Personally, I see rootzwiki gaining more and more credibility and popularity as time goes on. Look at the GNex forum in particular. Huge. As has been mentioned, overall, Rootz attracts the way more experienced and tech savvy end user. There's virtually none of the community drama found here at XDA. Its simply not tolerated and more importantly not expected which is why more and more of the Android community of developers and end users go there.

I bet with AOKP for the Prime at Rootzwiki now, we'll begin to see development explode. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see other developers transition there as well as new developers.

Looks like the thread's back.... up and running! :D

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jerdog:
I understand your desire to support jermaine. However without a full understanding of what the situation was you create angst and whatnot. This is not the way to handle it.

Nor is violating one of the XDA rules in the process:

I HAd Niks Trinity Xl Installed in my incs i was facing some force closes and hangs..so i went into EXT4 touch Recovery and fixed permision..to my suprise Recovery Hanged there...after successfully fixing permission

so i pooped out the battery and reboot the devbice hunged at htc logo

wiated for long lime 15 mins

tried this 2-3 times

again poped out the battery and booted into recovey

wiped cache

wiped dalvik cache

but still the device wont boot

stuck at htc logo

what is the issue can anyone please help me..

now when im entering in recovery ext4 is saying system not accessible please partition system..if u have chnged hboot the partition all except system...
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
The recovery is telling you to format, did you? What version 4ext are you using?
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
ext4 v1.0.0.4 rc3

i havent formated the system yet
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
im really not that into such thing have alreadyy caused many issues so dont want futher..so what would happen when i exavtly format the /system partition...and i guess the recovery is also lagging...dont know why..

its saying recovery is in safe mode..
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Formatting system is similar to wiping in the way that you will have to restore it from a nandroid or more wisely, reinstall the entire rom. But reformatting may fix your phone if it is a corrupt partition that is the issue.

Edit: you may need to reinstall/install different recovery. I would seriously consider flashing a different rom also.

[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
i formatted the system and rebooted the recovery still recovery is saying

recovery in safe mode.system not accessible please enter wipe menu and format system.if you have changed hboot then choose to format all partition(except sdcard)

afterwards reboot recovery
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
recovery is saying format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p25

so i should change the recover to clockwork mode..??after doing that should i again try to format system..????
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
how can i flash another rom i cant access my sdcard without the usb cable..dont have a card reader tooo....
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I'm sure you are not saying that you have no USB cable. You flash recovery in fastboot mode, similar to how you flash boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Change "recovery.img" to name of the .img you are using.

Edit: misread your question. You should be able to mount your sdcard in recovery and then copy the rom over that way. I suggest you reflash recovery first.
[HTC Incredible S] Endoclusian:
i have usb cable

Try flashing your custom rom. If it does not work, you may have to create a goldcard and run an ruu.

i am not able to flash the rom..installation aborted any rom i try..now what..?????how do i get abt the gold card and the ruu
[HTC Incredible S] :
can i use ur script for downgrade..i might also get an s-off with that..????? would that be advisable..???? im still confused how the hell did such a big error happed..??? i just ran fix permissions thats it...
[HTC Incredible S] :
bro how do i create a gold card..whiich ruu to flash help me...!!!
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
To be able to create a goldcard you need access to another smartphone capable of using an sdcard, preferably Android.

At this point you cannot use my script because your phone is not operational.

You may have fried your emmc chip by removing your battery while the phone was booting but at this point its just as likely to be a corrupt partition. Hopefully running an ruu utility can fix this.
[HTC Incredible S] incrediblealex:
Reading this I was thinking fried Emmc chip is likely
[HTC Incredible S] :
what is friedn eemc chip..is that bad..???
[HTC Incredible S] :
so does that mean nothing can be done..??????now..?????
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
You can try what I wrote in my last post. Otherwise your last option is try get it fixed under warranty.
[HTC Incredible S] :
do you really think it would be possible to get claim under warranty ..and what do i do for that..?????
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Yes I do believe you could get it fixed under warranty as the faulty emmc chip is a known and common issue with this phone that's unrelated to rooting. You would have to contact the HTC service centre in India or where you purchased your phone.
[HTC Incredible S] :
i have created the gold card now how do i flash the RUU..???
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Download the ruu and run it. I have to sleep its after 4 here.
[HTC Incredible S] :
can u just specify which rom..???please..im on hbott 2.00000 thas why..pls
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I need output from: fastboot getvar version-main

You also need to lock your bootloader before you run ruu: fastboot OEM lock

Have you dropbox? Pm me your drop box email, I might be able to provide an ruu.

I had a similar problem and tpbklake helped me out step by step. He normally helps topics like these and he's awesome. Dunno y he's not onto this already. Try PMing him or check out my thread...'stuck on white htc logo'. Mine was s-off though. hope this helps...

I haven't seen anything more to comment on that nonverbose hasn't told him already. When I stated reading this thread this morning it was apparent that nonverbose had already been working with him.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
For that issue normally a reboot of the PC or connecting to a different USB port directly into PC helps. You may need to try on another PC altogether if that doesn't work.
[HTC Incredible S] FCArsenal:
From what I understand I suggest you would be better off if u s off your device. Even if you have to give your phone for repair you can revert back to s on quite easily and no one would know you rooted it in the first place. Chk these threads......

guys pls someone help me i dont know now what to do..nothing is working...

Extract rom.zip from the ruu, rename to PG32IMG.zip and copy to the sdcard. Restart phone in hboot mode. I'm not sure if it will work as you still have an unlocked bootloader but you have little other choice.

tried that too..nothing happens at all....it just check for pg32img.zip and again loads back to the bootloader

I'm sorry bro. I know how you feel since I was in a similar position. Just that I do not know much about 4ext and fried emmc chips. I have sent a PM to madmaxx82 since he is the creator of 4ext. Waiting for a response......keep your fingers crossed

Was browsing through for fried emmc chips and found out that it is a common problem unrelated to rooting. So you can argue with HTC that you tried everything AFTER the emmc was fried. I came across a thread in which a guy sent his phone to HTC ithout the SD card and battery and got it back repaired even though he was rooted with s off (alpharevx).
[HTC Incredible S] madmaxx82:
Hi,

I've gotten the message from FCArsenal.

You are not able to relock your bootloader?

fastboot oem lock doesn't work?

Why do you think that your chips are bad?

fastboot erase cache for example doesn't work either?
[HTC Incredible S] :
noeps even that doesnt work

in fastboot cant perform the following task

erase cache

erase system

moreover cant even flash an RUU for my Build..now that is the limit..!!!!!

i did poped out my battery while it was booting cause it remained hanged there...so acoording to nonverbose and other i have fried my eemc chip...

Hi All

Just did a check for update via my tab, and it is, as I type, downloading the ICS Update!

Anyone else, if you havent done so, check via System Update in Settings.

As per the title, I live in the UK (Midlands).

Running stock rooted 3.2.1 Gen 1 f/ware

At last, the much talked about topic has arrived.

:-)
[Acer Iconia A500] fblasot:
Do you have 3.2.1 com_gen1 or ww_gen1 ?
[Acer Iconia A500] TheReaperUK:
Yeah your right, downloading now, just outside london very near heathrow airport:)
[Acer Iconia A500] fblasot:
Sorry for my English...

What 3.2.1 do you have com_gen1 or ww_gen1 ? Look in setup/tablet info...
[Acer Iconia A500] Menace2you:
I'm in the netherlands and just got the update.
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
wtf?!?! im in london right now checking and it says your device is up to date?
[Acer Iconia A500] TheReaperUK:
Sorry forgot to check before update, but now ICS is installed it's ww_gen1.

Hope that helps.
[Acer Iconia A500] chismay:
reaper your in london and you've got the update? why am i not getting it? lol
[Acer Iconia A500] fblasot:
Thanks anyway.

Me too I'm on ICS, I used the zip files downloaded from vache website http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=files&file=151
[Acer Iconia A500] TheReaperUK:
I only turned on my wifi and it pop up with update option.

It's all installed now and all my apps are still there and settings so it did not wipe/format and google+ seems to be in the rom now.

Acer ring is not in the rom or i dont know how to use it?

So far seems ok.

If your not rooted:

Did you install/update the "ICONIA TAB Update Enhancement" (Thats how its written in play store) in the last 2 months, if not do it now from the play store.

If your rooted then i have no idea.

[Acer Iconia A500] TheReaperUK:
I not sure then, could try powering off tab then power back on, turn wifi off before power down then once booted up turn wifi back on, but this is just a wild guess.

1) go to http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=files&file=151

4) sit back and relax while tab is updating

Truthfully these OTA's that I am hearing about are starting to sound like Leaked versions and or Test OTA's considering the Lack of the Acer Ring that Acer has been talking about for awhile that is being released in the OTA. I mean I could be wrong and Acer Could have changed their plan but still it seems odd to me that they would considering how many people are looking forward to playing with that item. Either way hope to see my update tomorrow.
[Acer Iconia A500] tigermrk:
There is a thread in the dev section about rooting the ics leak version which works with the official build also. Only problem is they doesn't seem to be a way to unroot it in that thread but I'll just deal with that when a new update ( if 1 ever comes) arrives.

wipe cache and dalvik, that should help but you might have issues. If you face issues then you better make space for backups on your sdcard
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Just transfer stuff over from your sd to pc, then backup what you need, then do a nandroid, then full wipe, then flash new rom, then put the nandroid onto pc and put what you want back on card, restore and you're done. Or sd cards are cheap, get a bigger one
