[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corrective:
Hi,

I recently purchased a Galaxy S, but I can't seem to connect to Kies. I've looked into the problem and found this thread.

"[Drivers] MS Windows x86 and x64 USB Drivers for Samsung Galaxy S" by |OP|

Tried updating using both files, but it keeps saying that my existing drivers are already more up to date.

I've also seen some stuff about reinstalling Windows Media Player 11, but I'm a bit leery about doing that.

I'm running Windows 7 64bit. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I'm having the same problem. MTS drivers always fail to install. This is really frustrating. I've searched all over the web for an answer but nothing seems to work.

There are several threads on this subject already. starting a new thread will not bring new info. use the search button and read through the threads. you will probably learn about a bunch of other things while you are at it. When I couldn't connect that's how I found a solution.

I flashed the new hd2 rom from tmobile a few months after they released the device and I don't recall going through the hardspl process when I flashed the new rom. Do I need to do the hardspl before I flash a custom rom?

By the way it has HardSpl 2.10 on it from T-MO I guess

I have the T-Mo USA Version

RomVersion: 2.13.531.1 WWE

Radio Version: 2.10.50.26

I want to flash to a custom rom. So do I have to SPL first? or no since I did the USA T-MO HTC HD2 Update in like March(Hardspl 2.10 already on phone?)?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
yes

no, its was spl 2.10.0000, hard spl is hacked spl, and will never ship from tmo with hard spl on .

Use hspl3, change the dropdown to 2.08.hspl and you are good to go

I have this softbank X02HT and unlock code but I need to reload the phone OS also known as ROM. Please help where to download ROM updates.
[HTC Cavalier] gutek85:
Try HardReset first. I didn't find any shipped softbank ROM (I think), but for Cavalier ROM you can look HERE
[HTC Cavalier] bacdeph:
Thanks gutek85,

Please advise how to do "hardreset".
[HTC Cavalier] gutek85:
I don't have any Cavalier, but I think, that it's the same method as for another smartphone.

Turn off the phone. Then press and hold Left and Right softkeys and press Power button for less than one second. It should shows a question "Do you want to..." (or somethink like that...). Then press "0"

Hi!

I have tried a lot of different compilation of Android builds/roms for the HD2 and i allways get the same problem.

First upstart after transfering the files to my SD-card works great, i reboot the device and the i get the message Rootfs file is missing and the boot stops.

I can se the file and all looks ok.

I tried to copy the rootfs file again but still same error.

I have to delete all files in the sd-card and copy them again to solve it but i still can only use it once, after reboot the files is damaged again.

I have tried different SD cards and different builds/roms.

I have a swedish HTC HD2

OS: 5.2.21869 (Swedish)

Manilla: 2.5.19211619.0

ROM: 1.66.413.2 (76641) SWE

hi mate a used to get this all the time aswell, don't extract all the files straight to the root of the sd card, read the start up text it tells you where you need to keep the files in, ie it'll tell you that the it should be in the root of the sd card in folder called android, or what ever it says, read the start up text in the android build m8 its tells you in there, a bet its unable to load roofs, missing etc,
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whynot66:
what kind of sd

Put your SD in your pc do a full format (not quick) and us 32 cluster size)

download bangsters newbuild extract on pc and place Android folder on SD,

Is recommend you do a full task 29 and chuckydroid Rom, and you might as well flash the 2.12 radio,

Then in chuckydroid go to I think its epl in the home menu select autoboot for Android and restart phone the wait :-)

You need to remove or rename folder 'Android' and try to boot Android again

but when I put all files in folder 'Android' (haret.exe, clrcad.exe, etc,... in /Android/)

I don't have rootfs-missing problem ever again when reboot

you will have to perform task 29 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=540290)

then re-flash a rom.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
Your diamond hasn't got hardspl so the only thing i can think of is finding the HTC stockrom for your device and try to flash with normal rom update utility (that comes with the rom).

You can find your stockrom over here or visit the official htc support site.

Put device in bootloader mode and connect to PC, wait till 'serial' on screen changes in 'usb' and run RUU.

Hope it works out for you!

[Desire General] green_archer:
Hi All,

I just wanted to share this info from personal experience. I am using HTC Desire (AMOLED/ASIA Region). I updated OTA Froyo then decided i wanted to root my phone. Rooting requires 0.80 HBOOT so i need to downgrade mine from 0.93 since it got updated also during OTA update. I used teppic's tool (thanks very much for the help as well!) to downgrade my HBOOT from 0.93 to 0.83. Afterwards, i installed signed_RUU for Asia region and now my phone is back to HBOOT 0.80.:)

This is very helpful especially to those who wanted to bring their phones back to HTC for any repair/warranty concerns.

Hope this can help all my fellow noobs out there as it did to me! Now i think i can try rooting my phone!:D
[Desire General] Lazy-eye:
thnx for your topic! found via Google and i really helped me!

i need my desire back to stock so i can send him in for reparation. Tried different RUU's but they all failed because the newest bootloader (0.93) this tool worked for me!
[Desire General] pinoy85:
It worked for me. Salamat po kababayan :)
[Desire General] nasty2857068:
Well it works for me till i downgraded my hboot to 0.83 can u elaborate as to which ruu u installed from the asia region as i tried and it didnt downgrade my hboot :(

Yes, it's worked perfectly.

Thanks so much (also to teppic74).

Here video from app I'm developing:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxD65fDYSGw

Idea is simple - change LCD density without modifying build.prop and almost on the fly.

Application will change LCD density in system, changes will not survive reboot (so if you have wrong settings, pull out battery or restart device and you are back to old settings). For now best way to change density is to reload Android software stack (it will seems like crash but it's intended to be this way).

Now available from Play
[Android Apps and Games] Salku:
Looks Very Nice Going to test it out on my Rooted Cliq (2.1) Tell you how it goes

Edit: It works fine on my phone w/o issues detected
[Android Apps and Games] raven_raven:
Sweet! Downloading and trying ASAP!

From what I've seen on video, you're not having so called "Compatibility mode" to resize apps to new density, am I right? It would be a sweet feature.

So, I see there is rival to "LCD Density Changer" :}.
[Android Apps and Games] ex87:
It was quick and dirty test :) Released test version auto scale should work.

About "LCD Density Changer" - both programs differ in a way how changes are preserved. My program does not write anything on /system, so it's better for those who wants "high res" effect to be available quickly but not all the time (or those who use "LCD Density Changer" and wants to play some games that's not compatible with high resolutions :) ). "LCD Density Changer" saves edits to /system partition - for long term use.
[Android Apps and Games] raven_raven:
I know I know, but you must admit - effect is pretty the same :). It is not definitive in one case, which has its pros and cons.

Regardless how cool idea is, I have a problem with app - I installed it, opened it, choosed one option and... nothing. Tried it on 1.6 (official Donut for my country, rooted + busybox) and for Froyo (CM6), same issue :(.
[Android Apps and Games] ex87:
Please try with newest package.
[Android Apps and Games] raven_raven:
Honestly, no need for it now :). App had some hard times asking for superuser permission, but when it did, everything just works! Great app. Still some features like returning to default density and compatibility mode are good to have ;).

Thanks a bunch, great piece of code!

Tried on Nexus One.

120 rebooted but didn't do anything.

Total fail on my Vibrant. Selected 200 (the recommended setting for Galaxy S/Vibrant), and the screen simply went blank, phone froze completely requiring battery pull.

At least it didn't change anything permanently, so I guess it's safe. But it doesn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] blackalice:
Lots of good reports from the T-Mobile Pulse community, works perfectly!
[Android Apps and Games] theonlyrick:
Thanks dev!

Like the app, works well on my Note 3.

**Feature request** Is there any we can have a widget that sets phone to a pre-described density (with auto restart)? That way a safe setting can be found and which then easily be applied after a phone reboot.

Also, interesting bug - If I set density to 361, all is OK. If I set it to 360, Google Music loses access to cached music. (I don't know if it's related, but at 360, it also displays 3 albums to a column, instead of 2.)

Cheers for a great app, Richard

this app is awesome. Got it working on the LG G3 out of the box. Below 530 DPI stock apps don't play nice (e.g. force close). Otherwise 531 DPI (as opposed to 640 DPI) it looks great.
[Android Apps and Games] esox81:
Also forced close on HTC M8 with rooted stock

Same problem.
[Android Apps and Games] Bence:
O my Samsung S4 it works well with applications, but the home screen is just smaller in the middle of the screen and not "fit to screen". Same goes with application tab.

And if I select 240 it crashes after restart, it only works on 360.

And shuting down the device and starting it up again makes everything back to default 480.

[Android Apps and Games] RossLH:
Seems to like sending my Droid (UD8) into a boot loop at higher densities. Right now I'm testing where that threshold is.

EDIT: 280 and 300 cause a boot loop. Checking lower numbers now....

EDIT 2: 120 to 260 run fine, but anything below 240 comes with various screen fitment issues. For instance, the lock screen slider doesn't extend all the way to the right of the screen, the dock is shifted to the left and sometimes missing buttons, and fonts start to get a little weird in the launcher. This is all in portrait, I'll give landscape a shot in a little while.
[Android Apps and Games] tmobilewinguser:
im so sorry it appears that the newest version of LCD Density Changer Lite does work for me i was using an older copy that could have been why i couldn't get it to work previously as far as being able to check and see if it sticks i wouldn't be able to let you know till i buy the full versions sorry again.

Mostly OK on D2

So I just loaded this app of the market on my Droid 2. Settings >= 180 work flawlessly. Lower settings seem to cause scaling issues with various apps, the most obvious being the status bar (or whatever its called at the top of the screen). I'm going to leave it at 180 to see how it goes.

Thanks!

Tried it before (and posted), and it didn't seem to work. I thought I'd try it again, and it works now on my Vibrant.

However, I think part of the problem people are having is they don't wait long enough. On my Vibrant the screen goes blank for a LONG TIME before it comes back up. Apparently it does a restart of a lot of essential services that takes quite a while. It is like the phone rebooted, but not fully. If your screen goes black, sit the phone down and wait for a while, it should come back eventually at the new DPI.
