If you've rooted it,why don't you flash that recovery.bat again as posted in the rooting tutorial

..

Then after going to recovery,you may flash CYANOGEN or jaggy ROM.

I have flashed it multiple times but to no avail :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhrsolanki2020:
hey bro .. see first off all before flashing ny thing new what you want to do now is go to hboot mode n just factory reset n just see what rom is on your device.. first make it BOOT which ever OS(ie stock or custom rom) is in the cell now..

for that you need to clear data.. just USE FACTORY RESET..

if it doesnt work then i guess you will have to S-OFF your device (idk how with a software but you can do it with XTC-CLIP ) or do it from a mobile retailer..

wipe everything... (learn ADB and fastboot commands)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
Hey everyone, I need some help. I flashed my Gnex to Yakju a few months ago using the official drivers and Android SDK with no problem. A friend of mine recently bought a Gnex and asked me to flash his phone. For some reason -fastboot devices couldn't recognize his phone when connected to the same computer that I used to flash my own Gnex. I can't unlock his bootloader as a result. I tried again with my own Gnex and my computer was able to recognize my phone. What did I do wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
Try reinstalling the drivers.

The same problem happened to me when I was trying to flash my friends Xoom.

I reinstalled the drivers and it located the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Psycho-:
You used the command 'fastboot devices' when you loaded the phone into the bootloader mode? Cause if you're in the android OS, you need to use 'adb devices' (assuming you enabled debugging under developer options)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
I should try that. Do I need to uninstall the old drivers first?

Ya it was in bootloader mode. I forgot to mention that when my friend's phone was in the Android OS, "adb devices" worked and my computer recognized his phone. So strange.

CWM is no more there after installing a new rom and new rom won't load. Then i have to flash the stock rom again > root it > install CWM. Again when i install any rom it would install normally but nothing gives a blank screen after reboot and the stock rom is not even there.

The situation is occurring with the following;

Phone: Sony Xperia ARC S (LT18i)

Bootloader: unlocked

Android version 2.3.4 (Build 4.0.2.A.42) -

I have made multiple attempts on installing new roms but nothing works. Every time i reboot after installation im left with a blank screen. Can anyone advise what the problem could be ?

Thanks

Did u flash the kernel for the ROM u flashed ? The ROM will not boot without its kernel.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iwarind:
you must be installing CWM into the system through one touch command prompt program.. as such as soon as the ROM changes and you wipe out data and cache, CWM disappears..try flashing a custom recovery kernel which are available even for stock roms.

Also follow these steps for a custom ROM (eg CM9):

download the ROM, extracted it into a folder, copy the boot.img where you can remember, then copy the original cm9 ZIP - not the extracted folder- into the root of SD..use fastboot mode of flashtools to flash the kernel boot.img which you had copied..its a recovery kernel so CWM should open..wipe out SD data..then cache..and then go into advanced option and clear dalvik..and then proceed to install zip from sd..then gapps.zip if u want..it should install fine..and then reboot.

Press Thanks if you think i was of help to you..:good:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtpocketz:
Thanks

Got it - Yes i was installing CWM within stock rom via market. though i tried to install it through adb/windows but still i guess the problem was all about not installing a custom recovery kernel.

Thanks a lot !

[HTC Rezound] heylailaa:
Haven't really heard much about this recently.. Anyone have any ideas on a working release of MIUI rom for the HTC Rezound CDMA? I know last said that it works but there's no SMS... I really enjoy this rom and have been waiting patiently. Just curious. Thanks.
[HTC Rezound] csong95:
miss read what you wrote, there is a easy way to fix for sms
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Not on CDMA...It's still mainly GSM.

I would have already ported MIUI 4 but my computer's acting all kinds of crazy with GRUB. It's really not that hard to do since we have working AOSP (well, for the most part.) so it would be full fledged MIUI 4 with the typical aosp bugs we have right now.
[HTC Rezound] excellentnuke:
Which MIUI build would you port? I'm thinking that one from an HTC One device would work, but I'm not too sure since there's no CMDA version.
[HTC Rezound] funnyangrykid:
there is a workaround.. check this site out.. http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/08/sms-using-email/ they will receive a text or mms (Not in their email) even though you sent it through an email.

to send an MMS, you'd type "Phone-Number-@vzwpix.com" (Without quotes)

I believe we're waiting on the ICS kernel source for siul's MIUI build.
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
I could if you tell me what to do. I have an used tower that I'm gonna use for latest Ubuntu. I'm pretty average with Linux usage
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
That's the thing, MIUI 4 is a lot more...flexible than the older versions. It's just porting over and swapping libs and other things. Edit: Of course, I forgot I might need to resize things unless I find the right base to use.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1499411 If anyone wants to take a shot at it. I have to download another Ubuntu image and I'm on slow internet right now. I'll try to get it at least ported over tonight and post DLs tomorrow. Only thing I'm not familiar with is setting permissions on updater-script.

---------- Post added at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

Since we have the RIL for AOSP cracked we don't need source to have a "working" build. We'll have the typical bugs but I'm debating on if I want to use the newest work they have and have a strict warning in the OP saying "S-ON ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" so nobody bricks. Just depends lol
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
well that sucks for s-off users
[HTC Rezound] TXI Kaze:
Not necessarily. For right now it "sucks" because of bugs. Chad and John have done an amazing job so far and I'd love to get a fully working CDMA MIUI
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shizophren:
Hey,

I have here a Galaxy Nexus Device, bought from ebay.

Nothing will really work right now. I try to flash the original google factory image.

Loaded everything, have fastboot access.

Followed the steps to flash the files over fastboot.

On Step: fastboot -w update factory-image-name nothing happens

The device says "flash:system" and the promt says writing "system" - but thats for about 20 Minutes. Tried these a lots of times.

Downloaded the toolkit here on xda. Flashed the stock-recovery. Tried that again. Nothing happens.

I'm don't know, what I'm doing wrong.

Something is wrong with the device.

There is a rom on the device. Everytime I safe an e.g. image or data on the sd and restart the device, the file is lost. I can't even restore factory setting via rom. The device boot and then appears a android man with an red triangle. After 2 minutes the device restart itself and nothing happens. Same rom as before.

The other thing thats strange. Tried to flash the new JB google factory reset. In the steps, where i should update and flash a new bootloader - the one with the C03 on the end, everything went fine. After I reboot the bootloader - the old bootloader is sill on the device - A03....

Dont know whats going on there.

Would be awesome if someone could help me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] compuzones:
I flash a lot of time on this type of device so far doesn't give a problem to me. Maybe something wrong with your device or maybe you can try to flash it via GNex toolkit and download the .tgz file from program first maybe you will have a luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hannes The Hun:
sounds a little like bad flash ROM but I'd leave that to the pros to diagnose... mabye there was a cause why somebody put it on ebay ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
Instead of flashing the factory image zip you could extract the system.img, boot.img, and data.img from that zip and flash them one by one.

Follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25477039
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shizophren:
@compuzones thanks for your answer. I tried this already. But no success.

@Hannes The Hun you could be right, but whats could cause the problem? I have no clue

@El Daddy I'll give it a try.

Edit:

So this is what happend. Would appreciate some expert thoughts on it.

I extracted the factory image and tried to flash the seperate files manually.

First the bootloader:

In fastboot mode my device shows me, that theese bootloader is on it:

PRIMALA03

So i pushed the newer one on it - fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primelc03.img

sending bootloader - OKAY

writing bootloader - OKAY

the operation seems to work. But, when I'm restart-bootloader again, I have still PRIMELA03 as my bootloader.

Ok, I thought that unimportant. So tried to go on with the system.

fastboot flash system system.img

sending system OKAY

writing system..............

So here we go. It writes the system for over 20 minutes. Don't know why it exactly happens.

This happens wether I try to flash a factory image with the toolkit here from xda, or the google way or just this way.

Whats strange too.

Wanted to flash via CMW a custom rom. Just to trie it, if this woul work.

I flash CWM via the toolkit. The operation went fine. When I trie to boot in recovery, I get still the little Android with the red triangle and nothing happens.

Althouh the rom, that I put on the sd is gone after restart! Nothing there. Everythings wipe the whole time I start the device.

Edit2: After 25 Minutes it says system write ok. Here what i did:

But still the old rom on my device ^^ can't figure out whats all about. The device saves absolutely nothing.

Is there a possibility to check the file system or sdcard for errors or something?

Even factory reset over the android option doesn't work. It reboots and then appears the Android with the red triangle again. After some time, the rom boots again^^

1.Buy or use XTC Clip for unlock.

2.Talk with your network provider.

3.Go to a GSM service and resolve the problem.(i think you will lost the warranty,but totally)
[HTC Wildfire S] darktyroll:
First solution is hard, since i dont have xtc clip.

Second one is hard too, i`m in other country right now and phone is locked in orange spain.

Third, here in my city nobody can unlock this phone, i need to send in other city to solv it :(

I think i need some valid sites who unlock sim network online via IMEI. Any ideas?
[HTC Wildfire S] edu_stoicescu:
Far as i know,wildfire s can not be unlocked online via IMEI.(This information is from an guy who work at a GSM service,but this information is not verry reliable)
[HTC Wildfire S] darktyroll:
I allready unlocked via IMEI last night. I`am so happy :)
[HTC Wildfire S] edu_stoicescu:
Wow,nice ! Where(in what country/city) and at what price ?
[HTC Wildfire S] darktyroll:
Was online via IMEI on this site theunlockingcompany dot com

First time i read about them, i was afraid about scam but i risk and now my wife is very happy with her unlocked wirdfire s :)

Price was 11.99 USD and i received e-mail after 40 mins, they say 15-30 mins but is not a very big difference, is really fast and the price was very very good for me.

You sent a payment of $11.99 USD to The Unlocking Company

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prospect565:
okay i want all the experienced people on this forum to help me with this thing and i hope a lot of people would get help with this post

i am using HTC DESIRE HD on it's stock firmware that is 2.3.5 and htc sense 3.0, to start flashing a custom rom (cyanogen 7.2 as an example) i have to follow the following steps (PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG)

1) i have to root my device using the AAHK (link: http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=74)

2) then to back up my contacts i have to use SMSbackup (which is available on the android market), have a backup on the sdcard and copy it to ur device

3) now i have to download the custom rom (cyanogen 7.2) (link: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=ace)

4) now i have rooted my device and i will copy this rom in .zip format into my sdcard and go into the recovery mode by turning off the phone and then holding power and volume down button

5) i have to backup my existing rom by running a nandroid backup in the backup/restore (it's visible in the recovery mode)

6) once the back up is done i'll have to formate my sdcard and format the cache

7) then i have to select the "flash .zip file from sdcard" and i am done

please tell me if this process is alright or is there anything that i am missing

secondly is there any way through which i can save my apps?

last but not the least, if i wanna flash this kernal (http://blackice.omca.co.uk/download/...7-2WCR-TUN.zip) what do i have to do?

POINT ADDED: IF U ARE USING ANDROID 2.3.5 AND SENSE 3.0 THEN U HAVE TO DOWNGRADE TO THE PRIOR VERSION OF SENSE I.E 2.1, HOW DO I DOWNGRADE USING THE AAHK kit? PLEASE HIGHLIGHT THIS
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muikkuman:
The steps are correct. Except at step 6 you wipe all partions except SD card (called superwipe).

And your appdata will be automatically restored whenever you reinstall a app if you got your phone synced to your Google account.

And you flash the kernel as you flash a Rom but you only wipe dalvik and cache.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prospect565:
What do i select in the recovery mode for step 6? And i have a spare 2gb sdcard can i use that for flashing the rom? This would help me save my songs and all

How do i confirm if i am synced with my google account?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muikkuman:
Which recovery do you use? And superwipe doesn't wipe ad card.

I'm not sure but try to sync all. Otherwise you could try titanium backup. Never used it but I have heard its good for saving appdata.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prospect565:
I havent installed a custom rom before this is the first time for me so i need help concerning all these things
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muikkuman:
First of all you need to root before you can change the recovery. Download AAHK and read the effen manual.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalanik:
Titanium backup works great. It restores all non system apps and data, everything works great except (in my case Viber, it crashes and I have to re activate account after each flash).

I'd also have a question on flashing kernels. I have flashed 5-6 different ROMs but never a kernel (It is possible that these ROMS had other kernels but I'm not sure):

1) do I flash kernel BEFORE or PRIOR to new ROM? (or it doesn't matter)

2) if iI fo superwipe script from android revolution, can I then flash ROM and KERNEL one after another? (no need to wipe dalvik again)

D.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyInTheCorner:
1.You can flash a new kernel whenever you want ;)

2. I believe so :P

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpiritStealer:
just a small note which is written on the AAHK manual and Thread but to make sure u notice it is that don't downgrade tooooooo much "I.E 2.1"

if u want to downgrade so u can root... u either let the AAHK do the downgrade for u or u do it your self either ways u musn't get lower than 2.3.3 so u wont get in kernal problems "which i once got, and god it was BAD".

good luck
