[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happyface=):
Im on a mac a sadly no real acces to a windows computer for at least a few weeks. i have gotton a xoom wifi model and would like to root it for several reasons. now to my question would this option Xoom One-Click Root/Unroot (3g and Wifi) Updated 4/13 require me to do the boot loader thing still or no if so is there a thread on it for macs?

Would appreciate the help thank and hope you all have a pleasant (Morning/Afternoon/Evening)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i_am_the_one:
I would say start in the Xoom Wifi root thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010568

For macs i believe you have to add ./ before every command so adb reboot bootloader would become ./adb reboot bootloader

There is also this rooting with mac guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=995108

But i believe the XoomRoot.zip file is for the 3g model so make sure you get the wifi root files from the first link.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samuraix20:
Yes, I searched the original thread of the VEGAn-Tab and can't find any solution and I'm not willing to go through 40+ pages to find it.

Has anyone gotten the flash to work? I downloaded the one from the guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245

... and that didn't work. Then I read the first post of the thread and found out there is the latest flash on the Market, Flash Player 10.2, downloaded that, installed it... that didn't work either. So how do get this ROM to play flash??

EDIT: Ok, never mind, the flash kind of works on Dolphin browser HD all of a sudden after uninstalling and reinstalling many times; I say kind of because I have to tap the player on Youtube to use it. But the browser that came along with the ROM can't play flash.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathcipris:
Works alright over here. Just tested it on homestarrunner. Stock browser.:/
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csantos09:
Sorry to bring up an old topic but I'm currently having the same problems as well. I've installed and reinstalled flash from the guide in Android Development but its not working with the stock browser and Dolphin HD.

I had flash working on VeganTab beta 5.1 but now on the vegan gingeredition, its not. How many times you had to reinstall flash in order to get it working?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gZzam:
Hi!

I can't edit or push anything in/to /system/customize.

I want to push widget.txt (Power Controls) in there but it won't work.

I tried Root Explorer as well as adb.

When I edit the existing file and save it the file just disappears.

When I overwrite the preexisting file, the preexisting is being deleted but the other file never appears.

I also can't create a file or a folder.

Anybody knows what the problem is?

My Desire is running with Leedroid 2.4 btw. And yes I mount it and Root Explorer has su rights.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
You need to be s-off to be able to write to the system partition while booted. If you don't know if you are s-off then you aren't. Best is to use adb while in recovery.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gZzam:
I know that I'm not s-off. I didn't know that you need to be s-off to be able to write to /system/.

I didn't say so anywhere, everywhere you ask for help, it just says "push the file via Root Explorer, that easy".

Must have been punk'd.

I tried with adb, didn't seem to work.

Guess I made something wrong.

I'll try again.

Edit:

"adb remount" gives me the following error:

"remount failed: Unknown error: 0"

Don't know that means, adb devices says that my device is connected.

Any thoughts?

adb devices:

D:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>adb devices

ok guys i been trying this for months, heres what happen, So i update to Froyo via Mini Kies, and after that i flash on a ROM but the phone was blocked so i did a Hard Reset. I used Odin to bring it up to life after that i did put the root file on card trie to run the recovery mood style and was an error message like not recognizer something, then i downloaded the Super one click and it stills with the same problem cannot root the phone, I am thinking is something about drivers, i been reading a lot here before posting this.

Thanks for Help!!!

So 2 question : will I lose all info and data cause I don't have BACK up, how do I perform the downgrade?

Thanks!!!
[General Questions and Answers] JaredIsNinja:
Yes you will lose all data. I suggest you backup contacts and write down which apps you want to reinstall. Search for one click odin back to stock for your phone.
[General Questions and Answers] RicoWRX:
I have the 959 as well. You can do it with the 2.2.1. It's just tricky. What I did(I'm too lazy to revert):

1. Run in debugging mode

2. run superoneclickroot (even if you are still rooted) it will say fail but the ADB helps I guess.

3. also get 3e_revovery_installer and run it in tandum with superoneclick

4. do CWM but don't select rom

5. in 3e_recovery_installer, let it run the ADB server stuff and once it's done, key in (1) to reboot into recovery mode.

6. once in recovery mode on your phone, install packages. It will probably fail and reboot into recovery again. Re-install packages again and it might fail.

7. Reboot and repeat all steps and it should work after you re-install the packages.

8. ENJOY!!!! (weird I know) :D

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ded Muppet:
After the OTA update to EC05, I can no longer connect to my exchange 2003 server via Exchange Active Sync. Also had probs with WiFi hotspot not working and the voice search was eff'd up.

Sprint fixed the Hotspot prob and wanted me to prove exchange active sync is working (kinda hard when it won't work on my phone), so I used the techs phone, entered my info and within 2 sec, it had connected and was ready to configure the settings. This proved to them that it wasn't my server but their software.

When configuring, I de-select the SSL and it can't connect to the server, I select SSL and it says Unable to open connection to server due to security error.

Select both SSL and Accept all SSL certificates and get Cannot connect to server, yet as I stated previously, it worked on the tech's phone and he acknowledged that he had a custom build.

Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
Can you change what port the SSL connection is attempting to use?

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanaraya92679:
I have seen this issue on motorola devices but personally never had this happen to me. I use my phone on a 2003 exchange server. In fact 70 percent of the people at my job have company android phones, either htc or samsung branded. Some motos but moto has problems. One thing i could recommend is download touchdown email app trial and it sometimes kick starts your active sync. I'm also not on stock rom if that makes any difference.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott4957:
I have a rooted Inspire, followed the hack kit. Wanted to go to CM 7 so I put the CM7 kernel and CM7 its self on my SD, flashed the CM7 kernel with clockwork and got stuck at the HTC quietly brilliant screen, just keeps loading over and over. So I tried flashing CM7, just got stuck on the CM7 screen loading over and over.

Flashed my original ROM in the hack kit, and the stock kernel and I am in the same place. Cleared all the cache, no luck.

Someone help please, Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
This is in the wrong section should be in general.

Pull your battery, redownlaod cm7 wipe data, cache, and dalvik, then flash the rom. Post with results.

don't flash the kernel and the rom at the same time. Flash rom, full boot, reboot then flash kernel.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott4957:
full bott? Sorry new to this, in over my head i guess. Should it boot up fully after the rom? then reboot and do the kernel?
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Yes, flashing both the custom rom and a custom kernel right after another can end up with a soft brick (htc white screen rebooting).
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott4957:
wipeing the data did it, I have it back the way it was before, minus all my data, luckly my contacts were synced with an exchange server. I had a lot of my apps moved to SD, how do I get those back?

Thanks again for your help!
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Should have done a back up with ti, ti should be able to install the ones on your sd card. Also if you need help please refer to my guide in general. Just search [guide] in the general section.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott4957:
Great, I will give ti a try and see if that works. I knew to do a backup first, but went ahead with the flash anyways. I needed to clean it up any how so I guess it worked out OK. Thanks again for all your help, I will be sure to check out your guide.

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] the_scotsman:
Devs are allowed to install warez as part of their ROM. But no one is allowed to post installer files for Swype as this will be considered warez. If you want it, sign up for the beta.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ChrisAC84:
Ok, I just got the Galaxy S 4G today, and it is by far the slowest piece of crap I have ever used. It was going very slow, this is even after I immediately took one back and exchanged it for another. It took it over an hour to finally sync my google contacts. I'm still waiting (5 hours later) for it to finish synching my gmail. I rooted it, hoping that might help, but to no avail. I tried to download a new launcher from the Market, but again, that is taking ages to even begin downloading. It says it's running on 4G, but I can't see it. This is slow, even for Edge. Am I missing something? I am really considering taking it back tomorrow for the G2 and just buying the HTC Sensation in a few months (getting that anyway, lol)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bl4ckpheniX:
Sounds like your data plan has been throttled back. Cause mine is fast and smooth for still running rfs

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Harhar321:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ChrisAC84:
Should I take it back and switch it for yet another one? I know the possibility of getting two bad phones is slim, but it IS possible

EDIT: Ok, I did a hard reset. Finally managed to get the market downloading like it should, everything synched up nicely. Now my only issue is USB mass storage won't work. It allows me to turn it on. (EDIT: As I typed this out, the drive recognized it, it just took a long time lol)

Instead of ranting about the phone's poor performance, why not read through the stickies and try to figure it out yourself? People forget that these are still phones after all, and not a mobile computer. :rolleyes:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ChrisAC84:
Well, thanks for the useful input, especially the last two posters. The purpose of this thread was to find out if all the phones were like this, or perhaps I got a bad one. I have an Evo, and it runs smoothly. I know what a phone should be, this one runs worse than my G1 did years ago. And I did a search, and found nothing that pertained to the 4G, just the original Galaxy S. I read all about freeing up the internal memory, removing the fota files, bloatware, etc. All of this I already did with my Evo, and every Android phone I've had before that. I simply posted here to see if I could find out why this "new" phone was performing so poorly out of the box.

The Biggest Let Down About This Phone Is...It's XDA Forum

I have had my phone for 2 weeks now and am generally happy with it. I now look at my HD2 and can't believe I carried that beast around. Just as I did with my HD2 I come to XDA everyday and read through the forum. Though I rarely post, except for an issue I can't fix on my own, I have to say that the biggest let down about having this phone has been it's XDA forum.

What type of forum do you want this to be? Do you want this to be the type of forum where the uninitiated are intimidated to post or to get involved because they frequently see some uptight, douche who flames a poster like they had just killed his dog? He called your phone slow. And?

I really don't think that is what will grow this into a dynamic forum where those looking for answers or knowledge will add a bookmark and return to then download (and donate/buy a beer) for a developer. Take a look at some of the more popular phone specific forums here and you will notice that in general flaming is frowned upon and there is a sense of community.

I'm sorry that my first introduction to the 'community' of SGS4G owners and phone enthusiasts has been like this, but if the regulars here don't begin to welcome new posts then this will become a forgotten forum lacking any real content.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] golmar88:
Could not have said it better myself!

How hard is it, that if someone posts something you don't agree with/you feel is stupid, to just move on? At least put your 2 cents in, in a constructive way.

For some reason the vibrant forums were the worst at these practices. Even to the point of dev's quiting/taking there work elsewhere.

Please, I beg of you, don't make this forum as hostile of an enviroment as the vibrants'. It is just as easy to link someone to the help they need, or help them yourself as it is to flame them.

That being said 80% of the community feel this way. The other 20% are just more vocal and therefore seem like the majority. We have a great comminity to work with, please don't judge the whole because of a few disrespectful people.
