HBOOT-2.11.0000

Oct 6 2011, 15:43:22

Ok so here is my story. I flashed CleanROM ICSE 3.5 along with the kernel. Had issues so want to flash back to CleanROM GBE 1.7.5. So it flashed in recovery and I flashed the kernel in HBoot just like I've been doing, but the phone wouldn't boot all the way. It would hang at the final stage of the boot animation. So some were I found a thread about not being able to boot up after flashing ICS ROM. It had a boot.img to flash, well I flashed it and the phone booted right up YAY! Problem solved right? Well not exactly. Now I can't flash any kernels. When I flash the kernel in HBoot it looks like it works but it doesn't flash. I go back to about in the phone and it still has the HTC kernel. Anyone know thats up? Do I need to relock and flash the RUU then unlock again or something? Any help would be a bonus. Thanks guys.

Here is the thread I used to get the phone to boot again after ICS:

I only did step 5 and pushed the boot.img.

Go to the development section and use the cleanflash tool.

Thanks that sorta helps but how do I get back to being able to flash PH98IMG in hboot? Plus most of the kernels are now zImages, no boot.img.

Edit:

Ok that seems to have worked. What I did was use the above tool and flashed "[Kernel]Unsecured, OverClocked, SmartAssV2, and Voltage Control[New Links 01.27.12]" once that was complete I was able to go back and flash the PH98IMG.zip like I was doing before. Thanks guy..
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
That is extremely strange but there is no reason you should need to re-lock in order to flash a kernel.

I think there may be a mix up in the way the kernel is being flashed (other than in fastboot). There's two ways...

1. A PH98IMG.zip that contains the kernel (boot.img) and android-info.txt. This is safe to flash in the bootloader.

2. A kernel which uses a script needs a .zip to

first

be flashed in recovery which then places a PH98IMG.zip on your sdcard. After the .zip is flashed in recovery, the script reboots the phone to bootloader where the PH98IMG.zip is flashed.

Notice these are two ways to achieve the same thing and this could possbily be the mix up. Also, be careful about leaving the PH files on your sdcard because they can ruin your day if you try to reboot into bootloader because the phone will keep trying to update.

I hope this helps clear things up a bit.
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
Thanks ya i've been flashing them right along with PH98IMG.zips. Then for some reason it just wouldn't flash, no matter how many i tried. Using the CleanFLASH seems to have cleared it up. In other words using flastboot flash boot boot.img would have gotten the job done.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Natic256:
After use for a period of time my screen will start to create these dead spots and it prevents the phone from detecting my finger in that specific area how can i fix this without restarting my phone everytime this occurs?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Wulamoc:
I have this issue also, however it is very uncommon for me and simply locking the screen and unlocking it has resolved the issue.
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
Natic, your problem is common and known since gingerbread i believe. Wulamoc is correct, the easiest fix is just cycle your screen on/off with the power button as described.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dylando808:
hello,

i've also been having issues with "dead spots" on my Inspire's touch screen. it's about 1 centimeter wide and runs down the entire left side of the touchscreen. it pretty much renders typing in portrait mode useless because my E, S, & Z keys cannot be pressed because they are in the dead zone. luckily i can still type in landscape so it isn't too bad.

what is really weird is when i use the phone normally and i swipe over the dead spot the screen jumps because it's not registering over that small area. BUT when i swipe my finger across the dead zone REALLY fast back and forth, the touches register! i've tested this using an app from the Play Store called "Touch Test".

Just so you know i have rooted my phone and flashed a few ROMs already, i've seen in other posts that this sometimes happens on certain ROMs but the dead spots are usually alleviated with a reboot, turning the screen off, turning the device into landscape mode or as a last resort wiping the device. I've tried all of those and to no avail. i've used CM7 and aospX, but the problem started when i was on CM7.

i'm hoping that this is just something to do with software and i may be able to fix it myself without taking the phone apart and replacing anything. i don't have the dexterity for that :P i am already out of warranty and none of the current phones on AT&T interest me at the moment so i wanted to make this phone last as long as i could..

any type of advice on how i could fix this would be appreciated..

thanks in advance

[HTC Inspire 4G] ST3ALTHPSYCH0:
I'd say that the part where you're in luck is that a lot of people are always after the new thing. You should start seeing Inspires on eBay and Craigslist at an awesome discount. Good luck to you, I'm in the same boat, I honestly can't see moving away from the Inspire until AT LEAST upgrade time.

Don't laugh, I still have my LG eXpo.

OK, you can laugh.

Disclaimer: This is not advice. It is just something that fell from between my ears.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dylando808:
I have been contemplating getting another inspire. But I did want to spend as little money as possible. (I'm very cheap lol) but it's probably ly my best choice :/
[HTC Inspire 4G] biglittlegato:
You won't find a better at&t phone for what the inspire goes for. Replacing the screen could be cheaper but then again you might destroy it. You could sell it on eBay as a fixer and put what you get toward a working replacement.

Disclaimer: This is not advice. It is just something that fell from between my ears.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dylando808:
Replacing it myself isn't an option for me. I am almost certain that doing that will end up with disaster. I was hoping it was a software fix, where wiping the phone or factory resetting would work.. But if all else fails I could tough it out and wait for the AT&T One XL..

Tried this method with no luck. my phone died in the process. And from what i read i am now the proud owner of a paper weight unless i have the programming cable to charge in fastboot mode.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sh4itan:
i had the same problem, but could access the reboot option while pressing VOL-UP + VOL-DOWN. Maybe this helps you to access normal boot operation and load the phone while running?

if not, don't you have the original cable of the charger? this will change your battery low state to battery ok... did this while having completly flash failure.

i hope i could help you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ybrian:
Yeah I am able to access that menu with the volume buttons but it doesn't let me load anything just gives the errors. And I do have the original charger but it has not charged the phone at all. Still says battery low cannot program.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
You razr are soft-bricked. This means you cannot program or charge the battery.

The solution is to use a 'factory cable' (will post a link here) to flash a new rom on it. After loading system files you'll be able to charge it again.

Here it's

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Shinare:
I dont have a problem right now but this is good to know for the future. I do have my original charger and cable. If I do have this problem where it is reporting battery low I can charge up my phone and then flash?

Some are saying it will report battery low even with a full battery in fastboot mode. Will this "original charger cable" bypass that or something?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
Read my previous post. You'll not be able to charge razr with battery low status in a danaged system phone. Got it?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Shinare:
Could I take the battery out of my daughter's razr and put it in mine and flash?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sexywacko:
i guess you could if you opened the razr up. remember not a very easy battery cover to remove.

school boy error flashing with low battery!! know your surroundings :) without sounding too patronizing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mobzter:
he's just asking if ur able to charge phone using original cables when battery state just shows as low.

anyhu yes u can do in that state.. i usually go into fastboot mode.. but best to use mains socket for charging!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mobzter:
u can try but would take time to get the cover off but then ud require the right tools to help release the battery! not easy task but there is some website out there if u decide to go ahead with it.. prob need to search for 'droid razr disassembling' on google!

hope it helps!!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sh4itan:
i really don't know exactly if this will work on every razr with every delivered original cable + charger. but i was an idiot to try a flash with 20% battery life remaining... after this failed i got battery low state... plugged the phone to the charger, it booted to flash failure fastboot menu with telling me battery is low.

so i just tried to flash it via eternityprojects fla**** batch... everytime battery low... besides, i tried it with original cable, but plugged some cable between charger (and even pc) and the original cable...

but after i just plugged it to my notebook only via original delivered cable several(!!!) times, it showed me 'battery ok'...

was in apprentice class at the time and screamed as happy as is was :D

flashed perfectly ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ybrian:
Thanks for the help! Just made the cable and ran the razr utility and the phone is now back to stock and currently charging! :)

[Quantum General] NJspike:
Hi there,

Just a few days ago i bought a LG Quantum, everything seem to be working fine until everyone told me why i didn't pickup their calls. I can make calls, the 3G it's working, I can receive sms, Wifi and BT working too.

It's SIM unlocked and working on Telcel Mexico (UMTS 850)
[Quantum General] quserdy:
have you tried to turn of your mobile data connection?

for edge and gprs: they are only capable of one thing at a time data or calls.

3g already does both.
[Quantum General] NJspike:
Yeah I tried that, I did downgrade to NoDo and now just shows "No Service", for a few seconds have service, I tried with another providers and shows the same behavior. Its not enough with the SIM unlocking? Maybe it doesnt have the XML of the provider or I must debrand? Anybody have an idea?

For the record, now im on movistar, with the sim working on a Samsung Focus shows "movistar", on the Quantum shows "movistar-movistar"
[Motorola Droid X2] ztotherad:
and i've come to the conclusion that I really do love the froyo icons, but I'd like to incorporate them into GB. is there a way to do this?
[Motorola Droid X2] theredvendetta:
Absolutely you could. You would need a Froyo zip to dissect. You would need to extract the icons from within the framework and rename them (if necessary) to match the corresponding ones within a Gingerbread zip, and replace the ones within the GB framework with the ones from Froyo. If you want, I can post screenshots when I get home.

By the way, Froyo is effing sweet.
[Motorola Droid X2] ztotherad:
yes, please post screenshots, that'd be awesome! Yes, Froyo is awesome, now if we only we could have a CM6 port for the ones that would like to stay on Froyo...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
Is there a way to get the phone to be recognized by the PC for drag'n drop functionality without using the on/off USB mass storage feature in the settings? I had this going for me when I intially bought the GNote where all I did was plug in the phone via USB and the PC saw it as a media device of some sort (I want to say it showed up as a camera or mp3 player). The phone also displayed "MFT" or something (not 100% sure) at the top left corner in the notification bar. After rooting and freezing some things, I have since lost this ability and now have to go into the settings and toggle the USB mass storage feature.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BlackZenith:
Ha! The laptop is actually decent, its just my company's and it is locked down pretty tight... Hence the reason why I don't need it showing up as a mass storage device when I plug it in ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blnypny:
I'm still able to do it after rooting. I used the mass storage once and by default it disables the USB debug option. Go into Settings-Location and Security and uncheck Disable USB debugging mode. That should bring it back.
