[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skateral271:
~NOOB ALERT~

My G2 is bricked, and I'd like to know if its possible to fix. I have an sdcard reader and a Mac computer.

My G2 can boot into HBoot. When I select recovery, it takes me to the latest clockworkmod. I've tried every single option IN cwm to try and fix it, but it won't work. The recovery still allows me tl flash roms... but no matter WHAT rom I try it just boot loops.

My info:

Vision PVT Ship S-ON

HBOOT-0.82.000

MICROP-0425

RADIO-26.02.01.15_M2

eMMC-boot

Sorry but I really need this fixed and ima noob to xda as well. My bad. Do you know what I can try?

Am guessing try to flash the new G2 2.3 update by football. You will lose being able to root though.

Also needs to moved to question section
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericc191:
Instead of freaking out, try to do some reading and gain a better understanding of what happened and what you can do to fix it. No one here is going to hold your hand. Sorry your phone got messed up, but it happens from time to time.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akafaze:
Search for a guide on how to root to S-OFF in HBoot. That's probably your only way of fixing your phone. You made the mistake trying to use root features while your phone is still S-ON. The reason why it boot loops when you're flashing roms is because you're not rooted, flashing roms is only for rooted phones with S-OFF.

1) Get your phone rooted with S-OFF by searching for a guide that roots the phone using HBoot. (Most likely you'll be using ADB on your Mac to root from HBoot. Look at the ADB for dummys guide stickied in the G2 Android Development section.)

2) After your phone shows S-OFF, flash a rom in recovery and reboot.

3) Your phone should work after that. If it doesn't, bring it to work for paper weight.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ionut.micu:
I think you can do this:

Download the rom from this thread, rename it to PC10IMG.zip and place it on the root of your SD card, reboot into bootloader, follow on screen instruction.

After this process is complete, you should boot into the latest leaked TMOUS rom.

Be aware that the rom above is not rooted, and I'm not sure if you can get s-off with the bootloader from that rom.

Or you can read the second sticky thread:

[REF] G2/Vision/DZ Links | Guides | Stickies | Recovery | Roms | Read before posting

You will find a lot of useful things there.

And I believe that your problem is already described and solved in the Q&A section.

Good luck!

[Surround General] phonejunkie30:
I am thinking of getting the surround how is it I really think Windows phone 7 will take off tired of android and ios does it have good gps apps like navigon or tom tom like ios and Android has
[Surround General] ycode90:
I have had buyers remorse every since I got mine. Zune media player is the only good thing about wp7.
[Surround General] macjr82:
It does have good navigation apps in bing maps and gmaps. It won't have turn-by-turn until the mango update hits. I've enjoyed WP7, and I also have a Samsung Captivate.

Here is my initial take on the device:

http://www.city-data.com/forum/cell...2-ios-android-windows-phone-7-comparison.html

And here is my CNET review:

http://reviews.cnet.com/smartphones...essageID=10102772&tag=contentMain;contentBody

The surround was not my first choice in Windows phone. My dream WP7 was the Dell Venue Pro. When I pulled the trigger on the Surround, it wa only b/c the DVP was not scheduled to come to AT&T anytime soon. I was actually about to get a Samsung FOcus, but the Surround was available for $1 so I got that instead. It is not a decision that I regretted. HTC has the best WP7 phones. Even now that I have a Dell Venue Pro, I stil miss the HTC exclusive apps. The only con I have for the surround is the screen. If you are used to AMOLED and Retina displays the surround screen will look faded. The difference is like watching an SD tv once you're used to HD. The screen quality wasn't worth the price difference for me, though.

[Surround General] phonejunkie30:
i did get the surround and like it and htc does make the best phones if you ask me i am not turned off by it not have amoled but it would be nice the camera is good and i like how smooth os is it definately has potential just needs more major apps i can't beleive my bank chase isn't even in the app store seeing that it is on all of the other platforms come on but i am sure it will come i do have a question is the dell better built than the surround or is the only thing it has going for it is the amoled screen what about size and thickness and speaker.
[Surround General] ycode90:
I'm new to Zune and I like it . The UI on wp7 is nice . I'm just put off by all the bugs and shortcomings . Ms should have waited to release it till it was at least as feature rich as the competition. I'll trade you a near perfect surround for the Inspire ;).
[Surround General] phonejunkie30:
my inspire is already in ebay for sale
[Surround General] jimski:
Dell: 4.8" x 2.5" x 0.60" - 6.8oz

Surround: 4.71" x 2.42" x 0.51" - 5.82oz

I have not handled the Dell but it looks like a very nice device. But looks are not everything. The device has been plagued with issues since launch associated with the memory card and countless firmware problems. Users are still waiting for Dell to issue a firmware update. While some users have stated their DVP works fine, I wouldn't be willing to take the risk. Don't know about the speaker, but how can you compare anything to the Surround speaker.

[Verizon Droid Charge] specter491:
Hello all,

So I'm getting my Charge in a few days, moving from a rooted evo, so I'm new to the Samsung scene. I've searched these forums but still have a few questions about the current state of things concerning rooting the Charge:

1. Does CWM work fully yet?

2. Is ED01 currently the only version that can be rooted?

3. What is ODIN/HEIMDALL and what is it used for?

4. Is simply rooting the phone enough to flash roms, kernels, etc? I know with HTC phones you have to unlock some other stuff first.
[Verizon Droid Charge] hoppermi:
1. It works except for nandroid restore, this is being looked at.

2. ED1 and ED2 have both been rooted.

3. odin is a samsung utility for flashing, heimdall is an open source alternative that works for mac/linux users also

4. no unlock necessary, samsung hasn't locked bootloader
[Verizon Droid Charge] qubanaso:
so odin has to be used for everything when flashing something like kernels roms etc?
[Verizon Droid Charge] GuestK00231:
From my understanding no, but like you I come from HTC phones...so this is semi foreign. At the same time this allows me to see if what I was reading i understood correctly and begin to grasp these concepts...

The custom CWM that is flashed with jt's kernel, you can flash within there.

how I read it is, ODIN is what RUU is to HTC...

imnuts talks about it here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1082288
[Verizon Droid Charge] Z51:
Odin is used to unbrick your phone incase you mess it up somehow. Unfortunately we don't have a full odin restore yet so for now try not to brick your phone. Cuz if u do you'll be stuck whistling for a while lol

Except Samsung "sense" is Touchwiz. :D
[Verizon Droid Charge] yyhd:
Correct. 10char
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
The nice thing is that it is easy to create your own Odin packages, so things can be created in either CWM or Odin flashable packages. CWM is a work in progress, but is working well enough right now for most purposes (flashing stuff).

Hi

I'm getting a bit confused with the storage location on the Transformer.

For example for videos, etc, it seems to want to default store to my micro-sd card.

Is there any way I can avoid this, basically I want things stored on the transformer itself.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xformulax:
this is a bit confusing on their part, but:

/sdcard = internal 16gb memory

/Removable/MicroSD = your uSD card
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] browngeek:
Ah, got you now. So /sdcard is actually internal storage and /MicroSD is the actual microsd.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] dreadnought001:
Much as I love the stock browser on Honeycomb (especially the bookmark sync), it has become incredibly laggy in places, especially entering into text fields on forums etc. I tried most of the other browsers on the market, and at the moment the new Dolphin HD beta is working the best for me. You can find it here:

http://home.dolphin-browser.com/tunny/Download.htm

Pages load quickly, scrolling is smoother, text entry less painful. What browsers are other people out there using? Is stock working OK for you or are you using another one? Would love to find the best browser for android tablets.

I had been using Dolphin HD browser, as the stock browser is a bit flakey with mobile view even using the about:debug.

I've since switched to Firefox 4 with the phony add on. Works great. Only drawback on that one is Flash isn't working yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] flipao:
It's not the browser that's causing the input lag, it's the ASUS keyboard. Swap it for the stock Android one and you'll see the difference straight away.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
incorrect.. laggy whatever keyboard used.. I've tried it with Asus, stock android, Flext9 by nuance and Thumb Keyboard.. all laggy.. viewing and posting using Firefox with the same keyboards is much better
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] stuntdouble:
This was posted in another thread but I'll put it here too. If you want to stop the lag for the XDA forums then change the style option bottom left of the page to 'classic' instead of 'XDA 2010'. Seems to run fine in any browser then. :)

I've gone back to the HC keyboard with the stock browser now after trying out Dolphin HD. It's got its faults but works well most the time.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] mamoulian666:
I'm using firefox because it has a sessionsaver... all of them crash occasionally.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] combat goofwing:
Sure I read some where if you use dolphin and contact the developer they will send you the apk file for the tablet version of dolphin HD

Yeah that was me, but it doesn't work anyway; As soon as you try to edit the bookmarks it crashes :(

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] steftymo:
I'm using the Dolphin HD browser and after a few niggles re. bookmarks I am now really enjoying using it. No crashes or lags. Really like using the different gestures which can be modified to whatever you want. e.g. draw a letter "B" (roughly) to get bookmarks bar. Plus a lot of different add-ons and themes. Deffo my no. 1 browser at moment.

can you set the stock browser to desktop view?

Yes. The options are Tablet, Desktop or Mobile.

[Acer Iconia A500] phillymatt:
Hi all... Purchased my Iconia about a week ago and am generally pleased with it. I have been having an issue, and after scouring the interwebs I haven't been able to find a solution.

My sister also has the Iconia, and yesterday we attempted to initiate video chat sessions with both Gtalk and Fring. Video works fine on both programs and on both tablets, but on her Iconia, strange audio distortions are coming through. Sometimes we can hear what sounds like music, which would lead me to believe that it may be some kind of interference.

We've tried chatting when I'm at home and she's at her place and both on her network. Also we have both tried starting the sessions . Always the sounds are on her tablet. We haven't tried it yet where we are on a completely different network(s).

What can we do to troubleshoot the problem? We both purchased from BB and still have some time to exchange if it is a hardware issue, but I would like to make sure that it isn't some kind of interference or software issue first.

BTW we both live in Philadelphia... I live blocks away from a TV station which furthers my suspicion that it may be interference. Thanks for the help ;);)
[Acer Iconia A500] Maddmatt:
It's not interference, it's the Iconia :(
