[Samsung Infuse 4G] grtdrgn:
FWIW, sadly, I recently asked an independent repair shop about fixing the micro USB port on a smart phone, as I figure they must wear out fairly frequently due to all the plugging and unplugging for charging. They said that except for in the cases of about 3 to 5 models of phones, it is nearly impossible to fix the micro USB port on a phone because it is micro-soldered to the board. However, this may just be due to the fact that the repair shop doesn't have some of the more sophisticated equipment that a bigger repair shop would have. YMMV.

I appreciate your input. I looked online for hardware and the cost didn't suit the needs so I tossed it.

Thank you again for replying though, greatly appreciated.

Hi Everyone,

As the title says I am a noob to rooting and have been researching the various roots,kernels,roms and add on packs, and some answers on what would be the best package for my phone to accomplish the results of what I would like to do,

My Phone Specs:

Samsung Galaxy SII

SGH-T989 (T-Mobile)

4.1.2 (Android Version)

3.0.31-1003885 (Kernel Version)

What I would like to accomplish is remove a bunch of bloatware that came with phone (mainly all of the T-Mobile bloat)...and I would like to connect my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Tablet to the phone and be able to use the phones data connection as a wifi connection via usb tethering.

There it is, let the feast begin...

Thxs in advance for all the answers and comments
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Koragg618:
This link will help you how to root. Before you click on it and follow the steps, when you get to step 13, skip to step 18, and then go back to step 14, but skip 18 this time around. This makes a nandroid backup of your ROM (Recovery Menu > Backup).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2195283

After you've rooted, download "Root Browser" or something similar to that from the Play Store.

After starting Root Browser up, browse to system/app. Then there will be a load of apps there. Simply click on it and select uninstall.

Be sure to know what you're uninstalling. If you mess up, just restore from the backup you made earlier in recovery.

As for your second option, I'm not sure how to help you with that, sorry!

Good luck! :)

EDIT: I found a person you had a problem while he was rooting. This thread will take you there and show you he solution as well

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2352391

Good luck rooting! :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Deathcometh4U:
Thxs Koragg618, for the reply will give the links a good read, after rooting what would you recommend as a good rom package,from what I am seeing and finding is alot of rooters are using the Jedi rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] GaidinBDJ:
CyanogenMOD is probably still the biggest, and if you're new to custom ROMS and rooting, it helps to be able to Google for answers. I see Jedi around a bunch here too, so you'd probably be okay getting help here, but I don't know much about it (I stick with CM). The latest out is CM 10.1 (which is Android 4.2.2).

Another step (once you get confident with using the various ROM/rooting tools) to fine-tuning your phone is updating your radio, and there's an excellent thread with the radios listed for the T989 here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Koragg618:
Yup he's right CM is the biggest in custom ROMs but you can start off with the ROMs based on stock like Jedi, Infamous, & Northern Touch, etc.

Then after you become comfortable with flashing you can move onto AOSP ROMs.

Have fun flashing :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Deathcometh4U:
Thanks GaidinBDJ and Koragg618 you have given me a lot of information to review and links to other information

so am planning to use my captivate again

i am on stock 2.3.5 AT&T rom my phone is network unlock

i want to use a rom for daily usage just whatsapps FB viber and few other app

so i am looking for a good rom and planned to install gamerzRom

but am afraid will my network will be relock to AT&T as am in India using it with local provider

other think what i need to do in order to use this rom.. like su and cwm a guide will be helpful

and if my phone get locks to network how can i unlock it network again
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
- Your phone can't be more than 4 years old. Captivate was announced in June 2010.

- Once unlocked it will stay unlocked after JB upgrade.

- Follow this very clear and easy to understand guide for upgrade procedure.

- Start with CM 10.1, this ROM is the base for almost all JB ROMs for Captivate. You can flash after whatever you want.

- You may need to replace your battery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imranaryan:
i dint calculated actual time.. more than 3years i am having this phone

how to root and install CWM

what tool i need to use.. and how to get back to stock if i want to.. is there any official ICS release
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
About upgrade process just read the guide. It contains all answers to your questions.

The last official ROM for Captivate is GB based Samsung TW, all ICS/JB upgrades are custom ROMs.

[Stock ROMs](OneClicks Master Collection) is the very first sticky thread in Captivate Android Development section.

Please, spend some time to read the information provided on XDA before asking basic questions. Many knowledgeable people sacrificed a lot of there free time to explain everything you need to know about Captivate. Before you run into problems, try to understand the upgrade/downgrade process. And be very careful when playing with images containing bootloaders. Unsuccessful attempt to flash bootloaders will hard brick the phone and this will be the end of all your questions. Good luck!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
I don't know what "sense 5 launcher" is, but I can make almost any launcher mimic Sense interface using corresponding themes, icon packs, widgets, etc. - all available for free on Google Play. Note that you will not be able to 100% duplicate Sense interface features unless you buy a HTC phone. All HTC additions to Android OS are proprietary software and not available for download/use on non-HTC devices.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nguyenthang.ckbk:
Thank you !
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imranaryan:
what is the difference between

With Bootloaders - and - Without Bootloaders

please explain

since i have unlock network phone and i want it to be remain unlock which one is preferred
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
In order to run ICS/JB ROMs you need to have GB bootloaders. In other words, it depends where you start from. If you start from 2.1/2.2, then you need to update the bootloaders. If you start from 2.3.x, then no need to flash bootloaders. This is also explained in the guide. Same thing with stock ROMs. If you never had GB running on your phone and you want to flash KK4, then you need the package with GB bootloaders.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jram0421:
Just a warning

When flashing the bootloaders theres more chance of something to go wrong. I bricked a phone permanently like that.

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 PM ----------

Your phone being unlocked does not affect anything it will remain unlocked no matter what

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:

Since u r on KK4 u should have the GB Bootloaders. (Unless u see a total pixelated screen when u boot ur phone. If u do, then u don't have the Bls. Otherwise ur good to go.)

And here is a [Utility]KK4 Easy Root by Red_81 that u can gain Root access through and also get the KK4 Corn Kernel that has CWM Recovery so that u can proceed with flashin ur rom of choice.

See post # 4 in the thread linked for a workin download...http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26710533&postcount=1

Never used it, just CWM. I just installed this rom (CM10.1) on my DNA, and did a factory reset before I did.

One thing I noticed though, is that even though my files are gone I could still see some of them when I ran DiskUsage. I deleted them, even though they showed as 0bytes.

Right now DiskUsage is showing that I have an 12GB storage card. 7GB is used for "System data" and 4GB is free.

I'm so confused. This is a 16GB phone, but none of the math is adding up.

Only For Huawei u8655-51, Deodexed but work in odexed ROM just delete the odex file (Make a backup of both files apk and odex before )

You need a rooted device, do it at your own risk

1 - Download the SystemUI.apk

2 - Copy To SD

3 - Use any file manager like root browser or root explorer

4 - Copy the apk to /system/apps (You will get a error message after overwrite the file)

5 - Reboot Phone (status bar wont appear)

6 - With the file manager change permission to SystemUI.apk in /system/apps like this rw-r-r.

7 - Reboot once again.

I've yet to see any modem function correctly on a different model gs3. This is why we always say its ok to flash the roms, but that's about it. I can't remember for sure about rom compatibility for your model though so don't go flashing our roms unless you are sure.
