i then pulled the battery then put the phone back in download mode

what did i do wrong and how to i fix it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
You need the GB bootloaders. That's the rainbow screen that you get for having Froyo bootloaders on a GB ROM.

Only the GB

LEAKS

have bootloaders. Be sure to get the ones from KG4 and higher.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hd2brick:
Can I just flash I froyo rom straight from odin with where I'm at? If so which rom could I use?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Exodian:
Are looking to get froyo or gingerbread. I personally recommend gb.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
Yes, you should be able to. But if you're trying to get to GB, go with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1183413 which is the KG4 link you posted earlier. When you open ODIN, put:

CODE_T959VUVKG4_CL385158_REV00_user_low_noship.tar.md5 into PDA

Hawk_Sidekick_VibrantPlus_831.pit into PIT

SGH-T959V-CSC-TMB-VIBRANTP.tar.md5 into CSC

t959vuvkg4-Phone-CL1037720.tar.md5 into PHONE

Leave the checkboxes alone; ODIN will check the correct ones. That should get you to a base GB build with the right bootloaders. From there you should be able to update to the latest GB ROM.

1- when someone send me an sms msg the time of the msg is wrong, but when i reply the time is right (i recieve the msg at 10:12am but the time in the inbox is 12:45pm,, i send a msg at the same time, and the time in the inbox is right)

2- the picture of my contacts when they send me an sms msg doesnt show,, i dont know why,, i see it when they call me but in the inbox its not working.

I'm using Endymion v2.1 ROM

This thing takes for god damn ever to backup christ. As I don't ever use it, do I need to back it up? Just curious. Since I seem to remember the osh file is webtop. And that's generally what takes forever.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jtucker132:
What did you do to get it back
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
Yeah, its like 3Gb. It'll probably take forever, but I've never backed it up.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lokifish Marz:
It takes a while due to it being a 1.2GB partition with around 800MB of data. It's is larger than most phones entire nandroid. I suggest you back it up once with a new full update like 198_7 and don't worry about it afterwards.
[Motorola Photon 4G] noefects:
I dont back it up or restore it, tremendously saves on time, if you dont have a dock/webtop over hdmi set up no real need.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kcarpenter:
Hmmm... at one point in time Toast and Flipz had overclocked the recovery for the Hero - wonder if we could do it with this too :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
That would be pretty sweet. I have made a couple backup's as of recent so I could play with the new kernels. So since I have one made I will skip it in the future.

hey guys, before you say this is a repost ive had a look and was unable to find someone who done the same thing as me...

i have a brand new galaxy s2,

i tried to root it, but some how i stuffed it up and the phone got stuck on the boot screen after the root, i tried to reinstall the kernel but without being able to get into the phone i didnt know which kernel i needed, i DONT have clockworkmod installed so i couldnt boot via that either, so i tried downloading the stock kernel for Telstra my phone provider, i tried installing that, but now instead of being stuck on the screen with the boot logo and a yellow triangle, im stuck on the screen that has a little image of a phone and a computer and an orange triangle between then with a ! in it. any assistance in this would be greatly appreciated
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Hey,

first question:

You are able to get in download mode? (volume down + home button + power button)

If yes, be cool ;)

So when u are able, flash a stock Rom with "re-partition".

This means also that you must have a stock Rom with 3 files (or sometimes more), but not the one .tar file.

If you've done this, your phone should work normal.

Then try to root again with the right "cf-root" for the android version, you flashed.

Good luck!

CHEERS ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slippery_gypsy:
wow while i was waiting the 5 minutes to do another pist, i downloaded the jpkh1 rom and installed that... mate your my hero, it worked !!! now to follow some guides and and properly root this phone with the right rom :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] System of a pWne!^:
Just out of curiosity: I always read, you should never select "re-partition".

Why do you suggest this here right now for a StockRom?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
Never when it's just a one part .tar file!

If you have three or more you can choose for odin (phone,modem,csc)

then u can select it ;)

CHEERS
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] System of a pWne!^:
What I have read it only works if pit file is available, but even then re-partition should not be used. And a one-file tar generally contains the same files (phone,modem,csc) as the three-file-combo.

That's why I'm so confused.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slippery_gypsy:
Im honestly glad you guys know what your talking about
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
The .pit file is only needed by three-file-combo.

Then you can check also the repartition.

If you have one file .tar, the .pit-file is senseless and never should check repartition.

Sure in one file you have nearly the same "files" like in three, but in three-file they can be written separatly on right partition.

Mates don't get me wrong but just accept it :D

I'm not a dev or scripter but but flashed a lot.

Never bricked my phone but often hanging in bootloop and so on.

And like you see the way with re-partition can help.

I Never flashed a stock Rom since I had my SGS II, but like I said I'm flashing a lot and I had the SGS before, too :D

Hope all question are answered.

If not pls ask devs for more info.

But that's the general things I can tell you

CHEERS ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intratech:
Wrong, you can use it with both single tarball archive or with the 3 component tarball. You don't need to repartition the device unless you need to change the partition layout for whatever reason or you've damaged your partition layout.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hannibal226:
1) Right, he damaged it so he needed it.

2) No you shouldn't use it by one file flash!

Read threads and experiences from users which have probs after flashing like this if at all possible to flash.

But however I don't wanna say anybody how to flash.

That's my and also a lot of other user experience ;)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thierry_b:
Hello,

Since this morning, it's not possible to download any app from Market.

In the beginning, I thought it was du to my new rom, and after, I restored the old one, I remark that it didn't work.

I tried to erase partition table, thinking it was an ext problem (because I convert to ext4 for the new rom, and reconvert to ext3 before restoring the old rom), but it changes nothing (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1326544)

And finally, I remark that I've also this problem with my old HTC Hero with Cyanogen, so it's not due to the ROM I think.

The download never begin (progress bar), and I've an unsucessfull message.

But the most strange, is that I can update app, with the website of Market, it starts the download on my phone and it's good.

What do you think of that?

Thanks :-)

I myself using Active Launcher too, and it's not too slow. (yes, under GDX018 and LDX004) I think it's because I've set swap for my phone, so it always get enough RAM, and it mustn't close if any app is started. Conclusion: Try set swap, and see if it works!

But the main problem is that I can't connect phone to the pc! SEUS was trying to find the phone but failed everytime... I tried on Vista, Windows 7, even on Xp - same everywhere. (I searched for answers for this problem but they didn't exactly matched my problem)

So how can I change the language without SEUS? because in every explanation I see that I need to update the phone when flashing a language.. so this is the biggest problem now.

Would a battery calbiration sort this problem?

p.s the battery is only 2 months old, being a genuine htc innovation one, it shouldnt go that quick i assume.

Probably.. It most likely won't ruin you phone, so keep using it, if it still works.
