[Galaxy S I9000 General] INeedYourHelp:
Um why did you flash it in the first place? Blows my mind.

Hopefully someone can help you out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] surgutsoft:
I also accidentally used the firmware I897UCJI6-OCD-... but I did not notice that this firmware Kaptivate and I have a SGH-I9000. After flashing I got a dead phone. When connected to a USB charger or computer - the phone goes off. If you turn on your phone, there is a white screen saver AT & T after which the animation appears SAMSUNG GALAXY S. After 10-15 seconds the vibration of the phone with one long and three short, after about 20 seconds again repeated vibratory signals 1 long and three short and this is repeated ad infinitum! I do not know what to do. It is a pity that Samsung does not care about these issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
And why should samsung care about these issues? You are not supposed to be flashing your phone in the first place. I bricked mine in the same way previously as well and I have nobody to blame but myself
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
Relax seifer, he didn't blame samsung about anything. (edit: just saw the other post you are commenting about, sorry)

liranm I think the download mode for Captivate is different but I am not so sure you can pull it off on the i9000

IIRC the Captivate dl mode needs to have up+down+power

Are you sure you'r rooted? The app should appear on it's own once you are, how did you root?

rooting puts the superuser app on your phone. you did something wrong.

Thanx guys.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
Apologies if this is the wrong forum.

The update notice came through on my phone yesterday afternoon. From reading on here I knew that a number of people were having problems with it. Like a meth addicted crackwhore I couldn't say no.

Before saying yes, I did make a backup.

Here's what I had on my phone beforehand:

Modified swype overlay

Modified battery icon

OCLF 2.1+

GPS fix update

I'd renamed the startup video so it wouldn't show

I'd replaced the startup sound with my own

I think that's all.

I did a nandroid backup before applying the update and even made a copy of the backup just in case.

I undid the lagfix but - perhaps stupidly - left all the other updates in place.

After applying the update my phone was stuck at the vibrant screen right after boot. No amount of waiting - 30 minutes the first time - did any good.

I've been through several rounds of flashing using the second round of steps in this thread but the best that happens is when the phone boots I see the stock home and the media,calendar,(+a few others I can't recall) FC continuously and the home shows a bunch of missing widget boxes.

If I do a nandroid restore I strangely end up with the hung vibrant screen again. It's like it's automatically applying the update or something other odd like that.

I can repartition and flash stock or the updated rom and things are working fine but I'd really rather not lose my data.

It occurred to me this morning that I might have done the backup before removing the lag fix. I'm guessing the backup won't recreate the ext2 partition and that's why things are FC'ing like mad?

I'm going to - probably pointlessly - try to re-flash, install the lag fix and do a restore to see if anything different happens.

If anyone else has a suggestion while I wait for my phone to charge enough to do the lag fix .... little tiny voice... <help?>
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
Well, re-installing oclf 2.1 didnt change the behavior. I've still got a brick after restoring my nandroid backup.

I've gone back to a clean ji6 install and I'm trying a titanium restore. I'll be a week out of date if this works but won't lose anything critical. If this works. I hope, I hope, I hope.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phillipxenxciel:
That happen to me too, had to odin back to stock then flash bionix 1.7. lost all my data :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahnburner:
How about flashing JI6, applying OCLF, booting into clockwork recovery and selecting Nandroid-> Advanced-> (Your restore file)-> Data-> Yes.

This will reflash all your data on top of the new rom. The reason for reapplying the OCLF is because you backed up BEFORE undoing OCLF, so all your data is still in a .EXT2 file, so we have to have it expecting that before restoring.

Only thing left to do at this point is redo any themes you had installed, and your phone should be back to normal + the update.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
I must have backed up after removing OCLF because I ended up flashing stock and restoring just the data. Unfortunately while the data was there, none of my apps were so the fact that the data was there was moot since I couldn't get at a lot of it.

I followed up by flashing just system and now I've got my full functionality back just without ji6.

I'll probably try again after rolling back a few more changes -such as removing the rom manager update.zip - and making another backup or three.

I wonder if the people who've rooted - like me - are having problems because of updated versions of busybox that clockworkmod installs.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
Also, the titanium restore worked on stock. I haven't tried it on ji6. yet.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
After all the forced learning by doing where flashing roms is concerned I decided to skip the tmo update since they can't be bothered to provide a full list of fixes. I've installed the latest bionix and couldn't be happier.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelh99:
I've found that a Titanium backup is enough to use when flashing a new rom. Do a full backup. Flash the new rom. Restore apps+data. Selectively restore the green system items (so you get all your sms msgs and contacts). Enjoy. Worked for me on Sunday as I flashed various versions of bionix to try.
[G2 and Desire Z General] fastludeh22:
Htc must release the source in a timely matter, not just for us, but all devices out, and future ones coming. The best way to do this imo is not to start a big fire and smoke them out per say, but to go though proper channels. Obviously emailing them is having no effect, 120 days is not timely, I mean in 120 days this device will be outdated technically.

Imo this is the proper channel: http://gpl-violations.org/faq/violation-faq.html

Go there, read their page and then email them. Here is the letter I sent to the. Subject, "htc again, this time the vision" :

"I just wanted to bring to your attention that htc is in violation of the gpl again. As I'm sure your aware from other devices they released, ie desire, they are not releasing kernel source codes in a timely manner. In the case of the desire it has been over 3 months and to my knowledge is still not released, however my complaint today is about the htc vision, known in the usa as the G2. This product was offically released on oct. 6 2010, with no source code available. When contacted about it, they said it will be 90-120 days before its available. Maybe I'm wrong, but as my interpertations of the gpl this is unacceptable. Since the product is commerically available, then surely the source code is, and just being held back purposely.

Thank you for your help!

Keep open source open!"

[G2 and Desire Z General] InGeNeTiCs:
No offense, but perhaps you should have someone proofread your letter first. There are a number of grammatical errors in there. If you're posting in the boards, people just don't care, but YOU should care if you're sending a letter that is supposed to be accepted as intelligent and factual.

I can't stress this enough. I know a guy that does AMAZING web-design, but never gets hired(without me as an intermediary anyways) because his grammar and spelling is horrible. He miss-spells every other word, uses many words out of context, and rarely uses proper punctuation and capitalization.

This is not a rant and rave, but if you'd like a regulatory entity to take you seriously, it's in your best interest to put your best foot forward and proofread.

Sorry if this comes off as 'complainy', but if you're going to represent a community as a whole, i.e. xda or developers entirely, just do so gracefully.

[G2 and Desire Z General] simobile:
"To whom it may pertain to...

Just purchased a HTC T-mobile G2 aka HTC Vision and have been a avid HTC supporter for quite sometime. Ever since I owned my first HTC device the codenamed blueangel. The fact that HTC would work with the developer community pulled me toward your devices. I can't believe you guys (HTC) would lock down the successor to the device that helped you start the "open" revolution. I know it was most probably T-mobile that made you do it but that is besides the point. Especially since they have blamed you in the press. You have spit it the face of the developer community and shame on you and T-mobile. This protection will be broken I have no doubt of that but the fact that HTC put it there at all is what is in question. Please don't make this a race of protection...hack...protection...hack. OPEN means we should work together not against each other. So please do the right thing and help us either root these devices or give us the kernel source to help us along. Or even better do both of the above and show you respect the dev community like we all thought you did. Below I have included the first post of a stream that will become a torrent against HTC from the XDA devs.

Thanks for your cooperation."

Message I just sent HTC with a copy of the first post here. Don't care about grammar and neither will they if they receive enough complaints. We get enough people involved in this and it gets engadget or another blogs attention then maybe they will listen. This might be our only option considering the thinktank threads have gotten kinda quiet.

I'm looking for an app that would allow me to play videos from a network disk. All the solutions I was able to find usually require a program running on the PC which doesn't serve my needs - if my computer can be running, I can watch directly on the computer.

Whenever I plug the USB on my Vibrant, it reboot instantly and goes trough a loop showing a picture of a battery and some round "waiting" thing.

Only way I can keep it from doing so is when I go in download mode... :S

So far, I've rooted the thing, applied a lagfix (anyway to remove this BTW?) from http://project-voodoo.org/, and since I got this, I tryed hard reboot and clear user/all data from recovery console. Is this an hardware issue?

Maybe it was just me but I thought there review was excellent... I mean it was 7 pages long and picked every little thing about the OS apart. Whenever I want a review that is almost completely unbiased and very well done, I always go to gsm arena. If you look at most of their cons, they are pretty valid points. You don't have to agree with them that they're big enough to make you want to not buy the phone, but they are valid cons.

I thought it was a great review. I'd also love to see the platform hit 25% user base, that'd be a nice load of apps.

Its pretty strange that Android photos are still 4x3 while the world had already shifted to 16:9 everywhere from laptops to TVs. 2011 and still no 16:9 native in Android. Not even Cyanogen has cooked that into the firmware. Who cares if we lose 1MP, the format is important so the photos show fullscreen on laptop and TVs.
