Ah, hmm a little, but nothing big don't worry. If you have access to another Android phone, then you need to make a goldcard. If you don't, then we'll have to use the Android 2.3 RUU, which is a bit more risky.

Don't have another Android phone:

Download this. While that's downloading, put your phone in a plastic bag and put it in your freezer, this will stop it overheating during the process and should eliminate the possibility of failure. When the download is finished (unless your internet is insanely fast, keep the phone in for at least 10 minutes), plug the phone in via USB and run the RUU.exe

Have another Android phone:

Download this instead. While that's downloading, put your phone in a plastic bag and put it in your freezer, this will stop it overheating during the process and should eliminate the possibility of failure. When the download is finished (unless your internet is insanely fast, keep the phone in for at least 10 minutes), plug the phone in via USB and run the RUU.exe
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ne_X_uS:
I saw a discussion,where one guy got same problem as me..He tried to download that file you upload there ,run the ruu.exe and I think he got stucked on white bootlogo..I got a lot of android phones home,but all of them are used ,so I dont know if I can use them for making a goldcard..

Another thing is,that you reccomended something like this:

turn it off, plug it in via usb, hold back and power

if you know where your fastboot.exe is then cd into the path in cmd.

if you don't then unzip my attachment and put it in your c:\ and type these commands

Code:

cd\

fastboot devices

if it gives back a serial then it is not bricked and you can flash a RUU

This wont help?

If not,I should try method with download that file,then run the ruu.exe?

Fastboot flash the file bravo_downgrade.img from alpharev.nl. Then execute the 2.3.3 ruu form htcdev.com
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ne_X_uS:
But I cant get to fastboot..I cant turn on my phone.. I cant do anything
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
This is not necessary

You are in fastboot. Fastboot Mode : RUU Mode

You can use any phone to make a goldcard for any other phone. I've told you what you need to know/ do, if you don't want to follow instructions to fix your phone then suit yourself, I'll stop wasting my time here.

Eh, comes with practise.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ne_X_uS:
But it doesnt matter when I want to run the RUU.exe and my phone is turned off??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
go create a goldcard using another phone then put ur sdcard back in ur phone then u can run the ruu. bortaks instructions r quite clear and so is his troubleshooting guide.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ne_X_uS:
WOHOOOO. I didnt use goldcard..I just downloaded that file,plug to pc,run the ruu.exe ,phone rebooted and now its all working and it didnt wipe data :)) I got backup,but doesnt matter:) Thx guys:)

But one thing is strange, it doesnt support Slovak language,only Czech..Its quite similar,but I want Slovak. What can I do?

[LG Nitro HD] dyurdz:
Hi all,

Is there a list of LG apks/odex files that we can delete without causing problems on LU6200. I really can't use most of them and it makes my drawer messy especially with korean captions which I can't read.

Thanks.
[LG Nitro HD] rani9990:
Yeah. Same for the AT&T P930.
[LG Nitro HD] dyurdz:
I managed to get rid of unnecessary apps by obtaining root. Then I enabled root explorer on ES file explorer. I then renamed those apks whose icons match those applications that i want to get rid of. At first I just try to rename them then if nothing bad happens after I reboot, I delete them. I use ES file explorer as it shows the icons of the apps so it is easy to associate the apks with the application. I still have 3 or 4 apps that I want to get rid of but I can't find the corresponding apks.
[LG Nitro HD] aaki_rocker:
i use titanium backup to remove all the bloat and unnecessary system apps !

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] robert_jacketti:
I have ported LeWa based on CM7 fixed 2.1 and ported from LG GT540 Optimus, which results in a stable working rom.

My first public release was version 0.4, which was published in the other (AOSP) LeWa thread. Now I have created my own thread to release version 0.6, which is also based on CM7 fixed 2.1 but contains multi-language!

Known errors:

- CM7 bugs

- Default lockscreen appears very tiny (use thememanager to select a different lockscreen if this bothers you)

Troubleshooting:

- In case of no 3g data, make sure the APN settings are correct

- GPS: make sure you turn on 'internal gps' in settings

- Use fasterfix to select the right pool

- Use setdns to set dns ;-)

- In case first boot doesn't continue after bootanimation, hold the power button until the device reboots again, now it will boot.

Installation:

- Use CWM recovery

- Wipe data/Factory reset

- Wipe Cache

- Wipe Dalvik

- Install using CWM recovery

- Install Gapps trough CWM

Disclaimer:

- Your warranty is now void

- I am not responsible in any way for whatever may or may not happen to your device or anything else in the world.

I'm liking it so far.

Smooth scrolling, still nice and fast. Camera, no change. Not played with the Walkman app yet. The MAIN gripe I have is that the capacitive menu button now does NOT give you the Settings option. You have to swipe down from the status bar, and the icon is there.

No Quick Settings either, no screen shot option from long pressing power key, no reboot option.

Overall, its a major step up for me. I had a Sensation running ICS for about 3 months before my Xperia S, and this feels like a different peace of software all together. I love HTC's SenseUI, but what Sony have done to this pisses all over it! :D
