[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronoriot:
ive got a Droid Eris (rooted) currently using stock rom after having issues with connection on some other roms, with the other roms when i tethered i could use skype, ventrilo, ect on my pc without any issues, all of which were used while playing WoW. when i use them on the stock rom, i get disconnected frequently and dont know why??? is it the stock rom that cant handle them? or do i need to change something on my phone... i really dont want to go back to my other roms because my connection is so bad :( please help.
[Epic 4G General] vickpick:
I was following a guide to flash to boost.. but I wasn't flashing to boost but from sprint to sprint so as to avoid paying for a dataplan. Anyways.. when I copied my nv files from upstage to Epic 4G in CDMA workshop, my phone restarted and BAM! My phone gets no signal - stuck in airplane mode, Can open browsers, market.. some apps works but only a few. Unkown in baseband and firmware version under settings..

can this be solved or is my phone done for? Did I just trash my 400 bucks?

I've already tried resetting.. used odin to put in stock ROM/modem.. none of that worked. I did the 1, camera, power reset..

Thanks in advance for the help.

Move along, nothing to see here.
[Epic 4G General] vickpick:
so, that's it? It's bricked?
[Epic 4G General] hugo87:
I think what he means is the topic you are discussing is illegal. This thread will probably going o be closed by a mod and further discussion may get you banned. just saying.
[Epic 4G General] vickpick:
oh... dang.. I didn't know its illegal if I was doing exchange between both phones owned by me. oh well.. then.. the mod can close it if it's illegal.. sorry.
[Epic 4G General] cjobanion:
If your are able to put the phone in download mode (1 key + power ), then you shouldn't be bricked.

You will need a full .tar file. With being able to get into download mode and a full .tar file, everything should be re-wriiten as to get rid of what "failed" That should bring your Epic back to being an "Epic". From there, you can re-try the Boost thing - - - or not. ;)
[Epic 4G General] vickpick:
I used a tar.md5

should I use a tar file rather? the one I used was about 280 MB..

do you know if the NV items are a part of ROM or what? because that is what I've screwed up..

Oh and thanks for being helpful rather than just telling me its illegal.. as long as I get my phone back to the way it used to be.. I dont mind.. I'm not gonna try the flash again!
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
use odin and re-flash.. after that, do a ##RTN# that should restore it completely to as stock as you're gonna get.

as for 'boosting' it.. we can't help ya much here.
[Epic 4G General] vickpick:
after I enter the MSL and press okay, I get an error saying "Modem Error"

"Modem exception occurs"
[Epic 4G General] cjobanion:
No problem. I saw your post as a question about how to get your phone back to normal - - after a "questionable" procedure. Not one of how to actually do something questionable/illegal now. Once you get your phone back to normal, what you do after that is up to you! Now, with all that being said :D . . . . on to other things!

I think that if you find a

full STOCK .tar file

- not one that has been deodexed and pre-rooted - it will overlay all ROM files with Stock sprint files. I have one on my laptop at home and can post it for you when I get home from work if you haven't found one on your own by then.

Hope this helps!

Edit: You didn't, by chance, use the Epic-to-Boost switch that has been posted on this site for some time did you? If I'm not mistaken, it's still on here somewhere, so I think the "phone police" will probably leave you alone - - this time!!
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
odin wont touch the NV items.. thats wasted time. if you backed them up, then rewrite them.. if not.. that sucks. hopefully you can find someone who will back them up for you. sounds like you wrote an entire nv read from another phone to your epic, which is not a great idea, considering they are different phones, with different writable memory locations and whatnot. and you wrote something to the modem area which throws an exception in rtn reset... best bet is to take the file you wrote, and give those memory addresses to someone with an epic and ask them to read those addresses and see if writing their dump will help you..
[Epic 4G General] vickpick:
I have a friend with an EPIC.. but the problem is I can't CDMA workshop to connect to my phone now.. no com port shows up in my device manager.. ODIN detects the phone, but not CDMA workshop.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanming:
Hi fellow Atrix users! I just noticed this problem(?) recently. If i want to call someone, and i terminated the call early without someone picking up the phone (on the other side), then I will lose my signal temporary for like 20 seconds or so. My phone will show up no signal and no carrier name for 20 seconds. Then if the other side picks up the phone, then i will not have this issue. Is this common? Or something is wrong with my phone? :confused:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laylovj:
Isn't the bell version like the i9000m version or something? Not sure why you would flash a stock T959 rom...

Sent from my Bullet fast, Winning Vibrant
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oniyuri:
Your phone is a Vibrant but it's the i9000m version. T959 is for the US variant.

It looks like you're gonna have to find a way to ODIN back to your stock so I suggest you head on over to the i9000 forums since that model is closer to what you're sporting.

BTW: once you get your phone back on track, check out this thread to unlock it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=747235
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lkh5650:
yeah it is

i had no idea :( (i have no knowledge on this)

and someone did it (on post#7) so i tried doing the same thing..

ugh..

now my phone won't even connect to pc

(i tried running adb and it says no device is connected..

Can u still get download mode?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lkh5650:
no I can't get into download mode...

pressing volume button with the power button when not connected to pc just shows the logo of samsung and galaxy s and repeat these two logos..

and when connected to pc, it does dark screen/loading/empty battery with loading..

when connected to pc, i can try to run

adb reboot download

it says

error: device not found..
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laylovj:
Press just both the volume +/- and plug it in
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lkh5650:
when i do that,

my phone would show the

galaxy s

logo

then it would show

vibrant

samsung logo

then it will go dark

and repeat this again..and again and again

if i let it go

it just boots to the galaxy s phone (so it would ask me for sim network unlock pin, i can dismiss it to get the phone working.. not rly working.. but android os will show)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oniyuri:
if you're trying to hit download mode, you've got to do a battery pull first.

1. pull battery

2. hold down volume +/-

3. while holding down buttons, reinsert battery & plug in USB.

This works for me everytime.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason123420:
turn the phone off then press vol down home and power once it turns on let the buttons go... if you get a screen that says downloading it works...

then use odin and flash the files from here

try no bootloaders----- 512 .pit and repartition ticked

hope this helps and from now on only flash stuff from the i-9000 thread

Could we get this for the epic I love the puzzle peice lock screen (acs)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
This had been awnsered 100+ times. A simple search would have lead you to the awnser

Hopefully for the last time.

is it possible? Yes

Has it been done? No

Is anyone working on it? No

The reason no one is working on it cause the code ain't there. It would have to be re-coded from scratch. And us devs have better things to do then work on a lock screen.

It is,I used to like screen suite because you could see the home screen,but it lagged bad,you would always see the original lock pop up first. But yeah I guess an app would help the wait...

Yes, I use occasionally the app Lock Menu, which is nice. But, I always go back to the stock lockscreen. But, I'm serious, I will soo root if this gets ported.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
i did a search and didn't see anyone with the same problem. i was able to receive pics from other people, but i when i try to send it to them, they don't receive it. my phone shown sent but they don't even get a text at all. i can however send pic text to myself and receive it. this was from using the stock app.

i then switched to handcent sms and uninstalled the regular text app. i can't receive pic or send pic to them. i can't even receive the pic text i sent to myself. is there some kind of setting i'm suppose to set it to?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
Under settings->send->maximum size, make sure it's set to default 1M. My was set to 5M for some reason and mms never worked right (oversized).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
tried that, still doesn't work with sending pic text or receiving.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] grenademasta:
I currently use Handsent SMS and prefer it over the stock texting app. However I did not remove that. You SHOULD keep it, then set Handcent as your default and get rid of all notifications on the settings of your default text program.

I have a similar issue with you only i removed the stock calander and now my 3rd party calander app wont work :(

sending video to iPhone problem

I searched, but didn't come upon a thread about MMS video problems, but this was the closest thread in nature...

anyone having problems sending video MMS to specifically iPhones? I am able to send to MMS vids to other phones (other Android phones), but when I send a video to an iPhone, they receive it but the sound is garbled when played. Same results happen with both the stock messaging app and Handcent.

(MMS pictures work fine though)

In the video settings of the camera, I have the "Duration" set to 'MMS' and then I've even tried both "Video Sizes"...QVGA and QCIF. All the test video messages I sent to my wife's iPhone have been about 100-150Kb in size. When she receives the video, it plays but the sound is garbled and can't distinguish anything being said.

Any help would be appreciated since my wife likes to receive clips of our baby son while she's at work etc.

using stock non-rooted G2x.

random, but know a guy that works for LG in the mobile department. I asked him about a software update and he replied with the following:

"Yes, there is a software update coming. It should have been out 2 weeks ago, but at the time T-Mobile was thinking of just lumping it in with the Gingerbread update. Now that the Gingerbread update is being moved back to early June (last minute bugs need worked out), we convinced them to let us push the update so at least the users who are experiencing powercycling, freezing, and wifi sleeping will be taken care of."
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AriaNoob:
Compress the pics to 100kb or less and they should go through! Use handcent mms and it compresses them for you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AriaNoob:
I hope that is true, that update being held is doing nothing except making G2x owners look for other smartphones, not to mention potential G2x owners reading all these bad reviews around the forums won't even consider buying a G2x.

So I really don't understand why they would delay the patch when they know it's more than likely going to hurt the sales of the phone.

These companies seem to always make really dumb choices.

Happy customers equal BIGGER profits in the long run, that should be the main goal IMHO.

has the phone been flashed a custom rom?

if so go into messages > settings> and switch the mms client
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jurassic5:
so nobody else has any problems sending videos to iPhones? pictures and regular texts go through fine, it's only the audio of the video part that is all garbled and messed up. my G2x is a stock non-rooted phone with the stock messaging app. (i've tried handcent and Go SMS and the vids still don't go through correctly to iPhones).

as for the patch, i asked him when LG is planning to release it...he made it seem like it should be soon.
