Hello, I've tried to build a custom kernel base on the guide from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=622916

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and the rest is as in the guide. I've setup the environment, everything work, including the kernel build and boot.img.

Like I said, I've got no errors, but the newly created boot.img it's not booting my HTC Tatttoo, the phone starts and those do anything besides displaying the Tatttoo logo.

The build kernel is based on the kernel found at: http://dl4.htc.com/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/click-656120.tar.gz and was build without any modification to the kernel config. I mean, I've got the config from my HTC, /proc/config.gz.

When into the kernel source zcat config.gz > .config

then make oldconfig and make.

Also wlan.ko was build without any problems too.

Does anyone know how to see whats going on, why its not booting? Or is there a way to disable all the "logos" so I can see the output of the kernel booting, just like on a normal PC?

And what is flash using the latest RUU ?

gold card is just a term. the step of creating it is here ..

http://android.modaco.com/content/general-discussion/305672/creating-a-goldcard/

RUU is the standard HTC rom.

The latest one is build 1.84.832

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=993183&highlight=ruu

but the early version ( when i bought my DHD ) is build 1.32

you can do this step if you want to revert to build 1.32

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905003&highlight=downgrade

please be aware that if you use build other than 1.32, you can't root. you will just stuck there (unless you downgrade back to 1.32) ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkoljo:
He is only trying to unroot, not unbrand.

Just get a RUU that matches your current build number, and run it. Simple :)

I but the android version 2.2.1 on my htc hd2 and my question is is it normal that the batterie is holding only 1 day?
[Touch HD General] tsalta:
Hello guys i havae some problem with my Blackstone i use it from 2.5 years and i never had problem like this so..

Now when i recharging my device always stay on same % for example even for 1 hour its show always 20% or 50% or anything depends when i put it on the charger..

After restart can show 100% full or anything.. so i found out that the indicator absolutly do not work so if i restart it and show me the real % for example 50% the device always will show 50% battery untill the battery is fully discharged..

And right now i dont know how much Batterry i have and when will need to recharge..

I don`t know but i think this is a battery problem? i use this battery from the begining i mean from more than 2.5 years and maybe is time to change it?! but this heppand when i drop my device once on the floor so do thee is posible by droping the device some senzor to be broken or this is not posible i mean its a battery problem and i will need to buy new one?! or give me some idea how to test this and fix it.

Now no matter that the indicator do not work i still can use my device 1-2 days with one charge even if always show 20% this mean that in the battery itself have power for 2 days conversation internet and etc.. but just do not shown right.

Do anyone of you had the same problem ? and how do you fix it?

Also im looking to buy battery from ebay and i found today this :

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-TOUCH-HD-...ultDomain_3&hash=item4aa9446824#ht_3230wt_905

What you think about this battery ? or can someone who already bought battery from ebay point me to get some good one:)

I read in the Diamond forum that peoples expirience the same problem with the indicator and even after Hard Reset or flashing new ROM the problem is still there.. so if this is right then i dont have reason to Flash again my device if the problem will be still here.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks
[Touch HD General] tsalta:
I did some tests... so i fully discharge the battery and i saw that even when the battery was on 0% and always the Warning appear i was able to play with the the Device with Wi Fi ON and Games and Music around 45 minutes wow.. this mean that the battery somehow was not calibratet and when its shows 0% in her still have around 30 40 % so after fully discharge the battery till the device Turn OFF by itself then few times turn it ON till there is not enought power even the WinMo to Startup i put it while OFF on the Charger and i was able to recharg to 100% and the light become green this mean the senzor itself work maybe just the battery need calibration again.

Now will see do the indicator work corectly after few more recharges and will write here for peoples who have the same problems in the future:)
[Touch HD General] raving_nanza:
...

hi dude, i think you should simply buy a new battery, but preferably an

official

htc battery - rather than the unofficial gold one you have posted a link to on ebay.

if you do decide to buy a new battery then put the new battery into your blackstone and charge while device is turned

off

.

this should fix your problem :)

[Touch HD General] tsalta:
Actually i think its not Battery die problem because i did some test and i see improvment my battery last at least 2-3 days with alot of usage wifi and etc so this is more than normal.. the problem was that the indicator do not work corectly and like i wrote above i discharge fully the battery till the device die and i saw that when my battery was on 0% i still play alot alot my device to swtich off this mean that befor when the indicator shows 0% its remain anorhter 30 40% power this heppand due to 2.5 years usage and i recharge the device when i have time not always when is fully without power and i think that this cause somehow a discalibration of the Li Ion so today when i did the trick i see improvments and now the indicator start to count ever single % so i think when i do this one or two more times the Battery will be calibratet and will show very corect how much Power i still have.

I think this way because if this battery was already died the device will not last 2-3 days with super usage.

[Android Themes] S.Meezy:
styles.xml refers to a defined value inside of drawables.xml which gives those "named values" a hex color... so u can add your own, possibly? or pick white and hope it doesn't mess more up?

\res\drawable\solid_white_background.xml defines it as:

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_selected="false" android:drawable="@drawable/solid_white" />
<item android:state_selected="true" android:drawable="@android:drawable/list_selector_background" />
</selector>

so i went hunting and got that @ \res\values\drawables.xml "solid_white" is defined as #ffffffff

- <resources>
<item type="drawable" name="solid_white">#ffffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="solid_black">#ff000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="clear">#00000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="feedback_background_color">#fff2f2f2</item>
<item type="drawable" name="post_date_color">#ff888888</item>
<item type="drawable" name="gray_text_color">#ff999999</item>
<item type="drawable" name="blue_text_color">#ff6085b8</item>
<item type="drawable" name="text_color">#ff424242</item>
<item type="drawable" name="login_font_color">#ff455898</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_background_color">#ffdfe5ee</item>
<item type="drawable" name="profile_background_color">#fff8f8f9</item>
<item type="drawable" name="profile_photo_background_color">#a0dfe5ee</item>
<item type="drawable" name="icon_bar_selected">#fffc7b00</item>
<item type="drawable" name="icon_bar_pressed">#ffff9900</item>
<item type="drawable" name="icon_bar_default">#ff3a5897</item>
</resources>

also, not sure if you know this but when u put in ur new color code, make sure to keep the #ff in the beginning, because android uses 8 characters, the first 2 being the transparency so i think yours would be #ff262626 can't really remember what u put, but i think that's it. it could b the styles.xml u need to edit, i guess play around, i just saw the one file called solid_white_background and that looked more promising to me
[Android Themes] clem2595:

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeGuido:
[SOLVED]

I started the procces to flash in a custom rom, but being very careful, I proceed step by step, reading a lot in the forum.

First I rooted my X10 : I chose Z4root method, because it can be done without a PC, it comes with temporary root and unroot option. I know it work, because I can use apps that require root (easytether for instance).

Then I installed xRecovery. I could boot in xRecovery (though I had to make a couple restart before succeeding) and I made a backup.

Finally I rode a lot on different rom. It took me a long time and many days ellapsed since my xRecovery backup, so when I finally made up my mind, a new backup is required.

And then come my problem : I can't boot in xRecovery anymore.

I know I have to press 'back' several time 'just after SE label'. Well, when I boot my phone I first get a SE label, then an animation and a new SE label (with image logo). I tried to press 'back' many time at both two SE label, then press and hold, even tried the 'home' button. I never boot in xRecovery.

As I am a bit paranoid, I don't let my phone rooted when not required. I reroot everytime I need it. And of course I did it before trying to boot in xRecovery. Could it be that I messed up xRecovery doing this ? I tried to reinstall xRecovery, but obviously it does nothing (I have 'file already exist' message for each of the three 'cp commands).

I feel a bit dumb ending up asking for such a silly problem, but there must be something obvious I miss, and I can't find out what.

Thank you just for reading.

You have to press it a few times right after the very first SE logo appears.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeGuido:
Well I still can't boot in xRecovery whatever I do. I press many time 'back' just after first SE label but I get nothing but normal boot. I guess smething is messed up with xRecovery. I'd like to reinstall it, so I first need to have a way of uninstalling it.

Thank you anyway.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CMoney87:
Why wouldn't you just leave the phone rooted? really doesn't make any sense and means you can't use root apps. Rooting your phone does nothing to void your warranty and without the bootloader being unlocked there is nothing you could do to mess it up that couldn't be fixed by simply reflashing.
