[Streak 5 General] metal1f3:
Sorry. I have no sources for info. This was all done with my very basic knowledge of how things work. I wanted to make sure someone was interested, before I went to the trouble to explain how I did it. I guess, in the nature of android, I should have been willing to all ready. lol.

First i download rom manager from the market. I was hoping to be able to do it through the option in rom manager "flash alternate recovery", however i could not figure out how to get this to work. So here is what I did.

1. I opened rom manager and selected "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and selected Dell Streak, and let it flash the recovery.

2. I then when in to andexplorer, any file explorer will work, and searched for where exactly it saves the recovery. Which was /mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/download/download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries

3. This is where it saved the recovery unfortunately I've deleted it but I'll use streakrecovery-example.img as an example.

4. I renamed the recovery streakrecovery-example.img to streakrecovery-example.img.bak

5. I then placed the stock recovery into the same folder and renamed it streakrecovery-example.img (make sure its identical to the .bak recovery, only without .bak)

6. I rebooted the phone to make sure rom manager would notice the changes, but you may not need to.

7. I opened rom manager and selected "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery", and let it do its thing.

8. Upon success I then powered down and manually rebooted into recovery and selected option 2. Software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD card, and to my surprise was greeted with the stock recovery options. (Power to preform emergency recovery, or Volume up to Power off device)

9. I pressed power and ran the update. The device is now on stock 354. =)

Edit: This was only useful to me because of the broke pdmi port on my moms streak. If you guys think this would be useful for everyone I will start a new "How to Thread" with this same post as soon as i get time. What would be the appropriate section for How to's, General?

Hi all, I bought a HTC Sensation yesterday from cpwh and as of today its developed a whole load of faults. First off is it keeps dropping calls, Bluetooth is very choppy whilst playing music and making phone calls, getting very hot and videos keep freezing. Anyway I took it back and they would not give me a refund or exchange as they could not see the fault on the device in store. They were very unfriendly. I bought the phone sim free and as I've read I'm entitled to a full refund within 7 days. Any advice is very much appreciated.

Thanks Nathan
[General Questions and Answers] colinmc8:
go back and ask to speak to the manager, look pissed off and if anyone gives you problems ask them their name and how you can make an official complaint.

Thats what I would do
[General Questions and Answers] NatTheCat:
Yeh i think that might be the best bet. I must say i will never ever go back to that shop again or any after this is cleared up. Ive read a ton of other complaints about them now so im somewhat more clued up about my rights on the matter. C

All the new gingerbread roms seem to come with stagefright player enabled by default. I have noticed that when running quadrant, the h.264 cpu test finishes almost instantly. But, looking through the web it seems that this is due to some bug in stagefright, and not because the rom is super-optimized. As a result the quadrant scores we get are actually much higher. Does anyone know how to get stagefright to work properly? And also can whenever rom dev when you put up quadrant scores, could please put it with and without stagefright enabled?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ElGeorge:
This is a pretty much old known issue. Use the search forum feature with "stagefright quadrant" as keywords and you'll find plenty info about that.

Usually the Quadrant scores that you'll see around here are with stagefright disabled, unless its specified otherwise.

So my niece bought a Mytouch 3g 32a (3.5mm jack)

SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAPP31000)

RADIO-2.22.28.25

JUN 2 2009,17:27:03

Is what got so far(i am rooted of course), Ive been trying to flash this ROM for 4 hours now(stubborn)

Can anyone tell me as far as components what am i missing? Ive read my ass off, watched numerous videos and it seems that there 30 different configurations for all these different roms availible..

If anyone can point me in the right direction that would make a 13 yr old girl who got her first android very happy..

Btw, is the superwipe method use in the video from the OP vital?

Thanx in advance for your help
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ezterry:
The sapphire Unknown 32a is what usually happens when you put the 1.33.20XX SPLs on a MT2.1/Fender phone with the audio jack.

for all the functionality of the MT2.1/Fender to work you must use the 1.33.0013/1.33.0013d SPLs.

First install adb/fastboot on your PC if you do not already have the programs installed. (Search for it since I just build/put the linux binaries on my path)

Download dream_2708kit.zip

Unzip the dream_2708kit.zip on your PC; you will see 2 files:

>> hboot-1.33.0013d.img (MD5: c35ff1159828a6186cb98a9cfaa81613) Place this somewhere easy to access (such as on your C: drive if you have windows)

>> radio-2.22.27.08.img This file is not needed delete it

Download [http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img]recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img[/URL] (MD5: 8b3b5ff90575eba0c5bfc13c0fa6b8ea) (file from this thread)

Place recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img in the same place as you did hboot-1.33.0013d.img

Open your command line/terminal on your PC and run (per your fastboot instructions) the following:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.0013d.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase system -w

(note if you placed recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img and hboot-1.33.0013d.img on your C: drive make sure you either are in C: when calling fastboot at the command line, or easier just provide the full path to the file eg: fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G.img)

Now you ought to have the correct SPL and recovery

You can now power off (press menu on the phone) and then boot into recovery (press home while turning on)

Once in recovery flash a rom as usual;

if the files are not on the root of your SD card mount the MS Card via recovery to your computer then copy into the root of the sdcard:

>>in the case of ginger yoshi:

ginger yoshi 1.2.1 fix 1.zip (from the media file link on the ginger yoshi OP)

ezgb-2636-v1.5_S.zip (from here)

Then eject the sdcard on your computer (on windows that’s: safely remove hardware)

Then flash the ginger yoshi 1.2.1; in recovery followed by the kernel

>>in the case of ezGingerbread:

From the second post get:

GINGERBREAD-DS-Beta-20110716.zip AND gapps-mdpi-gb-20110709_S.zip

Then eject the sdcard on your computer (on windows that’s: safely remove hardware)

Then flash the Beta followed by the gapps

(Note I'm not the one to ask about any problems with adb/fastboot on windows; Also I don't particularly support ginger yoshi, my ezGingerbread rom eats plenty of my time.. so make sure you ask any questions here and don't PM me .. as you will get a reply much faster posting here)

Proper Kernal for Ginger Yoshi

A solution I have found to getting the Ginger Yoshi ROM on a MyTouch 1.2 with a 3.5 jack is to after you flash the ROM, flash the Proper Kernal for the MyTouch 1.2 over the ROM.

I don't have the link for the right Kernal offhand,

but I have been using Ginger Yoshi since 1.2 or 1.3 by doing that, and am currently using the 1.5.

If you PM me I can send you the kernal I use and you can try it.

Hey all. New user so I wasnt able to post on the development thread I saw. So I saw that Motorola has the official update to 2.3, and from what Ive read if you have unlocked your phone, updating will most likely brick your phone. What about on simply a rooted atrix? Will i be fine updating to 2.3? Will my phone still be rooted?
[General Questions and Answers] dsa88:
Actually, as being newbie too.. I understood that only DOWNGRADE from Gingerbread backward to any previous version will brick the phone.

Now, about updating already rooted phone.. i tried OTA but failed (got that yellow exclamation mark screen). So, what is necessary to successfully update rooted 1.83 to GB and to have root access again after? If possible not to loose any data, partitions etc.. Or simply how to apply OTA update on rooted phone then to root it again?

Rooted Atrix

First time posting here, hopefully I am on the right thread.

I am currently using Android V 2.2.2 on a rooted AT&T Atrix. I tried downloading the new Motorola released Gingerbread over-the-air, which downloaded fine. However when I try to install I keep getting "exclamation" mark with the android logo. I hard to hard reset the phone and got the message "software upgrade failed" message.

Is there something I am supposed to do prior to the installation? Since my phone has already been rooted (that's about all I did).

Thanks for any help. And glad to be here. better late than never. :)
[General Questions and Answers] tangbunna:
I have heard that in order to upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3.4 OTA from Rooted 2.2.2 of Atrix 4G, We need to UNROOT first. if not OTA upgrade will soft brick the phone.

As i heard, there is another solution which is to OFFLINE upgrade via USB cable by computer. first is to download the Gingerbread ROM for ATRIX 4G from Motorola website.

For exact How-To guide I am not sure and can't find yet. if any one know How to Unroot and Offline upgrade, Please help to clarify.

Please let me know if Unroot the "gingerbreak" on 2.2.2 will cause any trouble? as i have experienced rooting Atrix 4G Froyo 2.2.2 by Gingerbreak has vanished all my internal memory contents :'( . now time for unroot and upgrade.. feel very risky!!!

Haha I forgot my BootupHTC is different, it's actually the Windows 7 startup sound renamed, I found in a XDA thread along time ago. I forgot JWD is for 6.5, Why not just flash your phone to 6.5.3 it is better than 6.1 anyway ;). Maybe you can use the tool "Total Commander". Rename the XP startup sound to "Bootuphtc" and then use total commander to place it in the windows directory using the move file function( Just a thought).

It's a simple as this if you want stay with 6.1 that's fine but you will never get a solution to your problem if you flash your phone to 6.5.3 then you will get a solution to your problem and alot more.

I have heard good things about x826 Rom series( People say it's the best Sense 2.5 rom series) but I'm not a Sense 2.5 fan. I have used many Sense 2.5 roms and came to the conclusion that it's not worth the frustration( Freezing and etc.....), my phone memory, and my ram. I use SPB 3.5.5 with hardware acceleration and like it way better than Sense 2.5 and have never had problem with it yet :). Test it out and let me know what you think about it.

interesting, that isn't so much better than an (optimized) sense 2.5-rom... always thought it'd be more. (4 days since last reboot and heavy use)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
Well your Sense 2.5 rom is different than the rest since it's combined with 2 different ones. Also before I installed anything after I flashed my phone I had about 120-122mb free of ram which is big difference, when I used Sense 2.5 roms Touch it, Energy ,MaxSense, and etc...... I would start off with like 75 mb and then it would drop from there. Also I'm using optxperiabeta02 because the "Microsoft Sound boost" app doesn't work with this rom( it's actually made my sound stop working but luckily I fixed it). Optxperiabeta02 uses my ram so my free ram would be 95-98 mb instead of the 86 mb shown in my pic. You are lucky or your rom is really that good, I have never been able to accomplish 4 days no reboot or freezes with any Sense 2.5 rom I have used lol.

with 826x,i have only 80mb free space of ram.and when i used shmessenger (free chat on yahoo) it freezed shmessenger sometime about 10s. but it's very low weight. so i think a reason is processor.i use WiMoSpeed and up sucess to 614,4 But it isnt a solution. Do you know?

New Q: How to up CPu Speed to 710mhz (like sign of Viper89) :-/

My X1 work good at 614mhz. if higher = freeze
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
It really depends on the rom what determines how high you can push it, I have stopped using 710mhz because it's unstable I use 652mhz now. That's weird you can't push it past 614 mhz, it's probably because of the rom or sense or both.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
depends on rom (and radio, i think?)

sense isn't a problem when overclocking, i have it stable at 652 with sense 2.5.

(one step higher is possible, but system gets unstable; above that - instant freeze)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper89:
Ya I wasn't sure if Sense 2.5 would effect it or not, I noticed some apps when in the 672+ range they freeze my phone on me like for example Windows Media Player. So I just assume Sense 2.5 it might of been part of the problem.

No I don't mean turn it off, I mean get rid of the rom completely. I mean try a rom that has 6.5.3 without sense built in. For example Dynamics GTX 2.2.0, and don't worry about a UI I got a copy of SPB 3.5.5 and pretty cool weather app called Touch Weather which IMO is better than Sense 2.5 weather that I can give you.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tronar:
Hi,

obviously I am new to this forum (yes, I admit it, I had an iPhone 4 until recently :o ). I read a lot of threads here and managed to root two HTC Desire Z phones thanks to the many helpful infos here! I even had to debrand the 2nd Desire Z, because it was a Vodafone branded phone, using a Goldcard, which worked like a charm.

Now everything seems to be fine so far, except some little occasional hickups:

One is, that my battery seems to drain pretty fast when I am downloading something over my Home-WiFi. It can go down over 40% within two hours.

The second is, that every now and then, the phones do not find my WiFi broadcast automatically. I have to go into settings, access points and then manually select the WiFi and hit confirm on the next screen popup showing the MAC-address amongst other things. Most of the times all I need to do is switch my phone on to get the connection. But sometimes it just doesn't...

Both phones are running the Virtuous v2.0.0 (Vision), which is based on the latest 2.42.405.2 release from HTC.

In addition I manually flashed the radio to 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M using the image from this thread, since it still had the really old radio (26.03.02.26_M) from the downgrade process to the 1.34 firmware installed and this radio seemed to be the one officially released by HTC in connection with the latest 2.42.405.2 firmware.

So now I am wondering if this was the right choice. :confused:

I've run across threads claiming the .30 radio (and probably another radio starting with 26.08 or so ?) would be a good combination with the Virtuous v2.0.0. But I am wondering why one should use an older radio. And I don't want to try out many different radios for the next days, so I am hoping, that maybe somebody here has already gone through that process or can at least elaborate on their experiences with the radio they are using. :)

Maybe someone can also shed some light onto the question, if I should also align my RIL as discussed in this thread.

Thanx in advance!!!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karlonicolas:
The radio depends on your location. Best to ask someone from your country about the better radio to use.

as for me, i do not like the new radio, as the data connection is sluggish, as compared to the older ones.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsteven77x:
The best radio to use would be the one that was RELEASED with the rom. The one that ends in .03.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tronar:
The data connection is definitely different with the .03, because before my phone usually showed 3G on a regular basis and switched to H only when I caused some data transfer (e.g. browsing or requesting data through a Widget). Now my phone constantly displays an H (unless I am in a G only region of course).

Question: did they just change the way the connection is displayed or did they also change the switching between regular 3G and HSDPA? I think I read somewhere that the switching preserved battery in the long run, because maintaining an H connection requires more power than a simpler 3G connection. Does anyone know something about that?
