I Just Bought My Charge And Want To Root it Right Away.

Firmware: 2.2.1

Baseband Version:i510.06 V.EE4 SCH-I510.EE1

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9

Everyone Is Talking About ED1 + ED2 But My Phone Has Neither It Has EE4 Or EE1. I Rooted My Samsung Captivate With Zero Effort But This Is Getting Confusing. Also Ive Never Used Odin Before And Do NOT Know How!

All Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated.

P.S. When The Heck Are We Getting A 2.3 Gingerbread OTA Update?
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
no your good...the process for rooting the phone is by flashing CWM/voodoo thru Odin and then a Kernel...after that you can flash a rom if you want. Some roms have a form of CWM/voodoo built in while others dont. I will attach links for the methods below for the ones with it built in

USB Problem

When i Turn My Phone Off And Hold Down The Volume Button As Explained To Me The Something Should Show Up In Odin. My Computers USB Ports Seem To Be Blocking It Somehow Because It Says Drivers Not Installed And USB Malfunction Please Install Drivers. The DRIVERS ARE ALREADY INSTALLED! Whats Going On. I Feel Like After Every Step The Hill Keeps Getting Steeper!
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
turn off any anti virus and firewall programs and try using another usb port
[Verizon Droid Charge] nikolas_pereira:
Tried It

I tried all four USB ports on my laptop and shut off all running processes in the background. This phone just refuses to be rooted!
[Verizon Droid Charge] chiahead52:
I had to use a different PC when I did mine because the USB just wasnt working right..Im no expert though just trying to assist..is it just not installing the phone drivers?
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
1) Make sure all anti-virus/firewall programs are disabled

2) Make sure the correct drivers are installed

3) Make sure you aren't using an extension cable

4) If you are on a desktop use the back USB ports, if you are on a laptop make sure it is plugged in to its' charger

5) If nothing works you can head to the library or a friends house with a flash drive and see if these steps work on their computer

hope you get your Charge rooted :]

Can the LG Optimus One P500 be reverse tethered i.e. when the mobile is connected to a PC with the cable then the phone can access the internet via the PC.

My HTC Incredible S used to do this and I did search a bit before posting this but I couldn't find a way to make my LG Optimus One P500 do it. Any suggestions?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
just buy a wifi router and u can access it anywhere in ur house
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
Yaa do that....

Beacuse this thing was already discussed here on xda at the same section. Search a bit harder u will find the thread in graveyard.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deadcode00:
search mycilla blog in google and u'll have ur answer.. nd try reverse tethering in ubuntu its easier.. i have done it very easily... :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] John Anderton:
Thanks for that reply. I do have a wifi router already :)

Reverse tethering will allow me to use internet available on any machine even while I'm in transit. Think laptop+data card :)

Hence the query :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Used to use this some time back when I was on Windows.

Also, cool sig :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crankyboy:
I use this www.mhotspot.com
[Optimus One, P500, V General] John Anderton:
That works if your laptop has WiFi. Sometimes I have an old laptop with me which doesn't have WiFi or I'm visiting a friend who doesn't have WiFi. Reverse tethering hack would really help out.

Couldn't find a link for reverse tethering. Any suggestions? :(

Thanks. Spent all morning setting it up :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kpbotbot:
Maybe this? --> http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html

Not sure. Haven't tried. Anyway, what error/thingy do you get?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crankyboy:
It just need a computer with a internet connection..

and Connectify doesn't work for me or some other people..

Cause android doesn't support ad-hoc ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] John Anderton:
mate, the problem is Step 2.. does the P500 have a "tethering" option? :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
Ofciurse we have usb tethering. Settings > wireless & network > portable hotspot > usb tethering

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xasiankidx:
well yesterday i did a hard reset on my phone, basically erased all the apps on it. today i decided to go back to stock firmware. i was currently running some froyo mod called JC16 or something like that. (sorry) So idk what happened, i think i pulled out my phone a little to early from Odin3. and it basically froze. now whenever i turn on my phone it goes onto the at&t WORLD PHONE splash screen, and keeps blinking and doesnt go past that. I tried going into download mode by using all button ways, but all it does is go to the battery sign, and a rotating symbol followed by the battery (in grey color). I let it sit and wall-charge for about 5 hours, and still nothing. I keep trying to go into download mode but it wont work. I really need help, tomorrow i have a meeting, and i need this phone. please help, im so sorry if this is the wrong section, but i need help immediately. im a complete noob at this stuff, so please help out, and i cant get past the at&t screen no matter what, please help me out please!

BTW

i used this TUTorial

i have a SAMSUNG CAPTIVATE GALAXY S. from AT&T. i live in the US.

You are not bricked. Since it seems you can't use key combos, you have to force download mode either through a jig or adb

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xasiankidx:
i know what a jig is, but can you explain what ADB is
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leezrd:
Google adb and download it. It is where it creates a virtual shell that makes your phone do stuff (laymens term). Then you type in command prompt. Adb then su then reboot download (after each step hhit enter)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Adb won't work unless the phone can boot

Get yourself a jig.

lmao.

i locked my phone at about 1pm.

looked for solutions for an hour, = 2pm

let it charge for 5 hours = 7pm

look around for more solutions for about 5 more hours..

then i came here and asked for help..-__-

i tried half the stuff that i discovered.

i invested about half my saturday trying to fix my phone. dont come and say that i just came up here and asked a question.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] antfitts:
Hey guys im new to the forums and i came across something interesting just thought i would share it with you guys...there is a guy selling a g2x on ebay right now claiming he has the official gingerbread update on his g2x and he said it hasnt been hacked and that its the actaul update...i cant post the link cuz im new but just wanted to see what you guys thought..if u type in lg g2x on ebay and scroll down his item display picture is a pic of the phone showing 2.3.3 under phone info...and is there anyway he would be able to leak that to us...i messaged him already and told him i was interested in the phone and i want to know where he got the update...when he got it..and can he please leak it to a developer..im a noob so i dont no if he still can leak it...anyways what do u guys think
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
There's an old gingerbread leak already, but it wasn't completed at the time. He probably just flashed that version, not the official finished rom we're all waiting for.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] antfitts:
Ya could be but in his description he really makes it out to be the real thing..he said everyone in the world is waiting for this update and then went on to say its not some hacked gingerbread its the real deal and its awesome..ill let u know what he writes back if he does..but i dunno could be wat u said...just have high hopes brotha..if it were real would he be able to leak it..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LowQue27:
Maybe its the one that the tmo reps are supposably testing?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] antfitts:
I guess im able to post links now so check it out brothas...i say we blow him up with messages asking him to leak it if possible...if not we could blow up the buyer..lol..

Thats exactly what i was thinking...but is there any reason he couldent leak it..now that we actualy know someone who has it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
Thought 2.3 had a black top banner, not the white one he is showing
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yea somethings fishy cuz official gingerbread has a black notification bar, and also if someone is running the leak now just match there baseband numbers up in with the one in the pic, well atleast what u can see of it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
My baseband shows the same as his, I'm running Fauxs aosp. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the baseband "should" be updated when the new/official GB hits. Yes? No?

I call shenanigans on this one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
lol shenanigans indeed!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
Baseband doesn't necessarily have to be different. It's just for the cellular radio, has nothing really to do with an OS upgrade :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
so u dont think they would give us a new baseband and radio?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
idk somethings weird with it the notification bar is white it seems like the only pic that he truly took was the one with the os build and baseband all the other ones are from like a tmobile store or something the one pic u can see the phone is still hooked up to the security device in the store (2nd pic) hes holding something on the back of phone which i think is that security device......idk seems too fishy
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gb091685:
just as an fyi, as a tmo rep that is testing the new gingerbread rollout that everyone is waiting for. dont get your hopes up, ima leave it at that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cyberdan3:
Don't just leave it at that!! What do you mean?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
I'm guessing there's still more work to be done. I give T-Mobile credit though for using their own folks as part of the QC process to make sure the update's right before releasing it in to the wild.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] skye206:
????? What????? Where's the proof
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yeah really......
[T-Mobile LG G2x] WRX1:
scam. The pics of the phone itself are from in a store and the screen shot is no big deal. Hell, mine says 2.3.4. It doesn't matter anyways. The CM nightlies are running damn strong now and with the faux kernals, you will be building something way better than the stock GB anyways. Once the Gb update comes out, CM and the other devs will be ripping into it anyways. Just give it 2-3 days after the update comes out and you will have a better package than the stock GB.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] adevilfish:
i think he means don't get your hopes up that this phone is really running it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gb091685:
no im saying as for the restarts, phone getting hot while charging. signal issues or data connectivity. just simply updating the software on it is not fixing it all. yes the update does help batt life that was **** prior. oh and another thing. you read here or there line on tmo news that it should be released within few days, maybe a few weeks. still some work has to be done. Before i updated i was averaging about 5-6 restarts a day. after update maybe 1, been running the update for 3 days now and have had 2 restarts that i have noticed. when compairing to signal strength next to a diff tmo device. g2x still drops signal when it shouldnt. before the update my device was dropping signal litteraly after every call and would take about 30-45 sec before it would reconnect with the network. after-still drops the signal but now only takes maybe 5-10 sec to get full network connection back. as for the device getting hot while charging and tmo saying its just the software, Ima have to say bull. still gets hot even after updating and also not only replacing the battery but the usb cord and the power brick. so yeah therer are still a few bug but i will say the g2x after the update is noticably diff that when it was first release.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
understand but

never mind you answered as i asked.

what about gps and wifi.

and just fyi my phone doesnt get hot charging.

new baseband?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gubidi:
Could you make a nandroid and put it in the Development forum? It would probably help a lot of devs out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gb091685:
gps still takes for ever to get a locked connection. wifi connection stays strong does not drop, wifi calling works good. as for the nandroid yeah i will get one uploaded after a while when i get off work.

yeah my phone is getting hot. i am actually waitng on a diff device (brand new still in box) without the update so i can update it and then see if its just my device getting hot or what.

but yeah give me a few hours till i get off work and i will get that uploaded for you guys. they kind of block us out here at work lol. dont like up being on any other site other than tmo.com or tmo related. im surprised we have access to xda lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
well

1) your the man.

2) they let you on xda so you can get some real info :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gb091685:
yeah my buddy who works for tmo in customer in diff state said they are blocked from it. so i think its just my site that has the access lol. yeah i happened to stumble accross it one day testing diff sites to see what all i have access too.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] antfitts:
Thanks a ton brotha we just need the developers to get this update in there hands then maybe they could work out the bugs and get us a perfect rom in a week...thanks alot tho really really appreciate this
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kangxi:
I think the issues you are having are just with your phone. I experience none of those. So yea, you need to return it. Not before the update of course lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
This may be a 5 star thread if we get a copy of that leak!

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] skye206:
Yup same here my phone has none of those problems it bleeds a little but if your not looking for it you won't notice it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zenstrom:
I'm going to have to agree. I've been running the stock rom on my G2X bought on launch date and have never had that many issues. I've experienced one reboot, two 'sleep of death' issues (which I think might be related to the LED notification app I downloaded, since I never got them before.) My main issues have been: 1.) sometimes gets hot, particularly while running GPS/Google Nav for extended periods. 2.) Rebooted once as pointed out above. 3.) Slow GPS lock 4.) Sometimes 4G will come on even while connected to a wifi, and I'll have both wifi and 4G icons on screen at the same time. I have to to enable/disable airplane mode to fix.

I think some phones have faulty hardware, but because the software has been so buggy nobody's been able to pinpoint which is responsible. gb091685's issues seem like they might be partially due to software, but I would definitely swap that phone out.... sounds like a dud.

gb091685, is there a baseband update included with the GB update? If so, Nandroid can't back that up, can it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Ditto. Mines been great.

My g2x has been great after several reboots in the first week. No issue after that, maybe the factory reset helped. The only thing is that it reboots wverytime when I play music through bluetooth on my car studio, very predictable. Seems to me just some software incompatibility.

I dl'd gapps-gb-20110325-signed.zip (from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=962862 )to my pc, and turned on usb mass storage. i went to f:/download/root and put the file in there. Then opened it in root manager clicked install from root sd card, and installed the rom.

now to the probelm

when it turned back on it looks nothing like the rom, just my default rom but without any apps but the super basic apps for the phone (no junkware either) and superuser. no marketplace or rom manager.

i tried going to settings/accounts & sync settings and adding my account. then it says add an exchange account. i put my gmail email in and then it goes to server settings for my email... its all allready filled out so i just hit next and then it says setup cannot finish, unable to open connection to server.

if someone could help me through this or at least try i would really appreaciate it, my phones bascially useless untill then.
[General Questions and Answers] indymx:
Well, gmail is not an "Exchange Account"...

When you setup your accounts, use your Gmail account info with Gmail...
[General Questions and Answers] camf3xu:
well, i dont know what account to put in.. and i dont know if i really screwed my phone up. what is an exchange account then? that gmail account is what i had everything linked to (contatcts etc)
[General Questions and Answers] indymx:
Exchange is a Windows based corporate mail setver.

You dont need to setup an exchange account on your phone for it to work.

If you did a factory reset you should be prompted to enter your gmail info before anything else.
