if u read back from i dunno the 50th page or so on this thread, its like a mini documentary of my first ever attempt at flashing..hahahah

im currently on Simply Galaxy ROM 2.4 and may update to 2.5 later this weekend
IMO, flashing isnt really that hard..u've just gotta suck it in and jump off the bridge! hahaha

another newbie question from me. is that entering recovery mode have to shut off the phone first ? because i watched 1 of the youtube link, the fella press the 3 buttons without shut down the phone.

yeap..have to shut off phone..wait 30 seconds and then press the 3 buttons
if there are any other way, then i dont know. hahaha
im just a newbie myself =D

Any have tried Simply2.5 or ultimate.... hows the performance.... thinking of flashing either one... currently dloading both rom....

Might be my last flash before GBread...

Call Meter NG.

If I'm not mistaken if you install a rom manager you could have the option to enter recovery mode. Do correct me if I'm wrong

And to the question of turning off data a few pages back:

Turning off Data Network Mode will also disable MMS sending/receiving. Best is to nuke the Digi Internet APN and leave the Digi MMS APN on.

Usually application, including live wallpaper, are distributed in .apk container. You would just have to drop the .apk and run it from the phone. Again, usually we don't drop any .apk into the device directly. We just use Google Market to get anything we want. It's an app which gets app.

Anyway, if you're going to get SGS SL, that is GT-i9003, a different model. You may also participate here: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=40555837

Enter recovery mode, then:
1. If you're on stock ROM/kernel, clear Cache partition
2. If you're on custom ROM/kernel which has CWM recovery, clear Dalvik cache.

Try that before resorting to reflash.

As an experienced 3 button presser(LOL), I can get into recovery/download mode without shutting off the device. However, it isn't recommended as such procedure skips shutdown procedure, which may result in file corruption. Same goes for those who use app or terminal emulator (su then reboot recovery) to get into recovery mode, it does cause dirty writes, hence not recommended.

never go into the recovery mode WITHOUT SHUTTING OFF or WITHOUT EXTENDED POWER MENU.. if you use the one from extended power menu, it's totally safe as it shuts down your phone before booting into the recovery menu

if you use sgs tools or etc to boot into the recovery menu, you'll MOST LIKELY GET A DATA CORRUPTION

If u freeze an app, u cannot run it. The app is still there, but its more like being blocked and cannot be used. To use it back, unfreeze it. Side effect? Nothing i can think of..

i have taken the phone, but i unable to access recovery mode.

There are two modes in SGS. Recovery mode and download mode. Both using three button combo, the only different is the vol button.

You should able to go into recovery mode, only download mode (in some batches) is disabled from factory (but can activate again). Please read the first page to get more info.

yes. press

upvolume home button power button

saw samsung words then release all the buttons


is it correct ?

Press vol up + home button + power -- recovery mode.
Press vol down + home button + power -- download mode --> this is more important if you wanted to venture into flashing custom ROM.

i cant enter both mode
after i release all the button, it continue boot up as usual.

That is weird, you should at least have recovery menu. It is a bit tricky.

When I got my sgs, i did not have the download mode.

When you have 3 button recovery disabled phone, you won't be able to enter both mode. That's what I experienced with my phone, until I flashed the bootloader update

Sorry for the misinformation... actually mine also did not have both. Confused already...
