[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
I assumed so but I also assumed that if the boot loader hasn't changed one could /theoretically/ flash the 2.3.2 sbf and /possibly/ be okay. I wouldn't recommend any D2 G users to flash ROMs or anything until the SBF specifically for the D2 Global is released. I would suggest rooting and getting a backup made if the user want's to eventually flash ROMs.
[Droid 2 General] hamabucon:
I have tried to flash the 2.3.2 but everything seem wrong and I have the Critical error 0047
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
Did you make a backup with koush's bootstrapped clockwork recovery? if so you should try and restore it. otherwise you might be out of luck until the sbf drops.
[Droid 2 General] hamabucon:
Maybe I'm out of Luck :(. But is there a chance to update the new ROM using the stock Recovery ? . I saw there are the option apply: update.zip
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
It will only work if you have the rom signed with moto's keys or it won't get through. That's why we use koush's bootstrapped clockwork. Because it doesn't have signature verification. Well it does but we can toggle it off.
[Droid 2 General] hamabucon:
Can you estimate when the SBF for D2 G release ?
[Droid 2 General] dotmike:
I have the same problem with the droid 2, except i mistakenly flashed with the droid 2 global without really thinking about it. I'm stuck at the M logo, and i've tried doing all of the above but i cannot get into clockwork recovery. Any suggestions? if I bricked my phone, how would i go about getting it fixed from verizon?
[Droid 2 General] hamabucon:
I remembered that i install the stock ROm deodexed for Droid 2 Global . But why my phone bricked ? Is that the problem from my phone?
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
You should sbf your droid 2 with the 2.3.2 sbf. Search in droid 2 android development section. There are two ways to flash it. One in windows the other in linux. I made a tool so people can use any computer to flash in linux. Search in the android development section for the droid 2 and it's there if you need it. I recommend reading and reading and reading then flash it. You'll be wiser and you'll know each step before you do it. It's not difficult and if you are going to flash ROMs you need to need to know how to sbf.

If your phone boots it's not bricked. And read every post here before trying to return it to verizon. If you have the desire to flash ROMs to your phone you can to the research to fix any mishaps. If after you read every post and you still have no idea or the methods applied haven't worked then you have my permission to take it back to verizon with the excuse that the update messed up your phone. Thanks and happy fixing!
[Droid 2 General] hamabucon:
I have just bought another Droid 2 Global , is that work if I have a nandroid backup from the new one and use for the bricked one ?
[Droid 2 General] leobg:
The phone is Droid 2 Global. There is no sbf available for D2G yet. More and more users are getting confused. Please vote in the thread for dedicated section for D2G @XDA!
[Droid 2 General] leobg:
You could try, but you need to get into cw recovery on the broken one first...
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
I was not commenting to hamabucon I was talking to dotmike who it seems has an Orginal Droid 2 (not global) and the advice is NOT for the Droid 2 Global. I'm sorry if it's confusing he posted in a thread about the D2 G and I was trying to help him where he posted his problem. I have not suggested that there is an Sbf for the D2 G. Sorry for the confusion but if we all read what each post relates to will help.
[Droid 2 General] hamabucon:
:(, Still wait for my little hopeness
[Droid 2 General] dotmike:
Yes, apologies for taking over a thread with my question, however to newk8600, I didn't know that holding the up key on the keyboard booted into the bootloader! I managed to sbf from there since RSDLite read the phone then.

Apologies for any confusion, and thank you again for the help.

Hi,

I'm looking at a key that contains an encrypted value. The key is read/written by a software/driver for a wireless card. I am not sure what is responsible for the encryption (winmobile or the driver).

Is there a way I can find out if it's windows, without needing visual studio to write an app to test it...?

The value is written in the following key if that helps...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symbol Technologies, Inc.\Profiles\someUserProfile]

Couldn't find answer to my issue but if i overlooked please forward the link

anyway, my screen does not time out

any more

. it was set for 30 seconds, at one point i enabled the stay awake feature that keeps it awake while charging. but I have since disabled that feature. in any case, it should be irrelevant because my phone won't timeout even when not charging. disappointing because it used to work no problem . any suggestions?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kambiz.aghaiepour:
I too have noticed my screen is not timing out and going to lock state. I have timeout set to 2 minutes. The timeout time is now only dimming the display, but it never seems to go to lockscreen state. Has anyone else seen this and know how to correct it?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kambiz.aghaiepour:
Sorry for the double post ... I rebooted and now screen timeout is working again. I'll keep an eye on it to see if the problem returns after a certain amount of bootup time.

Hi All,

I'm trying to rebuild the stock mail.apk application, with a couple of (non security-busting) customizations. The app seems to be dependent on some Calendar providers.

My general question is should I be able to rebuild mail.apk without building the entire OS?

Thanks for any guidance.

My phone is rooted, i've cleaned out most of the bloatware and i'm starting to customize it to my own, but i'm trying to find out where to put my music/ringtones/pictures/wallpapers and i'm kind of lost.

When I mount and open it to view files, these are the folders in my internal storage

Android

ClockworkMod

data

DCIM

FeebeRings

TitaniumBackup

update.zip

Can someone please tell me exactly where to put all of my things? It would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eortizr:
For your Music,, you can put them in any folder,, the OS does a screen on the SD Card on every boot and it will detect your music. So basically just put them in a folder named Music.

The Ringtones go in \system\media\audio\Ringtones

Pictures Goes in DCIM, wallpapers can be put in the same directory cuz when the OS scans the SD Card it will detect your wallpapers as pictures.

The built in wallpapers are in an .APK so you can not have your wallpapers added to the built in...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
^ I think you could probably take the TWwallpaper .apk and extract it to find the pics and delete/add them and then rezip it?

system/app/twwallpaperchooser/res/drawable-hdpi

this is where the backgrounds are. I wonder if you could just add/delete them in this folder using root explorer?

I have never done it.. but it seems like it could be done.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelsix:
So, I have the same question (having just successfully flashed), but am confused about the answer. In the poster's question, as in my phone, there is no "system" directory.

I still have bionix-v-1.3.1.zip in the root directory of the internal memory. Apparently the poster had already removed the .zip file of whatever version he/she flashed from the root directory. The only place I can find a \system\media\audio\Ringtones directory is in that zip file. I see all of my currently available ringtones there, and can't find them in any other directory. (This seems odd, as I'd have expected them to be created somewhere else in phone's internal memory, as part of the flashing process).

Are you saying to just go ahead and treat bionix-v-1.3.1.zip like a directory, and drag a file into the directory in that file?

P.s. I have that "is this so obvious to everybody but me?" feeling, since xKrazYx626 seemed to have no problem understanding your answer

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Emexrulsier:
Note: all these junk was originally from Dad's not happy topic that has totally gone hijacked by these individuals and turned it into an iphone vs sgs topic

Sounds like your dad should have stuck with his iphone. He wants features that the iphone did and isn't willing to see the light. Fair enough it isn't going to operate identically but the Pros far outway the cons.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ancient_One:
I would argue that. I to have lost faith in the Galaxy S and Samsung in general. I have already bought an iPhone 4 and will soon be selling the Galaxy S.

The delays imposed by Samsung for Froyo and any future firmwares are just intolerable. Kies is a POS. GPS doesn't work really.

The device is great but the rest of it drags it down.

Sorry but it's goodbye from me and it will more then likely be goodbye from him.

Goodbye.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] t1mman:
You have to be kidding right?

iTune for windows is also some real POS... installing 4 or 5 services and 4 or 5 software just to be able to update and sync the thing is an insult in itself...

As for the "wait for a new OS", apple is known to push and delay iOS release more often, even if they make the hardware and the software... Not exactly the same issue when working on an OS optimised for different hardware...

Don't get me wrong, I think apple products are "great" for some part and the iPhone made smartphone what they are today, but don't think they' re perfect!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Animal06:
Agree. First android phone and maybe last

If it was user friendly like iPhones, without all the crap that seemingly has to happen to get GS to work half decent, then it would be a brilliant device.

I have JPA on mine, stock 2.1 is unusable, and phone still lags and wifi is worse

Struggles to pick up wifi signal from few meters away. Wifi on 2.1 was good.

Try stock 2.1 and tell me what you think of the phone, how it works out of the box? No lag fixes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ancient_One:
/offtopic

Are you for real. :confused:

Itunes - Complete package which works everytime and it's one program not many. Not sure where you got the impression it was more them one. Backup, music, movies, TV shows, perfect sync everytime, firmware upgrades everything you would want a program to do for your phone. It works

What you have just described is to poor excuse for a program called Kies.

Kies - No Backup option for the whole phone

Kies - No sync capability for notes and only half hearted ability for contacts and calendar.

Kies - Incorrect identification on music albums splitting up compilation albums into individual albums.

Kies - Maybe I will connect with the SGS today but more then likely not

Get your fact right.

/ontopic

Nothing to say.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samdroid_G_S:
Kies is optional though ;p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] t1mman:
You really don't know much about how windows works, do you?

Install iTunes and look into the task manager, check what new process are running just for iTunes... You have "Bonjour", "Apple Device Connections Manager", "iTunes Sync services", and others I don't remember. Theses are services taking up ressources for the only sake of syncing your iPhone or exchanging data.

I only use kies to get firmware update. When I close it, IT CLOSES...

If I want to share things, copy and paste thing, I put it in Mass Storage Mode and I don't need anymore services. Drag and Drop any Mp3 or Divx, or xVid. Get the picture I taken, the video I've recorded and that's it. Just like if I'd put a thumb drive in.

As for the sync, you've heard of a thing called "Google"... they have the calendar, the contacts and all that is needed there. I'm not even closely afraid to lose any data even if I get a new PC or a new phone. I got the same account with many phones and I get all the same data.

And if you use Kies for your music playback, well... I guess you're better with iTunes/iPhone... :D But still, Windows Media Player works pretty good on my large collection of music. If I want to load the tracks up in my SGS, well, I just drag and drop 'em in the device... pretty basic stuff a child would be able to do...

iPhone is most likely working like a charm on a mac, but the guys at apple can't program for PC... (almost like it was intended...)

anyway, as it was said already: If you want everything iPhone, BUY AN IPHONE!

Every Android device is made in a different state of (open) mind.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DamianGto:
T1mman you habeas used iphone i see.. Lol.

-----------------

If you want zero controll and want a other Company(apple) to tell you how to use your stuff i understand why some people love the iphone.

To come to android (sgs)was like get rid of a straight jacket.

This is how a smartphone should work.

how anybody can think itunes is good is a big question for me.

Kies is not good either, but you only need to use it if you want to upgrade to an original firmware.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Animal06:
I hope this is not how a smart phone should work

Itunes works. Longest ever wait for for important update from apple around 4 weeks, not 12

Iphone doesn't lag like SGS.

I agree about constricted apple platform otherwise I would have just got a IP4. I ain't no apple fan boy!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Logseman:
iTunes REQUIRES Quicktime to get installed separately. So much for "one program".

As T1mman says, there is more than one process running when you install iTunes.

And Kies is a POS which wants to be like iTunes. I wouldn't say much about it if not for the fact that, like iTunes, it has no Linux version, thus making it quite hard to use it in a free OS environment as I'm using right now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Animal06:
Who cares what is running in the back ground on a modern pc?

Most can now handle a zillon ops with little affect.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] t1mman:
Yeah, sure! What's the point anyway to built good, powerfull and light apps? Screw stability and lightness... they can handle it...

Good thing most of software engerneer are not thinking like this (or like apple)...

That's probably why apple can't build an os that support hardware 5 years old (G5) where Windows support numerous hardware (Win 7 can run easy on a P4)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ancient_One:
We appear to be digressing from the main topic. My advice would be for dad to sell the sgs and get an iPhone 4. I did.

New firmware came out yesterday. Flawless backup, install and reinstall took place through iTunes.

Beat that sgs and kies.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] wfhowell:
get an iphone 4 and jailbreak...works great...runs like a dream...everything works..

outlook sync...calendar...its all there..no more jacking around with Kies..that is a piece of s...t....headaches over...iphone4 jailbreak..done..

bye bye
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
I totally agree with t1mman, iTunes it's the worse piece of Spamware ever created

it install too many unnecessary extra apps into your computer and drags it down

you will feel it if you were on a PIII and older machines

Killing the extra Spam installed by Apple makes it run better, but then iTunes complains it can not continue without them.

One of the main reason why I choose Android over Apple

The who point of using Android is to have everything synced to Gmail/Google account, not to sync with a desktop.

Iphone has no good option to sync to a cloud, as most everything is synced to iTunes
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Animal06:
OP, thanks for your opinion

I never meant for my comments to be anything other than SGS does not work

out of the box as advertised by Samsung and Telecos on 2.1 or 2.2

My main issues are lag and FC's

It is my first android and I want to know is it Samsungs software, is the phones hardware glitchy or is it android

Out of the box SGS was hopeless after a few apps installed.

If not for 2.2 reg hack SGS would be in the bin.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SargeRX8:
Until I read about lag and lag fixes on this forum, my SGS was brilliant. I had it for about 2 months and it gave me 0 issues. I had issues with swype but swype is an aftermarket addon. Lagfixes only made it that much better.

Ive got iPhone 4 and the SGS and a HD2. The iPhone 4 is with my lady coz she likes the simple device, the HD2 is with my brother coz he loves the big screen. The galaxy s is with me coz its what I wanted from my HD2.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Peacemanibk:
Just to put in my 2 cents:

I dont have/had an iphone, but a frind of mine, and one can blame Apple for everything - closed system, no freedom, antennagate, ... whatever, BUT the updating mechanism is really good. Easy, no loss of data, no wait for carrier modifications, ...

Android in general has there a big task to improve, especially in view of security holes which should be patched fast (Not the ones which allow us rooting and everything else of course ;) ).

EDIT: Just as an example: http://thomascannon.net/blog/2010/11/android-data-stealing-vulnerability/. Now lets bet when this security issue will be fixed for us.

The Galaxy S is - from my point of view - still a very good phone with an awsome display, but it is nothing with is working superp out of the box. Ok, wrong advertisment from Samsung, but at least i knew it before reading such forums like here.

To the end, Apple is also cooking with water, my friend told me that with his old 3GS the gps was awful, needed a few minutes to relock after a tunnel - impossible to use it for navigation - compared to this my SGS is back relocked after 30s or so :D.
