welcome back! the leaked gingerbread looks alpha quality to me. You may want to try cyanogenmod7 or miui for 2.3

How big is the file? The stock rom for india downloaed from samfirmware also has 1 file only. Just put that single file to pda, leave the phone and csc empty

welcome to the thread! please read the first page for FAQs as your queries may have been answered. If not, just ask us. We are friendly bunch of people. Really!

Added on March 1, 2011, 5:35 pm2.2 official stock froyo for SEA region is in first post. But I recommend to go for custom rom like doc's or darkyy

Odd. I can download to the phone just fine.

I did. Two or three previous threads.

I know. Hehehhee

No need to flash stock rom. Follow unroot instructions in first page.

Nitr8 made one too. You guys can flash gingerbread rom. But I'm sure you all will go back to froyo after testing it.

I think it is a unified place where all of your downloads will go. Let's say that you have a download from stock browser and another one from xscope. Those two downloads from different browsers will go to this app for you to access.


I noticed that. But the method remains the same (deleting those three files). I will test that cwm zip file. If it doesn't work, I'll find one that does or I'll just make one.

In the mean time, you can use command kung-fu to unroot. I've posted it in a few threads before.

Added on March 2, 2011, 3:58 pm1. It is a leaked firmware. Legitimate one but IMO, an alpha quality, not beta. Few members here tested and gave quick reviews.
2. I am using simple galaxy rom. So far liking it because of beautiful honeycomb theme.
3. Temporarily I hope. Things will change when we get gingerbread sources from Samsung because this will speed up CM7 and Miui

Coolya and codworkx are both talented devs. They won't stop developing cm7. When Samsung releases the source, things will speed up a bit I think.

I like insanity rom but nitr8's approach is minimalism. So that will not appeal to everyone. IMO the leaked gingerbread is not worth the hassle. I'm sure you guys will go back to froyo.

In other news, I have successfully unrooted using a CWM zip file and re-rooted from recovery mode (using speedmod kernel to root). This will completely unroot your phone.

This is useful if z4root or superoneclick were unable to unroot your phone. I'll upload the CWM in a bit.

It not only looks pretty, but really fast and smooth too. I finally got a properly working gingerbread keyboard with haptic feedback with this rom. I've raised few points about the rom in his thread but the rom maker seems to ignore me

If don't have credit card, can use terminal emulator app


All those apps are available on android.

Better experience in what way? Besides having embedded flash.

Yup, flashing speedmod is the best. Can get 2e recovery and speedier phone. Kills two birds with one stone.

I don't know why that thread says unroot is for eclair only. I have looked into the zip file and it should work with froyo too. I have now only modified it a bit so that it'll will go one step further for even complete unroot by deleting /system/bin/su symlink as well. I've tested this yesterday. Unfortunately, got blackout so the file stuck in my desktop.

A. Unroot
1. Download the file  unroot.zip ( 160.1k ) Number of downloads: 272
and copy to your sdcard
2. Reboot into recovery mode
3. Select install zip from sdcard
4. Select choose zip from sdcard
5. Scroll down till you found the unroot.zip file.

B. Re-root
1. If you have speedmod kernel, go to the recovery mode
2. Select advanced SpeedMod ULK features
3. Select ROOT / Install Superuser
4. Select "Simple: Install busybox+su"
5. Reboot.

Your /system will be readonly by default. To make it readwrite, Click on rw button in RootExplorer or using terminal emulator,


or simply use z4root or superoneclick

Ipad2 has no magnetometer, no compass, degraded experience for using google maps and navigation. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Motorola has the xoom's bootloader unlocked because they want devs to make cool apps with it.

That's right. At least galaxy s has been very hacker-friendly.

Anyway, I've updated the first page. Added instructions for unrooting by CWM.

can use SMS Backup+ by Jan Berkel. Posted in first page.

be warned that ext2 has no journal like ext4. If your phone suddenly hangs and you pull out the battery, you will get data loss. However, damiangto claims his kernel users do not experience such problem.

About oc/uv. Is it stable for long period of time? What is your undervolt settings?

Yes, prevent backdoor.

It is perfectly safe. I'm not sure how the back-door works. But when that file is created, it prevents any other apps from creating the same file at that folder. Probably that's how the back-door works - by exploiting the missing /system/bin/profile file.
