[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
Hey guys

Can you help me out please.

I have HTC Desire HD

It has clockworkmod recovery installed

when i put the phone in bootloader mode, it is

****UNLOCKED****

ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL

The phone is stuck on the HTC logo screen

I have flashed a custom ROM

and then tried to flash BOOT.IMG via ADB

when I type adb devices, I get a blank return message.

I believe the issue is that I need to flash boot.img to get the ROM working

I can't boot into the OS and flash the RUU to get it back to stock either

I just need a working phone, not bothered whether it is a custom ROM or stock

Any advise is greatly appreciated
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yumm91:
You need to flash boot.img through fastboot, not adb.

Go to fastboot, and type fastboot flash boot boot.img

So S4 does have many features and is very much similar to the S3

So i just made a review on it's features, you should watch it before buying it:

[YOUTUBE]i8UY44rRTB8[/YOUTUBE]
[Galaxy S 4 General] AdamG-960:
Well the new features that the S4 is bringing will be coming in a software update to the S3, so if you already have the S3 it isn't really worth the upgrade.
[Galaxy S 4 General] boodies:
It's the best phone you will be able to get... in the world. What do you mean is it worth it lol. But yeah if you have the s3, you might not need to upgrade. As I also have the Note 2, im waiting till the Note 4 comes out.
[Galaxy S 4 General] bollywood69:
did he really just point out that the GS4 is just a stretched GS3... -_-

As a GSN2 user, the GS4 is a joke, I'll just wait for these random software upgrades comes to me.
[Galaxy S 4 General] adamfair:
Best software in the world. RUMOR has it that the nexus 5 will have gesture control on back of the phone equipped with Qualcomm 800 chipset with 16meg camera that captures 4k....we will see though...2 months away...and key lime pie
[Galaxy S 4 General] tbong777:
Features one actually uses are the only features worth upgrading phones for. My wife still uses and loves the SGS 2. She has not want for the S3 or Note.

I don't need a 13MP camera. 5 is more than enough. 8 cores? I don't use what I have to it's maximum, except I belive battery life However, I have never used my extra battery on the Note 2 so battery life is plenty as I charge every night whether or not the phone is at 30% or 70%. Gimmicky features don't appeal to me.

Plastic does. Plastic = lighter and with larger and larger screens that is meaningful for me. I would love to see a Note 3 with a 6" screen and not use the Nexus.

The S3 for Note users is likely not worth the upgrade. For S3 users it very well may be. There are some nice additions as well but the N 3 will have them and more gimmicks in a few months.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ipsuvedi:
If iPhone (i call it f*Phone:D) is being famous just adding 1or 2 new features every time ..and it considered worth upgrade..then why not Galaxy??? While it has every hardware and software is upgraded....

And why you people only comparing it with galaxy s3...whileits independently most advanced device till date with every possible featured

In my case I have been using samsung since captivate and I have no intention of switching brands or even comparing brands. As long as rooting is easy, SD Cards can be used, and batteries are replaceable Samsung gets my money.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] jgme:
Ive read people asking this same question and it hasnt been addressed yet. I downloaded and installed the SE Rom 1.2, and I cant get the Phonext to assign individual ringtones. Ive tried everything, 100K or less, reinstalling Phonext, even trying a standard tone like Bellditty.wav, and Phonext always plays the default ringtone. Ive tried putting it in the Windows\Rings\ folder and still nothing. The only difference ive noticed in the phone since v1.2 was installed is the way my phone dials or recieves calls. Before when i dialed a number it filled out the ()and- automatically, ex: 555-555 now its 5555555, and before the caller id showed as 1(209)555-5555, now its 12095555555. And just out of curiosity, why does Caller2picture and Phonext always copy the ringtone to the Main Memory. The purpose of a program like c2p or Phonext is to assign alot of ringtones, Id rather have my ringtones on my 256MB Storage Card than my 32MB main memory, Ive tried changing my registry to set the default rings folder on my storage card, and it works when the phone is on, but if it starts to rings while my phones off, it wont ring. And thats setting the ringtone through the regular option not phonext, phonext still doesnt work. Has anyone figurd this out yet. Thanks for any help.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] fa14:
My conclusion, I already give up these 2 app regard ringtone setting. Just stick with the regular option.

One more thing, I have the same problem as u described. When I turn off the dvice, incoming call doesn't ring. One way to figure out is only turn off the screen and everything works fine while u set the default ring folder to the storage card.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Peter Poelman:
This was a bug in Special Edition v1.2, not in PhonExt: I missed a registry key. If you add the following registry setting:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]

"SavedSound"="DefaultRing .wav"

PhonExt's distinctive ring feature will work.

Or you could make a new 3.17.03 based ROM from the kitchen. PhonExt's distinctive ring feature does not work on any ROM based on WM2003.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] JimDavis:
I've been using the Pic and Ring program with WM2003 and it's working just fine. I used it with 3.17 and 4.005 and 4.010

HI jgme,

Did you get your phonext working? I have mine taken from a rom kitchen cooked 3.17 rom and has the registry setting that xda developer has posted earlier. It still won't work. Can someone kindly give me a checklist on all the areas to check on to get the darn software working?

Cheers

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] jgme:
No I fixed the Reg key and it still didnt work. Well when i open up regedit, SavedSound was already there, so i changed the value to defaultRing .wav and it still didnt work. So maybe theres someone with other ideas?

Go to settings, connections, connections, dialling locations and change the country code. I simply deleted the entries in area code and country code and I could dial normally in the UK. However, I still can't get the ringtone customised to work !!!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] huffdoggie:
I'm usually able to solve any issues on my device with the great info here @ XDA, but I'm stumped and hoping someone can help.

Every 4.2.X ROM I flash has a voicemail notification issue. The voicemail notification icon will not appear unless I reboot my phone. It won't disappear after listening unless I reboot or go into app info and close it. Currently I'm using the latest Hellybean, and I love it. But it has this same issue.

Also, on this ROM I cannot change my voicemail number from *86. On some ROMs (I.e. SlimBean 4.2.2) the vmail is changed automatically on install of rom.

Any thoughts or fixes for the notification and/or vmail issues? Any direction is greatly appreciated!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ralii:
I can only give a me too. Icon gets stuck (and not even turned on right away). Cannot change voicemail number from *86. Also using Hellybean.

Sorry, no answers, but at least it's not just you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidaljs:
Yeah, I'm hearing that same issue on a few 4.2.2 threads. So u guys r on alone.

Try Google voice if want. It doesn't fail me ... It actually saves me since I'm always changing or updating ROMs so my voicemail & SMS are never missed.

Good luck

Re: codeworkx will no longer make CM for the S4.

Generally there were 3 developers who maintained samsung devices

1. Codeworkx

2. Entropy512 and

3. Xplodwild

Of them the first 2 have vowed to never waste their time on exynos

Xplodwild is still there but how much time he will have I have no idea..

It will be very difficult to get competent and experienced developers so quickly ..

So initially S4 will definitely be behind in AOSP development IMO
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThilinaC:
The way Samsung is treating the dev's & developer community I doubt anyone from CM team will be left with Samsung devices in near future :/
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] browy:
If you want CM or AOSP don't buy Samsung's devices. They never have offered any real support toward third party development. Ask Entropy512 and he'll tell you the whole story. They promise something but never live up to their words. I'm sure some people here still remember the Exynos saga.

I'm pretty sure development support for this device will be poppin! The S3 and the S2 didn't disappoint.

Just wanna know who our CM developer will be.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vortox:
I wouldn't be sure of that. The most experienced devs for Exynos are sick of it and won't support S4. Maybe new will come, but will they as good as them?

CM is a community-project so devs are not forced to develop for a device even if it's popular if they want they do. I think S4 will be far behind other AOSP devices. Just take a look at S2 and S3. If you want CM

don't

for Samsung, go Sony or Nexus. Don't be disappointed about CM on S4 (if it will be released?), you have been warned.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Entropy512:
Since the Exynos5 dual has a Mali GPU instead of PowerVR, that'll result in the graphics subsystem being an undocumented mess again.

Also, there's a possibility that down the line some sort of gapps-ish exfat approach may be feasible. It should be OK to put in the hooks for FUSE exfat support, however CM most likely can't include the exfat FUSE tools themselves due to licensing issues. So it MIGHT be possible to have a gapps-like situation of "flash this for exfat support".

Actually I find your comment even more interesting than his.

You're complaining about new android's features being gimmicks and yet you prefer TW. That must be the joke of the day for me. Dude, go to google, search for S4 new features and you can spend the rest of your day reading comments about how gimmicky they are. Oh, so you think the face unlock feature is a gimmick, tell me how many times have you swiped your palm to take screenshots? Not gimmicky at all? S-voice, do you use it? It is rubbish comparing to Siri and Google Now. Direct Call? If you’re texting someone in the stock SMS app, just put the phone to your head and it calls them. Magic! Except, I can’t recall a single point in my life where I’ve actually called someone directly from a text message.

And then we have the fact that anything mentioned above is faster, smoother and battery friendlier than TW. Reading your comment, I think the only thing you're complaining about is the interface, the "GB style", the look of the lockscreen and dialer. Talking about style and look, it's personal taste, while you love your TW cartoony style, others prefer holo. But thing is, while CWM and other custom ROMs allow users to customize the crap out of their phone with their powerful theme engine, TW doesn't.

And please, I choose to hate TW because of my long experience with it, not because of any silly reason you've mentioned. I've owned a S2, S3 and Galaxy Tab 10.1 and not once have I ever thought TW is so faster, smoother, battery friendlier, less gimmicky and much more customizable than other ROMs out there.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrcol:
I never said TW features werent all gimmicks but it does seem double standards when android gets rave reviews every update with every dev jumping to it, when 90% of the new features in a new android release are gimmicks. Plus that android slows down on every update and it keeps getting simplified (features cut).

However the contacts app and dialer are better in TW than AOSP for me (I recongise some may prefer the AOSP dialer). I have not yet played with multi window but I can see it may be potentially useful. I think the quick settings toggle on TW is better than the quick settings toggle on android 4.2.

JKAY framework brings a lot to TW as well to the point the only real big advantage AOSP has at that point is its speed, there is no doubting AOSP is very fast.

You are not the only person who has mistaken for me for liking TW theme, by the theme I assume you mean the colours etc. I actually like the AOSP theme, but I dont like its stock apps in particular the dialer and contacts. But it seems from what I have looked into it, its only fixable by changing the framework which is probably why all devs have left it alone. The contact apps on the play store have their own issues.

I used to really hate TW but it has come a long way and does seem much improved on the S3 than it was on my galaxy ACE. A big reason why TW design doesnt change much over the years is that user's who are not IT literate and especially not developers believe it or not do not like change, they want an itnerface they are used to. Remember samsung do have to cater for the millions of users who dont root phones, dont install roms, and it may take them a year to learn how to use it properly, thats why TW is how it is. Its also one reason why nexus phones are not a big player.

As for freedom I am using neatrom with JKAY framework now on my S3 and I can choose between 5+ lockscreen types for a start. Plus it has themes including AOSP theme.

I think both AOSP and TW have merits in their own ways, but I have learned in the last few days TW is actually not that bad anymore.
