YEa I guessed as much thats why I was trying not to "flame" and to be informative you are a victim of exactly what I am talking about. Because so many people throw around the word brick anytime anything goes wrong not only is it losing its meaning but people are also getting confused.
[Vibrant General] daddysays:
This does work, it took me about 7 hours last night to fix it.

I will say if it does not work then keep trying.

My flash kept freezing on the froyo rom and would not finish, so I actually had to try and flash the full captivate stock rom (search the captivate forum) it froze but afterwords it let me go throught the whole flash process with Eugenes 2.2 rom, then flashed right back to 2.1 no prob.

I will also say that if you are on a x64 system then go find a x86 (32 bit) system. I dont know why but it just works better.

So if it doesnt work then do this:

1. Make sure you are on a 32 bit system.

2. Flash a Full Rom from the Captivate forum. (It has a more to it I believe, changes the system maybe?)

3. If it freezes that is ok. Flash the 2.2 rom. (might need to do it a couple times)

4. After successful flash then go to stock.

I'm having a really hard time getting to download mode. Read all the threads I could find on it.

Any ideas? Download mode isn't removed when partitioning with rom manager is it?

I'm trying not to freak out...
[Vibrant General] brandnewsimmy:
After fighting with it I found out this worked best for me:

Battery out

Plug in USB cord to the phone and PC

Hold Vol up and down

Put the battery in

Phone should boot right into download mode.

Also, I found you should have Odin open FIRST before you do this. If I didn't I would have constant issues with Odin hanging.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kallaim:
I have successfully debranded my 3 branded Desire with software version 1.22.771.1. Steps:

1. Make a goldcard.

2. With unrevoked3 root your phone.

3. Patch the /misc partition with update.zip (found on modaco forums, www .shadowchild. nl/fixmisc/update.zip).

4. Install RUU with goldcard in phone (you won't get error 140). I had to restart my phone with adb reboot bootloader.

5. Flash OTA update.zip from sdcard.

This worked for me.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barney2005:
Works with vodafone bloatware

I guess I'm not surprised this is so unpopular, because it's pretty much a cm-nightly... but we all appreciate any extra work and time spent for the benefit of the community. I grabbed it because it has gapps and gmaps already :)
[G1 Android Development] YarsRevenge78:
Thanks for checking it out. I'm just getting started cooking, trying to figure things out. I know this is pretty simple, but I figured I'd make it available anyway for everybody who likes to keep it simple. I thought about making it market and gmail only, since market auto-downloads what you had installed anyway, but I figured that would just be too simple.

It looks like there is a lot of information available in the Chef Central forum, and everywhere else. Hopefully as I learn more about this, it will turn into something more interesting.

[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
I'd remove that attachment if i were u. It's been removed from the market due to legal conflicts with Htc. Hence no mod would like to see that :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] AdrianK:
It got removed because HTC didn't want people using what are essentially stolen parts of their UI on non-Sense devices. I don't see any mods removing ROMs containing Sense in their entirety. Removing it for that reason would be highly contradictory.

I'm also not using this, considering nightlies can be found here updated daily and the 'modifications' can be achieved by bashing a couple of commands in to the terminal.
[G1 Android Development] Daneshm90:
It's different though. Htc hasn't complained or issued any cease/desist letters for htc sense roms, but has for paid apps that are very similar in ui to their proprietary apps. Refer to xda mods taking action here.
[G1 Android Development] Royalknight6190:
I agree with Daneshm90 on this after everything I have read I would remove it just to cover your butt.
[G1 Android Development] YarsRevenge78:
I didn't think there would be a problem since it wasn't a paid app and I have seen this in other roms. Maybe I'll remove it in my next version. Thanks for the heads up.

I have removed the links for now, until I get further clarification about including the Fancy Widget.
[Legend General] ryaneu:
Does anyone know why the Desire got the froyo update first when the Legend actually came out earlier than them?
[Legend General] mathias.lithen:
Because Desire is HTC's flagship, top of the line, finest product would be my guess.

And I don't how heavy 2.2 is to run but Desire comes with the 1GHz Snapdragon CPU and will run a less fine-tuned OS better than the Legend (this is also a wild guess)..

Edit: another reason is the N1, with almoast the same specs as the desire meaning its easyer for htc engineers to modify it for desire.
[Legend General] kazzaz:
will the legend ever get the update ?
[Legend General] polarn:
I sent a question to HTC yesterday, asking when we can expect the update on the legend... This was their answer:

"Android 2.2 (Froyo) update is sent out to customers in waves. This is done so we don’t overload our system. And because of this it may take longer for some of our customers to get it. You can try searching for it by typing the following: Settings -> about phone -> updating systems software -> Search now"

Not sure if she misunderstood me, I specified that I've got a Legend, but I would guess the response could be interpreted as if she thought I've got a Desire. I dunno. I just want the update. :)
[Legend General] ananthm2k5:
even the EVO got the froyo update ... so i dont think thats the reason ... its probably cause the Desire has a larger user community then the Legend ..
[Legend General] JonasDroid:
I'm pretty sure we'll get it but we will have to wait until all other phones made in 2010 get it.

Because the Legend has the smallest community.

That's just simply what HTC needs to do, satisfy as much people as fast as possible.

So after all EVO users got there updates it's probably going to be the wildfire who's next and then probably us.

The legend hasn't specifically been named, but they have said that all android devices made in 2010 will get the update in Q3. So the legend will get it, just be patient.
[Legend General] ryaneu:
Are you serious that even the Wildfire will get the update earlier than us? This must be the biggest joke ever.

So HTC's strategy is to get the more popular phones updated first and place the less popular ones below?
[Legend General] Bibu94:
Who told u wildfire got it?
[Legend General] ananthm2k5:
I dont think the Wildfire will get it before the Legend. The Wildfire is a mass-market low-end device unlike the Legend.

I think the delay is due to addition of new features like Live Wallpapers, as Froyo gives a supposed 450% performance boost that coupled with the same graphics chip as the Nexus One and the Desire should give the Legend a lot of processing power.
[Legend General] TheDeadCPU:
I agree. The Wildfire will probably get it before the Legend.

But the Legend will get it before Q4 afaik. Since HTC said all their 2010 devices would.
[Legend General] meltz:
think on the bright side .. HTC trying to integrate live wallpaper into froyo 2.2 for legend user that why it take so long.. :D
[Legend General] kazzaz:
who said wildfire community is bigger than the legend .. i don't think so ...
[Legend General] JonasDroid:
Are you sure that Legend is getting live wallpapers? Where did you hear that?

I just suppose it is, it is much more price friendly therefore much more in the price tag that most people are looking for.
[Legend General] kazzaz:
jonas :

yea right , but still the extra money offers better specifcations and many also will think put the extra money for extra quality ..

but anyway wildfire first or the legend it dosen't matter but the most important thing that they should not forget the legend ..
[Legend General] ryaneu:
Its probably easier for HTC to update the Wildfire because of its lower hardware specs.
[Legend General] TheDeadCPU:
Yea, probably not.

But no one can know which gets it first.

And if the Wildfire gets FroYo first. It's probably because it's newer. But as said before. All 2010 HTC devices will have FroYo before Q4.

Hopefully.. Never know with HTC.
[Legend General] kazzaz:
if the wildfire gets the update i will have no doubt that the legend will get it because of the similir specifcations and hardware ...

Any Fixes on "Failed" when sending an SMS? (already searched and I tried master resets)

using the Samsung Vibrant's stock SMS app, I will often find the speech bubble when sending an SMS turning grey and instead of a timestamp it shows "Failed" and an Envelope with exclamation mark wind up in the notification bar.

I have to long press and click resend. However, sometimes it won't resend it just goes right back to "failed" over and over. I have also had all messages fail. this can be in full 3g signal, low edge signal, or in between so it wasn't no service. it's weird. its like it only tries once to send the text and if it doesn't go thru right away its shot.

I don't like Handcent/Chomp as they seem to act funny for me and I don't think the SMS issue happens any less.
[Vibrant General] oDeACoNo:
It's happened to me a few times as well, usually i just restart the phone or give it a couple of min and retry it. Not sure what the cause is or how to fix it atm.

If it has froyo currently you cant Root it. I dont beleive you can "unlock it" and "flash" it to another carrier either since you would need root for this. So basically you may have to sit on it till a 2.2 root method comes out before yuoc an do anything.

My phone's USB port is broken; it will only charge when I torque the charging cable upwards. Since I bought it at RadioShack, but kept the Asurion protection on my Sprint plan, and it's probably still going to be covered under warranty (don't think they're going to say it was my fault since no other physical damage), where should I take it to be repaired/replaced?

I've always taken my phones to a regional Sprint store with a repair facility (it's drivable, but RS is much closer), but since this was a RS purchase, I wasn't sure if I go there first.

So whenever I talk to my wife she always ends up hitting buttons on the screen. (mute, speaker, etc) I told her that the screen should automatically turn off and that maybe something was wrong with her device. As soon as I got home I tested it and it worked just fine. I couldn't get it to happen, light sensor was very responsive.

Somehow she manages to hit buttons and I have no idea how. I covered up the light sensor and tried hitting every button/screen area and nothing happened.
