[HTC One V] Lloir:
actually i know it doesn’t stick....as i was the one that asked Koush to make it fake flash as CWM would not flash via rom manager, it's done via a .zip for "testing" purposes it DOES NOT make any permanent changes...i have already installed CWM via rom manager, what it does is re-loads the .zip everytime you reboot into recovery VIA rom manager, if you reboot into recovery normally, you will get the older version of CWM that was on before
[HTC One V] 1ceb0x:
Assuming that I'm not having a CUSTOM recovery installed in the first place, only a rooted phone. I download the Rom Manager app and press Install CWM. Then if you do the combo buttons to reboot into recovery without using rom manager interface, what will happen? It will access the stock recovery?
[HTC One V] Lloir:
then you will go into stock recovery, as it hasn’t been overwritten

here from Koush's mouth

Thanks. I was assuming that rom manager works universally for every phone. I didn't knew that it has scripts for every phone that can support it.

I mean, on my old phone - HTC Hero, the recovery.img flashed through rom manager does stick :)...

Anyway, if he pressed "backup my rom" I'm pretty sure that's how the phone got bricked...
[HTC One V] Abhishekdhiman:
No .. i didnt press backup rom
[HTC One V] Lloir:
Ok charge overnight IF still nothing then you've bricked 100% can you run through the steps you did also what rom and hboot you were running if you know

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ELStiko:
My Wife's GS2 is rooted and she has been getting a Tmobile OTA recently (I assume this might be ICS). When she goes to install the update, it goes straight to CWM upon reboot. I did a quick glance at the first few pages in the boards for an answer but did not quite find what I was looking for or I may have overlooked it. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to get this update.

Would I need to unroot her phone? Or is there something I needed to do once it goes into CWM recovery? Any help would be nice.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
First, it's not ics it's the prequel for ics. Tmo is only releasing ics via Kies. Second, if she wants stock ics there's a couple ways to do it. First is dl the ota update then Kies ics. Second way is find the ics img and odin it to your phone (you'll have to find it...it's somewhere on the board). Or third, flash an ics modem, then flash a custom ics rom.

Or, your other option is keep the phone the way it is and turn off the update. Instructions are in this sticky: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1420065

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joanquro:
Hi, I've been searching the forums and google for a solution to this problem, but despite I've seen some possible solutions, I haven't been able to get it solved.

My current installed custom ROM is based on the ALF6 firmware (Xlite ROM V7). My phone is ALF5.

If I dial *#1234# I get the following:

AP: I9300XXALF6

CP: I9300XXLF5

CSC: Unknown <--- problem?

I have tried the following:

1) Flash the original stock rom (PDA, PHONE and CSC files separately). It works OK (shows ALE7 as CSC), but when I restore the nandroid backup of my custom ROM, the CSC gets lost again, so it looks like the nandroid backup contains also the CSC. I don't know where exactly is stored the CSC in the nandroid backup. I suppose it's stored in the system partion, but I'm not sure about this.

2) Flash the original stock rom CSC (only the CSC file) using Odin. It doesn't work. After booting, it shows again CSC:Unkdnown

There's a third solution, but it's very slow and I haven't tried yet, because I'm not sure if it will work. I use solution (1), and then I use CF-root to get root and recovery and then I install the custom ROM again and recover the app's using Titanium Backup, but I don't know if flashing the custom ROM will get rid again of the CSC.

Is there a way to restore my nandroid backup without restoring the CSC?

Any suggestion will be very much appreciated.

By the way, the phone works OK, it's just that it's annoying to see this unknown value in the CSC.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
Try that:

-Install the rom you want

-flash CSC only with odin

-start your phone

-dial *#272*YOURIMEI#

-select the good csc and apply

BE CAREFULL: it will erase all your apps and data so make a backup of them

If dial *#272*YOURIMEI# shows nothing, just do a factory reset from settings
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joanquro:
OK, I'll try, but I suppose I can skip the first step, can't I?. Because I already have a custom ROM installed (of course, with unknown CSC issue).

I'll flash the CSC again, start the phone, dial, select csc and reboot. Then I will recover the apps with TB.

OK?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
Yep!

If your rom is already install you can skip the first step
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joanquro:
It didn't work. After dialing, it does nothing. Then, as you suggest, I return to factory defaults, I reboot the phone, and I try again, and nothing :(

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amviewer:
I've had the same issue.

I just solved it by flashing the csc from odin.

Please advise how I need to customise the above files.

Also, will I be able to flash a custom ROM, then copy the above file and be alright?

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] simkid5614:
K. well, last night I was fiddling with my Vivid, STOCK ATT RUU ICS. However i have the Hboot unlocked and WCX recovery on it, I installed an unsigned mod to the rom, figured it would work, didn't back it up, Rom boots and phone functions, but I cannot get into settings. So whatever, is it easier to go ahead and do a new rom. Mind you i have S-ON and I can't find a screwdriver for my panel. Or can I go thru and reput the old ATT ICS RUU on the device, and how would i go about doing so.

Thanks for your help :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ronnie498:
Have you tried reflashing the rom you were using?

can you boot into recovery?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] simkid5614:
My original rom boots, and everything works. Its the original update from AT&T, There really isnt a reflash unless I relock my HBOOT and do an RUU
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ronnie498:
If you are trying to go back to stock, relock your boot loader and run the RUU.

my budget not problem as i have saved some money and i would be selling my two laptops. so i have approx $700. i dont want 32gb or 64 gb versions of tablet cause i already have 7, 64 Gb micro sd cards 3 of which r free :)

i want the best of the best performance. i m really really really considering asus transformer prime tf201 but thats an old tablet. i really love the brushed aluminum back and its sexy looks. and the dock, oh God that gives me an erection :D

i want u people to suggest me which tablet i should go for???

Yes, he means the TF700T Infinity -- I would not buy a Prime now. A small but more or less clear percentage of Prime units carries issues you'll tear out your hair for, and the price will be the same. You'll get a terrific HD screen in return, and not-so-much-impacted battery life compared to the TF201.

or try thisone

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1664049

the great thing here is: you can try different kernels and change them very easy with aroma-installer.

general you have to try different cpu-governors in the kernel-settings. what i think is, that semaphore-kernel was principial developped for long battery live. but to find the right settings is very important. and to find the right modem is also important. again: in roms with aroma-installer (tiramislim, slim ics) you can change them eysy after flashing. good luck!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kcarpenter:
I was under the impression the the Thunderbolt had LTE in AOSP.....maybe not, who knows.

Also, It should help that the GNex is LTE. Given those maybe proprietary blobs (I really don't know how open Nexus code is) if its not, why wouldn't it be in relatively quickly? Yeah it's a different radio, but the interface should be similar across most of Sprints LTE devices.

EDIT: Yes, it seems the Thunderbolt does have LTE working in CM7

Edit 2: VZW's LTE has a removable SIM card for LTE Activation, I assume ours is very similar, with possibly embedded or spoofed SIM. This probably makes it at least easier to get to work because the device doesn't have to handle the authentication the the network, the network handles it.
