I am not able to get ODIN or Kies to recognize the device. I am able to use adb to reboot into recovery or clockwork. I have tried going into Download Mode while ODIN was started and also I have tried before I started ODIN .... same result. Please Help ... I thank you in advance :eek::eek:

Have you installed the drivers on your computer?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turtleman13:
the drivers have been installed.

although it doesn't install the driver for the Samsung Android USB Modem

but they must work because i am able to use adb

anybody got any advice for me?

I've searched the forums and tried everything they say to try to no avail.

Any sense of direction would be appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chamunks:
I need to find a firmware for my bell I9000 (from what I've read its the I9000m), I've tried a whole whack of different flashes but none of them seem to get the data network running.

Flash works great on the September release of froyo just I cannot find any way to get my 3g network back and working again I dont really care if I'm running froyo anymore or not but it would be nice.

Basically any ideas would be fantastic thanks for your time and attention.

I dont get download mode anymore I don't know what happened but my phone had it to begin with. But either way I'm comfortable enough with command line so "adb reboot download" is fine with me, as long as it keeps working.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
just go into the service menu an enable the bands that you want to use in the phone

the drivers are there already

all you need is to create the APN again

look at the stick about missing 850 band
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chamunks:
apparently it doesn't matter as my phone wont boot now.

My phone decided this morning to bug out and all the apps force closed on me than decided that it only wants to flash the i9000 boot screen, no animation it just keeps getting to the point where the capcative buttons light up than poof, black screen again than reboot, rinse repeat.

I was wondering if anyone knew of a bluetooth adapter of sorts that would connect to your head units aux jack, that way you could hide the ... (unit?)

And listen to music wirelessly in your car and also be able to glove box your phone so not to use it while driving...

Ideas?

I highly recommend the Kensington LiquidAux. Works great.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Yellowfrizbee:
I second that recommendation. It plugs into your car outlet, and then has a cord that plugs directly into your aux so it gets great music quality. Essentially it adds bluetooth support to those of us whose stereos dont have bluetooth.

It also supports answering calls. However, If I remember correctly it forces you to use their built in mic (its built in to the main unit that plugs into the outlet thing.) Sooo the call quality on the callers end wont usually be great.

If even one minor cord is a pet peeve for you, I can direct you to

Here

or

Here

But I cant guarantee their quality as im not familiar with them. A little unrelated, but this is cool too Here

From the website pics, it looks as though you can connect the usb cable underneath cig lighter adapter to charge device?

EDIT: another post was posted in the time it took for me to post.

I really like the third link you provided due to being cheap. I am very annoyed with wires. My first fm transmitter got destroyed cause someone rolled the seat over the wire.

Has anybody here used that ipod shuffle looking unit or recommend something else?

I mean, is there soemthing that's just hands down, better than the rest? Also cheap?

i have an Alpine EX-10 bluetooth kit i got on amazon for about 25 bucks. awesome deal.

http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-eX-10-...TIDK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1286431832&sr=8-2

it lets you connect via bluetooth or direct connect to ipods, and then can connect to your headunit by stereo aux jack or by FM transmitter. the remote will work with android music player controls too, at least it did on my nexus. havent tried on the G2 yet.

also it has a mic for phone calls, and will play phone calls through car speakers, and it syncs with your phone address book instantly.

it comes with a color display. the only downside is that it comes with a TON of wiring. I have a cigarette port in my center console so i was able to put much of the wiring in there, and bury most of the cables under the console where the parking brake and gearbox is.

Will that alpine ex-10 connect to the 2006/2007 alpine units with their in house connector? (The blue or green one)

Sent from my HTC Vision
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] minotauri:
i believe theres only three methods of connection: stereo line-in, fm transmitter, and there's this KWE155B switch box which connects directly into the FM antenna on your headunit.

here's the alpine official info page: http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/ex-10/
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
Unfortunately, those two things rarely go together.

The Kensington device I can surely recommend, and I think it's only $19 on buy.com. You really can't beat that price. I might buy another one for my girl's car, while I'm thinking about it.

I only have the one wire tucked behind the dash and plugged into the aux adaptor for the factory Ford stereo. The mic works surprising well for hands-free phone use, even with it way over to the right and kinda low where I have it.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] philosophics:
That's a drag. I was hoping to utilize said connection.

Thank you for the idea but I can just see now how well it's gonna go lookin for that remote.

Still lookin at that iPod shuffle lookin unit...

Sent from my HTC Vision
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Yellowfrizbee:
Yeah, plus I can see it being useful for two different situations.

1) Clip it onto your shirt and you can keep your phone in your pocket while listening to your music and controlling your music without ever taking your phone out of your pocket. Good for jogging etc.

2) Car usage. It has a 3.5mm jack. So im thinkin' we can plug the aux into it and then connect our phones via blue tooth. Its not as much of a hassle as you think if you just clip the device somewhere in your car and leave it there.

But then, I still am iffy on how easily id be able to skip tracks. I mean, I guess I could clip it somewhere easy access in my car so I can skip tracks via the device, but I dunno. I kinda liked the Liquid Auxs steering wheel controls *shrugs*

http://www.buy.com/prod/bluetooth-3...er/q/sellerid/18700237/loc/111/211421284.html

I purchased this and should be receiving it this week or next. I'll let you know how it goes. Essentially you will be able to stream music from your phone to your aux input on your head unit via bluetooth. Not sure if this is what you are looking for though.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
I could be wrong, but this looks like a device to stream bluetooth FROM a device that lacks bluetooth output (like an older ipod or discman, etc.).
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] philosophics:
I like the one that attaches to the steering wheel to cause it makes the most logical sense for the car but wires! I can hide them so really not a problem and I can charge the device as well.

I cant't really think of an easy access place to CLIP the iPod shuffle looking unit to even though that's the one that's more convienent.

Now if we can use one or the other with a car dock, this will be a perfect addition and make things very simple!

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
I just bought another of the Kensington LiquidAux for $19.99 with free shipping. Its just too good of a deal to pass up.

I'll either put it in my girl's car (she has my old N1), or sell it for profit! Everyone that gets in my car always asks about it. The steering wheel control is what really makes it work for me. The skip track and play/pause buttons not only work with the stock music app, but other apps like Pandora.

I think buy.com is showing one left in stock...I'm tempted to get it myself.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] arzkkr:
Does the phone button on the remote work for you with the G2? Doesn't seem to do anything when pressed for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] tankmorph:
Works great for me! It actually activates the Voice Dialer app by default. :)

Make sure the bluetooth is paired for Phone AND Media both. You should have two amber lights on the adapter (the part plugged into the lighter) when both are paired properly. They will turn blue when in use. Also, if the remote isn't working at all, I think you can push in the center of the remote for a few seconds to re-pair it with the adapter. I can't remember exactly, but it's in the paperwork that came with the unit.

I hope that works for you. Let me know...
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] arzkkr:
Already checked the pairing (on both mine and wife's setup) and it was correctly paired.

Also, manually initiating the call and switching to bluetooth via the dialer also worked already.

After reading your post though, manually opened the voice dialer (for the first time) and since then it has worked. Maybe voice dialer has to be run once in order for it to associate itself with the bluetooth call button function?

Here's some pics of the kickstand case. mcp2009 also has a video of it in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8445306&postcount=27

i think this case looks pretty nice, surprisingly. i was expecting it to be bulky but it really isnt. the kickstand function is neat.

UPDATE: Don't be like many of us, and forget to remove the "MADE IN CHINA" sticker on the back cover.

UPDATE 2: I purchased the cheapo Lux brand black rubber-like case from amazon and this black case is significantly thinner than the clear kickstand case, in case you are wondering.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] mcp2009:
Lol yay someone mentioned me in a post I feel special. Haha, but yea man the case is great and the kickstand works very well. I like how it's not a cheap clip that turns and makes the phone stand up if you lean it.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Jorsher:
Although I'd much rather have a full, clear Zagg shield that doesn't make the phone any thicker at all, I do like the kickstand. Would make viewing videos at work much easier.

How well does this hold on there? If I dropped it (which I try to avoid), would it pop off and allow the phone to be scratched or do you think it would survive a drop?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] minotauri:
its stuck on the phone pretty good in the back. it took me some effort to remove it when I realized I forgot to take the made in china sticker off.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Jorsher:
Good to hear.

Have mine ordered :)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] thedarkpassenger:
I'm satisfied with this case for the time being. I would REALLY like to go bare, but I can't bring myself to do it. This phone is damn sexy ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Jorsher:
Yep, being sexy is a double-edged sword. I want to keep it naked, but at the same time I don't want it to get a scratch :P
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] k0shi:
yeps just got this case the other day i love it. but yes i have to admit it is pretty difficult to remove. hey btw does this kickstand supposed to lock in place when its out? because i can lock it but im not sure if thats wat its supposed to do or im just pushing it past what its supposed to lol
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] minotauri:
oh, i never even notice that it can "lock" there. looks like that's a feature though i never brought it that far.

and... yes. the phone is sexy. i want to not use a case too but my G1, caseless, looked beat up so badly after much use. :( my nexus with a gel case looked pristine when i sold it last week.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] linkage2424:
Haha! First, I didn't realize it had a kickstand. My girlfriend picked up the case, but I declined. She isn't aware of the kickstand either :p Second, I did the exact same thing as you, minotauri... forgot to take the sticker off the inside for her!

And yes, it is VERY difficult to remove the case. It's on there good.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] isolated_epidemic:
I did the same thing....
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Master Loon:
Lol my sticker is still there too..
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] garyham:
Great Case!

I did the same thing....left the back sticker on...but wasn't that bad removing the case though.

Its attractive and the hard case will protect the phone better than the "skins" if dropped. The kickstand is a definite added plus

That and the Zagg screen protector...a great combination!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Steve.Beanz:
I purchased this case yesterday along with the g2 screen protectors, and the tmobile guy semi warped my phone while trying to remove the case because that damn sticker was left on there when he put it on. Its barely noticeable but I can tell. When the phone is completely closed, the left side wiggles (not the term I am looking for) ever so slightly. But it did not do that before. Wtf.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] minotauri:
LOL - I'm glad many of you also left the sticker on and it wasn't juts me being stupid. :) I guess we're all too excited to keep our new toy protected to remove all the packaging. :) I'll edit the 1st post to tell people to remove it hehe.

That's too bad about your phone. mine doesn't wiggle... maybe you can get an exchange from the same guy who broke it?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ThaGeNeCySt:
How does this case handle the heat when it's being used?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] weber09:
I'm using the slip case that came with my N1. The G2 just barely fits, but its nice and snug but not too hard to remove. As the case stretches a bit, it will become easier to insert and remove.

That case has already saved my nexus from certain disfigurement. I'm glad it will continue to serve me.

I tried flash battery icons and when i boot all i get is a forceclose upon start and i cant get into anything. My phone is un-usable.

I made a backup in clockwork recovery but i cant get there because my phone only forcecloses. When i plug my phone to my computer and type:

Adb devices

Adb reboot recovery

I get the stock recovery and that cant help me, and it didnt.

So i wiped the data and it still forcecloses im completely stuckkkkkk!!!!!

What do i dooo??
[Vibrant General] All~G1:
As long a you're not hardware locked:

-in recovery-

Adb remount

Adb pull /sdcard

-in download mode-

flash JACs stock nandroid via ODIN.

Hey Guys, I love the graphics on the super amoled screen but the jagged text really seems to bother me. Now I can simply zoom in on the browser but this isn't possible when looking at text through widgets on one of my home screens, I heard that voodoo color fixes this to a certain extent, are there any actual screen comparisons (i have already seen the simulated ones from the website) Is there anyway to fix this or no because it is due to the pentile matrix technology that samsung uses in the samoled screen?

Any help would be great.
[Epic 4G General] NeonMonster:
The Voodoo screen fix helps the text to a degree. It looks a bit smoother. But there still is a bit of the "screen door" effect.

There's nothing official about statements on Twitter or Facebook as long as there's no press release to accompany them.

There's a crapload of work that goes into managing a ROM release cycle and decently testing every update, something they might be inclined to do better this time after all the trouble they got from the original release.

Besides, it says 'Expected', not "Will be released on $date and you can quote us on it".
