Okay tell me I understand this correctly.

Format both internal/external drives via settings > privacy > Factory data reset (this does not touch the SD Card, right?) while USB cable connected.

Power off phone and boot into download mode, then flash a "Stock Gingerbread Rom" (matching the model #, will it still be FI27 or not?) then at this point if I'm still on FI27 all I'll need to do is reflash "SPH-D710_FI27_CL1127689_Rooted_Restore" to regain root.

If after doing a factory reset and flashing a stock gingerbread rom I may have to wait for updates to be pushed to my phone, or not?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
No. What i said will format sd. Just take it out prior to formatting. That way you know it won't get touched.

Here:

1. Take your sd card out.

2. Flash a gb one click. Boot, go into settings, reset and choose format USB.

3. Once complete, flash the fi27 v2.

4. Put your sd card back in.

Leaves you rooted, updated and clean.

Okay awesome, so one last question- In step 2 I'll need to find a GingerBread Rom for FI27 then the rest will flow nicely?

This is what I'm on right now: well scratch that, everytime I try to take a screenshot via [power+home] it's saved to, "Computer\Epic 4G Touch\Phone\Pictures\Screenshots" and I tried 4x and they are always 0 bytes, but I can view it on the phone. O_o wtf!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
No sir. A complete gb one click. The stock rom repository, a sticky in the dev section, will have what you need.

Wow, see how lost I am LOL!

I found this here, but all I see is a bunch of model numbers even for GB!

This site is full of useful information, but I swear it's hard to find what someone else is talking about...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Right thread.

Just download the rooted el29 one click to use to perform the factory reset and format.

You already have the fi27 one click rooted restore to use after you format.

You're set.

[HTC One X] ontzaboy:
Okay so I noticed this unusual problem yesterday.

I´m using CWM 5.8.4 at the moment, and seems that I cannot make any Nandroid backups.

When I boot into recovery and start making the backup it starts normally and starts backing up the system, but after a while my HOX just freezes and reboots.

I´ve already tried with CWM 5.8.4, the CWM based 6.0.1.5 and TWRP 2.3.1.0, and issue still persists.

I´m not new to flashing, I do know the right procedures, and methods, right now I´m just wondering why the recoveries crash while trying to backup.

Solutions and suggestions? :)
[HTC One X] matt95:
try deleting the recovery.log file in the internal memory
[HTC One X] ontzaboy:
Thanks for the reply :) Precisely where in internal? I found one only in sdcard :o
[HTC One X] matt95:
That's the one
[HTC One X] ontzaboy:
No effect to the issue unfortunately :(
[HTC One X] matt95:
You can try to wipe the internal storage
[HTC One X] ontzaboy:
No easy way huh? :D I´ll wipe everything and see if that helps.
[HTC One X] ontzaboy:
Okay to clear things out, I wiped everything, literally everything and installed ROM again with a full wipe and now everything works again :)

Still can't understand what caused the problem though. :confused:
[HTC One X] matt95:
wipe solves everything everytime :) remember these words... maybe there was a corrupted file that was causing that
[HTC One X] ontzaboy:
Haha yeah maybe :)

I followed some instructions to organise FAT32 mode on a 64gb class 10 genuine sandisk card (I've checked / benchmarked) so that CWM would work on it.

Problem is, Winamp for example is taking FOREVER to load the thumbnails for my music located on the SD card :/ It's like there's a slow disk access problem.

Is this a known isue? Have I done something wrong?

Any thoughts on this?

[HTC One V] johnpetrucci:
Hello, after applying the 4.1.2 GSM PRIMOU AOKP ROM ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1882990 )my phone was stuck in a boot loop. What happened was I followed this guide:

http://www.theandroidsoul.com/aokp-for-htc-one-v-gsm-installation-guide/

Well It wasn't that exact guide, but it was quite similar. The only difference was that after you install the files, you flash the boot img. What I did wrong first was install the files and since I was in the recent CWM the only way to go back was to reboot. SO what happened was that it got past the HTC screen, but it got stuck in this "INITIALIZING SWAGGER" screen. After about 20 minutes I forcefully shut off the phone (held the power button until the buttons flashed like 10-15 times and shut off)

After this, I redid the upgrade, but I followed the guide I posted above. This time it did not get past the HTC boot up screen. All I see now is that whenever I start it up, it goes to the HTC logo screen and then to the HTC logo screen with the red text and stays in a loop. And when I applying the upgrade I did wipe the data.

Here is what I have tried so far:

- nandroid backup/restore, it does not work. I made the backup before I did anything with the ROM. After doing the restore, I am still stuck in the same HTC logo red text boot loop :(

- I tried reinstalling the ROM multiple times, no solution.

What I hope will save me:

-I have not done the RUU yet. BUT here is the problem. I have a fairly new plan with rogers (still 2 years to go). The HTC One V is from koodo, but I bought it from someone and it came unlocked. All the RUUs I have seen are for telus or do not apply. I am wondering that if I do the RUU and my phone is locked to koodo/telus, and somehow my nandroid backup works after this, will the phone be unlocked (because I have to use rogers)? Or do I have to pay money to get it done =( ?

-also I can connect another phone with the micro SD HC. So I might be able to put files onto it and then try stuff on the bricked phone.

-my nandroid backup might just have something wrong with it, I'm also guessing that the countless "wipes" I have performed with each attempt to get the ROM installed probably doesn't do anything to the recovery. HOPEFULLY there is another "stock" nandroid backup that may work for me (as I can access the microsd).

Another few things to note:

- I didn't do anything with the "Latest boot.img" - I installed the "boot-TK-USB-CM10-OC-VDD-201210112240.img" but I didn't use it... It might be the reason this didn't work for my GSM phone.

The phone info on HBOOT:

- *** UNLOCKED ***

- PRIMOU PVT SHIP S-ON RL

- HBOOT - 1.18.0000

- RADIO-3831.19.00.120

- eMMC-boot

- Jul 2 2012, 20:51:45

Someone please help. This is causing me much distress. Any ideas are welcome. If anyone can even point me in the right direction with the nandroid backup or RUU (but also keep in mind my dilemma with rogers and unlocking the phone) that would also be great. Thank you in advance.
[HTC One V] maxwen:
What does this mean?

Have you flashed the kernel or not?

You MUST flash the kernel using fastboot

fastboot flash boot boot-TK-USB-CM10-OC-VDD-201210112240.img
[HTC One V] johnpetrucci:
WOW. Thank you. I will do this right away. The guide told me to extract a file "boot.img" from the ROM itself... I'm guessing this bricked my phone.
[HTC One V] johnpetrucci:
It worked!! Thank you so much!!! The guide didn't specify to download 3 files (one being the boot.img with the really long name) and said the dw just the 2 zip files. You are a life saver!! Also can you explain to me how the overclocking works? As I used the OC boot.img

[Asus Transformer TF700] Reggie777:
I'm trying to root my tf700, and although I have Unknown Sources checked, and the USB debugging checked, I still get the error that it needs to be turned on. And then I get the daemon is not running message. Is there another way to root my Infinity?

Also, my Build is 9.4.5.21, so I'm thinking of nvflash. The problem is that although I've unlocked the bootloader, I still see I have a firmware update pending. I'm afraid to install the upgrade, lest it moves me to the later build, and thus prevents me from using nvflash.

Can anyone offer some help on my inability to root? And advice on the firmware/nvflash situation? Thanks...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Which root process are you trying to use?

1click root or debugfs?

Coming from the ground up
[Asus Transformer TF700] Reggie777:
Thanks for the reply. I'm using the dbugfs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Sometimes switching usb plugs on the PC works.

I know a lot of folks in the forum have said that trying on a different PC also works.

Are you working with Win7 or XP or something different?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Reggie777:
It says Daemon isn't running. And then next screen it says Rooting failed. System partition was not found

I'm using Windows 7.

Please excuse the stupid question.. but should the tablet be on a certain screen while this is going on? Or should it be off?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
I suggest you re install android SDK. Download from here. Only install packages with android in it (should be 2)

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Hmmm,

The tab should be on and connected as MTP I believe.

Is the tablet seen when clicking on the computer icon or in explorer?

Also check device manager to see if the tab shows up in there.

If the tab is plugged into a front USB (if using a Desktop PC) try a port on the back if available.

Oops edit!

Did you try downloading and installing the PCSuite from the Asus website?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Reggie777:
I did the SDK install.... no difference. It is showing up on the PC. But I have not downloaded the PCSuite from Asus, since I've been afraid of going there, and getting tied up with the Sync issue. I had read that if I had the sync on, they can track the tablet along with reading the info, and even doing some extreme things if they felt I deserved it. :eek: I didn't know if I was supposed to register it before I unlocked it. or what. The odd thing is that I have unlocked it successfully.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Reggie777:
i've also moved the usb connector to different ports but with the same result. I do notice, that now, it says after saying daemon is not running, that daemon started successfully. But then, it says Rooting Failed.... System Partition could not be found.

Is it possible to install nvFlash on an unlocked device, but one that is not rooted? :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Lemme see here...

Ur right clicking the .bat file then running as admin then?

Nerves of steel is right. I'm about to try the procedure on another computer. Hmmmm. Is the sync app from Asus relatively safe to use? someone said it worked for them after they installed it.

If I'm sweatin' it now,... can you imagine how I'm a tremblin' with the nvFlash install ahead of me? :(

My ol' gTablet never gave me this much stress. :highfive:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Man I know...I was always afraid to do anything at first.

I was pretty afraid of a 500 dollar lesson gone wrong...then one day I said "what the hell man up"

Seems like PC Suite is the only way in certain cases.

Was wondering if you had seen this thread...

I was reading thru the debugfs thread and there it was.

Forgot all about it...there's got 2 be an answer.

We need to get you fixed up!

Coming from the ground up
[Asus Transformer TF700] Reggie777:
I'm Rooted!

Whew!... Thanks to all who responded and pointed me in the right direction. It was not pretty. I encountered a number of errors. I'll list them below, in case anyone else is having the same problem/s I had.

1. After you choose "1" from the debugfs menu, it ends up saying "Rooting failed. System partition was not found." Check to see if the device is being seen. How you do this is go to the same directory you unzipped the files you downloaded, and start a command line from this directory. The question was how? Press the Shift key, while right clicking on the directory where adb.exe is, and you will get a window with a prompt. This is a very useful window. type "adb devices", and you should see some datafline" and then a code number followed by "device". Naturally, mine was not there. If this is not there, type " adb kill-server" Then "adb device", and hopefully, if the stars align correctly. You will see your device there with it's code. If not, then you have to check the device manager, and check the drivers. To do this... Go to the start box in lower left of window bar, and type "device manager". The file will be listed, click on it. and you should see your device listed. I found it twice.. once by itself using, and again under Portable Devices. I clicked on these, and updated the drivers to the ones in the same directory with the files you unzipped. Hopefully that will work. If it doesn't you might have to uninstall them, and reinstall them.

2. After all that, you still might not get past option 1 in the menu. Possible error, "more than one device found". So, you have to check if anything else is interfering. [I'm not sure if this was the culprit but as soon as I removed my Zunes, I was good to go].

3. And then option 1 gets a little further along and goes off to never never land. So... I moved to option 2, Manual entry of the partition. It warns you to not go into this section if you are not sure. Naturally, I shook off my cold sweat and plunged ahead. The address I used, from another post was "/dev/block/mmcblk0p1", and that seemed to work.

4. Then.... the app got stuck trying to reboot the device. You can check if it is seeing the tablet by the "adb devices" check. If is not, you have to fiddle with the drivers again.

5. Finally, after a number of tries, and a lot of colorful venting... it went through... and I was rooted.

Whew! It was ugly... But finally. :fingers-crossed:

I relate my story to encourage anyone who might be discouraged by the roadblocks. Hang in there, and as they say... "Never Give Up. Never Surrender!"

Now to tackle installing nvFlash. I have my blankie all ready.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
AWESOME!

Way to go slugger!

So was another media device "Zunes" plugged up in another port?

You have done well!

It's pretty fulfilling to wind thru all this and come out with a desired result.

Thanx for the low down.

It will mean a lot to others having trouble.

nvFlash adventures...

Again, thanks to the wonderful support from the wonderful folks here.:highfive:

Just to end on an even higher note, I wanted to add that I was able to install nvFlash, and generate my "Resurrection Files". I don't know if this is allowed on this forum to include a link, but I followed this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3ypzUaKxvo&feature=colike

which seemed to anticipate some of the very same roadblocks I encountered. So, now, I can look about that "firmware update" notification that keeps flashing in my bar.

[HTC One X] BlazeHN:
Hello friends from xda.

I bought my HTC on Amazon:

Amazon.com: HTC One X S720e Cellphone - No Warranty - White

When I got it I toke it to my phone company (Claro Honduras, 1900 band) agency to cut my regular shape SIM into a Micro Sim shape, but it didnt works, (I noticed the phone still can see the SIM Toolkit options) but no network at all. Then I toke it to the competency company (Tigo Honduras, 900 band) and they cut a regular shape Sim too and it worked without problem. But I need to use my Claro company as a must. I went to three different agencys and Claro people couldnt help me. I have tried like 5 differente Claro Sims and any of them worked, I tried those Sims at other phones and they worked, the problem is only with my HTC One X.

Writed HTC and they asked me to do a factory reset, wich didnt solved the problem, then they asked me to send the phone to Bogota for check. The Amazon seller also says the phone have no problem.

Im so frustrated since i have this amazing phone and cant really use it and I cant find any way to solve it. Plz guys halp! =(

Thanks a lot in advance!
[HTC One X] matt95:
maybe they cut wrong your SIM damaging it
[HTC One X] smash_07:
Some SIM cards have larger chips and are not suitable to be cut to Micro-SIM (older ones usually). When those larger chips are cut they break the connectors and the card will not work. Maybe that's what happened with your SIM card.

Only recent SIM cards that have smaller chips are suitable to be cut. Can you post a photo of your SIM cut so we can see if the chip has been cut as well?
[HTC One X] deakodude:
It can also be the sim card tray that is faulty which mine was sent back to HTC who replaced it under warranty.
[HTC One X] BlazeHN:
Well the SIM is not damaged as far as I know, because I have tried them in other phones and works normally, then try it on my HOX and "No Service"

Im attaching an image with the Claro (light blue with red, not working one) Sim and the Tigo (dark blue, working one) Sim. Both of them were cut from normal Sims and both of them works at other phones. I also tried another Claro Sim with a bigger golden contact shape and didnt worked neither. Also tried a not cutted Micro Sim (the ones that comes already with that shape) from an Iphone on Claro and didnt worked neither.

About the Sim Card Tray that sounds like something, but just gotta add that the Tigo Sim works perfectly with the Sim Card Tray as it is now. Also with the Claro Sim on I can see the features from the Claro company on the Sim Toolkit application.

Any more ideas guys? Plz :S

Thanks a lot.
[HTC One X] motumbo:
Yo creo que tu problema no es el chip, es con el operador, en este caso Claro. Si aparece «no service» es porque efectivamente está leyendo el chip pero el operador no deja que el teléfono se registre, cuando no puede leer el chip dice simplemente «no SIM». Debes ir directamente al servicio técnico de Claro, probablemente tengas que registrar el IMEI del teléfono para que lo deje activar.
[HTC One X] BlazeHN:
Gracias amigo, ya fui a 4 agencias diferentes incluyendo la principal. La gente que atiende parece no tener idea y solo se limitan a hacerme una "reposicion de chip" y al ver que eso no funciona ya solo me dicen que el telefono no esta desbloqueado, cosa que yo se no es así.

Me da la impresion que si podria ser algo asi, pero al menos la gente de escritorio que atiende en Servicio al Cliente no parecen tener ni idea de que hacer y al parecer uno solo tiene acceso a tratar con ellos. =/

EDIT: Acabo de hablar con un amigo que trabaja en Claro comentandole lo que me sugeriste motumbo sobre el IMEI, me dijo que mañana intentará ayudarme con eso. Te actualizo de cualquier cosa si eso lograra solventar el problema.
[HTC One X] doom_71:
In english please. This is an international forum.
[HTC One X] motumbo:
We're just talking about this is a mostly a carrier issue. I've a lot of experience traveling and swapping sim cards in many android phones I had before (X10, Inspire, Infuse, GNote, SGS3), right now I own a HOX and I haven't had any issue with it regarding sim swapping so I guess this could be just the carrier is not allowing his phone to get registered into the network.

By the way if you go to Settings>Mobile Network>Network Operator and you try searching operators with Claro Chip installed what happens? Does it say something like: It is not possible to get registered to the network? If so then your phone is reading the chip but the problem is just carrier.
[HTC One X] XxVcVxX:
Or maybe your carrier is using a band that is not supported by the hox

Please try (with patience) sticking thin paper/plastic plates on the back of the sim card to thicken it. This problem occurred after 3-4 months use. Since I unlocked the bootloader HTC decline to repair for free. After raising a complain to the consumer council, they replaced the motherboard for me free of charge. But your case seem different since it s no warranty at the beginning? (But I think your local HTC repair center would still repair it .. with or without maybe $40-50 international repair charge ....?)

[HTC One X] smash_07:
Was your sim card like this:

SIM card 1

http://www.internationalstudent.com/images/simcard.jpg

Or

SIM card 2

http://www.satphone.com/media/catal...972d/i/r/iridium-satellite-phone-sim-card.jpg

If it your SIM card was like the first one befone cut then it was ehen it was cut that the chip was broken. Only when the SIM card is like the 2nd one it suitable to be cut.

Or else you can have a bad SIM tray or motherboard.

Hello.

We in Slovenia actually had same problem. I bought unlocked HOX in France but it didn't work with my carriers micro SIM (carrier Mobitel). But it worked with my friends SIM from other carriers (Simobil and Tusmobil). So I returned HOX to France seller and bought HOX from Simobil carrier (Mobitel wasn't selling them). My SIM from Mobitel couldn't be recognized in this new device. I started to read forums and all ppl with Mobitel SIM had same problem with unlocked HOXs.

I took it to HTC repair center but they had no idea what could be wrong. And that I should wait for OTA update that was comming in few days. In a week when OTA came everything was resolved.

And few days later my carrier Mobitel started selling HOX. It was actually problem in HOX software.

On forums in Slovenia I saw maybe 20 ppl with same exact problem.
