[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] southern123:
Hey there,

Sorry if I'm asking pain in the ass questions, heh, I'm completely new to flashing roms and stuff.

I bought a MT4GS on fleabay and it came with CM on it and a recovery mod called Team Win Recovery Project.

It has bootloader 1.45.0013, is **Unlocked**, and S-On.

All I want to do is just flash it to retail stock. Ultimately, I need it unlocked so I can use a Solavei SIM card, if I can flash stock signed roms and stay unlocked sweet, but if it relocks I see this forum has 3 methods for removing the MSL.

I downloaded the PG59IMG for stock sense and radio listed third in the OP, the 1.63.something one. When I popped it on the SD card, renamed it, and bootloaded, the bootloader goes through the motions, fills the blue bar as it unpacks the .zip, and then fails.

What should I be doing to achieve my desired end result?

Thanx for your help!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
You'll need to relock your bootloader to flash those signed ROMs. You can unlock again after completing your flash. Just run the "fastboot oem lock" command thru ADB and give it another try.

Before you do that though you might want to give MikTouch a try. It's a modified stock ROM that most of us like better than stock because it's smoother with MUCH better battery life.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] southern123:
Thanks for the reply, man. I ended up finding somewhere that I had to relock the bootloader to make it happen. Did that, now I'm halfway through updating my rom when I read your reply about MikTouch.

I actually really really hate HTC stock so I'm all for trying something new, my only beef is so many custom roms sacrifice functionality. Does everything in MikTouch work, or does it do something stupid like "no speakerphone" or glitchy camera?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
There are few ROMs that sacrifice anything nowadays, most are far superior in every way than stock, but yes a couple have their kinks but are still far better than stock
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Everything in Miktouch works as it should, since it is based on the last stock ROM (1.63.531.2). No funky glitches with wi-fi, bluetooth, camera, etc. Some of the newer ROMs, like the official CM10.1, are pretty stable. I've tried just about every ROM there is for this phone and some, like the CM10.1, are beautiful and run rather well, I still end up going back to the Miktouch ROM because I always discover something annoyingly wrong. Sometimes it is minor, but nevertheless important to me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] technogeek82:
has anyone gotten the stock images to flash? i have tried everyone accept for the OTA updates. Even when I try to open the zips in 7zip I get an error. Here is a pic of the error I get when I try to open in 7zip.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] OfficerJimLahey:
I thought the point was not to unzip the file, but the rename it to PG59IMG.zip, place on the root of the SDcard, and let Fastboot/Bootloader take care of everything.

First Doubleshot I had I was able to go back to stock this way (with a little bit of coaxing and getting the right version - you must have the same radio version or newer to make it work properly). Mind you, when I got my second Doubleshot, I still had that file (PG59IMG_Doubleshot_TMOUS_1.63.531.2_Radio_11.59.3504.00_11.16.3504.20_2_release_245247_signed) on my SD card, and Fastboot picked it up and called it corrupt.

What wall are you hitting in Fastboot? Judging by the file name you may be trying to downgrade which isn't possible with this phone.

Newer version available here:

I've tried all versions keeps telling me that "Main version is to old" IDK wat the hell that even means
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] OfficerJimLahey:
I wonder if it is talking about HBOOT itself, or the flashed update that is too old.

What is your HBOOT and Radio versions? Maybe any misc data on that screen? S-On or S-Off? Revolutionary or JuoPunutbear (if S-Off)?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] technogeek82:
I just wanted to let everyone know that I got it to flash finally. Thanks to the OP for the thread and links, and thanks to all you guys for your help.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Update link...

The section subtitled "HTC Signed .ZIP's for Return to Stock" has had the links updated. I'm going to go thru & reestablish the most important ones. I didn't realize so many links had died! I really apologize.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Post #1 has finally been updated & all links re-established.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] conqdog:
Links are dead, please help

Links are all bad.

I have a doubleshot with hboot 1.45.0013 and s-on. I have cwm recovery 5.0.2.7 and can install ROM zips but none will boot. I think I need s-off, but I can't run revolutionary without hboot 1.44.0007 and can't run Juopunutbear because I have no ROM that will boot at all.

It is my hope that the magic I need is in your links in post #1, but the links are all dead.

Please update the links!

I can re-host if you need it (nonsense-free and permanent), just PM me.

Thanks,

CD
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] OfficerJimLahey:
Juopunutbear requires Stock, but MikTouch will work as well. If you need a copy of MikTouch, I can provide it later today.

There is also Runrunner S-Off, if interested. I never tried it, but I hear good things (no wire trick needed). Use the Universal download.

But you don't really need S-Off, it's only useful for effortless flashing (or unless you want to change the boot logo). What you are missing when you are installing ROM's (while S-On) is that you need to flash the kernel separately through fastboot. That is:

On a computer (having adb/fastboot tools), grab the boot.img file from the flashable zip

Connect the device to the pc

Put the device into fastboot mode

Run the following command:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

If you were S-Off, CWM 9or any recovery) would be able to modify the boot image for you. Being S-On isn't a big deal, unless you like to ROM-hop.

Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] conqdog:
That would be great! Thanks!

Now I think I understand. So there are two things to flash through fastboot... the recovery, and then the kernel.

Do I have that right?

Unfortunately, the only .img files I have are for cwm recovery.

Can you help me find a good boot.img file?

Thank you again, so much! I am very grateful indeed!

CD
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] OfficerJimLahey:
There are several things you can flash through fastboot, recovery and kernel are the two most common ones.

You can find the boot.img for the ROM in the ROM's zip file. This is why if you were S-Off CWM could do this step automatically, because the file was already a part of the ROM zip.

But as I said, S-Off only simplifies flashing ROM's which is useful if you flash ROM's a lot. If just going to one ROM, S-Off is probably too much of a bother.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] conqdog:
My apologies. I figured out that you must have meant the boot.img that was inside my ROM image zip (cm-9.1.0-doubleshot.zip). So I extracted that and got ready to fastboot flash it.

However, for some reason now my HBOOT does not recognize USB.

If I start with USB plugged in, I can't even enter the bootloader with Down+Power -- and if I wait to plug in USB until after the bootloader is up, the bootloader doesn't display "HBOOT USB".

So fastboot can't even see the device!

I'm so sorry to bother you with all of this, but so appreciative of your help!

CD
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] OfficerJimLahey:
Kernel probably prevents powering on the device while plugged in/in charging mode. Don't worry, this is often typical behaviour. So with the cable unplugged, power on the device into bootloader using Pwr + Vol-Dn.

Wait for RUU to do its thing (scanning for PG59... files), and select fastboot (press Pwr button), if it is not in fastboot mode already. Plug the cable in now. It will change from "FASTBOOT" to "FASTBOOT USB" after a few seconds (assuming you have the drivers installed - if not, try these).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] conqdog:
Doh! I feel a little bit like an idiot for not realizing what the fastboot option in the bootloader actually was. Especially so, since I must have been there before! But no matter! I got that done, got the boot.img flashed, installed my ROM zip... and BOOM! I'm up. I was SO worried I had a brick on my hands. You have truly saved the day for me.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, again. For you to have gone to this trouble for me (pictures, even!) is absolutely amazing and very, very appreciated.

Now for me to see about S-Off (since I now understand what it's for!). I do think I'll be playing with a few different ROMs, so that'll be convenient. Sounds like MikTouch would be a good one to have on hand, too -- so I'd definitely still appreciate that if you get a chance.

As an aside, It's a little disappointing that the doubleshot has been "left behind" so much. Sure, it's little slow by today's marks, but it's still a great rig -- and physical keyboards have become exceedingly rare.

I'm very glad to have found someone who is still working with it. If you're in the habit of notifying people when you make progress, please do keep me in mind.

Off to play I go, then! Thanks again so much! Keep in touch!

Yeah, there is not much in the way for recent ROM's now. Just Emmanuel U's CM11, and the build of CarbonROM that I did (that is not quite ready for the limelight, unless you don't care about camcorder function), based on Emman's (and others) work.

I've seen a lot of isues with phones on t-mobile locked on EDGE speed...

I was wondering if my phone, a galaxy s international (french) was compatible with 3G or maybe H+.

I can't seems to find any good informations...

Wikipedia : Dual band CDMA2000/EV-DO Rev. A 800 and 1,900 MHz;

WiMAX 2.5 to 2.7 GHz;

802.16e 2.5G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE): 850, 900, 1,700, 1,800, 1,900, and 2,100 MHz;

3G (HSDPA 7.2 Mbit/s, HSUPA 5.76 Mbit/s): 900, 1,900, and 2,100 MHz;

but i think it include every version
[Networking] MrObvious:
Unfortunately your phone won't get 3G but you can get AT&T 3G. It's weird you have 1700 MHz 2G. I wonder if that could be unlocked for 3G? That's the only 3G frequency you are missing.
[Networking] mabovalu:
If you are asking about T-Mobile in the U.S. then perhaps...T-Mo/USA is re-farming some 1900 MHz for 3G operation in some select cities/locales. And your phone does support 900/1900/2100 MHz 3G, so in theory, and if in certain locations, then yes, you may be able T-Mo 3G via 1900 MHz.

From the press release:

As part of the company’s network modernization effort, T-Mobile also plans to launch 4G HSPA+ service in the 1900 MHz band in a large number of markets by the end of the year.

http://www.airportal.de/

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/07/tmob...omers-off-2g-network-with-upgrade-incentives/

I've heard about Los Angeles, New York City, Miami, Boston, Washington DC and there have been individual reports from many other locales.

AT&T does also have 3G on 1900 MHz in some locales: http://www.cellularmaps.com/att_850_1900.shtml

But I am not sure if they have ceded some of these to T-Mo as part of the failed merger, and/or transitioned those to 850 MHz?

Both AT&T and T-Mo do offer pre-paid SIMs and services - and there are some MVNOs like StraightTalk reselling AT&T and T-Mo network access.

To update via LG I found putting the phone in s/w update mode, then plugging it in to the computer, the most error-free way.

If everything fails look up the thread on restoring/flashing stock via nvflash. That'll work 100% unless you have a bad USB or bad drivers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonytaylor:
latest drivers from lg. good cable, tested

how would i put the phone in s/w upgrade mode before i plug it into computer. if i remove battery and hold vol up and down then connect usb it will go in s/w update mode when i start nvflash.

I curently have SD card class 4 and SD-EXT on it . All my app are on SD-EXT .

HTC wildfire installed cm-7-20120909-NIGHTLY-buzz. Will there be any difference in speed of phone and in communication with PC ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .xxx.:
Yeah.. there will be obviously. I get around 9-10mbps write speed on my class 10 card and read speed around 25-27 mbps. When compared to class 4, you will get 3-4 and 5-6 respectively. Huge difference.

Sent from Hell!!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrsoje:
My question is can HTC Wildfire really use that speed ? Or it will work as fast as with class 4 ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eventcom:
Well, as he's a Team Buzz member and you posted in the Wildfire forum he most likely took that into account when answering :rolleyes:

But you seem to look for some bullet proof answer - so: yes I can confirm that you get faster read and write speeds with a class 10 and our Wildfire can handle those speeds pretty well - please note that it's the card that makes the brake here, the internal r/w speeds are much faster ;)

--- EDIT --- but you shouldn't expect too much from a faster card. My observation is that the class 10 card made my Willly much more stable. The speed improvement in my opinion isn't as much remarkable as many other tweaks (like custom mtd partitions, disable services, prevent certain processes from starting at boot, setting better minfree values etc.)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .xxx.:
Thanks for the confirmation. You made my job easier. @eventcom.

@op: it was obvious man. I had been using class 10 for some time now and I can see considerable changes which I just love it. Another thing, if it wasn't compatible, I would have straight away said that :)

Sent from Hell!!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrsoje:
Thank you both for clearing that

I replaced my class 4 with class 10 SD card

Boot time is almost the same , applications start much faster and communication with PC is almost the same ,maybe little faster .

Related: I would've loved to flash straight to Valhalla Black but even though I found a post where VB built an experimental One Click for that, I couldn't actually find a JAR anywhere. Am I missing something here too? Apparently FB isn't accepting PMs....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I'm not sure why you're looking for one-click installers for everything. The typical way to install is using a zip in recovery. You should be able to find a good selection of ROMs and kernels that you can flash from the recovery that it sounds like you already have installed.

The one-click installers are generally when you have things so hozed up you need to get back to a relatively clean, know state. They generally aren't for getting a fully functional phone. Your WiFi problem is likely the driver that matches your kernel not being installed.

FB is around from time to time.

In general, I wouldn't hold your breath on anyone updating software from a couple years ago. Older projects eventually get archived or deleted as each ROM build you are working on can take 50 GB or more.

Posted from whatever phone booted today
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] JaimeZX:
Phone was super hosed. Would not restore a Nandroid backup.

A VB one-click would have been fastest.

Would gladly try a newer ROM but my wife and I use wifi-calling every day - until and unless somebody with a newer ROM figures that out, we're on GB.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Gingerbread is cool, especially if you need the proprietary WiFi calling feature. Several of us have poked at those bits and they aren't very happy with anything but the ROM they were built for.

You'll typically have problems if you flash a kernel through download mode "over" an existing ROM. Download mode is partition-at-a-time so it can't, for example, update kernel modules on that are on the same partition as the rest of the ROM.

Lots to pick from once you have custom recovery going.
