[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
Heh, sorry I'm in Comp Eng...the first thing I think is to break out the resistors and solder :p.

The Source should have you covered for resistors...if you can't find 300K or 301K (unlikely) pick up 3x100K and 1x1K , connect in series, same thing.

Hold on a second, i don't have the I897 i have the I9000M (Vibrant)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] advanttage:
can someone post a photo of a jig? from maybe both sides? a closeup of the connections would be nice. just to have a visual reference
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kops:
I've seen a few pictures out there, but unfortunately I can't dig up those threads. Basically your going to take a Micro-B USB cable and chop it. Between pins 4 and 5, connect the 301Kohm resistance, then connect it to your phone while it is shut off. This should force download mode. To my understanding, different resistance combinations can be used to force different modes.

[edit]

A few pictures found in the thread I linked earlier....

Showing 3x100K and 1x100K

Just want to say thanks to everyone in these forums for the advice and help. Jig is on the way courtesy of ebay, €3.85, bank breaker!

If the jig works I'm going straight back to stock and will just wait for the official Samsung 2.3 update.

Thanks again :D

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikuba:
Have you tried pulling the battery and holding the power button until all the residual energy is drained and then booting into download mode? That did the trick for me when I bricked my phone, also make sure you've actually got the gt-i9000M because when mine boots it doesn't have an AT&T logo, in fact it doesn't have any cell provider logo whatsoever, you might have the USA vibrant samsung galaxy.

And the power of the Internets saves another phone!

Good job sticking with it and not throwing it through a wall. I had a bunch of really odd problems with my phone that were resolved with the help of the community too.

For future reference, stay in the i9000 section, please! Captivate/Fascinate/Epic stuff wont work with our phones, as you discovered hahaha

Yeah you are right. I was ignorant of the ins and outs of messing with android.with other phones and computers I typically have a "well if I mess it up il just have to fix it."mentality. Although I'm sure mri internal sd card is faulty.I'm sending the phone to samsung to replace (hopefully).I know the phone is ask under warranty
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vongikking:
Hey guys, I'm with a similar problem, and I was really glad to see how nice people were with each other and patient. So I hope you all will be patient with me too.

I'm a total newbie and ****ed up my phone in many ways. Exactly as said above, I started trying to install something it wasnt suposed to work on my phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000b (sold to latin américa).

I'm now stuck with the black screen of death, no matter what I do I get this screen. It hapened after I tryied to install unsucessfully the original rom of the phone and odin presented me with an error.

Before I try any further I'd like your advices as how to procede regarding my 9000b. Pulling the battery out, putting it in again and holding either vol down or both volumes and either pluging the phone on usb or pressing power allways gives me the same result, the screen with phone exclamation triangle and pc.

So, before I buy a jig cable on ebay that will probably take 3 weeks to get here (Brasil) is there anything else I can try?

Thanks alot and sorry for the bad english.

I have created a widget for Google Merchant Accounts, I suspect it may only work for android developers, not to worry..

First release on Market (I cant post link yet so here is the ID) nz.org.winters.android.merchantwidget

I am looking for feedback, e.t.c, this is still work in progress but 98% of the code is inherited from my other widgets..

Btw, this parses the html from the merchant pages, so it will work for developers who do not have the access to the merchant API, so for me in New Zealand, it works!!

The info from the market page..

And yes - more features are available by purchasing the cheap unlocker.

Very sure I am rooted ( Ti Backup works just fine and I can use su in terminal). I have even uninstalled adfree and reinstalled with no luck. Hell, I even tried replacing the hosts file manually with a list that's kicking around on the forums. Still nothing. Just for ****s and giggles, I am re-downloading it right now. Its been a few weeks, maybe it'll work:rolleyes:
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] mobileweasel:
No dice. Symlink is unchecked. Cleaning the cache now and will try again.

edit: still no luck. To be honest, its only my weathereye app that I'd really like to see the ads disappear from. I'd like to tear apart the apk and find the source of the problem, but I have never attempted something like that !
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ccrows:
Guys I badly need help with this!

For those that got this to work what did you use? (Which Root method, and anything special done inside the app? I do have Symlink unchecked)

Specifically any Bell Users, how did you guys get this working? HELP!... :confused:
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] ccrows:
I'm completely rooted, and have done this exactly like I have on my Milestone and SGS.

Is there a way to get this going manually, since this app doesn't appear to work on the (Bell) Atrix?... Thanks!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] mobileweasel:
Didn't you already post this in another thread ??
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] thebeardedchild:
It's weird, when I installed GreyBlur when I first got my phone, the adblocking built in to it worked and I never saw any ads anywhere (It does the same thing as adFree I believe, so it's comparable...) but then a little later I reverted to a backup for some reason, so no adblocking naturally. And when I installed GB3.5 (now I'm on 4.5) I haven't been able to block ads at all since, either with just GB or with AdFree.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] flaviocc:
Until yesterday ADFREE was blocking all ads. After the upgrade stopped. The ads are appearing as if nothing block then.

This occurs in both wifi and 3G (Tim - Brazil)

Any solution ?

Tks !!

Edit:

I managed to make it work:

- Uninstall, reboot and install again

- Clear data from applications that have ads

- Restart if necessary

work that way here.

BTW . guess from where i took the picture for Desktop visualizer :) :P
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
I'm glad you understand.

I think you should change the title to LCD Density - More Widgets on homescreen (or something like that) considering you get more wudgets by having mire columns and rows with LauncherPro or ADW.

And is that my layout? :p
[Galaxy Tab General] k0sh:
owh how smart u r :))

yes it is your layout ... i like it .. so hope u don't mind :)

btw how is my screen its look pretty good but another side is ****in bad :D

review your attitude, till i saw this post i had not seen bashing or flaming in XDA (almost 4 years).

thanks to OP for this, I have been mucking around with android for about 6 months and had no idea about this handy concept.
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
What was wrong with my attitude in that thread?

I apologized if I sounded rude to the open and all I said is that a lot of people are aware of changing density and that he should change the title. Read my later posts, the op took no offence to what I said. I don't think its my attitude that needs reviewing.

And where on xda have you been? Clearly not in the Tab forums.

As a person who is new to Droid, I have lurked here for a while. I have found this forum extremely helpful for tweaking my EVO and Galaxy Tab. Most senior members are very helpful. Thank you very much.

A point of minor annoyance I have noted is GANJDROIDs aggression towards new members, or replying to something that might be obvious to him but not the original poster. I don't understand this lack of patience, social skills, or finger pointing from a senior member, or from someone who has offered the forum so much.

That is my 0.00001c, and here is a bit more: GANJDROID that was douchy.
[Galaxy Tab General] GANJDROID:
You clearly haven't seen theATHIEST do his work then..

I've stated that I didn't mean to cause offence, and I don't jump into threads to troll and bully people. Ill tell the op if its in the wrong forum and offer help to their problem of find a way to make it more useful like I have in this thread.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DDRFAN:
The Desire Z was my first ever android phone after coming from iPhones (2G>3G>3GS>DZ) and it's definitely won me over iOS (aside from the appstore, but the android market is exploding). After switching around phones, I want to find one that will satisfy me for a long period of time, and right now it's between the Desire Z or Desire HD.

To the people who have both a Desire Z and a Desire HD/Inspire, which do you prefer/which do you think is the better phone in general? Disregard anything stock, and assume the most you could do with both of them rooted. (Define them on terms of everything: Dev support, development, screen size, screen display, battery, performance, general feel/use, etc).

Off-topic question, but if anyone knows, is it possible to use THD apps on the Desire Z? (ie. Fruit Ninja THD)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptesmoke:
If it ain't got a kb it ain't better than the dz! Ill never own another "bar" style device, depends on personal preference but I looooove having a full kb. (Fat fingers)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athrun88:
I have the DZ, brother has the DHD.

Personally, they're both the same phone. Only differences:

DHD: 4.3" screen, last-gen 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, Al unibody chassis, dual LED flash, 8MP camera

DZ: 3.7" screen, current-gen 800MHz Snapdragon CPU, physical keyboard, single LED flash, 5MP camera, dedicated camera button

Of the two, I would get the DZ. The CPU is more efficient, the 3.7" screen isn't too big but isn't too small. Physical keyboard ensures that you have 100% screenspace for whatever you are looking at rather than having the Onscreen keyboard take up 50%+ screen space when typing. Despite having a single LED flash and a 5MP camera, it easily compares with the DHD's dual flash and 8MP stills.

If you have the older firmware, both are very easy to root. Once you have root and custom rom's on them, they're essentially the same phone save for the physical keyboard. That would be the deciding factor in choosing IMO.

Have fun!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DDRFAN:
Oh the DHD uses last gen snapdragon? Was under the impression that they were both 2nd gen. That pretty much decides it then LOL, thanks. Hows the dev on the DHD compared to DZ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Athrun88:
yep, the DHD uses the last-gen Snapdragon CPU. That's why it's stock clocked at 1GHz while the DZ is clocked at 800MHz and it still keeps up while being power efficient.

I don't hang around the DHD section too much, but my brother seems to be happy with them. But then again, what kind of Dev is not helpful or nice on XDA? haha
