[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_whiz:
mirceani and all,

One thing that has not been mentioned is which version of recovery you will be left with. I recently flashed back to a stock GB ROM coming from a custom (Darky's) and I've been stuck with 3e Recovery. That means I have been unable to flash additional utilities to my phone, such as ROM Manager. I am not all that new to flashing but for some reason I cannot find a modded 3e or a method to get back to 2e for my Captivate on KF1. At least, I cannot find a method that has worked.

That may all sound like just more Greek to you but if you once you enter the world of flashing you will find that there are many improvements that can be made to your phone which will require flashing of apps - such as getting an improved GPS performance.

If anyone has suggestions on this then please let me/us know.

Cheers,

g_whiz
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
G_whiz ROM manager is useless.

To get cwm you need to flash a custom kernel in Odin that has it baked in already such as cognition.beta 2 kernel, or my fellow collective members kernel, the boog kernel the latter is for kh3 though not kf1...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_whiz:
Thanks, studacris.

Is there any issue with replacing KF1 with KH3? I had gotten tired of all the kernal and ROM mix and match so have now been trying to stay as close to stock as possible. I saw the boog kernal but just had been trying to avoid the Odin route (no particular reason for the avoidance).

g_whiz
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
If you're gonna stay stock I would jump firmwares to kh3 also, its 2.3.4 as opposed to 2.3.3 of kf1, heard its much better, more stable and whatnot.

Idk from personal experience though as I stick to building and testing mosaic, which is an I9000 based ROM.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_whiz:
Thanks. Actually, the reason I went back to stock was to see if I could get some decent performance sticking with I897 ROMs. Just getting back to the basics for a while and try out some the new official GB for a while to see how much it has improved since I left way back on 2.1. Speed was never really an issue for me and since being on KF1 I'm still happy with the performance. Flashing is a hard habit to quit, though ;)

I'll go the KH3 route. I really appreciate your input.

Best regards,

g_whiz

Since you say you're familiar with flashing, could you please help me with my question here?

Should I follow the steps included in Cesar's post, with Przekret ' stock (which is what I want to use, but he did not give step by step instructions for novices like me)

What about those corrupted files for fugu root?

Thank you
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Those instructions should be ok: put files in correct slot in Odin, flash.

As for corrupted files, poop happens try and redownload it
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_whiz:
noob quesiton that I shouldn't have to ask. Using Odin, does the .tar file go under "phone", "pda" or "csc"?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
They are all .tar files. except fit the .pit.

Depends on what you're flashing, most things go in pda
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_whiz:
Sorry, I meant for the KH3 kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Then yeah pda
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
Do you have to remove the SIM card when you do this upgrade?

thx
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
you don't HAVE to, but then again it couldn't hurt...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
I decided finally to go ahead - looks like it was a BAAD decision

Please HELP

I tried to load the GB Bootloaders first, as described here in Cesar's post

I started the phone in download mode, started the Odin One Click , pressed start

Here's what I get :

<ID:0/004> added !!

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5

Check MD5...Do not unplug cable

Please wait

Leave CS

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

File analysis

Setup Connection

And that's it, nothing else, for 20 minutes so far

What shall I do next?

Thanks fopr any help
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
You should always open ODIN first, the connect your phone in download mode
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
Thank you

It worked

Now next step

wish me good luck
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
Confused again, sorry...

Following up Cesar's thread to upgrade to 2.3.4

I am supposed to do a factory reset first

The picture he shows does NOT match what I see on my phone

My available options are :

reboot system now

reinstall packages

delete all user data

delete cache date

format internal sd-card

that's all, nothing like what Cesar says:

wipe data/factory reset

which one of my 5 options closely matches what Cesar says?

thank you

can I skip this and go directly to odin ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
So, after loading the GB bootloaders (looks like that went through) , the phone does NOT go into download mode anymore (Vol up + Vol down + Insert USB cable)

Tried several times, nothing . Other than that the phone seems to be ok

Please help guys...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Take out the battery, open Odin, insert cable, hold volume buttons, pop battery in while still holding the volume buttons.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
did that, it worked

Ran Odin, apparently finished ok. with a PASS messege on the upper left corner

The phone rebooted

Got the ATT animation, than the Samsung S galaxy screen, and that's all folks

It is stuck at that screen with the S flashing...

More help needed..

Thank you

I probably over reacted...

It looks like it works

Keep you posted
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
OK

You guys are the greatest, thank you

I am on Firmware 2.3.4

Basebabd I897UCKH3

Aparently some aplications are messed up, but I will go to the bottom of it...

Probably last step is to get root back, right?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
Everything on my Captivate running GB 2.3.4 seems to be perfect, except one major thing:

I do NOT have 3g connectivity

Setup looks ok, so what shall I do now?

Thank you
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Try a different I897 modem
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
modem ?

I am saying that if I turn wi-fi off, my phone has NO data connectivity

In setup under Mobile Networks I have:

Use packet data - checked

Data roaming - unchecked

Acces point Names - nothing

Network operators - if I choose "Select a network operator" , takes me to a new screen with "Default Setup" kind of greyed out.

That's all in my network setup

Any ideas?

It helped, now I have the 3g back
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
After testing my phone over the weekend , running the new GB 2.3.4 I decided today to go with the last step - rooting.

I followed the Fugu method described here, Odin 3 with the 2 files, zimage -root and then kernelKF1.

The post indicated that it should work

In my case it didn't.

I did see the fish logo after the first file

After finishing, the phone does not start normally but goes into a loop trying to start

At the top screen it says "Media scanner running"

Than I see a white screen for a spliut seccond and it loops at the same, never ending and never really finishing starting this process.

What shall I do

Thank you

IF I remember KH3 is GB 2.3.4 not KF1, so find the KH3 stock kernel
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
KF1 is 2.3.3 KH3 is 2.3.4 KI1 and KI2 is 2.3.5 fyi

Boog has Kernels with cwm for KH3, KI1 and KI2. For 2.3.3 look for Design Gear's Cognition 5 step 2 kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirceani:
As I said previously, I am not familiar with this stuff, so I have to ask:

What is "Boog" (unless it's a member on this forum )?

What is "cwm" ?

And since I'm running 2.3.4 I guess second part of your answer does NLT apply, correct?

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holeindalip:
Cwm is clockwork mod and if you dont know what that is do not flash anything to your phone and read the.stickies first.

Hello,

I definitely prefer VLINGO for accuracy over google voice dialing. However I want to go quickly from pressing the button on my headset to placing a call. When the integrated vlingo on the ET4G starts it tells me how many missed calls I have. I don't care about that. I'd like to just say call Mary Smith at work and getting her on the line. How do I disable the notification part of VLINGO?

Thanks

Frankly clearing all the missed calls is pain on this phone - I'd rather leave them there and just not have VLINGO tell me about them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
In case there is no way, is there a way to set your missed calls to auto delete after 24 hours so I don't have to do it manually?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] delfin2003:
don't know, I've noticed that too, called Samsung and submitted a bug report. That's retarded!!! Their QA sucks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Thanks - I submitted a request to them this morning for the same thing!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Any word back? I sent them an email and they said they don't support any third party apps even if they are integrated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sockey:
I can't even figure out how to delete the missed call notification. How do you do it. I am tired of hearing I have two missed calls and no way to delete them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
You'll see your missed calls at the top - red phone under an arrow. Slide your notications down and you can click on missed calls. Go to menu and then delete - you can delete a group that way with the check at the top. I'm thinking an app that cleared them might help - if it ran every night at midnight.

[LG Optimus 3D] Farhang:
All of them are pretty identical to be honest with you but...

Where's PeterKing's KingDroid ROM on the list?

This one I mean:

http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=247038

[LG Optimus 3D] mohicanrat:
OMG...i miss. :eek:

ok, i will update :) thank's for correction

but..i cannot edit this vote. :(

i'm so sorry for peterking. i miss your rom.
[LG Optimus 3D] precsmo:
non at the moment, I'm not gonna vote this. Don't get me wrong and please do not flame me, it is not at all about the developers, I appreciate the developers as everyone does and I thank to everyone for the great custom roms. It is the LG Stock 2.2 roms that suck big time and all roms are based on them at the moment. With the experience with other Android phone, this expensive so called high end phone don't deserve a ****ty rom. I'm only putting up hope with the upcoming official gingerbread rom, probably only then I will get more answer if this phone deserve as a keeper. And from then on, hope Cyanogenmond will have everything 3Ds working.

I'm totally pissed of with the phone due to the rom in many ways.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

BTW, my previous old WM6.5 HTC HD2 with ported Cyanogenmod works way better than this LG phone at the moment. What the ****! really!
[LG Optimus 3D] whouwit510:
I fill the same with ^^^^there are to many lg custom roms I'm ready to sale this puppy
[LG Optimus 3D] wencel:
Am using the Stock rom. it has everything I need .

I only

installed root

and did few modifications of some files

to improve a bit the JPEG compression (now my pics are round 1,5MB - was about 0,9-1MB)

and video bitrate (about 9-15Mbps - 10sec/15MB - was about 10sec/10MB).

Thats all i need and this works great, has a nice default font and everything is running fine.
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhang:
I`m totally agree with you.

Current custom ROMs are great and I really appreciate what Devs are doing but the ROM's are basically the Stock ROM without some of LG's apps and a few build.prob tweaks and a different theme.

You can still see some Stock LG in their ROMs. For example, none of them has managed to fully remove LG's Social+ cause you can still see it in Setting>Accounts & Sync even though they removed the Widget.

My only hope was CyanogenMod but the current one is waaaay too unstable and buggy.

I kinda regret selling my old Xperia X10. It had a huge amount of amazing ROMs to choose from.

Oh well...
[LG Optimus 3D] smackdownn:
right now the stock rom or thiaiz rom which uses the stock kernel is good.every other rom i used makes me sick...feels like my old captivate was faster even having a single core..i suggest everyone just stay on the stock and use some tweaks till GB is out..then maybe we can see some hope!

if it wasnt for the 3d stuff i would have never bought this phone!! i would have gone for sgs2!!
[LG Optimus 3D] ThiaiZ:
Hi mate.I'm comming from HTC Desire and SGS2. Every single ROM in boths forums looks the same.Stock,cyanogen or MIUI(chinese cyanogen copy) based with build.prop and themes tweaks.What you guys expect HTC Sense running on O3D ? What they have that we dont is custom Kernel and GB, and we have 3D + 3D converter.But I agree LG did a big mistacke with Froyo and that can cost them a lot.
[LG Optimus 3D] smackdownn:
ya..when i think about the price i paid for the phone and todays date and in the same time i open the about screen in the phone and looking at "android version 2.2" makes me feel like ****!!!!!! seriously i feel so angry, but i cant do anything!! i think everyone feels the same!! is there something we can do about this?
[LG Optimus 3D] wencel:
So you're angry just because it says 2.2? I can tell you how to make the info about say eg. 3.9.9 if you'd like :-) Be happy that the stock rom is stable without any troubles. My opinion is to better have not the newest version but the one which is stable, and this is what LG did - its stable, not crashing, compatible with all official apps. I had many smartphones and its not that common that a stock offical rom runs so smooth as 10D made by LG, believe me.

And, the update to 2.3 will be released during October, so you dont need to wait such long to get rid of 2.2 the official way :-)
[LG Optimus 3D] mohicanrat:
Gingerbread will be release on oct

I bought it for the 3d video recording. 2 complaints though:

1. poor bluetooth stack (my iControlPad would be a perfect fit for Mario64 in 3D) and

2. the audio quality on the video recording is appalling. I hope GB fixes this (or a custom rom! :)

I would be happy to contribute very generously to any dev that can fulfil my 2 gripes.
[LG Optimus 3D] vilks:
Im happy with my stock rom. What i need is everything the same as are (the same launcher,3d space) everything as stock, just would be good to have rooted phone and better video photo quality, of course faster is better too. but its fast enough for me after htc wildfire :D so does whis forum has what i need?
[LG Optimus 3D] stefankorun:
Sry for going offtopic, but what is the player included in this ROM's pictures?
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhang:
It's the MIUI's default Player which is included in the ROM by PeterKing.
[LG Optimus 3D] mohicanrat:
anybody use v10j ? share please... :)
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhang:
I flashed the stock V10j (Australian one) and I don't know why but it was slow and laggy. so I went back to King3D v1.8 for now until ThiaiZ release v.1.3 of his ROM.

On the positive note, the Converter app was cool but when you convert a game to 3D, it became a little laggy. (The ROM had Angry Birds Rio by default. When converted to 3D, it wasn't very smooth but it was awesome nonetheless)

I didn't notice any other changes compare to V10e.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian-UK:
Did you reset user data or do a full recovery from the recovery menu? If you do a full recovery from the menu the unit will start up just like the first time you powered it on. Use the same google account for both devices and any apps that are capable will be synched to both devices.

You might try installing the current release version for 3.1 which is version 1.0.28 I believe. You can get it by going to the android market web site (access this from your tabs browser and not from a pc the pc won't find the app) and searching for android market.

I know some users have reported that the 3.1.5 is working on some tabs I may be wrong but I was under the impression that initially at least this was a phone release and not a tab release.

If you're really struggling you could flash one of the stock roms over at http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p7510.htm but make sure you use the right country/Language version.
