[Droid 2 General] tattedupboy:
So the time has come that I need to do an SBF on my phone. I've done it before (most recently back in Febuary when I had bricked my phone), but that was when my phone was running Froyo. My question is, can I use the same process I used to Sbf my phone when it was running froyo to one that is now running GB?
[Droid 2 General] local_crack_dealer:
There isn't a SBF for GB, you have to SBF back to Froyo, then root, then reflash GB leak....if wanted.
[Droid 2 General] tattedupboy:
So I went ahead and did an SBF on my phone back on Tuesday. Things seem to have gotten worse. I receive most of my text messages more than once (I received one yesterday 26 times), my phone is chronically low on memory (never more thamn 20% available) and it runs super slow much of the time. What gives? Oh, and I'm running Zombie Stomped 1.7 if that helps.
[Droid 2 General] jerseyh22accord:
sounds like after you sbf'ed you didn't go into the stock recovery and wipe data and cache.

I updated my SGS to GB DXJV9 and found that after 2 days use, I actually have to tap a little harder on the screen to register a tap. Does not seem to be a problem with the keyboard but the problem is apparent when tapping icons to launch an app. Anyone else experiencing this with GB?

I just flashed a deodexed rooted version of the newest OTA last night and now when I turn my phone off and try to boot into the boot loader, I can't. It just powers the phone on. Did I somehow lose root?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
If the rom has a fastboot option, disable it. Menu-Settings-Power, depending on the rom.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkeychef:
It may also be in menu>applications, but like you said it depends on the ROM.

Yes it works. The power off option is weird. Just use the restart option. Or pull battery and voila

[EVO 4G General] drew454u:
Ok I am full rooted thanks to un-revoked.

I have downloaded the new update on my phone but havent installed yet, Battery was to low so gave me a notification in status bar to update later.

I understand i have to flash to the Amon ra recovery.

all i want is the stock rom, with the ability to use wireless tether and adfree, so obviously i need superuser permission.

Will i have to flash to a stock rooted rom?? or will i just be able to install these and be good to go?? is there even a stock rooted rom out yet??

Thanks for any and help. love the site dont post much cause normally i can figure things out, but wanna double check on this one.

Make back up and perform full wipes.

You must install the rooted Rom for precautionary reasons.
[EVO 4G General] drew454u:
so should i even update my phone then?? or should i just flash right to one of these?? seems like it would be easier just flashing right too those since i currently have clockwork installed.
[EVO 4G General] novanosis85:
Flash the odexed or deodexed versions and enjoy.
[EVO 4G General] playya:
Simple answer is NO YOU SHOULD NOT DO THE OTA... The rom is out there already (rooted versions)
[EVO 4G General] drew454u:
Whats the difference in them?? and do i have to flash a kernel also?? not gonna lie i have never flashed a different rom before. never had a need too really.
[EVO 4G General] novanosis85:
No difference really. Just flash the odexed version and that is all. No kernel needed.

I'm not familiar with cwmod so I can't guide you through the flash but also you need to have an updated version.
[EVO 4G General] drew454u:
ok thank you sir, much appreciated.

All I did was wiped everything and flashed the rooted update Rom using amon recovery. Now I a running the same thing as th ota and I'm still rooted. That's the easiest and safest option u have.
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
I have been reading several forums, and it seems that quite a few people are in a hurry to unroot their phones in order to download the latest OTA update from HTC.

WHY WOULD YOU EVER WANT TO UNROOT JUST TO DOWNLOAD THE LATEST OTA ??

Why would you want to risk breaking your root, possibly permantly, just to install an update that is basically the same as the previous one and is going to bring some bugs with it? From what I am reading, the new update is not all that wonderful.

One of the purposes of any HTC OTA update is to break as many roots as possible and to patch the phones so that they cannot be rooted. And, if the bootloader is locked, which several people claim it is, your phone may never be rooted again, at least not perm rooted.

IF YOUR ROOT IS KILLED, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE FLASH YOUR FAVORITE LOOKING CUSTOM ROMS, YOUR CUSTOM ROM THAT MAKES YOUR PHONE RUN SO MUCH FASTER, THAT CUSTOM ROM THATS GIVING YOU THAT GREAT BATTERY LIFE,...

IF YOUR ROOT IS KILLED, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CONTROL YOUR PHONE'S CPU, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RESTORE THAT BACKUP, THAT POSSIBLY SAVED YOUR PHONE, YOU WILL NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THAT FREE WIFI TETHERING, YOU WILL NOT BE ALBE TO DELETE THOSE UNWANTED APPS THAT ARE WASTING STORAGE SPACE ON YOUR PHONE, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FREEZE ALL THOSE SERVICES THAT YOUR TASKMANAGER CANNOT TOUCH THAT ARE KILLING YOUR BATTERY,...

Sorry I wrote a book here, but it makes no sense to me. If you want to try Android 2.3, why not just download the rooted version and maintain your root along with its many advantages?
[EVO 4G General] playya:
I just answered a post in another thread about this .... people are out of their effin minds especially when the software is out there already and has been for a while... Hey there a million what do I do posts and people getting flamed and the sensitive ones going stop doing that... Hey you stupid enough to update your phone OTA f-it you deserve what you get. forum is here to educated and help and if you dont want to use that help then you get what you deserve... Dont mean to be a **** but I guess for some you will feel that I am oh well
[EVO 4G General] wgallt:
A lot of us unrooted prior to the update because we were expecting a hell of alot more than what we were given. I could have waited for one of the devs to give us a rooted version but it's like being given a present and told not to open it till tomorrow. Had I known the specifics of the update I definitely would have waited. All in all not a big deal though, they'll figure out how to root this soon until then I'll just piss and moan about this half ass update.
[EVO 4G General] rezistrat:
I didn't get a choice, my phone died after flashing the new radio. When i got my replaced it had the latest ota already installed. Also went from Hardware 003 to 004. Guess I now have to give up flashing cold turkey

[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Do we really need a thread to explain the obvious? People are just impatient and stupid.
[EVO 4G General] wgallt:
Yup but I felt the need to get let down a few hours sooner. But I will say I knew in advance that it would more than likely screw my chance to root for a while. I made my own bed no need for me to come on here and whine about it like I see a lot of others doing.
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
The purpose of this thread was to discourage the next person from making the same mistake that others made, because people right now are still desperate to get the update by any means necessary.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
When you do that, you run that chance of an exploit never being found. That may very well be the case if you have S-ON.

The dissapointment in the leaked OTA wasn't enough to dissuade people i guess.

If they come here for help then they already know better.

Impatience
[EVO 4G General] woonkie:
I unrooted because there was no reason for me to be rooted. The only benefit of rooting for me was to have the free wifi tethering.

When my wife did the latest OTA update she was getting 4g in places I didn't get it. Her phone was also downloading on 4g at 10 megs down using the speedtest.net app. With multiple roms I have never gotten above 2 megs down, when I unrooted and went stock I was getting faster and better 4g.

Every Rom I installed was buggy, So if I am going to deal with roms that don't work or take away features or burn your eyes in the dark I would rather just deal with the stock sprint phone. I am also fortunate enough to be able to afford the hotspot service from sprint so I would rather pay for reliable fast service.

These are the reasons I unrooted. I understand that everyone has their own reasons for what they do with their devices and I respect them please respect mine. I am just answering the question that was asked in this post.
[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
Well, people HAVE missed it, and yes, they SHOULD know better. However, some need more help than others.
[EVO 4G General] sand1303:
I was tempted but I knew someone that was stock and I let him go first. I also knew everyone would be posting here. I now run the rooted Rom put out the same day the ota was released. Thank god I held on to my senses and waited for it.
[EVO 4G General] vbetts:
I'm not unrooting anytime soon. Couple of reasons.

1.The big one is I'm not a huge fan of Sense.

2.All the bloatware that comes on the stock rom that slows it down, and takes up room.

3.For my battery!!!!

Respect due for your answer but just because your wifes phone had better speeds than yours did not mean that you will have the same as hers just because you unrooted. Also you could of put a completely stock rooted version on your phone and tried it out. I assume you did that prior to unrooting. I do respect your answer though.

Because my boot partition has bad nand block as well, and I can't flash the latest OTA. My wimax keys have been gone, and I have never gone to get it replaced.

How is that fraud?

Has anybody with this rom flashed had any troubles with the camera fc'ing when trying to take a picture? For the longest time now whenever i try to take a picture it would fc and tell me the process com.sec.android.app.camera has stopped unexpectedly. Could someone with a working camera send me their apk from the /system/app folder to test if that would fix my issue?
[Epic 4G General] southpark-droid:
go under the camera settings and under the wrench icon tab their is an option on page 2 i think to update camera firmware... select it... then select check firmware then select update... then run the samsung apps store app then it should say if their is an update to the camera. if shut down phone and turn back on and rerun the samsung app store...

i tried that already, downloaded the samsung app and re-ran it, says error service unavailable (error code 4002) when it searches for the firmwarer update edit: tried fixing permissions under cwm and would no-ciq play any role in not being able to get the update?
[Epic 4G General] southpark-droid:
i would go into clock works mod and then reset the phone and do under advanced i think and clear delvik cache. I would also not use a program like Titanium Backup as you could be restoreing files that are causing the issue. The only restore i do is with my backup and text messages only. I then let the market place update all programs then after that is done I then install from the market my programs... I also recommend that you delete everything on the sd card other then your music and dcmia folder (camera saved pics).... then reset the device.... and then after reflashing then rom then do the no icq then do the fm radio gtalk thing then turn it off and use odin to flash the modem...

i used the ee03 tar to flash the rom to my phone so everything was already done including the modem. i tried clearing the cache and fixing permissions with no luck. ill give resetting the phone a try and see how well that will work for me. also before doing that, do you think you could send me a copy of your camera apk from the system app folder to see if that would work for me?
