[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvgrhl:
First, Gingerbread will run fine on a N1. Second, no matter when you buy a phone in a couple months another one will come out that is even better. The N1 has an awesome modding scene though.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orenmizr:
nobody know that for sure...the minimal requirements may suit the N1 but it may lack the ability to perform certain tasks. we've seen it happen with other phones.

true for most cases. to me nexus is different from others by design. that phone feels right. i really couldn't care less about all these samsungs or motorolas that are out there. and other htc devices seem too big like the desire HD that was mentioned.

basicly, the world need a NEXUS TWO!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tostino:
So you think Google will develop an OS using their development phone, but not all features of the OS will work on the phone they developed it on? I highly doubt that. Google debunked the minimum requirements roomer for Gingerbread, that was nothing but a site trying to get traffic. Do a little thinking on the subject.

If I were getting a new phone soon though, I would wait till the next gen ones come out. I do love my Nexus though!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orenmizr:
the nexus one was a success in regard of telling the world "this is what android can do right now". others did follow and it is biting the market share making other mobile OS look like code accidents.

none the less, why shouldn't gingerbread allow "facetime like" video service for capable devices? the technology for that is in the wild. that is only one example. i am sure there are more features just like that.

at this point, maybe it would be smarter to wait.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvgrhl:
Whether or not Gingerbread includes a facetime like option is irrelevant to how it will run on the N1. Obviously any phone without a front-facing camera will not be able to do something like facetime. Gingerbread itself will run just fine on the N1. Without going into any technical reasons, just think of this. Of all the Android phones out there right now, the top ones are all in the general vicinity of the N1 in performance. If Gingerbread wouldn't run on the N1, then you cut out these phones too which means only as-yet-unreleased phones would run Gingerbread. So on what basis are you questioning it?

You should probably wait though since you don't seem sure about the N1. The only guarantee you can have is that in a few months from now an even better phone will be released. And then a few months from that once again, and repeat... Dual core snapdragons will start finding their way into phones at some point soon. If you're not rushed then just wait and see what comes out.

Great job Shep!!

---Edit--- 10/07/2010, 8:57PM, CST

A few of the guys have taken it on themselves to work through the issues by cooking up a custom I9000 JPK based ROM using JI6 framework, deodexed, etc. Stay posted...

---EDIT--- 10/06/2010, 10:47AM, CST

See page 23, post 224 for my most recent combo try that seemed very stable, other than the occasional TW crash.

---EDIT--- 10/04/2010, 10:25PM, CST

I've decided to bail from this experiment due to:

1) TW crashes;

2) Bluetooth mic issues.

Thanks to everyone that participated and tested. Hopefully, this combo will be possible once final Froyo source codes drop (whenever the hell that will be).

---EDIT--- 10/04/2010

Summary of experience:

- 1st try didn't work for me - could never get the JI6 kernal installed with Odin. Turned out to be a sequencing issue in that I did not have Odin ready to go before plugging in and going in to download mode. Also, had to figure out button combos for DL mode.

- 2nd try seemed to work wonderfully except for a few TW crashes, periodically.

- BT VC work but it seems there is a mic issue

- 3rd & subsequent tries have all resulted in good stability, for the most part, except for the periodic and seemingly random TW crashes.

- Shep (see bottom of pg 7 of this thread) seems to have got a working combo, but has not been back to comment as to whether or not he ever started experiencing TW crashes.

- KCutrer1 in post # 135 (pg 14 of this thread) reiterrates that Shep's method worked for him and has reported back that he has NOT had any TW crashes - so, there seems to be hope.

- DOAlaboratories in post 161 (pg 17 of this thread) indicates an I9000 light ROM is working well for him. I'm gonna give this a try and see how it goes.

I'll continue to update this post with more relevant details...

BTW, props to Pirateghost, DOA, and KC, for sticking with this and testing out various methods and processes. Also, there are props that should go to:

I9000 JPK Root, Lagfix, & Recovery | Aery: http://www.galaxyroot.com/howto-froyo-xxjpk-odin-root-lagfix-recovery-2e/

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

OP

I was able to get my Cappy updated to JPK and then flash over the JI6 kernal. I'm testing it now but it appears to be pretty stable. The auto-rotate issue is no more, nor is the home button - it works properly; testing the other stuff, including bluetooth.
[Captivate Android Development] DOAlaboratories:
any more stable/less buggy/less laggy than ours?
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
Sounds interesting, would you be able to compile an ODIN one click?
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Well, I am a total noob to Android and only have some very remote coding skills (I'm talking 20+ years ago). So, no, I can't do a OC Odin at this point. But, I'm beginning to think that I might be tracking towards becoming an Adroid hacker. :D

So far this combo is very stable. I did have one random reboot during, well, you guessed it, GPS testing. (I really think GPS is doomed on this phone - it's seems offly unlikely that this can be figured out with software mods.)

I haven't tested the music player yet...getting ready to load some MP3's and test that out but call quality and signal are very good, 3G works fine, Bluetooth voice commands work but call quality over my Q1 was poor for the person I called - he said he could hardly hear me; like I was in a tunel; I could hear him fine though.

There is little lag, if any, and as far as I'm concerned, it's perfectly fine for me. We'll see how that holds up though. Since this does have the BT VC working, I'm going to stay on this combo as long as music works too.

I'll post my method of getting to this combo in a bit.

--Edit--

OK, so I tried music and it plays through the phone's speaker very nicely - no issues. I also use a Bluetooth FM transmitter in my car and it sounded pretty good. It does seem to be a bit less clear than when playing on 2.1, but it's acceptable for now. Besides, I will likely get rid of the BT FM trans in favor of one that plugs in to the headset jack so as to free up BT for my headset.
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
I wish someone would make a thread on how to make our own ODIN one click files - would be useful for this as I would like to try out the I9000 Rom
[Captivate Android Development] vinunleaded182:
Please update us on

1. HSUPDA modem. Is it working on AT&T? What download/upload speed do you get.

2. Does the voodoo lagfix work on i9000 with Captivate kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
That would be cool. I'm going to look in to that at some point.

So, here are the steps I followed to get this working:

1) Restored back to JF6 using a OC Odin (but you can use any method that works for you);

2) Started Odin and added PIT, PDA, and CSC (do not use Re-partition);

2a) Removed SIM;

3) Put phone in Download mode;

4) Flashed the files and once complete and just after reboot process started, removed the battery, closed Odin, and removed USB cable;

5) Put phone in download mode again by holding down volume down button and power buttin while re-inserting the battery;

6) Re-started Odin and loaded the JI6Kernal.tar file in PDA slot;

7) Plugged USB cable back in and Odin detected device;

8) Proceeded with flashing JI6Kernal.tar file and allowing normal process of rebooting, etc.

That's it...phone booted up with no issues and I was running JI6 baseband with JPK ROM.

I got the JPK files from the samfirmware.com site; the JI6Kernal file from another thread on this forum, which I have attached to this post.
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
1) Haven't tested yet;

2) Don't know, but I doubt it; seems it would have to be re-worked for this kernal.
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
This ROM combination with the JI6 Kernel worked perfectly?
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
What does the H mean in place of the 3G icon?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:

[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
I am running the JPK I9000 ROM with the JI6 Firmware and that is what it is showing in the top :D

I know it means next to nothing but this combination scores a 1037 in quadrant
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
decided to go this route rather than cognition. glad i did. this is like my i9000 experience on 2.1 .. only better ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
It seems completely stable.

I know to go into download mode with I9000 it's VOL DOWN and POWER then insert USB

How do I go into stock recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
i think thats based on what kernel you are running. since we are running captivate kernel it should be normal
[Captivate Android Development] buddy17:
does the power button work as "enter" while in recovery mode?
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
Okay, I'll try that.

I want to make a Clockwork Mod Recovery so i can further MOD files
[Captivate Android Development] Colton5419:
Im in recovery, it was VOL UP, MENU and POWER

but we dont have an OK button so i cant select anything haha
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Yes, it did for me. I just saw you other post too so i assume you got booted. I've learned that you don't have to drop the battery out after the intial flash to JPK; just let it boot, then power back down and go back in to download mode and then flash the JI6Kernal file.

I also found a way to root, install the OCLF and was able to install TB and restore my apps. It's looking better and better as I go forward.

Only bummer is the friggin BT crap...maybe that's why this leaked Cappy Froyo does not have the BT VC at all...there seems to be issues with mic quality. And, on my Q1, after I tell it to activate voice commands and then give it a command, the confirmation voice I get is very faint (although it confirms your command on screen as well).

I'll post the root method in a few minutes.
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
cool...I didn't know that...makes sense.:)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] chas123:
I have been looking for something to do this. It states that in can convert binary xml files to text, and back again once they have been edited.

1. Description

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

This tool can convert binary XML files used in GRID to plain text XML file,

and save plain text XML to GRID binary format.

2. Dependecies

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

None

3. Usage

--------

Syntax: binXml.exe [options]... source_file

where options are:

[--textxml|-t { file_name }] : Output file as text XML

[--binxml|-b { file_name }] : Output file as binary XML

[--version|-V] : Show version

[--help|-h] : This help

Notes: 1) source_file can be either binary XML or text XML

2) If no output file is given, then source_file is displayed on screen

4. Example

----------

Typical usage of binXml is to read a GRID binary XML file, convert it

to plain text XML, then edit the text XML file and save back the result

to binary XML.

4.0 !!! MAKE A BACKUP OF THE FILE YOU ARE ABOUT TO CHANGE !!!

copy cameras.xml cameras.xml.ORIG

4.1 Convert binary XML to text XML:

binXML.exe --textxml=cameras.txt.xml cameras.xml

4.2 Edit cameras.txt.xml with your favorite text editor

4.1 Convert modified text XML back to binary XML

binXML.exe --binxml=cameras.xml cameras.txt.xml

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manjish:
hi all,

i have a situation here....i bought a tmobile vibrant and got it shipped to me to nepal,the opposite of america in the globe.

and for my unluck i had one of the locked hardware phones.if i wanted to get replacement from samsung ill have to spend around 200$ for the shipping and handling.

and i have followed all the threads talking h/w locked phones and none helped me out

my phone doesnt goes to recovery .

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8158716&postcount=150

this post made me a lot worried as eugene has also reccomended it somewhere.

till now luck has favoured me and i have flashed jac oc/uv v1.1 kernel,franklin tw rom and have changed few of the roms with clockworkmod too without any problems.

but i want to use odin, install ubuntu and do all the crazy stuffs :D:D but the hw lock is killing me.i dont have courage even to install simple things like voodoo kernel and the segemented battery mod.

i do read instructions 10 times before doing anything .

guys suggest me--

if i stick to great roms like bionix or eugens work(too many hehe) ,read posts about kernels before flashing ,and be very careful with my phone while following instructions need i exchange it at the cost of 200$??

and also a noob question.....does this have any chances of getting a fix??i highly doubt it as tmob have already started exchanging it !! eugene?? jac?? kingklix??other great devs i dont know?? anyone working on it??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcontrol:
So you can't get into recovery mode or download mode?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manjish:
yes the only way for me to enter a recovery or download mode is through rom manager or through ADB shell.

no hardware combos can do it for me.ive tried a lot of combination found here in the xda forum. also eugenes method dont work on my phone.

its dated 10-8 behind the battery....guys any hope for me?? will i be safe to flash known things through clockwork or is there still some risk??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwoodworth:
There is always some risk when you're modifying your phone. Even some of the official updates pushed out were bricking phones before they pulled it and notified not to install it.

I'm in the same situation as you, hw locked and I would have to pay to get it replaced. I'm just holding out to see if Samsung pushes any fixes before I mess with it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl0play:
I would avoid doing this if your concerned about the potential cost. TBH, as much as I like this phone, the hardware lock really pisses me off and I would recommend to anyone that cannot find if their phone is locked and replace easily to just get an EVO or wait for the G2. Sad but true.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manjish:
ok thanks....ive already taken the risk to put jac's uv /oc kernel and im happy with franklin tw 3 rom......and i can live with them!!! seriously its great!!

but my question is does installing a linux have any chances of bricking my device??please suggest
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjhart85:
As far as I can tell, it doesn't change any system files & you don't flash anything to your phone, so Linux (I searched for the Ubuntu instructions) shouldn't cause any problems.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manjish:
yeah thanks a lot. now hope to see someone develop a fix for it.....:):)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spangenberg:
BTW I did searched the forums, but didn't find anything

I have a couple of questions about my D-inc (android 2.2) I absolutely loved it, and everything about it, i originally used the unrevoked tool to root (android2.1) awhile ago, and then reverted back to stock and used the update.zip the morning it came out. worked great, i used unrevoked 3 when it came out (before it got pulled for the update), i only then started to notice some weird bugs.

I don't know if it was from the update.zip, unrevoked, or what.

My Gmail wont sync. i delete\archive\reply to a email on my phone and it still shows up online on my computer and vice versa. to relieve new e-mails i have to manually refresh every time. i tried to live with it, but now it is just annoying.

Under settings every time i try and go into accounts and sync it force closes and i cant open it, no matter how many times i reboot, use it in landscape mode (saw this might be a potential fix) and nothing.

Any help? I searched the forums and various android forums, but didn't see anybody with similar problems, no if anybody could point me in the same direction, I would appreciate it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Did you try force stopping Accounts and Sync? Try clearing out your GMail cache too while you're there, that has fixed issues for me in the past.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nbetcher:
Yes, however that is already currently possible, just no one has done the work. I should note however that neither AmonRA or CW are ready to be flashed on our device because there are outstanding issues. Issue for AmonRA is that it's too large to fit in our recovery partition. CW has some kind of menu bug where the screen just goes black whenever you go into a menu item.

I'm going to work with Koush (author of CW) when he's back from the Android BBQ in Texas. I'll have to track down AmonRA sometime as well. Hopefully I can have these both ready for when S-OFF is released.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
The second sentence really says it all. Some of the limitations as to what can be flashed are due to the S-ON flag. With it set to off, the phone will not check for proper signatures, allowing you to flash willy nilly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] heybobitsme:
And, as far as my understanding from my G1, be able to write to /system while Android is running and not in recovery through adb which we currently have to do. Meaning we can run scripts and flash images on the fly. Correct?

On a related note, I'm so jealous of nbetcher and ChiefzReloaded for having s-off right now! LMAO!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nbetcher:
Just to clarify: Chiefz.Reloaded doesn't have S-OFF. In fact I don't even have S-OFF at the moment because the ENG hboot that I have is VERY buggy and does NOT work with Android well (causes acore to crash, amongst many other things). I had to revert to S-ON. We are working on fixing all of this for release - there will be no release with an ENG hboot, so rest assured your phone will work properly.

As you can imagine the general process for S-OFF has not been released to the public openly. Unrevoked has informed the public as to why this is. Consequently it's a small group involved in the process.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] heybobitsme:
I gotcha. I was under the impression that because you were working on it, you had it.:o Nevermind then, I'm no longer jealous. ;)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nbetcher:
I do have it, but I undid it pending a better hboot. ;)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ChiefzReloaded:
FUUUUU.... ;) And no, the eng hboot is different... We didnt flash an eng hboot... We downgraded recovery to a version that accepted test keys, so our update.zip recovery could be run. We didn't touch the hboot partition at all. If we had been able to touch that partition, we would have already done S-Off months ago... CR
