Database Develop

[Q] Install Blocked, Phone does not have option to allow "Unknown Sources"

I went under settings, applications, and I do not have an option anywhere under any of the menus including development menu to allow applications to install from unknown sources. I have done everything in the Captivate User guide(rooting,backup,recovery).
I am trying to install market enabler.
Phone is Rooted.

Go to the development section and look at the sticky called enable sideloading. Or you can load the stock rom and use sre and it will enable it for you.

Did you mean the "[How To] Enable Non-Market apps on Captivate (consolidated)" Sticky?
I am not exactly a power user yet. That was a whole lot of impossible for me.

Yes you found the right thread. You are going to have to get very comfortable with terms in threads like that if you plan to flash or modify your phone

SRE! I think it is suggested to un-root first. Check the sre thread, its a rom and kernel that roots, overclocks, removes bloatware if you want, unlocks tethering, installs busy box, installs app to fool the market so it thinks you're on another network and opens the ability to install unknown sources all in one update.zip.
Flash to stock with the odin one click and rename the sre file to update.zip and reboot into recovery and reinstall packages you'll have everything you ever want in a phone. For now.

I know all too well about that feeling after having my HTC Blackstone, From Winmo 6.1 - 6.5.5 and TF3D-Sense.

If you are having problems have a look at unleash the beast. It has an easy way to add sideloading. It also adds many other useful features.

No you can be rooted as long as your on the stock rom. I've flashed back and forth from sre to another rom a few times and as long as your on the stock firmware its fine if your rooted. Matter of fact I would recommend rooting stock, then clockwork mod recovery nandroid backup of stock rom before moving on to another invade there are problems. If you use Odin beforehand, I'm pretty sure it will wipe your backups making them useless. ymmv

I am having the same issue. When I try to install an app it says "Install blocked for security, your phone is set to block installation of application not sourced in Android Market". As a safty feature it will not let me install any file/app that was not downloaded from the market place. How did you get it to work? My friend has the same phone but thru verizon, he said all he had to do was go into settings/applications and uncheck some security feature. Please help.

Thank you. I finally got this to work as far as I have the Super User app installed on the phone. I thought if I had this then the phone is def rooted yet when I try to delete ATT bloat ware it still won't let me.
Is this only because its still running the factory 2.2 froyo. Will the full SU benefits be there one I flash whatever ROM he wants on Monday ?
And what is the best rom for the cap ? I have the Eris running a GB rom that I love but I'm sure this phone is different

go to the market, download titanium backup. use that to uninstall, unwanted bloat...you cannot use the native package installer/uninstaller to remove system apps.

My personal preference... Firefly.
The Gingerbread ROMs are still Beta.

ok i have to agree... firefly...

Thanks all. I don't think it's going to matter since when I reboot into recovery I do not have the option to "flash zip from sd card". I got it rooted, installed rom manager and flashed clockwork but to no avail. This all seemed to go so smoothly when I did our eris phones.
I have his "wireless tether" working and was able to delete a ton of ATT bloatware but I think he's going to stuck with the stock ATT 2.2 ota rom.

As you have already been told in this thread you need to make sure you have modified your 3e recovery to allow cwm to work.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z

Check out TRusello's signature "3e recovery fix" also after you boot into recovery from rom manager you have to "reinstall packages" twice, then you will see all the options...

you need to reinstall packages in recovery twice.
also you need the to fix 3e recovery before you can flash the cwm .zip.
look @ the stickies in the general section. there is a thread on working around 3e recovery. it contains a link to a batch script that'll fix it
there is also odin(tethered) that can replace the kernel with one that has cwm baked in
and sgs kernel flasher in the market that can do the same from the phone as long as it's rooted.

bit.ly is great...

New to Rom Flashing - URGENT Help needed!

Hi all,
Sorry if i sound stupid, but I am new to all of this. I am trying to flash a gingerbread ROM onto my Rogers branded captivate. Currently I am running Rogers stock Froyo.
I have rooted and unlocked my phone using one click root, and the SGS unlock tool from the android market. I have also applied Ryans OCLF. I have busybox installed and the lasted version of Rom Manager.
However, every time i go to backup my stock rom using rom manager, nothing happens. I try to first flash the Clockwork Mod recovery, select the Captivate file and let the phone reboot, black screen with a yellow exclamation point in a white triangle with a Droid device laying under it. It will sit there forever until I manually restart the phone, at which point it acts fine.
I have backed up using titanium backup but cannot do it thru ROM manager. I have read countless forums, but it havent found a solution that works.
So i decided to proceed without a backup. I tryed to put the phone in download mode using the buttons so that I can flash it using ODIN but it doesnt go into download mode using any of the buttom press methods. I have tried to reinstall the packages from the boot menu, but i then get an error saying "e: failed to verify whole signature...."
I have also put a copy of the recently leaked gingerbread rom on my SD card and tried to install the ROM using rom managers install ROM from SD card, but i get the same black screen with yellow exclamation point and nothing happens until i maually start the phone.
I have no clue what I am missing? How to fix this? I have read and watched so many tutorials, followed all the steps. THey seem so easy on paper, but nothing that is supposed to happen, happens for me. Anyone have any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?
Please help!!

You need to follow installation instructions in the thread for whatever GB rom you are installing TO THE LETTER.
Which one are you trying?

You need to search for fixing the 3e recovery. 3e won't let you install custom roms. Also rom manager is just a gui interface for clockwork mod so in. wouldn't use it

I was trying to install the Official Gingerbread 2.3.3 for Captivate that was just leaked for the ATT captivate. I beleive the build number is I897UCKF1.
I do remember seeing the 3e recovery in the boot menu. Thanks alot, I will try to find a recovery fix and try that, then post the update.
Thanks alot for the suggestions so far. Its greatly appreciated!

Please for the love of all that is good in the world, do some research before you brick yourself for good. All of your issues would have not happened had you read more first before jumping in. I have seen far to many of these types if threads lately. Yes it takes a few hours to go through the threads but you save yourself the time you would spend (sometimes days) fixing your mistake.

Your absolutely right, I did ALOT of reading, been doing so alot over a few weeks. Unfortunately, (or perhaps, I did not do enough digging) none of the tutorials, even the ones for beginners that i found on this forum mentioned anything about finding a fix for the 3e recovery. No one mentioned that the 3e Recovery bundled with the Rogers version of Froyo did not allow the install of custom roms, it also did not allow backups. Thanks to Crystalhand for letting me know this.
Anyway i found this link which helped:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909213
I am FINALLY able to make a full backup image of my stock ROM and apps using CWM. This puts me more at ease now knowing i can also revert to stock if i install a rom that is not working properly for me.
The backup is completing as I type this. I will update again once I am able to install the gingerbread Rom I wanted to install.
Thanks again to all of you for the help!

that backup is not to restore the stock rom directly from whatever you flash. that is an imaage of your set up on stock rom. so you have to use odin to flash back to that stock rom you are on then restore that backup and it will be like you never flashed anything at all. if you just restore that backup onto the custom rom you flash it will not work properly.
the app backup your making with titanium backup will restore your apps on whatever you flash, but the rom backup doesnt work like that.

I would suggest using designgears odin 1 click, becuase no offence but you seen new and that would be least likely way for you to hard brick going to gb... Good luck

Flashing is usually easy and safe (for the most part). But if something happends and it gets bricked u could always make/buy jigs. Easiest way to make I've seen is
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841512
Or you can buy them for about $8 maybe more depending your location (making em can cost less). The only thing I haven't tested the jig with is messed up bootloaders, example flashing gb bootloaders and flash froyo secundaries, everything else the jig works (atleast my experience)

[One Click]Updated!!! LG Revo All in One Pkg for Root, CWM 5.0.2.7, and Unroot

This is an All-in-One package to Root and install CWM Recovery or to UnRoot and install the stock recovery. I have spent many hours trying to modify this to be as easy as possible for all to accomplish their goals whether by modding or returning to stock.
What is This?
This is an exploit built by the Revolutionary team, that was ported to the Esteem by djrbliss, then I was able to fix permissions and install su and superuser. The exploit is not built by me, rather by the Revolutionary guys. This zip contains the proper drivers for the Revolution, all root files, and the Root&Recovery.bat file. The .bat has been modified to fix ANY of the problems people are having with root, and will make it so that CWM will stick through reboot. It installs the newest versions of the su binary and Superuser.apk. It will also install ClockWorkMod Recovery also (no need to run RevoToolkit anymore). The unroott will uninstall and delete the su binary and remove Superuser.apk. It will also remove CWM and install the stock ZV7 recovery.img. If there are any problems, just let me know.

How Do I Root and Install CWM?:

2) Install drivers if not already installed

Ive downloaded what i think are the correct drivers. ive got the version of C++ it wants as well as the driver and it just wont root. so please can Anyone help??????

Whats your "end-game"?
Do you just want root? or are you planning on using a custom rom? CM9 maybe?
For myself, I just wanted to jump to CM9, so I just jumped in with heimdal, then flashed over CM9... no rooting or anything!

Hey it was to try custom roms i read there was a decent ics rom but i havent gotten into cm9. I downloaded the galaxy tab cubed rom and everytime i tried loading into hiemdall it said tar header invaild file size so i gave up for now

If you are on GB 2.3.3 or lower you can easily root r tab with the above methods. But I thought everyone's favorite was doomlord's script?
GB 2.3.5 and above is unrootable with the methods you mention.
There are two ways you can go. The easiest one is to install pre-rooted kernel for sch-i800 or other CDMA models.

I tried doomlords script woth no luck as well. I am running 2.3.5 so ill have to root with a kernal? Also what did hammerfest meam when he said he flashed cm9 without rooting?

4: Flashed AOKP (more for the update for CWM)
5: Flashed CM9
If I cared to go through the pain again of going stock then reflash, and licked the sound of my voice when recorded, id do a video...but I dont want to and I dont like it, so... Sorry?
