I was wondering if there was anyway to root without sd card mine says can't mount i took it in to sprint store and they said it had corrosion on sd card slot due to water damage in which I dont think so cause I have never wet it but it is a refurbished one I did not know that maybe it came like that any help?? thanks
You can with universal androot app (search the net, it's not in market). You'll have to download on pc and use adb install. But no custom roms for you.

I would call and raise hell that it never worked from day one! I am on my 4th hero by calling for a replacement, haven't spent a dime yet, no insurance either!
Actually if you get rooted u can flash custom roms just down load them threw ur phone web browser I do it all the time or from your pc download what ever rom or mod u want and email it to what ever account you have set up on ur phone I do this all the time but only over wifi with the phone browser hope this helps good luck

Read that article and the link to the Unix command I'm puzzled on how this will enable someone to flash a rom without an SD card??? I thought u could by email or the hero's web browser and I was wrong I tried every way I could think of but no go because as I found out everything u download from you email and browser goes to ur SD any input will b appreciated thanks this is something that might b useful to some people thanks in advance

This is what I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804296
Read that as well and thanks for the response but that's just how to root and while it is quite helpful I was more on the line as if a person who had no use of the SD one root is gained how would such a person then go about flashing customs roms thanks for the feed back and any input is more than welcome like I mentioned earlier this is something that I would personally like to know thanks in advance

I was in class, pulled out my captivate, went to look at some pictures. They werent there. Got me curiois so I went into the file explorer to see what was up. My external sd no longer has any understandable files on it. All of my photos, music, videos ANYTHING are not there. It has all been replaced with gibberish, random letters, numbers and symbols. The only file still there is LOST.DIR, and it too is filled with nothing but numbers from 4 to 94xxx.
WHAT HAPPENED? Please offer some advice if you can. I had lots of very special pictures from deployment and my wedding on that card.
Im running Cog 2.2 beta 8.1, using oclf. The only two things really done to the phone.
Ive noticed over the last few days, recently installed apps would disappear, id download them again and the data/progress would still be there.
Please help of you can, can the files be recovered? What happened? How do I prevent it from happening again?

Sounds like your card is bad. Did you leave it in while flashing your phone? That can cause an issue.
If your PC has a card reader and you have an adapter for it you may be able to recover some of your stuff.

I was worried that may be the problem. Any suggestions on a good recovery program. Dont care if I have to pay, these files are priceless
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I wish I knew. Do you have a card reader on your PC? I think you should be able to just view what is on it when inserted into your PC with an adapter, it should be visable as a drive, just browse it. I am not 100% certain of the process for restoration.

Glad you contributed in a way that helped OP...
OP, What steps have you taken to try to eliminate things from causing the issue? What is your kernel etc... number of different things that could potentially cause a problem. Have you done a clean install (full wipe of dalvik/system) then install the rom and install nothing else and still have issues playing the video(s). Give us some details and we'll go from there
I had the same problem...

You have to set your rate lower...I can't remember on the top of my head, but it helps...not to be rude, but if you dig a little, you will find it using the search...it took me awhile, but I found it...also it gives you the correct size to use...my video now takes up the entire screen...
Thanks for helping my kernel is 2.6.29.6-cyanogenmod [email protected] #3 I installed this rom through rom manager and unless tht wiped everything tht needed to b done.. ill have to try tht in a Manuel reboot correct? And I apologize for any possible wrong area post or repeat post. I tried looking for other people having this problem but I was unable to locate people with similar issues I used the search option in the xda app and I didn't locate any topics tht looked like they would relate.. further more I was more concerned tht the lack of certain video file playback might of been an issue with the rom rather then something else I have posted on other sites and topics but no one has helped

Ignore the guy that was being a **** about the search, does the youtube app play video? if so then as previous posted had replied the framerate and encoding etc maybe too high for the hero to play back, check that
I do have the froyo version of the YouTube app and tht plays with no problem... let me chx tht frame rate issue real fast be right back

Ok I just finished looking at everything I could. Possibly relate to frame rate adjusting.... I had no luck finding anything bout adjusting "framerate" the closes I got was in adw launcher settings and it let me adjust the frame rate for Wht I think were just for the launcher... do u know where I go to adjust tht? This also made me think are my videos are what is causing the problem? Now when I was on HTC - sprint 2.1 I never had an issue with them.. but do u think they are to high/low in quality to play.. cuz after ripping the episodes onto my computer I uses psp9 to convert them into mp4 at the lowest setting ...

When I ran CyanogenMod in the past I had problems playing .mp4's from time to time with the stock apps.
OP - Have you tried any third party apps via market?

Ok i am running a mac and have my nook beautifully running honeycomb via sd card.
I got to put market on and my mac will not show my nook under connected devices when i type the command in terminal: ./adb devices.
this is what it shows:
nic-cornells-macbooklatform-tools niccornell$ ./adb devices
List of devices attached
nic-cornells-macbooklatform-tools niccornell$
What the hell i have been working at this literally nine hours, countless post/forums/cigarettes/suggestions.
ADBwireless WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE YOU WOULD NEED MARKET TO BEGIN WITH WHICH I DO NOT HAVE AND AM TRYING TO GET IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Anyone with usefull info post.....i swear do not post TRY ADBWIRELESS.
I am a noob at this but, could you try installing the file from the sd card, or is it taken up by the HC?

I was about to tell you a very easy way to get ADBwireless on there without having the Market working first, but since you're not interested...
No, i do not have an explanation. However, if you will cool down and breathe a moment, we'll try to help.
First... nine hours....take a break. Frustration is the enemy.
Second, can you download the apk for adb wireless and sideload it. This would be the easiest.
If that fails..then search on the forums for the thread about getting adb working.

You may also want to sideload Astro file manager.

My solution:
Burn,Throw out, Dispose of said mac,
grab a linux/windows 7 pc
Now, now. No need to hate on the pie filling ( although, I do love my Linux Mint 10 machine).
Maybe, since HC is being this difficult for you, you should be sticking with rooted stock, or Nookie Froyo?

Did you modify your .bash_profile with your PATH to platform-tools? Your mac needs to know where to look...
yes sir i did, its alright a guy sent me a link to his dropbox and i was able to download ADBwireless app and it installed. now just gotta figure out what the commands should look like
I assume you mean to connect? In linux it is # adb connect (the ip and port number adb wireless gives you)

You need to check your sdcard on a PC to see if you nerfed it or not.
You can easily nerf your sdcard by not unmounting it before removing it from your phone.
And yes... Please,, if you have an issue, dont start spamming random threads, its not very becoming..
I followed the instructions in the first post in the guide on this forum for unlocking the phone for use on at$t. Have my staright talk sim and changed my apn, all data works fine when using any of the apps ike the facebook app or youtube or downloading apps from play but when i open the browser it immediately force closes. Was kind of annoyed but just thought i would download and try a different browser, that was a no go and 3 browsers later i still cant get any of them to work. Dolphin hd will open but when you put in a web address it fc. Any idea what i might have broken that all these browsers seem dependent on? Btw running a stock rom, havent gotten brave enough yet to try flashing custom roms. This was my first attempt at altering an android device so I'm trying to take it slow and earn everything i can to avoid becoming a bricklayer. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. If i have to i will take it back to factory and try again but thought i would give the experts a chance at educating the noob.
