There have been quite a few different updates as of late. So again make sure you are using updated bundles at the very least as they have the most up-to-date files. Additionally, you'll require the ts-calibration file if you are using the latest kernel package. If you haven't already made a backup of the contents of your microSD/internal storage, you might want to do so before you use the full bundle.

FRX05 thread

GBX0A thread

Additionally, if you don't have a Google account, you should be able to export your contacts to your microSD card. If you do, it would help if you enable google sync but that is ofc if you have a decent data plan.

i did what you said and downloaded the new package of gingerbread and froyo5

but for both i get the error failed to find rootfs unzip it ,job control turned off.

the thing is i tried putting different rootfs on too and its renamed to rootfs no ladder and i still get this error its reallypissing me off!!1
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Hmm, perhaps the process is somehow flawed? Are you positive you are using the current startup.txt file? Are you using anything additional such as rel_path=andboot or OC'ing? For troubleshooting purposes, we'll need to have a stock-like setup. Make sure you have extracted the full bundle to the root of your microSD

IMPORTANT

Make certain you are extracting the files to the root of your microSD. Which means you extract the folder then cut and paste the files located under the folder to the microSD. If you need additional info on this let me know. :)​

Additionally, you'll need that ts-calibration file (as stated earlier). I don't want to sound like an arse but are you positive you are downloading the full bundle and not just the system.ext2 file? I've booted them both from scratch and it seems to work. The only thing different I can think of is that I am adding my own media and AndroidApps folder.

When it's all said and done, you'll be looking at 2 or three folders (at the very least AndroidApps and conf folder) and 7 files (haret.exe, initrd.gz, modules-2.6.27.46-01276-g6a6a1c1.tar.gz, rootfs, system.ext2 and zImage). If you want to make sure the problem isn't the kernel package, I have no issues with THIS kernel package. You will need to delete the modules and zImage files and extract that file till you see two files; modules-xxx and zImage-xxx. Rename the file called zImage-xxx to just zImage and you should be set my friend! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ndnmaster096:
Got IT!

Great But That Touch Calibration FIle is not good on my touch pro.

I dont know why but its all messed up.

Therefore I'll delete it and do it manually,

i KNow theres a problem with that because you cant see the points but its better than not even being close.

so how can i boot gingerbread now?

and which do you think is more stable?:cool:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Use the same process for gingerbread. For now, it seems to work for both (for me). More stable build I like gingerbread for a more complete build I like froyo. I think gingerbread has a better beginning point compared to froyo in it's first stages, IMO
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ndnmaster096:
but i want both builds on my sd card.

also is there a different link for a new calibration file , it never seems to be accurate.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
You only need to troubleshoot once or so I thought. After that you should be able to put them into respective sub-folders and edit your startup.txt file.

If you want to manually create that file, you'll need to downgrade the kernel package. Use THIS one and only boot till you see the flying androids. Reboot once you see them and then replace that kernel package with the latest. You should only need to do this once and then either save just the ts-calibration file or the contents of the microSD. Let me know if you need additional info about placing more than one build onto your microSD before you do it. I'd suggest trying the FRX05 package first. Make a sub-folder and call it FRX05 and push the contents into that folder. Extract the GBX0A contents to the root of the microSD (NOTE: make sure you are extracting files and not just one folder).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ndnmaster096:
great it worked!!

but my battery gets drained really fast..

anyways to make it stay for atleast a day .

also when its almost dead why does it reboot .
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Ofc it did! :p

Are we using updated files? The kernel package has been updated since the last full packaged bundle was posted.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ndnmaster096:
Htc Whitestone

Hey is there any android builds for the htc whitestone (imagio) ?:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Unfortunately, I am not aware of any as I do not have this device :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ndnmaster096:
screw it i got the droidd
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Congrats? ;) :p

Honestly, that is the easiest way out of it... Still playing around with my Fuze and Android! Enjoying some CWM and CM7! :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] themavsman01:
I can't use this for very long before it drains the battery or maybe it's just dead?

I should get a new one.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] R^7Z:
Unfortunately, that is one of the trade-offs, for now, perhaps forever? :eek: Course, if you have a portable charger, this shouldn't affect you too much.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] themavsman01:
That is unfortunate to hear but it is old so what can you expect.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] themavsman01:
Hopefully someone can find a fix for it.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Manneman32:
Here it is...

I got a X10 mini the other day. Love the phone but I hate the blueish theme.

I have done this before and after reading through the forum I got xRecovery installed on my phone. I found a nice theme and I installed it via xRecovery. I cant remember what theme it was but it was supposed work on my firmware. Well... it worked for a while (2 hours) but when I turned on my WiFI the phone locked up and restartet after 2 minutes... and got stuck at the SE logo. Thank god I had installed xRecovery. I could rescue my phone.

Well since then I have been on the SE stock ROM but still... I really want to change my theme.

Can someone point me to any theme I can use? Preferebly with ONE that changes everything from blue to black for example in a single install.

This is my X10 Mini:

Model No: E10i

Kernel 2.6.29 SEMCUser@SEMCHost #1

Version: 2.1.1.A.0.6

As I understand although a theme is build for 2.1.1.A.0.6 it can still get bricked because of the SD card and stuff... is this correct?

Please... give me directions to a theme that really works with a fully update X10 mini...

Magnus // Sweden
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] IlyaSick:
This will be implemented later

wait...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Manneman32:
Looks nice... any idea when You will release it for the latest firmware?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] IlyaSick:
..............

soon;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Manneman32:
Well... i got this to work just fine....

Look forward to your release!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] Fanman1976:
I ordered the 2800mAh battery from BatteryUpgrade.com, and received it last Friday.

http://www.batteryupgrade.com/shopBrowser.php#/assortmentProductId/20120889/shopGroupId/54174540

Do yourselves a favor, and do NOT buy this product.

It's totally crap.

The more spacious back cover is really crap.

It opens (slides off) with a small touch of a finger.

You cannot retrieve the stylus anymore with the new backplate.

No sound buttons anymore (just a opening in the cover, no buttons)

It dos not fit snuggly to the body of the phone (major gaps between the body and the phone itself)

This product has cost me €37,49, and was a total waist of money.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] Bakardi:
thanks for the warning
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] kastg1:
Thanks for the warning -- I was looking at the same product. I also saw that the TP2 can actually fit a slightly larger battery without buying a new back cover -- an upgrade from the original at 2000 mAh (I can't post a link, but if you google search its easy to find).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] Fanman1976:
I made a complaint to the company, stating my grief, and included the pictures.

After two days I got a reply: (in dutch, so translation below)

Translation

Almost needless to say, that was the last I heard from this company....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] yelped:
Wow! Maybe try reporting them to your Credit Card company, and dispute the charge.

Thanks for the warning!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] batteryupgrade.com:
Dear Fanman,

First of all our apologies for the late reply, we were unaware of this post.

I'm sorry to hear you are not satisfied with the back cover you received, and I would like to make sure that this issue is solved to you satisfaction. From our helpdesk I understand that a new, improved cover was sent to you shortly after receiving your complaint and your post here. Furthermore you can of course always return the item for a full refund if it does not suit your needs. Our helpdesk will be happy to assist you further in this matter.

Kind regards,

Hello, I have a problem with the screen. The problem is that after the separation of rectal flip the screen does not respond, after sliding to operate normally, or is "not calibrated" (by the translator). I do not know what to do and ask for help. I apologize for my language but writes with a dictionary.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] term099:
Hello.

I recently rooted by Samsung Vibrant and installed Axura (Froyo 2.2). Everything was fine, I even rebooted a few times the phone and it started up normally. Today I let the battery drain completely and the phone switched off. I connected the phone on the PC usb cable to charge it and I tried after several minutes to start it. Unfortunately the phone did not start; it shows the Samsung Vibrant logo but stays there. I tried to go into clockwork recovery mode and it does go there but I don't know what to do to fix it. Is there something I can do?

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
So you didnt flash anything after you had the rom up and running?

Doesnt make sense for it to just stop working, something is missing.

Worst case, ODIN back and flash another.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] term099:
No, I didn't. Can I reinstall the Axura image I have on the SD card?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightofhonor:
You can try that, but you may need to odin back to JFD if that doesn't work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] term099:
Ok, thanks.

................

I have reinstalled axura from the sdcard and it seems to be ok now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmz81:
Hi ,

My girlfriend has had her galaxy s for about 4 months i recently flashed darkys rom onto it, with no problems (excellent rom btw), but now the phone has started doing menu and back on its own randomly making it impossible to do anything on it for longer than a few minutes , its like the soft keys are being pressed (but they arent of course).

I've had a google and came to the conclusion its a hardware fault and not software (ive tried factory reset / re-flashing roms/ kernels) but now i have the problem i cant send the phone back to tmobile with a custom firmware so is there anywhere i can download tmobile firmware and stock kernel to make it like when she got it ?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazytimechris:
In the General chat, there is a link to all the stock roms. Select the one you want and install that one. I am on t mobile in the uk and my code is TMU so that will most likely be fine for you.

By the way - Its exactly what I did last month and they fixed it fine for me with no questions...

CtC
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmz81:
hi thanks for the quick response , ive already installed a stock firmware but when the phone boots up it doesnt do the tmobile logo now, plus the firmware i have installed, i'm not sure if thats ever been available on tmobile , which firmware did you send your phone back to them with if you dont mind me asking ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazytimechris:
Hi,

I used the JP1 stock rom here. I remember now that once I installed the stock one I used the Kies registry hack to put the latest t-mobile firmware on there. Then it was branded T-Mobile again. The only problem is that now kies has been updated the Registry hack may not work.

If I were to send you a nandroid backup of my original T-Mobile rom (I did that when I got a new one!) Would that help?

CtC
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
I would blame the rom before the hardware and want a wipe to a very clean phone and install a stock rom .

You cannot download TMobile firmware you need somebody to give it to you unless you backed up your original firmware .

The only way to get TMobiles firmware would be to downgrade your phone to stock Eclair then use Kies to update as normal to Froyo branded TMobile or if that failed use the registry patch .

Fix on a non stock rom is going to depend on the guy that picks the phone up and the problem .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmz81:
"If I were to send you a nandroid backup of my original T-Mobile rom (I did that when I got a new one!) Would that help? "

It would be brilliant if you could do that, how can you send it though ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmz81:
@ jjegan i have completely wiped the phone, changed the firmware to 2.1update1 same problem still exists with the soft keys randomly pressing themselves thanks anyway .
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmz81:
can any one give me some advice about making this phone look as stock uk tmobile as possible before i send it back ?
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
My gps is constantly going in and out while using navigation. It drives me crazy. I had better lock on my hero.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
I have used it twice for about 30 minutes each time and it worked fine both times. Once I was on a speaker call for part of the time as well, about 5 minutes.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jjday7:
Make sure you have Use Wireless networks and Use GPS satellites in the options menu checked. If not, it will cause the phone to strictly rely on the wireless network which will cause crappy perfomance.
[EVO Shift 4G General] EricSS619:
Gps sucks on these phones its a known issue
[EVO Shift 4G General] pwrmedia:
Download "GPS Status and Toolbox" from the Market, and keep your GPS cache/data cleared and reset every so often. Works wonders.
[EVO Shift 4G General] finalhit:
i use mine everyday (not so much for navigation but traffic data). works perfectly. there are times when it takes a while to get gps connection, but that's an exception, not the rule.
[EVO Shift 4G General] alcohol120%:
Ive had my shift for a little over a month. I quickly stopped relying on it for GPS directions but have enabled it for wifi mapping and other location infomation.

ie. facebook 'places' and gasbuddy
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jjday7:
Was this by choice or because the gps was giving you problems. I have a shift and a evo and the shift is only a few seconds behind on getting a lock.
[EVO Shift 4G General] alcohol120%:
Mostly by choice. even though i live in the flattest part of Illinois it takes a little too long to connect. usually its time sensitive and i would rather just call for directions. still relevant to thread imo.

Side note: Yes, i've tried root/nonroot app solutions to speed it up, personally i'd rather call if the lock takes ~1min to connect.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
My gps locks just fine within a few seconds; I'd say 10 seconds at the most. It's holding the signal that is the problem. And yes I've tried resetting agps data with gps tools and ##gpsclrx# to no avail. Took it back to radio shack, they tried a data profile and factory reset, and said if it doesn't work they will exchange it tomorrow. Of course it was no better. So I'll get to see if another phone is better tomorrow.
[EVO Shift 4G General] JKILO:
Mine works fine except on the military base I work on...then its sporadic lol
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jjday7:
After more testing. Mine is working but a little wonky sometimes. I notice after a long wait it may take 30 seconds before locking. My Evo was instant even on cold start. Could they have put a cheaper gps radio to save money or could this just be a simple software fix.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sirbrent503:
I have serious GPS problems with this phone. When I first bought the Evo Shift 4G I thought it was defective hardware so I returned the phone for a replacement. My second Evo Shift 4G shows the same behavior. I don't know how they could have released the phone considering this major shortcoming. I had a Hero before this and its GPS worked pretty well. The Evo Shift 4G takes forever to get a lock, sometimes several minutes. I will not work for me indoors, even if I am on my porch. It is practically useless and I cannot depend on it at all, this makes many many features and applications I have come to love on Android practically useless. You don't realize how valuable location aware apps are until you can't use them :( I am debating if I should return the phone again and get a samsung epic, or if I should hope that they release a fix for this issues very soon. I don't know if it is something that could be fixed with an update though -- perhaps it is a hardware issues exclusively. I am very bummed because this phone is pretty fantastic otherwise.
[EVO Shift 4G General] eclipxe:
The GPS on the Epic is fairly broken.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jjday7:
I did another test this morning and the gps would just drop signal for 10 minutes at a time. I would have to get out of Google navigation and go back in to get a lock. If this keeps up, I think I will go back to the EVO. I'll give it the 30 days first though. I love the phone otherwise. I am very dependent on gps and that really is a deal breaker. Maybe if this gets some attention it will get on the front page of a big site and HTC will realize its a problem.
[EVO Shift 4G General] anthonyf27:
I'm on CM7, so no GPS here :(.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jo_795:
If you are using Google Nav, it will suck.. using the Tel Nav that came with the phone is better . Maybe its also due to Google Nav since it is still in Beta....
[EVO Shift 4G General] EricSS619:
I'm pretty sure there is already a post here where a sprint tech said he talked to an HTC rep and they knew about the problem and were working on a fix for the first update
[EVO Shift 4G General] Caromsoft:
I am hoping that any GPS problems will be worked out soon. I am wanting to upgrade two launch month Pres to EVO Shifts, and one of the main problems with our Pres is the GPS. My Pre constantly requires a restart before the Navigation will work correctly. My girlfriend's Pre has never worked well or consistantly.
[EVO Shift 4G General] mikey99n:
Agreed. The GPS on this phone is jacked up. I just got back from a trip to California and the GPS goes in and out...WTF! I was driving through the desert with nothing blocking the signal.

It worked again for about 5-10 mins whenever i restarted the nav program then it goes in and out agian.

The EVO was great however, worked in two seconds.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
Well, I exchanged. No go, still works the same. Will just have to wait and see if HTC updates will fix it. On the bright side, I can OC to 1.5 Ghz now. Still can't 1.8, but it's one hell of an improvement over 1056 Mhz I could get before
[EVO Shift 4G General] fifedogg:
My GPS holds signal pretty well but takes at least a minute to get a lock. I'm sure its a software issue and it will more than likely get fixed on our first software upgrade.

I noticed my phone wouldnt OC high on most governors but works fine @ 1.8 with OnDemand. Have you tried changing the Governor? At first I thought my phone wouldnt do it as well.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
I tried all the governors on my old phone, but no matter what governors and what my minimum was, clicking 0n 1100 would lock it up shortly there after. I'm running the new one on 1.5 interactive and its great. I may try the 1.8 again and try the other governors, but at the moment I don't see a need to as it runs so fantastic as it is.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BuddahWolf01:
O just used my gps for the first time in a while, and it didn't find a lock after driving on the interstate for a few minutes... so I turned the phone off and back on, then it worked pretty well.
[EVO Shift 4G General] oxeneers:
It's pretty much a known fact that the Shift GPS takes a while to lock on - definitely longer than the EVO 4G. I might do a side-by-side video comparing the two sooner or later.

However, with that being said, the phone still locks on GPS and provides great Maps and Navigation use. No doubt about it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jjday7:
I was thinking the same thing. I found some other bugs with the shift too. I hope the next update comes quickly. I really like this phone but really hope HTC is fast with the fixes.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Dravo:
My first shifts gps was garbage. This one (5th) is pretty good. We had a big snow storm and it didn't drop signal once on the hour long sloooow drive home.
[EVO Shift 4G General] onefasttreopro:
I keep reading about peoples' gps issues and just astonished. I haven't had any issues with my gps on my EVO shift at all from day one...I use Google maps regularly and it usually locates me within 5 seconds consistently. Only time I see any sort of delay in gps acquisition is in foursquare and that only takes me up to 30 seconds to get my location for checking in and such. I guess I must be one of the lucky owners. So far after 1.5 months I'm still loving this phone and no issues whatsoever. Is it mostly a factory loaded issue or when you start rooting the phone and stuff? Me personally, I'm completely stock.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
You are not alone.

[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:

[Fascinate General] boorad22:
This may sound like a very dumb question but i am just now getting into the different things i can do with my phone. One of which is i have rooted it and installed clock work manager. I have seen A LOT of people talking about odin and using it to install froyo 2.2 on their phone. I was just wondering how you actually go about getting odin on your phone, or is it something installed on your computer to transfer files to your phone? my main objective of all of this is just to have froyo 2.2 finally installed on my phoneso if anyone could please give me the run down on this and the info i need to install 2.2 on my phone, or a web page that shows you how to install it once i have odin, it would be greatly appreciated!!!
[Fascinate General] Irish Cream:
Odin is a program used to flash .tar files (modem, kernel, system) onto your phone while in download mode.

A little poking around here (I would link you but I'm at work) and you will find the Samsung Drivers, The Odin program itself, and recently someone posted Odin files for 2.2

If you have the .zip of 2.2 (or Superclean 2.4) all you will have to do is flash the eb01 modem in Odin, then install the .zip file through CWM.

Follow ALL instructions in the threads you find to the T or it will be a pain in the ass to get your phone back.
[Fascinate General] KitsuneKnight:
Remember: When using Odin

NEVER USE THE PHONE BUTTON

. We use the PDA button for the Fascinate.

Hi I have a question for you. you said that after flashing to 2.2 eb01 modem then install the .zip file through CWM. I did flash to eb01 2.4 sc and I dont understand what do you do to install the .zip file through CWM? And what that .zip file get you to have?
