[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramy670:
@dimsoron

In my case I didn't back up anything, yet I found efs folder in sdcard/backup/efs, so check it first and see what you have, and about the ROM version, it doesn't matter, you can flash any stock ROM even if it's region doesn't match yours, but I'm not sure if that can resolve IMEI problem.

---------- Post added at 06:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

It turned out it DOES solve the problem. Actually I've never read what's after "or" in restoring IMEI mini giude until now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dimsoron:
Wow. I found efs and efs-466 under backup folder. What is the difference?

And how can i restore from that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramy670:
Hmmm..I have no idea what's the difference between them, but if I can recall right you only need the efs file, and how you do that is mentioned in quoted post in my first comment.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dimsoron:
I copied. Device complains that No SIM card. I recognized IMEI is fine now but my phone number is displayed as "unknown". What can the reason be?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramy670:
Well I didn't go through this before, but I'm sure a lot of members here did and they'll tell you what to do as soon as they see your post, but don't worry since your problem is software related the solution would be relatively easy to apply, you can still flash stock ROM anytime with Odin, but make sure to stop KIES before you do it.

[HTC One X] sander-w:
Hello,

I wanted to install CM10 on my One x.

I've unlocked and rooted the device successfully and created a backup of the stock ROM using Clockworkmod (V5.8.2.7).

I then renamed the folder of the rom backup to "stock rom".

So far so good.

I downloaded CM10 and tried to install it. It installed the files correctly and then rebooted and the CM logo appeared.

But after many hours of waiting, the logo was still on the screen and it was still loading/booting.

This could not be ok so I rebooted into the boatloader and thought I'd set back the backup of the stock ROM.

When trying to restore the stock rom I get the following error:

"Checking MD5 sums..."

"MD5 mismatch".

I think this error is caused because I renamed the backup folder.

How can I solve this problem?

Can I connect to the boatloader using USB and then rename the folder or calculate a new MD5 crc??

Kind regards.
[HTC One X] matt95:
you can't rename the folder from bootloader, you have to get into recovery, mount usb and then rename the folder
[HTC One X] sander-w:
When I go to recovery->mounts and storage menu -> mount USB storage

I get the the following error:

"E: Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)"
[HTC One X] matt95:
you should reinstall your custom recovery just to be sure...

Recovery Download

go into fastboot mode and type:

fastboot flash recovery path/to/recovery.img
[HTC One X] BenPope:
You need clockworkmod 5.8.4.0

fastboot flash recovery recovery-5.8.4.0.img
[HTC One X] sander-w:
Ok. I installed clockworkmod 5.8.4.0.

And now?
[HTC One X] matt95:
now try to mount USB again and see if that works
[HTC One X] sander-w:
It says USB storage is mounted.

Also when the bootloader enters HBOOT it says " failed to open usb master mode". is that ok?
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
don't forget you need to:

- extract the boot.img from the CM10 ROM zip file.

In fastboot....

- flash the boot.img with the command 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'

- clear the cache with the command 'fastboot erase cache'

reboot into your recovery program

find the USB mounting option and mount it

copy the CM10 ROM zip file

unmount the drive

do a factory reset

wipe the dalvik cache

install CM10

....and reboot

usually if it's stuck on the splash it's because you didn't clear out the dalvik cache.

can you get into fastboot on the phone? you'll need fastboot in order to flash the kernel
[HTC One X] matt95:
now that you can mount USB remane the nandroid backup and restore it...
[HTC One X] sander-w:
Yes I can get into fastboot.

I'm currently downloading CM10 so I will try your suggestions in a second.
[HTC One X] sander-w:
I did the following.

- extracted the .img file

- flashed it using : 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'

- cleared cache

- reboot into recovery

- The mounts and storage menu looks like this.

- unmount /cache

- mount /data

- mount /sdcard

- mount /system

- format /cache

- format /data

- format /sdcard

- format /system

- mount USB storage

When I open up the "mount USB storage' menu I get:

"USB Mass Storage device

Leaving this menu unmount

your SD card from your PC."

- unmount

- ++++ Go Back ++++

So it looks like the sdcard is mounted but I cant see it as a drive on my pc.
[HTC One X] matt95:
try changing usb cable
[HTC One X] sander-w:
That didn't help.
[HTC One X] matt95:
can you take a screenshot of the USB mounting process?
[HTC One X] sander-w:
see files attached
[HTC One X] sander-w:
I think I understand the "problem'.

The sd card is mounted when I'm in the "mount USB storage" menu. When I leave the menu, the sdcars is unmounted.

Now I can continue with the zip file
[HTC One X] sander-w:
I solved it.

after the sd card was mounted I could install the ROM
[HTC One X] matt95:
glad to hear that ;)
[HTC One X] sander-w:
Thanks all for helping me out!

if no, why no?

Is it virus free coz its based on linux?
[HTC Incredible S] ZaySk:
I see absolutely no point in using antivirus on Android. I've sideloaded ton's of apk's from various websites and never ran into any problems. Pointless IMO.

[HTC Incredible S] husky69:
As the average new virus and the average 0-day is able to keep hidden for up to a year I see no point for anti virus at all! Heuristics almost never work correctly, and the number of possible security holes on a computer is so vast that it's unlikely they ever will :-\

Oh, and that time span is not my personal opinion, it stems from a study made by an employee from Norton Security (IIRC).
[HTC Incredible S] MrToastbrot:
I've only installed avast for the anti-theft module.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:

Its not as though you have Terabytes of data to protect. At the most I imagine you would want to protect photos, sms/mms, music and perhaps app settings and highscores.

All of these can easily be backed up to a pc or cloud storage and its a good habit to get into because in my opinion flashing roms, radios ,kernels, hboots, etc has a much higher probability for data loss than a virus threat.

Merely out of curiosity, is it possible to port Sense 4+ with Jellybean to our device? Or is it not at all possible?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
It would need to be resized, because all that is available at the moment is the One X and One X+

Most ports are based off Snapdragon phones but there are no snapdragon JB Sense roms atm :(
[HTC Incredible S] suliman lbabidi:
if we have ported it without resizing,then we changed the lcd density to some other value,will it work?
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
If that worked, it would have been done with the current ports :)

Every time I flash a new ROM, the phone is super fast and responsive at first. Then over time, it starts to slow down and have weird lag even after I reboot it. I only install a handful of apps on the phone too. Anyone experience this too?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mailboy1412:
Yes, phone does slow down over time due to new apps which introduce

extra background processes to fetch and update like mail, calendar, ..... As well as more data the phone has to load , example: Messaging app is slower because of the amount of messages.

Are you using Hellybean or any other CM10 based ROM? It's recommended to wipe cache and fix permissions when it starts to slow down. This should fix the problem.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
You'd probably have to wipe. Do a full rom backup in CWM and flash MIUI without wipe. If that doesn't work, restore rom and backup using titanium backup or some other backup app, then wipe and flash MIUI, and install apps and restore data.

Probably best if you download the apps yourself then use backup app to restore data only.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrismast:
you can restore them 1 by 1, not sure if there is a option to restore only the latest as any backup you do will overwrite the one you did before (if it is them same app), whereas there is for instance an option to only restore apps with data changes if I remember well.

no, you can't use osbuilder because this rom isn't built like other winCE's roms (wm6.x, wp7). This rom has got his own filesystem (I think it should be ReFS), and his own structure. You have to wait because some developers are digging into it. Right now we only know that the system structure is similar to a Windows PC, even drivers are in sys format (this is a bad news for those who are waiting a porting to older devices).

It seems to differ also from W8 with that way that the user mode driver model is not supported, just KMDF & WDM kernel mode drivers. Packages are developed by installing The Windows Driver Kit (WDK) and top of that couple of specific WP8 kits. There is user mode only for applications which the OEM installs.

1. codebase of gui is shared with 7.8 - you really thought they will rewrite it? becose of it and becose Its a phone where you dont need explorer.exe subsystem. some additions was made into os composition . its more similar to - windows embended then windows RT (WOA ) . biggest example of embended roots is - Image update process . in WP8 system partition with main os - read only ntfs . in order to write something there - system reboots into Windows PE enviroment.. rest of the system is damn similar . even SXS in place lol . ( atleast package structures clearly indicates on that ).

2. disabling kernel mode for all apps is expectable . in early 2012 they sayd. that they did it to minimise of potential security impact in bugged OEM SOFTWARE . or you really think - they does not noticed security hole in HTC connection manager or some OEM software which helps in jailbreak os .. ofc they know it
