[Q] Cloning: How to? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Here's my dilema... My phone (Showcase) is having issues with the new CM7 and I wanted to see if it was possible to simply get a friend's un-rooted phone and do a direct clone of their Showcase to mine so that I have a working phone again. I'm getting super frustrated.
What would be awesome is a .tar for an ACS Showcase, but we Alaskan's are few and to find ones that mess with their phones is more difficult. So my hope is to just find someone's working phone and use theirs as a template to fix mine.

[Q] Android OS for HTC Tilt2

I have a unlocked HTC Tilt 2 and I was wondering if I can put the Android OS on it? How can I do that? Also, is there a way to use it with a Boost Sim card?
Currently it has Windows 6.5, but I'd rather have Android...I got it on the AT&T website, but have recently unlocked it...if I can't get it to work with a Boost Sim, what is the best service to use? I know I'm asking a LOT of questions in this thread...but I'd like to be able to use this phone...can anyone help me out? I would GREATLY appreciate it!

2.2.1 Not Today.

Mods Please move if in wrong section.
With that out of the way before I get flamed I just wanted to answer a couple questions that a few have had regarding when we can see 2.2.1 on the Vibrant.
Heathen was kind enough to port 2.2.1 for us back in December but unfortunately some files are missing (most likely having to do with T-Mobile network.) We ran into a problem with getting a soft semi-boot when the signal level reached -80 dBm. That left us with a phone that worked flawless if we didn't need to go outside. Several of us have been searching for the last month or so trying to find the problem to no avail. Tonight I tried something else. I successfully ported a different 2.2.1 rom to my phone and again it is flawless, but again that is if I don't want to leave my house. Same semi-soft-boot at -80 dBm.
Now if anyone wants to jump in and give some insight as to which files need to be changed or added please do. Rest assured though several people are still trying to bring 2.2.1 to you as well as 2.3. When a stable version of either is ready we will gladly post it.

Someone is working on it, search for the thread in the dev section.
No its nowhere near working, its not even booting at the moment.
And it probs wont be usable for a very long time.

[Q] S2 rom Dev Quetions

i have one or two questions about custom roms and kernels, i was planning on making my own untill i found out how useful some of the app on the Stock S2 can be.
First of all i was wonder is there is a way to get polaris office on a custom rom, like does come in the rom its self or is it part of the kernel. Cause i do like that program very useful.
Second i am wondering about wifi-sharing the thing eats up battery fast, problem is i aint using my phone as a mobile hotspot and it just randomly starts up, so if i were to make a new rom would i be able to get rid of wifi sharing completely,
All other are welcome to ask any other question like these regarding the S2.
Polaris office is a part of the ROM not the Kernel. its a
APP!
wifi-sharing can be turned OFF!
All others are welcome to do this is in the Q&A section.

[Q] Need help returning AT&T Captivate to 2.3.3 stock!!

Hey all. Have an AT&T Captivate that came with Gingerbread 2.3.3 on it.
After someone 'rooted' it it now has what I am finding out is the I9000 ROM. (if I am not mistaken, that's for UK phones?? I am in the US.)
I have no Android marked, my 'Home button' does not work, and I can receive text messages, but not send them. (I can send text with a side-app)
At this point, I just want my old stock and locked AT&T phone back.
(How does that song go? ... 'You don't know what you got till it's gone'. LOL)
Can anyone help?
thanks

That should be what you're looking for.
Within the captivate forum there are threads that'll help you flash to lots of different roms. Nothing's wrong with i9000. They just need to be reoriented.
Good luck!
