[myTouch 4G General] Nicgraner:
The adb part is true, the reasoning though is HTC dev unlock only unlocks part of the bootloader, I'm not sure about the specifics but I know it unlocks the recovery partition which allows you to flash cwm
[myTouch 4G General] Jack_R1:
HTCDev unlocks the boot partition (and possibly recovery partition too) for fastboot flashing ONLY. It doesn't unlock them for anything else. So even though it lets you install recovery, you can't flash kernels (boot.img) from it - you HAVE to do it from fastboot.

For non-frequent-flashers, that are familiar enough with their PC to set up fastboot environment, this solution might be good enough.

I don't like it, because I prefer to have the ability to do things fully from the phone.
[myTouch 4G General] jjbadd385:
Jack R1 is absolutely right...I made the mistake of doing it the HTC way, and I have to flash the boot.img with fastboot. But to add to that, I also have been trying to reverse what the HTC method has done, and alot of the methods are not working properly. So plz listen to them and DO NOT unlock via HTC. Its way to easy doing it xda way, something I learned after the fact...

Hi all,

In an attempt to install FXP111 I discovered that the kernel didn't work in the worst way. Now I can't reboot into fastboot mode again to install another kernel.

Help me and thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Turn it off, hold down VOLUME UP and connect USB cable.

If blue LED lights up, your phone is in fastboot mode.

Hi,

I have samsung Omnia Pro, which i tried to flash however after flashing was complete, the phone is not working that is, the imei number is showing 00000000 and the phone is unable to pick any service provider.

What should be the possible cause for this?

Windows Phone running WM 6.1 standard, purchased and used in India, bearing Airtel sim.

Also, can anyone tell me where to get the customized ROM upgrade for Omnia Pro which would work in this case?
[General Questions and Answers] juzz86:
You will need to find an RUU and go back to stock, get everything fixed, then start over. I couldn't find an awful lot for the Omnia Pro, but it is a lovely phone.

Good luck! :)

If you miss the Prime why did you sell it?

If you really miss it why don't you just buy another one? :)

I sold it cause I'm the guy buys electronics every time something new comes out. I bought a tf101 and as soon as the tf201 was available I bought. and I'm really fighting off the urge to by another one

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garyf:
Restoring all green items in Titanium Backup will not restore call logs.

Restoring all items (green and red in the batch) will restore call logs.

I am trying to find the smallest group of red items in the titanium batch restore system data batch that will bring the previously stored call logs into a new flash.

There is at least one red item that is necessary for titanium to successfully restore call logs but I have found it very difficult to figure out what it is.

All green items plus phone 1.0 (which is red) will not restore the call logs.

In a related question, is there a way to list all of the system settings that are stored by Titaniumbackup? That way I might be able to google some and figure out exactly what they are storing.

sms backup+ seems to have an option for backing call logs to gmail. Trying it now, it is far far slower than titaniumbackup is, and if it is possible to just use TB, I'd rather that than send all of my call logs to the cloud rather than storing them on my sd card.

Another question, are there red items that are especially dangerous to restore? Which system settings are the most likely to cause problems such as freezing and force closes?

I'd imagine that it is possible to deselect the worst red settings while keeping the harmless ones and that it would be possible to restore call logs that way.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjben:
I havr only read your first sentence. I don't feel like reading all this.

There's an app for that. Called call log bak or something like that. I'm sure if you search the market Google will be good enough to present it to you.

sent from my secret underground bunker
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garyf:
Sorry. I know reading is hard for some people. It's OK.

The apps I've found in the market don't back call logs to the SD card but to your google account. I'd rather find an alternative.

Edit:

Call Logs Backup and Restore does backup to and restore from the sd card. An apology is in order.

I still would rather do it with tb if that's possible. If anyone has any information it would be appreciated.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
I was sure just restoring data from logsprovider restored call logs.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garyf:
That's probably it. Logsprovider is one of the red settings that I've not been checking when restoring to a new rom.

Next flash I'll test it out, see if it gets the call logs and also if it causes any noticeable problems.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inq8us:
Thank you!

I found this thread searching the forums, as I was trying to find a way to restore my call logs using TB after flashing. After restoring the data for logsprovider, the call logs came back. Thank you so much for this info!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockcruze:
migration in titanium backup

Use the migrate option in restoration settings.

Most probably the batch operation skips some system related data.

Correct me if i am wrong.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BratLemi:
Hi,

on my xperia X8 i was changing ROM's to test them and i was using GingerDX for a while. It was good, everything was working like a charm. Then my friend poked me with CM9. This one

As noted in that thread i needed nAa 11 kernel that i installed (correct if Install is wrong term). Kernel was installed nicely. CM ROM from that thread was working nicely, as stated camera and wifi don't work. But i also don't have network. My SIM card is locked by provider, i enter passkey and i get standard unlock message. That's OK and it proceed to home screen. Then i notice that i don't have network signal and i got SIM icon on my status bar (as noticed in Pic's).

So firstly, to see what is what:

I guess my phone is bricked, i bricked it lots of times and fixed with SEUS.

CWM is 5.0.1.2 and also xrecovery (i can't remember version)

I put another kernel, something "linux" something...

After "IDK what not" i tried S1tool, SEUS again and again and again and still nothing. I manage to take it back to stock rom with nAa kernel, nothing. Stock ROM with stock kernel, nothing... On stock ROM 2.1 i get to unlock SIM, do that and it just shows status bar, no menu, no widgets, no home screen, not even launcher. On status bar: SIM icon, signal icon (empty), battery ofc.

On that CM9 ROM i can do everything but still no network and WiFi don't work as mentioned and stated in Luke's thread.

So i cant go on nor back...

I'm working on phone while i write this and i have no clue how i made it to work... :D

It's fixed, on stock rom but network is working.

So, i wanted to ask you how to fix it but now i want to ask:

What did i do to make it not working? and

HOW did i fixed it?

I've been working on it for like 20 hours and i have no idea what did what and when.

If you need some pictures i will be happy to post them for more information on the problem.

anyone of you running stock skeptical of updating?

"why would anyone ever be affraid of updating?" you might ask - well, one time I updated my beloved EVO and lost my voice to text feature (well, in ambient noise settings, I could no longer utilize it's awesome feature - pissed me off!).

where can I find info on the posed & pressed updates my phone sends me? furthermore, does anyone use these que'd updates - and what do you think?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] great2c4me:
BTW, (wow does this guy ever shut up?)

I am experiencing quite the atrociously glitchy handset with this new hyped up razr. it freezes and crashes on me way more than my evo ever did. granted with a smaller processor, it was to be expected from time to time. however, I thought that this razr would let me multitask like my wife hopped up on ritalin... simply not the case.

this update it's been prompting, is it supposed to run smoother? not crash. can I watch a youtube video, close it out, jump on pandora and have no problems. that's the gist of it. it fails every time. even if I try and play music internally. pos I tell ya!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] onslaught86:
If you're currently running 2.3.5, it's definitely worth updating to 2.3.6. The shipped ROMs are... Bad.

Good news is, unlike the EVO, it's very simple to flash back to a previous version using Fastboot if you really don't like an update. Doesn't even wipe data in the process.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] IP IHI II IL:
I updated with the leak weeks ago, and couldn't be happier. I was too much of a flashaholics with my EVO to have ever gotten an OTA, but my RAZR has stayed stock outta the box.

Important note about Dead Boot HTC Desire HD 1,5G

Hello Guys ,

I got one HTC DESIRE HD some days ago before this post .

Phone goes Completely dead after low Battery .

now nothing more: Not on to Bootloader Mode , not dectected by Pc .

that mean Bootloader is dead . first reflex sure everyone will say Jtag solution . yes you are not wrong , only Jtag can help . but for this one at this time . I think not Jtag box that we usualy use for repair boot can solve it yet . ( correct me if wrong )

in my case I have Ort Jtag box .wich couldn't solved I get Density=0 with ORT. some said that Density=0 was HArdware fault . I can confirm hardware is 100% innocent . I tried old ORT JTAG ( 1.66/1.70/1.71 ) version on different windows Version result 0% .

so I thought to go somewhere to take information about this Phone Boot .

I was in two differents box forum : Riff & Medusa .

In Riff box Section waaoow !! many body have this same problem but none couldn't solved , box make Resurection job complete but Phone keep dead .

cause : error in Boot file it seem that the boot file is for inspire that why it stuck dead after job . ( Riff dev can give much details )

to Medusa : there I got a little confident in one post where I seen body say to have repaired his Htc Desire HD with Medusa . it's great if yes . but I seen too most of post where body occured error while repair operation handset keep dead . under waiting trust test report .

it will be best if software dev make beta test before released Update .

yes you all want to leak world first solution , that is nice , but sometime late out but best is good if it work correctly

that will help them to improve software . good you make update but better if update work correctly as you show in update .

Conclusion

No one beetwen these 3 software support 100% Desire HD Bootloader yet .

so be prudent when you ugrade HD rom otherwise = buy new phone lol!

read all tuto before start your rom/radio upgrade or Downgrade .

Correct if you know a software wich repair it

waiting Jtag software Developer Feedback , come clear this one ...

I've been using a program called Playon to stream news and comedy central to my xbox and droid for years and it works great...so i got to thinking..i wonder if it works on my kindle fire running the 2-24 cm9 rom? I installed the playon app from the market..then i installed mx video player from the market (don't know if it's really needed but i think it runs better than the stock video player) and after a couple of minutes i was watching netflix on my cm9! With some router tweaks i can now watch my shows anywhere there is wifi too! The picture is of course not high def but it plays pretty good considering there is no hw accel being used.
