now its rooted and i want to install different roms what should i do i mean what should be my next step? should i install Clockwork Mod recovery if yes then how??
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sambavadekar:
Next Step

If you just wanted to install ROM's then you didn't have to unlock boot loader

you could have just rooted it using superoneclick or the way you did and install a recovery by following the link in the following thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=921652

then press backspace during load to enter recovery , full wipe(if your now in stock rom)and install custom.zip or update.zip of any rom you like(that works on stock kernel) and reboot.

But since you are unlocked...you can install a better faster kernel like naa or alf

by following the thread here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1350484

(you search for alf yourself in development forum)

and then install a rom that uses these kernel the same way using recovery or flash tool if you hav ".ftf"

On PC: Go to Alfs kernel thread--> download Alfs v07 kernel--> place it to /flashtool/firmwares, run flashtool, select flash (lightning icon), select Alfs v07, click ok. On phone: Turn off phone, press back button and hold it, attach phone to PC while pressing back button, green led appears, release back button, let the PC work. When Flashtool give the "flashing finished" message, unplug the phone. Turn it on. When it shows kernel logo, press back repeatedly to enter recovery.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ninrocket2:
Try setting the flash to OFF. It's the pic of the lightning bolt.

Does it still do it. If it does then you have a problem.

If it is set to AUTO mode and it's doing this...just go outside in bright light and see if it still does it or not.

If it does it then...you have a sensor problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] azn_indeed:
It doesnt happen when flash is off

when auto, i found that it lights when dark and not when its bright

so is this normal? when flash is ON, it flashes when focusing?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
yes it is normal. You want to focus with the flash on because that is how your picture is going to be taken... with the flash on... Most phones can't focus with the flash off.. it's like focusing on a black screen, you'll get a red square

[HD2 General] Som30ne:
Hi All.

During the last few days I have a weird behavior for the weather widget in HTC sense (WinMo6.5) - the original weather screen that comes with htc sense on winmo 6.5.

I added some cities to it's list (using weather city editor).

Up until a few days ago - these cities were updated just fine.

During the last few days, when I have these cities in the list of cities displayed,

I get a message that a connection error occurred, and they're data is not shown.

When I remove these cities, everything works just fine, and update is performed without any error.

Again - just to emphasize the point - I have not added new cities recently.

I read somewhere (on an Android forum discussing a problem close to mine)

that there might be some cache for the htc sense somewhere and ddeleting it resolved the problem there.

Is there such a cache on the WinMo version ?

If so - where is it ? And - will this help here too ?

(I also removed the Weather.ServerURLOverride - so it updates from the htc.accuweather directly)

Anyone else had this problem ?

Thanks
[HD2 General] Som30ne:
Some more findings

So I did a little test, and drove to one of the cities I added,

just to see if when it is detected as the "Current location" the weather data appears.

and - as it seems - as the "Current location" the weather data was retrieved without problem.

And when set as an additional city - still nothing.

So -

anyone ?

Thanks.
[HD2 General] hugojungle:
Same with me

I had the same problem at the beginning of this year.

This week it started again.

It affects only the manually added locations. I'm sick of doing again a complete setup, to figure out where the problem is, but I guess, that Accuweather has changed the location codes.

If anyone has a proper solution - well it would be helpfull.

Hugo the JungleDyret
[HD2 General] Som30ne:
I tried hard-reset and adding the cities again.

I tried it on my brother's device (He has an HD2 as well) that never had any manually added cities - and it occurred in these cases as well.

So I could only conclude that this is a general issue and not because of something on my device.

(And probably not on yours as well)
[HD2 General] Asquared:
I'm experiencing this same issue. It also occurred with me last year, when apparently the Conflipper or Not2Advanced (the default on our HD2's, I believe) weather server went down. At the time, I used JVH's Weather City Editor app to input a new, custom server (accuweather) and that seemed to solve the problem then. You might try this approach, and see what happens.
[HD2 General] Alwin Dimmeler:
I had the same Problems (laready also in January 2012 and last year).

After changing the server to default, all citiesbut the manally added were updated. I found this solution at (German language):

http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/htc_hd2_forum/235696-htc_hd_2_wetter_kommt_mehr-2.html#post1936826

Today I found at (also german language):

http://www.pocketpc.ch/htc-touch-dual/41698-mal-wetter.html

I found this URL

http://htc.accuweather.com/widget/htc/forecast-data_v3.asp?ac=TR2cra9U&locCode=EUR|DE|GM001|Konstanz

for manually added cities. There you have set the city after "locCode=" accordingly.

Now the weather update is working again for my manually added home town and for other cities as well.

Hi all

I forgot to mention, that I added the server in the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\Weather.ServerURLOverride

Good luck

Alwin
[HD2 General] Som30ne:
Great !!

Thanks.

I knew about the URL

http://htc.accuweather.com/widget/htc/forecast-data_v3.asp?ac=TR2cra9U&locCode=

and I have tried setting it in the Weather.ServerURLOverride in the registry, but it didnt help.

In one of your linked posts - they added

%25ls

at the end of this URL, and this had resolved the problem.

So - the entry in the registry should be:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\Weather.ServerURLOverride=http://htc.accuweather.com/widget/htc/forecast-data_v3.asp?ac=TR2cra9U&locCode=%25ls
where ls = <lower case L>s, and !not! <Uppercase I>s
[HD2 General] xdaConvert:
Som30ne. You're brilliant. Thanks.

Tried but put a small u 1st time and a 1 for the l the second (duh) but 3rd time lucky.

What I don't understand is that this same error (ie added locations stop updating) has occured at least 3 times in the last 6 months and it takes ages to troll around the site to find the fix. The fix seems to be different Registry entries each time. Do Accuweather keep changing something (and if so, do they document it somewhere so we plebs can find it and change it before the fact) or what? Could a sticky maybe be posted telling everyone what the "current reg entries" need to be so next time, one goes to the sticky and updates?

Please. Someone.....

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
When you start taking these devices apart, you have to be very cautions. I've learned this the hard way :( . It's not something for the faint of heart. It sounds like something didn't get put together quite right. As for the screen being dark in the first lace it's most likely the LCD that's gone bad. Another thing I've picked up is that unless you just dropped it, and the digitizer cracked ( Glass ) . You should just replace both as an assembly. The digitizer, and the LCD together. It just makes things easier in the long run ;) .

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Well the thing is there's so many chances to mess something up. If you didn't connect the pins just right. If the glass is not sitting in the track. One of the ribbon pins bends. You really have to be Uber carefull.

I there

Just bought brand new xperia ray (unbranded actually :p)

I unlocked it successfully using THIS METHOD, then I rooted it with DooMLoRD v4 tool, then I installed the CWM and BusyBox using SE Extreme Tweak Installer v1.8.

Since then, all was okay, stock rom was functionnal and I was able to boot on the recovery, then I made a factory reset under CMW (wipe cache/data) and installed MIUI GB.

Tried to reboot but got stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo for minutes...

So I unplugged the battery and tried to boot in recovery with no success...

Did I miss something ? I am not too worried, I guess there is a way to fix this problem, I'll accept your advices :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berbecverde:
Did u try any other Rom or just the MIUI?

Did u make a backup of your Stock rom? Can you enter fastboot mode? Try to flash a kernel with cwm. Or try flashing the ICS beta. Or... i have no more ideas :(

If yes, did u try to restore the stock rom?:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] *boy*racer*:
Did you flash the kernel to go with the rom?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berbecverde:
I assumed that everyone knows that:p. That may be a problem.:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] *boy*racer*:
Lol yeah. The reason I said that was because he said it was stuck at Sony Ericsson logo, and I'm not sure if MIUI roms run on Sony Ericsson kernel?

Does it? :-/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berbecverde:
Every rom i tried came with it's own kernel. Do no realy like Miui so i did no try that one.

Anyway if the kernel is the problem the a fastboot flash correct boot.img should fix the problem.:)

He should be able to enter CWM using the current kernel right?:confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] superwoosh:
MIUI kernels don't usually have the SE logo, so I guess OP didn't flash the kernel that came with the ROM.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JackyJack:
Ho yeah, I did not flash any kernel, I think this is the point here...

I thought kernel would be included in the rom image (it's the case on HTC devices)

I am new to sony underground, seems a lil' more complicated, I'll get used to it...

Anyways, as I can't boot into recovery anymore, what can I do to flash the kernel ?

Edit : Of course I did a full backup in CWM before flashing, but i can't use it :/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] berbecverde:
You have to install flashtool from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351324

Then you enter fastboot mode: turn off your phone then hold the vol up button and insert the USB cable. You should see the blue led. this means you are in fastboot mode.

In the installation dir of Flashtool you'll have a x10flasher_lib folder. This is were the fastboot.exe file is.

The easy way is to copy the kernel(usualy a boot.img file) to this folder, then open a command prompt window and flash the kernel:

fastboot flash boot boot.img if the kernel has a different name then change the boot.img.

Done.:)

Anyway, if something is wrong someone please correct me. :D

Thank you.

[Atrix 4G General] JeRrYFaR:
My apologies, as I wasn't sure where to post this.

For a long time now I've been running CM7 both the nightlies and the weeklys with no issues. Yesterday I decided I would try Neutrino ROM and installed GT 2.5. After that I noticed I had no data connection so I attempted to patch the ROM using Notorious's recommendations to no avail so I installed 2.2 and the Google addons, Sync, etc..

All was working great, however everyone said 2.5 was better in the forums so I installed it again today and attempted to patch as explained and this time was successful. I had data connection again and all was well. About an hour later I went to use my phone and it was completely black.

I attempted to power it up and nothing happened. I finally had to pull the battery and was able to get it to boot up properly, however my data connection was gone again. I ran the sysctl -p command in terminal again and rebooted it to no avail. I finally decided to go back to 2.2 which worked properly last night, however after installing from the zip and the addon zips it went to the 'Dual Core' screen and then rebooted back to the 'Dual Core' screen and keeps doing that.

I attempted to go into Recovery Mode, however when it says 'Entering Recovery Mode' it just goes black and I can't power it back on. I then have to reseat the battery before I can get it to work.

I guess at this point, is there anything I can do to get my phone back? I've seen the hard brick messages and I don't have that (yet), but I am not sure, because I apparently can't get that far. Thanks for any help you can provide.
