When I open QPST Config it reconizes my Hero as "Unknown" not "Surf" or whatever it is. When I open service programming it says "Online connection failure: Unspecified error". What am I doing wrong? I have all the drivers installed. Thanks in advance :)

QPST

If you are using a Custom Rom that is froyo there is your problem, if you are using a Sense Based Rom with 2.1 do, ##3424# wait until the diagnostic screen shows, then connect, and use QPST config to add phone, then do service programming.

Problem solved! I was running a old version of QPST.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jele:
I have a myTouch3G (32B) - I think I rooted it successfully - I got the ROM to install the newest one 6.0.0 (Android 2.2) and its running fine, however I can't get my Google Apps back. I got the zip file as "gapps.zip" on my sd card so that I can just get into recovery and hit Flash from zip "gapps.zip" like I did for installing the ROM, but I CANT get into the recovery mode anymore. I hold "HOME" and "POWER" just like I normally did and all it does is show the slash screen and it says "FASTBOOT" on the top in red, I cannot get to recovery mode anymore! Can anyone help? I just want the market back...OR try to go back to 1.6 and just say f**k it with all these custom roms :(

You Are lucky to have made it that far. Can't get the gold card to work for me, so i am stuck on 1.6, but a lot of the apps that i want to use need root-or 2.0+.

man thanks alot for your help, but im really a noob.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCinToronto:
Ouch. I hope you can laugh about this one day. I'm sure you'll have root again.

Have you ever heard the term "curiosity kills the cat".

You knew enough to get root, revert to stock so that you could apply 2.2.1, to discover the hard way that the .1 was mainly, if nothing more than a security patch locking out root. And now need coles notes for above. Sorry, that'll be funny after you have root again.

In the meantime, I hope you find solace in paving the road for future noobs starting new from 2.2.1.

Anyway, the majority of the guide above are sequences while in ADB. You had to use some adb to get

root the first time. Google and do a little research on the subject. You need to polish up as I think the warnings above about "don't do anything until", are warnings to avoid bricking. If this procedure is that risky then your ounce of comprehension is worth a ton of hand holding.

Looks like you don't have the rageagainstthecage binary on your phone.

Doing 'adb shell ls -l /data/local/tmp' on your computer should get you something like this:

-rwxrwxrwx shell shell 5392 2010-08-25 01:42 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
-rwxr-xr-x shell shell 1926944 2010-03-22 20:29 busybox

-rwxrwxrwx shell shell 27688 2010-07-22 10:19 Superuser.apk

There might be some other files in there; it's these that matter. If you don't see them then do all the 'adb push' and 'adb shell chmod' stuff in the previously linked instructions.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junooni.1980:
what is Doing 'adb shell ls ((-l /data/local/tmp' ))on your computer should get you something like this: i meant what is -I??
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
If you can't follow these instrucstions, you should NOT be rooting anyhow, since you obviously have NO IDEA what you are doing.

1) Get rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin

http://stealth.openwall.net/xSports/RageAgainstTheCage.tgz

2) Get Superuser.apk, busybox,su

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1327667/freenexus.zip

3) Get the Android SDK (ADB)

http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r07-windows.zip

4a) Unzip android SDK (e.g. so that the tools folder is F:\ADB\)

4b) connect Nexus One with with "applications=>development=>USB debug enabled" (and install USB driver if necessary)

5) Unzip/unrar files within RageAgainstTheCage.tgz to F:\ADB\

6) Unzip/unrar files within freenexus.zip to F:\ADB\

7) Open command prompt go to F:\ADB

[7b) Verify that your nexus one is connected and responding - type "adb devices" it should list your N1

8) Now within the command prompt do the following (commands in bold - the rest gives you an indication of the results)

(Note: if you get $ instead of #, just go back and repeat the instructions from where it says $ ./rageagainstthecage. Worked like a charm on the second try for me.)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junooni.1980:
Ok perhaps that what i am doing wrong...

so i download android-sdk_r07-windows.zip & unzip it..to a folder F:\ADB.

So i have to create a new folder named ADB and thne unzip all teh stuff in it??

because before i was unzipping the android-sdk_r07-windows.zip & then the folder named android-sdk_r07-windows & i was upzipping freenexus.zip & RageAgainstTheCage.tgz in the tools folder in the android-sdk_r07-windows folder.

So correct me if im wrong instead of android-sdk_r07-windows folder I have to make a new folder named F:\ADB and then unzinp android-sdk_r07-windows.zip & freenexus.zip & RageAgainstTheCage.tgz in teh F;\ADB folder not in the android-sdk_r07-windows tools folder??

Please advise?>?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexusdue:
Sorry this is so basic ... if you don't understand folder structures, you really SHOULD NOT ROOT!

Do NOT do it! Maybe after using computers for a couple of years you can "upgrade" to rooting your phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junooni.1980:
I can admire how you're so annoyed but I guess i gotta suck it up cus It I who is in need.

LOL! i've been using computers for a while now & I do undrestand the folder structure pretty well why would i think that? Cus I was able to root the phone the first time.

It's just that i find the description so confusing, I use windows, dunno what OS are you on? But when you extract a zip file it creates a default folder of the same name so...

But i really don't think that my question was that hard, which shot you over the moon & piss you off and made you tell me to learn basic computing first.

All i asked was If I am suppose to make a separate folder named ADB & if I sould extract every thing in it rather than the default unzipped folder that windows makes. But I guess If you're so annoyed then i'l leave it for some one else, I am quite sure one of the purpose of this forum is to get and give help. And im pretty sure that there will be someone who can help me or perhaps i'll find a way myself. But anyways thanks alot for your time, you've been nothing but great help. LOL! And I mean it...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xculliber:
Android = Unix File Styles.

IDK how you rooted the first time but, I used Universal_Androot but the OTA broke it. I used the method outlined here and in less than 10 minutes I was good - It actually worked the one time I did and I tested it with the N1 Torch.

What the kind fellow is trying to say...you need a basic idea of how to navigate to files from the cmd line....cd <all the way till you get to the tools folder>. My SDK is actually on the desktop. If you copy all the files (after unzipping) to the tools folder in the SDK, then you can just copy and paste the commands like he said above in bold....I run OS X.

Am sorry but the instructions above are the best I have come across....mostly coz they're in bold and I love bold font.

If this fails I guess you just have to wait for a Universal_Androot like .apk to come along, and from what I know 2.2.1 was released to deny such exploits.

PS: Your phone should be on (not in fastboot mode)

So if I held off upgrading stock to 2.2.1 because I didn't want to lose root, is it now cool to let the phone update, then merely run this program to gain root access back? Will I have to redownload any of my root apps like setcpu or move2sd enabler, or will everything still be there?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice3186:
Alright guys one more time

RyanZa's lagfix is really really well built and he put a ridiculous amount of checks into it. It will not work when you have restored with TIBU because undoubtedly some of the apps you installed are set to default install on your sd card. That being said you really cant do the lagfix with them installed because they are actually not on a separate sdcard, just a partition of your sd card that your OS is on as well. That means the OCLF cant unmount the card to copy **** off of it and hence the lagfix will fail with a loop0 error. So if you want to do the lagfix and have all you crap on your phone and dont want to start again, go into your applications menu, tap manage, and the sdcard and then delete all your apps off of it that are there(prob only a few if you havent moved more yourself). After you've deleted those apps reboot phone, run OCLF and then get TIBU to restore missing apps.

DONE AND DONE!

P.S. i am that guy you heard it from......i have posted it like 4 times i think.

P.P.S forgive me if i am coming off short, i am in school and pulled an all nighter studying for tests! Dont mean to be
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
It also won't work just because you restored with TiB. If you did a batch backup and had EVERYTHING restored, well that's just really stupid of you. That restore deleted the newer 2.2 services and files with your old 2.1 services and files. If you then proceed to install the OCLF, you're going to get errors and FC's.

You must start off with a freshly installed, rooted JI6 before you go about installing the lagfix. That way you don't have to worry about where any of your applications get installed to, and there's less data for the OCLF to move around coincidentally speeding up the entire process.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fox945:
I ran OCLF after using the batch restore of my apps with TBu and everything went just fine for me. I guess it was just luck of the draw our something.

Guys, I'm currently on AT&T in the U.S. with a Samsung Captivate. My GPS and random shut downs are giving me major headaches. Not sure if I want to deal with it any more or try to get a replacement, so I was thinking about switching to the X10.

Just wonder if anyone here came from a Captivate and can offer some review of the two phones. Thx.

I like multitouch and super brilliant screen, but a working GPS is more important to me.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruskival:
Personal Opinion

hey dont know about the captivate, as i live in australia but i work in a telco shop and ive played with the galaxy s, and i really think its a great phone but too many issues currently and really lags over time, as for myslef i got the x10 mainly for the camera and stability, as much i the super amoled screen is great, (ive had omnia II i8000) and im over it. id rather a great 8mpx camera and flash on it, nice looking phone although captivate is also great.

but it really comes down to whats important for you like same thing i tell customers, it comes down to the features you looking for, more or less they are very similar phones but a few things here and there is what tis the scale for different people.

i also tell people to play with both see which is more intuitive for YOU. simple as that
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charlyee:
I had the Captivate for a week before switching it out for the x10. Together with the above I found the reception and call quality much better on the x10.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pco.vaz:
Just so you get a full picture, here are the X10 issues:

1) Low incall volume/ring volume. It's loud enough for me but many people complain.

2) Longer waiting times for new android versions. SE made a slick UI for it but that makes you wait a lot for updates. It's running 1.6 and it's stable, 2.1 should be out in October, but if you have a demand for a function that needs 2.2 (ie: flash 10) then get another phone.

3) Battery life when the display is on. When I use it for GPS on the car battery lasts 5/6 hours only so you'll need a car charger. On regular use as a phone and about 30 min internet browsing per day it can last 2/3 days.

4) No multitouch support.

There are no perfect phones, just make sure you understand what you're getting and whether it suits your needs or not.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solo13:
To be honest with you , after 5 months of using the X10 , it is a very good Sony Ericsson's mobile , but not a good Android Device.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] im_iceman:
@solo13 - Why?? I'm not sure I understand why you say it's not a "good" android device??

Is it the OS version? We all know that's going to be 2.1 soon..?? Or is it something else that makes this not a good android phone for you?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solo13:
just have a look at http://www.google.com/phone

and do a comparison between the X10 and any other device .

the main failure is in the RAM and the internal Memory

RAM Is 384MB meanwhile other devices is 500MB (( Android requires at least 200MB))

Internal Memory is 1GB meanwhile other devices has 8GB or 16GB ( Fresh X10 has only 440MB Free) .
