[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlassButrFly:
Ooook, I see what you're saying... if I just flash Cognition, that Rom is already rooted, right? So I don't need to root first in that case.

So here are my new steps, borrowed and edited from the Axura thread:

1. Use Odin One click to Flash Stock and Master Clear

Question: I already used Odin One Click once, and flashed stock JF6. I did not do a Master Clear, I just clicked Start. Then I updated to JH7 with Kies. I have not made any other changes since then. Do I need to do Odin again, since I did not do a Master Clear originally, or can I proceed from where I am now?

2. Load Clock Work update zip and Cog rom file to Phone memory

3. Remove sim and external SD

4. Boot into Recovery and reinstall packages (x2)

5. Once in Clock work recovery (Green Text) Select install zip from SDcard

6. Next Select Choose zip from sdcard

7. Scroll down to Cog and select.

8. If prompted on reboot to select an option choose with backup and restore. (for auto lagfix)

9. Let it finish and dont touch it till you see the launcher screen.

If all goes well, I should end up with my phone rooted and running Cognition. Correct? If so, I think I'm seeing the light and the end of the tunnel. Hopefully there's no more problems. Thanks for your help!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
That looks good. I don't think I would worry about flash to stock, that really applies if you are already using a custom rom. Don't worry about master clear either. The only step I would add, when you boot into clockwork, choose data wipe/factory reset. If you don't it will cause buggy behavior. Just sync with google or backup personal data first. Let us know how it goes and if you need more help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlassButrFly:
Ok... I tried to download the update.zip containing clockwork recovery that you attached in your post, but it is not downloading correctly. It's downloading as attachment.php... Is there a link I can go to to download it? I tried searching the forum and all I found was people saying to get it through the Rom Manager application, but you said I had to be rooted first to get that app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Try the update.zip attached to the link from the instructions in the other thread.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlassButrFly:
That's what I did. :)

Ok, so step 8 says "If prompted on reboot to select an option choose with backup and restore. (for auto lagfix)" It told me I had successfully installed Cog, so I said "go back" and now I'm back at the main clockwork screen with the following options: reboot system now, apply sdcard: update.zip, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, install zip from sdcard, backup and restore, mounts and storage, advanced, ***Go Back***. Should I choose reboot system now or backup and restore? Wasn't sure since the wording was "if prompted on reboot", and I haven't rebooted yet, but it is an option on this screen.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
Reboot. The backup step is for a different kernel.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlassButrFly:
And oh my gosh the phone started talking to me... lol Was not expecting that. So I couldn't really understand what it said to begin with, but the last thing it said was "conversion successful" (I believe. The phone was face up, so I couldn't hear very well with the speaker covered) It showed the Galaxy S screen for a little bit, and now its a black screen... Am I supposed to be waiting for the home screen to show up at some point, or should I press the power button? What's supposed to be happening? It's been on the black screen for 3 minutes now... I haven't touched it.

Edit: So I'm an impatient person... and I pressed the power button... nothing happened... took the battery out for a bit, put it back in, and... IT TURNED ON! :D So worried I had bricked it, but it's working just fine. And I can access the superuser app with no weird error messages like I was getting before. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbylx:
That was voodoo voices applying your lagfix. It should go to a cognition boot screen. First boot usually takes 3 or 4 minutes. You might have to reboot if you have already.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GlassButrFly:
I did reboot and it worked perfectly! Thank you so much!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoeino:
hi ( xcuse me my english is not on top )

i have a big problem

all wm6.1 rom won t install in my t5353

i bought it on may 2010

i explain

after a topaz task 29 and an hspl 1.83 and installing the rom

this rom 6.1 reboot on the boot screen ( htc diamond 2 )and reboot and reboot and reboot etc etc

i try many rom 6.1 and it s all the time the same problem

if you have idea i take it

thanks a lot
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
First confirm that you infact installed HSPL 1.83 by going into bootloader. It will show "Olinex" as a suffix.

It sounds like either the ROM didn't flash correctly or you flashed with SSPL.

To recover, just find your shipped ROM and flash from PC in bootloader mode.
[Nook Color General] kyleds:
I was debating on getting my wife a nc. But I was wondering if I root it, can you play Facebook games on it? like country story, restaurant city, etc. I read somewhere that flash works bit is really slow.
[Nook Color General] jerrygon:
No... Not yet anyways. Maybe when the custom roms come out.
[Nook Color General] ZeroSX:
NC is powered by 2.1. No flash support till we get froyo on it.

It'll come sooner than you think.
[Nook Color General] cal3thousand:
There's at least one person running Froyo on it... you're right... it's just a matter of time.
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
hey,

my phone was bricked (hardware // USB) so i gave it to 3 and got it back after 1 1/2 week.(yesterday)

First i noticed that i've got a new IMEI (0123....) instead of (0359.... or something similar) that means i got a new motherboard/mainboard.

then i noticed that it run smoother then before and there are less laggs/bugs (SAME FW)

today i noticed that the speaker is VERY loud instead of the low volume before.

is that possible that those things got changed through the new mainboard/motherboard?

thx 4 answers
[XPERIA X10 General] K9999:
Ahh now my IMEI is

012379

:)
[XPERIA X10 General] francobarber:
I don't want to butt in, and I'm a newbie here, but I do want to mention that I also sent in an X10i for service and it was replaced with a new one whose IMEI starts with 01237900.

I'm in the US, my X10i was bought from expansys, and its original IMEI started with 35941903. I sent it to SE service in the US in September because it kept rebooting, and after a long wait in late October I got back a replacement with a different IMEI that, as I mentioned, starts with 01237900.
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
Maybe they give those phones as replacements then.
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
no, i can give you some pics and the full IMEI
[XPERIA X10 General] FelipeRRM:
Is it really faster and louder?
[XPERIA X10 General] ssj_jaypee:
so if this is true, maybe the incall volume really is a hardware issue and not software.

I did notice a small difference in volume after the 2.1 update though, very strange.
[XPERIA X10 General] bluecandylover:
Doesnt seem to be a hardware issue, as if you do a skype test call it's very loud (allbeit a tad crackly).
[XPERIA X10 General] will.m:
Hmmm...I wondered why my IMEI looked weird when I got my replacement. Looks like I have a dev phone too. COOL! :D
[XPERIA X10 General] omnislash:
I got my x10 yesterday after 21 days and the PCB has been changed.. IMEI starts with 01237 also the PCB looks different than the old one
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
Yes they do, we got dev phones =D
[XPERIA X10 General] yoshemoshe:
Proto types or as some of you are calling them "dev" actually begin with 00. Commercial products begin with 35 and now 01 is the new naming of all new SE's tranceivers rolling out.

No hardware changes on new imei, although you might have received a sw update
[XPERIA X10 General] will.m:
I'm guessing we'd have more control over system files and doing dev work on it, but that doesn't mean squat if you don't have the official hardware to connect to the phone and dev software on the phone.

edit: Or maybe not^^ lolz.
[XPERIA X10 General] FelipeRRM:
So it is worth for me to purposely brick my device to get a better board =D ?

PS: Still on Warranty.
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
Rlly? Oh :(

U rlly wanna do it? ^^
[XPERIA X10 General] FelipeRRM:
Well, it has a dead spot in its touchscreen and I'll be sending it to SE already, so I thought that instead of having only its screen replaced to try my luck and get a faster phone!
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
Would be nice but how do u wanna do it?

My broken usb connector was MY MISTAKE, my x10 was lying on the sofa and was charging. I didnt see it and sat on it....

But it was warranty... =D =D =D =D
[XPERIA X10 General] FelipeRRM:
Don't know. Planning on trying to unplug it during a flashing pocess. Is must damage it somehow LOL
[XPERIA X10 General] xX_o2_Xx:
my x10's imei also starts with 01237 and i got it on contract around September on o2
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
Thats only software...

In the dev thread of cracking bootloader...

Arent there files that "kills" ur phone when u use them wrong^^

So that its bricked 4 ever (not able to reflash....) but i dunno if thats warranty when u do that and give it to ur provider or a SE shop... xD
[XPERIA X10 General] FelipeRRM:
And how can I check my Phone's "number" like you are doing? It may alredy be one of the fast! Even though I find the speaker to be quite low, if it already the loud version I'm sorry for the ones who got the low version lol.
[XPERIA X10 General] tinny9:
Hello guys. My x10i has got a faulty motherboard and is

now being repaired. The motherboard is being

replaced with a new one. Now my question is

that whether the handset will behave

normally? Is the in ear speaker will be also replacaed or

not. Is it attached with the motherboard or not. Wat are the precautions shd i take care of

before taking the handset from the service

centre?

Thanks guys.
[XPERIA X10 General] t3ej4y:
same, IMEI starts with 012379.....

Got it this in november 2010. Seriously though, will a 'dev' phone as it's known as help the xda team free our x10s somehow?;)

And does anyone know for certain what are the differences btwn these and the normal phones? My device has always seemed pretty snappy to me.
[XPERIA X10 General] inflamed:
I got one with IMEI 01237900 after my phone was on repair for the broken USB connector (3rd time). Didn´t think about it if it was faster or different in some way. But I notised it´s not sim locked anymoore and it´s got the Generic phone software and World File system...Now it's rooted and has the custom 2.1 J&Z and works really great actually.
[XPERIA X10 General] PoTi_96:
Checking the sim lock when my mom comes back^^

Mine had the austrian fw (2.1) wich wasnt released those days... xD LOL
[XPERIA X10 General] FelipeRRM:
How can I check my Version?
[XPERIA X10 General] t3ej4y:
Mine was on a sticker on my box. If I'm not wrong if you apply for phone warranty on the SE site they have instructions telling you how to check

Hey guys. I got my x10 back today. Its motherboard has been replaced.

Now the problem im facing is that the hardware buttons except the power button stop working after 3-4 mins.

They work alright after every restart for 3-4 mins. Pls tell me wats going on.

Im trying to re update the software but its not working.

Thanks guys.

[General Questions and Answers] Panda_Face:
My Samsung Vibrant I bought on Wednesday was stolen last night out of my car. I'm slowing running out of options on tracking it and getting it back. I'm pissed.

In order to protect my other phone, HTC HD2 with Froyo, I want to invest in some security software and found PhoneLocator Pro. I've downloaded it off the market and really like how it works.

I'm concerned however if, by some other unlucky chance this phone gets stolen too, that if the burglar hard-resets the phone. Will this app become entirely useless in this case?

Or another question is what stolen phone locating app / anything do you guys recommend? I want to make sure I'll have any way of getting my property back.
[General Questions and Answers] promiseofcake:
If system apps persist through hard reset (apks in /system/app), and you install it as such (root) there is a possibility you should be OK. However, I think that the settings would be erased and therefore leave it useless. I will give it a test and see as I am curious as well.

---------- Post added at 12:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:52 AM ----------

So I can confirm that although the app does persist through a factory reset, it is useless, lol. I know that PLLocator Pro can backup / restore settings from the SD card but before even getting to that point the app it fails the license check and does not proceed. Oh well.

On a side note, make sure you have it installed as a system app (/system/app) in order to use the "activate gps remotely" feature.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicobar:
Hello,

I dropped my Touch Pro 2 in fresh water. No insurance of course and no more discount from T-mobile to buy a new phone.

Following video instructions on youtube I disassembled it, I believe without breaking anything.

The LCD screen was gone (water inside), and I bought a new one in eBay.

Once I received it I reassambled the phone. Evertyhting seems to work fine but... the screen is stuck in landscape!

Of course I did soft and hard reset, tried to play / disable the G-sensor and orientation sensor, nothing: I believe it has to do with some switch that recognize when the keyboard is slide open, but I have no idea what sensor is it, I can't find any mechanism that resemble a micro switch or a mini magnet related to the opening / closing of the keyboard. Instead I find a microswitch that senses when the pen is inside, but nothing about the screen.

Any suggestion, does anybody here have any hardware knowledge on this topic? I tried to use software like Gyrator 2 which put a patch on the problem, but I would rather fix the hardware first: perhaps I did not mount something correctly, where is this sensor, is it magnetic or microswitch, I can't see anything even with lenses on.

thank you all in advance

....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Zemik39:
I have exactly same problem, my TP2 is stuck in landscape mode. I bought TP2 in the US. My housing was broken so I bought a new one in europe the oem one with lcd screen and digitizer... Could this make the problem?

I am pretty sad, I dont want to buy a new phone :S
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kierandill:
The sensor must be in the screen-half of the phone underneath where the red "end call" button is. This is demonstrated if a healthy phone is slid open, and then you pass a small magnet underneath the screen in that area, screen will flip between portrait and landscape.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sabwjawdjw:
Which yes I did the same thing today and it was your post randell that helped me. All you need to do is go to walmart purchase the smallest but most powerful smallest magnet you can find. cut you a piece of it, superglue it to the bottom right corner. worked like a charm.

or if you wanted to open your case back up like i did you can superglue it on the inside lol. If you look at your old case you will find your old magnet you can use. simple easy just thought id let you know k bye ta ta.

Thats not the problem. Astro works fine. Its when I select a download from the actual 4shared website through the phone some files say its not supported on this phone.

Hey all you have to do is when the .bin appears to save and name the file just type whatever.apk. so if your downloading let's say NFL.apk in it appears as .bin just type NFL.apk and download and save. Then goto astro and install.

you should probably provide a little more information than that if you want anybody to be able to help you.

try and be as clear and understandable as possible, and list what rom/radio you had before, and whiat you tried to flash to the phone and exactly what steps led you to where you are now. what happens when you turn your phone on?

turn your phone all the way off, and then hold the volume down button, and while holding it, turn the phone back on. you should see a screen with a few colored bars on it, like red, white and green. exactly what all does this screen say on it?
