Installing superuser.apk...

Any tips? When I check the phone superuser is already installed.. Am I rooted?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] wolfilein:
easy

just wait then after <10 mins there will popup a message an it's rooted
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] siddharthsai:
For all who cant get the tool to work -

The superOneClick 1.5.1 requires an additional thing to be installed.

You can download 1.5.3 , i used this one and works well

STEPS :

*** Switch off the phone for a Min

*** Turn on and wait a minute so that the Indexing completes

*** Copy the superoneclick folder to C: ( Seems to work without this step but is faster )

*** Go to > settings > Applications > Development > Enable USB debugging

*** Right click on superoneclick.exe

*** Connect USB to Phone

*** Wait for 10 seconds ( Patients is virtue :) )

*** Click on root

< After this step , go have a coffee >

comeback after 5-10mts and see if its saying waiting for device...

*** Go again to USB debugging and disable and enable quickly

You have root :)

Additional steps -

If this is not working then all you have to do is , during the continuous loop , disable usb debugging > remove the cable > plug it in (still usb debugging disabled) > plug it out > Enable usb debugging > Connect

This should will work!

Hope this helps...

WARNING : YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE SCREENSHOTS WITH THIS ROOTING , SOME BUG.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] siddharthsai:
Which version of superoneclick are you using ? I had the same problem with 1.5.3 ( all i did was replace the superuser.apk from 1.5) ( not 1.5.1 )...

Rooting is complete only when it shows " Testing su" and you get a 'allow/block message from the superuser app on the phone!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] snurreburre:
I dident get anythiing like that. Just a msg on superoneclick "your device is rooted". But its rooted? Tho cant take screenshots.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] saikatroy:
My phone (U20i) rooted successfully, but since then it is restarting everytime trying to swipe for unlocking the phone!:confused:

Please help!:(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] saikatroy:
Ok I got it sorted!:)

I forgot to change permission for the keyboard layout file. Now its working perfectly!

And I formatted the SD card for R&D:rolleyes:.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Funkadelick:
I would seriously donate money to someone via paypal if you can help me
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Zborg:
Maybe try a stock kernal through odin? Im a NoOB but least if you can get in download mode you know u should be ok, from what ive done and read these phones are hard to brick!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
Try clearing the cache in recovery mode.

EDIT: If you're able to provide information about your phone that would help a lot. What model, firmware, apps etc?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Funkadelick:
did a factory reset via download mode

seemed to fix it

should i get the phone replaced regardless ?

how do i know if it's an internal sd card issue ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
It is not. Probably old firmware problem (my did same thing a few times, though even on newer firmwares).

I'd recommend just to update to latest firmware.
[HD2 General] Hyunnylee:
I was wondering if i can use unlocked tmobile htc hd2 with the $10 data plan (unlimited) that is available for non smartphones. Will tmobile realize that i am using htc hd2 and upgrade it to smartphone data plan? i am gonna make a contract with a non smartphone and add that 10 dollar data plan to use it on my htc hd2 Do you have to have an Unlocked htc hd2 (not tmobile branded) to do that? is it even possible either way?
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Yes it is possible to do such a thing, but for how long is currently unknown. T-Mobile has recently started denying people using the non-smartphone internet with smartphones internet access as it is a violation of the TOS...so good luck!
[HD2 General] Hyunnylee:
So i can do it with the tmobile branded unlocked htc hd2? but dont they know that i i am using htc hd2 if i use the 10$ data plan and automatically upgrade it?
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Yes they will know you are using an HD2, and yes, it is possible that they will upgrade it automatically. My advice; just opt for the 20USD unlimited smartphone data from the start...you won't have to setup the proxy or live in fear that your plan will be upgraded.
[HD2 General] Hyunnylee:
Isnt it 30 USD? if it was 20 then i can probably get the data plan but i am pretty sure the data plan is $30. Wait so if you dont get the $10 data plan on the tmobile branded unlocked htc hd2, will they know its a hd2?
[HD2 General] aceo07:
There's no way to get around it. They will know what phone you're using. I do not know if they will make a change to your plan without confirming with you.

I don't know how you will actually enable the $10 plan in the first place though.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Thats a good point aswell. You have to have a device that supports the 10USD plan to even add it to your plan, so you may not be able to anyways. And the full internet is either 20 or 30 depending on your contract arrangement.
[HD2 General] hellzlegend:
I recently got my phone and it's working for me. I get HSDPA speed with the $10 internet.
[HD2 General] calc:
Yeah it should work.... just so you know you are defrauding the T-Mobile network. There's still a lot folks out there that are apparently still on the T-Zone plan as well....

Actually if you know or are familiar with those Asian run phone shops and ask nicely you don't even need a dumb phone to setup the $10 plan, the reps that work there will just call T-mobile and defraud the whole system for you.....

Yeah... that's just jolly.
[HD2 General] Paten:
Does it really bother you that somebody else has a good deal going with t-zones on the HD2? If it makes you feel better, T-Mobile will probably be forcing users to upgrade their plans starting this Wednesday.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Yeah to me it kinda does, because they know they are screwing the system but continue to do it. Anyways I formally ask that this NOT turn into another debate about the morallity of people using the 10USD plan versus the correct one. Thanks.
[HD2 General] calc:
Bother me, nope.? I don't even have data plan... i refuse to pay for it when i can get free wifi @ my home/campus/work....

The OP asked a question and i voiced his options, all of them.... whether he chooses to to take the dark route or not is his business. In addition i don't see how you can justify calling T-Zones as "has a good deal going" when you are in fact defrauding the network, which i have clearly pointed out in my previous response. My advice is pretty much borderline crack pot shady... but it's been discussed about here numerous times and t-mobile has done nothing to fix his loophole.... yet...
[HD2 General] glebv:
Just to add about the $20 internet plan. I have it for my HD2 (part of family plan), the rep added it when we were renewing the contract and ordering the phones (my sister got the 3G slide which came with the $25 plan). So if you want it, try calling them and talking to a rep, they should be able to add it for you (YMMV).
[HD2 General] anhyeuemmaimai:
T-mobile can block you at any time since they do have a database of their own IMEIs and they know what device is accessing their network by it's IEMI that is transmitted every time the phone accesses the network.

It would be a very simple task for T-mobile to block the non supported devices for that data plan
[HD2 General] papabear:
Well here is what happend when I upgraded one of my lines. I just upgraded to an HD2, a couple days later theytossed on a 104 web plan. Which is fine cuz I want to use the web anyways. when I first was using my HD2 it said that it needed a subcription to access the web, blah blah. So, i changed the wap settings to internet2.voicestream.com and it works great. 3g speeds and everything.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Why did you change to the slower proxy?
[HD2 General] papabear:
The stock epc.tmo doesnt work when you have the 104 (non smart phone plan). The speeds are the same with the internet2 settings. unless you know of a different one that works a well. It works just fine.
[HD2 General] hiway1999:
I had a phone recently, Nokia 5530, and had the 10 dollar internet plan and I noticed depending where I was in the country I sometimes would get full internet access and other times I would get off the standard tzone areas and it would show subscription upgrade required message.

I think it might depend on where you live for this to work. Perhaps the WAP settings might also work.
[HD2 General] mike8010:
There is a way to get the $10 t-zone plan on your HD2

Here is a simple way to get the t-zone on your HD2..

1) Login to your t-mobile account via the web.. register first if you haven't do so.

2) when you login, T-mobile might choose your phone (maybe HD2 already selected).. at this moment, change your phone to any non-smartphone.. like samsung T509 or any non-smartphone as your default phone.

3) go to change service and add the $10 t-zone internet to your plan

4) set your HD2 with the right APN setting you're OK.

5) For me, if you're using internet2.voicestream.com in Winmo works OK and in Android works OK.

This is a cheated way or gray area... Either way T-mobile make extra $$$ from you. I think T-mobile knows this loop hole, but they keep it open because they don't want to upset us cheapie????

my 2 cents
[HD2 General] papabear:
did they get rid of this? I do not see the option anymore.
[HD2 General] hiway1999:
Yes it no longer shows on the site to add internet for phones, only shows 4g service no matter if you change the phone choice or not.

Got a feeling some rep is reading these forums.
[HD2 General] bonestock:
Is this still working for anyone? For the last day I have been getting the upsell subscription required page when I open up a browser.

Edit: Working now.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMagicalSock:
I hit the "Fix Permissions" button in ROM Manager because I was having some force close issues in a couple apps and now my contact pictures don't show up in my SMS threads.

About 90% of my contacts have a picture, so going back and redoing all of them would be really time-consuming. With no recent nandroid, is there anything I can do to fix this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
If you have the stock people app use the export option.

I usually export to sd card and I personally save all my contacts under phone and not google.

Everytime I export and import my contacts with that method the pictures are maintained.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMagicalSock:
Thanks for the reply. If I understand you correctly, you're saying to export my contacts and then import them? Doing that didn't restore them to my stock Sense messaging app. I'll keep tinkering with it though. I appreciate the help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Export your contacts, delete the existing on the phone, then import.

If that doesn't work then it's something a bit deeper.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMagicalSock:
Gotcha. Thanks for the help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] datawiz2012:
Hi folks,

I am going to buy my very first smart phone. I am currently debating between iPhone 4 and Samsung Vibrant Galaxy S (in Canada) Without going into the question og whether I need to get a data plan or not, I have some very specific questions that I would appreciate your words of wisdome on:

1: Is there a free third party GPS app that does not consume data while on the road (i.e. direct satellite connection). Would a paid app such as CoPilot Live 8 still be not good enough because Samsung GPS has reliability issues?

2: Does Google Maps continuously consume data while showing you your route on the road or does it just downlaod the map once and then simply use the gps-satellite channel? I need a good gps system on the phone so that I can have the phone in my backpack and follow the directions via my motorcycle's blue tooth enabled helmet.

3: Does Samsung Galaxy S have capability of turning speech into a text SMS?

4: Is there an alternative to the dreaded Kies for Samsung?

5: From being a complete noob up until a week ago to words like jailbreak, rooting, froyo, etc, I have come a long way and have explored several options. So wondering rooting is even necessary and it it is, is there a Cydia like application for Android. iPhone users use Cydia primarily for installing pirated software such as TomTom.

6: Can I turn off data consumption and use wifi and still receive calls?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] andrewluecke:
Copilot is available for Android too, but in my opinion, Travroute suck. There are plenty of alternatives, but depends on your country. We aren't really too sure how good navigation is on the final froyo either, but car navigation should be fine. Worst comes to worst, you can get a bluetooth GPS.

There are some that read off the directions.. Depends on the app.

There are apparently a few, but maybe best to give it a try yourself at a store, to see what results are like. Speech recognition has a habit of being slightly "meh". With VOIP though, in some countries, short phone calls cost cheaper on VOIP/skype than an SMS though.

For flashing, there is heimdell and odin. Contacts sync with google contacts anyway. You can set the phone too mass transfer mode to expose it as files in normal file browsing tools to copy data/music.

We don't need jailbreaking really because Android is open, whereas Apple screws developers around with restructions. And you can root if you want to, but you only need to do so if you are messing with low level OS stuff.

And unlike iOS, anyone can open an app store for Android, because Apple restricts apps which can be install.

Use Wifi to receive calls? For voice calls, you simply hold the power button, and there is an option to turn off 3G data/HSDPA. Haven't tested it properly, but pretty sure it works the way you want (maybe check the manual). VOIP apps exists too, like Skype and Sipdroid (and in late firmware's, they actually work properly).

Other considerations are:

1) The iPhones are MUCH more restrictive for developers. Apple will tell you they are the most consumer friendly company on the planet, but the harsh reality is, they REALLY aren't.

2) Android is far more customisable than iOS.

3)If you own an iPhone, you should assume you need to use iTunes (say goodbye to flac support, and many other things).

4) You buy from the Android store, I think the purchased apps should also work on any other future compatible android phone. If you buy on the iPhone store, they will only work on future Apple devices.

5) Some people will tell you the iPhone doesn't lag, etc. I tested an iPhone 4G the other day, and this is DEFINITELY untrue.

6) Steve jobs is no better than most politicians. He does consistently deceive people and blatantly lie during announcements. For iinstance, at first he tried to claim there was no antenna issue (and it was simply shonky software), despite antenna experts PROVING there was. The iPhone succeeded solely because people were sucked in by Steve Job's exageration of multi-touch. The first iPhone couldn't even run third party apps.

7) Android is growing quickly. The app store now has over 100,000 apps. Whilst there are less apps than Apple's platform, you'll find that all the good ones seems to be there.

Anyway, my opinion is that consumers should avoid the iPhones.. Another phone you may wish to consider though is the new HTC desire HD.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] datawiz2012:
thanks for your very very detailed reply. Much appreciated. I am still confused about the GPS stuff. Hopefully other people will pitch in as well. I should have phrased my question about turning off data better than I did.

What I'd meant was whether I can turn off 3G so that I don't use internet data while using a GPS app such as CoPilot but would doing so prevent me from receiving/making calls?

Thanks,

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Funkadelick:
I got a new Galaxy S phone, im sorta new. It was working one minute, then the screen went black. Now when i turn it on it goes to the logo screen and galaxy s screen but then goes completely black and doesn't boot into the phone - the bottom 2 lights are on as well.

I can access download mode -- how do i fix this without losing too much stuff ? but I am way too new. Please help

I will donate money to a paypal account if you can help me
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
what model is it? where did you buy it from?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Funkadelick:
i9000m from Bell in Canada

it just went black for no reason , not rooted or anything ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] allotrios:
Sorry mate, I am not familiar with the Canadian flavour of the phone so I am not sure where I could point you at and I don;t want to give you potentially bad advice. If you feel brave, you could check the developer boards. They have instructions about flashing the phone. To keep the most, I would think you should try not to repartitionm, and try flashing the same version of the firmware you are on now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yiannisthegreek:
You have experienced the infamous internal sd card failure that affects our i9000m here in Canada.

All you can do is take it back for exchange or send in for repair. There is no way to fix this on your own.

Sorry for the bad news...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Funkadelick:
Internal SD card error ? WTF ?

is this fixable if I can get into download mode ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Funkadelick:
did a factory reset via download mode

seemed to fix it

should i get the phone replaced regardless ?

how do i know if it's an internal sd card issue ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] foxfire235:
I'm experiencing a similar problem. Can you point me to the link(s) of how you did the factory reset via download mode?

Hi,

please excuse for double posting this but I think I posted in the wrong forum before. Please find my previous post below:

Hi,

this morning I flashed froyo JPK onto my phone (GT-I9000M( and everything was working great until I downloaded a file through dropbox and suddenly my screen went black. I had to take out the battery to restart the phone and then it got stuck in an endless loop of blinking start up logo.

When trying to get into recovery mode I get the message it can't mound /dev/block/mmcblk0p1. I have tried several things I found here on the forums, including going back to stock UGJH2 but still the same.

Any suggestions on what to do? Do I have to send it in? The problem is I bought this phone through ebay as I am living in Australia so not sure if my local Samsung will be of any help.

Additional info:

I think I really screwed something. On another forum someone suggested to use the JM5 ROM and so I did. Now I can't even get my phone into download/recovery mode anymore. Any help on this or do I have to get it fixed in a service centre?

Thanks,

b3n
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
So I'm wondering if I pull my batterystats.bin file from /data/system if I would have to recondition my battery after every Rom flash if I just placed a "conditioned" batterystats.bin file when done flashing?

(sorry if the question sounds a bit confusing, let me know if a clearer explanation/question in needed)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icandy75:
In theory it would work but only if you where flashing the exact same rom. Different roms use different amounts of juice so a file for a different rom would not be accurate. Someone please correct me if they think different.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
ah i see. makes sense. thanks for the reply.
