[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattRussNC:
hopefully somebody can shed some light on something for me. I had just started fresh, sd card and all. I flashed PWGB v2.0b3 with pit. I was in the process of reinstalling my apps all fresh from market, sdcard was wiped so no titanium restores. I noticed the alert sound like i had received a email and noticed a file was downloading itself with the name of qqsecure2.2.0(something something) with alot of chinese characters. The icon beside the file being downloaded looked similar to a sun if i remember right. I have a list of the apps i was restoring but have no idea how far down the list i was at. Again all apps were from the market. I know some malware apps exist but i was under the impression you had to go out of your way to catch one. If i were a betting man i would say that this was innocent and normal but it kinda freaked me out as the phone is rooted and i do banking on it occasionally.

Simple searches didn't yield any results for me on xda and nothing in english on google. Anyone have any idea if this was known and good or is my immediate shutting down and reflashing warrented?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enyo.:
Though it does sound weird. To be safe, try to re-flash it or just go to MIUI. I know and have talked to a English dev from that team. And they have a background service that prevents anything from accessing the data partition
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattRussNC:
id love to go with miui or cm but im afraid that i need absolute stablilty and fear such roms cant offer it at this time. by no means am i knocking those roms but i cant have any surprises at all so i shy away from those roms. the whole reason i was starting back fresh was occasional hipups with the TKSGB kern on my particular device.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattRussNC:
After having it happen again I happened to be paying more attention and noticed that a app was to blame. Greek mythology is the offender. I installed lookout before redownloading and for what its worth it let the app pass right through. I'm pretty certain thats the app responsible and its still on the market. Just surprised because I hadn't heard of any trojans on the us market.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
My wife and I had Motorola XT720s and her USB borked out the other day. Our carrier replaced hers with a Vibrant and sent her on her way. Needless to say, she liked the XT720 and wants me to take the Vibrant. Since we have been on the most unholy of manufacturers (locked bootloader and no updates-yep was sold and bought on 2.1 [eclair kernal] over a year ago) I have been maintaining both our phones. We have successfully upgraded our phones to 2.2, miui, CM6/7 all with the locked bootloader and a little erseverance and a lot of adb learning.

My question is what can I do with the Vibrant and what are the better ROMs that you have? I am not affraid to get into the guts of the phone and work from that way. She just got it yesterday and when I got home, she pitched the switch to me, so this weekend, I'll root it, back up and then checkout the forums to see what is what.

Good ROMs/ Kernals (stability v experimental)?

Overclocking?

How to unlock the bootloader? I kow how on Nexus S but that is not this obviously.

Known issues with the phone in general, either software or hardware (i.e power button breaks after 2 mos. Stuff like that)

I already looked at the sticky nOOb guide for rooting. Is that update.zip the best way. Or should I use z4 or Superoneclick? I used Universal Androot before but that doesn't support Froyo kernals.

Basically, what do you like and and your opinions. The decision will be mine but I like to be informed. And I actually do like to read the threads, but we just got this yesterday and wanted to put out the feelers.

Thanks to all for your help and I look forward to the responses.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
first, if your hardware locked, youre gonna havr to find the thread on how to unlock... do this FIRST.

We have several roms, they range from stable to fast and unstable

Imo, that would be froyo like bionix to cm7 respectively.. cm7 flys but its batt sucks and gps is practicallu nonexistant (not that good iin froyo tho)

There is oc up to like 1.7ghz tho my phone doesnt do more than 1.6 stable...

Also, never use kies under any circumstance and learn to use odin Well.

Thats my advice... welcome

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
That's great. Just the sort of thing I am looking for.

Couple of questions.

As far as OC. Is that an app or is it through a differnt kernal. I know that some kernals oc and undervolt or stock cpu and undervolt. There is an app in the market that was for Motorola that was called Milestone Overclock (I know real original right) and with that and SetCPU was able to oc my 550mhz to 1100. Is there a Vibrant app similar?

How do I tell if my hardware is locked? Once I know, then I will search the threads for that. I already saw some in here with regards to how to do it. I already got into stock recovery last night just to check and see if I could (have't put CWR in or rooted yet-will do that later on tonight). Does this mean it isn't HWL or am I completely missing the target?

Odin I assume is what RSDlite is to Motorola. You power up to bootloader, connect to PC and flash "stock" sbf files (which is basically what came in the box). I always like to have that on hand just in case. I'll google and check it out.

Thanks for the info and glad to be here.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreggoryD502:
Read the noob stockier guide. Has all the info you need. Also in the development section down load the aio vibrant toolbox. Has Odin, all the files you need. I recommend the rom bi winning V3. It has a kernel that can overclock. You need an app for that tho. I like set CPU because it has profile management for off screen, charging etc.. good luck.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreggoryD502:
To tell if your hardware locked turn your phone off and hold down both volume rockers and press the power button when you see the vibrant logo pop up, keep holding untilled it goes away then pops up again. Then let go of the power. It should boot into recovery mode. It will be black screen with blue letters that say reboot phone, reinstall packages, wipe data. It may take a few times to get the hang of it. If your unable to then your phones is hardware locked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
Okay, youce been in recov so youre not hw locked.... greggory, you only have to hold power button till you see anything oon the screen the first time... holding it after that just makes it hw reboot whivh works, but is a waste of time.

Okay OP, odin has some nice ffeatures that let you flash bootloaders and firmware both.. truthfully, you can flash ANY rewritable media in your phone except internal and external sd from.odin afaik.

Oc requires an oc kernel and an oc app... app for ocing include voltage control, which was made for samsung galaxy s, set cpu, which i dislike, cpu master, no-frills ... all of em work most of the time and i use Voltage control..

Am i forgetting tto address anything?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Ok so I've been using for a few days & I have to say the I really like this phone. Rooted and installed CWR lickity-split. Want to mess around and get more comfortable with surroundings, but have a few questions.

I dl'd Tegrak OC and am using it just fine. Any suggestions on stock kernal settings. Not applying any ROMs/Kernals for now, but setting suggestions would be helpful.

Got USB connection loop. Think I have a fix for that. Need to test some more.

Do I really have to name it update.zip to make "it" work, or can I name it anything else. Tried a few other names and they don't seem to install. Update.zip v buttermilkbiscuit.zip. why?

Does zipthemer work on this phone and do I have to name it Update.zip to make it work?

To change fonts, where do I put ttf? In settings there is a font changer, but where is the folder for that. Know it isn't /system/fonts BC that is a global changer but can't find it anywhere else. Looked in /data, /android and /sdcard. Clues?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
Ok i think you should flash rom an kernel it takes phone to another an you do have to name it update.zip that is what recovery looks for an that is how custom one is installed i dont know what zip themer is but if u mean apply thme with zip then yes u can
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
I'll flash soon enough, just want to get my feet wet a bit. Only had phone for two days, so still picking and searching. More suggestions on ROMs/kernals, other than above?

Zipthemer is sweet. It takes all unzipped Metamorph.xmls, packages into one .zip and also creates and undo.zip too. Great themer.

There is a font changer in settings, but where is the folder to put the ttf file? /system/font is global, but looked in /data and /android and can't figure where to put it.

Just doing some house cleaning in my account and found this thread. It was my first thread in the Vibrant fora, just 5 short months ago.

Seems like so long ago. Have learned so much since then. Some have gone and some are still here, but I love this phone and the community that supports it.

Lol ... I couldn't resist! Just had to take a peak here - esp. seeing Woody's name and "New to the phone" in the title!! :what:

Woodman ...

The Vibrant fora wouldn't be the same experience without your participation, brother. Your ICS Guide thread (and our extensive GB BL discussion ... lol) originally inspired me to take the ICS leap (as well build the nerve to finally register and participate in threads here - ie. I was a long time "lurker"). Haven't looked back since. :D

Thanks for your efforts to ensuring all our Vibrant experiences stay ... well ... "Vibrant"! ;)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
That is funny. I just went back a re-read that thread. There is some good Q and A in there about all types of scenarios. Alot of familiar names too that have moved up in the ranks of experience as well.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosup:
Haha ... I just did the same. That thread could have been called, "Everything you wanted to know about ICS ... but weren't afraid to ask." Hilarious. :D

I'm not sure what wasn't discussed. We hit all the corners including some homescreen screenshots as icing on the cake. Great (re)read! :p

This was fun to read, seeing Wood just entering the Vibrant community. The new guy on the block. Now look at you, you're one of the most recognized Vibrant users.

I remember my first post on XDA. I was messing around with Rom Manager and accidentally installed CWR. You wouldn't believe how much I was panicking, I thought I had bricked my phone! Lol, shows how much I knew.

Actually, that's why my name is "N00B_IN_N33D", because I was a noob who was in need of help. After I figured out how to Odin back to stock, which removed the (what I thought was) evil CWR I thought I wouldn't mess with my phone anymore. However s15274n talked me into flashing a custom froyo rom, Trigger, if I remember correctly. From there I blossomed in my understanding of Android and my Vibrant...

Anyhow, back on topic. It's amazing how experienced people have become here. :)

The Woodman deserves his due "respect" (but you have to say it the way AliG would to get the full effect). True Zen-like patience and an extremely rare dedication to help people. He's good peoples. No doubt! ;)

Speaking of the way-back machine ... I can't even remember what Froyo was like. Do you? Then there's Eclair (yikes!). :what: I do remember the jump from Froyo to GB was pretty substantial. CM7 with those novel toggle bars and major speed boosts. Then ICS just took the phone to another level.

I remember the first time I rooted my phone, I was soooo damn nervous that I'd end up with a brick. I was just using SuperOneClick ... lol. The first time using Odin after reading all the horror stories here. The first time waiting through the VLF EXT4 conversion (seemed to take forever).

Been a fun ride. :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
The first time I flashed a Froyo Voodoo kernel, I was in my basement watching a west coast baseball game and it was late. The wife and kids were asleep and like you said, it took forever. Forgot to turn the volume off when I did it. So I am sitting there watching the game and I see the Bali palm tree. I think cool, whatever. I return to the game and out of nowhere, I hear this lady's voice. Thought it must have been the parabolic on TV picking up some lady in the stands. Then I hear it again. Kind of freaked me out until I realized it was LINDA. I'll tell ya, if you are ready for her, she'll freak you the f**k out.

Anyways, thanks for the kind words. I remember one of the many freak out, panic sessions I've had in the past and there was always someone who helped me out. Just feel it is my duty to give back. Now if I can solve this Encryption Error bug, I'll have come full circle. It is driving me nuts.

I remember one of my first threads back in 2009

It was a fake Hero ROM for G1

I bashed on two devs and everyone was pissed at me....then when I moved to the Vibrant I got a clean start
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
atleast your LINDA issue was panicked and gone.

I was in the bathroom taking a dump while the conversion went on... it freaked me out, and my mom thought i was watching porn in there -.-'

She then told this story at our family reunion... Almost died of embarrassment

So I unrooted my phone and went to the market place to download root checker, said my phone was unrooted. When i load up into bootloader, its not the stock one that came with the phone, it's still says Revolutionary ontop? Is this a problem? trying to bring the phone back in for warranty issue. I used this guide which removed root and put me on stock then i tried the second have and when flashing the PG05IMG_hboot_1.4..... it just said bypassed and made me reboot.

You can't just flash another bootloader over a Revolutionary bootloader. It's been patched specifically to prevent that. You need to do it through fastboot. It's a bit more complicated. I believe I have a link in my Q&A thread that will get you on the right track.

Ok I just got a white evo 3d as my back up phone and I want to root it. Ive been looking at the development page at all the (how to root) forums and It looks like the 1.50 cant be rooted right now. So i wanted to know...

1. Is it true that the 1.50 is not rootable at the moment?

2. I work at a sprint repair center if I flash one of the older shooter softwares will that make it say 1.3 or 1.4, and eventually allow me to root?

3. Is there anyone trying to develop a root solution for the 1.50?

This is pretty much my questions for now any answers are greatly appreciated, Im currently on a Nexus S and im staying on it untill Iget the 3d rooted so I can at least use wifi tether.
[HTC EVO 3D] propagandax:
1. Search around, there is a way but you can only load roms using fastboot and some dos trickery, its a pain right now

2.Yes, I would do this if you can, the 1.4 root is easier IMO.

3. Like I said there is one its just not the optimum solution yet.

Hi all. I recently bought a D-Link DIR-615, which supports 802.11n up to 300Mbps wireless speed. After setting it up, it is running 11n only mode and my laptops can connect to it without any issue. However, when I try to connect my Milestone 2 to it, it can succesfully connect to the router but I cannot access the Internet. I tried to set the router to 11n & 11g mode and it's still not working. Only if I set the router to 11g only mode the phone can connect to the Internet flawlessly.

Doesn't Milestone 2 support 802.11n according to its spec?
