[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fydon:
I installed the new beta on my Galaxy S, but it just forced closed. This may be due to the fact that I couldn't remove the lib file though.

Also I restarted after remove the old one by using Titanium Backup, but when ever an application got focus it force closed. After restarting that fixed up.

I couldn't restore the old version of Swype, so I had to reflash to get it back.

Hopefully we'll get the self updating Swype soon :(.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leion:
Can you tell me how to mount /system as RW in adb?

I am only able to access in RO

EDIT: i managed to get to system in RW mode after rebooting to CWM recovery. I guess this is the only way?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spydr11:
Use sgs tools to remove it, you can find it in the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrixtonBiker:
Ahh good tip - worked nicely!

However - now I can't get Swype to install!

I'm officially on the beta, so am using the installer rather than trying to sideload an apk.

But at some point it prompts me to authorise its installation, saying "this is a system application - are you sure you want to replace it?" - although I've removed (in theory) the system version of swype.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spydr11:
I'm having the same issue... tried deleting all the files associated with swype using root explorer, no luck...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spydr11:
Figured it out, deleted the libswype file then restarted, so far its working great.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jubei71:
This really sucks.

I'm a new SGS user and all this rooting and ADB stuff is quite beyond me. All I want is a simple way to update Swype that came pre-installed and apparently that is not possible.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strangematrixx:
I have recently purchased Galaxy S and the phone runs fine for most part. But when I try to use GPRS on the phone, its slows down a lot and often freezes for several seconds. I only have this issue while using GPRS and not wifi. As soon as I switch GPRS off the phone gets back to its normal speed.

Does anyone know the likely cause of the problem and its solution? I am currently using Android 2.1 and the 2.2 upgrade is not available in my region.

When I try to add Facebook under Accounts and Sync, it just loads to a white screen then returns back to the Accounts and Sync screen.

I've tried signing off of Facebook, then adding the account. It does ask for the password, then signs in. Then goes back to the Accounts and Sync screen not asking if I want to sync contacts.

Anyone else run into this?

[Android Apps and Games] Mistah Random:
I dont even get the option to put in a password all it just goes back to the accounts and synch sceen
[Android Apps and Games] dEris:
Lol I'm not that dumb. Everything works on the phone. Browser, Facebook app etc. But when I want to add the account to Accounts and Sync so I can get it to sync pics, it just goes to blank screen then returns back to the Accounts and Sync screen.

Yes I know I can use SyncMyPix but I'd rather not.
[Android Apps and Games] Amedee.VanGasse:
Same problem on Motorola Milestone.

The Facebook app works, but there is no Facebook account in 'Accounts & Sync'.

Also in the Facebook app's settings, the setting to enable/disable syncing is missing.

This is with 'Facebook for Android' on the Market.

There is a long topic on this forum with a Facebook.apk that can be downloaded & installed manually. It is the Facebook.apk that has been copied from a Motorola Droid, where the app works as expected. The file size is 831431 bytes. However that app is unable to connect to Facebook. The reason is probably that it is an old app (the typic is from 2009 so it's over a year old) and Facebook's API has changed last year, 2010. In case the reader missed it: it's january 2011 while I'm writing this post.

A solution could be that someone with a working Facebook app uploads the file /system/apps/Facebook.apk to XDA. It's a free app from Facebook so it should be legal to do this.

[G Tablet General] ByByIpad:
Followed the directions on this forum:

1. Installed clockworkmod

2. Flashed with TnT 3.00

3. Got full market to work

Started downloading apps.

This Tablet is awesome! I bought 12/2 and returned 12/4. Then followed this forum and the threads while I deciding on a new Tablet. Decided to try the Gtablet again and purchased again 12/18/10.

This thing blows away my friends' Ipads. Now, finally an Ipad killer.

Thank you to the great people on this forum. You guys are the best.
[G Tablet General] pules:
I miss my gtab

but I just couldn't get over how crappy the screen and view angle on it.

I think its hardware is amazing and the price is great on it too. Loved the long....LONG battery life too, but how can viewsonic have such a crappy screen and such low viewing angle?
[G Tablet General] chadti99:
I agree with ByBy. Picked my Gtab up on Sears Outlet and I've got TnT Lite running with Launcher Pro, Flash, and Market access and its awesome! Yah yah the screen isn't the best but if you hold it right it's fine, overall it's a great piece of hardware especially at a sub $300 price.

It's not quite an iPad killer but the open nature of Android really allows you to customize your experience and this is something iPad lacks. Couple that with the dual core Tegra2, Adobe Flash support, incredibly long battery life, and a webcam and this Tablet has the potential to be a serious competitor. We just need more support from Viewsonic(Kernel source and drivers), nVidia(GPU driver improvements), and Google(Honeycomb!).

Hopefully Viewsonic will release the kernel source as promised and we'll see even better speed optimizations and possibly even an OC capable kernel. I'm sure we'll continue to see more improvements with software and drivers as competitors begin to launch other Tegra2 tablets.

Cmon Viewsonic, release the source already!

Big thanks to the our local devs, the Fantastic Four, for making this tablet run the way it should have right out of the box!
[G Tablet General] rushless:
The display is fine as long as you view from left, right or down. Viewing up to the the display is the problem. Though the viewing angle of the 101 is a little better (not a lot), the color depth of the Gtablet is far better than the 101.

For the $350 I paid, the display and total system ability is a solid purchase. Even at $400 it would be, considering the Tegra 2, USB host and 16gb internal storage.

added: Still, if the display had better angles- wow.
[G Tablet General] cutterjohn:
Thing is just so fast, it's making me really consider the elocity a7 over the Nook Color as my 7" complementary tablet even though I'm almost 100% certain that support from elocity won't be nearly as good as B&N support for the NC.

And as a secondary aside the display of the NC isn't swaying me enough against another Tegra 2 and "crappy" 800x480 screen...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathanscott1981:
Hi guys and gals,

This may sound like a really silly question, but I'm currently running the JPU firmware which i had no trouble flashing with Odin, and Darky's ROM V6 is working like a beast. I want to put the XXJPX firmware on my phone now and am having trouble finding the firmware with Modem, PDA and CSC files. This may just be due to a lack of understanding on my part but am really confused with it now.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seltaeb:
You can download the firmware from samfirmware.com. After unzipping the firmware archive you will get a single TAR file which you should stick in the PDA section in Odin to flash. No need for re-partitioning.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluecluster:
Darky's ROM 6 is based on JPX. So unless you want a clean install, you already have it.

[HD2 General] Scabes24:
Hey guys,

I'm in need of solution to an annoying problem.

Earlier today one of the HD2 Android chefs, Motoman, shattered his Hd2 beyond repair. Luckily, his friend had left an Hd2 at his place assuming it was bricked. The device is a tmous HD2 (fairly new) that Motoman previously Hard-SPL'd. The device had worked fine for a while after that and started acting this way out of nowhere.. It can still enter bootloader but when booting normally it won't get past the splash screen.. the weird part is that the red bootup numbers don't show at all. Bootloader shows that hspl is on the device (as shown below)

PB81120 SS-B3
SPL-2.08.hspl 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x50

I've tried suggested all solutions I can think of including:

- Hard reset

- Task29

- Flashing Radios (yes, the correct versions)

- Flash stock using standard RUU (2.10 | 2.13 | 3.14)

- Flash stock using flashaholicRUU (2.10 | 2.13 | 3.14)

- Removing HSPL and then flashing stock

- Replacing HSPL and then flashing stock

NOTES:

- Can't flash via SD because he only has the stock sandisk 16gb

- When he had tried to flash the first time (after the half-brickness occured) the RUU didn't show a current OS image.. as if the device task29'd itself.

- The flash completes with success everytime and the splash screen changes with the different rom flashing attempts so it's flashing correctly but there seems to be some sort of block on boot..

- The device was mainly used to run android.

So........... is this a hardware issue?
[HD2 General] motoman234:

This is what happened to my HD2 which leaves the reason why I need to get this other one fixed :(.

[HD2 General] AngelDeath:
Whythe HD2 willboot without an SDcard, maybe the sd port is bad, I would think getting the phone to boot is the primary issue here? The idea is to elminiate all possibilities, and the SDcard is the first thing I would remove and try booting.

But earlier motoman found a quick solution..

But I'm interested to know, since you brought up JTAG, is that the only way to reflash the bootloader?

I installed Market v 2.2.7 ontop of a VEGAn 1.0 beta3b3 rom and it was working fine.. I had to wipe to factory and now I get FC after FC on the market..

reinstalled VEGAn rom, same thing, FC.. wiped data, cache, dalvik, did the market "trick" and still force closes..

Installed the latest TnT Lite 3.00 doing all the wipes and market still FC's.. Anyone able to get me the version that comes on those ROM's? I need the 2.1 version we all had.. I Can't seem to get this damn market FC issue fixed and need help.
[G Tablet General] sniffs:
Nevermind, I found it in one of the forums on here. Works again.

Now to get it all up and running, reapply the Vegan ROM, reapply the market and hope for the best.

reason why I had to wipe was because I rebooted and during a reboot, I unplugged a usb keyboard and I think that hosed some drivers because my launcher kept FC over and over.. weird but I think I can manage now..
[G Tablet General] sniffs:
Bah! So I installed the old market.. It's not FC'ing any longer however it's not displaying all the "normal" apps.. nothing from Google comes up.

I've got the modified line in the build.prop, did clear cache on market, clear data on google framework, rebooted, waited a few mins.. nada.

I'm trying that Samsung line that someone posted and hoping for the best..

wtf! Why can't things just work dangit!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
Make sure you flash the recovery for Magic and not MyTouch.

Place your custom rom on the root of your sdcard.

The reboot to recovery, make a nandroid backup just in case and then install your custom rom.

Simple as that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Aidejonas:
OK i know then but i can't install recovery please give me a guide how to do it cause when i press "ClockworkMod Recovery" at the top of ROM Manager nothing happens..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
When you select Flash ClockworkMod Recovery a window should pop up that says

Confirm Phone Model.

You should now have three options:

HTC Dream (GSM) <--- Use this for G1

Ion/Mytouch (GSM) <--- Use this for 32b devices

HTC Magic (GSM) <---- Use this for 32a devices

You need to select "HTC Magic (GSM)"

Afterwards select Reboot to recovery.

If it still doesn't work then to a hard reset (aka battery pull) and try again. Sometimes you have to try it a couple times to get it to work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] keinengel:
Does the clockworkmod recovery detect what radio/spl the phone's running? There should be two versions for the 32A Magic, if you ask me: old radio (3.22) and new radio (6.35), as they use different partitioning schemes and need different recoveries.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Aidejonas:
I just soft reset and still the same, when i press "Flash clockworkmod recovery" it comes like a little black "progressbar" and a little load circle over "Flash Clockworkmod Recovery" for like 2 seconds and then it dissapears and nothing more.. I've got v2.5.0.4 and i got it from 4shared.com cause i don't find it in the market.. And i tried many other versions from 4shared and it's the same with all of them..

Please? ..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
Use my guide (check my signature).

You will find all the needed files and steps.

Just skip the root part since you already got root.

After doing custom recovery, flash any good rom for the 32A device with new radio, e.g. RCmagic v.6

These are the steps

1. root with androot (seems you have done that)

2. install ROM manager

2.1 flash clockworkmod 2.5 (option at the top in the ROM manager app)

3. install ROM

3.1 require downloading ROM provided in ROM manager, or manually copying .zip file to root of sd card and choose "install zip from sd card" in ROM manager

make sure the ROM is for 6.35 radio (it's told in the title)

Ya but the problem is ROM Manager i cant download ClockworkMod Recovery when i press Install Clockwork..... nothing happens just a little progressbar at the top that dissapears after like 2 sec.. i tried many versions from www.4shared.com
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mumilover:
OK... we try again.

You have a working system, and my suggestion is to LEAVE IT the way it is - you clearly way over your head.

If you don't want to stop now, then you have to do the following step:

----flash custom recovery----

To do that you have many options which some already have been suggested for you...

In my guide you will also see a VERY easy solution.

I don't know why you have to make it hard for yourself.

Just do only step 5 and 7 from my guide.

That's the solution, but if you find that to be hard, then you WILL MESS UP YOUR DEVICE!

Take my suggestion and leave your device as it is... you do not have the required capabilities!

Just flash the original ROM (Eclair 2.1 - RUU 1.37) and it will work like a charm.

Using OTA update will result in losing superuser permissions.
