[Touch HD General] 303_trancer:
Hi,

I'm new hereand this is my first post.

I bought me a HTC Touch HD and it had it's original ROM so I wanted to upgrade it. I read the TUT from this site but got an error message when I executed the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156Olinex.exe. Then I tried tu update the official Rom from the HTC site (1.56.404.1). This was OK. Then I tried again the Olinex and it seemed ok but it took just a few seconds to complete the update! I did it again and it was exactly the same: Updated within seconds. The only differece is when it boots, the D shows 1.56.00.00 ...

But after this action my laptop which I used to do all these, lost it's internet connection!!! I can receive mails but can't send them and can't connect to any website. I normally use a wifi connection and when I tried the LAN connection it is the same: No internet connection!?!

My modem is working because I can connect to the internet via wifi with my touch HD and my desktop.

I'm sure I didn't change any settings on my laptop. However I installed activesync and Windows Zune. But as soon as I saw that zune was downloading a bunch of **** I decided to uninstall this. The same thing I did with activesync4.5.

Then I started to search the internet but couldn't find anything like this. Then I started rereading all kind of manuals from this forum and then I realised I didn't install de .net software but in Softwar I can see there is .net framework3.5 SPI on my XP SP3 laptop. I'm not shure if that is what is wrong?

I also have to mention that I don't have the official CD's for the Touch HD. So I don't know if you need to install any usb drivers for the device in XP. I got sometimes error messages when connecting the HD with usb to the laptop like unknown usb device or this device can use a faster usb connection (something like that).

I'm so frustrated now! I'm afraid I have to reinstall XP because I can't find out why I lost my internet connection on my laptop?

Is there anybody out there? who can help me with this wierd problem?

Regards,

Carlo

Help me my wife lost all music and photos on sd card here's what happened:

Set folders on sd card as follows:

MUSIC

PICTURES

These folders have been setup since she had the phone her phone has never been rooted and she is running panda home as her default home launcher when she went to pull the drawer up her phone froze and reset itself after reset she no longer has picture or music folders on sd card are they hidden somewhere or is it to late?

Do flash drive and SSD file systems function like HDD file systems in that if you haven't overwritten the memory area... the files might still be there?!? I use GetDataBack for NTFS (or FAT) to help friends all the time to recover hard drive data that has "accidentally" been erased. It always manages to find something... unless it's a actual head crash, in which case they're usually screwed. (Or at least at the mercy of specialized firms that have clean rooms for dismantling and reassembly... to the tune of $400/hr. and up! And they never listen to me about the importance of data redundancy... <sigh>)
[Samsung Mesmerize] rickkyjjem:
K thanks for info but will this work even though files were saved to sd card?
[Samsung Mesmerize] add144:
Data can be recovered even after its been overwritten. There's varying beliefs on data sanitation, however most governmental and military branches around the world employ techniques with multiple overwrite passes. One pass isn't necessary enough.

I managed to root the thunderbolt! yay me, but i have noticed that i am unable to charge it after i turn it off, it will just boot right into recovery, anyone else having this issue? any tips
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddgarcia05:
Wow, did you search? It's been discussed.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattCropley:
yes but they only one i saw was when they powered it down, mine powers down fine, only when i connect to a charger, an the fix they had did not work.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
cause it isn't actually a fix, either unroot or live with clockwork recovery coming on when the phone is powered down.

for now anyway.

[EDIT] Running this with GingerBlur 4.5 - working great with NO issues..

Nice work man!! This looks great!!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] navalynt:
Thanks! I JUST finished updating the OP with install instructions and I also attached a RAR file with the dock/icons to use if you wanted to make LauncherPro look just like it does in the screenshots.

Also, while I like red and/or blue themes, my wife likes purple so I'll probably be working on a GrapeBlur theme next.

If anyone tries pushing these files to a release other than 4.1.57 (such as Adeo or Gingerblur based on 4.1.52) I would be interested to know the results!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Reventrant:
Looks great sir, thanks for the work.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Izmartell:
Looks great man, thanks for putting this together. One question though, is it posible to make a blue theme as I love blue!
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] shady_lanem:
Thanks for great work! One question though, any errors during the deodexing process?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] navalynt:
I had one error, I think it was on PhotoEditor.apk and PhotoEditor.odex. I've seen or used a built-in photo editor so I just removed those then restarted the deodex process for apps and it completed successfully.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] shady_lanem:
just tried deodexing and yes, getting the same errors from the two apks as well. Ok thanks for the heads up will try again :)
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] shady_lanem:
Successfully applied the theme! :D

Found 1 bug. The clock in notification bar is black in mine instead of white. Any idea why?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] txtsd:
This might be a nobrainer but, if I change the icon files inside the apk and then push it to my phone will it still work? In this way will I be able to make my own 4.1.57 themes?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] anirudh15891:
hey.. i am sorry to ask this how am i suppose to install the grapeblur and the launcherpro.. i have no idea .. i am soo sorry to ask such a dum question.. but this is my first time with an android
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] blaque72:
okay I may be kinda slow how do I make use of the launcherpro files?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] anirudh15891:
hey how would you install cherryblur in the first place.. i have my phone deodexed and all but having trouble knowing how to install cherryblur...
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] DKRussell:
Beautiful theme and I love battery icon... what clock app are you using?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] txtsd:
You added a few icons to the /drawable-hdpi directory. Do you actually use them via the xml files, or are they just remains of whatever framework-res.apk you used?
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Nottach:
yes

just get framework-res.apk, back it up, open it with winrar.

drag and drop the files, of the same name, that you would like to replace into the open winrar window. choose normal and 'add and replace', then close the window to save. replace the one in system/framework with your modified version.

Be sure to set the priviledges correctly after you copy into system/framework.

They should match the original, full read and user write.

Thats how I made this.

Edit: Every time I replace the framework-res.apk I lose my google, twitter, and facebook accounts. Anyone know why, all I'm doing is replacing images.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] txtsd:
oh nice!

Yea I did the same. Just used 7zip instead of crappy winrar. Didn't check for permissions though, I'll do that tomorrow.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] navalynt:
Correct, just remains. Possibly for future use as well :D

That is Beautiful Widgets in the Android Market. I forgot the name of the actual skin I'm using with it though, I'll reply to your PM later this morning.

The instructions are on the first page, but you need to be at least somewhat familiar with adb.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] navalynt:
When you long press on any of the icons in the dockbar of LauncherPro you should see an option to change the icon. You need to have the icons/dock I attached saved to your sdcard ahead of time so you can choose "custom" for the icon and select the graphic you want to use.

For the dock you go to Menu -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Dock Background

* Pretty sure that's correct, but my phone is in on the charger in my bedroom where my wife is sleeping so I don't want to accidentally wake her up.

Somehow my gorilla glass got a 1/2" scratch in the middle of the screen. Anyone know a way to buff it out?

You sound surprised that it got scratched?!

It's not scratch proof!

few things you can do: google : glass scratch repair

you find things like:

[Captivate General] VentureForth:
Thanks, smartaxes...

Gorilla glass is supposed to be scratch proof. So, I imagine it would take more than your standard glad repair kit.

Also, didn't think gorilla glass could be peeled off...

Anyone with useful info?
[Captivate General] amtrakcn:
Samsung put a film on top of Gorilla glass to prevent finger prints and improve touch comfortness.
[Captivate General] LNJ:
Resistant, not proof!

Big difference. It's just harder than regular cell phone glass and nothing extraordinary like sapphire crystal or anything.

Hello everyone:)

Iam a bit nooby in android yet, but i've successfully done rooting + S-OFF already, flashed latest CM by using ROM manager+CMR, got latest RADIO and now...iam a bit frustrating :D

Should i update my HBOOT, which is 0.76.2000 (PC1010000)?:confused:

And how can i make it???

Thanks in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibemad1:
There is absolutly no reason to update HBOOT. It won't give you any more features or better battery life. All it does is patch some exploits probably.

Sent from my G2 running Cyanogenmod 7.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
Ok, thank u =)

But what is a proper way to upgrade ONLY hboot?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhkr234:
That guy was actually quite incorrect in his statement. The hboot you mentioned is the engineering hboot, it has additional functionality over the ship hboot that your phone came with, in particular, it allows you to to use FASTBOOT.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
Ow, tnx.

So is it necessary to update or not?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raitchison:
Not strictly necessary (I do not have the ENG HBOOT) but many guides more or less assume that you have it.

I would expect that if you are just going to be flashing custom ROMs that you should not need it, but if you are getting into more advanced hacking it will probably be required.

I have not updated to the ENG HBOOT for two main reasons.

1. When the wiki says that installing it is "OPTIONAL AND UNNECESSARY" I take it at it's word.

2. If you make any mistakes at all in flashing your HBOOT you can brick your device fairly easily (I view it as a small but unnecessary risk)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
Thank u all guys)

The topic can be closed i think.

I screwed up, I tried to root my Hero without the skills!

After a couple of steps I can't retrace, my Hero rebooted and boot looped on the cyanogen boot screen.

These are the steps I've tried so far.

I can start up the phone to fastboot usb. (Hboot just lists a couple of HERODIAG files not found)

"fastboot devices" sees my phone, adb doesn't.

My driver said HTC BOOTLOADER, I changed it to MY HTC, so the drivers should be ok. HTC sync doenst find my phone

I downloaded RUU, but it cant finish the update, probably not the right RUU?

How do I find out the right RUU?

I have been checking out posts like crazy, trying every single thing out, most of my searches end up in this forum, so you guys are my final hope!

Help me xda-developers......your my final hope!

Hi

I am trying to get android-rsap.com to work

In their instruction they say to use clockworkmod recovery to patch some system files.

This does not seem to work as (guessing I don't have a recovery mode)

How can I patch system files on an SD android build ?

Thanks in advance

Paul.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ArnomaF:
Simply unpack the zip file. Copy all to your MicroSD. Under Android copy all from your MicroSD to your internal storage to the right folder.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pablo111:
Thanks ArnomaF

That worked cannot believe how silly I was for not realising this.

the only thing I had to do a little different was copy them with root privileges

I used terminal ans then su (super user) to root

just a note to anyone else applying this rsap patch manually

The original libhtc_ril.so needs to remain in the lib folder as libhtc_ril.orig

and the one provided by android-rsap.com needs copied in along side and named as libhtc_ril.so

commands

su

mv libhtc_ril.so libhtc_ril.orig

mv fileprovidedbywebsitesite.so libhtc_ril.so

I'm running DAS BAMF 1.2.1

For some reason, when adjusting the sound profile from the home screen with the volume rocker to vibrate, the phone doesn't vibrate to confirm you're setting it to that.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I could have swore it did this in stock.

Anyone else?

Sent from my ROOTED Thunderbolt.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TSerge:
Can't confirm that bug with Das Bamf, but yes, the stock OS and my debloat both will vibrate to confirm that you've reduced the ring volume down to the "vibrate" setting.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thrillhouse847:
Are you sure you're not setting it to silent which comes before vibrate? Only thing I could think of to suggest because mine still vibrates when I set it to vibrate from the home screen using the volume rocker and I'm using BAMF also.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
i am running das bamf and mine vibrates when you set it to silent to "confirm"

Well, my volume toggle is setup as vibrate-silent-(low-high). Like, the lowest setting.

Right...so somehow a really long time ago I managed to root my HTC Hero while adb did not even work properly (couldn't use most of the commands). Either way....I now have Froyo 2.2.1 special edition flashed with ADW launcher but I can't see the slide to unlock screen. The same happened with Froydvillain 1.7.2 with LauncherPro.

It doesn't matter what button I press to wake my phone up, it never shows the slide to unlock screen. I've searched through all the settings on both and haven't found anything. Maybe i'm missing something. maybe it just is an error. Please help me find a suitable solution :( How do I get my slide lock back?

PS: my biggest problem is not having slide/lockscreen music controls. I use bTunes to get around that (controls before pattern unlock shows) but it lags.

-edit-

I found a setting I overlooked but hats not completely what I wanted. Settings -> Location & Security -> Set up screen lock and disable it or set to none. Now I get an slide to unlock but fr security reasons (obviously) I want slide to unlock and then a pattern.

-edit2-

"slide to unlock lock screen with pattern" on Modaco forums (since i can't post urls)

slide + pin is a possible. still hoping someone finds slide + pattern

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IFLPI:
Hi,

I have updated kernel from 0.07 to 0.08 on CM RC1, and after that superuser app has FCs eg when a new app requires SU. Old apps have SU, because I rooted again after the update (in androidiani recovery, or z4root app - the same effect)

I tried to clear data of superuser app or cache, wipes in recovery (dalvik and cache) and this hadn`t helped. I think there are some old files which superuser refers to which must be deleted, but dont know where to find them etc.

could u help ??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] wisefreakz:
Droid or Milestone?

Please clarify at title if you want ppl to help.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IFLPI:
Milestone - updated first post, thanks for a hint. ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] wisefreakz:
OK... so now i assume you have AOR... from the AOR menu, find and apply root from there.

Should fix your problem.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IFLPI:
still, no result. I did it already as I mentioned it in the 1st post.

Any new app that requires SU; either FCs superuser or doesnt respond or has root access denied.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sdtaddey:
But... why did you root your device once again??

If i did not misunderstood, you said that... so i assume that you had 0.07 running perfectly with root and when you update it to 0.08 you rooted again?

That's unnecessary and causes ( as i heard) that superuser.apk behaves badly.

So if i were you... i would wipe dalvik...cache partition and factory reset and then apply once again the 0.08 update.zip

And... do not root it again!

Hope it helps. :)

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] wisefreakz:
Remove superuser app from your device then root from AOR
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IFLPI:
OK, finally I got it working.

nothing really helped, removing SU and rooting again, still SU forcecloses etc, wipes (cache, dalvik) the same.

There`s what I did, dont know whats the difference but still. I applied the kernel 0.08 once again (after I wiped cache and dalvik) rebooted > still problems.

Rebooted in the ARecovery, rooted, rebooted > SU forcecloses (only once), but from now on everything`s OK. I can add apps to the SU, root granted, everything is fine.

The difference was that in the first time I applied the kernel in the recovery and rooted at the same time without rebooting the system ...

Strange thing for me with this kernel update, I had the same story on Cronos (they say that u must root after kernel update, but they forgot to mention that system must be rebooted after update and before rooting.)

Thanks to all, maybe this thread will be useful to someone.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] IFLPI:
After the kernel update the root is gone (There is a superuser, but its not working, and root is not granted) u must root it again. But as I said, there must be a reboot between update and rooting.

edit: nope. Still superuser FCs, this is starting to be annoying.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] sdtaddey:
Says Who??

I update from 0.07 to 0.08 ,change kernels ( Arabic and African) AND THERE'S NO NEED TO ROOT IT AGAIN!!!!

that's why now you're having this kind of issues with su.

I would start from scratch with a full wipe first. Something went wrong. Also, i agree with the latest post...i have swapped kernels before and never needed to re-root.
