@ BH_MAN, hey is it true you are getting close to porting over HTC Sense over to our Behold 2's! If this is so, then wow that makes me happy! What OS version would that be? Still 1.5? How close are you to doing this? Will it be easier to do this than to get a custom kernel so that we may run 2.1 Galaxy, or do they both need the custom kernel? Thank you so much!

I've Not touch Hero yet, but should be easy enough to Port, but!
Things like Wifi & Vibrate & maybe the Camera won't work.

Right now I'm not sure what will or wont work... Been Editing the Kernel & Optimizing the BH2 Stock no Twiz Rom.. I should have Both done today or tonight...

Likely will be Next week before I can even start on the Hero Port, but, I have High hopes for it.

 

[paul89]

sweet! that is awsome, I will install your optimized rom and kernel once your done. I've been on stock rom for a while now, and it seems the longer i use it the slower and bugger it gets lol. So im ready to try something new again!

Hmm Sense takes alot of memory. I dont think its that realistic on the galaxy, even with swap.

I wonder how this will run once its out tho...

That Looks Really Nice... I'll be keeping my eye on that

I'm running the "BH2 stock w/o twiz" now. I never got the update so I put that Rom on and went on vacation. I come back to find great progress, so thanks.
I have the Odin and the ADB setup...
Do I put the "Root_boot.tar" to the Boot Image and run as one package?

You run it as the PDA package... I would hold off though.. I'm updating the kernel edit to fix the SU issue of having to chmod 04755 at every boot so SU works for Rooted app's

 

[spinwizard]

no problem, I'll wait, thanks

LOL i was sleepy when i posted that. Of course Sense on Behold is totally plausible - not on the galaxy. Forgot which section i was posting in.

I was gonna say, the behold 2 has more ram than hero lol!

I'm going to Hold off updating the Kernel edit's until Nu11u5 get's his Odin Package Posted. So we can have the New Kernel with the New System as well.

you 100% positive it will work with his new kernel?

Should work fine.. I can edit the Kernel's Ramdisk, but I just couldn't get past the boot loop when trying to add the new kernel into the odin package I was using with Hex.

Perfect so now we have a 100% way to get a fully updated phone (kernel+system).
I dont know if other people have this problem, but with TouchWiz, or even your custom rom (no touchwiz(but still touchwiz settings)) I always have a problem with the phones clicking and buttons sounds turning back on if I put the phone in vibrate mode then back up to sound again. Every time they come back and I have to go into setting to turn them back off even though it says 0 for the sound level.

I hope that made sense, do you have suggestions for this, because it is really annoying. Plus I will loose my ringtone even though it shows it the current one, it will ring as the default ringtone??????????

you need to change the customer.xml in /MPS it's one of the file in that folder.

 

[paul89]

ok so how would I get to that file, and where is it stored? What do I need to do to change it? Thanks for your help, and I'm glade you knew the solution!

adb pull ( c:\new ex. of file location ) /system/MPS/customer.xml

Edit with note pad or any Word pad program.... It's cut and dry what you're looking at.

 

[paul89]

Here is the customer.xml file, do you see a problem with it?

nvm its on the post below.

once edited how do i put the correct one back on.

 

[paul89]

Here it is here lol, first time doing attachment here lol

 

[spinwizard]

I have Nu11u5's t939uvja3 from the odin files, they work great! Why didn't Samsung do that? Can I now odin the Root_boot.tar? And do i just change the PDA image? Does this update the uvja3 to no twiz, root and busybox?
