Alright Ive Been Thru Many Sites and its Killing Me... I Followed Step By step instructions and even Updated The Drivers. Downloaded PDANET / 2.3 SDK/ Google USB Drivers And All Is updated. Saved Android SDK into my C Drive the whole shabang

-first step I Get Is Turn Off Phone into Recovery where im to leave alone.

-second step i open Command Prompt and typed In

>cd c:\Android-SDK\Tools [Enter]

>Android-SDK\Tools >Fastboot Device

[Bunch Of Codes Come out]

>Android-SDK\Tools > Fastboot oem Unlock

(Waiting On Device)

=_= It Just Stays Stuck There And Nothing Else... What Am i Missing?

=[ Help Please
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you should do it in the FASTBOOT mode instead of in the recovery.

and this should be posted in Q&A, not in Development.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bedalus:
Don't post questions in the Development section.

What you want to do is power off your phone, then hold the volume up button and also the power button until you see what is called the "Fastboot menu"

Do not proceed to Recovery. Instead, proceed to your second step.

On your phone you then use your volume buttons to select Unlock, press power button to confirm, your phone will now be unlocked.

UPDATE: ok, ive figured out part of the problem so maybe a solution will be easier. After experimenting, iheld down my menu key and it opened the keybrd, hitting the speak button initiate my call for as long as i talk, once i stop it tries searching and does its job. SO, there is a problem between the voice recognizer initiating when it should turn on....or something like that.

could not find ANYTHING in my settings that would turn this on permanently.

ideas? thx

hey guys, first time poster long time reader.

huge fan of what everyones been doing here so maybe i can get help cause ive been unable to find any solution.

PROBLEM: In car bluetooth handsfree communication for PHONECALLS only, competely not working.

Ok, so i have had my telus htc hero for 2 years now, everything worked fine on stock 1.5 and upgrd 2.1

once i started having trouble with memory and no a2sd, i bit the bullet and flashed CM6.1 and loved it, but thats when my BT trouble began. ever since then, it hasnt worked. It will pair, connect and if i receive a call the music(which works fine) will pause and the phone will ring, but when i answer it.. complete silence from both ends.

I flashed CM7.0.0(maybe 7.0.1?) beta3, thinking it would solve the problem and no luck.

After several weeks of searching i came across ELELINUX last night, read the changelogs and it said BT worked fine. so i flashed 7.1.0 RC1 v3.1 to find the exact same problem persisted.

I am out of ideas and threads to read...if ANYONE has a suggestion they think will work, i am all ears.

Thx so much for any help and sorry for my long first post.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbiggs31183:
Sounds like trouble with the roms bluetooth stack. I'd test a stock rom and see if that solves the problem. If it does, its probably the roms you're using.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattprime86:
Hmm ok. I just assumed that since the build said "Bluetooth working", that it would! Lol

But ok thanks man, I guess I just search for that with "stock hero rom" right?

Ill give it a whirl and see what's up. I wish someone knew of a working 2.2 Rom for hero, sheesh

167 views and no solutions and you call yourselves developers....shame!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gerbetta33:
Calm down, just because your problem still exists, doesn't make it our fault, or our responsibility. If anything, its your responsibility. If you want it fixed, contact the developer of the rom. If that doesn't work, try developing a fix yourself, and see the time, skill and patience it takes. Until then, quit raging against the hardworking fellows here and let us move on to bigger things. If you truly want bluetooth, you can always unroot and go back to stock to fix your problem. Beggars can't be choosers.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeraj15:
Everyone says the camera quality is one of the best features of the galaxy s but I think its pretty terrible. All pictures took look dark and don't look clear when you zoom in. Who else thinks the camera is poor on this phone
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hanafubuki:
can't confirm that. As long as there is a good light, the pictures will turn out great. Compared to other 5mpx shooters I really like the Galaxy S one.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hofinho:
Yep i also like the quality in comparison to other 5mp cams. what suxx is that there is no led flash, but i think we all knew that before bying this phone ;)

Btw did you adjust settings to fine and perhaps enable stabilization mode?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
and i do not recognize sgs1 5mpx camera as good - as said especialy when it is not much light pictures comes gradient - it is ok but still should perform better

i do not recal such on my goof old lost nokia n95 with its optics

same as with gps here ;) looks like sgs1 was assembled from som low cost parts overall

that is why i am sceptic on sgs2 (tested it few times) and looking formward to 3rd revision of samsung look onsmartphone for masses =)

(sgs got gps chip not broadcom bot lirf or something like this that performs way better but camera still records/pics gradient in dark)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeraj15:
How do I enable stabilisation mode and adjust to fine?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] belayson:
I heard the cm7 camera quality is worse than stock, have you noticed that?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xpcomputers:
Are you viewing the pictures on the phone in gallery? Or in another app on your phone? Or on your computer?

The reason this is important is that when using gallery app, our phones only loads a half resolution version image (to make it easier and snappier to handle)! You can download other image viewer apps in the market that view the full resolution on phone and therefore allow better zooming in to the resulting images.

Also the pictures therefore look better on the computer too, as this also using the full resolution on the image.

So, your problem might be more the gallery app at fault rather than the camera itself. Do some tests of your own to see if this is true.

I am no expert on this topic, but I remember reading this somewhere, and my tests confirm it appears to be true! (YMMV!)

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Geryatrix:
I'm sure that you must have some of the settings wrong on the camera App, because I have loaded pics to my computer, cropped the unwanted portion and printed on A4 paper. The resulting print was as good as I ever get with any 5mp camera.

I have also sent both pictures and video to my 55" TV screen from my SGS, using Allshare, and the quality is on a par with HD TV.

I agree that you get more versatility with a dedicated camera, but you've got to remember that the SGS is a phone with a camera as an accessory, not a camera that makes phone calls.

Finally, why do people complain about the lack of LED flash, at best, it's only useful up to a metre, but we all knew that the SGS did not have LED camera flash before we bought the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
i remember my good old nokia n95 making pictures same quality - and that was 3mpx
[Galaxy S I9000 General] seeraj15:
What settings should I have then?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
restere defaults in settings =) and you might want to add picture stabilization
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hofinho:
N95 had 5mp dude ;) i also had this phone and pics were really good, but anyway pics taken outside while its sunny with galaxy s show even better results in my opinion
[Galaxy S I9000 General] $omator:
it was 5? hehe well anyways pictures were much better, especialy while not much lights, sgs got some gradient clearly seen while n95 was just dark

It's good enough for me. Just make sure you are on 5mpx my phone likes to go back to 0.3mpx for some reason. oh and you should at least be on 2.2, heard that produces better pictures:D
[Atrix 4G General] vsanzbajo:
I called ATT and gave me my unlock code for my Motorola Atrix. I used a Tmobile sim card, entered the code. And it said Network unlocked successful. So do I need to enter the code every time I use a non-ATT sim or it is unlocked forever?

And if I do an update, would it still be unlocked, or would I need to re-enter the code.

You can be rooted and still receive an update, correct? I know you would lose root privledges, but I am trying to remember if I had to unroot or not.

I'm not able to get the update either (which is basically all I should be writing in this post), but I'm going to just attribute that to my flashing the tbh all in one back to froyo.
[Droid 2 General] JDunc:
I think you need to be unrooted and have all stock apps.

[Droid 2 General] jfriend33:
I'm rooted, and the update downloaded by itself. Of course, the only way I'm gonna install it is when a version of cm7 GB is out that has amazing battery life.

[Acer Iconia A500] farazjk:
Hi,

I updated my A500 from 3.1 stock to Taboonay 2.0 HC 3.2. For some reason I decided to revert back to HC 3.1 Stock but in trying to do so I messed up and lost both CWM and Root Access. Now I can still boot into Taboonay 2.0 HC3.2 but I cannot access CWM and I cannot flash any other ROM as I do not have Root Access. Also due to lack of Root Access I cannot install CWM.

Can someone please help me regain control of my device??? Please!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] jm77:

Same problem at my end...

Acer recovery needs "root" access....superuser can be seen in the list of apps but it is denying permission to all apps despite setting "allow" to all apps on default!

What to do?

Tried iconia root....."denied root access"

Tried Acer recovery....."needs root access"

CMW can't be booted into as somehow it is not there!

Tried factory data reset......no change in problem!

??

Help/suggestions needed!
[Acer Iconia A500] farazjk:
Erica's Cure Worked for me!!! :)

Ok after taking advice from Erica, I downloaded the official full ROM package from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1159443 and extracted the update.zip from it and placed it in the root of my external sd card. Switched off the A500 and rebooted it pressing Vol (down) & Power button till white text appeared in top left corner of the screen. A500 then started updating and successfully completed the full ROM install. On completing A500 automatically rebooted and all is good now. I am now on Stock A500 ROM HC3.1. I have not rooted or installed Acer Recovery app yet. I am going to wait for the official HC 3.2 from Acer Malaysia which I think is due on 10th September.

Thank you everyone on this amazing forum for helping fix this issue for me. Hope this solution also works for others having similar issues. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] farazjk:
Additional steps to the last procedure

Ok... Last procedure though restored my A500 to Stock HC3.1 but was not allowing the OTA updates. So I copied update.zip from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113878. (you must ensure that you download the ROM that is specifically for your device region... mine is Thailand).

I repeated the same procedure as I did before (see last post). After installation completed, and device rebooted. I checked for new updates (from settings menu / About Tablet / Updates). Voila!!! new updates were detected and are downloading now. These are not HC3.2 updates but HC3.1 update patches.

Cheers!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistStlkr:
I run linux on my computer so I don't/can't have Kies running. What exactly does Kies control on the handset side? Is it possible to kill Kies on the handset or some other way to stop that MTP Application "Press the home key to quit Samsung Kies" from popping up every time I stick my phone in the cradle?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
If you don't have any use for Kies, you can safely enable USB debugging found in: Settings -> Applictions --> Development --> USB debugging, which will stop Kies automatically popping up on the handset.

If you want rid of it after that, it's perfectly safe to freeze/uninstall the kies related APKs.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistStlkr:
Brilliant. Sorry, that has likely been asked a million times. I think I'll keep the APKs installed, I do have kies running in a VM for the occasional backup, but no need to see that stupid screen every time I charge when it doesn't do anything unless I specifically want it to. Cheers!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistStlkr:
Less brilliant than previously thought. That stops the MTP screen from coming up but also breaks push gmail for some odd reason.

[edit]

I access gmail through the exchange server method so it pushes messages. When I enabled USB debugging, messages stopped getting pushed. disabling the debugging fixed the problem. I find it very odd that the two would be related, especially while not plugged in, but that does seem to be the issue.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikeny:
Just got the GT 10.1 2 days ago, have been doing a lot of reading on this forum. I have a couple questions that I think some f you would have quick answers.

1. About ADW launcher EX, it appears many recommend this as a replacement the stock home screen. My question is, what would happen to the stock home screen (existing icons, widegets) after ADW is installed? What happens when you uninstall ADW?

2. About rooting, this is a tough one, after reading hours on this forum and other website. There seemed to be many different guides out there, linking different files needed to be downloaded and executed. Also, it's not clear which is applicable to the latest firmwire with touchwiz and honeycomb 3.1.

I only want to root to get access to /system/app and install some widgets. That is, not interested in custom rom. In fact I want to keep mine as stock as possible, so I won't have problem with the next OTA firmware update.

Any suggestions guys?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericmd:
1. if you uninstall adw it will just revert back to stock. you can have both and switch from time to time by just doing "clear defaults" on the "launch by default" in the app settings.

2. first post in the development area by Lorddeff07 is updated regularly. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1171089
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stardate Tab 10.1:
Do not have any worries about adw. You don't even have to set adw as your default launcher, so that everytime you hit the home key you will be given the option of which launcher you want to use. I personally could never go back to stock launcher after adw.

As far as rooting, I would read more about it and watch some YouTube videos before you attempt that. If your apprehensive to something like a launcher I don't think your ready to be messing around with rooting the tab just yet. I am debating to root myself just so I can have a black taskbar on touchwiz. If it wasn't for the grey taskbar I don't think I ever would really need to root.
