[HTC Desire S] matthearn:
Just to be clear, I have wiped the phone using clockwork, and reflashed using fastboot from the commandline, this is still hanging on 3 mobile splash screen, I am starting to think I am cursed...

;)

Cheers,

[HTC Desire S] kylon:
Try 4ext
[HTC Desire S] matthearn:
given that I can't actually boot my phone to install 4ext from the market, is there any way of flashing it in place of clockwork? Or is there any way of just restoring it to the state before I flshed clockwork to it?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
This should do it.

Take a deep breath :) You phone is fine just need the proper components

Make a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache, boot) from the recovery

Install the custom ROM again (important)

Reboot to bootloader from the recovery power menu

Use the fastboot command to flash the boot.img

Reboot the phone normally and wait (it can take up to 10 minutes to boot)

Report here :)
[HTC Desire S] shrome99:
MOST IMPORTANT STEP. Be calm :)
[HTC Desire S] matthearn:
Thanks everyone for your help my Desire S is now Cyanogenmodded :D.

I think next week I may write a step by step for doing this on linux, once I have got over the trauma...
[HTC Desire S] RevheadKev:
First posting with a problem but done a lot of reading and can't find my answer...

I have a Desire S which had the initial telco branding splash screens for boot and animation as well as all the apps they install.

Following the excellent guide here by nodeffect for beginners I used Revolutionary to S-Off and install CWM then flashed su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip to get root.

I then followed this thread by vampire36 about flashing a rom the perfect way but did not have the option to format boot in cwm so carried out all the other steps and I have Reaper 2.0 flashed but still with the initial boot splash screen of the telco when the phone initially powers on.

Two questions...

1. Why would I not get the option in cwm to format boot ?

2. Is this why the initial splash screen still remains and do i need to use adb to flash a new boot.zip through fastboot ?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
1. There is no need to format boot on devices with flash memory (honestly I do not know exactly why, you can make a research if you like).

2. The splash screen is just a picture but is stored on another partition, so is not affected by installing other components. If you want to change it you can use Android Flasher and any image you like.

my x10 mini pro's manufacturer date is 11W19. so i can unlock bootloader succesfully or not? :confused:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Mrakoris/:
Yes, you can, but read carefully all instructions to avoid problems, like bootloop.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] RyanVIII:
yes u can......just use SE Tweaker Tool v3.3...it's more easier to do it :)

I had that problem, but it went away after signing into my account.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BeachAgent:
erf should i bother updating?

so after unboxing this device i'm left wondering if i should even bother updating to ics.

my youtube works, not GREAT, but it works. i get buffering quite a bit but if i leave it paused until the videos are 3/4 dlded then play, they run through and i attribute this to my mifi having a crappy satellite connection.

if updating causes issues i may just leave this tab in the original 3.2.1 since it works now. if it's not broke, i'm not fixin it
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] al mon:
I had this issue as well. I solved it by clearing the YouTube data and rebooting. It seems that the update corrupts the app info. Haven't had a crash since.

[Desire General] johnroberts:
All the latest HTC Desire ROMs can now be downloaded straight to your phone using a simple App - Desire ROMs - Available now on the Android Market

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.appbuilder.u23399p151892&feature=search_result

The FREE App lets you download hand picked HTC Desire ROMs from some of the best Devs from XDA including:

Sanvolds ICS ROM

ICS from CyanogenMod9

MildWild 3.0

and lots more...

All have been tested on the Desire and liked, so I'm sharing them easily with you! Lets you download the ROMs from a dedicated server, directly to your phone.

Also included are some added extras including the latest Recoveries from ClockworkMod and 4EXT, A2SD & Data2SD scripts and lots more.

GApps has now been removed, may add to the Addons section if requested.

Change Logs for all ROM's now added.

Trying to keep up to date with all ROM's as well as develop the App version 2.0. Please allow 24 hours for updates of some ROM's.

Let me know what other ROM's or Addons you would like.

The App is now 100% free at the request of Devs, Donations always welcome!

Check it out now!
[Desire General] itachi1706:
Hmm. When you click on the Sanvold one it brings you to 4shared?
[Desire General] johnroberts:
The download is hosted by 4shared, just click download.
[Desire General] loucipher:
And it's not up to date.

There's no Sandvold ICS RC1 ;)

But the basic idea is good. I keep them on my phone and hope for updates :)
[Desire General] tihimasmo:
Great idea for an app. How about short keyword descriptions of the roms in the app?

Daniel from Sweden
[Desire General] itachi1706:
+1 to this. Also, is it possible to add the changelog from the previous version?
[Desire General] michallp:
Exactly and maybe some info about when was the last update. You can also implement some rating ;)
[Desire General] johnroberts:
Change logs now added.
[Desire General] danarama:
It's good to see this app is free
[Desire General] tihimasmo:
I must again say that it's a great idea for an app. I love it when ppl come up with good ****. I have no use for it right now, but am certain I will make great use of your app in a near future. Next step, other phone models. Share your goodness with the whole community.

Are you planning on charging for it or only accepting donations?

Something in the description on market made me think you'll charge for it later.
[Desire General] danarama:
He charged for it initially then made it free.
[Desire General] tihimasmo:
Ahh, I see. What if he expanded to include more phone models, wouldn't it then be fair to charge? It would be a lot of work on his part.
[Desire General] danarama:
But the ROMs are free. Infact Android is Open Sourced. Some devs only ask donations for their roms. Some do it for fun and would never ask for money for their work.

Imagine a dev who will not ask for money out of principal, giving away his hard work as its open sourced and meant to be free - then someone else making money on the back of it.. I dont think that would be fair. I certainly wouldnt be happy with it.
[Desire General] tihimasmo:
Yeah, I see ur point. I was just picking your brain, since your something of an authority around here.
[Desire General] johnroberts:
Keeping it free!

The App is going well so far in its initial release state.

I've now added my Donate page! I want to keep the App free, as RootSU said, I would not charge for other peoples hard work. However; it is hard work keeping up with some of the Devs!

At the moment I'm downloading the ROMs from the Devs mirrors then uploading them to 4share where I can issue a direct download link to the App. As you can imagine this is quite time consuming. I'm trying to get manifests from Devs with expected new ROM release dates and maybe direct links, but I'm not getting much response as yet.

The only other way is for me to Host the ROMs myself, but it's going to get costly.

The ROMs included so far are:

Sandvolds ICS Beta

Tiny ICS Beta

AOKP ICS Beta

BCM Beta 0.3.6 ICS

MildWild v3

CyanogenMod 7.1 Nightly

Ginger Villain 3.3

Runnymede AIO

If any Devs have issues with me hosting their great work on this App please let me know and I will remove it.

Alternatively; if any Devs would like to offer any assistance it would be appreciated!

The version 2 of the App will be much more 'easy on the eye' and if I can get assistance from the devs; alot easier and quicker for me to update the ROM versions.

260+ downloads so far though..
[Desire General] tihimasmo:
I relize your effort. Props.

It'd be more than a full time work to keep up with sebastiaan ;-)
[Desire General] danarama:
Cool stuff John.

Is there no way that you can just use the links the dev's provide? That way, it wont mess up their stats so much.
[Desire General] qsacage:
Great idea! How come nobody have come up with anything similar until now? :)
[Desire General] tihimasmo:
Link the stats to app somehow?
[Desire General] johnroberts:
Some of the Devs links on xda link through 2 or 3 web pages before you get to the link. I wanted to streamline the download so you only have to click one link.

hello

is there an easy way of identifying which application generates spam messages that appear in the notifications?

sometimes the icon gives it away but not all the time..

Any suggestion?

thank you
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
Its been mentioned here before so a search will find the exact app name for you but what you need is an app from market called (I think) air push detector as the notifications are ads and it can tell you the app responsible.

Dave
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiita:
hi dave thanks for the reply

yes, i did find one called push ad detect, but that didn't work.

i may try again when / if i get the notification again

thanks for that in the meantime
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mistermentality:
The app is called air push detector and is by dan borge. If that's the one you tried there is another way and that is to install gemini app manager.

Its free and it can show all apps on your device, it shows icons detailing the features of your system it can use and one of those icons by each app will show if it contains ad related code.

That would tell you all possible apps with ads and at least narrow down your list of suspects quite a bit.

!!! This was developed and tested with ICS 4.0.3 and 4.0.3.0.2.0.1.0 !!!

!!! I take no responsibility in case of any damage to your device !!!

This is in alpha stage of development

i made same changes to framework and some libs to enable CRT-ON animation on ICS AOSP 4.0.3 and 4.0.3.0.2.0.1.0

If you want to install it, first make a nandroid backup and then update with zip package via CWM recovery

At this moment i know about some issues:

- if you turn off the phone while there is Face unlock screen and then turn on the phone, it occasionally results in reboot

- if you turn off the phone while there is lock screen and then turn on the phone, CRT-ON animation will not be played

Boot loop on Codename android and popcorn kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] static416:
May not be specific enough to be helpful, but I had a similar bootloop with this mod on a recent AOKP/Franco combination. Had to do a full wipe and reinstall of the ROM and kernel to get it back to working order.

Might have been something I did, I didn't investigate, but I've never bootlooped my GNexus before with any mods/kernels/ROMS.

In any case, don't be me. Do a Nandroid backup before you try this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kamma:
thats highly possible to get bootloop, because this mod is developed and tested on pure AOSP and most of the custom ROMs have modified services.jar, so after applying this mod the services.jar is incompatible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tristan202:
Really shouldn't be necessary to wipe all and flash a new rom. You should only need to push the original services.jar.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] KingKongApeBoy:
I went ahead and bought one. (I'd post a link to the one I purchased, but I don't have enough posts here :p)

I could only get it to pair on my Infuse, it would not connect on any of the roms I tried(Zeus, CM7, and stock UCLB1). Yep, not even the stock rom worked. I did get it to connect on my Le Pan TC970, but it would not type, or respond, to any keypress I made, and eventually my Tablet would just crash, reboot, and bootloop. I hope someone finds a working BT keyboard, I still would really like one. Hope this helps with other peoples purchases.

EDIT: It works with my iPhone 3GS.

EDIT2: I got it to work on miui 2.2.17, so far that's the only rom that I have found that the keyboard works on. Also, it works on my stock le pan, but not when on cm7.

You mean just kernel or the complete ROM with which kernel?

Cause I think it's most probably a kernel issue.

I tried to use app linked on first answer but I can only see stats and I can't determine where the problem is...

It shows wakelocks when phone is on, but not when it's off so what?

I don't like change every day a new ROM or charge so often battery without using it, so I'll try Kyrillos 9.5 again and if it will solve my problem then maybe is too soon for CM7 or ICS on this phone.

Stay together and maybe we can find a solution.

[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jason-EX:
seriously? I recommend you to go back to original CM7, cause CM7 itself can stand alone very well!
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harbons:
I mean power off, not only screen off, but also in that case I can't explain why battery drains in ~20 hours using it or even letting it on standby (I'm sure no 3g, GPS, wifi, Bt or background apps are on).

Why?

Anyway I'll give pure CM7 a try...

Inviato dal mio GT-I5800
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomsi191:
about the drain when screen is off use the app on that thread and determine which apps cause wakelocks and either remove them or change their settings (that's what i see on the screenies you attached). also keep in mind that kernels are responsible for about 80% of battery usage, so try out a different kernel too

however if there is drain when the power is off then there is something seriously wrong on your hardware. i suggest you take the battery out and leave it be for a few hours, then put it on again and see if it drained at all. If it did then replace your battery, if not then you probably need to take your to a service center
