can anyone tell me which ROM uses 2.3.3 gingerbread firmware as a base firmware of any ROM in this forum?? i tried reading but had a hardtime figuring out which one of those uses a 2.3.3 firmware as a base of the ROM?

do the darky's rom uses 2.3.3 base firmware??:(:confused:

Are you asking about which ROM is flashable through ODIN, so that you can install a custom ROM directly without the need of installing a stock base ROM?

he's asking what roms are based on 2.3.3

"1) Follow This guide to install GB Bootloaders: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1047924

2) Make sure you have first done a nandroid total backup and a backup of your apps with Titanium Backup

3) Install via Odin a Modded Kernel (like SpeedMod or Damian)

it says on the simply honey instruction that i have to install a kernel?? ahm, which kernel is that faster or the best kernel in your opinions? my phone is so i dont need to backup anything does it matter installing the rom?? what are bootloaders for? sorry for noob questions. im totally new on this phone. just making sure everything goes well to avoid bricking my phone.

So im going to take my phone in to the sprint store tomorrow because the camera is all grainy and messed up now. I tried to wipe it several times but its still grainy. Its probably from cyanogen and all the flashing but i cant tell. What are the steps i can take to go back to stock before i go there? How do i unroot and so on?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Go to the unrevoked site, download the s-on tool, flash in recovery, make sure you become s-on.

Then download a 3.70 RUU in PC36IMG form, or as an exe and then run it.

If you do the exe form, make sure the phone is connected in fastboot before you run.

Dont i have to flash the stock rom first?

No, because if you do that, you could be left with s-off, then they'll know you were rooted. That's why you run the s-on first.

Make sure you delete them after your back to stock so sprint wont see them on your sd card.

If you don't turn S on and you flash anything other then stock RUU there is always a chance you will get your warranty voided if they decide to do a hard reset and boot your phone into bootloader they will see it so why risk it.

[Desire HD General] Prodelin:
I am trying to downgrade from stock GB 2.3.3 ROM.

My SD card has now disappeared when i tried to put the PD98img.zip file on it.

When i tried to change from USB charging to disk drive there isn't any option anymore for disk drive.

However the SD drive and it's contents is shown in Astro file manager, very strange

I did this as per instructions:

1. Download Gingerbreak, and install it. Then tap root button.

2. You might get force close errors, just click the force close button and let Gingerbreak do it's job

3. Gingerbreak will, in the end, usually say that something went wrong. Just leave it open in your phone, and connect your phone to a PC. Charge only, USB Debugging enabled!

4. Open up a cmd and go to Downgrade folder, execute commands: (after command "su", allow SuperUser in phone)

adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version

adb shell

su

If you got "#" in the result, you have temporary root! Proceed with commands:

Code:

cd /data/local/tmp

./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6

Next step is to put the PD98img.zip file on SD card so i tried to change the USB connection but the option is gone to connect to the SD.

Also when i go to Settings my SD card is not available, the system can not see any SD and i can't mount it either, it's gone.

What should i do now?
[Desire HD General] cracksquirrel:
put the SD into ur pc, simples
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
Take out the sd card and reinsert it.

Then put the PD file on the SD card before beginning the process.
[Desire HD General] Prodelin:
I rebooted it now and now i can choose USB disk drive.

What is the cause this was happening in the first place? somehow Gingerbreak did something.
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
I think it was trying to remove things whilst still mid adb shell.
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
[EDIT] Said something that wasn't quite right so removed, thanks for the heads up jkoljo.

[Desire HD General] jkoljo:
That is incorrect, gingerbreak also works without S-OFF, like in the downgrade guide. The difference is, with S-OFF you get permanent root, and without it only temporary, which is enough for downgrading.

[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
What problems are you having trying to downgrade your Telus DHD?

Sent from my Ericsson T39m
[Desire HD General] JSLEnterprises:
what, with gingerbread or downgrading.... in my case, both.

gingerbreak will say its attempting, let it go into standby, then go back to using the phone, gingerbreak will say there's an error, reboot the phone..... you're rooted.

If you want to go downgrade, just use the RUU, it overides everything (something that the recovery tool isnt able to do when using the p98img.zip)

Downgrading and rooting with simple steps and no code entry, Made it, and it works for the Telus DHD and Inspire 4G

(Our Telus DHD's are the exact hardware twin of the Inspire 4G; unlike the Euro/Asian DHD's which have different radio controllers)
[Desire HD General] goodrench:
My trouble is getting su to work. Gingerbreak gets to the error message and when I "adb shell " to the phone it will not accept su. (Permission denied)

What ruu are you referring to? I tried 1.32 and 1.84, and they both fail.

I attempted to use the ruu downloaded from the link in the previous post and it failed saying bootloader version error.

Any thoughts?
[Desire HD General] goodrench:
success!!!

Had an old version of superuser installed from the telus dhd permanent root files that I previously downloaded. Uninstalled superuser and downloaded from market.

Also had phone unplugged from pc while running gingerbreak. previously left it plugged in through whole procedure.

Hope this helps someone else.

[Nook Color Android Development] HamNCheese:
NOTE - this is for 1.2 Nootered devices only

Here's a free little app I wrote that I hope many of you will find useful...

Once you permanently set your home launcher to something other than the Barnes and Noble launcher, it can be difficult to switch back and forth. Apps like Home Switcher can do the job, but there's no easy way to create a direct shortcut to the B&N Home UI.

The B&N launcher is neat for organizing your book collection, but it sucks for organizing apps.

Likewise, 3rd party launchers are great at organizing and launching apps, but are lacking when it comes to managing your book library.

So, I present to you...

NookHome - a dedicated app to launch the Barnes and Noble Home app from your launcher of choice.

Download here: http://www.mediafire.com/?3ey4ddwmxiwl8hy

Launch the app, and the B&N home screen will appear. Like magic.

Enjoy!
[Nook Color Android Development] calee2009:
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not, but I installed it, tried to launch and I get nothing. Just goes back to my regular home screen. I'm running phiremod v6.2.
[Nook Color Android Development] poofyhairguy:
I imagine this only works on the rooted stock OS.
[Nook Color Android Development] DiscoPh3v3r:
Only works for rooted stock. Not nookie froyo, honeycomb, CM7, phiremod(CM7) nada, just (rooted)stock 1.1 or 1.2
[Nook Color Android Development] HamNCheese:
Correct. This does not install the B&N launcher on your device. It simply invokes the stock app that is already there, without going through the hassle of running something like Home Switcher to do so.
[Nook Color Android Development] doncaruana:
Thanks for doing this!

You know, the "Last Book" icon is one of my pet peeves and the fact that it works in 1.1 but not 1.01 (or 1.2 I hear). On my 1.01, as long as the home app is at least loaded, the last book icon works, but as soon as something unloads it, the icon doesn't work anymore.

On my 1.1, I can unload everything and the damned icon still works! As a matter of fact, if I use it, it loads the home app in the background.

I haven't put this on my 1.2 NC yet (still haven't rooted it) it but, and more to the point...

First, how do you get back to the default launcher if you use this? And, more importantly, will it leave the home launcher running in the background or flat out unload it? If it leaves it running then I can have my last book icon working and be happy!

Don't know what instore access is like but wondering if the home app is key to that as well...
[Nook Color Android Development] bikercr:
Great little app! After using it and switching back to Zeam, the last-read book icon is reset and works. Brilliant.
[Nook Color Android Development] Bobioden:
Great app. Thanks for sharing. This was exactly what I was looking for.
[Nook Color Android Development] HamNCheese:
This is something I plan to address soon. The B&N Home app has to be running in order for this to work right at the moment. If it is not started (or is killed by you or the system) it stops working.

When you hit the "n" key for the first time, Android will display the "which app do you want to use to complete this action" dialog. Most people have chosen Zeam, ADW, or some other launcher - when you check the box to make the selection permanent, it becomes impossible (without another app or hacking in the development menu) to return to the B&H Nome screen.

So, the idea here is you install this app, then you can have one-click access to B&N via the home screen, dock, whatever, of your "preferred" launcher. That is assigned to the "n" key.

"n" key (from any app, including B&N Launcher) --> Launcher

NookHome (from Launcher) --> B&N Launcher

and so on...

[Nook Color Android Development] FreeMan2012:
Thanks for this nifty little utility!

This may not be the right place to ask, but I'm trying to create a shortcut for this (or any app) on the desktop, and it's not working.

In Zeam, I long-press the screen, select "add item", then "shortcut", and it takes me to the BN Home screen, not to a picker listing all my apps.

I've installed LauncherPro (my favorite for my phone), and I get the same behavior: Long-press, shortcuts -> BN Home.

(Please direct me to a more appropriate forum if necessary...)

TIA!

[Nook Color Android Development] NewZJ:
Open the app drawer, long press on the icon, drag to where you want it on the home screen
[Nook Color Android Development] robjective:
Thanks for making this! Now I can set the home key to Zeam on my wife's nook, and just park the B&N launcher in the Zeam tray. Best of both worlds.

@FreeMan2012: What NewZJ said is the way I've always done app shortcuts, and it worked on wife's 1.2 Nook yesterday. I long pressed on the B&N app to get it on the homescreen, then long-pressed and dragged it down the the dock.
[Nook Color Android Development] FreeMan2012:
Wow! Thanks, guys. I had no idea about the long press in the app drawer. Worked as advertised!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burillo:
Hi all

My Galaxy S went nuts. Something is very wrong with it. I will try to provide as much details as possible.

Today i was using it as usual, sending messages on facebook, reading email... and suddenly my mail client freaked out and force-closed. This has never happened before (i use K9 mail), so i just restarted it, only to see that there is no more messages in inbox. Trying to "load more" got force close again.

So i thought, OK, **** happens - clear data, uninstall, reinstall. However, when i cleared the data something weird begun to happen. Apps started force closing one by one.

OK, i thought, **** happens - rebooting the phone should help. Only that it didn't help - apps still force closed.

OK, i thought, **** happens - clear data of every app, uninstall and reinstall. I got backups anyway. So i cleared all the data, uninstalled all i had and rebooted. However, apps still force closed, and when i went to app manager - surprise surprise! - all the apps i uninstalled a cluple of minutes ago were still there.

Now this was already kinda freaky, but OK, **** happens - i rebooted into clockwork (i have voodoo lagfix) and wiped the hell out of my phone. Rebooted - but the apps i uninstalled were still there, even after full wipe! Now i escapes me how exactly ANY app (let alone all apps) could survive wipe to factory defaults.

Just to be sure that i'm not dreaming, i rebooted to clockwork once again, wiped everything two times and restored a backup from a month ago. The apps were still there.

I am going to try disabling lagfix as a last resort, but for now i am out of ideas, as this is clearly way out of line with what could be considered normal.

Now to the details of what i have installed - froyo, voodoo lagfix, superuser, busybox blablabla, some common apps like skype, facebook, astro, poweramp player, launcher pro, k9 mail, newsrob, blogaway, easyprofiles, pansi sms, mapdroyd, google shopper, qr droid. That's pretty much it. I have one of the custom battery icon mods that could be found here on boards.

Any ideas about what is wrong and how to make it right?

Problems never walk alone - i would, but my laptop has died a week ago...

However, i think i found the cause - looks like for some reason, some of the partitions (including, apparently, internal sd card and data partition) mount as read only. This could explain all that is happening. Is there a way to correcr this without reflashing?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebazman:
go into recovery and fix permissions , if that doesnt work then as said before
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burillo:
I have tried all possible solutions - from restoring from backups i made earlier, and down to flashing back to different ROMs - namely JPM, JPC, JM8. With repartitioning and without repartitioning.

Moreover, when i mount the SD card on the PC - i can delete files (well, it looks that way) but then when i reboot and mount again - everything is back to the state it was before.

Now i can't even boot my phone. Sometimes it can't mount stl10, sometimes it can't mount stl11. I went through all the solutions that were mentioned in the threads related to these errors. Also, when i format all the partitions (with voodoo's clockwork) it says everything went OK - i "can" reformat everything including internal SD card, repartition it etc. but then it goes back to what it was, and phone doesn't boot any ROM.

Any ideas? Can this be a hardware problem?

EDIT:

i tried to flash latest stock gingerbread ROM, and after installing a clockwork from here it boots but still doesn't work - starts force closing, can't load anything.

Formatting partitions with clockwork does not induce any errors, nor there are any errors mentioned at boot. however, even unmounting, formatting and mounting internal SD card doesn't affect it.

after flashing stock rom it says it cannot mount /data partition

EDIT 2: still no luck. i can't do anything with SD card. maybe there is some hardcore way with adb that i can try? like manually fscking up partitions so that i force reformat or something like that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Burillo:
i have been tinkering with my phone and now i am certain that the root of the problem is that the internal SD card went into read-only mode - and it doesn't get fixed with any sort of permission fixing, repartitioning or flashing ROMs. i've searched some more on this topic (now that i know what the problem is) and found that on one was ever able to successfully fix this problem. i just hope that the samsung guys fix it for free because it doesn't look like a user problem...
