Wow, that's extraordinarily similar to the process I had to use to root my Epic4G WAY back in Nov of 2010. Those were scary times.

I remember that while I was doing this my Epic went black and unresponsive, and it took me several hours to get it working again. I felt faint and was shaking the whole time.

From that point on I always told friends who wanted to root- it's not really any fun until you think that you've bricked your phone a couple of times.

Samsung gem i100

I recently got a samsung gem i100. Biggest problem with it was it didn't have the new version of google play (market) on it. I like installing programs from the website, not typing away looking for the right app on my phone. So I installed APK installer, and upgraded the os from 2.1 to 2.2. Which did kill google market.. However I have a different phone and on that phone I have an app called APK extractor(the phone is rooted) I extracted he newest version of google play and uploaded it to the Gem. Google play works fine so far... The 3g data isn't working but the phone is for my kid and Verizon charges for data now. It works ok, but would like the 3g data to work again.any ideas? (The only data it has is wifi. I wonder if it is a setting somewhere, I wouldn't mind throwing on a new os if there was one I could find so long as it was compatible.)

Samsung gem i100

I was hoping someone on here had a unmodified Samsung gem i100 from Verizon so they could use super one click on it and root it then back up the rom, and share it because I broke mine by updating it to 2.2... (the rom for Verizon is 2.1, but 2.2 is for US cellular and Alltel) I downloaded the source code from Samsung in a long shot attempt to repackage it so it will make the data work on the gem again. I think the problem with 2.2 lies in the drivers for the board. If I can fix that then 2.2 should work for Verizon. Although I have no idea what I'm doing I have downloaded Oracle VM VirtualBox, and setup what I need for Android kitchen so I can run the current rom from there and hopefully make the changes...

The other project I'm working on is to find out why the game Temple Run 2 will run on a Droid 4 but not a Droid 1, and if there is a way to modify the Droid 1 so it can run it. My kids like the game, but I don't want them using my phone to play it all the time...

Any pointers would be great. I don't look forward to teaching myself how to write programs but it seems that is my only option...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Are you aware that this is the Epic 4G (with keyboard) forum?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffreyjicha:
Also. The Droid 1 has an armv6 processor and the Droid 4 has an armv7 processor. So in order for the game to play on the Droid 1, you'd need to find someone who knows how to port games from armv7 to armv6.

I've gotten the cyan Helix boot animation working on my Tab, but only takes up about 85% of the screen.

If someone can figure out how to get to go full screen, please let me knowl :)

Steps I used to install:

1) Put bootanimation.zip into the platform-tools directory of the SDK.

2) Push the .zip using ADB

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/

3) reboot
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] laxanoulis1:
on my device it is 100% on the screen man, but it doesnt finish the whole animation when i boot my device, it boots very fast! :P

Remade at correct resolution

Hi all,

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I've gone ahead and ported that Blue Helix boot animation to the Tab's native resolution, plus now there's no EPIC 4G text anymore (thanks hymizzle!). The animation itself is limited a bit, so there is still a little cutoff from the original.

Anyway, here is is. To install, simply rename to bootanimation.zip, then either use adb or Root Explorer to drop it into /system/media/ and you should be right. If you need any others, drop me a PM and I'll try and get it for you.

Enjoy!

EDIT: Woops. bongski beat me to it. Oh well.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] agc93:
To edit a bootanimation, best results are if you simply extract the files to a working folder, make the necessary edits, then drop the files into the original zip using something like 7zip. This works pretty well for me, at least.

The hacks are incorporated into your system.img. If you back it up, they will be there. If you flash a nandroid, the tweaks will be there only if they were part of the nandroid image.

I just bought a Sidekick 4G for my wife. I have an HTC Sensation, so I was looking at this like a Porsche owner looking at a VW. Then I tried it out. I like this little phone! Its quick, the screen looks good, and the keyboard is really nice to use when texting. I'm glad I got it for her. I just need some help turning off the geotagging pictures options. I thought it was under the settings menu in the camera app, but I couldn't find it. It was easy to turn off on my Sensation and on the Optimus M that my wife had previously, but I couldn't figure out how to do it on this phone. Can someone help me out?

Push this Camera App (From KG2) to system/app and it'll overwrite your camera and allow you to disable geotagging. ofcourse you'll need to be rooted and push through adb or root explorer

if you guys dont plan on rooting that device you could always consider upgrading to KG2 if you want to be able to disable GPS

We just got the phone last weekend, so shouldn't it already have the update? Also, what are KG1 and KG2? I've got handset insurance, so I don't want to root the phone or flash the ROM because I don't want to void my warranty. Is there a way to do what I want and still keep the phone stock?

Thanks for your help,

Joe
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
if you root the phone then use the odin kg2 odin method it will unroot and make your phone to stock but also have the update!

kd1 and kg2 are firmware versions it was stock with kd1 but updated to kg2 to fix some bugs.

you should have kg2 already go into settings/about phone and look at your firmware verions if the last three letters/number are kg2 then you're updated!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ayoteddy:
^ what he said. and if you use the link i provided it will flash an unrooted 100% stock KG2 firmware. So you wont have to worry about your warranty. or you can root then push the KG2 camera... then if you ever have to send it back for some reason odin back to stock and you'll be fine.

the update comes over the air, most likely the phone will receive the update it may take a few days that's usually how it is. But using ODIN would leave you with the same results you'd be on the upgraded firmware, you can wait a few more days to see if it comes OTA though
