dsixda's kitchen is nice. Only I had trouble when trying to flash it.

It flashed alright, only it didn't have the additions to it.

I'm sure someone may be able to help me though.

im pactrpo on whirlpool.

i don't know.

anyway was the tio (he gave me a complaint number) meant to give me a contact number for telstrap? the way he said it, he would refer it to the ones who deal with the complaints in telstra.

so does that mean they contact telstra on my behalf then telstra have 10 business days to resolve?. think i might ring up and check.

Hey guys,

Just wondering is anyone has managed to get ICS (att versions) up and working on any Australian Velocity? im tempted to have a play, but am in the middle of some rather important work too, and cant be without my phone.

Any successful attempts yet?

Vivid Rom on Velocity

Hi there.

I am a noob and from spending all day playing around the website trying this and trying that.

I have come to the conclusion that the Velocity isnt as bad as it may seem to people trying to ROOT or re flash.

This again has probably been said before but i couldnt see it..

Dark Raider for the VIVID works great on my Telstra Velocity yes there is one little thing in settings saying AT&T update but it works and runs smooth.

I work for Telstra and i hate the Firmware and how slow it all runs.

As i was installing Raider after being told its only for AT&T i could see it working with no issue. So the purpose of this noob talk is that most vivid or different carrier Roms seem to work fine on Aussie Telstra Phones A.K.A Velocity.

As a Telstra employee the comment on firmware is nothing but my own opinion and does not reflect my opinion on the company.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] CasualStarlord:
yup, you just have to be careful with the hboot, the hboot is different for each device, but once that is flashed any rom from any carrier will work with any of the other devices.

Velocity 4G smokes

I just switched to Telstra, (after much soul searching) but 3hrs west of Mackay there is little choice! :/ To compensate this i rewarded my self with a Velocity 4G and to say impressed is an understatement. Outback i get 12Mbs in the middle of nowhere and in Brisbane 12-40Mbs. Even tho the 4G area is smallish the dual channel HSPA makes up for it. My home DSL2+ is only 4Mbs in a suburb of Brisbane.

I will however root this handset like i did to the Desire HD a few months ago, to rid of the bloat ware,, is there a decent ROM available yet? and is it as easy as the Desire HD to do?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rotorsk8r:
The night I got my velocity I went to a broncos game and got 40+ mbps! I was that amazed that I told everyone around me (tech nerd) but no one else had a clue. If your looking for a fast,solid stock looking rom with a great community try wildchilds rom. You can only get it from his site but it has step by step youtube vids to help you out.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] CasualStarlord:
I found this rom really good, I don't like the at&t based roms, this one is based on the Telstra rom (has correct icons for 2G/3G/Hsdpa/LTE and also a proper working LTE toggle for batter saving) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1613333
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] g33mt4z:
I'd have to second that, alas, my recovery is not working (I do know why, however) and I have no computer to re-flash it, so I can't 'really' say it works as I can't flash it, but I do have a rooted version of Telstra's ICS and the only drama I have is that it's not deodexd (slow boot). Going off from what I have read, I can't wait to flash this ^-^
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
If you are rooted and sans computer...

The kernel flash GUI mentioned in the superguide allows you to flash kernels from the phone if you are s-on... And it also allows you to reflash your recovery partition...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] g33mt4z:
Thankyou so much, I keep forgetting to check back on the superguide, I'll give it a whirl right now ;)

EDIT:

Alright, tried mixing it up a little... I've got the holiday Rom flashed and working, but I've lost root... Will try re-flashing, I've got the kozmikkernal beta 6 (could be why I've got no root) and cwm v5.5.0.4 (can't see why that would have anything to do with it).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] CasualStarlord:
did you clear your /data before you flashed the holiday rom?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] g33mt4z:
Yep, cleared everything, tried four times with different kernals, I'm back to the other rooted ICS Rom that's odexed, it is rooted so no major drama ;-) still can't figure out why it wouldn't let me keep root, su just couldn't find root and titanium wouldn't work... Mabey I should just wait til I get back to my computer and s-off.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] CasualStarlord:
I still have S-on and I have not experienced any issues with missing root.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] g33mt4z:
Ok, well I seem to have fixed it, but I flashed without wiping anything, on the first boot it had like 248 apps to optimise, then every boot thereafter, super fast!!! This is not at all a recommendation as I've heard nothing but bad things from not wiping before flashing, this is an awesome exception.... Thanks for your help guys :-)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Leigh Kennedy:
Worth checking out.

This one will be worth checking out. Still building it now.

It will be the next version of my Stock Telstra ROM (which is also the ROM that mohamed_moscow may have based his on).

The ROM will now be called Velocity²
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] g33mt4z:
Awesome!!!! It's a very stable rom base, can't wait to see it :) Just wondering, what is a more refined keyboard? Both of the keyboards I've used from the rooted Telstra ICS roms were pretty slick for me, can't see how they could be improved, still curious though :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Leigh Kennedy:
My wording has gotten the better of me, it seems.

I'll be putting in the Sense 4.0 version of it in as I think it looks better.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mickb83:
Hi all,

I'm trying to track down the ruu for the gingerbread Rom that was shipped with the HTC Velocity 4G on Telstra originally.

Since updating to ICS my data reception had been ****e and is like to go back to having a phone that works properly as it was intended.

Does anyone know where I could download the 2.3.6 Rom?

I thought I'd found it on file factory, downloaded it went to run it, it ran for a while and looked like it was working then came up with an error, something to do with the hboot I believe.

Am I doing something wrong? I'd like to keep the phone un-rooted if possible, I'd just like the phone to work like it did straight out of the box when I first got it.

Cheers,

Mick

Telstra HTC Velocity 4G Rocks

I know it's a bit late for the OP but I wouldn't mind sharing my opinion anyway.

I migrated from a rooted HTC HD2 with a custom rom and agonised for ages between the HTC Velocity 4G and the Samsung Galaxy S2 4G.

I was able to test these units side by side at a Telstra shop in Adelaide recently to help me decide, the first thing I noted was the speed of the HTC Velocity compared to the SGS2.

Both phones were loaded with the speedtest.net app and were set to the same server, the HTC Velocity consistently had ping times to the server of 91ms where the best time for the SGS2 were 281ms. Download speeds for the Velocity were better than 27Mbps where the SGS2 couldn't get over 17Mbps, now that is a big difference!

The screen colours on the SGS2 were too saturated and dark and didn't seem real.

All in all the HTC Velocity 4G is awesome in my book, my wife has an SGS2 and I still hate the way it does some stuff and just doesn't seem as user friendly or as configurable as the HTC Velocity.

Hope this helps someone.

Cheers:)

My phone is

Unlocked

S-ON

rooted

I've flashed Alquez's Unofficial ClockworkMod and installed CWM. ROM Manager says Current Recovery ClockWorkMod 2.5.0.7

Latest Recovery ClockWorkMod 2.5.0.7

but when I try to backup current ROM, the phone reboots and I get a triangle with an ! in it and the phone freezes. CWM has root permissions.

Any clues please?
[HTC Wildfire S] Schnello:
My opinion... dont use the Manger. So many people in the past show me that a App is only a App.

For example: Some users perform a backup with the manager but the sdcard was full...

The result: No Backup and a crying user.

If you perform the backup manually ... you see the sdcard is full.

Some job´s should be only done by a human ;)

But regarding your problem: Can you boot into the recovery from the bootloader?
[HTC Wildfire S] Nicknoxx:
Yes, I can, and I can perform a backup from there, perhaps you're right I should avoid the app. Thanks
[HTC Wildfire S] steviewevie:
The triangle with a ! is the stock recovery. I think you need another key combination to progress into the stock recovery itself.

But the main point is, your flash of CWM recovery didn't work.

[HTC Wildfire S] Nicknoxx:
Interesting, It seems to be there as I can get to it from a cold start but not from within the app. Maybe I'll re-flash and see if that works. Thanks

I hope somebody can help me with this little anomaly.

Been trying to downgrade htc panache with gingerbread 2.3.3.

I was able to successfully execute the cmds listed on the guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178912; however, when i try to downgrade the misc_version, I get the following error:

> adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp/misc_version

> adb push flashgc /data/local/tmp/flashgc

> adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/*

> adb shell

> cd /data/local/tmp

# ./misc_version -s 1.00.000.0

./misc_version -s 1.00.000.0

./misc_version -s 1.00.000.0: PERMISSION DENIED

According to the guide I should have seen something like this (--set_version set. VERSION will be changed to: 1.00.000.0

Patching and backing up partition 17...)

I was also not sure as to when the cmd "adb push PD15IMG.zip /sdcard/PD15IMG.zip" be executed, before or after downgrading? And when doing this should I have my regular SD card or gold card inserted in the phone?

I wasn't able to find the solution to the problem. Hope you can be of help
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SprigganMaster:
The correct tutorial to root the Panache is here :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16858971&postcount=98

Be sure your sdcard is not mounted and usb debugging is enable.

The misc command must be execute with your regular sdcard.

The PD15IMG. zip must be pushed on your goldcard and is only used in the next step (dowgrading to froyo)

I gave it a try...I followed the guide precisely. Everything goes smoothly until I reach the "Change Version" section. When i try to downgrade the misc version i keep getting PERMISSION DENIED.

I have been at this days, but with no luck.

Check your bootloader version if its 86.000 then u can use gingerbreak to root
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mansisingh:
You are doing something wrong in step 6 of the temp root guide.... Step 6 is successful if your device is kicked out of adb shell...... If you have the 86.0000 bootloader just install gingerbreak and root your phone no nees to follow all these steps
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryjatt:
GingerBreak worked great on my Panache. My bootloader was 86.0000
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allendon:
Ok, I managed to get through. Step 6 was successful. It was able to find an exploit at the end, then it kicks the device out of adb shell.

I skipped the temp rooting backup guide as i have nothing to backup.

Next I pushed the PD15IMG.zip file in to the sd card and rebooted. It scanned it but nothing happened. The guide said it was expected so I rebooted inserted the gold card and tried again. Nothing happened. It scanned the .zip file and remained at the bootloader screen. No t-mobile splash or anything like the guide says. This is what I see:

GLACIER PVT SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.89.0005

MICROP-0429

RADIO-26.09.04.26_M

eMMc-boot

What am I doing wrong? Could it be the .zip file is defective? I couldn't access the link for that file on the guide. megaupload is blocked, so i had to download it from elsewhere. It is 10.2 MB and has one radio.img file and another android-info .txt file.

Please help
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Please don't spread misinformation. Gingerbreak only works if you are already S-OFF. It is not going to work on the Panache which comes with the 0.89 HBOOT. If your Panache mysteriously came with 0.86 then it's an anomaly and you got lucky.

Also from my experience, you can do everything using one gold card - you don't need a separate non-gold SD to make any particular things happen.

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------

The 10 MB files are just radio files. That's not what you need.

For the correct downgrade file, the MD5 checksum is 49D07F0EE7DE1765A6A84CB12FA53110. There is another copy available at the following links:

Yay! Once you have Radio S-OFF your bootloader version doesn't really matter anymore, because no matter what you flash you're still S-OFF.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicgraner:
Ehhh...Not really. Your bootloader is really important because you will either stay with the .86 one or your root method will flash the engineering H-boot which is .85.2007, The engineering H-boot is essential for things like reviving bricks (brick is not when your eMMC fails) and flashing things like recovery.img's and custom splash screens.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
Even without ENG HBOOT, once you have Radio S-OFF, any version bootloader will accept an unsigned PD15IMG.zip. You can recover from bricks, flash recovery and splash screens from there too.

Hi, I'd like to ask two questions about our Desire Zs.

Firstly, I'd like to know if its possible to boot any kind of Linux from our Desire Zs. From what I know, our bootloader is designed to booting any kind of Linux right?

Secondly, I would also like to know if its possible to compile a pure AOSP build, and run it on our DZ. Again, from what I know, the DZ can run Android, through startup scripts, so it should be able to run a pure AOSP build right?

Anybody able to correct my poor understanding of the DZ, and Android?

There should be guides if you search for running debian on the g2/dz. And yes you can run AOSP, so long as it's built for the dz/g2. Cyanogenmod is AOSP based, so is the stock g2 rom I think.

Actually what I meant, was whether I could load in any generic android source through CWM, and have it working. But thanks though for your answer.

I see. Thanks for your answer. Though I had the impression that AOSP was a generic android source, suitable for any phone just by downloading a copy, and loading it in through CWM.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fredfb:
Not really suitable for any phone. If that was the case, we would have 100% working ICS roms by now, or even in the week of release.

From the little i understand, Android needs drivers for each component just like windows does, and those drivers are not in the AOSP
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
AOSP typically only contains drivers for the Nexus dev phone for each particular release, I think. Though ICS is an exception because soon after initial release they put in drivers for the Nexus S as well as Galaxy Nexus, and the Motorola Xoom tablet too.

As has been said, you need to take AOSP then add hardware-specific drivers.

Sent from my Desire Z running CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xudsa II USERT:
I see.. I always had the impression that the drivers were in the Kernel, so, the phone has to interface through drivers in the /system then through the kernel?

So, if this applies to other distros, say Angstrom Linux, i need to port each driver, then it should work when i install it with CWM right? Correct me if i'm wrong, but our bootloaders are designed to boot any linux right?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] formatti:
I had the same problem, but i did fix it by resetting router to factory settings

and changing the wifi channel to non-overlapping channel 11 (also channels 1 and 6 are non-overlapping channels). NB! reboot is not the same as resetting router to factory settings.

After that i removed my wifi spot from SGS by long press and forget in wifi settings. Then SGS shut down and reboot to router. When router was fully up again i did turn SGS on let it found my wifi again. Everything was perfect after that. I did not upgrade the routers firmware, but in certain cases, if firmware is really old, it might be necessary to do.

Some say, that removing file /data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-eth0.lease.list will help, so you can try that too
