[ROM] Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 (CM7 for noobs Mod based on CM-7.1 RC-3.0) - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

What Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 really is? It is Cyanogen for Noobs Mod based on CM7.1 RC3.0 for gio. Yes like its name, it designed for easy and very user friendly purpose. The basic idea I build the latest CM7.1 RC.3.0 ported by phiexz (as I think it's already final or likely will be no more update) and compiled it with the all good things here covered almost all the potentially frustrating common issues to make it as stable as it can be for daily uses basis. I do some few mods but may slightly unnoticeable. It is not a custom-rom. I didn’t change the interface and such. I just want to keep it as original as the origin. The most noticeable thing I did may just enabled bootsound. The rest are minor (but of course important!). OK, let put it simply now all you have to do Just Flash and Play*.
*still there is a pre-condition and some optional follow up action below
Here some features Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 offers:
• Latest port CM7.1 RC.3.0 with the all working features (credit to phiexz & squadzone)
• preinstalled gapps (credit to Msiiek)
• avoid false reformatting sd-ext by cwm-recovery issue when flashing (credit to waqasshahzad1986)
• enabled bootsound (customizable ready)
• fix split screen issue
• S2E ready (no need to mod or reformatting sd-ext partition again)
• avoid potentially market causes reboot issue
• avoid potentially installing application causes reboot issue
• use market 2.3.6 as a default (but still updateable and offer you more optional action)
• fix some other minor common issues
• just flash & play
• noobs, start your 'en-gio-ne'! and say "eat my dust" to your old migraine!!

HOW TO INSTALL
WARNING: Dragons Ahead!
But don’t worry the dragon has been tamed. Even dragon is still a dragon, so still don’t be careless & follow the instruction carefully.
First, make sure the pre-conditions fulfilled:
• have any GB 2.3.3 or upper on your device (or any CM7 rom).
• Already made sd-ext partition on your sd-card (and make sure don’t ever let cwm-recovery touch it reformatting again!), recommended use ext4, more over if want to activated S2E (optional). Don't know how to create partition? Go to mr.waqasshahzad1986 section first, believe me he is your best guide here.
• Have cwm-recovery 5.x (recommended px-cwm or px-cwm-v2). You don't have any yet? Please visit mr.phiexz for CM-7.1 RC-3.0 & cwm 5.x section where this rom originally ported.
• Downloaded Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 zip file copied onto your sd card.

Click to collapse
Download Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 here:
Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1.zip
Installation:
• Just Flash & Play!* via cwm-recovery 5.x (press & hold Home+Power button to enter recovery mode)
*no need to wipe or mount anything, install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sd card > CyanoobsMod-7.1.3.1.zip > Yes-Install
• And you just officially 'noobed'! (I mean you already have Cy4noobsMod-7.1.3.1 on your device).
*always recalibrate your battery after flashing any rom!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
easy right?
Optional follow up action:
1. Market
If you want to keep market 2.3.6 as your market and don’t want to get any updated, open terminal emulator (pre-installed with your CM7) and type this:
su
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that will disabled your market updater, but you still can enable it anytime if you decided want to get updated. just change the “disable” type to “enable” with the rest script are still the same.
recommended!! do this as soon as possible after flashed before you got updated automatically. if you already updated just uninstall the new market at "setting>applications>manage applications" and hurry type the script or you can activate flight mode so you will not get updated.
You can ignore all the things from the beginning if you want your market soon get updated (you will get your market updated automatically as long as your internet keep active)
2. Activated S2E (sd-ext ext4 needed!)
• Download S2E from market
• Open it and open its menu, setting, checklist all.
• Buffer size value better leave it as default (there is a chance S2E would repel the partition if set more than 256KB)
• Back, open menu again, choose reboot (usually it won’t reboot at your first time, so you may reboot it manually).
• after reboot open S2E again and checklist all (recommended leave the "application data" still uncheck, but you may check it if you want ap2sd extreme activated).
• open menu, choose reboot again (at this time it should be worked).
• and yes now you have your CM7 with S2E activated.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can ignore all the things if you want try any other app2sd like link2sd (even I think it ported optimized with S2E).

Issues:
• There’s a known bug on gio that it can’t be helped. Cwm-recovery have a habit to reformatting your sd-ext, but it does not format the card correctly on gio. It may not harm if you not using any app to sd-ext things (S2E/link2sd/ app2sd/… or etc), but it does if you do. That’s why I warn you to avoid cwm-recovery ever touching your sd-ext (ex:wipe/format/restore/...etc). Just format your sd-ext partition into ext4 only using your computer. If you want to do any recovery backup-restore things better use any other apps, like Titanium Backup maybe (sorry it may just my limitation, hope the other dev here can help us there).

Notes:
• As it actually designed for noobs, please be wise to use it as it be. Please, don’t try to do silly things to your rom. Don’t try improvised things that some thing to do with your rom like modding or added tweaks. It may ruined your rom (conflict tweaks caution) and please don’t blame me for that. Customize it will be very welcome as long as not touch that area.
• Sure advance users will always have privileges to do sort things (with notes they knew well the risks. sorry noobs, i'm not being double standard here. i'm a noob too anyway). Feel free to have a try my rom for test its stability sir… your reviews would be really very very appreciated.
• Please ignore some grammar error as long as you can understand me.

So CWM is basically useless? Doesn't this means we can't do back up/restore?

You're right after backup it will format ext anyways so all this rom is useless untill new cwm because you still need to use card reader but maybe you can restore from cwm excluding ext partition I dont know anyways I use titanium to backup ext ofcourse maybe Im wrong?

Flash kernel and it will see your partition it helped to me
Sent from my GT-S5660 using Tapatalk

guys i learned & did some little test about gps setting n tweaks... my self conclusion about it gps is very so depend on location (ex:like the country where we live)... it's hard to generalized the issue... some specific setting/tweak can be optimized on some specific location, but can ruined on the other specific location...
so far i have no problem with the current gps, so i just leave it as it is (with the thoughts it's the best default setting)... i won't counted it as an issue as long there is no report so far...

yeah guys... actually there is "an issue"... not with the rom but the s2e itself... (sorry, actually i'm new too to this s2e things)
sometimes there is a chance s2e repel the partition if the buffer size value set default changed... so better just leave it as default... i''ll edited the s2e activation step...
oh yeah u can try some custom kernel from Delanoister, use the kernel for CM-7.1...

Hey, I'm new to flashing and stuff. I wanted to ask if I can flash and make my memory for apps 1gb without installing the cm rom and not stock RUU 2.3.5 gingerbread?? I really like sense and just can go away from it
Please let me know!

Wrong place to ask. This should be in the general section.
-Get your phone S-OFF with XTC-Clip
-Install CWM recovery (in general section sticky)
-Install root kit (instructions in general section sticky)
-Follow the directions to prepare your SD card for a second Ext partition
-Download and flash data2sd if you want. Blech...
-Download and use link2sd. Yay!
Please bother to read the general section help topics and ask the question in a non development thread.
Thanks.
It's the same

It could be interresting to have an installable GioDrivers.zip containing most

When it boots I get a FC on Twitter and when I log in with Timescape on facebook I also get FC (yes, I did install the zip separately)
And how do I get my GAPPS back? I installed the zip but I don't see any of the apps after logging in. .
Pity, it's very unstable for me.
Lot's of FC (especially the sony.homescreen thing..), GPS doesn't work for me either.
Nice try though, looks awesome! Real pity doesn't work for me.

i think its no need as long u have the cwm recovery v2 from phiexz and ext4 partition.
nice, finally there is also a custom rom with base CM7.1
okay I'll try it. thanks for sharing
I love this rom, too bad I can't get it stable.
After a lot of tweaking it finally worked OK, but when I rebooted all the apps I installed on SD card were gone.
It made me freak out a little after putting so much time in getting it the way I wanted it.
I will definitely go back to this rom once stable (for me).
Most FC came from sonyericsson.twitter.livefeed (or something) and timescape didn't work at all.
List of issues I ran into:
Several FC: Timescape, home plug in from sony-ericsson
Disappearing apps after reboot from apps-page, no way to get them back.
Installed everything on phone, even when setting was set to "install apps to external"
Aside from that, this was an amazing rom. Love the Sony-Ericsson home tool.

That is probably a bug needing to be fixed.
I have tried the Sony Xperia and IPhone themes, both clocks are messed up in different colours, then switching back to default i either have Xperia's blue or Iphone's white colour clock.

I believe that issue isn't ROM related, I had that issue before and found out that formatting your SD card will solve the problem, just do a backup before you proceed on reformatting your SDcard.
The camera gives off a 660x495 pixel photo even though i selected 2000x1000 option
Also the USB Storage problem. I also have it and i don't really want to format it as it contains some important stuff, so how will i be able to do a SD backup without the mass storage? Just like pyriyesh103 my phone reboots after enabling the usb storage
Anyway to fix this?

Your microSD should have came with a larger card so card readers can read SD
If you have a recent... maybe 2010+ Laptop, there should be card readers already installed (not including ultra books, netbooks may have it)
Heres what i mean
Insert that into Card Reader, that is connected onto your PC or laptop
And copy all the files to 'backup'
I think that was what John was meaning

@ifrit723 ya thanks for explaining
Or use QTADB
http://qtadb.wordpress.com/
Download the software on your windows
then use this software
its like root explorer but from pc
which can communicate with your pc and phone at same time.and can copy files from pc to /sdcard or /system and vice versa
Its like Android Commander but easy to use.
And this time I am working on a ICS theme for Gingerbread but need some buddies (about 3-4) who can help me in themeing as i can not complete it alone because i cant give much time (preparing for iit and 12th this year)

just found out that when you flash turbo boost, it disables the swap that comes with Shpongle ROM flash.
Fix the permissions of 01swap in init.d (chmod 775) and you would get a lot more swap space. Might as well use it since that internal SD isn't being mounted anyway.

First, THANK YOU!!!
Second, well, I read all posts in Turbo Boost, and, if I'm not completely wrong, idea of Turbo Boost is, to disable system swap and replace it with it's own... So, of course, also Shpongle's swap is disabled...

First, I think we need to assess the pros/cons of swap, and this would highly depend on your usage pattern.
I have another similar spec'd low RAM device that has is running on stripped down barebones (Greenify most stuff, modded autostart receivers..etc) and its working well without any zram/swap. For the HOV I decided the internal nand can take some abuse and still outlast the irreplaceable battery, so making use of unused internal space since we cannot change the partition layouts makes sense.
Pros:
1. More RAM (technically swapped out stuff isn't in the RAM) but we have increased multi-tasking capability
Cons:
1. Slow I/O reading/writing to the NAND as opposed to fast RAM
2. Risk the NAND dies and your phone goes dead
3. More CPU overhead to organize all the I/O, and even more if you use compression like KSM (I think this is still a worthwhile compromise to reduce the amount of data written)
Using swap makes the phone slower in general, but you can also do much more with it. If you like lots of stuff open in the background, browse web pages while listening to music, switch between apps to copy stuff back and forth, this is a nice compromise.
If you are going to use swap, I would say you might as well use lots of it! That is even if you don't see an improvement.
You are spreading out the writing stress across a larger number of cells, get more multi-tasking capability for the phone and see low memory killer work much less often.

I think you might have misunderstood something.
I do recommend using Turbo Boost, but on top of that, also use the internal sd partition as swap. (01swap that comes with Shppongle)
Flashing Turbo Boost changes permissions of 01swap in init.d and disables it.
I believe the logic assumes if you are already mounting a swap file, it's a swap file made on a slower external sd card, but that is not the case with 01swap on HOV.
If you enable 01swap again then you would effectively have 4 Swaps.

[Q] Two Quick questions

Hello ,
My last ROM problem was solved and I know have CM9 ROM .
But I noticed that the files on my sd card are still there ,and I want a Clean start .
I am used that they are deleted whenever I made a ( Reset to factory settings ) as I was making always before thinking to Root and make Custom ROM ,
I just wanted to know what would happen if I Made a ( Reset to factory settings ) from the settings menu ,
ofcourse I know my backup that I have on the internal card will be deleted but :
Will I lose the Root ?
Will I lose the Custom ROM and go back to the original ROM ?
The second question is , I heard before that I can share some space from my external sdcard to my internal sd card , is that really possible by any method ?
Sorry for long topic .
Any one ?
Search on the W forum for a thread by @pepoluan about 'pristine' wiping your phone....it will help you achieve the 'fresh start' that you want....and yes, unless you move your nandroid to alternative storage, you will probably lose it.
And as far as I remember, CM9 has the option to swap storage mounts which will allow you to use your external micro SD card as phone storage......
Find it by......
Menu>>settings>>storage>>menu>>advanced....
and then 'tick' the box against (something like) 'use SD card as phone storage' (it's been a while so I can't remember the exact wording)......

when u install custom rom basically ur stock rom (original rom) is already erased, right? so i don't think it will restore ur stock rom, u can try it though

Thank you very much keithross39 and dec0der ,
I have resetted my phone without any problems at all ,
I just have another newbie question please
I see people talking about ROMs saying for example : CM9 EOL Honeyx Kernel
I don't inderstand anything in this except CM9 , But what is EOL , and what is Honeyx Kernel ?
I downloaded my CM9 version from the official thread here
I know it is written EOL in the Title of the official thread but I don't know what it mean ? and what is the Kernel ? and what name of the kernel I use ?
EOL as far as I know simply means end of line....which means the final release or no further development.... and the kernel is just something you flash on top of the ROM which allows greater control of things like processor speed, voltage etc. Flashing a kernel *can* have it's advantages, but it is not something you *have* to do......

Yes thanks I get it .
But from your experience is flashing kernel is as risky as flashing ROMs ,and do I have to also swap my files when installing it , and if I have a CM 9 . Can I flash any kernel with the name CM9 on it and not CM10 right ?( I am sorry but indeed I was very scared to flash ROM because of the too much talk about bricking the phone ) .
When you modify your phone there's *always* going to be an element of risk.....whether that risk is higher when flashing a kernel or not, I don't know......I've always stayed with the kernel that comes with my chosen ROM. To answer another question, yes you have to use a kernel that is compatible with your ROMs OS version. As for the storage mount swap, I'm fairly certain that this is ROM controlled as opposed to kernel controlled, so you should be OK....

Thanks keithross ,
So I think I am fine with just the CM9 and no need for other kernel ( at least for now ) .
Yeah.....you can always try a kernel another time....but do yourself a favor..... read as much as you can about every kernel you are considering before you flash it.....in the same way that every ROM is different, every kernel will be different and bring different tweaks to your phone.......

First of all it´s nice to see there are still such smart noobs like you who are posting their questions in the correct section. For this you deserve a 1+
About the rest it´s like keithross already said. First become familiar with your fevorite ROM. There is still time to test all the kernels out.
All the custom kernels are supposed to incrase battery life but also have some other tweaks included. Most of them are very similar because they are using a lot of the exact same tweaks like for example the ones for battery. However there are always some differences like the amount of added tweaks.
This is because all the Developers do have slightly different priorities to what is important to tweak. Some devs are more conservative and just adding the tweaks that are really important in his opinion and are also known to work properly with all devices whereas other devs are more openminded to add some new tweaks.
However this doesn´t mean some of them are better and some of them are worse. It´s just like that. One and the same kernel can work very good on one SGW whereas it may cause some problems on a secound SGW due to the included tweaks. Therefore it´s also good to have such a wide-spread variety of custom kernels, so everyone can find out which of them works best on his device.
People should start using Google.
Go to this URL and press 'Ctrl+F' or menu button then find on phones.
Type Kernel and discover things you never knew. As keithross said, research on these kind of stuff before you flash em.
I honestly learnt mine from here but you are free to use Google.
If you use the second link, ignore any talk about sbf. Its Motorola related.
Special thanks for all of you keithross , honeyx , and idelta ...
I think I have been very familial with the CM9 and I will be reading about your kernel honeyx very soon , I want to try it first one
Thanks again
