[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] Rubic13:
Yeah I would kill for Fallout, never really got into the BG series. As such I don't own the first one, and after reading more gemRB is only allows bg2 demo, so didn't bother.

Free Heroes 2 on the other hand, works pretty well. Was just playing some Heroes of Might and Magic 2.

Quick run down on what you have to do.

Download Free Heroes 2 on your g2/desire z

Install HoMM2 on your computer, go into the game files, copy the data folder, go into your sd card and put the data folder in "app-data/net.sourceforge.fheroes2"

You will most likely have to make the sourceforge folder.

Now start the game, make sure the "where to download application data" tab is pointed to your sd card, and then go to "downloads" tab, click game data I guess? Then dl midi music and essential map pack, get the additional and mega map pack if you wish, and any of the translations.

Now you should be able to run the game, but will run into the issue i had, crashing after the first turn I imagine :p

SO, remount your phone to the pc, open up your sourceforge.fheroes2 folder, and look for "fheroes2.cfg"

Open it with notepad, then look for "videomode = 640x480"

Change it to "videomode = 800x480" and save. Now should run with no issues...hopefully. I tested a few turns then attacked a graveyard....suffice to say I died :(

Took me a little bit of scouring to figure out exactly how to get it to run, and still havn't messed with any of the more indepth tweaks, so if you figure out some that work real well, be sure to pass them along :)

Mega Jump is extremely addicting and fun!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] mejorguille:
This is probably my new favorite game. Its a tower defence merged with the pokemon mechanics and is excellent in its execution. The game is currently a work in progress but there are updates every week and the developer is very curteous and listens to your suggestions. The game can be found here:

Look in the downloads section for the apk, the latest as of this post is 1.9 with 2.0 expected by tomorrow.

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronsullivan76:
I'll happily admit that I'm a noob and I never should have done this. After having a couple of android fanatics puffing their chest out about how easy it was to toss Froyo on a phone, I tried it and now I'm stuck.

I have a Samsung Fascinate on Verizon's network. I follow the instructions I found and now I'm stuck staring at some boot up and recover screen. What I can't do is select any of the options give to me.

I'm starting at the following screen:

Android System Recovery <3e> after using Odin3 v1.00

All:

I used Odin3 v100 to load Android 2.2 ROM

I followed the following steps

i9000XXJP2 Instructions

1. Remove the battery from your phone

2. Remove the SIM Card and MicroSD Card from your phone

(However, since it's a verizon phone, I had no sim card and I left my micro SD card in place)

3. Place the battery back on the phone

4. Hold down the HOME button, Volume Down button, and Power On button

5. You should now see a Download screen

6. Open Odin 3 v1.0

7. Click on the button “PIT” and load the “s1_odin_20100512.pit” file

8. Click on the button “PDA” and load the “I9000XXJP2-REV03-PDA-CL464213.tar” inside of the firmware download’s .rar file.

9. Click on the button “Phone” and load the “MODEM_I9000XXJP2.tar” inside of the firmware download’s .rar file.

10. Click on the button “CSC” and load the “GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJP2.tar” inside of the firmware download’s .rar file.

11. Click the checkbox next to: “Re-Partition”

12. Your settings should now look like Figure #2

13. Plug your phone into your computer with USB Debugging on

14. Look at the gallery below to see if everything is going right

15. Once done, your phone will boot up

And now the phone Rebooted and I get the following message “update media, plase waite E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (invaild argument) E: copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD: you storage not prepared yet. plase use UI menu for format and reboot actions. copy default media contenr failed.”

I can get my phone to the option above and I can still get to download mode

It seems to me that I need to reformat the internal SD Card but I cannot select any of the options in the Android System Recovery <3e>

The options I have are

Enter: OK Key, Select : Vol UP /Vol Down

Reboot system now

Applysdcard:update.zip

Wipe date/factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Format internal sd-card

The Volume rocket works to move between the above options but I can't use the “OK” key nor any other to select an action

Someone please please help me! Even if I can just reset it to where I was before, I honestly don't think I'm far along enough that I can't undo what I did, I just don't know how ...

I really really need a hand
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
The biggest problem of what you wrote, is you followed the instructions of the wrong phone.

The verizon fascinate is the i500 not i9000. The verizon fascinate doesnt use the phone button on odin.

Odin this file for 2.2: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html

+1 to the post above me. You will more than likely need to use heimdall. (the hardest part is installing the drivers. Once you figure out how to do that it's similar to Odin)

At this point, you are extremely lucky to still have a course of action. Rarely does flashing that many files from another device actually leave you with an easily recoverable phone.

Good luck!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RacerXFD:
Since you used pda, you might still be safe, but I doubt you will be able to recover this. You are probably out of luck after this accident.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloblaw1:
Oh dear.... you definitely did flash firmware for the wrong phone on to your phone. :(

Since you can still get into download mode you *might* have a shot. Definitely try that thread linked a few posts back. Flashing the firmware for the i9000 to a i500 might have done something screwy to your phone's memory partitions. The thread here has a .pit file which should repartition your phone's memory.

Please let us know if you do bring your phone back from the dead. Best of luck.

I have installed BusyBox and VPNC. I have tried many version of BusyBox.

I think the procesure of setup tunnel cause phone crash.

I changed some parameters in .config and re-compiled tun.ko. The phone reboot as before.

I can't find the solution to resolve.

You siad you have managed to compile one from source code.

Do you connected by VPNC or OpenVPN successfully?

Could you give me your tun.ko, let me try.

Or tell me some tips in compiling process such as some parameters in .config.

[HTC Inspire 4G] zswielder:
I second that. I don't see how that's a problem. I normally hold my phone with one hand (as most people do?), and it doesn't make sense to hold it by its top...

But, I suppose, if you use your phone in the landscape mode in either wifi games or internet, it could be a problem. Fortunately, I don't do neither.

Good finding either way ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] jc2470:
even in landscape mode i tried to hold it where it would affect signal but cant get hands on it that good and beable to do anything on phone. there is no practical way to hold the phone and make the wifi signal drop. By the way all devices will lose signal if your cover there antennas maybe not all the way but definately will notice a reduction in signal, iphones problem comes from it being where you have to put your hands. if they made those bands at bottim or top of phone it wouldnt be a problem.

@ comoba The problem is you have to downgrade your desire Z rom to 1.34 in order to temp root and root. Heres the downgrading instructions. You have the 1.82 rom and Im not sure if the downgrading will work for that rom, others have asked this same question on downgrading the 1.82 rom to 1.34 but I have yet to see confirmation of this.

@prittyboy203 you are giving wrong advice on rooting, you are telling him to push a file specifically for the G2 to his desire Z, you might want to do some research before giving advice.

alright.

just a few questions about it;

how do i backup everything? (apps, settings, etc)

what does "HTC__##" mean(in the begining of the post)?

what is "RUU"?

what is "S-Off"?

what is "CID" and what does it mean to set it to "11111111"?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joemm:
Wow thats a lot of questions, maybe you need to do some more research before you jump into this.

1) When they say "back up" in that thread they mean your contacts, personal data and account settings, etc... I use google to sync with. You really cant use any rooted apps to backup with cause obviously your not rooted.

2) "HTC_# #" means your INFO Carrier Identification #, if its not in that list you need to make a gold card. To find out your CID run these commands in ADB:

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem boot

3) An RUU is an .exe program that automatically flashes a shipped rom to your phone, it means "Rom Upgrade Utility"

4) S-Off means the security feature on your nand is turned off so you can perm write to it and you can flash custom roms, etc....

5)CID is Carrier Identification, and to have it set to 11111111 means you can flash other carrier specific roms to the phone.

For CID and S-off Info go HERE TO THE WIKI......
