Yeah, there's a lot of no's, there should be a yes in the middle though?

Go to the recovery.img I sent, that one is much easier to use, there's a single option that wipes everything for you, it has a much better user interface too.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
That is the image I'm using.. [blue letters, black/dark green or something background.. is that it?]

The custom rom doesn't show up in it though

I choose a zip from the sd card and it's not there. just a bunch of folders.. android, Camera360, DCIM, etc... am I suppoused to put the ROM.zip [in this case Viperdhd2.3.0.zip or Cyanogen10.1.zip?]
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Its the file name of the ROM's zip you downloaded, they're usually at the bottom, the recovery is 4Ext Recovery Touch right?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
I lost you bro.. It was called recovery.img that's what I know, and it's using touch. but it's name is clockworkmod.

anyway, I clicked reboot recovery by mistake and now there's this increasing number suddenly..

It's not stopping, already in 5857

what have I done? o:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Yeah, Clockwork Mod has a lot of issues, you flashed the one that came with the root tool, download the image from my other post and quickly flash it, you should be familiar with the process?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Yup, it's still the same. You're talking about the Recovery.zip from page 2, right? if so then it's clockworkmod..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Hmm, lemme flash one and get back to you
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Okay, thanks man.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Meanwhile I started with clockwork mod and flashed the viperDHD but it didn't change anything, it said the rom was installed, but everything stayed exactly as it were, same old 2.3.5 HTC.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Yeah, clockworkmod is pretty much screwed up, i flashed the recovery i gave you, it is indeed 4EXT Recovery, ill give you another attachment, it seems like CWM isn't writing or reading partitions, which is odd. Delete the old recovery.img and replace it with the one on this post
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Oh my gooddd.. Once again I managed to somehow screw things up.

It appears I have only downloaded part of the cyanogen file, and I flashed it. and now after being stuck in the cyanogen logo for eternity it booted into a black screen.. still with clockworkmod. :( I don't stop screwing things up.. how am I going to fix it?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
:o Hold down volume down and power, use the volume keys to select Recovery, hit power to boot into recovery, I still think that the recovery you have is pretty screwed though, oh, and re download the CyanogenMod ROM

[MENTION=4410610]humzaahmed155[/MENTION] How am I going to mount the sd card to the computer?

Oh wow, got it working! [the usb] thank you!!

EDIT: Is this the rom?

http://www.techgeekal.com/2013/01/14/cyanogenmod-10-1-jellybean-4-2-1-for-htc-desire-hd/

EDIT: downloaded it, black screen after the cyanogen boot, for a split second the screen turned on and I could see the lock screen, then in went black.

Touch is working and the buttons work aswell.

Strange, what's up with the phone?

EDIT2: I think it's automatic brightness turned on, whatever it is, the screen is completly dark and the automatic brightness has to be disabled somehow..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Hmm, that's awkward try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2093845
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
That's the file I have.

and it's working, problem is that auto brightness.

I am familliar with the problem, I think it might be something with my phone, but all roms I've flashed 'till now had screwed up auto brightness from the beginning.

problem is, with other roms the auto brightness actually worked and in a very dark room I could see 10% or so, so I could go to the settings and disable it.

Here I can't for some reason..
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Settings > System > Status Bar

Enable the brightness control, its the quickest way of changing the brightness, drag your finger down the status bar to adjust it
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Got it. the problem was making the screen produce enough brightness for me to even see anything.. thanks!!

Now the wifi doesn't authenticate.. it says there's a problem authenticating or something :rolleyes:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
Hmm, you're running into a lot of problems, go to recovery and flash the ROM, don't do anything else, don't even wipe the data, just flash the ROM :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YagFrazier:
Everything works now! phew. thank you for suggesting CM otherwise I would've never used it, it's brilliant. I can't believe - finally after 6 pages and 2 more weeks [in which I first tried to figure out myself] I'm finally on a different rom!

So comfortable, so many options to choose from. :) it's a bit slow though, and gets apps and browsers get unresponsive quite alot

But it's worth it. thanks!

But there's something really annoying.. the crazy battery drain.

In 10 or so minutes it reduced from 93% to 89%

And I haven't even been doing or playing anything, just moving apps around, installing google chrome and trying to force close 2 unresponsive apps
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
The battery does indeed drain a lot, also, to speed up the phone, hold the home button down and swipe away all the running apps, this closes them and frees up RAM too

Hi there,

I have the galaxy s2 from about a year ago, bought it form Dubai. Anyways till now I still didn't get the jelly beans update 4.1.2 and I'm stuck with the 4.0.3. I'm starting to face some problems with my device and I think this is because bugs in the 4.0.3, the device over heats while charging or when I have my wifi or 3G on. I downloaded the "AOKP MR1 Milestone 1 ROM for Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 (Exynos)" along with "Gapps" but didn't install them yet:

The only problem is that in order to install the new rom I have to flash my device and root it and I'm not really happy with that. Is there a safe way to get the jelly beans update 4.1.2 without rooting my device. I tried the over the air update but it said no updates found, I also tried kies and still no luck. What can I do to get the new update without having to erase everything on my device.

Also can I take a backup copy of my ROM in case I format "flash" my device for any reason. I want to take a complete backup of everything on my phone including the unrooted original firmware 4.0.3 that it came with so that even if I install any other rom I can flash it and get back with my original one, is this possible.

Please help, looking forward for your repiles

I'm actually very new to xda, I've been searching for about 4 days now and currently I'm reading other similar threats on xda. But I don't really know where or what to search for. All I want to do is update my phone without flashing it, also if it's possible to take a backup copy of my original firmware please reference me where to start. Didn't mean to bother or bug anyone here, it's just that I'm very new to this

No hard feelings
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
You need to root to bk up what you have now mate. 4.0.4 is the brick bug firmware not 4.0.3 . Do you want to root your phone.? Do you want to put a custom rom or Samsung rom on your phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theunderling:
Just go to sammobile.com firmware page.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
Thanks for your reply, how do I root my phone and after I root it what do I need to download to backup everything. I don't really prefer to have a custom rom on my device but I have no problem trying anything on at as long as I have a copy of the original firmware where I can restore it back.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
Thanks I'll check it out, what do I look for so I can make sure that it's compatible with my GT-I9100 device, or are they all compatible depending on which region I choose. Currently I'm in Egypt So whats the best firmware to download :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gastonw:
Get whatever ROM you want.

Worst case, flash a new modem.

Sent from the little guy
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Lsw is the new one. Uk base but as gastonw said it dont matter just download your modem you have now so you can restore it later "apriliam3 for them". To root get a dori ics kernel and flash that either with odin "tar" or in recovery "zip with sig" put on ext sd and update in stock recovery and that will give you root and cwm recovery when you have done that go back into recovery and do a nandroid bk up there. Get titanium back up in playstore and bk up your apps with. I link my contact's with google so they restore easily.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gregrin:
Just see chow to flash ROM's witch odin and choose ROM from Samsung development sub forum.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
Thank you all for your replies,

I managed to root my device and advised by all of you, and I made backup using the cwm that was installed automatically after I successfully rooted it. In the backup folder that was created I noticed a file called "system.ext4.tar" is this the original android version that came with the phone because as I mentioned above I want to be on the safe side and have a backup of my original OS that came with the phone in case of anything went wrong then I can restore everything including the original current android version. Second step that I want to do is to flash my phone and install the jellybeans. I found two version version 4.1.2 which I know is compatible with the phone and version 4.2.2 but I'm not really sure if it's compatible or not. So what do you guys suggest I should install on my device :)

looking forward for your replies :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Get ktool of play and bk up efs :thumbup: go with what you want 4.1.2 stock/custom or 4.2.2 custom. its up to you just make sure you flash right rom for your phone model

Dont want or need your thanks its polite to say thanks to some one who helps you. What do you want stock or custom. Dont ask me to pick.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
A special thanks goes to andrewwright :) I prefer stock but I don't have any problems trying custom since custom gives more features :)

If you would tell me how to do both I'll be more than happy. I think both are flashed in the same way but correct me if I'm wrong
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
For stock sammoblie.com.

For custom gooim playstore app. Have you rooted yet? Mr1 milestone is a good choice as is solid.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:

I've downloaded the stock firmware v 4.1.2 from samsung-updates.com but I didn't install it yet on my cellphone, I also don't have any problems installing custom firmwares on my device as long as they are safe and wont bust my phone. I've also downloaded the AOKP MR1 Milestone 1 ROM for Galaxy S2! [GT-i9100/i9100G/SGH-T989/SGH-i777] firmware and I'm not sure wither this is a stock or a custom firmware from the following link

Download the app of play store for gooim. You wont go wrong with that. Trust in that app for good downloads and even if it get cut of sig it will carry in from were it stopped:thumbup: it sorts the md5 if its wrong it doesn't complete the download don't search look for compatible Roms. And download the gapps also. Iv never had a bad flash from that simple app
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
Thanks bro, I'll download gooim right away from the play store. How do I know which rom I have...

One question though if I ever want to go back to my old 4.0.3 that came with the phone would the backup that I made using the CWM allow me to flash my old 4.0.3 back and how would I do that
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
To do a nandroid goninto recovery and do it. Don't worry about preload as it don't have it. You could also do one with orange back up. An app also of playstore. Gooim app finds your model for you. Don't use search as will bring alsorts of Roms you cant have. Just compatible roms have you backed up efs? Ktool of play too mate will do this. Gs2 repair also dose this
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
I've downloaded Ktools from the playstore but I don't know how to use it. I'm very glad to talk to an expert person like you, would u please guide me on how to make a full backup of everything (Android 4.0.3, picture, videos, contacts, and messages) using the Ktool

Also where do I get the nandroid goninto recovery tool from. It;s just that I'm very afraid that I lose everything and the new flash doesn't work then I will lose everything. I just need to know how to make a backup and how to restore it before I actually flash it to the new 4.1.2 version to be on the safe side :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Expert lol! :thumbdown: I'm not. Ktool is easy to use. Go into it and Bk up efs that's it in that. Go to recovery and look for Bk up and Bk it up. If you cant do that you need to read more mate I cant help you do the lot. What's the point in it for you then? I don't no about Odin but cement don't format int or ext sd unless you ask it to. If you want info on Odin you need to read about that I no pretty much nothing about it
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
I've successfully backed up using Ktool, With this backup can I resote my phone back to 4.0.3 after flashing to 4.1.2 or do I need to make other backups. The Ktool created an efs.tar.z file and efs.img file as well, are those two file my current android version4.0.3 I mean do I use these files to resotre to my old 4.0.3 after flashing to 4.1.2. I remember yesterday you mentioned something about nandroid backup. I have the CWM installed on my phone after I rooted it and I made a backup and a file named "system.ext4.tar" was created along with "nandroid.md5" , "cache.ext4.tar" , "boot.img", and "data.ext4.tar" are thse the files that if I want to restore I should use, are those the current firmware with all of my data including the (pictures, messages, videos..etc.) if so whats the next step to flash the new 4.1.2 mate :)

I'm just afraid as I mentioned before to lose everything and for some reason I want to go back to my old version and restore everything as it was. So I want to be on the safe side and have a backup of everything

Thanks mate looking forward for your further reply :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Nandroid Bk up. In recovery.do a efs with gs2repair too. Better to have two Bk ups. Copy nand and copy of efs on sd that is not in phone too. Me I have. Modems kernels roms firmware nands efs's and loads of others things I may need on sd card away from my phone tucked up in safe place.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m007mobond:
Is gs2repair an app, if so where do I get it from mate :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Play store. I'm done now after this post btw. Not being funny mate but to flash a custom Rom or any thing is ok but you need to learn how to do this for your self. Also learn how to fix a problem if it go's wrong. Your phone is now pretty much safe as long as you read and learn. Iv helped you Bk up your phone which is a good thing for any one to help with. Good luck and take care :thumbup::cool:

[HTC One X] maattttyy:
Hi,

So I dropped my UK one X the other day, the fall was so bad the LCD popped from the frame and tore the ribbon cable for the LCD.

Now, I've ordered the replacement screen and after a strip down and rebuild which lead to removing the battery the new screen is now blank (phone charges and seems to power on)

After doing a quick search on this it is all pointing around syncing the screens - which I cannot do due to the broken ribbon cable on the old...

Any ideas how I can get this working without the syncing process?

It is rooted with a custom rom if that helps.

Thanks, Matt

I have an ipaq 5455 that I have been going around and around with tech support about. they say It has a corrupted rom, but I can load ppc 2002 or 2003 at will and it works for the most part. The problem is that it will not update the wifi , fingerprint or bluetooth drivers no matter what I do . Bluetooth continues to have the problems that are encountered in the old driver and the driver release dates are wrong for the drivers loaded. the driver for wifi shows a release date of 2-9-2005 and the wifi driver version is not shown anywhere on hp's site.

what appears to be happening here is that in a non user accessable area of rom , some of the driver files are incorrectly listed as read only and the rom update cannot update them, I have tryed moving , renaming , deleting and generally beating on the files for bluetooth and they will not budge.

hp support told me the device is out of warranty and wants 80 usd just to look at it and they will call me with a quote to fix it. I am reliant on the gps for work and cant be without it for a week. can someone ( possibly an ex hp tech) suggest what diagnostic tools will allow me to fix the non user accessable area of the rom that is the problem here??

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a bit of a long shot, but you culd have a look at www.handhelds.org you may be able to use the tools there to wipe the rom and then reflash from the newer hp rom packs. I did this with my 5550, to try linux on it (it's pretty good, but not quite there yet), and my ppc is back running 2003 fine. The forums are pretty informative too.
[Off-topic] shteev:
what did you do exactly??

i searched handhelds .org and this does seem risky for me .

you went through loading linux and then restored your ppc 2003 from a backup or a new rom image that they had specicically for that device???

what I gather is that the rom is only updated by the hp ppc 2003 upgrade and this is not changing the corrupted files in my rom hense the problem continues.

you loaded linux which changed the firmware rom of your 5555 and then loaded back from a backup or from a new image from handhelds.org???

was it familiar you loaded and where did you get the restoration rom from?
[Off-topic] shteev:
ok , i dont think that will work

i found the page where they talk about restoring win ce , and they have a tool that extracts the file from the softpaq file compaq/hp puts out , mind you when i talked to hp 2nd level tech support they stated this is only an update to the rom and does not completely replace it , therefore given the state of my rom i dont think the linux install would even work as it would not be able to un write protect the files that are locked down.

what i really need is the tool hp uses to flash the rom or diagnose problems with it , since this handheld is out of warranty the patent on such software should be gone , all i need to do is find it. Im not about to pay 80 bucks for something i could fix myself if hp was not such money grasping gluttons. someone surely has had this issue and fixed it so that someone could help. any ex hp techs out there have any advice????
