[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
I have no idea what HTC Quick Root is, but I'm assuming it gets S-Off.. If you just want to run custom ROMs, you don't need S-Off. Just flash a recovery image from fastboot, then install a ROM zip from recovery, then flash the ROM zip's boot.img from fastboot.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karianos:
after 2 weeks of total depression, i succesfull unlocked my bootloader, and installed the cwm Recovery.

and i read a thread about installing custom roms after unlocking bootloader,

i downloaded the latest cyanogenmod for my desire HD and installed it with the "choose zip from sd" option,

i forgot to make a backup ( biggest fail ever), and now , when i try to start the device, it stops on the "Softbank" logo,

(for 1 week, i completely crashed it, and installed the JP softbank android)

i only wanted a custom rom, and thebest irony was, the most videos said me: "Custom rom in 5 minutes",

can anyone please help me?, thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
Flash the boot.img from the ROM zip using fastboot.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karianos:
which rom.zip?,
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
The one you tried to install...? Didn't you say you downloaded the latest CM?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karianos:
i had installed the: "Softbank JP android version" then i tried to install "cm-7.2.0-ace" the latest Cyanogen mod via CWM Recovery , after this the device didn't started
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bananagranola:
I don't know the softbank one, but the CM one should be packaged in a zip file. Flash it in recovery (sounds like you already did that) and then move it to your computer, unzip it, and flash the boot.img inside it from fastboot. Clearer directions are linked in the Ace Think Tank thread in DHD General.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spykedsystem:
Hello everyone! I just bought a new S3 under contract with Orange,It does not have the brickbug firmware so all is good. However in relation to the rom changing efs partition format i have a question that i couldn't find an aswer for. I tried flashing the XXEMG4 and newer roms but they would not do anything to my phone except giving me emergency calls...however my phone works with older firmware and basebands but not with the new ones.. Could this be because it is sim-locked? and somehow my efs remains unchanged? or did i get it wrong?

RECAP: the phone works only with older firmware and basebands but not with new (efs changing) roms...giving me weird imei and emergency calls on newer roms etc,basically all the problems that people experience AFTER flash MG roms and trying to go back to older.

hello everyone

ı have got one question and ı need to ask

ı installed avast antivirus into my galaxy w and avast is installed for 6 months but avast never found virus or something like that so far

moreover this app is eating 10-15 mb from my ram

do you think this app is really necessary or not? and does this app work perfectly?

so should ı remove avast or not?

ım waiting your answers

best regards
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Yeti12:
I personally had times when I used it for a few months and when I didn't, I have AVG installed on my phone right now but not used, it's greenified so it doesn't take up my ram but it's there just in case. It has never detected a virus when I was using it. I don't exactly know the answer though, doesn't seem needed if you stick to play store apps and not download any suspicious content, otherwise I would leave it installed just in case.

By the way, please use the Q&A section next time you have a question

[App Stores] hytromo:
Hello there!

I am from Greece and I am looking for a way to post my application to Google Play. I am willing to pay the 25$ fee but my country is not listed on the supported countries (cannot post link to the supported countries because of low posts limit).

So, what are my options? May I create a bank account on a foreign bank based on a supported country (and then connect that bank account to my paypal?)

Also, why are some countries not supported? Why Google Wallet cannot be directly connected to Paypal and forward the payments there?

Can someone give a brief explanation about the possible solutions/options?

[To the mods: I know that this is a question but I feel this is the most relevant place to post it, as it is a Google Play experience. If you do not agree with this, please move this to the appropriate location.]
[App Stores] vecio:
I'm facing the same problem, just use your own credit card, register your Google Account, choose a supported country as your country. Then you can join Google Play developer.

But if you want to sell paid apps, you need to open a bank account from the country above. Google doesn't check if you're from that country, just check the bank account.

I've opened two accounts for paid apps in this way.

But Is it allowed to the google rules?

[General Questions and Answers] Michaeljcox24:
Gents,

Apologies if this question has been asked before or I've posted it in the wrong sub section, but I've only ever unlocked one phone in the past, it was an HTC Sense, and it was a sinch. My other half's old man has bought an LGT385 off somone at work, not knowing that you couldn't use a sim from a different network.

Consequently, I have been tasked with unlocking it.

How do you do it? I've seen a couple of videos on YT, but neither of their methods work. I get the impression after researching for an hour or so, it's connected to the IMEI and calculated based on that number (somehow)

Any help would be appreciated as I don't want to take it into town and be ripped off by someone if it's easy to do.

Thanks.

You can find the font Switcher for 4.2+ devices here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.pack.switcher

In order to set the font you must first set your phone's font to one of the pre-installed fonts other than the default font. Then try using the Switcher to set the font.

The other option you have is to try some of our other fonts that are compatible with 4.2.2

Please use the button in the Switcher app to find these apps. *Here are a few examples:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.monotype.android.font.pack.handsome

I''m new to the forum and not as advanced as you all, I have had my nexus 10 unlocked for some time and have been able to install and change roms and even get myself unstuck of a few small problems.

but I can't figure this one out. I updated my cyanogen to 10.1.3 and when I did and the nexus restarted its stuck on the cyanogen symbol when its booting up.. I let it sit there for a while and nothing, I then shut it down and started it up again and nothing.....I then shut it down started it up holding power and volume so I could go in that way and it is still stuck.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
Try reflashing it.

I had an issue with GApps and Kernels and such, and it caused a bootloop. Kept using my Android 4.3 kernel on a 4.2.2 ROM... Did you downgrade from 10.2 to 10.1.x?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kujerry:
How can I reflash it it either stays in Cyanogen loading screen or if it hold down the power and volume up button it goes into the bootloader but it dosen't give any options......it has start at the corner but the robot in the middle days Downloading.... do not turn off target. I have left it on that screen for a couple of hours and nothing. how can I just redo the entire thing.......????
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kujerry:
I hope its not bricked, it also won't shut off, just keeps rebooting if you try to shut it off.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
To get into the bootloader, hold Vol-Up, Vol-Down, and power. Vol-Up/Power is not the bootlaoder config. Then go to recovery, do a factory reset, and just flash the CM image and GApps.

Problem

I cannot flash either Recovery Clockwork (version 5.8.3.4 standard or touch) or TWRP (version 2.6)

I have tried flashing both Recovery Clockwork and TWRP manually through Windows cmd prompt and with ROM Manager Pro

Specs

Asus TF201

Android 4.1.1

Rooted (w/ motochopper)

Unlocked (w/ Asus unlock device v6)

======================================================================================

When booting into fastboot I am presented with four (4) icons on the TF201 screen:

[B]RCK | android | USB | Wipe Data[/B]

-I select the USB icon for fastboot

TF201 displays (in the top left corner. But the screen remains otherwise unchanged, with the four (4) icons still displayed in the center of the screen. Is this usual?:

[I]Starting Fastboot USB download protocol[/I]

Cmd prompt input:

fastboot devices

Cmd prompt display returns:

[I]015d07879b082207 fastboot[/I]

Cmd prompt input:

fastboot -i 0x0b05

Cmd prompt return:

[I]fastboot [ <option> ] <command>[/I]

then displays the available commands and options, i.e. it doesn't tell fastboot which USB device to communicate with. I assume it's not necessary?

Cmd prompt input:

fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery clockwork_touch.img

Cmd prompt return:

[I]sending 'recovery'
writing 'recovery'
finished[/I]

TF201 screen: a 'progress bar' appears beneath the four (4) icons in the center of the screen. The bar completes, but remains on the screen. Nothing else happens. Is this usual?

Cmd prompt input:

adb reboot bootloader

Cmd prompt return:

[I]adb server is out of date. killing...
*daemon started successfully*
error: device not found[/I]

So I reboot into bootloader manually (volume down and power buttons)

I select the 'RCK' icon to boot into recovery

In the top left corner of the TF201 screen:

[I]'Booting recovery kernel image'[/I]

But it just hangs on this screen forever

======================================================================================

I've tried this with both clockwork standard and touch, and with TWRP. I've tried it without the -i command. I've tried installing it through ROM Manager Pro. All no bueno.

Any suggestions? I'd appreciate some help. Thanks.

[MENTION=5464484]mjamsek[/MENTION]

Hey it is not going to fix your issue but, you cant run adb commands in fastboot.... :D

So it should look more like this.....

fastboot reboot-bootloader

What is your bootloader version ?

Maybe try this as long as you are on a bootloader that ends in 2.17 or 2.18

type this

fastboot erase recovery

then reboot bootloader

then flash a CWM recovery

then reboot-bootloader

then flash TWRP....

Try that and tell me where it gets you...

Thx Josh

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spersico:
Hi to you all.

I'll tell you my problem:

As the title express, i can't install any rom.

I had problems with calls with the CM10.2 in my phone, so i tried to put some other rom. I put the mokee os 43.

It worked, but the WiFi didn't. So i tried again, with other rom. I've got bootlop.

Then i've full flashed the phone (you know.. with the RSD lite) with a sbf from where i live (JORLA_U3_3.4.2_108-5_SIGNED (a rom from Argentina, with Personal Carrier)). The phone worked, but when i installed the Custom rom (CM10.1 i think) i had no-signal with my phone (installed and tried everything to manage the baseband issue). Tried another rom, bootloop again.

Well, long story short:

Now, i cant install any SBF from Argentina of the MB525, just an USA version of it, because otherwise it bricks my phone (no bootloop, just black screen, recognisable by RSD).

I can install, though, the Defy+ version of those roms, but each time that i try to flash it to a cm7, cm10,cm10.2 rom, my phone bricks again. Showing me an error( "Err:A5,70,00,00,23" and prompting to put the usb cable and start over),and getting stuck in the debug mode (the part where you install the sbf), and can't get through that,

As you can tell, i've got serious trouble. I would love to start from scratch, but my phone is getting rebelious.

I've read in other forums, searching for the error above, and supossedly now my phone is no longer a defy, but a defy+, and i should install sbf's of THAT phone, but i've done it, and i still get the error each time i flash (superclick, 2ndinit,reboot, wipedata/cache/dalvik, cm7, gapps).

What should i do?.

Right now i'm in

DFL_U3_4.5.2_51-50_SIGNED_USADEFYB25RETLALA007.0R_STABLE45LADEFYRETLA_P008_A014_M001_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf

I made it. After using the guide linked before, i put cm10 in the phone, and worked.

I would've liked to install CM7, but at the moment, i've lost like 20/30 hs in making my phone work.

Right now, i just want to enjoy it!

After my problem with the roms. i had problems rooting the phone, 'cause the rooting method i used didn't worked anymore (superoneclick). I had to use the double-flash-method(from the link on top). After that, i installed 2ndInit and everything worked allright. Except CM7. I couldnt find a CM7 that didn't brick my phone. So... i'm stuck with CM10 (for now).. until 4.3 reach a certain level of maturity.

[HTC Inspire 4G] turboyoshi:
If your bootloader wasn't unlocked, I don't see how you could have bricked it. Also, do you know if you had usb debug mode turned on? You couldn't have flashed an image with a locked bootloader and the scripts won't work either since the adb/fastboot utilities cannot talk to your phone if debug mode is off.

At any rate, pull out the battery for a few minutes, reseat the battery, connect the phone to your pc, hold down vol- and power and see if you can get to a bootloader screen. Even if it seems to boot but hangs at the green htc logo, you should still be able to issue adb commands and recover.

Once the phone boots, on your pc, open a command prompt and type the command "adb devices" without quotes to see if your phone is recognized. Let us know the status then.
