[HTC Desire S] technohead:
hi, i have had the same problem as the first post (but my device is a uk branded vodafone).

i have managed to upgrade my hboot to 2.00.002

i also have have a working recovery

then have been able to unlock the bootloader using the process on htcdev.com

i have then flashed a rom using recovery.

the problem i now have is that after i flash the rom then reboot it just hangs on the white htc screen.

i still cannot use adb (only fastboot)

the phone is unlocked (in purple)

ship s-on

[HTC Desire S] bad-wimpie:
relock bootloader

Hi technohead

dont shoot me if im wrong but i think you have to relock bootloader first.

im new too this too but hope it helps you.
[HTC Desire S] technohead:
just tried that bad-wimple, still hangs on the white htc screen.
[HTC Desire S] bad-wimpie:
flash the boot.img separately

reading here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525692

they say when you unlocked with htcdev you need to flash the boot.img separately after flashing the rom. Otherwise you'll suffer a bootloop or stuck at white screen
[HTC Desire S] technohead:
thanks bad-wimple it now boots up!!!

now all i have to do it revert it back to stock so i can send it back for warranty repair (bottom 1/4 of touchscreen doesnt work)
[HTC Desire S] just_adrian:
Stuck on bootloader, solved with XTC-clip

Hi.

I know the thread is old, but I found myself in the same situation after trying to revert to stock (stupid, I know, but when it itches, you have to scratch it, right?) :

- HBoot 0.98.0002 S-ON

- version-main: 12.10.401.5

RUU didn't work (even with goldcard, complaint about version), different attempts to flash various zip/img failed etc.

Turns out that the ONLY way to solve it (apart from mauling the phone with a hammer), is by S-OFFing with XTC Clip.

After you get S-OFF, follow this thread to bring your phone back from zombie-realm. :)

Worked a treat for me!

LE: Forgot to mention. Whenever you feel like trying to get back to stock, you can avoid this ugly pitfall by ALWAYS setting the version to 1.00.000.0 (follow step 2 from this thread), while you are still S-Off and have root access, BEFORE you try to flash the stock rom, EVERYTIME you try to flash a stock ROM.

This way, if things go bad, you can easily use the RUU/Goldcard combination to get your phone working again.

Unfortunately I had to learn it the hard way (it also cost me £10). :D

[HTC Desire S] just_adrian:
Quickest (and perhaps the only) way to solve it, unlock the phone with XTC Clip (physical tool, not software). It removes sim-lock, gives you Super CID (you can flash any RUU, not only Vodafone in your case) and most importantly, turns security off. After you have S-Off, you can flash recovery, afterwards flash a rooted ROM, boot up your phone and change misc_version.

Follow the instructions in my previous post in this thread and you should get your phone back, just as I did.
[HTC Desire S] kouriboss:
:( i can't buy XTC clip because i live in Mali

i think it's really finish for my DS

:( :mad:
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Hey it seems that you flashed the 1.28.401.1 RUU which appeared to be a wrong one since your version is VODAP203 (Vodafone) try with a Vodafone RUU :)
[HTC Desire S] just_adrian:
Can't you find a phone shop/dealer which has one? The tool was quite popular in the early days when software S-Off exploits were not around.

Also try creating a goldcard (doesn't matter where, you can use another android phone or even a simple card reader) and flashing the latest RUU that you can find (2.10.401.9 as far as i know), should work once you get the goldcard done properly.
[HTC Desire S] kouriboss:
It's work!!

with the goldcard and RUU_SAGA_vodafone 1.32.163.1

thanx everybody

[HTC Desire S] iinock:
i used a samsung 8 gb sd card for my gold card, maybe thats why the gold card won't work. managed to find a 1gb LG card from an old LG phone. i hope this works :fingers-crossed:
[HTC Desire S] just_adrian:
Yes, try with another sdcard, your misc_version should be fine. Try to use the lastest RUU that you can find, should be 2.10.401.9
[HTC Desire S] iinock:
YES!!!!!!!! Thanks guys. I tried with another SD card (LG 1gb) then used OTA_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8-1.47.401.4_release_225210uj1q93xrps74xzje

(flashed it as PG88IMG.zip)

since i couldn't find 2.10.401.9

Now it works :D

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLine05:
Hey guys, I am trying to find someone who has an incredible and willing to help out a fellow android enthusiast. I need to get a basic nandroid backup so that I can install it through fastboot on a phone that doesnt have adb or sd card capabilities at the moment.

So basically, I am looking for some generous soul to:

1. Make a backup of their current set up.

2. Wipe everything.

3. Reboot phone into Android OS (do not put in any personal info)

4. Go into recovery and make a Nandroid backup again.

5. Upload backup file and pm me the link

6. Restore first backup to get their phone where it was.

Please help me out here so I can try and get this phone back up and running, this is my last resort. Thanks in advance!

I'm not positive, but I don't believe you can restore my nandroid on your phone.

[HTC Rezound] DaPitt84:
I'm a lil upset. Phone has been amazing. I just got got to work today and they had to exchange it. Anyone had the reboot loop?

New one is having internet issues already. Not getting connection. Constant reloading 4g.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Check the stickies above. There's an answer to bootlooping in there, you might have been able to avoid your exchange.

Is LTE turned on in your mobile network settings? I had 4g connection problems before where it was getting turned off. The app LTE on/off from the Market helped with that. You can make sure it's turned on there as well as setting it for LTE/voice only if you like.

Also, I had a problem with no 4g and noticed I hadn't clicked in one of the cover's corners tight enough, the one in the upper right if you're facing the screen, closest to the lens if you're looking at the back cover. That's the corner that has the LTE antenna inside.

So, I plan on getting an extended battery once Verizon ships me a new HTC Rezound (due to speaker & overheating problems) and I was curious about where you got your extended battery, and the price you paid for it?

Well, I took a trip to Verizon today and was told that they didn't have any in stock and I would have to order it for 79.99. Obviously, I know there has to be cheaper.

So guys, lets hear it, where did you get your Battery + Back, and at what price?
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
I bought mine right from Verizon, they where on sale for $30 each (I bought three)

[HTC Rezound] HTC Rezound:
When was this ):
[HTC Rezound] pgreeny69:
+1. Bought mine last week for $29.99 on sale for half off. Box said $59.99 rang up for $29.99 . I think if the sale is over HTC PEDIA had them on sale for $32.44. Yep just checked. Good luck .
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
yep, got the same price at verizon. They didn't have any out front, matter of fact, none of the rezound accessories were outfront...

Price was 59.99, rang up 29.99, was told that happens all the time. I asked how long the sale would be going on and they thought until at least the end of the month.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Guess Imma stroll into the local verizon store today.

[HTC Rezound] jalin725:
Just picked it up about 30 mins ago for 29.99 from VZW
[HTC Rezound] HTC Rezound:
Do you think if I call Verizon, they would know if its on sale? I don't want to go in, get one, then when the person rings it up as $60 Say I don't want it anymore.
[HTC Rezound] dejahboi:
Pick mine up for $30 as well, and asked if they can do some kind of combo deal if i added the otterbox defender :D. I got it both for $60, but yeah hurry now, the ext. battery sale is for this month only.
[HTC Rezound] Clamster:
I went and got the extended battery today and they told me the sale was over, it rang up at 49.99. Did a bundle deal and paid 42 after tax. I did take care of my overheating problem though. Used to hit 127 degrees and lose 25% of battery playing shine runner. Now it didn't go over 111 and lost 8%. I'm happy.
[HTC Rezound] douger1957:
I got mine for $30 yesterday when I got the phone. Now the phone weighs about what my Incredible did with the 3500 mAh battery.

Thus far...rather light usage since I really don't have "new phone syndrome" this time, I've barely budged the battery indicator with the phone up for four hours. The Incredible would be down below 85% under similar conditions.
[HTC Rezound] TypoCorrecto:
First post...

I just picked up mine from the Verizon store today for $32 after taxes. Just gave them my number and they applied the discount...
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
I'm not seeing it on the site. Guess I'll just go to the store and check.

Sent from a Rezound, crappy camera included.
[HTC Rezound] TypoCorrecto:
Yeah, just go in the store give them your number so they can look up your account and see if you have a discount. It may work on other accessories as well.
[HTC Rezound] txkorm:
Picked mine up today. If you haven't done it yet, it sounds like tomorrow is your last chance.

KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] Evo4gLI:
Just grabbed one today myself...doesn't really add too much weight to the phone or anything....salesman said he thinks the sale ends tomorrow or the 3rd, so if you want one half price, you're running out of time.
[HTC Rezound] luke1333:
im picking up a rezound tomorrow at verizon and selling my bionic. so the extended battery in the store is only $30?? the rezound after company discount is only $259 so i hope the battery is only $30!
[HTC Rezound] HTC Rezound:
Ya I went on the 31st and at first he's like wow its 60 bucks so I'm like whatever ill take it -_- then he said he was going to try to get me I discount and he asked if I want 2 for 1 so I obviously I said sure, and I thought, well that's better than 1 for 1 and then he finally asked if I want one for 30 and I was so happy. I batteries amazing by the way
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danny.25:
Hy,

Since is my first time rooting a android device I have a couple of questions.

It is better to swap SD card with another one just for flashing ?

Themes and other stuffs should be flash from bootloader ?

Thank you!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benjamin.j.goodwin:
I wouldn't bother. Just make sure it's correctly formatted, which will wipe it of course and then go from there.

If you are on about changing it every time you go to flash a theme or something it's not necessary and a bit of a pain to do this every time.

Most you will have to flash in recovery, not bootloader. Well that's what I have found.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danny.25:
ok thank you

[General Questions and Answers] cfkc:
I have a HTC HD2 windows phone.

I wanted to be able to use android apps on it i looked about and saw rundroid but not sure on what else i need to get it to work this will enable me to boot to both windows or android.

I downloaded it and followed to instructions but did not fully work, i think because i need to have a version of the android software on my SD card

I downloaded 2.3.3 gingerbread but still did not work, might not have it in the correct place or file extension ?

can someone tell me what version of android i should use and where i can D.L it from, and where it needs to be on my phone for the rundroid software to work fully.

thanks

Thank you very mutch in advanced ! :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] peshal:
The CRT off animation on G2x really sucks. But i just realized that the animation works really awesome when my phone is connected to my LED TV via HDMI. The animation not only appears as expected in the tv but also in the phone itself. So why the animation performs as expected on the phone when the phone is connected to the tv via hdmi and not when it is not connected.

This is my video running ICS alpha on G2x you can notice in the screen off animation in the first few seconds

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGYYC2EAXK8&feature=g-upl&context=G290ce20AUAAAAAAAAAA

I think the problem is not in the lcd display. Because people before said that the G2x with lcd display cannot display the CRT animation properly. When hdmi is connected my G2X displays the animaltion just like the Nexus device
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I've been wondering about this as well!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
I would love to know as well. CTR looks nice on the MT4G, but looks ugly on stock based ROM's on the G2x. Although CM7 on the G2x CTR is decent and definitely better than how it looks on stock based LG GB ROM's. But it still isn't as good as I've seen on my old MT4G, or any other phone like the Nexus Line.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I really want this issue to be looked into!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LuponX:
Heh that's pretty interesting. For me the CRT animation goes too fast on stock and Weapon but is slower on CM7 but only half the animation shows on there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I noticed that on 2.3.3 ROMs
[T-Mobile LG G2x] psychoace:
What is wrong with the off animation? I haven't got my G2X yet so I haven't seen it first hand. Is it a slow off animation? If so then the Nook had this same problem awhile ago. It seemed to do with the cpu was to slow at idle to handle the animation. If you bumped up your minimum cpu speed the animation would go at normal speed. I'm not saying bump your minimum cpu is the answer but somehow the system needs to know that you need a higher cpu speed to handle the animation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
Mine looked fine until I used Spare Parts to speed up animations. I prefer the snappiness of the interface and will take the trade off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techbeck:
So after a week, my 3g and 4g are working again. I went through the whole talking to level 2 support, visiting the store and swapping out my phone/sim card...and that all didnt help. Probably something on Verizon's side and NOT THE PHONE.

So if you are having problem with Verizon's LTE Galaxy Nexus, call them and log a ticket and have an engineer look at the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biggestmexi:
thanks.

I am having problems in my area of central IL.

this is stupid bad.

But if it isnt fixed tomorrow im still going to get a new. Might as well get a new phone while its ****ing back to stock.

oh, also flashing it back to stock formatted the internal memory. ALL OF IT.

so all my kids christmas pics on there are toast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Why would all your kids Christmas pics be toast?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Should've taken the pictures off before formatting...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] randypurcz:
With the pics that the nexus takes, your probably better off with them erased before anyone had a chance to see them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biggestmexi:
im used to the droid, and droid x where flashing doesnt erase internal memory. being that the memory for the phone is internal, it gets wiped.

I wasnt expecting that, but i should have been i suppose.

yeah, i wasnt used to that.

I will learn now. It even took out my back ups.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cykotix:
What did they do to fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] biggestmexi:
lol, they have done nothing.

they said it is an Issue in a few counties. if it doesnt work by tomorrow i will get a new one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techbeck:
Not sure what they did but probably took them a while to fix mine because of the holidays. I had already got a new GN and sim card from the Verizon store and that didnt fix the issue. The problem with me not getting 3g/4g was on Verizon's end and a network engineer had to look at and resolve the problem. I got a call back Monday (like they said they would) but have not returned the call yet. Making sure the prob is fixed/stable before I call. So far, all is good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] techbeck:
Yea, I had pics and a couple of videos. I ran back home and did a backup of the photos (and unrooted my phone) before doing a complete factory reset. I miss the external SD card slot for the soul purpose of storing pics/vids and easy backup/removal. Just have to remember that when doing and custom ROM work or phone service to backup all vids/pics.

Oh, I was in Northern IL around the Freeport/Rockford area and had the data issues. So hopefully yours is fixed to...but like I said, probably busy around the holidays and the 3.7 million android activations that carriers have had this year. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kangxi:
That's the whole purpose of Google+ instant upload. Automatically saves all your pics and video to a private album that you can always access. I never worry about my pics and vids because they are always there, in full quality.

I set it to sync over wifi and when charging, which is usually when I'm home or going to sleep. Take a bunch of pictures during the day, delete the ones you don't want and sync them automatically over night. Done and easy.
