[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skippy140493:
Hi XDA!

I've been reading bits through the forum for a little while, and used a few of the guides available on here to root my S2, as well as flash litening rom onto it.

for what its worth I'll try and give as much detail as possible, I was originally using MIUI, and then using CWM swapped to Litening Rom.

A few nights ago I dropped my S2, it landed on the top right corner and I could see a small crack across the display and it won't come on, and first it was blue lines and I could see some of the display through it, but now it stays black, the touchscreen did work for a while, but I've tried it now and nothing.

basically its done... I'm on the Optus $59 Plan and am going to send it in for repairs.

I have no backup from when I got the Phone, of the original software etc

So I need to restore it for repair.... I ordered the usb jig on monday so waiting for that to come in ; EDIT: No Outside links for a new user :( (Ebay Link to USB Jig)

So once I get that in, I need to go back to whatever is good for repairs.

What I am asking for:

links to appropriate files needed to get me to warranty standards.

basically some help to do it, I don't know much on the whole rooting and flashing scene, and probably jumped a bit ahead of myself with this, and now I'm stuck trying to fix it with no Display.... learned my lesson

I hope this is adequate, any further info that might be needed I would be happy to give

Thanks For Your Time!

Sean

Rotten luck!!!

If you can turn on your phone, then try using ODIN to flash a stock kernel.

As it shows on your PC if it's in contact with the phone.

Search forum's for further info.

Hope this helps

You dropped and broke your phone and you think that Samsung/your operator are going to repair it under warranty? Good luck.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flemmingski:
He could have an extended warranty for things like an accident. They do exist, you know.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skippy140493:
correct, I have Insurance on the phone through my carrier

EDIT to avoid double posting:

What about the firmware? I will need to change that too won't I?

either way I'm stuck at nothing till the jig arrives
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bust4rdo:
Yes, you need stock kernel and stock firmware.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joey2o11:
To be honest i doubt they'll care, the phone was dropped and the screen was broken, this is the reason for the repair. What firmware the phone is running is surely irrelevant it's a hardware problem not software related???????
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Indeed. Check your insurance policy.

Insurance != Warranty.
[HTC Desire S] sirioo:
I have installed CyanogenMod-7-10252011-NIGHTLY-DesireS and rom manager (with premium license). When I try to check for ROM updates form rom manager it does nothing (nether connect attempt nor any message) in download rom menu I do not see CyanogenMod nightly builds as-well (actually whole premium section is empty) .

Is it expected behavior?

thx
[S740, S743 Accessories] mh505:
Can anyone tell me as to what is the highest capacity card the S740 supports. Just talked to the HTC hotline, and they tell me it's 8GB (first they alleged it was only 4GB yet I had an 8GB in my machine that just got stolen).

On the other hand, I see offers out there for 16GB and even 32GB that supposedly work with the S740.

thanks in advance for your help
[S740, S743 Accessories] mh505:
Well I've learned that 16GB will definitely work; and that 32GB should also - theoretically.

So I have taken the "plunge" and ordered the 32GB; after all the cost is practically negligible

Now that Nokia offline maps are available for android can anyone explain how to use them with the GS2? I'd really like to download a couple of maps. I'm using Mozilla for Android which should support HTML5.

thanks

Rafa
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sumatrix:
i think you cannot use it offline on any other phone except nokia phones. on other phones u can access it only through a HTML 5 supported browser.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] iqandjoke:
Using the stock browser to visit that nokia maps website and download the content locally. Then you can access it when mobile is offline. Only visible in the browser.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] seghier:
you can use sygic from market

than download the maps and use it with gps
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] soeren1705:
What ? Please explain ! As far as I can see the Sygic app on market is 7 days trial ? Will this app really work with the Nokia maps ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] seghier:

[Motorola Droid 3] jholden0192:
I have a verizon wireless droid 3..

I think the verizon part matters right? lol anyways, i just rooted m phone tonight and ive downloaded root explorer, root uninstaller, rom manager, and ti backup. id really like to "flash"(is that proper?) a new rom onto my phone. I understand one of the major options is steeldroid. /what else do i need to download to my pohne to get this rom? Im a complete noob when it comes to android. Period. I came from the sheltered world of blackberries.

I read a thread on another site which was a walkthrough and gave links, but the bootstrap link asks me question i dont have answers to. Help? :/ i download stuff to my computer?
[Motorola Droid 3] bogdan_wrc:
a lot of explanations and links are in the 1st post from this link

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1278056

under "Flashing instructions:"
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Just get a bootloader so you can get Clockwork installed and you can install the ROM from there. Just read up about it.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
bootloader? Is our bootloader unlocked?? we have a hijack bootstrap and 2nd-init but yes I would suggest grabbing hashcodes modified version of koush's clockworkmod and installing flashing from there.
[Motorola Droid 3] jholden0192:
how do i openn the .rar file that rsdlite is in?

Do i have to do the beginning steps if my phone is already rooted?
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
I know u just wanna flash it, but u should def do some reading. Using rsd u can really mess ur phone up! Make sure ur settings/about/system are 5.6.890 and install clockwork first. Then boot into clockwork and u can flash. Only use rsd if ur bricked and its last resort!

Edit: after re-reading, I highly suggest u read the original posts in the rom u want to flash. Make sure its in the droid 3 forum. No offense, but if ur unfamiliar with rar and zip, this may b a little too much
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
i agree w/ ya......with some roms they suggest using safestrap instead of just koushs modded bootstrap which may/may-not be the same as safestrap and if you use the wrong thing, you may chance bootlooping your phone or worse, so yeah......if he gave specific instructions, your best bet is to follow those for simplicity so that if you have issues you can just confirm using all the steps he listed unless you're an advanced modder and you know what you're doing

and to extract rar files, http://www.rarlab.com is the app you need
[Motorola Droid 3] jholden0192:
thanks for the help guys seriously.

i AM on 5.6.890, and im very familiar with .zip files just not .rar. didnt realize you had to use an outside program to open .rar

isnt clockworkmod the rom manager i downloaded?

i guess im looking for a "How to for dummies" of sorts. i know that i will be able to do this, i just want to do it right. Id hate to brick a phone I just got.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
Clockwork is different from rom manager. I think steel droid just released a version u can use with safestrap, but read up on the safestrap and SD threads first! I jacked around with safestrap and bootlooped and rsd'd and bootlooped and now im back. Once u install clockwork mod, create a backup! Then, put the rom on ur sd card and select install zip from sd card. Don't use rsd unless ur really really messed up
[Motorola Droid 3] jholden0192:
Okay so I download clockwork and safestrap(install to phone or computer? Links?) And after I do that create a backup, install the new ROM on my sd and open clockwork. And select install from sd...?

Droooooiiid.. the sound forever in our hearts and nightmares <3
[Motorola Droid 3] MrJudylicious:
Alright, call me mean, but if u can't figure out these next instructions, I can't help u. What's going to happen is ull screw up and then fret because u don't know how to rsd. Its very easy to bootloop!

search the forum for hashcodes tweaked bootstrapper (which is clockwork). I would stay away from the safestrap if I were u. U download this to ur phone, and install it like an .exe. once installed, hit bootstrap recovery, then when u hit reboot recovery, it will reboot into clockwork. Once in clockwork select backup and it will make a nandroid (exact copy). After that u can choose to install the roms zip from sd card. Once its finished, I highly suggest u use the wipe data/cache in clockwork. That will reset all ur data and become a new-out-of-box phone. If u bootloop, then u use rsd.

Be aware that u can brick ur phone. I've saw a few with low batteries get stuck! We all try to help here, but I think the best for u is to read instead of doing. We will try to help if u bootloop, but sometimes there is no fixing.
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
yeah, safestrap isn't compatable w/ all roms at the moment, and like mrjudy said, low battery can affect rom flashing...suggested is >75% battery life
[Motorola Droid 3] SX86:
To add to MrJudylicious post...

I came from a blackberry too, before I got my first Android 2 years ago.

Here's what you should do. First, Familiarize yourself with the Android ecosystem. Flashing ROMs on a brand new phone is tempting, but at the same time, you have no mental reference of how Android was before you flashed that ROM, so it's hard for you to compare and see what's best for you, and what's not. What new feature you was added, what has been improved over your last ROM, etc...

I used Android for 6 months before rooting for the first time, just to give myself some time to learn what's nice about it, and also what I would like for it to achieve, that it can't do without root.

I flashed my first ROM 1 year after that, and this was a great time. Why ? Because I saw how cool things became, I was able to compare the ROM with my "stock android" experience.

I read all your posts in this thread, and you make me feel like you might not be ready to jump in feet first in this. All the ROMS for the Droid3 are in very early stage of development and, if I would be you, would wait for them to become more stable and reliable. I'm not saying that they should not be used at all, just saying that it might not be the best idea for you yo do this RIGHT NOW.

Please do yourself a favor, and keep your phone as it is right now. Root is OK, but be careful.
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
perfection if i've ever seen it :P i was in a similar situation, i had a rooted phone and there were next to no roms for the first android phone i got, so when i got my incredible 2 the first thing i did was root it since it was essentially the same exact FW and layout, and i've been mod-happy ever since lol
[Motorola Droid 3] jholden0192:
thanks guys, you've been a massive help forreal. Maybe an idea for you guys to make the learning process better for n00bs such as myself, is to make a thread and discuss some of the terms, acronyms, file names exes apks bak and such. And sticky that thread so when you do your best to try and help someone they can better understand you guys.

Just an idea though. I think ill just wait to flash ROMs and whatnot.

Droooooiiid.. the sound forever in our hearts and nightmares <3
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Sorry I used the wrong term. I meant bootstrap not bootloader.

Hi

I'm kinda new to flashing roms so I was wondering if this rom would work on the canadian sgh t589 (samsung galaxy q)?

Thanks alot
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MikeD215:
the cdn version indeed is the galaxy q.. just like ours is the same line of phones..

so yes i cant see why flashing wouldn't work..

the only thing that comes to mind would be changing the apn settings.. im not sure

but i dont think you will get a data signal since me and arhtard are running on with

tmobile with a sim...if you have tmobile great if not and running a diff provider and hopefully not cdma... so thats probably the only issue i can for see.. as i flashed this rom with

zero error.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BlindWolf8:
Just flashed this tonight on my friend's phone. Success! :) The stock recovery will show errors on nuking cache and data I believe, but they do get nuked. The spinning coin animation is nice! Where is it from? Am I safe to assume I can nuke other apps without issue via su?

Oh...and when is the next release and how can I help? :) I have a knack for programming/scripting.

[Atrix 4G General] surrealjam:
If you search YouTube for "motorola atrix gingerbread update" there are a few videos of people running though the AT&T update that America got a few months back.

I would say it is safe to assume the European update will look similar. The majority of the updates between FroYo and Gingerbread are probably going to be cosmetic to most users...
[Atrix 4G General] Moonshield:
The GB system is more stable and fast. The update will bring you the new version of the ****y Motoblur, which is actually somewhat usable compared to the one in the Froyo roms...

:cool:
[Atrix 4G General] lilhyper:
Wow ICS is comning out and you guys are just getting Gingerbread? You could have just flashed one of the custom roms which would be an improvement to the stock regardless.

I LOVE this phone, I think it's the perfect combination of screen size and power and I want to hold it as long as it lasts.
[Atrix 4G General] knjigo:
yes, sure. i would like to flash ics if possible on atrix. my problem is, i own also nexus s. one of them i would like to sell.

i like atrix more than nexus, but nexus will receive ics in dezember, atrix will recieve gingerbread in november. very stupid situation.
