Long story short personal preference that's it. Some people love it the way it is. Some people love it but just want a little more. rooting gives them that extra access to make it better. If you get me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Zlatty:
I feel like a dummy ... clearly on the bottom it says Recovery CWM v#.##.... :rolleyes:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] myke66:
I rooted because i wanted to be able to install a custom kernel to be able to overclock to have the best gaming performance on the tablet. My original reason for getting it was to play Order & Chaos big screen.

Also the custom roms are almost always faster and take up less memory.

glad we could figure it out :P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Zlatty:
What do you have it clocked at?

Also HTC sense is such a BLOAT. New roms definitely help with the weight control.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
I've had this phone since the day it released and generally had no problems with it. But a couple months ago, I started having issues with the home screen loading the icons up every time I went to home. Random reboots for no reason, too. I read that it seemed to be a common issues for the phone, so I thought I'd wait for Gingerbread. But today the phone wasn't begin responsive when I tried to text, so I tried rebooting and now it's stuck on the endless reboot. It seems the only way to stop this is to get it to factory reset itself, but I'm hoping I don't have to do that because the phone did a factory reset by itself a month ago and I don't want to deal with starting over again. Is there another trick to it?

Maybe I'm better off getting it replaced. Are the newer models free of all these glitches or is it all still more or less a crapshoot with the problems I've had, screen bleeding, ect?

Just so it's out there, I rooted my phone with SuperOneClick, but I didn't flash or install any roms.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jjayno2003:
yea i would sumtimes u just get a bad phone when u flash it!! but i'd try another rom and see what that does!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
But I never flashed it to begin with. It this happened 6 moths after already having the phone.

But if I can fix it by flashing it, maybe I'll try that. I've been wanting to try that cyanogenmod since it's lookign better than my stock froyo.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jjayno2003:
Yea I would flash it b4 tryin a new1...n if that doesn't wrk then u no what to do :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
If I flash it, is my phone going to reset itself anyway? Totally new to this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jjayno2003:
yup thats y i always flash lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
If you have Clockworkmod Recovery try to just clear the Dalvik Cache. Reboot loops are usually Dalvik Cache issues. The first boot after clearing the cache can take around 5 minutes so be patient.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
I went ahead and factory reset it, since I have never flashed it or have any of those apps. If I decide to look into installing Cyanogenmon on my phone, where should I start reading to get all the information to learn how to do it? I've rooted my phone, but that's it. I've stuck to pretty much what was on the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
If you rooted it, that means you installed Clockworkmod Recovery. To install CM7 you download the zip package, go into recovery, do a factory reset and wipe the dalvik cache, format the system and flash the zip you got from CM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
I rooted it in Superoneclick though, I don't know if I have Clockworkmod recorvery, unless it's not supposed to show up in the app tray like Superuser does.

Isn't there a way to backup my current state on my phone so I keep all my settings in place? I'll probably get into this tomorrow after work.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
Check out tgagunmans nvflash method to get cwm 5.0.2.0 on your phone in dev section.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
Alright, now it's really ****ing up and pissing me off. I haven't done anything new to it. I was browsing the Market today and now I see that the home button doesn't work at all, I can't snap any pictures, there's no screen lock screen, I can't even change it to airplane mode when holding power, it only gives me the off option. What happened to this thing?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Have you loaded a lot of apps that autorun when you turn on the phone? Many do and you could be unaware of that. If too many apps are running, or a badly programmed app is running, it can cause issues such as this with your phone.

Also, it sounds like you are still on Froyo with the old baseband. You might want to consider factory resetting it again and running the LG Updater to get GB and the new baseband. Then use the One Click Flasher to install Clockwordmod so you can do backups (basically snapshots of the current state of your device) and then you can play around with alternate roms.

if that doesn't fix it then your device is defective. If you have a warranty you might just want to get a swap going on it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
Yeah, I'm still stuck on Froyo. Is the LG Updater working now? Last I read, it was bricking phones. If it works now, I'm guessing my plan should be:

Factory reset

Use LG Updater

Use One Click Flasher to Install Clockworkmod

Install a rom (Cyanogenmod)

Alot of this terminology is totally new to me, so I'm totally lost reading these tutorials that seem to rely on knowing what these terms mean.

Anyway, would be nice to get rid of all these errors. I can't even install anything from the marketplace anymore, I get a force close.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
Alright, tooling around on Cyanogenmod 7 now. I don't like that it doesn't have the LG camera or Swype, so I switched to Weapon G2X. Liking it. Any other recommendations?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zhetswai:
Weapon G2x is awesome i keep coming back to it my self.... but for the record i've only owned my phone for about a month and i havn't had any problems at all with i love actually :D .. i just can't find a kernel that doesn't mess things up :( back on subject i pretty sure GB took care of most of the problems people were having with the phone i don't know if they did any hardware updates to the newer models
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
Yeah, it's great. The only issue I have is that Swype doesn't give me a list of alternatives when I double tap a word, so I need to re-Swype the word "if" when it was supposed to be the word "of".

Last question, Can I make multiple backups with Flashworkmod? Now that I've fully set up all my phone, apps and fully configured all my settings, I wanted to back it up to this point so my personalized settings are still accessible. Or is it only one backup?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Do you mean Clockworkmod Recovery? The backups are coded by date and time so you can make as many as you want. Consider each one a snapshot of the exact state of the device at the time you made the backup. It will be restored exactly the same.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C16MkII:
Yeah, whoops. Clockworkmod Recovery. Thanks for the help!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zhetswai:
Should I be deleting old back ups how much memory does each back up take?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
That all depends on size of your external sdcard and how many apps you have installed. You really should only need 1 backup (for each rom).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Don't delete them, move them to your computer so you always have them. Each one is very large. Mine range from 430Mb to over 600Mb each. They can fill up your memory card very quickly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] zhetswai:
Good idea thanks

AHHHH Dude, Lay off the 420 for while and realise your in the wrong forum, this is for the Samsung Vibrant/Galaxy
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
You have a telus fascinate, not a TMO us vibrant, different beasts. I'm not sure if the telus fascinate has CM7 or not.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brodydj:
did you click the link,

i you did you would have seen that i am flashing a vibrant rom onto my fascinate. Either way im gonna get in trouble because if i post in the fascinate section they'll tell me to look here and vise-versa

0_0'

p.s sorry just realized the title was wrong, supposed to say rom not mod.... my bad
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Well, the link describes abut Samsung roms, you're trying to flash a CM7 rom. I don't think there are any "fixed" kernels in the telus camp for CM7.

The reason it's failing for you though, is that you don't have a vibrant rom (or a vibrant build.prop), so it fails at the initial check.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brodydj:
do you know how i could get it to work because the rom i installed is the one for the vibrant. Or so it says on their website
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Well, step one would be to flash a vibrant custom 2.2 rom and then flash the vibrant CM7 rom. But you'll have button mapping and headphone issues, and no one will want to fix them, since you don't actually have a vibrant.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brodydj:
ya your right, right now im getting headphone errors and it is really annoying, would you know how to fix it ??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
Um... There is a headphone toggle widget floating around somewhere, a good Google search should get you your desired outcome. Or, you could pop into one of the kernel dev irc channels, and they might help you build a kernel with fixed button mapping and fixed headphone issues.

I haven't done anything to the phone in a long time so I have no idea what happened.

I could do a wipe and start over but I really need a TB first!

Download a Rom you want place it on your SD card and reboot to recovery, fix permissions and then do a full data wipe, data, cache and under advanced davlik. Now install the Rom you want. If you install my Rom i have CWM built in so you will get a fresh copy and working SU.

Been running VR since - well forever. have toyed with other ROMS and keep coming back. The problem with VR is it is a basic ROM and if you want tweaks etc then you need to install them via VillainTweaks. Some people just cant seem to grasp that concept and as a result go for kitchen sink ROMS which have everything in them.

Give me minimalism any day of the week.

Its impossible to debug this guys issue since he hasnt provided any relevant information at all. Not even a basic screenshot of battery usage let alone better battery stats info.

And then all the smarties told him to switch roms, without so much as trying to really assist with the OP query, So he switches roms and he probably flashes the nimph 2.1.3 kernel again which has batttery regressions from samsung's source.

OP, flash the 2.0.5 kernel from nimph, it is what was included in the ROM. Then post some more information, BetterBatteryStats, search and read

You can easily downgrade your Market, and it WON'T auto-update, as long as you "disable" the marketupdater.apk: rename it by just adding .bak to the end of that system app. Here's an older version of the market that won't do any kind of density check on your device, and you'll be able to see all the apps as well. (Credit for this originally from user and friend Jayharper08) Just install normally, and make sure to change that updater app!

sim unlock the captivate with froyo 2.2 (KB1)

I have tried it on a captivate with Froyo.UCKB1 (2.2), and it works. (Old stuffs in this forum are for 2.1. )

http://www.androidgalaxy.net/how-to-unlock-a-samsung-galaxy-s-from-stock-android-2-2-froyo/

"I was able to successfully unlock using one of them: Galaxy_S Unlock by Helroz. This app offers 2 methods. The first method is now outdated, as it works similar to the Eclair scripts. The second method replaces a file in a folder called EFS. This is a protected folder. however, so in order to run the app, you require root."

For a Captivate with froyo (KB1) rom,

1.unroot using SuperOneClickv1.6.5-ShortFuse.

2.install "Galaxy_S Unlock by Helroz", (it will install busybox for you) and run:

backup EFS files -- step 1.

sim unlock -- step 2.

3. wait until it reboot.

Now your captivate is sim unlocked.
