I decided to partition my SD card today because i needed more space for my apps. I used ROM Manager to do the work. Everything went fine until it booted up. Now I'm stuck on the HTC screen. I read that the boot takes a while but I've been waiting for over an hour. I've also tried to pull the battery out and restart but I'm still stuck on that same screen. Anyone know how to fix this?
[Legend General] sukasem:
I do have this problem. I have to remove the SD card in order to boot successfully and reformat it to FAT32.
[Legend General] sukasem:
what rom you use?

I used to flash whitetigerdk v0.4 and got that problem but now I downgrade to v0.3 and problem's gone

Hi there!

I just noticed that we got some new widgets.

We got note (which I was waiting for), quick record (one button record that works good and after recording gives you a notification) and today in history (wow, it's quite good and I loved it :) also gives information about event). And they are better than tip calculator and dice.

May the widgets be with you :D
[Wildfire General] axq:
Finally!

Notes!!!

And... The new Market version got a widget too?

But what does it do?
[Wildfire General] Alex_GP:
Yep, just got my Wildfire and was thinking of a note widget. Thanks for the heads up !
[Wildfire General] zephyri-xr:
Market has a widget?
[Wildfire General] axq:
Yep, the new Version (2007) got a widget.

But it doesnt show anything to me.

Some Users say that it shows sponsored paid apps.
[Wildfire General] thunderskain:
Yeah the market widget just shows an empty miniature of the market

It's totally possible to flash radios that weren't designed for your phone.

However, I'm pretty sure that this is the only way to software-brick your phone. And it will brick. Sorry.

Do not flash a radio that wasn't meant for your phone.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidSPCS:
Evo noob here, trying to learn how to root, load new ROMs, and revert to stock ROM if needed.

What is the difference between:

RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.26.651.6_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_NV_1.40_release_140444_signed.exe

vs

RUU_Supersonic_1.47.651.1_Radio_2.05.00.06.10_release_CL195459.exe ??

These are supposedly stock files for the Evo? Which one do you run to flash back to stock? Why are there two different files?

Also super dumb question - what does RUU stand for? Thanks for helping educate a noob.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrapkgb:
The first one is the RUU for froyo 3.26 (3.29 was the lastest OTA with the fps fix)

The second one is the RUU for 2.1 (eclair) if I am not mistaken.

There is also a new RUU posted in the development section for 3.29.

Hope I didn't confuse you even more. Lol

Edit: and yes these files are used to unroot. And I too would like to know what RUU stands for!
[HD2 General] ruffrider5956:
Ok my phone just recently started having signal issues no matter what rom i flash or where i am it will have signal for a little bit then it will say no signal. I cant figure out what the problem is. I googled it but most people have this problem with their phone brand new where as mine just started and i have had the phone for 6 months
[HD2 General] otakubakaa:
most likely its your radio, radio is what determines your signal strength and quality, try using another radio version and see if that improves it.
[HD2 General] ruffrider5956:
thats what i thought it was to but i have tried all the radios and the problem just doesnt go away. I have tried soft resets hard resets but no luck im guessing the phones just messed up now though i have never even dropped the darn thing.
[HD2 General] otakubakaa:
What rom, and other information are you using?
[HD2 General] kmdub:
What about other factors? Like your environment. Did you recently get a new case or change anything physically about the phone? Maybe opened it up or something. Maybe your phone has a case of iPhone disease or something...just grasping at straws here.
[HD2 General] stim141:
Does it occur in the same location or every location? Does it seem like its attempting to "hunt" for a signal or do you just have something like 1 bar then it drops out and eventually comes back. Or does it drop out never to reappear only when you do a hard reset (turn off and on)?

I had a radio issue with my older TYTN (I) and it drops in a really strong area starts hunting then finds the signal and its very strong. Eventually it stops finding the signal unless you turn it on multiple times. Even this would not work and it wouldn't get the radio version when the phone was turned on. Had to replace the motherboard and it was fine since. Also trying to reflash a rom/radio with a bad radio in the phone can be pretty difficult - like it won't flash. Remember mine would freeze at 15% and never go any further.

If its the radio you probably wouldn't see the radio ver code when the phone first turns on. This is if the radio chip is really dying. Try the legimate original stock radio (use TMOBILE's ROM if you are in the US) for a while otherwise the phone should still be under warranty.
[HD2 General] ruffrider5956:
Well im using elegencia rom the newest one and i have tried all the radios and the problem doesnt seem to go away. The problem happens no matter where i am even in the towns were i would never lose reception i get no bars there once in awhile every 5 mins i get no bars then it comes back then it goes away. The phone is still under warranty im going to keep searching for another fix for the next week if not im going to send back i wish they would just give me a different phone.
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
if you have not done so try another sim card. when the sim card gets corrupted, they have a tendency to act just like you are describing.

Kind of a silly question, but would you really use your phone to watch your movies on a big screen? I mean I guess if you didn't have ANY other solution. But these days it's hard to imagine someone who doesn't have a PC or a dvd/bluray player to watch movies on or something. Maybe if you were traveling or something...

Hello,

Currently i'm a happy HTC HD2 owner but after working a bit with Android and the galaxy i decided to buy one but before i do i have a few questions.

I installed the desire HD android Edition on my hd2 and it was wonderful. Can this android rom or something similar be installed on the galaxy?

Is it easy to root/get admin rights?

Also the galaxy android is the same compared to htc android ?

Waiting for your help and replies!

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaliKot:
there's a huge thread on Android Development on porting the desire hd rom.

It will be alot of work if its possible.

Its easy to root it as tools are on the marketplace

Galaxy S runs Samsung's Touchwiz UI instead of HTC's SenseUI. This is where HTC wins, but hardware-wise Galaxy S is the best in the market right now
[Vibrant General] siirial:
Disclaimer: XDA-Developers has zero affiliation and liability with this, and the sale of these parts is being allowed only for the sake of helping the modding community

My original thread was getting cluttered, and XDA asked me to make some changes, so here is the new thread on HOW TO DO THE MOD.

Breaking news available via my twitter feed, or #vibrantFFC

The US/T-Mobile variant of the Samsung Galaxy S had it's FFC borked prior to manufacturing. This has left us an easy way to add it back in and open up the ability to explore video calling. From my experience thus far, their is poor support for software for FFC's in general, but this seems to be changing. As more of these cameras make it out to devs, expect to see more video calling and chatting apps to start appearing in the near future.

To accomplish this you need a few things:

[*]A camera from the international Galaxy S variant, the i9000s. These are available through a wholesaler that requires a minimum order of 3, sometimes more. If you want to go this route and find a buddy, see my thread for that

here

.

A small size 0 flat head screw driver and phillips screw driver. Most eyeglass repair kits include screw drivers that are close enough in size to work.

An iPod opener tool, or something similiar.

Something to remove the paint from the digitizer where the FFC goes. Denatured alcohol, and the stronger goo gone varieties are known to work

Q-tips

Some balls (not really - its easy) and common sense (goes a long ways)!

An FFC compatibale ROM - eugene's froyo (2.2) or Bionix (2.1)

Open your phone - Remove the battery cover, sd card, sim card, battery. remove the 7 screws around the back plate, then use the iPod opener tool to snap the rear plate off.

Unsnap the various buckles to release the motherboard.

remove the speaker and original camera

turn the main board clockwise for about an inch to allow some space to work

locate the FFC molding. It is above where the original camera was located. You can dry fit the new camera in place to see where the FFC goes. This is the area that the paint needs to be removed from

Use your remover of choice and some qtips to get that paint off of there

Let things completely dry before putting back together. 10 - 30 minutes should be fine

snap new camera in place, check your work.

If it looks good, installation is reverse of removal.

Some ROMs (2.2 base) do not include the font camera driver. If you cannot get it to work, try copying the attached file (unzip first - should have .yuv extension) to /system/camera on your phone. (requres root)

[Vibrant General] NikolaiT:
Apologies for the noob question but what do you mean in step 2? Do we actually have to take the motherboard out of the phone like in these videos: http://www.careace.net/2010/06/09/disassembly-of-the-samsung-galaxy-s/ and also is it really necessary to remove the speaker?

EDIT: Sorry for not being descriptive, What I mean is, does the speaker block this "socket"in which the FFC goes? If not then why is it necessary to remove it?
[Vibrant General] memorito:
Do the files go in /system/camera or in /system/cameradata ?

I am trying to work it on the Bionix 1.7 rom and I keep getting errors.

Here are my mod pics just to show off. hehehehe.

It won't run on stock kernel. There are several threads going about the cams. You may want to read them to get a full sense of whats going on. But, it looks promising.
[Vibrant General] joshthewaster:
Got mine installed a few minutes ago. I'm not on a rom that supports the FFC but the rear camera works, no lines or fuzziness as some reported. On first opening the camera app I tried to tap to focus and got a force close. Can't get it to happen again so I'm not sure why that happened. Other than that it's working perfectly.

I did notice on installing the camera that NOTHING but the camera needs to be unsnapped. There is a ribbon cable that has to be flexed into place to install the new one but it does save you from removing the whole board (not that it's hard but why bother). On installing the new camera I did notice almost a snap when the ffc popped into place.

I think mine looks great. Granted in super close-up it looks nasty. But if you resize the picture to around the size of the phone you see how good it looks in person. I used a dental tool (one of those metal hook things to scrape teeth you can get in a pharmacy) to scrape around the edge after applying the Goo Gone. I think a pin or needle would work jut as well. That scores the outer edge of the paint so when you scrape it off it comes off in one piece mostly. It wont pull from the edges and deform. My pictures are in post #7 of this very same thread.

Funny you say that. See, I would have rather bought my camera through him and actually RECEIVE my item. This ****ing joker told me it would be no problem sending the camera to a different address, because the one that was on my paypal address when i actually purchased the item was correct, but was moving literally 2 days after, and realized it afterward. He said it would be no problem sending it to the new address, but a day after he claims he shipped it, I receive a email from ebay letting me know the item was shipped, so I emailed him just to confirm that he was sending it to my new address.

Later I get a "sorry" email basically telling me he couldent remember who needed the address changed, and he was too busy with his real job to bother, so he just shipped them and "hoped i put in a change of address."

What a ****ing shade star, gave this guy terrible feedback....well see if my camera ever shows it, if not Ill take one of your cameras polish dude....that is if you know how to ship a package :rolleyes:

That isn't siirials fault that he is busy in real life and simply forgot to change the address and seriously, expressing your anger (on the internet) is not helping anybody. I urge you not to reply to this because I'd rather not have a bunch of people jump in and cause a flame war. Also, the only reason I posted that reply to PolishDude is because stuff like that is what made siirial start another thread.
[Vibrant General] itsjusttim:
Wrong! It is definitely 5.0MP and the quality is the same as the stock one.

The problem is it doesn't seem to get enough power which is causing banding lines in the rear.

I would still recommend buying and installing this mod as the ffc works great and hopefully the rear camera issue will be resolved asap.

If anyone has questions regarding this MOD, let me know and il see if I can help. I have installed 8 of these and have 5 more on the way.
