If you are still rooted and all, just for safety's sake, make sure to do another nandroid backup and save it to your micro sdcard. Backup, backup, backup. Then also make sure that you have a compatible cwm recovery installed, that will let you access your microsd card. It sounds like you're alright, so, cool.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hwolf77:
Is anyone experiencing random reboots with your phone. It will either just flat out reboot, or the signal meter gets an X then the media scanner function and comes back to normal.

I read on the international GSII's that you wedge a piece of paper in the battery compartment to stop movement or the RAM is bad.

Please any thoughts or advice?

:eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] stickbo:
Not at all. I would try a factory reset and if that doesn't fix it return that thing. Good luck
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dxtra:
My first phone had the same problem. Return it get a new one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bkeaver:
I would try a factory reset first before returning it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Reboot all the way to the GalaxyS II screen, or back to the bootanimation?

The two are VERY different.

No problems here, even with an experimental kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kezell:
No reboots on mine as of yet...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] clayn123:
Had that problme

Had the same problem, took it back the second day and got a different phone. Works fine since.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hwolf77:
Ugggg....

Thank you everyone for the advice. I took the phone back and got a new one. No reboots.....which is great. However, now there is like screen burn in (similar to plasma tvs).....only noticeable with bright white or dark grey screens like when you open the market app and the grey screen appears in the background. Its like a huge discolored grey band right through the middle of the screen. Guess I will take this one back for #3......if this doesnt work Im gonna get something else...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:
i guess I should consider myself lucky that my phone is flawless
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze599:
Hi

I ran an RUU that installed the 1.32.405.3 Froyo ROM which I assumed would be able to be temprooted (so I could turn s-on and return for warranty purposes) but the temproot just keeps running for a very long time until I finally cancel it myself but pressing the back button. The Visionary version I am using is R14.

How can I fix this?

I still have the PD98IMG.zip that is used for downgrading. Can I flash that through the bootloader by simply putting it on my SD card?

Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raze599:
Now I am trying the downgrade method again to get it to 1.32.405.6. Will report back how it goes.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
If for some reason Visionary+ doesn't work, try a factory reset. It solves 9/10 issues.

I know flashing the RUU factory resets your phone, but a manual reset should solve your problem.
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
hey guys. Long story short, i had my first captivate for almost more than a year, rooted it and had all the fun with it. Then, the screen cracked, i used my insurance and got a new captivate. But, after 3 months of being super busy... I figured id rather just send the new (unrooted, uncracked) captivate back, get my refund, and go back to using my old captivate, that is already rooted has all my contacts and so on. Now....as i said its been quite a while, so i am definitely rusty. First question is that i remember that since i was rooted i was able to download apk files and install them onto my phone when it waas plugged into my pc. I definitely remember using a program and having to restart the phone and apply changes or something like that. But, i don't remember the name of the program nor how i am actually suppose to do it. Also if someone can point me in the right direction and tell me what update and what not i am supposed to be on. My captivate is just rooted with a lag fix i believe. Yet, its still really slow and laggy, even overclocked... So im hoping that the new updates will be more efficient; in being fast without taking up all my battery. in my "about phone" it reads:

firmware: 2.1 update 1

kernel version 2.6.29

atin@thor#voodoo_lagfix_3.0_v1.10

Build number: ECLAIR

sorry for being so ignorant. Its just that it has been a while, and i don't want to start off my current rooting experience on the wrong foot.
[Captivate General] pickupman66:
are you referring to "quickboot" for easy rebooting? you may also want to look into Autokiller memory to help kill the junk. I also used ryan's OCLF.

I like you ran a rooted captivate for the longest time. it worked decently but then I tried to go to Gingerbread. MISTAKE. it was laggy bad and very unstable (Used Cezar's ROM). I didnt like it. Flashed back to the 2.2 rom (supposedly stock) and it was terrible compared to how it was. lots of lag and just overall... YUCK.

so yesterday I got the guts to flash a custom rom. I was mad at the phone so I flipped thru several flavors and ended up putting the Phoenix Ultimate (JS7) on it. HOLY S**t Balls mom!!! it was super fast, extremely responsive and worked like a dream. took me a little while to do it, (I had to flash to 2.1 (you are there), root it, cyanogenmod, then Phoenix) but it is SOOOO worth it. super fast now. my wife is asking me to do hers...ugh...

also, all the animations, graphics and just in general. it feels like I got a brand new phone. I could not be happier
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
thanks for the reply. Haha sounds like you have an iphone status phone now ;) that's what im shooting for; something fast and reliable. Im going to wait and see what the majority of people like on they're captivates. So i am waiting on standby until i know exactly what and how to do it. And no, the program i believe was only on my computer. i would plug in my phone, drop in the apk file.,remove the phone, and do that recovery mode reboot thing on my phone so that the application i just dropped in installs. Sorry if what im saying doesn't make sense like I've said its been a while -.-
[Captivate General] studacris:
the program you are thinking of is the sideload wonder machine

and yes you are on a very outdated version of android, 2.1 (eclair) there has been an official update to 2.2 (froyo) and also many leaks of 2.3.x(gingerbread) but nothing officially from at&t since froyo.

noone can really tell you what you will like best, you will have to do what the rest of us do and read, read, read, then read a bit more, flash a few to try and pick what you like the best....
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
thank you! it was SWM.

NOW

what is MIUI, cm7 and pinnacle? custom flashes or something? i am also running my current root with launcher pro. Most of everyone on this thread seem happy with their setup as far as smoothness,responsiveness, and battery life go, which is exactly what i want!
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
MIUI/CM7 are AOSP versions if 2.3.x,aka gingerbread. Pinnacle is a leaked version of Gingerbread, made for the captivate by Samsung.
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
so gingerbread is the way to go? or rather should i say 2.3.. how hard is it for me to upgrade to 2.3 i noticed that some apps aren't even available to me in the market on 2.1. but still i want the features that 2.3 has. Besides just updating to a version of gingerbread, what are the other common things people do for anti-lag/responsiveness, while still being conservative on the battery aspect.Thanks for all the help so far guys!!! :)
[Captivate General] pickupman66:
I wasn't pleased with the gingerbread as of yet. It will get better I'm sure of it. Try out one of the 2.2 based roms as they are the most stable at this point.

Sent from my Phoenix JS7 run Samsung Captivate
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
so what do i do? Just get one of the 2.2's that a developer on here made? that way it has pre made fixes and stuff like lagfix already in it correct? how do i go about installing that and from where?
[Captivate General] pickupman66:

after looking that over, I followed this one:

and had chosen the Phoenix ROM.
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
thannks but im still comopletly clueless. What exactly is it that i have to do. I know where to find the .zip rom files, but what is a kernel to a ROM? I really dont get it. does the ROM include the build like 2.2 or 2.3 or what not?
[Captivate General] joonair:
just out of curiosity, do you have AT&T captivate or rogers?
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
what is Rogers?

Yes. I have AT&T samsung captivate
[Captivate General] pickupman66:
Rogers is a rom version. You are on stock but rooted. The second link has very easy step by step instructions. The rom u get will have all u need including the kernel and modems

1. Back up ur data with titanium backup. If u don't have it, check market.

2. Flash ur phone with Odin

3. One the flash is done to stock do a master clear with Odin (your phone is on, plugged in and USB debugging)

4. Install the root per directions

5. Copy clockwork and the rom. Of ur choice to ur internal zip

6. Install the clockwork recovery (you run it twice back to back)

7. Run the new rom install with clockwork

I. Phone boots to new rom.

First time it takes about an hour. MAKE SURE YOU READ THE DIRCTIONS IN MY PREVIOUS POST.
[Captivate General] studacris:
^^Rogers isn't a ROM version. It's a Canadian cell service provider...
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
thanks for clearing that up. Had no idea what Rogers was lol. Ok so, i guess i just download and install a ROM of my liking? that will also update me to froyo or 2.3 as well? any recommedations as for as ROMS go?
[Captivate General] pickupman66:
I stand corrected. The rom will upgrade you to what it is based on. The one I use is froyo based. There are gingerbread roms too. Mosaic seems to be a popular one as was Phoenix that I am running. Best advice.. go read those threads. Look at screenshots they have and the user feedback
[Captivate General] Psychemage:
Personally, I'm a huge fan of DesignGears' roms. I'd suggest you go with something like Cognition 5v2. Its 2.3.3, very stable, very fast, and, since you've only used stocks rom up 'til now, it'll be very familiar (minus all the bloatware). He's also got a step by step guide on how to install the rom. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1127578
[Captivate General] nismoasfuh:
i was trying to get to use that ROM^^ buuut i had to go to rooted 2.3 first. used this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1127249&page=31

then i hit a problem, i posted on that thread as well still waiting for a response. idk what happened to my phone...this is my post on that thread "ok so i did this and i hit a problem. I got up to the red fish, i turned off the phone to get it into download mode again. and i did, Placed the kernelKF1.tar file in the pda slot and hit start on odin my phone reboots and right after the AT&t logo my screen goes crazy. it looks as if my screen is tripping on acid... and it just keep looping att logo then that.

Oh, OK. I hope you fix them soon.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] szpoq:
dont work, after install stucked at bootscreen. both versions(fastboot,recovery)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
Are you sure you did everything correctly? Because I'm sure it works because I'm using it at the moment.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
got my buttons working should be ok to just flash without wiping data from rc5 right?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
Yeah, I think it's compatible.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] flea18:
blank the rom and fantastic but I have two problems a hard battery little only a day two I connect the charge battery and I telephone is ignited
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
I don't understand. I have a great battery life with this ROM.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] androidboss7:
Is this rom fast and snappy???

how much free ram on average???
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
It's fast, though there aren't many tweaks applied. I have 45 - 60 MB free ram on average.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hardspace:
That is issue with mur4ik rom i have same problem on CM7
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] flea18:
as it can be resolved then because it is ignited connecting it all' local p0wer source
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hardspace:
will be resolved with CM RC3 stable version copy boot.img of RC3 and go to fastboot use this command: fastboot flash boot boot.img i don't tested this rom but this will fix issue
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] flea18:
then we wait for that the rc3 exits
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hardspace:
you don't understand just download Swiftroid version RC3 and get only boot.img and then reflash your rom with that boot this is stable kernel and will fix that issue
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] flea18:
sorry but I do not know English I am Italian with a translator, where I Swiftroid version RC3 I have to send it through fastboot

ok sent with rc3 rc5 not lit now I feel I know
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] andreas__:
?? sorry I can't understand that.

maybe the others can i don't know..
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] flea18:
sent rc5 works ok
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] epiteto:
Great Rom ! Good Job !

Couple of days of perfect use...then market stuck on "Loading" while syncro work endless ( only wi fi ,never used data connection ) . It can be caused by Rom ?

@flea18

Ciao , hardspace ha detto che devi scaricare quella ROM ,metterla nella cartella sdk , come tutte le volte che si flasha da fastboot, e limitarti a dare solo il comando che ti ha suggerito. Per quel che ho seguito ho capito che in questo modo cambi solo il boot,credo sia questo quello che ti serve alla fine....
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] koolxs:
Hi Despotovsky and thanks for the rom. Please put a workin/not working log.

BT headsets work? Because with Mur4ik's RC5 it didnt, at least with my phone, although I did a clean flash (wipe etc).

Can I try flashing this rom over my RC5 that I have now? You said probably "yes" but has any1 tried this?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] eoghan2t7:
this rom is a softmod of mur4iks rom so what ever works/not working in mur4iks rom is the same for this rom.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
Hi! I don't think there's a need for a working/not working list because this is a soft-mod and everythink that works on Mur4ik's latest release of SwiftDroid works on this ROM. Yes, you can flash this ROM over RC5 because this ROM is based on SwiftDroid RC5. You may try cleaning the cache and dalvik-cache though.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] davidoliveira.pt:
Hello Everyone! I have installed this rom in my LG gt540 and i think it is a great rom!

The battery life is great and everything works almost perfectly!

Im just having two problems.

The first one and more important, is that when the phone reaches 60% of battery life, it shuts down by itself. It seems to happen again when it reaches 40 and 30%. The rest of the time it doesn't show this problem.

Can anyone help me with this?

another problem that i'm having is with c:geo app. Everytime i try to acess, or view a cache, the app is ended , that it stopped unexpectedly.

any help?

Thanks everyone!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] michaelbolland:
cannot flash the file multiverse_r2_signed.zip

i don't understand this zip file - it has no img file in it for system like the r1 version it just has a boot.img and a folder

what am i supposed to do? it says the usual flastboot method but normally i do flast boot and flash system

Can you help?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
Well, flash it via recovery. It's an update.zip file for recovery, that's why there is a boot.img and some folders.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
Hi. I'm glad you like this rom! I haven't had the problems that you've mentioned but try this:

Reboot in recovery mode and erase the user data. That might solve your problem.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] davidoliveira.pt:
Thanks! the c:geo problem seems to be solved...now i have to see about the shutting down issue.

Hi everyone!

I still have the battery issue. When it drops to 30-40% the phone shuts down automatically and randomly.

Any help with this?

cheers!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] jhonnyx1000:
Have you calibrated your battery? You can do it on recovery (I think it's Advanced --> Clear Battery Stats) or you can find a Battery Calibration app on the market and do it.

i tried R2 because i couldn't use fastboot !! :)

and its awesome!!

i like the boot animation and the themes.

One problem is that because of the launchers i don't get enough

ram.. but thats alright!!
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
can you remove all the other theme chooser themes so that i dont need to choose it manually?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
I don't know if I can delete the stock theme chooser theme. I've already deleted cyanbread and androidian in the first release.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
In R3, I replaced GO Launcher with LauncherPro. I think it's better. I also didn't have much ram available. At the moment I'm testing DevSwift's Oxygen ROM and it'd very fast and stable. Maybe I will base R4 on that rom. The only drawback is, it doesn't have theme chooser.
