Default Help in here...

I am trying to perform the overclocking kernel mod to my phone.. have downloaded the zip file.. but my pc wont recongize my phone?

It does when I hook up with Kies, though..

When I plug my phone to the pc via usb.. nothing comes up.. Im trying to copy to files to my sd card...

Im I missing something, here?

Have u installed the samsung driver? And when u plug in the usb an icon should apear asking you if you want to connect uab storage is that what u get? I actually just use dolphin browser and download roms and kernels with my phone so i dont have to move them from my pc to my phone

---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 PM ----------

Also have u tried all of your usb ports? If none of them work have u tried a different usb cable? If that did not work id suggest delete your samsung usb driver reboot your pc reinstall reboot again then try

And i just flashed the overclock kernel earlier i got a quadrant score of over 4200 at 1.8ghz but my phone heated up really quickly and got very hot so i flashed the stock kernel back so be careful and if i go above 1.83ghz it shuts off my phone. Yours may handle it but dont be suprised if you have the same reasults





donations are never required. how ever I got laid off. and my car blew the engine. so anyone who does donate. I just want to say it is very much appreciated

Hi.. when i plug it in it does say usb connected, but when I scroll down and hit "connect" and nothing happens..
I was thinking of only overclocking to around 1.78 or so.. I have installed the usb drivers from Samsung...
I will try some other things you mentioned..
Thank you for the heads up..
Is the Dolphin Browser easier to use? ... If so.. Im all for that!

In my oppinion yes. Its very easy. Its free on the market i use it for all my web browsing works like a pc web browser. Im on here on my phone now. I download all my files with the phone so i dont have to transfer between my pc and phone. If u download dolphin get on xda u can just download the overclock kernel right to it. In dolphin if u push menu dolphin settings data storage settings u can choose anywhere u want dolphin too save your files.

Well heck.... Dolphine browser is awesome, but it won't let me change the file name to /sdcard/external_sd? I'm a Powerlifter.. I have squatted 900lbs but this is killing me!..lol..

Okay.. changed the name.. went into recovery and found " install zip for sd card"

got that,.. now that next screen did not have.. "install zip from internal sd card" anywhere on the list?...

I don't think it downloaded...lol

I downloaded it many times.. changed the name of the file on Dolphin.. go into reboot and i navigate to install zip from sdcard" then go down to zip from internal sdcard and it has everything but that file in the list...

Does it automatically send it to the sdcard from once I download from Dolphin, or do I have to do it myself? ( manual)??

Yeah like i said if u open dolphin browser and click menu then more then settings and click download directory and change it too what i said it makes that the location it downloads all your fikes too. Andbit stays that way
.. if i was you id download astro file manager from the market its free open it and look around for the file when u see it click on it itll tell you the location it was saved too. Then just click on it and click copy and you can move the file by pasting it where ever you want. Im really not sure why ur not finding it. But if you have yahoo messenger i can get on there and talk u throught it easier if u need it.
