[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Slapshot, thank you for checking the General Thread, I really do appreciate that. I have tried both methods multiple times since the root failure seeing as so many people said they had to run the methods multiple times to make them stick (this admittedly may be part of the issue). The most recent one has been the CWM ROOT VER2. Still no dice. Is there a method to remove and re install super user? Or am I reading into the error too literally and instead I just basically do not have root.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
No problem. At this point I think you may just not have root... but first, go ahead and go into bootloader (power off, then power on while holding power and vol down). Does your device say unlocked?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] travisxcore:
*Just a clarification*

You have to unroot your phone to get rid of it :p Idk why I put uninstall/reinstall earlier...still out there from last night I guess.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Yes the device still says unlocked. That was one of the first things I checked... Haha....

As I said ive flashed the rooted CWM and it says it went over successfully.

If i use the Zerg exploit it still seems to go over successfully (I realize this has a tenancy to mess with internal storage and only provide a temp root but i do not even get that temp root).

How would I unroot my device? Do you mean flash to stock and relock my boot loader?

As I said I have flashed several devices in the past (Atrix, eee pad transformer, HTC Inspire, HTC DINC, SAMSUNG GALAXY S T-Mobile) but I am not completely up to date on all of the technical terms...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Yes, I mean relock the bootloader and back to stock rom, then try again. Do you know how to get back to stock?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
actually that one I do not know how to do... I realize this is probably somewhat annoying because I am sure you have said how to do it before.... Some help would be greatly appreciated
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
I haven't told anyone how to do it surprisingly, and I'm more than happy to help :D. I was honestly thinking about adding reverting back to stock to the superguide, and I think I just may do that. Here is the link. Pirateghost is the man.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Thank you for this and all of your help, people like you and ghostpirate are why i still feel like I can turn to the XDA community. I will try this firs thing in the morning and give an update on how things went. I would try it tonight but lets be honest, its the 1st of the year and the last thing I need to be doing is messing with technology.....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
It's no problem, this isn't a dumb question or easy issue by any means. If the method I directed to you doesn't work, let me know. There is another way to do it without all the code.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Kraizk:
Worked perfectly. I flashed it back to stock using the thread you linked me to. Then I did the CWM Root method and so far so good. I appreciate all of your help
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Nice, I'm glad you were able to get everything working.

There seems to be some demon here !

My machine is a BBUY 16GB WIFI FLYER and runs very well on GB up to and including latest 2.3.4 security update.

Then I decided to move to HC. Followed GLOBATRON's guide with latest B10 based WIFI rom. Tried also LEEDROID's latest 2.0.0 and 2.1.0 kernel, but none of them enables even 10 minutes of continuous work without a freeze, random reboot, a need to reset, etc. Sometimes, even moving a widget on home screen reboots the machine.

Every installation was preceded with MD5 check, a complete WIPE, fresh install.

Was suspecting h/w issue, but then again GB runs great. Had to revert to it.

Any ideas, clues, anyone ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Jalilachach:
no idea same here
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] DigitalMD:
NO idea, I have run both Globaltron and Leedroid HC on my BB 16gb wifi for weeks and no issues. Currently running the Globaltron, no issues. Leedroid did have an occasional bootloop issue but that was recently fixed.

You might try a different ext SD card or remove all your files and format your card and see if that helps.

Also be warned that using titanium backup to restore system data or app data from a GB setup can cause issues.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aru:
...and the saga continues:

In my quest to find why all rooted and/or custom HC rom installation on my WIFI BBUY FLYER are resulting in frequent instabilities, while stock OTA from stock GB is much stabler (on my machine), I am trying to find one or more of these:

1) Any diagnostics program for FLYER, especially to test graphics hardware, internal memory, etc. (I do have a Sammy I9100 where similar diagnostics can be run through a certain code).

2) Any information on internal memory partitioning for stock HC (sizes, locations) so as to compare with my layout and seek for leftover artifacts, etc.

It is worthwhile to mention that I had my flyer running both HTCDEV unlock and Revolutionary's S-OFF simultaneously, during all my experiments with upgrading/ downgrading.

Currently, my bootloader is RELOCKED, and I run stock HC with S-ON stock hboot.

Any ideas/ help are much appeciated.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tito12:
I never had HTC unlock, just used Globatron procedure to S-off and root, then upgrade to HC, installed LeeDroid with the latest kernels and never had any bootloops. Maybe check the highlighted points...

Hope it helps :)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aru:
Thanks for your reply.

I am familiar with the link you posted, however, I would have liked to stay with HC and possibly root it. Problem is , all rooted HC roms fail for me (They boot and run but freeze and reboot randomly).

I suspect perhaps some h/w issue (less likely because GB and HC stock run ok), or some memory partition which is not "right".

Thanks anyway.

[General Questions and Answers] sparkyuiop:
Hi All.

I visited my local Carphone Warehouse shop in Dorchester yesterday where I was looking to buy the Samsung Galaxy Ace mobile phone. On all networks it was £199.99 except for ThreeUK which was only £120.00.

Having previously unlocked, rooted and custom ROM'd the Ace (thanks to XDA dev's) I thought I'd buy it on ThreeUK and put it on Vodafone when I got to the computer.

I asked the cocky know-it-all chump for the phone and got out my cash and he started ranting something about was I upgrading a PAYG mobile or did I need to transfer my number to the new SIM card.

I told him I did not need the SIM card as I had my own already but he informed me that the SIM the phone was sold with would be the only SIM that would work in it and using another SIM would IMEI block the phone.

Now I have never heard of this before and I regulary read stuff on XDA and I have seen any mention of it here either.

I thought he was just making sure he couldn't blag another 80 quid out of me so I decided to be the know-it-all chump and told him I didn't care as I was unlocking it and installing a different ROM anyway.

He told me that the PAYG SIM was tied to the IMEI number and I qoute, "as the networks are loosing too much money with unlocked phones".

I decided not to buy the phone as £120 was alot of money to lose if he was right and I could hardly go back with it blocked after this conversation.

Personally while a good idea, at least in principle from the networks point of view I can see too many negative issues arising from doing this.

Can anyone clarify any of this?
[General Questions and Answers] killall:
Can't believe that a different sim card could block the phone after it has been rooted?
[General Questions and Answers] themonk1:
Complete Bull. Impossible to do this as the network do not know if the handset you are using is unlocked or not. Also if you had your voda sim in the handset only voda would be able to nlock your phone as only they would see the IMEI being used. 3 would not know you are using another phone. Also the network only owns your sim not your phone. As a consumer it is up to you what you do with the phone. Hope this helps.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Not sure about those carriers but ATT has been locking phones to one sim card when activated. Only on prepaid at the moment but it shows it can be and is being done.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Utter bull****. As mentioned above if you are buying a sim free phone then you are buying a a free phone and you can do whatever you want with the lgone
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
Think what you will. Try it for yourself and see. The carriers here have been trying to think of a way to only allow phones they say to work on the network. Take verzion and sprint. They can refuse to activate any phone that is not in their system. ATT is working on a way to do this also.
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
He was talking of a phone on a uk network subsidised by the operator called three, unless I misunderstood.

In uk phones subsidised by some networks are locked so they will only work with specific networks sims and some have been imei locked by using msin method where only one card will work in the phone.

However if you can root the device and flash non branded firmware I think that overwrites the lock and enables non three sims.

Dave
[General Questions and Answers] russ18uk:
His wording is misappropriated: what he probably meant was that the phone was locked to the carrier so you wouldn't get network access. IMEI blocking only happens when reported lost/stolen.
[General Questions and Answers] sparkyuiop:
Well I hope your right Dave. I think 'thre3aces' is pretty much on the money with what was said to me at CW. I'm hoping the way of countering this will be as you said, by rooting / debranding and/or flashing the ROM and not by simular more complicated methods (in most cases) of unlocking the networks.

I don't think though that there is too much to worry about. It has never been a long wait for us modders to hack our phones after some fantastic new security device is wrecked by the likes of George Hotz (blackra1n) and the MadTeam's of the world etc.

And this whole thing stinks of Apple!
[General Questions and Answers] Deeco7:
The staff at phone shops (cpw/p4u) are full of bimbos whom have little or no knowledge of what they are talking about.
[General Questions and Answers] mistermentality:
Thre3aces was on about sim free phones but if you were on about a carrier subsidised payg one then yes carriers tend to lock them though only 3 and I think vodafone have been known to imei lock to one sim card and even then not very often.

I would assume the lock is firmware related though that is an assumption but if it were hardware locked then users would need a new phone if sims got damaged and that would cost more money hence the reason a firmware lock is more probable as they could more easily alter that.

If you had problems though maybe you could get a friend on 3 to ring them and say they bought a 3 phone and tried to input their sim but it failed...as an existing customer maybe three would unlock it for them?

Personally, couldn't care less. It's just for diagnostic purposes and frankly, read my text messages, I'm not hiding a thing.

Lol no offense m8 but are you also that kind who do not care about video cams everywhere, that you need to be registered with your fingerprints to have passport soon to come DNA as well plus the same for driver license?

I mean sure you do not have anything to hide because you do not think you should have a private life where what you do is your own and you can think and say what you want?

I mean come on sure if this is only used for logging in case for diagnostic but it does not mean that even tho HTC uses it for that so does your phone company or your country, as long its there they can access it as well.

No offense but I have something to hide my pirvate life my right to have a life where i'm alone with my own thoughts and being me it seems your not.

You assumed a lot about me just because of my view on CIQ. No, I'm not one of those people, its just that I understand carrier IQ is for diagnostic purposes thus I don't care if they have read any messages from me. A text message is a small part of my personal life. You think I'm 100% totally open about my life to everyone? Hell no, but text messages aren't somewhere I keep sensitive information.
[HTC Sensation] strumf666:
There is no guarantee CIQ is/will be used only for carrier diagnostic purposes and since we have no control over it no matter how you look at it, it can't be good because and it can access almost everything on the phone. We bought ourselves a very intelligent tracker/spy device ;)

Just find deodexed version of your browser from custom ROM zip files, thats the safest way..
