my phone is stuck at flashing SLB what bootloader should i use?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonVito2020:
EZbase v3.0 downloads and instructions

For GB - flash GB bootloader and for Froyo, use the froyo boot loader and then flash the custom rom saved in ur sd via cwm.

Here is another link for a odin flashable custom rom GingerReal. Its a 2.3.4 GB.

Hi i just buy an htc status (chacha) brand new for $270, but digitizer has dead zones, i can't use the back soft key and some parts of the screen. My very big problem, I'm from Ecuador here theres not tech support for htc, i call htc and only solution was to send the phone to USA (my warranty is valid thru oct. 2012), but i already pay for the unlock code and the importing fees (almost $80), so send it back to USA and bring it back again to Ecuador will be around $130 more at least. So this phone will cost me around $480! My only solution is to replace the digitizer by myself, i try to search some disassembly video but i can't find any. Anyone has take apart this model of htc? plz I'm desperate. Hope some suggestion or if you have some service manual will appreciate.

Thanks a lot...
[HTC ChaCha] iDAREK:
this is to new model, so it will be hard to find videos and parts. I think, you need to look some cheap or for spare chacha on auctions and do from 2 phones one working.
[HTC ChaCha] janocool:
Well i find the digitizer in ebay, but no luck with the manual or video
[HTC ChaCha] ABR2704:
I understand your problem and realise you need to do something yourself - however I have been repairing screens all my life and HTC are the hardest. The HTC CHACHA is a delicate phone - yes you can replace the digitizer but this is a long and troublesome path you are taking.

The best way I would recommend is check if Ecuador has any mobile repair shops and get them to do it (but go in person - no posting). If you can't find one that can fix within your range - SENDING TO THE U.S.A IS THE ONLY WAY (UNLESS YOU ASK HTC IF YOU CAN SEND IT TO A CLOSER SUPPORTED COUNTRY).

If you are to attempt it yourself expect no tutorials for another five months or so and even then it's too dangerous.
[HTC ChaCha] janocool:
Thanks for the advice, you right htc is hard to fix. But i have good news the digitizer is working, i dont know what happen, maybe was the charger, do you think was that? I used one from motorola and one from samsung, but since the phone drains the batery i full charge with the cable supplied by htc now this thing is working again. I never will use other charger. Again thanks

Just wondering...have a nexuss from att. Rooted and cwm 3 installed. What is the button combo to get into recovery and is it OK to just flash any rom now?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emhalwis:
Download rom manager to update you cwm. From rom manager reboot into recovery or turn off you phone, then back on while holding volume + button. You should boot into recovery
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylercarter:
So can I install any rom though?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emhalwis:
Yep. Don't forget to wipe date/ cache and dalvik cache when installing new rom. It beats getting stuck at Google logo trying to figure out why the phone isn't booting.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tylercarter:
Cool. Any suggestions on what roms are good?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emhalwis:
Personally. I like miui , but there are a lot of good roms. Cyanogen has many features. Many of them are fast. But to me, nothing beats miui in terms of themes and simplicity.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickert0n:
Super osr is the best rom
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skarayala:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saranyan:
NSCollab if you want many features, Its stable and fast. If you want speed, great battery life with minimum features get Oxygen, It's really good.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericshmerick:
For me, it's a tossup between Oxygen 2.2.2 and MIUI (Brainmaster).

Oxygen is no-nonsense speed and MIUI is like a brand new phone.

I'm currently alternating between the two and will probably stay with MIUI until Ice Cream comes out.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ab.grafix:
MIUI - for a unique experience

CM7 - For soo many features and speed.

Oxygen/SuperOsr for Stock with Speed and battery.

[Motorola Droid X2] chattguy:
Droid X2, preinstalled with 2.3.3 The phone belongs to a dear friend, and I've screwed it up apparently. I finally got it rooted via Visionary this morning, remarkably easy once I took the time to actually read. Quick and painless flash of Eclipse 0.5, and then onto apps, mods and 'pretties'. Well the last thing I tried to do before turning it back over to its owner, I tried to change the font. Apparently this is where I went wrong. It's been a soft brick ever since. It will load the "M Dual Core" screen, and that is absolutely it. I can navigate into recovery but whatever Nandroid I had created isn't showing up there. Please tell me there's something I can do, I've tried SBFand whatever, but I'm sure I'm not doing it right. I'd be willing to sling a few bucks your way if you were able to help get remedied. Thanks in advance. We can do text chat, or voice. I'll be home from work around 9pm Central Time. Thanks so much.
[Motorola Droid X2] 3UR0TR45H:
If you created a nandroid, you might not be able to find it because Eclipse 5 swaps the sd cards. Try again and you may find it in the opposite directory.

If you ate trying to this thru stock recovery (holding buttons when booting) then you won't be able to restore from there. At this point our only option is BSR, the thing you used to flash eclipse. To get there, power the phone off and then plug it into a wall charger. If it loads, you can do a wipe or restore from there.

You might also be able to wipe data from stock recovery.

Sent from my DROID X2
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
What worries me is that I have noticed that when I flash eclipse after a data wipe it seems as though I have to go use system recovery app and press install recovery first again before I can get BSR to show up again with off phone plugged in. Hope this isn't what happen to OP or else sbf is only option.

And if u r sbf make sure on ur phone u r using power and vol up to get where u need to be to sbf. And plug phone into computer AFTER opening rsdlite.
[Motorola Droid X2] EvilTim:
There is an app that works to root 2.3.3 on the x2 without a pc?

Edit: everything I could find easily on that visionary app says it only works on 1.7 firmware and under, and all the posts are over a year old. Not sure how he got this to work for him
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
I was wondering exactly same thing. If yes OP needs to post a link ASAP for testing and confirmation immediately
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
I think that visionary root app is what may have him in a bind at the moment... He definitely needs to post where he got it and what he read to lead him to believe it would work... His only option, IMHO, is to sbf and go from there....
[Motorola Droid X2] EvilTim:
Oh c'mon, quit shamelessly plugging your sbf thread.

All joking aside you're probably right
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
LOL! What you want me to post the whole tutorial for the guy here??? But can you really blame me??? I have become a full believer in SBF'ing for any issue I run into tho...
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
If "system recovery" is installed and "recovery mode" has been set(if only once) then a "battery pull" and a "plugging in" of the charger will trigger BSR. But not if "charge mode" was last cmd exec.

Batt pull may screw up dates when restoring, so it is best to set recov. mode each time needed.
[Motorola Droid X2] chattguy:
Yeah, no sleep for 3 days, that's why I said that. I meant to say, the Pete Souza Method. :) But yeah I got it all fixed with DAG425's SBF Tutorial. It was probably the easiest to wrap my mind around, well thought out tutorial.

In a side note, regretfully I seem to have fallen for the X2....sorry HTC. lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] freekquency:
Turned on the wifi to a notification about an upgrade. approx 101 megs worth.

New infos

Android version

2.3.3

Sense

2.1

Kernal

2.6.35.10-gd2564fb

build #

2.47.502.7

I searched and didnt see anyone else mention this update, sorry if i missed it.

UI has changed somewhat, resolution seems bigger.. or adjusted atleast. Atleast one new camera effect, and a new setting for "auto enhance". took out several effects under camera, and added posterize and dots.

Under the notifications tab (drawn down from top menu) there are now two tabs; one for notifications one for quick settings, gps, wifi, mobile data, etc.

Update took about 10 mins to download on a slow wifi connection and almost that long to run and reboot. Atleast one program popped up with a pw issue upon restart.

ok so heres the story, its kinda long so i might include cliff notes at bottom.

i have an htc incredible, verizon branded. i was trying to flash it over to boost for my son to use, he has one of those crappy sanyo phones. i did all the reading of the "donor" phone and even installed the NV465,466,1192,1194 files onto the incredible. i was at the stage of changing the meid to the one from the donor phone. it wouldnt take the meid and i went to get up from my chair to take a break. when i stood up the phone fell and unpluged from the usb cable and hit the floor, battery came out. well when i went to plug in the phone in again i couldnt/cant get past the "htc incredible" white screen. it seems to be stuck in an endless cycle, but if i hold the power and optical center key i can get to the boot menu. nothing in the boot menu works. i have tried everything fastboot, bootloader, reboot, reboot bootloader, hboot, recovery, clear storage, simlock, factory reset and even plugging the usb cable in does nothing. i can see the phone in my devise drivers but can not get anything to load via usb. i have tried ruu, nothing special rom(dont know that it would work since its not rooted) on sd card and nothing seems to be working. is there anything i can do? or did i just make a brick?

cliff notes: flashing htc incredible to boost, phone stuck in endless "htc incredible" loop. need help

Did you try taking it back to stock via the PB31IMG Method without turning s=on, and starting from scratch, and then re-rooting it?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
i am not familiar with that with method, explain please?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
try this plz:

droidforums.net/forum/droid-incredible-hacks/95406-how-correctly-unroot-incredible.html

use the PB31IMG Method without turning s=on, ( i had stock radio and still have 7.28 )

1) download that PB31IMG.zip and drop it on the root of your sd card ( it has to be named ( PB31IMG.zip ) so make use you have file extensions showing on your PC.

2) boot to hboot and and let see the file and install it

3) used unrevoked ( remove sd card ) to aquire root again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
ok i have PB31IMG.zip installed in SD card root

1) i boot to hboot

2)if i press volume up twice i get a short message but its so damn fast i cant see it

3)nothing happens
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
the message is something to this effect:

Sd checking...

loading PB31IMG.zip

no image PB31IMG.zip diag nbh

it really comes out fast so i cant reading it
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
hang on a second, it should check the zip file then give you an option to choose up to install it
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
thank you for your help.

i noticed on the top of the phone it says "incredible XD ship S-on

is there something i must do?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
yes that is a problem, you must obtain root. and get s=off.

go here and take out your SD card, follow directions and see what happens:

http://unrevoked.com/#inc

EDIT: it will reboot twice i believe while rooting
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
ok so i down load that zip and it has instructions?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
problem is my phone only shows up on com12 and non of the other software see the phone. it just says waiting for device now
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
i am sorry, go here:

http://unrevoked.com/recovery/

and get the exe, but first you must get the android drivers, which you can get here first:

http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
thats done and still just says waiting for device. an i supposed to do anything on the phone?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
when you run the exe it will tell you what to do. try re-booting it with the cable still plugged in. i am not sure at this point since you have the drivers installed, but i guess we will see what happens
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
tried that. the exe is run on the comp and it just says waiting for device. nothing happens. am i supposed to have the phone in hboot usb plug?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
did you take the micro sd card out?

the process is automatic for the most part.

Is there a opt for recovery in hboot? we might try something different
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
yes i took sd card out. dl file ad drivers. all that works exactly as stated. but then i run the exe it just says waiting for device.

yes there is a recovery option but if i select that option the phone starts its booting cycle again
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
ok, so lets go back to the original method we talked about.

The only way to brick your phone is during flashing a radio, and something goes wrong. which i am hoping you have not done?

Back to pulling the usb cable out, and putting the SD card in and booting to hboot

pushing the down button from the first screen shot, will take you to another screen, where it will pause and then should look something like the second screenshot where it is checking the files, which will then give an opt to install.

( you can toggle the power button to get to the correct screen in first screenshot
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
yes it does that but then goes back to the first screen
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
try toggling the power button and getting to the hboot screen, then pushing the down volume key, wait a few seconds ( i assume you still have the renamed file PB31IMG..zip on the root of the SD card ? )
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
i will try this as soon as i can power the phone back on. now it seems to not want to power up. just getting a flashing red light on the front panel
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
do a battery pull, then plug it in to the charger for about 2 minutes
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
ok did the battery pull phone back on, held down volume nothing. looks like second screen you posted but it flashes and goes back to first screen. file still on sd card
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
so you got to the hboot screen like in screenshot in post 20, then you pushed the down vol key, and it went back to which screen ( screenshot and post ) ?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
i can get to hboot, like in first screen: says hboot. if i hold the volume key it does nothing. when i let go, it changes screens, like second pic but just runs script and the goes back to hboot screen
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
You renamed the file correctly, and you have you files extensions showing on your computer?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
i dont exactly know what you mean by file extensions showing? if i click properties it shows its a zip. but if i just look at it it says BP31IMG
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
i think we found the problems

1) the correct name is: PB31IMG.zip

2) You MUST have file ext on when renaming files or this will fail epically ( mentioned this in my first few postings )

in windows 7/vista:

goto computer under start orb

under organize on the upper left choose folder and search options

then under the view tab, uncheck " hide extensions for known file types "

hit ok

then look at that file on your computer that you renamed and see what it says
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
ok it shows PB31IMG.ZIP also shows same on sd card
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
get rid of the old file on the ROOT of the sd card and put the correctly named on the ROOT of the sd card. get the the hboot screen like in post 20, and toggle the down vol and see if it picks it back up, and if done correctly it will take a minute to scan and then give you an option to install the update which you will.

edit

rename, but i see that is that so try hboot again
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
tried again. deleted, recopied, hboot>hold volume key down>flashes second screen on post 20>goes back to first screen on post 20

no option to install
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
unfortunately i am out of ideas, it should have picked it up,

sorry:(
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
i think i might have bricked it :( i just wish i knew some one local that i could take it to and see if they could help me
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
according to quite a few posts the only way to brick is when you flash a radio and it messes up, and i do not think you did that?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
i did change the nv files over to boost but that was completed. i was just trying t change the meid, but it didnt take and the old meid was still in tact. i dont know that changing the nv files would brick it as it was still working fine after i changed them. it just when the battery came out and the phone reset that it started this loop thing
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
where did you get the files from and the instructions to do it?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carm01:
the only thing last thing to try is to delete all instances of that file you renamed, and download it again, rename it, and try again

the file has a md5 checksum of: 31bb1611a0fa8197d447c0438426717e ( google md5 checksum if you are not sure and how to find them )

i wish you luck and i tried my best:)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxworkz:
about 100 different places. i actually was following a tutorial from this site. it was working except the phone unplugged. the files came from the donor phone i have. nothing was downloaded from the web except for software. cdma tools, QXDM, QPST. thats about all i used. i mostly did the retrieving of files from the donor. i had just started to flash the new phone
