etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf after Titanium is finished restoring.

Not to be a douche nozzle or anything, but this is the General Forum Why didn't you post this in the QnA forum haha.
But i guess IMO CM7 unofficial works different on different phones, some have the problems and some don't.

That's a good question, and the only answer I have to that is that I saw other people had posted ROM-specific problems in this forum so I thought it would be a good start.
I figured that the Q&A form was more for questions like "How do I root my phone?" as opposed to asking troubleshooting questions for specific ROMs.

Not true lol i have threads and they get troubleshooted all the time hence the "QnA" Part lol. All questions go there and sub questions related to the specific thing causing it stays in the dev section in that thread. whereas this forum is the general stuff.

Nope, the "Q & A" forum is for all questions related to the Epic. All unrelated stuff is what the "General" forum is meant for. Though you wouldn't think that looking at how cluttered "General" is with similar threads.
Also you titled your thread with "[Q]", so that would be a clear indicator you should have posted in the "Q & A" forum. It's all good, I'm not harping on ya.
Wish I could assist with your problem, but I don't use CM. Good luck in finding a resolution.

Let its know if you get out fixed. I've been thinking about switching over to mtd but have held off because of the reported wifi problems.

Its not too bad and you might be lucky some people have the issues and some dont, just give it a shot. once it connects it'll stay connected unless you tell it otherwise.

Thanks for the advice, and I'll keep this in mind for the future. If anyone wants to move this thread to Q&A that is fine with me, but hopefully I'll get to 10 posts soon and none of this will be an issue.
Something strange has happened since I Odined back to Froyo. I cannot connect to my wifi, but not the same error. I'm able to scan for networks, but when I try to type in my network key it won't authenticate. This means the OTA to Gingerbread will take a bit longer, but I'm hoping that this is just a glitch and I'll have wifi working again soon after Gingerbread or flashing CM7.
Also, I should note that I'm using the Ronin7 kernel, I flash it every time I do a nightly CM7 update and I did upgrade my modem to EI22 before flashing CM7.

Had I done it right the first time, this would have been the first wifi problem I've had with MTD, and the way it's looking there is a slight chance that this is unrelated to any mods, but hopefully it will work with stock Gingerbread or a reboot.

@ OP:
Open this post and snag the update file. Waiting for OTA sucks.
RE: different kernel -- If you used ODIN to go back to EC05 and still have Wifi issues, then try being on 100% stock and retry. When troubleshooting issues, try not to toss in anything new/different.

Weird, wifi is now working with stock Gingerbread update. About to root and flash CM7.

Noobnl's root + CWM script does not seem to be working with EI22. Is there a good reason I should be doing this, or is it just to get the EI22 modem, because I can flash that manually.

One-click root method does not work with Gingerbread.
You will need to ODIN a rooted kernel, then ODIN CWM. If you keep the stock kernel, then it will overwrite CWM with stock recovery every time.
You can find the steps for all of this in the linked post in my previous reply here. Just be sure to use CWM v5 rather than v3. Version 5 was not release when I wrote that guide.

Thank you, but do you really think this is necessary or is the only reason for this to get the EI22 modem?

You don't have to jump through so many hoops for a clean install. Just odin ec05 and cwm, flash the ec05 to ei22 modem zip in cwm, then flash the cm7 zip.
