Mod, move to general please
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
i messed with odin for like 3 hours and it didnt do me any good so i ran a program to unroot my device and i restored the factory data and that didnt help me a bit i guess i'm just going to root it again is there any way possible that i could just reinstall the market.apk file? i downloaded one but it wont let me install it on my phone something about it my phone not being allowed to do it or are there any captivate roms that are available i dont even care if they give me all the bloatware back or is the i9000 rom usable on the captivate?

Did you use the Odin one-click download to re-install the Original OS? There is no file to load - just one big 300MB Odin file.
If you can't get this done, then I doubt you will be able to put the i9000 firmware on - it requires you to use Odin and is more complicated.

How did you try to install the market.apk? Am guessing it would have to be sideloaded as I doubt it's a standard market app, and of course AT&T cripples the ability to load non-market apps natively.

yes i used the one click downloader and i follow all the directions it has on the thread but when i go through the process my phone doesnt show up and i've tried it may different ways and when it does show up nothing has worked it always goes to file analysis then after a few seconds it says fail
could you possibly tell me or show me a walk through of how you use it because i may be doing something wrong that the odin thread isn't telling me
plus do you use the .exe .rar or .zip? not that i think it would matter

i found a market.apk file searching online and put it on my sd card and tried to run it from there because thats what i used to do with my pure and .cab files so i figured i would give it a shot on the captivate
so i recently used superoneclick to root my phone. The program said my phone is rooted yet when my kernels etc are the same as stock. I have superuser on my phone but how do i change the kernels etc so that i can use non market apps like wireless tether?
Kernels can be changed with new ROMS. Rooting means you get superuser permission on the terminals so things can be changed.
i dont understand what you asking about non market apps? But you can use apps that required root.
Hope i helped.

thanks, sorry let me clarify.
I downloaded wireless tether and titanium backup to remove sprint ID. The issue is when i try to run either, they dont work. Wireless says the kernel is the issue. What else should I do to be able to use these apps?

Try barnacle(it's in the market) for wifi tether and you need to download and install busybox in order to use titanium backup, and be careful what you remove because you could brick your phone...

Thank you for the barnacle thing, i havn't removed anything im having issues using anything that requires root access, just unrooted my phone.
Can anyone give me a step by step to rooting it? I simply want to remove sprint ID and have my phone run faster. Cant think of any apps i would really need.
Download z4root here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=446145&d=1290341328 transfer it to your sdcard and use a file manager to open it(if you don't have one download astro) install and run it, choose permanent root, and let it do it's thing...
did that, still isnt working, thank you though.
it appears anytime i try to run an app it says something along the lines of not having root access, even though it is rooted
Weird. Hmmmm. I meant i dont know much about your phone. I know that when my root got effed, i just did a factory reset and re-rooted and it worked.
Sorry couldnt help
have you tried this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shkOp2Q2AM4 ?

going to try this now, just didnt want to since it seems a bit more complicated and im really weak when it comes to linux
You could try installing Rom Manager from the market. If it works you will be able to flash a custom recovery, backup your device and flash a custom ROM.
Give it a go and let us know if it works.
cool so i followed the video, then it wasnt rooted, so i used z4root apparently it took two things to fully root my phone. Not sure why, some sort of sprint failsafe?
Although i forgot to set a backup to sprint features, so im a bit screwed down the road.
You prolly can find a sprint ROM somewhere. Or you could do a factory reset, not sure of that will bring back the sprint apps. Dont they have the sprint apps on the Android market?

That would be my video. AND no, you are NOT rooted if you flashed that tar. All that tar does, is make your phone STOCK with custom recovery, to ensure a nice clean platform to work with. You would hold down volume down, voice button, and power. let go when you see samsung, and then apply an update.zip for the kernel. i do have a video on how to root the Android 2.2.2 and it's a proper root video. Sorry for the confusion.
hi
I downloaded a software update accidently on my rooted 8013 now it keeps reminding me about installing the update
how to remove the notification forever I can remove it by pressing the home button but as soon as I Connectto a Wifi it reminds me again.
To don't want an update if it will remove the root until Jellybean is out (is there a leakedJellybean for 8013UEALGB?)
I rooted using the1st Method in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831152
and by mistake I installed the update (same as the one I am getting now ) and it ruined every thin took ME SOM time to fiX it and now I have 2 binary counts for some reason, I think this happened after I Flashed a kernal its not that important but how do I remove the binary count and is there a
Stock UEALGB Firmware? I searched around I couldn't find

You have the same chance of bricking your device by using ODIN to flash your tab...

Yes i know that....but its about the level of importance the only thing i want so badly is to remove the software update notification
Where is the update downloaded before installing??
why didn't anyone answer his question? i want to remove firmware update from my tablet, 400mb is a lot of dats to loose iIm glad It was not More!
dont worry triangleway works like charm, other way is root it manually search for it delete and disable automatic updates in settings

I don't know Where to search for It (a filename would be great) also how do you disable the update notfication so it dosn't download the update again? what is the process called in the app task manager so i can disable, i wish there was a option so that you are never notfied again.
also there is no option to disable auto updates in settings (on ics anyway)
Hi,
my device status is modified, but ive used the traingle application to make the binary count like stock, but you cannot remove the battery on a tablet which is what ive seen people say to do...so what do I do to fix this?

Did you remove root by deleting superuser?

I genuinely don't understand what that means...
Triangle-away only resets the flash counter on our device... It will still say modified as samsung get the tabs to do a scan of the root directory to see if it can find any "abnormal" binaries meaning the tab is rooted... It will show "Custom" in the about settings everytime... The ONLY way, so far, is to reset flash counter, remove Super User access and essentially go back to stock...
It's Samsung's little way of finding out if you have flashed a custom rom/recovery using ODIN as triangle-away cheats their system...
You will need to reset EVERYTHING back to stock if you have a valid warranty claim....

sooo please tell me what going on right now, what is the state of your device, you are able to get into recovery correct? its not the stock recovery which is recovery 3e. it turns on but allot of the apps are not working. so since the signature verification failed, you are going to go to (this is assuming you have CWM NOT STOCK RECOVERY) install zip from sdcard then toggle signature verification, and try to reflash the rom you wanted and since the google play store isent working on your device you need to flash the gapps. it needs to be the version of android the rom you want to flash. (gingerbread roms dont need it but ICS and JB need it) just google gapps and look for the android version of what the rom is.

That's the second time you've insinuated I didn't read the thread. I can read perfectly well, thank you. At one point he let on he didn't know which recovery he had installed and then he let on he may have CMW. Unless you have something to actually contribute to this thread or a valid question, I'd appreciate it if we just don't communicate with each other. It's a waste of space, which drives up server costs and i don't much like you.
