[Desire Android Development] daddyspud:
no worrys dude take ya time no rush
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Ill try to fix it today, because upcoming 2 weeks I will go on vacation and havent got a laptop with me, so i can't work on it..

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] Pavelol:
nickislauw.

u should add those lins to the updater-script.

after the flashing commands of the hboot

format("MTD", "cache");

cuz Alpharev devs recommend doing it, just for your attention.

btw u don't need to mount cache cuz it's always mounted ;)
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Could someone PLEASE convert the cwm2XXX scripts to CWM3XXX script? since im not able to do it anymore, cause im very busy, if someone would be that kind, i could add them to the OP and give them credit:)

Thanks in advance!

The error on flash the CM7R2 Hboot "E: can't open/sdcard/Cm7r2Hboot.zip (bad)". Any idea please.
[Desire Android Development] RealyPssd:
Is it possible to get the "original" cm7 hboot? The one with 130MB system I think it was.

The InsertCoin ROM calls for that hboot not the r2 version.
[Desire Android Development] Rastaman-FB:

You're right, will fix it upcoming 2 weeks, now going on vacation:)

Newbie wanting to learn

I have no clear exactly to change the Hboot.

Can someone explain me what are the advantages of using one or another HBOOT.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Meaple:
Go to http://alpharev.nl. It will explain it for you.

This is a bad idea. Fastboot is the safest way to flash hboots and recoveries and things like that. If something goes wrong with a hboot, then say bye bye to your phone.
[Desire Android Development] RealyPssd:
When flashing in fastboot you need to connect your phone to your PC via usb right?

When "using the PB99IMG zipfile, put it on your sdcard, and rename it to PB99IMG.zip. Then start the phone in HBOOT mode (VolDown+POWER) to flash the HBOOT without a PC."

What are the steps exactly? You don't go into recovery do you?
[Desire Android Development] unikum:
Nope. Your phone will search for a file called PB99IMG.zip and flash it. Very easy, I succeed on the first try.
[Desire Android Development] RealyPssd:
Press Vol. Down + Power Button, with that file in the root folder of my SD card, and it flashes automatically?

I did that and in the Hboot screen it says "Model ID Incorrect!; Update Fail!"

Far as I know I've got an SLCD Pvt-3 Desire that is S-Off'd and rooted via. unrevoked3.

Just follow this guide? http://www.droid-den.com/android-guides/android-guide-how-to-create-a-gold-card

Right now my 16GB micro SD card has a 14GB~ FAT32 partition and a 1GB~ EXT 4 partition. Is that alright for making a gold card?

Is it fine to use my "active" SD card or should I use a spare one? Only have a spare 512mb one right now

someone tested =D ?
[Desire Android Development] mfknboss:
So my friend flashed cm7r2 and said install complete..reboot to finish..he did..said writing boot image screen went black and vibrated once..15mins later still screen off..is this normal?
[Desire Android Development] mercianary:
Screen off? Is the phone on?

Turn it on, it should go straight to recovery, then restore the backup you made.
[Desire Android Development] mfknboss:
The phone will not turn on...pulled batt..still nothing..get a single vibrate thats it..usb to pc u can hear the tone connection..phone will not turn on.
[Desire Android Development] mercianary:
Does anything at all come on the screen?

Try fastboot devices or adb devices from PC if you can.

Lets hope you didn't recommended this to your soon to be very angry friend, its not looking good.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Lol probably your rom wil not run on that partition size, thats why it hangs there.. go into fastboot, reboot your phone holding vol down. Then see if you got the cm7 hboot.

I tested it myself and just worked, it reboots twice to apply it, then i rebooted in fastboot and applied a new rom
[Desire Android Development] mfknboss:
It does not go into recovery or turn on at all!! Even after battery pull..i think when he initially flashed it..he waited a few mins and pulled the battery before it finished. So how can he fix this? And when he plugs his usb to his pc it makes sound tone but no popup on pc.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
veeeeeeery bad that he pulled out the battery :mad:

Well let him pull the batt back in, HOLD DOWN VOL DOWN, then press the power button, then he will come in bootloader, tell me if it does;)

//
[Desire Android Development] mfknboss:
It does not do anything but vibrate once..no bootloader..and doesnt turn on.
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Where do you live??
[Desire Android Development] mfknboss:
Illinois
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
sucks... well he could try (when the phone is off) the adb devices.. if it is listed, he can run an RUU
[Desire Android Development] mfknboss:
Sight ill have him try that. Thanks
[Desire Android Development] 3f1f37:
Nickislauw,

Awesome work dude, downloaded all the ones i would need cm7R2, downgrade, stock, booted into recovery via ROM manager, wiped all partitions, installed cm7R2 hboot, restored Reflex S 2.1.7 back up and booted back up in under 10 mins.

Very convenient and useful.
[Desire Android Development] ichi go:
Very nice idea !

Is it possible to have also the CM7 version (not the r2) ?

Thanks in advance !
[Desire Android Development] Rastaman-FB:
is this a gsm or cdma device?

btw my personal opinion that using something like recovery to flash hboot is very dangerous

if recovery has an issue or gltches while flashing you have a permanent brick that is unrecoverable
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
yes, but if you use CWM 2.5.0.7 as i advised in the OP it all works without trouble:)

BUT just let it reboot, when it says you have to reboot, if you wont reboot and pull the batt out, then you've got a big problem :) but its all there in the script when you applied it ;)

oh and its for GSM :D
[Desire Android Development] Rastaman-FB:
its still more risky

when i said gsm or cdma im refering to the person who has a bricked device, he said his from Illinois. thats usa, afaik they are mainly us cellular devices that are cdma and as such this hboot would brick them.
[Desire Android Development] sjknight413:
anyone have any idea if this will work with RMD recovery? i think it's based off amonra 2.2.1 sources.

bit hesitant to test seeing as the hboot is such a critial part of the phone :D
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
It still works with CWM 2.XXXX

Please give me feedback!

And if there is someone would like to convert the update scripts to CWM3/4/5XXX

Would be appreciated man!

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
The old command

write_hboot_image PACKAGE:hboot.img

in the new updater-script should be translated in

assert(package_extract_file("hboot.img", "/tmp/hboot.img"),
write_firmware_image("/tmp/hboot.img", "hboot"),
delete("/tmp/hboot.img"));

but i didn't tried it, and i dont want to try it lol :D

i see two possible scenario:

-write_firmware_image command not available

-brick bootloader (this is very bad..but why should happen? should work)
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
Thanks for your response man! I will try it ASAP ;)

Im not scared to brick my desire lol..
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
u crazy or rich? :D:P

in case of a bootloader brick, i doubt u can recover it..good luck..lol

but im start thinking that the command "write_firmware_image", even if it is an edify command, is not available on cwm..dont know
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
testing it now ;)
[Desire Android Development] nickislauw:
tested it but it says: E: Error stat'ing /tmp/hboot.img: No such file or directory

I dont have idea..i found where it fails https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery/blob/gingerbread/install.c (line 62)

Hi

Is it possible in any way to play 1080p youtube in video mode?

I want to see the videos but in a TV using the MHL cable, and If I see the videos in the browser using flash the MHL cable only shows 800x480 in the TV scaling. So, I want any mode to play 1080p like a local video to see the output in 1080p with nice quality.

Any idea?
[Galaxy S II General] Bassarnis:
Hi there, you can use an app called Tubemate, found on market. You can select the video quality you wish, and it downloads it to your phone. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] e-RickNET:
Let's try...
[Galaxy S II General] Yellow_Racing:
well??? hehe
[Galaxy S II General] NIK516:
I use tubemate its one of my most used apps and you can save mp3 music files of you tube so basic you can download your music from YouTube videos :) double nice
[Galaxy S II General] stoolzo:
hi, watch your video in a web browser instead of youtube app, when in browser choose "desktop" mode and you can simply select 1080p in the same way as if you were watching it on a PC. Click the video to drop into full screen mode and voila you have 1080p on you TV through MHL.

Dont bother with other apps, just more faffing, I never browse in mobile mode, I also use full desktop on the S2, mobile browser is too cut down.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp0rkticus:
I'm not completely familiarized with the Samsung i9100. But as a cellphone repair technician I can tell you by experience that when it comes to ROMs and Claro PR, sing the wrong one wont really work. It happened to me with a Samsung i9000, and it wouldn't completely boot until I got the ClaroPR ROM directly from some technicians at their repair center. I got lucky really, normally they wouldn't do that,I just so happen to have met the right person at the right time. Hope you can find the right one, and if you do, let me know so I can be ready when someone comes over with a soft brick.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krooked22:
The problem is i need to exchange my phone. I want the original rom to b on the phone when i bring it back because i assume they check for that stuff when someone brings in a phone.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp0rkticus:
Just wondering, what ROM u installed in it? Have you tried giving it a factory reset from the recovery menu? If you get it to boot, but it looks like it came out of the box and there is no superuser icon in the apps, they might just believe its ok to take. I know its non of my business but kinda curious as to why would you need to exchange it?

I want to exchange it for the same phone, I LOVE THIS PHONE

I bought a case that wasnt made very well. I put it on the moment I got the phone and all seemed great. When I got home I charged the phone, little did I know the rubber was part of the case was made incorrectly.

Their is no room for the plastic part of the usb cable and the cover I had bought was pushing down on the cable stressing it. Im worried that It may have loosened the usb :o

The teeth on the usb stay snapped into the phone but I am able to wiggle around the cable from side to side and up and down.

Not sure if it is supposed to be like that but it bugs me

Is your usb cable a little loose too?

Im thinking about just keeping it, I have insurance anyway just incase it ever gets really bad.

Its basically an internal struggle with me wanting everything i own to be perfect lol (no scratches , defects , etc.)

whats killing me is I have no screen protector either, I could not find any here in puerto rico. I am getting one on ebay right now tho

the numbers on the chilean version look alot like the puerto rico version (ughke2)

I am not able to generate the numbers right now because I am no longer running on the original firmware (claro PR)

but while I was on it, I had a look at the kernel info and stuff and I think they are the same numbers

Do you think I should just go ahead and flash the chilean version....I dont think it will get bricked. Same phone same company I dont know, I would just like your input on this

just woke up had some coffee, flashing original chile firm with odin. Ill let you know how it goes.

this is definetly the same firmware as the PUERTO RICO version......I THINK.

Everything is the same as I remember it

EXACTLY the same

Ok , thanks so much for your guidance. I really appreciate your input
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp0rkticus:
Glad to hear everything is running smoothly, hope it stays that way for a while. I didn't get a chance to check the thread in a while so i didn't know of the *#1234#. So as soon as someone at work passes by with one of (and they come by A LOT), I'll take a look at that and post the information. That way you can compare with the Chilean one.

Also, I know I might have to start a new thread for this but, some costumers have complained that they can't seem to get all the apps in the market, only the free apps. E.G. they type to search for Angry Birds and they can only see the free apps, not the paid ones. Just wondering if you had the same issue or if there is a tread about this already.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krooked22:
ok so It is the SAME ROM, looks the same, has all the claro bloatware and works perfect. Im sure the people who work wont notice.

but because this is the chilean firmware, like when you open the browser the homepage is claro.chile.com

if you go to "about phone" by the kernel it will say CH, which I guess means chilie. I would assume that the PR one is diffferent in that it would say PR (just a guess) and that all the web links would not be going to claro chile.

But that stuff is not noticable

If you dont look at the kernel/firmware version, this would have you fooled into thinking it was the actual claro PR ROM because its all the same

That is just an example of the little things that make it different.

The apps are all the same, the look, everything is identical.

I do know that the PUERTO RICO firmware did include an extra wallpaper that the claro one has lol, but thats the only thing that is missing.....one wallpaper

I am able to make calls, browse internet in 4g, with no problems

I do know that PR and CHILE claro are alike because they are both KE2, so for me this is close enough hahaha

The rom is exactly the same, as is the bloatware, and all apps that were on the phone I bought here in claro pr, same wallpapers , same functions, etc.

as for the market

I too noticed this problem

I am new to claro, so when I saw a market with ONLY free apps I was kind of confused. I am not sure why it does not display apps that actually cost money.

hmmmmmm
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krooked22:
Hey so i was able to fix the claro market using an app called "market enabler" you can find it on google

It lets you use the market from any provider. I can now see all paid and free apps.

It seems that the claro market just doesnt allow paid apps???

Also if you run into anybody with a stock rom on an sgs 2, please dial *#1234# and write down those numbers for us!!!

claro chile rom still working, i will let you know how the exchange goes. I hope they dont check my firmware/rom version and see the evidence that i am on a chile rom!!!

@Intratech hope this info helps on finding STOCK ROM. I'd like to get my hands on it incase someone comes over with a busted ROM to the shop.

Second:

Over here and in most places, they are a bunch of D!CKS when it comes to warranties and/or insurances. So in case there is something wrong with the phone, e.g. battery issues, and they see you changed the ROM, they'll just label it as phone abuse and null any type of warranty. They simply do this since they can't understand that software mods have nothing to do with hardware issues. It reminds me of a laptop a friend of mine had. He installed Linux into it and soon after the power supply died. The laptop was still under warranty and he took it to a Best Buy. They did nothing to help him, because they said: "you installed a different operating system, which killed your A/C power supply, thus voiding your warranty". In conclusion, when it comes to warranties/insurance in Puerto Rico they are all a bunch of d!cks.
