I am going to India and I want to use my phone there, but the roaming fees are pretty ridiculous.

Does anyone know how to go about flashing the phone over to one of the local carries(Reliance) and then flashing back to Sprint when I return?

Thanks!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MeNaCe2s0cieTy:
Hi guys,

Let me start off by just saying I've been rooting and roming for 3 years with my old G1 and this has never happened to me before. Last night as most crack flashers do I was changing roms. I was going from DroidTheory's Axiom to Miui. I was carrying out this rom flash as any other. I nandroid backed up my current rom just incase anything out of the ordinary were to happen and I wiped before actually flashing the rom as well. This time though I was a bit suspicious when actually wiping. I got the normal date-wipe and cache-wipe messages after telling the recovery to wipe my phone but it also said it wiped my sd-ext which of course is my external sd card. I didn't think of it as anything then of course so I just carried on and flashed the rom and restarted. After restarting I was pretty much just stuck on the Moto dual core splash screen for about 20 minutes so I tried rebooting into recovery. To my dismay it never did boot into recovery but kept going back to the red moto logo. I decided to check my sdcard by plugging it into my laptop and again to my alarm there was nothing on the sdcard. This is the first time after trying over a hundred roms on my 6 different android devices owned that something like this has happened. Never before has my recovery actually wiped my sd card when I just chose the factory reset option. What's even worse is that now I can't get RSD lite working since my battery is low. This was never a problem on my Motorola Milestone when I used RSD lite since I could physically remove the battery and put it in a external battery charger. So now I turn to you my trusty XDA community. What should/can I do. My battery is too low to carry out RSD and I can't boot into recovery at all or access any of my nandroid backups because the recovery actually wiped my sd card. Somebody please help. I do not want to lose my baby like this. I've been a crack flasher for years and something like this has never happened to me. I have a Rogers XT910 if that helps at all. Please help a fellow XDA crack flasher find a solution :(

I received a text and I went to view it and my phone froze, I locked and unlocked the screen and it unfroze, but when I tried to view the message, the thread just says loading and will not load any messages. This is the same for any thread of messages I try, but when looking at the messages at a glance I can see the preview of the most recent message, yet it wont load. I tried restarting the phone a few times, but the problem is still there. I can see the preview of the most recent message, but still cant view the thread. However, I can send messages and view the entire thread by downloading a third party app (Whatsapp in this case). Anybody able to shed any light on why this might be/possible solution?

I really hope to get out of this without restoring the phone...

Thanks!

go into settings/applications then find the messaging app and try clearing data and cache.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 06types:
Forgot to mention that I also tried this, did nothing.

But thanks for the input!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 06types:
I've been searching and have only found one other thread about this problem. No answer on there either. I also have the problem where it doesn't notify me of new texts and the camera app crashing and not working till I restart the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G_D_84:
having same issue

I really wish there was more feedback on this issue because I just started having this problem today and this is the only thread I've found that addresses this topic. It started doing it out of nowhere. There was nothing that I could think of that I had done before this occurred that could have caused it. I'm tryin to avoid a factory reset. I have TiBu backups of everything but the fact is that this shouldn't be happening IMO. What should I do?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
If you've tried clearing the app cache and data, I don't think there is much else you can do. Just bite the bullet and factory reset.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] G_D_84:
sms issues

First off, thanks for your quick response. I did clear the app cache but the clear data was grayed out. I figured I would have to do a factory reset but I wanted to see if anybody had a resolution to this issue first before I did. Thanks again. Guess I'm bitin the bullet :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bighuta:
Ok for real, I know I'm not crazy. I've tested my SDcard on my tablet by checking md5 sums of rom zips from both internal storage and external sdcard and they match perfectly, everytime.

BUT when I transfer rom zips from my internal storage of the EVOLTE to the same external sdcard, I GET MISMATCHED MD5 SUMS EVERYTIME. Not only that, When I download rom zips to my external, I get the same problem.

Is this a common problem? (afaik it's not)

Is this a problem with my Evo or my sdcard? I don't think it's the latter since i tested it on my tablet with no issues.

Any help would be great! thanks in advance!

EDIT: I should add that when transferring from External to Internal, I do not get the MD5 mismatch
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Spyderekz:
You might be right. I moved some of my pictures and they became corrupted when moved from internal to external

sent from my EVO LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] megabiteg:
You guys should try formatting the card from the phone, that sometimes fixes the situation. Also, what kind of SD Card you have?

Warning: Please perform a backup of the card before doing so, you will loose all info on the card when formatting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bighuta:
The worst part is downloading rom zips straight to microsd. The MD5's NEVER match. this was why i was having so much trouble with getting Charmeleon rom to boot!..

Can anyone else replicate this issue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bighuta:
Ive reformatted both in my PC (full format and quick format) as well as on my phone, with two different SD cards. And corruption occurs on both cards.

I'm pretty sure it's not my sd cards. Like i said, I've transferred large rom zips from my internal storage of my Transformer tab to the two sdcards and in both instances, there was no corruption (md5's check). Apply the same tests to both cards on my LTE, however, resulted in mismatched md5's.

EDIT: I've also tried this test on Stock as well as custom roms. with stock kernel
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bighuta:
Bump.

Has anyone else had trouble with file corruption? If not then I'll have to get a replacement. Which I would hate to do... Not for me per se, for sprint.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bighuta:
so finally bit the bullet and got a replacement. Rechecked files transferred and it turns out that it WAS my phone that was corrupting files that were transferred to the sd card.

So i guess i just had a faulty one =]

Don't worry about that the GS2 has a counter who is incremented when u flash a non official software it's a trick that the constructor used to help the Samsung's technicians to know if you can use the guarantee or not but the GS1 isn't equipped of this system, then it doesn't matter.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] masual:
It happened to me too, but i managed to solve it just removing the battery.

A few weeks after that the phone died, not sure if it was related. Not charging, not booting, nothing. I sent it to Samsung and they replaced the whole main board. But they sent the phone back with a problem: there is like a pressure mark just in the middle of the screen, it doesn't matter where I press on the screen, the mark is in the same spot. I sent it back to Samsung after that, but they returned the phone saying that they didn't find any problem... what should I do? Send it back again?

The problem is hard to see if you don't know where the mark is, it's not a big deal but is annoying, and I'm afraid the screen could get permanently damaged.

Dude posting same thing in each thread isnt a solution. Just wait till someone gets u a solution. It will take same time, whether u post in any no. of threads.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] The-Droidster:
First, Remove the battery, wait for some time and insert it again then start the phone. or

try starting the phone by removing the sim and sd card. or

Try wipe the dalvik-cache and cache partition. or

unmount and then mount system and data or

Also try flashing the stock Indian ROM through ODIN.

:pWipe data / factory reset...last option:p

[Blade General] Di0g0:
Hi people

I have a sapo a5 aka ZTE Blade

It is an zte blade with a 5 megapixel camera.

But I have a very BIG problem, sometimes when I open images using the gallery, my phone crashes to the green android (reboot), in other words, isn't the gallery process crashing, is the phone itself.

With the original ROM (sapo 2.2 froyo) i don't have any problems but i don't like the original, it is too slow, etc.. I have the crash problem with all cm7 versions and other roms. I have friends with the same phone and they don't have any problem with the gallery. It's a strange problem because this only occurs with photos, I don't get any crash playing games, etc..

I don't get the crash with the cm7.0, but in this version the phone sensor doesn't work on the gallery if i don't install a properly driver.

So I think the problem is on the sensor drivers.

Thank You!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koker93:
So I am new here and want to root my EVO. Ive spent a few hours now reading and have hit a roadblock (I think.) I went to the READ FIRST thread and found out that since my hboot version is 2.18 I need to unlock the bootloader via HTC. that is done. the next step appears to be following a link to another site to get my phone to S-off. However the first readme section of that post says I dont need s-off just to get sprints bloatware off of my phone, which is a big reason I'm here in the first place. I went back to the origional thread here and the next step appears to be a nandroid backup - but my phone wont run it. I get a red triangle, which google claims is because the phone isnt s-off...

3 questions

1) do i need a backup of the stock setup before I go forward, and if so how do I get it to work?

2) do I need s-off. All I want is to flash a ROM without sprints software. At least for now.

3) If i skip the stock backup, what happens when I need to take the phone back to sprint?

I'm sure this has been asked a gazillion times, and I'm sorry. Just seem to be in a loop of need backup first, but need to flash a rom to be able to backup...

The phone is already unlocked, and the HTC unlock wipes it, so im not concerned about data - its already gone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CRIME INC.:
Sounds like u need to flash a recovery first. I recommend smelkusmod amonra. Just look for it in the dev section. If u want to flash it being unlocked s on, u will need to download flash image GUI from the play store.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
You don't need S-OFF, but what you do need is a custom recovery. That's how you flash Superuser and get root user access.

That thread you speak of gives you a couple of methods for flashing a custom recovery. Try those, or search around for a few guides that give you the specifics.

If you need any additional help, feel free to ask.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koker93:
Thats from the read first thread. Thats where I'm stuck. According to what I've read I am rooted and should now make a backup. But the backup wont run. So if I skip the stock backup (or run it later and I'm just not understanding) can I still get the phone back to where it is now? I read a couple years ago about rooting that you needed a backup of YOUR phone to revert to stock and take in the phone, not just a backup of any phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
Are you trying to back up from recovery?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koker93:
Yes, but without flashing anything yet.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
Then I don't understand why you wouldn't be able to make a nandroid. You have an SD card in the device, correct? What error message are you getting?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koker93:
Yes, there is an SD card in. It shows a phone with a green sync and then after a few seconds that changes to a phone with a red triangle and an explanation point. If i hit power, vol up, and vol down at the same time twice it goes into recovery but says it could not create some e drive folder and backup is not listed as an option. I can get the exact directory its upset about, but ill obviously have to reboot a few times, I'm not at home right now.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
That is the stock recovery. Again, as was said earlier, you need to flash a custom recovery in order to perform the next step in your process.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koker93:
So i went and downloaded Amand ra's custom recovery. No dice. bootloader says

Main version is older

Update Failed

Do you want to reboot device?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shortydoggg:
Try reopening the command prompt from the folder where you unlocked the bootloader from on your computer. Download and place the attachment inside that folder. Connect your phone to your computer. Boot into your bootloader, then click on FASTBOOT, not RECOVERY. The bootloader should now read FASTBOOT USB in red. Then type the command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

then reboot the phone and see if you can get into RECOVERY.
