Boom. You didn't read the question.

Op, do you have root already? If stock, what version and how did you get that version (kies, ota, etc)?

You say release 1.. I assume that means jfd. The ota to ji6 fixed t the phones that couldn't get into recovery (ie, kies to ji6 didn't work as a fix). Check the sticky to fix this, if that's the case

BOOM.

Guys thanks so much for the help. After being be locked out for too many attempted I had to glitch it while in call get to reset, still couldn't get to recovery with methods provided(your guys included) decided other methods should be looked at. Perused the root apps, found z4root worked, DL'd Rom manager and installed diff recovery. Still haven't tested recovery tho. Finally have rooted vibrant but gmail is stopping me from downloading attachments.

Lastly guys, where is some other good dev forum for vibrant? Roms seem to be slim picking.

For some reason every time I reboot my phone the bootstrapper screen comes up, and I have to choose reboot. Is this suppose to happen every time?
[Droid 2 Global General] chrstdvd:
Mine does sometimes but not exerytime. My phone gets sluggish at times or won't move to a new web page or my bars drop way low. I turn the phone off and back on. Some times I do not get the M logo and boot into the bootstrapper. I just figure it is doing what is good to put the system back ionto memory properly.
[Droid 2 Global General] ejaymd11:
Okay thanks a lot. Just wanted to make sure nothing was wrong.
[Droid 2 Global General] NiceGuysFinishLast:
Bootstrapper writes a file to the system to tell it to boot into CWR the next time it boots. That's why you have to hit "Bootstrap Recovery" before you hit "Reboot Recovery", so that it can write that file before you reboot. It's SUPPOSED to delete this file at startup, that's why when you start your phone normally you see "Droid 2 Bootstrapper has been granted super user permissions", it's going into the system files and deleting that file, so that next time you boot normally. Apparently, it doesn't do this properly on some systems, with no known reason. The manual fix is to use a root explorer like... Root Explorer or ES explorer to go in and delete that file. It will stay deleted until the next time you hit "Bootstrap Recovery". Since most people don't really use CWR or the Bootstrapper too frequently, this is acceptable. For an exact walkthrough, check over at androidforums.com or droidforums.net, I know I read it on one of those sites in the last 2 days. I believe the filename is bootstrap.ini, that should be a good search term. Edit: Try searching for logwrapper.bin as well.

hi all buddy ..

i m using froyo 2.2.1 but why we cant use 2.3.1 in polaris ?? bcos i have seen HTC HD2 they use 2.3.1 and its look so nice and good ..

and second thing we dont have Multi-touch input method

- Accelerometer sensor for UI auto-rotate ... its possible developer make software ? i think its a stupid question ...but developer knows batter then me ...
[Touch Cruise Android Development] l1q1d:
There is already a software method for rotation (using the "note" button) and we can't do nothing more about it.

For the 2.3.1, we wait for cm update or dzo's fresh update. We have few developers so there is a slow progress.

Have you tried reflashing with seus?
[XPERIA X10 General] lolman2810:
am trying that now was wierd again though i had to (in order to get it into flash mode)

take out battery and insert battery with back held down then the usb i.e. i couldnt just hold back and insert usb

hope this works, its a pitty i had my x10 just how i wanted it too :( oh well

edit: well the flashing worked so i shall have to start from scratch again, cheers for the input x10user
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
You're welcome. Sometimes it's best to start from scratch, as much of a pain as it is, but if you have a xRecovery backup you only need to root, install xRecovery and go from there.

i don't want shutter sound while taking pics

even in silent mode i can hear that sound

any other way to disable it
[7 Mozart General] kabumm:
reducing volume to 0 works for me :)

another way would be by editing the registry.
[7 Mozart General] vangrieg:
? What should I edit?
[7 Mozart General] Serjio_Z:
Find Windows\camerashutter_mirage.wav or shutter.wav and replace the empty .wav
[7 Mozart General] vangrieg:
That's the first thing I tried. Searching registry for these strings doesn't yield any results. The files themselves sit in \Windows, but I can't delete or replace them.

Which software did you use?
[7 Mozart General] breakbystealth:
Why would you want to take pictures with no sutter sound? I remember some one asking this before and was told the shutter sound is to stop people taking picture of people with out them knowing. It made me laugh too but you never know.
[7 Mozart General] vangrieg:
I personally want to remove it because it sounds at the wrong time, messing up my pictures of people.

If it worked properly, I'd certainly leave it. Don't know about the others. You can't disable it on the iPhone IIRC, but nobody complains. :)
[7 Mozart General] breakbystealth:
Try putting you finger over the speaker as it very easy to mute the sound like this and does not get in the way on the lense, just tried it for you and it kinda work. Its not the best fix but you never know it may help.
[7 Mozart General] WetSpot:
I only got my Mozart last week but turning the phone volume to "0" silences the camera...
[7 Mozart General] vangrieg:
Turning the volume all the way down works for me as well, but it's an awkward workaround - it doesn't work in the camera application itself, I have to do it beforehand, and it takes too much time.

There is a reg hack available for this.

UPDATED:

WARNING: THE ITEM POSTED BELOW ABOUT THE "LAGFIX" PORT OF THE GALAXY APOLLO PHONE DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY.

FOR DETAILS, READ: http://androidforums.com/desire-all...overclocked-stock-htc-rooted.html#post2208838

THE KERNEL - AS DESCRIBED BELOW - IS OK.

---

This is not a full blown tutorial. But I though useful to post anyway.

I managed a quadrant score of ~ 2200 (average after some samples).

Not overclocked.

My phone is standard stock HTC Desire, then upgraded to Froyo with the OTA update from HTC.

What I did (as a summary; as I said, this is not a full blown tutorial):

- compiled a custom kernel based on the bravo (original HTC desire source) with 3 patches as explained here: http://arighi.blogspot.com/2011/01/howto-install-custom-kernel-on-htc.html

- ext2 in the kernel (make sure it is in your kernel config)

- I left out some stuff (IPv6, router, PPP, IPsec, ...) but of course this does not affect performance

Then I ported the "lagfix" hack as explained in a thread for the Galaxy Apollo phone:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=892512

(concept is similar on HTC Desire; I created the ext2 looped file manually whilst in clockworkmod recovery mode)

Note that you will also need to compile a busybox with mkfs.ext2 (it is explained in the first link how to compile busybox; just make sure that you run the menuconfig first and then include mkfs.ext2).

In order to mount the ext2 file system at boot time, I also applied init.d as described in:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=894445

Now my init scripe (/etc/init.d/98ext2mounter) looks like this:

busybox mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0

busybox losetup /dev/loop0 /data/linux.ex2

logwrapper /data/local/e2fsck -p -f /dev/loop0

mount -t ext2 -o noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue /dev/loop0 /data/ext2data

Note that you will also need the e2fstools for ARM (to have e2fsck). Hmm ... I downloaded them from somewhere but I can't seem to find the link right now. Obviously you must have e2fsck in /data/local (see script).

Then if I use setCPU at max standard frequency (998 Mhz), I get 2300 as quadrant score (it kind of varies between 2100 ~ 2450).

Note that this is on standard HTC Desire OAT Froyo, rooted. So, no overclocking of the CPU.

Of course the CPU won't run any real faster in MHz terms. But the BFS scheduler in the kernel is better and there is IO improvement overall. This gives the better quadrant score.

You need a fair bit of linux skill to do this.
[Desire Android Development] danarama:
Haha.

OK, you're posting this everywhere so I'll ask the same questions everywhere.

So you're looping back to ext similar to data2sd. But you have no sync? So Isn't the high I/O only due to Cache write back, therefore fake? In which case, what is the point? Also, if you have no sync or journal, isn't your data at risk?

It doesn't seem to far off Sibere's original data2sd when he used an ext2 loop device. Now he uses: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=852219
[Desire Android Development] bbk:
I've test your, method :

-create a file "/system/etc/init.d/98ext2mounter" with lines in your first post (modified because my "e2fsck" file is in "/system/bin")

-chmod 777 /system/etc/init.d/98ext2mounter

but no better performance with Quadrant,

Where is my error ?

Information : I'm with EXT4 partition on sdcard
[Desire Android Development] b3ndik:
You couldn't make a flashable .zip for us noobs?
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
Hmm. I have never done that myself. I first need to study a little bit how to do that.
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
Did you create the necessary symlinks?

lrwxrwxrwx root root 2011-01-29 09:24 data -> /data/ext2data/data

lrwxrwxrwx root root 2011-01-29 09:24 system -> /data/ext2data/system

lrwxrwxrwx root root 2011-01-29 09:24 app -> /data/ext2data/app

lrwxrwxrwx root root 2011-01-29 09:24 app-private -> /data/ext2data/app-private
[Desire Android Development] Murd0ck:
i want to agree with you here.. it pretty much looks like the ext2sd with loop that cheats the system in those tests ppl have been seen having 4K+ scores with highspeed SDcards couse of it.
[Desire Android Development] bbk:
Howto create symlinks ?
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
I think (but am not 100% sure) that final sync at shutdown is enough. But after a couple of days usage, I have to check that it is indeed OK like that.

Just to be clear. I have not moved any apps to SD. I do not have so many apps installed so phone memory is enough for me. The loop file with the ext2 is on the phone.
[Desire Android Development] foobar66:
You can create symlinks with the "ln" command (see original files in the thread from the Samsung Apollo phone).
[Desire Android Development] bbk:
In witch repository ?

[G Tablet General] SnakeManJayd:
Hi, just had an idea and I thought I'd post it to see if there is any apps like this or if it is even possible?

Would it be possible to use a tablet pc as a monitor, either to extend your pc desktop, or to play xbox 360, or PS3 on? (no one cares about the wii, ha ha) The console controllers are wireless, it would be awesome if the screen could be wireless too. You wouldn't need to stop playing for a bathroom break, ha ha.

It has wireless and bluetooth, has nvidia tegra 2, and can play 1080p video, it seems as though the hardware is in place to do it... I'm not sure about bluetooth, but wifi should be more than fast enough to stream the video and audio.

There would most likely need to be software on both sides to get it to work.

Anyway, just thought I'd bring it up, any ideas?
[G Tablet General] geoffreywolter:
I don't see it happening. Definitely not with the consoles, opens up a whole HDCP / DRM can of worms. As to a PC, you can always use a remote desktop app.
[G Tablet General] 999ping:
Would you really want to?

Tablets are a compromise between screen real-estate and portability. Their screens are half the size of the smallest desktop monitors you can buy and low-end monitors aren't that expensive.

If you want dual screens on your PC, buying a second monitor is a far superior option than slaving your tablet screen to your desktop PC.
[G Tablet General] SnakeManJayd:
Fair enough.

Just thought it would be useful.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brullmarco:
Hello guys,

I have an HD2 with SPL version 3.03. I've looked around on the forums for a guide on how to downgrade it, but i can't find one. Is it even possible?

Because i've installed Android on it trough SD card method, and it's draining my battery! have to recharge twice a day now. I've read that i have to replace the original WINMO ROM with a custom one like VBNROM to save battery.

Is it possible to downgrade this SPL 3.03? or do you guys have any other suggestions on how to increase battery life?

Greetings!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] double_ofour:
es, just go to HTC.com, choose support, choose your phone (HD2) then find a firmware upgrade or software upgrade.. enter your s/n found on the back of ur device..

make sure its older version..
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ClydeB1:
Sorry m8 but you couldn't have searched too hard as there are plenty of references to flashing with spl 3.03.0000. You basically have 2 options, the first is to flash to an older version of your stock rom (via sd card) so that you get to an spl of 2.10.0000 or lower and then you can run HSPL3 to "crack" the spl.

Alternatively you can try the GoldCard (search xda for this) method which will allow you to flash any rom. Battery drainage can also be possibly solved by trying another radio
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brullmarco:
Okay, i will give it a try.

Can you just download firmware from HTC and install a older version over a new one? or do i have to do this through this SD card method?

@ClydeB1

Im using Radio 2.15.50.14. Guess this one is allright, since many ppl including yourself are using it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ClydeB1:
If the rom is for your phone you can just flash it to downgrade. Just be aware that the older rom might have a different radio, so be sure to check before continuing with Android.

Yes 2.15.50 is fine (any 50 series radio from 2.08.50 or higher will work)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brullmarco:
So I can just downgrade my ROM that easily? without using GoldCard etc.?

Which version should I download then? 3.14 is the version I am using now. It has SPL 3.03. Or can I just install 1.66.xxx.x version? Guess this one has a low SPL build.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ClydeB1:
1.66 will do just fine.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brullmarco:
So, the only thing I have to do is to connect my HD2 on my pc, and run the stock ROM for my country?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ClydeB1:
Yes........
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] brullmarco:
Okay, gonna try that! ^^

Thanks alot m8! =)
[Nook Color General] Matmax:
Ok, I turned my Nook (rooted 1.01) on yesterday after maybe 2 weeks not using it (was turned off all the time).

I got stuck in the colored n screen and turned it off by presseing power button after it didn't boot after some minutes.

Now it is doing nothing anymore. Blank screen, not booting no answer to anything (longpress or plugging USB)

I read that this might be because due to some reasn system is broken and i tried recovery using a disk with the clockwork image. After inserting the uSD, unfortunately it is also not booting and not responding to any long keypress, with or without power...

BTW1: the Nook cable power indicator is always yellow - its not getting green even if it was plugged in for some time. does that say anything?

BTW2: I am from europe and bought the Nook in the US, but cannot return it from here :-(

Any ideas ?

Any tip on how to find out if it is essentially functional?

Anytool I can use?

Thanks for any idea !
[Nook Color General] kusuriya:
The few things I would probably try from here is holding the power button for 10 seconds wait a bit and try to turn it on. Also turn it "on" where the lights and that come on and let it run till the battery dies, that could take a day or two, and see after some charging if it will start back up.
[Nook Color General] Matmax:
Good idea - it might be still running with a blank screen...

If I plug in the Nook cable in my PC, it tries to install a driver and a "OMAP360x" device can be seen in Win7 Device Manager. Does this prove that the device is still running ?

btw the Omap entry is just there for some seconds than drops out of the list automatically...
[Nook Color General] sammojohn:
You are getting the same thing like mine.

I fixed though. It is simple.

First make sure you have Clockwork Recovery burned to an uSD then plug the SD card to the nook.

Afterwards have the nook connected to your computer and keep the power button pressed for at least 15 seconds, cause you ought to see the screen go white and black really fast since it will be booting into recovery.

Now that is if you have enough battery. If not it will tell you to go plug it it for at least 15 mintutes to charge. In that case you will need to plug it in the outlet.

Do that and let me know what happens.
[Nook Color General] Matmax:
Will try this again, today and report.

Thanks!

Okay, so be clear for everyone, how did you root, and are you using the stock recovery or had you installed Clockwork Recovery?

I suspect your battery is just dead, but surely you've plugged it into the B&N charger and cable and left it for a while, right?
