:D:D That's great. Yes this method can be used for every writesecureflag brick device. And there are lot of them around.......
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
we'll still need to figure out how to get a non-bricked device into this emmc mode.

do you guys remember reading about any other qhsusb_dload bricks that were not caused by secureflag commands? i know a lot of desire people had those as well. we need to spread the word, once the guide is out.
[HTC Sensation] Fuses:
Yes, next job is to find way to get working phones to this emmc_mode. I mean those amaze4Gs, Vivids etc which are stuck in that crappy S-ON. When somebody finds the way to do that, it will be only matter of minutes to turn those to the S-OFF.....
[HTC Sensation] DJW6927:
Congratulations... A true soap opera for geeks.

Honestly...Better than Eastenders. Really enjoyed following this.. much more than you no doubt :-)
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
is there a way to compare a bricked download mode and the wire-trick one on a good phone?
[HTC Sensation] Fuses:
I don't know, have to think a little bit. JTag could be one, but thats real PITA. Ramdumps are another thing, but those are blocked or does not exists in 8xxx.

My guess is that emmc-mode could be accessible by executing some address from that PBL_DLOAD mode. Or some sdcard trick. Or some key-sequence+wiretrick or something else, or or or......
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
Great work MOVZX! When you find some time let us know how you got a stable connection and we'll be able to write a guide on how to unbrick devices.

Ladies and gentlemen this is the moment we've been waiting for. The Sensation is finally unbrickable! A huge thanks to everyone participating on that :D
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
i've pm'ed cxb01 to see if they had to do any special key combos or anything like that on their devices.

can we log the wire-trick non-bricks to see what's going on when that pin is grounded? i've noticed that it does a bunch of connect-disconnect type of noises when a wire is inserted before finally going into the dl mode.

i wonder what would happen if we hit "put in dload mode" from qpst while the phone is already in it? :)

i guess, three wasn't (sic) enough :)
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
Let the haters *****in' . We found it. We just need to perfect it. If I'm not wrong , movzx just replaced the bootloader nbo, we just need to find the trick to get the phone to stay in the emmc partition mode. The qpst seems like its useless that way... So no need to mess anymore with Chinese guys :)
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
i assume bricks won't have that problem. we'll need to find a way to have the non-bricks to access that mode. i would definitely put disclaimers in the OP that this is not for the faint of the heart. We still don't know what's all out there.
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
This is fantastic news, ive benn following and testing along the way but nothing really useful.

From what ive seen on the sensation a vast amount of the bricks were caused by going S-on with an unsecure boot image so this will help a lot of people once in the form of a guide and once we can replicate getting stable emmc with bricks.

there were other users on here who had bricks and were willing to help, maybe pm some of them
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
Just don't announce anything on the 1st page. I just said its almost done. No need to say anything else. We need to make sure this is working before we get noobs raiding in here. We have to keep this dev only and set a goal of 20-30 devices first before publishing a guide. Also it would be good to get to know these partitions better on bricked and unbricked devices ;)
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
id like to see some testing from MOVZX's device to check that he can still go S-off again and flash custom roms etc. Just make sure that this hasnt caused any issues we didnt think of.

I think the secure flag sits on the radio.nbo so in theory we could use that to remove the secure flag on the device also?
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
Ok, now I've got another challenging condition:

1. I turned on the phone, but stucked at white HTC logo

2. And that the device is S-ON, but the bootloader window still like Revolutionary version (3 green Android robot under the screen)

3. HBOOT version is 1.17.0011

4. RUU Failed to Flash because it reported that 'BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR'

Any ideas? I have 2 hours more before I go home :(
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
movzx, what was your hboot before you bricked it?

did you do a nandroid backup before bricking? if so, try restoring it.
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
Before I bricked it, the HBOOT version is 1.17.1111 from Revolutionary, and now the HBOOT version is 1.17.0011

And the recovery is unaccessible, I mean I didn't have any custom recovery.img flashed before I killed it :)

Oh yes, some info that might help:
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
we need somebody to grab that (revolutionary) hboot for you. does it not load into any kind of recovery? what about bootloader?

try running the revolutionary tool to get s-off on that hboot.
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
Revolutionary need a phone which could be turned up (standby screen, whatever), mine just stucked at white HTC logo don't You mind it?

What is this:

INFOversion-main: 1.50.707.1
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
post from someone who cannot post here yet, another success!

---------- Post added at 03:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

but if you put the revolutionary HBOOT back onto the hboot partition with the secure flag still set it will just auto brick again?
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
about the 15.50.707.1

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23449074&postcount=342

well, the secureflag command was set onto an unmodified rev hboot. somebody with a working phone could dump their s-off'ed hboot and movzx could try?
[HTC Sensation] Hawke84:
I might be wrong but i thought S-On secure flag was written to one of the radio partitions, then when it was checking signature of HBOOT it caused brick. as i understood it, his phone came back to life as S-on because hes just replaces the unsigned Hboot with a signed one. I think, like you say we may need a system dump of the other partitions, or maybe get him to follow the revolutionary S-off process from the start to re-write the secure flag again
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
I think I should dump and analyze something (secure flag) inside partition 9, since secuflag stored inside it (CMIIW):

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

How do I re-brick it again since I typed fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 and no response, I mean it's not going to be bricked again so I could access the eMMC the way I like and overwrite the HBOOT again.
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
quick development here. cxb01 responded:

so, in qpst. we just hit "program mmc" in qpst and the device should switch to the mmc mode.
[HTC Sensation] MOVZX:
Revolutionary didn't detect it as the device stayed on HBOOT screen :)
[HTC Sensation] RussianBear:
ok, we'll need to extract the hboot from your particular ruu version 1.50.707.1. Which RUU are you trying to run that gives the "wrong bootloader" error?

can't find that 1.50.707.1 ruu here: http://www.filefactory.com/f/c87a2330449af512/ probably one of the latest Asian ruu's.

that's the one you have right now:

Look at the last screen!

Official Google app with a screenshot of a Nexus S 4G, clearly labeled as 4G and running on Sprint, running Android v4.0! Although the date is 10/26/11 so I guess they've really been working on it for all of this time...
[Nexus S General] petrochemicals:
Yeah, and they still can't get it to work. That is just sad. You would think that they would have had the foresight to make sure ICS could work on their other Nexus devices instead of strictly designing it for the Galaxy Nexus. You know there is a problem when the programmer of the OS can not get it to work on devices that were designed to their own strict specifications. Think of what the OEM's have to go through to get this crap to work.
[Nexus S General] ZeroCool84:
Of course they've been working on it. There were leaked shots before the Galaxy Nexus came out with a Nexus S running a version of ICS. It doesn't happen over night.
[Nexus S General] Rblacula:
I know, but at least this time it's an official screenshot that wasn't leaked! I'm just really excited! Surely it'll come out before the end of March! I was hoping before March, but I installed the leaked build anyway, so I'm good for a while! ;p

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BruceWayne133:
So after seeing demonstrations of Sense 4.0 at MWC, there wasn't much that I was jealous of when compared to stock ICS. However, I was impressed by the implementation of multitasking that HTC has put into the new version of sense.

I haven't seen a thread about this, so I wanted to ask...What are the chances of any brave devs out there working on porting over the sense 4.0 task-switcher to our beloved Galaxy Nexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackDino:
Personally I would rather see a wp7 multitasking, I dislike the tilt on sense 4.0 screens
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BruceWayne133:
That's actually a good point. I'd take either. Right now I'm settling for an AOKP customization where the task switcher is horizontal, but the app previews remain the same size.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tristan202:
If you would be pleased by just getting the app previews smaller, that's just a simple xml edit in SystemUI.apk

EDIT: Here's a link on how to do it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlackDino:
The previews still look pixelated though,

Need a higher quality image
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikosrs4:
They look pixelated because this is how it can show them quickly and not waste too much memory on it. Otherwise imagine 30 opened apps with high quality previews :p

Also, at our pcs they look more pixelated than in our phones.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BruceWayne133:
It's not so much the size change that I'm looking for, it's that slick, smooth look and feel that WP7 and Sense 4.0 have for multitasking. Image preview quality doesn't concern me too much as I hopefully won't be looking at the images for long if I'm just quickly switching tasks.

thread is here : [MOD] Change ICS App Switcher to Windows Phone 7 Style

for nexus s only...(sorry i don't have galaxy nexus.. :o)

but i wrote guide for this mod :) : [HOWTO] Change ICS App Switcher to Windows Phone 7 Style
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
WP7 style is WebOS style and has been implemented in AOKP/CM9 Rome for a while. Swipe up/down to close. You can view more screens the traditional ICS way but no different except we have a transparent black vs solid blue, but that could be changed with a replacement image.

Nothing new here, fyi

The 3D effect of sense would be a welcome addition though but functionality wise we already have this, just not as pretty

Sent from the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evilisto:
yes. wp7 style mod is based on webaokp mod by brucekey. (so i gave credit to him in mod and howto thread.) but at least it is not just replace background color only.

i did several changes to make it similar to wp7 app switcher..

- thumbnail : higher resolution, bigger, proper ratio(to have full screen view without distort)

- remove app icon and fading edge.

- and background color..

- adjust landscape layout too to make look better.

maybe all these things are meaningless to you but please don't say like i just re-post original webaokp mod :).. i did some trial and error to get current layout.

yes it is nothing new as you said but i think the result is much more closer to wp7 then original webaokp mod.

i'm sorry if this post offend you.
