[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjr1105:
Use this method to flash back to stock. Supposed to be much safer that doesn't mess with the bootloader files. I have been using it for about 3 weeks now to flash back to stock. You CAN however still use the one click odin to master clear once you have flashed back to stock.

Back on topic... I would flash back to 2.1 using the above method and master clear to start fresh with this issue. Once that is done look for mobiletechvideo's 3 button fix video on youtube. But even if you have 3 button issues the Galaxy S one click root program should still get you into recovery. It doesn't always succeed in copying the update.zip file to the internal SD card but you can do that manually and just use the program solely to get into recovery. Make sure you have USB debugging on. After the stock flash and master clear it is off by default and samsung kies is on. You might want to invest in a Jig also since you have 3 button issues, it may save you hide someday.

As far as a good rom goes. Really all the 2.2.1 roms are pretty stable and fast. I'm currently using Continuum 4 with the paragon kernel and it floats and sips battery. If you like the stock look you can use cognition. If you like the green themed gingerbread look you can use Phoenix, Serendipity, Firefly, or Paragon which is my personal fav but hasn't been updated in a month.

Anyways good luck. I'm sure you'll figure it out.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjr1105:
oops, got double posted somehow
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharp1114:
Thanks for all your advice and help. I finally got it rooted.

I've tried Cognition 4.3 and Paragon, both of which I liked. I like the appearance of Paragon, but the optimization just doesn't seem to be there. Cognition is great for customization, but I the appearance is just to 'stockish' for me, if that makes sense. Something in between would be nice. (Ideas?)

I plan to try Phoenix Unleashed, but i can't get it to download.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SladeZero:
The reason why the programs are having a hard time seeing your cappy is because you need the Serial COM driver available only by installing Samsumg's software: Kies Mini... don't run the program just install it. Once you do this Odin and the Wonder Root program can see the phone. I had this issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SladeZero:
Try changing your launcher... that did it for me. GoLauncher is good so is AWLauncher. They both have nice schemes... I liek the default of both. GOLauncher won in my opinion.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
thanks, ill bookmark that thread. im not in the habit of flashing to stock but that is a valuable piece of information for people who are.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KreepyKen:
Same here. I actually have an old Mac, so I borrowed a Windows laptop when I destroyed my Captivate. Odin refused to see the phone. So I tried downloading and running Kies Mini to see if I could just get the stock 2.2. I installed and ran Kies, but it kept quitting on me. So I tried Odin again, and sure as ****, it recognized the phone. Older Odin one-click, though...I lost my three-button recovery. Luckily, I'm just non-retarded enough to get the SDK & ADB working to root the phone again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharp1114:
I'm running the Tag 2.2 Launcher. It works really well. What I really need is the apk name or a link to the app for the old Samsung Froyo keyboard. Gingerbread is nice, just not quite there yet. Suggestions?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharp1114:
I discovered that AxT9IME.apk was what I was looking for, so I uploaded it to my phone. However, it won't install. Can anyone think of a reason why the app won't install or how I can install it? (Before you ask, I have selected the option to allow my phone to install unknown apps.)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Try using either

Root explorer (recommended but not free)

Super manager (free but confusing)

Android mate (see above)

Abd(not likely)

Take apk, move it to system/app then reboot
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnerb123:
When 2.2 came out, I found this one-click root app. Worked like a charm for me. If it doesn't work please let me know. The one thing I can not remember is if it went around the 3e boo loader. There is an auto 3e program that you can use as well. Message me you want it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deromedi:
Hello all,

I installed Gingerblur beta 7.7 on my phone few days ago.

It's nice but since the RC1 and now the OTA, I wish to revert back to stock (rooted)...

I got this RSD procedure but the start button is not accessible...

Every 2 to 3 hours, I have this reminder asking me to do the OTA which of course doesn't work...

Please help me :confused::confused::confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deromedi:
Why don't I just use the uninstall from Beta 7.7 ?

Is there any reason why we shouldn't use the uninstall file from the beta 7.7 ?

:confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blk02Ls1:
You can turn that reminder off...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deromedi:
Turn reminder off...

This would be a first step...

How to do that?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fausty:
Few things, for RSD, drag and drop the sbf file into the RSD window, that will make the start button not greyed out.

If you then get writing failed 0x71000 (my experience), put the sbf file at the root of c, rename it a.sbf. Close RSD, remove the log files from the app directory. Try to do the flashing. If it fails, check the logs and you should see some bogus characters added to the end of the filename. Add as many characters to the filename as bogus ones (my file ended up to be a123.sbf) and try again. It worked for me.

For the OTA, you can disable it with Titanium backup and freezing the udpate app.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deromedi:
Thank you so much ! I have been stcuk on this for hours, looking everywhere !
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tha5150:
did you figure it out? move the SBF file to your C: root or documents or even the Temp folder. for some reason this is a known issue. also note: 2 out of 5 times i tried to SBF on my 64 bit machine i was successful. i ended up grabbing an old laptop with windows 7 32bit and worked like a charm.

hope this helps.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deromedi:
The drag and drop!

Thank you all for your help!

What did the trick was drag and drop...

everything went smoothly from there.

Now waiting for a gingerblur compatible with 1.57!

Thanks again!
[XPERIA X10 General] hidebank:
cheers to all x10i guru people. I've got problem with my x10 bootloader which can't be boot to anything .

When i pressed power nothing showing up except the green led blinking.

i've tried all the gadget stuff which can be rescue my x10 but it's failed even seus PC-COMP Flastools

and i also try on omnius when the omnius seeking or my bootloader it gets error code what should i do? :confused:

ps. thx for your have earlier
[XPERIA X10 General] Teio:
I highly doubt that SEUS fails to restore it... is it possible that you are doing it wrong??

You can try Bin4ry's flashtool...
[XPERIA X10 General] Yperion:
I have the same problem on my pro, and i just remove and re-insert the battery and the i connect the usb w/o pressing anything... And it works...

If everything fails go to a service point...
[XPERIA X10 General] kistigun:
i've had the same problem once. search for this firmware: ROOT_F3v3.rar on the forum(sorry cant find the link) and flash it. After that just update using seus or pc ompanion
[XPERIA X10 General] Yperion:
How can he flash it, since his phone dont get in flash mode?
[XPERIA X10 General] kistigun:
as i understand it the phone wont start up. He said nothing about not getting into flash mode
[XPERIA X10 General] Yperion:
Read the first post...

"i've tried all the gadget stuff

which can be rescue my x10

but it's failed even seus PC-

COMP Flastools"
[XPERIA X10 General] kistigun:
indeed read! He doesn't say anything about not getting into flashmode only that he tried PC-comp flash tool and that didn't work for him...

anyway this discussion isn't helping him either
[HTC Incredible S] itandy:
Just found that my IS cannot connect to my Dlink router if it's using channel 12/13. I had similar problem with my last Hero (VR12/VR13) which was solved by flashing a modded wpa_supplicant.

So I guess that makes another good reason to root my IS. Anyone has this problem too and has a resolution?
[HTC Incredible S] TheJeeks:
I have a Netgear router and I was having problems connecting on the low channels, 20 MHz range. I switched to 40 MHz and chose the upper range and it connected automatically.
[HTC Incredible S] knightrocker:
Hey guys ... This is the dev section ... Please could you post this in the general ... I think that would be better ...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] cowballz69:
Anyone try this yet 15 bucks is steeeep for a launcher, however its not showing up in my market
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] fliparsenal:
Works on my vibrant, no go on nook, though it was stated it'd wouldn't work on tablets. Painfully slow start up (even after reboot). Otherwise it's really smooth with a bit of eye candy. That price doesn't justify it though and I still feel as if nothing much changed from bet.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] cowballz69:
Tryed it on my dell streak, nook no go to, however eye candy was there but wasent as smooth as adw pro so got a refund, def not worth 15 bucks there loss
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] chadillac0000:
I tried it while it was beta and was not impressed. Although it looks great I found the UI to be counterintuitive. The only thing I really found neat about SPB 3d is the morphing widgets. Although the 2-state morphing widgets look cool they do not really add any functionality (in fact they kind of defeat the purpose of widgets as they hide important info until you interact/open them).

In my opinion SPB is all eye-candy with no killer features. Even if it was really good I don't think I could justify $15 when there are plenty of great launchers out there for little to no cost.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Link3737:
Love it on my phone - hate it on my Nook.

It does not scale up well at all to the 7'' form factor. Save your $15 and buy ADW EX or LP+ instead.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RexxDominus:
RexxDominus

ok... i'm running MiUi.us Build Number 1.7.22 on my nook color. i took the risk and i paid for the SPB Shell 3D. and i'm very happy to say that it work's great. very few issues, smooth and very responsive. i know there really isn't a fully working tablet operating system out there yet. or at least none that i have came across on yet. but this launcher with the new tablet setting they added make's it feel way more like a tablet and not a clone operating phone system. only thing i would (REALLY) like to see is if someone could put one of these operating system's together (without) all the phone things it brings. other then that i say if you like to give this a try i don't think you would be disappointed. :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rehuxley:
I agree. I have been using it on my droid x and now for my rooted nook. The new "experimental" tablet view is perfect for the noon. Just saw a notice from the company (spb.com) that there is a UI Builder to allow devs to customize it. Not sure if this is just for WM or android OS as it doesn't clarify. Would allow for some nice widget and skin customization. Any devs out there want to give it a go if so?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] guv.:
Tablet mode does work quite well, but it's not nearly as smooth as launcher pro and all processes combined it needs close to 150 MB of RAM, which even with 512 MB of RAM is quite a lot.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ace7196:
I actually dig it. Works well, although the transitions are just a bit choppy, but not that bad. For a honeycomb looking UI, I'll take it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gunstar_Hero:
My phone is stuck in a bootloop, and I can not get into clockwork and my phone won't flash a rom! It always just says parsing... and goes back to the menu. Recovery goes to a fading black screen. How do I fix this thing? None of the other posts are descriptive enough or actually worked.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RootTheNoob:
So you can't even get into recovery?

Are you familiar with ADB?

If not just google it and see if that helps any. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
I'm pretty green myself, but if you hold the down volume and power can you get to hboot? If you can, put the stock rooted PD98img.zip file on you sd card. Go to hboot. Select recovery and see if it can find that file on your zip card. That should get you back to stock rooted (You are rooted I'm guessing). From there you should be able to flash a back up or a new ROM. Again, I'm a noob too, but that worked for me.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gunstar_Hero:
Alright, that was gonna be the next thing I tried actually, I guess the stock rooted rom has something special about it that makes it work?

Magic? :P
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
When all else fails that has just been the easiest place for me to go back to and start over.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gunstar_Hero:
Also, what is the best version of CWM to flash from rom manager to ensure CWM works without the black screen issue that you get without Eng S-OFF?
[HTC Inspire 4G] sugardaddy1979:
I get black screen with all of them. I did try down grading my hboot with this process:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1003086&highlight=eng

And it worked, but then when I tried to back uo with CWN 2.x i ended up in a soft boot loop. I haven't tried it agian yet but I am going to. Then I will use CWM 3.X to do the back up and see if it works.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gunstar_Hero:
Alright, be sure to get back with your results, my phone is flashing right now! I can't thank you guys enough! I'll rep you and what not (am I thinking of the right forum?), major thanks guys!

[Nook Color General] ford12acing:
i installed nookie froyo to the internal memory, but it says i only have 400mb+ free. what gives?
[Nook Color General] kirbfucius:
I have CM7 on mine, but there appear to be two internal storages. Mine shows "Internal Storage" total of .92GB and then "Internal storage: /mnt/emmc" total of 5.00GB.

Of course, that adds up to about 6gigs so I'm not really sure where the other two went. :confused:
[Nook Color General] JLCollier2005:
from what I read, prior to the nook actually coming out it was rumored to have 8gigs internal, but actually ended up having 5 when it came out. This is the usable space, I believe the 0.92 gigs is for the system and updates, but I don't know for sure.
[Nook Color General] lafester:
from android tablets.net

google rocks :)
[Nook Color General] JLCollier2005:
ah, so it's a little bit of both. That makes sense that they'd do that. I knew there was 5 gigs of usable space.
[Nook Color General] ford12acing:
ahh okay. well i can't complain about an awesome bday gift and an awesome bang for buck tablet!
[Nook Color General] pokey9000:
Nothing is stopping you from repartitioning to make /data take up that 5gb...
[Nook Color General] Animec:
Hmmm. Pros/cons to making better use of that hidden recovery partition?
[Nook Color General] Nburnes:
My guess is that it would actually become brickable, instead of having the fail safes it does have in place.
[Nook Color General] RoboRay:
It will never be brickable so long as the uSD card is first in boot priority.
[Nook Color General] thegameksk:
This may be a dumb question but how do In access the 5 gig internal memory? When I check table data it shows 900 mb free and when its connected to my computer only a gig. How do I access the 5 gig portion? Thanks!
[Nook Color General] olm3ca:
What rom are you running? This was a problem for me a while back but the latest releases of CM7 fixed that.

I would suggest either rooted 1.2 rom (if you like froyo) or get on the CM7 nightly train.... do a full refresh, though. Meaning in clockworkmod recovery do a data cache and system wipe.... just don't format boot!
[Nook Color General] thegameksk:
i found the issue. The new nooks have been repartioned. So only 1 gig can be used for storage.
[Nook Color General] 7tehzombi:
Damn, I was about to comment that they would be stupid to do that sue to how much limitation that would put on the number of books you could store on it at once, but at the bottom of the specs page in small print on B&N's site..

So 3GB for system and restore, 4GB for B&N only items and 1GB free space.... Not sure how I feel about that one.
[Nook Color General] Taosaur:
I really don't think that means what you're reading it to mean. Of the 5GB not dedicated to recovery, ~1GB is used for the ROM and considered "phone memory" by apps and such, while 3.9GB is available for storage. They're just suggesting that you fill that storage by means of the B&N store.
[Nook Color General] NewZJ:
3.9GB is a lot of books, like $$$$$$$$ worth of books, wowsers!
[Nook Color General] 7tehzombi:
Actually, after a bunch of reading on the B&N forums, it appears to mean just about exactly what I thought it did. 7GB for system and B&N purchases and 1GB for sideloaded content. Seems the 1.2 models have been shipping like that for about a week now.

Yeah, so.. I'm still not quite sure how I'm feeling about that.
[Nook Color General] Taosaur:
:eek: I'm pretty sure I feel like that is insane. I don't even... are there even 3GB worth of apps on the B&N market?

What does this mean for future rooting? Would it take more than rooting to gain access to that 7GB, and would Google market apps install to the 1GB or the 7GB?

I guess if you're sticking with the stock OS, it doesn't make that much difference--how many people have a 1GB+ library of e-books? And if the only apps you can get are in the B&N store, those are going to take up a lot more space, plus I guess magazines can be space hogs.

Was B&N content going into the 3GB partition this whole time? I used the stock OS for all of three days, so I have no idea.
[Nook Color General] I Am Marino:
Means if you already have a NC, you better hold on to it tight.

and if you're buying one, find a used one.
[Nook Color General] ramiss:
Surely all we have to do is get a hold of the program they use to re-partition the nooks and hack it to reverse the process.

[G Tablet General] tsm26:
Does Calkulin's ROM have the same potential issue as the TwoTapsX ROM in that it is running on the 3991 firmware? I was planning on flashing my tablet with it, but might just go with Vegan if that is the case. However, soft bricks don't scare me. I have hacked almost every electronic device that I own (ATV2, iPhone, Wii, etc) and I am a programmer. Anyway, if the only risk is a soft brick I still think I may go with Calkulin's.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Tmk, no. His is similar to to my TNT Lite 4.3.0 / 4.4.0 - old bootloader / kernel, but a 3991-based system image. Risk of brickage is much lower because of that.

The only full mod based off 3991 was TNT Lite 5 / TwoTapsX.
[G Tablet General] y2k-inc:
running it for as long as it out and have 0 issue ... run it with this kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=895825) make it sleep and wake up as a breeze :)
[G Tablet General] tsm26:
Thanks roe. I have been lurking ever since I ordered the G-Tab, though this isn't my first rodeo. I have used the other device forums for previous ROMs etc in the past. And just so you know, I will NEVER blame a mod dev for me bricking my device. In all reality, I have only hard-bricked one device of the almost one hundred I have modified (the wii homebrew is still my favorite hack). That lovely broken device was one strange WRT-54G when I put on DD-WRT. I had done it dozens of times before and this one time, no go :)

Maybe if I get some time away from work projects I will get in to Android development, not only apps but core OS. Thanks for all your great work.
[G Tablet General] magqccom:
I really don't get all that bootloader stuff. Maybe I'm overlooking the obvious, but all it does is it gets loaded by whatever our devices use as a bios and then load the kernel (or recovery kernel) that sits in a partition. If you don't change your partition, why change the bootloader?

Whatever the case may be, that rom runs fine on my tablet. Flashed with clockwork.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Seems to be heavily linked to your kernel (the latter is compiled with the former in mind). The reasons why are over my head, but suffice it to say that sometimes a vendor might require a bootloader update with their stock ROM update.

This has been the case with recent Notion Ink Adam updates, as well as that GTAB 1.2 dev branch (UAT build 3991). Think about it -- why would the vendor put it in there if they didn't want you to have it? They'd sooner just leave it out, if it wasn't needed for some reason.
[G Tablet General] tsm26:
Apple computers are a perfect example of the bootloaders being tied to their kernel and underlying OS. Old bootloaders and ones like GRUB are flexible, but that is not necessarily the norm anymore.
