Sorry man...you are extremely unlucky.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
So I just got this HTC Vivid and some how I managed to put it in a bootload loop. I've flashed many ROMs in the past without any problems at all, but failed to do so on this one. The ROM I tried flashing was "[ROM] Dark Raider 1.0 [4.0.3][Aroma Installer][4-13-2012]" (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1586613) Everytime I turn the phone on it would just keep rebooting over and over, I tried reflashing a different ROM and now every time I turn on my phone it automatically goes into fastboot. I've tried looking around but I haven't found a solution to this problem. Anyone help?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] daspazz:
Try this...............

I think Dark Raider is not for the Holiday or Vivid. Not sure. I do believe its developed by pirateghost, and he could be your "savior". Go to goo.im (Goo inside me). http://goo.im/devs/pirateghost/vivid and look in the rum_float folder and download beta4 NOT BETA.5. Then flash with that and you should be good. Flashing instructions can be found in the Vivid Super Guide thread..

You can also try the rooted OTA ICS firmware in the root of pg's directory to get back to a base ICS working ROM. I know that both of those work as I've been where you are now 3 times in the last 5 days due to playing with my phone and flashing ROMS. I tried pg's beta 5 last night and soft-bricked my Vivid twice, then recovered it it with Beta 4 and didn't loose a thing. For some reason I thought flashing the ROM (zip) over system was a good idea! D'0H!!!! :rolleyes:

All you have to do is use the third method in the flashing ROMs section close to the bottom of post 1 from the Super Guide link above. Just copy the boot.img out of the zip and flash.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot

Don't forget to flash the kernel too. I am using faux123s beta 4 kernel for now. works great for a beta!

If you need more help ask and I will do my best to get you back up and running! :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
Dark Raider is made by nottach and it works on the vivid, Or at least it did on mine :)

Have you flashed the boot.img file?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
Thanks a lot I'll give it a try later today and post back!

That was the first thing I did... I grabbed the boot.img from the zip and flashed it with adb.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jirv311:
Dark Raider is almost specifically for the Vivid as it was built from an AT&T Vivid base. You don't flash the boot.img through ADB, you flash through fastboot.

Sent from my HTC Vivid
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jirv311:
Ouch, quite a bit of fail right there. :D
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
xD what pirateghost would say lol
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
That's what I meant. I went into the directory with fastboot and added the command prompt there and went from there.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] iStatiK:
Is your phone plugged in? Are you coming from a previous ICS ROM? If not, you have to lock bootloader, flash, then unlock.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
With the bootloader locked it won't let me go into Recovery though.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
It sounds like you need to flash your boot.img twice and you do that using fastboot. Im not understanding why istatik is telling you to relock. Maybe to return to stock? But you should flash the boot.img thats either in the OP or in the rom zip file itself through fastboot as

stated above. That boot.img file seems to be why your bootlooping.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
This is exactly what I'm doing: I grab the boot.img from the zip file and place it in the same directory on my PC with my fastboot/ADB. I put my phone in fastboot and plug it into my PC. I then open up a command prompt and change the directory to my folder with fastboot/ADB. I then type the command: fastboot flash boot boot.img and am prompted with:

C:\ADB>fastboot flash boot boot.img

sending 'boot' (3860 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.820s]

writing 'boot'...

OKAY [ 1.810s]

finished. total time: 2.630s

After that I enter the command: fastboot reboot-bootloader and my phone reboots and goes back into bootloader. When I try to open up Recovery my phone opens it for a second and then just tries to reboot normally, and bootloops.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
Try doing "fastboot reboot" without the bootloader part.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
Once I do that it doesn't reboot into fastboot though so I have to take my battery out. Is it supposed to do that?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
fastboot reboot just reboots into your rom. If your having to take your battery out then it looks like there is still a problem.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
I returned my phone to stock so now it works. Is there a certain thing I need to do before flashing a ROM just so I can be sure I don't mess up again?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
Just make sure you unlock your bootloader and flash your boot.img file twice with the rom.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] 12Fully:
By flashing the boot image twice you mean just being typing this command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" twice?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] lmftmf:
Yes.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] daspazz:
Just be sure!!

That you are flashing a ROM for the Vivid or Holiday device.

I think the Dark_Raider file might be since it's in the Vivid development Forum. But I haven't used it.

Look in the developmental thread and read some more.
[LG Optimus 2x] tablighs:
Hi,

Has anyone tried an earpiece with built-in media remote (play, stop, fwd etc)?

Does the remote works for O2X?

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
I dont know if it changed but when i bought my headset there was no android specific headsets, they were all deaigned for i-devices and therefore not everything works.

It might also depend on the rom that is used.

Volume does not work

Forward, backward and play should work (might depend on rom)

Accept calls and call last should also work (might also depend on rom)

That is my experience with sennheiser adidas headaets.
[LG Optimus 2x] tablighs:
Ok thanks!

Anyone tried nokia earpiece with media button on their androids?
[HTC Incredible S] classnetd:
Tried to do a search but can't really find anything that matches. My friend had a blackberry and he was showing me the action logs on it which shows what has been clicked and press or what/when apps had been ran/installed, etc. Something quite similar to like in windows event viewer or file auditor.

I was wondering if we have such apps. I am not talking about catlog and all those logging stuffs as they display way too much things.

Nearest that i can get are those spy logging apps which doesnt really serve the purpose here.

Any ideas guys?

I have no idea how to fix this. I've tried three roms eaglssblood ice singhui and Hellfire Phoenix. I installed Trinity on Phoenix yet it is still draining battery. Why?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] NekoNyapii:
Try calibrating your battery.

There is a rogue app in your drawer. download watchlist app, it will keep track on other apps which are hogging your system.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
Battery calibration won't and doesn't do anything useful... its more then likely an app or something running constantly. What's your screen on times? Post a screenshot of your battery usage.

I'm on 2.3.4 with practically all the bloat and more removed, holy hell battery is terrible for me... if testing to find rouge apps doesn't work I'm gonna factory reset and just not install any thing. Today I didn't hardly use my phone (no work) sat around on the computer, paid some bills watched some movies and TV, sent two text messages and read 3 emails battery was at 65% after 3 ½ hours... 3 of which was idle time and screen off. Never had it so bad before.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kwes1020:
Anytime. That's usually the first thing I do when I install a rom based on lg stock. That app runs constantly eating data and ram. You will usually gain almost 1mb of open ram by just deleting it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Ya I knew there was something I was missing, considering my average use on most 2.3.3 roms would be at least 16-20 hours, I was barely getting 10-11 hours after the update. So thanks again!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
On what type of usage? I can hardly get more than 8 hrs on medium usage .

I pretty much don't play games and don't stream music or anything like large data usage. I call text browse and read articles and such, XDA and Facebook is about it for other usage though, light in most eyes, and I under-clock the phone to 700's usually.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] daxecutioner24:
Not to say anyone wont do it, but that's a hard thing to do, 700 underclock Most Oc of to 1.4 lol.

Funny though at 700 it probably runs just as fast as default 1ghz speed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] daxecutioner24:
As far as these phone have come battery are a step behind,more on dual core phones.Although if battery is such a big deal and you absolutely need it just buy extra battery and chargeable adapter,problem solved
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Ya I agree, the phone at 600ish on stock kernel runs just fine for texting and calls and checking Facebook... usually what I run when I'm out at bars with my friends cause it usually ends up being a weekend without my charger, I've over clocked the phone maybe twice, no point in my eyes lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] natecglenn:
When underclocked to 750 or below 1 processor is not running and vice versa :cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowrider262:
i can confirm this helped battery life, thanks! also if any of you still have telenav on the 2.3.4 update, getting rid of that helped me out too

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
So I've finally gotten to that point, I can't take this verizon crap anymore. I have a nandroid backup and Ti ready to go. SO I started with installing Verizon crap, I removed VZ navigator, Backup Assistant, and Vcast Apps. After doing this now my Playstation games (both Crash, and ones I made myself) do not show in the launcher anymore, but I tried them and they do run. I guess thats cause of Vcast or???

That problem is livable, the worse problem is I am trying to convert the stock installed games (Asphalt 6 for example) to user apps to move to SD, when I do that it just says "Processing" and seems to sit there forever, I rebooted and restored my backup and tried again, and am still having the same problem. Does it just not work?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rogue Leader:
anyone? Bueller?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacklebott:
There's an app called preinstalled service or something, that app is needed to play psx games
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 216Monster:
Ha that's a classic!

But your correct, without vcast my apps didn't show up in game launcher and if you removed pre installed service .apk then they wont show even with vcast .

There's a terminal line you can add to make all apps installable to sd but it will also make all new downloaded apps Install to sd and I felt like downloads were slower, not that 3g is fast in the first place though.. I'll look up the line to punch in terminal and edit my post here

Edit: I think its "pm setinstallocation 2"

That's what I could remember I'll look it up officially though

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZed:
Well, after flashing the latest Miui V4 from Miui Scottland and Miuiandroid, i hate to say that its utterly ****. This is my opinion btw.

After flashing(correctly of course, wipe all including system and dalvik). Slow, buggy unresponsive. Applying a theme just caused me a boot loop and im going back to CM9. If Miui was the only rom, I'd go back to its GB roms. Does anybody else experience this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busterdev:
miuiv4 doesn't fully support themes yet and contains many annoying bugs

better to wait it out. keep reading the usual weekly updates and the buglists in the meantime. so till then use gb if you want or go cm9/aokp if you want some ice cream
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
miuiandroid's v4 is as stable as the samsung base.

v4 does'nt support themes yet. leave it as default and u'll find its as bug free as samsung base.

wait till they update the base to the latest lp7, which i think is much better than the previous ones.

I had the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 before and I recently switched to T-mobile and got the LG G2x. I was wondering if it would be possible to port the Timescape UI to ICS or GB?

Its a little complicated to extract the system.img

1.Unpack .ftf file(as .zip or .rar) to get the file : system.sin

2.Use SIN2IMG.exe to transfer system.sin into system.img

3.Use unyaffs.exe to upack the system.img into resources you need

I did some research and found that all the tools are here. Thanks again for looking into it!

[Kindle Fire General] Android16:
I had to uninstall Hellfire CM7 and ReloadedROM CM9 because neither one allows me to install any of the "Kindle Fire Edition" games that i bought off amazon store.

In addition, most of the games don't show up in google play store either. My phone can't download them as it says not compatible either so I have no way to officially download the games that I bought.

I think we have to use MODACO ROM for now. It is the only usable ROM if you want to watch movies, use Play music and play the games for Kindle Fire without frustration. No CM7 or CM9 that I have tried can do any of this as well as MODACO.

If anyone can come up with a way for the games to work please let us know it would make those great ROMS worth using. I know the HWA will be solved soon with the new kernel, so maybe that would fix most trouble?

[General Questions and Answers] dbethards:
I'm almost certain that I know the answer to my question. I have tried finding xda development on ROM's for numerous phones using the CDMA technology and find they are almost non-existent. I assume this is primarily due to the market share that GSM phones has...one internet post put it @ 70%. Is this theory plausible?
[General Questions and Answers] PakAttack1994:
Probably, considering there are a lot more development going on GSM phones as opposed to CDMA. That doesn't mean CDMA development is non existent, specifically the Sprint HTC EVO, EVO 3D, E4GT, etc.
[General Questions and Answers] dbethards:
Non-Existent was too general, I should've mentioned my CDMA carriers and....

...specifically US Cellular and Verizon. I was looking at their various Samsung offerings. What can I say about that, <g>. They are the 2 major carriers where I "play." I am currently on i Wireless, a subsidiary of T-Mobile, which of course is GSM, and I have found lots of development for my Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. I am considering switching to a 4G phone and one of those carriers which have signals where I play, as my carrier doesn't and probably never will. I have thoroughly enjoyed the after marker ROM's here and many know how "bad" Samsung is about firmware upgrades. I guess choices one way or the other need to be made.
