I am a noob to this phone, but not a noob at rooting things. My question is I go through these forums and see .apk things that are awesome. I will not install if it requires root, but can I screw things up by installing an .apk that needs root on a non rooted phone. I understand it won't work, but will I mess my phone up.
I ask these questions because back in the ol day with the G1 rooting was pretty new thing (easier), but with all these android running phones and more work to root the last thing I want to do is screw my phone up installing some of these .apks.
I appreciate all your help. If this has been covered before please guide me to a link.
no they will do nothing
If y are not a noob at "rooting things" how can u not know that it wont do anything. Its just an app like any other. It just wont function without root access. Don't be afraid to ask if u are a complete noob, we have ALL been there.

Haha.. Thanks boys for the reply. As for the noobieness, yeah you could say that, but when I started rooting my G1 things weren't this far advanced. I haven't ventured into rooting this cause I am scared and I will think it about it more once (if ever we get Froyo.)
Thanks again.
Well glad that's outta the way. This phone has files to recover it fully and nothing short of flashing something in the "phone" portion of Odin cab actually brick this phone and that can now be fixed sans SMS messages. Either way, read up, dive in, enjoy.

So far i havnt been able to have someone help me out.
So here is the deal.
Im on .57 rooted. I did it by rooting it through gladroot.
My problem is when i try to update to the new patch, my phone reboots and then stays at the green guy with the ! in the triangle, and doesnt do anything.
So my question is how do i update my phone? Do i have to flash it? if so how do i flash it back. Can i get some detailed instructions in whats going wrong. Thanks alot
I am going through a similar problem, help would be appreciated

removed bloat? i dont believe so.. dont know what that is lol.. any ideas?
Ima Noob.
Okay i tried updating but i get the triange and the exclamation mark and im pretty sure whats keeping me from updating is my uninstalled apps so can anyone give me the apks for Vlingo, Help Center, and Voice Commands and can you tell me how to reinstall them properly???!?!?! PLEASE i dont really wanna do a factory restore...
Why would that have anything to do with it? is that the problem? i have loads of uninstalled apps.. should i just flash it?
I apologize for another Brick thread. I must've been fairly careless when doing it but this morning i casually started going about installing ICS on my Nexus S GT-i9020A
Firstly, I tried installing the rom through CWM where it aborted installation for some reason multiple times. I was originally using CyanogenMod7 Rom. I tried reverting to the stock Gingerbread and that wouldn't work either for some reason. After this, i formatted the SD card using CWM. I finally found a rom that installed using CWM. Now once done, I rebooted the phone and since then the phone is dead. No combination of buttons has worked. No fast boot, not even The Linux based tool which i tried using. my phone is not even detected by the computer niether in Windows or Linux
Any help guys?
Have you tried removing the battery for at least five minutes, then reinserting and boot into recovery?
Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397393
If the phone is charge when you connect power cable, than isn't dead....
You could try Download Mode and Odin3. Press on vol up and vol down while conecting the USB cable to the PC and your phone should be in Download Mode. Then you could flash a bootloader (and the via fastboot a firmware) or an entire firmware (hope I'm correct) straight via Odin3.
Thank you so much guys. I have tried the button combos and have even used the Linux tool. the computer doesnt detect the phone at all. The battery seems to get warmer though after having it connected for a while. I am pretty sure i have to go down the Transistor USB jig method. Thank you so much againg guys

That's pretty unfunny. Guy bricked his phone and all you can do is tell a pretty lame joke.
Anyway, OP: Was it your fault that it bricked? I am just asking so that other do not make the same mistake if it was.
You could ask your carrier for replacement. Say you were updating OTA and it wouldn't turn on after

He has manufacturer's warranty if its less than a year old from his date of purchase. Go to your carrier, if they can't help call samsung.
Of course this is worst case if you can't get it working again...which sounds like the case.

My friend asked me to root his samsung galaxy for him. He doesn't have a sim card in it and it is running 2.2 froyo. I have tons on experience rooting and ROMing my Droid x2 from Verizon and my Acer tablet but I don't know where to begin on this phone. I read the sticky and I've been researching for the past week and have still yet to even get the correct drivers. My friend needs it tommorow, and he already gave me some money to do it for him. If any one, any one at all could link me to the drivers for the phone, and how to root it (prefferebly not through adb) or if you can do it without hooking it up to the computer, I would be eternally greatful! All I need to do is get the phone rooted and get a recovery on there. Somebody please help! Thanks guys!!!

Galaxy s!!! When it boots up it says world phone too, if that makes a difference
There's a bunch of different galaxy s phones. Start by making sure you know which one it is and just reading all the stickies threads. I don't have any experience with galaxy s phones though so I might not be much help but ill do what I can.

Dude,
Get an Gingerbread Stock version of Gingerbread (see www.sammobile.com) I recommend I9000_JVZ and download-it. then flash-it. You cand find step-by step how on this forum.
After you flash it you can flash wwith odin the proper version fot CF-Root from chain fire (it should be with the same extension _JVZ or _JVT, because it is working just fine).
If you do not fing them send me your mail and I wil upload them for you. All of them.
Can you email me? Looking for some more personalized help and I need yo get this done today. [email protected]
