[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KBEscalona:
Thanks for all that responded. So i just download alpharev for desire and flash it by Clockworkmod then that's it right?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
No, read the instructions on AlphaRev or this tutorial. Make sure you understand what you are doing and that the md5 matches.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tillus:
no. You dont "flash" alpharev. Alpharev actually flashes another hboot.

Please do some reading before flashing anything...

What are you actually trying to achieve? Root or s-off or both?

If you want to root, use unrevoked and untick disable security since it doesnt work for gsm-Desire. If you want S-Off you to the alpharev-s-off-procedure afterwards.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mclaren2:
have a look at this guide here:

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/gain-s-off-on-htc-desire-gsm-with-alpharev-1-8-custom-hboot/

its step by step and so easy that even an idiot like me could do it today just some hours ago with success.

good luck! :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KBEscalona:
To All,

Just done some reading regarding Alpha rev. I already downloaded it and burned it in a dvd. Unfortunately, Alpha rev says my version is unsupported but my Hboot is 0.94. Anyway try again. Thanks guys for the help.

I'll give all updates what happens. (Hopefully i won't brick it).

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
Hi,

I got a NS replacement a couple days ago, and yesterday I noticed something weird with calls - whenever I reject an incoming call, I'm unable to make calls myself for a good while. Rebooting the phone solves the issue, and just leaving the phone alone for an extended period of time seems to fix it too, but only until the next time I reject a call.

I really don't feel like returning the phone, so I'd like to know if this is a known problem and there's a solution to it, or if I should just send it back and ask for a (second) replacement.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
At this point it would also be useful if you just confirm that you DON'T have the issue - I just want to know if other Nexii have it or not, so that I can ask for a replacement.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
Guys, I really only need you to call yourselves from another phone, reject the call and then try to place a call, see if it works. Would that be possible?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Si_NZ:
Works fine with CM7.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deejaylobo:
Reject and call back working fine for me.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
Thanks guys! Then it's confirmed that the problem is in my phone. Gonna call for a replacement.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savage0:
hey, I installed the CM7 today by using the clockworkmod 0.8 (I used the VEgan 5.11 before )

I wipe cache partition, wipe data, wipe, wipe Dalvik Cache

but when I wipe Dalvik Cache, there is a error: can't mount dev/block/mmcblk0p2

anyway, I install the CM7 successfully... but I am a little worried about that erro...

so why this error appear? what is that mean?

do I need to fix this error and then reinstall the CM7?

sorry for so much naive question! thanks!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butchconner:
savage0,

I've read two or three explanations for why that

error comes up -- but I really don't know why.

I do know that a pile of folks have been getting

that message almost since the G-Tablet came

out and I have never heard of it meaning anything

significant -- or anyone having problems as a

result.

Forget it is my advice.

Rev
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Exactly. Had that issue since my first flash and nothing fixes it. On the good side, like the Rev says, it has no known meaning or consequence.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamontryst:
im gettting the same error, but when i try to mount /data, and now im stuck in a constant boot loop
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
The correct error message actually is:

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk2p2
(File exists)

As butchconner said, it's a harmless error message. It just means that

a) You don't have an external SD card in the SD card slot, or

b) If you do have one, it does not have a second partition on it. Most likely, you have a SD card with a single VFAT partition.

When you select the "Wipe Dalvik Cache" option, CWM does, basically, this:

1. Mounts the /data partition. This, on the gTablet, is the second partition (Linux ext3 type) on the internal SD card, /dev/block/mmcblk3.

2. Mounts the /sd-ext partition. This is the second partition (generally of Linux ext3 type) on the external SD card, /dev/block/mmcblk2.

3. Mounts the /cache partition. This is a yaffs2 filesystem (on /dev/block/mtdblock4) on the in-built NAND flash chip.

4. Prints a "Confirm wipe?" message and a "Yes - Wipe Dalvik Cache" menu.

5. Removes the entire /data/dalvik-cache directory tree.

6. Removes the entire /cache/dalvik-cache directory tree.

7. Removes the entire /sd-ext/dalvik-cache directory tree.

The error message you noticed comes at step 2 because there is no external SD card, or, the external SD card does not have 2 partitions on it.

The second line, "(File exists)", is the left-over result of a mkdir() system call used to create the mount-point directory which already exists.

If you can read C code and wish to look at this further, look at the show_advanced_menu() function here:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery/blob/gingerbread/extendedcommands.c

The link is for a newer version of CWM, so the error message is different.

Cheers!

Hi every one

is there is a way to run any Custom rom on Vibrant that is fully stable has every thing working But with a Fully MIUI Looks? and I am not talking about a miui theme that only change the icon and the back ground. I am talking about menus, the way every thing looks in miui rom.

Thanks for Looking Guys
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medoo313:
Thanks for the respond. I will ask him
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
you aren't going to be able to have the miui menus that you like, without miui.

no editing .png files is going to help that, and no theme will fill that void.

Its officially supported and some GB code is leaking out. It won't be too much longer in my opinion before both CM7 and MIUI will be perfect...

Samsung COUGH COUGH needs to release some code.

Hi guys, sorry if this sounds simple, but the only other thread related to my Q is this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=947122 and it isn't very helpful.

Anyway, I noticed a little problem since I switched to StarBurst: Google and YahooMail (both via K-9 Mail) are unable to send mail when I'm connected via wifi. K-9 keeps trying to resend every few minutes, but "Sending failed: connection reset by peer" keeps popping up. Any remedies? Btw, I tried other wifi spots, and the same thing happened. I've also tried reflashing the ROM and its Data2SD reinstaller, but still no success.

Nothing wrong there, same settings as before. Tried e-mailing using stock Mail app, same thing. Tried different wifi spots, same result. Might be something with the ROM or radio.

Help, anyone? I've already done the 3 wipes (data, cache, dalvik), reflashed my ROM, restored Titanium Backup, and still the problem persists. Might it be my ROM (Starburst 1.3.3.4)? I never encountered this problem with LeeDroid or MIUI.
[XPERIA X10 General] mrmoav:
Question for anyone...I can't post in Dev forum and have searched for answer....anyway

Having issue in stock ROM 1.0.4. where the SMS keyboard just disappears when typing. I can easily get it back by tapping in text field but it will happen consistently. This seems to happen the most if I'm texting the same person over an extend time. Lets say 12 to 14 texts without leaving the sms app. Then poof ill be typing keyboard vanishes and the cursor input just jumps to random places in the text box. This keyboard will then just start disappearing after almost every word i type...so frustrating. Have already tried 3 fresh Reinstalls from 2.1 to Trips but still happens every time.

just seeing if anyone else has experienced this anomaly

Otherwise this is an unbelievable ROM after running clean install. Everything else works flawlessly. AWESOME

[General Questions and Answers] mpnuttall:
Hi All

Yep, there are a lot of posts about Desire's stuck on boot screens I know - and I've read them all but nothing seems to fins a solution to my problem sadly.

I'm having an issue running Oxygen 2.0.3 signed release on my HTC Desire, spec as follows:

Radio 5.14.05.17

HBoot 0.93

PVT4

S-ON

ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.7

I did all the data, boot, and system wipes/formats recommended before installing new ROMs, and installed the zip from my SD card through ClockworkMod.

All is well on first boot - had it running happily for a couple of days. Then I turned the phone off and on again and it only boots as far as the white screen with the green HTC text, and progresses no further. When I go back to my Nandroid backup of the rooted stock ROM things appear to function as they should, if that makes any difference to a diagnosis.

I've tried reinstalling this ROM twice with the exact same result.

Can anyone help? I've had crashes with pretty much every ROM I've tried so far and, apart from this one considerable problem, Oxygen had been looking the most promising. I'm starting to wish I hadn't rooted at all - can't get a stable OS running at all since doing it, and getting really fed up :(

Thanks very much for any help.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aemee:
I know there have been qurstions asked on this topic but i would like to ask if an app is able to disable this leds?

I personally hate those leds at night since its too darn bright when ive dimmed my screen. I recently stumbled across an app, Lightning Bug, which has a feature to turn off said leds. Unlike my screen filter, this app actually does disable the leds as long as i am in the app. Would it be possible to port this feature to the X10? Im no tech guy so i may be ignorant on this stuff. Hope someone can clarify.

Apologies if i double posted. XDA App FC during initial submission..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:

Thx for replying but i already am using that app. Its not disabling the leds on my X10. Its updated and from haxor so its the same as yours.

Have you checked the option that disables the leds? Is set to let the leds on by default.

Dont worry, i did that. But my problem is solved. Thanks for your help. I tried reinstalling app, no help. So i reflashed my X10 and reinstalled. Now its working.
[Focus General] Seed 2.0:
time and $...

Last Wednesday my Focus fell victim to my dumb arse! I had it in my dress shirt breast pocket and as I bent over to pick up laundry in basement is slid out and landed flush with the concrete floor. It made a simple, solid, thud. I watched it fall but missed it while trying to grab it. I knew it was toast cause it landed directly on the screen, not on the sides at all. I picked it up to see the screen shattered. The cracks through out had very sharp edges. There were very small shards on the floor and small gaps in phone's screen where they were missing.

However... The phone still worked, touch response and accuracy was still 100% pre-break. The cracks on a white back ground looked horrible. The cracks on a black back ground were almost invisible. When phone was off, only where a nice ~.5mm wide 4.5mm long gap was visible at all angles. The glass looks to be 1-2 mm thick based on the appearance of the cracks when looking at an angle. It looks much thiner then I thought it was.

I contacted AT$T for advise, they gave me Samsung Repairs phone number. I called them. I told them the truth how it broke. Admitted fault, etc... They told me it would be $156.78 to replace the screen. He put me on hold for ~4min and he came back and told me that since I was still under warranty and only had for 6 months that they were charging me $70.36. They took the payment over phone via credit card. They emailed me a UPS Ground label. They told me it would take 5-7 days once they get it, to ship it back to me (5-7 days return shipping if UPS ground). I paid $5 to USPS to priority it to them. I didn't want 5 days of UPS shipping time added to my wait.

Now, her is the interesting part. I used the chevron.updater to put NODO on my phone. I had no issues at all and was very happy with the update. My phone had no other mods or tools used on it. They told me my phone would be

restored to original factory state

before returning it to me. Do you guys (I do) think it will return with NODO still on it? Or will they notice and re-flash the ROM? OR, do they just send a refurbished devise back as standard procedure?

Samsung Repairs in Plano, TX received the phone on Saturday. I'm hoping they just send a refurbished back to me on Mon-Tues so I have a phone by Monday the 25th. I assume the ship back UPS ground, 5-7 days.

The Focus is my first smartphone. I'm currently using my old phone, LG Xenon. It feels like I bought the best gaming rig out there and hooked up to 56K modem. Talk about withdraw.... :) My focus was saving me on average an hour a week in drive times to and from work alone with the bing map/traffic feature. I look forward to my next upgrade just so my backup phone can at least be comparable to the new one. I will post an update if I get word from Samsung, any change in price or delays, and when it gets returned with my opinion of the experience.
[Focus General] domineus:
70 bucks is NOT bad I just sent my phone in and I'm also sending my hd2 in soon
[Focus General] PaullikesWINMO:
$70 plus small shipping charge is darn good price. Be happy with a fix or refurb replacement because it could have cost a whole lot more !
[Focus General] Deadem:
UPS will take 3 days tops. So once the phone is ship it will be just a small wait.
[Focus General] karelj:
wow.. My previous phone was a Motorola Q9h and the three times I sent it in via warranty I paid nothing. I guess user inflicted damage incurs a fee.
[Focus General] vermelo:
Oh man I dropped my phone inside a beer cup on Saturday. Took it out quickly and dried it but then the flash starting going crazy on and off and the phone was acting like it was connected to a charger.

Thankfuly the next day it was fine after it dried BUT the volume rocker is not working to go down in volume only up.

I wonder if Samsung can fix this for me??
[Focus General] Michael-Dallas:
Yep, same here, I dropped mine on gravel last month. But I was charged the full $156 ($70 std repair fee + $80 lcd repair fee + taxes). Then again, I did everything online from Samsung's website and not over the phone.

From the time I shipped my phone to the time I got it back was about 10 days (including weekend). And I live about 15 miles away from the Plano repair facility... my work is even closer! But they wouldn't let me drop it off or pick it up...

Michael.
[Focus General] Michael-Dallas:
The best thing you can do if you drop your phone in a liquid is remove the battery and bury the phone in a bag of rice for a week. The rice will absorb all the moisture out. But if you try to power on your phone before everything is fully dry, then the damage may already be done. I was told this tip by a friend of mine that works for Nokia.

Michael.
[Focus General] PaullikesWINMO:
Yes the rice trick is well known. Pass it around so more will know about it.
[Focus General] AllTheWay:
Rice is OK but Damprid is better

I have another alternative to the rice method. Instead of using that use a product called Damprid. Works way better than rice. Don't submerge your phone in rice but place your phone on top of it and then seal it up in a Tupperware container. Within 24 hours every drop of moisture will be out of the phone. Plus it's on $10 for a huge container of the stuff. It's worked on many phones.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savage0:
firstly... I am a noob....:)

I used the Vegan5.1.1 before(which the internal SD display "SDcard", and the external SD display "SDcard2").

1 And then I install the CM7 today,I also install the vold.fstab.zip when installed the CM7 in the recovery mod, so the internal SD display "SDcard" now, but the external SD display "emmc".

so how to trun my external SD from "emmc' to "SDcard2", just as the which the Vegan did before...

Thanks!

2 another question: in CM7, which the software is will install in (in auto mode)? is the internal SD or external SD?

I want to install the soft in the internal SD, and just use the external SD to store some video files...

so is that right to make internal SD display "SDcard", and the external SD display "SDcard2"?

thanks again!

3. I have another question!...I saw some thread said that if install the software in the external sdcard... the next time you change the rom, all the software will be keep in directly?

if it is true...maybe install the software in the external sdcard is better?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaidineshable:
Hi guys I bought a screen protector for my DHD but i severly messed up the installation and i now have quite a lot of small dust in between the protector and the phone screen.

i plan on just leaving the protector on this way as I seriously cannot be bothered to go out and buy another one and get a professional to do it for me. I may end up changing it after a few monthes time

however could the pieces of dirt/dust between the protector end up scratching the screen? I think im being a bit paranoid. Many thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aust S5:
Theoretically possible but unlikely as the way scratches happen is caused by the movement of these particles along the surface of the screen. If the screen protector doesn't move around the phone, and it really shouldn't even with not being completely clean to start with, then pressing normally on a screen to type etc should have no effect.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivierlee:
Unless you've got the dust particles trapped in an air pocket. Then movement / scratching is a possibility.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpinky:
