[Hero, G2 Touch General] PaulWilks:
I'm having the 'flash_image not found' problem too.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
I tried this on my HERO GSM which has S-ON but after doing this process it still has S-ON it doesnt turn to S-OFF?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kemoba:
I sucessfully S-OFFed with this, thanks mondaco
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jdwis:
I tried it again, but still S-ON?

I put hboot image on sd card, removed battery, put it back, went into recovery RA1.7xx, flashed hboot zip file.

It did few things and asked me to confirm it with "HOME + BACK" button, which I did, then again it did few things and then booted into recovery, showed as if its finished and showed me a last command Formatting Cache.... though it was stuck there for atleast 2 min so switched off the phone, went back in bootloader, it still showed S-ON?

I downloaded file from modaco as well, both files are same, modaco's and the one mentioned above... I checked MD5.

What am I doing wrong?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Milyenair:
Easy question. Do I need to keep the original zip files on my phone in order for my backup/restore (s) to work correctly, or can I always restore my ROM's without the orginal files? Just looking to save space, I have 3 great ROM's now, Codename Droid, Gummy Nex & FoxHound. I change em up often.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] staticx57:
If you are talking about the original install files you can delete them if you already have an nandroid of the ROM.

the .zip is just the installer. Once you have a backup made you will be able to restore that just fine.

Hi .. everybody... first post here at xda :-) Im having trouble getting my Bluetooth

To turn on on my Sgt p1000 ... I'm running ics cm9-sgt7 te4m-rco.20120127 rom

and p1000 cm9 humberos kernel. 20120122 .... when I turn on Bluetooth it just sez Bluetooth turning on.... for several minutes I wait and it never comes on ... I've been following the cm9 thread since the start and I see people are saying they have it working.. I looked back to see if I missed something about Bluetooth not working on the latest build and could not find anything... am I missing something? Has anyone else come across this? Please help thx
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffroy:
You may have already done this, but go to humberOS site and download the latest rom (30th) and kernel. Flash these via cwm then search thee ics thread for humberOS Bluetooth fix and flash via cwm. He posted it an hour or so ago so shouldn't be too hard to find.

Hope that helps?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
According to T-Mobile support (I just got off the line with them) and this article from phandroid.com, effective January 25, 2012, T-Mobile is throwing in the "tethering plan" (which is now called SmartPhone Mobile Hotspot) and the MobileLife Album Plus plan for people who upgrade their data plans... It will save you $20/month! Go get it!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
How's this any better than the free tethering/hot spot options we get in the custom ROMs?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Good question... I don't know is my answer.

Hmmm... That's a good question. Do you mean that I have been paying $14 for tethering unnecessarily??

As for the remaining $6, I suppose that is for the MobileLife Album Plus service (which I also wasn't aware of and don't need or use)...

For me, I had been paying both the tethering fee and the 5GB fee... when I called to complain (because of the new deal being offered), they dropped my tethering fee (re-imbursing me) AND provided (the service which I don't use/care about) MobileLife Album Plus.

In short, my bill was reduced by $14.

How can this be good for you?

Well, I don't know. Like sooooo... many other things, I simply cannot answer that one.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
Look into it more. T-Mobile mentioned it to me and

I got the impression

from what the guy explained to me that having the tethering plan counted data differently. Meaning when tethering you are not using up the 5 gig 'limit' before slowdown that you have on your phone. Which would obviously be beneficial because when tethering to your computer you hit that data cap pretty fin quickly.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
Hotspot is built into the stock rom, so I never thought twice about it... never get billed for it, but have certainly used it.

As for the 5GB plan they push you into, if you don't use it you can get them to drop you to the two gig.

I am almost always around wireless, so any DLing I do is through wireless, I haven't hit 2gig even in the past 11 months on this phone.

I'm on a very old MyFaves 'special' plan that I don't plan to 'upgrade' from unless they force it, the only thing they have ever changed is forced me to add the 4G data plan at $30 last year, which I got them to drop to the 2gb plan at $15 I think it is now..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
I am on unlimited everything... though they cap you a 5 gigs then slow you way down. I have hit it and it is a b*tch! Which was my point with what the op said... from what I understand your tethering won't count towards your mobile data...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] theGeeko61@gmail.com:
Saving money is different from debating techniques... LOL

Yes, I was on unlimited everything... but started my plan 9 months back under a 2GB. Now, when I had signed up (having been used to another plan which I have from a different provider), I had thought "unlimited" meant just that. But during my 2nd month, I went over... and received text messages informing me that I would be throttled... and life was so unfair. :rolleyes:

But, I called them up and added on the 5GB limit. (I had initiated my plan with tethering...) The point of this post was simply to alert those who (like myself) are paying at an older rate... that they may be able to reduce their bill by roughly $20.

I complain when my vendors (carriers, manufacturers, providers, etc.) cause me pain... I try to be equally willing to give kudos when warranted. In this case TMO warranted my kudos for working with me... and I was simply alerting others who may find themselves in the same situation... that they might get a free lunch out of the deal. :D
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArC AnGeL:

Thanks for the reply bro ... but the only thing I get out of the phone rightnow is the bootloader when its attached to RSD lite
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mearoth:
perhaps easiest is to just start from beginning flash a clean sbf - root it again and install cm7 again.

after flash of sbf you should be able to get into the recovery menu again (press power plus vol - when switching on the phone), so you can clear cache. then booting should not be a problem.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArC AnGeL:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kidrobot52:
That happened to me as well I think I read in one of the forums the reason for that is because you flashed the wrong sbf. Did the same thing as you I just flashed the nordic one instead and it worked out beautifully.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArC AnGeL:
If ur battery is fully dead which is the reason u can not get into the bootmode (Volume up + power) then you have to create a trick wire called the macgyver which u can find the instructions to do that in the Motorola Defy Xda Wiki ... once u get that working to power up ur phone thru ur computer then u can get RSD lite working

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RuneMason1:
Does anyone have the apk for GPad Pro? I use it on my Samsung Intercept and would also like it on my NT (if it decides to work that is.).
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
You could try just copying it out of /data/app on your phone (e.g. to Dropbox or something similar). I don't know anything about that app, but I've used that process several times.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Know-Fear:
Agree with ^

Otherwise you would technically be asking for warez. Use TB to back up the app and transfer is to the nook.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RuneMason1:
Not sure if it has to be rooted to look there but looking in that folder using androzip shows an empty directory. -Edit: Just found out that AndroZip will backup the app. didn't know that before. Thank you.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ckevinwelch:
So, is your phone not rooted? I don't know if that is a requirement to look in that folder (I haven't used an unrooted phone in almost two years). If you're not rooted, the TiBu isn't an option either. Have you rooted and installed the market on your NT? Looking the app up at market.android.com shows it is compatible with all my devices (including my NT with an unmodified build.prop).

Edit: you could also try using Astro file explorer to backup and then copy the APK from your phone's SD card. That would be another non-root option.

-Factory reset

-Clearing cache

-clearing data on contacts and phone

-i don't have any frozen apps since i just reset

-no Facebook or Google plus installed.

I have searched for about 3 hours on how to fix and haven't found anything that works. =(

[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Jade Eyed Wolf:
Judging from this output, it looks like Odin get's as far as unpacking the firmware file on your computer and as soon as it gets ready to push everything to your device, it fails.

Just because you connect your device, and Odin sees it, doesn't necessarily mean that your device is ready to receive a firmware push.

Are sure you're in download mode when performing this? Or are you in recovery mode?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] kevinsfar:
No i am not at all sure, since I so far only have experience from flashing P1000 & P7510 with odin, but my P6800 shows :

Odin mode is correct.

"Custom Binary Download: No" simply means that you haven't installed or flashed something other than Samsung Official.

Wonder if it is same problem and solution as http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1347902.html

were "The Chinese version has different bootloaders which will reject any firmware except Chinese" it dosn't say if anyone sucessfully managed to confirm that solution on P6800 purchased in China.

Anyone having experience with "So,first you should delete the md5 suffix after code.tar

then,use 7-zip to delete boot.bin param.lfs sbl.bin in the code.tar,and you can't flash modem with odin,you can only flash chinese modem with cwm.

This is a hypothetical question...

But here is the scenario:

He wishes to have the ability to load different custom kernels without affecting his ROM. (As long as we provide archives which strictly contain the Kernel, we should be able to meet this requirement.)

So, we plan to work together to create a Kernel for our specific needs...

What do users usually request/expect concerning features from the Kernel?
