Reasons I want to get rid of ICS...

The web browser in ICS is broken (cant handle text inputting correctly on a dual framed web page).

Whenever I left an app to go back to the desktop, it would sit for over 40 seconds sometimes, trying to reboot the desktop icons, flashing up the HTC logo inbetween.

It doesn't always play the incoming SMS notification sound, meaning I'm missing texts when they arrive.

The overall responsiveness is terrible compared to stock gingerbread and HTC sense that shipped with the phone.

Anyway, looking at rooting my phone, now I've got this far. I've read that I need a su.zip. Found a file, Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip. I've copied that to the SD card, popped it back into the phone. Booted into 4EXT recovery and chose "install from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard" and selected the said zip file.

It reports E:Error in /sdcard/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip (status 0)

Installation aborted

What have I done wrong?

Also:

Once I've got S-OFF.... I know I need an earlier HBOOT and the stock Gingerbread sense rom. Where do I go to get them?
[HTC Sensation] crisisinthecity:
Try a factory reset dude. It will probably fix all of those issues.
[HTC Sensation] moojuiceuk:
Tried a factory reset, still dont like ICS. Gingerbread was flawless in comparison.

Downloading Android Revolution HD 6.6.4 XE in the mean time, just incase feels any better.

Would still like GB back though :(
[HTC Sensation] LPChris47:
That's absurd.
[HTC Sensation] moojuiceuk:
Oh dear, things have gone from bad to worse. :(

Installed the Android Revolution HD 6.6.4 XE rom and did the boot.img patch to make Wifi work.

Decided to get S-OFF using the Juopunutbear method.

Got to the wire tap stage, and then the utility complained the adb server was out of date and couldnt start some daemon.

Now trying controlbear.exe again and it says this...

======== ControlBear 0.4 beta for JuopunutBear S-OFF ==========

Rebooting from bootloader

Waiting...

...Waiting

Detecting...Starting up......

Connecting to device...

ADB server didn't ACK

* failed to start daemon *

error:

Connect device and install drivers

Press ENTER to exit.....

On the phone it will only bootloop, or show the Juopunutbear splash screen.

Help! :(
[HTC Sensation] ThaPirato:
LOOOOOL i love ICS but here's a awesome toolkit by hasoon2000 it's very n00b friendly & has easy S-OFF etc... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1497404 good luck going back to Ol gb & It's crappy battery life.:eek:
[HTC Sensation] moojuiceuk:
I would have used that *if* it supported HBOOT 1.27 to S-OFF, but apparently the only way to S-OFF with 1.27 is to use the Juopunutbear method. Hence why I'm stuck now! :(
[HTC Sensation] ThaPirato:
Did you kill all ADB services in Task Manager?I've also read people have had to uninstall HTC Sync for the program to work,luckily I got S-OFF a while ago using that great tool kit.Try killing ADB & if you have to uninstall HTC Sync,hope that works for you :(
[HTC Sensation] moojuiceuk:
Tried killing adb.exe from the windows task manager before trying ControlBear.exe again. Same error as before :(

**EDIT**

Killed off the HTC tool from the system toolbar, then killed all instances of adb.exe.

I now have S-OFF, and the phone boots to a desktop :)

Now all I need to do is work out how to go back to GB...
[HTC Sensation] ThaPirato:
Congrats on getting S-OFF ;-) If i were you I'd look in the Sensation-Development section of this great forum,I'm sure you'll find everything you need or just Google what you need and a link to XDA should popup.
[HTC Sensation] moojuiceuk:
OK.... well I've been reading the forums all day (yes I kid you not!)

Just want to get an idea if this is the correct way to go back to GB....

Im on HBOOT 1.27 with S-OFF and as I understand it, gingerbread wont boot using that version of HBOOT.

On the User friendly flash thread here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459767&page=1

I have downloaded HBOOT 1.17 which is for a CID: HTC__001 (which is what my phone was before I changed it to 11111111) using "fastboot oem writecid 11111111".

I have also downloaded RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223042_signed.exe

and extracted the rom.zip file from my windows Temp dir.

Now the only instructions I can see are for upgrading to the latest ICS, not downgrading.

"I really want to use the latest ICS! How do I go about doing this?

I get this PM'd to me a lot. The best way I have seen to do it is as shown (Thanks to PaulGiz)

1. Do some reading as this is a bit different and harder than a normal ROM flash.

2. Best way is to place Firmware PG58IMG.zip, ROM and Superwipe script on the root of your SD Card.

3. Shut down phone and remove SD card.

4. Boot phone to Bootloader (Power+Vol down).

5. Move selection to Recovery, but don't select yet.

6. Insert SD, then select Recovery.

7. Flash Superwipe (ARHD Superwipe will reboot when done, others may not. Make sure it is a superwipe for the sensation!) & then Flash ROM.

8. Power down, then boot to Bootloader. Select Fastboot. Say yes to upgrade.

9. Watch the flash. It will flash 3 or 4 things, then reboot to bootloader. Don't panic when screen goes dark. Bootloader will come back and it will finish flashing.

10. Now select reboot.

11. Wait (up to 10 minutes) for ROM to boot up.

12. Set up your phone and enjoy ICS!!!

If I was to follow this and place the following files PG58IMG.zip (HBOOT1.17), Rom.zip and Android_Revolution_HD_Super_Wipe_Sensation.zip, onto the sdcard and do the above, will it get me back to gingerbread, or am I likely to have a paperweight bricked phone?

Also, in doing this, I won't inadvertently reactivate S-On again I hope!... getting it switched off was a right work up.
[HTC Sensation] moojuiceuk:
Well I've worked it out myself :)

Ran superwipe from 4EXT

Copied HBOOT 1.17 (PG58IMG.zip) to the sdcard and used the fastboot to load that. HBOOT changed to 1.17 and kept S-OFF

Copied the rom.zip to the sdcard, but called it PG58IMG.zip and used the fastboot screen to load that.

Phone now has stock gingerbread on it! :) YES!

Thanks for everyone's help & input.

Hi

I have a question regarding downgrading my HTC sensation Z710e from Stock ICS to Stock GB.

With ICS update i am facing issues like low signal strength, even factory reset did not help in improving situation.

Phone currently running with SKT stock rom 3.32.911.13.

HBOOT 1.27 Unlocked via HTC Dev

S-ON

No root

I have the old GB stock from from SKT RUU_Pyramid_SKT_KR_1.24.911.1_Radio_10.39.9007.00P_10.11.9007.09_M2_release_190960_signed.exe, when i try to flash it normally it gives an error that ROM not suitable.

My Question:

Is it possible to flash this GB rom with out S-OFF ?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
for downgrading using a ruu.exe it is necessary to be S-OFF

be S-OFF first and then downgrade
[HTC Sensation] sohail25feilder:
Hi Chi!

I am also facing the same kind of problem but to an additional step and that is I have flashed custom rom onto my mobile. Now to S-Off I need to be on the stock rom. I have searched around but SKT ICS RUU is not available any where. Any idea for getting the ruu skt kr 3.32.911.13?

Thanks in advance. You can PM me as I am not a regular visitor of this section.

Hi everyone.

I keep my FIT locked using pattern lock.

But my stupid small brother played with it and the phone got crappy.:(

So i switched it off and restarted it.

Now it asks for a Google account (strangely) but since my data connection is manual and not automatic hence i cannot even log into my Google account.

The phone is unrooted so no CWM or any recovery.

Can anyone suggest me what to do?

Do i have to flash it or update it (whatever) using Samsung kies?

Totally confused here..
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Feras.Rehman:
Press d power button and on d data network! Or flash another rom :) try doing a data wipe too ;)

Thanks for the reply i guess i have to flash it up only..

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Czechnolog:
Guys,

does anybody know if it is possible to change settings of Skydrive Auto Upload feature.

(It is a great feature, but can be better.)

I mean:

- image size change (currently, pictures are very small - about 100 kB)

- upload pictures only on WIFI (it uploads data on E or 3G as well, so it can cause a big battery drain if you take many pictures)

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinchy87:
i asked Microsoft about that, they say the resizing must be because of limiting the data connection of each user. they said to me think of 3mb each picture and you have 100 pictures, and if you look them in you picture hub, you internet connection would not be able to manage it to download all of them in the memory bla bla bla. so that if you slide your pictures it would LAG thats what i think! therefore their small :( but its a shame that we have no function to define the size. something like: orginal size, 800x480, or 1600x960 the 3 sizes would be enough for me. and for every regular user i think!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Czechnolog:
It is pity that it does not work.

It need not to be 3 MB, but 400-600 kB is enough.

Another thing is that you cannot run it ONLY on Wifi. :-(
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weepatc:
Uploading from the SkyDrive app. allows you to upload pictures at full resolution according to WPCentral. Try that. Good luck.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinchy87:
i've tried but, you should try to upload 100 pictures... that's insane believe me. sync to PC and then upload is not the solution why do we have then this integrated feature... its only half of an feature :(
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Czechnolog:
Exactly! I am totally pissed off that Microsoft does NOT include multiple upload to Skydrive.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laptopdragon:
and with cameras that are 5megapixels and up, whats the point..

moreso, my HTC radar, doesn't have an SD card, so i HAVE to upload my pix...

sure, i take a pic, i want it to be a full screen shot, 5M if not more, but then i get the stupid small pix uploaded...what a rip off.

basically, we have a good camera on our phone(s), and no reason to have it b/c of upload.

and to continue, i am sooo dissapointed with the windows phone.

i took the windows challange, got a free phone b/c my G1 was slower, and now HATE the windows phone...the G1 is so much more versatile....

[Android General] drraptor:
leaked spec point to htc one s small sibling.

According to the leaked specs, the Ville C will have an "ultra slim" body (though it's not clear if it will be as thin as the One S and if it has a unibody design or not), an 8MP camera with 1080p recording, 16GB of built-in storage and even the same 1650mAh battery.

It will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, of course, but the HTC Sense version is listed as 4.5. Currently, the One series use Sense 4.0, so what can this new version bring?

The situation with the screen is a bit unclear - it's a 4.3" unit with qHD resolution, though the spec sheet calls it both "LCD" and "AMOLED". If the Ville C is going to be a cheaper One S, it might make sense to go for the LCD, but we'll have to wait to find out.

The processor has certainly been downgraded though - it's a Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 MSM8260 with the dual-core CPU clocked at 1.5GHz ala - the one that powers the HTC Sensation XE.

There's no mention of Beats Audio, though since the entry-level Desire C has it, we would be really surprised if the Ville C doesn’t come with the sound-enhancing technology.

That's all the available info on the HTC Ville C for the moment, though we hope it will follow the example of the Desire C and leak a few more times to satisfy our curiosity. http://m.gsmarena.com/specs_for_htc_ville_c_leak_a_cheaper_one_s_with_sense_45-news-4254.php

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikkelm40:
Hey XDA,

After i updated my HTC Desire s's rom to BlindICE 7.0 from 6.0 (No factory reset) the phone kept coming up with the boot animation after i unlock my SD card. The boot animation would disappear though, but almost as if it had done a hot restart. I would then have to unlock the SD card again, and the same thing would happened. This happened a couple of times, and i disconnected it from my computer (I had the phone connected from earlier where i send the rom) and suddenly, the phone froze. Now i cant get in any contact with the phone. ADB earlier said the device was offline, but after i disconnected the phone from the PC, and connected it again, the device wont show up at all

So my question is, are there any way to restart the phone without pulling the battery? As i said earlier, ADB is not working. I could let all the power run out, but i would really love if there was a faster way, and not sure if it would be just as bad as if i pulled the battery.

I know i should post this in the Desire s's forums, but the Q&A section of the forum is not very active. If this is against any forum rules, you may delete this ;)

EDIT: Fixed =)
[HTC Rezound] godsmacked4653:
Not sure how many of you have seen this on XDA today, but Google has started limiting you to four device deathorizations per year for Google Music. Normally, not such a big deal, but when you flash a ROM twice a week and have to authorize your phone that often, you will be unable to activate Google music on new ROMs until next year.

Here's the main thread in the Gnex forums: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26145534

And here's a petition they started about halfway through the thread: http://www.change.org/petitions/google-remove-google-play-music-deauthorization-limit

I'll probably post this over in the Incredible forums, too. I'd hate to have to switch to Amazon's cloud service over something this stupid. :(
[HTC Rezound] alphabets:
signed the petition and this is the dumbest thing i have seen in a while. i hope they change their mind on this.

as of now i only have 3 authorized devices. my home HP PC, my nook color and my Rezound. i have only had to de-authorize once so far and it was when i still had my DX. so it looks as though it doesn't count as an activation when you upgrade your current roms, just maybe when you completely swith to another rom. I am on CR 4.5 and have updated it probably 3-4 times already.
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
Holy cow. I was just about to post the same thing. When I look at my authorized device list I see like 9 of the same entry for my Rezound and one for my Galaxy Tab 10.1. I don't understand why they would care how many devices you deauthorize. I'm sure there is a reason for it, but I don't get it.
[HTC Rezound] godsmacked4653:
I have six devices authorized right now; two laptops, my Incredible, and three Rezounds. Can't deauthorize any of them.

There's a few posts in that thread that suggest restoring your accounts through TB to avoid adding another authorization. I've never had good results from restoring account data, but if some of you hit that limit, it might be worth a shot.

I do this with my amazon account to keep from increasing the number of devices. Works fine for amazon mp3 and amazon app store.

Though I don't think amazon has a limit on how many deauthorizations.

Stopped using google music when at first you couldn't use but 1 google acct since wife and I have different. Would have had to upload all music twice. Amazon didn't have this problem.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I always had the issue with too many devices so now I just restore my app+data and seems to work fine. I haven't had any issues with needing to deauthorize accounts for quite awhile now because I've been restoring data.

Run( "\Storage Card\Android\haret.exe")

When I execute runAndroid it just runs it and stays with Android each time the HD2 is switched on until I do a power down to restart in Windows Mobile.

You need to reflash with the original RUU, you can find some RUUs from here: http://www.filefactory.com/f/7cc7b2fbdd03c031/

THIS PROCESS NEEDS A RELOCKED PHONE. (fastboot oem lock).

edit: the RUU for your version isnt published already. You need to wait for the RUU, Why can you use an older version? You can't because the DOWNGRADE isn't posible with S-ON.

If you know what file you modified, maybe extract it from a similar ROM and adb push it?
[HTC One X] graemeg:
if youve edited the build.prop without backing it up first then quite simply youre asking for trouble....

ALWAYS Nandroid and back up anything before altering it.

If you can access download mode then your safe, just connect up usb for fastboot and run a downloaded RUU, if youre not sure what rom to get then id try HTC EUROPE ones they first, these are probably the most common ones.
