Alright, sounds like a plan. I will probably wait until my roommate gets home. I don't have any spare flash drives lying around :(

Thank you for your help!
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
Keep this in mind... S-off is great but you can fully permabrick your device with s-off, hard to do but it can be done. S-on blows but I'm pretty sure you can fix anything but a hardware failure with the unbrick method.
[HTC EVO 3D] closeone:
If I might suggest, take a look at the CD in my signature. There is a guide in post #3. It should help to ease the process a bit.

[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
I'm willing to take the risk. I've done a lot of reading and my roommate is familiar with what he's doing.

Now, I just have to wait for him to come home... I'm tired of waiting, I just want it to be done already! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
Thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate it.

You don't need to achieve root access to flash ROMs or kernels.....unlocking your bootloader via HTC dev or revolutionary is just fine

My vote to hboot 1.4 S-OFF
[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
Since my roommate is doing it for me (his computers and computer knowledge are way more capable than mine) I let him decide which way he was going to do it. We ended up going with the HTC bootloader unlock.

We got it successfully unlocked through the bootloader but it still doesn't have root access. Like, apps that require root won't work and he can't get anything to flash on it. Suggestions?
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Do you have a custom recovery installed on it after you rooted htc dev method? Also did you flash superusers on it?
[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
I think he's trying to get a custom recovery on it now (twrp). And he's mentioned something about superuser.

But he seems frustrated like something went wrong :-/
[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
Now he's talking about cwm but doesn't seem to be able to find a file that works.
[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
clockworkmod 4.0.1.4 -------> http://db.tt/hm3wkw1q

clockworkmod touch 5.8.0.2 --------> http://db.tt/yKUegldi

TWRP 1.1.1 -------> http://db.tt/ZrIEWf2B

TWRP touch 2.0 -------> http://db.tt/qHgIUljj

Recoveries versions other than these doesn't seem to work with hboot 1.5

CWM touch have a few bugs in this version , they may have fixed in the latest....

I suggest to try the 4ext recovery....

If you want to root your phone first flash any of these recovery using fastboot or flash image gui

then go to recovery flash this zip if you want SuperSU by Chainfire----------> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

OR

this one if you want Superuser by ChainsDD---->

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312971

and your stock Rom will be rooted...

you can always flash custom ROMs , they come pre rooted , so after flashing any recovery just flash any ROMs zip. file.....then you will have custom Rom with root access....
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Go for the CWM 4.0 never had any issues .. The lateset CWM has funky issues..
[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
Thank you so much! That is awesome! I really appreciate you getting those all in one place for me.

I finally have root access and am currently running infected rom eternity and am super stoked!

reaper24 - Thank you for your input as well. I got the cwm 4... my roommate just tried to do something by going to one of the newer versions... Whatever it was he was trying to do didn't work and he went back to 4, so I'll definitely be sticking with that for now.

Next order of business... unlocking my friends' phone. She got hers in January (preloaded with hboot1.5 and 2.17). Can't get it to unlock via HTC bootloader unlock. I did read that there is a problem getting the newer ones that shipped with the updated software to unlock. I understand you need the 2.08 RUU. I found an active link and downloaded the file... Now what do I do with the thing?
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Where did you find the working ruu I need one. I honestly think you just rename it to pg86img put it on the root of your sd card and hold down vol down and power. Once it loads into bootloafer it will scan the file and ask you if you want to flash it over.
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
If her phone has 2.17 then you can't run the 2.08. You need to run the 2.17 and then you can unlock it. I had to do that too.
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
For those of you going for the HTC Unlock (vs downgrade) i think maany of your questions & detailed walkthru can be found in the guide in my signature.
[HTC EVO 3D] Will32:
This is true... It's the guide I used when I HTC unlocked and its very helpful.
[HTC EVO 3D] AmbrosiaLyn07:
I'm not sure where exactly I got the link. I did a google search for "2.08 ruu evo 3d" and just started poking around until I found a link that actually had a download in it. But from what the next poster said, it sounds like I need the 2.17 ruu instead, which I guess makes sense 'cause the phone won't let you downgrade it.
[HTC EVO 3D] laie1472:
If you need the 2.17 ruu here's a link.

[Thunderbolt General] xredjokerx:
So I recently decided to switch to ThunderShed 1.5 from Infected Eternity, and the GPS was not working whatsoever. I spent the better half of the weekend flashing different sense roms to see what would yield a working GPS. (Performing the GPS lock in sense, then flashing immediately to ThunderShed)

I think I have achieved somewhat of a successful case, so I decided to share in case anybody was wondering.

Case 1:

Infected Eternity Sense 3.5 -> Thundershed

No working GPS, icon does not appear even after extended time.

Case 2:

Stock .5 and Thunderstick -> Thundershed

Random GPS fixes. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it doesn't. Takes a random amount of time before deciding to work.

Case 3:

Finally, BAMF Forever 1.10/1.11 -> Thundershed

First lock takes a little bit (with no icon), but after the first lock, GPS works after that without reboot. (Locking varies between position and conditions)

So there you have it. It took me a while to find a working BAMF Forever to flash from, but you can find it on their team BAMF website.

Does anybody have any other experience with this?

Edit: Also, I'm using the latest leaked radios from OpenMobile and was always using bundled kernels...
[Thunderbolt General] ponyboy82:
I've had luck flashing from both stock .9 and Bamf SoaB to Liquid 3.2 and getting a GPS fix. Regardless of the rom the first lock seems to always take a while, but after that it seemed quite a bit quicker.

Edit: This is all using the .9 OTA radios and kernel (except for the Imoseyon LeanKernel in Liquid)
[Thunderbolt General] jhudak:
gps.conf

Instead of flashing different Sense roms replace /system/etc/gps.conf with the stock file or run FasterFix from the play store, which is just as good.

The one that comes with ThunderShed 1.5 points to non-functional NTP servers and missing xtra.bin files.
[Thunderbolt General] xredjokerx:
Good information. I want there to be a clear guide for all those with GPS woes... I spent way too much time on it! =X

It depends how much common sense you have understanding permissions when installing applications.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Simply all the AV vendors report Android is being targeted more and more each day .

Note they are vendors but yes the risk will increase especially as the market is not as tight as it should be .

Do i have AV on my phone no as i have nothing to steal or run up large bills on it .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zamrock:
Necessary to a degree

To be honest i don't think viruses are a problem, if as mentioned above, you browse smart

i do do that, but i still installed a AV just-in-case :P

if you want a recommendation i suggest lookout AV
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adirc:
So ur say, it depends on the applications i install?

you know from time to time u download things from the internet or some other

markets...

In the other hand i belive if somone want to get into my phone by WIFI net i connect or somthing like that.

I dont belive the only way to get harm from threats its by installing somthing worng.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zamrock:
I think the main idea is that when you install from unknown sources (non-market) they are trustworthy sources

as for internet downloads same idea, like when i download on my phone i use the same websites i use on my computer

just like on your computer you wouldn't install random untrustworthy programs, or download from malicious website, apply that on your phone :p and you should be fine

I've never used and never had problems, but some advice, try to install AVG already heard of him very good
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aRc.:
You don't NEED one as such, but I think it's nice to know you're protected if an accident happens. If you think the same, I recommend Lookout. It has a basic scanner and AV for free and detected the test virus instantly so you know it works.

The paid version includes backup and phone locator but these can be acquired for free on other apps.

Up to you really, just treat your Android as you treat your PC; use only trusted sites and be careful of unknown/suspicious requests.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
In a word, not really... But you won't go wrong with lookout.

Avg is useless if I'm honest, it is so easy to fool that it is virtually worthless as security - change application name and it won't detect it :p

I received the phone in this state so I don't know what the last user has tried to do.

Its an O2 UK phone

Any ideas?
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
Your phone is still s-on so you can't flash a custom ROM. It has the old hboot, so you're lucky you cab use revolutionary to s-off your phone, and then flash a custom ROM on it. Search XDA for revolutionary s-off and you'll understand what I mean.

Sent from a phone waiting for kernel v3. Wake up HTC!!
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
I'd say put phone into bootloader then fast boot.USB and run an early stock ruu just to see if the phone is ok, or needs a warranty return

Do not update hboot to 2.xxx

I'd like to know what differences those of you who have used the update tool are experiencing with the new baseband. Signal strength? GPS? Battery life? I'm using the one from July 2011, but I don't know what the differences (if there are any) between the two. Also, does the new bb need a different ril as well? I, think I saw something about v21y? Any help would be appreciated :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
Don't know the difference, but attached is the ril file you need for the new baseband. I've also sent an email to the developer of getril so he'll update it soon, I hope. Just extract it to /system/lib. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Caliyork:
Sweet, thanks. I guess I'll flash the baseband and use this ril and report my findings.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ctowne:
I just installed the updated LG rom with the new baseband and android 2.3.4 today and it seems to have better signal. As for GPS I'm not sure because I never had a problem with it before. And I can't say anything about battery life yet as I just installed it around noon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Caliyork:
Just read that some people are having problems making calls on anything but stock roms after updating baseband. Anyone else got that issue?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] korny647:
I updated to the new stock v21y,

so far iv noticed the obviously new bb,

the key bored seems different, and the touch screen seems more responsive and snappier, if that makes any sence...

but i have also noticed that the colors seem brighter and more crisp.. can anyone els confirm that or is it just me?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Caliyork:
Yeah, I heard the keyboard got updated. I think the kernel is the same, so I don't know about the touch responsiveness. Could you do me a favor and flash a custom rom (anything other than stock), use the ril posted above, and let me know if you can make/receive calls?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] korny647:
Already read just about every thread dealing with v21y...

And several people have already stated that pretty much no custom roms are currently able to make calls with the new BB ... so no need to try

Just going to wait for the devs to assimilate the new bb into the Roms....

Shouldn't take them more then a couple days... at most. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Alakratt:
To those with the new baseband and with custom ROMs, have you tried to update your RIL using getRIL? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sibbor.getril&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
hey look up at the begining of this thread someone posted a link to the new ril with instructions.

It is in the second post
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BiafraRepublic:
So far, here are my impressions regarding v21y:

* Battery life: I have been off charger for 10 hours now, and battery has only just slipped down to 80%

* Signal: Any residual signal issues that were not fixed with v21e and T-Mobile's repurposing have been fixed on my end.

* Swype: The built-in Swype keyboard has been updated with a new interface that takes a bit to get used to.

* Browser: Open Window limit reduced to 4 (from 8 in v21e)

* General speed: It does seem a bit faster and more responsive than before. A quick check with Quadrant on my phone gave me a score of 2147

Other than that, it's not much different than v21e.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Caliyork:
I see, I see. Well it seems there are some benefits but, for me, they don't outweigh the fact that I wouldn't be able to use any other roms for now. I'll hold off on the new bb until our devs find a way to work with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] desynch-:
I sent the author of getril an email a few days ago and he updated his database to include the v21y ril, as long as you have the appropriate baseband
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MrFdhigsKp:
Does this baseband update apply to WIND G2X users as well? Or do we have to push it in our phones the hard way?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DupleX01:
Same handset so should work fine, however LG has already pulled it from the official update tool.

At this point the only option is to use the offline KDZ flash method.

Edit:

Please follow this thread and look for Core Memory's detailed instructions regarding the KDZ method:

You may need to fully wipe it.. you'll lose your data. This can be done through a connected PC.

Revert to the out-of-box state (stock/locked). There are many threads on this.

Or follow instructions here (you may need to register): MotoDev

Load up MZ604 Wifi (HWI69) - and go back through setup.

Once you enter your Google account - it will download your software and reload your wifi settings, etc.. Then let it go through the various OTA updates through ICS 404.

You'll have to redo your screens - but you'll get back a working Xoom.
