Why can't I download any roms to my phone
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
You might want to be a bit more clear...that is really ambiguous
I think his problem is that he can't download anything to his phone from the forums. Unsupported content
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Yeah, you're being quite a bit unclear.
A few questions:
-Are you rooted?
-Do you have bootstrap recovery?
-What version of android are you running? (2.2, 2.3.3, 2.3.4?)
If you can answer these things, then we can help you. If not, we can still help you find out.

Go to Android market and get app "download all files"
U don't need to open.it or anything for it to work. Just go to the download link and press.it.
its magic. Now all of a sudden u will be able to download whatever your heart desires
Wow you guys are really nice LOL. Was expecting flames

Hahaha just don't forget that thanks button lol j/k
Its not like u started a thread in development section asking "how come my battery is jumping when I reboot on 2.3.4?" LOL
I am loving the feeling in this forum lately(for the most part)
It seems everyone is becoming a bit more relaxed and ready to help b4 jumping on someone.
Did u have success? Which solution did u use?
I always tell people to use the "download all files" app from market cuz its simplest to use. Just download and that's it .. u don't even have to open the app. It works like a plug-in / add-on type of app. Very easy and lightweight to have running.
Oops sorry lol...by ur response I assumed u were the OP....lol...duuurrrppp!
LOL it wasn't me who started the thread.

Hahaha....yeah I just noticed that lol
The secret to not being attacked on forums: read before you post
Ash's right. As long as you don't make a thread on an already addressed problem in the wrong forum, you'll be good!
Glad to see the help! My buddy started the thread. Noob obviously. He is rooted...I did it for him. I have an Evo 3d not familiar with the x2. So thanks for not flaming him lol

I want to make my first ROM for s3 and thus I got dsixda kitchen.
I have windows 7 and ubuntu(kept for emergency) but i hate ubuntu and cant make rom on it, so installed cygwin.
It said tjat it needs some files from net bit when i click next the list of sources is empty, what to do now ?
Sent from my HTC Explorer A310e using xda premium
Does cygwin has a forum or mailing list?
The point is, it is hardly an android topic. Much less an S3 one.
Don't take the General forum that far.

Ah. The fine art of irony and the casual reader. I hope you threw a tantrum.
I bricked my note 2. I need a proper pit file and a properly signed kernel. . Does anyone have one? Can someone dd the BOOT partition for me?
The one in the development section is invalidly signed.
Someone get this man the files! I would but I have NO clue what he's talking about.

If you followed Adam working on the vz s3...he comes across abruptly. Its nothing personal, he just likes to get his point across. Let him do his thing. My guess is he won't get the boot loader unlocked, but he probably will find a way to get recovery.

Maybe it will help if I use smilies?. I get way too many pms . I read them all . I also read my recent threads :victory:. I also have things I'm doing in real life :highfive:. it is redundant, time consuming, and not worthwhile to send a pm and a response when you don't know what you are talking about :silly: . I generally hate my PM box . its filled with people asking questions that a search would take care of. So let me break this down a bit so you see what I see:cyclops: . I have a thread I'm monitoring and subscribed to, it sends me emails and I read the thread, I also get a PM, which sends me an email... I read there same post 4 times within 2 minutes and it was a question to which the answer is "no" :silly:.
I had hoped my previous response would be sufficient to convey that and let the quad message poster know that he does not need to spam to get my attention
The only thing we are now missing is a SBOOT.bin file. Once we have this file, I have a hardware hack and Ralekdev has a software hack. I've established a permanent external UART for testing compatibility of SBOOT signatures, but so far every one which I've found has been incompatible.
I'm working on this device and bricking it continuously. I've already had to have a thread shutdown in Development for improper firmware. I need a 100% restore solution. I'm working on it. I need SBOOT.
I'm also working on hardware hacks. https://plus.google.com/u/0/104711040110222472212/posts/TWps7wWvAAu I located UART on the live stream yesterday, and I've created a version of Heimdall for the GNote2.
So yeah, I'm a bit abrupt. Don't take offense. Just know that I'm working on this and being an asshole on the internet is real easy when working quickly.

This morning while I was simply just surfing YouTube I got a prompt asking me to start downloading a firmware update. I accepted and let it download but have no idea what it is. It's a 228 mb file. When it finished downloading nothing happened. Went to the AT&T Software Update menu and it says "Continue Update" but when I hit it nothing happens. Anyone have a clue? Could it be the 1.29 update?

I figured out how to push this update download from AT&T and then manually force the phone to update. It's basically just tricking the phone. I would write a detailed guide on this but I don't have the time because I have work and bills to pay. Donations would help though

This guy is about to get my second ever ignore on XDA.
Likely all he did was Force Stop/Clear Data on the Google Services Framework and push check for update a couple of times or some other equally easy/well known method of force checking an update.
Or (most likely) he's a pathetic piece of crap that's begging for money on xda for something he's made up.

Well you guys have echoed the sentiments pretty well here.
OP, we don't hold information ransom for monetary remuneration. We do this because we love development and helping others.
Normally I would say something humorous and sarcastic and close with a zing, but today I am going to kindly ask that you re-read the rules and realize that this is a live and close community, and as you can see from the replies here the community does not take kindly to efforts to extort money for information, files, beta access, or anything like that.
We are here for further mobile development and maybe have a bit of fun while doing it
Thanks for understanding.

The reason I told you to look it up is not because I don't want to help you, it is because it is extremely easy to find and by you not even looking it shows you're lazy.
You have to get used to the forums and finding **** yourself, that is why those of use who help the noobs out try to get them to find things for themselves. It instills confidence and gives them an idea of how the forums are laid out. You refusing to look it up after being told to shows you're lazy and want everything handed to you.

I know this wasn't directed at me and you're right it was easy to find maybe he's just never used XDA before? I've been rooting phones for years and understand this but I was a bit overwhelmed my first few weeks, me lurk you long time!!!
Anyway, to the OP:
I think I figured it out. Just to say I tried it I clicked the MTP box on my phone(Under USB Options when you plug it in) and then ran casual. Maybe I should ask Adam to put "DO IT IN MTP MODE" lol
It worked since I'm look at TWRP and about to get flashing, the wife and I need some ROMs! :good:

Seriously? I told him exactly where it was. If he can't find it then maybe he shouldn't be doing such complicated things.
I busted my ass reading everything I could before I unlocked my S3 and before I flashed any Roms just to make sure I didn't **** anything up even though that wasn't my first rodeo with flashing and unlocking. If I had questions I asked them but if I was told to look something up I damned well did it. If he absolutely couldnt find it because it was some obscure post that would be one thing, that however is not the case. I did all that research again when I unlocked my Note 2. He obviously knew to post in Q&A instead of General or one of the Dev sections, that says he had some knowledge of the forums layout and where to post what.
Him not looking it up was pure laziness, if he cannot find such a simple thread then he doesn't need to be unlocking and flashing ROMs.
