i Flash cyanogen need help going back to stock

going in the download mod doesn't seem to work (vol down + power) if i keep them press, it send me into a boot loop and when i let go it boots back to cyanogen

Take out battery, sim, and SD card. Plug usb cord into pc and phone. Hold down vol up and down. While holding those two down put battery in.

can i flash a 2.2 ROM from this current ROM using rommanager or will that be incompatible

cause i cant seem to go into download mod anymore since i install cyanogen
[Vibrant General] bfranklin1986:
nope, the only other thing you can do is download sgs kernel flasher from the market and flash a 2.2 kernel (bali, overstock, etc). This will throw you into a boot loop so you will have to use the 3 button combo (vol up + vol down + power button) to get into recovery mode and flash a 2.2 rom (make sure you have it on your internal sd card before you flash the kernel)
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
That's because in you original post, You're only using one volume button. You need to use both the volume UP and volume DOWN buttons. And, when you get to El mode, make sire you flash JFD and *only* jfd

Hello, I'm having a bit of an issue with the downgrade process. I'm following the instructions in this thread and after I've typed

I've been stuck on the following screen for 10-15 minutes -

Any ideas on how I proceed? Is this normal? The same question is asked in the thread I linked, but it doesn't seem to be answered in any great detail. My current firmware is 2.36.405.8.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Presidente81:

Am I safe to disconnect my phone at the moment?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
gold card is for branded devices,,,, if your phone is branded u need a gold card

also... u obtained temporary root? or stuck before obtain it? (temporary root its represented by a # symbol)

I'm not branded as I'm running the 2.36.405.8 firmware.

there are branded phones with this firmware also... (2.xxx WEE OFICIAL RUU)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Presidente81:
I don't believe I have temporary root as I never received the "#" sign.

The attached is what I was presented with before entering the "./data/local/tmp/GingerBreak" command. It didn't work the first time I tried (as you can see), so I waited a few minutes then tried again. That is when I was presented with the screenshot from my first post.

So you think despite the firmware I'm running and the fact I've had 2 OTA updates (1.32.405.6 -> 1.72.405.3 & 1.72.405.3 -> 2.36.405.8), I could actually be branded?

Also, given it doesn't appear to be doing anything at the moment, am I ok to disconnect?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
yes mate u can disconect without problems,,, u don´t did anything important in your device after all....

yes your device can be branded.... the updates have nothing to do...

if u have a sim free phone your handset is unbranded.

ok lets go with the trouble...

u checked if the downgrade file was downloaded correctly? try to download again the file.. maybe something went badly....

and u putted it into adb folder?

i deduce that u was entered correctly the codes:

adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb push GingerBreak /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/GingerBreak
adb shell
./data/local/tmp/GingerBreak
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Presidente81:
Thanks.

I'll try with my GF's SIM card in, if that works, then I'll know for sure if I'm unbranded.

The MD5 of the PD98IMG.zip file checks out ok so I presume that's good. I don't know what the MD5 of the Downgrade_v2.zip file is so I can't confirm if that's downloaded correctly.

I appear to have followed the process to the letter, dropped the PD98IMG.zip onto the root of the SD Card, extracted the Downgrade_v2.zip to a folder on C:\ then navigated to that directory via the command prompt.

Does it look like I've done anything incorrectly from my screenshots? What about the first message I received when I entered "adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp", does that mean anything?

Really appreciate the help btw, thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
Hi, just had a read through the whole post.

And the reason your not getting # in adb shell is simply your not entering the command properly.

I will highlight your error

adb push GingerBreak /data/local/tmp
...
adb shell
./data/local/tmp/Ginger[COLOR="Red"][B]b[/B][/COLOR]reak

Notice you pushed GingerBreak, yet you try to execute Ginger

b

reak

In linux computing, file names that contain uppercase are completely different from file names that contain lower case.

FileExample.jpg is not the same as fileexample.jpg

Simply change the b to B in,

./data/local/tmp/Gingerbreak

to

./data/local/tmp/GingerBreak

Your first sceenshot can be indicative of a couple of issues. It seems linked to the Indian 2.37 firmware's inability to be rooted, hence the freeze at,

vold: 1226 GOT start: 0x00014360 GOT end: 0x000143a0

Have you tried a factory reset then trying again?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Presidente81:
I'll try again, double checking all code is correct, if that fails, then I'll try a factory reset, then trying again.

[Vega General] geekyhawkes:
Hey guys, so its great i can get access to my usb sticks on the vega so long as i remember to power up with the back button pressed, but i was juswt wondering if there is a way to get the vega into usb host mode if for whatever reason the device was started without back being pressed?

If not, is there a way to make the default start up selection be inusb host mode?

Thanks
[Vega General] dmarchant:
USB Mode needs specific settings in the kernel at boot time. I think Corvus was suggesting an option on one of his ROM's to have host as the default. Otherwise, I believe the POV 1.10 defaults to host.
[Vega General] geekyhawkes:
Thanks for the reply, it would be great if the devs could offer roms with and without usb host mode as default, at least until i can get my head around the android kernel so can offer it up as options.

Thanks

Hi

yesterday I've received my HTC Sensation.

On PDAShop.be thy said that the phone was Vodafone branded en will show a Vodafone logo on startup. butt there is nothing there from Vodafone not even the standard homepage from Vodafone:D

So now i'm not sure if my phone is even branded?:confused:

But no sign of Vodafone? So my phone is a non-Branded one right?:D

software version with x.xx.401.x means it is generic firmware, NOT branded.

when you have x.xx.161.x it is vodafone branded.

Thats the version number. If your full software version is 1.27.161.1, its the same as mine, the vodafone branded version.

Vodafone are lagging behind the unbranded software, which is already on version 1.28

vf must be dump if they didnt forced htc to let resellers sign some contract or so not to deliver free sensations before the ending of the 4 week period.

[Milestone XT720 General] the_coolguru:
I guess this is my specific problem as I didn't found any query regarding this.

I have recently purchased Sandisk 32GB MicroSDHC class 4. I have installed fresh SteelEpicBlue V4 ROM and everything i did regarding ext3 swap etc. But now when i try to copy my old data, images, movie clips, movies it does copy but it gets corrupted. If lets say i copy 20 images at a time 4-5 opens and are accessable left all gets corrupt.

I checked with few testings that till data card in not pushed back to phone and if i try to access data on card to various PC ( I have 5 different pc tp check ) it works and lets me copy information safely but as i put it back to phone it creates thumbnails and most of the files get corrupted.

I have fat32 format file system in the card.

Please help me with 3 question if anyone may:

1) Is it that i have got compatable SDcard - mine is Sandisk Class 4 32GB ?

2) Is it that we can make sum partition to help easy access & will it help?

3) Is there anything we can do to keep files in the SD card safe protecting it from corruption?

Please help me in this.

Thanks in advance.

I use a 32gb card and it works fine. Most of the glitches have been self-inflicted. I had a Topram 16gb class 6 for a long time and used it on Nokia 5800 and then in xt720. I am a music hound so I upgraded to Topram 32gb class 10, although it runs more like a class 6. Capacity on the card is almost the full 32gb, so I was happy about that. Got both 16 and 32 from eBay, but made sure I got from same purveyor.

And always remember, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaevy:
I have a few questions about this phone. All the Kernel/CSC stuff is kindof confusing for me coming from wm6.5.

1) If I want to have root access, I have to flash a insecure kernel etc. I understand that so far. To revert back to the state without root I just need to reflash the original kernel as far as I understood.

So my questions is do different regions (ATO, AUT, XEU etc.) have different kernels, or are those kernels the same everywhere?

If yes, where do I find a kernel for ATO (Austria), or is there a (easy) way to extract/backup the kernel?

2) In the wm6.5 world we had something called ROM which containt almost everything. I just read that there are also ROMs for SGS2. If flashed do ROMs update PDA, CSC and PHONE all at once? Where to find that for ATO?

Is the kernel part of a rom?

3) Does flashing a kernel change the CSC in any way?

In general I would like to stay on the stock way for updating etc. but I would also like to gain root access.

Something that's also very important for me is the possibility to get back to a stock phone(no root). (I have some dead pixel issue and I'd like to exchange my phone as soon at my carrier has newones in stock)

I am sorry if something similar has already been asked. If so, I simply didnt find it, sorry.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crucio_:
Hey im still quite new to evreything myself but i thought id have a go at answering your question ;)

1. The different regions dont have different kernals but the different firmwares do, so firmwear XWKE1 has a different kernal to XWKE2 but they share the same CSC XEUKD1.

2. The kernal can be part of the ROM and these are packaged as .tar files which will contain everything that is needed to flash all elements of the phone including kernal and csc. the stock .tars will have secure kernals in them that is why people have made inscure kernals so we can use just the kernal in ODIN root then flash back to the secure kernal to keep the root and have a secure kernal.

A for finding an ATO one i couldnt spot a CSC for austria but your ROM/Kernal can be found over in Intratech's thread in the dev section here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

3. Flashing the kernal doesnt effect the csc that i can tell, but flashing a custom ROM such as villanROM did, i had to flash the csc for my country to get it to show again

tbh Intratechs thread would be a good read for you as it tells you how to root as well as having a good collection of the stock roms and csc.

hope that was some help, hope people correct me if i am wrong :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaevy:
Thank you for your answers.

Another question:

firmware == ROM == CSC + PHONE + PDA?

I am sure there has to be a way to extract/backup the as is state of my phone. If not, where do all the files come from?

Why arent there any ATO's anyway?

This is the state Ihave right now:

Firmware info

PDA:I9100XWKE2

PHONE: I9100XXKDJ

CSC: I9100ATOKD1

Build date: 06/05/2011

My fear is: Since there are no ATO CSC so download, will I be able to revert back to stock after I messed something up.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crucio_:
yeah a ROM is CSC + PHONE + PDA

I think there is a way to do this via ODIN but i havent done this myself.

i guess you just need to find the CSC for your phone and you will be good to go. Im sure there is someone on here that can help you find it :)

EDIT:

over at http://www.samfirmware.com/ there is a link to download:

I9100XXKE2

MULTI - CSC - ATOKD1

maybe give that a look. i think that will probably come as a stock ROM so flashing that would take you back to how your phone was if it just came out the box, ie. no root.

that being said too root you have to flash an insucre kernal which would add to the internal custom binary flash counter, more info here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1068522

so if you are planning on returning this phone due to its dead plixal then i would maybe hold off the rooting :)

Currently the calendar, Sunday is the first day of the week, and I can't change it. Monday is my first day of the week!

The keyboard is setup for USA use of course, and so is the dictionary.

My ideal situation would be to grab a "global" or "UK" unbranded firmware image and flash that like I used to with my Nokia N900, but this is not possible yet.
