starting downgrade...

i hope that helps. got stuck about 1 1/2 hours ago. i may have to mention that i have a desire hd and not a inspire 4g. but according a german site that should not be an issue.
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Was your phone as charge only by default?? your sdcard was not accessible. Try rebooting the phone, and make sure that charge only is selected by default....
[Desire HD General] Hotte175:
charge only was set by default checked it twice before starting. but i will try it again. but i dont have to install the htc drivers right?

just did it once again and it worked. now the device asks me if i want to update. does it mean that he wants to install the downgraded version?
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Yes. It will be flashed twice. After that just re run the hack kit and you will be done
[Desire HD General] dannytux:
isn't better to install the HTC drivers? so that you can connect thru adb too if needed...

at first i can't even boot into recovery and i used the adb command on my DHD :)
[Desire HD General] michoscopic:
Oddly my google apps can't seem to function after flashing JellyTime on DHD. I won't repost here but if anyone can have a look here it would be great. Many thanks.
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Better? if you don´t install the drivers anything will work. You should read better before attempting to do anything to the phone.
[Desire HD General] GuyInTheCorner:
Mhm.

[Desire HD General] Hotte175:
thank you very much! everything went fine. just having some issues with the rom but i better post them in the development forum.
[Desire HD General] gixer131:
assuming you still need to use abuntu live cd ..... then whole thread becomes usless.... abuntu doesnt have the live cd setup available & it seems all upgrades dont include it. Any help to run the new version or method would be greatly appreciated.
[Desire HD General] blackbuffalo:
First you must full wipe with Sabsa Prime V8 then reboot your device, seting up first

Last flash V8.5 over V8.o without wipe

Reboot done
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
Er, if you mean that Ubuntu no longer makes live CDs, they definitely still do. Here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop. Download .iso and burn.
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Pardon? what do you mean that UBUNTU liveCD has not setup available? That is not correct and if it were, you could always burn an older version. Please do not misguide or troll the thread. :good:
[Desire HD General] tendersong:
one question here, is there any way to root DHD without downgrade it?
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
umm...I think that you might achive temp root using zergrush or tacoroot but not sure thou. If not, you have the chance to unlock the bootloader, but frankly that is not the best choice. :good:
[Desire HD General] ronaldo-9:
hi guys .

Which way are all rooted Android phones?
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Pardon? didn´t quite catch that.
[Desire HD General] kami2k:
when i run the hack-ace.cmd it say enter pass key? what is it and where it is located?
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
Read the manual that comes with the hack kit carefully.
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Really? the same time it takes you to post this will take you read the effen manual....
[Desire HD General] festisen:
easy going. read the manual.
[Desire HD General] kaiserxion:

That thanks button ain't gonna push itself!

Not so easy to find

Hi there,

I suggest that someone makes this thread sticky. I have never before rooted or used custom roms in an android phone, and yesterday I rooted mine and flashed a custom rom. I had VERY much trouble finding good information on how to do it, since there are a huge number of instructions on xda forums.

Finally, when I found this thread, I was able to do what I wanted and with ease. Thanks for great instructions :good:
[Desire HD General] masChmagic:
The original post is outdated =(

The utility to gain s-off has been retired
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
That is why there is a sticky about rooting without the Hack Kit...

i dont have many apps on my phone and need the space on sdcard for photos and videos....

so i made an init.d script to move some big folders (games) from sdcard to /data/ and /system/ partition because there is much space left.

[edit]

to let you know. i faced a small problem and found a solution ;)

after i moved some big folders to phone memory i got a "low phone memory" at 200mb ?! witch i find is MORE than enogh !

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] unreal3000:
so i can use this script ( or make my own, which would be very similar) on the xperia u too rite?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Yep, you should be able to.

@OP: what you need is to write a generic script that moves directories based on a plain text list on /sdcard.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ilgreco112:
there is a sd card in xperia P ? oO
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
There is no sdcard, but /sdcard is a separate partition.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] unreal3000:
the main idea stays the same. the xperia u has a partition which acts as an internal sd. so lets say i want to move my music folder on the sdcard to the /data partition. will this work? -

busybox mkdir -p /sdcard/music
busybox mkdir -p /data/music
mount -o bind /data/music /sdcard/music

tks fr the help!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] inteks:
should work, but you should use it for i. e. gamedata that you can always redownload. because if you reflash your phone this data will be lost.

btw. next version of setxperia is able to execute /sdcard/userinit.sh then you can easily edit this file on pc when phone is docked...

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] unreal3000:
so your saying once i have my music folder on the /data partition, i cant edit it through the sdcard partition? (like copy things to the music folder on the sd from my comp, but it would actual get stored on the /data partition?)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Yeah, that's exactly it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] inteks:
no you can't access them through PC. on PC these folders are empty. as i said this is only useful for i. e. big game folder to save some space...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scandiun:
I've got a SGS2 with stock ICS and kernel, of course the yellow triangle never appeared. I've been told that is an unofficial kernel that makes it appear, but, I flashed Siyah SGS2 v3.3.2 from ClockWorkMod and doesn't appeared either.

Just for curiosity and also to prevent it if possible, what will trigger the yellow triangle?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pittoreski:
IIRC it means that your device is rooted.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4038153:
Flashing a non-official kernel from download mode. Prevent/remove by not doing this (flash kernels via other means, such as from CWM recovery, Mobile Odin etc) or using a USB jig (depends upon having specific bootloaders)/TriangleAway (depends upon running ICS).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scandiun:
That's the reason it didn't appeared to me, because I flashed the Siyah kernel from ClockWorkMod Recovery.
[HTC Sensation] chrisund123:
Can anyone recommend a good brand of screen protector? I went with case mate, as I had one on my desire HD and was very pleased with it - it fitted great and even after a year it still had plenty of life in it.

However the one that turned up for my sensation is rubbish, it only covers the LCD area - no protection over the capacitive buttons, and I keep catching the top when swiping the notification bar, so it's lifting up already.

Ideally I'm after one that will cover the whole screen, and isn't cheap and nasty.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I have the OEM HTC ones I got from Expansys. You get two of them. I don't remember how much they cost though. I think you can get them through htcpedia.com as well.

http://www.expansys.com/htc-sensation-screen-protector-sp-p540-2-pieces-retail-pack-218032/
[HTC Sensation] chrisund123:
Didn't realise HTC did ones, will definitely check them out! Thanks for the heads up.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
They fit pretty exact too FYI. Any mm off and you gotta redo the stinkin thing lol. It took me a good 20 mins to place it on the way I want it. I mean if you are off, you will get some bubbles in the corners, but they fit the entire screen. There's a write up in this section back when the Senny first came out and everyone was clamoring in which screen protector to get. Some like others, I am happy with the OEM ones. I still have it on to this day. I have one hairline scratch from keys that can be seen in certain angles, but other than that, the protector is great IMO.

GL.
[HTC Sensation] chrisund123:
Cool, just bought a set from eBay. Can't be any worse than this one I'm usin now lol.
[HTC Sensation] meckanoid:
i personally like the the invisibleSHIELD by ZAGG theyre pretty good in quality and last a long time now with any screen rotector as you know with time it will get really scratched with use but you should try these maybe youll like them they usually range anywhere from.. 0.99 to 3.99 fir a pack just look around ebay amazon... etc etc
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I like Zagg, but I tried it back for my ol Nexus One and the outer skin/protector was nice, but to me the screen protector was too hazy for me and also a little tacky for my taste. Did they change the material for the protector?
[HTC Sensation] meckanoid:
well to tell you the truth i think theyre material might have improved a tad bit in quality but its like everything it does wear out eventually with time but i can understand the hazy part it does tend to be a little bit a problem for me
[HTC Sensation] Duckie92:
Best thing is still using no protector. Tried several and always get the feeling my touch is less responsive.
[HTC Sensation] klausel:
i bought the iprotect crytalclear,

the distance from the corner to the screen protector is quite big (picture added) sometimes your finger gets stock, if you try to pull down the notification bar or using swipepad

i probally would buy another one
[HTC Sensation] chrisund123:
Well the HTC screen protectors (2 pack) arrived today, and again I'm slightly disappointed. On the plus side they are lovely and clear, and cover the whole of the screen. It's also very thin, so doesn't feel like its hampering the touch input at all (although my previous case mate screen protectors were thicker I never felt they effected the input either).

The biggest downside was that because they are so thin, they're near impossible to fit. After carefully peeling off the backing, you just cant hold the thing. It Took me forever to apply the first one, and subsequently it had one bit of dust trapped under it in the middle of the screen. Not much, but I'm a perfectionist! So one down, one to go... I peeled it off and tried again, this time I was rewarded with two specs of dust... But they were over the capacitive buttons so I'm willing to live with that.

The other problem I had was that the screen protectors were glued onto the packaging and if I'd just pulled them off they would have creased and been ruined. In the end I cut them off gently by sliding a sharp knife underneath them.

So, in conclusion I have a semi decent fitting screen protector on but I won't be buying these again when it reaches the end of its life.
[HTC Sensation] gbarayah:
I would highly recommend the Skinomi Techskin. I use them on all of my devices. Same concept as Zagg but they are a little thinner and the screen still retains the 'glass' feel. For me the Zagg is a bit too much and my finger drags on the screen at times with it.

The fit on the Sensation is perfect and installation isn't too difficult.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Have you tried the tape trick for the dust? It's always best to put screen protectors on somewhere dust free like the bathroom. Always wash your hands before as well.

And I myself took a good 20 mins putting on mine because of the exact fit of them. I had to take off and reapply like 7 times. But I got the hang of it as of now. And if you are greeted with specks of dust, get a piece of scotch tape. Lift one end of the screen protector with another piece of scotch tape that is closest to your speck(s) and then use the scotch tape in your other hand to stick the particles from the screen protector or screen itself. It takes some finesse but it can be done, I have confidence in you! :victory: lol

Here's a more recent pic of the HTC screen protector. I do have minor bubbling on the corners because I just redid the Screen protector to align correctly because the case I have on which I just got kept lifting it. Reason being, the screen protector was off to the right a bit lol. I can live with the minor bubbling on the corners and you can't see the bubbles when looking straight at it either. See the second pic :)
