[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
do you remember if the USB debug mode is enabled or disabled?

if it's enabled, then you can let it boot and do the

adb reboot recovery

or

adb reboot download

if that doesn't work the only way to fix is to send it back to the store for repair
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bigc_13:
If it goes to the Logo screen, then when it goes black if the back and home buttons still light up your internal sd card has crashed and you need to send it in for repair at bell
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xZeDgEx:
This. Been there, done that, wrote the book. Me and my buddy. Stock too.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] slaman:
It's bricked... internal SD is fried.

To confirm, if you can get into Upload Mode, flash a 2.2 ROM, which will give you the ability to get into Recovery mode... once in recovery mode, it will show you the Internal SD error that I'm talking about...

Take it back to the store before your 30 days are up - no use trying to waste time fixing it...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] solipsism:
Happened to me as well. I was on my 10th+ firmware flash. Went to JPD or whichever 2.2 came right after JPC. I install RyanZa's OCLF and within one hour it crashed and wouldn't boot.

I was able to run JM8 or any 2.1 Firmware but without Internal SD. I was just running off the internal 2gb partition that it created off the external SD when it can't find the internal SD. Thats why when the internal SD is corrupt, the phone won't boot into android without the external SD installed.

In the end it was 2 days before my 30day replacement, so I took it to bell and had it replaced.

Running stock update 1 for bell (JH2) with Voodoo 4 on current replacement.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kendren:
Hey, I also have this problem. I originally bought it semi bricked. The phone was not even showing the boot screen, but I managed to flash so now it does the above.

What are mu options here. Im not a Bell Client so they won't give me a replacement. I'd prefer not to spend money sending it in, but will if i have to. But i doubt that bell would take it in even if I did pay because im not their customer...Telus obviously doesn't support the Galaxy so I can't go to them either.

How were you able to get it running off your memory card? I don't mind doing that actually!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Shine.:
I had this happen to me once before and and i did a factory reset and i worked perfectly! and now its happened again and i believe my internal sd is fried! kinda really sucks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] FuryriderX:
Call samsung direct.

1-888-751-4078 (i'm assuming your in canada) and send it in.
[Legend Themes and Apps] doubletakeit:
Could anyone please upload all of the stock apps from /system/apps (.apk and .odex)?

Thanks so much !!! :)
[Legend Themes and Apps] TheGrammarFreak:
Why?

Also, you can go find them in a stock rom. If you download one of the rooted stock roms, found here in the dev section, then just open the zip you can find 'em

:D
[Legend Themes and Apps] BlaY0:
Yes, those files were uploaded to all the internets like 346745871 times and more :rolleyes:
[Legend Themes and Apps] curto:
so....... where is this "dev section" :)
[Legend Themes and Apps] TheGrammarFreak:
Where all the custom ROMs are

Swyped from my HTC Legend
[Legend Themes and Apps] curto:
Oh right haha duh. thanks. I thought there might had been some secret hidden area i missed with all these stock rooted roms
[Desire General] subharmonic:
Ok - as some people will know, TMob pushed the OTA in September.

Initially things seemed ok, but people spotted those pesky german apps that came down as well, so alarm bells started ringing.

For me anyway, the Market doesn't work as it should either - there are quite a few apps I've paid for which now don't show up on the market.

Also (and I'm not sure if this was OTA related) my gmail contacts went to crap, so I ended up doing a factory reset.

I think there may be other foibles that have come over by having the german version installed - never mind the space taken up by those useless apps.

So, the question I have is this - what have people managed to do about it, other than doing the usual debrand, or root solutions.

Has anyone contacted T Mobile yet to see what they have to say about it?

It's a real pain in the ass. I should probably debrand and be done with it, but I don't really want to lose my warranty, just in case...
[Desire General] hamdir:
man debrand and root, install a pre-rooted 2.10 add a2sd+ and UVOC v3 kernel and you won't look behind
[Desire General] subharmonic:
I use, a lot, the wifi hotspot, and usb tether option.

2.1 doesn't have these does it?
[Desire General] hamdir:
i meant the official HTC WWE firmware numbered 2.10, its the second and latest WWE stock froyo release (the first was 2.09)

i had t-mobile desire myself and i've debranded it, just make sure you always have a goldcard when you debrand and update
[Desire General] subharmonic:
hamdir - where can I get this?

Shipped Roms doesn't appear to list it...
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Yes they do...

http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe

You'll need a gold card to flash it, though
[Desire General] subharmonic:
Ok - not sure how I missed that then.

I had actually started prepping my phone for doing a debrand, so my sim is already goldcarded I think. (ie I used the goldcard utility etc, and the program said it had created.) That said though, I didn't format the card first before going through the routine of creating the goldcard - should I have done?

I figured the card is already formatted, as it's an 8gb card - ie not a stock microsd, so in order to use it initially, I would have had to have formatted it anyway.

How do I get the kernel and radio then?

Are they part of the Rom you've posted?
[Desire General] subharmonic:
So, will I have problems with this goldcard?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Archer:
This was posted in the HD2 ROM section, but I thought it deserved a link in here as well, as explained after the link...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=801252

I flashed the latest HTC ROM yesterday and it comes with that radio. After a quick play with it I went back to Android and carried on using the phone as normal.

I've never had particularly good or bad battery life while using Android - it's just been ok. But last night was totally different. I was using wifi to surf and download apps from the market, and I played quite a lot of games. In total, I used the phone heavily for about 5 hours and only used 30% of the battery.

This may just be me, but that radio really seems to have made a massive difference. I just wanted to point it out so that anyone who has battery life issues may be able to improve their situation.

Hope this helps some of you :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] deadey3:

wow another new radio, downloading now will report back later :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LK89:
Hi people,

I'm new to this forum and this is my first thread..

Here is my situation, i just recently bought a Captivate through ebay and its locked.. I will try to find the unlock code using the method in this forum.. after i unlock it, i think i would love to update the android os to 2.2..

will any of this process have the slightly chance of bricking my Captivate?:confused:

i will not try to root my Captivate yet coz of the possibility of bricking it..

I will wait until there are solutions to this bricking thing, or when i feel bored i might try this.. ^_^

also, if you guys are kind enough, i would love to know what all kind of things that will brick a Captivate..

Thanks..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJO2:
I am no expert but XDA helped me with my first smartphone (Palm Treo 750 bought on ebay) and I did everything without any problem. You need to read much until you understand everything clearly and always follow the instructions step by step because these guys know their stuff. Currently buy a Captivate. I love this phone. Already rooted and Im to upgrade FroYo without fear because if it becomes a brick I know that here finds it solution. Good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.dude.abides:
got to read

Yep, that's the key. Read, read, read, and then you will have to read some more! I'm new to the board also, and this is my first smartphone. I've spent the past month reading threads in the development section when I have the chance (which is not very often...) and there is still a LOT of reading and learning I need to do!

Don't forget to use the search, which might or might not help. Honestly the biggest help is to read all the posts in all the threads - which will take a while!!

Lot's of great help on this board. I'm pretty close to feeling up to speed enough to cook this thing without fear of bricking...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRd1st:
I would wait a while before you do anything like installing the JI6 Froyo ROM. From what I've read, you have more chance of bricking your Cappy during that process than by doing anything else.

BTW, by just rooting or unlocking your unit you have very little chance of bricking your phone. It's what you can do after you root your phone that can cause it to brick. lol

Like the above poster said; "READ, READ, READ" and then when you decide you want to do something, read some more. I've been reading these forums since before August 15 when I got my captivate, and I STILL haven't done anything like rooting because I'm staying "stock" until the official froyo update is released.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LK89:
Thanks for the nice reply guys.. and yes, i will keep on reading through this forum..

btw, from what i understand, rooting will enable your phone to install android apps from worldwide market right? does it safe? i mean, i heard that someone bricked their phone while installing some apps.. :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dungeon47:
If you are interested in side-loading apps, try the Android Sideload Wonder Machine (it's called something like that). It works well for me. I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but it is useful to know.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
once you are rooted, you would still have to enable market access (for apps outside your att restricted market)

i would like to see how installing an app bricked a phone.....i call shens.

rooting is easy, and just by rooting your phone you wont brick it. you would actually have to do something to harm it. even then, its all recoverable via ODIN.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LK89:
Sorry for a noob question.. but, what is JI6? ^_^
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jokerier:
JI6 is the version of froyo (android 2.2). Go on the phone to settings-> about phone-> it's in the baseband version. Mine is I897UCJI6 (froyo).
[Windows Phone 7 General] domii:
HTC just released a new series of Windows® Phone 7 featured phones. The new line up consists of a 5 new phones all featuring the all new Windows® Phone 7 OS, the new phones shares a very close hardware specification with some minor differences like screen size or ROM/RAM amount.

The new range of phones introduced by HTC is not to be marketed based of their hardware specification or abilities because since they actually shares a lot of specs. It’s suggested that it will be aiming customers need, habits & usage when it comes to marketing the new phone.

For instance the HTC 7 Surround is supposed to be the best when it comes to mobile media specially watching movies thanks to its huge speaker and the integrated Dolby mobile and SRS surround sound and so on for the rest of the new phones.

[Desire Themes and Apps] doubletakeit:

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] avs333:
I wrote this program because I was unable to find a good app capable of recording the other side of the call properly.

Except for AirVoice, all such apps record the speaker rather than the line, and you barely hear the other side in the recordings.

The guy who wrote AirVoice knew the trick but seemed to be very annoyed by the negative feedback from Android Market, where the users of various devices (with the list of supported ones clearly stated!) tried to install that program. Because it wasn't open source, I had to disassemble it in order to write what I wanted exactly.

So the app uses an esoteric HTC driver, and NEEDS THE ROOT ACCESS just to open the device. If you do "adb shell chmod 666 '/dev/voc*' ", it'll never ask you for root access (but you have to be ROOT to execute that command).

It writes the calls in either WAV (recommended) or MP3 format (not tested much; needs some time to encode the file after the call, but the size is about 4 times smaller), stereo (left ear is your voice, right is that of the other party), to "/sdcard/voix" directory.

The kernel driver itself is kinda buggy. Actually, the auto-answer mode is non-functional for kendon's & ninpo's kernels (others not tested). Do NOT select it in Settings unless you've got such ROM and particularly need to reboot your phone on each incoming call :). It'd be nice if somebody try to fix that.

If you select "Ask each time" for any incoming calls, be sure to wait half a mo until the confirmation dialog appears. The "Foreground service" (default) setting is also recommended because Android may otherwise kill it if memory is low.

Any comments are welcome. I'm not sure that I'll ever add something to this program because I'm too lazy for that, but any bugs will reasonably be fixed. The code is open source, PM me if you're a programmer and have any ideas how to improve it.

=======================

NOV 24 UPDATE

Numerous improvements/corrections/bugfixes (I'm not removing the previous version as this one haven't been much tested).

Just tried this, works great on my Hero (Vanilla Eclair 4.0). Thank you very much for this one!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jokuvuan:
Interesting software. Could you possibly add a new feature: The app saves all calls, but deletes them, if you don't move them to another folder/to your PC.

This because I could record all of my calls, without the risk of making a huge 1Gt folder to fill up my memory. So if the user could choose how many recent calls (2,5,10) the app saves before deleting them I'd be great!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] lmerega:
What about battery draining?

This great app is also tiny enough not to reduce drastically battery duration?

TIA
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] JakeWharton:
I'd love to see this generalized to not require the HTC driver. Do you think that would be possible?

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Skrypt:

Can you enable recording mid call?

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MercuryTangent:
Awesome idea, I've been looking for exactly this sort of software.

I'm having a bug I hope someone can help me with. When I start the program I get a prompt that says "Device does not exist, or its permissions cannot be changed." When I click "OK" it takes me to the screen to uninstall the program.

I'm running an Evo, fully rooted, NAND unlocked, running Virus Airbourne ROM and King #11 kernel.

I never get the prompt from the SuperUser app to give the app root access.

I tried the adb command but it gave me the error:

Unable to chmod dev/voc*: No such file or directory

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] bemymonkey:
Am I right to assume that this is a HTC Hero exclusive?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MercuryTangent:
Likely so, but I'm hoping the dev will extend it or I can find a way to make it work :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] raynerape:
This is amazing app. The only thing I would beg the author to consider a white status bar icon for normal running service as colored icons there usually break the aestetics of Android UI. The icon can change or become colored while recording, but when only running in the background it should remain white.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adevem:
things like 2mr and tmr.

hell, I don't use short forms. is there anyway I can load up Swype with STANDARD ENGLISH WORDS. then I'll add shortform/alien languages that I type manually.

like why would I want the word "berti" in my Swype's dictionary. I don't even have any friends named that! once I have bull**** words like nnniiinnnaaa and eeeeeee? what the ****, lol. I've never added those words.

of course, I can remove them but it's a pain in the butt(if some words can even be removed).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewluecke:
Are you using a ROM from Samfirmware? Because it's possible that someone else added them before uploading the rom. ..

SPB are selling there Home Launcher still on Ovi store for Nokia for around £15 i think, so i suspect that they will be charging quite a lot for it on android too, to be honest i get more or less the same thing with Open Home.

Am looking forward to trying out Launcher Pro when we get our update :)

Thanks in advance

Only...

As far as I know only if you have the software installed, and yes it has to be on and the GPS has to be enabled. Some software will even turn that stuff on with a text message.
