need help again:( ran into alot of issues

i'm using revolt 1.5

1-for some reason after i moved some apps from phone to sd card using App 2 SD by sam lu the system show the apps as uninstall after i reboot the revo, how can i fix it?

2-also after that reboot, my market can't download or update any apps it just get stuck showing the download bar but it have no info of whats the download percentage,

since the market cant download apps i tried downloading the revotoolkit.apk from the xda revo forum with the google browser and it worked

3-but another issue poped up when i try to install the revotoolkit.apk it'll freeze and wont install, whats the problem here? i tried installing multiple times still no dice

4-then i figure something up with the market app so i try to clear it data and cache so i went into settings >> applications >> manage applications and notice there's nothing on the " Downloaded " section

so i check the " Running " section and see that all apps from android system-youtube says computing..

then i went to " All " section, same thing as " Running " section but with some more apps.

then went to " On SD card " section its blank also like downloaded, anyone know how to fix it?

i thought i did something wrong flashing the revolt 1.5 rom so i went back to cwm and do the whole process again " wipe data > flash revot 1.5 > reboot and it didn't fix anything, i still have the same problems

5-so i tried to connect the revo to my pc and run s1c to unroot it and reinstall the stock v4 and redo the whole downgrade and root process then another problem occured, the revo wont connect as internet connection while debug on and neither mass storage and media sync work but it shows the revo is charging through the usb connections

i'm sorry for such a long post

so can someone please help

side note - my phone worked flawless and everything works before i moved the apps to the sd card and reboot thats when everthing got screwed up.

but i still can make/recieve calls/text, the internet is fine i can browse/stream/download with stock browser and youtube
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
What I would do is back up apps, reboot into recovery, wipe data, reflash the rom, then reinstall apps.
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
i would but i can't because before i flash the revolt i backed up everything with " my backup " and that's one of the app that's went missing and i can't seem to find a way to reinstall it even after i found it on the browser and downloaded it, it still freeze during install and i cant find a way to install that apk just like the revotoolkit.apk by thecubed it still won't install no matter how many times i try it

i even tried to do the software update on the revo obviously it wont work but i thought why not give it a shot.

i was wondering if i would flash any previous revolt versions would i be able to do the sorfware update on the revo?

thanks for the reply tho mtmichealson

are there's another way i can try to fix these problems?
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Interesting.. What home replacement do you use? I use GO Launcher, and I went in, and did some light app cleaning, getting rid of crap I don't need. I rebooted to make sure it was all off, and interestingly enough, some of my apps were gone. I went into Settings- Applications- manage, and the apps I was missing on my home screen were still there, but were not being displayed on my home screen. I did a reboot. And it solved it. I don't know if that had to do with the GO Launcher or not.

If you go to the market, does it say you have the apps? If you get Astro file manager, does it say the files are on your sd card? I mean, they have to be somewhere. You could wipe cache, and dalvik and try to reflash the rom. If that doesn't work, you could try homeless, and if everything is golden flash revolt. Taking into account the risks there. I know somewhere quite close to the top of the forums, we have the original files so you can take everything back to stock if you junk it up too much.

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

Is that "my back up" an app or did you save that under cwm back up? If you saved it in cwm, you can access that through recovery. If its an app, you should be able to download it from the market again, and it may have saved what ever for you. If you get to the market and says you have it, you should be able to choose to run it from there or uninstall. Again, if you get Astro, you should be able to find your back up on your external sd card.

i was using " go launcher ex "

when i went into the market it didn't show any of the missing app, but the missing apps still have a short cup on the app drawer with out the actual app icons.

" MyBackup is a app by rerware, LLC " they have 3 versions " MyBackup/MyBackup Root/MyBackupPro$4.99 " is like TI Backup

I've tried going back to the market to download and reinstall the MyBackup app so i can restore my apps+data/contacts/system data but it tend to freeze

so i use the browser to google the app, i found the apk file on google and download it w/o any delay so i thought something is wrong with my market app

once the download of the mybackup app completed i tried to install it and thats when the other problem happen, it won't install. i tried to install it a few times and each time i'll wait 2-7 minutes and it still no install.

at 1st i thought it was something wrong with the apk file so i tried to install the revotoolkit.apk i've downloaded and installed w/o any problems earlier but didn't install this time and it just froze like the mybackup.apk

so i tried the troubleshot in the order i did on my 1st post

thanx alot for the reply markapowell

if you can think of something please let me know
[LG Revolution] markapowell:
Well, that is beyond my already lack of expertize. Sounds like you might be missing some LG file from the factory. For instance, when we got the phone we had a list of freezable goodies. Well one of the programs you would freeze would kill Bluetooth, but it would have been a program that should have never controlled that function. So you may have offed something that was connected to how you see things in the drawer. How to solve it, is beyond me, without looking at the phone.
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
i tried flashing revolt 1.0-1.4, rehome 1.0/1.1, decrap 1.1 nothing fix any issues

then while i'm still on decrap 1.1 i finally found a way to get the revo to be connect to my pc with internet connection and debug on last nite

revo turned off and make sure it's in auto internet connection with debug on before i turned the revo

then connect to pc " pc is on " before i turn the revo back on

once the revo established internet connection w debug on i started s1c v2.1.1 to unroot it

then i use LGNST to update with the v6 tot file instead of doing a downgrade to v4

after update finished i reboot then try to download apps from the market, same thing as before it wouldnt download or install. so the problem wasn't fix on the market

then i check the other settings like my 1st post and its still the same thing, all the problems still there nothing was fixed on the v6 firmware

so i just dont bother with it anymore since the stock firmware didnt fix anything i know i broke something not sure what

then i just went to a verizon store told them the issues, they check the phone firmware just to make sure it's stock and not rooted

"good thing the LGNST and the v4/v6 tot brings the phone back to original state "

then the verizon reps did a factory reset just to check if that would fix the issues and it didn't anything so they just going to send me another revo in a few days

i guess thats the only way to fix those issues

cant wait to get it and root again , if anything screws up i'll have to use LGNST again and bring it back to verizon

thanx again to mtmichealson and markapowell for the replies

huge thanx to hilong08 and nasirahmed posting the LGNST and stock firmware files and how to downgrade

Yah, sounds like you did all you could do. Glad you were able to take it back in. Good luck on the next one.
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
there's probably more i can like really dig into the system to find which files are missing but then again i'm not an IT tech i'm just a trucker and it'll be much easier for me to just revert it back to stock and have verizon send me a replacement
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
Did you ever try adb push in recovery to get my back up back?

Open command prompt to platform-tools folder hold shift and right click on platform-tool.and start command prompt there then run

adb devices (insures your connected debugging must be enabled)

adb pull /data/app/com.rerware.android.MyBackupPro-1.apk

(that will pull the apk to the platform-tools folder)

Now boot into recovery

adb devices (make sure you are connected and says recovery next to it)

adb push com.rerware.android.MyBackupPro-1.apk /data/app/com.rerware.android.MyBackupPro-1.apk

Of course that is for my backup pro not sure what you had but should be similar
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
nope i didn't try this method to push the MyBackup back to the revo

since i still have it i'll give it a shot see if that could fix it

when you mention" boot into recovery " do you mean go into cwm?

thanx for the reply
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
That is correct and the only reason you have to do that is because the revo won't let you adb remount...don't know why but push in recovery has worked for me sometimes I head to use root explorer to manually move it to where it needs to be like it might get put in /data and not /data/app
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
thank Beamer9408 for the quick reply

i'll downgrade to v4/root and try the adb later tonite
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
pushing adb work like a charm i got MyBackup back and tried reinstall some of my backup app+data and reinstall the system data that i backed up earlier

thanx beamer9408

but instead of pulling the app from adb i just google searched the MyBackup and revotoolkit and push through adb. it worked fine my revo instantly reconized the app i'd push and i didn't have to go into recovery

then i rebooted hoping it'll fix the issues but nope it didnt fix anything, the apps i backup is still there but i can't download/update/install apps from the market but the amazon appstore and browser can still download but it won't install also

so i don't what happened to my revo and why it won't install anything on it but i can push apps through adb

also it didn't fix the usb and other problems too i still have to have the phone turned off w debug and internet connection on then turn it back on inorder for it to be reconnize by the pc

any other ideas i can try before i return the phone? so we can try to solve it incase it happens to some other revo owners so they have somewhere to go to fix it

since i'll reflash revolt 1.5 again just to play with it some more, do anyone know about that v6 or v8 supercharger script thats suppose to help speed up the phone? and how would i apply it?

just wanna do some experimenting
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
I don't think we can use the super charge script
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
i've tried the v6 supercharge a few times last nite and i can't seem to load it with script manager

each time i try to load it the script manager it just go into force close even if i rebooted the revo

someone did do it on the revo posted in this link at the bottom of the tread and i did follow all directions too, didn't work

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1210041&page=93

it's wierd that each app i transfer to sd with the app " app2sd " will work but once i reboot, when i try to run the apps that i move to sd shows a message " cannot run application not install " and it won't show on the app drawer

is that a issue w revolt 1.5 or goLauncherEx?

another thing is while i try to transfer each app to sd with app2sd, the 1st try always says " error cannot move to sd " but on 2nd try it'll work? why it do that? is it because revolt 1.5 not really compatible with the app2sd app?
[LG Revolution] Beamer9408:
I'm using all of those apps and haven't had that problem
[LG Revolution] bhp117:
got my replacement last nite then did the whole routine again, downgrade v4> root s1c v2.1.1> flash revolt 1.5 w/o any issues played with it for a while before i load the v6 supercharger script

i installed the busybox installer app and install the 1.18.2 busybox version then load the v6 supercharger script through script manager and it works but i didnt notice much difference before and after the v6 supercharger maybe the revolt is already fast as is

i tried using the app2sd again and it didnt play nice w same issues as on my other revo so i downloaded the " gemini app manager " and it worked like a charm

i tend to like the gemini more not only it works but also i can move a batch of apps to sd instead of doing 1 at a time, also it have a block function that is same as freeze

so i don't need too many app

can't wait to see what the revo devs can do with GB rolling out tonite and hopefully mtmichealson and thecubed can get the cm7 ported over to the revo

since i still have both revo i'll try to update the 1 i'm going to send back to GB and play with before i send it back
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ToolPunk:
OK, so I have custom recovery and the Rooted Stock below. Can I theme it at all? If so, should I use metamorph or is there a better option? Or is it a no go and I need to have Weapons or some other custom ROM?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
You can, if you know how to do it yourself. Other than that why not just flash Weapon or Cm7?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ToolPunk:
I enjoyed the benifits of a custom ROM on my previous phone but I got so burnt out by constant bugs and instability. I use my phone like its part of me and for it to constantly have an issue of sorts is frustrating. I have another G2X coming that I will test a custom ROM on. Just thought I would see what I could do in the meantime, thank you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
Yeah I see. But since Weapon is based on the stock ROM it's very stable.

Hello everyone,

I currently have the Samsung galaxy s2 from att. I'm a sucker for white phones so my question is, would this international galaxy work on att? And does this site look safe to purchase from? Thanks

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBoyUK:
Hi! I managed to mess up my phone... so I installed the stock RUU for T-Mobile (my desire is on T-Mobile) so I could send it back and claim on the warranty. However, the device was rooted and had S-OFF (alpharev) and apparently the HBOOT is write protected so the RUU failed and now I'm stuck on the HTC logo with an exclamation mark in each corner. Obviously I can't send it back like this because it's rooted and has S-OFF which voids my warranty. Is there anything I can do to unroot it and/or get S-ON, then install the RUU? I've tried flashing a stock HBOOT to it via adb but it just gives me the error "error: device not found". Is there anything I can do? Thanks.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, the VOL-DOWN + POWER just boots up to the HTC logo rather than the menu, as does the BACK + POWER.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
if you tried to look you would have found your answer right on top of the Q&A forum
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBoyUK:
I assume you are referring to your guide, which I am reading right now. I did try the part about the RUU problems and flashing the Bravo Stock but nothing has changed at all. Flashed it using the utility, then tried to install the RUU again and I'm still presented with a HTC logo and 4 exclamation marks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Have you tried flashing a different RUU? create a goldcard and flash the latest WWE RUU (link on my guide). You will need to skip the part where they find the CID of the SDcard and use this tool (since you can't boot recovery). When you copy down the CID, copy it without the spaces, commas etc. just letters and numbers. Then follow on from the tutorial for the goldcard.

When you've amde the goldcard, run the RUU and it should fix it for you.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBoyUK:
I already had a goldcard, and was using that RUU so I had no idea what went wrong. Ran the whole process again (about 3 times) and it works! Thank you!

All the songs That I have on my phone has the same background cover for every songs, how do I remove it ALL? I have sense 3.5 on my phone. RcMix v3.1
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Most likely you have a picture saved in your music folder. And since your songs do not have an embedded album art for each song it is using that pic for everything. I myself do not use a hidden jpeg pic for album art. I embed each song's tag with an album art when I rip it. If I have to add an album art for each song after being ripped I use dBpoweramp(not free) or MP3Tag(free).
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I use droID3Tagger. It's free in the market and will search for and embed album art into the song.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I will have to check that out fernandezhjr. That may come in real handy. ;)

Edit: DroID3Tagger works well, but only works if the music files are MP3. I also gave another app called Audio Tagger a try and it works well also. Plus it does other formats besides MP3s. Both apps are top notch and will fix up your music library in no time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] glitchsys:
So since there's only about 5 or 6 custom ROM's at the moment I took the liberty of creating a quick site to compare the ROM's. I put them in a comparison table side-by-side, put a link to download them (off my own site [so this can be used as a mirror]) and put a link to my own personal thoughts/semi-informal review of each ROM and included screen-shots of the ROM (90% of it I took myself).

I wanted to share the link/site with you to see what you think. I'm going to try and stay on top of updates and such, and each page on the site has a way for you to leave a comment. So if you have any suggestions or problems, feel free to comment there (or here). Also, if you want to submit your own review, thoughts, suggestions, etc. the site has a way for you to post it and I can look it over and publish it. I'd love for this not to be a one man show. If you have extensive experience with one of the ROM's and want to throw in your own review, post it there and I'll make it live and link to it in the comparison table.

I know I'm going to get blasted, told how stupid and useless the site is, etc. etc. and I'm prepared for that, but maybe you could also include a quick note on why it's stupid, what I need to add, how better to improve it, etc. you know, constructive criticism. I do know it's ugly and using a crappy default skin, but I was more concerned on getting content in there right now vs the look and feel of the actual thing; I'll get around to it, eventually. Anyways, I'm only trying to help.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
It seems really detailed and gives users a quick comparison on what roms are available and what they offer all in one shot. You didnt offer a score or say which one YOU liked best in hoped that the viewer will make up his/her own mind and try the roms for themselves... and because of this, I like your post!

One suggestion, I would have liked a few more screenshots of UnNamed.

However, this isnt a developmental thread (just a comparison chart) and it probably needs to go in general... and perhaps even stickied (as long as this list gets updated) or at least linked/referenced in the FAQ in the General forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] glitchsys:
Thanks

Thanks for the feedback :-) Yeah I was wondering if it should go in this forum or the general one. I can re-post it there if you want and you can delete this thread, I'm far from a developer (but have great respect for those guys), just a power user. I do plan on staying on top of updates, with only 5 or so ROM's it's not that difficult at the moment).

RE: comparisons

Your idea is very good one but I was a bit disappointed because when I first

saw this new thread I was almost sure that you had a simular idea as I had.

I have spent countless hours of testing almost every aspect of ALL the

custom roms which are currently available for our phones including CM7.

So I was hoping when I first saw this new thread that that's what you had

in mind too and that you wrote a comprehensive comparison report of each

and every rom letting everyone know your opinion of the pro's and con's of

each.

It would not be that diffult to do since there are only five custom roms.

(P.S. The UnNamed custom rom is by far the very best and most error free, but please don't tell anyone I said so.) :)

did you click on the more info button at the bottom? I put a few personal observations and notes for each from and included screenshots, I plan to edit that regularly and update it with a more comprehensive review as I go along. I have installed each rom ( to get screenshots and initial impressions) including cm7, but will admit I have not spent a lot of time in each rom except for unnamed. I will be running serendipity for the next 24 hours or so, followed by cognition then followed by perception. if you have written comprehensive reviews on the roms and want to join forces I would more than welcome that.
