[Nook Color General] votinh:
You guys keep surprising me every day, for real.

From running CM7, left it in the car where temp. was around 7 degrees, suddenly it returns to stock, and now running a custom ROM, just do a 8-time reboots and it's back to stock? Without reflashing stock ROM first? How that possible?
[Nook Color General] patruns:
I had to return mine for the same reason and simply held the card in with my finger while wiping and restoring. Was somewhat painful and tiring but it worked. Just another reason for people not to frequently swap cards on this device.
[Nook Color General] mateorod:
Oh man, i tried that. I tell you what, I spent forever trying that method. For real, it made me want to smash the thing and never look back. I have some big hands, and the card kept slipping on me halfway through. It took me a while to find this method and i couldn't believe this wasn't option one instead of somewhat unknown.

That person who literally froze their nook back to stock- now that was just wild.
[Nook Color General] MISRy:
As far as I'm concerned that *is* the stock ROM. Literally, the Read Only Memory that it comes out of the factory with. Nothing short of an EMP can remove it. Mine falls back to version 1.0.0 after an 8+1.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
Until that day, I am always under the impression of flashing custom ROM means OVERWRITES the stock ROM, no? If what's you said is true, then flashing custom ROM was just placing it ON TOP of the stock one.
[Nook Color General] mateorod:
Yeah, you literally can't lose the factory ROM. Its a beautiful thing. Having the sdcard as the primary boot makes the nook an ideal hacking tablet. I have torn through and messed with just about every system file and database I could think of, because it was all risk free.

I know that the tech moves fast, and people have their new darlings, the luster wears off and all that, but the nook is probably my favorite gadget I've ever bought. Unkillable.
[Nook Color General] votinh:
LOL :D, after using NC for almost a year, I still find something to love the NC even more :)

It is awesome.
[Nook Color General] squarehdca:
still trying

Am I doing this wrong?

Do I try the three finger wipe when the cyanogen(mod) symbol comes up or when the cyanogen(mod) 7 animated logo starts? All I wanted is access to Android apps( being from Canada).

Tried more than 8 times at the first symbol, but it comes up but the text ....Booting into recovery... Am I too quick on the trigger? Please excuse the old fart with big fingers. Thanks for any replies.
[Nook Color General] Harrybub:
Start with the Nook completely powered off.

Press and hold the Pwr. button, the Vol. + button, and the n button until you see the screen flash.

Release all buttons for 1 sec then press and hold only the Pwr. button until the Nook powers down. (Backlight off) This works best in dim lighting.

Do it again.

Do it 8 times in a row and the next time it will install the image stored internally and you will be back to what it came out of the box with.

If you goof up the timing and it starts to boot up you will have to power it down again and start over at count one.

I have done this several timems on 2 different Nooks and it always works.

Oh and stop with the old fart stuff. I'm 60. :D
[Nook Color General] kontam:
This was extremely helpful when for some reason it wasn't letting me restore the device in the first place. I really should've known about this but I appreciate it greatly and it is pretty great that it works so easily.
[Nook Color General] brsingr:
So what your saying is that I can restore my NC back to stock even if I've installed CM7 directly to the emmc, using the 3 fingered "salute" boot? I think I did something like this months ago, but my NC has been on the full android for so long now, I want to return it to B&N stock seeing as I have an android phone now...and maybe start over again.
[Nook Color General] Harrybub:
I've never tried it in that exact situation but I think the answer is yes...
[Nook Color General] Lakland:
i tried this and after the 3rd attempt, the Rom manager menu appears and now i am on a rom menu loop, I hit reboot, the cyanogen logo appears and then the ROM manager menu!

not good!

I boot using sd card that was formatted with CM7.2 and works fine.

help please!

thanks!
[Nook Color General] leapinlar:
I think you mean the Clockworkmod menu, not ROM Manager. If you are in a recovery bootloop, which it sounds like you are, go to my tips thread linked in my signature and look at item A8. Follow what it says and it may get out of it.

[HTC ChaCha] mezolezo:
Dear ALL

Today I did Manage to re-lock the Chacha bootloader to win the waranty back here is what I did

1- My ChaCha is an Arabic version bought it from egypt it was coming with ROM (( RUU_Chacha_HTC_ARA_1.22.415.2_Radio_47.14.35.3030H_7.47.35.17_release_198595_signed.exe )) you can find it somewhere in ChaCha thread .

2- I did extract the above rom and i toke the file called rom.zip then i did extract it

3- i did flash boot.img , radio.img , recovery.img and system.img using fastboot.exe

CMD

fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img

then

fastboot.exe flash radio radio.img

then

fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img

then

fastboot.exe flash system system.img

then

Factory Rest

then

Restart

4- The ROM 1.22.415.2 installed on my Chacha and working super . I went to Settings > About Phone > Software Updates > Check now . the system asked me to download the new update then I did

5- For sure before i install the update I looked for the OTA update on my phone and i managed to find it on my SD under folder called download (( OTA_Chacha_HTC_ARA_1.57.415.3-1.22.415.2_release_228158ps5fo8iej85c5rzr.zip )) Here is a link of the OTA update

http://ifile.it/y5jwsx2/OTA_Chacha_HTC_ARA_1.57.415.3-1.22.415.2_release_228158ps5fo8iej85c5rzr.zip

6- I asked the Updater to install the OTA ROM

7- The rom installed i did uncheck fastboot from Settings > Power > Fastboot

8- I checked the Bootloader i found it as before i start to unlock it via HTCdev unlocker with the stock bootloader 1.07.0000 S-ON RL

Cheersssssssssssssssssssssss yahoooooooooooooooooooooo My waranty is back :D:D:D:D:D:D
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
I haven't checked on the Chacha, but on Motorola's there's a flash in fastboot that can tell you if warranty is void because of unlocking. Even relocking won't reset the flag.
[HTC ChaCha] mezolezo:
adlx.xda lets look for it but i don`t think that HTC is that smart anyways if so no problem at less that it downgraded the Hboot from 1.10.0000 to 1.07.0000 :) and lock it :)
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
the variable I know from Motorola is: iswarrantyvoid

fastboot getvar iswarrantyvoid

Idk if it's valid for HTC though. Not tried yet.
[HTC ChaCha] mezolezo:

I did type

[HTC ChaCha] qzfive:
I wouldn't count on this actually working tbh... I downgraded my bootloader to 1.04.0000, updated to 1.07.0000, then 1.10.0000 (the one from HTCDev) just to see what would happen, and upon applying 1.10.0000, it still showed as *** UNLOCKED ***. Doing a fastboot oem lock won't work either, your bootloader will say *** RELOCKED ***.

In short: the unlock flag is stored in a secret partition and is still visible no matter what bootloader is running :(
[HTC ChaCha] mezolezo:
Dear qzfive..

I think you did S-Off to your device using XTC clip ? OR you did the downgrade using gold card ? Right
[HTC ChaCha] qzfive:
I S-OFF'd via the Clip a good month before HTC-Dev unlock, however that's not relevant in this situation. S-OFF and the HTC-Dev unlock definitely appear to be two seperate flags, since some people haven't used the Clip and have an HTC-Dev unlocked bootloader are S-ON.

I think that the HTC-Dev unlock/relock flag is on the same partition as the @secuflag, which controls S-ON and S-OFF. HTC would know how to read this partition and read the flags to determine if your warranty is void or not. Also, remember when you started the HTC-Dev unlock, and you had to get a unique ID key from your device? Chances are they also save that key onto their systems as one that's had its bootloader unlocked.

One additional note: doing radio flashes won't reset the flags either, as when I applied the different HBOOTS, radios were flashed along with them as part of an RUU or OTA.

Either way, after we've used the HTC-Dev unlock, we can say goodbye to our warranties :(
[HTC ChaCha] mezolezo:
Dear I agree with you but if there is no secueflag says its locked or unlocked only and about the saving the code in thier system easy i can complain about maybe some hacker did stolen my SN. or somthing and he did register with it in thier system

any ways Warranty on or off i dont care because HTC service they are useless at the end

I am going to search how to read the SecureFlag from the partattion

Thank you any ways

Hi Guys.

I'm rooted kindle fire user :)

You should know general market installation process doesn't allow full access of all applications in the android market.

I recently tried Modaco Rom.

They say some tweaks made kindle fire to masquerade Galaxy tab in the market!!

and actually it does! (amazing!).

I know Modaco Rom is very nice.

But I want to know which actions made that..

I tried build.prop, pushed some system application that found in modaco rom.

Can anyone help me, plz???

Thank you~!! :)

If TMOUS simply get latest correct device ROM from HTC:

http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobileUS/Filedownload.aspx?pid=leo

using ROMs found on XDA or filehosts could end up with a bricked TMOUS device unless you know what you are doing or take time to research correctly.

If flash fails with ROM code error that means CID is wrong for device, IE: ROM you are flashing is not correct original ROM for your devices region.

HSPL bypasses CID lock but on TMOUS HD2 a HSPL & stupid user ends up with a .51 radio & bricked device :-P

The rule: read first flash second & if TMOUS get your rom direct from link above using IMEI ...

I had a somewhat similar problem, if you want to revert to stock, download the stock firmware here, then relock your bootloader with the command "fastboot oem lock", and then reinstall the stock firmware with hboot.

Hey guys,

Ok, quick question. I noticed the other day while waiting for my java class to "run" (haha see what I did there) and the guy across from me has what I think was a cry-phone. I heard his texts come in a few times and each time he had a different ringtone. (at least it seemed so.) It cycled through like 3 or 4 different ones before restarting the loop.

**Note I do NOT mean that the ringtone kept replaying, instead I mean it ran as.

ringtone A. (stop)..... (new text) Ringtone B. (stop).... (new text) ringtone C. (stop).... (new text) ringtone A. etc.

Is there a way to do this for the Epic?

Ex. One ringtone = "Hey!" (Navi) Second = "Listen!" (Navi again)

Hi all,

I recently broke my dell streak, and looking for a new phone now...

I can't make my mind betwenn optimus 2x, atrix 4g and nexus s, thought will get your input on this.

I am ok with rooting and loading custom rom... may be not changing the screen of the mobile that's how I broke the streak :D

I am hoping all three phones I am looking at will have decent performance. I am looknig for a mobile with a decent video recording capablity and decent battery life. I read some of the threads here and looks like some of the members are unhappy about their camera.

What you think about LG optimus 2x camera? do u think its better than Atrix 4g ones? I guess Nexus is totally out of picture...

What would be your choice?

Cheers
[LG Optimus 2x] CescMusta:
The camera is great :)
[LG Optimus 2x] reverendhtc:
The camera is great if you are running a ROM based on the stock LG software. It's not that great when running on CM7 due to loss of frames when recording video in low light.
[LG Optimus 2x] Medizinmann:
Hello!

Camera is ok if you use it in good light conditions and in short distance with the flash. It isn't very good when used in dimmed/low light or twilight.

BTW: CM7 camera is ok now. As now almost everything is working well on Cyanogenmod 7 with custom kernel (even all sensors) - but only the FM radio - that is working much better with stock based custom roms.

I can't say much in comparison to the cameras of the Atrix or the Nexus S.

The camera of the Samsung Galaxy S2 is definitely much better though.

But there are test about that (concerning camera quality) available on the internet - as a German yoke says ask the nice Indian (internet with Saxon dialect tongue = "Inder nett" ;):))

The Atrix by the way sounds very good on paper (more RAM, faster CPU) and should be a really decent phone too - but it is a little bigger - IMHO the LG O2x has the right size - didn't want a bigger phone with more than 4".:)
[LG Optimus 2x] reverendhtc:
True the camera is better than it was before (brightness has improved). I still miss the full frame recording of the stock rom.

[HTC Rezound] qudwis:
