[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xxguestxx:
Im a complete noob trying to get a hang of the smartphone rooting lingo. Believe me when i say that i know next to nothing. Ive just finally managed to root my x5 using z4root (i presume it worked...the reset was very fast...but i see that "superuser" is in the apps list now (not that i know what its for anyway.). The reason im trying to learn how to root and install roms etc is coz my x5 will not connect to my wifi and trust me, ive tried everything that has been suggested on other forums..ive tried all the basics. Im noob, but not THAT noob ok ^^. But i dont know what effects installing a custom rom might have on the wifi at this stage. I see that a custom rom can allow for wifi teethering. So im hoping that might help , sumhow. Its worth a try , before i throw the thing out the window ^^.

So basically anyway , my question is:

Ive rooted the phone (im pretty sure)....so what should i do next? and in the correct sequence, to get my phones hacked software up to spec with you guys?.

e.g ..do i install this clockworkmod thing next..and then a rom, then a kernel?...i dont know what any of these things are or what they are used for...so if anyone could give me a simple bullet pointed list of what to install and in what order...id be VERY VERY grateful =) ...its doing my head in trying to read through these tutorials and trying to figure out what everyones even talking about ^^". Dont have to get too carried away..just a simple list and the correct order will do...i will figure out the rest. (As long as you dont miss any step out of course e.g ...some app i might need to install a crucial app etc. ) Thank You!!

1) then download to your pc from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1067490 the recovery-en.zip which is the Clockwork Recovery and follow carefully the Detailed Installation from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13083454&postcount=1

2) go to this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1059753 and download to your pc the one it says : Complete rom with all fixes and 1.5Ghz kernel

and then follow the instructions carefully from the same post...

then hopefully you are ready....

BUT BE CAREFUL AND READ EVERYTHING AND BE SURE THAT YOU HAVE UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING BEFORE STARTING

//and an advice from me (i'm very new also in adroid) that in every step you should check again the steps from the posts so you don't forget something...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xxguestxx:
Ok, so far ive got as far as renaming recovery.img to recovery.bak and copied the new recovery.img into the same folder. So i presume clockwork recovery is installed now?.

Next i downloaded the 100mb ,or so, rom and have copied it to the sd card. But now i dont know how to "boot to clockworkmod". Is it the same as holding volume keys and power button?...coz if it is, when i do that part it comes up with a purple screen. Otherwise.....how do i boot to clockworkmod?..or does the purple screen mean that somethings not installed right?....

Thanks again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] AliWam:
Volume-Up + Power button should bring you to the recovery menu.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xxguestxx:
Excellent...Volume up +.....that made a difference. thanks for that..i shall now continue the process. Thanks =)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xxguestxx:
ok next problem...in clockworkmod i go to "apply update from sdcard"..then it says these things:

Install from SDcard

-Finding update package...

-Opening update package...

-E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip

(No such file or directory)

Installation aborted.

do i need to create an "sdcard" folder in the sdcard itself...then put the zip file in it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xxguestxx:
nevermind ...i see it Matters which sdcard u put the rom onto....looks like its gota be the external one...not the internal one...ok ...moving on.....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xxguestxx:
well its all installed now. Thanks for the tips. Although it didnt fix my wifi - wireless router connection =x....wonder what it is =x
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ioucorsa:
if you have your wifi with pass check if without encryption it connects...

just to see all the possibillities...

if you continue to have problems without encryption then some compatibility is the problem...

have you checked it with other wifi?

if this happens only with your router then you can search for a more specific solution...

hi,i Just upgraded to latest version of Sense, as prompted. I now find that I can't send texts to certain people - either from compose or when replying... i get a quick 'please wait' message and what I've typed stays on screen. If I exit the screen, the msg is stored as draft. If I re-open, I still can't send it. If I compose a msg to one of the people I can't send messages to but also send it to myself, then it gets sent! this is frustrating and means i cant use the text facility easily. I have rebooted the phone, checked the numbers and APN settings, all are ok (all worked fine before the upgrade). please help.. .? thanks, mark

Hi Guys!

I have a HTC Magic 32B with the following characteristics:

SPL - 1.33.2005 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-10

RADIO - 3.22.20.17

I once had the Cyanogenmod 6 installed (not sure which version), but then I tried to update it, and now I'm stuck... I've tried to install several MOD's, but without success...

Which MOD should I install, with which SPL / Radio? What should be the best for this phone? Someone told me the Yoshi MOD, I tried to install but I don't think I have the right SPL...

I'm sorry for openning a new post regarding this, I'm sure there should be plenty of them, but this is so specific, and I've been searching for information on this for almost a week :/

Thanks in advance guys!

I'm looking for a firmware that has Greek in input and & menus.

I have already tried a few firmwares, most provided Greek Menus but none had Greek Input in Samsung Keyboard & Swype.

Can someone help me and tell me which firmware to put?

Please, I want to avoid third-party input programs such as Smart Keyboard or Pro Keyboard.

A little off-topic: How do I flash 1 package firmwares?

I get some errors when phone starts and it's unable to boot, I use Odin 1.82 and I have Auto-Reboot & F. Reset Time selected and I select the package in PDA with 512 PIT.

Do I do something wrong?

One package 2.3.3 firmwares are:

I9000BUJV9

JVH_JV3_JPO

I9000XWJVB

I9000XWJVA_LUXJV2_XXJVK

EDIT: I tried again and it worked.

The only firmware that does what I'm saying is I9000BUJV9 which is branded and is by Vodafone

I want to avoid branded firmware

[Atrix 4G Accessories] chuddly:
So I'm the kind of person that figures if I want it bad enough and someone doesnt make it ill just build it. And because i wanted a hard case for the protection but also wanted a car dock for the music/navigation but the 2 were never really possible from what i had found. So I got the Speck Candy shell case and then ordered the original Motorola car dock and decided to see what i could do.

The dock showed up at my house last night and within 10 min of it being in my house i had taken the whole thing apart and started cutting and trimming to make things fit. I had to cut the side curves off the ends of the car dock (not needed because now my top clip keeps it from moving side to side along with the USB port). I also had to cut out the USB port chip board from the dock and move it up about 1/16"-1/8" so that it would make perfect contact with the phone while it still had the case on it. I also had to notch my Speck case so that the top clip on the car dock now clips onto the case instead of the actual phone because of the thickness of the case doesn't allow the clip to reach all the way over. I haven't had time to make it look pretty yet (ill try to do that this week) and i didn't have time to take any pictures (but i will if you guys want them) but it does work and I'm THRILLED with it.

Hi,

I wanted to know how this NFC chip works? I heard office access cards use NFC, so say if that is true, how do i replicate the access authorizations on the S2? Do I calibrate the access card with the S2 NFC chip??
[Galaxy S II General] slice77:
Most office access cards do not use NFC, they'll use a different type of RFID. Depending on the company, hardware, and NFC chip, you may be able to use it for access, but I doubt it in most cases.

Regardless, the SGS2 in your hand does not have NFC capabilities unless you're in S. Korea.
[Galaxy S II General] angynagpal:
Or in India ;)!
[Galaxy S II General] slice77:
Lucky you!

If you do have an NFC equipped SGS2, then try tapping it on your door access reader and see if the reader reacts. If it does, then it probably recorded the UID of the tag in your system. You'll just need your system admin to add that UID to your user account and voila, you're in.

If it doesn't react (I have little experience with the NXP chip in the phone), then you might be able to download an app from the market that will allow you to emulate a tag's UID. Note: After a quick look on the market, I haven't found such an app. One might come about later though, as the functionality to emulate tags was not added until 2.3.3 and most of the NFC apps on the market were created for reading only which came in 2.3. You might have luck contacting an existing NFC developer to add that functionality to their app.

If neither of those work, then your door access system uses a different frequency or protocol all together (the majority do) which means you won't be able to use your phone for access :(

Hope that helps
[Galaxy S II General] ash969:
the indian version has also nfc onboard?

is this confirmed on the indian s2 site?
[Galaxy S II General] angynagpal:
Yeah thanks for all the info :)!! I think I was expecting too much...I thought we would be able to calibrate the access card and the phone (so that it uses the same id that is already recorded by the admin department for access) and it would replace the card!! Anyways....will first have to check whether the card reader reacts to the chip or not first :)!!

Samsung confirmed it on their twitter account!! We shall only know tomorrow for sure though :)!

Greetings.

The screen of my Desire Z seems to be acting weird when displaying certain shades of gray and transitions from black to gray. Gray that is near black becomes much lighter than the rest of the image, although the color should stay the same.

I did a test with an LCD test image to see if I could find out what was wrong, and I discovered that displaying the image in vertical position gave quite a lot of flickering in the middle. Could someone download the picture on their phone and see if they get the same result as me? I get flickering when displaying it in vertical mode all zoomed out, but when I turn it horizontaly everything is fine.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cor-master:
I'm not new to this sort of stuff either. I used odin one time on my phone with no issues what so ever. my wife just had to make a warranty claim on her phone and we just got the replacement, asked her if she wanted me to root and put cognition on and she said sure

Well it had stock 2.2 on it and it wouldn't install clockwork recovery. upon reading that it was the update causing the problem I figured id just use odin to take the phone back to 2.2. I used a brand new charge cable I've only had for 3 weeks and things started fine but eventually the screen went black and odins progress bar stopped moving... 15 mins went by and nothing was happening... so I knew it was messed up and I unplugged it...

And $125 later I have an ins replacement on the way. Understand that I've been doin this for six months and this is the first time I've ever had a problem... so what happened? major hit to my confidence here!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:

you could use the Odin one click for JH6, that'll take you back to eclair and you can use the Kies mini to update to 2.2 KB1

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sepherian:
You can use the regular JH6 flash back just not the one with the three button mod, this is because the three button mod replaces 1 out of 2 bootloaders and they won't match but the JH6 only replaces both (or none not sure) and they do match
