I just got done fixing a problem I had with Contacts Storage, a system app. I had a clockworkmod backup, however. If you don't have a clockworkmod backup you may be in greater trouble than I was. My clockworkmod backup was of the BAD setup, so you don't have to have a "working" backup, or you'd just use that, obviously.

I FXZ'd back to stock, re-rooted, re-bootstrapped, then just did an "Advanced" restore and restored ONLY the "Data". Got me back to exactly where I left off.

If you have modified anything else in your System folder, the FXZ will overwrite it.

Hi all,

I'm on stock JVT atm with the Samaphore 1.8 kernel. The only thing I'm missing is the CRT animation and battery mod...

Does anyone know where I can get this for JVT?

[HTC Sensation] mart3:
put them all on the sd card. if it not works put them back.

some you can not put on your card for they you have already you have your answer.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Why move any? Are you low on space?
[HTC Sensation] PaulGiz:
+1

Working off SD card is slower, less stable, wears your card out faster and often have trouble linking to the app and/or icon.

We did this on older devices because we had little memory. With 1 Gb you should be in good shape.

If and when you're low on memory, you can consider it, but until then I'd leave well enough alone.

Alright guys am going to flash Android Revolution HD 4.1.3 today and as mentioned on the the original thread its recommended to flash the Radio too but am afraid i didn't fully understand the procedure and with all the warnings that it might brick the phone if something goes wrong. within the guide that came with the radio there are 2 questions i have

1. Connect your phone into a PC which mode i choose???, and make sure that USB Debugging is enabled

2. Click "Start here". A black command prompt window will open "where is this ?? does it mean open command prompt??

3. Type: "adb reboot bootloader"

4. Once your phone is in bootloader (white screen with text), type "fastboot flash radio radio.img"

5. When the flashing completes, type "fastboot reboot"
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

1.charge mode

2.black command prompt window opens on your desktop

3.if you right click the top edge of the black command prompt window,you get the option to edit/paste(so you can easily copy/paste the commands)

Just make sure that no programs are running while you are doing this flash.

[HTC Sensation] raitsuke:
Hello! I tried to flash the recommended radio for ARHD 3.6.2 but I noticed the difference in letter. I downloaded this radio: Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 but in my sensation it has a letter P instead of U.. why is that? can someone explain it to me please?

thanks!!
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

The letter has no bearing on how the radio works.

It just shows the carrier being used.(TMOUS or Vodaphone or something)

:)
[HTC Sensation] sstanton86:
Does that make a difference, if say, I'm in the UK and using it? Because i'm on O2?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

None whatsoever.

I could have written every carrier in the list,but I couldn't be bothered :p

I'm on o2,and it doesn't affect me.

:)
[HTC Sensation] sstanton86:
Thanks fellow Englander ;)
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Easier just to get the PG58IMG file and flash it from your SD card
[HTC Sensation] raitsuke:
Thanks! Now it's clear to me :)
[HTC Sensation] egyptian_guide:
I have tried that but the command didnot go through and it gave me that message :

C:\Users\ELTWHED>adb reboot bootloader

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

so whats wrong am i doing?
[HTC Sensation] raitsuke:
Make sure you are in the same folder as the files are located
[HTC Sensation] XD Wiggles:
You need to be in the same folder as the adb files, or add the path to your PATH so you can use it anywhere.

thank you guys it worked smoothly !! :)

Flash Radio Problems

Morning,

I've flashed the HD 4.1.3, no problem, works well. However, I can't make the flash radio work. I've tried the ADB approach, also tried the PG58IMG flash and have had no success. It fails the flash process every time. The radio I'm trying to flash is 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 and I am on T-Mobile.

Current Data:

Pyramid PUT SHIP S-OFF RL

Hboot-1.17.0008

Radio 10.11.9007.15_M

eMMC-boot

I've also named the file PG58DIAG.Zip and it fails to load on bootup. It gives an error, but clears screen too fast to read the error.

I've read this forum until I'm blind, and can't find a solution. Would really appreciate some help on this matter. Obviously I've missed something.

Thanks,
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Is the zip supposed to be called

PG58IMG.zip

or

PG58DIAG.zip

I thought it should be the first one.

:)
[HTC Sensation] Lanemc:
actually "I've tried both. No luck!
[HTC Sensation] jafazec:
Thanks,helped me too,everything went ok,but baseband version/number hasn't changed,it's still the same..Does this mean that radio flash didn't work?
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Where did you check this information?

What radio are you trying to flash?

:)
[HTC Sensation] jafazec:
I've checked it in hboot&about phone/software/more...But now,after I turned off my phone during the night,and switching it on it all seems good,radio number is just like you explained on ARHD theme,correct in about phone,and one number below that in HBOOT;)
[HTC Sensation] ayoi92:
not work for me

at first it show

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.(because i didnt extract the zip file)

but after extract it show

Error: device not found

i already connect the phone with pc n already tick usb debugging

help me....
[General Questions and Answers] morvyman:
i have rooted my atrix 2X, before and after gingerbread, after doing alot of reading and making as sure as i could that i knew what to expect and what i was getting into. now i am considering unlocking the bootloader, and again, from what i read, think i can get it done?! but... everyone talks of backing up entire phone beforehand by copying data folder?

to use windows analogy, even if i copy all of the files on old system ie. xp, then i install win vista, those old xp files are no good to me because they were installed by old sys and based on registry values for xp? so if i unlock bootloader, flash a custom rom, analogous to new windows os, then how do i make my old files/apps work with new rom??

could someone please give me a general outline of the concept, and ideally (please) the steps needed to make a useable backup. i have Tit B/U pro, but have read it's not the right way to go to make a backup for this situation, rather it's good for reinstalling all of your apps again on an existing rom??

thank you in advance for any help/suggestions.

[Desire HD General] Chrisbabs85:
Hi guys I came across this and it worked for me running 2.33 :) hope it works for you the main site is in German, just translate. the tool is in English and read me.

Info: Below :)

This is possible with the new Ace Advanced Hack Kit by attn1 original instructions: [TOOL] Advanced Hack Ace kit features:

Fully integrated / invisible gold card process

Only one step - one click

No full downgrade needed (only radio and kernel, and this automatically)

No Wipe - No data is lost

ROM works then completely

Rooted in full - including S-OFF

Busybox Manager app preinstalled

Radio S-OFF, and no SIM lock SuperCID

Correct radio is automatically restored (HSPA +)

ClockwordMOD ROM and managers are automatically installed

Supports Froyo and Gingerbread - 2.50.xxx.x also firmware and new !

Easily reversed

...

Notes:

Please do not run if the DHD -offed is already saturated and / or a CustomROM runs on it. DHDs only for stock!

Important Windows: Disable all anti-malware software. This can produce false alarms and unnecessary files damage - Brick-risk!

Not run in a virtual machine. ADB requires direct contact with the DHD !

During the process, the screen may be dark - that's ok! If the process is complete, return the image

This kit should work with all versions of the DHD and function of the HTC Inspires

The SD card in the DHD should first be formatted. That is, either take another SD card that is formatted and empty, or copy only the contents of the card to the PC, then reformat. After completion of the hack, the data can be reloaded onto the card.

(Eg various play ROMs), many of the advanced points are designed for the AT & T and are NOT to Inspire our Euro- DHD will be playing! Effen manual instructions!

And now the most important point:

Necessarily the Effen manual read. can find it in aahk package as a separate download in English or in German.

It won't let me post link because i'm new user, so ill pm link for post reply ;)

Used this myself a week ago almost. Absolutely brilliant piece of kit. Being a complete noob I wasn't sure if it had radio s-off'd my phone but it had.
[Desire HD General] bobbyelliott:
Looks great but...

My Desire HD is a UK T-Mobile brand running the current (UK) OS and radio and firmware.

Is it simply a case of downloading this software and running it on my Windows (7) PC? Or do I need to do stuff before that?

Once I've installed it, does it include a ROM or do I download and install a ROM separately?

And, lastly, will I have to re-install T-Mobile (UK) settings to get it to work after I run the software?

Cheers.
[Desire HD General] audiavant:
Just run the cmd file from Windows 7 (you must have Android USB driver or Android SDK Tools installed on PC), sit back for 3-5 minutes and you have fully rooted DHD.

My OS are 2.50.405.2

This is a "one click" tool as written by author as work perfect for original OS delivered with DHD :)

(You can drop the manual downgrade process as also work perfect but take longer time to do)
[Desire HD General] oddbin:
I'm on 3 and did it a week ago. All this tool does is root and S–OFF your phone. Your network settings wont be changed. Its well worth it.

After that its a case of picking tour rom. I've played with arhd and currently playing with cm7.1.
[Desire HD General] swift2fly:
Finally rooted!

since I can't post in the original thread (due to lack of post), i would like to thank the Dev of AceHack. I bought my DHD with Froyo and upgraded to GB without realizing how much of a pain it was to Root GB. So after months of research trying to root my DHD on my Mac..I thought i'd give AceHack a try. It was so EASY and a breeze on Mac, my day has been made. So I am very thankful and happy now that I have superuser access on my phone. Thanks again!
[Desire HD General] accesser:

I used this a few weeks ago on a Mac, and I couldn't believe how easy it was. Run the script in the terminal, wait 5 minutes and it's done.

[Desire HD General] peacekeeper05:
Maybe its time to finally root my desire HD. Rooting and installing a custom rom from stock 2.3.3 is such a pain and takes a lot of your time. It seems this is a nicer way.
[Desire HD General] B. East:
Does this work on the mac or do you need a windows emulator to run in the mac
[Desire HD General] swift2fly:
i would have to say these steps are easier to do on a mac. no emulator or any drivers needed. plug in ur phone to your mac with USB debug ticked, open terminal under utilities and run the script. the instructions in the download files was so easy to follow. i definitely recommend this for all mac users.
[Desire HD General] sweetleaf:
Does this method work with unbranded devices? That "gold card process" etc, is disturbing me a little bit.
[Desire HD General] wildwill95:
Would this work for the AT&T Inspire 4G as well?
[Desire HD General] swift2fly:
yes it works. I am unbranded as well.

---------- Post added at 03:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------

Anyone flash this ROM and not the recommended radio? I left the radio as is and I have not witnessed any problems. My phone seems fine. Internet download is fine etc and I think the phone is much smoother and faster. Battery life increased to 100%. Last night i was on my phone for 4 hours straight from 80% - 10% battery.

if it can make my phone even faster, i may do it but not sure if it would affect any network settings.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuubdroid:
Hello All,

I have made up my mind to buy a Nexus S now. But I wanted some inputs from you guys before I go ahead and buy it. So here are my questions,

1) Nexus S version available here in India is a Super LCD version. Cost $400, worth it ?

2) Compared to other phones I am sure, "pure google experience" will be great on this phone. Am I right ?

3)Google (Galaxy) Nexus Prime is due next week. Cost of that will certainly be around $600(not tied to carrier). In the wake of this, I feel Nexus S is a better buy.

4)Will Nexus S actually run ICS and further ?

5)As a phone, how would you rate it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malikadnanm:
I would try to get the SAMOLED one. Look on eBay or something. I bought the LCD one to compare with my SAMOLED. In my opinion it felt quite a bit thicker and heavier. The screen was a little sharper for sure but it was much less responsive for some reason. I had to tap the keyboard a few times for it to register properly. Also, the blacks, which r the biggest part of the UI for gingerbread and ics, don't look very good on an LCD. And overall, the nexus s is the best phone I've used. I've had pretty much every phone and like this the best.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
Yes.

......
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bringonblink:
I've loved the Nexus S. yes we will definately get the ICS update.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] praveenmarkandu:
Nexus Prime (or whatever) will be out within the next month or so. The Nexus S is a great phone and I love it but it technically is a last generation phone in terms of specs. I would wait for the Prime. If you like what you see, get the Prime, if not the price of the Nexus S should drop.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianDigital:
You could wait till the prime comes out might drive the price down on ether nexus s

But that said its not worth signing a two year contract for, not sure if thatd how it goes on the other side of the pond
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damnmisur:
Love the Nexus S. I would wait for second generation dual core and buy Nexus S now. By then the price should be down and the software will make use of dual core.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
I had the same dilema. I used to own a Galaxy S (SAMOLED version) and I was wondering if I should keep it until the Nexus Prime will come out or to go first through Nexus S.

I chose to go with Nexus S (S-LCD version). Indeed, the blacks are not so deep as the SAMOLED but there are upsides also: 1. S-LCD is MUCH brighter and outdoor visibility is greatly improved; 2. The images do look sharper and also the colors saturation are more natural compared to the vivid ones on the SAMOLED; 3. there is no risk of screen burn-out at all .. so you can use whatever themes with static images as you like.

As for the Nexus Prime: it will come out at around $800 USD (in the begining) and you will find it at ~$500 USD or maybe less after at leat 3-4 months after launch (these are contract-free costs). Looking at this situation I prefer to wait about half year to upgrade to the Prime version. And by doing that I also take no risk in hitting the early OS version bugs.

Just my 2 cents ....
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
$800 USD off contract? Yeah right. It'll be $530 range off-contract day one. Every off-contract phone is around ~$530 including the Galaxy S2 for T-Mobile.

You're in Romania, so it may be $800 USD there.. but in the U.S. its $529.99
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
In Europe we get all the gizmos in euro currency but w/o any conversion from USD. A $100 device will cost here €100. So you see ... not everyone gets lucky.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuubdroid:
Guys, I really appreciate all your replies. Considering the fact that the Nexus S Super LCD version is $400(without contract, In India mostly thats how it works. Buy an unlocked phone, pop in any sim and use it), I thought I would go for it. I badly need a phone right now. The Prime is about 6 months away.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treUse:
The prime is certainly not 6 months away.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ro_explorer:
For certain parts of the world it is. Maybe not 6 months ... but at least three.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amir80:
The dual core processor is a big improvement

I own the nexus s (original OLED) and my GF owns a Galaxy S2.

The speed of the GS2 is noticeable faster and the battery last longer. The problem is that is too big for a man carrying it in his pocket.

If you need a new phone now and you are OK with its size get the GS2. If you want a "google" experience install ROM. It will get the ICS for sure.

If you need a phone now and the GS2 is too big get the nexus s (a lot of members in this forum like the SLCD more than the OLED)

If you can wait get the new nexus prime...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhiral.v:
Bhaisaab, wait until nexus prime is announced. Even if the price is too high then at least the nexus S will become cheaper.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greysoul:
I don't know how the Nexus S can get cheaper. You can get the Nexus S I9023 in germany for 237,- Euro while the Nexus One still cost 249,- Euro. I just stumbled over it and now thinking about selling my lovely Nexus One for a Nexus S, because i am not buying a Nexus Prime for 500+ Euro.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuubdroid:
Again, thanks for all your replies. I am gonna wait for Nexus Prime. If the screen size is 4.65 inches as told in many places on web then I will go for Nexus S(hoping that price will drop further).

What do you guys say about the Sony Ericsson, Xperia Mini ST15i as a temporary phone? Its about $250. Its got great processor, RAM, Camera. Great graphics, but small screen.

Hi all, my gps seems not to work anymore, i had this phone sice 3 months and used gps few times; in this 3 months i did only one official firmware upgrade , from v10a to v10c , italy no brand) and today i discovered that my gps wont lock any satellites, i tried with gps status, it shows 2 or 3 satellites but it can't join them...

any suggestion? (i tried hard reset 2 times, fixing methods by severl guides, but nothing change) help please!

I've the same problem, but my GPS worked previously only with 2G no need of 3G.
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
It works both 2g 3g and offline.

Slow to make a fix though even on 3g. Offline fix is painfully slow 3-4 minutes with good visibility and no obstacles (trees , high buildings etc)

After flight from Spain to UK took more than 5 minutes for offline fix Ouchhh.

Position error is pretty high too 30 to 50 metres on average in the city and thats on fast internet (i drive a lot ).

But stil works even if it is an excuse of working.
[LG Optimus Black] morx:
There's no guide or fix for standalone GPS performance.

face it!

second, all the guided/apps/scripts etc that exist, are for A-GPS function.

NOT all people have internet on their cellphone or a big data plan so they can enable it everytime they need to get a GPS Fix.

The only truth is, that P970's GPS implementation is a total CRAP!

(I have the P500 too, that locks -always on standalone GPS- even inside my house near a window)
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
I dont agree , i can make a fix in less than 30 sec offline at the open
[LG Optimus Black] garzacorporations:
This has happened to me before and i needed to restore the official rom, and wipe everything even the recovery.
[LG Optimus Black] kdo_vi:
I agree with morx. Without A-GPS a few minutes, with A-GPS a few seconds. But Optimus One was excelent - two or three seconds without A-GPS, even in a building.
[LG Optimus Black] garzacorporations:
My problem is not time, is the module not working. I've tried with a-gps and waiting for hours, but not even one satellite. I've tried faster fix, and all that stuff. Is the module not working.
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
Warm fix maybe, cold fix not likely

Cold fix meaning a big enough distance from last fix position.

I like to test with at least 30 km difference

[Epic 4G Themes] || Acer ||:
Found this on Android Police. It's the boot animation for the Nexus Prime. I haven't tested it yet, but it should work with these steps:

1) First you have to be rooted and have a file explorer like root explorer

2) Find the boot animation you like, download it and place it on your sdcard

3) Using root explorer, or what ever you use, move the bootanimation.zip to system/media and reboot

Enjoy!

Edit: OP updated with the correct resolution. The previous one worked but this looks a lot more clear.

NOTE: Use the bootanimation.zip for EC05. Use the sanim.zip for any Gingerbread Build, such as EH17. If you are on EH17, make sure you have a kernel that supports boot animations, such as EH17plus.
