[Droid Incredible General] HTC Incredible (ADR6300):
Just bought a new one

Received a new one in the mail today, can't wait to get it going.

I'm trying to fix a hand-me-down that keeps force closing on everything. I can't even delete apps off it(I assume the NAND is bad).

I have a thread started if you have time. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=41863429#post41863429

Anyway I just use the phone as a Wi-Fi mini tablet, internet, camera, notepad, everything except talking on it.

Right now I'm charging the battery and will search for a video on bypassing activation, as I don't need a data plan.

I really do appreciate your video(s) (and the quality) on doing the S-off as I am having problems with step #32 and yours worked as described, it was so nice to actually

SEE

somebody making it work. :good:

I noticed when typing adb shell

I get ~#

And you get #

I think that's the problem as to why I can't flash the /data/flash_image I need too move forward.:confused:

Again Thanks for Quality Videos

To Bypass activiation just keep pushing activate and then hang up phone or back i dont remember then repeat until it boots into setup

My wife has it as a backup phone (a prepaid account is attached to it) that mostly stays in the car and my son plays with it during the car ride. Don't know whether due to the Infected ROM or not, this device runs smoother than my HTC One (CM10.1 as well) device :confused:

Excellent device even after so many years (although it collected dust for more than a year).

Is my incredible bricked?

Over a year ago, I came to alabama for a job, the boss added me to his contract and I got the HTC incredible with verizon for free. After a month I met somebody, the boss saw the bill (he was looking for more than being a good boss) and he had the service turned off in my name. For a few days I was able to use the phone through my internet wifi, than one day the phone froze, shut down and I have never been able to turn it on since. The battery was fully charged when this happened.

I believe the phone was somehow deactivated, it never had gotten wet, I even bought a fancy waterproof cover for it, so I believe the guy called and said the phone was stolen or something. I was wondering if it was now useless or could it be saved?

busybox install fails

Thank you for the videos. Walked me right through it until I get to installing busybox, where it just hangs. I've tried three different su.zip and three different busybox installers, so I'm guessing that I'm not really rooted even through busybox installer says that i am on the main screen. I'm sure i'm just doing something stupid or missed a step and would greatly appreciate any further help.

Thank you - one question

Hey Tomsgt, Thank you for your videos.. I for one still am using my Incredible and have come here to try and keep it alive as I have an unlimited 3G data plan. I hope by your comment it does not mean there will be no more great ROMS for this phone... I do have one question though.. is Carbon ROM still availably and if so can you help with a link? I want to give it a try as I am mostly interested in making my phone work better.

Thanks from a senior newbie..

NOTE: I looked harder at the bottom of your video and found the links.. unfortunately you must be over you download quota because I can't grab it from there.. going to look for it here in the forums.. thanks

I could not get to page 2 kept telling me I had to log in again then errors out in confirming disclaimer. Had to select All other supported models to get to the screen where you past the token. At least that worked and I got the unlock token just fine. With the commands from the video was able to unlock my boot loader. Thanks for the information.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eladkatz:
Hi all,

I'm on a stock AT&T htc one and lately I have been experiencing an issue where I notice that the phone is not connected to wifi and when I go into the settings and click on Wi-Fi, the screen just turns to black and hangs.

I can still hit the home button and go back and everything works, and if I restart the phone I can go into the wifi settings but sure enough, later in the day, it will happen again.

Has anyone else experienced that?

Any ideas on how to solve it?

Thanks!
[General Topics] i3oyi3astos:
So here's the thing, on any cellphone, whenever an SMS comes in, a sound or tone can be set for it, and when you open the message, the sound stops. On an xda2, the sound just continues even though you already opened and read the SMS.

Can this be altered in the registry?

I cant use long SMS sound notifiers because, every time an incoming SMS is received, the whole sound clips plays and its annoying.
[General Topics] Robson:
mate, you saying that the sound played for your sms is continuous but not repeating? that's what happens when the sound/wav file used for the notification is too long; i think the unit will keep on playing it until the whole file is finished. similar to your alarms; unless you click it off the unit will finish the sound or loop it (if you want it too). if this is the case you can just change the wav file assigned to the sms notification...a shorter one would help..

cheers
[General Topics] i3oyi3astos:
yup, its continuous, even after opening the SMS. A long SMS notifier would be okay, but as ive said, its annoying if while im reading the SMS, the sound still plays. Hope theres a workaround for this.
[General Topics] ezzkht:
Yeah its really annoying when you can't stop the sound while reading the message! :?

I was forced to assign a 1 sec length wav file instead of my favourite sound :(

I wonder why they didn't solve this issue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[General Topics] davidand1:
Turning the sound off when you go to look at the message usually works for me
[General Topics] ezzkht:
well, its not that practical way to do so....!! :!:
[General Topics] i3oyi3astos:
It could work, but its still a 2 step process. DCS? Waxx? ZeroExtreme? Any answers to this? :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] Ch@rly:
My C6503 is rooted with the locked BL, but again with .434 rom.

I want upgrade to .253, but with keeping my root and without all deleted.

I see that if I upgrade via OTA, I keep my root.

But an upgrade via OTA it's impossible with recovery.

As I don't want all deleted and install all (I'll do that for the 4.2.2), I search a solution for deleted my recovery,

We have an idea for just delete CWM ?

Otherwise I'll wait for 4.2.2 and install everything properly
[Sony Xperia ZL] sturmtruppler:
Try flashing just the stock kernel from a ftf file for your device through flashtool. If you changed anything in \system also flash system.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Ch@rly:
Just the kernel ?

Where I found it for the C6503 ?
[Sony Xperia ZL] sturmtruppler:
There are several ftf files around on this forum, e.g. from Bin4ry. Download the one for your phone, flashing kernel will overwrite cwm.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Ch@rly:
Resolved with new install (Rom 4.2.2)

[HTC Wildfire S] Rahul2929:
Hi, You are not rooting your phone at HTC Dev.com bt unlocking your bootloader, after that you can install CWM(Clock Work Mod) Recovery and finally root ur device...............

Bt dont worry u dont have to follow complicated procedures as hasoon2000 have made a tool for newbies to achieve rooting in easy way...

[HTC Wildfire S] nitinvasu4:
thanks for the information.i want some more.plz tell me about these things and there need

1.Clock work recovery

2.HBOOT

3.kernel

Thanks in advance.....####:good:
[HTC Wildfire S] crossfire77:
1) clockworkmod is custom recovery,it's most essential thing after unlocking your bootloader.

by this you can flash custom roms,mods etc.

2) HBOOT is when you remove battery and press power+volume down button.it's hboot menu by this you can select recovery,fastboot etc.

3) kernel is connect hardware to software.in short most essential thing in linux environment.

rooting any device is just you add root permissions.main job is unlock the bootloader then you can add custom recovery (clockworkmod)

that's it.after for root permissions you can flash root.zip (it's zip file contains one su binary and superuser app)

hope you get it.

so steps are :

unlock bootloader

flash custom recovery

add root permissions by custom recovery.

Hey guys , I've already searched the boards for this and there were a few people posting about this issue aswell but they've stopped posting for about a week now...

I am having an i9500 (octa core version) and running United Arab Emirates	2013 June	4.2.2	I9500XXUBMEA	I9500OJVBMEA	firmware (stock , no root) , frequently when the phone is locked it will shut down on it's own and I have to keep the power button held a bit longer than usual for it to start (like 20 seconds) , I do not want to root it because the company I bought it from is not that...good....so I am very afraid of sending it to their service department , please , any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Can u reset the device and see if this issue is solved

Some more option u can try is close all running app after using it by pressing home button and use 3rd option

See if that helps
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTudoRR:
Hey mate ! :) Thanks for the reply , I tried reseting to factory settings , wiping cache and flashing other firmwares , different firmwares cause different issues like screen freezes , crashes etc. This one just makes the s4 turn off sometimes while being locked.

It's not from any apps as long as it's nothing stock related ( I do use S Health and the likes )
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Well cant say what is causing the issue actually but u flash a stock firmware indian one get it from sammobile.com

and after u flash the firmware reset the device install nothing and see whats the result

What is the purpose of installing a firmware and then resetting the device ? :) I've never reset after I flashed a firmware I think
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTudoRR:
I have found a way to reproduce this!

It happens MOSTLY when I unplug it from the usb cord and lock it (by pressing the button :) ) after leaving it locked for 5 minutes 'ish

Any help guys ? please , I don't want to have to send it to the shop where they'll keep it for 2-3 weeks...

EDIT : Also I wanted to ask , did I void my warranty by flashing firmwares for the i9500 from sammobile.com ? (I did no rooting , only stock firmwares)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
B4 this new update u must be having a old update and after u flashing a new update also all the data remains same in the phone and that the main reason you are having this issue

If u reset the device all the file folders apps will be reset to work with new update u will not regret if u do this trust me

And don't worry if u have only flashed stock firmware u are safe with warranty

---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 AM ----------

I had the similar issue on my note 2 after installing a MIUI rom which was posted and in that case the moment i click LOCK button it used to get stuck / powerr off

and the issue was later solved by flashing a rescue firmware.. was something related to kernal which caused that issue

Does not matter which firmware u had b4 u can still flash 2 /3 diffrnt firmware which are stock and do reset after flashing u will get rid of this issue for sure

And if that also does not wrk then there myte be a hardware issue i hope thats not the case
