Sensation stuck on boot

Hey guys, So I initiated flash today and have come across a slight problem;

I followed the guides on here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21711154#post21711154

and here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21989107

I saw that the first thing to have done was install 4ext recovery. I followed the read me and tried the "adb reboot bootloader" but it kept saying device not found. Then I noticed I had it already in my phone, so I ran the backup and it said back up complete. So then I turned off the phone, rebooted into bootloader and waited for the update. However, it said "error invalid CID and can't update. Press power to reboot" It was the only option given. So then, I followed the guide on Kohr-Ah's page and took out the SD card, rebooted into bootloader, went to Recovery, ran superwipe and installed ARHD 6.5.1 with Beats Audio. After everything went done and well, it rebooted and turns on but once the beats logo completes its circle, it gets stuck on the beats page. I ran the wipe again, and reinstalled ARHD and still gives the same result. Any body know how I can solve it?

I also forgot to say that when I try to install the PG581IMG (the firmware) it says:

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update package...

Installation aborted.
[XPERIA X8 General] Darkostica:
Hi,

I've been running XGin 4 on my X8 for some time now with no issue at all and I recently decided I'd like a change so I had a look on the cyanogenmod website to get cm7.1 as referred by friend. I tried following one or two guides on how to install it and failed every time. I gave up and left it a few days. I turned my phone off last night for the first time since and now it can't get past the Sony Ericsson logo screen. I can't boot into xRecovery or anything so I've no idea what to do. I know most of you in here can probably help me and it would be greatly appreciated.

P.s. If it wasn't the attempted installs that killed my phone, it could have been a busybox updater that I downloaded from the market?

1 = get a flash-tool, you have to flash back your x8 to stock rom,,

flashtool -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=986697

then you have to find out the shakira stock rom ftf file to flash back using flashtool

2 = SEUS, you try it before?? so easy,, let SEUS repair your x8 problem

after you finish all the step above,, the you have to root back your x8..

Hi All

Im trying to do a wipe data/factory reset so i can install a new ROM but im running into a major problem, my wipe data does not work i have tried from the settings menu and also from CWM Recovery but to no avail all of my apps are still there and all saved settings widgets etc

i'm currently on Fox hound 1.2 and have CWM maguro touch 5.8.0.2

Galaxy Nexus UK GSM

Any Ideas
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kgeissler:
A wipe will not erase the contents of your "sdcard" partition on the GN. Are these the files that you are seeing?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evillee87:
Thought I would just try and change ROM anyway to see what happens I went for foxhound 0.2 and works OK but I can't open up the ROM control settings it just force closes every time

Did wipe from CWM recovery first but all of my apps are there with their relevant data along with Google, Facebook and twitter accounts

Will changing the kernel help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
You could always try wiping through ADB. :) See if that fixes your problems. If not, I'd say reflash your recovery maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evillee87:
I've tried to reflash the recovery hence why I have the touch version but it didn't do much and I'm guna sound very much like a noob and I probably am but how do u wipe thru adb and will I lose things like photos and music on the sdcard??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Well.. I think it might wipe everything, so you could just pull /system/media (virtual SD card), and then wipe, thus keeping everything on your SD card safe. Go to this site and follow the instructions (setting up SDK, etc.) If you don't have ADB/fastboot. But you would have to have it right? That's how you got rooted? Or did you just root it using the Gnex toolkit? If so you can wipe your data partition through the toolkit as well. Link and Link
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evillee87:
I used a toolkit on my lapdog so It will have to wait until I get home I will report back in a few hours,

unless I can do anything without the use of a laptop?

Yeah, you have a very unique problem, that I doubt you could fix without using a computer... I mean, your data wipe doesn't work? That's just crazy...

I have this problem as well. I'm trying to search google for fix but if you know how to please post. I used wugfresh toolkit to unlock. Which option do I use to reset?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bmett:
back up your SD card and re lock then unlock your bootloader again and it will wipe everything...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evillee87:
hi diggs I've managed to sort the issue but it takes time with the lap dog

1. Download wugfresh gnex toolkit or one that you are comfortable using. MUST HAVE STOCK FIRMWARE in with toolkit!

2. Backup all personal files onto a folder in the computer I.e pictures, video's etc ya know the important stuff

3. Flash stock firmware and unroot and possibly re lock boot loader this will return phone to how it was out of the box and completely factory reset

4 from here you can then unlock boot loader and root just follow all of the steps the toolkit tells you

5 finally flash any from you desire transfer all the personal data back to your phone

Unfortunately the data from the apps cannot be recovered and also the messages but your contacts would have been backed up via your Google account

I will find the post with the toolkit and re posy shortly

I flashed it like this( correct me if my flashing is wrong,i don't know if this caused the charging problem)

Running Android NAND.

I downloaded a ROM then use DWI.exe(right?)

I just booted my android to USB Flasher mode.

Then flashed using the DWI.exe

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Illidan Pornrage:
Hi,

my phone was stolen and to track it police needs the IMEI number.

I know its on the sticker at the bottom side of the package, but ... I used the package as container for joint assembly and threw it away when I cleaned my car.

I still have nandroid backups left on my computer.

I remember in that strange chinaphone I bought on ebay was a file "/sys/nvram/bla/blubb/IMEI.something, which somebody nulled.

I unyaffsed my system.img from the DZ but it had no sys folder.

Can I retrieve the IMEI from a file in the backup? If, then which?

lg

Pronibert
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crestofawave:
I don't know if you can find the IMEI in the nandroid backup, but I think info like that is stored in partition 7 of the phone. Now, when you use gfree to root it, you end up with a partition 7 backup, which includes unique info about your phone.

So if you can't find it in the nandroid, it might be valuable to look there, if you have a partition 7 backup.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Illidan Pornrage:
Wish me luck that I still have the p7 backup. Right now I am very pessimistic as my adb folder was on a crashed hd and I think I pulled it to there.

At any case you should ask Nipqer, he knows more about that stuff than I do. You can hop onto #g2root at the freenode IRC and ask there. They'll probably give you a better answer.

UPDATED 3/25/2012

Talk Android, in the article below, mistakenly stated the update was for the X2 was live. Turns out not to be true.

http://www.talkandroid.com/99664-droid-x2-minor-update-1-3-418-is-now-live/#.T2HsKEGxFI4

I'm so avoiding this. Anyone else that decides to be brave and apply it, let us know the following:

Can you root with Zergrush

Can you SBF back to 2.3.4 without bricking your phone

Just for S and Gs, see if the bootloader is unlocked. I doubt it, but maybe a dev did something stupid? If so, save that update!

[Motorola Droid X2] litetaker:

If not, is this "really" what Moto was soak testing? :confused: What if it means... :eek: (gasp!)??

Edit: I don't think it is live yet, iBolski. Verizon's webpage still says "Coming Soon", like I'm supposed to be happy. I think the article is misguided... Did any brave soldier get the update and then apply it?
[Motorola Droid X2] gaad0701:
I am signed up for the soak and I have not received it yet. I also tried to force the update to my phone just now and it is not pushing it.

I am going to be brave on this one because I have a back up phone I can fall on if anything does go wrong, but I am pretty much ready to just drop my DX2 like our Ambassador and just use something else until my upgrade....

I will let everyone know as soon as I get the email for the soak or if I can update to this at some point today...
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Security update! I do not trust those bastards. I hope someone tries it so we know but I don't wish anyone to get stuck without root or able to sbf. Need a normal user that does not care about these things. I will not get close to it before we find out what it does.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
If/when you get it, check also just in case some dev made a "mistake" and left the kernel unlocked. Would be nice.
[Motorola Droid X2] gaad0701:
I am no dev, can you walk me through how to do that? I am willing to try anything but I do not know how to do that off the top of my head.
[Motorola Droid X2] ztotherad:
do you have the Android SDK on your computer? if you do just go into the folder where it's stored:

if windows C:/SDK (i believe)

if Linux /home/yourname/android-sdk-linux

it should have fastboot within there, but i'm bad at explanations, so iBolski'll walk you through it better than I can.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
From what I understand, you do the following, but back everything up to your external SD card first (do a nandroid) and you must have the Motorola USB drivers and Android SDK installed. Of course, since you've been flashing and SBFing, you definitely have those already installed:

Have your phone hooked up to your PC and type "ADB REBOOT BOOTLOADER"

The phone should reboot into the bootloader saying "Starting Fastboot Protocol Support"

When it's rebooted into the bootloader, type this in your DOS command window: "fastboot eom unlock"

Read the warnings. This WILL reformat your phone so be sure you've backed it up.

Tap Volume Down to switch to "Accept"

Now press Volume Up to actually "accept" the warning.

After that, you should be unlocked and formatted IF the bootloader and kernel were unlocked.

I could be wrong, but that's what I've read before.

[Motorola Droid X2] Skelente:
For those of you considering doing the update, you might want to take a look at these two threads on RootzWiki: rooted before update and important information regarding .621 update (I'm sure there are XDA equivalents of this by now, but these are two threads I'd been following previously for my brother's DX.)

Apparently using OTA rootkeeper (and ADB in some cases) it should be possible to keep root after the sbf *IF* you have SU backed up on /system/! SU cannot (CAN NOT) be restored from the SD card. Of course, any SBF/factory restore will lose SU and you'll be SOL until that gets sorted. Another problem (for us) is that we do not yet have an SBF file for this, so if anything goes awry, you could (potentially, not necessarily) be looking at a nice expensive paper weight until the SBF gets leaked.

This was also mentioned in the DX information thread, but if anyone is brave enough to update from rooted stock (using OTA Rootkeeper) and could get a nandroid, it could potentially be useful for anyone in the know (read: devs) to see what has changed in the update, so that we can examine alternative root methods. Unfortunately, most devs have moved onto newer/better phones so this may take a bit, but there is still a lot of dev for the DX (and the dx2 of course) so hopefully we can get something going (and presumably any exploit found on either phone should hopefully be useful for the other.)
[Motorola Droid X2] coolpoete:
Hey ibolski if VZW is reaching out it's a good thing.. Even if nothing is going to change in terms of their policy. Take the opportunity to reach out to them and let them know how we feel. Perhaps they can understand or at least listen to how HTC customers can feel better about unlocked bootloaders.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I've tried. After I started doing that, the replies via twitter stopped. Figures.
[Motorola Droid X2] Ihatepullups:
listen I'm not saying anything, but just mentioning: I just tried to root my dad's Droid 2 Global and bricked it because the D2G got a "security update" around a week ago that kills root (Duh) and if you try to sbf back down it causes the phone to hard brick.

Now that may not be the case with this- who knows, that particular update went from 2.3.3 to to 2.3.4 and obv this one probably isn't going to update the kernel/bootloader/god knows but even still I find the closeness in time for these two OTAs suspicious, so be careful my flashaholic friends
[Motorola Droid X2] Skelente:
With both the D2 and DX receiving updates that both blocked previous root methods (which were also shared by our DX2) and SBFing to previous versions, IMO its no longer an assumption, any update from Moto will be damaging to non-stock/rommed users. It is strongly recommended that users do not update until (at the very least) an SBF is leaked and (more preferably) a root method is discovered for the update. Root can be preserved using OTA Rootkeeper but, again we can pretty much guarantee that once root is lost, it's lost, and you will not be able to downgrade to previous versions.

With two, soon to be three, Droids receiving updates that are essentially a middle finger to the notion of an unlocked bootloader, the only thing we can do now is sit tight and wait patiently for a workaround to be discovered. P3droid has already tweeted that the change in the droid x's cdt.bin is most likely the culprit as far as blocking the SBFs go. Unfortunately most of the devs that brought us previous root methods have moved onto newer devices and ICS. While most are aware of the issue, I'm guessing it'll take more than that to get the gears going for a workaround.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
I read in the Droid x that his rootkeeper did not work now he is screwed so be careful! Oh ya and screw Motorola!
[Motorola Droid X2] SaurusX:
I think that P3Droid will be a little more motivated to find a workaround once the Droid RAZR (his current phone of preference) is up on the chopping block. Its day is coming, I'm absolutely sure.

Well the ONLY thing Motor has in the Razr Maxx that go's on the chopping block I'll hammer this phone to dust (like my blackberry) and get Htc!!!
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
I have thought the same thing. I would almost rather smash this phone over selling it.
