[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icandy75:
I had the same issue once. Try uninstalling the drivers you have and download and install a fresh set. That worked for me.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuhan:
hmmm... I tried that (numerous times) and it still isn't working. All I get is "USB Device Not Recognized: One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it." The drivers are installed, reinstalled, and re-reinstalled. I even tried to go in and change it to the right drivers myself, but no dice...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
I had this problem, and got it fixed. Download the 64 bit drivers, you can find the link in the vibrant bible, and it should dl as a zip file. Unzip it on your pc, then from your windows device manager, reinstall the drivers for the unrecognized device, and point it at the 64 bit drivers folder you just unzipped. It should load the drivers and be recognized. If other devices also pop up, point them at the same folder. I did this oj a 32 bit win7 system and it worked great. Good luck.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djkdawg:
try a different computer, i have had this happen to me, google how to uninstall ghost drivers or hidden drivers.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuhan:
Wait, I'm confused... what do you mean point it at the 64-bit drivers? I'm not much of a Windows guy...

I've only got the one Windows machine at my house... I can't do anything else until my mom gets back into town this weekend.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
Sorry I assumed you were somewhat of an advanced user. If you are using a windows system, download and unzip the 64 bit drivers I mentioned above. Access Windows device manager from the control panel to view the systems devices. The devices that are not loaded properly will be easy to identify. You the right click on the device, choose "reinstall driver", then "have driver file" (or something very similar, i don't have the specific verbage in front of me), and then select the folder where you unzipped the previously mentioned 64 bit drivers. It should then load the drivers and recognize the device. As a note, you should have your phone in dl mode and plugged in so that windows actively sees the phone.

Hope this helps and its not over your head. I work in IT sometimes my explanations can be too technical, but i tried not to do that here. If your near central colorado I'd offer some in person help at this point. Hope you can get it fixed.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuhan:
ah, thanks... I wouldn't call myself advanced... adept at best. Before I got the Vibrant, I was a HARDCORE Apple fan... Still an Apple fan, but not so hardcore lol
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuhan:
So I tried doing exactly what you said and it keeps saying "Your device drivers are already up-to-date" even though it still shows up as "Unknown Device" and already said "Device Driver Software could not be found"
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
Did you let it auto detect the driver or did you select have disk and then browse to the unzipped driver folder?

Sent from my Vibrant running Macnut R10
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuhan:
I tried both.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Br1cK'd:
At this point, the last advice i have is to completely uninstall all drivers for the galaxy s, from add remove programs, then reboot your pc and try the 64 bit installation again before reinstalling the normal drivers, if that doesnt work, see if you can use a friends pc, install the normal drivers and see if it works on a different computer.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mindstormmaster1:
Im running Darkstones latest rom and I do NOT have a data plan. Tmobile told me I could only get picture texts with a data plan, but then I tried a rom on my HTC G1 and it started working and then I switched to the HD2 and now I can no longer send of receive picture texts. I was wondering does anyone know of a fix for this?

Thank you,

Ethan
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cesjr02:
Simple question really. Since many suspect Gingerbread may not be the major update we previously thought. (Meaning no major overhaul of the GUI, just a well needed polish.) And rumors of added features such as built in video chat functionality. How will this change the current development of CM6? Will Froyo's CM6 enhancements be easily transferable to Gingerbread, or will the CM team have to start from scratch?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkelle4:
I'm no authority on this, but I believe that for the most part it will be easily transferable. I'm sure there will be some features that will have to be tweaked to be compatible, but that's about it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sk63:
It depends on what and how google changed the code. There's a lot of stuff in CM6 that isn't in AOSP 2.2, that said it's not nearly the same level of customization that goes into Sense.

Still, we may have to wait until HTC releases a 2.3 update because of changes needed to the kernel, who knows.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
Lesse here...

Eclair 2.1 = CyanogenMod 5

Froyo 2.2 = CyanogenMod 6

We can safely assume:

Gingerbread 2.3 = CyanogenMod 7

Though even if Nexus One dev phones get Gingerbread this week, the AOSP source won't be released for at least a month or two, and even then, it'll be a few months as all of the CM customizations and tweaks are copied over, applid to the new kernel, etc. etc.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laydros:
CM pretty much starts from scratch for each new version anyway.

To the best of my knowledge, they will basically pull in the stock 2.3 code as a branch when it is available, then through some combination of automatic and manual merging, integrate the CM changes.

FWIW, CM Froyo alphas were available on the order of days (maybe a couple of weeks) after the Froyo code was first available. It didn't take long.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenaut:
so, i put a partition on my sd card for the specific purpose of apps2sd. I went from cm6 to slidemeroot5r1. how do I access the apps that i had saved on my sd card? they don't show up on the phone after i flashed the new rom.

I'm probably overlooking something simple, but any help would be appreciated
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCRic:
Umm, you can't. At least I don't think so since your phone can't see that partition unless you tell it to. I would just restore from a nandroid backup and use titanium backup to backup the apps then when you install the rom you want just restore the apps with titanium.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heybobitsme:
Assuming you wiped when you went from CM6 to SLIDEMEROOT5r1, all your apps would have been wiped as well including, if you have it, your ext partition on your sdcard. That's why you should always use a backup app like Titanium.
[Click Android Development] yash08:
Hello guys,

I have a strange problem. I had root and maverix custom recovery for a while and I was running SPQrom very fine. I flashed back the stock 1.67.405.6 WWE ROM and as expected I lost root and the custom recovery.

Now when I run the 1 click root (rootTattoo) and restart in recovery, I still get the default recovery screen with an exclamation mark. I have the step over and over again and still I get the default recovery screen. How can I get the custom recovery again?

Thanks,

Yash

Edit:

This problem was caused because something was wrong with rooting of the device. Here are the steps I followed to get a custom recovery installed again:

1. Use the one click root apk:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=761507

2. Activate root on my phone with the apk

3. Followed instructions from here http://coolbits.homeip.net/blog/2010/03/09/flash-custom-recovery-for-htc-tattoo/ to manually flash the recovery image.
[myTouch 4G General] mi4kidzmom:
I am coming from a Vibrant and although by the time I bought this phone the Vibrant was laggy, GPS was hit and miss, and allot of apps would force close, it still had a very good camera. I don't understand why this camera at 5mp takes such poor pics. I have a very good camera but sometimes I do forget it, it's too heavy, or I don't charge it so having a nice camera on the phone would be beneficial. Anyone know how to fix this problem?
[myTouch 4G General] devinluck:
You really think the camera is bad? Seems better than the hd2 I had. Have you blown them up on a computer and looked at them or are you just going off the phone? Maybe im just easy to please its really fast and works pretty well
[myTouch 4G General] mi4kidzmom:
No I haven't blown them up I just zoom in from the phone itself. I take the same pic with my husbands iPhone4 zoom in and it is still crisp and clear, with my phone it is very pixelated.
[myTouch 4G General] monnietron:
I saw another post around here discussing this, and in it someone said to change... from widescreen to 4:3? I believe..? I don't have the phone yet so can't look in the phone for ya. It's here in the forum tho.
[myTouch 4G General] markdurant:
I think the pictures are pretty good. Here are a few I took a couple of days ago:
[myTouch 4G General] Kienz:
Speaking of "pop"... Those reds look really nice and deep. Nice choice of images.
[myTouch 4G General] gaww:
Strange. I started the other thread because mine were NOT so good. There are limited settings in the default camera, and I have set mine to the highest resolution and do not see any other adjustments in the setting menu.

At the wide mode, my files were only .6 - 1.2 mb (compressed I am sure). Yours are 3 mb - and much better quality - are you using the OEM camera?

I get MUCH better shots using the 360 Camera app - but not when using the stock camera app. If you are using the stock camera app - is there a setting I have missed?
[myTouch 4G General] InvisibleHero:
I vaguely remember a post that said the camera is not set to 5MP by default. You have to set it to 5MP within the settings.
[myTouch 4G General] gaww:
I set it to 5MP first thing - so-so pictures followed.
[myTouch 4G General] CBConsultation:
I use Camera 360. The uncompressed images look far better than when using the stock camera app.

It's unfortunate that the stock camera app doesn't allow manual compression settings. But that's why we have developers.
[myTouch 4G General] Lockeskidney:
stock camera compresses the s out of the shots.

Go vigenette or camera 360 (all these were taken using either of the 2)
[myTouch 4G General] werk:
heh, I could have been in any of those pics. I was at Don's Bogam BBQ the other day (down the st from pic #3), playing with my new MT4G at dinner.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nchary05:
Hi,

I am new to rooting and recently flashed my hero with VR1.5. Everything seems working fine for few days and suddenly, I am getting below prolems.

1. my network reception is going blank as soon as I switch off wifi. :(

2. phone became very slow and FC few times.

Are these know issues with ROM ? Please advice about item 1, as it is drowning my phone. (sorry if spelling mistakes as my native language is non-english)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arcblade851:
Did you wipe your phone before flashing FroydVilllain?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nchary05:
Yes, I did. I was flashing to org. HTC hero stock rom.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hi-Fi:
i used it since its 1st launch, never experience your problem

backup your apk with titanium backup

do a full wipe

restore apk and data (don;t restore system file)

hope it helps
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OttarA:
Flashing to stock HTC ROM is not the same as Wipe. You wipe it in recovery ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nchary05:
Yes, I think. I did recovery wipe and flashed VR1.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swatsbiz:
Maybe something just went wrong with the install?

... try a full wipe and fresh flash, should fix it
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llvllaster:
Not only u have this prob. Other users had also the same FC issues with this ROM.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f_padia:
I'm using floyo 1.1. 9th just noticed signal dropped to zero after switching wifi off. Is there any solution to this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swatsbiz:
Not sure this is the right thread for you
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f_padia:
well i have the same problem as the first post. so id say i wasnt too far...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
But you're using a completely different rom. You're asking in the wrong place!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btdag:
1. If you mean that when you turn off WiFi you have no 3G for a minute or two - that is completely normal for android as it disables 3G whilst WiFi is enabled. It takes a little while to connect sometimes. If you mean the signal levels to your service provider - that's completely different and a very odd issue to say the least.

2. Slow with FC's usually means something in the wipe didn't work properly or some apps are conflicting. Try a fresh install (without backups if possible) and see if they carry on happening. Then try restoring the backups (after say a week or so) and see if it comes back.

Alot of this is trial and error. We have no idea how your phone is set up and which apps you have installed etc.

I will say that it is not usual to see either of these issues and a wipe and reflash has the best likelyhood of fixing the problems.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
ok so i made an attempt at fixing the buttons today to see if i could make them any brighter and possibly fix the issue with having to press them several times to make them work.

i tore my captivate apart for the first time ever. this was my first time taking a screen off of any phone before so that was pretty interesting, as ive also never had any experience with touch screens or capacitive buttons..

so the outcome? a total success minus one button that i took to much paint off of and made it look terrible, but it does still work, and better than before, all i did was pull it apart and with a precision screwdriver i etched the paint away on the inside, i did make a video of the outcome but not during the process, i realized that my phone is also my camera :( so anyway here is the video, youtube is processing it so it may take a little while before it works

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVHbWyKoI3c
[Captivate General] buddy17:
hmm...it does seem to be a success despite your search button fugg up. I think etching with a screwdriver was a bit aggressive, i think i would have tried an emory cloth or something like that first. But it is good to see that you actually did something about it, congrats man that is awesome
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
make no mistake, i screwed the button up visually, the only reason i call it a complete success is due to what i was going after in the beginning, and that was to make all of them work properly and figure out the root cause of all these issues, now at least we have information about these buttons and why they dont work, its amazing to me that such a small detail can make such a huge impact on performance. hopefully someone here can repeat my actions and learn from my mistakes and get it done properly.
[Captivate General] shengshuyang:
wow, really cool. that irresponsive problem really has driven me crazy...but i'm still brave enough to do this...is it possible to send my phone to samsung and ask them to do it?
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
That's not very likely.

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate General] andars05:
Awesome! I want to try this myself.

Was the paint you etched away distributed across the inside of the case, or was it just spread across the clear buttons? How delicate/skilled of a hand would you say you need?

I'm just trying to get a better idea of what I'll be looking at.
[Captivate General] n7slc:
I'd like to know this as well. Would it be possible for you to tear down the device again and take a pictures for us on the forum to view?

I've been wanting a reason to disassemble my phone and this looks like just the reason.

I agree with one of the posts above, I think emory cloth would be a good way to go. You'd certainly have much better control of how much paint(?) you were removing.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
i dont have any more of a steady hand than most people i would say, i do work on small delicate things at work but i shake and stuff just as much as your average joe,

the paint is does not go across the whole screen it is only in the areas where the buttons are, what makes it really hard is that the paint area is actually larger than the button itself, there are two layers of paint one black (to fill the middle of the buttons) and one gray (for the buttons shape) and where you are looking at it, its extremely hard to see where to etch and where to leave the paint, i didnt think the black was paint so i just started etching away at all of the gray on my first one and thats when i ended up with the screwed up search button, then the rest i payed more attention to the detail, all in all i think it took me about 40 mins, thats break down/video and everything.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
this is a really good picture too look at and pay extremely close attention to the search button and you can see the dip in the paint where you actually need to etch
[Captivate General] andars05:
So just etch where it dips in? Do all the buttons.dip in like that?
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
Yes.

And.

Yes.
[Captivate General] andars05:
Cool! Ill give this a shot later. Thanks for the help!
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
Take pics when your done. And tell us how difficult it was to you..i was more scared than stumped..
[Captivate General] andars05:
Did you have to unglue anything to get to the buttons? I have it apart now, but can't get to the buttons.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
Start from the top of the screen and pry three glass from the back..be very careful.. I didn't scratch mine at all doing it but it did take time
[Captivate General] andars05:
How do you get the screen to stick back? Did you use any adhesive. Im mainly hesitant because I don't want to get dust between the screen and glass.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
The screen and glass stay together so no worries with dust. But it has an adhesive that you can re use
[Captivate General] andars05:
Ill give it a shot later tonight if I have time. Ill be sure to take pictures. Im looking forward to brighter LEDs.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
I'm sorry I'm nit much help I will be better when I get off work
[Captivate General] newter55:
You do knew that the sensitivity can and does change on different kernel/roms? I have run some where physical pressure seems necessary and others where barely touching them activates them.

swyped....and I apologize for not proofreading
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
although i appreciate your information.. i have to totally disagree, ive tried probably as many or more different kernals and roms, including the i9000/vibrants just to play, and ive NEVER had any that actually work well. this has been bothering me since day one, my gps has always work, but i cant overclock even with stock voltages and my buttons dont work. so maybe different batches of captivates have different issues, but maybe like the gps, the ones that work just work, and the ones that dont probably wont ever work... idk
[Captivate General] newter55:
That is odd...i have three, one will not oc at all, one has very bright buttons which I hate, and the one I use all the time for testing does indeed have variable button sensitivity......strange but true

swyped....and I apologize for not proofreading
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
you should completely see if the one that wont overclock will get better gps reception than the others... thatd be awesome info!
[Captivate General] newter55:
Depending on the firmware/modem I am using, they all perform equally well....don't expect good nav laying in cupholder, mount on windshield/vent mount and it is 95% as good as my nuvi, which will obviously work well even laying hidden in the console, or built in nav in wifes van.

swyped....and I apologize for not proofreading
[Captivate General] andars05:
Well, I somehow managed to accidentally crack my screen. I got between the glass and screen somehow and it cracked. Be really careful when prying to not wedge anything between the glass and the screen. The screen is held by an adhesive tape/glue looking stuff around the edges. Even with a plastic tool (I used a credit card), I still managed to scrape some of the paint off the surrounding edges of the glass screen.

It's okay though. I'm a gadget tinker type of guy. I figure I'll mess up from time to time. I ordered a new screen and will install that.

I saw what you were talking about though. I found that if I scraped very lightly with a flat head screwdriver I could get the layer of paint blocking the light without removing the surrounding case paint. I think a mild abrasive tool would work best. They do indeed shine much brighter.

When I get my new screen in I'll detail the whole thing with pictures, including modifying the case for brighter back lights.
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
That's just a "DOH!!" moment... Oh well, live and learn from our mistakes.
[Captivate General] andars05:
Haha, yeah. It happens though. Hopefully others can learn from my mistakes and my breakdown picture guide (when I post it) will be of use.
[Captivate General] insaneturbo13:
3rd times the charm. Or so I hear
[Captivate General] Ben74:
well done, insaneturbo13. the buttons on my cappy drive me nuts. i will attempt this mod as soon as it's better documented.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datapunkk:
Hey guys so I searched the OTA questions posted in this forum but I didnt find what I was looking for.

I have an unlocked bootloader. I recently replaced my custom recovery with the stock one and then I flashed the ERD79 stock rom. Now, from what I read this procedure restores your phone to the original shipping image and therefore I should be good to receive OTAs, right ? But I didnt see anything pop-up for a day..system update said my phone is up to date. So I manually flashed the latest stock rom which I believe is FRG83. I dialed *#*#2432546#*#* and it said checkin succeeded. I did the same thing when I flashed ERD79 and I got the same response but I never received a notification for an update.

Im wondering if I will get an OTA for the latest gingerbread update or will I have to manually flash that too? Im wondering if unlocking the bootloader disables OTAs. Didnt google say people who unlock their phones will still receive OTAs? Do I have to do more to enable OTAs?

Thanks a bunch!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Nobody seems to get OTA's at the moment, no problem with doing it manually and having an unlocked bootloader has no baring on your ability to receive them.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datapunkk:
Ok I just read somewhere that the servers are down :D Hopefully that is the reason why I didnt get anything. Thanks for the quick response
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NyghtGT:
So I want to completely resotre my Evo to stock unrooted (if possible) and wipe my SD card clean of backups, etc...

Looking for the safest method to do this...saw some other threads but they didn't really point me in the direction I wanted...

Reason being i've got a plethora of roms i've flashed, addons, themes, and I just want to revert as close to original stock and clear up space on my sd card so I can build back from the ground up and make things more optimal.

Nevermind, I got it.
