I have run into another issue. I can not mount my phone to computer. I think this is happening because of me rooting my phone. I was able to root the phone successfully. But somewhere along the way something happened and I can't mount my phone to my pc. This is as if my pc is not reading/recognizing the phone when plugged in. However, my phone is reading its memory and sd card perfectly.

When I plug the phone to my pc:

With USB Debugging off... I dont even get a notification in the slide down menu asking me to either mount/unmount.

With USB Debugging on... I do get the option in slidedown menu to mount my phone. At the same time the computer shows a pop up message asking me to install driver software for Samsung_Android. In the meantime , I press mount sd card which by the way is still not recognized by the computer.

I dont have the driver for samsung_android to install on the computer.

This thread here describes how I rooted my phone. I thought this background info might be helpful in solving the problem.

Does anyone know a potential fix for this situation.

Thanks.
[Vibrant General] Lordjish:
When this happened to me having it" ask what to do" when connected may have solved the issue. I went through this just yesterday. You also might re-boot your phone and computer a few times...nothing like that can hurt. Until someone who actually knows something finds this thread : P

**bump... someone gotta know the solution
[Vibrant General] oka1:
Reading your post is a little confusing. If you are saying you cannot "mount" the phone the term Mount is replaced with "connect usb storage" in the pull down. If yours is saying mount, then your rooting process may have not worked. It is hard to tell based on how you wrote this up. Use the one-click rooting you can find all you need INCLUDING the Samsung computer drivers (32 or 64bit) @ unlockr.com along with a nice youtube video showing the whole process beginning to end.

Additional thoughts:

If you are really jacked you can always go to the bible (in the top of this general forum) and search for the "ALL in One" zip to flash back to stock...etc. The All in One has the stock kernel, the .pit (used for mapping) the 32 bit driver/64 bit driver for the computer and Odin all in one Zip. You should have this in your computer folder named (unbrick tools:p) either way you should get all this if you are going to be customizing the phone, along with the Eugene's froyo that does not brick rom. This rom is a lifesaver should you flash in a way where the format will not recognize the stock format. You can flash this 1st then stock right after and that ALWAYS gets you back to stock.

In the future, when you are trying to describe what is going on try to be careful with terminology it is important not to use terms loosely otherwise we are just guessing on how to help......... hope this helps
[Vibrant General] sLiKK:
Thanks for your thoughts. It seemed as if my computer was lacking the drivers for samsung vibrant so I installed them from here

and now I can connect my phone to the pc and its working fine. I thought I had downloaded and installed the drivers before when I downloaded on the big download button on the top and installed some fake software from advertisement.
[Vibrant General] epakrat75:
If you ever flash a 2.2 rom and experience the problem again with the drivers already installed, this might fix it...

Hi guys,

I know that Galaxy S was the first mobile phone to be certified as WiFi Direct, and it got this certification about a couple of months ago.

Any news on when we will get a software a update for this to actually be functional??

[Nexus One General] Wiggz:
Hi Guys,

As the topic says really. Are we blessed with a Nexus One port of Gingerbread yet or are we still having SDK cooked ROMs and ripped roms from Nexus S?
[Nexus One General] tr.slate:
A port is a cooked ripped rom. No, afaik no one has gotten the official ota yet. That being said there are many fine ports from which to choose in the dev section.
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
Several, check the dev section. There was one SDK ripped rom for a few days before the AOSP drop, but everything there is all AOSP based now. There are even two very early builds of CyanogenMod 7 (Gingerbread) to try out.
[Nexus One General] Wiggz:
Does AOSP = OTA (Official) ? i'm guessing not
[Nexus One General] solidmac:
The SDK is not something that is taken from the Nexus S its straight up pure Android OS untouched ready to be touched by devs like the ones here and also by Hardware manufactures like HTC, Moto, Samsung etc. ready to be slapped with sense ui and other ugly skins
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
You mean AOSP, not SDK :)
[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
Correction, where he says SDK, he means AOSP. AOSP is the Android Open Source Project. It is what all builds of Android for any phone is made from, even the upcoming Nexus OTA is built from it.

But more specifically, the Nexus OTA will include some closed source drivers that will help with some issue AOSP has. But right now you can install an AOSP build and have Gingerbread the way it is supposed to be. Just with possibly some issues, but the sounds of it most of it works great.

When the OTA arrives, developers will pull the closed source drivers from it and can then use them in their own AOSP builds and then you can consider them complete.
[Nexus One General] Wiggz:
Understood....so for the full effect with no issues (or as Google intended for Nexus :) ) then OTA is needed for Chefs to start cooking properly. Cheers guys

So, I'm writing a new book. One thing I hate to do is write it by hand and then convert it back into a digital form. So I'm looking forward to writing it onto my phone (Desire) , because I carry it around everywhere and you never know when inspiration might fill you up. Any good apps ? Currently I'm using colornote (An awesome App!) But something else with some extra stuff like with additional formatting options, features to insert images, etc. would be great. Could use some help from you guys. Thanks.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] smart2smart:
Few question

What is the difference between flashing from zip / restoring a nand backup / using kdz.

I have gone through all the posts and have taken a Nand backup after flashing the custom recovery. However this part am still confused about.

I know I need to use the kdz if I need to change the firmware ( 10b to 10c) and also there are cases of people bricking their device by using the kdz updater.

I know that I can upgrade to a different ROM by flashing the zip provided as part of the custom ROMs, however can I do a Nand restore of my original backup ? Would it matter if the version is different eg 10b of my backup and probably a 10e of the custom ROM ?

If the Nand backup restore / zip is much more stable then why are people still using the kdz to change the version.

Any answers would be really appreciated.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
I have a question too: How do you restore nandroid backup from ADB ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] nk_blu:
Flashing from ZIP is done in custom recovery, usually done for a fresh install of new ROMs.

Restoring a nand backup...I'm not sure if this is "nand" back up...but in custom recovery menu, you can create a backup image of your current phone/rom. I guess it's kind of like a restore point where u can go back to if **** hits the fan.

KDZ Updater, I believe is a tool where you can flash/install "official" roms. At least from what I know of LG Optimus One, official ROM packages are in .kdz package. Where as for example, for HTC, official ROM packages are know as "RUU" installers.

I think if you stick to your carrier's official KDZ ROM packages, there are minimal chance of bricking your phone. I was lucky to install one of Australian KDZ on my Telus Optimus One and got away with it.

You can do a (nand) restore of your original back up. To do this, root your phone, flash the Custom Recovery (follow one of the stickied posts in this thread), and create a backup. When you restore, your ROM version will be whatever the backup ROM version is. So if you backed up v10b, and you update to v10e, and then you restore your back up, you'll revert to v10b.

As I mentioned above, I think KDZ are for flashing official ROMs. It's the tool that LG uses I believe, so probably that's why all their official ROMs are in KDZ. People are using KDZ to downgrade/switch ROM versions because some of ROM versions, such as v10e, can't be rooted using conventional tools.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
So which is the command for nandroid restore in ADB ? Thank you.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
Nand restore/backup is not ADB tool. You have to boot into recovery mode (if you have custom recovery, just turn off phone, press volume down+home and keep preset power on button. Hold volume spek+home till custom recovery menu didn't appeare.)

Warning: If you will not have installed custom recovery properly, you will do only hard reset!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sarfaraz1989:
nanddroid backup (i think can be restored using nandwrite linux utility try sudo apt-get install mtd-utils) ..NAndroid is more Like(HArd Drive Cloning) whereas FLashINg USING KDZ is like upgrading Your PC's BIOS system...U know what i mean ??? U screw up FlASHING phone is dead until fixed by the manufacturer..HOwever for same model i cud use my friends nandroid backup on my phone..Its like CLONING a OS
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Ianis G. Vasilev:
If using NANDroid restore from ADB you should navigate to the folder of your backup and run "nandroid-mobile.sh restore". The rest is explained above.

And by the way, sarfaraz1989, the only way to brick your Optimus One is to delete all the "/" directory, as even if you mess up the kernel, you can enter "Emergency Mode" and restore from a KDZ file. Second - NANDroid creates a binary image of the "system", "data", "boot", "cache", and optionally ".android-secure" directories. Third - flashing ROM updates is not the same as flashing a KDZ file - KDZ is LG's restoration archive containing the original ROM, recovery, kernel, etc... and most ROM updates contain updates to one or several system directories.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sarfaraz1989:
@Ianis DOesn't FLASHING rewrite the EEPROM chip on the phone??? Doesn't it repartition the ROm into boot,system,cache etc...??? And does't cloning (Dd) create "binary images" What imeant by FLASHING was using the KDZ file only... u missunderstood the post or mayb i didnt put it correctly
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kenblat:
it's weird... i'm successfully backup (indeed four kind of nand back up available @ recovery) my source for backup was void#echo + latest fixed multitouch kernel, it just work beautiful before.

Some issue that require flash back to origin 2.2 rom using KDZ, then root + install recovery but any kind of restore still return LG LOGO and hang. (all 4 kind of backup same result)... already clear /davik-cache + /cache even try to clear /data and /ext as well but still the LG logo.

P/S: i'm using Recovery version 1.2. and my card already partition as 0 for swap + 512MB for ext4 that working beautiful @ void rom before.

Any solution? I can redo all the step by step for reaching the same VOID rom but without restore fully function like that... it waste lot of time for "boring HOME WORK"

Many Thanks and Best Regards

[Droid X General] EXQEX9:
So, recently my Droid X has been going through random brief periods of INTENSE slow downs. I downloaded "Watchdog" to see what was up, and I was surprised to find that a "linux process" called "init" very consistantly is using around 70% cpu, peaking at 85% at times. Is this normal? What is this process? Is it the cause of the slowness, or is there something else i can check? Any advice would help. Even a nudge in the right direction would be awesome. I'm totally stock, and while I know rooting and going blur-less is an option, it is one that i will not be perusing. My rom shouldnt be the cause, considering that the symptom started abruptly, after months of working very well. Thank you in advance folks :)
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
Are u running a custom ROM? Init is the moto kernal essentially (someone expand and correct if I'm wrong). Normally if you haven't modified things, unless you are using something that realty uses system resources it shouldn't be that high
[Droid X General] EXQEX9:
Thanks for replying.

Im totally stock. I have no idea what can be causing it...the last thing I did to my phone was delete apps that I dont use too often, then this started. And ideas on how to fixit?
[Droid X General] citanes-26:
Looks like you might need to sbf. It will put it back to stock. Check to see what bootloader you have and system version
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
How did u delete apps? Also, give this a try... Connect your phone to your pc in charge only mode... Then type this command:

Adb shell ps

Then copy the output to here. Try to capture this when it seems the phone is slow. May help give insight to anything else that may be slowing things down

This is rather off topic to OP's post but....

I'm assuming you got the armband so you can run while listening to music, etc with it???

Did anyone notice any hesitation in playing music (skipping) while the phone is in motion?

I have a bluetooth headset I use (blueant T1) to stream A2DP music from MT4G to headset and I get ALOT of skipping when MT4G is getting knocked around in my backpack...

sorry for the OT question...

[myTouch 4G Accessories] splat matt:
The units with the SO screen use a micro sd card to store music and won't skip. The units with the SH screens store the music on nano optical media that is manually operated by a cute little mini monkey. If you shake the mini monkey he can get a bit pissy and skip your tunes.

[myTouch 4G Accessories] el_smurfo:
I have made armbands myself for my last two phones (MT3G, MT4G). All you need is the elastic from some old armband (I use one from my ancient MP3 player) and one of the $2 silicone cases from ebay/amazon, etc. Take an x-acto and cut two slits in the back of the silicone skin for the elastic band to pass through, then you just slide the phone into the silicone skin and attach to your arm. Looks much better than the generic armbands, works better without the touchscreen cover and only costs a few bucks.

By flashing to this firmware I would have fully unbranded ROM. I guess :)
