I've burned my ubuntu live disk in 64bit, but for some reason, when i boot it up on my HP dv2945se, the screen is distorted by these horizontal lines and no adjustments to Monitor Settings would get rid of them.

Your post is so vague, no one can help you except to refer you to the root thread. Now if you'll state what errors your having, or copy and link to a pastebin your bash session, you might could get some help.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rakeesh_j:
Well if you do that, then why would anybody post to the general/Q&A forums? Why wouldn't they just post here where they can get maximum exposure to their question and they'll get it answered anyways?

Next thing you know the developers start going elsewhere because it's hard to find useful information; you have to sift through a bunch of garbage first. I had to put up with the same crap as a developer in the tivo hacking scene, it gets so frustrating.

Besides, it's made extremely obvious that you aren't supposed to post questions here, so don't do it. If you ask me, posting questions in the development section should result in a 5 day ban.

Recently got Vibrant its rooted and flashed to Trigger but i'm inclined towards SimpleHoney since its a new phone none of my contacts or any useful data is there so do i need to back up ? I know i need to move to Stock Eclair but is the Titanium backup necessary ?? Or do you guys think i should stay with Trigger ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomadrider123:
How familiar are with rooting and flashing? For now maybe you might want to stick with trigger. Either way check out this thread it has a lot of good info.

I haven't done any flashing yet nor backup have gone through the manuals and it seems pretty straight forward my only concern is do i need to care of nandroid backup even if i dont care of data since its a new phone ?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
Nandroids not gonna help you if you move to different firmware. If your running 2.3 and you try to restore a 2.2 or 2.1 nandroid then its not gonna werk. Still its always a good idea to backup just in case. Honestly I'd just start fresh, its YOUR phone now and we all have our own preferences.

Save contacts to gmail, thats really my only tip. Good luck!:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSneakerWhore:
Don't worry about TiBackup....WORRY about making nandroid back-ups. Nothing is worse than being new to this and borking something and NOT having a solid back-up to flash to.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinjo_jo:
Why should i be even worrying about Nandroid backup since i dont have any data or contacts in it ? (That's what i'm trying to understand) And yes its stock was Eclair so i need to move to that then flash with Simple Honey.

Also i see in Simple Honey thread it says its for experienced user , does it mean i should avoid as if now ? and do it after i have flashed 2-3 times
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marquise:
Doing a back up would not be necessary ...if your going from 2.2 to 2.3 .. just read the op carefully ... its pretty simple

Ok, here's the deal. Didn't think I was a noob, but I guess I am. I flashed the 2.3 firmware for the i9000 on my t959. Now I'm stuck - I can't get into download mode via the three button method, and I can't get in with ADB. I can't root either, nor get into recovery.

Does anybody know a method to get me back into download mode? From there I'm smooth sailing. I thought when I flashed this that hey, if it doesn't work, no problem - just go into download and Odin back to stock. 6 hours later I've got nothing.

Help me xda, you're my only hope.

EDIT: Wait! I may have a solution - I'll post here. My voodoo lagfix was enabled. By disabling, I'm now back in download mode via adb, and Odin sees the device. This may work - I'll update if so.

EDIT 2: Worked. I knew once I got entirely to my wit's end and posted a question, something would break. Anyways, that's how you do it if you run into trouble - disable voodoo if enabled, and reboot into download mode via the adb method. Adb instructions available here if you need them - addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/

EDIT: copy file from /sdcard to /system/media with root explorer.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CaelanT:
If it's just the bootanimation.zip you can't flash it. You need to copy it to your sdcard, then using root explorer or another file manager move it to /system/media.

Backup the bootanimation.zip which is already in there. I usually just rename to bootanimation_original.zip or something like that.

[Atrix 4G General] Malibee:
I can't post this on the original thread because of The Rules about new users being blocked from developer forums(feh), but I wanted to share the script I used to automatically update the telephony database instead of buying the Root Explorer and SQLite Editor apps. Tested on my AT&T Atrix with stock builds 1.8.3 (Android 2.2.2 Froyo) and 4.5.91 (Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread).

Install the Android SDK and the Android Debug Bridge if you haven't already.

Get a copy of the sqlite3 binary for Android (I found one in the SuperOneClick zip file)

Root your phone (one method is here). The important part is to be able to su to root in an ADB shell.

Download the attached shell script, chmod it +x (and change the extension to .sh if you fee like it)

Push the sqlite3 binary and the shell script to a temp dir on the device:

$ adb push sqlite3 /data/local/tmp
$ adb push telephony.sh /data/local/tmp

Shell into the phone (make sure USB debugging is enabled):

$ adb shell

su to root:

$ su root

cd to /data/local/tmp:

# cd /data/local/tmp

make sure the script is executable:

# chmod 755 telephony.sh

run it:

# ./telephony.sh

Select AT&T Tether APN from list (Settings->Wireless & networking->Mobile Networks->Access point names)

Reboot device

Enable WiFi Hotspot

(Optional) Raise your fist in the air as you triumph over bloodsucking corporate greed.

If things get fouled for any reason, the script makes a backup of the files it modifies in the same directory with a "_backup" extension. You can restore the original databases by running the following commands in a root shell on the phone:

# cp -p /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db_backup /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
# cp -p /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db_backup /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

Make sure to include the -p switch, otherwise the file permissions won't be correct. It doesn't seem to be possible to set file permissions/ownership manually ("chgrp radio" gives an error).
[Atrix 4G General] thegnpool:
Okay I need help......... I've rooted and I've completely lost the ability to have free wifi tethering.!!! I've been trying to do this procedure all day long and when I try and run the script from a cmd prompt (just like this........ ./telephony.sh) it tell me I do not have permission to do that even though I've already CHMOD'd the file to give SU permission........ GRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr please help.
[Atrix 4G General] Malibee:
Changing the permissions on the script with chmod is just the first step.

Make sure you've shelled into the phone ('adb shell'), and then logged in as root ('su root'). The command prompt should change from a '$' to a '#' when you're logged in as root.
[Atrix 4G General] Alcapone263:
If you're having problems getting the script to work for you, try this method for Wifi/tether enabling, it worked perfect for me on Stock 2.3.4, as well as Ninja Speed Freak

entering nvflash recovery mode, but shuts off immediately after stating that it is entering nvflash recovery
