[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
If anyone is curious as to why he needs this and can't use something else... The original owner had the stock ICS rooted ROM on the device. The OP flashed a new ROM without flashing the kernel first. Now the device will not go past HBOOT (he CAN get to recovery). Here's the kicker, his computer no longer reads his device when he plugs it in. He tried other USB cords/ports, tried adb/fastboot and no luck. So essentially this is where we are.

- Stock Rogers ICS kernel

- Some other ROM

- Unlocked bootloader and S-ON

- No access to computer

Can't flash a kernel because no access to computer, can't boot up the phone to use an app to flash the kernel, not S-OFF. His SD card is not corrupt however, he can take it out and read/write, just not when it's in the Raider. RUU and PH zip won't work because unlocked bootloader and not able to connect to computer.

So essentially I think what might work is if someone can offer us a ROOTED ROGERS ICS ROM zip. Also what might work is a nand backup from someone on the stock Rogers ROM. This way he can put it on the SD card, flash/restore from recovery, and then he will have the matching kernel+ROM.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
I have a stock ICS RUU Rogers if you want it?

I got it from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1416836

But download takes forever. PM me and ill put it on my dropbox.

EDIT:

Errr never mind. Let me see if i can get a NAND backup of my ROM
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
That would be great man. I'm really thinking that might do the trick, everything else isn't working.

Just curious, what recovery are you running? OP, what recovery are you running as well? I don't think it'll matter if you two have different recoveries but it doesn't hurt to check.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
Hey dude, do you guys want the RUU or the CWM backup?

I just flashed CWM v5.5.0.4, this one here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1423075

Im currently backing up my device ATM. Will go back to stock ICS and backup that after. Will post the stock ICS in 40 mins or so (eating and doing this at the same time :p ).
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
sorry, hit a little snag. I end up having to re-flash, re-root, etc the whole works since i got a CWM recovery loop.

Here's the RUU of the rogers one:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6792158/RUU....21_34.30.701040.22_release_264282_signed.exe

Im heading in a bit, so ill do a backup using WCX recovery method instead of CWM.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
My recovery is CWM 5.5.0.4

I've already downloaded the same one but as my comp can't find my device when I plug it, I can't run the RUU..

Edit: I need to wait for a nand backup
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
Okay, lets try this...

this is the Nand backup of stock ICS Rogers. Let me know if you're having problems.

Edit: that didnt work...

Sorry, but you have to download the files individually

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6792158/BCDS-20120712-2044/boot.img

Just put all 5 files in your Nandroid backup folder and it should recognize the backup.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
When I open the link of nandroid.md5 a new page open with this written :

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
is this the nandroid.md5 ? or you zipped everything ?

Edit: n/m you zipped everything, now what I do with it ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
You should be able to go into recovery and then go to restore and select that zip.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
Do I have to keep it zipped ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
Not sure if you need it zipped, but when i restored mine - i just put all the files under the folder "Nandroid" and when i boot it to recovery - just choose to restore and it should see your backup.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
It's restoring at the moment, let's hope my phone will boot after and not freeze at htc logo :O
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
Do I have to do something after restoring ? I rebooted and it's still freezing at htc logo :(
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Damn... The guy before you flashed the ICS stock ROM right? Not the GB one? Just making sure.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
-_- !!! I remember it was the GB not ICS ....... !!!!

Does it mean that it's freezing because I'm trying to flash a ICS and not a GB rom ??
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Yea, that'll be a problem. Now we need to find someone on stock Rogers GB but has it rooted. You don't have the right hboot/kernel to mess with ICS. Hopefully trying to restore an ICS ROM didn't jack anything up worse than it already is. HUGE thanks to Prolab for everything he's done, it was worth a try.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
Yeah, I can't thank him enouph for what he's done !! And you too !

I've downloaded this ROM.. can I flash it using recovery you think ? : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1608672
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
Hm... Nice find. It might be based off the Rogers GB. Go ahead and PM the OP with a link to that thread and ask if he used the Rogers GB as the base. If so, then it might work.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] TasteOfGlory:
Didn't work, got an error..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
Yah, its the stock ICS Rogers ROM.

Did you try to delete all files, cache, dalvik files before you flash?

Edit: sorry, didn't see the rest of the posts.

I never tried that ROM. I was with the stock GB but rooted and unlocked bootloader.

Upgrading from GB to ICS, i had to relock the bootloader and follow the procedure slapshot's sticky.

Sorry dude, i didn't keep a nandroid backup of the stock GB Rogers.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] slapshot30:
The original owner was on GB. :p

He got it figured out though. Somewhere between restoring your backup and trying to flash another ROM, something relocked his bootloader and his PC was able to see the phone again. He got the RUU to work and he's up and running, ready to root and flash a custom ROM. Huge thanks for your willingness to help out!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Prolab:
Sweet! Glad that he got it all worked out!

I have a rooted Thunderbolt that is successfully rooted and has no issues.

I've just noticed that when I have my screen locked and my screen is off, if press and/or hold both volume down and volume up at the same time... it will vibrate. When I turn my phone screen back on and unlock the lock screen, I'll get a notification at the bottom of my screen saying "shell has been granted superuser permissions."

This is absolutely nothing to worry about, correct?

hi guys,

i just want to clarify something base on this article:

http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105...oftware-patch-to-avoid-galaxy-nexus-sales-ban

Did Google patch up and remove the universal search feature on the newly OTA update of Android Jellybean 4.1.1 for Galaxy Nexus HSPA+ version ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
As has already been covered in a few articles,

no

it was not removed.

View attachment 1190365

Surely this infringing part will be removed with a simple update in the Play Store to the Search app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] boogaley:
Google Now on 4.1.1 doesn't send text message

Although Google has stated that the new 4.1.1 update for jellybean didn't affect universal search on our phones, can anyone verify that they can send text messages via Google Now?

I launch Google Now

I say, "Send text to (name), has Google Now been dumbed down?"

Google Now then lists the recipients name and a button to 'Send Message' appears.

I press the 'Send Message' button but nothing happens.

Normally, it would launch Messaging and send the text for me. Can someone verify that this command stills works? Thanks.

So, my sister infuse recently got into boot loop. I couldn't get into download mode with all the 3 buttons method, so I decided to get a usb jig. It arrived today but once it enters download mode it leaves it after a couple seconds so I can't even plug the usb cable into it. I tried charging the phone for 6 hours but when I plug it in, it goes in a charge loop where it resets and shows the charging circle every couple of second. Anybody know any other tips that made help? I'm thinking it turning to a hardware brick instead of a software brick.

It's possible your power button is messed up...

Also you tried download mode wrong...three fingers is for recovery...

Download mode:

Pull battery

Put battery back in

Hold volume up+down

Plug USB cord with heimdal or Odin running on pc

You should now be in download mode

Hi all,

I am currently having emanon v6 last night i tried to install newer version of busybox v1.20.2 coz of this i have to uninstall the previous version and due to some problem newer version did not installed, and when i tried to reboot it got stuck on boot screen. Is there any way to get it working without formatting or can anyone create a zip. I don't want to format or reinstall the rom.:crying::crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
best solution is to flash the rom again without wiping a single thing and you will get your from booted

flashed the ROM again but after wiping data all things lost, tried a few things but all in vain..!!

anyways thanks for the info, will try it next time if this kind of error comes B)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] EVIL THOR:
I can do the flashable zip for solve your problem easily, tell me where is your busybox (sbin or xbin) and which recovery you have and then i do a flashable zip.

P.s.

however the next time use this program for upgrade your busybox:

hi...

busybox is installed in xbin...even previously i tried to install using this only but then it failed...so i thought to reboot...and ended up with boot-loop then reinstall the rom
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dheeraj (dhlalit11):
maybe that busybox contains some special Unix tools which are important for the rom to function and after removing busybox the rom is not working properly

What rom are you using? Most likely you need to pull the framework-res.apk and decompile it edit the eri.xml in the res/xml folder then recompile the framework-res.apk and push it back to the phone.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ComputerGenuis2.0:
My Kindle was rooted but I decided to try my hand at installing a custom ROM. However, the ROM I tried would not work and the screen stayed black. However, thanks to TWRP I could install Kindle from Amazon again. The installation went thru smoothly, or so I thought. Now, when I boot the Kindle, I see the Kindle Fire Logo and it stays there. The Computer can see the Kindle as an Android device, Android Composite Device. But Kindle Fire Utility cannot see it so I could try and re-install it again. Any suggestions?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
Lacking information, so I'll just fill the voids with assumptions.

I *assume* you didn't wipe cache, dalvik-cache and most important when switching from a ROM to another, Factory Reset - this is the reason said custom ROM wouldn't work, and the reason flashing back update.zip (as you said you installed it, rather than restoring a backup) caused your KF to get stuck in a semi brick.

The most important question here is, do you have FFF installed?

If you do, fixing this is trivial. Just get into TWRP from FFF, wipe cache, dalvik-cache and factory reset and then install whatever ROM you'd like to try or use.

If you don't have FFF installed, then your solutions are to either get a factory cable (recommended) or to crack open the case and do the USB pin short trick. From there you can use fastboot to install FFF and boot into TWRP.

Alternatively, you can try "fastboot getvar product" or "adb shell idme bootmode 5001" to see if you get lucky.

Force Kindle into Fastboot

Ok, so I have finally got my Kindle to turn on, using the USB Short Trick. Now my only question is about getting the Kindle to boot into fastboot mode so I can re-format the sdcard partition and finally load a new ROM. I have tried several different commands and they all seem to miss the window of opportunity to start the kindle in fastboot mode. Is there any way, short of a factory cable, that one can make the kindle start in fastboot mode?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ComputerGenuis2.0:
Not fastboot get var

fastboot getvar product doesn't seem to do the trick. The kindle seems to be in fastboot mode but the adb shell cannot access the device.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
The problem is that you don't have the fastboot drivers installed (also, ADB will not work while fastboot is active) - Windows is painfully slow at detecting a device and installing its drivers, so by the time it even notices anything, the fastboot window is already over.

To solve this, use firekit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1430038

The script that will probably suit your needs the most is usb_install_fff_twrp.

I have TWRP and FFF installed. However, upon booting into TWRP, the sdcard partition cannot be mounted, to the Kindle that is, and as such, I cannot mount the sdcard to the computer.
