I would like to add to @spences post that you might want to erase your /data partition too, probably with fastboot -i 0x413c erase data. Otherwise you will have your old /data from the previous build left, that sounds like problems to me.

I havent done it this way before I'd usually either has wiped from recovery or via recovery option 1

I have however flashed a system.img this way when there were all these updates going onto the beta 2.1

Thanks a lot.You saved me
[Streak 5 Android Development] stevesoup:
So first off would like to thank W0nk0. Using his command made my dell streak into possibly the most expensive paper weight on the market. At this point it literally does nothing, its just off. No responsive from LEDs. No screen animation. Nothing! So secondly anyone know how to fix it? Would be very appreciative to anyone willing to help.

Anyways i used Odin3 v1.3 but i forgot to extract the Settins file with the exe from the rar and i fear this may be what is causing my phone to not boot up?

Hello I got a Rogers HTC Dream running Cyanogen Mod 5.0.8-DS, I'm just wondering can i install any other ROM that is labelled Dream/G1? I also got the latest radio installed.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezterry:
What rom?

You likely still have the 3.x radio that was originally on the rogers rom; for this to work your rom needs to be EBI1 (most "G1" dream roms are EBI0)

So either the rom needs a working (for rogers dream) EBI1/Magic 32A port *OR* you need to use 'fastboot' to install a 2.x radio (note use of fastboot for switching between 2.x <=> 3.x is important as flashing from recovery will brick your phone)

Note if you are a Rogers customer and have not signed the e911 wavier forum (either via calling rogers and waiting for a manual addition to the list or from the website) your data will most likely be cut if you move to a radio other than 3.22.26.17 (otherwise I'd have instructed you to install 3.22.20.17 when rooting as its more stable...)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sawdizzle:
So I started to download the Angry Birds Beta(One of my fav iPhone games), when my Evo decided it would be a great time to do a random reboot.

After phone reboots, I go back to the market. Start the download over, it completes. Then starts to install, when it then notifies me of a Unsuccessful Installation. Now I have tried this several times, rebooted the device a few times, even got the .apk and tried manually installing. With no dice.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or know how I can rectify this situation?

Thanks!
[Vibrant General] etaChase:
This might be a nube question... but I couldn't find an answer after searching the forum.

I am (patiently) waiting for an OTA update to address lag, GPS, 2.2 etc, and was not going to worry about root before these things happen. But I DO want to do a full recovery/backup and if I understand it, to do that correctly (using Titanium or similar) I need root. So, I want to root, even though I prob won't do any custom roms before the OTA.

So, I am considering my options to root...

Question: Is there any reason not to put the micro-SD card into a laptop, copy update.zip onto it, and then put the micro-SD back into the phone and then move the file into the correct directory in the phone's internal RAM? I would use astro to move the file. Then boot into recovery and select update package...

Might this work for some update.zip files and not others? Would it matter which update.zip I used?
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
Just search the market for "Lag Fix". It has a one click root option, by far the easiest way to root.
[Vibrant General] etaChase:
sweet - rooted.

phone seems much more laggy now. will try the lag fix and see if that helps.

BUT first a Ti back up...

thanks for the pointer... kinda surprised that had been around for a while but had not come across that specific fix yet.
[Vibrant General] etaChase:
success

Thanks again for the pointer to that path to root AND lag fix.

Lag is... gone. GPS is... better than it has ever been (though that is not saying much). And apps are backed up.

Hi,

I am trying to run scummmvm on galaxy and all in all games play very nicely. [ http://forums.scummvm.org/viewforum.php?f=17 for the forum]

(I really recommend to check Monkey Island 3 for instance)

The problem is that the SGS does not have enough hardware buttons (e.g camera key, dedicated search key) to use for all the functions (eg bring up virtual keyboard, right click).

Do you know any manner that would create "virtual" hardware keys (e.g. pressing menu plus back would be deemed as "camera key"; rooting / messing with kernel are available options)? Or in general can you think of any other solution on this matter?

Thanks,

E
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Pesticle:
+1!

I noticed Volume keys are not changing the volume, so if it's possible to remap them it would be awesome. You only need keyboard trigger and right click, right?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ppeccin:
Did you find a working version for the SGS? (2.1)

I tried to find one and only discovered it does not work for Android 2.x yet.

Can you point me to what you have found?

Thanks!

Paulo
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Evans_Prophet:
Yes I did:

http://anddev.at.ua/news/scummvm_port_in_progress/2010-06-02-1

Just download ScummVM-1.1.1-alt-vorbis.apk. Do not forget to unzip scummvm.zip on memory card (I did it in the internal sd).

You also need to to create a folder named "scummvm" on the internal sd to enable saves etc.

If you have the Curse of the Monkey Island you just copy to the external SD (in a folder) the Resources and the COMI.** and you are set to go.

On my SGS the Curse of Monkey Island plays PERFECTLY (with sound etc), but there is no right click button and no virtual keyboard button.

The author of the program is aware of the SGS problems, but...:

I know about problem with Galaxy S, but not have any idea how to fix this

Galaxy S have volume '+' '-' keys, but mamaich SDL-lib - not support this keys and i can't use this keys for scummvm"

Please note that the "back" button is currently used for "skip".

If we could somehow temporarily remap these keys, then we would have a game running perfectly!

Please note that this is the "unofficial" version of android scummvm - the official one (by a guy named "GUS") is due in September.

Hello there.

I installed the Artemis 33.1 yesterday, and read about it supported many radios, mine however was not on the list: 2.06.51.07

The ROM works fine though, but I was wondering, should I update radio? Is it any good to do so?

Copy & paste or drag/drop these files into the program files folder on the new disc drive icon in your my computer window. Click the safely remove icon on the task bar and disconnect your phone from the pc. Now click the window icon on the phone, and scroll to the file explorer icon and press it.

Just run on PC through Activesync, not in activesync

Activesync is for XP only, mobile devie center is the "ActiveSync" for Vista and Windows 7.

Functionality is equal (although perhaps when UAC active, one needs admin rights for full functionality - just guiessing about that though-)

You cannot run from activesync/mobile device center.

steps to follow:

1) Connect your phone to your computer

2) make sure you have partnership (even guest partnership is ok) betwwen phone and PC

3) Download the MS .net Framework from here and save it on your computer (eg in c:\tmp)

4) Run the downloaded package on your PC.

5) After running on PC, follow steps on your phone (if any)

It does not get any simpler...

If you have cab files (files with extension .cab) which are intended for windows mobile do not unpack (Windows unpacks, but one should not.)

There are 2 ways of installing cab files on your mobile

1) from your PC using activesync (tools, add remove programs), select cab and follow instructions (most people do not use this method)

2) Browse your device (either via activesync, explore, mobile device, storage card) Or by selecting disk drive on connection of USB. Then copying (drag cab onto storagecard of device) If using activesync, it will say something about conversion, dut take no not of that, as it does not convert cab files. Then on your device use a file explorer and find the cab you just copied to your device.

Open the cab file, it will install.

NOTE if one uses second option and if you are connected as disk drive, you should disconnect first before storage card is accessible on your device.
