[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:
I downloaded the zip and flashed it via Recovery - but this seems to fail (I don't get any error message, but it simply doesn't succeed).

I also tried unrevoked3.

Do I miss something? My "active time" with the Wildfire was some years ago...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakshan_456:
The zip isn't flashed from recovery. The process is explained in the post which has the zip file attached. Please try following that instructions.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:
I always thought, the recovery-zip-installation would simulate the very same process. I tried this way, too.

However, this didn't work, either ;-(. I put it into SDCARD-root, chose Reboot into Bootloader -> there it seems to check the corresponding ZIP but no questioning to install it...

Maybe some problem of my HBOOT-version? I'm still on 0.8 (and couldn't find any update instructions, yet).

How did you install your recovery? The zip method was posted just at the end of the thread?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lakshan_456:
Yes, I use the pc49.zip method.

And, yes. Maybe your hboot version is causing this. But I'm not familiar with these issues.

Maybe [MENTION=4329146]heavy_metal_man[/MENTION] can help you. As I know he has lot of knowledge regarding these than myself.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
does your phone power on at all? or just the red led flash. this is usually caused my the battery being fully depleted and the bootloader not having enough power to boot at all. if leaving it on charge for 24H+ does not fix the issue then either buy a new battery and/or a external wall charger like this one . you may need an adapter for the wall, depending where you live. This should not fail and in future be careful to never fully deplete your battery ;)

since you rooted your phone using unrevoked your hboots security was never deactivated, just bypassed temporarily. this means that if you know what your doing with root, you can flash a custom recovery but i dont recommend this as its a but outdated. i recommend you upgrade your hboot stock rom and radio using a RUU. then run the program revolutionary to remove the security on your bootloader. then fastboot and pc49img.zip methods will be available to you, so you can flash a more updated recovery without issue :) Since you have fastboot commands set up on your pc please issue the command

Fastboot getvar cid

for me and post the cid here. i will then have a look for you and see if i can find a ruu for you to upgrade easily :)

cheers for the heads up :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
ok, im on the lookout for a RUU for you. can you upload the rom.zip from that program somewhere for me to download. im interested in what it has outputted. also, what hboot and recovery version are you on?

:)

UPDATE: ok we are out of luck for an official update from vodaphone that has hboot 1.01.0001 as they upgraded straight to hboot 1.01.0002. but this is not the end :)

we can use a Goldcard to bypass the htc's check of the phone cid, allowing us to flash other carriers updates. as such we can flash a WWE (world wide english, unbranded) rom with the hboot we need.

follow this part of my guide

step 6. now we need to make a gold card. if you already have one, you can skip this part. first using your working android phone, download and install Goldcard helper from the android market. Run the app and copy down your sd cards reverse cid.

step 7. now go to this website [URL="http://huygens.hoxnet.com/goldcard.html"]here[/URL] and enter in your reverse cid. it will then let you download a goldcard.img.

step 8. now go back to our c:\adb\ folder and run the goldcardtool.exe, this will flash the goldcard to your sd card. Warning! this will format your card!!

step 9. once that is done we are now ready for the final push

once you have made a working goldcard then run the RUU in this download package :) all going well your device will flash the update. if it gives you the error 42, or 131 then the goldcard has failed.

once you have that ran and successfully then reboot and quick setup your phone and then run this tool called revolutionary as this will make your bootloader s-off :)

finally install this recovery here to fix the charging issue. place it onto the sdcard and allow the bootloader to flash the recovery :)

then its just install any custom rom you want pal :)

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
turns out, i believe this is the same as you are downloading from me :P you will still need to have a goldcard functioning and the clickable ruu is more user friendly :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:
I did this with the help of OpenRUU (no Windows here) and it (for the first time) installed the ROM. But my bootloader is still claims to be 0.80?

You're awesome! Thanks!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
Are you sure it installed the rom? The rom.zip that you linked to me earlier, rename it to PC49IMG.zip and put it onto the root of your SD card. Them boot into the bootloader and let it pick it up. If it asks you to flash it say yes, if it does not then your goldcard has failed.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:
Yes - in fact, the provided RUU from the "goldcard and ruu.rar" didn't update the bootloader, but the "original" (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1275680) worked! :good:

Now onto unrevoking, recovery-installing :).

It should be possible, to restore a nandroid backup of my previous ROM? Or should I install from the very beginning (any advice on a stable ROM with landscape-mode support?)?

Thanks a lot!!!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
so you have not upgraded your hboot or ran revolutionary?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:
No - I HAVE upgraded hboot successfully (1.01.0001) with the help of the originally posted ROM (but not the one, which was supplied with the goldcard).

I already unrevoked - now hboot shows 6.01.1002 - is this fine?

I chose to install recovery at the end of the unrevoked process. It installed 4.0.1.4.

Flashed CWM 5.0.2 via recovery. It started, but was lost after reboot! So the install zip from within CWM simply starts the other recovery instead of installing it?

Tried to rename the CWM 5 to "PC49IMG.zip", put it into the root of the SDcard. But it won't be recognized (i can see, that it's parsed but nothing more...)

Will try to install it via fastboot.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
ah, excellent! one last hurdle then :) open up the cwm5 pc49img.zip and remove the recovery.img, then place said image into your fastboot folder. then issue the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img , while your device is connected in fastboot mode ofc.

after that just install a custom rom. your back-up will likely not work with the new recovery as it changed to edify scripting. but there is an app called nandroid manager on the market. you can try using that to restore all your info again.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guntram:
What the heck?

There is no recovery.img in the zip you posted:

How is this zip supposed to be installed?

:(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Easton999GS:
My Galaxy S4 screen is strange. The top of the phone seems to be lighter than the bottom. As in when im texting the and I turn the phone sideways the blue bar that is there is a lighter blue on the left than it is on the right. This annoys me to no end and I want to know if this is normal or not. I also notice this in a ton of other apps when in landscape and it has a bar. Like Youtube.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] quarlow:
I can replicate the issue you are talking about in the messaging app. About an inch of the screen at the top is slightly darker. But only noticeable on certain colors. I tried all sorts of pictures and other things, I can only see it in the messaging all. The issue is there with all screen modes.

The S II had a very similar issue. There was a triangle of screen that was lighter than the rest, and under certain circumstances you could see black splotches. But both issues were only apparent when you worked hard to see it, but never under "normal" use.

From what I understand having a little inconsistency in AMOLED screens is unavoidable. I would rather have this issue than the washed out colors of an LCD screen, personally. I would wager the issue is probably there on every S4 if you look hard enough, it was on every S II I ever saw.

The only issue I saw that I felt was worth getting a new device was burn in. On the Captivate it happened after about 6 months, the S II about 9 months. I'm hoping that Trend (each phone lasting longer than previous gen until it burns in) continues with the Note, S III, Note II, on to the S4.

This seems to be a common issue. I'm on my third s4.

Phone 1: vertical lines

Phone 2: pink tint at bottom (screen darker at the bottom)

Phone 3: pink tint at top (screen darker at the top)

You can try exchanging it but there's no guarantee you will get a better screen. In fact you may get a worse one.

The qc on these phones seem to be pretty awful.

If the problem isn't too bad I would just keep it and try to get used to it.

The galaxy s2 had an issue where the left side of the screen had a yellow tint compared to the right side. Samsung eventually came out with an update to fix this issue. Hopefully they do the same with this problem.

This has been common with quite a few of the phones I've had. It's more of a yellowish tint at the bottom. I read that its most likely the glue that they use and that it will correct itself with time. I just never waited long enough to see if that was the case and always exchanged them.

* Just listening to TuneIn radio during the night as I fall asleep (a tiny 32kbit stream) = 6 hours batterylife on fresh charge. My old SGS2 was still playing radio when I woke up. The SGS4 dies during the night. (even though SGS2 had 1650mAh, and SGS4 has 2600mAh. WTF.)

* Browsing internet using Dolphin and max brightness = roughly 10 hours total, with roughly 3h30m screen time

* some browsing, some poweramp, mostly deep sleep = roughly 20 hours total

* mobile data OFF = 6 hours screen time (which is why mobile data is probably the culprit in my specific case)

I recently installed BBB, and this is what I found on a fresh charge cycle, after about 2,5 hours of using mobile data (screen OFF) and from 100% is now just 85%. again, SCREEN OFF and mobile data has eaten up 15% in 2.5 hours. Ive been downloading stuff, screen on total 5m)

msm_hsic_host (29%)

fast_dormancy (21%)

powermanagementservice (11%)

Ive noticed these three are mostly in the top when using my phone normally during a day.

My phone is 6 days old. Its on the 9th cycle or something like this.

I tried Stock MF8 rom + MF8 kernel (Battery King and Omega)

I also tried GE kernel ausdim, aswell as stock.

I recently upgraded rom to Wanamlites MGA + Adam kernel and I see alot of general improvements as to battery and heating.

Although I am still far from satisfied.

I tried disabling Fast Dormancy using Gokhanmoral app for the S3, but that did not change anything at all. FD still at about 15%+ as it was yesterday with FD Enabled.

My Carrier is 3(SE) which DoES support Fast Dormancy 8.

any advice on the issues, especially the first wakelock which I cant seem to find anything on?!
