Yes when you have a pc10img.zip on your SD it will try to update, and will not let you boot to recovery from there, that's why taking out SD let's you boot to recovery.

I don't know what you are trying to do exactly but it sounds like you just need to remove the pc10img.zip (or whatever) then flash a on through recovery

Ok I installed 2.2.1 MiniCM-1.0.0-RC2 CM-6.1.3 for the X8 which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=964223

My problem with it is that I feel it's very ugly and generally hate the look of it. Can anyone make a theme that will make it look EXACTLY like Racht's Floyo v0.15 which can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914513

I prefer the look and how easy on the eyes this rom looks so if anyone could make a theme that makes the miniCM RC2 look like racht's or link me to a tutorial on how to make a theme (i'm a n00b so nothing to difficult) I would be very grateful. :)

[Thunderbolt General] what25:
I understand this is the Bolt forum, but I'm just wondering if Verizon will release a 4G phone that is not a smartphone?

Reason I ask is because during rooting or firmware changes your phone is basically out of commission, so if you could swap the SIM to another phone until thats done, that way you don't have to miss your calls.

I did the same thing when I had the nexus one. I would put the T-Mo sim onto a $20 prepaid phone until I finished a ROM change/upgrade. That way I didn't miss calls or texts.

I know some of you will say that I could put the SIM in another Bolt or in a Bionic or something, but that $500+ outright.
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
I doubt it. The flip phone days are numbered. All carriers would prefer to sell smartphones that require data plans (=more profit)
[Thunderbolt General] what25:
That may be, but there has to be ATLEAST one non-smartphone that they would release, atleast as a prepaid, for the budget-conscious.
[Thunderbolt General] yareally:
I dont really see the point of a 4g feature phone. Maybe when they roll out voice over LTE they'll have that, but feature phones have what, a 25 or 250mb limit for their data packages? You can reach that cap in a few minutes on their 4g network, lol.
[Thunderbolt General] nerozehl:
I doubt they'd do that. What would the point be, anyways? What flip-phone or feature-phone is going to need that kind of raw power? I can just see it now - a 74 year-old man trying to figure out how to stream YouTube on his Jitterbug 4GLTE phone.
[Thunderbolt General] adrynalyne:
Once verizon switches entirely to 4G, sure. Until then? Im sure its not a priority.
[Thunderbolt General] moosez3:
Exactly, until voLTE is everywhere, minimum couple years, they wouldnt think about it. I honestly cant wait for this, if they could make a phone that only needed the LTE sim card, no CDMA or EVDO radios, that would be awesome!
[Thunderbolt General] GrdLock:
Seriously? You want a completely separate phone just so you can have it on while you're updating the ROM?

It would take more time to switch service over to the other phone and then back than it would to install the ROM. Installing a new ROM takes what, 2 or 3 minutes max.

Really?
[Thunderbolt General] Mr. Transistor:
I wouldn't be surprised if big red did away with feature phones once 4g is in full affect, and data is tiered
[Thunderbolt General] Odinist:
This.

(And a few more characters.)
[Thunderbolt General] sublimaze:
OP must be insanely popular if he misses calls/texts during the 30 seconds it takes to flash a rom :p

but seriously, it would be nice to drop your sim into a cheap backup phone in case you brick your daily driver. this happened to me with my captivate (3 finger recovery didn't work)
[Thunderbolt General] ckochinsky125:
I was thinking the same thing lol. How old is this person like 15? I mean are you really getting that many text messages and calls you cant wait 5 minutes?:rolleyes:

[Thunderbolt General] xXJay_RXx:
whats a flip phone? :confused:
[Thunderbolt General] what25:
Thanks for the suggestions, and criticisms.

And yes, I get calls during upgrades.

The call forwarding seems like a good option. But how much would that cost? And is it not-toll-free to forward a call from my cell to another number thats a different area code?

And, yes I know some people who have landlines to keep the telemarketers and credit card companies off their cell during the day. Apparently its less of a hassle to pay for it than deal with those calls.
[Thunderbolt General] FreemanB:
Better yet, just get a Google Voice number and use that as your primary number. Then you can have the call ring anywhere you want, even on your computer. No need to worry about keeping a separate phone just for this specific situation.
[Thunderbolt General] Dnakaman:
+1 That is a very easy solution.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tannerw_2010:
So this is kind of an odd topic to bring up, but I am going camping tommorow night and I need some sound to help me sleep a little better-- that is where my hero comes into play. I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions on the best way to save the most juice possible while listening to music (hopefully to at LEAST make it through about 8-10 hours)?

What I am planning on doing is having airplane mode on, having my clock settings to a MAX of around 170 mhz on power save (I am using AOSP 2.3.3 w/setcpu) and possible having a task killer so the only app running is my music app. Other things like lock home in memory, VM heap size and JIT are other variables I have no clue how it affects my battery life. What do you guys think? I am open to any suggestions.

And P.S., flooding out the bugs chirping does not ruin the point of camping ;)

Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleepyEDB:
If you're open to solutions other than music, you might want to check out an app in the Market called Relax and Sleep. It's basically a 'noise machine' designed to use for extended periods of time, though you may still have to test it before you leave to see if it actually uses less power than the music app.

During my Tests with several AT Commands and Firmware Flashing I've lost 1 day...

No idea when... :confused:

I've only seen 000000000 for WiFi. :eek:

So I thought no panic... its an NV item...

BT is NV 447 and I have NV Backups enough...

Today I looked again... :eek: :D

My Wi-Fi Adress is back. No idea how it come back. :D

So it seems Wave has some "self healing" mechanism. :cool:

So NV Backup seems on Wave...

Anyway. someone knows the NV ID for WiFi Address?

Thanx in advance.

should i open BT in the cell itself???
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
447 means Decimal... so in HEX 1BF

Yeah, sometimes little bit complicated... :D

BT address is since years STANDARD ID. Minimum since 2005... maybe earlier...

So I thought someone can tell me fast the WiFi ID. :o

mylove90 its okay. No panic we will find it one day.

Its NOT important for now. As it is fixed on my handset.

Its only interesting to know, if I loose it again. :D

Thanx for helping. :cool:

Oh yea, maybe your MAC returned to be valid after phone reboot?

AMSS NV backup (it's called backup in Bada, but I do believe it's the only place for some settings) address on S8500 is 0x1E700000, it's directly parsed into Qualcomm NV Items during AMSS bootup. You can find your MAC addresses, IMEI, product code and alot of unidentified settings there, it's about 20kB big. (IMEI is there only in backup purposes, it is stored there only since some bada 1.2 ver)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
First off you should power it off completely, then hold the power button and volume down at the same time. Next, you need to navigate the bootloader and go down(with volume down key) and select recovery with the power key. That should take you to recovery. I hope you made a nandroid before you flash another rom; if you did just restore your nandroid and you should be good to go.

Probably was quicker and less trouble than trying to work through the other.

When you get to the stock, you might want to run Settings/Security/Wipe

Factory Data just to make absolutely sure you're good to go.

Once you get back to stock, you can OTA back up to 3588 and from there you

can go where you want to.
