Ok.. Plan B :)

You should be able to find the old Market app inside the *.zip file of any ROM you have downloaded. Just make sure they are 2.2 Froyo ROMs

Open up the *.zip file and go into system/app and look for (I'm 99% sure) "MarketUpdater.apk"

Copy that file to your SDCard and install using your file manager - should overwrite everything and hopefully your good.

Also.. you could go to your Menu --> Settings --> Applications and probably uninstall the current Market app you have downloaded first - delete any cache/data under there first before uninstalling.

Hopefully that will throw back on the original market app and your all set.

The only problem with that is... It was this one click downloader thing... Odin3. So I don't know... It also won't let me reupdate it for some reason....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Hrm.. This is from the OTA JH7 zip I have lying around. Give this a try and see if it works.

If not you will need to re-flash back to stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bullseye8877:
Could you supply me with a good rom thats easy to download and has the market and ****, like android 2.2, because the odin crap doesn't work for me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Hrm.. I'd say go here if you wish to install a custom ROM. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=819105

Then a few options you have is Cognition, Auxura, or Assonance.

I've ran all of them and they are all great ROM's. I currently am running Assonance with the Gingerbread theme and it runs great.

Just make sure to do the reading first then download the ROM and you should be on your way.... just remember failure to follow the directions if on you and your warranty is already toast :)

Its already too late for my warrenty..... But I'll go ahead and try these. Thanks.

Actually. Something that would REALLY help would be helping me get into download mode. Every time i plug my phone into the computer in download mode it says usb device not recognized. How do i fix this? I've tried about every samsung drivers... None of them work... If i could get it into download mode i could get it working easily
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeyrey:
I read that the specs for this phone says 4gb internal storage with 1.1gb available for app storage.. I just wanted to know what happens to the rest of the 3gb's?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
Chip was formated for speed, not for capacity so we will never be able to regain "missing gb" Go into G2 section, it's explained in there quite well.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CBConsultation:
Agreed. The chip was intended for use much like the L2/L3 cache in a desktop/laptop computer. This allows faster I/O calls, reads and writes.

Unfortunately T-Mo could have done a much better job in advertising with regard to user specs but hey, this phone rocks so who really cares!

[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
Does anyone know how production cycles (either for Nexus S or in general) work? In other words, what's considered the second batch/wave of Nexus S being shipped to Best Buy? How early do kinks/issues get hammered out in the production cycle (I guess this depends on how closely Samsung is getting feedback too)? If one were to buy a Nexus S a month from its release date (say mid January 2011, for example's sake), would they be getting a different unit, presumably better, with the kinks/reported issues worked out? How long/many months would it be, give or take, before we can expect a Nexus S with early reported issues addressed?

I'm just trying to understand the relationship between production and markets a little more.
[Nexus S General] DKYang:
I don't think the second batch would be a better unit per say. If they made a ton right now, then Samsung can slowly manufacture new ones while waiting to hear if there were any major defects, but if they are being sold out in Best Buy stores. I can see the second batch not having any fixes if there were any that needed to be applied. Actually, they could be in production right now. Perhaps by the third or fourth wave, there would be fixes, if any.

According to this Vibrant user, he got a better gps antenna (or something) with the October manufacture ship date. I believe there was also a July and September ship dates for the Vibrant, but don't quote me on that. I know July is fact, but not sure about September.

Just my guess.
[Nexus S General] onthecouchagain:
I see, thanks. Then I guess there's no real difference getting this phone from now and January.
[Fascinate General] atrich0608:
1st let me say that I am tired of not having 2.2 and not having things work with 2.1. Yes i know I did not read feel free to point and laugh. I have don't be best to find a fix before posting but can't find a fix.

I installed new gingerbread keyboard from the fallowing article and link. http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/06/download-gingerbread-keyboard-for-rooted-devices/

Ok so I now have the voicesearch force close message.

I reinstalled the LatinIME.zip from post one from the fallowing article.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8606369#poststop

This installs and the phone boots but still force close for stock keyboard.

Please advice on if I can fix this. I don't have root file explorer. If i must learn to use ADB now would be a good time for me to get my feet wet.
[Fascinate General] soba49:
If you are lucky, someone with dev experience might pop on and tell you how to reset your keyboard from a shell. I have no clue whatsoever.

If I had your problem, I would either do a fresh rom install like black hole or super clean with a data clear, or I would try to troubleshoot if I were in the right mood.

To do the latter, I would open up the update that messed me up, and look at the files involved or possibly even the install script. Once I recognized the install package for the keyboard, I would open a shell (or root explorer) and ls /system/app and /data/data. If o found any matches... I would probably delete them (well knowing that I might brick my phone). I would only even consider this risk if o knew I had two keyboards installed. Then I would cross my fingers and reboot.

Shyeah right. Actually I would just restore a backup with cw recovery and call it a day.

Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
[Fascinate General] Bawb3:
Maybe try downloading and installing a new keyboard from/with Rom Manager? Sonofskywalker3 has a few keyboards on there to install. I'm pretty new myself but thats what I'd try.

or do what soba said and install a fresh rom with a data/cache wipe.
[Fascinate General] CNemo7539:
I've installed GB keyboard and it works fine for me. Stock DJ05.

I would try simply disable it in the settings.

What exactly you do to get FC?
[Fascinate General] atrich0608:
I installed a 2.1 APK and it went fine. I just lost my original keyboard. No Biggie.

Hey,

I'm just wondering..

Is this screen off animation of the new android true??

The CRT style animation.

I once saw a video with really bad quality but i have not seen any other vids.

Can someone confirm this? Maybe with a video of decent quality?

I don't see why he wouldn't. There are at least two ROMs based on Gingerbread here.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] mero01:

[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Overloaded:
I have seen it.. I'm running a custom ROM atm.

But i meant like 2.3 roms that fully work :P

I want all functionallity so i'll wait until HTC releases some Gingerbread stuff :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] phunkycow:
The framework is changed on gingerbread. I don't think you can find that animation in the anim folder, as the rest of the window transitions :) Must be "hardcoded" somewhere.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Visionikz03:
they were having the same issues over in the EVO forums trying to port the animation to froyo but no one could find the xml... i know that its still controlled by the animation controller because if u set spare parts to "fast" on both animations the screen off animation stops so it must be a speed thing...

[Galaxy S I9000 General] jpaik:
I don't entirely trust this new thread. I think the OP is looking to blame the end-user for the problems with the Galaxy S. I hope I'm wrong about this.

The OP posted this in another thread:

"I know well enough how people tend to blame everything but themselves on many cases, and on many cases, the informations relevant to a case is withold from the users themselves...

My Theorie on the failure rate is basicaly this: Most users don't want to "lose their data" so they don't hardreset the thing and clean the caches up before and after a flash, making it more prone to issues (installing any os as an "upgrade" on top of another OS is always buggy at least). "
[Galaxy S I9000 General] haloimplant:
If it takes a hard reset before/after/whatever for the update to work right then the update process should do it.

I was actually surprised that the JK4 update didn't wipe everything, it came up with my home screens reset but all of my apps and data intact. The last update (JH2 I think) wiped everything. I was all backed up and ready for JK4 to do the same.

After some glitches in the few days following the update I did a reset/format myself. Things were working great for a few more days until I got the dreaded internal SD card failure last night. Blaming the users for this mess is preposterous.

Under the battery (you have to remove it first) , you have the date besides the last codebar. On mine it states 10.09

This is not about trust or blame, a theory is to be proven right or wrong. To prove or disprove a theory you must gather data.

This is not intended to blame or to wine, this is intended to find the reason why and advise the user and maybe provide the builder with something more than what is provided as of now.

My main theorie consist of either

-Build Date (issue got fixed after hardware revision) (so far, all I can see is the august built)

-Application installed after (wich caused corruption on the SD after it installs itslef, so it must be data needy)

-The way the user updates the thing. (this theory is already disproven AFAIK)

-Updating without HardReset (this theory is already disproven AFAIK)

-Updating without Cache cleaning (this theory is already disproven AFAIK)

Just some additional info.

After I got the phone (Aug 2010) I applied a lag fix (OCLF) and the phone stopped working about 2 weeks later. I did a hard reset and the phone worked. Since that hard reset I only rooted the phone (no lagfix however I did install OCLF just to root). Then I updated to JK4 (with Kies, official release). 1 week later many apps started to force close. Hard reset and it works again but it seems to be much more laggy than before the last hard reset.

EDIT: Now completely dead.

Will do, doing as of now! ;)

From now, the constants are:

-the built date of August and before. I have yet to see one with Manif. date of 10.09

-Don't last longuer than 2 weeks (well... the update was available since 2 weeks...I can't remember when I did mine, but it's before the official release (I'll check my posts to see) and it still works

Please take a long and exhaustive note on this, because this thread is not about anything else than gathering data to try to get a constant from and for users, per instance; Manif. date 10.08 and less and won't last 2 weeks.

according to the current stats

it will seems to imply that phones made after 10.09 and later 10.10, 10.11 should be safe from the deadful internal SD power damage? :)

i'm thinking of buying a new phone, if this problem is prevalent to the I9000M

but if newer builds are safe, then i'll stick with this model.
