[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graeme748:
OK, I know this sounds crazy, but...

I rooted my Desire late last year and I have tried several different ROMs on it. Most recently I was using Oxygen 2.0.3 and it was fine. I should have left it alone, but no I had to try something else. I installed MS_signed_CM_RC4 and although all seemed OK during the install, on re-boot, it would not go past the splash screen.

Then I saw LeeDroid v3, so I have been concentrating on getting that running. Unfortunately now it seems that regardless of the ROM, I cannot get past the splash screen.

Details of the phone are:

BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.83.0001

MICROP-051D

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.17.05.08

Jun 10 2010, 12:12:05

I have been using CWM 2.5.0.7 for a long time now and it's been just fine. I just tried to update this to 3.0.0.5-bravo, but again, it seemed to install, but I presume that because the phone will not complete a full boot sequence, it reverts back to 2.5.0.7.

I am totally frustrated with the phone and am willing to try anything to get it operational again. I would even consider going back to the original RUU, but I cannot see how I can do that from Recovery, which is the only thing that seems to be currently working.

Any ideas would be welcome.:mad:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cr1960:
have you tried to reinstall the Oxygen ROM (seeing that one worked for you in the past)? copy the rom down to your SD card, boot the phone into recovery and see how that goes.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graeme748:
Yes, thanks that was the first thing I tried! No luck - it just gets to that splash screen and hangs.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
Do it again but now with a full wipe (data/factory reset and cache) you can try other roms as well but make sure you read some of the rom thread because I believe some other people also have boot issues with leedroid v3.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhonybravo4u:
If you had a backup.. just restore via recovery
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Graeme748:
Well, now I am embarrassed. I had a backup and didn't think about using it. I have just done so and all is well with the world again - Oxygen is restored. Call me stupid!!!!

and thanks, so much!!

Cheers

Hi, I'm trying CM7 on Milestone and it seems to work perfectly. However, I use an app (Privacy guard) to lock apps like SMS and GMAIL.

It seems that CM sometimes kills the app making it useless. :(

Is there a way, like editing a conf file to set this app "persistent" or "immortal"?

I think that maybe this could be achieved using "priority", but I don't know if there is a better way. I'm not an expert :confused:

Any suggestion is appreciated. :)

Thank you in advance!

Q solved: how to keep specific process alive in cm7

Found it!

:)

In one of the latest release appeared in /system/build.prop an option to set up to 2 processes to keep alive.

Can't remember the exact setting name now, but you can find it easily just reading the settings file /system/build.prop

To edit and save this file you will have to remount the filesystem as read/write instead of read only. Just google that.

[General Questions and Answers] kukej:
I just got dungeon hunter 2 and for the most part it is an awesome hack n slash. After playing the game on normal i moved on to hard mode. For some reason there is an Issue with hard mode so randomly when you go into a dungeon you end up in a floor or wall. Once you there you cant go back and the save is worthless.

So I pose this question.

1. Where does gameloft put the save files on the evo version of dungeon hunter.

Once I have that I want to use a hex editor to change my save location and hopfully salvage my game.

One thing I noticed was that titanium backup did restore my save gaves so i am assuming that means it is in the sdcard data but i have looked through each file for "sav" and also search by modified data right after saving and came up with nothing.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.
[General Questions and Answers] n3st34:
yeah same problem here.move to hardmode and stucked in wall or in one place.i try find save files but no success. :(
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Probably somewhere in either /data/data/PACKAGENAME or /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/PACKAGENAME

or if you have a samsung galaxy i would check /dbdata/databases/PACKAGENAME too :)

do you need to be on a pc to view files like that? i have veiw hidden enabled on astro but still dont see any thing in the phone /data folder. (it is empty) or is there a file manager that can see those. also as a side note i am rooted and running cm7.

i found an iphone forum on the game... i know boo apple... and it is named d2h.settings.sav. i searched for d2h, set, sav, using astro from the Root directory with no luck. so i am guessing that it is something proprietary naming wise to gameloft on the android version.

one other thing

is there a hex reader / editor that can search an entire directory vs file by file?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
You might need root to view those files, use rootexplorer or the adb shell from the android sdk on your computer.
[General Questions and Answers] kukej:
I love you!!!! root explorer worked.

Using ROOT EXPLORER the location of the saves is...

/data/data/com.gameloft.android.TBFV.GloftD2HP.ML

I opened Dungeon Hunter 2 and the character slot which I wished to edit. The file whose time stamp changed was...

dh2_000.savegame

MAKE SURE TO BACK UP YOUR FILES BEFORE HEX EDITING AND CHANGE THE USER PERMISSIONS.

I am at work right now and will look into this more tonight once i get home.

if i could hit that thanks button 100x i would.

Dungeon Hunter 2 Perma Stuck in a wall or floor? This is the Fix!

Dungeon Hunter 2 character stuck in a wall / floor? THIS IS THE FIX.

1. Back up the save file you wish to fix, dh2.00x.savegame, where x = the character slot which your duder is saved in game.

2. Open the file in a hex editor, I used HxD. It works great and its free.

3. Go down to the line that says LNAM.

a. The top file you see in the image below is the corupted file where i was stuck in a wall in "bogwitch cavern".

b. The bottom file you see in the image below is a good save where i am in "the bogmarsh."

4. All you need to do is make your save file look like the bottom one, in the highlighted field, and you will have a playable game again.

a. I tested this after changing and it is playable again YAY!

Enjoy!

One slight change. Make sure to change from ( to the other ) I didnt highlight it in the 2nd picture there but I did change that in both files i got to work.

[General Questions and Answers] rr3636:
got 2 chars. 1st char is on normal, and 2nd char is on hard.

2nd char is stuck now as described in this thread.

I found 2 savegame files as indicated here. i'v tried to change both of them as here, and it works.... but only partially. 1st & 2nd char after this fix is now located in the new location - i.e. unstucking them. BUT it only affects the "normal" mode on both of them. the "hard" mode which is the one I want unstuck is unaffected by this hex-editing. I can't see any extra save game files for this one.

So any ideas to find out this one?
[General Questions and Answers] kukej:
open the game in hard and save it there before making the change. as part of the bug the game moves from hard to normal. once the most recient save is in hard then change the hex code. i have done this many times now because my game keeps bugging in bog witchcavern... i like to farm it for gear in the last difficultly.
[General Questions and Answers] kukej:
yeah i just got bugged out in the light house. the first time i exited in easy mode. maade the change and copied it back and like you said it only moved me in normal. i reopened the save slot with me stuck in the wall on hard mode and then exited so it was my most recient save. made the change and reopened the game. when i came back in the game this time i was in hard mode in bogmarsh. it seems to work as long as i do things in that order. hope this helps
[General Questions and Answers] rr3636:
tried it, but when I go into hard mode where i'm stuck it doesn't save when I try any of these combinations: wait long time, push "home" to pause the game, pause+exit to main menu, etc. I'v tried to make change like use a potion - but it doesn't save it. Maybe it only saves when xp change and you exit game?

the line you need to edit is right below your gear and easy to miss. this location data could be for the particular phone i have.

i tested your save on my phone and it worked :)

It almost sounds like there is something else wrong with your game rr3636. even though my game bugs i can still use the in game menu to exit and it updates the time stamp for hard mode save. if you can upload the file and i will give it a look.

server lag caused dupe post
[General Questions and Answers] rr3636:
found out of it. I used "ES file explorer" to copy/paste the save game files. Even though this has root mode, I have a rooted phone (with S-OFF also) it saved the save game files in read only.

Then I switched to "root explorer" and it saved the save game files without changing the read/write attributes of the files. So working now.

btw I have another solution for those stuck: at one point I reinstalled the game (no, I did not delete the 1gb download - just the small game apk file). In the process deleted all saves. then I copied the save game file back to the folder. yes, I was then missing some of the other save game files but it seems it doesn't matter. it still has all my data etc - and I'm unstuck.

I made the change to your file and left the orginal in there. I recomend that you get the hex editor HxD(it is really small) and you can use the check for difference option with both files open and it will show you what i changed.

[General Questions and Answers] kukej:
yeah rr3636 i had tried all that (just deleting the apk and not the data) and nothing was getting my dude out of the wall . kudos for solving your issue though but due to the not being able to save issue it sounded like the apk it self was corrupted and when you reinstalled it fixed that.

It is ridicuolous that GameLoft lets such a glaring error slip by on a production game. They should have done testing on every platform before shiping that game. You dont get every bug....understandable but this is pure crappy customer service that the only piece of advice they give is reinstall the game....sorry i rant when i get pissed >.<

Last night i saw triple loading screen(im on heroic) and load to normal... i said great need to hexediting again, but i load on heroic and dont stucked :)

But i try on hard and the char was stucked there :)

so in the previous posted loading steps make this nice trick, thx for the reinstall info rr3636 ;)
[General Questions and Answers] elothk:
Thanks to you kukej, i was able to salvage all my toons.

Btw, to makes life easier for you and all, all you need is to change the hex "2C" to "29" part and it will move your toons to boglands. Even you get stuck on different areas, just change that hex part to "29" and your back to boglands. I know "32" is temple of winds because i got stucked there on difficult mode, people can try other hex for different locations.

The first few times it moved the hard mode toons to boglands, the difficult is still stucked. But after a few more tries of logging out on difficult mode. the character finally moved to bogmarsh.

hope it helps

[General Questions and Answers] dragancla:
Hey, I just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!! for the hex editing method of getting out of corrupt saves in dungeons. I am now clearing my way through Heroic difficulty and I will post a list of all the dungeons that get you stuck (with screenshots aswell).

Now, I am fairly curious, if you can use hex editing to modify your location, can you by any chance use hex editing to...say...reset talent points? :D Cuz, being the first time I have played this, I just spread my talents randomly untill level 20 when I checked a guide, and I kinda want my talent points back (and possibly even stat points). Did anyone manage to find a way to do this?
[General Questions and Answers] dragancla:
Also, being on Heroic difficulty, hex editing does nothing to it...it edits my other difficulty locations though.

Oh and it moves normal difficulty to a stuck place in Boglands...

[General Questions and Answers] elothk:
I did more research and i found out that there is two stored location.

28 00 00 00 4c 4e 41 4d xx xx xx xx xx 00 00 00 xx xx xx xx xx 00 00 00 $$ 00 00 00 xx xx xx xx xx 00 00 00 %%

Whereas

$$ is location of mode 1

%% is location of mode 2

most of the time Hard is mode 1 and Difficult is mode 2

29 - boglands

32 - temple of winds

2d - world of ruins

1e - lighthouse entrance
