[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattDN93:
So I've been having GPS issues, yeah I know, flash the radio I got told, used fake flash CWM 2.x to do it, somehow it didn't work... (said "successful" but radio version in "about phone" didn't change)

BUT apart from that,

more importantly

, since then whenever I use ROM Manager (v4.8.0.2) and select "Backup Current ROM" it

boots into CWM 5.0.2.0

Starts backing everything up

Get's to near the end and says "ERROR in backing up \sdcard\.android_secure"

Then it says please see the log

Then when I reboot into CM7 in Rom Manager the backup is there...

My question: I have enough SD Card space, and Nandroid backups went fine until I tried flashing the new radio...does this error I'm getting affect me being able to flash that Nandroid backup, is it corrupted? Or can I just ignore the error?

Thanks!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ankurcul:
First of all format ur sd card in fat32 format using ur PC...then try again and if problem persists try another SD card....

For radio one try to flash new version or downgrade to older one...u can get it from shipped-rom.com or I'll attach it after few hours...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattDN93:
The SD card doesn't need formatting cause it worked fine like a day ago...? And it's in FAT32 already...

Shipped-ROMs doesn't offer radios, just RUU's which I don't really want, my ROM is fine it's just the radio...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slymobi:
Try a nandroid back up in normal phone recovery instead of using rom manager and see if it completes with no errors.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattDN93:
Hmmm that's odd, it worked fine doing it that way...thanks :) Maybe it was that the Revolutionary CWM is 4.x and Rom Manager is 5.x although why it stopped before is beyond me...it's working fine thru normal recovery though :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ankurcul:
@mattDN93-hey bro just download this radio version from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Wildfire:_Support_Downloads

Hello xda every I have an major problem I tried to flash an rom today via the rom manager app and cleared cache and others that was requires now I cannOt get into recovery mode it's just shows the htc logo and boots up regular but I can acres fastboot I'm on 1.50 s-on all help would be very appreciated other i I searched other threads to no avail
[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
If you tried flashing a rom with a custom kernel through rom manager it won't work. You have to flash that through fastboot. You say that your phone "boots up regular" as in boots into android?
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Not all of your infmration is easy to follow or understand.

Essentially, if you're looking to flash a kernel or ROM (which many times also include a kernel), there are three basic methods (two seem the easier) with hboot 1.50 and htc's unlock method:

1) For Kernel Flashing: From Android mode, using my application, Flash Image GUI. Put the kernel .zip file on your sdcard, select from inside the application and flash.

If flashing a ROM, pull out the kernel file (usually named boot.img), push to sdcard and flash using Flash Image GUI.

If you're away from a computer and want to flash a kernel, this is a great tool.

2) Load the custom recovery, NOT using the traditional method (reboot recovery, bootloader -> recovery, etc), but a specific method for Hboot 1.5. From the prompt use: fastboot boot c:\downloads\cwm-recovery.img.

This will temporarily boot the custom recovery image and the HTC unlock method will grant it write access to the boot partition while in this mode.

In this temporarily booted recovery mode, when a full ROM (with kernel included) is flashed, the kernel will flash correctly.

3) Boot into recovery using the traditional methods, reboot recovery, bootloader -> recovery, etc, and after the custom recovery has loaded, flash the ROM. Reboot into fastboot mode and then separately flash the kernel from the computer: fastboot flash boot c:\boot.img.

Downside to this method would be if a zImage is included instead of the boot.img for the kernel, won't flash correctly.

If you're issues are with not entering a custom recovery mode when following step 3, there are a few options. If you're able to boot into normal android mode w/o any issues and you seem familar with ROM manager, flash the custom recovery again from there.

My app, Flash Image GUI, also offers the same feature, select the recovery.img or PG86IMG.zip file off the sdcard and Flash Image GUI will flash it.

Another option is to flash it via fastboot: fastboot flash recovery c:\downloads\cwm-recovery.img

Hope that helps clarify!
[HTC EVO 3D] Sofocused504:
yes i meant boots into android regular just cannot get into custom recover I navigate to it and press power the htc logo appears and the phone shuts itself off and booth back into android
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
If the device does not make it past the splash screen this usually indicates a bad kernel (or ramdisk) or bad flash.

Either flash the same recovery file again or download a new recovery file.

Sometimes a bad flash can occur, usually rare. Sometimes the recovery file can corrupt while downloading, usually rare. But these things do occur.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
After using Samsung stock ROMs for over a year I finally switched to CM7.1(Stable) last week. But the battery life I'm getting now is not as good what I used to get with Samsung stock ROMs. With JVT I easily got 24hrs, but now I cant go beyond 15hrs with same usage patterns (3G during day and WiFi at night, few short calls and around 50 SMSs, with a bit of web browsing and some online audio streaming). Did anyone else notice a similar battery life drop going from a recent stock ROM to CM7.1 ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harpsichord3626:
I ran the CM7 nightlies until recently and came back to JVT because of battery life and the hello hello bug. I use my phone as a music player for most of the day and find that stock ROMs hardly deplete the battery at all, with CM7 I was getting the same sort of life as you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uguru:
For me, CM 7.1 Stable drains battery a lot. I've changed to JVP modem and it seems to be a bit longer, maybe I'll try with Fugu kernel.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
Looks like I'll be going back to JVT. Idling battery drain is way too much. For example I charged it around 8 last night and by 12 noon today, battery is down to 45% mostly just idling and few texts. This is as bad as original eclair release came with the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redzone321:
I personaly dont find there to be a huge difference but i am on Bell which is HSPA only (3G all the time)

i find i always have to recharge by 4 pm (8 am wake up) but i am a heavy user. I am waiting for my extended battery so i can make it through a day.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhoenixFx:
What was the last stock ROM you used ? I used to get similar battery life with earlier ROMs, sometimes I had to charge it twice in a day depending on usage. But with recent ROMs (2.3.3 and up), I ever hardly charged it twice, despite very heavy use (more than an hour of calling , GSM/VOIP, about an hour of internet audio streaming etc..). IMO stock ROMs are really good at idle power consumption, I have managed to get 2 days with light use, a full day with moderate use and more than 10hrs with heavy use.

EDIT : CM7 is smoother and quicker; I also like the customizability. I’ll again give it a try when ICS comes out , but till then I'm back to Samsung Stock, because poor battery life simply kills the experience for me. Perhaps I can squeeze couple of hours more with some tweaks, but I doubt it'll be as good as JVT.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcagara08:
I myself have come back to 2.3.5 xxjvt cos coming from cm7.1 and darky 10.2 final..i should say stock rom can have a standby time of more than 24hours believe that..otherwise ics might have a lot more to over than gingerbread

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdymel:
Hi,

I got my shiny arc s yesterday and first thing I did was, I unlocked the boot loader and rooted it (I'm now on 4.0.1.A.0.266). Now I would like to install CM7 (FXP045) and it all gets very confusing. Please tell me if I understand it correctly - don't want to add new thread "I have bricked it" ;)

I should download the SEMC 4.0.2.A.0.42 rom and flash it using flashtool. Then I should get FXP045 rom and flash it using howto from CM site.

Is that right?

Thanks in advance! I am new to all of that..

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extract1:
Try This:

If you think your phone may be bricked and wont turn on, try a soft reset (possibly followed by a hard reset)

1. Take out the battery, then press and hold the ON button for about 10 seconds or so. Replace the battery, then press ON button to try to switch on. This is a soft reset, and wipes the temporary memory and empties all remaining power in the circuits.

2. If this does not work, do as above but after inserting the battery, press and hold the ON+HOME buttons at the same time for 10 seconds or so again. This is a hard reset, and works best if done after a soft reset, so always try the soft reset first.

[HTC Sensation] Blodoffer:
I have been using my Sensation for a 3 months now and have noticed the idle battery usage very high and barely get through the day without touching my phone. Well that's probably my own fault for having this and that syncing and downloading all the time. And my suspicions were correct, because when I turn data and WiFi off the battery could last forever. Understandable.

What really bothers me is that when screen is on the juice just disappears. It's just 2 to 2,5 hours of screen being on (web browsing, playing games etc.) to make the battery completely dead. This is pretty much my first actual smartphone and I understand that such a big screen takes it's toll, but is that normal?

I have the AUO screen.
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
Sounds about right to me. Have never used my screen for two hours straight, but I'm at 36% for about an hour and thirty minutes of screen being on with an Anker battery.

Regarding the syncing, you could probably try juice defense and see if that helps you any.

Hi,

There has been a lot of talk about poor battery life,and it is mostly attributable to the kernel.

My best suggestion is to update your kernel to:

1.Faux's latest...in my sig

2.Bricked 1.41r has had good reviews...HERE

Make a nandroid backup,

wipe cache and dalvik,

flash kernel,like a ROM,

reboot.

What should i do?

Have you enabled USB debugging. And have drivers installed. And pls check with the older version of flashtool. Some ppl have used it and solved their problem.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holyjacky:
USB debugging is on and the latest drivers are installed but doomlord zergrush exploit still prompting adb server is out of date..

I tried using flashtool 0.2.9.1 but it also cannot recognise my phone..

After manually choose the device as x10 it din show my busybox version as none instead of leave it blank...I think the problem is my phone cannot be recognise...

What should i do the next?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuner520:
did you flash 2.1 with appropriate kernel and baseband? baseband .49 was one of the most developed one.

You probably need to reflash an older 2.1 with an older basband and kernel... then start from there by rooting it and installing xrecovery 3...

go here and find an older 2.1 generic to start off of, I think the files come with its own flashtool, kernel, and baseband

Also, on the page linked above, the 2.1 generics are in the second section "all branded kits for X10i". Maybe use file number 8 since I recall specific roms like Orange UK X10 kits had strange behavior with foreign sims and rooting

after flashing the older 2.1, root and install xrecovery with newest flashtool (v3?)... from there, you can go into custom pre-rooted 2.1 to 2.3 roms.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holyjacky:
i flashed back to 2.1 but the flashtool still do not recognise my phone..

So i can't root it with flash tool..

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuner520:
Inside the new Flashtool (V3 and above), you should find gordons gate drivers (GG drivers) in the drivers folder, did you install that and update drivers?

@all

I have helped in this case.

I have been through the process of checking noob mistakes with him and also checking that adb is up todate. Both with gordons gate and pccompanion/seus.

Furthermore i have tried manually updating drivers through device manager

my personal opinion is a faulty phone or or incompatability with windows (32/64 bit) but i am not knowlagable in this area, this is why I asked him to seek help elsewhere....
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holyjacky:
Before I update to 2.3.3 I managed to root my x10 with FW 2.1

After I install pre-rooted rom I have no problem at all

gregbradley,u said my phone may be a faulty phone,so should i send my phone to shop for repair?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tuner520:
Did you try on another pc?

Did you wipe x10 device id in registry?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] orsonbear:
Hi! I'm found a workaround to get rid of the "black screen bug" awaking the phone.

The concept is to force fill the framebuffer with the right bitmap each time you awake the phone pressing a key.

This job is well done by an app that automatically set the background each time you awake the phone, forcing the graphic driver to make the right job.

For my tests I have choosed Automatic Wallpaper Changer by Ohanasiya. The settings:

- (ON) change wallpaper at screen off

- update interval: 24 hours

- Wallpaper to display: only one if you want a wallpaper that doesn't changes automatically.

I have tried 50 times to get a blackscreen bug but it don't happened! I'm yet testing for the app's battery drain, if it's too high I will try another app that makes the same job.

Cheers!
