Try to open kies as admin
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fender77:
Have tried that, but it seems to be related to the phone and not whether kies is run as admin or not as admin.

Wierd issue. Wonder if it's just kies beeing an a** again or the phone is playing up.

Could this have something to do with branding?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bogdan1234:
Open it in compatibility mode (right click - properties - Compatibility - Win XP sp3). Apply and run as admin. It should work flawless.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HabeHandy:
speculation:

Have you set a Device Administrator on i9000?

Setting-> Location an security -> select device administrator
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fender77:
Nope, no device admins in that feature. I will try to run kies in xp mode to see if that can make any difference.

So I am in the Tmobile us 2.2.1 version as of now I followed antony.ps's how to to the letter and now I am stuck on that dreaded "M" boot logo.

Yes I reflashed the sbf with rsdlite and yes i wiped data/factory reset.

I am able to boot into my old rom with 2ndinit and i can get to cwm

I believe this started when i updated to 2ndinit defy 1.6, does some one have 1.4?

Sorry I made another post I can't post in dev forums yet.

Is there any possibility of dual-booting IOS and and WP7 on an iPhone 4? I'm really interested in playing the Xbox Live games on my iPhone. So that's my main goal. If there is another way to do this, I would be interested in the info. Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] Dyskmaster:
Most likely not. Android can be ported to the iPhone because it is open source whereas windows phone 7 os is very much closed source.

Also, windows phone has special hardware requirements and, if im not mistaken, the Iphone 4 does NOT use the same qualcomm chipset as windows phone.

You would also have issues with your hi-res screen becasue windows phone only supports WVGA at the moment.

So it is probably not possible,

Sorry.
[General Questions and Answers] ojdon:
Without any source it won't be possible at all. That's why people have been successful in porting Android to the iPhone series.
[General Questions and Answers] Jbbrack03:
Thanks. I figured that there was probably a reason why it hadn't been done yet. I appreciate the info!
[General Questions and Answers] evolutionqy7:
Why dont ya just get a windows phone?

Ported OS to another phone will never work as smoothly as a real device dedicated for the job.

If you seen android running on the iPhone it was never really that usable. Even when i had the HD2 Android was still buggy and laggy.

[EVO 4G General] dcmasta:
So i'm finally returning my EVO to best buy today. I've had the broken screen around the edges and hear stuff moving around in there.

I've been dealing with it for almost 6 months and decided instead of flashing the new kingdom port, I'll just return it and wait for the ROM to finalize.

So the question I have is:

When I called BB this morning about the warranty they said I have 2 options.

I could get my phone repaired and it could take up to 30 days before I see it back (I will be dying on the inside!) or I could get a "Like new" refurbished one in 4 business days.

Anyone have any experience with either of the two with them?
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
Should be fine with a refurbished, i wouldn't wait 30 days without an Evo, even if they paid me
[EVO 4G General] dcmasta:
I know this is going to be hell for me :(

My fear is with previous refurb experience there will be other flaws when I get it.....
[EVO 4G General] Chuki82:
my experience with refurbs, has been good.

IMO, a refurb is probably better then new since its been repaired, and inspected for functionality, rather then being boxed up coming off an assembly line.
[EVO 4G General] dcmasta:
While very true, cosmetically they're usually not up there.
[EVO 4G General] dcmasta:
well i returned it. they gave me the transform as a loaner. I opted for the replacement instead of the repair. This is going to be a long week. How I will miss her!
[EVO 4G General] yelserp87:
They have recently changed their service method:

1) get repaired wait the FULL 30 days! (old method)

2) Rapid Exchange: get refurb in less than 2 weeks (usually takes a few days)

You still have no lemon coverage. After 3 valid repairs/refurbs, if you still have an issue with your phone, then you get credit towards a new phone with similar specs. If you wants something more expensive (from evo to epic) then you pay the diff. You also have to pay for another svc plan as your old one gets fulfilled.
[EVO 4G General] ballerx43:
1. Get insurance on your next phone through Sprint... they've REPLACED not repaired my evo at least ten times and iI haven't had to pay even a cent.

2. My experience with returns has been bad, notably the last two I've had one of them had a broken vibrate motor... it wouldn't vibrate until I hit the phone and the other had a burn in mark on the screen due to the previous owner overclocking.

My opinion, find out if you can skip those 30 days and turn then into 4 business days... make sure you get a new phon
[EVO 4G General] Sunsparc:
Yeah the Best Buy insurance may *seem* better, but it's actually not.

I tell customers all the time that come from Best Buy, Sprint TEP is actually the better deal. 1. It's cheaper 2. We have faster turn around times. If we repair a device, it takes about an hour to do so. If we exchange a device, it's overnighted. It'll arrive the very next day (save for weekends) if ordered before 3:30pm.

If you have the Sprint TEP, there's no charge for a repair or exchange. If you don't, it's $35 to cover the costs that are normally paid by TEP. If something happens to the device within 30 days, you just have to bring it back in and won't be charged the $35 again, which is also time for you to add TEP.
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
You forgot: TEP covers theft/loss.
[EVO 4G General] dcmasta:
what about the $125 deductible for smart phones? or is that gone all together?

Since there is no deductible with BB, that is what sold me. Sprint charged me $125 to replace my piece of crap Centro, Sent me 6 refurbs, all broken in some way.

Been Burned a bunch so thats what also sold me.
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
Sprint charges 100
[EVO 4G General] jj972:
I recently wet my evo, (dropped in the toilet), took it to bb and they gave me a loaner phone while it was sent for repairs...9 days later they tell me the phone was trashed and gave me a new one... Sold me because I was told sprint charges a deductible.

Hello,

I would like to know what the fastest or newest rom is for the Droid 2. Could you also point me to a list of all Roms compatible with the D2?

Thanks!!
[Droid 2 General] kevcube:
D2 roms are all based on the same system, except tanzanite, which has the most potential but is discontinued, and at this point not very capable. The stock gb leak is at this point my personal favorite.
[Droid 2 General] bigsnack:
What made this tanzanite rom different?
[Droid 2 General] Jmoney47:
Try the apex 2.0 beta. It can be found at www.fabdroid.com

[HTC Inspire 4G] acmys:
There are a bunch of GPS problems on this forum, but...

HTC Inspire, got in March of this year, ATT obviously.

GPS absolutely sucks. Is it really a hardware defect? The location toggle is checked. I'm using Maverick.

Phone's rooted, and if i were to get warranty service, I guess it would suck.

Any tips?

Also, my battery has been terrible since Sunday. I didn't really change anything since then except maybe open Maverick and the Geocaching app.

What's wrong? It's not usually this bad :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] doktor buknasty:
You could try the gps fix AngelDeath created (check the development sub thread).

In your location settings, have only "use gps satellites" option checked.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Printerscape:
If you're referring to my topic, you can see the things I've tried to determine if it's a hardware problem or not. Maybe you should as well.

Backup your ROM/Radio/RIL, and play around with different ROMs, different Radio/RIL combinations. If all fails to fix your GPS issue, than it's hardware issue.

And it doesn't "suck" to bring your phone back to stock. Took me less than 30 minutes, and that includes the download time for the stock ROM, and the rooting ROM (~500MB both).

Good luck trying to convince AT&T to give you a replacement though... read my thread for some laughs. [<-- 2 different links]

"I didn't really change anything" doesn't fly here, because you did change things. Geocaching app is probably what's doing it, since that means the app has to be running full time, with fine measurement chips turned on, which require more power.

Just disable things you don't really need, and prevent non-reoccuring apps from running in the background (like get a Task Manager, but selectively remove apps that should shut down after you're done with it (for example, a game); note that shutting down apps that should be running in the background (like mail, news, etc) would only do harm, as they would automatically start again, and the act of starting an app = takes more battery)).
[HTC Inspire 4G] acmys:
Except I only ran both apps for maybe 30 minutes on Sunday and then turned them off ever since.

After i flashed CM7 with clockwork I got a bootloop. I had to reflash with RSD Lite after that, to get the phone working again... I tried it one more time but with the same result.

- phone is rooted

- usb debugging disabled (rebooted 2 times)

- installed clockwork

- booted into recovery mode

- made a factory reset / wiped cache + dalvik cache

I tried the other instructions with 2nd Init Recovery Installer but i wasn't able to get into the Bootmenu..

Do you have any suggestions how to get the CM7 Rom to work, clockwork solution prefered.

Thanks in advance.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbt:
First: As far as I can tell, your phone looks good. You can go into recovery mode, that's good.

Now: What guide did you follow to create a gold card? Did you correctly reverse the card id (in pairs)?

When I tried to flash my G1 for the first time I solved the "no allow" error with a goldcard. You should try that again.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elharraq:
first, thanks for your answer,

but no, actually i can't get into recov or fastboot,, but i can get into bootloader wich is three colores and information about the phone

about the goldcard: yes i did reverse CID, and i changed the first two numbers to 00, is it alright? or i shall leave them as is
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbt:
The "rainbow screen" is the right one. That's not recovery, sorry, it's fastboot. But from here you can install the DREAIMG file and continue the installation (here's a guide, but I suppose you know how to flash anyways: Cyanogen Wiki about rooting G1).

And you reverse the ID like this:

1234567890

Split up in pairs: 12 34 56 78 90

Then reverse like this: 90 78 56 34 12

I didn't need to replace the first 2 digits with 0. But you can try if it doesn't work for you otherwise.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elharraq:
i tried but still the same problem 0028002 not allowed, i tried another card but nothing new.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldrifta:
when you reverse your gold card number thing you dont replace the first 2 numbers with 00 you add the 00 to the beginning after reversing them lol im pretty sure..

honestly i never used the gold card before or had to do anything with it but i remember reading a post about it and seen that you had to ad the 00 at the begginning lol sorry man i been looking at other posts with this same problem and so far nobody has a solution yet... but when i find some info for you i will let you know man..

First read this guide and you will have adb installed on your pc so you can run commands on your phone http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532719

now when all that is done and you have your adb installed and your phone connected all you have to do is wipe all data from your phone then load the images required as its been clarified in this post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=566669

now that you have recovery image loaded into your phone go to this site to finish the loading the rest of file as its shown in this post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=442480

was doing all the steps mentioned on those posts and trust me it a long way and it cant be easier than this

so what i did was deleting all data on my phone

mount the sdcard

copy recovery image to the sdcard

and use the command flash_image recover

and i got my phone working

hey did you solve the issue my g1 has the same problem resurrected with riff
[Desire General] InspectorFrost:
Hi

Background: My phone is/was knackered...maybe from overclocking or something...who knows.

Anyway, first the trackpad and down volume key stoped working, a couple of days ago (when screen was off/locked) it would light up for a couple of seconds (as if i pressed the power button) then screen would go off for half a second, then light up again, this repeats till battery dead. tried everything, new rom, radio and resets, nothing worked.

as a last ditch effort i thought i would try an un root to RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed,

may also be worth noting that i was running CM 7.0.3 -hboot 93 - s-off.

after connecting and trying to run the RUU i kept getting ERROR 171, i read in another thread that i should run whilst in fastboot, this time it worked, on screen instruction told me it had finished ok but now im stuck in a bootloop on first screen !

Anyone have an idea of where to go next ?

its also worth mentioning that ive got a Sensation on pre-order which should turn up next week some time so im not going too crazy about this but it would be nice to see if i can fire it up just to satisfy myself that un-rooting has (as i suspected ) had no effect on the problem

cheers (sorry for rambling on)
