[TUT]MIMO Ext 4 Kernel on Vibrant

---

It seems the firmware after the models xjm1 and xjm2 are bricking phones on reverting back to US firmware. Thought it was my phone. So im getting rid of this thread.

previous post edited...sorry I read wrong......

Nope, just wanted to show off my homescreen in case anyone was wondering compatibility issues with applications that everyone is familiar with. Those were just some of the main applications I know a wide audience tend to use, so I picked them to display.

damn,.. you already answered to my stupid question.... sorry for wasting your time...anyways I've got few new questions!

After MIMO Ext 4 procedure is done...

1) What happens if you take out the external memory card after booting...

2) What happans if you lose the external memory card? Is the phone considered bricked then?

3) How do I reverse the MIMO Ext 4? (get rid of MIMO Ext4)


Anyways great info!!! I might actually try JM2 installation!!

1. Since your application data is now stored and ran from the sd card, your applications will go wonky, and any applications you try to install or reopen that have been close will not open.

2. No, if you lost the sd card, you can simply format another one, or use ROM manager and the clockwork recovery to reinstall your stock rom.

3. Rom manager or reflash original firmware with ODIN. But I recommend using Clockwork recovery to reinstall a nandroid backup found in the development section here, or an update.zip. As these methods are less intrusive an will give you less problems.

yay!! now I know and I dont' have to shiver in fear bricking my phone trying MIMO Ext4 !!!!!!!!!

I appreciate your swift replies !! I'll probably try this when I get some free time !!

If I could track down a i897 phone file, I'd be all over this on my Captivate.

Yeah, I had captivate in my possession yesterday, and this exact method did not work for it. Of course it might would if I could of found the exact firmware for the captivate split into the three odin files, rather than the all in one click exe. But i've returned it since then, so I won't be able to look into that anymore.

I used a program called Universal Extractor to bust open that one-click file, but all it could extract were the non-binary files inside, about 300kb of .xml, .txt and script files, in the META-INF and system directory.

I don't get it.... Why is this a goid thing to move all of your data to your sd... ?
