Hi
Please add the answer of this question in this thread.
Does rooting/flashing custom ROM/kernels etc. start the security risk against the hackers/virus/trojans attacks etc.
(Please recommend some secure ROMs/kernels/tweaks etc. if available)
Thanks
Can you read? or do you need to be spoon fed?
4. To flash one of pretzket's Samsung Leak:
Download the leak.
Open it with 7zip or WinRar or equivalent.
Have your phone drivers set up.
Run Odin.
Put your phone in DOWNLOAD MODE:
Put the file in the PDA.
While flashing this, make sure the phone is on a stable surface. Don't Touch it. Make sure there is no tension on the Data cord.
I'm superstitious, but make sure all other programs are not running..stupid things like burning a DVD etc.
Make sure your antivirus is turned off.
which part of that guide did you not see?
one more noob question, are you able to flash custom roms for the at&t version. on the Rogers version (i977r)
Thanks alot for all your help. I seem to have decent functional knowledge of how to use Heimdall now. Using your Froyo Heimdall package, I reverted to stock and was eventually able to get the SIM unlock code with a Hex editor. Right now, I just finished installing the Froyo community kernel via your Heimdall package. I have a feeling I'm not going to like Froyo too much, so I suspect I'll be looking to go with a custom GB ROM pretty soon.
Can you give me any quick tips on what specifically NOT to do to help avoid bricking? Like if I'm going from Froyo to GB or ICS, does it matter if the ROM is flashed before the kernel, or doesn't order matter? At what point will I definitely need to install bootloaders, if at all?
Qkster, or anyone else willing:
If I could make a suggestion, I wish there were more info on kernels. I've trolled the threads, especially those on ur sig, but I don't feel like I am any closer to knowing what I'm doing than when I started.
For instance, SWS kernel Flasher - where is it or what else is it called? How do we know when to use it? And what is this Entrophy DD kernel? It says it's an experimental, so does that mean we use it temporarily and then flash a perm one? Or keep it b/c it's name says it's a Daily Driver? And a most basic question that isn't answered anywhere I could find: do we flash kernels before or after flashing ROMs? Last (I think), what is VOODOO lagfix, I mean, what does it do? what is it's purpose? I understand some ROMs tell u to disable it first, but some just assume u know (which I then assume to keep it enabled). And, when ur done flashing, do u go back and enable it? And, now, I feel like I should apologize b/c the info I've been reading is all running together in my mind like watercolors on paper...
[My case in point: I've got Zeus v.6 and things are starting to get kinda buggy. So I'm considering a diff kernel or to flash back to the stock GB. IDK if the rooted ver. includes the stock kernel or what. I haven't messed w/any kernel, obviously. Maybe I should just GTG back to stock 1st but that's such a pain in my arse. Anyway, my CIP is answered elsewhere I know, so that's just a sidenote of where I'm coming from.]
You do provide a lot of info for us noobs, and I thank you for that. Once u've not been a noob for a while, some of the most basic info just isn't noted. I'm not TOO new to be trying this stuff b/c I have done plenty successfully, I'm just trying to expand my knowledge and kernels are something I haven't a clue on. Again, I've read ur threads so I'm afraid of more links. Please don't hurt me. lol Please educate me. Thanks again for all u do!
Apparently, I got a little ahead of myself. Wasn't too fond of Froyo, so I decided to boot into CWM and do a restore of the original GB rom that was on the phone. I've gotten into the habit of doing several wipes within CWM, from my Optimus V rooting days, so hopefully that's not the issue I'm having now. After the restore, I'm stuck on the Samsung screen. Can I simply pull the battery then boot up into DL mode and install the Entropy kernel via Heimdall, or is it more complicated to undo what i did?
If I have the stock 3e recovery and click on apply update from SD and choose a rom on my SD will it work?
