Unfortunately I did connect to odin ... But there was not yellow port... Simply odin didn't recognize...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gfacer:
Right after battery inserted? You might reinstall the drivers too? Keep trying. Clean the usb port on the phone, try a different odin etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imkr1:
I now reinstalled the driver although It's already in my laptop.. so after that should I put the battery first or put it later after plug in to my laptop?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
Hold VOL down + home + power then put the battery in whilst still holding these buttons :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imkr1:
Still that "Phone--->PC" display after i did as you instruct.. while odin still not get "Yellow ports" at all..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
You need a jig then bud, £9.99 from eBay, that will definately work for you bud :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imkr1:
Thanks mate, I think it's the last choice.. anyways i'll try to go to some mobile shop to see if they have the JIG, even though i don't think they might have...

Good 9. from Phnom Penh , Cambodia...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
Mobile phone shops won't sell them bud, where are you in the world?

Lady luck shines on me.... The service center only charged me 10$.. now tying to get 3 buttons combo work before flashing again...

Yeahhhhh, finaly I managed to recover my SGS that had the same problems as described above in this thread. I just used Amro90 method and it came back to download mode and the I refalshed a clean stock 2.3.4 JVQ rom and everything went fine. Thank you guys and the JIG method is useless in this case (not soft brick, but totaly dead phone).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nugzo:
Because of the recent sense 3.0 roms , specifically the long wait times and lock ups when rebooting, I've thought about how nice it would be to have an activity light while booting. Is this possible? you know like a Hard drive activity light on your PC or laptop. Something that could flicker the LED when there is activity while the phone is booting? So you know you haven't locked up.. Devs is this possible? Users do you guys think that would be a valuable mod?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprintTouchPro2:
Hey guys,

I tried to root my my evo 4g with the instructions from the sticky and when I started the autoroot file as it said, it would get to found root then establishing something and the cmd would close out and my phone would stay in the bootloader mode. Instructions said to go to recovery if it didn't continue and I did go into recovery and all it gave me was a black screen with the red triangle and nothing was happening so I pulled out the battery to restart the phone. Now my phone boots up normally and it just freezes up after maybe 30 seconds of use everytime and just reboots and it repeats over and over again nonstop. It won't be recognized by my computers and it just says unidentified with the CDMA drivers not working and the phone does not recognize the SD card when its running and booted up. Please help if you guys know what I could do to make it stop restarting. Thanks in advance!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Try re-rooting via unrevoked. Click on unrevoked in my signature and follow the directions, but first, boot into the bootloader screen (after shutting off the device, simultaneously press the DOWN volume button and the power button until the device starts). Look at the top of the screen and see if it displays "S-OFF". If it does, great, you're rooted, bit if it displays "S-ON" then follow the rooting method of unrevoked or retry the method you used. If it does indeed display "S-OFF", I suggest you flash a custom recovery like amon_RA.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprintTouchPro2:
Well I can't do that since it won't recognize the phone through USB or recognize the SD card
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprintTouchPro2:
Update: I just flashed my evo with the stock 3.70.651.1 rom using a card reader putting the PC36IM something file on the SD card and used bootloader to flash and It's still not recognizing the SD card and it's still freezing up 1 minute after it has booted up and restarts and repeats the loop.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccollins102:
I sorta have a similar problem. I have a rooted evo running CM7 .

trying to use HDMI cable with a 1080p vizio LCD TV. Nothing happens. Does CM7 support the HDMI video out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
can you send me the autorootlog.txt file? that should show what happened to it. And def don't try rooting it with anything else while the phone is in an inconsistent state, that is just asking to corrupt it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimReaper24:
Use unrevoked 3 my guide has all you need links and so on :D

I like unrevoked 3 easy to root and unroot . All the other programs that work for rooting can make unrooting a pain in the butt. Do what you want you want .

You don't have a recovery installed that's why you get black screen and triangles . Use amon 2.3
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
how is unrooting different?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimReaper24:
I'm not going to war with you on that man :D just saying turn s off flash a stock Ruu the latest and your good to go. Trying to find a auto or one click unrooting program to unroot can be a pain to do if your h boot is to new or old .

I'm sure your way is good I just prefer unrevoked 3 is all. Not dogging your root way. Just familiar with unrevoked 3 use it to root everyone's phone I know.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Well you're saying there's a difference in how you have to unroot when it's not true. Or at least that I know of, if there is I'm curious as to how.

Autoroot will try to downgrade the hboot to the unlocked engineering leak, if successful it's finished and all you have to do to unroot is run the RUU. If it's unable to downgrade the hboot it will bring up the stock recovery and use unrevoked forever to unlock the nand; when this is used you have to flash the s-on tool (that is left on the sdcard as URFSOn.zip) and then flash the RUU to unroot.

Unrevoked 3 breaks in through the hboot and unlocks the nand through the radio, so you will also have to use the s-on tool and flash the RUU.

You're also telling him to keep trying to root when his phone is obviously in a weird state, that's bad advice unless you want him to end up bricked like a ton of people did when the latest firmware came out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimReaper24:
no I'm not telling him to brick his phone. He doesn't have a recovery on his phone that is what he needs . Just saying if he does end up rerooting at some point he can try unrevoked 3 just a suggestion. My advice isn't bad not new to rooting or flashing. Pretty good at trouble shooting .
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprintTouchPro2:
Well how do I get a recovery? I thought I have one since I have the option to go there? Gives me a red triangle with a phone under it. Once i mash the volume up and down and power button at the same time and hold it in for a bit a menu pops up to update from SD card or to clear storage and some other options. But anyway I reflashed the stock rom from bootloader and it's still doing the freeze after 30 seconds of use and restarts over and over again. So how do I actually get recovery and what do I do after that to make this stupid restarting of my phone to stop.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
I'll need to take a look at your autorootlog.txt file in order to find out what's up with your phone. It should be in the autoroot folder and you can post it by using the 'manage attachments' button, if it doesn't want to let you for some reason you can also email it to me.

edit: odds are you're phone is still locked but it won't hurt to try flashing the recovery, all you have to do to flash it is run the FlashZip script that came with AutoRoot and select the one that says Amon RA - hausmod. That's if it's unlocked of course, if it says s-on or that the security is still on then your phone will reject it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprintTouchPro2:
There you go, there is my autorootlog
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprintTouchPro2:
I'm not too worried about this as I took the phone to sprint and they ordered me a new phone since they didn't know what was wrong with it and I'll get it today or tomorrow but I just want to figure out what went wrong so that I know what to do if I am to root my new phone..cause this autoroot I used on this website messed up and I followed every step perfectly.
[General Questions and Answers] frost0180:
Downloaded Rom from cm7 and at load screen it just keeps replaying over and over again. Tried to download Cm7 zip file on my sd card and when I put it back into my phone it didn't do anything. Any suggestions from you brains of xda?
[General Questions and Answers] Bigdragon2k3:
Did you follow the instructions when flashing the rom such as wiping dalvic cache and data prior to flashing the rom.
[General Questions and Answers] nattyddubbs:
You need to download google apps as well my phone did this when trying to flash. Download gapps (located on this thread) and put that on your sd. Reboot into recovery and do wipe of cache and data before installing gapps first and cm7 again. This happened to me as well and as soon as gapps was on there everything worked fine. Good luck!
[Droid X General] Vettesfan:
I updated my phone to .595 rooted and deodexed whenever I try installing a theme it bootloops. I have tried three themes and none will load. Any ideas?
[Droid X General] Vettesfan:
Now I am bootlooping after flashing .596 rooted and deodexed from TBH app and a theme. I cannot access CWR to attempt to try just reflashing .596. Will i need to SBF back to .340 to move forward?

FYI I was on the original dxgbrooteddeodexed.zip with a theme when i started this and everything worked perfect
[Droid X General] Jmoney47:
You may want to try an SBF
[Droid X General] Vettesfan:

[G2 and Desire Z General] teh5abiking:
Well. . . I never thought it would come to this, but what else is there for me to do on my rooted G2? :confused:

-I've already got Ubuntu Karmic Koala working on my G2 (after several failed attempts with adb)

-I've already got backups of Virtuous, Virtuous G-Lite, and Cyanogenmod

-I've already got superCID, SIM Unlock, and radio S-OFF

-I've already the ability to underclock/overclock my G2

What else is there to do?

I already did everything that I did to my G1 on my G2, and then some.

What is there left for me to do?

Is there a ROM of webOS, Symbian, Maemo, etc. for Android?

Is there a ROM of TouchWiz or even Motoblur for other Android devices?

Can I dual-boot between any mobile operating system platform on my G2? Seriously, what is there left for me to do?

I thought that rooting my G2 was gonna open up a huge realm of possibilities for me, and that would mean I could turn my mini-computer into the ultimate nerd weapon, but right now, I'm feeling pretty restricted.

Is there anything left to do? Or did I reach the proverbial end of the rooting world?
[G2 and Desire Z General] floored24:
Sounds like your done...youve run all the best roms ,why dual boot are u an app dev?
[G2 and Desire Z General] teh5abiking:
I've dabbled in developing applications, but nothing long term.

I just want to know what else there is to do. I thought Android was the realm of semi-infinite possibilities, and that rooting my phone would allow me to unlock some of the restrictions that the manufacturer/carrier places on my device. But so far, I still feel restricted. I wanna know if there's anything else I can do to my G2. It pains me to see a $200 device be nothing more than a sub-par cellphone.

Seriously, is this it? Should I have gone with an HD2 instead of the G2? At least with an HD2, I can dual-boot between multiple operating systems, with a bit of modding.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lawalty:

[Optimus V Android Development] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
You are a Godsend. My buddy has an Optimus C. I found instructions for rooting, but was having a hard time scaring up ROMS. Any chance of some screen shots? Does this have an OC kernel?
[Optimus V Android Development] rebel101150:
No unfortunately it doesn't. Screenshots i'm working on (it saves them all in PNG which the site won't recognize).

An overclock kernel is being worked on, the base of this is the standard kernel. We do have one working but it's not ready for release yet.

So they will be up soon.

make sure he has the custom recovery menu. It won't flash properly without it. We worked a few days on that as well.
[Optimus V Android Development] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
If you're using Shoot Me, you can set the prefs to save as jpg.

By custom recovery, do you mean the one in the stickied post or CWM?

Biggest thing is the speed of the default device, I'll keep an eye here and get serious when the OC kernel is ready.... I think I'll need a pretty compelling argument to get him to root. Thank you for all your hard work in this area.
[Optimus V Android Development] rebel101150:
http://tomp90xjourney.blogspot.com/

Just use that to download it
[Optimus V Android Development] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
Just curious since I didn't see any screenshots (he hasn't given me the nod yet, either) What kind of overclocks have you gotten and how is your battery life?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw it on the blog (read past it at first). 850 MHz? That's almost a 50% OC! The battery life at that speed question still remains. Also, don't see the FAQ link, or is it not up yet? Thanks a bundle. I've gotten fairly proficient with things on my Inspire, but the Optimus looks to be a slightly different monster.
[Optimus V Android Development] mattrb:
I agree, except that it costs more money then VM. The Optimus V also has more support by devs.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Hey, guys. I've noticed other phones having this problem, and it looks like the Xperia Play on Verizon is affected, too. When I go to Menu/Settings/Account & sync and try to add a Facebook account, it goes right back to the Account & sync page without adding Facebook. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it with no success. Is there some sort of workaround?

Thanks
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] b00sted:
looks to be a issue w/ our phone.. I posted the same thing in general.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] thomassafca:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] b00sted:
you are not running stock GB on Verizon tho ;)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Yeah, I suppose I should have posted what I'm running. Currently I'm running Android version 2.3.2, Build number 3.0.E.2.89

All stock. (On a side note, this is also preventing me from rooting at the moment.)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] thomassafca:
Ah ok, sorry! Didn't knew you were running that :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] digitalpirate:
I have the same problem on my Verizon xperia play
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
DigitalPirate, do you also have build 3.0.E.2.89?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] b00sted:
so far that is the only build I have seen on our devices. (verizon)

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Anyone had any luck with this?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ryocoon:
This is a remnant from the other builds I think. On other stock android devices, Facebook can still be a contact provider. Something is blocking it in the OS level from some tweak by SonyEricsson.

HOWEVER! You can get around it by using SonyEricsson's Life.Contacts as a synch partner to synch up FB contacts.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sonyericsson.zwooshi
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] radio five:
Hmm... I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the link.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] icebear8:
i have verizon play as well and i cant add Facebook to my accounts sooo im gonna say its only with verizon
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CapNM77:
Same here can't synce it either!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ryocoon:
Yeah, this is an issue, I think, that has to do with Sony stripping the Xperia facebook-in-android experience parts out of the phone, but forgetting to re-enable the FB built-in synch that it was blocking.

So for right now, you have to use the Life.Contacts app to be able to synch FB. The problem with it though, is that the config is only available through Life.Contacts' widget. So it makes it a bit of a pain. It also only works with one account type at a time. So you can't use Life.Contacts to synch FB, Twitter, and other social networks at the same time to my knowledge.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Ok so... How do you actually get this to work? I downloaded and installed life.contacts and linked to my facebook, but my contact still don't show their pictures and info. Did I do something wrong?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
In addition to this now once or twice a day I get a notification in my notification bar that asks me to link to facebook, I click it, it opens a facebook thing that says its already linked, I click ok, and then I get something on the screen that says "Facebook Contacts Synced". However this has done nothing, still no pics/links. Anyone have any ideas?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ryocoon:
Place the Life.Contacts widget somewhere on one of your screens. There should be a little wrench icon on it. Click that to load the settings for Life.Contacts, and you can then choose for the FB contacts to be shown, only shown if they match up, or not shown at all. For some reason it may have defaulted to not shown or not matched up.

Short of that, remove and reinstall.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Heres whats strange. So I installed it the first time, it allowed me to pick facebook, brought me to the facebook "allow" screen which I said yes. It said getting data from facebook and then successfully connected. At that point it never synced my facebook, and I don't have the options you say. Occasionally it notifies me to connect with facebook and I do that dance again and facebook says its already authorized.

I tried deleting and re-installing the app, I tried removing permissions from facebook, then deleting the app, etc. I never ever see the options you mentioned.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ryocoon:
The options don't show up unless you use the widget. Long-press on a blank home screen (or one that has at least a 2x2 grid open), and add a widget, ad the Life.Contacts small widget. On the widget is the options button. Use that.
