Original german O2 XDA Orbit 2 ROM

Can someone post the Original german O2 XDA Orbit 2 ROM please?
Thanks very much!

Oh, I'd like to have it too. I hate it, but it's neccessary if you send the device for repairment Forgot to dump mine before flashing

I could dump if I knew how. The guide in the wikipedia contains some broken links...
So not all of the apps needed are available there.

A related question: if you want reclaim the warranty, do they accept the Hard SPL changes (after reverting the ROM)?

Well, I have sent devices 2 times to O2 for repair (XDA Mini S and XDA Neo). Both times they sent me new ones (the best option ). And I had flashed them both with non-official ROMs, then flashed the original German one before sending. I'm not sure though whether I'd done Hard SPL changes - I'm not very much into it - I just followed some guides back then

So could someone please give me a setp by step guide, how to dump my O2 rom?
Thanks!

Dump
I dumped according to instructions but I don't really know what to do with the .raw files. Anyway, hope this helps:

Ist nicht schwierig, nur die Anweisungen durchlesen und befolgen
Its not hard at all, just follow the instuctions given in the WIKI.
I compiled my own backup ROM out of a ROM dump I made before flashing HardSPL and the WWE ROM. Just in case, you never know

It did not work with mine.
So did you dump the German O2 Orbit 2 ROM?
Can you post it somewhere please?

Jap, the WIKI-ELF-ROM-Dump entry.
The link to the toolset is broken, but google knows everything
I extracted all the RAW files, treated them according to the WIKI and the result in the end was a nice RUU_signed.nbh weighing 103'789kb. I'm uploading right now. Will post the link when done.

I dumped my ROM. I followed all instructions given in the ELF-ROM-DUMP WIKI. In the end I had a RUU_signed.nbh, 103'789KB in size, so around 101MB.
Unfortunately, while uploading, my notebook went to standby. I'll upload it again, it takes me 30 minutes. Stay tuned, I'll post the megaupload link in this thread.

Since this is an English forum, I'll answer in English.
Yes and no. You can decompile the ROM dump and this way you gain access to all the files in the ROM. If you can decompile the nbh file, I don't know... I'll see if I can find the fms_api.dll in my backup files.
Edit: RAR attached

[Q] From Android back 2 WinMobile?

Hi there,
I want to make first steps in Android on my HTC HD2, but I´m unsure to do it.
The Problem is - I have absolutely no practice on Android and need to switch back to WinMobile if I don´t like AndroidOS...
Is there a way to switch back in case of wurst case?
Sorry for that bad english, but schooltime was a long, long time ago...
Update:
I thought, android replaces WinMob... Am I right? some threads made me unsure..
Or will Android simply running in a VM on WinMob?
Thanks for help
Patrick

Hi Patrick,
Let me try to answer that one before someone hits you that you have to start reading!
There is absolutely no problem to test this out!
All that happens is that you start Android from WinMobile so Winmobile will stay on your HD2.
You have to 'install' Android on your SD-card. I placed 'install' between ' ' because you just copy the files on the card and it works like that!
If I was you I would get a clean SD-card and copy the Android build on it.
Just make sure that you have a folder called Android with files called Zimage etc copied in that folder. Copy the 1GB data.img file also in that Android folder (makes 1st start faster).
So now that you have done that just maybe reboot your HD2.
Go to your speicherkarte and VERY important !! click first CLRCAD.exe. It will do nothing but it is needed. Then you can press haret.exe which will start Android.
The first time it can take minutes.
Ok now go and enjoy Android and use the search button to look for answers and problems.

OK, Thanks...
I´ve started reading a lot, but it was still too much for me...
All I needed to know was answered by you in 20 words, I hoped to become an answer like this...
thanks a lot

Happy android, bro
try the angry bird and guns&glory, the phone will glue on your hand whole week XD

Android ersetzt WM nicht, es wird einfach nur von WM aus von der SD-Karte gestartet. Wenn du dein HD2 wieder neustartest wird WM wieder gestartet
Wenn dir Android nicht mehr gefällt (was ich bezweifle) schmeißte es einfach von der SD Karte runter und gut ist

good form
nice to see a noob question not being flamed, good form lukesan

needed steps to port Gingerbread to i9000

Hi!
First, i want to indroduce myself. Im a software developer form germany. I own an i9000 and i want to port gingerbread to it.
I dont know if some people here ware working in it, but if we dont collect our knowledge we will get to nowhere.
So i already worked on a android port to a windows device (meizu m8) so i think i have basic knowledge on how this should go.
So here are the steps i would go, and i already starting uop a bit:
1) We need to get a 2.6.34 kernel running on the device. With our ROM.
This includes: Here are proble which already compiled kernels. Who does this work with the drivers? Are there .config files from the i9000 kernel?
We should DL the nexus S kernel sources from android git (they are there) and give it a shot. Just compile and install a 2.6.34 kernel which should be configured as near as pssible to the i9000 kernel. If we get such a kernel to run with our phonr we are nearly there.
2) if we get such a kernel, we can just DL/compile gingerbread. Then we create an update.zip file from the generated img files. We would need to collect the config scripts from out froyo and put them into this rom too.
3) let it update and see. For me, this sounds not very hard. The hardest part is the driver part, but as there are people here, which supply compiled kernels, they
a) have the driver sources, if they are build in
or b) the drives are modules, and so we hopefully should be able to use them on a 2.6.34 kernel too.
So the first thing we would need:
Are there any people out there which know about compiling kernels etc, which compiled/hacked a kernel for galaxy already. If so, please post here about the details, drivers config etc.
c'mon guys, we can do this, this isnt that hard.
greets

I suggest you to come to NSdev at irc.freenode.net
Lot's of developers there ready to help you, including supercurio

http://www.emoiz.com/samsung-galaxy-s-to-get-android-2-3-gingerbread-in-february-2011
read this

Hum... i dont know if i can trust what samsung says... it took nearly the complete lifecycle of froyo until they brought it to the i9000...
If they need this long to to this small port, i think we will get it in summer, just with 3.0....
Lets see and hope, but i think its not that hard to bring gingerbread to the i9000.
See android runs on linux. you can boot a normal linux system, and then start android after this. i think if we get a 34 kernel to run (thats the ginger kernel) with our drivers, we can surly compile gingerbread and create a update.zip out of this.
The main problem here (like we had it with porting android on the m8) it the driver problem. U need the hardware drivers for anything to use it. But as we already have a 2.6.32 kernel and we could inspect it how this is compiled, and we have the nexus s sources (which is in fact nearly the same phone), and we have people here who manage to compile running kernel for the i9000 i sthink we can do this.
The main info i need is if those self compiled kernel use the drivers as modules or if they are compiled into the kernel.
To be precise: The baseband/modemdriver is the main problem as for such devices its very hard to get open source drivers. For all the other things, like bt network display and sound there are surly drivers avaliable.
Anyway, i will start and see how far we come and see who is faster if samsung brings a ginger in short time, its not that bad either, then we know how to port 3.0 when it comes
greets

^Karlo hope you will find a way to get gingerbread(vanillastyle) to work on the sgs.
Mach weiter so, werde diesen Thread auf jeden Fall im Auge behalten. Boah ich wünschte, ich könnte programmieren und würde mich besser auskennen mit der Materie. Dann wären wir schon mal zu zweit ^^
cheers mate

i'm really looking forward to this although i will get a new phone by march
ich freu mich echt auf das was mit dem sgs hier erreicht werden wird viele neue tolle ideen
und ein clean android ist der erste weg zu was ganz grossem

A Dream Team wish list
In my opinion this would be a perfect team to bring AOSP gingerbread port to sgs.
supercurio experienced in kernel coding - proven NS root, voodoo etc.
Aery aka Codeworkx experienced in all areas - proven dev works on CM6.1 port
Coolya Great experienced in all areas - proven dev works on CM6.1 port
KarloRanseier - unproven jet but qualified by the statement from the first post and with a good will.
With those guys working together a 2.3 would be ready in a week. I hope my wish list will come true for the holidays

oppssss
probably february-2012
nexus ( google ) + 1 year = sam
and ... but sales ...

I just DLed the kernel sources from the nexus s (these are the android git samsung sources) and the opensource package from samsung OS center. Now we need to compare them, to find out which parts ( machine init for s5pcX and mainly drivers) are different. thats a messy work but nohting really hard.
Then i think it should be possible to port most of the changes from galaxy kernel to nexus s kernel (i think there wont be that much changes...).
then compile one and give it a shot.
I will see what happens
will try it tomorrow and then i will show up in irc and hear what the others have to say.

'
dont need to port the kernel at all. focus on the rom instead. gingerbread will run fine on 2.6.32

and btw. sgs uses some properitery drivers wich we dont got sources for. so it cant even be ported,like onenand,rfs etc.
with out them /dev/block/stl* wont even exist..

You are right with that...
BUT if no android phone in the world has rfs, i think that android dont need rfs. Thats just a bullshitish samsung development. So if we just use a stock android,
we would get rid of rfs and just use yffs like every android in the world does. there is no need for us tu use rfs (besides of some configs which surly can configed back to original)
And a onenand driver is nearly sure gettable in opensource as there are not soo many onenand ctrls but very much devices which use them.
But oki i then will start to get gignerbread sources and have a look at this.
PS: in m8 world, we did it like that: Created a root image which was mounted at startup to /data and stuff. This way we could hold this image on sd card. i think it should be possible to do the same with a gingerbread img to give it a short try and tinker with it

[FYI] German Samsung Support announced 2.3.4 for I9000HKDDBT

Hi All, just for your information:
On the German Samsung website i found the FAQ item [19123] which says that Gingerbread is coming to Germany on 06.06.2011
So I start a chat with a support guy and asked for the missing update. His answers are:
Cause of some problems the Update is deleayed
They work hard on it to relase the update within the next few days
And they will release Gingerbread 2.3.4!!!
I can't wait to see if this is true!

I hope so... 2.3.4 would be fine.

I apologize for my German post, too!
You can reach the FAQ Item by the following steps:
Visit Samsung[dot]de
Click Support (upper right corner)
Click FAQ
Search for "Gingerbread"

this is what i was told from samsung:
"Es wird kein deutsches Update der Version 2.3.3 geben. Die Version die zum Update angeboten wird, wird 2.3.4 sein.
Einen definitiven Termin kann ich Ihnen nicht nennen. Meiner Meinung nach wird es in den nächsten Tagen für freie Geräte soweit sein."
NICE!!!

Well, i heard the same a few minutes ago from the support. Maybe without the battery drain bug by default

AWESOME!! Can't wait to use odin

faq is telling about 2.3 not 2.3.4 in particular and i was unable to confirm this revelation in two languages samsung call centers =)
so my guess someone made a joke on the line there - no wonder it is hot as hell ;d
but ofc i would realy like that it was no joke!

Read the first post again. This info comes from support guy not faq page.
Usually employees get fired for false info or embarrasing moments.

lol read my post again =)

i called two call centers and they did not confirmed that
as well as polish samsung twitter something like two weeks ago but that was question regarding polish version only... but still
you call and tell us

Were those 2 centres aware of 06.06 date mentioned in faq?

it is 08.06 already
waiting patiently how this will develop

One more quote:
[15:43:20] Chikess:
ich habe gehört, dass anstelle von 2.3.3, 2.3.4 direkt in deutschland ausgerollt werden soll, stimmt diese aussage?
[15:48:41] Ralf Bender, Kundenberater Mobiltelefone:
Ja, das stimmt. In Deutschland wird es nur die neue Version 2.3.4. geben.

In english:
me:
i heard that instead of 2.3.3, 2.3.4 would be rolled out in germany, is that right?
samsung: yes, thats true. In germany only the new 2.3.4 will be available.

I know it is 8th already. But the question is did they know about the date. If they had no idea, then of course they say no to you.

maybe thats some new inside decision, as i said my info is about two weeks old
on the other hand after releasing test version of 2.3.4 for such a crapphone as galaxy mini who knows what will follow next
on one more hand why not release latest update to sgs2 first (it brings talk with video for example) so why not sgs2? maybe for test on earlier model or maybe they are talkin bout #2 from begining ;]

maybe because the sgs2 is more in the child age rather than the sgs, lets hope, that the 2.3.4 update would that right as we wanted it - and please no tw4 wishes

Gud news. No reason to use cm7 2.3.4 then

It would be a create idea, but first we need more info on the inner workings of the pine. This device desperately needs the attention of an active developer. We have root, on a device running vanilla 4.1.2, using hardware available on many other devices, so I'm thinking it could be possible to plug in drivers

Could not you take a Custom Rome of a mobile phone with similar hardware, and install this on the Neptune Pine?
Könnte man nicht ein Custom Rom eines Handys mit ähnlicher Hardware nehmen, und dieses auf die Neptune Pine installieren?
