[HTC Amaze 4G] ms2knights:
I have finally got my phone unlocked and rooted. Now I am trying to install the quicksense ROM. I know I am doing something wrong, because all I get is the white HTC screen at start up, and thats as far as it goes. So, here is what I did, and maybe someone can help me out.

I downloaded amazing quicksense and dragged it into my sd card

I booted into recovery

I did a backup

I wiped the cashe

I went to install from sd card and chose the zipped quicksense file

I then got install from sd card complete

I then went back and rebooted phone

From here the phone freezes on the white HTC screen and does not fully boot.

I had to go back into recovery and do a restore to get my phone working again.

What am I doing wrong. Please help.:mad:
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Seem like you did succeed at everything except the cleaning parts

Please try again by going into recovery and

1. wipe data/factory reset

2. Wipe cache partition

3. Go to Advance then wipe dalvik cache - after that, choose go back

4. Install rom from sdcard

5. Reboot
[HTC Amaze 4G] ms2knights:
I will try and do what you have instructed. However I wanted to ask one question before I do this. In your first step to "wipe data/factory reset", will this reset my phone back to factory, essentially wiping all my data and everything I have on it? I know unlocking the bootloader did that, but it would suck if I had to do this every time I installed a ROM. Just want to make sure what I am up against. Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Hi

I am by no mean a dev so my advices is more like ... well, advice - not instructions my friends :)

Wipe data/factory reset mean wiping every personal datas that you had on the device and yes, this will reset your phone back to the present rom that you had on the device - in your case is the stock/factory/carriers rom.

Every time you install a new rom you should - and every dev will suggested this - wipe clean your data and whatever info that may still left on the device from previous rom - you may not need to do this when you update to the new version from the same rom. Sometimes the new version of the same rom featured too many changes then the dev will instructed user to wipe all the data. That's why we user should always read the first, second and third post to make sure we keep ourself up-to-date when flashing rom.

Personal data means your google account, emails, contact list, SMS, wifi password, bluetooth pairing and apps setting ... However, we can backup and restore most of these info using diferrent apps. Here are some app that I found helpful in term of backup:

* Gmail account for contacts list

* SMS backup for SMS and call log

* Titanium Backup for apps and it's data: This app is very useful, for example if you use it to backup your email app it will included your setup and password ect ... so after install new rom and restore a particular app, you have an option to restore the app plus it's data or data/app only

Read this thread for some useful tips on how to using Titanium Backup

Googd luck and welcome to the Amaze :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] ms2knights:
I really do appreciate your advice. I will go ahead and backup everything, and then attempt the ROM install again. Hopefully it will work this time. Again thanks.
[HTC Amaze 4G] antiquezip:
Not a problem mate

Since you already backup your rom and QuikSense is a Sense rom anyway, it doesn't hurt to try restoring data from the backup. You can do this (after finish flashing the new rom) by go back into Recovery/Backup and restore/Advance restore/choose the backup file (in case you have more than 1 backup)/then chose restore data

I did this when switching from QuikSense rom to Senseless Rom and it work flawlessly

Worst case scenario is you will have to restore again. This will save a lot of steps.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Binary100100:
How long do you wait?

The first boot may take several minutes.

Do you have adb installed on your computer? If so then from the command prompt (or terminal if your running Ubuntu) type "adb shell logcat" and if it seems like it's repeating itself over and over again then your caught in a loop and would probably just need to clear the data and caches. Your problem should clear right up.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ms2knights:
To be honest with you, I did wait for maybe 5 min or less. I guess I thought it would boot normally. I will try again and give it some time.

Being very new to this, I am trying to learn all of this. How do I know if I have adb installed on my computer? Thanks

Well, I finally got it to work. My probem was that my sd card was not FAT32 but FAT. I think this was the problem I had with trying to flash clockworkmod. I did everything except the wipedata/factory rest, to see if it would work. And sure enough, I am now running Amazing Quicksense 1.5.1. Thanks for every ones help.:):)

Guys i use SwiftDroid ASIS but my battery is drained in like 12 hours if i let 3G turned on. Otherwise its still dead in 18 hours anyway. What is the best battery saving ROM in all ?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] marko_.:
Airplane mode ROM.

just a joke... lol

i think that froyo is best on battery life.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MrAndroid12:
There is basically no advice to extend battery life on the optimus without the additional expense of an extended battery.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] liamwli:
How much and where?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] meddistar:
The best battery to power ratio has the 2.2.2 foryo with fully working .32 kernel from pcfighter :P

http://pebe.boo.pl/blog/2011/11/26/aosp-2-2-2-v2-2/
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] despotovski01:
The stock 2.1 ROM has the best battery life.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
yeah mike made a 2.1 rom with bfs and all kinds of other stuff but it does not have root or jit
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fdespotovski:
The best rom that has a great battery life is 2.1.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] foner81:
As our phone is getting older and older (I have it since 9/2010), also battery is getting weaker. So, I want to stick to a 2.1 ROM and want your advices. Besides battery performance, important for me are: stable wifi and fast gps lock. thx for reading : )

I forgot to mention: I want your advice on which 2.1 ROM I should use?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] martin255:
Yes, stock 2.1 Eclair is the absolute winner in terms of battery life. I remember I had 4 days with normal usage, good old times :)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
yep using it now (well no really stock v20e light version by miro) watch 2 hrs of video nonstop still above 97 :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] foner81:
So is the ROM you are using, the best 2.1 ROM in your opinion? I was using greendroid for 3-4 days, great battery life, but I saw wifi disconnecting after some time and keep saying: obtaining address...

Did you use a 2.2 ROM coming close to the 2.1 in battery performance? (Only flash support is pushing me not to go back to 2.1)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] darko94:
Well in my experience any 2.3 ROM can last 2 days if overclock is under 700MHz, brightness about 50%, use 2G only when not going on internet etc. With 2.2 ROMs you can get even more battery life, and with 2.1 the most. It depend how much you need.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
Project utopia is the most stable fastest 2.2 I have ever used very similar to 2.1:)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] martin255:
Now I can also highly recommend SDSL prefinal, now I'm on 50% battey after 3 days of use! (it just passed the 3day mark). All this with low-mid usage, so I think this is also awesome from a 2.3 rom!

And I use 122-806MHz with smartassv2 governor, so if you don't OC at all, you can reach even higher battery lifetime! I'm curious whether can I reach the magic 4 days of constant use on GB. :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] -Grift-:
good luck to you :D maybe screen off set to 480-122 smartassv2
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vesheff:
Hi,

I have HTC Desire GSM, rooted, s-off. Because of some issues with the proximity sensor i want to unroot the phone and send it back to HTC for maintenance. Before continue i must say that i have tried to clean the sensor, tried to remove the screen protector but the problem remains :(

However, i downloaded the hboot downgrade from alpharev site and updated the phone. Now the hboot version is still 6.93.9999 - will it be replaced when i flash the RUU?

Before flash the RUU i want to be sure that i can root the phone again once i get it back from HTC. I used the unrevoked to root my phone but as i see it's for hboot 0.93 and lower. What version of RUU should i use? I prefer to be froyo. :)

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Yes, the bootloader will become S-ON once you use the RUU.

The best option is to use the corresponding RUU to your network provider e.g. my device is branded Vodafone, therefore if I were to send back for warranty purposes I would use the latest Vodafone RUU.

All RUU's are available on www.shipped-roms.com

If you are unable to find the correct RUU for your phone, or are unsure of which one is right for you, simply use the 2.3.3 Gingebread RUU available from htcdev.com (there is also a link available on my guide from #Resources)

Lastly, you can root and S-OFF your phone as many times as you please (Being it is not rooted or S-OFF already)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vesheff:
Thanks for the reply. I have found tha RUU i need :)

I have read that GB RUU cannot be rooted and i should downgrade to 2.1. So i will use Froyo instead. Thanks a lot :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
When you get the phone back you're probably more than likely to get it back with 2.2 anyway, also you have read wrong, in addition to the fact that unrevoked is now pretty much obsolete and it is much easier to S-OFF and flash recovery rather than root the stock system.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vesheff:
There are so many threads and it's easy to get confused :)

I suppose you are talking about 4ext recovery?

What's the way to s-off the phone? Is it still whit alpharev?

I will search a little bit more thank you very much :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Wow you really need to do a lot of reading.. you can flash any recovery you want, whatever suits your needs...

Use revolutionary instead, it's a lot quicker and easier.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedreg:
What is your problem actually? I have AIO 2.5 for a week now and despite more battery usage due to bells&whistles in sense3.5, I cannot say it is really worse than on other ROMs. I agree, that overnight in idle mode it takes now nearly 5% instead of 2% before but who cares. In daily usage I do not see battery drain. I tested also AIO 2.2 with GC kernel (and then SNQ) and with SQN battery consumption was slightly quicker (it performs better anyway) but still the phone can hold one day, same as before :D

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
Soooo. Im planning on getting this phone. Soon. Realllll soooooonnnnn.

And there are a few things i want to know.

Does this phone have a radio/spl like the htc g1? (just an example) where we have to flash a new radio/spl to flash a certain rom? or can we just flash any rom straight from cwm?

and im not sure whether im going to be getting a rooted or unrooted phone, so to be on the safe side, say i'm not rooted. Is there a way i can root it without a computer?

Once rooted, i know i can flash the "wannabe cwm" from rom manager to flash roms.

Im also from the sgs4g forums where we can go into download mode/recovery mode by the volume button + power button combinations. Is this pretty much the same?

All answers appreciated. (even though im sure not all of them will be quite related to this post and rather flaming me telling me to go search before posting, but maybe thats just the other forums)

Thanks for everything guys. Hope to be a great member and a flashaholic with the g2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
This phone will be much better than the SGS4G.

First off, do not flash CWM from ROM Manager. The G2x needs a slightly custom CWM.

Best way is to flash CWM via NVFlash. It's kind of sorta like going into download mode. There's couple threads on it in the Development section, so it's easy to find. And you need a computer for that. Once that's done that's pretty much it... Just wipe data, dalvik cache, and head into mounts and format /system. Once you did those 3 things then flash whatever ROM you want.

You don't have to worry about SPL, radio, modem, etc. Good luck.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
Can you lead me to the easiest way to nvflash? Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
Can i download nvflash and do that to my phone even without root? Cause i found out its going to be a BRAND NEW g2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
You don't need root to flash a new ROM for the G2x. You just need CWM via NVFlash.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
Aight cooooooool. So i can just flash a rom from nvflash right? Aight. All questions answered. Thanks all. Hope this helps other newbies to g2x forums.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
No, you flash CWM from NVFlash. You flash ROM's through CWM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
Alright so.. ima be flashing cwm via nvflash tomorrow. If it bricks my phone, can i get the solutions to fix it? Im asking now just in case something happens tomorrow. Thanks guys.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fabricatedhero:
i sincerly doubt you will brick your phone. Using NvFlash is pretty much easy enough for a monkey so you should be okay.

After that find a already rooted rom you want to load up through CWM. If your staying stock without loading up a new rom you need to get superoneclick to root it.

Tips: Don't unistall system apps unless your sure you don't need them. Once you unistall a system app and you hard reset it won't be there.

Recommended is stock foryo (rooted) rom or Ultimate Froyo Rom

invest a few bucks into gold standard apps (rootexplorer, setcpu, etc)

Hit me up if you have any general questions
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Light-라이트:
Im not a noob. All i needed was to get cwm on my phone.

And i only asked about radios because phones with radios (like the g1 for example) had to flash a different radio to flash a rom. :p. that question was answered.

And i asked about the nvflash because i bricked my other phone a couple of times via odin. :p. And that question was also answered.

Currently running weapon g2x. deleted all bloatware/useless items. Just want to ask if i can download the samsung keyboard from my galaxy s 4g. (pushing the keyboard apk to the g2x.) and how would i add korean to it? As im pretty sure we'd have the language somewhere else.

Other than that, thanks all. :).

Hello XDA members!

This is officially my first thread and folks I am in need of some help! Let me start off by letting everyone know, I have honestly done my best with searching for an answer on the forum and Google. Another thing is, I truly apologize for any inconvenience, if I make this thread in the wrong section of the forum or if this has been asked and solved already.

My whole goal is to take back my EVO 4G to my local Sprint store to either fix my 4G Antenna or get a refurbished Evo. If I luck up, I might get a substitution with a Evo 3D. That it is if there out of stock. I do have Asurion insurance and it has not exceeded the 90 day warranty the Evo 4G comes with from HTC.

Now on to the problem with the Evo 4G. I'm struggling to UNROOT and S-ON my Evo 4G from Revolutionary root. In my case, I'm no expert around this whole ordeal. I'm very familiar with rooting and friendly with guides. I've followed every guide that I came across, but still cannot S-ON my Evo 4G!

For those that would like to know when I boot into HBOOT I get the following:

SUPERSONIC EVT3 SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-2.16.0001

MICROP=041f

TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab

RADIO-2.15.00.0808

MAR 8 2011, 17:02:15

*NOTE THAT "REVOLUTIONARY" NO LONGER SHOWS ON MY HBOOT SCREEN, ONCE I FLASHED AN S-ON IMAGE.

*NOTE THE DATE AND TIME ON MY HBOOT IS CLEARLY OUT OF DATE. IT SEEMS TO BE STUCK ON THAT TIME. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY, NOR DO I KNOW IF THIS COULD BE A FACTOR.

Folks I have tried just about everything that I can think of. I've downgraded my radio to see if it changed anything. (Nothing). I tried flashing different stock images to see if it changed anything. (Nothing). I tried running RUU's to see if that changed anything. (Nothing). I really don't know what's left for this bad boy. Is there any different way of changing the security flag on? adb, fastboot, terminal?

Any answers and help is greatly appreciated! Thanks and hope to get some feedback soon!

You need to downgrade your radio again to the 2.15.00.11.19 or earlier radio then flash the unrevoked forever s-on tool to get S-on.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
The unrEVOked S-ON zip will only work on the unsigned 6.17 HBOOT, however. So, the steps you'll need to take are:

1) Flash custom recovery via PC36IMG (Amon_Ra v2.3 recommended)

2) Downgrade radio to 2.15.00.11.19 or older

3) Flash modded 6.17 HBOOT

4) Flash unrEVOked S-ON zip through recovery.

You should be S-ON at that point, and then finally you flash a stock ROM (4.54 recommended) to restore your device completely to stock.
