Just saw this here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Omnia_II/Initial_Support_Andromnia_II
If you are i920 owner you need to use uncompressed kernel image, try these:
follow my guide 1-2
download uncompressed kernel image from here
put Image file into root directory of your Omnia's SD Card (Storage Card)
edit default.txt (in your phone!) file and change "set kernel zImage" to "set kernel Image" (notice - no "z" letter!)
follow my guide 3-8 no vaaaaaaaaaaaa

I would like to, but I am unsure how this beta performs on i920, it seems a bit different from i8000 though.
However, here is the link to the MoDaCo Forum on i920, maybe you should check it out because that was the dedicated forum for i920 users on Omnia2Droid.
**Link down at the moment, will update the link once the link is accessible.

Alright thanks Im just trying to get the Andromnia II installed now keeps failing and rebooting
Guess I grabbed a crappy omnia 2 of craigslist.. just waiting on the droid bionic now

Does anyone have the link for uncompressed kernal file for the omnia i920 it is not posted on the madaco link

i have been using xrom for about two months now and just now tried to boot a donut build with the new base files but now Haret wont even boot into linux its stuck at the Haret boot screen... I have formated the SD card and have the newest basefiles with a new system file and how been using android for months now and this has never happened before. Could anyone help with this?
you might have a file named wrong or corrupt or missing file.

it means you prob had a corrupt file. since you replaced it and it works. but you solved your own problem. what kernel gave you problems? so we can let people know there are problems with it.
no there was no kurupt file and all files are named properly, i have helped many people here in vegas get android on their phone so I would like to think i know what im doing atleast set up wise. I have the correct settings for donut on my default.txt and are using all the newest files from google-vogue. The hang up on haret is becoming a major headache, i replaced the new kernal last time with an old one from sept (last time i upgraded the files) and it booted perectly and quick. Now the last line of code reads "attempting to reset in 3 secs" I have let it sit for 10, 15 and 20 mins with the same results... not a damn thing. I have reformatted the SD card everytime and have no other files but the android files on the SD card. Has anyone else experianced this? If someone using the newest donut build could upload their files somewhere because unless im a huge idiot I swear im following all instructions to a T. Someone please help... Im not as lazy as my name states its just the only name i could think of haha so please no flaming

[SOLVED] TG01 US ROM Update? (Error occurred during system reset)

Hi everyone, if you are having trouble with upgrading the ROM on the US TG01, then this is your topic! Here are the few things you must do the update the ROM:
-Fully charge your battery
-Format your MicroSD card to FAT32, then create a folder called "prg" (don't type the speech marks), and place your ROM in there, and don't forget to change it's extension to .enc from .tsw
-Remove the black tab under the SIM slot, beware, pull it upward, not forward
-Can you see the three "yellow circles" on the SIM slot? The first and third one are what we wanted the connet together. Link/connect them with a wire
-Push the power button for 10 seconds
-Wait a little bit
Done!
Don't thank me, thank leeston for all his continous support, hey, thank you again man!

Not enough detail for me to help you. Please reply to the following.
1. Which method did you use, short pin or sddl+?
2."just restarting", do you mean that the sd downloader doesn't start and goes straight to Toshiba screen or it starts then resets the device making no changes?
3.If the sd downloader starts, does it say 'Variant Invalid' briefly before it restarts?
If you dont know what shortpin or sddl+ means then look HERE.
Sorry, I did not informed you very well,
I've used the sddl+ method. Clicking on the sddl+ restarts the device, just like a soft reset. If I click on the SD downloader, then it says "Invalid filename".
Thanks for the reply.
Now the SD Downloader says "Error occurred during system reset" when I click Download.
Err?
I'm wondering, is that too difficult to help a mate who is having a problem? PLEASE???

I assume you've read the sticky about rom flashing and are still having problems, follow the guide below and let me know how it went.
Download my ROM from HERE.
Download 7Zip from HERE.
Download sddl+ from HERE.
1.Install 7Zip
2.Right click "TG01WP_StonromR7.7z" and choose "7Zip -> Extract to "TG01WP_StonromR7.7z\"" (This will create a folder called "TG01WP_StonromR7" in the same place as the downloaded file)
3.UnRAR sddl+
4.On your storage card create a folder named "prg" (no speech marks)
5.Copy "TG01WP_Stonrom.tsw" to the "prg" folder on your storage card.
6.Copy sddl+ to the root of your storage card. (root = not in a folder, just straight on the card)
7.Open file explorer and go to your storage card and open sddl+
8.You will now have a white screen, with the text "sd downloader - do not remove battery or storage card" (it may not say exactly this, i can't remember just now)
9.Wait
10.Wait a bit more
11. The phone should restart after a bit of waiting, the first boot can take a long time. Be patient.
I only say use my rom because i know it flashes and boots on my 2 devices.
If this doesn't work, pay attention to the on screen messages during flashing and post them here word for word, along with which rom you tried and any other info that you can provide.
Thanks again for your help, downloading right now, I'll inform you about the process.
It doesn't work, only says "Invalid filename" if I click on the TG01_SDDL.
If I click on the tg01_sddl+, the device just restarts, no further changes, still the same problem.
???
BTW, I changed the ROM's name to TG01WP_00.tsw, now the SD Downloader says "Error occurred during system reset".

Only thing i can think of is to rename the .tsw to .enc.
I tried that too. It doesn't work neither.
BUT,
Thank you very, very much for your afford.
Post edited, detailed informations added.
Have you tried updating you TG with the manufacturer update instead of a cooked ROM? Just to prove that flashing is possible on your device.
I would suggest using the official update and SD Downloader from Toshiba.
Please post back with your experiences.
Yes, actually I've tried with the TG01WP-WM6.5-UK file. Result: Same

Where did you get the file? The correct file name should be "TG01WP_5005000176.tsw" or "TG01WP_5005000167.tsw" not "TG01WP-WM6.5-UK"
Just to clarify, is it an Orange UK TG01? Did you buy it from a shop or second hand?
I got the file from Toshiba's official web site (Europe).
Err, I don't know where my device is from, but I can assume you it's a TG01, not the "A" one.
Here, the file is included on the file I've downloaded:
TG01WP_5005000176.enc
Ok, the phone is from USA, I guess it has a different software version updater.

The only thing i can see that is left now is to use the short pin method. Details are in the guide to flashing tut in the sickies. You will need to make sure the radio versions are the same first though.
Start\settings\system\about\version info. Where it says radio version is what you need to know. Mine is "5005.1600.05" so would be referred to as 1600 here. If you let me know what radio you have i will upload a ROM with the correct radio for you.
This may take me a little while though.
Radio version is 5001.0000.5319
Very different, heh?

I'll try and find a rom with that radio, for now though try renaming the tsw to .enc and try short pin.
I think some phones released to America have different radio hardware than UK phones. I'm not sure if this is the case for the TG01 though. I think we have a few American forum users. Maybe they could help if they are reading this?
Anyway, I really appreciate your help and support.

[Q] Is there a newbie's guide for this phone?

I understand there's a tips and tricks thread that explains things in more detail but how does somebody go from just getting the phone to installing, or even understanding, things like obsidian, onyx, morphing and learning what the basic functions of such programs are.
The question I currently have is concerning flashing custom roms. In the tips & tricks thread, it talks of froyo builds (ex: bionix & frankin-twiz). What is it exactly? From what I understand, it sounds like a mini os that you install onto your device which helps in applying different functions to it, which makes custom roms possible.
I'm currently trying to get http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845530 to work on my vibrant. Can anybody help a newbie out?

the link you posted is just to a theme.
to get the theme to work you'll need to be running obsidian first.
so lets see, the easiest way to explain the different versions 2.2, 2.1 1.6, 1.5 and so forth is this...
its pretty much like going from windows 95 to 98 to 2000 to xp to vista and so forth.
our vibrants come with android 2.1, 2.2 is the next version of the os to come out (basicaly like moving from vista to windows 7)
the different roms like obsidian and Macnut and such are just names that the developers gave their roms.
what happens is a developer starts out with a version of android (in the case of Macnut and Obsidian this is 2.2)
and then they add their own modified tweaks and such to it.
and so in the end they get Obsidian which is a modified 2.2
or Macnut which is also a modified 2.2
they differ a bit though as Obsidian is based almost totaly on a leaked version of 2.2 for the US vibrant, where Macnut is based alot on the 19000 version of 2.2 for the european phones.
so when choosing a rom just choose the base you want first: 2.1 or 2.2
then look through the tweaks on a few roms and read some of the thread for that rom untill you get a feel for what makes it unique
you can also just experiment by flashing a rom for a day or so and then switching to a new one untill you find one you like.
Morphing is a way to apply a theme to a rom, this does not generaly change functionality at all, it only changes apearance.
alot of themes are either morphs (you install them using metamorph, which is an app from the market)
or they also come in zip format (which are installed by flashing from recovery)
for the theme you posted you will need to flash obsidian, and then flash the zip for the theme afterwards.
have you rooted your device yet?
thats the place to start, if you need help just pm me or repost here and I'll do what I can.
also, there is a "newbie's guide":

lol true true
Before you even want to start with anything, you have to learn what 'rooting' your phone means.
Without root, you won't be able to do any of the above. You might be able to download the programs necessary, but you won't be able to use them.
For ex. Titanium Backup, ROM Manager, etc.
We use ROM Manager to install different ROMs on our phones.
Much to read, my young grasshopper.
OP, I made the Tips/Tricks sticky... would you PM be exactly what you think it lacks? I want to make sure it is applicable to everyone... I thought it was straight-forward, perhaps not.
my phone is rooted. So how do I go about flashing obsidian?
I thought roms were the same as themes? What's the difference?
And just to clarify I understand the tips and tricks thread is sort of the newbies guide but even then theres a lot of terminology that a new user wouldn't understand. I just wanted some basic information that would allow me to transition into the tips and tricks thread more easily.
I appreciate the responses so far
Have you download Rom Manager from the Market? If not, do so.
Then follow the instructions (in the sticky) to flash the recovery (it's the top of the list when you open Rom Manager).
Assuming you did that, you can reboot into recovery, make a backup of your system.. something you can always come back to (a timestamp of your system at that moment).
Download the ROM you want, put it on your internal memory (sdcard/....) NOT in a folder.
Go to Clockwork recovery, choose to insall a zip from sd card... select the name of the ROM and then click Yes to install it.
It will run it's course, then you can just reboot when done.
The first bootup will take a long time (10 minutes probably)... let it boot.... leave your phone alone for like 10 or so minutes after bootup (suggested by Team Whiskey, I never really do this).
It's that easy.
Think of a ROM as an OS... the developers take Froyo (2.2) or Eclair (2.1) and make a lot of tweaks, remove things, add things... basically anything to enhance the user experience.
THEMES are something you flash over a custom ROM... it can change the icons, graphics, notification bar, etc... they are cosmetic. You see in my signature I have Axura 2.0.3 (amazing rom and there is a newer version out) and then I have BlackFroyo (which is the theme) on top of the ROM to change the look of things. Axura has a steel looking notification bar, I much prefer black (hence the theme I chose).
The ONE thing that can be confusing... if you make a backup right now (you have stock eclair), if you flash a froyo rom... you would need to flash either the stock eclair kernel (the download link is also in the sticky) to restore your nandoid backup.... OR, you could just flash another ROM that has a kernel (most do) and you would be good to go too.
And addition to this is to make sure your phone is NOT hardware locked.
To test it:
1) Take out battery from the phone and put it back in again
2) The USB cable plugged into the computer (not in the phone yet)
3) Push and hold down both of the Volume buttons at the same time
4) Plug in USB cable and it should take you into the Download mode.
If it does you are good to go. Just read some about Odin and Stock Android
If it isn't you need to make sure to flash JI6 to your phone (also Stock) onto your phone using Stock Manager. That should fix your hardware locked. Go over the above steps to make sure that is the case.
At this point, I have rooted my device and downloaded rom manager.I believe I have backed up everything after following the directions and I do have the blackfroyo.zip on my sd card and for some reason it won't "go" (although I'm sure there's a step I am missing here, something with obsidian) so that wasn't much of a surprise.
Edit: I noticed I tried to use a theme on there and not the obsidian "OS" (idiot) when I tried the backup thing with rom manager. Where can I download the most recent version of obsidian and/or is axura an acceptable alternative?

Been working on updating the wiki. Please check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_SGH-T959#ROMs for the different ROMs currently available.
^^ both are solid. I prefer Auxura *no touchwiz*.... download it from the development section. Place in on the internal (sdcard/ ) and flash it, reboot... I would let the phone chill for awhile then reboot again.... THEN if you want, start messing with the theme. You can see from my signature you and I are similar.
to the OP, I started a noob friendly guide in the Q&A section. Please let me know exactly what you want in there.
Here is a video guide, its kinda old but the principles are the same.

I have been browsing around and reading on XDA since I got my G1 on release day. I have since upgraded to the MYT3G and now to the Vibrant. I have always used XDA as a source of information for rooting, etc. I don't post very often, but, I would like to throw props out to all the individuals in the thread, this is one of the few threads I have read on XDA that no one got flamed for being a "noob" and asking basic info, the information given was clear, accurate and very helpful. No one pointed to using the search function, everyone just gave good answers. AWESOME
I hope to see more threads like this in the future. Bravo and well done to all.
So I tried installing obsidian 5 and this is what happened. I first put the zip file on my sd card, I did all the necessary prerequisites (I think) using rom manager, flash recovery > vibrant yada yada yada and then pressed install rom from sd card and chose the obsidian zip file. Then the phone starts backing itself up and it finally reaches a point where it says (E: Can't open/sdcard/sd/obsidian_v5_beta.zip (no such file or directory) Installation aborted.
I then try to navigate to the file from the menu but whenever I click the sd file, it just exits, I think it says that no zip file is found or something but when I boot it up normally afterwards, the file is still there.
But the file is within the sd file . . . what am I doing wrong? I tried to fix permissions thinking it was that but no luck.
You probably need to move to the rom to the internal sd card. I thought you're able to add it to the external with the recent update but perhaps not

the rom IS on the sd card, unless you mean the memory on the actual phone itself
ROMs go on the root of the internal memory (no folder)... drop it in sdcard/
Also, this was mentioned in Post 8, and in team whiskeys install guide. Please pay attention to details.
oh okay, this whole time I've been thinkin the sd card folder was the root folder. Well I have finally put obsidian with success and now I'm having a difficult time implementing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845530. I have downloaded the zip file but I don't understand what "flash it through clockwork recovery" means. It kinda sounds like I should use something in rom manager but I'm not sure, I have tried to reboot into recovery through rom manager with no luck.
I've also tried using metamorph but when i choose the blackfroyo.zip file, it says that the file is invalid and that the theme control file could be missing. Am I doing something wrong here as well?
Thanks for all your help so far, I really appreciate you taking time out of your busy life to help an individual with (what may be to you) simple problems

From where you are now. Make sure the zip file is in the internal sd card, Open rom manager go to install rom from sd card then choose the that file then click ok and CW will do its thing. Also this is only for Obsidian v4.2 and Auxura 2.05. Good luck! Also you should make a nandroid back up first just in case.

[Q] got stuck on unpacking zImage...

hi there!
I have a viewsonic n710 tablet ,it's a fake Nexus7,and it's only saled in chinese mainland,I have to say ,it sucks,hardware and software!
about hardware ,I only can do nothing,but the software ,because it's similar with nexus7 ,so I decided to do something on it!
now here comes my question:
I got stuck on unpacking zImage ,I used all the methods that learned from xda here ,but only repack_zImage works,but whatever version I used to unpack the zImage ,the result seems not right,the early version I used can extract some files in the zImage_unpacked folder but it prompted wrong message and quit ,the newest versiion (0.6) I used can also extract some files in that folder but the program keep displaying many increased numbers and never stop unless you pressed "ctrl+c" to quit it forcely ,so I think the files maybe not right either!!!
in the first place ,I think the tools I used to unpack is not compatible with my n710 zImage,so I searched at least 3 different to unpack my kernal,
unpack ,unpack-initramfs,repack_zImage, the former 2 tools even can not extract anything from zImage ,only extract a folder named initramfs_root,only repack_zImage did something but seems not right!!
so I tried such ways to unpack nexus7 zImage for proving ,but it surprised to me that it can not unpack nexus7 either!!
I am confused now,I have been searching solution to solve this problem for two days,but a little achievment I got!!!
the only way I can do now to ask such question at here,I am sure that some people can extract right files from zImage ,(because they even can do an custom kernal for nexus7,:good:I adore them so much,)so will someone tell me how to unpack right files from zImage???or did I miss any important things for unpacking ,I am a green hand on linux system.,so I might make many silly mistakes on operation
!!
thank you very much in advance!!any suggestion and hint also will be appericated!!
Just because it might look/seem like a n7, its not one. Its different so our kernels wont work
Kernels aew very specific so they need to be made for the device because they have different hardware

Viewsonic N710
Hi There
I agree with you, i bought the same Tablet and the prior Incident is that you can not install the Google Playstore. Contacting the "Customer" Support is useless cause you always have a different employee who answers emails or is on the Chat Line. I asked them now for about 6 Times to give me a RMA Number and the Return Adress and it they do not want to understand.
The Tablet itself seems to have a good Hardware, Sygic runs very fast and stable, i also installed some Games and they are very solvent.
Dolphin HD didn't runs for the First Installation but now also runs stable and fast.
There is an Instruction on Tabletrepublic but it didn't work for me. I was able to install the ADB Driver and can also run it from the DOS Box. I was not able to Root the Tablet which is necessary to get Google Playstore to Run.
Does anybody else has rooted this Device and can explain how he did it...?
Thanks
Michael

I asked them now for about 6 Times to give me a RMA Number and the Return Adress and it they do not want to understand.
The Tablet itself seems to have a good Hardware, Sygic runs very fast and stable, i also installed some Games and they are very solvent.
Dolphin HD didn't runs for the First Installation but now also runs stable and fast.
There is an Instruction on Tabletrepublic but it didn't work for me. I was able to install the ADB Driver and can also run it from the DOS Box. I was not able to Root the Tablet which is necessary to get Google Playstore to Run.
Does anybody else has rooted this Device and can explain how he did it...?
Thanks
Michael

To root N710 is not a big deal any more!you can flash cwm recovery to help you ,I released cwm for N710 at Tabletrepublic,so just download the right version recovery for your tablet ,please aware that 1.01-1.05,1.07,they don't use the same cwm recovery!
after fflash recovery ,run into cwm recovery ,and flash superuser.zip just like nexus 7 does!
of course you can also flash the gapps.zip to get google service serial and what not !
good luck to you if you tackle it!

[SEARCH] working COMBINATION_FA70_G950FXXU5ASF1/FIX file. will it work on U5DSFB_DBT?

Hi,
got a friends SM-G950F. Its on G950FXXU5DSFB_DBT.
Tried to flash COMBINATION_FA70_G950FXXU5ASF1 via Odin. On the phone i get: only officaily released binaries are allowed
Saw here and here that it seems there is a COMBINATION_FA70_G950FXXU5ASF1_FIX file available, just dont be able to download it cause i only find dl on liveon and seems impossible to activate the free account to download the file.
so my 2 question:
1. will this file (G950FXXU5ASF1/_fix) generally work on G950FXXU5DSFB_DBT? as im a OnePlus guy i dont exactly know all parameters in the samsung naming convention. seems first comes model, then BL version. Thought rest would be language stuff wich wouldnt be important (for me) for combination use.
2. someone got this file or one combination file which should work on the version i got here?
thx for any help!
noe one can help or at least point me in the right direction?!
