[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScottSnider:
Okay, so I've seen these issues dealt with separately, but never in conjunction. Unfortunately, I am having both in conjunction.

Starting with a fresh Droid Eris, I used a one-click root to allow superuser permissions.

From there, I flashed CM7. Along with many other users, I ran into the issue where I had no data or voice signal.

I'll let you know here, that I've wiped EVERY time I did anything. This is NOT a wipe issue.

I flashed the newest radio... No luck. So, I went through clockwork's recovery and reverted back to the original 2.1 ROM. Still no luck on the signal issue. At this point, I decided to reflash CM7 and try to deal with the issue through ADB.

This is where things went wrong. The load for CM7 corrupted (I'm assuming) and gave me a nice case of Bootloop. Thinking everything was fine, (Assuming I'd do a battery pull and just go back to 2.1) I booted into the original Android recovery and NOW the damn track ball will no longer make selections. It will scroll, but not select.

Here's my question: Seeing as I can not boot fully to allow usb debugging, and I can not recover through Android (Thank you, trackball), is there ANY way to reflash the original RUU through ADB?

Thus far, I can't get passed the obvious "This device is not ready," prompt.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
FYI, adb is available when the custom recovery is booted.

what that means is that with the recovery booted you can:

1) drop a smallish (say, less than 100 MB) ROM file into /cache (e.g. "adb push")

2) create an Android command file (/cache/recovery/command) with a single line that points at the ROM file as an update

3) do a "adb shell reboot recovery"

This will cause the subsequent boot to the recovery to automatically install the ROM file you dropped in cache.

Voila. No trackball needed.

The syntax for the command file (/cache/recovery/command) will be a single line:

--update_package=CACHE:your_ROM_file_name_goes_here.zip

See this post for an expanded explanation.

cheers

[ Edit ]

Note that the above is a thumbnail sketch which requires you to fill in the blanks. For instance, wiping /data and /cache and flashing packages after the main ROM. Cumbersome, but you only need to do it once. Once you have a rooted ROM installed, you should flash a trackball-free version of the recovery so you don't need this method for every ROM you install. Instructions for that (using "flash_image" via adb) can be found elsewhere.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scary alien:
Scott,

Whoa! You got a lot going on there...:eek:

Okay, I don't have all of the answers here for you, but I know enough to ask a few questions that we'll need a clarification on.

1. Can you tell us your HBOOT version and whether its S-ON or S-OFF?

2. You mentioned that you've used ClockworkMod (not good :(, but maybe not terrible)...you also have mentioned using/having Amon_RA custom recovery. Which custom recovery do you have currently installed and can you boot into said recovery?

3. By the way, I think the voice/data signal thing is fixable--it sounds familiar to me, but I don't know the answer right off-hand and this is not your primary issue at the moment.

4. You should be able to run the RUU to restore 2.1 back to your phone. It doesn't require a working custom recovery running and/or adb. Although you might simply be asking if you can flash a ROM through adb, then the answer is yes, you can. Although you will need custom recovery running to make sure its adb server is running and that, of course, require USB connectivity (alluding to your "This device is not ready." message).

5. Usually, installing HTC Sync will install the USB drivers necessary for you to use adb. If that doesn't work for you, PM me with your email address and I'll send you about 10MBs worth of USB drivers I've collected over the last year that might help you with this issue.

6. Lastly, there is a version of Amon_RA's custom recovery available that does not require the use of the trackball. You're not really in a position to flash/install that at this point unless you have the S-OFF engineering bootloader.

I'll hold-off with additional info pending your responses to the above.

Cheers!

So I have a partitioned (ex2) sd card and I am moving to a new rom (froyobread). I want to start all over from scratch. But when I installed the rom, I noticed that all my apps are still installed. How can I format my phone so that everything (apps, settings, accounts) is gone?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diegoxcore12:
U can format the ext2 with minitool partition wizard (windows app) o simplily use the ext format of clock work mod (partition -> format ext)

Hello guys!

I guess the possibly of bricking this phone is going to be higher with the new update and even if not i think it would be great if we had a thread that explains how to Unbrick S8500. I'm a developer and a fast learner and my plans is to join the android porting project but first i need the tools to unbrick the phone(mine is not bricked.. yet).

So i found this :

multi-com.pl/index.php/en_US,details,id_pr,8047,menu_mode,categories.html

Very Cheap and seems easy to use. I guess some wires(cable) are missing so if anyone could link the products(tools) that are missing.

Would be nice if we could help each other to have a good tread that could help people to unbrick S8500.

New Amontec JtagKey should do also. But can't confirm it yet - still not getting proper JTAG enumeration on mine similiar thing. (soldering issue most likely)

//edit: Oh yea, original jtagkey is kinda expensive. But there are some constructions based on it and much cheaper.

Maybe more details...

Why dead?

During Flashing with Multiloader or other Firmwareupdate procedure?

Key Combination for Download Mode work?

Are you sure battery is full enough... not empty?

I dropped the legend on the floor, opened the battery and turned off.

I turn on legend and I do not have network coverage "No Service". I entered in the "Wireless Networks" Mobile Networks and the option is blacken while the option airplane mode is turned on .

What should I do?

[Android Themes] asapelectric:
What do you have to do to get that app to find my tha icons. It only seems to direct you to the market to buy more. I don't need more, I've bought 8 packs. It'd be helpful if the app would allow to go to files I downloaded off your site.:)

Is there a folder I need to put them in?
[Android Themes] ThaPHLASH:
i assume your talking about Phlashcut... at the moment the feature to pick icons from sd card is not implemented... Phlashcut only works with my icon pack apps.... files from my site are straight .png.. and can be changed using bettercut or desktop visualizer... take a second to read the faq here:

http://www.thaicon.thasyndicate.com/faq/
[Android Themes] asapelectric:
Yeah.. I know how to do it using Desktop Visualizer. The app seems like it'd be quicker, that's all. Thanks.

Also, is there a app, that you know of, that will change all the Icons to yours in a single shot? Then I can go thru and change even more.
[Android Themes] ThaPHLASH:
My Phlashcut app is still under development...but in the todo list is, aside from picking image from the sd card, also a batch update script to change all icons at once.. but since my devs are really busy, i dont know when that will be completed...

Alternatively, you can try my ADW themes, they will change a lot of icons at once, and the ones that dont change you can do manually...

Thanks for your interest, im constantly working on this project and trying to make it easier, stay tuned :)
[Android Themes] asapelectric:
Oh I will stay tuned, you've got a good thing going there, I love your icons! Most folks are not high tech, so the easier you make it to change things, the more money you'll probably make. For example, I don't know another person that has a rooted phone or does heavy customizing.:D
[Android Themes] ThaPHLASH:
Thx... a apps that changes all the icons is the holly grail... hope i pull it off :)
[Android Themes] polstein:
You can cheat on icons using Desktop Visualizer. I posted a mini-tutorial on the big icon thread, but basically..

Set DV pointing to an icon on you sd card, say \sdcard\icon1.png

During say Halloween, copy over your Halloween icon & replace \sdcard\icon1.png.

Reboot.

You should now have your new graphic :)

So what i do for my 20 Home icons, is I made a folder called "icons" with my 20 icons in there. I then have a subfolder for each theme, each with the same 20 named files. When I want to change themes, I copy the 20 files & paste/overwrite the 20 in the 'main' folder & reboot. Just need to make sure all the names match. Originally, I named them by number (1.png, 2.png..etc), but now I use generic app types (ie, Twitter.png over Plume.png incase I change my Twitter app).

===

Of course, if this new icon changing app comes out - I'd jump all over it.

OH - ThaPHLASH - I think I put in a couple requests for icons a while ago, but never thought to re-download or check my pack. One icon that was missing was any sort of ebook reader (I use Cool Reader). I've probably added some regular use apps since (like Spotify & Pocket Casts), so need to check the complete list of which apps are themed, or at least have generics.
[Android Themes] docsparks:
Just out of curiosity..

DVR basically just makes a folder of its own for each custom shortcut you create, and keeps the image you selected in that folder?

So each time DVR loads it just loads from its own folder, and you just make more identical folders, and just swap the icons out, keep the names, etc.

And all will stay for each reload?

im most concerned, is that because its custom shortcuts, theres no "master folder" we could make that has all the icons from THA-xxxx packages properly named for each custom shortcut. - Correct?

Its based off of each individual custom shortcut, that was setup the first time. - Right?

Any info will help, i do have DVR, but dont have time to mess around just yet.

Anything you can explain will be awesome though.

Thanks!
[Android Themes] polstein:
DVR doesn't make it's own folders - I manually made a folder (and subfolder) structure on my own sd card.

On my sd card I have the following folders (I have more, this is just an example):

/sdcard/Icons

/sdcard/Icons/AndCubes

/sdcard/Icons/SuaveHd

/sdcard/Icons/Tha_Mickey

In each folder (*including /sdcard/Icons*) I have the following files:

sms.png

email.png

spotify.png

ebook.png

waze.png

(etc, I have 20 .png files)

When I created my DVR widget on my home launcher, I have the icon for say Go SMS pointing to /sdcard/Icons/sms.png

Now, when I want to change themes, I copy the 20 files from:

/sdcard/Icons/Tha_Mickey

to

/sdcard/Icons/

overwriting the 20 files in /sdcard/Icons/

Reboot. You should now have the Tha_Mickey theme. To switch themes again, I copy the 20 files from say /sdcard/Icons/AndCubes over to /sdcard/Icons/ & reboot.

Repeat as often as you'd like.

Note, this works for me on my launcher, but in other cases where I tried the same trick it's hit & miss (say using a DVR widget or shortcut on Swipepad).

I also like DVR widget without any text & you get a larger icon at the same time.

So in short, it seems that the DVR widget has a pointer aiming to a specific file on your device. When you reboot & the widget loads, it goes to its pointer & gets the graphic. It doesn't cache the image or save it somewhere else.

Hope this makes it more clear!

--

I really like icons, especially holiday themes & like switching things up often. Nudge to ThaPHLASH - need book icons.

Oh - one unrelated question to ThaPHLASH - if you added a new icon app, would it be added retroactively to all current themes?
[Android Themes] ThaPHLASH:
Word up...

let me explain the update process,

I take all the request like the ones you've made and put them in my todo folder...

Then every 3-4 months i go in a redraw phase, which means i redraw all the new icons in vector...

Then, i add the new ones to all the styles i have, for example, the next update that i started a few months ago is near completion and will add 350 icons.

These new 350 icons will be port to all 200 icon styles... so for a quick calculation this means a 70,000 icon addition... in 2 sizes so thats basically 140,000 icons to be added. You can understand the time delay here because to make a mere 350 icon addition for me this actually means 140,000 icons.

Then all customers can download the updates through their account on my site.

That's a lot of icons, and means im working on this project FULL time.

ps: a book icons is in the new update :)

hope this answers some of your questions.
[Android Themes] polstein:
That sounds like a crapload of work. Glad I just get to enjoy the results :)

The case is totally different - other than the obvious difference of the microsim door on the top, the power and volume buttons were moved to the left side (if you hold it with the front facing camera at the top) and the speakers are much higher on the sides and appear slightly smaller.

Who is to say that they haven't refined the manufacturing methods while they were retooling the case design? The specs are the same, but they are obviously constructed differently in a way that goes beyond simply adding radio circuitry and a new hole in the bezel.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
If its faster it is because of software tweaks. Example, honeycomb 3.1 is faster than 3.0. The stock browser in touchwiz is faster and has no typing lag, compared to the stock honeycomb one. So maybe Samsung made some tweaks of their own in the lte version or perhaps Google gave them access to some bug fixes.
