[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Microbot2:
ICS

I'm on stock Ice Cream Sandwich, Bootloader relocked.

---------- Post added at 08:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------

I am still a little confused about s-on/s-off.

How do you know when to set security to on or off? I had security on when I replaced the Kernel. Is it off for the ROM flash? Or is it just for flashing the bootloader? That seems Logical.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] megatronisabeast:
Do you mean unlocked or relocked? Can't get s-off yet, it is being worked on. Unless your phone came with s-off it should say s-on. You should have your phone unlocked to flash a kernel or rom. No need to relock either unless you need to go back to stock ics using the ruu or ph39.img.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Microbot2:
It is Re-Locked. S-on. It came S-on.

S-off is for the bootloader, Right?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] megatronisabeast:
s off is to flash a radio. Don't need it to flash a kernel or custom ROM. You have to be unlocked when you flash a custom kernel or ROM.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Microbot2:
Thank you for clearing that up for me.

---------- Post added at 11:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 PM ----------

What governs a rom having a radio or not? I understand some do and some don't.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] megatronisabeast:
All roms have a radio. The difference is if you have s-off you can flash a different radio than what comes with your phone. With s-on you can't flash a different radio, only different roms and kernels. Also with s-on you can't flash a kernel in recovery.

hey, I had the same problem you had using the all in one with the CWM and the holicakes..can you tell me what I need to do to fix this? I am not sure what things I need to do from the video you looked at..Please help thanks

RUU

The same thing happened to me, what i did was i found the ruu zip for my carrier and i flashed that, it basically sets everything back to when you got your phone out of the box except if your bootloader is unlocked it will most likely turn it to relocked but that seemed to work for me!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] git-sims:
I used the all in one tool kit and everthing went well. I tried to flash stock kernel and I got the white screen so I got it in fast boot and then got holicakes 2.6.35.14. Still on the white screen. From the video I do believe I have to flash the kernel then the ROM. I am just stock on how to flash the kernel. On the lluminatii site the ROM download is being updated so if anyone could upload me the ROM and Kernel that would be great.

---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

Correction. I'm on the stock kernel now by using the all in one tool kit. Flashed it twice. I can flash any RUU Rom that is cingular right to get my phone working again?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
I don't think you can run the gb ruu with a ics hboot
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] git-sims:
So what do you recommend I do?

---------- Post added at 02:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ----------

I'm downloading this RUU: RUU_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_Cingular_US_3.26.502.56_Radio_3.02.4740.14_3

Could I just flash this ROM since im on the stock kernel and everything be good from then on?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
Yeah you will be ok with that one the ruu will flash kernel and Rom but it will factory reset your phone making it like out if the box with ics make sure your bootloader is locked before running the ruu then put your phone in fastboot USB mode hook to your computer and run. The ruu

This is for att phones if you are not att it won't work
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] git-sims:
So when i connect my phone lock the bootloader then flash the rom?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
Yep
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] git-sims:
Sounds easy enough. Ill try it on my lunch. So once its flashed i just start over? It wont be rooted and CWM is gone?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
You got it it will be like you got the phone from att today
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] git-sims:
That did the trick. Thanks a ton!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jerrycoffman45:
your welcome glad you fixed it
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] baw3510maverick:
identical issue

Agree with earlier post. The all in one toolkit seems easy enough, but it is NOT idiot (ME) proof. I rooted my Inspire last year thanks to a video that WAS idiot proof.

Same issue I'm dealing with right now HTC logo stuck. I'll read this thread. funny i searched forums 8 different ways and started a new help thread, and jsut stumbled on this one.

Thanks to all the smart guys who love helping the rest of us!!! :D

Can´t enter Recovery

Hello

I have a problem with my HTC Velocity, its stuck in hboot and when i try enter recovery ended up with the white HTC screen and looping ....

Needed help and if possible step by step ...

Thanks in advance

Jorge
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
HTC boot loop

Did you recently flash a new ROM? Is your phone S-ON or S-OFF? What did you do before this happened?

EDIT:

I'm going to assume you're S-ON and recently flashed a new ROM to your Vivid through recovery. When you flash a new ROM, you must flash the "boot.img" file located in the rom ZIP file. You should be doing this using FASTBOOT (google search, or even search these forums) on your computer with your Vivid hooked up.

I recall hearing that sometimes the stuck HTC logo is due to the wrong boot.img file being on the device.

-The Vivid should be in hBoot, then select Fastboot; this enables the device's USB.

-On your computer side, have the fastboot files in the same directory as your "boot.img" you extracted from the ROM zip file.

(the files should be "fastboot.exe", "AdbWinApi.dll", and i believe "adb.exe")

-open a command prompt window in that directory (On my Windows 7, I do this by Shift+right click, and it's an option)

if shift+right click does not work, open command prompt, then type "cd <directory>", where you replace <directory> with the full path to your fastboot directory

-MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT BOOT FILE IN THAT DIRECTORY

-in the command prompt window, type: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

(we are executing fastboot.exe, then we are using the "flash" option on the partition "boot", and the file we are flashing is boot.img)

IF YOU DID NOT FLASH ANY CUSTOM ROM

google "htc logo stuck vivid"

[HTC Titan] Devil Boy:
I recently switched from Blackberry 9700 (Which I loved and still do) to HTC Titan. It a huge change for me (Both good and bad). So far I am trying to get use to the device and going through learning curves.

I have couple of question that I hope someone here can help me with.

Is there a way to have the phone stay off when you I am charging the phone at night? I turn off the phone before I go to sleep and want it to stay off till I wake up in the morning. When the phone is being charged using the wall charger there is no way to turn it off and it has to stay on.

Also how can I activate the LED indicator to flash when I have a new text, new email or even missed call? I would like to have that option as when I in meeting I can put my phone in silent.

Also the OS version on the phone is showing as 7.10.7720.68 and I was reading this forum and people are on version 8.XXXXX and was wondering how do I upgrade to a highest OS version.

Thank you in advance for all your help.
[HTC Titan] kwiggington:
The led flashes by default you can update through the zune software or wait till its pushed to your phone

as far as staying on i dont think it can

[HTC Titan] Devil Boy:
Sorry for the stupid question, but do I download the Zune software on my phone? I dont see where I can download the software on my phone.

Thanks again.
[HTC Titan] crmb:
No unfortunately you can not power off your phone during charge.

Only thing you can do is use the airplane mode to disable network connection.

The LED will blink (green) for missed call but not for sms or e-mail (i hope they will include this in future update, i have not idea why this is not possible).

Zune is an application for your computer (not your phone). After you installed it, it will start when you plug your phone by USB to your computer.

If a phone update is available, Zune will automatically ask you if you want to update.

If you brought your phone unbranded (not simlocked) you should be able to update in a short time after update release (try to plug your phone to your computer every couple of days)

If you got your phone "branded" from a carrier, then a delay can occur. (Because the carrier decide if the update should be deployed or not.)

The last official revision is 7.10.8XXX something
[HTC Titan] drupad2drupad:
You don't need to plug your phone to your computer to check for updates. You get a pop up notification on your phone OTA whenever the update is ready. You then plug in your phone to Zune.

You MUST install Zune to your computer as that is the only way you can transfer tons of pics, music and videos from PC to Phone and vice versa. Plus you get updates as mentioned.
[HTC Titan] Devil Boy:
Thank you all for your input and our answers.

I wish HTC and ATT would start working on these simple issues or requests. I think lots of people out there want to turn off their phone at night and charge it while its off.

The blinking LED is a must for everyone as we need to be notified of new texts, new emails, new calender notification and so on. I think adding that option this by HTC is not going to be a problem as we already have the LED flashing available for some notification(s).
[HTC Titan] ROCOAFZ:
I'm glad mine does not blink or it would be blinking all the time. I sync hotmail and exchange, and every hour it checks 4 other email accounts..
[HTC Titan] MaruFas:
+1 for blinking for missed call and sms, but not for emails.

Also was very strange at first that I cannot charge while powered off, I think it would be better to train new battery in a such way.
[HTC Titan] crmb:
If you synchronize many (or "regular") mailbox, of course the blinking should be switchable.

But if you have a dedicated email address for your phone (with push enabled) like i do, blinking would be useful (like for sms)

[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
Best source for the stock recovery.img is from the official RUU leak.

Best mirror I've used goo-inside.me for all the stock HTC RUU files. All software versions are mirrored:

For CDMA versions: http://goo-inside.me/ruu/shooter/

For GSM versions: http://goo-inside.me/ruu/shooteru/

Preferable to grab the PG86IMG.zip version of the RUU. Open up the PG86IMG.zip file, inside there should be a firmware.zip file. Open up the firmware.zip file and there should be the recovery.img file.

This above steps are baesd on HTC's packaging of the files.

Once you have the recovery.img file, a simple method of flashing would be: fastboot flash recovery c:\stock-recovery.img

Hope that helps!

Verizon finally replaced my revo with a bionic. I was tired of the revo screwing up so I said yes to it. Is the bionic any good? On their website it says Android 4.0 upgradable so I'm assuming I can upgrade to ICS on it or is that just for a later time?

I believe the bionic was actually a higher price point when the revo was still $199 or are they about similar phones?
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
The bionic is far better and has more development for it. No official ics yet though.

Hi,

Hope someone can help as I've exhausted Google trying to find a solution. I've tried to flash my Milestone 2 but it failed big time and now wont boot just shows the motorolo logo. I'm trying to use RDS Lite to push a stock rom back on the phone but every time it tells me it can't switch to fastboot mode and i've tried taking out the battery and holding varous key combinations whilst putting the battery back but wont go in to fastboot mode.

I've also tried to get into the recovery menu but I get as far as a white triangle with and orange exclamation mark and a little android, but again every key combination i've tried doesn't seem to work.

If I could get either one to work I should be able to recover my phone and stop the wife from killing me :(

Have you tried going into download mode on your device and using odin to reflash the rom safely+get boot images etc just incase.

Also you should find if you extract the rom 5-4 packeages. Use them all if 4 but if 5 google it for i dont know. dont use one package unless told by person who gave you the rom. If that dosnt work do a factory reset/hard if factory wont work

[Milestone 2 General] sahilarora911:
You don't have to go into fast boot mode. There is no fast boot mode in MS2 unless you have a DEV phone.

You have to be in bootloader mode. The key combination for that is power + up arrow key.

Flash the sbf using RSDLite. If the phone does not boot. Go into android recovery using power + 'X' key. On the '!' mark and android bot screen, you need to press @ key (if you are on Froyo) or vol up + vol down (if you are on GB).

This will give the recovery menu. Wipe data and reboot. That should do it.
