Can someone tell me why if after unrooting my phone while on 2.3.4 by deleting the SU file in the system\bin and system\xbin and deleting the superuser.apk. then updating to 2.3.6 do I still have superuser.apk still show up?
I used the tutorial panaphobic wrote earlier in the thread to go back to 2.3.4 to unroot and then updated back to 2.3.6, but still see superuser.apk. Can someone please help? What do I need to do?
Tried to put su and superuser.apk in it and remove the recovery shit before work but ran out of time. Here's the zip for ROMers, I will release a stock update when I get home that's pre-rooted
It will be flashed via CWM to update
Hey Everyone! Sorry to do a noob post here but I am dieing for this. I just picked out the absolute best mid range phone on the market less than 3 weeks ago and had the TS issue everyone has. Went to BB bought a boost phone and no TS issues. Made them send me another phone, took a week to get, same TS issue.
Difference between the sprint branded phone I have and the Boost phone is
Model Number SPH-M930 Sprint ----------- SPH-M930BST Boost
Baseband Ver. S:M930.02 x.EG30---------- S:M930.02 x.EG29
Build Number GINGERBREAD.EG30---------GINGERBREAD.EG29
Both have Kernel Version 2.6.35.7
I noticed the link above is going of off the boost phone and was wondering if anyone had input on using a boost rom on a sprint branded phone?
I honestly must say I am still confused on doing the flash, but I was able to root the boost I purchased on sale at BB (mainly for testing) with the one click root.
Very disappointing with the screen issue and the supposed fix breaking the wifi, but I honestly love this phone and is probably the only reason Samsung is able to get away with this stuff lol.
P.S. hoping to get the update non root and than one click root it, but hate waiting

If you are replying to me, let me check. I believe I had re-formatted the micro sd. Yeah I can be considered a noobie. Let me check and I'll let you know, thanks.

I used the tutorial panaphobic wrote earlier in the thread to go back to 2.3.4 to unroot and then updated back to 2.3.6, but still see superuser.apk. Can someone please help? What do I need to do?
thats just the installation file. delete it via pc in sd \downloads
thats just the installation file. delete it via pc in sd \downloads
so I used panaphobic tutorial earlier in this thread to restore back to stock 2.3.4 with no microsd in phone. After that I restored from recovery mode and I am still seeing the superuser in my apps. Should I root to delete all the su files and the superuser.apk? if so then what, I'm i free to restore then update?
ok. so I have went back to 2.3.4 via panaphobic tutorial and I keep getting this superuser.apk in my apps. Is that part of the system.tar by bads3ctor?
I currently am wondering if they fixed the wifi problem or not and if i should update?As of right meow i am running shevron rom have CWM and am rooted.I dont have net @ my house so i use foxfi all the time.Im wondering if i update will i still be able to use it?Or should i wait?

I am in the same net boat as you, the safe way to go about this is too wait and see... I will be testing 2.3.6 when I get the option to but I will be downloading odin and all files I will need before I try it. If you must try this, I suggest you do the same.

:dito:
I am not losing custom over an update that has also been fixed by Bobz kernel.
A Samsung tech called me back about the issue. He wanted to know more about what is going on with it. I told him everything I did and that I had to reflash it back to 2.3.4 to get the wifi working. I told him about the static IP setting fixed this issue for some people and that some people are also experiencing problems with GPS with the update. He told me to hang tough and they are working on a fix to the problem and that once they fix the problem, they will be pushing another update to the phones. If you updated to 2.3.6, use my instructions to reflash 2.3.4 back to your phone and wait until the new update is pushed to the phones. I am no longer getting notifications about the update on my phone for the past few days so when the new one gets pushed to the phone, I will try it out and let you guys know if it's been fixed or not. I received the first update around 2am on 5/9 when it was released so I believe I will also be one of the first ones to get it again. I'll let you guys know as soon as I have a working version of 2.3.6!

3. Once downloaded, run Odin and then put your phone in "download mode" by turning off your phone, waiting 30 seconds for it to completely shut down, and then by pressing and holding the camera button + volume down + power until it restarts into download mode. Press volume up to continue. Connect your phone to your computer.
***It should automatically update the drivers for your phone, if not you will need to manually locate the drivers online and install them. My computer did this for me automatically***
4. Once your phone is connected, and Odin is up and running you should see in the upper left side of Odin that it says "COM: #" and that's how you know it's connected. If that's not there, you didn't install the drivers properly.
5. Under the COM ports section, make sure that you have checked "One Package" "Reboot" & "Protect OPS" and nothing else and "Debug only" in UNCHECKED!
6. Then click "OPS" and select the Transform Ultra Odin OPS file you downloaded
7. Then click "One Package" on the bottom of the window and select one of the other 3 files you downloaded (recovery, kernel, or system). *Note: the system file is in a zip file, just unzip it and use the file inside for the system file*
8. Once it has finished uploading a file, it will reboot. Just power down your phone. Close out Odin and reopen it for each file you flash if it doesn't say "PASSED" above the COM Port you are using after you power down your phone.
9. Repeat steps 3-8 to reflash the recovery, kernel, and system images to your phone.
So, this has been tested on many phones and works?
I've done sorta the same thing for my prevail but this has different steps to it... I'm trying to fix my girlfriend's phone so I want to make sure it's ok. She doesn't care about rooting so I'm not worried about it.

Ok since panaphobic heard back from a tech should i follow his steps to fix my wifi or just wait till they push the next update and see if they fixed it, cuz im clueless when it comes to this kinda of stuff :/ also just today i restored my phone to factory settings cuz thats what i was suggested to do now when i try and reinstall my apps i get an error tellin me it wont download with (927) behind the message, any idea what that means and why im gettin that damn error??

9. Repeat steps 3-8 to reflash the recovery, kernel, and system images to your phone.
***You will now be back to stock version 2.3.4***
10. Once these have been done, download the original file in the first post by interdpth.
11. Rename the file to "update.zip" and place it on the root folder on your sd card (root meaning the base location on your sd card "sdcard/update.zip")
12. Power down your phone, wait 30 seconds, reboot into recovery mode by pressing and holding volume down + power and then releasing only the power button once it says "Samsung" on the screen. Connect your phone to your wall charger!
13. Using the volume up/down keys, highlight "apply update from /sdcard"
14. Press the power button to select it.
15. Allow the phone to update, it might hang at 20% for a while and then when it's done, it will reboot itself!
Once it reboots, let it sit for another minute and a pop up will appear saying "finalizing update" and then it will pop up saying "update complete" and you will be running 2.3.6 on your Transform Ultra!
You will notice some slight changes like the "Boost Zone" app and different live wallpapers, along the phone and ID buttons changing color. The touch screen works MUCH better and there are no more CIQ's on the phone.
Anyways, I hope this helps you all who don't want to wait for interdpth to get it working with root and CWM, although he should have it up and running tomorrow evening. I know a lot of you are impatient, like me.
Your guide was Great. It worked like a charm. Thank you.
I ran into a little hiccup, I was so eager to get my phone back to 2.3.4, that I didn't follow the post well enough to realize that this is for a Boost Mobile phone and not Sprint.
So, ya, now I have a Boost phone instead of Sprint. Any chance you could tell me which file dictates who the carrier is? And even more important, do you have a Sprint version of that file or know where I could get one?
Thank you again for the guide.
Update:
I found the files and another guide to get me back on a sprint image.
Thanks again for the work you did.

The message ur getting is due to google app crap being left behind after a factory reset...
Goto settings/applications/manage apps and go to each and every google app that is installed on ur phone and click clear data and clear cache it will fix this... i have had to do it once or twice on both my wife's and my TU

the above post is, i believe, a bit of overkill. go to applications/manage apps and click the ALL tab (default will be the downloaded tab) and go to google services framework and google play store and just clear the cache. no need to clear the data. this will take about 10 minutes before your play store is accessible again.

Not overkill, just thorough.. I kept getting the error even after just clearing the cache and data on playstore and framework... So I went through and cleared all of it! Clearing all of it made it work fine...
