[Captivate General] speedy_11:
So we have all seen numerous brick threads all over in the captivate sections right? Some people don't even know the difference between soft and hard brick. Plus their only so many possibilities of how to unbrick a brick. This is a problem right?

So a solution that i have come up with is sort of a self help guide (an attached pdf for now). It is not complete yet, but it gives you a general feel of how it should work.

If you have any opinions of what you think should be added, changed, remove or this is just a waste of time please post them. As I hope this guide will become a tool to help other and i want to make as good as I can. Plus it could help reduce the number of brick threads posted.

Thank you for reading.

p.s. If anyone have some info on the one-click odin for froyo please post or pm meView attachment 688683

sup everyone. Heres my dilemma. My speaker on my htc evo 4g was crackling (damaged). I have extended warranty but my phone was rooted. i started to unroot it. Put pc36img zip on the root directory and i get a fail-pu,partition up date fail. It does not want to take the update. I have read several and tried to run some of the recommended "how to unroot" procedures. End up with the same problem. Any other suggestions. The s-off. Radio-2.15.00.11.19.

thanks

downloaded s-0n. took out sd and mounted it on my computer. put the s-on on the root directory. removed and put it in my phone. volume down and powered up. hit recovery. results: wrong image. triangle red exclamation point.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
The problem there is you don't have a recovery loaded. Stock recovery [no recovery] is marked by the triangle and red !.

Go here > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026

Read the first green text , 'bootloader way' to install the recovery. Then repeat the steps of booting into recovery and flashing the s-on after you have amon-ra installed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosario04:
Thanks. I followed the the Bootloader way - - Thanks Tiffany84 ^^

Place PC36IMG.zip on the root of your sd card.

Boot the phone into the bootloader by powering the phone down, then press the power and the volume down buttons at the same time.

Once the phone boots into the bootloader the phone will automatically recognize the zip file. It will ask if you would like to update, select yes and let it do it's thing and you will be good to go.

results: radio v2-failed and partition update fail!

update fail!

rooting

Well. After working it I find another file: PC36IMG_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.30.651.3_Radio_2.15. 00.09.01_NV_1.77_003_release_157088-signed. Renamed it PC36IMG and unplugged the usb cable connection from my phone to pc and voila! It took the stock image. I am not sure which one allowed me to load the image update. Would you know?

Now that that part is done i rebooted and the s-off is still there. Should I load the s-on the root directory like you said. I dont want to freak up again.

Many thanks

Only thing is I need my Tab rooted.

If you didn't know in the last couple n64oid updates everything has gotten much smooth. I was wondering how high I'd need to bump up for it to be super smooth. not really looking to go like 1.4ghz or higher but if that's what it takes then most likely I will.

Hoping that I'd see vast improvements with a 1.0 or 1.1ghz

changing to 1.2 would be great, but anything over that wouldnt be too beneficial, compared to how much the battery depletes over 1.2ghz. also, try 1.1 with PERFORMANCE.

Hey xda.

Seems like some google service is keeping the phone awake, all the time. I tried turning off auto syncing but no go

Any suggestions? I'm on Villainrom atm
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aydc:
Probably you have Latitude turned on or you have Maps in the background trying to find its location all the time.

First turn off Settings => Location and Security => Use Wireless Networks

Then try to turn off Latitude. Since it's one of the first apps that I freeze after flashing a new ROM, I don't know how it's done.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flowlance:
Wireless Networks was actually turned on. Turned it off. I will monitor it to see if its being kept awake now, thanks. Is it supposed to keep the phone awake that much though?

Latitude was turned off though, i think. At least it says "Join Latitude" in google maps, so I suppose its disabled.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
@OP- You tried Turning Off Sync, but you haven't tried turning off GPS. It is on all time.

Nah GPS was off all of the time
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
Ask about it on the Better Battery Stats thread.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aydc:
According to your screenshot, it's the network location finding service that's keeping your phone alive, so turning wireless network location service should help. However, if it's not Latitude or Maps, you have another program which is constantly trying to find the phone's location. It could be a widget or any other app. Take a close look at what's running in the background and try to find out.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jesper64:
I just updated to Android Revolution HD 5.2.3 and Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 from an earlier Froyo version of Android Revolution.

Unfortunately, I have now lost the ability to change my Network Mode to GSM only. Previously when I clicked on Network Mode I could choose between two options, GSM only and GSM/WCDMA auto. Now the two options that I have are WCDMA only and GSM/WCDMA auto.

Is this the fault of the new ROM or the new Radio or neither. It's quite annoying as I often have to change to GSM only when network condtions aren't optimal and the phone is wasting battery trying to lock onto a WCDMA signal when there is none.

I realise I can change it via *#*#4267#*#*. However, that's not optimal as it isn't that quick a change between modes.

Cheers for any help.

So I just got my a500 today from BB. (and I am pretty sure there will be many more on here later today)

I am already about to root it, but now I need to know which rom to go with.

Is there a thread where all the roms are compared and contrasted. I don't want to start a flame war.

I just want simple objective pros and cons of each rom. I searched but couldn't find such a thread and its overwhelming to go look at each Rom thread individually.

TIA!
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
Sorry to dissapoint you but there is no "best rom " . There are no so many actually compared to the hd2 section for instance so I don't think you'll be overwhealmed with some reading. As long as you have CWM installed you can try them all and choose the one that suites your taste and needs. Some of them are ports, others are Acer based, there are 2 custom kernels as well, so go ahead and try. For some, particular features would be awesome,but for others the same features would be unwanted, that's why a comparisson like the one you suggest is irrelevant. Whatever you choose to do, read the stickies first. The "best rom thread" has been started over and over again in all of the device specific sections but always end up with the same answer - there's no such thing.
[Acer Iconia A500] acron1:

ClockworkMod - custom recovery which enables you to flash, backup, wipe, partition etc.

ClockWorkMod = recovery that will permit you to backup/wipe/flash roms.

If you download Acer Recovery Tool from the market you can use that app to install CWM very easily. Hope it helps.

[Motorola Photon 4G] P Daddy:
My mopho makes an odd ringing sound when booting up—right about when it says "Starting Services".

I've had phones with annoying startup sounds before (all startup sounds are annoying), but I'm completely perplexed why Motorola would want to make it sound as though the phone were ringing when it starts up.

This odd choice of startup sounds makes me wonder if it's in fact supposed to do this. The fact that nobody else has mentioned this anomaly (or asked how to turn it off), makes me think that maybe it's not.

So is it normal? Does everybody's do this? Is there a way to turn it off?
[Motorola Photon 4G] codee:
Mine does too... There is some settings that you can change for that if you'd like. I in particular have mine set to make a sound as a sd care is inserted/activated (which it does every startup).
[Motorola Photon 4G] P Daddy:
That was it! Turning off the SD card notifications gets rid of the ringing sound.

Weird though, because the ringing isn't the same sound it makes if you pop off the back cover while it's running and pull the SD card out or put it back in. You'd think, too, that this sound might be configurable, but it doesn't appear to be. I'm just glad to have it gone, though. Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrbelvedere:
Is it also possible to stop the BEEP sound it makes on shutdown?
[Motorola Photon 4G] reddragon72:
Same thing here, but this could be why...

I think it may have to do with the sound file that is set for notifications being on the SD card. If I change to a sound for notices that came with the phone it doesn't happen, but if I select a personal one that is on the SD card then it happens. odd...
