[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:
Simple:

1. Reboot or boot into recovery, to do that there are 2 ways:

a) if the phone is off press the home + power button and the clockwork/amon ra menu appears

b)if the phone is on long press the closing button and select reboot and after that recovery

2.when into recovery you can do more than just do backups and flash new software, you can mount ext partition, mount sd card and a lot of things like that:

-So go to mounts and storage and select the last option: mount usb storage:D

-after that copy the content to the sd card and unmount the sd card and try to flash the new rom...I recommend to do a full wipe (wipe data + wipe cache partition + wipe dalvik)

you can reflash the elelinux rom or you can flash OMFGB if you want a stock rom.

Keep me in touch of you have problems,

Stefan:):)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayfon:
last case :) ... i cant mount sd card ; Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 then i have open the phone on fastboot and write "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" reboot the phone normal mode and sd card is ok, i see my folders but still usb connection does not work in normal mode and i cannot access via adb
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:
ok, so if the sd card works now, it should work in clockworkmod also, so try flashing another rom;)

I had some problems with mounting my sd card from the phone and all i did was to flash another rom.

PS: what kernel do you use?

Stefan:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayfon:
i have over wifi explorer uploaded and flashed OMFGB and than elelinux 3.2 but usb connection still does not work, my kernel is now :2.6.29.6@HeroKernel-12a
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:
Flash the kernel from here ;) it's las venturax 0.6.2 and it works like a charm:D

Stefan:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayfon:
if this kernel fix the problem i will try it , thanks

Bluetooth problem

First of all: Thank you Elelinux for this fantastic ROM. It works like a charm and is the fastest ROM I have ever used with my Hero :D

However, I think there is a Bluetooth problem with v3.3

When I connect to my car's Bluetooth hansdfree (Parrot MKi9200) the connection drops after just a few seconds. In the Bluetooth settings menu (on the phone) I can see that Bluetooth is turned off and after a while it turns on again. It continues to connect and disconnect in an endless loop. A couple of times the phone has even rebooted.

I can connect to my laptop (with bluetooth) without problems (but I haven't tried to copy files or anything, just connected).

I tried to upgrade the radio drivers to v6.35.17.03, but no difference.

I also tried the Las_Venturax-0.6.2 kernel, still no change.

Then I tried the FlyKernel-13 Gingerbread but no success.

When I restored a backup of Elelinux-7.1.0-RC1-Hero-v3.2, the phone connects to the Parrot without any problems (Las_Venturax-0.6.2 and radio v6.35.17.03).

If you need any more info or need me to try anything just say so! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:
A logcat can help ele with this problem...i see that you tried a lot of things and it seems that it's a rom related problem

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fiden:
hey guys... i got a few questions...

Are the gingerbread roms nearly smooth now especially this one ?

Is there a big difference between the new 2.6.35 kernels (las venturas 0.6-0.62) and the flykernel 12 im using?...

Im currently on villainrom13 (flykernel12) i thought it was the best and smoothest combo on my phone, but a few days ago i founded this new kernels and roms and i was wondering whether it is worth a try to update to gingerbread or to the new kernels. So any experiences ?

Sorry for my english... im a german and its pretty late over here :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:
VR13 and flykernel13 i think it's a best option, because the 2.1 android version with sense 1.5 uses .29 kernel source, so it's the most stable as far as i know...

The .35 kernel has some cleaned code but has some problems with some roms; it depends what you what from your phone...:D...SalsaSense is GB and with sense 2.1 but it sill has some lag problems...

you can try whatever you want:D and suits you more;)

Stefan:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayfon:
I have try many custom rom's , vr13, omfg , ele's roms but still have usb connection problem :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stefpaul:

Stefan:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayfon:
of course i have tried with VR13 , my kernel is las ventura 0.6.2 , but with vr13 still same no usb connection and + no sd card :(

I am wanting to relock my bootloader. I have unlocked bootloader with CWM alien rom. I am returning my phone thus the need for relocking. Or is there a rom I can flash that will not have unlocked on motorola screen while it is booting.:confused:
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jason_Thames:
In the same place you found the unlock .sbf, you can find a file called "nopuddingforu.rar." This is the bootloader locker, follow the instructions EXACTLY on that page as to locking the phone again. Also, you can flash the MR5 .sbf if you want 100% stock. Be sure to do a factory reset before flashing back to stock.

ERROR MESSAGE FAILED TO BOOT 4....RELocking Bootloader

I flashed CM5 recovery, installed nopudding.rar via rsdlite...my phone reboots and I get FAIL on rsdlite. When I cut my phone on it is stuck on Motorola screen with Failed to boot 4 at top of screen and starting RSD mode below it...:eek:

when I boot into fastboot I get same thing failed to boot 4 and I have starting fastboot protocol support....:confused:

I didnt see the do factory reset before I flashed back to stock......
[Motorola Photon 4G] Thexfactor2011:
just flash the full MR5 .sbf with rsdlite
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrinehart93:
That should fix your problem. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but when you flash things with RSDLite you are flashing an actual partition image. The phone internal memory is broken up into multiple partitions, such as /system, /data, etc. When you flash the full MR5.sbf file, I believe it actually flashes all the partitions in the phone with the stock images.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rslawson:
Where is the full MD5 .sbf file located? I didnt see it in the pudding thread....

sorry MR5.sbf
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrinehart93:
Now that I realize it, I was actually seeing the full MR5.sbf WITH unlock... I can't seem to find one that is locked. Here is the one to the unlock though: http://mophoforum.com/the2dcour/pudding_stock.rar I imagine you could flash that and then flash the nopudding4u to relock it.

EDIT

Here is the nopudding4u file: http://diamantephoto.com/photon_nopudding4u.rar

It consists of only the locked bootloader. So flashing the full MR5.sbf (unlocked) will return your phone back to stock but with an unlocked bootloader. After you have flashed the full MR5, flash the nopudding4u file I linked so that it relocks the bootloader.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jason_Thames:
It's here in the developer forum. Look for the post from 8/11 about the "Final" sbf. Can't miss it. Good luck!
[Motorola Photon 4G] rslawson:
I was thinking I could flash the unlock again and then flash the lock....
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrinehart93:
That's what I told you in the post you quoted :p
[Motorola Photon 4G] Djspinister:
Yea, this should not be told to people, because as far as I know you HAVE to have the original recovery and as far as I know we have no zip or img file of it currently. So telling people to flash this will only cause problems.

Also, if you flash the full MR5 you do not need to flash the nopudding4u file because you just flashed the complete MR5 file. Meaning you just flashed the whole img file of the phone, meaning that the original recovery is there and it already relocked your phone. The nopudding4u was suppose to just make it so you don't have to flash the MR5, just the small file, so it doesn't take much time. But it wasn't really made clear that you need to have the original recovery, or how to get said recovery.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tekanan:
I'm an avid whatsapp user on my Galaxy S. However, everytime I send/receive whatsapp messages, the phone just lags badly, even up to a point where I can't even type anything. Besides making the phone lag in general (have trouble opening up pics, etc), sometimes it even crashes whatsapp itself! I notice that this only applies to whatsapp as if I have received text messages before while typing up another message and no lag was experienced.

This problem started when I first bought the phone at v2.1. I initially thought it was the firmware version and have since updated it to v2.2. Unfortunately, the problem still persist. I've been living with this lag for almost a year now and I have not reached the tipping point.

Can someone please help me solve this problem?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djice000:
Most carriers these days offer an unlimited text package whether on pay monthly or pay as you go so please excuse my arrogance but whatsapp is totally pointless, its just sucking up your data allowance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapper.fishes:
Oh yeah? Except some of us ain't as rich as you are and can't afford a monthly plan with unlimited text. Plus text messages only take up tiny amount of data usage. So why don't you take your mumble jumble elsewhere while the rest of us try to help a brother out.

I have been using whatsapp for a long time now. Never had a problem with it. Hate to suggest this, but have you tried doing a factory reset?

hey guy's

The new phone came, my shiny SGS. First thing i did was flash a custom rom and kernel.

I can not begin to describe what we have been missing while using our x10's. Now I have a used and am living with another phone that is by far and a way superior it just highlights what a poor job SE did with the x10, the SGS is nothing short of brilliant, even though it has a replacement out, there is loads of development on it and as long as you read you wont brick your phone.

rocking 2226 in quadrant and this is just my first rom and kernel mix.

Best advice I can give you guys still with your x10 is EBAY it while it is still worth something and get one of these SGS's if your stuck on a long contract you will not regret it I promise you !
[XPERIA X10 General] Prodigy:
Yeh i can get it here for 29$ a month, around 14.50 in the UK

Just that I would treat it properly, because after flashing all those custom things, i feel so sorry for my X10...

I'd much rather be noob and happy with what I got (stock), than unhappy and constantly flashing ROMs and finding flaws everywhere.

Which is why I run a self modified stock 2.3 firmware and slightly tweaked.

Phone has never been so happy before, battery is amazing (3 days on medium usage)

Will never leave stock. Screw custom ROMs.

Just my 2 cents and spaz attack lol.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logseman:
They may appear in the Running Services tab , but they're frozen, they're not taking ressources in that state. Killing them with a task killer causes them to respawn, and if the process is frequent (such as autokilling every 30 minutes) there is a cycle of constant kill-respawn which affects your battery life.

Yes,they do that alot dont they?

well,fear not,you dont need the task manager because its GOOD that your memory is free,it means your APPS will boot QUICKER! This true! it works differnetely than on windows,so you dont need a task killer,i dont use it anymore :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsswoosh:
You can root and delete them.

Or

You can try Android Assistant which can prevent programs from loading when you turn your phone on. Dont need root.

Either way, you should get android assistant. It is an excellent phone manager.

And oh yea, never use a task killer. When it kills an app, the phone will load it again, then task killer will kill it, then the phone will load it again, then task killer will kill it, etc etc etc in a never ending cycle of processor and battery wastage.
