[Ideos S7 General] xaueious:
I think razor knows because he mentioned this elsewhere, but in case anyone sees this and tries reboot recovery...

Fastboot is actually

adb reboot bootloader

reboot recovery enters recovery and results in a factory reset
[Ideos S7 General] tuler:
Please tell me more about

Hi brother, i have one s7 here model s7-202u and i try to flash and cant boot...

Always appear on screen about fastboot mode...

And i cant boot this tablet.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCap79:
Just got a notification that OTA update version version 3.70.651.1 is available. I have a "new" evo (bought 2 weeks ago) and I'm waiting for the update to Unrevoked to be released so I can root my phone.

My question is...if I download this new OTA update will it keep me from being able to use the new unrevoked (whenever it is released)?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reprod:
I'm sure that this has been posted before but it will affected your ability to root somehow. The update is just out so there is no definitive way of knowing. Just be patient. Once you get root on your device AS IT CURRENTLY IS (no update applied) then go on ahead and flash one of the deodexed versions of the new ROM that will be flying around...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leenypost:
Just root the phone with its current software build using the unrevoked that is out now and then flash the stock 3.70 onto the phone from any of the devs. There is like 3 versions already and all of them are completely stock. Once someone figures out how to root the new build then use the ruu file that flashes the phone back to stock and unroots it..... You will then have a fresh build of the new OTA ... Root it using whatever proven method comes out and flash away....

Patience young grasshopper.... LOL
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHausx:
Unrevoked tends to corrupt newer phones, especially their 4G. They are not configured the same.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PCap79:
Well the thing is the current Unrevoked doesn't work on my phone as it CURRENTLY is...I have the newest version from the store and it's not currently supported by Unrevoked. So if Unrevoked isn't even out for the version I currently have, it's gonna take even longer to come out with a version of Unrevoked that's compatible with the new OTA update that came out today (if that makes sense lol). But i think you're right...I'll just wait for the new Unrevoked to come out for my current software and take it from there.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mingkee:
I purchased it for previous Android phones, so I download it on my NS.

Frankly I don't like the original 2.3 keyboard because it's kinda sluggish, but better keyboard is much more responsive. Give it a try.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] raeef:
No swype keyboard?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Bicster_:
Swiftkey is vastly superior to Better Keyboard.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] CaliLove310:
I'm loving the new stock keyboard. But I do wish I could install my official swype beta.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] gravis86:
+1

Swiftkey is the best, next to a hardware keyboard that is :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jaker.the.skater:
the swype beta worked for me...just download the swype installer again and then install it.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] CaliLove310:
Thanks, it does work perfectly. I was thinking it was going to give me that error saying it was registered to another device. Looks like we have a maximum of 2 devices that we can have linked to the beta account. But you can reset it once at the beta page if you reach your max.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Kubernetes:
I'm partial to Smart Keyboard Pro, but I think Swiftkey is also pretty good. Not a Swype fan myself.
[General Topics] qipengart:
Loved the Sidekick design and its battery life but really hoping to get an Android version for the Sidekick. Too bad Microsoft owns the name? or T-Mobile?

Would love to see a revival of the design.
[General Topics] Thanos_The_Mad_Titans:
Microsoft bought $500 million & own Danger OS, not Sidekick.... T mobile own Sidekick brand name :)

Our captivates can't wait for some Gingerbread cookies!!

Since hardware is virtually the same, it'd be logical to assume that porting from NS to SGS wouldn't be that time consuming..

[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
lol too late - posted it in General already this morning too :D
[Captivate Android Development] bfgarzilla9k:
YES! God, since the Nexus S specs were announced, we've really been needing this.

Even with our somewhat superior hardware, HTC devs have still been kicking our @$$ in the development department.
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Lets hope so......I think we have issues getting att bands on our cappys. But who knows. Hopefully well see some promise by the end of the day...
[Captivate Android Development] r34p3rex:
My captivate awaits this :) Only reason I haven't already gotten the Nexus is because of the lack of AT&T 3g support
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Only issue I see is the difference in file systems being used. If we can get past that it looks pretty promising.
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
The difference in file system being used shouldn't make a difference. Your getting a completely new rom and kernel.....most of us went from rfs to ext2 ext4 or jfs. Depending on what lagfix was implemented
[Captivate Android Development] a.vandelay:
filesystem won't matter, since we're getting the kernel too (as mentioned) if the kernel can be used/reoriented/patched to run on the captivate. luckily we have the kernel source.

and maybe an issue with the modem as well, for 3g??
[Captivate Android Development] dalingrin:
I would consider the filesystem a non-issue. Bigger issues are things like the Nexus S using different GPS hardware, no voice processor, possibly different modem stack.
[Captivate Android Development] emuneee:
The GPS chipset is the same as the Galaxy S.

The things that need to be worked around are:

-NFC hardware absent in SGS devices

-720P video recording present in SGS devices

-modem/cell radios

-button reordering

Thats just off the top of my head
[Captivate Android Development] XGX5309:
That, and the External SD on SGS devices is another.
[Captivate Android Development] xcaliburinhand:
Ugh, they reorganized the kernel structure once again. I really wish they would get consistent.
[Captivate Android Development] ademejia:
Nexus s rooted already via android central.
[Captivate Android Development] modest_mandroid:
Doesn't take much to root adev phone.. Its literally just 'fastboot oem unlock' at the terminal and pressing the ok button that shows up.
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Ok I will stick this for now to prevent the overload.
[Captivate Android Development] xiaoali:
I'm pretty stoked for this. I've been running stock for a few months now. I might crack and flash my phone with gingerbread.
[Captivate Android Development] JuiceBoxBoy:
I've been impatiently waiting for a port of the Nexus S rom. But i will wait a little longer until some of the bugs for fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
The lagfix app/kernel already change the RFS to EXT4, so that shouldn't be an issue at all! :D
[Captivate Android Development] hansmrtn:
Or, you could just buy the phone like me? Hahha. Thanks man!
[Captivate Android Development] Evilspawn:
the one your getting hans is att band compatible for 3g??
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
I'm loving watching gingerbread for SGS develop so quickly, mad props to all devs involved!

Donate Button

Are there specific developers that are working on Captivate port? If so, let us know if and where we can donate to show our support. And if it's possible get some donate buttons on the main post. Thanks.:)
[Captivate Android Development] kdwolf85:
Seriously? Have you even read any of this thread?
[Captivate Android Development] slider2828:
Hey DarkDvr, can you put the donation addresses of the Dev's involved? Its just easier that way....
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
I contacted Supercurio about that, but he decided not to create a paypal item for this port yet.

You can always donate him by the link in his signature =)
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
Not yet. Supercurio is working on SGS port, which also boots on captivate, but it's way too early for captivate specific build.
[Captivate Android Development] supercurio:
I invited major developers (kernel AND ROM) to a dev-only IRC channel so we can work together, and it looks good :)

If you're a dev, motivated and I forgot you (forgot a lot of people!) send me a message !

See ya :)

PS: there is no distinction between my port or CyanogenMod port anymore, we are all on the same boat now
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
Excited about all that is coming. GJ Supercurio.
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
that's the spirit! :)
[Captivate Android Development] waiting4gingerbread:
cyanogenmod + supercurio = WIN WIN WIN!!!
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
It'll be interesting to see if they can overcome the hurdles this project is presenting.

All I can say is good luck and I hope we get to see some Cookies in our phones soon! :D
[Captivate Android Development] Fortune090:
THAT is what I want to hear!! Awesome! Can't wait to see what comes of this! Wouldn't be surprised if we saw a rom that's stable tomorrow seeing who's all involved. :D

Keep up the good work guys! ;)
[Captivate Android Development] aqtrans:
Yeah this is the best news I've heard regarding the AOSP/CMod dev scene for our phones! :cool: I'm really glad to see all the devs cooperating to make these phones amazing (not that their work thus far has been subpar at all, but Gingerbread should make these things fly).
[Captivate Android Development] vvaffles:
this dev team sounds SO NICE
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
Nice Collabo

XDA DreamTeam???Woah...!!:eek:
[Captivate Android Development] ankitb4u:
I are waiting, I have been starring at this Thread.

Only if the Nexus S had HSPA+, or had launched with AT&T bands, I wouldn't be.

Either ways, I am willing to wait.

Thank you to all the Devs, who make it a breeze for users like me to just follow a "simple" guide and enjoy their hard work.

Community development at it's finest!! Legendary.

[Captivate Android Development] NDub21:
So excited to see what you all come up with! I'm fed up with Samsung's non-existent support and can't wait to have Gingerbread!
[Captivate Android Development] eatkabab:
:rolleyes: wishing the best for all our loved ones on XDA-Devs
[Captivate Android Development] modest_mandroid:
Yeah really.. Even when they try to support their own devices, their official rom releases brick more devices than the custom roms found here. Seriously Samsung, wtf. First the JH7 update wrecked a ton of captivates, now the froyo updates are wrecking vibrants and intercepts..
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
I didn't know any US Galaxy S devices had official Froyo releases...
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
Mmm yeah, I think only the "leaded" official ones that are full of bugs. Chefs used them to cook good froyo versions.
[Captivate Android Development] modest_mandroid:
The one I'm referring to is the Canadian flavor - Bell Canada Vibrant. Apparently their official froyo update would render the internal storage unusable.

[Captivate Android Development] xcaliburinhand:
Figured I would give out some captivate love.

Latest build from the GalaxyS port, now with the correct headset logic.

Built exactly the same, so follow the directions provided by supercurio.

Enjoy!
[Captivate Android Development] kennethpenn:
Woohoo! Latest build as in v3? Or v4?
[Captivate Android Development] Delgoth:
That makes me oh so excited about cyanogen. I was a little disappointed when they released 6.1 without sgs. But now I see that this is even better. Way to go team.
[Captivate Android Development] DREWSASTER:
Xd yessssssss!!!!!!

I traded my old G1 and $250 for my captivate, then when I learned that there was no cyanogenmod for my newest handset I was crushed, then crushed when I tried using the gps on a trip in california, I must have made 900 u turns, then when I looked into updating it to 2.2, more devistation, but one this is a functional decently bug free build, I think this may become a more usable piece of hardware, gosh I hope so, I wish I could afford do donate I really do. Thanks devs, your hard work brings smiles to thousands of us everyday. :)
[Captivate Android Development] boogieboogie:
hey devs, had a quick question. Is it harder to port the nexus s firmware to the galaxy s line even though the hardware is almost the same? i ask because i see the nexus one and the htc incredible (which was surprising) already have working builds. This makes me wonder if the galaxy builds will have more features or something. Oddly enough, the builds i saw on the n1 and inc have the old nexus live wallpaper instead of the new slick one. they do have the cool crt screen off display though. darn it.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
From what I know about the Cyanogen team is that they won't release a version to the public until it is rock solid. You'll probably be able to find a nightly build that mostly works, but you won't find anything officially released from the Devs that has major issues.
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
wow very nice news to see this morning.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Now, I'm certain this will be ready before At&T's crippled Froyo. I was considering ditching this phone for the nexus one. Think I'll stick around a bit ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Only thing I don't like is their choice of FS. Other than that I chose to come to XDA, eventually a dev and only reason is because the carriers bog down these devices with bloatware. Other than that it is great out of the gates.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
what's with the idea that bloat "bogs" down the phone? if you dont start the app it dont run. as long as they dont disable google features(att) or replace google apps with inferior apps from competitors (verizon) i dont care. but if i cared that much i wouldnt buy a phone under contract. i'd buy a nexus s. for now ill flash modded roms and wait patiently for this, as well as wait for a RC for cyanogen. i dont hate touchwiz or samsung apps and widgets but i want aosp apps, not nessesarily the aosp look. a working dsp manager and other apps would make me very happy.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
have you ever actually looked at what is running in the background on a stock setup? you would be surprised what services ATT thinks you need....THAT is bloatware. also, i prefer to NOT have it in my app drawer since i refuse to use any of the 'trial' crap they try to shove down my throat.
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
Some of the AT&T apps autorun in the background and slow down your phone, while sucking down unwanted (and potentially expensive) data. Others are just traps designed to lock you into services requiring additional monthly fees. These apps are also not user removable until you root. There are reasons enough to hate that ****. If they really are so proud of these AT&T apps, put them on the market and see if anyone would even download them for free. TouchWiz does add very few nice features, but it is a stupid skin overall, designed to imitate rather than innovate. If Samsung loves it so much, they should again put it up on the market and let us have vanilla Gingerbread now, and TouchWiz 3.0 for Gingerbread when it's ready, and if we want it. Nexus S is nice, but it's only available on T-Mo, so it's not an option for me right now. Removing the Samsung and AT&T crapware makes the Captivate what it should have been in the first place.
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
you obviously have never taken the time to look at what apps or tasks are running in the back ground at any given time.
[Captivate Android Development] Athailias:
Not only does it run in the background... If you close it with task killer... IT KEEPS COMING BACK TO KILL YOU!

But seriously its called bloatware because its heinous.
[Captivate Android Development] TheShamsMan:
Awesome! Will @cmsrc will be keeping us update via Twitter on the progress?? Or someone else?
[Captivate Android Development] boogieboogie:
is it good or bad news that according to supercurios twitter, there wont ever be a time table on the release of this.
[Captivate Android Development] t-readyroc:
Same goes for any CM release. Asking about dates over on those forums is grounds for banning. Heh.

*Edit - the supercurio + cyanogen news is freakin' AWESOME. Especially since cyanogen was known to not be working on the original CM > SGS port. These two guys working together is gonna be like some whacked-out SGS/CM/Voltron destructo-madness :D
[Captivate Android Development] ademejia:
just got v3 to boot looks badass
[Captivate Android Development] jaredcormier:
Not good nor bad news, that's just the nature of development.
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Therefore keep killing it....it keeps coming back....constant strain on cpu,slow down,bogg...whatever ....because you think your killing it. Just take that crap out like the trash on garbage day.

BTW...Does this mean my Captivate and Nexus 1 will combine like Phonetron?

:):):):):):):)
[Captivate Android Development] Athailias:
No all the Galaxy phones make up phonetron with the Nexus S as the head...

If i didnt have to work tonight, id make a phonetron pic for ya :D

I'll stop posting off topic now... sorry...
[Captivate Android Development] cesierra:
what's your guess? I'd say first 2.3 official leak for the Captivate, will appear by next week.
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
LOL remember every time you ask for an ETA for release a developer slowly dies.

So please folks save the dev's brain cells and stop asking for an ETA.

As they like to say on Cyanogen - it will be ready when its ready.
[Captivate Android Development] cumanzor:
I know this is an unpopular opinion, and granted, I used TouchWiz for less than a week but...

I actually liked it.
[Captivate Android Development] Athailias:
I'm done now.
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
awesome!:D:D:D
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Thats hilarious....if only we could get that as a boot screen for 2.3
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
LOL You get a thanks just for that image - made me laugh.
[Captivate Android Development] g1ddy:
I believe this is not a 2.3 ROM just a 2.2 "cloning" gingerbread
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
Not so. It is a 2.3 kernel pointing to a folder on the sdcard for the system files. It is not 2.2 with a Gingerbread skin.

P.S. - Never mind. I was thinking you were commenting on the Supercurio ROM, not the Eugene one.
[Captivate Android Development] drd.sngn:
Phonetron - Defender of the Galaxy! ! ! LOL
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
Shouldn't phonetron have a few more parts (where's the Epic?, Bell Vibrant?). I also think he should be wearing an Armani suit.
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
it is still young.....lol

It gives me goosebumps to see these great Devs join together and am happy for all the recognition that they will get.
[Captivate Android Development] hellishhorses:
Or at least one of those tuxedo t-shirts, that way it looks legit.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
i was under the impression that the nexus was sold without contract from best buy and not carrier locker. i understand that it doesnt not have the 850 band enabled by default but does anyone have the phone yet? do we know if it can be enabled? i was under the impression that it can be on the vibrant and gt i9000.

t-mo may be the only us provider at the moment that it works with out of the box 100% but it's really not a t-mo phone, it is for any gsm provider.
[Captivate Android Development] flashman2002:
Ok..how about we stop the banter about how Samsung is as a company and their lack of firmware releases. Focus on what is happening and the possibility of having GB on the SGS by two very skilled Devs!
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I agree...
[Captivate Android Development] jaredcormier:
Much more than two devs, I know of four off hand that have done something on the kernel.

SC, xcalibur, fenfir, pawitp... I'm sure there are at least several others involved in some way.
