3. You have to hold down all 3 button until you feel the vibration, then you can release the power button & keep holding the other 2. When stuff comes on the screen (with blue text in the upper left corner), you can let go of the other buttons.

2. You can try CWM touch recovery, or TWRP.

I downloaded the touch recovery from CWM site. It is a .img file. I am used to things being in a ZIP to be flashed. How do I use an .img?
[General Questions and Answers] post-mortem:
You can do it from a computer, using adb; or you can put the file on the phone & do it on the phone using a terminal emulator.

For the Samsung Galaxy S3 (AT&T) [d2att], the command to flash the .img file onto the recovery partition is:

su

dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilename.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18

It's vital you type the above command correctly. This is what I used for my phone (also a d2att), and you can see it on it's TWRP page, but don't just one guy's word for it. Especially if someone advises you to use the dd command, always verify the command before blindly trying it.

Trying to modify images in APK

Hello everyone!

I tried to replace a couple of PNGs inside the APK Handcent (replacing emoticons). I opened the APK in WinRAR, deleted the PNG I wanted to replace, then added the new one using the "store" option as compression level.

When I try to install this APK, it starts out okay, but then during install cancels the installation and only says that the app was not installed.

Any ideas? Thank you!

I would probably venture to say no. But I don't know enough to say that is definitely a problem.

There are a few apps available, including Google Play, to check if the device was rooted properly. Here are some.

Try it and see what it says. If it's rooted properly, then it's probably 'normal' for your phone. Or maybe there is another issues (unrelated to rooting).

Hope this helps.

HTC One M8 (AT&T) Soft-Brick Bootloop

Hey everyone, I'm new to XDA and am a bit of a noob at flashing so take it easy on me :)

Here's my problem: As implied by the title, my AT&T One M8 is stuck in a bootloop at the white HTC screen and won't boot me into my rom. Something to note is that there's a little open gray lock icon at the bottom of the white screen. After a moment the screen just takes me to Philz recovery. Also, the phone was previously rooted and is currently S-On (no firewater support for AT&T yet), with my custom recovery (Philz). Unfortunately, I did not make a backup of my phone (I know, bad move) but at this point I just want the thing to work properly!

What happened: With a stock GPE Rom by Graffixnyc, I installed Google's stock recovery in hopes of recieveing the 4.4.4 OTA; the rom I had was 4.4.2. A day later I get the 4.4.4 OTA, accept and install it, and then that's what started the bootloop. I haven't gotten back into the OS since. In addition, my computer does not recognize my device when it's connected, although fastboot and adb commands do work.

What I've tried: Flashing through both TWRP and Philz, trying two different GPE roms. Neither worked, even through adb sideloading I get the same error. To transfer files from my computer to phone I've been using a micro SDcard with an SD adapter. I've also tried doing a factory wipe through Philz and even flashed a 'fix permissions' emulator.

I'd imagine that I need a One M8 factory image just for a fresh clean start, but apparantly HTC only has one for the unlocked developer edition. Would I be able to use this version of the factory image/obtain one for the AT&T model or is there a different route I need to go?

Thanks in advance for the help; this seems like a great community to be involved in!!

Install custom ROM onto nearly-dead Galaxy S

So, I received some help here with my Galaxy S that will not boot past the Galaxy S screen. I was advised to install a custom ROM, as I can not get my computer to communicate with the phone, therefore I can not flash the firmware with help of Odin.

So, I got a micro SD and put the zip-file for Cyanogenmod on it. But to be honest, I don't know what to do now. I thought I'd be able to access it from recovery mode, but I don't know how.

I tried the 'apply sdcard:update.zip', and it says:

"can't mount SDCARD... your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions. Copy default media content failed.

Install from sdcard...

finding update package....

opening update package...

verifying update package...

E: failed to open /mt/internal_sd/update.zip (no such file or directory)

E: signature verification failed

Installation aborted

So, it seems to look after a zip file on the internal SD.

Anyone got an idea as to what is wrong? Should I proceed otherwise?

Thanks in advance,
