The "waiting for device" problem happened to me very often, back in the day with my old HD2 and it's the same when I first attempted to unlocked my Amaze bootloader too. I think it may have something to do with the computer though

What I did is unplugged the USB and replugged it back in - you may have to clcik the back arrow and go back one step though. The trick is instead of plugging-in the USB as instructed, do not plug-in the USB, rather, wait until the computer say something like "verifying connection ..." (or PDA) for that matter, then plug it in. The server/program will regconized the device ... Try it, may or may not work for you but it works for me - every times
[HTC Amaze 4G] jaxenroth:
X, have you reached out to any other devs like team bamf or team synergy for the few bugs this rom has? Those guys are very helpful and might beable to to point you in the right direction. There over at TB fourms.

Facebook Crash?

Hey Guys... Anyone Having Issues with Facebook Crashing in Either Bliss or Regular Sense 3.5?

Thanks in Advance!

@X I Am Looking Into Seeing if I Could Get Some Ppl To Help You. I Know Paul O-Brian the Founder of MoDoCo Very Well and Many Other Devs Such as IncredibleDoes and Virus as I'm Actually a Verizon Customer and Use CDMA/LTE Above Others for Development. As Soon as I Have an Answer I Will Follow UP :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] ajbk4life1:
i have the same problem, thought i was the only one but i rarely use facebook so it doesnt matter to me
[HTC Amaze 4G] gaww:
Would be great if Paul would pick the Amaze up. They are earlier versions of the Amaze over there, so there may be more incentive for him to look at it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:
Do we have Amaze camera on here too, like Bliss rom?
[HTC Amaze 4G] bmbrad:
Yeah the facebook FC is a pretty easy fix. I went in with root explorer and deleted all the facebook system and data files. then downloaded the app and now it works fine.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
Simply update to the latest facebook version. Works great!
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
Ok ... I read the whole thread. This is my first rom I have installed . yeah people I havent flashed any android in many many moons.

The external connection to sd-card is toast I believe thats what you meant in the original post. The bluetooth turned on only on first initial boot . After that wont start up. Rom feels decent at first I wasnt happy but guess I just dont like android. Now is there a tool just going to ask that allows you to change where all programs and internet stores data as to the sd card ...

Almost forgot the sending MMS limit is 300. You have to be kidding me. How do you change that or is that not going to change ... Wait using " Go SMS Pro " I can send big messages again ... I thought we had MMS licked since windows 5. lol...

Market doesnt reconize already installed apps so if you use them you have to add them again from market .

And being honest I now see why so many are making bricks. Almost every thread I have read on rooting explains it as if the end user is a genius. Sorry guys but you developers need to dumb down the language you use.

I am no noob but I am a heavy tester as those who know me already know. Guess I will have to start writing more on this site to help the noobs .. I think I made a how to thread I have to check ...

I will play with your rom a little more before trying something else. Many thanks xboarder56 for your hard work ...

Maybe I have to start an android testing thread as I have been working on many android phones ...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
there was only 1bricked. If you do not like android go to ios symbian or wherever you want, who cares. and stop complaining about the devs, do something urself if u can. over 3000posts and not even 1thanks, I see how helpful have been to the forums. remember this rom is ALPHA stage still, and suppose you know what it means..since u r a heavy tester. btw rom toolbox is what I use to move apps to sdcard, might b useful to u in case u get to like android:)
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
And I have seen 1000's of bricks not just one. My statement was a general one...

Guess you haven't noticed I have been quiet on XDA .. The thanks meter wasn't in use when I was in full swing here buddy. Read a little closer before you make such a statement. And complaining far from it I am mentioning what my insights are to this rom. How else is a developer going to know the stability and usage of their rom if people like me don't test them and post our findings.

And I use all of types of phones and systems as I do fix these items. And still I dont like android is has its issues. I use linux and android is suppose to be linux on a phone but its far from tha in my opinion.

But thanks for the tip on using rom toolbox I will check that out. Keep speaking your mind because this is a place where by speaking things are discovered.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
Note : I will be trying the sense 3.0 rom as I have banged this rom to see what happens. The blue-tooth issue is a biggie with me as I use my phone a lot while driving and doing other activities. I noticed when people whom are in my phone book call it says unknown caller but if the person isn't in my phone book I see a name for them.

The GPS works but isn't correct. Locating is off a lot and when using it to see as you are traveling it has a tremendous lag. I am off to your other rom sir i will see how sweet that one is. And thanks again for giving me toys to play with.
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
You might not have been but this sure sounds like ur talkin some sh*#. This rom is still in its early stages, cant really complain when we have basically one dev working on 5 roms for us not to mention compiling ICS for us. O and did i mention hes in high school! Ne ways i recommend trying quicksense or one of x's other roms which runs great. O and just curious, if u dont like android, why do u do so much testing of it lol ne ways keep up the excellent work xboarder
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
I love playing with toys. So I will always test that's what I do. Sounds like you are upset with me do we know each other?

And more issues I have with the Rom is now nothing else will flash to this phone. All goes well but end result was endless loop...
[HTC Amaze 4G] scrminsqrl:
Are you a troll??? Thanks for reading the first page buddy... If you read a lil more you would've seen that you have to flash back to an 3.0 kernel...
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
I guess I'm a troll. The .3.0 kernel also didn't work . Lol ... Do you really think that wasn't done ??? Lol .. this phone is having issues and is already giving me the feeling of getting something new
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
Duuuude just get whatever makes you happy who cares seriously. Your posts have nothing to do with dev stuff. You don't like android cuz it sucks, you don't like the amaze cuz it sucks, you complain devs do not explain well the stuff about rooting...I am starting to believe Einstein was right...only 2 things are infinite in this world; the universe and the human stupidity;)
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
Are you slow in comprehending basic statements. I didn't complain about devs my statement was an explanation why so many bricks are around.

I know devs work hard I just wanted to bring to light the communication gap... But I see you also don't read well...
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
Lol either u got a bad phone or ur not doin something right i dont see anyone else having problems and ur the first person ive seen say they dislike the amaze in any way. I thought everything was explained pretty well but i actually read the directions and followed step by step :). Maybe u should get a diff phone, since this one seems to be a little difficult for u. Just sayin :b

In other news: lets get this forum back on track and discuss the rom shall we?
[HTC Amaze 4G] bmbrad:
Did u not read it says bluetooth & GPS doesn't work.

Well put.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
Ok .... Found the error as to why I couldn't install any other rom. turns out this free sd card is faulty like the ones from china that say 16g but really are only 1 or 2 gig. I used a new sd card and all works fine in the changing of roms.

So yes I do read diligently and can flash in my sleep . But after 40 - 50 fails I said let me wipe card and try from scratch. Any rom that's put on card first works. Anything added after is worthless. So I will be complaining about the free item. As we know nothing is free from the big companies.
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
What service do u have that gave u a free sdcard... Cuz Tmo sure didnt give us one
[HTC Amaze 4G] Totòòò:
He is just bluffing. I bet he doesn't even have the amaze.
[HTC Amaze 4G] BIGMOH:
haha...... i had the same issue, although i paid for mine not free :( got two 32GB Kingston SD Cards from China and both fake and slow too, what a waste of time and money! :mad:
[HTC Amaze 4G] Teo032:
your posts throughout this thread... is useless. Most of your problems and answers are found in the op. Your general statements are useless. Stop will the uselessness, mr. i flash a lot so i know a lot.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
Isn't this the app on my phone duhhhh
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
Ok .. Posting from computer .... picture included ...

P.S. Notice the screen is logged onto this page with XDA app. I love toys why lie about a device I dont possess.

Yeah ebay did that to me before ...

My post tell of my experience. Sorry they didn't impress you...

Its isnt about the service its about what you say and request. I always get a free sd card with a phone. I dont know what is the policy for everyone else but I believe one is suppose to be furnished. It was only a 2 gig nothing spectacular.

I mentioned this as well. Hopefully a fix will be out soon along with gps and bluetooth. This rom is smooth just a small amount of little bugs to be cleaned out. I'm waiting for the next release.
[HTC Amaze 4G] scrminsqrl:
This puts the phrase ignorance is bliss... They probably gave it to you to sutfu. I would've kicked you out
[HTC Amaze 4G] PURESKILLZZZ:
ROFLMAO !!!!!
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
Im surprised the mod hasnt stopped this yet. Its getting rediculous. The rom is in alpha stage as mentioned before, x is doing a great job. Period, drop it, everyone. Wait for next release, or use a diff rom. Its simple.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Teo032:
you guys do know an update isn't gonna be seen for awhile right?

X is working on compiling ics and only released this in hopes that someone picks it up and continues to work on it

so if anyone wants to continue to work on it, PM X
[HTC Amaze 4G] aj_2423:
Yup
[HTC Amaze 4G] phanompin23:

I got the free FIFA 12 apk from here:

But when I download the game it starts up then force closes. Does anyone have a working version of the fifa 12 free APK that they could upload? I can't download it from the get games app because my get games app no longer works after i flashed it to stock UK.

***Fixing***

Flashing back to Rogers 2.33 will obtain root via zerg rush method. Here's a tip to anyone on Rogers firmware, don't flash to UK firmware if you want your get games app to work. It won't open any of the developers websites properly because it is region specific.

I've seen this line used to mount /system in other CWM packages...

run_program("/sbin/mount", "-t", "rfs", "-ollw,check=no,nosuid,nodev", "/dev/block/stl10", "/system");

But, from the looks of it, it looks like it will only work with RFS-based file systems, not EXT4-based file systems for people who opted to enable Voodoo Lag Fix.

What would be a good way to mount /system using one universal command that'll work on both EXT4 and RFS?

hi yal , i think i just bricked my w8 ... i never bricked a phone before so i am not sure ...so it started lat night when i decided to try froyopro pro ...so i use gingerdx and clicked the reboot ...when i see the SE sign i tried to enter xrecovery (knowing my xrecovery has problems i just decided to try my luck) so nothing happened and as usual i hanged at the SE page...so i removed the battery and tried to go cmw , when i saw the SE page i clicked the screen quickly ...oddly thou nothing happen ..so i decided to try installing froyopro next time ...so i remove the battery and reboot the phone...but still i stuck at the same page...starting to panic i keep on removing the battery ...and the sd card and sim but nothing is helping ! imma stuck at the SE page! i think this is called a brick yes? i tried to wait for the battery to drain finish and recharge it hoping it will bbe okay ...but now the SE paage is gone and its only the backlight! help!!

i dunno what really happened ...i just wanted to go to xrecoverery/cwm to install froyopro ..now this happened =(
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
That's a soft-brick, no need to panic ... your phone still works.

See here about how to recover the device and be sure to follow steps to the letter.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
woooa! my phone is now ok! but should i still mod my phone? with like froyopro or dx etc? since my phone is back to stock ! will my xrecovery and cwm still work??
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
will my link2sd also work? my phone seems to be formatted =( and without a rom i ant enter cmw and imma scared to enter xrecovery
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
If you followed the instructions I linked above ... did you miss the steps on how to root the phone and about how to inject xRecovery through Flashtool?

Once root and xRecovery is done ... copy the FroyoPro ZIP onto your phone's SD card (USB storage mode will work just fine as it's already running Stock 2.1.1 again), reboot into xRecovery, Flash FroyoPro from your SD card, Full-Wipe, Reboot.

If you get a boot-loop during the boot you forgot to full-wipe.

Why would you want to use Link2SD when Froyo and Gingerbread can move apps to the SD themselves?

Oh, and "without a ROM" can't be ... without a ROM your phone would be a brick.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
i used the pc companion way ...and now my phone is back to square 1 without xrecovery / cwm / rom link2sd ...man should had followed your step just now...too rush >.< ...so does this mean i have to reroot rexrecovery and do everything from the starrt?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anon8989:
DEF YES! :D Good luck bro ;)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
No ... just get Flashtool ...

Turn on "Unknown Sources" and "USB-Debugging" in your phone's settings, launch Flashtool, connect the phone, and then follow the steps from "rooting" onwards to xRecovery.

Once that's done I already documented how to continue with flashing FroyoPro
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tohno:
flashtool is a downloaded software right? imma go dl it and look for a guide later ...so what your're saying is i don't have to reroot or reanything my phone just use flashtool? i think i will do it tonight since this is not my comp =P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] DroidBehavior:
so i have the i777 and i rooted using a guide on the android central forum

basically i downloaded kies, odin, cwm, and superoneclick

i put the cwm.tar file through odin, and than ran superoneclick, and i was rooted pretty easily

i than downloaded rom manager and through there i flashed CWM. I tried to make a back up using rom manager but that failed, no biggie i hear other people have the same problem. I boot up into CWM using rom manager and it says stuff like "failed to verify whole file signature"

im not sure if this means i rooted incorrectly?

i made a back up just fine using CWM. However i found out this stuff about flash increments and how i flashed a custom CWM kernal or something (sorry my definitions in this subject are still noob)

i decided i want to get rid of the yellow triangle + i9100 message every boot, no biggie but i am here to learn and i figure might as well if i can. I read a couple threads here and im not sure if this is my answer but i think it is please advise

my plan is to go back completely as if i never rooted and than root by using a stock rom/kernal so i dont get the error triangle message as well as the incorrect international i9100 display

i think this is my solution

"2b.) How to root by flashing Entropy512's Return/Unbrick to Stock, Kernel + Rooted System Package from the command line using Heimdall (Linux and Mac OS)

* Tested on Linux, should work on Mac OS

* Download and install the latest version of Heimdall Command Line for your operating system from here. (Latest version 1.3.1 at this writing.)

* Download Entropy512's Return/Unbrick to Stock, Kernel + Rooted System Package from here. Extract the PDA.tar file from this package to a directory on your hard disk drive, then extract the two component files from the tar - zImage and factoryfs.img.

* Place zImage and factoryfs.img both in the directory where you have the Heimdall command line executable, and enter the following at the command prompt:

Code:

heimdall flash --kernel zImage --factoryfs factoryfs.img

* Reboot the phone. Success. You're Rooted.

"

i am under the impression that if i flash the .tar file that is 200+mb (why so big) that i will be RE ROOTED and COMPLETELY stock, therefore no error message and no international thing popping up

also, no more flash counter increments ? << this one is also important as this is one major reason i want to re root

im not really sure but i think that by flashing this new .tar it will over ride my custom.tar file that i do not want any more, i dont know how to get rid of it so this is the only thing i can think of

im worried because i dont know if i have to UNROOT before i install entropys thing or if it will just over ride

thanks so much to any one who can give me advice
