NOTE THAT YOUR PHONE SHOULD NOT BE CONNECTED DURING THIS PROCESS

I already searched & set up the update folder so you don't have to do all the dirty work d:\

Ok Well I'm just going to make this quick and not really got through the basics like how to unzip things because if you don't know how to do that you probably shouldn't be trying to get s-off on your phone anyway so I'll just assume you already know how.

Step 1. open control panel select hardware and sound and open Device Manager with the administrative logo one the side.

Step 2. Near the top or somewhere on this list there's supposed to be a drop down that reads "adb devices, adb android, adb, android, adb drivers etc. Mine shows Android USB Devices it actually just varies based on computer I can't really go to the specifics of it but I'm sure you can find it.

Step 3. Select that dropdown menu and right click whatever shows (there should only be one thing) and then select Update Driver Software and choose the option that says Browse my computer for driver software and locate the htc drivers folder which should already be unzipped, select the whole folder and have the option to include subfolders checked. click next or whatever it says to finish

Step 3 Now you must remove your device from the Portable Devices dropdown menu to ensure all drivers are detected for the phone, to do this right click on HTC First and just select remove, wait until it's done. and now just reconnect your device and let all the drivers install and it should now be done! :)

Make sure you look at the screenshots I attached to make sure you don't accidentally remove or update something else also because that's where the drivers folder is an i'm pretty sure you'll need that

A reboot of the computer is recommended btw

Ask questions if you have any

Wow, that's quite explanatory, thank you! Unfortunately I only see the category ADB Devices when the phone is connected and in recovery mode, and I only see the category Portable Devices when the phone is connected, booted, and in debug mode. (Neither of these categories are visible when the phone is disconnected from the computer.) I did however try installing the drivers you gave me with the phone connected and in recovery mode, but to no avail; after the phone boots ADB Devices disappears and Portable Devices appears. Uninstalling Portable Devices doesn't help either; it just reinstalls when I reconnect the phone.

I am trying to get the category ADB Devices to appear in the Device manager when the phone is turned on and in debug mode so that I can use ADB while the phone is booted.
[HTC First] nikpmr:
Got it working. I had to go to device manager > portable devices > HTC First and replace the driver with Generic USB Composite Device Driver.

Boom. Everything working. Weird.
[HTC First] :
How exactly did you replace the HTC First driver with the Generic USB Composite Device Driver?

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arjunkdas:
Hi,

I'm a newbee around here and I would really appreciate if someone could help me on this.

My GT-I9070 was fully functional till yesterday. I've been running CM10.2. Yesterday I tried to change the Kernal to Co-Core 8.2. I deeply regret doing that because I didn't had enough knowledge on how to change kernals. What I did was copied the Co-Core zip file to sdcard and applied it via CWM. After that, my phone restarted and it was stuck on the CM boot screen. I got mad and flashed the phone to stock 4.1.2 using ODIN. Then the setup wizard showed up and it kept on crashing giving me toasts, "gapps not working" and "setup wizard has unfortunately stopped".

I then went to stock recovery mode and the log said,

E:failed to mount /efs (No such file or directory)

E:failed to mount efs (Invalid argument)

Applying Multi CSC..

E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)

E:multi_csc:Can't mount /efs Multi csc applied failed

I searched on n number of threads here in XDA about this problem and read in one thread that IMEI could've corrupted.

Then using ODIN, I flashed my mob to stock GB 2.3.6 with DDLD4 baseband. Then everything worked perfect. Phone booted up and was working perfect. But then I tried to update the phone to 4.1.2 via KIES, the KIES said "This phone can't be upgraded".

I again flashed 4.1.2 using ODIN, again it said gapps and setup wizard unfortunately stopped. I tried installing CM10.1, CM10.2, MIUI but in all cases, it got stuck on the bootscreen of each ROM. I flashed back to stock GB again and phone is working perfect now. When I go to "about phone", IMEI is showing with no error. It is the same IMEI which the phone had when it was bought. But when I go into recovery mode, it still says "/efs can't be mount". What could be the possible reason for this? How I can I fix this? Is there anyway for me to install the CM ROM again and successfully keep it up and running?

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patlcs:
i got that problem too. you should flash your .pit file and check repartition in odin.

this solved my problem.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arjunkdas:
Are you saying I have to flash pit file alone? Or do a full flash of GB with repartition checked?

While flashing JB, I didn't used any pit file. Just used the .tar file which was selected under PDA of ODIN.

Any idea if checking repartition while flashing JB would work?

I'm currently running GB 2.3.6 baseband version DXLD1. And I've got 2 pit files one for 8GB which I got from the DXLD1 package I downloaded and one 16 GB which I downloaded separately.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patlcs:
No... you should flash pit file with the .tar.md5 file.

repartition will work on either GB or JB.

if you have the 8gb version you should use the 8gb .pit file and use the 16 gb .pit file if you have the 16gb version.

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arjunkdas:
Doubts

My phone is the 16 GB version. I'm having some weird doubts. I beg your pardon if I'm asking noob questions but I need to know them.

Ok, so here's how I flashed JB 4.1.2

In the JB package I downloaded, ther was only .tar file and nothing else. The baseband version is DDULP8. So everytime I flashed JB, I did with .tar file alone and no pit file.

Now, whenever I flashed back to GB 2.3.6, I flashed by selecting three files in the DXLD1 download package. PDA file, CSC file and an 8GB pit file. I flashed with these files at the first place and the phone boots up, works well. But the internal storage is shown as 3.91 GB. To solve this, I downloaded a separate 16GB pit file and flashed the phone by just selecting the 16GB pit file. After I rebooted my phone, it shows 11.1 GB internal storage.

My doubt is, do I need to select the 16GB pit file and check repartition while flashing JB 4.1.2?

Or just check repartition and flash with .tar file alone?!:confused::confused:

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amr diab:
i didn't have any backup and the imei is ok

just try it from 1-10

1) If you are with a Gingerbread rom, first have to migrate to a Jelly Bean

2) Now that you're with Jelly Bean, download the CWM Temporary, extract the files to a folder of your choice and move to your memory card.

3) Unplug the device and plug it into recovery mode

volume p / up + home + power

4) Select using the volume button the option "Apply update from external storage" and press the power

5) It will open a list with several folders and files, now navigate to the "CWM.zip" and press power again

6) It started to install and the phone screen goes all hazy, wait 5 seconds, press HOME and wait about 3 seconds will open the CWM version in "Touch"

7) Select "Wipe Cache"

8) Now select "advanced", then select "fix permissions"

9) Select "reboot system", a counter appears never ending, this time take out the battery and restart the device in recovery mode

10) The error message should no longer appear, now just install the Stock ROM Jelly Bean desired.

Hello, recently I bought nook hd+ and installed nova luncher right away. The problem is that on Nova I can't access recent tasks. First, pressing the button brings menu with big delay (working good with stock launcher) and it doesn't show any app there(again works good on stock). How can I make recent tasks work? I'm rooted by the way.

Also(not related) when I uninstall some bloatware, after some time they still come back. I uninstalled normally, with titanium backup, deleting all directly but they still come back. Any solution?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
No, the third party launchers do not show recents. You need to get another third party app like recents plus.

And those apps are put back by stock automatically. Since you are rooted you could try freezing them with TB. That might work.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] SigniaVision:
So for about two weeks now my phone has been getting this LG Security Error (therefore rendering it useless). I was trying to install a newer version of CWM (I was using l9recovery.apk or whatever it was) and I forgot that my bootloader was locked. Since then my phone has been a paperweight. I put a lot of research into trying to fix it and everything has ended up in failure. I first tried the LG Mobile Support Tool. Everything worked until it got to the downloading phase (it just stops and ceases to work). Then I tried to recover it via Fastboot. This also failed because I couldn't get it to detect my device (I couldn't get the omap4430 drivers installed, either). So if anyone knows a way to fix the LGST downloading phase or a way to get Fastboot it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Otherwise, if this doesn't work, would you guys recommend a JTAG service from Ebay? This would be my last resort.

I have two projects currently I have chosen to work on. One will be totally in Java. I assume NetBeans can handle it, but I think Eclipse is the more usual / comfortable way to go. I'd like an exe that just sets up the IDE the way it needs to be. I haven't found such a executable.

The second project has me working with ARM Assembly Language. How do I get Eclipse to do this I don't know. I've searched Google and run into dead ends.

This seems like the ideal place to ask for help on Android IDE setups. What did you download? What modules did you install and where are those modules? Any tutorials?

I have AIDE app available to me. If anyone knows of a tutorial how to get AIDE to compile C with Assembly Language I'll read it with gusto.

I'm pretty sure I'm bricked now. Black ATT One X. Flashing updated twrp so I can flash 4.4 roms, but wasn't paying attention and typed boot instead of recovery out of habit. Now my phone only goes to htc splash screen and turns off again. I can't get into recovery or fast boot. I'm bricked aren't I?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Madcat8686:
I'm assuming you are holding down the power and volume down keys at the same time to get into the bootloader?

Sometimes you have to hold both buttons (power button and volume down button) for 10 to 15 seconds. I've had to do this multiple times in a row to get out of a bootloop in the past.

If the phone attempts to boot and you can see the splash screen then you are not bricked yet. Bricked means nothing happens when you push the power button.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Rcox100:
Yes. Doing that doesn't do anything until I take my fingers off, then it tries to do a normal boot and powers off again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Black!Jack:
What command did you type exactly?

There is a fastboot command for just booting a recovery.IMG (fastboot boot recovery.img), but it wouldn't cause the problem you are having. It would just boot you into that recovery without actually flashing it.

Edit: what are your phone specs?... i.e. carrier, hboot version, etc...

yeah I typed "fastboot flash boot recovery.img" on accident, pretty sure I ****ed up
