If you had your device s-off and rooted, why HTC unlock? You just went backwards.

i started with HTC Unlock, then achieved perm-root, but (s=on)

Recovery

Hello,

I had the same issue, I had to flash the recovery with adb

1) If you dont already have it download flash_image and place it in your adb tools folder

2) Download the recovery you need and unzip, then rename to recovery.img and place in the root of your sdcard

3) open terminal and use the following commands

adb push flash_image /system/bin

adb shell

su

cd /system/bin

chmod 777 flash_image*

flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

4)wait for it to finish

5) type exit

adb reboot recovery

this should solve the issue

You can find the recovery here...including the new touchscreen version

http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager

You can download flash_image here

Thanks to Raichison for all the above
[myTouch 4G General] track40:
okay #furydude39, im all ready to run through your steps... when i issued the first command "adb push flash_image /system/bin", the handset responded with

"failed to copy 'flash_image' to '/system/bin/flash_image': Read-only file system"

Any idea where to go now? This is obviously why every time i boot into recovery that the processes initiated by RomManager isn't sticking.
[myTouch 4G General] track40:
an hour later...

I was able to execute the commands correctly that 'furydude39' recommended, and still nothing.

Here's a video I shot of the phone [still] giving me a headache

Someone's gotta have an idea on how to get past this?
[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
Have you turned off fastboot?
[myTouch 4G General] track40:
yes, just checked... fastboot is off
[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
We need to find out why it is not flashing the cw recovery. Are you able to to mount /system partition and copy files to it? I'm thinking a downgrade might be necessary so you can do gfree and eng bootloader.
[myTouch 4G General] track40:
okay guys...

I got past the last problem, of getting clockwork mod recovery to work. So, that's all set.

NOW, I use rom manager and i downloaded cyanogenmod 7.1 (stable) + google apps. Once the downloads were complete, I checked all three boxes... backup, clear caches, clear dalvik cache. The phone reboots, goes right into clockwork mod recovery.

the backup goes fine... the cyanogen flash goes without error, and then the google apps flashes without error.

NOW, the phone reboots, and the thing just hangs on the White t-mobile boot screen. Is this supposed to take a while before it goes into Cyanogen's screen? It's been sitting on this white screen for at least 5 minutes.
[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
You should manually wipe and flash. Doing it from the app seems to screw up some of the time. Make sure you wipe system data cache and dalvik before flash. It even helps to reboot recovery after doing wipe before you flash a rom.
[myTouch 4G General] track40:
i hate to ask another [stupid] question... but how do i manually do that?
[myTouch 4G General] The Archangel:
In recovery, using the volume rockers, look for factory data reset/wipe. I'm not to positive on the exact names, since I have touch recovery. When you find it select wipe data an wipe cache. after those are wiped, go back then find advance, wipe dalvik cache. When that finished, go back. Select install from sdcard, find your files an install them. Everything should work then.

If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

[myTouch 4G General] track40:
Thanks all for your suggestions. I finally was able to get Cyanogen to stick. Had to wind up flashing the boot.img manually using fastboot via Windows while in HBOOT screen.
[myTouch 4G General] eqjunkie829:
So it sounds like you are stuck with HTC unlock still? I would flash the eng hboot if I were you. It is located in the gfree thread along with directions. Make sure you verify md5sum on that file.
[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
I bet he can't flash Engineering HBOOT, because he didn't follow the downgrading guide, just unlocked the bootloader.

OP, if you don't want to have to flash boot.img manually for every ROM you'll be flashing from now on - do yourself a favor and follow the downgrading guide, found in Glacier Wiki / Root / Gingerbread.
[myTouch 4G General] furydude39:
Bootloader Unlocked ......now what

I bet he can't flash Engineering HBOOT, because he didn't follow the downgrading guide, just unlocked the bootloader.

OP, if you don't want to have to flash boot.img manually for every ROM you'll be flashing from now on - do yourself a favor and follow the downgrading guide, found in Glacier Wiki / Root / Gingerbread.

He wont be able to do it because he cant overwrite the HTC dev unlocked HBOOT.

I went down that road by mistake, luckily I had s-off before I did it
[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
The flag for S-OFF isn't set in bootloader, it's set in another partition. Bootloader just reads it.

Before this time, there was no option to test the old OS with new bootloader, since downgrading would downgrade the whole system. If dev-unlocked bootloader won't get downgraded when you're executing the downgrading guide - you'll have unique opportunity to test gfree on dev-unlocked bootloader and see if it still achieves S-OFF.
[myTouch 4G General] furydude39:
Well, it took some work but I managed to reflash the eng hboot back into my phone.

Got really tired of the "remote not allowed" messages it was giving me till it finally allowed me to do it.,

Now there is no more "locked" or "unlocked" status on the screen and it allows me to flash from recovery.

Tested by flashing an ICS rom into the phone and it booted up no issues.

Any questions check with Jack_R1 or myself.
[myTouch 4G General] track40:
Had I known unlocking the boot loader via HTC would have caused so many problems, I would have probably gone about things differently. But, since this was my first ever attempt at ROOT, I thought that HTC was doing something good for me.

#Jack_R1 / #furydude39... At this point, is it still possible to achieve S=OFF? or no? If you think it might be possible to achieve S=OFF via GFREE, can you point to a specific GFREE procedure that I should follow to test?

Do you think this GFREE tut is safe or dangerous? If the latter, what procedure would you recommend following?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypJ9qFkT-Jw
[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
Since you're running a custom OS, any standard GFREE guide out there won't work for you.

Since you're able to flash a custom OS, find and flash a rooted stock 2.2.1.

Execute gfree from there - without the rooting part that precedes it.

If it won't work - it means the new bootloader is blocking it. Then you'll need to try and downgrade fully, using the downgrading guide in Wiki under "Root" / "Gingerbread". Again, skip the "temp-root" part, since you have root to start with.
[myTouch 4G General] furydude39:
I saw in the message you sent me you are running CM 7. Congrats you are rooted so visionary is not needed. If installed, please uninstall.

This link will be the better one to follow, well written. Follow it as a rooted user.

Gday XDA,

I am posting this as a last resort - I've dug around as much as possible and haven't found a suitable solution for my problem. A couple of weeks ago, my phone loaded itself into what I now know was the boot screen while sitting in my windscreen mount. As, in my naivety, i assumed it was merely stuck on the equivalent of a POST screen, i shut the phone off. Unfortunately, it had been on the 'Factory reset' option, and the power button had confirmed that procedure.

Since I had no working backup, I decided to flash a custom ROM onto my phone, following the excellent 'Complete Tutorial for the Beginners and Others' (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1186401). I flashed the Endymion ROM using the 'perfect method' (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1257731) and all seemed well until the phone inexplicably began to shut down of its own accord.

It could be on the 'Enter PIN' screen for the SIM, or after 10 minutes of use, but sooner rather than later, it'd simply switch off. I then tried as much as I could to remedy this, including:

- Repeating the 'perfect method' and flashing a few other ROMs

- Using the 'battery calibration' app, following all instructions

- Wiping battery stats as detailed in the 'perfect method'

The only thing I have found to work is to have my phone plugged in to the charger/PC, which is why I investigated battery issues. As soon as I take it out, the problem begins again.

So, any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've had this phone since July, and it's only started doing this since the factory reset; it seems like too much of a coincidence for this issue to have surfaced at the same time. From what I gathered of the other thread, this was a problem already present in his hardware when he purchased the phone. Also, this happens without any movement of the phone, which is unlike his symptoms.

Thanks for the feedback though, I appreciate it :)

I found that my Google Calendar is not syncing today, events I added just disappear randomly.

So I cleared its data, force stopped it. But when I open it again, my main calendar's name is changed to my email address. I go to Calendar online and can't change the name (it says "Changes saved", but nothing happened). To make it worse, all the calendars won't sync normally on my Galaxy Nexus, just some random entries.

I just accidentally found another way to close the notifications menu.

Sorry if this is already known.

Usually to close the notification pull down, I flick it up or drag it up, but a few minutes ago I noticed that if I perform the same pull down motion again, notification will close.

That's all I got; so if even one person learned something new, then I'm happy.

Thanks, veritasaequita

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
Yeah he either hit the home or back
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 86Apex:
It's probably because he hit the status bar at the top. When the notification menu is pulled down you can tap the status bar and it will collapse back to normal.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ccline84:
Edit. Yeah, it's because you're hitting the status bar. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
Its because you touch the bottom bar of the pulldown window. all it needs is a tap.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Yep. If you tap bottom of pull down or status bar it will go back up. Has nothing to do with swiping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
If you use a alternative instead of touchwiz u can have custom methods to open then notification bar also. But everyone knows this one i believe
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Yeah when I was using Launcher pro plus, I set the home button to open/close notifications (and to go to home screen when not on the home screen). Actually like it that way but I also like Touchwiz, wish I could get the same options with Touchwiz.

Good find. Thanks man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] veritasaequita:
well your half correct...yes u can tap the bottom (which just makes it roll back open) "OR" you can swipe downward from the very top and it will instantly close. also it doesn't matter how far you swipe, its going to close regardless. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
You don't gave to Swype down. Once you have the notification open a simple tap on the status bar will do the trick.

What ICS were you using and what GB are you on? If anything I personally found that ICS was a bit faster and better battery.
[HTC Sensation] JDR0iD:
Went from insert coin to mikes android rev. I found ics so laggy and battery wasn't lasting 16 hours with same usuage. I am getting bored of the selection of sensations Roms they are mostly all same sense roms or new roms that all have bugs and things not working. Miui for example camera still don't work (recording). Bluetooth or camera on cm9 due to kernel and so on just seems theres always something to prevent a fully working pyramid rom So to gett all things I need working I'm stuck with a sense Rom

Going to switch to a new phone but not sure what to get Any suggestions?;
[HTC Sensation] fr0zenblood75:
I too think gb is faster but battery was better with ICS I reverted to gb before and after a while flashed ics again cuz of the battery and cm9. I still kind of want to go back to gb but don't want to have to flash the FW again and risk bricking.
[HTC Sensation] norazi:
thats your problem.. all the sense based roms are bloated and slow (insertcoin and ARHD)... try virtuous inquisition... it gets me better battery life and performance than ANY GB rom and ANY sense based ICS rom

I'm on miui 2.2.3 at the moment pretty dammn fast
[HTC Sensation] Braindrain232:
Have you looked at upgrading your batter? I just got the Anker one and the difference is significant.

im on the blitz 5 ics rom and its far better than virtuous, in terms of battery life and stability.
[HTC Sensation] the_scotsman:
Strange, I find InsertCoin ICS to be faster and have better battery life than GB.
[HTC Sensation] JDR0iD:
It must be my battery then lol
[HTC Sensation] dajogejr:
I have tried several of the ICS flavors from different ROM builders.

I keep coming back to ARDH 3.6.x.

I gotta have WiFi calling stability and the call quality when outside is bad (Lack of noise cancellation).

I too, had worse battery life on any of the ICS builds. However, performance, as measured by seat of the pants and benchmarks...was better.

I'm very appreciative of the Dev work on these...don't get me wrong.

I've found I like Sense 3.5 or 3.6 more than ICS at this point in time...the widgets and folder/app organization is superior to 3.0.

Can't wait for an OEM release so these devs can really nail it.
[HTC Sensation] redoano:
I installed an insertcoin rom but not glad to install 4.0.3. Colors seem to be sober.. I don't know why but i'm pretty sure that there's a problem with the colors. I saw a topic about it and i think it had a patch to fix it. But i can't find it.. Anyone knows? If no, i will go back to gingerbread, too until the official sensation ics release comes =(
[HTC Sensation] cjm1979:
+1. No lag at all and battery is best I've had since getting the phone. Only downside for me is waiting for apps to be updated for Ics.
[HTC Sensation] dr.m0x:
Ics is definitely faster than gingerbread. Needed to run cm7 to feel like I was actually using a dual core phone, but sense ics feels much faster than gb sense. Fast enough that I can tolerate sense now. Battery life hasn't been that exciting on ics for me though. It seems about the same maybe a bit worse but then I haven't bothered to calibrate the battery yet.

All in all, I won't ever go back to gingerbread.
[HTC Sensation] clyde.dalisay:
i have just installed insert coin ics 2 days ago and very much happy with the smoothness, stability, and speed of it. not really a rom addict but i tried only two other roms before and stayed loyal on each of them. but i think i have my new rom now and will definitely stay with baadnewz rom. battery have never been an issue of mine since its always usb plugged.

in comparison with gingerbread, there really is no contest.
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
Ran LeeDroid, ARHD, and AndroidME ICS roms,and so far liking the AndroidME the most. May try InsertCoin next week and see what the hype is about.

ICS is already faster than GB with the stock kernel, and I can imagine it only getting faster once kernel devs improve their work. This is coming from someone running Pyramid3D 12 hours prior @ 1.512g overclocking kernel.
