[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mabovalu:
Yes. Still no love. Have tried:

usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64

SGH-i897_Captivate_USB_Drivers_5_02_0_2

mini-KIES

Kies

AIO

uninstalling reinstalling each time

When I plug in the Captivate, any of 3 USB ports on the laptop, Windows gives the "Unrecognized Device..." message.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Go to settings/about phone. Look at the very bottom to see what rom you are running.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mabovalu:
Paragon RC6.0

FWIW, I also have a Win7/64 desktop with the usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64 installed and that works fine; can connect see "drives", use ODIN, adb commands etc.

It just the notebook, which I would like to be able to use to connect, especially when I travel, which has issues.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Check in program files for a Samsung folder. There may be remnants from old drivers that need to be manually deleted.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mabovalu:
Thanks for sticking with this. I was able to connect. I as focused on the Registry remnants, but your advice to clear out the Samsung folder in Programs worked. Thank you.

Additional comments: I am now running the Dlev ROM, it's OK, but when I plugged in the USB cable, just to the phone, it launched the Alarm Clock app! So I deleted that.

Then on the first of my four USB ports I got a USB driver failure to install, then the Windows Unrecognized USB device on ports 2 & 3. On port 4 it worked. (This is a Lennovo/Thinkpad notebook.)

I used the usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64 package as that also worked on my desktop.

Thank you very much.

That helps a bit,

But still, isn't there a way to use "DD" command in adb to dump the files?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
Sure, you can use dd from an ADB shell as well, but those raw dd dumps are not directely flashable via Odin - sadly.

For that one would need to do the repacking part of the above linked thread, those .img's should then be flashable via Odin (I have yet to try myself, but I'm interested in this as well, so I might give this a shot over the weekend or so).

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
Hi, I am a new user on the xda forums (although I have read countless threads). I am a little confused as to what I should do with my captivate. I am debating between flashing 2.3 (to which I see only one drawback: there are not many stable roms out there and flashing them can be a struggle as my recovery image is not very functional in 2.3), or sticking to 2.2 and finding a nice rom that I enjoy (only drawback: it's 2.2 and not 2.3! :p) So can anyone advise what to do? Thanks in advance!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
My opinion: If you're new to flashing, flash a 2.2 rom. There's less chance of things going truly wrong (less true brick chances). Then, once you feel comfortable flashing (and know a little more), make the jump to 2.3.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahajs:
I'd say go with 2.2, unless you are feeling brave. CM7 and MIUI (both 2.3) have pretty short battery life. Some people talk about having good battery life, but I think those people are in the minority.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
thanks for the quick responses. Well I have flashed roms before (not really new to it), it's just that I haven't done it through the clockwork mod recovery because I am not able perform functions in recovery mode when running 2.3 (which is what I am currently running). Is there a stable 2.3 recovery image for the captivate out there? (none of the options in rom manager seem to work for me...) Have others been able to successfully use rom manager on a Captivate running 2.3?? If so, could someone please provide detailed instructions on how to do so?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockRatt:
What are you NOT able to do in recovery mode for 2.3 that you CAN do in 2.2? I mean I have been from 2.1>2.2> 2.3.4>2.3.3>2.3.4 via clockworkmod without any issues.

What exactly are you trying/wanting to do? If you are just trying to change roms? A little more info might be helpful.

Sent from My KickAss Captivated CM7 OC'd 1.5Ghz/Undervolted
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
well yea basically I can't use rom manager to flash a clockwork mod recovery that is functional on my captivate. This hampers me from flashing roms through recovery. Could someone just walk me through the installation of rom manager on a 2.3 stock captivate and then the flshing of a recovery image (chosing the proper model etc.)? (I think the issue may have something to do with unsigned packages or something like that?)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
pretty sure there is a ton of info on here about that exact error.......in fact there is a freakin sticky on it.

you cant use ROM manager to flash recovery on 2.2 or 2.3....without getting around that error

hint: that error makes a really good search
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
okay well I found a method a while back involving the replacement of the recovery in the system/bin folder with a moded 3e recovery.... (not to change topic) but would you recommend soing that and then using cwm, or should i try this new bootloader stuff with Odin (or whatever is needed to flash roms through odin)?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
you have some reading to do.

pick a rom that you want, flash it

2.2 and 2.3 will come with android recovery 3e. to get around signature verification error, you need to replace the recovery as you indicated

if you are flashing from 2.1/2.2 to 2.3 (excluding CM7 and MIUI) you will be required to flash bootloaders first before you can flash the 2.3 rom

aside from going from 2.1/2.2 to 2.3, there is no reason to flash bootloaders....

if you stick with 2.2 roms, as long as you take care of the 3e recovery, you use CWM....always

if you go to 2.3 roms, flash the bootloaders ONE TIME, then you can flash as often as you want,
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
Ohhhh I see.... I don't think I clarified this, but I am currently on stock 2.3 using this method mentioined by: nakedninja42

So from here, do I need to do anything additional with bootladers in order to flash other roms - how exactly do I flash roms from this point? Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
if you are already on 2.3, then you already have the bootloaders. you dont need to do anything with odin or bootloaders to get a new rom on. bypass 3e recovery and use CWM... NOT ROM MANAGER, to flash your rom
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
Sorry to sound extremely noobish... but I thought cwm was through rom-manager?? How do I go about flashing solely through cwm?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
on the samsung galaxy s line, cwm is an update.zip file. all rom manager does is put an update.zip of itself on the /sdcard/

you dont need rom manager, just that update.zip. if you have bypassed 3e recovery, it will work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
o okay, that makes sense. I did see that update.zip file when using rom manager. So as I think you have said I already bypassed the 3e recovery because I am now on 2.3? So just find that update.zip file and everything will work through my recovery?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
no. any time you use 'official' firmware and not a custom rom, you will get 3e recovery back to defaults. you will need to bypass it again
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharma_akarsh:
yea okay that is what i have been trying to do with the replacing of the recovery... but that method does not seem to work. Do you have any other suggestions?

Nevermind I think I got it...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
Do you just want to get CWM recovery somehow? If you already have GB BL flash a custom kernel using ODIN which has CWM. For how to flash GB try to see installation instructions from Apex

[General Questions and Answers] bamsebiffen:
Hi :)

I'm wondering since slade87 stopped developing for the x10 mini pro, is anyone going to continue his work on cm7?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] NeutronBomb:
The app won't show in the market so you'll have to sideload it but SPB shell 3d now has a tablet mode. It's basically landscape mode and it uses higher res graphics instead of stretching it out.

I've been using it all day.. works pretty nicely. The auto orientation is a bit slow and sometimes buggy so I've kept it on landscape only. Your mileage may vary.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
How did you side load? I own and use my HTC Evo.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] PhantomHacker:
Pull via adb. Then copy to your SD card and install.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Adb? Android Debug Bridge? I sure hope not. Lol you mean pull it from my phone and copy?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] jthacker48:
You can download from FAQ on their website. It looks like an older version though. I'm not sure where to get the "tab" version. If there is an APK, can someone post it. It requires a serial once started, so should be fine.

I got the update on my phone. If you hit menu, go to home screen options, and experimental options, you can change from smartphone to tablet mode.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Found it on FAQ. Looks great behind activate screen. Unfortumately i don't have access to my serial number and my email address used is no longer active. Im waiting on a response from spb for the serial number. Found the google receipt, but no serial number. I could almost buy it from handmark again just tl instantly get a serial number to lay with this.

I was really hoping their tablet version would come out soon. I think if you can combine the touchwiz functions with the SPB workflow, itll make the GT10.1 a home run. :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] horatiob:
screenies please i would love to see what it looks like landscape...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Got my serial number. Man i love this thanks mr bomb for alerting me to this. I loved this app when i had a winmo 6 htc diamond and then on my htc evo 4g. I saw the demo for tablets a while ago and been drueling ever since.

I almost have my screens built and laid out. Id be happy to post pics but don't know how on non rooted stock rom. Maybe the TW ROM will be out next week and can use its built in function.

But i assure you folks this is the best home screen replacement. It has lots of wonderful and useful widgets included. You can also infinitely add or remove home panels.

Has anyone figured out if you can dock more than just the 1 icon in lower left as well as the app drawer? In the smartphone installaton/mode you can have 4 plus the 2D home to 3D home soft button. It would be awesome to have this on the tablet. I would easily uninstall ADW. Also has anyone tried setting as default home amd seeing if it sticks? My default home setting never sticks. I set it and then get pompted for it again.

Lastly, I had a bad experience when trying the VLT app on my Asus Transformer. I set as default and then it would not boot up. I had to return it. :( i definitely domt want a repeat. Lol
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Set as default home and it sticks! Yes! I can reboot and no hang ups. Awesome! This made my tablet even more awesome than it was. Nlw if Touchwiz will come out so i can take screenshots.... Ill post em!

Thanks mr bomb. You made my day!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] NeutronBomb:
One word of caution... don't enable live wallpaper is you're running this. I tried a few times and every time I had to uninstall SPB to get it to load up again. Other than that it worked great. I just wish it was more full screen instead of the multiple panes.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] ceno666:
I have it installed but needs serialnumber, i have purchased spb shell some time ago via android market... in this case did anyone got the sn from spb support?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
No you don't get serial number via Android Market. You have to buy from their site a 2nd time to get a S/N. I Google's for a discount code and got a 20% discount.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
See I have something odd. I have done live and static wallpaper and it didn't screw it up. I kept getting watch dog alerts on Android Core (home.) But nothing bad. All of a sudden today, I got to work and put it on my media dock and every app popped up with force closure. Then I got a pop up that looked like the SPB font and said my installation could no longer be authenticated. SPB dropped to my Honeycomb Launcher. Now my wifi at work requires a browser to sign in, and i had not done it yet. SPB will not startup. I uninstalled/reinstalled, cleared cache, etc. It just won't start up.

I passed on to their support. But I appear to be stuck and unable to use it at all. :( it makes me very sad. It really made my weekend to setup and use SPB Shell. But it is all gone now. If I do get it working again, ill have to start over again. :(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] NeutronBomb:
The way I got it installed is this...

Installed on my phone. Used root explorer to copy the apk from system/app to the root of my sd card. Then I uploaded it to my dropbox account and downloaded it on my tablet. Worked like a charm. I'm assuming this is because it was authenticated already with my SN when I installed it on my phone? Or maybe because my tablet is signed into my gmail account.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Awe.... gotcha. Where is it on the phone? I'm not rooted on my Evo 4G or Grab. So may not be able to do what you did?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] NeutronBomb:
It's in the system/app folder I believe. You need to be rooted to copy it out of there.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] dagaetch:
Can someone post screenshots for those of us who haven't installed yet? :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] djchad72:
Awe. I'm am going from an Evo 4G to Nexus S 4G this week. So I am probably not gonna risk rooting and bricking my phone. It would bring down the already low resell value on eBay. Lol

Maybe SPB will be kind enough to respond to my issues, even if they are not supporting it yet on tablets. It will hopefully be worth their time learning how to address it and advance their timeline for full release. ;)

Maybe after I get my nexus and install it there, I can root and find it if SPB decides to not help. It will install but nothing happens now when i press home and select SPB. I get the SPB Mobile Shell 3D is starting with the circle going round and round .... but not even the serial box pops up. I do notice that it accumulates 1.07mb of data during this process. Ill clear the cache and same result each time. Its like something completely obliterated every app, but permanently for SPB when i sat the tab on the media dock today.

Hey guys!

I found the Samsung Galaxy S2 for $499 in London Drugs (Canada), and since its within 14 days, I would like to return my phone to Bell and buy it from them. Only thing is that I just rooted my phone and I don't think Bell would be too happy about me returning a rooted phone. If I do factory reset, will that work, or am I hooped?

Thanks!

Shawn
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cue_32:
since you rooted, you must have used an insecure kernel and that your phone is booting up to i-9100 and not i-9100M. Since there isn't any available firmware yet for Bell version (i9100M) you're pretty much screwed for now.

However, what are the chances those Bell reps will reboot your phone and notice the difference with i-9100 and i-9100M?

I'd flash one of the leaked 'STOCK' KG2 firmware. This way, it's not rooted, and you don't have the yellow triangle...the only thing is, you're missing the 'M'.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nyssa1104:

[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone else was having trouble with other launchers? I got Launcher Pro, and froze sense and sense desktop in Titanium. Phone is much laggier than with just sense going. I thought by freezing sense, the phone should be better? Is there any other part of sense that needs freezing?

Matt
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I never thought of freezing sense when using LP. In my experience you just leave the root OS there and use LP as a replacement launcher. I never "froze" MIUI when I had that and was laggy, I just used LP as a launcher addition.
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Hmmm....It just seems so much worse than Sense 3.0. It seems to stutter an awful lot and whatnot. I tried with and without freezing.

Matt
[HTC Sensation] RaDeN305:
It seems like the experience with launchers is pretty random. Some people say their favorite launcher runs great, while someone else will say the exact opposite. My advice: try a different launcher. It shouldn't be laggy but who knows.
[HTC Sensation] dlads:
Got SPB Shell 3d, ad launcher ex, launcher pro plus, none of them lag to be honest m8, not sure why yours is? Maybe it's a widget based ting?
[HTC Sensation] mrg02d:
Haha, very odd! Everyone seems to say Sense 3.0 is laggy and complains of so many problems. I havent seen ANY of these laggy problems at all.

Oh well...

[HTC Sensation] jntdroid:
sorry to resurrect, but I was about to start a new thread and this one popped up in the search...

I don't know what it is about LP, but I can't get it to run smooth on this phone - never problems with any previous, and I've owned a LOT. It's gotta be a memory management issue, b/c if I load up CM7, it runs like butter (I've never tried any other ROMs, just rooted stock and CM7). It's mainly in the app drawer - opening/closing stutters/jerks like crazy, then moving through the app drawer is jerky too. The homescreen seems to run normal, however. It's very odd. Wish I could figure it out... I like running rooted stock for the lack of bugs (though CM7 alpha is pretty darn good), but prefer LP as a launcher.
[HTC Sensation] Kurisu87:
go launcher is much smoother than launcher pro
[HTC Sensation] jntdroid:
I know, at least on this phone, and ADW runs great as well... it's just odd to me that the Sensation is the only phone I've ever had this issue with (and some others, too, it seems). I've had a Thunderbolt, Inc2, Inc, DX, DX2, and D1, and LP was perfect on all of them.
[HTC Sensation] ArcticWolf91:
Same here. I'm running stock with Launcher Pro and its just not as smooth as say my MyTouch 4G, especially the app drawer.

And let me take this opportunity to ask: why is this phone so freaking laggy? I it should not lag because the hardware is there, but how could HTC release software that is so laggy? I notice especially that when scrolling up and down menus it stutters a lot. This really pisses me off. I'll root eventually and I know it will unleash the true power of this phone, but really how could HTC let this pass?
