[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TinyAggie:
driver problem?

I followed the unrevoked instructions and my computer recognizes the phone while it's in bootloader

i can also adb shell into it when it's just normally powered on etc

oh and to answer previous question, yes i updated to 2.2 using fastboot

i put IMG99.zip onto my sdcard

powered on while holding the volume down for fastboot

it went and found the image on my sd card and grabbed it...and asked if I wanted to update...and viola...2.2

my phone was...2.0 or 2.1 when i first got it i think...i forgot what it was before 2.2

that's why i asked if anyone just stuck a custom rom into their SD card and tried using fastboot before....seems like everyone these days use things like rom manager, unrevoked etc >_<

I would think that the fastboot would find the zip file and can unzip and load it just like how it did the testkey one i did before....but i thought i would ask before i tried....maybe i should wait next week until i'm at home and have sd card readers in case anything goes wrong so i can recover the phone easier lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
There is a reason why people don't do that.. When you flash that way via fastboot, it only allow zip files signed by HTC, if you are s-on, and those write everything on the system to stock, which means you lose root and custom/modified recovery.

You could potentially do it that way if you were s-off, but the bootloader flashing utility does not allow as sophisticated commands as the custom recovery does, so everything in the original roms is actually packed in .img files for every partition.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghalalb:
All good advice.

I offered mine as my Desire would not accept CWM 2.5.0.7 (to this day it doesn't), and it would only accept CWM 2.5.1.8 or AmonRa 2.0.1. (as they work on PVT4 with a 40000 page) As for unrevoked, the only version that works for my Desire is 3.2.1, the latest (which I think is 3.3.2) doesn't work on my Desire.

It seems the longer these phones are around, the more individualised rooting and recovery has become, so advice should maybe always come with a word of caution.

***this is what worked for my device***

TinyAggie, I hope you are getting there!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
Yep :) new page size will require the modified cwm for it, but it still has nothing to do with hboot version. However the other recoveries should flash ok as well, they just won't work well for installing roms(gave some error), which he hasn't come to yet :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TinyAggie:
I found the same thing that only unrevoked 3.2 would work with my device.

I finally managed to flash the custom rom and is what i did to make it all work >_< Maybe it'll help someone else

I started with a fresh official load by flashing the RUU.

Then I used unrevoked that you can download from their website

I still got an error. CID missing. I go searching for it and it seems like a common enough error that the unrevoked team had addressed it

Because of the error, it was not able to unroot and flash recovery properly. The only thing it did was s-off.

So 2 ways to get root/recovery on your phone

1. Manually....find a PB99IMG.ZIP file that has root in it and flash that, then you can either use rom manager to flash the recovery or do it manually as well.

I created my own PB99IMG.zip with the recovery image of clockworkmod for desire using the android info .txt file I had in my other PB99IMG that contained the root access. Put the PB99IMG.zip into your SD card, go to Flash boot and let it do it's magic.

2. Easier way, get unrevoked 3.2 ... There was a warning for using it. Apparently you should only use the 3.2 version if you get the CID error.

But with unrevoked 3.2 it will give you superuser and the recovery image without you doing anything so it's easier.

So after I finally got Root, I backed up my sd card onto my comp.

Then I partitioned my SD card using ROM manager.

Once that was done, i flashed into recovery to do a backup.

After that I tried using ROM manager to flash leedroid...

it looked ok but it never managed to get past the splash screen after 20mins so I pulled the battery and rebooted

Same problem so I decided to flash manually.

Went into recovery and cleared everything then flashed the rom from SD.

Now I'm on leedroid

So far it looks exactly the same as the stock rom. It has everything I need so I'm happy.

I hope this helps anyone with similar problems.

Sometimes you just can't take the easy way out and have to do things manually

I am attempting to make a flashable zip that adds MIUI camera and a boot animation to CM7. Every time I attempt to flash my zip, I get 'Installation Aborted' with no other messages or errors. I am at a loss to what I've done wrong, and I think I signed it correctly.

I attached my file, any help would be appreciated.

I am also at a loss for what exactly the update-binary file is for, or how to go about getting one.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conap:
you can try changing

mount("MTD", "system", "/system");

to

mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");

take out the mounts and unmounts of data and cache...you don't need them. If it still fails you can do adb pull cache/recovery/log x (where x is location and name of where you want to save it)

the log will give you more detail of why it's failing but it's probably that line.

If someone suggests u a fix to this issue, first try that one......

Thinking its happening everytime u power on the device.

My suggestion is......As ur phone is not rooted, u may do a factory reset and check whether it is a software issue.

Factory reset option will be available both in the os and in the hboot menu.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pointless816:
So about 3 days ago, I installed SyndicateROM Frozen (excellent work ACS!), and while it has worked superbly (beyond the ever-looming fear that Vision Kernel 1.2 will brick it...), I have lost my MSL. For whatever reason, using Connectbot and getprop no longer brings up the MSL. I used to have it saved in the stock Memo app, however in the bloatware purge that comes with installing SFR, this was deleted. As this stupid stock app stored all the memos somewhere within the app itself, my question is this:

Though I didn't nandroid backup prior to flashing SFR, is the memo app backed up somewhere so that I might flash back to the version I had and thereby regain my MSL?

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chris41g:
Only if it stored the memos on the data partition. If so load the apk back on and they should still be there.. if not I can help you get your msl with cdmaworkshop or qxdm no problem

Did you use Titanium or Mybackup? The data will be there and just restore the app then you can restore the data. The data is stored like all others and restoring just the app won't help if you didn't backup all the data. Let me know if you need the apk.

I have HTC MOZART, NODO Build, unbranded in indonesia.

Now my question is, once every 2-3 weeks, I got his kind of error. Basically The internet connection is gone when this happens, and I cannot update anything, unless of course I connect to zune in my laptop and use usb for internet connection shared from the laptop.

The only way to fix this AFAIK is by restarting the device (or remove the battery, and put back in)... hold the on button until off and turn on again is suffice though....

I dont mind restarting the phone within that interval, it is just weird and I tried to google and looked it up everywhere, I have not got the right explanation. Restarting the phone WORKS every time btw.

Anybody knows what this error is?

I see that many others experience this and still no answer

Conap's CELB Froyo is amazingly stable and zippy as heck..

I have that running on my buddy's phone as well as my wife's.. absolutely a "flash and forget" ROM.

-Xith
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Letitride:
FroShedYo's Final is my preferred daily rom, up-to-date, run as is with options for further customization/OC tuning, etc. and very good on battery. Nonsensikal's ROM coming in 2nd. on 2.2 OS for me - keep a Nand backup on the SD card while running FSY's ROM so it's a fairly bullet-proof setup - not the fastest, slickest or necessary best on battery run, but very close in all categories.

+1 as others said about various GB 2.3 ROMs floating here on XDA, several are close to perfection with more fine tuning & minor bugs resolved, would be great - none of them, I feel, are the "flash & forget, leave it" status yet for the non-geek users. The ASOP, plain/almost Vanila type GB ones like OMGB and Condemned V5 CM7 running fairly smooth overall. In general, 2.3 OS loaded on the Eris sometimes has issues with GPS, camera & MMS, etc. - known "bugs" noted by some users and being worked on & some felt it's hardware-built specific .... even for the Kaos/Tazz/Workshed ROMs.

Aside from rooting the phone, which I assumed most of us on here took as a given, is to flash the C2C as it will free up extra memory/storage space by moving it to the SD card - so proper preparation pre-flash (format/wipe, etc.) I use 3 different SD (16, 8 & a 4 GB) cards so that I can play with several ROMs while keeping my "working" primary ROM on the master and easily switch back & restore .... Running widgets & other settings also affect how smoothly a ROM run, as is battery calibration & conditioning, as I'm sure you know.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
The Eris Froyo ROMs, as far as I know, all have issues with long-term GPS use, like navigation, where the GPS radio goes screwy after about 20 minutes or so. This was fixed in all of the GB ROMs, as far as I can tell (I have used Runkeeper to log a 3 hour run with GSB and it was perfect.)

That said, if you want fast, set and forget, no bugs, no "weirdness" (i.e., long-press menu to get the keyboard in order to press 1 or 2 when you dial *228 in the Froyo and GB ROMs; hold VolUp while you press Send to wake the screen when you are in a speakerphone or BT call and the display times out in the Froyo and GB ROMs) - IMHO you want xtrSENSE. I think that the GB and Froyo ROMs are worth a try, but I would also install, set up and Nandroid backup an xtrSENSE build just in case. The only thing that xtrSENSE is missing is the cool Google Voice Actions that comes with the Froyo and above Google search app.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
If you are comparing to a D2, yes, it will always have lag. Try some other ROMs if you wish, but, in the end, you are running a phone with hardware that first came out two years ago - April 2009 for the Magic; June 2009 for the Hero. The only difference was Sense and more megapixels on the camera when the Hero was released; the Eris added the proximity sensor. Otherwise, it's the same phone.

All the devs have been doing great work on the GB ROMS, but none of them really get along with my little Eris. I have tried just about every ROM out there and xtrSense and CELB Froyo are the absolute best for me. Been running CELB lately because I got tired of the Sense UI.
