OK...Let me first start by saying thank you to all the people here at XDA that have tried to help me with my new phone. I build themes for the Google Android Market and when I went to the HTC HD2, Windows was not helping me at all. Thanks to everyone I was able to, being a NOOB as you call it, flash my first NAND to my phone. It works great!! Sure there are a few bugs here and there but it is great.
Now there is an update. My phone will connect to the PC via USB, however when I try to run the DAF.exe to flash the update......no dice. I keep getting the same error.
Error happen
Read below for more information
Error Description: USB init failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (723)
My Radio is current, my MAGDL thingy is current as far as I know 1.11, and no one can tell me really how to get around this issue....well let me correct that....there is the way of starting I think from the beginning however that scares me to death considering I do not really know where to look for the Windows Stock rom to flash to my phone, and if I make a mistake and brick my phone.....oh man am I screwed.....oops can you say that on here? I mean in big trouble.
Anyway.....don't want to write a book, I know too late, just looking to fix the issue or just learn how to get around my USB connection issue.....Thanks again to everyone on the board, you are all great and very good at what you do.....I can never get over how smart the human race really is.......it is truly an amazing thing.....

I was linked to that forum, and i need some information
I want to root and i also, can someone tell me if it is possible to get rid of my text messages in my call log, anways can someone answer these questions?
1) how do i make a file on the Internal xd? is that the sd card that you can go out and buy or is it the one that when you go on like file manager on android assistant or even my files, that is the main folder there?
2)what is the difference between a ROM and a KERNAL?
3)does kies work for anyone else? mine always says that my device isn't supported on kies... i have the rogers infuse. I wanna know this because i wanna be able to back my stuff up in case i screw it up
4)was that accelerometer fixed yet?
5)I am a beginner at this rooting stuff but i did jail break ipods alot so i know a bit but almost all the rooting abbreviations i dont know. Anyways i got a thread called [q] Rooting guide - Infuse 4g and i wanna know how to do the stuff in there... Like is just doing this kernal thing going to help me get rid of the text messages in my call log or over/underclock my phone and get better battery life... Please someone help me i wanna root but i dont wanna screw everything up
Someone can probably answer all your questions better then I but yeah for Lies you gotta use Lies mini that's the only one that actually works with the infuse 4g. To make a folder on the internal memory just plug the phone into your computer via USB and select connect to PC from the drop down menu etc .. open it up and just create a new folder. Really simple. I think you may even be able to make one if your phone is rooted. The Rom is a whole package of the os running on the phone, can include kernal, modem, theme and many other changes. (Someone could probably define it better but definitley check the forums for info on what a Rom is) can usually make the phone faster too. The kernal I think is the base for the phone, not sure how to explain it. Do not ever ruin the kernal or you'll get bricked or atleast bootloops. AS for rooting I haven't done this yet on infuse only on my captivate. Hope this helped.

I honestly dont understand a single thing.... i need somoene to like do a skype chat or msn to step by step me through it cause for some reason, i dont understand anything... and i cant find kies mini... is that supposed to be able to back up all my stuff? cause i want that, and of course samsungs site is tooo confusing and i cant find kies mini download links anywhere -.-
thanks for the help guys
Kies mini just gets you the drivers so that your computer recognizes your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793528
Just a google search away.
Just to be completely honest, other than rooting your phone, you may want to stop there. Adding customized features/roms to phones isn't for everyone.
I did web development for years and I still play it cautious when trying out new roms, modems and kernels.

i cant find my phone in there... that is the us site and im in canada, and i look at the non us products section as well... anyways, what is the point of rooting if im not gonna do other stuff? Like i want to get rid of text messages showing up in my call log... if you know a better way, lemme know... that's the main thing i want right now... Im probably not going to do many customized roms or anythign that advanced, i just heard its really good to do cause its like getting a brand new phone lol... anyways thanks for the help
If you go in your phone app and click on call log, then press menu button there is a option there to clear log!!

for me when i got to the phone app, there is no call log, just says log... and it only has View by, delete and call duration... And view by only has all logs, miss calls dialed calls received calls, sent messages, and received messages... and delete can only delete everything, even if it could delete only text messages, i wouldn't wanna just have to do that constantly, cause i make alot of calls but i make like 20x more texts so i wanna just see my calls in what should be a CALL LOG... thanks for your input though
ok - I have a new Samsung tab2... P3100 - sadly, it is from China and I cannot seem to access anything I want, despite vpn and us simcard - I am sure there are a million ways around this if I spoke or read Mandarin... I don't. I'm guessing I need to Root and ROM, so am about to take the plunge ... I have today and tomorrow to mess around.
Fingers crossed.
Is this a bad idea?
Cheers

Ok - I think I have installed and rooted ... I think... Now I am downloading something form India - and hopefully putting in something new? right??? Sorry for such newbie questions. I am such a newb that it took me long time to realize that volume up and down seem to be the opposite to what is expected and described everywhere...

And the update ... I don;t know why, but the wholeROM won't go over to the SDcars via the usb ... I am bluetoothing it over ... I am such a noob, right? But over usb using the PTP (MTP won't discover the device) it cuts out just before the full file gets through. I have not long to go till the complete download ... then I should be able to internally just switch it over, surely? sigh. Wish there was someone out there to help.
Make sure the tab2 is Samsung genuine not a copy
Read as much as possible before doing anything not to hard brick it (nearly unrecoverable)
If the language is chinese try to flash via odin 1.85 for windows a stock firmware which carry your mother language found in www.samfirmware.com
If you are rooted you could try cm10 for 3100 (not any other) from www.teamhacksung.org , i use it now marvellous
Regarding copy to sd card try to use microsd adapter and sd card reader to copy firmwares and files to device
install kies for drivers and connection to pc and odin found in main samsung site

Thanks
Yee haw. I really didn't know what I was doing, except I knew it was a genuine product. Woot!
Ok, So I had to stop trying to get JB on it, but I managed to get the ROM? (maybe that's what it is called?) changed to an Indian on that I guess doesn't have the same internet restrictions. I now have 4.04 . Maybe I had that before, maybe not. But I can now definitely use google play with and without the VPN. Downloaded heaps of apps that I'd had on my HTC and am pretty happy overall. Have Feat vpn, Swype, and dolphin that make my Android life awesome.
My one sadness (I'm pretty tough to please) is that there is this app called Skritter that I've been using on my wife's iPad... Although the app says android BETA as well - no - it doesn't even come close to existence past Android 2.something. Skritter have given up on Android. And that saddens me, as it was the only app I had come across that really benefited my character learning I had hoped to use the 3G for this purpose almost exclusively. Sigh.
Mohamed, Bless you for responding.
For all those out there like me, who are not trained in Computer programming, there is a light (even with a Mac on boootcamp like me - I wonder if that was behind the usb driver problem). Yes, it cost me a whole day, but that was just part of the fun. So glad I didn't brick the thing too.
Actually, the process was lightning quick, except for the bluetoothing and downloading of the Large INdian ROM(?) And the inability to actuate the process due to glitches with USB and file transfers.
Also ODIN - nobody told me I needed to put in the PIT (?) file that came with something I downloaded. I stuck it in above the PDA section on ODIN and it worked... Was I supposed to I wonder??? At least the ODIN was merciful and I am ....
Absolutely amazed I managed it..:laugh:

So it doesn't need the PIT file popped in?
Cause it didn't work - then I popped pit file in and - bang hey presto - it worked. What is the PIT file for then?

hi all. and also a thanks to you guys who started and run xda you have saved me before now.
i have a few questions regarding my tablet and im hopeing some can help me. here i go
my mother bought me a tablet. im a pc guy but know nothing about linux and from what i read its basically it. the first problem is how can i find my tablet brand name type i know its called Mid. i am happy with it tbh it runs well and does what i need of it too which is browse the net and have pretty wallpapers atm . soon i want to get a odb program to plug it into my car as i have the hardware to do it and i know it has some software out there to do it. im having issues with play store saying cant verify my account or something to that effect due to me having a samsung galaxy ace and loggin in on my tablet is not being recognised so it wont let me download . even tried creating a new account and that didnt work neither same error. but i can still download on my phone. the tablet model just says softwinerEvb but i cant find much help on that. so my thoughts where to root it back up the o/s then try some stuff incase i broke it lol. but i cant seem to be able to root it. cant seem to back it up . and cant get on to play. not being able to use the play store is my biggest issue. if i could then i would be very happy. i was thinking that maybe changing the o/s might help?? but it seems that its the model its self is not supported?? so can i kinda trick things into working ?? ps i did try something called gapps but it didnt seem to help .
many thanks.
Mine wont boot
