Added a link for the gif support hack to the OP :)

NOTE: This should work on anything FP8-based.
[Verizon Droid Charge] fsuinnc:
sorry, but I am wanting to go to stock FP8 Kernel, currently on Lazerus. How do I know if I am rfs or ext4? (apparently the camera doesn't like my combination of Lazerus and Eclipse rom.)
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
You can use terminal emulator - use the mount command (simply type mount then hit enter). There will be a load of stuff displayed, but all you really need to do is look for the key words like /data /system /cache that sort of thing - in those lines you should see it listed as rfs or as ext4. My guess is you are rfs, but it's always smart to double-check if you aren't sure.

adb also works:

adb shell mount

i would certainly like to see some more work on this device. Just revieced it as a company phone yesterday already rooted and have it running NINJArom as of the moment. Very nice, would like to check out eclipse as well. Just letting you guys know, we are still here!
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
Those are the three around, though I'm sure deafptl4ever would be the first to point out tweaked 3.2 is fp5 still, not fp8. The barbed comment he made about someone taking money and running was vague enough to defend though given recent posts was most likely (though not definitely I suppose) directed at me. He has decided me to be quite the awful person and occasionally pops on to lash out and say veiled nasty comments across threads. His claim of take-money-and-run gets a little cloudy when I offered him any of the money he donated back, but I saw no response. It's curious how I became the target considering the bevy of developers sorts (a group I do not consider myself a part of) that have done things for this phone... ah well.

Anyhoo, Eclipse and Ninja are the two most recent options - both of them are quite good in fact. I would try them both and see what fits you best and go from there :)

And nice to see you deafptl4ever :p

Decided to hold on to my charge for good sense I had to send my S4 back to sammy for a couple weeks.

Thanks a lot for the easy root for FP8 dwitherell, I can't tell you how much i'm looking forward to Tweaked FP8 and I'm not going to flash anything till then.

We're all rooting for ya but take your time :angel:
[Verizon Droid Charge] deafptl4ever:
No tears lost here. Most Charge owners feel the same way but afraid to say anything in hopes a last one will be made. He promised me he would make a unblotted rom based on the F8 and would have it ready that night. Never happened. He also said he would do other thing I asked and never did. It's all documented on here. So boo hoo to you fools who let him get away with this. I just feel sorry for those who donated a good portion of money to him with the understanding he would stick to the end like most rom makers do.

Only fool I see here is you... Thinking that someone on an internet forum owes you something.

Dwith, I thank you for your work and support. I, and the rest of the community have got your back.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kintwofan:
Get lost

WOW! You really are a winner. I've been watching your ludicrous claims and disrespectful posts and am now tired of it. Why in the world would he make anything for you. You are the most disrespectful and rude person I've seen in a long time. Do you realize how much Dwitherell has given to the Charge community and every community he has been a part of? How long do you expect him to make ROMs for the charge? By the way who in the world are you, I don't remember you around when Dwith was making this phone a beast from the very first TWEAKED stock ROM. SO.... basically you're broke, picked up a charge after it's been dumped by everyone probably for like $40 and now decided he should cater to your every need?

Also, not all charge owners agree with you, notice not one of your posts have been thanked. Maybe get a hint!

On a final note get that John 3:16 out of your signature or conduct yourself like you understand it. Why don't you look up Romans 12:18 and Colossians 4:6 and get the meaning of those, then look at how you're acting.

Up to now, I've never really "bought into" the idea of a "troll" who gets off on people's negative feelings / feedback toward themselves. Up to now. I really think he loves to have us complain about him.

Amazing...

And, in a weird way, fascinating. I worked with the mentally ill for years but this is the 1st time I've "socialized" with one...
[Verizon Droid Charge] jheide44:
Team Dwith all the way!

I am not going to post my initial comments... remove fuel from the fire...

All I want to say is I support Dwith 100%

This device is almost 3 years old. We should be glad there is still any dev interest... and understand if it is not 1st priority.

If you want something bad enough... learn to do it yourself. I did...

Guess who answered my initial learning curve questions? Who helped me brainstorm when I got stuck? Who left me enough breadcrumbs in forums that his work could be repeated/continued?

Dwith did... I am team Dwith all the way.

The community in general, and this device specifically, owe this man a debt of gratitude.

Thank you Dwith, for everything.

PS. If my little private beta test goes anywhere there MIGHT be a "FP8 rooted DEodexed BBed init.d enabled GB stock looking option" for the masses relatively soon. The debloat is heavily tweaked inspired.

No UI tweaks for I am nOOb.

MUCH CREDIT TO DWITH.

PPS. Looking @ history was the request for a RE-odexed FP8 debloat? Later deodexed sounded like a winner...

Tweaked 3.2 ROM bits did not appear to be RE-odexed.

Do "we" know what "we" really want?

end rant
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stauf99:
kynalvarus is making progress on the Lazarus Recharged FP8 Kernal.

Then we'll just need some Tweaked and all will be right with the Droid Charge world again :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stauf99:
When ever i do the Deodex flash it keeps soft bricking.

I tried with both recoveries, I tried with clean wipes before and clean wipes before and after.

any ideas?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jheide44:
If you keep clicking "thanks" you got me till the end of lunch :)

Since your return to stock... did you get wifi or mobile data going and take all the OTAs to fp8?

Or... what is your kernel?

U

if you flashed fp8 kernel...Have you wiped data/cache/dalvik?

Edit: what does soft brick look like? Loop at sammy logo? Given deodex and 3x wipe... might just have to give her an extra minute that first reboot...

If all that fails...check md5 vs OP...might need a re-download and try again...
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stauf99:
i did not... when do i need to do so when flashing stuff on my trustie Dcharge?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jheide44:
yep... go to mounts and mount system in cwm before installing zip from sd card...

after you mount the option should read "unmount" that way you know it is mounted.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stauf99:
So that worked, no hassle what-so-ever.

I recommend for noobs sake that the "mount system" step be included in the instructions. this same exact problem happened to me the second time i flashed tweaked 3.2 long ago and just forgot to read the OP closely.

so again, and speaking of which, do i have to mount system every time i flash anything, or just roms, or what?

Thanks :good:
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
You'll need to mount /system for pretty much anything that is designed to do something on /system - this is a general quirk of the good ole droid charge :)

[MENTION=4041997]dwitherell[/MENTION]

just so I'm not thinking something may happen someday that never will, are you piddling around at all with a Tweaked for the DCharge FP8?

No hate, just curiosity and appreciation :)
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
No worries :)

To be completely honest, I was not only without time but was also without a charge for the better part of the last three months or so. I'm still having some issues with the time element, but the latter issue has just recently been resolved :)

Not to be overly vague or anything, but the chances of renewed piddling have increased greatly - just waiting on that window of opportunity :)

[Verizon Droid Charge] wetwaterdog:
I took my charge back to EP4 with odin and did the OTA updates to FP8. From there I used odin again to install 0817 recovery, then used to install your DeOdexed version with SU. Everything seems to be working fine but I have a few questions.

1) should I use recovery version 0302 instead of the current install of 0817?

2) Do I need or should I have installed the Stock Kernel or the Stock Recovery or neither? They appear to be the same in size. I am not sure what they do or are needed for.

3) IF I have used the OTA updates to get to FP8, is there any advantage to using your DeOdexed version other than it having SU built in. Can I just install SU myself, and then go about removing any apks (safely) I want.

Thanks for any info...the kernel thing has me confused....
[Verizon Droid Charge] jheide44:
replies in red...

XDA,

I am n00b-ish so feel free to correct me, but if a user isn't planning on poking around under the hood, there is no performance benefit from a deodexed ROM. (i.e. the bits in the.odex file will load prior to the.apk stuff making it just a hair "snappier".)

end of the day it probably doesn't matter... For example, Tweaked 3.2 that we all LOVE on FP5 was deodexed :) (although a hardcore proper computer science person could explain the ODEXing benefits till the cows come home)

So to your point, just rooting Stock ODEXED FP8 is a fine option as well.
[Verizon Droid Charge] wetwaterdog:
Thanks for the quick reply....I am a little confused by this one....

"might be back on stock recovery after that first reboot"

How would I know? Would I lose root? Why is stock recovery different from stock kernel? Sorry for not getting it.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jheide44:
Reading the links below helped me wrap my mind around some of this stuff... You should also search the XDA Q&A threads...

Kernel and recovery are separate... not related.

Custom Recovery if you boot into recovery from...

extended power options menu, or

initial startup key combination (Vol up + Home + Power... let all there go at Sammy Logo), or

ADB (specifically "ADB reboot recovery")

and see "the bannana", you have custom recovery(0817 anyway). It will also say "CWM Based Recovery" with some version numbers. (Not sure what stock recovery looks like, I only saw it once.... years and years ago.)

Given your scenario, you will probably keep root given the work Diwth did for you. If you wan to understand/appreciate what was done check this out...

Very well put.

While you brought it up is the 0817 recovery the 'orange' one?

What's the easiest way to make a nandroid back up.

The one time I did and restored, I had the second worst brick in my life (haha, you already know about my worst one). It was so bad I was ordering an S4 before it came back to life.... still decided to purchase the S4 though.

needless to say I got all my Droid Charge **** together after that (except for the .PIT) and the nandroid backup part is my last loose end
[Verizon Droid Charge] jheide44:
Replies in red...

I've added additional descriptions to the download site, here... http://tweakedrom.com/Other_Files/Droid_Charge_SCH-I510.php

for a nandroid restore just follow the same CWM menu's but select RESTORE for the last option. I've only ever had success from the "orange" v4.0.1.4... imnuts 0817 version of the recovery.

Others have reported success on the "blue" version when using ext4 file system. I've never tried that personally (only seen errors with restoring on RFS).

congrats on the S4...

maybe you will try my little WIFI only music player ROM on the old SCH-I510 :)

hope to have another beta pulled together soon-ish...
[Verizon Droid Charge] Stauf99:
Mucho Thanko, I skimmed somewhere a long time ago (well, 1 month) that it had to do with file format but was too distraught/excited to look into it.

Sammy has had my phone for longer than i have because of warranty issues so my trusty DCharge has been my lifeline.

because of Verizon and Sammy the S4 has been more trouble than it's worth so far, the final judgment will be thur when I get my replacement. Still, thanks all the same.

I'll totally give the WiFi only version a try. May not be till around chrismas break though with classes about to start up again and all that drama. I love that idea and would be perfect to have that and a fancy new tweaked so i can just nandroid back and forth to meet both my needs :cyclops:

edit: I really plan on using my 'retired' buddy to be a securty/ whatever camera

Fun Fact: the newer tiny SIM cards totally work in the DCharge, just line up the strips correctly. There's definitely extra room but is snug enough that it STAYS there!

1.Install drivers.

2.Install KDZ Flash Tool.

3.Turn off your phone. Connect phone via cable USB and pressing volume + and power (without battery). On screen shows emergency mode with yellow background.

4.Open KDZ and:

a) 3GQCT + EMERGENCY

b) 3GQCT + CS EMERGENCY

Disaster recovery software for LGMobile Support Tool rather not work. But you can check it.

Good evening,

I followed the steps of the this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37554849

In the fifth step of "How to root (Works on ANY Huawei stock firmware, except B130 EmUI)" it doesn't work.

When I write "fastboot devices" it just says "? fastboot".

The ADB worked and I've installed all the drivers.

Well, the only thing that was different was that on this instructions it says that when I'm in fastboot mode the device is called "Android 1.0" but my device was called "Blaze".

After I installed the fastboot drivers it's called "Android Bootloader Interface".

What should I do now?

Thank you in advance.

I had the same experience. I think the drivers are installed correctly somehow when you see "? fastboot". Because when I tried to flash a custom recovery, it just worked! :D You should try it for yourself.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcdfusion:
Hi,

This is my brother's phone, and he tells me he went to use it the other day and the phone was off. When he turned it on it would show the "Sony Ericsson" screen, then the AT&T logo and back to the Sony screen, and the loop continues. The only way to make it stop is to remove the battery.

His phone is stock and has never been rooted or unlocked. I tried flashtools but can't use it because the phone has a locked boot loader. I tried to unlock it through the Sony mobile site, but can't because it asks to go to the menu of the phone which I cannot do for obvious reasons to verify if it is unlockable. I tried to do so anyway, but the instructions say that you press the "search" key while connecting it to the computer and a BLUE LED would turn on, this phone turns on Orange. At this point I am stuck and don't have a clue what can be done now.

What I really want is to just get the phone working, it doesn't matter if it goes back to stock or if it will have a custom firmware, just to get it working again.

I appreciate if someone points me to the right direction on what I can do to restore the phone. Any tutorials or instructions related to this specific issue. I have found multiple threads similar to this but all involved previously rooted/unlocked phones. Also, I mostly use Linux so any instructions for Linux users would be great.

Thanks

You don't. Need to unlock it top use flash tool. Download an ftf for the phone. And choose flash mode in flash tool. Then choose the ftf you want to flash. And it will tell you to unplug the phone and plug it back in while holding the back button. A green led should turn on then it should flash the data and reboot and it will be back to stock
