You needed to use VRZ_MB810_2.3.34_1FF_01.zip. you can try that, if it doesn't work you might have completely bricked it.
[Droid X General] wasatchbl1:
Same thing happened to me this morning, but different ERR numbers. Verizon & Motorola were no help. Took it to the Verizon store, they forced Froyo 2.2 back on the phone. Its working now, but keeps trying to update. I am waiting until I get home to back up everything, then I will wipe the phone and let it update on its own. Seems to be a bootloader issue with either Bootstrap or rooting.
[Droid X General] ashish8:
If I'm on GB my phone ALWAYS gives me a "code corrupt" after running the 2.3.340 full SBF. A system SBF afterwards always fixes the issue. Weirdly, I can't just do the system SBF. Its like I have to brick the phone with the full SBF and then repair it with the system SBF.

I'm running VRZ_MB810_2.3.34_1FF_01.sbf now. I'll post back with my results.

Thanks everyone for the input so far.
[Droid X General] pvliii:
After flashing with VRZ_MB810_2.3.34_1FF_01.sbf it looks like we're back in business. Everything looks the way it was before I started all this.

I'll try updating to GB now and report back.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] tenbeau:
I have a nagging question about switching from ext3 to ext4 kernels. I flashed a rom (1.20) and than flashed the ext3 kernel and than the ext4 kernel. I want to flash and update to the rom which is ext3 only. Do I just flash a ext3 kernel on my present rom and then flash the updated rom or can I just flash the rom over the present rom which has ext4. I kind of wish I had never flashed ext4 at this point.:confused: Any and all help is greatly appreciated.:confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
all of the roms out have ext3 so u could wipe cache and then wipe dalvik then flash the rom over it the ext4 kernel, or the ext3, like say faux updated his rom u could flash that over it and u would be fine then u would have his ext 3 kernel installed, u do know that his roms come preinstalled with the ext3 kernel rite??? its just up in the op for people if they want to use it for cyanogen mod, so when u flash his rom it will have his latest ext3 kernel already installed, and if u want the ext 4 kernel u would have to install that over it:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
better yet dude do u have a nandroid of an ext3 rom? restore back to that and ull be good, for future reference always well i always make a backup of the rom i like with the ext 3 kernel, i get the rom how i want it then back it up....then if i want to slap a ext4 kernel on i do then when i dont want it or have an updated version of the rom (like fauxs) ill just restore my ext3 nandroid and update the rom then make another backup of it then slap the ext4 kernel back on if i want it. basically i never backup a ext4 kernel on my rom......the only thing i backup is ext3, and when u install the updated rom over ur previous rom like lets say faux updated his rom just wipe cache and dalvik and install rom all ur apps, and everything will still be there

Sweet watch to go with an awesome phone. its not cheap, $350 or so USD.

But there were some interesting features though :)

Am I the only one who noticed this isn't a phone at all? Its a bluetooth headset and bluetooth data (bluetooth tethering) device, and yes I realize that means it does have many cool features regardless, but still calling it a phone isn't technically accurate. You still need a phone.

I think this would have been very cool if it had a sim card slot, so I could theoretically pop my sim in the watch, then tether via bt or wifi my phone to it for the occasional use on the phone, using the watch as my primary phone while at work (setting up A/V equipment its easier to keep my nice clean GSII in my pocket away from dirty hands and heavy gear). Also, even with its small size, it would have been nice to have 320x240 as the resolution as that would have made it compatible with many android apps as they wouldn't know the difference between the watch and say an HTC hero with the same resolution. Hopefully version 2.0 will have a few of my dream features, but for now just an interesting thing to see...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Pfeffernuss:
A Hero has a 320x480 screen, but that's just nitpicking, agree with everything you said ;)

Has anyone ever used their vibrant with the radio completely off? I've been offered a flawless vibrant that has a faulty radio (disconnects/reconnects erratically) for just $125 :D I've been needing a new media player so I thought this would fit the bill.

How many hours of music playback do you think I could get if I had the radio completely turned off?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sammy_user:
Today I noticed that my phone spent 12% of battery overnight (in airplane mode), and its the first time it happens... I saw also that some of my applications are forgetting their settings, for example Noom tells me to configure my workout plan again and again...

I decided to root my SGS, but I can't enter download mode :confused::confused: :mad::mad::mad::mad: I press the magic keys and the phone starts normally. Now I have to buy a JIG at ebay :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Next, 3G Watchdog somehow lost the stored usage info and now I can't see if I overuse my data plan :mad::mad::mad:

And to finish I played a game and it froze I had to reboot the phone :mad::mad:

So i'm going to bed but today has been a bad samsung galaxy day for me :mad::mad::mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lockzackary:
i assume its most probably caused by an installed app that continuously seeks to connect to the net (but i can't confirm this unless you tell me that you install non-market apps)

further, can you at least give more of your phone's details like

the ROM you are using, or just simply pasting here what dialing *#1234# gives you.

the battery drain has been an issue bothering some people who upgraded to a buggy gingerbread version, but if you are on froyo that is unlikely the cause (we still need to confirm though)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weems84:
after getting the OTA 3.1 update the weather widget will not refresh to the correct location. GPS and maps show me in the correct place but the widget will not refresh to my current location. It is stuck on the previous city I was in.

Anyone else having this problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
It only updates every few hours by default. You can change this by clicking on the widget and changing the refresh interval.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weems84:
I was doing a manual refresh. After doing it about 10 times it finally refreshed. Not sure what the problem was.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyxeu:
Hi,

SIM Unlocking is handled in Odia's SIM Unlock thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1064978

The easiest way is to use Chainfire's "Galaxy S2 SIM Unlock" app.

You can use the following code to check if your device is locked:

*#7465625#

In my case it had only the first "network" lock.

Unfortunately the "Unlock" code provided by the app did not work and the message was "unsuccessful".

Thus I have put the "Unfreeze" code and the message was "unsuccessful" too.

Finally I have put the "Unlock" code again and now the message was "successful".

It looks like some carriers "freeze" their device beforehand, so that "Unfreeze" and "Unlock" codes are necessary.

Happy unlocking.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerig:
if you can get the unlock and unfreeze codes THIS WORKS A TREAT

THANKS Im now free of O2
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhruvaz:
what the heck this method worked for me.. and its O2 i mean it was locked to O2 and i brought it in sweden it gave me unlock code and unfreeze code i tried unlock code like twice without avail and after i used unfreeze code (unsuccessful) i tried unlock code again (unsuccessful) but its unlocked.. now i am confused :D why did it said unsuccessful but its unlocked .. well why should i whine it worked :D so you're looking at a happy dude :D cheers

p.s You got thanks from me buddy d.s
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] EL TEJANO:
Besides the obvious access to particular Honeycomb apps, what other benefits does Honeycomb offer on our G-Tabs?

I ask because it seems like some people prefer Honeycombs GUI but I also noticed that one is able to theme their tablets to look like Honeycomb while staying on a non-Honeycomb based ROM.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] spamhead:
What tipped it for me to go ahead and install the Bottle of Smoke alpha:

- improved widgets, including scrollable Gmail previewer

- Gmail app is fantastic

- access to 3.0-only tablet-optimized apps (like Touchdown for my Exchange email)

- laying out the homescreens is easier since you can preview the widgets

Just a couple of things I've discovered (I just applied this ROM yesterday...):

- improved Market interface

- HC themes approach but do not fully capture the "holographic" feel of HC

-the notification system is different enough that I'm not sure whether I like it better or not.

I'm not mentioning the particular quirks of the BoS alpha - there are threads here and elsewhere that chronicle those. They should definitely be part of your decision, as it takes a good measure of patience to deal with.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Sidriel:
I went to the Century Eyes Rom by roebeet, and I'm loving it. It gives me the tablet feel with no bugs. I do miss the market and Youtube apps from honeycomb though.

(Century Eyes = Notion Ink Adam's EdenUI)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Dueces99:
Although being just an alpha and lacking flash support, I don't see myself moving away from BOS anytime soon. Granted quite few areas still have bugs to be worked out, visual asthetics alone have me hooked on roebeets rom. Not to mention it surprisingly runs very well vs. coming from vegan rc1. I have live wallpaper going, of course oc-ed, and I can still play game any for the most part with little to no lag. The menu/context menu layout for adding/changing wallpaper, active/recent apps menu, default keyboard, and default browser ease of use are my main reasons for sticking with it. If you want a rom with minute issues, this one is obviosly not for you. But if you can sacrifice a random reboot every other day and don't watch youtube all the time like me, BOS is a keeper and will only get better.

Edit: I should also note that my gtab is mostly for recreational use. A friend of a friend bought it bout a month ago now, tried doing something without proper knowledge, soft-bricked it, gave it to my friend who in turn gave it to me while the original owner bought an Ipad a week later. So I dont find it appropriate to use the term 'daily driver' since I see it as a very fun toy currently so my opinion on ROMs should include this.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Sidriel:
In all honesty, I would have been mad if I hadn't found such a good modding community for this device. The stock is terrible.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Whodas:
So i have the BoS alpha installed , it runs very smooth - the only real FC come from open-gl not being available yet, well that and the apps that arent compatible with the nvidia kernel in general... i hope this helps a bit, if not please let me know exactly what apps your planning on using, and ill test them and post a video on youtube for you to see how well they run. my channel on youtube is ( youtube.com/itsnothowyoudie ) the latest video shows the homescreen and a couple apps including the scrolling gmail, which btw is great.

ps. one thing that has annoyed me, not being able to resize the widgets (;
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] SirhanSirhan:
I am also running Century Eyes. It offers the tablet feel, with improved resolution over all other Froyo ROMs. The resolution and the scrollable widgets are the best of Honeycomb, but I need Hardware Acceleration for flash. I use the streaming TV and movie apps, and it is required that you have flash enabled.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] tsg2513:
I am running the Evervol GB ROM with the Honeycomb 3D-SBicons theme and it looks so much like HC that you wouldn't believe it. Especially when using Launcher Pro with scrollable widgets. Amazing! Plus, almost everything works (flash, camera, both sd cards, usb to pc, etc.).
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] the3dman:
I also like honeycombs browser which syncs my bookmarks with the chrome browser. Been waiting for android to do this, I have tons of bookmarks on my computer so this helps a lot. The new 4.1 version of bottle of smoke is very smooth and works very well for me.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] doug3673:
I think I'll wait until one of the Honeycomb ROMs hits final release. I need it to be able to do everything I can currently do in froyo before switching (open GL, flash, video playback, etc...)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Calvinx1:
Good ROM

Refering to battery, the best rom i think, i dont like the hidding status bar and i couldnt use the long search whit other programs, I like this rom so much i hope it could be fixed!!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] mike_ekim:
To answer the OPs post: Froyo gave genuine performance improvements and features i.e. batterly life, reduced sluggishness, Flash (which had limited support on earlier Android IIRC), but AFAIK Honeycomb gives mostly UI improvements -scrollable widgets, etc. However, some of those 'UI improvements' are also significant improvements in how the tablet is used as well as how it looks (i.e. UI = user INTERFACE and not just how the home screen looks).

See here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history

Honeycomb on gTab has some tradeoffs, but if you want to keep all the Froyo functionality you can try different launchers on any ROM, although I'm sure Froyo launchers have limitations when compared to the Honeycomb launchers. I am currently using VTL launcher on Vegan 5.1.1 (Froyo), I would not call it a 'Honeycomb Replacement' but the ROM (Vegan 5.1.1) is way better than the stock ROM and the launcher (VTL) is way better than the stock launcher, and everything that I need still works, including camera, keyboard, video, and PvZ.

For ideas on setting up your launcher/home screen see here:

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] juanaraya92679:
Recommend Honeycomb FlashBack or GtabComb,

You basically won't have camera functionality and some Flash won't work in browser. Most Games will work, the cool 3d ones at least. :)

Just give it a try, its as easy double clicking the nvflash exe :)
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] spike378:
I switched back from GTABcomb to cm7 because there is one particular app didnt support. The back support is not that good. On the good side, you have everything mention here by other members but flash is only playable through opera browser and no HW acc. The sound is louder too on HC and screen more responsive.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] qkster:
I'm running FB 5.5. Visually, it is more satisfying than GB or Froyo.

Gmail widget and app handles email better.

Stock Calendar app and calender widget is better as well.

YouTube and Market HC is visually better as well.

Flash works in browser opera and stock.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] grayfoxx:
Not to mention the Netflix 1.3 apk works perfectly now, all youtube vids play in full screen, No sleep of death, etc. TV.com acts weird and runs small like it's on a phone but I may play around with different versions. At this point the only thing I'm really missing is the camera. To be honest I think I only want it because I can't have it. I'd probably go 6 months without using it if it worked. I did notice that FB 5.5 runs a bit slower than GTABComb 3.2. I got 3345 quad score on GTABComb with the built in OC script where I get about 2450 with SetCPU at 1400mhz on FB 5.5. Overall I feel like both of these HC roms have evolved to a point where the leary should jump in and give them a shot. You won't be missing much and what you gain is seeing your tablet run visually the way it was meant to.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] dman918:
Currently running GTabComb 3.2 and it's pretty good. Stable, quick. Been considering Illuminate as well. I will say HC is such a slicker interface over Froyo or GB. I definitely would like to stick with HC now that I've played with it.
[G Tablet General] raphenucleus:
Just saw this over at Engadget. The Adam UI update isn't all that big news, at least for those of us who only have gtabs and aren't running an Adam port, but they mention that Notion Ink is working on a build of Honeycomb, which I assume could be easily ported over to the gtab. In one of the source links to the Engadget post, they mention that the Honeycomb build should be out on the "27th of June with acceleration and more!"

I'm not sure whether they actually got the honeycomb source code from google or whether they're using the Adam honeycomb mod that roebeet used as a base for Bottle of Smoke, since they say this in an earlier post:

"While Google gets to choose who they support officially, there is little we can do. But when we get friends like Andy, Stephen, and rest (I think like you I also know them with their nicks: Reobeet, Rothnic, Dougie187, IntuitiveNipple, TwoSpirits, MyGuy, AlbertWertz (same as his name), josh4trunks, jerryaycock, gamepro, newbe5, RaYmAn, red_herringx, Covrus and blazingwolf) we can do much more than the Bilderberg Group!"

But I'm thinking if they're releasing an official version of Honeycomb, they must have gotten permission and the source code from google.
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
Very good news.

Edit.

I just saw the video in the blog you linked to. My gtab is 100 times more responsive than that. Using ginger OC to 1.2ghz.
[G Tablet General] y2k-inc:
Great new and i quote"
[G Tablet General] raphenucleus:
Wow, yeah. Mine too and I don't even overclock. I just watched that video and it appears they still have quite a few bugs to workout. Not only was it not very responsive, it also crashed several times in the short video. And the guy kept saying how it was more stable than the previous version. However, as y2k-inc pointed out above, they did mention that they've been focusing on "Honeycomb rather than fixing everything on 2.3", so I'm still optimistic that we'll get something good out of this. Even if their release turns out to be crap, maybe roebeet and the Adam devs working on the HC port can salvage something from it to fix the few remaining things that don't work in their ROMs (flash, camera, etc.).
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
Our custom roms for the gtab appear to be 10 times more stable and workable than the adam. And we're suppose to be the cheap low end LOL!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0920:
Hi there, I think I might try out these recommended video players. But before I do, I wondered if anyone could let me know why the videos I'm copying across to the phone (divx AVI episodes of TV shows downloaded via BitTorrent) don't stretch to the full size of the screen?

I have tried RockPlayer and yxplayer and what appears to be the standard 'video player'. yxplayer doesn't appear to do anything (or can't play divx AVI files), the other two play it in the centre of the screen with heaps of space around the sides.

When I play the same files on my TV through my PVR, they stretch to fit my TV screen dimensions and look really sharp. Was hoping the same would occur on the phone, so I would have something to watch on tomorrow's interstate flight.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
