Just got to a mac to give this a shot. Doesn't mount for me either! Shows a CD image with some of the pc installer files but not the directory of the phone itself. Very interesting. Upon unmounting, got a "The disk you inserted was no readable by this computer." message.

[Fascinate General] jbirdsf:
Same issues here! I am hoping one of you AWESOME developer types can help us Mac users out on this one. I have made multiple inquiries to both Verizon and Samsung regarding this issue. Surprise, surprise...they each point the finger at the other! I pretty much lost all hope when the last Verizon rep I spoke to suggested I purchase an external SD card reader to transfer files...gulp! :mad:
[Fascinate General] Djgang:
Same problem !!!

Doesn't work with my Mac. Also tried Factory Reset.. still doesn't work....

Looks like I am not the only one ....

Also, the update left a weird status icon on the top next to my 3g icon in the status bar.

Please help..

Thanks,

[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
Hey, I think I may know what the problem is, even though I don't have a Mac to test. I'm running stock ROM with DL09 OTA, and I discovered that when trying to mount the phone in mass storage mode, it wouldn't. It just showed up as a CD drive that contained an installer for the latest samsung drivers, and an app that opens IE to a page to download some kind of Verizon VCast media manager app. In other words, Verizon is trying to save you from yourself by forcing you to use their crap media manager software, instead of accessing the contents of your SD card directly.

I then realized that I hadn't de-bloated by removing all the Verizon apps, so I froze the VCast and VZNav apps (and Bing, and a few others) in Titanium Backup, and after that, Windows will now recognize and mount the SD card as expected.

I suspect that the funky CD mode thing is what is messing up mounting it on your Mac, so would suggest that you freeze those apps on your phone (you can also go in with ADB or Root Explorer and rename the .apk files, if you don't have Titanium Pro), and reboot the phone, and then try mounting it again.
[Fascinate General] critofur:
Can anyone confirm that this works? And particularly: which app needs to be stopped/"frozen"/removed for the fix.

I had searched a half dozen forums and not found a solution, that you found a fix is great news.

Not being able to access the SD card as a USB flash storage device is absolutely intolerable - I would say it's a serious flaw with DL09 and Verizon should "recall" the update or QUICKLY release a patch that "un breaks" it. The fact that they're probably doing this on purpose is sickening and infuriating.
[Fascinate General] ivorycruncher:
I later confirmed that that doesn't fully fix the problem. The issue is in the kernel itself. Adrynalyne's 1/18 or later kernels fix the problem, at least for Windows, not sure about Mac, but there's a good chance it will. Try that and see what happens.

I don't think this is already integrated but is there any way to make your phone stop playing mp3s after a certain period of time? My only get about how to do this is use another app like tasker or something.
[Droid 2 Global General] zse45tgb:
There are some apps in the Market to handle this. SleepTimer and MusicSleep come to mind. They don't work with all players on all versions of Android, though. Definitely check the comments and look for reviews before buying one.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxmonsterx:
After searching and having a headache for 5+ hours I wanted to make an easy how to for noobs running ubuntu 10.10.

I found a ton of information on a ton of sites, and after a lot of cross post referencing I finally figured it all out, so I will lay this out in as simple a way possible so nobody has to have the same issues I had.

Pre-requisites: latest android sdk, ubuntu 10.10, general knowlege of linux

Step 1. Obtaining and making fastboot/adb executable

Download THIS package containing the fastboot binary and the 70-android.rules file

extract files anywhere (remember for later use)

copy fastboot binary to your /android-sdk-linux_86/tools/ folder

open terminal and execute

chmod +x <path to>/android-sdk-linux_86/tools/fastboot
chmod +x <path to>/android-sdk-linux_86/platform-tools/adb

Step 2. Adding your tools and platform tools directories to the path

in teminal execute

gedit .bashrc

at the end of the file insert

# enable android tools directories in path
export PATH=${PATH}:~<path to>/android-sdk-linux_86/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:~<path to>/android-sdk-linux_86/platform-tools

Step 3. Getting ubuntu to recognize your phone in adb and fastboot

in terminal execute

sudo cp <path to>/70-android.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules
sudo chmod a+rx /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules
sudo reboot

Step 4. Make sure it works

after reboot open terminal and execute

adb devices

as long as it returns a device with HTXXXXXXXXXX you should be golden
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] janne_oksanen:
There's a typo in the Android SDK paths in your message. You're missing the x in _x86. Was wondering why adb wasn't in my path after I copy pasted that into my .bashrc.

Here's the correct forms.

chmod +x <path to>/android-sdk-linux_x86/tools/fastboot
chmod +x <path to>/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools/adb

# enable android tools directories in path
export PATH=${PATH}:~<path to>/android-sdk-linux_x86/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:~<path to>/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools

Another thing that puzzled me was that there appears to be a hard coded username in the udev rules file. Should that be edited too?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blas4me:
Try this method

Dude, I put these instructions together sometime in 2010, and should be easy enough to follow. Following all those other instructions used to have me trying for hours to set up adb & fastboot, so when I got a little more familiar with Linux I made my own, with root permissions, so you don't have to sudo anything. You can have adb & fastboot up and running in 5 minutes, if you follow the instructions step by step. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=820122

Hello

I've just got my hands on a Samsung Omnia Windows Phone 7.

When I press the Camera button / icon a black screen loads with the camera settings such as zoom, settings icon, video etc but the screen stays black for about 15 seconds then goes back to the main menu.

Is this a common bug? I've tried to search but didn't have much luck.

Any ideas on what I can do?

Thanks!

hi,

I would suggest phone restart, if it does not help hard reset, if that does not help than send it back and ask for repair or maybe new phone.. I dont have this problem with my omnia 7.. Or maybe flash new firmware? But i think its too risky if you still have warranty..
[Desire Themes and Apps] lick_the_fish:
Hi All

I have the most recent version of Oxygen which includes a "theme picker" app.

Similar to the one found in the HD ROM's it gives the opportunity to change the entire system theme, without flashing a zip. Which is good news :)

However, I have been trawling the internet trying to figure out how to create the .apk needed to create my own themes, failing miserably.

Could someone with the required knowledge post a tutorial maybe? Or a link to where the info is so that I can do my own research?

Thanks
[Desire Themes and Apps] str355:
i've not installed the test rom so cant check, but does it come with any theme.apk's pre-installed?

You will never flash android to wm and otherwise if you not kernel developer of HTC (as ex.).

Please

refrain from posting if you don't know what you're talking about. Both Android and WP7 can replace WM6.5 on the phone, and ARE NOT emulated. Even with Android running from the SD card it IS NOT emulated!!!

The best way to learn is.... to learn! If you're spoon-fed all the answers then you'll just never stop asking. Just take your time reading, and don't rush into flashing anything until you're comfortable with what you're doing.

all the instructions are like do this and that.. or radio is for buttons and .... but come on... i relay started this thread to point out that there is not one goood all in one explanation that will explain all aspects... and for any one to gather all this info and put everythin in cronolgical order that makes sense.. he would allready have to know a lot (or have some expirience with this) so i think it is imposible for a newbie to grasp all this from just looking at threads...so many of them and every thread going in some other direction :)

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
I think it is time to say truth. LG540 cannot be recovered in original state, or at least bootloader. The first time you use fastboot, bootloader is changed and there is no way to back it to original state. For that reason you cannot flash LG540 with original KDZ from LG.

And that is fact that no one wont tell to you. All says that you got recovery mode, fastboot mode, but dont tell you that phone cannot be back to original state.

Now I know that, and it is to late for me.

Yes , you can changed roms via recovery menu, and that is ok, but all that roms are modded.

so be beware...

happy flashing
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] m1st3r1:
Hmm.. i can flash my first non-modded baltic rom (v20b_00.kdz) with my kdz updater.. in curiosity, i try the fastboot (camera+power) and recovery button but nothing happen.

So i guess it back to normal
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fishears:
@Pepi74 Pretty sure you're wrong there, Bud.

When I first tried to put clockwork on my 2.1, I flashed a CIS 2.1 ROM that had fastboot, then I flashed clockwork from fastboot and that went great.

Then I decided to flash a stock Carphone Warehouse 2.1 ROM thinking I'd still have clockwork and fastboot - I DID NOT, THEY WERE BOTH ERASED BY THE NEW STOCK ROM

If you want to go back to stock then grab a stock ROM, put your phone into DOWNLOAD MODE and flash it with KDZ_UPDATER (if you had 2.2.1 on then wipe all data/chache from clockwork first) otherwise do a factory reset after you flash.

Try to make sure you know what you're talking about BEFORE you post.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
I try that 10 times, and always have same result: after blue animation, LG stuck.

As I say, I can flash with fastboot modded ROM via KDZ, but cannot use original KDZ and flash it.

So I try many times before made this post to public :(
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fishears:
What application are you using to flash? There's no blue animation on the app you should be using.

Have another go with this app http://www.mediafire.com/?rj8dlhhp9ihm7ro

Put your phone in Download Mode (no battery, sd or sim - then hold vol - and plug in to PC). You see "Download Mode" on phone screen. Set app up as in picture and choose kdz file then Launch Software Update. Have a cup of tea. Profit.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
I use KDZ updater just like you.

Blue animation is animation that show when android boot up: and after that comes white LG logo, and phone stuck.

All of tutorial I use says that KDZ updater must be set as

TYPE 3GQCT

on your picture is

TYPE CDMA

(so I need that you verify this settings)

Also phone mode is recommended as DIAG, and you set up CS_EMERGENCY

( so verify again that your setting is right)

On mediafire file you send me two files

boot.img and update zip.

How to flash this? ( via AMON RA) ?

Waiting for your answer , thanks for info!

P.S From where you get this settings? -links?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fishears:
Sorry, I posted the wrong link - it's just to the KDZ_Updater but you have it already:

http://www.mediafire.com/?3hd4ao113lx8gq4

The phone should flash using this method even if you bricked it. I don't have the source of this method (maybe somewhere in the FAQ @modaco) but it saved my ass a few times and now it's the ONLY method I'll use to flash anything other than 2.2.1

You can either try it or not - I won't take offence ;)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Open KDZ_FW_UPD as administrator by choosing "Run as administrator" in the right-click menu. Once it's open, set the type to "CDMA" and the mode to "DIAG". The people over at ******** will often tell you to set it to "3gqct" and "EMERGENCY MODE", ignore this as it will not work properly.

They say this way, so I will try it in CDMA mode :)

Try and retry :(

Yes, first time I pass this procedure got grey ANDROID logo, I think: that is that. But LG 540 stuck on that animation :(

So I give up.

Thanks one more time for you time.
