flash question - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

Samsung Galaxy W:
1 - To flash a new ROM with ODIN the phone must be rooted? Yes, no, or "no need but advisable"?
2 - Inside CSC file i8150OXXKL4 (or even OXXKL2), that I think is a multiCSC file, wich languages are included, exactly? Anybody knows? Or at least anybody knows if Portuguese language is included?
Thanks.

1. No, when you flash a stock rom to your phone using ODIN your phone will no longer have root access. so you have to root it again.
2. Try XXLM8. it has Portuguese in it.

[App][Mod][Script] switch modem anytime anywhere (EDIT: 201011102047HKT csc added)

i made this little update.zip just for testing with different modems anytime i want to, so it may be useless to most of u guys but i think some ppl may need it in some cases
the attached is ONLY a skeleton, the modem file inside the zip is an empty file
usage:
- open the update-modem-xxx.zip file and drag the modem.bin u want to flash in the zip and replace the zero size modem.bin in it (no need to chg other files), close the zip and that's all
- make copies of zip file for different modems if u wish (sorry but no time to make fancy file selection at the moment)
- flash the modem by selecting ur desire modem in cwm under /sdcard (pls refer to cwm page for how-to)
- no need to worry about recovery2e or 3x coz as long as u can run cwm, u r with recovery2e (or others in the future)
so possibilily, u can have update-modem-jpp.zip, update-modem-jpa.zip, and so forth
and for me, i've the following files on my sdcard:
update-modem-I9000XWJPA.zip
update-modem-I9000XXJPP.zip
update-modem-I9000ZSJP8.zip
update-modem-I9000ZSJPE.zip
why?
- provides a way to let u switch modem if u suspects the modem causes problems
- see if u can find the best modem for u
how?
- the modem will be flashed with redbend_ua, a direct write to ur phone's /dev/block/bml12
Note: ur phone will flick 2 or 3 times during flash
WARNING: i tested it on my phone with JPx, froyo 2.2 on galaxy i9000 only. I cannot say it's 100% safe although i flashed my phone a lot of times, so use it at your own risks
Also note that there will be NO updates in the future
EDIT: the redbend_ua is taken from somwhere, all credits go to the modder
+1 for this. Can i use this to change my csc too?

Can somebody compile a zip file with JPE modem inside? I'm outside of my town for this week and I wanted to test JPE Modem, I just have my phone with me.
Please, thanks!

sure and attached
but i wonder why u need that coz the csc can be easily replaced
anyway, open the zip file, change all TGY (Hong Kong) to ur country/sales code, as well as rename the TGY directory to ur country/sales code. however, i've remove all localized apps from the csc (ie nothing except sales code, so u'll have to add urs if u want to)
Note that it does not "flash" anything to ur phone, instead it will create custom csc files on /system and /system/csc only
Thanks a lot ykk_five!!
OP, you could also just for "fun" include a .bat file, signapk.jar, testkeys and allow the user to drop in any modem and run the .bat to get a signed zip (ofcourse im targetting 2e users when i say this).
does anyone have specs on the modems signals ?
currently on jpo firmware and signal is very low
its not very good at home anytime with o2 but it would be nice to try them all to see if i get better reception .
has anyone compiled a full list of available modem files for froyo

Thanks for your effort, my problem is I keep flashing ROMS, & even the so called BIG APN list doesn't list all the providers of India. I use 2 of them & while with one I dont have a problem, with the other, I always need to feed APN settings everytime. I am an Architect, trigger happy & looking for readymade solutions so that I get more time for my profession.
Will you please do up a flashable update.zip for India? I can just flash it & all my settings are again correct.
Thanks again.
PS : If this can become like a repository of various modems & csc's, could be a HIT with people like me.
can someone give me the i9000ORO modem file ? i have jpa ver on my phone.
thx!

[ROM] Hybrid Stock XWJS3 pda + OLBJPA csc + DXJPB modem

Many people have been asking me how to get the combination of the stock Android 2.2.1 ROM, XWJS3 with the CSC and modem from the Asian DXJPE rom.
I decided to put up this procedure and downloads for those who want to try it.
I assume that you already know how to use Odin.
1. Download the XWJS3 PDA file, this file includes the SpeedMod K12P kernel already.
>>> DOWNLOAD LINK.
2. Download the DXJPB modem file below, and extract the .tar file inside the .7z file (DXJPB modem is from the DXJPE rom).
3. Flash the XWJS3 PDA tar as PDA using Odin, and DXJPB modem tar as MODEM.
No re-partition, no PIT.
4. Now you should get XWJS3 PDA and DXJPB modem, but no CSC.
5. Download the file below - it is a 7zip file that contains update-csc-olbjpa-xsp.zip. Extract the file update-csc-olbjpa-xsp.zip and put that in your internal SD card.
6. Reboot into the CWM Recovery and choose "Install ZIP, choose zip", then choose the update-csc-olbjpa-xsp.zip file above.
7. Now reboot your phone again and you should have the OLBJPA CSC with the XSP sales code selected.
----- About the CSC -----
The attached update-csc zip file contains a modified XSP sales code which has the APNs and MMS settings for all operators in the OLBJPA CSC - so that's all operators in Southeast Asia. I made this for my own convenience as I swap SIM cards from several countries a lot, but I figured it will be useful for most people living in SEA.
Reserved for future use.
Any possibility to have the native locale as SEA instead of Euro based?
just what i was looking for. nice one hardcore!
I got Force Close after lagfix, it seems only happen to I9000XWJS3 - "the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. please try again" any idea?
P.S: It works fine if only "Root", happen like this after lagfix has been done, I had tried to wipe all, reflash rom etc, it still happen same. has flash back to I9000DXJPE...
haha.. this is what im asking! thanks!
Thank u very much, Hardcore.
I've posted sometime ago in your Speedmode thread to ask u if u mind to share your rom, modem and csc. Finally... Happy to see this.
Hi Hardcore ,
would you add JPJPG modem to XWJS3 ? I think this is the way that lead us to have persian/arabic support on this rom...
Thanks a lot.
maybe u should format your internal memory card

The modem has nothing to do with persian/arabic support.

Yeah... This answer the mistery behind hardcore's mixed ROM status... Really what I'm looking for... Thanks hardcore...
@hardcore
Thanks for the rom - works great.
I seem to have a problem now with text messages not being correct.
Ex: Should say Power Off on menu, but says Sound is On.
My csc version says unknown.
Any ideas?

U might have used a modified resource apk like a battery icon mod. U have to make a new one matching this rom.

You should check out Juggernaut 2.5. They recently released an update that has 45 different languages on the phone. Definitely consider checking it out for the performance boosts anyways.

I quote AllGamer's post from another thread:
AllGamer said:
you know... you can always Extract the Chinese language APK from another ROM that includes it, and the add it to your favourite ROM, eh?
it's not that hard,
if just use Root Explorer, or simple Unzip the whole ROM in your PC then find the files you need, remember the locations
and copy them back into your phone
then set newly added file permissions to 740
it can be done with any language

No offense, but it's hightly suspicioous to post an EXE file (i.e. Can be a VIRUS, or something that could do whatever to your computer) from a user that has only 8 posts in this forum, and been confirmed by someone with 17 posts...
Please change the file format to RAR, ZIP, like everybody else.
It is a self extracting compressed file containing the tar file compressed with 7z.
RAR uploaded.
thanks man

Trying
Hi Rivalbro,
This is the first time i will upgrade from froyo to GB. I will try this anyway, so wish me luck...tx a lot
Edit:
this is for my other gadget ... the i9000, not the Leo...
is it a one file flashing rom? i suppose it goes in PDA field, right (havent used odin for a long time)? is the extension .tar.md5 good? i remember that all files i have flashed had only .tar ... sorry for this noobish questions , i am a bit "rusty"
is this ROM with the value pack?
help
Hi,
I just flashed my i9000 according your instruction. I put rom on bootloader field (right?), turn off, enter downloading, put kernel in bootloader field again, enter CMW and install fix RTL. But i hav galaxy looping right now. please help...
thanks
Hi, sorry for answering so late, had no internet...
You need to select the tar.md5 in PDA, not bootloader. The kernel as well.
It is the value pack version with Touchwiz 4 like the Galaxy S2.

RTL is a fix for "Right To Left" reading languages like arabic, urdu. No need to worry if you don't use RTL type languages.

[ROM] enhanced236 - Paypal issue

Dear,
Yesterday I have installed the enhanced236 ROM.
I can't find or install Paypal from the market or the Paypal-site.
What i tried bymyself:
Install an other ROM (GIO Speedo and Light Orange); I don't have this issue. I can install Paypal
Today i went back to the enhanced236 MOD and i have again the problem: No Paypal. Not from the market not from the site.
message:
This device is not compatible
-Did I something wrong?
-Is there anything I can do to have paypal on my Gio with the enhanced236 MOD?
This is my first message so I hope it is posted in the correct forum. Don't shoot me when it's not.
I can install it just fine over here on my ROM ... You can try one of these methods here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397661.

Thank you for your quick response.
I tried option 1 and 3.
Both solutions don't work for me.
I can find it in the market but still the message: Not compatible wit your device
Don't know if it's the case, but have you wiped data/reset during installation?
Or, it may have something to do with the CSC - default in the ROM is a romanian one, and since you obviously have another provider, it may conflict.
You can try to find a CSC for your country/operator and manually install it (copy the files to /system partition); unfortunately, automatic CSC selection only works with stock recovery and RFS filesystem.

WOW............ thats sounds new for me. This will take some more time.
I will google for a new CSC and after that i will try.
Please have some patience for a response, as i said: this will take some time and understanding. Since this week i tried to install a custom rom so i have to learn a lot.
Again, Thank you.
Your help is appreciated!
Sorry for bad english
Maybe you can download a modded play store on xda. I had the same problem when I tried cm9

Remember that most CSC changing guides use the automatic way (dial a certain code etc.) - it will not work on roms that use other recoveries/filesystem format. I can help you to manually add your CSC after you find the appropiate one.
Hint: look for a firmware for your country or even branded for your operator, if it exists. You can extract from there.

I think i have to give it up. This is, on this moment, a level too high. Maybe I have to install another ROM like Light Orange or so. It's also a nice ROM and a high antutu benchmark. Light Orange = 1824, Enhanced236 = 1835
Both ROMS are fast. The enhanced236 looks nicer........
You are great help! :good:

try to get the app from another site and install it. But before, enable Install from other locations (it is an option to enable installation of apk files that are not from the market). I had the same issue with other apps and it worked for me
I already install the light orange rom. That one works fine too.
