[Verizon Droid Charge] aliensquale:
I am sooo frustrated I just can't keep reading anymore posts.. wasted 5 hours today reading this forum and just keep getting more confused the more I read...

I am an IT Tech by profession and I have never seen such confusing posts about how to do this... everybody seems to post a different way to Root your phone, etc..

I am desperately looking for something to give me a easy to follow guide on how to do this... I have a STOCK Droid Charge.. never did any rooting, etc... I just have the phone all setup with the apps I want, etc.... the only thing I don't like is that the phone is SLOW.. I want to speed it up and increase battery life it at all possible..

so anyhow.. I understand I need to get root access... I read about all the CWR programs, Odin, etc... I just don't know the exact sequence of things to do and how to do them..

I want to put on the GummyCharged 2.0 RC1.5 ROM..

on a side note.. I also have a Viewsonic G-Tablet.. that I put CM7 on... it was easy as cake.. so much more straightforward... this Samsung phone is a real pain in the ass to do the same thing...
[Verizon Droid Charge] BlazinDANDAMAN:
I was confused at first after how difficult rooting htc phones are...but all u need to do is have odin and the drivers...flash a rooted odin rom...then flash cwr...then u can flash cwr roms from recovery...really simple.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
ok here is the easy way to get where you want to go.

Download the Gummy rom from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1261265

place it on the sd card

use odin to install CWM from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1112804

do not reboot into the OS, upon restart go directly into CWM. choose to install a zip from SDcard and choose the gummy rom you placed there before. when the install is done, so are you. You should have the OS you want.
[Verizon Droid Charge] aliensquale:
Okay.. I did what you say below but I did one extra step..

I did ODIN to CWM..... booted into CWM... but what I did next was install the PeanutButta Jelly Time kernel... from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1104634

I installed the Voodoo with lagfix version... rebotted the phone.. heard that electronic girls voice.. finally got into the regular OS just like the phone was previsosly. My next step was to install Titanium Backup and backup all my apps/data, etc. BEFORE I did a new ROM. Well I run Titanium Backup free and it says that it can NOT get root.. so I am not sure why? I checked my phone info and it says that I had the Kernel I just installed loaded.. so not sure why my phone did NOT have root in terms of Titanium backup?

So then I said the hell with titanium backup.. I am just going to go for the ROM... so I rebooted my phone into CWM.. I choose the GummyCharged 2.0 RC1.5 ROM from the SD card... it installed in like 1 minute.. then I rebotted the phone.. now the phone has been stuck at the 'Samsung' black screen for the last 20 minutes... what did I do wrong?

one thing I missed... before installing the Gummy rom I forgot to: Select "wipe data/factory reset" in CWM... could that be what is causing my phone to hang at the 'Samsung' screen?... how do I fix it?

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 PM ----------

okay I just pulled the battery... then went back into CWM... did the wipe all data... then reinstalled the Gummy mod... rebooted.. now I'm into GummyCharged 2.0 RC1.5 !!!!

now I HOPE that I can run Titanium backup and it works...
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
Gummy comes with a kernel, so you overwrote PBJT when you flashed the ROM. Yeah you have to wipe whenever you flash a ROM or it could cause some crazy stuff
[Verizon Droid Charge] Engreeks1:
The GummyCharged link above mentions it's recommended that you install EP1W radios. What happens if we don't?

Do I need to install the sd card fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1118111

Also do I need to do anything with voodoo lagfix?

Lastly, will enterprise exchange email still work? My company uses the Good application http://www.good.com/products/good-for-enterprise.php

I'm hoping this will still work! Thanks!

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
My brother has had his Shift for over a month now and just recently it stopped making/receiving calls and texts.

The first day he got it, I rooted it (it had 2.2), put CM7 on it, and x99 kernel. This is the same setup my Shift, and my friend's Shift have.

Whenever he tries to make a call it says "Your authentication code could not be verified"

Should I hard reset this, call Sprint, un-root, or what?

Thanks.

PS: I rebooted it, and had it shut off for 30min before turning it back on. Should I do a battery pull? That would be slightly tricky since he has the Otter Box case on it.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
You don't have to unroot. Just flash a Sense based Rom. Update your Profile and PRL. Then flash back to CM7. Don't Nand back when your done updating your PRL and Profile. That will just put you back where you were.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
Now when I flash a Sense ROM, I need to wipe the data and cache right? Update the stuff, then flash CM7, gapps, and kernel right?

Just wanna make sure.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
Correct.. Do a full wipe, data/cache/dalvik (can't hurt to do it multiple times) Flash a Sense ROM and update PRL and Profile. Wipe EVERYTHING again and flash CM7, gapps and kernel.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
Ok. So I downloaded the lastest Mik ROM

Wiped the data and cache. Used CWM to install Mik from the SD card.

Updated the Profile and the PRL.

Made a call to my Shift, rung once then gave me the same "Your authentication code could not be verified message again."

What do I need to do?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
While your still on a Sense ROM, call Sprint and have them refresh your device.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
Yeah that's what I'm doing now.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevowanj:

Sent from my Speedy with the XDA app

---------- Post added at 01:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

Well it's just one problem after another.

Text and calls work again. I wiped data and cache, then flashed the ROM, gapps, and the kernel.

But now the Wifi is broken...

Clicking on it just says Error.

Now what?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
What ROM and Kernel are you using? Also, try rebooting and see if you still get the error with WiFi
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doratheconquistadora:
CM 7.0.3.1 and x99.

The same one my phone is using, and the one he was using before. I rebooted and it still just says Error.

I'm going to wipe data/cache, reflash the ROM. Reboot. Wipe cache and flash gapps. Reboot. Wipe cache and flash kernel. Reboot.

That should work then right?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crump84:
That should work, just when you do a full wipe the first time it's best to wipe a few times. Also, I usually let my ROM settle in just a bit before I flash a custom kernel.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koolkid09:
This happened to me a couple of days ago. i was running Cyclonic 1.1. Here are the steps I did to fix it.

1. Made a Backup.

2. Wiped everything (except sd of course).

3. Flashed a sense rom.

4. Chatted with sprint and they fixed it.

5. Then wiped everything again.

6. And finally restored my ROM.

And everything is working fine now.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illaparatzo:
Is this the same as the "error 16" issue? My sister got a new shift about a week ago, I downgraded, rooted and flashed it to cm7 right away, and it was fine for a couple of days before not letting her call or text, just saying "error 16".

I called sprint, they did something on their end, then it worked for six hours before doing the same thing. I called them again, tech support said he forced a refresh on all the servers the previous tech hadn't, then it was fine again for a day before getting the same issue. Third call, fixed for twelve hours. During the second call I flashed to mikshifted, wiping everything very well beforehand, updated the profile and prl before sprint fixed it and I went back to cm7.

The fourth call fixed it again, but broke 3g data. Phone failed with error 16 again today and the lady at sprint, upon being told that it was running CM7 said that until I put the stock rom back on, it's going to keep having the same problem. I don't think that's right, or no one else would be able to run an aftermarket room. Any ideas, people?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VICODAN:
Just flash the latest nightly.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illaparatzo:
Mystery solved on my error 16 issue, anyway. Turns out when I flashed the froyo engineering build downgrading from 2.3 to be able to root, I didn't realize it downgraded the radios. My super smart boyfriend figured it out, and newer radio has no problem now keeping authenticated with Sprint.

e: never mind, it worked for about two and a half days and then error 16'd repeatedly again. Flashed to x99's stock rom, we'll see what happens there.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] plmiller0905:
I've had a lot of phones and sold a lot as well. Just recently selling my Photon so that I can grab the Epic Touch. This phone is amazing, but everytime I go to a forum it's always a posts complaining of screen colors, data speeds, screen size etc.

I'm so tired of this stuff it's ridiculous. True this phone has some some flaws like the inability to connect to the media hub right now, but that's minor and I'm sure it'll get fixed. But the threads where people is posting the issues that I stated above, have been talked about forever. And for the complaining of the screen size, everyone knew how big the phone was before it was released and some people even had the chance to play with the phone before actually buying the phone and they still bought it, only to complain later that it's too big or to complain about a another minor issue. Hell, it's even been reviews posted all over youtube from various people. and people still bought the phone...wtf.

As for the data issue, I'm suer people is coming from other devices on sprint, so the data speeds shouldnt be a suprise. In addition, Sprint is working on numerous towers so this could affecting the data speeds.

Then people are complaining about screen color and all that stuff. It takes a very bored person that has nothing to do in life to do than to look and stare at phone screens just to find out the white aren't white, the black colors aren't black enought etc. These are phones...not computers, not Plasma TV's.

All in all, it seem to me that a lot of people is just looking to find something wrong with this phone. It's like they hating on the phone. It's a great phone so people should just deal with it. I know everybody have their own opinions and its cool. But if you go to Evo forums, the Epic Forums..any sprint android phone forum, its the same threads everywhere...data speeds, screen colors...etc.

Lets stop it all and just enjoy this beast of a phone....

Sorry for the rant

Yeah...you're right ..a 20 month decision. But within that 20 month decison and since this will be a 2 year agreement for most of us, did research and watched reviews of the Galaxy S II before we made the final decison.

It's similiar to buying a car. You do research on it before you go out and buy it.

I totally agree with you. I'm giving you a "thanks" for that one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
as was already said compared to what the E3D forum went through this is so mild as to have not even registered on my radar whatsoever. I know there have been a few "this one thing isn't perfect" or "this thing is broken on mine" posts and threads...but...not the onslaught of complaints, valid or not, that you make it seem like. I have not even given it a thought. I also expect them to die down in the next few weeks. Go check in on the E3D forum for a few hours, you'd think the phone came out 12 hours ago from the looks of things, 3 months later.

The phone just came out, frankly it seems like the least bugs and complaints I've ever seen on a rollout of such an anticipated phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] plmiller0905:
lol...Having owned the OG Evo and the Evo 3D, I already know about the Evo forums.

Yeah, I haven't noticed that many bugs with this phone either. I talked my cousin into exchanging his photon for one today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] justwonder:
But those comlaints help people research better than those review sites.

Before I bought EVO 3D, I knew exactly what flaws the phone has, because of people complaining, you wouldn't find that in those review website.

So let people complaining, it would help other decide it's a deal breaker or not...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rockky:
OP: Dude its not ridiculous....that's what forums are for.

Don't tell other people they're ridiculous when they "complain" about things they're frustrated with or don't understand cause THATS what ruins forums.

Think I said this but that's what forums are for.

There are and will be solutions to improve a lot of what you think are ridiculous complaints.

Just don't go to those threads if you can't offer something constructive...no worries.
