[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Little question here, why would you delete ROM manager after?

@ OP - Please read some more before trying what has been suggested here. Trusselo gave you a good rundown which isn't too hard to do (there are also vid on it). A little reading could save your android, that coming from a guy that is usually hasty to act (notice how I bricked my 1st cappy :rolleyes: )
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
most custom roms have CWM built into the kernel. rom manager and the update.zip with cwm are no longer needed with one of the cwm kernels.

and custom roms usually have the advanced power menu. boot to recovery/download easy peisy

rom manager only confuses people if you have both. took me a couple weeks to learn that..

bricked my first one too, kinda, (coulda fixed it) but couldn't wait and had it only days, easy exchange with in-store dummies.. lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slevy951:
So I looked at Rom Manager on my phone.

Since the wife's on stock 2.2 and rooted. Seems that I can just d/l Rom Manager on her's. Copy the new rom to the SD. And use Rom Manager to flash it.

Can it be that simple?

And yes, I've been doing alot of reading. But, some of you guys talk a different language.....

Thanks again.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
No, it's not that simple, on 2.2 with the 3e recovery you will get a signing error when trying to flash and it won't work. Follow the suggestions and just use odin with the 3 button fix to get to 2.1
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talbtimber:
To get into download did you try removing battery from captivate, start Odin, plug USB cable to PC and captivate, hold both volume keys, and reinstall battery? On Stock that's the only way I can get into download. There is a thread on here with more detail but that's how I do it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slevy951:
Yep, tried that one.

Spent a couple hours on this last night. I isntalled Rom Manager. That will get the phone into recovery. But, since it's 3e, doesn't do me any good. Signature errors. No matter what I do, can't get the phone into download mode. Last night I even tried with adb. The phone just reboots normally with the adb reboot download command.

I know your gonna say there is the 3e fix, keep reading. I found it. But, really didn't understand it. And I don't want to brick the phone. I think the wife is going to be staying on stock 2.2 at this point. I don't know what else to do.

Thanks to all.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Buiding a JIG is quite simple and cheap, you should try it.

Also, you can pm me for 3e recovery. I'll give you a nice rundown - It's quite easy, just not well explained on the thread :)

:confused::(:o Hi all,

I've just installed [27.MAR][CWM] NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.5 [Android2.3.3][Kernel: tytung_r8.3] onto my HTC HD2. Very pleased with the result, except I did not realise that there was no FM Radio :eek:

So my question is, is there an FM Radio addon that I can use for this build?
[HD2 General] pappt:
The FM Radio is blocked by Google in the NexusOne by default, and because that rom is a NexusOne port, so that is the reason why is not FM radio in it
[HD2 General] imfloflo:
Cyanogenmod 7 have FM radio on NexusOne kernel and an apps thanks to MIUI team
[HD2 General] Skellyyy:
You might be able to push the MIUI radio (cm7 one) to /apps. Just look for the MIUI FM Radio.apk and do some research. ;)

We need to wait for one of the Devs to port the Legend ROM to the X8 and add all the Drivers and modify the build.prop for the X8 and package it up into an update.zip or an xrecovery Backup file before we'll have the stable CM7.

[Optimus 7 General] inscythe:
Hi guys,

I just got my Optimus 7, and I managed to do a simple debranding to get it to NoDo. However, I forgot that ChevronWP7 doesn't work on NoDo (I've been waiting for my student developer account to be approved, but it is taking too long), and I plan to downgrade. There are selections of ROMs in the development section, and I have downloaded a few of them, but not sure which one to choose. Can anyone suggest which one is suitable for my phone? Also taking into account the possibility of future updates, which region will get the update the soonest?

FYI, my phone is bought through Singaporean carrier, but weirdly enough, was branded Optus Australia (that is why I had to debrand, as Singaporean carriers already had NoDo, but not in Aussie yet).

Thanks...
[Optimus 7 General] kapanak:
Oh, WAIT! Do not DO IT!

Hahahaha.

LG Optimus 7 does not need that buggy Chevron unlock.

Visit the developer forum for this device, just a couple of lines under this one, and you will find a MUCH simpler way of unlocking your device.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davekojo:
Hi Guys

I am upgrading to a SGS i9000. Previously had a Motorola Milestone, custom kernel is new to me.

I've been searching and couldn't find anything. I want to load gingerbread XXJVK and use SpeedMod Kernel. Will this cause any problems? If I do experience problems would it be straight forward to go back to stock kernel?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
Speedmod is a kernel designed to run with Froyo, not Gingerbread. Many custom 2.3.3 ROMs have you install Speedmod as an intermediary step just to get CWM installed, but it will not work with JVK. You will need to install one of the kernels specifically designed to support JVK.

I STRONGLY suggest you read the many threads posted here about JVK and the process of flashing to it, AFTER you have read the stickies about flashing ROMs on the i9000. Foreknowledge is always better than Support Calls.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davekojo:
Thanks for the advice. I keep going back to the stickies about flashing ROMs to i9000. I guess I will keep reading.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myrddral:
There's no source to work from... so there's no speedmod as of now. Your best shot could be supercurio's hacked JVK kernel which can convert partitions to ext4. But remember, the rom is still a beta.

Hi

I have same like ur problem.

did u managed to fix it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] i_seeque:
ns pro never corrupts the imei of galaxy s 4g. {t959v}. I ve unlocked many such galaxy 4gS.

IMEI corruption had occured must be due to incorrect ( ' i9000 modem unlock patch file') flashing with z3x followed by a repair attempt with the ns pro modem repair file. AND then some desperate attempts with ODINs also.

So many files now on board - try your luck OR wait for a pro solution to be released.

Hi Kenzo888, Upon searching I do not have the .nv file or the or the md5 file either. All I see is the nv_data.bin file in the /efs/root folder and one /efs folder.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kenzo888:
U sure that ur files is nv_dat.din and nv_data.binrm ?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] fatherof4:
I had this problem and it is because the app is supposed to take the nvdata.bin out change the codeing to make the phone unlocked and then it puts the file back in the phone and your unlocked. If it is not there then the app failed to restore the .bin and thats why u have no imei. Find the file and push it back with the adb method for unlock. I do not like these unlocking apps. they can cause too much bs if they do not operate properly. I use adb to extract the file to my sd card and then place on desktop and edit the file with a hex editor. U only have to change a few 0's to 1's or vice versa and its super easy if u follow the thread about how to unlock the sgs 4g with this method. (can't remember which one but it is in our forum for sure) Then u push your nvdata.bin back to the phone with adb and ur unlocked. To relock the phone u do the same method and change back what u changed to unlock it. ( 0's to 1's or vice versa. just read the thread.)

I'm kind of in the same boat.

I bought a phone off craigslist didn't work now im stuck with a phone i can use wireless on. attempting to make a call, the call drops instantly , received calls go straight to voicemail.

after researching all this past week.. i've noticed the following probles so here is my situation at hand.

i have the IMEI issue with corrupted characters except mine says 04 at the end.

unable to root.

unable to put this phone in download mode

(attempting to fix the imei issue reflashing with odin)

I have no back up files

unable to enter recovery mode manually. I read from another thread someone was able to do so using t mobile one click root program for vibrant ,

which works for this, but when i tried to root i get e signature verification fail issue as well.

I've read countless threads and forums and about to inquire to samsung or t-mobile for a repair. my aim is to get this phone operable.

i'd like to help myself on the issues but find myself at a dead end with being unable to put in download mode ,and yes ive tried the different methods of holding buttons/ inserting usb.

and at another dead end being unable to get this rooted because of signature verification fails.. any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

I tried once and make a disaster, maybe because I used the google apps update.zip as source :)

you should make an update.zip package. your method is too complicated for a noob... and a preview is also a most recommended thing :)

[Venue Pro General] pibrahim:
I ordered my DVP from Clove on Thursday and it arrived on Friday - I decided to go with them rather than Dell directly given the various communication issues people have had with Dell.

My DVP is 8GB - I'm assuming there is only one version of the phone for the UK market, I haven't seen any option to buy a 16GB version. So far, everything has worked smoothly - it came loaded with firmware .7350 if I remember correctly, I then got the prompt to upgrade to NoDo pretty soon after - that was done very quickly, nothing like the 23 minutes that Microsoft suggested.

All in all, I'm happy - no crashing whatsoever, interface is very smooth and quick, etc. My only complaint so far is the lack of custom ringtones - this should've been addressed in NoDo and its pretty obvious that Microsoft has held back on this to try and make money - the only simple alternative is to get ringtones from the Marketplace which Microsoft of course makes a commission on. Oh yeah, my other bugbear is the battery life - it's pretty horrendous, I'd say I struggle to get a day out of it! Is that normal?

These small things aside, I'm pretty happy with the DVP at the mo.... any other UK owners having a similar problem-free usage?
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
I am an Omnia 7 owner but I've been thinking about switching. Just a couple of points:

- Dell is selling the 16GB as far as I know, someone else can confirm that.

- Battery is something that improves overtime, you need to go through a few charging cycles. During the first days I would suggest letting the battery die before charging the phone rather than straight when you hit low power.

Can you comment on the issues the US phones are having (Wifi connection, poor camera, etc.). And also, is the SD card slot still accessible?

Cheers :)
[Venue Pro General] Ganondolf:
I have the 16gb model (uk) which is the model dell sells directly. if you buy throgh a third party you can only get the 8gb model at the moment.

can good in light but poor in the dark (bluring)

the sd card has the black tape over it and the manual says not to remove it.

i only get crashes/hangs when downloading large files from the marketplace and when trying to download a video through the youtube apps.
[Venue Pro General] Peew971:
I can't believe after all this time they're still producing the phone with the same camera issue. What have they been doing with all the feedback?! I know they have an upcoming update but it should have been one to fix the firsts phones with the new ones being flawless. Dell needs a good kick.
