[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
I would re-download a different ROM (making sure you don't have a corrupt download), check the MD5 SUM's to verify integrity of your download, mount USB Storage in Recovery to transfer the file to your USB card (when phone is off, hold down the Power and Volume Down buttons at the same time), wipe all user data/factory reset and Dalvik, and then reflash the ROM of your choice.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
Go to that link in my post, download the PB31IMG from the 2.2 Stock OTA, put it on the root of your SD card, boot into the bootloader and let it update. You will go back to being completely stock and unrooted. Root it and then try installing the rom again.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awaisuk:
Hey.

I use another sms app and I want to make it so when I press "Messaging" icon which is on the main screen to open that app rather than the stock messaging app....?

I know I can drag the stock icon to the home screen, but I like the stock messaging icon and want to use that for this app......

please let me know

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soulofkorea:
Download the app Desktop Visualizer and use that instead

- nvm thought you could do it this way but it's not working for the icon -

Long-press home screen to get to the menu

Custom shortcut -> Applications -> Pick your activity (in this case: your alternate SMS app like Handcent or Chomp)

Press the logo on the left of "Pick your activity" and change it to the default Messaging icon
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awaisuk:
thanks, but looks like it would not use the default launcher, but it will use launcherpro or any other launcher.......

There's speculation that it is related to the possible market announcement today... Let's hope something big!

(I would post a link but the XDA rules won't let me.. There is a post on Engadget about it though...)
[Nook Color General] jayhawkfan18:
I have a rooted NC running stock rom and a bunch of apps installed and all of a sudden i get a "download unsuccessful" message when trying to install apps from the market. I have tried a reboot and that didn't help either. Anyone else ever seen this happen before?
[Nook Color General] jayhawkfan18:
Looks like the market is down for everyone. Feel free to delete this thread. Thanks
[Nook Color General] k8108:
Thanks for the post, tho - I thought something was really wonky with my NC. I've been trying all evening to fix it. Now I know I just need to be patient. Much better than thinking I needed to re-root or something.

Help!!!! My rooted droid eris 2.1 just all of a sudden WILL NOT download/installl market apps but will download app, etc from the internet If you can help in any way THAT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL!!
[General Questions and Answers] Schnider:
will it say it is downloading then not do anything after that or just not do anything at all? I was having that same prob on my moto droid. Reset my phone then they all installed perfect...
[General Questions and Answers] ianreecej:
I had a similar issue yesterday but i did a complete wipe and reflashed my rom which solved the problem. If your market doesn't begin to work soon i would suggest that.

[Nook Color General] Thibor69:
Can I root on a 1.1.0 ?? or do I have to go back to a stock 1.0.1 ?

Thanks !
[Nook Color General] gedster314:
You could try using the Clock Work Recover sdcard image and try installing and see if that works. I suggest you use CWR back up utility before you try installing the 1.1 zip with CWR. Look in the Dev section for the rooted 1.1 zip and also the Recover image for the CWR.
[Nook Color General] zdrifter:
Another path to a rooted 1.1 NC would be to restore to stock 1.01, use AutoNooter to root, install ROM Manager from the market, use ROM Manager to install Clockwork Recovery, use ROM Manager to

Make a nandroid

, then use Decad3nce ROM to get to 1.1 (read the whole thread re the 1.1 ROM to what if any problems exist) ... the nandroid you make will help restore is anything goes wrong ... also if you have NON B&N apps installed now get Astro from the market, use it to backup the NON B&N apps (B4 restoring to stock) and you can avoid the redownload process .. after you are rooted you are better off with Titanium backup, but it requires root. hope this helps ...
[Nook Color General] Homer_S_xda:
Here are two alternatives without installing about 14 things to your NC:

1) Clockwork Recovery via SDcard

2) "Unofficial" Auto-nooter update

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
Thanks for the.offer but I was planning on doing it by like Wednesday or something. :)

I might take a little longer to get some stuff out, but I like to do a lot in the themes
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
I know that a lot of people want a nextheme or incognito port for dl30 and I don't think anyones working on it

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ke5tny:
Ok maybe im dense. Should cog support bt without static... Or since I upgraded to speed kernel that killed it.....
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
Now, you may have seen the other CM7 thread, and those who saw it know it was a cluster*MOD EDIT*. I'm just going to clear up some of the misinformation about the port.

1. I am currently running CM7 on my phone.

2. It is not a dual boot, unlike supercurio's NSONSGS work, it is an actual rom.

3. It is only being developed for the i9000, but with a few reorientations, it's usable as captivate rom.

4. There are no official releases for either phone, you must build from source. Instructions are on the CM forums.

Any other questions, I'm happy to answer. I just don't like when misinformation is wrongly spread.
[Captivate General] Rikusaki:
Sorry about that. Heh heh. I apologize for that thread. :p
[Captivate General] rob989_69:
So couple questions.

1 If it's a full ROM did you have to convert NAND to EXT4 as well? My understanding was the WHOLE file system on NS was EXT4.

2 If you did have to convert it, have you tried going back to any other "regular" ROM's?

Thanks for the information/clarification. Honestly though, I think it's unfair to single out DG, he's helped alot of people here. If he is wrong he's wrong but no need to hate.
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
It's okay, I understand the interest and excitement. :p Just have to check your facts before posting.
[Captivate General] DrDubzz:
I would just like to add, do want
[Captivate General] ytt3r:
Thanks for starting a new thread, as you said, clusterf*ck. Out of curiosity, as I'm still syncing repo, did you reorient the kernel yourself or did it come with the repo?
[Captivate General] designgears:
misinformation? They are using supercurios kernel work to boot it. (i said KERNEL not initram, where the dual boot comes from)

If there is any further work being done by codeworkx and others, its in private., but I can tell you there is NO chatter in the dev channel, hasn't been in some time.
[Captivate General] ytt3r:
Can't we just get over everything and stop with the petty insults... This thread is going downhill already, lets try and keep it clean.
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
1. Nope, everything is mounted as yaffs2. When you flash the "initial" zip, it creates all the partitions.

2. You can, but you must either use "repartition" in Odin, or use the one click to stock.

And I know, I was just joking about. I can certainly edit that out if it offends him.

All I've done is add the headset logic fix, buttons are correctly mapped.

They may be using it, but they've done a ton of work on it. Are you looking at sc's repo, or coolya's? Cause coolya's is the one with CM7.

EDIT: DG, it's not a dual boot. They may be using his kernel as a base, but a lot of the work is from there.

[Captivate General] SnakeHaveYou:
I've a question..

If the CM/SGSTeam's Source is Open Source.. Why the team will piss off if we compile from it source, and post it?

BTW, it's just a question..
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
Okay, I apologize for the DG jab in the OP. It's removed now.
[Captivate General] designgears:
just got owned, keep reading...
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
Because when stuff doesn't work, people ***** at them and they have to fix it, taking time away from deving. That, on top of the captivate not even being an officially supported device.

Good luck.

You're looking at the wrong repo. most of the work went into the kernel repo, here --> https://github.com/coolya/android_kernel_samsung

EDIT: Do you honestly think there has been no progress?
[Captivate General] ytt3r:
They probably will get mad. Honestly, even though its open, there are still moral issues. Its basically taking someones hard work and passing it off as your own, because you know that people will credit the one who built it and made it freely available.
[Captivate General] designgears:
UGH, why do they keep changing repos... :mad:

aright, previous comments about progress retracted...

apologies TheEscapist :cool:
[Captivate General] designgears:
They wont get mad, cant get made, you are more then welcome to compile and post it.

Would be nice to wait for them to complete it and post themselves...
[Captivate General] TheEscapist:
Thank you for removing them, but no worries. :p

The android repo really just points to all the other repos, so CM base stuff, their kernel stuff, etc.
[Epic 4G General] t.lynn.c:
I've only had this Epic for almost a month and am very satisfied with it so far. But its getting pretty old looking on xda everyday to see someone new complaining about not having Froyo. You got what you paid for people, you bought a epic with 2.1 eclair on it, do you buy windows xp and then when windows 7 comes out you complain they won't upgrade you for free? There will always be something better and something new out there or up and coming you can't expect companies to sit there and keep working on things of the past they have to make money as well and they have to compete with each other and try to stay on top. I'm not saying I don't think they shouldn't release it for us I'm just saying you realy can't blame them for moving on with other phones as well. And if you think 2.2 is gonna make your phone that much better then go get a vibrant from tmobile bc I put 2.2 on my girlfriends phone last week and it didn't do much of anything for it, its just software sure your battery is a little better or the system runs a little smoother your not changing what you physically have the hardware is what it is and you knew all of this before buying the phone and if you didn't then you had 30 days to do some research and return it to sprint.

[Epic 4G General] cozmonot:
Alright, I'll bite.

most of us did not buy our epic's having seen a forum full of people dissatisfied with samsung's ability to upgrade their phones. I for one bought my phone on launch day. August 31st 2010. It was a sunny day, there was a nice breeze. I was young without a care in the world. I saw a phone with very formidable hardware and better yet, a promise from samsung that the device would see 2.2 in the very "near" future.

Now I don't know what you paid for your phone, but I paid retail price plus tax. If I had known I was actually paying for an education about what it exactly it means to buy a samsung phone I would have looked elsewhere.

that being said, theres one thing I can't stand and that is people such as yourself who waited until after people bought the phone and realized that and official update in a timely fashion not likely, accepted that risk, and then come here to rub it in the face of those who care about things like kernel sources, and custom roms to tell us about how we should all be as smart as you with your divine phone selecting savvy. I can't say that I speak for everyone, but I can certainly speak for myself when I tell you sincerely to gtfo.

yours truly, cozmonot :)
[Epic 4G General] t.lynn.c:
Ok to someone like yourself I understand that you did not know what you were getting yourself into and I'm not trying to say that someone such as yourself that bought the phone right when it came out doesn't have a right to be mad. I never said I had waited to buy this phone for any reason its just when I see ppl on here that say they just got the phone and now are mad they don't have 2.2 yet its disturbing. I understand we need kernals and source to make better roms and things, I myself am running Nebula and have been since the first week of owning this phone, so as with the rest of you I myself would like it so my rom can be further upgraded. The main thing I was trying to get at is that complaining about how we don't have it isn't getting us it I did not mean disrespect for someone like yourself and I don't think I have any better taste for phones than the rest of us we all chose this phone for whatever reasons but I don't think anyone chose it bc it was going to have 2.2

Sent from my Epic with Seven Sisters
[Epic 4G General] cozmonot:
I agree in that people complaining here doesn't really accomplish much. Apologies, I probably shouldn't reply to threads when I'm angry and tired.

I think we need to make our voice heard by sprint and samsung if we want things to actually happen, and complaining to people in the same position can't make things any better. just look at the vibrant owners who threatened a lawsuit and got the mainstream blogs to post about the vibrant not having froyo, didnt they get the update like a week later? I agree with what you said in your second post and I wish I had known about what I was getting myself into back in August when i signed on the dotted line.
[Epic 4G General] rygran87:
Actually, I did. Also, because of the slide out keyboard. If I wanted a phone forever stuck with Eclair, I'd have kept my Moment.

EDIT: I am not stuck on Eclair, but there are people who don't know about rooting and custom ROMs.
[Epic 4G General] Jayavarman:
Relax. |
[Epic 4G General] t.lynn.c:
OMGrant this is very true I should probably keep my mouth shut sometimes but its just not easy and that's where the rant part came in...

Rygran87 I really don't know what to say about your unfulfilled promises you must have been happy with the samsung moment to buy another samsung tho...

Sent from my Epic with Seven Sisters
[Epic 4G General] Protoroll:
I bought the phone because of the hardware and because it was stated that 2.2 would be coming soon. I don't understand how people like you can just accept that You have the phone with the best hardware specs on the market at the moment and not be pissed that it doesn't have 2.2. While I agree that coming on xda and starting multiple threads on if FroYo is out is not the most productive way of dealing with the problem, bending over and submitting that because you paid money for the device and knew that it had 2.1 on is just a cop out.

To answer your question on what does FroYo add, here is just a few.

- What about all of the people who spent $30 to $50 on official samsung docks and can't even use it to the fullest without FroYo. IT EVEN SAYS ON DAMN PACKAGING THAT FULL FUNCTIONALITY WILL BE UNLOCKED WITH THE 2.2 UPDATE.

- What about bluetooth voice dialing, JIT, flash, and the updated google apps that come with 2.2, not to mention the speed increase. The FroYo update for the Vibrant doesn't count in this case because everyone knows that update was rushed because of the lawsuit business, and that lead to a bugged release.

And if none of that convinces you, the fragmentation of the market is the best example I can give. Do you know how annoying it is to find an app that you know your phone has more than enough power to run, but it won't even show up in the market because it only works on FroYo and up? IT'S THE ****ING PITS DUDE. For example there is this game that some (ex-sony I think) devs called Lame Castle that I really want to play, but it won't work on galaxy s phones without FroYo. Look it up on the market with Epic, it won't even show up. Now go on appbrain and its there clear as day. There are numerous examples of this, but this is the one that affected me that most.

So when you say that we should have know better and should not be upset, all I can say is that I hope you continue to enjoy the anal that samsung and sprint have given you so far. There's a lot more to come.
[Epic 4G General] rygran87:
It was my first Android. It was cool at first, but just wanted FroYo and refused to get the Evo because the screen sucks and no keyboard.
[Epic 4G General] t.lynn.c:
I would have to say my favorite part about what you said was when you said Froyo for vibrant was rushed and has bugs. Because that could be us, we could have a rushed crappy edition of froyo. I understand that it makes it better and we can't do somthings without but if your life won't go on because you can't play some game on your phone (unless somehow you've got a job doing mobile gaming) then it might be time to look at some new hobbies or just pay your way out of contract so you can go get a phone with froyo that will make you happy as a little kid in a candy shop. But it must not be that bad if your willing to wait it out and hope one day you will wake up and see an OTA.

Anyways android is a grey point right now as with your reference to XP you could pay to upgrade to vista/7 (driver / hardware supporting of course) where with android everything is kept under wraps so by the manufacturer until weeks or sometimes months after their "official" software is released and only then can some reverse engineer everything to get what they need to develop.

Hopefully the future of android can be like computer operating systems. Manufacturers only make drivers that way google can push out their own updates or at least give us the ability to do our own.
[Epic 4G General] t.lynn.c:
You are very right as far as being able to pay for updates I was just meaning more of on a free level for that analogy, but yes very good point. And I too hope that it will someday be that easy.

[Epic 4G General] Protoroll:
About the Vibrant, their is no excuse for that buggy release at such a late push date. The carriers have had FroYo since November and and have taken their own sweet time working on it. To add insult to injury, Every other carrier with a Galaxy S phone has pushed out FroYo since November. They even started getting 2.2.1 about two weeks ago. Even the number five carrier in the states, U.S. Cellular, has had FroYo out for its captivate out for about a month and a half now. And guess what? That update went off without a hitch. I also like how you were able to boil down my argument into the my statement about Lame Castle, which in my circles is very important because I'm going to school for that kind of thing, and Vibrant update which I would have even if I didn't have months of knowledge on the situation here and everywhere else that Galaxies are sold. You just get your phone and feel like preaching to me on how I should just take this ****. I bought this phone months ago knowing I would be with it for two years and expecting on Samsung to hold up to their statement of by the end of the year. Its a month into 2011 and still nothing. If you find your epic fine on 2.1, all power to you. But their are people with docks, people that want to make hands free calls while on the road, and people who just want full access to the market, who have all the right in the world to complain over this mess.

Note: Make multiple threads on XDA is NOT the way to go about it though people.
[Epic 4G General] t.lynn.c:
I never said there was an excuse for it but I do like your note, bc that was one thing I was trying to get at in my original statement is topic after topic about how we don't have 2.2. And I said earlier to a guy its not the people such as yourself that have had th phone and been expecting the update its ppl that haven't had their phone long and are starting thread after thread asking or complaining about 2.2.
