Seriously, I blame TeamWhiskey for making the battery hard to drain. I want to re-calibrate my DAMN battery but I can't because it doesn't want to die

AND WHY DID THEY MAKE THE ROM SO DAMN FAST?!

I am flashing stock JL1. I can't believe this crap.
[Vibrant General] lolcopter:
haven't even done a full cycle yet. too busy tethering, then had to update from beta 1 to beta 2, haha!

this rom is blazing fast though. download spare parts, speed up the animations, then prepare to be blown away

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 86eightsix:
I've had this problem with my last 2 G1's, I can root my phone using Androot, but it takes a bunch of tries to get the Superuser icon to show up even after wipes/reboots. Finally got it to show up after like an hour of trying. I tried flashing ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip after renaming it update and it says:

Finding update package...

opening update package...

verifying update package...

E: No signature (5 files)

E: verification failed

Installation aborted

It says the samething for everything I try except the no signature amount is different. Am I missing something or should I root my phone the long annoying way? I have rooted a good share of phones, for myself and friends no problem.

Phone info:

Firmware: 1.6

OpenVPN Working

Hey folks I got OpenVPN working. I had to do a lot of little tricks on both ends but the thing that sealed the deal on the client side was to use gscript to enable the tap0 interface that is created when OpenVPN connects to my server.

Since I have the OpenVPN server on one side and I administer it I just set the IP statically on the GTablet.

I use tap0 based on my configuration

/system/xbin/ifconfig tap0 172.16.x.x netmask 255.255.0.0 mtu 1500 up

Just wish I understood OpenVPN better......
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] JungleGym69:
which rom?

Which rom are you running? I'm running TnT. I can't find a tun/tap for it.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] cherbold:
ROMS used

Hey JungleGym I am currently using VeganTab 5.1 but I have gotten it to work on various ROMS (TNTLite and ZPad) Generally I end up using the kernel compiled by clemsyn but I am starting to question that it is needed. If I have a chance I might try to make this work with no kernel change. Usually use the two OpenVPN apps on the market, the installer and the settings app for the installer I use the xbin folder for the install and ifconfig location. Finally decked out the tablet so I am less prone to wipe and do whatever but with TNTLite with a new point revision out I am tempted to try it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] jaes45:
For some reason when i try to update some apps that came with my phone (for example Street View and Maps) and try yo get other apps (for example AdFree and Skype) but it just says Not found: The requested item could not be found
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
The market only shows apps that are compatible with your phone, based on which boxes the developers tick when uploading apps to the market.

This basically means if they don't think to explicitly say that their app is compatible with the 240x320 screen, it won't show up to us in the market.

There's a fix here, if you're rooted - this is a modified version of the Market app that pretends the screen res is the more standard 320x480, and thus lets you see more apps. Many work fine, but some might look a bit weird when stretched down to the smaller res

So this was rather funny. I have a friend who just got he Droid X yesterday and he used to have the Droid since the day it came out. He always has to outdo everyone and have the best. I got a text this morning that said: "Got the 2.3 software update B*tch". So I looked it up because I know it isn't true and sure enough find out Verizon called this update 2.3.340. And we all thought that we were getting teased with Gingerbread LMAO! Epic fail on Verizon's behalf. They have seemed to screw up on a lot of things lately. Did you guys see where they put a Droid X ad with the phone showing the IPhone version of Google Maps?: http://www.engadget.com/2010/11/30/verizon-sucks-at-photoshop-confuses-the-droid-x-for-an-iphone/

[Touch CDMA General] utcrazy:
Hi Guys,

Is it possible to change the phone number of my Froyo phone on Bell without reverting back to the stock ROM?

Thanks!
[Touch CDMA General] jadesse:
Yes you can.
[Touch CDMA General] utcrazy:
How do I change it in android? :P
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
I believe that you need to have something like CDMA Workshop, where you can connect the device to the computer and change all the programming of the device (including phone numbers).

I believe there are codes as well to access carrier programming directly in the device, but I don't know them. Although, I have seen a few threads with these codes around xda.
[Touch CDMA General] TheXev:
I know my new XevRev rom for WM6.5 would allow me to program/PRL update with Verizon, it is currently untested with other carriers though but I wager it should work since I made the roms carrier specific. It's not droid but you shouldn't have to flash back to stock without relocking.
[Touch CDMA General] egzthunder1:
Since I switched service to MetroPCS with my EVO and Metro did an outstanding job in leaving me phone-less for a full day and a half due to not programming it properly, I had to search around a bit myself and came across a few codes that may help:

##DATA#

##DIAG#

##000000# (note that if the zeros are for the MSL number. If you have CID unlocked the device, this code should probably work. Else, you will need to figure out your MSL. You can use MSL Reader, which is free in the Market). BTW, this last one is the EPST Programming, which is where you can change the phone number. Having said that, play with this at your own risk and back up every single number that you change by writing it down somewhere in case you need it again)

[Desire HD General] V3ng:
Hi all.

I have searched the forum and can't find any method to permanently remove the Vodafone pre-installed apps from my DHD.

I have used VISIONary to root and have tried Root Explorer and Titanium Backup to remove the programs, either apk's or Uninstall.

All seems find until the phone is rebooted and the apps are restored.

Does anyone know how to stop that happening? Is there some startup script that checks and unpacks?

Or else, is the fact I am temp-rooting in VISIONary something to do with it?

Many thanks in advance to anyone that can help remove this bloat!

I will put a custom rom on later, Cyanogen, but want to hold off on that for a bit.
[Desire HD General] dilema:
if you're only doing it until you put on cyanogen, i'd just freeze the apps. that stops them showing in the drawer.
[Desire HD General] pwraggcan:
You need to root AND s-off. Follow the guides in the development forum and then you can remove stock apps. The htc bootloader resets itself and reverts to stock so you need a modified bootloader. It's very easy. Just follow the guides.
[Desire HD General] V3ng:
Thanks to both.

For now I have frozen the apps with Titanium Donate as they are more annoying than damaging.

I will hold of rooting for a bit longer too, usually until I hit some issues or lack of updates.

Again, a big thanks.
[Desire HD General] Stoffl_:
:confused:

I've got a Vodafone/A1 branded Desire HD, and was using Visionary Temproot & the free version of Titanium backup to force uninstall all the branding apps I didn't like.

Worked for me.

In Visionary:

.) Run visionary.sh after root - checked

.) Set system r/w after root - checked

press "Temproot now"

Titanium backup:

Select application and keep finger on it until context menu appears \ force app delete(through recovery exploit)

Just make sure you know what you're doing, I can't see an option to reinstall these apps.
[Desire HD General] Andy:
If you reboot your phone these apps will return. Without S-OFF, any pre-installed bloatware will return.
[Desire HD General] fkofilee:
If you do what he says, the apps will remove, but this can be time consuming, :( to do it individually for each app too.

:)
[Desire HD General] V3ng:
Yes, I will do that for any apps that chomp resources.

Didn't realise about long press until later :)

Hi,

I try to make htc hd2's language Turkish. After hspl was successful, I loaded Leo_HTC_TUR_WWE_1.61 Rom. But after rom installition finished the phone seems to be just like dead. No color on screen, no blur, no sound.

I guess it is bricked according to I learn from I read. is it possible to install old rom or another or even a way to turn on phone.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Nope, you have succesfully perma-bricked your device. The only alternative is to send it into HTC for repair.
[HD2 General] samson_420:
Agreed. . . . HTC will swap mother boards under warranty if they can not see you messed with the software.
[HD2 General] ssan:
I guess perma-bricked means there is no way to operate with the software on phone. Right? The only way is changing mother board?

Also, when I plug in via USB, windows searchs for Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM driver, bu after a while "No driver found message appears"
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
yep, that's another sure fire telltail confirmation that's it's gone.
[HD2 General] ssan:
I will send it to HTC but if they understand that I change the system, I think the cost of mother board will be just like buying a new phone.

If I buy a used mother board and change it with mine, is there any possibility for phone to work?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
just send it back and play dumb, hundreds of people have had them repaired, no one has yet reported being refused, except when they own up to flashing.
[HD2 General] Diamond_dawg:
yeah you could if your good at changing stuff on Phones, but send it to HT firsts and see what they and remembers dont flash official roms from different brands

[Galaxy S I9000 General] trinitonesounds:
I got to experience 5 minutes of froyo :rolleyes: before multiple force closes and then dead. It went into a reboot loop never getting past the white i9000m logo.

Updated with Kies (latest version--no registry mod)

I was stock JH2.

No lagfix ever installed

I've never flashed any rom.

Sorry guys, Kies is not safer...

Now I have to convince Bell to honor the warranty...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dm-digital:
I don't think there are any issues with Kies or Odin for flashing. I've flashed many times, sometimes 4 times in one day and I've never had any issues. There does seem to be the usual SD issues but I also think there is a USB communications issue. There have been many reports of data corruption while writing to internal/external SD with large files. I personally had an issue pulling large files off of internal/external SD. I think if this problem occurs while flashing new firmware it could cause some corruption that could be noticeable right away or after a bit of use. The partitioning on this device seems to be more sensitive than others and a hiccup while flashing could cause some major issues.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] miniflight:
They don't care.

I went today and they just took it and didn't ask anything that sounds like they cared about if I am not with Bells.

I gave them my bro's phone number and info since he is with Bell, just to avoid any problems.

Just don't say something like the phone is "unlocked" lol...the phone is dead so they won't find out anyways if you don't tell them. They won't ask either.

Just tell them that you upgraded through kies and it got the problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
it's a hardware defect, if it dies it dies

after all the evidence we've seen (all the reports by our members)

if it's good it will work regardless of what firmware you use, and regardless of the way you flash the firmware

the lag fixes and froyo just accelerates the problem and makes it more evident sooner than later

which is good in a way, it's better to find out before your warranty runs out

ok im pretty sure mine is a full brick. maybe you can tell me.

also. i bought this phone at best buy, but network unlocked it to use on rogers. should i be contacting samsung directly about a replacement/fix? anyone here done that? im REALLY scared that are gonna give me a phone that i am unable to network unlock.

Mines a goner too :(

Same issue, have a forced app closure, shut the phone off and it wouldn't start up anymore. Just flashes the Galaxy S GT-I9000M white logo non-stop now.

I can put it into download mode and load up 2.1 (stock) and get to the coloured Galaxy S logo, but then it just goes to a black screen. In recovery mode, it shows stuff about not being able to mount the SD on E:\. I'd assume that's the internal flash?

Luckily I haven't had it for >30 days (on Virgin Mobile) so I'm hoping I can just exchange it and be on my way. I have to call them though apparently since I bought it online.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:

Success so far... 12 hours after upgrade.

I sucessfully upgraded to Froyo yesterday.

I had problems with Kies at first and had to do a factory reset before the upgrade. The FileSearcherforKiesFix.exe altough it detected two bad files wasn't enough to make Kies happy.

This phone was bought in october and had the voodoo lagfix installed from the begining. I disabled the lagfix before the froyo upgrade.

My previous samsung phone; the GT-8000 (Omnia II) did have an internal SD card failure after a few months of operation... Also a Bell phone. I'm really concerned by that trend with Samsung and Bell...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nemethb:
I recommend NOT to upgrade. With JH2 I had NO problems. I upgraded to JK4 and about 24 hours later (this morning) I started getting force closes. XDA App. wouldn't open and just scrolling through memory management gave me haptic feedback (even though I had it disabled) and random closes. The phone became unusable fast. I tried a reboot and the phone booted to a black screen where only the buttons lit up. I went into recovery mode and I saw some dbdata error. I figured my phone was a goner. I ended up formatting the internal memory, clearing cache and then doing a factory reset. The phone is up and running now...but for how long.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] plemen:
Well... you're going to have upgrade eventually so best to do it now while you are under warranty in case something happens...
