It's a driver issue. You need to use the Samsung Mobile driver rather than the SGH-t959_Vibrant_USB_Drivers driver. There was a thread or even multiple threads containing both drivers. The Kies Mini contains the Samsung Mobile driver. Do a search or something and you'll find them. There are multiple ways you can do this. If you want, you can try uninstalling whatever driver you have now. Uninstall Kies Mini if you have it installed and still not recognized. Reboot and reinstall Kies Mini. reboot and do you Odin thing. GL

Hi, can anyone tell me whats the best andriod rom relese for daily use and games? BTW i need full guide how install android os on htc touch hd step by step. Thanks.
[Touch HD General] yellowperil:
There isnt one as yet that I think your after.

Most android builds are still just alpha in the sense that the HD will not work 100%, the GPS or camera will not function, or other missing key parts as such.

I don't believe you will find a complete 100% working build just yet, but I do think they are getting closer.

version 1.12 is in the first post

version 1.21 is in the second post

i didn't get wifi to work on either of these on my phone,but there are guys that say it works on HD

i suggest you to try 1.12 first

just download it,extract to sdcard

if you want to use a folder on sdcard so these files don't mess with others make a folder called andboot.froyox

extract everything there

open the folder go to "startup" folder in which there is "blackstone" folder,open it and copy startup.txt to folder in which you extracted the zip (overwrite the old startup.txt if you get prompted)

open the startup.txt file delete everythin,and paste this instead

set ramsize 0x10000000

set ramaddr 0x10000000

set mtype 2030

set KERNEL zImage

set initrd initrd.gz

set cmdline "lcd.density=240 msmts_calib=0x395.0x3c9.0x79.0x77 msmvkeyb_toggle=off msm_blackstone_pad.vibrate=1 pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=-2,-1,3 rel_path=andboot.froyox"

boot

save the startup.txt

and run HARET.exe

give the phone a bit time to compile the image (can take 10 minutes)

and that's pretty much that

[Blade General] leocrow:
I need some help choosing one of those two phones. This will be my first android phone so i don't want to spend too much money as i am a windows mobile fan. My options are:

1)ZTE Blade. 159 euros from a different provider than the one i have (phones are unlocked by default here so that wont be a problem) so i will have to pay the full price. It has an lcd screen and 256mb ram. I know that 512mb ram can be unlocked and i am comfortable with that sort of things but i don't want to do anything of the sort untill the official update to froyo 2.2.

Pros: Larger screen and big resolution. The 512mb ram that can be unlocked.

Cons: Battery and the lack of an official service center in my city. For the official upgrade to greek froyo 2.2 I will have to take it back to the shop i will buy it from because it will not be done over the internet. Very high SAR value.

2)Samsung Galaxy 3 (i5800). 159 euros by my provider, and since i will renew my contract for another year, i will have a discount of 67 euros, which makes it 92euros. (Otherwise i would have to settle for a 5 euro discount to my bill every month). It has an lcd screen and 256mb ram as well.

Pros:Better battery and price. Official service center in my city. Low SAR value. Easy to upgrade officially over the internet.

Cons: Nothing can be done about the 256mb ram. Smaller screen and resolution.

Bring on the comments!
[Blade General] miohtama:
Blade runs stock Android...

... so it is more likely to have future unofficial updates for it. Samsung phones have some Samsung customizations and Samsung usually drops support for its models under two years.

I am not sure if there is 2.2 or 2.3 unofficially available to Blade yet.
[Blade General] zabtcent:
Yes, tere are unofficial 2. 2 roms for Blade and if rumor is real we should get official 2. 2 in some time. :-)
[Blade General] leocrow:
Galaxy already got an official update. I don't want to get unofficial updates for some time for waranty reasons. But both have unofficial updates.

What bothers me most is the sar levels on the blade (too high) and the battery, but i am also annoyed by the small resolution of galaxy. However i'm leaning mostly towards galaxy
[Blade General] maff90:
i'm thinking of getting a zte blade but i currently have a htc diamond, does anyone think it's worth the extra £30 (after selling old phone), comparing the specs they look similar?

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SphericalPuma:
Before you say "search" I'm not talking about where people don't understand that the battery drains when you unplug it, blah blah blah.

I recently updated to 2.3.2 and when I go to the battery status in settings the chart never resets itself. What I mean is if it says it's been running for 10 hours on the battery and I shut down my phone and pull out the battery, put it back in and boot up the phone, it will still say my phone has been running for 10 hours.

Before whenever you plugged in the charger and then took it out the stats would reset to show you how long you've been running on the battery and I thought that was a neat feature. Now, like I said it never resets itself even after a reset. Is this attributed to the 2.3.2 update? Like I stated previously, whenever I would either: A. Reboot the phone or B. Plug in the charger, the battery stats chart would reset itself to reflect the current on time of the battery.

Has anyone else had this problem?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
This is not new to 2.3.2. 2.3.1 does the same thing. It only resets the timer once you've hit a full charge. I just checked my 2.3.2 phone, and it shows only 1:33 on battery, which is about right, and I had it on charger overnight.

A lot of us actually find this more useful than the old way, since a short boost charge (ie., not full) doesn't skew the statistics up like it used to.

And actually, a little search would have found threads discussing that behavior on 2.3.1, the second result there has a post from me that gives a good idea of what's going on. ;)

[G2 and Desire Z General] Rozza C:
Hello,

I have a friends who has a HTC Desire Z phone.

He has told me that he received and attempted to install an OTA update.

After installing the update, the phone's screen doesn't come on. Ever.

The key lights come on fine and the phone charges like normal when you plug it in and the phone is also recognised by my computer, although not in HTC Sync for some reason.

I've looked at some of the HTC Desire threads that explain similar problems to the one my friend is having, but they don't seem to work for me because they mention using HTC Sync, which I can't use.

Is there any advice you could possibly provide to get it fixed?

Thanks

Roz

--UPDATE--

Tried using a RUU to possibly change the firmware back to a compatible version, but all the version I've downloaded so far are giving me an error.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tbalden:
If u can use adb to access the phone u should try to use pneuter exploit. Look up the downgrade thread on development subforum. After that u can apply the older rom, and see if it helps.

But might be a hard time to use the hboot menu with no screen...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Rozza C:
And what if I can't?

The phone isn't showing up in "adb devices" list, so I'm assuming I can't access it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Do you have the eng hboot ? If so, you might be able to do something with fastboot.

Or alternatively you could try flashing a stock RUU image from your PC.

So far, the only one I've tried that "worked" is 1.72.405.2 but that's the one that caused the screen to be all screwy.

If the phone in question is not rooted, and still under warranty, why not turn it in for a new one or repair since you were simply trying to do an allowed update? Just a thought.

But my friend needs the phone fixed relatively quickly.

Flash back and reinstall everything! ( Hits Head On Desk~! )

So I am Asking for your help!

There Needs to be a way to backup the entire nand rom!

( Not Just The Programs - And Data )

So you can try different roms .. and go-back to one that kinda works! lol

( have tried sooo many that I wanna kill myself! - No I am No Kidding! )

I can not tell you how many times I have got a rom working 98% and

then install something .. or change just ONE setting ..

And BOOOOM .. It Doesnt work right ever again!

There has to be an EASY WAY TO BACKUP!

And Yes I Have Tried .. My Backup and Titanium Backup They SUCK!

They Do Not Work Well .. And Do Not Backup All Settings And Files!

( Yes I know They Say They Do .. No They Don't )

+ You Cant use them on different roms .. Screws Things Up .. I Know I Have Tried!

We Need something very simple ..

Just like how DFT Team made it with MAGLDR 1.11

SIMPLE - Easy - Works Every Freaking Time!!

Something that makes (1) Img file that gets copied to the SD Card!

No Partions Ect. Crap .. Then you could just Flash it back

I am Looking for a Complete NAND Memory Backup Program more like ..

Acronis or Ghost That Does an Image of the complete Nand Memory.

Something Universal .. would not matter if you use NAND or ZIP Or > Whatever comes next! to install Android

I figure .. If we can backup using "clockwork" maybe it could not be that hard

to make a program .. that will Image the Nand from Sec. 0 - 99999.

I am trying to express my feelings and MANY others I have seen in other threads.

That we need a SIMPLE.. way to backup the ENTIRE NAND And Do A Restore.

Maybe a VERY Striped Down Ver Of Clockwork Of Some Type ..

And I Would Hit The DONATE Button ..

So Freaking Fast It Would Make Your Head Spin!

And I Am Sure MANY Others Would to!

I Am Hoping A DEV Or Someone WAY Smarter then All Of Us Will Make

A Program That Will Do this .. Thats What This Thread Is About ..

Right .. you can not .. use the settings .. Not thats the point of this ..

The Point is we need a easy way to backup CURRENT ROM .. and restore it.

Without having to do 1000 things that may or may not work.

1. download one of the partition files, if you don't know which one you need, use the 250M one or check with rom developer.

( Were does that go ? And Why Do you need it ? - What One Do I Need ? - Again Hmmm .. )

2. Extract downloaded zip to a folder of your choice

3. Copy contents of copy_to_sd_root (initrd.gz and zImage) to the root of your sd card

4. boot into magldr and select USB Flasher option while phone is connected to PC

5. Run DAF.exe included in the zip and follow onscreen instructions.

( Were is that installed? - Why Do you need to do it ? - Does it Erase your Current Rom? )

6. After complete, again boot into magldr and select "Boot AD SD" option

7. ClockworkMod recovery should load, you can flash a rom from here.

( Have you Looked at the Menu's ? ) Hmmm .. Ok then ..

Ok .. Or Run a program that has two Options ?

Backup .. Restore ..

Hmmm .. Wonder whats easier ?
