[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
It's not working for me.

EDIT

I removed the files in the tmp directory and it worked!

BUT

It's not consistent. When I reboot the su file disappears.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
I've unlocked my bootloader. This may be required. Can anyone confirm that this works/fails on a locked bootloader?

[HTC Amaze 4G] vdub804:
Finally, you sir are a genius
[HTC Amaze 4G] cmenard:
I'm on a locked bootloader. It doesn't work.
[HTC Amaze 4G] thephunk:
Confirmed, same result for me on a locked bootloader. On reboot, it all goes away (or comes back).
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Perhaps we just need to push su, flash_image and busybox to /system/bin/ then do a flash_image recovery rooted_recovery.img or whatever that actual command is. Can't remember because it's been a couple of years since I had to use fastboot.

Once we have a custom recovery we can flash a custom rom, bootloader, radio, etc.

Sadly, this is beyond my skills.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
Are you talkin' to me? 'Cause I'm pretty sure I'm not. But, if you were, then thanks!

-xdadevelopers-user
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
I locked my bootloader. Then I attempted to make some more changes. After reboot those changes were lost. So, it seems obvious now that for any of this to work, you must first unlock the bootloader.

However, my earlier changes (when the bootloader was unlocked) are still there - which is kinda cool.

-xdadevelopers-user
[HTC Amaze 4G] cmenard:
How are you locking and unlocking the bootloader?
[HTC Amaze 4G] crackeyes:
PG85IMG and there you have it
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
anyone want to test the unsecured boot.img? i believe it will let you root via superoneclick now
[HTC Amaze 4G] crackeyes:
I would but my phone will not allow me to even do a factory data reset. Any changes I make in the phone it reverts back to after a reboot.. Its like the data and system are Read only all the time. ANy one want to help me fix it
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
do you htc unlock thats all i need?
[HTC Amaze 4G] crackeyes:
i Have done it three times but again on a reboot it reverts back to being locked

[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
What did you do to lock it again?
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
I booted the device into fastboot and then, from my pc, ran:

fastboot oem lock

Now the hboot screen shows that my bootloader is "RELOCKED". I don't think there is any way to get back to a "LOCKED" state.

-xdadevelopers-user
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
Well that sucks. Is there a way to decompile or hex edit the existing bootloader?
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
Probably. But that's VERY risky. If you break the bootloader you probably brick the phone. And, if you've EVER unlocked the bootloader then the warranty is void. So I won't be trying it any time soon.

However, it doesn't suck. I can freely lock and unlock my bootloader as I wish. The only difference between a "LOCKED" and a "RELOCKED" bootloader is that in the case of the "RELOCKED" you cannot say for sure that the device has not been modified. In fact, it's possible that if my /system partition wasn't modified it would show "LOCKED" instead of "RELOCKED" though I doubt it.

It's also possible that HTC will release an official recovery image for the Amaze. When/if they do, that might allow one to reset the state of the bootloader to "LOCKED". I'm pretty sure though, that once you unlock you can never get all the way back to locked.

-xdadevelopers-user
[HTC Amaze 4G] gaww:
xdadevelopers-user - what order did you use to get where you are, ie. Hboot unlock them root, then your scheme?

I don't think I will jump on this right away, as until there is a workable recovery, cannot do a nandroid and always do that before going further.

With a recovery, will simply flashing a rooted ROM achieve S=off?
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
The order I followed:

1. unlocked bootloader (until you do this there's not much you can do).

2. Temp root using zergRush

3. Manually perm-root by remounting system and pushing busybox, superuser.apk, and su

4. further customized the system (changed the battery to include %)

5. relocked the bootloader using "fastboot oem lock" (no more changes can be made - at least none that will persist across a reboot)

You are smart to wait for a proper custom recovery image. I'd try building one but android.git.kernel.org is down and that's where I get the android base from. Until it comes back (which I hope is soon) I suspect we're out of luck. Hopefully I'm wrong.

-xdadevelopers-user
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
i almost got recovery working fully but dont have a devie but should be ready in like this weekend :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] gaww:
Curious - why did you relock? Also, does xboarder's easy one click root combine the zergRush and the superuser, etc. into one package?

The android.git has been down a long time it seems.
[HTC Amaze 4G] xboarder56:
yes its a mix of all there and a few edits of my own
[HTC Amaze 4G] xdadevelopers-user:
I relocked as an experiment to see if relocking would revert my changes. It did not. However, when locked, any changes are lost on reboot.

GPS force closes shortly after setting a destination, and maps is near useless without it.

Anybody else have this pproblem? I have the same issue on 2 Epics, mine and my girlfriend's.

Many thanks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xopher.hunter:
Use a different rom or telenav. This has been a VERY documented issue in the simply aosp rom thread as well. There is a fix in the works

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtjoker42:
Going to be working on the update for Simply AOSP 4.x, and the gps/nav fix is hopefully (barring any unforeseen issues) going to be included.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hayzooos:
There's already a workaround (turn volume off on GPS) and a fix (push a few files, located in the thread in dev) in place.

But yes, this is supposed to be fixed in the next relelase which will hopefully come along any day now.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kehlan:
Assuming you're one of the AOSP devs, thanks for the heads up. Great ROM aside from the aforementioned.

I'll be sure to keep my eyes opened for the next release.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xopher.hunter:
No worries hopefully simply aosp gets updated soon, use srf 1.2 til then for reliable gps
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kehlan:
Meh, I'll pass on the SRF. Regardless of the GPS issues, I absolutely love AOSP roms. It was one of the first I flashed after entering the realm of Android, and it's the current one I'm running on mine & my girlfriend's Epics.

I'll just stick with Hotspotting my GT10.1 and using the GPS on there, for now. The map looks WAY better on that huge screen, anyways.;)

Thanks for the input though.

hi Gang.

I have beenusing gingerdx for about 1 month, all ok. today i updated to v17. had to reinstall email.apk, facebook and soundcloud as they were FC'ing all the time. now they are fixed.

I have the following 2 issues

1 camera button not open camera

2 home button not working as expected. I have set it to open homescreen on short press and open app list on long press. neither work.

when phone in standby, pressing the home jey turns the screen on. nothing else.

any help?

thanks
[XPERIA X8 General] LiborA.:
I can answer only for question 1, because I dont use preinstaled launcher.

For camera button: I must long press camera button (about 1,5 sec. - phone must short vibrate) to start camera app.
[XPERIA X8 General] cola286:
I have also recently given GDX a second attempt from FB. I am also facing the same problem with the home button not working, exactly as you explain it. Wierd. I've got a E15a if that helps...

I also can't get any of the lock screen options to work, pattern, pin or password work. Everything's enabled but when I bring the phone off stand-by there is no unlocking option, just goes straight to home screen.

Edit: After someone testing, I think I figured out why this was happening. The issue happens when I flash GDX from FB or if I do a full wipe and use titanium backup to restore system data. So I believe there was some sort of incompatibility between GDX and FB settings. At the moment it seems more stable (or so I hope). If you want to keep your contacts, call log, messages etc, on TB just tick contacts storage, dialer storage and media storage and leave the rest unchecked.

I wanted to unlock my boot loader. Couldnt succeed on 2.3 so flashed 2.1. Used onetouch tool (by mayazcherquoi) to unlock. And flashed dooms kernel for unlocked bootloader. I realised my boot unlocked, but phone was boot looped. It used to show just boot screen continuously. I used flashtool to downgrade kernel then also it was stuck on SE logo. Finally I flashed 2.3 fw via xrecovery. Now i get a blue LEd light in Doom's boot screen. But the phone works. It lags like hell and I get no sim card message. It also states that baseband unknown. no imei no.. Pls help me. I am currently surviving on secondary phone(w610i).
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 9Lukas5:
ok, please tell me:

Have you tried to flash the complete 2.3 firmware with flashtool to see if you get the baseband version again?

On which version have you installed doomkernel? cause if you try a kernel ment for 2.3 on the 2.1 firmware, you can't get the rom to boot^^

By the way, the blue LED in doomkernel is a new feater. If the led lights up, press the button for the recovery u want. That avoids MUCH pressing on the buttons, cause you can wait until you see the led light up.

P.S. could you please go on by pm? Cause I never look into the Q&A section^^

My desire Z is reasonably new a few months old. But Itd been let without use for about a month and when I took it out I noticed now when I open the keyboard the screen goes purpleish, not all over but tinged in places. White is purple in some places and there's green blotches near on screen icons. It looks like the colours have been dragged to the right slightly. I think its a hardware issue but its a pain :(

When keyboard is closed the problem usually isn't present or sometimes the distortion is minimal. ALSO iv now noticed the hard QWERTY keyboard no longer seems to function right eithar. Some letters arnt working most of the time.

Anyway ink how to repair it or know a guide? I this it mit be something to do with the cable.

There is videos showing you how to take the phone apart to replace the hinge spring,sounds to me to be a faulty display though.

If you do take the phone apart there is a screw with void sticker so your warranty will be good and gone,if it is a faulty display you could still un root and get it replaced?

Wait to see if anyone else has any ideas before breaking out the screwdrivers,
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jandyman:
No its not a faulty display. Display is ok when screen is closed. Also I used a tweezers to push the cable in as much as I could at the back and it fixed the screen. . . . .QWERTY was still not as good as it shud be (but slightly improved) but after maybe 15open and shuts it came out again.

So this means I have to open it and unloosen it right? No simpler easier way to do it?

And the keyboard problems are caused by the cable too afaik.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bombadier:
The method in the video is the only way I know to gain access to the ribbons socket,still think warranty is your best bet as you have pointed out the keyboard is faulty,if you open it up and cant replace the void sticker/something goes wrong,then the warranty is gone and you have a broken phone...........................
