[HTC Desire S] hipp0po:
Hello,

I'm trying to build a rom from andromomadus aosp repository.

The checkout comes from andromadus git and the branch is jb4.2

The build is done with ubuntu 11.10. The target device is a HTC Desire S.

During checkout/compilation, I was facing some errors :

- I changed branches of last four projects : using mr1.1-staging instead of mr1-staging and jellybean

- the compilation of the libion generates errors. I bypass problem by deleting references to ION_IOC_SYNC and heap_mask

Now, the compilation is OK. I obtain the following files in the output directory :

11 android-info.txt
3434496 boot.img
24868 clean_steps.mk
4096 data
59410 installed-files.txt
3245456 kernel
4096 obj
585 previous_build_config.mk
185385 ramdisk.img
697903 ramdisk-recovery.img
4096 recovery
3946496 recovery.img
4096 root
4096 symbols
4096 system
218223580 system.img
4096 test
21738076 userdata.img

My problem is that I fail to use the generated img files. I tried to flash system.img and/or boot.img with fastboot but it seems that nothin is done. After such a flash, when I reboot in recovery mode, ext4 indicates that the device is in safe mode because there's nothing on system partition. Normal boot gives black screen after HTC logo.

I've mounted the system.img file on linux (after simg2img) and I see a tree that seems correct.

I don't know if I forgot something during the build steps or if there is some steps to do after the build ?

I've tried to use unyaffs2 and make_ext4fs to manipulates img files but I'm not sure of what I have to do.

Any help would be appreciate.

Noob here!!

My DS is HTC dev unlocked and I have some experience of flashing roms,am currently on AOKP 4.2.2. I have seen the message "Make sure you are on the latest recovery" on many threads. How does one do it,I mean how can I know if I am on the latest recovery or not. :silly: .I use 4ext btw.

Also can some one help me understand what "Radio" is? :confused: and when is it required to change the default one?
[HTC Desire S] hisname:
1.you can't change your radio when you are s on. radio is the "driver" (can't find a better word) that enables you to use your wifi, bluetooth and calls. changing radio might help in solving battery drain in some cases. In some other cases, the radio can improve network connectivity.

2.in order to get the latest recovery, go and download 4ext recovery app in play store. upon entering the app, the app will tell you whether you are on the latest recovery. do note that you are s on,the app will not be able to overwrite your old recovery. you will have to download the recovery zip and flash it manually using fastboot

Help for total newbie / Desire S stuck on HTC logo

Hi!

After reading forum for days and seeking answer, I had to register to solve my problem.There are many threads with same problem, but nothing seems to work for me. I have Desire S what I've been working on to flash. The problem is, that I can't get any ROM to boot, it just stucks on that white HTC screen. Only ROM that works, is this ported original ROM from HTC one, and RUU's work too. First I was using:

*** UNLOCKED ***

SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.02.0002

RADIO-38.31.19.00.110

eMMC-boot

Unlocked with htcdev with clockwork recovery. I did remember to fastboot flash boot images every time. Made wipes and and roots with superuser. Only ROM I got working was that ported HTC ONE rom. Then I installed revolutionary's program, and now my phone is:

SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-6.98.1002

RADIO 38.03.02.11_M

eMMC-boot

But still nothing works. I've been rooting this, formatting everything what I can find from recovery, wiping all the data, battery etc. Just can't get it to boot to anything, and I'm totally lost. I've tried every guide and advice that I can find and 15 roms now. Hope someone can save my day.

Thanks. :)

Woah, thats strange :eek:

Ill try to help you with this. i hope you know how to use ADB a little, otherwise there are some good threads around (i believe in post 2 of this one is a link)

Make sure you are on a working rom, which is rooted, has busybox installed and has USB debugging on.

run

adb shell

and then run

cat /proc/emmc

Finally, run

dmesg|grep -i panel

and type "exit" to stop the shell or just close the thing.

Please copy and paste the outputs for the commands. ;)

This was my initial thoughts, but after reading it i didnt think that there was that many roms that would be affected by the mddi panel

“Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go” - Oscar Wilde
[HTC Desire S] :
That's why i also asked for his partition table, i personally think that the older bootloader of revolutionary gives issues and he might still have some leftovers from /system/lib/, as he says he can only boot some Sense ROMs, Sense ROMs are the only ones to use that partition. (yes! weirdly a partition see my emmc data and block 28!)

I remember having leftovers there was blocking all other ROM installations.

And i asked for mddi data just to be sure :angel:

[HTC Desire S] lowveld:
That's why I told him to find if he has a /system/lib partition, find what the mmcblock number is, and simply modify a kernel updater script to format the partition. Fastest way to clean up that issue...

Out of the top of my head:

- use fastboot to install CWM

- boot into recovery (you have one now) where you should have adb support

- use adb to change misc_version to whatever you need

- flash the ruu you want

Might be wrong, but sounds good. Anyone?
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
So both issues could be because of the same thing?

That is what I just did. Sounds very good. Maybe use superuser on recovery to gain easy root access before misc_version? I'm just a noob, but I did that. :p

Thanks - please see question thread for response http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38469670
[HTC Desire S] :
Yep, i know it for you,

1. (not related, but saying anyways) You stuck with the revolutionary hboot, if you search the forums for ENG Hboot 7 i believe (Vampire's the OP) and update to that you are already safer and will wipe everything again, so no leftovers on /lib anyways :P

2. I'll redirect you to the non-sony panel users hangout lounge. Unfortunately you are unlucky to have an MDDI panel (as you can read from the dmesg command). It gives the non-booting issue on hellofalot ICS and JB roms (but not on sense roms! which have mddi support) Always when you get a ROM you should get the kernels from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1943524 and flash these after you flashed your ROMs.

Happy Flashing! ;)

[HTC Desire S] boleguc:
Hi, I bought a used Desire S that supposedly "turns on, but not everytime, as sometimes it stays on the bootanimation". I received it this morning and turned it on several times and it worked every time, however the touchscreen doesn't work, it just stays on the lockscreen. Since the phone wasn't rooted or s-off, i unlocked the bootloader via htcdev and successfully connected it to my pc via fastboot. I installed a clockworkmod recovery via fastboot and when I tried to enter recovery it just stays on the htc splash screen. I also tried with 4ext recovery, the result is the same. My guess is that the phone's software is corrupted as it restarts itself while charging, shows different battery levels everytime I turn it on, and there are some more bugs...

Can someone help me figure out how to get into recovery and try to install a different, custom rom and see if the touchscreen is broken or is it just the rom that is corrupted? Or at least if there is an option to flash a rom via fastboot and try my luck there?

Btw, my HBOOT is 2.02.0002, radio is 3831.19.00.110, and the phone is locked to a specific carrier. I posted a thread as well and was told to come here...

Many thanks in advance...
[HTC Desire S] first_damned:
You could first try to flash a official RUU to see if the touchscreen works. Then you can root your phone and download 4ext to your phone and install custom recovery.

It would have to be the ics RUU though, the wwe one at a guess

Can you get a log of the issue?

I assume you replaced the kernel and modules from Endy? Are you sure it's the module that doesn't load, not a wpa supplicant issue?

Just to make sure the module loads correctly, try manually inserting it.

- open a console with adb shell

- cd to /system/lib/modules

- type lsmod to check if it's loaded

- type: modprobe ./the_module_name.ko

- it's useful to be capturing a logcat when running the previous line

What android version is the rom you're porting? 2.3?

Cheers

-- edit --

also after the modprobe, type: dmesg, and copy past the result somewhere

But since using it I have one little issue, which I can't find in the ROM's thread:

Thread: Restoring Messages from Nandroid Backup Causes System Messaging App to Force Close
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
Well for starters you could stop opening threads :rolleyes:

The thing is it looks like you've restored the messaging app from your nandroid to your current rom. I don't think they are compatable, you'll have to dig around in your current rom zip for the original app and replace it, alternatively you could just clear cach and dalvic and reflash seeing as you only did it an hour or so ago. With regards your messages, titanium can back up your messages and restore them to whatever rom your using. Rather than restore the app itself, try just restoring the just the data. It's a powerful app but just needs a bit of care what you do with it. Not all system things should be restored.
