Odin the program used to Flash, Kernels and its used to go back to stock.

and Froyo or Not i think E was just telling you to flash the GB kernel to get to Recovery(instead of messing with the system files) like he said its just a faster way of going about it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GreenAce92:
Indeed, probably less of a PITA as well.

Alright I'm going to have a read

Hopefully I'll catch up soon (few weeks not really sure about the learning curve)

As always, my thanks go out for the wealth of information :)

Another dumb question, does flashing mean similar to boot off of another source? Or is it the way it is loaded on, flash memory not NTFS or FAT32 etc... ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GreenAce92:
Gahh this is seriously making me flustered

This is my fourth infuse, first (original NIB) screen damaged, 2 Refurbes stolen, now the current refurb

I am trying to get 3e to work on here

Maybe I was just trying to believe in something that isnt true but I really believe that I had gotten the 3e to work via phone only

Now I can't get it to work

Is it even doable?

My procedure-

Downloaded 3e zip to downloads folder (phone memory)

Extract within same folder

Use terminal emulator (free) # sign is fixed on emulator

su (or su root tried both)

mount -o remount, rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3/system

tried mtdblock5 (from MD5)

tried system/bin

how do I know if I am currently in a rw mount?

How could I test?

After this I try to copy or move the recovery file from downloads folder to system/bin wjere another system recovery file is dated aug 4, 2011

I've tried multiple free file exlporers

Andro Zip

Astro

Super Manager

ES File Explorer (pretty)

File expert (crashes when I try to rename original recovery to recovery.orig)

What am I doing wrong? (Besides having a weak ass phone)

Btw what does it take to develop a virtual core?

Is it possible to get the Infuse up to 2.0+ Ghz?

So is it retarded for me to have tried to install the Infusion 1.8 zip through recovery as a ROM ? hahaha I just have the SAMSUNG logo fixed on the screen

Also I heard some weird robotic woman voice

"Systems Not Available"

"Convert Partition"

Oh looky! It's fine hehehe neat I have a girl friend now hahaha ;)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
I'm not sure what you mean...you can install infusion 1.8 through red recovery cwm once you have the proper setup.

The robotic woman voice is voodoo lag installation...you should be able to reboot into red recovery now and flash your ROM...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GreenAce92:
See I seem to keep stumbling around and not really understanding anything

So... first off

There is the sd card within the phone, then the external micro sd card right?

Also I did get to a red CWM and then also to a green, and then the blue ... the green seems to be the recovery for the i9000 which I used to get myself out of trouble

Thanks for linking the Root File Explorer, that is such a great program, it beats the other bs

I'm going to try and flash Bionix Infusion (only because of the infusion) I want that "1.5+Ghz speed"

Thanks for your help

How exactly do you bounce from one CWM to another or you don't?

When going into recovery by holding the three physical click buttons till SAMSUNG pops up and release

which recovery is this? I can't remember what color mine was

-----------------------------------------

In regards to my post above about the 1.5 speed

Installing infusion 1.8 (a small zip file) will change the kernel ?

I'm currently only after 3e recover and getting the kernel for 1.5ghz speed

-------------------------------------------

Just to be clear

once I have pasted the contents of the 3e zip folder (recovery file) into /system/bin

What is supposed to happen next? (what am I supposed to do)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] GreenAce92:
Gahhh finally it is done

I'm sorry for my exceeding lack of competence

I seem to be retarded in many ways hahaha

Anyways... the 3e Recovery is running and I have just installed the 1.8Zip through Red CWM

Just a note for myself and anybody else who may be as mentally inept as I

To get 3e Recovery

Download 3e Recovery Zip file to downloads folder

Download Root Explorer (through link)

Use the incredibly easy toggle r/w r/o buttons of Root Explorer to replace the old recovery file in /system/bin with new one (3e)

reboot

proceed to flash other roms / install zip files of various sorts

Just curious once the Infusion 1.8 zip was installed

Do I immediately notice the effects? ie a faster processor

Or are there more steps needed to be completed?

----- wait i see! Use antutu to overclock wow! Goes up to 1.8 !!! -----

Curious what is the min / max ?

Should I have min 100mhz max 1500mhz ? Or

min 1200mhz max 1500mhz ?

Now to create my dream theme
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeoran:
I updated my stock-rooted ec05 to eh17 recently just to try out gingerbread, but it kept rebooting on me, so I tried last night to go back to ec05. I had downloaded the latest odin, I already had drivers installed, I even had another ec05 zip file with cwm 3.1.0.1 built in, and I had dg27.tar as an old standby. After many, many, many, many, many attempts, I finally managed to get the right combination of pit, tar, cable and usb port to get the old dg27 installed. It seemed to work ok, but seemed a bit slow. I did an upgrade to the latest ec05 using the built-in update tools. It was a 99mb download/update and it went fine. Then I re-rooted it with cwm 3.02.5 and updated to 3.1.0.1, but the actual phone part is just crap. It boots up ok, but then just FREEZES. It doesn't matter if I have the sd card installed or not, I can barely launch programs, I couldn't even make a phone call...the PHONE app fc'd on me... wtf??? the PHONE app fc'd on me... I can't even use my smartPHONE as a PHONE!!!! And I'm getting completely fed up with how slow it is and how it fc's 98% of the time and takes 10x's longer to do anything even when it does work. Thing is, my internet connection is only 512kb/s downstream...yes, that's only 512KB/s...so I can't just go around downloading .tar files everywhere trying each one until i find one that works. Plus, I knew the official gingerbread release is just around the corner, so I wanted to be back to stock for it. But I can't get this damn thing working to save my life and it's pissing me off to no end...I've wiped the cache and davlik cache so many times, it's not even funny. I don't want to just do a factory reset, because I have 18,000 txt msgs that takes an hour to restore and I have visual voicemail that I use and have tons of those saved and that requires using root access to copy the folder where the data and audio files are stored in the root in order to back it up.... so it's a pain each time I want to start over...

Anyone have any bright ideas? please???

~Mark/Zeoran
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawrj:
I can't think of anything to do but reload. I would back up my sdcard. Wipe everything 3x. Reformat the sdcard. Install Deca's Deodexed EH17 twice in a row without rebooting and see if that works for you. I have been using it with no problems. If you are set on EC05 than Odin EC05 instead. I would not go to DG27 and then up to EC05. Just go straight to EC05.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malcolmXman:
@crawrj, I'm serious man, GB is shifting the partions around some how, and not getting fixed when going back to froyo.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
A lot of EH17 data is not compatible with EC05 that is why you are having so many FCs. A factory data reset is your best bet to get your stability back. Restore only data that you absolutely have to have. I had a buzzing in EG22 today from a EH17 downgrade that I couldn't find so did a reset myself today. But my phone is superfast and smooth again with no errors, so totally worth it. Restore your texts when you go to bed and will be done when you wake.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawrj:
Not sure what that could be. I went from EF02 back to EC05 without any problems. I went back to Gingerbread on EG22 and have been here since.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Its random when it errors out but when it does, it can be bad to the point of having to Odin. Sometimes flashing a Froyo ROM fresh fixes it but sometimes it doesn't. I can't explain why it doesn't happen every time but I have been flashing 2 to 3 ROMs a day the past week and about 25% of the time, if I don't Odin, it can't be resolved
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yup, something was changed in that EH17. I have to redo my email accounts rather than restore the accounts and data.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvinghost:
I been going back and forth between GB and Froya. everytime i go up and down i use odin. if you want to make sure that your phone goes back to the manufactory settings then you need to have (Phone EFS Clear) checked. that will bring back everything to the first day you bought your phone then you can start again with whatever you want.

as far as backup up the files, first root your phone and go to 4shared.com and download (my backup pro .apk) this will allow you to backup and restore everything you have at one shot.

i hope any of that help
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
If you wipe everything 3x, reflash a ROM and reboot, it will usually (but not always) eliminate the problem. Then wipe everything 3x and restore a nandroid. You should be good. If it doesn't work after a clean ROM install then Odin is necessary

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtjoker42:
I ran into a similar issue, went from EH06 back to my daily driver EC05 that I had a nandroid of. wound up having to wipe everything, do the full EC05 rom install, kernel flash, and then run the restore to get it to boot. Not sure what the deal there was, but still got it working.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
I recently jumped back to EC05, I just wiped 3x, flashed my ROM and then restored my APKs (never the data) brought back my call log, sms, mms, alarms and dictionary and have had no issues.

I tried, Bamboozle (EF02), Go Green (EG22), Osprey (EG22), Hawk v1 and 2 (EG22) and Vendetta (EH17)

I got tired of the rebooting in the leaks, I like being back to like 3-4 days on my ext battery with midNight 5.3 :)

Is Midnight EXT 4 based? I'm still on Stock EC05 RFS, but wondering if flashing the EH17 modem would be better...not all that impressed with the EC05 modem.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnCorleone:
Midnight is EXT4 based. Try different modems and see what worrks best for you.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:
This +1

For me the EH17 modem has been the best I have used... but as with everything YMMV!!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megabiteg:
I do agree that the EH17 modem is good, but the GB ROM that comes with it is broken. I got a lot of FC all over the place out of nowhere with the ROM. Since then, I've changed the ROM but kept the Modem and things are running much smoother.

GB leaks have many issues still and I think its still wrong to make them the everyday driver, in addition to that, we are not getting much benefit on having GB right now, many apps that were GB only are running perfectly fine on Froyo... My suggestion is, test the leaks if your feeling adventurous but expect issues.

[LG Thrill 4G] Trekfan422991:
we spent a few hours trying them all.. i finally have adb recognizeable in CWM..

so yes...

note: he is working on a new CWM specifically for our device... so if you want to wait.. the only thing that apparently doesnt work with the CWM we have now is update zips... so any mods to the system have to be pushed or manually copied and pasted with the device.. thats what i do...

you have to be really careful doing that.. not recommended.

At first I was seriously considering trading in my Revo for a Thunderbolt but decided against it after a couple weeks. I'm a big fan of the underdog and this phone has a lot of potential.

Makes me wonder what anyone was thinking. As I know it (and correct me if I am wrong), Bing is related to MS. These phones are running a Google OS. Google is Anti-MS and so it makes me wonder why anyone would put MS junk on to a Google/Android/Linux based phone...???

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mafiaboy01:
Hey guys, looking for advice on this tablet.

I was planing on getting a tablet to view class notes and take notes on.

I know that the pen is very accurate but I'm a little worried about the screen size, I've had a Galaxy Tab 7inch and i think that it would be a little small for taking notes.

And the other thing is the processor, I've had some issues on loading big pdf files on my Xoom tabletm how will this one fare with it?

Any advice would be great!!!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] RotasOpera:
It's great for taking notes! 7" inches is a fine size.

What I like about it is, that it has a black edge around the corners, so you can hold it without touching the screen
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mafiaboy01:
Do you used it for school? I mainly do math so writing recognition doesn't matter at all to me.

Can you take notes on PDFs?

Sent from Samsung Galaxy S2 on TELUS.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] iwansuryo:
You can use PDF viewer application for editing and saving notes in PDF format.

If you want to make long notes, the best way to do it is making blank word document (doc file) about ten pages with just typing enter. You can make it with Microsoft Word or Quick Office. And then you can start making notes with that document in Polaris Office. Polaris for Flyer cannot make new document, but works very good with magic pen, so you can get the most benefit from that.

If you don't want feel little bit laggy when scribing notes, you can flash your Flyer with Flyhigh custom ROM, which gives you extra speed, and make writing with magic pen just like writing with wacom tablet.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wozup12:
Hello guys,

Long time lurker, first time poster.

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S II which was shipped with VAUKF4 modem. The reception of the phone is fine but when I try to flash a custom rom reception goes out the window.

Even trying to flash non carrier branded kf4 firmware and custom roms such as villain and SensatioN the problems are still the same.

So I was wondering if:

1. I could extract the modem file of the VAUKF4 firmware and flash it with SensatioN rom

Or

2. Do something else to fix this problem

Thanks

[Motorola Droid Bionic] danman7:
Considering it uses the headphone cord as an antenna, I'm thinking no bluetooth, and the recording is pretty unlikely, too.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] smilepak:
I wonder what headphone will give good reception. The white apple earplug sucks as reception. In Orange County and can barely get any station without some major static. Like 102.7..so much static.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dbindock:
This is pretty awesome. I come from an OG Droid and it didn't have the FM option.

What I always thought would be cool would be if we could turn out phones into FM transmitters so we can play music from our phones in our cars. The iPod's have those adapters that can do this, but since we are Android users and not Apple, how sweet would it be if the phone could be the transmitter! I know, another piece of hardware to integrate... But if it can receive FM now, it might be able to transmit?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] 86shelby:
Nope, a receiver is not a transmitter. What you would need is a transceiver.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] trscons:
I like TuneIn, IMHO the best of the bunch. For the Clearchannel stations you will need iheartradio.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cbal04:
I googled "Bionic FM Radio" and turns out the same one from the droid 3 works. I also found I get reception indoors just from having the earbuds plugged in. I get 3 bars now vs no signal at all. I think it has something to do with the fm radio antenna being part of the processor or something.
