You don't need to root to flash a custom rom, they are already rooted, all you need is a custom recovery.

Forget about the toolkit and do it manually, there are countless guides out there.

That makes no difference or sense.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree here. For all the ROMS i've flashed, pushing the power button will have no effect.

If in doubt, wipe everything. :D

In future I'd you have any problems go to mounts and storage and format data, cache and system and then reflash your rom.

But that's only needed if **** goes wrong and your rom won't boot.

Always wipe data and cache when installing a new rom. If you don't, things like this happen

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JoeM01:
My practice has been, upgrading from a previous version of a particular ROM, I wipe cache and dalvik. If changing ROM types completely, full wipe.

Any ideas on how to get HTC sync to recognize this phone? I hope somebody hasn't already posted about this--I searched to no avail.

I couldn't get it to work on my Wildfire S either. Tried enable USB debugging, run as admin, run in compatibility mode for differrent OS (I'm running Win 7 64 bit).

Hey guys, can you explain in short and SIMPLE terms the difference regarding the results of these 2 rooting methods in the DEV Sticky:

1. [ROOT] RegawMOD EVO 4G LTE Rooter | Updated 06.04.12 Automated root

method. Unlock with custom recovery and superuser.

2. How to Root HTC Evo 4G LTE! [Windows/Mac/Linux] - by Zedomax

does one give more access or is preferable over the other? or will both give you the same result with a different way achieving it?

Help would be appreciated!!! THANKS!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dude2k5:
I think one is just for Windows and as easy as clicking the file open, while the other is a little more complicated because you have to do a few quick commands, but it does work on all systems, Win/Mac/Linux

Could be wrong though.

edit: Woops, I think the RegawMOD will give you a custom recovery as well, while the other Zedomax just gives root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
The first method actually unlocks the device with HTC and adds a custom recovery(TWRP)so that you can flash ROMs and whatnot. The second option just roots and installs superuser and busybox.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NORCALkID:
I think Zedomax just roots your device and regawMod roots and unlocks your device with HTC dev. All depends what u want ... Root only or root and unlock

Regawmod does access the unlock features from HTC dev and will void your HTC company warranty but will allow you to install roms because it also installs a custom recovery
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
Edit: I don't want to spread misinformation, so I'll stay out of it. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
Regaws method gives you an unlocked bootloader a custom recovery superuser and busybox. Where as zedomaxes only gives you superuser and busybox and you have to go to htcdev.com to unlock your bootloader manually to install a custom recovery of your choice. In all honesty go with regaws method its super fast and super easy its litterally one click and it runs itself. I was one his testers and it was by far the most painless root and unlock ive ever done.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] djscissorhands:
What if you rooted with zedomax can you use regaws to unlock bootloader? If no, then how can I unlock bootloader?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] diestarbucks:
Yes, you can run Regaws right over Zedomaxs root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] alexwick:
Thanks for all these great answers.... Now.... To be also clear here.... Regaws WILL.. (technically and practically) void your warranty??? :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
So since both go through HTCDev and store your phone's serial number, it really doesn't matter if you use Zedomax first vs. using Regaw's method (which uses dummy HTCDev accounts). I only want to make sure because I'd prefer to do a TB backup before wiping my phone.

But I thought unlocking w/ HTCDev wiped data, so if they both do that, is there any way to back up my apps before I root?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NORCALkID:
It will void your HTC "factory" warranty but if u have sprint tep then you can use the unroot and relock methods posted in the threads and you should be able to return them to sprint for repairs and such
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
Yes yoou can
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
Root wit zedomaxes first install tb backup then run regaws
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Ends:
i have my rom on my external sd so that when I wipe data on my internal it wont erase it, but when I go to apply zip from sd card it give no option for external. Only when I go inside the internal I see the obvious folder for external sd, but theres no files. I dont want to transfer my rom to internal and then it disappear when I wipe system and data before I flash the rom.

oh yeah....v2.5.1.3 cmw
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Clark Joseph Kent:
you will need the zip file to install your rom on the internal sd, it will not install from the ext sd....when you do a wipe of data it will not erase your int sd, believe me I have a ton of files on my inter sd, with lots of zip files of roms that I have install.

so what you have to do if you have already wiped and you are sitting on the red CWM...is plug the usb cable to your phone from pc, after you are in cwm go to mounts usb storage...hit that, you should see it the inter sd pop in your windows explorer, copy your rom to install over to your phone, then do your wipes it will not take the files away from your inter sd...then install your rom...

All fast charge does is make the phone think it is charging from AC when it is plugged into USB. It has no effect when it is used when plugged into AC.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxgladi8orxxx:
Are you sure the password you entered is correct? Because this problem shouldn't occur if you're on the official firmware and kernel. This MAY happen if you're rooted and have a custom ROM installed which is in a BETA state. This is normally a problem related to the kernel itself. You should probably try restoring your phone if the WIFI doesn't work at all. Or maybe you can restart the phone again and there might be a fix.

Hi,

Have looked around the forum trying to find similar threads, however haven't found anything quite the same. I have been trying to update to Aurora from Oxygen and had got to the stage where I erased all phone and sd card data and then copied the "dload" folder containing "Update.app" inside it to the sd card. I then powered off the phone and then turned it back on whilst holding power,volume + and Volume - . The update starts and then around 10 seconds in a message comes up saying that the update has failed. I do not know what the problem is, any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.:)

Hi guys,

I was wondering, is there a decent way to revert to the 1.0.0 EOS Rom when coming from the 2.0.0 Stable or latest nightly?

Keeping in mind that I deleted my 1.0.0 backup a while ago.

Thanks!
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
First make a backup of your apps and your current ROM. Flash EOS 1.0 and gapps and wipe cache. Attempt to boot. If it loops or FCs, then wipe data and cache and reflash.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosterwp:
If you want to have all your apps and appdata backed up with it, I would do what was suggested above, but also use Titanium Backup to back up apps and appdata. However, restoring the apps can be tedious, especially if you have many. This is because you would have to hit install for each one of them. For that reason, i'd spend a couple bucks and actually get Titanium Backup Pro, because it is just so much more convenient, for it does everything automatically.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adelancker:

Should I wipe data as well before flashing 1.0.0?

Thanks
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosterwp:
I guess since you have a backup of all your apps, it would be safe and smart to wipe data.

Most recoveries don't wipe the internal storage (movies, music, pictures etc), however, i'd back the important things on your Xoom that are on your storage to a computer or to a sdcard, just in case something goes wrong.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adelancker:
Titanium is doing everything in its power to bug me :-).

It keeps on giving 0% backed up. Clearly, the app has turned against me lol

What now :-)

Edit: TB worked after a couple of tries...

I still get that error message when installing EOS 1.0.0 (after wiping everything) even though I redownloaded the Rom.

Is it because of the fact that I am in 4.0.4 whereas EOS 1.0.0 is in 4.0.3 and thus I am downgrading?

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosterwp:
I don't think it is because you are downgrading, if you did a data wipe, everything should of gone well. What error are you getting?

If you have everything that is important to you backed up from your xoom, I guess you could flash your xoom back to stock without locking the bootloader, and then flash the recovery of your choice. Finally, in that recovery, you can then flash EOS 1.0.0 and the gapps that go with it.

http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/ <- You can go there and download the stock images for the xoom. You would most likely have to sign up for a free account at MotoDev.

When the zip has been downloaded, extract the files. Assuming you have fastboot and adb set up correctly (in your command-line's path), you can follow the instructions on the MotoDev page for the xoom. THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING off of your xoom.

From there flash a fastboot-flashable recovery and then in that recovery, do a data wipe and flash that EOS rom! (and gapps too);)

Well, I personally use the latest nightly from teameos. I am able to browse the web on chrome for the greater part of a day on good brightness and still have enough battery to last a bit more.

Have you tried wiping your batterystats? Do that at full charge. Also, if you use your tablet at night, you could try an app called rootdim. Its on the play store and it lets root user lower the brightness on a device to a level below what android lets you set. For me that's a good battery save.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosterwp:
Well, when I was reading on the internet, wiping the battery stats helped didn't necessarily help extend the life of the battery. Though online, some people said that when you switch between roms, the battery reading may be thrown off over time. So your tablet may be telling you that you have 20% battery left when you could actually have 25% battery left. As for the reason it should be done at full charge, it was actually part of a guide to calibrate the battery on android, which you could try. I am myself not clear on how the battery works. Your trust is appreciated, but dont take my word for it though... :eek:

And, whoa, your English is not bad!
