[Droid X Android Development] SysAdmin-X:
I'm on the 2.3.15 OTA update and wanted to flash the sbf. I made it all the way through until the BP passthrough, where it fails.

Is there any way to get it to work 100%? I have put the phone in bootloader mode, and tried the various USB connection methods with the phone on as well...Both get to the same error right at the end.

Is it failing because I already have the same BP and radio?

thanks in advance
[Droid X Android Development] Sleuth255:
I believe you are referring to rsdlite which is the Motorola tool that you actually use to flash an SBF to your phone. The current version is 4.9 which was released on September 30th.

I just thought everyone was here to help all, didn't know I had to have a number of post to be able to get a file. Nothing in rules told me so I didn't know. how many post do I have to have? I am new to the smartphone world and after much reading thought this forum was the best place. Sorry

[Droid X Android Development] SysAdmin-X:
Sleuth,

Do you have a link to the RSD 4.9?

I have been having issues with the SBF working for me. Running 64-bit Win-7.

Keeps failing at the bp pass through... not too worried about it, as I have backups, but would like to start everything from scratch to have a cleaner phone =)
[Droid X Android Development] fireedo:
I dont know if this allowed but here is the link for RSD lite 4.9

(just remove * to download)
[Droid X Android Development] Ghxoxst:
so that deodex file i can just bootstrap up and have my phone deodex without having to install someones theme etc?

because thats what i did.

Downloaded the deodex file, ran bootstrap, rebooted....but now im hung on the damn motorola logo. Pulled Battery and rebooted again.......still hung on that logo...****.

What the **** do i do now?
[Droid X Android Development] Ghxoxst:
? anyone? please help
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
What file are you talking about. I don't think anyone helped, because we don't know what you did.
[Droid X Android Development] Ghxoxst:
I downloaded the Deodex file from above thinking i could just push it through koushs bootstrap and deodex my phone without having to go through someones theme.

Well i pushed that file and now just stuck on the M logo......so i pretty much just bricked my phone. , brand new phone may i add...lol ****ing ****.
[Droid X Android Development] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I haven't downloaded that file, but that says it's for RSD Lite 4.9. RSD Lite is the flashing tool used to flash SBF (Full recovery) to the phone.

I have no idea what/how that would even work in recovery. As such, I have absolutely no idea what it's done to your phone.

Where in the world did you get the idea that RSD Lite was a Deodex file?

As for fixing, I think you are going to be learning quite a bit about RSD. My only suggestion is to go ahead and flash the 2.2 SBF.

http://rootzwiki.com/index.php/Main-Page/Droid-X-Full-2.2-SBF.html
[Droid X Android Development] MrJohnnySpot:
This thread was a huge support for me recently.

So just a general and huge thank you for all the commentary in this thread. I ran into problem after problem.

First, I couldn't get RSD Lite to "see" my phone. The reason?! I didn't have the right drivers for Win7 x86 (Downloaded from Moto's site) then I couldn't get RSD to allow the SBF to press "Start" So, I googled the heck out of this problem with the start being grayed out in RSD Lite I found that the reason that was happening is because the file name wasn't the right length for the SBF I was using. It created an "Error...." log in the \Program Files\Motorola\RSD Lite\ folder which I opened up and guessed at how many spaces it needed to not kick it back, placed the SBF in the C:\ root directory and then it finally allowed me to Start and go through with the SBF.

Then once it started I didn't realize that my battery had drained so much and it froze mid way through flashing the SBF. First I was sad, then I thought "It's an SBF, hard to brick your phone when you know you can restore it" But how? Finding that out was harder, now that my battery was dead I was sort of SOL ... or was I. And this is where these boards came in help even more.

THANKFULLY! I have a co-worker that also has a DX and very graciously let me borrow their charged battery becuase I was stuck on the Bootloader screen that kept telling me

"Code Corrupt

Battery Low"

And once it gets to that point, you can't charge your battery so you have to charge your battery elsewhere (i.e. a desktop charger or someone else's phone) and then restart the SBF stuff. I figured I'd post this all in case somebody else has this problem as I know I searched endlessly for the problem on top of problems I had last night.

In any case, after all my troubles I was able to get through it all and now just have to Factory Reset my phone (once my battery is charged again, when I just plugged it in it was reading 0%) and then I'll start from scratch again and install a new ROM (Apex?) and theme and go from there.

If people have trouble this is what I had to do:

Find the SBF file (google it but I think others have posted the website name [NOT Link!] elsewhere)

Install the latest MotoConnect/Drivers direct from Moto's site (I googled "Motorola Droid X Drivers" and the first hit was the page to where I could download off to the right of the main page)

Install RSD Lite (I used the 4.8 patched version that I obtained from the same site that I found the SBF file)

Place SBF file in C:\ (renamed as r.sbf to start with)

--Rename one character at a time to make file name longer until the Start button is selectable and not grayed/greyed out if having errors (my file ended up being r123.sbf after renaming editing worked)

Hit Start

~> Make sure battery is charged

Let SBF flash do its thing

Once it reboots, reprogram phone by calling *228 (I did both programming and roaming options which required two phone calls)

Voila! No more gray hairs today than yesterday...well that may be a lie, but all else is word of truth.

Cheers everyone! Hopefully if anyone else has trouble like me they'll find my post helpful.

[Fascinate General] mAlfunkti0n:
This is my third android based phone, and the first I have seen that supports proxies (Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Wi-Fi settings -> Advanced). Is this something specific that Samsung has added? I am rooted, but running the stock rom beyond having SU.

The reason I ask this is that again, the Fascinate is the only device I have seen native proxy support with.

Since so many people despise unrevoked...what are your experiences or thoughts on Androot for the evo?

Sent from outerspace via Tapatalk
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
I think its iffy at best. Considering its not officially supported, your welcome try it. I think the best method is still toastcfh's root method. The reasons people dislike unrevoked is because you don't really know exactly what is being done to your phone. If you follow a root method like tostcfh's you are involved with every step, you will learn more about your phone, and you will be more likely to have some knowledge needed if you ever run into an issue. You also get nand unlock with the ENG Bootloader so installing CM6 isn't an issue :)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glitterballs:
So, if I want to test if my phone has download mode, and let's say it's successful, what next? Do I need to flash a ROM? Or can I just reboot the phone?

I know this might be a stupid question, but I know that when you do enter download mode, the screen says "Don't turn off target" or something like that, and I'd like to test download w/o flashing anything.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
your phone has a download mode. It's used to flash roms. I wouldn't mess with it unless you plan on flashing.

My two cents.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Nope - if your not doing anything reboot or pull the battery if needed.

The real trick is not only getting into Download mode - but if your Odin 1 Clicking to have your computer & Odin to recognize the phone.

If you pull up Odin and then put the phone into download mode and it recognizes your device your golden. Same thing applies.. just unplug and reboot as normal.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flashman2002:
Like was said you could pull the battery our hold your power button for about ten second. I disagree about the other posters saying unless you are flashing with odin to not use it. It us a good idea to find it if your three button combo works. If it does that is good. If it doesn't work it would be smart to be really careful with odin and swopping stuff around.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glitterballs:
Uhh...jesus, well the whole point is that I want to know if my phone is hardware locked or not so I can know if flashing will be safe(r) and not have to worry about a soft brick and not getting adb to recognize the phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] othermark:
Don't worry I tested mine first. Just pull the sim, sd card and battery as instructed and then re-pull the battery again to reboot after you see if download mode is there. If you don't flash and don't have odin open at all, nothing changes on the internal rom.

If your selling, put in your add that your willing to flash ROM on buyers request, may help sell abit quicker maybe?!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bakeryboy:
I have a question regarding all of these updates for the I9000. I currently am running JH2 and saw that there have been upgrades available on kies, yet it tells me there are no upgrades for my device when I connect my phone.

I read on the forum that I have to do something in the registry of kies so that my phone is recognized as I9000 not I9000m. How do I go about doing this? Or is there some way for me to get these updates via kies?

I hope this makes sense.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
no no, there are 2 different kind of updates

Kies updates for Kies

and phone update in Kies

the updates you see in Kies are for Kies itself not for the phone

if you run the firmware upgrade inside Kies

and tells you there is a new firmware available for your phone, then that is a real phone update, if you don't see a message, then it has not been released yet
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bakeryboy:
So when everyone is upgrading to JI6 via kies mini, is there currently no update for a i9000m JH2? Are the I9000 and I9000m different phones? And can the I9000m only receive certain firmware upgrades? As compared to all the upgrades available for the I9000?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
the ones floating around are not official releases

those are leaked test firmwares

you can install those if you want, but they are not official

you only need a registry hack to use Kies to flash it to JM1/JM2 (official)

or you can use Odin like the rest to install the non official releases

JH2 seems to work better than the ones mentioned above specially if you are in America
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electroz:
Yes they are different phones, hence the different name. JH2 is the most recent firmware for the I9000M. You can put other firmwares on it using Odin, but it is not recommended as there have been a lot of issues with the internal SD cards on the I9000M and many believe they may be related.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bakeryboy:
Thank you so much for your quick reply, this helps a lot with all these updates floating around. When Froyo does come out will that be available for the I9000M or will that be a waiting game? Either way I am pleased with my phone despite some problems with GPS. Here goes the waiting game.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkp2505:
Hi, I have had a Samsung Galaxy S for about a month, it's my first Android phone and things had been going reasonably well until yesterday. I was messing about with a little drawing app when the phone locked up and a few seconds later the screen went blank. After about another 10 seconds it came back on and was on the unlock screen. I don't think it went through the normal boot animation though.

I started using it again and about 30 seconds later it crashed in the same way but this time I was on the home screen with no third party apps running. I have used it since and it has so far been OK but I am a little wary.

How common is this kind of thing? I wasn't expecting this kind of thing from Android since it is effectively Linux. I mean even Windows Mobile didn't do this to me. Basically I'm just concerned in case there is a hardware fault.

The phone is running the original firmware with only a handful of third party apps, none of which run at startup.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
you forgot to mention the model number and the ROM version that you are running.

there are some similar issues reported by other people regarding the band selection bug.

but it's seems to work better with newer firmwares

there's a sticky about it, not sure if your case is exactly the same or not

I tried this question before but didn't get a clear answer so;

I have an unbranded SGS with a T-Mobile sim card. Will Kies recognise it as T-Mobile and make me wait until December for the T-Mobile upgrade or will it allow me to upgrade as soon as 2.2 appears?

Hi.

I don't usually pay much attention to the benchmark arguments that go on, but today I'm curious!

On JM9 with OCLF, my quadrant score was the usual 2200-2300.

But with JPM and OCLF it has dropped to around 1725.

I've flashed and re-flashed, but it always comes out the same.

I'm sure the Quadrant video sequences in JM9 were all around 55+ fps, but a couple of them in JPM are now around 40fps.

Any thoughts? The phone seems smooth enough (I use Launcher Pro) and Linpak gives me ~14.1

Cheers
