you can format boot and should not try booting phone BUT powerdown, pull out battery, sim, SD cards and go into download mode to flash FULL package

you can get everything you need from My Android Collections place a bootloader with ROM package and also tick update bootloader

Hey all! I recently ordered an extended battery on ebay and was wondering if anyone has found a bumper sticker ase that will fit the extended battery? This way it could protect the phone without making it thicker

Also would like a bumper for my extended battery.

Jelly Bean Android version 4.1 and announced a few months ago by Google, has already his successor. It would be called, according to the latest rumors, Key Lime Pie or tart limes in French and is labeled with the number 4.2.

It is the site Android and Me brings us the latest news, with an internal source who has provided accurate information in the past.

According to them, this new version bring a personalization center, Project Roadrunner, or updating applications Google Play Now Google and video player.

The personalization center:

According to the source, a personalization center will be available to change ringtones, language packs, wallpapers, launcher, and a few other customizable filters. Certain assumptions are talking about custom themes introduced by the manufacturers, but that would be only a supplement and not pre-installed interface directly fused to the system time. This center is primarily a convenient way to allow the average consumer to make some basic customizations. The range of options can obviously be extended via Google Play.

This new system will allow manufacturers to provide their own interfaces manufacturers through this new center. When updates to Android if the manufacturer fails to provide a version compatible with the theme, simply return the terminal to the classic user interface.

So it sounds like a dream come true. Google may have finally found a solution that will allow consumers to update the Android operating system base, without having to wait for the new version of the interface builder.

The Roadrunner Project:

Somewhat in the same spirit as the Butter Project on Android 4.1, which allows an increase in the number of FPS (note: the number of frames per second), the Roadrunner Project will improve battery life by optimizing and reduced power consumption, allowing improved overall autonomy.

Update Google Play Now Google and video player:

Play Google: it is enhanced with new features such as personalized search - Optional integration with promotions - Improved notifications and improved in-app purchase;

Now Google: Google voice assistant now offer a user guide that will, for example, ask such questions as: "How do I enable Bluetooth? "Or" How can I reduce the brightness? "Facilitating these operations for novice users;

The native video player: it would benefit from an update regarding APIs and codecs will probably accounting expanded video formats, allowing the development of a new application dedicated to this medium.

It should be borne in mind that all this must be considered as a rumor, even if that source is reliable. Ilandroid-4-2-visits seems that Google has also begun to distribute devices to its employees since some sites are beginning to see the emergence of Android 4.2 in their statistics.

The concept of a certification program for Google Nexus is not excluded given the number of phones provided by Google this year. This will allow the web giant to take a little more control over certain issues and improve the Android experience.

Oh, for the love of God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By the way, the website that posted this has retracted its statement and said that the source was not reliable.

Also, the OP should be stung by a wasp. A big one! (>_>)

What part of search before you post is not clear? You created a thread just like this one that was closed already so you create a new one? There is already a 4.2 thread. Use that one instead of creating a new one.

Is it possible to HARD BRICK hTC One V on stock ROM.

My phone is

not

rooted + the bootloader is also

not

unlocked.

Will it be HARD BRICKED :D

I'm Planning a REPLACEMENT from hTC if it gets BRICKED. I purchased my phone 4-5months ago from INDIA, but the phone has some scratches on back and side part so planning to get it HARD BRICKED and get a replacement from hTC, IS IT POSSIBLE?
[HTC One V] donhashem.dh:
No you can't while its on stock ,root it and install a kernel for another phone,that will do the job ...btw how much will you sell it for ...ill buy it to test roms on it but only if its primou

[HTC One V] asantaga:
Hey OP.. Actually some bad news. I think when HTC receive bricked phones they use a JTAG to unbrick them, so unless theres a motherboard failure I think you'll receive the same phone back, scratches et all... Even with a motherboard failure they might send u back the same case....

Let us know man, thanks for giving it a go...if you can also please, let us know the exact steps if OP doesnt get back to us soon. Thanks again man!
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
Bump...still stumped on how to do this...I'm assuming flash through AP fastboot correct? ADB? Do I flash it from cmd (command) I'm on a Windows 7 64 bit and the cmd is not recognizing my device...I'm confused. Or did you use RSD? I have all files needed I believe but am also confused about the moto-fastboot part...any more information would be much appreciated. Sorry for the urgency but I am in a pickle myself. Been about a week since my phones been able to boot...I need this! lol! Thanks again man! Great job! :good:
[Motorola Atrix 2] tcf38012:
Download moto-fastboot-win32.zip and flash it from there. Just copy the dll's and moto-fastboot.exe to C:\Windows\System32 and then goto where I instructed in the tutorial(2.3.6 GB/My minimal ics fxz) and run the commands. If you get to a part where I say recovery and then reboot into recovery and flash the zip. You also need to do it from cmd.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Just a little criticism here, from someone who has done these type of things before.

Think about your audience, and that they may not know everything you do.

It might help to lay it all out step by step command syntax for both windows and *nix/Mac users. I am afraid that you will keep getting posts like this from users who do not know how to do all of these things.

Use this as an example:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19957710

I hope this is helpful, as I am just trying to help out.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I modified jim's script a bit and made these two batch files for windows users who want to attempt this but are not too comfortable using command prompts...

For part#1 above - This goes with the minimal fxz files (just put it in the folder with the minimal fxz files and the moto-fastboot files - note that you will be prompted to hit enter a couple of times during the flash because of the pauses): https://dl.dropbox.com/u/61960599/minimalFXZA2.bat

For part#2 above - This goes with the GB 2.3.6 img files (again, put it in a folder with those 5 .img files and the moto-fastoot files): https://dl.dropbox.com/u/61960599/236IMGsA2.bat

For part#4, just use the command line, or edit the minimalFXZA2.bat file and remove all of the lines for flashing except the ones for cdt.bin and recovery.img.

@tcf38012 - i hope this is ok i put these together... please check them out, I did change the flashing order of part#2 and added a reboot bootloader before the cdt.bin in part#1 - this is the order the official fxz flashed those files.. so, again I'm not sure if there was some magic in the way you originally flashed these, but..

@jim - i hope this is okay that i used stuff from your script.. please provide your input as well.. i think a few people are really counting on this working for them
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
i tried the above steps till reboot into recovery i tried rebooting power+vol down it took me to a andrioid with belly open and then there was a bar down like it was installing something when completed i tried from recovery to flash ics but it rebooted in between and then now it comes up with invalid cg version help me.do i start the process again?what do i do?any one?
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
idk why but it keeps saying ' moto-fastboot' is not recognized? any suggestions?
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Sounds like you made it through step 3.. I think you need to flash only the cdt.bin and recovery.img again from the minimal fxz package.. then install the ota again..

But, I have never done this so I'm not certain exactly.

Sent from my phone's mind
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Thank you!! I think others will be very happy you did this.
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
are you sure coz the time it took from me starting the flash of ics to the device rebooting and giving and invalid cg version was like one minute or so.and you think just flashing cdt.bin will let me boot normally into ics leak 1?

---------- Post added at 08:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 AM ----------

[/COLOR]btw i too thought i was done thru step 3 but when i try to flash recovery.img it gives me INFOPreflash validation failure
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Are you sure everything is in the same folder? Try this moto-fastboot package: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/61960599/motofastboot.zip

So, make sure the files are in the same folder of the files you are flashing, and make sure you have no spaces in the path to the folder (best if you just throw it in or close to C:\) - also make sure you have the moto drivers installed on your comp.

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 PM ----------

Just try to re-flash the cdt.bin and recovery.img again - in that order... and everything spelled properly

EDIT - I just want to make a little disclaimer that this is not my method, I am just trying to help out, and this is only my understanding of it all - please proceed at your own risk and/or risks..
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
flash the cdt.bin and recovery.img from ics leak1 or minimal fxz?

i tried it from ics leak 1 but i keep getting the error INFOPreflash validation failure FAILED (remote: )
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
From the minimal 2.3.6 fxz, not ICS.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Also, are you opening the command prompt on that folder? Hold shift and right-click the folder, or type cd C:\blah\blah\thefolder as an example
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
so i flashed cdt.bin and recovery.img from minimal fxz and then rebooted into recovery and applied ics leak1 now what do i have to do do i have to flash cdt.bin and recovery.img from ics or what?and then again flash ics leakq?
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Yes, then reinstall the ICS leak again.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
According to him it should boot into ICS then.. see his original post (which he removed - and the steps were a little different) here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32511801&postcount=2

I don't know what else to tell you, like I mentioned it's not my method and I am not familiar with it - so, I would suggest to charge your battery somehow and hopefully the OP can help you better - or start over and try again..

EDIT - if you got the belly up android, just try to install the ota again.. if it's the fastboot cg error again, then the above statements apply.. Lol, sorry I don't mean to sound all cold and legal about this..
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
btw when i reboot after flashing ics leak1 i am getting the error AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Invalid CDT)

and then below this is written two times:

Invalid CG Version (CG: cdt)

Invalid CG Version(CG:cdt)

and when i try to flash cdt.bin from ics it gives me INFOPreflash validation failure

INFOno such partition

FAILED(remote: )
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Well, according to his original post he said: "Third, I entered recovery and applyed the first ICS leak, then it went into fastboot and complained about recovery and cdt so I flashed it from the minimal fxz's. And then I re-applyed the ics leak and then Something unreal happened, it booted"

So, maybe just flash the cdt.bin from the minimal fxz again, then re-apply the update.. this is uncharted territory - just so you know - I have know idea if it will work
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD....

IT WORKS!!!!!!

I am a bit unclear on the steps though coz after rebooting into recovery I had run into some problems as described in the posts above,but overall this is what I think happened.

1.After completing the first two steps as mentioned in OP and rebooting into recovery I had that droid with belly open and without my doing anything it sort of like installed something.

2.When it finished doing its thing,I applied ICS Leak#1 but it rebooted within a minute and gave me invalid cg error

3.Then I flashed cdt.bin and recovery.img-IN THAT ORDER from MINIMAL fxz.

4.Then I booted into recovery applied the ICS Leak#1.

5.On rebooting I got the cdt error(APFastboot Mode (S) (Invalid CDT) a few more lines and Invalid CG Version (CG:cdt) )

6.Then again I flashed cdt.bin and recovery.img from MINIMAL FXZ and rebooted.

6.Then it was on moto logo for a while so I thought it didn't work and started typing a post about the error on xda from my lappy and then suddenly out of nowhere beyond my wildest imagination i heard the AT&T booting sound (and for the first time in my life i liked that sound) and moments later my ICS WAS UP AND RUNNING.

It is showing an available update in system update but I don't have a wifi right now so will ota later in the day but MAN THIS WORKS!!!!!

Thank you all @tcf38012,jimbridgman,alteredlikeness.....

I owe uou guys big time man...

EDIT:I tried to a bit clear as to what I did and explained my steps a bit...
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
:D That is awesome!! Very, very good to hear that it worked out - good job on your behalf with being so persistent.. and thanks for verifying the method (which needs a little fine-tuning).. but, this is big news!

So, it was the files from the minimal fxz.. that's how it should be - those are from leak#2.

Excellent work tcf!!
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Gonna try this now on my A2 as well. Will report back shortly kids.

Although I kinda wish the OP was a little more interactive with his posts.... ah se la vie...

EDIT: BAH, battery's too low. Need to charge and try again.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Good luck man - I wish I could stay up for this but I gotta get to bed..

[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
Well i already had the heart attacks and shocks with the little flaws of this method and have described how to avoid them.so here's hoping a member like you and for that matter anyone else doesn't go through with it again.
[Motorola Atrix 2] sad_but_cool1:
why to attack man ! you are trying to help other and share your experience

there is nothing to lose when users had a bricked phone to try your method,

maybe some other users had a non identical situation,so,they failed using your steps.

anyway,thank you bro.
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
I didn't get what you were implying.or maybe you didn't get what i was trying to say.

All i meant was if someone tries this not so tested method and runs into problems like i did and without the knowledge that this has happened to someone else he might get a lil shock or at least chill down his spine.atleast now he will know that there's a way out.
[Motorola Atrix 2] mutalikga:
guys this really works... great job...
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I think this is all just a case of being lost in translation... a misunderstanding... or not reading thoroughly..

If it's about the comment about the flaws with the method - he's kinda right, it does seem to need to be cleaned up a bit.. or at least the guide does. We will work with tcf (if he wants) to get something a little more straight forward for everyone.

Let's keep on track here - we have a way out of final att ics softbricks!! Give thanks to the OP and those who tested this...

You tested it yourself? Excellent news if its another positive test run..

Sent from my phone's mind
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
What??

I got no attacking out of his post.

The OPs method is not clear at all, and alteredlikeness and I will both work with him (if he wants), to get this clear, and much easier for those that do not have the knowledge or skills to do this and "figure"/feel it out as they go.

Next time try and be more helpful, rather basically attacking someone who tried this and tried to make it more clear for others.

Oh and by the way there is something to lose, you can turn a soft brick into a hard brick quite easily with this phone, so... clarity is important.
[Motorola Atrix 2] A2Trip:
Man, keep getting a status 7 error while trying to flash ics leak #1...this is hard dude...n now I got 15% battery need to charge :(
[Motorola Atrix 2] sad_but_cool1:
ohhhh **** !!!!

another misunderstand !!

you are considered as developer ,you must understand codes/functions/routines, but the strange thing that you can not understand my post above !!

very slily ! you and those who thanks your post !

this is not the first time you/other users here attacking me directly.

a great forum with junk ppl !
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Why would you go and continue this instead of just calling it a misunderstanding?? Please review the posts again and you should see that no one attacked you directly, it's just that your original post here did sound like you were going after the guy who was testing this, when he was just trying to make sense of it all and not have a heart-attack himself.

...but after the "junk ppl" comment you should probably expect some actual direct attacks.

Why does everyone get so offensive and defensive on this forum?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Moscow Desire:
Knock it off people.

PM's coming, and you know who you are, so expect it.

[Motorola Atrix 2] Moscow Desire:
Now, after looking at previous post's, I would have to agree.

"Lost in translation".

Perhaps the use of the word "attack", wasn't the best Google Translate could use. ;)

So you "old guys". and I mean "old", should first look at the "more info" button, and see the origin of the poster. And "maybe", be a little more understanding.

Geeze.... here I thought I had a third alarm fire.....

Peace On!

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Sorry about that, it must have gotten lost in translation. I was "MOD EDIT: Wasn't " attacking you at all, just trying to clear up, that the other user was trying to help out users that were having a hard time getting the steps down. It seemed like you were giving him a hard time from your post, and I just wanted to make sure that was understood.

Again I am sorry if you thought I was attacking, that was not my intention. I just wanted to make sure that deveshmanish was given credit for helping others out.

[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
After you write a script and get the steps and instructions down, maybe let alteredlikeness and I take a look in a pm, then I would personally post it in the dev section (after we have a look, and maybe give you some pointers), since you will be creating/developing scripts to get everyone back up and running.

We can use this as the testing ground to improve the process, and make it better, before posting in the dev section, if you know what I mean.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
I completely agree with jim... plus, what do you need a sticky for? Those get overlooked at the top of the page (and I personally rarely go to the stickies section on the xda app)... a good thread will usually keep getting bumped up for one reason or another.
[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:

[Motorola Atrix 2] Moscow Desire:
Get back to work. :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

MD
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
MD, maybe we lock this thread, what do you think?

I personally think it served it's purpose, and since the OP is planning on redoing and creating an automated way to get the job done, to be posted in the dev section later.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Well, not so sure I agree with that.. I'd let it be while a few of the kinks are still being worked out and other users give it a try... It's a good place to post questions when trying to do the process... plus, I think it's calmed down in here again.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
Yeah, but I just want to make sure we get back on track with the OP, and working on this moving forward, if it stays open, that was all I was getting at. It sort of derailed.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Agreed. Derailed as usual.. We need to get with tcf to move forward and fine-tune this. I will hop on irc later - hope to see you guys there.

[Motorola Atrix 2] deveshmanish:
A quick follow up question can't this method be modified to include leak2 to instead of leak1 like when we flash leak1 can we replace it by leak2 flash??

Just a random thought most probably you all must have thought about it.would it be possible technically?
