Tried this on my buddies phone and it wasn't that easy.

It would boot up again, but only with the help of an External SD Card. Also, once you take it out, everything would FC and phone shuts down.

Also, there was a notice in notification bar saying "Unable to mount to External SD. Please remove, Mount point incorrect"

Wasn't able to revive it so buddy got rid of it.

Sad to say, but you're not the only one who has had these problems. Which is why I got rid of my i9000. Its an amazing phone and loved it, but once problems happened out of nowhere, I lost faith in it. Don't want to end up with a lemon. Phones are meant for emergencies afterall. When you start questioning if the screen will turn on, really makes one worry.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Torob:
I have the internal SD problem too and i tried that..

I get stuck at ODIN where it says "File Analysis.."

It just stays there..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shaahinjjj:
I did try flashing the stock 2.1 firmware using odin but no luck. I'm with Bell too and I'm sure I used the right .tar files, and I did repartition the memory with the right pit file, I'm not that much of a noob :). Anyway, after searching every where to find a solution, I was pretty sure there was no easy way of reviving the phone. So I just went to Bell and they shipped it to Samsung to repair it. The problem is that when you don't disable the lagfix, your internal memory card remains partitioned under different formats and the system won't be able to read stuff off it ... or something like that.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sjouni:
i think the pit file couldn't repartition the sdcard we need to find another way to repartition the sdcard, but how we can do this? any suggestions?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shaahinjjj:
Well, in my case the pit file did repartition my sdcard, as odin successfully "past". Did you try other pit files to see if it works?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rajesh26e4u:
Yup same thing happened to mine. Its just stuck with buttons lit up but nothing on the screen. Went into recovery and wiped the hell outta everything there, but still nothin.

Im just gonna try to return it and get a diff phone all together. Its been only 3 months since I got the damn thing. So they better take it back.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sjouni:
we need a 512 pit other not work, but on my sdcard as your's if the pit repartition the sdcard then no problem, what the lagfix do to sdcard? we need to back it to default state, how?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shaahinjjj:
If I knew how, i wouldn't have taken my phone to Bell to fix it for me. I don't mean to disappoint you but I don't think there's any easy way of fixing the phone. Our phones are basically bricked! I suggest you do the same I did.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick_powell:
Hi,

My HD2 touch screen has become unresponsive and I have used Pim backup previously on WM devices however because I cant get into the device to back it up using that is there any PC based free software that can complete the same tasks?

Thanks,

Nick
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dio62000:
Not free, but SOTI Pocket Controller is a must have for these kind of problems. But for first use / install you still must be able to touch the screen, so if you can manage to the touch screen work once more (for intance by pressing the display and hardware buttons) this would be a good solution.

With Pocket Controller you'll be able to control your HD2 from your PC.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sniff15:
download and run a program called "MyMobiler" it doesn't require the phone to do anything but be connected and you don't to touch the screen.

i used this when my screen stopped working and needed to be sent back to htc.

Tuxility in the market:D http://www.appbrain.com/app/tuxility/com.grimmvarg.android.tuxility

News: I have discovered that editing the settings.db is not very usefull and might make your system unstable. I have therefor decided to choose a less generic way of letting users access edit system settings, like wifi sleep time etc.. Should be done in a day or two :)

The userbase has grown a lot these last days, which means a lot more feedback. No big bugs as of yet, but please post any issues you find, so I can fix them :) And off course feature requests!

Tuxility

Hey guys!

Im creating an app for the Samsung galaxy s, Ive only been working on it for a few days, but a few features have found there way into it:

- Flashing a kernel without pc, while phone is on. ( ref: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765724)

- Back up your current kernel

- Phone codes (view battery stats and various tests of hardware)

- Backing up and restoring /efs

- Reboot to Recovery, Download and standard mode

- Cleaning battery stats

Features to come:

- Toggle Mediascanner on/off

- Editing system settings

- Full System information

- Change system Font

- Sensor dump (for fun)

- Improved GUI, with colors and an icon :D

- Place backups on external_sd if it exists (thanks _renaud_)

- Add tools for calibration of screen/battery etc..

Requirements:

- Root

- A Samsung Galaxy S (all variants) running Android 2.1 and up.

Why am I releasing this?

Well for one to share the kernel-flashing feature (thanks to supercurio for this). Also to get feedback on what works and not. But more importantly to get feedback on what to add or change about feature and code (which is located here, yes I know my github tree is suboptimal :P). I'm used to Java but pretty new to android. So any feedback on the code is appreciated :)

NOTES ABOUT THE KERNEL FLASHING

I hacked together a filechooser to pick the zImage you want to flash. And you can flash only zImages or Tars including zImage.

The filechooser sets /sdcard/download/ as starting DIR so i suggest you unpack your zImage there. :) Bakups are stored in /sdcard/.tuxility/backup

And the notice of no responsibility

I take no responsibility if my app breaks your phone, (not that it should, but now i said it) and you try this software at your own risk. On a related note, the code and the app is released under GPLv3. I will however, do all i can to help :)

Logging is on, so have a look in logcat if something is not working and let me know :)

I hope someone will find this usefull, and find the time to give me som feedback :)

Known issues:

The settings file seems to be located elsewhere on the galaxy tab. So if anyone with a tab wants to help me out finding this, that would be great :)

If flashing kernel fails, and log show "not enough space on device" remove any folder in /cache named "2010-*" that contains a zImage. This is fixed irelease 1.2, I thought that /cache was cleaned at boot, but this was not the case.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
The way that all this work

The backup features are pretty straight forward, using a system shell I give a cp/cat/tar command wherever it is suitable. For instance /efs needs to be tared to keep uid and permissions.

For reboot i issue the "reboot <mode>" as root

The kernel install uses the procedure from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765724 and copies a binary file to /apps and uses it to install the new kernel image.

All backups are stored in /sdcard/.tuxility/backup

A SMALL WARNING

Just like anyone will tell you, remove all lagfixes when flashing a new kernel if you are not _sure_ that the new kernel you are flashing support your old lagfix, ktnx :D

CHANGELOG

V1.2

- Huge code cleanup

- Now using flash_image to flash kernel, thanks to koush!

- no more screen distortion after flash

- No forced reboot after flash

- Better execution controll

- Added phone codes

- Removed edit settings.db (this is to risky, no replacement on the sketch board)

- Starting on feature to fetch latest kernel

V1.1

- Install kernel from tar archive

- Finally have an icon

- A bit more restructuring of code

Android Market will not allow me to use sub 1 versions.. :/

V0.21:

- Restructured the menu, for later additions

- Added remove batterystats

- Backup Kernel now sets date in filename

- Improved filechooser, will not install files with a file extension

- Big cleanup of code
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] supercurio:
GrimmVarg I will follow your work very closely ! :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] g00ndu:
Wow, this is good. CWM doesn't backup the kernel, and with this app, one can easily do it. Would be absolutely wonderful if it can be included in the CWM recovery menu.

Thanks and will try it soon. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] miro666:
Is it somewhat like this?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=775154

Regards
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Yes and no, Its the same concept but different features, except the Secret codes list which I havent implement and the wiping of batterystats. I used SGStools my self before I started on Tuxility, its a very usefull app.

I am making tuxility mostly to get all the features that i need in one app, as I feel that most of these utility apps both overlap on features and miss a few essential features, like flashing a new kernel for instance. So my goal is for Tuxility to be a feature full alternative that cover all common needs, and in addition has specialized features for a give rom/kernel.

Thus feature requests are most welcome :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] hacksome:
Can you publish this to Android Market?. Further updates are easier that way. Thanks for making this.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Yeah. As soon as I get an icon and rewrite the code for executing shell commands i'll push to market :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] My20:
please flash,

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] c0llal0:
Yeah Mr....

great idea ... bring sgstools, spareparts and some features missing in cwm together ... absolutely welcome!!!

gwaan doin this great job!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Yeah, If its possible it would be nice. Ill look into it later. Right now Ive been getting help by mikebeecham to make an icon for the app as i plan to release it to market tonight. But I want to implement the possibility to maipulate the settings.db first. So.. yeah. Hoping to get it done while my girlfriend is at the theater :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] scheichuwe:

Really nice:)

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] socksfelloff:
Just wanted to throw this out there.

This app works on the Galaxy tab as well. trying to view settings causes a FC however backing up the kernal worked
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zoubidou:
looks great.

backup also csc and eventually modem would be very nice.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Glad to hear it! Could you tell me if if backing up settings.db work? Might be that this file is located elsewhere on the tab. And if so I need to do some digging to find as I dont own a tab my self :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Yeah, after i get settings maipulation to work and get a little bit better look an the app, ill be looking to try and both backup and install full firmware :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] zoubidou:
i just tried a kernel update.

i used speedmod version 11 cwm.

i stated wrong file format. sorry for that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
The file you choose for kernel installation has to be a zImage or a tar file containing a zImage. Was this the case?

Update: I just looked at the webpage for speedmod. And the download you want when using Tuxility is the one for Odin, not cwm. Hope that helps :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] hoezay:

I couldnt find it on the market, do you have it here.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] corgar:
any news? i just want to switch from sgs tool to tuxility :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bodziophonix:
I'm interesting too, when you planning release app?

Maybe you need some beta testers??
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Yeah, I'm glad to see people are still interested. For the last months i have had to work on real work (read: paid work :P) so I haven't had much time for Tuxility. But now that I'm finishing two other apps I wanted to pick it up again, add a few more features and support as many phones as possible. So if anyone have any nice features you would like to see or phones that support "live-flashing" of kernel / modem etc, please let me know. If google starts playing nice i'll have it back up on market in a week or so :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bodziophonix:
Could you implement some functions from SGStools or something similar:

- advance system apps cleaner

- boot/shutdown sound modify

- gps fix

- etc.,

I know that there is a lot similar apps in android market, but it would be great if we have everything in one app.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] brujoand:
Yeah, this my goal. One app that does everything. :)

i also bought a p503 here in Turkey, it is just annoying not to be able to log on ANDROID MARKET. I read the suggested thread regarding flashing the ROM. Hovewer, it is a bit too risky here in Turkey cause it breaks the warry terms.

thans by now
[Optimus One, P500, V General] masteryx:
I learned the hard way that access to the Market or to specific apps from the Market are not phone related, but location related.

Yeah, try imagining my surprise when every single internet site said I can download and install Google StreetView from the Market, yet the damn application was nowhere to be found. So there I was, searching for the application using my computer when I found the Google Market site accessible from PC. It asked me to authenticate using my Google account - so they knew who I am, where I live, what type of phone I have and what mobile operator I use. Therefore, when I found the StreetView app, the download button was inactive because "this application is not available for your provider" or something like that. Whaaaat? Yet, when I finally found the .apk somewhere and installed it from sdcard, the app worked perfectly.

So Google restricted my access to that specific application. As it does to ALL the paid versions of the Market applications because there's no way yet to pay for them here in Romania. Therefore I have reasons to believe that your access to the Market is entirely forbidden because of where you live or because of your mobile carrier and another ROM may not make any difference.

I really, really hope I am wrong.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nikalai:
You can try root + market enabler, it is a solution. :)

How about just pushing the Market APK to your phone? If your phone has a browser, you should be able to do a quick search at 4shared: http://search.4shared.com/q/1/vending apk just choose the newest one, download and install :)

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
hey there,

i was searching the web and the forum though couldnt find any issues for connecting the desire z via usb to ubuntu (10.04 for me). however, it doesnt work with my DZ. i bought an addition micro-usb-connector (htc) and the phone does only charge and not ask, what kind of connection i want.

once, i read (and experienced) that you have to connect the usb to the back usb-ports (not the front ones) to get it working - that was with my desktop pc. now, using my laptop, the connection (mounting the sd, tethering or whatever) wont work on neither of the laptop's usb-ports...

so maybe there are two questions/issues:

does anyone have similar issues or maybe no problem with connecting the phone to

1) a laptop?

2) ubuntu 10.04?

thanks for your anwsers!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
This might be nothing to do with it, but I found that I couldn't use adb with my phone when I was using a third-party USB cable, even though it sync'd (HTC Sync) fine. This was using XP. When I went back to the original HTC cable, adb worked fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mordecai83:
Hi there,

I have a laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) and everything works fine here. If i connect my DZ with my laptop a menu appears on the DZ asking if i want to charge only, use as disk drive, HTC sync, USB tethering and internet passthrough. I havent tried HTC sync but the rest works fine. I can even synchronize my music with Rythmbox or Banshee. So what i'm saying is that it should work out of the box.

My DZ is stock European edition, no root or s-off yet.

I suggest you first look in the settings of your DZ and look for "Connect to PC". There you should see the settings for the default connection and a "ask me" option. (My default is charge only and "ask me" is turned on). If this doesn't work maybe you can test your device on another computer to see if the menu does appear when you connect your phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
Thanks for your replies.

I was trying to get adb working but ended up in getting an no-permission-error. Couldn't figure out the problem...

My DZ is also European,standard stock Rom,nothing done (yet). I checked the settings you mentioned and it says "ask me".

Next thing that is really weird: I can enable the tethering option (but cannot use it), yet the connection bypass (or what it is called in English) is greyed out. Tomorrow, I'm going to try the usb cable from the box...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
ok, i checked with the original usb cable, still i wont get a connection. as my laptop sits on a docking station, i also tried the back-ports (at the docking station) and un-docked it - no success. none of the three ports will grant me access to the phone.

furthermore, i booted into windows xp and it will show a removable device, but i cannot access it (says something like "enter a device").

it seems to me, that it has something to do with my laptop (lenovo t61) and its usb ports... i have no idea, what to do, so i'm happy about any advice or experience...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Try the guide on adb at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865685 , it tells you where to get the Windows drivers.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abprie:
thanks for the hint, i tried to adb on linux (without success), but going for the windows try...

i'm wondering about, why the phone does not simply give access to the sd-card, like any other removable device. why do i need to install htc sync (including the drivers)? when plugging any removable dev for the first time, it normally just installs the drivers and you'll get access... where is the problem here?
