Progress Pretty sure they got our responses I also responded on their Facebook
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
I created a flashable zip file to simplify flashing CWM Recovery 6.0.2.8 for those who have have the unlocked bootloader. See Option 1 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46613537&postcount=346
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
Probly something simple, but why am I getting this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
You typed adb shell then used adb push . You only need adb push without typing adb shell first.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
Figured it was something simple, but the wife took her phone and went to bed....LOL. I guess i'll have to steal it back tomorrow. By the way, thanks for all the work you and Sandnap have put in, it's very much appreciated.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
The extra "adb shell" was my fault sorry about that. I fixed it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
I guess I'll let ya slide this time...lol. Like I said up there ^, thanks for puttin in some work for us all. I've been waiting a long time to tweak this phone. Well....it's the wifes phone now, but I know where she hides it!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
Lol, you're welcome, like I said before it's a really cool phone and when I bought it I was surprised that it didn't capture more dev interest. I am an experienced developer with limited Android ROM experience. I have been speaking with [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] and I think our skills l compliment each other quite well. I think good things will happen. : )
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
I'm just waiting on our jb kernel . If you want to continue now let me know. We could use prebuilt until.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
Would we be able to use tour phones existing JB kernel for CM10.2 given that our phone is running android 4.1.2 and CM10.2 is based on android 4.3?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
Maybe , maybe not . I don't know the actual kernel requirements. I know 4.3 needs SELinux and audit thats it . A guy used 4.2.1 kernel for 4.3 so I imagine we could do the same with a 4.1 kernel
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
Well I have CWM Recovery installed on my phone, so if you want to give it a shot I'd be more than willing to flash a rom with my existing JB kernel.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
Not to stray too far off topic, but you are the first person who has reported that they installed CWM (other than myself of course) so I am curious which installation option you went with and were the instructions clear enough? Also, are you on ICS or JB and do you have the unlocked bootloader?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Alekos:
Thanks for posting this! I can now confirm that ROOT works with changing the CHMOD to 4755, not 0755 like was posted first.

Can the OP PLEASE be changed to these new and correct instructions/?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cholzsch:
I am in the same situation.

Running Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit

I downloaded the Universal Naked Driver as instructed, but when I right-click on the .inf's and Install, I get an "Installation Error" pop-up.

If I allow Vista to search for driver, it installs "USB Modem Phone ADB Port"

I can see phone in fastboot, and boot the .img, but then screen goes blank. Forever ... (well, until I pull the battery)

I tried unplugging and replugging and no "new hardware" sound...nothing.

Any ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] brickjr:
The screen is supposed to stay black as long as you're accessing it via fastboot. It won't come back on until you restart the phone after going through all the listed commands. Then if you've done everything right you'll see the superuser app and have root access. Is that what you mean, or am I missing something?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cholzsch:
From the instructions:

It never detects "HTC Device". So, after about 30 minutes, I unplug USB, and plug back in...still, no "Detecting New Hardware". Absolutely nothing happens and I have to pull battery.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

Also, as soon as the screen goes blank, the "USB Modem Phone ADB Port" goes away in Device Manager.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ShotSkydiver:
Hmm... that's really odd. Even if you don't have the proper drivers installed, the computer should still detect a device plugged in. The only thing I can say is keep trying it, possibly with a different computer.

Apologies for the delay. Changed.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wakko222:
Is there no hope?

Is there no hope of a custom rom on this device?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ShotSkydiver:
It doesn't look too great... I was hoping that by starting this thread the phone would have more people working on it, like what happened with the Pantech Burst and Flex... but it hasn't happened yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tcfiser:
adb devices

I am currently just getting stuck on the blackness when I go to boot the img and I was wondering if the fact that when I type in the command "adb devices" it doesn't show me any devices. And if that is the reason then how can I fix that?

P.s., I modified the Naked driver so that it had the Hardware ID for my Pantech P9090 because when I was trying to install it before it gave me an error message saying the driver doesn't have any information related to my device or something to that nature.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cmichaelis:
Same issue - Stuck after fastboot

Hey tcfiser,

I'm encountering the same problem, for what it's worth. Phone is detected by fastboot and I'm able to boot the recovery image - but then the USB device vanishes. Nothing listed under Windows device manager, nothing listed under OSX System Information and nothing listed in lspci in Linux. Thus, I believe the device is truly not there - i.e., the fastboot image failed to actually boot, despite the "OK" from the fastboot utility.

What do you guys think - possible that the recovery-evita.img is just not booting properly? Maybe there was a subtle revision in the latest Discover/Magnus/P9090 that makes the image not work.

Will continue tinkering, but my knowledge is limited. :)

Cheers mate!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] judask24:
This may be s bit out of topic but not many recourse for this phone or support forums. I've noticed something strange on my discover, and it also started on my pantech burst. Both unrooted stock ICS roms. When pulling down the notification bar, its blank for about 5 seconds then it displays all my info. Even the quick settings are blank. It started on my burst and now on my discover. Anyone else have this issue? This may be weird but could it be Sim/network related? Both are running on Straight Talks BYOD. When the Sims are removed, it doesn't do it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shantam:
Try latest radio
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] judask24:
This root guide doesnt work for me either. All is well. Get into fast boot. Run adb devices and it shows my device as magnus. Run the fast boot recovery and as soon as it boots the Evita.img it disappears from device manager and adb devices and Windows never detects a HTC device.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greg97526:
what the heck?

okay, in adb mode it is recognized as MAGNUS01111116027725 but only after i switch from pc data mode to MTP is this right?

in fastboot devices it is recognized as c80883d7 is this right?

when i try and load the recovery this is what i get

c:\Android>fastboot boot recovery-evita.img

cannot load 'recovery-evita.img': No error

what the frack am i doing wrong?

i have uninstalled all drivers and tried the pda net drivers with results being the same.

i tried installing the naked driver but when i right click and choose to install i get

"the INF file you selected does not support this method of installation".
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] judask24:
I leave mine on device storage when ive tried. Yet I've tried all modes and it always disappears when loading .img and it fails to ever show a HTC device.

I also tried the bin4ry universal ICS and JB root which uses the desktop backup and restore loophole which worked like a charm with my pantech flex but it fails to work with the discover. It proceeds to work but never actually does. Both are running ICS 4.0.4 on pretty much the same internals but maybe the Discover lacks this loophole in its software.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greg97526:
Any news on a better way to root the discover?

I can not get this method to work for the life of me.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] judask24:
This seems to be a dead end. Its a shame. This device has such high potential
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greg97526:
any one alive out there?

No way this phone has been given up on.... very nice phone so please help us unlock its potential!

i appreciate ANY help we could get on this or an updated way to root!

thanks in advance
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] abdi7451:
Exactly, was thinking of getting it. But no developer support = no buying. Shame. Such potential. Same thing with Galaxy S II HD LTE from Bell Mobility. Great specs... little developers. But they root method works and they have 2 roms at the moment. They're doing better than the Pantech Discover.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greg97526:
Even without root this phone is great! Had a tbolt before but don't let no root stop you. There will be stuff for it eventually I'm sure.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] abdi7451:
Yea, but it not having Gorilla Glass is the ultimate deal breaker. If it had awesome dev support, I'd take it over the Galaxy S II HD LTE, but alas that's not the case. Do you find it scratches easily? Do you have a screen protector? If so what kind?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
I just got home and stole the wifes phone. I used option 2 and installed CWM recovery without a hitch, and Im on JB with locked bootloader
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
I was on rooted jelly bean with a locked boot loader, so I had to downgrade to the unlocked ICS boot-loader then flash the CWM zip (option 1)

The instructions were clear enough, but this isn't my first rodeo, I've been rooting and roming phones since the LG Optimus V. one issue I had with the instructions was when they told me to fast-boot a zip when it meant a .img file before flashing the CWM .zip. Also you could make the point of putting the CWM.zip file on the SDcard before going into fast-boot mode a little more prominent, I skimmed right past it and didn't realize it till it was too late, So I had to boot the phone backup and start over.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
Thanks for the feedback I will amend accordingly. :good:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
Excuse my ignorance, but if I chose to downgrade back ICS bootloader now, can I still do that ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
Don't see why not. just follow direction for downgrading bootloader.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
[MENTION=4128417]MtDewFella[/MENTION] is correct you can revert at any time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
Im in the process of downgrading and my second md5sum doesn't match yours and Im sure that im on JB. Is this an issue or am I good to continue? heres what I've got so far;
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
They shouldn't match until after you flash the new bootloader. If they don't match after that let me know before you reboot.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
I now have an unlocked bootloader as well as CWM, man, your awesome! I thought all of your directions were clear and easy to follow (except for the 2nd md5sum, It made me think they should match at that point, but anyone following this thread will know better now) Thanks again for all your help!

P9090 Kernel released

The P9090 kernel has been released by Pantech.

http://opensource.pantech.com/model/result.asp?SEQ=2449

Note:

This kernel is based on the tag M8960AAAAANLYA1744J of Codeaurora; with this commit reverted "Update copyright to The Linux Foundation". This is very bad news because it will be very difficult to update.

Greetings.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
Still great news I guess. At least Pantech came through
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
I'm not a kernel dev, so maybe someone could explain why would what ever Pantech did to the kernel source make it difficult to update? It is source code and the point of it is so we build custom kernels. That said it's still better to have the kernel source than not.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vijayr2002:
Anyone experience this? I hear the speaker disortion randomly, not often and cannot predict its occurence. Running stock ics. Its like a sound when computer freezes. Otherwise the sound is ok.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
Doing it now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
Doing what now? Building a Custom Kernel?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
Synced jb caf 2.6 adding support for this phone hopefully. Really wish I had it to test on. That's a kernel for msm devices [MENTION=3605406]sandnap[/MENTION] get on hangouts
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
I gots a Pantech Discover with CWM and the ability to nandroid backup, I'd be willing to test
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
Developer said I could use an already nice kernel so I chose an over clocked one CPU 2ghz and GPU 450mhz I think
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
well as long as that won't fry my phone I'll give 'er a go
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
Are you able to build the kernel and/or CM? I checked out your kernel work :good:. I am still getting build errors and I have been pretty busy the last couple of days so I haven't had a lot of time to work them out. I am pretty sure it's a compatibility issue with the Xcode 5 command line tools. About ready to go back to a VM with Ubuntu. If you are able to build and have something to try I can flash it too. No phone yet, eh? I'll be on Hangouts more over the next couple of days.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Unjustified Dev:
I'll try so many lines of code omg arghhh. I'll build stock kernel though as mine isn't near ready

update server unavailable

Hi there, first of all I want to thank all you guys in this forum for your efforts and accomplishments on the device.

Now to the problem, for some reason I'm unable to receive the JB update on my phone due to the "server unavailable" error, not even on the AT&T network, I've been checking everyday and even tried changing the date to bypass the 24 hour check limit and still JB is not being pushed to my phone. So from what I've read, now we have a working CWM. The question is, is it possible for someone to share a JB nandroid backup?

I do believe in this phone's potential so count me in if testing is needed....

Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] osopol4r:
I can confirm this method worked for me on 4.0.4 build IMM761.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greg97526:
Sounds like u uninstalled system apps like I did. Had the same problem and man it was a headache.

Undo any frozen apps from titanium backup and reinstall any uninstalled or disabled apps then try. If not I suggest waiting till things are done here. Took me and sandnap 3 days to get mine back up and running.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
Provided you haven't removed applications or modified your system in any way (other than rooting it) I would consider installing the update since it flashes updates to several partitions (modem, etc...) and then reverting the bootloader and installing CWM but it's your choice. I can provide the JB nandroid back up and also the JB update zip file which can be installed from the external sdcard through the stock ICS recovery. Let me know and I'll upload one or the other and post a link. It will take a while to upload due to my terribly slow upload speeds.

---------- Post added at 02:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 PM ----------

random reboots

Im having some issues with random reboots, would this be caused by one the apps? My wife has quite a few on there and if it is an app, how would I go about figuring out which one? Im guessing its one of the games she installed because when I had the phone, I never had reboot issues.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] greg97526:
Try running a tool that has "fix permissions" in it if u are rooted.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sandnap:
I get random reboots and so does my daughter. Hers is stock JB. The screen freezes for about 10 seconds then it reboots. I wonder if it was introduced with the JB upgrade.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MtDewFella:
For some, if you've modified the system partition, which includes rooting, the update won't apply. That happened to me I ended up getting a new phone via warranty. I could get you a back up of my jb, however I modified it's system before we had clock work mod, so it's no longer stock. It will still work and the mods in my opinion make it work better. If you're interested let me know.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] osopol4r:
Hey thanks for answering. Well, I got my device from ebay, like new condition with all the AT&T crap, I doubt the system partition was modified in someway since I had to root it. I know the OTA won't go through either on rooted or debloated devices, that's why I wanted to update to JB before debloating.

Now I'm going to have to restore my system again because titanium refuses to restore some system apps from a previous backup.

Strange really, on other samsung phones you receive the OTA notification even if you are rooted or debloated. I'll restore and let you guys know. Thanks for your help!

---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:30 PM ----------

Sorry guys for not using the multi quote.
[MENTION=3605406]sandnap[/MENTION], I have no problem doing all the extra work, I just want to try JB plus that's where all the fun is hehe. It will be great to have that nandroid backup and also the JB OTA zip!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] osopol4r:
UPDATE:

Well, I have restored using gj23's ICS nandroid backup and I still get the "server is currently unavailable" error. The only other way to update to JB would be with the OTA zip or a nandroid backup. Thanks guys!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
JB backup

Heres the JB backup you needed, hope this works for ya; http://www.mediafire.com/download/g8fpqg2qj0dhsrq/2013-10-27.11.39.11.zip
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] osopol4r:
Thank you! You are awesome. I'm now on JB :)

However I did noticed the backup you provided it includes all of personal info in the data partition, like google, facebook accounts, etc. I did a factory reset so no worries, you may want to take down the file. I see you changed the boot animation, hahaha, I almost pee my pants, bootanimation took a little bit to load, I thought I bricked my phone.

Just one last question, is this 100% stock, a no debloated nandroid backup right? I see all the AT&T apps so I believe it is but just want to be sure.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gj23:
Its not debloated and I appreciate the info on the personal data, I'll fix that now. Glad you finally got it, and that I could help.

I guess I dont know where the browser .apk in the JB backup is. I searched the phone and its not there. I checked to see if it was something that may have been uninstalled in Titanium Backup and its not there either. I do have the browser .apk from the ICS systemext4. I dont know if that will work with JB,but my guess is that it would. Look in the system/app folder here; http://www.mediafire.com/folder/r3n3loxxlrv08/systemext4
