[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris378:
I recently semi bricked my phone. My baseband version is UKNOWN, so i get no signal for 3G and Voice. But i am able to connect to wifi. I have done all kinds of trouble shooting. Ive been looking for a zip file that i can flash through stock recovery as a update.zip that will put everything back to stock including my radio (Bc i think that is what i have trashed) No computer will show that my phone is connected to it. So Odin and fastboot is not an option. I have been downloading files and placing them in my dropbox account and downloading it to my phone from there. So my question is, Can someone please create a update.zip that will completely wipe my phone out and put everything that was suppose to be on my phone back on there.

I Have a Nexus S through Sprint D720

Android Version 2.3.4

Build Number GRJ22

Model Number Nexus S

Thanks in Advance and i will Donate money to whoever can fix my issue!

Trying to get my phone connected to my a500 via USB cable. The nexus1 recognizes that it is connected and i can turn on USB storage, but the a500 doesnt seem to see the phone at all (nothing shows up in /mnt/usb_storage).

anyone have any luck doing this?

[LG Optimus 2x] baste07:
I have some questions on the O2X, hope someone can shed some light

1) How do i delete facebook, tweeter, myspace for LG on the phone, i am rootd and have titanium pro, but i can't see any of this apps on the list for me to remove.

2) how can i set so the phone doesn't require my passcode evertime screen turns off or if push the power button to manually put the phone to sleep?

3) is there an OTA update option on the phone? i had HTC phones before and there are options in the settings menu for me to check OTA if there any updates availabe for my phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
1.You have to remove SNS.apk from the system/app directory.

2. IF you mean you never want to have the lockscreen go into Settings > Location & Security > Change screen lock to none. If you want a delay before the lock kicks in I do not know but there is likely to be a way

3. The updates seem to be wired from LG PC Suite
[LG Optimus 2x] baste07:
thanks for giving the answer to my question #1.

for #2, yup i need it to take longer to require the lock code (i still want it to ask for the code after 5 or 10 mins and not just automatically when the phone sleeps or i press the power button to turn the screen off)

for #3 i figured i was only through the PC app. would have been better if it had an OTA update.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvrotc:
Im looking at picking up a galaxy tab for 350 brand new from sprint without a contract. I was going to purchase a wifi only version of the tab but was warned by some of the gurus on here that it has a weaker processor and after some research turns out they were correct. So i found this one , my question is , i have no intention of activating it with sprint EVER i just want to use it as a wifi tab. is this possible? or do i need a contract to start using it??
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonzbabysh:
I say pick up a used tmobile one craigslist, more dev community and has 16gb internal vs I believe 8gb on both cdma tabs. If I'm wrong someone please correct me.

S SGT

I just got my sprint GT in the mail yesterday and rooted it last night. I paid 315 shipped from a ebay seller, never activated and is working great on wifi only right now. I have alot testing and mods to go though. It was manufatured at the end of april, 2011. Pretty happy just need to find out if boot loader is locked still?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killerb777:
I'd go with a gsm (at&t or tmobile) as suggested. I just got a sprint one not knowing the differences in cdma and gsm. Although it works great and fits my needs, it only has 2gb internal w/ 16gb card and very little roms available. And yes it can be used wifi only. I'm able to tether from my Dinc and connect to wifi at home. Worth the 280 I paid.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Timanator:
I have teh Sprint Tab which I use for wifi only. It's had issues but Samsung took care of it pretty quickly under warranty. killerb777 is correct, it is 2gb onboard, and 16 gb in the SD slot upgradable to 32.
[Nook Color General] michaelg1030:
So I just got a nook color and obviously I want to root it, but heres what I would like to know. Should I upgrade to 1.2 first? I figure if Im going to root, then I dont need the features of 1.2 If I root and install CM7 with CWR and all that good stuff to the eMMc can I put it back to stock nook at any point (like in case I want to return it)? My understanding is that autonooter is to install android to an microSD card and you still have stock nook when not booted from sd, correct?

Im not looking to run HC and Id think Id like to keep the features that the nook has, but is booting off SD really that slow? Can I still over clock if booting off sd? Besides CM7 is there a stable working froyo or GB rom? I run Chevy's SS 5.2 on my D1 which is GB with some tweaks and would like something similar.

I know its a lot, but id appreciate the help, search for all of these is very overwhelming as most of the answers are buried in 100's of replies.
[Nook Color General] Taosaur:
Running from SD can be at least as fast as eMMC and does not require rooting, and you can upgrade stock without worrying. The "Android Odyssey" blog post linked in my sig has links to all the resources you'll need for a fast and painless CM7 set-up.

Maybe you'll still want to root afterward, but I started out intending to just 'try out' CM7 on SD, and couldn't be happier with my system as-is.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrocka01:
I'm seeing different answers in different threads. I need to reinstall 2.3.4 but have to go back to earlier version first. ClockworkMod was suggested to me but the only way to get that is to unlock the bootloader or root. And both of them wipe the SD storage, right?:confused:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demo23019:
EDIT

it does format
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrocka01:
How can I copy it? I lost USB connectivity, from the manual 2.3.4 install, which is why I'm trying to go back to an older version in the first place. No SD card on the NS. Are you sure it won't delete the SD storage? I have A LOT of picture(that were on a card before the NS) and I would DIE if I lost them; pretty much EVERY picture of my 8 month old baby. Have you done this personally and your SD data was intact?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timhl7:
I locked and unlocked and it did format my SD card. Maybe try getting the photos off through adb

I recently sent my phone out for repair to Samsung i loaded stock rom and locked my bootloader and had to format my sd because after i did all that my data was still there

I just tried and lost my data so i hope you didn't listen to me
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrocka01:
Nope, still too much of a puss to pull the trigger. Thanks for letting me know for sure. Any other ideas?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demo23019:
no you're not a puss you would have lost everything..i felt bad after i double checked on my phone
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peeturr:
Only time your SD is wiped is by fastboot UNLOCKING your boot loader. Locking it will keep your data intact. The other way of wiping your SD is by selecting format SD card in Clockwork. Moving between versions of Android does not wipe your SD. When I say SD, I mean your personal stuff like pictures, music, downloads etc.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrocka01:
The reason I'm trying to go to an earlier version is because I lost USB connectivity after a manual 2.3.4 install, which means I can't access my SD storage. The only ways to do that are by 1)unlocking the bootloader or 2)rooting to put on CWM. Both of which wipe my SD storage. Or an I mistaken? Can you think of an alternative? Again, the key issue is NO USB CONNECTIVITY.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
Have you tried removing the device via device manager and reinstalling the appropriateusb driver? 2.3.4 doesn't have a non functional USB storage.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrocka01:
It's showing up as Unknown Device and when I try to update the drivers it says they're up to date. Do you manually install 2.3.4? Have you heard about this issue from anyone else?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wild1z:
When you say you lost usb connectivity, do you mean when in the bootloader? If so you need to install the drivers from PDAnet I believe. If you are having issues mounting the drive while the phone is on, try reinstalling the device/drivers after you uninstall, reboot and use another USB port.

Hope that helps. Otherwise, sorry to waste your time. Good luck. :)

EDIT: Now I think I follow what you are saying. I went into recovery to mount the SD card and NADA, then USB mass storage devices, NADA. Same issue as this post right? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1072884&page=2 One of the gents recommends disabling USB legacy devices in the BIOS but I am not so sure if that will help. I had this same issue on my EVO with another recovery.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djluis48:
Hi guys, im going back to android (had a G1 a year ago) from blackberry (got tired) and im getting two good offers on these phones, but since these smartphones are SO different to what i used to have (G1 xD), im kinda confused wich one is better, so i want you guys to help me out here, wich is one should i get? Vibrant or myTouch 4G?

Internet speed its not important since i don't live in a 4G area (in fact, there isn't any 4G coverage at all in my country), but i like to play games and stuff like that. I like my phone to be fast and with very little lag. I have read on internet that Samsung's Hummingbird processor its better than the Snapdragon proccesor that the myTouch 4G have, but, i don't know why, i keep reading on forums that the myTouch 4G is faster than the Vibrant...how is that possible? The Vibrant have more RAM, ROM (16GB Internal, the myTouch have only 4GB), faster proccesor, better GPU...well, im a little confused there too.

Any opinions?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tKoHaXoR:
Mytouch 4G. It has way more features and has a bigger community of devs.

Camera with FLASH! Trackpad. Front Camera. Metallic build quality.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peddent:
With both phones stock, the HTC has 700+ mb of ram available and the Vibrant has only 304+ available. The other issue is file systems. The HTC uses I think ext4 and the Vibrant uses its home grown system of RFS. I feel the RFS system is probable the biggest issue to slow the phone down. I have mine rooted with custom rom that uses ext4 (voodoo) and it is faster with much better battery life then all the stock MT4G's that I have seen. If you are not going to root anything then I would recommend the MT4G or even look at the G2x. But the screen on the vibrant is killer
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
myTouch4G has 768mb ram, Vibrant has 512mb (about 330mb is available for Android to use, depending on the rom).

I'd say the MSM8255 Snapdragon is probably on-par with the Hummingbird in the SGS - the SGS does have a much better GPU for 3D gaming, though.

The Vibrant may have a 16gb ROM, but only 2gb is available for app storage, the rest is treated as an internal SD card.

They would both be great phones, but the Vibrant has the better screen.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfranklin1986:
I have a vibrant and my wife has a mt4g. I would say if youre going to root and flash roms get the vibrant, but if youre going to leave it stock get the mt4g. Both phones were laggy stock to me. Im much happier with the dev community for the vibrant though. I've flashed 6 or 7 different roms on the mt4g (including cm7) but none of them seem as complete as bionix or trigger
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djluis48:
Ok, i forgot to say this, but im TOTALLY going to root the phone. In fact, is one of the mains reasons that im comming back to android (and here plays the song "Im comming home" by Dirty Money :p), i love flashing roms, looking for bugs in new roms, the excitement of someone releasing a new rom (like Cyanogen), trying out weird apps in the market place and all that kind of stuff, i DON'T like stock phones at all...i installed OS6 on my Blackberry 9300 as soon as i got it, looking for something different (running away from stock), still was a pretty boring phone tough.

You have told me guys that both phones stock, the MT4G its faster, but what about both phones rooted? Should i get the Vibrant? Or even both phones rooted, the myTouch its still better?

EDIT: Also, are the Samsung Vibrant and the Samsung Captivate the exact same device? Under the hood, of course.

FFC? Whats that? Sorry for the noobie question...

Well, I absolutely love my vibrant. Plenty fast (q score 1600+), amoled screen rules, and camera takes amazing pix. Flash isn't an issue since I don't really take pix in the dark lol.

It has less ram, but its near impossible to hard brick from what I've read. I'd say go vibrant, and if you don't like it, flash back to stock and exchange for the mt4g.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdgiese90:
Well, I'd say that if you don't have 4g coverage, why buy a 4g phone. Its like buying a Ferrari when you live in Poland. Maybe not as expensive, but you can't take full advantage of it. Lol.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devin5277:
If you are into gaming, then vibrant hands down. Here are the things I would take into consideration.

1. Bigger dev community for the mytouch4g. I think most of the people with the vibrant will be leaving for the Sensation or the galaxy 2 if they have the funds. I am going with the galaxy S 2 myself. With that being said the development will dwindle down to nothing by the end of the summer.

2. There are great roms for the vibrant right now. Trigger, Bionix, and a bunch of stable 2.2.1 roms to choose from.

3. I don't know if a stable cm7 will ever happen for the vibrant. They have it working ok. Plenty of bugs, and bad battery. Also no 2.3 rom has working gps because of drivers. You will have to wait on a leaked 2.3 rom for the vibrant I think.

I love my vibrant for gaming. I have about 5 Gameloft games.. bogo for $2.99 . Can't beat that. And the phone handles them beautifully. I am running Trigger btw, just because I wanted a stable rom until I get the galaxy 2 .

I hope this helps with your decision, I know I rambled a bit. But I think i covered everything on the development side for you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdgiese90:
Cm7 runs fine for me. However, I don't use GPS so it suits my needs. Runs fast needs daily charge, but meh, that's what sleep is for lol

Heres my input on this i have three phones. G2 , vibrant and evo 4g just the phone. From my experience i like the g2 better because of cm7 second is vibrant with probably one of the best custom roms out there until cm7 is stable . Evo still messin with it but saw there threads lots of roms. As far mytouch 4g . I hate that phone it does have a nice spec . But it look like a girls phone with the funky design. Just my opinion
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djluis48:
Thanks for all the answers! I really appreciate it!

I have a question: What about the durability? I have read that the build quality on the MT4G its better than the Vibrant, that the Vibrant feels cheap on your hand, but on the other side, i haven't read about anyone having hardware issues with the Vibrant. Comments on this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdgiese90:
Vibrant is the slimmest and lightest phone from what I've read, but I could be wrong.

However, it is not synonymous with cheap. It has a gorilla glass screen like all sgs phones have, and the case is put together very well. I've dropped my phone on a concrete floor dozens of times and I took the liberty of scratching at my screen with a dinner fork and it didn't even leave a mark. Not that I would recommend that but I did it so...

As far as internals, you will probably NEVER hard brick your vibrant. It is still to be done to my knowledge, and even when I was overclocked to 1.3ghz and charging my phone at the same time, the battery stayed at an acceptible charge temp (46°c)

Its just a beautiful thing really..
