Been rooting and tweaking for a little now, still an amateur. I've downloaded the required items from adrynalyne's DJ05 rom, kernel, radio thread and seem to be ready to move forward, but i want to go with geekniks stupid fast kernel. Do i need to follow adrynalyne's steps before moving on with the stupidfast kernel i pick out? Also how reliable is the automatic voodoo uninstaller from the HOWTO thread? asking about voodoo assuming its on my stock rooted fascinate. any insight would be appreciated.

[Fascinate General] Bawb3:
I'm not sure if you need to install the kernel in the dj05 thread first or not, but you can definitely use a stupidfast dj05 kernel after because that's what I'm running!

Well how much different is it to install a radio?

what are all the steps?

please dont miss any steps.

i really dont want to brick my phone or ruin it in any way.

If i install the latest radio and everything,does the rom have to be 3.70?

If its not what will happen? if im on 3.30 or less with the new radios and what not,will i have any problems?

And is there anything wrong with the new radios?

i hear quite a few people complaining about it?

what will all these updates do for me?(updating the radio etc.)

I could use a lot of help.

Hi guys.

Since the last update 2.2.1 I've got a strange issue on my desire HD.

On my HTC agenda, I enabled the facebook calendar which allows me to see my friend s upcoming birthdays. However those facebook birthday events appear correctly on 1st day i activate it. But the day after all the facebook events appear twice. And the day after 3 times, and then 4.........

Only way to solve it is to delete my facebook for htc sense account, and to set it up again. But on day 2 it starts again........

Am I the only one ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remixtech:
Same problem here ! Mon poto !

Someone has a fix ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorjino2000:
Did you try to delete cash of Calendar app:

Settings-applications-manage applications-(tab) Running-Calendar-clear data

After cleaning - do a synchronization with Google, HTC, Facebook, etc.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billydroid:
After flashing the unofficial Cm7 builds I can no longer buys apps. It gives me the "retry or cancel" option like I have no network connection.

I have flashed back to froyo roms and even put my sim in my wife's vibrant. Still I get the same issue.

Any ideas, even if the sound dumb, are greatly appreciated. I'm totally stuck with this.

Thanks in advance
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billydroid:
i figured out the market thing! I went to https://checkout.google.com and it showed i had no credit cards on record, weird. I put my card back in and all my other cards, including the tmo account, showed up. Then i went to the market and blam, i purchased ADW EX!:)
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Alright, so after permantely bricking my phone twice and frustrated with Samsung's/Sprint's lack of support in FroYo, I've decided I'm going to be switching over to the Evo.

One question, if I complain to them that there is a defect in their system since the same problem has happened twice within a month, do you think they will let me switch over to the Evo, and if so, how much would that cost?

Edit: Also, could I use my SD card/battery for this phone?
[Epic 4G General] Vertig0:
from what I know, you have to exchange your phone 3 times for the same reason.
[Epic 4G General] wettems35:
good for u. at least some of the epic users are standing up and doing something about their bs. ima wait it out like a wuss :(
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Then I'll lie and say this was the third time.

If it wasn't in their records, I'm sure I could just say something like the one you gave me immediately was defective so this technically is my third phone.

I'm honestly done with Samsung.
[Epic 4G General] D3luSi0n4L:
Honestly I think you'll regret it when froyo gets released on the Epic =/ but its your choice!

Good luck,

D3luSi0n4L
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Lol, I probably will. The thing is though, with the evo, they get a lot more updates at least. I don't need the keyboard. I've seen the resolution; not that bad, truthfully. Besides, the Sense UI looks really nice.

I just feel like Sprint and HTC notice the Evo a lot more in its flaws and are constantly trying to make it better.

I just don't want to be with Samsung anymore.

So does anyone know if it's three times or not?! If it is, I'll literally just break the next one.
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
Why not just walk into a store in your leisure, or call in to C.S and get the right info from the horse's mouth?

Or better still try and unbrick your Epic (might be possible if you expand on what "permanently bricked" it), sell in on C.L and buy an Evo.
[Epic 4G General] Beezer80:
Don't be ghetto. You broke your phone. Own up to it. It you want to switch, then switch. Vote with your buying power.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Well bad news on that.

Apparently, there's no possible way I can switch the phone.

Unless...well, if I were to buy an Evo online, do you think they could activate it for me with the same number and everything even though I'm not eligible for an upgrade?
[Epic 4G General] Beezer80:
Yes. You should be able to activate it yourself.
[Epic 4G General] Toast95135:
What the hell did you do? I'm a noob ad I've modded my Epic a lot and never had a problem.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Installed the Nebula Rom w/ EXT4.

I didn't know the Nebula ROM at the ext4 kernal baked in it, so after doing all the steps, I flashed the kernal and I think that's what happened to it.

I don't care though. I understand it's my fault but Samsung just pisses me off anyway.

And the fact that the Evo is not even a phone listed for trading the Epic in after a certain time is just crazy.

Two best phones on Sprint, and you can't even trade one for another.
[Epic 4G General] Beezer80:
It probably happened at band camp. One time....
[Epic 4G General] blutenchi:
I have to ask the obvious question. Did you try to use Odin to take it back to stock. Not saying it can't happen, but it's pretty damn hard to brick your phone.

The newer DK28 ROM's are using the EXT4 setup, RFS (or whatever it's called) is Samsungs, so if you are going to flash a newer ROM with the EXT4, then you will have to set your EPIC up for it. There are threads floating around for that, just search and read.

I myself am not happy with Samsungs support, but that's why I come here, we have some awesome devs that like our hardware! And our hardware is awesome!
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Yes, I have tried. It CAN go into download mode, but the USB is unable to recognize it on three pcs and even a mac (running Heimdall, not Odin of course)

Unfortunately, I think I've learned my lesson and that I should just be patient with FroYo coming...it will come this month (at the end, most likely) I really hope, if not...oh well. I'm just going to have to be patient and satisfied with what I have. I am not going to make another mistake. Bringing it again would just cause even more suspicion anyway.
[Epic 4G General] irule9000:
same problem here. Eventually it was recoginized as a samsung modem for some reason and the comport was recognized. trying using different cable and usb ports.
[Epic 4G General] ydoucare:
How do you permanently brick a phone twice?
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Its hard to do I bet. Then again this guy basically admitted he has defrauded and was going to attempt to defraud a company on a public forum, so intelligence or lack there of might be a part of it.

I say HAS defrauded because I seriously doubt he told Sprint that he bricked his phone while flashing custom roms and that they replaced it.
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
If you really want to get rid of it then fine.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SPH-D700#Odin_Stock_Flashing

Follow that and that will fix it. After that run the all in one 2.5.5 root and recovery and you'll be good to go. Use odin. I bought the overpriced micro usb cable at sprint and I've never had a problem with it on any phone. Wait until the official froyo comes out and download the tar from here or the zip clockworkmod flash update then root it. That's what I would/am doing. Yes I hate the epic but I don't have the money to get another evo right now. All my luck a new superphone will be released and I'll be stuck with the old stuff.

A few things I didn't like about the evo was the screen wasn't very bright, the battery life is bad, and the wifi/4g/3g reception sucks ass compared to the epic. The epic definitely hears the towers and wifi better.
[Epic 4G General] TWO515TY:
On the Windows computers, did you make sure to have the Galaxy S drivers installed? You can't flash via Odin without installing the Galaxy S drivers - after that it should flash like clockwork...like a clockworkmod lol.
[Epic 4G General] Master K:
I have been flashing Smartphones for many years and I must say that the Samsung phones are some of the hardest to truly brick in my experience.

Now I am not trying to slam you but clearly you jumped into the deep end without knowing what you were doing. I recently upgraded from a Hero and I read these forums for almost a month before I touched anything. Then when my phone showed up I had read a lot of how-to's and read about many others mistakes.

Now if you want to I can tell you it is really easy to fix your phone. I am sure of it. I had a similar problem with pc's recognizing it as you have. It turned out to be a bunch of conflicting drivers. I wound up booting into Windows safe mode, removing all the modem and phone devices and the USB ports too. Then when I rebooted I patiently let it recognize the USB ports, then I installed the Samsung Drivers. and only after all that was done. I plugged the original samsung cable into a USB port directly on the PC (not a hub or monitor port) and everything has worked like a dream since. I know this sounds like a lot of work but it was nothing compared to the headache of things not working. When all was said and done it took me 1/2 an hour to get it working and it has never given me trouble since. Also, I do not use that USB port for anything but the phone now. That might be overkill but I have enough ports that it is better safe than sorry.

Once all that was done I installed a Deodexed Rom based of Stock dk28. no theme or fancy stuff. It runs like a dream. I have added a battery mod and the AOSP lockscreen and I am so happy with this phone. It is so much faster than my Hero and it just works. No crashes or anything. I wonder what they still are going to fix. I find dk28 to be a really stable rom.

Just my 2 cents.
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
When you get the Evo you don't even need to call Sprint to activate. You can do it yourself online on sprint.com.

You already have a compatible plan.
[Epic 4G General] awrnsmn:
YOU

messed your phone up twice and think Sprint should bail you out......grow up and find a way to fix it then either flash a good 2.2 rom or stick with stock until official comes out.....or by an evo YOURSELF. You knew the Epic had 2.1 and Samsung and Sprint are always slow rolling out updates.......so.......
[Epic 4G General] bomix:
No go on the battery, if you had a HTC HERO or Touch Pro 2, then you could. otherwise no. Then again, if you return the Epic They are going to want back both SD Card and battery.
[Epic 4G General] Ranger093:
If you are somehow bricking your samsung Epic than you are going to brick your evo just by touching it. The evo doesn't have an ODIN tool haha.
[Epic 4G General] kenvan19:
I was under the impression that there was a HTC program that was easier to use for the Hero and I had assumed that it would be available for the Evo. Also, the truth of Odin is that its not really a very good tool, very very finnicky.
[Epic 4G General] JOLTnPEST:
Have you tried odin3 1.61? It seems a lot more stable.
[Epic 4G General] blutenchi:
Forgot to ask this question earlier, but are you using the stock usb cable? If so, don't, it's crap and only good for charging. I know everyone's setup is different, but you shouldn't be having too many problems with your PC recognizing your phone if you have the drivers installed (32 or 64 bit, which ever OS you're using) and a good quality USB cable. Also try to use a different PC, then you might be able to isolate the problem a little better, whether it's your handset, your pc hardware, or even your software files.
[Epic 4G General] kenvan19:
I have but it still seems very unstable. Sometimes it works on some machines and sometimes it doesn't. As I said, I was under the impression that there was a (relatively) easy way to restore a Hero to stock but I could be wrong.
[Epic 4G General] tuttjs:
Just my two cents: I had a htc (touch pro 2) from sprint. I very rarely got updates. I was about 2 update cycles bhind on my htc. So sprint pays no favor to htc. Secondly, I hated the htc's sense of whatever its called. These 2 factors pushed me never to buy an htc again. Oh, did I mention that I went through 3 htc phones dying on me after a couple of months? I hope the evo works out better or you
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
To be honest, I am using the stock cable.

I am going to try one last time with the Epic, and then instead of replacing it every time because of my stupidity (and making sprint more suspicious), I will take measures into my own hands. I haven't really been able to try a whole lot of PC's due to the fact my whole family has Mac's.

So to fix this, if my Epic gets bricked next time, I will attempt getting Windows Software and using bootcamp to install it on to my mac. I assume that the drivers may respond better on a mac anyway (even though it's booting into windows bootcamp).

I'll just have to see. Making mistakes is the only way I can learn from them.

I understand why people having harsh replies about the OP; I was pissed. I understand that my attitude was uncalled for and anything I do to my phone is my responsibility; I should not have to rely on sprint to fix everything.

I am sorry.
[Epic 4G General] JOLTnPEST:
I use bootcamp and windows7. The first time took a few minutes to configure but after that i've never had a problem even with stock usb cord
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Thanks for the feedback.

Although, my stock usb cord probably isn't reliable anyway (the USB bent a bit; it will only read the phone if I hold it in a certain position or keep it on a slant)

I know, lol. I break everything...
[Epic 4G General] kenvan19:
Oh wonderful! I was going to try this soon but was worried it might not work very well!
[G2 and Desire Z General] rohit275:
Earlier today, some water inadvertently spilled on the back of my G2, it wasn't a lot but I did turn off the phone, remove the battery, tried to dry it, etc. Phone seemed to be working fine (probably shouldn't have turned it back on in retrospect) but I soon noticed I had no service, removed the SIM, dried a little more, re-inserted, it came back, only to die again soon. Haven't tried it in a while, I currently don't have access to another card to try or another device to try my card in. When I get home, I do have an extra sim that came with my G2 as well as my old G1.

I think what I'm going to do is try to use my SIM with the G1 and see if anything happens, if it works then there's definitely an issue with my G2 sim reader, if not, then I can just try my new sim with the G2 and hopefully that will work.

Do you guys have any advice? My G2 is a little over a week old (~10 days)...I know T-Mobile warranty does not cover damage. However, it does not really look like there's any damage to the phone (literally everything else works perfectly). Would it be possible they might just consider it a malfunction and replace the device? I think in the worst case, I could probably buy insurance (still under 14 days) and get it repaired...

My main question is, should I try out the new SIM in the G2, or wait another day or so? This has been stressing me out for the last few hours....

**-** Also thank our buddy R64 in this post below for his work on this theme **-**
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] R64:
Do it yourself guide for theme editing

Because of all the user requests for different colour icons, battery icons and other things it is impossible to make all those changes. So I'll give a guide on how to edit the theme to your liking. Once you know how to do it it's pretty easy.

A few rules to keep you from getting a bad result or a bootloop:

Always have a working backup theme if your edit causes a bootloop

The new image must always have the exact same name as the old one

Unless you know what it does don't go about switching xml files

Don't edit images with .9 at the end of the name with normal software. It wil look distorted on the phone. It needs aditional editing.

Step 1

When you downloaded a theme open it. Go to system>framework in there find framework-res.apk. move this apk to your dekstop or to a folder. Now open the apk with winrar, 7zip or whatever can open it. you will now see this:

Step 2

Extract the res folder and leave the rest. Once the res folder is extracted you open it and will see this:

Step 3

The anim folder controls all the animations you see. If you want other animations replace the files in this folder with the ones you want

The drawable-hdpi-v4 has all the images in it. Like the icons for extended menu and battery are in here along with the rest. If you look at the picture and name you can figure out what most of them do.

Replace the images with the ones you want.

Step 4

When you are done open the framework-res.apk you have on your desktop or folder from step 1. Delete the res folder in there

Step 5

Now drag your edited res folder in there. You'll get a message like this, press ok

Step 6

Now put your newly edited framework-res.apk back in the theme zip. Put it in sytem>framework and you'll get this message. Press copy and replace

Step 7

Flash your edited theme zip and it is done.

A lot of the images for the notification area are controlled bij twframework-res.apk. If you use the same steps as above you can edit that to.

could you also try whether switching lockscreens work ?

(make a backup before you test)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] D3StRoY:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] D3StRoY:
Good news for the people installing / updating to Darky's v8.0

I just used the no-wipe version and i can confirm the theme works great.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Neo-ST:
Works on Darky's v8 too... great theme btw.

Just to have more launcherpro icons... :D

EDIT: he was faster :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] nanu_x2:
Wow!!!!!!!!

Amazing work thanks bro... :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Mr Woolf:
Beautiful!!!!

Lockscreen button is green though, rest of theme is blue - possibly a hangover from my previous theme.

Excellent work, thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] D3StRoY:
Haha, yea just a little bit ;) Thanks!

Thank you nanu!

Could be possible, installed a new v8.0 update and my theme here just a moment ago, no issues so far so i guess its a hangover :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] R64:
I think he means the lock icon in the AOSP slider. If so then you can theme that icon or not if you think green looks nice.

It is not possible to get theme hangovers with images that are in the framework folder. It replaces it. You can get theme hangovers if they other theme had themed some apps like the dailer. That app will still have the old style unless themed by a new theme.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Angeliusus:
Great work :)

They're any animation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tomaz22:
Impressive stuff,

Mind showing us the boot animation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] MAMBO04:
Impressive indeed! A few things i'd change:

The tick boxes. There are sharper ones like the Gingerbread ones but in blue to match your theme, which would look much better.

The top bar for Samsung Apps, maybe make it a darker blue when pressed or black all round?

Also when you keep the home button pressed, the background hasn't been themed, maybe making that look more themed?

That's all, still really good and works perfectly on Darky's v8, so do the 4 lockscreens.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] layziebone:
I've never used a theme before. Do i need to rename the file to update.zip? What about the addons, do they need to be renamed to update.zip too? And i assume with installing these, need select update.zip in recovery
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] morphjk:
Your running Darky's so you have clockwork so you don't have to rename it. Just choose the option to select a zip from sd card.

The addons from memory are installed whilst the phone is running
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] D3StRoY:
Yes, something i hate too atm, will fix it today if i find some spare time!

Downloads are 1.12, but named 1.1 because i forgot to rename them :x

So hold on tight for the fixes and renaming! :) and I'll add some of the points and bugs/issues to the list for a new update, especially for the notification buttons some would like to light up!
