[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lulu_brfc:
I was wondering if anyone could help me.

I am trying to do some development work on Android, but unfortunately my X10 won't be recognised properly by my laptop (Dell / Vista).

All the other drivers have installed properly, apart from "X10i SEMC HSUSB Driver".

In my Device Manager it always has the warning symbol. If I update driver with any of 5? different versions I have downloaded from similar threads on this site.

Again, have tried Sony Ericsson's : GG, Update Centre and PC Companion..but nothing.

It's really starting to become hopeless!

Any ideas?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofir786:
Try the drivers from SE dev website for x10 here: http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wportal/devworld/downloads/download/dw-x10drivers?cc=gb&lc=en
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silveraero:
Did you install PC Companion or SEUS? It will work correctly if you install one of them then let Windows check for update of drivers.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofir786:
Hes stated hes installed pc companion and had no luxk
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] selaludiam:
in my computer this driver doesn't function, or this driver is not for x10

i have installed both of that, but isn't function

i have installed but this driver not function
[Continuum General] Tarheel487:
I'm a noob when it comes to smartphones and android. My wife got this Continuum for free for me, and well I wish I would of known about it. I got this Friday and not knowing anything about Android, I thought I got a good deal, but soon realized after reading several forums up here there isn't going to be an official 2.2 release, but thanks to the kind folks here, there is a leaked version.

To my question, and I guess it's just me not being use to it, and trying to learn everything in a day, it's just not sticking. I would definitely want to upgrade to 2.2, but I'm lost. I understand the concept of it all, but like I said I'm lost. I haven't tried it yet, but do you have to root your phone first? Before you even attempt the update. I understand the concept of rooting a phone it basically gives you complete control over it, but is their a beginners guide?I guess I'm just lost although the leak was posted with great instructions it seems like a foreign language to a noob like me. Any help would be appreciated.

[Continuum General] Nuckin:
I was like you a week ago, lost, afraid, overwhelmed with information. But then, I found the search bar and now my phone has 2.2 on it. I don't really remember what happened, musta blacked out. Oh well... good luck!
[Continuum General] Txwolf1980:
Check out www.addictivetips.com/mobile and search rooting continuum. For that matter, read a lot from that site. It helped me a ton, and they put it in layman's terms
[Continuum General] Tarheel487:
I got it running on my first try. It really isn't too hard once you grasp it. Thanks for all the help offered. And especially a big thanks to the people who brought 2.2 to the Continuum. At least it's not so dead after all. My Rom from pastorbennett runs perfect. I do have another question...would it be safe to download the My Verizon app. Even though it's a little aggravating, I do like being able to keep up with my usage, but if it's not advised I'll stay away from it.
[Continuum General] jldroidfan79:
I've been reading through a lot of the threads for loading Froyo onto my continuum, but am running into an issue that I have not been able to get past (or maybe I am being impatient).

I have the phone in debugging mode (only way Odin seems to pick it up)

I click the PDA button

Load the tar file

Click start

The process seems to begin, but gets hung up on SetupConnection and does not proceed from there.

Is there something I am missing? Not doing right?

This is my first Android phone and am still learning the terminology and so on. Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT - Figured out how to put the phone in download mode, everything moved right along. /facepalm

[Continuum General] Moon Shadow - NM:
Hey, it's good to see users answering their own questions! I have done that I can't guess how many times... I look in the mirror and tell myself. Did you REALLY RTFM? :D

I'm glad you posted your fix. That might help others that read the thread. I guess it's a pet peeve of mine when I see a post that says, "Nevermind, I figured it out." And doesn't explain what they figured out, and how they did it... I'm just sayin'... Ya know! :rolleyes:

Agreed, Moon Shadow.I've done several dozen searches, and clicked on promising links to someone who is having the same issue. The only resolution I see is "I got it". Which makes the search useless.

I'd love a nice step by step... but hey, just a list of files that will do this would be great. I had a dual boot setup, but when I updated to rc1 it rooted my Nook and I want emmc to stay stock.

can it be done???//

Hi,

I'm looking for the APK that asks me the good pattern to unlock my droid after I wake it up from screen off ?

could you please link me ?!
[Android Apps and Games] ericcarboni:
Not sure but I think what you're talking about is in the settings. You can go to security and set a lock pattern. You don't necessarily need a separate lock screen app if you just want a pattern.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexschipper:
Just updated from 7712 to 7720 rtm. However, I hadn't noticed the trick of adding additional languages through a registry editor. Too late for that I guess.

Does anyone know if I can use the LG MFG app for this, and if so what values to add?

If not, is there a way to downgrade back to NoDo?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derausgewanderte:
the original article says that registry cannot be edited on Mango, which we know isn't entirely true, definitely not for LG users. with the registry keys given in the post it should be possible to add your favorite language and connect the device to Zune client and hope for a language update. Hit or miss of course at this point nobody has tried this yet and it could screw up a working phone.

you can downgrade to NoDo if you have a backup. If you followed the threads here to upgrade to 7720 then you should have a backup of a NoDo restore point. You just copy that into your

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update folder so that it looks something like this with your device ID

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update\f52e4324 - 18eO0804 - 7918db00 - d63473cf

the Zune client should then see the restore point when you connect the phone and go to Settings/Phone/Update. the restore point should be bottom right.

also, you may want to put a question mark on the subject title. people will be disappointed to find that this is not a guide on how to but just a question ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Jye75:
Very nice, clean guide. Will try it out when I get home.
[HTC EVO 3D] zedomax:
nice guide

nice guide but you don't have to backup any apps as apps aren't touched when rooting, see this guide also: http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-3d-hacks/how-to-root-htc-evo-3d/
[HTC EVO 3D] bk718:
yes.. and this is understood when the OP wrote:
[HTC EVO 3D] djR3Z:
Hey Max,

Yes you're right. I just find it beneficial to do the quick temp root to back everything up in case anything goes wrong. I also always feel having a clean slate is the best way to go. Because of that, you'd need to backup prior to rooting. Thanks for the feedback and nice work on your site.

[HTC EVO 3D] supahero00:
Yeah. I even hard reset my phone and put it back to s-on. (had s-off but my internet failed b4 the clock work mod was installed) so I thought that was the problem but I guess not. I've only gotten 2 beta keys so far. Should I try another internet browser or something? Racking my brain on what the problem is.
[HTC EVO 3D] bk718:
before u ran revolutionary did u make sure the fastboot was not checked?
[HTC EVO 3D] djR3Z:
Try doing another factory reset on your phone, turning fastboot off, and running it again. These auto-roots are sometimes finicky.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Added a "Notes" section to the guide that addresses this and any other issues that come up.

HBoot 1.5

Just got a new EVO 3D and going to try this in the next few days. Did a full power off, and booted into recovery. I was surprised to see I have HBoot 1.3.

Does the OTA update to 1.5? The phone is asking for the update but I won't be taking it. For some I thought the newer phones would ship with 1.5. Based on the way everyone talks about 1.5 in other threads, I expected all new phones to have 1.5. But it seems that is untrue as I just got mine 12/8/11.
[HTC EVO 3D] KB112:
Yeah, do not accept the OTA or you'll definitely be on 1.5 hboot. You got real lucky, must have been a unit sitting on a shelf for a while. I got mine in late September and was lucky to get 1.40 hboot.
[HTC EVO 3D] hunter82i:
Thats what I was thinking. Version of Hboot says May 2011 if I remember right. I guess the $49 dollar deal cleared some inventory for Sprint and I got one from the bottom of the pile!
[HTC EVO 3D] spencelk:
I hope they come out wit a root method soon I woulda thought that the latest was rooted so I stupidly updated.... just got mine like the a week ago....
[HTC EVO 3D] toben7l:
in the same boat - had to swap due to a smashed phone, got one with the 1.50hboot. i can't even unlock it using the htcdev site, errors out every time (with no error, heh). oh well. not even using the phone for cell service now, just want to use it as a multimedia device and a camera. patience will pay off, hopefully
[HTC EVO 3D] drcz_92:
You cant unlocked it with htcdev method? Hboot 1.5 ?

Because i cant either ..
[HTC EVO 3D] HTCRALEIGHFAN:
bout to pull my 3d out of the attic and blow the dust off it and activate it again.

is this the only current method to root my 3d?

is there a better method?

[HTC EVO 3D] phaze3131:
same

Same, I can't do it from the htc dev site either, I have the correct unlock.bin but nothing happens once the command is run.

This sucks :(
[HTC EVO 3D] fonix36:
what can one do if the cwm doesnt stick after rom.

i flashed a rom and its working well.

but when i tried getting back in clockwork recovery i get the triagle and does nothing.﻿

do i reallly have to go to the computer and manually boot clockwork every time?

[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
If my phone is Hboot 1.4, is this still the most current method for s-off and rooting? Can I just replace TWRP 1.1 in the OP with the newer TWRP 2.0?
[HTC EVO 3D] fins71:
Some people have reported wiping and other issues with twrp 2.0. I would either use twrp 1.1.1 or use cwm 5.0.2.0. I switched to using cwm. Was having issues with backups using twrp. Good luck.
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
But if I did want to use 2.0, can I still use the same procedure in the OP?
[HTC EVO 3D] fins71:
It should be the same. I just used cwm at first, and flashed twrp right after thru bootloader. Real easy that way. I have hboot 1.4 and used revolutionary method.
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
Gotcha...thank you.
[HTC EVO 3D] fins71:
No problem. Was just easier to let the revolution method install cwm for me. Twrp thru bootloader is easiest option. Good luck .

So after i do tha way u say to root my phone then how can I install a custom ROM?
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
Should I use the r12 windows installer for Android SDK as stated in the OP or do I use the more recent r16 windows installer?
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
If your downloading ADB from the site you snag the exe one for windows the recommended one ...
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
I'm downloading it from this site:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Yes that is it r16 windows installer exe one is the one you need :D

Also make sure you have latest java JDK installed adb won't install if you don't have lates java.... http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u2-download-1377129.html

Java SE Development Kit 7u2 this is what you need the x86 one :D

What hboot are you hboot 1.5 users need to use HTC DEV METHOD :D
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
So I need this Java JDK on my Windows 7 machine right?

"jdk-7u2-windows-i586.exe"

I'm on Hboot 1.4.

---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------

As far as the latest HTC Sync goes, I downloaded the "HTC Driver Pack" in the OP. Is that what you're talking about?
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Lucky you have 1.4 lol I have 1.5

Ya you need that one......

Just follow the rest of the guide I know that you just need java jdk installed to get adb to install and run

You don't need he htc syn drivers unless the guide says so....
[HTC EVO 3D] bso44:
Gotcha....thanks for the info.

Rooting hboot 1.30

I'll be rooting a 3d with hboot 1.30 and had a few questions before proceeding, will this method work for that version? Which hboot versions are out there? From my reading I gathered that hboot 1.30 is an older version. Is there a way to get back to s-on if needed? I have an og evo that I rooted with unrevoked that I believe I am able to put s-on back if needed. I wanted to know if that was possible on the 3d as well. TIA and for the hard work put into this guide.

On a side note, I also noticed that the phone is running 2.3.3, what is the latest sprint released version? I know I am probably asking this stuff in the wrong section so please take it easy on me, just figured I'd ask those who have knowledge about this here instead of making several posts in different sections. Thanks.

This happened to me too. In my case I deleted the unlock code ,then downloaded it again and it worked keep in mind I did thus 5 times .

It did not ask me to install a recovery and when I hold down the power and volume down key, it acts like it is checking the PG86IMG.zip file but aborts.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC EVO 3D] bk718:
clockworkmod is what most likely failed... can u confirm in hboot that ur version is 1.40.1000 and it says revolutionary S-OFF now??

if so, go ahead and put the PG86IMG.zip on the root of your SD card... select yes to the Parsing update.. and go from there..
[HTC EVO 3D] Defpdp:
Yes it is 1.40.1000 & S-OFF

It acts like it attempts the update but then it craps out, I did have it moved over to the root of the SD card.. Is it possible there is something wrong with the .zip I put on there? I did download it from the source listed here.

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] bk718:
you did rename the file once u downloaded it to just PG86IMG right?.. without the .zip.

if so and it didn't work.. delete the PG86IMG.zip file.. redownload it.. and try it again..
[HTC EVO 3D] Jye75:
One more question, my profile will not update, so I followed the instructions to input my username as written down. Thing is, it was already populated with the correct username, so when I put it in and try to commit changes, it tells me no changes were made and still won't let me update the profile. Any ideas?

Edit: Disregard, all I had to do was click the "restore" button instead and it rebooted and went through the handsfree activation again. This time it let me update the profile. Go figure.
[HTC EVO 3D] djR3Z:
Did you hit restore at the same screen where it showed your User Name?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jye75:
Yeah, after you go to "Edit", the two button choices at the bottom are "Commit" and "Restore" (or something close to that). I did the "restore" one because "commit" wouldn't take since no changes were made. It rebooted itself and everything worked as it should from there.
[HTC EVO 3D] Defpdp:
I had to redownload the PG86IMG.zip several times before it finally took it which was odd. It did end up working, thanks for your help.

I should not accept any firmware updates correct? I did see a few for HTC Watch, etc that were first applied when I purchased the phone.
