Please note, I think adb was just disconnecting and the solution was simply to type in...

adb connect 127.0.0.1

Thanks
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GazaIan:
I want to flash CM7, but everytime I try flashing Clockwork recovery 3, it ends up staying at 2.5.1.2. What am I doing wrong? I tried flashing it from ROM Manager and that didn't help, and I don't know if I can flash it with the fastboot method since I'm using CWR already. What can I do?

Additional notes: Right now, I'm running CM6 RC2. And my phone looks sexy.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OptLynx:
Like you I also came across that issue but trying to install kernel in Ice Glacier. Now what you want to do is install it manually via console. Check my other thread all you need is the flash image and clockworkmod recovery. I myself flashed ClockworkMod 3.0.0.0 as other howoto failed and True's didn't stick.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmwils3:
true's method seems to be broken for now, but he has posted that he will be looking into the issue as soon as he get home.

Go here,

And hit on the link to download the cwm 3.xxxx

Once the file is downloaded use root explorer, navigate to /sdcard/downloads/ and find the recovery. Make sure that it shows as .img and not as .zip. if it is a zip then unzip to get the .img file :)

Select the recovery and change the name to some easier name like f.e cwmrec3 (nnow u will have a cwmrec3.img file).

Move it to /sdcard (root) for ease of method

Open terminal emulator and do

Su (enter) (# will change for $)

flash_image recovery /sdcard cwmrec3.img

Wait for it to go to the next line.

Reboot to recovery and ur text will now be orange. You now haz recovery 3.xxxx

Also, note that if u enter rom manager it will still say that you have cwm 2.xxx that does not matter though as long as ur recovery txt is orange and not green

the fastboot method will work if you have CWM 3.5.1.3 already. I did that this morning, and it worked like a charm.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
so I was able to do the easy cw method installing the zip from recovery then choosing 2.5.1.4, but after a few runs with the latest builds of CM7 i was having major issues with my mobile data connection jumping from H to 3G, each time lagging out my connection and making streaming videos, etc impossible to play. So I reflashed to stock, and my H returned to normal. So i thought I'd give it another shot, rooted, downloaded ROM Manager, flashed to 2.5.1.2 smooth, then tried the above method. When I tried to load the 2.5.1.4 in ROM manager, it said "An error occurred while flashing your recovery." So I tried the terminal, and no matter how I rename the file, and I know I followed the instructions flawlessly, it says flash_image: not found. So while ROM Manager seems completely capable of flashing to the 2.5.1.2 version, nothing seems to work to get me past it. What could I be missing?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] everest.deth:
Thats because you flashed back to stock and stock roms do not have "flash_image" on /system/bin

Download this

http://db.tt/Rv63e76

Use root explorer and paste it to /system/bin

Try terminal again

[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
So I was offered the following phone for my Captivate and I am not sure what device is the better out of:

My Captivate, running 2.2 (Official, Canada), locked to Rogers.

His Desire Z, running 2.2 (Official), Unlocked.

Should I trade the guy? Both phones are in like new condition, though I still have my box and he does not.

Is the Captivate more powerful then the Desire Z?

What is the better phone in your opinion? I need help and the guy wants to trade at 10:30am tomorrow...can't decide! I am so torn and know NOTHING about the Desire Z.
[Captivate General] snaai8:
Only take the desire Z if you want a qwerty keyboard badly, otherwise choose the captivate.

Sense is laggy as hell and they dont have developers like supercurio voor lagfix, sound etc. Also I dont kbow about the screen.. We have Samoled, the Z had slcd, which makes our display a nicer, brighter display. It also could be a faulthy model, in the early releases there was a production error which caused the slider system to crumble down.

Sooo would you take the desire Z only for its keyboard and the laggy sense?
[Captivate General] SeenNotScene:
I believe the Desire Z is actually called the G2 made by HTC.

This link will take you to phonescoop to compare the two phones.

My opinion for what its worth, stick with the 4 inch super amoled screen. Nothing really compares to it right now as far as deep blacks and rich colors. If the screen doesn't sway you, you could look at the processor. The captivate weighs in with 1000MHz, the G2 with 800Mhz. Not to mention I'm not a fan of slide out keyboards. Up to you though :D
[Captivate General] rnewton01:
the screen on your captivate is far nicer than that of the desire z. Its a nice phone, a guy at my work has one, but when put beside my cappy, it looks like the always in super dim mode or something.
[Captivate General] TommyZee:
IMO keep the Captivate :cool:
[Captivate General] Sarcoid:
I would not trade. You know nothing about the other phone and have not given any reasons for getting rid of the Captivate. Why trade to another phone that you know nothing about?
[Captivate General] FrozenComa:
Stick with the Captivate and put a Design Gears rom on it. With Perception 10.1 I'm getting amazing speed, gps accuracy, and battery life.
[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
Well this is how this all came about...

I love my Captivate, my wife does not really like hers. So I posted an ad saying that I wanted to trade a Captivate for either an iphone 4 or a BlackBerry Torch...

This guy wrote me, offering the Desire Z. He doesn't even want the phone for personal use. He is 50+ years old and works for a publishing company. His company just did some work with 5 Smart phones and he sold the rest other than the Desire Z.

We have been talking all day and he sent some pics...the phone still has the plastic on the keyboard, its been used for a whole 5 minutes. He wants to trade so he can do some stuff with the Captivate, as they just sell the phones for whatever they can get afterwards.

So yeah...its like new, but so is mine. I was never interested in the Desire Z but it looked cool so I thought I would gather some opinions. Thats all : )
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
Well if the desire z is the htc g2 then I have an opinion.

First off I have the captivate and love it and I would keep it over the g2 for 2-3 reasons which ill get to.

I got a g2 for my wife and she's had it for about 2 months. I play with it all the time because there's something about it that attracts me to it. Idk I think I just really like the design. Its a sweet phone for sure. the numbers on quadrant and linpack for the g2 (stock) are way better, linpack 32 and quadrant 1620, if that really means anything. 800mhz is no big deal really considering were on this forum and everyone has custom roms and they have roms for the g2 that overclock to 1.8ghz. The battery life on the g2 is better than the captivate I don't care what numbers say the g2 goes the distance. The picture quality is better. Slide out keyboard is pretty cool to me but I know some don't care. But typing on my phone right now I only see the little tiny text window cause the virtual keyboard and the g2 with the physical keyboard you get the whole screen which is great. I personally think the g2 looks cooler but don't get me wrong my cap is sexy. Maybe some other reasons I like it can't think of right now.

As for the captivate and reasons why I would keep it. Well me and this phone have a special bond and id just feel bad disowning for it another lol. Ok real reasons. Screen of course is better. Gorilla glass. Seems more durable. Way more picture options, way more...I mean way more. Better hd video quality. Easier to root and probably put roms on too. More internal memory. Usb cover, I really think that is just going above and beyond, way to go samsung. Bigger screen size is nice but is gonna use more battery. Micro sd slot is accessible without removing battery. Maybe some other reasons for this but I can't think of em right now. I guess that was more than 2-3 , whatever.

I've been a loyal follower of dg's roms but recently switched to paragon 5.0 and am loving it all around and battery life is great and it looks frickin sweet. Go green.

As for you wife. She probably would like the g2 better mine does but as for you idk its your call they're both sweet but you might regret losing all the great things I described about the capt.

Oh yeah g2 has a nice flash and real gps.
[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
Really awesome reply man, very insightful and I want to thank you for that...

I think if I got rid of the Cap I would regret it. I researched for weeks, tons of videos and reviews, and when I finally got the Cap it was amazing. I am drawn to the look of the Desire 2 or g2 whatever you want to call it, but I would definatly miss the Cap.

I am running official 2.2 but would like to run a custom ROM, I just have no clue how to go about learning it. Is it difficult? I do have an exstensive back ground in electronics (16 years computer repair, 2 years CG Development with Maya, etc) Would messing with custom ROMS be very difficult? I just have never looked into it lol
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
It can take a while to learn if your new. If I was gonna tell you in a quick summary... you should first figure out how to get into download mode and recovery mode. If you dont know just ask ill tell ya. Pick the rom you want put it on your internal sd. Get the clockwork recovery file on your internal sd too and renamed it to "update". You can find it here somewhere if not ask someone. When you have the rom you want and clockwork recovery file on your sd you get your phone into recovery mode select reinstall packages (power button selects and volume moves up and down) select reinstall packages again and it will put you in clockwork recovery. Then go to "apply/ choose zip from sd" select the rom you picked and that's basically it.
[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
I can get into those modes no problem, but will I have a problem if my phone is a version 10?
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
No idea what a version 10 is but if you can't get onto those modes I think you would be good.
[Captivate General] snaai8:
There should be a nice sticky tellibg you how to flash a rom ;)

Otherwise it id almost always in the rom post! Just use the search or look around a bit and if you have questions than ask! I have a really small amount of knowledge of coding but this is my 4th smartphone and I flashed them all, so it shouldn't be too dificult ;)

Happy flashing~
[Captivate General] FrozenComa:
If you go into the captivate development forum there's a sticky thread near the top that includes instructions and videos on how to rom.
[Captivate General] aridoasis:
IMHO, roadrash7 hit the nail on the head.

I went from a Vibrant (BELL), to a Desire Z (coz the Vibrant kept dying), then to Captivate for the reasons roadrash7 presented, and I've never regretted my decision. Except for the GPS part. Call me lucky, but the GPS on my Captivate gets an accurate lock under 30 seconds even when I'm not on WIFI.
[Captivate General] Sarcoid:
Why would you regret trading away the captivate? I thought your wife is the one that wants to trade away her captivate. You need to find out what she doesn't like about the captivate and determine if the desire z has what she wants.

For flashing, you're comfortable around computers so you'll be ok once you read everything. Follow the instructions for what you want to do and you'll soon be comfortable customizing your device.
[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
Yeah my GPS is great on my Captivate too.
[Captivate General] gunstar3035:
Yeah I checked with her first and she didn't want the Desire Z. I don't think she likes Android because its so customizable...I know that doesnt make sense but she wants something simple like her old iphone 3gs. Its so stupid IMO

I downloaded the gingerbread launcher off the market place for her last night, and downloaded some fun social widgets for her. I hope she might enjoy the phone a bit more now...I dont know, I am trying to show her she can really make the phone her own, you know?
[Captivate General] rnewton01:
since you are running rogers 2.2 i'd recommend to get started you do the following...

do not use the odin one-click methods out there to return to stock like a lot of the posts say to do. This is for ATT users... You will lose your 3 button recovery. This can be fixed however. Easiest way to get started flashing with rogers is follow directions i made in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925201

If none of this makes much sense right now, just do some research, and know that its not as difficult as it may appear.
[Captivate General] bames:
for me it would be a no brainer

keep the captivate.

I want to manage two gvoice accounts on my nexus (work and personal), so is there any way to do it. its mostly to manage the texts. or does anyone know of another 3rd party google voice app that does everything the native app does?
[Defy General] gubshi:
Hey,

Some days ago i flashed the UK 2.2 ROM onto my defy, everythings working fine, just applyed the marketfix.

Now a friend of mine got his defy today and we flashed the same rom to his, and everything seems to work - except the camcorder.

The camera-app, for taking photos, is working as it should. Now here's what we've noticed so far:

- both apps produce a clicking noise of the camera, which my defy doesn't do

- if we set the resolution to QVGA or CIF, the camcorder is working correctly

doesn't matter if we start with the camera and switch, or start with the camcorder-shortcut - it's just clicking, everything turns black for a second, and that's it. Any ideas? It's kind of strange to see it working on my phone, but not on his. Btw under his battery-cover it says "BT 33", mines a "B 9".

:confused:

edit: After flashing for the second time, i realised it is the "Market_Apps_Camera_Mod_Haptic_Mod" that breaks the camcorder. So the solution is very simple.

The Marketfix for 2.2 is available alone, but not the haptic-fix, for the solution here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=936313 ) is resulting in a bootloop, as for some other users, too.

does anyone have the unmodfied "framework-res.apk" WITH haptic fix enabled, or maybe a .zip of the haptic fix to apply via recovery? that would be great!
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
I changed the values in the lines you posted, and all it did was make the backlight stay on longer?

EDIT: I copied the PowerManagerService.smali over, and the lights on the screen work, but getting soft reboots.
[Captivate Android Development] buddy17:
flashed 5.6 tonight...seriously, this is the greatest feature ever!! this is great
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
swap out all the powermanager smali files in /com/android/server, theres like 20?something of them, i probably should have made that a little clearer.

not just PowerManagerService.smali, but copy all that start with PowerManager.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
edited OP a little, a little clearer now.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
You can probably only copy the PowerManagerService.smali, if you changed the lines and references.

It's 12,000 lines long, should be fun.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
Ya you can. You can get it working on i9000 2.2 just by swapping jpo powermanagerservice.smali with a captivate version. I tried doing that way at first using compare it. I was swapping lines for like 12 hours, had it working button lights everything, but it would soft reboot every few minutes and I just got tired of doing it that way.

Once you have the files all copied over, then you can adjust the light time.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
What the hell is this doing on the second page????

This completes all i9000 ROMs
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
I was wondering the same thing, some even voting low *'s. WTH is wrong with people

Edit: and cezar- let me know how it works with js3 I didn't try it. Only problem could be libaudio's causing soft reboot when you press end call button, but was only tested with jpy with js3 libaudios and phone.apk and util.
[Captivate Android Development] connexion2005:
Working great so far on the JS3 built Paragon RC 5.0 rom. Just took a phone call and ended it with no reboot. Running the default .zip file offered...

AWESOME WORK. I'll be making a video to display this awesome functionality! Now I think the next step is for someone to write an apk to allow for a little control on this and adjust the parameters. That would be super cool!

Edit: Tossed you some beer money!
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Guessing that his framework files are not JS3 if that is working. The logcat shows a call to a function that only exists in JS3 that is now missing because of swapping the files in the dex.
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
I told you! :D
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Does this still break phone call recording?
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
On my jpy rom yes. I had to get rid off the libaudios that support call recording and put back the jpy libs that freeze the phone when you stop recording

Not tested on js3 (by me)- sounds like dg may know
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
I am using the Rogers file for our 9010 rom ( witch has the same issues as the i9000)

but I noticed something

line 67 didnt need to be corrected

I have not same layout as you described

me is line 93 and here is what ti says

93_ .field private static final SHORT_KEYLIGHT_DELAY_DEFAULT:I = 0xbb8

also these lines were nto the exact same either .. weird isnt it ?

325_ const/16 v2, 0xbb8

4538_ const/16 v5, 0xbb8

5643_ const/16 v2, 0xbb8

I also noticed the same value was in line 77

77_ .field private static final SAMSUNG_PHONECALL_KEYLIGHT_DELAY:I = 0xbb8

not worth changing but some ppl might want to ...

on a side note for th elife of me I didnt understand what youmeant by do not copy decompile recompile , took me a while to figure out you were walkin about what was pasted in the 'code'

Edit :

I dont know witch files I was using but they were clearly not jl1 I used yours inside your dex files and swap everything works perfect thx .
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
It's a very dirty mod. Think dropping a nuke on a sniper. But I haven't had a problem yet.

If there were problems I would not have posted it. There's only one other way to do it...
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
I know.

But the last time I did a mod that was quick + dirty, it dropped a call 3 weeks later. Just saying. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:

[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
but i fixed it 22 days ago, its been in testing for 3 weeks and a day to make sure it doesnt get that 3 week dropped call bug

[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
The armani files are very similar to the rogers ones (I was comparing the andromeda services.jar to the stock rogers services.odex)

To get it to work we only needed to replace PowerManagerService$3.smali. But it was not working consistently. We got it fixed by replacing also InputMethodManagerService$ScreenOnOffReceiver.smali.

And, of course, the time constants you posted in the op, in PowerManagerService.smali.

Thanks for this info!
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
OK, the call recording is broken on JS3 as well. Any way to get these 2 working well together? I rather keep GBs app than give up on call recording. Proved to be extremely useful when I didn't have a pen and paper
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
That is a feature that I never used but I would love to have, just in case. Armani does not seem to have call recording and the rogers jl1 probably neither. It will be fun to find the differences there and add it to one big jar.

I'm guessing you guys have an option to start recording in phone.apk?

I'm not running jpy nor js3 now so I can't look how it works.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Check out my rom's video review, you will see how it works there.

The feature comes from the chinese rom, nzkp2, and it was "ported" over to european roms by copying Phone.apk, PhoneUtil.apk and 2 audio libraries.

[Captivate Android Development] SwiftJudgement:
Not a huge deal, but after the phone goes to sleep, the lights don't activate until after I've pressed a capacitive button (home, back, etc.). After that, a touch on the screen will bring them back.

I realize its probably impossible to fix, just thought I'd post to see if others were having similar problems.

No problems here. They come on as soon as I unlock the phone from sleep.
