[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Don't kid yourself. All it takes is roughly 20 minutes to set up and build your first ROM. It requires no skill, no college degree, and no unearthly talent. Virtually anyone could do it.

While it does take a bit more knowledge to port things over, the end result is always lackluster and very much lacks in the "I_need_a_working_stable_phone_where_all_things_included_with_it_actually_work_as_described" category. There's nothing more annoying than needing your phone at a particular time only to discover that one of a few things are happening:

-your phone has managed to lock up

-your phone is in the middle of a random reboot

-your phone has a missing feature that doesn't work because of the ROM you're using

I suppose all the ridiculous disclaimers (who's seriously going to go after a person for not having one?) try and warn you, but the cute taglines trump the disclaimer anyway. :P

There are few development projects going on. However, there are plenty of "let me try and frankenROM a bunch of crap together, throw it into a cute thread with a tagline indicating that it's a work in progress and that there are nightlies."

Judging by the number of replies these threads get, you can deduct the following:

-the average person on XDA doesn't have a smartphone for it to work properly.

-the average person on XDA enjoys interacting with other people on a thread even though it's mainly a bunch of back and forth replies that are limited to such wording as "yeah, ___ is broken for me too", " _insert_app_here doesn't work properly and fcs a lot"

I don't know about you, but I'm not the average XDA person and I most definitely enjoy having a working phone, so with that said--Stock ROM with modifications is all that's required to satisfy me.

To be honest, there isn't anything exciting going on aside from chad's kernel development.

This is not directed at any one person, and the true developers know that this isn't about them. Quite frankly, we need this type of work going on because it pushes the envelope and tells companies like HTC that we won't settle for less and know damn well that it's possible to push our phones further than they would have us think. Which is why sometimes, HTC gets caught with their pants down and are forced to give in. EVO 4G fps fix anyone? So I do appreciate all types of work that goes on here at XDA. But there will always be a small percentage that are in it for the internet fame (and they seem to get it quite frequently) and really bring nothing to the table except a bringing together of various other people's works.

[LG Optimus Black] Malfreds:
Hi there,

I bought an Optimus Black rooted and it has several programs and stuff.

At the beginning didn't care too much about it, but now I realize that I cannot use my gmail account because it always asks for the previous owner account, and searching I found that I need to factory reset in order to change default gmail account.

So I went to reset and it goes to a clockwork recovery program and I'm not able to select any option because it's asking for E: from previous owner (I found obvious I think), so I had to reset the phone and nothing changed when it comes back.

As you can see I'm totally noob with these android mods, but I was an experimented SE/Nokia user, so phone modding is not new to me in some sense, meaning I can learn quickly.

My question is: Is it possible to unroot my phone? Although I don't have any kind of recovery data, backup or history of what has been done in this phone.

I don't care about software already installed, as I mention I can start over again with my own style.

I'd appreciate your help here so I can start safe.

Thank you.
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
what ROM do you use?

check it in setting-about phone

if it's 10a/b, you can unroot using gingerbreak
[LG Optimus Black] Malfreds:
LOL, made me check deep to see what is my phone.

This is what I found:

Android 2.2.2

Base band XMM6160

Kernel 2.6.32

Compilation FRG83G

SW Nova v7
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
If it's Nova then SU is preinstalled in the system. Even you factory reset it SU will be there as well as preinstalled app that came with it. Might as well flash a stock (KDZ) if you want a fresh one. Cause Nova depends on SU for some apps.
[LG Optimus Black] Malfreds:
Sorry for late response, I was pretty busy in other stuff.

Understood. It is possible if you can point me out to a specific tutorial to start how to flash a stock, as you mention?

Thanks in advance.

[LG Optimus Black] PinkPantherRO:
Not necessarily. For reasons that are beyond me, I was unable to root my v10b OB using Gingerbreak v1.20, instead using SuperOneClick v1.9.5 (not v2.2.1) to do that.

I do know that, supposedly, for v10a and v10b Gingerbreak should work and that for v10c+ Blackjack or SuperOneClick v2.2.1 should do the trick. But none of those worked for me.

Just pointing that out. :)
[LG Optimus Black] Malfreds:
Thanks guys.

I followed that link and searching on it I found this tutorial:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1111771&page=3

Three questions:

If I follow it and I flash the kdz that I choose (local carrier), I will get my fresh phone? Even that I have SU, Nova and Clock recovery installed?

Is it ok if the kdz file for my local carrier is V10A_03.kdz? Instead of V10A_00.kdz

What if I try gingerbreak and select unroot, then factory reset? SU will remain?

Thanks again for your help.
[LG Optimus Black] PinkPantherRO:
1.) Yes, you will get a fresh phone, but with no root access, and with the stock kernel and 2.2 Froyo on it.

2.) No idea.

3.) Not sure Gingerbreak will work for your phone, but if it does and you unroot, clearly the su will not work anymore. That's what the root is all about, granting you, the user, the lowest level point of access, and if you unroot, the application will no longer be able to reach that point. So SuperUser and any other applications relying on root access, such as SetCPU or Terminal Emulator etc. will not work.
[LG Optimus Black] Malfreds:
Quick question.

I couldn't make factory reset due to Clock recovery, as I stated in the first post. How should I do the "wipeout all data before start flashing" ?

My goal is to change default gmail account in order to install more apps, but I'm not able to do it because I need to factory reset. Maybe there is another way instead of fresh flashing.

Thanks.
[LG Optimus Black] quyTam:
if you are root (I think it's your case):

- install "rom manager".

- in rom manager : choose "restart in recovery"

° if you don't have recovery : it will do a factory reset

° if you havec recovery installed, use the volume key to navigate to the wipe option and wipe everything (except sd)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
since now I'm in vacation so I'll do some tests this week and see if I'm able to compile an unroot process file

hello, I also have problem with rooting as well

I have the ver 2.2.2 10D

the link for the blackjack is not available to download

I have tried to fool the server which not allowed me to download the file

but the file size which I download is different than the stated size which 4.9mb

I can;t start the program, which do not seems to be doing anything

and the help (explanation) for blackjack program are very limited

any ideas
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
well there is no really explanations needed. just enable usb debugging, plug, and launch the process.

were did you get the one you have ? here the link

actual blackjack is v1.1 in 1.54mo. the file is a part of UPK
[LG Optimus Black] franklynlaw:
this is what happen when I click on the link

"This service is temporarily not available from your service area"

would there be other link to download???

the service is not being available since Oct

are there anyone be so kind can upload the file to a different server

[EVO 4G General] gamendorf:
Sorry for the long story, but I'm trying to accurately describe the scenario. Sprint basically told me I'm SOL:

I'm running Synergy RLS1 (non-Godmode) when I went in to get my phone number changed to a local area code. The Sprint guy did all of his fun stuff, but when he went to do "Update Profile", it wouldn't run correctly. He said that he had seen the same issue with other Roms, but that the easy thing to do was to flash the stock, Update Profile, and then re-flash Synergy.

Did that, got the number changed, Synergy set up again via Titanium, and all was good. But, I noticed that I would not get any notifications (or anything at all for that matter) in Visual Voicemail. I can hold down 1 and do my voicemail the old fashioned way. The biggest issue is that I don't get any prompting at all that a voicemail is on the server.

I called Sprint Tech Support, and they told me to go to a Repair Center. So, like a good boy scout, I was prepared!! I un-rooted and re-installed stock Gingerbread and recovery. Sprint kept it overnight, and this morning they gave it back to me and said that since I had previously rooted the phone, they couldn't help me anymore. Furthermore, when they gave it back to me, it had Synergy loaded with my custom lock-rings and all. (I guess for some reason they restored a Nandroid from my SD).

That's the back story. Here is where I am right now... Stock Gingerbread Rom and Stock recovery. Nothing added to the phone except Netflix. Voicemail acts the same way as it did above: (no notifications when voicemails come in, and nothing in Visual Voicemail. But, holding 1 works) Any ideas on how to get this fixed? I have already tried re-installing the apk. I have sent a black 1 second message to activate@vmm.sprint.com many times. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

(again, sorry for the long post. Just trying to be thurough)

SD Card 2GB

Baseband .71

Locked Bootloader

Custom Rom

New Android user (3 weeks i guess)

The problem:

I was having fun with my phone, new rom and etc.

I was in xRecovery, so i deleted the /system folder by mistake. Im a idiot, i know.

Now, SEUS or PC Companion cant help me. They say that i already have the latest update.

I have some custom roms, FlashTool and other things downloaded. If it helps.

I dont know what to do.

The phone are stuck on Sony screen. Of course.

Now, i need help.

Sorry for my trash english.

Best regards,

Scarlet.

Edit: I forgot: I cant boot on Safe Mode or xRecovery too.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] necrohades:
if you can still boot and go to xRecovery, then you can simply restore one of your backups. or if not, you can try to flash using flashtool.

try xRecovery restore first.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] dw9906:
I'm getting a G2X in a couple days. Got a couple questions to ask.

1. Which one should i NVflash, CWM 5.0.2.0 or CWM 4.0.1.5? What's the difference between the two, just internal and external sd support?

2. What is everyones preferred CyanogenMod performance settings? What runs the best?

3. What Rom do you prefer besides CM?

Thanks ahead of time for feedback. I'm not a n00b whatsoever. Just new to LG development. I'm gonna build CM myself. Unless someone convinces me there is a better Rom to use. :) Once i learn more about the LG G2X then ill probably make a Rom for it.

Flash 5.0.2.0. It supports ext4 and can flash from internal or external sd card. The other one you mentioned is very outdated.
