Im screwed - Vibrant General

stuck on team whiskeys stupid gingerbread demo FOREVER because odin wont recognize my phone and ive tried everything....so i guess i can get used to gingerbread (that doesnt work)....

Ill buy your phone for $100

If you are running Windows 7:
Make sure you right click on Odin when you start it up and select run as admin. also, reboot your system and hit F8 to get the safe mode options, then select to disable driver signature enforcement. That made my Odin actually start working and flashing.

Hehe you flashed an alpha ROM and crying,*****ing about team whiskey here? dude read the stickies and get a life

Ignore the lame-ass troll comments, If you want help and did not find in the stickies, then you will need to post more info in order for us to help you, need the things you have tried and what was the outcome, Then we can maybe help, but there is not enough info in this post to really help.

Did you delete the original mms.apk and replace it with the one you want. Using root explorer makes it easier
Here try flashing this zip file ive attached
Trying now.
You do mean flashing thru clockwork right ???
I tried flashing this zip .. It removed the original messaging app no icon.. But didnt install the fascinate one
Yea that's odd? Try using root explorer and see if that works. I'm not at my laptop right now to try it out

im gonna try root explorer .. I think it has to do with the actual mms.apk . Maybe it needs to be fixed.. Cause to my knowledge other apks that are transferred from another rom dont always work and need to be fixed or modded so they dont force close.. =( thank u for your effort i hope u get it working !

LMFAO.
That was great.
As far as a solution to a not so savvy user. Use the sdx app. First copy the fascinate mms to your sdcard in the sdx backup folder. Then remove stock mms then restore faginate mms. Personally I use the eclair mms with no limit mod and inverted. (Black)

Root and Rom

Hello can someone one point me in the right direction to root a buddys X and flash a Rom and what Rom u suggest ??
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The easiest way to root your phone is to use Z4Root, I believe it is still in the Market. After you've rooted, the easiest way to ROM is simply go to one of their threads here, and follow the directions for that very ROM. All three of Apex, Fission, and Liberty are good. It's a matter of personal preference. Remember to wipe when they the instructions to tell you to do so, and always make a nandroid backup.
Oh BTW, when you use Z4Root, you have to be patient, it can take a long time, and sometimes it simply takes one or few tries. Just let it run, and if like 15 minutes and it's still sitting there doing nothing, pop out the battery if it's frozen, and just restart the app if it isn't.
I suggest you use liberty. 1.5. It has many customization options that I enjoy. But fission and apex are also very good roms
Guys can u plz tell me where to get the roms plz doing this for a friend

Hello

Hi
I have read over and over again on how to root and still not understand it. I read wiki and for some reason I dont know if its my computer or my phone anyway I would really really appreciate any help you can give a noob. I have downloaded the froyo eco5. And it stinks and I would really like to learn how to install a custom rom. I used to be able to do it on my Samsung Omnia but that was easier. Im going to be on all afternoon so if someone has the time I would really appreciate it
Thanks
Jeff
Well if u want to root there's a 1 click root in the dev section I would say do the one with clockworkmod 3.0.0.6 it converts u to ext4 and most roms now require clockworkmod 3 anyways. Make sure u read good and have a rom ready to flash cuz if u do cwm3 when u first boot into recovery it will convert u to ext4 and u have to flash a rom right afther its done. DO NOT REBOOT THE PHONE until u flash the rom that is very important. Good luck buddy

Watch these videos, if you still can't get it just give up
Don't turn off your phone unless nothing is happening for at least 10 minutes, make sure you have USB debugging on in Settings>Applications>development and do not hit "Connect USB" when using one click root.

How is that not answering the question? Your original question is if kenia lets OP take the credit for the port. OP's answer is that he is not taking credit, and he clearly gives kenia credit in the first post of this thread. /facepalm
Obvious troll is obvious.

You say in the instructions you can come straight from CM/MIUI, which is what he is asking.
Honestly, it would be a lot easier for them to just download the latest (or just any) CM nightly, and then install this over it. Less downloads, no Odin, just 2 installs and you're set.

My question was in no way meant to be sarcastic or demeaning.
It was meant to get two questions answered. A) if you had seen the thread and/or at least glimpsed the thread and b) if you had attempted to understand the topic at hand or just take a shortcut and have people do the legwork for you.
That is all I was trying to find out, and depending on the answer to my post, then decide on where to start you off at.
