It doesn't seem to be rooted. To get the adb shell to recognize the device and to get Dalvik Debug Monitor to see the device, I followed the instructions here rbgrn.net/content/399-how-to-get-archos-5-internet-tablet-adb-working-on-x64-windows

I used HiDROID instead of Archos5 and the device id is USB\VID_18D1&PID_0002&MI_01

I run winXP not win7 and this worked. Screen capture works too. The programs I installed that require root just force close.
[General Topics] superchaos:
The screen could be a lot better. It is like there is a film on top of the screen for touch capabilities. The battery holds really well unless you are watching videos. 4-5 hours of constant use. You can leave it plugged in too. I am hoping it is upgradeable. The OS is built for a phone.

How do I get a list of hardware devices in the phone? Not just the specs on the pamphlet but actual hardware names/mfg's?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PerpulaX:
Since upgrading to XXJPH, Chrome to Phone has stopped working. The Chrome extension says that it sent the link, but nothing happens on my phone. I reinstalled the app several times, but that didn't help either.

Maybe related to this problem, AppBrain's Fast Web Installer doesn't work, either.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Does anyone else have this problem at all?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Infestor:
Works like a charm here. Chrome to phone is quite prone to connection errors, so maybe try connecting/disconnecting and also linking/unlinking your Gmail account on the phone to Chrome to Phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thechamp007:
I initially also had same problem when I upgraded to JPH.

UnInstall + Cache clear + Install did the trick for chrome to phone, but still I am unable top get webInstaller running I think app is not compatible with froyo.

anyone running it sucessfully please report...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superm1:
My intentions were to do the OTA and then re-root (as necessary) using a custom recovery from an s-off unrevoked forever.

So before starting, my device was set up with netarchy's OTA 3.26..651.6-Final-Froyo-Rooted-0dexed with no changes to /system other than updating su to 2.3.

I had the engineering bootloader on, no major problems.

Today I decided to run unrevoked forever to get S-Off to be able to do OTA's again. no problems there.

I flashed the original HTC recovery and then proceeded to do today's OTA. Everything looked fine until after a few reboots it brought me back to the fastboot bootloader screen. Whenever I pick fastboot and get into the HBOOT it tried to look through for a PC36IMG.zip but nothing more. Doesn't boot into the OS at all.

If I go into recovery, it's the triangle with an exclamation, can't go any further.

I did a nandroid backup earlier today so I tried to put all those .img's in a PC36IMG.zip in the root of the sdcard along with an android-info.txt like this:

modelid: PC3610000
cidnum: SPCS_001
mainver: 3.26.651.3
hbootpreupdate:3
DelCache: 1
DelUserData:0
modelid: PC3610000
cidnum: SPCS_001
mainver: 3.26.651.3
hbootpreupdate:3

It's not picking up on it and trying to run though. Same thing if I try to flash a custom recovery again, it's not even offering.

So what are my options at this point? I just want a functional phone again, rooted again or not..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTC88:
I don't know if this bit of info will be of any help, but once you are at the red exclamation mark, you can hold volume up and press power button to take you to stock recovery...i think.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superm1:
I got into that by accident once, glad you could explain how it happened. Not too much help though :(

I do have good news however...

Using the PC36IMG.zip at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=780141 I was able to get the phone back to life.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superm1:
After getting it back to life, it takes the OTA without trouble. It still wouldn't flash a custom recovery (Partition Update Failure), so I re-rooted with unrevoked3 and that gave it a custom recovery without any troubles.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIPin@:
Here is a problem,

My POWER BUTTON NOT FUNCTION AT ALL.

Phone is absolutely naked, Bootloader Locked, Not Rooted and STOCK FR91 Rom.

Can any one tell me HOW TO PERFORM FASTBOOT OEM UNLOCK without POWER BUTTON.

I could reboot to FASTBOOT USB mode. I could select YES with Volume UP/DOWN keys, BUT I COULD NOT CONFIRM THIS ACTION WITH POWER BUTTON.

Does any one knows how to unlock without confirmation, maybe additional command?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houzuoguo:
Since your phone is not rooted neither bootloader unlocked, so I would suggest you to contact HTC to repair your power button, if it is possible.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Also, if you just want to root - you can manage without unlocking the bootloader now. In your case it might be better solution.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIPin@:
Contact HTC is not a solution, because it is not so easy in my Country (Belarus) and I have removed "VOID" sticker, I was trying to fix button, but have failed.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIPin@:
Also I'm using Universal Androot to get root access.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
If you have root - you don't need to unlock the bootloader.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Without the power button you can't unlock, but as long as you're still on FRF91, then flash_image is a good substitute.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIPin@:
But How I could flash CyanogenMod 6.0 then without unlocked bootloader?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIPin@:
Does flash_image for G1 is suitable for Nexus one.

As I could understand, it allows me directly to write *.img to specified area from the device shell. Am I right?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Yes, you're right.

You don't flash CM6 or any other ROM by fastboot. You flash them in recovery. And you flash recovery either by fastboot or by flash_image.

The guides are in Nexus One Wiki. Go there, "Recovery", "using flash_image".
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RIPin@:
Thank you.

Finally I have installed CM 6.0 ROM using flash_image method.

But I have question, should I completely remove this files : /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and /system/recovery-from-boot.p? Or I could restore them after recovery flashing?

Recovery - No Power Button Confirmation - I'm loving it.

Rom - adhoc, trackball wake and so on - I'm testing it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
yes, completely remove them.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chelsea_fc:
do you can give step by step how to make it works, i have the same problem with lock bootloader and power button broke and currently bootloop :confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaplah:
Another reason someone might want to do this. I have a Asus Zenwatch that needs to be flashed due to a bad update. Unfortunately the power button is located on the back. To hook the watch up to the computer to issue the "fastboot oem unlock" command I need the phone to be on the charging cradle. To hit the power button I need to pull the device off the cradle. It turns itself off the moment it's off the cradle.

I just ordered a cheap cradle that I can drill through to create a hole to access the power button, but a method of triggering this without needing to confirm on the phone / watch is needed.

[XPERIA X10 General] NightSidew1nd3r:
Because the galaxy s is a pos, the gps doesn't even work
[XPERIA X10 General] Wolfbreak:
The X10 itself is a Great Phone the Problem is just the SE and their Devs, they are to dumb to make a running 2.1 /65k Xd), they should fire all and call the XDA Devs they are 100 times better. Such a great Phone but such a outdated Software.
[XPERIA X10 General] Sakiwinkie:
Vote for the x10 for sure. SE may have done a terrible job keeping this fine piece of hardware up to date but given time I'm sure the devs here will fix that. With 1.6 on the x10 we are not seeing its full potential.

[XPERIA X10 General] Herr Noobien:
I get the feeling the Galaxy S fanboys are saying the exact same thing. Believe it or not, some of us actually like our phone the way it is right now.

[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Well apparently we should all be happy with our 1.6, despite when buying in April we were promised an update "very soon"
[XPERIA X10 General] Herr Noobien:
True (good point actually. That slipped my mind :D) but I do find it ironic that some people are voting for the SGS (most likely) just because the X10 got a delayed update.
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Correction: persistently delayed update. Im not a legal expert but personally I feel that I made a purchase on a product that was falsely advertised. X10 is great on paper but why advertise the 2.1 update if they can't delivery it until October.

Also do you not find it slightly annoying that the post on SE blog regarding update was made this morning (23rd), and delayed by weeks again when most people were expecting the update this week. Surely they knew this weeks ago?
[XPERIA X10 General] Herr Noobien:
It's not really persistantly delayed. It was set for Q4 this year, got pushed forward to Q3 then went back to Q4. Shuffled is the word I would use :p

Still...I would really like to know what on earth went wrong...

Don't get me wrong, I think SE are a bunch of twats (can they even crack their own bootloader? They should give the devs some help and we would have CM6 running in no time), but I still like the phone the way it is. It suits my needs and I can't ask for more than that.

And yes it's very annoying that they have to break the news to us while everyone is waiting for the update that was supposed to go live any second now :mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
It suits my needs too, I need a phone but I'm just annoyed how an old os was used and now were waiting for an old update.

And in reply to the "shuffle" they never made it clear when they released the phone that it was going to be q4. Instead I was left to rely on unconfirmed rumours from places like mobiles.co.uk and gsmarena that update would be in coming months after release. But its now over 6 months.
[XPERIA X10 General] Herr Noobien:
It's like Duke Nukem Forever all over again :confused:

The phone was released in late March~mid April I believe. They announced the Q4 update at the start of May (http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/produ...on-xperia™-x10-to-get-uxp-upgrade-in-q4-2010/) so that's roughly half a month (or a full month depending on where you are).

EDIT: For the sake of staying on topic, the Xperia is leading by a hair.
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Which is a shame if like me you bought it in April and were expecting an update before summer. So the announcement in May was a little too late for a lot of people.

I'm not trolling, its just I don't think that this constant defending of SE is justified. Whereas criticising them is.
[XPERIA X10 General] chris_knows:
I like my Xperia, but I gotta admit, the Samsung is better in many ways. With 1.6, it's worse than most phones running 2.2...
[XPERIA X10 General] Herr Noobien:
I don't really think anyone is defending SE. It's safe to say that 100% of people on here hate their guts. No one here has tried justifying SE's actions or defending them at all. However, most of us (I think) are just simply happy with our phones.
[XPERIA X10 General] jayman1986:
Spot on, on paper the xperia is far better and also looks a lot better. But the fact that Samsung has 2.1 released and official update will be to the current 2.2(not forgetting the custom roms already available) and not and old OS like xperia is a major head turner. Like I said in an earlier post - released with an old OS and then the update is not really an update but again another old OS. At least Samsung galaxy is fulfilling its potential!
[XPERIA X10 General] Wolfbreak:
X10 is still in front though now probably all mad at SE^^ lol
[XPERIA X10 General] losdrivare:
For me it breaks down to bad GPS on the SGS vs. bad telephony (clarity/volume) and slow updates on the X10. Sorry, Galaxy S wins.
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
Yes it does, updated today on att. GPS lock within 10 meters in seconds.

That and this whole thing is statistically void, its not a random sampling, so even with 100% reporting that they "think" xperia is better or the galaxy s (which is what the poll is for, "thinking") it doesn't actually mean anything. What I do find funny is the xperia is pitted against the "galaxy s" not a specific iteration of that phone, and the link to the "galaxy s" sends you to the "galaxy." Do you guys really need to bloat your own confidence in the phone you bought? I gave the xperia a vote, just to keep your dreams alive. Just think, in october you might even be on 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 General] x10_droid:
Hi folks,

I have only used my X10 for three weeks now, and although I was disappointed with the 2.1 update being delayed, I still voted for the X10. Its great as it is, for browsing and watching youtube. Android is holding the device back. If this thing had Maemo/Meego on it, I would have loved it.

I tried a Galaxy S for a few seconds and was put off by how cheap it felt in the hand. Besides I did not find the text sharp enough on the SAMOLED screen.

So, X10 in my opinion is better and makes a worthy finalist.
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
You sir, are just silly.

I once touched an x10 and caught herpes. Even though I've only seen Galaxy S on the TV while i was on a spirit walk, I voted for galaxy s because of the herpes.

That and Sony lied about it using android, x10 only runs windows mobile 6.5, I can tell because the herpes is a 6.5 strain.
[XPERIA X10 General] x10_droid:
Let us assume that Sony lied about X10 running Android. Even then by November, that should be corrected. Now take a look a this to see what I mean by the Galaxy S screen.

www boygeniusreport com/.../google-nexus-one-display-actually-not-800x480-resolution/
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
I would... but thats not a link... nor is it about the galaxy s. :P That and that poor nexus one is actually running an AMOLED, not a SAMOLED... you know, little details.
[XPERIA X10 General] x10_droid:
Well as a new user I cannot post links. So I deleted couple of dots like others do.

Regarding the link being about Nexus One and not Galaxy S, that is because the screen pixel pattern is the same. It is called pentile matrix display. As far as I know Nexus One and Galaxy S phones use them. I think even HTC Desire uses it.

You can just google Pentile Matrix display and get lot of information on why the text sharpness is lacking on these phones.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
So hang on, are you saying that you voted for the SGS just because of a tv advert?

Android version isn't everything you know. You could say the the x10s camera is over 50% better than most other smart phones out there regardless of the OS.

Talking about OS where did WM 6.5 come into this, you should know the x10 has android 1.6 aka donut?!
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
See above, galaxy S is a super amoled, not an amoled, also hardware is different, and completely different manufacturers. If you wanna tell me the galaxy s has less than 800x480, you gotta be finding some way to prove it, and i dont mean telling me you counted the pixels.
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
Sorry, I should go back and fix it with "/sarcasm" in front, lol.
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
Well each to their own and everyone is entitled to their own opinions and that.

We should get back on topic though......
[XPERIA X10 General] x10_droid:
I am glad that you are at least open to the idea that may be resolution of Galaxy S is not what they claim it is.

You are right about Galaxy S having SAMOLED screen whereas Nexus One has an AMOLED screen. But that does not tell anything about the actual pattern of pixel elements making up the screen. SAMOLED improves visibility under bright light. That is it's main advantage over AMOLED.

Here is the wikipedia page on Pentile Matrix display. You will see that both Nexus One and Galaxy S are listed.

en wikipedia org/wiki/PenTile_matrix_family
[XPERIA X10 General] The Gingerbread Man:
I just voted and x10 is still winning :)

Make your vote count people, you know which is the best really ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
Its whichever you own
[XPERIA X10 General] sevenvt:
Definitely open to all possibilities. But since nexus is a smaller screen than the galaxy s, shouldn't I be nearing almost absurd looking screens because of the stretch to match that low res?
[XPERIA X10 General] x10_droid:
The resolution is not low by any means. I think it is closer to 392x653.

Source : www intomobile com/2010/03/25/brief-google-nexus-one-screen-resolution-is-actually-392-x-653-not-480-x-800/

This is still better than what Nokia is going to put on the E7 (640x360) and the E7 has almost the same screen size (4") as a Galaxy S. So the resolution is still good for a screen that size.

Having said that, Galaxy S has one thing going for it that no other Android phone has including HTC Desire Z and HTC Desire HD. That is UI acceleration using the GPU. It is the only phone which has a buttery smooth UI accelerated through the GPU. Atleast for now. I am hoping X10 gets it with Android 2.1 update :)

[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
I had to vote for the Galaxy S. SE's continued lack of commitment to the software-side of the X10 leaves me wanting more from it. Meanwhile my friend's Bell Galaxy Vibrant is pretty much flawless. He hasn't seen the GPS issues other have, and all my extensive testing with it show a faster more responsive phone than my X10.

SE needs to get their act together to win a competition like this. Frankly, I'm very surprised the X10 even beat the Desire to get this far.
[XPERIA X10 General] Nankov:
X10 is loosing now by alot.... i am also pissed at SE but the phone is still amazing.. it has some points that are really strong. I had the galaxy and sold it after a week. That phone is seriously unstable.. the camera is half that of the x10 and no light, the build quality is poor.. audio on the video rec sucks big time. You can see pixels on screen from a mile away, phone shuts off by it self, freezes, gps is a joke,lag, tint issues and possible future burn ins on screen. Also the advertised 512 ram is fishy as it shows 300 somthing on the froyo rom total ram... just the whole phone is a mess and its ugly too. There is just no connection between the phone and the user like there is with the x10. So that galaxy doesnt deserve to win with all these problems. Specs are not everything if the phone is not reliable and is not performing like its supposed to...
