[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
It's been slow recently but devs have overcome and done somethings that people didn't even think would happen, like Root and ROMs. We just need to be patient because our device is a bit of a challenge but I'm thankful for all of the people working to make this thing really rock!
[Droid 2 General] setyourgoals:
Thats what i kind of figured it was ( the bootloader ). i don't really even think it's so much as people going with the droid x because even looking at their boards, its still quiet. yah they have a couple of "roms" (tranquility, focused) but not like the eris's kaos.froyo or any of the other completely re-done kernels.

Don't get me wrong i absolutely love this phone and do NOT miss my eris at all, but i just wish there was some interest from devs on this phone.

Oh well, i'll just keep checking the boards i guess. :rolleyes:
[Droid 2 General] Hashbaz:
There is interest from devs for this phone. It's just taking time for them to get past the problems. You don't see many posts yet because they are working on that. Once there are work arounds I'm sure the development will pick up.
[Desire General] newstar:
I have branded desire which i de brand , with froyo ..

I only need root access but no custom recovery or mods just ROOT , can unrevoked help me with root acess with stock recovery ?

Ps: only root no other mods or recovery mean just need super user permission so i can also unroot with ruu ...

[Desire General] dexteral:
yep just use latest unrevoked method. all instructions are there. you can still go to stock with ruu after this
[Desire General] mortenmhp:
You should only make 1 topic making several will not help you apart from upsetting people.

Dexteral: if you read his post you would know that he don't want a custom recovery, which unrevoked would give him.

BTW the way you install superuser is by using a custom recovery so what you ask for is not possible now. And even with a custom recovery you can still unroot with a ruu. So just use unrevoked.
[Desire General] newstar:
Thanx for great help :) , my one point clear , its ok i can unroot with ruu but can i switch back to my orignal stock recovery ?

[Desire General] mortenmhp:
Yes flashing a ruu flashes the stock hboot, recovery and system probably also splash1 and a few more things :)

which was also what I ment by unrooting.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScooterG:
Try this:

Even Odin won't allow you to flash back to stock. Well, pay close attention and with some luck, you'll be good as rain...or something like that.

Fix 1:

1. Download Eugenes 'Froyo that does not brick' file.

2. Extract the files.

3. Open Odin, plug in your phone, then put it into download mode.

4. load the PIT file in appropriate area.

5. load the .tar file in the PDA area.

6. DO NOT check 're-partition'.

7. Click start, let it finish. Your phone will load and reboot into stock recovery. It will error out again. DONT panic! This is what's supposed to happen.

8. Now, pull your battery.

9. Download the 'True stock 2.1 firmware for the vibrant'.

10. Extract the files.

11. Once again, open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode.

12. Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.

13. THIS TIME you want to check the 're-partition' box.

14. Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine! BAM!

Fix 2: (use only if you know how to use adb commands)

1. Place the 'disable-lagfix' file in your sdk>tools directory

2. Get into clockwork recovery like you normally would

3. Follow these adb commands to push the 'disable-lagfix' file to you sdcard>voodoo

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
just tried that, the only problem is the phone wont go into recovery mode or download mode so its not recognized by the computer, it starts up and within 2 seconds restrats
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl0play:
Have you tried all these methods?

http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7946243&postcount=1

From what I understand most hardware locked phones will still go to download mode, just not recovery.

Make sure you release the power buttons, but continue to hold the volume keys as soon as the screen goes blank.

Otherwise I would just exchange it, I think that $130 bull**** is just to scare you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
Ya i was at that thread before, but like i said my vibrants hardware locked. I tried a couple of them at work and 2 out of six went into recovery mode. But no ive seen the $130 charge happen alot of times, also as soon as they turn the phone on its a different boot screen:rolleyes:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl0play:
Could you send it to Samsung under warranty?

$130 seems mighty excessive for just having to reflash something. In some ways I love T-Mobile but in all those little ways they are really starting to piss me off. I'm glad I got mine at Costco, they have a 90 day no questions return policy. Of course then you can ONLY take any issues to Costco...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
Well about a month ago one of my customers bricked his mytouch slide while rooting, he called htc and tmobile and one of the questions they asked was if he tried to gain root access. Htc told him if he did they will just send the phone back to him. He sent it to tmobile, they sent him a new one. But he got a charge for $130 on his next bill
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl0play:
Thats offensive, I would be more inclined to pay the $200 ETF and give them the finger.

T-mobile and everyone else in the android business needs to realize that the whole appeal of these phones is doing what we like with them. I could understand a $20 "re-flash fee" or something of the sort, but this is just completely out of touch with their own market. Of course so is hardware locking users out of their own phones recovery options. Sounds like a racket.

Sorry I cant be of more help and good luck.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
Ya but its every carrier that does it, not just tmobile.

Anyone else have any idea...?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthenry87:
Call T-mobile and tell them the phone won't boot into android. One of the trouble shooting steps is booting the phone into recovery and performing a master reset. If it won't boot into recovery then the phone obviously has a defect.

I'll leave it up to you wether our not you want to tell them you rooted the phone. If it's bricked then it's out of t-mobile's ability to fix it. It will have to go back to samsung to be reflashed.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
Im a rep for T-Mobile and the first thing they check on android devices is to see if the phone was rooted or modified in any way. If they find its rooted its an automatic charge, like having the ldi red or screen broken. I can boot to recovery because its hardware locked... do you know any way for me to put it into debugging mode without going into settings because it wont stay on long enough
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthenry87:
Yeah I'm aT-Mobile rep too. Tell me exactly how they will be able to tell if the phone is rooted if it won't boot into android. From what I understand they will have to use a method like jtag to flash the device manually with fresh stock firmware, thus losing root and removing the superuser app.

There would be no way to tell you're running a rooted rom because they will be manually replacing it with a non rooted rom.

Correct me if I'm wrong but please provide your sources. This is just what I've gathered from my days in the g1/vibrant sections.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zaduma:
They will try to turn it on and he has a custom boot screen.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigragu:
If you are using Odin and ADB you should be able to get into download mode whether or not the phone is hardware locked. I have not heard of anyone not being able to get into download mode through ADB using at least one of the methods in these forums - I know there are driver and other issues with some computers which has made it difficult but if you can access a couple of different computers you should be able to get it to work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthenry87:
We can install custom boot screens on the vibrant? I mean, I knew it might be possible but I hadn't heard if anyone doing that yet. My vibrant has the bionix rom with the custom boot down screen and the robot voice in the boot up. I suppose if the robot voice still pays while your phone unsuccessfully boots up you're screwed lol.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl0play:
Vibrant9 has a custom boot screen with an oval samsung logo, and others use the stock i9000 boot animation.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthenry87:
Hrmm so it seems that if you are still using the stock rom you're alright (if it's bricked) but if you flashed any other rom you might get charged the restocking fee. Who knows maybe they won't notice the difference lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FRuiTBoOT:
Just download the Android SDK and use the command prompt to boot into Download mode

adb reboot download

and flash with Odin, that's what I did. Worked for me. Had the same issue, its almost impossible to brick this phone. Not unless I'm missing something.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthenry87:
Yup you're missing something. Some vibrants are hardware locked so of you can't boot into android you're sol. For most vibrants it is pretty impossible to brick but not hardware locked vibrants.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjoe1492:
Ya i tried the adb on my computer works fine with my my touch slide, g1, and g2. But its not being recognized for some reason with the vibrant. Its definitely hardware locked so i cant get into recovery or download mode. And ya i flashed a custom rom with a different boot screen and the robot voice plays. I have gotten a restocking fee in the past with the G1, so i know they definitely notice. Im going to call them for the exchange :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] letshaveDEX:
While comparing two Evos with the exact same wallpaper, the wallpapers on Sense ROMs come out much clearer than wallpapers on Cyanogen.

My friend and I think it has to do with the Cooliris 3D gallery. He had both galleries installed on his Sense ROM and he was able to recreate the problem.

I'm surprised I haven't seen any threads up about this, can anyone confirm or help? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
[EVO 4G General] skydeaner:
Maybe it has to do with ADW. Try loading launcher pro on there real quick and see if that helps. I don't notice it in ADW, not trying to rag on the program or anything, just offering ideas.

I haven't had cooliris do that beforeZ?

I have flashed kaoslengendary. This rom will be great. Question is, is there a way to make font sizes on other roms small like legendary? Spare parts etc thanks.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Huntredgo:
Most of the size issues you are referring to are there because the rom was ported from the htc wildfire, which has a lower screen yes than our eris. While I'm not sure if there is a quick did like spare parts for sense based roms, kaos has said that he is working on several known issues w/kaos legendary v18 that include the smaller fonts/images.

Btw, good choice in rom, v18 is boss, but bad choice in forum location ;D

I got my Dell Streak in the U.S and am in t-mobile u.s, when I'm in a call the internet connection cuts off and I can't use the internet, also is their a way to get 3g? I unlocked it via rebel sim btw
[Streak 5 General] homeiss:
Which version of Rebel Simcard do you have? I think the first one they put out (1.1?) had this problem but they claim to have fixed it in version 1.2.

You should just call AT&T tech support and tell them you're trying to use an international simcard, but the Streak says it's locked. Then mention that Dell said that AT&T would be able to give you the unlock code. This is what I did.
[Streak 5 General] Kasaki:
it's the latest 1.2 , am on the phone with ATT as we speak , I closed my account so hopefully they will give me the unlock code.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tryingtofixmyphone:
out of no where one day, i went to use my browser and i got process com.android.browser. any time i try to use browser now i get that and i have tried everything. i really DONT want to do a factory reset, or root. is there anyway someone can send me the stock browser.apk? do you think that will work?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Out of nowhere:confused: Something had to have happened to cause that, or your phone has a serious issue - browser is a system app(?) and since we don't have rw access on the slide there's no way it could have deleted it especially while it's booted and definitely wouldn't if you're not rooted also.

Do a full reboot, power it off and power it back on, it should be ok. If that doesn't work, think back to the past few days prior to this, what have you done or installed?

Yet another example of why you should be rooted - nandroid:rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tryingtofixmyphone:
its been like this for a month its been restarted many a time =/ the last thing i was doing on it was watching youtube videos on the browser but using the streaming video player rather than the utube app i was listening to white noise music to fall asleep. then when i woke up thats when it stopped working
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Well I'm not sure if it's possible (or allowed) but I'll try to pull the browser.apk off my phone and post it on here for you. Hopefully it's not odex(ed), if it is that creates an issue for a non rooted phone.

MODS: If I'm not allowed to post it then just delete it once it's up or let me know before I do.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
OK, here's the browser file. Just load it to your sdcard and use a file explorer to install it or an apk installer. I would reboot after you do it, hopefully it will work but it's a shot in the dark since I doubt it will install in the normal ./system/app/ directory. If it even installs, it will probably go to the ./system/data/ directory (just in case you ever need to find it or remove it).

BTW, this is the browser from froyo/Team Fenix 2.0, might not work if there's any difference in the browser. If not, go to this thread download the file, unzip it, and look for 'system' > 'app' and then find the browser.apk. Put it on your sdcard and install it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tryingtofixmyphone:
ok first way didnt work. second way i unzip the file and its .img files what do i use to open those?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Wow, I just realized that I posted the link for a stock nandroid backup:eek: - not at all what you need. I'll post the link to slidemeroot, it's a stock rom (not nandroid backup) and I'll upload the broswer from that in this post.

The browser on the stock rom is odex'ed, there may not be a way to install it without rooting but give it a shot. If all else fails and you don't want to root you'll just have to install a different browser from the market like dolphin or opera.

OK, uploaded the borwser.odex file (unzip it after you download it). Here are the commands to [hopefully] get it to work that you need to run through command prompt. You should just be able to copy and paste the adb commands one at a time. You'll have to get adb to catch your phone in recovery mode in order to do this since you'll be writing to the system so be prepared for a headache since your doing this without rooting and flashing an eng build, but if it works you'll be happy you did it:cool:

adb remount
adb push browser.apk /system/app/browser.apk
adb push browser.odex /system/app/browser.odex

You'll need to make sure the files are in your android sdk tools directory and you 'cd' to it. If you have no idea what I'm talking about check the slide rom bible thread and look at one of the links about rooting - you'll understand :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] migueltherocker:
That won't work. You can't have the same app installed in both /system and /data.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
So he would have to get in to recovery and delete the original browser apk from /system/app then re-install it and the odex file? The browser should be in the sysyem/app directory from the factory right? The /data/ dir. is for custom installed apps.

The easier way would be to uninstall the browser apk and odex file from /system/ and just install the first browser apk I posted which will install to the /data/ dir.

Can that even be done through adb without root? Or is the a way to 'sudo' with android like you do with ubuntu?

Look on HD2 LEO area

I found a link that had a combo that flashed Chukky on the winmo side and installed Froyo2.2 on the sd It works without errors. There is one thing that is quirky about it you have to load every time you turn on the phone into winmo then there is a android icon and you restart to android. Otherwise, when it goes into sleep mode the phone won't wake up. The other thing I found was that the flash can get corrupted if you run the battery dead. FYI. I am trying to remember exactly how I found the flash.. I think I got directed to a link that was Chukkys actual site and then from there I found the link that provided the Android. hope that helps...
