Buenísimo! Ya te mandé la solicitud. A ver si podemos generar algo para este cel que la verdad me parece que está bastante bueno. Es muy nuevo, así que seguro en un tiempo se va a sumar más gente. Voy arrancando por instalar el SDK de Android, como para empezar... Sé algunas cosas de Linux, de probar Ubuntu, compilé alguna vez un kernel de Gentoo cosas básicas pero algo manejo. Igual esto creo que es como un mundo nuevo para mi, je. Che, no hay problema de postear en español en el foro? Habría que ver, para que no nos llamen la atención...

sweet...:D
looking forward for gingerbread
is honeycomb useable for this device?, i mean the spec is kind of low

btw i feel like the screen is too small or is it the resolution that is too low, so the info that's displayed on the screen is very limited
did you ever think of changing the screen density?

i know that there's an apps for this
i've read some dude tried to install lcd density changer apps on his i5510 , then he told not to becoz it's not compatible with i5510 and he had to send his phone to service centre becoz of that

Yes it was joke:)

But I fixed my power supply so my laptop is back online, but I don't know how long :( , because I have random hangs(Ram is ok and this is not connect with power supply).

This weekend I'll be too busy to do anything with rom. I'm still thinging how flash new recovery. I will release my patch for buildsystem and instructions how to build and install when it works and won't brick your phone.

If you have any question to me about porting and phone post them in this thread.

Guys to be helpful to all, you need to use english to communicate. You may talk privately in your own language -- please not on the forum.

Ok guys. Little news.
I tried contact with Koushik Dutta, author of clockwork recovery. If anybody can loan him his galaxy 551, he will able to make/build recovery. Here are any necessary information.http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/10/porting-clockwork-recovery-to-new.html
Maybe I will done recovery, but I don`t know how long it will take for me.
I`m getting tried trying flash and getting errors without any success.
If I anything fail, I will go for plan B, write new bootloader, based on uboot which allow me to use mtd partitions and ext4/ubifs/yaffs2 filesystem, but this option will take a lot of time and money(buying jtag).

I have good news and bad news.
Today I was able to successful flash custom image using very dirty/bad solution, but it work. It require odin, and data.rfs and system.rfs from any Samsung rom. I will write how to later.
Now bad news.
Image didn`t work because i used boot.img from Samsung rom. I think the initramfs was wrong so phone go to loop, so I flashed Samsung rom. I will rebuild it boot.img. Still we need recovery, but I`m able to test roms:D.
I wish heimdall supported ops(Odin partition script), because I could test my build without rebooting my computer.

waveboy2u.wordpress.com/2011/02/17/enable-live-wallpapers-on-samsung-galaxy-551

Saludos! ;)

Thanks in advance, but i tried before and nothing happens, ones i start to write the code in the phone (the first line) i press enter and "not found" is the answer. Any suggestion?

You can do the same using adb

I am assuming that you have installed Android SDK and KIES

Connect your phone to your computer via USB.
Choose KIES mode (not UMS) on phone

Now, open a command prompt on your computer
type :
>adb shell
>su
#

At the root prompt, type the commands that you need to type on in the terminal.
Done

Willing,

Which firmware image did you use for reverting back?
Do you have any image which will work for Indian phones - my current build is DDJK4.

I use latest open rom from Samsung. I5510XWKA7
You can use it, but you shouldn`t use CSC*.tar.md5, because it contains region specific information, like apn, language. I only use PDA*.tar.md5, because it contains most important files for rom.
