[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] broodplank1337:
That's kind of you, but honestly, he can do it himself pretty easy.

@lamero1:

Just download an existing custom rom (in cwm zip format) such as my business edition and download the stock rom you want, then open the stock rom (.tar.md5 file) extract system.img.ext4 and boot.img (you can extract system.img.ext4 with Diskinternals Linux reader). now delete all contents inside the /system folder of the business edition zip and place the contents of system.img.ext4 inside the zip. also put the boot.img from the stock kernel inside the zip. Now when you install the zip you will have a clean system, without root)

if your phone recognizes my quick flasher you can also flash the system.img.ext4 partition directly to your phone (takes ages tho)

But honestly I think your usb slot isn't broken but it's just some issue with your computer, have you tried it on a computer of a friend or so?

Also it could be that the file "usb_sel.bin" which is located in /persist, has the incorrect value of 1 or 2 when opening as text file, it needs to be 0. if it's not your usb won't work and only charges.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrjraider:
You mean, download BroodROM BE, put delete the custom files and replace them with the stockrom files and flash via CWM?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamero1:
In another PC same problem. No phone recognized. No sound (In windows 7) when phone attached

cat /persist/usb_sel.bin prints 0
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamero1:
Quick flasher can't recognize my phone. USB it's broken

I will try thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamero1:
Worked! Thanks :)

Very useful for other people with USB problems, having phone in warranty

The only problem is that in info i have Kernel version: root@DELL156 #1. How can I fix it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.wtf:
at least in germany there is a difference between guarantee and warranty. if you flash a custom rom or root your phone you lose guarantee which is voluntarily given by samsung. means samsung doesn't have to give support on problems which are caused by flashing of the rom. though if you have problems you didn't cause with a product - here with your hardware - samsung has to repair it because this is a warranty issue. this is something the german law says.

This is the stock kernel i think. I also first thought this "root" says the phone is rooted but it isn't. This is like in stock rom ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamero1:
Yes, but I must remove it
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarPlus:
No, Samsung will accept your phone, this has always been the name of the stock kernel even before rooting..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamero1:
Thanks @OmarPlus. Are you sure? Effectly into build.prop of stock ROM (I9001XXKPI_I9001XXKPF_I9001ITVKP1) there is

ro.build.user=root

ro.build.host=DELL156
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarPlus:
Download terminal emulator from market, then type su

If the superuser Window appears you're still rooted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lamero1:
I know this, but the problem isn't root or not root, but if it is normal to have root@ under Firmware Version :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmarPlus:
Well I guess so since you have no superuser
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegaRED7:
Yes it's normal.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Trancicted:
Hey guys,

I just read an article on a dutch electronics website (tweakers) that Google would make a 'nexus rom' for the xperia S. They would build it from the ground up and Sony will help google with providing closed source files (drivers, etc) so they can use that as well.

Google wants to do this to develop a stock AOSP version of android!

What are the potential benefits for Xperia play? Is there a possibility that the touchpad framework would go open source?

Also, please correct me if some of this info is wrong, as you guys probably know, the interwebz isn't always right...

[Xperia Play Android Development] TheCraig:
Is this true? if so I'm getting an Xperia S!
[Xperia Play Android Development] Justinchi:
I could see this helping the PLAY to an extent, but not as far as the Gamepad and Touchpads are concerned. Unless devs continue to port the touchpad libs from GB.
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
After having read the memo, it's going to be a pre-alpha thing for possibly longer than the lifespan of the phone itself. If you read it, he says that it won't be a daily driver for a very long time, especially with the way they'll be implementing the changes (i.e. slowly). The only thing that it seems like this would help is laying the foundation for future phones, to make AOSP development more fluid.
[Galaxy S III General] nfsmw_gr:
If you have time you should make it more detailed...i get what you say but some may want more info about what they're doing with their phone..

Any by the way!

It's called KERNEL!

[Galaxy S III General] veyka:
Moved to general, make sure you read the section rules for more information on where to place threads!
[Galaxy S III General] ManCityFC:
Ha Ha, I'll correct it. I always get them mixed up.

If one of the mods make it a sticky then I'll spend a lot of time making it more detailed, but if it's just going to get lost in the ether, then there's probably little point. I would personally have killed for a guide like this 4 years ago when I started rooting and flashing, but I agree, it could be even more comprehensive and I certainly don't mind putting in the leg-work if it's helping people?
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:
Comment .

One Rom Manager is known to give problems with some root if you read Chainfires thread .

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695238

Nandroid does not backup everything No Modem No EFS

With most ROM's, you will need to flash the GAPPS.ZIP >>> Not true for stock based roms .

jje
[Galaxy S III General] ManCityFC:
Thanks, I'll let some of these corrections mount up then do a big edit.

You are of course correct, stock ROMs and ones like MIUI don't need Gapps.

Didn't realise ROM Manager was an issue after the recent stability fixes recently, but I'll amend that.
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:
Could be out of date with my comments . Its just long time SGS and Rom Manager problem posts .

jje
[Galaxy S III General] ManCityFC:
Can anyone else think of things that I could add to this guide?

I'm thinking of updating it with:

Terms that people ask about, (like the dreaded SOD)

Creating a section that explains about helping devs with positive feedback and how to generate a logcat.

General troubleshooting like clearing an app cache.

Need some inspiration though, what questions do we get asked over and over?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] faqe:
This is a theme I've been developing for my own use. I use the vrtheme system, so it should be compatible with all JB roms, sans a few xml related edits. but I'll try to provide edited framework for the most used roms. here are the screenies. ETA is in a week time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sgtkid12:
Looks great! Cant wait to try it. Will it be a theme chooser theme or a flashable zip?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] faqe:
It's flashable for now. Since I am not a serious developer, and just sharing my personal theme, I may soon ask other developers help to convert it into a theme chooser version (since the resources are all xhdpi and a lot of converting need to be done) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sgtkid12:

i know this is a really late bump, but I noticed in one of your screen shots there is a calendar event for "Ultimate Night"

Is that Ultimate Frisbee? because I play too, and its only right to give a shout out to anyone else i meet that plays.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Is this ever going to be released lol?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] faqe:
Sorry

I'm really sorry, I sent my gnex for a fix and somehow I lost all the most recent files for the theme. But I've been working on a new one, a different project. but this time, I won't do any preview. I'll release it when it's ready. And it's for 4.2 ++ (since I have to include a few xml files in the zip-flasher so they might break 4.1)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] faqe:
yes I play Ultimate Frisbee :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Alright. Too bad too because I'm staying on 4.1.2 until the next OS (not impressed with 4.2) and that's a really clean theme. One of the nicest I've seen to date. I was really looking forward to it. :(

Maybe sometime in the future you'll pick it back up?:thumbup::p

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XaviPR:
Hello,

I'm going nuts trying to figure out how to fix my Atrix 4G (AT&T).

I Rooted > Unlocked my Atrix and installed the Touch version of CWM and flashed CM9 and it all seemed perfect.

However it seems all the WiFi drivers are gone.

Trying to turn on WiFi simply makes my Atrix reboot. Trying to use some WiFi tethering tools give back a 'no Wpa supplicant' error.

The phone works perfectly except for the fact it has zero WiFi capability now.

I flashed other ROMs like MIUI, and AOKP to no avail, same issue, no wifi.

I flashed the Stock ATT ROM via a fruitcake thinking it will 'reinstall' my wifi drivers but i was mistaken.

Anyone have any ideas how to get WiFi drivers installed again? Why wouldnt the ROMs have that already?

Bit confused and would appreciate any help.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dulexetina:

I've just rooted my GSII LTE and want to flash a recovery image now but I only have access to a Mac at the moment. Is it a bad idea to use Rom Manager; I hear a lot of people warning to stay away from it these days. Is there another way I can flash a custom recovery from a Mac?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kishke:
Odin for mac I guess.

Either that or windows virtual machine/bootcamp.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
If you rooted then use goo manager to flash twrp. After that you could flash any recovery in our Dev section, as long as its in .zip format
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
how did you root? didnt you first install cwm to flash the su files, if so you have a custom recovery already installed, now you can just use zip files to install a diff recovery or do what cdshepherd stated

I have not personally used Incredicontrol, so I can not confirm whether it works or not, but for prime's kernel I would recommend using Milestone OC (Milestone OC Tutorial). For stability I would go with Deprimed.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] appman1234:
To make S2E working for CM9 RC1, I did the following:

1a) copy "05mountsd" and "20userinit" to \system\etc\init.d\ (by Root Explorer)

1b) change their permissions as that of file "90userinit" in \system\etc\init.d\

2) delete "90userinit" (as replaced by 20userinit)

3a) copy "S2E.apk" to \system\app\ or install it from Google Play

3b) change its permissions to rw-r--r--

4) reboot

Enable and set S2E as usual but I never enable "Mount as ext4" in the Settings as it always corrupt the sd-ext partition.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nissansupragtr:
So I decided to go back to stock hoping to get OTAs. I was on stock rooted and used ODIN to flash stock unrooted as per the directions in the sticky thread in Android Development. I restarted the phone and superuser is still there. Did I fail to unroot? Also, will this affect my ability to get OTA if it is unrooted?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wir3start3r:
You could uninstall the .apk itself / or delete with root explorer
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nissansupragtr:
So I restarted it and it vanished. I guess mission accomplished lol Thanks though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] newuser134:
You did something wrong, or somehow restored it, or maybe you flashed Root66 or an already rooted image by accident, because if you restored to completely stock, unrooted image through Odin, it basically overwrites the entire /system partition (operating system), there should be no apps or anything left that was custom installed. Before you did this though, you should have gone into recovery and wiped cache and data (make sure you backup all your data because wiping data will delete all your data on the phone and all your market apps too, except for your external/internal sdcard data). Anyway, flashing through Odin completely wipes your /system partition, so it would be impossible to have anything lingering from before. What this means is that you either installed the wrong image through Odin and it's still rooted, or you didn't wipe data before flashing and Superuser must have been installed as a user app then. Do a factory wipe (after backing up data you want to keep), then reflash stock rom again.

Edit: Now I can see that its visible on every background, on white,blue,red etc.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
it's a problem with the screen.

It's called 'screen burning or image ghosting'

When a static image is displayed on a screen for too long, the image will become a ghost and will show on the screen, no matter what you are viewing.

It's more common in oled screens than LCD.

Since you said you just bought it, I'll advise you to return it.

[Motorola Droid 4] The Magician Type 0:
So one of the things I definitely do not like on the Droid 4 was the inclusion of a Caps Lock key. Seriously? WHO NEEDS TO SOUND THIS ANGRY ALL THE TIME? NO ONE. So one of the things I always immediately do when flashing a rom is go into the key layout and change this to a much more appropriate shift key. However, the latest cm9 build (8-15) seems to be giving me some issues.

The caps key is #222

Usually I go into /system/usr/keylayout/ and edit the qwerty.kl file. Sometimes I have to change the key 222 entry, sometimes I have to make my own. This does not seem to work this time though. Does cm9 use a different file for key layouts? I even edited the Generic.kl, which I'm pretty sure doesn't apply to the phone's physical keyboard.

Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

-----Resolved-----

So like 5 minutes after I posted this I realized it was the omap4-keypad.kl file that needed editing. Derp. Sorry!
