[HTC EVO 3D] Techronico:
I went through the steps and now phone is off and wont turn on. When connected QHSUSB_DLOAD in device manager.

Do we need to have the QHSUSB_DLOAD drivers for this exploit to work?

Thanks ahead of time.

EDIT: Did a battery pull and started over from begining. We now have S-Off!!!!! Failed to install CWM but I will install TWRP
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
Does Amon Recovery work? If so, can we get instructions for that? If not, instructions for CWM.

Thanks,

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Oh okay, I failed.
[HTC EVO 3D] CrippleB:
When I did that it just came up with a list of commands
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
If your phone wont turn on you probably dont have your fastboot drivers installed. Do that first

AS for amon RA recovery that hasent been built for the shooter yet. If you want cmw just keep running the revolutionary application and it will ask if you want it to flash CMW
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
you paste that command and drag the file into the cmd window so it tells cmd where the file is
[HTC EVO 3D] CrippleB:
There are people having trouble flashing CWM with the tool. AFter the tool finishes if you try and run again it says device not supported at this time. I have s-off but cannot flash a recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
anyone who failed when pasteing the command i just typed a new one run it
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
run the twrp recovery for now cmw flashing is a no go for people atm
[HTC EVO 3D] abiezer:
I have everything working but I don't have root.
[HTC EVO 3D] rtbluver:
Ya its just commands!
[HTC EVO 3D] CrippleB:
When I drag it into window it says windows cannot open this file and wants tyo search the web
[HTC EVO 3D] clark44:
your command should look like this

C:\sdk\tools>fastboot flash recovery C:\Users\abe\Desktop\recovery-twrp-shooter-1.0.0.img

kjust change

C:\Users\abe\Desktop\recovery-twrp-shooter-
1.0.0.img

top where your .img is
[HTC EVO 3D] souless poet:
I have all the drivers installed. I have uninstalled htc sync. I am stuck on waiting for fastboot. Can't get past that part. HHHMMMMM

Edit: I reinstalled the drivers about three times while it was waiting for fastboot. Disconnected and connected a few times and it finally took.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
So that means that you should opt out of the CWM install and install TWRP after doing s-off? Would be nice if we had full instructions: including what to select/install during the revolutionary exe.

Mike
[HTC EVO 3D] Gadget Man 007:
Exact same situation here.

Edit: Just saw the post above that CWM isn't working yet.
[HTC EVO 3D] WillJitsu:
I flashed this through fastboot and it appeared to work. It won't boot into the recovery though. Are there some steps I'm missing?
[HTC EVO 3D] ibejaminben:
beta key

I have tried to enter in the beta key oh about 20 time but it keeps saying invalid press almost and key to abort anyone else having this problem ?
[HTC Sensation] Cola-Wodka:
Now that we have S-OFF how can we debrand our phones? Is it enough to flash the unbranded RUU? Or do we have to do it through recovery?
[HTC Sensation] Fritti:
I would like to know this too, would like to remove the branding from my Sensation as well.
[HTC Sensation] bonesy:
Download a custom rom.Any chance either of you can perform a backup in recovery and upload the recovery.img please
[HTC Sensation] rahiljnmc:
same querry i m on s off

i installed super cid on tried to flash asia_wwe {381 mb} on mt tmobile sensation, it gave me error 130 (ruu not specific for device).

follow the guide the flash any rom for the "unlocked" international version of the Sensation.
[HTC Sensation] rahiljnmc:
How is that supposed to help in debranding the phone??
[HTC Sensation] rahiljnmc:
ok

I installed leedroid, based on europe unbranded rom on my tmobile. i knew it before hand that would not debrand my phone, even then i did it.

i then tried to install ruu for the same version. got smae error 130 (not specific for device).

I noticed that installing leedroid did not update my baseband.(radio)

Maybe i'll try installing radio and see if it works.

Guys if anyone has any idea kindly help! we dont wana pay $30 for getting an ulock code, if it can be done on our own

S-off done

Clockworkmod

Perm Root

SuperCID installed

Update: Changed baseband as well did not work :(
[HTC Sensation] rahiljnmc:
Ok

I think the SuperCID posted in the DEV section is not working.

Because in the HTC desire Z section here, there is a post on how to debrand the phone.

and its pretty simple:

1-S off

2-CID Off

Flash any unbranded RUU from PC and good to go!

I have SuperCID installed but when i Flash RUU it give error 130 (Incoorect RUU for the Device).

So i guess SUper CID is not doing what its supposed to do
[HTC Sensation] alexp999:
Here you go guys, I wrote up a guide in the dev section:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1193033
[HTC Sensation] Fritti:
Thanks alexp999. Is there any difference with the SuperCID method? Is having ENG H-BOOT better? Noob questions, I know....
[HTC Sensation] alexp999:
I prefer not changing cid, then I don't have to keep backup for warranty purposes. My method also doesn't require root.

Eng hboot is only temporary as it gets overwritten with shipped hboot when you flash the ROM from the ruu. Eng is only used to bypass cid check.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
I see its in the settings but I'm wondering if our device is capable or not. Right now, I'm in the middle of choosing this or the sensation and its a really tough call. I love both and I'm happy dumping my g2x.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
Looks like I got my answer. I decided to go through my old cables and found some for my Zune HD. Low and behold, this was the result. Ha
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Akujin:
Wow nice. So it plugs into the audio jack?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] arcticwolf8:
Yup, we were supposed to get MHL but I guess it was dropped prior to release. Pretty sure the phone also supports wireless display.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] HeyTao:
Wireless display? you mean DLNA ?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
Would DLNA have better clarity than through the 3.5mm?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] arcticwolf8:
Yes, it is referred to Screen Share on the phone. That's what I read online anyway, I haven't actually received my device yet.

I'm not entirely sure, from what I've read it makes the phone into a media server, so I would assume it would theoretically provide better clarity as it would be the television decoding the media and not the phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Protricity:
Can you tell us what kind of cable that was? Rca or component? That's kind of the key info here
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] arcticwolf8:
It would be RCA
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] MrCes:
I wouldn't rule out mhl yet unless we test it and see that it doesn't work. Next week I will purchase one to test
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Protricity:
Thx. I tried two rca a\v splitters and the vid came out fuzzy. Can't imagine the brand would matter here
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
I'm not sure of the difference but here's a pic of what I used.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Protricity:
Apparently brand does matter. The splitters I've tried all output fuzzy. I can make out images of the desktop/apps in the waves of fuzz.

Strange that I cannot find a bit of information anywhere on this topic, much less which accessories to buy for tv out.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
That is very interesting. I will definitely try to get some better pics and maybe we can compare differences? Although, i agree. I never knew of the function til going through all the settings.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] chris2fer:
Is that a four pole rca cable? I believe it is, but I couldn't tell from the picture.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
Using this type of cables is completely new to me. Would you explain four pole? All I can say for certain is that they're just an old Zune HD set of cables I had laying around. Ironically, they never worked for it and got lost after it was stolen. I don't really find them that useful though as it's clearly not anything near HDMI output quality. I still find it strange that this "feature" hasn't been even mentioned.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] icoman:
Connected mine to the TV using one of these too. The strange thing is that instead of outputting the signal through the yellow colored jack it comes through the red audio one.:confused:

Picture looks decent considering it's one rca connector. It looks like either 720x480 or 640x480 to me but, I can't tell for sure. I know my PS2 outputs 512x448 for most games so I get black bars on all four sides however, with this phone I only see them on the right and left which makes me think it's 640x480 but, since it's interlaced it's hard for me to be sure which also makes me wonder if the image is down-sampled or something as it appears to look pretty smoothed. Picture isn't great but, I've seen much worse. Screen output rotates with the phone which is nice. T-mobile TV works on a few channels but not many. Most everything else works ok.

When using screen-share (DLNA) I can't get the PS3 to find the phone and, I can't get the phone to find the PS3. I'm hoping an update will fix it.

The Twonky dlna app works though its a little buggy
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I was on the fence about this particular phone, but this thread just sold it.

Thanks, I was content with my Nook Color until the right phone came along, and i've been watching everything that's been coming out.

Given the performance, features, and capabilities of this phone, and now THIS...

I'll be picking it up within the next few days or so, and be on the lookout for cables to test this out with.

Posted to thank the OP and tag the thread so I can get back to it more quickly when I have something to contribute. My first entry to the smart phone ballgame, this is gonna be fun.

ETA: picked one up yesterday. I like it, i'm going to find a video cable for it today.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fearsome Yeti:
I'm wondering if the reason they didn't advertise this feature is because the backing software or even hardware wasn't bug free. I have a 3.5mm plug with 4 connectors but can't get video on any of the rca plugs at the tv. I can see that video is being outputted but only a black and white, extremely distorted "picture" displays (nothing like the reports of it working here).

I ordered the zune cable from amazon, may report back if that works.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] chris2fer:
I used a four pole headphone type jack cable that came with my head unit for my car. The four poles are left audio, right audio, video and ground separated by black dividers.

I was able to get it to work. It's not great video, but it works good for a car audio/video output. I am able to use it along with Google navigation as a pseudo gps unit.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Preliminary testing says:

I used a Radioshack Gigaware camcorder a/v cable - goes from mini to rca (red, white, yellow)

Video output is through the red rca jack, as someone mentioned above.

In portrait mode on the phone, it takes up the center of the screen.

Forcing the phone into landscape by sliding out the keyboard stretches the video to fill the whole screen.

Output in NTSC-M gives the best picture for me.

Quick test, I only had a few minutes with the t.v. at the time, and I don't currently own one (yet) so i'll add more when I get a chance to play with one again. Will be soon.

I didn't have any video on the phone yet, I just got it and haven't finished setting it up.

I swapped out the 8 gig MicroSD card it came with (Sandisk brand - awesome) with a 16 gig SanDisk one, so i'll get some video on it in different formats (with audio!) and see how it goes the next time I get in front of a television.

I'm curious to know if it outputs audio to the t.v. as well, and whether it's stereo or mono. It could very well just be that the connections are in the wrong spot and it just makes the color coding on the cables themselves wrong, or we may get mono, or no audio at all.

If anyone else finds out before I get a chance to, please post it here!

Edit - Sorry about the flash on the screen, I was really under the gun for time and didn't think to take the picture from an angle to the side, I was wracking my brain to figure out how to get the picture to fill the screen.

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2886&view=1&c=t-mobile_mytouch_4g_slide_htc_doubleshot

This database lists the mytouch 4g slide as having an mhl connector.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Protricity:
Yep, that was my experience with 2 splitters. It may be that only a specific kind of splitter works for this phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Okay, I got a chance to try again.

Played fine on the t.v., and was able to get it to landscape this time by just tilting the phone. Didn't have to force it by sliding out the keyboard like I did last time.

I got audio through the white rca jack, (still video through red), and it was pretty decent.

When I plugged the yellow rca jack into the open red input on the back of the t.v., it made the sound real crappy. Got all muffled and you could barely hear it.

Looks like we get mono - anyone else have any findings in this department?

Anyone have any experience with MHL and this phone?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jonathan3579:
I'll test it (again) tonight.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dansl:
Works great!! Both sound and video. I'm just using a cable similar to this, but not exactly the same brand.

http://www.amazon.com/3-5MM-Plug-RCA-Video-Cable/dp/B000IMHDS2

Red is Red, Yellow is Yellow, white is white... no need to swap, in my case.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Okay, that's awesome.

I wonder why mine is all funky - i'll have to attribute it to the cable at this point, because that's a much better bet then the phone being the culprit.

I'll see about getting some different cables and testing it out.

I've run on 3 different televisions so far, and it was always the same result for me - red is video and white is mono audio.

I really appreciate the awesome pic and description of a working setup, the link was nice.

You can see how it's a tiny bit fuzzy in the pic I posted above, but that t.v. was who knows how many years old and i've gotten better picture on more current models.

Your t.v. looks to be newer, and the picture quality seems to be spot on great.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] aNYthing24:
Doesn't it support MHL?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fearsome Yeti:
I received the zune cable and that worked great. I haven't taken the multimeter to both to compare yet. Amazon has the zune cable for ~5 bucks and its prime.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] P45:
Hey guys first post here ;)

So I've got my "3.5mm RCA Audio Video AV Cable for iPod" (3$ with shipping) from Amazon yesterday. Everything works fine I've tested it on two TVs 60in DLP and 42in LCD. All in all quality is fine might even say better than my old Ps2. I also gave the Sensation a try but no luck, guess there's no 3.5 TV-out there. Another thing that I ordered was the Patriot 16gb Class10 MicroSD, not the best (cheap) but works fine for 3 days now. So far as my first Android phone I love it, only thing is that I wish it had a 4in display. All I need now is to root and connect my PS3 controller to it yay =]. Here's a pic.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] P45:
Here ya go bro...i'm a new user so i have to wait 8 posts before i can post a proper link. The cable is around 5ft and pretty decent made. :) I'm big into gaming so maybe ill post a topic about games for mt4gs on here some other day. So far i've learned that some tegra games ale playable (with proper drivers) and most emulators work properly etc. but that's in the future. Cool forum btw.

Just picked up one of these on eBay:

3.5mm to RCA AV Audio Video out CA-75U Cable for Nokia

Looks like it should work and it's Nokia quality for less than $3 delivered. It's just going to take a couple weeks to get here from China/HK

http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-5mm-RCA-A...Accessories&hash=item4aac75b2e4#ht_4489wt_915
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Okay, I got This cable in a few days ago, and have tested it on several televisions now.

This is the link P45 posted above. I bought the last one listed in stock last week, and just checked right before making this post - 14 left in stock...so the seller got more in.

At $0.49 and $2.95 for shipping, it's a fantastic deal for a cable that does exactly what we need.

Fits snug, and transmits picture and sound clearly. All RCA connections match up to the colors they are supposed to be.

It's not as bulky as my other cable, and makes transporting it easier.

I have a tiny camera case I carry a usb charging cable and tis A/V cable in, with a flash drive and a couple MicroSD cards. All fit in the small camera case, which fits in one of my pockets easy.

------------------

The generic Camcorder A/V cable I was using from radio shack is much larger, bulkier, and for some reason doesn't transmit the signal correctly. Had to find the picture on the red RCA jack using the radio shack cable.

------------------

Wanted to report back about the cable now that I had a chance to use it a bit.

The A/V cable made for an iPod is what we want, so keep an eye out for one of those. Works well.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yellowjacket1981:
has anyone tried this with netflix? Does it look okay?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] zygut:
Does this require you to enable something on the phone? I tried plugging in a cable that I have but nothing came up on the TV. I looked at every setting I could find and only could find different TV out formats (such as NTSC or PAL).

The cable I have is a headphone style cable at one end, plugged into the phone, and at the other is an RCA video cable (yellow) plugged into the video in on my TV.

The TV is old, so maybe there is a certain format that is required?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fearsome Yeti:
Had a response for you before your edit:

Zune cable

This one works for sure. I tried another that looked identical (still haven't taken the multimeter to it) but did not work. If you want a safe bet for 5 bucks the M$ zune one will work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fearsome Yeti:
No but the cable needs to have 4 individual connectors on the 3.5mm end. Even the cable I had that didn't work (audio/video-wise) still triggered the "TV Out" dialog - because it has the 4 3.5mm contacts.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Yep, as Fearsome Yeti mentioned above, plugging in a cable will automatically trigger the TV function on the phone. If you aren't getting that then your cable isn't going to work.

I had a 4-pole double sided cable (3.5 on both ends) but apparently is no good because it wouldn't trigger the phone to go to TV mode. I know the phone works for it, because i've used video through other cables.

Also, as a side note, forget whether it's been mentioned or not, the video cable works for an antenna for the FM Radio stock app. Pretty good too, I get stations I normally can't get with regular radios in my house due to interference.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AndroidAutobot:
Boy was i dense. I always assumed the micro usb to hdmi cables would be the only option. I excitingly stand corrected! =)

I just so happen to have the correct cable lying around at home too! =) left over from my old touch pro 2.

Cant wait till CM7 (crossing my fingers) or another AOSP build from source so i can pair this thing up to a wii remote + classic controller (for use with yongzh's emulators) =). Wii Remote + Classic Controller + yongzh's emulators + video out on the MT4GS = portable NES, SNES, Genesis and Gameboy Advance = absolute win!!!!

Not to mention the potential of Netflix working well would = portable roku box =)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yellowjacket1981:
netflix works great. I just got my cable a few days ago in the mail, and hooked it up to this old tv I had lying around, and it works perfectly! I can now watch movies in my living room, instead of crouching over my laptop! yay!
