[G2 and Desire Z General] flak999:
I get unlock my bootloader today, and YES there is S-ON, but on the top is written in hboot menu big letters UNLOCKED (How you thinks, htcdev joke?).

I've installed clockworkmod using fastboot:

fastboot flash recovery clockwork_mod_for_vision.img

Then put off battery and turn on phone with volume down + power, I pressed 'recovery' menu option. Clockworkmod runs correctly. Then tried last stable CyanogenMod 7.1.0, flash was done without errors, I wiped out what's need (cache, data). Next I tried run phone, but freezes at splash (green htc letters on white background).

I tried also miui mod, but Ive got only MIUI splash screen nothing else.

Then I restored my htc from backup (done before flashing using clockworkmod) and Im still on the stock htc android 2.3.3.

Regards,

Mariusz

p.s Sorry for my poor english.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rskainth82:
how can I install CM7 or other roms after unlocking the bootloader

Hi,

I also unlocked using the official method of unlocking the bootloader. How can I get root and install CM7 now? Even to install clockwordmod its asking me root the phone.

Can someone help me out here?

Thanks...

RSK
[G2 and Desire Z General] pentie:
1. boot to fastboot mode, flash a custom recovery (recommand ClockWorkMod), power down the phone.

2. put your downloaded update_cm7.xxx.zip into sdcard, boot phone into recovery

3. choose in the recovery, first "wipe data", then "install update from sdcard", choose the zip file you just put in.

4. choose "reboot system"

that's all to go.
[G2 and Desire Z General] flak999:
I did it, but CM7 doesnt boot.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pentie:
Booting problem is mostly kernel related, do you have logcat output? (run "adb logcat" and boot the phone)

I encountered with the situation (w. another phone) that the recovery can't flush the boot partition during the recovery installation, I have to extract the boot.img file from the zip and flash it manually in the fastboot mode (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

EDIT:

That was a EVO3D with UNLOCKED HBOOT, I believe you're having the same situation, try my method or may others make out a better perfect solution ? (not my own phone, I just helped with its owner, no time to dig the details)
[G2 and Desire Z General] flak999:
Thanks men thats worked for me. First flash the boot.img from CM7.0.1 then run recovery and run update_cm7.0.1.zip. After reboot everything run corectly.

Once more thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] pentie:
now I confirmed the UNBLOCKED HBOOT somehow blocks the CWM to flash boot.img :eek:

My Phone have a S-OFF HBOOT and i was considering flash it to the UNLOCK the last night, now it seems not worth the try ~ :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] salleq:
My friend has an officially unlocked Desire Z as well and I gave him these instructions to try it out, he has the same boot problem (stuck at splash screen). Maybe this information should either be stickied or added to a faq until there is a real solution to the problem (unlike this workaround), updated cwm or something like that.

Anyway thanks for sharing this information.:cool:
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
HTC bootloader unlock tool is quite restrictive. It still leaves you S-ON, so you won't be able to flash a new hboot or radios.

I recommend avoiding it and using the current well-proven methods from the XDA Wiki.

Sent from my Desire Z running CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rskainth82:
Its working now...

Steps I followed:

1. flash recovery using fastboot

2. Do a nandroid backup using recovery

3. flash boot.img using fastboot

4. reboot into recovery

5. wipe data/cache

5. install update for CM7, and gapps

Also make sure before doing any of these steps you have copied CM7 and gapps update onto sdcard.

Thanks everyone for helping out.
[G2 and Desire Z General] spookievision:
I am experimenting with this myself and I don't seem to be having the same issues flashing a boot.img from an update.zip in ClockworkMod recovery with the official HTC unlocked bootloader that others are having. Maybe it is the version of the recovery that is the issue? Which version is everyone trying to use? I am using the 3.xxxx version that is linked from the wiki. I have had other problems with the 5.xxx version and tend to stick with the older version for that reason anyways.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pentie:
Maybe it's true, the bug of CWM, my situation is with the Lastest of HTC EVO 3D,	5.0.2.0 from their official site.
[G2 and Desire Z General] knightslay2:
Hmm I don't know which one to flash to since my phone is supplied by Vodaphone Australia. Any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nipqer:
For anyone with custom rom boot errors, you need to fastboot flash the boot image.

I wrote a guide here for the whole root/flash rom process.

-Nipqer
[G2 and Desire Z General] spookievision:
I believe that one of the issues with using the 5.xxx version of CWM recovery is the need to erase the recovery partition before flashing it (at least for the G2/Desire Z). You can't erase partitions from fastboot on this hboot version, only flash from it. The 3.xxx version of CWM recovery does not seem to need this. If anyone is still willing to experiment with the HTC unlocked bootloader and flashing, this might be the way to go as it has been working fine for me so far on my T-Mobile G2.

The reason I am interested in this method of flashing, etc. is because I like the ability to re-lock the bootloader after I have everything set up for security reasons. This is not an option with the standard accepted method of root and flashing. (The only downside to this is if I have to unlock it again as that performs a factory reset.)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nipqer:
I thought the bootloader could not be relocked if you used the htcdev method.

With the xda method you can relock it, there are just no guides for it cause no one does it. Though it shouldn't be too hard to do

-Nipqer
[G2 and Desire Z General] spookievision:
To re-lock the bootloader after making modifications to your system, type the command "fastboot oem lock" while the phone is in fastboot mode again. This command locks the bootloader and commits the changes to the protected partitions. If you want to make more changes later, you "fastboot flash unlocktoken xxxxxx.bin" again which performs a wipe of all userdata but unlocks the bootloader again. (I don't have the actual filename for xxxxxx.bin in front of me but it is the unlock key HTC sends you to do the initial unlock.) I have done this several times experimenting with the phone to see what the unlocked bootloader lets you do.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nipqer:
That's good to know, I wonder if it will allow downgrade after locking...

-Nipqer
[G2 and Desire Z General] spookievision:
Sounds like an experiment to try later. You could always re-unlock it if not as I stated above if not.
[G2 and Desire Z General] YOUNGTWAN:
so how did u get the unlock token bc when i type it in i jus get a (bootloader) [ERR] command error!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karib4:
After rooting, I installed Rom Manager just to be able to keep track of my back up's. I don't use it for anything else. The first time I booted into CWR (after installing that app), recovery wouldn't let me select anything. Rom manager did ask me at some point to install something which is probably the problem. My question is, should I odin the original recovery again? Not sure because while in the recovery it did say I have version 4.0.0.4 which I believe is the most current...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karib4:
Ok, after unistalling the app, I went back into recovery again and now I am able to select options. It is letting my do a back up. There is still a "Rom manager hat", like on the app, showing up, is this a problem? I'm not sure if it fully unistalled due to this icon showing up still. I just don't remember seeing that before.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AceTrader:

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
That is by design. Widgets are in the App Drawer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
Holy nooob!

Just go into your app drawer and select the widgets tab. Look at the pic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MissyO:
I know how to do that. :D Isn't it possible to access the widgets directly from the homescreen by long-pressing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
As already answered, no you can't
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
When I saw the thread title I thought it was a joke.

This a change in ICS from previous versions of Android. However if you must have this feature I know the Nova launcher adds it in.

Sorry to post such silly question. Thanks for the information.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
Nothing is silly, how else do people learn. Glad you got sorted ;)

As mentioned before, use Nova Launcher. Supports everything stock launcher does and much more including long press add Widgets.
[HTC Radar] SCossio:
I have a very dumb question....Where can I find the guide to unlock/jailbreak the radar so I can install apps not in the market??

I did search and found this chevron thing but its about a year old, dont know if it applies to the RADAR.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
[HTC Radar] JonnieLasVegas:
There currently isn't any way to unlock the Radar or any 2nd gen HTC WP7. I'm anxiously waiting for this, would love to install the screen capture app on mine.
[HTC Radar] hah2110:
Isn't that what interop does?
[HTC Radar] SCossio:
uhm....whats interop??
[HTC Radar] JonnieLasVegas:
Don't know why my last comment didn't show, damn xda app!

But, interop unlocking gives you/an app access to certain drivers locked down by MS, usually reserved for OEM's or partners.

Currently their is no way to interop unlock any 2nd gen HTC devices like our Radar or Titans. For now us 2nd gen HTC owners are stuck with stock phones. Unless you have a developer account, student account, or purchase a chevron token.
[HTC Radar] hah2110:
So what does the Chevron token do? Will it work on the Radar?
[HTC Radar] JonnieLasVegas:
Well the Chevron Token unlocks the phone to sideload a set number of apps, 10 I think. It should work fine on the Radar. But they're currently "sold out". They will hopefully be able to sell more, it's only $10. It doesn't interop unlock the phone, but interop unlock usually isn't necessary unless you really want to change registry values or fully unlock your phone for some homebrew apps that require fully unlocked phones.
[HTC Radar] la_Tensor:
My girlfriend also waiting for Jailbreak because she wants to use Advance Config.

Is there any way to deploy an Registry Editor to the Radar?
[HTC Radar] MJCS:
No. All 2nd gen devices are locked down hard.
[HTC Radar] henreeg:
Can you tell me what you mean by Student account?

thanks!
[HTC Radar] strollaco:
i'm interested too.
[HTC Radar] agm611:
If you create a DreamSpark account through Microsoft, you can dev-unlock your phone for free. You just need a functioning .edu email address. Just Google "Microsoft DreamSpark" and you should see the website where you can create (and then verify) your account. I can't post the link because I'm a new member.
[HTC Radar] stevedawg85:
I found this thread and hoping this student account stuff is still valid. So I just created and verified my info. Now where would I even begin to unlock/jailbreak the Radar?

i hate microsoft so much.

i've found so much more power in linux, and android, and i just don't understand how microsoft is even in business....

i got the radar (for free, from the mschallange), and i think its designed for complete idiots...i am sooo disappointed
[HTC Radar] JonnieLasVegas:
Wow, so in your opinion anyone who uses it is an idiot. Such a blanket statement proves your the true idiot.
[HTC Radar] Catar:
...idiot....

Well, seems engouht intelligent to hate Microsoft. I 'm also waiting some way to work with htc radar (like send contacts without exchanges account....), or better, wait canonical distribution at the end of this year and hope we can use for erase from windows phone.

Having moved up/on from WM6.5 to Android I must say that CyanogenMod 7 is brill. I flashed both Corvus5 and GSf r4 both of which are good in their own right and tested each over a 2 week period. I'm running CM7 on both my Vega tab and Blade and I must say what a thrill. Fast, responsive and no crashes yet (touch wood). My 2 cents

I recently viewed a popular but brief youtube preview of bada 2.0 on, I believe, my Wave2. The thing had a lot of new apps but the demonstrator didn't get very far into any of them. I suspect if you are reading this you will have seen similar videos.

My concern is that some of these apps offer functionality that 3rd party devs are working on and that they will forfeit our efforts.

Apart from expressing an interest in all new bada 2.0 feature lists and native reading/browsing applications I am writing to ask if any one has information specifically about the new ebook app? It displayed the stock splash screen and had it's name neatly overlaid (ebook reader, or similar). I've googled but can find no trace of it.

Hi out there,

I really like the ROM´s (HD2) of TBD and used 2.6 for a while. Unfortunally the Hotspot will not work. It´s seems to me that they removed the "original" hotspot and implemented barnacle. My Motorola XOOM will not find any hotspot :mad: When I turned on the hotspot from the shortcut menue, my XOOM see the hotspot and try to connect but can´t get an IP ... I installed an ICS dev from SD-card and it worked without any problems. My XOOM worked with the hotspot of the Desire (stock) my wife owns. I can´t use an ICS, better to say I don´t want in the moment, because it´s really hard to sync all the data I need from my pc to my XOOM and to my phone. And I don´t want to use clouds in the moment ...

Dear all the hard working developers out there ... please please please think while you are developing things about the user(s). I worked in the software industrie for many years and I know that a lot of projects are running without an idea what the end user will think about that.

I try to find a ROM that will fit my needs, sync with Outlook/Exchange, working as a hotspot for my XOOM, running fast and stable, and last not least looks quite good ...
