I flashed the Nakyup ROM and I must say I'm not too impressed with it. There is a noticeable amount of lag when I scroll through the pages. I didn't do a Factory Reset as stated in the walkthrough... so would that be responsible?

I tried flashing the Tegrak kernel using Odin. I thought I did everything correctly... and nothing. The lagfix couldn't be installed :(

Can anyone help me? Thanks.

Nakyup ROM has its own kernel. Maybe overwriting it with Tegrak kernel is not a good idea. There is lag fix tool existing in Nakyup. Please check the link here:

The problem should be due to your installation procedure , if you did a CLEAN installation (meaning you had removed your earlier installation, undo lag fix , undo ext 2 etc) and formatted your SD cards and factory reset ...there should be no problem, since other members on this forum have no such complaints about Nakyup

try using one click lag fix to see if you can remove the earlir lagfix and ext 2 http://www.4shared.com/android/Tayy-ix7/OCLF.html


Failing which do a clean install

Hey dude, glad to have you aboard!
For the Nakyup site, you have to get to level 5 first, in order to have access to the ROMS and such.
Just keep clicking on a bunch of the links to level up.....You have registered?
You also need a Korean ID to register, I used my girlfriends....

Thanks, you gave me an idea... in on lev 5 now.

Yeah, I've perused the site for about a week now, dont have time to click my way to level 5, I wanted to donate and skip the BS, but there's no way to make contact with Admins on my current level. Have you seen the theme patch, I see they have an ICS theme theme available, and using G/translate Ive read that other users had the same problem and that currently only the original theme is supported... any ideas.
Another question, If and when I switch to EX4 format would I have any problems copying music to my 32G m-SD card...
Last thing, I've tried to connect with KIES after flashing Nakyup, but I get a connection error- thats a not a big deal, dont need KIES really- just asking.

Thank you for digging Nakyup site. I will wait for your new news about the patches then.

The lagfix only formats /data, /system(, and /cache when using Tegrak). You can still use the other parts of the internal and external SD card normally.

Kies does not recognize most of custom ROMs I think.

Well like its written, the rom is supposed to enable 160 char SMS but i cant download it because the server is too damn slow. If someone has it then please give comments if it works or not and if it works please upload it to 4shared.

I read that post where a member has given a link to download framework.jar and says something about 160 char SMS and deodexing firmware. I downloaded that file, deodexed Nakyup WC13 firmware and copied that file but it doesnt do anything. Dont know what the problem is.

I checked it and it WORKS! :) You can send 160 char SMS, also more than 160 Char :)

BUT.... the performance is not so good, Quadrant Advanced 2.0 score is only 1200, it was 1700+ with Nakyup. Going to try using Nakyup Kernel and files with this one to try and get the performance up.

Great collection bro, but I have no idea what above can do.. appreciate if u cud add a small description of 2-3 words.., if its possible...

thanks, this compilation is meant for developers, mostly framework and UI files to look at, also included in the stock apps

and guys, if u are using Stock WC13, its the best among All stock roms.. further more, best for battery.. i'v got only 4% drop overnight..( 10HRS :-D ) in flight mode though..

agreed, the samsung developers have fine tuned the WC13 for best performance without compromising any other capabilities and I am pretty pleased with the stock rom performance. All WC13 customs roms are just a modification of this stable stock rom .

can you tell me about theme galaxy s2 wc13. I want install on my phone nakyup g4.4 turbo real.

download Galaxy S2 theme pack for WC13 http://www.4shared.com/zip/ybALxvQb/GalaxyS2_Theme_WC13.html

Galaxy S2 Note theme for WC13 http://www.4shared.com/zip/xMpvJyM0/GalaxyS2_Theme_WC13_note_.html

you need to need to be very careful here, one of the reasons why Nakyup developers have omitted sounds and themes in their rom could be due to lack of rom space.

Always backup before you venture into themeset.

    efs problems and solutions

    efs folder is found in your root of your Internal Phone memory, which contains encrypted information with regards to your phone identity, passwords, baseband etc

    This folder can get corrupted or deleted when we Flash a custom rom...as many have experienced causing them to experience any of this

    1) Corrupt or incorrect ( FAKE) IMEI number. (International Mobile Equipment Identity)

    2) No Network and Signal ( calls, sms and mobile Internet not working)

    3) No base Band or Unknown Baseband

    4) Sim card lock missing

    5) Undermentioned appearing in red on your desktop after phone boots up normally
    HW: Not Active
    BOOT: SHW-M110S Vj04.1944
    PDA:SHW-M110S Vj04.1944
    Phone: M110S.VI27.0941.ST


    6) Undermentioned appearing when you try to boot
    E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)
    E: check_selective_file:Can´t mount /efs


    7) Undermentioned appearing when you try to boot
    E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)
    install_application_for_customer:Can´t mount /efs
    copy application failed.


    8) Undermentioned appearing when you try to boot
    E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)
    E: multi_csc: Can´t mount /efs
    Multi-csc applied failed.


    9) Undermentioned appearing when you try to boot
    E: failed to mount /dev/block/stl3 or
    E: failed to mount /dev/block/bml3 corrupted



    Hence DO YOU WANT TO RISK IT? by not making a backup of this important file , which can cause any of the above problems?

    You guessed it, the solution is to backup BEFORE flashing anything .

    How ?

    Number of ways

    1) S2 repair or Nitrility or GPS AIDS apps from google or all this

    2) You can use an application Like EFS Pro developed by an XDA member lyriquidperfection

    3) Or use a Root Explorer or any file manger with root permissions, to Zip it and save it in another location

    4) Use ADB to copy to your SD card than move it to a safe location in your PC.

    adb shell
    su
    cp -r /efs /sdcard/efs
    exit
    exit


    Remedies for those who have a efs backup

    If you Have a Backup and you want to restore it, this is one method

    1) Download Root Explorer, or Xplore, or any root browser from Play Store and use it to
    2) Search you internal SD card for sdcard/backup/efs or any other backup you have for your efs
    3) Copy nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 paste them (means overwrite existing files) into /efs in your Internal Phone memory
    4) Fix permissions by Click on efs folder and keep it pressed to open the menu and click on permissions and set them to rw_r_r_ ( Owner = read & write - Group = read only and Others = Read only), after this Save using menu and exit using menu
    5) Power down phone and reboot into recovery and wipe cache before rebooting phone to get back your original IMEI

    Another method Here or you can use the restore function in the app that you used to back it up

    If restoring the efs folder or you have a nv_data.bin backup but if you write nv_data.bin or .nv_data.bak it's being deleted on every boot, than follow this [GUIDE] how to get IMEI to stick across reboots to make it stick.

    In the event you have Failed to SAVE it and now would like to solve these problems

    Following remedies available for those who DO NOT have a Backup,

    Download EFS Folders for modification and restoration My Android Collection

    These methods had worked for some but not for others.

    1) Flash a stable stock ROM preferably an earliest version
    i9000 use JVU without repartition or JVZ or JPU ( Froyo)
    M110S use Eclair DG 23
    or
    2) In recovery mode , wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. Then reboot
    or
    3) Delete efs folder (by using root explorer), clear EFS (using Odin) and flashing a new ROM.
    or
    4) Replacing keystr file ( If missing) in efs > imei folder
    or
    5) For Unknown Baseband just install KIES and then connect Phone to it...
    and now Baseband will be correctly detected


    Other methods deleted by Mod
    [highlight]Mod Edit: While I understand that the purpose of this guide is to help those who have lost their IMEI's while flashing ROMS, this opens up a whole new can of worms as far as what can be done with it. The outcome is illegal in most countries in fact. Sorry.[/highlight]

    Final Solution:-

    When NOTHING works and its going to drive you nuts, just walk down to your nearest Phone repair shop, find out how much they will charge for using their Riffbox/z3x/spt/octopus box to fix the IMEI, and it can be resolved in a few minutes when the problem is software related.

    IF it is Hardware related than it could be due to base-band problem and may need an IC replacement to resolve.

    to verify do the following test

    type *#06# , and IF you get message "imei null" or imei starts by 0049XXXX or 00000 it should be resolved by software .
    but IF nothing is shown when you type *#06#, that is a hardware problem or look at attached picture below.
    .


    You can do a search on this forum to see the rest of the problems and remedies associated with EFS, but seriously .....
    .DO YOU WANT THIS PROBLEM?:(

    SO BACKUP and STORE your IDENTITY :)

    ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR EFS FOLDER BEFORE FLASHING

    [Noob Guide] Flashing and Recovery using Repair Kit on M110S

    Flashing can brick your phone but is needed to upgrade your phone or root your phone.
    So beware of the consequences arising out of using wrong firmware or incorrect flashing procedures or failing to observe requirements.


    Requirements :-

    1) PC or Laptop installed with samsung usb drivers

    2) Use Only Odin3 version 1.70 (attached below) on your PC/Laptop
    (later versions works but seem to have problem flashing Bootloader and gets stuck)

    3) The latest Stock ROM (WF07) or custom ROM (only M110S ROMS) of your choosing

    4) The Korean Galaxy S (SHW M110S) Note:- NOT OTHER MODELS OF GALAXY S

    (you can download your software requirements from Pit Stop)

    First and foremost you must UNDO any lagFix or partition you had made in your phone. Never wipe data if you had enabled Onenand Mode before! or you will end up in serious problems.

    Second in order to Save your important files like efs folder /backups/Images/ downloaded game content etc, use a file manager and copy paste them to your external SD card and remove your external SD card for safe keeping or use USB Mass Storage mode to save them to your PC/Laptop and remove external SD card

    Third you need to Format your Internal SD card by:- Touch Menu> settings> storage> unmount Internal SD card> Format and
    you need to Factory reset the phone as well by:- Touch menu> settings> Privacy> factory reset + wipe SD card

    Lastly Enable USB Debugging on Phone. Touch menu> Settings> Applications> Development>, You need to shutdown phone , boot-up into 3e recovery (press and hold Volume down + Home + Power) Here you need to wipe device as well as wipe partition and reboot.

    Make sure you have more than 50% Battery Charge and Never interrupt Flashing process and also Disable Samsung KIES when using Odin. Kill Kies.exe, KiesTrayAgent.exe, & KiesPDLR.exe using Task Manager on PC
    Again check battery Level every-time before you start​

    Above are REQUIREMENTS , you MUST and HAVE to fulfill them for a clean and safe flashing process


    Flashing Procedure :-

    1) Shut down your phone and remove battery, press and hold power button for a minute than reinsert battery

    2) Put your phone into download mode Like this (press home + power buttons)

    3) run Odin, select the file (rom or kernel you wish to flash) under PDA
    (do not tick or click any other button, restart odin if you made mistakes)

    4) Connect USB cable to PC and wait for Odin com port to turn yellow Like this
    (your phone should and must be recognized)

    5) Press start and wait for the green PASS signal from ODIN Like this
    (on a successful flash, to disconnect the USB cable)

    Its all over in five seconds for a kernel and a few minutes for a Rom, IF there were no problems

    attachment.php

    6) Once your phone has rebooted and you are full of joy, shut down the phone again insert your external SD card and reboot by recovery mode (Volume down + Home + Power) Here you need to wipe device as well as wipe partition and reboot for the phone to function without complications.

    Thats it, you are on the new firmware


    But.. in download mode it may get stuck or fail to complete, thats when you need to


    1) remove battery and reinsert

    2) you may notice your phone going into upgrade mode Like this or BSOD Like this and cannot go into download mode

    3) just run Odin (when you connect phone, Odin will recognize and turn yellow)
    If not press Home + Power to enter download mode

    4) Re-Flash again after making sure you had followed above procedure No. 3 to 6 , it should pass


    In the event It failed again and again, you may need to use the repair kit to resolve this problem you can download Recovery guide or attached below

    Using Repair Kit to Unbrick M110S​
    First stage :- For every Stage of Flashing RESTART ODIN and always use Fresh ODIN

    1) download repair kit and unzip it (you will have 6 tar files)

    2) put phone into download mode after battery pull

    2) run odin and select m110s.pit under PIT (Re-partion option will be automatically ticked)

    3) select M110S-PDA-PHONE-MOVI-REV03-DG23-1409-USER.tar.md5 under PDA

    4) connect phone and Press start (within 10 min your phone will reboot into Eclair Firmware)

    attachment.php

    you will have a fully working phone after this, only needs further updates, so continue to stage 2

    Second stage:-

    1) put phone into download mode after battery pull

    2) run odin select S1_KOR_DE09.pit under PIT (make sure you UNTICK the re-partition option in Odin)

    3) select M110S-BOOT-DG23-1409.tar.md5 under CSC

    4) connect phone and press start (within a few min phone will reboot)


    attachment.php


    Third Stage:-

    1) put phone into download mode after battery pull

    2) run Odin select M110S-NPS-IMAGE-REV03-DG23-1409-USER.tar.md5 under PDA

    3) selct M110S-PHONE-REV00-DG24.0151_Develop.tar.md5 under PHONE

    4) Connect Phone and select start ( within few min phone will reboot )

    attachment.php

    Fourth Stage:-

    Your Phone is currently running its FIRST out of the box Firmware used in 2010 , so now you need to upgrade to the latest 2012 Stock ROM or Custom ROM of your choice so repeat Flashing Procedure to upgrade to Latest Firmware

    IF unable to complete repair procedure

    Final Solution:-

    After receiving many requests for help, concerning stage 2 of the repair procedure, Failing or unable to complete as it gets stuck on Boot-loader upgrade or similar

    My advice is to proceed to stage 4, meaning you Flash a Latest stock or custom after the Eclair ROM, this will solve the issue and you would be able to USE the phone .

    so if it get stuck after stage 1 ( meaning phone functions using the oldest ROM ) , just continue to stage 4 and flash the latest ROM

    You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.

    MediaFire downloads

    Due to increasing Help requests via private messaging for other download links, had to setup mediafire links.

    Problem in MediaFire is that you cannot upload large files, as such had to be split up

    Hence the need for HJ split http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?tltdt45u4lt9ik4 to join split files

    Hi All,

    I'm going to put this upfront, because it's more important than the FAQ. Though there names get repeated a bit in this post, a major credit goes to Koe & Appagom for providing a lot of know-how, testing, information sharing and answers to questions users have posted here. This thread wouldn't be half as valuable without them. They should probably consider getting donate links, as it's the popular thing to do around here anyways, and I'd surely give them a few 원 for some soju or their beverage/food of choice for enhancing my phone experience. If they do decide to do something like that, I'd encourage you to do the same if you've used their methods or have even delayed taking action until you saw and read about their successes, trials & tribulations before proceeding with anything risky.

    Next important thing, please don't try to flash i9000 or any other SGS variant's firmware unless you are really prepared to experiment and fix your own problems.


    I'm writing this because perhaps it will help us SHW-m110s users spread information and have a point of reference, perhaps even bookmark, to spread information specific to our phone. Many of our questions just get posted in the most recently replied to thread with the word "Korean" in it. Part of my goal will also be to provide an area that Korean users who speak little English will be able to post and have a discussion. I will start that process on my own and enlist help from others I know. Please feel free to contribute in any way you can in any of these areas.

    With the Froyo update, I'd like to link to one of the more newsworthy and relevant development's due to increased system functionality we have at our disposal. Koe's guide on HowTo OpenVPN on the SHW-M110S (via StrongVPN and maybe others) can be found here Thanks KOE

    Tested on FroYo firmware versions DI29 and SK05

    Prerequisites:
    rooted (I also recommend SuperUser)
    busybox installed
    You understand the benefits of being able to connect to a stateside OpenVPN server.
    openVPN server account


    By request, other links to other guides or important topics available on XDA (or elsewhere) for the Galaxy S series if you haven't already come across them or just need a point in the right direction will be posted here. So, please let me know if you feel there is some other required reading before the test :p:

    [REF] BIG FAQ! {Flash/Root HOWTO} {ADB&Tutorials} {T&T} {FW-Guide} [MUST READ!]

    So, on with the FAQ/guide:

    *please note, this is a highly work-in-progress thread and is meant to be supplemental to, not in place of, better, more refined guides featured in the I9000 board. I started to plan this about 24 hours ago but there continue to be questions asked out of place so I'm rushing this a bit


    1. Where can I find ROM "(insert name)"?
    2. How do I update my phone?
    3. Can I put a ROM from the i9000 or another SGS family on this device?
    4. What frequencies does the cellular radio operate on?
    5. Does that make this a world phone?
    6. What limited functionality have users experienced overseas?
    7. How do I use Voice search in Korean?
    8. What else is different from the I9000 and other versions of the SGS?
    9. How do I root my phone?
    10. Where is Samsung Apps/Samsung Apps store?
    11. Are there any other ways to download games in Korea?
    12. Does SK Telecom support OTA updates?
    13. How do I work the DMB tuner?
    14. Why aren't the Secret Codes aren't working?
    15. Can I change the SMS character limit from 80 to 160 characters?
    16. Can we get Social Hub on the phone?
    17. I want the boot animation, do you have it?
    18. This FAQ is terrible, but I have a question...

    1. Where can I find ROM "(insert name)"?
      Koe seems to have kept a good list, here.
    2. How do I update my phone?
      Download Kies 2.0 here > click on the magnifying glass to the right of "Kies" > click on the white button "Kies 다운로드" > run the file > install > important set your location (left box) to Korea (I assume this to be the default) and your language (right box) can be the language of your choosing.
    3. Can I put a ROM from the i9000 or another SGS family on this device?
      This is one of those, 'if you have to ask...stay far far away questions'. Essentially you can come in here if you want a suggestion on what ROMs we might be using at the time, but no, for the love of God don't ask about i9000 or other device ROMs. If you know how to get yourself out of a pickle you wouldn't even need to ask, and if you try and fail you'll be asking us to get you out.

      Right now most users are content with z4mod, though there are some Korean ROMs that will be brought up from time to time.

    4. What frequencies does the cellular radio operate on?
      *To be updated*
    5. Does that make this a world phone?
      XDA users have reported some phone functionality in Russia and the Philippines. And know specific carriers in the US that the phone may/may not be compatible with, and if this will work for users in the EU. It seems that most people, if they have the right APN information, have gotten working this in a variety of countries though there will be at least some U.S. carriers that aren't available and potentially other non-standard frequency users. Still, if I were living in another country I'd probably only get this from a distributor who I'd be able to get a refund from if I couldn't get it working - anything else and you're doing so at your own risk.
    6. What limited functionality have users experienced overseas?
      User ulrauko has reported no data functionality on his device in Russia.
      It is recommended to work with a local carrier to get APN information to enter into your settings in order to maximize phone functionality. Some users may continue to have 3G problems after this, it might be possible to check setting "data roaming" in wireless & network > Mobile networks, but it'd be wise to check with your carrier to see what happens if you end up roaming onto another carriers towers.
      Users precious_mew has reported that he can't use MMS due to his carrier while chester_go has reported an inability for his phone to see his phone number requiring him to edit his phone number (to any number, not necessarily his actual number) to send SMS without any problems receiving SMS. Since then, Chester has been able to "program" his SIM by using the following method:
      -Removing the SIM card
      -Placing it in another phone that has the "My Number" option (I used an iPhone, heard that older Sony Ericssons work too.)
      -Entering my own number in international format (+63917~) (Prior to this, "Unknown" was also shown in the iPhone.)
      -Inserting the SIM back to the M110s.

    7. How do I use Voice search in Korean?
      Voice Search can be changed in settings>voice & input>voice recognition settings>lanugage...
    8. What else is different from the I9000 and other versions of the SGS?
      For now, I assume that we have different cellular radios. Also, we have a T-DMB tuner. We were given different stock software, originally missing Swype and a few other things, since then we have received Swpye through a firmware upgrade. We do utilize different firmware for our SHW-m110s than the typical international versions.
    9. How do I root my phone?


      Appagom's Evolving, and well well-supported, Post.

    10. Where is Samsung Apps/Samsung Apps store?
      The Samsung Apps store in Korea is a subset of SK Telecom's store, I highly doubt this would be accessible overseas as I think it's SIM card dependent. There you will find a full version of Asphalt for a free download. Please note, some games, even western games such as Farm Frenzy only have Korean language menu, while Asphalt has both English and Korean. I'd also guess there is no 24 hour return policy, but any confirmation would be great, and I have to presume that charges will be added to your monthly phone bill. *As of Froyo SK has partially, and poorly, integrated part of their(?) app store into the marketplace in a separate tab called "SKT"
    11. Are there any other ways to download games in Korea?
      Being rooted will allow you to run MarketEnabler and fake a SIM code to be in one of a few countries. I don't think anyone on this thread knows the legality of such actions, so do so at your own risk.

      *Note, as of Nov 15th, the Froyo update fast web installer is not functional. Will update if there is a change and I remember. Also, see Koe's guide to getting VPN working which can give you access to location restricted apps.
      I hold out hope that fast web installer for AppBrain will be updated to work on the SGS, there are reports that some items such as GoogleEarth can be installed in this manner where users can't find the app in the marketplace.
      There are also always "other ways" amongst them there are 3rd party sites such as slideme.org where you can find both paid and free games (some of which might not be available in the marketplace due to developer preference and/or marketplace restrictions). Slideme will work direct on the phone and you can also use it on your PC to download and sideload apps. As a matter of fact, games can be found by developers here at XDA which can be sideloaded. If you root your phone you will, hopefully, be able to use market enabler to sign as though you aren't in Korea (use wifi + airplane mode) and be able to download games directly from the marketplace. Additionally there are always the less legitimate ways.
    12. Does SK Telecom support OTA updates?
      User akbk84 reported to me in August that he did receive an OTA udpate. However, this was weeks after I had received my first, and I was perhaps on my 3rd or 4th update by then. He She (my apologies :D) did, however, receive the most current update. I do not know what SK/Samsung plan going forward, perhaps just critical updates will be OTA. I personally have, and I kind of recall reading someone else might've, received an OTA camera update.

      Update: In the t-store there is an app called T-Upgrade, we believe it is supposed to give OTA updates to the phone. After downloading it didn't help me get the newest FW, so I'll post further information when I hear of a success story.

    13. How do I work the DMB tuner? The DMB tuner works best with the DMB antenna extended. Extend the DMB tuner, located on the top right of the phone above the power button.
    14. The secret codes were changed, or removed from, or broken during, an August firmware update. For now, we will keep a running list of working secrete codes here:

      TouchKey F/W Info - *#86824#
      - Has an "F/W Update" Button
      - Can set the "Menu" and "Back" key sensitivity

      SKT Admin menu (general settings, such as: network, system, sms, etc.)
      From the dialer enter: 319712358
      You will be prompted for a pasword: 774632

      thanks koe1974
    15. Can I change the SMS character limit from 80 to 160 characters?
      This seems to be a common question posed from people living outside of Korea. Handcent defaults to 160 characters before changing the message to an MMS, how this will affect your message setting and carrier costs have never been verified so please do some sort of conclusive test and update us. Within Korea, MMS/SMS have the same pricing and free allotment, so it doesn't seem to be necessary to have the 160 character difference, also I haven't heard anything about how this might affect the messages and how SKT would deal with and treat extra long SMS messages.
    16. Can we get Social Hub on the phone?
      As far as I know, no one has successfully extracted and loaded Social Hub onto our phones.
    17. I want the boot animation, do you have it?
      Yes, please go to this post for more information.
    18. This FAQ is terrible, but I have a question...
      Please ask, provide better answers, do whatever to help us improve our SHW-m110s experience.
    Thanks all!
