@Stormynights

Hi I'd advise you to have a look at darkstones SD roms particularly the sense-less build (I'll edit post with link and name later, I forget it now).

It's very fast, simple to set up. I have been using it ever since I first tried it, about 6 weeks ago. Rock solid and very clean and lovely to use it's well worth a look.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] SoFaKiNgStOkeD:
Here are the two best Android builds for your HD2 (please get that crappy Windows 6.5 off of your phone at once)

Froyo 2.2 with Sense (ALOT LIKE 6.5 ONLY ANDROID)

How do you create a private folder on your phone for things such as for photos and numbers and serial keys you dont want everyone seeing?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik077:
For my private photos i use folders with dot in front of the name (etc folder photos is .photos). That way folder is hiden and visable just thru some apps (bluetooth file transfer or root explorer)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrimReaper24:
So it wont show up under your gallery section? Just wondering cause it gets annoying when you try to show somone a photo you took a family pic and there is some photos that you dont want your grandmother to seee lol.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik077:
No it wont. All folders with dot and files inside them are hiden. May be required to restart your phone after creation of folder but that it. This also may depend on wich rom are you using. Test it.

Hey

I dont know if anyone has come across this

For me after updating my fascinate to 2.8,

my lock screen wont show my background like it did before.

It just has black screen

Is there a way i can change this?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rm2011:
I havent heard of this happening. Your wallpaper isn't black?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dclutter1:
This happened to me a couple months ago. I don't remember what I did to "fix" it. I didn't really even notice though until it DID start showing my wallpaper on the lock screen again. Once I noticed though, I realized that I liked it better being plain black on the lock screen :P

Try setting a live wallpaper, clearing cache, rebooting. See if any of that helps.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chlrbwls:
HM!

Changing the wallpaper to live wallpaper did it..

That sure is weird..

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoostedSR20:
Ok, I have an AT&T Tab, completely stock except for root. I downloaded the .apk to make sure my bootloader was fine, and it passed.

Wanted to install the Overcom ROM, so I followed the tutorial.

I got as far as the Odin step. The overcome kernel flashes just fine, but when the tab reboots it never gets to the samsung boot screen. It just sits black with the backlight on after the AT&T screen. After leaving it like that for awhile, I turned it off and tried to get into recovery. Same thing, it just sits black with the backlight on, won't boot into recovery.

I downloaded and installed Roto's latest JMI and got it working again, but its still very odd. Ive used Odin with my Captivate quite a bit, and it seems to be working just fine.

Whenever you boot it sounds like its working perfectly fine, but the screen is blank with just the backlight lit. It stays blank until you hit the power button, then it turns off, then you hit power again, and it turns on perfectly fine and works.

I tried getting into recovery and its still doing the same thing, blank screen with backlight on. I have no idea if its in recovery and I just can't see it or if its locked.

Also forgot to mention, whenever the screen is blank with the backlight on, there is white line that goes down the screen on the right from top to bottom. And now, even when its booted up and running the JMI firmware, that line is there the whole time.

OK, let it charge for a few hours, and the line was gone. It seemed to be running ok, so I downloaded a terminal emulator, and tried to reboot into recovery. It rebooted and did the same thing, AT&T logo then blank screen w/white line. Now its stuck again, it won't even boot up. Also, it still gets into download mode just fine. It comes right up, and no line.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoostedSR20:
I thought JMI was stock firmware? What else is there? Someone posted the stock AT&T firmware, but as dicussed in the thread, it doesn't work. I tried it. This isn't a simple getting stuck at the boot screen, it doesn't even make it to the boot screen.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoostedSR20:
Added a video to the OP...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoostedSR20:
Just tried flashing the T-Mobile stock firmware for giggles. Same results as the Roto JMI ROM. You can hear it booting up, but all you can see is the backlight with white line. You can turn the screen off then on, and use it. It seems to work ok, until you turn it off, then it won't boot back up, just gets stuck like the video.

I've already contacted Samsung for a warranty repair, if I can't get this figured out (or someone here) its going back tomorrow.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
If you look a little in the general section you will find a thread called at&t black screen with thin white line fix. It's a simple fix that involves flashing the jj4 bootloader. This happens to almost every at&t tab.

Good god why isn't that a sticky anywhere? I almost sent this thing back! Its working perfectly fine now. I'm currently converting to ext4, then I'll flash the Overcome ROM.

I was wondering if there was Flash on Opera becuz it has proxy so I can get on facebook and stuff in school without usin 3G
[Vibrant General] ColorNapkin:
Whether you have flash or not is browser independent.

You need Froyo and to have Flash installed from the market.
[Vibrant General] Jasonhunterx:
I know that I got froyo I ain't noon I have been thought alot I under stand all this now I got voodoo and custom rom so I think I know what flash is
[Vibrant General] oka1:
I use opera and dolphin both load flash items so I guess YES
[Vibrant General] Jasonhunterx:
It wont work for me I.go on youtube and then it says I need plugin
[Vibrant General] Phrack:
Opera Mobile 10 does not support flash even if you are running Android 2.2 or higher. You need to use Dolphin,Miren, or Xscope.

Opera Mobile is still beta so maybe the final will have flash.

EDIT: Are you using Opera Mini? You said you were using it with a proxy which is what Opera Mini/Skyfire use. I don't know if Mini supports flash, never tried it. Froyo has flash built in, if you're not seeing flash it's because the browser doesn't support it or you need to turn on 'plug-ins' somewhere in the options.

Or just use the 3 browsers I mentioned above.
[Vibrant General] demize!:
I still use Steel, don't laugh, it's orphaned I know, but that will not load flash content.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorQMM:
Hi. I successfully installed CWM and flashed stock+voodoo UCKB1 kernel (as CWM indicates voodoo lag-fix is active and Quadrant score is 1528). However, I have a few n00b questions before I jack up my successful install... here's the story:

i897 Captivate

Build: FROYO.UCKB1

Kernel: was 2.6.32.9, now 2.6.32.9 with voodoo lag-fix

Updated to official 2.2 UCKB1 on 2/25, then rooted with SuperOneClick v1.7. All perfect... regularly could access Titanium BU, RootExplorer, etc so SU permission was enabled. I've been wanted to add the voodoo lag-fix, so followed various threads regarding 3e recovery + lagfix. I tried running an "Install.bat" file which was supposed to put a modified 3e recovery file on my phone... but that failed during ADB transfer (script stated "update failed!"). So quickly bailed out and went another route: using RootExplorer, I renamed my stock 3e recovery to "xxx_recovery" and copied the "modified 3e" recovery to /system/bin (renaming it to "recovery"). Rebooted, then rebooted into Recovery hoping to see a "modified 3e" recovery... but alas, was still the blue KB1 3e Recovery. (not sure if I was supposed to see anything different between stock 3e and modified 3e recovery). I think at this point I selected "Reinstall Packages" and rebooted... but still had blue 3e recovery. In any event, I pushed forward... installed ROM Manager... flashed ClockworkMod Recovery, rebooted... then rebooted again into Recovery. I now had the GREEN CWM... so 3e must have been modified to allow CWM recovery to be installed. Then, copied "stock+voodoo-Froyo-I897-UCKB1-unsigned-update.zip" to /sdcard root. Shut phone off, removed external SD, and did the 3-button boot into Recovery. Got the GREEN CWM, and did the "Apply zip from SD card", selected the voodoo zip, and applied. When I rebooted, Voodoo was enabled and life was good... However, now for my questions:

1) It seems I now have 2 CWM recoveries... GREEN v2.5.1.2 which shows in ROM Manager, and RED v2.5.1.3 when I now boot to recovery via 3-button method. So question is: should ROM Manager show v2.5.1.2 or v2.5.1.3 ? Since I have voodoo lag-fix active, should I only reboot to recovery via 3-button and never using ROM Manager?

2) I noticed I now have an "update.zip" file in /sdcard root. I'm not sure which event put it there. Was it when I hit "reinstall packages" from BLUE 3e recovery... or was this created by the CWM voodoo lag-fix flash?

3) Is there a way to determine what this generic "update.zip" file is and should I remove it? (as it might be the modified 3e recovery I no longer need since I have RED CWM).

Sorry for being long-winded... just want to capture all the steps I performed.

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorQMM:
Anyone who has Voodoo Lag-Fix have 2 CWM recoveries?

bumping.... where's the love?

Anyone who has installed Voodoo lag-fix on 2.2... if so, in summary have 3 questions:

1. do you have multiple CWM Recoveries? GREEN v2.5.1.2 vis ROM Manager and RED v2.5.1.3 via voodoo kernel.

2. Can/should I delete v2.5.1.2?

3. How can I tell what the "update.zip" package is on my /sdcard root? Did ROM Manager CWM v2.5.1.2 put it there? Can/should it be removed?

Thx.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
leave update.zip on the sdcard. its useful for if you go back to a stock kernel that does not have recovery

stop using ROM manager
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oxlong27:
if I was you I would odin back to stock and then unstall a custom rom much better than official 2.2 just keep your update zip. Its real easy to flash recovery pm me if you need help

sent from cappy with di11i rom
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DoctorQMM:
Thanks for the replies. Question: if I keep the "update.zip" on root, then sometime later while in CWM recovery I inadvertently hit "apply sdcard: update.zip", what will happen? I think this update.zip is the ROM Manager CWM v2.5.1.2 (Green Recovery). Will it overwrite my CWM v2.5.1.3 (RED Recovery) which I got from Voodoo kernel? Don't want to jack this up as I need RED for voodoo lag fix. Thx.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Liv33viL:
CWM makes it a tad difficult to "inadvertently" select a feature. Just like when performing brain science or rocket surgery you need to be very careful with your tool of choice.

Even if you do re-flash the update.zip file - no big deal - you already have the contents on your device. No harm, no foul.

2.5.12 will not be overwritten by 2.5.1.3. Supercurio designed the Red version to run with not overwrite it.

Peace-

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkgoth678:
At one point in time, about a month ago, I had my phone running exactly how I wanted it to. Successfully flashed to 2.1, had the Elemental theme going, installed xRecovery, even changed the boot screen around. Problems started coming when I dropped my phone. Camera stopped working, fine I can deal with that. But then I got tired of the Elemental theme, so I attempted to switch to the themes. I think I went back and forth between two themes and eventually, one worked. Though I was unhappy that the theme was really buggy. I think I tried another theme after that and eventually all I got on my phone screen after a reboot was a white screen with the android status bar. Couldn't touch it, couldn't move it, all functionality stripped, it was just there.

So I'm pretty much forced to install 2.1 on it again. I went through flashing procedures like normal, though, when I unplug the USB cord and turn on my phone, I am greeted with the "Sony Ericsson" screen and this lovely screen seconds after.

after a couple of seconds, the screen goes away and it goes back to the SE screen and it sits there... FOREVER. So what am I forced to do at this point? I flash back to 1.6 from gen0n's video that I had downloaded before and pretty much, its the only ROM that works on my phone now.

I attempted to look for other ROMs but almost every single one requires you to have xRecovery and I can't really do that on 1.6 :/

Anyone have any idea what this mystery screen means? I suppose it has something to do with my broken camera... does it mean I can't ever have 2.1 on my phone again?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lion3494:
Hey man you have to take your phone back to your carrier (like At&t) and hopefully you bought insurance so they can send you another phone then you can flash any rom you want or send it to Sony Ericsson especially since you dropped it and you will most likely have to pay for the repair. But it'll be worth it. Nothing's worse than an x10 stuck on 1.6 firmware. Makes me sick just thinking about it. Anyways just call your cell phone provider and ask about it. Maybe u can try using PC companion to flash official firmware but idk.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkgoth678:
Hey thanks for the reply,

Unfortunately, I didn't buy insurance :/ but I suppose i'll contact SE and see how much the repair would be and how long it would take.

Hey, the only thing worse than being stuck on 1.6 is being stuck on 1.6 without a camera :P Im not undermining your statement though, 1.6 is pretty ****ty, but stable enough for me to text and call.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkgoth678:
Just for the General info of everyone,

I just got off the phone with SE, and apparently they have a flat rate of $185 for physical damage to the phone. Its kind of funny because the address the guy gave wasn't even to SE, it was to some "PTS Electronics" place.

Yeah, I'll probably end up sending it in but if they want to charge me that much because there is physical damage then I don't think I'll end up paying it. First off because I dont have the money and second, because I only paid $50 for the phone so I think it dumb paying 3 times the phone to get it fixed.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkgoth678:
Alright, so I managed to fix the phone myself.

Got the right tools and took the phone apart, it appears that the camera wasn't broken at all, just the connector was disconnected ever so slightly because of the drop. A simple re-seating of the camera fixed it right up.

Talk about saving yourself money! If I would not have bothered to check if the reason for the camera not working was because it was really broken or not, I would of sent my phone in and payed $185 (plus shipping) for someone to do what I did in 5 mins.

So with that, I highly suggest if you think your phone is physically broken or has hardware problem, open it up and take a look for yourself and make sure things are really out of your hands.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lion3494:
