[HTC Desire S] mystero83:
Basically I installed CM7.1 onto my stock desire s using the free version, its taken me about 6months to pluck up the courage to root and install the custom firmware, everything has gone swimmingly except for a few random hiccups I'll look into eventually. I'm noob when it comes to programming and coding and hacking, I literally follow instructions and cross my fingers, toes, eyes....you get the picture. Anyhoo, I'm considering buying CWM premium from the market in a few days but I'm reading mixed reviews so I'm wondering, who has it, is it worth getting it over the free version, I'm not in any particular hurry, but it would be great to get some feedback. Also sorry of this is in the wrong place but thanks for taking the time to read! *peace*
[HTC Desire S] kire.htc:
No!!! 4ext recovery is more organized and better for me.
[HTC Desire S] apx@dwx:
cwm premium only expand your options to control the cwm without rebooting in recovery first. it gives u just a little more comfort if u want to change your rom, create backups, etc...

if u don't have the delight to try new roms every week or something, u really don't need cwm premium :)
[HTC Desire S] Eclipse_Droid:
I would echo what the 2 guys above me said! Go for 4ext recovery and pay for the app "4ext recovery control" if you want to support the dev, and it opens up a lot of nice features!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
+1

Go for the 'premium' version of 4EXT much better for this device.
[HTC Desire S] mystero83:
Thanks for the prompt reply, I'm looking at 4ext and its sounding great but before I get that I'm wondering if it is as convenient as CWM in terms of..does it have a catalogue of roms I can install at will? I have to confess that as most reviews are saying 4ext is the best tool for root users, I will probably get it but I have to navigate my way up a steep learning curve and I'm not sure if I should start getting stuck in or carry on doing a lot of sifting through blogs and articles. I'm a great believer of "if it ain't broke don't fix it(unless I'm hacking it to play bootleg games- already wowed some people on the train by playing final fantasy 8 on the HTC with my wiimote..hehe I feel like "bow to my superior handset" but really I don't wanna stop Modding till my phone is capable of teleporting people.)" Maybe I should think smaller for now XD.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I believe that you're confusing CWM with ROM manager.

CWM is a recovery product like 4EXT.

There aren't that many custom ROMs on this device that are available through ROM manager.
[HTC Desire S] Nicuu:
I wouldn't go for it. The premium package doesn't include something significant changes and updates or options.

I would just stay with the good ol' free CWM! :)
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
+1 4ext is the way forward!

I was in a similiar dilema, bought it, and never looked back :p

It's worth it, much better than cwm+clockwork app.

Only advantage of clockwork app is it has a cool download rom support within the app!

But we don't really need that feature as there aren't a vast majority of ROMs we have with ota support anyway.
[HTC Desire S] mystero83:
Blegh! Well spotted Ben_pyatt! Actually I do mean rom manager premium rather than CMW, I assumed, as I searched clockwork mod after using revolutionary tool, then got rom manager that they were one and the same. Let this be a lesson that assume does make an ass out of u and me. In this case me. Lucky my assumption didn't lumber me with a 300 quid brick complete with gorilla glass... ok, 4ext definitely needed as a recovery tool, real question is do I need rom manager premium?
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
No fear they are written by the same person.

to add weight to the getting 4ext a new version if it was released lady night and the recovery is now completely touch controlled, the author had raised the bar got recovery programs, check it out

I've been on countless different gingerbread roms for the fascinate... but none of them seemed to have headset button support even if i changed the keylayout files. When i updated via vzw's ota, i quickly rooted and changed the keylayout file to see if the headset button would work, and it did... so up until now, ive only been running froyo roms because of that feature, which is really important to me...

Hi i am new to rooting and everything i have the htc inspire 4g and when i try to root it it will start rooting and do its thing i downloaded the hack from this website but then it will say eaarr and it will go to the stat up menu and say htc in green with white back round and just fade away and thats all it will do now this is my 5 htc inspire and it keeps doing this and i really want to root it but im scared to do it again because it all ways messes up can you help ?? now i have a new htc inspire and did not root yet but want two so ill wait for some good help till i do it again thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
WOW!! Incredible how people time and again get soo lazy they refuse to help themselves by reading. This is a DEV SITE, NOT A HELP SITE! We expect you to do research and help yourself before you ask questions that have time and again been answered. Do yourself a favor and go to the hack kit thread and read the entire thing. It's not difficult assuming you have a reading level above the 3rd grade. You'll probably notice that you either did one of two things: you either didn't follow a step or you didn't see that there is an IRC chatroom to help people with issues during the rooting process. PLEASE SEARCH AND READ before you destroy your phone.

Ze, shut her down.
[HTC Inspire 4G] geno414:
k thanks jerk sorry im NEW HEAR AND JUST NEEDED HELP WITCH YOU DIDN'T COMPREHEND
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
HAHA jerk? I see basic grammar has escaped you HERE, WHICH leads me to believe that you don't have a reading level above the 3rd grade. Do yourself a favor and stop before you destroy your phone and have to start another pointless thread that reads "OMGz I BRICKED MY PHONE BECAUSE I CAN'T READ". The hack kit is a simple tool provided you take the time to read everything, which includes both effen maunal and the OP in that thread. I can tell you didn't read ****? you wanna know why? because if you read the entire OP you would see that there is an IRC chatroom dedicated to helping those with issues during the rooting process using the hack kit. Stop being lazy. THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT SITE, NOT HOLD YOUR HAND BECAUSE I CAN'T READ FOR MYSELF SITE..something you don't comprehend.

EDIT: You've gone through 5 inspires?!?! At what point do you stop and think maybe I'm doing something wrong and should re-read the instructions on what I'm doing?!
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
I logged in just so I could chime in on this one.

Calling people names is rude and not tolerated here. If you were to answer as many questions here as some of us have you would understand the lack of patience and intolerance we sometimes express. That being said, bacon boy is right that you need to do a little more reading in the hack kit thread, if you don't find your answers there you can log onto the irc server and get help there. No offense but starting a new thread because you do not feel like doing a little bit of searching and reading on your own is pretty thoughtless and lazy. Like I said before pretty much all info you need is in the hack kit thread and in the effen manual and on the irc channel. Don't call people names here. This isn't kindergarten. Hope you get your issues sorted out.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Diesel321:
I can see all sides of this arguement. I know the feeling of "UhOh, I just bricked my phone" its frantic and scary. On the other hand when I started on XDA and was poking around reading this and that before making my move. I kept seeing. "DO YOUR RESEARCH, READ THIS, READ THE EFFEN MANUAL IT'S IN THE EFFEN HACK KIT". So I did. For 3 days I read every bit of info before downloading anything. As far as the devs I get how so many questions about nonissues can be frustrating and make you want to choke slam a stranger. But it does all boil down to the rules of XDA.

Read everything, all posts in a thread AMD the Q&A thread of whatever you initially looking at and only post if you can find the answer somewhere else. But most of all read the instructions.

Are you 100% sure you totally bricked all 4 of your previous phones? Be wise there's been at least 4 times I thought I bricked mine. And they aren't cheap so youu may want to be sure of that because it seems you probably have just spent a grand on phones. Sorry for your troubles. Cyrax is a good guy and I'm sure he can help with whatever the issue is.

Now everyone just take a deep breath.......... And exhale.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Agreed please read up on what your doing. Modding the software on your phone is no simple thing. Yes it has been made easy but in no way is it simple. Please read up and search. What ever happened believe me your not the first to have it happen.

As for the replies. Outright insulting people will not be tolerated. By ANYONE!

[HTC Sensation] kboater:
so I keep getting stuck at Waiting for fastboot on the revolutionary .exe on the computer....

the phone is on a white screen that at the top says locked. has hboot, down below has fastboot, bootloader, reboot..

now what?

Edit: the above is on a windows vista computer

im now tring on a windows xp computer and Revolutionary software wont even recognize the waiting for device....

so i cant get either to work.....

it is closer on the first one where i am stuck at Waiting for Fastboot on revolutionary and the phone is on the locked bootloader white screen.

plase help me out
[HTC Sensation] vash429:
go into the phone settings, then power and uncheck fast boot. you might have to close the program first I think, and then repeat the procedure.
[HTC Sensation] kboater:
I have done it, I am still stuck in the same place...

more help is greatly appreciated
[HTC Sensation] exb0:
if it's <... waiting for fastboot > or something similar , UNCHECK fastboot from the power settings, turn off the phone, turn on while holding vol down. That will boot the phone into fastboot and your computer should recognize it.
[HTC Sensation] kboater:
ok, trying now. should i do that to the phone while the Revolutionary program is at the Waiting for fastboot?
[HTC Sensation] kboater:
Same thing. when i get into fastboot, Windows pops up the found new hardware and wants to install drivers. I thought I had installed all the drivers.....

so still same thing....

EDIT: same thing again. so i was thinking maybe for some reason even though i installed the drivers with HTC sync, maybe i needed to do it again. so i installed htc sync again, made sure drivers were installed. then deleted htc sync. then opened Revolutionary, entered code... bascially gets to same place and says waiting for fastboot; and the device looks like it is booting into fastboot (assuming fastboot is the white screen with options). then it just stays there and i get a window popping up asking me to install drivers. If i ignore that window, Revolutionary and phone stay in same place. if i try to install drivers, it just says it cant and I still just sit there....
[HTC Sensation] kboater:
damn this is frustrating.

Same freaking thing. Program says waiting for fastboot. widows pops up a found new hardware needs to install drivers (which i have done about 5 times) and phone looks like it is booting into fastboot (white screen)

and all just stay there.....what am i doing wrong? how long should i let it sit like this?

[HTC Sensation] kontroversus:
Guys make sure that you have USB Debugging enabled under development options and run revolutionary.exe as admin... (right click-> run as admin)
[HTC Sensation] P-Dub:
I just came across this problem while trying to permanently root using revolutionary 0.4pre4. Android version was 2.3.5, hboot was 1.3 and with no OTA installed ever.

Apparently it was driver problem on Win7x64. I had HTC Sync installed(all processes were ended with task manager(this worked when I rooted my 4G on XP) and PDAnet installed. I came across and followed the "Pre-Installation" section at the rootzwiki Revolutionary section(can't post links yet).

While in recovery on my phone and "waiting for fastboot", I went to device manager and manually updated the drivers from my C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Win7_x64 directory. At that moment revolutionary continued, rebooted several times and finally said it failed. My phone booted into recovery and it showed S-off and revolutionary at the top!

After rebooting the phone, it gave me the activation and profile/prl update prompts, but all my data and apps were still there. I only had to sign back into google, but from here I can flash a recovery and install a zip to gain root.
[HTC Sensation] the-blind-bandit:
where did you get your phone?
[HTC Sensation] EvilAzza:
Works

Cheers for that, final step I was stuck on. Revolutionary then reset hboot 4 times and during one it changed to s-off then after the last -Revolutionary- at top. Then clockwork mod installed also.
[HTC Sensation] lucassoxda:
OMG, THANK YOU!

I usually don't bother to thank in forums, because I consider it a littering. But this time I couldn't resist. After 7 hours of trying all the fancy ways of installing the drivers, I tried the directory you mentioned and volia!
[HTC Sensation] mikedenney:
Simi-larly

OK, same shinola here, but also got mine done without downloading HTC Sync for Aria, at same point, by just right-clicking the 'Revolutionary' Android ADB driver from 'Device Manager', then clicking 'Scan for Hardware Changes' and letting Windows re-install the LAST driver I'd (just) tried (which was either the one automatically installed via 'Windows Update', or--much less likely--the one I'd found while trying to use the 'Unrevoked' method).

Regardless, all I'm saying is there turns out to be more than one way to skin this ruthlessly messy cat. I'd almost forgotten how difficult the Aria was (while definitely remembering how unrewarding it could be).

Anyway, at this point, 'Revolutionary' finished up immediately, after sticking at that spot for more than 15 minutes...and just took one reboot to come up saying 'Revolutionary' in red up top, as well as 'S-OFF', so...I'm on my way.

Actually, by the time I finished typing this, I've already used it to install CM7.2 (I know--that's all!) and gapps for it (while also ALMOST forgetting the silly speed-bump about 'up-arrowing' through those recovery menus to make the 2nd pages of menus actually show up!).

Overall, I'm here to say 'thanks' guys...and as always, 'thanks again' to XDA for being the ultimate grouping of resources for all things Android!
[TouchPad General] newbieandroid:
Does anyone know where I can find CM7 soft buttons in a zip/apk format to use with the Touchpad?
[TouchPad General] The Jack of Clubs:
what do you mean? they are part of cyanogenmod. to tweak them, go to settings > cyanogenmod settings > tablet tweaks > choose soft buttons. if you want to change the way they look, either find a new cyanogen mod theme and select it with theme chooser, or moddify /system/apk/systemui.apk yourself.
[TouchPad General] newbieandroid:
I know what soft keys are... I am liking for the orginial look from the cm7 Tom. I am currently running xron an amazing costume rom based off of cm7 but I prefer the look of the orginial soft keys and can't seem to find a theme that contains them. But thank you for pointing out the apk that I would moddify to get the soft keys.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dlbiggs:
What I am trying to figure out is if I can use my Droid Bionic as the internet source to my router, using the usb tether option.

I am trying to provide a stronger signal to other devices in my house, and to have a private network that will work my printer, satellte tv, etc.

Is this possible?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] douglasmcusmc:
Not that i know of unless using the wireless tether and using your router to jump the signal.. if tour router supports it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MillionManMosh:
Wireless signal repeating is a part of the 802.11n spec. If you have a wireless-N router there should be a firmware option to enable it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] fxmech:
Maybe USB tethering to a PC is the solution. The steps required after that might get complex, but in short your goal is to bridge that connection to your standard ethernet adapter on the PC.

Plug the ethernet from your PC into the router. Put this in place of where your modem typically connects and you should be only a few networking tutorials away from a configuration that works.

USB tethering isn't supported on your router most likely, or any router for that matter. That's why you are going to have to put a PC running Vista+ or Ubuntu 10+ (others may work) for interfacing the connection to a standard ethernet cable.

If a repeater is all you need this won't be useful for you.

Personally, I intend to configure my network to use the 4G connection's superior upload rate, as my ISP at home provides 3Mbps upload while 4G gets 10Mbps.

Using modified firmware on the router will make many things possible. You may want to check out DD-WRT (what I'm currently using) or Tomato.

Do you want both WAN connections (ISP and 4G) to be available to your network?

Sorry if I'm confusing anyone. =)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dlbiggs:
Just the 4g.

I currently use the wireless tether option, which provides me 4g internet access for all devices in my house, but I do not have much latitude as far as distance ( the further away the device is from the phone, quality of service declines).

I know that I can USB tether the phone using pda-connect, which works rather well. I just want to use my wireless printer without a lot hassle, and have 1 network that is complete.

Dan
[Motorola Droid Bionic] chadbh74:
USB.. Not without additional hardware people have already mentioned.

Your router can pick up the WiFi tether from you phone and use it. I have this setup at home with my LinkSys WRT54G. Its called "repeater" mode. I'm not saying it can do it with the stock firmware, but it can thanks to the DD-WRT firmware I loaded onto it. Just google DD-WRT. Many older routers can install it freely. They started charging registrations for some newer routers. That's why I bought a used WRT54G off e-bay for $20 bucks, since I didn't have a router anyways
[Motorola Droid Bionic] fxmech:
I would agree with the previous setup also.

But really, there's no better router than a book and an old dusty PC. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] calimansi:
I want to do exactly this.

Currently, I have limited functionality with an old cradlepoint router. The router works fine with PC's and mac's but not the iPad. I narrowed the problem down to the MTU setting which cannot be adjusted on the router or the iPad.

I was thinking about purchasing one of those sapido routers, but I'm not sure if it supports the bionic. The price is right though.

Any update on this thread?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] calimansi:
Hey again gang,

So, I did it... I purchased a sapido router from amazon... this one to be exact:

http://www.amazon.com/Sapido-GR-173...OY/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1327437644&sr=8-11

I received the router yesterday and connected it to my phone and it works beautifully... better and faster than any other internet service provider we have out here (Time Warner, Local telcom, clearwire, etc...). Just to let all of you know too, I have the 901 ROM installed on my phone, so no more disconnects. I was watching veetle all night and not one hickup.

All I did to get everything to work was go into settings, Wireless & networks, Tetehring & Mobile Hotspot and check USB tethering. The router finds the connection instantly and the green light comes on indicating that we have internet!!

Ethernet and wireless work great to my desktop and laptop. I did try it out with my iPad. The connection to the iPad mostly works, but it does take forever to get some pages. To remedy this, if you do get the router, change the MTU settings from 1492 to 1400 and then everything works beautifully to an iPad.

Best of luck to all of you who decide to use your phone as the main source of internet to your home through the usage of the outstanding sapido router!

Thanks.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mflagg:
Howdy,

Same here. I went with the Sapido RB-1733 from Amazon. Works fine as a regular router, and I can plug my Bionic into the USB port and charge it while its using the tether option. Much better at having a full size router spreading your wifi around the house, besides wired networked stuff. :)

later...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dlbiggs:
Purchased gr-1733, but can not get it to work properly. Please tell me the settings you used to get this working. I am using verizon bionic with 4g.
