I was on EB01 I tried to flash to vinallia or something and then I tried to flash back to stock because my whole screen is black so I used this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=867648&page=19 and nothing happened I mean I know just have my wallpaper and no applications or anything I think my phone is broken and I am super freaking out and I don't know what to do!!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaze105:
Can you explain your steps on how you used odin. Some people make a mistake here and mess up their phone (using phone button).

Also how did you flash the vanilla rom.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xHoLyx:
Try this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=948679

But before you do, download update.zip from this link I uploaded direct link

http://www.4shared.com/file/ReRrCtwV/update.html

Place update.zip into the sd card by taking out from the phone and mount it on computer

Then do the first thread I gave u. And when u get ur phone back up hold power button which will give u an option to go recovery click that and apply update.zip

I have done somerhing like u b4 I updated to eb01 n something happened so I tried install back to stock rom which became more complicated. So let me know if theres any progress after trying my method
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperFan86:
You are going to be fine. You don't need to odin, you need to reinstall the rom. The first time I flashed a rom on my phone it did the same thing. You get a ton of messages and nothing shows up on your screen but the default background.

Was your phone stock before you tried to flash?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
I can't really understand where you are in fixing this, but it sounds like your phone is successfully booting to the homescreen and now you want to know how to get back to where you were? If you're wondering why your apps are gone, it's because the DI01 odin package you flashed flashes everything, and does a factory reset on first boot as well, so all of you apps and data that wasn't stored on the SD card is gone. You'll have to re-install them via Titanium Backup if you had it, or manually if you didn't have any backups. Also, if you want to get back to EB01, you'll need to download the EB01 ROM, EB01 kernel, EB01 modem, as well as CWM recovery to flash as well.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperFan86:
His problem is that he has nothing. What is displayed after he boots is a series of error messages and then the home screen default widgets just show up as dead space "holders".

I am trying to remember how I fixed this... I think it had something to do with me not installing with clockwork mod installed correctly, but again, I'm not 100% sure.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cking122:
This guy is right. I fixed it although I still couldn't send text messages so I merely took it to verizon and they are sending me a brand new fascinate :D
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
All you needed to do was make sure your modem was the correct version and you could have sent text messages...

[G2 and Desire Z General] synpax:
How do you do flash the ROM every day and not loose all your settings, apps, etc. and have to re-download and reset everything again?

Or do you not loose all this when you download new nightly builds of CM7?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Athrun88:
I never understood this either. Either you can flash over the previous 'nightly' and that preserves the settings and apps or they do a titanium backup of the apps and settings and flash that back on after doing a wipe. Don't know for sure tho.

The nightlys are too bleeding edge for me tho, tend to stick with a stable rom until cyanogen releases a fully compiled version.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Powers88:
I flash nightlies nightly. All you do is flash over the old one and everythings still there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tangiers:
So you don't do a wipe in Rom Manager before you flash?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ScooterG:
Never. I haven't wiped once in about 30+ updates. Phone runs great.
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
1) download update and put on SD card

2) enter recovery

3) Wipe cache/dalvik cache (notice. Don't wipe data. this is how you keep your apps/preferences/etc.)

4) Apply nightly update .zip

4a) If you're running a launcher mod (other than ADW) you can go to reboot recovery then flash the launcher mod as well to save your homescreens.

5) Reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Daughain:
I don't even do that. Just flash straight from ROM Manager. I also don't backup before every update either. Think my current backup is nightly 15.

Vision rooted, booted and scooted
[G2 and Desire Z General] Vandam500:
Exactly how I do it. +1
[G2 and Desire Z General] jeffy88:
But, the very first time you installed a ROM you had to wipe everything?

It's just the updates where you don't need to wipe, right?
[G2 and Desire Z General] bazhip:
Yeah, you only need to wipe when going to a new version of android, eg 2.2 to 2.3
[G2 and Desire Z General] martonikaj:
or... between CM and Gv or MIUI or Sense. Just good practice to wipe when making huge ROM changes.
[G2 and Desire Z General] convolution:
what exactly is dalvik cache?
[G2 and Desire Z General] tan-ce:
If goggle "what is dalvik cache", you'll probably get back to an xda thread, except that the first reply tells you to go google it, lol. Don't worry, though, cyanogen gives a pretty good summary of what it is in that thread a few posts down.
[Vibrant General] xKrazYx626:
EDIT: Ok so I flashed it back to 2.1 stock, i'm gonna try flashing Bionix again, is there something I should do before flashing it? Am I in the wrong version or something? Help!

Ok so here's the situation:

I was running Axura 2.0.3 or something and things were ok, but I wanted to flash to something better, so I downloaded the Bionix Frost 2.2.1 ROM and flashed it. It didn't have any of my contacts or SMS so I went to flash it back to my last backup, which was 12/15/10, and Axura. I go to Clockwork Mod, and run the nandroid backup and now when my phone boots up, it goes through the screens, and freezes on the Galaxy S screen, then everything turns black and when I touch the screen, all the bottom buttons light up, but nothing happens, and the only way to get that to turn off is to pull the battery.

Is there any way I can fix this? I have Odin, but i'm not sure exactly what to do here.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
flash a kernel. nandroid does not restores kernel.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
First things first, calm down.

This is not hard, but it can seem that way if you freak.

Did you read the guides? Did you download rom manager, flash cwr, go to stock recovery and reinstall packages (twice maybe)?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
i really think it's about flashing a kernel.
[Vibrant General] xKrazYx626:
So what kernel do I need? I'm back at full 2.1 stock, and I want to get back to my Axura 12/15/10 nandroid, do I need a kernel?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
That axura is 2.2 right? So any 2.2 kernels should be fine,

flash nandroid then before rebooting flash kernel.
[Vibrant General] xKrazYx626:
In the phone information it says my Kernel is 2.6.29? It says firmware version is 2.1update 1.

If I just want to flash to Bionix, do I need to update a kernel or can I just go straight ahead and do that?
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
yes. you don't need to flash a kernel when you flash bionix.

You only need to flash a kernel when you are restoring a nandroid backup.
[Vibrant General] xKrazYx626:
Thanks, you helped a lot.

One last question: how do I move my contacts and SMS over? Whenever I flash a new ROM I seem to lose it.
[Vibrant General] j56bp:
2.6.29 froyo .....u need 2.1 eclair kernel !!!!!
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
What if when rebooting to recovery re-installing packaged always end up in failure? Should I go ahead and flash a rom?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bbot3k:
I got my HTC HD2 a while ago and my friend flashed darkstones superram froyo onto it. Each time I would turn on the phone it would boot into into a custom winmo rom then I would tap to boot into android. Now I use tytung's nexushd2 v2.4 nand rom and when I turn on the phone it goes straight into magldr and boots up gingerbread. But everytime the winmo splash screen shows up right before magldr. Is there any need for winmo on my phone anymore?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ali_Shaikh:
The splash screen is just there, you can't change it unless you flash another WinMo rom. It doesn't mean that WinMo in on your phone, its just a left over jpeg
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
winmo isnt on your phone, all you are seeing is the splash screen

[KIN Two Software Development] kintwom:
Ok, I am not sure if this was discussed before but I found this registry hack for the Zune which enables you to use it as a external drive and I got it to work with the kin as well. This requires the Zune software.

NOTE: If Controlset002 does not work, try ControlSet001 or CurrentControlSet

* Make sure your Kin is not plugged in and your Zune software isn’t running

* Open up Regedit by going to the start menu and selecting “run”. Type regedt32 and hit “OK”

* Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet002\Enum\USB\

* Search for “PortableDeviceNameSpace”. This should be contained in the Vid_####&Pid_####\########_-_########_-_########_-_########\Device Parameters within the above …\USB\ The ##’s listed here will be numbers and letters specific to your Kin.

* Change the following values:

o EnableLegacySupport to 1

o PortableDeviceNameSpaceExcludeFromShell to 0

o ShowInShell to 1

* Plug in your Kin, and make sure the Zune Software starts up.

* Hopefully at this point you can open up “My Computer” and browse your device, though it does NOT show up as a drive letter.

I am not sure if this helps at all but hopefully it is something to work with.
[KIN Two Software Development] Antonpup:
Doesn't let you use it as external HDD. It only allows you to see some files on your kin, but doesn't allow you to read/write to them.
[KIN Two Software Development] kintwom:
Syncing

You should have access to the files while Zune is transfering files. If you are syncing, it unlocks the drive and allows you to access the files.

After doing this, it technically should be possible to reverse engineer the Zune software and recreate the "unlocking" feature in another piece of software.
[KIN Two Software Development] Antonpup:
I tried this. While synching it removes the "Storage" drive from KIN. So I cannot access the drive. And after the sync it is still not present. I have to reconnect my KIN to my computer to see that drive again.

Here's KIN with access to that drive (Before sync):

Here's KIN without access to that drive (After sync):

Conclusion... either this doesn't work for me, or i haven't received enough information to execute this.
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
Nope. The zune software has some kind of protection and operates in a bit weird way (cause DRM protection).

On the other hand, reverse engineering the unlocking procedure *could* be done easier on the mac software, if you can sniff the usb from a windows host, executing a virtualized osx machine.

My current CPU hardware has no virtualization support, so i cannot do that even having legal windows and mac disks. (no vmware support for intal Mac OS's without that)
[KIN Two Software Development] kintwouser:
The cheapest crappiest phone is the most secure. Makes one wonder doesn't it.
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
Just the DRM used (Janus) on the windows Zune is secure. The Osx software doesnt relay / support DRM, so it's almost doable if you got virtualization support (not my case).

The device software itself it's not so secure (although presents some pain in the ass troubles).
[KIN Two Software Development] dezgrz:
Installing OSX in virtual box now..
[KIN Two Software Development] johnkussack:
Well, apart from that (if you manage to get it to work), you would need:

- Sync software from markspace (link posted on this forums)

- Usb sniffer. Usblyzer will suffit, commercial software with 30d trial.

As virtual OS will take the device itself, you must set the usb sniffer to capture the USB bus and not the device. You can see what bus is plugging it on the windows host and the capture software opened as it should show "Kin" there, so check its parent bus instead the kin device.

You should start capturing before opening the sync software and let it enable the "Connected" window at the kin, close the sync software and when kin is back on normal state, stop the capture. Then you can save the captured log and so on.

Several times will provide better results, so you can check what changes (if anything does).

Of course, you must have the legal right on your country and yak yak yak...

Note (importantly) this two things:

- This (if ever done) will only unlock MPM (or MPMz) protocol, so just storage access to read/write multimedia files.

- I have bricked my phone so i cannot test, write or anything in this mode, hence i dont give a ##### about the logs captured, unless i am able to recover the normal kin boot. In that last case, i got a c++ program to send the captured logs again to the kin without mac/win software ....

[Nexus One General] boky3000:
With sleep policy to never on CM7 RC2, does that affect battery life when wifi is turned off? Read some posts its just some bug?
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
set wifi sleep to never increases your battery life dramatically. if you let wifi sleep, then it switches back to 3g which destroys battery much faster than wifi. so leave wifi sleep on NEVER.

[Nook Color General] lanwarrior:
So I finally got HoneyComb working on my Nook Color (NC), residing in the microSD card using a Kingston 8GB Class 4. However, this card seems to be one of the slowest and using the HC in NC is almost unusable.

Example

:

- Screen rotation takes 3-5 seconds

- Opening new app, depending on which app, can take 1-5 seconds

- Browsing certain website can make the screen unresponsive

- etc..etc..

I know that the HC version available in this website is probably still in "preview" or beta stage and some slowdown is expected, but I am not expecting it to be THIS bad. So I think the culprit is the microSD card itself.

However, I have tried

many different MicroSD card and none works

. I.e. it gives the "decrypt storage" error when booting up the NC. The cards I have tried are:

- Patriot 16GB Class 10

- A-Data 16GB Class 10

- Kingston 8GB Class 6

The ONLY one that works so far is Sandisk. Unfortunately, from SanDisk website, I do NOT SEE ANY card higher than Class 4.

Thus, can you recommend which is the

MOST STABLE and FASTEST card

? I.e. the ones that did NOT give slowdown per the examples I have given above.
[Nook Color General] devis:
i'm using sandisk 4 GB class 4 HC

nookie froyo, runs fantastic.

Class 10 cards apparently dont do too well. lots of people have had issues with those. class 6 should be OK, class 2 and 4 workk very nice.
[Nook Color General] lanwarrior:
Do you have recommendation for a good Class 6 MicroSD card? SanDisk don't sell anything higher than Class 4. I tried Kingston Class 6 and my Nook Color just spit on it... :(

I am currently running trancend 8gb class 6. Havent had any issues with froyo, HC or Cm7 booting or running.

I'm using a A-Data Class 6 16Gb card with no trouble. I do have 2 Kingston Class 4 32Gb cards and they have the issue with the decrypt garbage when you try to boot up HC from the sdcard. I've also got a Class 10 32Gb Wintec card which I have not had time to test out yet as I just got it the other day.
[Nook Color General] danootz:
After a failed Kingston 16gb class 10, I got a SanDisk 8gb Class 4 and it's speedy enough. I notice very minimal slow down on some menus but I don't know if that's just the OS itself (being a preview after all)
[Nook Color General] lanwarrior:
That's the exact same card I have, and you did NOT experiences any of the slowness I posted in my 1st thread?
[Nook Color General] cobalt15:
How drastic is the difference between Class 2 and Class 4?

I know that it says that it processes twice as fast, but is it noticeable? Can somebody give an example of when you can actually tell the difference? Playing music, watching movies, booting from microsd?
[Nook Color General] chisleu:
I have a Sansdisk class 2 8gb card that performs just as well as my class 10 Patriot 8gb (which has booted both HC and currently used as storage for my eMMC CM7 install.)

Sansdisk severely underrates their SD's and many other manufacturers overrate theirs. It is not a perfect rating system.

I would recommend going w/ sansdisk in whatever size you can afford. Class 2/4 will be plenty fast.
[Nook Color General] derekr:
Before I switched back to Froyo I was running off the SanDisk 8Gb card from BestBuy - $20 - which I found very responsive. I think it is Class 4, but I could see any label on the card itself or the package.

The SD card speed was not the reason I switched back, it was the lack of other features in HC preview. I can't wait for an AOSP release :-)
[Nook Color General] wildkarrde21:
8GB Cards

I currently have 2 8GB microsds that I switch between:

-Transcend 8GB Class 6 running Honeycomb from Amazon. Tested it with h2wtest and got 16MB/s write and 14MB/s read. (Not sure if that is a typo on the tool or not and it's supposed to be bits instead of bytes, but that's what it says).

-Sandisk 8GB Class 2 running Nookie Froyo. Tested at 14MB/s write and 18MB/s read.

Both cards run their respective ROMs well, so it seems to jibe with what chisleu said about Sandisk underrating their cards. I could also be limited by the USB adapter I was using, but I had another adapter that was limiting it to 4MB/s both ways.
