[HTC Wildfire S] Gazington:
I had the same problem and even contacted HTC Dev for an answer. They told me that I had to wait until they had updated the ROM to the latest version. However, I've since found this to be incorrect!

Once you've logged in to HTCdev and you've proceeded to the Bootloader Instructions there is a note near the top of the page:

In other words, if your current ROM version (2.26.720.3) is newer than the one listed for your carrier, e.g. H3G UK = 2.14.771.4, then you can simply skip to the next page and start the Bootloader unlock process. :victory:

Please note: Be sure to download the required files for the Android SDK, Java Runtime and HTC Sync (MS Windows only) before you start, though; links are on the first Bootloader Instructions page under 'Required Resources'.

Follow all the instructions on HTCdev and you should end up with an Unlocked Bootloader. Then you can Root your device! I used the One Root utility:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1678421

I had to run it twice as it didn't seem to work the first time, but my device is now rooted and I'm enjoying the freedom of having the choice to do pretty much what I want with it.

Make sure you download these apps once Root has been obtained:

- BusyBox Free

- Titanium Backup (free or paid app) - freeze/remove bloatware apps, backup your device, etc.

- Superuser - grant certain apps Superuser permissions, i.e. Links2SD, Titanium Backup, AdFree, etc.

- SU Update Fixer (if you have trouble granting Superuser access)

- Links2SD - see this thread for more info on why you should use it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1432459

- ROM Manager (free or paid app) - includes ClockworkMod Recovery and various ROM management tools

- SetCPU (paid app) - set CPU minimum and maximum

- AdFree - stop advertising on free apps and whilst web browsing

They're all available in the Play marketplace.

Obviously, you're attempting the Unlock and Root procedures at your own risk! Good luck. :good:

that shouldnt be the problem, cm10 has that too

problem is with one of the line containing set_perm

using cm10 updater script doesnt work,

can u try adb pushing all the files via recovery anf then fixing perms

Kind of a basically idiotic question, but what is the difference betwenn Cyanogenmod and AOSP/AOKP???

Just trebuchet?? Or something more??
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ToinouAngel:
AOSP and AOKP are two different things.

AOSP is stock Android, basically it's what you get when you buy a Nexus device. AOKP and CyanogenMod are ROMs that are based on stock Android (AOSP) but that come with added tweaks and features from the developers; such as specific launchers, status bar toggles, lockscreen options etc...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] #define:
Ok.. And whats AOKP?? Android Open Kang Project, right??

Yep.

Can you post a logcat of the crash?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] :

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nukeblitz:
Been wanting pure AOSP for a while now. Can't compile myself - I don't have a desktop/laptop. Would appreciate a DL link for a compiled version...

EDIT: Never mind. Obviously, I need to get my eyes checked :P

I'll put up log cats if I get the chance. Working off the phone complicates things...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sakindia123:
Logcat says "E/dalvikvm( 862): Dex cache directory isn't writable: /cache/dalvik-cache"

Wtf?Didnt realise Jellybean is so strict about perms!

Which,as any newb can figure out,causes the Virtual machine to shut down,thus so many crashes

Will try to hack the ramdisk to fix this,should be easy,simply make /cache/dalvik-cache writable
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nukeblitz:
If that doesn't work, put dalvik-cache in /data instead of /cache.

If I'm not mistaken, 59MB in /cache isn't enough... chrome, I think takes up a lot of apace

As u can see,cache partition has a good amount of free space,and dalvik cache isnt really created on /cache,shouldnt be a issue
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sakindia123:
Cant get this thing to function properly

logcat says "E/dalvikvm( 1542): Dex cache directory isn't writable: /cache/dalvik-cache" due to which dalvik-cache for any app isnt able to get created,and thus dalvik virtual machine crashes....

i tried to "chown system cache /cache/dalvik-cache" and /cache and /data/dalvik-cache but the error continues ,i also try to symlink /data/dalvik-cache and /cache/dalvik-cache but no difference :(

[HTC One X] lazclark:
Hi, if you can help me unbrick my phone I'll buy you a beer (or three!)

I have an htc one x which i managed to unlock the bootloader via htcdev as in various tutorials....

I was too lazy to take a backup

I then tried to install cyanogenmod 10 using cwm recovery.... (by flashing a zip file i had downloaded - one of the nightly builds)

I wiped the cache etc in cwm

it got stuck in a boot loop i think as it got to the spinning cyanogen logo then nothing happened...

I've tried to get it working again using lots of different methods - i downloaded some RUU exes which failed because they said they weren't the correct ROM (even though they should be right) - then i read a tutorial about how to use fastboot to flash system.img onto the phone but it fails giving error code 00000006

I can't push any zip files to the phone using ADB as I get permission denied errors

I've also tried to use fastboot to flash various recoveries but I can't apply any zips because I can't get them onto the phone in the first place

I've also flashed various recovery.img files but when they load, I get a red triangle after a few seconds

If someone could tell me how to use ADB to push a zip file to the phone I'd be really grateful - have tried everything but keep getting permission denied errors

Thanks

(oh and if you manage to help me fix it I WILL buy you a beer... or 3)
[HTC One X] lazclark:
oh and ....

ALSO I've googled the problem and tried all of the options I can find which could help - please don't just send me a link to a page because i can guarantee I've probably already tried the solution and failed. When I boot into recovery, I can't use adb push to send files to the phone because it says it's not connected even if i try the option for mount data, or mount storage - the only time windows seems to manage to aknowledge it's existence is on the fastboot screen -
[HTC One X] treebill:
Have you flashed the cm boot IMG and then erased fastboot cache?

fastboot flash boot pathtoboot.IMG

fastboot erase cache

For the RUU to work you need to have stock recovery and a relocked boot loader.

if you download the latest clockworkmod mounting as USB storage is fixed.
[HTC One X] lazclark:
thanks!

wow that was a quick reply - yes I've flashed the cm boot img and erased the cache - which version of CWM is the latest? - When you say mounting as USB storage is fixed, do you mean that windows will be able to see the device and write files to it?

(I'm really sorry for asking these questions - the problem is that I know a BIT about how android works but not as much as I should do)
[HTC One X] Michealtbh:
Are you absolutely sure you flashed the boot.img from the rom.zip using fastboot on your computer? Because it really sounds like you didn't
[HTC One X] ORStoner:
This is a thread I made and it should provide you with a solution if not a starting point if you insist on CM10.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1900127

Good luck!
[HTC One X] lazclark:
sorry hope i'm not wasting your time!

I ran the command as follows :-

fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

(I got the img file from the ruu )

I'm not 100% sure if it worked, but at that stage I didn't see any errors
[HTC One X] BenPope:
CWM 5.8.4.0 has the USB mounting fixed. You can go to mounts and storage and mount as USB, then the PC will see it.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Wipe cache and dalvik cache.

I'm pretty sure you either didn't flash the boot.img or flashed the wrong one, so get it again to make sure it's the right one and

fastboot flash boot boot.img

And

fastboot erase cache
[HTC One X] lazclark:
thanks!

I'll give it a go - to be honest i don't insist on using cm10 at all - i just wanted to see what jellbean was like and it seemed like a reasonable way of achieving that.... i'd be quite happy with any decent rom if it can fix the lag problems i have and some of the other issues.....

great tutorial by the way! - once my phone has charged up again I'll try it
[HTC One X] lazclark:
ahhhh!

i think i was trying to run CWM 5.8.2.7 which possibly didn't have usb mounting working? Will give that a shot thanks!
[HTC One X] ORStoner:
Thanks.

I use CM10 myself at the moment because of the aesthetics, but because of the amount of ram and battery it uses I wish I had stuck with ARHD.

Come October we should see Jellybean ARHD which will have great features like USB OTG without a powered hub.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Mount as USB not working on that version, also charging not working either. It was not a great release in terms.of features, but it was updated quickly, that's quite an.old version now.

Do you know which tutorial you followed? It really needs updating, there are a lot of people on this old version struggling more than they need to.
[HTC One X] Michealtbh:
Right, first you're going to flash a recovery which allows you to mount USB storage. Either cwm or TWRP, download the recovery.img and flash through fastboot using fastboot flash recovery rocoveryname.img.

Download a new rom and extract the boot.img from it. Flash that boot.img using the usual fastboot method.

Now boot into the new recovery, connect to your pc and mount USB storage from the option in recovery. Copy over the rom you downloaded. Unmount USB storage. Now do a full wipe through the menu in recovery - format /data, /system and /cache. Now flash the rom and reboot

Hey guys

Running Android 2.3.5 with the latest version of Thrill Seeker, here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1779290

I was wondering if there was any way to go the lagfix on my phone. I've looked, and I haven't found anything other than OneClickLagFix which doesn't want to work for me.

The main reason I installed the above kernel is the ability to overclock. Which comes in handy when using an N64 emulator in conjunction with the 3D converter. However I figured putting a lagfix would speed my phone up even further. If I could only figure it out!

i have also wt19i , and from my experience yes it can be rooted and use a custom rom, i just did it last week , rooted and installed a custom rom and kernel.

but let me tell you that it was running smooth on the stock ics rom ,and also on the custom rom ,it starts lagging only when i install alot of apps that runs in the background , so try to keep that kind of apps to minimum.

Yes you can root and use custom roms, but only for locked bootloader and there are only a few.

Technically, rooting the device voids the warranty.But, if you can unroot before sending it in for warranty, no big deal.

1. Backup your contacts with "contacts backup & restore"

2. Backup your messages with "SMS backup & restore"

3. Backup your call logs with "Call logs backup & restore"

4. Backup all your apps (apk files) using Es file explorer

4. Boot to recovery, perform factory data reset,

5. Flash your firmware again via Odin

Note:

Factory data reset or flashing firmware will not delete files stored on your internal or external SD cards.

Hey guys and girls,

I have a TF101, which boots, then goes blank. (EeePad logo and Asus logos appears, but, that is all.)

Ideas on how to fix this? It feels like software. But, when it does boot I can not see the screen to enable the developer and unknown sources.

So, is there a way to recover the machine without those enabled? I dont care what ROM atm, just want to try the ROM and see if it works.

Thanks in advance
