I had already tried --base 0x13600000 alone (found that in the 5660M open source release from Samsung, with the help of this guide) and that didn't work. Adding --pagesize 4096 fails with an error from my mkbootimg version, which might be an older version... I got it off the Darktremor ramdisk scripts package.

And to top it off, kernel.org is unavailable to download the AOSP source, which would yield a generic build of the latest mkbootimg version. (Anyone care to upload theirs?)

I'm also wondering, is a boot.img read off bml8 actually suitable for these modifications, versus a homemade build or official release?

Another idea I've been thinking about: have any of you tried getting rid of RFS and formatting /system in either ext4 or yaffs? Any performance to be gained by doing that?

Goodbye,

Darkshado

P.S. Waqasshahzad: could you remove/update the 5660M stock firmware from version 1 to version 2? V1 doesn't flash as-is in Odin because the system partition is incorrectly named. (See the early 5660M partition mapping posts for the whole story.)

Maybe you got the wrong mkbootimg? I'll upload mine later when i'm on my laptop...

--- edit ---

try this... http://dl.dropbox.com/u/30659702/Bootimgutils.tar.bz2

read the README first...

it works for me...

flash recovery

UPDATE :
•Fixed applying existing Update.zips that assume the device name is 'GT-S5660'.
•Format /sd-ext as ext2 as most ROMs don't support ext3/ext4.

Things tested and work:
•Backup / restore.

For Canada Bell Samsung Gio S5660M rooting and link2sd activation:

1. Flash with http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16963172&postcount=1 the V2 rom listed here using Odin method. This will root your phone

2. Flash http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16979810&postcount=548 SimpliGio+ using Odin multiple file method, SKIP updating the phone/modem module or it'll stop your phone from connecting to Bell/Telus. This step enables link2sd and gets rid of stock useless apps, while adding FM app.

3. Install stock Swype Program http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1239577 using Recovery zip file method, otherwise there's no access to new keyboards if you choose to install one later on

Now you'll have a S5660M rooted with Link2SD functioning :D

The problem with all the roms listed in the first post of this gigantic thread is that they contain a different modem code and it totally screws up the connection for Canadian carriers. Maybe someone can explain why. I spent 3 days here with hours of trail and error to get this far, haha.

I'm new at this and very confused, all I want is my radio tuner. Bell, you suck! Can you give me a little guidance? I don't understand a lot of the walkthrough's. I did the first step and rooted but when i go into the second stage and tried to install the zip from the SD card is gives me an error and aborts, Do I flash it through Odin? will it mess up my signal? Please help!

Thanks

Here's the stock FM radio app from the latest Euro/Asia 5660 ROM, deodexed and confirmed working on my 5660M.

On a more general note, take the time to research, read and understand what you're doing. Failure to do this significantly increases your odds of ending with a messed up phone... Feel free to ask more specific questions here.

Goodbye,

I've been installed A2SDGui and A2SD script on SimpliGio 1.2 then move Delvik cache to SD-EXT partition but I have "Not enough space" message.
I've tried clear or remove all apps then try again but it's same error.
How can I move Delvik cache to SD-EXT. I'm using S5660XXKQ3 with SimpliGio

KQG Request -
A2SD doesn't work, gives the issue 'not enough space'.
I've tried the Boot.img from Waqas, that was built for KQB, it does make A2SD work, but Wifi stops working after that.

Can someone pls send me a hacked boot.img update for KQG? Thanks!!

    Common Issues and possible solutions / tips and tricks

    Common Issues and possible solutions / tips and trick

    shutdown/freeze randomly in your pocket

    . Change your Wifi sleep policy to Never, put a small paper behind the battery some times battery gets loose , if problem stays fectory reset and install latest firmware and fectory reset yet again ..

    rooted phone and upgragde gingerbread,but still having problem about bootanimated

    Install Root explorer and you need to select "remount as r/w".

    command on adb shell to replac framework-res.apk?
    #mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

    then:
    cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

    #reboot (bootloop posibility if framework doesnt match)

    Poor Battery Life
    Install latest firmware , turn of wifi when not using , try to charge with wall Charge some times data cable don't charge the properly, And don't forget to clean Ram after using apps , it helps to reduce load on device.

    Compass doesn't work anymore
    Its a bug , there is no solution availble yet , as soon something comes out i'll post here.​

    Is there a possibility to overclock samsung galaxy Gio
    Nop overclocking isn't working with gio yet.

    What is the code for fectory reset
    Put your phone in recovery mode (By holding home button+Power button) and select fectory reset option from there or if your phone is on use this code
    *2767*3855# Fectory reset will remove all your data from the phone, apps , gallery , contacts and messages be sure to make a backupHow to check your firmware version
    *#1234# OR Goto setting<About<Scroll down and check
    How to put Gio to downloading mode to flash a firmware by ODIN
    shut down your phone , hold home button+power button+volume down button altoghether.

    How to Restart your phone (without turn on and off)
    Volume down + Volume up + Power button hold untill phone goes off it will turn back again itself.. Or use adb , or terminal emulater , type su then type reboot
    How to Remove boot up sound??
    Delete file /system/etc/poweron.ogg using root explorer.

    What is a2sd darktremor and why should i install it ???
    a2sd darktremor let you install your all apps on sd card , so in this way internal memory stays empty and phone perform better than stock rom...

    I want to Flash my phone , What should i do after and before???
    you always have to fectory reset before and after flashing , when you done flashing you need to root(most of custom roms are already rooted so skip to next step) now you have to enable (a2sd daktremor if its not enabled in a custom rom you have to do it manually) . thats it , now you can start restoring your data , and install apps ...
