Task

I have flashed this rom many times and no issues with my phone. Although I have been lurking in these threads as a NOOB, it is apparent to me that you have to:

follow instructions in OP before flashing

Read all the of the thread before flashing

Make sure that you have the entire zip file downloaded before flashing...

Not sure what is the problem, but it is not anything with zip I down loaded.. I did both.The other files such as Shomans or AOKP as they are better than any stock rom...

Thank you for all that you do...

i think i may have said something about it, but just wasn't sure what was happening. there were too many "it could be this" and "it could be that" stuff being mentioned. but i did however make an attempt for 2 days trying to replicate the brick. i have no qualms about buying a new phone so i wasn't worried at all about bricking. i tried every way that anyone mentioned plus more but i still couldn't get it to brick. so i'm still iffy about the whole thing. i just said screw and took down the thread. considering A TON of people don't like to read OP's and follow directions i thought it would be the best thing to do.:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n7slc:
Thanks for the hard work on it anyway Task. I read the OP. I read every post in the thread and then I read the OP again. I have flashed and reflashed it several times. Flashed several kernels and still running great.

The original OEM battery and earpiece failed within a day of each other so I am back to using my Atrix until I can get a warranty replacement on the i777.

Thanks again Task...it was fun while it lasted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nbell13:
Lol, I just bought the GNex from Google Play myself... Gonna need to switch back to T-Mobile in the fall when I move back to my hometown... AT&T has **** for signal there :p That, and I'm finally sick of touchwiz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Yeah that's why I use AOKP I can't stand touchwiz ics
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shinji257:
Lol. I installed nova to take care of that. Do want some of the other stuff so have to leave tw in some way but at least I don't have to look at it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
No - even after the re-repack I believe a few more bricks happened.

Looks like the UCLD3 leak (and maybe all leaks) have the same bug that is in all of the Epic 4G Touch leaks and all Chinese Galaxy Note ICS leaks, along with the SHW-M250S/K/L official ICS releases and source code - it's a nasty one that can cause severe hardbricks if you wipe in recovery.

When I say "severe hardbrick" - I mean that the eMMC chip actually gets damaged to the point where not even JTAG recovery services like mobiletechvideos.com are able to recover the device.

It's looking like UCLD3 has the same issues that SiyahKernel 3.1rc6 had (which was rebased on SHW-M250L sources).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] othermark:
This is probably like some of the xbox360 and ps3 bricking updates -- an update changes something in the way the device operates. In those update -- spinning the media faster or turning on gpu acceleration of the UI, etc.. some devices can't take the change in the baseline for which they were certified and die.

Perhaps they changed voltages, media parameters, etc -- without source, we won't know for sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ricktat:
Sweet.... I want one of them Xbox with ICS:eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shinji257:
Yea this is one of those oddities. On mine I did do a wipe using the ld3 leaked kernel (trying to get ld3 installed) and although it wouldn't boot it also didn't hard brick. I ended up wiping using Odin and starting over.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Galaxy_Cat:
Thank you for your insights, while I understand very little in the way of repacks and source code, I can grasp (beginning to) smart, safe flashing practices. When you share your thoughts on these subjects, the non-dev community is so much the better for it (though there will never be a silver bullet to the spreading of BS through the grapevine).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raduque:
And it looks like I'm still the only one who wants Samsung stock roms.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Pseud0logik:
There are still plenty of great TW GB ROMs around. Unfortunately, people who want a stable, safe stock ICS ROM will have to wait until Samsung gives you one. Without the developers we wouldn't have ICS on our phone AT ALL, so complaining is without merit (unless you are complaining to Samsung).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifthelement:
Hi Everyone ;

I am using bezke ICS ROM which is an AOKP ICS 4.0.4 ROM. Recently I recorded some videos and after I watched them on my PC, I found out they are quite laggy :( I compared them with my some older videos which were smooth with same 720p resolution. one thing that I noticed was that smooth videos which were recorded by another ROM have 3gp extension but new laggy videos are mp4. unfortunately as I am a frequent ROM changer I dont remember what ROM is used to record 3gp videos.

I hope someone can help me to resolve this issue. is it possible to change camera app to improve video quality ? is there a camera app which records in 3gp format ?

Regards
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karendar:
You have tons of camera apps out there, LGCamera is really liked amongst people who hate their Camera, otherwise you have ICS Camera... Camera Zoom Pro...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tolis626:
I think LG camera doesn't work when recording video with CM9 though.It doesn't here anyway.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifthelement:
Yes , LGCamera didnt work. the ROM laggy camera is still better than LGCamera,ICS Camera, Camera Zoom and etc.

When I downgrade the quality to SD the lag goes away completely. isnt it possible to use GB ROM cameras on CM 9 ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kojoti75:
LGcamera work great with AOKP same with ICS Camera (resurrection rom)

[Atrix 4G General] Vul:
HellllOOooOoOo!!

Ok, here goes. First off, I searched. A lot. There is so much conflicting information and opinions out there. I hate to annoy you pros with noob-ness but I have to. Sorry!

Here is the quick version:

Friend gave me an Atrix 4G. He is big on experimenting, rooting, custom ROMs and all that. I am not. At all. I want to use it on t-mobile. I DO get a signal and can text. MMS doesn't work and motoblur wont let me set up an account. This results in no access to email other then Gmail. Basically, I want to bring the phone back to its original (or close as possible) state. Hopefully, that will solve some of my issues.

-Android Version

2.3.4

-Unlocked

-Rooted

-Build Number

olympus_hktw-userdebug 2.3.4 4.5.2A-5_OLH-3110614 test-keys

-Clockwork recovery mod installed (if that matters)

I am not THAT tech savvy but can follow instructions well. I've already been messing around but cant seem to get RSD Lite to actually flash properly. I dont care for customs ROMS, hacking and tinkering. I just want this phone to work as well as possible.

Can anyone give me some personal assistance? Please? Step by step would be great. I'll be refreshing this page often in hopes of responses.
[Atrix 4G General] co.ag.2005:
It sounds like you need to set up a proper T-Mobile APN. (you have a T-Mobile SIM card currently installed?)

If you can get on Wifi, try to go the the Play store and download Tweakker or other APN utilities that enter the APN for your based on your carrier.
[Atrix 4G General] Vul:
Yes. I have a t-mobile SIM card installed. My concern is what the previous owner may have done and whatever ROM is loaded on this phone. Can I somehow bring it back to stock or get a super stable, close to stock as possible ROM first and then start addressing the quirks I have?
[Atrix 4G General] co.ag.2005:
Is this an AT&T branded phone? I'm not sure if getting back to stock is necessary, and if you do get back to stock, you might be SIM locked to AT&T (I could be wrong however). If you want to flash a fresh, stock ROM but still be rooted, SIM unlocked, etc., find a 2.3.6 Fruitcake in this forum or try NottachTrix 4G ROM.

however, I'd wait till others weighed in before doing anything. Honestly, I'd try getting your APN (download Tweakker app and walk through the steps) going now and if that solves your issue, your ROM might be working fine for you... my $0.02

oh, and welcome to XDA!
[Atrix 4G General] ghost_og:
1. Download the fruitcake .zip you want (webtop also, if you want it)

2. Do a full wipe with fastboot (search if you're unsure how to)

3. Boot into recovery and flash the .zip you downloaded from step 1

4. Reboot and you're done

This will put you back to stock. I can't remember if fruitcakes are pre-rooted, but if not you can easily root again.
[Atrix 4G General] Vul:
Alright, now we're getting somewhere.

co.ag

The phone itself says "unlocked" upon startup. I got the network unlock code direct from AT&T because at first the phone wouldn't even recognize my t-mo SIM. Phone is now network unlocked.

Ghost

gonna search now for fruitcake and see what thats all about. Do I need webtop?

Then going to get fastboot. Guess I dont need RSD Lite anymore?

Im doing this because I dont know what the previous owner has done and would like a clean slate. Kind of like changing the oil on a used car you buy, even if the PO says it was done.
[Atrix 4G General] Vul:
Ok so,

I found fastboot with recovery tool and the .exe files within the ZIP dont do anything.

The fruitcake ZIP file I downloaded according to your link, I'm not sure what to do with that. lol

Help?

**am I supposed to be saving these files to the phone itself? If so, where? Internal storage? SD card?
[Atrix 4G General] co.ag.2005:
that "unlocked" bit on start up means your bootloader is unlocked, doesn't have anything to do with the SIM card. All this means is that you can flash a ROM since the phone is "unlocked"

the fruitcake .zip goes on your internal sdcard. BUT, before you start doing anything, please go through the stickied threads in this section and read up on how to flash ROMs to your phone. This will include how to wipe your phone using the fastboot commands and how to flash the fruitcake .zip.

start here, read this post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154600

then follow guides to

"HOW TO INSTALL FRUITCAKES ON 2.3.4 (GREAT SBF/RSD ALTERNATIVE!!!)"

and

"ROMs & Kernels:

FYI:

Before installing any ROM or Kernel I suggest you do the following to help prevent error, boot-loops, etc. Also, it's a good idea to flash a new ROM or Kernel on a fully charged device:

1) Download which ever ROM or Kernel you plan on flashing and have the .zip on your device ready to flash.

2) Backup your apps (not system data), contacts, etc. Also consider making a CWM backup of your device, just in case.

3) Boot into CWM Recovery

4) Wipe Dalvik Cache (under advanced in CWM)

5) Wipe Cache Partition

6) Wipe data/factory reset

6a) If you're using ROM Manager/CWM you will need to reboot the device after step 5, and upon reboot enter fastboot mode and enter the command: "fastboot -w" or "moto-fastboot -w" if you prefer using moto-fastboot. Then type "fastboot reboot" and upon reboot make sure to enter Android Recovery again, so that you can flash the ROM/Kernel.

7) Install .zip from SD Card (choose the .zip you wish to install)

8) If you installing a radio, theme, kernel, etc. on top of a ROM, I would suggest redoing the whole wipe process again between flashes.

9) Reboot the Device

- If you get a boot loop, try entering Android recovery and re-wiping the chace and data, and perhaps try reflashing the ROM/Kernel. Or if you made a CWM backup, you can always restore that."
[Atrix 4G General] ghost_og:
Ok, sorry I wasn't that detailed in my other post and assumed you were on your phone (my bad). First things first, read the N00b guide.

1. Anytime you download CWM .zips, put them on the root of your phone's sdcard. You'll need them there in order access them from recovery. ( note: sdcard=internal sd card & sdcard-ext=external sd card for blur ROMS )

2. Fastboot commands are executed from the command line. Open a command prompt and navigate to the directory containing fastboot.exe in order to use it. The Noob guide should have links to all the fastboot commands you'll need.

3. With the Atrix's unlocked BL, holding Volume Down when turning the phone on will bring up a series of bootmodes to choose from. This is how you get into fastboot, recovery, RSD, etc. Navigate through the choices with Volume Down. Select one by pressing Volume Up. You should only ever really need Fastboot and Android Recovery.

4. CWM is used to flash .zips (ROMS, kernels, apps) while in recovery mode. Use romracer's to make things easier on yourself later.

Read through the N00b guide and this will all make perfect sense. :)
[Atrix 4G General] Vul:
I have no idea what Im doing. I think because this phone has been tampered with so much already, it's making it extra tough to work with.

I managed to install CM7. Its the only ZIP file that actually seemed to take. I still dont understand fastboot , in the sense that I don;t know when Im supposed to see a command prompt. Also, now, CM7 is asking me to upgrade to premium and I have to pay for it. There doesnt seem to be a free way of installing it so that I can sync all my info through my google account. Ugh. Im not cut out for this but Ive been screwing with this literally since 730 this morning.

**CM7 with google apps packet installed. So far, so good. Im happy with this considering its pretty close to stock gingerbread, kinda like my G2. Now, Im hopefully done messing around. Would be nice if they release a solution for the fingerprint scanner or if I can get my gmail to auto sync but at least I can stop obsessing for the time being. Great help guys, thanks so much!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thereddog:
I dropped my phone and broke the screen. While the top 5th of the screen worked initially, it is now completely broken. I have CM9 on it, rooted and unlocked bootloader.

What are the steps I need to take in order to back this thing up to flash the image to a new phone to pick up exactly where I left off?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] armdavid2:
Should be able to do a nAndroid back up. Than boot back up to android and copy the file to a comp. When you get the new phone rooted and what not put the back up where there normally stored. Dont forget to wipe data, /system and both caches. Not sure but it'd be safe to use the same recovery on your new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thereddog:
Yes, I'm asking how to do a nandroid backup without using the phones screen
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lordgodgeneral:
just use adb

adb backup -f filename.bak -all

should backup everything, then when you get the new phone, get the same rom installed and do a restore, no need for CWM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thereddog:
This command will create a full backup that I can then use CWM to flash to the new phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thereddog:
I think I may have disabled debugging.... Is there a way to enable it without the screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] armdavid2:
Was gonna say flash a non touch recovery. But I dunno any way to enable USB debugging if touch input doesn't work. Though if you can put it in fast boot mode flash the non touch cwm and go from there. Don't need USB debugging for that.

Rename recovery to recovery.img for easy sake

Put it in the folder with fast boot

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

[HTC One X] chanman23:
What data speeds does the one x get on T-Mobile.
[HTC One X] sapplegater:
The only speeds you'll be able to pick up on T-Mobile with the One X will be Edge. Since the One X doesn't have T-Mobiles 3G data bands. Unless you are some on the few lucky cities that has the newly updated T-Mobile towers with the same 3G bands as AT&T.
[HTC One X] chanman23:
Is there a way to check where the new updated bands are? Also is there any version of the one x at all that gets at least T-Mobile 3g?
[HTC One X] sapplegater:
As far as I've heard there are a few cities in California that have been upgraded there might be a thread on here about I know tmobile plans on having the upgrade completely finished by early 2013, and as for OneXs being compatible some are saying that the OneXL is compatible with T-Mobiles 700/1900 AWS band but it will take some configuring with the radio for it to work.
[HTC One X] denny1514:
is this whats causing my problem?

i have the one x international version and i can't get any data..i put the t-mobile APN configuration in and no cigar..would this be whats causing the issue?
[HTC One X] recondo1202:
Heads up if you are currently using the HTC One X on TMO but are considering switching to Straight Talk.

I just purchased their $45 plan plus paid the $15 for the ATT Micro SIM and am not able to get connected to Straight Talk. As others have mentioned, their CS does not know what they are doing, i.e.: The CS rep told me he needed to transfer me to the correct department and I asked what department that was and his comment was "our Department that handles ATT Micro SIM issues using a Non Straight Talk phone"

So if you are considering this don't cancel your TMO account immediately...

Good luck...oh and by the way, this phone is SWEEEEEEEEET!!!
[HTC One X] djdant:
So even the global one won't get 4g or H speeds on t-mobile? isnt it different from the Att version band wise? I am thinkin about getting this or One s
[HTC One X] sapplegater:
Nope the global one won't get tmobile speeds cause it only have the upload band for tmobiles 4G and not the download for it to work on tmobile it has to have the 1700/2100 AWS band. And the main difference band wise on the the international version and AT&T XL is that the international lacks a LTE card.

I have the international one x and I am on T-mobile I get like 5 mb which is very good for me :D

Does anybody have an unlocked One X and using it on T-Mobile? If so are you having problems with the SIM card saying No SIM Card Found? My One X will not read my SIM card. Weird thing is, it says I'm connected to T-Mobile in the status bar and gives me voice service but will not give me data service. I tried to manually put in the APN Settings and it won't save them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
What? The phone DOES NOT have the necessary radio bands to get 3G on T-Mobile in the US. It never will have them. If you want 3G on T-Mobile in the US you need a hotspot, or to be in a few areas in California/Colorado that have 1900mhz as the 3G frequency. Everywhere else you will ONLY get 2G.

---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:15 PM ----------

You need an older T-Mobile sim card. It is called a Non-GBA sim card. It comes with the older 21mbps hotspots as well as the Lumia 710. I had this same issue and the store I went to had no idea wtf I was talking about. I was buying a hotspot as well at the time so I tried the sim that came with it and it was one of the older ones, and it lets me access 2G.

The numbers on the front of the sim read 50.01.

The card that you cut the sim out from does NOT have people on it. Look around at a few stores, and if you have to ask for the hotspot that gets 21mbps and try if you can have them give you the sim from the box.
[HTC One X] romerovallin:
Thank you so much. I was thinking I was going to have to send this phone back and I really don't want to because I'm falling more and more in love with it the longer I have it. I just have to have data. So even now I should still be able to get that kind of SIM card?
[HTC One X] joshnichols189:
It will be hard to find because they are being phased out. The rep at the store I went to was a complete ass and wouldn't even call another store for me. I happened to be getting a hotspot and saw the sim card in it was what I needed to I use that in the phone. If you absolutely have to, ask for the sim card from the box of a 21mbps hotspot. They will think you are weird but just explain to them you have an international phone that won't work with the newer sims :)
