While trying to use superoneclick, I ran into a snag, and My atrix wouldn't properly root. I was able to SBF back to 1.5.2. I haven't rooted it since. Nowany time I connect it to the lapdock, it says "connected to hdmi cable" and brings up an option to either run the "entertainment center" or "do nothing" Webtop does not come up at all! any answers/solutions as to why would be a great help!!
EDIT: Lapdock is working, I upgraded to 1.8. thanks anyways!
Ok, so I have read and searched and even though I found a fix previously I cant seem to find it again. I tried uninstalling the drivers adn re-installing them. I hopped on one foot and rubbed my tummy, I tried all 4 USB ports on my pc, I flashed a different Kernel and ROM, I even ran a freagin anti-virus scan for some reason...... Any other ideas? Oh yeah, I am on the GB bootloader and am trying to go back to froyo because my Vibrant continues to wiggout on the 2.3.4 roms.... Any suggestions will be sincerely appreciated.
WOW!!!! I freaking used my spouses macro cable for her MyTouch4G and it recognized and installed the freagin drivers instantly it seemed!!! LOL i feel like a rock in an empty pond...
GB bootloaders are backward compatible with froyo and eclair so they wouldnt be any need to change them back just because of going back to a 2.2 rom
unless theres another reason for changing them back
I have bought an MHL adapter, and also a HDMI to HDMI cable.
1) apparently it did not work and my screen on the phone turned green and I had to reboot my phone. Since then, my phone then going into screen off, may observe some grain lines just before the lights on the screen turns off.
2) i had problem with my WIFI tethering.. it just prompts me error, and even with reboots, I can't seem to provide WIFI hotspot. I tried looking for threads but to no avail, hoping for some experts to enlighten me on this two issues.
Thanks in advance..
It may help to mention what rom / kernal combination you have.
Sent from my GT-I9100
May also help to mention;
1. is the MHL adapter you're attempting to use an OEM Samsung MHL adapter, or some knock-off?
2. When attempting to use the MHL adapter, are you plugging in power to the adapter? And if so, are you using the original AC adapter that came with your phone? If not, you should try that.
3. "problem with wi-fi tethering" and "it just prompts me error" doesn't begin to describe your problem.
You need to provide much more detail if you expect anyone to be able to help you.

It only prompted me with the ONLY word error after I mark on hotspot tethering. How do I provide more information for that when the phone error doesn't give me more information?
yes, like you said, it's OEM Samsung MHL adapter with Original AC adapter and everything original..
The only thing that's not original is my ROM & kernel.
I'm on Ultratoxic Rom v8.0.2 with Siyahkernel 2.6.9. still the same fault with Siyahkernel 2.6.11.

I have Siyah kernel 2.6.4 on stock XXKI3 (I know - I'm behind the times), and MHL works fine with Wi-Fi for me.
Sorry, I don't know anything about the Ultratoxic ROM. Looks like it's Samsung based (XWKK5) when I look at the thread I find when I search for it. Have you checked with any other users of this ROM?

The only thing I can suggest is to make a Nandroid backup of your current ROM, flash to a stock ROM, and see if it works with that. If it does, then something you have installed (maybe the ROM, but maybe some other app) is causing the behavior.
ok let me start with the problem, I have a galaxy s2 and when I plug in the usb to the phone and the pc I get nothing but a charging sound. I don,t get the little pop up in the top bar that says its connected to a usb,
now with that said I know to check the debugging the usb utilities and all those setting. I even did a factory reset to no avail. I have read many post that say update the pc drivers and even have done that. I have tried different wires that I know worked at one time and also different operating systems win7, ubuntu. I do have the phone rooted and at one time it did work. it worked best with ubuntu btw no drivers needed I don't know when it stopped working I don't use it much but one day I did go to use it and nothing.
Anyway if anyone has a suggestion out there I would be glad to hear it cuz I want to put linux on my phone with adb but cant till this issues is fix thats for you time

Hi
Just brought cable to connect my S2 to my monitor via HDMI.
Now it can display video however, I was hoping I could use my S2 as a portable computer i.e browser, email etc but none of this works?.
Is this no possible or simply due to the rom I'm using?.
Thanks
HDMI works properly only on stock firmware.
Stock, how come?.
EDIT:So I suppose I need to go back to stock OS then. Damn, I don't have a laptop and was hoping to use the S2 as my mini computer.
Does anyone know where I can get a stock OS without all the bloatware or is that impossible, and is it a case of flashing it back to stock?
