[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heysoos:
And I definitely do appreciate the work that you guys do--I was sitting nearly in tears (ok, maybe a little buzz brought the tears) about a month after I bought my vibrant in October 2010. The kid in the T-Mobile store actually rooted it for me when I went back for some help with my bill, so I had access to files that I didn't know what to do with. I tried to apply some crap theme that, at the time, I thought destroyed my phone and turned it into a piece of $400 coffee table art. My wife would have probably beaten me if I hadn't discovered XDA and the brilliant work you guys do. After that little ordeal, I got heavy into reading the threads here and slowly but surely, got pretty fearless thanks to the research you guys had already done for me.

One other question for you: If you had those bricked phones today, would you be able to revive them after an sbl brick?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moped_Ryder:
I believe even the worst brick can be fixed via JTAG Service.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Decepticaons:
from my understanding and from my noob experiences this phone is unbrickable
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DontJoinTheDarkSide:
Don't forget about the hardware mod that let's you flash boot loaders
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
It's NOT unbrickable. It's just hard to, unless if your just a total absolute idiot or a accident happens. I know my dogs pulled my usb cord while i was odining once, it caused a brick.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] >stylz:
As the vibrant and the sgs are nearly the same, I've never bricked it at all... I just lost my IMEI that's all but that doesn't seem to make any problems at all. That's the only bad thing that happened to me : )
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasonhunterx:
It is unbrickable you can fix it even if bootloader get deleted the only way you can brick it is if USB port is broken
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T1001:
Hi,

I've soft bricked my phone several times and restored it with no problems till last night. I had GB bootloader on my vibrant flashed back stock rom using odin and then upgraded to stock 2.2 rom using KIES. Now phone is not responding to anything. I've spend hours on forums and chats i've tried almost every thing and nothing could bring back my phone I even let it chard over night like some people say did not help.

Please let me know if there any way to restore it? Again it has GB bootloader with stock 2.1 and than upgraded to stock 2.2 via KIES.

Thanks in advance!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manus ferrera:
Did u get a USB jig yet that should work
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T1001:
No not yet...I still want to find a way to restore it without JIG. It should be a way!

I think problem is that most of solutions where posted for Vibrant stock Bootloader not a GB Bootloader. May be there are different steps are required for GB Bootloaders. I don't want to give up:)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ou814us2:
With GB BL you have to use vol+ and power to get into download mode. Just an fyi in case you didnt know.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dseldown:
What he said!

Thats exactly how I bricked mine, and found out a day after by stumbling across a thread on the dangers of using KIES, when I was newbee dumb!

Also, if you can power the phone on in any way shape or form, meaning if you see anything on the screen, or the LED's illuminate, then you are NOT HARDBRICKED, that is still a softbrick senario!!

And BTW the primary Btloader is what powers the phone one, and the 2ndary Btloader is what loads the OS or ROM!

And when the primary is corrupted, that's a TRUE HARDBRICK scenario, because if you cant power the phone on, then nothing short of JTAGing it , will resurrect it!!

Although Adam Outler, supposedly has a Resurrection program, to JTAG the solder-less way, using pin point test probes and his Resurrection program, to inject and re-flash the Btloaders and thus, bring a dead non powered phone to life!

A JIG will not work, if the primary Bootloader is corrupted it wont power on , JIG's only work with phones that will power on, and in his case he corrupted the primary, and only JTAGing it will resurrect it, unless he has the intelligence to try this alternative below, otherwise send it to Adam or TechMobile, the only two guys I know who are true Ninja's with this type of micro surgery!:eek:

[Gen8 General] sciurius:
When installing the SDE on the Archos 101IT, one has to agree that this will void the warranty. However, on their web site www dot archos dot com > Archos 101 Internet Tablet > Tablet PC they write:

"Your ARCHOS 101 internet tablet is completely open to programmers, ...

To allow this, ARCHOS has ‘opened up’ their Internet Tablets allowing users to install or even replace the Android system installed on the device. ... Archos is proud to support the community of Linux on mobile platforms, and has chosen Ångström out of all Linux OS for their philosophy of creation that we both share."

Now, I am not a lawyer, but I wonder if Archos can still claim that I voided the warranty by installing SDE. Or does this not apply to the 101IT?
[Gen8 General] chrulri:
as discussed in several other threads: the warranty only includes software issues like if you brick your device by installing some weird kernel that erases the bootloader or something other very stupid.

if your devices hardware goes crazy (like the usb host port, a known issue of the 6th board revision) they will still give you warranty and replace the device. Me, for example, got it replaced (because of the broken usb host port), even though I (of course ;) ) heavily use the SDE and such stuff.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrrick:

[Thunderbolt General] Dspradau:
I'm wondering if I should use the LTE On/Off toggle or the built in toggle in the settings menu. The reason I ask is because after flashing the 906 radios this is what I have for a selection:

Now should I put it on unknown or on CDMA (PRL) and control it from the settings menu?

I know there use to be options for LTE on that menu, but I do not have them. :/
[Thunderbolt General] RunNgun42:
There an LTE toggle on the market specifically for the Thunderbolt that works well. It's just a shortcut to the settings menu, but it's pretty easy to be quick with it. There are no actual 4G toggles for Android yet due to security design by Google.

As for those options you have in the quick settings menu, I dont think any of those correspond to LTE. Those are usually thrown in by the rom chef, and often dont even do anything with your model phone. The real suite of options should be buried in the wireless config under android system preferences.
[Thunderbolt General] davwman:
Lte onoff....
[Thunderbolt General] dirtyfingers:
I would suggest skyraider 1.3. It has a built in 4g toggle and is the smoothest 2.1 rom I've seen. Its not on XDA though so you would have to do a google search.

Trying to help all friend that have problem with the baseband on Galaxy S t959, t959v, GT9000, etc i have some problem with my t959v when boot up and waiting for network signal i see when i go to the menu and check the info i see the baseband unknown issue and this resolve my problem...

Step 1

Remember if you change the battery spec my t959v use a battery with 1500mAh i change with this one that have more mAh you thing this is crazy but when the phone boot up this problem come so i replace with the original mAh...

Step 2

Verify that you have the correct modem.bin in your phone. The other thing that probably make this error is the Sim reader check your Sim with other phone if your Sim is good then you have a problem with the Sim reader you can use the Sim reader from t959, Galaxy Captivate and Galaxy GTi9000.

Step 3

This is more difficult to check but verify the antenna cable is the white cable that connect from the main board to the sub-board on the phone if the cable is damage for some reason the phone give you the unknown baseband problem, you can check this using a multimeter in continuity check the ground and the center connector if you don't have the beep then change the cable.

if this don't resolve your problem check the sub-board when the white cable connect this have some circuit try change.

P.S

I know this thread for some one is stup.... but to me cheking this thing resolve 10 t959v and t959 phone from my costumer. One phone have this problem and can't be resolve because other person flash it using the bootloader of galaxy S 2 and the file was corrupt. I hope this help you....

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pfonck:
Introduction

For long it has been assumed that any baseband (kernel) ending with 015 were the same.

However, during the development of GinTonic.SE slade87 discovered problems concerning high battery consuption when using WiFi on a mismatch of kernel and libril files.

Also paul-xxx pointed out that you need different DualTouch modules with different versions of the kernel (for instance with MiniCM7Pro v21 you get TouchBug if you use 2.1.1.C.0.0 kernel instead of 2.1.1.A.0.6)

Therefore I thought I'd upload them together for easy reference.

Beware that you do not mistake kernel/baseband with rom/firmware. When you update your firmware using SEUS it updates both your kernel and firmware to a certain version, but when you flash a custom rom it only updates the firmware (system partition). If you are uncertain of the kernel you have, just flash one of the below or update/repair using SEUS.

Installation

Kernels in .ftf format, flash using Flashtool.

Copy the .ftf into the firmwares subdirectory of flashtool, turn of phone, press flash button, select kernel, connect phone while keeping back button pressed.

There is no need to unlock the bootloader as these are standard SE kernels.

Copy libril files into rom's /system/lib directory before flashing,

or flash the libril_2.1.1.x.x.x.zip using CWM Recovery,

or copy them manually using a file manager/explorer.

Dual Touch modules go in /system/lib/modules

Files

2.1.1.A.0.6

U20_2.1.1.A.0.6_Kernel.ftf (6.15 MB)

libril_2.1.1.A.0.6.zip (437.19 KB)

cy8ctma300_ser.ko (14.03 KB)

2.1.1.C.0.0

U20_2.1.1.C.0.0_Kernel.ftf (6.16 MB)

libril_2.1.1.C.0.0.zip (446.95 KB)

cy8ctma300_ser.ko (112.42 KB)

Just make sure you have matching kernel, libril files and DT module.

AFAIK all the custom kernels are based on 2.1.1.A.0.6

-Edit-

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] BPaul:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pfonck:
There are quite a few improvements in C00 compared to A06,

I believe there's also improvements in WiFi and GSM reception.

But what is more important is that you have a matching set of kernel and modules because if you don't you get a lot more battery drain, or touchscreen bug in some roms.

Edited Post#1 for better explaination (hopefully).

is it C00 is upgrade fw?now i am using A06....did i must(if i want) upgrade it with SEUS?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pfonck:
C00 is indeed an upgrade from A06, and whenever I connect my phone to my PC with A06 it asks me to update to C00, but that is not really the point of this thread.

It's more important that you have matching kernel and rom libraries.
