[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lgevo:
this is the 1st time i am gonna flash a radio and a kernal (i am using kings kernal for cm6/aosp roms).

1. will the latest radio work safely?

2. should i even flash the new wimax because i am on cm6?

3. i just flash these like custom roms correct?

i searched and couldn't find the answer about the radio which makes me assume its safe to flash with any rom with any radio but figure better safe then sorry

I recently had to factory reset my phone and i had a ryan one click lag fix running. The problem is now when i run quadrant scores it is back at 885 but when i go back into the one click lag fix app it says i cant install it because i already have one running. But when i go uninstall lagfix it stats that i dont have one.

Any ideas on how else i can uninstall it then just through the app or how i can run it again?

Thanks

[Nexus One General] ViSK:
Hi everybody! :D

I'm trying to buy a used Nexus One, good price, but the owner claims that the phone "continuously reboots to "X" screen." but that IT can be fixed flashing the rom.

Is it true?

I'm reading on the internet that having the nexus one loop rebooting is a somehow common problem, and people got it fixed flashing the rom, or by moving some shifted pins on the battery. Do you guys think it's something reparable? Everybody that had this issue solved it? Or I risk that the phone is actually broken, and I might be buying a phone that I will not be able to use?

Thanks! ;)
[Nexus One General] ohgood:
fastboot

just check for fastboot. the rest is easy cheeze.

how much is a good deal ?
[Nexus One General] ViSK:
unlocked $300 (cad) :rolleyes:

What should I check? Instruct me plz, I never had a nexus one or even a Droid phone before ... (coming from 2 years old HTC cruise, with WM 6.5 with an XDA rom ....)

If I meet the guy, how to I check that hes not selling me a bricked nexus lol ? :P
[Nexus One General] Amritttt:
Installing a new rom will fix it
[Nexus One General] ViSK:
are you 100% ? :D

I dont mind working on it, I just want to make sure that it is reparable via software/roms.

ppl plz tell yours, im just about calling this guy, really dont wanna waste $300 :eek:

what is its restarts so much, that I cant flash the rom or something? there's no way that that could be the case, right?
[Nexus One General] ViSK:
sold ... goddamit lol :p But I'll get one one way or another :rolleyes:
[Nexus One General] adambenjamin:
I was having this happen to me a lot. I moved in to a new place with no cable or internet yet, so my N1 was under extremely heavy use. And when it was warm, it would get both the touch screen problem and the random reboots.

I was using pershoots 2.35 Kernal. I went back to the stock kernal and the phone has since been running a lot cooler. Zero reboots, touch screen responds correctly. I take the stock kernal stability over an OC kernal any day.
[Nexus One General] lynxboy:
It's a kernel issue that can most likely be fixed by flashing a new

ROM/Kernel, however there is always a small chance that it is triggered by faulty hardware.
[Nexus One General] Tech_Boy:
My Nexus had this Problem Was unfixable by software. Hardware defect. I wouldn't buy.

Still waiting for my swap unit
[Nexus One General] xxlikquidxx:
i had a friend with a similar problem. He rooted the phone with the 1-click root app from the market, he then installed ROM manager from the market and try to flash Cyanogen mod ROM, afterward the phone went black. The only thing happen to the phone now is the X screen and its keep boot loop. I tried went to fastboot, works fine, then I tried to go to Recovery but it restart right afterward!!!

Now how am I suppose to wipe, or flash new rom without getting into the recovery? I got to fastboot and plugged in the USB cable and tried to ran terminal but it was unsucessful. I tried to copy some new files to the phone via adb command but keep getting the error "BootMagic failed".

Any help?
[Nexus One General] Stea1thmode:
all is not lost if you can still get into hboot:

Have you tried to restore these original files via adb?

boot boot.img

recovery.img

system.img
[Nexus One General] magdap:
I have this problem now...

It keeps on rebooting and rebooting ... and just comes not forther than the flashing X..

I tried system wipe but this didnt help ( I installed a battery widget which wasn't for my rom)

how can i restore my nexus now?

Pleas help!

Edit: Found a way...

Unlock you phone, fastboot, clockworkmod(?) recovery and the select the nandroid backup...

about passimg (see lower) i have no clue
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
passimg FRG33...
[Nexus One General] ROM_Guest:
Even though solved, something to keep in mind: Its probably a ROM (or kernel issue as they said), but I had a revolving X due to a bad battery too.
[Nexus One General] swapniladsure:
it can be solved

4 color problem can be solved ..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mb76:
I recently changed my ROM to Cloudy, everythings going great apart from one issue, not sure if it's ROM related or not.

Pressing buttons on the standard headset brings up WMP, even if I'm already listening to music on Sense music player, makes a bit of a mokry having to take my phone out to skip tracks.

I've searched just about every term I can think of to see if anyone else as had this problem and finally gave up to ask the experts.

Anyone able to throw any light on how to make it work again?
[EVO 4G General] brownmc77:
Anybody know of a program that will restore widgets to their respectful place after a wipe, or upgrade. Kinda getting tired of placing each and every widget each time I wipe. Thanks in advanced.

[EVO 4G General] ISSMER:
Titanium Backup will restore your apps and settings ....but the only way I know how to restore your widget setup is via nandroid backup
[EVO 4G General] dglowe343:
The Desktop system app contains your homescreen setup. Caution when restoring system apps though.

There is no way to really, consistently, do what you're asking, thanks to the limitations of the Android system.
[EVO 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Maybe someone could figure out a way to export "scenes" to the SD card then you could just save your scene, flash a new sense rom and have everything back how you had it.

I'm just brainstorming, I have no clue if "scenes" can be exported
[EVO 4G General] sombdy:
MyBackup Pro sort of does it. It has a function specifically for restoring homescreens but does not work perfectly.
[EVO 4G General] phobos512:
If you use adw it can backup your desktop configuration. That's what I do.
[EVO 4G General] dglowe343:
There's a system app named HTC SENSE: DESKTOP. It stores your desktop config. Restoring system apps from one rom to another can cause issues. I'm not sure of specific issues cuz I usually only restore WiFi access points.

[EVO 4G General] DeMiNe0:
I use this cool thing called pen and paper. It lets you write down where everything is on the home screen. Then when you restore, you can look at the "paper" part, to figure out where everything goes. Isn't that cool?
[EVO 4G General] ijrod21i:
Or you could take a screenshot of each screen then put those on your computer and look at them while you're restoring your screens. None of this "paper" business... whatever "paper" means.
[EVO 4G General] IzzyIsaac:
My Backup Pro works quite well for me
[EVO 4G General] chaoticallysweet:
+1 I use shoot me before I wipe for all screens, but it is still a pain:o
[EVO 4G General] TheBiles:
You can't. Just remember where your widgets are or take screens if you really have that many.
[EVO 4G General] Punchatron:
Or take a screenshot of each home screen? If rooted, of course.

Just noticed someone mentioned this idea already.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
I think it's supposed to be in the market, but I haven't been able to find it.;)

+1 for screenshots though
[EVO 4G General] tracyjarchow:
I found out by accident that if I back up all apps and data with Titanium Backup and then flash whatever... when I restore with Titanium my apps come back but I also discovered that when I power off and then power back on my previous personal scene and apps and widgets all return to where I had them.

I think that is what is being asked. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
Hiya!

One night i was playing too much on my phone, and it caused me to have a dream about it. In that dream I had a great lock screen, which actually came from the "smart life" video. It should be on your phone as well, but if not, I post a youtube link here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaSRP4jGvVo

Check the video at 0:40....

Does anybody gets what I mean? :D:D:D

I'd be happy to see this as a lock screen, and let's say the lock screen background would be different. Or blurred a bit.

Unfortunately I'm not a dev, but I'd really give money for this one!!

Who else likes the idea and would pay for it? It might motivate some devs :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BronzedDroid:
Definately doable but I don't see it happening as a developer would probably have to model and animate the effect in 3D which is a lot of work. There might be some similar open source graphical design that may be ported, I don't know.

But a very cool idea, though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
Yes, I was thinking about this as well, but there must be a template somewhere! If not, than get a camera, do it in real life, record it, and do the math on the pc. Not sure how it works, just trying to find a solution.

Please somebody!!!! We are waiting for it! :)

[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
DO NOT FLASH THE VOODOO LAGFIX WITH THIS ROM!

Download: http://www.multiupload.com/SXWLND5AKI

That file contains ODIN, the 512 pit file, the original firmware and the new leaked firmware!

To use ODIN you need the samsung drivers installed. You can get them here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=728929

How to flash the update using odin.

Power phone off

Plug USB to computer but not phone

Open Odin.exe

Plug the USB into your phone while holding down the volume keys (Don't touch power!)

One of the fields will turn yellow in ODIN

Click PIT and select the 512.pit file

Click PDA and select the Update.tar file if you want to try the leaked rom or Original.tar if you want the stock rom

Click start

Odin will do it's thing and then the phone should reboot. It will take a few minutes for it to reboot the first time.

DO NOT CLICK RE-PARTITION WHEN USING Update.tar! The leaked rom does not include dbdata.rfs

If you already did that, you will need to flash back to the original rom included in the download first and then flash this new one... The original rom does include dbdata.rfs which will will repartition the phone correctly.

As always, I am not responsible for anything you do... ever...

P.S. Please don't trash talk in this thread.

Nandroid of a clean install: http://www.multiupload.com/FLX6P17XDP

I flashed back to the original rom and tried to use this nandroid to upgrade and it didn't work. Just sat at the Vibrant screen.
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
What it is:

Leaked rom from samfirmware.com

Android 2.1 (Eclair)

Good things:

New battery full notification

HD Camcorder (Same thing just new name)

Media Hub

Samsung Task Manager (Also available when holding home)

New Swype with the audio input!

Old Root method still works (verified)

Phone is usable during media scanning

YouTube can be set to HD

Cosmetic updates to music player

New and re-arranged browser settings

I tested GPS while driving, at 3 destinations in 3 different cities and all of them locked on within seconds! I also rebooted and tested at each location just to make sure and it grabbed immediately. I did notice while testing at home it was much faster in the Maps app then most other apps that use GPS.

Bad Things:

Can't flash JAC's kernel without modifications

Many apps missing from market

There is a fix below...

Slide to unlock screen takes a way bigger slide

The lag is coming back. I'm going to pull the apps I like and go back to the stock rom worth voodoo.

Linpack (1st run) 8.13

Quadrant (1st run) 894

The only thing I DON'T like about this rom is that apps are missing from market.

I have tested on 2 different phones. 1 was normal with lagfixes, etc installed and after flashing there were weird problems with the camcorder, etc. We then flashed it back to stock using the old samsung release in odin and flashed the update, now everything is working great. You might want to revert your lagfixes or something before running this. Maybe it's because it doesn't include dbdata.rfs?

TO FIX THE MARKET:

Use something like Root Explorer to mount the system as r/w and then edit /system/build.prop

The 2 lines to update currently show

Update UVJI2 to UVJFD in both lines like below

After you download a few apps the market will refresh and it will work again.
[Vibrant Android Development] questgraves:
awesome!

I'll bet the gps fix also! this is a nice base before voodoo. thanks!

I'm going to do some tests.
[Vibrant Android Development] WilliamStern:
Simple question...

Does ODIN work with Mac, or is it still just PC?
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
As far as I know, only on PC.
[Vibrant Android Development] joshthewaster:
Which means I have to wait til I'm at work monday :( unless an awesome person makes a version we can flash from recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] WilliamStern:
Damn! Ok, I'll just bust out my PC laptop for this one. Can someone post a link to which ver of ODIN I need to downlown for this? Or is it already added in the link above?

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] DriftorX:
Anyone have a mirror of the download? Also.. what is the leak? is it Froyo 2.2?

does this odin works for new hardware locked vibrants? i have mine stuck at triangle screen . and i have tried all the combinations nothing works. what do i do
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
This is the same odin. Try following my instructions. If they don't work for you, you are either doing them wrong or are out of luck.

i guess i m out of luck. :(
[Vibrant Android Development] nickerrides:
Has anyone with root and lag fix tried this?
[Vibrant Android Development] g1g:
I just did this and it worked flawless i then used the multi tool to reroot and it worked but when i tried to change the boot screen with multi tool it aborted for some reason so i then flashed new boot screen thru cw and work perfect .... now to explore and see whats new...:rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] masterotaku:
Add to the good things that the Youtube app now allows you to specify HD as the preferred stream method...Samsung Media Hub working as well....though I could care less about that..
[Vibrant Android Development] Deleted member 2653512:
quick question boys and girls...

i'm running Win7 x64. i have read on another site that ODIN doesn't play well with x64 environments. is that why it's not detecting my phone on the com channel?
[Vibrant Android Development] questgraves:
It's Fine

I was Rooted, highly modded, JAC's OCv4 lag fix ext4. many UI mods etc. everything worked flawless and all my mods are going back on without a hitch
[Vibrant Android Development] gravis86:
Yeah probably. I dual booted 32-bit just so I could play with my phones without problems (I also have an N900)

[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Is this rom really signifcantly better than stock? and does anyone know if eugenes flashable zip works to delete the tw launcher?
[Vibrant Android Development] jmz:
No none of these help because I get nothing but the phone ! computer screen at any time. NOTHING works. ADB never recognizes it ever. I understand all the little "tricks" but none worked at all. Mainly because if the phone was off and i plugged in the USB it would immediately turn on and go to the phone ! computer screen without fail or anything else showing up.
[Vibrant Android Development] SeanFloyd:
I immediately noticed the phone to be more responsive. Previously I was using a rooted Vibrant with a lag fix. It's noticeably faster now when switching screens, long pressing the menu to bring up widgets etc. In addition my GPS (which never worked before) got a lock almost immediately.
[Vibrant Android Development] The K-Zoo Kid:
Thanks for the response.. i think i will flash it later tonight when i get done with this HW :( is it possible to remove the tw launcher with eugenes zip?
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Hu weird I didn't know adb was suppose to work when it showed phone!computer, well anyway I'm going to wait for 2.2 here in a few weeks to hit on here sticking with hybrid3 tell then ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] grennis:
Edit... Deleted my post... Read it again and it makes sense now

But you do realize that if your phone is hardware locked, you are playing with fire by using odin... One bad flash and you get stuck at the phone ! computer screen and your phone is a brick.
[Vibrant Android Development] tjhart85:
This is pretty amazing. It's running quick & smooth (even after I restored everything back with titanium backup) and the GPS locked on almost immediately. I was used to waiting up to 5 minutes before, so that was quite the shock!
[Vibrant Android Development] HectikDroid:
maybe?

Can you pull the new Media Hub apk? that would be awsome:)
[Vibrant Android Development] drmosh:
I can confirm GPS is way better... and lag has been cut down significantly... Samsung is on the right path, Froyo should make this the phone it's supposed to be...
[Vibrant Android Development] pgibbons:
I had the phone ! computer screen too once because Odin looked like it was stuck starting up and I powered off the phone (the blue progress bar never started - which I think really bricks your phone if you power it off then).

This is how I got into recovery mode. I got my phone the 1st week it came out so I don't know if you have a later build that behaves differently?

Remove the battery.

Connect the phone to your PC with Odin running. Odin will not see the phone yet.

Connect the battery. When you put the battery back in you should see the battery charging screen.

Hold down the volume up + volume down button and the power button to turn it on. Keep holding all 3 buttons.

As soon as the the battery charging image goes away, release only the power button.

You should get to the downloading screen.

Unplug the USB and replug in the USB and then it should be seen by Odin where you can re-flash it.
[Vibrant Android Development] xfernand:
This is not for the AT&T Captivate. Only for the Vibrant. I have to revert to stock now bc of multiple errors.
[Vibrant Android Development] youneek:
I have now uploaded a nandroid of a clean install. I flashed the original rom with partitions and then the new one, rooted and made a nandroid. I'm going to attempt to flash the original rom and then restore this nandroid and see if that works as an alternative to odin...
[Vibrant Android Development] Uglyboyed:
My 3g is ALOT more consistent now. My main issues with the phone was the gps and the reception. Both are performing great. Phone works smoothly, little to no lag and market fix worked like a charm.
