A lot of people have not gotten it. Calm down before you give yourself a coronary.
i was able to find the cab but you cant use it cuase you have to activate it with a cell number that the actually gave it to....so i cant even use it!
Aargh!
So much redundancy, so little time...
How many threads do we need concluding that Skyfire can't be hacked?

I've read all over the forums that newer owners of the TP2 are not able to unlock their phones to enable ROM flashing. I've tried several suggestions but have not been successful. I am getting an error telling me '...we have detected that you appear to have already unlocked another device...' which is not true. I have submitted a ticket several days ago but it appears to be untouched. I've owned several HTC's before and have never had 'license' issue with a unlocker. Is there ANY way around this? Is there any other unlocker in existence? Can anyone verify they've been successful with the unlocker recently and if so, please describe what you have done in the process? I would love to help out the community with ROM testing feedback, etc. but I'm stuck.

Send them another ticket...they will reply...
well whatever. obviously, in my case the only way to get my 'free' license was to pay for it. I paid $6 bucks or whatever it was and I got my 'free' license rigth away
Don't know if this will help but I had a hell of a time unlocking my sprint touch pro 2. Tried just about everything I could find on all the forums - spent 3 months just trying to get the bastard unlocked. I too never had the problem previously.
I did donate and get a RhodiumWUnlocker and it would not work.
I also tried but could not get the SSPL-Manual-RhodiumW__V1_01 to work from the phone, it just locked up.
What I did seems silly, but it worked for me on mine.
I gave up using my main desktop that I have used for years for everything and grabbed a new/different Windows 7 laptop and installed the Hard SPL from there and it worked!!
I was then able to run the MightROM update.
I would try doing the flash/unlock from another machine. Had I not been so obstinate I could have save my self a butt load of aggrevation.
I now have the latest MightROM running with one major bug - got a corrupted 'HTC Sense Home' that I can't seem to get rid of - I tried the "MightyMike & LilRico PIMPstick Purple Full" and it jacked the Home all up. And it will not uninstall either!
Oh well.
But you might try from a different machine that's all I could recommend and I hope that helps.

Hello everyone. I want to thank you all for this site, I have learned a great deal here and appreciate all your efforts. I have a question that many new comers have asked and they have been told to go read, so thats what I will do. I want you to know tho that its very hard when you have a baby, and very little time. I also want you to know that the only times I am really productive getting somewhere with my phone is staying up till like 4 am because everyone is asleep and I have the time needed to dedicate to all this reading, trying and learning.
I am not complaining, in fact I am grateful because I am getting somewhere thanks to your help, which has been more valuable than all the help Samsung and Rogers have given me washing their hands clean and leaving me with a defective phone. My problem has not been solved just yet, but I think a 2.2.1 rom will fix my problem. Ill keep reading and trying, ill get there.
I suggest you guys have a wikipage with a table with all the roms, what versions of android they are, what kernels, modems, etc they work with ( or not work with ), bugs, features, something all in 1 page for easy access. This would make it easier for people to access information. The easier it is the more people will use them and come here, the more ideas you will have, the more testers, its a win win situation!
I have been to the pages for all the roms, some of them tell you the bluetooh voice dialing is not working, most don't, id have to go looking for my answer. I have learned that for instance it seems people do not have an issue with it with froyo 2.2.1 but again, some roms tell you in the main page its 2.2.1, others don't.
I can't grasp all the information staying up at night till 4 am. Its the only time I have. I almost had a heat attack when I thought I bricked my phone, I can't afford another one. If all the important information is right there on 1 page, like links to the usb drivers, tools, roms, kernels, everything. Have the instructions to flash. Have a table with all the roms, their versions, what versions of kernels, modems, etc, they do ( or dont ) work with. maybe even some of the table cells are clickable, for instance bugs, click on it and a window pops up with a list of them.
I know all this information is in here somewhere. Thanks to everyone for it, but it needs to be on 1 page. Please make it easier for people who are new to this. You will benefit as well as them. Looking forward to being able to use voice dialing. I think it will be working by tomorrow or after tomorrow thanks to you guys. I could have done it in a day if all the information was right there .
Thanks for reading.
Try searching.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-I897
I have that bookmarked. It is also a sticky in this section.
But it doesn't say for instance which ones are 2.2.1, or which ones have the terrible voice dialing over bluetooth..
I do search and end up with over 15 tabs...
I am getting by, I am just saying it could be organized better for everyones benefit. It could be made so someone who has never done this before can get it done in a couple of hours if even, without keeping asking you the same questions here. I understand why people keep asking to recommend a ROM. It is not they they do not search, not all of them anyway. Things can be better organized.
I hear what you're saying, I think it's just that within the course of a month, about 20 ROM's have been released, if not more. And no one has had time to update the wiki.

The thing is that its not just the number of ROMs, but also the number of versions that are released. It would be a real pain and an added overhead for anyone maintaining it.
Also note that most devs are working too, and doing this in their free time. The little time they have to spare is taken up for making improvements. But they do release changelogs to look into.
If anyone has time, I would suggest they take it up to create a wiki and maintain it, rather than relying or asking the devs to do it.
Try capfaq.com it has a ROM table section, and I've used it alot.
Same issues with being 100% up to date, but it's the best Rom table format I've seen.

Looks like they have updated it!
Thanks guys, I will check that table out tomorrow.
It'd be nice if there was a modem chart as well. I know there are modems in the modem thread
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835272
...but near as I can tell it's not up to date, or at least the first page is not up to date (ie base Cognition runs on JL1 and Andromeda on JL2, but aren't on the first page).
If anyone knows a good and current modem reference guide, please let me know.
I can't complain too much because obviously things change all the time and it's a PITA to constantly update info...I'd volunteer but I got a 2 year old and baby 2.0 due in April.

Yeah it's like Richter Scale difference at least 0 to 1, and 1 to 2 kids...people that have more than 2 are either really bad at birth control, Catholic, or gluttons for punishment.

How? What happened?
I have no Idea what I did wrong, my goal before I started was getting voice dial over bluetooth working for me, its essential to me. It started with trying to install paragon, as per http://www.capfaq.com/w/ROM_Table mentioned above.
I was stock rogers 2.2 so I wiped it clean, and tried the update thing, it didnt work. The only step I skipped was flash to stock and the master clear since it was 2.2 recently and I did the factory wipe. It did not work but I did not brick anything just yet. I figured most people tell you to flash with the one click odin which puts stock at&t on it. I did that and the phone stopped going into download and recovery, it did not stop completely i have gone into download and recovery a few times after that but it was a battle with my phone, since it was booting, I used adt instead which worked like a charm. at&t rom was not happy on my phone, it was going into at&t reboot loops where it would just reboot the bios over and over. after trying and trying it would boot android, i was trying to fix it but each time it restarted the reboot loop would kick off. I could not go to recovery or download mode till i finally got back into the OS and used adt to tell it to go to download mode where i reflashed my stock rogers.
My phone now had at&t logo on boot before rogers, which is not that bad but i had read you can get rid of it, i tried going into download mode with the buttons but didnt try too hard, adt was easier.
I was following these instructions :
http://www.mmacleod.ca/blog/2011/01/removing-the-att-boot-screen-from-a-samsung-captivate/
it wanted me to use odin to flash a file. I used my oden 1.3, i think he says oden 1.0, I didn't think it would make a difference.
Odin started to flash and said fail. I got the screen with "android ! computer", I have been there before when I first ever tried using odin and had to fight with my phone to get to download mode at the time ( this was before at&t ever came close to the phone, i never used odin before so i probably had trouble because of inexperience ).
anyway, this time no matter what I do I cannot go to download mode, I plan on making a jig today if i find someone who sells resistors in this little town.
any help would be appreciated. I dont want to put any more roms on my phone, i just want it to work. I am worried. Ill wait till samsung releases 2.2.1 I just want my phone back to the way it was when I bought it
As the person who write most of the documentation for Team Komin (the developers who make Andromeda), I would say this would be an immense pain. copying all of our information from the website, formatting it into wiki form and then posting it would be very time consuming.

True, but once done, it would be much easier to maintain and navigate. There is going to be a lot of crossposting and people asking for insight and advice.
I'm sure we all understand the search feature in the forum, but to be honest things change topic within a thread, and where someone asks a question that is somewhat unrelated and gets a very good answer, it is not always apparent by poking through page after page of posts to find that nugget of gold. I mean, searching for 'kernel' will give literally thousands of hits. A wiki would be much better in terms of 1. Where you are starting out from 2. what you need to do what you want 3. where to find these things, and 4. maintaining updates and version revisions.
I really appreciate all the work people do here, and I have had to find everything I wanted to know the 'hard' way, but as Android grows in popularity and market percentage, more and more people are going to come here looking for this information. Pobably better to do it sooner than later.
after numerous attempts i keep ending at the same problem. it keeps freezing at the same place, 99%. im trying to repo sync the 10.2 repos and its getting frustrating. i follow all the directions and always end up with the same result...freezing. somebody help me

I don't think this is the right forum to ask this question .. Per se.. But I think some of your projects might be still remaining.. Some projects like prebuilts.git are huge.. Around 1.5-2 GB in size and need to be downloaded at a go.. As they do not support resumable sync ability, hence you should just wait .. Probably.. Just a couple more projects left.. Let it download.

i did wait....for a couple hours i left it on but nothing. it just freezes. ...... anyhow, i gave up on the whole linux and building of a rom. it just didnt work out for me so im through.
So I've taken A-Teams work and elaborated on it because after 3 tries I've succeeded in rooting 2 of these Assurance Wireless devices.
And you will want to because they do spy on u for 1, and 2, the ADS are annoying. Plus its cool to Learn

well, i finally got the time to try this out, and about half way through pushing the new setup into the phone, the power switch on my strip got something dropped on it and killed power to the computer. now the computer won’t even recognize the phone.
im gonna mark this down as a failed endeavor, but through no fault of the process. it seemed like it was going to work. i just f***ed it up.
next time, i think i’ll clear off the desk first, and maybe have three or four less beers before i start.
i’ve got a replacement phone coming in the mail (or fed-ex or something). i’ll try it again when it gets here, if they send me the same phone.
Thanks, ShawnWiosna. Your guide also helped
