The OP of that thread is old school and simply uses adb to copy the radio file from his PC to his devices SD card, you could easily mount the SD card and then copy it using windows file manager.

just ensure that you verify the md5 sum of the radio on your device before you flash it.

which as you say can be done through bootloader (do ensure that settings->power->fastboot is off) and once the radio has been applied you move the file from the root of your sd.
[HTC Desire S] prawnguevara:
I know someone on T Mobile with the exact problem. She's had it for ages and even after sending it off for "repair" to T Mobile, it came back with the exact same problem. The build number came back exactly the same. The 1.47 version.

T Mobile are a joke.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
thats the problem the 1.47 build, simply move off of it!

if you're on 1.47 you can use revolutionary to become S-OFF then the whole development forum is your oyster

So i know where took change the boot animation at but it's not letting me at all. I can't edit the original boot animation file name, can't delete it, nothing.... Any suggestions? I'm using virtuous inquisition rom
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
You probably don't have write permissions on the internal storage.

(I'm using ES File Explorer. for the directions below. If you're using another file explorer the exact method may be slightly different, but the same steps apply. And I'm sure they aren't vastly different for other explorer apps.)

Long press the bootanimation file that's in there (The one you want to get rid of). Then select properties. Then change the Permissions to rw- rw- rw-.

Once you do that, just rename it to like bootanimation2.zip. You can leave it in the same directory in case you ever want the "V" animation back. Or you can delete it altogether.
[HTC Sensation] Sinistah_:
I don't see anything about editing permissions when i long press
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Nope. You wouldn't see permissions after long pressing because you're skipping a step.

You should see something about properties. (Again, I'm using ES File Explorer. And if you're not using ES and want to make it easy to follow my directions, go download ES File explorer from the market. It's free.)

Then in the properties menu you should see permissions.

Slow down and read the instructions carefully. It'll work! :)
[HTC Sensation] Sinistah_:
I didnt skip a step.. i went to properties n saw nothing about permissions. And im also using es.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
The pop up screen doesn't say "Permissions" towards the bottom? Right above the "Show Checksum" button?

If it does, hit the "Change" button to the right of Permissions.

It should look like the screens in this post....only less Star Trek Fonty....

[HTC Sensation] Sinistah_:
I dont see that option
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Alright....go to settings in es file explorer and make sure you have Root Explorer and Mount File System selected.

Then see if you can make the changes you need to.

SuperWipe mod By simonsimons34​

Ever need to clean out the crap in your phone. Some things recovery didn't quite get for you? Clean it up with SuperWipe. Format your phones NAND with 0's before you flash your next ROM.

Reccomended as a primer, or when having weird errors.

So i tried this... rly cool thing. I backed up my ROM, then wiped and restored again. I didnt mean to do do it i was just testing another ROM nvm, but when I got back to CM after some wipes the rom is a lot smoother now. Now im not sure if anything is different since I restored the ROM after some superwipes, but its smoother for sure.
[HTC Wildfire S] simonsimons34:
It erases data that recovery just says is writeable. That's all it does. Compared to just allowing it to be over written it allows 0s to be written in place
[HTC Wildfire S] pat da punk:
So is this run in recovery?

does it wipe SD card also (FAT partition)?

I having some wierd problems with my universals wifi ..

I can see my homenetwork when i scan for it. My Wifi is set up to a simple WPA password and no encryption.

My Universal sees the network and i can connect to it fine. The first thing i think is strange is when connecting to it, it has automaticly checked the box saying "This network is hidden" which it is not. I then continue and the rest of the settings it sees fine. I enter my password and it connects. Fine everything is working, but then suddenly it loses its connection and now i cant connect to it anymore. If i try to reconnect it just stops and gives up and then cant see the network anymore. I have to disable and enable wifi before it can see it again but i cant connect. The only way i can reconnect, is if i hard reset the device! A reboot doesnt help. I've tried another rom, but that didnt work at all, only telling me the password was wrong even though i knew it was not.

I have tried to dissable all security on the router just to test but it doesnt work either..

What is going on here ?

EDIT:

I just tried this with a number of different networks.. Dlink routers, Open networks, HTC Hero and HTC Wildifre S as hotspots.. All doing the same.. trying to connect and then it gives up ..

EDIT 2 :

I've now installed this rom, and with that rom theres no problems.. So i guess it has something to do with the drivers in WM6 roms for uni
[Kindle Fire General] marcelloLins:
Hi everyone, i am trying to root my kindle fire device , but the process is not working.

Here is what i've done:

1. Installed Drivers from "install_drivers.bat" file from KFU

2. Manually Installed Drivers

Still cannot make ADB Status to go "ONLINE".

The way i can make it "ONLINE" is by executing the "run.bat" file as administrator, but, doing this, leads me to error "cannot find tools/wget.exe". Ofc, because running with administrator privileges forces it to run from system32 folder.

I've already tried to run from the Command Prompt, even running the command prompt as administrator aswell.

Any idea of how to solve it ?

My Kindle is 6.3 Version. I bought it in February.

I used the KFU 0.9.5 version.

I also tried to install drivers manually, from a difference source ( a youtube video tutorial of how to root 6.2 version ), but, the device manager says the drivers are already up to date.

My device manager shows a "Android device" at the top of the list, but no "Kindle" or "Amazon Kindle" device in the whole list.

What am i doing wrong ?

Please, if you can't solve it, at least, bump this thread.

Thanks !
[Kindle Fire General] soupmagnet:
Try this... delete your drivers and configure and reinstall your own from the AndroidSDK

http://www.jayceooi.com/2011/12/13/how-to-install-kindle-fire-adb-usb-driver/

Then use command prompt to issue the appropriate adb and fastboot commands to manually root your device using the method posted here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24124828

If, after you reinstalled your drivers, you can't get adb to connect through command prompt, you may need to make sure that your user account has the appropriate permissions to perform such tasks (although I can't imagine why you wouldn't anyway).
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
I've seen you mention the Android SDK a number of times as it relates to driver installation. This is not meant as an argumentative post, but the SDK is entirely unnecessary if the user won't be "developing" software and just wants to install the drivers.

The SDK method is a lot of unneeded bulk to install the Java JDK, so you can install the Android SDK installer to get at the USB driver extras. Then the user has to go manually edit the .INF file with the necessary KF details before installing. Then create the .android folder in the right place and add a correctly named .INI file with more information. All these hoops create problems because most people who come here looking for help are flustered enough as it is and missing any one of these things or doing it wrong will just cause more issues that will have to be ironed out. It's just a bad idea all around.

And just in case you believe that the SDK drivers are somehow "better" than the KFU ones... they're not. All of the relavant files are identical. When I was writing my drivers guide, I checked them all to see if it could be a potential source for differences on why one install would work and not another. All of the md5 checksums for each and every .DLL and .CAT file match each other.

The only difference I found was in the source.properties files and that was just in the order of the name=value pairs at the bottom and the SDK distribution has an "Extra.NameDisplay=Google USB Driver" pair while the KFU one does not. I tried to find out how this file gets used in the driver installation, but the fact that I came up empty leads me to believe that it's a a non-player in the whole scheme of things.

Of course, the android_winusb.inf file is different between the two because some Kindle Fire specific information has already been added to it in KFU, but this is a good thing because you won't have to go do it manually and therefore skip an error prone task.

Please do not complicate matters by having people do this unnecessarily. If people want to install the drivers manually, they can point the driver update wizard to the KFU folder containing the android_winusb.inf file and it will do the same thing. If they use KFU's install_drivers batch file to install, they'll even get the .android folder created in the right place and the adb_usb.ini tossed in there with the correct values.

If you believe my reasoning is flawed, please let me know how installing from the SDK makes a difference. If you have a sound argument, I'm perfectly willing to admit my wrong, change my position and my guide as well.
[Kindle Fire General] Thepooch:
I am inclined to agree with you with so many different instructions with different levels of experience how the new user can achieve root and proper driver installation has become muddled to the point where people are getting stuck in modes rendering thier devices unseen by thier computers. Stuck in fastboot or recovery or soft and hard bricked with batteries draining and time running out to achieve a fix. There is a serious need for a clear easy exploit for very low experience level OS dedicated. KFU worked perfect for me and so did adb but with others it has created a problem if I had the knowledge base to build a one click wonder I would but its way out of my experience level even though I have successfully rooted every device I have 2 kindles a galaxy tab 10.1 and my droidx after the .621 ota for droidx. So where do we go from here?
[Kindle Fire General] soupmagnet:
Yes, I know.

The point is to get people to forget about KFU for a minute and learn to do it the right way first (so as not to get distracted) so when they ARE ready to use a utility like the KFU they will know what to do when problems arise. You learn to do it the hard way first (one that will be around LONG after the KFU is gone) and THEN you can take shortcuts. That's pretty much standard procedure for learning anything.

I think it's safe to say that the KFU has caused more problems for newbies than has helped. And the ones it has helped usually have to learn the old way anyway. I'm just trying to get rid of the middleman.

Just think of how great this place would be if everyone knew how to how to do this on their own.
[Kindle Fire General] soupmagnet:
That being said, the people that I told to do it the "hard" way haven't needed any further help.

And if it does come back to bite me in the ass, you can rest assured, I'll eat my words.
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
I get your point about KFU and I think my guide is evidence of that. However, I'm in complete disagreement about your suggestion for the driver installation process. I don't believe fixing one's Kindle Fire should first involve learning the roundabout way of installing the drivers. In my mind, the KFU utility is entirely separate from the driver installation batch file. I see no good reason make that part of it any more difficult than it has to be. I also think your middleman analogy is a bit flawed. It's more like having the guy go chop down a tree in the dead of night when you've already got a stack of firewood for him.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 PM ----------

So, instead of totally hijacking this thread for the sake of an argument...

I think you need to confirm that your drivers are installed properly. Regardless of what path you take to get them installed, pay attention to the middle part of this post...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23747671&postcount=2

and make sure that you are seeing the right things in the device manager. You'll have to verify that part of it is working right, so Windows and the Kindle Fire are able to communicate with each other before moving ahead in your troubleshooting.
[Kindle Fire General] soupmagnet:
Let me say just this and I'll let it be. Ask yourself, "What's more likely to stand the test of time? Android SDK or KFU?" What happens when KFU becomes obsolete/unmaintained and is no longer hosted for people to download? What happens when KF owners move on to other Android devices not supported in such a way? Configuring and installing device drivers is a basic skill that every Android device owner should have anyway, and it causes no harm pushing people to learn it. I'm not breaking any rules by doing so and until now you are the only one to have had a problem with it.

That being said, don't let my disagreement fool you into thinking I have anything anything less than the utmost respect for you. - Quite the contrary in fact. I personally have learned a lot from you and many others here and I feel it is my duty to pay it forward. I apologize if the method I use offends you, and if others here feel the same way I will definitely take it into consideration.
[Kindle Fire General] kinfauns:
Believe me, I'm not offended by this discussion. We are just having a respectful disagreement over a mutually shared desire to help people who want to mod their KF. I understand that you aren't doing anything wrong. I'm not wagging my finger at you or yelling, "my way or the highway!" It's just my belief that going the SDK route is error prone and the cost/benefit of doing it that way may be too high for most users to bear.

Let me share an experience I had with someone who PM'd me for help after deciding to install the drivers from the SDK. After days of back and forth, he figured out that he had created the adb_usb.ini file as a text file and Windows was hiding the file suffix. So, he actually had an adb_usb.ini.txt file and with Windows Explorer only showing the adb_usb.ini part, he hadn't really considered the possibility that the file could have been named incorrectly. It's the silly things that will trip up even a knowledgeable user.

I'm not saying never to the SDK... I'm just saying it shouldn't be the first choice. I certainly won't be upset if you decide to instruct users to install the SDK just for the drivers, but they might be if they figure out they could have gotten to the same place with KFU's driver installer in 1/20th of the time.

system settings...

the app drawer w/ widgets...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aji_s:
They say G is under clocked I dont think so.There may be some difference in governor logic but max speed is same both at 1.2 GHz.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ambar_hitman:
Problem is that the OMAP doesn't keep the max speed in benchmarks. If you can see the graphs again, whenever the CPU is at 1.2 Ghz, the benchmarks of I9100 and I9100G are the same. Only thing weak is GPU, but for 800x480 screen, PowerVR SGX 540 is very good. And then you have reduced heat.

Frankly, I listened to same song on both I9100 and I9100G on same Philips head phones, and couldn't find a difference. So, its subjective, unless some sound tests and graphs etc prove to me that I9100G is superior.
