Thank you so much for your super quick replies. does that mean I can reroot it and redo this revert back to stock method? Thank you so much again. My end goal is to go back to stock form.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
You should be able to because your hboot is unlockable... Like I said though, try to stay away from the one clicks and auto roots... Root it via adb manually, that way you know that everything worked. After your rooted check out sparks 2.3.3 ruu-esque... Here is the link:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1145711

This will get you to stock but you will still have your cwm recovery and still be s-off (of course after you re-root)... Read the whole thread before diving into this. Sparks put specific instructions up that have to be followed to a T... Good luck man, hope I could help you out!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ky0nkyon:
Is there one that works with the 1.08 radio? I think the reason this doesn't work for me is because my radio is the 1.08. I already got s-on so I don't know how to bring it back. I am try to re-root to change the radio back to 1.07, but the visionary part of the rooting process seems to not work for me. is there a method around this, or what am I supposed to do? Can someone show me which thread to follow? Searching doesn't seem to like me today. Thanks for your help in advance.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
The link I posted is for stock 2.3.3 its got the new radios but if you are s-on it sounds to me like you are stuck... Do you still have root access? This is just odd... If you flash the ruu I posted you should have gb and the new radios. You also won't lose root if you still have it... I gotta think about this some more. Did you send a developer a p.m.?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ky0nkyon:
I do not know of any devs, so I'm quite lost. I don't think I have root because it's s-on? When I go adb to do adb shell, it says error: device no found. This is why I can't root or check to see if I have it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ky0nkyon:
OK, I got the program to run, but now I get a new error, ERROR [140]: Bootloader version error.

The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again. What do I do in this case? Thanks for the help everyone.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sparksco:
You don't wait very long for a reasponse do you? Check the other thread you posted the same post on. When I can I will make the update bypass the bootloader check.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ky0nkyon:
Sorry, good sir. I was in a bind cause I had to fix this by this weekend for my girlfriend. I fixed it, the problem was that it was temprooted so I just had to skip the visionary portion of the rooting process. I finally got s-off, switched radio to 1.07, and did the RUU. I'm really thankful for all the input and help everyone brought. Again, thanks for the help and leads!

this program locked my phone and now it cant be ROOTED !!

Just in case you are messing around and you mess something up!

this program locked my phone and now it cant be ROOTED !! UNREAL NOW WHEN I GO INTO THE HBOOT (LOADER) it SAYS S-ON !!! I`M SCREWED !:mad:
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
Suffolk, you are stock 2.2 which IS rootable. 2.3 isn't rootable. Take a breath.

SPEEDY XE SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.0001

RADIO-1.08.00.0506

Stuck in boot loop after trying to go back to stock. Tried all kinds of roms and stuck in boot loop regardless.

What do?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
This is for old radios and froyo... You have new hboot and radios... Try the 2.3.3 ruu using your pc... You will lose root and be bone stock until root exploit is achieved...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ky0nkyon:
for me, I had the exact configuration you have. I had s-on with cyanmod and superuser still available. I also had 1.08 radio. I restored an older version (for me, cyanmod 7.0.3.), then did the rooting process minus the visionary step. it gave me s-off again, which allowed me to switch back to 1.07 radio and then use this RUU. it seems that having s-on with 1.08 radio and 93hboot leaves us temprooted. if you don't have a backup to use, then I don't know what you can do. if you can go back, then hope this helps

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizzy123:
I bought a galaxy s on ebay, was like new a week old.

Found it to be very fast and amazing but the headphone port seems to be having problems. only one side of the headphones work for some reason and if i twist the headphone jack inside the port and hold it at a certain place occasionally both work.

Have tested in 4 different set of earphones which are fully working and I get the same problem. If I unroot my phone and ask the seller for the original reciept will I be able to get the phone repaired under warranty?

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jersr:
My usb port didnt work anymore after a week i got this phone. It was sent back rooted and had unofficial firmware. They replaced the port for free however. You need the receipt though..

The samsung employee told me they didn't care about unofficial software. The procedure to make everything default is a 10 sec job :)

You replacement will be under factory warranty, just like mine
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fylim:
I had same problem. Brought it to SC and they found out headset was faulty. Replaced headset. Headset/accessories only 6 months warranty. So go get it checked out. They didn't even check the phone. So I won't worry too much about custom roms unless you really have an issue with the phone itself.

God bless.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizzy123:
Thanks for the replies. Found out it was due to the fact that the gel case I have on my phone prevented the headphone Jack going all the way into the port. Stupid mistake I know but at least I know its now sorted.

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
It looks like that simple flash via official LG tool from Windows cannot revert to stock Android 2.1 from 2.2.1. LG540 stuck after first animation.

I guest that is (was) because recovery image was written somewhere in rom, and only few roms can be used in that combination ( fastboot euro 2.1)

Can somebody tell to me: how to remove recovery.img , reset LG to orginal state so Windows flash can flash stock Android 2.1. ( gold card) ?

Thanks for any reply.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fishears:
if you still have clockwork installed then you can just reflash the backup of 2.1 that we were all told to make before we installed 2.2.1 :P
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Yes, that is one solution, but

I DONT WONT

fastboot, or clockwork moded firmwares. I wont original LG software.

And I wont original flash procedure from LG ( from windows)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
first: recover your 2.1 (with fastboot, recovery and etc. )

second: then flash phone with original lg ROM
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Not working :( I tried that combination several times
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
i'll upload my recovery from 2.1 and try that. (about in 10 minutes)

Ps. have you tryed to flash with kdz updater too ?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Waiting for your recovery :)

Yes, the whole point is that after you put Clockwork moded 2.1 there is no chance to make flash with KDZ uploader ( and that is what I need)

I dont know what that clockrecovery mode write to memory of LG , but it is obivious that KDZ cannot erase that. And for that reason after successful flash from KDZ uploader LG540 is stuck after animation. But as soon I re-flashed LG with clockwork recovery it starts to work again. So reason must be in that rom.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
hmm. it takes more than 10 minute :S shows about...hour (220mb)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
220MB?

Hm, normal roms have size about 140 MB, you have monster :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
i know that. i have several apps installed on it. when you dont want them. then wipe from clockworkmod to factory reset. :)

but. i've just tryed to recover my backup from 2.2.1 (cm6.1.1) to this 2.1 and it booted up as normal.

edit: upload compleated : http://www.multiupload.com/86OZ7RA1W5
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
You say you try to recover your backup from 2.2.1 to 2.1. How you do that?

Via KDZ tool?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
no, via clockworkmod ...

i was saying , that the recover from 2.2.1 to 2.1 worked with this backup
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
read my third post :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
yes, i agree that. flash this recovery then try to flash original 20B with kdz updater

i'm updateing right now my phone to original 2.1 with lg mobile support tool
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Your backup has sd part and I dont have sd partition on card: so does it will work?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
how i've just downgraded from 2.2.1 to 2.1:

1) recovered my backup from 2.1 (yes i know that it's a big recovery, because i have several apps installed on it, but it doesn't matter, you can do wipe/factory reset if you want)

http://www.multiupload.com/86OZ7RA1W5

2)now connected my phone to pc and installed lg mobile support tool(this gived me drivers too ;) ) (from lg site)

3)now i've "upgraded" my phone via "lg mobile support tool"

4) and now, i'm on official 2.1 rom
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
yeah. that's ok when appears error with sd-ext
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Just now I use same technuiqe: hope will work.

It looks like that KDZ updater is less powerfull then suport tool, but I have still to wait and see if Updater tool will finish flashing

DIDNOT WORK :(
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] hani93:
hmm. that's interesting. for me worked.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] pepi74:
Now I will try to use your backup: so need to instal fastboot and clockwork recovery rom: then I will wipe all, use yours backup: and then follow your instruction.

Does you flash Blackquatrx ROM ( or something like that)?

It look like that one of those installation erase original boot image, and that will be whole problem, to revert original boot.img from untouched LG540 2.1
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mrinehart93:
Hey there. I'm quite new to the LG Optimus S (not the Hero, though), and I'm having some troubles getting my ROM I've made to flash. The issue is that I get a "Syntax error" in the update-script... even though it should be working. Can someone see if there is anything wrong with my ROM that's causing that? I've been trying to get it to work for 3 hours now and have exhausted all my solutions.

[G1 Android Development] Bayton:
Hi,

I've tried searching but can only find topics relating to dalvik-cache, this is not what I'm looking for.

I need a way of making sure /cache is never wiped. Is there a script or a hack to force Android to never wipe this directory?

I'm running CM6.1

Thank you!
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Question, Im getting alot of "com.google.process.gapps" force closes on my EVO since I restored a few apps thru Titanium Backup. I rooted about a week ago and never had any issues with this. The only apps that I restored was angry birds and a to-do-list app along with all the data that came with the apps. I have tried cleaning caches and restarting the phone and nothing seems to work... what would you suggest? I seen a few threads when i searched - but they were for the G1 and the Captivate, nothing for the EVO... any help would be appriciated...

TIA

[EVO 4G General] rob97ss:
Did u flash any Rom or Theme??
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
nope, I rooted and am still using the stock ROM... I was going to flash Frost or some thing, but I want to make sure this doesnt carry over to the flashed ROM, or if there is a fix...I would prefere to fix it...

I am also getting a force close on the phone process.... when some one calls me and I ignore the call it force closes the process for the phone as well...
[EVO 4G General] cruise350:
Try reinstalling the gapps.apk. One of them must of been corrupted by the data you restored.
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
do you know where I can find that at? I have never heard of it...
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Also the thing that is confusing, is I can still access my market, maps, latitude, people, gmail... etc

If the apk or files were corrupted, I wouldnt be able to access those apps... i will try to reinstall the apk, but I would like to know what I did to make this error happen, so I know not to do it again...
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
one thing I think it could have been was there were two "people" files in my Titanium Back up... One was up near the top it said "People 1.00" and then there was one near the bottom with a line thru it that said "People 1.1.1" or some thing to that effect... I deleted the one at the bottom with the line thru it cause I thought I didnt need it any more... could this be wahts up with this error?

I can still access People thru the People widget, but some times it takes abnormally longer to load my list of contacts...

I can also still access Market, Gmail, Maps, Latitude...

I just clciked on Talk and it seems to be the problem, every time I click Talk it brings up the force close issue...

should I just reinstall the Talk.apk?

I also get "com.android.phone" force close when I decline a call...

when I went into my ROM manager, I clicked the "fix permissions" and it says "error occurred while attempting to run privlaged commands"

Any info on any of this would be great...
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Anyone out there

Sent from my EVO while tethered into the Matrix thru Wifi...
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Okay well I have googled/searched XDA 'til I was green in the face... I still can't figure out how to fix this issue?

Just answer me this, If I do an entire factory reset - will I loose root?

I have wiped the cache thru recovery, Should I try wiping the delvic-cache also, before I factory reset to see if that works??

I can not find any where to download the "gapps.apk" anywhere, I found this one thread that told me to install these in this order:

1. TalkProvider.apk

2. GTalkService.apk

3. Talk.apk

but none of them worked... they wouldnt even install... it just kept saying install failed...so I found another thread with the 2.2 gtalk and it installed...but Im still getting the error...

I have been getting several other errors, like htc.bgp force close (or some thing like that) as well as com.android.phone force close...

So should I just do a NAND restore or should I do a factory reset instead? OR should I run the RUU and start over to root...??

I am at wits end here and am not getting anywhere with searching...

TIA
[EVO 4G General] Biggest Fro:
I would start with a NAND restore. (Hopefully you have one from before the problem started)

If that doesn't fix it, do a factory reset.

If that doesn't fix it, Factory reset and instal a custom ROM (Sprint Lovers is very close to stock if that's what you like)

I don't think running an RUU is necessary. Once you obtain full Root, you should be able to fix any problem with .apk's or programs on the phone.
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Thanks for the input, I was beginning to think I was invisible... lol... I will try that and see what happens...
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Well, I went ahead and tried one more thing before I did what you said to do and I think it worked... I went into my EVO while in Disk Drive mode and I cut my entire Titanium Backup folder out of the phone and copied it onto my Desk top. Then I went into my OLD EVO files from the end of the year and I copied the latest folder into my phone. I then went to Charge only, clicked TB and refreshed the app list... Then I was left with a ton of apps that were not installed on my phone. I then went thru each one and restored the ones that were still installed and deleted the ones that were not... (except for the stock apps that came with the phone), so far so good... I will test it more tonight and see whats up, have not gotten any force closes since I finished...

One thing I would like to know tho - where can I get the stock dialer.apk

Some how it got deleted off my new EVO and when I try to load up one of the htc.dialer.apk from my old EVO - the new one does not recognize it... I am currently useing "dialer one" from the market - but I would prefere to make my NAND back up of the Official stock ROM with all the stock apps...any ideas?

EDIT: Okay, fixed the com.google.process.apps issue but did not fix the other force closes... I guess I will have to try the steps above - and worse case - ill just run the RUU and start all over...
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
I had this problem once and it was related to a widget I downloaded that retrieved missed calls. Don't know if that helps.
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
But thats the thing - I didnt download anything - I restored two apps, one was opera mini with data and the other was spareparts... then I lost my htc dialer - so I installed Dialer one from the market... I dunno Im just gonna have to do the stpes above and if they dont work - Ill just wipe and run RUU and reroot... no biggie...
[EVO 4G General] JayStation3:
Okay I did a NAND restore... then I went thru and set up ALL my apps and settings again and then I did a fresh NAND Backup with clockwork first AND then Amon_Ra... all seemed well except, after I did the Clockwork Backup... I was getting "com.smithmicro.DM has stopped unexpectedly" so searched and read a little and it seemed to have some thing to do with the PRL/Profile updater... so i went into the settings and opened the app manager and cleared the "data" in com.smithmicro.DM and then I restarted the phone and that seemed to fix it... thanks for all the help...

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
So, I think I broke my captivate. No, scratch that, I KNOW I broke my captivate. I think it's just software bricked but I'm not sure. Here's what's going on:

I rooted my captivate, and installed CWM. I flashed Serendipity 2.0 and that was fine. It booted, and I downloaded ROM Manager and went to partition the SD card. It rebooted, showed the AT&T screen, and froze on a black screen with white letters that says:

"GALAXY S

GT-I9000

SAMSUNG"

Holding down any combination of the volume buttons and turning on the phone does not go into recovery. It goes to the same screen as above.

The only way (via buttons) that i can get into download mode is to pull the battery and cable, put the battery back, hold down both volume buttons, and plug in the USB. However, when in download mode, windows says: "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it."

On the other hand, if I plug USB in while it's frozen at the "GALAXY S GT-I9000" screen, windows and Odin DO recognize it. When I click start in odin, it gets stuck at "File Analysis..." though.

I would really appreciate any help getting this captivate running again. What can I do here?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Desk top or lap top, have you tried different ports, different drivers. You can recovery from where you are. Where did you get the drivers from? What ports are you using
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickysa2000:
Are you able to Open Odin, connect USB and check if Odin recognizes ur device?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
I got the drivers from the 32-bit link here. I've tried both on a windows desktop and a macbook pro using VMWare Fusion for virtualization. I've tried all the USB ports, including the ones on the back of the tower

I am able to open Odin. Odin (and Windows, for that matter) only recognizes my device when it's frozen at that black screen. I attached a picture of it. It does not recognize my device when it's in download mode
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Try drivers from here

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SGH-I897ZKAATT

Do not install save files to desktop. When your phone is in dl mode and plugged into the rear port of your pc click on the error message. Direct the computer to the driver files you just downloaded. This has worked for some
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
OK, got the new drivers and saved them to my desktop.

It's windows XP, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to point XP at those drivers. It pulls up the "Hardware Update Wizard" but it won't use the files. There are 3 .inf files, which is what the wizard wants. If I try to use any of them, it says: "The specified location does not contain information about your hardware"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
Ok, I don't remember if Serendipity installs with debugging enabled, but when the phone is in the state above and recognized by Windows can you send adb commands to the phone? Particulary 'adb reboot recovery'.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
I don't have the android SDK installed on that computer. Give me a minute and I'll find out
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
So, the phone does not respond to adb. "adb devices" returns a blank line. "adb reboot recovery" returns "error: device not found." I get the same result whether it's in download mode or frozen on the GALAXY S splash screen

Device manager shows the phone as "SAMSUNG Android USB Composite Device" when it's frozen at that screen, but as "Unknown Device" when it's in download mode.

How can I force XP to use specific drivers?

Edit: I just uninstalled the drivers and let windows find them on its own. It found and installed:

Driver Provider: SAMSUNG Electronics Co., Ltd.

Driver Date: 5/12/2010

Driver Version: 5.2.0.4

Is that the right driver version?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Its the right driver if odin recognizes you
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
even though odin (and windows) doesn't recognize the phone in download mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
No, odin needs to see your phone.

What cord are you using, is it oem
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
it's the cable that came with the phone.

I don't think the cable's the problem though, because both odin and windows DO recognize the phone in its frozen state... i guess i could be wrong about that
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
Just a shot in the dark, but if inserting the battery with USB+vol-up-down gets into download mode, how about inserting the battery while the volume buttons + power are pressed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Do you know what bulks you are on? Located under battery, I am 1008
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scubabuddha:
yeah, that also gets it into download mode. It doesn't change how windows reacts to it though... "Unknown Device"

Right underneath the serial number? Mine's 1009... why?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I am not sure if you mentioned this, but are you opening odin prior to plugging your phone in?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Have you used odin before?
