I see you went through procedure of yet again trying to revive Desire Z, so to avoid the same trouble, I would ask you - is it possible to use it, today ? What custom rom and software combinations could make it at least usable ?

I would like to have phone/sms and eventually Viber. Nothing more than that, so any advice would be appreciated.

[HTC Wildfire S] lokocool:
Hi,

I just woundring if after unlock bootloader with HTCDEV is it possible to back to factory state with *** LOCKED *** status of bootloader again.

I think that it's not possible, but many times I read here on XDA it coud be done.

I know that it's a tool to lock bootloader from CWM - but if we LOCKED bootloader from CWM after that we can't reflash bootloader to oryginal HTC ( becuse it's LOCKED ).

If we first reflash bootloader to stock ( by fastboot) one we can't use this tool.

So the last way to lock bootloader is to RELOCK it afrer flash ROM --> BOOTLOADER --> USB FASTBOOT, and after that we have factory state phone, but the status of bootloader is RELOCKED.

Am I Right ? There is no another way to LOCK bootloader after unlocking to use OTA ?

I'm just curious.
[HTC Wildfire S] UncleLester:
If your wanting to relock the bootloader I would flash to a stock Rom using fastboot and relock after that.
[HTC Wildfire S] lokocool:
No no no... I know that I Can flash stock rom + stock recovery and after that relock bootloader with fasboot.

But after that bootloader show to us as RELOCKED.

My question is - Is it possible to do this an get LOCKED status of bootloader again ?
[HTC Wildfire S] lokocool:
OK it is possible :)

I just do this on my phone... :)

BLTOOL in recovery --> option 4 SUPERVERSION--> make goldcard --> on goldcard inster lastest ROM.zip from RUU ( temp from windows ) reboot --> and we have stock rom with stock recovery and ***LOCKED*** status.
[HTC Wildfire S] UncleLester:
What locking tool you using? That seems long to get locked status.

I know this is not a phone but I locked a bootloader today on a Nexus 7 by using the same shell I unlocked it with.

I might be getting my wires crossed sorry if I am. Glad you got it sorted though.
[HTC Wildfire S] lokocool:
I used this tool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1530864

by the shell on WFS You can lock bootloader using the same metod like before to unlock of course , but when you do this the bootloader status will be **RELOCKED** not **LOCKED**, so of course RUU and OTA update will works fine but Warranty is lost.

If you lock bootloader with this tool ( superversion option ) phone status will be **LOCKED** and you be able to flash stock ROM and stock bootloader.

now i can not enter to android to use ABD, just to hboot screen or recovery, i can't restore or backup

how can i fix it?

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Its is common not to be able to restore back ups made of one hboot to another as partitions have changed. You should have adb access in recovery and hopefully fastboot access within bootloader. I suggest doing a bit of reading here first

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F34RCON:
I have been reading these forums ALL day, i have a factory cable and ive done everything I can think of as of now.

Earlier today I pulled the battery out of my kindle fire and put a dead one in its place (not knowing it was dead of course). After I realized the battery was dead I put the old one (100%) charged back in.....thats where everything went HORRIBLY wrong..

When I turn it back on it just goes to the boot screen "Kindle FIre" (non animated), stays there for about 10 to 15 seconds and then flashes and goes right back into the same exact screen. I can get it to go into fastboot with the flashing green traffic light (using my factory cable) but the problem is windows will not identify the device, its listed under the device manager as unknown. when I manually pointed it to the Andoid ADB driver it says error 10 (the device failed to start

I am completely lost, Idk what to do and if anybody can help me I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thanks

There is just one Boot animation... No different kernel or system boot animation

To change that you will have to change the .rle file from kernel ramdisk

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jarredw:
You can use TB for all downloaded apps. I wouldn't use it to back up system apps as it causes problems when used if different roms. I would buy mybackup pro. It will let you backup contacts sms mms phone logs dictionary and a few others. Between those 2 backups the only thing you'll have to "setup" would be your home screens if your not using nova or apex. I use apex which let's me backup my screens so I can flash a new rom and within 20 min my phone will look as it did before the new flash minus any new features the rom might have
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skubacb:
As much as some people are changing ROMs I wondered about this. I went through TB and turned off the restore on all the system apps. Quite a pain. So now I will stop it from backing up the system apps in the first place. I am using GO and it allows me to backup the screens.

Was hoping there was some magically quick method that did it all. Guess 20 mins is best.

Thanks for the answer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Can backup and restore all data and system apps + data. Do not restore system data. That is different from system app data.. Do not use the option to restore system data. Data to any app is fine whether it be data or system app. There is no difference between system and data apps except that system apps are not as easily deleted. All roms have the same basic system apps. If you want an app to stay in rom regardless of data reset you move it to system. Apps in system are not removed by a data reset. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skubacb:
Thanks for the help. I turned off backing up system apps. When doing this I noticed that TB can make a zip file of the backup. That should be sweet. Couldn't we have ROM Manager burn the ROM and then install the TB zip.

If the above would work this could make life much easier since I would not then have to install TB find the backup and then install it. Everything would already be reinstalled.

Hi!

I had repair microUSB on my Captivate and then got Encryption Unsuccessful.

After EU I made repartition on sd card and flashed to Android 2.3 , and got that 3G and GPS doesn't work.

after I flashes Paranoid ROM, 3G GPS the same.

EDGE and WIFI working well.

What I can do to restore 3G , GPS ?
[Captivate General] BWolf56:
You most likely don't have the right APNs. Go look under Settings -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names. And make sure they matches your carrier's APNs (which you can find with a quick google search).
[Captivate General] m1batt1:
Also consider looking at different modems. GPS is directly effected by the modem you are using and depending on your carrier that you're using the phone on it could potentially effect that too.

Regardless if you are using this phone on T-Mobile then you likely won't get 3G regardless of what you change on the phone unless you are lucky enough to be in an area where they have updated their service.
[Captivate General] aVirginGirl:
I'm using right APN.

[Captivate General] aVirginGirl:
Anybody can make a backup efs and send me, please?
[Captivate General] BWolf56:
Actually doesn't work that way. Your efs folder is specific to your phone as it contains your IMEI. If you get from IMEI error, going back to stock KK4 is the solution. Once in there, you use a file explorer with root rights (like ES File Explorer or Root Explorer) to copy it somewhere safe. Then you can flash Corn kernel and get back on the ROM you wanna use.

To make things clear, there's an error log on such tools. You'll see where it went wrong. Read it.

but where :)

then perhaps that turkish 20d has a strangle of codes if previous V20's had no problems.
