Yes drivers installed. And adb worked fine on my vibrant so dont know why it wouldnt work now. If I go to terminal and type adb it goes through the normal text as before.

Edit: my bad no it doesnt list anything when I type adb devices. How do I fix this...

sent from my side of the galaxy....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
sometimes it doesn't work for me unless i cd into my adb directory. i have the path setup properly in environment variables, but other apps throw crap in there and i think that messes it up. try installing droid explorer http://de.codeplex.com/

it sets up it's own sdk directory. and will reinstall your usb drivers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] skyhigh2004:
Yeah that won't even install I keep getting key length to short or not strongly named errors, very wierd ****.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
sounds like you've got some puter issues. when was the last time you used adb successfully? maybe make a restore point then do a system restore to that time? you can always go back to the restore point you make.

I've attached a zip file that contains a root and an unroot file that you should just be able to double click once your G2x is connected to your mac. After you double click one file, it will open a terminal window with info on what it's doing. You don't need any drivers or anything - it should just work.

Please let me know how it goes. I've tested them thoroughly on my phone.

HI!

I was using wmtorrent on my HTC maple, after I installed the custom 3vo ROM.

Now after I entered the current date, the wmtorrent application asks me to register.

Can anyone give me the original factory date that's on the phone when you first install the custom ROM?

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] Grimacexl:
Hey there, I recently purchased a Bell Atrix 4G. I rooted it and everything was going fine, so I thought I'd try the gingerblur rom for the device, the tutorial site didn't mention anything about not using it on a Bell Atrix, which I found out later was a bad idea (I did make a backup though at the backup prompt). So needless to say the phone is now at the "M screen flashing red led boot loop". What I wanted to know, is if that since I have access to fast boot, if there's any way to restore from that backup.tar file, or if I can use an at/t sbf file to restore to (I didn't try it in fear of making things worse). Thanks in advance!
[Atrix 4G General] Gutterball:
Whatever you do DO NOT USE THE ATT SBF! That is not meant for bell devices and will definetly make your situation even worse!
[Atrix 4G General] Grimacexl:
Yeah, I figured that would be the case.

Working on trying to push my backup files to my device atm

[Atrix 4G General] Grimacexl:
Yeah, the tutorial I used didn't say to not use it on bell atrix, but when it messed up, I went to all the other tutorials that have it in red, so I do feel pretty stupid.
[Atrix 4G General] Grimacexl:
Well, it's all good now, After pushing bell backup app and framework folders, I managed to get a working device (all be it with some force close crap which I'll iron out later) The device is working.

Having some issues with the Royal Glacier ROM

I have version V1.2 & Froyo Faux123-V0.9.3 Kernel

Im getting foreclosing issues with apps

Video camera lags at times

Notification issues with some apps

I thought the ROM with this Kernel was the best to slove the issues?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
How long have you been having issues and did you use titanium backup to restore apps? That is the kernel that came with the Rom, have you tried any others? I am not sure why you would be having FC isuues or lag. My suggestion would be to wipe cache and dalvik cache and then reinstall the rom over the top of your current one. If that doesnt work, you can try a full data wipe/factory reset. Royal Glacier v1.3 will be out soon. You can also try that.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FenderGuy:
I did not back up apps as I was ok with downloading them again, since I don't have that many apps on my phone. I believe the kernel was not on the ROM when I flashed it over. I read the thread about changing kernels, which I did.

I followed all information to the teeth when I rooted my phone, if i do a full wipe my phone will still be rooted S off correct? ROM first then Kernel, correct?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleepyfu:

Sorry, I read the wrong title on the thread. These issues are happening to me in Royal Ginger 1.6
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:

it wont let me edit yet, but forgot to say, I am useing the kernels that came with the roms, I didnt try any other, also I did a full wipe before going to 1.3, cleared all data
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrueBlue_Drew:
My suggestion for both of you would be to give the stock kernel from post #5 in my thread a flash and see if that helps anything. Make sure to wipe cache and dalvik first. That at least gives us a starting point to try and figure out what is going on. Thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChaosSaber:
I formatted the system from step 5, I didnt do that the first time and I believe that fixed the upside down screen, mostly just having a prob with the Market FC'ing, so I will run the stock kernel to see if that will fix the Market FC'ing, I will run this stock for a while and let you know the out come of it TrueBlue_Drew, Thanks

Update: I have ran the stock kernel all day and no Market FC, Normaly it's random but hasn't done it at all today so far

Any body know about how to made own Android os for MID/Tablet....thank's
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
After having shared this on the #epic channel, I decided to share it here... This is for kernel devs who've incorporated mkasick's sysfs keyboard patch, located here.

This kernel mod and accompanying script are meant to be used in conjunction with mkasick's epic keyboard patch, and will perform the following:

1) Allow the kernel developer to easily choose the initial timer_delay value for the patch

2) Allow the end user to adjust the setting, and have it persist past boot

3) Checks user input for the setting, and not allow settings to occur that will make the keyboard unresponsive, or unusable

Files:

keytimer_initscript.sh

keytimer

Instructions for kernel devs:

1) Take the script inside keytimer_initscript.sh, and add it to your custom initscript called from init.rc

Note: place after the init.d section, or theimpaler747 script will overwrite the keytimer script.

2) Place the keytimer script inside your initramfs /sbin

Instructions for users:

1) Have a kernel with this mod inside, like mine:

DRockstar.Clean.Kernel.EC05.v1.02.zip

Note: Other kernel devs have this now, so it should come to your favorite kernel soon!

Also: If your current kernel has the mkasick sysfs keyboard patch, but not my kernel mod, you can take the keytimer script, and place it /system/xbin, and chmod 755 /system/xbin/keytimer. Without my kernel mod, the setting won't persist through a reboot, but it will give you an easy way to change the setting.

2) Open Connectbot or Android Terminal, and type su

3) type command: keytimer

it will show usage and the current value, the default is 7.

example use to change to theimpaler747 value of 5:

keytimer 5

Accepted values are 1 through 16.

The change will be immediate, and will persist after reboot.

Hope you all like this one, enjoy it!

CODE:

keytimer_initscript.sh :

#!/system/bin/sh
# keytimer script to be called by init.rc, written by DRockstar for the Epic 4G
# assumes busybox is already installed
# kernel developers may just copy script to existing custom init script
# can be adjusted by accompanied keytimer script in /sbin

# keyboard patch sysfs call 7 for snappy keyboard performance
if [ ! -f "/data/local/timer_delay" ]; then
echo 7 > /data/local/timer_delay
fi
cat /data/local/timer_delay > /sys/devices/platform/s3c-keypad/timer_delay

keytimer :

#!/system/bin/sh
# keytimer shortcut script by DRockstar

usage()
{
echo "keytimer: shortcut for Epic 4G keyboard response time"
echo "usage: keytimer , 7 is default, 1 - 16 accepted"
}

usage
echo "error: $1"
exit
}

if [ "$1" = "" ]; then

usage
echo "current keytimer value is $timer"
exit
fi

case $1 in *[!0-9]*)
error "input is not a positive number"
esac

if [ $1 -gt 16 ]; then
error "only numbers 1 - 16 are accepted"

keep up the good work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
OK, links fixed, with code also posted.

Posted instructions for those who just want to use keytimer script, in case your favorite kernel doesn't have the keytimer mod installed yet, but has the keyboard patch installed.

Thanks to Rodderik for server space, after fossnet server got toasted.

Peace!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mkasick:
I'm pleased that folks are making good use of the sysfs patch, and making the user-side keytimer configuration much more approachable and useful. Thanks for doing this, it means a lot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blazinazn:
Sorry for asking this noob question but I just want to clarify. This is the stock Kernel with mkasicks fix to allow for the keyboard tweaks correct?

Nothing else is different about the kernel? If so, this is exactly what I was looking for.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Updated the kernel download to v1.02... which fixed some apps like metamorph not working with the location I set for busybox.

I need to make a post for the kernel now... sources are now posted at github.com/DRockstar.

to answer the previous question, yes, this kernel is intended to be a simple rooted kernel, based off samsung stock, with only simple mods ... its feature are:

* Root and busybox with minimal system mods

* designed to allow OTA update after flashing back the stock kernel

* mkasick sysfs keyboard patch, with my keytimer script

* voodoo sound 7 by supercurio, controlled by voodoo control app in android market

* additonal custom scripts in /sbin for cleaning root, busybox, and flash kernels and recoveries

This kernel was built to replace the traditional one click root method for my all in one root and recovery script.

[Captivate General] Kaik541:
it's not Friday! anyway, there have already been two other leaks for Gingerbread besides this (though this one went out through KIES and is likely official). this isn't any use for us until sources drop.

then you can at least reorient the kernel and whatnot.

edit: should also add, no development related to this, just a gingerbread announcement therefore general.
[Captivate General] brd912:

[Captivate General] brd912:

Well for one I think this means they have to release source in the coming weeks.

They don't have any obligation to do that for a leak...

Sent from my SGH-I897
[Captivate General] joeshmoe08:
It is because official updates usually means a stable bugfree version of gingerbread for our devices so that it can be used as a base for custom roms or if it is good enough, use as it is rooted/deodexed.
[Captivate General] cumanzor:
hey Kaik, when (if) the source becomes available, will this help in any way the CM7 development for the SGS?
[Captivate General] Sarcoid:
Did you read all of the post?

Unless you think that part in bold is sarcasm... that kind of sounds like it means it'll help CM7 development.:confused:

[General Questions and Answers] highlander74:
Hi every body,

To start with, in order to avoid asking stupid questions, I've been trying to fix the problem and searching posts for about a month now (ironically, this might have been my mistake, trying everything possible ;)

The answer to the question "why the heck did you do such a stupid thing?!" can be found at the end of the post, for those who has the time ;) for others who are willing to help, and I'd be thankful for any, here are the details:

Device:

European Galaxy Tab P1000 16Gb 3G

Serial Number: you wish! :))

Device is rooted and HAD the latest official update provided with Kies

Current state:

- Device stuck at the Samsung Galaxy Tab screen

- No recovery mode (volume-up + power on)

- Download mode still works (volume-down + power on

How did it happen:

It all started as I replaced the framework.jar and a couple of other libraries using adb (why the $$$$ No. 1). this would have been no problem, if I have left usb-debugging switched on after that, but I switched the usb-debugging off(why the $$$$ No. 2). After that I couldn't restore them using adb, logically...

I tried flashing several frameworks with no success. at the beginning, my mistake was using wrong combination of pit-files and roms.

The cause of all evel:

at a certain point I decided flashing with the clear efs option selected (why the $$$$ No. 3). Now I know I shouldn't have done that. especially that I have no backup of the original efs.

What does NOT work

Flashing with Odin or Heimdall theoretically works (I get no errors, the process finishes successfully and the device restarts). Still, it's stuck at the same Samsung Galaxy Tab screen, and still no recovery mode (volume-up + power also shows the same screen).

I tried flashing different samfirmwares and Rotos (using the propper pit-files and stricktly following instructions) to no avail.

I also tried flashing both with the sim and sd-card in the device, and after removing them.

so please HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!

why the $$$$ did I have to do this :) :

1. replacing firmware.jar: I wanted to add native arabic language support and I found this post on the internet providing instructions and jars - of course, it was a mistake to do it, but it's too late for that now, isn't it :(

2. switching the usb-debugging off: I wanted to copy files to the external card. I have no idea what I was thinking! first of all, I should have first tested whether the stupidity in point 1 have worked, second of all I can still access the sd-card with the debugging switched on! but I didn't know that at the time.

3. clearing the efs: Now, you didn't expect a logical explanation here, did you? :)) I was frustrated and said what the heck! Ok ok, have your laugh, call me stupid and all you want - I deseved it :)

So, once again, any help would be just great!

Thanks in advance,

Moh

If your EFS is gone then you'll need to take the device to Samsung for repair. Samsung may be able to regenerate the EFS data based on the hardware, or they'll have to replace the mainboard.
