Does anyone have a firmware for Droid X stuck in boot loop

Sent from my waiting for I.C.S SPH D710 on XDA
[Droid X General] infazzdar:
If you're stuck in a boot loop try wiping data.

Power the phone off, press home and power, then press both volume buttons and select to wipe data.

If this doesn't work report back here.

[HTC Amaze 4G] acc3ssd:
I've got an Amaze 4G on Wind Mobile. My brother and I recently tried upgrading it to ICS. We followed numerous sets of instructions, flashing a recovery, a new version of hboot, s-offing the phone, changing the SuperCID and flashing an ICS ROM. We originally tried Android Revolution HD, but the phone always got stuck at the HTC logo and wouldn't boot up.

After a few hours of searching the forums and trying various things, we finally got the Energy ROM version 5/1 installed, after changing the SuperCID back to the Wind default (globa001 I think). We figured it was an issue with the Revolution ROM, but when I tried upgrading to Energy 5/6, I ran into the same issue.

I have searched the forums and found numerous people with the same problem, but I have not found a solution. I spent all night flashing ROMs and trying various things and I finally got it to go to the Energy boot animation, but it would just sit there and do nothing (I left it a good half hour). The next morning I tried installing Speed Rom with the SuperCID 11111111 and it worked. However, I had tried the same thing the night before, so I'm not sure what changed.

I'm not happy with Speed and would like to go back to Energy, but I'm worried it will brick my phone again.

I am currently using the TWRP recovery, but I used 4ext before with the same result. My firmware versions are as follows:

RUBY PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-1.93.0002

OpenADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0202

eMMC-boot

Any help would be very much appreciated.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
ok, well if your on wind mobile you want to use super cid.

but heres what i think the problem is, you didnt mention anything about wiping. try flashing the superwipe.zip before flashing roms. and always have a nandroid of a working rom. or else you may get stuck....

if you need anymore help, i will be watching this thread :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] acc3ssd:
Sorry, I forgot to mention that. I used superwipe and tried the various wipe options in the recovery, with the same result.

I'll definitely look into nandroid before I try installing another rom ;-)
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
I'd advise switching back to 4EXT recovery, makes flashing easier, trust me. Now update your phone to stock ICS, install 4EXT recovery then format all partitions except sd then install the ROM of your choice.

Before installing ICS you'll need to flash GB stock from WIND, then update to ICS via either OTA or directly on the phone via OTA. Then do what I said above, let us know what happens.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
yeah like dark said above me, use 4ext. it makes flashing easier.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Damn thanks limit, lol. +ziggy.
[HTC Amaze 4G] ziggy46:
haha they should make it like 12 max
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
The app has no limits, gonna switch to that in a sec, I already gave out like 30 thanks for today, therefore no limits would be awesome, just people might abuse it, smh.
[HTC Amaze 4G] acc3ssd:
Thanks for your help everyone. I'm a little confused about how to proceed though. I downloaded the stock Wind ruu.exe file from the forums, but I'm not sure what to do with it. I'm running Linux, so I can't execute the file. Is there any way to flash it without a Windows machine?

Also, do I need to relock my bootloader and go through the whole s-off procedure again, or can I simply downgrade to GB and upgrade back to ICS again without going through all those steps?
[HTC Amaze 4G] skugpezz:
You need windows to flash it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Once you're s-off once, you'll always be s-off unless you s-on again, to use the windows file your best option would be to use WINE. Which I figure you should be know how to use.
[HTC Amaze 4G] acc3ssd:
Thanks again for your help. I followed your instructions: Downgraded to GB, flashed the Wind ICS OTA, install 4ext recover, ran superwipe and formatted everything except the SD card, and then flashed Energy 6/6. It got past the HTC screen, but got stuck on the Energy boot animation.

Do you have any other suggestions?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
Caveats: Every CPU and GPU does not come from the same bin, fabricated on the same date and possibly not manufactured in the same facility. They may each display different physical properties and a wider range of stability than others. What works for me may not work for you.

That being said, I've been stress testing my device with different settings for the past couple weeks trying to find a sweet spot of stability, speed, battery life and heat output.

I'm going to share two setups: my current one that I've stress tested for less than 24hrs but has proved stable through all conditions encountered thus far and my tried and true setup I've used for over a week with no trouble.

Tried and true setup:

Governor - ondemand

Range - 100MHz through 1.6GHz

100MHz - 800mV

200MHz - 825mV

300MHz - 850mV

400MHz - 900mV

500MHz - 900mV

600MHz - 900mV

700MHz - 925mV

800MHz - 950mV

900MHz - 1000mV

1000MHz - 1025mV

1100MHz - 1100mV

1200MHz - 1125mV

1300MHz - 1150mV

1400MHz - 1175mV

1500MHz - 1250mV

1600MHz - 1350mV

Experimental but stable battery saver:

Governor - ondemand

Range - 100MHz through 1.6GHz

100MHz - 775mV

200MHz - 775mV

300MHz - 800mV

400MHz - 800mV

500MHz - 825mV

600MHz - 850mV

700MHz - 875mV

800MHz - 900mV

900MHz - 950mV

1000MHz - 1000mV

1100MHz - 1100mV

1200MHz - 1125mV

1300MHz - 1150mV

1400MHz - 1175mV

1500MHz - 1225mV

1600MHz - 1350mV

GPU setup:

Low power state - 100MHz @ 800mV

High performance state - 400MHz @ 1050mV

Notes:

Custom governors were not stable for me AT ALL! I've found ondemand to be the best one for me and my needs, personally.

100MHz @ 750mV was so, SO close to being stable for me but my phone would routinely reboot in the screen off state. I'm assuming the stress of apps updating in the background, notifications etc was just too much.

As much as I love WidgetLocker (and I really do!), I found it to consume valuable resources, have more pronounced wake up lag and generally contribute to instability.

I use Chainfire3D to run my games etc. at x4 MSAA. As previously stated by Chainfire, the Mali can run at x4 with almost no extra overhead. I imagine that if one doesn't use x4 MSAA, one *might* be able to get away with 400MHz @ the stock 1000mV setting. That being said, I consider an extra 50mV to run at 133MHz faster to be a bargain.

Many games can be run with x16 MSAA with minimal overhead but I've found that for some resource intensive ones, especially multiplayer, they'll slow down unless the GPU is fed at 1200mV but this in turn causes a lot of heat generated so I would advise to avoid turning on x16 MSAA for those that you do find slowing down.

I use and recommend Voltage Control (donate version for extra features!) for setting up clock range and voltage for both the CPU and GPU. It also allows one to set boot settings (at setup or init.d script) and create multiple profiles. I do not recommend init.d script for untested settings as it could cause you issues.

Edit: Not everyone's kernels may support GPU OC/UV or the CPU ranges listed here. I am not responsible if you bork your device.

Here's someone else's method for testing settings:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
I don't think UV saves battery. It is display that sucks most of the juice.

You save less than 2% with extreme UV and after a single reboot caused by instability - you lose even more battery.

There's an excellent thread in Nexus S forums - "battery drain benchmarks" (please search it).

I had similar UV settings and my phone never crashed during benchmarks or stress tests.

But it always crashed while installing 100+ apps with app backup restore, restoring backups with TB or MBR, gaming.

After removing UV, it never crashed.

I haven't tested UV with ICS... would see and report if it really saves battery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
I'm not sure if you've read everything through carefully or you would have seen that I've covered several of your points.

You also would have seen the method I use for stress testing and would have noted that I aim for four things: speed/performance, stability, power management AND thermal regulation.

While I agree that the display, barring a wonky or misbehaving app, will almost always be the #1 battery drainer - power management will certainly help to conserve battery life.

You also would have seen I mention profiles. There may not be a one size fits all setting for everyone but one can most certainly set up profiles for different scenarios.. Such as TiB backups/restores.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shaolin95:
Did you do some benchmarks at the highest speed several times to make sure you are getting extra performance? With this phone I noticed that while the phone wont crash.. .some times performance will drop when running at settings now fully correct.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
You covered a lot of points but UV is total waste of time.

You get nothing out of it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1478406

Could you please post your data, how much battery do you save after UV?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] baz77:
Disagree boy, cause with wakelock screen is off, there is significant battery drain, I went to 10 hours life on single charge, due to wakelock.

Normally with deepsleep about 2 days. That's a reduction of 87.5% with screen off. Cpu running @200mhz.

Do the same with undervolting will dramatically increase battery life in that situation. So overal it will be a fraction compared to using the device with screen on, but still significant.

Edit: guess I was wrong here
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M3TALLICA:
I actually did the test on Gingerbread.

I set min and max to 200 MHz, activated flight mode and had stock music player running for 3 hours - with undervolt and without undervolt.

To my surprise battery consumption was the same.

May be experts who know about our processor architecture can shed some light here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rlaw:
I understand where you're coming from, boy.

I don't have data at the moment though I wish I did. But to be honest, it'd be scrambled anyway since whenever I'm not working or mission critical when I need proven stability, I'm testing out all different sorts of settings leading to lots and LOTS of reboots and such!

That being said, anecdotally, I have seen improved battery life for myself but maybe it's a placebo and I could be wrong about it - I have been before in the past. I do feel though that under my normal usage scenarios, I am experiencing less battery drain. It's difficult to quantify though exactly what this is due to since I experiment with kernels, voltages and frequencies.

But if all I'm getting is a 2% boost, man - I'll take it! Like any modder, whether it's min/maxing in a game, working on a car or whatever else, every little bit of a parameter squeezed out is something.

I also feel that you're too caught up on a single aspect, the battery life thing, to the detriment of my overarching holistic goal - efficiency.

Originally I started undervolting and experimenting with frequencies because of thermal output. I had wanted to experiment with x16 MSAA settings, which led to my GPU needing 400MHz and 1200mV which led to lots of heating up which led to me experimenting with everything I could.

Efficiency is what I want. The best performance at the best speeds at the best battery life at the best thermal regulation I can manage.

Now I'm looking at energy efficiency. I'm seeing suggestions that 100MHz may not be as efficient as 200MHz on our Exynos because the tradeoff in frequency power usage isn't worth the longer time spent completing tasks. I'm also seeing that in some situations, a performance best governor targeting max freq may be efficient because less time is spent completing a task and a quicker return to sleep.

I'm just sharing what I'm doing and hopefully others can benefit.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] baz77:
Wow, thats illogical makes me wonder the math behind it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Kangal:
While I appreciate the effort thrown into this, I humbly acknowledge the conclusion is incorrect.

When you lower Voltage slightly, without affecting stability, you pretty much put a toll on the processor for extra "wear and tear" and reduce its lifespan. However, this comes at the reward of reduced current.

So, it should be saving you battery. Underclocking it (safely) is also going to save you battery. And the same thing with different governors, like interactivX compared to regular ondemand, by finishing off processes quicker and reducing the frequency and voltage quicker, and going into Deep Sleep quicker.

I don't have the means to run a Scientific Experiment to prove these claims, nor the time to conduct them. But the majority of "hackers" synonymously agree it saves a noticeable power. These include themers, kernel developers and the casual user. I don't think an educated MAJORITY can be incorrect to the scale of this test's claims.

Use a 1 click release...

Hello.

Your solution:

Put the phone into Download mode, and install the leak from the original 1 click odin release by DesignGears.

How to do it?

1st, search in the forums the location of the firmware, be sure to use the 1 click release, there are 3 leaks, for me the second was the best, probably for you the 3rd will be better, use one of those 2.

Be sure to have all drivers for your phone installed, and be sure Kies wont start when you connect the phone.

Power the phone off, by removing the battery.

Press, Vol up and Down at the same time, while keeping them pressed, connect the USB cable, then, run the 1 click binary.... wait some minutes while it says it is done and enjoy!!!!

Hope it helps, if any problems arise, let us know. I will check the thread later today and tomorrow.

I use the ps3 sixaxis controller with no issues. I use it for emulators. Available in the play store as "sixaxis controller".

Requires the use of your computer "first" to download the sixaxis program to "manually" input the Bluetooth ID into your ps3 sixaxis controller for pairing.

thanks for the input guys. has anyone tried the ps3 controller on the onlive app?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jm821:
I'm going to take a shot in the dark with your question and say that it should work because sixaxis registers itself as a keyboard input. So you should be able to remap the onscreen inputs for onlive to the corresponding buttons on the ps3 sixaxis.

I'm not familiar with onlives controller so let's say if the onlive app has 4 action buttons that are registered as "a,b,c,d", then you would just remap sixaxis' "square, X, circle, triangle" to "a,b,c,d".

Hope that makes sense.
