[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amyth1884:
I desperately need help :mad:

I purchased a Samsung Focus 1.3 ATT phone about a month ago.

Which I was able to chevron unlock and upgrade till Mango.

Later, now I thought of increasing the memory to onbaord 8 GB+ 16 GB micor SD card.

In order to install the memory card, I would have to reset the phone, so that it recognizes the newly installed memory module, I searched high and low and could not find any resource to install the micro SD card without loosing the developer unlock.

Hence I decided to reset it, once the memory module was installed I tried restoring it to my first restore point where I could re unlock my windows phone. The first restore point had ver 7008 which is pre nodo. But since the memory size was different the restoration failed.

So I decided to remove the memory card and then restore it to 7008, which worked but now I am unable to chevron unlock, I have also tried flashing the factory rom to version 7004 and then trying, still no success.

Somebody, please provide me a solution or please unlock the device for me.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amyth1884:
Its done :)

I finally got it chevron unlocked again :)

This time I flashed the rom available for Rogers instead of ATT and it worked, I was able to chevron unlock, I am not sure why it didnt work when my cell had ATT rom, which is the actual rom that should be there.

[Q]

Out of the blue my Bionic just started rebooting. 8-10 time per day, who knows how may time at night. I am using the stock ROM. I am looking for a stable ROM that I can use to fix the problem. I also have the problem of disapearing apps that I move to the ext card.

Feedback on possible cures will be welcomed.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Wapples:
I just experienced my first unexpected reboot. It was after plugging in my USB to my computer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MillionManMosh:
This seems like the sort of thing that would have a 50% chance of being related to your hardware, and a 50% chance of an unstable app screwing something up. The stock software is at least stable enough that it's not very likely to be the cause of your issues, and flashing another ROM (which will have the same kernel) won't help if it is a hardware issue.

A factory reset followed by staggered reinstallation of apps (one or two at a time, to see if one in particular might be causing issues) would be my first step for a problem as extreme as random reboots. The next step is through warranty channels. I might even do that first- I don't think I could put up with a phone that rebooted on me.

And the cure for disappearing apps is to not use media area for storage. The phone dedicates 4gb for apps, that should be more than enough until they patch a fix.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] droid3d:
i may have to add that my phone was completely stable until i purchased and installed the extended battery then i started to experience reboots and a few locks here and there.

i did a few factory reset on the stock but the phone was still acting up with the new battery.

i then decided to root and run roms and to be frank no locks and or reboots running the same battery that seemed to be causing the problems based on that being the only change to my phone before the reboot and locks.

i am not saying that there is something there with the stock as there would be more reports on this but rooting and going back to stock is a single click now making it a fast process to trouble shoot the software.

i am experiencing a bad or short life with the extended so in my case it could have been the battery screwing up the reads on the software (guess) but the first 3 charge from full to dead just about 3 days after that same extended only last one day.

in general it seemed that my issue could have been a bad battery and wiping data and playing with roms may had help but in the end i will be calling verizon for a battery replacement as i doubt that in two weeks the battery charge for an extended could only last 1 day of medium use.

sorry long response and by no means i'm i encouraging to root and rom just speaking out of my experience.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lemmy Caution:
Hi - first post here. After 4 Thunderbolts - Verizon sent me a Bionic. Much better however, after rooting with 43v3r and de-bloating with The Black Hat App - I'm having random reboots. Initially, the reboots were several times per day increasing in frequency to several times an hour. Y u c k - My Thunderbolt could do that too. :-)

So in troubleshooting:

1 - I've reverted to stock build - no add'l apps: No reboots in 48 hours. So - I doubt it's hardware.

2- After reverting - I then rooted w/43v3R, then debloated - just using stock apps - no reboots in 24 hours. So, I really doubt it's debloating or rooting

3 - After adding a few apps - Stitcher, Enhanced email, SVOX w/voice, Beautiful Widgets (w/clock selected) - I get a reboot.

4 - Remove everything but stitcher. No reboots - 24 hours.

5 - Add Enhanced Email yesterday

Today, I had a reboot.

6 - So culprit 'looks' like Enhanced Email OR perhaps a switching problem between 3/4g (The Thunderbolt - Stitcher used to drop connection in this particular location so, there IS an issue w/3G-4G.

Questions:

1 - If it's not a 3g/4g issue; could it be related to where Enhanced email or Stitcher chooses to install itself?

2 - Is there a log somewhere where I could find 'boot' times and any issues relating to reboots? Like a 'minidump' in Windows...

thanks
[Motorola Droid Bionic] daughtkom:
I, too, have started having unexpected reboots. I can't pinpoint it exactly, but I have also recently isntalled Enhanced Email (trial version).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lemmy Caution:
Reboot Logger

Hey Google is our friend - don't know why I didn't look before but I found this in Android Market.

"Reboot Logger" by Watanabe,Masayuki.

Just installed it - will report back after Thanksgiving (in the U.S. - Thursday)...

(I would post a link but I'm a noob here - and, now I know why I hate myself.)

Looks like promising -
[Motorola Droid Bionic] djr4x4:
Have yall installed any themes or different battery icons, or anything like that to yours? Mine is 43v3R rooted with the liberty romv2. I was changing a cpl of the icons and experienced a reboot just out of the blue. I got rid of the icons I changed and stayed with the icons that came with the liberty rom and have no issues at all. I do not have enhanced mail on mine.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Th3demolitionman:
most bionics will turn off and wont turn back on till you do a battery pull. Its a known issue, all you have to do is google it and it turns up. From what ive read putting the battery on performance mode and putting on detect in pocket will help. Personally it doesnt help, i had the issue with the stock battery so purchased a extended thinking it was the battery, but after doing research i found out it isnt. They say the new OTA should fix it
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lemmy Caution:
icons - reboot logger

Thanks - haven't changed any icons BUT I am using HTC Thunderbolt wallpaper. I had a Thunderbolt that had a reboot problem until the OTA before Gingerbread - Verizon offered me the Bionic when I called about my Thunderbolt issues (I had three replacements - all with the same issues).

I will try different wallpaper -

Reboot logger works well but doesn't offer a clue as to what is causing the reboots. Mine has rebooted 2-3 times per day since I installed Reboot Logger(RL).

3 times a day is tolerable but, I would like to get to the bottom of what's causing it.

What IS helpful with RL is that it does show that the reboots are not occuring in any obvious time sequence.

They may be related to push emails coming in from my Exchange server. Not sure - I'll post more as I learn more. Hopefully the upcoming OTA will fix - though my experience with HTC's OTAs does not give me a lot of hope.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lemmy Caution:
Update - Last night, I uninstalled Stitcher - Stitcher frequently throws errors requiring a FORCE CLOSE. I also have kept Blueooth off.

No reboots in 24 hours -

Will reinstall Stitcher in the morning (I need it at the gym)...

Update tomorrow/Monday
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lemmy Caution:
Turned Bluetooth ON - no reboots in 36 hours so, It looks like Stitcher may be the culprit - I wonder if Stitcher has issue with the internal/external SD storage scheme.

As I noted previously, Stitcher reports 'force closes' frequently - especially when it's not even active (when I have not loaded it or used it).

(No sooner than I posted this - my phone rebooted. And again, and again will switch off BT - I'm in my office so, there's could be an issue with 3g/4g switching or other interference...)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] djr4x4:
Have you tried setting the phone to run strictly 3g? I have had no issues at all with mine jumping back and forth between 3g/4g.. I leave mine on 3g to keep it from trying to search for a 4g signal. I never turn bluetooth on, nor do I ever really use the compass. hmmmm... Can you tell me everything you have done to the phone. Apps you have installed, what ROM you using, if you have .886/.893 etc? I'm willing to see how close we are as for as how our phone's are setup and help as much as I can. I have not had a single issue with mine other then that one reboot after changing the battery icon.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Lemmy Caution:
After nearly two weeks of monitoring restarts - it appears that the problem is more related to where I am. At my home, restarts are rare and related to Stitcher.

At work in Beverly Hills, CA; restarts occur frequently. I assume it has something to do with 3g/4G switchover/crossover or interference.

I had lots of problems with the Thunderbolt dropping data connections in 90210. I could not use the hotspot. On the Bionic, the hotspot functions really well. I've used it up north near Fresno in 3G only land, here in BH and at home where I have decent 4G coverage.

When I remove Stitcher, the reboot problem disappears. Sometimes when I 'wake' the phone, there is a dialog apologizing for Stitcher having 'force closed' even if I haven't used it for days. Market reviews indicate anecdotally that Stitcher has a problem with force closes. This behavior must also be at the root of some of the reboots.

I've also set all programs not to update automatically - this may have reduced the reboots as well. On average, I'm getting 2-3 reboots per day. More than I would like but, tolerable.
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
ROM HAS STOPPED BEING DEVELOPED DUE TO BUG ISSUES!

PLEASE GO TO NEW ROM: DevilBread™ v1.0
[Wildfire Android Development] kaassaus:
good to see a new rom;)

Lately, there are more htc wildfire roms.

may i ask you what is the differnts from schiznks rom (oxygen)?

and what are you going to change?
[Wildfire Android Development] phantom200580:
Is this Rom support Arabic like Cm7?

ThanQ
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
I have yet to add more but for now just some tweaks and made gps a bit better :)

Should do, Im not to sure but I think it does because it has loads of languages :)
[Wildfire Android Development] Justice™:
Looks ok...I guess. Would've been cooler to see a truly new AOSP rom than oxeygen with your edits bolted on. Atleast simple rom renamers have given a kickstart to wildfire development.
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
Yeah sorry! I was looking for a clean AOSP 2.3.7 but all I could find is Oxygen.

If you can find me a clean AOSP that doesn't need resizing thats android 2.3.7 I will use it! :D
[Wildfire Android Development] kaassaus:
Only option is for clean rom is building from sources or port a aosp rom and resize
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
Yeah, both of those WERE my options but in the end I decided I didn't want to go resizing everything. Building looked quite long and a hefty task so I left it. But maybe soon I might get a AOSP rom and resize, if you could help find me one I will mention you in my post. I'll call it "Even More Feathers" haha hopefully I'll start soon, I'm uploading v0.2 in a second improved a huge amount of things :)
[Wildfire Android Development] Justice™:
There was a guide floating around this section from xbdg about compiling gingerbread AOSP for the wildfire and incorporating some of the CM team fixes. (Video recording, faster UI and such!) I will try and find this if you'd be willing to try it out. The tutorial was based on 2.3.5 at the time, But since its using the AOSP sources. The end rom should be 2.3.7
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
Sweet man, if you could find it I'll appreciate it :)
[Wildfire Android Development] MattDN93:
Looks good man, thanks for this, the Wildfire will be looking for more leaner AOSP-based ROMs to keep it zippy...will flash if I can clean my SD card out for Nandroid backups ;)
[Wildfire Android Development] rolks:
it is 235 not 237
[Wildfire Android Development] Justice™:
What is? The rom is based on oxygen. Which is 2.3.7.
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
Don't worry if it says 2.3.5, it is 2.3.7 because the user that ported the rom previously used DevNull ( 2.3.5) and he copied the build.prop file over to the Oxygen rom so basically it says 2.3.5 but its 2.3.7 :)
[Wildfire Android Development] revan1993:
then change in the build.prop from 2.3.5 to 2.3.7 when is basically on it ;D
[Wildfire Android Development] schiznik:
Oh look another Oxygen winzippah...

@mrweqa - any chance of sharing the changes you've made (eg to GPS), so I can look at integrating them into Oxygen?

With regards to the 2.3.5 & 2.3.7 confusion - Oxygen is built from the 2.3.7 sources, but identifies itself as 2.3.5 for Market compatibility reasons.
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
Add (Replace is SUPL's are already there) this to /system/etc/gps.conf

SUPL_HOST=supl.sonyericsson.com

SUPL_PORT=7275

The sony ericsson has a slightly faster, more stable gps :)
[Wildfire Android Development] dionysis560:
v0.3 has root permission problems.Every app (Titanium Backup for example) gets denied.Apart from that very good job!
[Wildfire Android Development] mrweqa:
Woops, sorry! Will fix in v0.4 plus hopefully a camcorder fix :D

can anyone help me with rooting? i tried to root my galaxy s2 and odin gave me this message: <ID:0/004> Can't open the serial(COM) port.

my root version is kg2 yet none of the 3 kernals worked for me. im not sure if this has anything to do with it but my model number is i9100m instead of i9100

any and all help is appriciated
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
Install Samsung Kies on your computer and then make sure it's not running when you run ODIN. That message basically means it's not finding your phone. COM port is a USB port (in this case).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armani26:
Hey guys,

i wrote a small tutorial for all this people which have the galaxy s i9010 ( its like the captivate only for german market [armani] ) and want install Cyanogenmod with 100% WORKING GPS.

That was really the main problem, but i solved it with the help of this forum.

please extract all my files, i had to compress them but you cant use them as zip!

First of all go back to stock with your phone. You can download all files from http://www.sammobile.com/showthread.php?t=20 but pay attention:

If you dont use the following files, your phone wont work.

Donwload BOTH Firmwares and choose these 3 files for flashing with Odin:

-GT-I9010-CSC-MULTI-OXA902407.tar.md5 (444,851 mb) --> CSC

-I9010XXKB2-REV00-ALL-low-CL909299.tar.md5 (279,501 mb) --> PDA

-MODEM_I9010XXJK9_REV_00_CL737172_SIGNED.tar.md5 (12,291 mb)--> PHONE

Now you are on stock and everything is working fine but you have Android 2.2

Download the latest Cyanogenmod for Samsung CAPTIVATE on http://www.cyanogenmod.com/

- extract all files into a new folder

- replace the existing modem.bin with the JK9-Armani-modem (same name Modem.bin)

- open with notepad and edit the file META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

- change all entries “SGH-I896” to GT-I9010 [found this solution here] http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15822109&postcount=67

- save the file and compress via 7-zip to a new zip-file ( mark all files and folders --> right-click --> 7-Zip --> add to XXX.zip

- put this new zip-file into your sdcard

- Now root your phone via "onecklickroot" ( enable USB-debug and dont forget restart after that) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

- replace this 3e_recovery file with the existing in System/Bin

- install Rom-manager and install clockworkmod (choose samsung captivate)

- reboot into recovery menu and press 2 times "reinstall packages", after that you start into the clockworkmod

- choose install zip from sd and choose your created zip-file

- copy stock gps files to your internal sd

- start root-explorer and copy all files (the folder gpsd to system/bin

the both files to system/etc)

-reboot phone

OPTIONALLY

you can install "

gapps

", if you need apps like google-market. You do it same like installing Cyanogenmod, reboot into recovery, install from sd etc.http://goo-inside.me/gapps/

you can use the really nice HTC-keyboard, just put the two keyboard files on your sd card, install them and choose settings/language and keyboard HTC_IME

to activate the keyboard go to sms and press a long time into the text field, now you can choose your input method

Have fun and enjoy your galaxy s I9010 with Android-Version 2.3.7 :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoshiwa:
something seems to be going wrong..

it keeps telling it is updating but it doesnt proceed anymore.

Maybe this is because i cant go back to the original stock rom coz the link is broken (and i dont fully understand th explaination with the 3 files and what to do.

I have a stable andromeda 3 build running but my gps isnt working.

I already copied the gps files into their destination folders(and it asked me to replace so i did this properly).

Should my gps work when i did this or should i take additional steps to get it running?

Thanks in advance :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoshiwa:
seems like i only miss the 'phone' file , the rest i found via google on the samware site , only the phone file (and the pit , but that one is here already) i still dont have , anyone can help?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armani26:
Hey yoshiwa,

you need to download all files you can get for samsung i9010 on the samfirmware site. After downloading and extracting you have 5 files, but you only need the three i posted. Its really recommend that you flash back to stock before flashing a new rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] szika87:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armani26:
@MikeFRG

in your folder System/Bin exist a file named recovery. You must overwrite it via root-explorer with the new recovery-file (the modded 3e_recovery file )
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armani26:
@ erycx and szika87

you dont need any bootloaders, just download Odin put in the right fields the right files. You need phone, CSC, PDA, and the small pit file... and it works :)

Thanks man! It really does work for me. CM7 & CM9

Thank you. It work for my 9010 ARMANI. First I've installed th CM7 and used it for a month without any trouble. Now I used your manual to do the same with CM9. Really cool. It seems to be ok.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbogdanmircea:
Hello.

I flashed a I897 Stock GB ROM on my Armani and my phone modem is not working anymore.

Can you please help?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
The whole instructions are in the OP, read it, understand it and follow it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbogdanmircea:
Thanks, now I am back on I9010 stock.

Can you confirm that all the file links that you posted are working?

I will try and download all files and follow the steps.

Now after going through I897 without phone modem, then bootloop, the back to Armani I can say that I got some experience with Odin and

flashing.

Anyhow do you have any idea why on ROOTED 2.2 ROM Manager will not flash the Clockwork even if it says that it is successfull?

Well now with stock 2.2 and factory reset and everything wipe the phone seems to be moving really fast compared to before I started the whole process.

What can you say about the Cyanoged, how is it working in terms of speed and lagfix?

Thanks!

Will get back.

PS: Now that I looked into the OP I saw that still a Clockwork in needed for installing Cyanogen, but I cannot install Clockwork so I cannot follow your instructions.

Is there any other way to install custom recovery except the ROM Manager application?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
ROM Manager doesn't support the Captivate. You'll need to flash a custom kernel using Odin (speedmod for 2.2). The only thing I dunno is if it's compatible with the I9010.. But before doing so, you wanna do all the other steps with CM (changing the updater.script and such) and have it on the root of your internal.

After flashing speedmod, you'll be booting directly in recovery to flash the modded CM. Don't forget to grab the Gapps.
