My phone will not update from any RUU & HTC Devs Unlock Bootloader also does not work.

I loaded a custom rom about a week ago and it locked my bootloader. Now I cannot do anything. My CWM Recovery has gone too. So I'm stuck.

I have managed somehow to load an old rom:

RUU_Marvel_HTC_Europe_1.33.401.2_Radio_47.10.35.3029H_7.46.35.08_release_185724_signed.

This is the only way I got my phone working again.

I have tried other Stock Roms more current via RUU, no luck.

I have tried other Stock Roms more current via Bootloader renaming to PG76IMG, no luck.

Therefore I cannot even update to current anything and what makes it worse is that CWM Recovery has gone. I found this great for Backing Up my phone and Restoring it after trying out Custom Roms.

Anyway, if any one can help me in any way possible and/or point me in the right direction, I would be most greatful.

Please help, if you can.

What is your bootloader version?
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
HBOOT-1.08.0000

RADIO-7.46.35.08

At the moment, I cannot change these because of what I've mentioned in my original post.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
Make a goldcard (search on google) and the you will be able to install any ruu with a software number higher than yours.
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
I cannot create a Goldcard.

I've searched and tried some methods and also looked at some videos too.

I just cannot get the methods to work for me.

I've been trying for a long time to create a Goldcard, about a six months. I get so frustrated I give up.

Can you suggest a particular method that you know works?.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
Could you post the method you used and where you get an error?
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
SimpleGoldCard,

Step 3 Get CID. I chose MMC0, MMC1 and MMC2. No joy.

Unlockr Method.

Cannot get the CID code to reverse. It just doesn't want to know.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
There's an app on the market called goldcard helper. Try that.
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
Thank you.

Tried it and managed to create the Goldcard.

I placed the Goldcard in my phone, tried to update the rom via RUU 2.13.401.2 and went upto 19% complete and then I received an ERROR 171 failed connection.

Basically I'm back to square one again.

I just do not know what else to try.

I am still searching for solutions but with no luck.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
You used the goldcard.img file with the simple goldcard tool right ?

Open simple goldcard tool on your computer, skip the steps which are for the cid, click load goldcard img, navigate to the downloaded img, then click patch mmc, (i dont remember the exact process). Then your goldcard is ready.
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
I've done all that already and got the message "SD Card is now a Goldcard" or something like that.

As I said, back to square one.
[HTC Wildfire S] vbhtt:
There's a tutorial somewhere for that error in the general section. Search for it.
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
Does anyone have any other ideas, please.

I'm getting desperate trying to find a solution.
[HTC Wildfire S] Deleted member 437861:
I know it's been a few months now but I still have the same issue.

Unfortunately no one has really replied with the same or similar issue.

If anyone out there has any other ideas, please let me know. I would love to update my phone.

Thank you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViToBrothers:
Background

I am trying to write an application which works like described below.

When user start application it check if user have registered PIN on his device.

If user have registered PIN, application must show button "Continue with PIN".

When user press on button "Continue with PIN" system standard PIN dialog must appears.

User enter his PIN and press "Continue" button.

After System must check if entered PIN is correct or no and continue working.

Researches

I have made some researches and find some articles on stackoverflow and other internet sources which say "There is no way to develop a new custom unlock mechanism on a non-rooted phone." or "I would be surprised if you could, because then you would be probably able to steal the pin code, and I don't think anyone would want that.".

Also I have watched some video tutorials like Tutorial: Android Internals - Building a Custom ROM, Pt. 1 of 2 and Tutorial: Android Internals - Building a Custom ROM, Pt. 2 of 2.

Decision

So I think that the only way to get access to the Android system PIN dialog is to root the phone make some changes in the system files and use system PIN dialod

Question

Can somebody provide me useful links about getting access to the system PIN dialog in the rooted phone.

Am I on a right way and can I solve my problem in this way ?

If anybody encountered such problem please help me to solve.

Thanks,

Victor
[HTC One X] dave4ange:
Hi guys,

I've just got my hand on the HTC One X.

I had been using the Galaxy S2 with ICS and one of the ICS features I liked was the Swipe Right to call a contact or left to send a message.

With my new HTC when I go into contacts or "people" as htc like to call it and swipe left or right nothing happens I have to give it an olf fashioned couple of prods to call.

Is this me missing something, a feature htc thought it would take out of ICS or is it a fault?

All help and comments appreciated.
[HTC One X] Planet X:
You could try exDialer from market.

that is a fantastic dialer and also supports swipe contacts to dual or SMS
[HTC One X] r_a_c:
That is no ICS feature... but just touchwizz interface. It's the only good thing it does...
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
That feature is Touchwiz only.
[HTC One X] rizevnarastek:
Why would you even need that if you just

tap the "phone",

type two letters of your contacts name,

press on it

and choose between options

:)
[HTC One X] dave4ange:
Thanks for your replies! Didn't realise it was touchwiz thought it was ics. Silly me but maybe sense should knick the idea as it was really good.

[Off-topic] ray33jay:
Recently I started using an all in one DJ solution finding out that it uses Linux totally stoked then find out the company that makes this has just recently been sold many of the people in the forum have all decided to try to ask for the Linux OS as an open-source fearing this is probably not going to happen because the new company is a very large company. They're most likely not going to do anything else with this device at this time I thought of you all of course because I use you and have been using you to modify my android devices also linux based so just wanted to see if it was possible for you all or for any of the super awesome developers to get the kernel or whatever it is to make it possible to mod this device. I do know that on the web page they did release an update before they were bought and it tells you how to get the device in to the mode to upload , possible starting point , so in an end this is a Stanton scs.4dj let me know would so be stoked and so would so many others.

If you want to try and help please look up the Stanton SCS.4DJ

On the support tab for that deck there is an update file that I believe might give us an idea where to start with the device.

Thank you all in advance for looking and attempting anything you do try.

these docks are FREE Shipping to most countries and can also get 7% discount from coupons

Wow I can't believe how much the price goes up with just an hdmi port.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patrickl:
In Europe that HDMI dock can be a little cheaper:

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/samsung-...atible-charge-cradle-with-hdmi-out-p34089.htm
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireon123:
Those docks are NOT from Mugen!

They are from a company called Kidigi, which the logo says on the docks...

I have been using the dock with place for a 2nd battery for a month and it is really good. Fits perfectly and feels high quality. It can charge a standard sized battery, but not the extended battery. And they only fit the GSM model, not the VZW model...

If you have a MHL-adapter you do not need the HDMI dock, just plug the mhl adapter into the dock and you will be able to transfer the picture.

I bought mine from 4u-mobi.com

Can certainly recommend those docks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subvertz:
Posted about this a while back, seems there is a little more interest now that people realize how expensive the Samsung option is.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
I have the dock with the spare battery charger as well.

It fits nice and snug both with and without a case, though that may also be a complaint for some people. I used to have the Nexus One desktop dock, so it's a little annoying that the dock stays so well attached when I'm trying to take the phone out of it. If the Samsung dock wasn't so stupidly expensive I probably would have preferred to go official just for ease of docking/undocking.

The best feature is that the dock will actually support data through the USB port on it, so like others have mentioned you can transfer files while connected to a computer, or turn it into a HDMI dock with a MHL adapter.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shaxs:
I have a mhl adapter but two questions/concerns.

1) Can you charge the phone and output hdmi if you connect the MHL adapter?

2) The mhl adapter also needs power. If I am using this in the car, not sure how I will provide power to the MHL adapater and phone at the same time. Does the MHL adapter also charge the phone when it is plugged in?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
Ugh another gsm only option. I think I've finally had it and I'm going to try making my own.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fireon123:
1) Yes, but you will need to plug a charger into the mhl adapter.

2) Have not tried, but I guess that may be a problem since the mhl cable requires enough power. Maybe a cable from 12V to the MHL is enough, but I cannot guarantee that it will work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] earlyberd:
:confused:

These are just a regular micro USB charging docks. They will work fine with the i515.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] T-Keith:
The lte phone is thicker. It specifically says it won't work with the 515.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Free.rockstar:
Hello guys i have found a cool app :)

DESCRIPTION:

Record video from the screen of your

device to make app promos or tutorials.

Z-ScreenRecorder PRO needs ROOT

PERMITION to run.

TRY THE FREE VERSION FIRST TO ENSURE

THIS APP WORKS PROPERLY ON YOUR

DEVICE.

Z-ScreenRecorder allows record video

directly from the screen of your device to

the SD.

It Is designed to create promotional videos

of your apps,make tutorials or simply

record clips to use as help.

It's extremely simple to use:

-Tap Z-ScreenRecorder desktop icon or

status bar blinking icon to stop.

-Visit the video gallery to play, send or

delete the video.

Z-ScreenRecorder/"

only problem i think is that i guess it records video @ 10 fps only..
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] i'm_ever_dreaming:
With CM7 it doesn't work, with CM9 it's sooooo slow!

It isn't compatible with our phone.

Tried it also with the free apk file, doesn't work.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Free.rockstar:

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] i'm_ever_dreaming:
z-screen is slow

Screencast isn't compatible with optimus one
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Free.rockstar:

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Free.rockstar:

[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I know I have seen a fair number of posts about people who(also) wanted a MIUI port for the amaze, but since I think that is not going to happen anytime soon at least-- I was excited to see the file explorer that is included in MIUI that works on any phone. I can also testify that it seems to work rather well on the amaze..(though I haven't figured out how people have said they mount it as root and a few other things)

For those who don't know, it searches the phone for all the apks, videos, pictures, zips, etc.. and with a click you can see them all in one place. As horrible as I am at organizing, I end up with tons of zips and apks in weird places I'd never find again, the search function on all the file explorers I've used takes far too long, so this is my answer.

I know if you search the market(still can't get used to calling it the play store) you can find tons of apps that give aspects of miui(homescreen replacement, etc).

Now if there was an app that gives you functionality over the notification bar like miui has, or a miui lockscreen that worked with the custom lock screens people post, or.. well if anyone else knows of apps pulled out of miui like the one posted above that isn't in the market, let me know!

@faria: This ROM is really great, flashed it yesterday.

I like the theme and the collection of preinstalled apps, Bluetooth and everything works on my phone, except the compass. I don't remember if it worked on stock, but I never needed it, so your rom is really perfect for me.

Maybe You should mention in the description that you removed the letters in the apps list...

as for the letters in programs, they appear only after you have more than (don't know the eact number) of programs installed.

[HTC Rezound] swbf2lord:
I've noticed that the touch screen will sometimes press before I actually touch it. How can I decrease sensitivity. I'm using CleanRom Developer Edition 1.2.
[HTC Rezound] chupajr:
Yes! I've had this same problem too! No answer for you, though. :(

I believe I've had this all along, on GB, ICS, and a variety of ROMs, so I'm afraid it may be a hardware issue. But, I'm no expert...
[HTC Rezound] swbf2lord:
Thanks. Definitely no reason to go to the GNexus (Ugghh). I've heard that screen protectors help so I ordered some to try that out.
[HTC Rezound] deadheartsbeat:
I have a screen protector and this still happens. I never tried it without a screen protector so I don't know how much of a difference it will make
[HTC Rezound] swbf2lord:
Surely there is a way to fix this. Maybe in the build.prop?

Strangly im having a very sensitive touchscreen to. Especially when trying to use my keyboard. Ive calibrated as well
[HTC Rezound] transvin:
thanks
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Use a screen protector. Helps.
[HTC Rezound] swbf2lord:
Ordered screen protectors, they come in Monday. This is really the only issue I have with the device. If it's something that the phone just ships with I'm fine with it. If not, I'm wondering if I should return due to a faulty touch sensor.
[HTC Rezound] mighty_markus12:
I have a lcd protector on and it doesnt help at all.
[HTC Rezound] *Madmoose*:
I have set up many rezounds for our company and the strange thing is that this oversensitive behavior you are reporting is happening with completely stock phones as well. I've noticed it with 3 different Rezounds. Very strange behavior indeed. Complete resets of the phones doesn't seem to help. I rooted one and did a complete reflash of the phone and the problem went away. It's almost like the flash went wrong somehow, but very strange to see from a phone that came directly from Verizon brand new.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Personally I like the sensitivity. I would rather a nice light touch be registered then having to mash my finger on the screen. Makes typing easier.
[HTC Rezound] swbf2lord:
Thanks so much. I don't care so much as long as it's a device flaw that's not localized. Can it be fixed in any way?
[HTC Rezound] swbf2lord:
It's not a light touch. I've checked, it sometimes registers just above the touch screen.

I have yet to have the sensitivity be a problem... Maybe yall came from different phones than me

[HTC Rezound] joecoolinatl:
My rezound is completely stock/ not rooted/flashed or anything, I've noticed this since the day I got it in Nov. sometimes my fingers can be a few mm above the screen and it registers a touch. sometimes it doesn't bother me but sometimes if my finger is slightly above the search button and it registers it while i'm trying to do something else, it's pretty annoying
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
Stock, Rooted...

I've never seen this issue. The screen is very sensitive, but not any different from my previous phone (Orig Droid Incredible).
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Same. The sensativity is more like the iPhone. I hate to say it, but I loved the iPhone for that. I used to type so fast. Then I got my first android phone and had to slow down because it didn't seem to always register my input. The rezound I can type really fast again.
[HTC Rezound] patrickgerry:
I almost thought it was telepathy.
[HTC Rezound] Meticode:
I agree with this as well. I do notice it's way sensitive. I remember a few times where it registered a touch and I completely swore I never touched the screen. Anyway it doesn't bother me one bit.
