I am aware I am not saving money but I get a new device, that while it may not be "better" it is newer. I know newer isn't better. And as far as committing to att for two more years they are the only carrier that I get service in my area. And my wife really doesn't care about the upgrade shes still happy with her razr and doesn't want to get anything new.

One question is it possible to take a titanium backup file and put it on another phone (inspire) to get all my apps back?
[Captivate General] rsx19:
only 70 dollars

[Captivate General] JamesR913:
It could be $1.00 or $1000. It doesn't matter cause its out of stock.
[Captivate General] Jasephrock:
cracked mine a few months back and got a screen from ebay and replaced it myself. its was about $60 and it even came with a kit for opening the phone. there's a thread somewhere on xda for disassembling the phone with pictures and stuff. pm me if you want more help.

I'm in the same boat as him and the need to change the glass. All the dissasemblies doesnt actually show how to separate the glass from the lcd.

found you a replacement screen really cheap

from the above link.....

I DID NOT MESS WITH THIS SNIP....

OH! it comes with a kilo of cocaine!

but seriously search Ebay " Captivate Screen " price over $25...
[Captivate General] newter55:
@trusselo,

That is actually a normal practice on eBay, they raise the price when out of stock to avoid relisting and associated fees.
[Captivate General] JamesR913:
Yeah I saw that too. Thought it had to be a typo
[Captivate General] TRusselo:
either way i saw a bunch on ebay for a regular price of 125$ or so...
[Captivate General] studacris:
Hmmm the exact amount att charges to replace the phone through insurance...
[Captivate General] Jasephrock:
Not sure if you can separate the glass from the lcd. All the replacements I saw available come with screen+digitizer as an assembled unit already. Pretty sure you have to replace the whole thing not just glass only.

Prices really raised huh.... got mine for $60 a few months ago. Maybe supplies is getting short.
[Captivate General] fallguy7822:
I bought just the glass itself and yes you can buy it by itself either with the at&t or without it. Now i just to need to see how to separate i was told the two are held together by adhesive
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Hey guys,

I've been lurking around for days trying to figure this issue out.

My first install of FRX06 went perfectly fine. Everything worked great.

After a while, my battery fell out of my phone. "No biggie" I said to myself. I'll just boot into WinMO and run Haret again. Once I booted into XDAndroid again I was greeted with absurd silence. I tried deleted the files and reinstalling FRX06. No luck.

recently found the HP Tool to reformat the sd card. No luck. Tried installing the Gingerbread alpha, which people have had no problems with (at least, nothing out of the oridinary.) no luck with that either.

I will admit I'm formatting the card using HP Tool while the phone is plugged into a computer in WinMobile mode. I don't know if that makes a difference or not..

I'm kinda sad, everything was working fine until the this weird issue popped up on me. I've been unable to fix it at all. if anyone has some suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
I'm assuming sound works in WinMo?

You're using the SD card thru Mass Storage Mode right, so the card just shows up as a disk on your computer?

You're also doing a full format, FAT32 right?

I'd say do that, full format, start fresh with the new bundle - delete anything old you have. Don't change anything with the bundle other than adding the startup and the ts-calib. See how it goes..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Thanks for the timely response!

Yes I'm using a 2GB SD Card through Mass Storage Mode. The Card shows up as a removable disk on my machine.

If by full format you mean that "quick format" is not checked, then yes. Fat32 is also selected as my option.

I will try with a fresh download of the bundle and get back to you. :) Thanks again!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
np, let us know how it goes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Formated and downloaded a fresh copy of Gingerbread Alpha. Still no sound. :(

Maybe I'm doing something wrong..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Try Froyo? Sound works in GB tho.

Sound is turned up too yes? I'm making an assumption that you're checking all these settings... What have you tried for sound to work!?!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
I will not be able to try Froyo until much later today. I will keep that in mind though.

Sound is turned up. Sound also works in WinMo too. :( I've tried selecting a ringtone in GB to see if it'll play anything, nothing happens. If I make a call I cannot hear the other party, nor can I confirm if they can hear me lol.

The only symptom I can think of before my battery fell out was the first call I made in XDAndroid the call came in very clear, then the volume dropped into nothingness. I rebooted and it was fine again. Only weird thing i've experienced before my phone gave me the silent treatment.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
No clue, other than I know it works for many.

I assume you're on the stock kernel that's included in the gb bundle? Have you tried any other kernels?

On the phone call, did you try the speakerphone on/off fix? You're not on vibrate only?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Speakerphone on/off did not work. Tried calling a coworker and he couldn't hear me through the phone. :(

I haven't tried any other kernel, only the stock kernel that came with the bundle. I'm assuming I should check F22's topic for the latest one?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Autobuild for the latest kernel, all the info is in the first post of my FRX06 thread.

The kernel included with the bundle works great for 99.999999%, so I'm not sure what your issue is TBH, just grabbing at straws at this point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Back off work! Ready to give it another round.

I think my lack of admin rights (or at least the fact I was using a work computer with all kinds of access and rights restrictions) may have made my format go quirky somewhere. Format is taking a much longer time on my much faster home machine (lol). Trying out a kernel from your original post on the FRX06 thread Arrrghhh. I have a feeling this one is going to give me peace. :D

I will update this post with results soonish.

Again, thanks for all your help!

UPDATE

Another format. Older ROM. Particularly version htc-msm-linux @ 20110415_205352 from

http://glemsom.users.anapnea.net/android2/htc-msm-linux/

I think my options now are to just go down the list. :( But I'm deathly afraid nothing will end up working..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Tried everything. New SD Card. Fresh Format. New install of XDAndroid.

No sound. :( When I play a ringtone in settings the program crashes and throws me back to general settings..

I'm honestly all out of ideas. Never has a issue been so persistent out of nowhere for no reason.

If anyone has any more ideas, including Mr. Arrrghhh who has been ever so helpful (:D) I will blindly follow them! Otherwise it looks like I'll be having fun with WinMo until I get my Atrix..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] nickleby:
Something similar happened to me several months ago...The sound was not working on Android, it worked on Windows Mobile only the headphones did not work, were not detected. I had to send my phone to the warranty for that reason.

Do not want to discourage you, but I think your device was damaged permanently. If you have warranty, take advantage.

Do not want to speculate, but there is something in the compilations or the kernels that make that happen...But remember that all these procedures are under our responsibility!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Well if there is an issue related to the headphone jack, that might explain it.

Is anything broken like that in WinMo? I'm really not sure at this point, no body has had serious issues with sound in months. The occasional report of having to flip speakerphone on/off to get audio working correcting in a phone call, but that's it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] Novancaiel:
Everything in WinMo works perfectly. Only when I boot into Android do I have no sound. :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
Hrm. I'm not sure, short of trying older kernels.

Well, now that I think about it - what are you settings in WinMo? Anything muted or set to vibe only?

Very few things from WinMo 'bleed' over into Android, but this may be one of them. Might also try to flash a different ROM, which one are you on?

Really grabbing at straws now, but we've gone thru all the 'normal' stuff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] ryannathans:
If everything works in winmo there is no hardware problem and no reason for a warrenty job.

Do what arrrghhh said, start

everything

from fresh with the latest versions of everything ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] mburman:
Same problem!!

I'm having almost the exact same problem and it started on very nearly the same date (give or take a few days). The only time I have any sound is if I make a call and switch on speaker phone. Then my speaker and mic are working. If I turn speaker phone off I have no ear piece sound and mic is off. I was playing with droid explorer logcat console the other night and I was seeing AudioHardwareMSM72XX( 1301): Routing audio to Wired Headset

AudioFlinger( 1301): write blocked for 180 msecs, 9 delayed writes, thread 0xbb38. Doesn't matter what android build/kernel/ril/rootfs/etc... I try I can't get anything to fix it... but WinMo sound is totally fine. I have been trying to get HYC's new ril working for me. That's when I lost sound and nothing gets it back. I've done full sd card format, re-downloaded "fresh" packages, removed media folder and put it back... I'm still fumbling my way around as far as learning to troubleshoot android but I'm learning... I'm not sure how to save logs but if any might help... a few instructions and I'll post all I can!

I was able to copy this from logcat console. I dialed *228 and switched speaker phone on and then off. Not sure how much of that this covers... but maybe it will help...

Couple of footnotes... I'm using Rhod500 Verizon this is an older install that I'd hoped would restore sound running off a kernel dated 2/28/11.

Appreciate any thoughts!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] arrrghhh:
I'd say that's the culprit. I assume you don't have one plugged in? Have you tried blowing gently into the USB port? No joke, there might be something stuck in there.

Other than that, I'm not sure why the system would falsely think you're plugging in a wired headset....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android General] mburman:
Not to discount your idea...(I just blew into it and I'm rebooting into andriod now) but wouldn't that cause WinMo to think I had onen plugged in too? Is there something I can add to startup or ?.conf.? to force it to work correctly?

Well... no sound. I started logcat console as soon as I could and I think there may be some interresting stuff toward the top where it initializes the hardware. I saw something about sharing a memory allocation I think... it's just below " >>>>>>>>>>>>>> AndroidRuntime START <<<<<<<<<<<<<<"...

Thanks again for your help! This project has definately come a long way because of you!:)

I have been running the stock Verizon updated rom... I reflashed the same rom and sound in Android is back!!!

[Hero, G2 Touch General] thompson2009:
I am writing on this thread as i still cannot add to the development thread yet

I am using Elelinux-7.0.0-Hero-v2.0. Thanks Ele for a great rom.:)

So far the only problem i have had is once the unlock screen went invisible on me.

I had to use the patch which worked fine. no black screen. everything else works great so far.

Just trying to contribute to the developers what i can to help.

Any one else has any issue yet.

Elelinux-7.0.0-Hero-v2.0

RADIO VERSION:63.18.55.06SU_6.35.17.03

Kernel: Herokernel-12a
[Hero, G2 Touch General] maddog5k:
I've had the same issue with the lockscreen but like yourself it was a once off.

Generally the ROM is great (however, this is the first ROM that I've flashed to my hero)

The only other issue im getting is with linking facebook with my contacts; for some reason FB keeps crashing. But keep in mind that I'm a retard in comparison to what you lads know about custom roms etc..... but slowly learning!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] thompson2009:
same problems

I have had the same problems as you. lock screen went invisible a couple of times. and my facebook does not work quite right.

Apart from that has been very stable. no problems or reboots. works great.

Running gingerbread with honeycomb theme on my hero. running at 691mhz is well good.

I have got widgets running on every screen to.

Elelinux RC4 version 7.0 V2.0

kernel 12a

691mhz

clockworkmod.

Thanks Ele for a great rom
[Hero, G2 Touch General] wing_hk:
After installed 2.0 patch, I still get blank screen (wall paper ok, no any widgets).

The only way to solve is restart :confused:

Any thing wrong with my installation? (same spec as above post)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] thompson2009:
The Bug seems to affect some phones and not others. Might be due to different hardware but not sure.

I am a network engineer. Not a developer.

There is a patch that fixes the black screen bug which might help. You might have to delete dalvik cache first though. But as said not a developer.

I just wanted to try some different roms and loaded cronos rom yesterday and is very good. So running that at the moment.

It is really fast and stable. The fastest i have used so far. But i have not tested everything yet like GPS. But admit i am becoming a cronos fan.

Cheers.

P.s i always backup my phone first and do a complete wipe before trying a new rom. Otherwise could get problems.

I use clockwork mod.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JieeHD:
Unfortunately the bug your getting with black screens, invisible menus etc.. is an aosp bug that affects some devices which Google are unable to fix, if you had read through the thread you would have seen this. Ele is working hard on a fix for this but as CM no longer support the hero, its unlikely many cm7 roms will see many updates.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Papuass:
Everyone is hoping that Google will fix the memleak and invisible manus problem. To fix it, one needs to undersatand the big picture on how these things are managed. I think it can be done only by experienced coder.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] thompson2009:
It's a real shame. i love gingerbread and did not want to go back to 2.1 or 2.2.

But might have to if they do not fix it.

I know Ele is working hard on a fix. using his rom at the moment. Was using cronos. But suddenly started getting random reboots and battery started only lasting a few hours and could not find out why.

Thanks to all devs and help.

Elelinux 7.0 v2.1 GPS reboot issue

Hi all,

I found Elelinux 7.0 v2.1 to be almost perfect.

The only major issue so far for me is that when running applications such as sportstracker that use GPS and are running in the background, that as soon as the GPS connection is lost (for whatever reason) the phone always seems to crash.

I wonder whether anyone else has seen this issue and whether there's a way to investigate it.

E.g. is it possible ot redirect logcat to the sdcard and then analyze the log file?

Regards,

MJ
[Hero, G2 Touch General] beano_2008:
Her0 V2.1 - USB problem

This is a weird one...

I flashed to Elelinux 's fab 2.1 the usual way....

I booted into the ClockworkMod Recovery V2.5.0.7

-- wipe cache partition

-- Advanced - Wipe Dalvik Cache

-- reboot

Then again within Clockwork Recovery I choose 'Install zip from sdcard'

I select the Hero rom and it flashes perfectly...

Now the problem ----> I cant get the usb port working to enable transfer of files?:(

When the phone boots up it shows 'preparing sd card'

Then when i connect usb lead to pc it shows 'usb connected'

When i then pull the screen down, i see 'usb connected - select to copy files to/from your computer'

When i select that tab, it just crashes back to the home page?

I see the icon at the top of the screen but when i pull down the screen and select as above, it crashes back to home screen again?

In settings, i have both USB debugging and USB debugging notify - all enabled.

Can anyone provide a solution to this issue for me..

thank you
[Hero, G2 Touch General] JieeHD:
The only way around this problem i think is to mount usb storage from recovery.
[Omnia 7 General] ballajalla:
Touch buttons are the devils work imo. since 9 out of 10 times you hit them by accident. Does anyone know how to disable the touch buttons, or change the behavior to long press? (Hold for 0.5 sek.)

Since I'm holding the phone with my right hand, the bing search button it most annoying. I also kind of need the back button, so for now I am looking for a way to disable just the search button.
[Omnia 7 General] DAVIZINHO:
with the new firmware on focus, when you are into app, the touch buttons disables.

I don´t know if disable completly or only short press.

I think this will be implemented in future firmware on omnia 7

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1jz68u:
Hi guys,

yesterday my galaxy s running darky's rom 9.5 shut down for no reason and when I attempted to turn it back on I got the thinking icon then an empty battery graphic then black screen. So I plugged it in to the charger and after about 10 seconds I had the full battery graphic (my battery should have been full.) So I then take it off charge and turn it on, now it will boot and run for about 5 minutes then turn off again. Dead battery I hear you say? To test that theory I put my battery into my friends galaxy s, it works fine, fully charged with no issue. His battery works fine in my phone. Both work for about an hour. Then I swap back. Battery works in my phone this time for around 20 minutes, then same problem as before.

So after this massive story is my battery just stuffed and doesn't want to work with my phone anymore or do I have another issue??

P.s during this whole process I have reset battery stats and done a factory reset all with no result.

Thanks in advance

First check would be the rom /Flash base Froyo with pit 512 and repartition checked should wipe a bad rom .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1jz68u:
ok so just a bit of an update, tested some brand new batteries and none worked.

will try updating the .pit file.

also phone will not go into recovery mode when not plugged in but will go into download mode using 3 button method.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Its not an update of the pit file .Stock rom and wipe of battery stats and two weeks use will show batery bad or not .

The rom you have has multiple bad battery posts .

You could always ask Darky for a fix .

having same problem. running liquid smooth rom on tmobile. I was using gps and phone just shut off. Now when I try and turn it on, galaxy s4 comes up then shuts off. I plugged it in to turn it on and now were bootlooping..

Cant get into recovery either :crying:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realizerecognize:
OK, finally got into recovery mode. erased erased erased. restored, and everything seems to be running smooth so far. I just wonder what the issue was with my phone not coming on. I tried the card trick. Didn't help, so I am guessing the battery connections were fine. Hopefully isnt a motherboard issue..

I haven't had any issues with the rom either at all it works great with my phone and is super smooth, but I don't think the rom would have anything to do with getting into recovery when powered off.
