Does anyone have the RUU 3.30 in PC36IMG.zip form?

I have the exe, but for some reason it wont find my phone. The RUU 3.29 finds it fine, so Im not sure whats up there. I have looked around and havent found a link. I would like to go back to the current HBOOT before I return the phone. I noticed doing the update over the air didnt get me the current HBOOT.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runningnak3d:
Run the install and when it bombs don't click exit. You will find rom.zip in %APPDATA%\local\temp\<some dir with today's date and time> (assuming you are on win7 -- if not, just search your machine for rom.zip).

Rename to PC36IMG.zip and you are good to go...

Curious if anyone has purchased any of these, particularly the Book Model. I'm thinking of purchasing one...
[Captivate Accessories] chasesavestheday:
wow, you would really put your phone in that little fanny pack book bag?
[Captivate Accessories] nooomoto:
Please don't...please
[Captivate Accessories] fooldog01:
Im not sure why people who dont own (or apparently like) this holder are posting in this thread. He specifically asked for people who have bought it to chime in, not for snide remarks about it's fashionability. Cmon, guys. We can do better than that around here.
[Captivate Accessories] Jofaba:
Wow, I'm really surprised you guys are dissing on this. This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I still may buy an otterbox, but what's wrong with these? I dropped my Captivate in DC and shattered the screen. Just got it back from Samsung and am all about protecting it. This seems like really good protection for dropping while most wrap-around cases don't even advertise as protecting from drops.

These cases look pretty sharp and will obviously protect from a drop. I've currently got a body glove that my phone slides into, I can't for the life of me find a pic of it online oddly, but it's sortof like these full close systems but it has a window. It's actually not bad at all but it's just slightly too short. The top left and right ends of the phone are unprotected so I have to find a better alternative.

Those of you that don't like these options, what is it that you don't like? They're essentially pda flip cases aren't they?
[Captivate Accessories] norcal einstein:
This is why I don't like it. How many years has it been since we carried Handspring PDAs? Things like PDA filp cases are really antiquated in my opinion, and having a case like that to carry your cell phone in just looks funny. Everyone has moved to silicon/TPU cell phone skins that are minimally intrusive, and these cases are the opposite.
[Captivate Accessories] Jofaba:
But... isn't this essentially a pda? It's a mini-tablet/bar-smartphone. I don't get how it's antiqued at all. Who cares how it looks to other people? Obviously you're welcome to your opinion and I'm entirely curious as to why you think it looks funny.

The more modern skins don't look or even advertise as protecting against drops. So I'm curious if you at least think this will protect against that.
[Captivate Accessories] JPS81:
Considering most TPU/silicone cases look like they came out of Hot Topic, leather cases don't look like a bad idea sometimes.

Also, the open-face style leather cases like this ( http://www.fortte.com/scr/showproduct.php/1411?type=0 ) aren't any more intrusive than a silicone/TPU case. In fact, it's just as soft yet far more secure than a silicone case (and cushions more than a TPU case).
[Captivate Accessories] srt42b:
I was actually looking at something similar from PDair:

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=10100000_10000000_11001013&products_id=31138

It's a little cheaper and personally I think it looks a little better and a little higher quality. I could be wrong. Plus it holds credit/business cards.
[Captivate Accessories] NOFSBIGE:
looking at the open face* what are we in the 1990s? This looks like the case for the old motorola L7's lol
[Captivate Accessories] MikeyMike01:
The vertical pouch looks decent enough. If it has a belt clip it would be pretty useful.

The other ones look like utter crap.
[Captivate Accessories] nooomoto:
Have you seen these? They make phone calls and "fit" in your pocket!

But seriously, we are trying to keep you from looking like a douchebag with your flip open folio-style leather phone case.
[Captivate Accessories] Rongvald:
Just ordered the Thin Pocket case. My plan is to pocket the phone in the case - we'll see how it goes.

I'll write a short review when I receive it, but that won't be for 3-4 weeks since I ordered a customization.
[Captivate Accessories] JPS81:
Ironic you should mention old things not comfortably fitting considering that most suggests for cases here don't comfortably fit in my pocket, including all Otterboxes, which look and feel like you're carrying an 80's era device due to its ridiculous mass, (not unlike the phone in your picture).

I went with a Seidio TPU case, and I just look SO STYLISH AND MODERN with opaque argyle, it totally doesn't look like an accessory to guys who wear cardigans from the metrosexual craze a decade ago.

The guy asked for advice on the case, not fashion tips from people who think cases that look like a Hot Topic accessory are fashionable.
[Captivate Accessories] gorby911:
I can not comment on a Book type case specifically, but I have used Vertical Pouch for my Touch Pro 2 and I can comment on quality of Fortte cases - they are very well made, look very good, fit very nicely, and I have gotten a few compliments on that case. I had the one with no clip (flat back). Their quality is comparable to Piel Frama or Sena but the cost is less.
[Captivate Accessories] nooomoto:
I don't ever recall recommending any case, much less an argyle case, or a case that looks like a "Hot Topic accessory"...

But, never the less...
[Captivate Accessories] nightblazze:
I just got my fortte vertical pouch in the mail today.

I have to say, its well made. The inside lining has a built in pad that cushions the touch screen (see pic below). The size is roughly double the thickness of the phone itself.

It's a little big in my pant pocket, but I like to wear fitted jeans and dress pants for work. My custom case doesn't have a clip as I like to keep things in my pocket.

The phone still moves in the pouch a bit, but the upper flap keeps it secure.

With my captivate in the pouch, I felt safe enough to drop it from about 5 feet off the ground onto the office carpeted floor.

Phone survived!

My case is buck brown, with the gold crest.

It seems I can't post images since I'm a new member... I'll try again from home in 6 hours.

Uploaded pics, sorry for the quality, lol used the captivate camera.. i forgot to balance the settings.

Is there anyway to remove the email addresses from my contact list?

Basicaly me and my mates send each other rendom text(jokes) .... When i want to send that text to other people i have to go through all my contacts checking the boxex for the people i want to text to, Now thats not the issue ... The problem is i have my facebook account linked to my wildfire so all my facebook cantacts emails show up in my contacts list!

Is there anyway i can remove those email addresses from my contact list?

Thank you. :)
[Wildfire General] azahidi:
In that case you have to remove the add book link to facebook. If not it will always display the email add from facebook is automatically displayed.
[Wildfire General] ATOJAR:
But if i do that wont that also remove the facebook mobile phone numbers too? ...

I didnt really wanna do that. I just wanted away with the email addresses in my contact list!

I have created EXT2 partition of 1024 GB, after that try to convert from recovery (Amon_RA) to EXT3 and got no errors.

when try to convert using command shell - adb shell sdparted -ufs ext I got error that the partition is already EXT3
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
It's very possible that the partition is already EXT3, but the ROM you're using doesn't recognize it correctly.

What command did you use?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myakove:
mount, im with MIUI rom but also had this with CM nightly
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
I use EXT2 and it works fine with MIUI or Darktremor Apps2sdext
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myakove:
I know, everything works fine but my partition is EXT3 and recognized as EXT2 by the ROM
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Try to take out the card and read by any Linux PC, check that the EXT3 is indeed valid.

If yes - disregard the mount message. Might be some Toolbox issues.

I've just checked my own report, and unsurprisingly, mount reports my EXT3 as EXT2. No ill effects, though. Using Apps2EXT for a long while now. And I'm on Enomther's, and just checked - Busybox 1.17 mount does the same (lack of) recognition.

There is an FM radio in the ROMS that have Sense (Desire Z) that works with the G2. I have seen several people asking Cyanogen if it will eventually be included in CM6 however I have not seen a definitive response.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattKilla:
I don't see why anyone would CHOOSE commercial FM radio when they have 8GB+ for music they can choose. The radio < the internet and any kind of music you want. FM functionality seems like a non-issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Circledog:
Some people like to listen to the radio. I would love my phone to have the functionality. I flashed a sense ROM but don't like the feel, the only thing I liked was the FM radio. If CM puts it in his build I will be a happy man!!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tankmorph:
It's called CHOICE for a reason. I agree, commercial radio pretty much sucks, but an FM radio can be handy in areas where you get no signal (maybe at work or school?) and want to listen to something other than the audio you have stored on your phone.

The Sense ROMs have the FM radio app in there. You can always just do a NAND backup and try one out.

In response to all the "but why would you want FM?" posts I always see when this issue gets brought up:

The big reason for me is my gym. They have monitors at the front set to different TV channels, and an FM frequency listed below each one. To get the audio, you just tune to that station. I'd like to be able to get that audio back (my old MP3 player did FM) but not so much that I'm willing to switch ROMs. Here's hoping it is something the CM team is working on!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShamsMan:
Hey guys,

Last night I installed ROM Manager and ClockworkMod Recovery on my Roger's Samsung Captivate and proceeded to watch some YouTube videos on how it works. It would appear that this app has made flashing extremely easy. Too easy one might say.

My question is: Is flashing via ROM Manager safe? Better? Or not, compared to the "old school" method?

Any feedback on ROM Manager or flashing in general for my i896 Captivate would be much appreciated!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sulphur4724:
I'd say Rom Manager is downright essential, but your mileage may vary. Besides the uber easy flashes there are a number of utility type things it does, not least of which is it gives us cappy users the ability to make nandroid backups.

As far as safe? As safe as any other method I guess. If you do your homework and the Rom's cook has his/her shizzle together (and most of them do.) you should be good using it to flash.

You'll find with some of the newer kernels that a modified CWM is actually replacing the stock 2e/3e recovery also, so it's not a terrible idea to get familiar with it a bit first.

Just some thoughts, hope they help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShamsMan:
Thanks for the reply dude!

Does ROM Manager automatically present users with the option to backup their existing ROM before proceeding with a flash?

I attempted to back up my current ROM with ROM Manager. It rebooted into a recovery menu, but non of them gave me the option to back up. Just wipe and reboot (can't remember the exact options). Is it possible the Captivate is no supported? How would I enable nandroid for Captivate?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
You open the app and tap flash clockwork recovery, select your phone, and it will proceed to reboot into recovery mode. At this time, you move down to reinstall packages, and it will then load clockwork recovery. It is from there that you can make your nandroid backup.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sulphur4724:
What he said. It sometimes chokes on loading itself. It puts a file named update.zip on your sdcard. When you get to the blue menu (2e recovery) you select reinstall packages and it should load right up. Sometimes it will reboot and get stuck there again. Just do it again and it'll come up.

Yes, before you flash through rom manager it asks you if you want to do a backup. You'll find over time tho that you'll just go straight to clockworkmod and skip the whole rom manager thing. At least I did. And if you go to one of the kernels with the modified cwm in place of the recovery menu rebooting to recovery with rom manager will bring you to the wrong one. The modified has extra stuff like lag fixes and that sort of thing that the original cwm doesn't have.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShamsMan:
Yeah. So far, I find it easier to just use ROM Manager to boot into Recovery and do everything else from there.

I like how it only presents you with ROMs available for your specific device. I look forward to the list populating for the Captivate. It's currently empty.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
the very first time i did this clicked reboot instead of reinstall packages. (i have fat thumbs) now every time i do 'tap flash clockwork recovery' instead of rebooting it just says 'successfully downloaded clockworkmod recovery'. how am i supposed to reinstall if i cant get to the option to do so?

im using a rooted captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
"Reinstall Packages" is in Android Recovery. When you perform the action "Flash Clockwork Recovery", you are downloading update.zip (which is Clockwork). "Reinstall packages" will install that update.zip and bring you into Clockwork.

So for you nawlage, now you can select "Reboot into Recovery" in ROM Manager, and your phone should boot into Android Recovery (blue text). Once there, reinstall packages (you'll probably have to do this twice), and you'll be brought to Clockwork Recovery (green text). If for WHATEVER reason "Reboot into Recovery" isn't working for you, use the 3-button combo to boot into Android Recovery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nawlage:
thanks a load. i had just read this... posted by big99gt:

..and did just that. and it takes me to the clockwork recovery (green text). because of this i dont have to reinstall packages?

also, is the backup option in clockwork recovery (green text) equivalent to nandroid backup?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
Once you are in Clockwork Recovery (green text), there is no more need to reinstall packages.

The "Backup Current ROM" in ROM Manager makes a nandroid backup.

[General Questions and Answers] hellsreach:
I am trying the get my Viewsonic G Tablet up and running.

As of now, I have it rooted. I'm using AndRootFile to TRY to move files to various System folders, to install them.

Problem 1)The files I need are in a Folder called G Tablet on my SDCard1 (internal storage, not actually an SD Card). Though AndRootFile sees every other file and folder in the SDCard folder, it doesn't see G Tablet. Every other file manager does, but AndRootFile doesn't. That is odd, of course.

Problem 2)This is where my noobism really comes out. Even though AnfRootFile claims to be a bit of a one stop shop file system explorer (allowing copying and moving of files), I do not no how to actually copy a file. I press and hold and get no pop-up menu. There is no "move," copy," or "edit" feature when hitting the menu tab. The small selection of features that pop up with the menu tab are unlabeled, but after trial and error to figure out what they actually do, not a single one actually allows any type of management of files or folders, except to make a folder R/W -- not that I can actually DO anything with that information since I cant move anything around.

HELP!!
[General Questions and Answers] hellsreach:
