Good Afternoon, I'm somewhat of a noob and I have a question. I have been rooting my phones for a while and this is my first time attempting to install a custom ROM. I have a rooted Admire and wanted to know if the instructions for MPCS install assume that cwm is already installed or can I just follow the instructions as written? Thanks in advance.
Good Evening, I have another question. BTW thanks for the previous answer. I have installed this ROM by following the directions and it works beautifully (props to the poster). My question is about my contacts, apps, data etc. - Before installing I did a backup to Titanium Backup and also the backup suggested in the instructions. How do I recover the info that was erased by installing this ROM? Again thanks in advance for any answers.
First off, WOW! Very nice work! I have had my MPCS Admire over a year now, with Admiral Beast, Stock++, Monster 5.3, and a few others. This is the best ROM I've tried on this device, I love it. Thank You!
That being said...I have yet to get MMS working. Everything else is great, sends txt msgs np, but attach a pic & just says "sending" forever, never "sent". I have reflashed a couple times, each time wiping cache & formatting everything before flashing the ROM, then the MMS fix, then rebooting. I've also tried the APN restore a few times, nothin doin...
As I said the ROM itself is beeeautifull. Really. I haven't had any other issues besides MMS. I REALLY wanna keep this ROM, but I gotta have that MMS you know..
Is there anything else I can try before slinking (head low) back to Monster 5.3?? Please help if you can, willing to try whatever...Thanks.

The mms apk must not be taking.
Try extracting the mms apk from the fix zip and overwriting the one in /system/app/. Don't forget to change the permissions to rwrr (0644).
Good luck!

Have no clue. If you're using 5027 and are following the instructions to the letter than it should be installing fine m8. Anyone else have this issue?
I have install this rom on the admire running the Admire Update from samsung 2.3.6 andwhen i hit the power button to boot into recovery it turns off but it turn on to a screen saying Restomode, Ramdump. Im using cwm 5.0.2.8 and the oc version of oa.

Messed up, came from a HTC MyTouch 4G and would always have to wipe cache partition and data so I figured it was the same here. I did this after I made the backup though which is what I also used to do. Anyways, was stuck in a bootloop and overall the ROM just wouldn't load and I'm guessing it's because something I did. So I go to restore and I hadn't placed the SuigintouLain.zip on my sdcard because I figured everything would go fine. Is there anyways for me to put it on my sdcard and flash the zip from recovery mode?
Edit: Just figured out how to put it on from recovery mode. Still may be in trouble though.
EDIT AGAIN: So I was able to restore and get back to how I was before I started messing with this ROM, but I am really excited to try this ROM out, so I rinse and repeat the steps outlined in the instructions and when I go to reboot after flashing the mms fix my phone freezes at the custom boot animation.

Nuttmeg,
How's it going? Are you doing this while the usb is plugged in? I think there's a bug with that.
when i first flashed this rom when i hit the power button to shut the screen off it shut off like a tv...i just thought it was cool...now it doesn't do it. is there a setting some where to get it back??
Everything works fine with the rom on my phone, the only problem i have is that my google wont sync with my emails or contacts. Does anybody know a fix for this?

Reflash the ROM

Mine just went into ramdump mode or something like that. so I tried powering to recovery. which I guess kicked it to boot and now it's running with no problem
I used the OA2.3.20-FINAL-EXT4-900[FINAL]
Even before i flashed my vitality, the data connection seems to drop on its own. i usually have to toggle airplane mode on then off to make the data work again. Is there any fix for this so i dont have to toggle airplane mode?
SO I installed Both Cricket OA2.3 and I love the GUI and all that are applied, But I am running into Apps Freezing ALL APPS Facebook, Gmail. etc I really Love this ROM and Want to use it. Can Someone explain why it is doing this?> Also Using CWM v5.0.2.8 If anything else Ask. Thanks In advance
sometimes, when i reboot my phone, a black screen pops up saying Reset Mode: Ramdump and its inside a box made out of *'s...what is this? does this mean something is on my phone like a RAT trying to reconnect to its owner to continue sending info? im learning step by step all i can reguarding android platform and java/linux commands ect...yet i have not seen this yet so im a bit confused...do u know whats going on or can you point me in the right direction to find the answer?

Reflash it. Or do what I did, when I ran into that problem I just deleted the programs doing that, restarted the phone then reinstalled the same apps and problem solved

I'm thinking something is conflicting with the kernel. Like some bug that freezes it for a bit. I've had the same problem as well, nothing to do but 'reset' the phone to make it work again. Android devices can be super weird sometimes
Ive been playing with this for the last few days and the only time I managed to get the sound to play, it locked up at the loading screen (assume bad build.prop edit).
Can anyone tell me what files that could effect the bootanimation audio may have been changed or deleted in this rom?
I have installed a custom bootanimation, AND I have gotten the sound to play by adding a line in build.prop, but I cant figure out how to get the audio to sync to the animation...

This rom is awesome and i love it as my daily driver. There are three things i would love to see. The first one would be the Spanish charters fixed because all i see are blank spots. The second thing would be a transparent notification bar with the option to swipe notifications away like in cm7. Lastly a sound booster. The one that's up for flashing now does not make this low volume phone any louder. Other than that this rom is BEASTTT!!!!!!! all my friends at school wanted to know how to make their phone like mine
Im new to all this and the site but i love it i got a question i was following the instructions and i went to make a backup and my phone just turned off it wont power on or anything any suggestions
thanks for the helpful information regarding the vitality.....haven't done anything with it yet because I know this sounds stupid but when it comes to telephones and making backups I'm a total scatter brain.....but how to do exactly create a back up of your phone....
Have a look at the "All things Root" sticky at the top of this sub forum.
The samsung Admire is also the same phone, just a different branding, so that forum is also a good asset to learning about your phone.
GL!

Why can't we remount via adb on this rom? The build probably has support but I keep getting the operation not permitted error. But definitely a good solid daily driver I finally have it themed to my taste. Here's a couple screenies. Nice work man.

Thats odd, I was always able remount fine.
If you can't use the remount command, use this workaround
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount rw /system
replace /system with whatever partition you wish to mount rw.

Cheers.
Yeah shell commands work fine. It's just adb remount/push and pull. So I'm not sure exactly what's going on. I know its not path or variable related because I have no issues with my One or GNex. So idk.
