[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapplefish:
My captivate won't boot into CWM recovery, even when directed by the Rom Manager app.

Completely stock rom, rooted. I've already flashed the latest version via the app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
Check your internal sd card for an update.zip file. If it's not there, I believe it's in the clockworkmod folder, named 'recovery-update.zip'. Copy and paste it to the root of your sd card and rename it update.zip. You should be good to go.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapplefish:
After this I reboot into recovery mode and flash update.zip?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
Yes, reboot into recovery. Use the volume rocker to scroll to 're-install packages' and press the power button to select it. It will probably reboot you right back to the same screen again, with the blue and yellow letters, if it does, re-install packages again and that should boot you right into clockwork recovery. All the text in clockwork is green, so you'll know when it's a success.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapplefish:
OK, I get to that, do a phone reboot, tell it to reboot into CWM and it still reverts back to the samsung recovery screen??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
So have you seen the actual CWM recovery screen? Black background and green words? If you're still seeing the samsung recovery with the blue and yellow words, re-install packages again.

And double check to make sure that the update.zip is in the root/main part of the internal sd card.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapplefish:
Yes, I had made sure that the update.zip was in the right place, I did see the black background and green words, and I've flashed the update multiple times (have also tried redownloading, renaming again and reflashing). No dice.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
Oh, ok, well that completes the process of booting into CWM. Now what do you need to use CWM for?

If you're flashing ROM's:

find a ROM that you want

download it

place it on your sd card

scroll down and select 'install zip from sd card'

then scroll and select 'choose zip from sd card'

then find the rom and select

then confirm your action by scrolling and selecting the rom again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapplefish:
Well, I would select a rom to flash, but it would reboot into the samsung recovery screen; I can get to CWM by flashing the update again, and then flashing the zip from there, but I assume that's not the correct way to do it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
Yes, actually that is the correct way to do it. Sometimes you have to flash the update twice in order for samsung recovery to take you into CWM.

Just get into CWM and flash from there.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapplefish:
Ah, alright, I thought what I had been doing was abnormal. Thanks a ton.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
No problem at all. Glad I could help and glad it worked for ya!

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to say that I am working on porting my theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=918033 from the DROID2 over to the DROID X.

It should be out in the next week and I need a few testers since I don't have a droid x. Please pm me if you can test.

This will not work for liberty out of the box but if enough people like it I will port it over. On release it will be made for fission.

It will have a white status bar and that will not change. Check out some screen shots from the droid 2 version if you want to see how it looks.

this happend to me also with combo update i know u say u cant access sd but if you can just flash an older radio and it should fix it. i had to put my sd in a adapter put it in pc dl old radio put sd back in phone then flash. fixed it
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chumba8:
You really need adb. I know is kinda scary I was in your shoes once .but read about it download it play with it it will help you in the long run I have done what u have done at least 3 or 4 times the answer is here in the forums. It kills SD card and usb that's why your computer wont see the sd card . Only other option is if your have a SD card reader plug it into your computer sorry I can't be more help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caanon:
I had this happen to me on a plane, almost exact same circumstances. The HTC kernel in RLS4 is not compatible with the latest radios.

You need to use adb to push one of two things to the phone:

1. One of the alternate kernels - They work with the latest radios

2. The older (octoberish) radios - Something before the december release

Steps-ish:

adb shell

-> mount /dev/sdcard

-> exit

adb push one_of_the_two_above_zips.zip /dev/sdcard/zipname.zip

Then use clockworkmod to flash that zip from the SDcard.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xpertss:
late but just gonna say it anyways

Same exact thing happened to me 3 weeks ago.

here is what i did to fix it.

1- Take sd out and go to bootloader and power off from there.

2- downloaded the older radio image only

3- mount the sd and place the image in root

4- flash downgrade radio image and got my phone back to last known good stage.

Hope this will help some on. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greenfieldan:
Now that you're all squared away, I'd like to remind you of two things:

1) Please read before you flash stuff. I know this seems obvious, but Myn has clearly stated that the new kernel is NOT compatible with the old radios and that you had to update them or else this would happen.

2) ASK :D This is XDA! There are SO many people who are willing to help you, all you have to do is ask :) :) Trust me, you'd rather ask and wait then not ask and get yourself in this nasty mess! :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
Is the OP stuck at the white bootloader screen (the one with the 3 skate boards), or the boot animation screen?

I'm guessing the bootloader screen.

How does this happen from flashing a radio. I can see it getting jammed up at the boot animation screen, but the radio doesn't care what kernel/rom is installed, yes?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greenfieldan:
Nope. The new kernels don't play nicely with the old radios.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
Green, so where is the jam up occuring; at the white htc screen, the boot loader (3 skate boards at the bottom), or the boot animation?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greenfieldan:
I do not know. All I know is that people have various problems when usingoutdated radios with the new kernels. The problems are varying but they are always pretty severe :(

Thanks to all the DEVS on here i appreciate your time and talent, and i would donate to every one of you guys but im not the richest person in the world. I do have a request if it's possible, here goes. I do have a brand new mt4g 3 days old now because of the screen and constant apps crash from my other. Since i downloaded a couple apps from the market and made it much more USER GUI custom rather than roms, because i have found to fail in this department with finding anything that i like (i'm picky, sorry devs, you do make great roms though :D).

Attached is my home screen and i was wondering if anyone could make a simple mod (rom) to make the icon boxes transparent? Just show the icons? and remove the clock? I only ask this because I have the clock with beautiful widgets and did download another app for the power widgets. Or is there a simple setting i could mod in terminal? I appreciate it a bunch for anyone that could do this for me thanks a ton and....... (LONG LIVE XDA DEVS AND SUPPORTERS!!!)

Nope. I believe it's anyone who installs DK28. Atleast from everybody I know who has the same issue once I teach them how to root. Also when I had the DK28 leak it was the same issue so I kind of believe its DK28 and not the roms..

i previously rooted my phone then attempted to unroot it. when i attempted to install the pc36img thing or whatever it was, it said that it was older than what was on my phone. well now i still have the superuser on my phone but it says that s-on. i would love to have it rooted again. any help will be appreciated and thanks in advance!
[EVO 4G General] TheMatrixx:
Having s-on/off only has to do with flashing unsigned ROMs. If you were unable to flash the official version, then that means your recovery is still custom. So download unrevoked forever, copy it to your sd card, remove or rename the PC36IMG you had there (you don't want to waste 10 minutes for it to tell you it was outdated again), and boot into recovery (turn your EVO completely off, hold voldown + power until you see a white screen, then choose recovery and press power again). From there just flash the forever zip, and S should be OFF again.
[EVO 4G General] tgrrb5:
are you referring to the reflash package or the unrevoked-forever-son zip?
[EVO 4G General] tgrrb5:
i'm sorry. i now see where you said forever zip
[EVO 4G General] tgrrb5:
i just flashed the forever zip and it still shows that s is on
[EVO 4G General] Rydah:
Just re-root with unrevoked.
[EVO 4G General] -viperboy-:
S-ON and being rooted are 2 different things. What was posted above was sorta right - S-Off allows the user to read/write to /system. The .zip for S-OFF should work for you, if it's not, IDK what to tell you.

To answer your question:

Vibrator vibe = (Vibrator) context.getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);

Then in the OnClickListener of your button:

vibe.vibrate(50); // 50 is time in ms

And dont forget you need to add the permission to the manifest (after the "</application>" tag):

Help!

I'm trying to theme the widget of the subsonic apk.

I downloaded the original apk. I then proceeded to decompile it, add my custom widget graphics, recompile the apk, and sign the file. I was able to install the apk with no issues. I was even able to add the widget to my homescreen, and it looked fine. But every time I open the program, I get an immediate force close. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

If someone wants to take a crack at it for me, I've attached the original apk, and the graphics from the drawable-hpdi folder. I'm probably missing something here, so I'd appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!
