LOL. That made me laugh :p

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
ok. i've ran through this thread a dozen times or more. i have all the files and the correct setup. and the correct PG06IMG zip. no zip.zip. i ran through the process to it get to the point where you have to run the pg06img through the bootloader. it sees the file on the sdcard (fat32 with no other partitions). it reads the file with a blue bar climbing. then it says checking the file with a brownish colored bar climbing. after it checks it it does nothing but go back to the point where you can choose recovery, etc. i've tried it on two sepparate cards. the first was partitioned swap/ext/fat32. tried another card that has no partitions and reformated it to fat32. same thing.

i'm in a bit of a fix now because i only have the options of bootlooping, or fastboot. this phone was an assurion replacement. it came to me with the latest version of the stock rom. i dont recall the # but after the rom # 2.77.651.8 it had something like 720RD.

i presume -now- this phone came to me with the new htc locks in place.

i dont know if it showed it before, but now the hboot screen has the pink bar with the words ***locked (oow) ***

i'm headed to htcdev now to see if i can unlock it there. i assumed... i know... that this 1-click method did not need the htcdev method ran first. if it is a requirement, a little note in the OP would be grand :D

headed to htcdev now

EDIT....

and i'm back. after that it does the same thing but instead of saying checking, it says parsing, then goes back to hboot.

any ideas?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
ok. i'm downloading the ruu now. i hope the rom.zip extracted from it will let me restore it to the stock state. fingers crossed...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
To fix the bootloop, open a command prompt directory and cd to the folder where "adb.exe" is and run the following (with your phone bootlooping on the 4G screen)

adb shell sh /data/local/tmp/taco.bin --undo

That should remove root, delete all temp files, and make your phone fully bootable again

And no, there is no need to unlock your bootloader with HTCDev before using this...I don't know why the bootloader is not flashing the Froyo PG06IMG.zip, its worked for many other people so you probably missed a step somewhere along the way

The only other reason I can think of is that it was a bad download or something, try checking the md5sum of that file against the one that dev-host gives you
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
outstanding. i'll give that a shot right now. i forgot you can use adb while its booting up.... my fingers are almost bleeding from pulling the sdcard in and out...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
No problem, try that and then give the utility another go again

I'm about to use it on the replacement I just got from Sprint, so if there is something wrong with the program I will find it but its worked for other since I last used it so I doubt its that....but I will look
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
well, it'll be a bit. dang battery's almost dead. go figure.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Oh yeah, charge it up, if the battery died while trying to flash the PG06IMG, that would not be good...

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] kathompson2nd:
Great program and VERY simple to use!! Saved so much time compared to the last time I did this manually! I'm happy to see the community supporting these older devices!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Thanks man :)

I definitely plan on sticking to this device, even after I get my S3 at the end of the month

I will try to bring some ports to the Shift :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
no go. full battery, good connection. gets to the same step and stops.

let me ask this, should it be s-off when the pg06img is flashed? i noticed it's still s-on at that point. loads the file, checks it, parses it, then just stops. i've downloaded the file 3 times now. md5 matches on all 3.

however, i never had the opportunity to run the taco undo command. the next time i rebooted and even now after this attempt, no bootloops. starts normal.

EDIT....

ok. wow. i just noticed my screen will not turn off! LOL. seriously. when it sleeps, the screen dims and goes to the lockscreen but never shuts off. it's not touch responsive during that time. press the power button and it goes to the lockscreen like normal and is responsive. press power button again, and it goes to half-sleep. strange. status bar keeps force closing too.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Well run the tacoroot undo command

And no, the point of the 2.3.4 "root" is that it only allows you to downgrade to 2.2, which IS rootable

So having said that, no unlocked bootloader, S-off, nothing is needed as you get that when you root 2.2
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
ok. i ran the ruu to make sure everything was back to stock. tried it again, same thing. i'm about to run the tacoroot undo. brb
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Ok, run that

The problem is most likely the sdcard though...just yesterday, someone tried my utility and it worked fine for them
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
so i booted into bootloader, recovery, up-down-power, reboot. after it stabalized, ran the taco undo command again. no dice.

tried this with the factory 2GB card, reformated, and an 8GB class 6 card reformatted. both to fat32.

i dont know. it tries reading the pg06img and then just stops. strange. hell, i wish i could mail it to you to see it. :D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jsp254:
by any chance do you know if theirs was locked with the hboot pink-bar like mine? or unlocked using htcdev?i'm going to try this again with an ruu reset, then htcdev unlock, then 1-step. i'm running out of ideas.

next, if the other doesnt work, i guess will be to do the normal root process from the methods you compiled and listed in the op, step by step to see where the error is.

EDIT...

before that, i will try another sdcard. i'll pull the one from my nook tablet, resize and format it with gparted an give that a shot.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Well i just rooted my new shift using this...no issues

Im completely floored by it. I dont know. ive walked back through each step, talking outloud to myself as i did it, like reading a storybook to a 5 year old. Step by step. All I's dotted and T's crossed. Checked md5 sum on each item that had one listed and even compared md5s of each file i downloaded more than once. Every step is there and each file is correct. I think this refurb is haunted.

My wife had hers replaced a while back. Hers is still stock and unrooted. Since mine didnt brick, im going to try it with hers and see if it works. Ill try it tomorrow. 18 hour day at work today. And ive got to get up in 4 hours for a 12 hour day. Oh joy.....

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] SLdK:
heya CNexus,

First off thank you so much for making this. It seems really straight forward but I've come across an issue when using this and its that my bootloader doesn't seem to see the PG06IMG.zip when I'm in recovery.

- I followed all the prereqs

- Filename is named correctly

- I've checked md5 sums.

Could you help me out please? :)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BigSplit:
Back up everything on your sdcard and then reformat your sdcard.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Re: [UTILITY][1.13.13] Shift ROOTility

No problem :good:

First, that white screen is called the bootloader, not recovery ;)

Second, is your sdcard formatted to FAT32? I had a problem with this too when i rooted for the first time ever, it would take forever to recognize the files even though it was formatted to FAT32. However, a reformat of my sdcard fixed this, so try that out ;)

If it doesnt work, we'll work from there

Yup, I also recommend Dreads modified recovery, its just really great

Also, dont panic if it goes into a bootloop when trying to downgrade....thats supposed to happen

Make sure to read the FAQ and ask any other questions if necessary! Thanks for the heads up btw, I'm adding a note about s-off to the OP ;)

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] CNexus:
Re: [UTILITY][1.13.13] Shift ROOTility

Yes, unless you're already on 2.2, then you need an sdcard to be able to downgraded to 2.2
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] gadgetdaddy:
Hello having the same issue as someone else had.

It pretends like its going to do the img file update in the bootloader, but then there is no confirming it, like it should ask.

So something is wrong.

This is the same issue that another user had mentioned back on page 15

I have followed it to a T.

Will now try yet another SDcard (3rd one) to see if it makes any difference and will update my results.

Thanks

EDIT:

No difference. I've tried everything, and something is wrong.

Again, the blue progress bar on the right in the bootloader looks like the img is loading, and then looks like it loads again and then nothing.

Normally you'll see it load the img and then you'll see the bootloader want to update the device and confirm, but nothing. I get nothing.

Please advise?

This is a developers forum. Not random talk and discussion, try to argue with people that follow the rules because they don't suit you, get mad when called out on not following the rules forum. If you read it objectively, you will see its a best kernel/ROM thread. He is asking for your combo of ROM and kernel with the battery life. That is a hidden way of asking what gives the best battery life. It will not work for every person the same. Its subjective to the user. There's nothing with a census of best. Some things work better for some and others it will be terrible. Get over it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kremata:
Asking what ROM is the best might be pointless but asking which ROM people PREFER is different.

Statistic work with the amount of answers. If one person say it prefer ROM "X", it might worth nothing. But if 10000 people say they prefer ROM "X", then it doesn't matter if people use their phone differently. ROM "X" is the most prefered ROM all around.

True that the battery life will differ from individuals because not everybody use the phone the same way but one person use his phone always the same way. I flash at least 3 ROMs a week so I can objectively compare the battery life of each ROM.

You might get different battery life depending on your use, but still you can tell which one give better battery life

I have an TF101 running 4.0.3 stock rom, rooted with ViperMOD.

I have a bluetooth speaker, HMDX Audio HX-P230.

It won't pair with my device.

My tablet will see the speaker, but when I try to pair them it gives me an error: cannot communicate with [bluetooth ID].

Now, I know the bluetooth in my tablet works because I use a PS3 control via bluetooth.

I tried resetting my tablet, and disabling and reenabling the bluetooth.

I made ABSOLUTELY sure Sixaxis Controller was not running or started or active in any way.

I know the speakers work because they will pair with my phone.

So why won't they work together?!?!?!?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterDecker:
I'm going to assume that you have tried the pass code of 0000 when pairing the 2 devices. While they are SUPPOSED to work with "all tablets," the majority of the time the manufacturers think ONLY of a tablet as an iPad, instead of the many Android variants out there. Some tablets in the settings you HAVE to enable audio over bluetooth, while others do it automatically.

Also I've found often times when trying to pair devices the one that you want to pair with i/e your speaker, turn it off wait 15 seconds, turn it back on and make sure that the lights are flashing showing it is searching for a host. Then under the tablet settings have the tablet search for the device, and try to pair with it. It will either do 1 of 3 things. Auto pair without prompting for the pass code, or it will put the pairing on hold until you input the pass code, in this case 0000, or it will fail.

You might have to go into your phone and "forget" the pairing connection with the speaker for it to be able to be found and used by another device.
