Thanks for the warm words! As I have school now, am in the 10th grade and am really busy with everything school, so I don't think I would have enough time to take the OP.

And as you, I would also be glad to hear others' thoughts.

What's the difference between finny's CM10.1 and bnd's build? I seem to have battery issues on finny's, although I'm using a really dated release and not those marked as untested.

Also, do you guys know if anyone is working on either PA (not PAC), or 4.3/cm10.2?
[HTC Desire S] hisname:
there isn't any difference actually. but without andromadus(which flinny is part)device tree. there wouldn't be BnD builds. so, flinny is the master of all 4.1.x &4.2.x builds, lol.

Hello gentlemen, since I still see [MENTION=4665306]jugg1es[/MENTION] as the OP after nearly a week. seeing you people being so wishy washy, I have to put my $0.02 here. actually I don't see a need for a change of OP as it doesn't matter who is the OP here. it doesn't matter whether is it [MENTION=4665306]jugg1es[/MENTION] or [MENTION=5163845]NVardan[/MENTION] or [MENTION=3427632]asgardr[/MENTION] or [MENTION=4679604]teadrinker[/MENTION] or whoever it is as long as we could help the community together as one. ask yourself why was this thread even created in the first place. was it to for fame? was it for the amount of "thanks"? I am inclined to think that it wasn't for joy of helping others . we were all noobs in the beginning of our journey, there was even some who created a thread at dev forums asking for help. (I am looking at you [MENTION=4665306]jugg1es[/MENTION];))therefore I think that [MENTION=4665306]jugg1es[/MENTION] should remain as the OP, however let's respect your decision shall we? if you insist of choosing someone else as the OP, then we shall follow your wishes. remember, it's just my $0.02 :)

P. S before writing this, I still see 6 threads above this noob thread. :eek::eek:
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
It is- been put in your own fashion- what i already said

months before, the name in the OP is- after all- not that important,

as long as anyone who is in trouble can count on this thread,

I do not think, a person greedy for thanks and fame,

would ever be doing something like this....

or be a cure for one`s misery...

Noob question guys!

So I used the PG88IMG.zip to flash my phone. I also removed revolutionary and s-on. Then I flashed my carrier specific RUU, to get a factory fresh phone. And still no OTA updates!!! The phone kept saying "there are no updates available for your phone". Gah.

When I try to flash using a 1.47 RUU, I get Error 131.

I am starting to understand things a little bit though. From searching these forums, I believe this to be a CID issue that can be fixed by creating a goldcard, correct?

In that case, can I not just flash PG88IMG.zip again, and then the 1.47 RUU?

I am on Three network in the UK. Sim is locked but I don't think that matters.
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
-When , lowering software ver. on board,

you may want to use < misc version>

and ROOT privileges, - to lower the version- your phone reports to the RUU,...

...bootloader ver./firmware related...bootloader would not let,

been ,itself, replaced by its lower version

With CID issues, you have to fight only,

if you know that it ts/want to install firmware for different area, or carrier,

. without a < goldcard > you phone (probably) refuses to accept the flash...

as been for different region/carrier

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16187190

is a sensation forum, but i belive CiD number,

to be rather unified throughout htc devices- that might need a correction though,

and a little bit of a scientist ;)

when both cases are true,

both:

<misc version > on the running phone`s

and <goldcard > during a fresh flash

have to be used....

..myself, i always use RUUs - when possible,

(this may as well be, a tabu i couldn`t break, but..)

..first, prepare the phone,

then flash via <.exe>,

..perhaps/most probably, branded RUUs, may require a few more things

to be successfuly flashed- i`ve never tried any,

(except as base of a custom rom)

but , normally, branded phone receives an update through

the carrier- it`s been bound to,

brand free devices ( and unbranded ), may update through generic software source...

( receive WWE release )
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
I guess they removed the OTA packages from their servers. You can use a Goldcard to debrand and flash the last European RUU (.08). But IMO you will be happier with Endymion

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] xTheLostProphetx:
I'm getting a CID error using the PG88IMG.zip so it'll have to be a Goldcard!

Well I was still getting the notifications for OTA a week or two ago so I know they must be there. I'll look into Endymion although I'm a bit wary about custom roms now haha.

Does one of you know someone how could port latest cm builds for us?

It's getting a bit silence around the roms lately.

No offense to any of the guys who have done this for us. You have done great work and without you we wouldn't have nothing to flash :)

bugs on any 4.2 ROM

Hi, guys. I've been trying to install a CyanogenMod 10.1 (8/8/13) to my Desire S for last few days. I've strictly followed the instructions given in ROM thread and this thread. But I had no success: apps crashing, reboots, fast battery drain, etc... Also I attempted to flash AndromadusMod kernel, but it didn't changed anything at all. I've reflashed ROM with and without kernel over billion times, tried other 4.2 roms (like PACMan, flinny) but all of them have similar problems on my device.

I have:

*REVOLUTIONARY!*

S-OFF RL, rooted

HBOOT: 7.00.1002 from here

Radio: 20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.110

Recovery: 4EXT

Screen panel: SONY

Am I only one who experiencing same troubles? Everyone in ROM thread says that it works great. What am I doing wrong? Is there's any hope for me to make it work fine?

I appreciate every answer :good:
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
Hi;)

-First,

i belive, riding on a very bleeding edge of development,

bugs become everyday bread for the user,..

(always to be expected)

-second:

from my personal observations,

in case of this kind of device`s drivers,

the meaning of a "bug" is also

considered on a very personal level:

what is tolerable, and what is a realy annoying bug,..

...it might be one of the reasons:

why these, ROMs are crafted, to remain simple,

and adjustable, to almost no limit,

I have tried a few of them myself and liked it,

..there were few little things- I wasn`t particularily fond of,-

about them, (i`m Sense adict ;))

but overall....:cool:,.......anyway,

...things- as you describe- sound a bit excessive though,

even for a well weathered kindred, from among AOSP origin....

There, along the way, must be something trivial that

you may have overlooked,

...but to tell you the truth, is really difficult to guess, what is directly the cause

of that poor performance,(on several roms-as i understood)

unless, one knows exactly

--the steps you are taking...

or was having similar problems in the past,

and was willing to fix the issues

(instead of flashing another rom)

If those problems`d persist,

do not hesitate to come back here,

with some evidence ;)

..try to spot the trouble, using the logs to investigate,

they are helpfull also, for the people, reading and answering

your post,

:good:
[HTC Desire S] MolesHamsters:
so, the steps I've taken:

1. Reboot into recovery

2. Format System

3. Format Data

4. Format Cache

5. Format Boot

5. Wipe Data/Factory reset

6. Wipe Dalvik Cache

7. Run CoreDroid_EXT4_Format_Utility.zip via "install zip from sdcard"

8. Flash ROM

9. Flash gapps

10. Reboot

Also I've tried to reboot after each flash (into recovery and into rom) and installing the AndromadusMod kernel (before step 9, before step 10, after step 10), but the result, basically was always the same:

Boot starts, I see the CyanogenMod logo, and after 15 mins the setup utility appears. Then, after random time of using the phone, I recieve messages like "unfortunatelly, %APPNAME% has stopped" (sometime it happens during setup, right after the boot). I'm not always get this messages, and even if I get them, I can just ignore them. But what is really annoying - when I reboot the phone (or it reboots itself), it gets stuck on bootscreen with 50/50 chance (hard restart with pulling battery out is help sometimes, but sometimes it stucks again, again and again). Also some programs that seems to work fine on my previous ROM became unstable - it crashes in random moment.

And the another big problem - sometimes when i download an app from Google Play, it fails to install with different errors like "wrong package file", "incorrect sign", "unknown error" (some of these apps installs normally after redownloading).

I had no such problems on my old ROM flashed with clockworkMod.

P.S.: When I was writing this post, I've got some ideas:

- what the difference between ext3 and ext4? i had ext3 on my old ROM and ext4 on the one I'm trying to install. Can I flash CyanogenMod on ext3?

- can I delete my device from google play and add it again from scratch? may the presence of device cause such problems?

- (little offtop) my native cable charges phone slower than cable from HTC Desire. Why? is there any reason for that?

you could flash the rom by skanoob. it's a stock ics based rom. but before doing that, flash a custom recovery.
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
your device`s specs look great:good:

many of us would dream of getting the phone withS(ecurity_flag)- off...

but i think, in your case it is either:

a) CID

to check your cid nr.

code:

fastboot getvar cid

(about CID issues you can find something

in post #3 of this thread

b)region version

( post #3 of this thread )

c) corrupted download...

( :confused: )

...there-in your case- is a possibility

to unlock bootloader and try some XDA crafted

roms,

since the phone is S- off already,

you may easily unlock its bootloader by yourself

( without HTCdev unlock code )

...I`d not assure you- it`d work for sure,

never before`ve had a device S-off- from the box,

so, didn`t check it myself,

needs either- yours, or somebody else`s confirmation,

but that all below, seems logical,

....nevertheless:

1. connect the phone with PC (wire it )

2. start ADB

code:

adb devices [enter]

code:

adb reboot bootloader [ ]

...and when it gets there:

issue command:

code:

fastboot oem unlock

if that`d worked,

your device`s bootloader`ll be unlocked

and ready for the ride....

only need to flash custom recovery (CWM, 4ext, twrp )

code:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Start from scratch, delete all drivers and HTC sync,reboot. reinstall drivers only and make sure you're using the most up to date adb. The problem indicates a driver error rather than an issue with your phone.

I deleted all drivers and HTC sync,rebooted and reinstalled drivers and try again. I got the same results

I don't know what I can do next...
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
Sorry, if you work with fastboot mode,

- adb debuging is not important

- fastboot mode IS a `part` of a bootloader

- even if there is no system installed,

you still, must be able to reboot your device to bootloader

except when it- itself- is corrupted

-when you see, under <fastboot devices> :

something like the raw of numbers and digits,

it means your device is been recognised

and , when the blue background,

of <fastboot usb> turns -red- ,

means you`re online (connection is operational)

- adb AND fastboot drivers, are not the ones

which connect your phone as <storage drive>

( installed with HTCsync)

- Run through a guide again- if you already have,-

all is- in detail- explained there,

and then, we`ll help you here to fill in, all possible gaps...

- to proceed anywhere else from the white screen,

you must- at least- have working fastboot,

or find the RUU, which`ll not be rejected by the phone,....

...then, still, you`ll need to get in to bootloader- to flash it...
[HTC Desire S] mtg18:
Thanks for tips. I've tried many times and simply I can't go into fastboot mode, I guess. All I can get is when I connect the phone to PC it starts and hang on logo HTC. If I pull out the cable white screen appears but without fastboot usb etc. I get this:

which means I can't see blue or red background of <fastboot usb>.

You said that I can try other RUU...Can it be lower than 4.0.4 since I've tried that? for example 2.3.3?

[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
Looking at your pics it seems you got your phone with a supercid, this was probably achieved with the use of a xtcclip. The was no need to flash revolutionary io as you can flash anything. You appear to be doing everything right, the best I can suggest at this point is to relock your bootloader and flash an ruu. This shouldn't lose you your s-off because of the cid, it might give you a stable framework to work from though. Come back if this doesn't work and we will look at other things. Good luck

Hi, could you guys tell me what's the reason behind my weird battery behaviour? From less than 10% to 80% it takes less than 2hrs for charging, to 80-92% takes 1hr and 45 mins, from 92%-100% takes 15mins. I'm using new extended battery and I charge my phone with device on.

Desire S USB connection dose not recognize

Hey guys...

I have HTC Desire S mobile, problem beguns when I install the official ICS update. At the begun it worked normally but after few days it start show bugs and bugs :(: silly:

Biggest problem is phone dose not recognize the USB connection. It only charges. I tried many cables and PCs but didn't help.

However when the phone booted in to the boot-loader/recovery, then the USB connection works perfectly. so there is on error in the port!

And when a call is answered/dialed, the speaker phone was always enabled. :mad:

So I desided to try cusom ROM.

This forum really helps me to install custom ROM ( it is cool droid revolution by the way)

But I was shocked.. the problems are still there.

I would recommend moving over to 4ext recovery (rc9 you'll find links all over)

Did you flash the boot.img after you flashed your rom?

With regards your problem with recognition, i would Uninstall the drivers and start again, make sure your using the most up to date drivers and adb package, remove /disable htcsync as this will interfere with using adb.

The standard htc charger puts out 5v 1amp some extended batteries can take a higher charge rate hence will charge quicker. The lower charge rate means it will take longer to charge your phone.

My battery vendor said okay too when I asked them. Maybe it's just me a bit worry.

When using new battery which doesnt have same capacity as original (1450mAh), what do I have to do first so my phone recognize this new battery?

Is plugging till full then wipe battery stats enough?

Some of battery apps still recognize my battery capacity as 1450 although I deleted battery stat.

Or is it okay?
