So I've been on rubix focused for a while and I didn't really want to update to 2.3.320 (leak) but now I heard we have 2.3.340 (official). Can someone explain how I can get to this from 2.3.15. And will I have to update the rom I'm using or would it work? Sorry I tried to figure this out myself and almost bricked my phone. So now I'm kinda stuck and need some help

Thanks!
[Droid X General] ZuneNinja!:
I am in the same boat. I am on 2.3.20 . I'm not really sure how I got to this version in the first place. I'm on rubiX 1.8.6 . How do I update to the latest and greatest, and what version is that actually?

Thanks in advance.
[Droid X General] RedBank:
There are going to be plenty of people here that will chime in to help...but I just got done (literally) doing this today. I was on 2.3.15 OTA (rooted) running ApeX and wasn't even going to go through the hassle. But...ever since the Gingerbread sdk was released and all of these fresh new roms & themes are popping up...I finally said F it and did it. The basics of it go like this:

1. Backup everything etc...

2. You need to find yourself a copy of 2.2 ota stock, download to pc and flash that to your phone using rsd lite 4.9

3. Then you can pull the update down from your phone (takes 5 minutes from beginning to end)

4. Use Z4root and root your phone (was able to get root on my first try in under a minute)

5. Create another backup and be sure to name it 2.2.1 stock so you now have a starting point to fall back on when you start tweaking your phone.

This is my personal fave go to page that I use as a guide to any and all of my X mods. It doesn't get much better than this if you ask me!

[Droid X General] Droid-Xer:
If you don't have a stock backup with all bloatware intact, it'll be easier to SBF. If you have a stock backup, flash it, ensure all bloat is there, and download update and install. I removed bootstrap to be on the safe side.
[Droid X General] ElephantGlue:
Am I correct in assuming that once weve updated to 2.3.34 we cannot flash back to a backup that we were running 2.3.15 on, nor can we SBF back to 2.3.15?
[Droid X General] kdkinc:
DO NOT GO BACK !!!:eek::eek:

why would you anyways???

:cool::cool:
[Droid X General] helowrenchturn2:
okay, after all the reading i've decided that i should sbf instead of trying to figure out all the bloat that may or may not have been removed from my wife's X. That being said, once in bootloader, is it possible to get out of the bootloader without flashing anything? I want to verify the bootloader version to make certain that i have to proper .sbf file.

yes, i do have a backup of the original 2.2.....does that help?

i made this process more difficult than i had anticipated by installing another rom before trying the .340 update. now it starts the install then reboots and says "update failed". anyway, any tips or pointers that can be given are greatly appreciated....thx
[Droid X General] breedingh8:
I have a question I'm running 2.3.15, rooted with rubix ROM+theme---- already at 2.2.1 / what are the benifits of updating to. 340, and I'm guessing i can't just flash the sbf without starting over, rooting, ROM etc. Just not sure what of a difference there is for going to. 340 when I'm already at 2.2.1 anyone? ?

[Trophy General] msimatov:
I purchased a few basic free apps via Marketplace on my PC (Shazam, Youtube, Voice Recorder, Google Search), everything went okay, I got the message that the application was successfully installed every time. But when I disconnected my phone from the PC, the applications I installed weren't on the apps list. I connected the phone again in a few hours, synced it and still those apps didn't show on it. I tried to install them again, but I got the message they are already installed. Help?

the same problem, can anyone help ??
[Desire General] Mark One:
Did the 2.29.405.2 update OTA initially and noticed problems. So reinstalled it from SD card but no help.

Bought sim free, unbranded/locked and never rooted:

Cannot dial out from phone lists or contacts. Going to phone and clicking on an entry in the call list does not launch phone call any more. Going to contacts, opening one and clicking on an available phone number does not launch phone any more.

The only way I can make a call is to punch it in on the keypad! Grrr.

Wifi connects to my home base after a reboot but, after an undetermined amount of time it drops the connection and cannot get it again. Going to Wifi settings shows it scans, connects and tries to obtain IP address. After a short time it gives up, turns wifi off and starts over. Again & again.

Cannot get it to connect again without another reboot.

This is a crippling loss of functionality for me. Can anyone suggest a way to roll back this update so my phone works as id did?

Many thanks all,

M1
[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
First try a hard rest(you will lose all personal data on the phone,pictures and other stuff on the SD will be fine). If that does not work try either the 2.29.405.2 or 2.10.405.2 RUU.
[Desire General] Mark One:
More info - to my horror, around 15 minutes after I had tried and failed to make calls from contacts the phone started making them one after the other as if they were stuck in a spool or something! Ouch - any thoughts?

Thanks to all for help on this. Decided worth a trouble shoot before a hard reset and culprit seems to have been an app - extended controls widget. Removed this and all seems well again.

I was stuck at 2.29 update.

Then i used this guide and windows tool.

So i did this process and it rolled my phone back to stock android 2.1 rom 1.X

The first version that the phone was bought with.

This tool will boot the phone into bootloader and load a stock 1.x rom ota off the sd card as the tool will extract it to sd card and then load it.

This will wipe all your data not sure about the sd card as i dont remember any of that because i formatted my sd card after i had used the tool.

Thats because i had rooted my phone and tried custom sense hd rom. :)

The only reason i had was of the battery usage as the consumption was very badly increased and that the 2.29 rom was unstable.

PS: I did first try the htc service in Denmark. They couldn't help me and said i was stuck with the 2.29 rom update. :/
[Desire General] Popenda:
After my phone got rolled/flashed back to stock android 2.1.

The next day in the morning i could upgrade again to android 2.2 rom ver. 2.10 OTA from htc servers. :D

Maybe this works for you as i did for me and others.
[Desire General] Mark One:
Turns out it wasn't the app.

After a couple of days playing ok my sim free stock htc desire is unstable again.

Cut me off mid call - went to phone and clicked on last call entry - absolutely nothing happened, repeated with same problem. Exited phone to home screen then opened contacts and tried to make call from there - same behavior, a complete hang.

No web access either so opened wifi manager to find it hanging on "obtaining IP address" from my home network and continually shutting down and restarting wifi automatically at this stage.

Noticed general UI lag and several apps failing to open too.

Left phone alone and again, around 10 minutes later all of the actions - including trying to make the phone calls started running one after the other. Like everything had been caught in a spool or something. After this all seemed OK until it happened all over again later.

Although the UI seemed OK and some apps worked as expected, the only way to get phone and wifi working whilst it was hung was a warm boot.

Dreading a hard reset as it's going to waste another day or two getting everything reconfigured just so (can't find a back up solution that does everything - multiple mail account settings etc) but looks like only option.

Will try going back to mikep99's suggested rom as soon as I have time and will not be responding to an HTC OTA auto update offer again.

Grrr.
[Desire General] Mark One:
I still suspect an app conflict.

Can anyone recommend a util that might give me a clue which app / sys process could be hogging system / radio resources?

Hey there.

I have just won a HTC Trophy on a seminar. Despite the system's limitations, the phone is great, super-fast, great screen, good sound quality...

There is only one thing that is keeping me from using it.

It is locked and works only with vodafone (Portugal) sim cards, and with other carriers sim cards it asks for a unlock code.

Is there any way to get this code? Any website (I'm willing to pay if it is a reasonable price). Vodafone PT says they will unlock it for 99€, which I think is too much.

Thanks in advance,

Best Regards from Portugal,

CarlosRodrigues

Try contact with Microsoft, they will give you the code, i brougth mine in Spain because in th time was inexistent here in Portugal and it brings the code to unlock.

Hello!

Welcome all galaxy s and android owners :) Im quite new to this hardware and software, in fact i spent all weekend trying to understand this machine...

Eventually, i fixed 3-combo bug, updated android from 2.1 to 2.2.1 JPU and applied speedMod from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=822756

And im wondering, do i really have so much ram? I have system info widget, it shows only about 150-190, on android 2.1 it was about 120-160, everything looks like my galaxy s has only 256 MB of memory (i just cant believe that) :O How can i check it more accurately?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXTN:
Hey mate,

The reason why you can only see 339mb (or there abouts) of ram free is because the OS reserves some space for critical system apps.. Imagine if you couldn't receive calls because your live wallpaper and that game you are playing was using up all your ram.

Hope this answers your question,

Alex

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rafi92:
By right our phone has 512MB.

However, some of the memory needs to be use for critical applications (e.g. running the phone etc.) therefore we are not able to unlock all 512mb for our use.

What you are able to see (since you're using SpeedMod kernel, it will be 339MB) is the memory available for OUR use. Do note that our phone needs to use part of that 339MB RAM to load up applications/boot up therefore you would not get 339MB free (rather about 120MB free ++ out of 339)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auzy:
Actually, that's a common assumption I hear which gets thrown around here but has never actually been proven. Apparently it's a memory hole, which means devices are using it. If it were reserved for apps, it would probably still show up in total RAM. Remember, Android is smart enough to kill apps as needed when more ram is required. Furthermore, freeing RAM doesn't take much work. So this explanation doesn't make much sense imho.

The reality might actually be that Samsung haven't had time to dynamically allocate the space with their drivers, so they took a shortcut until they had time to optimise.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dakine:
Regardless of amounts I can say that 2.2.1 is the first firmware where memory management does not appear to be an issue.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sullson:
Ok i found out that i actually have 339 Mb of memory. The problem is that all the time at least 130 mb are in use. I think that all the stand by android and samsung apps should work on the memory that stands in 512-339 and it shouldnt take my memory space. I saw 339 in task manager, also over there i see that samsung "steals" from it about 130. In addition it process running i see only about 30/40 memory in use. Android takes 16 mb. Any1 can explain this to me?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etm11871:
I have rooted my Captivate with Cognition 2.1 and decided to try a new rom. Cognition 2.2. In the middle of the process the update would not complete and after an hour of waiting I pulled the usb cable. Now it does not power at all or make a connection with the laptop. I have tried all sorts of three button and two button methods along with building the homemade jig but it still does not go.

On the three battery prongs the one on the left is facing up. Would this keep the phone from charging or starting up. There is wear marks on the battery on that spot so I would assume it is making connection. From what I read these phones do come back to life but it is a charging issue then it will not happen. Also was thinking that the captivate will power on without a battery through the USB or power cable.

Have talked to ATT and they will not do a warranty on the phone because of the bent prong (does not matter if it has nothing to do with whats wrong with the phone) it has physical damage.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 88EVGAFTW:
well that just sucks don't it? lols :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bencaptivate:
i know this is probably a pretty obvious question but did you try to bend the prong back so it matches the other ones?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etm11871:

here are some pictures of the battery pronges
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geokhentix:
They might not do a warranty exchange, but you aren't killed. I don't see why you think taking the phone apart is going to make any difference, as the prong is damaged on the outside of the phone.

As for if thats the cause of the brick, I doubt it. Unless you bent the prong AFTER you pulled the USB cable, i don't think it's the problem. It wouldn't work for awhile and then decide not to just because you botched a flash.

When you bend them back into place, does it look normal before it pops back? And I work at AT&T, I deal with that crap every day. Word to the wise; don't mention it, they don't bother looking. ;)

Late Edit: Has your prong been bent before, and is the wear mark on the batteries connector in the same spots as the other ones? With the way yours is positioned, it might not be making a full connection.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etm11871:
I do not think the battery prong is my problem either. The girl at the store mentioned it to the so called Android specialist and she said that was physical damage and because of that ATT would charge me $454 for a new phone even if it had nothing to do with why the phone will not turn on. I would have to assume that I am now black flagged on my account.

I am going to hold off on taking the phone apart and see about trying some other suggestions first. Of course not sure what those suggestions are at this point.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyMike01:
This is not Development related.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Konner920:
That same thing happened to me, it still worked fine for me, but I ended up bricking it a bit later. I used insurance and got a new phone, bricked it, sent both in to samsung, the fixed the prongs on the broken one, (yeah I didn't send back the phone to AT&T's insurance, **** em) and reflashed both of them to stock firmware, and got them both back, in working condition. But always make sure you have Button combos before flashing. In the Wiki there's a link to DesignGear's fix you can flash with Clockwork.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superdog404:
I think I would just carefully push the bad pin down as you insert the battery. Don't take the battery out unless you have to.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
I don't understand the need to pull the phone apart. As a temp fix, u could try soldering a small copper wire piece to the battery terminal, either on the battery or on the phone.

If you don't want to get into the mess of soldering, place the battery and push the single strand wire into it so the contact is made. Or else u could put the wire on the bottom and bend it little so it stands up touching the connector, and place the battery on top of it.

Loving my G-tab with VegaN-beta3. Question for all the more experienced users/devs -- have any of you noticed a significant battery drain while in sleep mode?

From a fully charged g-tab, I put it into airplane mode so no radios are on, and then power the unit into suspend mode. After ONE hour I check the battery by turning the unit on and the meter says 95% now.

My question is this "normal" behavior. This seems kind of high drain for a g-tab in sleep mode. I suppose I can try resetting the battery statistics by booting into CWM recovery.
