Ups backup is required for ur pc so that in case ur current goes off in midway you dont endup in bricking ur fone.

Yes ftf needs to be placed inside firmwire folder.

Open flashtool.re.keep it running.

Shut down your phone ,connect the data cable to phone,keep the back button pressed and insert the data cable to usb port. Your led will turn green. Goto flash and browse firmwire folder to select the ftf file.

Enjoy flashing!!!

"in case my current"=my pc turns off? quit the process in midway? i didnt really understand.

i cannot shut down my phone because its turning on and off automaticly till SE screen..

i figured out how to flash by conecting in without the battery and, press back button while puting on the battery (i hope it will work)

"flashtool.re.keep" -what this means?

but my main problem now is that i cant know what is my battery status (you need at least 50%- so i cant flush untill i find a solution for that..)

any help please??

Tnaks!!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aR_ChRiS:
Yes you can enter flash mode by removing the battery and plugging it in, hold back button then insert the battery.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Painkille5:
thats what i said i already know..

can you answer me to the rest of my questions please?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] milton.bain:
I mean, ups is required so that evem your power supply/electricity goes off, you can carry on your work.

You can use external battery charger to charge your battery only.

Before flashing,pull out your battery...as you said.

Last resort: if all fails, go to se service center, they will repair it. They use the same pc companion. When i tried to flash my fone earlier,i was a dumb fella. I bricked it. Took it to service center and got it fixed.

Before flashing, watch doomlord's video of flasing at least 4 times. Then read the instructions and flash, keep the video running and pause at required places. This is how i flashed successfully on next instance.

Hi mate if you think you backed up properly from xrecovery and it still in sd card, use card reader to retrieve it to pc. The file should be under sdcard/xrecovery/backup/xxxxx.zip. then try recover it from working phone with xrecovery. Hope this help n good luck.

Hi guys,

i´m new to the play, and have some questions:

1. it is only a problem with my play, that the snes emulator (snesoid)

runs not at fullspeed?

looks like it runs at 20fps with sometimes under 20fps...

i think, this cant be... with my droid it runs very smooth.

2. i´m on 2.3.4 nordic android, is it possible to oc the cpu?

phone is rooted and bootloader is unlocked.

thanks for reading and many thanks for a reply :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aranium:
Yes, use doomlord kernals and download setcpu to phone to overclock. Snesoid should run smooth without ocing cause I can't and it runs smoothly on me. I would mess with the options in the emulator.

As the title suggests I am stock gingerbread (the one pushed then oulled back). I would like to remain this way until cm7 has become official for the thunderbolt or at least until it has a few of the bugs ironed out in the rom so we don't have to flash fixes.

Anyway I am familiar with the method of renaming otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak and I have done that.

I wonder if others have had success blocking ota's with that method?

Is anyone familiar with a better method?
[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
well, renaming files at least works for boot animations & such, so i don't see why it wouldn't work for that ota file. normally, if it's something i don't want/need, i'll either freeze it or remove it entirely. try 'Anttek App Manager'(it's free).

additionally, i wouldn't wait around on an "official" CM7 for the Thunderbolt as that may never happen. i find at least that the latest 'SHIFTAO5P" roms that dhacker is now working on are the most stable ones and seem to have everything working ok.

I got a OTA request right before I updated from Stock Rooted Gingerbread to the current stock rooted.

Now I'm on the current version same as OTA but rooted, renamed otacert.zip.bak but still had in the software update "deferred update pending".

Not sure how to stop this. Any help appreciated.
[Thunderbolt General] jimmiet:
Can't u accept the OTA n just reinstall Superuser as long as ur S-Off? Been awhile so I can't remember. :)
[Thunderbolt General] Tantalin:
I accepted the OTA this evening & now I'm stuck. It shut down to then reboot & I ended up stuck at the triangle ! screen for over an hour.

Removing the battery & turning it on allows me to get it back, but as soon as the system is loaded it powers down again to complete the update...

Rooted via Revolutionary method & I'm stuck until someone with more xp comes along & can point me in the correct direction.

My bad.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
Rev method copies its own version of hboot and does not allow an OTA to copy over its own version. I could be completely wrong since i didnt use Revo to root my phone but you may want to try powering to hboot menu if you can power on you can get there, and try flashing the rooted version after full system wipe.

[Thunderbolt General] recDNA:
Could you just restore a nandroid?

I noticed when I updated manually (with help from mike and grlantern) that the file I had renamed otacerts.zip.bak is now back to otacerts.zip. I don't know if the update process created a new version or what but the date next to the zip folder is August, not October.

Is it possible for you to get to hboot by holding volume down as you push power key, then choose recovery, then restore to a nandroid (assuming you ever backed up your rooted rom).

I'm not sure if recovery will still be available though if the update made you s-on.

I'm no expert so perhaps you may want to wait for grlantern to chime in.
[Thunderbolt General] Grnlantern79:
1. Have you ever looked at other files in there or files in windows. They don't update files that don't need updates so some files could be from launch of Thunderbolt if the file did not need an update.

2. Revo protects you from an RUU gaining S-On with its version of Hboot. I think the process of returning to stock by flashing an RUU is just for the ADB method which is what I used. I think Revo has to use a different method to regain stock.

[Thunderbolt General] Fastlivin:
I'm in the same pickle as tantalin. Let me ask some dumb questions:

- I can get to the CWM recovery screen. Are you saying I could do a factory re-set, then restore the ROM pre-update? Would I have to have backed up before the OTA (which I didn't, as I only rooted yesterday...argh).

Thanks for your help.
[Thunderbolt General] recDNA:
Keep in mind Im a beginner too so you may want to wait for someone with more experience.

CHECK WITH AN EXPERIENCED USER BEFORE FOLLOWING MY DIRECTIONSDIRECTIONS

Yes, you would have had to have a rom to restore to. You could try wiping data, cache, and dalvik cache but I don't know whether phone would boot.

Another alternative would be to shut off phone, take out flash card, copy a custom rom like bamf forever 1.0.8 or the rooted version of the update on the sdcard. Put sdcard back in phone, turn on phone whole holding volume key down. Go to recovery. Wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache (under advanced choices)Choose instal from sdcard. Browse to custom rom you put on sdcard. Choose it and install.

Keep in mind Im a beginner too so you may want to wait for someone with more experience.
[Thunderbolt General] Fastlivin:
TOTALLY INADVERTENT SUCCESS!!

I booted into clockworkmod recovery, deleted the cache partition, then under "advanced", I deleted the dalvik cache. I have literally no idea what either of these two things are, but since a factory reset was my worst case scenario, jimmy cracked corn and I didn't care.

Rebooted recovery (accidentally), then rebooted the phone. An error message saying the update failed! Happy day!

Now I can back the phone up properly, and go forward. So worried I'd lose all my apps and information not backed up to my Exchange server! Phew!!!!
[Thunderbolt General] LeftyGR:
If you have a rooted stock phone, and then you accept an OTA or load an RUU, you WILL lose root and the custom recovery program. But you SHOULD still be S-Off. If you are in that position right now, you need to re-flash the custom recovery to be able reload the SU app to regain root.

If you are actually back in S-on, you need to restart the root process from the beginning.

THEN BACK UP IMMEDIATELY BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE....

[Thunderbolt General] shovelheadhd:
I ended up in the exact situation as the op. I went back to stock rooted with perm S-Off and the update got pushed to my phone.

When I noticed the phone trying to update but stuck at the screen you are describing I pulled the battery and went into recovery from hboot. In recovery under mounts there is an option to turn on sd storage or something like that. I've used it before so I knew it would allow me to access the sd card from pc. I then downloaded the rooted rom of the ota. Then I unmounted the phone from pc, rebooted recovery, and went through the normal rom installation.
[Thunderbolt General] bond32:
The only issue to me seems if you have something on the phone not backed up you want to keep. Even if the update installs and it updates the bootloader back to s-on, revolutionary root still works so you cam just re-root.

Edit: I recommend you head over to thunderboltforums to at least restore the bootloader to stock s-off if you want to accept the update and re-root.
[Thunderbolt General] recDNA:

[Thunderbolt General] bond32:
http://www.thunderboltforums.com/fo...uide-how-return-stock-revolutionary-root.html

Check this out. I am not really sure what happens with the revolutionary bootloader if you update so I took those steps to return it just before you put s-on, so you still have a s-off bootloader. Then just let the update install or back up your stuff and install the full ruu by downloading it and renaming it to PG05IMG.zip and put it on the root of the SD card, then reboot the phone to bootloader and let it install.

Have you installed the rooted version of the ota? That's what I did. It is my understanding that would also prevent the ota being pushed on us. Just make sure it is the rooted version.

Killasense is a custom rom that is similar to stock.

Most people love custom roms but I haven't found one yet that everything "works"..(vzw vvm, nfl live, my verizon, certificate installer are some of the things that work in some roms but not others.

Although I'm not happy with my data connectivity it has also been worse on roms I've tried (getting 3g in custom where I get lte with stock.

I gotta tell you it is fun installing and trying out different roms as long as you have a couple of stock nandroids to fall back on.

I installed GingerBread Rock, rooted version of the OTA, but I still have deferred update pending... It popped up while I was still on my previous rooted OTA .3.

This is very frustrating...

Had the same thing happen to me, even though I'm rooted and running a custom ROM. It started the update and then did the same thing.

Did the same procedure as above and was able to get the phone to boot, got the update failed notification and was able to use my phone.

Naturally, this happened on a day when I'm traveling... Timing could not have been worse, but I was able to manage. Discovered that using a pay phone sucks, it's been years since I've had to use one.
[Thunderbolt General] Jrocker23:
Milan, did you get the message I sent you. Did it work? Its most likely due to not wiping data when you went from .3 to .5.

I have never got the prompt to update so never saw an issue with it but since you were still on .3 when .5 went live, it was looking to update you to the latest. When you moved up top .5 the file was still in the phone and since its a custom rom it probably couldn't read it to cancel the update.

You can also use root explorer to find the update file and pull it off the phone.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bickers:
Hi

I've had my Desire HD for about 9 months now and have rooted it and been running Android Revolution HD. I have been running version 5.2.6 for a couple of months without hassles.

This morning my phone lost reception and wouldn't regain signal with out restarting the phone. Then about 5 minutes later it lost signal again, so I restarted it again and then this time it rebooted and said there was no SIM card. So I pulled out the SIM, blew it out and put back in and it worked, for 5 or so minutes.

I haven't done any updates or downloaded any apps or changed any settings between yesterday evening, when it was working perfectly, and now.

I thought perhaps an upgrade would solve the issue if it was software-related, so I did a nandroid backup and Titanium Backup and installed the new Android Revolution HD 6.1.3 - which looks awesome! But unfortunately the problem remains.

Sometimes I reset and it works for 5 minutes, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it shows the no SIM error. Sometimes turning it off for a few minutes and restarting it regains the signal, but it inevitably drops again.

I've had a bit of a Google and it seems some others have had similar problems with the Desire HD, but all the discussions are a bit vague and I couldn't be sure my problem is the same as another's. Some suggested replacing the SIM card, most ended up having their phone replaced by Vodafone. I thought perhaps the Vodafone Australia update had run itself and that had caused the problem, but then again the update was released in August (which I didn't install).

I'm hoping someone else with a DesireHD has had a similar problem or anyone has some ideas I could try.

If I have no luck I suppose I'll have to return the phone to original firmware and take it in for repair.

Thanks alot to all the developers on here who've enabled me to enjoy my Desire HD way more than if I was still stuck in Stock ROM land, I hope you can be of some assistance to me!

Cheers, Bickers
