Default Samsung Galaxy Xcover S5690 ROM

Hey Guys,

I've been searching far and wide on the net, and i have serious problems with my S5690. The syndroms are that it reboots unprovoked, and it seriously P***** me off.

So i'm searching a clean Custom Rom based on Gingerbread, isn't there any out there, or someone has something I can do to gid rit of the problem??

The phone is rooted and that worked like a Charm, and i have uninstalled the Stock apps from Samsung, but the device still reboots at times??

Some days even 3-4 times!? :S

My Carrier is the danish Cellular carrier 3, and I have spoken with them, but the problem isn't from their side but Samsung that has messed something up with the stock ROM. I've been reading myself towards some sweedish sites that are experiencing same syndroms.

I really hope someone can help. :(

Hi,

My S5960 reboots too.
Super user doesn't work for my device to root it, what app did you used to root it?
Is there any progress?

Hey, I used a rooting tool from another thread here on xda and then I used the app superuser too administrate the apps which needs permissions. :)

Then too freeze and uninstall apps I used an app from market called app freezer.. Worked like a charm.. Working on a custom firmware too but I only just started..

;) I'll post the link to the rooting tool later.. Or you can search for it here on xda..

Default rom

So you did manage to root and run a custom rom? I would like to have something like cyanogen mod. My previous phone (htc hero) could be rooted only using super user.

Can you tell me how to start? and how is your Samsung gt-s5960 working at this moment?

I've rooted yes.

No I haven't been able to find a custom rom. ;)

But I have rooted the phone and it works perfectly, and without reboots since I uninstaled the stock apps.

Take the link I posted and then find the rooting file, and and place it on the root of the phone memory then reboot to recovery mode and apply manual update from sd.. Then after it installs reboot and then you have root permission.. ;)

Unhappy Almost the same prob here

Hi all im new here, but i read your thread about GT-S5690. I cant find any stock rom that it will accept? My phone is ROOTED but I cant read MMS directly and Music wont play from folders. I could be missing some APKs I know that.

I would like to RE-install original rom, and I CAN NOT do a reset tried that 100 times and the same broken rom installs then.?
