[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panda_mode:
Flash a gingerbread i897 kernel with cwm injected in it. Then place the cm7 file on your SD card and flash the ROM from there. Don't forget to wipe data, cache, and dalvik (wipe dalvik found in advanced settings in cwm).

And instead of admitting that, you can just read the stickies and search other threads to learn more :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bravomail:
Read the stickies. And I believe ROMManager is not recommended.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stupidfingers:
Thanks...

Thanks for the help, I found a kernel that had CWM built in and now all is good. I sincerely appreciate the help.

With respect to "read the stickies"...

I did many search combinations based on my noob understanding of the issues, with i897, captivate, i9000, clockworkmod, etc. Nothing that I read, to my eye, looked like it described my problem. I spent HOURS looking for an appropriate message thread.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panda_mode:
Eh we all had to go through that. Three months after I started rooting my phone, I ended up hard-bricking it because I didn't explore enough on a particular tool.

(Wanted to upgrade to uckj3 using Heimdall-Frontend. Noob me decided to flash secondary bootloaders, which resulted in a hard brick and $40 to spend on JTAG lol)

Best of luck to you and enjoy!

Moving on to greener pastures
[Vibrant General] yosup:
See ya' on the flip side ...
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
Yeah, I think I may move as well but I'll keep in touch with xda. seriously, mods. This forum is for Developers, not for you to be a little ***** and think you're the king of everything.
[Vibrant General] ndwgs:
The f*k happened anyway?!?? I heard rumors and I'm not stateside so I don't log in as much so I really don't know what happened
[Vibrant General] Dougfresh:
Oo oo I know :eek:
[Vibrant General] lostwhat83:
This happens in every phone forum on this site. I have been on xda (as a user only) since the g1. I think it is good that the devs leave this site. Xda is only the first step for a new dev. Since the mods do not understand the term "development". Your everyday user should not be able to post in a dev thread. That is why we have a general forum. The Dev thread is for developers to talk to other developers to make a better product. It is not a place for users to complain and bad mouth developers, all that does out make them leave. Maybe one day xda will realize that.....cyanogen started on xda....he had his own site now....I wonder why.....lol
[Vibrant General] Globespy:
And without developers say goodbye to your advertising sponsorship. Slippery slope guys.

Remember, this is just a Web forum, nothing more and nothing less.

Maybe a revaluation of your perceived value of importance is known order.

It's just a real shame that the best devs keep leaving, and always for similar reasons. Biting the hand that feeds is never smart.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
No its good for everyday people to post what they get when they flash new roms. Now bad mouthing that's a different story..
[Vibrant General] Vibrant03:
Hmmm that's ridiculous..

But i like this site..
[Vibrant General] clofan:
Did people get butthurt over some ROMs not working or something? I'm confused, I would expect the devs to encourage bug testing and criticism...
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
I don't know exactly what happened, but it wasn't something that an average user did. Brick'd was a fun guy. One of the mods decided to close the thread for a reason that I do not know, and brick'd wanted to say goodbye.

oka1 should be the only mod for our forum, he actually gets us + hes pretty damn cool. even though i have like 70 infractions from him from a year ago haha
[Vibrant General] Woody:
Judging from Br1ckd's post in Zen I think something happened to another on the DD team. My guess is it was Dan but not sure. The mod in our tablet forum can go on power trips. Because Br1ckd is a Recognized Developer he has the power to lock/unlock his own thread.

Pretty sure it was an all for 1, 1 for all type thing. He's in a better place now. So lets not mourn his loss but rejoice in his new beginning. Hey, it's almost Easter and Padre Wood is done with his sermon.
[Vibrant General] Br1cK'd:
Woodrube is on point. I pulled my stuff, closed my threads, and stopped hosting on xda due to something that happened in the sgs2 forums between a trusted friend and DD member, and an overzealous, aggro moderator. As well, the same DD member has also been receiving harassing pm's that the mods didn't seem to want to help with.

I've spoken with Oka1 about my decision and the facts surrounding it, and thanked him heavily for his part in cleaning up the Vibrant forum in recent months. He really has had a big hand in bringing this particular subforum to where it is now.

I harbor no ill will towards anyone over here and I still check in from time to time. However, I also stand by those who stand by me. When my boy had enough of the BS, it was obviously time for a change, and as a new team, we showed great unity in unanimously voting to move.

Hope this sets the record a bit more straight. Feel free y'all, to pop by and say hi sometime, sit a spell, and visit some old friends, and some new ones.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
From this Moderator of the Vibrant

I Like all the guys in this forum, and this forum's Devs have been Stellar and worked together to keep things even and fair, properly giving credit to those who deserve. AS to the other forums I really do not know what happened, but I do know the SGS2 forums is a pretty tough bunch. So, it is understandable that some devs would get tired of the rowdiness..... That's unfortunate. I will strive to talk to the superiors about this incident so XDA can learn from it and make this forum a more conducive environment for all......

Thanks to all in this forum for being the good participants you are ........ ~~~ oka1
[Vibrant General] Insomaniac10:
They just need to have a better "recognized developer" system. that way ONLY developers can post in dev section, and they have an available option to enable/disable posting in their thread - leave discussion threads for the general section. as long as the moderators cleaned up the general section once a day, making sure there is only one discussion thread per rom - it would be a flawless system

I think the more annoying thing is how people can theme a ROM, add a couple apks, along with some build.prop/ram tweaks, and then post it in the dev section as a new ROM. that drives me mad, and then the noobs encourage this behavior (because they dont know any better) by saying "why complain about having more options??", and by calling these members "developers" - release it under themes/apps, not development

^^the end result of this is a cluttered development section with multiple versions of the same ROM - all of them having poor explanations - so you dont know which ROMS are legit enough to monitor because they all have the same damn features listed
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam1741:
Hey I just got a replacement phone today, but before I root it, is there a way to back up the stock rom with the stock bootloader and bootscreen with the I9100M. Like exactly the way it came from bell.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
Go to settings->about and see its build number

Then go to samMobile and download that firmware
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam1741:
that will for sure have the i9100M bootloader and proper i9100m boot screen?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahibunlimited:
Yes

You may also tell me the build number
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam1741:
gingerbread.ugkg2 is the build number
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
yup same rom is available at sammobile
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam1741:
Ya I found it, thank you very much guys. So flashing this will set everything back to the way it came from the factory right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam1741:
It didn't replace the bootscreen or bootlloader. Still says its a i9100 not a i9100m
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wezi:
You'll have to find and flash the original secure kernel once you've flashed the stock rom
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adam1741:
I did, still not I9100M at bootup... Any other suggestion please? I have 2 galaxy s2's one that I havent rooted yet, is there a way to pull the screen and the bootloader off it and put it on the other phone?

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueness88:
I am trying to stream my anime using DLNA BubbleUPNP. My computer is running PS3 Media Server because its been a reliable DLNA server for me for quite some time on many different platforms. It is hosting over a terabyte of anime.

I am having issues with divx/xvid playback strangely. All my videos that require hardware acceleration (1080p h264s) work fine but older encodes using divx/xvid in an AVI/MKV container do not work. I've tried MX Video, dice player, rock player, and bs player. Only BS Player would seem to actually render the videos at all but it strangely cuts to the middle of the video.

I watch tons of anime so pretty much my older anime episodes do not work but newer ones do. I am running the latest CM9 nightly (3/29). Well any insights would be helpful. I would think any recent player would play my old anime without a problem but it just freezes and crashes. Sometimes it would play audio before it does that.

Sorry if this is in the wrong forums and I haven't had much luck finding an answer while searching.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueness88:
Problem solved.

I am not entirely sure what I did but I did a few changes to the ps3 media server client and fixed everything. It may have been related to me changing the number of transcoding cores to 4 instead of 8. It somehow thought I had 8 cores. I also added avi to the streaming extensions of the Android.conf in rendered and that may have done something. (I actually dont know what that did but I just wanted to try)

So it seems I am able to use Dice Player, BS Player, and MX Video to watch my videos now. BS Player seems to be the most reliable but all the players seem very fickle. Dice player likes to try HW acceleration on everything then crashes. BS Player knows when to switch between SW and HW so it seems to be the most compatible. I really don't like BS Player because I can't seem scroll through the video which is pretty bad. I've also noticed my video stops for no reason after a while which is frustrating too.

I would like to know if anyone has a better setup with a particular combination that works for them best.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike-y:
I'm also using Bubble pnp, but with TVersity and also Samsung's All Share. Both seam to work, though All share adds metadata to all your media files for thumbnail generation. So if you have a large library, it takes a while to generate the extra files the first time you start the program. but having thumbnail previews is really nice.

I've also been using Dice player, but on a different tablet without any issues on most formats. I'll try it out on my TP and see if I can get it to work.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ve6ay:
One thing I've done, which is probably something you might wanna consider at some point if you plan on continuing to stream, is doing a permanent transcode of your video files. Handbrake is a free tool that allows you to transcode almost anything into almost anything else, and it has an Android setting. I really like how that works, personally. I have all of my video files (TV series, anime, movies, etc.) all transcoded into M4V files, and they all play gorgeously on everything - my PS3, my ATV2G, my tablet, my phone. Beats the crap out of the AVI files, and they're slightly smaller, too. H264 is the way to go, and this changes everything to work great for that. You can even soft-code and hard-code subs into the shows if you want.

As I said, my favourite part of all this is the files are universally accepted on everything. My TP, my Android phone (running CM7), my PS3, my ATV2G, my dad's iPhone, everything.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueness88:
Hah, I am firmly against re-encoding all my anime because I have a lot and it just bothers me when I change things from its original format.

I wish these DLNA browsers software like skifta and bubbleupnp were more customizeable in their UI. They all function perfectly fine but sometimes I want to try some different layout once in a while. I can see thumbnails fine for everything but I think it would be better if there were more modern 3d effects to sort of flip through all my anime playing small clips. Overall, I really have no complaints of my set up and have just minor stability issues with certain anime encodings.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dogmanky:
Using ES File Explorer and MX Player, I can stream XviD flawlessly with no transcoding of any kind. 720p MKV mostly the same. 1080p does naturally buffer quite a bit due to the high bit rate.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueness88:
My PS3 media server method has stopped working for whatever reason :(. It seems anything with mencoder avi files just crashes any chance for playback for some reason.

I've looked into SMB file sharing via ES File Explorer + MX Video player but for some reason everything refuses to even run. I can browse my windows shares fine but I can't play anything. It actually worked at one point but I am not sure what changed. Streaming my anime seems so fickle.

I've tried using TVersity + BubblePNP and everything also worked flawlessly at one point. Then TVersity refuses to even load itself and crashes right away. This is getting a little sad.

I've tried Windows Media Center and shared my videos but it magically refuses to show all my folders containing only mkv and ogm files. These are apparently unsupported formats so they won't even show up in my bubbleupnp browser. Somehow everything that did show up worked perfectly.

I've tried and gotten a lot of different ways to work...but somehow it magically just stops working. I am hoping someone has like some magic bullet solution to all of this. As of now I can only play stuff that are hardware accelerated. Maybe I shouldn't be so stubborn about re-encoding all my anime but I really like it the way it is now lol.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ByteWrencher:
Has anyone tried Serviio? I'm getting ready to upgrade my home file server and was searching for solutions when this popped up.

It seems to support transcoding and the like but would be interested in informed opinions if any are available.

ByteWrencher
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueness88:
So I reinstalled TVersity a few times and now it mysteriously works like a charm. I really like it now. Seems to reliably play all my stuff fine. The really cool part is I can host my files online and access it while away from home as long as my computer is on.

I also tried Serviio. It seems to really surprisingly well also. Its a little bit user unfriendly without a default GUI. I just used the Serviidroid app to configure the Serviio server so its fine now. I think its actually pretty good. I guess it lacks the polish of more mainstream programs but it seems to do the job just fine. I'll have to play around more to see if it chokes on anything.

For now I hope TVersity is my last stop because it seems to work pretty well when it works.

[Acer Iconia A500] blackthund3r:
Hi there,

I was wondering what each of the mmcblk0pX partitions contains, as well as what each partition in nvflash is (assuming they're not the same). The ones I know so far are:

mmcblk0p1: Recovery

mmcblk0p2: boot.img / kernel??

mmcblk0p3: System

mmcblk0p4: Cache

mmcblk0p5: MSC

mmcblk0p6: Flexrom

mmcblk0p7: The partition which the bootloader reads and writes the kernel (LNX) and Recovery (SOS) checksums. itsmagic applies a special pattern to an area of this partition which tells the bootloader to recalculate and save the images' checksums. Reverse-engineering this partition (and the associated AES formulae) would give us full control over our devices (until Acer changes the bootloader, that is! :P)

mmcblk0p8: Data

CWM Also tries to mount an mmcblk1p1 which doesn't exist....

nvflash partition 2: Boot Configuration Table

nvflash partition 3: Partition Table

nvflash partition 4: bootloader

nvflash partition 5: GP1 partition

nvflash partition 6: recovery

nvflash partition 7: kernel

nvflash partition 8: system (/system)

nvflash partition 9: cache (/cache)

nvflash partition 10: MSC

nvflash partition 11: flexrom (/system/vendor)

nvflash partition 12: See mmcblk0p7 (AES checksums for LNX & SOS)

nvflash partition 13: User data (/data)

nvflash partition 14: GPT Partition

Any help would be really useful for additions to my A500 APX Flash Tool (over at the forum I'm probably not allowed to mention for GPL reasons :L) as well as my everlasting curiosity.

Thanks!!

EDIT: I think they're all there now. Many thanks to the people that answered! If anybody has any corrections please do let me know :)

EDIT 2: Added info on mmcblk0p7
[Acer Iconia A500] maris__:
The following mounts can be found in update scripts of ICS custom ROMs:

mmcblk0p3: system

mmcblk0p6: flexrom

mmcblk0p8: data

[Acer Iconia A500] Tautvaldas:

[Acer Iconia A500] netham45:
On my system, and at least some of the other ones around here, mmcblk0p7 is data, and there is no mmcblk0p8. I don't think anyone has identified what causes that difference, though.
