[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfgirl:
Okay...I'm at a loss. I've spent the last two days trying to root and install the deck gingerbread. I've focused on this page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694572 and this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902493 and successfully rooted. However, that's where I'm stuck. I flashed the recovery.img (and since it rebooted, assumed that it took) and now want to complete the instructions for gingerbread from here http://forum.dev-host.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7. Brackets after each step from that page describe my problems.

1. Reboot into recovery. [I assume I can do this? Because I flash_imaged recovery.img? If it doesn't hang, however, it just launches the phone into apparently normal state?]

2. *optional* make a nandroid backup. [I never got an option to do this. Ever.]

3. Wipe Everything. [I don't have an option for this anymore. I did at one time? It's no longer in the boot menu.]

4. Flash gingerbread rom zip. [I would love to. How? I have no options for this. No command prompt options.]

...and I'm stuck.

5. DO NOT REBOOT YET.

6. Flash gapps zip.

6a. Flash Kernel *if you are using a custom kernel*

7. Reboot.

8. Enjoy gingerbread!

When I reboot I either get a fastboot menu or hboot, neither of which have options other than each other, resetting device, booting into recovery (which 5/10x hangs the phone).

I would LOVE to know why this isn't working (e.g., my phone doesn't have options listed on these instructions) or what I could do to fix it. Believe me, I know there are instructions all over, and I've probably read most of them today. I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. On top of it all, ROM Manager/Toolbox won't even work because the free Manager is off the market. If anyone could help, I would be very grateful. I have adb installed on my PC, if that helps.

Thank you! I am totally frazzled. :(

eta: GRRRR I knew that if I posted here I'd find the answer on my own. Turns out the recovery image I was using was apparently wrong (but appeared to work correctly) so that's why I wasn't getting the error. Think things might be okay now...got the menu and am busily installing. Sorry for the interruption...
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ebaum1:
Well.....

Did you ever get it done?
[LG Optimus 3D] IFLPI:
Check it yourself.

Type in terminal:

su

cat /proc/meminfo

There is about 128Mb of swap.

What's your opinion about this?
[LG Optimus 3D] walterddr:
would it be a big deal?
[LG Optimus 3D] futranbg:
Actually I don't like the idea of swap in O3D

It may cause lags because we already have a dual channel 512MB ram

Is it necessary to have more 128MB of swap but slower? Also vm have to decide which is swap which is not swap...waste more cpu

Pls correct me if i was wrong

I added some "#" in /system/bin/swap_enable.sh...check it out
[LG Optimus 3D] IFLPI:
Yes it can cause some lags when dropping things to swap etc.

but maybe it can be sometimes useful?

Why lg did it in the stock ROM?

Do you notice any speed up after disabling it?
[LG Optimus 3D] futranbg:
Yes before add those # I had some lags when finish an asphalt6 round, now lags gone.

On the other hand I thought because LG had a lot of bloatware in stock rom so they wanted to make sure there are enough memory, and they used swap.

I removed a lot of things that I don't need, tweak the minfree, vm, disable swap and everything still fine.
[LG Optimus 3D] walterddr:
Well, lg has a lot of crap in its stock rom.. i think its necessary
[LG Optimus 3D] IFLPI:
I did the same but it still shows about 36mb of swap after the restart. Strange. I hope there will not be the case when eg. camera app or sth else will crash because of the lack of ram;)

So there is still 36mb swap script somewhere.
[LG Optimus 3D] crime_of_heart:
probably you need to add 3 # in the beginning of each line. i did it that way and now have no swap at all.
[LG Optimus 3D] IFLPI:
I was mistaken. It's Ok now.
[LG Optimus 3D] stefankorun:
So what should we, inexperienced users, do?
[LG Optimus 3D] futranbg:
Everybody can try. You need root explorer. Open /system/bin/swap_enable.sh as text edit. Then just add 1 # before each line (3 lines). Reboot and experience yourself.

You may enjoy it or not...but at least you have 1 more choice
[LG Optimus 3D] mrbandwidth:
Won't you have less free RAM by doing this?
[LG Optimus 3D] crime_of_heart:
As far as i know the physical ram amount will not bechanged. Only it will be re-emptied earlier than it is with swap, which is practically no change in total.
[LG Optimus 3D] androidfanboi:
wow this is really quite an eye opener, to think that lg opted to use swap because they new 512mb wouldnt cut it is quite bad in my eyes. i wonder if we can increase the amount of swap and see if that makes for more free active ram? as i find games like GTA3 it bogs down as its quite a memory hungry game
[LG Optimus 3D] vanvn297:
it was much better if LG added 1gb of ram to our phone from the beginning thought. i decide to exchange my optimus 3d for a atrix, photon or galaxy s 2 because im a heavy multitasking user, 512mb is not enought.
[HTC Sensation] AJ205:
first of all i would like to thank all you devs and chef's for your hard work. first hour with the z i rooted it using the excelent guids found in the forum. i tried almost every rom possible that had a potential to suite my needs, and i have to say, some were brilliant and some less. i was looking for a rom that could give me battery life. i stumbled upon the "energy" series which was great, until the new firmware came along and another one and then another update... i just couldn't stand it anymore, i had to do somethin! so, I'm on the latest fw, running on a complete excellent package from "insertcoin". phone is awake for about 15 hours and batt showing 50% ! it's definitely a baadaz! btw, i know about the battery calibration tool, been calibrating this ***** since day one... keep up the good work.

I made a thread for the captivate and got a few requests to make it for the sgs, so here it is. This mod will add virtual buttons on the screen like on the galaxy nexus.

Screenshot:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Thnikk:
DISCLAIMER: If the subforum and thread title are not enough for you, then let me tell you. This is for the sgs and the respective cm9 builds made for it. If you decide to flash this on any other phone or rom, or you decide to flash the package made for build 10 onto build 15, then don't come into the thread asking why your phone is stuck in a bootloop. Please take the time to read and make XDA a better place. Thank you and have a nice day.

The revert package will remove the mod by putting the original framework-res.apk from the rom back onto your phone. It is included in the folder with the update for each build.

Hi guys,

the mod works great! Firstly I got a bootloop, flashed revert, flash mod again and it works great since then, so thanks a lot.

As a request can you add a search button too, with that it would be perfect.

Thanks again.

How to have carrier name and emergency call working fine?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] >stylz:
any way to disable the hardware buttons?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Thnikk:
[link] :)

Do you guys think I should just add wipe cache and dalvik to the script?

I was looking at that last night and liked the pixelated text one, so I tried porting it from xhdpi to hdpi and it broke the buttons. I think it's just a problem with metamorph, though. The only problem is that it's in a completely separate file and I'm trying not to juggle too many projects at once and become overwhelmed when a new build comes out, so it's not something I really want to work on right now. However, anyone with winrar should be able to drag the image files right into the systemUI.apk as soon as they're ported without a problem after they're ported to hdpi (which I can do and hope to get out in a day or two.)

I don't know about the search button but I'll see what I can do ;)

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh... can anyone else confirm this? I just want to make sure it's not a one-time thing.

I've looked into it and haven't found anything yet. The only solution/workaround I've found is to change the backlight timeout to make them less noticable (in evice options in settings).
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] jenablinsky:
Hey mate! Thanks for the wallpaper and all of those answers! I think mine it's common issue.

Excellent guide!!!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] reaper540:
i keep getting an error when trying to flash the recovery. when i type in fastboot flash recovery cwm-recovery-vivow.img it comes up saying cannot load cwm-recovery-vivow.img

also im s-on with hboot .98. could that be the problem?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] blaqbird:
Had the same issue but solved after looking over the instructions for doing this if you were downgrading. Instead of placing the image file on the root of your sd card, place it in the folder that contains fastboot in your android sdk. Do that and you will be able to flash it and continue with the instructions.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
Oh wow. You guys are right. That's a typo. I'll fix that.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ericmtnbkr:
Excellent post! Easy to follow, worked...what more could you ask for?

:D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] reaper540:
Yeh I thought that might have been the problem. But I ended up relocking the bootloader, downgraded using attn1s tool and after that it was all smooth sailing. Running mikrunny v1.01. But this is an excellent guide

Excellent guide! Thanks!

no boot.img?

When I try to flash the boot.img at the last step, it says error: Cannot load 'boot.img'. I tried to start the phone and it sticks as the htc splash screen ... any ideas?

Did you put it in the sdk tools folder?

just wondering...am i going to have to flash the su zip everytime i flash a new rom? Just flashed miui and when I superuser was not on the list of apps. I downloaded it, but have this feeling its not going to work until a flash su.zip
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
Nope, cuz most roms are already rooted.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] natemup:
I was having trouble getting my ADB to function correctly, so I went with the manual "update.zip" method to flash Clockwork.

Noob question. Is it still possible to flash kernels on HTC sec unlock? Will the boot.img flash need to be done each time from now on? Great guide by the way.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Amphibliam:
Every time you want to flash a Rom or kernel you need to flash the boot.img.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ph1nn:
Everytime I reboot the phone it gets stuck on the HTC logo. I have to rerun "flashboot boot boot.img" to get it to boot.

Please help.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
That's an issue with the unlock I'm assuming.

Sent from my Mikrunny'd Superphone using Magic (TapaTalk)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ph1nn:
It's unlocked via HTC's unlock tool.

Should i relock the phone, forget this guide, and use attn1's guide?

I already installed ClockworkMod 5.5 and CM7.2 nightlies, everything works unless i have to reboot then it loses the boot image. Any thoughts?

-----

edit: It was because of S-ON. I relocked my phone and used attn1's guide to bring the phone back to hboot 0.97 and then s-off. This guide is not useful it seems if you want to go AOSP.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HypostaticOnion:
Yes. It's recommended to s-off anyway. Much easier to deal with stuff.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
Is there a special way to flash a kernel as well like we have to with the boot.img when installing a ROM?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mkkuntz8:
stuck on boot screen

alright so i followed this guide and got root successfully after i unlucked with htcdev. I went on to try to install the cyanogenmod9 and got through everything until I rebooted the final time and it got stuck at the boot screen and I can't get it to go past that. Anyone know what i did wrong or can help out or point me in the right direction? Im rooted with CWM, s-on, hboot 0.98.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
You have to manually push the boot.img via adb.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mkkuntz8:
how do i do that manually?

I did:

cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/platform-tools

adb reboot bootloader

cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/tools

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
That's the right way. But did you unzip the ROM .zip and copy the boot.img from that folder into the tools folder?

To clarify: Unzip ROM. Copy boot.img from that to the tools folder in the sdk. Then run the push boot boot.img stuff.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mkkuntz8:
yes it did that also. Tried it again just in case and still the same result.

This is becoming much more of a headache than I anticipated. I'd be glad if I can just get back to what I had before I tried installing the rom at this point
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
It has to be asked....

Did you do a full wipe first before you started?

1. Wipe data/cache/dalvic

2. Flash ROM

3. Push new boot.img

4. Restart and.....WAIT.

Also possible you have a corrupt download. Check the md5 and/or redownload. I've never had a bad download but it happens.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mkkuntz8:
yep ive done that everytime. Ill redownload and see what happens. how long does it usually take to boot first time? it can't be more than 20-30 min ive waited
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Kayak83:
No more than a few minutes.

Also make sure you downloaded the vivow .zip. That's our device name. And try a different ROM if it still doesn't work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mkkuntz8:
started one last time from scratch and wouldn't you know, it works haha. Im not sure what I did different this time so it seems like it was a bad d/l that did it. regardless it worked.

only issue now is I dont have any service...

edit: just flashed the gapps zip and rebooted and now i have service.

Hi, does anyone know how and where to get HD YouTube apk that works with our phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] King_Paladin:
try changing the phone's resolution. i've noticed that when i set mine to x720, even opera browser's interface changed. the menu is no longer a bar at the bottom but like on the upper left, if im not mistaken. and yeah, i remember youtube being crisper. look for lcd resolution at the market to set screen res.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] unlvmike:
I'm no genius on the matter, but I think you would need a phone that supports the HD resolution which currently are only a select few with ours out of the picture.

Well I tried to put it in the system apps and deleted the original apk then changed the permissions to the same as all the other apps still it says problem prasing the package. It can't install. I rebooted still nothing. I have the apk and the odex file but I don't know how to post it here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] stevekixs:

Hmmmm. It might just not work bro
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
The new YouTube comes part of gapps with ICS so you would need to have ICS framework most likely to make it work. The new gmail app is also like that as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] King_Paladin:
i guess you guys missed my point. the gnexus version might have a compatibility update just to make it work with ics. but to make youtube's hd look better our phone, we must have an hd screen or at least make the youtube app think that we do.

change your phones resolution from x480 to x720 (using lcd resolution app from the market) and youll see apps like youtube and opera browser detect your phone's res and adapt to it.

HD vids on a fake 720 res is much better than on our native x480's youtube hd vids. opera browser's interface changes just by changing the phone's res. try it and youll see what im talking about.

what it boils down to is, we need someone to make the youtube app think our screen is at least x720. that might work.
