Can you clarify whether you need to remove the SIM card and SD card before connecting the phone with USB debugging enabled? Or doesn't it matter?

bjlabuk
[HTC Desire S] Wout2426:
I didn't so i gues is doens't matter.
[HTC Desire S] dtronics:
sure updating thread but just to let you know when i did it both sim card and sd card was inserted. sim card dont need to be in but without a sd card inserted you will get an error. you need the sd card as it acts as a temp space for the root package
[HTC Desire S] dtronics:
that could be a fault with the rom did you format everything except the sd card in the partitions menu for clockwork recovery
[HTC Desire S] bjlabuk:
Just followed your steps exactly and it worked a treat! Phone now rooted but still S-ON.

Thanks

I feel as if I am getting somewhere now.

[HTC Desire S] hardbouw:
Just to post my experiences, It does not work with S-ON, it managed to install the root app, but it crashes when you try to open it, Im now going to search further for on how to get S-OFF.

your ready to do the root process again. let us know if it works this time.
[HTC Desire S] No-New-Phone:
I have just rooted my desire S using this guide, worked great. Now S-On and on rooted stock ROM.

I have used a rooted phone before, and the first thing was to install custom recovery (4ext). When I try to install 4ext Recovery (from within the app), it finishes confirming with something like "everything done". Actually it's not. Recovery is still stock.

Does your procedure work with 4ext?

UPDATE

I have no Idea what has happened. I could solve it, now I have the 4ext recovery touch installed and everything is fine. I did it by downloading the recovery from within the 4ext-app. It will be placed on zipped on the sdcard. Then:

adb pull sdcard/4EXT[name-of-the-download].zip

unzip the zip

adb reboot-bootloader

fastboot recovery recovery.img

done.

It has worked this time, I could enter the recovery menu by using the Power-Menu within the 4ext-app.
[HTC Desire S] odyon:
Hi No-New-Phone, I don't understand this line: "fastboot recovery recovery.img"

fastboot doens't have a recovery option. Didn't you mean fastboot update recovery.img?

Update: aah, you meant "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"... it worked!

Getting stuck at step 7

I am getting stuck at step 7. I have already posted it on xda developers. Since the steps I followed are same as mentioned here, can someone please help me out. Please check this link for details : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22659667#post22659667

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
I didn't see it mentioned anywhere in this thread or in the guide itself, so I'll write.

AFAIK from other forums, when you unlock the phone with HTC Unlock tool, it will NOT accept boot.img (kernel) from recovery, ONLY by fastboot command. So, if you root, flash custom recovery and flash another ROM - you'll have to extract boot.img from that ROM and flash it manually through fastboot. No more automatic ROM flashing from recovery.

This is the price for using the unlock tool.

[HTC Desire S] rusor123:
I unlocked the bootloader with HTCDEV; i tried SuperOneClick afterwards. At the first try the process came to a halt and the window didn't respond, then i disabled fastboot and tried again, the same situation occured.

My bootloader shows that it's ***UNLOCKED*** and S-On.

Can anyone tell me what's wrong?

Thanks.

Hi,

I try to root with this tutorial but no luck. Root Checker Basic say that device has no root privelege.

@ dtronics One more thing you didn't mention that SuperOneClick will install any other SW like BusyBox.

Anyway you ned to work on this guide :)

[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Greets - Although I have been using Titanium for 2 years now, I have never really had the need to restore wholesale. Now that I am on Rezound #3 I wanted to restore a Titanium Backup I made of #2 just before turning it in ... but when I did, I got all kinds of force closes and crashes.

I did NOT try to backup system apps; just user apps+data and settings.

So I am wondering ... is there a right way to try to get back everything (including my Sense desktop icons) that I am not doing?

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Wondering the same.
[HTC Rezound] Izeltokatl:
No, just do a restore of all apps with data and you should be good to go. Been using TB on four Android phones now (3yrs?). Just don't go restoring system apps across different phones or very different roms.

If you got a snag when restoring system data, restore on segments. But honestly, google handles the data restore just fine.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
:)

I am not trying to restore system data (or apps) from other phones or other ROMs (although there are no other ROMs). I was trying to restore system data (and apps) from one stock Rezound to another. Something in that restore made the phone very "force close"y

With this, is there a 'right way' to restore system data (from one stock rezound to another stock rezound) to avoid force closes?
[HTC Rezound] rfarrah:
You would think that it should work since they are supposed to be the same system. But I don't think you'll be happy with the results. Every individual phone seems to be different, even the same (replacement) models. FWIW, I've learned to be happy with just restoring my apps and the app data.

Anyway, good luck!

From what I've heard, restoring system data is a great way to get fc's, even if its from the same device.

True, I've only restored Apps and App Data in the past and never had a problem.

What other info I should be providing? It's officially unlocked, I have not rooted it yet. Let me know what other info I should be giving here. Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] keithmoore:
In the 'About Tablet' screen there is a build number displayed like 'P7510XXKH3'.

In general Samsung releases follow:

P7510 is the model

XX is the region/carrier

KH3 is the build

XX = Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom

K=2011

H=August

3=revision

Depending on what region/carrier your tablet has will determine when (if) you get a new release. Not all regions are released at the same time e.g. some translations may take longer, or a release is only made to a 'select few' to determine any issues. Or the carrier wants to test/add their own customisations.

In the UK we have had KH3 for a couple of months, and are waiting for 3.2 as well.

Though there does seem to be some variations on the release numbering scheme e.g. my i9000 on Vodaphone says it is BUJV9, V is not a month, thouth it is a Vodaphone release not Samsung.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tabing:
keithmoore so there is no official update 3.2 for GT-P7510?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] keithmoore:
Yes, there is, but only a few regions seem to have it so far. The US definately have it (though it took them twice to get it right), but in the UK we are still waiting (unless you use a custom ROM).

i (tried) to format my sd card with the clockwork mod app (not recovery) but it failed and when i rebooted my phone was soopah doopah ultra mega bricked³, i believe is the technical term

it "boots" to a black screen when the battery is inserted and none of the buttons, capactive or physical, work and the only way to power it off is to pull the battery

my computer only picks up some qualcomm-usb-whatever drivers (been a while since i plugged it) which according to the internet has to do with some sort of qualcomm download mode

i was hoping to jtag it, because according to the internet, its the ultimate recovery tool, but i have no clue how to use it and cant find a good guide on the internet specifically for an evo or something related

i have a board coming, so now i need your guys help using it and getting the software i need to reload my evo

i just wanna do a 100% total restore of the entire system, since id venture to guess thats the easiest and probably only option at this point

I AM SOOPAH DOOPAH ULTRA MEGA GRATEFUL FOR ANY HELP YOU GUYS CAN PROVIDE!!! :D :D :D

note: i would have probably gone to sprint to get a new one a day later, but right now im deployed to afghanistan so even if there was a sprint store here i dont wanna have to set up an entire convoy and send ied clearance and all that good stuff :p

edit: drivers are called "QHSUSB_DLOAD" although i was pretty close to guessing the name, atleast i think so

[Epic 4G Apps] OperationMove:
No it is absolutely not worth it. That's mine (and alot of others) opinion of course, but it's certainly not. It barely has any customization, so basically its like having a stock android launcher, with a few built in widgets that do 3d tricks, and the pretty 3d carousel view. Other than that, it doesn't do anything special besides eat alot of memory, battery life, and money out of your pocket. Mine friend bought it, and it was a total waste he's back on ADW Ex.:cool:
[Epic 4G Apps] DCRocks:
That depends on if you really like what it does.

If you "love it", then yah, it is worth it, as a launcher can reshape your entire phone interaction.

I got it for my GF, and she loved it on her EVO, but when I upgraded her to the ET4G, I switched her to ADW Ex, mainly so her new phone looks just like my Epic, (except a pink theme)

Would I buy it again,... probably.

Mainly because I jump on every launcher, given the massive changes launchers can do, I cant resist checking out each new one as soon as I get the chance.

Overall, I think it is overpriced for what it does, but a large part of that may be I am simply not a widget person, nor do I like icons on my desktop, and the main attractions of this launcher, at least IMO, are the animated widgets.
