Complete firmware to be installed via FlashTool and valid for all models of Haipai I9389
(link King Rom for FlahTool ).
See here
Links to everything that is required for proper installation can be found in the following paragraphs.
An introduction is dueIf you are looking for a Rom that only changes the look and feel of the phone, which has a nice logo Samsung, or other (which I think is really pathetic), or having many beautiful colorful icons and also some beautiful 3D effects and maybe even makes a good coffee… then don't download my Rom is not for you!
But if you are looking for fluidity and speed, if you want a gps fix in a few seconds, if you want a wi fi stable and fast, if you want the best performance from your phone, then download it, this is your Rom!!

Installing the King Rom 3.0 EvolutionAfter you have made the backup of your device we can proceed to install the Rom You may have already downloaded the zip file from the link above and unpacked in the position you want into the PC.
If you've never installed on your pc, download the preloader drivers from here Drivers preloader
Unzip this file and start the installer.
Now download this version of FlashTools from here FlashTool
Unzip the file to a location of your choice on your PC
You start Flash_tools.exe with administrator privileges ( right-click on the exe file and from the menu "Run as administrator" )
In Flashtools click the voice Scatter-loading (top right) and look for the file "MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" into the directory where you unzipped the firmware.

The procedure is completed . Disconnect the phone from the computer , replace the battery , turn it on and have fun!
Resolution of any problems that may occur as a result of the installation of the RomI invite everyone to make a backup.
Only if you have done the backup and you are able to restore the device then you can write me relatively few bugs in the rom or any other problem.

I just installed swipe and works well.
To you, do not install or you can not download from playstore. In this case checks that you aren't running any screen adjustment app like Screen Adjuster or something.
I have download from google PLAY but is impossible to activate

This is a link to install with cwm : https ://mega.co.nz/#!RctXkJ4Y!R6xJ-iYZVY35rtkfoIyV4D577It8Q0_X-60x67OYCUU
However, this is not good on all models but only 2 gb ram,
if you have the model 1 gb ram have to do with flash Flashtools because you need to install the correct drivers
Thanks

Thanks so much but... I'm afraid any solution works.
Trying to delete cache (apk's) it doesn't delete at all and 12 kb remains.
After that, reboot into CWM recovery, I did both, wipe partition and wipe dalvik cache and the same results.
But remember, everything seems to work fine; it's only to "accept" both messages after reboot... That's all!!

the cpu identifier shows "ram memory module: 2gbyte (faked ram value ?) (Usable: 1953 Mb)"
on the site i bought my i9389 it shows 1 gb ram..
is it save to flash through cwm? my last phone was bricked after using flashtool so i wouldnt use it again
edit:
worked fine , thanks olidan for this n1 rom!
for all who dont know how to find out the ram version i suggest the cpu identifier app, maybe the china workers giving you some extra ram space like me?

PLEASE NOTE: If you are using a Canadian handset, I recommend switching over to my JL2 based ROM. It's the same speed (if not quicker), and I will be providing much more updates for it. The ROM can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906977
News
12/23/10 - v0.2 released! Includes an error-checking script to prevent possible errors from occuring, new Steam recovery, wipe and non-wipe versions and more! Check the changelog for more info.
12/22/10 - v0.1, initial beta release
Hey everyone,
This is a rom which aims to provide the absolute best user experience by being extremely quick without sacrificing any necessary features. The majority of Samsung bloatware is removed, however a good portion of the pre-installed apps are left untouched. This ROM is based on XXJPY (Froyo 2.2.1).
If you have any questions prior, while, or after installing this ROM, please read the first few posts, as I'll try to address every possible (major) problem which can occur. If, after reading the posts, you are still encountering a problem, please reply to this thread being as detailed as possible. This allows me to fix problems quickly and easily.
Now, this is my first ROM, so there are bound to be a handful of bugs. However, I've been using this ROM for a few days and have yet to encounter any major problems.
Note: Please don't complain about Quadrant, Linpack, or any other pointless benchmark scores. If you've used the ROM and it's sluggish, by all means tell me, but don't base your opinion of the speed merely on a benchmark.
Okay, so what now?

Installation Instructions
Before installing, disable any lagfixes (which can typically be done by booting into recovery mode and selecting "Disable Lagfix").
Also, if you wish, backup everything! Perform a NANDROID backup in recovery, backup your music, files, etc. In case something goes wrong (it will eventually), you'll have peace of mind.
Please note: this rom will wipe all your data. It will not, however, format your internal or external SD cards. This means you'll lose apps and settings, but not music, movies, etc.
Lastly, I recommend performing a factory reset before installing any new rom.
If you're running a previous version of my ROM, feel free to install the non-wiping version. However, if you're switching roms, I recommend running the standard version, which will erase all data.
1. Download and copy this file to your internal memory card.
2. Boot into recovery, and select "Install zip from sdcard".
3. Select "Choose zip from sdcard", and scroll to the ROM.
4. Select OK, and wait for the file to flash.
5. Reboot. This reboot will take a while (upwards of 2-5 minutes), so be patient and don't shut off your phone!
Congratulations, you've successfully flashed!
After it boots, I'd recommend doing a few things in order to allow your phone to be as quick as possible:
1. Boot back into recovery, select "Advanced SpeedMod ULK Features". Choose "LAGFIX options", then "Faster: EXT4 ALL". This applies a lagfix, and converts the partitions into the faster EXT4 filesystem.
2. In recovery, go back to the Advanced SpeedMod ULK Features menu. Choose "TWEAK options", and enable every tweak. For more information about these tweaks, see HERE.
Also, window animations are disabled by default. You can enable them by going into settings -> Display, and selecting Animations.
3. If you'd like the Gingerbread Keyboard, open up the My Files application and navigate to the directory "Gingerbread_Keyboard". Open up the .APK file and install as usual.

FAQ And Problems
FAQ
I'm on stock Froyo and I have 3e recovery!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No worries. Follow these steps:
1. Download Odin from here.
2. Download the Speedmod kernel for whichever Android version you're running. Make sure to download the Odin kernel, not the CWM one!
3. After downloading, extract the .TAR file from the file you just downloaded.
4. Open Odin, and turn off your phone. Connect your phone to your PC via USB, and enter download mode by holding volume down + home + power.
5. Odin should detect your phone. Load up the .TAR file in the "PDA" box in Odin. Make sure the other boxes are left blank. Untick "Repartition". Start flashing.
6. Your phone should automatically reboot with the new kernel! To double check, shut it off and boot into recovery. If you see CWM recovery, you're successful!
7. Now you're required to download the patch for the Speedmod kernel, which will allow you to copy the ROM over to your internal SD card. If you don't install this patch, the internal SD card will be detected as a CD drive, and will be read-only. The patch is able to be downloaded from HERE. Simply copy this patch to your SD card, boot into CWM, and flash it using "install zip from sdcard". After doing this, follow the normal steps to install this rom!
I'm encountering force-close issues, and general app issues right after installation.

Simply perform a factory reset. Clear the cache + Dalvik cache in recovery as well, if you'd like.
What's this steam recovery and how do I access it?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steam recovery is a new, semi-functional multi-touch recovery created by sztupy. This recovery has all the features the standard CWM one has and more. Check his thread for more info.
Please note: Because (currently) the only Steam-compatible kernel is based on a much older base version (ie: not XXJPY), a small amount of features are incompatible, such as lagfix options, kernel options, etc. However, the majority of features (such as mounting, wiping, etc) are working just fine. I'm working on getting everything working; as soon as it is, it will fully replace CWM on this ROM.
To enable it, just boot into CWM and go to "Apply sdcard: update.zip". After doing this, it will boot into the new Steam recovery. You must do this every time you want to access it.
My GPS isn't working! It takes forever to lock and displays my position inaccurately!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try clearing the GPS data on your phone. Do the following: (Original poster unknown. Reposted by dpvu.)
1) Enter *#3214789650# into the dialpad.
2) Under "Application Settings" set the Start Mode to Coldstart.
3) At the main menu "Delete GPS Data".
4) At the main menu "Get Position Test".
If you're still not finding many satellites try setting Operation Mode to "MS Based" in the "Application Settings". I did all of this then set the GPS back to hot start.

I'm using this modem because I need the Canadian band, because, well, I'm located in Canada. And, according to this guide, this modem is very good on battery life and reception.
In later versions of this ROM I'll most likely include a different modem (or a flashable modem). Something like that.
Any modem you'd prefer to see included?
Place this zip into PDA on Odin and upload it.
Any chance to work this?
I would like to try this rom,but I've 3e and I can't do it the way been described...

Nice to see another dev helping the SGS Community.
Feel free to PM me if you have a question or anything else

Sounds good
Will likely give this a try as the XXJPX modem causes me to lose my 850 WCDMA connection all too frequently (even though I've enabled it). Just curious if there are any problems with Market, or will it come updated to 2.2.7 already?
Cheers mate!

This thread is reserved for nightly builds of CyanogenMod Rom for Samsung Galaxy S.
All Samsung Roms are running ontop of BML/RFS, CyanogenMod 7 does NOT.
It runs on MTD/yaffs2 (like Nexus One) which means you're not able to flash any kernel or run any filesystem you want. Use it as it is.
Only data partition, which is on movinand, is ext4 like on speedmod or voodoo ("lagfix").
CyanogenMod is a free, community built distribution of Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone.
Code:
** These CyanogenMod builds are highly experimental and unsupported.
**
** Please refrain from submitting bug reports for any issues
** you may encounter while running one of these builds.
**
** Submitting bug reports on nightly builds is the leading
** cause of male impotence.
What are Nightly builds? Auto compiled builds of the latest CyanogenMod source from github. This version change each night and aren't officialy supported.
If you find bugs/issues you can/must discuss here (do not submit nightlies bug on CyanogenMod issue tracker).
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First time flashing CM 7 to your Galaxy S (or coming from another ROM)?
Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery.
Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo
Do a Nandroid backup!
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
Optionally install the Google Addon
- Upgrading from earlier CM7?
Do a Nandroid Backup!
Install the ROM (your Google apps will be backed up automatically)
There are no Google Apps bundled with CM ROMs, because Google asked Cyanogen to remove copyrighted apps, after flashing rom don't forget to flash Google Addon package if you want it.

Regards,
~drz
have i ever told you i love you? i'm pretty sure i have but i'd just like to tell you again. i'm sorry for this offtopic post but i'll edit it later to something useful. just wanted to show my affection.
This should be it since the beginning.
Clean thread. That's how I like it
Excited for the Coming Soon patch!
Reboot Recovery
Woah! Can't wait to try this.
The quick troubleshooting post.
This post contains a compilation of problems/issues and answers provided in this thread and earlier threads. Not all answers are tested by me and I will in no way guarantee that this wont mess up your phone.
You know, watch your kittens. They might be eaten by following the advice written down here.
DETAILED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAN BE FOUND HERE.
rschenck wrote a very nice (and updated) guide for how you install CM7 on your SGS these days.
Things have changed quite a bit recently, so even if you installed it two weeks ago, you may want to check this one again.
What do people mean with "correct" bootloader? How can I make sure I have the right one?
Do NOT install directly on top of existing Samsung 2.3.3 firmwares or other firmwares based on this (like Darky's 10). Similarly, don't install directly on top of Eclair.
See this very easy guide on the android soul for flashing XXJPU, which is Froyo with the correct bootloaders needed..
I'm not sure I understand these procedures. Can you draw it out for me?
Anticipating this very question, rschenck actually did draw out a flow-chart for you.
See here.
But I'm not using the I9000, I'm using something else...
codeworkx provided a reference list you can check to ensure you are getting the right files.
After flashing the initial CM kernel I can't get CWM Recovery to work. It just displays some weird image
CWM Recovery might have different keymappings from the ones you are used to.
- Volume keys: Naviagte up and down in menus
- Power button: Select item
- Home key: Show/hide menus
If you are only seeing a weird image, chances are you've hidden the menu by pressing the home key. Try pressing it again
I can't find Cyanogenmod nightlies in ROM Manager
Yes. CM7 for the SGS is now mainlined and supports ROM Manager for nightlies, should you have the premium version. If you have the Premium version, follow these very graphic instructions to configure ROM Manager for nightlies.
To install from MIUI (courtesy of runedrune)
- Reboot into recovery using 3-button-combo
- Choose "mounts & storage" and format system, data, cache, datadata
- Do not apply the initial-file.
- Apply the latest update
- Apply the latest gapps (which can be obtained here. You want the one with -gb- in the name )
- Done. Reboot
Odin doesn't recognize my phone anymore and I want this fixed in case I mess something up
You will probably need the Nexus S drivers (which supposedly is really just some updated Galaxy S drivers).
If Odin for some reason don't see your device when connected, make sure the old Galaxy S drivers are uninstalled and removed. Bilboa1 gives some good hints about how to make sure your drivers are actually fully removed. Do check this before proceeding to install the Nexus S drivers.
After you have installed the Nexus S drivers, plug in your phone. Windows should now install some drivers, but you are not done yet. When using download-mode your phone will show up a little differently to Windows, so put your phone in download-mode and plug it in, with neither Kies nor Odin running. You will probably see Windows installing some more drivers.
After doing this, Odin should hopefully be able to recognize (and flash) your phone.
IS THIS "FOR EVERYDAY USE" NOW?
It depends. If you have to ask, it probably isn't.
I've flashed this and decided it is not ready for me. How do I flash back to stock ROMs?
Get the appropriate firmware you are interested in, flash as usual using Odin, but check re-partition and use the 512 pit-file.
For pre-rooted stock-images, you can use EZBase as shown here (also includes download links).
OTHER STUFF / KNOWN ISSUES AND SOLUTIONS
Please take a look here to see if your issue is mentioned and has a known solution before posting.
After flashing CM7 I get strange colours on my screen during boot
You do not have the correct bootloaders. Basically flash 2.2.1 following this article and then redo the CM7 installation. All should be fine.
Guys! Guys! I cannot find Android Market!
Google stuff is not included in CM7 by default. Download and apply latest gapps from CWM. You want the "universal" one with "-gb-" in the name.
But I want the latest gtalk with video and all that fancy stuff
got_milk was nice and uploaded some stuff. Beware though that lots of people are reporting this to force-close a lot, and that's not just on SGS CM7.
Can I run Samsung apps like Memo, Camera etc on this firmware?
No. Sorry. All Samsung apps depend on TouchWiz libraries which can only be found in Samsung firmwares.
How do I get additional themes for CM7 themes chooser?
Check the themes forum here on XDA or search for "CM7 themes" on Android market.
Once installed, the themes will be available in the themes chooser yes. According to the devs should reboot to fully apply the theme, but if you want to avoid reboots Android market might have something for you.
Things used to work, I applied a nightly update and now everything force-closes
Try wiping cache and dalvik cache in CWM. You should do this every time you install a new update.
Does CM7 need a lagfix?
CM7 uses ext4 (for /data) and yaffs2 (for everything else). CM7 does not use Samsung's RFS which was the main cause of poor performance on Samsung firmwares.
So no, your system is already lagfixed, you don't need to apply a lagfix and according to the developers very bad things will happen if you try to apply one anyway.
My current ROM has a lagfix. Do I need to disable that?
Probably not.
If you have a 2.3.3 ROM with 2.3.3 bootloaders, you will want to do a full wipe to stock 2.2.1. See above. In this case you no longer have a lagfix anyway and don't have to worry about it.
If you have a non-2.3.3 ROM with a lagfix, you don't have to disable it. All your partitions will get wiped by the installer anyway and so will your lagfix.
For whatever reason, I want to flash a custom kernel
You can use custom-kernels, but CM7 is a work in progress with new kernel-revisions popping out with every release. Make sure you flash a kernel which is compatible with the nightly you are running. Also: Do NOT flash via Odin, flash via CWM.
rschenck has a very good post on this.
If all you want is a "voodoo kernel" for voodoo sound, just (buy and) install Voodoo Control Plus from the market. It will load the required kernel-modules while you can stay on the stock kernel, making the lives of the developers much easier should you encounter bugs.
Is it possible to flash my own CSC from recovery after installing cm7?
According to the devs, this should not be needed.
Flashing other modems/radios
(Courtesy of GrimVarg: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13399590&postcount=8117 )
Odin will not work and it might **** **** up. The reason is that Odin and heimdal does not understand the CM partition layout and will just write the modem where it thinks is should be. Overwriting other stuff in the process.. So you need to use the specific update zipfiles on teamhacksungs sourceforge page
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instead of using Odin, download radio-packages from the following link, transfer to your phone and flash via CWM:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/teamhacksung/files/galaxys/
I want to keep my 850 band, and I don't recognize any of the modems on the sourceforge page
Lorssoth says "use KC1" and robbiev80 posted some download links you might be interested in.
Does external SD card work with cm7? Thanks!
It does. Make sure you have the proper bootloaders before installing as mentioned in the first part of this post. EZBase can be used for this.
External SD card will get mounted as /mnt/emmc. This may not be visible to all apps. If you desperately need the contents visible to apps only looking in /mnt/sdcard, create an empty directory there and remount the /mnt/emmc there as well:
Using either the terminal emulator or adb shell:
Code:
su
mkdir -p /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
mount /dev/block/vold/179:9 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
Note: This is only a temporary fix for when needed. It will cause issues when you try to use USB sharing later. Write the following to get things back to normal:
Code:
umount /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
USB sharing doesn't work
Try installing the Nexus S drivers, instead of the Samsung ones.
After installing this camera doesn't work
Try locking and unlocking your phone. No really.
After installing this I cannot get any data-connections apart from wifi
There is a problem with RIL (radio interface layer)-polling. Lock and unlock and you should be OK.
If this sounds cumbersome, mobilescooby claims that installing Juicedefender somehow fixes this for him and that he no longer needs any lock and unluck boot-rituals.
This issue should now be resolved.
After doing this I still cannot get any data-connection apart from wifi
You might need to configure APN settings. Normally your network-provider will have this information on their homepages and some even offer to send them to you over the network.
After installing this I cannot send and/or receive MMSes
See above: You might need to configure APN settings. Check your provider.
After installing CM7 I cannot connect to my wifi-network
It might be related to what channels you have enabled on your phone. If your wifi network is using channel 12 or higher, you may need to enable those channels on your phone.
Go to Settings/Wifi & Network/Wifi settings/Advanced/Regulatory domain. And try not to be in violation of local laws with regard to channel usage
After installing CM7 I cannot connect to 802.1x EAP Wifi networks
This is seemingly an issue with lots of custom kernels and even some of the Samsung Firmwares. Yours truly can't get it to work at all, not on CM7 nor Samsung's JVB firmware.
Other people have reported that forgetting the network and adding it manually, by entering the SSID (with correct casing) and filling in all the details themselves have solved their problems.
YMMV
After installing CM7 I cannot charge my phone to 100%. WTH
No actual firmwares allows you to charge the battery to 100%, but stops a little bit before it reaches that point. This is to protect the battery from overcharging and should (in the long run) give you much better battery-life.
While stock firmwares from Samsung shows that the phone is 100% charged, this simply isn't true and is just UI-candy to make you all feel comfy. It's really charged to something around 94-98 percent.
So if your phone stops charging around that point, everything is normal, and the only new thing is that your phone is no longer lying to you
My GPS performance is terrible
Welcome to the world of Samsung Galaxy S GPS flux. Things you can try to improve on this includes the following:
- Install faster fix from Android market. Ensure you have the best time-server for your area chosen.
- You can also try AngryGPS, which siberian tiger was nice enough to upload.
- If all else fails, you can also try to flash a radio with a good GPS reputation. For flashing radios, see the appropriate section of this post. For some detailed post about the different radios eeyunopper posted this link and this link. (With ZSJPG I am getting decent result, YMMV)
Auto brigthness is kinda not-worky
You can try the presets outlined by Arkymedes right here.
How do I configure proxy settings?
(Thanks to runedrune)
If you are used to looking for proxy settings under Settings/Wifi & Network/Wifi settings/Advanced, you wont find it there.
Using either Launcher pro/ADW Launcher or another launcher which lets you create shortcuts to activities:
* Long hold on some open space on your launcher
* Select (Custom) Shortcut
* Select Pick your activity/Activities
* Scroll down to settings and click this
* Scroll down the long list and you should find proxy settings
You now have a shortcut to configure proxies as usual.
This "headphones mic on mute + instant music after call bug" is really irritating
If you are using Samsung or Nokia headsets, this is due to a problem on their part. See Arkanius' post right here.
Other things I should be aware of?
- Don't use 2G/3G data-switching. Period. At least not while the data-connection is active.
Not trough widgets, tasker or any other means. Seriously. Should you do this, you might end up having to restore nandroid backups or doing factory resets.
This report has details on more sophisticated ways of cleaning up which may lead to less data-loss, although not everyone can get it to work.
*subscribes*

Fake Notify - Fixes issue for users using AllianceROM where the Notification bar does not show up on boot.
Fake Notify Plus - Fixes issue for users using AllianceROM where the Notification bar does not show up on boot and also sometimes disappears during normal use at Random.
Crackle Stop - Automates TRB's method of fixing the problem of a crackling sound being produced along with notifications. Once installed run and you will need to grant SU access. You will then be presented with a Menu for your Normal 'Idle' mode, this should be the same as the awake idle mode set in STweaks, next you will be asked for an Alt Idle mode, this can be anything, just not the same as your normal mode.
Once set you will need to reboot for the fix to activate.
Once rebooted the app does what it needs to do over a 20 second period (not 20 seconds after the phone has booted as the app will probably be the last thing loaded - so to be safe I'd give it 2 or 3 minutes). You then need to let your phone get into Deep Sleep so leave it for a bit and then after that all should be OK.
Note this is not a one off fix, this process will run on each boot but you do not need to rerun the App unless you want to change the Normal Idle mode.

Alliance Rom FAQ
How do I install 7.02?
You need to uninstall the Rom Customiser that comes with the Rom then install the new one from play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ficeto.alliancemanager) once installed go into Rom Customiser and then OTA and select the updates.
OTA does not mean Samsung or System OTA.
How do I install 7.3? I can't find it in OTA.
7.3 is a full Rom and not an update. As such you need to download the full Rom zip from the OP on the Alliance Thread. Once downloaded flash it through Rom Customiser.
How do I flash the Stock Theme for 7.3?
During installation uncheck the box next to "Alliance Theme".
What can be installed through Rom Customiser?
Anything can be flashed through Rom Customiser as long as it is a Flashable zip, an Odin Tar file or an OTA download.
I have Downloaded a mod or update from OTA which I cannot flash through recovery. What am I doing wrong?
You need to flash these files through Rom Customiser which will then automate recovery. You cannot flash these independently.
What is the default blue colour used in the Rom?
Uncheck the Alpha box Colour Hex code #33b5e5
How can I get the Dandelion Lock Screen Wallpaper back?
Download it from here.

Changing the DPI
Change the Entire System DPI setting.
1. Open Root Explorer
2. Navigate to /System folder
3. Open the build.prop file
4. Scroll down to the 'Additional_build_properties' you are looking for the line
"ro.sf.lcd_density = 240"
The default value for the LCD density is 240, the lower the number the more on
the screen. 200 is a good value to start with.
Save the change.
5. Reboot phone for the change to become effective.

Since I requested this tweak, I would give a simple explanation on what it does and how to use it.
When your connecting to a ipsec vpn using wifi and having trouble browsing to your internal websites eventhough your connected to it. You can ping your internal network but the trouble is no browsing. The solutions are:
1. Tell your System Administrator to change the ip tcp adjust-mss to a lower value, in my case I used 1000 using 1841 cisco router. This prevents the packet from fragmentation. Packets when fragmented were dropped thus resulting to no browsing. If the Sys Ad refuses to do so because this may cause some issues to Windows users (browsing may slow a little bit), your best solution is to install this tweak.
2. This MTU mod sets the MTU value of your payload to 1300 via tunnel interface of your android device this avoiding packet fragmentation resulting to packet being allowed to pass through the tunnel interface going to ipsec vpn router.
How to use it:
1. Download the vpnc widget from playstore. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.mjm4456.vpncwidget&hl=en
Configure your credentials. Then connect.
2. Once the vpnc widget has been connected open this app. Then you should have browsed your internal network.
Note: This tweak is needed only for wifi connections. If your using carrier data, then this is not needed anymore.
Please give thanks to the creator of this app.
I just gave him the code and he did all the stuff in making this app looks nice and easy to use.
Big credit to OP, trevfee and thanks to my neatrom family (Many40, Mr.Greg, ESD and others who helped me finding the code)

IMEI Recovery
IMPORTANT
FOR THIS PROCESS TO WORK YOU MUST HAVE A GOOD COPY OF YOUR /efs DIRECTORY TAKEN PRIOR TO THE PROBLEM HAPPENING. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECOVER.
DISCLAIMER - THIS IS AN AMALGAMATION OF IDEAS, PROCESSES AND GUIDES FOUND ONLINE ALONG WITH MY OWN MODIFICATIONS AND PROCESSES THAT I HAD TO MAKE TO GET THE PROCESS TO WORK FOR ME.
ALTHOUGH I HAVE PERFORMED THIS PROCESS IN FULL AND IT HAS WORKED FOR ME I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR DATA LOSS THAT ARISES FROM FOLLOWING THIS GUIDE. BY USING THIS GUIDE YOU ARE ACCEPTING ANY AND ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL ACTIONS AND THEIR RESULTS.
IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT PERFORMING THIS PROCESS WILL INVALIDATE YOUR WARRANTY BUT IF YOU ARE ALREADY ROOTED AND RUNNING CUSTOM SOFTWARE THEN YOU HAVE ALREADY INVALIDATED YOUR WARRANTY ANYWAY.
This is a common problem that usually occurs when a problem is encountered flashing a file from Recovery. Please take the precautions listed below, it will save you a lot of trouble should you ever suffer from this problem.
Backup Process
There are 3 ways that I use to back up the /efs directory.
These are:
1 - Manually copy /efs to your SD Card and make another copy somewhere safe (Computer, Dropbox, etc).
2 - Use HC-kTool to make a backup image of your /efs directory.
3 - Use Galaxy S Unlock AND GSII Repair to make backups of your original /efs directory (These are both the same but by doing both you have two copies of /efs available should you need it).
All Apps available from the Google Play Store or can be downloaded in the AppPack from here
At the end of this process you will have 4 copies of your /efs directory on your SD Card as well as any dulicates you created externally in step 1. This might seem like overkill but trust me taking 5 minutes creating these will save you hours and possibly quite a bit of money in repair costs in the long run should you ever need to recover!
Now you have your backups lets hope that you never need them, but should you then...
Recovery Process
Acknowledgements
Based on original post by XDA Member vaskodogamagmail with more detail and modifications to make process work added by me.
Original Post
Symptoms
You may have one, some or all of the following:
No Signal
Emergency Call Only
No Network
IMEI 004999010640000
IMEI 000000000000000
IMEI
(To check your IMEI number either enter *#06# dial into the dialer or check in Settings, Phone Information)
Prerequisites
Rooted Phone
Try the following processes in order until the problem is resolved.
Method 1:
Open HC-kTool and choose "Restore efs from backup (DANGEROUS!)" then choose "Restore IMG". Once completed you will be prompted to reboot. Perform Reboot and if all has gone well you will have a working phone again.
Method 2:
Open Galaxy S Unlock app and select "Restore saved EFS Folder". This will come up with a response saying "Done". Reboot and see if your phone is working again.
Method 3:
Open GSII_Repair and perform Options 2 and 3. Your phone will reboot. Once it has rebooted see if your phone is working.
Method 4:
Open GSII_Repair and select "Restore saved EFS Folder". This will come up with a response saying "Done". Reboot and see if your phone is working again.
Method 5:
This is the last chance (and the one that after tweaking to what you see below worked for me).
You will Need the following:
Stock GB ROM
Insecure Kernel
ODIN
Quick Root
All of these can be downloaded in the IMEIFix.zip which can be downloaded from here.
Android SDK and ADB instaled on your Computer or a Terminal App on your Phone (Personally I prefer ADB from Computer but you choose whichever you are most comfortable with).
We are going to restore your phone to as close to original stock a possible. No data wil be removed from your SD Card(s) but all installed apps, customisations, ROMs and Kernels will be removed. Please backup everyting you need before runnng this process.
If you are able to make a Nandroid Backup of your Rom you will be able to recover this at the end of the process.
Open ODIN
In Options select "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time".
Select the following files from the "OriginalRom" folder on your computer:
Bootloader -> KERNEL_I9100XEKDB_CL161513_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
PDA -> CODE_I9100XEKDB_CL161513_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
Phone -> MODEM_I9100XXKDH_REV_02_CL995882.tar.md5
Reboot your phone into Download Mode (Hold down Home, Volume Down and Power when turnng on).
When in Download Mode connect to Computer via USB.
You will get a Ready message in one of the top boxes in ODIN. When you have this press the Start button.
After a while your phone will reboot and load up into it's Stock setup.
Configure the settings and then Power down the Phone.
Once Powered down go into Download Mode again (same process as above).
In ODIN press Reset.
Set the same options as before.
This time only set the Bootloader box. Select the file from the "InsecureKernel" folder on your computer - NOTE Insecure means that it is able to be rooted, not that there is a security issue with using it. We will be replacing this later anyway.
Check you have the Ready in the top box in ODIN and press Start.
Once finished your phone will reboot to stock again. IMPORTANT - Disconnect the USB cable before proceeding.
Go to Settings, Applications, Developer Options.
Turn ON "USB Debugging".
Connect USB cable to Computer and Phone.
Open "Samsung Quick Root"
Select "Reboot Device When Finished"
Press "Root Device"
Some text will scroll on the screen and then phone will reboot.
This will have installed SuperUser, Busybox and Rooted your phone.
Install a Root capable Explorer app, I used Es File Explorer, either download from the Play Store or you can install if from the Apps folder of IMEIFix downloaded above.
Open a Command Prompt on your Computer
Enter the following commands:
adb shell
su
busybox umount -l /efs
exit
exit
Using your chosen exporer delete the efs folder from the root of your phone.
Reset the phone, after that open your explorer again and browse to the Root, the efs folder should have recreated and will contain files. These are new and are system generated.
Go to the efs folder using your chosen explorer, and delete "nv_data.bin" and "nv_data.bin.md5".
Go to the working back up of your efs folder on your SD Card, copy the "imei" folder to the efs folder at the root of your phone, then again go to the backed up efs folder on your SD Card and copy the "nv_data.bin" file to your efs folder at the root of your phone using your explorer. Once you have copied this file, please rename the new file to "nv_data.bin.bak".
Make another copy of the "nv_data.bin" file in the backed up efs folder on your SD Card and paste this into the efs folder at the root of your phone again.
On your Computer open a command prompt and enter the following commands:
adb shell
su
chown 1001:radio /efs/nv_data.bin
Reset your phone.
You should now have your Original IMEI, check this by dialing *#06# call into the dialer. If you have the correct IMEI then you are done. You can either reinstall your usual ROM, Apps, Kernel etc manually or restore an existing backup.
If you need to install a Recovery with CWM (to restore backups or install new ROMs and Kernels then please follow these steps:
Install Mobile Odin from ChainFire from the Play Store (or if you are an XDA user you can download from here)
If you have used the XDA version you will also need the eu.chainfire.mobileodin.flashkernel.i9100.v2-1 apk file, this is in the IMEIFix download above in the Apps folder.
Copy the Kernel-V7.tar file from the CWMKernel folder in IMEIFix to your SD Card.
Open Mobile Odin and from there open the Kernel-V7.tar file. This will flash Dorimanx 7.45. If you now boot into recovery you can flash what you need to in the usual way.
By following the process above you will likely find that the Triangle Alert is now on your screen when booting yor phone indicating that your bootloader has been modified. Although this makes no functional difference to your phone you can remove this alert by installing TriangleAway from the Play Store (or if you are an XDA user you can download from here. This will reset the flash counters in your phone and remove the warning.
If you still have the wrong or no IMEI then you will need to seek further help.
There is no obligation but if this guide has just saved your phone and you feel you would like to show your appreciation there is a "Donate" button on the left, please feel free to use it.
YouTube fix
The problem is actually with Xlory's Inverted Play Store so far a fix had not been released by Xlory so we have to use the following workaround based on suggestion from Nos_20 and modifications from Andreas75k.
Fully uninstall YouTube, firstly from the Play Store or Settings, Applications and then from Rom Customiser (Manage System Apps).
In Rom Customiser go to OTA then select and flash Stock Play Store.
Goto Settings, Applications and wipe cache, data and any updates for Google Play Services and Google Play Store.
Reboot to recovery.
Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache.
Reboot.
Once rebooted reinstall YouTube in Rom Customiser and update through the Play Store or just install directly from the Play Store but obviously it wont be a system app.
That's it, all should now work.
Key here is: don't use any modified versions of Google Play Services, Google Play Store or YouTube, only STOCK.

Installation instructions
NOTE: You must perform a factory reset before install by wiping cache and data.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 1
Download the TWRP image for the Z3+ and unpack it
Download zROM+ and the zROM+ md5 file
Run a command shell
Code:
c:>adb reboot bootloader
c:>fastboot boot recovery.img
c:>adb push zrom-v1.1.zip /sdcard/zrom-v1.1.zip
c:>adb push zrom-v1.1.zip.md5 /sdcard/zrom-v1.1.zip.md5
The file is big, so it will take 5 or more minutes to complete the upload. If you're impatient put your external SD in a card reader and load it that way.
Step 2
In the interface for TWRP, navigate to Wipe and perform a factory reset
In the interface for TWRP, navigate to Install
Click install, select zrom-v1.1.zip from the internal storage
Swipe to flash
Read and follow the instructions
Reboot when complete
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The first boot is painfully slow. It takes about 10 minutes, so just be patient. It will stay in the blue booting screen for a long time. This is normal. Do not reboot your phone. Just wait and it will eventually boot up. You can always rerun the installer to flash additional Google Apps. If you do so, be sure to deselect the install ROM option and do not do a factory reset.
Notes
This ROM has a kernel that supports runtime SELinux mode changes. The mode change is accomplished through a script /system/su.d/permissive.sh, which sets SELinux to permissive mode at boot time. If you wish to run Xposed, you must run SELinux in permissive mode. Failure to do so results in multiple system applications force closing at startup and a device that is locked up.
If you don't run Xposed I recommend that you keep SELinux in enforcing mode. To do so, go to Settings-->About and click multiple times on the Build number until it tells you that Developer mode is activated. When developer mode is activated, back out and select the Developer option and enable USB debugging. Now run an adb shell and remove the permissive mode script. Grant permission for USB debugging when the prompt comes up
Code:
c:>adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ su
Wait for the SuperSU prompt and grant permission to adb
Code:
[email protected]:/ # mount -o rw,remount /system
[email protected]:/ # rm -f /system/su.d/permissive.sh
[email protected]:/ # reboot
If you choose not to install any of the Google apps, a minimum core Google framework will be installed anyway. This includes Google framework, GmsCore, Google Play, Google Login Services, Google Contacts and Backup Sync, SteupWizard and OneTimeInitializer that runs after first boot. Apart from the Play store app and the first time setup apps, the rest of these apps are not visible in your app drawer.
While I have made every effort to test this ROM in a variety of different install scenarios, it is a beta ROM and you may experience some bugs. I make no warranty as to its fitness for purpose or its performance and you use it at your own risk.
PLEASE SEE NOTE BBELOW IN POST TWO ON USING XPOSED FRAMEWORK
This ROM now supports booting directly into TWRP recovery mode. To access recovery mode, power on the phone and when you see the yellow LED illuminate press the down volume button once or twice.

Offhand, I'd say it's unlikely. Sony has a different firmware for this phone.
I'm unlikely to support a device I don't have access to. Apologies.
Works great thanks. Is there any way to make a sound mod to increase headphones volume?

You're installing on a Z3+ e6553 single sim version, right? My wipes are pretty quick too....once the wipe is done, go to the mount option in recovery, mount the filesystems and make sure they're empty (well, they will contain a lost+found folder for the ext4 filesystems and your sdcard contents for the /data filesystem).
Permissions are unlikely to be the problem. The ROM is untarred from an ext4 filesystem copy, so original filesystem permissions are preserved. It also installs an updated file_contexts and does a selinux restorecon to make sure selinux contexts are correct...

* Wipe of Dalvik Cache and Cache not demanding but may help with some random minor bug that show after a update
** Gapps not demanding the ROM works perfect without it but if you plan to use gapps you need to flash it on a clean install with the ROM, In a ROM updates a "dirty flash" if you already have gapps always flash gapps again with the ROM update
Changelogs:
LineageOS - 17.1 source and Quark Changelog (Click Here)
What's working :
Everything minus VoLTE support for XT1254 (1225 doesn't have this featuring).
Known Android 10 issues :
Not PRE-ROOTED, ROOT solution is available read this thread second post
Old issue maybe resolved on latest TWPR update but... TWRP may not be able to backup or decrypt data encrypted on Oreo or Up: no know workaround, one day TWRP will support it.
Can't swipe/draw the pattern in lock screen : Screen lock pattern is set with the extra option of patterns "Directly show pattern view" and ambient display enable all at the same time, will bug ambient display for the wave or pick featuring of gestures, this doesn't bug when you received a notification, disable one or the other until the bug is fixed.

Last Updated Check Changelog click here
Below are some of the helps and or workarounds for the most occurring issues.
ROOT Use Magiks
GPS / Radio:
Changing/Updating the ROM may cause GPS lock problem, there is two separated help
option 1) Install "GPS Status & Toolbox" , open the app, slide the left option and open "Manage A-GPS state" click in Reset, after repete the process and now click in Download, close the app after receive the OK, wait a few seconds and try a gps lock using the same app, if that doesn't help try again after a reboot, if that doesn't help go to option 2 below
option 2) If the above doesn't help you can try to erase all the radio status
Erase the radio status also applies to the case you have No SIM Card or no Cell Signal level in status bar.
To erase the radio status is very simple just flash this zip "Clean_modem_status.zip" via TWRP no wipe is need, is also recommended to try option 1 after this if you flashed because of a GPS problem.
If after flashing the cleaner you find any problem related to lost of signal, re-try the flash of "Clean_modem_status.zip", if the problem persist, flash latest radio.img version via fastboot (aka "via bootloader")
Code:
mfastboot flash radio radio.img
find the radio.img inside the stock ROM xml.zip, some xml.zip and fastboot for windows can be found here (click here)
Random Power off or reboots?
To identify if the device random reboot or simply power it self off there is two ways.
1) If after the device goes black you can't power it up again without plunging the charger, then is because the battery is dead, even if yours battery had good % left before it shutdown yours battery is probably damage doesn't matter if the device/battery is new a battery can go bad simply by charging the device wrong, a wrong way to do it is let the device constantly go bellow 20% as low you let it get worse yours battery will be with time.
2) Check the boot reason prop "ro.boot.bootreason" :
Using the app BHB27 Kernel Audiutor > logs section > search in a log > mark getprop > search keyword "reason".
If the result is power_key_press the device didn't reboot it power off.
Code:
[ro.boot.bootreason]: [power_key_press]
On this case, is recommended to set the battery "Automatic power saver" from default 15% to a higher value then the one yours device is power it self off.
-----------------------------
If the result is reboot the device reboot it self
Code:
[ro.boot.bootreason]: [reboot]
On this case, is recommended to just share a log, do as is recommended on next post.
Bootloop to TWRP after a Factory Reset (Settings/System/Reset option/Factory reset):
This is a Nougat and up problem, it only happens if you are using a TWRP from the official site (with is not update to properly support Nougat and Up Android versions) or a old version of TWRP, to fix it just flash latest MOD TWRP version from the TWRP xda.
TWRP xda thread Click Here
Pictures access, view, sharing or related:
One thing that I notice regarding permission is if you have a app that access a folder that was created in older OS this app may be able to access this folder but not fully access the files like the below example.
You take a picture or a screenshot and can't see or share it with some apps, the simple fix is just erased/delete the folder with that problem for example the DCIM (camera folder) and or Pictures (Screenshot) folder under Main storage (or any folder were you face a picture or file access related problem), of course you can backup the files to another folders first using a file explorer that can see the files (maybe necessary one with ROOT access), then let the OS service recreate the folder, it will automatic recreates after you take a new picture or screenshot (or manually make the new folder if is a custom folder mane by you), test to see if the problematic app can see after.
USB OTG player:
On latest android version Nougat and above, to play anything from a USB OTG device is needed proper permission, that is not simple to give as the app must request it to be given, so to play anything from a USB driver find a app like this one
VVM XT1254 only
VVM app (VVM may only be accessible via play with the link, click here and chose open with play), VVM may not work correctly google has it on version is free and seems to work 100% Google voice, the in the phone app of b this ROM also has a dedicated option for voice calls
Bug report are welcome, make with in the most accurate description possible, do not spare words, screens and logs, a bug that I can't understand or reproduced I can't fix.
Always post a bug with @fgl27 and a log .zip generated by the app
BHB27 Kernel Adiutor > Logs > One click all Logs to a ZIP (ROOT is needed for this)...
Even after a random reboot share a log
If is a Reboot/Power off related bug make the log as soon the device finishes boot up
duplicated
Really nice! Getting a battery replacement for my Droid so that it can work as a backup phone. Tysm for Android 10!
Won't stay on long enough to do hardly anything. Reboots into recovery on its own, thankfully. What am I missing?

The odd thing is what is doing the call to recovery? it doesn't just go to recovery because of a fail to boot something is calling it.
Maybe a problem on data partition don't know but is a odd behavior.
Try to log that, adb is enable but you must give permission connect the usb cable during boot try to connect "adb shell" will refuse as is missing permission, as soon as the device finishes boot do again "adb shell" give the permission, next boot after the bootanimation start, you will be able to "adb shell" but before enable ROOT for adb "adb root" then after connect "adb shell" open two windows one do a "logcat" another "dmesg -w"
share the log information.
Thanks / Flashlight issue
Thank you for your invaluable contributions. Keep up the good work!
So far, the ROM has been working fine except for two bugs: the flashlight function is not working (I took a photo with flash so the leds on the device are OK), and the home/launcher app (Trebuchet) keeps crashing.
Kind regards!

Yoiks! Not quite that tech savy. Even tried after a full wipe & zip-by-zip install. If I have to be happy with RR Pie, so be it. Not all that bad. My Turbo has some miles on it, rebuilt twice already. Got one last battery & display in the wings. Best, last phone Motorola made. Don't waste your time, further, on what's likely a hardware flaw.

Looks like I wasn't. I thought 3.2.3mod4 was the last best available.
Update: Um, yeah, still no luck. Used 331m1. My Turbo has a weird glitch, apparently. [emoji34]

Thank you for your invaluable contributions. Keep up the good work!
So far, the ROM has been working fine except for two bugs: the flashlight function is not working (I took a photo with flash so the leds on the device are OK), and the home/launcher app (Trebuchet) keeps crashing.
Kind regards!

twrp doesn't affect this I tested And 10 on it before making 331 was all fine...
does the custom kernel I share works for you on Pie?

Overall answer; I don't know. I've stopped trying for now. It doesn't stay on long enough to access the logs. There's a pop up saying a certain file has stopped working. I'll look into that this weekend and post that information. I can only think that it's something to do with my phone's Hardware, one small minor flaw is screwing the whole thing up.
Update: well, I had a little time to kill. I reinstalled just the ROM only. 'com.android.phone keeps stopping' Would not having a SIM card installed be related to this error?
