[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
What software upgrade are you looking for? Sounds like you could just download a stock rom from the skyrocket dev section and flash that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
Software update feature that gets left behind in roms is just there because it wasn't removed it has no functionality.... If you're only looking to upgrade then just change Roms

rom download

No backup,I reset and wiped everything out.Now I have a Tmobile rom

sgh-t989 and no firmware or 4g.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droid512:
Seems like the obvious fix is to install a skyrocket 727 ROM or flash the correct att modem and kernel set on the ROM you're using

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
The first thing you're supposed to do is a backup as soon as you root. Anyways, there are stock zips and odins you can flash to get back to stock, or you can just flash the ucla or kj2 modem and whatever rom you are wanting.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jbb2388:
I've been happy using CM7 and have been away from the forum for over a month since last flashing CM9 0.0.2. However, it was a bit buggy so I re-flashed CM7. Was hoping someone could fill me in on the latest stuff on it without having to read the last 50 pages of the cm9 thread. :D Is the camera stable? It was working but had some bugs with it. What about 4G with any of the non-stock roms on the Photon? Thanks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MooseV2:
On Joker's CM9, still camera appears to work fine, but the camcorder isn't worth it. In 720p, there's HUGE lag on the screen (point it at something and it takes like 4 seconds for the picture to move). In 480p, it's all red&pink noise.

WiMax is still broken with unlocked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ergo14:
Hello,

I wasnt sure we can remove all the junk/non junk apps without rooting the phone and i accidently removed "top contacts" widget app from my xperia s, i dont want to flash new rom to it already. So if someone would be so kind to post apk or a backup of this application i would be grateful.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ergo14:
any idea?

I have some snapshots of all apk's for xperia S, but im not sure which of them provides "top contacts" (favourite/starred contacts) widget, can someone check in titanium backup how its called ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] joachim.tw:
Top contacts

apk name: com.sonyericsson.androidapp.smart
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Radders:
You can get it from Play Store. Search for 'Top Contacts'.

Hi, i see this:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-2.0.8.0000 8G XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

And i can go further, if i insert a stock rom in SD rename to leoimg.nbh it is stuck on "loading..."

any help?

I try to flash hspl but nothing happens for hours....
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
what version of hspl did you flash?

an what type hd2 do you have(tmous or eu)????
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've tried 2.08 and above... but always stuck on animation of bar going left and right, i left it for 2 hours, but nothing happens!

plz help!! Is my hd2 bricked? :(
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Don't think so, from what I know you have to flash the wrong radio ver on tmous handsets to brick them...

Have a read here..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1090783

Have to go out now back later..
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've downloaded the unified tool, but nothing works!
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Better use the hd2 nand tookit (link in above link)

what happens when you power on an hold the vol down button...do you get a three-color screen?
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
yes with those infos:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-2.0.8.0000 8G XE

MicroP(LED) 0x05

so? :(
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Try the hd2 nand toolkit and select install hspl and follow instructions.

When you plug usb into phone it should say usb on the tri-color screen.
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
I've tried. The bar of loading goes around but The hspl won't install. I will try again now
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
The same again. Nothing change. :(
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
so it recognised the phone tried to install, and did it give an error..??

What version did you select ?
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i tried 2.08 hspl and others, but stuck on bars loading back and forward and even after two hours nothing happens... :( i'm desperate...
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Only other thing I can think of is check that your anti-virus is not blocking it , actually turn it off and try again....:confused:
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've disabled real time protection and tried...nothing.

i dunno what to do more...
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Disable completely ...to make sure..
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've a mac at home and i'm trying now with a vmware machine... with no AV, tomorrow i'll try on a laptop with wxp installed...

But now, no success with the wxp vmware, without AV. Same behaviour of a "direct" wxp installation.
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
should active sync accept incoming usb connections?
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
To install any SPL or HSPL there must be any SPL version from this list on your device:

SPL 1.42.0000

SPL 1.62.0000

SPL 1.66.0000

SPL 2.07.0000

SPL 2.08.0000

SPL 2.10.0000

SPL 3.03.0000

Otherwise the installation will fail!

First go to here to download HSPL 4. I suggest HSPL 4 because it supports all SPL versions that are out right now including SPL 3.03.0000 and SPL 3.10.0000. Remember you can also use HSPL 4 to flash back to your original SPL. Once you have HSPL 4 downloaded use a zip program like WinZip, WinRar, or Win7 to extract the .exe file for the DFT installation utility to a location of your choosing on you computer. Take and put your HD2 manually into bootloader by holding the volume down button down while powering on your HD2. When you see the multicolor bootloader screen on your HD2 connect it to your computer via USB cable. If it is the first time you have connected it to your computer while in bootloader you will have to give it a minute or two for the drivers to install. When you see the Serial in the white bar of bootloader change to USB you have a HTC USB Sync connection between your HD2 and your computer. This is very important, make sure you have the latest ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center version (depending on what version of Windows your computer uses) installed on your computer as it has the updated USB drivers for the HTC USB Sync connection. Go to here to download these. When you see the USB in the white bar of bootloader right click on the HSPL 4 utility and select run as administrator. Follow the on screen instructions and select the desired HSPL version when it prompts you for what version you want to install. If you want to flash MAGLDR to install NAND Android or Windows Phone 7 you have to select 2.08 HSPL. When you see “We hacked it” on your HD2 screen you click yes on your computer in the box on the screen to confirm you see “We hacked it” then click close and you have flashed HSPL to your HTC HD2.

This is from the link I gave you earlier.

Read it carefully and follow the instructions to the letter. go to the original post for the links.

That's as far as I can go to help you..

Best of luck :)
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've got a 2.08.0000spl now... but i can't manage to flash a hspl...is the bootloader damaged or corrupted?
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
done the removal... when plugged again it automatically reinstalls drivers from activesync folder, is this correct? should i uninstall activesync too??
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
No.

Also try a different port on pc, and different cable if available :o
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
trying different port... nothing happens... now i try a different cable...
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
Same, bad, result, the phone stays on bootloader and nothing happens
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've done the same on two other pcs... always loading and no flash
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
When you say always loading what exactly is on the screen?, post a screenshot if you can...
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
its the gray screen that appears when you boot with volume down and have a leoimg.nbh on SD card, appears "Loading..." and that's it
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Before all this happened what rom were you running?

Try flashing a few different stock roms like the one you had on it that worked....

Format your card to fat32 file system using sd formatter v3.1 first get it here..https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/eula_windows/
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
before this it was on a 2.08 hspl and was running an ita stock rom, i tried to revert to a 2.08 and after that, bum, the phone is now in this state
[HD2 General] bigfilsing:
Just try with the SD card removed. HSPL doesnt need the SD card installed to work .

Good luck
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
Tried with SD card removed, same result... i guess if i may need a Jtag in this state... how much a Jtag repair should cost?
[HD2 General] bigfilsing:
have you tried with SD card removed and the reset button ??
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've tried with sd card removed and first reset button and even with battery off...
[HD2 General] bigfilsing:
so youre getting to the boot loader tri colour screen right ?

when you plug in the USB cable the word in the lower white section changes from "serial" to "USB" right ?

First things i would do is

1/ Make sure my PC isnt going into sleep mode / screen saver or similar

2/ Disable AV

3/ Remove the SD card

4/ Download a new copy of HSPL ( just to make sure your current one isnt corrupt

5/ Try a stock ROM flash from the HTC website download

Good luck
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
1/ Make sure my PC isnt going into sleep mode / screen saver or similar - DONE

2/ Disable AV - DONE

3/ Remove the SD card - DONE

4/ Download a new copy of HSPL ( just to make sure your current one isnt corrupt - DONE

5/ Try a stock ROM flash from the HTC website download - DONE

no success...
[HD2 General] bigfilsing:
so it simply wont flash anything at all ...not even a different radio...

im still not convinced its bricked but am kind of out of options ..sorry

i would try another PC or laptop as USB can react differently on different machines and of course make sure the phone is fully charged etc
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've tried 3 pcs.

one with windows 7 and two others with windows XP, same result.

How much a Jtag flash resurrection would cost?
[HD2 General] bib*oops:
About US$40-50, depending who you adress to...
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
i've the hd2 again with me... i've just updated mobile center drivers, attached... and now i try what you wrote...

i'll update asap
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
On the display i have "USB" but windows mobile center says "not connected"
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
Each spl or hspl version i choose, nothing happens...
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Can you see it in Windows Device Manager under mobile devices?
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
device not connected (accept usb connection is on)

but i can't see it if i use mtty,,,
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Not what I meant....... in windows DEVICE MANAGER .you know right click my computer go to properties and select device manager...
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
Oh sorry! Yes it is htc USB sync. Is this correct?
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
Yes as long as there are no exclamation marks or question marks on that entry..

It was just a thought...
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
Yes, its fully seen without marks or other... so? do you suppose its bricked?

thanks in advance
[HD2 General] shanman-2:
From what I know it's very hard to brick a EU HD2 and to brick a TMOUS HD2 you have to flash a wrong radio.

How did this problem occur?

It seems like a hardware problem to me, did it get dropped, was it heating up a lot before all this etc etc..:confused:

Just looking thru' this thread again I don't see what version of hspl you are using, try the one attached (HSPL4..).
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
None of this... the only thing is that from mtty NAND has a series of bad blocks and i cannot fix them even with a task 2a
[HD2 General] mrmcphisto77:
The technician called me and said its impossible to repair because even the part of the info where the imei is stored is deleted and cannot be rewritten.

how could this be possible? :O
[Motorola Droid 4] jy3ng4:
The default browser on the Droid 4 has three bookmarks that don't have a delete option: VZW Home, My Verizon, and Google. Is there a way to delete them? Via root access, perhaps?

EDIT: Just googled it and found the answer easily. Silly me. I downloaded Bookmarks Manager (free) which let me delete the locked bookmarks and then uninstalled it. Easy peasy.

Anyone using the samsung email app? Is it possible that it's really slow and unreliable? Got some massive problems with it...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
If you want to configure it for google mail, just use this setting, rather then auto.

Add account , type ID@gmail.com n pw

- select manual setting

- Microsoft active sync

- keep ID n PW field as it is in server field type, m.google.com

in next screen you will see push setting, select accroding your need

Hope it should work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sephi:
Thanks, but push is configured, it's just not working very well. It's slow and buggy. F.e. my phone just rang like it got an email but there wasn't one...also the status bar isn't updating properly. Worked much better on my HTC Desire overall. Is something wrong with my Note or is it just crappy samsung software?

I had trouble with the Gmail app, started about a week ago. It would not push mail. I had to manually refresh. Without a refresh, mail would arrive but very late.

I was considering a wipe, when all problems just went away. Last 2 days everything OK again. Maybe it was Gmail having trouble?
[Motorola Droid X2] trafalger888:

[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
You can jump to the milestone x2 port for 236.
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
okay, but what's the benefit of going to that build?

just curious
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Or when you die in pac-man. lol.

To the OP, as far as I know, there is not much benefit from going from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5. The 2.3.5 that is being used is a leaked version. Meaning someone discovered it before it was meant to be released (if it even will be released). THAT being said, the 2.3.5 that is being used is most likely an unfinished version and not much had gone into it by the time it was discovered. The official version that Motorola will release will most likely be more beneficial.
[Motorola Droid X2] trafalger888:
Right...I just wasn't sure what had been done with it if anything and how beneficial it is since there are a couple roms that are using it...just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything in my reading or anything g
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:

It does have the battery fix & vids are good, it could be equal to the mx2 if you are on /413 but not confirmed.

That is after you debloat!
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
The battery is not fixed in it, you need to flash the fix.

Camera and performance is way smoother, thats why me and nitro use it. On a dev level, its better imo. I think its better than 234 anyway. Also it fixes some app issues I was having. The networking is faster too.

[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
@skwoodwiva

Sorry man, the way the post is wrote it seemed misleading. I was just noting that the 235.zip for the Dx2 doesn't have the Bat Fix. No biggies, wasn't trying to harp or anything.

Easiest way is to pull out framework-res and twframework and push them to your system\framework folder. It would make it all stock. If you ever need to take it in you should Odin EL30 since FB15 is an unofficial leak.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Speedin07si:

[Nexus S General] davidboyd:
My son brought me his Nexus S 4g and told me that it doesn't work anymore. He says that he didn't do anything and that it just started doing this on its own. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When powered on, it quickly goes to the screen with the Google icon and a lock icon. It sits here for about 30 seconds, then reboots to the same thing. If I pull the battery and hold Vol Up and Power when inserting the battery I can get into Fastboot, but when I select Recovery or Reboot, I get the same Google screen.

When I gave him the phone, it was rooted with CWM recovery loaded and a ICS ROM running.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have been reading through threads all night long without finding much.
[Nexus S General] t1n0m3n:
Sounds to me like you need to begin the rooting process again at the "fastboot oem unlock" part. Since you probably don't have anything on your SD card, you might have to push a new recovery via fastboot as well.

Look to this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1078213

for inspiration.

Once you get into the recovery loaded via fastboot, you can get whatever rom that you want onto the SD card by navigating to:

Mounts and Storage > Mount USB Storage

and leave it on that screen while you load the rom onto the SD card.

After that flash the new rom via CWM as normal.
[Nexus S General] davidboyd:
Thanks for the reply. Since I was already unlocked, I followed the steps to return the phone to stock, including flashing boot, system, userdata, recovery and erasing cache. Now when I reboot, it just loops to the Google screen and reboots after 30 seconds. The only difference is that I don't see the lock icon at the bottom or the Google screen.

When I select Recovery, it just goes into the same Google loop. I am going to try to go through the root steps and see what happens. :-(
[Nexus S General] davidboyd:
I was able to unlock the phone, but it will not boot into Recovery. I can get to Fastboot, but I am back to where I started.

When I gave the phone to my son, I had installed SetCPU and configured a profile to throttle the processor down when the screen was off to conserve battery. I am now wondering if he tried to overclock the processor and clicked "set at boot".

Any more suggestions? (please)
[Nexus S General] Harbb:
Did you successfully flash a recovery.img? Immediately after this you should hit Recovery, then mount the storage, copy a ROM over, do a Full Wipe and flash the ROM.

If all goes well, you'll boot fine. If not, it may be a hardware problem. Try to wipe most of it and lock the bootloader if you need to send it to samsung.
[Nexus S General] davidboyd:
It looks like I successfully flashed a recovery image. I have tried version 5.x and version 3.x. Below is the result of the 5.x command. However when I select Recovery from Fastboot, I go to the Google screen loop.

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery-cloc

kwork-5.0.2.0-crespo4g.img

sending 'recovery' (4136 KB)... OKAY

writing 'recovery'... OKAY

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\tools>
[Nexus S General] rasengan82:
OK, go to http://wonderly.com/bb/CRESPO4G/OEM/GRJ22IMAGES.zip

That will download the GRJ22 stock images of your phone. Unzip them in your PC. Next, use fastboot like this.

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio radio.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot erase cache

After it finishes you can reboot your phone with "fastboot reboot". This will installed Stock GB 2.3.4 for NS4G. Setup your phone and you will get OTA to 2.3.5. After that you will get OTA again to 2.3.7. Good luck.

By the way, you must let it OTA all the way up to 2.3.7 to get the latest Radio and bootloader version.
