[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
I looked at the file you linked to and that's not exactly a FTF file fit for Flashtool.

Use this one (2.1.1.C.0.0) instead.

Download and extract (7-Zip)! You should get a file with a FTF extension.

EDIT: Do NOT unpack the resulting FTF ... it needs to stay as a single FTF file!

That most likely happened because the file you used wasn't really prepared as a Flashtool FTF bundle.

Repeat the procedure with the file from above and it should work.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsShuvo:
thanks for reply. i will give it a try.

my Flashtool vesion is o.2.9. is it okay?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsShuvo:
Solved!

Solved! Succesfully Flashed to Stock rom and Unlocked Bootloader! Its great thing for me:) i was afraid lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thurstroubadours:
So recently I applied the stock rooted 4.0.4 rom to my CDMA Nexus. After this, it would have this strange problem where occasionally the screen would just not respond to any touch. I would battery pull many times over before it would start working again. Tonight I finally got fed up and tried to apply the factory image (4.0.2) to it through Wug's root toolkit v1.3. When it completed the phone went into a serious bootloop, not getting past the google logo. What happened? Did I just make a very expensive paperweight?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nmprodan:
Restore everything to an earlier time including the bootloader, recovery, radios, and rom through adb. You can also use a toolkit like the one found below to restore your phone to stock then redo everything:

Yeah, I've tried that a few times and it's still stuck on the Google image and won't move forward. Just restarts and restarts.

Another evidence that 1 click methods leads to ppl doing stuff without any understanding
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thurstroubadours:
Thanks for your help, sir. I know I'm not the most knowledgeable but you don't have to rub it in. I'm already down a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
There really

are

tons of threads here telling you exactly what to do in a case like yours - you just have to use the search and take the time to read through them.

And no, it's not bricked as long as you can get into the recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rem3Dy:
While I understand your anger, he does also make a valid point. 2 reasons why. If you didn't use a one click method maybe your phone would be working fine. 2nd by doing it the hard way hopefully you learned something and when you have a problem you know how or at least understand what is involved with fixing it.

Hope you get it fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s2d4:
exactly, my intention was not to make you feel bad.

I was hoping this example would make ppl learn the proper way.

As if you did, you wouldnt be in this predicament.

You would also know that you haven't bricked your device, not freak out over it and just fix it.

Cold hard facts are generally blunt and I understand your frustration, I also appreciate that you didnt start a flame war.

Hope you've sorted it out and and learned something in the process.

Good luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thurstroubadours:
Ok. I did manage to fix it by learning how to manually flash the stock image. Perhaps I did need the hard line!

Install Instructions

Must have Root and Clockwork Recovery installed on phone (Best if its on GB Bootloader Rooted)

From ClockWork Recovery:

1) wipe cache & data/factory resest, wipe /system...
2) Flash Latest CNA ROM
3) reboot phone (don’t flash another kernel before this first boot)
4) Then you can go back into recovery and flash a new kernel*cough cough* [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459576"]GLITCH[/URL]

If you are coming from AOSP Team ICSSGS, just wipe and flash over.

**You dont have to flash another kernel as THS v16 kernel is included in ROM, but you are free to flash the latest Glitch Beta(recommended).**

[Captivate Android Development] nygfan760:
What do you mean by don't reboot in Step 2. Wouldn't you just wipe, flash, reboot?

EDIT: Also, this rom looks awesome and thanks to all the dev who worked on porting this, and building this in the future.

EDIT 2: Flashing now, will report back in the morning.
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
Links are LIVE!!!
[Captivate Android Development] nygfan760:
EDIT: So the only way it worked was to flash ICSSGS and then this rom, but it works!
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
I edited the OP so you didn't have to DL a whole ROM... all you gotta do is flash the I9000 version of glitch kernel, reboot recovery and flash from there!

And I would like to know how it feels for you? Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] popfan:
I tried this ROM on my wife's Nexus S and looked good there. I hope it will work out over here also.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
gonna be flashing as soon as the d/l finishes over ICSSGS.

30 mins left to download. not complaining, just anxious ;] cant wait to have ics with a decent lockscreen. thanks for the work b-eock, will report
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
See I am not all bad ;) , just frustrated a lot of the time because of noobiness. My uncle is about to die of throat cancer and kidney failure so it maybe a while if there is an I9000 update for me to do the file changes and stuff...
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
only issue i have so far is the signal strength is innacurate. it shows 0dbm even tho it has full bars, which btw, i never have full bars. everything else is pretty neat.

best of luck with your uncle bro ;///
[Captivate Android Development] nygfan760:
Same thing here, which is a known bug so I can live with it. Yeah b-eock, this rom is just as smooth as any ICS I have used combined with Glitch. I love the extra customizations built into the settings. Thanks for the port.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
customizeable lockscreen and status bar = ownership. this is so cool!

This ROM is by far the best ICS rom.
[Captivate Android Development] ralphreyes:
This is one awesome ROM!!! I love the lockscreen options. The battery options. Just everything! Thanks for this!! Coming over from CM9 which I used from build 11-15.

Bad news.... :'(( Thank you guys for all your prayers, he went peacefully at least. I am still gonna kelp the thread updated, and I am going to do a mod for it. But it will be later. Again. Thanks guys
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Bless your heart for giving us this in hard times. I'll be preying for u bro. Hang in there. We don't need an update, this **** kills.

Rate this thread 5 stars guys. This is the hidden secret right now. Not getting much attention.

On par for 6 hours screen time streaming music over wifi. Where's glitch recovery???
[Captivate Android Development] b-eock:
Glitch kernel isn't included in the ROM yet, will do that soon. For now just flash the kernel!
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Unsure of why i get the glitch boot screen....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Looking at buying a slide tomorrow. Is there anything I need to be alarmed of? Do these have screen issues, or any of the like? Just don't want to buy a defective device. Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
HTC = Great quality

No real problems it's such a solid phone, so much so that developer "Blue61X" has bought two of these phones.

a few people said they had dust under there screen but i doubt you need worry, enjoy your slide, its got some real great things going for it all of a sudden the development section here has gone from ~ none to a lot of awesome ROMs. :D:D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
YES THERE IS ONE THING

Open up a few different boxes and feel the keyboards. We don't have the best keyboard on a phone, they are built strong and built to last, but make sure your specific phone has a keyboard you are content with. My friend has a mt4gs and his keyboard feels better than mine.

Also I just noticed u said ur getting a mytouch 4g, don't get the mytouch 4g, get the mytouch 4g slide =)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
And. Get the anker 1900 mah 2 battery set that comes with the wall charger off of amazon.

This way u can keep one charging and one being used.

The stock battery gets hot, wears out fast, and the heat is bad for your phone in general.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] leoilios:
Are the new mt4gs phones on the latest ota? It might make it a pain in the as$ to root
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] d3athb4dishonor:
Best HTC phone I've owned thus far. Very durable, I remembefr dropping my G2 and ever since I had an issue with the phone turning off on its own... This phone is a beast.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
Great phone, keyboard, front camera, good back camera, big screen, good processor. Overall its a good phone, only complaint is the genius button. I wish it was just regular search but you can change that if you're rooted.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Thanks guys! I've had good and bad luck with HTC in the past but this phone just looks amazing all around. I am buying this phone pre owned also. If I don't feel it's right, then I definitely won't move on it but I am excited to see what it has in store! Will update after I check it out.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
The only real issue is battery life. If you can afford it, buy a Mugen; otherwise, get the Anker two-pack.

Delivered via candygram for Mr. Mongo.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Got one!!

Gotta say overall I love it. Got it brand new, about a month old, for $160.

Here's why. The screen has the oh so lovely dust particles formed under the screen coming from the bottom left and shooting to the middle of the screen.

I thought HTC learned by now?! Either way, I'm happy and in my eyes i stole it from the guy.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
You'll love it - glad to hear that you got one of these awesome toys to play with!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
you may be able to get the dust removed under warranty. All 4G Slides still have factory warranty from HTC.

Just check to make sure there's no water damage and that one of the screws on the back is covered by a VOID sticker.

Send it in!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Even if I'm not the original owner?

The sticker is still white and there is still infact a VOID sticker on one of the screws!

I was thinking of doing so but what's the chance of the same thing happening in the future?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Doesn't matter if you're not the original owner. Factory warranty starts from date the phone was manufactured :)

And if it happens again, at least you'll have a clean phone for the time being
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Very cool! I'm definitely going to look into that for sure. Thanks!!

How long is that process normally?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
I know this because I just sent my phone in. Took 5 days to ship out. It's going to Texas. They turned it around on the same day. I was amazed. But they do tell you repairs can take anywhere from 6-10 days not including shipping. I'm sure they just say that to stay safe.

You have to pay for shipping though. They will not provide a label.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Awesome. I've never done warranty before so I'm all new to that. I imagine I just ring them up and go from there?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I am not the original owner of the one I sent in.

Neither of mine have the dust issue - mainly because I keep them in cases.

I attached some pictures below - they are pocket sized cases, fit with the trident case around the phone, and have pockets for accessories and batteries.

The zipper on the cases keeps the dust out, and the outer nylon shell makes it slide in and out of my pocket easily.

Notifications are not muffled by the extra layers of fabric, the sounds pierce it quite well and is no different then being in your pocket, vibration works full as well.

Just a thought - but for something this expensive and tiny, I try to take as good care of it as possible.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Yes, just call them up.

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------

Wow, you really like to care of your hardware... I can't deal with cases. They add bulk to the phone. I never drop or abuse my phones anyway.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Write down the serial number and imei number before you call, but basically yea, that's it.

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 PM ----------

Heh, well, I want to carry my recovery microsd card, which has a factory restore image on it and other recovery utilities...my usb thumb drive with all of my data, recovery tools and android SDK as well as portable programs on it...then there's the retractable USB cable and cigarette lighter adapter for a car...

The only thing I can't fit in the primary case (black/grey) is an ac adapter, but the rest fits and it's nice and slim.

The other case (red/grey/black kodak) has the second device, video cable, ac adapter and the factory usb cable. It's a bit bulkier, and not my daily travel - but still fits in an upper pants pocket without trouble.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
That's hardcore bro. Props
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
On the phone with HTC now. Let's see how this goes!

In your guys experience, did they send you back your phone, a new one, or a refurbished? Just curious.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Almost always they will do whatever they can to fix your unit. If they have to send you a replacement(very rare), it will most likely be refurbished, unless the phone is so new that only new units are available.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Awesome. I just hung up with them and from my understanding I still have warranty till October of this year which is sweet. They sent me all the info I need to get it shipped so will most likely send that out Monday.

Thanks again everyone! I'm gonna miss it but better to take advantage of the warranty.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
I got back exactly the same device - same numbers, and same screen protector I had on it (privacy screen protector - not exactly standard kind)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Just got my MyTouch 4G Slide back from HTC repair.

First thing I did was power it on and check the hboot. Still 1.44.0007 (happy dance :D)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] quickbird144:
Very cool! I actually ended up giving up the slide and went with a white galaxy s2. It was a good deal so no hard feelings. Glad you got your device back! Why did you send it in if you dont mind me asking?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Device wouldn't power on. Don't know what happened to it...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] junksecret:
I Just installed 902 yesterday from rooted 901 and the 1st thing I did was make a "nandroid" back-up. Tonight I dropped my phone and shattered the screen. I had the loss/theft/damage insurance and they are sending me a replacement phone I assume it will come with 5.5.893.

Should I be able to root it and install CWR, and then just restore my nandroid and end up at 902 rooted?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SonicJoe:
You'll need to root, forever root, and apply the 902 update first. Than install CWR and restore your nandroid. As far as I know, nandroid doesn't handle kernel/radio, so you won't truly be on 902 if you skip updating to it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] junksecret:
Thanks Joe, now that I think about it, I'm sure you're correct.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Gallaphanx:
I've been wanting a dock/stand for some time now, and don't like the docks on deal extreme and im finding it hard to find the first party dock from when the phone first came out. So I decided to make my own stand, one that would still allow me to plug in/charge the phone.

It's really simple and is made from a shisha tin (hookah tobacco tin) and 1 paper clip. The tin's lid still lifts off as well, so I can store my second battery, sd cards, cable, etc in the tin. Sits at a nice angle, is great for making calls over speaker phone since the phone is elevated, works great for remote apps like the XBMC app, and makes for an awesome alarm clock.

It most likely works with most phones (depending on where your ac plug is), so it's not necessarily for the G2, but the G2 is my main phone. Works with both my extended and retail battery in place, and how the paperclip is in the tin, it's easily bendable and can be formed to angle other phones. The tin is haevy enough and the phone sits at an angle that makes it so the stand sits strongly, no wobble or anything, even when I use the phone in the stand.

Everything I used was:

Shisha tin (could use any tin)

1 Paperclip

Exacto knife - to make holes in tin

Pliers - to bend paperclip accurately

I can take more pictures for you guys if you'd like.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] stingerNL:
actually, that is not bad at all :D i might make something like that as well :)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ilbeppez:
ahaha looks cool :D
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Gallaphanx:
A friend today told me to route a small usb hub inside the tin and to integrate the usb cable for the phone. I like this idea, however, I need to get ahold of a small powered usb hub.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] oVeRdOsE.:
haha starbuzz, the best. My fav is bluemist!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] timskyline86:
Are you talking about so you can just plug a usb into the back of it to keep it charged and a micro usb coming out the top?

If that's the case all you need is an usb extension cord and a micro usb cord, and chop it if you feel comfy soldering, or find a short enough one, and solder both sides to the tin.

Kinda vague instructions but hopefully you get the idea.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Gallaphanx:
:) That's awesome, I just got out of work a bit ago and thought of this as well. My soldering skills are way beyond usb cables so it'd be no problem for me.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] RJx307:
Awesome custom job, nice to see some hands on creativity.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] otariq:
Looks cool. Do u have an extended battery on ur phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Athrun88:
How much? lol, it's a cool looking dock, love the DIYness of it.

Did you grind down the sharp edges of the paper clips at all? Or add rubber tips to prevent any scratching? The USB Hub idea would be good too. Should pitch this dock to an OE manufacturer and start making some money off it!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] slufoot69:
My backlights are white on my G2. How did you get yours blue?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] demkantor:
pretty sure they're white, just a bad picture.

so i love anything homemade, love to build and modify to save money and have thing the way on want when you cant just buy it. so i bought it, well no need they sell pretty decent docks for the g2 on ebay, maybe im just getting old and lazy...

Wanting my album art to show up in Music.The images are .Jpg located inside the zip files. I've tried downloading a converting program but I can't get'er going for the life of me! Is there an app or something else that makes this process any easier. Thanks

[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
If you would be interested in a more feature loaded music player, and can spare an expensive Starbucks coffee one day, I suggest buying PowerAmp. It has a full EQ as well as many other features...such as album art search, download, and application.

I came across the power of this tonight actually...

I have a friend in Baltimore whose friend is trying to start a rapping while still in high school and my friend hand drew the album art. Well, PowerAmp managed to find his mixtape online and download the proper, matching, hand-drawn album art. I was baffled as it wasn't there a week ago. It's quite nice and it well worth the $5 or so it costs.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
I use poweramp and I love it. Got a great EQ on it too.
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
There is an app called "itag" that allows you to edit mp3's info including the album art.

poweramp can do that too. Unless it changes it in the poweramp database rather than i3dtag
[Kindle Fire General] mkabwilliams:
I purchased Dead Space for my HTC Evo awhile back but never played it and I just picked up a Kindle Fire yesterday. I was reading about sideloading which I've done with several of my apps from my EVO to my Kindle but when I try Dead Space and launch it it downloads a big file then says its not licences for this device. Am I missing something on to get this to work or will it not and I would just have to buy it again for my kindle from the amazon store if i wanted it. I'm not really wanting to root this device as I like it pretty much as it is.
[Kindle Fire General] lea9ue:
Tryed this myself, never was able to get it too work. I think there is a version for the kindle fire and you need that version. It was only 99 cents I believe.

---------- Post added at 11:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

You could possibly find the apk online. Install that, then find all the extra files needed and put those in the ea folder. If you let the program ( deadspace) download those files itself, its going to know you sideloaded and never paid.
