Anyone knows how to enter recovery mode on Optimus one?
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rotorto:

aint working on mine...
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSuda:
I tried vol down + home + power when my phone was switched off and voila, it got reset :( . Does not matter much as I am playing with it and shoud be ready for consequences :) But this is not what I expected to see.

What did I do wrong? I tried using vol down + home + power when phone is ON unlocked/locked both, did not do anything.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] owunstorf:
Install the custom recovery, then the 3-button-combo should work.

With stock firmware, I think you can't enter recovery...
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSuda:
I am hearing this (Custom Recovery) for first time, I don't know how I missed it. :| Thanks, will try that too.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rochasdv:
I was having the same problem, so I downloaded on Google Play the "Rom Recovery", inside app I download the Recovery.

Fine, now [ Home + volume donw + power ] enters into custom recovery.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rharshit:
Reboot into Recovery

You first have to install Custom Recovery, The easiest way is to download Rom Manager and flash recovery from there (your phone should be rooted for that).

After the recovery is successfully flashed, you can reboot into recovery from there itself (there is an option for that).

Or if you want to manually reboot into recovery, shut down the phone and press and hold Power + Vol up + Home keys.

If it didn't work, again shut down the phone, turn on the phone and as soon as you see the LG logo, press and hold Vol UP/DOWN + Home keys (no need to press or hold the Power key).
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alessandro_testing_things:
Guys, i was having the same issue on mine. Luckly i'm as dumb as i am smart and i kept trying... What happened on mine was that i was using the custom recovery named "TWRP - 2.8.3".. Specifically in this version, the shortcut keys combo to access the recovery mode is with Vol UP+home+power. Hope i have helped you! See ya!
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niral.naik:
Idiot you have to install recovery first than use this key sequence.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSuda:
Oh the irony of calling me idiot and you don't realize this is a post from 14th February 2011. duh.

I ended up trying at least 10 roms until I finally went back to stock V20 from LG which worked best of all in long run. Later bought multiple android devices like HTC M8, LG G4, V10 etc. and played with them.

Also I was new at the time of the comment, starting with my first android phone and all. Just thought I would try whatever I could find to play with the phone. Also my post clearly shows I understood the risk and was amused at my stupidity myself.

[Captivate General] djfrost40:
I really love my Samsung Captivate phone from ATT. It's one of the better phones i have had from ATT...mind you not the best but one of the better phones. Recently I have become extremly frustrated with the whole froyo update situation. First the official release was going to come out in September then pushed back to November and now from what im hearing not until December through a OTA update from ATT. When I got my phone I was told by the ATT rep that an update from 2.1 to froyo 2.2 would becoming soon. I went on ahead and got the Captivate against my better judgment. That was this past summer and i paid 199.99 to upgrade. Well now it's November and all we get are rumors about an update that may or may not happen. Now that same captivate is selling for 129.99 at Best Buy. Now I feel ripped off, not only from ATT but now from Samsung. For now on whenever I purchase a new phone I will buy the phone based on what it can do at that time not based on what it might be able to do later on down the line, that way i won't be so frustrated. My older brother has an iphone 4 and now im really starting to get upset because now he is streaming netflix movies and doing a host of other things with his phone that my phone may or may not be able to do. I know that developmentally the iphone is limited but...you get what you pay for out the box and your not waiting for the phone to be able to do something else later on down the line. Im seriously thinking of just caughing up the money and picking up an iphone 4 from the Apple store this weekend. If I do that then I will give away my Craptivate to anybody who wants it because i wouldn't feel right charging someone for it being as though it's already outdated with 2.1 firmware on it. :(
[Captivate General] Diamond_dawg:
Ill buy it if you want to sell it
[Captivate General] skinien:
First, you shouldn't be upset about the price dropping. All electronics have a dramatic price drop after a release. You should expect that.

Second, there is a Froyo update coming out for the phone. No doubt about it. We have already seen it released for the international version. We have two leaked releases for the Captivate. If there wasn't an update coming out, Samsung wouldn't be spending the time in making these builds. Also, you bought a Captivate with 2.1. The box doesn't say, Android 2.1 with a 2.2 update coming soon.

I also wouldn't call Android 2.1 "outdated". Compared to Android 2.2, yes it is outdated. But compared to other mobile operating systems, it's advanced. I cannot think of anything iOS can do that Android 2.1 cannot.

Now, with regard to applications: this last year has been huge for Android. They now have the volume of users and where there's volume, the developers can make money. You speak of Netflix, they will be releasing an Android app in Q1 of next year.

It could be that this phone is too advanced for you. iPhones are great and easy to use. If you don't understand all of the enhancements that Android brings, then maybe an iPhone is best for you. If being able to stream Netflix NOW instead of 2 - 3 months from now is that important to you, then get an iPhone and trade off:

Open source goodness

Awesome community support

Phone customization

Flawless google integration

More hardware options (you're not stuck with just one style phone)

Mass storage capabilities

You're not dependent on iTunes

File structure access

Build your own apps (google app inventor)

Up to 48 GB of storage

Replaceable battery

$5 monthly insurance (at&t doesn't offer insurance for the iPhone)

REAL multitasking

Memory management (If you choose to manually do it. Android is great at managing memory itself.)

The awesome Widgets

Notification bar

Oh, and the list above doesn't even mention any of the infinite possibilities if you chose to root your phone.
[Captivate General] joeshmoe08:
My question is why do you need the "official release"? The leaked version is probably just as good (I saw probably since OTA isn't out). I love it and am not really looking forward to the official one. Also most android phones are not in 2.2 so you really shouldn't feel outdated. By the way Amazon gives this phone for free (well 1 cent to be exact).:)

Edit: Didn't see above post; says it all better than me.
[Captivate General] j-wamback:
Frustrating, ain't it? Also part of the fun of the gadget.

Heck, searching for news on when the update'll be released is how I get through the workday! (I've also spent too much time flashing different incarnations of Cognitian's ROMs - Which are great, by the way).

The update will come, then we'll all be clammoring for Gingerbread!
[Captivate General] WD333:
@skinien - Great reply!
[Captivate General] saint168:
Not being able to watch Netflix movie on your phone really has nothing to do with Samsung, AT&T or the Captivate. Netflix decided to release their Android version later than the other platforms so there is nothing anyone can do.

So the real question is why do you need 2.2 right now? What capability are you looking for that will only work in 2.2? Personally, the only thing I need 2.2 for is voice dial over bluetooth.
[Captivate General] alex4lex:
cool story bro
[Captivate General] polarbee:
There will always be an OS, hardware, phone coming soon/out right now better than what you have. *****ing about what you have is certainly an option. Not a good one, IMO, but definitely an option.
[Captivate General] tmotytn:
I am still using stock 2.1, rooted, with sideloaded Wireless Tether and Flash 10.1, and launcherpro hides the bloat.

With the exception of being able to moves apps to the sd, what is missing?

Who needs FroYo, anyway?
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
Well..if you will feel bad selling it.I'll gladly pay you for the shipping of it to my home. Feel free to get the I-phone if this is what you are wanting to do. They work great for what they are.I bought both of my sons theirs last August when I got 2 Captivates for my wife and myself.So I can always use a spare one:D

Your not alone in your feelings of anger over not getting what was promised,I too am a bit pissed off about it as well. I do know that in time it will be available in a official capacity..but in the mean time I'll wait it out like everyone else is doing that wants it. Sooner or later there will be a completely stable custom rom for it that isn't a PIA to load and has everything working properly on it.This is what I am looking forward too,but again it is a waiting game for me and many others..

Feel free to PM me your mailing address for the shipping cost if you elect to give it away..

Thanks

Mac

Screw the official release, get froyo now!. nothing like free tethering. Im sorry but next flex streaming? who cares i got flash! i get hulu streaming lets see an iphone do that.. my droid takes a poopoo on the iphone.
[Captivate General] nooomoto:
There are plenty of awesome, free ROMs here. Try one on for size before you go spending hundreds of dollars to be told what you can or can't do with the phone you just bought.
[Captivate General] pobinghun:
You have word reference on android, not even a close one on iphone. I dont really use my ipod touch to watch netflix. It gets stuck a lot and the screen is way to small. The only netflix app I used is netflix on windows media center. Why are you frustrated about netflix on a small screen now. And by the way, we have swype keyboard, it if not even on evo 4g. And my rooted phone has many paid apps and games on it, but I got them for free. You never need to jailbreak it to install some free games.

Iphone doesn't have the xda app, hahaha, just a joke.
[Captivate General] sportedwood:
Others have said it but if your "smart" enough to make your way to the XDA developers forums you should have no problem flashing one of the 10+ 2.2 roms in the android dev subforum.

Who's going to really use the official att 2.2 with all its bloat ware anyway?
[Captivate General] mac208x:
Iphone is for kids that want to show off their fart apps at school and for grandmas and grandmas who cant use a phone. On the other had captivate is for people who like to flash, unbrick their phones and explore the open world of android with will be the furture of mobile devices. Iphone has been the same for the past 3 years and people get horny when a new iphone comes out and it caj do copy paste wow!
[Captivate General] stewart2568:
Oh okay! you see thats why i like this website for folks like you! so there is a sample of froyo available to download from this site? Thats nice!! i will look for it and give it a try. I think i can hold off on getting rid of it not too mention 400.00 for an iphone is pretty steap....lol!!! So i guess for now im still a android phone owner. I just need to be a little more patient i guess. But tonight when i get off work ill be trying to do the root thing on my phone so that i can tryout the preliminary froyo on my captivate. Thanks for the information I appreciate it.
[Captivate General] stewart2568:
Yeah your right, ive been reading a lot of responses to my post and from what i gather i have the better phone in the Captivate vs the iphone 4. I think i will keep it. Plus i just heard that you can root the phone and add a sample of froyo that should hold me over until the official froyo arrives. So Thanks a lot for your advise. I will be keeping my Captivate...not too mention 400.00 for an iphone is crazy.
[Captivate General] stewart2568:
LOL!!!! okay okay guys I get it! I have the better phone vs the iphone 4, I will be keeping my Captivate, i just have to be a little more patient with it thats all. Im excited about trying out that froyo sample available from this site though. I'll be giving it a try tonight! thanks for all the information!
[Captivate General] stewart2568:
Your right, i have the official 2.1 ATT rom now loaded with stuff i don't even use...lol!!! I think i will be keeping my Captivate and trying out a couple of those new roms on it. Thanks guys!!! thats why i love this site!!!
[Captivate General] stewart2568:
I think I will try one of those ROMS. I didn't know that they had modified ROMs on this site but now im excited to try one or maybe even a few! Thanks for all of the good advise!! have a great turkey day!!!
[Captivate General] poliziano:
Well, I feel exactly like the OP right now. I used an iPhone for many years and when it was time for an update, I jumped ship because I saw the huge potential that Captivate has (or had). Unfortunately I grew frustrated. It's not a matter of "give me froyo or give death"; it's a matter that the Captivate doesn't do what it is supposed to do out of the box. Besides the lack of support from Samsung/Att (I don't know who to blame at this point), it does not play gapless, the GPS doesn't work, the WiFi at home is stuck on "acquiring ip address". So, at the end of the day, it does not do what I expected it to do. Yes, I can tweak it any way you want it but this should be done to make it better not to fix something that was broken to begin with.

Ps: sorry for my English which is not my first language.
[Captivate General] AvengerBB:
We have never been told anything but by the end of the year for the Froyo update for US. Many people were taking twitter updates from the UK and other Samsung divisions and equating them to the US.
[Captivate General] avgjoegeek:
Hmm...

/rant

I was a long time iPhone user - I had the first gen then the 3g and although I loved the devices I hated how "locked in" I felt with them. Sure everything "worked" but I couldnt do much with it. I'm a tweaker by nature though :)

I received my Captivate as a Birthday gift from my brother a few months after it was released. I read the BS about the issues - so I knew ahead of time what I was in for. I didn't care about Froyo. It was the only "high end" android phone that ATT offers.

So... I went SHOPPING AROUND - and lo and behold there are a

TON

of deals for the phone. I ended up getting it for $149.00 on Amazon as I had to upgrade - instead of the offered

$49.00

for a new user.

Although I will agree the iPhone 4 works right out of the box... I don't miss it. Thankfully for me GPS wasn't a key feature for a smartphone for me. Or flash on the camera. I wanted a fast phone that had android on it.

So I did my RESEARCH and SHOPPED AROUND - I knew what I was buying! (well my brother anyways ;))

As with anything buyer beware. I know a lot of people want to jump on the Android band wagon - but I swear (and I'm not directing this directly to the OP) it seems nobody does their research before purchasing anything nowdays. Then they go to some popular website instead of the manufacturer and complain about it.

/rant over
[Captivate General] sportedwood:
OP - Try the cognition as your first foray into custom roms, tons of support and if you get stuck follow the " join us on irc/chat" link in the cognition post and ask away, someone will help you out.

Also +rep for not just flaming and bailing, but coming back and reading the replies and giving it a shot. Your a android guy and you know it :cool:

Good luck (wont need it) and just ask via PM or irc if you get lost.

[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:

Rebelsim Beta firmware v1.3 doesn't work with office 2.2.

it's worked on 2G, when I turned 3G on, can only make phone calls but cannot receive any and the R is on.
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
Did you follow the original instructions to re-put the sim in an unlocked phone with all data and 3g turned off? The rebelsim only communicates with the phone to trick it into thinking it has the correct sim, apps shouldn't interfere at all?? There was a problem with the old v1.1 due to the baseband being incompatible which caused no 3g/data and some call problems (same problem now when upgrading to 2.2). I'm waiting for my programmer to arrive then i will try it out :)

I've just ordered one of these:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320619139532#ht_2136wt_1139

I hope it works for you. I bought a 54 in 1 veho vsd 229 memory/sim reader from a local mobile phone accessory shop but i cant get the rebelsim software to recognise it :( i ordered the scr 3320 official programmer from a1tech on ebay yesterday so fingers crossed it arrives soon...will let you know :)

I got to borrow a programmer from a friend and I got ok when I flashed the new 1.3 beta firmware. Is there a way for me to check that the RebelSim actually has the 1.3 beta firmware loaded? Want to make sure it's upgraded before I upgrade my Streak.

Edit: The programmer I tried with didn't work.
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
I dont think you can coz theres no UI or anything to check, i would run the update and try coz if it isnt 1.3 then you can always easily update the rebelsim after froyo :) using v1.2 doesnt interfere it just doesnt work :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] BrumBrum74:
Upgraded and now I wont get to go on any network. So it means I need a proper programmer or get an unlock code.
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
You can flash straight back to o2 2.1 8105. Oh dear, what programmer did you try? I tried researching and found out it needs to be a pkey thats iso compatable.
