I'm running stock firmware, not sure if it's the same on other firmwares. Do you have an epic touch or a gsm GS2?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Razorwindmo46:
This is sort of what I need but, I just want to disable the default Samsung/Vlingo app period. The BT headset I have has an app in the market to use works well and the Samsung/Vlingo app overrides anything else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] raremind:
This worked brilliantly! Thank you! I used root explorer because the files are read only but it was easy as pie. Now to find a replacement with similar features but actually works and doesn't continually say "What would you like to do?" over and over till you turn off the phone because it doesn't know what to do when you are using the texting feature and someone texts you while you have it open.

Just wanted to say thanks to the OP for this. Worked great on my Sprint Epic 4G Touch! I just transferred the file via USB and did the rest with Root Explorer. No problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nacron:
Np, this method does not work with the recent ics leaks however. I can get voicedialer to initialize but it FCs. If you run the app without Bluetooth initialization it works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] misfit0313:
Has anybody figured out how to get voice dialer working on the leaks?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gesquive:
I just upgraded to the stock JB image and had the same problem. I was able to fix it on a non-rooted phone by doing the following:

Open Settings

Select "Application manager"

Scroll to the right until you are in the "ALL" tab

Scroll down until you find the "Voice command" app, select it

This should bring up the App info for Voice command, the top right button should be labeled "Disable", press this button

Now when you long press the search button it will go to Google search, if you have other apps capable of performing search, they will pop up as an option instead.

This solved my problem, no more Vlingo.

I'm using samsung galaxy fit (GT-S5670) with Android 2.3.4. Please tell me how to configure my phone to access internet through PC using USB cable connection. I'm using Broadband connection in PC.

How to get internet on your phone via USB

You may also call this reversed USB tether.

This might come in handy if you're near a computer (Win XP/Win7) and there's no Wifi to connect to etc..

So after some research and trying I've found some information on how to do this.

Requirements:

* Android 2.2 (or an older version with a root tethering app)

* ADB from Android SDK, or a rooted Android 2.2 with terminal in root mode

STEP 1:

Install USB drivers from Android SDK.

STEP 2:

Connect USB cable and activate USB Tethering.

You should see a new network interface. (On XP you might need to install the RNDIS driver manually, see below)

If you're also missing RNDIS driver on Win7, look here.

Win XP manual driver install Android USB Ethernet/RNDIS: (You can skip this if you're on Win 7)

1. Download the following configuration file inside the *.zip attached to this post (tetherxp.inf) to your Windows XP computer.

2. Use the USB cable that came with your phone to connect your phone to your computer.

3. On the Android phone, press Home > Menu > Settings to open the Settings application.

4. Press Wireless & networks > Tethering & portable hotspot.

5. Check USB tethering.

6. When Windows XP’s New Hardware Wizard opens, select No, not at this time and click Next.

7. Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.

8. Click Browse to browse to the directory where you installed the configuration file you downloaded in Step 1 and click Next. Windows XP uses the configuration file to configure itself to support USB tethering with the Android phone. (This might take a while)

9. When Windows XP finishes installing the software for Android USB Ethernet/RNDIS, click Finish.

STEP 3:

Bridge the 2 network interfaces.

STEP 4:

Setup usb0 interface of your phone. You have to options:

1. From your computer, execute:

./adb shell netcfg usb0 dhcp

2. Or in a root terminal on your phone, type:

su

netcfg usb0 dhcp

You should now be able to connect to Internet on your phone using your computer's Internet connection.

Try to do a ping www.google.com to be sure.

STEP 5:

To shut down the reverse-tethering, first unbridge interfaces on your computer:

sudo ifconfig eth0 down

sudo ifconfig usb0 down

sudo ifconfig br0 down

sudo brctl delbr br0

sudo ifconfig eth0 up

sudo dhclient eth0

Then on your phone, uncheck the USB Tethering option.

Quote...

It is working now. After setting up ICS type in console emulator on your phone:

ifconfig usb1 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

route add default gw 192.168.2.1 dev usb0

iptables -F

iptables -F -t nat

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8

setprop "net.gprs.http-proxy" ""

Hope this helps some one who wants this to the right direction.

And maybe we're able to create an app to do this all automated.

Known issues but does not apply to all users:

1. Internet in browser application does not work.

2. Can't ping domain name.

For a little more info check out the sources, this includes the Linux version too.

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] cdesai:
1. Stop spamming the forum, don't open useless threads here and there.

2. The thing you wanna do isnt possible

Each phone has its own specific firmware, and firmware made for one phone wont run on the other, and may also damage the phone

Porting firmware needs a lot of knowledge, you need to do lot more than "just changing resolution" (actually there's nothing like "changing resolution" :P)

once again, he did it just as an experiment, and it isnt really useful on such a small screen(2 fingers for zooming in and out, maybe 5 for some games, thats it!)

LOL

No.

Senior Member = members having made more than 100 "useful" posts, and thanks meter has nothing to do with a person's capability

Stop this, you'll probably damage your phone, and perhaps of others too.

Ok, I have CWM and I can access it. I cannot read from my External SD Card to install a rom. I can access my Internal SD but I do not have a rom in there.

I cannot boot into the previous ROM since I erased everything and when restarting I get boot loops. I need the tablet to get back to work tomorrow.

Any help would be greatly apreciated.

I have a ROM downloaded in my PC but when I connect the A500 to the PC (via USB) I cannot mount it to copy it there and flash.

HELP please!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] shin lucifer:
What version of CWM do you have. I think the new one can install ROM from USB drive. Also try reformatting the SD card in a PC in FAT32, some time its just that and some time tablet is picky what SD card it can read and what it cant.
[Acer Iconia A500] marcos.lennis:
I was able to put the SD Card from my phone and flashed the new rom. The tablet is sill not recognizing the SD Card though. I put it on my PC and it wont detect it (cant format it that way). I put it on my printer and I am able to read from it but I cannot format it. It tells me that is right protected.

I need to find another way of formatting it.

Thanks for your help.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I suggest you get a new sd card. Clearly the one you're trying to use is not working.

I'm not even sure if you can "write protect" an SD. Maybe something on the micro SD adapter perhaps (switch)? Or an option in Windows Explorer (check the sd's "properties". If it says "write protected", then turn it off.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtdavis:
Hi all

New to rooting but after reading the forum on here about using the 1 step process I decided to give it a try. Once I installed the app I ran it and click rootme and then had to manually turn the phone off since it never rebooted.

I then turned it back off and press the vol up and the power button. I got a picture of the eris and then a red triange. I was able to get to the point of where I was suppose to click on Flash from SD but there was an error message.

I then tired rebooting. This time I had to hold the down vol button and the power button. This gave me the option of fastboot or recovery (press up vol). When I press recovery all I get is the white screen with the andriods on skateboards. I will not do anything else. I have to then pulled the battery to turn it off.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtdavis:
Ok after many reboots (taking the battery out) the phone rebooted. This morning I turned it off and rebooted while holding the vol down and power button. I was then able to go into recovery mode followed the instructions to root the phone. I then selected to reboot and now the phone is stuck in boot up mode. It goes from the androids on skateboards to the Verizon logo and then back to the skateboarding scene.

Any suggections? Should I try to go back in and back and recover mode?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtdavis:
Ok after many attempts going through the recovery mode it finally worked. Now to figure out how to load android 2.2.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
Don't bother with Android 2.2 - the Eris runs the Gingerbread (2.3) ROMs far better these days, with fewer niggling issues.

As a first time rooter, I suggest using the easier CondemnedSoul's CM7, which is a single flash, over GSB, which requires flashing both GSB and the Google apps .zip file.

They are here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1030346 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=944430

Read the first post of each carefully. The ODEXed version of GSB is probably best for now, if you go that way. Make sure to download the Google apps zip file as well and copy that to your SD card as well.

From Recovery, after getting those files onto your SD card, you'll:

- Backup/Restore menu

- Nand backup

- Back to main menu

- Wipe menu

- Wipe data/factory reset

- Wipe Dalvik cache

- Back to main menu

- Flash a zip file from SD card

- choose either CS's .zip file or the GSB zip file

- [if you choose GSB] - Flash a zip from SD card

- [if you choose GSB] - choose the gappsxxx.zip file

- reboot

You should be brought to the initial setup screen after a long first boot.

Good luck.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtdavis:
Thanks for the recommendation. I was able to get 2.2 working and loved the improved preformance. I think I will take your advice and try gingerbread 2.3.

Thanks

Bill
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
As long as you Nand backup before flashing 2.3, just remember that you can always go back to 2.2 on your phone, exactly as it is running at the time that you backup, by going into Recover, going to the Backup/restore menu, choosing Nand restore and then find the backup that you made - they are stored with a date/time code, to mark when the backup is run - and when you restart the phone you'll be back to the 2.2 ROM that you were running at the time of the backup, just as you left it, with all of your apps and data.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgtdavis:
Thanks for the help. I am running Gingerbread 2.3.7 now!
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
Hi Everyone,

Apologies for this post, I've spent the last week and a half trawling through forum posts for my problem with limited success.

My Desire S had been experiencing random freezes, which would require a battery pull to reboot. I had tried a factory reset from HBOOT, but the phone would still freeze after that.

After the 5th or 6th battery pull, my phone would no longer boot successfully - It would get stuck on the white screen with green 'HTC' Text.

I can still successfully boot into HBOOT. If i select RECOVERY, it shows a black screen with a green triangle, then the screen goes black and the phone vibrates seven times.

If i select FACTORY RESET, the phone freezes and is not responsive.

My Phone details from HBOOT are as follows:

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-0.98.0002

RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M

eMMC-boot

Mar 30 2011, 17:29:31

I've tried connecting the phone to the PC and running some of the RUUs from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002506

specifically: RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed

If I connect in HBOOT and run the RUU, I get a less than 30% battery power error, but if i connect through FASTBOOT, the RUU will run but gets stuck on a 'rebooting to bootloader' message.

The phone cannot be seen in a devices search in ADB either. Also, In an effort to remove S-ON to load PG88IMG.zip from my SD CARD, i tried the revolutionary and HTC provided methods, both were unsuccessful.

with Revolutionary, it would show "Waiting on device" and then nothing, and with the HTC method, the fastboot command to get the device token wouldn't work due to a command error. I know that the HTC method doesnt officially support the Desire S, but another XDA poster said that worked for his (or hers).

So, I'm asking for help. :) There are a lot of posts that relate to my issue, but none match 100%. I wanted to figure this out myself, but I defer to your greater knowledge.

Thanks very much, any help would be great.
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
sorry, as an addendum, I've also successfully created a gold card, if that helps. :)
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
A very rare problem, and since you've done a lot on your phone that were'nt successful, hope for the best that you haven't fried your eMMC. (Check forum for reference)

I would strongly suggest to remove the battery out for atleast 30secs to 1min. Then place it back in.

don't turn on the phone and charge it until full.

Once full, disconnect from power.

Go to bootloader, post your hboot version.

If hboot is still the same, go to fastboot and RUU with the one that your phone came with when you bought it.

It's great that you have a GoldCard, if the step above don't work, try RUU to the latest one.

Now regarding the freezes, I haven't received any freezes from my phone when it was still on stock. It might be a software problem and RUU might fix it. But if its a hardware, you might need to send for repair or maybe replacement.
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
Thanks very much for the reply Skanob,

Unfortunately, I didn't receive a RUU with my phone when it bought it. I checked through the SC card that was in the phone, but there's nothing that resembles an RUU. If you could please direct me to the latest version you mention, I would appreciate it.

when you say to post my HBOOT version, do you mean for me to post it here on the forums?

Apologies for the questions, I'm still getting used to the lingo.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
The phone really didn't came with an RUU file. What I meant is that try to remember the Software Version of the phone when it came when you bought it. That means that software version is the RUU that was installed with it. Also the region.

My phone was installed with the one prior to RUU_Saga_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.48.707.1......

Try to get the RUU of your phone.

Post your HBOOT means post here or atleast tell me what is the version of your bootloader.

Example:

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-0.98.0000

RADIO-38.03.02.15_M

eMMC-boot

Mar 10 2011, 14:58:38

the latest as of now is RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed.
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
Thanks again Skanob,

I'll try what you said to do and post the results.

from my initial post, I stated my HBOOT version as 0.98.0002. From what you've told me, should I expect my HBOOT version to change?

Also, I've checked the Europe RUU I attempted to use initially, i can confirm that it was the same version number as my phone. However, it got stuck on the status of "Rebooting to Bootloader" for hours.
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
Hi Skabob,

Just an update, after performing the steps you told me, my Desire S is still the same, with HBOOT version as 0.98.0002.

The rest of the details are the same as my original post.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
I was expecting that your HBOOT would've been changed to the new one, it was an honest error on my end. I thought you've RUUed on the latest one. Sorry about that.

Seeing that you already have a GoldCard, I strongly suggest to RUU to the latest Europe version first.

If it still doesn't work, prepare for a long instruction, read on:

If you cannot use any RUU, the only thing you can do is update your HBOOT to the latest official S-ON.

Seeing that you are still currently S-ON. you wont be able to flash anything on your phone properly.

I myself don't have a proper guide on how you can update it as stock as possible, but maybe you can try what I've done before.

The OTA file that I've mentioned here is the recently released OTA file for Sense 3.0. Use search on where to get the download link.

Once you have the OTA file, just extract it and gather the firmware.zip file. copy it to your phones SD Card and rename it to PG88IMG.zip (.zip should be the extension of the file, not included in the name of the file).

Boot your phone into bootloader and agree to the phone if it asks you to update. AFAIK it should automatically do its thing.

Also, I remembered that it should be stuck in the middle of its update, just past the HBOOT and RADIO procedure. Once you are on that stuck state, maybe wait for about 10-15mins and see if it doesn't move. That is when I've removed the battery and waited for 30secs to 1min then re-plug it in. So you should pay close attention to what it is doing. Then check your HBOOT and see if it is updated.

If it is successful on updating your HBOOT, you would now need to UNLOCK your bootloader. The HTC unlock method supports the new HBOOT, seeing that you are still on the OLD one, thats one reason it wasn't successful.

What we're trying to do here is to get your phone to a state where you should be able to flash a custom recovery (check partitions if they are corrupted, most especially cache), full wipe partitions, flash a custom rom (pre-rooted stock recommended), then RUU back if you still want stock roms.

Goodluck!

P.S.

These instructions that I've given you are the methods that I would've used and thought of if I was in your situation. I am no expert in ADB nor on how to fix the phone properly. I assume that you already know the world-wide disclaimer: "not held responsible, know what you are doing" blah blah blah...

Also, full charge your phone first prior to doing it.

And it's Skanob... :D
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
oh! my apologies Skanob! the B and N keys are right next to each other..but still I should have double checked.

Okay, I've tried running the RUU exe file for the RUU you referred me to. unfortunately it didnt move past "rebooting to bootloader".

I also grabbed the OTA file from this link. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1282019&page=65

Post number 643 had the link

I renamed the file to PG88IMG, put it on my sd card and loaded the Bootloader on the phone. It scanned the file, but did not give me am option to update.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
it should be PG88IMG.zip (.zip is the file extension). But have you double checked if the HBOOT was updated?
[HTC Desire S] Blindshot888:
I can confirm that the file I used was indeed a .zip file.

From looking at the HBOOT version, its still sitting at 0.98.0002.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
you might want to try to re-create your GoldCard. You might have a bad one.

Does the phone detects the file? There should be a check of .zip files once you boot on bootloader. The screen will take you there within 3-5 seconds after boot and will stay on checking the files for 1-2 seconds.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Hey man this says it all.

You do not need to change hboots, flash RUU or other stuff. Just go to the service center and they will repair it for free

. Like this guy did. If you have warranty of course :)
