[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rixanu:
Good news, it worked! After removing Dropbox and starting unrevoked first I'm finally rooted and running Cyanogenmod 6.1. Just one last question, though, bear with me. If I wanted to move the the Cyanogenmod 7 RC or just update in the future, do I have to go through the whole backup/wipe data/flash/restore process again, or is there an easier way since it's the same ROM? Thanks sooo much!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
Full wipe between cm 6.x and 7.x. .. Why? V6 is Froyo, V7 is gingerbread. Enjoy your rooted device; share the learning from your root experience.

Well that's slightly annoying. Eh, guess that's just how it goes. I'll be sure to share the experience, thanks for all your help!
[Atrix 4G General] panflute:
Had it a few hours. Great quality all round much better than Captivate. Apps have to be reinstalled individually from old phone. Lots to configure and figure out. Taskpanel reports 500 mega free as opposed to 50 on the Cativate!! Some apps will need udating to work...like vplayer for instance. Launcher pro works but you lose motoblur widgets which is fine. Very very happy with the upgrade. This will fly when I am done with it. Keyboard feels great and has predictive text. Great phone worth it.
[Atrix 4G General] neer2005:
Thanks for the update can't wait till I get mine!
[Atrix 4G General] AllTheWay:
I would have to agree with the OP. The gorilla glass and high resolution are very nice as well. I don't have any complaints thus far. Much faster than my captivate and faster than the Inspire.
[Epic 4G General] s84471:
Alright, so I've been trying to figure out why Windows doesn't recognize my phone in Download Mode (attempting to get EB13) and I've now realized it doesn't even detect it in Mass Storage mode (Windows tells me a USB device was not recognized when I connect it)

Any ideas?

I'm stumped here...

Note: tried it on both x86 and x64 versions of Windows.
[Epic 4G General] MedicStuder:
Download the latest drivers. As for download mode areu trying to use odin?

Sent from my EB13 Samsung Epic
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Check the "teeth" in where the cable connects to your phone. Some people have had them bend out of place.
[Epic 4G General] s84471:
Just downloaded them onto my x86 machine, and even when connecting my phone in normal mode (when it's fully on) it tells me device not recognized.

So at this point, I'm not even focusing on Odin, because nothing seems to be able to see my phone over USB.

I've even tried a different cable, but to no avail.

And yeah, I tried the Samsung EB13 download and I tried Odin. Neither could see it (just like Windows).

Other then this, it works perfectly fine. So it's not like I bricked it or anything.
[Epic 4G General] tanmack33:
Having the same issue. Tried multiple computers, reinstalling the drivers, and multiple USB cables. No luck. Makes things tough trying to get EB 13.
[Epic 4G General] s84471:
Alright, so I'm not alone here...

Windows actually seems to have just recognized it while powered up fully (and is currently installing the drivers).

Figure I'll let that finish and then try Download Mode again.

And then hope for the best I guess.

EDIT: It seems to be working now.

The Samsung EB13 utility is doing its thing in Download Mode.

Crossing my fingers it finishes without incident.

Uninstall drivers then install then reboot pc and phone then try. If reboot didn't solve the problem reboot phone and try again.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbolichowski:
It seems the Bluetooth feature on my HTC Desire is no longer working.

I am rooted, and running CM7 Nightlies.

If I go to Settings > About, the Bluetooth MAC Address shows 'Unavailable'.

If I try to enabled Bluetooth, after I select 'Enable', it greys out like it is activating for about 5 seconds, then turns white and does NOT have a checkmark in the box.

What I have tried:

-Wipe/Reflash with different ROMs

-Flashing different radio files

At this point, I'm not sure what else to try. Any ideas?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dzam72:
I'm in the same boat.

Try to enabled Bluetooth, after I select 'Enable', it greys out like it is activating for about 5 seconds, then turns white and does NOT have a checkmark in the box

looking at log cat I see the following error:

E/bluedroid( 237): bt_enable: Timeout waiting for HCI device to come up

D/BluetoothService( 237): Bluetooth state 11 -> 10

I too have tried flashing different ROMS, kernels and radio's..

From Android shell I type 'service list' and note the following are listed:

29 bluetooth_hid: [android.bluetooth.IBluetoothHid]

30 bluetooth_a2dp: [android.bluetooth.IBluetoothA2dp]

31 bluetooth: [android.bluetooth.IBluetooth]

So would seem the service is running?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgesmart1:
I have a similar problem with my Desire. From the Bluetooth Settings menu I CAN enable Bluetooth and it DOES get a tick by the side of it. However, nothing else appears to work. I CANNOT set the bluetooth device name, I CANNOT scan for devices, entering discovery mode force-closes the settings window and generally ends badly.

I originally followed the CyanogenMod Wiki Guide for Desire GSM using unrevoked3 to root the phone. This is when the problem first occurred. The phone was perfectly usable aside the bluetooth (that I noticed). At the time I also tried OxygenMod and various other ROMs to get bluetooth working - all to no avail.

In a more recent attempt to fix it, I restored the phone back to HTC's RUU (from Shipped-Roms) and the bluetooth works nicely once again. I tried to go back to Cyanogen 7.1RC1 and this immediately breaks BT once again. Reading the links posted above imply that it's the misc partition getting corrupted (I'm not sure when - I guess when ClockworkMod flashes CM7.1)?

I wonder if anyone who's fixed this issue could just add a little more detail? I'm 95% of the way to understanding - there's just something that's not clicked. I've got the full 6 cans, I'm just lacking the plastic bit that holds the 6-pack together! Thanks :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jadi929:
I have been using my hd2 with 2.2 froyo off sd card for about 3 months now. I haven't had many serious issues until now, the battery used to last me a whole day easily.

However, last week, one day my phone didn't even last half a day. I recharged in WinMo, same thing. Then I decided to delete the data.img file and start over, restored my apps, then yesterday: in two hours, my battery went from 99% to 67%, with no use at all. In addition, at the end of these two hours, battery temperature, according to battery widget was 110 degrees Fahrenheit.

So this time I deleted data.img, and decided not to restore any apps and start from scratch. I am thinking this was caused by an app running in the background? But how can I know in the future? I have advanced task killer but it doesn't really help.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Scabes24:
This could be due to many reasons..

1- Overclocking with Setcpu

2- Task killers (read the useful links in my sig to learn more)

3- radio + rom combo

4- Hardware issues

There's many other reasons as well so if it's not one causes mentioned above try searching :) ("hd2 overheating android")

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
SO, earlier today Supercurio put together something special for those of us in Canada on the i896- a stock Rogers Froyo kernel with voodoo injected into it. Following logic, those of us on the stock Rogers Froyo should be able to have our cake and eat it too: a kernel modified especially from Froyo, intended for the Captivate, with voodoo lagfix but without the need to reflash an i9000modem or kernel. Here are the files:

Kernel: stock Rogers Froyo i896 w/ voodoo injection

Modem: Stock Rogers I896 UXJL1 Modem

Before trying a flash, I unlagfixed and backed up via Titanium Backup.

First I tried the kernel flash. I knew it wouldn't work with the modem, but I flashed it first to make sure there were no issues.

Rebooted into recovery- RED SCREEN

I did not enable the lagfix at this point. Just a straight reboot.

Regular boot screen; Rogers logo; Samsung Splash screen- then everything goes black. The home key buttons will light up and never go out if pressed. The phone stays like this until I pull the battery(I waited 25 min before I gave up).

I have tried various configurations regarding flash order(kernel/modem), I have repartitioned the card, factory reset before starting, everything I can think of, but this kernel won't boot past the splash screen.

However, when I revert to SpeedMod kernel(k13c) everything goes back to normal.

I would have thought I could flash this stock kernel over the i-9000 based kernel with the lagfix on both without issue, clearly I am wrong.

Can anyone see anything in my process that is inherently wrong, or even better would some other brave soul with stock Rogers Froyo be willing to try a flash? I wouldn't bother if this is your first crack at it though.

Thanks in advance to all who can help out.

So after wiping all caches and factory resetting, I get the following message at my Red Recovery screen:

Is this important?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whiteguypl:
I get that all the time. No idea what the hell it is and have had to manually select my GSM bands when I flash a new rom or wipe dalvik cache since it started. Other then that no problems seem to be caused by it, for me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
Call off the dogs- after I installed the driver package that was included with Odin 1-Click I managed to get a master clear and a flash to the AT&T stock.

I must have spent 3 hours installing different driver packages today.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrenicthenub:
A shame it didnt work out smoothly. I'd be interested but am far too new to risk the troubleshooting..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
Well, I have some very good news. This little kernel seems to be pretty special. After getting myself back to Rogers Froyo, I have done a few tests. I am getting very solid Linpack scores of 15-16 mflops and Quadrant Standard scores of 1400-1500. Using CPU benchmark, we have scores of about 725 ms @ 1000 hz and 700 ms @ 550 hz.

These scores are very solid and are about 20-25% improvement over stock Rogers Froyo Kernel.

This is promising as the kernel is a native Captivate kernel and could do a better job of servicing the many Froyo ROMs out there in terms of simplicity and stability.

The stock modem still needs more testing in terms of gps fixes and accuracy and data speeds.

I'll get back to you about those shortly.

If you have thought about staying on Rogers Froyo, this would be a good start for improvement.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
I would highly recommend this Kernel!! All the above benefits, plus fantastic battery life. The stock modem seems fine, although I've had better data transfer speeds and GPS locks from JL1 kernel, but this stock modem is perfectly fine.

Would love to see anyone else's results as well!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outcastrc:
I like what I see so far. I am getting 1575 scores on quadrant (I know it doesn't mean much) but overall lag is gone. :D

I was a little freaked out this morning as the Rogers network was dead here this morning and I thought maybe I had done something with all this to kill cell / data. But everything cleared up after a few hours and I was back to normal.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shroff:
Outcast, were you able to flash this custom Kernel without the issues that Clemmie came across? Much like phrenicthenub, I'd love to see the performance increase without the current bugs of custom ROMs, but I don't think I'm competent enough to troubleshoot if it all goes to hell.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
As long as you disable any lagfixes and return any O/C or U/V kernels to normal you won't have these issues. Everything should work fine.

Hi guys... So i was trying to get SpeedMod to work with a i9000 modem like JK4, but my bluetooth is always noisy...

Right now, i have:

Latest SpeedMod kernel with LagFix enabled

JK4 Modem flashed.

What do i have to do to get this Rogers Supercirio's Voodoo kernel and modem ?

Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shroff:
Elisha, I just took the plunge and got these flashed. Definately do the e3 recovery fix before setting up clockwork or anything else. That was the one part that gave me any trouble, but as soon as I got that sorted, everything went very well.

I'll try to pay attention to how things seem to perform and post my findings. Thanks for the encouragement again, Clemmie.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
First you will need to boot into recovery and disable your lagfix. Back everything up with Titanium Backup. Download the files above to your root folder and reboot into recovery again. Using cwm, use the install zips option and flash both the kernel and the modem. Reboot yet again into recovery, clear your caches, then enable the new lagfix in your cwm options. It will take a while to convert your partitions from rfs to ext4, so be patient.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGrub:
Thanks Clemmie,

I disabled LagFix from cwm and the speedmod kernel, rebooted, flashed modem with original JL1 modem, and then reflashed kernel with stock rogers froyo. backed everything up with Titanium backup. So i am currently back to stock, with a backup.

cwm is not in my recovery menu now, so if i use ODIN to flash the .tar version of supercurio's stock+voodoo kernel, does it contain cwm ?

ODIN with this kernel should work and then enable lagfix on first reboot by converting to ext4 right ?

Thanks alot, i am just starting with all this and want to make sure i understand everything before i take the plunge.

Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemmie:
Correct, it does.

Also correct.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGrub:
Thanks ! i'll try that a little later... i'll let you know how it goes...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shroff:
Well, so far, this Kernel seems to be the best thing to ever happen. I consistently get a score of 1501 in Quadrant standard (not from a fresh boot or anything, and running beautiful widgets and things, so I don't know if that makes a difference. I know with most benchmarks you're meant to close as much as possible, etc) and things just seem to be nice and smooth overall. On top of that, the battery life is, all of a sudden, seemingly PHENOMENAL! All whilst using the stock ROM. Either one of those benefits alone would have made the flash worth it. This is the way this thing should have run from the beginning.

I'll test out how well the GPS works, and try to pay attention to my signal strength with WIFI and calls and report back.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LNJ:
Thanks I figured as much as I had to do the 3e fix after I accidentally upgraded to the official Rogers Froyo the first day I got the phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGrub:
Ok, so i have used the tar version with ODIN3 v1.52 to flash stock+Voodoo-Froyo-I896-UXJL1. As i said, i was on stock kernel with stock JL1 modem.

Flash went great, took about 5 seconds, then rebooted. First reboot took about 7 or 8 minutes with a robot voice telling me the different steps it was in...

Everything workd without hickups... This kernel works realy well and speed is definitely there !

Thanks for the help guys...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shroff:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morpheus_1987:
Going to give this a shot to see if I get back my good battery life. I had stock rogers 2.2 and flashed to speedmod and my battery became really crappy so hopefully this brings it back. I really do enjoy the Ext4 lag fixes but the drop in battery life was a pretty big cause for concern.

I'll report back after a some testing.

See 1 minute mark:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHXacj9j2n8

Not exactly this kernel but still a voodoo kernel which is probably one of supercurio's works or based off one of his works.

Regarding this kernel, it doesn't have as much free RAM as the speedmod kernel which is noticeable if you return to your homescreen after surfing with many many tabs open in a browser, but no where near as bad as on stock kernel with OCLF. I'm just extremely happy I have most of the benefits of Ext4 lag fix with great battery life now.

I could not narrow down what the specific cause of my battery drain was while on speedmod but since I was just flashing kernels and not entire roms, I didn't even have to restore apps/change settings so I would blame it on the kernel itself.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkl555:

[Epic 4G General] AmericanJedi001:
No, sorry, I'm having the opposite effect with EB13: My GPS seems to be more accurate than before!

Months ago, before I tried flashing, my GPS seemed to work fine for navigation purposes with DI18, though I never checked the accuracy. I eventually tried flashing DK28, which killed my GPS entirely. I went back to DI18, where it "worked," but wasn't very accurate. I never got accuracy better than 99 ft. with GPS Status. Today I updated to EB13 by copying the update.zip to my SD card and I went outside about 20 min. ago and cleared aGPS data, then redownloaded it and got a lock in a few seconds, with accuracy to 16 ft. I didn't wait around to see if it would get any better, though I think it would have.

I recommend you download the "GPS Status" app, turn on GPS, then in the app go to [ Menu Button ] >> [ Tools ] >> [ Manage A-GPS State ] >> [ Reset ] then [ Download ]. Make sure you are in a fairly clear area with a good view of the sky and horizon (i.e., not in a city with tall buildings, etc.) and see if you can get a fix.

Also, some people have recommended just going into Google Navigation in the past to get a fix.
