[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonVito2020:
Here are some posts I think will help u find some answers,

Download mode is HOME BUTTON+VOL DOWN+POWER BUTTON

Recovery mode is HOME BUTTON+ VOL UP+POWER BUTTON

1 Android ROM and rooting dictionary: all the terms explained

2 A link explaining how to flash a custom Rom via Odin and their downloads.

3 Deodexed Stock roms

Hope this helps. By the way all these are custom rom lists and not samsung stock firmware. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsnoob325:
Thank you for the reply. Is cm7 a custom Tom?

How safe is it to use a custom rom instead of a Samsung rom.

Can some one tell me is there a particular order I need to follow to upgrade my phones firmware.

Like root then something else followed by the firmware.

Could I upgrade from xxjvo without rooting?

Again sorry all the questions I feel like a dumbass.

Thanks

Again sorry for being persistent but could someone give be a step by step quire to upgrading my current firmware xxjvo 2.3.3 to something better for battery and better radio signal.

Must the phone be rooted first? Must I install anything else before or after the new firmware

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobertSand:
Hi, check out samfirmware.com to download stock 2.3.4

I'm on the newest jvr, and my battery is good.

It's also flash manuals there for how to use odin.

thats the safest!

If you want root permission, you can flash cfroot kernel after the rom.

Edit: i'm on the oldest 2.3.4 jvr, looks like it came a new relese today.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgsnoob325:
Is a specific ROM needed to run a different firmwares? or vice verse?

If I flashed 2.3.4 does that mean I have a new ROM or new firmware or both?

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonVito2020:
Pls do refer my previous post for upgrading to 2.3.4 GB roms (2)

2.3.4 roms are way better for battery. There are some light weight roms with excellent battery life eg SURFACE,Matrux rom, Juwe's Smart Edition(My Pick) etc

You dont need to be rooted to flash a custom rom via ODIN.

CM7 is a custom rom and I would recommend it only if you know what u r doing. Its not very advisable for a noob (imho).

There is insanity cm7 034 with gb boot loaders [ROM] insanity CM 034 [16.08.2011] - Multi DPI But its in heavy dev stage. Pls go through their thread before flashing it.

Here is the EZBOOt link

Install or upgrade at your own risk. :)

[HTC EVO 3D] zander145:
so i ran the dead pixel test the day of getting my phone on launch day. No dead pixels, but while my phone was transfering screens, I noticed what looked like one today, so I re ran the test and sure enough, I have a dead pixel.... Is this covered? Is it even worth exchanging for a new one? Do i need to indoor and stock my 3vo?
[HTC EVO 3D] moghammed:
Depends.. Are you still in your 30 days?

I have 6 dead pixels, i'm exchanging today. You don't see them unless you run a test for it, or you're watching a movie and that part of the screen is black.

If you still have the option, i would always exchange.
[HTC EVO 3D] zander145:
well, I got the phone on launch day...

I do pay for the extended warranty too.
[HTC EVO 3D] cruise350:
Then your only option is to smash the screen with a hammer and claim it on insurance for $100. Your past the 30 day exchange and one dead pixel is not good enough to require an exchange. Are you sure its dead and not just dirt on the screen. Its not common for pixels to fail after that much use, they are usually DOA from the manufacture process and missed in quality control.
[HTC EVO 3D] Anon9mouz:
What's the test to see if u have dead pixels

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delusphere:
Hiya! Okay, I'm quite experienced with Android now, and I know this is a noobs question, and possibly frowned upon, but I was wondering what the best Kernel and ROM for my X10 is?

I previously used an X8 with CM7 (2.3.4) v.138 HACKDROID, and I pretty much want the same awesomeness on my X10 but better. There are a load here, and the Master Thread doesn't have any recommendations like the X8 Master Thread (which recommends HACKDROID).

I just need a few pointers and I won't post a noob question again. This is all I pretty much need to know.

Thanks :D

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
If your into Cyanogen, check out CM7-ZMOD, butter smooth. If you want a more Sony Ericsson feel, check out Wolfs 2.3.3 rom. Again, butter smooth.

There is not really any kernel options at the moment. SE hasn't released the sources yet.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delusphere:
Thanks. Yeah, its just like Hackdroid :) I found a 'Power to The People' Kernel by DoomLord, but it seems to turn off my signal, wifi and the USB cannot be recognised at all?

Only two quams with the ROM is lack of Governers - Not unless this Smartass one is good enough?? And the Volume in general is far too low.

Wish there was a Kernel to improve the ability even further. It's got the potential.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kemmo123:
if you want a fast, reliable rom then j's cm7 j004 with doomlord's custom kernel can't be beat. until se release sources for gingerbread. this is the best custom setup around... in my opinion...

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kantk20111:
When will they release sources?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
Under the GPL, I believe they must be released within 15 days of launch. I'm no expert though so don't quote me.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hzu:
In which part of GPL says that?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnacks:
I'd like to know why they are holding them back....

SE does so much slimy stuff
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
As I stated, I'm no expert, in fact, I could even be completely incorrect. I have however read other peoples responses to similar questions about SE releasing their kernel sources. They state that the Linux kernel sources, which are licenced under the GPL, must be disclosed within a certain period of time, which I believe to be 15 days.

Apologies for my somewhat limited knowledge about such licenses.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hzu:
No worries, I just want a confirmation. I've never heard such rule in GPL(confuses me a lot since there are variants of GPL out there).

Even the new Achotjan CM7 released... Just checked it now. Looks pretty awesome. I'd say try ZMOD one or The Achotjan CM7 if you are a Cynogen fan. I was using Wolf's 2.3.3 for almost two weeks now and I'd say thats the best if you dont want to use Cynogen ROM... Cheers :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Delusphere:
I'm going to give Wolf's a shot, but I really enjoyed ZMOD's, but it could be better. The HTC Mod keyboard doesn't work on it sadly. I've just resorted to using thumb keyboard, its pretty good actually :)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frosty666:
No you don't have to update your kernel, and no you don't have to wipe anything. The custom kernel is optional. I'm using stock kernel on 4.0.2.1 and its extremely snappy. I'm going to update to 4.0.3 tonight.

If your gps works, leave it alone. The PRL is the roaming list so you can connect to a tower; you update it on a sense rom because you can't in AOSP.

I too, just recently rooted my Evo and am running CM7.

Running my speed test app, it's reporting slower speeds than before I rooted. Is that common or do I need to update/change something?

Hi gracemillian et al

There were four "Orange" apps in the marketplace for Orange UK devices:

1) Orange Maps

2) Orange Wednesdays

3) Orange Daily

4) Your Orange

Unfortunately, Your Orange seems to have disappeared from the Marketplace.

[7 Mozart General] abrabr:
Hi. I had a similar issue as I am tied up with the US marketplace and wanted to get the full version of Orange Maps since when I bought the phone the app was unfinished. If you download and flash the ROM in this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=993176 - then that will install all of the four Orange apps. But doing this will completely erase everything on your phone. You can easily reload apps (and contacts are in the cloud) but you'll lose things like game saves.

I just updated to Mango v. 7720 and all my Orange apps are still there.
[7 Mozart General] andrew-in-woking:
Correct

Yep, this is correct. This ROM is version 7390 and will update to 7392 via Zune 4.7. You can then update to the leaked 7720 via the NoDoTo7720 route using Zune 4.8.

This worked for me.

2) Go in "/META-INF/com/google/android/"

3) Edit "updater-script"

4) Remove

assert(file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "htc_wwe/htc_vision/vision/vision:2.2.1/FRG83D/317545:user/release-keys" ||

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "vision" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "vision");

5) If you are parano, like me, remove firmware.zip on top of the archive.

6) Run ClockWorkMod, and apply zip.

7) go in fastboot

8) sudo fastboot flash radio '/tmp/radio.img' (Extracted from firmware.zip)

9) sudo fastboot flash boot '/tmp/boot.img' (Extracted from firmware.zip)

10) That's all :D

You think your solution applies to me too?!

Could I edit script file the same way?

What do you mean with:

[HTC EVO 3D] Neo3D:
I think the reason why all the new HTC phones have broken compatibility with older bluetooth 2.x cars is because they are using a broken BlueZ bluetooth stack:

http://www.bluez.org/

However, does anyone know how to update to the latest stack? To be honest I am pretty clueless about any of this.

Is it just a matter of flashing the updated stack zip?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
interesting. i have never looked into this before. i'm not sure your technical skill level or level of motivation but here are some thoughts which come to mind as some starting points and possible ways to approach a solution.

i know AOSP keeps a git for bluez - http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/bluetooth/bluez.git;a=summary .

not sure which version is used on the evo3d. perhaps poking around in /system, should be able to find a version number.

in *theory*, assuming the latest version of the bluetooth stack supports the bluetooth hardware in our evo 3d, you should be able to grab the latest bluetooth stack for linux and using a cross compiler toolchain (provided in AOSP prebuilt) produce the binaries for the arm cpu inside the evo 3d ...

i've never done anything with the bluetooth stack before but hopefully that helps fill in a few gaps. keep us updated!

I have 4 apps that I either use all the time or use to help me with my career in one way or another. When I view them from within Manage Applications (in Settings menu), none of them give me the option to move them to my external 16GB card (ie the "Move to SD card" button is grayed-out).

The apps are causing my phone to respond extremely slow, and I can't even open emails using the native Email app, as I get errors stating that I don't have enough internal memory available.

To get the phone to work, I've been having to continually remove and reinstall these applications that I need, as I need them.

Is there a way I can move my apps to my SD card even though the option is grayed-out? If not, are there any other ways to keep using my much-needed apps, yet alleviate the internal memory issues they're causing?
