Get yourself a stock rom and mess with it, ROOT IT! do anything to it and then upload it, you learn more by doing than you do by reading my friend.

Where would I buy a suffcient machine to run Ubuntu for developing.

I cant seem to find a machine that comes with Ubuntu pre-installed.

I had a VERY old toshiba with a quad-core 2.66 GHz proccessor and only 37 Gigabytes of Hard Drive space(before i had dual-booted Win-XP and Ubuntu 11.04), so i couldnt do a lot of things.

Where could I find a good laptop or desktop to develop on?

HD2, Android, SD, Magldr, clockworkmod and tytung question

I have an HD2 (T-Mobile USA 1GB version).

Current Setup:

HDSPL3

magldr 1.13 (auto booting Android from SD)

Windows Mobile 7 in NAND married to the 7.3 GB WM7 partition of a 16 GB SD Card

[SD/MAGDLR] MccMBoxmaX GS V9 Gingerbread 2.3.3[Sense 2.1+3.0]3D Effect 720p insalled in a 7.3 GB FAT32 Partition on the SD Card.

I am having trouble with this build properly connecting to my bluetooth enabled car (Audi RNS-E system).

Mccm recommended that I try the tytung R5 kernel.

Rom Master is cooked into this build.

I updated Rom Master to the latest free version and selected Install ClockWorkMod.

Rom Manager said that ClockWorkMod was successfully installed.

However when I select Ad Recover in magldr I get a "No Boot Source" error message.

I need clockworkmod to install the new kernel.

How do I get clockworkmod working in the this configuration (preferable) or how do I install a tytung kernel manually?

I have asked this question in several forums as well as ClockWorkMods own website without an answer.

Please help????

Can you please help me or direct me where to find an answer

My main question is, what tool do you use to THEME roms, like the works of Sergio76 or many others, and i want to run it in windows, any possible way? and when theming, would I be able to see a preview of it like that in UOT Kitchen?

And I read your post Number 54 about the HTC kitchen. I started that, haven't finished because again i hate to have to work off of Ubuntu when I could just use my PC with like 50 roms downloaded and "portable." but again main question is, how do i THEME it like Sergio does, i go after him because he does work for the HD2 i own, and am completely amazed,

Ok, i think i got it. if i upgrade to v5.7 from v5.6 without flashing boot.img it should work, provided that it is the same custom rom. nonetheless, will backup everything using titanium first before trying. will do it most likely today. thanks all. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] brainard52:
boot.img is the kernel. It's suggested that you always flash the kernel provided in each release.

Also, to clarify a bit: CM9 is based on of ICS, while CM10 is based on JB. There are differences between the two that would require a full wipe (If I understand it.) They're basically entirely different ROMs, though one is an update to the other. If your 5.7 is based on the code of 5.6, you'll be just fine with clearing just Cache and Davlik Cache.

Problems flashing Eclipse 2.3

I have a droid x2 with the 2.3.5 update.

The phone is rooted and has bootstrap.

I installed the recovery then I chose the next option below it.

When I go to the bootstrap boot up, I back up my "files", then I wiped the data, the cache and the Davlik.

I flashed eclipse and got the E:294.

I did not sbf prior to receiving my 2.3.5 update.

It didn't seem necessary.

I used magic to root the phone.

Hi,

Your post have managed to make me wanted to root my S3 ... i have used the CFroot-SGS3v6 for this with Odin v3.4 and it works straight away. previously when on 4.0.4 i did not root it hence i do not have SuperSU before. Your problem is attributed to SuperSU being inside before it was rooted. As you have found out, a simple reinstall sometimes will do the trick.

So I performed the search for my question five different ways and no results showed up, so here's my question since I can't post in the developer's board yet.

I just flashed my HTC Rezound to CM9 (kryptik06's build). Everything mostly worked, except for wi-fi, still no go on that. Within 24 hours, suddenly my phone defaulted to GSM for network preferences for who knows why. No matter how many times I set it back to LTE/CDMA, it went right back to GSM. So once again, I followed the prompts:

Wiped dalvik-cache

wiped cache

wiped data

factory reset

installed CM9

installed gapps

I did run into the "parsing" error, but I did manually execute fastboot reset through SDK tools

Still no wi-fi after a reflash. No one else appears to have this issue on this ROM. What am I doing wrong? Did I use a bad version of vigor/amon-ra or something?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Pirateghost:
I'm not familiar with that device but I know on a lot of the newer HTC devices you are required to flash the boot.IMG separately. Why don't you ask in the Q&A section in the rezound forum?

HTC Sensation help w. fastboot USB.

Hey guys, long-time lurker, first-time poster.

I have an HTC Sensation 4G on T-Mobile USA. Unfortunately, whilst attempting to install a custom ROM, I managed to get it stuck in a state where it will not boot fully into Android.

It is in an S-ON state, has ClockWorkMod Touch installed (5.8 I believe), is not rooted/doesn't have SU, and for some reason, is not recognized by fastboot.exe or adb.exe on Windows 7 or Windows 8 when it is connected in Fastboot or Recovery mode.

I have tried numerous methods (drivers, attempting to flash ext4 recovery, wipe everything); all I want right now is a working device. I don't care if it's rooted or not, I just want my phone to work. Can anyone please help me? I am getting very desperate.

Please do not underestimate one's ignorance about a specific subject such as installing custom roms :confused:

So after yesterday night i have successfully rooted through the use of superoneclick i found myself in an euphoric moment and decided to go one step further.

I just decided to follow the Rom Manager walkthrough at wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/HTC_Wildfire:_Full_Update_Guide

So steps so far:

Original ROM 2.2.1

Ran superoneclick.. sucesfully rooted

Been through the above guide (rom manager)

Downloaded, rebooted

Been stuck for the last hour at recovery menu

What do i do now?

Any help would be very appretiated.

HTC Evo V 4G Stuck on hboot 1.57

HTC Evo V 4G

Relocked

Shooter XC Ship S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.57

RADIO-1.09.00.0706

OpenADSP-V02.6.0.2226.00.0217

eMMC-boot

I flashed a custom anthrax kernel to my phone and flashed MidnightRom to add some cool functionality to my aging Evo. However, I decided to sell it and buy the new Nexus 4. I reflashed the rom to stock shooter and sold it on ebay. The problem is I never checked to make sure that everything worked and sure enough I forgot to flash the stock kernel when I flashed the stock rom. Since it was still running Anthrax kernel, there were issues with the wi-fi antenna and the guy who bought it from me sent it back and I had to refund him. Now I have been in the process of trying to use an RUU to restore it to factory settings and get the original kernel back on it so I can resell it.

The problem I am currently presented with is that after running RUU on Hboot 1.57, it gives me error code 140 and says I have the wrong hboot version. Now I have a phone that has nothing but the bootloader and fastboot access via my computer. I can't access recovery or a rom. I need to either downgrade my version of hboot or find some way to completely restore my phone to factory settings. I currently have access to the SD card and fastboot via my computer. I have already tried using the update function on fastboot to flash the RUU in .zip format to my phone remotely and I get an archive read error.

Any ideas would help immensely as I have been working on this for two days now. If there is any more information you need feel free to ask. Thanks in advance to anybody that looks into helping me on this.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tachyonknight:
I have already obtained the newest RUU and it says that my version of HBoot (1.57) is not supported by the RUU. Here is the current status of my situation.

I would like to flash a recovery but I can't because I relocked my bootloader during the RUU process.

I cannot unlock my bootloader again because the identifier token isn't recognized by HTC.

I cannot get S-Off because I have no recovery and thus no adb access.

At this point I don't even know what my options are as far as getting this phone back to working condition. If I could just downgrade my hboot and get the RUU to work, all my problems would be solved.

Custom ROM install n00b question

Hi all,

I was getting tired of my stock SE Xperia Mini Pro (mango), so after a lot of reading I decided to install FreeXperia Extended ROM from M66B here on XDA. Thank you CM team, FXP, and M66B for making this all happen!

I'm kind of new with installing custom ROM's, so please bear with me.

So, I unlocked my phone, downloaded the latest CM10 based Kernel, Modules, and ROM from www_faircode_eu/freexperia/ and gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip from goo.im. I flashed the Kernel via fastboot and the ROM and gapps via CWM Recovery (+ wipe data/cache). My phone is running Jellybeenz now, yay!

But, I'm not quite sure what to do with the modules. I have not flashed them yet, but should I? Does the phone run better with it or does it just add the ability to do extra stuff like mounting USB, CIFS etc?

Thanks for any help!

[edit] Stupid me. The answer is on M66B's page. "The modules should be flashed with CWM and can be used without the extended kernel"...

Rooting a SHARP-ADS1 running Android Version 2.2.2

Well I hate to be a complete noob, but I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to rooting devices and I've been looking around the forums and web for about two and a half hours prior to this post and I haven't found anything that was detailed enough, I've found general instructions but they all assumed, for instance, that I knew how to use the Android SDK, or run a debugging console with it. And I really just need someone to walk me through it, step by step, in detail, what I need to do to root my phone without messing anything up. I've downloaded the phone drivers for my PC and the Android SDK and also SuperOneClick version 2.3.3 and I don't know what to do from here.
