Edit: added that line with root explorer and cleared dalvik and no go...was worth a try I guess

'nuther noob question: Does changing that 270 line to "true" enable support for both 180 and 270, or does it just switch landscape support from 180 to 270?

I suppose I could just try it, but I'm being lazy :D
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
180 is part of 270 so I'm just not getting what you're asking
[Epic 4G General] dwallersv:
I'm on Syndicate with the Lucy Xtreme Kernel.

Like stock, it only rotates to landscape when turned 180°. When turned 270°, the display stays portrait.

Question is, if I make the change to build.prop file discussed here, will that add landscape rotation for the 270° orientation so that the display will change to landscape for both 180° and 270°, or will it replace 180° with 270° as the landscape orientation, disabling 180°?
[Epic 4G General] Zeinzu:
it doesn't disable 180, it just adds 270
[Epic 4G General] Fenir8:
Froyo

Any updates to this for froyo? I find the 270 rotation to be incredibly annoying. I am aware this may make me "weird", as it seems to have been touted as a feature, but for me it's more of a hindrance (makes my have to hold the phone JUST SO).

Would really appreciate any thoughts :).

[Q] Bricked? Stuck on either white AT&T screen or grey, frozen battery screen, no USB

While trying to install Cognition v2.2b3 via Clockworkmod (from stock at&t 2.1 froyo) something happened mid-install and my phone ended up rebooting, and I have not been able to turn it on since.

-When attempting to power on normally, phone shows white AT&T screen and hangs there

-When attaching USB, phone shows battery screen but battery is all grey and rotating progress icon is frozen. Does not appear to be charging.

-Computer does not recognize phone in any state. Latest USB drivers are installed and I have had no issues connecting via USB previously.

-Cannot get into download or recovery mode using any volume/power button combination or through adb. Also tried attaching USB with ODIN running while attempting button combinations, inserting/removing battery etc, still nothing.

Has anyone else experienced this? Anything else I should try?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] votum:
Go into Download mode, hold both volume buttons down and plug your phone into USB. If it doesn't work than pull the battery and try again.

If that doesn't work keep trying until it does. I'm serious, it took me like 40 tries last night to flash stock with the 1 click and then finally get cognition running (that only took one flash)

Odin is a piece of crap, it works maybe every 10th time for me. I've never used the rom manager to install roms, always use clockwork recovery. Less to go wrong if your in recovery mode I suppose.

But literally just keep trying until it works o.0
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romanenkoa:
Hi. I've experienced exactly the same this night. Try this: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=775911 it helped instantaneously.

BTW, you really need to wait at least 10 secs after removing battery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BEARFIST:
I have the exact same problem.

My battery screen shows up with nothing but a flash loading icon and a grey battery. When I simply turn my phone on its stuck in ATT boot screen. I tried the instructions many times trying to get into download mode but right when i put it in the battery while holding down up/down/power it simply just shows the "frozen battery charging" screen again.

Getting past 1459 MHz is an achievement.

Im running 1459 -100mA havent tried to push it past that,but a lot of people can't.

@roopney you use setCPU min setting 245 MHz and set scaling on demand.

[Vibrant General] jmatic:
I am on Ubuntu 10.10 and connected to internet via wifi on a TrendNet usb wifi adapter.

Whenever I connect my Samsung Vibrant in debugging mode, my internet connection drops and I have to restart to get internet back. But I dont know if anyone would be able to help me with that.

But I think that even though the internet goes out, my phone is connected in debugging, and maybe I'll have to do without internet.

What I really need though is any info on how to install Samsung Vibrant Drivers for ubuntu to be recognized in adb?

By the way... I used this tutorial to install adb

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=537508

I think I got most of it done but adb does not see my vibrant... please help... :confused:

Thank You very much
[Vibrant General] jmattp:
There are no drivers. You just plug it in with USB debugging turned on, change directory to your AndroidSDK/tools folder and use "./adb" (without the quotes) to do commands.

If you get ???????? Permision Denied, unplug your phone and enter:

sudo ./adb kill-server
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Ok followed your directions. Now adb devices gives me

??????????? no permissions.
[Vibrant General] jmattp:
So unplug the phone, type in "sudo ./adb kill-server" plug it in again, then do "sudo ./adb devices"
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Yea did that like 4 times. "List of devices attached"shows nothing... ?

I may try restarting the computer now...

Edit: do I always have to use ./

I think just adb works. Both works. What does ./ do ?
[Vibrant General] jmattp:
Unfortunately, I cannot be of any further help. That's always worked for me so I never had to take any other steps. I never had to create or edit any configuration files; I usually just kill the server and start it again when I run into that problem. Sorry.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
I went through it when I got my phone, except the internet connection drop

[Vibrant General] jmatic:

[Vibrant General] jmattp:
There are no drivers.

It worked out of the box for me. I don't know why it doesn't for some other people.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
BTW,

./command means execute the commend in the current directory if it is not in your $PATH or before $PATH is looked up ;)

I added

export PATH=$PATH:/home/myhome/android/tools

to my .bashrc file so I do not have to go into ~/android/tools directory to execute adb
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
I'm trying this but I can't find my vibrant in "lsusb"
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
USB debugging enabled?

Try different USB port if available.

Before you plug in the phone run

tail -f /var/log/messages

and plug in the phone, anything comes up in terminal window?
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Yea mine is also set up to run w/o going to the directory. So I guess, I don't have to use ./
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
What do I look for in lsusb? Something that says vibrant or Samsung ?
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
I didn't use lsusb, I was tailing the /var/log/messages when I was setting it up.

In lsusb you should be able to see the vendor ID, 04e8 should be Samsung
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Yesss. It worked... tried a different usb port and it worked. I used that code to see if it came up 1 of them worked. I see my device in lsusb now. Let me do the rest and will update.

Internet problem still remains. Maybe its the usb port. Weird though. I'll restart and see if the different usb port fixes the internet issue. :-)
[Vibrant General] Ashex1:
You may need to create a udev rule for your phone to get usb debugging working correctly.

Create a rule /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules

Put this in it:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666"

Or if you're lazy download and run this script I wrote to do it.

Edit: nvm looks like you got it working.
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Thanks though. I got the tip from another forum. Looks like yours says 50-android.rules ... I made a file that said 51-android.rules.

Works though.
[Vibrant General] Ashex1:
Good to know. The number bit is rather arbitrary, it just specifies priority.
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Thanks lqaddict

That different USB port did all the trick. It even fixed the internet problem.

Its really weird that this usb port does not work. I guess that's what you get when you get the motherboard free with the cpu... LOL :D
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
Are you able to use adb now?

Great! Glad to be of help.

Enjoy!
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Well... I learned something new today. :)
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:

[Vibrant General] jmatic:
I guess it works... I don't know how to test to make sure... But

gives me a device that was not there before... which I'm pretty sure is my phone. Do you know of any other way to test? or anything fun to do with it? :)

Thank You very much though
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Fo sho. Linux and the open-source community is the best thing to happen to my computer and now my phone... :)
[Vibrant General] jmatic:
Ok... I know it works now...

I just adb reboot my phone... and it works.

Thanks everyone for all the help. Appreciate Much.
[Vibrant General] lqaddict:
adb logcat - useful debugging issues like force closures, grabbing URL's for OTA updates, etc

adb reboot recovery - reboot your phone into recovery mode

adb reboot download - reboot your phone into download mode

adb push file /phone/location - pushing files directly to your phone

adb pull /phone/location/file - get the file from your phone into your computer's current directory

adb install app.apk - install app.apk directly from your PC to your phone

adb shell - connect to the shell on your phone :)

[Vibrant General] the3dman:
Here is a quick and easy to get ADB working everytime on any version of ubuntu above 9.04.

Step 1: Open the terminal and type: wget dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r07-linux_x86.tgz (Downloads The SDK with ADB)

Step 2: Then type: tar xvfz android-sdk_r07-linux_x86.tgz && cd android-sdk-linux_x86 (Extracts the archive)

Step 3: After that type: sudo mv tools /usr/local/share/android-tools (Moves the sdk tools to your local system folder)

Step 4: Now type: sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/android-tools/adb /usr/local/bin/ (Makes a symbolic link to the adb executable)

Step 5: Then type: sudo adb devices (This will start the adb server and search for connected devices)

Step 6: You should now see this in your terminal:

List of devices attached

T959730f48f7 device

Everytime you close the terminal if you wish to open adb again you will need to repeat step 5 or type: sudo adb start-server in the terminal.

sorry for starting a new thread on this. but i tried reading all OTA threads and still confuse

so the new update is the gingerbread? i thought ginger bread is 2.3 ?

also besides wifi calling and tethering, what else is added after the update?

thank you

again, sorry for my noobness
[G2 and Desire Z General] rhodes588:
Gingerbread hasn't been released yet. It was rumored to be release with the nexus "n" from samsung. This update included a new radio for better connection, wifi calling, wifi tethering, and a couple of bugs such as no lock screen noise.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hectorinwa:
The OTA isn't Gingerbread. It's Froyo.Sprinkles. :-)

thank you for the replies.. its because ive been hearing about gingerbread so i thought that was the update.

I woke up to the update this morning and instantly updated it. Its defe
[G2 and Desire Z General] cam_hamlin:
Opps...its not 2.3 yes and it brings everything stated above, but I believe it fixed the random reboot problem also...I work in a building where I get up to only 2 bars of reception if that and my G2 would constantly reboot all day but today I did not have 1 reboot...we'll see how it goes these next few days...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bishybob:
You could 'try' going to your phones dialpad and entering *#*#2432546#*#* and see if it offers it again, or shows up under about phone - system updates.

If not, then you may want to install it manually. There are plenty of good instructions all over this board and the web on how to do that. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Willie133:
What exactly does putting that in the dial pad do? My update also disappeared and when I click those numbers it says Checkin succeeded. I go to phone and system updates and it says my phone is up to date -_-

I noticed when I check under build number it says 1.19.531.1

Should I just try to do a manual update?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bishybob:
Yeah if the checkin doesn't work then do the manual update.

The checkin basically asks Google servers if there are any updates pending for your phone. But they set lists and if you are not on it at the time it won't offer the update.

I did the manual update and it worked just fine. Was easy and didn't take long. Just make sure not to mess with your phone while it is updating. Some people see the green update screen and pull battery after a few mins.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bishybob:
I can usually browse the web and use data while I'm on a phone call.

Tonight I tried it and had no data connection until disconnecting the voice call. Can anyone who has not installed the OTA verify that it is still working? Or anyone with the OTA? Maybe I'm just crazy and am remembering something that didn't happen? No, I'm sure I could do both before.

I would hate to lose it this feature.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rhodes588:
Works for me.. I've heard people say this happend before the update too, but I've never had any issues with it. Best thing to do is call tmobile to help you. It might have something to do with a weak signal, or not enough signal to handle both at the same time.

Have you tried using wifi calling and then browse the web through your wifi? That would prove it was somehow related to network signal.

My net won't work on Edge during a call, and is kind of laggy on 3G.

Sent from my T-Mobile G(dos)
[G2 and Desire Z General] xile6:
U can only use data and voice with 3g/4g.

Edge uses the same stream as voice so you cant do both on edga data.

But I always use data and voice, mainly when looking up addresses or phone numbers
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bishybob:
So maybe it was because I was on an Edge only network at the time of the phone call? I'll have to experiment more. To tell the truth I hardly make any phone calls with my cell phone.

This was all during a 35 minute trip across town so it's hard to believe it's on Edge the entire time since I have really good H access around town.

I'll call T-Mobile soon if it doesn't fix itself.

I've also been using a SIM that came with my Sidekick which was two phones ago. Going to also ask them if I am on the best web plan.

Thanks for the help.
[G2 and Desire Z General] nyuhsuk:
I have noticed this problem on my HD2 for a while now. I am sitting on a nice 3G signal and the moment a voice call connects, my data connection dies. it does eventually drop to Edge or GPRS but bounces back the instant I'm off my call. it's really consistent as in the moment I connect, it goes.

I've seen this behavior on both my Windows and Android builds on my HD2.

I'm starting to think this is either a hardware issue or perhaps a greater T-Mobile one.

Any thoughts?

[EVO 4G General] Last-Chance:
I think this should be stickied or at least put somewhere so people see it.

In order to prevent from losing rsa keys make sure that you use amonra recovery. DO NOT use clockwork. Clockwork does NOT save your wimax.img file which contains the keys. If for some reason you lose your keys and have only clockwork backup then you WILL NEVER be able to get the keys back.

I repeat, when making backups, use amonra, do not use clockwork.

I like clockwork as a recovery tool, but it doesn't back up rsa keys.

[EVO 4G General] ryohei47:
i dont see how that is "bashing" on koush. but that is a good idea, using amon ra 1.8 ensures your rsa keys are safe.
[EVO 4G General] ImmortalLuD:
What's an easy way to find out if I've lost mine? When I first got my Evo, I remember making a backup with Clockwork, then getting rid of Clockwork for Amon, then flashing some RUU to get my phone back to stock and starting over with Amon again...

clockwork to amonRA if unrEVOked

I used unrEVOked to root my EVO, so I have clockwork. I was wondering if I can switch to AmonRA? (I believe this is what I used on my HERO, and it worked great). I have had a couple problems with Clockwork already. I thought I saw that AmonRA was not compatible if rooted with unrEVOked, can anyone confirm otherwise?
[EVO 4G General] david279:
Yea you can switch. I did it right from the clockwork app.

Still 8pening from my supersonic on the xda app.
[EVO 4G General] DomSim:
i dont understand what all the fuss was about? wasnt the only way to corrupt the keys was to flash a wimax update? or unrevoked 2 or something borked some phones.
[EVO 4G General] ImmortalLuD:
I've used every ROM out there. I'm using MIUI right now, so no biggie, but I go back to Sense ROM's quite often.

All it does, is constantly scan for a signal. It basically sticks on that setting. I tried deleting the wimax file under /data/misc/wimax, and let it recreate itself, but nothing works.
[EVO 4G General] Last-Chance:
no. you can lose them by flashing aosp roms and some kernels as well.

[EVO 4G General] 1Brite1:
bump.....yes, it can happen and if you didn't use Amon's recovery and put the nandroid files onto your computer...you are SOL....and have to return the phone for a replacement. I got my replacement phone, backed up WiMax files onto computer and then did Amon's. It does back up your WiMax settings and you can then flash any type of rom you want and just go back to your original nandroid if something goes wrong. Not sure why this is not listed on a higher priority except a lot of people don't have 4G coverage yet so they don't care.
[EVO 4G General] wase4711:
wish I would have done that before losing my RSA keys..

I am 120 days into my contract, and did NOT buy the Sprint monthly insurance plan, so the only way to get a replacement phone, is to restore to factory, unroot, ship the phone to HTC, they inspect it/repair it/replace it..

I would be without a phone for weeks, so this is not an option..

Next time, I will use amonra to back up the wimax partition..
[EVO 4G General] ImmortalLuD:
How do you guys backup your wimax partition?... I don't understand this.

Plus, if you lose your keys, is it ever possible to get on a 4G network? I can still get 4G with my original backup, (this backup took place after I did a full restore and install AMON). But I still cannot get this thing to work in any other Sense ROM. :mad: I'm running out of time to return the phone within' my 30 days, I just don't know if there's anything left for me to do. It still says I have my key!
[EVO 4G General] david279:
amon 1.8 backs up your wimax keys. No keys no 4g. There are ways of fixing it if you do lose your keys but it would require you getting a wimax backup from another phone and putting it on your phone and hacking the wimax mac to match it. This would leave the phone you got the keys from unable to get on 4G.
[EVO 4G General] ImmortalLuD:
Well I'm passing the command "grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0"... I just don't know if this tells everything. Is there any other way to find out if my 4G should be working or not? Any other commands or files I should be looking at?
[EVO 4G General] markbo2000:
I did not see a post of whether you checked your mac address or not. Make sure your mac address for wimax under hardware information matches the mac address under the battery. If it doesn't you would need to change the mac address back or warranty phone. My mac address got hosed and I brought to Sprint for warranty replacement. Had a new one in 2 days.
