First mistake. Now you are unable to root it.

You can check if your tablet has open bootloader.

In this case you would be able to use nvflash.

No

Yes, it is available now but you need root.

Hey guys, I'm not new to Android but I recently got an evo 3d for cheap. Apparently it was unlocked with htcdev. Its for sprint cdma. Anyways, I was trying to install ICS and for some stupid reason I wiped everything then locked the bootloader. I know even I'm ashamed of myself lol! Any way to unlock HBoot 1.50 with fast boot or at least install a ROM? Any help would be appreciated!

I only have access to the locked bootloader and fast boot btw.

Edit: Flashing an old gingerbread stock ruu via fastboot solved my problem :D
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
You should never able to unlock it again with HTC dev and then do the wire trick to get s-off.

I did but htcdev doesn't recognize it for some reason. Their instructions required a booted ROM right? I'll try again lol Thanks for the response!

What's up all? Just rooted and took s off. Back to the ICS using the last ota with recovery installed.

I want to know if I can just download a rom, unzip it, and install certain apks from it.

I figure I'd have to copy whatever it is I want to install to the system/app folder to replace what it is I want to install, then run the apk by normal means, but I'm not certain of the exact steps. Can someone help me to just make sure I'm doing it right? I don't really want to spend tons of time backing up and restoring my phone if I can help it.

Thanks in advance. :thumbup:

Sent from my HTC 3VO.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Usually:

1. Copy the apk to system/apps using a root explorer.

2. Change permissions to rw-r--r--.

3. Reboot

Unfortunately, some system apps have libraries. If so, they go in system/libs i believe.

i tried to root my xperia s, bootloader is unlocked, and i was flashing in an .img file but now that i turned it on after that, it loads sony, then dies then does this again and i cant turn it on or off its stuck in this loop.

what can i do? thanks for the help
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingAmir:
Quick answer

Before a more experienced member rightfully closes this thread I will try to help you.

Download flashtool. A simple google search will sort that out.

Install it. The program will have a picture of a lightning bolt as its logo.

Find the stock firmware for your device. Search for that in google.

After downloading the firmware you should see it has a .ftf at the end.

Go into computer then flashtool then firmware. then drag and drop the .ftf into that folder.

Close the folder.

connect your arc.

Open the flashtool program.

Click the bolt icon in the top left.

select the name of the firmware you downloaded in the left panel. it will highlight blue.

Click ok (bottom right).

A box will appear telling you to put your device into flash mode. Follow the instructions it gives.

Once this is done the box will dissapear and firmware will flash.

Finally device will reboot and phone will be back to normal.

I do not own an xperia s. But I assume this should work.

Please thank me using the button for my efforts
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biggysten:
i did that followed the instructions got to flash mode but when i did so it didnt go into flash mode, or fast boot mode now or charge or anything :/ its not working at all
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingAmir:
Ok lets go back to basics. Try PC companion. Sony make the software. All you have to do is download it. install it. And then try resetting it using that. Because I do not have an xperia s I am not gonna be very good with helping but I will try my best.

where does bootstrap.apk go

finally managed to root the 5.7

everytime I power on and hold M i got to the selection screen.

but every selection just powers on the phone normally.

that means i need bootstrap right? I have it from 5.6 but i dont remember where it goes because my old droid screen took a dump

I dont even know how I managed to make a backup on my old phone with no vision, but i did.

PLEASE HELP

okay so I got bootstrap working and I restored my backup from 5.6

now my phone isnt turning on. its stuck on the red eye.

anyone know what I can do?

NEVER MIND IT JUST TOOK AWHILE.... thanks anyways
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
Oh God. This sounds ugly... You are selecting BP Tools from the M+Power menu, right? Secondly, it doesn't matter where you put the APK on the phone, what matters is installing the APK and installing the recovery. Finally, what kind of 5.6 backup did you restore? Apps from Titanium Backup, My BackUpPro, etc. or a nandroid backup in recovery?

Also, can we move this to general? TYIA.
[Motorola Droid 3] kayelemenohpee:
Not sure how to move this thread to a different area...

I restored a nandroid backup in recovery

is it suppose to be missing certain files because I had to drag a bunch of store from my old droid to my comp and then to my new one

(like photos, the roms folder for my emulater, bloat freezing folder for script manager.)

Now my gallery dosnt work. pictures wont show when i go to gallery --> my library

but i can see them in astro in the DCIM folder.

should the NANDroid have backed all that up and restored it???
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
It does not back up anything on your SD card, like photos, music etc.
[Motorola Droid 3] kayelemenohpee:
That stuff wasnt on my SD card. it was all on the phone.

could my phone have not finished backing up and made the backup file anyway? my old phone screen when out and I made the backup in recovery without being able to see it.

Is there anyway to fix my gallery so I can access my pictures again?
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
They may not have been on your EXTERNAL SD card, but they were on some form of storage, probably the internal sd card.

Also, you should never have restored a 5.6 nandroid over a 5.7 system. It would have reverted your /system partition and can cause issues with 5.6 and 5.7 components.
[Motorola Droid 3] kayelemenohpee:
OHHH I gotcha INTERNAL SD card still dosnt get backed up... "i learned something new" =)

but by issues of components you mean.... my PHOTO GALLERY?!?!?!

What can I do to fix this problem.??? unroot and let the phone re update the latest 5.7 and then reROOT???
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Ya neither sd gets backed up. It would cause some storage issues if you had mostly full storage, you would not have room for the backup.

As for your other question someone else may know. The 860 only ever had 1 update so I've never had to deal with different system versions

I doubt the stores can handle upgrading with SERO. I bit the bullet and upgraded directly w/ Sprint. They are able to get you to keep SERO, as long as you are on SERO Premium 500.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LakersEB:
Not sure what your question is, are they telling you that you need to switch off your SERO plan? If so, that is false, I have SERO and am using the S3. I ordered mine through telesales (with all discounts) and activated it no problem on SERO Premium.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] noreboy:
Interesting! Which discounts are you referring to? I'm curious what you got the phone for through telesales, and if you had to pay the activation fee.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Teczeus:
I duo not have SERO but... when i went to upgrade they told me my plan had to be updated as I wasn't on a qualifying plan..although I had everything data with chase discount... they had to call sprint and provide dealer code to process upgrade to retaIn discount..although I did get a text stating they needed proof out employment within 24 hrs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] KittyTeapots:
Hello. I'm actually a Sprint employee and u can in fact upgrade your phone in any corporate store. U will in fact have to change your plan because they do not give us access to those plans in store but can simply call in to care to have your SERO premium plan restored. Or going through telesales directly would in fact eliminate a need to do this although if you are not already on a premium plan you will have to make that change. But a great discount over the regular plans. Hope this helps!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] diznikkabcb:
You have to call *2 and tell them you want to upgrade.. anything to do with employee line you have to call a certain department. I just added a line and they took my order for the gs3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] poit:
Don't call *2, they won't know what SERO is. Call 888-876-8381, thats the SERO accounts number. You can call them and tell them you are at Best Buy and want to purchase a phone to add yo your SERO account. They should be able to do it, Assuming you are on a SERO Premium account.

Even at the Sprint Corporate store I had to call that number, they didn't have the secret codes to handle my account.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nextohel:
Corporate Store

I went into my local Corporate Store and walked out with my shiny, new SIII. The salesman had the codes to keep my SERO500 plan intact. No problems. And since I have the SERO plan, I paid NO activation fee. :cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DarkManX4lf:
I went to Walmart and while there I spoke to a sero customer service and they basically said to upgrade with Walmart and Walmart will change my plan over to a normal plan. I would have to then call sero customer care and they would switch it back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xTmDarren:
Most sprint stores can't even touch the Sero plan. ( I have it as well ) You would either have to do the upgrade online or get lucky and find a store to do it and allow you to attach the phone to the plan over the phone.. The big problem is that they will have to replace the wimax code with the new LTE code.. I've upgraded two of the Sero plans in my house.. yes it can be done. Most at sprint just doesn't know how.. goodluck :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tft:
it's better to have upgrade to sero premium and then going to a corporate store and having them upgrade the phone. that's what i did.. the sales rep at the store couldn't directly upgrade the phone using the computer but she called sero dept and gave them the phone serial numbers and within 10 minutes i was out of the store with my S3.

to upgrade to sero premium i emailed everythingreferral (At) sprint.com with my account info and told them i wanted to upgrade my sero to sero premium and they knew exactly what to do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thatisandwas:
OK so heres the deal with the SERO plans, and why you can/can't upgrade in stores/3rd partys.

Sprint is very strict about not letting employees access other employees accounts. Its considered a big no no. Its not about having codes or what not...The fact is when an employee tries to open up another employee account (or one linked to an employee account, eg SERO) it simply tells them that ONLY employee accounts cant handle this type of account. Dialing a specific number is not necessary either, as previously stated. Dialing *2 from a SERO or any employee account will actually take you directly to employee accounts as the phone number is setup to do just that. If it doesn't take you to employee accounts for whatever reason and you get to a normal customer care rep, they will simply tell you they cannot access the account as it is an employee account and provide you the number. As far as upgrade? I as an employee cannot upgrade in ANY store corporate or not. May be different with SERO plans (obviously it is, because the previous posters already stated they were able to). I was highly disappointed when i went in to my local corp store Friday and couldn't walk out with a new S3. However, its Monday now, and its out for delivery :) (sitting patiently by door)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] poit:
Seems like it is different for SERO.

I was able to walk out of a corporate store with a new S3, but only by calling the SERO number directly as I stated earlier. I was told at the store that they don't have the codes to upgrade an LTE device on SERO, hence they had me call the Sprint SERO direct number 888-876-8381. The store rep signed me up for a new account, and the person on the phone transfered it back to my old SERO account while I was still at the store. It's a roundabout way to do it but I stayed on the SERO plan and didn't have to pay the upgrade fee either.

Flashing a ROM doesn't delete data. What does is clearing data or a factory reset. Some Roms you have to. But in the case of Paranoid Android (my favorite, great hybrid tabui switcher and based on cm10) you don't have to.

I'm just so excited. 2 day shipping can be weird... when should I expect it?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
Normally 2 business days when it ships. Ordering != Shipping. You can order it say on Monday and it might not ship until Wed, which would normally get it to you by Friday. (Thur and Friday are the 2 days). The day it ships doesn't count as one of the 2 days.

If you are outside the country, like in Canada, there can be other delays.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buffnutz1:
I believe two day shipping means it's 2 days from when it's sent. Not two days from when you ordered. For instance I also did two day shipping. I ordered Tue but it shipped Wed and it's not arriving until Friday. So technically it's 3 days.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dannydeez:
I ordered mine on wednesday afternoon. According to the tracking on UPS it is out for delivery so I should receive it sometime today(friday).

Also, you should have received an email from google saying that your nexus has shipped by now. In that email is a UPS tracking number. If you click it, it will tell you when the delivery date is.
