[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
Need help!

I am rooted running BAMF 1.6.3. I haven't updated this in at least 2 weeks.

Something very random just happened. I noticed my phone was on 1x (I live in 4G area) so I decided to reboot it to see if that fixed it. When I rebooted it, it loaded up and came back to lock screen. I then hit the power button to turn off the screen. When I tried to wake it back up nothing would happen. I then pulled the battery and when it started back up it hangs on the white HTC screen. It will stay on there for about 1 minute and then the screen will turn off. 3 seconds later, the screen will turn back on with the same white HTC screen. It appears this loop will happen over and over. I pulled battery again and same thing. I tried to hold the power button and volumn down and then go to recovery. There I get error messages stating:

E; cant mount /cache/recovery/command

... cache/recovery/log

etc.

when i go to restore, I get the same messages. The phone then goes back to the white HTC screen and loops over and over.

I haven't tried factory reset yet.

Any ideas? This is random that this happened during daily use and not while flashing or mucking with it.

Please help!

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
so you are able to go into recovery then to restore.. correct? Are you running the MR2 Radio?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
No, running the suggested radio for BAMF 1.6.3 which I think was the leaked froyo radio...and I haven't messed with this in over 2 weeks and have been fine since I last flashed. adrynalyne talkes about it in his first post here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1057933
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
...and yes, I can get into recovery and restore, but can't get past the can't mount errors I see in recovery.

I am not sure if the radio suggested for BAMF 1.6.3 is the MR2 radio of if that is something else?

Download the full downgrade rename itand flash then see ifthat helps ?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dnakaman:
Maybe a voltage issue. Is your battery all charged up?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
Download the MR2 radio from here

http://www.multiupload.com/3U3QC9V1UL

Rename it to PG05IMG.ZIP.

Next go into your recovery.. mounts.. and mount usb storage.

Plop that zip file into the root of SD card..

Then do a battery pull and go into bootloader (power + vol down).. (or if you are on adb.. do adb reboot bootloader).

Install the MR2 radio after the prompt and then reboot your device..

see if that fixes it.. if not.. report back.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
Ok, I will have to try all of this when I get home from work. I don't have the drivers or ADB installed on my work computer. I just went to mounts/mount SD storage and got this error:e: unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory).

Is this b/c I am not connected to the computer with the drivers installed or a different issue?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohkg:
Ah tryunplugging it or go to a different port or reinstapl drivers
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
I have been doing some research on the MR2 radio and through my quick research, I have seen people saying not to install it if you are running on Froyo not to install it, but only if you are running a GB ROM. Is this safe for me to try?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
MR2 radio actually comes with a Froyo RUU.. I don't know who is telling you not to have MR2 radio over Froyo.. because they are wrong. The RUU does have an updated software version (1.66 I believe).. instead of the 1.37 that you have.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
Maybe I am reading this wrong then. I see you have posted in the xda thread below, so i assume I am just not reading this correctly (I am relatively new to all of this!). Thanks for the help so far.

As far as I know MR2 only works with GB Roms, I don't believe it will work with Bamf 1.6.3

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
It does work on Froyo.. but only on Froyo 1.66 .. and NOT on the earlier version of Froyo.. which was 1.13

the reason why Chingy and Droid Life said it won't work on Froyo was because at that time.. only this radio was released.. and not the full RUU... and so they didn't want people flashing this radio over the older Froyo.

the RUU was released a few days later.. and it was the MR2 radio with Froyo.

However, I stand corrected... since you are the earlier version of Froyo.. MR2 radio WILL NOT work for you.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
At this point, I will try anything to get the phone working again. The phone right now will not even turn on. I am hoping that it is due to the battery being drained down and charging it as I type...but not sure.

I think my major issue now is I can't seem to get anything onto the SD card due to the error posted before. Any ideas on this or other suggestions?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
Try the following..

1. remove your SD card from your phone and use another phone or some kind of an adapter to connect it to your PC

2. Download the MR1 PG05IMG.zip.. (full RUU and not just the ROM).. and put it in your SD Card -

3. Rename the file to PG05IMG.zip & then go into bootloader and let it install.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mschwartz26:
Update...so now my phone will not even turn on. I have charged it for over 2 hours now and nothing.

I have even tried a friends battery and nothing.

Is it time to call Verizon?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
not powering up at all even into bootloader??.. if so.. then yea.. time to call verizon...

but obviously don't tell them you were rooted and running a custom rom :P

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kriskmk:
To the OP.

Just had my HTC white screen of death. I was running a custom GB rom with the MR2.5 Radio.

I was able to go into recovery and restore back a froyo backup. I think I'm gonna stick with Froyo until GB is officially released.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I have the same problem.

mschwartz26, I also have the same problem. Can you explain the solution if you found any?

I have boot looping after white HTC screen. Even in the recovery, I get force reboot after few seconds. I can only get hboot/fastboot and I already returned MR1 (PG05IMG_MR1_upgrade), but I still has boot loop.

@adryanalyne, any idea for the fixing this? i got bootloop when I installed CM7 rc0.4 and im using PG05IMG_MR1_upgrade.zip (unrooted, soff)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I think I bricked the phone. Adr. said rebooting during the recovery may be the symptom of the permanent bricking.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I'm having the same problem.

I have a MR2 radio with bamf stripped. Everything worked great. I changed a setting & rebooted...and get nothing past the white HTC screen. I can boot up in recovery, but since the radio update is still on the sd card, it just keeps trying to install that.

Is this meaning I have bricked the phone?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nucher:
Is it booting into recovery or the bootloader? Recovery is the black screen that says "Clockwork Recovery". The bootloader is the whitescreen with the green robots. If your booting into recovery it shouldn't be trying to install anything automatically, so it sounds like your booting into the bootloader. If you don't have Clockwork Recovery installed I would suggest installing it. To install clockwork recovery download the attached file and rename it recovery.img Then you will need to install the android-sdk on your computer which you may have already done. Then place the recovery.img (attached) in the tools folder, which is located inside the android-sdk folder you just installed. Then open a command prompt from Start-->Programs--> accessories-->Command prompt (If using XP). Navigate to C:\android-sdk\tools\ then type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without the quotation marks. Android-sdk folder may be in C:\Program Files\android-sdk\ instead of c:\. This will install clockwork recovery onto your phone. Then boot into recovery and and mount your phone as a usb disk by choosing mounts and storage, then "mount USB storage". Now download Bamf stripped from XDA and put it on your phones SD card. unmount your phone in clockwork recovery and go back to install zip from sd card. Choose the bamf stripped you just copied over. After it is installed in recovery reboot the phone. You should now have a fresh install of bamf stripped. I'm not sure how much you know about your phone. If already know everything I just typed I apologize.

This is really weird, but try taking out the sd card if you haven't already. My gfs phone was doing this yesterday.. I was copying a file over then rebooted and it stuck at the htc screen. Took the memory card out and it worked just fine.. Put in a new card and no problems at all
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bigjosh89:
Ok.. I have a captivate with 2.2 kb1

Please dont just tell me to do research. Ive read 300 pages worth of posts in the last 24 hours and this is my conclusion

I have the 3e recovery and obviously cannot load CWM due to the verification process required amongst installing packages.

I want to flash Cognitions ROM and cannot find an easy way to do it that i feel confortable diving into just yet.

My phone is rooted and i used titanium to remove most of ATT crappware.

I basically am looking to see if my thoughts are correct on my next steps so i do not start my next post with "OMG Help"..

Will this work....

1. use ODIN (not one click) to flash to 2.1 JF6 (if my research proves beneficial that will give me the 2e recovery)

2. Root

3. Download CWM and rename as update.zip

4. Load custom ROM from CWM.

Will ROM manager be needed this process? If so why? I understand it.that RM is used to install CWM(which i later found out that doesnt work on KB1)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bigjosh89:
OK....

I used the one click to get back to JF6, flashed CWM then Cognition.

still had no 3 button due to the one click method. so i found the 3 button fix.zip and flashed it with cognitions built-in reboot to recovery all is good and im up and running, only took three days to find out what i wanted and how to do it.

whats the first things i should be doing in cog to take advantage of all the hard work i have managed to put myself through (even though im sure there was a much easier way

BTW DG, Cog is really good looking so far. The main reason i wanted a custom rom was to help save battery, any tips on how to do that now would be fantastic.

Thanks in advance for any advice

[Galaxy Tab Accessories] All4Sky:
I'm using a Samsung HM3500 bluetooth headset which also has a A2DP stereo option with my AT&T Galaxy Tab. Whenever I play music through the bluetooth, the music will pause for a split second while I am doing other things on the tab such as loading web pages, opening menus, going back to home, etc. It just seems to cut out when I am doing things that use a little bit of CPU power. When idle it mostly works, with only a few cut outs every few minutes or so.

I have flashed gingerbread and my modem to use it as a phone. Do you guys think this is an OS issue or an issue with my BT headset? Thanks
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] schmolch:
I use bluetooth headsets alot and i had this issue from overcome beta (first gingerbread release) to 2.0.0 gold. Didn't have it with froyo before and don't have it anymore since overcome 2.0.1.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] All4Sky:
Thanks, I may have to try flashing Overcome.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] Shane_pcs:
If you disable wifi the issue should go away. I know some people were able to decrease the frequency of the breaks in audio by changing the interval at which it searches for wifi locations, but I don't recall. This is a very common issue which has been seen on android and windows mobile devices alike.
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] All4Sky:
I don't think thats the issue I have. I only have wifi turned on when I'm at home and while at the office. During my morning/evening commute (train to subway to bus) is when I use my bluetooth headphones the most, and wifi is switched off. I never got to try it with Froyo because I flashed Gingerbread as soon as I got my Tab last weekend. I will try flashing overcome tonight, hopefully it solves the issues. Thanks

I saw the link on droid-life.com of the tear down of the tbolt. just wondering how easy it actually is to do. My screen somehow cracked (dunno how) and over a few days the crack spread and eventually went down the whole screen.

Wondering if anyone has bought one of those cheap 30-40 buck digitizers off of eBay and if they work/fit perfectly.

i'd rather pay 30-40 bucks and have the same rooted/rom'd phone then have to return the phone to stock, pay asurion 100 bucks, and then get a new phoen and do it all over again.

I know it voids the warranty but it might be worth it.

Putting it out there for thoughts...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirtyfingers:
I have replaced a digitizer on the og Droid successfully in the past, but the Thunderbolt looks to be somewhat different and possibly more difficult. If you do it properly it is better than paying for a replacement, but just be aware that you could render the phone useless if you mess up. It is your decision but personally I wouldn't want to mess up such an expensive device.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Franzie3:
yea think i may give it a shot. I've done laptop LCD's and such before. Its pretty much the same except 10x smaller (joking)

But yea there is a teardown video which seems to be very helpful so if anything its worth a shot. Worst case if it gets screwed up i have insurance so i can always say it got "stolen" and get a new one. still $100 bucks but i figured the risk is worth the reward if it works.

If anyone has tried it i figured its worth asking to see if its easy as it looks based on the video.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
I did this on my Incredible, wasn't hard at all. You will have to get a new housing also, because I believe it is glued to the digitizer and trying to get those 2 things apart is basically impossible, at least it was on the INC.

can anyone explain about the conservative governor and stagefright( both functions part of the kernel developed by he who must not be named;) ).. whats their exact use and advantage? cause i heard they boost quadrant scores above 3500..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
I assume the person who told you that was also trying to sell you his phone.

Stagefright is just the Android video framework, built right in. The Governor controls the way your CPU speeds up and slows down, and the Conservative settings is designed to improve battery life at the expense of performance.

Neither one will improve your quadrant score, in fact Conservative would likely lower it.

3500 quadrant? If you really want something that silly the only way to get a score like that that I know of is to open your galaxy up, install a Tegra 2 and hook the whole thing up to a car battery....of drop it off a bridge and clock its fall speed.
