[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Peteryoung:
Ok, this is ****ing ridiculous, every other phone i've ever had from htc etc, xda has had my ass covered, i always found what i wanted, found step by steps and all links are alive....the droid however.....has everybody forgotten it exists??????

I need to return droid, and to do so i obviously need to unroot, stock it up and send it back, sounds easy right??????

WRONG!

every link i click on here, alldroid, droidworld, droidlife, droidwasteoftime etc etc........gives me a completely different method, some say i can do it, others say don't bother, all give me links, but everyone without fail.....fails.

so PLEASE, somebody please just give me a LIVE link to stock 2.0.1 so i can do it myself, thats all i ask, just a working link, just one!

obviously the droid ceased to exist when all the new generation of devices appeared, but this is ridiculous....there is still a VERY active community for devices like my old kaiser, aaaages after they disappeared from shelves, so why, only a year or so after release has everybody just given up on this phone????

Sorry most of this is redundant, i don't want to get flamed, but i'm so damn FRUSTRATED!!!! please, if you ignore everything else, please can somebody just give me the link so i can restore what i want and ship this piece of **** right out!

Two disclaimers: I have read all other threads relating to this issue, and I am making a new one because if I post in an old one with a very specific question, it is likely to get passed over to answer someone else's more simple question.

I want to stream videos from my PC to my Vibrant via AllShare. However, AllShare is in a permanent state of "No Devices". Here is what I've tried that has failed:

-I've tried the PC Share Manager, which does not detect my phone in the Device Policy window, no matter what state my phone or the AllShare app is in.

-I've disabled my firewall, in Windows and temporarily in my Router (Which exception would this be for WMP in Windows Firewall? because I've tried everything.)

-I've set "Automatically allow devices..." in WMP

-I have turned on everything relating to media sharing in the Windows 7 network center, and disabling any password protecting.

-I have tried to detect my phone using XBMC via uPnP. Nothing.

Neither my phone nor computer will detect each other. I must either be stupid or there is something wrong. Please, any suggestions?:confused:

I m looking to root my aria and would like to know which ROM should i use. All i m interested in is:

Ability to move apps to SD (this is my biggest issue with stock rom)

Probably keep sense UI or something close to it..

be able to unroot to stock ROm in case AT&T decides to release froyo

Will appreciate any input..

Honestly, its a preference thing...attn's liberated is a stripped down version of the stock at&t rom, while the cyanogen mod is just...well, to put it simply a LOT better than anything else...but, again, that's just my preference...my suggestion, try both and YOU choose which one to use because, ultimately, you're the one using the phone -- not us.

MY Phone Condition:

My phone was previously install with voodoo rom and use clockwork recovery to restore to my stock rom that i backup and it crash half way.

My phone was hardware lock this mean no matter how i press the volume and power button , i will never get into download mode. non of the method posted work !

My phone cannot use "adb reboot download" because there is no OS and it was stuck in the recovery loop.

It does not have clockwork recovery because i formatted my internal sdcard

If i do have clockwork recovery and i use restore image or install new from zip , i still stuck in the recovery mode after reboot several times.

My phone does not mount to internal sdcard because i don't even know what i did on this part.

I believe i screw up my partition of the phone.

DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

You need the Samsung USB driver and you can get it from Here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=728929

First Part

1. Download update.zip from the link below. This was post by another member.

The post is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=804305

2. Place the update.zip in tools folder so you can push it into your phone by using adb command

3. Plug usb into the phone and your phone should be on the Android system recovery <2e>

4. Use your volume button to select reinstall package, don't press power button yet.

5. constant "adb push update.zip /sdcard" from computer , you will get permission denied.

6. While you are constantly pushing the adb command from computer. press the power button on the phone so it install update.zip from sdcard.

7. This is the part where it force adb push into sdcard without permission

8. once the update.zip install completed. unplug the usb cable from the phone and take the battery out.

9. put the battery back to the phone then press on both volume button.

10. While holding both volume button , plug in your usb cable and it will boot to download screen.

If you need use Odin to flash your phone to original stock rom. Go to the Second Part
[Vibrant Android Development] jaex:
Second Part:

If you get black screen with only 4 light on the bottom after flashing from Odin.

Follow http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=728698

There should be T959-PDA.tar,T959-CSC.tar and T959-Phone.tar within the package.

Check "Re-Partition" , "Auto Reboot" and "F.Reset Time" check box. Use the PIT 0512 version. Use "PDA", "PHONE" and "CSC" from the link above.

After flashing with Odin, you will loose the download mode. repeat the first part and you are good to go.

Here is the link on rooting the phone

[Vibrant Android Development] jaex:
You figure it out after all. I already stated the condition of my phone ! My phone was pretty bricked at that point. There is way for me to push any files into the phone because i don't have permission and my phone will not go to download mode by using the volume button. It just stuck at recovery mode.

There are guide out there teach you to use "adb push download". This method only work if you are in your phone and you turn on debug mode. My phone crash at the clockwork recovery bootloader. Then i formated my internal sdcard that hold the clockwork. next i push a stock update.zip that does not have su and busybox so i lost the capability to push anything into the phone.

no download mode , no permission, no sdcard --> You tell me how can i use the method that post few week ago ?

[Vibrant Android Development] atlaswingpasaway:
unfortunately, i was one of those careless people to brick my phone via Voodoo.

Firstly, i tried to "FLASH" the disable_voodoo zip file via Clockwork, i put it in root, and never created any folders. i knew i had to disable voodoo before flashing but my steps were wrong.

sadly enough, my phone was also HW locked, so i got it exchanged. now im not using voodoo YET and i my new vibrant can handle OC and has the recovery/download mode via buttons.
[Vibrant Android Development] jaex:
i use shell to create the file that disable voodoo. after disable voodoo , i was able to do restore and install new rom unfortunately after restore or install new rom , it still reboot into recovery.
[Vibrant Android Development] muncknr:
I also forgot to disable voodoo, and this was before there were fix instructions posted. So i basically effed up my phone to the point of being stuck in the samsung recovery loop, no hardware download mode, no clockwork recovery, no update.zp, no adb download.

I really thought I had completely bricked my phone, I tried this just out of desperation and what do you know, push update.zip over and over and click and it goes through, which allowed me to get into download mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] jaex:
nice , you just have to re-root and install the new rom again , if it brick again , just use this method and you are good again.many of us forgot to disable the voodoo before we restore or install new rom and this crashes the phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] Pur3_Purpl3:
Need some help really bad

Ok so I have a similar situation as you did (OP), only mine is a bit worse... In my irrational "in the moment" fear of the situation, I used adb reboot recovery to get into recovery mode (HW locked phone) and I did the option that deletes all the **** on the phone and restores the phone to its original format (I think it reinstalled the OS or something, because it looks brand new). So now, whenever I boot up, it does the annoying black screen with the 4 glowing buttons thing for a while, and then eventually the OS actually shows up on the screen. Then it does "scanning media" thing over and over again, but thats not the main problem. I figured, hey this isnt so bad atleast I found your thread and would be able to use your method to help restore my phone... the problem is that somehow my "settings" button is totally gone from the app menu, and I cant get it into debug mode, so I cant use either adb or your method or ANYTHING!! My phone is practically bricked as I cant do anything because its constantly laggy and turns back to the black screen thing, and then when it is showing the homescreen I cant do **** because even swiping to another screen takes like 5 minutes to do cause its so laggy. So basically I ****ed up, and I really need some help.. Im kinda a noob at this whole thing and im really outa options as far as I can tell.. does anyone know what I can do to repair my phone? Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] d33dvb:
Thats not a brick, if its just laggy, flash another rom, take a look in the bible and download one of those roms, and flash. You can also take a look at Rom manager in the market, you need to install recovery, then install a rom you get from this forum.
[Vibrant Android Development] Pur3_Purpl3:
I cant though, I know that I have to reflash a rom, and I have one picked out already from the bible, but the thing is I cant flash it cause I cant get into recovery mode at all.. im hardware locked, and I cant do adb because i cant access settings so I cant turn on usb debugging.
[Vibrant Android Development] goodfella904:
Please help!!

:confused:

I'm sorry if I missed the answer somewhere on the forums but my phone is having the same issue and need assistance: just to give you an idea what I did to get there...

I rooted my phone w/ update.zip then i backed up my stock/root rom w/ Clockwork recovery using Rom Manager. Then I downloaded the Voodoo patch (the easy method :( update.zip) placed it on my internal card and ran the update via stock recovery. after the completion of setup it went to Vibrant screen and froze there for about 25 minutes...so i shut off phone and attempted Odin to restore back to factory.

Odin did not work even though it said finished I would get stock on black screen after boot load. so I ran the voodoo update.zip again w/ stock recovery and this time it worked. I wasnt happy with results because 3G and wifi was not working so I went into rom manager and attempted to restore my phone from backup. apperantly the voodoo changed my format to EXT4 and the backup would not work on that so i got stuck on boot loop and black screen. I attempted Odin several times and no luck...then i attempted ADB shell while in recovery mode. it access my phone with ADB Shell but no cammands seeem to be working...such as PUSH (invalid command error I believe) I tried even with the download screen on...no luck with Push command or any other command such as reboot...

If anybody can walk me STEP-BY-STEP how to resolve my issue I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Nice app, at first It was always pressing 2 arrows at the same time but it was just because of the Tap overlap % so I've set it to 0 so now it's working pretty nice.

I had an issue once an arrow became "stuck" for a second (pressed and released it and it stayed pressed for a sec or more) Another bug was that I pressed Home while playing a song but the game didn't stopped or neither paused (song was running) and Watchdog alerted me about Beats high proccessor usage on backgroud (around 55% but maybe only because the song was still running [edit] But when you loose because you are not playing anymore processor usage lowers)

Please remove the vibrate on launch (and on start) I don't find them useful and at first I though the app had crashed.

This is just a bug report and I hope that they will get fixed because I really liked it

Hey everyone, you can go here for some quick and good song/step packs:

http://www.stepmaniadownloadsource.com/

Does this program also support pump it up packs or in the groove packs? Not much of a pump fan myself, and I HATE ITG(cause its too hard :P) but just curious.

I used to be into the gathering scene of getting songs and getting/making step files to complete the ddr packs for stepmania. Cant remember the name of the site though.. it was something like ddrstep.co.uk

BTW, if anyone is interested you can also always make your own stepfiles for songs that don't already have them. Just download stepmania and you can use that to create them :)
[Android Apps and Games] Moodilic:
If you have many songs that only have .dwi extensions you'd want to convert it to .sm (just until the dev has implemented .dwi and .smzip support).

Put all the songs (not too many or it'll take a long time) that you want to convert in either one folder or you can have your current structure, it doesn't matter.

1. Install Stepmania 3.9

2. Open Stepmania (using the default theme)

3. Game start -> Single -> (go right) endless mode.

4. Choose the folder(s) you want to "convert".

5. Press enter twice to go into the song options.

6. Choose exit for the first option.

7. Turn on auto adjust.

8. Let the game play for a few seconds.

9. Hold esc and select yes to save your changes.

All your files will now be converted into SM format.

It may take a while depending on how many songs you have.
