[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Sure, this is the confirmation.

You need this RUU for your AT&T

Reboot in bootloader mode

Plug in your USB cable

Open a adb command window

At the prompt type>fastboot oem lock

Your phone will reboot.

Again in bootloader mode with FASTBOOT USB highlighted simply run the RUU downloaded

Your phone will be completely wiped including SD card.
[HTC One X+] eyecrispy:
What exactly is the RUU? What does it do?

Also, once I do that, how do I get the stock ROM back on it?

Also, once I get back to stock recovery how do I get back to bootloader?
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
RUU = ROM Update Utility

This will update and restore your phone to it's original state including boot, recovery, rom, etc. Your phone will be exactly like it was the first time you press the Power button.

To access Bootloader simply hold your Volume down rocker and press Power button.
[HTC One X+] eyecrispy:
I ran the RUU a few times and it has been stuck on the "Verifying information on your Android phone. Please wait ..." screen for a long time. How long does the RUU run?

I am running win7 from a virtual machine. Not sure if that makes a difference. But the RUU didn't seem to work. Do you have a MD5 for the RUU file you posted?
[HTC One X+] havoklant:
Would that work if you registered your phone on htcdev.com? Warranty will be void if you unlocked your device, it doesn't matter if its locked again.
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
Yes maybe the VM can be a problem, I will do search about this. One thing I know. some people says the needed many try before it worked.

MD5 : 3B951A3195E60712A62A4DB6AC181CC7

You can try this one if you want an alternative : RUU_EVITARE_UL_JB_45_Cingular_US
[HTC One X+] eyecrispy:
Thanks. What's the difference between the two exe files?
[HTC One X+] Lucky Thirteen:
They are the same, only the source is different. Since I am having an TELUS phone I can't test if any of those files are working so I gave you two different source to download the file just "in case..."
[HTC One X+] phikal:
In bootloader it will state re-locked after locking bootloader again so its not possible to get back all stock again.

Hey! So my 64gb SanDisk microsd card was working fine then the other day it decided to switch to read only, and nothing I do will fix it, windows refuses to format it, ubuntu says it did but the data remains untouched, nothing works! Any help?

also, i had a sandisk usb flash drive. 2 of my coworkers had a flash drive and micro sd go out in december and january. coincidence? perhaps...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Andrew_han:

Same Issue

I has been dealing with this issue ...now with two SanDisk Micro sd cards XC I, I did tried to format in almost all the know ways...tried Linux, Windows, command line, Different adapters, Different computers, tried with the Storage feature from the Android OS,

Now I have two beatiful 64G micro sd cards....READ ONLY. Also if you browse the content in the file explorer from the computer the Delete option is not listed in the explorer.

Is there any magic tool that can remove this read only feature from the cards????????
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Dika2110:
same issue

Same issue here: did you update ROM to 4.3 version? I read that it could contain a setting within the platform.xml file that you find into system/etc/permission folder. See this

I tried it but with no success.

I hope you're luckier :eek:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Dika2110:
Btw i sent it back to Amazon asking for refund (and they agreed). Bye
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blasterrr:
I

warn

you trying this setting. I tried this >>> Editing .XML file. I started getting severe force closes especially Google Frame Work Services. Even reverting did not help. Had to use my Nandroid Backup to go back.

4.3 is sucking so far for 64 GB External SD Card write support. Titanium Backup & Helium both apps can not do automatic scheduled Backups on External SD Card since 99% of the time they do not get Write Access. Only way to do an external SD Card backup is manually after rebooting the phone, even that is hit n miss.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Dika2110:
I agree with you. 4.3 is still far from 64Gb SD Card support, and I know that editing this file can be dangerous, but I read that someone was able to restore his card and due to its cost was worth a try. During my tentative, this update didn't have effect (but at least I didn't get more troubles). :p
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Lembo:
Same issue.

64GB SanDisk card from my Note 3 (search brought me here) became read only after 5 months.

I've ended up sending it under warranty back to SanDisk.

I'm glad I didn't loose anything as I've backed it up but still don't like the idea of returning something with a lot of my data and photos I can't delete.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stashu74:
may have found solution

I was having the very same problem. I finally went into the computer management, and was about to throw phone across room....when I tried to format one last time. This time I unchecked the quick format. It is taking longer, but seems to be working...I am keeping fingers crossed.

Full Format has finished and card is saved! Hope this helps anyone in the future.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dy_domyoung:
Hi,

First of all thank you for taking time to read this.

I have a nokia lumia 800 which has never been updated my info shows as follows;

H3G UK SW Variant ID235 v3

1600.2483.8106.11500

059L8M3

RM801

I have a locked bootloader and i literally have tried everything to update/flash my phone. It fails everytime. Nokia suite gives a error code: cannot change mode and CAB sender just says an unexpected error has occured.

I have tried about 15 different firmwares, i have tried the refurbish option but it asks me to turn my phone off and hold the power button ect, which does not work.

I am stuck with this phone for at least another year and i at least want it to be as good as it can be. I check the forums ever single day for new updates and methods but i am slowly losing hope.

I am pulling my hair out, please can some one help me. Please.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Lanex777:
Have you tried updating via zune?
[Nokia Lumia 800] dy_domyoung:
Yes, sorry i should have mentioned ive tried everything..

Zune give an error, but recently its told me that my phone is up to date which is quite strange
[Nokia Lumia 800] Lanex777:
You might try the trick with pulling the cord, it will make Zune update the phone...
[Nokia Lumia 800] *Detection*:
Factory reset the phone then plug it into Zune
[Nokia Lumia 800] noxified:
what do you mean?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Lanex777:
Connect your Windows Phone to a PC and launch the Zune software

Click on Phone > Settings > Update. Allow the software to tell you whether an update is available. If so, skip this guide. If not continue to the next step.

Time to force the update. Click another button (any of the options above or below the word Update). Then click the Update button again and try to count how much time does it take to find out that the phone is up to date. When you can predict when zune will stop checking for an update and tell you that it's up to date, press look for an update again and turn the internet off on PC in a second before it was supposed to finish checking for an update. It takes some skills and time, but I updated my phone in 5 attempts, so it is not supposed to be very difficult. If everything is OK Zune should display a notification that an update is available. Now reconnect to the internet and continue with the update process through the Zune software.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] knorde:
Hi there,

My phone is:

- Rooted

- Dutch stock rom

- Custom kernel

3 questions:

1. If i try to update to version 1.17.404.3 by the OTA my phone won't startup anymore and i have to re-install the rom.

Where can i get the update so i can install it manually?

2. Where can i get the dutch stock rom?

3. On htcdev.com i can download a .tar.gz with software version 1.17.404.3 for the explorer.

But it is a .tar.gz and not a zip. Is this a rom or is this something else?

Has anyone been able to do what's in the subject area above? I am sure it would help many others as well.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Jos:
Try this:

Works only for upgrade from Dangaard (or Qtek) 1.60 WWE to I-mate 1.53.82.

1. Download the i-mate ROM image from Club i-mate or from http://www.c1au.com/iMatePDAROMS/ruu15283.zip

2. Unzip the file with Winzip

3. You now get a file called ruu15283wwwe_cdl.exe

3. Extract this file with Winzip to a new folder

4. Extract the attached file to the same folder

5. Start the conversion and upgrade by double-clicking convert.bat

Grtz,

Jos

I think i found this topic a little too late. The link to the rom update is no longer current and the i-mate website have updated their download to ruu113sku1.exe so the script doesnt work anymore. :(

Would you be kind enough to write a script for this new rom update as i am unable to install certain software from the club i-mate site with the Dangaard rom.

I have an o2 XDAII with Dangaard 1.60

I get an error message saying that the password may not be correct.

Well sorted the problem. i used the convert program above with the rom from the club imate site http://www.clubimate.com/support/ruu15283wwe_cdl.zip

the download for this kept failing at 37.8Mb when the file sizes should have been 38.7Mb. but using a download manager sorted this. I personally use HiDownload

once i had upgraded to this rom i upgraded to the latest rom from the imate site given above.

now i should be cooking with gas, and hope all my apps install properly, plus i hope i get some benefit from the bug fixes.

So I've been using a wifi tether app that's convenitely named "WiFi Tether" for over a year now. Recently my phone started bugging out, so I wiped it (backed up my SDcard) and installed a new ROM and reinstalled WiFi Tether. Now I start up the app and it says it started with errors, please check log. I checked, it had like 6 errors, tweaked the settings, now I'm down to one error. That's the AdHoc setup failed.

I changed it to Softap and started it again and had 5 or 6 errors, went back to AdHoc, still get the same error and I'm frustrated. I've changed channel frequency's, enabled/disabled security, tweaked NAT settings, and still get that ONE error that's preventing me from tethering.

First of all this is my frist post, I'm sorry if I did something wrong.:silly:

I have rooted my xperia sola and flashed some mods, (Tweak&CPU - Xperia Z Launcher). I got .54 Official Rom, but Update Center keep saying there is an update. I tried many times to update but it says after rebooting "It has failed, Try Again."

What did I do wrong? :confused:

What's the difference between 'Phone Software Version' and 'File System Version' ?

I got different values.

It says Phone Software V : 6.1.1.B.1.10

File System V : 6.1.1.B.1.54 :eek::confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Bhargav4591:
Ahh... a similar problem which i had ... the Phone software version is influenced by your kernel .. :silly:

Your kernel is based on b.1.10 and so your PCC assumes that your entire firmware is out of date and attempts to correct this though an update , which for obvious reasons , it can't cause you've unlocked your BL :p

Solution? Shift to an updated kernel of the one you are using , make sure it's either of the same version or higher than that of the ROM firmware .

Still if you cant get another kernel ,simply freeze the update app on Titanium Backup :victory:

Hope this helps ,

Press Thanks if it did =D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] asakurato:
Mine are 6.1.B.1.75 and 6.1.B.1.54 so I don't think updating will help.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Bhargav4591:
So you're being asked to update even though your kernel is based on 6.1.B.1.75 (higher) :eek: ... odd ...... try getting a kernel that matches your file system version i.e a 6.1.B.1.54 kernel(stock or custom) this should hopefully work . Else , since you've unlocked your BL ,why not use a custom ROM ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] asakurato:
I don't know how I got .75 sw version(about phone shows .54), but my kernel is based on latest official sources(Vengeance 1.26 kernel). When I asked developer about this, he said it's normal with unlocked BL. As for custom rom, I'm planning to install one, I'm just searching for one that fits me perfectly.

If you're just annoyed with the update notification , freeze 'update center 'app via Titanium backup =P

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eminembdg:
Seems you have the red light of death ( RLOD) . Can you get into the boot loader?

Plug in the charger, hold power button and volume down button. If you can get into bootloader then use the volume key to select "power down" and use power button to choose that option. Then just leave the phone plugged in for a while.

I've had it only take maybe 5 minutes and other times take an hour. Try turning it on, if it just vibrates then shows the Google screen and reboots then redo the steps and leave it plugged in and let it sit for longer

I can't say if it does because I just found it with your own thread.

I'm looking for some good brands that ships internationally. I myself have the anker batteries. They are great but they won't ship outside of US. I have a few eBay batteries myself that aren't so great battery life (gold 2850, remax 2300).

Doesn't have to be eBay. Around $15-25 for a 2 pack shipped overseas would be great.

ZeroLemon best battery, its from amazon, not sure if they ship overseas

Apparently they don't ship to Canada so it's doubtful they'd ship overseas although I could be wrong. I definitely agree with recommending them though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CZ Eddie:
Shipping overseas is a minor PITA for us in the USA.

FedEx & UPS are both expensive as heck.

USPS is cheaper by far for small items.

But the amount of forms you have to fill out is annoying.

And if you don't spring for the "Express USPS" option with the tracking #, then you can get screwed on Paypal if the item never arrives. And the item can take anywhere from only a week, to about three months (no lie) to arrive.

I had a guy do a paypal claim on me for a $15 item that I shipped via USPS slow boat (per his request). It finally arrived after three months, but he claim'd me after two months and got his money back despite my protests to Paypal.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] whatsitsnamenow:
Usps only allows shipping of batteries if the battery is already installed in the device. I recently tried to ship my 2 anker batteries along with my phone overseas and was told that it is not allowed.

Yeah Anker and Zero Lemon are a no go for overseas shipping.
