Go in boot loader mode select recovery once you see the android question mark hold up and power then from there choose install update. Zip or install update,you'll know what I'm talking about.Then manually flash the update

If the sd is wiped then you'll have to fastboot push the update.zip,2.3.4 or whatever update you want to flash
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
Those on stock unrooted never have to wait for the update but can always manually flash it in stock recovery
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
If you ever find odin files for I9020t please let me know,thanks

sent from my nexus s running nscollab
[Nexus S Android Development] xsteven77x:
Yep we need it bad.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
I love odin got me out of some very bad situations back on the old vibrant day's
[Nexus S Android Development] jboxer:
When I try to install an update with Fastboot it says I am missing android-info.txt and android-product.txt files. You need special vesions of the signed roms to flash that method. The internal sd is completely screwed. When I go into recovery and try to factory reset it cannot mount any of the internal memory except the cache.

Also, I cannot find a method to push using fastboot. Only update and that has the two missing file problem I mention above.
[Nexus S Android Development] djsonar:
I used this odin on my i920t

[Nexus S Android Development] jboxer:
Was your bootloader already unlocked? I tried that and after the image was sent to the device, the device displayed image verification complete and then just sat there. It refused to flash the image because the bootloader was locked. Download mode shows a screen about unlocking the bootloader and not the Android guy with a shovel.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
Did you try a jig and I hate to say this and hope I'm wrong but it sounds like his sd is bad

If you simply tried to unlock the bootloaders and you did it manually it should have been easy no problem
[Nexus S Android Development] jboxer:
Yes, I went into download mode with both a jig and holding down both volume keys while plugging in the usb cable. What I get is the attached screen with a message about unlocking the bootloader, not the Android bot with a shovel. Also, Odin connects and pushes the images, the phone verifies the images (feedback on device) but then nothing else happens. The image is never flashed. You can see that it is different than the normal unlocking bootloader screen as there is no YES or NO selection available.

Also, when you go into recovery the sd cannot be mounted so that is a concern.

Yes, I have unlocked many bootloaders in my time and have never seen it refuse to unlock before. I verified he could get into Fastboot mode and thought it would be a quick fix. But after I got the correct drivers loaded and issued the "fastboot oem unlock" command you get the normal screen about unlocking the bootloader, select yes and pressed power, and then nothing. The device just hangs until you pull the battery and the bootloader remains locked. Does unlocking the bootloader require the use of the internal sd? If yes, then I believe he is screwed. I am also very experienced with Odin and have never seen the phone not flash the files once Odin has sent them over. It is all very strange.
[Nexus S Android Development] djsonar:
Yes it was unlocked.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
I do have a very bad feeling that the sd could be bad when you choose unlock it should have wiped the sd following a reboot but it hangs while trying to wipe and it doesn't want to mount

I went through some BS with my buddy's stock 2.3.4 turning on when its off and then plugin it in to charge

While trying to fix and many Google searches I tan across many complaints about ****ty sd,I eventually got it by manually flashing stock 2.3.4 update.zip and then fastboot unlock and superuser followed by a rom
[Nexus S Android Development] jboxer:
How did you get 2.3.4 to flash? I have tried flashing stock roms in fastboot but they are missing two files (android-info and android-product) needed to flash via fastboot.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
I google searched 2.3.4 update for nexus s renamed it to update.zip went into bootloaders mode choose recovery and when you see the android guy question mark the hold up volume and hit the power button that will take you to a blue letter screen where it will say install update.zip that's what you choose it might also say apply update.zip
[Nexus S Android Development] jboxer:
Cannot do that as cannot access the internal sd to move the update to. I have to flash rom in fastboot mode. In fastboot mode update it says the update.zip is missing android-info and android-product files and quits.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
You can't fastboot push the update.zip over on to the sd then flash in recovery

Lazy for governor sent from my nexus s/nscollab enter the matrix
[Nexus S Android Development] imperfection:
I'm having the same problems.

My bootloader is unlocked and I have CWM. I can get into CWM but can't access my sdcard. It won't mount, it won't do anything. My phone doesn't boot past the first kernel logo. I tried flashing a different version of CWM and nothing changed.

Now I just tried using Odin and it sat at "verify image (ipbl)... success." I'm guessing my sdcard is done?

This sucks, I don't think they'll repair it under warranty, I'm not even the original owner.
[Nexus S Android Development] jboxer:
That's the same issue I was having when I was trying to fix a Nexus S for someone. Your internal "sdcard" is corrupted and won't mount. Without that internal sdcard moutning you cannot do anything. The phone is toast. Get it replaced under warranty if you are so lucky. Try to relock your bootloader before sending it back in for warranty. Hopefully they don't go into recovery and see that you have CWM installed.

There is one last method to try but I could never find the required file. In fastboot you can flash an update.zip with "fastboot update update.zip" but I could never find a fastboot compatible rom package. It needs two extra files normally not found in a rom update.zip package. If you can find one you can try and see if that fixes the bad sd.
[Nexus S Android Development] qtwrk:
nice , and noop question , i never used Odin before , so ...

will/does flash firmware via Odin will format my SDcard ? cause i really wanna try Odin and get feel of it .

[Nexus S Android Development] zaherrrr:
thank you

thank you

but i need odin for nexus s full room fianl version
[Nexus S Android Development] de-evolution:
Um, here is what I use for my i9020T.

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?cj3mkyck4vrnkag

As for a final rom version? Im not sure what your looking for. This will restore your phone to an out of box state (GRH78) everything formatted. When you boot your phone Google Update will bring you to the current 4.x.x. Be VERY careful odin can be dangerous if used incorrectly. Also if you get an issue when first running the reset, then leave the bootloader field empty. Use Modem file for Phone field. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

I probably wont keep this in my mediafire for long so put it someplace safe. Although these files are also located in this thread

[Droid X General] eth3rton:
Just come from a HTC Incredible to the X and have a few questions :

I am still getting used to the X and have bought an Otterbox Defender to protect it. Its already a large phone and the Otterbox adds a considerable amount of bulk to it... are there any good alternatives? The holster is completely unusable IMHO (way to big). I want to keep it protected but don't know if I can live with the bulkiness of the Otterbox. I would also love to get a dock for the X but that is out of the question with the Otterbox...

I am still under the 30 day Verizon guarantee... I am reading about the rooting process and everyone makes sure to mention "use the permanent option when rooting". Permanent would mean no returning it to VZN.... right?

Why is there so little community support for the X? I couldn't keep up with the Roms on the Incredible. I wish I knew Java well enough to contribute....

If rooted can I get rid of the God awful unlock screen. I hate it... :p

I know I am one of the few but I would like to keep CityID. Can I install it back to the Rom if its been removed?

Thanks for any help!
[Droid X General] notalent-assclowns:
I made the same switch a couple of months back. Rooting is easy with the app and you can unroot just as easy if it needs to go back to Verizon, so no worries there. Roms are easy to install on the X, but with the locked bootloader, you are stuck with the release code that you are given, so no loading a full Gingerbread rom until it's pushed out to us. It's easy to remove apps like CityID once you are rooted. The process is the same as on the dInc.

Between the larger screen, much much better battery life, and the better physical build of the X, I can't see going back.

As far as the case, I keep my phone in my pocket, sometimes even with keys and never had a scratch yet. So, I'd go naked for a while and see how you like it. Maybe just a screen protector if anything.
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
You cabmn unroot to return to vzw if needed.

[Droid X General] brenneisec:
the droid x has less community support because of its locked bootloader. but we have found ways around it and if youre looking into flashing a ROM i would recommend liberty. especially because they just released 1.5
[Droid X General] eth3rton:
So do I use the temporary root or the permanent root if I am unsure if I will be keeping the phone? Thanks for the help everyone!
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
Even if you use the permanent root, you can still unroot the phone. If you are truly worried about rooting though, then just use the temporary. Upon rebooting the phone, you will no longer be rooted...
[Droid X General] cryogenic666:
If the Otterbox is too big, maybe try one of the Seidio cases? They're a lot thinner and won't add quite as much bulk to the phone. Yes, it is a HUGE phone but trust me, having that huge screen is absolutely worth it.
[Droid X General] jgraham4598:
I have a Seidio Innocase Surface combo that works great. It also barely adds any size to the X. I didn't have a case for more than 6 months and had no problems with it in my pocket. Motorola definitely built it well. You will get used to the size in no time. And like Cryo said, the screen is absolutely worth it.
[Droid X General] eth3rton:
How long does the z4mod take to run? Its been running for about 15 mins now.

Says "Running exploit in order to obtain root access..."

Thanks for the suggestions on the cases. Will look into them. The otterbox is going back... its just to big.
[Droid X General] cmdoptesc47:
I just came from the incredible too. Try Titanium Backup (root) for transferring apps like City ID from ROM to ROM.
[Droid X General] chefthomas99:
Do you have USB debugging on?
[Droid X General] cmdoptesc47:
Its probably just hanging. It shouldn't take longer than a couple of minutes. Just power off and on and then try it again
[Droid X General] eth3rton:
Finally got it. Now on to the custom Roms! :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakjak220:
Ok, so I've searched and couldnt find an exact answer...

when someone says a "full wipe" - I'm using amon Ra... and if I choose the "wipe data/Factory reset" option is that a "full wipe"?

Or do I need to do that plus wipe data/cache/Dalvik cache?

And another thing, is there something I'm missing about how to search for stuff... It seems I only get good results on a search when I try to post a thread and it does that automatic search thing... what am I missing? Is there a certain way to enter the terms where I'll get better results so I can avoid redundant posts?.... and I know this may sound like a stupid question but just help a fellow out please
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N_Jones:
My understanding is a full wipe is wiping data/factory reset and wiping data cache/dalvik cache.

This is what I do but with clockwork.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N_Jones:
Just another fyi. When switching between nightlies like cm7 is just wipe caches. If I switch between rom's I do a full wipe.

So far I have had very few issues.

I don't know where to ask this question at so sorry if its in wrong thread. Im currently on tmobile's 2gb data plan. I like to use my phone for internet tethering. What I want to know is what happens if I go over the 2gb limit. Will I lose data or will my speeds just slow down after 2gb. Also does tethering use up alot of data. Thank you
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
You pay $1.99 for each 2 Mb of data, if I recall correctly, or it may be for each Mb, over the limit.

The amount of bandwidth used depends on how much Internet access you do while tethered.

1) $30 unlimited data

2) $15 2GB

how can i get the $5 unlimited?
[HD2 General] stevedebi:
You can't. Those plans are not designed for smartphones. They do have a $10 plan, but do not offer it for the HD2.
[HD2 General] coldest~~~:
yes, there's a $10 plan called web2go that works with hd2 too. what you need to do is put your sim card into a dumbphone and call talk to a retention and not regular CSR, but you have to be at least with t-mo for 2 yrs to do it.

[Galaxy Tab General] Cyborgz:
Apologies if there are similar threads.

I am looking for an 'easy way' to root my GALAXY Tab. I have used the android z4root application but it didn't successfully root my device and just hung for a while and did nothing.

I would like to know if there is another way to root the device. I want to have root so that I can slightly overclock the CPU, for now I am not majorly interested in custom ROMS as I know there still in early stages of development.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks peeps!
[Galaxy Tab General] danielherrero:
Same here. Z4root crashes on my device with latest firmware
[Galaxy Tab General] red2erni:
I installed the tools with OCLF one click lag fix then ran z4root. You can also install busy box with Titanium before you get root.
[Galaxy Tab General] Cyborgz:
Thanks, but is there no tutorial on XDA that explains in detail how you can go about rooting your device. I've not be able to find anything with the search tool...?
[Galaxy Tab General] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
With z4root being so easy and available on so many devices, alot of the tutorials with adb push (or what ever) or how to manually root have disappeared with few exceptions. Now it seems people find work arounds to Get z4root to work as the alternative is more difficult. It took a very long time to root on my SGT. On my DroidX it took three times to work and root.

And to the poster above about OCLF. I did the Install ext2Tools. The OneClickLagFixv2.2+ became available. When I run the OCLF 2.2+ I get an error with code: Could not mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 onto /dbdata/rfsdata: mount: device or resource Busy.

I rooted with z4root first and then VZW Tab bootstraper by Koush CWM which converted to EXT4, then I ran OCLF EXT2Tools. Would this be an issue? Sorry I'm a bit new to SGT.

And I don't mean to hijack thread. Tia

Sorry it sounds very silly question but I tried different combinations:

etc..

It did not work..

And it does not have camera button , so those guide written for streak 5 may not apply on it?

Thanks for any inputs/sharing
[Dell Streak 7] dr.scribblez:
Answer.

Yes, I figured it out but the Streak 7 that I am trying to fix will not reboot even in recovery mode... crazy thing

1.Turn device off. If power button will not work, then use a paperclip to hit the soft reset key in the pin hole next to the Sd card slot.

2. Press and Hold the volume up key ( the plus + sign)

3. Keep holding Volume key and now hold Power key as well until Boot Mode displays.

Use the volume keys to select and power key to choose.
[Dell Streak 7] jiwengang:
Thanks!

The menu is

Boot up

Factory reset (erase user data)

Upgrade software through update.pkg in sdcard

Factor reset (erase user data and internal tablet storage)

Power off

hmmm.... which one is to take a backup image of it...
[Dell Streak 7] jiwengang:
Got it.

To enter into normal factor reset, press Volume Up as mentioned in previous replies.

To enter into fastboot, press Volume Down instead.
[Dell Streak 7] nledevil:

How do I get it out of fastboot mode? On my evo I would just pull the battery, but that is not possible on this device.
