i am on official 2.2 update, and i am rooted. now i want to unroot my phone and put everything all back to the way it was when i first bought my phone. dont ask why, i just want to so who knows how? i completely regret ever rooting my phone in the first place, i just want everything to all go back to normal......
[Droid X General] gunkle:
well you can only go back to 2.2 OTA. You can't get back to 2.1 now that you have the OTA. Go here to restore your system back to fresh OTA state. Not sure if it will still be rooted or not but i think it wont. Can't help if it doesn't get rid of root maybe check out rootzwiki.com and see if they have a way.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] protoadies:
My wife and i had the hero and we both upgradded to the EVO on launch day. Heres what im looking for maybe somebody can point me in the right direction. We gave our phones to the kids 5 and 6 years old. they use it for a video, mp3, and games.... i leave phone in airplane mode to save battery for them. Both phones have 8 gig card class 2, with about 60 games, and 200 mp3, and 5 spongebob videos. The phone runs dog slow. currently CM6. ...... Is there a rom without phone aspect or anyther feature except the the 3 features i need for the kids? Ive overclocked phone, started over with fresh clean install. erased everything the phone still runs like a dog.... I tried deleating a few things from cm6 having to do with phone aspect as i don't need the kids accidently calling 911 but i get fc constantly any advice is appreciated.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldc2335:

Well, it's not clear to me on your post, but when I use the stock music player, it seriously bogs down my phone. I installed the cubed player...search "rockon" I think or "³", and it doesn't bog down my phone. I can't really speak towards games or videos, the only game I have is papijump.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PizzaAmerican23:
I cracked the screen on my last captivate, which had no problems getting into download mode. This phone will not go into download mode. I've tried all button combos, with all the same results. Either looping ATT logo, or the battery charge icon comes up.

Am I SOL? I'm hoping there's a fix for this, either now or coming out in the future. Im the meantime, should i be careful with my phone? I was planning on going from cognition 2.1.4 to 2.2 beta 5.5. Im a little nervous though, knowing i might brick my phone for good.

someone, please tell me there's a fix!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ranatsu:
My first captivate had this problem.. I had to send it back to get a new one.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seahunts:
I am also interested in what the story is with phones with no 3 button recovery and no USB download modes.

I recently purchased one that has the defect. CAL Date is 17th August.

Currently debating if I should send it back for a refund or not. (I am in Australia, and the retailer has informed me that all new phones now have this defect due to it being a deliberate disabling by Samsung. So getting a working replacement from them is out of the question.

Does anyone have a newer Captivate than mine that had USB download mode and 3BR working out of the box?

I am guessing the odds of me finding one of the pre August models with 3BR and USB working are pretty low.

Will there ever be a permanent fix for this? (Not OTA update, not much good for people who are not on the AT&T network)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orimov:
FYI, I bought my phone about a week or two ago via amazon wireless and it was a 7.11.2010 model.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryman27:
It's a hardware issue. So if it's driving you crazy then try to exchange it, but the leaked froyo one-click odin patched it for me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tremere:
Really? You had no 3br before, never did AT&T OTA and got it when you installed Froyo with Odin?

Not sure if I want to use Odin to patch that though, lost one already :mad:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryman27:
yes, yes, and yes
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j1mb34m:
you could see if "adb reboot download" will get it into download mode.

Similar to the other poster, I've also heard that upgrading to 2.2 fixed the "no 3-button download mode" issue. Several people reported it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppau0822:
would this mean that cog beta 5.5 would also fix the 3br issue, since it is built on top of the leaked build?

i dont have 3br and cant get the ota since im in australia
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryman27:
The odin version for sure. I don't know about the clockwork version.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PizzaAmerican23:
I upgraded to cog 5.5 via ROM manager. I still can't get into download mode. Will it make any difference if i flash with odin? And how do i flash with Odin if i can't get into download mode?

If theres no way i could do this on my phone, is it really worth returning/trying to get a different one? If im just extra careful when i change roms, what are the chances of bricking my phone? Would there be any way to fix it after this happens?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattmit1:
My one and only Cappy could never get into dload or recovery mode at all. Rather than return it, I have found workarounds, but they are definitely risky!!

HOWEVER, tonight I have some interesting news... I have found a way to get into recovery mode like this:

1. Start from phone off, then press power+volume up + volume down, and hold.

2. Wait until the 4th AT&T screen comes on, then release the VOLUME buttons, but still hold power.

3. The phone should go into recovery mode.

I tested this several times and it worked every time!

Now I know this is not download mode, but it is a start for those of us who have trouble (or no) 3 button recovery. My point is, maybe there is a different "combo" that will work.... I'm just saying.:)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newter55:
You should be able to get into recovery by simply holding vol up vol down and power until att splash screen comes up first time...

As for not getting into download mode using vol buttons and plugging in usb, ie having to use adb, flashing roms is risky as you may not be able to Odin back to a working phone if something hapoens
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattmit1:
Yes I (and many others) know that vol up+voldn+pwr SHould work, but it doesn't for some of us. I just tried again to be sure.

Yes I know the workarounds are risky, read my post.

I was just saying that if I have found a way to get into recovery with an alternate method of the 3 button deal, then maybe there is an alternate method to get into download mode too.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tremere:
Use adb to reboot into download or recovery. If you are rooted you can just type 'reboot download' into a terminal as well.

ROM manager flashes will not fix the 3br as they do not flash any bootloader blocks.(at least in the current releases)

Does the Odin Cog5.5 restore 3br or just the leaked Froyo?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo_31591:
i just bought my cappy a week back....i just rooted it....the 3 button combo is working for me....if u want i can write down any version or manufactoruing date u want to know....just tell me how to(im a noob)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krl66:
Cog 5.5 didn't fix the 3 button problem for me.

My 3 button access was fixed when I went back to stock 2.1 via 1click odin and then requested the ATT OTA upgrade. It said failure, but my 3 button access worked after that.

After that I used Rom Manager to flash Cog 2.2(don't remember which beta)... lost 3 button access... not sure why. Most threads I've seen on that topic say it shouldn't do that, but it did.

So went back, redid it all, then flashed Cog 5.5 via Odin3... working like a champ now. Easy 3 button recovery and download where I had nada before.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PizzaAmerican23:
goddam really?

What im planning on is one click flashing back to the original firmware, then seeing if it works, then if now ill try jh3, etc until one works.

Sorry if this has already been addressed, but shouldn't this be a firmware issue?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tremere:
Brand new Captivate, no 3br. Flashed Cog 2.2b6 right away with Odin and it was enabled
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrwoofus:
I fought with mine all day yesterday trying every trick I found on the net. I finally just downloaded the SDK and did the "adb reboot download" thing and whammo...fixed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdsatyr:
I had the exact same experience, no 3 button till ota flash, lost it with rom Manager update then bricked the phone.... awaiting replacement now... bottom line be careful if yo donot have the 3 button or vol up/down usb access to download status
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psycada:
Download mode without 3 button nor ADB

Turn phone off.

press and hold both volume buttons

plug into USB cable (mine into computer currently)

starts in download mode every time. upgraded to froyo, still no three button. ADB does work of course, but I thought I'd share another method I found.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PizzaAmerican23:
thats how my first captivate was. I used the same method and it worked everytime. the issue here is no method works.

Im going to try re-flashing and will report back if i can get it to work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
You might have a hardware locked Captivate. I'd recommend exchanging it if you could in hopes that you can get one that isn't HW locked.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaddix2:
what worked for me was flashing I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0.exe and then doing ota update with it failing at 50%. Then i used rom manager to upgrade to cog 2.2 b7 and I still have download and recovery button methods.

this is my first android phone so im not exactly sure why cm is so special?

what will this rom have that boinix or eugene havent given us already?
[Vibrant General] patriot1973:
My first Android was the Mytouch 3G and I used a couple of different ROMS. I've used CM's, Chromatic and SuperD/SuperE and Dwangs. Out of those, I preferred to use Chromatic, followed by CM, then SuperD & E. CM is the only one that has shown full-bore development plans for the Vibrant, although I would love to see a Chromatic version down the road. I retired my MT3G on Chromatic 4.5 (Froyo). Being what it is, I will take CM over the current crop since I have experience using his. This is just my opinion, but CM is pretty much at the top of the field in development. I'm sure others might disagree, as we all have our favorites.

[Vibrant General] natecglenn:
Ive ben in android since the g1 and I've had like 9 different android phones. Cyanogen is like the michael jordan of the modding community. He always has the most anticipated releases. He has three newest and greatest features. He got so popular that people wanted his roms on there phones so that's why here is working on other phone models. But there are alot of great devs out who are doing a great job now too but cyanogen is just the most popular.
[Vibrant General] TRF-Inferno:
They're getting there.
[Vibrant General] patriot1973:
Exciting stuff!
[Vibrant General] smashpunks:
Eugene and bionix will be just as good I'd not better.... Bionix and eugene are about as good as they get....
[Vibrant General] SkOrPn:
Not to mention that both eugene and sombionix can use CM6.1 to cook their own flavors, once cyanogen posts his source. Right?
[Vibrant General] Master™:
Pretty Sure
[Vibrant General] RobBull69:
oops, wrong thread
[Vibrant General] Gr8gorilla:
The biggest difference between Bionix and Eugene, and CM is that the CM guys are building their rom from scratch, using AOSP source code they are getting it working on Various systems. Similar to what to what the manufacturer did originally.

Bionix is taking modifying the work that Eugene and Samsung did. He is doing more "finishing" work. The stuff that is done right before a release.

The other guys are doing more low-level code stuff.

All of it is hard work, so I am not trying to belittle anyone who does this stuff for us.

I am just trying to simply explain the differences. On a Dev team in the world, there are many people working on projects and each one has his or her part in that project. The project couldn't exist without each person playing their role.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xoltrix2000:
I can't seem to find a way to do this on the forums, because I'd like to install Darktremers version of App2Ext instead.

You're help is appreciated.

-Havoc

(Currently running MIUI 9.30.0, and it comes with A2SD+ already installed.)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Apps2EXT can't be uninstalled.

What you have in ROM is a flavor of Darktremor anyway, most probably.

It's not an active app, thus once it works - there's no reason to touch it.

I believe it can be easily upgraded, just install over the old one.

Uninstall = complete wipe.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T.Els:
After a bit of trouble I got the new JI6 update installed on my vibrant. One of the "lovely" changes included was apparently "better" exchange support. By better I guess they mean that I now have to put up with a rather annoying and completely unwanted need to include a password to access my phone after it has been asleep for a bit. I quite simply do not want this. Yes I understand its for security etc, but no I do not want this simply because I need to connect to an exchange server. Does anyone know a way around using this feature?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T.Els:
Would it be possible to use the mail app from stock? If so, how?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
I know this isn't what you want to hear, but just to make things clear -- The improvement was the fact that the email client more fully supports the ActiveSync protocol. The password requirement wasn't supported before, and is now. And the actual requirement comes from your Exchange provider. Ask them if they'll let you use Exchange without a password. Odds are they'll say no. But still, if they agree -- they can remove the requirement for you. :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrioid_newb:
If it is not possible to disable the password all together is there a way to change it? I have been finding it very annoying to have to enter a password every 15 minutes or so, so if it can't be disabled, is it possible to change it to something else (ie 1111)? Would installing an earlier version of the email.apk work? If so, where could I find that?

Thanks...
[G2 and Desire Z General] sn00ch:
Must have temp root...

I found that the 2.0.5.pre8 works got the G2! It's a bit slow because it seems to start and stop randomly, but it works.

If you google android-wifi-tether then go to downloads link, download the wireless_tether_2_0_5-pre8.apk

I can't post links as a n00b sorry.

I'm going to keep going down the list, 1 by 1, and test them all.

I'll report anything interesting.

sn00ch
[G2 and Desire Z General] mtl171:
stupid question but why did you try 2.0.5.pre8 no pre9?
[G2 and Desire Z General] sn00ch:
I should have stated that I tried the newest experimental release, but it didn't work at all. In fact, Windows 7 said it couldn't connect. Ubuntu 10.4 never reported any problem, yet it never connected. My phone never buzzed saying that anyone connected with 9.

On pre8, however, I saw my computers connecting with IP addresses, and internet access!

sn00ch
[G2 and Desire Z General] acis:
doesn't work here.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sn00ch:
I'm back to pre8. Nothing else worked as good or didn't work at all. Back to my original post to use pre8. This time I figured out a way for a FULL SPEED CONNECTION!

Ok, here is a reproduction of what I did to get it to work.

1) Start Android Tether.

2) Have all your computers connect. For me it was ubuntu 10.4, and windows 7.

3)Tell windows to keep the connect automatically in the little network connection tray icon bottom right.. If Ubuntu tries to connect to some other active connection, disable it (right click on the little wifi signal default installed on top right menu bar), and immediately proceed to the next step as fast as you can before Ubuntu tries a known working connection again.

4) STOP wifi tether.

5) Enable wifi tether.

6) BAM both of my computers connected with blazing fast speeds.

Please someone confirm this...

Why don't you use apps2ext so they go on an ext partition? Froyo apps2sd kinda sucks IMO, makes things slower to mount, more problems with apps not showing up after a reboot, breaks widgets, only moves part of the space used for an application, etc..

And wouldn't this be a better question on the Modoco forum? Maybe I'm wrong ;)

what android version are u using and where did you get it from ?

i am searching this topic for weeks now and can't find a solution on how to copy a working android port on my touch diamond.

seems there is no such webpage and i can't find a forum post that just tells me "here is the most up to date and best android version for touch diamond in a zip file, just copy this to your htc root folder and you're done."

gets me sick.

same with win7 ports. can't find a serious thread for this topic with a simple post like : here is the actual port.. this runs, that doesnt, copy the zip to your root and run the .cab file.

is it really so difficult for people to just do that instead of writing thousands of forum posts to gather 15 different files, and 10 have to be different to make it work.. it's like hell.

and please.. just use the android market, my gf is doing this all day and it works very good. you can search for free apps in topics and with a free search option and you got ALL android apps available. what do you want even more ?
