First Welcome,

And I understand your question, but there really is no best ROM for your device or any other device it all comes down to the user. I suggest you do some homework, in reading thru you device forums and then read again. Not saying your not capable of understanding just reading and doing the homework before hand, will help you from bricking your device.

It is all up to you on what you chose for your device. My thought is read this guide before you start on your Flash, Thank You and thread closed.

hello everyone. i was on mobilesyrup, and they have news of a wind and videotron (canadain providers) selling the 4X HD in the fall. I currently own a g2x, and am looking at this phone for an upgrade. how has peoples experiences been with this phone?

[HTC Incredible S] Splintre:
Hi,

To start off with, I have no prior experience with rooting or the likes. Yesterday I decided to root my phone in order to use programs requiring SU access, which went fine. Along the way I decided that I'd also like to install a new ROM, and thus embarked on the journey from HBOOT2.02.0002 S-ON to S-OFF.

I've been following this guide to downgrade my phone in order to S-OFF it. After everything going smoothly apart from slow downloads, I am now attempting to downgrade using the following RUU provided in the thread:

RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1_Radio_20 .2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M_release_199308_signed.exe

Unfortunately for me, the installer stops with ERROR155. I have tried Googling around and have found that the RUU should be matched with the CID (HTC_Y13) of my phone, though I have come up short when trying to find an actual match and a link. So my question is, which RUU should I use to downgrade and where can I find it?

My phone is bought in Denmark if that's of importance.

Thank you so much in advance - this board has already been an amazing ressource to me!
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
That RUU will work for you if you answered YES to create a goldcard.

The error 155 means that the bootloader did not get RELOCKED by the script. You should post the results of your command window when you ran the script so that we can assist you better.
[HTC Incredible S] Splintre:
Thank you very much for the fast reply!

Having read on a bit, I have discovered Nonverbose's Downgrade kit which I have not been running before. I'm guessing that the creation of goldcard happens through running that script?

As I am having a bit fun with the tinkering, I've tried to do things as step-by-step as possible to understand the process. What does a goldcard do exactly, and why does it help the RUU run? Does it restore my CID to a manufacturer default or something?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
The goldcard allows the bootloader to bypass the CID check when flashing the RUU. Therefore you can flash a RUU from a different region or carrier. It does not alter your CID in any way.
[HTC Incredible S] Splintre:
Having now been through the Downgrade Kit, here is the resulting CMD prompt:

imgur. com/dIKhd (sorry for breaking up the link, I am not allowed to post outside links yet)

It doesn't look right, does it? What am I doing wrong?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
The error 'more than one device or emulator' is definitely not good. Also you took a screen shot instead of cutting and pasting the contents of the command window, so you did not capture or show the whole script execution.

Make sure you don't have the HTC Sync application running in the system tray or in the background. That would definitely interfer with the script.
[HTC Incredible S] Splintre:
Ok - I tried running it again. I don't have the HTC Sync application installed just the drivers as suggested here.

Incredible S Main version downgrade toolkit v3.4.1 by Nonverbose

This script will:
------------------------------------------------------------------

(2) Apply a temp root using the tacoroot exploit**
(3) Downgrade your phones version-main using misc_version

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Ok so

Rooted

S-off

hboot 1.12.2222

was running Mean-rom 4.4

Then tried to install the new apk fix for ringtones

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1900629

Phone rebooted then then continues to be stuck in boot loop.

What I have tried:

Factory reset in bootloader

clear storage in bootloader

reinstall TWRP to get in recovery as if I choose recover in bootloader it just boot loops.

Tried to install the RUU but it can not connect during boot loops and errors out.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Try fastboot wipe recovery then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, if recovery loops back to bootloader then it's corrupt. Make sure you flash the latest twrp
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
All I see in fastboot option on bootloader is

bootloader

reboot

reboot bootloader

powerdown

am I missing something?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Those are fastboot commands, you use the terminal

fastboot wipe recovery

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

You should be able to boot into recovery afterwards
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
What terminal? I'm a bit lost here
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Do you have adb tools or Android SDK?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
C:\android-sdk-windows
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Open cmd prompt by opening SDK folder and then hold shift and right click, it will say open cmd prompt or something similar I don't recall if adb is in separate folder but I don't think so. From there you can plug in the phone in fastboot and type fastboot devices, it will tell you if you are connected or not. Download twrp and place it in the same folder. Then you can use the commands I listed earlier
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Get an error see attached
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Now that I am in fasboot usb on the bootloader the RUU can connect to phone via USB.

If I just flashed that and started all over would that work and do I need to unroot and relock before doing the RUU?

Still not having any luck on terminal so far.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Sorry I was busy arguing with gf, it seems you aren't where you need to be if fastboot isn't recognized, I haven't had access to my own pc in quite a while so I'm having trouble remembering if there is another directory
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
got fastboot working but get this with your first command
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
That's because I haven't used wipe in fastboot in quite a while, I'm sure I'm just confused on wipe and erase but you shouldn't need it, the first command should be fastboot erase recovery but like I said you shouldn't really have to, it's just like formatting before flashing the recovery, just fastboot flash recovery openrecovery.img or what ever the name is for the twrp file
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] copc:
Ran

We tried flashing TWRP and original recovery via ADB

We tried running RUU

I'm still stuck in a boot loop.... :confused:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] precplac1:
I am having a similar problem stuck in bootloader. I relocked to go to the new firmware and now am stuck in the bootloader. I can access adb but can't access recovery. I am now relocked. Can I unlock again with a fastboot command?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
If you unlocked manually, HTC sends the unlock code code just use fastboot to flash, if you used regawmod, just run it again. I don't know if regawmod will recognize the phone in boot loader though
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] precplac1:
Thanks. I just did fastboot oem lock

Do I call Sprint or HTC for the code?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
You register with htc Dev and follow the instructions, they email unlock_code.bin

When you select the phone from the menu, choose other

So I've tried installing the JRO030 update on my Gnex twice now. Both times ended with it being stuck at the boot logo AFTER a complete shut down. I followed the instructions to a t. Is there anything else I could do to fix it? I'm no noob here, but I'm lost at this point.

vzw. https://www.xda-developers.com/android/verizon-finally-rolls-out-jelly-bean-jro03o-to-galaxy-nexus/

op, get in recovery, wipe data/factory reset, reflash your rom.

if you can't, then try to get in bootloader/fastboot mode, and from there to recovery. doesnt work? reflash recovery.

still doesnt work? start fresh.

oh, wait a sec, you trying to OTA? what build are you currently on?

sent from my i9250
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Winesnob:
Give it time. The restart is taking longer with the JB boot loader on the GNex. Its verifying file systems. It may take several minutes, and then will boot into the OS with the X boot animation. Been discussed in several threads.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jttate04:
Have you tried doing a factory reset? Attempt a factory reset and if it gets stuck on the Google boot logo, your phone is missing its recovery image, so you will need to manually flash Jelly Bean with the factory images from Google. Were you able to install the 4.0.4 update when it first came out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jacobydarkon:
Verizon Galaxy Nexus.

I'm on imm76k.

I did not know it took so long. Can you give me a link to one of the threads?

I tried a factory reset.

Yes, I did. It updated just fine.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Is it posible to chage default phone? i just onstall ex dialer but still get the default dialer
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Really... no one knows
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
When you get to calling somebody, it doesn't give you an option to choose what to dial with? I have dw contacts and use that different dialer

Otherwise go to phone and delete saved defaults
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
which dialer you use to call out is up to you. there is no default dialer.(edit: default is set when click on call link. use to call when link is clicked from web or email. to clear go into manage apps and click clear default) when you want to make a call and select phone you are selecting the dialer so just select ex dialer instead. if you want to delete the stock dialer then delete contacts.apk. this deletes dialer(phone) and contacts but ex dialer includes contacts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Amen thanl you :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
This is how it looks wile on a call dpi is 260 i have install dw dialer and ex dialer but still this one comes up when making a call. There must be some thing rong on my end maybe
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
are you pressing phone icon? if so that is your problem. you have to press the ex dialer icon to get into it. phone is the dialer. you cant change what opens when pressing phone. that would be like wanting youtube to open when you press gmail. it is only the ui not the actual phone. if you want to only use ex dialer then put a shortcut to it in place of phone. you can delete contacts.apk so the stock dialer and contacts are gone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
I did delete contacts apk and still when using ex dialer or any other that same one still comes up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
what are you doing to get that dialer to come up? pressing phone or link from web or other?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
There is a setting for one hand dialing and yours is set for left hand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
I click on ex dialer i delete the contact apk allready but it still comes up ill give it one more try
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
if contacts.apk is deleted that dialer should not be in your system anymore. the stock contacts and phone icons should be gone. you didnt delete contactsprovider.apk by mistake did you? and clicking on ex dialer should take you to ex dialer not the stock dialer. what happens if you search web for something with a phone number and click call tab from web page? first time should ask what app you want to use? what are your choices?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dakleenupman:
If you are set at 260 vs the 320 stock, it'll look that way, no?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
Yes setting to 260 will offset the stock dialer like that and not ex dialer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
What Rom/mods/themes are you using?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Am om blackstar vll rom is perfect i just want tp chage the dialer all in iy
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Right
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
I just installed blackstar vii and ex dialer and cant reproduce your problem. When trying to open ex dialer i get ex dialer not stock and deleting contatcs.apk from system/app completly removes the stock dialer(phone) and contacts icons. Sorry but i am out of ideas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Can u post a screen shot of how it looks after instaling ex dialer deleatong contacts apk and u make a call using ex dialer the default one is the one to manage call
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
[/ATTACH][/ATTACH]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Yes but when u make a call its the stock one that manage incoming and outgoin calls
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] s89281b:
Lets see if i have this right. When you open ex dialer does it come up like the screenshot i have of ex or stock? Then when you dial a number from that and initiate a call after it goes to stock? If this is what you are talking about it is not the dialer. The dialer is only the ui for dialing out and not for actualy making the call. This part is handled by phone.apk. Ex dialer is only a dialer. I dont know of any apps that replace the phone. If you want to change the look of that part you need to decompile and mod/theme phone.apk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] daminux:
Thats right thank you i sure hope thers a mod theame for phone.apk some where :(

about my internal SD card

can you tell me how to clean my internal SD card without delete any system which is running

if no , which folder must i keep ?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] -eVo-:
Hey guys, recently flashed a very stripped sense ROM, I love it but it's missing some apps that I like. If anyone could pull and upload basic mail app, friend stream widget, "play music" app and basic voicemail app from their installed rom, that would be much appreciated. Thanks for your help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kf2m:
Some of those apps will not function on a stripped Sense ROM. The easiest way to find out is get a standard Sense ROM, and extract the .apk files from the /system/app folder, and copy them to the same location on your phone, and change permissions to 644 (RW-R--R--) using Root Explorer.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ssojyeti2:

[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Hey guys,

I am in need of anyone who has some broad knowledge of tweaking kernel governors. More specifically the lulzactive for the un named kernel.

I am running zr3d ics if that helps. I am also using cfq scheduler along with lulzactive. This is a fantastic combination that suits my needs very well. However this setting drains my battery pretty quickly. My question is how do I tweak it to still have performance as the upper hand but still have decent battery life? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Wow its been a couple days now. Come on guys, doesn't anybody know how to tweak this governor?
[HTC EVO 3D] klect:
Dude, you posted it yesterday, take it easy.

Maybe google can help, im not a dev.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Actually it was on the 23rd and if you read my post I was asking for someone who had knowledge of this subject. You don't have to be a dev to know how to do this and obviously you didn't have to reply to my post since you don't know anything about what I am talking about. I guess I might have to search for myself if no one can help with this.
[HTC EVO 3D] dessolator666:
uhm, are you sure tweaking your governor is what you need? why not change the combination based on your needs/battery?

namely I would suggest taking a look at SetCPU... great app, allows for some governor tweaking, and more importantly allows you to switch between govs/schedulers depending on battery state, sleep/wake, open apps, battery temp and a host of other conditions.

hope this helps
[HTC EVO 3D] klect:
He wants to tweak the governor itself, from what i understand.
[HTC EVO 3D] dessolator666:
SetCPU can do that as well, on some level
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Thank you for your replies guys. I havnt thought of it like that. I'll give the app a go and see what happens with that. I am a big fan lulzactive. I'm always open for suggestions and solutions. I like learning new things about this stuff and I apreciate all your answers.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
By the way, I am not imitidated to learn these kind of things. I am already good with programming web pages and games from python. Please do not underestimate my intelligence. This is a hobby for me and its fun for me. I would greatly appreciate it if you know of a guide or could point in the direction of where I can learn this stuff and I will give you two thank yous from me.
[HTC EVO 3D] dessolator666:
My apologies, I didn't pay attention to how I sounded, no part of that was meant to be an insult.

[HTC EVO 3D] Jsparta26:
Thank you for being sincere. I did get that impression and glad that you cleared that up. And thank you for helping me out with these materials. I greatly appreciate the help.
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
alright. ive been playing around and cant find some good governors for what i want.

for hardcore gaming, what governor have you found that works the best

for best batter saving, but still be able to watch videos, surf web, email and just general navigating without it being too slow.

which governors do you guys use for both of those? thanks
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
anyone?
[HTC Rezound] darkghost568:
Use the smartassV2 governor. It regulates the CPU frequency according to load (sorta like ondemand except it works better).
[HTC Rezound] Quadrider10:
i tried and i liked it, but it like locked my cpu at 1.24ghz (thats the max i have it set to) and even if i changed it, it would lock to the max frequency????
[HTC Rezound] Snuzzo:
I'll have v1 of Funky kernel out soon if you want to try out wheatley. :)
[HTC Rezound] loonatik78:
I've been a fan of smartassV2 since the first time I used it on the Thunderbolt. It is as close to an ideal governor as I've ever used. SmartassV2, with a complete sysfs implementation, can be tweaked very nicely. It is a governor that you can really tune so that most of the time it's not running balls out, but it's not loafing along either, which is how a governor SHOULD function. (I like to see a nice bell curve peaking at an ideal frequency, and spiked way out at the bottom frequencies when I look at a bar chart of my time-in-state's.) From what I can tell, few if any devs tune their governors to their kernels. I'm thinking that's how we ended up with a dozen or so governors that are rather similar, yet rarely ideal.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Wheatley is epic.
