Hi all,
Gonna install Artemis Touch 2.1 this evening hopefully... after been stuck with the WM5 02 provide.
I know I need to use the USPL to flash it, and then install the rom, but I was wondering is there anything else I need to do before I do it, I like bricks but not expensive ones . I want to back up contacts; sms, email & that whole 9 yards, will PIM Backup do that job? from what I read in other threads I think thats the one I need but I'm a noob at this, also settings like the 02 sms; gprs & mms, will they also back up, or do you recommend I write them down first?
think thats it, soz for the questions but total noob who doesnt understand half the things you guys talk about right here
any help much appreicated...

ok sit back and enjoy the ride
1. install SPB backup, great tool, just do a search on google for it.
that will back up everything for you.
2. run USPL and wait for it to finish.
3. the phone reboots, look for UPL and make sure the last digit is a 0, its something like upl=1.11.0000.
once your here, you can flash any rom you want.
good luck and if you get problems ask for help.
thanks neilhhardy;
1 quick question (ok 3 )
firstly; i guess i dont use the full backup option in spb backup, im guessing i want custom back?
secondly; how long does the whole process take?
thirdly; will the unofficial roms make the orbit any slower?
soz again for all the questions & thanks for the help!

ok number 1, i always use the full backup and get a copy on the PC too ( just incase your sd card crashes out.
go and get a coffee relax a little and its done ( +/- 15 mins)
nope, actually there faster and better, Tom B&B 4.2 is running perfectly lots of nice features, Also Mesche's Roms are cool.
there the only 2 ive been playing around with.
if i were you and the first time flashing a new Rom, go with Mesche's Vanila rom 2, nice Rom with not so much software installed and also very very fast.
hope this helps.
thanks for all the advice neilhhardy, im now touch 2.1 yay
question though; is there anyway to add a wifi icon of somekind, to the quick launch bar at bottom of the screen? i dont like clicking the 'G' up top then selecting WiFi that way

yes no probem, if you have battery status installed, you can choose to add on a tray bar, then you can have wifi icon, bluetooth icon and what ever else you want.
Just wondering if someone could clarify about this model over the rest. Am I limited to rom's just made for the M model then? or do the normal roms I see like the cm7 ones in the development section of this model work on the m model?
Check this out. It might of some help to you.

Hi I have the "m" model as well and I haven't had much luck with the majority of roms made for the euro version of our phone. Darkshado had made a ROM called ArpegGioMod ROM that is made for the m series and works quite well. I use his ROM and I'm quite happy with it versus the stock ROM.
I flashed cyanogenmod 7.1 on my phone using Odin and by leaving out the phone package which seemed to work pretty well, but after a day my phone could not connect to the network to make phone calls or use 3g so I flashed back.
Let me know how it works for you. Thanks.

I have the s5660m as well and I've been using cyanogenmod 7.2 rc0 build4 since it came out. Everything works except gps.
I also have the s5660m , but it is unlocked. I am able to install any firmware, once is it a GIO rom. Go to ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1368587 It has a program to unlock your phone and also some other samsungs. Try it out.
I have an s5660m and I can download CM7 and CM9
I also have an unlocked and rooted 5660M. Has anyone been able to successfully install ClockWordMod recovery on the M? If so, please post a short how to.
Thanks

Gio s5560m Stuck data mode deactivated.
Hello all,
I bought a Gio M about a month ago good phone and happy so far. Problem I've had is 3g is OFF ---> power button- Phone Options menu - Network Data mode is deactivated. Push to turn ON and stays deactivated. Go into system, network, and yes data packets is checked on.
Phone is stock no tweaks no extras, did a clear cache and reset phone to OE spent 2 hours with tech support on Virgin canada and Samsung. Virgin blames phone, Samsung Blames virgin 3g network.
My question is could the phone have a bad firmware flash from factory it came with 2.3.4
I am going to go back to Best buy next weekend and see if I can test with another gio. If 3g works on test unit then I'll send this one in for repairs I guess.
Any other suggestions?
Did you try another Virgin SIM? That's one thing I'd look into.
Also if you're in the Montreal area or in the GTA (I'm not sure where else) there are Samsung Service Centres you could take this to.
Show up in person and have them diagnose the problem. You might even be able to wait while they work on it if you have a bit of spare time.
2.3.4 is the proper version number for the stock ROM on the 5660M. No updates so far.
Gio s5560m no 3g
Have not tried another virgin sim. I do have a spare that came with the phone spose I could try it although its sealed up in the packaging still.
Live in northern Alberta and the nearest city with virgin phone sales is 2hrs away hence the wait to get fixed. Surprise surprise Samsung did not phone me back today like they said they would either.
Found one other post on here of a fellow in Norway with no 3g can't enable or disable but no answers on his post to the problem. I'll wait till the weekend and go to the city and see if Bestbuy has an activated sim they can put in and try.
Thanks for the help and I will update when I get it figured out.
i had the same connection problems, try going back to your stock ROM and take note of your APN settings, once you flash back to CM you'll notice the rom made several changes!
changing the APN settings back to stock, fixed any connection issues i had
hope i helped! (i'm using CM7.2 RC1 B1 KANG on my BELL 5660M)
s550m 3g
Problem is I am using the stock rom, the rom that came with the phone is the one giving the problems. Sending the phone back for "repairs" and we will see what comes of it.
I'll keep you all updated.

I'm new here and I tried to read all the information to get a good idea around flashing the S5660M. I also have the bell version.
I'm going to put down the steps, if anybody can give me pointers or correct any mistakes. That'd be great, I want to put CM7.1 or 7.2, whichever one is stable enough for all functionality to work. Speed is not an issue as I am giving this phone to my grandpa who needs a chinese language display system which Samsung didn't include in the original ROM.
1. Root phone
2. Install ClockworkMod Recovery
3. Reboot into recovery mode, make backup using Nandroid? I heard there's other tools that can be used. I'd like to backup the original ROM.
4. Download the desired CM from recovery mode onto SD card
5. Delete cache and wipe data
6. Choose the new ROM to be flashed and wait
I think that's the general idea, is there any key steps I am missing?
Sorry again for asking but I want to make sure I got the correct steps for S5660M.

You are right. But remember after you flash CM7, then install gapps.zip wich can be found in cm7 thread, so you have google apps, then your done.

I read some more stuff yesterday(a lot of variance )
Some people mentioned titanium backup. Which one is better? nandroid or titanium backup to save up the original ROM?
Also, is Universal_GB_ROOT_v2.zip the best/safe way to root a S5660M?

Yes, the gb_root.zip or superoneclick.
Superoneclick can be downloaded from shortfuse.org
Make sure you have the usb drivers, usb debugging on.
Then connect your phone via usb, wait for it to connect and press root, then your done

Hi All,
Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask these questions. Please let me know if I should move the thread.
Backstory: I bought an unlocked S3 off of craigslist last weekend. I bought a SIM card adapter so my nano-sim from my iPhone 5 will work in the S3. I really love the phone, minus a few issues. I can't get LTE to work, and the battery seems to be pretty bad as it's constantly searching and dropping my 3g cell signal.
It's running Android 4.2.2 via Cyanogenmod. All I know is that this is not the standard Touchwiz OS that ships with the S3 from samsung, and is a variant of the standard 4.2.2 OS from Google.
Questions:
1. Is my lack of LTE due to the OS? Someone recommended to me that I should put the phone back to the stock Touchwiz OS (via Mobile Odin), which would enable the LTE. Think that's the case? Or is this an issue with my Nano SIM and AT&T account?
2. Using this Cyanogen 4.2.2, I don't get any onscreen notifications when I get a text, email or calendar alert. My friends with stock S3's and Notes all get these types of notifications. Am I missing something with Cyanogen 4.2.2 or should I try to go back to Touchwiz?
3. If I were to go back to touchwiz, I was told I could just download it onto my S3 sim card and install/load it via Mobile Odin. Is this the case? This is my first time working with Android phones, so it's all greek to me for now. If I switch to stock Touchwiz, will I lose all of my aps and configurations and have to re-set it up? What other cool things would I be losing?
I really do love this phone and would love to stick with it over my iPhone 5. The lack of LTE, good battery life (probably can be improved with tweaks) and onscreen notifications are making it tough for me to make this my daily driver.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!
what is the model number of your device? i747, i9300, etc.
without getting too technical at the moment, you're running a nightly release (not always stable) of an operating system. it was probably flashed on your device half-a** and you are experiencing bugs because of these 2 things. the thing about buying a used phone that is rooted running a custom rom is, you dont have a clue about its history. how things were run/setup/installed, etc. not a deal breaker, as i bought mine used, just have to consider starting over with it from square A in order to get and keep it running properly.
before you start changing/flashing anything, i would browse the forum and begin reading up. the more you know, the smoother and safer everything will go for you

Model # is SGH-i747.
CyanogenMod version: 10.1-20130304-NIGHTLY-d2ATT
Build date: 3/4 2013
So the build is slightly out of date. Any recommendations on what I should do? Download the latest version? Buy MobilOdin and re-install touchwiz?
Thanks!

in my opinion, i would start over. thats just me, though. you might not want to download and setup everything again, though. if you do opt to reset, decide if you want to continue using a custom ROM or stock Samsung Touchwiz. in either case, you wont need to purchase anything. do you have a PC?

It's an AT&T S3 on AT&T (using my iphone 5 nanosim). I guess I didnt need to buy it unlocked, but that's what I got off of craigslist. I did not get the unlock code from the seller, but I could probably still get that from them easily.

Read the thread in the development section about how to root without flashing trip counter. It tells you where to download Odin, what file to download and flash, and how to do it. Can get you back on a stock touchwiz ROM (+ root) in no time!

i think that returning to stock is the best way to get started on fixing these issues, whether you decide to stay on it or continue on to flashing something else.
here's the link to the stock firmware download: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390212717148635192
here's the link to Odin: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390275921635705049
here's a video i would recommend watching first: http://youtu.be/hqDW--uUX_8
Part 1: Backup and Wipe
Boot into recovery (vol up + home + power. release power button when device vibrates)
Go to backup and restore (use Volume Up / Down buttons in CWM).
Select Backup (power button in CWM).
After backup, go back to main screen and select Wipe data/factory reset
Select Wipe Cache
Select Advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache
Part 2: Install stock firmware and Wipe
Extract the root66_xxx_.tar.md5 from the .7z file you downloaded.
Use Odin, put phone into download mode [with phone off, hold vol. down + home + power ], connect to computer and open Odin.
once in odin click the PDA field and select the root66_xxx_.tar.md5 you downloaded.
Leave F. Reset Time checked.
click start
When you get a PASS, unplug the phone and pull the battery. wait a second, replace and immediately go into recovery (vol up + home + power. release the power button at vibrate)
Select wipe data and wipe cache again.
Reboot and you're good to go

I agree with the above poster, returning to stock using the described method should fix your problems then you can decide if you want to stay stock or flash another ROM.
I think you should stay stock for at least a few days to get a general sense of how things should work, that way when you flash custom ROMs you will have a better idea what is broken and what is just typical android behavior.

agreed. as a matter of fact, stay stock for a week. the first 48 hours will really be just letting the software settle in. dont judge battery performance based off those first 2 or 3 days. let it get up and running.
Check your APN see if they are correct

Hi all.
My first post here and a couple of questions.
Per instructions found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195283 , I was able to root my phone using TWRP and odin.
The phone works fine but many of the apps are missing (maps, youtube etc). I was able to download the maps 6.14 apk and install it, but the gps takes forever to lock now. Is there a s2 specific app that was somehow wiped out by the rooting process?
Also, the stock browser is set to full screen, but when typing in the address, the address bars flickers on and off and I can only see the google search suggestions untill I press the keyboard again. Im using stock samsung keyboard.
Don't know if it's normal, but the phone doesn't pull my contacs from the sim card before or after root. I used to have HTC Mytouch from T-mobile and the names and phone numbers all came up as soon as I insterted the sim card into that phone when I bought it 2 years ago.
Thank you.
Sorry forgot to add.
The phone is ( was?) stock JB 4.1.2 (t-mobile) and the only thing I did was root it.
The only thing I can think of is to re flash the stock ROM in Odin. Then redo installing recovery. I followed roughly the path to root you described and didn't have any problems.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Do you know if the settings and data will be wiped out if I try to reinstall ? I dont have a spare phone I would hate to lose the apps and the texts and etc.
Well, if you have twrp, install it first and make a backup that INCLUDES the preload partition as well as data, system, cache, etc. Then you don't need to worry. But odining stock job over stock job should be harmless since it won't overwrite data -- just be sure repartition isn't checked
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Well, unrooted, rerooted, wiped clean, reinstalled stock 4.1.2 and nothing ...
The gps is crap with all the .conf files tried. And no matter what, once I install SU , the damn apps disappear after reboot. Plus considering that it's a 1.5mhz processor, its slower than my old HTS 1.2mhz Mytouch and even 1mhz ZTE warp. Probably gonna send it back. Too bad, since I like the screen a lot.
You're missing apps can be redownloaded from the play store. As for your GPS problem, download and follow the instructions to install AGPS from this thread and you should be fine.

Thanks , but I already tried that.
As for the apps, it's really not a big deals, but the fact that the SU app makes them disappear is a bit of a concern. , plus the fact that gps works like crap even after the patch and several new gps.conf files , make this phone an overpriced and kinda overhyped toy. Frankly one shouldnt be looking at patches and fixes on a phone this "good". If an old ZTE and Htc work without a hitch, then this thing is about $150 too expensive for what it is.
And for the life of I cant understand why wouldnt sucksung put a damn led light on the case to alert the user of missed calls or texts instead of us having to resort to the nolite and such..
Thank you for all the help though).Thank you though for the help.

Make Sure you Flash it Correctly.. Since you have TWRP Flash other Rom of your preferences and then DO THE CORRECT Wipes!.

Appreciate the advice.
But Ive done that already. The gps ,when it does finally lock, takes forever. Regardless of the .conf files. And no matter what, after SU gets installed and the phones is restarted some apps are simply gone.
Instead of stock ROM I would give you the suggestion of trying out cyanogen mod since imo its actually much better everything wise over stock ROM
Give it a whirl and tell us what u think
See if the probs went away

Hi,
To do a factory reset: Switch off the tablet.
Then power it up by pressing simultaneously and holding : Volume up + Home + Power
When in Recovery mode move the cursor with the volume key and execute with the power key.
Select Factory reset and execute it.

Hi,
OK, the first thing to know is which device you have: Sm-P600/601/605 ??
Then to know which ROM is installed on the tablet ?
If you can go to setting : then scroll down to "About the phone" you should see the version of the ROM.
With that you go to sammobile
You put your device type and you will get all the stock ROM's
You click on the one you want and on the next windows you will have the URL to download and the way to install it.
To be able to download the ROM you have to register on this site but it's free of charge !!

Its a SM-P600,
Kernel Version: 3.4.39-1691324
Build Number: JSS15J.P600XXXUAMI8_LLK
I tried that site but canceled it cause it said it will take 15h to download the firmware.
You can try from HERE
But I am not sure it will be any faster.
Those ROM's are quite big > 1.xx Gb so if your internet connection is slow it's take time.

It seems to go a little bit faster today from sammobile. I have a 100/100 connection so it should go fast
Thanks for taking the time to help.

One more question, I can´t seem to set some kind of password for the lockscreen since the lock screen option is gone in some way. It says something about Knox but what is that?
Can i add some other app that handles the lock screen?
About Knox: it's some kind of security introduced by Samsung some months ago, a real pain in the back..
Have a look HERE (for example) for more details.
Yes you can install applications w/o problem.
Knox will only get involved when you start playing with the ROM's, Bootloader etc ..
Hi
Hello guys, I have an Galaxy S6 Edge Demo version, I want to know if I change the motherboard with another with GSM function, it will work fine ?
The digital finger print doesn't work, I have to change the button or how can I fix this ?
And another thing, in the background of display, you can barely notice a text, this : Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, this thing is from display or motherboard ? Because I want to know, if I change the motherboard, it will dissapear that text ?
Thank you.
I would like to remove the starting screen ''Live demo unit'' on SM-T800X tablet to the stock one, and after flashing I have got the demo pieces of text in the bottom of the screen.
I tried to re-partition the install with ODIN and used a PIT file but no changes. Anybody can help with this problem please ? Is there any solution to change the demo unit to look as a stock SM-T800 ?
Also if there any solution to change KNOX value to 0 would be great.
