Can u think of anything you did differently? I can't get mine to work either. I am connected in the software.
[HTC EVO 3D] yurgon:
Honestly .. I'm not sure .. I went through the entire process once again from start to finish making sure I didn't make any mistakes. I also rebooted both devices after the install process before booting them back up and running CDMA Workshop. The only thing I think that I did differently was making sure I rebooted both devices after the installation process.

Hi in your opnions whats the best rom for the s,darkys? Or suggestions welcome,itsfor my better half,she likes it simple,im not beibng a git in saying thT
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
I'd say its all about personal preference mate, if you want a rom that's quick, with no bugs etc then yeah Darky's is the rom for you. But if you want a ported rom I.e HTC sense, 2.3.4 from the nexus s etc then that can be done :-) but as I said, its all about personal preference as roms are being released nearly every days and each with different capabilities and different features. I'm running Cyanogenmod 7.1 RC1 with Glitch kernel, overclocked to 1.44ghz and it works a treat :-) hope this helps bud :-)

Did debugging mode not work then bud?? Try this. First off, go into settings, wireless and network, USB, then tick Samsung Kies. Then connect your phone to your computer/laptop, wait a few moments, then load Samsung Kies, once loaded, at the top....select tools, then select re-install drivers. This will then install your device drivers again. Keep your phone connected whilst its installing your drivers. Let me know how it goes :-)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dills84:
I recently purchased a new head unit for my car (a clarion CX501) it supports bluetooth, I paired up my phone (running CM7.1 RC1) to the deck and all works great, music streams, phone calls come through the headunit... ect...

With the exception of one problem. The headunit supports storing the Phone book of the phone. when I try to "add phonebook" my phone asks for blue tooth phonebook (pbap) privlages which I accept (click always accept box) and then my headunit just sits on "Waiting" forever until i cancel it. It seems the phone is not sending the phonebook regardless of the privelages i gave it.

Is there a trick to this? or maybe i just stumbled accross a flaw in CM7.1?

Any help is appreciated!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dills84:
Looks like i resolved the issue. here's how.

I unpaired from my stereo, then went into contacts and hit menu > import/export > share over bluetooth and selected my stereo receiver.

It then said "File failed to send."

So then i Paired back up with the stereo and tried to add the phone book again from the stereo, and it sent. now its working fine.

Odd! but atleast its working now.

Hope this thread can help someone else with this annoying issue.

---------- Post added at 12:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 AM ----------

just wanted to know your opinion on the cx501, or tricks.

so far i like the cx501, but when it comes to the bluetooth im having problem.

sometimes it plays music fine and other times it stutters, as if its getting interfered with. the only way i get out of the stuttering is by cycling thru the sources and back at bluetooth then it plays normally. some times i would drive for an hour and it wont stutter and other times i would drive for ten minutes and it would stutter 5 times. its getting pretty annoying, do you have any suggestions.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zushauque:
Greetings,

Before I start , I searched everywhere , and I did not understand what to do , and if you want to skip the "weird case study" , look at the end of my post.

I purchased a Google Nexus S , which has the GRI54 build , and it was preloaded with v2.3.3 ; It did not support Arabic on it , so I read a guide about rooting the phone and installing clockworkmod on it ( using android SDK tools , Terminal , and it's commands ) ; and I moved the files to the system's folders using a program called SuperManager , Up until now nothing is wrong , everything is okay , Arabic is working , as well as the keyboard.

Recently I got the notification about the v2.3.4 update and - Just like any newbie would - I started downloading immediately ; The problem arose over here , when it was downloaded , I touched "Install Now" and waited excitedly .... But it brought up ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.8... and .... Nothing was updated. I downloaded it again , but this time I was looking up to Manual installation.

I used that SuperManager and went through the system's files , till I found the Update file in /cache , I copied it , and put it on the SD and renamed it "update.zip" , then I went again on that Bootloader > ClockworkMod > "apply sdcard:update.zip"

I was relieved , and so convinced that this thing would work . . . Suddenly the provided log appeared.

-- Install from sdcard...
E:Can't find MISC:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:

//Crespo? Is that some sort of chips?

The important things I need help on are :

- The update

- How to return the phone's recovery back to the stock one , without destroying the tiresome Arabic support thing , or a possible alternative.

- How to remove the Lock Image from the boot "Google" Splash ( Or unroot ).

Further Details :-

Model : Nexus S

Android version : 2.3.3

Baseband version : I9023XXKB3

Kernel version : 2.6.35.7-g1d030a7 ( looks similiar to linux's...? )

Build number : GRI54

PRODUCT NAME - HERRING

HW VERSION - REV 52

BOOTLOADER VERSION - I9020XXKA3

BASEBAND VERSION - I9020XXKB3

CARRIER INFO - EUR

SERIAL NUMBER - ShouldIreallyputthat?

LOCK STATE - UNLOCKED ( it's in red )

Target Update : " Nexus S System Update Gingerbread MR2 ( 94.8 MB ) " ; the one which enables gTalk video chat.

I would appreciate it if you would help me on this matter.

Thanks in advance.

Unlocking bootloader will wipe everything. Read the guides on these forums (there are two sections so beware that you choose the right phone!) to find out if you think you can handle unlocking bootloader, rooting Android and flashing custom roms yourself.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
The order for applying a custom rom as I usually do is:

unlock bootloader

flash custom recovery

root the device

rename the recovery file in booted android to avoid removing the custom recovery

flash custom recovery again

flash custom rom

>> Disclaimer: I'm not an expert! <<

It looks like you got a problem with the recovery, maybe you didn't flash the custom recovery first?

Also make sure you got the right rom/recovery for your device (Nexus S 4g or Nexus S (i9020a/t or i9023)).
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zushauque:
Thank you very much for your contribution ( Danke in your language I assume :] )

I did not backup the stock recovery , but I've got ClockworkMod already installed in the recovery , and when I try to flash another one using adb ( Android Tools SDK + Terminal and Fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork.....img ) it gives me an error : cannot load "recovery-......img"

On top of that I tried the 4G , Not working , the 3G Not working , both of them gives the same message , tried the RC1 , Same message , tried the usual Gingerbread update , same "assert" message.

It is temperamental ; that you get the same message of assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo"

Thanks for your help , and I hope someone would give me a hand with this.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
The steps are:

-unlock your device

-flash cwm recovery

-boot into the recovery itself without restarting (on bootloader, after flashing recovery, just enter it)

-flash your custom rom

(if you are flashing a custom rom right away, you do not need to root your device cause the custom rom comes with root itself....)

also, if you are getting a certain error 7, try going to an older or newer recovery to flash your rom. (depend what you flashed initially)

IMPORTANT: even if you do not succeed, it is important not to try other stuff not intended for your phone. things intended for the nexus s 4g are not to be tried on the normal one( n vise versa) . Be sure what model you have and flash accordingly.

good luck/
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeren:
i just saw your log and it struck me that you are using a very old recovery.

If you have an i9020 or i9023, flash the recovery i linked here and flash your rom again

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zushauque:
Oh , I flashed it this time and it worked , probably because I changed the directory to where it is , in Platform-tools folder ( while having the environment variables set to where my android is ofcourse )

Now there is a newer problem , phone does not boot into recovery anymore , instead it boots to android OS... could it be because my "PRODUCT NAME" is "HERRING" , not crespo?

EDIT : I have just discovered that the update provided by google is for crespo , not for herring , and I am working on herring , and Herring seems not to actually exist on the internet , except an old version clockwork recovery , Is there is a way to change "HERRING" to "CRESPO" ( I don't think it's possible though )?

With that out of the way, there are some really poorly coded apps that kill the battery even if it's not doing anything in the background. Even if the app does not, it takes away available memory, though it's usually not that much.

Just tried Boat Mini Browser my friend. Same as the others. Not as smooth as default browser when it comes to pinch and zoom. I am real picky abouy that as if try to do it with any other browser, it feels jaggedly like it is eratic or out of control. It is alittle better with 2 hands but definitely alot worse with 1 hand. Just compare the differences when you open up the same page with the default browser and any other...wish there were some tweaks for these alternative browsers.

It's GPU Acceleration, the UI elements are converted into textures which the GPU handles well. Same method Apple uses for it's UI rendering.

That is why the SGS2 feels so much more smoother than other android phones, not the processor.

Tried almost all mentioned: Opera, Firefox, Boat, Dolphin HD & Mini, Miren...all about the same but nothing came close to the default browser. I think that Opera Mini was smoothest out of all the others. Remember this is about pinch to zoom, and not about scrolling and other browsing features.

That´s not true... your´e right with the other ones but opera mobile is as well hardware accelerated.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] NoOneCanHelpMe:
yes but, on dolphin as u zoom in the text is always readable and on the stock pinch zoom is smooth but if you zoom in a lot you have to actually pick your finger up so that the text is readable ;)

i'd rather have an always readable text than smooth zoom with which I have to release my finger every time to see if the text is fine to read :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] c4Lvin:
Absolutely no way is opera mobile pinch to zoom is as smooth as the stock browser. I don't care if it is hardware accelerated or not. I thought it wasn't even as smooth as Dolphin HD. Tested that just now although there are tons of other features.
