[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XinLoiBby:
Hi,

I've tried using a lot of root programs, SuperOneClick and some other methods. They just won't work. I also get a 3e Recovery problem.

If someone can lend me a hand to root my phone, that would be awesome.

Model Number - SAMSUNG-SGH-I896

Firmware - 2.2

Baseband Version - I896UXJL1

Kernal Version - 2.6.32.9

Build Number - FROYO.UXJL1

Please help, I've tried using USB Debugging Mode, Recovery Mode, Re-Formatting first then try to root but it all doesn't work.

If it helps my phone is from Rogers.

Thanks,

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
this sounds like a problem with your computer. i have never had any problems using SuperOneClick...

This is what is right now ..

On the other computer ..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Maybe at that point where it is hanging (step 7) "unplug your phone, go into settings, uncheck and check usb debugging again, then plug back in. At this point it will continue with the root. It will send a test to your phone and you may or may not have to click allow for Superuser." quoted from CrossCut49 over in the sgs II forum. But worth a try.

edit: And if that fails to work, U can use the FuguRoot Mod method to get Root -- see thread here...http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14794703&postcount=1. (Don't mess with the "BIG Download Link" that is the kf1 firmware download. Just use the zImage-root.tar file that is attached to the OP). It is a kernel swap method. All u need to do is Odin the zImage-root.tar file (it goes in the PDA slot of Odin). It will bootloop after it flashes (that is what it is supposed to do). Pull battery/replace and get back into download mode. Then u just reflash the stock i896uxjl1 kernel.tar through Odin. And u r Rooted.

I will attach the Stock jl1 kernel for ya. And the Odin to use. (open up .zip to get Odin out.)

I now have SU by using SuperOneClick. I tried to unROOT but every time I finish and restart, SU is still there. I am having problems with my wifi, it won't connect in, it will be stuck at OBTAINING IP ADDRESS ...

Geez one problem after the other ...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Why r u trying to unroot now, after having such a hard time to get root ?? :confused:

For ur wifi issue, Reboot ur modem/router and reboot ur phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XinLoiBby:
Thanks for the reply, I know, just got the phone rooted and then trying to unroot. I'll try turning off my router when I get home, hope that works.

How do you check ROOT is still on the phone? Is it because of SU?

When I try to Reinstall Package from Recovery I still have a 3e recovery problem..

EDIT: What happens if you root your phone once, but by accident pressed ROOT again?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
nothing will happen.

wifi not working is NOT caused by rooting the phone.

when you root a phone you are adding, literally, 2 files to your phone. /system/bin/su and /system/app/Superuser.apk

these 2 files have no bearing on network connectivity

as for your problem with recovery 3e, there are plenty of tutorials on how to fix that. root is required to bypass recovery 3e, OR you can flash a custom kernel (all custom kernels contain clockworkmod in them)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XinLoiBby:
So any ideas how to fix the Wifi on my phone? I tried my school network and at home. Same problem.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickmirror:
Ok, so I noticed that there isn't a topic for this made, so i'll just ask under the Transformer Q&A.

I don't see a lot of people asking. But basically here's what I got:

My SL101 slider is rooted, well it was at least the last time it worked. I had it rooted, and attempted to install acer recovery from the market. Installed and I had it install cwm. I restarted the tablet, and that's where it goes wrong.

It sticks at the Asus loading screen. I have the ability to boot using volume up + power, and volume down + power, but nothing appears to work.

I wiped the data, do you think it would be just easier to return it to asus and say it doesn't boot after installing the firmware update, it's still within warranty? :\
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quickmirror:
Another Question.

Ok, so is there anyway to use the latest asus blob to reinstall the entire os? I've heard that if you have the blob from the asus website it can be used to reinstall the entire system. Any thoughts?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lilextreme:
Just out of curiosity,,,,,Can you use "Acer" recovery tools on "Asus" tablets?

Im looking for the original notes app that came with tablet.if someone knows its where about please let me know also is there a way to run honeycomb apps on a 2.3.4. Thank you
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] agc93:
Sorry, can't help with the notes.apk file, since I don't have a stock ROM anywhere :(

As for running HC apps, you can try sideloading them, but your chances are incredibly slim. Honeycomb was a whole separate branch of Android and therefore HC apps are quite different to their 2.x counterparts. There is a whole heap of code that apps will use that won't be present in 2.x ROMs that is only available in 3.x, so generally, no there is no way to run HC apps on Froyo/GB.

Wait for an ICS ROM then try again, since it should work then.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Ragin69er:
If you check the overcome website, the stock gingerbread v5 might have the notes application in it, not really sure how you'll get it out either. No Guarantee's of course but worth a shot!

[HD7 General] backlashsid:
Hi..I got my HD7 from another user and the power button seems too pushed down and doesn't seem tactile enough.

Does anybody know if there is any way I can get the power button replaced or buy parts online ?

Also can the HTC Repair people do it ?? Any experiences or ideas ??:confused:
[HD7 General] IlmarsM:
Hi!

Same problem for me. Button seems like pushed in and not responsive enough, you have to really push on it to bring phone back from sleep.

Have any of you tried to fix this button?
[HD7 General] backlashsid:
someone suggested to have a rubber body glove cover...which has a raised edge for the buttons...I don't like it so i won't follow it.
[HD7 General] markslo112:
I'm having the same problem. It's not that annoying, but sometimes I really hate it. What about a dismantle and see if you can somehow repair it yourself?
[HD7 General] backlashsid:
that's what I am trying to figure out. But don't you guess...we need to have a replacement part for the button or something...

I am still waiting for replies from others...will also call HTC Repair center on Monday.
[HD7 General] markslo112:
Reply back and tell us what they told you. The button is probably just pushed down a little, I don't think there's need for a new button.
[HD7 General] Loosenuts:
They're all like this, they are just indented more into the case to prevent accidental power-ons, replacing it will be the same.
[HD7 General] backlashsid:
that just sounds stupid and makes no sense. if that was the case all phone manufacturers would give pushed down buttons to prevent accidental power ons !

so common think of something new !

---

I have compared the button with a brand new HD7 the button on it is far more better in terms of tactability !! i guess over time its soon gonna become worse day by day...thats just how it is...
[HD7 General] Loosenuts:
Apparently you make no sense. There is nothing wrong with the power button, it is just located futher down into the case than the other buttons hence the reason while it feels like there is not much tactile effect. I did not say it was a "pushed down" button, i said the button was indented more into the case meaning again it is mounted more or lower into the case to prevent the phone from accidentally power-on while in pocket or hand. And yes, other manufactures have incorporated this concept into there designs, look at nokia phones.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ickk:
I just ditched maxathon after it started crashing simultaneously for boat browser and I have to say I'm impressed so far with the UI, but I have noticed it only allows for about 8 links on the speeddial and it would seem like thereis tons of room for more. Can I fix this to allow me to add more links to my startup page? That was one feature I really liked about maxathon, that it allowed plenty of links to webpages on its homescreen.

Heres a screenshot for example.

Also I was wondering if anyone knew how to get soundcloud tracks to play in the browser, it didn't work for me on stock, dolphin, maxathon, or boat.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiyucn:
Dear ickkii,

Thanks for supporting Boat browser. Currently, we only support max 9 speed dials in home screen. Because, at first, we consider this is supposed to the max value for cell phone. Now, more and more devices have big screen, high density. It's necessary to support more and more speed dials.

Tuning the home screen to support more screen size/density (e.g. more speed dials) is in our product plan.

For the other question, about soundcloud, could you please provide more information about his soundcloud? How to use it and what the behavior is you expect? I never use soundcloud before, sorry for that.

Any question, you could send email to boatbrowser#gmail.com (replace # with @). We will reply you ASAP.

Thanks. :)

So theoretically CM build with ICS should be possible?

I'm contemplating unrooting my Nook Tablet and returning it within my 14 day window and picking up the kindle fire. I am a little concerned with the 512 MB of ram vs. 1 gb on the nook tablet.

Has anyone noticed much lag/ do you think 512 will be limiting?
[Kindle Fire General] death2all110:
Only lag is the amazon apps. Mine runs fine. Browser may lag a bit. but other browsers dont. So again...amazon apps.

512 is sufficient. The moto phones with 1gb of ram only have 512 usable by android. the other 512 is for the webtop crap.

IMHO 512 is fine for me.
[Kindle Fire General] yareally:
OEMs need to quit convincing themselves they know how to create a UI better than google or the community. I have yet to see anyone that can and not make it unobtrusive, not annoying or not laggy. If they want to do that, they need to go the route of the market launcher apps like go launcher or adw and let users switch it out, instead of baking it into the device. Obviously Amazon would never do that because this device was intended by them to only serve up their content and no one else's (just looking at the way they removed settings from the OS gives that idea if the lack of google services did not). At least they did not lock it down to the point that someone cannot mod it :)

As stated, 512MB would be more than enough for anything other than what amazon did. If someone made stock version of android for it, this device would run great all around.
[Kindle Fire General] downsay:
Even on a larger screen than your smartphones do you still think 512 mb of ram is enough? How much does the iPad2 have? iPad?

To make your life easier, i'll tell you key points you need to do before getting yourself a new rom.

There are three basic type of ROMS:

- MIUI, Cyanogenmod, Sense (default)

This is the section where you can find various roms, and for each rom you can look for themes in the theme and app section:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=765

Before you choose yourself a rom,

1. Google, how to root desire HD

2. After rooting, go to android market and download "Rom manager" so that you can access custom recovery to flash the rom.

why google it when you have many guides in the android development forum.

Hi guys, I'm new here and don't have permission yet to post in the devel forums but here goes...

After switching to the v20l kernel from v20i I am unable to get tethering to work.

By this I mean that I can connect to my phone by USB and WiFi, but the connection is either super slow (ie: < 1kb/s) or not data is transferred.

The phone meanwhile has perfect internet access from within (whether tethering is or isn't enabled).

This was never an issue when I had the v20i kernel.

I am using the v20l [RC9]/[Stable][SR2][KERNEL][GPL] HorsePower 2x eXtreme 24BPP specifically.

I thought I might have been the wifi driver, but USB tethering is no different...

:confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] KillerbeeNL:
I have stock v20L + SR1 and ppv3 installed and no tethering problems.

That's just it, in v20i it works perfectly, amd youtube works in both v20i and L.
