If you know why the directory is I can post the files. Man, we really need some devs...

Also, you can might not need to flash it, but you would probably need to use ABD then.
[Continuum Android Development] ThePravus:
Was informed that we could use dump_image to pull it and then flash_image to reflash. Trying to get ADB working at the moment. Typing on the phone is terrible.
[Continuum Android Development] dfgged:
The typing isn't that bad if you use swype or SwiftKey. Is there anything I can do to help?

[Continuum Android Development] ThePravus:
OK this is the best I can do I think.

I dumped the recovery block with the awesome help from Da_G]NARF[ on the XDA IRC chan.

AFAIK this should fix it.

Extract boot.rar

Copy boot.bin to your sdcard

Unmount the SDcard if you copied from your computer.

Open a terminal either with ADB shell or im assuming a term emulator would work.

SU for root privs. then use this command:

dd if /dev/block/bml1 of=/sdcard/boot.bak bs=4096

This will backup your current one.

dd if=/sdcard/boot.bin of=/dev/block/bml1 bs=4096

This will rewrite with the new one.

Reboot.
[Continuum Android Development] Weudel:
If you can pull the stock recovery and post it, that would be great...

Otherwise, could one of you try booting into the stock recovery and see what it does... I tried to load the Fascinate Clockwork using ROM Manager and I'm not sure if it actually did anything or not... I don't think Clockwork would check with Verizon for updates.... All I have experience with is Amon Ra on my Eris..... Would be great if it just failed to change it.....
[Continuum Android Development] Weudel:
Awesome, thanks...

Looks like it worked... I guess I might not know for sure until the 2.2 OTA comes out.... Fingers crossed...
[Continuum Android Development] anotwell:
I've been working on porting clockwork. After running

build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh device_manufacturer_name device_name /your/path/to/the/boot.img

with the path substitution, I get

unpackbootimg not found. Is your android build environment set up and have the host tools been built?

Does anyone have any suggestions?
[Continuum Android Development] trailblazer101:
I am new to these forums :) Well, i have been looking around here for a while for my Continuum phone, i just haven't said anything :P

I may be completely wrong... But do these steps (The ones in the beginning) install Clockwork? Or is that for something completely different?

and this is probably the wrong place to ask... But in order to install the Voodoo lagfix, you need Clockwork, right?

Thank you for your help everyone :)
[Continuum Android Development] dfgged:
Well this the right place to ask, and the steps you see are steps to flash the stock recovery back. Also, yes, we do need clockwork for voodoo.

[Continuum Android Development] Weudel:
There currently is not a Clockwork Recovery for the Continuum, but it is in the works...
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
Has anyone other than Weudel tried using this supposed stock recovery?
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
I'm using a Terminal Emulator on my phone trying to run the command to backup my current boot image. I'm typing "su" first for root privileges then typing "dd if /dev/block/bml1 of=/sdcard/boot.bak bs=4096" but I'm getting an error saying uknown operand if. Help?

Nevermind, I've discovered the problem. The code to backup your current boot image is "dd if=/dev/block/bml1 of=/sdcard/boot.bak bs=4096". There was an equal sign missing in the post above.
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
So I've completed the steps listed above and was under the impression this would restore my phone to stock. However, I still don't have the Verizon bloatware I deleted. Did I not understand what this process was meant to accomplish?
[Continuum Android Development] dfgged:
That process was simply to back up your current recovery. In order to return alll the bloatware, you have to do a factory reset.
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
So now if I complete the wipe data/factory reset option in the recovery screen it will restore everything to stock including apps? I've done this before, prior to completing the steps listed above, and all it did was wipe my info like contacts etc. It did not restore the blocked apps I deleted with root access.
[Continuum Android Development] jamezelle:
so...who is working on this? I don't have the phone but can probably help in some way....
[Continuum Android Development] dfgged:
well... ummm... I'm not actually sure there is a way for you to restore the bloatware... I mean, I might be able to upload the apk's, but I don't really know what else to tell you.
[Continuum Android Development] samuelhadams:
I understand the process now. I'm just going to wait till we have a stock rom available to restore bloatware. No need to upload apk's. I just want to make sure I have no problems upgrading to Froyo when it's available.

Bubby323 seems to be our only dev atm.
[Continuum Android Development] bubby323:
Ill be working on clockwork today, the button layouts will probally be messed up but it will be better than nothing, do you guys have an irc channel?
[Continuum Android Development] Weudel:
My guess would be no..... Help us bubby-wan kenobi... You're our only hope :D
[Continuum Android Development] bubby323:
Then freenode it is..ill go makeone here in a bit and ill see about getting some testers to get the ball rolling. (;
[Continuum Android Development] dfgged:
Well, if it helps, I'll be one of your first volunteers. I will stress this, I will only help if someone is willing to help me get back to the stock recovery if and when I screw things up. I'm 13 and would be really pissed to have a crapped out phone.

Sent from my space time Continuum using the XDA App.
[Continuum Android Development] bubby323:
We'll make a backup of recovery.bin so that you can restore the stock recovery if you wish. Galaxy S phones a virturally unbrickable. There is a piece of software called Odin that uses the stock tar we can make to restore your phone to stock condition if need be. We can make a stock tar or if you already have one use that. My first priority is getting clockwork working though. Installing Ubuntu again, my drive failed for some reason, then I'll get an IRC channel up on freenode and we can jump into development.
[Continuum Android Development] Weudel:
Cool.... Have fun setting up Eclipse...

I am here to help any way that I can. I have the source code released from Samsung. Is there any other Galaxy S kitchen that will work? What is the source code good for?
[Continuum Android Development] mikeumd:
i removed bloatware how do i recover so i can do updates?
[Continuum Android Development] trailblazer101:
There is no hope for you.. You are eternally damned because you did not create a backup...

Nahhh, just kidding :P lol.. Try to download as much of the apps you can online from the Verizon apps section from the Market... And the other ones are uploaded, i just don't remember the link... I'll ask Dfgged what the link was once school is done :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
Just a heads up to everyone... if you haven't tried the app Quick Pic on your NC, you owe it to yourself to do so. It is by far the fastest and most responsive gallery app I've ever used on Android. Period.

It also makes a fantastic comic viewer if you've unzipped all of the comic images into their own folders.

For your convenience, I've attached the apk. ;)

It's called QuickPic (Picture Folder) in the Market.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] hamachiaddict:
thanks! have to give it a try ... stupid question, is there an easy way to uninstall any of the apps and it will do a clean uninstall.

first time playing with android and installing apps left and right but I'm not sure if that's the best thing to do :)

i cannot find recent screenshots in my pic gallery using this app. I can only see then when using the original gallery app. Any Help?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] strohmann:
after the recent update, quickpic now zooms on double-tap instead of single-tap. I don't like double-tapping/pinch2zoom all the time, do you know how to change it back to single-taps ?

I tried to find the homepage/forum of the developer to ask him that, but failed... -only found some chinese page

there is no settings/preferences button for this app, right?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
QuickPic works good for local pictures, but does nothing with remote pictures. JustPictures works great for remote pictures (Flickr, Picasa), but always does a scan that takes quite a while for local pictures.

I use both, depends on what I'm doing. ;)

I wish QuickPic had an option to not disable the status bar.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] eric2k:
this app vs google's stock 2.1 gallery any comments?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] KryptoNyte39:
I'm not sure exactly what the stock google 2.1 gallery is, but if it's the 3Dgallery, or the original Nook Color gallery, then the Quickpic app isn't quite as fancy, but it also hasn't choked on large quantities of very large photo files, which both of the prior mentioned apps couldn't handle. I also had problems with JustPictures choking on multiple folders with over 100 (5+mb) photos in each.

I would list Quickpic as more utilitarian. It does the job, and does it fairly well.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Nooter:
What about Floating Image?

It doesn't help when you want to find a particular image, but browsing a gallery is heavenly in that app.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] cal3thousand:
Great suggestion

Thanks for suggesting this... I really like the Froyo 3D Gallery, but its not as smooth and some things are just annoying, especially when loading new pictures.

QuickPic is damn good for my needs.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] waxlabo:
i wish there was a good flickr app, with the same layout as quickpic. quickpic is awesome. :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] waxlabo:

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] csurfer:
Great app, was using just pictures until now which was far better than the standard gallery app. :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] unclebobbyc:
Just tried it on my Noot'd Nook, and it works really well. One great thing is that it uses the Nook's gallery video player vs the core Android one, so it retains the "Back" button. I've been avoiding Softkeys as long as possible. Other apps like Fox News and Team Coco use the core Android one, and I get stuck without a way out.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] hitekredneck:
+1 for Quick Pic! Had not heard of this one before.

Excellent gallery app, thanks a bunch for the heads up.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] derekr:
I use Photo Slides. I find the transitions between photos to be smoother and better looking.

I like how it seperates videos from pictures unlike the standard nook gallery. Especially the fact that I can include/exclude folders.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] hitekredneck:
Thanks but no thanks. Just gave it a go and quickly decided that this wasn't for me. Not enough configuration options. Can't even exclude folders like you can in quick pic.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Divine_Madcat:
I am in love with Quick pic, if for nothing else than the background setter. With the stock gallery, i am never happy with the results (it seems to zoom in way too much for no reason); QP gives the background as i am expecting it, no wierd pixelation or zooming.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] KDOG2020:
VERY nice, thanks!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bugeyed1:
I tried QuickPic & can only see the SD card. Can it or any other configurable viewer include the main mem folders? Stock does, but shows book covers & all. The other "Gallery" I have shows only SD & defaults to full screen thus loosing notification bar buttons.

Running auto-nootered stock.

Thanks,

If QuickPic had Picasa integration I would be in love. I usually don't have many photos stored locally. I upload everything to Picasa to organize them and share with family and friends.

Just Pictures is very fast and has online pic access for picasa, flickr, facebook and others. Works great.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turtwig:
I've recently updated to Froyo on my I9000.

T-Mobile finally managed to get the firmware out :eek:

I installed it and it ruined my Messaging app, so I factory resetted.

Now, when I open the Messaging app, it works almost perfectly except that the colours are behaving in a bizarre way.

When I receive a new text message and I am in the messaging app (with the screen unlocked when it happens) it will be yellow as it should be.

If I exit the Messaging app and go back in, or click on a message and then return to the conversation screen, all received messages turn a strange green colour and the corners 'break'.

Here's a screenshot to demonstrate the effect: finalboss.org/img/weird-20101209-141115.png (Can't post URLs as a new user :()

The green side looks almost as if the contrast has been jacked way up but, when I started editing the screenshots together, I noticed that the image on the right has dithered gradients and the image on the left does not - almost as if some sort of image compression is being applied to the graphics.

The dithering is definitely happening in the messaging app and not being applied when I take/edit the screenshots.

If the images are having some sort of compression applied to them while they are being used in the Messaging app it could account for the yellow turning green (colour palettes and such).

I really have no idea how or why this is happening so I thought I'd post here.

If anyone else has heard of or experienced this I would appreciate the help :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] neil85ae86:
I installed the official jk4 froyo this morning and neither winamp or xiialive can connect to any stations, I use this feature a lot and I'm very bummed right now.

Both apps can browse the station listings but cannot connect to the stream.

I've tried rebooting and it didn't help.

I have full signal, it's not like it times out slowly just instantly get an unable to connect message.

Could bell be blocking this?

Anyone else?

Neil
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mssmison:
I gave this a try just to check for you, and it doesn't work on my jk4 either.

I've checked with logcat, and there doesn't seem to be a dicernable error, it just keeps sending playercode 14 (which I have no idea what it means).

I'd suggest contacting the winamp dev team, they may need to update the app.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] neil85ae86:
It's not just winamp

"failed to play the requested stream" is the actual message, from searching it looks like it has something to do with the type of stream aac vs mp3 and it's not device or app specific.

hopefully a fix comes along soon.

Neil
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dm-digital:
I just tested it and I can stream fine over both wifi and 3G with JK4
[Galaxy S I9000 General] robbiev80:
I had this issue with TuneIn Radio when I first got jk3. I just reinstalled the app

and everything worked fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] neil85ae86:
it's winamp

after a reboot if I start winamp first and then try other streaming apps non work, if I do a reboot and just use other streaming apps it works fine.

so I guess avoid winamp for now.

A friend of mine has recently bought an Orange San Fransisco and has set me the task of unlocking it so that it will accept any simcard.

Do you think that I'll have a problem trying to unlock an osf without having an orange simcard? Or maybe with a very old orange simcard (2004). I guess all I need is to be able to make emergency calls so that I can find the IMEI number if not visible somewhere else on the phone.

If I ever see Gingerbread on my Vibrant it'll be thanks to the devs here, not Samsung. At least that's how I feel.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexluthor:
With Samsung hedging, I think that's a clear sign they'll never official release it.

I mean they confirmed Froyo and they are 3-4 months behind the competition in delivering it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qreffie:
On one hand I think they will release it considering Google chose the guts of the Galaxy S series of phones for their Nexus S which means it should be relatively easy for them to get it running on the phones (granted they'll probably try to shove TWiz on it) it should actually showcase the true power of the Hummingbird's GPU. On the other hand what have they done for me lately?

I'm sort of hedging my bets as well by trying to coax my roommate into getting a Nexus S so I can trade with him. I have absolute faith in the devs here that anything that comes out on the Nexus S will be ported to our phones, but I'd be nice to own something that felt like it was officially supported by the people you bought it from.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vegastouch:
Yep, thats what i figure. If we see Gingerbread, it will be because of the Devs in here and then i will never buy a Samsung phone again. They just dont care about supporting their phones like they say they will and its too bad. They are good phones and they will lose many sales because of it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser__sose:
Hi everyone,

This morning I upgraded to froyo via Kies on my Bell i900m. It was running stock JH2 without any rooting or lagfix etc.

The upgrade process went smoothly however after booting into froyo i began to get force closures and then the phone froze (within ten mins of running froyo).

Then I did a battery pull to reboot and now i'm stuck in a boot loop.

The phone only goes to the "Galaxy S GT-i9000m" screen then reboots constantly. I can't get into recovery mode (phone reboots too quickly) but I can get into download mode.

Is my internal sd fried? any advice how i can try to do a factory reset ? Can i even do this if i can't get into recovery?

any help is greatly appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackDino:
Internal SD issues,

you can try one thing,

download Odin 1.7 and i9000UGJH2 then flash ONLY the PDA.

Once booted open the recovery and if you have errors mounting you have the internal sd problem..

Since it was an official froyo upgrade though I would just take it in.

Edit:

Btw, you didnt have a lagfix installed right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser__sose:
No I didn't have lagfix, or root - it's purely stock. The only modification done was that I unlocked it (but i'm running it on Bell)

I used for a few hours its fine and now I finally got time to sit down and do some settings. Then suddenly applications started to crash and in the notification bar I read something like internal sd couldn't be loaded or something.

Edit: i can get into recovery mode and download mode! any suggestions?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser__sose:
I took mine back to bell this evening. I have the bill but they didn't ask to see it they just took the phone and sent it in for repairs.

If you can get into recovery mode I would see if the internal SD is working. If it is you can flash with Odin and see if that fixes things. If the internal is fried then you have to send it in but no worries like i said they didn't ask me for the bill (but I was using a bell sim).
