[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
I have a Tmobile G2 rooted running Gingervillian (gingerbread 2.3.1) and I tried to install the Desire z hboot to get the Sense ui.

I followed the steps here, "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogZfSWLlvPg"

HERES THE PROCEDURE OF WHAT I DID:

After updating the PC10IMG.zip (Desire Z hboot) folder to the root of my G2, I was stuck on the HTC logo screen after updating. So I followed what the guy said in the video, deleted the PC10IMG file in my SD card then rebooted my phone.

After rebooting my phone, I was booted back same rom. So I flash/recovery my phone through Rom Manager and tried rebooting my phone to clockwork mod recovery mode.

After rebooting, I didn't go to Clockwork Mod but to FASTBOOT screen? I select "bootloader" and it goes to a quick load that says something like "SD loading, no image or wrong image". I select "Recovery" then it goes to the HTC logo for a split second then I'm back to FASTBOOT screen again.

This is the info on the fasboot screen? don't know if that'll help:

Vision pvt eng S-off

Hboot-0.84.2000 (pc1010000)

Microp-0425

Radio-26.02.15_m2

eMMC-boot

Sep 8 2010, 15:65:38

So now, I don't know what to do and my questions are:

1.) Is there a way to go back to the G2 hboot?

2. Can I still fix this and procedure on and install new roms on recovery clockwork mode, using Desire Z hboot? (as the video did)

Please help a brother out :confused: I'm still a noob and still learning. If this is in the wrong place, please move it to the correct place.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
would any PP99IMG.zip file work? And do I basically put it in the SD's root and put it into the boot menu to update the file?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
by the way, is this compatible with G2s?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
don´t put the pp99img.zip on your sd !

do something different:

download a recovery.img (3.0.2.4 for vision):

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD

be sure to remove any pc10img.zip or so from your sdcard. then put your phone in fastboot mode (power & tp-wake) connect it to pc and flash the recovery through fastboot by typing: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

after that you should be able to enter recovery. be sure to wipe before installing a new rom...

I'm assuming I need to do ADB? If so, Is there a way for Mac ios
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
Yes, you can run adb on a Mac. See the link to my adb guide in my signature (assuming you're not viewing from the XDA app, which doesn't show the full sig).

Sent from my Desire Z running CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
Okay, just to make it clear (I am a "step by step" guy when it comes to technical computer/phone stuff.), from my understanding:

1. Download the recovery.img (3.0.2.4 for vision) and put it in the root of my SD card.

2. Delete any pc10img.zip files from SD card.

3. Turn phone off and then turn phone onto FASTBOOT mode by holding power/volume down/camera or power and tp-wake? (Btw what's tp-wake? and during this process, is the phone in fastboot screen mode while I'm about to type the "flashboot flash recovery recovery.img"?

4. Connect to computer, open up terminal (Mac) and do the ADB process and type in "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

5. Wipe clean and install new rom in recovery mode? (Clockwork Mod recovery mode?)

PLEASE correct my steps or add in any steps that I'm missing. I bought my phone rooted so I never went through these steps before. Anyways please correct me, I don't want to ruin my phone anymore than it is already.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
anyone can review my steps?:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
good morning ;)

ad step 1: don´t put it onto your sd; put it into the adb tool folder on your pc !

ad step 3: tp-wake = the square button at the bottom of your phone (the one that acts like a mouse); to enter fastboot mode press power & tp-wake

...the phone should be in fastboot mode while typing the command.

before you type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" type "fastboot devices" and look if your phone shows up... if so go ahead with flashig the recovery (by the way, you may have to rename the recovery file)

step 4 and 5 look fine...

good luck :)
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
okay, I will try it in a little bit here.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
In FASTBOOT USB mode, it wont recognize my device but when my device is fully on, adb works.

I get when I type "flashboot devices" (while the phone is on FASTBOOT) in terminal and get:

"-bash: fastboot: command not found"

By the way, I renamed the downloaded flash to "recovery.img" and put that file in the "platform-tools". Don't know if that'll work.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
The "fastboot" command should be on your PC in the same folder as the "adb" command. Where did you get adb from, did you install the SDK and platform tools, or something cut-down ?

Sent from my Desire Z running CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
hm... that means that you do not have fastboot installed. maybe google for fastboot on mac, because i have a linux system... so i can´t help you in that point.

other thing you could do is following this guide (it´s a pc10img.zip with dz hboot and clockwork recovery):

http://www.virtuousrom.com/2011/06/t-mobile-g2-users-migrating-to-desirez.html

but first i would try the fastboot method - it´s safer.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype2:
Okay, I got the fastboot devices to read my phone. But it cannot load my recovery.img?

This is what got when I typed in "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" :

error: cannot load 'recovery.img'
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
rename it to recovery and try again...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fant0mas9:
Could other users of Touchscreen tune please advise what settings they found to be optimal for them with the Prime.

Also I was wondering which writing app, once the screen has been tweaked, people have found to be better in responding/capturing their writing.

And while I'm on this vein, if there are any lefthanders and what they have done to get around the issue of your palm continually bumping the home/back etc buttons on the status bar when writing. I've not been able to find any app that can hide the status bar under ICS
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mtotho:
These work good for me. I take notes often.

To get to the menu box that is open, go to the options on the top right.

As for notetaking apps, I use "Antipaper Notes", its good, you get a 5 page free trial then its a few bucks. The only downside is that registration is not through the market, and it isnt maintained if you wipe your system and restore it with Titanium, you'd have to email the developer.

Have a nice day :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gary_O:
Here's the TouchScreenTune settings I use:

Minimum movement amount = 0

Disable movement filtering = not checked (when checked, writing was very squiggly for me)

Touch sensitivity = 25

Palm detection = 50

My favorite notetaking app is LectureNotes. It has a flexible zoom capability, which allows you to write in that zoomed mode, and combined with TouchScreenTune really picks up small movements of the stylus. The developer is very active and responsive in adding features, often by the next day after making a suggestion! Highly recommended!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joxnas:
Id suggest you to try quill,lecture notes ,writepad and antipaper. I tried them all and writepad is really smooth compared to the rest. Here are my settings for touchscreen tuner

And here is one of my notebooks ( my handwriting is not very good)

https://viewer.zoho.com/docs/dXrbu

About system bar,writepad allows you to flip the app layout so system bar stays on top

I wanted to post on another thread, but since I haven't got a post count, I can't.

(member for almost a year though)

I currently have a Samsung i9000, which is purely for dev & test purposes.

(I just bought a HTC Desire S for daily use).

I will also have a HTC Hero as soon as a new battery arrives. (on order)

I am willing to to test anything, from custom roms to apps, nightlies etc..

I've a fair bit of experience in beta testing of PC software, and used to be a windows dev myself.

I know how to write bug reports :)

For now I'd like to focus on testing on the Hero and the i9000, as I need a working phone for daily use. (and I haven't played with the Desire S enough to not screw it up)

On the i9000 I can flash any ROM you want me to test apps on (official ones: 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.3.3, 2.3.5, 2.3.6), ICS, Cyanogen or MIUI.

The Hero I haven't been able to try anything yet, since I can't boot without a battery.

I'm seriously interested in this one for instance:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1518731

I'm using a dedicated macbook for playing with this, which dual boots into win7.

Let me know if there is anything I can add, thanks to reading this forum I've learned a lot about android and the tutorials are excellent!

(hence me being a member for so long, without questions...)

Cheers & thanks for this great resource, it's time to give back!

I like the app. A few suggestions? Include type of movie genre and long pressing the title gives you the option to subscribe. And having the menu settings on top is not easily navigable. Better to have it pop up on bottom like most apps. Thanks for the great work!

[Android Apps and Games] okibi:
Thanks for the feedback! Funny thing is that I had it on the bottom and it was requested to move it to the top! I might rethink the buttons for the next release, possibly adding them to a bottom bar and having them always visible.

FlixAlert 1.4.1 is now up on the market! Changelog is in the OP.

I updated but when I clicked on sign in, it says I'm subscribed and asks for password for verification. All the passwords I normally use all seem to be incorrect. Any way to reset password? Thanks. Also, it would be awesome to subscribe automatically when you long press on the movie as I seem to keep on doing that and all it does is show my copy paste dialog box. :)
[Android Apps and Games] okibi:
You can also download it at http://4ndr01d.com/apks
[Android Apps and Games] okibi:
It says that because your phone is already tied to an account, most likely if you did an update. Should be same password. You can pm me or email me with what email you used and I will reset your password.

I forgot to mention, the long press menu is going to be added to an upcoming version as well.

[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
Well I am in the mood/ a mission to just royally mess up my phone today and luckily the portal is chock full of suggestions and mods to help me do just that.

The first I found was the GPS fix from earlier and now:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1523760

Beats by DRE for all Gingerbread roms.

I went through it a bit and it didnt seem like it was gonna mess with anything (mostly different files) so I went ahead and flashed it.

Everything is working fine and there doesnt seem to be any conflicts with Voodoo Sound. Does it improve the audio? I guess I am not enough of an audiofile to really know...

Just wanted to say that it seems safe to flash and throw it out as an option
[Verizon Droid Charge] imnuts:
Just to help people understand what Beats is (from what I know). It is more or less an audio filter that changes how the audio is processed coming from the device. It also changes the EQ curve some to accentuate the lower frequencies and then gives you a "distorted" output.
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
How can you tell if it installed correctly? is there any settings? Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piizzadude:
As far as I can tell there no settings, and they are just under the hood enhancements.

Charged up post!
[Verizon Droid Charge] buhohitr:
+1 Yeah, the reason I asked cause I couldn't tell the different after installed. I heard everyone swore that it's huge different in sound quality, well I guess not for me. Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Charge] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
it may have to do with the quality of the audio card in the charge. I felt like i noticed more of a difference when I flashed this on my kindle fire than I did on my charge.
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
The charge has one of the best DACs around on a phone... That's why voodoo sound works
[Verizon Droid Charge] BleedsOrangeandBlue:
That was my whole point... A device that renders sound exceptionally well is going to benefit less from minor software tweaks than one with a ****ty card that plays poorly out of the box.

Just because someone says "build quality" doesn't mean that they mean "bad build quality".
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
I think Beats sounds like crap anyway. It overemphasizes the bass and muddies up the mids. It's really intended for bass heavy music and doesn't really work well for anything else, IMO.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Beats... Audiophiles? Thanks for making me laugh this morning.

Hi,

I installed the consumer preview on my HP touchsmart tm2t-1100 and all works fine, just that not a single Metro app will launch! I look through many forums, blogs but couldn't find anything to fix my problem. What I checked already:

Resolution is 1280x800, so sufficient

UAC is on default

Graphics card updated to ATI catalyst for win8 consumer preview

tried using both, Live and local user, but neither works

Please help so I can enjoy some of that Metro beauty too.. :(
