[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagb1967:
It happend after I flashed JK5 (I lost track with so many updates)

The phone is not recognized by windows anymore, cannot access odin or anything.

I have another vibrant and is still working so drivers are installed and everything.

The phone does recognize the connection, lets you choose, can get into download mode, but is just not being seen by the PC,

Since the other vibrant connects fine cable is also right, it is a problem strictly with this phone.

I tried flashing other roms, modems, and so on via CWM but problem is not solved.

Any help or ideas will be appreciated

I had the same problem. Someone said try usb debugging, & it worked like a charm.

Applications/development/usb debugging. I hope this helps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagb1967:
Thanks, I tried that, and all the options for pairing without success :(
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahnburner:
If USB debugging is enabled, it shouldn't give you a choice of usb connection mode. Make sure your USB cable is unplugged when you enable debugging, or else it will just tell you to unplug and try again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagb1967:
I meant to say, first i tried with debugging enabled, did not work, after that i disable debugging and tried Kies, Emdia Player and Mass Storage, still not recognized, also is not recognized when in Download mode.......

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RegnierD:
I know, I know, I should be using Linux. I can't do that when I'm at work, however, and every method of loopback mounting for Windows XP I've Googled has yielded zilch for results. So are there any rom porters out there who have been able to mount any of the img files from an RUU as loopback devices? Anybody?

I'm a romwhore, and I'm damn proud of it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hachamacha:
First thought would be a little linux VM, which would work no question. (vBox or VMWare Server - free downloads from Oracle or VMWare)

Next is a utility I've used in windows that works well: I think it's called magicdisk. I think the only drawback I found was that now and then (and this was in old versions of it) it did such a good job of emulation that windows decided the actual hardware had changed and might ask to be re-activated. That may have been a complete fluke. In the device manager it appears to be an actual CD or floppy or whatever the img type is.

I doubt that every .img file will work, but I've not seen any .iso files that wouldn't loop mount. This is read-only of course.

So I had BusyBox on my phone, and deleted it.. Then going through my SD card to delete a folder for something else I noticed a file called BusyBox, so I went to delete it.. Then it started to delete the entire internal SD slot, and from what it looks like formatted the drive.. Now I've lost all my music and any game files that were on there. WTH happened?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdKeys:
If you were trying to temp root, then I'm assuming you still have the OEM software from T Mobile. If so, then try the instructions from the link below if all else fails. You're going to have to remove the sd card and place the update.zip file onto it using another method of course. Make sure you put the update.zip file onto the root of the sd card and not in any folder before you put it back into the G2. The update.zip file can be downloaded from

here

. It's also linked in the instructions posted on that page as well.

[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droopypillow:
so i had no problems going from nightly to nightly up until i did the mtd partitions..

ever since then i flash the newest nightly then the mtd boot zip then after reboot im still on nightly #7..it did the same thing with the newest froyo radio until i flashed thru flashboot..then it stuck. is this something to do with my cache mtd partition not being large enough its 1.5mb
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droopypillow:
Anybody
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusicMan374:
I had a similar issue when I flashed the new radio. Well, not entirely similar, but yes it MAY have something to do with your cache. It shouldn't, but it might. Flashing new nightlies worked fine for me with MTD. Are you sure you're doing it in the right order? ROM, gapps/custom kernel (if any), THEN boot patcher?

When I flashed the newest radio, somehow it broke my /data partition, like it erased the file system tables or something rather, because the data was still taking up space, but no files were listed and /data/app was completely gone. I figured it must have had something to do with my 1.5 mb cache, since that's where the radio is supposed to copy to. It must've failed to write to /cache so it wrote to /data and overwrote something important, who knows. You MIGHT want to raise your cache to 20-50mb. Right now I have a 140mb /system and a 50 mb /cache.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droopypillow:
Thanx..I actually went back and cleared the mtd partitions installed build 9 and reinstalled mtd with 10mb cache and it worked fine..

[Defy General] lilazngoku8:
How do I get a black notification bar on top.. such as this ? http://cdn2.staztic.com/screenshots/zeam-launcher-287-1.jpg

oh and a simple question i think.

If you buy apps off the market, and you install different firmware, which requires a wipe, is it possible to get the app back ?
[Defy General] jjp84:
There are multiple themes that you can apply to get the black bar, JBoogie has a theme on this forum that you can use by applying with Metamorph (market). You will need to deodex your files for the white clock though.

You can also flash many different roms as a lot of the devs have placed them in their creations for a sleaker look. Either way works good, just depends on what you wanna do.

As for the apps, if rooted, you can download Titanium Backup (Pro is better than the free). You can backup all your apps and/or data that way anytime you flash a new rom, you redownload Titanium and restor through there. Works great if you are gonna be switching around often.
[Defy General] Step666:
Even without backing them up yourself, any apps you have paid for are stored under your Google account details, therefore whenever you sign into a new Android device using the same account details, you can download them same apps again at no additional cost.

If it didn't do that, you'd need to re-purchase Titanium Backup Pro every time you re-flashed/wiped...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakjak220:
Ok, first of all, I've done a lot of reading so I'm not just postin w/o lookin but, with all the posts out there I may have missed something... so if there's a thread(s) that answers this that you know of a link would be awesome.....

So I've been rooted for a while and want to try out a new ROM... had a few questions

1) Before I flash a new ROM I do a Nandroid and wipe so... when I flash the new ROM are all my apps still there or do I have to go into Titanium Backup and restore each one from the SD? .. Basically, once I flash, how do I get all my apps that I use on a daily basis back up and runnin?

2) I know making a Nandroid backsup the whole system so, if I flash a new ROM, kernel and all and then restore to pre-flash then I will have the original radios, kernel and everything?...

3) Is there a ROM that is really stable, fairly fast (would rather speed over battery life) and has a lot of pre-built themes built?... I've made a couple of my own "partial" themes with custom icons and such but would like some pre-made stuff to play around with...

4) I've learned a whole sh!t-ton of stuff from you guys on here so thanks, us average folks (non-programmer) appreciate it..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
1. You will restore all your apps with TB

2. If you restore a backup you will have everything back to before you flashed a new rom.

3. I like using Fresh but its a sense rom but very great :D, but yea just look around and pick a rom. Experiment and good luck
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakjak220:
thanks man, I was already lookin at Fresh so I may give it a try tomorrow...

One more thing, I love the Swype keyboard and dont wanna lose it... so is that like an app that I just backup in TB and restore with whatever ROM I flash or a I stuck with the ROM's keyboard..?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jalexishg:
I'm not sure but I think you can download SWYPE from market.

EDIT : I have tried a lot of ROM here, I'll recommend you MIUI... Good luck and welcome to the DARK-Side... =]
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
Its an apk file, so yes just back it up and your good :), also fresh already has swype installed so your good to go.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toxin715:
No swype is not on the market, nor can we post the apk on XDA
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Buff McBigstuff:
1) Yes use TB to restore your apps. I recommend the paid version because it restores fast and automatically. I don't have to manually confirm each one like my cheap ass girlfriend...but she doesn't flash much. The poor Epic devs don't have froyo source.

2) Yes except for the radios. I nandroid just in case but I prefer reflashing what ever rom I'm going back to because nandroid restores just didn't run as well. But I have a new phone now so maybe that is changed.

3) Try MIUI its so fast that I underclock to 499 and it still feels like its full speed. It also has a built in theme manager. Also cyanogenmod has a lot of themes (turrrrible sentence structure). If you don't like aosp try myn's rom.

Oh ok, Thanks a lot for the info.:cool:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
i think most of your questions are answered. i'll just give you the usual must try rom list:

myn's warm twopointtwo: this is the complete theme rom. it is simply fantastic. really, it looks like a new phone. performance is great, added apps are good, tweaks are good, everything is good really. it is definetally a must try. do not miss this.

caulkin's evio 2: another absolute must try. the tweaks are what make this rom special. caulkin knows his code. this is the fastest sense rom i have ever tried. simply speedy, fantastic battery, great tweaks by caulkin (almost all other devs use his tweaks) and a slick, silvery theme that makes sense look not ugly. in my opinion, this is myns only rival rom. crazy good.

ava-froyo z series: very good rom. ava knows his code. he has really dived deep into the evo's system, and made tweaks to just about everything, even how the radios interact. this is the rom if you want pure tweakage. works for some, for others it does not work. i'd reccomend trying it for 2 or 3 days to see if it is fantastic, or really slow and bad battery.

mikfroyo: i personally dont like this but many do. very small, fast rom.

then you have the aosp roms. these are not based off evo code. built from the ground up, using only google's base code for android.

cyanogenmod: humungous project. works on many different phones. vanilla style (google) android. many tweaks that should have been in android in the first place. this is the ultimate pure android. it should be what google uses for their stock. the things these people think up, makes iphones jealous. too much to name.

miui: many people like this. i dont, but its all preferance. iphone-like rom without all the, um, iphone. looks and feels as slick, fast, and battery efficiant as the iphone 4 itself, but its android! i have no idea who these dudes are, but they must be programmers because they baisically rewrote android to look, feel, and act like a crossover, with many tweaks in between. fully customizabe, not at all vanilla android. a must try. you may not like it but then again you may love it.

again, try caulkins, myns, miui, and any more that you may want.

any more reccomendations to add to this list?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakjak220:
Thanks for the info guys, really helped me out...

I know to do a nandroid backup but I've read all kinds of different stuff about what to backup and what app to use to back it up... apps? texts/calls? data? ... I just dont want to miss anything...

So far I've backed up all my apps in Titanium, my texts and calls with two apps for that, my contacts to google and just in case I backed up my whole SD card to my desktop... Anything that y'all can think of that I may have missed?.. Again, thanks

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
I was expecting that.

Either way, you really went above and beyond on backing up. I wouldn't worry about much more. To do a nandroid backup, boot into recovery. Scroll to backup/restore. Choose NAND backup. Make sure system, data, boot, cache, radio, and wimax are all checked. Then hit backup. Wait 5 minutes. Done. This is all assuming you have the newest Amon-ra recovery. If not, go to rom manager and choose flash alternate recovery at the bottom. Amon recovery is highly recommended over clockwormod. Sadly clockwork mod is the default for unrevoked.

So after you backup, make sure you wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache twice each before flashing a rom. Good luck

Also, just to note, if you like me FORGOT to back up all apps before flashing for the first time (ouch), you can get swype back very easily! They opened up the beta again, so you can just download from their website from your phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
Isn't swype in the newest ota now? Well, the beta is better. If you want the beta instead of the ota version, use root explorer or adb commands to delete swype.apk from /system/app/ and libswypecore.so from /system/lib/. Then just install the beta like normal, and accept the do not update to newest ota warning it gives you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakjak220:
How's the beta version better, what's it got that the version that's included in Warm2.2 doesnt have?

By the way, just my opinion but I tried MIUI and really didnt care for it.. too... iPhoneISH I guess, didnt feel as intuitive as Sense to me... but then again I've never had an iPhone.. anyway, just my 0.2cents
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
the beta version is better bcuz it is newer. newest is best, as they say. the ota is 2.7.something and the beta is on 2.17 already. the ota one is included in myns, and all sense roms. i'm not into miui either, but many people are. hey, its worth the flash to try it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakjak220:
Oh ok, well I'll just stick with the OTA version for now I guess if there arent any glaring differences... and yeah, it was worth a try.. I can see how that would be someone's cup of tea.. just not mine.

b4 anyone says Google before starting a thread, id like to say ive done nothing but googled this lol... ok to the point.

i love my hd2 which is romed with a normal desire rom. it runs and performs better then the desire HD roms ive found (better battery too) . but the desire hd roms just look so much cleaner and eye candy. even thou the sense interface structure is almost identical on both roms types, the desire hd looks more clear and clean. Fonts are smaller and shaper and the overall screen resolution seems higher. so what do i want?

Well i can live with the lower screen resolution feel of the standard desire but is there anyway to decrease the font size of the text globally which would apply to the htc sense interface widgets(mail, bookmark, freindstream etc)...lastly anyway to port the desire hd skins? (slate for example)..ive found several ports but they only work on desire hd/z build roms. Not found too much on ports to normal desire.

Would like to thank everyone in advance for their help. :)

My ultimate goal is to have the stability and performance of the normal desire rom with the some of the look and feel of the hd/Z roms. If we can decrease the font size and port some skins we can achieve this.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TheATHEiST:
Nope, that only works if you still have charge left in battery. removing and putting it back in also unlocks it because if you power on phone with USB in it locks for some reason. Well mine does anyway.

If your battery is completley dead then you have no choice (atm) to either charge the battery externally with a dock or by using a USB cable with end cut off (red wire to positive/black to negative).
