Just for the hell of it. What's wrong with a new guy who realizes he has an issue that he would like resolved. Yes he did several things the wrong way.

1. Saw eye candy and wanted it (valuable lesson being eye candy is not always what you want.

2. Not educating yourself and Do it your damn self.

3. Coming to these forum asking for help without being prepared to be flamed (most xda seniors are hot headed)

4. If you can't do it yourself then you prob shouldn't have root

Assuming you can figure out what to do, there is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7534187#post7534187 which is a ROM that's based off the stock variety. Can't speak for bloat (didn't like stock rom) but it may work for you.

As for flashing, I am not 100% sure what state your recovery is so no idea if you can realistically flash a ROM, but it's worth a shot.

Also, on the Android Market, there's the ROM Manager, which may help (or hinder) the situation...

I am using dinc 2.2 skyraider 3.1 wig Hydra oc kernel and was wonodering if there was any way to get rotating homescreen without using a launcher app such as open home. This could be like a Rom addon or something similar. If you know a way please post how global download and install(such as if wipe was needed).

P.s. it should look like MOTO Droid homescreen when keyboard is out.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadoslayer:
Hey folks, heres a synopsis of what I did:

1) Stock Bell Vibrant, rooted.

2) Installed Clockwork, installed, backed up.

3) Tried to install voodoo for vibrant.

Then during reboot, it sat at the "Vibrant" screen for well over two hours before I gave up on it.

Pulling battery and rebooting always ends up on "Vibrant" screen.

I booted into clockwork recovery, and recovered my backup using nandboot. It runs the process for a while then outputs:

ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.4

Checking MD5 sums...

Restoring system...

Restoring data...

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

(File Exists)

Can't mount /data/!

If I reboot, I'm stuck at the same "Vibrant" screen.

I've been searching the forums, and the only solution I can find is to re-flash, but I can't find a stock bell rom for the galaxy s... I was under the impression clockwork backed up my original rom.

Anyway, any help you can provide would be great!

Thanks

You need to learn how to use Odin if you are going to mod your phone with beta software.

You can use Odin to reflash your device to stock. From there you can start over or skip it. Since you had problems with Voodoo make sure you follow the instructions with the addition of checking the "repartition" box.

Check this thread for instructions on Odin: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=748074&highlight=ODIN

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relikk356:
I've not installed Voodoo yet, but I read through the thread yesterday and If i remember correctly when Voodoo BETA creates it's EXT4 partition it was actually formating the internal SD card. Deleting most of the data, which would include backups. It seems as though people were using Eugine's 2.2 Froyo Rom then going back to there original nanbackup by moving over a backup that they were smart enough to store on their pc. This is all verbatim, and straight from memory. Start at page three and read on if you havn't yet. I hope this helps.

I love xda and everyone on it!

When I was waiting for a reply I found samsungfirmwareworld and grabbed I9000UGJH2 which was the latest Bell firmware, and I also found the 512.pit.

Following the instructions on that Odin instructions link got me back to stock, and avoided any major medical problems (like heart attack, stress induced coma, etc.).

Thanks so much!! :)

Now that I'm back to stock firmware, is it ok to re-root, install clockwork, and restore my backup I made pre-voodoo? I did copy the entire clockwork folder from the phone to my PC.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0niqu3:
You do know that the Bell Vibrant is an sgs i9000 and NOT the same as the t959 vibrant for t-mobile that this forum is solely for/about, right?

And yes, you should be perfectly safe to restore your clockwork folder and do a nandroid restore.

Cheers,

=)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadoslayer:
Yeah, I figured that out over the course of this whole process. I guess just because they share the "Vibrant" name, doesn't mean they're the same. Given the large number of Bell users here, I'm surprised we don't have our own forum for the i9000m. Would it be more appropriate to post in the i9000 forums, even though the Bell phones (from what I understand and firmware wise) are far from their European counterparts?

Either way, for having these problems and potentially posting in the wrong forum, you folks have been great :)

@shadoslayer... i'm not really sure but i think the only diff between the bell vibrant ang the international i9000 is the hspa bands since bell vibrant has north america hspa.

btw, i'm using a bell phone too, on JM7 firnware.

Does anyone know of an app that I can use to easily toggle a gmail filter on and off? I get some automated emails that I need to monitor. But I don't need to monitor all the time. So I'd like a way to turn on a gmail filter automatically mark them as read so I won't get notified about them.

does that make sense? I've looked at using tasker but it seems to only support k-9. Also looked at this webservice called syphir but it only seems to work on a set time schedule and I'd like to be able to toggle it on the fly since the time I need to monitor the the emails isn't on a firm schedule.

This is interesting... maybe look for a hosted web "macro" thing... something that can execute a recorded "script" by clicking a link?

It'd be an interesting project... the most complex thing would be actually recording the web session, then you could use a RESTful API to call the script to toggle, send a value, or just get status of attribute.

Good idea... now... hmmm... maybe use rent-a-coder.com and get some folks to write it for cheap :P

What operating system do you use on your computer? If you're using Linux (and I suppose Mac might do the same thing) to manage your photos be sure to empty the trash, or delete the .trash folder on whichever of the phone's drives you're using to store photos.

If you are using one of those OSs I they place a copy of deleted files in .trash, and the Galaxy (or any android phone) will read those files.

If you aren't using Linux or Mac then I have no useful suggestions.

I also have the same question after reading everything. First article only mentions AXI in passing.

The second... (1st, lmgtfy is only appropriate when the person knows the right terms, if you just search for xda axi, you get nothing, so adding the word scalling[sic] and implying that someone should have executed that query is more than a little dickish, 2nd, learn to spell) ...seems to refer to it as a bus speed, so I still don't get how you can have or not have a bus speed...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] billybag:
*Note i have not experienced whether the product lives up to its name or not. I only JUST placed it on my device. This is simply my first impression.

**I included pictures of my device compared to the back parts of the adhesive so you can fully grasp the wonderful "custom to fit" experience.

I just now got as close to perfection as i think i am going to get with placing my "custom to fit" screen protector onto my device. At very first glance i saw that their were going to be some slight imperfections. The random circle on the top right of the adhesive was a dead giveaway. The cut out they have for the top speaker and the bottom row of buttons is hardly CLOSE to the size it should be. It is much too big. I am not sure if it is clear enough in the pictures but their is excess adhesive on the sides. I figured they may be meant to fold down to protect a minuscule amount of siding. At first i could not get it to stick on the sides. But after giving it a few minutes to settle and let the application spray* dry, it seems to be holding. However, the border has really ugly bubbles from the very tony inlay of the front of the phone. The instructions say that MICRObubbles will disappear in their own after a couple days... i hardly find these MICRObubbles though. We will see. I think it is almost supposed to have a "melting" effect on the device. Like heated plastic sort of taking the proper shape over the device.

Now we move onto the back. You will see that i have been given 3 holes instead of 2. (2 being the camera lens and the button underneath). I have no idea what the third was meant for.... I can also forget about taking the backing off of my device as it is now sealed shut with the plastic invisible shield. This doesn't bother me that much since i rarely ever have to take the back out but i know their will be a day where i will need to.

All-in-all the product LOOKS promising still. The bottom line here that i would like to make is that i have NO idea what TouchPro2 they are basing this off of. but it is far from mine. Too far. I need to check but i am also fairly certain they ask for your provider too (in case the device is different than others)

I am also still wondering about the excess sides. it is very random in the back but they make no mention of needing to trim the shield.

*They give you a spray that you use on your fingertips and the adhesive so that a. you dont give it fingerprint smudges and b. it doesnt fully stick right away so that you can "slide" it into place. I found that "sliding" it around was impossible because it still stuck but it did not stick enough to the point i was unable to retry.

I really hope this means something to somebody. Had i read something like this before hand, i may have thought longer on buying the product. I will be sure to write more in the next few days. By the feel of the material on my phone, it seems like it could work really well.

I would also love to know other people's experience with this product and even maybe correct me if anything i complained about was just due to stupidity.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] redpoint73:
It very much looks like you bought Invisible Shield for the wrong Touch Pro 2 model.

It looks like you have the one for the unlocked/unbranded model:

http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-touch-pro-2-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php

When in fact you want the T-Mobile model.

http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-touch-pro-2-t-mobile-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php

It looks like the shape of your T-Mob branded TP2 is actually quite different from the unbranded version. The shape of the shield is therefore quite different between the models, based on the pictures on the Zagg website. Also, the layout of the battery cover is totally different, which is why the cutouts on the shield don't match your battery cover. This also accounts for the 3rd small hole on this piece. In addition to the camera lens and speakerphone button, the unbranded TP2 has small holes for the speaker just below the speakerphone button, and that is what the 3rd hole in the shield is for. I'm guessing on the T-Mob version, the speaker hole is located as part of the larger cutout/hole.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] buru898:
Not to be mean but it's really obvious that it wasn't made for a T-Mobile Touch Pro2 and you should have known that it wasn't the right one.

Just going to the Touch Pro2 forums you can see that there's different versions of the device and ours is usually always referred as the "T-Mobile Touch Pro2" when being specific.

The cover does seem worth buying though.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] billybag:
Yeah i just inquired about it. I did buy the T-Mobile one and they just sent the wrong one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] cbeck:
Oddly, the Tilt2 had little holes in the back case in the same spot, despite the fact that it is just the battery sitting behind the holes.

[Hero CDMA General] appcoder:
I'm tagged with verification that our app works on gsm/cdm across as many android versions in the wild that we can find. Right now (to avoid having seventy zillion phones on my desk) I'd like to have a bunch of older roms for the htc hero cdma (I've got a 2.1 that it came with, rooted it, installed the vanilla port of the cynaogen mods for 2.2, and can swap back and forth ok.)

Where would I go to find a 1.5 and 1.6 for the htc hero cdma.

Off topic, but in a similar vein, I have a nexus one (for the gsm side) and would want to hunt down roms for 1.5, 1.6 and 2.1.

Mostly I'm looking to catch things like the dynamic loader change between 1.5 and somewhere in 1.6 (we have some native libs, and even if they conditionally pull in 2.1 symbols, the old linker won't load them because it doesn't know about the symbols that aren't going to be pulled in) the changes to the telephony classes (increased reporting) and the location listener (with the new "passive" provider in 2.2) and changes to the battery state listener (battery ok, and charger start/stop) and make sure our stuff works with whatever it can find (even fun stuff like the newly undocumented "logcat -b system" in 2.2 which now steals some of the messages that used to go to "logcat -b main".)

I try to catch what I can in the emulator, but it's not so good for telephony or detailed gps stuff (and the 2.2 emulator doesn't reflect the undocumented logcat change.)

I may be root but I had a problem and had to redo this step... my sdcard was not being recognized. After reflashing/ updating I was able to access it again.

Now this rename the zip file step... I'm thinking if I rename it the code I'm supposed to enter isn't going to work. What should I rename it to?

How should I enter this code? first off my sd card isn't called sdcard it's called an 8 digit number.
