[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gowdemon:
I have been using my HTC G1 for the nearly one year, i actually bought the phone on ebay (used), simply because it had slide-out keyboard.

After i found about Cyanogen mods, i rooted the phone like any other geek and installed Cyanogenmod 6, but the phone was slow and it was frustrating to multi-task. Every time i has a couple of programs running on the background, if i go to the home screen, it will all go blank for a while and then load again.

Then, i decided to downgrade the to Cyanogenmod4, which is 1.6. Everything was working fine, but i wasn't able to enjoy all the cool new features of Froyo. So i started experimenting a lot of Froyo roms aout there to find out the best.

And i finally found the best ROM for G1. It is 'Froyo By Laszlo', the rom is simply phenomenal.

For the 1st time ever with a Froyo rom i was able to multi-task without any issues what so ever, games were working great and it was really fast.

The best thing about this Rom is that, it has all the little features bundled with it, so i don't need to install any additional apps to tweak it, like LauncherPro (fastest launcher for G1), CPU overclocking app is in-built, comcache enable (can switch to swap if you want), MinimalGreen mixed with Gingerbred theme.

You do require

SPL: 1.33.0013d (hboot), RADIO: 2.22.27.08 / 28.25 and EXT 4 PARTITION

Before you flash this Rom. Go to this thread for instructions.

To get the appropriate Radio and HBOOT, go to this thread here. (After getting the Radio and HBOOT, skip the instructions to install Gingerbread Rom and follow the instructions in the above thread to get the Froyo Rom)

It only took me 30mins to install the new Radio, Hboot and Rom.

Try this Rom, if you have a G1 and give it a new life.

[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
Hello,

I sent my phone for service and was told that the problem of my phone they do not cover, and the note says that the board is warped, bent, I thought it was bricked, only saw a light, could not boot and the device has no reaction , already tried the battery mode but to no avail,

What is the solution? D;

I hope you understand, I'm from Brazil
[Defy General] rawfire:
Desculpe amigo, no entiendo.

As far as I understood you, your phone is not showing you any boot screen OR there's currently no software running on your device, & I'm quite sure that your cell phone's battery is not charged enough to run the device in any mood, try searching your local mobile market for Universal Charger, charge your battery for 7-8 hours, meanwhile download RSDLite & Brazil Froyo Official SBF,after 7-8 hours then put battery back in defy, Turn your phone ON while pressing Vol UP [keep it pressed until it shows you bootloader], then open RSDLite & choose downloaded SBF, let it finish & VOILA, you're good to go again.........

PS: Defy is having locked bootloader, means whatever u do with your device, you can't brick it in any means, always it will run in Bootloader mode
[Defy General] aks.techscience:
U mean u can't even get into bootloader or recovery?....wat did u do jus before this happened?
[Defy General] v2dare:
Did u throw the Defy to floor.. Seems the board of Phone is bend bcz of some seriuous shock ..
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
thanks for help

before it is the way that I could do the flash, but the last time I used a rom (Froyo) that I can not remember the way and left it,

I sent my phone to Motorola, but they included this pie plate that's my fault!

My problem is:

- Just see white LED,

- Black screen,

- Phone doesn't boot?

- Never ever see the motorola logo

McGyver Hack tried and left carrying several hours but the phone shows no signal, LED lights only when connected to USB

I hope you understand! D;
[Defy General] tdlr:
Did you try to follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Motorola_Defy#Recover_Nearly_Bricked_Phone_.28hopefully.29 ?

If not, do so. If you see the white LED and did not do any physical damage to the phone, it should be unbrickable and with the guide from above it should work again.
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
universal charger works just like McGyver?

I got a charger
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
My charger shows that the battery is full, I still have 8 hours to leave loading?
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
I did do the flash, but now not out of the motorola logo! and not able to enter the factory reset
[Defy General] tdlr:
Which rom did you flash?

Normally you should be able to enter stock recovery by holding vol-, powering on, and stop holding vol- when the yellow triangle appears. Then press vol- and vol+ at the same time and wipe cache. Reboot and done.
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
JORLA_U3_3.4.2_107-9

I can't enter to recovery mode, just bootloader

Am I doing something wrong with RSD? to put the flash, and when it appears to manually restart it restarts but gets stuck in the Motorola logo, remove the battery and put again holding power + vol up and it appears that the RSD over this process ... right?

microsd must be empty?

I am not able to sleep because of this D;
[Defy General] tdlr:
it's not important whether the sd is empty or not.

Maybe try a more recent version of rsd lite, like 5.1. Also install the latest motorola drivers.

You may also try to check the MD5 sum of your SBF against the one given on the download page. Or download the SBF again and reflash a second time.

Did you wait for RSD to display "Reboot phone manually" or "PASS/FINISHED" ? If you're not 100% sure that it's done, simply wait for 5 minutes or so and check whether it has finished or not.

You could also try to flash a 2.2.2 rom (nordic or so).
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
in part he is in "manually reboot phone" and hangs on the Motorola logo, it is still "manually reboot phone" even after five minutes, I pull the battery and replace and go into the bootloader, and woe in rsd lite it was "Reboot phone manually" is "PASS"
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
would somehow more radical? recovery by entering the pc?

my Defy is heating up, is this normal?

I had installed before the unit to CM7 problem
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
i make this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1O4lALPdlKo&feature=mh_lolz&list=HL1317352132
[Defy General] tdlr:
Starting at 1:05 and the next 20 seconds or so I don't really understand why you're putting the battery out and in so often. After rebooting the phone, you should simply wait for RSD to show PASS and then just wait another 2 minutes or so for the phone to boot. Why do you start it in bootloader mode again ?

Also, did you try to flash other Roms? If not, try Nordic 2.2.2 or others (but NOT 2.3.4 roms!!!!)

Btw, is it still impossible to enter stock recovery?
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
So ... I took the battery because the moment that appears to restart my device and manually reset it is in the motorola logo until the battery runs out, and if I call to replace and usually the rsd lite still says need to restart if I shot and put the battery and go into the boot loader shows the RSD lite "PASS"

poles already tried ROMs, including nordic

what I'm seeing is rather impossible to get into recovery, but now it appears after a few seconds after the motorola:

bootloader

09.10

Err: A5, 70,39,00,27
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
help!! guys!!
[Defy General] aks.techscience:
Did u try a new version of rsd lite?
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:
yes!! i try
[Defy General] cheuslacerda:

[Defy General] rishi2100:
try hard resetting your defy, by pressing power and volume down

clear data and cache partition from there and then flash any rom you want.

maybe this works...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
I was just wondering on how long your battery life was, I guess when comparing to idle time. I ask because this was the main issue of mine as to why I havent flashed anything. When idle I was getting up to about 3 - 4 days of battery.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArtificialSweetener:
If battery life is important to you I would avoid all ROMs other than stock.

Flashing 3rd party ROMs is likely to damage you battery calibrator which causes you battery life to drain rapidly since calibration gets all screwed up.

Nobody knows specifically what is causing this serious issue but what we do know is that it happens when you flash a 3rd party ROM/Kernel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pershoot:
hey! can you please keep all your posts in one thread? it's getting hard for me to track your progress.

thx man.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pershoot:
custom roms usually use the stock kernel. what you get on your stock rom, you should get on a custom.

battery life is also subjective and variable, depending on your useage patterns, etc.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeanHacker:
Once again... lick my butthole 5thelement. Man you really bring out the class in me tonight bro.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sternweezy:
I've been using task650s ROM with great battery life. I did have the battery drain issue which I don't think is really ROM related but once I went through the suggested calibration on this forum everything has been great. Think I've had my Tab on for 5-6 days with it at idle through the night and earlier parts of the day and using it for internet browsing and music around the house each evening. Turned it off last night with 30-40% battery left (just a guess).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
Yea I am familiar with screwed up battery life calibration on my Captivate. I was getting anywhere from 8 hours to a day and a half which was why I was asking.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnyg1097:
Really? Hmm thats good to know, I will look into that one then if I consider flashing. :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfcooley:
Heavy usage (a lot of browsing, notes, some games) nets me a little over a day. My usage can be heavy and nonstop.

My average is around 2 days before I have to charge. That's mostly moderate heavy. My usage is abnormal but I can say I'm happy with its battery life.

Using tasks rom and pershoots kernel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakedninja42:
My usage is heavy everyday so I get about 7 - 8 hours of screen time by the time I go to bed and usually I am around 30% - 35% left. I use it all day for when I am on the train or in class. Running Starburst KME at the moment but I got the same average battery life on all ROMs using stock kernel. Pershoots kernel is reliable and I could go an extra day if I wanted.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yh9205:
My galaxy tab got big problem on battery.Fully charged on 6am morning,airplane mode without any use,by 7pm night i left 50% battery.Baseband version P7500KWXG1 firmware upgrade from samsung kies.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hebbe:
yeah, battery life for the galaxy tabs seems to be pretty poor! i just can use my 10.1v (stock) for only about 3 or 4 days. just for a little bit of wifi surfing and ebook reading (wifi switches off during standby).

i really love my galaxy tab, and i hated my ipad, but regarding battery life i used to charge my ipad only once a month!!! really. and i used it exactly for the same things as my galaxy tab.

samsung promised it to have similar battery life as the ipad...one more lie from them...
[HTC Sensation] HRodMusic:
just wondering, i just took the speedtest and got 2.46 up and 0.20 down =/ i think it might be a bit slow =/
[HTC Sensation] usual_suspect:
If thats ment to be 4G its a little slow yes. The speed test on my signature was done on a the THREE UK 3G network using the stock browser on my Sensation. I think my local cell has recently been upgraded to HSPA+.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millia90:
Soo I have a Galaxy S II I9100. And it was great until something happened. Lord knows what happened to it. But I was running the latest version of Sensation ROM (1.6) smoothly. Then yesterday all of the sudden my phone kinda stops working more or less. The screen became unresponsive at times, the screen would activate on its own and then I would not be able to use it. After taking the battery out and restarting it things were OK for about 5 minutes.

Then after trying to open any sort of applications the Voice Command app would start and I wouldn't be able to exit out of it. After mashing the home button I could get out of it and then trying to open anything would result in a black screen (status bar active at top). So I figured maybe something went wrong with the software. I happened to have an update .zip of Sensation from 1.5 to 1.6, so I reflashed. This did not really help out. Even plugging in the USB cable was a 50/50 chance, Windows would tell me that the device is seemingly defective and sometimes it would work. But then trying to open USB Mass Storage was a big headache as well.

So I let it sit the night and then this morning I used Odin to flash a stock kernel. This seemed to help out somewhat, it made the system more stable and usable for a little bit. In the meantime I went to the so called "Samsung Cell Phone Service Center" in my city which turned out to be some repair shop for iPhones (go figure). After elaborately explaining my problems they said "must be a software issue". Which it is't. Anyways in the meantime I called Samsung America for direction, after talking to 3 different CS reps they referred me to call Samsung UK because that's where the phone was manufactured.

After that I did a factory reset and that made the issues even worse.

So I'm at a cross roads. I am probably going to be putting a call into Samsung UK tomorrow to try and figure something out.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Do a FULL wipe in CWM and then flash a stock rom. See if that helps. If not, then it's a hardware problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millia90:
I had done that and then flashed a stock ROM which removed CWM, root, and the Sensation ROM. While that seemed to have helped, it would still randomly reboot (fewer than now) and the same issues persisted but less frequently. In the SGS2 stock recovery mode I did factory reset and wiped all data and cache and the problems are back and more frequent. I did take the phone to the beach but it was in a bag wrapped in a shirt..

could that have somehow caused this issue with the hardware?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millia90:
I'm thinking that this is a hardware issue.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Yes, I think it is. One thing that comes to mind, did your modem change when flashing different roms? If not try a different modem. Otherwise it's really a hardware problem.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeramyEggs:
Is there an upside to getting a lot of thanks? What I mean is it benifical, other than showing how many people you have helped? I know, dumb question. There are no dumb questions, just dumb people.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlimSnoopOS:
I would have to guess for the regular user, no benefits. For me, it signifies that I am a helpful XDA user. I have no real idea though haha
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loonatik78:
I think the correct term would be "social currency". The idea is to motivate pride and respect within the community. Basically, you're going to think someone a higher authority if they've got 2200 "thanks" than Joe Blow over there with 17 "thanks"... at least you should. That's pretty much what it's about.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DustinBooyah:
Yeah it just helps users decide for themselves who to rely on based on who else has had success with a certain user
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zalatorisaurus:
It does hold some high regard, but not everyone gets their due thanks. I've helped plenty of people and have only gotten a fraction of thanks button clicks.

:confused:

I have a basic question,

I'm only asking because there's far too much

information available,

on here

and its not easy to find what best fits my

needs.

I have an unlocked A3335 wildfire ( Telstra NextG network 3g version), I'm using it on optus,

my boyfriend was useing it he dowloaded a

font change app for the phone,

but when he did it my phone went in to

bootloop mode.and keep't bootlooping again

and again

all i get is the start up screen,

with yes you guessed it

(Telstra NextG network 3g crap)

All I want to do is try and get my phone from

this bootloop mode and try and recover...

my phone back to how it was.

Its hard to explain,

ok when i go in to the boot screen

i have this on my phone

BUZZ PVT SHIP S- Off

HBOOT-1.01.0002

MICROP-0622

TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab

RADIO-3.35.20.10

DEC 27 2010,

17:49:10

and it reads the sd card,

it said the Boot Image. is missing

dont know why a app would take this out

but this is what happen

So Now when i did the fastboot on my phone

it done nothing,

then did the clear storge.

then i did the recovery

it rebooted to a black screen with A

triangle shape with one of these things

! in the middle of it,

but still stuck

I can follow the regular guides for rooting,

can any one help me to get my phone back to

how it was please

And I really don't care about this part much,

but would be nice to have it off the phone

and remove all the telstra junk and restore

the phone back to how HTC would ship it,

(all the junk apps they include could easily be optionally installed from marketplace if you want their crap...)

(obviously I'm in Australia also)

There are so many ROMS and options available,

including the ones from shipped roms

(it wont let me post the link because I'm new).

I just want my phone back to how i got it,

can any one help me please....

please send me a private messages,

with a step by step guide to do so thanks..
[Wildfire General] showlyshah:
Since you are s-off u can use fastboot flash from windows to flash a clockwork mod recovery. After you do that, every thing will be simple. Just download a rom in zip format,put it to sd go to recovery( just do what you have done to see the triangle in blackscreen. Note that if u flash cwm you will no longer see that triangle). Then use your volume down button to reach install zip from SD card. Hit it with joystick press. Choose zip. Install it. Just do a data- factory resetting before you install zip.

I prefer cyanogen mod 7. U may use latest stable or nightly build. Feel free to post any doubt you have. We are happy to help you.

Regards shah.
[Wildfire General] aussiegirl:
thank you so much your a life saver :) it work't have my phone back now yay
[Wildfire General] showlyshah:
K. Be in touch with xda. Find out more. Make your wildfire yours and not htc's.

Thank u
[Wildfire General] aussiegirl:
well i got some bad news its gone back to how it was,

trying to do the same thing,

could you please give me a step by step guide thanks,

do i need to turn my sd card in to a gold card ?

its formatted to a FAT32

If you have any ideas where to go and get this would be a great help :)
[Wildfire General] Hanakie:
nope that gold card image will send to ur email..and u need to copy that gold card image to ur sd card...
[Wildfire General] bx19:
Well if the hboot is 1.01.0002 with S-OFF then it must be done using xtc clip. So fastboot flashing shouldn't be working. And u don't need a gold card for S-OFF wildfire .

I would just suggest to flash a stock froyo WWE RUU which also removes the carrier bloatware. If ruu proccess gives errors u can copy the romzip from that ruu and use it with pc49img process from hboot menu. And ofcourse fat32 memory card is must for pc49img process
[Wildfire General] showlyshah:
Hey can you explain what happened now? You said that yours is working now before 2 days. ( in second last post). So what happened now? What have you tried with your phone?

And...

So the gold card question, let me explain.

Gold card is just a patch tool, with the help of which you can unlock HTC boot loader , or in detail, you can unlock HTC 's boot loader protection(that's what we call as s-off) , which is commenly locked( that's we call as s-on) , for a user mode phone( a phone that is for sale to normal user), and it is done so because a normal user never need a root permission, over clocking etc. Also user defined kernal,rom,radio updates unless HTC provide them with updates.( and of cource to protect their device and its custom os made by HTC.

So being an s-off device, we can say in simple, unleash the potential of android.( that's what i said, make the device yours and not HTC 's).

And s-off. In can be done using many ways, find them in topic " complete wildfire index " , one of which is using goldcard method. It is also explained in topic/ stickies " downgrade hboot to xxxx". You can download an attached file called buzz downgrade from that topic, and its what you all need.

And about ruu flashing, i think its not a safe one for you, Coz your phone is a3335? Right? If so, original ruu flashing may cause problems with network( called as radio problems), so you can use custom/ safe ruu, instead. Which contains no radio image, check " complete wildfire index" else go for custom os like cm7.

But before all you should mention what you need.

1) r u trying to put custom os, or do you need original os?

2) do you want your phone to be a true android gadget, or just normal phone which is provided by HTC?

3) what kind of user r u? Normal user or a tech junky?

4) r u satisfied with android 2.2 or need 2.3?

Get us the answers, along with your current boot menu( where you find recovery option) details. So that we can help you properly.

That's all dude. Its 2.30 am here in India, so i should wish myself a good night, swtdrmz. Cu ltr.
[Wildfire General] bx19:
Oops. Completely missed that point, sorry.

But since the phone is S-OFF one can just flash the system.img and boot.img alone from wwe ruu to remove the carrier bloat and to continue on the HTC stock rom (only if u wish to). Same pc49img process here but with only system.img and boot.img along with android-info.txt .
[Wildfire General] aussiegirl:
:confused: now im lost where do i fine the right one to use do you know how many there are out there this phone is doing my head in i try to flash the system.img and the boot.img and a stock rom and still nothing im ready to give up to be honest :(
[Wildfire General] showlyshah:
Have you installed clockwork mod recovery? If not do it first. Use fastboot flash from windows or linux, then download latest cyanogen mod nightly and put it in your sd. Then use install zip option from cwm recovery to install cm7. Done. Its what you want. No radio harm will be done unless you flash a radio using any methods.

All info will be available on thread" complete wild fire index" in this forum. Tools, recovery, how to, rom, and every thing else are available in that thread.
[Wildfire General] aussiegirl:
i have all of these things you said here what i dont understand i have tryed this so many times and still dosent work and its abit hard with work as i dont get much time to fix this phone for the past week has given me nothing but a pain in the rear end and its doing my head in...
