[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
The OTA flashes a new hboot also.

If you S-OFFed with Revolutionary your hboot has to be version 6.98.000x. This hboot has a protection and cannot be overwritten. This is the point where the update process is interrupted. The result is a bootloop, because the new system is incomplete.

If you can boot to bootloader (hboot) you should be able to flash a custom recovery with the fastboot command (in the 4EXT Recovery thread there is an attachement - a zip file that contains recovery.img). Extract the archive and flash it with this command from cmd (there is a guide how to make fastboot working in my signature):

fastboot flash recovery {path to file on your PC}/recovery.img

If this works reboot to recovery, wipe all partitions and flash a custom ROM. Then your phone should be working again.

Then if you want the OTA flash a 0.98.2000 hboot, then use the 1.47.401.4 RUU (if you are using European unbranded) or the corresponding for your brand/region to return back to complete Stock and S-ON. Then you will be prompted to update and you will have the latest OTA on your device
[HTC Desire S] Akerhage:
Okay, I have now fixed the 4EXT Recovery and it is working!

Do I have to put a new ROM on the SD-card or is there another way to install a ROM (from cmd with the ROM on the computer etc?)

I dont have an adapter to the SD-card, but maybe I can put the ROM on the sdcard with a command in cmd aswell?

What ROM do you recommend to use? (sense, no sense doesnt matter)

Edit: I did a backup as well, thinking that I should do that...
[HTC Desire S] mooler:
Can you link to zip file you used for recovery i have exactly same issue and same software versions as you have.
[HTC Desire S] Akerhage:
@ Mooler. First of follow the guide that was posted here regarding the adb-drivers.

After that download this: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=631186&d=1308596026

Then install that one as described with the cmd-command.

After that just put a custom ROM or a shipped ROM on the SD-card, wipe data/cache and install the ROM you want. That solved the problem for me!

Good Luck and thanks for the help I got here! Xda always delivers ;)
[HTC Desire S] Akerhage:
Damn this phone! After hours of fixing with this problem!

I managed great, installed new kernels, radios, ROMs etc. And the first thing I did was to drop it on the floor so the whole damn display cracked! :mad:
[HTC Desire S] mooler:
Thanks for both of you.

I managed to restore the phone quickly after i got the correct recovery file. 30 mins and custom ROM was up and running. Good bye official update.

Akerhage: sad to here, it really was hours of reading and trying before you get it right.

I'm okay with dropping that much on a phone. If I had the cash I would do it now.

Trust me, you did the right thing ;) I ordered mine from Clove technologies and it came out to be about $730 all together. I should have it by the end of the week ;) extremely excited. You'll be happy

Does anyone know when Handtec is supposed to ship their items? I bought it around 1am Pacific on wednesday morning and they still have not shipped it yet. They said I was supposed to get a confirmation when it gets shipped but it shouldnt possibly be this long
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qnet:
The information your getting sounds normal. I ordered mine Tuesday and, the estimated shipping from FedEx said should receive it tomorrow. If you read the last few pages of Hantec shipment thread, you will see the same pattern.

If they have stock it seems to be taking only a day and a half from the time you order it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kam187:
1am Pacific on wednesday was about 5pm on Tuesday here. According to their blog post they should have shipped it yesterday. Having said that it must have been crazy busy there! I imagine it'll go out today if it hasn't already (fyi its 4am Thursday in the UK now)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monkey hung:
But there's no way for me to track it. They gave me a confirmation number and that's it. No info on if it's been shipped yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nory82688:
If you haven't gotten a tracking number yet, I'm sure it hasnt shipped yet. Maybe you should email handtec and ask them if/when it will ship. I ordered mine last Friday, and it just shipped yesterday because they didn't have stock in, so maybe that's what happened?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sfasu77:
I just ordered my nexus from handtec... hopefully they still have stock. 696.31 is a large price to pay to not have to deal with Verizon's crap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flippy125:
If you feel bad about paying $700 for a phone you probably should have waited. I didn't drop the money until I was 100% sure I wanted the phone

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rock7632:
Think of how much you'll save on your monthly bill if you go with a month to month plan
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x.Orville.x:
Mine's has been shipped today arriving tomorrow
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catpunt:
(assuming you are in the usa and were considering waiting for the phone on verizon)

1. you paid $5 more than the unlocked gsm version of the phone will likely retail for in san francisco california ($650 * 1.085 = $705)

2. you are free to go to t-mobile, at&t, or any number of other gsm mvnos.

3. on t-mobile you can get a cheaper month-to-month plan than contract plan.

4. the verizon version is thicker and contains bloatware, not to mention is locked down to verizon. the monthly bill will be at least $80/mo for a new line and with a 4GB cap currently. you will probably pay $300 + tax at verizon, and locked into a $350 early termination fee. therefore you will pay the same amount as you just paid if for some reason you wanted to leave verizon.

5. more people on the planet will have the same version of the phone as you do. therefore you will reap the benefits of international android hackers more quickly.

6. gsm/hspa+ uses less battery than cdma/lte

7. you get it first :)

i could go on, but i hope that's enough to make you feel better
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mohitrocks:
With the (probably) huge developer base, ice cream sandwich, easy root, no bloatware (I hate forced themes by manufacturers -.-), fastest updates by google + the modding community, how could it be a bad purchase? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JDaSilva:
$800 here

I just received mine from Handtec today. One thing you have to keep in mind is that FEDEX charges you the taxes and custom fees once it gets into your country. Mine was $700 but when it got to the local depot they called and said the extra charges come to just under $100. I live in Canada though and we have a fairly high sales tax as well as a provincial tax (%12 in total).

Nice thing was I ordered Tuesday morning and it got here 48 hours later.

Awesome phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rashad1:
Wow, I'm proud to be an American.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JDaSilva:
Still pay taxes there bro, just not as much.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dalamchops:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JDaSilva:
Lame, still customs fees I'm assuming. I don't think they were very steep for me.

Did the right thing . I ordered from clove Technologies . Its been 5 days since I got this beauty and I am loving every moment .
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nory82688:
I also ordered from Clove, fed ex says it'll be here tomorrow at 1030am. When you tracked your order, did you get it on the day fed ex said?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] catpunt:
just got mine, it's simply amazing, you won't be disappointed. better than anything i expected (and i expected quite a bit). i'm resisting the urge to start a new thread saying how much i love this phone
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yyz71:
Picking mine up next week at bell in Toronto $649. 00 off contract :) with virgin right 6GB of data $65. 00 a month unlimited text 200.00 min so what i'm say is i wont be disappointed with my purchase!! And haven't even touch the phone yet... Can't be bothered to wait for every other phone to get ics update :( call me inpatient. I love my play and i'll miss my sd card slot :( but hey at least i'll have the baddest phone. On the block and 4.0 :) the 8th can't come any sooner. Just enjoy your phone i know i will :) CHEERS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iDavey:
I ordered from Handtec also. After all charges it came to $697. Received my phone the very next day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzun223:
If I order the phone from handtec and have it shipped to the U.S. will it have a 1 year warranty?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nory82688:
Whatever you guys do, if youre having it shipped from the UK, don't use fedex to ship it. Mine was supposed to be here on Friday and it wasn't delivered. When i track it, it still shows it in Newark, NJ at a fedex facility , I spoke to a fedex representative and she said "maybe its still waiting to go through customs." Why don't these people know what they're doing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
I purchased mine for $725 from amazon.

I justified it by using it on Tmo's $30 plan, which suits my needs fine.

I charge my phone every night and have been woken up at stupid o'clock by the battery full notification.

Googling the problem offers the solution of renaming the sound file on rooted devices, but the screen still turns on.

I know there are apps that will silence your phone until a set time, but I still want to hear if I get a call (in case it's urgent).

Any suggestions?

[Kindle Fire Android Development] SikYou:
So will this still work with 6.2? I'm confused. Anyway, this is awesome! Just what we needed
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Xeddicus:
Yeah, a boring video of the "factory cable" method since the nvram boot mode is broke would be useful :P But awesome that it works.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] SikYou:
I can't remember what the device was doing before the update but now if I try adb commands for recovery, bootloader, and fastboot, it looks like there is some response. I don't actually get in to recovery but it looks like maybe the device is rebooting in to fastboot. I don't have a ton of experience with this but just figured it was worth mentioning.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
I just need to debug it. For some reason even the u-boot that comes with the 6.2 source drop doesn't respect the new NVRAM layout. This is just a proof of concept since TWRP is still AWOL, so don't worry. I plan to make the button handling a little more robust, including a way to select recovery or fastboot with just the button so you can ditch the Fire ROM altogether.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
I noticed that too. I tried building the u-boot from the 6.2 source drop and it doesn't detect when I set the bootmode either, but the one in the update .bin does.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] SikYou:
Sounds great, looking forward to seeing the finished product.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
[YOUTUBE]JxRLlFL4tYk[/YOUTUBE]

There you go.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] SikYou:
BTW, have you been in touch with agrabren from TWRP? He is the one kinda spearheading the KF TWRP project and I think one of the issues was not having a reliable method for booting to recovery; if that is the case you have obviously done a lot of work towards solving that problem.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] death2all110:
This is awesome!

Not trying to nitpick, but is there a way to add on-screen options or no?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
Maybe at some point. I'm just trying to get something that works for now. With one button there isn't much benefit imho other than a message that says "press button now for recovery"
[Kindle Fire Android Development] death2all110:
Well fine then! I see how it is. Just shoot everyone down... jk

Great work man!

But that is what I was thinking, It can either normal boot and get shown a brief message like "Press Power Button again to boot in.to recovery." And if you hit the button again it boots recovery.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
Thanks

Right now it goes into recovery if you just hold the power button down when turning it on instead of just hitting it quick. I could add a delay and just throw some text at the bottom of the boot logo. Hmm... now that I think about it, how about this:

-Boots up, shows a splash screen with the logo and some text like "hold down power for recovery"

-Listens for fastboot for up to 5 seconds, enough to run fastboot on the commandline real quick

-If it doesn't get a fastboot connection in 5 seconds, it checks the state of the power button

-If the power button is pressed, boot recovery, or else boot normal

Also if anyone has any better logos than what I've got now... Requirements are that most of the screen area must be a single color like the current logo, or the logo won't compress well enough, and must be 600x1024.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MrJandD:
I'd be willing to create a cool boot-logo, how would just a flame in the background and some text saying "FireFireFire Bootloader" on top of it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Thelgow:
I dunno if it's just me but once I read the title FIREFIREFIRE I pictured Beavis and Butthead. One day..
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
I was actually thinking of something getting away from the name of the bootloader since in the scheme of the user experience it's pretty insignificant. Andy with some flames in the background maybe, or a Nook Tablet on fire (yes, i'm that bitter and petty)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
That's exactly what was going on at 1am... I needed to make a splash screen (Amazon doesn't include the stock one in the source, trademark and all that) and I typed the first thing that popped into my head into the editor.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MrJandD:
Hard to make a nook tab one color :)

How about the text FireBoot?

Im open to idea's.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] MrJandD:
First Edition.

How about this?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] pokey9000:
It doesn't have to be one color. The image has to be mostly background and the background must be a solid color. It all has to do with RLE compression, like GIF or faxes where black text on a white page compresses down really small. There's only about 8-10k to spare for the boot splash, so we can't just put up a full screen photo of something or smooth gradients.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZanshinG1:
The problem is likely routing or DHCP.

Wifi Fixer for Android(at least the original by that zanshing1 guy) will only check to make sure packets are going from the phone to the wifi access point, not to the internet.

Do you have this problem on other devices?

Suggest setting to WPA2/AES if available, n or g or a only, no mixed mode, set a password.

Reboot wifi access point, just to be sure.

A more detailed description of the problem would be helpful.

If you are not technical, turn on Wifi Fixer's built-in logging and send a 10 minute sample while connected to the problem network. It should provide the developer with diagnostic info to help you figure out what's going wrong.

Make sure to detail in the log email what the problem is. (Blank issue descriptions tend to get ignored.)
