There is a video how to downgrade the Dinc back to 2.1 by applefanatics
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
You take the PB31IMG.zip and the su.zip and place them on your sd card in no folders. Boot into hboot and wait a couple secs. It will find the PB31IMG.zip and prompt you to hit volume up to flash it. Once thats done then select recovery from hboot and select install zip from sd and select the su.zip. Answer yes when prompted to install. After it has finished reboot your phone and install thr superuser app from the market. Thats it then your fully rooted.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celfon:
Thanks for your help again.

I hit volume up to flash and within about a second it shows update complete and asks to reboot device. I've tried both ways Yes and No, with No continuing on and doing the su.zip as instructed. It doesn't seem to do anything either way. How long should the PB31IMG take to flash?

Hi all, I would appreciate if I could help muchisisisimo to flash my phone by installing cualkier rom, what happens is that through fastboot not let me, the factory had the android rom 2.2.1 I could only root with the gingerbread and probe because I had installed a terminal emulator and applied the "su" and I appeared #, but over the day you install more applications and suddenly told me that mistake and its segmentation fail, then found a file and copy SAPPIMG.ZIP my SD card and let it boot by HBOOT and all alone and let me install it as makes all the cel, nomas had the recovery before and I'm 3e and 2e and the recovery usually begins with the green screen of my touch 3g and go to configure my phone with an account before entering the menu, and I can not connect while having the internet and MMS settings APN, I get this message "It is possible that this is a temporary problem or is not provided SIM card for data services.

I have one confusion, Do I have to update hboot prior to flash any radio or not ?

I have HTC Desire S

Hboot 6.98.1002

Radio 3805.06.02.03_M

Kernel Tiamat 1.1.3

ROM: MIUI 1.9.16

Can i Update this radio?http://hotfile.com/dl/129621795/c522912/PG88IMG-3821.08.00.24.M.zip.html for my DESIRE S or NOT? Please tell me, sometime i have call quality(Sound) problem with MIUI 1.9.16 with Tiamat Kernel 1.1.3, so also tell me updating radio solves that issue or not?
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
You don't need to update the hboot to flash radio.
[HTC Desire S] blindndumb:
Yes , You can update to PG88IMG-3821.08.00.24.M and You dont need to update hboot for this.
[HTC Desire S] zeekiz:
Sorry OP, I just read the second part of your post, sound quality can be affected by the ROM but mainly the kernel, radios are mainly there for determining radio properties.

Don't forget though before you flash the radio to wipe the cache and wipe the dalvik cache, just to be safe and ensure you don't run into any problems.
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
Hey, the radio won't fix anything. I am 100% sure of that. It may cause problems. My advice - don't mess with the RADIO. It's risky business. No way to recover from a bad radio flash.

Hello friend, Have u ever faced call problems with MIUI? I like that ROM but Call sound is disturbed always........today i am back to STOCK ROM....that has no problems.

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

Ya you are right......I was thinking about upgrading my radio as last possibility to get good call sound quality in MIUI.....and today downloaded radio and from the help of this forum, Upgraded successfully. Yesterday I also have updated Tiamat Kernel 1.1.3 But at last MIUI has same issue.So I am tired of my best ROM MIUI because of call qualiy issue so going back to Stock HTC ROM which has no problems. Thank You
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
No, the call sound is just fine. It's tooooo loud, that's all. Set it to half, and it's perfect. Also, its a kernel issue, not Rom. I advice you to stick with MIUI. It's just great.

Hello, ive made a theme in uot.kitchen for my milestone A853. Im using cm7 rc14 mod on my phone, GOT rom. What should i do in the UPLOADING layer??? Plz help.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] adamz667:
Set all options like on this pic:

...then copy your favoured Theme Chooser apk from Milestone (you can find it in /system/app folder, eg. Androidian.apk) to your computer, click on "Select File" button and choose apk with theme for Theme Chooser. Go to the Summary section and submit your work to kitchen.

When it will be done, download update zip with your custom theme, unpack it and in /system/app folder you will find your apk for Theme Chooser (it should be named as eg. UOTAndroidian.apk). Copy it to your phone and install like normal app. Open Theme Chooser, choose your newly created theme and reboot phone. That's all.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gigacross:
Hi XDA Devs & Members,

I'm a new member, and I've spent hours scouring over the forum to my answers but I'm still slightly confused.

I'm currently using Galaxy SII, hence the post in this forum under Q&A

Firmware:

Android: 2.3.4

Baseband: XXKH3

Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 root@DELL103#2

Build number: Gingerbread.XXKH3

I originally wanted to debrand the vodafail branding, and flashed the firmware of XXKH3 which is the "Frankenstein version" according to here

Then I messed up my sms by pressing the 'update' button in *#*#4636#*#* phone information menu which is another story, but I fixed that rooting the phone using Odin and SuperOneClick.

So basically, what I want now is to go back to basic, don't use one of those frankenstein firmwares, but a stock one, stay as close to stock as possible, root the phone, I know CF-Root has a made a post on this, but now that I've already rooted my phone using Odin, I don't know how to go back.

Also, I've been searching, but I haven't been able to find a comprehensive guide/information regarding how to understand the phone. I understand the individual parts, i.e. what rooting does, what roms are, what are firmwares, but I'm not able to put them together to give me a holistic understanding of the phone. Is there something I can read to understand this?

Thanks in advance. This is a great forum!

=====Added Questions=====

Also, does the firmware code represent anything? I.e. KE7, KG8 and so on...

How do I find out which is the latest firmware?

Who develops these firmwares?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gigacross:
Thanks JJe!

I have another quick question, does factory reset reverts the phone back to original settings with the folders and everything else the same? I may be paranoid, I executed busybox installer multiple times and the folders look like a mess when I connect the USB to share files. All the additional folders that came with rooting and TitaniumBackup and other apps made the entire phone look like a mess. Is it worth doing a factory reset?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Factory resets reverts to the last firmware installed wiping phone and user apps . Out of the box setup then required .

[LG Optimus 2x] eyesno:
So I'd been using CM7 for quite some time and recently broke things horribly when I tried to use ROM Manager to check for the latest nightlies. It hosed my phone and left me in a constantly rebooting logo state. I was able to fix that by wiping everything and rebooting but then decided, "Hey - why not get the latest nightly?". So I downloaded the latest nightly and the latest nightly failed to install. It asserted on failing to find p990 or something.

So I wasn't sure what to do at that point. If the nightly didn't work anymore, maybe I'd just try to install a recovery image so I took out the SD card and copied the img file to it and put it back in. I put the battery back in and at this point the phone wouldn't come to life. Not a spark. I tried plugging it into the wall, a USB port, the system reset... nothing. No life at all.

Am I totally borked or is there any hope here? :mad:

Update: I managed to get into the S/W Update screen (battery out while plugging into the USB port) but I can't get OneClick to re-flash because it won't recognize the USB device).
[LG Optimus 2x] droweed:
if your using windows, goto device manager, while phone is plugged in, look at the device list, select lg something(your phone), then uninstall that profile, then plug your phone again, it will ask for drivers etc. proceed with installation, then it'll be ok again..
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
You have a P999, not a P990, hence the assert check fail.

With that in mind, you will need to NVFlash over a new recovery, then you can boot into it and fix the phone. Look in the G2X development forum and grab one + some instructions.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Rom manager is supposed to auto detect what he has tho and give him rom results based on his device.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
On mine ROM Manager gives me a bunch of options when first picking a recovery, if he picked P990 there...
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Yeah it asks what device u have, think there is about 4 to choose from
[LG Optimus 2x] eyesno:
Yep. It was an incorrect ROM selection. I was able to breath life back into it by reflashing it to a stock image and then the proper Cyanogen.

As for the ROM Manager - the biggest problem with using that is that it rebooted the phone and left me looping on the animation. It broke me in the first place. Maybe a bug with the LG G2X version?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylesnav:
I recently had my charger break down me so I haven't used my TF in over a month. I finally got around to ordering a new charger, while I was at it I downloaded the newest version of Revolver (3.2) and parts. I also used parts to install Chesmyn v20 and went ahead and flashed that. Then I logged back in my TF and bought SetCPU (as you can see I am feeling generous :P) and set my cpu to max which was 1.68 or something or other. Everytime I try to overclock my TF past 1.0ghz it just freezes up. I have it set to interactive and I just really wanna overclock! I have tryed flashing to Chesmyn v13 and still no beans! It just freezes! So is there any reason for this?

Lastly, is there any support for Netflix or Hulu with Revolver yet? I saw a post about it working in stock ROMS as of August, I followed through to the download but the APK doesnt seem to wanna work. So maybe someone could get e a valid link. :)

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 10:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

UPDATE!

I set SetCPU to 1.3336ghz and it has been running fine for the past 5 minutes O.o

Do I need to up my voltages as I would need to with overclocking my PC?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
the crashing is proboby due to an imperfect chip and theres bothing you can really do about it. Try a factory reset and a reflash but it might not do ypu any good.

I've tried Virtuous until version 1.1.3, then I tried Revolution HD and Leedroid. I have even tried the Bliss 3.5 Sense port and it was very nice and stable even though there were some bugs to iron out. Now I'm back to Virtuous and the 2.0.1 XE is stunning. Probably the best one I've tried so far, just need to check the battery performance. But I would guess all ROM's are fairly equal, some are better in one area and some are better in another, just need to choose one that suits you the best or just try until you find the best one I guess :)
[HTC Sensation] dr.m0x:
Bulletproof while not getting many mentions in most of these threads has awesome tweaks other roms lack. Like the option to customise the "personalise" button, and the option to make the app draw scrolling instead of paged. There are more tweaks than that and its worth a look.

Basically romanbb has made the Sense equivalent of cmparts.

Still cm7 is faster than flies on **** on this phone but its a little buggy for some people at present. Its good enough as a daily driver on 4g Sensation phones, most of the issues are related to calls dropping on 3g units.

First you have to choose between a sense rom or a no-sense rom.

[HTC Sensation] antijesse:
CM7 or something with sense... like stock.
[HTC Sensation] j0hnnyn:
Android Revolution HD is also very stable. On stock rom, Sense would restart on me atleast 3 times a day. With ARHD, Sense has not once yet restarted on me. Granted I've been running ARHD for about 2 days now, but this time span still shows very much improvement over stock rom.
[HTC Sensation] Dandle:
I can only comment on what I have used which was LeedDroids rom at first for a couple of weeks then I tried Bulletproof. BP is so much quicker and had alot less stuff (able to remove stock apps with bloater too) that I didn't use with many more unique tweaks that were useful for me. Romanbb has made a fantastic rom, its well worth a try.

It's so funny how everyone I ever read always says the same thing: "This ROM is amazing, outstanding, incredible, fantastic, orgasmic.... I just need to check the battery performance."

Really? Are you friggen serious? Am I the only one in the world who's ROM stamp of approval is significantly based on - among other things - that ROMs ability to deliver strong battery performance???

Then of course there are the complete nobs out there who base their approval of ROMs on absolutely nothing but a quadrant benchmark score.....
[HTC Sensation] Jimx2:
CM7 was pretty stable, and was the fastest Rom I've tried on the Sensation.. I loved it on my old phone, but I actually missed the features on Sense, so I went back to InsertCoin which, to me is the best sense rom..

While I, myself, would not consider anything crap that I can't do (being a chef), your comments seem to be a "general" consensus. For me battery life and performance are key. there are a lot of ROM's but there still seem to be a heap of bugs and gaps across all ROM's. Bluletooth issues, lock ups, unprompted restarts - you name it. I jumped at the chance to root my HD2 because most of the ROM's were very stable and made the phone better (from what I remember). I am not seeing the same confidence and initial reliability from what I am reading. I will continue to monitor comments before I take the plunge.
