[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
After you get the phone in FASTBOOT mode, open the cmd window and type:

FASTBOOT FLASH RECOVERY c:\recovery.img
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I find it very worrying that some one who can claim to have made this mistake many times is prepared to offer advice! ;)

nandroid backups, you now see the importance of taking them

Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
[HTC Desire S] Rapier:
The message you got is because you try to "run" in an windows command prompt an ".img" (image files). If you do so, windows try to launch the associated program with .img files. Obiviously this is the DVD burning software you have on your PC (the default windows one I think). That's why you get the error.

Now, you should pay attention very carefully to the instructions in that thread. You should NOT type "C:\recovery.img" but "fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery.img". That means you should already have installed "fastboot" application on your PC (or else you'll get a message say somthing like "'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." "fastboot" command is part of the Android SDK and should reside on your PC in the same place as "adb", that is in the "tools" (or "platform-tools" depending on what version of SDK you got) folder.

Simply, you first have to find where on your PC is installed the Android SDK. Browse with Explorer on your PC to there and look in the folders till you find the one in which "adb" and "fastboot" are. Keep the SHIFT key pressed and RIGHT click on that folder. From the menu that pops up, select "Open comand prompt here..."

Only now you can run the "fastboot" command...and if you have copied Recovery.img on the root of your C drive perform the command as instructed (an as I've wrote above). If Recovery.img is somwhere else on your pc than use it like this (after you perform steps 1-3 you've said):

fastboot flash recovery <folder_in_which_recovery.img_is stored>\recovery.img

Replace what I've wrote in italics above with the actual path to your recovery.img file.

After running this command, type the following one:

fastboot reboot-bootloader

You'll end up in 4EXT recovery from where you can flash the ROM of your will (hopefully one for Desire S this time)
[HTC Desire S] imkr:
It's working for me now, thanks for your clear instructions:

I've type up the exact process that I experienced here

1. Get 4EXT

2. Extract to C:

3. Find android-win-tools

4. SHIFT + Right click to open cmd from here

5. Type 'fastboot flash recovery C:\recovery.img', then appeared:

sending 'recovery'... OKAY (keep looking around 10mn), another command appeared

writing 'recovery'...OKAY

6. fastboot reboot-bootloader

DONE!

Hi guys,

I had been upgrade from 2.1 to cm7 last few day

Its quite awesome, like using other phone!

But i got a random problem that when i wake up my phone,

all the buttons is not working anymore, that im freezing on unlock screen (i do using widget locker)

no matter the power, volume or the 4 soft buttons

And a strange thing is that the system is still working!

Like when i plug in the usb, it will pop up said usb is conneted,

and the battery life will still decreasing..

So wts the problem with my defy?

Thanks a lot guys!
[Defy General] razorrhyme:
Write froyo sbf with rsd lite and after that install again cm7.
[Defy General] kevinw915:
After I upgraded to Froyo (3.4.2),

Could I downgrade back to cm7 (2.3.7)?

Coz the guide said:

"If you try to flash a lower ID version than the one already on your phone, you will just get a Black screen after booting or a screen telling you to flash an official rom."

I am just a bit worry after reading this....thanks btw!

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masteraustin916:
Hello,

I have a mytouch that i have been trying to fix for the past 5 days now and have been to every corner of the internet trying to find an answer.

Background:

I rooted my phone and was running CM7 with no issues till it wasn't keeping my accounts and wouldn't let me add my accounts back on my phone. I decided to go back to stock and read that you were to just run the PD15IMG file. With previous rooting experience i went to clockwork and made a backup and also wiped my cache just to make sure. The update went smooth till restart when the phone was stuck on the splash screen.

Issue:

If i try to re install the PD15IMG file the phone will start to update but gets stuck on "BOOTLOADER - Updating". If i enter recovery i get to the green sync arrows with a phone for a few seconds and then the phone goes black and vibrates around 7 times. When in HBOOT USB the computer will recognize but ADB will not. In Fastboot USB, fastboot will find the device but when i try to erase or flash anything i get "FAILED <Remote: not allowed>"

My bootloader reads:

GLACIER PVT SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-0.89.0005

MICROP-0429

RADIO-26.11.04.03_M

eMMC-boot

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tvotony:
Sounds like a bricked phone
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Phone vibrating 7 times, if it's the same as for Nexus One, means - overheating CPU, which in turn means - dead phone that needs warranty replacement, if still available.

Sorry for bad news.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tvotony:
Wait give it some time in a.cool place because that's what I had to do got mine if that's the case
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
It'll only be a temporary solution. Unless you really heated your MT4G before getting those signs (having it under the car glass in black jacket, for example), there is no way that the CPU will reach overheating temperatures on its own. And when it does - it means bad stuff.

I can suggest (not joking!!) to try and turn on the phone while it's inside a freezer. If it turns on and functions properly there, but starts acting funny when outside - it's 100% overheating confirmation, and nothing can be done.

PLEASE HELP ME!

99% of the time my nandroid backups work perfectly. But every once in awhile they either didn't back up properly or didn't restore properly.

I would try clearing out all user data/various cache and then restore again. Assuming you have already tried rebooting.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] </travis>:
Ok so I have been wondering how many people here are using a US Windows Live ID and is currently living outside US?

My Windows Live ID (NZ) has been perma-banned recently because I took photos of my girlfriend and I touching. I have forgotten that the auto-upload was on hence all that taken photos went straight to skydrive, but that mobile uploads folder was set to private or "only me" so no one could see it. Still MS banned my account, leaving my zune and xbox profiles untouched.

I was still able to receive emails, but not send, nor share photos to facebook and twitter, and even buy apps and games from marketplace, hence that Live account is totally useless so I deactivated it. I made a new one set in the US so I could get features that I couldnt before with the NZ account, but I accidentally made a new xbox profile so I couldnt transfer my current one to the new one. Now I'm making another new US Live ID even though I live in NZ. I have asked my cousin if I could use their home address so I could put in my credit card details.

The only drawbacks I could think of using a US-based Live ID are the currency, and Local Scout. Currency conversion doesnt bother me. I have paid $11NZD for the ChevronWP7 unlock and that was $9USD. Games in NZ are usually $4.99NZD, but converting them from $2.99USD will cost around same price so its not really a problem to me. Local Scout isnt supported in NZ hence it wont work.

So the whole point of this is, how many here are actually using a US Live ID but not living inside the US?

Stock is better than custom or custom is better than stock ? Why ?

What custom rom is recomanded for my phone ?
[HTC Sensation] bobsie41:
I have tried most of the custom roms posted here some of which are excellent but i always revert to stock rooted roms as all custom roms seem to have inherent bugs to a greater or lesser extent (as do stock roms i'm afraid but bugs are minimal).

I find stock roms much better than many people on this forum would have you believe but would always recommend rooting and having a custom recovery installed as this gives you options to sort out any problems that you may have and also you can install your own prefared customisations if you wish.

I would strongly recommend stock rooted 3.5 based on HTC Sensation 2.08.401.1 RUU which is provided by EddyOS.
[HTC Sensation] big_smurf:
I personally prefer custom roms. Although it is possible to find bugs, they are usually dealt with very quickly by the developers. I agree that you should definitely have recovery installed and if this is done then there is no reason why you can't try out a few roms. I don't think any one rom is best suited to a phone, it all depends on what you want out of your phone. If you don't like it you can always change it back, as long as you made a backup.

HTC Sensation LeeDroid V4.0.0
[HTC Sensation] lavafire:
It's up to you really, I personally can't resist the temptation of Custom ROMs. I kept changing between them, on average flash once a week :P

You get a lot of different experience with each ROM because they are made by different people, therefore with different intentions and features, some will fit you whiles others won't. The whole point is to find the difference and find one that you likes best. After a few ROMs you will know what fits you, and which DEV you want to follow :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjjjv:
My userdata.img probably became partially corrupt because I created it with cat while the phone was running, instead of in recovery mode :-(. Due to this, when I flash it, the phone doesn't boot and logs several messages related to not finding things on /data over and over, since it couldn't mount /data.

I can put back an older userdata.img just fine and boot the phone, so my methodology works. I'd guess the new userdata.img isn't entirely rubbish as a hex editor shows data.

Attempts to explore (loop-mount) or unpack (unyaffs) on my laptop or on the Android phone itself have failed without much explanations, for the new image as well as for the (known-good) old image. Notably, running the unyaffs2 coming with the latest yaffs2utils tells me it wants to unpack 147 objects but nothing ever shows up.

How can I recover?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mundodisco8:
Hello everyone,

A friend of mine has recently bought a Neo V and I wouldn't like to miss the opportunity to tinker a bit with it :D

The thing is that, as the phone is subsidized, it will come with the operator's personalization, that usually clogs the phone, and I would like to debrand it, and leave her with the latest, stock SE's rom. Furthermore, I've read that there are chances of ICS coming to this phone, if I'm not wrong, from SE, but I think it's quite unlikely that her operator takes the time to release an update. I'm not interested in sim unlocking.

So, if I understood correctly, the only way to get a generic, debranded firmware is to unlock the bootloader, and that will cause the voiding of the warranty, isn't it?

EDIT: I was not interested in rooting to get privileges, basic user is enough for my friend, but it seems that (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1133650, at least in the Arc) you can get generic roms by rooting, and that wouldn't void your warranty, is that right?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vimjam:
you will void warranty only if you unlock the boot-loader , nothing else will void it

rooting will not void warranty

what to do?

what is my option?

forgive me,i'm new to android

if i debrand can i update to

oficial rom later?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] JellyKing:
I just debranded my Neo with wotanserver. Easy as pie.

One thing I just have to mention is I have Android 2.3.3 and I am aware of 2.3.4 and future 4.0, but when I try software update it just keeps telling me I already have latest software.

I don't have any sim card in phone does that affect it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mrfarhatadib89:
maybe this due to the debranding?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] OrrPenn18:
It's here! and its FUNKY! :p ​

I'm not responsible if your phone explodes, bricks, or goes into hypertransition and transforms into Megatron!

I found a method to port the ICS Transition Animations to our i5800/i5801

It will work on any firmware, irrespective of Samsung/AOSP tags!

But Be Careful to download the framework-res.apk of your current ROM

But be sure of backing up your current framework-res.apk from /system/framework

Bandwidth here is damn costly, I can't download a 120 MB Rom just for editing framework-res.apk, I hope you people understand! :(

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] OrrPenn18:
WARNING : PLEASE THE ATTACHED LINK IS ONLY FOR JPU USERS, AS I JUST WANT FEEDBACK, SO I CAN PORT FOR OTHER FIRMWARES

Method

1. Download the attached file named framework-res.apk

2. Copy it into /system/framework by Root Explorer

3. Be sure you have already made a backup of your old framework-res.apk

4. Replace the old framework-res.apk file

5. Set the normal permissions to the framework-res.apk corresponding to other system files!

6. Reboot and VOILA! :D

PS -- After copy-pasting the app, every app will FC, dont worry, just reboot!

Inefficiency of the ICS Port :

If you use launcherpro and can't see the animations, it is a fault of launcherpro as it uses old transit animations :(

bootloop in cm7.1 .. gr... have to reflash again... it's better to test it before to post! now i will loose all my contacts!! which i haven't backed up yet!!!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] PersianSphinx:
you dont need reflash, just push the old framework res back into the /system/framework...

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework

if you get the error saying your partition is in r/o format do this:

adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/st19 /system
exit
exit

and then type the first commands. this should fix it. if you dont have the framework, here is a way to get all your contacts without it anyway:

adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/*.db

you will here have to go to where your adb folder is (usually c:\androidSDK\platform-tools or c:\androidSDK\tools of course it depends on where you put adb... dont panic if you dont have it, contact me and ill help as soon as i see it the same day or the next) and you should have 1 or more .db files named contacts.db or in my case contacts2.db. DONT MOVE IT. and now that you have this file, normally reflash or whatever. after flash is complete, do this in adb:

adb push contacts.db /data/data/com.android..providers.contacts/databases/

and now, your contacts are indeed restored my friend. have fun and dont ever forget backing up your contacts again :D
