Root (Port) Behold II Factory 1.6

[spiz]

the behold II got 1.6 update rather then a 2.1 upgrade?

Neither. It's been ported thanks to BH_MAN on these forums.

Can anyone that is still Running Stock Behold 2 No Twiz Pull the TwLauncher.apk & the Launcher.apk Out of 1.5 Stock Behold 2?

Once I get those 2 File's I can Get the No Twiz 1.6 into a ODIN image for everyone...
Thanks

BH_MAN hop in IRC chat. I can put it on my phone if you need me to. My only concern is going back to 1.5 from 1.6 and what that entails. Is it just a matter of flashing the ODIN image?

EDIT: It looks like bluey123 has what you need. He's in IRC.

Yeah it's Just a Matter of ODIN, but I'll lose everything I've done if I odin just to get those FIle's lol...

this might sound dumb but do I need to root my phone first or just install with Odin?... first time to flash a phone and first smartphone don't wanna screw it up. thnx y'all

no, you don't need to root.

hey BH_MAN, how identical to your {PORT} Behold 2 Stock ( No Twiz w/ Root & Busybox ) ( BH-MAN-ODIN.tar.zip) is this going to be? I really like that build (particularly the rotating home screen and 7 screens to play with). is there a way to update that build to 1.6 or is that what you've already done? just wanna say again that you are freakin awesome! thanks for all your help.

 

[behold_this]

please at least skim through the thread next time. it is full factory! he will release a no twiz version soon, though...looks like sometime tonight.

not trying to be a prick but there are threads addressing your problem, please search. guys we have got to try to keep this thread clean for bug reporting only about the ROM out of respect for BH_MAN. these are not issues with the rom...they are issues with installing it...big difference. so lets keep it relevant thanx

Maybe others can check, but seems I've run into the wifi sleep bug.

I just wanted to say hi i just bought this phone for my GF and was surprised of the build that it had thanks for all of your work

I hope this is true but swype being the default keyboard (T-Mobile made this standard for all Android phones) and the inclusion of all the twiz apps which would take a lot of time to port to 1.6 is making me think this is an official release (also with BH_MAN staying mum doesn't help). I hope 2.1 can get ported because I really don't think we are going to get 2.1 especially since Galaxy S is getting 2.1 with all new advanced twiz. Samsung is not going to give us new features for free and they probably wont spend the time porting old features to the new OS that they already have finished with other software. This depresses me (well it's a phone so not that much depression)

Bh_man -- awesome work. Out of curiosity, did mark twain also provide an unrooted/virgin behold 2 recovery on 1.6 ?

 

[psychoace]

You are supposed to push it after you booted into the new OS which is after odin but not in download mode.

BH_MAN is there a fix I can do for the voice search fc's? Would replacing the apk with another version help? I want to continue to use this rom rather than the no twiz and this is the only issue I'm having everything else has been great including battery life! I appreciate your help.

[behold_this]

Thanx anyway! I have a couple different versions so I think I'll try each one and see if I have any luck.
