[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
I have an Desire Bravo.

I used AlphaRev to S-OFF and Unrevoked to root the phone.

I then installed Cyanogenmod 7

All went OK until I realised that the phone was locked to Orange.

I've tried just about everything I can find on the net.

Here are the details when I boot up:

BRAVO PVY4 SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT 0.93.0001

MICROP 051d

Radio 5.17.05.23

Things I have tried.

Updated radio to above.

Flash PB99IMG and PB99IMG_cm7r2

Get CID incorrect

Installed HTC Sync and ran RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe

(not sure if this works with S-OFF)

HTC Sync and the RUU do not see the phone.

Any ideas?

TIA
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Wait, so what are you trying to do? Flash a RUU?

To flash a RUU, you either use a goldcard, or install the 2.3 RUU, which is unbranded.

Or are you trying to unlock your phone? Here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=943726
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
I paid for an unlock code in the hope that it might work. I can enter the code, which is accepted, but this happens each time the phone is started. And no network available.

I tried the unlock method you mentioned but I get an error when running it. Sieempi has not replied to my request for help, so I think this a a deadend.

The idea is to get the phone back to a stock rom so that I can unlock the phone using the code I purchased.

I didn't think you could make a goldcard for a phone that is running cyanogenmod. Is that true? A link would be appreciated.

Is the RUU I tried unbranded? Where can I get the 2.3 RUU for my phone? OK found the location if this. I'll give it a try.

Thanks very much for the quick reply.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
I've downloaded 2.3 RUU but cannot install kernel manager on the phone because I don't have access to the market.

Can't find where to get APK from without having to install crapware.

I've installed kernel manager on my other phone but can't find the apk file. Dev Tools says it's in /data/data but that is just an xml file

Something is conspiring against me :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cronus101:
You are conspiring against yourself. Stop complicating matters. When trying sieempi's method, make sure you are on stock and with stock hboot.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
I'm working on getting stock back.

Strangely, the 2.3 RUU program is now recognising the phone, whereas it didn't before. Just waiting for phone to charge up to install it.

UPDATE: Finally got stock rom back. Looked like magic when the HTC logo appeared. And the unlock code I bought worked too. Now I am going to install Cyanogenmod all over again. I'll reply when I have it all working. I'm still not sure why the previous RUU and HTC Sync didn't recognise the phone earlier.

Thanks for the help!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
OK, so I have the 2,3 RUU stock rom working. But Unrevoked 3.32 latest version gives me an error: firmware too new.

I don't think this happened before.

I've looked at quite a few posts to solve this but have not managed to yet.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Use revolutionary.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
OK trying to do that now.

UPDATE: Revolutionary worked inasmuch as it gives me root access.

I then used CWM to flash cyanogenmod, as before (the same file). But every time I start the phone, the cyanogen welcome screen keeps refreshing every 3 or 4 seconds.

FINAL UPDATE: forgot to clear cache and wipe memory first. Duh!

Once simple mistake (not unlocking phone before rooting) and many hours later ...

Thanks once again. Everything working. Nice to have a backup phone.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewedmondson:
Just one last problem that I didn't spot.

I flashed the latest gapps in Recovery but I cannot see any new app

SOLVED this problem. I was using the newtalk version of gapps. This doesn't work. Use the other version here:

[HTC Droid DNA] Nyxagamemnon:
Just wondering is the 94% charge normal on the dna?
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
No...
[HTC Droid DNA] norsepriest:
If that is max charge, no. Your best bet is to let it discharge for a bit, then plug in and start again. Repeat this a few times at 15 minute intervals. If that doesnt work try clearing battery stats.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quetzalcoatl:
Is there a way to get the stock sense camera app on AOSP roms?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] roids87:
No. Sense is deeply wound into the framework. If it was even close to feasible it would have already been done. If that's what your looking for, your best bet is to "remove" sense from what ever ROM you want to run.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Or you could convince HTC to release the info that's needed.:D:p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
Like that'll happen lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I love aosp but the only thing that's preventing me from running it is the camera. I'm in love with the sense camera, therefore i'm tethered to sense...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quetzalcoatl:
Meh.

I dont use my camera often enough to run sense all the time.

I'll just leave a sense nandroid on my SD and restore to it when I know I'll be using my camera (at concerts lol)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sinistertensai:
It can be done I have a method in mind. Just can't compile that method yet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] syaoran68:
I'd try the new 4.2 camera. it works similarly to the sense camera and can do everything it can do. 8mp, video, SS during video, panorama, etc etc.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quetzalcoatl:
That would be amazing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I'd die if you could do that

smart connect

Hi guys,

have you tried to turn off anything in Smart connect application. I stopped him this morning and since then my phone works without reboot. Before that I had had 3 reboots for 20 minutes.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Snoopimaru:
Does anybody know if this problem will persist after rooting and flashing a custom rom/kernel?

I'm at the point where I want to try that, but I'm worried about voiding my warranty.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] :
Re-flashing the stock rom will not fix this problem. Also, service center repairing will only fix it for a week or two and the problem will occur again. Replacing the battery is the only permanent solution. Faulty battery protection circuit is the cause of this random reboot/shut off problem.

[Nexus 10 Accessories] hoseman1979:
I've searched about a bit and found no info on whether or not the Pogo charger will work with specific cases. Specifically for me, I just received a Poetic Revolution case and took note of the relatively small opening around the Pogo port. If anyone has both a Revolution case and a Pogo charger, would you mind telling us whether these accessories work together nicely? Also, information about the compatibility of other cases with the Pogo charger may be helpful to others looking to buy one thing or another.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] Ken401:
POGO cable + Poetic hardback is a winner for me! The cut out for the connector is perfect.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] noobineer:
I have the moko keyboard case, and am using it now. I have not received my Pogo charger yet. The cutout for the connector is only in the material that holds the tablet inside the case. There is no cutout for the Pogo cable in the backbone or spine of the case. The case is minimal in size. While I do not believe that making a cutout would be hard, I believe the Pogo connector will get in the way of how the tablet is propped up.
[Nexus 10 Accessories] johnyguy:
Poetic slimbook case works perfectly! I have it.

So i've hesitated on rooting for a while now, but i finally did today. Now i'm looking for some good roms to flash, and i notice that a lot of N7 owners use PA. I want to know why? I tried CM10 and its pretty cool
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaptainBromo:
Eh. I didn't like it. I had to RMA my tablet because the touchscreen was bein' cray.

But the interface of the rom? 10 points. Amazing. So fluent... it is a hybrid ROM that let's you use the tablet in tablet ui. And switch between stock, tablet, and phablet. I loved it.

Tldr;I hated it. I loved it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rebel1699:
The best thing to do is read the op for the pa rom and note the features it lists. All roms have their features listed to help you decide. Also, read other users comments within the thread to see what they are saying. It is all there waiting for you to read.

And for future reference, questions belong in the Q&A sub forum, not general.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Censura_Umbra:
I agree. PA has never felt as stable for me as CM. And I find that I prefer my tablet in portrait mode now, so I don't care about hybrid apps (plus the mail ones like email work proudly now)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Euforeik:
I just tried it out and it was really unstable for something I would use everyday. I use SmoothROM and it is really stable. I put tablet UI and its perfect for my preference. It's all up on what people really want from their Nexus I guess.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
Gotta disagree, as mods have gone on record stating that something such a that is outside of the scope of the Dev forum and against the rules. Replies in those threads are supposed to be limited to those relevant to development of the rom, such as bug reports. Asking a question of this nature in a Dev thread is only going to make it harder for folks to find relevant info in the thread.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damagedgoods:
I've been running PA on my N7 for a while now. Had 2.54 (the last 'stable' release) on my old 16GB and it was great. When I broke that one I got the 32GB and the first thing I flashed was PA 2.99 beta. Now running the 14-01-2013 beta build and for me its flawless. I love tablet UI and the ability to change the layout of individual apps and to set DPI to 160. PA Colours let's you choose custom colours for Nav bar, buttons etc. Its smooth and stable. Its like another device entirely. I even bought their Preferences Pro app to support the project and I'm eagerly awaiting P.A. 3

Combined with M-Kernel a30 and Trickster Mod I'm running at 1.9Ghz Max CPU and 600mhz GPU.

Its beastly. NFS:MW flies! Lol
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragid10:
So i actually tried PA, and besides the launcer FC it was nice. Though i did switch back to CM10.1
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damagedgoods:
This is a known fault. Its easily sorted by installing a 3rd party launcher although I believe it is fixed in the new build (which I'm just about to flash)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragid10:
Honestly i think i'd love to flash a PACman rom. Then i wouldn't have to go back and forth flashing PA, and CM10.1
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt.one:
tbh-

tabletUI / combined status bar = makes the device feel so much bigger screen-wise

tabletUI's YouTube app = absolute sex.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YayYouFixedIt:
I've no idea at this stage. The screen was all messed up when I tried it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raverbunny:
Tried a lot of different roms when I 1st got my Nexus, settled on PA as I liked the level of customizations, used to run tablet UI, but with the new PIE, combined with nova launcher pro makes the UI so different to anything else I tried. Combined with M-kernel and it runs buttery smooth here.

But hey, each to their own, it comes down to what u want out of a rom, and also keep in mind the popular custom launchers work across all (most?) roms
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaptainBromo:
Well I was walking around my house with tablet in hand, and my Nexus was scraped against a corner of a wall(with the case on), and it got a white streak on the corner of the case.

Hi :)

this is my first post here and im new into Android world, not even a month with my S3, have a bit of patience, sorry if im going to make such obvious questions that sound a bit "stupid" to experienced users, but i need to know exactly what to do, and i have to understand :)

first of all i like reading, i already took a look at about twenty different ROMs/ and read about Root.

i think you'll need my device infos:

here are my questions, ill try to explain better as i can:

read about some ROMs that add sound plugins like Dr.Dre Beats/Sony Xperia, can i get same results as these ROMs installing AC!D Audio Engine?

in order to install AC!D Audio Engine, have i to root my device?

do i need to install TriangleAway in order to use my rooted device?

i read about red ! mark issue on new firmwares/bootloaders, will i get that if ill root my device?

i read about twenty ROMs changelog/feedback, if ill decide to install one, i dont know which one to start, candidates are: Omega - Jelly BAM - Android Revolution HD 18. can you help me getting the right one?

some ROMs install custom kernel while others prefer using the stock one. can i install ROM with stock kernel?

do i need to install a custom recovery? i read TriangleAway developer said he's moving away from custom recovery because not so compatible with ROMs

thank you for your time and for helping me :)

EDIT:

reading about eMMC bug, tried eMMC bugcheck app, it shows:

reading here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2096045 only VTU00M 0xf1 2012/04/13 are bugged, so mine is okay because is 07/2012 isnt it? moreover app shows "No, Sane chip", right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikradex:
New here. (also apologies for probable duplicate topic)

I've rooted a phone in the past with no problem. This time round was with an S2, and I flashed an insecure kernel on it, got a green pass on Odin however it's now stuck on the boot screen with the yellow triangle.

I can access recovery mode and download mode but it will never boot properly, always stuck on the yellow triangle. What's the best course of action from here?

Need a lot of help with this guys as I'd rather not have a bricked phone ><
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Seriously dude? Use some common sense please and give relevant information on what you have. What model/variant do you have, rom are you on, what kernel have you flashed?

How do you expect anybody to be able to help you if you dont give such basic info??? :confused:

Are you sure the kernel supports the rom/version you have installed?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Maybe because you wiped all data....so...there's no ROM to boot up to.

Try flashing one via Odin :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
Wiping data doesnt wipe rom :eek:, It just wipes appdata, ie settings etc. All that happens is a factory reset so when you next boot its back to default. For example you would need to re-enter google account and re-install apss either manually or from a backup.

You can only wipe rom by formatting system partition.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Thought you had me in ignore.

So there's no way you can wipe your OS via recovery? Good to know that, it's like ROM over ROM then. The new one clears the old one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
I did have you on ignore but I still see little boxes saying this comment has been ignored etc which was actually more annoying so I removed ignore.

Yes you can wipe OS via recovery but only by formatting system/deleting partition etc. All the "wipe" options do is remove files that have been created by rom like app settings/cache etc.

Your confusion was probably also the reason why you made a big thing in a previous topic about you trying to avoid wiping data, because you thought it wiped rom? :silly:

Wiping data/factory reset in cwm is one of the best ways to get rid of system issues, Its basically like doing a clean install of Windows on a PC. After you have wiped you can simply restore your needed apps from a backup using Titanium Backup. Other things like sms/mms etc can be also backed up easily and contacts will be synced via Google account.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
hum...okay.

I actually know what Factory Reset does, I mean..."factory"..."reset", kinda......gives it away.

And yes, it made sense to me that you could wipe the ROM you are on before installing a new one, just like the format c:/s days in win98.

You learn something every day, speaking of which, how come no one recommends noobs to root their device with exynos abuse? It's because they're noobs and wouldn't be able to handle/understand the exploit?

I still don't do factory resets because I don't need to, and I avoid needing to perform it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikradex:
Thanks for the reply :) Figured if someone was willing to help me I'd give them the information they wanted.

Have Samsung Galaxy S II (GT-I9100) (couldn't tell you what "variant" it is). I was following this guide. It told me to get an insecure kernel from here. The guide said it didn't really matter which kernel I picked so I picked the first one (GT-I9100_BGKF5_insecure) and used Odin to flash it. Got a green pass and the phone began reboot but it's now stuck on the yellow triangle (the warning message that you've flashed an insecure kernel).

I couldn't tell whether there would be compatibility issues as the thread just seems to be one big list of kernels and nothing else. AFAIK the phone was running ICS.

Looking at the replies, I keep seeing factory reset. Is that a liable option to restore my phone back to its original state. I don't care as long the phone works again. If not can someone run through how to fix my predicament :) I heard if I can access download and recovery mode I should be able to fix it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Of course, you're not bricked yet.

Before trying your back up, why don't you flash a stock ROM via odin and take a long breath?

This is JB leak.

These are ICS, look for 4.0.3 unbranded.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikradex:
