[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rouilj:
Failure to downgrade with zip file when using a factory restored nook

Well, I did that in one of the 9 senarios (and many more attempts) I detailed:

The first time I tried steps 1,2 and 3it was on a still rooted nook. So I

had my side loaded apps and could play streaming radio and access the

emergency response guide and ssh to other hosts.

But I also tried step 3 on an unregistered nook before finally

breaking down and doing a complete factory reset (hold down

power and N ...) and using step 3 on it.

So I claim we at this point have the same environment.

I wonder if it could be something with the boot roms? Maybe some roms

look for the zip and some don't? I don't know how to verify that though.

The model number on my nook is BNTV250 and there is an IC number of

8961A-BNTV250A I think. Kind of difficult to read it.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rouilj:
Finally 1.4.0 is loading AFAICT

Ok, I went out and bought a new 2GB sandisk micro sd card and put the zip file

on the root of it. I powered up and now have the nook picture on the NT and the installing new software process in progress.

So apparently some micro hd cards just won't work to reflash the system.

I'll update further if I have other issues.

I found this today: http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/12/h...0c#comment-6a00d83451c9ec69e2015438b1fba5970c

It's Honeycomb for Evo View 4g (my bad). I'm betting devs here will 'fix' the issues below before Sprint/HTC does... Or maybe they can use some of its code to get Sense running on ICS??

The provisos:

Your homescreen will be reset to the default HTC settings after applying this update.

Illuminated hardware keys will be disabled since Honeycomb already includes corresponding on-screen buttons.

If you are rooted, proceed with caution: you should only apply this update if your system/app folder is completely returned to stock and you have flashed your stock recovery image (not TWRP or ClockworkMod); otherwise, you will encounter errors.

Additionally, you will lose root after applying this update. The safest way to update and keep root is to wait for a developer to figure out a way to apply this update without losing root.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] snitch_95:
Ok, So I've recently updated to stock gingerbread 2.3.3 with baseband .35. I rooted my phone with the SuperOneClick method. Root was successful (Finally).

I then wanted to install a custom ROM, so I installed ClockworkMod's ROM manager, flashed the clockwork recovery image and everything. I decided to make a backup image in case I didn't like the new ROM. I then selected the "Backup Current ROM" option, and left my phone to it's own devices. When I got back about 5 minutes later, I find that I have a hard reset on my hands :| To add to that, I don't even have a backup image!

I tried doing that a couple times more, once, I even held the POWER+VOL.DOWN+HOME combo and all. The same thing happened each time. The recovery backdrop and a sliding progress appeared, after about 4 seconds, the progress bar stopped moving, it shifted back to the LG boot logo. If I kept the combo pressed, it would go on and on for about 5 times, if I released it, it would just continue on to the boot and I would get another hard reset every time. I tried "Reboot into Recovery". Same thing. Once, I selected "Install ROM from SD card", with the backup option selected. Somehow or the other, due to the combo or something, I came to a screen that had four options.

1) Reboot

2) Install from SD card:update.zip

3) Wipe data

4) Wipe dalvik cache and cache

I was able to scroll up and down with the volume rocker, but the only other button that worked was the Home button, which toggled between the screen I mentioned above and a screen where all of the text was removed and there was just the recovery background. I finally popped out the battery and booted, and got yet ANOTHER hard reset.

HELP!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
It seems Clockworkmod recovery was not flashed correctly. What you see is the stock android recovery. The recovery key mapping is:

volume rocker-up/down

menu (left most button)- select current option

back - go back

the behaviour you see when pressing the home button is normal.

After using Rom manager to install CWM recovery, it is not recommended to do further operations through rom manager, best uninstall it. Instead, boot into recovery using the three button combo and do operations from there.

I would suggest try again to re-flash CWM recovery.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] snitch_95:
Thanks, but do you have any idea WHY using ROM manager is a bad idea? Just curious.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mihir287:
Well, one reason I've encountered is that while flashing cwm recovery, if the download fails for some reason, Rom mananger has flashed the incorrectly downloaded file without verification resulting in a fastboot semi-brick for many users.

Another reason is related to the way it operates the recovery. I'm not very sure about this point, but I've seen many people having problems with backups and flashing.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] snitch_95:
Thanks, you were brilliant. I flashed another recovery from ClockworkMod, this time with a WiFi connection, and everything worked great. :D

[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
If the rooting process worked correctly.

Here is the rooted updated ATT Gingerbread ROM. Just place PD98 in root of SD card then go into bootloader and let it do its thing. When it ask to install volume up for yes. AS ADVICED " RESEARCH"

Place it in the root of your SD card (you will have to remove SD card and use adapter to move zip file to root of SD card if PC does not recognize phone with USB cable) and power phone off then power back up holding down power button and volume down button at same time. Phone should go to bootloader then it will recognize the PD98 zip file and ask if you want to istall. Volume up for yes and it will do its thing. No need to try to get into recover phone will do it itself with the PD98 zip file. Zip is (ATT ROM 2.47.502.7 w/Radio - 26.10.04.03_M)

This is for Rooted Stck ROM

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Q6YYQFIM

NO NEED TO RENAME JUST DOWNLOAD AND PLACE IN ROOT OF SD

Hope it helps

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT ANYTHING ON YOUR PHONE IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING.

Then you can flash a custom ROM if you like.
[HTC Inspire 4G] funtime707:
iv have put my sd card in my computer an put what was supposed to be a pd98img file on the sd card. i then ejected the sd card and place it in the phone, pullled the battery. put it back in and put the phone in hboot. it searches for the file but then comes up and says, either no image or wrong image. or both. what now?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Reinaldo33897:
you didnt extract the zip file did you? place the zip in sd root without extracting, also do not place in any folders. If it didnt work then something went wrong in the rooting process. You may have to go to the IRC chat talked about above.

same thing happened to me. found this int he stuck in hboot sticky

Alternate-Flashing of RUU

This is for those that don’t have access to an adapter to place files with. This should work whether your S-on or S-Off

RUU’s: http://driphter.com/index.php?topic=3872.0

1) Download your RUU from above

2) Boot into Hboot

3) Connect your phone to your PC

4) Select fastboot

5) Run the RUU program

this has worked for me multiple times.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sevenup30:
Hi everyone,

i was wondering if i'm the only one to get issue with my data.

In fact i have the 3G icon, but no network connection, i have to disable and enable data to have the H icon and data working.

i had it with stock SFR rom, stock motorola rom and custom rom.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dey.santanu2011:
have you deactivated Wifi networks.....???

Normally it should not happen. But I am not sure whether it is the phone issue or the network issue.

Last summer when I was in France, I was using SFR, and somehow I have seen that the IDLE-TIME-OUT value of the network is kept quite high, as a result of which the phone's data connection goes to sleep without getting disconnected, and it is problem re-registering again.

Install the new update if the problem keeps on coming....or if it is a unlocked version, try with another SIM card.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Droid_Razr:
yes, but I also was having sim card authentication errors AGAIN for a couple hours. I thought that was resolved a few weeks ago. But Tech support told me last night that there was an outage yesterday morning again. My OTA update finally appeared tonight after adding some files to my preinstall folder. Hopefully that update will cure the problem until ICS gets pushed out.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sevenup30:
Yes i always turn off wifi when i'm out.

The thing is that i had my desire HD for 1 year and i never had this kind of issue with SFR, it just happened since i have my razr(1 week).

Actually i'm on the retail with OTA and still have issue.

@Droid_Razr it could be a sim card issue, because i changed my sim card with my razr(micro sim) i'll try to search this way

After many attemps trying to root my lovely DHD, I'm here to ask you one question.

I've read the manual a couple of time but there's nothing to do : There is always something not working with the advanced ace hack kit.

Hello,

I rooted the DHD of my girlfriend yesterday (using the ACE HAck 171211) and everything runs perfectly.

But now we wanted to upgrade via the official OTA update (Update to 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0) and it won't update. The DHD reboots, starts to update the system and within 1-2 seceonds it stops the update and show a Warning sign.

The DHD still works with the old System (after removing the battery).

Has anyone an idea ??

PS: I still try to get her to use ARHD 6.3.1 ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gizmoe:
Once rooted you can not do factory updates. It relies on the stock recovery to install. You would have to unroot and then install ota but you wouldnt be able to root from the update until the hack kit supports the new version. You should just look for a rooted form of the new ota.
