I can't install on my Samsung Focus S :'(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Do you have interop unlock? Someone with Omnia W also had a problem. I changed the way to get Root Access for Samsungs. Apparently there is a bug. I will look into it. For now, the work-around is to install Root Tools 0.11 and then "UPDATE" to 0.12 according to instructions.

Good luck,

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ricardox6:
I used the previous versions, including the Root Tools 0.11 but the upgrade to 0.12 asks me to be full unlocked.

I think for now it is not possible for this device.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
This is indeed the same issue. But your device should support it! Because previous version also works. And this version has the same requirements. Except there is a bug in the installer for Samsung 2nd generation devices. I will try to fix that.

For now: Install version 0.11, then use XapDeployX 0.9 to -UPDATE- to 0.12.

Good luck,

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ricardox6:
I repeated the process and now is working well.

Thank you very much :good:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Ok. Cool. Can you please tell me a bit more details about what you did to get it working? Did you just reinstall 0.12 or did you first go back to 0.11 and then update to 0.12?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ricardox6:
I went back to install 0.11 and after updated to 0.12.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Ok. Good.

So, how is the portuguese translation? :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ricardox6:
The translation is very good. great job. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] boneszbo:
I upgrade with xap deployer app from 0.11 to 0.12 and i have information app incompatible with my device.

I've HTC Mozart full unlock with custom rom...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
I assume you have a custom ROM with Ultrashot's Full Unlock. The unlock should be arranged by Full Unlock. Run Root Manager to give Root Access to WP7 Root Tools. If it already hasvRoot Access, then remove Root Access and then reenable Root Access.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] boneszbo:
OMG yea u have right ;) I yesterday on night flash again new custom rom and i forgot click All Trusted in Root Manager :)

Thanks you :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] djfoxer:
@Heathcliff74

I try to create RootAccess.xml for Opera Mobile. WP7 Root Tools finds file and install all dll and exe. But when I execute Opera, it shows "Check your unlock state". Can u help me?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Nice effort. But I think RootAccess.xml is not the only thing that is necessary. Ultrashot made some changes to the code that were specifically meant for running in Full Unlock. Those changes need to be undone, because Policy Unlock doesn't work with that and also the current versions of Full Unlock will work in the "default" way now too. So I think you really have to wait for Ultrashot to release a version that is compatible.

Did you try:

Cleaning the port with alcohol?

Straighten the metal tip of the port?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
i did not dare to bend it a little,

scared to break it :laugh:

dont have alcohole....just bacardi whahahha
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
This is known issue and these are known solution for them. Unless you actually force to bend it, you'll probably won't break it. And I think you could spend some bucks to buy a alcohol to fix a problem with 350 dollar phone :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
Is that realy the awnser??? Clean the Filthy contacts??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zaiuss:
don't use alcohol. just buy a can of contact cleaner from the store.

good luck. my nexus s failed the same way. i think it's the micro usb port failing somehow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
That did help quite a few people actually. Can't guarantee that it'll work with yours, but couldn't hurt to try
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
Ill try that tomorrow (im in holland)

Any advice on what to use a quetipp is to large and how much %alcohol to use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
I'm really sorry, but that, you gotta find it out. I never done this before :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
Go to the directory where SDK is installed and go to the extra folder.. google. .USB. .or however its setup until you see the setup.inf file in the USB folder. Double click it. Scroll thru it and you should see the driver setup for the nexus one, ns4g, gnex, nexus 7. If you don't see the gnex I can help. I only ask this because I had an issue and the gnex wasn't in the file.

And if going to use alcohol you have to use the 99% isopopyl
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
How shpuld i do that?my battery is dead
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mihahn:
The Android SDK is installed on your Computer (or yiu can install it). There you can Check if the drivers are really installed, if you go to the folder he told you...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
Dont have it installed on my comp...damn
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
Coult it be that a full restock will do the trick? I orderd a external battery charger
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mihahn:
Just download it here. After installation go to the right folder and check the setup.inf file in usb older, it the galaxy nexus driver is installed...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
Ok will do that butt how will i know if the file exists in my phone??

Or doe i mis understand it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] demon2112:
Wooow not charging gnex all over the place the past day or so...

Wtf!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediNinjafication:
Also, try turning NFC off then plug it in. Enable after its charged if that does it.

I had to do this.

[Captivate General] Klitoni:
Hello everyone.I just got my Captivate.I have read a lot in these days about "rooting, roming" and things like that but im not too clear.

If someone can help me how to root and rom my phone(does one,click root works?) and than install the best version Stable available of the ICS.

Hope someone help me !
[Captivate General] 4-2ndtwin:
Use the Guide provided by TRusselo here... 【Guide】How To flash ANY Captivate ROM from Stock (including ICS)
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
Seems too much complicated for me :(

Is there another simple way?

I must get it root-ed first?

Can i charge it with the usb data cable of the Galaxy s3 gt i9300 ?
[Captivate General] laughingT:
if the instructions to root & flash rom seem too complicated, perhaps it is best that you don't try it on your own. There are services, example mobiletechvideos, that will do it for a fee.

as far as the cable goes, any samsung micro usb phone cable, should do both charging and data fine.

fyi, you probably want to post future questions to the Captivate Q&A forum.
[Captivate General] skomes:
I didn't flash my phone for years because I was too worried about losing data and dealing with all the random garbage of flashing, random errors, bootloops etc. that happen without warning, but trust me, when I did it, it wasn't as bad as I thought. Initially, I had errors and had to reflash to stock by download some other software, so crap happens but I'm decent at flashing now and I only started 2 weeks ago.

I had some trouble and had a thread on this forum and people were helping me and I was helping myself. Have to learn how to do this and then it becomes easy.

But I feel terrible about it because I've hated this phone since the day I got it but with the CM10 fixes it runs so amazingly that I should just keep it, but I still hate it so much I want an S3. Its amazing with the right ROM. I just wish I had flashed it way earlier so that I could enjoy using it instead of hating it for crashing all the time and being laggy.

EDIT: I'll post the guide in another thread
[Captivate General] 4-2ndtwin:
^

There is absolutely no need to get Root before trying to flash a custom rom.

You must, however, use Odin or Heimdall to flash a kernel that has the CWM Recovery. When you have done this, you simply need to reboot into said cwm recovery and flash the rom of your choice.

Please read the Stickied Threads in the General and Q & A Forums. This will help you a lot.
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
First of all i must get ODIN software? Just to let u guys know I wanna install Cyanogenmod 9.1.
[Captivate General] 4-2ndtwin:
The Guide by TRusselo that i linked above in one of my previous posts has a copy of the regular Odin u can download to use. -- Odin3 v1.7.zip is what u need.
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
Now i must chose the kernel ?Wich one should i chosee?

When its time to install clockworkmod ?

Will u help me step by step please?
[Captivate General] Frankle-master:
There are a very few steps for you to install CM9/CM10.

1. On your computer, search for "Odin3 1.85" on Google. The first link should be an XDA link which will directly download Odin3. Unzip it and execute the Odin .exe file.

2. Now search "how to install cm7 captivate wiki", click the second link and scroll down to see "WARNING: INSTALLING A CUSTOM RECOVERY IMAGE ON THE SAMSUNG CAPTIVATE WILL VOID THE WARRANTY." Below that you can download mtcarey's Kernel with ClockworkMod Recovery 5.

3. Put your Captivate in Download mode. To do this, turn it off, hold both volume up and down buttons and plug the phone to your computer. You will probably need Samsung Galaxy S drivers to make the computer to recognize the phone. (I'm not sure about the link, I'll try to get it later)

4. In Odin, make sure the phone is added in the Message box. Click PDA and choose the CWM kernel .tar file you just downloaded. Make sure that ONLY "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" are checked and then click start. Your phone will reboot shortly!

5. You now have a custom recovery in your phone, which will allow you to install any custom ROM. Unplug your phone, remove the battery and put it back on. Hold both volume buttons and the power button to make your phone to boot into Recovery mode. Plug the phone back and in the recovery, navigate to Mounts and Storage with volume buttons. Press Power to select. Now press Mount USB Storage to mount the phone to your computer.

6. Go to get.cm website and find "captivatemtd" in the left section. There you can download the latest CM10 nightly and put it into your phone! Be patient for the download. On your computer, eject your phone, unmount it in recovery and you can unplug it. Navigate to Install zip from SD card, choose zip and find the ROM you downloaded. Wait for it to finish and that's it, enjoy Android Jelly Bean!

Note that your recovery is now ClockworkMod Recovery 6. You can keep this recovery or install another kernel if you want. Search for "captivate android development" on Google, open the XDA link and find a thread that begins with [Kernel][JellyBean] like Devil and Semaphore kernels.
[Captivate General] brttwilliams:
Why stop at ICS? You can go with one of the JB ROM's recently released, I started my flashing experiences with ICS, settled on the SlimICS version and have been upgrading with every new release they've posted
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
I think maybe im wrong, ICS is more stable on my Cappy in base of the ram and the proccesor it has.Maybe im wrong.How is urs working under JB ?

After installing CM9 or 10 The phone uses the kernel of the Rom installed?

Iv read a lot of guides

Yours and one of the member korockinout13 was the simplest ones

Yours use odin and the other heimdall

All the guides are the same and in the finish all have same result?
[Captivate General] Frankle-master:
I hope I helped you and you didn't have any issues!

I suppose they have the same result. The kernel installed in a CyanogenMod ROM comes with the original CWM recovery but I don't think this is a stock ICS/JB kernel.

You can use Heimdall or Odin, maybe the features are different but I'm used to Odin.
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
I havent tried yet ;)

In the moment i install the kernel in PDA on Odin this makes possible the recovery mode when the phone is powered on with volume buttons?
[Captivate General] laughingT:
yes, by flashing a CWM rom, you will be able to backup and restore your current rom as well as flash new roms, by using the three button startup.

if you do the three button startup with your existing non-CWM rom, you will get a simple stock recovery menu but it won't let you do much. hope this helps.
[Captivate General] Frankle-master:
I'm not sure you're right. If your flash the kernel I described (Corn kernel I think), you will then be able to boot into CWM recovery and make a backup. If you want to only backup your apps or SMS, use Titanium Backup. You will need to have root permissions to do this. Go on androidsu dot com slash superuser and download Superuser 3.2 RC3 for ARM devices. You will have to flash it in recovery mode.
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
I must use speedmod kernel before installing cm9 or cm10?
[Captivate General] Frankle-master:
No, unless this is the kernel I told you to download in step 2 (mtcarey's kernel). Flash this one and you will be able to flash CyanogenMod. The phone will probably reboot the recovery when you will start flashing. If the installation doesn't resume automatically, just reflash the zip and you're done.
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
I got it :)
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
Cyanogen mod only "wants" the "mtcarey's Kernel" ?
[Captivate General] mx828:
Simpler method for installing CM on captivate.

1. Download odin one click downloader with drivers( if not already installed on your pc), link:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

2. Install drivers on pc and extract odin file. right click ODIN open as admin on windows vista and up. For xp just double click ODIN.

3. Back up phone data(optional) to a pc.

5. Once Odin is opened up, put the phone in download mode either using adb or jig and connect it to the computer using the usb cable.

6. Once a yellow square is lit up on the open window with odin simply click on the start button. (It will reboot once or twice, that is normal)

7. Now the phone should boot up to Android Eclair. This is fine just proceed.

8. Download any CM9/10 zip. Once downloaded rename the zip file to (update.zip) then place the file the upper part of your sdcard. In other words /sdcard, NOT in the download folder or any other folder found in your sdcard.

9. All you have to do now is just reboot in recovery using adb or 3-button combo and choose the option that says"apply update package". Or something along those lines.NOTE: use volume keys to move up and down the list and the power button to select it.

NOTE: If at anytime in the LAST STEP you encounter an error when applying the update package, then just simply highlight the option to reboot the phone and it should continue the installation. Once the install of the ROM is done and you are booted back into recovery then reboot once more and you should be good!

This Method has worked for me everytime I screwed my phone up, experimenting with it. Anyways I hope this helps someone.
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
I dont have to flash any kernel ?
[Captivate General] RootTheMachine:
It is much easier to flash a kernel than it is to do what the above post says.

Sent from my SGH-I777
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
Yep thats why i got confused
[Captivate General] Klitoni:
If i decide to install CM10 i must use mtcarey kernel just like Cm9?
[Captivate General] RootTheMachine:
Only if you don't already have cwm.
[Captivate General] HG_User:
What you may be in for

Cyanogenmod 9.1 looks and feels very different than what you are used to. I installed it on my Captivate and didn't like it at all, so I decided to go back to Gingerbread. The instructions for backup up and restoring your phone to back out of Cyanogen 9.1 don't work when going from Gingerbread. If you try it you'll have a nonfunctional phone that won't boot. The Gingerbread bootloaders don't work with ICS and above and the ICS and Jellybean bootloaders don't work with GB on a Captivate.

To fix that, you have to use Odin or maybe Heimdall to load a working set of bootloaders and system to your phone. I spent a couple of days messing around and had to get advice how to get Gingerbread working right again on my phone. I now have it working with CWM recovery and I'm happier with it than I originally was.

I think in general, it's highly advisable to see somebody else's phone or a simulation running the version of software you're considering, because returning to what you had can be difficult. I think Samsung did a very good (but slow to roll out) job of Gingerbread implementation on Captivates. It's pretty and works well. The problems I see on it are mostly due to AT&T's customization and junky bloatware, which I've uninstalled, along with the Tethering Manager which is 100% USDA Grade-A Pain in The Ass.
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
Whoa misleading info. If you have Captivate gingerbread, Froyo, or even Eclair boot loaders (depending on which ROM you are in before flashing cyanogenmod) it will still be used after flashing any cyanogenmod ROM. This is because cyanogenmod for Samsung galaxy S series are MTD ROMs, which are different from a stock Samsung galaxy S ROMs (like KK4, KH3, JVU, JVZ, KB1, etc). Not insulting your knowledge or anything, but others might get confused if they read your post.
[Captivate General] HG_User:
re: What you may be in for

Don't be afraid of insulting my knowledge. My understanding of what went wrong could be completely wrong. It could be the bootloaders were really compatible with my Gingerbread version but it was something else that went wrong.

I thought (perhaps naively) that I could use the backup I had made with BackupManager. So I booted into recovery, selected what I thought was the appropriate zip file, installed it and rebooted my phone again. That was unfortunate, because it put my phone in a rebooting loop and I didn't know how to get it back to normal.

I don't really know what caused this to not work. So many things had changed! It had new (to me) bootloaders, system and kernel, all of which were compatible with my phone but after I tried to go back to Gingerbread, they weren't all compatible with one another so the phone wouldn't boot.

I think if I replaced those things with the originals in the right order, everything would have been fine, but being new to this, I don't know what the right order is, didn't know where to find the right versions and wasn't clear what the process is for each.

I would have (and still would) benefit from having an easily-findable index for each kind of phone, with known working versions of software, bootloaders and kernels and compatibility charts, as well as some tutorials for newbies on where to find and how to use standard tools (one-click Odin loaders, standard Odin, Heimdall, etc.).
[Captivate General] panda_mode:
There are stickies in the development, q&a, and in general section where you can find info about flashing and definitions of some important components of the phone. Of course, you need to consider the date of the post because it might be outdated. Take your time to read. When I was new to the forums, I hard bricked my captivate due to misleading self assumptions of flashing boot loaders and I sent it for a JTAG because the phone will not turn on anymore. By reading thoroughly, you will avoid breaking your phone. Nobody should ever go through what I did. It was hell.

Sorry for derailing the thread, OP :)

[Eee Pad Transformer General] htc fan89:
Hey guys,

Not sure if it belongs here or should be in another section, basically I want to share my experience with buying a tablet from best buy with the black tie program. My asus tf101 stopped charging so, I was like aright time to head to best buy to get it repaired. But, They said we don't repair tablets can only replace it with another. I was okay with that too, then they said You got to buy a new warranty since you are getting a new tablet, the old warranty has been fulfilled. Now that's made me angry so you only get 1 replacement out of a 2 year plan.... Epic fail or what? Sorry for my rant....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
i would have gone through asus not best buy to get it replaced or fixed as the device itsself comes with a year warrenty
[Eee Pad Transformer General] htc fan89:
That been awesome but I'm out of the 1 year warranty that Asus offers. Any way I just want to let users know that best buy don't repair tablets so kind of a useless warranty
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jadesse:
The list of stuff that best buy actually fixes is quite small.

Think about it. I could buy a tablet & buy the warranty. Then I could conceivably keep going to best buy to get a newer tablet say one a month. That is the reason their warranty replaces the item once which isn't just unique to tablets.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] htc fan89:
Yeah, but mine had a legit problem and I was basically forced to get a different tablet....It was either take their replacement or leave with a broken tablet....
