    That's one to many zip files for my liking, reminds me of when I first started out, flashing loads of zips in order to get a ROM.

    Let us know how it goes for you...

    It's 3, which you have to more or less do with Cyanogenmod and a custom kernel anyway. Or 2 if you don't want root.

    Be interested to see how it goes before I take the plunge tomorrow.
    You get your wifi working properly yet ?

    Nope, its just a bit weak.

    What are the three zips that you need to flash?

    I thought I was being smart and flashed the pawtips one first and then the onecosmic one over it.

    Maybe I missed something

    The three zips I can see that need flashed are the main build, then the kernel and the superuser ?
    All available from here.

    There's another kernel that can be flashed aswell with some new changes.
    http://www.multiupload.com/CPOC9JIIJI
    I have build a kernel from onecosmics sources, but i have added tweaked smartassV2 governor from Zach's neo 18 kernel.

    also the partition sizes are little bit different from onecosmics.

    this kernel has:
    cache: 17,5 mb
    system: 250 mb
    data: 1,8 gb
    datadata:170 mb

    i have also added 2 libs from teamhacksungs gapps 5.1 and the extended power menu from teamhacksung build 4. because of this, the package is about 20mb.

    Just charging her up then going to do a nandroid then will flash it.
    Hopefully all going well will be on it before lunch.

    Maybe you kept root after flashing pawtips one ?

    Yeah maybe that was it. Going to try that other kernel in a bit. Really want the extended power menu.

    Let me know how you get on


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-


    Flashed the ROM and the new kernel and it's on a black screen these past 6 minsutes now. Hmmmm
    Will wait a bit longer then reboot to recovery and flash the original fugu kernel.

    How long should it take to boot first time ? They did say it'd be a while ?

    Edit: reflashed ROM and normal fuf kernel all booted up now.
    Nice, now to try get my apps back on.

    First impressions? I just put that new kernel on.

    Where can you change what is on the power menu?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,687 ✭✭✭Raoul


    Right so first major problem for me which I wont get to fix until after the weekend.

    Flashed that new kernel and my music wouldn't work. So I went in deleted it all and was going to put it back on. So I was going to put it back on but now my sd card needs reformatting because it is still saying its full.

    PC doesn't see the sd card as a storage device so I cant format it. Tried to download an app to do it and it reformatted my internal sd card. :mad: At the moment, I don't have time to do anything else.

    I had problems getting stuff to run frm my eternal SD, where I had backed up my apps and couldn't get them restored.
    Restoring my nandroid from this morningn now.

    Sorry to hear bout your problems. Guess fully funtional ICS is just not there yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-


    Seems this has an updated SuperUser soemone mentioned this could be a problem with th SD cards ?
    Anyway this latest build has it and I reckon should I be in a fit state tomorrow I'll end up flashing it.

    Go to XDA.com and look for your device, then Darkys thread, you'll find the answer there.

    You should have just flashed insanity, much better than darkys. well if I was you i would have waited for a stable ics to come out.

    P.s Lewis is probably the most helpful person in the thread when you have real difficulty or if your flashing is going badly. Just doesn't like when you ask here when the answer is easily found earlier in the thread


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,653 ✭✭✭Ghandee


    Three upgraded me to an sgs2 guys. Truth be known, there isn't that much of a diffidence to the original (battery life etc). Sending original galaxy up the north to my dad who is a complete gadget noob!

    Just thinking with insanity needing tweaks here and there, i'm probably better off sticking to the latest stock ROM, kernel, modem (I downloaded from samfirmware.com)

    Would you agree?

    It must be brilliant to know it all.

    All you had to do was answer yes or no.i think you have reached the stage where you just don't want noobs in here.

    The guy just wanted a little info.hes dead right
    if you didn't want to help why did u bother posting.just keep your mouth shut, after all he didn't ask you the question.

    Imo your about as helpfull as a sore toe.your the exact example why noobs are terrified of posting messages, in case they are ridiculed by the likes of you.

    Nope, any and every custom ROM need a little tweak here and there, that`s the joy of them, Insanity needs very little tweaking to make it "your`s".

    I know far from it all man, the little I do know is from endless months of reading and reading and searching.

    Why would I not want noobs in here, I`m here to help out anyone and everyone, the best way I can, end of and if you don`t like it then tough.

    I helped him by not helping him, the way the Android side goes is if you want to do something, read up on it before you do it, cause if you **** it up, sure as hell you`ll be in here pissing and moaning about it.

    From what I gather is that this is a forum, all questions are aimed at EVERYONE, so your open to get all kinds of answers, again, if you don`t like it tough.

    Well when your "toe" gets stepped on, don`t worry, I won`t help you out.

    I`m the reason why noobs are "terrified", don`t make me laugh man, what do you think this is a playground and I`m the big bad scary man? lol

    By the way, I`ve helped a fair few people, here and other places..

    I'm with lewis on this one. Too many people just logging on to forums such as this and going straight in with the question. Couldn't be bothered using the search function or even google. Instead just hoping to find some eejit who has done all the research for them. I used to help out a fair bit on this forum but just grew tired of seeing the same questions getting asked over and over again. Answers to most if not all questions can be found with a quick search.....

    Back to ICS today.
    Using Titanium to restore my apps taking it easy and hoping to trim a few of them off.
    Angry birds first on!
    Can't access the market but will wait till I have my wifi at home for that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-

    I was on that for a couple of days and found it more stable but I got an ipad and I needed to be able to create an ad hoc wireless network and I couldn't do it on that rom. So I had to go back to onecosmics.
