[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
Hello.

I have a problem with friend's phone.

It's HTC Desire Z (Vision). I S-OFFed how it's described on CM wiki. Latest radio.

About month ago I installed CM 10.1 AlterNdromadus.

It worked until yesterday, when it unfortunately installed some system update.

After that phone didn't booted anymore. In recovery it says, that it can't access system partition and formatting is not possible.

I tried connect the phone via fastboot in bootloader, but it also doesn't work. Under windows I have it as unknown device and when I tried manually install drivers from google, it says that they are not compatible with the HW (under ROM it worked before).

I tried also install stock RUU rom (extracted the zip and deleted H-BOOT, radio and recovery) from SD-card (PC10IMG.zip). But it also got frozen on system update.

Here you can see error from 4EXT recovery and CRC images from bootloader.

Any suggestions? :crying:

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Well, I guess I meant to keep this thread in the desire z q&a thread but this works

I wish we could know what kind of system update was flashed as it may be easier to fix this

There shouldn't have been any system update as there is no ota associated with that ROM, but we can try anyway

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2348266

Here you will find links to get you proper drivers, being your on windows try using a free program called USBDeviw, I have had to use this a lot to erase drivers and then manually install the proper ones (windows is terrible at this)

Or if you can dual boot Linux you may find life easier as once you get fastboot working you should be able to quick fix this.

Otherwise try out the aio wipe tool and or superwipe script that is linked in the guide I sent you

But really, try to get the drivers working and we should be good
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
Tried both superwipes. Doesn't work :/

The problem with fastboot is, that windows totally doesn't recognize the device. So I'm not able to install any drivers (see attachment).

The reason why I posted it in this section is, that I found people with similar problem on other phones. But noting work to get it back...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
Any recommendation for the linux?

I booted successfully SystemRescueCD. After a half hour I also went ADB but no devices were found...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
The screenshot is blurry when looking at it from my phone but it looks like windows 8/8.1 which many have issues getting adb/fastboot to work right. Usually the fix involves using usb3.0 ports

Can you just dual boot a Linux distro? Ubuntu is a very simple one to work with and you will easily find guides how to get fastboot working on it, actually if you see the thread I linked you there is one on fastboot that walks you through the process

If you don't want to dual boot a live CD is fine, but you still need to get the adb/fastboot binaries installed and working from that disc
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
Yes, it's windows 8.1. I don't have USB3.0.

I have here also one really old desktop with windows 7, I will give it a try.

Otherwise last chance is the Ubuntu (I don't want to dualboot, so I will made live USB).

I downloaded from XDA two files - ADB and fastboot for Linux.

Downloading and installing adb from SDK from google doesn't look so easy as on windows...

Also should I use drivers from HTC sync or from google SDK?

Because through ROM it worked right with the google's drivers...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolvipcandy:
although this is not what you may want as an answer but why don't you copy a ROM to SD card n flash via recovery,, it'll regenerate system,, once it is regenerated,, you can connect to your PC and carry on to what you want.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
Nope. It doesn't work. I tried it as first option.

I just forgot to write it here....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolvipcandy:
seems like you might have actual physical damage/bad sector on ur device.

this is what happens in hard drives, they can't be formatted, no read/write etc.

i don't know if there's any app that can help fix you this coz you can't connect to system/OS in first place to do so,

Best option seems like to dust off the warranty papers n get it to service center for repairs as it might need physical parts replacement.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
I got working fastboot (not ADB) on Windows7.

When I tried fastboot format /system I got error "Uknown command".

When I tried fastboot erase /system I got error "No partition found" :eek:

Yes, it's probably problem with bad blocks...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
The issue at hand depends on what this 'update' was as the ROM that was running on the phone at the time would not have had one which means something was flashed to it that shouldn't have been.

Being the phone had security flags removed (soff) a number of things that shouldn't be allowed to flash can be, so depending on what it was will determine how fixable it is

At this point the only way to fix it or at least dertimine if it is fixable is to get phone and PC to connect via fastboot and adb

So use the windows 7 or Linux, set it up with drivers found in xda wiki or write the android rules for Linux and work on this, its doubtful you can move forward until this is done
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benik3:
As I wrote, I got Fastboot worked.

BTW isn't possible to acces ADB only from the ROM?

I tried to get it work without success. I tried HTC and google drivers...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Must have posted while I was posting and I missed that

Fastboot only works from bootloader and adb only works in os and recovery

The commands you were using isn't correct, I suggest you read again the two fastboot links from the link I sent you for clear instructions.

For right now I would grab the latest cwm, twrp or 4ext recovery (4ext still best for this phone)

Then

fastboot erase system -

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase boot

Then

fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

Then if all goes well grab a known stable ROM and flash it (along with gapps if needed) from new recovery

If things don't work as planned be sure to copy and paste all input/output from cmd

i have used lokiwiz 0.2a to unlock all of my wizard (dopod 838)

after that i can't go to BootLoader why ?

is it have problem with my ppc

thank : )
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
What rom are you trying to unlock? - numbers please. You may be using the wrong version of lokiwiz.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] eAk:
after unlock

i try to unlock to up rom to QTek

how to fixed this problem ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Are you sure it is unlocked? What message did you receive after unlocking? What error message do you get when you try to upgrade.

You should have used lokiwiz 0.2b here http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=33796

It sounds to me that you device is still cid locked - use lokiwiz 0.2b and unzip the file to c: directory on you computer. Choose super(cid) option to unlock it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] eAk:
yes today i try to unlock with 0.2b again

no i don't get any error message i can upgrade to any ROM but i can't go to my BootLoader (via push camera and soft reset)

i don't know is it error occur to my device (it can't go to bootloader screen)

i just try it but it still can't go to BootLoader screen

now i have only one problem that i can't go to BootLoader screen but i can upgrade my ROM from any manufacture

thank you for your help :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
Why do you need to go to bootloader screen? You don't need to go to this screen to upgrade your rom anyhow.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] eAk:
yes i don't need to go to that screen but i worry about this 'cos after unlock i can go to that screen

but if it isn't error for my ppc then i don't worry about this.

can you go to that screen before you unlock your phone

[edit]

i just see version 0.3a is it better and if i unlock my ppc with 0.2b is it better if i unlock with 0.3a again

thank you :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] meschle:
I would leave the phone as it is if that is the only problem - its possible you could make things worse.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] eAk:
it's mean to my ppc has problem

*i'm new to english

Hello everyone,

I was wondering is there a easy way to go back to stock? I am getting the M8 today from Rogers and was wondering if I mod it is there a firmware file I can just flash to return back to stock? (like how the N5 has Factory Files) First HTC ever and im really excited just want to be prepared when modding it. How should I back up the firmware? are there stock files for rogers etc..etc.....

Thanks!

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max0702:
Hi,

I've managed to unlock my bootloader today. Rooted afterwards and installed a custom recovery (TWRP).

I rooted the device by using the superboot option ("a boot.img that when booted, will root your device the first time you boot"). However that option also changed the bootanimation. I don't particularly like that one so I want to change it. The problem is that when I try to flash a new bootanimation, it doesn't change at all. I tried to change it by both flashing the bootanimation and manually moving/replacing the bootanimation (yes, I used the correct file permissions); nothing worked.. Is there something I'm doing wrong or does a custom bootanimation require you to do something first..? I don't know, I guess you can help me out somehow :p

Thanks!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgotter:
You also have to change the file "bootanimation" in system/bin/.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max0702:
What exactly should I change? The file in system/bin isn't a .zip like the bootanimation file itself. Sorry for my ignorance, lol.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max0702:
Solved! I had to copy the bootanimation.zip to /data/local/moodle/ aswell (permissions -rwxrwxrwx).

Changing the system/bin/ bootanimation file wasn't necessary.

Thanks for your help :good:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgotter:
I have attached a file here download it extract it and copy it to system/bin/(here). And then copy your desired bootanimation.zip to system/media/(here). Change the permissions of both these files to rw-r-r. Reboot your phone to check of it works:good:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youngblood68:
could be a stupid quiestion lol but is this only for the moto G , because I tried this on my Samsung note 4 and did not work ?? did all the above and ended bricking my phone , not a problem as I know how to get it working again lol

Which Sony apps don't work? Currently listening to music via Walkman app on this rom. Sounds great.

Only personal gripe is the ever present background hiss when using CM & Omni based builds. Just cannot get rid of it despite using diff kernels and enabling direct DAC etc.. Open to suggestions as I really like the sound quality

Album and Movies work fine also.

(besides the skipping part) wish i could raise the volume a little more though :P
