The e: thing means nothing, it is a old CM7 thing. At exactly what point are you getting stuck booting into recovery?

Is this your first time flashing CM7/MIUI?

Nope, I was previously running CM7.1. I said **** it and installed 7.1 from CWM2 and it worked perfectly. IMEI is correct and everything.

It seemed to **** up when ODINing the initial kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
Glad it worked out for you anyway, may have been a bad download. Those are the exact files I use to do it... and I am on CM7.1 using this method after losing my IMEI trying to go from clockwork 2...

Was it when you tried to boot into clockwork 3 for the first time, or after you wiped and flashed the initial rom?

Completely clueless, but that is why I put this up, so after I had a definite way to fix mine, others could fix theirs. The problem itself seems to be more with MIUI than CM7, but it is happening with both. I would not be surprised if it happened to more people who have simply not checked their IMEI, and are working off a generic one because they have service.
[Vibrant Android Development] seedofchaos:
Curious what happens if the imei is in the wrong hands and stolen

My external sd card is not recognized after successfully booting MIUI. This has been bother me for days now... I see sd card icon in the status bar and it says "sd card safe to remove" I tried mounting/unmounting/formating - I only see the main partition when i plug usb cable to windows. EMMC folder is empty as well.

Does anyone else experience this?!
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
what i dont understand is Rom manager premium made it so easy a baby could install it! download rom off rom manager premium CM7 nightlies make sure u flash clockwork recovery vibrant mtd and 3x and not 2x! install download and wait......way too easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Make sure u wipe data, wipe dalvik and backup rom when it asks its pretty simple.
[Vibrant Android Development] brujoand:
I've got a better way, install Rom manager, select rom, click flash. TADA!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
I know grim its as easy 123
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
If you try to change to MIUI from CM7.1 you will lose it, partially because of the new modem partitioning that creates a difference between the two. As previously stated, the problem is more with MIUI than CM7, but some people have it happen with CM7.

For the millionth time (it feels like) this process is overkill, but will work every time with retaining Baseband/IMEI.

Does anyone read anymore?:confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
MIUI is not on ROM manager
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Um......yeah miui is in rom manager
[Vibrant Android Development] darksonic:
Well I'd ODIN the kernel, boot in to CWM3, do the steps there and then reboot, only to see the Vibrant and CM Kanged screen and then instantly be right back in CWM. Really odd.

What's really odd is that after getting my IMEI back, my reception has improved within my house. After I flashed CM7 I usually only got full EDGE in my house, which was poor because I almost always have a few bars of 3G before. Now I'm back to what I was getting before.

Yeah I didn't know untill yesterday....I think its a chineese rom.

To the guy who flashed the kernel and got the kang screen.....flash the rom!
[Vibrant Android Development] phear86:
TO ALL WITH ISSUES!!

I have been working on several issues for days now with MIUI and my phone. BUT first I want to thank nickmcminn60 for the awesome modified MIUI rom, and angryattheworld for the awesome tutorial!!!.

Anyways, I have had some issues, but not because of the fault of either of the two mentioned above.

The first issue was properly flashing MIUI with the instructions in this post. I had a similar issue as darksonic. When I got to the step to flash cm7, then reboot, it was supposed to boot into cm7, instead it booted right back into CWM. I followed the instructions to a T (believe me, I'm a perfectionist in everything I do!). Then I fixed it!! It seems when I followed a simliar set of instructions before trying these instructions, I used Rom Manager to boot into CWM from the rom, then flashed something from there. From what I have been able to figure out, using my computer knowledge and geeky powers ;-), is that Rom Manager places a type of boot flag in the BOOT partition when you select this option. And if you wipe and flash something after the fact, it seems to get stuck in the BOOT partition.

Now for the fix!!

-First I formatted the BOOT partition using CWM

-Then in step 3, when you first flash to JFD, in ODIN, you want to make sure you have checked "Re-Partition", "Auto Reboot", "F. Reset Time", AND "Phone Boot Update".

-Then continue as normal

I also want to point out that after successfully flashing MIUI using this method, it has fixed several issues I had when I flashed MIUI from CM7, i.e. "SD Card Safe To Remove" bug. Happy Flashing!

I hate that it thinks I am a "Junior Member". I have contributed a lot back in my HTC Wizard days :-( I guess they reset my account at some point. It has been several years since I have posted anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
Glad you fixed your phone, thanks for pointing out again that people who have that problem are not following instructions.

I have one issue... did you say to check the phone bootloader update?

I do not condone this under any circumstances. Messing with the bootloader can very quickly lead you to a permanently bricked phone. I do not condone the use of any method to do anything at all with your phone that even uses the word bootloader.

Just looking for clarification, and providing my 2 cents.

I did. And I definitely understand what you mean. Anyone that does so, but makes a mistake, is in real trouble! It is definitely not for the faint of heart, however, in some cases, such as mine, it was necessary. But as they say, try at your own risk! And make sure you actually know what you are doing before attempting! As he pointed out it is serious business, and can cause unrepairable damage!
[Vibrant Android Development] CTown:
OK, I am also one of those people who have no baseband when using CM7.1 nightlies. Since, these directions are kind of similar to the orginal CM7 instructions I already had the ffs backup and CM2 update.zip. Using your guide, I went back to stock. I then used Heimdall to apply the intiail kernel and rebooted to CM3. I flashed the initial CM7 package and I had an IMEI and baseband, thanks a lot for that! But when I flashed nightly 15, I lost both again...

edit: Tried going from JFD->CM7-02242011->Nightly 8->Nightly 15, issue is still there. I'll just skip a few more nightlies.
[Vibrant Android Development] Ultima94:
i have the same problem ive gone through the instructions stated in the op 3 times redownloading the files each time i have the baseband and IMEI all the way up to the initial cm7 install but when i try to install the 15 or 16 nightly i loose both
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:

[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
Hey Scrizz, you're the man. I ate a BLT for lunch today...

On a side note, the modem will get them signal, but does not do anything to get their IMEI back does it?

These instructions worked with up to and including nightly 13 for me to retain baseband and actual phone IMEI. I have not tried any later versions as I am taking a break from gb for awhile...

D: i still cant seem to get baseband or imei on any of the builds past 8 for some reason sorry for spamming the thread with my problem haha i tried ops process 3-4 times and flashing a cm 7.1 modem but cant get anything to work :( latest build i used before trying to flash the 16 and 17 builds was 8 if that makes any difference. anything else i could try?
[Vibrant Android Development] o0stryxs0o:
Make sure you are flashing a CM7 modem not a 7.1. I followed ever step here to a T. It never worked for me, but I flashed a CM7 KA5 modem and I got baseband and IMEI back just like Scrizz said.

Vibrant now in MIUI
[Vibrant Android Development] CTown:
That actually helped, thank you!

Thanks for the idea. I flashed the CM7 (not 7.1) KA7 modem but I noticed all that did was deleted the modem.bin from /radio. So, I then pushed the KA7 modem.bin to /radio and I now have baseband and an IMEI. That is strange as I have already tried using adb to delete /radio/modem.bin and pushing a new one.
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
Make sure to check to see that the IMEI is actually your IMEI, not a general or random one. Found under your battery on the sticker.

Sent from my MIUI powered Vibrant using the XDA app
[Vibrant Android Development] CTown:
It is my IMEI

The IMEI I get back using his suggestion (flashing a CM7 and not a CM7.1 modem) and then pushing modem.bin gives the same exact IMEI as the one on the white sticker beneath my battery!

edit: Just noticed that rebooting my phone brings the baseband/IMEI issue back. I have to reboot to recovery and flash a CM7 modem then push (thankfully a simple copy and paste works, so I don't need a computer) modem.bin to /radio again.

i did everything you wrote, but my phone still crush.

if i am in "airplane mode" i can see my baseband and imei...

but i don't have phone service...

what can i do?

p.s. when i did the first step and flashed the AIO files, i didn't have phone service as well, only then i installed the cm7-vibrant-initial-20110224.zip i have phone service and the #8.

what can i do?

Just finished waiting the 15 minutes, and everything looks good so far. Thanks for the awesome tutorial.

I did have an issue getting CM 2.5.x installed. It would not prompt me for the Samsung phone type like it normally does, and thusly would not boot into CM recovery.After several reboots and un-install, and then installing the Paid version of ROM Manager, it began behaving as I expected, and Recovery installed and booted correctly.

BASEBAND is fine but my IMEI number has changed

I'm not sure i have a problem or not. I'm able to make calls fine and am connected to the network but my IMEI number has changed. Do I have to start all over again? Not sure what I could have done wrong unless I got wipe crazy?

Will the cause problems with apps I have purchased?

Thanks for this great tutorial! Sorry to bug you guys.
[Vibrant Android Development] golfslicer:
FYI: Just Flashed a vibrant for someone else, as I use a captivate. I didn't save the imei and flashed cm7 and it totally borked the imei. So I used AIO Toolbox and flashed back to stock. It worked and I got the original IMEI back. I then rooted the phone with AIO toolbox. I installed root explorer and copied the efs folder the the root to the internal sd card and also copied it to the computer for backup. I copied the new rom to the internal sd, I downloaded a tar version of a new kernel and flashed it via odin in download mode then booted to recovery, flashed the new rom and the imei this time was generic, no biggie since I backed up the new original efs folder this time. I used root explorer and deleted everything in the efs folder in the root directory of the phone and copied nv_data.bin from the backup to this efs folder that I deleted all the files in. I rebooted and have original IMEI back. Moral of the story, always back up efs folder on the root of the rom before flashing a new rom, just in case it gets overwriitten so you can copy it back. Everybody seems to have written this out of their roms on the captivate, since this used to happen on a captivate, but doesn't seem to any more.

The Battery life span is not 6 hours, it\'s over 14 hours with Wi-Fi and 2G (not 3G) connection!!!! AMAZING. I LIKE IT. i over clocked the processor to 1 Ghz and it\'s still amazing. no glitches, no freezing, nothing wrong.. the battery life went down to 9 hours. STILL AMAZING.. TenQ, Thank you ;)

Is there a custom room for this unit, that makes it possible to overclock?

Or can I just root it and then overclock it? I have been searchering everywhere to fin something usefull.

[HD7 General] Sprintguy1376:
In all honesty, I like Windows Phone 7 a lot more than Android, and I do plan to switch once Mango is released. I was waiting for multi-tasking and its going to deliver. WebOS style nonetheless.

On the subject of apps, I actually think most of Android's apps are pretty useless myself. Aside from a lot of the great root apps, like SetCPU and BatteryMod, even voltage control, the apps are very... meh... at best. We have the basics, like facebook, and twitter, a bunch of IM clients, and obviously shazam and pandora, you get where I'm going.

But other than the top 25 or 50 apps on android, the rest are HORRID. I'm sure part of the reason is people barely buy paid apps, and another part is lack of app review (which is fine by me) but android apps aren't that great.

Also, Windows Phone 7 is still really young, and its off to a way better start than Android was... Both in terms of apps and OS. The UI is great, and the integration with Zune is solid. I actually still carry around a ZuneHD cause no music player on android comes close.

And yeah, obviously like 450 of those 500 features are something completely stupid. Like a afterglow, or something like that. But I really like where this OS is going and the way its competing with Android and Apple after only 7 or 8 months.

Its almost a love child of iOS and Android. A bunch of form factors, but one unified OS for easy and fast updates.

Sorry for the length.. and don't get the wrong idea, I don't hate android. I just think its really overrated for what it actually is. That, and if it wasn't for xda and its developers, this phone would be long gone.
[HD7 General] af974:
Your debate is out of place here, as i already said you in the other thread, HD7 WP7 development is meant only for that purpose.Help, Questions and whatever must goes to General forum.
[HD7 General] Audio:
I don't really think you have got the point of what WP7 is aiming to achieve.

What Microsoft are saying is that you shouldn't need an App to do stuff. It should be built right into the OS, and that is certainly what Mango is all about. Obviously, there is a lot of stuff that they can't and won't put into the OS, which is where the Apps come in, but they want an intuitive and seamless experience for the user so they don't have to launch 3 or 4 different apps just to tag a photo or find the price of a book.

You keep blasting off this "80% of apps in marketplace are useless". Really? Have you been through all 20,000 apps yourself? Don't get me wrong, a LOT of the apps are repetitive, duplicates, or just a general wast of time, but just because most of the apps don't suit you, doesn't mean nobody else wants them either.

And regarding the Marketplace growth post-Mango, i think this is where the really interesting stuff is going to kick in. If the Apps can interact with the OS as fantastically as MS displayed with their IMDB apps and Kindle Apps, then that puts something else truly unique into WP7's bucket of skills.

This isn't really a debate, it's more of a vent by someone who seems misguided (no offence).
[HD7 General] 98bishopmal:
I know what you mean market place is rubbish I have read that mango is going to change the market place alot, more people will be making Apps but I believe they are limited at the moment due to limitations on wp7
