i noticed a difference between before and after rooting

before : there will be a voice to read out who is the caller or sms sender, alarm also will announce the title of the alarm

after : no voice for call, sms and alarm

hermanchb, it is actually not that hard.

assuming u are on the latest KJ2 firmware, just flash the rooted kernel (ie MyGKernel) using Odin (without PIT file).
even if u are on the older firmware, u still can follow the guide from frontpage easily.

but of coz your binary counter will be increased. smile.gif

another rooted kernel : superatmos
*
im still a n00b in this matter although i have successfully rooted my phone on 2.3.5
so if i want to upgrade to 2.3.6, i have to upgrade 2.3.6 (ie KJ2) then flash MyGKernel?

with this 2.3.6, then i can flash the juffo rom?

if u are already rooted, u can flash directly juffo rom assuming u have the CWM.
but if u dont have CWM yet, flash mygkernel(or superatmos) using ktool, after this u will have CWM

then flash juffo rom 2.0 using CWM and again 2.1 using CWM (as juffo stated u must flash 2.0 first and then 2.1 or newer)

no need to upgrade to 2.3.6 because juffo rom is already 2.3.6 with rooted 2.3.5 kernel

am i supposed to get yellow triangle after flashing superatmos?

u can just extract swype apk and copy it to system/app... i am wondering why people want to use swype..maybe people who like to type "lengthy" sentence..lols

to avoid confusion, i type full words. so yes, swype is very useful

googling how to extract apk ...
