having problems with my vibrant and or odin. The issue with my phone is when i turn it on im in recovery mode it think. My options are reboot system now, reinstall packages, delete all user data, and delet cache data. I select reboot and then the screen goes black then it shows the vibrant logo then goes black again then the vibrant logo shows up again then it goes right back to the recovery mode again. I have done the reinstall packages but only showes that it cant open no such files. Now i did have a rom on here for a while i think it was the Nero rom. I then got stupid and tried to flash back to stock. That did not work. Ive tried Odin but keep getting a wierd pop up message right when i click start. Cant remeber what the message is but i think thats where the problem lies. Ive even tried it on my wifes laptop and get the same pop up. Thats where i think that it the phone and not Odin. Please help.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mulcahyd:
Hey try this to get into download mode.

Take out battery. Open up odin. Connect usb to phone and pc. Press up and down volume buttons firmly with one hand, reinsert battery with second hand. Odin should recognize.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Jay2487:
Had this problem too, samsung says hold down volume and power but that doesnt work, what ALWAYS works for me is to hold both volume buttons down and plug in the mini usb. Itll skip the vibrant screen and go straight to the yellow triangle and download mode. Learned that on youtube :D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] spacecasespiff:
I can get it into download mode and odin does reconize it. I place the pit and pat files and then hit start and that where im getting the error message. Now I unzip the pit file but where I think its not right is the pat file I don't unzip that one is that correct. The youtube vid that I watched the pat file was a rar file (I think ) and what I have is tar file. Sorry if im confusing you im new to this.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
Edit after seeing reply. Dont unzip anything. The pit file should just have the pit extension. And in the pda section should have the rom .tar in it. What rom are you trying to flash?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] spacecasespiff:
Sorry its the pda file not pad. It does show up as a com port. Its windows 7.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
I would still try opening odin by right clicking and running as administrator. Which rom are you using and what error do you get?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ionic7:
Man this is a pretty cool theme/app
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] spacecasespiff:
Really dude
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] spacecasespiff:
i was using Nero rom and now just trying to get back to stock. I did do a back up before putting on a new rom but the back up is where i started to see the recovery screen. The message is

a big red circle with and x and c:\user\nikki\decktop\odin_v1.0exe. And i know that this was not the place for my question but i never get any responses when i put my question on the other threads. If its a big problem i can repost on a defferent tread. This is my phone and it does not work because of what i did and now i have no phone so im a little bit mad. Thanks for any help im getting.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
Sounds like an error with windows. Do you have any firewalls that would prevent programs from accessing usb ports? Also I would upgrade to a newer version of odin. 1.0 was very buggy. Check the bible sticky in the dev section for links.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] spacecasespiff:
This is a pic of what's going on

Sorry they did not come out very clear once I put them on here
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] wildklymr:
Ok so not firewall. Try a newer version of odin. Theres also an open source program called heimdall that supposedly does the same job, though ive never used it.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] spacecasespiff:
I downloaded a newer version of odin and downloaded the pda file again and swithched han cables and it seems to be working. Thank you for the help

[Android Themes] XDRDX:
I was wondering if there was anyone that could help me theme the standard CarDock.apk from the Droid X so that no matter what theme is applied to the rom it doesn't change the background of the icons from the standard dark grey/black.

Whenever I apply the black bar themes (GingerBread) it changes the backgrounds to white. Yet with the ChevyNo1 SSX 1.1 rom it stays dark yet any other rom, i.e. Apex 1.3.1, it changes to white.
[Captivate General] Radukk:
Nothing new, just refresh design (even worse and iphonisher) and offical HDMI out support.

Hoppin service is similar to Media Hub + apple's seamless playback between devices. When you sync your phone to PC or HDTV, they continue playing media that phone did.

FYI, M110S was initial Galaxy S, and M130L was CDMA + OneNand (like fascinate)

[Venue Pro General] gauravr88:
I believe this is normal for capacitive screens... its also on other screens like the focus... please correct me if im wrong :)
[Venue Pro General] drleospaceman:
I noticed the same exact thing on a Nokia N8 and HTC Desire, but not on some other capacitive amoled devices like the Cowon S9. So I'd say it's specific to one or more display manufacturers (eg Samsung), and not necessarily all capacitive screens.
[Venue Pro General] blitzkrieg7710:
I think tht those are the co-ordinates designed on the screen for capturing the response... I have an HD2 and have seen same pattern on th screen as well. Hope this helps :)

Thanks folks for the response. I was little worried at first when i saw that. Now all is well.
[Streak 5 General] Egypt1337:
i am running dj_steves 1.5.1 and i was wondering about the following:

Is it possible:

to have the old feature from 1.6 when you press on the battery icon it gives you several toggles?

to get rid of the dropdown status bar (it is really annoying)

not make the icons adjust to the "snap" placement on the screen?
[Streak 5 General] Egypt1337:
also is it possible to add more icons to the screen than the standard?
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
The answer for the first question (Black bar across top with drop down bar) is no. The framework has been changed in froyo so without the source code for dell's homescreen UI in 1.6 and 2.1, it can't be ported.

To add more icons to the screen, you're gonna have to use a different home screen launcher. With Dj_Steve's StreakDroid, ADW.Launcher and Launcher Pro are pre-installed.

I use ADW.Launcher and highly recommend it, you just need 30-45 min to sit down and go through all the settings to get it to how you want it.

To switch your default home screen, easiest way is to download "Home Switcher for Froyo" from the market.

Welcome to the forum, a few hints.

Rather than posting another post to follow up on your previous one (if no one has replied yet) please use the edit button.

2nd your question has been asked many times here in XDA and a handful of other forums, so please in the future, search with several keywords before you post.

Good Luck and feel free to ask more questions if you can't find the answer to them.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] shivenjuneja:
First of all, Happy New Year Guys... Hope This year would bring loads of happiness in your life.

i got some surprise for you.

The new SE firmware rooted.

Guys the new firmware for x10 mini pro i.e 2.0.2.a.0.24 prerooted and xrecovery installed...

For Guys who have already updated to that firmware:

In order to install this firmware, you need to install xrecovery first.

Also if you have already flashed with 2.0.2.A.0.24 through SEUS, please downgrade!

Requirements:

DOWNLOAD>>X10 mini pro flasher

DOWNLOAD>>2.0.2.A.0.24PACK.zip

Tested On My X10 Mini Pro:

Instructions:

1. Download and unpack system.zip. It contains 2 files: update.zip and firmware folder

2. Copy update.zip to SD Card

3. Copy firmware folder inside the flasher's folder.

4. Boot into xRecovery and install update.zip

5. Open flasher and press "Flash" tab

6. Choose "firmware" and flasher will show "Searching for Xperia..."

7. Plug the phone on usb

8. Choose "Reboot" option on recovery and right after the screen goes blank, keep the "back" button pressed until the green light is on.

If you don't succeed at first, press home and on/off button while connected on usb and simultaneusly "back" button.

Make sure you understand the installation process before you try!

How To Downgrade:

1. Use any firmware from here.

2. Flash your mini with X10 mini pro flasher.

3. Then after the downgrade use SuperOneClick for root.

4. Install zdzihu's xrecovery mod.

5. Then Go to Instructions above and read the next step.

If u Like to Help Me :

Just curious

I have also 2.0.A.0.504 what is technically different between 2.0.2.A.0.2.

I have rooted 2.0.2.A.0.504 and everything work's fine so is there a need to change?

Still a noob have patience!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donetus:
^^ the perfomance of the phone is much better with the update, just a little .. :)

@TS

do i need to run a root application of this? or everything's smooth sailing after installing the update?

also, do i have to do the xrecovery thing? can i skip that part and do the FlasherTool instead?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] shivenjuneja:
U need to do all the things as update.zip contains all files for root and the flasher files necessary to flash as it includer kernel , user data and all.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] shivenjuneja:
The diff. I can see is of speed and battery consumption. And changes in framework. Else is in sony ericsson apps which I dont use.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] pratyush_gamer:
is it for X10 mini too..??????
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donetus:

how'd you install the xrecovery? i've manually installed it but nothing's happening on my part .. :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ctalcant:
ok for u20a?

This generic fw will for both u20i and u20a? Want to confirm I won't disable my 3g when i flash this. Thanks in advance!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10bravia:
by this do you mean that it takes a longer time to drain the battery?

can it last more days before needing a recharge?

what apps sped up? how did you measure the speed?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] shivenjuneja:
@x10bravia firstly the apps on the phone took more time to launch nw its more faster and the phone is less laggy.... and earlier when i put my wifi on and the battery consumption in 8-10 hrs. is 30-40 and now it is 10-20 ....

@donetus if u flash your phone with this firmware u will have your xrecovery working as it is made from xrecovery x10 mini pro tool..

@ctalcant i dont if this will work on u20a or not.... but i'll let you know in some time if this isnt working then i would also make one for u20a u jst have to give me the update files from you seus

@pratyush_gamer no bro its only for x10 mini pro

I'm having trouble after this step:

5. Open flasher and press "Flash" tab

6. Choose "2.0.2.A.0.24FlasherFiles" and flasher will show "Searching for Xperia..."

When I open the x10flasher.jar file and click on Flash it only gives me a "firmware" option and when I click OK.

Copy 2.0.2.A.0.24 FlasherFiles folder inside the flasher's folder.

Which folder is that inside the FlashToolRelease folder? I copied it straight into that folder and copied the frimware folder from the System.zip
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] baunegaard:
you need to copy the folder with the firmware files, in to the flasherfolder, and not the files themself.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] baunegaard:

In Xrecovery select reboot, then hold back. Whilst you have folder in the flasher, device on usb, and flasher searching for device. Read the guide again. Its all there.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] teapea:
Maybe I'm being stupid but the instructions don't make any sense.

I have generic 2.0.A.0.504 with no xRecovery installed.

1) the "system.zip" contains update.zip, but then a folder called "firmware" NOT "2.0.2.A.0.24FlasherFiles"

2) where on the SD card do I copy the update.zip to? Just the root or any specific folder?

3) when it says Copy FlasherFiles folder inside the flasher's folder = what does this mean? What is the flasher folder? Is this on my PC or on my SD card?

4) how do I boot into xRecovery - I don't have this installed? As I have not already updated do I need xRecovery installed?

Can you flesh out the instructions a bit more - making the assumptions that we don't have xRecovery installed and have never used these tools before. I'm pretty good at this stuff usually but this has confused the hell out of me!
