Unfortunately, because it *is* a mesmerize, and I do not think any of the devs actually have one yet, it may be a bit.

Hopefully we can get one in the hands of jt/namebrandon/dirrk/ and the crew soon but as it stands, most of their efforts have been in trying to get the mesmerize kernel and apps on the fascinate...not the other way 'round.

Honestly wishing you the best man.

Same problem some others are having that I haven't seen solved yet. Successfully flashed CWM in ROM manager. When I reboot into recovery it takes me back to standard android recovery. I get the "E: failed to seek in /cache/update.zip E: verification failed Installation aborted" message. If I choose apply sdcard:update.zip, I get E:signature verification failed Installation aborted.

I've tried this both from manual boting into recovery (turn off and turn on with volume keys held down) as well as rebooting into recovery from rom manager. Either way, I can't get into clockwork recovery. Any advice is appreciated.

once you flash via odin you need to "flash" clockworkmod via rom manager to use CWM

No reboot after CWMrecovery.tar flash

After reading all the posts in XDA, Android Central and the internet in general, it seems this problem is only happening to me. I get NO reboot after what seems like a successful application of the CWMrecovery.tar file via Odin. I got all the files off fallingup's OP so I know their good (even though I have redownloaded them 3-4 times trying to fix my problem) and I have tried to apply the CWMrecovery.tar 10-15 times. Everything looks like it's downloading, I get the green square "Pass!" box, the phone shows a loading progress bar and the last code in the message box is "All threads complete (succeed 1/ failed 0) but I get no reboot after waiting sometimes 20 minutes. When I do finally unplug the phone, put in the battery and power it up I get this screen.

I in stalled the cwrecovery tar file to my i500 mesmerize and everything went ok in odin but now the ohone is hanging on the samsung screen what went wrong what do i do??? :confused: PLEASE REPLY PLEASE IM FREKIN OUT !!!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] phidelt82:
What went wrong? You flashed a Mesmerize with a Fascinate recovery file for one. I'm a new Mesmerize owner too, and eager to try new things with it. It's definitely a big no no to flash files from other phones to your own, no matter how similar they are.

As of right now there are no clockwork recovery files for the Mesmerize. You might get lucky with replacing the recovery files with stock files if you can still adb into it. You are probably going to either have to wait for someone to come out with a custom recovery for the Mesmerize, or quick fix it by replacing the phone. Hopefully you are on a top tier plan that offers phone replacement.

Stop flashing files meant for other phones to your phone. This method does not work on any other galaxy s phone other than the Fascinate on Verizon.

If you have another phone and want to help some devs test a recovery, go to #samsung-fascinate and maybe a dev will help.

I am unable to get ROM Manager to boot into recovery. I can do it manually using the update.zip file but I would rather be able to do it from within ROM Manager. I have followed the steps to the T and its a no go. I have flashed using ODIN several times and have selected the install latest clockwork within ROM Manager! Any ideas?
[Fascinate Android Development] 6spdtls:
I just have a question. When official froyo 2.2 comes out(i'm not gonna get unofficial version when it's available), do i need to unflash clockworkmod recovery before unroot, in order to receive the update (currently running stock kernel, and none of roms installed yet)? Or can I just unroot it without unflashing clockworkmod recovery?
[Fascinate Android Development] androidman78:
did you flash the permanent version or did you use the temporary version installing the .zip file because the second way is a temporary version only.

I have a rooted i500 with Cellular South. They call it the "Showcase". Anyways. I feel lost without ClockWorkMod. I don't want to brick my phone.
[Fascinate Android Development] jakechance:
Kind of a noob question but I have two update.zip files. One is /sdcard/update.zip and the other is /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery-update.zip . Are they both necessary? If not, which one is the one I need to boot my phone into clockwork recovery from normal recovery?

[EDIT]

I was just told that both files are needed. The update.zip in /sdcard is what the normal recovery needs to get to clockwork recovery. The one in /sdcardclockworkmod is what ROM manager uses.

Not terribly important, but good to know.

Someone care to help?
[Fascinate Android Development] 45ga76:
First of all when I got rom manager, it would only let me get 2.5.5.0 or something like that... But not the latest version. When I try flash on a rom or kernal, it says something like E could not open the file. It then says either wipe cache or install update.zip which I tried and it would get tje same error. Do I just rebooted. Also I have the regular rom manager, not premium. My main goal was to try to overclock with a custom kernal for use with set cpu. Any help?
[Fascinate Android Development] birdy827:
Just an FYI -- I followed these instructions exactly as posted, and while it worked beautifully, my Fascinate (got it today) with the update1 did not reboot automatically after the flash. After 10 or 15 minutes, I just disconnected the USB and put the battery back in, and voila. odin had the reboot checkbox ticked too.

So, to those freaking out because it's not rebooting, still wait but all hope is not lost.

[Fascinate Android Development] soba49:
Regular recovery gives that error when you try to flash unsigned roms.

1. Select 'Flash Clockwork Recovery' from Rom Manager (it just copies update.zip to the root of your SD card)

2. Run Clockwork Recovery either from Rom Manager or by launching regular recovery and installing the update.zip you just put in. Installing this makes no permanent change to your system, it copies CWMR to your ram drive and runs it.

3. Select 'Install ROM from SD card' either from ROM Manager or CWMR.

Leave update.zip alone. Do not copy over it with other mod.zips.

Hopefully this makes sense now.

Now that the Backflip's been rooted, I'm really hoping to get something fresher than 1.5 on this thing, and I'm not waiting for Moto's 2.1 update any longer. It seems like kernelzilla's made quite a bit of progress on a kernel

bit (dot) ly (slash) brWGPv (sorry, I'm new to XDA and can't post links yet)

Is there a way to download, incorporate this kernel, then compile and sign cyanogenmod to update the device? I'm new to hacking, but I'm comfortable around a command line, and I've written a couple Android apps myself.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] v1nsai:
I'm looking into that sort of thing right now, I've got lots of development experience but I'm new to kernel hacking too. I'm in the process of educating myself on the whole thing because I'm tired of waiting around when I'm smart enough to be actually making contributions to this. Kernelzilla suggested www.elinux.org and www.kernelnewbies.org as places to get educated on the linux kernel. The main problem is that with android your flashing and it can go horribly wrong, I'm playing with goldfish aka the emulator right now but it's not really the same. I'm actually thinking of switching to gentoo just to get some hands on experience that won't risk bricking anything lol

Uhhh, aren't they already being looked at?:confused:
[Captivate General] Berserk87:
the 3 button issue has already been fixed.

and the samsung rep is already aware of the issues and posted updates about them a couple times.

Fixed? Uhhh... No. Neither have been fixed. There is no 3 button workaround for the Captivate yet. As far as I am aware, Samsung USA has yet to acknowledge th 3 button problem on the Captivate. And GPS is still not working consistently in JH7 so what mysterious ROM are you referring to?

However the three button recovery will not work on my phone unless I adb it.

It is interesting all the conflicting info out there.

I have been reading the GPS posts closely, and while I haven't counted, I would be there are more that it is not 'fixed' for than there are. I also feel that those who think it works fine for just haven't been in the right circumstances for it to fail.:eek:

But, that's good for them if it is fixed. :D
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
I would bet that anyone that says the GPS is "fixed" has used the workarounds. I wouldn't consider this a "fix". Or maybe it the Democrats definition of a fix?:eek:

It isn't fixed and your comment isn't very helpfull. I had Samsung on the phone yesterday and today and in no way is this fixed. It appears that there was a run of phones that the three button combo does not work.

Root is useless, what you need is bootloader hack to enable custom roms to be install onto x10 like Android 2.1 or 2.2.

But bootloader will never happen because no one can crack it. The way it going I say never. These devs guys are not good enough and I dont think they're knows what they are doing ... just try errors.

Live with your x10 or get a real device like HTC or Apple iphone4 I say.

Just so everyone know I am a collector and I got em all (hTc, apple iphone, samsung, nokia etc) but x10i is not the best IMO.
[XPERIA X10 General] Keithod:
Well considering the security that's implemented on the phone It's no wonder they're having difficulties. These developers mostly do it for free as a hobby and have created many great ROMs for other phones. What contributions have you made before you start rubbishing them and tout for business?
[XPERIA X10 General] gavriel18:
Install where's my Droid or some app like it as a system app so if u lose you're phone it wont matter if someone swaps sims or does a factory reset. U can still track it.

Use droidwall to limit what accesses data.

If u need support for certain languages u need root.

Use custom fonts.

Change screen density

I'm very familiar with android, but not the hero. I actually didn't even know the phone was an option for his network (alltell, purchased by verizon).

My father called me tonight excited he made the move to android. What would you guys suggest to make this phone optimized/fast/stable. Stable being the key since my father, while capable, will not be doing much with his phone.

Sorry for a one and done post, perhaps I can contribute here once I get my hands on the hero.

O, is sense nice on the hero or do you guys suggest lp or adw?

What else? O, he has an otterbox and sp on it, needed? I've always thought htc was top notch.

The store put anti virus apps and a task killer on his phone out of the box, i was not happy about that. I think 2.1 is okay without a tk, agreed for the hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I realize it is an open/lazy post, but I know nothing of the Hero and would much prefer yalls expertise.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larsgj:
I used sense on 2.1 and it was very stable, faster than on the 1.5 but still a bit laggy :(

I use LP now on FroydVillain and it's a breeze - very snappy. If I wanted a fast and stable phone without too much tinkering, I would just disable the sense UI from the stock 2.1 and replace it with LP.

Antivirus and taskkiller on stock 2.1? No way :D That is unneccessary and stupid at best.

I used sp on my hero the first month - but even though it was a top notch brand, I took it off and the screen suddenly felt so much better - it detects touch much better and the libophobe surface works very well. ...And the Hero's very (in)famous chin - well the reason for that chin IMHO is that you can throw the phone display first onto a concrete floor - and no scratches. I just use a cloth cover for it when it's in my pocket. One year - and not a single infinitesimal scratch yet :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:

Would you guys root him and put him on a ROM or leave it stock?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddotpatel:
I disagree with the other guy abit,....

My recommendation for fluidity (is that a word?) and stability is to root and install Villain12, it is a 2.1 SenseUI ROM,... But is FLAWLESS!? The best ROM I ever used,... In fact, I might re-load it!

Nope but it has because of some awesome devs ;) :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
HTC is basically finished with the Hero, so if you want froyo or anything interesting like that, it's custom ROM time :-)
