Holy **** I finally got it.

I had to enter the filepath and file. Derp.

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.img

^^^^^ Did Not Work ^^^^^

fastboot flash recovery c:\android\tools\recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.4-crespo.img

^^^^^ Did Work ^^^^^

Whew, I was scared there for a bit! :D

THANKS for your help dude!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
... WOW! i thought you knew that.

if you want the first command to work you have to do:

but congrats :) it was all you!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt2053:
Yeah I must have had a brain fart. I obviously did it correctly earlier in the day when I flashed Clockwork originally. I was thinking the environment variable editing I did handled the need for the directory but I guess that's only for the command not the file.

Well, all is good now anyway!

Customer retention did me right on today. To make a long story short I have had problems with my Vibrant since day one back in July. From the GPS to the freezing and reboots. T-Mobile has sent me 5 Vibrants since August and when I called on today I asked to speak with a manager. I told them I would like to cancel my account because I spent $500 on a phone and they have done nothing to fix it for me. I told them I tried every GPS fix known to man but none of them worked to my standards. I play golf and use Skydroid so I need the GPS to be pretty damn accurate. It worked fine on my MyTouch 3g. She then said "I can give you a $200 credit if you upgrade your device." I told her if she looked at my account I haven't been under contract with them for 3 years and have purchased my last 4 devices off contract so what makes you think I want to sign a 2 year contract now with this AT&T merger looming around. She asked me how they could keep me as a customer and I asked her what the value of my used Vibrant was. She told me $354. I then said, "the only way I will remain a T-Mobile customer is if they buy my Vibrant back for $354 and I purchase a G2x off contact for the difference". She put me on hold for 5 minutes and came back and said they would be willing to do that and would ship my G2x tomorrow and after I receive it I have 7 days to return my Vibrant. She even asked me if I would like to pay for the G2x right now or just add the cost to my bill. I chose to pay it now and should have a G2x in my hand by Friday for less than what people are paying to upgrade. Big deal, my Vibrant is gone but I got two cores of goodness for a little over $150 off contract.

you lucky man!

i may do the same with my Vibrant, starting to piss me off.

thanks for the tip!

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] joshtb86:
anyone have any suggestions for the best video viewing app for the gtab?

thanks!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Gelroos:
Rockplayer.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Reinclaw:
Video Player

I'd have to go with MoboPlayer. Much better UI than Rockplayer, and doesn't seem near as choppy. Plus you can have a library type setup too. Check it out, it's free on the market. Also, when I downloaded the one from the market, it had me download an older version when I loaded it up for the first time. The older version actually worked better for me.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Marbieskarb:
I like mVideo player. It runs very smooth on the G tab and it does have a library system with the ability for you to download cover art.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] boltgd:
vital

my preference goes to vital player..:)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] imdaman99:
I like this player too but for some reason my avi files and mkvs sound seems a little low. I've raised the volume to Max and its still a little faint. Mp3s sound fine and plenty loud, I've got the volume app and tried raising the sound there but little difference...any suggestions?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ix3u:
Mobo player for sure. It is absolutely amazing.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] kidujp:
Is there anything out there that plays 720p or 1080p videos? I have tried rockplayer universal, moboplayer, mvideo and all of them were choppy.

BTW, I'm running VEGAn-tab ginger rc1
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] 18jmagic:
Its because your running a gingerbread rom it doesnt have hardware acceleration !
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] TarheelGrad1998:
I run Vegan 1.5.1 and 720 p is choppy in every player (and audio is hit or miss).

Is there some way to run those well in pre-gingerbread?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] SiliconWarrior:
It depends on the file and how it's encoded. I've got a bunch of recorded TV that I've compressed to 720P mp4 files for my HTPC. They run about 1 Gig/hour. The only combination I've found that plays them on the GTab is the Calkulin+Clemsyn combo with Mobo Player. Even then I sometimes have audio sync issues. I'm sure I could transcode them on a different setting and get better playback, but that's where I am right now.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] trehouse:
as an fyi QQPlayer will play .avi's without any conversion
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] MechAniX.one:
Moboplayer and Realplayer.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] kidujp:
So is there a ROM that runs 720 and 1080 videos with hw acceleration ?
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] rcjpth:
Guys, use the hardware encoder and make sure your video file is MP4 H.264 - I said this because I spent 1 weeks just for trying to get better player and turns out ---> It's all about hardware encoding/acceleration.

I'm currently using QQPlayer & VitalPlayer (both free version) and all my videos are 720x480 MP4 H.264 (this give me a good size of file 1.2GB each movie)..AND MAKE SURE YOUR PLAYER USING HARDWARE ENCODING rather using software encoding!

Video converter software that I've been using (IMO) - very low CPU usage, 12hr for 10 DVD movie conversion in MP4 H.264 720x480 with subtitles is WonderShare Video Converter Ultimate - pretty good converter and average CPU usage (all 4 core 3.3ghz) is 15% - repeat 15% all cores' CPU usage....

Tried another such Cyberlink Media Espresso, Movavi converter - LOL they are all running 100% CPU utilization

Good luck guys!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] roguey:
ughhh dude....You WANT IT TO BE 100% CPU utilization................

Unless its using Cuda or Open CL...

lol....
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] JoTeC:
I found a new player I am trying out. arcMediaPro can be found on the Market. It has some great configurations but it too struggles with some HD movies. I use my GTab as a video player to hand my drivers to review their practice session as they get out of the race car. Just grab the microSD from the camera and put it in the GTab and launch the video and hand them the GTab. I do notice the audio has some syncing issues on some recordings but I am still going through the settings which are more complex than any of the other video players I have found. Here are a couple of links to these in-car videos..

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] JoTeC:
I downloaded MoboPlayer and it is working good. I do have the volume softness issue though. Any fix for this?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techboydino:
Just wondering if anyone else has been experiencing horrible WiFi speeds under CM7? I all but booted the device once with the stock Rom so I'm not sure how well it worked with that. The market especially is slow and web pages are horribly slow to load. Any thoughts? Thanks. :confused:

Tried other places with the same results, so it's not just my router or internet.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebadfrog:
Try a different rom. If the speeds are very slow in several roms then its hardware
[HTC Inspire 4G] Labrat0116:
I'm getting ready to upgrade real soon and during my research I've read that some Inspires have had issues with screen orientation. (ie getting stuck in Landscape mode).

Has this issue been resolved ?

Any other issues I need to be aware of ?

TIA.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Scott_S:
I don't think its an issue that's prevalent enough to be a deterrent to getting this phone.

It not like it's a constant complaint, at least here, in my experience. In fact, in my daily visits here since the phone came out, I can't really recall an instance of someone concerned enough about it being a potential issue to even post about it, in and of itself.

That's not to minimize you for doing so, just trying to say that this is an awesome phone, and the odds are in your favor for getting one problem-free out-of-the-box.

Keep in mind, every rose has its thorns, and phones are no different. You get bad ones no matter what phone/mfgr it is.

If you do happen to get one with issues, you'll know about it in plenty time to get it swapped out, assuming you buy it new, of course.

If you want a phone you REALLY SHOULD BE wary of before buying, that would be the Captivate... ;)

[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
now i seriously feel like a newb.wheres the bootloaders and what is jvb? should i just wait until its not as complicated?
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
O Yeah unless you have a jig ready and know all the steps needed. Which are alot!!
[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
i have a a jig,and i 100% i could follow the directions.is jvb the i900 gingerbread rom?

EDIT:reread the OP,i see what jvb is. now,would someone just point me to the bootloaders? ill be on my own from there,i swear. lol
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
I have already flashed a JVB rom myslef with the stock kernel (voodoo injected in)

via CWM , download mode method stayed the same except no 3 buttons fix ..

Just a heads up :

I dont see a need for flashing the booloader here ...

Xcal your the man but damn we at least need a workin recovery you know :eek:

im on irc if you need testers just yell at me :cool:

[Captivate Android Development] brd912:
When I go to flash the jvb rom do I follow the installation instructions on that thread or just straight flash the zip
[Captivate Android Development] Dlev7:
Alright so I have a Jig and im ready to go.

Do we flash back to stock first?

Then the JVB **WITH BOOTLOADERS???***

Let it boot up.

Then Flash this kernel?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: One more thing I have been looking for a while what is the dangers really with flashing the Gingerbread Bootloaders? Is it something that cannot be fixed even with a Jig? Or if something wrong were to happen a Jig would work? Thanks and sorry for the noobness

EDIT 2: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011901 Which one should we flash XWJVB NEE? Or XWJVB XEE? Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I'm a little confused. Do I have to check bootloader update, our the bootloader box above pda?
[Captivate Android Development] neptronix:
I was confused about the bootloader update check box, but I did not ...and all is well Very smooth, no fear. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
This page exactly shows to how to do it, even has screenshots of odin.

No you don't have to check bootloaders, bootloaders are part of pda file are flashed anyways.
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
I used 1.3 worked fine.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
ok. Thanks. Thats exactly how i have odin set up. As soon as b ackups are finished, Its flashing time.
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
Since we flashed a new bootloader, the AT&T image has gone, does somebody know if using one-click will restore it (just in case you have to send it in for warranty) ?
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
Good luck

You should be fine unless your usb comes out or computer crashes during sbl.bin flash ;) sbl.bin flashes after a couple of other files, I took a big sigh of relief as soon as it was complete.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
In DL mode, usb debugging is irrelevant, right?

Odin keeps hanging at checking md5, right after i hit start. Ive restarted my computer, and just for good measure, im dsiabling lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
USB debugging mode means nothing in recovery or download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] Chargerdude70:
Sorry for the noobish question. I been flashing a while now but really only with .zip files. So my odin skills are lacking(other than FTS). Since the three ROM files are labled PDA, PHONE, CSC, I know where they go. But when it comes to flashing xcal's kernel, what slot do I put it in. I read on another website, it mentioned in the PDA slot. Would rather hear it from the trusted on here.
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
You first flash the 3 files, PDA, PHONE and CSC. Let the phone boot up. Go to Download mode second time and flash XCal's kernel (Goes in PDA, with all other options blank).
[Captivate Android Development] Chargerdude70:
Thanks a bounch
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
To continue... when using odin, if you want to flash a modem, extract the zip and place modem.bin in PHONE.
[Captivate Android Development] LinuxNewb:
Looks like the MIUI project is making some milestones and now with this kernel in development I'm VERY excited. Will BLN be incorporated to this too? Have a few 2.3 kernels with it implemented.
[Captivate Android Development] maerlim:
Odin is particularly touchy in regards to what physical usb port you use. I have found that it doesn't like USB "hubs", and have always had best luck plugging it in to a USB port directly connected to my motherboard.

Edit: Also sometimes it helps to reboot your PC, and reboot your phone back into download mode while it's plugged into the usb cable. YMMV. Using Odin is sometimes more of an art form than a science. :)
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
now, odin keeps hanging up. goes unresponsive almost as soon as i hit start. Ive restarted computer, reinstalled drivers, reinstalled Odin (v1.52 and 1.81),changed cables, and i have no idea what to do next. Any suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
are you plugged directly into the USB or going through a HUB? Make sure its a usb port. See if you can get odin 1.7, I had no issues using that version on Win 7 x64.

I attached mine in case you cant find it.

Edit: It has the pit files but you should not have to worry about using them.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Thanks, but im on laptop(no worry of power failure). Im going to try with 1.7, and if doesnt work, i am going to try it on my pc.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
Also check drivers installed. AIO Captivate has drivers you can install if thats the issue.
[Captivate Android Development] Chargerdude70:
What is the reasoning for flashing the whole ROM first and then flashing xcal's kernel next? Why not just select his kernel as the PDA file and save one step?
[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
Go ahead and flog me for not using search...anyone who has flashed stock gb...is anyone having probs connecting to 3g? I have been unable to get anyform of data. I flashed the jk4 modem...but nothing. Wifi works great...just no data.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Has anyone tried a different i9000 rom? i wanted to try Darkys but with all the steps didnt want to "f" up my phone.

Captivate on 2 slices of Gingerbread......to go!
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Because xcal said to do it that way, and he is da man.
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
Because PDA has other things like your UI etc in it, the kernel is just the kernel. Just look at the size of PDA it is some 200 MB, while kernel is just 7MB ;)
[Captivate Android Development] MarlowXim:
I would check if you have the correct apn settings for your current carrier. Since you are flashing a eur rom. I'm sure you can find those settings on your own.
[Captivate Android Development] loraque:
When you are flashing the JVB base ROM, 4/5 of the ODIN lines are used... there is already something in the PDA line.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I think i found my problem. All if the files i unzipped with peazip were empty! My laptop didn't show file size, but my pc does. I downloading from a different place, one that doesn't require anything more than a double click to unzip.
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
I have tried Juwe's Smart edition, goatrip, and one I made from the kitchen using beta JVB, all three worked fine, but all three are JVB based, don't know about JVK based

I tried Insanity, but could not get that to work it just kept force closing on me while setting up the phone initially, somebody in the previous post said that he got it to work too.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Flashed the Homebutton fix on the first page still not working, anyone else having trouble? should i try through terminal?

worked for me. You can unzip the file and replace the melfas_touchkey.kl file in \system\usr\keylayout\ folder using root explorer and then reboot your phone. That should work too.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
you can try to do it manually, I used root explorer

I have not had any problems with JK4 using stock JVB, using it in NorCal.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
This is not a question or asking for help so no need to respond. Just was sharing my haphazard and fix for it so others do NOT have the same problem and can figure out how to fix it.

I used odin 1.7 and flaahed the first step. I watched everything :pit, pda, phone, and csc flash on the odin screen but then odin said it failed. Phone never showed downloading bar on screen so i stayed in dl mode. Odin can be tricky at times i know. Phone was still in download mode so i tried to flash again but it wouldnt go past start. I powered it off and tried to get back into download mode but i got phone-computer screen. Powered off again and used jig and was back in download mode. Did NOT reset odin and just hit start again. This time everything worked and the phone showed the download bar this time. Now gingerbread with juwe's smart edition with Excal's kernel it is working good so far. It is very nice and smooth so far. This is my second phone so i havent swapped a sim card in to test 3g/h yet but i will. Again i dont need help here just stating my issue and how i fixed it in case others have the dame general problem.
[Captivate Android Development] streetsmart999:
I flashed the kernel with Re-Partition on... Now what? Can i go something about it.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
I have data working ok so far. Only thing is odd is that if you select just MMS from the ATT apn settings instead of internet and apn (helps when on prepaid lol) MMS will not send but will the min i change it back
[Captivate Android Development] streetsmart999:
Guys I think I bricked my Phone... Any help would be appriciated. I did the kernal With Re-Partition. Then I got Hang up at I9000 Screen. Then I wanted to go back to Stock (2.1) so that I can do all this Process again. Now I have Black Screen No Power, Gig Is not working either... Any Help? Or Do i have to visit At&T?
[Captivate Android Development] modest_mandroid:
I assume you've already tried pulling the battery? Try unplugging it, then hold menu, vol down and power. If it doesn't send you into download mode and a jig is not working either, you have hard bricked your phone. You'll either have to take it to ATT or mail it to Samsung.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
I could be wrong but I think the repartition is for the internal card and you can get it fixed with the PIT files because they format the internal memory for the size. Default I think is the 512 version.

From my understanding on how to install this.

1. Flash to stock and master clear(cause its always safer xD)

2. flash this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011901

3. go into cwm and Flash xcals kernal?

4. play?

can anyone please tell me if im correct here? i looked at some of the custom roms and i didn't like the theming of them at all so i just want to stick with a stock rom from now. Also how does the battery seem to be holding up?

thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
If he flashed the new bootloader. Then its the Vol. down + Menu and Power Button
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Flash to stock an master clear not needed. However, you do need to clear cache and do a factory reset.

Also, you cant flash Xcal's kernel with cwm. You have to flash it with odin.

Now, you should be good to go.
