P1010 mods

I could also some help with the P1010 Wifi only Tab.

I have been reading posts for weeks and everyone leads to an unrelated post that just confuses me more then the last. I am far from a noob, 40+ years building interfaces and device mods but this is getting crazy. I am thankful in advance for any help with the p1010.

If you browse the galaxy tab development forum here on xda youll see that a user called skin1980 and a tester russiandeveloper are kindly working through issues with clockwork on the gtp1010, I have installed it and it functions but am unable to assist with testing, but at the current rate you can expect a working cwm in the near future, NO THANKS TO SAMSUNG, head over and offer your encouragement, im sure it would be appreciated,

Hello people,

I recently installed GalaxySense Rom (Search "oozeroo" on Google) for my Samsung Captivate AT&T, and it was working fine, until I changed a few settings, then it said it was going to Hot Boot, so the hot boot worked fine. Then, I turned off my phone and turned it back on, and it does not boot. I tried some stuff (check the Situations). My phone is stuck at "Galaxy S Cyanogen(Mod)" (Picture Included!!!)

Situation:

-No Download Mode

-No recovery mode

-Flashed this rom with rom manager (wiped dalvik cache only)

-TRIED installing Clockworkmod recovery, but wont work (not booting into recovery)

-Only an internal SD inside phone, 14 Gigs.

(Ask me for more info if needed please)

Thank you so much, and please help.

Alright, well, thanks, at least, for the response.

I still have the 30 day warranty, although not sure if it is a good idea if I should because it is rooted! Aye caramba...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] treleung:
Wrong freaking forum. That being said, take out battery, hold both volume buttons, plug in USB, then put in battery, all with both volume buttons held the whole time. May take a few tries but will get u in download mode for Odin.

If this doesn't resolve your problem (it will if done correctly), visit the Captivate forums.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dvasavda:
aigh, did not work for me, and tried returning it, but they did'nt accept it, NOT because it had cyanogenmod on it, but because it was bot booting!

Thanks guys

Buy or make a jig to force download mode... its not bricked because its loading, probably something was messed up being that its a port and 1 change can send things into disarray seeing as the kernel has been reoriented and is very beta

can I cut off an old charger that fits the captivate, and use that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mr.AdAbsurdum:
There is an article somewhere on xda that shows you how to make it business 3 100k resistors and there must be other ways, you can if you want to waste a charger but look it up thoroughly before making any rash decisions

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike.r.olson:
Do any of the 3 "major" AOSP ROMs (Deck, SM, CM7) fully support ext3 partitions on MicroSD cards "out of the box" without any mods? I know Deck & CM will allow for moving any apps to SD, I just want to know if they'll move them to the ext3 partition or to the FAT32 partition.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
No, CM7 doesn't have ext support built in. Since deck is based on it, i doubt it does either. SM i'm not sure about, but I don't think so.

Add-ons like Dark Tremor do work though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike.r.olson:
Thanks a bunch! As soon as I get around a computer I'll thank you via the button. I just wasn't sure. I wasn't sure if I should partition my SD card. Guess not.

I wouldn't say you shouldn't. If you need more space than you can get with any other method, it's a good way to go. I'm an apps junkie and I've got about 400 apps installed. :) You just have to do some extra steps to add it.

If you have a Voodoo-sound enabled kernel (which is all of them but stock) then there's a setting for microphone sensitivity in the app.

Which I tested:

can't turn off edge/2G/3G

i have an acer liquid e, and when i set mobile networing off , the E of edge networking still stands in the status bar.

help me please
[General Questions and Answers] rogier666:
Plenty of apps restart your mobile data connection by themselves. For example, Lookout switches your data on when you start your phone, which allows blocked apps to bypass DroidWall when you reboot.

The only sure way to switch your data off is by renaming your access points with apps like ApnDroid, Quick Settings or Widgetsoid.
[General Questions and Answers] ipwngeek:
Good reply, rogier!

You can also try to reboot your acer, and see if it was a minor bug! Sometimes, its as easy as that :)

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jesand83:
OK so I think this question has been asked, but I've never seen an answer in any of the related threads.

I am currently waiting on an XTC Clip to arrive. I have also seen that Verizon will be posting the GB update in the near future.

So here is my question: will the XTC Clip work with the GB update? If the GB update gets pushed out before I get the XTC Clip, should I ignore it and wait for ACD168 to publish his Deodexed version? Or is it safe to update and then root/unlock when the XTC Clip arrives?

Again, I apologize if this has indeed been answered. If so, can you point me to that answer as you chastise me for being the newb that I am?!

Edit: Nevermind, as soon as I posted this I went back to the Gingerbread thread where the answer had been posted

and
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jrizk07:
There is currently no way to turn S-OFF/Root from gingerbread on the inc2. It hasn't been exploited yet.

If you want root or S-off it's probably best to wait for your clip or alpharevx.

If you don't care so much about root and can wait until an exploit has been found, by all means do the update.

Edit: Ah, I stand corrected. But Root still doesn't exist for GB on our device.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ACD168:
Here is the main factor. What ever RUU GB you upgrade to is fine as long as

IT DOESN'T CHANGE YOUR HBOOT

and this has been tested on what was released at that time and still is 2.18.605.3 which is right under the official OTA 2.18.605.4 (which I can assure you doesn't change the HBOOT as well). you can ROOT using XTC clip ONLY.

just open up the folder of the .zip you are installing and make sure it doesn't change the hboot. it says it in the file, so that's an easy way to check up with the phone.

AlpharevX will no longer work if you upgrade to GB in anyway.

Hope this clears a few things up.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cloiselle:
thank you for the clear and decisive information, hopefully it will clear up the continuous questions .. as i know i've asked my fair share already :p
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
I've had my Sensation for a week or so now... rebooted it earlier on, and now it's totally dead. Won't power up, won't charge, or anything.

Any recommendations of anything to try that I might not have tried? I've got a good background in this kind of technology, so I've tried the usual stuff - battery removal, leaving plugged in, holding buttons for longer etc...

Is there a trick that anyone's found?

If not, should I go back to '3' to replace it... or should I go to HTC and see if they'll replace with a nice S-OFF unit??

Thoughts please? :)
[HTC Sensation] gavin-phelan:
volume down and power button together and see if you can get recovery screen up and do a factory reset
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
Hi Gavin

Sadly it needs something more than that - that was the first thing I tried, thinking it might be software related.

Even tried leaving the battery out overnight before trying again, that didn't work.

What I have found, now, is that if I plug in the charger FIRST, and THEN connect the battery, I get an orange LED. I thought this might mean it is charging, but no, because when I unplug the charger again, the orange LED stays lit, and remains so until the battery is removed again.

I don't recommend trying this yourself, because it does say somewhere in the literature, NOT to apply power, without the battery being in place. I just figured, it's already dead, so it might do something different!

What I'd like to know / find out, is if there's a real "hardware" reset switch/button... my Toshiba TG01 had some hidden PCB pads which would allow different booting modes, etc... somethign like that I think it needs. I'm going to have to get a new one ANYWAY, but it'd be good to know what happened to this one, first!!
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:
Sounds like a hardware issue to me (maybe motherboard failed, that was an issue with all previous HTC devices)
[HTC Sensation] pr0x2:
Put it on charge without the battery. Now with a paperclip hit the +- pins for a second. After that unplug it and put battery in and normally charge it. Friend of mine did this with his Sonyericsson and it worked. Otherwise send it back to htc.

[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
Ok, I've spoken to HTC, and as it's within the first 28 days, the onus is on 3UK (Hutchinson3G) to replace the handset.

Spent over an hour in store with them this morning, trying various things, and they decided that they would replace the handset. Except they then realised that they won't replace handsets which were from 3 'direct'.

So, I figured, can't hurt to try the 'shorting' method - I would again, out of a background in electronics, say DO NOT TRY THIS METHOD, UNLESS IT'S A LAST RESORT! IT COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THINGS.

Now, instead of a constant orange light, I've got a flashing orange light.

Still no actual operational power though. :(
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
Thinking about it

This reminds me of a laptop I used to have - it had a "Quick Boot" feature which relied on stuff in the boot-area of the hard drive. Back then, I had a 'less-than-legitimate' copy of Windows 7, which used a boot-modifier to work as "genuine".

That laptop would, on occasion, refuse to power up for hours, and sometimes days at a time - and I traced that down to it being an issue relating to the loader software in the boot area of the HDD.

I wonder if this is a similar issue on the Sensation - an exception in the "quick boot" that makes it think there's still quick-boot data, even though there isn't, because the battery's been out. It's all hypothetical, but interesting to know how these things tick.

And who knows, maybe 3UK will send me an S-OFF unit in replacement.;)
[HTC Sensation] leighaus:
i honestly dont know why you would try shorting your phone thats still under warranty. Are you trying not only to fix your phone, but also void your still current warranty?

take it back. get it replaced, and stop trying mcgyver tricks. Its just not needed.
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
Leigh,

Thanks for your concern for my handset. Personally I'd say having a brand-new, week-old handset to fail completely and spectacularly is 'not needed', either (!) But, really, any of the above actions, which were given to me in good faith, were up to me to use, or not use. I made a calculated decision based on i) the current level of operability of the handset ii) the likelihood of any action taken voiding the warranty iii) the likelihood of my receiving a new handset under said warranty. I hoped I made it clear enough that anyone who would even THINK to consider performing the above procedure would also make such a calculated decision.

I don't know who McGyver is, but you'll notice that I did put a warning in my post stating that others shouldn't try it... chances are it would cause damage to the phone's power management, at the very least, it's cause wear on the voltage regulation side.

That said, there are times when simply shorting devices *can* work as said devices can hold small amounts of charge which can be dissipated with a short, a reverse polarity or otherwise. The cavaets being - a) it's already totally and completely dead, short of it going in flames, it cannot be made worse; b) the shorting (or other action) is momentary - the smallest fraction of a second.

Yes, it's under warranty. Yes, they're going to replace it. If we wanted to go into the whole matter of ethics, *if* I were the manufacturer, and I had proof that someone had done the above steps to their handset, NO, I would not honour the warranty. But I'm not, they don't, the handset already more-than-likely has a mainboard failure, so I was prepared to take the risk.

Eventually, the Service Manual for the device will be released, and this will help with matters of apparent hardware failure. In the meantime, it's a learning curve for everyone, and if I could help that curve at all with my dead handset, in the knowledge that a new one is coming, that's what I hoped to do.

Again, for all clarity, safety, etc. I am not advocating, or recommending the actions detailed above, or ANY other action other than in accordance with the user manual which was provided to you with your device. Do ANY of the above STRICTLY at your own risk, and on your head be it.

If anyone else has any ideas - "McGyver" or otherwise (who is he?!) - that won't obviously cause warranty-replacement issues, I would be happy to try them in the hope of furthering the knowledge of this new device. I'm grateful for any help, and for any chance to increase the small amount of knowledge we already have on this device.

McGyver is a character in an old American TV show from the 80's.He always got into impossible situations and always had some tricks up his sleeve like making a laser out of a package of gum,a paperclip,and a match.
[HTC Sensation] Ghostrider:
maybe it's the battery :confused:

I hat the same problem on my TG01, at the end it came out the Li-ion was all draind and my TG01 would not Charge it anymore.

not eaven in an external Charger:eek:

New battery was the only solution.

Maybe it's the same problem you have.
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
Hi GhostRider

I remember the days of the TG01 - turned out a decent handset, in the end.

I'd hope it's not a faulty battery on a week-old handset - although I don't have another battery to test it with, so I suppose it's possible that it was manufactured as faulty.

My new handset replacement arrives on Tuesday though... but I'll keep checking here to see if anyone wants me to do anything with this one in the mean time.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
Had my first Sensation for a week and then it beeped and died just like yours. All I did was swap the battery and plug in the charger. Still nothing. Called TMO and got a replacement.

I think even if you managed to do CPR and get it back up the fact it died in the first place indicates a serious problem. Personally I'd rather have one that's reliable.
[HTC Sensation] shootind5nukes:
I would be excited if my sensation bricked, I've been trying to brick it for a few days. sadly no luck. If it is bricked tmobile atleast will replace it with another, that's atleast another chance at getting s-off.

Mine did what yours did the other day. I thought it was ****ed. I took battery out for 5 and after that put it in and charged for ten minutes. Sadly, it worked fine after that.
[HTC Sensation] shootind5nukes:
s-off i hope?
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
My replacement is due around 1330h (UK time) today.

I'll let you know the status of the new phone when it comes.

I'd bet a beer it's *STILL* S-ON though... :(

Here's hoping!!
