But that's the HD2. Does updating the radio on the G2 while rooted remove S-ON/OFF toggling? I'm unsure whether or not to give this a try because I don't want to get stuck on a a radio that may lock my root access.
[G2 and Desire Z General] skiptomylou11:
Been having that problem for the past few days. I mostly tether at work, and it worked flawlessly, but now with this happening it's almost pointless to tether. The signal loss is too constant.
[G2 and Desire Z General] g_grey:
after a month of this happening at my home i finally turned edge on and found that it works on edge, or after i get off the tower nearest to my home. i usually use my phone for internet at home since i can't afford real internet but without data my phone was rendered useless. then today it finally started working for a bit so hopefully i can play online without any huge issues
[G2 and Desire Z General] DJAeroX26:
No solutions yet :/ just temp fixes...
[G2 and Desire Z General] hypersonicx:
The solution is to call T Mobile and let them know the situation. I been calling them for going on 2 or 3 weeks now. They will put you through the service ticket situation where they will contact the engineers to look at the towers in your area.

I currently on my 3rd service ticket and after giving them my address and zip code the engineers did report that there is a problem with a Tower in my area and they are working on a fix. But if the fix isnt reselved soon they said them selves that I might be eligible to have my 4 lines closed and all ETF fees waived to I can switch to another company because there network and devices arent working as they should.

The data connection is not suppose to freeze up. When my connection freeze I have to enable / disable airplane mode to get my 3g connection back. This happened on (MyTouch 3G - MyTouch Slide - Nexus One - Sam Vibrant - HD2 - now G2) + I tried multiple sim cards so its definetly a TMOBILE error and not customer error LOL.

P.S. The connection is perfect on EDGE but with todays phones Im not about to settle for Edge F* that LOL.

Il keep this thread up to date on whats going on with my situation and if it gets fixed or not.

Current location is Goodlettsville TN which is about 15miles from the music capitol Nashville TN
[G2 and Desire Z General] DJAeroX26:
Yea...I figured I would have to do that eventually. Sucks...oh well. It's nice that they offered all that for you, even though I still probably wouldn't change to any other company anytime soon. Thanks for your reply. I live in Elizabeth, NJ btw... and I usually have a problem connecting to the data network in the mall nearby too.
[G2 and Desire Z General] hypersonicx:
Yeah it does suck lol. I too have the problem at my parents house which is like 10 miles away from my apartment.

The tech keep saying there a problem in my area and thats about it. Ima stay on them though and keep on getting credits on my account for the data portion LOL.

In the mean time I did end up getting a Comcast 12Mbit connection so I just use WiFi at home and 3G when im on the go.

hi everyone

i have a problem!! :((

i have a galaxy s with android 2.2. i tried lagfix ( OCLF ) on my galaxy and everything was ok

then i reset my phone to factory setting!! anfter that i found that lagfix has gone!! i tried to install it again! but it says : you already have lagftix installed in " system/bin/playlogos1"

i deleted playlogos1 manually using root explorer!! and then i tried OCLF ! i rebooted my phone and after that .... my phone does not boot anymore! after samsung logo, it is only a black screen! i can not do anything! and sometimes it vibrates !!

i tied recovery mode by : " volume up + home + power" but i can not!! and even i can not access download mode!!

what should i do????????????

please somebody help me

i tried "kies" but it does not recognize my phone :((

please help me

sorry for bad english
[Galaxy S I9000 General] racerboy3801:
The horrors of oclf ;p

You'll have to make yourself a download mode jig. Its essentially 301k of resistors soldiered onto a micro usb connector, this forces the phone into d/l mode.

Just search for download mode jig in general.

Stay away from oclf mate, 2000+ quadrant scores are worth less then a working phone.

Ps: your english is fine :)

Because people are too lazy to flash a kernel and use volume controls to select a lagfix

No, its a gsm thing, it basically gives you a bit of a higher dl and ul, no one has stated a big difference tho.

From what I read its a different frequency to clear up the over load so ppl will stop complaining of data issues...

HSDPA is like EVDO, basic 3G, a little faster though.

heres a link to the new meizu m9 rom, could some one start porting this?

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J3ZZ3AA2

thanks!
[Droid 2 General] stupidpopmediareference:
I don't think that's very likely to happen. You'll notice that most of the "ported" ROMs here came from the DX; same manufacturer, incredibly similar hardware so there's less fighting and testing to be done. There hasn't been a fully functional and stable AOSP ROM to hit yet (that I've found) much less a successful port from another, very dissimilar handset.
[Droid 2 General] ljbaumer:
Actually there is a fully stable AOSP rom right now, it was just released.

In terms of porting this rom over. If you give me a link to some screenshots and/or a thread about this rom I can take a look at it and see if I would even want to port it over.

If you just give me a download where I don't know what I am downloading I am not even going to start looking at it.

[Droid 2 General] UrbanBounca:
It was taken down shortly after due to a recovery issue. I'll probably try it out, but it's going to be hard to get me off my Fission addiction.
[Droid 2 General] stupidpopmediareference:
Tried it. Clunky, no cellular radio activation, and got into a boot loop at reboot. That's why cvpcs released it in beta. His twitter and site both listed it as buggy.

Once one is released I'll happily eat my words on the AOSP statement but a port at this point is highly unlikely. THank Moto and their damned eFuse chip. I'd LOVE to see more ROMs of any origin but we're a long way away, still, from even having a good AOSP base to build a kitchen from.

Once someone releases a good, stable, everyday, AOSP ROM for the D2 then I think it's likely that we'll see ports from other devices start popping up using said ROMs as the basis for said ports. I'm seriously hoping to see the awesome results from blackdroid, cvpcs, and (if he gets back into it) Matt4542 toward this end.
[Droid 2 General] mikeyinid:
i can pretty much guarentee you gotta be a super dev to port that rom
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyCr15:
So I was using a cooked MCR ROM, but wanted to factory reset to start fresh. I went into the bootloader and selected factory reset and now it loops the boot animation over and over.

I've tried different ROM's, I've re-partitioned the SD (at one point I was seeing errors about not being able to access Apps2SD) and each ROM will boot up, take a long while on the first animation and then loop itself afterwards.

This isn't a normal boot loop, it doesn't actually reboot, just loop the animation.

Any ideas?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fkofilee:
well yes you will need to flash your rom again, can you actually access your clockwork recovery menu by holding down the volume key when the system boots up ?

(fYI, it may come up with the with fastboot screen first)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fkofilee:
oooo sorry forgot to mention, youll need to go into the recovery menu and also format the following by selecting mounts and storage before you reflash

- Data

- Cache

- Boot

- System

then once you reflash you should have it sorted, some boot animations do loop on first start up, if it takes longer then say 10 mins then you know its done, unfortunately there is no sure way to tell.

According to Google, there is no minimum requirement. Devices which are capable of running froyo can easily run gingerbread. Gingerbread is not a memory hog OS. its like a service pack of android 2.2.

[General Questions and Answers] striken:
Hi,

I upgraded my Samsung I9000, from Éclair 2.1 to Froyo 2.2, with Odin, (everything is working fine), :cool: but...

My question is;

If I do a Hardware Reset does the phone downgrades to is factory default, in this case "Éclair 2.1", or it stays with the last OS installed?

Does anyone knows what happens?? :confused:

Cheers,

Striken
[General Questions and Answers] SeaborneClink:
A hard reset is different than a master reset. Hard reset only entails removing the battery from the device.

To answer your question, once flashed with a ROM, performing a MASTER reset, will bring the phone back to "factory" defaults, i.e. just like it was the very first time you booted it AFTER installing the custom ROM.

Hope that helps.
[General Questions and Answers] striken:
Thanks Man,

You are talking in a Master Reset, how exactly do you do that?

When I did a software reset it erases everything on the phone, contacts, apps I installed, everything except what belongs to the Rom I installed. Also the phone stayed like when was installed for the first time...

From what I've read an Hard reset puts the phone to is factory defaults, but when I did a soft reset it also stayed "brand new", like factory default.

My question is: does a hard reset erases the rom I installed and puts my phone like it was before I upgraded with Froyo 2.2?

I never heard anything regarding a "Master Reset", can you explain me more? :confused:

Thanks,

Striken
[General Questions and Answers] Kops:

Bookmarked for later, thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] striken:
Hi Kops,

If you also learn anything about it please post it here ok?

Thanks ;)
[General Questions and Answers] Kops:
I believe you can find the stock firmware for your phone (2.1 or 2.2) and use ODIN to flash to that. By doing so, you will revert to 100% stock settings, no root, and no proof that you've flashed your phone at all.

In my opinion, this is your best bet for a "full reset".
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
When you flash a new firmware, the firmware is permanently installed. Performing a factory reset will NOT revert your phone to its older version. Only a reflash will do this.

Factory reset only resets things that are stored in user data space. Such as your contacts, custom settings and any apps that you have installed (not counting those that Samsung/Google have put into the system)

So there you have it. You can safely perform that reset if you want.
[General Questions and Answers] striken:
Thanks for the help guys,

So, there's no difference between a soft and hard reset? Or is the factory reset an hard reset?

When I did a factory reset it erases everything and restored the phone to is default settings.

So, the only way to put the phone back like it was when I purchased is installing Eclair 2.1 again...

Thanks,
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
The only way to get 2.1 back is by reinstalling an official samsung firmware. Yes. If you have an official samsung firmware though, the phone is as it should be.

A soft boot is generally where you send the device a reboot command or turn it off and back on. A hard boot to reiterate generally happens after the battery is removed and reinstalled. This is not what is known as a factory reset and will not modify anything.

A factory reset formats the userdata and cache partitions and resets all settings to default including deleting any apps that were not installed on the factory firmware.

I hope this has answered your question.
[General Questions and Answers] striken:
It did, thanks.

The only problem is that I never found an official Samsung firmware, in this case the Eclair 2.1 from Vodafone. :(

If you know any site that have that Rom please share it :D

I would like to have it so I can restore the phone in an urgency...

Don't want to be a pain, but just one more thing if you or anybody knows...

When I both my phone it came with Eclair 2.1 from Vodafone like I said.

You presented me with a page that have the 2.1 stock Rom from Vodafone, but, originally the phone had a Vodafone startup animated logo.

Do you know if the rom in that page has that animation startup?

Thanks,

P.S. One more thing, when I said that I didn't find anything in that site I was mistaken, it was not that website but samfirmware.com website.

Hi,

I'm unable to install sideloaded APKs. This is what I did:

1. Ran the 'NookColor Tools'; checked 'Allow Non-Market Apps'; and rebooted.

2. Copied the apk to SD card (in a new folder My Files > 'Apps').

3. Installed Astro File Manager from the Market.

4. Navigated to the location of the APK; clicked on it; selected 'Open App Manager'.

5. Clicked 'Install'.

Says 'Install Blocked - Installation of downloaded apks is not supported'

I must be doing something wrong, any help would be great!

I had similar issues after using autonooter from 12/25. After playing with nook tools I gave up unsuccessfully. After a reboot I noticed it was working.

You shouldn't, I've rebooted a few times and have had no problems.

Here's what i've done to get around this.

Appmonster on my phone. Download and backup the app on my phone.

copy the app onto nook somehow, i use dropbox.

then i use rootexplorer to copy, change from r/o to r/w, paste the apk, and then install it.

So far working well, trillian, amazon, and google reader. Not sure about the potential of installing versions of apps that could brick or screw up the nook.
[Nook Color General] Ipepper:
Laptop not Recognizing Nook after installing ADB

I tried the boot over and over, but it did not work. So I followed the instructions on installing SDK and ADB and was able to install applications. This meant replacing the Nook Driver. I was not able to install the files via the USB cable, but used ADB wireless instead.

Now I can no longer see the Nook when I connect it by USB to my laptop, running Windows 7. I used to see the Nook as my J drive and the SD Card as the K.

I plugged it into my Desktop and and able to see both.

I am guessing this has something to do with the Driver on the Laptop (which I replaced following the instructions in the video). Is there a way that I can get my laptop to see the Nook and the SD card again without losing the ability to install files?

Thanks
