Uninstall Gingerbread MIUI 2.3.4 on Galaxy S

Hello, i need to uninstall Miui Gingerbread to install the official Gingerbread, i'm much more used to it, how can i do it?? Already tried to clean up the data and system and tried the Sam's firmaware last gingerbread but it would not worked.. Is it possible to downgrade to 2.2 and then install 2.3.3??
Greetings

Yes it is possible to downgrade for 2.3.3 to 2.2(.1 in my case)
I can't remember exactly how I did it, but I basically followed the instructions to install MIUI, but for a 2.2 ROM, so wiping data, system and cache, then flashing a darky ROM (but should work with any tbh)

Dead easy. Just install the Samsung Android 2.3.3 XWJVB ROM (link - http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-install-xwjvb-gingerbread-rom-gaalxy-s/)
But before you install XWJVB, install the EZRom to remove/uninstall the MIUI. It's available in two versions, select the one you want:
Android 2.2 based EZRom - http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-ezrom-for-android-2-2-install-revert-back/
Android 2.3 based EZRom - http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-rom-v3-0-full-installation-guide-w-video/
Credits and Thanks to Nitr8 for great EZRoms

All you need to do it , Flash the Official GB FW , using Odin (Repartition just to be sure)

Why only the MIUI

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to install a custom rom on a phone of a friend, an xperia x10i
I tried several rom, but the only one the seems to work is the MIUI rom, that unfortunately does not have any support for the camera...
I tried all the roms I found here, but except for the MIUI rom, all the other get stuck at the beginning, when the logo "sony ericcson appears.
Does anyone have any idea or suggestion?
Thank you very much

that isn't what he's asking...
he's asking why only the miui rom will work.
I assume it is because he is trying gb roms with the wrong baseband and kernel

flash 2.3.3 stock rom via flashtool
then root it
then install xrecovery..
then any rom u like download and flash via
xrecovery.....

[Q] U8800 Gingerbread update failed (battery ran out)

Hello pepole..
My classmate have tryed to upgrade his huawei u8800 to gingerbread on his own..
but he forgot to charge the battery (so he sayes) so it ran out.. while updating.
i still kan update from sd card clear chash and clear rom ?? and restart the phone.
is there any file i can put on this Sd card an upgrate it from there? i tryed to search here but so many solutions i want to be sure before i do sometinh rash.

If you can boot into recovery, just wipe and reflash the rom

yes i guessed so. but now i got lot of files here.. and i dont know whit one to use?

There are 3 custom roms available here for X5(not pro): Miui, Oxygen and CM7.
All are gingerbread, which is the latest available android version.
Miui is more eye candy(looks like iphone), but costs faster memory drain.
Oxygen and CM7 seems to be in the same level(maybe Oxygen is a bit more stable).
Oxygen is more "bulk", CM7 have some useful settings additions which aren't in stock roms(or oxygen some of them).
Also there is franco' s kernel which is indepentent of what rom of above you'll use(you need to flash in after the first rom' s boot), and have a lot o improvements for speed and battery saving.
So, it' s a matter of what you want. All roms are in a good level. There are more infos at the original post(1st post) of every rom.

oki then i need to find them. they are in here? in some post? i will need som help with this.

You said you searched. The roms threads are all in 1st page of Ideos developing section:

and franko' s kernel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166560

Never start with miui.First give a chance for oxygen or cm7.Because after miui,the others look like so simple.You will not want to use these after miui.

A big problem

hello guys i'm from slovenia so and i don't know very well english to apologise
i have a big problem with my huawei i installed the cwm and wiped then i try installed cyanogenmod 9 but there was a problem installation was not successfully i was very confused so i downloaded the original 2.3 firmware from huawei.com and i paste orginal boot.img and recovery.img in pink screen then i try to instaled it but i've have pitcs but why i followed the instructions ( i formated the sc card and paste the rom in it) and then is a warnig whin an triangle update failed
so can anybody help me and tell me what can i do to fix this
Thank you !!!

wowww,wait a little.where did you find a cyanogenmod 9 rom? was it from another phone? if yes,maybe that's why the installation failed.
also,everything else you did was kinda wrong
i bet you can only try installing the official 2.3.5 firmware following the instructions included in huawei package and after that if the phone boots up correctly there are a lot of users here(including me) willing to help you

it was for this phone for the pro version and everything so what are is you'r proposal to do here ? can you give me please an custom (clockword and root images that you use and a rom that actually works i've have the pro version
Thanks !!!

I have the pro version too. I think I can help you.
Well the cwm I use is this one: http://sourceforge.net/projects/genoandroid/files/recovery5.0.2.7_en_u8800pro.img/download
Geno made it so big thanks to him
As for working Custom Roms check the U8800 Pro Android Development Section,try any ROM you want and just stick with the one that suits you better Be sure to try out aurora(from sakura), kalo rom, gkalenis rom(it has tv-out) and if you can my roms
Anyway.Try using the custom recovery.img I gave you with the boot.img from the rom you flashed(if the phone boots you are good to go). If the phone doesn't boot reinstall official firmware

so if i understand you for example i just downloaded you first rom and recovery that you gave me now i replace the recovery and that boot.img that is in MoihackB572GBFinal.zip ?

almost.replace with the boot.img from the cm9 rom you flashed previously(it's inside the zip file)
sorry i didn't make this clear
make sure the phone boots after replacing those files in pink screen. if it boots correctly everything else is pretty easy. the important thing here is to get your phone work again

Moihack you'r a genius it actually works and i lied it wasn't cm9 it was cm7 from geno ''cm-7.2.0-u8800pro-Geno-120604-final'' it's chinese-english but it works. so i have a question now which rom do you advise me and thanks a lot !!!

well glad i was able to help! you are welcome
my 2nd rom is based on the cm7 you tried but is free from all apps(only basic ones left) and is actually a pretty small one(about 60mb).you can try it if u want to
now the roms i like is the aurora ics from sakura(it is pretty stable and fast for ics) and horse absolute (made by gkalenis). horse rom also has tv-out option but you have to downgrade to 2.2,re-root,install cwm and flash it in order to work properly(otherwise camera use will cause reboot of the phone).
anyway.if you like ics,feel free to try aurora (don't try the official ics from huawei yet)
if you want froyo and tv-out go with horse rom
if you like gingerbread,well try my roms
btw i am cooking another 2 roms these days(a mokeeOS and a miui 2.3.30 ) so keep an eye on u8800 pro development section if you want

[Noob Time] Why FLash To CM 10.1 ?

Good Evening Dudes
I'm just introduced on this section and it's first time than i ve had a stuff like this awesome samsung
Smooth Fast Strong And God ! it's the beautifull customisable stock rom (it's really beautifull to compare with htc stock rom)
well the question is not here and the target also
i've never had the oppotunitities to try a CM 10.1 on any device Htc desire x hasnt official CM and not possible to port CM10.1 cauz Htc doesnt provide the kernel source.... damn
(it's was juste for put in situation)
What's the real interest -Gain can i expect with the CM10.1 on the Galaxy S4 ?
Whith this rom it's sound interesting to put a custom kernel also.
what can we do with cm 10.1 than we cannot with a stock rom ?
Yeah a know , i can make a backup on my stock rom , flash the cm 10.1 try and if doesnt like it restore to the backuped stock.
Thanks for your time
If you had any other suggestion better than the CM 10.1 (i know it s on nightlies sound like equal as alpha but
topic is open :s

Well the Stock ROM is pretty much as bloated as a whale. CM is only 200MB in size, so first of all it will save space on your internal memory. Second of all, you won't have a lot of processes running in the background like you do now, your phone will be a LOT more responsive. Ofcourse, as with any custom ROM, there will be some bugs and those ROMs will need testing and updates (that's why nightlies exist). But eventually there will be stable versions and imo, it'll beat the stock any day. On the other hand, the stock ROM has some functions like the IR blaster, the smart-pause, smart-scroll and hover function, etc. If you're a big fan of those things, stick with your Stock ROM. But if you would like to a clean, simple, bloat free and faster experience than you have now, a custom ROM is a great way to achieve it. But that's not the only thing ofcourse, CM also has some extra functions and customization options you won't find in your stock ROM, you can tweak your system quite a lot and there are some things I couldn't live without (for example swapping your menu key for your recent apps switcher, and putting the menu function on the long press ).

Thanks a lot
Sound really interesting
CM 10.1 it's more in touch with i'm looking for
The actual build of CM 10.1 can be used on a basic day usage ? or it's better to wait a few days ?
If i flash the cm now ? need also to flash another kernel or just flash the zip by philw touch recovery ?
can i come back to my stock backuped rom after if i want ? with the restore function of philz touch recovery ?

I'm using Philz Recovery too and yes you can flash CM10.1 from there (I have the latest build from June 12th on it). Before you flash, make your sure you wipe/factory reset your phone in Philz Recovery. You might also need to flash the CM10.1 rom 2 or 3 times (the second time it usually works), on the first try it always gives a Status 7 error (don't worry). Look at the thread for the Offical CM10.1 Nightlies, there's a lot information there!
It's working pretty good for me, I haven't found any major bugs so far. Just make sure you make a Nandroid backup in Philz Recovery first (and store it your external SD card for safety and to save space ofcourse ). You can always return to that backup through the restore function in Philz Recovery yes.
Also, if you update your CM10.1 with a new nightly build (for example next week, or next month), do it manually and flash it in the recovery each time. Updating it from the Settings->About->Cyanogenmod Updates menu bricked my phone today, so I guess there is still a bug there. Besides that, there are no issues what so ever according to me.
PS: You're from Liege? I'm from Genk

last question before the first try
With the original Cm we need to flash gapps separately or it's inside the rom ?
If external suppose to take the last release on goo

If I remember correctly you need to flash it separately

Ui is clear, phone running smooth and very well no issue with wifi or 3g
The first bug i ve seen was about the carrier name -- the carrier name is showed like an id on a database (think the code for showed the cells with carrier name is not correct)
For the rest no speciq issue detected
Thanks a lot for your help
PS : i ve also find a answer to one of my question
