Well, I managed to install the jb_hboot, but now there's no Recovery at all. And since I'm already on 2.01, the .exe is failing. I think I need to set Mainversion Low, but since I don't have a recovery...looks like I'll have to use the other file to flash it in the bootloader. I'll let you know how this goes.

Edit: Ok, I am now Locked, and S-On. However, it won't boot. When I go to turn it on, it boots to a black screen with a circle arrow and one in the middle pointing down over the picture of a phone. I managed to brick it, didn't I?

Edit 2: Ok, it's rebooting now...and we have Stock! I rebooted into the bootloader to verify LOCKED, S-ON, but there's still nothing when I try to go to recovery. IDC, that's good enough for me dammit. I'm through with it for the night!

(And thank the gods I remembered to uninstall my Blizzard Authenticator before I did all this crap...)
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Soft brick. That is the stock recovery... Did you do S-on with the JB hboot and/or custom ROM? That could cause that per the warnings in Scotty's thread.

Edit 2: haha good deal, congrats. Yes, that is what stock recovery looks like, no alarm needed. :)
[HTC Rezound] Danariel:
Thank you so much for all your help!

The temp on this ***** is 121 Degrees Fahrenheit right now. She's going BACK tomorrow! Absolutely unbelievable. You know, come to think about it, my Thunderbolt had overheating/rebooting issues until I rooted it and got a custom ROM. I really hope I get a good one, this time, I'd hate to go through all this **** again. :mad:
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
All phones are different, depends on how a person uses it. But the radio, charginig method, running apps, and likely hardware are all factors. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20138465 Worth skimming through. Some now have newer XE and unmarked hardware models which may have better temperature performance, time will tell. Could be worse... Just don't know if these hardware revisions address quality issues with heat, or are meant to reduce production cost. Probably both. Perhaps inconsistent from revision to revision; maybe a middle-aged model got cheaper but unexpectedly ran hotter. Need to be an HTC insider or get plenty of feedback to isolate the effect hardware revision has in the overall heat equation.

Edited for TL;DR-ness of anecdotal info. Good luck with the replacement. :)

Okay, so today I flashed a rom and when I rebooted my phone, it was stuck at the boot image. I'm pretty sure the problem has something to do with the boot.img (the kernel right?). So now I need to flash a working boot.img onto my phone, which can't turn on. PLEASE help me.:(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neccoguy21:
After doing any sort of cache wipe or ROM install or anything else having to do with that kind of cached memory, the pictures I've set to my contacts go from a hi res image to a lo res image. It will remember the newest picture I may have set, but it will always go back to a low res image. It kinda ticks me off that I have had to redo my important contact photos so many times. Is there any way to make sure the hi res photos I save to my contacts stay that way?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Because Google can't be bothered to fix their servers to keep the contact photos the original resolution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neccoguy21:
Oh, I get it. anyone know of a way to back up this info locally?

I believe the popular thing to do is use haxsync.
[Motorola Atrix 2] okachowwa:
Now before one annoying XDA member says "why didn't you search" blah blah. I did search and there is another A2 thread on this, but it addresses his other question on battery life and not the SD card one. Way too often (more of the time than not) I need to download something through the browser or take a picture or go in my gallery I get "download unsuccessful" or SD card not found and have to reboot. I have formated (will try that again though) and I am running Lithium v1.2.1. Any simple fix for this? I have tried other cards too btw. 8-gig, class 4
[Motorola Atrix 2] Apex:
Sounds like formatting is the issue here. When you formatted the sdcard, did you do so from within the phone itself, and not from in your computer? I'd try once more, just to be certain. Also, what else are you storing in the card, and are you copying the contents off before formatting and then pasting them back? If so, you may have a corrupted file or filed that are causing you grief...
[Motorola Atrix 2] mtnlion:
Try this. I used it to fix the SD issues I had on 2.3.5

[Motorola Atrix 2] Ravikirancg:
You don't have to reboot.. Go to settings, sd card and phone storage, unmount the SD card, then mount it back.. That fixes it..
[HTC Rezound] Burkejt1:
I would like to FINALLY S-OFF to make life easier and I am currently running Newt's one XXX Rls 1.0 on the ICS Firmware. MY question is if anyone can point me to a definitive guid on what I need to do to get back to the correct stock rom in order to do this, if anyone can point me in the correct direction for easy instructions that'd be great, my searches have put me in 20 different places and have given me a headache... thanks!!!
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25816870

That should do it for you as far as ensuring you flash a working stock ROM, good instructions. If you want the latest leak, since it is highly likely the OTA given the numbers HTC leaked today:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27244835

Note the attachment if you have root issues, read and check after flashing this one.

Pretty sure those unlimited.io instructions about being on a stock ROM are just to cover their butts for troubleshooting. Unless the custom ROM has issues with USB debugging or issues with root, should be fine. That is what the concern in the instructions is truly about, proper access for the program to work its magic. Just saying XXX RLS 1 should be good to go lol.
[HTC Rezound] famester:
I was wondering the same thing I'm on the gb firmware running rezrom sense 4. So are you saying I can s off just how my phone is or do i need to flash something else first. Should I flash ice firmware first or just s off?
[HTC Rezound] Burkejt1:
So here's my software info screens, which s off file should I download? I'm not sure which ice leak I am on I can't remember and I can't tell from here
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
Can't tell there since XXX is not based on Rezound firmware, it's ported... Have to check bootloader version and match up with firmware. (see below)

Make it safe and by the book, simply back up your data, and then flash to a stock rooted ICS ROM. That said:

http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear-public-beta-0-1/instructions/htc-rezound/

Well this is why this advice is simply off the cuff. In theory you'd just grab the corresponding bootloader regardless of the ROM used with. But the files are labeled by firmware version with no hboot label. I know a 2.25 hboot corresponds to the 3.14.605.5 file, 2.21 hboot to the ICS builds before that. 2.11 hboot to the latest GB firmware...

Check the hboot version in your bootloader and match it up with the proper package based on that info, if you wish to attempt on current ROM. If you have 2.21 I am unsure if that could be "Early ICS" or 3.13 leak, have to look at radio numbers then which I don't know off the top of my head...

Again, recommend you backup ROM and flash the 3.14.605.5 firmware rooted for the procedure just to ensure you get through the S-off properly. Get your JuopunutBear hboot on there, reflash recovery, and restore the ROM backup or try an upgrade...

Famester, you have GB firmware and so you only have one package to choose from. You have a better chance than Burkejt1 of just going ahead with S-off using GB package. Remember to do a ROM backup.

If you flash ICS firmware for the procedure too, remember to use the backup afterwards means it must be repatched for new firmware mounting points. Patch after restoring it but before booting the ROM.
[HTC Rezound] Burkejt1:
Okay, I'm working until 11pm EST tonight and I'll flash the stock rooted ROM for your first post, and then attempt this S-OFF business with a paperclip and some electrical tape.

Thanks for your help I'll let you know how it goes I have been meaning to do this for a while and I think I'll finally have the time to tonight.
[HTC Rezound] christohfur:
I was in the same situation before I s-off'd. I stayed on the GB firmware (and still am) but I flashed one of scotts stock roms. scottsroms.com Just to be safe. I also made sure I was on Amon Ra only for the s-off process. I typically prefer TWRP after my initial struggles with Clockwork.

Good luck y'all. It seems scarier than it is.

I'm using the stock launcher that came with the rom and everytime I open and close a folder, a voice comes out saying "the folder is open, the folder is closed" and I can't for the life of me find a setting to remove this. It's driving me nuts. Anyone know how?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Frank_C:
I did not have that specific problem, but I did had some other annoying problems with that ROM, starting when TDJ used his VENOM kernel. It was, after all, an alpha release. I noticed today that TDJ updated his ROM using the Tmo kernel this time. Perhaps updating with the newest ROM will correct your problem.

Aokp is fine until you try to do some stuff with sdcards, then they start not being detected. At least last I tried which was latest and this morning.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Troyis:
I've been running AOKP as DD for about a month and have never experienced any sdcard problems. I store all my music on my external card too. Always streaming via bluetooth and when I go for a run. My pictures also go to the external card.

I would say that it was either a bad download or bad flash or bad sdcard if you're experiencing any issues. :confused:

I'm waiting for the SGS3 also, but I have the Quad core HTC 1X right now too, I hardly do anything that stresses the phone enough to really use the 4 cores much,. I'd rather have the 2gigs of ram (which is why I'm getting the SGS3 also). Iin single or dual thread tests the S4 (a15 based) dual cpu out performed the a9 based tegra3 in alot of the tests. the exynos (a9 based) is also a a 32nm design compared to the 28nm of the S4, which makes it (S4) more efficient. True that's less than the differentiation between the S4 and the Tegra3, but still worth mentioning.

Link is to a post by kernel dev Faux123, speaking of S4 =/ Tegra3 in other words A15(ie S4 CPU) cores to A9(ie Exynos/Tegra3 CPU) cores. Skip the parts where he's talking about the coding and understand the parts in which he's speaking about the ARM instruction sets.

About to unlock my TMOUS One S but stupid me put in the PUK code instead of the SIM network unlock code and now I only have 1 last attempt. What happens if the final attempt fails?
[HTC One S] azzledazzle:
If you fail the last attempt you will block the handset and need a PUK code to unlock it, If you have the PUK code then go ahead, Nothing to worry about.
[HTC One S] frdd:
You have 10 attempts at unlocking with PUK after you fail 3 times on PIN. If you fail PUK 10 times get a new SIMcard.

The network unlock prompt wouldnt happen to have a cancel button would it? Sure it says PIN? Only seen that on CM9 and AOKP roms, figured it was a bug and always just pressed cancel when it showed up after successful PIN unlock.

Once you reach step IV, you can also update using PC Companion or SUS. Just make sure you don't erase your data (SUS will recommend to update without wiping data, but it will also let you erase everything. Follow the first path).

You can disable unwanted services and apps in ICS, no need to root just for that.. In the Settings menu, under apps: there's a 'disable' option available if a service or app is not un-installable.

Well, after some misinformed past rumors, I am finally leaving the Evo. I make this thread not because I feel like I'm 'important' or that anyone will care, but because of the community.

Made some good friends, and a few enemies, but comes with the territory.

But at this moment *new futurama*
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Best investment you can make on a galaxy device man, should be the first apps you purchase once you decide you're keeping the device. Yea Odin is a bit tricky at first, the things you'll probably have more questions with are the dreaded brick bug(idk if the sgs3 is plagued with that nuisance or not, I hope not) and how to avoid it, since its a permabrick if it hits you. The whole method of doing stuff on Samsung is just alien when coming from HTC. Took me a few weeks b4 I was back to flashing like a junkie again with out reading and rereading every step over and over prior to trying something new. I've had a few months with the sgs2 now so if you have questions about samsungs whole crazy zimage/recovery and how recovery is baked into the kernel and changes every time you change kernels I'm more than happy to answer em the best I can or point you in the direction of your answers atleast. :thumbup:

We are legion, for we are many.
[EVO 4G General] teh roxxorz:
Much appreciated man, and actually been doing some reason: the kernel and boot image on the G S III were separated so its actually a lot safer to root. In addition I've looked up the G S III root [international version] and actually QUITE painless, even using Odin. Since there were minimal hardware specs, aside from processor of course, but I believe the root will be the same or extremely similar. I originally was going to buy the original galaxy S, but I refused to get the epic with a hard keyboard, so I went with the Evo; though not like it was a bad choice.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
That's cool they seperated the kernel from the recovery now, on the ET4G there's no normal boot.img its called a zImage and has the kernel and recovery in the same partition so flashing a kernel changes your recovery. It can get quite confusing going from rom to rom and build to build and having to remember which recovery which backup was made with so you can Odin it to restore :eek: we still don't have official ICS or kernel source yet so flashing ICS roms requires first flashing a GB kernel with pure CWM to avoid a blue light of death brick. Talk about confusing, it took me a week of reading before I had the balls to try ICS but now I can mOdin el26+cwm kernel and flash ICS in my sleep. I've been running aokp since march never went back to gb except the few times I bootlooped and had to Odin to el29(latest GB ota) and start fresh. Once you get a feel for it and get any questions you have lingering out of the way its painless but the first few times you're sweating missles waiting to it to flash and boot and praying you didn't just brick, LOL. My first venture to ICS I chewed off all my nails while flashing it, I was so nervous I forgot something and was gonna fry my eMMC chip and be bricked.

ETA: what's even worse for me is I have 4 different manufacturers devices all different methods of flashing and its hard keeping it all straight, going from HTC, to Amazon to Motorola to Samsung and trying to remember which one you flash how is an exercise in frustration :banghead:
