Trying to root the GB leak.

Yes I can toggle the USB check in settings but debugging never shows up when I connect the cables.

I might have to Odin a root ROM..just don't feel much like reloading apps and all that jazz.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
superoneclick doesn't work well on later than uckj4 leaks...some have reported success with repeated attempts.

you can get recovery by using odin or heimdall and flashing entropy's kernel or defuse kernel to get recovery and then flash your rom.

you could also odin or heimdall to a froyo then go from there

OK, here is my question. Its about the Cityid apk. I know everyone hates it, i like to have it for 1 reason, my job. I am a tech for a Hotel chain, with hotels all over the country. I work oncall alot, and Cityid is handy for the reason that when the city and state pops up, i know what property is calling! I have tried to reinstall it in system/apps and setting permissions properly, but always says application not installed. Any help would be great guys. Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Well, since CityID requires fees beyond the 2-week trial period AND apparently has a habit of nasty nagging beyond that period if you don't click on the EXACT right thing at the end of that trial period, it's undersandable why nearly everyone wants it yanked.

Not all apps in /system show up in the app drawer because they are low-level services. I'm fairly certain that CityID requires BOTH the APK AND the stock dialer - this isn't immediately obvious since it's probably about the only thing that someone using a non-stock dialer would be missing.

Anything using the stock dialer SHOULD still have it if you install the APK (But you MIGHT have to do a wipe as it may only work if you have the stock dialer AND the APK initially). Also, I believe there might be some free alternatives, but they're hard to find because CityID loves lawsuits - http://androidforums.com/incredible-support-troubleshooting/104641-best-caller-id-app.html

Thanks for the input man. I do pay the 1.99 subscription fee. I was on unnamed 1.3.1 for a couple months and it worked fine. I am trying ICScrewD 2.0.1. I am not sure if either of those were stock diapers or not...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Patsfan123:
I don't understand how this is patentable. Reverse lookup is fairly straightforward and has existed for a while before cell phones were involved. It's not really a difficult task to have a lookup table with a list of known numbers. Just because they do it on a phone, they can patent it and sue anyone?

I backed up it with titanium backup on a stock rom and usually restore it when I change roms using the stock dialer. It always works again. It also seems to reset the trial period so I am not sure how the app determines if you are an actual subscriber or not.

Hey all I just have a quick question about the android version on my nexus.

I have only bought the phone today and under version it says 2.3.1

I have tried to update with the ota option as there must be a newer version out there but it says I am upto date?

Its a GSM UK handset.

[HTC Sensation] X10@Germany:
Hi,

today i got my brandnew sensation :)

so i started to flash it to ICS (Elegancia). I S-off'ed it, rooted it, but I forgot to read out the CID.

I updated the file PD58IMG.zip, wiped everything and flashed the Elegancia ROM.

but, I forgot to delete the PD58IMG file.. :\

I didnt make any backup -.-' (I know, really stupid ..) So i tried to flash the stock ROM (2.3.5) but this also didnt work, I got a loop at HTC logo.

After that, I tried to install ICS again .. so I wanted to flash the PD58IMG file, but then I got this error: "CID incorrect"

I used the "3.24 Rev" but I don't know, if it's the right file .. (I gutess its the right file) (no branding..)

Can anyone help? would be really nice :)

thanks very much..

Is there a way to disable the lock screen rotation? I have it disabled when unlocked but it still rotates when locked. When I set a wallpaper with picspeed it looks great until the lock screen rotates then the picture gets all fat and distorted even in landscape mode and I have to reset my wallpaper all because of the stupid lock screen rotation. Plz help!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
I would love to know if there is a way to do this as well.

One thing you could try instead of reseting your wallpaper, is once you are at your homescreen, turn autorotate back on, rotate to portrait and then back to landscape and see if that fixes the wallpaper. I have a different problem that happens when mine rotates when in lockscreen, but this usually fixes it for me.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Plainy:
It depends on many factors. Which Android Rom do you want flash, does this need Ext 3/4 Partition on the SD Card ? Do you have flashed the right partition size ? Read the installation instructions of Rom you wants to flash, there you mostly find all information.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
Are you talking about NAND or SD? If NAND, make sure the ext partition is set up correctly, as this is where a lot of the apps are stored. If SD, then I would assume you know how to install an SD build so it could be a problem with the SD card being incompatible as alex.odell.2011 said.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ElectroBeijing:
I've had similar problems sometimes with my SD card; my HD2 wouldn't boot unless I took the card out then put it back in once it was booted. The only thing that I thought might cause it is something CWR related on the SD card, since I had used it in my Hero and Droid 1 as well to flash ROMs to them. It was a class 4 16 GB Sandisk, if that helps at all.

Change log:

4/17/12 - I have made some observations as to how and why the Encryption Error strikes. See this thread starting at page 38 on (my post is #379 and after). Put in link to Play.Store for USB mode switch for SGS1 on CM and tag at top of guide re: its use.

4/2/12 - Emphasized the Encryption Bug to make it more visible and warning of hazards.

3/30/12 - Put in section at Top and Bottom about the Encryption Unsuccessful - Reset Android - ICS Issue and a link to the solution/workaround to the Captivate thread.

3/12/12 - Bolded AND in the kernel instructions re: wiping before AND after kernel flash. Put in something about waiting for CM7 to fully boot up and that it may seem like it is aborting or done, however it isn't and you need to wait for a complete boot. Don't jump the gun on this and pre-maturely pull out. ;) This is called CyanogenMod-us Interruptus.

3/8/12 - Explained why you need to flash CM7 before ICS. Put in link to fix External Mounting issue.

2/22/12 - Put in blurb about PMing me for AIO Toolbox and made the Toolbox Secondary to Odin

Included Closedciruit's thread with the ICS Passion and Euphoria Kernels.

Put in blurb about RANDOM OFFSET error and how to fix/bypass it.

2/18/12 - Took out Dropbox links because my account got suspended for TOO MUCH TRAFFIC. You are on your own for those right now until I find another solution. I am not going to register for another file sharing site.

2/15/12 - Put Dropbox links in OP with Froyo and Gingerbread Bootloader. Revised to make this all ICS ROM compatible since the OPs and per-requisites are essentially the same.

2/12/12 - Now AIO Toolbox, .Net and CM7 have direct download links since MultiUpload is down

1/15/12 - Revised to show that you can come from 2.1 OR 2.2

I'm glad you put the AIO toolbox there. It seems no one knows how valuable that little program is.
[Vibrant General] lazynoob:
thanks woodrube for the simple guide. the video from djeddieone seems to be fairly simple also.

i heard that if odin was used to go back to stock eclair to never use kies mini for a future update or else it would hard brick the phone. I've never odined back to stock however tempting to install cm7 i fell victim to a bootloop so i freaked out and odined back to froyo kb5. the question is now, if i used odin to go back to froyo would it be the same outcome as using odin to stock eclair when tempting to update with kies mini?

the reason why i ask is, i had given up flashing a custom rom, hoping for a stock update. but if thats not possible anymore i will go ahead and flash ics.

i tried my best searching. if i'm asking in the wrong place please redirect me. thanks and be patient with the noob.
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Couple of things. First DO NOT USE KIES. Kies will hardbrick you device. Not sure why anyone still uses this but don't. Second, you bootlooped in CM7 b/c of an CWR mismatch. This is normal for CM7. What you would want to do it pull the battery and reboot into recovery and reflash CM7, essentially over-top of itself. It should boot up the second time.

Don't give up on flashing custom ROMs. Once you do it, you will love all the cool things that you never knew you could do. Follow my instructions above and you can essentially flash whatever ROM you want from 2.1.
[Vibrant General] lazynoob:
yea figured it out watching some youtube clips. should have reflashed. so what you are trying to say is kies mini in general is dangerous? i have used it sveral times to update when on stock. mine and my wife's vibrant.

last question, if the impossible happens and vibrant gets a stable stock update, will i be able to just odin to stock eclair and update? if not with kies maybe using odin?

thanks for your help. hoping to help those like me in the future. can't wait to start flashing.
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Kies is bad. Really surprised you haven't bricked it yet. Stick with Odin to do your fresh flash. The Vibrant is not going to get an update, so don't count on that (see the petition in my signature if you want that to change). Fortunately we have an outstanding development community.

If you want a stable 2.2 try Toxic8 (I run this with Gingerbread theme as my "home" ROM when I am not testing), Deranged9, Bionix (no longer supported) and Bionix Fishman's version (this is supported), Bi-winning. All you have to do to flash these is follow the instructions above and when it comes time to flashCM7, skip it and flash the ROM of your choice. All of these have working GPS and 911, so no issues there. Any GB ROM (CM7 included) will not have functioning 911, just an fyi.

- I started from CM7 part.

- Reboot into Recovery

- Wipe Data/ Factory Reset, Wipe Cache and go to advanced and Wipe Dalvik-Cache.

- Locate ICS folder-Install CM7.

- After boot into CM7-reboot into Recovery again.

- Install ICS Passion RC1.

- After finish installation, wait bout 5mins.

- Reboot into Recovery again, flash cleanup patch then reboot.

- That's it.

[Vibrant General] yosup:
Woodrube ... thanks for the nice tutorial. Couple questions re. the GB Bootloaders.

When you say "Rainbows seemed to be fixed" ... does this mean:

a) GB Bootloaders are still REQUIRED - ie. it's the GB Bootloaders that "fix" the rainbows?

b) Or ... GB Bootloaders NOT required - ie. some type of fix has now been incorporated into the ICS ROM packages?

Sorry for asking for noobish clarification, but I wanted to avoid any possibility of turning my phone into a paper weight. :eek:

This is a great suggestion. Thanks for the tip.

adyscorpius' link for his modified JFD ODIN file is down (ie. Multiupload is down). Wondering if anyone has this particular file or a fresh link to download it? It'd be nice to not have to worry about whether a JFD package has the proper boot.bin / sbl.bin combo or not.

It brought me back to 2.2 Froyo
[Vibrant General] Woody:
I am not sure if you can just go from Passion to CM10.1 straightaway. I would think so though as the system has already been converted from RFS to MTD, so there should be no issues there. When I test out things on my Vibrant, I usually make a back up with Titanium and then flash back to stock (please note that Stock is NOT 2.2Froyo, but rather 2.1 Éclair [JFD package]). That way there are no ghosts in the machine causing unknown errors.

A clean install is always the best install.

That is for the SGS4g - T959V and not the Vibrant T959. The files are not inter-changeable and will probably brick your device if you flash one from the other.
[Vibrant General] bacon_fan:
After 2+ years of using my stock SGH-T959, I'm ready to attempt to update it so that I can use some of the apps that won't run on 2.2. I spent several hours today reading through multiple threads on multiple sites and have one primary question before I begin.

You say that stock for this phone is 2.1, yet my phone came with 2.2. Do I really need to downgrade it to 2.1 in order to root it so that I can run titanium backup before I start messing with roms?

According to settings, my phone is

Firmware: 2.2

Baseband version: T959UVJL5

Kernel version: 2.6.32.9

Build number: FROYO.UVJL6.ULTIMOBILE

I have never backed up anything on it besides copying some photos to my PC. I'd like to backup my text messages before I start experimenting with ICS.
[Vibrant General] apples723:
i would double check on updating to ics as there is an eu bug that is present in ics but not in jelly bean so update to jelly bean not ics and there is a bunch of great roms that support jelly bean i recommend either pac man or cyagenmod both can be found in the vibrant development thread
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Just curious, but are you on Cincinnati Bell Wireless? Ulitmobile usually is who they farm out their "development" too. As an aside, I had a Motorola XT720 that was updated with an Ultimobile ROM through CBW. A few of us dug into the code and found a line that was basically recording all the activities and transmitting back to the mothership. If you continue to use that ROM, I would suggest getting some firewall app and installing it. If you move to a JellyBean ROM, the look into Permission Management or Blacklisting.

Ok, so now to your question.

Stock ROM for this phone is JFD or 2.1 Eclair. If you want a squeaky clean install, I would suggest Odin'ing back to JFD (all the files are in my Repo thread in the Development section) and going from there. The Update.zip method for Clockwork will not work on a 2.2 ROM. You will need that to root, backup, flash,...

And as suggested, ICS does have the Encryption Unsuccessful (EU) error. This renders your Internal SD useless and after nearly 1.5 years, they is no cure. You can search both here and in the Captivate section for further information. Jelly Bean does not have this error however. Just make sure you are reading the OPs and you can go from there.

If you are local (Cincinnati), just let me know and I can help you if you want.

[Vibrant General] bacon_fan:
Yep, I use CBW and am in the area. It definitely sounds like Jelly Bean is the way to go.

Before I attempt anything, I want to make sure I backup the stuff that is important to me. I know I can copy the pictures directly to my laptop, but I also have my memo notes, text messages, and contacts to deal with. Is there an easy (or even moderately difficult) non-root method to accomplish this?
[Vibrant General] apples723:
The only way to do this is with some sort of back up app (titanium backup ect.) but that requries root and if I'm not mistaking the devs don't suggest you use that because it interferes with a system app. Especially if your coming from a lower os. and many roms dont come with those system apps that youll find on stock because its trying to slim it down to the fastest possible rom and that by removing non esential apps:)
