ADB WHOOO!

OK... yes I'm a noob and this is my first android phone, I just learned how to use adb Just so I can use the framework, this is TIGHT! I like how it's aranged (clock and stuff...) Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
Firstly, thanks for the great work. And I have a question now. I use the lag fix in this thread. But now I would like to disable it. How to? Thanks all..
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
How-to disable Lag Fix

adb shell

su

mv /system/bin/userinit.sh /system/bin/used

reboot

;)
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
Thanks for the reply. But when i'm writing this command, it says Permission Denied. Why? and how to solve? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
Ok, I got it. I must allow the super user when typed su... when I have done the command. It says "failed on '/system/bin/userinit.sh' - No such file or directory". What does it mean? But I never removed it before this time
[Vibrant Android Development] dddtc2005:
OK...I'v solved...I think I install incompletely last time...So I reinstalled and remove it again. I ask and answer myself....LOL

[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:
So I checked my battery usage and noticed that voice calls took up about 70% of my battery usage. My battery level was around 41% total and it said it was on for 12 hours or so.

I saw on a buddie's captivate his voice calls didn't take up near as much. Could it be this rom or something else?
[Vibrant Android Development] nermie:
Maybe you made more voice calls than your buddy?
[Vibrant Android Development] kizer:
Yep, LOL that sounds about right.
[Vibrant Android Development] Daddy_617:
Yes!!! New theme. I love this rom, thanks eugene!
[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:
At 70%, voice calls were at 22-23 minutes. It may have been more but why would it use up 70% of my battery?

Edit: or maybe im just over thinking this. I've had my phone unplugged for over an hour with under 4 minutes of talk time and it says it used 56% of the battery (battery is at 95%). Is it supposed to read that high?
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
U used 4%. In 56% of that 4% of battery were used by talk time. U get what I'm saying? So voice mail used 2.24%.
[Vibrant Android Development] richan90:
It just means you haven't done much with the phone other than voice calls. If you browse the net for an hour or two I'm sure your voice call % usage would go down.
[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:
K, that all makes sense. Good to know, thanks.

On a side note, do any of you have trouble imputting text when the phone is charging? Mine is super laggy.
[Vibrant Android Development] eunkipark92:
Its probably due to overheat.

The phone overheard when u try to use it while charging
[Vibrant Android Development] Kubernetes:
What charger are you using? My phone lags terribly with some generic chargers.
[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:
I use some double USB charger from eBay. But it also lags when I plug into computer or USB car charger.
[Vibrant Android Development] Daddy_617:
Vanilla mod with battery ftw! Eugene your the man,
[Vibrant Android Development] EvilPickle:
Not sure if this has been asked before.. but any idea why when I reboot the "samsung" swirl and logo keeps repeating? It keeps going till I hit one of the bottom buttons(menu.. ect) then it goes to the unlock screen.
[Vibrant Android Development] wolfvgang:
Two problems

Installed this ROM two weeks ago, and I love it - except for two problems.

The first problem has been documented: when the media volume is turned down in android settings the call volume is also turned down. It didn't work that way when stock, the volumes were independent in stock. I am unable to turn the volume up while on a call with the rocker buttons. I have to put the person I'm talking to on hold and go into settings and turn up media volume with this ROM.

The second problem is that my battery life is now less than half of what it used to be when stock. I can only play Angry Birds for about 30 minutes, or make 2-3 short phone calls and be down at 10% or less.

I read through this thread as much as I can and searched and can't seem to find answers to these issues so far, and I hate to flash a different ROM. Am I missing something?

For now I'm going to flash Bionix Final and see if that helps.
[Vibrant Android Development] coradux:
I've tried to install this on a International Samsung Galaxy S with Froyo JPA. Doesn't install. Any thoughts?
[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:
i haven't been able to find an exact answer to this question: Can I flash the J12 modem through clockwork to replace the J16, or do I have to use Odin to flash it?
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
yes for both.

[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:
Do I have to rename it to update.zip?
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
no, use clockwork recovery to flash the files......
[Vibrant Android Development] hi2live:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamjason:
Hello all, I am a new member to this forum. I have been lurking/reading/using this forum on my rooted g1. My G1 is rooted with froyo now and I noticed something particular. I have a feeling it is not related tot he froyo but want to ask anyone here who have expereinced having photos that cannot be deleted?

I put some albums from my computer hard drive to my sd card back then and now I noticed that even after transferriing the albums via g1 to another zip drive. I deleted the albums in the sd card. But now it keeps popping back and i used file manager to find it. It cannot find the location and I couldnt find it through advance serach in my laptop via usb connection.

I wonder if anyone ever encounter this problem?? I don't think its in the sd card but in the internal memory. Is there a solution or way to figure this out? Thanks guys.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemonWav:
I've tried everything in the book, my Captivate is one of the phones that will not boot into recovery using any sort if button combo, I have to use ADB. My phone is rooted, lag fix, bloatware removed, sideloading enabled, MobileAP installed, and the Vibrant's GPS files installed, and I'm afraid that someday I'm going to need my phone in recovery/download for Odin3 because I've bricked my phone, but I wont be able too because if my phone's setup. I'm just asking, question of concept, is it possible for someone who knows what they are doing (I have no inexperience) to find the difference between a Captivate w/ the 3 button combo, and one w/o, so that I could manually enable it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solufein:
if you brick your phone, your main worry is how to get into download mode. take battery out, put back in, hold volume down+power while plugging in usb cable. can you at least do that?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemonWav:
As I said, I've tried every trick in the book, it doesn't work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denellum:
go to where you got it, tell them its a samsung problem, they SHOULD replace it. Before you okay the replacement try to boot the phone without the sim to recovery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott2ride:
try turning off. Unplug USB. Then hold down the Vol down button and the power button. Just the 2 of them.

Then insert the USB cable 2-3 seconds after holding those 2 keys down.

That worked for me even though I used to use Vol up and down and power all together.

Hope it works for you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buddy17:
we need a sticky that includes EVERY single way of recovering from all these "bricked" phones. I'm nervous that it will happen to me one day and i won't know what to do. Everyone says there is always a way to unbrick, but there sure are a lot of people that have claimed to try every possible way of entering download mode and still not happen.....and i don't want to get stuck with them!

BTW, did you try plugging your phone into the wall for awhile and then going back to trying usb and download modes?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jngtt:
i also have the same problem with a friends phone. i know the newer ones have issues with the 3 button combo and adb is the only way. i suppose there is a way to remove the block from boot that detects the command, maybe like a different firmware, i remembered that the stock i9000 firmware on the captivate uses only vo down + power to get to download mode but i will not want to risk the phone or it will be bricked.

i know alot of users in this forum are saying read the stickys but until u experience the problem, u will be singing a different tune. there are new captivate owners that cannot get into download mode with the 3 button combo.

i will confirm this and i have 3 other captivates that going into download mode no prolems with 2 possible 3 button combo, just only 1 that doesnot
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Yes, I think someone needs to make a sticky for this. Mine works with 3 buttons, but I have seen many many users now that have 3 button disabled. I'm sure they appreciate all the suggestions, but every single person recommends the regular button methods that just don't work!

I would say, if it were me, I would stop modding it now before you f*** it up and return it to the store. I would also test the new phone in store until you get one that works.

I'm sure someone much smarter than I will figure out a software method for this. I find it hard to believe the when the phone is in Phone--!--computer mode that there is no possible way to force it into download mode via software. I know adb doesn't work, but theres got to be some other developer tool that will work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l7777:
Part of the issue is terminology.

Recovery Mode is what you use to clear cache, clear user data, or install an update.zip file by selecting "Reinstall Packages".

Download Mode is the screen with a yellow triangle and android digger icon and allows you to use odin to flash. This is the important one for recovering from a problem.

Both modes can be entered with ADB. Both modes can be entered with hardware buttons and that's where things get tricky.

On my phone, I can activate recovery mode with the steps below:

Power off

Hold both volume buttons

Press Power

Release power when I see the AT&T splash screen

Release the volume buttons a second or two after releasing power

If I continue to hold all three buttons, the phone simply boot loops at the AT&T screen with a blank flash in between. If I continue to hold the volume buttons after releasing the power button, the phone will boot normally. I have to release them to get into recovery. The phone also has to get past the AT&T splash screen before recovery will load.

I can only enter download mode with the steps below.

Phone off

Remove battery, sim, microsd

Hold volume buttons

Plug in USB

Plug in battery

The phone will then immediately enter download mode.

People need to be very careful when claiming what mode they are in and how they got there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buddy17:
thanks for repeating what millions have already posted.....that doesn't work for a ton of people around here. Luckily, it does work for me, but in the case i get put in the same situation as those guys, i want to know how to get myself out. There are some people that know what they are talking about and still can't get into download mode, and yes, that is including adb reboot download

just because it works for you doesnt mean it works for everyone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
I agree. I want to know just in case that happens to my phone one day. I refuse to think that without the 3 button option your phone can be hard bricked. Worst case some has to figure out a JTAG method.

And from reading a few threads, it looks like the build date is related to 3 button modes being disabled. Many users without 3 button have build dates between 8-11-2010 to 8-14-2010.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l7777:
Not sure if you were responding to me or not, I simply wanted to point out the difference between recovery mode and DL mode as I see plenty of posts where someone is trying to use odin but can't get into "recovery mode". I don't doubt that there are phones that won't work with the hardware buttons.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faspalma:
Welp, count me in as having a brand new Captivate that will not go into Recovery or Download mode. I've tried all the suggestions and stickies, as well. Its like the phone simply ignores button presses while starting up. I bricked my phone while attempting to reverse the lagfix. No idea how I managed that. It now will only boot to the AT&T splash screen... over and over. At least, I'm able to exchange it today as I just brought it home yesterday. I'm going to try boot into recovery before I leave the store with the replacement. Although, my fear is the "bad batch" from manufacturing is actually the new "anti-xda haxor" safe guard from Samsung.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pokedoke:
I was in the same boat as you...both phones so far won't go into recovery or dl unless adb'ed... have had the same fear as you. However... sister's captivate goes into dl mode just fine. Got them both at the same time...

Let's hope there's some workaround for this somewhere down the road.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Those of you that are missing 3 button recovery and download mode, if your phone is working do this,

go to the phone keypad, dial *#*#197328640#*#* from there it will pull the service menu, go to Version Info, SW Version, READ ALL SW VERSION

Look at the line labeled RF CAL DATE.

Mine for example is, RF CAL DATE 07-11-2010 and my buttons work.

It looks like phones with an RF CAL DATE between 8-11-2010 and 8-14-2010 have the button problems. I just want to find as much data as I can to verify or not-verify this.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xtremekilla09:
Mine says 8-18-2010. Still no buttons working.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Interesting. That means so far, the earliest i have seen is 8-11-2010 and yours is the latest. Looks like that was a bad week at the Cappy factory.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemonWav:
This is what I was talking about. I was in the middle of Odin3, going back to stock so I could take it back and do the "manufacturer defect" thing to get a new one, and out of no where, I didn't touch anything, nothing was unplugged, but my phone's screen went black, and it rebooted itself to the "phone+!+computer" screen. Anyone wanna give me some tips to maybe get them to replace my phone without looking at it, for the same "manufacturer defect" reason?

Oh, and by the way, my phone is one of the unlucky ones. So I can't boot into download mode. Period.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianwood:
Agreed, we should have one established method for download and one for recovery. We need to put an end to people suggesting various combinations that have already been tried all over the place and shown not to work on the crippled phones. We need to find a different way into download mode or we figure out how to enable the three button download. It seems more and more of the newer devices are turning up without the ability to three finger salute. It's not going to go away on its own.

So does anyone know how to access the BIOS or boot ROM or whatever it is that controls the three button sequence? We should diff a working one with one that doesn't.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemonWav:
Thank you, this is the exact reason why I started this thread. I don't want a bunch of random button combos being thrown around because we all know those don't work, I want a positive, complete solution to this problem, if it can be found.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TMC_Sherpa:
Did someone say diff :D

The first thought that came to my mind is Samsung released new code on Sep 6th where they added

NEW I897 ./linux-2.6.29/drivers/input/keyboard/VTW0014_R00_V14_bin.c

NEW I897 ./linux-2.6.29/drivers/input/keyboard/VTW0014_R00_V12_bin.c

NEW I897 ./linux-2.6.29/drivers/input/keyboard/VTW0014_R00_V08_bin.c

NEW I897 ./linux-2.6.29/drivers/input/keyboard/VTW0014_R00_V10_bin.c

NEW I897 ./linux-2.6.29/drivers/input/keyboard/VTW0014_R00_V15_bin.c

to the boring old VTW0008 files we already had.

The only way I can think to check this is if someone who has a phone with this problem tries the odin one-click restore which should be the old version still. Whats the worst that could happen....

Just as recap.

RF CAL DATE between 08-11-2010 and 08-20-2010 have 3 button either disabled or hardware defect. Either way it doesn't work. I have not seen any dates before 8-11, and every day someone adds a new end date.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
over in the i9000 forums, they've had a very detailed discussion about their phones without 3 button recovery. from what they've seen, none of the firmware revisions add or remove the ability to use their recovery/download modes. I believe it's stored in one of the bml partitions/files, and the phones without the three button combo seem to have this file report straight FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF in hexadecimal.

they compared this file from many phones (ones that do and don't support 3 button) and for the most part, the ones that don't support it appear as above, the ones that do look different and are different for each region. it's different between a phone bought in europe and one bought in africa.

I think one or two people attempted to flash/replace their bml with one from a phone that supported it and... well... I don't remember what came of that, it might be worth it to check and read through their thread to find out. of course, last time I checked that thread was ages ago, so my information might be outdated

edit: should also add Samsung has claimed it was a bad batch of phones (I assume they literally just forgot to flash this bml somehow). even odin doesn't touch this bml, download and recovery are stored in Sbl.bin (secondary boot loader), but the button controls are in an area that has so far not been touched even through reflashing. you can probably call Samsung and get the phone replaced if your phone doesn't support it since they admit it's their mistake

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faspalma:
Just an update from me: My first phone had the RF CAL DATE of 2010.8.15. I bricked it yesterday morning during some lagfix testing. Since I couldn't get into recovery or DL mode, I returned it but went to a different store in hopes they had an older batch of phones. My new phone has an RF Cal of 2010.7.29 and indeed can be entered into Recovery via three button combos.

So, it might be worth checking other locations for older build dates if anyone is considering a swap. I can tell you the new phone is stupid easy to boot into recovery and the old phone really was impossible. Just my 2 cents. ;)
