Oh, had no idea. Was just generally talking about the site, i installed Go launcher on the first day so i havent got in touch with TW xD
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] g0dsome:
i use MyFiles.apk and now it doesn't show MyFiles, just replaced the icon then the apk using Root Explorer and rebooted, disappeared. what to do?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] anto.danny:
you cant just replace your apk in root explorer...follow the updated method above :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] g0dsome:
I did like you say up, used ur zip, replaced the icon then inserted the apk in app folder in the UOT zip and entered Recovery mode and installed it from there, still doesnt' appear, maybe because i change it 1st, and didn't do backup :7
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps] anto.danny:

[Motorola Droid X2] y0himba:
I am running 2.2.2. I have rooted, and completely removed some of the bloat, but I uninstalled it, I did not freeze it.

If I do a hard reset, will that restore the phone to it's factory condition complete with the software I removed? I removed the VCast stuff and most of the included Verizon garbage.

It is 10:24pm EST on July 31, and I have still not gotten the 2.3.3 update. I am manually checking about every 30 minutes.
[Motorola Droid X2] TheMavic:
No, you would need to download the SBF file and restore the phone back to factory condition. There are countless tutorials on how to do it on here. Good luck!
[Motorola Droid X2] y0himba:
SBF installed correctly, all the bloat is back and the phone is no longer rooted, although all of my settings seem the same. I cannot get it to root again. I did a wipe and *228 then reinstalled Gingerbreak 1.2.0 which allowed me to root again. I am unsure of where to go from here. Something about a bootstrap and then update.zip on external sd card to update to the pre-rooted 2.3.3?
[Motorola Droid X2] judiko:
Yes download the bootstrap, and p3droids pre rooted gb. Once you get in recovery flash the .Zip. they have more detailed instructions in other threads
[Motorola Droid X2] y0himba:
So from the recovery app I choose which option? I know it isn't going to be Charge, so it is either "Install Recovery" or the second option.

When choosing the second option, my phone does nothing except sit at the "Dual Core Technology" splash screen. I have placed the pre-rooted GB update on the root of my external SD card (not internal) and renamed it "update.zip". It didn't give me an option to install from SD card or anything, just sits there.

It appears to be doing absolutely nothing....just sitting at the dual core logo screen.

I don't want to yank the battery or press any buttons because I am unsure of what the phone is doing and do not want to brick it.

Thanks for all your help BTW. I am an old fart in a tech world, and this is my first Android phone. I love it.

Edit: AHA! I didn't hit "Install Recovery" first! I should have read the screen but I have been reading so many posts and threads I missed it.

"SUPER-NOOB" Question of the Day

I am in Orlando and have yet to receive the OTA GB update. I do run LauncerPro Plus on my X2 - would this in any way hamper receiving the OTA update?

Told ya...."Super Noob" question :-)

Many thanks,

Doug
[Motorola Droid X2] EvilTim:
If you aren't rooted you should get the ota update no issues, if you ARE rooted you don't want the ota update
[Motorola Droid X2] juhde:
That actually depends on what you changed, just root itself won't stop the OTA, modifying system apps and files will though.
[Motorola Droid X2] EvilTim:
Reread it, I didn't say having root would stop it, I said you don't want it, you want the prerooted file
[Motorola Droid X2] y0himba:
You want the pre-rooted file, without a doubt. However, we will eventually need a 2.3.3 stock SBF to revert for further updates.

I installed the patched 2.3.3, I wonder if it can be unrooted if necessary.

I am new to this, so excuse the paranoia, but how can I be sure that this update, the pre-rooted patch, is actually 2.3.3? The system info can easily be edited to say it is 2.3.3...

It is running fine, however with the Internet the way it is today there is no telling what we just installed on our phones.
[Motorola Droid X2] juhde:
We don't need a 2.3.3 sbf because the current one still works. For future updates you'd just sbf back to 2.2.2 then pull any updates from settings. At least that's how we do it for the OG Droid.

For your paranoia cure, lots of ways. The new battery stats menu, phone bars turing colours when internet connection is established, new blur icons. The fact the phone actually runs well without modding the memory settings. All these are telling you it's gingerbread. Plus why would a respected dev like P3Droid want to lie?
[Motorola Droid X2] y0himba:
Oh I agree, and I don't think he would lie, but I am old, and new to Android as well as this being the first time I have done an update in this way. I was around Windows Mobile for a LONG time, and in a lot of ways it was more simple to flash a ROM there.

This was easier however, and retained my settings for the most part. The guides here, while being a bit confusing due to grammar for me, are exactly what I need to get the job done.

How long until I need to worry about updates again?
[Motorola Droid X2] juhde:
Knowing motorola. 6 months.

Of course there will be a lot of custom ROMs out in the next few weeks based off gingerbread that you might want to try.
[Omnia 7 General] ralex3000:
Hi guys!

While browsing over the internet my phone simple restarted. But this time, it is stucked into the Samsung Omnia 7 logo. I tried removing the battery and nothing. Also, Zune does not recognize it since OS does not start.

I've tried to do hard reboot. Nothing. Also, I tried to enter in download mode, and flash it. The flshing process was perfect and complete, but after all, my phone is still stucked into the start screen. I don't know what else can I do.

Any ideas?
[Omnia 7 General] OndraSter:
Do you have 8 or 16GB version? Some weird pattern is starting to show up :o).

And what ROM did you flash?
[Omnia 7 General] ralex3000:
I have the 8GB version.... I flashed that one in the guide you guys suggested here in XDA.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Omnia_7#Accessing_Download_Mode

Should I try any other? Do you have any suggestion?
[Omnia 7 General] OndraSter:
You should try the latest one. Or the UK unbranded one.
[Omnia 7 General] ralex3000:
I'll do that.... Do you know where can I find the uk unbranded?
[Omnia 7 General] ralex3000:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lstat:
i just bought a desire locally. i called the woman to ask about it, she said it had a sim card slot and it does work with AT&T. i was excited because i have always wanted one, last time i tried trading for one the canadian post sent my phone back :/ anyway, the phone was dead, i charged it up and what do i see? the Alltel boot screen...i figured i cant use it but id like to play around with it, root it etc. my question is, when rooted, what would this specific model be worth? if i can make back my $100 ill be happy, thats really all i want...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phanmo:
Why can't you use it? What's Alltel?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
yeah.. why don't you just debrand it and use it...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lstat:
Alltel is a CDMA carrier. They were merged with Verizon within the last few years. Because it isnt a world phone it doesnt have a SIM slot, so in turn, its pretty useless to me.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phanmo:
Wouldn't it be easier to just pull the battery to see if there's a SIM card slot instead of all this stuff about carriers? You have the phone physically there in front of you, don't you?

Regarding what it's worth, I couldn't begin to tell you for a CDMA phone. Where I am in Europe, I've seen secondhand GSM Desires for sale from 50 to 500 euros.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lstat:
The phone is in front of me, I have pulled the battery. It does indeed have no sim slot, if it did I probably would have already used it. All this stuff about carriers is exactly why I cannot use it, Im just simply trying to figure out whether or not I will be able to get my money for it considering I rarely see the CDMA model.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You should be able to make back the $100. Have a look on Ebay.
[HD2 General] Tho San Thanh Pho:
I am wondering if I could replace the screen without any troubles. Can this HD2 be fixed like new by replacing the glass screen and the digitizer?

[EDIT] The Screen was still working 1-2 weeks later, then after that the screen stopped working... So I'm thinking something is wrong with the screen digitizer but I'm not do sure.
[HD2 General] sammael1069:
They sell a kit for 40 bucks comes with screwdriver and separation tool
[HD2 General] Tho San Thanh Pho:
So its a problem with the digitizer right? And then I could fix it and it will work again?
[HD2 General] johnerz:
That depends upon your skill and abilities :)
[HD2 General] enigma1nz:
My professional advise is either to use professional to install or to purchase LCD and digitizer in one unit, even though your LCD is fine. There is no glass screen and digitizer, there is LCD and digitizer, neither of which you will be able to install separately, given your question.
[HD2 General] Tho San Thanh Pho:
Ok thanks every one for replying!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Mr_Sinister:
Hi folks. I have tried the Odin process three times to try to get CWM functioning on my I/O tab with no luck.

The actual Odin process seems to work fine; however, when I reboot the tab to enter recovery mode; I never get the recovery option. I only have the USB symbol and the downloading option. Also, in the upper left corner, I have:

Fastboot USB download protocol

bootloader version unknown

baseband version %s

serial number:

lock state unlocked

What am i missing? Can the I/O tab use CWM?

Thanks!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xEVILFREDx:
I had the same thing, but when I am trying to root the device it just lock on boot screen. I am not a dummy but something is wrong where several users have diffrent symptoms. I would wait until further development is done. This is still a little shaky.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gunzo71:
Odin CWM doesn't work for some reasons ..

Use this post to get rooted

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15735928&postcount=2

Follow the instructions carefully !!

Download CWM and do an Install on CWM (it will install 4.0.0.4)

copy the required files to the root directory /sdcard/ (main directory if you don't know)

-Get the roms from HERE

-Get the su_busybox_misc-sam_tab_10.1-051511 HERE

Flash in the ROM 1st .. the apply the SU update (in RECOVERYMOD BEFORE you reboot)

Data / wipe

THEN REBOOT

I missed that 2nd update zip .. and trust me its a pain to get it rooted after that ..

The same procedure will not work again once you're on TW3.1 rom .. you will need an image of the system files and NVflash now..

BTW if you can do NVflash .. then I can send you the image files for 3.1TW rooted .. :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gunzo71:
Ha .. I have 3 IO to play with (from friends)..

1st one is rooted out of the box ..

2nd one cannot communicate on FASTBOOT

3rd one does everything nicely (thats the one I had the image extracted with NVFlash)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bill.allrobots.org:
I'll say it nicely before someone comes to say it rudely, this probably belongs in a general section rather than the development section (that is, until you develop a method to get around the restriction you've found ;))

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ralexand:
If you have fastboot working, then rooting is as simply as 'fastboot boot [cwm recovery filename].img'

I spent a long time getting fastboot to work, but the only fix was to finally download PDANET software to my PC and install it while it was connected to my tab. After that I got fastboot working.

Fastboot made the rooting process 100% easier. You can root any stock ROM with it and not have to reflash to 3.0.1.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] z31k:
I had the same problem with my I/O. I finally got a recovery option. What I did was flash the Euro version of TW located in the development section (which is buggy as ****).. After that I Installed CWM and flashed pershoot's root tools. Then I flashed the latest TW Rom. Everything is running smoothly, despite the samsung apps fc. Be weary of the disclaimers located on all the sections I have suggested. All of these steps are at your own risk... :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mchimney:
Odin worked on my I/O tab after i put TW on it. I had to boot the tab into CWM via fastboot from a mac

Yes, I got the update last night.

I've contacted HTC support but I'm not holding out for any reply other than "hard reset" - which is not acceptable.

[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
I'm back to Sprint Stock Rom after having some fun rooting and picking up some ROMs. I have some problems with the camera freezing after taking a photo and HTC recommended to take it in their repair center.

I have S-OFF from Revolutionary and although I don't have the "Revolutionary" logo in my bootloader, I still have S-OFF on top. For whatever reason, I can't get S-ON to hide my actions (Don't ask about this, I tried everything).

I'm wondering if I send it in with S-OFF, that HTC will void my warranty and not fix my phone. I heard that some phones came with S-OFF so I can argue my case with that...
[HTC EVO 3D] AyyRayy:
You wrote setsecureflag 3?
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Well I would be very hesitant to send it in to HTC with S-off. As Aray asked, did you run the RUU, and then do "fastboot oem setsecureflag3" from the command prompt? That is what should set you back to S-on. Here's the thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1194053. Now I haven't tried it yet, so can't say for sure, but it seems as though that's the working method to get back to S-on.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
It's apparently "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3"

The other method did NOT work for me. The above method did work and I'm excited to be S-ON again so I can send it in for repairs and what not.
[HTC EVO 3D] Success100:
wait..yor taking it to an HTC repair center O_o r a sprint center?

I used to work at a Sprint repair center about 11 months ago, and I guarantee you most of them have no clue what s-off even means. They have a new system called slate that does all the device testing, so unless it checks for s-off they probably wont even know...but I guess theres nothing wrong with being safe
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Thanks for confirming that. I was following the other thread and saw that people were NOT having success with 'fastboot oem setsecureflag3'. Glad to see that 'fastboot oem writesecureflag3' works. Thanks for confirming that. It's good to know for future use, just in case.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
Yeah, no problem. I'm just excited that I got to learn more about how cmd works and am really proud that I got this baby working again.

And I'm sending this in through HTC's repair center, I'm not sure if I can send it through Sprint's repair center.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
Damn, that's going to take a bit of time to go that route. Have you taken it to Sprint to have them look at it? Sometime's they'll handle it in store. It'd be worth checking with them.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
Really? I thought you had to buy the phone from a Sprint store for them to check it. I bought this unit at my local Bestbuy...
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
You know, I'm unsure about that. I would *think* you could still take it a Sprint store, because they are the ones providing you with cell service, but I can't say for sure because I've never had to do that. I really think they'd look at it for you though..
[HTC EVO 3D] weidnerj:
I would say if you have S-off, they probably wouldn't catch it. And even if they did, who cares? There were a few phones that got out with S-off set, and you were just one of those lucky few.

But I did run the RUU file to remove the "Revolutionary" from the menu system. That probably wouldn't fly very far with them.

Guess in the end it depends on the mood of the person assisting you. Learned if you get them to believe that they are your only hope instead of demanding that they fix your phone, usually you get your way, and the person helping you feels better too. Don't give him or her an excuse to deny fixing or replacing your phone.

And I believe that if there is an issue with the phone, back to stock and it still exists, then there is an issue with the phone itself. BTW, I have had my phone replaced twice within the 30 days of purchase for defective phones.
[HTC EVO 3D] jes24cap:
I bought my wires shift from bestbuy and Sprint took care of it. I did not have the Sprint warrenty just the bestbuy warrenty. Sprint charged me $35 since I did not have the Sprint warrenty, but I removed my bb warenty on the new phone and added the Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
Well, I'll definitely contact Sprint about it. They have been very generous to me recently. Not only did they give me $50 service credit for all my lines, they gave me another $15 credit on top of the activation fee waived for this phone.

I'll definitely contact their service center and ask them what they could do for me. I'm pretty sure they'll go easy on me.
[HTC EVO 3D] weidnerj:
Last time I was at the Sprint store to get my phone replaced since it failed the radio test, the guy gave me the battery, back cover and 8 gig memory card and new phone while just keeping my old defective phone shell. That really hooked me up - he said that HTC only wanted the phone back for credit.
