[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] joebuttons1:
by the way there is an extremely easier way to get root access while staying on stock rom its called "Unlockroot" its an app for windows that roots at the click of a button and you keep 4g as long as you have hisuite 1.8 installed "hard to find btw, got it from a Chinese site" anyways i rooted this way and somehow or another i bricked my springboard like the the most redundant way ever, i found a beats audio driver app in the android market. it required root access, it said install successful my tablet rebooted and the t mobile splash screen pops up then the tablet shuts off, tried going into recovery mode but just says FAIL when it boots into recovery. sooooo honestly wtf do i do now =( i cant find a decent link to the t mobile stock rom to try and use fast boot to fix this. DO NOT WANT HUAWEI ROMS.

Well I just checked the Sprint website and they took it down. I don't know about you, but I'm quite angry. This phone as "going to be pretty good" and much better than my intercept. Yet it's only been a year and they discontinue it after Ice Cream Sandwich? Really Sprint? First you take long with the update and now this? I'm gonna call tomorrow and enquire about this.

Any thoughts?
[HTC EVO 3D] austin420:
Be happy you got an ics release before they discontinued it.
[HTC EVO 3D] TechnoHacker:
Well, our ICS was buggy-ish, and it was really delayed.

I had SOS-M working better.

It's on the EVO line and they just discontinue it? :(

[HTC EVO 3D] AlexxSeven:
they discontinued it (and will do so for all their other wimax phones) because they still plan to kill out 4G WiMAX from their network, im not at all shocked this happened because i already knew it was coming, the E3D wasn't made for LTE and can't be through any software changes, now if there was a high demand for a 3D phone i wouldn't be surprised if a more amped up LTE variant came out. as i said they don't have long term plans for WiMAX anymore, and want to keep people new people and people with upgrades from buying a phone that has technology that will not be supported soon. :) but be happy we made it almost a year and by the time our phones "lifespan" is up (2 years good enough) we would have been given the chance to use whatever 4G we can x)

Apps usually report not supported for a reason. Unless you know for a fact it's supported. A "not supported" response usually happens when you change ROM. If you had the game on a different ROM it should be fine.

He means: Copy it to the SD card (not in any subdirectory/subfolder). Name it update.zip. I assume then you would "apply update" from CWM although I have not done it that way before.

If you're talking about the ROM from this thread did you catch that the developer specifies "4EXT Touch Recovery by madmaxx82" under the list of requirements? I can't think of how that might make a difference but he does specify it.

I suspect either it is either:

1. not where you think it is; or

2. it didn't copy correctly (if so, likely unmounted while still writing that 300MB+ file); or

3. you're in the wrong menu in CWM.

You are trying from "install zip from sdcard" then "choose zip from sdcard", yes?

you are correct i am going to "install zip from sdcard"... etc

can you boot into the bootloader to get into the recovery? i have flashed all the kernels here on top of each other without any issues....

p.s. incase you forgot, i believe it is hold volume down + power to get into the bootloader
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
When you install a kernel it replaces the one that was there.

That did not brick your device.

If you can get to recovery do a full wipe and flash a ROM

Try running the Lazypanda unbricker, or the other Evo LTE unbricking tool. It might just be that it accidentally went into QHUSB mode even though nothing was wrong.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Did you check MD5 hash before flashing it? You should ALWAYS do this, I know it wont help now, but for the future. That ensures that the file is identical to what was uploaded. Also (and I know you're probably aware of this, but in case anyone else is reading) only flash files that are specific to our device. Another kernel for another device will most definitely brick you.

I would try to see if the HTC unbrick project helps you, otherwise if you have sprint insurance (not the fancy 11 dollar one) that covers software issues (4 dollars a month) will cover this since it is a software problem.

TWRP bootloop

I had viper rom on my phone and the camer'a and wifi didn't work. I tried to unzip some kernels to make them work and the one for the wifi unzipped just fine from twrp and made the phone work just fine. The kernel for the camera however, i had to download from flashimage .gui. Now when the phone boots it just goes to the pre TWRP load sceen with the HTC logo and the htc developer disclaimer, then it just reboots and does the same thing. I can still get to recovery if i boot to it using the power and volume keys. Does anybody have a way to remedy my sitiuation?

Need more info. Are you son or soff. Is viper based on the 1.22 base or 2.13?

The flashgui probably didn't load the "camera" kernel, try just flashing the "wifi" kernel again. Now when u reboot in twrp if it tells u u have no operating system then u need to reflash ur rom (no need to wipe data)

Alternative method just flash ur rom on top of ur current setup

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
Two quick questions:

1. Does USB mass storage work? (do your sdcard and emmc get recognized as drive letters when it boots) - if it doesn't there MAY be a problem but question 2's suggestion may fix it.

2. Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling the adb drivers?

This is just off the top of my head. Oh, now I see that fastboot works so basic USB communication works so it may be a driver issue.

Oh, since fastboot works you should be able to flash CWM recovery and a superuser zip to root unless it says not allowed. But if you can flash and boot recovery at that point no point on rooting, just flash a rooted ROM like jellybean beta3.

What hboot version are you on? Have you tried an ruu thru hboot?

I would try an ruu thru hboot first. http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip

If that dosent let you boot, use the htcdev site to unlock your bootloader. And then fastboot flash cwm recovery, and then superuser thru cwm. Then you will be rooted and can try to wipe everything and flash a rom.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meadowsjared:
1st of all, thanks for getting back to me so quickly Tiny, you're amazing, and I appreciate all the work you've done with the Dinc, thanks for being so active!

1. No, mass storage doesn't work (I assume you mean plugging in the phone and having it mount the SD card as a drive on the computer)

However, I am able to now use both my SD card from within Gingerbread, and the recovery, but only after doing the "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" trick

2. I haven't tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ADB drivers, but only because.... I'm a developer, and sometimes I develop on my home computer, and sometimes I develop at work, and they both exhibit the same behavior, so I don't think it can be that both computers, just happened to get messed up at the exact same time, right when my phone got hosed? :P

Also, I've used ADB plenty in the past, on both computers, so I'm certain they're set up right, just between having two computers to work with, AND the extensive use I've made of ADB in the past (I'm the office Root-er, I've rooted most of my co-worker's phone for them, so I've had quite a bit of experience (and should have known better than to turn off my phone when I did which got me in this pickle :P))

Just to be clear though, basic USB communication works, but only in HBOOT, NOT from Gingerbread, actually, having the phone plugged into USB (whether or not USB debugging is turned on on the phone), WILL lock up my computer until I unplug it, and as soon as I unplug, my computer snaps back to normal :P So I think somehow something in the phone got hosed so the ADB is broken, however, I can't fix it because I can't get my root back because I'm stuck in the horrible stock gingerbread (no offense to anyone that likes it :P)

Also, yes, I've tried a ton of times to flash a superuser zip to root and it says it's not allowed/bad signature or whatever, because it's still S-ON :(
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meadowsjared:
@cmlusco

I didn't even know you could use RUU's through hboot, I'll try that, as well as using the HTC unlocker RUU with hboot.

I'd already tried those things normally, but with by USB being hosed, it didn't help much. :-\

I'll post back when I've given them a try :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meadowsjared:
I'm on HBoot 0.92.0000

and it seems to only allow me to flash newer, or the same version as what I've got (because I've tried downgrading)

I just tried the RUU from HTC to root my phone.

I ran the RUU, put the phone in hboot, and it sat and said "verifying phone information" or something like that and said "error 170, usb connection error"

I also put the phone in "fastboot" and tried again, it didn't seem to make a difference.

Now regarding flashing an RUU through hboot, how would I go about doing that? I'm assuming you're talking about throwing the PB31IMG.zip on my SD and booting into Hboot. Now that DOES work however, I'm still S-ON, so unless it's a factory image, it ain't gonna like it :(

That is, unless there's some kind of fastboot voodoo that can be done to get something on there to exploit it and get my back my root I once had and loved! :P
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
That PB31IMG.zip i posted is 4.08.605.15, the latest android version for our phone. It is official and signed by htc, so it should flash even if your s-on. Just place it on your sd in no folders and hboot should find it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meadowsjared:
Yes, you're right, I was able to flash that image using hboot, but sadly... the adb is STILL broken and doing all the same things it was before (it doesn't work, and when I plug it into my computer, it freaks out my computer and the computer freezes until I unplug the phone, then everything is fine again)

It seems that all these images write everything to the phone... BUT what I need. I've found some things that "should" fix my problem, but they are all unsigned, and therefore they require root. Is there a chance that now with this newest RUU you gave me "z4root" will work cmlusco? (the reason I ask is, I'm hoping that an app that roots the phone without the computer will work, since every time I plug into a computer, it doesn't work, and just freaks out the computer)

Also, regarding the official HTC way to root, I tried running their "PB3120000_Incredible_C_hboot_1.02.0000_4.08.605.2.exe" file, however, that didn't work in the slightest (because it uses adb commands to talk to the phone). Is it possible that there's a way to extract the PB31IMG.zip file from that exe file and therefore I would be able to flash that using hboot, and the phone would like it because it's signed by HTC (I'm assuming)?

By the way, ever since I flashed that newer PB31IMG.zip ROM, now when I go into hboot, at the top it says "*** LOCKED ***", and it never said that before, I don't know if that matters at all? :-\

Also, if it helps any, here's what the update looked like....

*** LOCKED ***

Then, after running the update, it asked me if I wanted to reboot, it showed the picture of the phone with the arrows in a circle around it, then when it wen to reboot, it did the usual (for me lately), and gave me the 5-vibrates of death and a black screen, the only way to get out of it is to do a battery pull. Then, after doing that, if I just plug in the cable, I can boot into the new rom just fine, but if the cable isn't plugged in, I just get the 5 vibrates of death, like this guy....

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meadowsjared:
@tiny4579

To be more clear, the basic USB communication doesn't work, the only way I can get anything that uses USB to work, is by booting into fastboot, and I have been able to do fastboot commands (like "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"). So it seems that fastboot's USB works just fine (I've tested this on multiple computers), but anything after that, like trying to use the USB from the operating system, is totally broken. So I'm guessing that internally, the phone's drivers for USB are separate for hboot, and therefore still work, however, the phone's USB drivers for Gingerbread, are completely broken, even though I've been able to flash 2 different versions of signed gingerbread from HTC, they still don't seem to fix my USB problem even though it's writing the entire system all over again. Is it possible that there's a signed HTC zip that will fix my USB, that would fix me... the only question is.... does a signed HTC zip exist that will fix my USB??? :-\
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meadowsjared:
Ok, I've got great news, I was able to finally unlock my bootloader! so now when I go into HBOOT, it says at the top "UNLOCKED", however, it still says S-ON, and I still don't have root, but I think we're getting there! :D

So now that my bootloader is unlocked, I'm assuming I should be able to either load a custom recovery (like clockworkmod), however, I still can't use ADB to do anything so things like unrevoked wont work for me sadly :(

Do you guys have any advice on what I can now do that my bootloader is unlocked? (I'm a little unclear about what the whole bootloader thing does for me). I think I understand rooting, at least enough, and I thought I understood the bootloader, and the unlocking. But now that my bootloader is unlocked, it still wont let me load anything like CM7.1, or clockworkmod (I tried both of those by going into recovery and trying to flash the update.zip).

Either way, I'm very encouraged by the fact that my bootloader is unlocked, I'm assuming it should help me to acheive my goal of rooting and eventually gettting Albioman's Jellybean on there? :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Now you need to fastboot flash cwm. Download this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Guide_Root_New_Hboot/recovery.img, and place it on your pc in the same folder as the fastboot.exe file.

Open a cmd prompt on your pc to where fastboot.exe and recovery.img are. Type the folowing:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

If you get no errors, go to the maim hboot menu and select recovery. You should now be in cwm recovery.

Download superuser http://dinc.does-it.net/Superuser/SuperUser_3.0.7.zip, and place it on your sdcard by going to mounts and storrage and selecting mount usb storrage. If it freezes up the phone or the pc, you will need to take the sd out and use a card reader to put it on the sd with a pc.

Then flash it thru recovery like you would a rom. Now you will be rooted. Then flash a rom of your choosing and hope it boots.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
Might as well load the ROM when you load superuser. But flashing superuser is silly if you're going to flash a ROM with root right after it but it's probably still a good zip to keep on your sdcard.

Yeah i guess it is pointless to flash su, then wipe it, then flash a rooted rom.
