[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
I wiped data and cahe and dalvik cache
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
How long did you let it sit before turning off/pulling battery/throwing at the wall? First boot can take upwards of 5 minutes.
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
Are you talking about the animation screen or the home screen after that? I let it set a few min at the home screen and nothing happened
[Thunderbolt General] bking_soda:
Just my .02.... When I and most others made the switch from froyo to gingerbread, it wasn't an exaggeration when we say "wipe, wipe, and wipe again". I wiped everything 3 times... By that I mean factory reset 3 times, wipe dalvik 3, batt stats and all 3 times. Flashed Rom in recovery, batt pull before reboot, volume down + power to get to hboot, flash radio and reboot. I had zero reboots upon startup and haven't had a problem since. Well at least no problems that weren't directly caused by experimenting with some stuff. When the phone does boot the first time, just walk away from it and let it do its thing. The kernel needs to settle. Don't jump in and start trying to set it up too fast. Patience helps a lot in the beginning.
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
So, it's loading, you unlock the screen, and it sits at a white HTC screen?
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
it looked like something forced closed right before the home screen?
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
it goes past the white htc screen, BAMF thunderbolt animation screen, something force closes really quick and it sits at the default rainbow like screen
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
Wipe data, reflash.
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
so if I have the PM05zip on my sd card Hboot will always try to update and I can't select any of the other choices?
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
Umm. How are you trying to flash? ROMs get flashed through clockwork.
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
PMO5.zip is the radio, right? ROM dloaded placed on the root of my sd card then flashed through clockwork mod, thats what I did

PG05IMG.zip
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
Radio will be PG05img.zip, yes.

Boot to recovery --> Wipe data --> flash ROM --> ADB reboot bootloader (or battery pull and power on + vol down) --> Flash radio in hboot --> Reboot

Ocassionally, I've seen people need to reflash the ROM, but it's rare.
[Thunderbolt General] bking_soda:
PG05IMG.zip I'm hoping you just typed it wrong twice. :/
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
yes I did lol
[Thunderbolt General] Persiandeity:
I had similar problems when first installing BAMF but i just waited for EVER and it finally did something... then I pulled the battery a few times and it just started working...

I have a different problem though... I had never flashed a radio before and did it through RomManager... then found out that was the wrong way... tried through HBOOT several times with different downloads and tried wiping everything a few times and new BAMF install and new radio image... but my phone says "IMEI: Unknown" and "baseband verision: unknown" and i get NO service...

Help??? :-(
[Thunderbolt General] 00dvanmeter:
well hey, I re-wiped everything a few times and reflashed the rom and "pull the ring to unlock"

Looks like I'm running gingerbread :) Thanks everyone this forum is great!
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
No problem!
[Thunderbolt General] erishasnobattery:
Sounds to me like the wrong radio. If it's BAMF 2.0+ you need this one: http://www.multiupload.com/HU471CMQI0
[Thunderbolt General] cmcconkey:
Well I have finally gotten a chance to redownload Bamf and I have gotten the same thing again. I guess I will flash and wipe a couple more times and see if it finally breaks loose. I am also getting something that force quits right off the bat even before I get to the force quit.

View attachment 607075

There is a pic of where my phone gets to every time.

Edit: Well it is finally up and running. I only had to wipe everything and reflash once.

Now my question is where can I find a stable kernel that will work with Bamf 2.0 b5?
[Thunderbolt General] Droid_Evo_8:
Mine is worst. It's stuck on the thunderbolt wallpaper. I already removed the P05IMG and still stuck. I wiped dalvik cache and all that and still stuck. :(
[Thunderbolt General] satseaker:
did you do a factory reset and reflash the rom agaim

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rulyskull:
:( im pretty sure anyway what happened was i went to gingerbread and i flash steal blue and touchwiz launcher 4 and i didn't like the new launcher so i flashed the rom again and it would just go to the end of the boot then vibrate twice and it would reboot over and over and then i tried to Odin the gingerbread again and the same boot thing happened. so then i tried the stock Odin of froyo and it would be fine then when it should push the files it would turn blue, then red(tried twice) and it would freeze on the pc so then when i pulled the battery again and after reading this was ok i tried to go to download mode again and instead i got nothing, ok so i tried clockwork nothing, so then i tried regular boot nothing, o now i have it plugged in in case the battery is low but there no red light and every now and then i try to boot or download mode and nothing so i think its bricked, i just got this off Craigslist traded for hero and i had the replacement thing were its ten bucks a month and was wondering does that work for this phone to?

Edit: it is on a different charger and is getting warm

if you go to the general thread there is a few different things u can try. can you give more info. like when you odin'ed like if you had f reset checked. what tar file ? if you put it in pda or phone.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarcher1971:
try pluging it into your pc with the battery out. leave it out for a while and then try booting to dl mode. this has worked for some. no guarantees though. if it doesn't work, you might have a true brick. do you have sprint's TEP? and did you transfer that to this phone when you had them activate it?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J31Rob:
Same thing happening on my end. I can ONLY get into Download Mode. No red light when charging, no CWM, no regular boot, no "phone to computer" symbol pops up.. nothing. :mad:

The phone should now be displaying a Yellow Triangle with Downloading... (see next post for image of download mode)

Plug the phone into Computer

Under ID:COM, the box should turn yellow and contain the com port. If it doesn't see Troubleshooting at the end.

He said NO Download mode.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] running_the_dream:
Depending on your battery level before these problems started, I wouldn't worry too much just yet. If you have a stand alone battery charger, then charge the battery and try to boot into download mode after the battery is full. Or if you have a charged spare battery, try to get into dl mode with that. I would not think it's truly bricked at this point because you were getting boot loops before it finally stopped working, which tells me that it's not dead.

ITS IN DOWNLOAD MODE!!!!!! i left my pc on while in school and had it in with the batt out (plugged in) and when i got home i tried didnt work then i poped the battery in didn't work so i thought lets un plug it then put batt in so i took it out un plugged it put bat in and tried and BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[XPERIA X10 General] zmbutt:
The video here tells you what exactly Smart AR can bring on the table. Whenever one happens to use their smartphone's camera to click pictures, this will pull up extra information on the device's screen like anything from virtual objects to images and texts which are otherwise not visible. It makes use of markerless approach where it dispenses with the need of any dedicated requisites for special markers which also includes 2D barcodes. So you'll have all the information displayed over the 3D space in front of you. All that you can see can also be navigated by touching the AR information on the device's screen

Click here to see the video

Looks awesome, but i would like to see how it goes in real life situations
[XPERIA X10 General] Hzu:
This would be awesome if it can be ported to X10. Hope its not hardware dependent.
[XPERIA X10 General] melody8801:
something like that is allways hardware depended.

And i dont't think that a 1ghz cpu and a bit of gpu is powerful enough to calculate a waterfall in realtime, for me not possible. (that can my PC-gpu with a power use of more than 80Watt!!
[XPERIA X10 General] rtblittlebrown:
It probably will be easy to get on our phones. There are already normal simple AR apps that work and it probably comes down to the devices CPU and camera
[XPERIA X10 General] zmbutt:
I guess, it will work just like 2D barcoder ! :cool:

the code would be embedded on the product and by using your cell phone cam, and Sony SmartAR App you'll able to decode it.
[XPERIA X10 General] mahgiaz47:
Kya bath a bhai saab
[XPERIA X10 General] thunderbox666:
Wouldnt that mean something would have to be added into the product design by the product manufacturer so it has something to decode?

If so, that means us down here (Australia) probably wont have a use for it for another 15 years :(

Would be awesome to play with, even if no practical uses
[XPERIA X10 General] zmbutt:
Notice the video, in which they create a virtual person and virtual environment, I guess, it has nothing to do with "embedded code" on the product side ...

embedded code was my assumption, not necessary to be correct.
[XPERIA X10 General] thunderbox666:
True.... either way looks dam cool...

Cant wait for a port!

Hey all,

Seeing that Sense 3.0 got ported to the Incredible got me thinking... what happened to the Sense port for Galaxy S?

(I'm not a dev, just wondering/spiking community interest) :cool:
[Captivate General] trell959:
Not going to happen. Or at least I doubt it. It would be cool. I'm running it on my inspire and would love it on my captivate
[Captivate General] Shammyh:
Why would you want to?

IMHO, it goes like this:

CyanogenMod > Stock Android > TouchWiz > Sense > Moto/Sony/Etc

I'm not counting launchers here, because that's such a simple thing to change, but as far as all the other customizations go, that's how I see it.

CM7 is already being worked on quite fervently, and new Samsung versions keep rolling out, why spend all the time and effort to get one specific version working?

[EVO 4G General] gotshores:
Hey guys, with the upcoming 3D coming out, I thought some of you may find this interesting. Amazon has an electronics trade in program where they will pay up to $187 for a white evo and $114.50 for a black evo. They won't pay actual cash, but will give you amazon credit (which if they sell the evo 3D, then who cares). I know you can probably sell it for more thru ebay, craigslist, etc, but for those who just want to get it done with, here's an option.

Here's a link to the evo page on amazon:

Seems the Sprint buy back for $150 is a better deal
[EVO 4G General] FishTaco:
Is there a catch? Like you have to buy another Sprint phone? Or can I just bring the Evo in, drop it off and walk out with $150?

I'm looking to switch to AT&T and this would cover my ETF with some cash left over.
[EVO 4G General] spencer88:
OMG why the hell would you do that?
[EVO 4G General] lopies:
Yeah no kidding. There service is terrible.
[EVO 4G General] FishTaco:
Now I am leaning towards the S II and it appears AT&T will have it but not so sure about Sprint. Plus on my Evo 4G, Wimax is great when I can get a decent signal, but keeping the connection has been a problem (e.g. in car or more than a few feet away from a window).

I had AT&T previously and never had any significant service issues. But I have no idea what type of HSPA+ speeds I'll get or if the connection holds any better than Wimax.

I will probably just wait until after the 3D and S II are both launched and see the reviews on performance.
[EVO 4G General] swanysto:
Yes, you only get the $150 if you are upgrading. I tried to sell my phone to them, and they said I must be upgrading to a new phone.
[EVO 4G General] KB112:
I thought it was already leaked that Sprint is gonna get it? It's supposed ot be called the Within.

On another note, I just checked the Amazon Trade In program on the 19th and the black EVO was valued at $209. It freaking dropped in price like a mofo. I guess it was a mistake or alot of peeps started trading them in already getting ready for the 3D.
[EVO 4G General] tonyh703:
when the evo dropped last year, Best Buy was selling the hero for $29 (the phone I had just paid over $150 for with an upgrade). talk about being sh**ted on (got hero in January, got Evo the day it released)

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerisgood:
Hey,

I'm new to Android, and still pretty bad with it, so when I set out to flash a custom rom last week, I never bothered to setup a backup. I didn't think it was going to be as complicated to get back to the way it was when I took it out of the box. I guess I'm still use to the iPhone. Now, I'm not completely happy with my phone and am looking to go back to stock.

I've looked in to it, and it seems easy enough, but I just have a couple of questions:

Pre-CM7 I'm pretty sure my phone was GRI54, and i9020, It's now GRI40. Does this make any difference?

And, finally, where can I download an official version of this?

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks.

Is it possible to get rid of clockwork?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matridom:
yes, the default for all stock 2.3.4 roms will restore the recover back to stock on each reboots you have to rename/delete the install-recover.sh script to prevent it from happening
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerisgood:
Sorry? I have to delete the files to keep clockwork from being removed?

All I did was flash it, restart, and clockwork was still there.

Also, my phone's internet speeds seem really slow now. Could this be from now having a different build? (GRI54 -> GRJ22)

Sorry for my complete lack of knowledge. It's quite obvious I jumped into something that's much over my head.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matridom:
A stock rom has the script. So flashing it will also restore stock recovery. If the rom you installed does not restore the recovery partition, the the rom was not completely stock.

Sent from my Nexus S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylerisgood:
I used the rom you linked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matridom:
I've never used it myself.

Looking over the zip file, the script has been renamed, so it's not 100% stock.

Normally you would need to root the phone to change the file name.

Perhaps renaming the file in the zip will correct the issue?

try renaming /etc/install-recovery.sh.bak to /etc/install-recovery.sh and re-apply the zip. ( no need to wipe )

That rom was posted by dsixda, he may be able to confirm what needs to be done.

If you had root, it would be fairly easy to rename it.
