oh, and if you get reboots.

Reboot to recovery, and 'wipe data/factory reset', reboot again to android.

(yes, I know that 'reboot to recovery' and 'reboot to bootloader' do not reboot to recovery or download mode, yet. Working on it!)

I haven't had a problem since.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lainvalenajr:
Thank you so much for bringing cm7! An very impress with all of you guys dedication. All i can say is all the devs here are true developers. Thank you and good luck.

I'm still having problems if my phone is not connected to usb or running alogrec, the phone locks up.

I am experimenting with a few mmc changes.

Also, I noticed that BLN doesn't seem to work. I'll let m4xm4n sort that one out ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Ok, I've gone through about twelve theories tonight, and I'm left with either gp2a (proximity sensor) or wm8994 audio driver are having problems with suspend/resume.

I can't keep my eyes open log enough to continue. See you guys next week.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] P06o:
Just want to post words of encouragement for the devs working on this. I don't dare get involved with this as I would be more a hinderance than a help, but it is fascinating to read about your progress. Thanks Bryan and Max for not leaving the rest of us completely in the dark. Maybe the progress reports will keep the "how's this coming" posts to a minimum.

Attention Testing Type People

Please call someone with CM7. Also, have someone call you.

If you can hear them, and they can hear you in both instances, report back.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Some people have been having trouble following the instructions for doing an efs backup in the OP. Here are the revised instructions:

For creating the backup

mkdir /efs /sdcard
umount /efs
mount -t vfat /dev/block/stl3 /efs
mount -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /sdcard
cd /efs
tar cf /sdcard/efs-backup.tar *
md5sum /sdcard/efs-backup.tar > /sdcard/efs-backup.tar.md5

Once you've flashed the CM7 kernel, you can restore the backup like this:

mkdir /efs /sdcard
erase_image efs
mount /efs
mount /sdcard
cd /efs
md5sum -c /sdcard/efs-backup.tar.md5 && tar xf /sdcard/efs-backup.tar
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] justinaz:
For Anyone getting "invalid tar magic" it might because its in a different format:

tar.gz = tar zxvf

tar.bz2 = tar jxvf

tar = tar xvf

I was successfull when i did this when trying to extract the tar.gz i created:

tar zxvf /sdcard/efs-backup.tar.gz

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] elmejor183:
Just to mention, one bug is that the ringer is not functioning on incoming calls.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
ya i told m4x that earlier today when i asked him if you guys were using wake locks for wi fi ya he tested it soon as he activated wake lock for wi fi it brought the system down. We could change it to user space which shouldn't have adverse effects as you see now.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
the calling function other then the ringer is great.

And i guess proximity sensor is able to detect my head and turn on and off screen during call.

anyway, i reverted back.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:

p.s. dont post the same question here and in pm.

i read my threads.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jabberbox:
sorry for question in two places.

No, I was unable to get a backup. Each step in the efs backup area is giving me a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:

Bryan, what part of gps should not be working?

Im asking because i am getting a 20 meter lock in about 10 seconds..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Eric-1987:
Can you use nitrality to backup and restore the EFS?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
please ask questions in q&a.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] astaccz:
There's a tool I know of here on XDA called EFS Tool that makes a backup of /efs. Its a script with a GUI for windows. There is also an apk version that does the same thing. Both strictly for Galaxy S phones. But I say just follow the efs backup steps in the OP. It worked perfectly for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] farwek:
Good news... I wonder if this has been replicated? If not I wonder if there is any way to tell what's different.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Is this actually a 20 meter lock, or Google Maps saying that it knows where you are within 20 meters using your cell triangulation? Because when I use GPS Test or similar apps like that, they see 0 GPS satellites in the sky.

Also, since it isn't in the known issues section... the reboot choices for Recovery or Download modes just reboot back to live.

Both noted as being in second through forth (fourth?) releases.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Just wanted to say that BLN does appear to work using R4, since there's a bunch of people saying they're having problems with it on the 0.2 Kernel thread. Just using the free version for now, but it does light up for the 5 minutes (what I have set) when I get new emails or miss calls.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
I know that this was asked a few pages back, but is it now safe to assume that this can work as a daily driver as long as you do not need BT or GPS?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
I've been using it as such. Basic issues are that the phone doesn't have an audible ring, no BT/GPS, and the battery drains fast... 38% down in 6 hours, 40 mins, with 13 mins of display time. The battery issue is probably tied into the wakelock kernel issue bhundven mentioned in post 383 of the kernel thread.

If you're fine with those issues though... yeah. I've been using it as my phone's ROM since Sunday without any unexpected reboots or other issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
I mean I don't use bluetooth or GPS (except for foursquare but i dont need it) and i can deal with the battery drain so i guess I'll I'll flashing. Music works, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Theraze:
Yep. Used Google Music as my distraction for most of Tuesday. Notification sounds play, regular music plays, it's just the ringtone that doesn't sound.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nazcalito:
hmm. There should be a quick and dirty fix for the ring issue, like something that bypasses the normal ringtone function and plays a sound file on an incoming call. I found this code on-line as a start.

private void call() {

try {

Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);

callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:123456789"));

startActivity(callIntent);

} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {

Log.e("helloandroid dialing example", "Call failed", e);

}

}
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hampsterblade:
The ringtones not playing is do to libaudio not waking up the right speaker. Its on the list of things to fist, but Bryan has GPS and BT higher on the list. For BLN issues talk to FB in the kernel thread as Bryan doesn't want to touch that til everything is working.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
No, for BLN issues go here:

BLN works fine, it's just that people don't know how to use it. No use cluttering the kernel thread with questions on how to use it.

Hello y'all. :)

I purchased and evo 4g from ebay.

I am only using this over wifi, different thread LOL, however no matter what I do some of the previous owners calls and texts come through.

flashed back to stock, different roms

Did all the prudent clear delvik, wipe factory etc. . and still getting texts etc

now he had it ported to a different company ( like metro pcs but I haven't heard of the one before and cannot recal the name)

Any Ideas?
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
Sounds like the ESN wasn't properly cleared from the device. Call Sprint, and tell them what's going on, that you are getting calls/texts that aren't yours. They can clear the ESN out of the account.
[EVO 4G General] stevovanburen:
If the phone is on ebay there is probably a reason lol

But like sitlet said if you call sprint they should be able to take care of you, as long as the phones esn is clear *which it was right?*.

Just make sure if you take it in to sprint to take the proper cautions since your rooted.
[EVO 4G General] NxNW:
If you can get the MSL, either from Sprint, or (if it's rooted) from an app called "MSL Reader", you can definitely find a way to nuke that phone so it will completely forget its old identity. Google for some terms like MSL, EPST and 7780 .

I do that to my own phones *before* selling them on eBay for the very reason you discovered..
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Yeah that reason is.the phone is almost 2 years old and someone probably upgraded, you're not talking about aa brand new or newer phone at a rockbottom price now that's a red flag

[EVO 4G General] plainjane:
First of all, it's flashed to a different carrier and only being used as a wifi device, so taking it to Sprint is pointless. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

You could try contacting the seller and let them know, they'll have to have service moved to a different phone or discontinue service. In the meantime, just use airplane mode if you're only using wifi anyway. Turn on airplane mode, then turn on wifi, and it'll still work as a wifi only device. It'll save battery life too.

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has Chad's "testing" version of Clockwork mod, and it was version 2.5.1.8. The first recovery to be able to get more than 2 touchpoints at a time?

could anyone help? searched high and low but all links are either dead or to websites that don't exist anymore,

many thanks,

Brian
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
Try pming Chad. Also slcd or amoled screen?

Also some touch controllers seem to only work with 2 even though they are detected by the multi touch kernel as supporting more.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -xipher-:
I will try to pm him and see if he will respond,

I'm unaware of how to determine my screen type, i've read many threads about it but it's hard to make clear what screen I have? if you have any information on this it would help greatly. Even if it's a slcd, some people have reported 3 working but even 3 I would be happy for the apps I use requires more than 2 sometimes like music apps, emulator and such but thank you for replying

many thanks, Brian

If you pull your battery, hardware version ADR6300 VW & ADR6300 VW2 are AMOLED, ADR6300 VW3 is SLCD.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -xipher-:
Following your advice, it's a SLCD (I think as it was both VW beside the FCC and VW3 above it) and reading about this screen means at most 3 touch points. Even at that it's pushing it =[ but thanks all for your help though i'm sure someone else could use the information
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
I probably have the same model as you. As far as the selecting number of touch points in the kernel, mine should support more than 2 but it doesn't. I've never heard of anyone with an SLCD model get more than 2 points.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -xipher-:
hmmm that's true though, people have been trying to get more than two on SLCD but wonder if it's got to due to the board, digitizer or screen? so lets say mine is a SLCD, if I purchase a AMOLED screen would multitouch work? as I replaced the digitizer recently due to a nasty drop?

I'm sorry to tell you, but the fact that it stays always on means that the LED is actually fine (a broken LED usually means a burned-out LED, so no light). So it's not the LED, but something else, and changing the LED won't solve the problem.

Short circuit. Open the battery lid, remove the battery and put the phone in rice. Yes, in rice! Rice absorbs the humidity. Another thing you could try is a hair dryer but don't put it on "High" and keep moving it, don't hold it in one spot for a long time.

Or you could leave the phone opened in the sun on a sunny day.

After reboot you`ll have same rom but rooted and with cwm recovery. Now you can flash what rom you want
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
SINGLE most important thing you need to do is get off your lazy butt and do some reading, if you aren't willing to spend several several hours of reading BEFORE flashing anything or trying any modification to your phone, then you deserve the flamings that are coming your way, or better yet, you need to go buy you a little feature phone that you can't do anything to.
