[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koopaversal1:
My friend said he could use SGS Kernel Flasher (from the market) to install an Overclock 1.2Ghz Kernel to my Captivate. It didn't work. Now when the phone boots, The ATT World Phone boot image shows for about a second, and then a Galaxy S GT-I9000 screen (which is kinda cool) and then thats it. It just stays there. Any Input. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
Just flash back to stock using odin one click.

But before u do it, pull the battery cover and battery off, and see what the build number of ur phone is. if its 10.06 or 10.07 or 10.08 or 10.09, u can use one click odin. if its 10.10 or later there should be another procedure posted on this forum in some thread.

Edit:

Some kernels take long time to boot, upto 5 minutes at times, for the first boot. So being patient too helps at times.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] geckobear:
Sorry for yet another thread on cases, was wondering if anyone has found a G2 case with a kickstand other than the clear and black ones by the OEM. I've had the black one for a few months and the case to the front has already broken. Stand is kind of a dealbreaker for me as my phone's been my main source of entertainment the last month or so (my apartment was robbed of tv, computer etc and I'm still saving up for replacements).
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] PatrickHuey:
geeze man, I really do feel for you and I hope everything in the future goes well. But with the case, I would look on eBay, and or Amazon if you haven't yet. There always seems to be more stuff on those sites. I thought I saw a body glove case with a stand, but I wouldn't bet on it.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ionic7:
I would save up for a gun and a deadbolt first.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] geckobear:
Thanks guys. I actually have the body glove one, its what I got thru T-Mobile. The part that goes over the top is what broke. I've tried Amazon with no luck, but ill try eBay now.

Deadbolt didn't do anything ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Nospin:
I don't know if they still have one, but otterbox ran a special where you got a free stand when you ordered a case. Looks great and the g2 sits nice even when in the case.

i hope this isn't a common issue, but i feel like it should be. when in browser, swype will never autospace after a word. everythingwillwritelikethis. it works in opera mini though. is there a fix for this? thanks.
[Epic 4G General] Arion02:
Mine does the same thing. Drives me crazy. I'm sure there is an easy fix, I just haven't looked. I have noticed that the space bar has a little red circle with line through it. Almost like its disabled or something. Anyway, hopefully someone can help us :-)
[Epic 4G General] phdeez:
Well, I'm on stock Rom (DI18) and swype doesn't auto-space while in the address bar.... that is the only time I've noticed it (posted ok in forums, used it for searches, etc). The "little red circle" is showing you that auto-space is disabled. You can still press the space bar and it will work.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Pretty sure it does this because URL's dont have spaces. Sucks for when you are using the address bar for searching though.
[Epic 4G General] mxcoldhit:
If you use the search button it will auto space. If you use the address bar it won't. I think its that way because when you use the address bar for a multi word url its not supposed to be spaces, such as www.writeexamplehere.com you would then get annoyed having to delete the spaces from the url. When doing a general search, I just is the search button so it will auto space.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
Every one I have tried so far takes screenshots that need to be rotated 90° clockwise.

Can this be fixed, or haven't I found the right app?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tunwear:
Just press the nook button and vol down button at the same time to take a screenshot.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] 911jason:
I don't like the built-in method, I could never get it to take a screenshot without the notification volume displayed on the screen from pressing the vol - button. I use the ShootMe app for my screenshots.

As for the OP's question, I don't know if any app will take it in a vertical image, but you can easily rotate the screenshot on your phone with a number of apps. I use the free Adobe Photoshop mobile app.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
How do I point Photoshop to my SD card?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] 911jason:
When I use ShootMe, it saves the screenshot to the SD card in a folder called ShootMe, then when I open Photoshop, it just automatically shows up in the image gallery. They're easy to identify because they're sideways. ;)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
Yea, nothing shows up in Photoshop. And I can't tell bit where to look, even though the screen shots are on the root of the SD card
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
Is there any app that takes a properly oriented screen shot? I don't want to bother with rotating pics
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mendez91:
Well, The app i use for screenshots is called "Screenshot" and i can say that personally

is the best screenshot app there is, and for rotating pics just use the app "QuickPic" which serves me as replacement for the stock Gallery app which sucks. QuickPic lets you rotate the pics, aswell with options to share with social apps. although you need to have Softkeys, or Button savior installed to access the menu button. Is not a hard process at all and the best of all is that both apps are free.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] golfprorm:
I don't have any problem using the built-in screenshot. To do it without getting the volume change on screen, hold down the N button and then press volume down. Works every time for me.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
Thanks, where are images written to?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] 911jason:
I'm pretty sure they go into a "screenshots" folder on the internal memory, not the SD card.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bugeyed1:
I used to be able to get screenshots using the stock method without the vol displayed, but I cannot anymore!

OK, just tried it with a very brief press of "n" & "vol-" & it worked fine.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
I see /media/internal/ but no images show up.

I simply can't get the "easy way" to work! Maybe some sort of conflict with apps? I'm just using ADW and SoftKeys... this is driving me nuts
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] 911jason:
I just did the stock screenshot (N+VOL-) to verify, using root explorer, I am able to locate the screenshot in /media/Screenshots.

On a sidenote, I tried golfprorm's method of holding down the N button first and then clicking the VOL- button and I still got the "Notification Volume" image on the screenshot.

P.S. When you take a screenshot with the built-in feature, you should get a notification telling you "Screenshot captured" with a clickable link to the image.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] thereddog:
Yea, for whatever reason, not getting any of that..
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] TJNooker:
Revive...

I cannot get my Nook Color to take a screenshot using the stock method of hold the physical N-button + tap volume down. Could this have to do with the fact that I remapped my volume buttons to back and menu?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] 911jason:
Yes, that would be the cause.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jayhawkfan18:
I also can't get the n+volume down method to work without showing the notification volume image on the screen shot. I also tried using the app called "screenshot" because I use this on my Incredible and it distorted the colors of the wallpaper to make it look all funky. Any ideas on why it would have done that? I'll try to post a pic here shortly to show you all what I mean...
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] TJNooker:
Do you know of a work-around or should I just download a screenshot app?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] BGrutter:
I'm running CM7 and am trying to take a screenshot. The stock method does nothing, I'm assuming because of CM7.

I've tried both shootme and screenshot. For some reason, all the images from screenshot just show up as full black pictures with a VERY small ~2x6pixel white line along the left side and near the top. From shootme, they're just black. I've tried sending them to my DInc, but they look the same..

I've tried the following file types with corresponding file sizes on screenshot: .PNG 1.87k, .jpg 10.15k, and .bumper 2.34m.

Any thoughts?

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blindmanpb:
I've got a bad feeling that it's beyond help, but I'm hoping someone may be able to help.

I just tried to flash the engineering bootloader. It LOOKED like it completed successfully, however, when my phone restarted, I got nothing. Blank screen, no backlight.

I cannot boot into recovery, hboot, fastboot. Any attempt at booting my Eris into anything results in a black screen, almost like it is off.

I'd almost think it was completely fried, except for this. If I completely shut it off by removing the charger & battery, then replacing the battery and plugging it in, the orange LED comes on, like it's charging normally. It will even turn green if I leave it plugged in long enough, like it's fully charged. If I leave it plugged in and try to turn it on, the charging LED goes off. Still no screen or anything, but the LED will stay off until I remove & reinsert the battery.

I'm really drawing a blank here. I've searched this forum and google to no avail.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EhudBenjamin:
Will your computer recognize it? I have not tried to install a different boot loader but I believe I saw it can be done through sdk.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
I've got a bad feeling too.

Everything else on the phone gets launched by the bootloader, so if the bootloader goes, there goes the phone.

Would you mind saying how you were trying to replace the bootloader? (What the exact steps you attempted?) Did you take any special precautions about charging the battery beforehand, or performing any checksum verifications of any files you used? What instructions were you following?

When you pull the battery out, make sure that you also remove the charger cable so that no power is trickling into the phone that way. With the battery out, press all the buttons (one at a time or together, doesn't matter). Then reinsert the battery, and put the phone on the AC charger.

Then try seeing if anything will happen with any of the following key sequences (you might want to do the battery/charger disconnect between each attempt to be thorough):

Vol-Down+End (HBOOT)

Send+End (FASTBOOT)

End (Normal Boot)

If you get no response from any of those, the only other possibility (other than the phone being dead) is a problem with the battery. If you have a friend with an Eris you could try swapping batteries.

Given that the problem cropped up immediately after you were attempting to fool with the bootloader though suggests that you probably did brick your Eris.

sorry.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blindmanpb:
Computer won't recognize it.

I was following instructions on a post in a thread here. I honestly can't remember which one. All I can remember is that the name of the file was erisengspl.zip I can't seem to find it by searching either.

Battery was at least 70% charged. I flashed the zip through amon_ra recovery.

I've tried booting into hboot, fastboot, and recovery already. I don't even think it's making it that far.

I've been removing the cable each time I removed the battery. There is a store that specializes in cell phone batteries nearby though. I think I'll see if they will let me test out a battery before I buy one.

Well, at least I've still got my previous phone lying around, and I'm due for an upgrade in a couple of months.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
blindmanpb,

I forgot to ask: what was the version number of the pre-existing bootloader on the phone?

Was it a really old bootloader?

For testing purposes, I had rolled back my phone using the HTC MR1 and Leak-V1 PB00IMG.ZIP ROMs (1.47.0000 S-ON and 1.49.0000 S-ON, respectively), and then rooted each of them to install a custom recovery, and then attempted the "erisengspl.zip" flash on each.

It worked successfully when the 1.49.0000 S-ON bootloader was present; when the 1.47.0000 S-ON was present, the on-screen behavior of that flashing process seemed identical, but it failed silently - on rebooting the phone, 1.47.0000 S-ON was still there.

I would hate to see anybody else end up with a brick, so if you are aware of any other details that might be pertinent, please consider sharing them.

Sorry about your phone.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blindmanpb:
I believe I had 1.46.0000 S-ON.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Thank you very much - that is new information. Hopefully it will prevent others from having the same experience. (In general, people don't like to talk about bad experiences).

If you are very confident that that was the version number, you might consider putting a reply to this post to let people know what happened to you. Between your experience and mine, it is very evident that the "erisengspl.zip" flashable zip method should ONLY be used by people that have the 1.49.0000 S-ON bootloader.

I went through and added the following warning to every post of mine I could find which mentions "erisengspl.zip":

Guys

If I buy a HD7 of ebay that has been imported into aus .. will I have any problems?

particularly thinking about live services/market place/zune issues

Cheers
[HD7 General] epic30seven:
I imported 2 and they work fine...

Hi Cameron,

I imported 2 HD7's for myself and my missus. They work fine, the guy I purchased them from unlocked them so we could use them with any sim. (not developer unlocked - not sure of the correct terminology). We use a virgin sim.

Hey let me know if you'd want me to get one for you, I was thinking of getting a few and putting em up on eBay myself.

Seems to be heaps of Aussie apps out there, but would be good when the market place grows. No probs with the Marketplace but have only downloaded free stuff so far. Live services all seem to work as far as I can see and only Zune issues are me getting used to it syncing etc.

I do wish there were some decent Aussie GPS navigation apps, that is one thing I am waiting for big time as GPS was a deciding factor in me getting a new phone.

Anything you'd like to know just send me a pm.

Cheers

[G Tablet Accessories] jaycard:
After looking for a case endlessly and having to protect it somehow from scratches.. I made a little case for my G Tablet. If I had a sewing machine it would look a lot cleaner. But, I had to sew by hand which I am very bad at.

Overall this case is working perfect for me!

In case you're interested.. Here is how I did it:

I bought a folder "Padfolio" from my local CVS.

Since I cannot post a link at this time. Just go to CVS website and search for

" Mead - Padfolio, 12-1/2 X 9-1/2-Inches " you'll see the folder I used.

Then I cut it down to size. I had to cut about 1" on the sides and top off.

After you cut it, trim the cardboard filler that is in the middle about 1/8 of an inch. Then sew it shut!

I used velcro to attach the tablet to the folder and it has held very nicely and firm. I bought "Scotch " brand velcro at Autozone, but I have seen it at Home Depot and Radio Shack as well.

I used a little piece from the left overs I cut out and made that little flap to keep the case closed. (I used velcro to attach it to the case, again it is holding very well.)

So there it goes. With a little patience and time and hopefully access to a sewing machine you can make your own!

Hope you enjoyed :)

P.S. I couldn't fix the title of post lol its DIY not DYI
[G Tablet Accessories] aasoror:

Yeah I'm going to check out that one from Amazon. After seeing the pics, I don't like how that one closes with the G Tablet. It seems kind of forced.

I also like the USB Keyboard combination case that's customized for the G Tablet. I ordered one of those for $25

What does HTC__044 mean?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazz9690:
it means that you do not have supercid
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamthechickengod:
Despite that, did I do a successful root?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazz9690:
From the information you posted, you are S-Off (@secu_flag:0) and your sim is unlocked (@SIMLOCK=00), so you should have successfully rooted.

Just to verify, do you have superuser privileges? If you do, then you should be set.

If you want the supercid privileges, I cannot help you there. I did not have that problem when I used gfree, nor have I seen anyone else with this problem.

Quick question though. Since you have everything but supercid, did you run:

# ./gfree -f

# sync

Or did you run another line besides "-f".

That is the only thing that I can see as to why you do not have it, but then again, my knowledge is limited when it comes to gfree.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamthechickengod:
I did run -f and sync. The Superuser app is on the applications menu. I just wanted to make sure I was properly rooted. I was also able to make a backup of the ROM (I already had S-Off before from a previous attempt). I tried following the procedure to set S-Off back to S-On using #./grfree -s on but I got permission denied. I am not sure if I was doing it right.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tazz9690:
Your software number tells you what version you are running.

You have 1.34, not the 1.72 update.

If you had the 1.72 update, you would not have been able to use the wiki, you would have had to use the new method (psneuter) to obtain temp root and then downgrade to an older version to then be able to use gfree.
