[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysFailur3:
I bought it "as-is" off ebay after my eris was stolen. The item picture showed it was booted to recovery, and I noticed it had Amon_Ra's recovery already, and could navigate aaround the menus. From what I got from the owner, who said flashing a ROM was over his head, the flash went bad, unknown cause. The bootloader was 1.49.2000 eng S-OFF and shelling in wasn't a problem.

The rooting bit seems to have gone alright. As to the actual cause, dunno.

Same errors as SoSicWiTiT in regards to the partitions not being useable. Noticed the boot image always showed 256 blocks, and when unpacked there was only a 0 byte, kernel named file w/ no ram disk. Would have had to move the boot part. to get it to flash, but I never got that far, although I got system and data partitions setup on the sdcard via custom boot.img.

Aside from a few other different fixing attempts, I followed in your footsteps. When the mtd-utils were introduced was when I got it fixed. Other experiments did prove interesting, yet impractical.

Thanks again for the work you guys put in.

Cool. I'm glad that the effort spent building those mtd-utils turned out to be more useful than a one-off.

**For anyone with a "1.49 S-ON, stock recovery, boots to 3 skating droid" problem, use http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/556826-stuck-in-boot-up-screen.html; also use http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/556826-stuck-in-boot-up-screen.html to complete the www.htcdev.com portion; the site is EXTREMELY SLOW.

doogald , Your attention to detail in that thread was invaluable (and commendable). Reading through your instructions made the process run smoothly and ALSO helped me learn a lot about the fastboot method. My second-hand Droid Eris is up and running thanks to you. Not being cheesy, just really appreciative.

I've been trying to fix this Eris for over a year; will use it to learn as much as I can about rooting/code/whatever..and WiFi caller/slacker player. Next project is replacing the cracked screen (digitizer I guess..parts ordered).

A million thanks. Noobs like me get discouraged by the experienced guys who post "get lost" or "everyone knows that" replies on the forums. That thread is a perfect example of why the Droid Rooting Community is unmatched.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
I'm glad that helped you out.

Thanks especially belong to Scotty85 for his clever discovery of the use of the unlocked 1.51 bootloader, ScaryAlien and Amon_RA for the custom recovery, SoSicWiTiT for discovering the ability to use ROM.zip to sneak flash the root ROM, and particularly to bftb0/Erisuser1 for ErisMiscReset, MTD_Inspect and ErisMTDNuke_v0.9.zip, and JCase for the misc image in ErisMiscReset. I'm happy to walk people through the great work and discoveries made by them.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
Using a goldcard you should be able to flash the rogers RUU...

But better yet, you should root and get custom recovery...

From there you could flash a modified Rogers rom... like the one from capychimp in the development section.

HI guys i have read about the updates froyo 2.2 will have and all that, but i was wondering if it will increase our download/upload rate? I would assume no but then again idk because of software changes on the phone may increase them but i no it mostly has to do with our provider? just wanted to hear your thoughts.... and one other ? does battery life last longer if i keep wifi on? rumor i heard
[Epic 4G General] specialk0324:
Can't really answer first question,but for me, my phone lasts much longer with wifi on
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
There's something seriously low quality either about the radio firmware or Samsung's bad coding because in all my years with Sprint with 3g phones, the Epic is the "slowest" 3g-wise.

Even with the last update, upload speeds are still subpar and my 3g speeds are definitely less than I remember with my previous phones.

Maybe 2.2 Froyo might just be the solution.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hksmr2:
Hi,

I want to say that everyone is very helpful in this forum and you all rock. I'm having some problems with my rooted samsung captivate. I installed the I9000 Full rom, and it was running fine for a few days then I notice it was very sluggish, so I did a factory restore, but data and apps didn't delete. So I then when in to recovery (R2) and deleted cache and all user data files, then it did a factory restore, and it went in boot up pass the att and samsung S i9000 screen and when to the lock screen, but once I unlock the phone, its just in the black screen, when I click and hold on to the home button it goes to recent, no recnet application and under Task Manager, I have 0 active applications. It won't load any programs or apps. I tried restoring the phone by holding the down volume key and power on button, it goes to R2 recovery and then reinstall package, but it can't find the package. I have it on the memory card, but I guess I deleted it from the internal memory when I did a factory restore. Am I screw, or can someone guide me through this and fix my fone. Thanks in advance. XDA Rules.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
Odin one click back to stock, assuming you can get into download mode. Also do a master clear just to be sure. A fresh start might be just what your Captivate needs.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost1:
The same thing happened to me yesterday. Phone was on, battery fully charged. I got on my flight and left it on (forgot I guess) and when I got off the flight, the screen was black. I'll also add, that over the past 3 days the phone was starting to get extremely sluggish (for no reason that I can think of). But back to the rest of the story...

I couldn't get it to turn on, so I pulled the battery and tried again. This time I got the AT&T logo and the Samsung animation. Once the animation was completed the screen goes black.

The phone is still on. How do I know? If I touch any of the bottom buttons they light up.... and stay lit up until I do a battery pull.

Deleted/cleared everything, same behaviour.

I tried reflashing JI6, it works but fails to reinstall the packages, otherwise same behaviour.

I tried reflashing JF6, same behaviour.

The flashes always succeed, but always end up in failure.

Now for the interesting part. I went into recovery mode on JI6. I try to format the internal /sdcard, I get a message that it cannot mount /sdcard /dev... not found.

So to recap, phone not working, recovery mode available, download mode available. adb doesn't seem to be working, but if someone can tell me how to access the phone with "adb shell" while in recovery mode, I might be able to diagnose why /dev... is not mounting... Or at least how I could fix it using adb.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm traveling and needless to say, this is a huge inconvenience, I'm lucky I had my backup phone to at least be able to get online and be able to make calls.

[A] whats best way to obtain my msl? thx

So, root your phone.

then download a terminal program like android terminal emulator, it is the first result when you search the market for terminal.

Open the terminal

Type "getprop ril.MSL" without the quotes capitalization matters

Boom, it serves up your msl without tons of useless garbage to sort through.

Somone should write an epic msl finder app and put it in the market.

I love how even after you provide a very simple method of obtaining the MSL without calling Sprint, several people have to chime in and tell you to call Sprint. lol

Hey all, just giving you the heads up that I am a n00b when it comes to android, however I think I have read as much as I can on this issue and can't quite find what I am looking for, so.. time to ask you guys!

When I was using the stock (2.1) firmware that came with my Galaxy S, the stock Messaging application had a button for 'Smilies' which I could use to quickly add a :) in a text message.( or others if I long pressed the keyboard button)

I have recently flashed the the Doc_Kalpik Froyo JP6/JPM V6 ROM.

Now when I use the 'stock' Messaging application the 'Smilies' button has been replaced by a 'carriage return' key, which don't get me wrong isn't all that bad, but I am wondering how I can change it.

I am using Swype, but from what I understand this isn't necessarily a 'keyboard thing' or a 'Rom/firmware' thing as much as it is a 'Messaging application' thing.

Apparently there is a good messaging app (Handcent) that allows me to change some of the keys on the keyboard, but I would like to try to use the stock Messaging app if possible.

I can still access the smiley menu through the 'settings' key while typing a message, but I just wan't to know if I am able to toggle this keys functionality without requiring a new keyboard/messaging app.

Thanks in advance.

Hey,

the official documentation has a Hello WebView section which basically

does all the things you want except for hiding the progressbar:

developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-webview.html

(sry cant post links as a new user)

You may want to read and work through this.

The progressbar can be hidden by calling

Activity.setProgressBarVisibility(false)

for example inside onCreate().
