I explained the problem in this thread;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1339016

but my lyer is still not working.

PLEASE guys HELP me out here I really don´t know how I can make my flyer work again.

After the step 15 in modacos instruction to ubdate to HC

"Flash your device's recovery with the patched-to-work-with-new-hboot revolutionary recovery - 'fastboot flash recovery revolutionary-cwm-4.0.1.4-flyer.hboot0010.img"

The flyer doesn´t boot anymore in recovery. I can go to Bootloader or Fastboot. No adb possible. When I try normal boot, Fyler stucks in White Htc logo.

What I could reach so far is the battery is now charged over 30%

please please please be so kind and give some advice. If my flyer doesn´t work anymore I will cry for 1 week an 2days.

THANKS

Hello. Is there a phone Huawei U8520 owners? What have problems and what is the firmware for solving these problems? Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] knulfie:
Hi,

I have the Huawei U8520. But it's the China Unicom version so there is no Android Market in it :( I have succesfully rooted the phone with Super One Click root. But I would like a stock rom / firmware from another U8520 with Android Market. For example Australia or Taiwanese version the schould have Android Market.

Please help!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] VangerX:
Ruth I did not. And as the phone itself? Is reset? Battery as a lead? And APN is included?

Hello All

I have the same phone u8520, the phone have not android market in the Andriod Chinese version 2.2 and i need to upgrade root to android 2.3 or higher.

How i can get the ROM ?

How i can install it ?

Please help

thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] VangerX:
I'm at it until it met the android 2.3. Maybe someone will pull out of the Huawei Honor weather widget and watch?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] VangerX:
Holders of U8520 did not appear even to him the android 2.3?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ayanw2000:
Hi knulfie,

How did you root using SuperOneClick? I just tried using SuperOneClick 2.3.3 on Windows XP PC. And the application freezes at "restarting ADB server...". Maybe needs drivers or something?

BTW, my 8520 is Australia version with android 2.2.2, and have android market. I'll try to dump the firmware if it can be rooted.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] IdeosDev:
Did you installed the usb driver and did you enabled the USB DEBUGGING ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mr_mufy:
I did u have sucessul dump the rom? and do the root?

I can't root my device to.

I have all the drivers installed and the debuging on, but i can't do the root...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
Just a heads up that I updated my Honeycomb Leak Install guide to cover a new leak I have managed to get my hands on, version 3.48.405.1.

Full details can be found in this topic. :)

Unfortunately you will need to roll back to Gingerbread in order to install it.

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
Paul, is this supposed to be November 10 leak or October 10 leak?

Thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
November. ;)

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Mh, sure? You said the same for the last update-leak and I didn't made it and it worked?!

I will try it without an rollback... :eek:

EDIT: And did someone see any changes?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Just updated the last leak last night. Timing is everything
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
I should add 'unless you are s-off'.

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Oh, I am not S-OFF but I didn't flash the new HBOOT and Radio. And so long I have no problems with it, I will stay with my old ones...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
I see, so you don't have the new hboot, the new radio, the new boot (and therefore the latest kernel) and probably not the latest WiFi module.

I would personally class that as not having fully upgraded to the latest leak but hey...

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I know this is likely subjective but what are the improvements from the last leak? It had only been 8 days
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
I would guess that the release version is pretty close now.

I'll flash the system image over my existing install and do the complete rollback install later.

Thanks to Paul and his mysterious source for the leak.

Now when will someone get working on an ICS mod for us? I would but I don't have the skills to do it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Correct and when I have enough time, I will rollback and update all. But until this moment, I have already a working new ROM with an old radio.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
So you are just Fastboot flashing the boot.img then flagging the system in recovery?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Correct and I am not alone.

PS. I will do this also with this leak (3.48.405.1) but did it already only with the last 3.41.405.1.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Two things I will be looking to see if they fixed since leak 2.

1. Cameras working in apps like "camera 360" and "Paper Camera", Google Talk video.

2. Some widgets not updating "Google Voice".
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
There appears to be a problem with the Honeycomb system image that has been uploaded. I downloaded it three times and have problems each time.

Can anyone confirm or refute?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
What is the issue

I read on the discussion from the site that the md5 does not match. I have download it but have not flashed yet
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lpasq:
good news = new leak

bad news = not much work will get done at office this morning ;)

...planning a full revert to GB method upgrade...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
The first thing is it is too small as compared to earlier versions. The second thing is that it won't install. The third thing is that I can't unzip it (I tried). I think the upload was incomplete.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
The system image download looks suspiciously small 325mb vs. 450mb for leak 2. I think it is corrupted.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I can confirm all three. 321.80 mb, can not open zip, md5 does not match.

There is something wrong with the download
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Does anyone know if you are able to use the some unlock.code you get from HTC for future endeavours, or do you need to complete the process again?

No one has been able to install Leak 3 yet except maybe Paul. Leak two seems very good. I noted the two items i found that were issues in previous post. Nothing that keeps me from using it as my primary.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
Paul,

I know this is NOT the place to discuss how to flash the leak(s).

Could you please update "adb shell mount /sdcard && adb push stock-hc-flyer-system.zip /sdcard/" to "adb shell mount /sdcard && adb push stock-hc-flyer-system-3.48.405.1.zip /sdcard/" or does it not matter?

Cheers.

That phrase in the code is just to reference the path of the file on your computer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I can see your point, if you are up to that point and you do not realize the command on the instructions is missing the last part you could find you're self in a panic. But the previous post is correct you can freely change the name of the file to whatever you want

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kego:
Is this leak already rooted?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
absolute system root tool and toolbox pro are not going to run with the Honeycomb ROMs because one requires S-OFF / NAND unlock (which the HC leaks and custom ROMs are not) and the other is not compatible with Honeycomb so these are application issues (or not) and not related to HTC Flyer Honeycomb.

Paying to help me upgrade my Flyer to this new HC leak

Hello guys, I have read a bunch of this blog here and others, but I am a little afraid to do this upgrade and Brick my nice new FlLyer 32GB 3G (european version- bought at EXPANSYS.com) that I just got last week.

I know that Paul did a great job explanning every step, but I wish someone would have created a video also.

Anyway, I love my Flyer as it is, with the new 2.3.4 updates. However, I noticed that the font size on a lot of the screens are too small and some icons are too small also. In addition the Gtalk video only works with the front camera, and nor the rear camera, as on my Atrix 2.3.4.

Is that anyway for someone to help me with all the steps of the honeycomb upgrade, if I pay or contribute to this site or someone's email on PAypal, or something ? Please reply it here or to my email at melo2006@gmail.com

PS- I have done a few ROM upgrades, and root on my old phones like: my Captivate , ATRIX, LG Thrill, and Galaxy TAB, so I am somewhat techy, but I am just not confortable wit hthis FLyer instructions and some of the issues that I read with people bricking this Flyer...so... I would love to have someone helping me on the phone, or something.

thanks

Ron
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
I would recommend asking GlobalTron to assist you on the IRC channel. He is the most knowledgeable about fixing issues when people get stuck with installation or revert. I would also recommend you might want to wait as the HC leaks are still beta and there have been issues with the cameras not working with Gtalk and other non-HTC apps. It's getting close to final release it appears, but its still beta and the majority of the problems seem to occur when people try to go back to Gingerbread stock.

I don't think a video install instruction is viable for this. The process is too complex for that and its so much easier to copy and paste all the ADB and FastBoot commands from Pauls text.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kego:
So, S-off and official bootloader unlock, aren't these completely same processes and one can replace the other?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
I tried doing the "easy" kind of upgrade - just flashing the system image.

No dice because this approach breaks WiFi. I had no problem shutting down or restarting however.

I did not want to have to go through the gingerbread downgrade and complete reinstallation but it look like that is what I will have to do.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Have you tried fastboot flashing the boot.img?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Anyone running this yet?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
No. I think I am just going to bite the bullet and do the complete upgrade.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
Went form HC leak 2 to 3 by flashing just the system image and the boot.

fastboot flash boot stock-hc-flyer-boot-3.48.405.1.img

wiped dalvik cache, boot up and its seems fine.

wifi works , shut down works.

US BB Wifi Flyer

S-off is not the same as unlock

S-off allows more areas of the firmware to be flashed.

This is why you cannot just flash all the image pieces from the leaks when going from one HC leak to the other. It's not S-off so even though it's unlock and rooted , you cannot flash the radio. That's why you have to revert to GB and go through revolution S-oFF again.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kego:
Thanks, I was confusing these terms but much more clear now. So it means other than HC, only some GB users can ugrade to HC, since revolutionary only supports two different hboot versions.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
I also have a European HTC Flyer. Paul's instructions are simple and clear.

The last two or three times I flashed this it has not given me any trouble; and am now on latest leak. Great ROM, thanks to Paul.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] :
Just went through the complete upgrade process. All the way back to stock GB, and flashed all of the new files per the instructions. Looks good, and so far is running smooth. Wifi and shutdown work; haven't tested camera with third party apps yet. Paul, thanks for this update!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mur4d:
how about GSM telephony? is it fixed in this new update?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cnewsgrp:
Its probably Wifi driver. I had this issue with leak2.

"adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules"
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
You can solve this.just by flashing boot img in flashboot. Running fine here
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] MetaDude:
Can you confirm you just had to do the following:

1. Connect Flyer to the PC

2. Hold down Volume-Down and power-up the Flyer by pressing the power key. Go to bootloader FastBoot menu (Can also be done via 'adb reboot bootloader <ret>' on the command line.

3. Enter 'fastboot flash radio stock-hc-flyer-boot-3.48.405.1.img <ret>' on the command line.

4. Navigate to the 'bootloader' menu, select 'recovery' and then Erase Dalvik Cache

5. Reboot the device

And then everythings works OK on your US BestBuy Wifi flyer including WiFi and the Camera in 3rd party apps?

Thanks
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
That is correct for the BB Wifi.

Camera 360 still has a problem with post snap preview, but the shot is taken and stores correctly. This might be a app problem. I cannot confirm this app works with HC on any tablet.

Skype works

Paper camera works.

Widgets seem to work correctly

Wifi is fine

Shutdown is fine
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
This is what I did on best buy coming from second leak

with phone on, mounted storage and Pl laced BC system onto as

change directory

Adb reboot recovery

Clear cache in recovery

Adb reboot boot loader

In fast boot

fastboot flash boot hc boot image

Instead of going to GB and then installing HC_leak3, I would like to install HC_leak3 through the dirty way, i.e.,

1a. bootloader -> "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

1b. bootloader -> "fastboot flash boot stock-hc-flyer-boot-3.48.405.1.img"

2. install zip from sdcard (using stock-hc-flyer-system-3.48.405.1.zip previously copied into extSD)

3. mount /system Partition in Recovery

4. reboot

but I do not know if I have to use either step 1a) or 1b).

Can you enlighten me?.

Thanks a lot!.

HTC Flyer 3G / FlyHoney_ROM_0.2 -> Mwakious_Flying_ROM_1.1
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
You have to use the command

fastboot flash boot

What comes next is whatever the name is for the image file. If your file is unaltered from the original dl then 1b

Why are you mounting system partition
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Lucas0511:
As Paul mentions rightfully it might not be a full upgrade, but the fastboot of the new boot.img and flash of the new system.zip in Recovery are just a too tempting way of a quick and "dirty" upgrade to the new incremental version. No wipes (I wiped Dalvik for whatever reason) and you keep all you apps and settings, Wifi in 3G Flyer works just fine.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cnewsgrp:
You have an error in step 3. should be

fastboot flash boot stock-hc-flyer-boot-3.48.405.1.img

Here is the listing again

DigitalMD. Please confirm this is good.

Note: I just ran this and looks great to me. Leak3 looks great to me. IMO better than leak2.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] :
I certainly understand the temptation for some to do a "dirty" upgrade without starting from scratch. When folks report bugs, however, I do hope that they will clarify that they aren't running a clean install. Just sayin', though I'm glad that some are having success taking the shortcut.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I would hope anyone who took the shortcut such as myself would know enough that if things do not appear right the short cut could be the cause.

To be honest though our install is only missing the hboot and radio so I am not sure there will be any short comings
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] villalain:
1. enter into bootloader

2. fastboot flash boot stock-hc-flyer-boot-3.48.405.1.img

3. install zip from sdcard (using stock-hc-flyer-system-3.48.405.1.zip previously copied into extSD)

4. wipe dalvik cache

5. reboot

Everything seems to work.

HTC Flyer 3G / FlyHoney_ROM_0.2 -> Mwakious_Flying_ROM_1.1 -> waiting or the HC HTC offical one
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cnewsgrp:
Go for it.

Took the shortcut and can confirm that things look great for me. Leak3 is very close to production ready.

I have a BB Flyer. I revered to Brightstar RUU and installed leak2 and then took the shortcut for leak3 (installed boot and system images only)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
I went for it last night. No issues

Yes, using it at work today, and it's very stable.

Yes you can use the same unlock code have done it a few times :D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
I just completed installing this. I reverted to Gingerbread from the "dirty" install of leak 2. I then did a complete clean install of the current leak. So far so good. I'll advise if I have any thoughts about how it compare to the earlier leaks.

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

So far, it seems to be about the same as the second HC leak. There are no obvious changes is speed or the UI that I can find. I did not find any bugs witht the last leak and have not found any here either.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] cnewsgrp:
I find the display much brighter and nicer.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lpasq:
Thanks for the report. I have been slammed at work and lagging a bit with school and yet to test the method you described. Btw...what OS are using to RUU?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Maedhros:
Just curious guys... if we get an official HC rom will we be able to just flash though CWR?

Or are we going to have to go through the same process as getting onto the leak?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] scotty1223:
im new to the flyer community,but ill take a stab at answering the above :)

i assume you mean to download the OTA,chose to install later,and then use CWM to apply "update.zip".

if you do it that way,it will defiantely wipe out your root privleledges,if it has a new hboot,it will overwrite that as well,and it will destroy the main version tag,making it imposible to go backwards without re-writing the misc image as described in the revert thread. in theory,CWM will remain,and you should be able to reflash superuser to regain root.

if you apply an official RUU in its entirety, it will defiantely wipe out your recovery,main version tag,and root,and youll be stuck with htc dev unlock,wich should be able to be used to flash recovery,and rewrite the misc image if you had to go backwards.

if youre willing to deal with the affects of those 2 methods,you can do so... but for most folks, i think its prolly better to wait for a rooted system .zip,and install it in the same manner weve installed the leaks. that would be the safest way to ensure youre not "stuck" with unrooted HC.

please correct any of that this isnt right. :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
It's pretty much all wrong or contextually wrong because there won't be any choice but to update to an HTC official hboot.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] scotty1223:
in that case,waiting for correct answer :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
It will just fail. Revolutionary uses hboot protection. Even if it did manage to update hboot, the partitions are different as are the boot image bases. You'd just make a mess of the software and have to RUU, worst case you end up with a hboot/radio mismatch and have to send it back to HTC to be re-imaged.

You won't be stuck, for as of right now it's the *only* way you can have HC. HC system images are too big for the old partition layout.

Yeah a reasonable statement if you have a device with no unlock. Otherwise it's just as easy to apply su as a zip file, you need CWM either way.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lawguy:
This one:

RUU_Flyer_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.36.1540.32_R_Radio_20 .3501.30.089BU_3809.05.04.10_M_release_191425_signed

It went without a hitch.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Did you just OEM lock then run ruu?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] scotty1223:
thanks for the info. for what its worth, i had based my answer on updating to an official release HC from a HC leak,but in retrospect that dint make sense either,as you prolly wont get an OTA while on a leak :o ima just be quiet now :rolleyes:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lpasq:
Just wondering if you went the fastboot method or RUU on Windows.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
No, don't be quiet...just learn from mistakes. If you don't keep trying it's pointless because nobody learns. If I didn't think you or others could benefit from the information then I wouldn't bothered with the explanations.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] scotty1223:
i agree with you completely,thats just my humor. got honeycomb installed and am very much enjoying my flyer.

just trying to keep in mind that what i know about phones will not neccessarily apply anymore. for example,the hboot incompatibility between HC and GB. revolutionary hboot works for everything on the phones,so we change radios around regularly. not that ive any reason to change the radio in my wifi flyer,but it never occured to me that mis-matching the radio and hboot oculd cause such a catastrophe that an ruu wouldnt fix it :eek: definately good info to have :)

thanks again for the info
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Well it appears that the unlock is tied in some way to the radio version. I haven't really had much time to see why that is the case. But both Paul and I encountered the same issue when we were figuring out the HC installs where the unlock didn't work without the new radio.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Dacoco:
Just 2 questions about the new leak

1) Is it rooted? Is rooting possible?

2) Does Fastboot (i mean the fast booting of the device) work? How long does it take to Fastboot boot?

Thanks!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mcord11758:
Yes rooted

Fastboot takes like 4 seconds
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
The leak is rooted when you install it.

I don;t remember how long fast boot takes, I rarely use it, but the option is still there.
