[HTC Sensation] robotdave:
Hello all,

So I tried rooting my phone yesterday, found out I was on 1.27.0000 and almost gave up but then I found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1632553&highlight=downgrade

I got root access and then (here's where I did the stupid bits) I skipped doing the S-OFF bit, skipped backing up my current ROM and chucked Cyanogen 9 on there.

Now it just loops at the C9 boot up screen.

I've tried the S-OFF step after but get an error that it 'cannot find smart_IO.crd'

I've tried downloading an RUU.exe. If I run the exe from fastboot USB I eventually get an error and on the phone it says Security error.

I've extracted the ROM.zip from the RUU, renamed it to PG58img.zip, chucked it on the root of my sd card but this doesn't appear to do anything.

I've tried installing the zip - nada.

Tried overwriting my ROM with Elegencia, seems to install ok but I still get the C9 looping boot screen.

Any other tips? I've searched and searched the forums and tried everything I can find!!
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
nw extract the boot.img from the last rom you've flashed

keep that in your adb folder (folder where you got adb.exe)

connect your phone in fastboot/bootloader to pc (phone reads "fastboot usb" after that)

then open command window from the adb folder

type this command

fastboot flash boot boot.img

then reboot using this command

fastboot reboot

then it should boot

after that immediately i mean IMMEDIATELY read the below guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631861

read read read the above guide completely ..understand what different you need to do (ppl with S-ON and unlocked bootloader) TO PROPERLY FLASH A ROM
[HTC Sensation] robotdave:
Didn't help I'm afraid.

Boot.img went down fine, rebooted and still get the CM9 bootloop.

I looked at the guide anyway and the author linked to another boot.img so I tried that too, same thing.
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
first check the md5 of the downloaded cm9

use this md5 checker to verify the md5 of the rom (if you got no md5 tool)

then do a complete wipe ..i.e wipe /boot /system /data and factory reset

flash the rom again

then extract the boot.img from the cm9 rom and flash it via fastboot (as explained earlier)
[HTC Sensation] robotdave:
OK got the tool, verified the md5.

When I do a wipe data/factory reset I get an error:

E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2

It then completes.

Same result however :(
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
format the sdcard and do the wipe again
[HTC Sensation] robotdave:
Formatted the ccard (there's now not a singe thing on it, even had a look through windows.

Same thing when I wipe though

Pushed the boot.img again and now it freezes on the white HTC boot screen.

Progress?

Tried the RUU.exe again but still go the same security error
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
AHH F**K it we'll try fresh/from starting completely

first post the complete details present in bootloader

also the output of the following command

phone should be connected to pc from bootloader and then open command window in adb folder (folder where you got adb.exe typically C:/AndroidSDK/tools or C:/AndroidSDK/platform-tools)

and then type this

fastboot getvar all (post everything except IMEI )

then we can decide what to do next
[HTC Sensation] robotdave:
OK.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leonya:
Hi all,

Apologies for a newb question. I'm trying to install ice-cream sandwich via Odin, and as far as I can tell I'm doing everything right, but nothing is happening.

Here are the details of my phone currently:

Model Number: GT-I9100

Android version 2.3.3

Baseband version: I910000XXKF1

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555 root@DELL101 #2

Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XWKF3

When I try to update the phone via Kies it tells me that the firmware is "up to date".

I tried to update via Odin using this firmware: I9100XWLP8_I9100OPSLP4_OPS However, after I hit start, I get the following message in Odin, and it stops right there.

<ID:0/006> Added!!

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> I9100XWLP8_I9100OPSLP4_I9100XXLPS_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..

<ID:0/006> File analysis..

<ID:0/006> SetupConnection..

Am I using the wrong firmware? May I have potentially left out an important step?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atifsh:
1: restart your PC

2: do not start kies / close it if open

3: put your phone in download mode

4: plug in the USB cable in the motherboard side of the USB socket.

5: start Odin flash

6: after boot using dial code wipe.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leonya:
Unfortunately I did all that. Anything else I might be missing? Does it matter which Kernel the phone is currently using?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arunm:
Y dont you try rooting your device and then flash a custom rom via recovery mod
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adam Hui:
Check & repeat it again if u've missed one of :

1. Download Intratech Odin v.3 1.85 (*credits to Intratech)

2. Uninstall Kies (coz he hates Odin :D & I'm not kidding..)

3. Reboot PC

4. Run Odin 1.85

5. Select the rom by clicking (just) PDA button & tick one package & autoreboot (don't even touch pit)

6. Navigate to download mode then Connect ur phone to PC

7. Detected (yellow)

8. Click start

9. If its success it'll be 'pass' & do the phone rebooting..then disconnect from PC.

EDiT :

Btw kernel u've been currently used wasn't matter coz official stock roms will do a system full wipe & format (not include ext mmc) but avoid LPQ5.

Good luck mate..:cool:

It could be some 3rd party app interfering.

I would suggest you to go through all the apps such as task killers, android boosters, battery defender ( other apps of same kind, i hope you got the idea ) and either revise their settings or uninstall them to see if the problem exists :)

[Galaxy S III General] danarama:
Sorry but:

-Bootloader (FASTBOOT): phone mode (while connected to USB mode with usb debug enabled)

Is wrong. Bootloader and fastboot are not the same. Also USB debugging mode is an android thing, when you are not booted into android (eg into fastboot or bootloader) then usb debugging mode is not used
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
This.

And debug has to do with adb not fastboot.

The more time passes, it seem less likely that 3.14.605.10 will be the OTA release. There seemed to have been a flurry of leak activity leading up to that one, but nothing since. Since many of us have been running ROMS based on 3.14.605.10, what is wrong with it? Or is there other reasons for Verizon not to have released it?
[HTC Rezound] jdfrye:
isnt it missing Global Phone capabilities?
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
As others have said, them just having released the new incredible phone, the update for this might be a few weeks out so as not to stomp on that phone.

I bet they're working on finding a way to keep the bloatware from being disabled for stock users despite it being a native ability of ics..

How do you disable bloatware on ICS? Do you have to be rooted to disable the apps?

Settings

Disable annoying bloat

[Motorola Droid 4] niai_mack:
hi last night (very late) i was trying out a miui rom i am trying to port, i used the wrong update-script and i seems as though its overwritten my unsafe partition even though i was in safe. i couldnt see the safeboot splash but could still get to it form tools in the bootloader menu, i now have the safeboot menu back but no touch buttons. i have done a restore but i only have 2 backups and this is making me think i haven't backed up when i got on the leak.

so dose any one have a backup they would let me try to see if this is the case, can i fastboot out of this (i dont really understand how fastboot works with this phone as its locked down), or is there anything else i can do to get it back working i would like to keep root if possible.
[Motorola Droid 4] skypagers:
Are you still able to boot your phone when you try to boot your phone of you can then the best thing for you is that try to install fresh stock room of your phone repeat the whole process again that would be better.

If I or anyone else have helped you in any kind of way please press THANK YOU button.
[Motorola Droid 4] skypagers:
what type of phone do you have.if you Samsung thing will go fast and smooth to go back to stock Rom

If I or anyone else have helped you in any kind of way please press THANK YOU button.
[Motorola Droid 4] niai_mack:
i have droid 4 this is the droid 4 sub forum, i can boot the safe rom, i used to be able to boot non-safe (had miui on it) but after trying a restore form backup its not booting. i am still new to safe boot i dont fully know how it works.
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
I think you should be able to use the process for going from one leak to another to to get back to a stock ICS leak system. Follow the instructions in the Droid 4 Utility Updated thread.

Sent from my Droid 4
[Motorola Droid 4] niai_mack:
been thinking that and hoping it to as i think there is root for ICS now, but you are ment to unfreeze apps and uninstall safeboot before you upgrade both of witch i cant do, there is no apps to unfreeze to as the partitions gone.

and safeboot is the only thing that is making this phone not bricked.
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
Unfreezing and uninstalling recovery shouldn't matter the way I understand it. Fastbooting .219 should wipe that stuff out allowing you to freshly install the ICS leak.

Sent from my Droid 4
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Yea, I'd fastboot "back" to 219, which of course WILL brick you, but also allow you to flash the ICS leak, which should get you back to a working phone.

Luckily there are root methods for ICS now, so you don't need to have root on 219 to enjoy root on (ICS) 213 :laugh:
[Motorola Droid 4] Rick#2:
Don't worry man, I've done it a dozen times already.

Just flash the system.img and the preinstall.img .219 fastboot files and erase your data and cache partitions with moto-fastboot:

moto-fastboot erase userdata
moto-fastboot erase cache
moto-fastboot flash system system.img
moto-fastboot flash preinstall preinstall.img
moto-fastboot flash boot [boot.img for .208/.213 kernel]

(You can skip erasing your /data partition if you want but unless you really need something on there, it's usually best to just start fresh.)

You can find the moto-fastboot executables on xda here with a quick search.

Otherwise you can just do a normal fastboot flash through RSD Lite but the method above is a bit quicker since you only really need to re-flash your /system and /preinstall partitions. If you choose to use RSD Lite, then you have to delete the boot.img file in the .219 package and replace it with the .208/.213 boot.img that you can find here on xda.

Pop the corresponding leaked .208/.213 update .zip file onto your external sdcard and reboot your phone into recovery mode by pressing Vol-Up+Vol-Down+Power and choosing Recovery Menu from the screen with white text on a black background and follow the prompts to install the update from your external card and you're good to go.
[Motorola Droid 4] niai_mack:
thanks i will try this soon.
[Motorola Droid 4] niai_mack:
i have updated to 213 now and it boots in to the animated droid eye but dose nothing not even getting a logcat.

got it working just updated again then wiped catch and data then it booted thanks a lot.

From the changelog of the new Tegra game Heroes Calls in Play Store:

•Fixed a bug starting the game for the first time with no Internet connection

•Fixed the tavern linking to Facebook and inviting friends

•Fixed a couple of crashes on pre GB devices

•No fix yet for the Transformer Prime crashes, sorry. We are hoping a OTA update fixes that, in the meantime we hear "Performance" mode helps.

•Seeing quite a few corrupted downloads from the play store. If your game fails to load, please try re downloading.

Just wanted to bring this to your attention. Even Game Devs are at a loss about the crashes and hope for an OTA to fix it....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] omac_ranger:
I've played that game for about 2 hours on the Virtuous ROM without any crashes as of yet... When are you experiencing them?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theandies:
I've got to level 7 and have not had one crash yet. Stock ROM not rooted.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MXR2:
user experience varies from device to device when it comes to TF201.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
Well its like this:

The longer my prime runs without a restart the more likely it becomes that games crash. Especially 3D games. Almost ALL my polygon based games are affected. Modern Combat3, ShadowGun, Fish live (aquarium game), Hero's calls etcetc. After a restart it runs fine for an evening and the next day they will crash again. The issue has been discussed before in other threads.

I just wanted to show you guys, that game devs have these issues as well. Hopefully ASUS does something about it, because i guess its pretty bad publicity when game devs write something like "game crashes because of bad software on the Transformer Prime" in their game description.

I'm hoping ASUS makes this issue top priority, thats all :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
Just installed and played for about an hour with no crashes. Boy that game is fun. I was looking for a Diablo 3 style game and this totally fits the bill! Just wish it had an online mode.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Istarth:
I am totally frustrated, this is a nightmare I hate you ASUS !!!!

Many times I thought I discovered the solution.... but.... no... is there ! again and again ! CRASH CRASH CRASH

Out of games my Prime is GREAT ! but dammmmmmmmm every game is crashing !

I am a new user of HTC One X with also Tegra 3 and I have no crashes at all ! so dam ASUS is your fault ! I am fed up ! I don't know what to do ! I have tried EVERYTHING:

- Mods

- ATP_Tweak + Tune + SIO

- Cold Boot

- "Just one process" and settings like that

- Remove nearly al my apps !

- No task Killer

- No Mail Accounts

- Like ! million of factory reset and any kind of wipes !

What the hell is happening !

Sorry guys but I am totally frustrated !

I bought my Prime 8 Months Ago ! And still the same !!!!!!!!!!!

I don't want to unlock it becouse of I am starting to think in RMA !

Is there any new news about these issues ?

Should I wait for JB before any move ?

....

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YoMarK:
x2. Same thing with the graphical distortions some people have on JellyBean Roms, while most don't have these issues.

Software is exactly the same, so it must be hardware problems/differences.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whycali:
What exactly would you RMA to cure? There is no solution to bad software aside from replacing it with good software. Broken glass...RMA, Broken camera....probably RMA but maybe not, bluetooth/wifi dropout...not sure if they are fixing that or not but I read somewhere here they are, BAD DRIVERS, SOFTWARE, I/O....UNLOCK and fix it better than ASUS is going to.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Istarth:
Then... What the hell Can I do.......... I just have problems, problems and more problems.... I am fed up ! What the hell can we do !!! I even don't know if my problem can be solved trying RMA.... So what can I do ! This is not the best tablet ever... It is the worse by far !!! Who the hell wants a Broken Ferrari that when u go above 50 Km/h the car stops ???

I am fed up of losing my time reading, reading reading.... every day every week every month ! Just With the hope to fix it !

ASUS EPIC FAIL ! I am not a troll ! I am an android user since nearly the start ! I love Android !

I am a totally frustrated user that spend 600 € 8 months ago in a piece of NOTHING !
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whycali:
My opinion is you unlock it and put a decent ROM on it. Or you sell it. Either way it won't matter that unlocking voids the warranty.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThiaiZ:
i have posted the solution a few threads below. The problem with my Prime is slow internal memory(caused by possibly low quality memory or old drivers), we can't replace the memory or update the drivers, so the solutions is to move your games data to a fast microsd card and bind the directories using an app called"directory bind", after that all games will run normaly with normal framerate.

I run every single gameloft game or tegra 3 games without any lag or crashs or low framerate.

Send me a PM if you need help setting up your prime

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] point_pt:
Prime is known for having slow random write speeds on storage memory. But... why does a game needs to do heavy random writes on storage?? It should be able to work only on volatyle memory (RAM) with low sorage needs... Google Chrome, wich is a browser, and like every browser, needs to use storage to write, and they appear to have find the light to solve the issues on Prime... in conclusion, this excuse by game developers is bull****, in my oppinion
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Istarth:
PM sended !

I have to say that after going back to stock launcher (empty + Big Clock), my prime seems not perfect but more stable ! I was using Apex launcher + Big Clock + Tapatalk Widgets + poweramp widget + a lot of Folder Organizer widgets.

Things was going worse after adding a lot of folder organizer widgets (1x1 widgets).

So I am starting to think FolderOrganizer is causing a lot of problems ! (Not in my last tablet or my Sensation... neither in my HOX...). In all these 8 months removing folderorganizer is something I have never try ! I will give it a try together with ThiaiZ solution.

I am going to investigate.... will give u my feedback.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UndisputedGuy:
I don't own a prime but when your games crash, does the screen flicker before it crashes? This used to happen on the TF300 but has since stopped since the update to Jellybean. I don't think Jellybean is that far away for prime users so maybe you can expect a fix when you get jellybean.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jgaf:
Same here got the TF300T with jb there has been no crashes so far. I used Ram manager pro while on ics and it seemed to prevent crashes using the hard mode while playing graphics intense games. Give it a try
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_admiral:
Cheers, just downloaded Ram Manager Pro and set to Hard Gaming and can actually play Horn and Real Racing 2, which stopped and haven't worked even after many soft reboots. Just hope it lasts, as most of these fixes in this forum seem to only temporarily work :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ironlion45:
You know, I noticed after installing the roms here that my crash issues vanished. There is something to be said about the compatability of Asus firmware.

I too had crashes on some of the THD (Tegra-only) games. While they still happen on the CM or other custom roms, I found they are much much less.

But lets not blame ASUS; From what I've been told it's related to Intel's code that has caused most of the issues with THD games, and they're not exclusive to the Prime, either.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Istarth:
ASUS is selling a full product... When an user buy a Prime, is looking for power... And when prime goes under heavy load is the moment when all problems start.... This means that u spend 600€ in a high end tablet to be able to use it just for a normal multimedia / web / office usage which is OK but can be done nearly exactly the same with cheaper tablets...

And more important....

As I said in other posts....

I own a HOX... as u know is also a Tegra 3 device.... and... well... I have... let's see... let me count how many crashes since I bought it... mmm.... mmmm..... 0 ! 0 ! 0 !

So... the only guilty here is ASUS ! That let users buy a product that doesn't work properly ! We are here to 1 Year since Prime Arrives !

I am going to try bid solution and Ram Manager PRO.
