Hi all, i am going to buy a SGT from amazon but before i order it i have few (a lot ) questions P.S yes i have read the sticky threads and please do not whine about googling!! ok so here i go
1. my current phone is samsung galaxy 3 and it is very resistant, meaning that it wont broke easily, so does the SGT break easily?
2. im not new to android but what programs do you use when you flash? (i have only used odin and CWM)
3. now what is radio? in galaxy 3 there is no radio... (i DO NOT mean the fm radio )
4. so is there going to be 3.0 update? or is the one in xda usable or just emulator port?
5. i live in finland and i dont have any clue about CDMA and GSM, what are those and wich one should i buy?
6. the tab im going to buy is EURO/international tab so i can flash every ROM here?
7. now i know that you can hard brick your device with flashing bootloader but is there any other way to hard brick it?
8 im going to buy this tab for mostly gaming (3D games) and i read that it can play tegra 2 games are they running smooth?
9. what is normal quadrant score? and what is quadrant when OC´d to 1.4Ghz
10. is 1.4Ghz overclocking safe?
11. what is modem?
OK so there was my questions please answer them and i will grant you with a "thanx" button press

Why you lie to us? Its obvious that you didn't search, and if you did, well, k0sh is your man!
But because im only %97 asshole..
1. I dropped my tab from around 6ft onto concrete, it landed on its corner, bounced, then the screen exploded.
2. You use the same apps but also heidmil *sp
3. I don't know, it probably refers to the chipset in the device.
4. No, there will never, ever, ever be an official honeycomb update, and the ports that are currently available are **** house at the moment, only time will tell
5. Well, you should really know this, do your devices take sim cards, if so they are GSM
6. No you cant flash every rom, you can only flash the roms labeled [GSM]
7. You can brick it by flashing the wrong rom, disconnecting the usb while its flashing, and by not following instructions.
8. You can play afew tegra2 games, and they run pretty good.
9. Cant remember, but quadrant dosnt mean ****.
10. Yes, ive been running my tab since 1.4ghz was possible, it only shoots flames now and then.
11. The part of the phone that allows you to use 3g/voice ect..
12. Search next time.

Well.. I use AT&T's 3G, as I live in the US. So, I had to "import" it from Canada. I already have a jailbroken iPhone 3G S. So, I really don't want another touch screen phone with the same form factor. The G1 has the physical keyboard and seems like it could make a pretty good back-up phone. Do you think it's pointless for me to keep this G1, even if I get the latest and smoothest ROM available???

The HTC Dream is the only phone with Android that I can think of that has support for AT&T's 3G network AND a physical keyboard. The BACKFLIP is coming out, but ... yeah, I'll pass on the whole MOTOBLUR OS. Also, what are my chances of bricking the phone? Seeing as I've never done this before and have no clue where to start.

You can worry about that later your jumping the gun already and your phone is still stock.
First you need to root and if your successful then you can worry about using roms.

Haha.. Alright, sounds good.
So.. How hard is rooting? Is there a tutorial somewhere?
Hello everyone, first post I'm an android noob, I love gadgets and cell phones, but am not computer savvy. I am almost ready to flash my first ROM onto my captivate, which is currently running android 2.1 update 1, OCLF v2.2+ Donate Version, autokiller, autostarts, and has touchwiz and Launcher Pro Plus (launcher pro is the default skin), but before I flash to a new ROM, I want to make sure I'm doing everything right to minimize the possibility of bricking my captivate. I think that is all the relevant information but let me know if there is anything else I should mention... I LOVE LOVE LOVE my captivate and I'm a teacher with more debt than income so I would really be quite sad if it bricks.
OK here's the rundown!
Clockwork Recovery
I don't really understand the different versions of Clockwork Recovery, but I know that I have *some* form/version of it on my captivate. I rooted using RyanZA's OCLF (MAJOR props to him; his app made me me fall in love with my phone/android in general) which I *think* made me get Clockwork Recovery, or maybe it was busybox. About a month ago I downloaded Titanium Backup, which I also *think* made me download Clockwork Recovery. Then I deleted TB about an hour later because at the time I didn't have any use for it (although I guess perhaps now I should get it back). Most recently I downloaded the "pro" or "full" or something version of ROM Manager (what a great app, I'm surprised something so essential isn't already part of android. I forked out the 5 bucks because, like RyanZA, the dev deserves the props if you can afford it, but nothing other than "free stuff" appears in the "download ROM" section, which sounded super convenient, and was supposed to come with the paid version... anyone know why this might be?), and I know for sure that I installed/downloaded/? Clockwork onto my phone through the ROM manager because I just did it like two days ago. --> OK I Just went into ROM Manager to look at it again and it says "current recovery: Clockwork Mod 2.5.1.2"
Anyway the reason I'm asking about this is because I remember reading a couple of different articles that said something like "make sure you have the right version of clockwork before you flash to a new ROM or you will brick your phone and you will never be happy and nobody will ever love you." However I might be thinking about busybox? which brings me to:
Busybox
To be honest I never even really understood what exactly busybox is but I think I read somewhere that, like clockwork, it said something like "make sure you have the right version of clockwork before you flash to a new ROM or you will brick your phone." I do not know if I have it on my phone or not, much less what version.
OCLF v2.2 Donate
So I am going to undo the lagfix, but not undo the root that came with the OCLF app that came with the app because I need it to stay rooted. Is this a problem? I switched the scheduler back to "cfq" because that was what it used to be, but I used "deadline" before I started planning the ROM flash. Fun fact: I have no clue what any of that means, but boy did it make things speedy
Which ROM?
I know this has been asked before and I know it comes down to preference, but given the information about the current state of my phone, is there a particular ROM that you would suggest? If that doesn't make sense, what I mean to say is, does anyone know if, for example, people who have at any point used a lag fix are predisposed to bricking their phone during a flash, or if people who run Clockwork Recovery can't use ROM x?
The biggest things that concern me are 1. stability 2. that the ROM is still supported 3. froyo 4. easy sync/integration with everything google (mail, maps, calendar, etc). I like a clean, elegant look and feel, but I imagine I can skin whatever ROM to my liking. I am leaning towards Cognition, simply because I seem to read that one the most often.
Thank you for any help, it is greatly appreciated
Any other advice out there or links to good guides would be great too
oh hey sorry one more thing, as long as I'm asking noob questions: I know that live wallpapers drain battery but I love the earth one with a black background, looks so damn good. Anyway does it drain the battery CONSTANTLY as long as it's the wallpaper or only when you're on the home screens and can actually see it?
thanks again guys!

ClockworkMod comes to you via Rom Manager. The reason you don't see the list of downloadable roms is.... they ain't none for that list. There are a few Roms, but they are not subscribed (or whatever) to that service. You gotta get 'em here from their respective threads in xda.

Make sure you can do the 3 button thing to get into recovery or download modes. As far as I know that's the only way you can really 'brick" your phone. Some cappy's can't do any 3 button combos from power off. This is bad as you can't get out of the loop into recovery. DesignGears has a post about this, with a fix if you have this issue. Find it, Read it, Know it. And stuff.
Get the androidSDK and learn about abd. Sometimes this can get you out of trouble when nothing else can. There are tons of references to it in xda and google will get you a ton of reading material. Beyond a single post in scope to explain that one. Here's a start: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
Familiarize yourself with Odin and Odin One-Click. Not sure where to point you there as I found my info slogging through the cognition beast...err... thread. Pretty sure you can find a couple threads by DesignGears in development that will get you the programs and get you started.

Damn it's a good thing you said that. I just tried it to make sure that I could go into recovery mode... I always assumed that I could...
I seem to be one of those people that can't go into recovery mode using the three button press method. What's worse is that I have a mac so I (think) I can't use odin either.
Does this mean I can't fix my phone is it soft bricks while flashing? I can't take that risk...
*sniff*
people say cognition is so cool too...

Dang. That sucks. Did you look for DesignGears thread on the 3 button issue? There's another one another guy posted but I don't remember who.
No Odin is bad yeah, if you soft brick. You can look at Heimdale (link to it on the Cognition DL page here). But it sounds fairly complicated. Might be fun just to figure it out and seein' as you're on mac it may be your only option. No idea where to send you to learn how to use it tho, just know that it can be used on a Mac.
Good luck to ya!

Thanks for pointing that out! It's WAY beyond my modest computer knowledge (I was using Terminal and typing in Unix commands, I'm sure it was all totally amateur, but I felt like such a computer bad-ass ), but now I actually have an option, where before I had none! Thanks!!
Yes, it's true. Tech savvy but appropriately cautious non-professional computer guy actually carefully read the forums for a month and a half, downloaded the right stuff, re-read the caveats, and then rooted his P1010. (with SuperOneClick, thank you shortfuse). I am right now staring at a black console window with the adb innards of the P1010 staring me in the face (I am as always extremely humble and not a little afraid of the power available to me in my fingers right now).
So, a huge thank you to all you xda-wizards who make all of this possible. I will continue to read, and learn from you. For all of us wizard-wanabees: take your time, read carefully, ask questions (smart questions are better than dumb questions), then check your gut, it will tell you when it's time to do the deed.
I dont have your model tab, just wanted to say nicely done. Kudos to you for reading the forums, and making sense of it all.

I succefully rooted by P1010, using z4root (permanent).
No problem found (except that I installed One Click Lag Fix with the temporary root and the system restated in a infinite loop, solved by a wipe from recovery mode).
Now with OCLF the Quadrant standard reached 1760+, from 800 or less.
NOW I am happy with my P1010 - before I was thinking about selling it...

Man, do you can change the font? from the config / screen?
Yes, we can!
The first time the system had a reboot - one of many bugs of this firmware, I think - the second time it has been changed without a reboot.
But it works.
I also successfully rooted- now we just need to manage to lure some devs over to actually get gingerbread on this thing. xD

So My girlfriend has Garminfone and there is no info on the internet at all on how to overclock or a custom kernel or anything really so i Have rooted it but would like to do more so i have done a lil research and will like to build Custom Recovery for the phone but before i start i thought i would post a thread here with all my Optimus one family that i trust and love to get some tips and hopefully even some instructions as the instructions online are hard to fallow ??? so anything ???
Can give a clear answer about that, because its different for most phones.
Some phones like our Optimus One have a recoverypartition, a phone like Samsung Galaxy 3 has not. It took some work to port CWM to that phone and mumbozver (an XDA-user on de Galaxy 3-thread) managed to port it to that phone).
Guess it's best to post a question in the main android-section for this
make "cat /proc/mtd" in "adb shell".
If there are error - porting will be hard

Well, if the guys on the thread I have linked are not even willing to team up to finally produce something after basically having wasted about a year on this without getting it even bootable... good luck with this.
I would personally suggest bricking the phone intentionally and claiming warranty. Pretty sure this junk has been EOLed so you might get a decent phone as replacement. (Though, you might be unfortunate enough to get a brand new replacement brick since the Garmin's stock must be full of these collecting dust. )

Im not the best in the develoment area but I do have a garminfone and enough sense to try and give a hand.
Help i think i have bricked my nexus one! It was flashing hboot and it fell of the desk, hanging on its cable and then popped off. Now it does not turn on. HELP!!!
Well.. Flashing a system/boot.img can't brick your phone, but flashing a corrupted hboot or radio can. And in your case, flashing a hboot was aborted, which means the installation is corrupted.
Sad to say, the only way you can fix this is by sending it to HTC for repair. They will probably see you've rooted the phone and all that, but they will fix it back to stock everything on your expense as this isn't covered by warranty if you had that.

150 bucks brand new? Dang. A brand new N1 costs roughly 300 bucks here. Whenever you buy a brand new item you get a warranty with which you can get a similar phone back or something equivalent if what happened to it wasn't your fault. Warranty is lost upon rooting/bootloader unlocking.
Are you sure that a second Nexus one costs just 150$?
If not, you could buy a RIFFbox or any other JTAG Device, altough they cost about 150$ too (and require some knowledge)

And mess with hboot again? I think it is (a bit) slow. And my games dont run on ics, so that makes it a useless device. (i bought it to play hd games, The same price as psp go.

Did you buy a Nexus One to play HD games? Then I'm sorry to tell you that you should have gotten a PSP Go instead. Nexus One is a great phone, it is, no questions asked, but the thing is; today's HD games require both a faster processor and GPU. Nexus one features a single core 1Ghz processor and an Adreno 200 graphics chip. It gets the job done for basic games but doesn't do well with HD games (or HD 3D games, if that's what you meant)

U mad bro? All hd games (GTA III, NFS: Hot Pursuit, The Sims 3, Real racing 2 etc.) Run lag free! So you must have worlds slowest nexus or something.

GTA III and Real Racing 2, lag free?
Why don't you upload a video of you playing GTA III and I'll judge exactly how lag-free it really is. I have played GTA III on my Nexus and it lagged beyond playability.

I don't think there is.
Out of curiosity, what ROM do you run? I ran CM7 at the time I tried GTA III.

Rocking CM7 rom with extreme smooth&stable kernel. Will try too record with one of my other crappy cellphone's, but i dont think a razr v3 is gonna give a clear impression
Got back to cm7, could not stand this horrible look like icrap thing. Reminds me of that iphone 3g that hit the wall....
EDIT: I will upload video tomorrow, it is time to sleep here. PS: Got it even smoother with chainfire 3d!
