So I downloaded this firmware T-MOBILE: DOWNLOAD 3.12

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

The firmware was updated successful and I now back on my home screen. It is NOT boot looping any more.

I want to wipe everything and put ICS 4.0.3 on it. I guess my phone is not fully rooted yet, right? So what do I have to do next?

I do have to mention that my Hboot version has been changed from 1.27 to 1.23.

Some details about my phone:

Android 2.3.4 Sense 3.0

Software number: 1.50.531.1

Kernel version: 2.6.35.13

Glad to hear you are back up and running, now follow the guide here to get rooted, super cid, etc http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

Do yourself a favor rename all of the previous PMG58IMG files you downloaded or delete them so you do not become confused when you download the recovery from the guide I linked you to.
[HTC Sensation] KingSatish:
Thank you I'm happy that I didn't brick my phone.

I'm trying to do STEP 3 but doesn't go. I get this after I select Recovery.

I'm guessing that Recovery CWM is not installed. In STEP 2 I have to download the Recovery v5.0.0.8. I downloaded recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid from http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager.

What do I do with the Recovery file it's a IMG file?

Thanks Everybody...
[HTC Sensation] :
You update in bootloader same as you did for firmware.

To note also, for newer ics roms you will most likely need to flash newer fw than 3.12.

In STEP 2 it says I need to download recovery v5.0.0.8 but it doesn't say what I need to do with that file. I downloaded I downloaded recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid from http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager.

What do I do with the Recovery file it's a IMG file?
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
Flash in fastboot like all PMG58IMG, files, place it on your sd card. Boot into bootloader and update. You must do step 2 before step 3.
[HTC Sensation] KingSatish:
Do I have to put the Recovery.IMG file in the PMG58IMG.zip file? Because I tried to flash the recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid it doesn't go. I just copy and paste it on my SD card. I didn't place it in a zip.

I go in Hboot mode then to recovery then I get this:

[HTC Sensation] :
1. Put pmg58img on the ROOT of your SD card, not in any folder.

2. Boot into boot loader

3. It will ask you to confirm update. Do that and wait.

4. When its finished reboot

[HTC Sensation] KingSatish:
I did that it was successful but what do I do with the Recovery file please look step 2.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

The recovery file is not a PG58IMG file or zip file it a image file.

I downloaded my PG58IMG file here:

T-MOBILE: DOWNLOAD 3.12

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

That PG58IMG file worked for me to update the firmware. My question is when I download the recovery file which is a image file what should I do with it because I put it on my SD and fastboot it and it doesn't work.
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
I see the problem, the links from where you are downloading have the files improperly compiled, that's the problem.

Go to page three of this thread, someone posted a properly compiled CWM Recovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1277975

Download the file, it's a PMG58IMG file, it is working for others. Someone needs to update the guide, no wonder there's so many users having trouble installing recovery.
[HTC Sensation] KingSatish:
Thank you, I was thinking about that and I did it before you replied. I downloaded the Recovery file that is a image file and made a PMG58IMG.zip file. After that I copied the .txt file from the firmware PMG58IMG.zip file and paste that in the Recovery zip. I was a success I'm permanently rooted.

Now I have to do the next steps hope I'll do them correctly.
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
I am glad you got it sorted. Have fun and enjoy flashing!!:D:D

thank you very much i got everything running perfect. I have the android 4.0.3 stock untouched rom on my phone...

When i booted in to hboot after putting the zip on my sd card and back into the phone, it asked me if i wanted to update i clicked volume up. it did its thing then asking me to reboot and i clicked yes.

it shut off came back on to the htc start up screen went to the next one and shuts off and repeats itself. its never ending:( i try to click recovery and it just goes back into bootloop....i try to click factory reset it just starts then gives me a ret triangle......what did i do wrong...someone please help me get out of this mess.

If your backups are GB based they will not work on 1.27 h boot. You need 1.23 h boot or 1.18 or 1.17 to run GB ROMS.

I have this problem and it has me STEAMING!! i have tried stock 4.0.2 and a bunch of roms, bunches of kernels and basebands and i can shake this problem, OMG i want to throw this unsubsidized uninsured phone into my BUTT! I can cache my slacker stations (3.99 a month wasted) and all my games that required additional downloads wont DL either ($234,645,233 wasted) and transferring my google music to offline takes a million tries, i am going to try every other rom today to make sure but for the life of me i dont know what to do, i might get a note or ride my atrix a little bit more until some quad cores tickle me, you know for being a android fanboy i am pretty peeved at this nexus, i dont need the best specs, i want the best software, my atrix still is so relevant in todays market, i feel like screaming, but not enough to get an iphone, i mean, i would live with it if i must

as far as what i have done, i clear my download manager a million times a day and also keep my screen on (sometimes i swear it helps) but i constantly lose connection quickly for short bursts.

Clearing cache doesn't work. There are other more detailed threads about this, none with a solution other than I saw a few people reported having luck with CM9.

I already picked up Shadowgun, World of Goo, and Dead Space all for $0.49 each! What a killer deal. Almost bought Shadowgun for $4.99 the last couple days.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shawn_230:
Thanks for the info.

I'm really hating the whole Google Play thing though. It makes sense to spearate books, videos and music from apps but Market was cool for apps alone.

Play Store sounds like its trying too hard if you ask me. Market was a cool name, so was the old logo... this whole branding is lame as junk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Found this too after posting. Adding to OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I'm not feeling it either. "Google Play" doesn't sound like a unifying platform. It sounds like a specific service. I would have greatly preferred "Google Market". I understand why they're trying to make it less of an "Android" thing and more of a Google property, but I think Play was a bad choice. Using a verb to describe a store doesn't make sense. You don't play books. And you don't play all apps either (unless you consider entering calendar events "play").

me: "Hey check out this app!"

them: "where did you get it?"

me: "from Google Play."

Guys, looking for your feedback on what apps/packages are safe to remove/freeze/disable on the stock AT&T ROM. There are going to be plenty of people who want to root but not go custom ROM, including me for probably a few weeks/month for things to shake out.

I'll update this post with items which are known to be safe to disable, but looking for feedback from you guys. I'm a Samsung newb, my previous phone is a Nexus One. Thanks!

Please provide as much info as possible so people can disable in their favorite way.. Some use TiBu, some remove/rename in /system/app, some pm disable.

Tethering Manager (enable wifi tether)

am about to buy a new phone and am confused between samsung galaxy s ii htc one s and xperia s

and what's better htc sense 4 .touchwiz 4 or sony UI(idk wut it's called)?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] GalaxyS2R:
TBh it is about personal preferrence. Th one s so far has no reviews as its only just been announced, the sgs2 has been on the market nearly a year so you should know about that.

So far everyone who has the SXS (sony xperia s) has positive views overall about the one.

for me the most important things are

more than 16gb memory availble on the phone directly (not via cloud etc)

good battery life

good audio quality in headphones

good loud speaker

the ability to take pics when i am in a phone call or when the battery is under 15% (a thing which samsung phones do not let you do) htc and sony do though.

and the SXS meets all of these, so thats why I have ordered one and cannot wait for it to arrive.

I prefer sony's UI and HTC sense over touch wiz

it also depends on how desperate you are for a new phone i mean you could wait for the one s to come out which is about another month ad try the handsets for yourself but from reviews i have read and user experiences you can't go wrong with the SXS and plus it is quite cheap aswell.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soudy1994:
What about the touch buttons ?

some ppl say that they r annoyin
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dibdin:
I have heard that they need a firm press and are hard to find, but after a little time you will get use to them.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] augie7107:
Exactly right. They are easy to find but it seems they react after you move your finger away, not as you touch them.

They are annoying at first, but they are easy to get used to.

and i see that my galaxy s is 2mm wider than SXS is it hard to type in portrait mode?

P.S i got pretty thick finger :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] GalaxyS2R:
I do not have mine yet still waiting or it to be delivered but I have seen a dummy model of it in my local phones 4 u and i have spent a while comparing its size to the arc s dummy, galaxy s 2 dummy, droid razr dummy, htc sensation xe dummy and tbh the phone isnt that big for me the droid razr is horrid its very thin yes but is so tall and wide and it only has a 4.3 inch screen I mean it doesnt need to be that big for a 4.3inch screen.

the SXS just isnt that big imo and I mean no one really complains the the sensation/sensation xe is like 11+mm thick which is thicker than the 10.6mm SXS.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] augie7107:
Keyboard is very accurate.

I have not experience any lag at all. Web page rendering is fairly quick also.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ajftl:
I have to say the touch buttons are a bit difficult to get use to. I mean not big deal but it can bother people. Sound quality using headphones good. I like beats audio. And I think beats audio has a bit more punch on mid and highs. The xperia s has plenty of bass ...camera its amazing. The one x and s comes with great cameras too. Other than that I think its a good phone

Hi, I've noticed with ICS Roms the video playback is very jerky and low quality compared to GB which could play the same video files smoothly. I am talking about a 720p movie but I get the same thing with the recorded videos from the phone's camera.

Any ideas as to why this is and how it can be improved?

I'm currently running Insert Coin 5.1.1, Sensation XE, latest firmware 3.32.

PS I've also noticed the fruit ninja seems kind of pixelated on ICS so i'm guessing it's a general graphics issue with the whole OS.

I was just browsing around and saw that theres an app called System Tuner that tells you if the second core is running...found out that the second core on my phone was disabled!

So it's probably a kernel issue rather than ICS issue. (can't remember whether i chose OC Kernel or Stock)

For the past 2 days, I have had no 3G or 4G network connectivity on my Rezound. I'm located in the Raleigh, NC area.

I called Verizon Sunday night after realizing it wasn't going away. They did the usual "check this setting, reboot your phone" BS and said that it looked like it wasn't a phone issue (esp since I got a brand new replacement from Asurion a week ago), so they escalated it.

Verizon's Twitter support says sit tight, cases can take up to 5 days. 5 days without ANY data coverage is BS.

Anyone else having issues? I find it hard to believe that my phone alone is effected in the entire Triangle.

i understand..... in my country its 1:20am
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] luiseteyo:
Hey there, @Thefrankenstain , could you help me? I am trying to make some tests.

I have modified the updater-script of KPULite, editing first lines with the name of the rom and adding some lines at the end to introduce another kernel to the rom:

delete_recursive("/data/local");
delete_recursive("/data/dalvik-cache");
delete_recursive("/cache");

assert(package_extract_file("customize/vurrut/boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));

(is this an example of what I have to write or do I have to write exactly this?)

Then I added the normalboot.img of the kernel renamed to boot.img and deleting the stock one. I also have edited the build.prop with the other I uploaded the other day to kpu thread (with density corrected to 240) and I will start theming if it works. My question is...

The only thing I have to do is to zip it? Do I have to do anything more or just make a zip which contains META-INF, system, boot.img, etc...? Can I flash that zip in CWM?

Thank you!, great tutorial man!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TheFrankenstain:
For install kernel need add this:

Kernel to put in ROM folder, next to system, META-INF, and other folders

delete_recursive("/data/local");
delete_recursive("/data/dalvik-cache");
delete_recursive("/cache");
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));

You need pack to zip META-INF, System, boot.img and other folders.

Output zip need copy to sd card and flash in CWM
