I apologize because I'm using google translator. I really believed in the tutorial and tips from the post. Now returned to congratulate the developers for the information. I do not know why the dead pixels, but I know it worked as I instructed. I was surprised to see the photos posted of the "Jkmoran" ... identical pictures of my defy. Thanks to "xdaforums.com" and its users has been fixed. THANK YOU ALL! :)
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brajesh.sharma87:
could u post a before and after pic?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dallasdf:
unfortunately I had this idea before, but the LCD was cleaned thoroughly cleaned. I was so happy. I did exactly as instructed here in the forum ... I have not changed any procedure.

as "sealme" (Junior Member) said:

I got same problem few months ago. This is how to fix it

1. Take off your baterai, micro sd and sim card

2. Put your "defy" in to freezer for 24 hours or more

3. Take out your freezer from defy

4. Make sure your first defy dry

5. After defy you sure your dry, put back your baterai, micro sd and sim card.

6. Finish, no more dead pixel

Damn it, this is the reason you can't use the words "rugged" and "smartphone" in the same sentence with a straight face.

I remember my old Sony Ericsson C702. It had a lower IPS norm than my Defy+ but I could - and did - hammer in nails with it.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kherzad:
did you try it?

because actually as long as there is no batery SIM or SD card on the cellphone, you can put it on the freezer without any kind of worries (actaully I put it on the freezer once the pone was actually ON and nothng happened, only you could see the moisture on the screen but the phone worked) just make sure the phone is DRY before you put everything back in. If you want you can try the old Rice technique to make sure it´s compleatly dry.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brajesh.sharma87:
I tried the trick but it didnt help. The spots are too big. U can see the pic in my previois post.

But nevertheless I appreciate the suggestion and happy that I failed after trying. :-)

To others, if any one of u are going to try this mehod, be informed that the liquid damage indicator will turn red due to moisture and u might loose ur warranty.

Its fixed. It seems that it was stuck and just needed that extra kick with another ROM. Not really sure what the hell happened but its working fine now.

Please delete post.

Yesterday I plugged the HOS into my laptop and it started to act a little weird. It wouldn't show the SDcard but it allowed me to open it. I copied a new ROM to it and installed it. Since I did this, the phone will not work. Once it boots, it just freezes and reboots when I try and do anything. The nand allows me to boot and scroll through the home screens, but if I try and do anything else it freezes and reboots. I can't install any other ROM that's not sense base like AOKP or MIUI as they just boot loop. I can get to recovery and the boot loader no problem. :confused:

Update: I can boot a stock nand and get into the app drawer. But, once I click on an app or pull down the notification bar it freezes.

Update 2: Was able to get the cyan alpha to install after a good 5 minutes of bootloops and it runs perfect. WTF is going on here?? haha

Can anyone give me any suggestions to try? Thanks for any help that you can provide me.
[Motorola Droid 4] NiveusLuna:
Can you take a screenshot on the Droid 4 stock ROM without an app?
[Motorola Droid 4] pimpsalot69:
yea it works for mee
[Motorola Droid 4] NiveusLuna:
Maybe I should rephrase that. If you can, how do you do it without installing an app or a custom rom?
[HTC Rezound] audiophizile:
Randomly yesterday my rotate stopped working. It will not rotate in any app. I've turned it on and off many times and nothing. When I go to calibrate it does its thing for a second then says aborted. Anybody had this issue? It's very frustrating not being able to use my phone in landscape. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] audiophizile:
Ok, verizon said to do a factory data reset (which I'm pretty sure won't fix it but ya never know). Is it safe to do this from the settings menu running cleanrom 1.7.5?
[HTC Rezound] aznjosh:
yeah its safe. you'll just have to set up your whole phone again from the beginning. if all that doesnt work you can try clearing dalvik cache in recovery. the last hope you have if none of that works is factory wiping your phone in recovery and reflashing the rom
[HTC Rezound] audiophizile:
I just ended up flashing the stock ruu cuz they're sending me a replacement. Before I s-on, how do I know if I have a stock signed hboot?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Just got a replacement DInc2 for a charging port loose warranty replacement (again).

The phone has software verison 6.01.605.05 710RD

and baseband version 20.32W.30.0813U_1.09.01.0312.

zergRush fails on this latest software version...

FOR ANYONE THAT GETS THIS PHONE WITH THE ABOVE MENTIONED SOFTWARE BUILD:

When attempting the downgrade method in order to S-OFF, a lot of people (myself included) have run into boot loop issues. On initial boot up, everything works normal, but as soon as you power cycle the phone, your phone will go into an endless reboot cycle where the phone boots up all the way to the lock screen, but then after being on the lock screen for ~2-3 seconds, the phone will reboot and will continue to do so. The only way I was able to break the reboot cycle was to do a factory reset in recovery, but again, the phone will stay on during that initial boot up, but will resume the reboot cycle after any sort of power cycling.

In all my efforts of returning to stock after any sort of tinkering (including flashing the full 5.xx RUU and restoring the stock hboot 0.98), I was UNABLE to get my phone functioning normally. Even full stock, I had the reboot issue mentioned above. I had to get another replacement from Verizon and haven't attempted the downgrade yet.

Work arounds to date:

1. Don't reboot EVER after you initially boot up after a data wipe!

2. If you need to reboot, it seems like enabling airplane mode prior to power cycling prevents the reboot cycle. Even if WiFi is on with a power cycle, there isn't any issues, it's only when the cell radio is on during power cycle that triggers this.

3. Run an AOSP ROM like CM7/CM9/AOKP. This issue seems to be isolated to only Sense ROMS (this could be do to all the Sense ROMS available today being based on the 5.xx RUU and when flashing the downgrade RUU, something isn't getting downgraded properly..?)

If anyone else has any other work arounds, let me know and I'll add it to this list.

I'll say it again, the only way I was able to break the reboot cycle was to do a factory reset in recovery.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Archon810:
Interesting. I've actually had the RUU for this build for a while, but since it only adds emergency alerts as far as I could tell, I didn't release it. Not sure it's worth doing now, since it's such a minor revision.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Unfortunately it was enough of a revision that zergRush is failing to gain temp root access!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mastamoon:
I just finished getting S-Off and Root on my new CLNR today. :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Did you start with HTC Bootloader Unlock?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] negroblanco:
Please do tell how you achieved this. :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] mastamoon:
XTC Clip. Bought one almost a year ago and never got to use it. Till today! :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Camaro305:
Does anyone have an RUU of this?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] randomdeanna:
If you could release it asap, that would rock. In attempting to root, I've fried my radio and need to reflash the latest rev. The current releases that are out won't flash.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aeroevan:
Taco root should still work for the unlock part. Otherwise, htcdev unlock flash something that is rooted, relock and revolutionary.io as usual.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Cool I'll try TacoRoot to see if I can get temp root on this build to do the downgrade. For anyone looking for the link: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13713-tacoroot-htc-universal-root-exploit-12-30-2011/
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] randomdeanna:
I'm (shockingly, ha) having an issue with tacoroot putting me in endless boot cycling when I get to the root step. See my post in this thread on rootzwiki.

I can't seem to find clear how-tos on htcdev/flashing. When I've tried to flash a stock upgrade (see this thread), I get a failure because the RUUs posted are older than this new one. I suspect this will be true of something rooted, no? If not, if I'm wrong there, can I just make an image of my current happily rooted dinc2 (I haven't sent it back yet) on 2.3.3 and flash that? (and if so, links to how-tos for that would be great. Good lord, I'm demanding!)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
You can make a nandroid backup in recovery on your old phone and restore it on your new phone. The only catch is if you use HTC Boot loader unlock and load a custom recovery that way, the restore will not restore the kernel. You will have to find the boot.img for the ROM you are running and use fast boot to install it (flashboot flash boot boot.img)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Just so everyone is aware, if you do get a replacement DInc2 from Verizon, it will come with newer than OTA software, and when attempting the downgrade process using TacoRoot, you run into bootloop issues that I think are not correctable without the RUU of the shipped software.

Myself and one other person both ran into the same bootloop issue after the downgrade, which persisted even when restoring everything to stock using the 5.10.605.9 RUU. See more about this issue here I have heard of at least one person having no issues after the downgrade though, so I don't know how many had issues and how many had no issues...

I ended up getting another replacement from Verizon, and until an RUU exists, probably won't attempt to root, just FYI for anyone considering getting a replacement from Verizon.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aaronc222:
This is horrible news. I just got an Incredible 2 yesterday (gf's had charger problem, I bought her a Rezound and took her warranty swap to replace my Droid X).

I'm sure persistence will pay off though.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cheesiepoof:
Bad news indeed. I just got a replacement as well with the same softare version. Sounds like the XTC clip is the only way to root it at this stage. Ugh.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aeroevan:
Tacoroot seems to be working for some people. Just follow the updated instructions that a few people who have done the new downgrade process have posted.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Yeah I wonder what the difference is...its driving me crazy. PalmerCurling had zero issues with the downgrade. Even more alarming though, at least in my and random's case, that even going back to full stock 5.xx RUU, the reboot issue is still there, so right now for us there is no clear path back to bone full functioning stock...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] randomdeanna:
Quick q: You didn't mess around with the HTCdev unlock tool like I did, right?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Nope, had a full stock phone when attempting TacoRoot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] randomdeanna:
I'm considering using the temp root provided by tacoroot to just get my Titanium backup restored, rather than going the whole shebang, while we wait for a stable root to come out. But not being sure what caused the bootloop scenario (tacoroot itself, or the modifications that came in later steps), I'm not sure. I doubt I can get Verizon to send me another phone if I screw up, haha.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Lol yeah I'm in the same boat as you, not sure if I want to risk it. If we at least had a 6.xx RUU that restored full functionality without issues, I'd be more open to experimenting.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Got my new Inc2, haven't had the guts to try the downgrade on this one yet in case in starts bootlooping again. Maybe I will just do the HTC Bootloader Unlock and live with that for flashing custom ROMs and having root...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dets34:
well this is awesome news. Just dumped my x2 (after 5 replacements i had a few words with Verizon) for the inc2 looking forward to all the different roms... and now this. ={ Hopefully we can figure something out soon. Or maybe ill get lucky and fall through the cracks like a few have done.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aaronc222:
The only bootloops I've run into were easily curable (run 'tacoroot --undo' when adb catches the phone, battery pull, and it's good).

As for the HTCDev Unlocker, maybe you'll have better luck than me but I tried it multiple times without success.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
I didn't have any problems with the HTC bootloader unlocker tool at all. But then when I put Bonestock on it (really all I care about is the Sense 3.0 patch), it wouldn't work with the new radio... "Phone" just kept force closing. I don't want to put the .1111 radio on it without a release of the .312 to go back to just in case, so just chilling for now. It was at least nice to get superuser access to take out all the junk.

EDIT: For what's it's worth, I tried the tacoroot first, and in the process was getting boot loops at the red eye logo. Did a factory restore from the HTC recovery and then did the HTCdev unlock without issue.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dets34:
successfully unlocked my BL first try with new OTA. Dont see the point in going the s-off route if i just want a rom that i will use everyday and dont switch between 2 or 3 roms weekly/montly like some do.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
its not a big deal to flash multiple roms w/ dev unlock

just the extra step of pulling the boot.img from the zip and pushing it with fastboot

just no radios/splashscreens w/ unlock...but many dont care about that
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
Nitsuj, are you saying you cannot flash radios after doing the HTCdev unlock? I was getting ready to try to flash .1111 to get the new Inc2 to work with Andy's Bonestock (and your Sense 3.0 patch).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
afaik you cannot
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jesand83:
Could that be why after I flashed your Sense 2.1/3.0 ROMs as well as the SkyRaider ROM I have lost the ability to use WiFi?

I get nothing but a WiFi error whenever I try to turn it on. I guess I can live with it until I can get an upgrade but not having WiFi pretty much sucks!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] CondemnedSoul:
WiFi should work fine on those roms regardless of how you rooted. I would try doing a full wipe of everything and flashing again.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jesand83:
Thanks for the reply, I'm about 17 factory resets/cache wipes into this process, is there anything else I should have cleared?

Like I say, I've tried Nit's GB Roms, the SkyRaider GB Rom, as well as anybones nearly stock Rom, all give me the exact same grief
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Problem:

here is your issue (assuming you used htc devunlock)

w/o s-off you cannot flash the boot.img via cwr/4ext/whatever as the security on the phone doesnt permit flashing to that partition

when flashing the rom in recovery with s-on, it is not installing the kernel included with the rom...but *is* flashing /system/lib/module/bcm"whatever" (depending on wlan0 or eth0 set up its bcm4329.ko or bcmdhd.ko)

you now are still using (most likely) the original kernel that came with your phone and an incompatible wifi module, thus the error you are seeing in settings...logcat would produce something like "cannot start supplicant" or "wifi service inaccessible"

bcm modules are produced w/ the zimage at time of compile and are unique to that exact kernel

anyway, enough rambling...

Solution:

(you will need to have the android sdk/adb installed)

first reboot into hboot/bootloader

in terminal emulator

reboot bootloader

in adb

adb reboot bootloader

in a rom w/ reboot options

select toggle for bootloader

from powered off state

volume down + power

use 7zip (or equiv) to open the rom zip of the rom you want to use and extract the boot.img (i dont think ihtfp uses boot.img setup to flash kernel, i dont remember...but most do)

navigate to wherever fastboot is in your sdk (if its not universal)

for example in windows (im assuming you are using that)

it could be something like

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

make sure the boot.img (and fastboot) are in that folder

and make sure in hboot it says "fastboot usb", if you manually booted into it you might have to select it

fastboot flash boot boot.img

the terminal will confirm if it properly pushed the kernel

then on your phone select reboot and you should be fine (assuming you have either flashed the rom that the boot.img is from or are going to before rebooting)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aaronc222:
Hmmm. I figured it might have been something with the new RUU blocking it. I'll have to try from Ubuntu this time.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jesand83:
Thanks a million, I wish I knew much more about what i was doing than I do. But I would just like to say how much I appreciate you and the other Devs that guide the rest of us through all of this. You all are truly one of the reasons I have enjoyed my android devices so much.

I'll try flashing it as you say this evening and then report on what happens.

Edit:followed your instructions and I now have WiFi!!!! Too awesome! Thanks again, that was pretty frustrating.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
nitsuj, would you assume this would work for me as well, trying to use Andy Bonestock on a HTCDev unlocked new Inc2 and getting Phone force-closes?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
It's possible, though sounds like a.different issue
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] aaronc222:
So after being without s-off/root for a while I was finally able to achieve it. I'm not allowed to post outside links yet but the newest is on rootzwiki->HTC->Incredible 2/S->(HOW-TO) ROOT DINC2 ON 6.01.605.05 FIRMWARE

This worked successfully to get me downgraded to allow rev's s-off and root. I'm now on MIUI w/CWM.

It was a little flaky with a couple of random restarts on the stock 605.3 software but it cleared right up after flashing MIUI.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
I also acheived s-off with the thread aaronc222 mentions. I also was getting restarts a few seconds after the lockscreen would appear, but flashing a new ROM fixed it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
That was my issue exactly. Reboots on sense roms, has anyone that downgraded from 6.xx and didn't go to an AOSP ROM been issue free?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
I'm fully functional with Andy Bonestock.

After Revolutionary, I got the reboots at the lockscreen. Flashed Bonestock and was good. Flashed .1111 radio and got the reboots at the lockscreen again, so wiped data and put on Bonestock again and now am fully functional with Bonestock and radio .1111.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
That's good news. I thought I was in the clear too, but when I power cycled, the reboots at the lock screen always resumed no matter what I tried unfortunately.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
Nope, you're right... I had to reboot today (well, didn't HAVE to but I did anyway) and got stuck on the reboots. It's odd because after installing Bonestock, I had to restart a couple of times to apply superuser and a couple other things and everything was fine, so don't know why it wasn't giving me reboot problems then. I'm reflashing it now and I guess I'll just hope and pray I never have to restart until we get it straightened out...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
Yup, or flash an AOSP rom...

Another work around I discovered is to put your phone is Airplane Mode prior to rebooting. For whatever reason, the reboot only occurs when the phone boots up with the cell radio enabled. Its as if with the new 6.xx software, there is some conflict with RIL and Sense even after factory resets. I'm nit nearly smart enough to understand the problem.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tcwota:
That's a workaround I can live with for now. But if the phone were to restart by itself for some reason without being in airplane mode, do we have a way to get past the reboot problem?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] fsiddique:
I got Verizon to replace my phone again and haven't attempted to downgrade on this new one (and am holding off until a 6.xx RUU is available). But from the few days I did have to play with the phone, once you get stuck in this loop of reboots, the only way to break the cycle is to do a factory reset in recovery, but this obviously loses all data...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] moddernate:
I have exactly the same issues after downgrading and rooting. I just realized that my pri version is 194_002 when according to other threads the correct price is 192_002 maybe this is what's not downgrading? Idk just a thought maybe it will be helpful to someone more knowledgeable than me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Interesting, that might be it. Can you try flashing the 192 PRI this thread? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695516
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] anubis2k3:
I've seen this issue over at the rezound forums. It is a network issue over there, may be what's going on here. Try booting the phone without the back cover, and if it boots, go into wireless settings > data connections and change the network make sure its on cdma only. If its already cdma only, try switching it then switch it back on and replace the cover and see if that works.
