[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bob_711:
Hi guys having a rather confusing issue, routed and installed cyanogen on my hd2 about a month ago and since then been working fine and then last night was just on the internet using 3g and it kept saying check internet connection dispite it saying 3g was working and since then have tried connecting to wireless at home and seems to just go through a loop of trying to retrieve ip adress and failing and trying again so any ideas how i could fix this thanks
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
Sounds like it dropped the connection. Try turning your phone off and back on. If that doesn't work. you may want to update to the newest cyanogen mod, because their could've been some type bug.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] matoflash:
Sounds like you might wanna try reflashing the ROM, I heard it sometimes helps. Don't forget to do nandroid backup! :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bob_711:
sorted now updated rom to the hyperdroid cm7 seems to run faster than the cyanogen mod i had which is a bonus thanks :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kylew1212:
Glad you got everything fixed! Happy flashing! :-D

Received a OTA update yesterday on my Rooted, Samsung Fascinate. After the update phone hangs on boot screen. Powering the device while holding the volume buttons gives me the Android System Recovery <3e> Screen. On this screen I have a bunch of E: Failed to open Recovery, cache, data kernal etc. (I can give all specifics if needed)

If I press the home button I get what looks like a screen to update the phone (Android Character with Triangle) From here I tried the instructions from the "How to recover from any brick" thread. Neither method is working. Any ideas?

From the boot screen I am also not able to scroll up or down to select a wipe apply update from SD Card etc.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I don't know how to fix it (don't get discouraged I don't know a lot in this area) but it seems to me if you play your cards right you might be able to complain to verizon and get an early upgrade out of it. A galaxy nexus would look mighty fine in your pocket.
[Fascinate General] fstbusa:
probably a conflict with being rooted when it updated. Odin back to stock and update completely and then re-root.

1. Download this file to your PC get you to a rooted ROM with the proper recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/?d0wha8lc1hjxxdf/geewiz-2.3-fullwipe-11302011.tar.md5 (this is the EH03 GeeWiz Odin Package ROM by djp952)

2. Boot phone in download mode by powering phone off, hold down vol button on phone, connect cable to PC (there is no need to remove battery)

3. Open Odin and Place the GeeWiz file you just downloaded into the PDA slot, click Start

4. Your phone should now be on the EH03 GeeWiz ROM

5. If you want to flash a different ROM, download the zip file for the ROM of your choice onto your phone (use the phone to download it), reboot into Recovery (what you booted into before is the stock Samsung recovery, not the Clockwork Recovery you need), choose "install zip from sd card", select "choose zip from sd card", choose the Download folder (the folder in which your zip file should appear), choose that zip file, and install.

6. Profit.

[Fascinate General] ascottn:
I gave this a shot, and I am thinking either my phone is not in "Download Mode" if that's possible or its a driver issue. Here is the response I get from Odin V1.83

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> geewiz-2.3-fullwipe-11302011.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

I have multiple Samsung Cables (I tried all of them) but it is possible I am not using the one that came with this phone (Could this be an issue?)

I am using windows 7 64 X64 The phone shows up in the in the device manager as LibUsb>Samsung Andriod

On the recovery screen I have noticed if I push the home button it flips between the Android and the Triangle to a screen that shows all the files the boot loader cannot find. Does it matter what screen I am on when I try the upload?

Thanks in advance for any advice for a n00b!
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
You need to download the Samsung USB drivers for your PC, as it appears to be not recognizing your phone properly. You should be able to find what you need on Samsung's website. Hope this works.

Has anyone seen John Connor?
[Fascinate General] ascottn:
Ok So I have removed / Re-Installed the drivers on 2 different machines (One Win 7 64 Bit other is Win Vista 64 bit. I get the same results on both machines. Any other ideas?
[Fascinate General] mentose457:
Have you tried Heimdall? For some screwed up reason odin will not recognize my phone but Heimdall will.
[Fascinate General] ascottn:
I gave this a second try. The "Driver" portion of the software detected the Samsung_Device and I was able to install the driver. However when I try the front end I get an error "Failed to Detect Compatible Device"

Im getting really close to jumping ship on this one and going out and getting a new phone.

I appreciate all the help!
[Fascinate General] ascottn:
Found a few threads on Verizon forums. Sounds like there have been a few people run into the same issues. Anyone tried returning a rooted phone to Verizon? If so and they caught it what were the repercussions?
[Fascinate General] mentose457:
Just to be clear, you are putting the phone in download mode then installing the drivers via zadig right? That should work.

loading drivers in windowz is the most retarded thing in the world. You dont happen to have access to a computer running linux do you? Heimdall works flawlessly in linux.
[Fascinate General] ascottn:
Good Questions

1- Yes I am installing the windows drivers as you describe

2- As for download mode how do I go about doing that? All I can seem to do is to boot to the <3e> bootloader. I cannot scroll up or down through the options. However I can press the home button and it goes to a picture of an Androind with a triangle around it (Green Droid, White Triange, Orange !)

3 -I didn't realize that heimdall worked in linux. I just downloaded it and gave it a spin in Ubuntu. I am getting the same error "Cannot Detect Download mode Device"
[Fascinate General] mentose457:
To enter download mode power off your phone, pull the battery, hold the volume down button while plugging in your phone. The screen should show a yellow triangle with the Android guy in the middle.
[Fascinate General] ascottn:
I have been digging around and I stumbled onto the correct procedure for getting to download mode. I don't know how I missed this *FACEPALM*

I want to say thanks to everyone. I am back up and running. Thanks to all for the help!
[Fascinate General] skynet11:
Excellent! I was starting to think you had a hardware problem as in a faulty micro USB port on the phone...

[Fascinate General] larry0071:
Would just like to add that the 2.3 OTA soft bricked my fathers stock phone. I am now hunting the non rooted file in another thread to odin or heimdal back to 2.2 to alow me to try again.

Verizon LVL 2 says he checked and I am the first customer to report a bricked phone from the OTA to 2.3. Yea... right.
[Fascinate General] ascottn:
Here is the guide I followed to get my phone back to stock (It includes download links for stock roms.

This is the one part missing from this tutorial. Probably because it assumes that these steps are known if someone has bricked a phone

make sure u have your samsung usb cable plugged into the pc but not into the phone (not yet at least) and make sure u remove your battery.

step 1. hold down the volume down button and continue holding

step 2. whille still holding down the volume down button, plug your phone into the usb cable

step 3. while still holding down the volume down button, pop your battery in.

[HTC Sensation] itsReggie:
If revolutionary isn't working make sure you have the correct drivers installed - you can download them from revolutionary's website.

If it still doesn't work, i.e. the program can find your phone but leave you waiting for hours without doing anything factor reset your phone then try again. It worked for me.
[HTC Sensation] mx3racer:

but i use the 1.18.0000 hboot and thats not is the list for selection witch 1 must 1 select?

[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
No. Having the euro 3-pin charger has nothing to do with it.

No. Almost every tool is made for Windows. Deal with it even if "it sucks even more"

Windows computers are PC's but not all PC's run Windows. That overpriced (Personal opinion) Mac of yours is a PC as well.

If you really addicted to rooting, you would have searched and being a noob isn't an excuse. You didn't even bother to create your own thread.

Now putting my personal gripes aside, try to read and follow this link step-by-step.

[HTC Sensation] steve_xyz:
just did it

i was having the same problem with my new xe (1.77 stock rom). after googling and messing around with my phone for several hours. i finally got it working. now i'm s-off:D

i just wrote a little guide for myself in case i forget how to do it in the future:

S-OFF Guide for Sensation XE with 1.77 stock rom

1) setup htc driver or htcsyn.

2) plug in usb in charge mode, with usb debug enabled.

3) get into root mode with adb commands.

open command prompt, go to root dircectory (where "adb.exe" is) of htcsupertoolv3 folder. (download htc super tool v3 and unzip to this folder first)

type:

adb push tacoroot.bin /data/local/tmp/tacoroot

adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/tacoroot

adb shell /data/local/tmp/tacoroot --setup

(press V+, V- and Power buttons on the phone at the same time to reboot the phone)

after reboot, type: adb shell /data/local/tmp/tacoroot --root

this will get the phone into root mode. then type: adb shell (it'll show "#" in the next line confirming root mode)

4) while in the root mode, run revolutionary.exe using the beta key generated from revolutionary.io

5) after S-OFF is done, return to normal mode by typing: adb shell /data/local/tmp/tacoroot --undo

hope this helps:)

SOLUTION

I recently did this to my sensation... unlocked with HTC dev, but turns out you cant do much with that, so from here you need to:

1. plug in you phone with usb debugging enabled and find appropriate cmw version for your phone

2. use the environment you set up with the Dev tool to flash recovery (i.e. boot to bootloader and open that same command window with fastboot in it)

You may need to look it up, but to flash recovery from here, i believe the command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" assuming you have renamed the recovery. (this is in JTniggle's guide)

That worked for me, you now have custom recovery, make backups etc...

3. now follow this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494158 - credit to SDemon700 for making it, saved my phone :D

4. make sure you follow the sub posts in his guide... i.e. JTniggle's guide helped most - dont forget to flash su.zip as it enables root (flash through recovery after)

NOTE - to get the "stock experience" rom to work, i had to flash the boot.img through the htc dev environment

"fastboot flash boot boot.img"

The boot.img can be extracted from the rom's zip file.

Once flashed i installed the rest of the rom from the zip in cmw and the rom worked

And as said in the guide, from here revolutionary.io works perfectly

Hope that helps, worked for me and im now running virtuous inquisition :D

Good luck
[HTC Sensation] fejedlm:
Same problem.

I made 10-15 pcs Sensation XE s-off, then wroted cid, changed firmware (RUU, old firmware german T-mobile, new is WWE), then made s-on.

But the last product cargo (5 pcs) arent working. When I go to revolutionary.io, then beta code what I got is wrong, not valid. Not accepted.

I tried all the 5 and nothing. (HBOOT 1.18)

BUT!

I had a one of piece from the last product, and that's working.

So nothing has changed, I didnt forget how its making.

I think so, there is something new about Z715, and now s-off is problem.:confused:

great job! nice to see more support for the Desire S
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Congratulations on your new release.

Just one question though... How is this ROM different from any other Sense 3.5 ROM currently available? I mean what are it's unique features justifying migrating to it?

Most of the Sense 3.5 ROMs currently available have some unique feature or the other, and the most popular ones include:

1. Endymion, of course

2. RcMix Runny 4

3. Virtuous Affinity

4. Proxuser's ports

5. the little guys

What unique, fresh offering does RunnyDroid bring to the table?

Please don't get me wrong, i'm not slamming your work or anything. I just want to know the USP of this ROM. That's all.

Thanks for the release! :D

Please report back how you find the speed compared to Endymion!
[HTC Desire S] imkr:
Recalculation by +1 from me ;)

I will manage to download and try out. Thanks you.
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Will do Oly.

Though i doubt it'll be faster than Endymion or anything. I mean Endy is already lag and stutter free, with performance at par with the actual Sensation XL!! I don't think there's any real scope for improvement in that sector on a Sense ROM, short of actual hardware modification!

As for eyeballing, almost all Sense 3.5 ports out there are very sommth, and comparable to each other. Don't know how else to assess speed. Quadrant has fallen out of grace with me. Nonsensical benchmark with no actual real world application, IMO.

The main reason i'm trying this out is because of the ho-hum about the best battery life among Sense 3.5 ROMs. Just wanted to test that aspect out. :rolleyes:

I reckon it's gonna be a couple of days before i can do that assessment objectively.

Am running the ICS beta3R3 currently and enjoying it, so will have to give that up for a while for this one here. But i've explored most of what ICS has to offer upto this point, and apart from a newer UI and a much better battery drain during sleep (5-7 mA) i don't think it offers anything that makes GB look bad. :cool:

I still love running it because i like to look at the expression on my buddies' faces when they see a near-normal working ICS port on my phone (Especially the SGS2 honchos who are still at a partially functioning Alpha R7 on the ICS port) :D:D:D

Just got back from the E.R. Nand backup in progress... Will report after flashing.

P.S. : Check out the mods thread for this ROM. It's neat! Especially with individual mods that keep a small footprint and don't have to be forced on a user collectively. I quite like the idea. :)

Peace. Done rambling. :p
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Ah! Nice! Cheers!

Yeah, yesterday, I went to a local store and literally used a Sensation XL and my phone side by side. They have the exact same software build number :D

I did some speed test and they were almost exactly at the same time! Even with the sensation at 1.5ghz, I couldn't tell the difference!

One thing that's different though, is the size lol.. all the icons/settings etc are massive!!

Haha

Wow, your making me more and more curious to try ICS!

I tried superkids alpha last week.. (with A LOT of broken things)

Now I'm quite curious to try this new build!!

I'll check out the mods on this page. Cheers !

Because you already used dmesg while you still could access recovery and it showed the doomed lines about your mmc0, there isn't much what can be done.
