[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItsNotRocketScience:
I did not mess arnd with any app or files aftr I found these files present in my Gallery. However, this morning when I checked the Gallery again, I found that the blank files/icon have doubled; now there are 2 blank files/icons present for evry image in my Gallery. I had cleared out 1 folder yesterday, but that folder now contains 1 set of the blank files.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItsNotRocketScience:
Hey Braxos.. Many thanks for ur solution...

I did as u explained, cleared data frm the Settings... But the files are still there... They have not been deleted...

Also, I am not sure if these blank files are duplicates of the images. I understand tht they are non-existent (as they are not being reported by the antivirus, nor are they visible in the laptop).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItsNotRocketScience:
Hey Braxos.. I think I messed up some Application setting.. I selected the "Clear Data" option for the "Media Storage"... And now everything is gone.. My saved images, the blank files, all the songs....

I am able to see the images/songs frm My Files -> External_hd..

Please help..

Download SD Maid from Play store.

Go to system cleaner in SD Maid and delete all of your thumbnail files.

Then go to Media Storage in Settings Applications All and clear data and cache.

Reboot and all should be okay.

It will take time after the reboot for Media Storage to re-index your media files so be patient.

FF :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] incisivekeith:
I would be very careful using that app. I had my sd card almost corrupted after using that app and clearing all the thumbnails.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoonCocoon:
Don't know if you noticed that it only happened to the images on external sdcard.

My way is to delete those corrupted images manually in Gallery.

I also find out that it usually happens after I flashed something in cwm or force close gallery application during media scanning.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goodm7sn:
Search before posting mate. It's been already answered somewhere here.

Look for media storage app.. Clear its data.. Reboot the device and leave it for 5 to 10 minutes to rebuild everything up from scratch again. And u will be fine. I've had it and fixed it many times by doing this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FabreFaction:
I've never had a problem with it.

It might depend on your read ahead and cache settings in your kernel for SD card if you're having problems.

You might also want to check how aggressive the I/O is on your kernel.

If you have problems with AS corruption it is extremely unlikely to be an app, more often than not it is your kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ItsNotRocketScience:
need some clarifications

I got the solution for my prob. Goto Settings --> Application --> All --> Media Storage --> Clear Data. Rebooted the device, waited for 10-15 mins for the cleared data (images + songs) to get reloaded. All the blank icons were cleared from the Gallery + Media Playlist. I did not use SD Maid.

However, I am very curious to know, whatever affected my Images + Songs, did it also affect any other data, as in some other files in the phone. I only know abt the Image & Songs coz I use them very frequently. But it might have happened that blank files were also created for other data as well, which are located deep inside some folder.

Also, do you have any idea what cld have created these blank files ? A crappy app or something ?

Fix

That just killed all my Music, images and videos in the gallary and music player. The final fix is to delete all the .nomedia files from the SD card. That fixes that problem.

[HTC One X] droident:
So tomorrow I have a HTC One X being delivered :D

Super-excited, but I have one question - should I update it when I get it or leave 'as is'. Reason being as I don't want to prevent any possibility of being able to put CFW on the device. Give or take a few weeks I'll probably jump off Sense and go for Cyanogen or something.

I know this a very noob question - it's just I'm not familiar with this particular device - rather the Xperia Play and Wildfire :)

Also, any things I should know? :P

Thanks!
[HTC One X] Sckank:
You can update it, it should'nt do any difference. But remember you can be charged for repairs from htc if you do. I did, they changed the motherboard but I still got it for free.

You could wait for s-off. _If_ they manage to crack the damn thing, you won't loose the warrany because the bootloader is still locked.

Must still must say that sense is really good, and the 2.05 coming soon is superb, and so far I havent rooted again yet. ;)

Hope it helps you decide.
[HTC One X] PhoenixFx:
Don’t unlock it right away, because like Sckank said you’ll loose warranty. There are some common hardware issues with the phone (i.e WiFi antenna problems), look in the general section to find out more, so wait a while and test everything out before you attempt it, or better yet wait for S-OFF (which is what I’m doing).
[HTC One X] SandmanPT:
hi,

became confused... :S

if was possible to make s-off you don't lose the warranty?

i know that you can reverted to s-on again ...but they will notice or not?

the bootloader can be relocked or isn't the same thing?
[HTC One X] Sckank:
Nope if they can s-off then s-on is no problem and you're completely back to stock. And you don't have to agree to that you loose your warrany. And they can't see that.

Nope not the same thing, they will see that. It will say "relocked", not locked.
[HTC One X] LuffyPSP:
when you unlock without s-off, you need to pass through htc-dev, which will make it record your unlock status. and also, when you relock your bootloader, it will display "Re-Locked Bootloader" instead of :Locked Bootloader". With s-off, none of them will change. :D

EDIT : beaten. :( haha.
[HTC One X] Sckank:
Still, a more complete answer about htc dev ;)
[HTC One X] SandmanPT:
thanks to both :)
[HTC One X] droident:
Thanks guys! :D

I'll go ahead and update for now then.

I got my new phone this morning, unfortunately it has some nasty 'backlight leak' along the bottom of the screen so O2 are getting a replacement out to me tomorrow. It's a gorgeous phone, just hoping the replacement doesn't suffer the same problem...

It's pretty minor and I'm perhaps a little OCD but I showed someone else and they were like "it's all wavy o_O"
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
that's normal isn't it? ive had 6 and its been on every one of them, don't keep your hopes up for getting one that doesn't have it.

edit: saying that, im looking now and i can't see it.. weird.
[HTC One X] droident:
I think it generally affects white and brighter backgrounds. I thought it might be 'normal' when I found various threads about 'stagelight' backlight leak, though this was after I'd given O2 a quick ring. Can't cancel the replacement now, just hope it's not a refurb replacement.

Not *too* bothered about it... it seems to have lessened since I first booted it up oddly.

All being said, I would consider this to be a defect really - the only time I've seen 'stagelight' bleed like this was after I had a smartphone go through the wash. HTC need to improve the manufacturing process considering the cost of these handsets near half a grand.

[HTC One S] Orical:
Does the name have to be the same or can I change it too "custom.img"
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
The name doesn't matter, but the contents must be raw rgb565 data.

Just put the file on your sdcard, and then from an adb shell, dd it into mmcblk0p14.

-Jobo

Edit: Attachment is flashable in recovery. You can just replace the file in /cache/

Edit: To work around the 20 attachment limit, I use this post to 'host' flashable zips to link to from post #1.
[HTC One S] musky:
quick question

Just curious, exactly what file do I replace in cache?
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Inside the zip. There is only one file inside /cache/ and thats the splash.

-Jobo
[HTC One S] Orical:
Ok did a flash and it worked out great, the only time you will get that HTC warning in red letters across the splash is if your not using the stock boot image, if your using a raw image it will display but other wise it looks fine (no warning displayed).

Thanks again, I'll post up some work when I'm done.

For those that have never done this before here's what you do.

First you want to back up the original image, there's nothing worse than changing something and finding out you didn't back up the original and this is no exception SO go to terminal emulator and type this line:

This will backup to the sdcard as an image so now go put that in a safe place on your computer just in case you format your sdcard down the road. Don't lose this.

Rename the image that you put on your sdcard to:

and save it, make sure its on the root of the sdcard other wise you need to provide the path. Then load terminal emulator and type:

The transfer in and out will be exactly the same if you typed this in correctly and its highly important that you type in the correct mmcblk number or you could be in for a long night.

I backed up everything just in case to do this type this out and take the file image and put it away.

This is a huge image but its a full image of your entire device including all partitions, this is more than a nandoid its everything.

-Jobo
[HTC One S] Orical:
What are you using to convert the splash.jpg to splash.img? I tried an older method but for some reason it's not working.
[HTC One S] randomnoob83:
can anyone turn this into a rgb565 data.
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
ffmpeg will do it,

ffmpeg -i splash1.bmp -f rawvideo -pix_fmt rgb565 splash.565

or alternatively you can save it as a 16 bit .bmp and then strip the headers off or tail the last 1036800 bytes. (You'll have to flip it as (0,0) is bottom left in .bmp files.)

I bet there are nicer tools but I haven't looked.

-Jobo
[HTC One S] Orical:
Yeah I've looked and the one released is strictly 480x800, I've never used that method you listed above but ill give it a shot everything I did before was with that tool on the mytouch 4g.
[HTC One S] ragnarokmk2:
You can also use that Paint.Net program as described in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=649890

Pretty easy to do it using that method, you just have to consider the different resolution of the OneS and follow steps 1-3. I converted an image to rgb565 with it, worked like a charm.

BUT! I can't get it to flash. Tried with the flashable zip (placed it in the cache folder) and tried installing with TWRP. Comes out as successful, but I still get the default HTC quietly brilliant splash.

Also tried dd-ing the image with a terminal emulator, also no-go.

Running HTC Stock Rom, Vodafone DE/UK, 1.78, rooted.

Attached the image in a zip, if someone wants to try it. It can be opened with Paint.Net. You have to supply it with the correct resolution tho: 540x960
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Works for me.

I wonder what could make the difference...

Do you have a signed boot image in place or a custom one?

Do you get the red 'This build is for development only' text overlaid?

-Jobo
[HTC One S] Darknites:
I tryed the Google one and it didnt work and same as ragnarokmk2 TWRP says successful. I'm on Miui and have the red text.
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
I don't have 1.14.0005. I guess it doesn't give us anything special? Only did the ones I have RUUs or OTAs for, and 1.14.0004 on request.

Yes. Exactly that. I just replaced the text with spaces. And then packaged it up in a flashable zip similar to the bootsplash zips but writing to p12 instead of p14.

Ahem... I just flashed the 1.06 hboot (I am on hboot 1.06 of course) and hit reboot in TWRP and my precious One S just turned off and then... nothing.

I keep holding the Power button there is nothing happening :/ ****, even the charging light won't come on when I connect it to my computer, although Windows recognizes something and is searching for "QHSUSB_DLOAD" drivers, which it did not find any drivers for in Windows update.

I am freaking, is there anyone able to help?

/**** **** **** **** **** which is of course all my fault because I S OFF'ed a friend's One S and did not S OFF mine. Which I, of course forgot, so I basically flashed the hboot without being S OFF. So good advice for everyone else: Don't try this

Thanks. I downloaded the RUU and extracted and edited the hboot file from it. Tested and added.

Sorry to hear it. You can look at the downgrade thread if that method can be used to push a clean hboot file in your situation. Otherwise yes, JTAG unbrick.

I would have thought that trying to flash p12 with S-On would just do nothing, and this is probably true for other hboots than 1.06 and 1.09.

Added a warning to the post with the hboot zips. Will update the OP as well.

I have read this whole thread...

and for some reason I try to create my own bootsplash it fails to flash. Any of the zips posted that I have tried (I think 4 of them anyway) they work. I set the image to (whatever it says in the OP) 540x960 (?) pixels jpeg. I did read the format didn't matter. Flashed the resulting zip. No go. Hboot 1.06 still S-On (that's another story). Would someone be willing to make one for me?

Edit: The phrase I read was "Format shouldn't matter". After changing the format of the pic to PNG it works.
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Hi Bowmanspeer,

Were you using the online generator? (It should work with .jpg files and I've seen it work on .jpg files.)

If so, what went wrong / how did it fail?

Did you get a .zip file at all? You should.

Was the zip itself valid? It should be.

Did it contain a cache/splash.565 file? It should.

What was the exact size of the .565 file? It should be 1036800 bytes.

Did you get any error in recovery when flashing? You should not.

Sorry for al the questions. I'm happy that it worked out for you in the end, but it's still weird that it would fail on your .jpg picture.

Hey guys. Just trying to return to stock and can't find an "unmodified" HBOOT. I used one of the ones from this thread which removes the red warning text, but if I'm returning to stock I wanted to flash back a completely unmodified HBOOT. Preferably 1.13, but 2.15 would be ok too.

Anyone know where I can get them? (as a recovery flash-able zip preferably, as I'm still S-OFF)

Thanks
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
You can extract hboot-1.13 from the

Europe_1.78.401.2

RUU or OTA.

Then you can just dd it into p12, or make a flashable .zip my taking one of the ones I posted up and replacing the /cache/hboot.nb0 file. If you have trouble extracting, packaging or flashing it, I can make a flashable .zip for you later.

Thanks. Will give that a go (shouldn't be a problem)

*Will call back if I need a zip made up :) *
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
AW: [HOW-TO] Change your Boot Splash + Flashable ZIPs + Online Generator + Warning Go

The script in the zip looks for a hboot.nb0 inside the zip so you'd need to rename the hboot you extract from the RUU or adjust the script to the name.

Actually I have already made all stock hboots into zips for myself but I currently can't access them. So if all else fails I could upload them later.

Thanks man. I have renamed the nb0 file and dropped it into a zip - I just haven't flashed it yet!! Don't worry about uploading your ones just yet, I think I'll be OK (although it may be a useful thread for people wanting to go back to stock, especially now that we have S-Off and things are a lot easier to change (and break!))

I'm just loving the LiquidSmooth ROM I'm running at the moment and until I've spoken to HTC and had it confirmed that they'll do a repair I've not done anything about going back to stock.

I'm just getting all my ducks in a row, so I know what I have to do if and when the time comes to send off the phone...!

original unmodified hboots as recovery-flashable zips

Update: Instead of flashing hboot in recovery, it is recommended to flash via fastboot. See post#274 for fastboot flashable zips with modded and original hboots.​

Original post:

These are the original unmodified hboots as recovery-flashable zips. For all except 1.14.0005. that's the one that cat2115 made and I don't have the RUU or OTA it comes from.

All of them tested on my own device before posting. Must be S-Off.​
[HTC One S] Wel1973:
Hi, only a question ... please.

You says unmodified Hboots..... Is it possible having S-Off flash one of these Hboots and they would eliminate flags, backing to original?.

I refer to the flags of Tempered and Relocked, of course.

Can you verify this fact, please?

It is possible that I am wrong but I want to go out of doubts...
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
The only modification in the other hboots (in post#148) was to remove the red warning text. If you cleared your tampered flag, it will still be cleared.

All this will do is bring back the red warning text.
