samsung vibrant

Hey guys, I already read a couple of forum network SIM unlock PIN posts. Like: http://androidforums.com/hero-all-things-root/119257-huge-problem-sim-network-unlock-pin.html So, apparently one remedy to the problem is to flash older radios to get it to work. I was wondering which ones to...

How do I know if I have a custom kernel? When I go to settings>about phone, it says 2.6.32.9 kernel When I go into recovery, it says Voodoo Lagfix recovery How do I know which kernel I have?

This is the entire story. My phone used to run with Cyanogenmod 7, but I wasn't able to use One Click Lag Fix app for some reason. So I though I would downgrade my phone to Froyo, and installed the OCLF package. The problem is that I installed Froyo firmware for GT-I9000 model rather than the...

Sorry it's long. I have a T-mobile samsung vibrant (rooted, eclair). I bought a Sony Xplod bluetooth CD deck and connected the phone via bluetooth. It worked fine for a short while. However, when I'm connected and I receive an incoming call, I answer the call, but the CD deck keeps ringing as...

I'm going crazy with this today... Trying to root my Vibrant and am being stopped because of an error with the adb interface. No matter what I do, I get an error box from the Found New Hardware Wizard that says: Cannot Install This Hardware There was a problem installing this hardware...

I need to do a factory reset on my phone because it's having some major problems. How exactly do I go about backing up all of my data? (pics, apps, music, text, video, contacts) I can't use Kies because, thanks Samsung, it doesn't support Vibrant. I can't afford to purchase any apps to do this...

Is there a guide for the performance setting tweaks to save battery?

My stock non-rooted Vibrant was getting slow and buggy, so I recently performed a factory reset. It worked wonders. The phone is like new again, but I just noticed that when I'm connected to WiFi, it is not initiating WiFi calling. I need WiFi calling because the T-Mo signal is so bad in my...

I'm using cyanogen 7 and after I rooted it, I never restarted my phone. My battery died and now when I try to turn on my phone, the cyanogen 7 mod startup keeps looping over and over. Do i need to go into clockwork mode and re-run cyanogen file everytime I reboot? also my battery died cause of...

I'm using cyanogen7 mod on my vibrant, and when I wake up, I see a bunch of apps opened up randomly and there is no individual app setting to not have them open auto. For example, amazon app store, espn scorecenter, weather channel. Is there a way to stop these from automatically pop up until I...

I cannot connect to my college's secure network. After I enter the credentials it just keeps switching to connecting, disconnecting, connecting, disconnecting........It connects fine to my school's unsecured wifi and my home network. Does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening...

I've had the phone since July 2010 and recently it has started to lag out like crazy. I find myself taking the battery out and restarting due to frustration. Every time I use System Panel (Pro) it just kills all the apps and starts to go into super lag mode. Same with all the other task killers...

I was at my aunt's place yesterday and she has a Vibrant. I checked her settings and it says 2.1 Update 1. And I was like "wha?" so I ran the "check for updates" thing and it said there were no updates. She has a really big problem with missing texts. Sometimes they'll all queue up and she will...

model sgh-t959 firmware 2.2 kernel 2.6.32.9 build froyo Okay I've tried 3 methods to root my vibrant. I've used it for about a year so I'm not sure if that might have something to do with these methods not working. First I tried to use superoneclick. It finally worked after I kept getting...

I decided to update my Samsung Vibrant through Kies mini today. It made me wait until my battery was mostly charged, then it started. I excitedly watched it download the update and then the phone rebooted. It showed an android working in a yellow triangle and the words Downloading... Do not turn...

Hello all... I'm having a horrible time trying to get a new custom ROM on my Vibrant. It has 2.1 on it, so Rom Manager won't install. Every single tutorial out there tells me to use Rom Manager to flash a ROM. Is there a way around this? I can't be the only one to have run into this...

Used Root Explorer to add my .ogg and .mp3 fiels to system/media/audio/ringtones. When I go to set my ringtone, the ringtones I put in are not listed.

Hello, i'm having a problem with my Vibrant, ever since i rooted the phone, whenever i turn WIFI on, after a few seconds the screen goes black, and the phone restarts. Then it stays on a couple of seconds and restarts again until i turn WIFI off. I don't know if it got anythink to do with...

Phone: Samsung Galaxy T-Mobile T959 on Wind Mobile. Lately the screen display flips upside down a lot. Sometime, the display is greenish or very faint. The top part of the screen is slightly popped out from the bezel. Putting pressure on the glass makes it a lot worse (it used to fix it)...

I had an ongoing text message thread with person X. Then one day I went to send a message from it and the thread had a new person name above, Y. But when looking at the messages within the thread they were all prefaced by X's name, but the messages were connected to Ys number. I tried...

So... I decided to give CyanogenMod one more try on my Vibrant. So ODIN back to factory setup, root, then flash CyanogenMod 7.x. Now I have no GPS and battery life is down the tubes. The 23 pages of instructions to fix the GPS take more turns than Formula 1. I'm still not sure about the battery...

Hi all, I've been restoring my phone after a disaster with ROM flashing. After doing the T-Mobile KB5 2.2 update from the factory reset I'm not able to root again. Something about a signature error. Please don't tell me to flash some other ROM - I only need to root so I can use Titanium...

Hello guys, Recently my phone started acting weird after I used the phone's feature to "factory data reset" under Privacy (Note: I have stock software). After about 5 minutes or so, my WiFi automatically shuts off and I have to reactivate it on and off in order to get it functional again. My...
