Yep, is enabled... Is working, but it doesn't turn on my screen and the led still isn't blinking...

I have a syncing issue on my Google account, maybe this could be a reason?

Here's a screen.

For example if you close it in the app manager.

EDIT: does it matter if I use whatsapp from the playstore or download the app from the website? Noticed that there must have been an update that didn't showed up in the play store, maybe now it works fine, thank you for your support guys!

Which one do you prefer? Could you give me the links?

Hello,

I have 2 problems with a rom build by myself from Andromadus AOSP 4.2.2 : red flashing borders are appearing and quick settings panel doesn't work.

The original post is here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2174102

I would appreciate if a developper or an AOSP 4.2.2 user could help me.

EDIT : after installing gapps, the problem of quick settings panel disappears with my build and also with Flinny's build. So, it was just an installation problem but it seems quite strange that quick settings feature is only available if gapps are installed.

When I bought my desire s, it was already s-off. Is there any way to find out if phone is soff using revolutionary or something else. I am having hboot 2.00.002 and I am thinking to change the hboot to 7.00.1002 because I am having problems with some roms.
[HTC Desire S] ben_pyett:
From memory I'd personally stay with what you have..... But is been a while
[HTC Desire S] Jedioscuro:
Well, I think that if is "S-OFFed" with Revolutionary, in your bootloader would be written "*Revolutionary!*".

And yes, I think you should flash the 7.00.1002 hboot since there aren't any problem with it so far.
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
The 7.xx is just a Reengineered 2.00.002 hboot, you should be fine with what you've got. What problems are you having?

[HTC Desire S] hipp0po:
Just after getting S-OFF with Revolutionary, you should see "Revolutionary" in the bootloader. But, after, if you upgrade hboot with dd command, "Revolutionary" could disappear in bootloader. In my case, after S-OFFed with Revolutionary, I upgraded to hboot 2.00.2002. Now, in bootloader, I have :

*** LOCKED ***

SAGA PVT ENG S-OFF RL

HBOOT-2.00.2002 (PG8810000)

...

So, you could S-OFF with Revolutionary and don't have "Revolutionary" label in bootloader.

Hi ,guys.

My phone has a 2.10.168.3 vodafone stock rom. version 2.3.5, sense 3.0

It is not possible just to install a WWE rru like "RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.9_Radio_20.480 1.30 . 0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_234765_signed" with the a goldcard inserted on the phone? If what it is needed is just to unbrand the phone, without having root or other stuff... or is it need to Hboot S-OFF unlock from HTCDEV, root, install misc-version... and so one?

From fastboot i got CID = VODAPD18 which it means Vodafone Portugal. Is it possible to run above RRU + goldcard with no / little risk of bricking ? To install ruu with godcard i need to to put it on fastboot mode? What about possible future OTA updates, are they still possible to have it after generic rru install?

To go back to Vodafone stock rom, I have found and downloaded "RUU_Saga_Vodafone_GR_1.32.168.2_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.15_M_release_180041_signed", will this one work? I know there is a "RUU_Saga_S_Vodafone_GR_2.10.168.3_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_221532_signed" that should the one I have installed on the phone right now, but i can not find it anywhere...

please advise.

I will be forever grateful... thx

[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
2.10.401.9 > 2.10.168.3, (just be sure that it is actually 2.10.168.3 not 12.10.168.3 if you made an OTA update in the past - fastboot gervar version-main) so if you fool the system to skip the CID check, using a Goldcard it will take it as an update. No need to unlock or make any additional steps. There is not much of a risk if the Goldcard is not made properly the RUU installer will give you error before even starting to flash anything.

Then your phone will be unbranded (except a SIM lock if you have such, the only cure for this is XTC Clip). You will receive the offcial update for Europe, I think there is 2.10.401.10.

My advice is to use 2.10.401.8, because the one you picked is for Russian CID only so it will remain sort of a branded. 2.10.401.8 has the universal European CID: HTC__001.

EDIT: Actually I am not sure but I think your CID will remain the same after the flash - that is for someone else to confirm. But still no worries because the OTA package check the software version, not the CID

To pick a proper RUU to return to branded state (which will require misc version change for sure) download the available Vodaphone RUUs, run it on the PC without an attached phone, on the first screen on the setup (without closing it) search for rom.zip on your C drive. Once found copy it to another location (still not closing the RUU setup windows). When done copying close the RUU setup, open the rom.zip and check the CID list in the android-info.txt that you will find inside. The RUU that has VODAPD18 in there is the one that will bring your phone to the state you bought it.
[HTC Desire S] Sergiuuuuuu:
Any thoughts?
[HTC Desire S] jugg1es:
The ics update is extremely buggy, it was never released as an ota because of this. It's intention was to be a developer release, it may well be down to the ruu.

AW: [Desire S HELP THREAD] Ask any question (NOOB friendly)

No, you understood that wrong. Just leave out the misc_version lines, and you'll have temp root.
[HTC Desire S] Jedioscuro:
misc_version is used to "fool" the RUU and make it think that your firmware version is to be upgraded. These commands are required because the fooled RUU will overwrite your hboot with an older one.

This is required, because zergrush won't work if you're on 2.00.0002 and later.

If you want only temproot I think the only way is to unlock bootloader via htcdev, flash a recovery, and from there, install super su.

Maybe someone with more experience could advice you better than me.

Just for clarification purposes I already returned to stock (for the time being) and my device is s-on, hboot 0.98.0002.

Can anyone attach a copy of the zergRush.zip or link me to where I can get it from?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Check this thread.

Another way is to use directly the SuporOneClick app (which is also present in the above link), it has Zergrush included
[HTC Desire S] oddoneout:
SuperOneClick doesn't seem to work, just returns errors.

The commands given from the hboot 2.00.0002 downgrade thread doesn't seem to actually do anything since there is no information about how/where to push Superuser.apk, busybox and su binaries.

I managed to get temproot by taking DooMLoRD v4 zergRush script and removing the last command adb reboot which essentially removes root, since it's only temporary, of course.

I'm thinking that this script (along with necessary files) should be added to the development index since there is no explicit guide on how to obtain temproot for non-experts such as myself. I've attached it in case this is considered.

Till yesterday, there was no problems with my phone, all activities that I did related to system was just changing the phone.apk.

In the night till morning, I just charged my phone, after it was full, I turned it off couple hours.

When I turned it on, there was something weird happened to my phone, when I checked message, all my contacts shown numbers only/not contact names.

When I checked People app, and chose phonebook scrolldown, contacts on my phone was zero, as screenshot below

I dont know what's happening, I dont have any contact backup in sdcard nor pc, I dont sync my contact to my email account or sim card, just on the phone..

Anyone one know how to solve it?
