Install Darky's Extreme Edition 9.3 The Fast & Easy Way - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to this site and guess it's my first time to start a thread. First of all I've been reading this site for so long and I have learned a lot. Thank you for this wonderful site for teaching me how to install different kernel and roms. Because of this I would like to bring back what I know to the community by letting you know how to install one of my favorite rom the fast and easy way. Thank you Darky for your wonderful rom all credits goes to you.
Please note that this is the easiest way if you don't want to do a lot of hacking in your pc like installing any software like odin just to install Darky's rom.
*** I do not make any guarantee of this type of procedure but I have tried it using 3 different galaxy s as me and my friends has successfully done this procedure, follow at your own risk, this is tested only on Firmware 2.2 Baseband I900XXJPY ***
Let's make this short and here is how you do it.
*** Daryk's rom installation for dummies unorthodox ***
Note: I love the dummies books so don't get offended with this. Just like to name it like this because the book offers fast easy way to learn things.
Step 1: Download z4root, install and root your phone. Click Here
Step 2: Download speedmod one click install in android market and install.
Step 3: Download Darky's Rom configurator in android market and install.
Step 4: Open Darky's Rom Configurator and leave everything default except kernel option just pick speedmod, you can configure anything you want at your own risk.
Step 5: Download Darky's Rom Zip File Click Here look for Normal CWM Version. Transfer it to your internal memory do not extract just transfer the zip.
Step 6. Shutdown your galaxy s.
Step 7: Go to your clockworld menu by clicking the up volume key + on button + home button all at the same time, once you see the Galaxy S screen let go of the buttons.
Step 8: In the menu scroll down to install from zip from sdcard and press your home screen to select.
Step 9: In the menu scroll down to choose zip from sdcard. Then locate where you put your Dary's Rom. Then select it by pressing your home button. This should install Dary's Rom.
Step 10: Once done select the go back menu and then reboot menu on your clockworld screen. Wait a while it takes time to go to your home screen after the first reboot as it's doing some configurations it may take 5 to 7 minutes.
and thats it you should have the darky's rom v 9.3 installed. If there is anything you want to modify in this guide let me know and I will gladly do it for you.
Credits goes out to Darky, My Friends Gimo for helping and for some good inputs, I'm pretty sure that he lurks around here and helps at times and Wilfredo for letting us use his phone as a sacrifice lamb hehehe.

No worries we are glad to bring back to the community hehehe.

This will only work on 2.2, speedmod is only compatible with froyo and z4root does not work on 2.2.1

I see but me and friends didn't had any problem with speedmod yet I guess because we haven't replaced or do any harsh configuration on it yet if there is any hehehe but I will take note of your comment, thanks for that.

You could be right that's why I have a disclaimer. I will try to update this as necessary if you have another alternative and you are sure that it works as easy kindly let me know and we will update this thanks.

I appreciate your effort but for sure you need to make it complete or to mention on which devices it worked without any problems...
Just check 1st post from Darky thread and there you will see somewhere the wording:
>> [Guide] Installation Guide for First Time Users
which links to Darky's installation notes at http://darky.ficeto.com/community/i...-installation-guide-for-first-time-users.315/
Maybe you can work on that one explaining in more detail each step for newbies (btw. "noobs" isn't the same as "newbies" and it shouldn't be used only when you are mocking someone)
Good luck,
B.

c4root doesn't work with 2.2.1 roms the step just to install cwm to flash speedmod is kind of useless you can just flash darkys resurrection with odin download darky config and flash the newest version.... all steps together 10min without download....
you could use one click root beforehand so you can use titanium backup... .
guide 4steps :
1 flash darkys resurrection
2 download darky config and configure
3.flash newest darky
4. have fun

Thanks for your advice mate. I will follow your advice on explaining things in detail, for the guide however I already got to that guide long before and that is what I used on my own handphone but the alternative steps that I presented is what I and my friends found to be the easiest way.
For the devices on which one works, I have it on my disclaimer in red.

Great info

Looks like you posted just to say thank you, you are welcome guys. Good to see nice people here.

Just a warning so not to confuse people that really are beginners and probably wont realise this... You might want to change the part where it says 2.2 JPY to 2.2.1 JPY at the top of the first post.

Mate I appreciate your comment could you explain your comments more? what I said in my guide is:
*** I do not make any guarantee of this type of procedure but I have tried it using 3 different galaxy s as me and my friends has successfully done this procedure, follow at your own risk, this is tested only on Firmware 2.2 Baseband I900XXJPY ***
Before we did this our firmware was really 2.2 and baseband is 1900XXJPY.

I would not recommend installing darky's resurrection as it auto lagfixes due to it using voodoo kernel.
Just flash any froyo rom and then speedmod for cwm, then flash your custom rom.

JPY is 2.2.1 which is what speedmod kernel is compatible with.
JPY isnt 2.2 thats completey different... 2.2 was for baseband JPM etc in earlier versions...
I think that if somebody tried to flash speedmod kernel onto 2.2 they would run into problems.
Also mate just to pick up on something else... Im not 100% sure on this but i dont think that z4root works on 2.2.1 JPY it only works on 2.2 ( or that was my understanding of it a long time ago... it could have been updated somehow to work on 2.2.1 )
Superoneclick root is the most renowned way to root a 2.2.1 device...
Not trying to rape your thread or anything mate... Im just trying to give some constructive feedback to make this thread as accurate as possible.
If it wasn't for these threads a lot of people would get no where.
There are loads of different ways to get darkyy's rom onto a your device from flash cf-root for 2e and installing rom manager from the market for CWM or flashing speedmod kernel for the CWM built in and then flashing the CWM version of the rom but if your looking for the FASTEST way, it would have to be going through ressurection if im completely honest.

Well that the speedmod kernel dont work on 2.2 is definitley wrong! I am on stock 2.2 and i am using k13c - works nicely. Also in the speedmod thread he states that the kernel works with every 2.2 or 2.2.1 rom.

- Based on JPX Android 2.2.1 kernel source
- Works on all stock Froyo 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROMs and popular custom ROMs
Thanks for the correction i apologise.
I was just going on the fact i knew it was based on 2.2.1 firmware, but as you say yes it does work on 2.2 aswel.
Thanks for clarifying that. My mistake

Would this work on GT-I9000 with Firmware version 2.2?
Sorry - newbie alert here:
My phone's "settings->About Phone" screen says:
Model Number: GT-I9000
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: I9000HVJP3
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #6
Build number: FROYO.HVJP4
It's a phone from Vodafone Australia which was upgraded from the original 2.1 to the official 2.2 via Kies then root'ed.
I'm a bit confused by the arguments here about 2.2.1 vs. 2.2 - Do you expect these instructions work on my phone?
Also - if I execute them - am I correct to understand that this only installs a new ROM but the kernel and the Android version will stay the same, allowing me to retain the Navigon application which came with the phone? (I hardly use it but plan to use it when I travel abroad and don't know what kind of network coverage I'll have).
Thanks!

Guidance needed after Root :)

there are couple of questions i want to ask and needing some sort of a guide although there are plenty here. I just want to clarify some points.
I already 'root'ed my fascinate through z4root and planning to install CWM.
Now after all of this, I looked at this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869990
the DJ05 is what I'm planning to 'flash' and there are 2 files under each category; Radio, Rom, and Kernel.
Does it matter which one to flash from the two listed on each category?
Also, is it required to have a kernel if I get the rom?
thanks guys! this will really help me a lot
You Needed to flash the radio in odin then both the rom and kernel in cwm. You don't have to use that kernel and rom combo though. I am running. Super dark rom and a voodoo kernel but that's just me. But you do have to run a compatible rom and kernel combo.
also, you should stay away from voodoo kernels until you do some proper research.
Question. There are two.links on the link I posted for each category; radio, rom, and kernel. Do I need to use the first or second? Also, do I need to have a kernel after I flash the rom
bumppppppp
Without looking at the post, they are probably just mirrors. Sometimes u get faster download from one over the other.

i don't really think so.. check this out.
Radio:

http://backup.galaxysense.com/adrynalyne/dj05modem.tar
This gets flashed via Odin, in the PDA section.
System/rom:
http://rom.galaxysense.com/DJ05_stock.zip
http://backup.galaxysense.com/DJ05_stock.zip
This gets flashed via clockwork.
Kernel:

http://backup.galaxysense.com/1212_t...odoo_fascinate
*one is ROM and one is backup. so do i use the first file?
Both links will download the same file. The second link is in case the server for the first link goes down.

Yep =) except for the kernel link... the first kernel is a non-voodoo kernel, second is voodoo so you can choose which you'd like to run =)

after flashing the Rom, is the Kernel optional to have?

The Noobs Guide to Root/ROM/Kernel/Theme Your Samsung Galaxy S! - By Totallydubbed

Hey everyone!
I have made video guides for 2.3.4 - Which can be found HERE
However this thread is solely for 2.2.1 & 2.3.3 videos!
So why am I posting?
Well I make videos - I love making videos, and I find personally the best way to understand something is to actually SEE IT for your own eyes - Not read it (I always hated reading)
So this thread is for those that don't like reading and like to get shown how to do things - tutorial or guides in other words.
ALL the videos are made by me
ALSO REMEMBER WHEN THE VIDEOS ARE MADE BY ME, I HAVE INCLUDED ALL THE LINKS TO WHAT I TALK ABOUT IN THE VIDEO DESCRIPTIONS!
Please do check that out!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First off videos that work on both 2.2.1 & 2.3.3!
How to root your phone - EASY guide - SuperOneClick Method:
How to Unlock your phone (SIM unlock/not needed for SIM UNLOCKED users, like myself):
How to Disable/or upgrade your Voodoo - May be done in other ROM's and other Recoveries too (CWM in this case running on Voodoo 5.5.1) (In case you had it previously on, and you wanted to flash a NEW ROM or a NEW Kernel that has Voodoo too, VERY IMPORTANT to do, to prevent any conflict with ROM's or KERNELS):
If you are having phone/battery issues - Your Modem might be to blame - How to flash a new modem:
How to apply a bootanimation.zip - thus custom boot animations (Not as easy as the CWM versions)
How to install Swype on your SGS - in case it wasn't there, or have a slimmed down version, such as 10.1 RE and need it:
How to flash kernels very easily - Dark Core 2.5 is demonstrated in this case!
If you had enough or want to send it back in for warranty and want to go back to a STOCK ROM, this video shows how to go back to a 2.2.1 default ROM which in this case is JPU based, then update it to JPY and thus further updating it via Kies to JVO:
How to fix Carrier Issues on the Samsung Galaxy S
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Videos for 2.3.3! ONLY
First the latest JVH based videos!
How to flash the SLIMMED DOWN version of 10.1 - Resurrection - (ODIN flash)
Flashes the base JVH (replacing the old JVH flash) and can be used as a base when applying 10.1
Also about re-partitioning = follow this video !
Here is Ceriko's 10.1 version! It is basically identical to Resurrection, however can be applied via CWM3 - Thus if you are currently on 10.1 and want a slimmer version of 10.1, but do not want to use ODIN - thi is by far the BEST method!
How to flash the NEW RC 10.1 from the Darky team!
How to flash - Ficeto's JVH ROM - ODIN version:
OPTIONAL - Once on 2.3.3 and on Darky's 10.1 you can flash over a hack - which allows you to have the circle battery mod + green settings - YOU MUST be on 10.1 before you do this - although the link will have the full ROM just changes made to it.

How to flash a CUSTOM ROM - ODIN method + CWM (ROM Manager) - Darky's v9.4 in the video (this method can be used for any Darky ROM or any other ROM that uses ODIN) I DO USE 9.4 IN THIS VIDEO, but you may use the SAME method for other versions, such as Darky's 9.5. THIS ONLY APPLIES TO FROYO 2.2/2.2.1. DO NOT use this same method for GINGERBREAD/2.3/2.3.3
How to apply a new theme, here I apply Crysis21's RevolutioN (MAKE SURE THE THEME IS COMPATIBLE - CHECK THE DEV'S THREAD TO BE SURE!) :
How to apply the 2.2.1 fix for Crysis21's RevolusioN theme - For Darky users!

Miscellaneous things:
If you are on 2.2.1 and on Hardcore's Speedmod kernel, the best settings by far (also grants you over 1.9k quadrant scores) can be found here (might be slightly dangerous to paly around with these settings, so do so at your OWN risk:

Could you make a guide on how to get rid of Dark voodoo and install the latest Speedmod on to Darky's Rom 9.5?

that would be:
reinstalling Darky's 9.5 through recovery but this time ticking speedmod as kernel instead of dark voodoo
I might switch back to 9.4 and or get speedmod back.
I'm hating dark voodoo...it uses way too much battery.

Is it possible to disable dark voodoo via clockwork recovery, then select speedmod in Darky's app and reinstalling 9.5 with no wipe. Or do you have to do a fresh install?

nop you can't do that
Although you will have to disable the lagfix (as shown in the video if it is enabled) before you install anything over it.
Do you know what version of SpeedMod comes with 9.5? Is it the latest K13D, or an older version?
Edit:
Nevermind you've already answered me, cheers.
Useful information I sent to a youtuber:
Hi there!
Good to hear the gd news (he was having boot loops)
Several things:
-If you see that you are getting quite a lot of battery drain, I suggest changing the modem.
THUS:
the JVE can be changed to another one, like mine JPG and so on:
Here is how to:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAg01h5tLV8
Links in description
+
More modems here:
(Enter it, then look under "2. i9000" then modems)
http://perka.zapto.org/
I have tried so far these modems:
-JVE
-JQ1
-JPY
-ZSJPE
-ZSJPG - currently on this one - seems to be working fine.
Modems determine several things:
GPS lock
Battery drain
Call quality and speed of surfing the internet over data network
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: you can also change the kernel for example, but stay on dark core for the time being.
I went from: Voodoo 4.5 to speedmod k13d to Voodoo 5.5.2 to dark core 1.0 to voodoo 5.5.3, back to dark core 1.0 back to k13d then to Damian's GTO
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Themes:
How to apply CWM themes can be found here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpjzUBNYmsg
IF YOU ARE PUTTING THE ONE, I HAVE CRYSIS REVOLUTION DO THIS before flashing it over (because the theme is so big)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEq_9X9yBvs
Just make sure you DO NOT install a GINGERBREAD THEME, as it won't work. youa re on 2.2.1 NOT 2.3
Conclusion:
First: Sort out your battery issues, leave the phone running for several days see how it goes, you should be getting over 10hrs on a single charge, i get over 24hrs
I got:
Voodoo kernels: 8hrs
Dark core: 12hrs
K13D: 28hrs
Damian's: 24hrs + (still testing)
So do this for 3 battery cycles:
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/guide-how-to-calibrate-your-battery.321/
then once you find that the kernel is fine with you, move to a theme.
If it isn't then change modem (as explained before)
If modem doesn't work, like you have tried the ones i suggested before + ones that relate to your region, then try a new kernel...that we can talk about later, but you can see which ones i chose.
Once the modem + kernel is fixed then move to a theme
The theme is the last thing you want to be worried about.
Once the theme is sorted you got the best phone out there, currently and can say "LOL AT YOU iFAIL4 user!"
Enjoy
Let me know how u get on.

Woah! Para sa mga pinoy!
Although there are not much unique features on our phone, AFAIK it is an international version with Asian firmware, I think this thread will be useful in helping out other pinoys specially those who are new. And also will keep them informed about the current and upcoming trends in PHP.
First question, anong latest version ng stock firmware jan? (I converted my phone's product code from GLB to XEU) Does Globe has plan to keep it updated?
Latest stock F/W is still froyo... gingerbread is still not here in philippines... globe doesnot really support... they dont even know about it... i run rooted... plus we have just been introduce to android so i dont think that they have any idea about it... im on XEE just to run gingerbread on phone..
enjoy flashing...cheers....
Ahaha i know the company that customized the firmware specifically for Globe. Goodluck and happy flashing!
best support is from Greenhills Tiangge

CM7 is not particularly newbie friendly. Darky's ROM is probably the most popular here. You can just change the themes by looking at the themes section afterwards.
thank you for the tips. I am now downloading the latest one.

+1... darky roms are great... @tj_cute: you know how to use odin right... i suggest using the ressurection edition froyo by darky... easy flash and stable... after that if you wants gingerbread u can also try there rc5 final ... or simply honey... easy install and great stability...
enjoy flashing...cheers....
Guys... Simone201 just released his Simplyhoney rom based on gingerbread... It very fast and stable... I suggest flashing the wipe.options....

I9100G users Unite!

Introduction
I've had my I9100G for more than a week now and to date there's no hint of anyone working on a custom ROM or mod for it. I guess we'll have to resign ourselves to the fact that it's not really a popular model for the regular devs and if we want to get some mods or custom roms on our phones, we have to do it ourselves. I'm currently working on customising my phone, but since I have a day job and little actual experience in Android, it's going to take some time before I can put anything out. So I'm inviting fellow I9100G users to join me in the effort to get some mods developed for the I9100G.
Kernel
Firstly, the kernel. AFAIK, there are two available kernels so far for the I9100G - KH4 (Android 2.3.4) and KI1 (Android 2.3.5). There are rooted versions for both, but as of now only the KH4 one has CWM recovery. In addition, Samsung has released the source code for the KH4, but I'm yet to find the source code for the KI1. I'l like to develop for the KI1, but without a source code and CWM recovery for the kernel, efforts are limited. So I appeal to anyone who knows where we can get the source code for KI1 or can help get CWM on the KI1, please respond!
Mods
So far I've deodexed my phone running on KI1 and managed to get the battery percentage mod on it using the UOT. That one's pretty simple. This weekend I hope to try some more mods like the Advance Power Menu, for one. Once I get that done, I'll share on xda. Appreciate suggestions on what mod we can apply that's useful, but too complicated. If anyone manage to produce mods for your I9100G, appreciate if you could share.
Hopefully once we have a few mods done for the I9100G, we can consolidate them into a custom ROM for our phone.
Let's work together to make our phone better!
I would like to join with little experience on android .
I understand our target is to make custom Rom for the g model, but do you think its we can make it possible to flash other i9100 custom roms with sgx 540 processor ?
Can we have a list of things to start with to acheive that?
Btw, i tried deodexeding and i didn't success. Any advice on this .
Thanks

Hi ss219100g,
We can't flash I9100 custom ROMs into the I9100G. I tried flashing VillainRom onto mine, but I couldn't make it work. Needs someone with more knowledge and experience, I suppose. All I can try right now is try to apply various modes I pick up from xda onto my phone.
So far I've managed to apply the Battery percentage and Advanced Power Menu mods. I'll share them later today. I'm still looking around for the next thing to try. Any suggestions?
For deodexing, I used xUltimate. The link's here:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/xeudoxus/47283-release-xultimate.html
Basically, I copied the contents of /system/app and /system/framework to \origi_frame\ and \origi_app\, run the tool, then copied the results back onto the phone. Remember to delete the *.odex files in the phone.
hi, i one of the new sgs2g user.
i would like to join and hoping if we could ever make some custom rom for this version.
but i still noob bout android, and this is my first android phone.
i was able to root my dzki1 kernel, using insecure kernel and abd command, but unable to flash cwm recovery, is there way to flash it?
and other thing, what is deodex and odex? i try google,but could not understand

It's not the one from Odia's thread, is it? I tried that one but it's rooted, but doesn't have CWM.
so meaning to say that until to-date there are no available custom ROM for the GT-I9100G devices??

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm fairly sure the only issues you have are with te modem that's installed causing degraded data network service. I can test tonight as I have a 8100g laying around atm.
Scratch that it was the 9100T i was thinking of

In short:
1) Root
2) Deodex - use xUltimate
3) Use UOT Kitchen
Sorry I can't give more details. I'm away from my PC right now. Please search for the above tools.

anyone tried this custom ROM? encountered the yellow triangle?

i did and that's normal, you get a yellow triangle because you installed an unofficial (insecure) rom or kernel, don't worry about it, it doesn't affect the stability of your phone in any way, it's just for saying that you have intalled a custom feature (rom or kernel)!

Is it okay to install a rom directly on the stock samsung firmware?

guys is it okay to install this rom directly from stock samsung android 2.1?
i haven't installed anything on my cell phone, its not rooted etc aswell. Just got it and wanna install kyrillos immidietely

hi
1. read carefully on how to use Odin
2. it is always advisable to do a factory/Data wipe and wipe delvi cache and then flash the ROM via odin and if u want to go back to the stock rom dont worry just look in the rollup thread and u will see some links with stock rom with out boot loader for u to flash
good luck and be care full read carefully before attempting to flash
Like it has been said before, it´s ok.
Just remember to follow the guide and you´ll be just fine.
I recommend to flash the Kyrillos Rom 9.2 with G3Mod 2.2.2 noc oc.
Hit thanks if it helped you anyway.
Best of luck
Thanks alot harree.
Also what about the Overclock thingy? and one more question i read in one of the threads that a bettery stats wipe should be done after installing the rom. Well i searched around and i couldn't find a thread on how to do that. I would appreciate if someone can help with that.
@iam_dragonmaster, how can i install the g3mod 2.2.2 non oc (i figure this is a kernal? how can i install a kernal when installing the rom?) with kyrillos rom? besides i can only install kyrillos 9.0 i think then have to use the update.zip thingy to update.

Boot into recovery using the extended boot menu and apply the update for kyrillos 9.2 by selecting zip from SD card and of course you need to put the update in your SD card. You can download g3mod kernel and flash it via Odin one package and it does not wipe your data . Also you can download the battery calibration app from the market and install it and follow the instructions. For me i use Zeppelinroxs die hard battery calibrator script. Can be found with the beta/test releases of v6 supercharger.
