Hi guys, I've had my G2x for a while and I am just running stock GB that I got via the OTA update. My phone is rooted with the UnlockRoot program, but other than that, I have no recovery or anything flashed and I've never used nvflash.

I've tried searching through the stickies and I can't seem to find any simple guide to flash the recovery with NVflash. Can someone tell me how to do this or point me in the right direction? Thank you! :)

Thank you!! Any reason to use CWM 4 over 5? Or should I just go with 5?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] userno69:
All right I must be a total idiot here but I got CWM 5 flashed and it seems to work except for one thing. The volume buttons move the selected menu item up and down, but what do I press to select an option?? All the soft keys seem to either make a black screen with a hat appear or they move the selected item.

For the life of me I can't seem to make it actually pick an option and I feel like an idiot, lol...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Jufjufjuf:
Lol the soft buttons do actually do stuff but just use hardware keys. Power to select.

I am sure that this has been answered a million times before but I am completely lost.

Is there anyway to root a HTC Evo 3D GSM with HBOOT 1.49.0018? Preferably without losing my data ;)

Thanks,

Ubuntuz

Hi,

the Documentation says that the hboots supported are 1.49.0007 and 1.49.0008, but not the hboot 1.49.0018 ... :-(

Never mind guys, I managed to use MyBackup with the HTCdev.com method.

Thanks for the help, however, I have another question:

Can I use the official CWM on this device (GSM)? I currently use the Revolutionary CWM as I heard that CWM has issues with the device - but I need the official one to use ROM Manager...

What kind of model you choose for an European Evo3d.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] f.83:
hi everyone I'm Italian so sorry in case of bad english.

so this is the story, I have buy a galaxy gio (2nd hand) and it comes to me with a galaxy ace rom in fact in the device info the model is S5830. another and bigger problem is that some button are invert,in fact the home button do not have any effect while the effect of the home button is now the function of the vol-up button and the function of vol-up is now non existent. this cause the fact that is impossible to place the phone in download mode to flash with odin.I have flash the cyanogen 7 via recovery in order to bypass odin but the bad surprise is that the problem of the button remained unsolved after the reboot.the only mode that I be able to place the phone is "emergency dload mode arm9 mode" but odin stop in "setup connection" if I try to flash in this mode.my question is: there is something like bios in pc that command the phone that I can flash or replace with the correct one? thanks everyone in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SpaceCaker:
go to the installed rom

and download an app that can change your keys
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Buy an usb jig on ebay for less then 5 dollar, it will go into an alternative factory download mode, then flash an gio rom...

Think this is the only option since ur device cant get in normal download mode
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] markoghc:
Did all your keys work in recovery mode? Also, did you use standard recovery or Clockwork mod recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SpaceCaker:
i dont know if this will work but maybe an usb jig wil work ?

its posted before

and the people there said it worked

maybe this would help with restoring stock rom with odin
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Andy:
Please accept my sincerest apologies. I misunderstood your post.

I think there was mean to be a "c" in your post.

.

I wrongfully assumed you were telling the OP to "hang" his keys.

This was purely an error on my part, and for that I completely apologise.

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Youre also human. :)

I whas already composing a message to you about it, he trued to help.

Lets keep on topic,

If you search the galaxy gio general topics you'll see a post about usb jigs, you should read them and consifer buying one, it problably is the only sollution to your problem
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Darkshado:
Install the Android SDK and use the "adb reboot download" command.

With a bit of luck, you should get access to the normal download mode without a USB jig.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SpaceCaker:
ive found Program on x10 threads wath is called adb mask ontroller

it is just adb but just simple

and has an great design and easy to use

its good if you dont know the adb commands

like me
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] f.83:
Hi, I've read your reply,one-one I will try these methods. but while reading I have thinked one thing, why if I have installed cyanogen via sd zip now the button are still inverted? after all now I have another rom nevertheless the button remained in the earlier state.

About the question of markoghc in recovery mode I can go down in menu with vol-down but I can't go up with vol-up because the vol-up button has the function of "ok", again the home/ok button don't have any function and the power button coincide with "back function". the recovery is CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.6.

I arrive to emergency dload mode by pressing toether volup-voldown-home-power. Also I suceed to put phone in ramdump mode.I have tried all possible combinations but I do not suceed to arrive to normal download mode. Another question is only cyanogen exist via sd zip or also stock rom exist to install via sd zip? do you know? thanks everyone
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
if you can get into emergency download mode,, you should be able to flash a stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phiexz:
u must go to download mode. these are 3 mothods

1.with 3 combination button

VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER BUTTON

since ur phone button is inverted, try to learn it where button is vol down, home & power

2. if your rom rooted. i think it can more easy

download "terminal emulator" and open it and write:

su

reboot download

3. install android sdk / adb

u can goto download mode with command:

adb reboot download
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] f.83:
in emergency download mode odin recognize the phone but the process freeze in "setup connection"
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Drivers arent installed..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] f.83:
I have installed kies then driver are installed otherwise odin do not recognize phone, but in my case it recognize I start to flash but the process freez in "setup connection"
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Dont know how to fix that, sometimes its a problem with adb.

Go to task manager press execute and open cmd , then type adb, wait for all commands to show and type adb devices, and see if anything is listed..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phiexz:
try to close kies

or uninstall it. install the usb driver only

oh...I can't believe to that...really, now I want say a thing to all you, take a moment to read this post, you can't imagine how many search and forum I've write and read to ask for this problem, and no one, I repeat NO ONE, is arrived to say to me the most simple thing, the BEST thing, the thing that phiexz write:

And I found incredible this thing, that with the many posts in other forums too that have answer to me nobody is arrived to say that answer, anyhow...I entered in dowl mode and flash with odin,the button and all the rest returned to normal functioning, then, to phiexz go my biggest THANKS!!!!

[Motorola Atrix 2] unsivil_audio:
This has nothing to do with PC versus Mac, this has to do with locked vs unlocked hardware. i will be boycotting Motorola in the future, this is my first Moto smartphone and the experience has been less than desirable. It's another case of great hardware ruined by being severely limited/crippled by the manufacturer. Samsung, LG, or HTC for me in the future. :)

[Motorola Atrix 2] razholio:
Good luck in IOS jail

I sincerely wish you luck with an idevice. I was talked into trying the IP4, and knowing that I could easily sell it for enough dough to pickup some android goodness, I gave it a good, honest try. I fought for almost 6mos trying to make it fit. There were things that were nice, like the *screen*, battery life, speed, and camera.

I even jailbroke that puppy and actually had it part-way there. Unfortunately, the IOS ecosystem is so restrictive (though admittedly slowly getting better) that I wound up bashing my head against stupid, arbitrary limitations. At first, the little annoyances seem minor and tolerable. afterall, this is a pretty solid device, right? so what if you can't quite do x, y, or z. There are 'workarounds' and such, but then you realize that hitting the same little issues every single day starts to grate on you, and many of the 'workarounds' are half-ass (backgrounding apps just kills battery life, for eg.).

While IOS is well optimized for the hardware, and they really get all the speed they can out of it, the GUI also employs tricks to make it *feel* fast (smooth is a better word). Those smooth transitions are so smooth because they are slow, and the GUI will pre-load elements even before they are ready for touch input. Once I got to know IOS, I found I was tapping on freshly loaded GUI 'buttons' that ignored my input for a second or so. lame. Also, the 'polished' feel of IOS apps is almost purely illusory, as they crash frequently when 'unfrozen' (they don't get to run in the background). IOS just makes the crash look really pretty as the app disappears for just a moment and then restarts itself never telling you what actually happened. Android is just being honest when it reports an app crashed.

If yer on a tiered data plan, get ready for the hate. despite all the bull**** claims, IOS uses *far* more data than android. I could rarely stay under 200MB/mo on my IP4 despite having no widgets and only doing email and a bit of web browsing. I rarely go over 80MB in a month now that I'm on the atrix2.

A friend of mine who switched from the IP3G to the SGSII is thankful he didn't get the IP4s. He reports that his wife's IP4s seems sluggish and apps crash alot.

The iDevices can be alluring, and it might be worth trying, but just make sure you have a back-out plan. You may not even fully realize the pit yer in until months later.

I am getting sick of this phone. No unlocked bootloader.. just tweaks to stock roms. It is getting lame. I am not waiting to Q3 to get ICS.

Just root access is good enough for me. Custom ROM flashing, etc is all very overrated, IMO. And I'm coming from the Nexus S, so I know what I'm talking about.

I have to disagree. Vanilla android is soooo much better for a daily driver. I'll probably move on to a sgs ii skyrocket sooner than later for that reason alone.

As a Japanese enthusiast I'll give it a shot to the last game (The Last Mage), they look really cool. Sadly I'm not skilled at kanji but who cares, it's a free RPG :D

Edit: It asked me to register an account and verify via e-mail, which could only be made using a @something.jp address of their choice. Meaning I couldn't get it :(

It is not fair that all people in the world learn your language [English] and you don't learn thier languages :)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
My wife is from China and has no family from China here in the US. So last year we went to China for 6 months (my second time, first was 2 weeks) so that her family could see our daughter and spend time with her. Chinese is hard, but worth learning. For me I wanted to learn it out of respect to my wife and her family. Granted I am definately not fluent but I could tell her family and friends were pleased that I was trying to learn it. Chinese language doesnt have a huge vocabulary, but they do have 4 tones, and you can say the same word but change the tone and it will have different meanings. First couple weeks I was trying to say mother, to my mother in law, and she would just start laughing. Turns out mother and horse are pretty much the same with the exception of a different tone. Thank God in China they dont view calling a woman horse like how it means here in the US. :D

Otherwise I would have disappeared from Planet Earth forever. :rolleyes:

I wonder if there is any way to get the above games? Even if they are in Japanese. I know there is like market enabler, but on Verizon we do not have working sim cards slots on our phones so that wont work. Any ideas of getting these games? That would be neato.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Schmoldt:
Is it possible with MArket Enabler.?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
You know what I am not sure. I hope so. I cannot use that app as it changes your phones Sim card country ID, I am on the Verzion CDMA which does not have a working Sim card. So I cannot try it out. If someone can give it a whirl please let us know the results.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!

The three games at the top I have them. I did the following,

Made an account at the following japanese VPN, I used google translate to create an account:

(This first to fix VPN)

http://software2tech.com/tag/how-to-solve-android-phone-vpn-connection-problem/

Go to this page follow link below to access site and create a VPN account (its free)

http://www.vpnsurfing.com/2011/08/free-pptp-vpn-service-provided-by-tsunagarumon-com/

Sign in with account on VPN under wireless & Networks under your settings

I then used market enabler to reflect Docomo Japan.

I then selected the links above to see if they woulld work and they did. I almost forgot I created a new gmail and listed it as from Japan. Then i changed accounts from android market on my phone and signed in under the new gmail on the website android market. Selected the above links and they worked. They listed up as free. I will save the apks and post links for them here. Next I will try to get Ridge Racer Accelerated. Cross your fingers.

-------

In case you dont want to do any of that above you can try the games, and try using my build.prop. Remember my build.prop is from my phone which is a R800x by default. AND I am not repsonsible if anything bad should happen to you phone in attempting to try this.

Here is the link to download the zip.

http://www.box.com/s/s4srim1f4jvd3ziaxy1i

Update again..... Hmmm.... so the first 2 apps load but it appears the rpg is played inside your web browser. And I am unable to go further, will have my japanese friend take a look and see if he can get beyond that page. Same concept as with Elemental Knights Online (which supports the xperia play directional pads and x button)

Celes Arca works, again Web browserm thats why the games are so small, they are being pushed to your phone via the servers the game is on. Still getting the final stages to work, here is another game, again it was free on the japanese android market.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
K, got the games to load up and working however my Japanese is not very good, I mostly just wanted to see if I could get them to download which I have been successful. I really want to try and get Ridge Racer Accelerated, and if I can I will then see if I can get the Resident Evil 4 from the Korean market.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] rubbergnome:
Seems like they are a lot of mmorpgs. All but the last mage. Did anyone try it?

And what about the last game you mentioned? :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
yes, they are all MMORPG. The largest game is only around 9mb. The games load up in your oweb browser, meaning the game itself is being pushed to your phone via the server connection. If you have ever played Elemental Knight Online (EKO)

https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.co.winlight.eko_tw&hl=en

Its a great game and you can use your xperia play controls, no touchpad. Where EKO is mostly in english, the above ones are in straight Japanese and I am not nearly fluent enough to realy play as game. I was hoping it would be a mix of the two, guess thats why it was region locked to Japan until I got a hold of them. :D

Anyway what weird is when you click on the links above for the android market they show up as a paid game, when I selected the links and I was on the Japanese VPN with the market enabler for Japan / Docomo they popped up as free, odd. But anywhere if they were not a free app I woula most certainly not have uploaded them. I am still not able to get access to Ridge Racer Accelerated. I need to find a build.prop for the 006SH (Sharp Aquos SO-01C) phone. I have changed what I could to try and reflect the phone and I got it to see it as the above phone, but it still wont let me download it, so obviously I am still missing something. If anyone finds anything please pass it on here so that hopefully we can get access to the game.

I was able to install Celes Arca using your apk's. Luckily didn't have to use the build.prop or change stuff around.

It was a little annoying because it opens a website and had to go back and forward a few times to log in properly.

When I got into the game I soon had to close it hehe but didn't get into any fight, only spoke to a couple of NPC's and didn't really figure stuff out.
