I am unable to find a rom in md5 form so i can flash with odin, only .zip that contains a meta folder a system folder and a updates folder to use with Odin. Will I maybe have to by putting the rom files on the sd card and trying to flash or is there a way to convert the rom to a md5 file?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
The ROM you grabbed is for flashing via CWM, not ODIN. Look in the Bible (in the Developer's forum) for ODIN ROMs or, while reading through the Developer's forum, make sure it says ODIN on it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] neemo6:
For the last couple of months my Charge has been asking for the gb ota update. if i choose to install now it fails due to my phone being rooted. Im still on froyo and have been wanting to take the update. I would like to keep root, voodoo, all of my apps, phones settings, and theme. Is there a way to get the update without having to have the phone go into a hard reset? Its just very time conusming for me to try and put my phone back into the condition that it is in now with all my settings/apps. I just want to keep everything the way it is but including GB. Any way to do this?
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Titanium Backup. Back up, and install a custom GB ROM. Then restore.
[Verizon Droid Charge] xdadevnube:
+1

I used to be very cautious with flashing/upgrading. Then I decided to bite the bullet and just learn the ropes of backing up and keeping all the files I need to reflash and get back up and running quickly.

I suggest using CWM 4.0.1.4 for making and restoring backups in recovery, which can really be great- it saved me a lot of time.
[Verizon Droid Charge] neemo6:
How do your restore when the phone has been hard reset, with no root and no titanium?
[Verizon Droid Charge] DROID3R:
The custom gb roms comes pre rooted rven with CWM(infinity..tweakstock...humble....eclipse))Get TiBa from market and restore
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugabu:
Howdy all,

My phone broke, so I'm back on the hero. I forget any and all stuff of how to's on this phone so bear with me. Basically, I'm a noob for the hero now.

So, recently, I followed the Cyanogenmod Full Update wiki guide, rooting it with the rageagainstthecage exploit. However, after my first time, my phone would eventually be so slow that it would seem to freeze. It's just so so so so slow. It's unusable. The lockscreen would come up, and i would touch the lock icon, which would vibrate. I would slide to unlock, but the screen doesn't react. at all. then it would vibrate, indicating an unlock, but the screen doesn't change at all. Occasionally, I'm able to accidentally enter an app, but I cannot read texts, answer calls, or reply to texts. Or do anything else.

Occasionally, I'll get a "app is unresponsive" message, but I can't force close/wait.

Oh, btw, when this happens, I can't get into my recovery (CWM 3.0.0.5). Also, I don't see the boot animation.

I have done an RUU stock reset, which fixed it once. The problem occurred again while on CM7, and I did another RUU reset, but the problem is now consistent throughout the stock sense. Omigawd what do i do?

Since I am now on stock that has usb debugging disabled, I can no longer access adb.

I am currently on absolute stock (fresh-out-of-the-box like), not rooted, and have S-OFF.

I am fairly well versed in fastboot and adb commands. When I try to access the recovery, I am sent to a black screen. When I plug in while in recovery and do "adb devices," I get my model number with the message "offline."

I AM OUT OF IDEAS! Someone. Please helpppp.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for helping.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drlzanej:
Try a re-root with regaws rooter (the old version if you can get it) i swear by it. or Z4 root. once you have reestablished root, get Rom manager and flash the 2.4.0.7 recovery. then in rom manager go to downloads and get the cyanogen mod download of your choice( myself i prefer 7.0.3) and flash. you should be good to go from there.

as far as your adb it looks like your pc either isnt recocnizing your phone or you dont have the proper drivers installed.

Bout all i can tell ya ,one noob to another,,,

BTW, if you want to start completly from scratch, since your s-off,you can get a HERCIMG.img i think in the development sectin of this forum that is flashable from fastboot,,,try that ,,,Later man and good luck
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drunkpilot:
Luckily you are S-Off. Can you put a HERCIMG.zip on the root of your sd card with a recovery (even CWM 2.5.0.7 will do) and then maybe try downloading another rom. Maybe you have a bad download. I am a big fan of Jaybob's TeamHeroc Rom which is a great CM7ish type of rom. Make sure that you format boot, cache, data, and system (I do it 3 times for each to make sure that it is really wiped) before you flash whatever rom you choose. You might have some leftover stuff that is causing some issues. Just wiping data and cache might not be enough. Here is a HERCIMG with a 4.0.1.4 recovery that you can load from H-Boot. I'm pretty sure that it's the Orange Recovery that I use.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drunkpilot:
I like Regaw's for rooting too. I used it the last time I did an RUU.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drlzanej:
Isnt that what I said just before you ??? Lol

BTW Pilot, Where have you been? One of the most active members of the Heroc forum and all of a sudden ,poof, gone like a fart in the wind ! And then as if by magic, Poof, your back.I knew youd return, they always always return to the ol reliable Heroc. Good to see you around again bud, Later man,,,:cool:
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hugabu:
hey guys just got back from vacation. Thanks for all your feedback. I switched phones to a temporary one now. I don't really feel like switching back to the hero cuz it costs money to activate phones. Also, I talked to an app developer about my problems. He told me that 1. the phone is way to old to be running gingerbread. Some nasty software probably carried over from my last flash onto the stock RUU flash. and that 2. whenever the problem occurs, I should let the battery drain before I do anything. Turns out, whenever the problem happens nowadays, I just let the battery drain and its all fixed. OKAY WTF. But all smiles now. Its my ipod-touch-like device now. I used regaws root.

THANKS GUYS SO MUCH.

Members...can you please suggest some good & completely working ROMs for G2 (with Sense 3.0 preferably) ...:D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coldsun15:
Havent tried them yet, since im still unrooted, but i've done some extensive research of the available roms with sense (reading through all the threads, and comments...) and have narrowed the list with a top 3 which im considering using:

in order of preference (from what i've researched of course...and this is personal):

1)MikRunny v1.01

2)RunnyDrOiD v3.0

3)BeatMod BlissSense Hybrid

Hope this helps, but again, havent tried them yet...

If you're looking for something with Sense I would recommend Virtuous or CoreDroid ROMs.

http://www.virtuousrom.com/

http://www.coredroidroms.com/site/

different releases of those you can find in the development section aswell.

so far I've tested Affinity and Unity latest releases from Virtuous and they seem fine.

If you would change your mind and rather want a smooth fast ROM instead a Sense one (that's pretty much the deal I guess, Sense ROM are propably always slower) I would tell you to go for Virtuous G-lite:

[ROM][12/12/2011] Virtuous G-Lite v2.0.1 :: GB AOSP HTC/G2 base 2.16.531.5

Running it atm, makes me really satisfied I rooted my phone :)

Ofc there are many other CM7 based ROMs around, you just have to try them out yourself to find what suits you best I guess.

Goodluck :)

Unity works good
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Most every ROM in the development section is "good and completely working" aside from a couple listed as alphas, and the ICS ROMs (which still have some bugs, but many still use as daily drivers).

There is no "best" ROM. It depends on your personal needs and preferences. Asking what is "best" is an insult to the developers that put a lot of time and effort to get these ROMs to us. Threads like this are tiresome, since they get asked all the time. Just browse or search the forum, and you will find plenty of suggestions.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boricua10:
If you like fast and simple look go with CM7
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyotatimothy:
It is a valid question

No need to be harsh; Not all ROM's are the same, there are some which perform better than others. We do appreciate the work being done by developers, but I think you were unfairly harsh to the person who asked that question. It is a valid question
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Why Sense?

Far as ICS Roms go, the one in my signature has been my favorite of the batches (basically a customized Rom using the CM9 Kernel with AOKP user base and his own G2/Vision specific tweaks).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crimsonpham:
my favorite sense roms were Virtuous Primadonna v1.21.0 Alpha 3 and InsertCoin Vision v1.7.1. out of sense 3.0-4.0 roms that i tried only the primadona had a working camera but audio recording didn't work in some apps. those roms are pretty slow... if you really want sense i'd recommend InsertCoin Vision v1.7.1. it was the only one that had working camera and audio that i tested. in any event you'll eventually get annoyed with how slow all the sense roms are if you like tweaking your phone often. that's why i switched to ics. the adroma mimicry is the fastest rom i've tried.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mruwek:
Andromadus Mimicry (1.1.2) gives you ICS in CM9 flavour with some additional tweaks (V6 supercharger, OC daemon etc.) and customizations (boot animation). Some of them you can choose at install time. It's fastest and most stable CM9 based ROM so far. I'm using it as a daily driver and I am fully satisfied.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mirko935:
I agree with people suggesting AOSP ICS ROMs. I also liked Sense until I tried CM9 beta for the first time and now I don't think that I'll ever use Sense again. You can try this one (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1687324) if you want something that resembles Sense 4, but is fully functional unlike current Sense 4 ROMs for DZ.

I'd suggest you try the one in my sig, though, that's what I'm using right now and it's really fast and stable, but I don't think you can go wrong with any CM9 based ROM, they differentiate only in details.
[Xoom General] :
hi, i am from argentina and I have a motorola xoom mz605 (wifi - 3G) and i want to update to ICS, so I looked for ICS ROMs for my device, but i couldn't find one (neither Teameos nor official). I found roms for WiFi and 3G/4G verizon (and i think there is one version of teameos called everest, for mz601, or something like that) but not for my device.

Is there an official software update for my device? Or an unofficial one?

Is teameos developing a rom for this device?

Is this device fully compatible with MZ601 ROMS?

May I help to develop one? (Testing roms..)

I know there are ways to run ICs on my device, but i want to run it with 3G working

THANKS A LOT
[Xoom General] mikedyk43:
I would suggest that you do some research on the differences, if any, between the 3G service in US vs. 3G in Argentina. If they are similar than you can give team Eos MZ601 ICS a go. If they are different, you can contact team Eos and either request a ROM that supports your service there or ask how to modify it yourself. The devs at team Eos are great and if they are unable to do it for you, I'm sure they could steer you in the right direction to modify one of their current ROMs.

Has anyone had this type of issue? Any recommendations?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] GoSooners345:
Does anyone know what firmware build number was released today for the samsung infuse?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DesElms:
I was at the AT&T Wireless Customer Support Center yesterday (Sat 21 Jan 2012) and got my Infuse flashed with the latest, greatest everything (using what the technician said was brand new -- installed by the Samsung rep literally this past week -- software), and it flashed the phone to:

Firmware 2.2.1

Baseband version I997UCKH1

Kernel version 2.6.32.9

Build number FROYO.UCKH1

And he claimed that that was as current as it could possibly get (as of yesterday, Sat 21 Jan 2012).

I'd sure be interested in knowing if something was released on 19 Jan 2012 that was even newer. One would at least think that whatever the AT&T customer support center is capable of flashing -- especially after the Samsung rep having been there that very week to install new flashing software and data -- would be as current as it gets; but who really knows.

Does anyone know what the thread-starter, here, is talking about?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] DesElms:
The 2011 AT&T/Samsung press release which notified that Such as the Captivate, and the Infuse (among others) would get the 2.3 Gingerbread upgrade listed the phones that would get it, in order.

The Infuse was right after the Captivate on the list; and the Captivate got the 2.3 Gingerbread upgrade about three weeks ago (as of this writing).

And since there's precious little difference between the Captivate and the Infuse, I have a sneaking suspicion that the 2.3 Gingerbread upgrade will be rolled-out to the Infuse sooner than later.

Further evidence of this is that there's suddenly activity on the Infuse's software download support page on the Samsung web site. Kies Mini, for example, is now available for the Infuse (though some are saying that it's not working right, yet); and Kies Mini, using a USB cable, is the means by which many Samsung phones on the AT&T system -- including the Captivate -- get their OS upgrades (though we, of course, all wish it were OTA).

Hope that helps.

Title pretty much says it all. I can't really find any solid info on this.

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homerbsharp:
I thought the modern ROMs specifically made use of this for OS related reasons but it appears to be for internal storage space issues only that I can find info.

Without the sd-ext extension you could use apps2sd but the data from your apps would still take up internal memory and at some point you would run out of internal memory.

With sd-ext and a program like link2sd (or s2e which I am not familiar with), you could store the app and also the app data on the sd-ext partition. Obviously for some games, this would make a big difference, but for me space is not an issue - however ...

My wife's older samsung had a ridiculously small internal storage space and apps2sd didn't cut it. After formatting an ext partition and using link2sd I was able to free up way more space and now her phone works again.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I2IEAILiiTY:
If phones are low on internal space, does the performance of the phone suffer? Just wondering. Everytime i get everything set up on my phone I have around 300mb of internal storage left, so it isn't a problem for me.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homerbsharp:
Definitely a problem if you are low on space; my wife's phone basically ground to a halt and would pop up errors re space and apps would just close spontaneously and take her back to the home screen. - of course her storage space issue was very severe.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Homerbsharp:
Yes, noticed with sense ROMs that my system partition was full and didn't sit well with me. I basically just wanted the weather on the lockscreen.

Once I used the script after flashing ROM I had way more space.

Basically there is a default script, but you can modify it as you like. They have done a really good job with this. I wouldn't flash a sense ROM anymore wo using this tool.
