[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _SpAiK_:
Hello to everybody, I've just arrived from the Xperia X10 forum with my new Desire and I would like to know were I could find info about rooting and flashing new firms. Also, what do you think are the best roms available?

Thanks in advance.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
The stuff is here.

Rooting tutorials

UnrEVOked is the easist way, tbh.

Best ROM? Different for everyone.

If you want 2.2 Froyo with extras, try LeeDroid

For DHD ports try InsertCoin, RCMix, ReflexTSense.

I did not try the gingerbread ROMs yet, mainly because of the bugs (waiting till an official release).

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] roumenjr:
I had a problem rooting back my T-Mobile Vibrant after it got un-rooted when I upgraded to 2.2 from 2.1 using Samsung Kies mini. Tried 4 different procedures that the phone ignored..... very frustrating!!! Then, I ran into SuperOneClickv1.6.5, it mentions it was tested on the Captivate. If you need more assurance, I found it to be the easiest, successful root after my lockup. Download (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682) and open the program in Windows, hit Root, once it says "waiting for device", connect your Vibrant (make sure debugging is on) and let it work. Donate and thanks to the Developer for the excellent work.

Cheers!!!
[Captivate Accessories] Phytrax:
I'm gonna start off short with this and add more as I get more use out of the phone.

First of all, I was hoping (though not optimistically) that I could fit this battery inside my phone case if I left off the battery door. This is definitely not going to happen. I've read that this battery and replacement door increases the phone from 11mm thick to 17mm. I've measured and verified this, but holding the phone in your hand it seems like about double the original thickness. Really this doesn't bother me except I'm going to have to modify a case to fit now.

Also the battery door that came with it is plastic. I was concerned this might affect reception since the OEM door is reported to be part of the antenna system, maybe for WiFi. but so far I have noticed no problem at all. I'm still concerned the tabs will break of of this door easily if dropped since they are plastic. I also am a little concerned these could break in my jeans pocket when I'm squatting down since extra thickness puts more pressure on the phone.

Initial impressions of battery life are fantastic. It had gotten to the point where my phone would die between 2-4pm after charging all night and using it pretty heavily during the day. If I tried to watch a movie around even 10am, the battery would die before the movie finished. This morning I watched a 2hr movie with the Mugen battery and still had over 80% battery left. Amazing. It's such a startling difference that I now wonder if my OEM batter was worn out more than I had thought.

A couple of final details. The buttons on the side of the phone are just slightly harder to find with the new battery door. This is not any issue after getting used to it but just an observation. The fit and finish of the battery door is very good. I did notice a slight difference in the paint color of the battery door compared to the back of the phone, but I used to work in the paint industry. I don't think most people would notice or care.

********UPDATE*************

I had cut some slits in my Amzer case to allow it to fit the extended battery. This actually worked pretty well and had a really nice feel in hand. However, it this face fits kind of loosely to begin with and has a lot of grip, making it hard to get in and out of pocked. This problem does not really get worse, but certainly isn't any better with the bigger battery. Unless you have pretty big pockets it's just too annoying. Without the case I have no problems sliding the smooth phone in and out of my pocket and it still has a better feel in hand than the stock shape. I just hope I don't drop it.

The capacity is still excellent after a week or so. I have noticed that charge time is quite long though. A full charge is taking me around 6 hrs. This is with a aftermarket cable, but I believe it is still charging at 1A. I will use the stock cable tonight to confirm.
[Captivate Accessories] Phytrax:
Added an update.
[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
please add some pics!

and how long is it lasting with heavy / light use?
[Captivate Accessories] Phytrax:
I posted some usage info already, but I get almost 2 days with light/medium use. I can still get below 10% with 18hrs of heavy use... texting, reading, a little YouTube, music, WAP, and web browsing. I used to have a dead battery by 3pm using it like that, now it lasts all day.

Hey, I'm having some trouble finding a full AOSP 2.3 Gingerbread ROM with zero modifications to styling. I obviously want one that has all the necessary drivers for the hardware, but I don't want "extras". I've seemingly tried them all, and the closest to full AOSP I could find was bcnice's ROM, which he hasn't updated in months. The most up to date, closest to AOSP I've found is the Evervolv 1.0.1b4, but I'm getting tired of flashing the stock font pack every time I try a new update, and I don't like that is has its "own launcher".

Are there any fully functional 2.3 ROMs available that are 100% AOSP, or does everyone add their recommended programs and styling? It feels like I'm getting a carrier update lol.
[EVO 4G General] dills2214:
What you are looking for just doesn't exist yet. Closest thing available are the Roms you already tried or this one below, but many things don't work yet like front cam, gps, etc....

[EVO 4G General] thanamesjames:
Just out of curiosity, why isn't there a 100% AOSP rom? Is it because there is little dev interest? Would it be very difficult to do a straight port? It seems like maybe CM would release a straight port before they started adding their stuff... but I'm a newb and unsure of how the process works really.
[EVO 4G General] Cicatrize:
I'm using the SalvageMod one mentioned earlier now, and it's VERY stock. The only things that are different that I can see are some custom wallpapers (doesn't really count as not-AOSP) and the semi-transparent notification drop down.

hi Guys,

I have di11i's ROM installed, 5.6 stripped, on a Samsung Captivate.

I installed ROM manager, flashed clockwork from there. Chose Galaxy S Captivate as my phone. (should I have chosen I9000??!!)

then I clicked boot into recovery, and in recovery menu, it said "signature verification failed" did not install multi-CSC thing, and got stuck there!!

I unsinstalled ROM manager....

would my recovery menu be ok now if I try again? (scared to try)

what went wrong??!

thank u for the support!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phoenix2217:
Hey Dude,

I'm guessing its coming up as 3e recovery? If so, you need to take the file I'm attaching, unzip it and place it in the /system/bin folder. Reboot and you should be set.

Just to be clear:

Unzip the file and place it on your phone.

Use root explorer.

Make file system RW

Copy the file to /system/bin

Reboot!

You should be all set from here.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ytt3r:
What Phoenix said is right. Also, this doesn't belong in development :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mengbo:

use the power menu, then select recovery ...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ap1618:
indeed, my concern is, did I screw up anything related to that by getting this error, or was that error only because of trying through ROM manager?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You can't, you need the recovery image to flash a new ROM. Just use unrEVOked, I gave you the link for the stock ROM so you can always go back to 100% stock if needed

I'll get this fixed when I get home tonight. It would appear that I uploaded apks from an unrelated project. These are actually cyanogen / aosp apps - the pics below are correct to what I uploaded though. These are ported from the Nexux S CM7.

I was bored this morning so I started porting the Nexus S Apps to the Vibrant. These are actually the cyano/aosp apps ported to Nexus S and then ported to Vibrant.

There really isn't much that is special about these, just another option.

I'm off to work in a few minutes so here are a couple. I will add to this OP more as they are done.

Here are the Nexus S MMS and Music player - I have not yet added lockscreen support to music player.

Using adb or root explorer, push these to system/app - to be sure you can go back to your stock apps if you want you should rename your existing mms.apk to mms.apk.bak and musicplayer.apk to musicplayer.apk.bak
