[HTC One V] worldindo1:
I know the feeling! You're all excited because you just unlocked your One V's bootloader, flashed a recovery, and flashed a steamin' hot new ROM. You boot up for the first time and get ecstatic, the tension building as you put in your Gmail info. You finish the start up but OH NO!!! Your phone reboots! You blame yourself... you blame your cat... you blame your wife... you blame the war in the Middle East. You think, I must've done something wrong! Stupid, stupid, stupid! Don't fret! Take my experience with this quite seriously (despite the jokes). For 2 weeks, I retraced my steps and tried EVERYTHING! I thought it was just the ROM's problem, so I flashed one after another to the same end. Finally, I decided to post a new thread asking for help. Nothing became of the first thread, so I posted a second one. To my great relief, along trotted Curiousn00b. After shoving me in the correct direction, I figured out the rest. A big thanks by the way, Curiousn00b! The following is the method that I used to get my phone to finally run a ROM. Also, a thanks to CafeKampuchia for the quoted directions below.

A few things to make sure you have:

Windows (with Administrator's priveleges)

Fastboot installed and working

Your phone (duh!)

A USB cable

Time and patience

The following quote is from CafeKampuchia's thread over here.

Solution #1

Thus far you should have the stock recovery back and be bootlocked again. Now, back in fastboot mode, you should already be connected to your computer via USB (if you disconnected, just reconnect it and wait for "FASTBOOT" to change to "FASTBOOT USB")

Run this command:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

Next, start up the RUU program again and let it run through without interruption. After this process is done, the phone should boot up to the stock ROM. Let it do its thing, but this time don't do the OTA update. From here, just unlock the bootloader again, install your recovery of choice, and install your ROM of choice or reroot the stock ROM (I know some want to keep it stock).

As also pointed out by RoyalYeo, you can let HBOOT take care of the problem:

Solution #2

My personal solution (Solution #1) is the more technical side of things and also exposes you to the nitty-gritty. Having said this, #1 is quite touchy because if you do something wrong, there is a good chance that you could... well uh, brick your phone to be quite honest. On the other hand, #1 requires no SD card (given the event that your SD card won't mount, your SD reader is broken, or you just plain don't have an SD card). Ultimately, the choice is up to you.

A note for Mods: I'm not sure if this technically falls under Development or Q&A (or both). If it can stay here in Development, I'll also post a thread in Q&A.
[HTC One V] mkgarrod:
hello there,

So i've followed these instructions and I still get a bootloop... Occasionally when i flashed the MIUI.us rom it will get up to the start out screen... then restart... and do it repeatedly... but at the current moment... it's simply bootlooping on the MIUI logo. I've ran RUU approximately 20 times on this phone... i've tried different SD cards because something is recently they have been randomly disconnecting and not showing up... i Plugged my phone in and set it to Disk Drive mode, wrote files to it... and when i check on my phone... all the files are gone except for the original.. so i preceded to take the card out plug it into my computer and format there... i do that... and all the files show back up when i plug into my phone... ALL the original files that i just formatted... i don't know what steps to take next to get any of it working. I've tried flashing sick kernel and the MIUI rom and still nothing has worked... any assistence would be greatly appreciated, I'm tired of resetting my phone EVERY time i try and flash a new rom

I have a thread here but Everything i have tried there has failed to work but you could use some of the info from there to possibly diagnose?

How do we add apps to the Multi-Task bar. I want to add youtube but it is not an option when I hit Edit? I have seen it in several videos. Do we not get it on Verizon?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] loggainsd:
From what I've seen youtube should be there. Some 3rd party apps may not though. Can anyone that has one already chime in?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mzimand:
From what I have seen in various videos there are several apps missing on my Verizon Note 2's Multi Tasking Dock. In addition to You Tube I have seen Twitter and Chrome, neither are on multi tasking dock and I cannot see how to add them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] chakra:
I think its drag and drop, try dragging them to the bar.

PS I dont have one yet :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mzimand:
I tried dragging but it does not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jocelyn:
You're probably going to have to wait until your phone is rooted, so that you can flash a mod to enable all apps for multi-task view.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] BeansTown106:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hitman3984:
sounds like verizon went and neutered the damn phone, between this and removing blocking mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kest874:
I have the international note 2 and it requires either modifying the framework, or a app that has been written. I'm sure the app can be ported once someone gets root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] leroybrute:
Are you saying you are missing these apps also?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mzimand:
I have to say this is a little disappointing. I love the phone but the 2 apps I wanted for split screen were Twitter and You-tube and neither are not working on the Verizon Note 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sembe80x:
I had the note 2 for sprint and I just got the Verizon one today and they definitely neutured this one. I didn't need root to have these apps on the multi bar. They also r emoved the S-planner. Wtf?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] milew666:
Christ, so.....everyones ****ing answer is always "you have to be rooted" not everyone wants to root their ****ing phone. And how about answering the question? When I click the edit button, the whole screen is taken up and says drop here, drop what? I have no ****ing choices. **** this site. I pay 700 for a phone then im told...root it. **** you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jcollier:
Wow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
No **** you! Why don't you take ten seconds and Google an answer instead of asking to be spoon fed! If you looked there are edits you can do to the apps and apps people have already edited for lazy people like you.

Also the people here are not Samsung or Google. So how is it our fault you can't watch you tube while watching you porn and beating it at the same time (since I'm sure you're a Virgin)?

As for the drag and drop. Use some common sense. There is a bar on the side with apps, hold one and drag and drop it in the open space that SAYS DRAG AND DROP HERE!

Jezz the sense of entitlement on this forum is sickening. I don't care of you dropped a million on the phone no one here gets paid and this is a development Site that is going to suggest root and ROM. By the way for Christ sack try using some form of punctuation, what are you 10?

By the way sorry to the mods and people who respect the work out in here, but attitudes like this d bag piss me off so bad and it seems to be a growing problem around the note2 forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] CAPTainJRacine:
If you read your phones manual, researched, watched YouTube videos of how the feature works you would know how to use your phone at the most basic level. You come to this site to get information beyond what is in the manual.

The reason you get answers of "root" is because many things you want to do beyond the stock software requires it. If you don't want to root then enjoy your phone exactly the way it came out of the box. You have made a decision not to root. Don't get mad when people explain rooting is required for the fix.

And as mentioned above this is a feature that can be fixed by editing apps and installing modified apps without the need for root. But guess what. You need to do some work and decompile and recompile apps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] IamPro:
I was in your position a few days ago, decided to root so I could get Sixaxis then took the plunge so I could get all the toogles and every app in multi window (ie the full Note 2 experience). All I can say is that I am not disappointed :D

It really is pretty easy if you follow directions

Yesterday I flashed the deodexed and debloated Rom for the DNA and no I don't have permission to write to my internal storage, On the Rom thread they said to fix this you have too relock and ruu. I know how to fastboot oem lock but I dont know how to ruu can someone please help as I'm am new to the forums and couldn't post in the development section.
[HTC Droid DNA] Thrillhouse847:
The easier way to fix the problem is to just format /data in recovery then reboot. All of your storage/settings will be wiped but the problem will be fixed. Just make sure to back up your files off of your phone ahead of time.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] csandman1977:
Not sure where to ask this or even who. I had an hd2 and loved the fact that I could run android on it. I switched to a Samsung infuse 4g when I left t-mo.

From my experiences the hd2 ran android (an operating system it wasn't designed for) flawlessly. The infuse devs have jelly bean going but with some bugs that they can't figure out.

My question is why? Is it the kernel (still a gingerbread kernel) or lack of source from Samsung? Just curious how a windows phone can run android better than a native android device.

And I'm not knocking the devs, I'm super lucky to even be off froyo at all. Just curious.

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ph03n!x:
Its the device itself. Though a windows phone, HD2 is very close to Desire and Nexus One. This made it that much easier for our awesome Devs to get Android working really well, along with some great skills and innovative thinking.

That sounds as though your phone isn't actually reaching the facebook page but is being redirected somewhere else. Are you sure it's not something to do with your wifi network? Can you get to facebook OK from a laptop?

I'd expect this sort of thing if you were connected to a hotspot without having logged into the hotspot from the phone.

But the funny part is, it only affected HTC Desire.

Found this problem on other forums too, all Desire's :confused:

And one have tried a factory reset.

Facebook was unreachable a couple of days ago. But I got a message saying that they are doing maintenance. When it came back up, all it had me do is log back in. Everything is fine until now.

I wonder if your issues has something to do with the Facebook integrated on Sense. You guys using Sense roms by any chance?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SmasherDK:
Yes, it is a Sense Rom I'm using..

I have just tried to freeze Facebook for HTC Sense via Titanium Backup, still same problem with "Facebook app"

same problem from same day... i tried few older version of fb app but none works. HTC Desire InsertCoin rom
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannybiker:
Same here since a couple of days. It seems to be a problem on FB side, but in some way related to the software of the phone. I own a Desire with RcmixS Rom Gingerbread. I flashed it with an ICS Rom and it worked after that. Come back to Gingerbread after factory wipe and problem is there again. :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SmasherDK:
But still related to Desire, how weird :confused:

Cause on a Samsung Galaxy S, running 2.3 GB, it's working just fine.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannybiker:
Trying logically to understand why this happens only on Desire with gingerbread (since on my with ICS it was working) and looking at the error I thought it could be a problem of certificates that are not up to date, in this case may be only on a specific android distribution like the one we have on Desire... (app developer are maybe forgetting our loved phone since it's getting older) so I tried to understand how to update this certificates and I've finally found that there are some files where they are stored inside a system directory. :p

Here attached you can download a zip with some certificates I found. To install them you have to put the file on the SD, go into recovery mode and then simply choose to install a zip from SD card. Reboot... My FB started working again! I had tried everything before this without success... so maybe this will work for you too.

Let me know! :fingers-crossed:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SmasherDK:
I BET it's because facebook.com have automatic activated some new security settings, https, and (dont know the english word for it) safe login, where you will receive an sms the first time you log on from a new unit...

I downloaded your zip file, extracted cacerts.bks, cwcerts.zip & otacerts.zip and copied them to my system/etc/security folder, quick restart, and it's WORKING :good:

And I was receiving an sms so that i could log on.

Funny part is, that those certificates looks older than the ones I allready got, but they are a little bit bigger.

But it's working... thank you :laugh:

Contact pictures are back :cool:

I've been having the same problem since Monday, only I don't have a Desire but a Wildfire S. I don't seem to have the system folder on the SD-card nor can I find anywhere else to put the files (I tried putting them in the .android_secure-folder just to try anything and restart but no progress...). Is there perhaps another way to fix this for a Wildfire S? Thank you!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SmasherDK:
Is your mobile rooted?

Don't think you can do it if it's not rooted :confused:

Yeah, I'm happy my solution works for you as well. If you like click me a Thanks on this forum ;)

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------

Yes, having LeeDroid you should already have a cooked recovery... just power off the phone, keep pressed vol - and power... choose recovery with vol buttons and enter with power button. You should be now on you recovery (probably clockworkmod). Choose install zip from SD and select certs.zip you can find on my previous post and that you have to put on your SD. At the end reboot. You should now be able to use FB.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaaaaaahhhhhhhh:
installed the certs and Facebook is now working. :good:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannybiker:
No låvisa, the folder is on the internal memory, but you can't write on it if you are not rooted. You can probably apply the file from the recovery also without root, but you need a cooked recovery. To permanently install the clockworkmod recovery, that is not the stock one and that have more option like the one to install zip, again you would need to be root. Instead I think you can (I've never do it this way, sorry...) install the clockworkmod recovery temporary without root from your stock recovery, just the time to flash my zip.

Here you can find all the available way to install the clockworkmod, look at the update.zip method:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PuffMaN:
It you want to get rid of it, u need to root ur phone and delete it with root explorer or something similar. Unfortunatly there is no other way..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SmasherDK:
Done.. and ty again..

May I ask where you found the files, and how did you find the answer? :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannybiker:
;) As I told you in my previous post, by a logical exclusion... First thing to know was if I was the only one to face the problem and I found you on this forum.

Everybody had the same issue at more or less the same time, so it was related to some common subject, so FB.

The problem was only on Desire or similar age models. So the problem was not generalized to all the FB users otherwise they would have resolved the issue immediately. Furthermore this was not related to the hardware since installing a ICS Rom on my Desire solved the problem. Now the only logical conclusion was to state that it was something related to the software of the oldest android phone as a consequence of a modification on the FB server.

Analysing the error from the FB app I noticed it was talking about Verisign and this was confirming my supposition...so the most obvious thing that can change on a web server and that need updated information on the client side is in fact a certificate (the error also stated that the FB server was not yet reached so there were an intermediary who was blocking the request before FB, and a certificate authority was a logical possibility in my scenario).

At this point I thought that there was a good chance our certificates was not up to date, since they are usually updated with the new releases of Android and we are still with an old version. I then searched a way to update this certificates googleling around and I found a forum where they was talking about CA for issue with mail servers and I found this file. I was confident, but you know, luck is always needed! :fingers-crossed:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F1USGP:
I am having the same problem with my EVO 4G. Where exactly do you put those files?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannybiker:
As I told on post 12 (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34904788&postcount=12) you need to put the zip file on the SD card, where you want, for easy operation put it on the root, then you need to run a recovery like clockworkmod. You should have it already installed if you have a cooked rom otherwise you need to installit either rooting your phone or by following the instruction to install clockworkmod for non rooted phone. Once you are inside the recovery mode (power off the phone then switch it on with vol - and power and choose recovery) you select "install zip file from sd" and you select the zip you downloaded. That's it, you can reboot and it's done.
