[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legend221:
Wow sorry to see the HTC Dream/G1 suffer the way it did.

I think its time to hang up the phone for good.

Save the money you would pay to fix it and move onto something newer.

Use this to base your decision on --->>> http://smartphonebenchmarks.com/
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crz6662:
Is that really a fair comparison ? It's a non-rooted G1 running 1.6. I'd like to see the results on a rooted/flashed w/Froyo 2.2 Also not overclocked like some of them.

Screens are cheap, relatively easy to install fix for a $400 phone. Seems a waste to "hang it up".

Interesting info @ site though.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legend221:
The HTC Dream/G1 is dead last in benchmarks.

Unless he can find a screen for dirt cheap I believe it would be a waste of cash.

If he is eligible for a full upgrade discount from his provider let him decide for himself.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crz6662:
Agreed, it is his decision.

Root/Flash and overclock the G1 and your saying it will still be dead last ?

So another words, you break your $400 phone and "you" would just buy a new one ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mappet_hirane:
I woke up this morning i my screen glass was boken (i dont remember how 'cause i was too dunk :D) ..

well, the thing is ... are those replacement screen on ebay like the original, i mean super amoled ???

is there a way to replace only the glass and not the whole screen? anyone know where to buy only the glass?

thanks a lot ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nemethb:
The replacements are LCD. The reason you have to replace them is because you can't seperate the glass from the OLED. Maybe getting so drunk wasn't worth it? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MKVFTW:
Im sorry, your wrong. They aren't LCD replacements. They are SAMOLED screens. I just put my replacement in friday. The one i got from ebay was OEM and works and fits perfectly.

Also, getting drunk is ALWAYS worth it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Berserk87:
how much money do the replacements run for?

ebay links?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] PhoenixFx:
$55 - $100
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mrfil13:
So this screen replaces the glass front as well.

Not that i have damaged mine ( touch wood) but always good to know.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] radat:
That's one reason why you shouldn't get drunk!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nemethb:
You're 100% sure they're AMOLED? Whatever the case I don't think breaking a phone is worth it to get super hammed. If you're so inclined to get hammered maybe you should leave your phone at home because having broken your screen just cost you 2-3 bottles of some Grey Goose...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MKVFTW:
Im 100% certain that the screen i got is SAMOLED. But i still need to find a home button :mad:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dirtysnypa:
i have replaced the screen on my galaxy s, the screens advertised on ebay are infact super amoled screens, they are advertised as LCD is just a simple mistake (i remember picking one up around £30). The original screen is attached to the phone with a double side sticky tape! You'll just have to rip it out but when you get to the home button you have to carefully separate the ribbons for the touch sensitive buttons which are attached to the glass. Then its just a matter of sticking everything back in place and jobs a goodin'

There is a guide on youtube on disassembly which is simple, the rest you have to figure out yourself.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mappet_hirane:
thanks for the reply's ...

but i still have one doubt ..

since the front glass covers the whole front of the phone, maybe it's not the same glass of the screen .. could be an aditional glass above the screen .. or not?

im telling this because my screen broke just 2 or 3 millimiters above the menu button and 1 o 2 mm bellow the screen ...

so, maybe i don't have to replace the whole screen system ....

do you know about a case replacement? maybe that could have the front glass ...

i'll post some pictures of my broken screen when i have the chance ...

thanks ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MKVFTW:
You will have to replace the whole screen/SAMOLED assembly as they are expoxied together. The SAMOLED is so thin that removing it will ultimately damage it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Schmich:
It is indeed a very stupid design from Samsung with the screen going all the way down around the home button. It has made the glass very vulnerable there and practically all screen cracks start there.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MKVFTW:
Does anyone have any idea on where i can get a home button. I dont need the ribbon cable and sensors just the physical peice of plastic that is the button itself. I am realy desprate.
[General Questions and Answers] JordanByrnes:
First Off im not a newb....i used the search function but we all know how ****ty that is....i found some answers but none of them relate to my issue...so please spare me the same "use the search" or "maybe you shouldnt of messed with your phone"

I downloaded the newest Cookies home tab and decided to delete it...now my sense wont load....everything else does though...I can hit the start button and it will bring up my start menu and ect.

I downloaded CHT to my storage card from the get go, does this make a difference?

If you could can you please give me the solution or provide me with the link if there already is a thread on this...

thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
Eeks, installing CHT to a Storage Card is 10,000% not recommended {as the main HTC Sense files it 'coincides' with are in your devices \Windows\ directory.}

There may be a fix, but don't take my word for it.

First, try installing CHT to your DEVICE this time, reset, then uninstall it.

If that doesn't work, download and install THIS to your device.

Once installed, tap the icon in your start menu once.

You'll see a 2 second Windows Wait Cursor.

Tap it again, this time it should spin a bit longer. Soft reset your device.

If Sense still won't load, I hate to say, but a Hard Reset may be in your best interest.

Just for the record, unless it's an Application or a Game, I wouldn't recommend installing anything else to your Storage Card.

Examples of things that should ALWAYS be installed to your device:

1.) WinMo Themes {taskbars, softkey bars, taskbar icons, etc..}

2.) Sense/Manila modifications, themes, etc..

3.) System Tweakers {cleaners, registry editors, ram optimizers, etc..}
[General Questions and Answers] JordanByrnes:
Thank you! ill give this a shot when my phone is charged up
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
Sounds good. Hope you get the problem settled without the need of a Hard Reset.

Keep me updated.
[General Questions and Answers] JordanByrnes:
Ok the first two didnt work.....if i do a hard reset im afraid that it isnt going to work and then im screwed because CHT is the only thing that is making my phone work
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
May I ask why you are trying to rid of CHT?

You can keep it installed and keep the basic look of the default Sense {with the help of the CHTE of course}.

Just style it up, and pretend it's not even there. :P <---being a smartass, sorry.

Also, if you do a hard-reset, it will just set your device back to day one {or to your ROMs default state}, so all changes you have made will be undone... think of it as a 'Fresh-Install' of Windows on a PC, because relatively, Hard Resetting is exactly that, except on a Mobile.
[General Questions and Answers] JordanByrnes:
I did the hard reset and it worked. I also downloaded CHT again (to my device)

I wanted to delete it to see if everything would go back to the original, i dont know why i just like making sure every thing can go back to normal.

After I downloaded CHT again I also deleted it to see what would happen and the Sense will load now...... so now I have CHT and loving it. Thank you for you help
[General Questions and Answers] Agent Zach:
Well, sorry to hear that you had to Hard Reset, but I'm happy that you got everything running smooth.

Enjoy CHT. The possiblities are almost endless with it. :)

[Streak 5 General] esokolov:
Hi,

I have a strange bug I've never seen on other Androids I've been using.

When navigating with Google Maps, sometimes the GPS icon in the tray flicks out, and navigation stalls. Then, usually 5-10 seconds later, the icon appears and navigation resumes.

It happens in mapping mode too (Google Maps go from precise GPS to loose Cell/WiFi positioning), as well as other programs that try to acquire coordinates like TripAdvisor.

It's not like the GPS is losing satellites, that would make the GPS icon blink, not disappear. It's like I've disabled GPS in settings or in the power widget.

I have US AT&T Streak, unrooted, with original 1.6 firmware (6601), unlocked by Rebel SIM, using it on Fido (Canada).

I sincerely hope it's a software bug, not the problem with my particular Streak...

Comments, anyone?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vamp6x6x6x:
Ok, I was thinking about maybe using that one click root app I found on the market but i need to know how safe is it? and is there a fully awesomely working version of Froyo out there or even gingerbread I can use and if so how do I install it?

And when the official froyo update comes out will my phone still be able to revive the over the air update?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipugh:
Using the OCLF/Root was completely safe and easy, for me at least.

No issues at all doing it, it went very smooth with no issues at all.

Yes -- you can still receive OTA updates once you've rooted.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kboater:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vamp6x6x6x:
yEA, i KNOW YOU ARE PROB RIGHT BUT i REALLY WANT FROYO SO MUCH

ps- sorry for caps
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
Safe as in what? Secure wise or bricking your device? The Vibrant is easy to root but secure wise you need to be careful since your device will be "open" to any program getting root access.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lrobles787:
I see people use the click app to root their phones. Check it out on YouTube that's where I found the info. Personally I am not going to root my cuz I don't want to deal with the headaches. Yes I have root one android phone before & was successful. I enjoy putting different roms but when I flash CM6 one his first updates on that then later on couldn't change the rom. The reason cuz I had a low memory I was told on the phone internally. So I am taking no chances with phone.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoDataFound:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagb1967:
Before Rooting....

1) learn how to use the keyboard

2) find out what Froyo and the consequences of installing a beta are

3) No, if you install Froyo probably you won't be able to get the OTA update when available and, you may not be able to roll down if you want to.

I would stay out of it if i was you
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eortizr:
not worthy to just root to flash the leaked Froyo... You only get the 'skin' of Froyo.. there is no JIT and GPS is not working
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamVib:
I would not root, because judging by you, you dont know much about android.

Few devices have froyo,

No devices have gingerbread.

If you think gingerbread, or even froyo is out then chances are you dont know how to use root features.

ps. I am not flaming, k?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vamp6x6x6x:
I understand what your saying, and believe me I know a lot about android and actually a little bit about rooting but I am super paranoid about bricking my phone for two reasons:

I love my phone.

I had to pay full price for it.

What I don't understand that much is about different roms and whatnot. As for the Gingerbread thing I was kidding, but I was serious about the Froyo thing...but after reading this thread i have decided that if I do ever root with the one click root app it will only me to install simple things like lag fix, adfree, etc. Thank you for your help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaughnsphotoart:
To do it again, I would not root mine. It has been less stable since I rooted it. Crashes to a black screen that says "user fault not kernel panic" and "upload mode". This is using a simple one-click root. So I advise against it.

What you'd find, should a problem occur, is that there is no going back. Folks recommend install this patch and that patch, and deeper down the rabbit hole (further away from stock) you go.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theking52:

Simple unroot your phone
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaughnsphotoart:
you know the one-click root that comes with the one-click lag fix? The unroot part didn't work.

This was my experience hacking on the g1 too... sometimes things worked, sometimes they didn't. When they don't, it's a lousy trip.

I just get sick of messing with it sometimes, and just want it to work.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Anyone know how to get permanent root?What i mean by permanent is when i reboot the phone i still have it.

I usually update to D107 then root phone using one click root method,install magic aosp rom,go to SuperUser(which i placed in /system/app folder) it ask me to update to newest version,i click ok and it works,i get root access in Estrong File Manager and other root apps,i can delete and modify /system folder from Estrong file manager.

After reboot i go to Estrong file manager and it doesnt work any more,SuperUser looses its update and any root app i install after reeboot dont get SuperUser prompt for root access anymore.And if i try to update SuperUser it says that update was successful but at the bottom i don't see new version.I still get root if i adb shell su,but on android i don't get asked for su anymore and i dont think i have root on the phone.Can anyone post step by step instruction for getting "permanent root",Thanx in advance.
[Epic 4G General] jokarak:
I think you do have root, but the issue is that root has to be re-enabled after every reboot (it is done automatically and doesn't require user intervention). Don't ask me why, but that seems to be how root in the Epic currently works with the jk method. The superuser app will work only the after it is installed, and subsequent to a reboot, will loses its ability to control permissions, and any new apps that need (or want) to get superuser status will do so without a prompt from the superuser app, which could be bad depending on the app.

Thanx man,that definetly looked promising but dint fix the problem.I wondrer if its just certain phones that have this problem because I don't see many people complaining or is it just certain roms and kernels.
[Epic 4G General] mykenyc:
Hey bro, this is what i did because last night i installed the mix kernel and was getting to many dropped calls even in voicemail.

I re-flashed my epic to complete stock, i then ran the Andro/koush one-click method to get clockwork recovery. Then i flashed the Bub's AOSP Magic rom, now i tried to install Andro kernel to get superuser but this didn't work (couldn't gain root), so then i removed superuser.apk and install fluff kernel power saver one and have perm root.

If i remember correctly those was the steps i did.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Thanx man,that fixed my root,you saved me alot of trouble,i guess it was the kernel.Oh and the fluff kernel is probably the smoothest kernel i used so far,now my root is there all the time,thanx again.
