i was running 2.2 then used the kies to get 2.3.5 and all my programs were still on my phone but i lost root.

just because something is illegal doesnt mean it is illegal to discuss it. it is called freedom of speech. this guy stated he wish he knew how to clone a phone. if you preface your response with the fact the information is not intended for illegal use, you are not aiding anyone. he is...

ever notice how people like to ask " did you search before posting this thread?" seems to me that is just as much waste as posting in the wrong place or posting before searching. everyone wants an organized xda site but what is the deal with these guys who have ten million posts and half are...

"epic manly nod of approval..." - that was a cool line.

Paypal said they lock my account because im in china. I had already called them last month and told them i would i be in china and they said no problem. At least i got it working again. they have locked my account 30% of the time i have tried to use paypal.

last month some xda members helped me unlock my captivate so i donated to the developers (helroz and clshortfuse) and people who answered questions for me (mainly trusselo). paypal locked my account twice. yesterday i was enjoying my unlocked phone here in china so i remembered how much those...

i am in china and i use www.137vpn.com it used to be called greenvpn but they changed the name since china government shuts them down frequently. this vpn will update your sign in automatically when they change addresses. it is free for three months then you have to pay a small price. it has...

i wasnt too upset. i was just frustrated because i NEVER seem to post or start a thread in the correct place. thanks for making me feel better about it, djbacon06. and sorry if i sounded like an arse, davidrules778.

this wasnt to meant to be a rant thread. i was just talking about a single subject, when you meet a girls family and she has hot relatives. that is specifically why i wrote it. i didnt know it would turn into a rant thread. read my sig, it alludes to the fact that i am a noob. read my posts. i...

and that WAS your tenth! lol you should thank me for the chance. jk. no do it. jk.

that is an awesome post. bravo

dont you hate it when you go to meet your girl's family or go to a wedding of one of her family members only to find out that her cousins and sisters are so hot and you have to pretend not to stare?

thanks, bryman27. and thanks for the link. i am not good at searching for the right place to post. i did try. just not good at it. thanks again. sorry to anyone who wasted time reading any of this thread because i posted it in the wrong place. sincerely, i am sorry.

google "superoneclick CLShortFuse" then google "Galaxy_S_Unlock helroz" both results will lead you to the xda page which will lead you to the places to download the apk files. i had this problem in china with no market access and it worked for me. note: you will have to find a wifi connection...

Im in china and I can connect to my modem/router but i cannot connect to the internet via stock browser or opera mini on my captivate. my american made gateway NV53 running windows 7 acts the same way. why? specs on my modem/router : ZTE ZXV10 H608B WPA-PSK (password 5acjkfn5 entered and...

1.root using superoneclick- make sure you download the one with the tool package included. you can do it on your pc if you have no market access. clshortfuse thanks. 2.unlock with helroz's program- you can get that without market access. thanks helroz Note: you will need busy box and a wifi...

Got a note from TRusselo and he told me this list was for several different samsung phones and the list was old. He said the best list for captivate codes are in the app sgs tool. it was excellent info. thanks tru.

thanks a lot. really helpful info. thanks to all who took time to reply to this post from a total noob. hey wait, this is post thirty for me. does that mean i am a noob version 1.1 now?

i found a way to access android market in english even though its a chinese site: https://market.android.com/?hl=en i am wondering if i make an account, will google recognize my phone imei and prohibit me from having a usa and chinese android market account. my chinese account would have a...

she is on china mobile.

i used BWolf56's advice and superoneclick (by CLShortFuse) rooted my captivate but didnt unlock it because i had already updated from eclair to froyo. I tried to hex edit using NovaChief's instructions on the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047770&page=4 -(thread Posted...

i am a noob so i know why (at least in my case) 1. should have read TRusselo's new user guide on first visit to xda 2. sometimes i search and do not find then a member shows me a thread i didnt know about thus confirming my inability to search successfully 3. some people post things in the wrong...

cheech and chong's "up in smoke" and "nice dreams"

man, i read this today. sorry this world has lost such a good entertainer. R.I.P. macho man. think about you everytime i snap into a slim jim.

hi to all xda members! 问候所有XDA成员!

i would download that is there is a site with an apk but since i have no market access i can only get apps by apk download. if you know where to get that i would surely donate to the developer.

i cant access the market. im in china using my fiance's sim chip. when the chip is in her crackberry it runs internet but in my captivate it says unable to open page. however, when i go to a hotel lobby i can run wifi and my browser (cant run wifi on my home router because as TRusello explained...

thanks supaphreek and TRusselo. im running froyo and i guess its time to update to gingerbread to get those languages. does kies provide it (GB) now? i have to unrooted to run kies mini, right? anything else i have to do before running kies mini? i want FF3.0 also so i guess this is the week i...

i share my captivate with my chinese fiance and would like to know how to keep the phone english but have the ability to text in chinese for her. is this possible? i did search the forums but they seem to have chinese and want english. i only want to text in chinese? how can i do this?

i think this is an old list and maybe that is why only some work on my samsung. maybe a senior member will read this thread and tell us what the deal is with this list. clarification: i understand how to use these codes and what they do. i just dont know if they are model specific or if they...

i found these codes on the net and thought they were for my captivate. some work and some do not (on my captivate.) what kind of list is this? ALL SAMSUNG UNLOCK CODE.... --------------------------- *2767*688# = Unlocking Code *#8999*8378# = All in one Code *#4777*8665# = GPSR Tool...

so true. i should have known better about salesmen in general. however, i didnt think at&t would leave me hanging to such a degree. they could have given me the code but that would make a customer happy and that is not their policy (happy customers.) thank goodness for xda members and their...

im on a samsung with AT&T and i wouldnt trust anything they promise. the only thing you can trust is xda and the awesome members who will help you.

i have no market access (in china) but i would like the xda premium app. any place to download the apk and donate without market access? i will donate double.

well i did get the phone unlocked and it was good i had to learn to do things myself. i am glad i dont have an iphone and glad that there isnt a program to do everything because it gives us the chance to choose what we want and to learn what we need. this site is great for learning that. thanks...

I DID IT! i unlocked my phone in china with no market access. i popped my chinese sim in and my phone works! i knew nothing about phones and computers but i did it with help from the following: TRusselo CLShortFuse (superoneclick) helroz (sim unlock without code) NovaChief studacris BWolf56...

thanks tru Donation Confirmation number: 12P80924W4008883J.

thanks for the information to all. i will start studying

idea: the xda people should make a program that computer morons, like myself, can download and plug our phones in and it just takes over and deletes bloatware then unlocks our phones and puts cool stuff on our phones. i got shafted by a mobile carrier salesman who told me they would unlock my...

point me to the root explorer. i cant access market though. just got my paypal to work here in china. i donated to clshortfuse for the superoneclick and would like to buy that root explorer if i can using paypal. how much is it? where should i get it from. also, what is the acceptable donation...

i have a degree in chemistry and worked for an engineering company inspecting buildings so i think i could probably learn how to do this stuff (maybe). could someone make a list of what i need to study to be able to do it all. i already rooted, shell rooted, allowed non market apps, and hex...

thanks for trying to help me. i think i am in way over my head. a week ago i didnt even know what root was. i dont understand all this code is or how it works. i was just winging it. i got a free hex editor and the superoneclick and the drivers and sgs unlocker but i dont really know much about...

i used a hex editor and changed the 01 to 00 on line 181468 after backing up the file. i cannot find the nv_data.bin.md5 file because i do not have access to the market to get root explorer. any way to delete it without root explorer?

i guess i cant edit the title. i meant to write 'but" not "by"

i used superoneclick with drivers to root my at&t captivate in debugging mode but the unlock button didnt work- failed. i bought the phone in usa and upgraded with kies to froyo and i am using windows 7. i used the galaxy unlocker but it gave me a six digit mcc/mnc code (00101) i am in china now...
