I tried tethering my ipod touch to my N1 on CM6 to watch Netflix episodes. I noticed that with native tethering, the video stuttered about twice a minute, freezing for several seconds before resuming. I closed out the tethering and switched to Wireless Tether for Root. The streaming immediately improved, and I was able to finish watching without disruption.

Has anyone else noticed a difference between native tethering and third party tethering for root? I wonder why there's such a difference.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jon102034050:
I have tried pretty much all methods mentioned in search, including:

plug usb in

hold down vol up and down

put battery in

see download screen.

also

just rebooting with vol up and down and power and releasing power as soon as screen goes away.

The way I got here was that odin started flashing firmware and then got locked up at cache.cfs (I think is what it was called).

Please help! Did I just buy a $375 brick??? Thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
In my experience I think you had the order of the battery pull method wrong. It makes a difference....try this...

Do this exactly....

- Leave USB Cable plugged into PC, but NOT INTO PHONE...

- pull battery from phone

- hold down VOLUP & VOLDOWN and do not let go

- insert battery...do not let go of VOLUP & VOLDOWN

- insert USB Cable into phone...do not let go of VOLUP & VOLDOWN

So long as nothing is totally bork'd you should see download mode pop up in a few seconds at this point..if so..you can let go now.

Are you using Odin3 v1.00 or v1.30? Depending on your version of Windows, the phases of the moon and all sorts of randomness having v1.0 stall at cache.rfs can be a common occurence.

Try using Odin3 v1.30 located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790026 if you are using v1.00. I've had much better luck with this version on x64 boxes...

If that doesn't work, I'm afraid I'm out of ideas...Best of luck
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jon102034050:
I was using Odin1.0 and I have win7 32bit. I also have a win7 x64 machine if for some reason you think that would make a difference...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jon102034050:
Prior to the first step, am I supposed to start with my phone on and at the Phone ! Computer screen?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterotaku:
Doesn't really matter since your pulling the battery as a part of the process...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KellyLewis3985:
dont know if this will help but i briked my phone with odin aswell and what worked for me was holding vol down and power with it turned on the screen went black i kept holding and when it came back on i was at download
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fnakfhe:
Does this work with locked download screens from bell?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] core99:
hi,

just do the following it will work:

1- turn off the phone.

2- plug in the USB cable.

3- wait until the battery green charging start.

4- press the vol + , vol - .

5- press the power botton.

6- when the screen gose black release the power botton only.

you should now be in the downloading mode...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jon102034050:
The problem here is that I cannot get the charging deal to pop up. It only displays the Phone ! Computer deal.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c-pimp:
same problem

I had the same exact issue... it is NOT bricked. I tried probably 120+ times to get into download mode and tried every which way.... just keep trying... i had battery out over night and tried in morning like 20 times and it finally went into download one of the times... it was a breath of fresh air to know that it wasnt bricked...i found out that if its truly bricked it wont boot up to ANYTHING, no hardware button lights or nothing....

just keep trying while holding both vol up and down... it just has to glitch in just right i guess from that screen you are seeing...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibrant2010:
Just keep Trying

I just had the same issue that your having and I know what your going through. What just worked for me was this and I found it in the Vibrant Android Development Section under "Think Tank" Accessing Download on Hardware locked phones.

METHOD 3: STUCK AT PHONE ! COMPUTER:

Plug in the USB cable.

Turn the phone on it's side and use both thumbs to hold Vol Up and Vol Down

Press and hold the power button with your right index finger.

The screen will go black, continue holding.

The screen will come back on, you'll see the same Phone to Computer icon

Continue holding, the screen will go black

The screen will come back on, you should see "Vibrant" release the power button and you it should go into Downloading

Hope it works for you as well as it did for me.:D

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inverseflux:
Yep, I sat for about 2 hours while my lonely G1 stared at me wanting me to us it again... out of no where, it kicked back into download mode. Stopped on the same issue though, Odin 1.0, cache file.

I've been less scared since that moment and been find getting down dl mode by pulling the battery before plugging into a machine.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Master™:
Is it really hard to search.. I just asked this question last weekend, It is like one the third or fourth page... Just do what the first guy told you..

- Leave USB Cable plugged into PC, but NOT INTO PHONE...

- pull battery from phone

- hold down VOLUP & VOLDOWN and do not let go

- insert battery...do not let go of VOLUP & VOLDOWN

- insert USB Cable into phone...do not let go of VOLUP & VOLDOWN

^ It works perfect

I don't imagine I have seen every one of the angles of this problem the way in which you have pointed them out. You are a accurate star, a rock star guy.

You have got a great deal to say and know so much about the subject that

i think you tough to just teach a class about it.

Thanks

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inverseflux:
Misread this.

When I had that happen, I held down volumes and power either 2 flashes or 3 flashes of the Phone---!---Computer screen.... pretty sure it was 2 and I let go of power for it to kick into download mode... might have been 3 though.

[Off-topic] captainstu72:
not buying stuff on the day does make sense - means she didn't waste money on clothes she wouldnt wear, and got rid of the impulse buy, and only got stuff she liked.

I like shopping - its fun. I get to piss around a lot with my fianceé whilst she shops so its no big problem! Besides, it also has brownie points....

[Galaxy S I9000 General] PhoenixFx:
I have seen few posts about this issue in the past, but couldn’t search them since search function is not working at the moment. So I thought of posting it as a separate thread for those who have this problem, after i stumbled upon how to do this by accident.

You can do it in the built in dialer, but it involves two steps: first you have to search by typing the first few characters of the first name (unfortunately I didn’t find a way to get partial matches or search for second name), then click the drop down arrow icon to the right of the contact name, select the contact again from the drop down list, this will give you another small popup window to choose which number to call (Home, Office etc..).

[Fascinate General] flam253:
Hi does anyone here know how to get into diagnostics mode with the Fascinate?

I've tried searching everywhere and using the codes for the Epic and other Galaxy S phones but it doesn't work.

If anyone out here knows it, let me know thanks!
[Fascinate General] dopepope:
i think this is what you're asking for?
[Fascinate General] egg_head:
That is the manual programming screen for the phone.

It's used for programming the handset in the event that OTA programming is not available.

The usual diagnostic mode dialing code on Androids is *#*#4636#*#*.

That dialing pattern works on my Droid 1 and HTC Incredible.

This changed with the Fascinate (maybe Samsungs in general- I haven't checked).

Someone needs to find the dialing form (eg *#*#<code>#*#*) that the secret codes are in.

I'm sure it's somewhere in the phone. I just don't know where to look.

I have a separate thread created asking for help find it.

The thread is called ' Sidetone - Need android_secret_code to access menu'
[Fascinate General] Harlson:
The diag. code for the Fascinate is *#0*#
[Fascinate General] balac_m:
you can check **33284

[Fascinate General] JUSMEJOSE:
Menu > Settings > Wireless & Networks

Enable Dial up Networking (Note: Be sure to disable this after flash has been performed)

Next..

Enable USB Debugging

-------------------------------------------

If Dial-up Networking is not showing perform the following. Dial **33284 followed by SPC (000000 or 468346 ) then scroll to Port Map and select HFK,DIAG. Once this is complete, you should now have Dial-up Networking showing up under Wireless and Network.

Bypass Activation:

Press "Emergency Call"

Dial *#83786633 then press send

After you press "send" press the "home" key and you should now be passed activation

Very nice work! Should have known that you would be the first one to knock out a MIUI theme!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pitmanr2003:
I am totally confused. I installed miui v1.05 then this icon zip in recover y and it says its a bad zip
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] thenewguy821:
I could be wrong here, but in the Original Post, samspoon said "This should work on any phone that is running MIUI 0.9.24 with the english translation pack.". If you are using 1.05, that may be where you are having problems.

Again, I could be wrong, as I haven't even tried the ROM and probably won't till it is a little more complete. I can deal with the 4g not working yet, but it says MMS doesn't work yet, and I send/receive a lot of MMS.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nugzo:
It works with 1.05 just fine for me
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
The MIUI evo port v 1.05 is 0.9.24 I was stating the version of actual MIUI it works with
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] pitmanr2003:
So you just flash the zip right after flashing rom in recovery
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
That's correct!

...revision 3 is uploaded! If you used a previous version you should be able to flash it and not need a wipe. If you haven't used any version you will need to wipe and install this before first boot!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] v_lestat:
fracking sweet man keep it goin!

and by wipe do you mean a full or just cache and dalvik ?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
If you have never used one of these revisions you need to do a full wipe as in factory reset + dalvik cache although clearing the data on Launcher might also suffice
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] haxrnick:
Works fine with MIUI 1.2 just wiping cache and dalvik. No need for a full wipe and this is the first time I've used the theme.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] SkelmecH:
Aww, You beat me to theming MIUI!

If you can find out where that damn dock file is stored, ill theme it for you :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] v_lestat:
looks good man, i dont like the silver/white folders though....

if i knew how i would change them back to the brown, or better yet black like the iphone is...

not sure why you changed them, presonal preference i suppose.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrcharlesiv:
I'll bite. I think it'd be funny to show my buddies at work with the iPhone 4 that I can have my Evo see something else that their iPhone can't do...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
it's actually the color scheme from itunes although I darkened the blue in revision 3 for the folder.. it's hard to 100% mimick the iphone because i don't have one and i don't want to scale images from 320x240 up as they'll be blurry

right now parts are "interpreted" but i'm working on making it more exact as I find examples to work off of
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] v_lestat:
just from a folder standpoint, on the iphone they are black from what i have seen. my ipod touch is still on 3.3 or something but not ios4 so....

the text being white against a silver/white folder does make them blend in too much and hard to read sometimes.

just food for thought.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] T Mac:
Will this not work with the new 1.21 rom or am I doing something wrong? I wiped data, factory reset, wiped dalvik and cache and then installed the MIUI 1.21 rom from recovery, and before rebooting I installed this theme zip and rebooted. I don't have the new icons. I then tried to go to recovery and wipe dalvik and cache again, rebooted and still nothing.

...nevermind, I got it. Somehow my first download wasn't complete. I thought that this would change all icons. It only changed some. Now I gotta reflash the rom to get rid of them. Unfortunately I didnt nand before hand. Should have known better.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Veritas06:
I think the OP said you need to do a full wipe if its the first time youre flashing his theme.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ViViDboarder:
Woah, looks cool man! There's no good ways to switch betwen themes other than to nandroid before right?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
If you want to undo the theme just flash 1.21 or whatever version you had previous and don't wipe before flashing. It will undo the theme and all of that.

Also check out the new folders/status tray and tell me what you think!

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] v_lestat:
what do you think about adding a litle flavor to the lock screen phone and sms icons?

maybe make the phone depression and sms depression in the icon itself green ?

or would that look wierd?

it would be really cool if they were green for a missed call or sms/mms

and regular for nothing..... is THAT possible?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] backdown:
Anyway of getting this for a different rom? i am not running MIUI :S
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Veritas06:
Not unless the OP wants to port it. This won't be compatible with any other ROM.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
Unfortunately not. The only instances that exist are for pushed and not pushed. I could invert them but I figured the green glow for activated made more sense.

Porting this to another rom/launcher is highly unlikely. It might be possible with ADW since it is theme-able but I've never actually looked into the depth it allows you.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] v_lestat:
you can not make iOS icons for apps and games that dont exist on the iphone....... otherwise you dont know how to make them look...

of course the itunes store shows all the thumbnails you cold ever want. probably just steal them from there and use them.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] samspoon:
I actually found a really handy template you can use to make pretty convincing icons so long as you have the android logo for the program although MIUI does it automatically with the blank icon.

http://files.dustinschau.com/Downloads/iPhone/iPhone4/Template.zip

This is what I used to make the lock icons for sms/phone and have used it for a few other things as well. You can enable/disable layers to get the desired outcome. Resize to 90x90 done/done.
