Can anybody try this recovery.img
[HTC Desire 500] HouseBreaker:
This one's the single sim TWRP you're building, right?
[HTC Desire 500] R4Y3K:
Again single or dual or the 2

Can any one confirms it is working on single sim
[HTC Desire 500] Zerschneider:
not working

I flashed this via ADB but seems not working. Device Reboots normally when i go into Recovery via Fastboot:(

[HTC Desire 500] galaxyfreak:
Please stop separating everything on dual and single sim, please find me logic how does number of sim affect recovery

no, just rebuild of existing cwm.

thanks. Hopefully will fix recovery when I get phone. Dancing CWM is a common bug
[HTC Desire 500] Zerschneider:
hopefully there come Custom Roms soon. 4.1 is very weak for this Device. Bloatware and branding sucks
[HTC Desire 500] aljaz00x:
maybe it does

maybe it does, dual sim phones may have roms and kernels that accept 2 sim cards. i dont know bout recovery but i'm around 50% sure that dual sim rom is different than single sim :)
[HTC Desire 500] Fliwatt:
You just simply need to flash the stock recovery. Some people say that you would need to flash the stock ROM but flashing the stock recovery was perfectly enough for me. Just take the zip file of the Stock ROM, extract the recovery.img and flash it using fastboot flash recovery, then you can apply the update. But keep in mind that you should also flash back to the stock kernel if you are using a custom one.

Hey guys I rooted my HTC desire 500 single SIM and when I went to get my NAC code for using any SIM on phone they said it was unlocked already :) so does rooting SIM unlock the phone as well as giving us a rooted phone ? :)
[HTC Desire 500] MadaraOP:
Hello guys, i found something interesting. There is a device called Karbonn Titanium S1, which is identical to our Desire 500, and that device have CM11, CM10.2, CM10.1 and others. Maybe these roms would work on our phones? i cant flash these roms to my phone becouse i use it daily, so i'm afraid i will brick it, but here's the link if someone would want to try it.

Small differences there are. But it's most similar phone. Definitely do not install any rom for this phone to Desire 500.

[HTC Desire 500] ufonek:
CM11 crashes immediately after launch. Without the correct kernel for the D500 it certainly will not work. ;)
[HTC Desire 500] MadaraOP:

[HTC Desire 500] Josh594:
If smb replaces the kernel with for example the ultimate kernel?

[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:

[HTC Desire 500] ufonek:
CyanogenMod requires its own kernel. Kernel for D500 does not contain the functions necessary for proper operation.

Mount SD

I have a interesting question.

I bought a new sd card (32 gb), because its cheap and i start using torrent on my phone.. :)

So, i newer used before usb mounting, because airdroid is full enough to me.... but now i sadly experienced that our phone not mounting sdcard0... i know 4.X android not having mtp... but can we cheat a littlebit? :confused:

I try multi mount sd card, but its not working.

Thank You, and sorry for my bad english. Deer! :D
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
What exactly are you trying to do? Did you put a micro sdcardcard in the card reader? Or do you have an external sdcard reader connected to your phone?
[HTC Desire 500] Wizard21:
I want to use phone like an a usb mass storage....

Because the take off the backcover, then remove the sd card, than pu**** a card reader, than whole proccess again... ist very difficult and its not "elegant"..

So, plug usb cable to phone and both pc... than in total commander i see a sdcard, and tranfer data/ files, both pc and phone.
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Maybe there are file managers that work via adb? They would allow you to do this.
[HTC Desire 500] Wizard21:
After many apps and hours, I found this. Android ADB Total Commander

And its working...

Copy is 1,5-3 mbyte/s.... slowly usb 2.0,

But its faster than airdroid, and easy because not need phsically remove sdcard and use with card reader.

Temporarily solution. Half success.

[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
I don't know how to fix it, perhaps [MENTION=2784807]DooMLoRD[/MENTION] ?

When someone installs cwm the misc partition gets wiped.

The dual sim version of this phone has trouble booting when the misc partition is wiped: it cannot enter bootloader/hboot. Sometimes the phone boots again after pulling the battery out and leaving the phone for a few hours. If someone gets his phone to boot, and reflashes the misc partition, then the phone works fine, until he enters cwm again.

1. What is the use of wiping the misc partition? Will disabling it result in trouble?

2. Why does the phone have trouble booting when the misc partition is wiped? Can it be fixed?

Today i connect my phone to a new pc,... install drivers and apps.

But i didnt see, if i connect to computer... if with card reader, or adb total commander plugin, i see everything.

Strange.... :rolleyes:
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
You are seeing the contents of /storage/emmc, which is simlinked to /sdcard. /storage/emmc is the internal memory

In the older software versions, /storage/sdcard0 was simlinked to /sdcard, which is your actual sdcard. Make /sdcard point to /storagd/sdcard0 again, and you'll be fine.
[HTC Desire 500] joe-khalil:
​

How to do that exactly???
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Depends. I'm not sure if it can be done if your phone is not rooted.

If you phone is rooted you can use ln to make a symlink from /storage/sdcard0 to /sdcard, google for how to do it exactly. This is a one time solution.

If you want it to be changed permanently, you need to have my kernel installed.

Use a texteditor capable of editing root files.

Open /init.target.rc

Scroll down untill you see:

symlink /storage/emmc /sdcard (line 26)

Change it to:

symlink /storage/sdcard0 /sdcard

And you'll be good.

Edit: If this doesn't work, then you need to change the line below it as well:

symlink /storage/emmc /mnt/sdcard

to

symlink /storage/sdcard0 /mnt/sdcard
[HTC Desire 500] Wizard21:
Hmmm, still nothing. I use your boot6, and randomly downloaded text editor with root.
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Does /sdcard now point towards /storage/sdcard0? Confirm on phone.
[HTC Desire 500] joe-khalil:
Use turbo editor. It worked for me.

And make sure u keep the spaces between the words don't connect sdcard0 with /mnt/sdcard
[HTC Desire 500] Wizard21:
After I change it and reboot the system, the original init.rc comes back.

Push it on adb?
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Install the latest ultimate kernel
[HTC Desire 500] Wizard21:
It happened, but still emmc there...

When i edit it, i see its good, but after i reboot it, its still emmc not sdcard0.

Root, boot7_no_oc, turbo editor..... ahhh i dont know what is wrong?! :confused::silly:
[HTC Desire 500] joe-khalil:
Mmmm same here
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Do it via adb in recovery.
[HTC Desire 500] joe-khalil:
How?
[HTC Desire 500] Wizard21:
The good question is, where?

The easy mod, t think...

install and run on pc, adb_run

Phone off, reboot to recovery,

adb_run select 2-Move / 1 - Push

then, i think we must choose manual push, because we want to push it to system, and not to sdcard... am i right?! :confused:

But i not pro user... :)
