I seem to be having trouble with shortccuts (adding) on launcherpro an dean,

I just get a quick black screen and then i'm dumped bcack to my main screen.

I do not have a crash. I uses autonooter to root my book.

Is it just a bad root and i should do it again from scratch?

Or is this a launcher/book issue?

Thanks

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remer13:
Long time follower (since my G1), first time poster (I think :))

My question is simple, is anyone working on or is there already an update.zip or similar one-click root for the official froyo.uvka6 that was released via Tmob/Kies?

I have searched and searched but most results take me to links for rooting 2.1 and upgrading to 2.2. but no root for the official 2.2.

Am I being impatient, have I not searched properly, has someone else already posted this question somewhere else?

Flame away, I don't care, but please answer my question or point me in the right direction if you can.

Thanks!

The old root update.zip file has worked for me on all releases including KA6
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remer13:
Thanks for a quick response...

I have tried the old update.zip and the following happens:

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

Possibly corrupt update.zip file? Other thoughts?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jun_808:
You need to toggle signature when you are in recovery before clicking update.zip. it happened to me also and that's all I did and it worked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remer13:
Could you please explain more. I no longer have CWM Recovery, just the stock 3e recovery, and am unable to locate any options to "toggle signature". Am I missing something there?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
The STOCK 3e recovery from odin files DOES NOT ALLOW update.zip files, no matter what you do!

To get clockworkmod running, you either need one of the voodoo kernels (which you can only flash through odin/hiemdall, because if this recovery issue) or you need root (the onlyone that works with these releases is SuperOneClick) to mount system as rw and push a modded 3e recovery (this part is found in many roms right now).

The easiest is to flash a voodoo kernel using odin, then boot recovery and flash away.

Thanks for the SuperOneClick worked great.

Enable usb debugging.

Launch the app and follow any directions that appear. Was super easy.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drscott333:
Yes, if it's the same as Samsung Galaxy S One Click Root, you install the One Click Root, plug your phone in and you have two options "One Click Root" and "One Click Unroot".

Fairly straight foreward. I was surprised how easy it was when I rooted my phone lol

Hope this helps!

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkeptiKSZ:
I was able to root as well using this method, however, once i am in I install clockwork recovery. Then I try to install a rom using rom manager and it only reboots into recovery 3e not clockwork. How can i make sure I get into clockwork to install from zip?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bstromberg:
try 'reinstall packages' until you get there. you may have to do it more than once
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkeptiKSZ:
It won't work. I have tried maybe 50 times. It seems to be a problem with Recovery <3e>

"E:failed to verify whole-file signature"

"E:signature verifications failed"

"installation aborted"

It will not allow me to get into clockwork. This was the reason I used superoneclick (worked) instead of oneclickroot to root my phone however clockwork is my next problem.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charpie:
Download the One click root

Unzip it

Open the executable. Make sure your phone is in debugging mode connected to your PC.

Let it do its magic.

I had a problem with the root when I used titanium backup. It kept telling me I wasn't rooted. When I opened titanium backup and it gave me the error message, I clicked on the "problems" button and allowed it to download busybox. VIOALA! I now have access to all my back ups and am rooted.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimhart3000:
This is happening to me, too. Also, when I tried to boot to recovery using the volume key method, it went straight to the android with exclamation point screen, wouldn't even allow me to try to reinstall packages. Booting into recovery from Rom Manager works but I get these errors when I try to reinstall packages.

I also tried to run Fix Permissions in Rom Manager and get "An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!" despite that I do have root access.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roccos_van:
OK...the 'official' froyo will lock your recovery so that you cannot flash any unsigned zips.

Once you have the phone rooted, dowload sgs kernel flasher from the market, start it, allow su permissions.

Now, BACKUP your stock kernel with sgs kernel flasher.

Once you've backed up the stock kernel, download one of the kernels from supercurio with clockwork pre-installed (the zip, not tar), put it in your internal sd, and flash it with sgs kernel flasher.

Now you have clockwork and can flash whatever you want.

TO EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT CWM NOT WORKING!

did you even read my post on the first page?!?!?!?!

IT"S NOT A LOCKED BOOTLOADER!

3e recovery has different signature verification. it has nothing to do with bootloader.

there are 2 options to overcome this. 1st is to get root, mount system as r/w through either root explorer or adb, and push the modified 3e recovery found in the dev section.

2nd is to flash, USING ODIN, one of the voodoo kernels, as they have CWM built into the kernel itself.

2nd option is MUUUUUUCH easier.

Ok, so I flashed ka6 voodoo kernal with Odin. Superuser is in my applications, but I can't get titanium or root explorer to work. I downloaded busybox through titanium w/o luck. I also downloaded superuser from the market. I then tried to flash the su and got an error. Any ideas? I don't want to mess anything up.

[HD2 Android NAND Development] djonoff:
Hey XDA community!

First of all: sorry for my bad english, i am just a regular HD2 owner from Eastern Europe. :)

Almost everyone who tried a cooked android experienced the Sod (Screen of death) issue. I read a hundred topic, comment and idea to solve this annoying problem, but none of those was really useful.

I guess i found a temporaly fix for that.

I noticed the main issue is the Android lock screen. So i started searching some widget to disable it. And it worked! So download the "Screen off" application from the market and disable the lock screen with it.

Et voilá: the SOD's gone.

I don't now why but it's working. Maybe it was not a g-sensor who caused the SOD.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] deckoff:
Could you share the name of the developer, there are at least 5 apps with screen off in their name...

Thank you:)
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Sean3:
Deckoff: I had the same question and the one I tried was by techvision systems.

It doesn't actually seem to put the phone in standby, but rather lowers the back light to 0, which is why there is no wake up delay or in the op's case no SOD. The back light never goes

off and you have no lock screen. Wake up is instant though.

I think perhaps this should be moved to Android Q&A
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mo2002:
I have a nexus one and I have yet to get gingerbread. My question is, in gingerbread (or upcoming honeycomb) is there any indication that gtalk will now support attaching pictures in a conversation? I hate to make references to applications on other OS but i saw that Blackberry Messenger has this feature and I currently use Beejive IM and it has the ability to do it while using gtalk.

Im just askin have the devs said anything about it? all i ever see is information about SIP and video chat.

P.S. I am aware you can just use MMS or email to do this, so please dont mention this. Its along more seamless when able to upload it through an IM conversation
[Vibrant General] BorisZX6R:
I am listing problems or issues that I found so far.

- no more Android keyboard as choice for input settings!

- Avatar link no longer works, it is not opening the movie (movie is on the SD card) and when going through a file manager to open it says content is locked and when I choose option to unlock nothing happens

- gps seems to be worse than before the update, I think I was on JI6 before, and it was acceptable, not the best, but still acceptable, indoors I would lock to 5-6 now it is viewing 9 indoors but not locking on (since I cannot go outside and test now I will post update later on...)

- no more weather clock widget...

I was just outside for a while and had the chance to test the gps in my car, it seems it is just as unreliable as stock before JI6, which in my case fixed the accuracy and lock on issues, now it jumps a lot more from place to place and the signal is lost much easier than before...

I purchased my Vibrant used but either way I can state with certainty that this is my last Samsung mobile purchase.

Even my friends HTC Aria works better and is more reliable than the over-hyped Samsung Galaxy S line, especially the Vibrant....

[HD2 General] Thatdudeyousaw:
Hello fellow XDA users,

I've had my HD2 since March of 2010 and have tinkered with Android and WP7 since the summer, but not until lat winter has my phone started to constantly overheat.

It's lessened over the past month (possibly because I've been using Android on NAND) but anytime I use my phone for an extended period of time, whether for web browsing, flipping through the gallery, or anything having to do with applications, my phone freezes up, prompting a battery pull.

When this happens constantly my phone overheats and never gets past boot up.

Sometimes leaving my phone in a cold place before booting helps, but it ends up overheating one way or another.

Do other HD2 tinkerers have the same problem or is my HD2 faulty is some way?
[HD2 General] CompuNerd©:
I had EXACTLY the same problem....

Rang up HTC, they sent collector out, checked it out and replaced the board with a brand new one

IIRR, it was diagnosed as 'Mainboard current leakage'

I was very greatful for the new board obviously, but as i'd previously payed my original provider (T-Mo UK) for the unlock, the new phone came back LOCKED and i had to go through some real grief to get HTC to provide me with the new unlock code for the new board, even though i had all documentation they asked for, they were very reluctant

It was only the fact that when i made the initial call to HTC and they arranged collection, i mentioned it was unlocked and told them to make a note of it, and i expected an unlocked one back, in the event of a replaced motherboard !!!

Hope this helps ;)

PS: REMEMBER to get it back to it's original factory state (ROM/bootloader/SPL) before sending it back of course !!!

EDIT: I tried allsorts of different ROMs/bootloaders in the hope that one would be fine but to no avail

MY ORIGINAL THREAD IS here :)
[HD2 General] Thatdudeyousaw:
Thank you very much for your reply!

I'm located in the states so I'm contemplating contacting T-mobile about the issue to see if they can simply send me a refurbished model (I'm sure they're stocked full of em:p).

I'm sure my family's legacy with them (9 years now) so hopefully they won't make too much of a fuss.

My only concern is whether they'll charge me if I don't restore my phone's SPL and bootloader.
[HD2 General] CompuNerd©:
I've never chanced it, but it'll void any existent warranty you have for sure, and more than likely a "note" on their system against your name for future dealings ?!?!

Best not take any chances mate ;) It's easy enough to do (from cold of course)
[HD2 General] Thatdudeyousaw:
I called Tmobile about the problem and they're sending in a new model. Until then I'll be restoring my phone and hopefully not worry about my phone overheating anymore! Thanks mate!
