Or you guys know any gingerbread launcher or theme ?
[Vibrant General] jpcdeux:
Search the market for gingerbread launcher and gingerbread keyboard. That's as good as it gets if you for whatever crazy reason don't want rootz
[Vibrant General] L1LK1LLERZ:
I am just scared to root my new Samsung vibrant! If I get perfect help.. I would probably do it! And I want gingerbread so bad!
[Vibrant General] Romanbb:
Installing a custom rom is much worse than rooting, btw ;)
[Vibrant General] thegreatcity:
Yeah rooting is the easy part. Hell, flashing roms is easy too. You just have to read and follow directions. This phone is nearly brick-proof too. As long as you follow directions you have nothing to worry about.

What do you do after root?

I kind of bricked my phone, and I am thinking if I overwrite with stock rom, it will work, since I have deleted some files that come with the stock rom.
[Captivate General] crystalhand:
You can just flash back to stock using odin in download mode and then upgrade to 2.2 using kies
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
I already upgraded mine to Froyo.

And my android system recovery is <3e>

Any packages I try to install gives me E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted .. :(

Help me please..
[Captivate General] qwertyaas:
Use odin to flash back to JF6. Then use Kies.

If you want the older recovery, it's floating around here somewhere.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
as has been already stated. USE ODIN. and do yourself a favor and learn what the hell you are doing to your phone before you screw it up.... :rolleyes:
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
I am so sorry. I am a desperate noob here.

I downloaded Odin, and loaded pit, but Odin is not recognizing my phone.

My phone is currently in Media player mode, and I cannot switch to debugging mode.

Can anyone explain me how I can use Odin to JF6?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
once again.

STOP

you need to read before you go any further. there is about 100 threads on here about how to recovery from a brick and how to use Odin to get back to stock. you are doing nothing but spinning your wheels right now. READ. Understand. Comprehend. DO.
[Captivate General] aicirt17:
Follow the link below to bring your phone bach to stock condition:

Then use Kies to re-update to Froyo.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Please we implore you, Slow down and make sure you know what you are doing before you do it. Right now you can recover but if you keep doing things too fast you are gonna end up with a brick that you cant fix. Follow the links above and read each post at least twice to be sure you got it. Good Luck. Please reply to let us know if you fixed it.
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
Last question.

I had a program where it managed files, and controlled the phone to reboot into debugging mode. Now I have a different computer, I forgot the name of the program.

Mine is currently in media player mode, and is there a program that will allow the phone to reboot into the debugging mode? I cannot at all access the system controls.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
debugging mode is not needed for recovery or download modes
[Captivate General] studacris:
When you use odin to restore it to stock you will be in download mode outside of the os. Debugging doesn't matter as this mode is strictly for flashing firmware.

Like everyone has said SLOW DOWN, READ, be sure you know what you're about to do before you even touch your phone.
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

I followed all the instruction.

I did step 1, 2, and 3.

When I try to enter download mode, it continues to reach android system recovery <3e> by using method 2.

Also on Odin, it does not show my phone.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
use METHOD 3

hold down both volume buttons as you plug in the usb cable. From a powered off state
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
Now after installing, everything is wiped out, and back to factory state.

When I try to do "Kies mode" it repeats in a loop saying "loading".

All other connections including "media player" goes in a loop.

What should I do?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
do you have kies loaded on your computer?
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
Yes I do. In fact, before bricking my phone, I updated to froyo through kies
[Captivate General] bnbn1382:
Does anyone have a solution to this :( ?
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
quick question:

why do you want such a crappy experience from your captivate? load a custom rom... give andromeda a try

[EVO 4G General] LZLandingZone:
So this is just a little thought I had. And yes, I read the other threads XDA suggested I look at before making this one.

We all know Clear is the one who supplies our 4G WiMax RSA keys, so technically speaking, if your RSA keys are lost, couldn't you technically contact Clear to either A) Obtain a new one, or B) See if they can recover your RSA key using your MEID HEX or DEC.

I'm not sure if this would be possible, seeing how Sprint supplies the device. But at the same time, Clear is the one who allows access to 4G in the first place.

Thoughts?
[EVO 4G General] bkrodgers:
Even if that were technically feasible (and it depends on who's administering the keys), Clear probably has no process in place to do so. Sprint probably *could* fix such a device if they wanted to. But since it's a problem that only applies to people who root the device, they haven't put any such process in place.

I've made an attempt at making a custom boot animation, so far it contains 24 png. Named krb-00002.png to krb-00025.png

I only want these frames to be looped over and over until the device boots.

Do I need 2 folders or can I use just one named part1? or part0.

The images are 320x320 even when I archive it into a zip with no compression the booot animation did not work

I installed the NetFlix Queue manager that uses Adobe Air but am not having any luck getting it to work. It loads but I get a chrome error screen that the page isn't available, I believe that there is some reference to a token missing (or something similar). Anyone know if this issue can be resolved? I love the application on my phone and would love it to work on the tablet as well.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] th3pun1sh3r:
No one is using NetFlix Queue manager? I can't imagine anyone owning a tablet not wanting access to there NetFlix queue. Does this app work for others?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tcrews:
I honestly don't care about managing my queue from the tablet. I do most from my 360 or my PC....so I haven't looked at the app you are looking at.

I only care about watching Netflix on my tablet....and hoping for a Tegra2 supported .apk for this. PlayOn will do it...but I'm not paying an annual fee (PlayOn) for something I'm already paying a monthly fee for (Netflix) since that's all I'd do with it....watch Netflix.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] TarheelGrad1998:
Doesn't work for me either. Yes, I'm disappointed, because I have a media player than only works with the queue, so it'd be nice to be able to use the tab to manage it. Oh well...
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] wtang:
The official Netflix apk that's floating around this forum may not be able to play movies on the GTab, but it works great for managing your Instant Queue.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aplacetorest:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triscuit1983:
There are only 7 frames to the gif so there's not a lot I can do about it being choppy. The more frames, the smoother the animation. I can speed it up more if you like. Test the zips and let me know.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triscuit1983:

Open up the bootanimation.zip as an example to work off of. It has has a folder containing the images and a desc.txt file that tells the animation what to do. I'm not all that good on tutorials so I just googled creating a boot animation. Here's a pretty in depth tutorial.

Hello everyone,

lately I've purchased a class 10 32gb sd card. The first time I got it the instant I put it into my desire z it wouldn't read it, so I sent it in and they gave me a new one made by LG. This one worked and it was working fine all last night and this morning, but then it suddenly gave out and my phone won't read it anymore. Has anybody else had this problem, or has the solution. I am currently running stock rom

[Galaxy Tab General] Landroid:
Hello!

I want you to show how to unbrand your Galaxy Tab to receive updates from Kies.

YOU KNOW THE DRILL. I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGING YOUR TABLET!

****************

this is what you need:

JK5 (<-- official firmware from Kies)

P1_20100909.pit (<-- pit file)

Odin 1.7 (<-- flashing tool)

Samsung Kies (<-- pc-suite for drivers)

P1_20100909.pit is in the same archive as Odin

*****************

normally no files should be deleted but you should make a backup

****************

let's go:

1. install kies

2. extract Odin and run it

3. chose for PIT the pit file

4. for PDA choose P1000OXAJK5.tar

5. tick the box at auto reboot and f. reset time

6. NO CROSS AT REPARTITIONING

7. remove SIM and SD from the Tab

8. Power down the Tab

9. start download mode

10. press start

11. wait 4 minutes

12. it will reboot automatically

13. open the phone app and type *#272*IMEI# and choose your region (your IMEI is *#06#)

14. Ready, you are now able to update over kies.

******************

if the market is missing do a factory reset

type **2767*3855# and reboot (or do it from the recovery)

******************

post your questions here

greetings Landroid

Total noob....especially when it comes to android so don't be too brutal.

But when I tried to get the Android Market up and running it says my device hasn't been rooted. This also occurs when I try to install some other apps such as busybox.

Am I confusing rooting with installing clockwork and custom roms?

[LG Optimus 2x] Eddiemc:
My idea is to create a high contrast white theme, with pure white notification bar and pure white menu popup, and all pure black icons. (i got inspired by HerrKuk's screenshot)

The reason for this is that we're on an lcd device (and black doesn't get black).

When being on the amoled nexus one, there was a strong urge to get everything as black as possible, where as on the O2x, white would be the most battery friendly..

Stock android 2.2 is leaning towards that, but i just do not like the greyishness of stock.

Try SiMi clock with black text and white background and you'll get an idea of the final look that I'm after..

But, the framework needs black text on notification bar to get this theme on stock or paul's rom. I do not know how to do that.

I guess from vanilla rom it would be a walk in the park because it would only need the gray png's tweaked to white, but the handy power widget control for the notification area is not in vanilla android, and I cannot live without it.

Can anybody help me out by either porting power control to vanilla rom, or by changing the framework text on paul's rom to black?
[LG Optimus 2x] Hitchi:
That would be awesome
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
lol, 18 months ago we were working out how to change the text to white to use with black notification bars on stock Android... :)

It can be done, you need to make changes in framework-res.apk xml and services.jar code.

Know how to use apktool (here and here) and smali/baksmali (here)? That's where you need to start.

Once you've got that I can show you where... you'll need these skills if you want to do deep theming anyway.

Cheers mate, I'll look into it and see if I can get my head around it..:confused:

Since I'm impatient I will do up an simple version based off the vanilla rom to start with, and then see if I can do the xml and jar edits for the black bar later;)

I used Root Explorer to change htclockscreen.apk to .bak, so I could get to the stock Android lock screen. I'm having a couple minor issues with it. Just wondering if anybody has fixes.

2) The HTC Clock.apk isn't breaking through the lock screen when the alarm goes off. I imagine this is because the HTC clock.apk is looking for the HTC lock screen. Will replacing it with the stock Android clock.apk fix this? Does anybody know where I can get that?
