Hi.

I flashed the standard ROM back onto the phone to get the accelerometer and compass back (and they are, thanks) but when I try to start the phone back into the bootloader thing so I can flash the new ROM the phone just keeps starting up like a normal phone.

How do I get the bootloader thing back so I can get into recovery, etc ?
[Desire HD General] BillzillaAus:
It's been suggested that I use this - theunlockr.com/2012/10/02/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-the-htc-desire-hd

Is that the way to fix it?
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
If you lost recovery, I think you flashed the RUU, not the ROM. Flash a recovery. It's detailed in the OP. If you have questions about how to do so, let me know. And really, there's no need to create a new thread because you haven't received an answer in this one within 10 minutes.

EDIT: and how are you trying to get into bootloader? Did you reboot holding power and volume-down?
[Desire HD General] BillzillaAus:
Three hours actually.

How do I flash a recovery?

Edit - And yes I'm holding the volume down & power buttons down. Worked every time perfectly before this.
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
I may know what is the problem... but I dont remember what was the culprit. I had once the same issue as yours.

In order to fix it, Flash this Cyanogenmod rom first http://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/2806/cm-7.2.0-ace.zip then flash the original RUU and see what will happen then...

Normally, you should be able to flash the RUU after doing this
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Thats maybe because the fastboot mode is enabled , if so , you wont be able to access the bootloader menu

You have 2 options:

Either you remove the battery, you set it back again and directly boot into bootloader using the holding power and volume-down method

or you disable fasboot mode in the settings and then you reboot into the bootloader
[Desire HD General] BillzillaAus:
Unchecking the 'fastboot' option did the trick, thanks.
[Desire HD General] maritimesbob:
I wonder if flashing the stock rom through the pd***.zip method would get around my problem? Or would it just create another?
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
Looks like I hadn't the slightest what I was talking about. Sorry about that. Learn something new every day.
[Desire HD General] maritimesbob:
Thank you, that worked, I have successfully run the ruu and installed the stock rom.

I will now do a brief setup, root the rom, flash cwm and then a JB rom and see if the auto-rotation works.
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Good to hear that...

let the community here know about your results
[Desire HD General] maritimesbob:
Went well, although I could not root with the tool you suggested. I was getting permission errors with it flashing busy box. In the end I used SuperOneClick which rooted me easy. Installed 4ext, flash the recovery and then flash CodefireX.

Auto-rotation is now working with CodefireX (and I assume other JB roms).

Question is I wonder what causes the auto rotation to stop working in the first place? I had it working once before when I flashed a JB rom, then I switched back GB and then ICS/Sense, then the other day tried JB and it never worked.

Thanks for the info.
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Read posts in this thread... (there arent much) so you can have an idea

[Desire HD General] maritimesbob:
Thanks, yeah flashing a Sense 4 rom does seem to be the root cause of the issue, whether all Sense 4 roms are causing this or just one is another question. I've flashed several different Sense 4 roms, could be anyone of them.
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Not really... it seems you did not read all posts.

in addition that I never used sense 4... so your deduction is wrong
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
EDIT: I have just tried sense4... I can confirm that it is ONE of the culprits making auto rotation not functional on JB

:D so now, I have to apply my own fix again :)
[Desire HD General] velveteen:
Unfortunately the battery still jump, I have flashed the SuperStock ROM SS2v5
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Are you using Jellytime or CodeFireX?
[Desire HD General] velveteen:
codefireX SR5
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Well, thats strange.... However, my best advice to you is to flash your DHD with the original RUU, that is, do the second fix in the OP and the see if it works... Hope it will

Im sure that your problem is not caused by your old battery if it is and flashing Original RUUs always fix mysterious problems
[Desire HD General] velveteen:
next time I will flash a aospX 4.0 rom to see whether it works well.
[Desire HD General] espmartin:
I've flashed sense ROMs as well as codefireX & Jellytime, and luckily have never had this issue.
[Desire HD General] Raza Qadri:
flashing a sense 4.1 rom will bring this curse i flashed viperDHD and it broke my auto rotaion i flashed blackout,aospx,icecoldsandwhich without any problem
[Desire HD General] eyadhafez:
Hello everyone

Thank you for the fix but I have a strange problem after the fix my Gps is not working at all :(

It is even not showing the gps icon in the notification bar

Please help me

Thank you again
[Desire HD General] NiCk.JaY:
Which ROM are you using?
[Desire HD General] eyadhafez:
I am using jellytime r 28

thank you for this solution... i actually used the second one but in the end it worked! :cool::good:
[Desire HD General] Enterprise-D:
Get the same problem, auto rotation is broken...

I'm also coming from viperDHD...

Does it work if I restore a nandroid backup of CodefireX after flashing RUU rom?

[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
I GUESS yes, but actually I've never tested it
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
GPS has nothing to do with this fix

it's a rom issue dude !
[Desire HD General] Raza Qadri:
Yup man i also broke my rotation because of that rom
[Desire HD General] eyadhafez:
I made a backup for the rom before applying the fix and the gps was working and when I finished the fix I have restored the backup and the auto rotation is working and every thing is working expect the gps.

I have tried another jelly bean rom and the gps still not working but for ics and gb rom it is working

Please if anyone can help if there is any fix or something to get the gps working again
[Desire HD General] NiCk.JaY:
Hey guys, I too had broken g sensor when I flashed jelly time. But I was too lazy to apply this fix. So what I did was this (I didn't know that I'll have autorotation working by doing the following steps):

1. I went back to ViperDHD v1.1.0. Used it for a day or two.

2. Flashed IceColdSandwich 8.8. Again used for a day or two.

3. Just to try my luck again, I flashed jelly time again and now the g sensor works like before.

Just wanted to share this.
[Desire HD General] eyadhafez:
fix to gps problem

Hey guys

I found a solution to my problem :)

I have flashed the Ice Cold Sandwich 8.8 and it had a working gps the I restored my backup of jellytime and I found the gps working again

Now I can enjoy my jellytime fully working ;)
[Desire HD General] wex28:
Thanks
[Desire HD General] Jacco_vdP:
Thank you, fixed my auto rotation issues. And on the other hand, my battery is a lot less jumpy than before, no idea if this fixed it:p
[Desire HD General] xxkid123:
I've had something like this, where I would flash the same ROM and sometimes auto rotate would work, sometimes it wouldn't. I flash MIUI JB (bliind's) and didn't have autorotate, flashed some random things, went to JT v28, didn't have autorotate, and flashed a few more things, went to JT v29, had autorotate, then went to Bliind's MIUI JB and had autorotate working. Then I flashed cfx 4.2 BR8, didn't have autorotate and now I'm going to try this fix.
[Desire HD General] rjand:
Install the stock RUU ROM, it's the Viper ROM with sense 4 that is causing the problems. Then install whatever ROM you want to work with.
[Desire HD General] xxkid123:
Hmm I recall that I had this issue before I flashed viper DHD, as well as after it.

Either way i flashed a rooted HTC inspire ruu before flashing cfx4.2 br8. Auto rotate issues are fixed for me now

Edit: figured I should give my exact process. From cfx4.2 br7 I flashed to oxylite (to get onto gingerbread first) before flashing gizmoes rooted ruu. I decided that it looked pretty sexy so i installed gizmoes rooted RUU v2, which has a few tweaks installed. I then got fed up with the lack of overall tweaks, told myself that i could flash rcmix's energy when i had time to mess around, and flashed br8, which I'm on right now, auto rotate a okay
[Desire HD General] jelbez:
worked but...

It worked for me but hard way :/

Flashing the rooted RUU didn't worked.

Flashing the standard RUU worked but broke may "patched eng S-off" AAHK HBOOT so flashing a recovery in fastboot didn't worked anymore (NOT ALLOWED). Had to reflash HBOOT using AAHK.

Now everything's fine.

Thank guys for the "fix"

Hope some one will nail the root cause and have an easier fix ^^

[Desire HD General] frank_hdz:
Question

When you said to root your rom using this ____.

Do you mean your jellybean rom or the one that you downloaded???
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
The one you dowloaded :)

The JB rom or custom roms in general can't be intalled on unrooted phones.... So, automatically, using custom roms means that your device is already rooted.
[Desire HD General] monemhamid:
thanks, i also went from viper to miui and faced toggle problem. used this guide to fix issue.

But just for my knowledge, after full wipe, what information or data is left behind which can lead to this fix?
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Even devs don't know :) sorry
[Desire HD General] salman45:
Is it possible to have custom app option or any other alternate method ? Those rom which i like

most does not have this option.
[Desire HD General] hdorius:

[Desire HD General] salman45:

I used 1 guide. But i restored JB nandroid backup and my autorotation is working again! :)
[Desire HD General] salman45:
i have seen many time and tried different versions of cfx as well as latest but custom app feature is missing . i used this feature in viperDhd rom.

cfx has same options as pacman has for hardwarekeys . screen shot is in my first post.
[Desire HD General] hdorius:
So,u just wanted to custom "toggle torch" cause the one that cfx doesn't have is the toggle torch

Edit: maybe i know what u want,u want to custom back key isn't it?
[Desire HD General] salman45:
Bellow attached image is from viperdhd and that is what i am looking for .

Long press of hardkeys open custom apps like opera, uc or any other app. I want this in pacman rom . Is it possible?
[Desire HD General] hdorius:
No...u re previous image is misleading...if u want like viper Rom why u post the pacman..:banghead:
[Desire HD General] salman45:
lol. sory for the confussion.

in my first post i asked about a feature which is missing and attached the image of pacman in which that feature was missing.

bro am i clear now :(
[Desire HD General] tedrogers61:
I am told over on the JellyTime thread that this is a known issues caused by installing a Sense 4 rom like viper:
[Desire HD General] Li0nHeart:
I tried fix-1.. installing the prerooted ROM. After doing that, and restoring my backup, it still didn't work.

Found it too much hassle to go thru fix-2.

I did install ICS 8.0 after that, and in this ROM auto-rotate works.

Again I restored my backup, and still, auto-rotate doesn't work.

Then I installed a rotate on/off widget (Auto Rotate Widget). After using it to turn auto-rotate off and on, all of a sudden auto-rotate started to work again.

So a simpler fix might be, to just turn AutoRotate off everywhere, and then back on again. I can't test this anymore, but maybe someone else can.
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
It seems to me you are very lucky :) So lucky DHD users who are experiencing the issue can try what you've said .... However I do not think it would work for the majority ... Some of us have already tried it in vain.... We were unlucky :D !!!
[Desire HD General] Li0nHeart:
Heh.. Am gonna go back to backup of BR11 because GPS not working on later ROMS. Let's see if auto-rotation keeps working ;)

[Desire HD General] The_Virus:
Had to do on codefireX 4.2.1 SR2 as well. But unfortunately the simple "fix" didn't help. I had to do the extended "fix". Man, this took ages! Nearly 2h i guess, just to fix something simply as auto rotation. But in the end, it works now again!

Hi guys I've had this problem before and I could only fix it using the long way, problem is that I need to do it again but I've got a new Windows 8 laptop since and the RUU doesn't seem to play nice with it.

Does anybody know if flashing the stock PDXXX.IMG will fix the problem and if it'll remove my S-Off or not?
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Concerning Windows 8, its a known issue. Here is your fix : http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1896267

When talking about PDXXX.IMG, is it a recovery, a radio or what ? If it is a radio or a recovery image, then you won't loose S-off.

if it's somthing else, then, Sorry! I have no idea !
[Desire HD General] scaryshark:
The actual full ROM, it doesn't matter though because I'm pretty sure it comes packaged with a HBOOT so I'll probably lose S-Off.

As for the Windows 8 problem, the link doesn't seem to be working, you don't perhaps have another do you! :D

I've completed the steps as set out on #3 of the official release being:

Auto rotation not working in JellyBean ?

First of all, verify that all auto-rotate options are enable in CFX Settings (CFXsettings - Display / CFXsettings - Interface - Lockscreen).

Both those settings have been selected and are on, yet I still cannot rotate the home page as per that video at the bottom of post #1 of official release.

Post Radio Flash Effect

Not sure if this would be helpful for the developers but I have started facing the the auto-rotation issue just a while ago after flashing latest radio.

current ROM - Synergye's 4.2.1 SR4.1

prev. radio - Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M

flashed radio - 12.69.60.29_26.17.14.11

Ever since this ONLY radio flash - my auto-rotation has stopped working. I guess the issue has something to do with radios as well.

Cheers for the quickfix!! :good:

original RUU link not working?

Pre-rooted ROM (tried the LITE version) did not fix auto rotation in the home screen and app drawer, so I tried to download the original RUU - the Rapidshare page loads but the download link is not working (tried in IE, Chrome and Firefox). Is there an alternate location recommended?

KN
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
Thanks for reporting, The link was changed. The file is now uploaded on Hotfile.

EDIT: Concerning AutoRotation in Homescreen and appdrawer, I'm facing that problem since the 2 last synergye's releases. I have tried my own fix , but in vain. I mention that AR works great in settings and other places.

You can try and let me know of your results so we can see what we can do.
[Desire HD General] :
Rikodu

AR worked in CM7 on home screen and app drawer but not in the prerooted RUU from nitr00. I also flashed my old ARHD 704 nandroid backup and no luck there either. It works fine in all the apps which didn't work until I flashed the prerooted RUU. So, it got me through most of the way.

Thanks for the alternate link. I will try the hotfile link and let you know. However, I am a bit apprehensive of having to lose root and re-root!! Still in two minds of whether the rotation is that big a deal since it works now in most places after using your first fix.. :confused:

[Desire HD General] hadi_xman:
In Method 2... will it make phone S-ON after flashing Stock ROM?
[Desire HD General] Rikodu:
The RUU wether the prerooted or the original one installs the STOCK rom with Sense... There is no option available to make its appdrawer and home screen able to rotate, so we can't consider it as a problem.

NO, be sure of that :) However, if you flash the original RUU, you will need to reroot again... (Just follow the steps in the OP and you will be fine)
[Desire HD General] :
Thanks for clarifying. I am not going to flash the stock rom as AR works in all apps.
[Desire HD General] tekri:
unbelievable, after second try (flash unrooted, root, jelly) it's working.

WHY? There is sollutions, but why that way? It's some special in orig. ROM for initializing HW? Why this is working after FULL WIPE? It's there something missing in Jelly?
