ClockworkMOod BU of 2.2B6-> Problems

Wasn't sure if this should go in ClockworkMOD, 2.1 Kernal, or this thread. Given I"m on 2.2b6, going here.

I was going to create a RomMgr BU of this 2.2 so that if/when I want to go back to it after my trip this week, I could do so.

So, I applied the 2.1 Kernal as I did yesterday when I moved it back to 2.16 (was an exercise in reinstalling 2.2 from 2.1 again). But today, when it reboots, it reboots back to recovery. Selecting reboot just reboots back to recovery again.

So I tried selecting apply the Update.zip. It booted back to Rom Manager menu. I can't seem to get any further.

Any suggestions?

[EDIT]

I did just try navigating within the Clockwork menu to the ClockworkMod Recovery.zip file in the Clockworkmod directory and applied it, and I get the same results.

[EDIT 2]

Well, fortunately, I had the 2.16 BU on the card. So I gave up and selected it and restore, and I'm back up and running. I don't know...maybe the whole purpose of applying that 2.1 kernel was merely to get into a mode to do a Clockwork recovery, and it wasn't expected to boot to the OS. No?

Lol I prefer to use my phone not let it sit for hours without touching it. Standby battery life is good but when you actually use the phone the battery drops pretty quickly.

Voice Actions does not currently support Bluetooth dialing.

And don't get your hopes up for built-in bluetooth dialing in Froyo...at least not under AT&T.

AT$T wants to push their paid voice dialing service ($$$) and will most likely remove any built-in bluetooth voice dialing solution.

A third party option is Choice Dialer Plus which is supposed to support bluetooth dialing but I have not been able to get it to recognize anything I say via my bluetooth headset (Jawbone).

If anyone has found another bluetooth dialing solution (that works), I would be extremely interested in hearing about it.

I could never get Google Voicemail to pickup. The caller always ends up either with home vmail, or cell vmail. Google never picks it up.

If they are I can't find the right ones, I've messed with it for ages. I've spent literally hours researching and changing settings to no avail. The call always ends up getting picked up by one of the phones before google does.

I was about to flash back to 2.1 before uninstalling twlauncher. Much snappier after the uninstall. Wont be flashing back just yet.

If another voice mail service is set to pick up first then they will get it. Also, make sure that your phone is pointed to use GV as it's voice mail.

If someone calls me directly they will get my GV voice mail. However, if they call my GV number and it's set to forward to not only my phone, but also my wife's, then her voice mail will end up picking up the voice mail because her phone isn't set to use GV for voice mail.

So do you just uninstall the TwLauncher 2.1update 1 to get rid of the touchwiz launcher?
[Captivate Android Development] ranjo65:
Are you already on Beta6? If so, you can uninstall with TiBu, or go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications>All and scroll down to TW Launcher and click uninstall. Make sure you are running either ADW or LP before you do it, though.
[Captivate Android Development] tysj:
I'm actually on 2.1.6/7, sorry I forgot to mention. Was wondering if it was possible on 2.1.

I'm on BETA5.5

When I bring up the dial pad to make a call I see the regular dial pad with the numbers and letters assigned to each keypad.

When I'm successfully connected to a call and I bring up the keypad the it's a different keypad and the letters are gone. I can't search any name directories during a call.

On a side note guys, for those who are familiar with the Otterbox cases, they finally made one for the Captivate. It hasn't been released yet, but there are several nice screenshots on their web site.

I would imagine that of it becomes available that the DEVS here will be able to bypass AT&T's mucking it up. I too look forward to this capability.

Just for the sake of reporting, since this is technically a "beta"- I'm getting random shutdowns too. Cog Beta6.
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
For those with random shutdowns did you start fresh or upgrade?

I have been running it for a few days now and haven't had any issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
I guess you're right. I just figured if people can babble on endlessy about lagfix, I could at least post some useful information.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
I think you're talking about changing to the supl.google thing. I'll give that a try. At this point, I'll try anything.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
DG are you going to try to implement HSUPA on Beta 7? I added it to beta 6 because another user said it worked for him on 5.5 but I started getting FCs a few seconds after booting then a black screen and had to pull the battery off to boot back. Hope it is just my config lol
[Captivate Android Development] claudeswares:
I master mastered cleared, ODIN to JH6, ODIN to BETA6, and then master cleared again. It is odd that only some people are are getting random shutdowns. I am using 2.1.7 until the issue gets resolved, but I miss froyo already.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
I'm beginning to wonder if some of these issues are device specific. Many of you are running the same configurations, but are having very different issues.
[Captivate Android Development] ragingclue:
I was under the impression that random shutdowns were specific to the device, not the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] bwolmarans:
I'll add to this thread if I have any (significant) issues.

I'm a "clean case" meaning I did it from clean meaning I did in order the following steps:

* factory reset

* odin master clear

* odin to stock

* rom mananger to beta6
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I have not experienced any shut Downs while in use but I keep having period boot loops while things start up. Everytime I think I have figured it out and eliminated the issue they start up again. Not a huge issue but it makes my phone take forever to restart. And my media scanner in general.is much slower.

[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Did you restore your apps and data with TIBU? This could cause a fubar. Some of the apps and data if reinstalled on 2.2 that ran on 2.1 would cause corruption. Reflash 2.2 and only restore apps, no data or settings, you should not experience bootloop.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdrjrh:
so i use my phone as a wireless card for my desktop computer by usb tethering the phones wifi in cm6. however when the phones screen turns off my internet speeds on my computer drop to near 0. i still get internet connection on the desktop... but it is super slow. soo my question is: other than leaving the phone screen on at all times, is there any way i can make this work? (ie: get good wifi speeds with the phones screen off) is it as wifi sleep policy setting? anyone else experience this?
[Epic 4G General] 1NfE5T:
I just got a win 7 x64 ultimate install disk. Now it won't even see my phone....I downloaded the correct drivers ad still nothing. I was on win 7 x32 ultimate and installed the 32 bit drivers and all went well. Now I'm on x64 bit version and with x64 drivers it ain't find my device!!!! I'm at a loss here.
[Epic 4G General] a_ride_4_ever:
did you get it resolved, I had the same issue. I then move to the rear usb port, you need to look for the safley remove media icon on the task bar. It should be there. when you plug the phone in the epic should show up. If not goto disk manager in windows and make sure that the drive letter that the epic is trying to use isnt already in use, i fit is change it.

The other thing is to make sure on the phone that you have selected the correct method, IE charging etc In my case the phone would show up as raw format yet it would show up fine on another PC. all i can think of is that it was something buggy with the USB.
[Epic 4G General] RRexA3:
Try a different USB port and if that doesn't work try a different cable.

If it still doesn't work try removing the drivers for the device manually, reboot the system and reconnect the device. It should automatically discover the drivers for you running Windows 7.

Also when you connect the phone to the system does the menu pop up asking you how you would like the phone to respond to the connection (IE. Mass Storage, Phone as Modem and whatever the 3rd option is)?
[Epic 4G General] rufflez2010:
I've never gotten those options ever. Nothing pops up on my phone. I thought it was weird since I've heard about them, but never seen it, mac or pc. Any way this is connected to usb debugging being on?

Edit: yup, menu came up when I turned USB debugging off.
[Epic 4G General] RRexA3:
Glad the menu came up! The question is did the computer pick up the device?
[Epic 4G General] 1NfE5T:
Nope not even with the correct samsung epic win 64bit drivers. I couldn't for the life of me get then to see my phone. Reinstalled win 7 ultimate 32bit. Saw it right when hooked up! So I guess ill stay with my x32 edition :-(
[Epic 4G General] RRexA3:
You probably just got some drivers crossed. Manually removing the drivers should have fixed it versus reimaging the system =/
[Epic 4G General] 1NfE5T:
Thought this too...but I found 3 diffrent set of epic 6 bit drivers and no go...I'm up and running now. So ima stick with x32bit for now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
I have a Samsung Captivate and was able to sim unlock nd then root everything was running great, but because i wanted to change the rom and get rid of the AT&T bloatware I decided to install SRE rom from this site but first i had to install rom manager from the market, & install Clockwork Mod which i did so far so good. I go ahead watch the video follow it step by step except i didn't wipe data then install rom. So i decided to kinda start over i booted into recovery wiped data then attempted to install SRE rom again and that's when all hell broke loose phone freezing up on the home screen, not completing its boot process, rebooting by itself, i tried removing Sim card, Microsd, but still not allowing me to reboot into recovery with the key combo or ne other way for that matter. I then tried odin one click to reinstall factory everything but no luck. Sorry for the long story just trying to put it all out there. O yeah i'm a newb incase you couldn't tell. I don't have insurance to try to return to at&t. Thank you in advance for any and all help you may provide.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
try getting your phone into download mode. If you can do that then use odin to flash everything to stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrrrramos:
Are you able to get adb to access the phone? You can access recovery from there with the following command:

adb reboot recovery

Also, are you getting into download mode when trying Odin 1-click? I've found a pretty fool-proof method pull battery/SIM/SD, putting the battery in, holding down the two volume buttons and then plugging in the USB. Works every time for me, and is easier than it sounds.

I was stuck on a boot loop the other night and that process got me into download mode so I could flash with Odin and then restore my backup.

Worst comes to worst, just bring it to AT&T and say it randomly did that. If it's only two days old, and you're under contract (didn't buy it outright) you don't need insurance. I don't even think insurance is available for this phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magnumrt562:
take out the battery, plug in the usb, put the battery back in, hold both volume buttons down, then hold the power button down... the grey/green battery icon will flash to a black screen, as soon as it flashes to the black screen the second time, let the power button go, and download mode should be there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
@rrrrrramos i do not have a contract with them. I obtained this phone through a friend that does have insurance for the handset. Since my computer does not recognize it i am not able to adb.

@magnumrt62 & rrrrramos I have tried these button, usb combos and nothing. I appreciate all the responses i will con't to try and seek psychiatric help...lol.

How would i know i am in dl mode? All it does when i let go of the power button after the second blk screen is nothing but show green battery nd con't to charge then goes to black screen. Computer doesn't recognize it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
Are you using the SRE with voodoo in it, if so that is not playing nice with ROM Manager, it is a known issue that Clockwork Mod dosen't recognize ext4. Sounds like that may be the issue. read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=784170

It sound like that is the problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
I am unable to mount/unmount the internal/external sd cards because the phone freezes and does not allow for this. The few times i was able to get odin to recognize phone com3 i hit masterclear left it alone and 6hrs later it had done nothing. I can't even get into recovery mode. I am about to see if this beautiful phone will fly then bounce... O how a grown man wants to cry over his phone... LMAO...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparker366:
To do master clear your have to be in usb debug mode and at the home screen. Fire up odin then plug the phone in odin will see the phone and then hit master clear. It will then wipe the phone
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
Thats where the phone freezes up at on the home screen and just stays stuck there. The last time I was able to get into the phone i switched on usb debugging but still nothing. I just booted up the phone and heard the sweet bing sound but still doesn't show up.. I really appreciate every1 taking time out to try to help me.. Just wanted to put that out there..

So am i one of the unfortunate souls to have "BRICKED" his phone. I will not give up yet.. As long as i see the sweet "S" i will not give up..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
I don't think you bricked it. Something is going on with your drivers, if the computer won't recognize it. Obviously your phone has been able to boot into recovery before if you had ClockworkMod on it. Did you get into Recovery using the key combo?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
I have not been able to get into recovery using any key combo. Right know i am actually in Android System Recovery by using adb reboot recovery and a lil luck and speed. It is recognized by odin3 0:[com3] but it will not do any thing. I clicked master clear and it states master clear started but that was 53 minutes ago.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazman171:
You need to use the odin from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989 as it is made to specifically use with the captivate. It also includes the jf6 kernael which is critical. I used method 3 for the I-9000 because SRE 1.3 put that kernel on the phone and screwed it up big time, it has different hardware assignments. When you put the battery in, hold volume up and down and plug in the usb, no sim, no external sd when doing this. No other version of odin worded for me, just this one. You can't do a master clear until you are fully booted, I don't care what anyone says, it will never work, besides, you don't need to. You need to hit the "Start" button in odin when it show that you're connected. It will reflash you phone with the proper rom and kernel.

Don't download anything else from there but the odin file, you have the drivers already and don't need the other kernels (what got you here to begin with ;) ). just that version of odin that already has what you need.

Good luck man! :cool:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
It's great that you can get into recovery mode through adb because that means you can get into download mode: adb reboot download. Then you can flash back to stock with odin.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
Also forget about recovery. That's not going to help you right now. You need to be in download mode to use Odin
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
I'm going to give that a shot when i get home. Why didn't I think about adb reboot download wow guess you can tell i'm a real NEWB.. Thanks i'll let u know how it works out for me..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparker366:
What is it that you don't understand. Master clear only works when you are at the home screen. You can't evoke it from download mode or recovery. You have to have your phone recognized by odin when you are at your home screen and then you can hit master clear. That is the only way that it will work.

It sounds like adb works so when you are at the home screen and you envoke adb reboot recovery it reboots the phone into recovery correct. If that is working then there should be no reason master clear won't work then. Boot the phone up normally and then run odin 1 click then plug the phone in if odin recognizes the phone then hit master clear and see what it does. It should work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] one_cam_vtec:
@ Everyone who suggested things for me to try THANK YOU. I finally got it with the adb reboot download. Didn't know i could do that. @Sparker366 I would envoke adb b4 it got to the home screen as soon as odin recognized it i would envoke commands, because the phone would freeze on me on the home screen Just didn't know about the "download" command. Thanks again every1...
