Don't worry about that, the phone won't ring while in download mode ;)

Just make sure nothing interrupts the flash (unplugged cable, program closes, drop phone.. etc) as it will most likely brick it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] girbabe:
I was getting ready to update/root today and I'm not sure what to use for download mode. I have superoneclick with ADB from back in 2011 installed when I first rooted along with kies and all the drivers and I don't know whether to use it or start over or even wipe some it off my PC to avoid conflict. It seems to be the only - or at least the easiest way to get my captivate into download mode but people are reporting issues. I really really don't want to go through the SDK with JRE install process since just reading it gives me a headache. Can you please advise?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
I used Odin, not the one click variety, but the basic one. I followed this guide at android forums, which has been pointed to in many xda threads:

I'm running ViperX 3.3 at the moment. Was running ViperX 3.2 before this and 2.7 before that. Once I installed 3.2, my phone ran well for a few days and I was quite pleased because I've been having tons of issues before that. And one fine day, it just powered down during use. Upon rebooting the device, it got to my home screen and shut down within 5-10 seconds. Tried that a couple more times and it didn't work so I just ran a fresh install of my ROM, with factory reset, clearing cache and dalvik as well. Got to setup screen and powered down again. Tried it again, worked for half hour and powered down again. Got annoyed, flashed cm10 nightlies, but had issues with logging into my google account, would give me the 'unfortunately google account manager has stopped working', I went to accounts and it was saved there but play store would display a 'error retrieving data' sort of message. Removed my sim, switched it to a backup phone and ran viperx3.3 again, left it for 2-3 days and when I noticed that it wasn't powering down, I switched back. Ran smooth for a day. It just shut down again. I have absolutely no idea what to do now.

Another odd thing that I've noticed since installing ViperX 3.2/3.3 is that my clock speed has been capped at speeds under 1.5 (1.3, 1.4, 1.2, changes every time I freshly install my ROM). Haven't messed around with overclocking/undervolting at all. Clock speeds are set to 1.5 max and the 54 min but if I change the min to 1.5, it stays at 1.2/1.3/1.4.

Please help. I've tried searching extensively but can't seem to find any threads similar to this.

EDIT: Happens after reflashing with wipe as well.

I know people who don't want to keep their phones near their ears because of the electric waves of the antenna, and think they'd better using (wired) earbuds. In my opinion this habit might be even worse: if we keep our headphones right in our ears, don't we "work as" an antenna for our phone?

I've never used my phone as a music player for this reason; could someone tell me if I'm wrong?

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] davidf9:
Just a thought - have you installed the Google Apps package (often simply called GAPPS) which need installing separately in CM? That might be why you had to install gmail separately, but it means you'll be missing other stuff too. You can find the GAPPS download link in the CM9 thread. Use the right one, so NOT the one for CM10.

Ok this kind of problem i haven't seen. I've searched the whole interweb for someone with problem like this.

So. I had restored my phone and setting back to factory settings. Then i downloaded a file manager (ASTRO). The application was running and i locked the phone. I tried to unlock but it did not recognize. Then i tried different buttons everything worked, i just couldnt see anything from the screen.So i removed the battery and tried to reboot. it vibrated normally but nothing on the screen. I waited for couple of hours and THERE! it booted. But little later it did it again. When it does it i press the power button to lock it and the screen flashes. it can only be seen in the dark. It did that many times. I've used update service and i have updated the phone like ten times but still the same. I found out the bootloop by booting it and then plugging it to computer. The computer recognizes it but then i hear the usb removing sound. THE PHONE DOESN'T EVEN BOOT TO THE "Sony Ericsson" SCREEN. I've flashed 4.0.2.A.0.58_EnhancedV2.ftf but it has the same problem. then i flashed 4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic_UK.ftf (4.0.2.A.0.42 is stock) but no. phone is rooted and has custom recovery and bootloader unlocked. This is strange.. never seen this kind of problem. I thought it was some application that causes this but flashing wipes all data, right?

Thanks already. You are better with these than me.

Hi,

First post so please go easy! :)

I am currently running CM10.1 on my I9000 and for some reason there is no signal but IMEI is intact. I can't understand why this is as when I flash back to stock GB I get strong signal. The only thing that I think may be affecting this is that I recently repaired my IMEI via SRS whilst running GB and so there may be something (e.g. file/setting) that is not passed on/incompatible with JB. I have tried a number of different JB ROMS as well as many relevant modems with no success.

Any help is very much appreciated as I really want to get JB running correctly on my phone, I can't go back to GB now haha!

P.S I have a backup of the EFS folder so any suggestions involving this are welcome.

Stock. Locked. Not rooted.

Android 4.1.1

I've done my research, read multiple guides, and come up with a plan for myself. If you'd be so kind, I'd appreciate it if you would look at it and let me know if I've interpreted everything correctly and come up with a solid plan. I'm going to give vanilla 4.2 a try. I figure that'll be a good way to establish a baseline and help me identify anything I want to change. (E.g. Poor battery life, etc., whatever.)

My plan:

1) 75%+ battery charge. Keep it plugged in.

2) Enable USB debugging.

3) I've already backed up my critical data, so I won't cry if I "lose everything."

4) *Unlock it.

5) *Root it.

6) Use ROM Manager to flash ClockworkMod.

7) Reboot into recovery.

8) Create a (Nandroid) backup.

9) Perform a factory reset.

10) Normal reboot.

11) Test/play with it.

12) Check ROM MD5

13) Reboot into recovery.

14) Create a (Nandroid) backup.

15) Wipe cache/dalvik.

16) Wash my hands.

17) *Load ROM zip. (Haven't picked one yet.)

18) Load GAPPS if necessary. (Prior to reboot)

19) Normal reboot.

20) Test/play with it.

21) Check Kernel MD5.

22) Reboot into recovery.

23) Create a (Nandroid) backup.

24) Wipe cache/dalvik.

25) Wash my hands.

26) *Flash kernel. (Haven't picked one yet.)

27) Normal reboot.

28) Test/play with it.

29) Check radio package MD5.

30) Reboot into recovery.

31) Create a (Nandroid) backup.

32) Wipe cache/dalvik.

33) Wash my hands.

34) *Update radios. (From zero neck.)

35) Normal reboot.

36) Test/play with it.

37) Reboot into recovery.

38) Create a (Nandroid) backup.

39) Wipe cache/dalvik.

40) Wash my hands.

41) Normal reboot.

42) Enjoy phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bodh:
So many steps!

What I'd do: use fastboot and adb and skip Rom manager.. assuming you already have drivers!

I'd say its important to note that you can choose to keep stock recovery. Why? IDK for your circumstances, but you can by fastboot boot *cwm.img*. Nandroid before or after rooting, its up to you...

Keep in mind the factory script that patches recovery, which may be why you're choosing rom manager.

14. seems like an unnecessary additional nandroid.

I'm impressed though, I mapped mine out first and had like 17 steps. Considering that you havent chosen a rom nor a kernel yet, i'd say take your time. Stock rooted is a sh*t ton of fun. After your rom, try it for a week. Then maybe a kernel. But no jumping into anything! As long as you have your nandroids of each working system, you should be fine. And lastly, consider adb reboot commands to save your hardware buttons!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
Check plus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neerajvd:
Nice Summary

Interesting steps listing. :good:

And as you haven,t chosen a ROM yet, I would suggest try around a few ROM's initially.

I started with JellyB TSM, then moved to Xenon HD. Both were impressive in terms of speed and customizations.

I am now running ParanoidAndroid latest release. (You can try this last. Coz it is extremely addictive)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chasew83:
looks good! i would use twrp rather than clockwork. and sourcery is a great rom to try. the devs are probably the best ive seen, not knocking anybody, and are very involved. so much you can customize it crazy.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meganame:
Thank you for the feedback, guys. Good to know I've understood the material. I'll start researching ROM's again. Without something really simple, like a comparison chart, then choosing one has been a challenge. I think I may be familiar enough with the process to understand the differences between them now so I'll head that way and axe questions in their respective threads. Thanks again, everyone. I'll revisit this thread after I've picked a ROM.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
I would not use the toolkit unless i'm sure how to use fastboot and adb in case things go horribly wrong and toolkits usually can't pull you out of many simple problems as the toolkits are only programmed to do the specific tasks in specific order.

I applaud you, sir. Doing things the manual way first will save you lots of hassle. Tip: ./adb and ./fastboot work instead of ./adb-mac, ./fastboot-mac..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jolle_1:
Some tool kits (Wug's if I remember correctly) will also let you use adb and fastboot from the kit without installing sdk. If you end up using a a toolkit this is an easy way of starting to learn how to use adb and fastboot

[Samsung Infuse 4G] jesi.james:
Whenever you flash a rom, always allow a couple days for the battery levels to stabilize. You just recently flashed it so it has to download, search files and whatnot and that drains the battery for the time being. The battery is going to give incorrect stats at first anyways because it needs to recoup and adjust to the new ROM too.
