How can I do this, I know that if the Samsung logo does not appear (like my case), then this method will not work. What do you think?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RorixRebel:
are you able to see the following image on your phone when you start it up?

if you see this then it can be saved, if its just a black screen you are kind of screwed
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Th30n34nd0nl7:
Does the phone show any reaction? Does the acreen show anything? Any Sound? If it's just a black stone and doesnt react at all, send it to Samsung and as reason for the phone to be bricked, just say Kies f***ed it up while you tried to sync contacts or so. I did that one week ago and as you can see it's working again.

Well if it shows reaction try building your own jig as mentioned in the thread above or buy one from ebay to boot your phone into download mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwehbe:
Phone make no action!!! like if there is no battery in the phone. only black screen
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwehbe:
ONLY black screen. The phone is out of warranty, will this cost a lot? they will fix it by hardware (change a part) or by software?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ali1276:
Try this:

1. Take everything out of the phone (sim, micro sd, battery)

2. Press volume up+home+power

3. Put the battery back in while still having the three buttons pressed.

4. Hopefully you are in download mode.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lycan_codex:
you can buy the jig from ebay. search for it.

if its gets the phone into download mode, u know what to do then...else take it to some unofficial service centre..i mean ordinary cell phone repairing shop and see if they can fix it.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] michie:
It's out already from 4th June.

The update was meant for 6th June, but HTC has released it early for users.

(Read UPDATE, not kernel source code)

Maybe if enough people put a request comment on their desicion they will release the 2.6.35 kernel source code for the Desire. (Let's hope so)

[EVO 4G General] poppajules:
My buddy flashed the new OTA and we are trying to establish root.

Me, personally, I run a droid x rooted, so its similar, but I can use MotoHelper to flash whatever I need to establish root. Is there similar programs and files to flash back to a previous version of software for the Evo? Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] waterbound:
Its not possible to root the new OTA yet. Give it some time and for future reference..ALWAYS wait until the OTA is rooted before you flash new updates..

Good luck!
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
Would it have killed you to spend maybe 20 seconds to see if there was already threads about this? Right now, I count 2 threads on the FIRST PAGE about this, not to mention at LEAST 25 other threads that have been made in the last week. It literally would have taken you 10-15 seconds to find your answer, but since you can't do that, I'll answer for you: YOU CANNOT ROOT THE OTA YET. When a method is available, you can find out here.
[EVO 4G General] plainjane:
If your friend is s-off, you can flash recovery and then flash a rooted rom.

[EVO 4G General] twin001:
I love how it's always "a friend" that does the screwing up.
[EVO 4G General] poppajules:
OK, so its not my phone. Like I said, I have a droid x that is rooted. I have four other phones sitting at the house, all rooted. I know what I'm talking about, and i didn't ask if it can be rooted, I asked if you can flash back. Thanks for not reading. I asked specifically if there were any programs to flash an older version of the OS to gain root. Again, thanks for not reading. Motorola as Moto Helper, and I can flash whatever version of android I want. Whenever I want. Without root. I don't know anything about you or your knowledge, so don't question mine. I would like help, not flame. I tried to talk my buddy into rooting his evo when he first got it, and now he finally decided to follow my suggestion, but the OTA came out for him over the weekend. I don't sit around and read about phones that aren't mine, but I am trying to help out a friend to remove bloat. Now all I ask is to get help from the forum with my SPECIFIC question, not rooting the OTA. READ FIRST BEFORE FLAME.
[EVO 4G General] poppajules:
He wasn't s-off before, I tried verifying the versions with unrevoked, and they don't have it verified or supported yet. Thanks for the option, though.
[EVO 4G General] plainjane:
I didn't flame, but offered the only currently known solution to gaining root with the new OTA. Since the hboot was updated with the new OTA, and it's not downgradeable, the phone cannot be downgraded to an earlier version. There are RUUs available to put the phone back to stock or update to a newer version, but if you attempt to run it, it will give you a "main version is newer" error and will not complete due to the hboot not being able to downgrade.

EDIT: Just saw your response, oops.
[EVO 4G General] poppajules:
no you're good, I read before you edited too. Thanks, that makes sense. Like I said, the Droid can be downgraded whenever I want, even with the locked bootloader. Thanks for your input, and this is what I figured happened with the new OTA.
[EVO 4G General] littlebo:
If he was on rooted 2.2 with s-off and updated with ota 2.3 then he must be still s-off. All you need is to flash amon ra recovery and then flash superuser and youll have stock 2.3 with root. Ive done this on 5 phones already )
[EVO 4G General] ewynn9:
I was thinking about this while reading all these threads.

If a phone came with 2.2 from the factory and was then upgraded to 2.3, theoretically shouldn't you be able to factory reset the phone back to 2.2?
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
No. Once you upgrade, that replaces 2.2 with 2.3. Therefore, a factory reset would just reset your 2.3. To downgrade, you need root access to flash an older rom.
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
Yes u can go back to 2.2 but the new locked bootloader will remain therefore no root even if you flash back.

Hi there!

I've tried to flash WP7 to my HTC HD2 by using the correct method which includes Hard SPL 2.08, Radio 2.15.50 and Magldr 1.13. It all goes well until I have succesfully flashed WP7 (according to MAGDLR) and my phone reboots itself. After the reboot it starts up in MAGDLR with the text that it will load WPH and it does so, but after that, I get a black screen with HTC in the middle. After this state, is doesn't do anything. It should be starting up WP7, but it doesn't. I've read some articles about using Task29. I used Task29 and installed MAGDLR and WP7 again but it has the same problem. Just a minute ago I read that it might be my SD-card (that WP7 won't accept it).

What do I have to do?

Thanks in advance!

i want to know... is it better to turn off wifi when screen turns off or 3g consumes more battery than wifi.

i think 3g consumes more battery than wifi, i don't know why every one recommend to turn off wifi when screen turns off.

Additionally, the process of switching on/off wifi/3g will consume more battery...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] azzledazzle:
Turn all data connections OFF when not using them.... this will save battery.

you can use wifi sleep policy, but if you are on GB you may experience Android OS drain...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] asder00:
turn off all data and set wifi sleep policy to never
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
WIFI OFF when not using - most of its idle state consumes up to 10x juice as data connection at idle (15-50 mA / 5 min)

DATA CONNECTION can be

ON

<- at conected but idle state it is not using more juice then if that would be off (5 mA / 5 min)

as well as BT and GPS can be

ON

all the time

ofc itt will not be so low if youll have sync every minute or some live widgets

[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
there is no need for any juice or battery defenders

any task/proces killers/managers or any paid or free apps

that are said to make your battery life better longer better whatever

basicly stay away for wifi and remember when you play games, use gps or simply use the phone battery will go down.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] theduckking:
How did you gather this data?:D

[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
battery monitor widget gives you such data and many cfg options

that is data given by diff phone codes gathered in one place, presented in configurable graphs and more...

damn i sound like commercial =)

this 5mA in idle is due 5 background apps (all sort of monitors i run)

think with a clean system it could be 1-2mA -that means-> basicly no % loss when you are sleeping and phone is not used

now i have few % loss by night but i find that more then ok

i leave always wifi off do not make sense to keep it on since it will be scanning the hole time for new network (which mean more battery wasted) .

Also when i leave my wifi on sometime the phone connect to some near network , which require some http identification , so the phone will be connected to wifi network but without internet , in this case email sync and other auto update stuff will not work until i get away:D .

SO here when needed and there is a wifi network available i just switch it on .

I had been using Swype since last fall on a Nexus 1 and loved it... thought it would be a great improvement for the Xoom, but I really dont find it helpful... doesnt seem as slick as the smartphone version. If trying to type like a real keyboard it tries to connect the dots, and does so unsuccessfully. Even when its shrunken down to the smaller GUI its still not great as a 'swype' keyboard. The auto suggest is consistently wrong and the keyboard seems to struggle with using the .com button.

I went back to stock keyboard...which works well as a qwerty keyboard.

You are asking for what currently doesn't exist.

The closest to your specification is CM7.03-stable. All the other Gingerbread ROMs are based completely or partially on the CyanogenMod source tree.

What speed are you subscribed to. I don't know much about fios except we don't have it here. If its anything like charter and Comcast do though its probably a speed boost at the beginning of your download. It it is then a speed test that runs past the boost would show it slow back down some.

Mine is supposed to be 20 down
[Off-topic] Printerscape:
Made me laugh.

40down, 30up. When I'm downloading something big off direct connects, it caps out around 5-6MB/s and stays like that until completed download, which is around 40Mb/s, so I do get the full speed, but for speed tests, it jumps like that...
[Off-topic] billdozer357:
One possibility is that Verizon temporarily allocates more bandwidth to an individual user when the system is operating well below capacity (perhaps during off-peak hours), kinda like Comcast's Powerboost stuff that's advertised all the time. You could try testing during peak times and see what happens.

[Nexus S Android Development] liorry:
Hello everyone,

I just received my Asus Transformer (WiFi Only) and wanted to connect it to my Nexus S portable hotspot.

The Transformer found the hotspot network and even connected to it but I wasn't able to open web pages or even sync my google account.

I tested this on 2 Transformer units, Galaxy S II phone and a Nexus One (with CM7 which also can't generate a working hotspot network).

After several tests I've discovered every ROM that has Ad-Hoc support behaves the same - generate hotspot network that you can connect to but can't actually use. Also tested all WiFi tether apps on Market - all beacon ad-hoc networks, which Stock Android 3.1 can't find&connect to.

I tested all Ad Hoc supported ROMs: CM7 latest nightly, CM7.0.3 stable, MIUI latest, Oxygen and SupeAosp8.6. Finally flashed a stock 2.3.4 ROM and the hotspot feature worked perfectly. Also tested it on both Nexus S radios (KB3 and KD1).

Would love if someone can locate and fix this bug...

Probably something in the wpa_supplicant file or with DNS resolving.

Thank you!

EDIT: A solution for my specific issue - Will allow Ad Hoc support on the Transformer.
