Hi

I have a sensation xe. I rooted it before upgrading it to ICS (before is GB).

I upgraded it by flashing official ics rom due to I previously installed clockworkmod recovery which stop me from normal way of upgrade.

After upgrade everything's fine, but superuser and clockworkmod gone.

When I install superuser it says binary not found. but I checked my bootloader it says S-OFF.

What should I do?

Android - 4.0.3

Software number - 3.32.401.105

Hboot - 1.27.0000

Radio - 11.22.3504.07_M
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
Nevermind.
[HTC Sensation] xegneto:
I don't know what is that, I think not.

I flashed it using RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.105_R_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_251961_signed.exe
[HTC Sensation] XaQi 101:
If you find it locked you have to unlock first with htcdev.com but many user won't recommend it but at this time I think it the only way to unlock the bootloader, install the custom recovery(CWM) and install the superuser(root the phone).

You can get the details on this post.
[HTC Sensation] xegneto:
But I already have it rooted before upgrade. I thought it will remain rooted? coz my bootloader shown S-OFF
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
OK, you have S-off. I guess you should be able to flash Revolutionary firmware from Boot loader, then use fast boot to flash the recovery, then flash root from the recovery you installed earlier and voila.
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
Or, flash a firmware that contains recovery and then flash super user (just make sure its the correct firmware.) (I don't remember exactly where I seen this firmware, but I'm sure I have. Maybe here or somewhere else)
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
If you are S-Off you can root it again (because you flashed a RUU you lost root)

1) need to have a custom recovery (CWN or 4EXT). There is a nice tool to instal 4ext recovery HERE or download this PG58IMG. Just put it in your sd card and flash it from bootloader.

2) Then Download and install from custom recovery the Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

Done!
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
By flashing the RUU he lost recovery.
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
In fact I wrote point 1) he needs a custom recovery first ;)
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
They don't recommend it because it doesn't unlock the bootloader completely. Read more and please don't recommend it, it's incorrect. His bootloader is already unlocked, hence he is s off. As already mentioned he needs to root and install Recovery.
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
And the app needs root ;)
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
Not if you flash a PG58IMG from bootloader. Done hundreds of times

If you download from Market then yes, you need root.;)
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
You got me lol. I'm used to either flashing recovery through fast boot or running revolutionary to get it installed, then switch to 4EXT through the app :p
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
Correct. By revolutionary you install CWM and then you can switch to 4ext. same as I did but in his case he doesn't need to use Revolutionary because already unlocked and s-Offed (and also because Revolutionary doesn't support Hboot 1.27). He needs just to install a custom recovery by a PG58IMG and superuser to get root again. :)
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
If the. Hboot is the issue why not just get an older one, put it in a zip called pjwhatever.zip (not sure :p I own a wildfire) and then just put into bootloader and flash it. He has s-off like.??:confused:

sent from my android powered beast!
[HTC Sensation] kualmente:
Hboot has nothing to do. The OP wants just root the phone again after upgrade to ICS.

Also, I think we are hitchhiking the thread with OT postings.

That said, this is my last post here.

For the OP: Follow instructions few posts above and good luck ;)
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
ahh, sorry i misread. i thought the ruu had upgraded the hboot to the htcdev hboot that has the locked unlocked thing. my bad.:(
[HTC Sensation] xegneto:
Thank you so much for teaching me. I have custom recovery and superuser now in my phone.

but I have 1 more question, what is the ***LOCKED*** means in my bootloader? Is that simlock?
[HTC Sensation] Rhiannon224:
It means you cannot use advanced fastboot commands. You're still s off, don't worry about locked.
[HTC Sensation] toreone:
I think I need help. I have successfully got to S-OFF and I am trying to flash the IMG file from HBOOT but for some reason it wont take. I have to file in the root of the SD CARD and I am sure I named it properly but when I get into HBOOT it says something like it cant find the image and goes back into the HBOOT menu. Any ideas...I think I need to use a smalled sd card but someone else said their 8GB card worked fine. When I was on my HD2 I had to use a 1GB card to make it work once before.:confused:
[HTC Sensation] BurnRubber90:
You need to flash a Pg58 zip, not recovery.img

Hi All.

I have the Aussie Velocity that has ICS via ota update.

Just recently data and wifi are turning on in the mornings automatically.

This has only started to occur to occur after downloading Angry Birds Space....(okay, that was a lame d/l, but the game is addictive) I have since uninstalled the game, but the issue still exits.

Is there anyway of telling what app or system call is turning these on?

Or is there something that I am overlooking?

Best Regards

Paul
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] :
So your unchecking them in the settings menu or via your status bar and they are just turning on by themselves?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Spectrejester:
Mine has been doing the same since the ICS update. You can turn WiFi off and after a while it turns itself back on. Same happens in reverse as well.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] :
Wiping cache doesnt fix?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapdaddy:
Just got mine and it does the same thing at random. This issue seems to be only on ICS.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cyapalmpos:
Same here. Started after I activated Visual Voicemail on ICS.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] FPV-GT:
Contacted HTC today, they wanted me to remove the battery and wait one minute...lol

After I told them that I had already done that and a full factory reset had been done, he suggested I take it to back to the retailer and have it examined. WTF!

I even asked if it was possible to remove the update and go back to original firmware........I can not help with that maybe the retailer will know....double WTF...lol

It sounds like a software problem over a hardware problem. I wonder if anybody running a custom ROM has this problem or if anyone still on GB has it.

Will wait till I have the "new" phone in my hand.

Thanks to all for your posts.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Aus_Azn:
Tech support guys always know diddly squat about anything.

But of course, you knew that, and that's why you're here. I can say that it seems to happen intermittently with my WiFi, but never on Mobile Network. I'm on Leigh Kennedy's deodexed Telstra stock.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Mine just started doing this today. I work for lowes and most of the time the wifi here sucks so I kept it off today. But my pandora would randomly stop fetching data and I'd look and see that wifi logo in the status bar. Weird issue no doubt.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapdaddy:
Okay so after looking at catlog, what I *think* is happening is that the phone is automatically trying to start tethering and this enables WiFi. I could be wrong but that's what catlog shows when I turn the screen on after an extended sleep over the course of a couple hours. I emailed myself the log..will post screens later.

Edit: Posting screencap..can somebody more educated with these logs chime in here? This problem is incredibly annoying.

Edit 2: I connected a Bluetooth headset just a few minutes ago and the WiFi turned on with it. In the logs, you can see Bluetooth tethering turn on which caused the WiFi to turn on. Seems there could be some serious tethering bugs here..

I have been noticing mobile network starting, but not wifi.

I didn't notice before ICS OTA update.

I called AT&T/htc. They want mt to use the ROM from htc's site. It's naturally M$ only. They say they will replace the phone, I wonder if I should tell them it still connects randomly without reloading thr ROM?

If I Use this with bootloader unlocked, CWM installed, will I get boot loop?

Thanks in advance

PH39100

ICS from OTA

Bootloader unlocked

CWM installed

No root
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ccb101:
Guessing your talking about the ruu and if so you need to relock the bootloader or else it won't install but once you do that your good to go it will flash over you cwm recovery
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Microbot2:
Yes, it's the official RUU.

It's boot loader locked for rom updates, and off for everything else, right?

I have read this before, but I am completely new to android. I have had the ph39100 for three weeks. A lot of what I have read has not completely jelled, I guess.

Thanks!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] krustmother:
My mobile network was starting on its own as well. Until I removed qic.

AT&T will go to any lengths to hide the fact that their spy software does this. Including replacing your phone when you complain.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombieguy85:
Has any one figured this out I'm also having this issue on stock ics. Att
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
I'm thinking this might be an issue with 4.03. My understanding is 4.04 is a huge bug fix update. Hopefully htc will hook us up eventually.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zombieguy85:
Well im fixing to download a non stock rom I'm getting tired of the bugs
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Well if they are related to ics 4.03, you'll have the same bugs. If they are related to the ics rom in general however then you might be ok
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] DJM83:
Any news?

Mine has just started doing it now, ive had ICS since it was released and has only just started doing it.

Turns mobile data off, quite frankly i should have kept my iPhone.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e.coli:
Hi, I have a Xoom Wifi, originally Canadian but flashed the US firmware, and updated to ICS 4.0.4.

I've noticed that the Wifi tends to disconnect sporadically and only while streaming video (watching YouTube videos, either in the YouTube app or on Chrome, or streaming from a local machine via Plex or Emit). It never ever seems to happen when doing normal browsing, or even copying large files via a shared network folder, only when watching video. Rebooting the tablet seems to fix the problem for a while, but wifi starts dropping about 20 minutes after booting and loading a streaming movie.

I've tried changing DHCP to a static IP, changing the wifi channel, and several different routers, and the problem stays the same. Has anyone else experienced this or heard of a fix?

I've been using CWM Recovery since the hero and havent ran into an issue like this before... i get an error in the /dir where the rom is being flashed from, status 1 aborting when i try flash red dark vemon and some kernels that i know are compatible with Mean3.6. i was wondering if some stuff just isn't compatible? any input is appreciated
[HTC EVO 3D] Tybomb2002:
I had that same issue and switched to ext4 recovery and it fixed the problem. I couldn't flash anything except kernels until I switched.

Edit: its called 4ext recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
Could also try TWRP recovery. I have never had luck flashing with CWM, going back to OG Evo.

[Galaxy S II General] sk1989:
Not everyone flashes their phone, but all of us suffer from bugs.

I thought of starting an exclusive thread just for discussing the bugs present on the official SGS2 Firmware.

With the experts here, hopefully they can be clarified, resolved and become history :P

So, i'll start with the bugs i found.

My firmware version is I9100GDDKL1

First issue

When i get a call and answer it, the screen times out, as the proximity sensor signals it to. But often AFTER the call, and after i take the phone away from my ear to hang up, the screen does not come back again, instead it goes blank black. The call is still on as i am not able to press the end call soft button.

Pressing the home key OR the power key have no affect, it last for 10-20 seconds maybe and then it comes back on its own AFTER the person on the other side hangs up.

Any ideas? This is a sensor, or a software glitch?

Second Issue

Sometimes the phone just loses connectivity. Alot of times its within the city. Its odd, because normally others using the same network do not face this issue.

I have to then manually re-connect to the network.

What issues can these be?

Third Issue

I have noticed this twice now. Phone starts acting funny, as in no signal and does not restore it. I restart it, but when i do, the entire home screen and app drawer is gone. Its blank. All other phone functions work just fine.

I restart again a couple of times, but no luck. So i finally open the back cover, take out the battery, sim and SD Card and put them back again. After that when i switch it on again, it works just fine.

Software or Hardware problem?
[Galaxy S II General] jessecj:
This thread is a great idea i think.

My firmware version is I9100XWLP4.

I have only one issue, the same as the first issue in the op, been using this firmware for about a week now, and thats the only problem i have come accross so far.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jesse
[Galaxy S II General] santhoshar:
My PDA is i9100XWKI4 and GB on it.

First two issues are happening with my SGS2 also, but twice in a week or thrice in a week only. I think proximity sensor have some HW issue.

For calls, even phone shows good signal, but calls are dropped, before I thought it was the problem with other end party, but realized that it is SGS2 problem.
[Galaxy S II General] Azax:
My firmware is i9100xxlpq and I have none of these issues. Maybe you could try flashing the rom I'm using.
[Galaxy S II General] sk1989:
We can solve alot of issues by simply flashing it, but i wanted to know if there is some way that we can solve them with simpler adjustments/enhancements?

Also if we conclude that something is an hardware issue, then we should just go to a service center and get it corrected, shouldn't we?
[Galaxy S II General] MistahBungle:
There isn't a great deal you can do about most 'problems' if you stick to stock & don't root or run custom firmware.

Short of sending it back to Samsung. Who will probably only flash the latest firmware (if there is any) if the problem isn't hardware related. Which you could easily do yourself.

Rooting/running custom firmware gives you the ability to solve problems that otherwise wouldn't be fixable (and definitely produces problems that otherwise wouldn't happen as well sometimes obviously).
[Galaxy S II General] sk1989:
I don't disagree with you that rooting/ flashing custom roms will solve most software issues or atleast lead a way to solving them.

All i am saying is, that is there a way to solve some of these problems otherwise.

Also we can find out if our phone has an hardware issue, because if some problem is too uncommon, then it probably IS isolated and can be a hardware fault.

I think all do update their firmware. I Infact changed to the latest one recently, but it didn't do any good.

I am not against flashing man :).

Just keeping it as a last resort.
[Galaxy S II General] sk1989:
This is not for ICS alone.

You mean to say there can be NO hardware fault at all?

Is it just depends on replacing wpa_supplicant file, or something more?

Because author of this apk said that file is vary for various devices, and I'd like to request for Onda V972 V1.

Apk doesn't work.

Can I just replace it without recovery, or is a stock recovery does the same in case of not having other one?

So i just switched back to at&t and could not decide on a phone. I got my wife a note and its cool almost too big . I bought them at costco and have 89 days to return for another phone and didn't know what i wanted so i got a LG thrill, not a great phone for a flash aholic like me, just grabbed it cause it was free till i decided. Should i just go get a note or is the one x going to be worth waiting out or maybe the skyrocket hd ..... this is the first time i haven't had a cutting edge phone in years and I'm not sure to pull the trigger on the note or wait out something better.
[Networking] alexige:
In my biased personal opinion the Note is absolutely positively THE best phone currently on the market and the best phone that will be out until the Note 2. Yes it is a big phone but that's part of the reason I LOVE it. It's just superb. Yes Samsung is a bit laggy on updates seeing how we are on Gingerbread still but the developer community is outstanding on these phones. I've had the Captivate before this and the community was outstanding. Give this some more time and it will be the same way because this is such a different phone it will be better than the Captivate which the devs made an outstanding phone in my opinion given what they were dealt from the factory.

Go Note and don't look back!
[Networking] spiderjerusalem:
Thanks for the reply dev support is a huge deal to me so i think i might just do that, i don't know how long i can run without ics after having a rezound and a gnex both on ics and i know i can already do it on the note. Maybe i will just play with the note i got for my wife for a couple more days and swap out this thrill for a note if i can get used to the size.

Skyrocket HD should be out in like a week or two I thought. Also will be a great phone. Still a big 4.65 screen but not too large like the note imo.

Almost too many options i wish i could have waited to leave Verizon till these were out.. at least the 90 day return policy should let a couple of them release before i am stuck although i might just go grab myself a note i think i will probably wait and see the skyrocket hd at least first if it really is so soon and if i can last on gingerbread lol
