[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
What recovery do you currently have installed?

If you dont have 4ext, i would recommend installing it. It has a usb unbrick feature, which may solve your problem.

Since the sd card isnt recognized the best way to install it would be through fastboot.

Setup adb/fastboot using this guide. Also make sure you install these fastboot drivers

-Download the 4ext recovery img from here

-Extract the zip and put the recovery img in your android-sdk/platform-tools/ directory

-Boot the phone into bootloader (volume down and power), then go into fastboot mode

-From your computer open command prompt and run the following command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

If it succesfully installs, boot into the bootloader and then go into recovery. Next go into the Tools section and select USB unbrick
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonji:
I've got all of these already. If I didn't I wouldn't be able to write fastboot doesn't work.

I've got RA-desire-v2.0.1 recovery software.

When I tried flashing your recovery I received "Program fastboot has stopped working." Windows message.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abaaaabbbb63:
Install the 4ext app and install the recovery. No need for fastboot if your rom is rooted.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
Yep, sorry. For some reason i thought that he couldnt boot into the rom.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonji:
There goes the next problem:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
You can use adb to install apks. Download the 4ext recovery app, place it in the platform tools directory and run the following command while the rom is booted up:

adb install 4EXTRecoveryUpdater.apk
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonji:
Installed the app, however, when I try to start it I'm getting a message that my SD card has to be mounted to use the app. :crying:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
Ok so if that doesnt work i think your only option is fastboot. You cant use PB99IMG cause you have to put that on the sd card.

I dont think usb brick should affect the use of fastboot. Try redownloading the sdk, and try different usb ports.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliensk:
re

just download the flashable recovery zip and inside ull get recovery img. then start the phone into fastboot (back+power) and flash the recovery with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img then reboot bootloader, get to recovery and try in the tools the usb unbrick options. first time recovery will start really sllow it will count to 60 trying to mount the sd card but dont worry will start even when it fails to mount it. after the usb unbrick ull restart the recovery and ull be able to mount the sd card if the sd brick was the problem. u dont have to try with apk just download the flashable version of 4ext here: http://www.4ext.net/download.php?f=PB99IMG_2.1.3_RC2.zip&device=bravo and inside the archive u have the recovery.img

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonji:
I wanted to try on another computer, however, when I connect my phone in fastboot mode I'm getting unrecognized device in Windows (see attachments).

Installing HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe didn't do the trick.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
U need to install fastboot drivers (google it) once u have downloaded the drivers, extract the zip file and where it says android 1.0 in that pic, right click it then update driver and navigate to the fastboot driver u downloaded and install it.

Something new, when I tried to flash recovery in fastboot, cmd said right after executing the command:

error: out of memory

Any ideas?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonji:
OK guys, I managed to flash 4EXT recovery via fastboot! What a newbie's mistake, I didn't opened 'fastboot' option when phone was running in vol. down + power mode and that was a cause of problem! Now gotta fix memory card problem...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] genseng:
In 4ext under tools run 'usb unbrick' or similar. Make sure you reboot into recovery. If it worked then 4ext will load faster and copy some configuration files to the SD. On some occasions I've had to run usb unbrick more than once to get it to work.

Nice job in getting adb and fastboot going, btw. I'm guessing you have experience with another Android phone?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragonji:
Does not work.

Nope, no experience.

I tried many things, tested another NOKIA 64MB SD card, doesn't work as well. My Adata works under another phone and I even managed to format it using GParted. Do you guys have any other ideas? Is there any chance it's software problem or do I need to change card slot of my phone?

[HTC Droid DNA] rom116:
Does anyone remember on the older versions of sense when you'd unlock the phone the clock would show the wrong time and the hour would flip and the minutes would flip a bunch of the tiles to bring it to the right time? I always thought that was a cool effect. It would be cool if one of the devs could make our weather flip clock do that again. If nobody picks it up no big deal, just thought I'd throw it out there.
[HTC Droid DNA] xlxcrossing:
Yeah that was a nice effect, HTC has phased out a lot of that stuff with each new sense version. I really dislike sense 5, blinkfeed is ****. I want a UI not social media running my phone. The 3D desktop effect has been phased out too.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogwai123:
Hi,

I was redirected to this part of the forum. A friend of mine rooted my samsung mobile Galaxy S I9000 with a android 2.2 version. I cannot contact him anymore to help me with the update and I am really a newbie in this rooting world. So, I am coming on this forum to have some advice. I read information on rooting your device, in which everything is explained very well, but could not find information on how to update once a device was rooted (probably I did not search in the right place). What I did so far is:

1) Taking backup of my pics (by manually drag and drop the folder on my pc), SMS and call logs (with sms backup + app), syncronized my contacts with gmail so that I can recover them later on and backup the music folder. I installed backup Titanium to back up my apps on my SD card.

But now, I am stuck with some questions (could you guide me where to find the information?):

1) Which most recent version of Android is supported on the device I have? Which version will work best?

2) Is there important information that I forgot to back up? + I have a problem with the backup Titanium app. It could reach my root in the beginning, but then the Superuser app updated the binary and from then on my titanium app got stuck when getting access to the root. Any idea how to solve this? Install an older version of the bin.file? How to do that exactly? thanks! => I could fix this problem by installing an older version of superuser in CW recovery. If others have problems with this issue, I can provide help from now on :)

3) Is there a guide with step by step procedure on which files I have to download on my pc and which procedure to follow? Or could you advice me some useful links?

thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :

prepare for ROM & kernel(optional) hunt! go to dev section and choose which JB u wanted.download it together with cm9.1.0 n copy to root of internal sd.

n make sure to flash cm9.1.0 stable from cyanogenmod website (galaxymtd) first from 2.3.6, first flash will bootloop, go back to recovery with 3 combo button. flash again n dont leave recovery.

after done flashing twice (if flash ended too quick, then flash again). direct flash 4.1/4.2 chosen rom, twice (first flash will come up with error, juz ignore it flash again (bootloop) recovery again n flash again

I followed the guide you mentioned here:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2149455

in which they install that JVU ROM... then they say at the end that you have to unmount SD card (but that option was gray in my case) and wipe the USB storage and then reboot in recovery and do those 4 wipes, what I did, and then he mentioned that you could install your custom ROM, so I put the version of slimrom 4.2.2 on my sd card and launched it for installation.

However, the procedure started, but after a few seconds already my phone rebooted and now it is stuck at the logo of Semaphore...

What did I wrong? And what should I do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogwai123:
Should I shut down my phone and try to put it in download mode again to put the JVU rom on it again via odin? is that the best strategy? Or should I do something else? and if that would work, what is then the best procedure to avoid such situations again?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compacity:
nope, u did rite, but also wrong, ok, read carefully here....

flashing for upgrade is easy if u follow carefully, when in GB, after flashing CF ROOT, flashing to 4.0 (cm9) first (take da zip from cyanogenmod website) but luckily ur on 2.3.6 JVU (if u follow da link i gave), so it will be safe (safe procedure will be GB-ICS-JB), first flash will bootloop, second flash (sometimes) will occur error n third flash will succeed, which means u hav to flash twice or thrice or maybe 4 times! if its bootloop, go to recovery back by 3 button combo (its da matter of when u release da combo button, release it rite after u see da first white bootsplash)

bootloop cause by changing da partition tp ext4, its common

but if u already try to reach recovery n failed most times, u need to flash back firmware n cf root.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogwai123:
Ok, thanks!!!! this worked!!! I justed flashed cm9 and it works. So, if I understand well now, I can just return in recovery mode and install from zip from sd card to cm10 and then for instance to slimrom? Or between 'two' flashes, I need to follow the last part of the procedure in the link you gave me? So:

"Now, what I do now is go into :

Settings > SD Card and Storage > Unmount SD and Wipe that and then at the bottom Wipe Format USB Storage

Enable USB Debugging > Plug in Phone

Window should open up showing your phone Directory..

Copy over your ROM that you want

Shut Down Phone

Reboot into Recovery (Vol UP - Menu - Power)

Wipe the 4 things (probably know these... you should do)

Data / Factory Reset

Cache Partition

Go to Advanced > OK

Dalvik Cache

Battery Stats

Go Back > OK

To move Up or Down > Use the Left Side Volume Rocker Switches with Menu to OK Action

Install your Custom ROM from Zip Card that you want..."

OR: can I just go to recovery mode and do install from zip without doing that procedure with "wipe" etc?

Just to know, as I am just a newbie in these things!!! But I want to thank you once again for the clear explanations and the good help!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compacity:
juz flash mate :), its easy, da important thing is to follow da sequence, thats all, juz flash, wiping cache or resetting juz for changing ROM. not upgrading

juz FLASH it

GB-ICS (twice)(do not leave recovery after second flash)-(any custom JB ROM u choose(twice or thrice))(make sure u already put da zip file in internalsd). dont need any wiping.

but FLASH AT UR OWN RISK,remember that. :D

n yes, recovery need hardbutton except TWRP recovery.

Thanks!!!! Just one small question. I just flashed CM10 in recovery mode and first flash gave error, second went well. Then while still being in recovery mode I directly flashed slimrom and that went well from the first time. Do you always flash a second time to make sure that things went well or this is ok then?

as i already said, flash more than 2 times when upgrading, juz upgrading process. GB-ICS-JB (CM7-CM9-CM10/10.1) is upgrading process.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogwai123:
Hmmm, is probably because I get this error when starting slimrom: invalid IMEI number...I flashed it a second time, but it gave me the same error...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Which gapps have you flashed? Slimbean needs a special package, you find it under slimroms.net.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogwai123:
I will have a look there for that google play problem.

More problematic is that problem of IMEI. When I flashed from CM 9 to CM10 I did not do that wipe of cache and data as suggested above (the reply came later on), and then I flashed slimrom. That I forgot to wipe between CM9 and CM10, can that be the cause of wrong IMEI now? Is the solution now, to wipe cache and data, to flash again CM 10 and to flash then slimrom again?

Or should I just leave everything like that and do a recovery of my efs folder? If yes, any link for this?
