Those are the cause of most bricks.....

But a powerfaillure at the wrong moment....

A small kid stumbling over your USB lead whilst flashing....

Far fetched.... nope.... Had last one, only just finished flashing ( 1 or two seconds earlier and I would probably have a brick....)

Also I have blown main fuse in my house doing electrical repairs..... (imagine that whilst flashing)

So there are risks, but one can prepare to minimize the risks to almost zero.

eg: better to flash from laptop, as it can continue during electricity blackout...

Not flashing during a thunderstorm (because of possible powersurges)

Locking you kids outside of the room... :D

Do your reading before flashing, ask if uncertain, ask again if not sure.

If Flashing would really be

without

any risk, it would probably not void your guarantee.....;)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
not wishing to make light of the words of caution, but ive pulled the usb cord half way through a flash, just by being a bumbling, stoned fool. (twice this year, in fact) with no ill effects, other than the failed flash.

That being said, i certainly wouldn't advise it!

I have a feeling (just from stuff ive read) that the dangerous part is whilst the radio portion is being flashed, because ive read several threads that seem to boil down to a faulty radio flash preventing further flashes.
[HD2 General] Wilco:
The Radio Rom is more or less a kind of BIOS of the phone.

It is really very lowlevel.

Looking at Android makes it a bit clearer as to what a Radio ROM can do: Android shuts down windows [normal flashed ROM like dutty's or Energy) , but still uses radio ROM...

It unlocks the possibilities of the phone, (If I am correct there was once a phone delivered without GPS functionality, flashing radio would ulock the GPS. Als the extra memory can be unlocked through Radio ROM)

The Radio ROM seems to define what can and what can't be used (which IO streams are available, BIOS stands for Basic Input/Output System)

I guess they're just internal samsung firmware nomenclature... Don't really know if they have a meaning...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadWhips:
They do have meanings.

In brief: F came out, then G came out, then H is newer, then M is newest for 2.1. The 'P' series are all 2.2 Froyo.

A lot of people on XDA have found the JM ones (newest 2.1) to be the best firmwares to run. The newest M ones are JM7 / JM8 if I'm not mistaken

The 2 letters right before the JH2 are for region. E.g. in UGJH2 the UG is N.America I believe.

Hi all.

Pico TTS included in my Android 2.2 (running on an HTC Desire) shows very weird word accentuation when used in Italian (one of my main languages).

Even the "demo" sentence in the settings is spoken with 2 wrong accentuations on the 4 words composing the sentence. It's 50% errors. Even the word "italiano" has an accent on the first "a" (as in English) instead of the second one.

Is there a way to fix/replace these wrong accentuations?

still no luck.

Can anyone suggest me what to do.

can anyone on T-Mobile UK using SLCD (if it matters) upload a goldcard i could use to update to froyo, and get some screen atleast

3. Select Browse & Download

4. Select Flashes_SONY_ERICSSON

5.Select X10

6. Select R1FA016

7. Choose your desired Firmware and flash your mobile with Omnius (login to app using your registered account details).

8. Finally perform either an update OTA or through SE Update service, u'll have the latest branded FW afterwards.

ANYWAY... any voda firmware out there I can use to flash my friend X10?

If not, what generic FW would I use, the UK one huh?

Will SE Update software let me download the latest update afterwards? :confused:

Hey guys, just got my SGS and really love it. However there seems to be a certain weird problem that totally ruins my use of the phone.

Just to mention that i've already searched the web for similar problems but didnt find anything useful.

On WiFi, everything works perfect. (Gmail, other pre-installed email app, Browser, Youtube, Facebook by Facebook, Facebook for S!, Syncs with everything, you name it!)

On 3G however, i can only get the browser and build-in email client to work. (and that cute little Accuweather widget to refresh) While these are working, for some strange reason all the other apps (GMAIL, Youtube, Facebook for facebook, Syncing) dont recognise a network connection.

Isn't it weird for some to be working and others not to be working at the same time?

Well thats the main problem, tried everything, limiting only to 2G, factory reset etc. Is there a possible solution? Thank you in advance, keep up the good work.

+problem: Facebook for Samsung works in both 3g and Wifi but does not load any pics whatsoever!.... anyone's help will be much appreciated

I used to have this bug too, and some others reported. What you can do is :

1. Try a WM ROM reflash (using Task 29 first), format your sd card and put a fresh copy of Android on it and see if the bug reappears

2. Try a different Android loader - when it did happen to me, i switched from the loader i used then to Mskip,s loader - the sound bug was gone after that.

Hi all,

i am running mattc latest android build with 2.12.50.02_2 radio.

I have been using the build for about 3 weeks now and have since 'linked' my contacts to their facebook accounts to get contact pictures as well as to see their status updates.

However my contacts always seem to reset every time i used titanium backup to backup or when the phone shuts down (1%battery) while in android.

As a result i have to re- perform the task of linking all my contacts with their facebook account everytime and this can be tedious.

does anyone else have this issue and knows of a way to solve it?

Hi,

Am currently using the Evo kernel (latest provided via Bangsters 1.4) and have a somewhat working light sensor.

I can see the readings showing under CM6 settings ... user interface ... Automatic backlight ... Edit other levels

(Well it works sometimtes and sometimes not - I think it's happy after a fresh reboot but every time I change the screen brightness settings manually, it seems to knock it out)

Anyway, does anyone have any good settings for the various levels of brightness? Do you enable the filtering to smooth out the screen response? If so, again, what settings? Decrease hysteresis? On/Off? Setting?

Thanks all...

[Touch HD General] Smobbo:
Use this:

in combination with the work by Camro.

That's (as far as i know) the best out there atm for our Touch HD.
[Touch HD General] Holy Bear:
That may be true, but you have to take into account that your first post was a bit of a "drive-by shooting" kind of thing.

The developers here aren't unfriendly, but years of people posting "Hey what's the best X thanks" will make most people a bit weary.

In other words, there is a lot of information here but the best way to get help is to ask with a bit of knowledge beforehand. For example:

"I have a Touch HD and want to run android. I know about HaRET and how to install an android build on my SD-card, but am unsure which build to use. I've seen build X, Y and Z and am wondering whether someone has tried any or even better all of them, and could tell me which one seems the most stable.

I'm thinking of trying X, but if Y is a lot better I'd prefer to get that on my first try."

Also, you can't find "the best most stable ROM" using search because, well, that's up to a lot of different factors.

Often, the only way to make sure is by trying a lot of them yourself and see what works best for you.

Finding what works for you takes time and effort.

If you can show that you're willing to spend both, people here will be nothing but helpful. And I'm not saying you're not willing, I'm just saying that maybe that wasn't very clear from your first post. Know what I mean?

Good luck with setting up Android on your HD.
