[HTC Sensation] lolomin:
Hi guys,

I'm calling for your help because it seems my HTC Sensation XE's girl friend is now in a bad situation :(

First error : ICS update through OTA was proposed and installed so it's now in HBoot 1.27.0000 Locked bootloader and S-ON because I did not had time before to put it S-OFF / SuperCID / rooted when she was with Gingerbread.

Second Error : tried to unlocked the bootloader with HTCDev ... pretty useless it seems and ICS is now not booting anymore.

Now I have the phone that seems to be in a bootloop at each start, can't install any HTC RUU, it gave me Error 155 every time, I have 4EXT Touch Recovery which is still accessible but what to do with it ...

As I can't install any custom rom due to S-ON and locked bootloader, I would like to come back to the HTC Official ICS at least so the phone would be useable but I don't know how as the RUU does not want to install ?

Anyone who have any idea on how to unlock the situation please ?

Precision : I also have an HTC Sensation XE, so I was wondering if I could try to restore an nandroid backup of my Sensation ? I think this is not possible or at least things needs to be changed to restore it successfully ?

Thks,

BR.

Hi!

Downloaded and clean flashed AOKP B30 and gapps, came from M4. Got into a bootloop. Went into recovery, wiped, still bootloop. Pushed an original image to the phone via Gnex Toolkit. Still bootloop!!

Now I have no idea what to do....

Please help!!

CWM cant find my sdcard either it seems!

If I try going into stock recovery, I get an android with a triangle.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Step 1: Take a deep breath. Your device is fine (although your data is probably gone).

Recovery cannot find /sdcard because there is likely an issue with your data partition, where /sdcard resides. The best thing to do is flash the stock images again. I recommend you do it manually so you can actually see what you are doing, instead of using a toolkit. Follow this procedure and you will be fine. And flash back CWM. (The android you are seeing with the red exclaimation point IS the stock recovery. To access the menu from there, repeatedly press volume up and power until you see the menu.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eivi91:
Thanks for your help, but it seems the problem was that the phone was connected to the computer. So I probably just flashed stock and wiped my sdcard for nothing. Since everytime it bootlooped, the computer tried to install a driver.

I feel stupid. :)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
I have an U8800H for about a year. I've used a lot of ROMs with it, and most of them worked perfectly.

Some months ago, Huawei released the 2.3.5 Firmware update for our phone. I installed it and faced the lot of problems that most of them are by now well known and some of them repaired.

But one of these problems was the curious "SD destroyed" problem, that plagues -as I found- a lot of U8800 users but is also so sporadic that is very difficult to pinpoint - and is present in EVERY ROM that is based on 2.3.5 update (.35 kernel).

Let me explain:

After some days with the 2.3.5 update, my phone crashed and rebooted. When rebooted, I found that my Trancend 4GB SD card was not mounted anymore. The phone could not mount it and found it as "destroyed". When I tried to mount it again, some times the phone reported that "SD card was ready to be removed" or such, and others that the card was "destroyed".

The card, though, was perfectly readable by all of my PCs and other phones. The only way to mount it again in U8800 was to copy its contents somewhwere else, format it, put back the contents and insert it again in the phone, after rebooting it. And, strangely, the card was working again perfectly, for 1-2 days at least, until this problem repeat itself.

I thought that the problem was one of the stock ROM's many faults, so I tried a lot of other ROMS, like MIUI, CM7, etc. The problem repeated itself in every one of these ROMS.

I thought that my card was problematic, so I tried to use an older but perfectly unused 2GB Kingston SD card. The problems repeated with this card, also. I also used the new card with the other ROMs. I lost many hours and the problem was always there.

I also tried two 1 GB cards and three 16GB cards. I had the same experience with any of these, emerging after of 2-3 days of use of every card.

I found a lot of forum posts where users are reporting the same problem, without any solution, probably because it happens not to every phone and because it's also sporadic.

I thought that my phone was broken, so I installed the original stock ROM, as the service center would not accept it with a custom ROM. But when I reverted back to the original, the problem disappeared!

With the old stock ROM, everything is running perfectly and the SD card is always correctly mounted.

I tried to go back to the new custom ROMs, only to meet again with the same problem. The new "Gingerbread" ROMs, have obviously a bug!

Now I am using the old stock ROM and I have no problem, again.

I am writing all these to ask If someone has the same problem, and to report it as a bug that is hidden somewhere inside the .35 kernels.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
You should have post this topic in the Q/A Section :|
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
It's not a question, its the report of a bug inside the .35 kernels. It's now specific to one of them, but present to all, that's why I had to create a new thread.

I have found also that the problem lies with the new gingerbread bootloaders and it is not present in the froyo bootloaders.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sensimilla:
I have the same problem with SD cards on my U8800.

It has destroyed 2 cards so far for me. When I first did the official gingerbread upgrade it didn't go well I had to try and install it multiple times and it kept going into boot loops. The end result was that my Class 10 16GB card became so damaged that it wasn't even detectable on multiple PCs with various card readers.

Thanks Huawei £15 down the drain.

My second card and I suspect my third card which is still in my phone, have problems with writing. Small writes are OK but as soon as something writes more than a few MB the card fails silently and the OS or phone thinks the file has been written but it hasn't and then subsequent writes fail. Unmounting and remounting the card in the phone makes it writable again for a while. These symptoms persist even when used on a PC so the phone is doing something bad which damages the card.

This problem occurs with dzo's ICS as well as official GB so I think the original posters assumption that it must be some code in the bootloader that is causing this problem is likely correct.

I'd love Huawei to fix this or find a workaround as I would rather not return my phone because I would likely only get refunded 50% of what I paid originally and I actually really like the phone.

Froyo roms worked fine with the SD card, it is definitely the poor quality Huawei update that has caused this.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
I think I have an answer. Back when I started tampering with the phone I had changed the data/internal usb partition sizes as here: http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1112857.html

Somewhere I read about a user who had the same problem as us, and he had done the same change.

So today I reverted back to the original partition sizes, installed 2.3.5 stock ROM and the o/c kernel and until now I have no problem.

Maybe something in the new firmware doesn't like the changed partitions and thus the problem is created...

Sensimilla, If you also changed the partition sizes, then we have an answer.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
Update: The bug reappeared. After 4-5 hours of heavy use, my 4GB card was once again "destroyed". So the partition sizes had nothing to do with it.

So, I tried what entrapmen suggested. I booted to recovery and chose "fix partitions". And it worked. My card was once again mounted correctly.

I don't know what to say. I will keep posting until we find a more permanent solution...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
It seems I found a permanent solution: Install Aurora ICS 4.0.4: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1492957

I am using it for about 20hours now and everything runs smoothly. Probably the new Android 4 bootloaders fixed the bug.

(And as an added bonus, our phone gets a radio!)

Hopefully it works for you, too.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] entrapmen:
Dont get much excited. Im using ics and time to time problem still occurs but not that much. Like i said before a fix permissions resolve the problem.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
It's nearly 3 days now with ICS 4.0.4 and the bug didn't appear - and I did some heavy testing. I transfered lots of small and big files to my 4GB card without the slightest problem many times.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sensimilla:
I did some more testing on my sdcard and it is indeed damaged. It seems to have been set to read only permanently. Windows 7 doesn't detect this but I downloaded the official sdcard formatter from panasonic and it says the card is read only. Apparently there is a small protected section of the card that is hidden and used for DRM, read only can be marked in this section of the card. Normally this section is only writable by the card manufacturer. I guess as the phone has low level access to the card via hardware this section could have been inadvertently damaged by Huawei's bug ridden update. This is the same state that my previous card ended up in too.

The apparent writing to the card seems to just be the cache on the phone/computer which mounting and unmouting resets.

I will buy another small sdcard and just use it with ICS Aurora this time and see how it goes. I have been using Aurora for the last month anyway. Maybe it will be fourth time lucky.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Fri13:
Just clear the whole MicroSD card with dd program writing it full a random data first and then after that zero.

And if you can not detect the card at all with dmesg program, then that card is destroyed.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lateris:
It's a week now with ICS Aurora 4.0.4 (206,207 and now 208) and the bug didn't appear at all.

I filled my -previously problematic with 2.3 ROMS- 4GB SD card fully, I even tried to stop file transfers abnormally, pulling the cable. But no problems appeared whatsoever.

So I have to believe that with 4.0.4 the problem is gone.

I have put SetCPU in it as the native overclocking support in CM7 does not work. Whenever I change the settings the phone shuts down after a few minutes. And it always shows 275MHz or something like this. The phone is really slow and takes years to load anything. HELP!! :mad:

I've built a copy of AOSP 4.0.4 from the release tags and it seems to be missing the auto-complete/correct for the keyboard, or at least the dictionary. The only values that it completes or tries to complete are from my contacts.

[LG Optimus Black] nico88:
hey guys I tried all 4 rom are there for my optimus black, and I must say that I prefer his original ....

the only nice feature is the new delfin, others are not that great ...

almost all zeam launcher that I really do not like it at all!

The cyano is not very good now and then crashed and I have to restart the phone!

I wanted to ask the developers if they instead continue to update the same rom, you could not possibly build a new one .... I do not know how I'd play if not!

for example, using the cyano as the basis, perhaps with some kernel that makes it function better, and change the launcher base adw with another and with some modifications at the interface, status bar, and some news ....!

excuse me if I am a bit picky, but among the rom are there for this phone, I have the rom of the original because it's the best there is sincere!

sorry but my English is not my own language ...
[LG Optimus Black] VictorMun:
Let me set this straight... you don't want the ROMs because of the launcher that it includes? Are you aware that you can install ANY launcher? (Even the Original LG Launcher)

[LG Optimus Black] facekill1337:
You really prefer original V20? GB from LG? do you tried Zeus v6.11? its the best and stablest rom out there, and for one man only work its really awesome, its your opinion, but i think not much will agree :D When i use any rom i always change Keyboard, Launcher, maybe Theme when Cyanogenmod and Ringtone, so that the only changes are Interface and the Tweaks.. You should make a list what makes you say that original is best

something like pro/con you know ?`:D
[LG Optimus Black] nico88:
yes I know I can change the launcher ... but downloading app fills the phone memory ...

I meant to have a rom already prepared with everything inside!

even if the app is useless to fill memory and just, I like better than the original v20n other rom ... if I could I'd do one myself but unfortunately not so easy ... :-(

delfin the rom is nice, the MIUI 2.6 does not suit me because there is the Italian language, if no one was cute ... The Zeus and Marvel are not for my own!

cyano and does not work very well ...

that's all ..
[LG Optimus Black] VictorMun:
You can uninstall the launcher that comes by default. Really, I don't see your point. The only thing that I could possible understand that you'd criticise are the themes... but still, the Zeus theme is really close to the stock one.

[LG Optimus Black] denclaud:
I don't mean any disrespect, but I think you basically don't know what you're talking about. You're out here in the forums criticizing all the rom developers out there who's doing their best to provide good, quality custom roms for us.

If you have a problem with the launcher then change it! You can't expect every developer to please you because each of use have different preference.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
take a look...

the beauty of the droid lies in it's "Compatibility" and flexiness.

EVERY APPLICATION IN A ROM can be changed, modified or deleted.

the DEV provides a "standard" app for the ROM (like a standard launcher, generic keyboard,music player, etc). if you do not like it, delete them from the zip and add the ones you like BEFORE flashing.

u can swipe the apps from other ROM's you like, or better yet, install a ROM and then customize it. like i use the xperia s launcher, so i deleted the launcher with the ROM.

there are some GREAT ROM's out there. Try ZEUS. as said, ZEUS is phenomenal. also try ECHELON and MARVEL. these are your "stock" options.

else u can also go for MIUI(2.6 is really stable) or cm7.

and HOW ARE THERE "4" ROMs??!!! for GB, i can count:

1. ZEUS

2. ECHELON

3. MIUI

4. DELFIN

5. MARVEL

6. LEWA OS

7. LEZO

8. TMR

9. LFD

10. NOA

11.LIGUX

12. SAPPHIRE

13. PRADA 3.0

and 14.CM7 (original plus many KANGs)a....four ROMs???do search the forum a bit man :p :p
[LG Optimus Black] nico88:
I'm not offending anyone at!

I simply asked if instead of doing the rom updates that are already there, you could not possibly create new ones!

This was the pillar of my request!

However, I repeat that my request was simply if you could make new rom! I have not really criticized the no!

and anyway thanks
[LG Optimus Black] TheGripper:
So according to your first post, you'd rather use original, untweaked and considerably slower rom than any other rom on this forum ?
[LG Optimus Black] nico88:
are definitely better ones on this forum for rom .... that the original ....

but the ones I like are not Italian and cyano is not working well ...
[LG Optimus Black] ogremount:
Heard about "More Locale " ? It gives you the option to instal languages in case the ROM doesn't have them.

Zeus gives the option to restore the dreaded LG launcher and keyboard so it will look as the original ROM it will just be faster and leaner.Same for most of the original software-browser, lock screen , office etc.

Apart from the looks, which as i said can be restored do say what makes the original ROM better for you?
[LG Optimus Black] pythoner:
The intention of the Threadstarter is clear: Troll.

Why do you guys even bother with that? Srsly :confused:

I think that everything has already been said and cleared. Anybody agrees with me? :rolleyes:

In custom roms I also miss the support of my language, MoreLocale2 doesn't restore my language, it only sets the country&language of the user.
