Recover is in red. I don't know that I put the ROM int eh root. I just dbl clicked pushto than copied and pasted 2.8 in the terminal and hit enter. It sounds like we are getting somewhere though. Thanks for the help.

Since its red, that means clockworkmod was successful.

Instead of copying and pasting the file in pushtosd, just drag the file and drop it into the terminal window. And for save measures, post the terminal output on here so I can see whats happening.

so the other thing is that I don't think I actually have EB01 installed, how can I confirm that?

As for the ROM could be because of the file name "frankenclean..." should it be renamed to update.zip?

You don't have EB01 yet. That will be installed when you flash SC 2.8. You just have the proper kernel for cwm to work.

I apologize, I did drag and drop, not copy and paste. It does have a long name but I can't rename in the phone if that even matters. When i rename it comes up with the new name but keeps the original on the end as well. Do you think if I was able to rename to update.zip it would matter? It's not in a folder so it's in the root directory making me think the file name could be the issue. I could delete it tonight and try to put it back on the card named as update.zip

I have a question (read: noob) concerning my phone modem. I am currently running SC 2.8 with a DI01 modem and am having issues with sending sms messages. I read somewhere that I need at least DL09 modem to send sms messages through SC 2.8.

Is there a means to flash the DL09 modem through a mac without odin? I am loving the SC 2.8, but need my sms messaging.

Any help would be great as I am a definite noob.

Thanks

Yeah this is true , you had to have over the aired to DL09 before installing. Now you will need to find a windows pc to use or partition your drive and install windows on your pc...

So the super_frenkenclean_2_8v_final file on the phone seems to only be 4KB wich seems odd. i will delete the file and try to copy it back to the phone tonight and provide an update.

Make sure the zip file you want to push is in a folder in which the path contains no spaces.

What Droid said. I havent been successful in making a 1-click for installing modems...

 

[jerseyjim]

pushed the file successfully to phone however after installing and rebooting it just keeps cycling into the recovery screen. Getting nervous now...

 

[eskimo337]

You guys rock! Thanks for the input. I will try my luck through odin. Is there a do-it-yourself guide to flashing modems with odin?

whats wrong jersey?

 

[jerseyjim]

It said it installed so I clicked on reboot and the phone cycles to samsung logo twice and then goes back to recovery screen

on an ironic side note: I'm from Jersey and now live in Colorado and you guys are in Jersey and Colorado. I'm sure that has to be a good sign that we'll get this thing working again lol

blue or red recovery,,,and you are trying to flash 2.8?

 

[jerseyjim]

red recovery. 2.8 voodoo. I followed the mac one click tutorial. The top of the screen says CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x

 

[DroidXcon]

red recovery. 2.8 voodoo. I followed the mac one click tutorial

flash it again, then go to the voodoo section and enable lagfix
look at the section on enableing lagfix,,,,also wipe your cache and dalvik cache

its the kernel that came with 2.8 has trouble initiating the conversion, do you have a card reader to put a different kernel on your sdcard?

 

[jerseyjim]

stupid question here, when you say flash is it safe to assume you mean install 2.8 zip again? Ok, I see from the link you sent that is correct I am doing it now
