hey um i used galaxy s tweaker after using the root on here. i did the battery change and it rebooted. its stuck at the samsung screen. i know it created backups. please oh god help me.
When in doubt ODIN out.
This is not a joke message, if you are stuck/bricked or something, you can use the ODIN method to start again. Hope that helps
You might need to reflash your kernel, read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773032
And be careful with apps like that... The first two pages of comments are basically all claiming it bricks phones, the description text says (in screaming caps) to do a nandroid backup before using it, and the feature you used says "EXPERIMENTAL"... Also, just because it says Galaxy S, doesn't mean it's thuroughly tested on the Epic.

The nice thing about these latest phones is they are much harder to REALLY brick. Mess up, that is easy, but with ODIN and a little reading you can almost always get it working again.
I remember my days in early Windows mobile, on those phones it was easy to REALLY brick a phone while doing a ROM upgrade.

Curious to know what apk is best to use to get you into 3.0.0.5 recovery? Currently quick boot gets me into 3.0.0.3 but 3 finger death grip gets me into 3.0.0.5
Not a development post, this forum is for development and releases only if you want to ask a question... see that sticky up at the top that says "Ask your Questions Here"?
Try using that sometime.
And don't give me any BS about "but no-one will see it" or "i didnt want to read all those posts" cuz frankly I don't care what you felt like doing, rules are rules so follow them.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask for heldlp on flashing my phone. My phone is rooted and I have rom manager installed on my phone, what else do I need or that's it, and were do I find roms for my phone? I would use rom manager but I need to pay to get to the roms.

you should start here...

has lots of useful info for someone who is new.
also, team whiskey (one of the premier development teams for vibrant) has a great installation guide on their site..
http://www.teamwhiskey.com/guides.html
that should get you started. be sure to read thoroughly, use the search function at the top of forum when in doubt, and make sure you feel confident in what you are doing. it will save lots of headaches for you and the people you ask for help later.
good luck!

I was flashing my phone for the first time several weeks ago and I found this guide extremely useful, it may be a little outdated now but hopefully it will help you as much as it helped me.
The entire process is not very hard at all, its mostly a matter of having (a little) patience. Don't worry too much about it all, you can't really screw up.
If your phone is hardware locked, make sure you can boot into download mode before you flash.

lmao wow by far one of the best ideas I have seen here in the forums.
not that i don't entirely agree with some of the sentiments of the more senior members, but i was a complete noob w/ my 1st smartphone not too long ago so I can see how someone coming into this now after all of the DL09/EB01/EB16 releases can be overwhelmed...
so here's a link to a thread on android central with exactly what you are looking for
http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...ks-roms-themes-kernels-updated-3-17-11-a.html
... a LOT friendlier with a handful of senior members that seem to be on always to walk noobs through
you won't get as many comments that, although may be true and one should take note of, doesn't contribute at all to what you asked.
Again, everyone is entitled to their opinions on a forum, so I'm not making any attacks toward anyone, but I feel like you know when your comment doesn't help the OP and only helps you feel better about walking into a post that annoys you... and maybe consider that there are people of all different ages and lives that may not allow for hours upon hours of catch up reading

While I agree that if such a form existed... at the end of the day it most really be useless.
People will still have the same questions about this and that rom, and term, and version of phone.. etc... and if you combine ALL those answers into one form, well I would maybe make it too the third or fourth page before I give up and move on. Like a lot of forums now, some are a thousand pages.
I'm sure many people will agree the next scenario, which I find myself in a fair bit. You just soft soft bricked your phone, or something new is released... 20 min later you're sitting down with 5 or 6 browser windows open, each one has 20 tabs, and you have 30 new bookmarks made just case there something you might need later from one those pages.
lol... i tell you guys, its awful messy sometimes.. Especially when a friend gives me a phone he bricked and I've never used the phone before.

He has been bumping dead threads for the past couple days and judging by his name "1997" that is prob the year he was born.....need i say more.
Wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to unlock OEM for the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G model G988U1 (z3q) and flash a custom ROM to it. I'm aware that certain models don't allow this and I'm hesitant to test it out from the posts that I've seen describing how to do it. I saw the same thing for my model of the Note 9 and soon after found out that it's not possible for my model of it. If anyone can confirm whether or not I can and provide a link to a thread that includes the sources to what I need or links directly to the things I need it'd be much appreciated.

Well I'm glad you didn't post in the development section because this isn't development is common sense! Unrevoked hasn't been updated to work for 2.3 yet.

I was rooted with unrevoked but had to unrooot for a repair. Got my phone back but repair center updated to the ota available. Tried unrevoked again but I get the same message and now I'm stuck unrooted.

i know what i want now. i rooted my phone so how about some suggestion
best way to backup phone
what are your most used apps would like to try some you use
i looked but cant find in setting menu how to make the ringtone play normal
- Get CWM backup, to full backup your device, if you have used ghost/acronis for your PC, it is just like that. another is titanium backup, My backup Pro
- Its depends on your taste, As i always have >100 non stock app on my device, difficult to say which one you like, just search market for different category
- I don't understand your question, but i guess you saying about ascending ring tone??
if yes, there are some mods/ROM available to disacble it. find in development section.
You dont need to root your Note to make it better. It is perfect as it is. Dont listen to these guys wanting you to root unles that is what you want of course
You are already late m8
If you had carefully read 2 post above yours, you cud find, he has already rooted.
