[HTC One X] bface007:
Hi every one. I'm new to the forum and i need your help. Four days ago i found my Htc One X switched off and i tried to power it on it just boot & shut down and the same every time i press power button. My CID is HTC_044 and i tried to flash 2.17.707.3 ruu because its version-main was 2.17.707.3 but it always failed. So i decided to unlock bootloader and restore 4.19.707.3 nandroid backup from this thread with cwm 6.0.4.8.

Now my phone boot the same (boot up and straight shut down) when i press power but it can do that only if it's plugged to wall charger or usb or else it won't boot up. Maybe it's a battery issue but i don't find any solution in internet.

This is what i got with fastboot getvar version-main:

hi! first of all delete your imei and s/n form your post, internet is not safe...

then, can you enter bootloader or recovery?
[HTC One X] bface007:
Thank you. I did it.

Yes I can boot to recovery and bootloader. I have restored 4.19.707.3 nandroid backup and when it has booted to sense it shut down two seconds later like the battery was low. So i plugged it to wall charger for 12 hours, desperately when it booted it shut down like battery was low. The same even if i try to charge from recovery or via boot loop batch script....

Help!

I've got 2 LG Realm (ls620) phones, rebooted them, and one is suddenly bricked.

Zero explanation why. I've rooted both (towelroot) and installed the same software on both.

Either way, the bricked phone will not boot up. All it does is boot cycle. Can't access the stock recovery mode.

[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fefifofum:
Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

TWRP 2.8.6.0 Changelog: http://teamw.in/site/update/2015/03/26/twrp-2.8.6.0-released.html

Why another thread of TWRP?

This build of TWRP doesn't need loki to bypass the bootloader, and it works with both 4.2 and 4.4 bootloaders. It also has the advantage that when you boot the device into recovery it doesn't show that nasty bootloader warning. The kernel in this build is based on cm-12.1 official, but it has the backlight adapted for 4.4 bootloader. You can also use it with a 4.2 bootloader, but you'll probably have brightness issues.

Thanks! Working so far...
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
This is very cool. How does Bump work? Is Bump a utility, similar to loki?

Are you using Open Bump?

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/orig-development/tool-bump-sign-boot-images-t2950595
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fefifofum:
Open Bump. It's just a python script. As you can see, it's very easy to implement, I think every custom rom/recovery should be using this.

This is how I added it to my recovery repo: https://github.com/awifi-dev/twrp_device_lge_v500/commit/090f1930fe5b0feaada35b6ba1abc5cbd05a8f72

This is how I added it to my cm repo: https://github.com/awifi-dev/androi...mmit/7a8418e656cbc0862a23e3a95ece02cd3c6c277d
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
That is awesome. I see that python script has some magic signing key from lg embedded in it. Does Open Bump require any modifications to work with our device images?

It would be super cool if there was c based version so that I could create a flashable script to remove loki from the boot image and sign with bump to remove that ugly boot loader error message on boot up.

Something I could flash after applying a nightly update. Just like the script I just made for setting the kernel into permissive mode.

[MENTION=4517918]jsevi83[/MENTION]

Do you have more commits for v500 to change the cm kernel update system to remove the loki stuff? Great work!

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 PM ----------

Everyone flashing this should realize that your aboot must still be loki exploitable because of the way cm installs it's kernel. I believe that the cm install script calls loki to install the boot.img.

So, this works on stock 20d version with root (Towelroot) and Flashify? I didn't get TWRP with the tons of the methods found here on xda, and also softbricked the tablet.

I will not try again unless this method really works!
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
Flashify will try to use loki. Don't use that. Use the command line with the dd command.

---------- Post added at 12:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------

Btw, stock 20d won't work on cm without an exploitable aboot.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ASW1:
I keep getting this error no matter what ROM I try to flash.

I am basically stuck now with a tablet that will only boot into TWRP 2.8.6, I messed up the system so TWRP is all I have now.

Any suggestions about what to do?

Should I maybe use TWRP to flash CMW and try that instead?

edit: tried flashing CMW but it won't work; even then I get the same error message.

So all I have now is TWRP that fails to flash anything....
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] luisbraz:
See this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48942830

When I softbricked my tablet this solved my problem.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ASW1:
Something else I noticed after a failed flash:

"assert failed: run_program("/tmp/loki/sh") == 0

(I did use flashify to install 2.8.6.0)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] annoyingduck:
Fyi for those new to bump... (I have a g3, been with it from the beginning). Bump rom flashing requires the rom zip boot (kernel) to be bumped. All rom developers will need to adopt this if we are going to switch from loki to bump. All current lp builds for other lg devices do not have "bumpable" bootloaders due to bump being open sourced (cooperation with lg failed with its open release and they patched it), so once the lp updates become standard, the jb boots may cause problems for aosp while the kk one is working, so this will likely be the preferred method for us down the road, but all new roms will need to be updated accordingly. I can already see this is going to get messy for many that aren't up to speed, and some new guides will need to be made once we get the methods working.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
Officially, cm will never adopt this method because of the keys that it contains. But, my goal is to make a flashable zip that will automatically convert a loki kernel to a bumped kernel.

We just need to convert this python script to a standalone c application so that I can package it.

---------- Post added at 10:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 AM ----------

You still need to have a loki exploitable aboot to install official CyanogenMod.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] odjinan:
[MENTION=5227588]Deltadroid[/MENTION]: you told us to not use flashify to update twrp... so best method is flash twrp-(bump edition) inside twrp (loki edition)?

and then flash only bump compliant rom? (like euphoria-os, sure other dev will convert their rom to this new method, except CM official build as you mentioned earlier)
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] Deltadroid:
If you already have a custom recovery installed, then the safest method is to use the flashable zip to install the bumped version of twrp. Just flash it in your recovery to install the new bumped recovery.

If you don't have a custom recovery installed yet, but you have root, then you can use the dd command to flash the boot image to your boot partition.

---------- Post added at 02:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------

The ROMs you flash don't need to be "bump compliant" if you have a loki exploitable aboot.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] odjinan:
thank for the quick reply!

I flashed the zip version from OP and it working well. No more alert on boot screen~
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] fefifofum:
The best option would be to use kitkat bootloader and bump for all custom roms and recoveries. It's very easy, I already shared the commits needed to implement this, and I could make a flashable zip with kitkat bootloader so everyone can easily install it.

That's not true, some LG devices like v400 already use bump in CyanogenMod (officially), check this:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/6a647d5664df1bada7d1a36abe8faad79e0096cb

If they have it we could also get it.
[G Pad 8.3 Original Android Development] ckret:
so for a bumped kernel to work we need to use your modified version of the script?

I currently use tomtom6 but have used destinator in the past and its my prefered.

I use TomTom for road navigatoin and Anquet for off road (walking, and cycling)

Anquet is pricy! but it has OS mapping available for the entire UK, (and i believe its this OS map data thats has enforced the high price. most of the the UK is at 1/25k Which is idea for walking, (you can see trees marked and field boundrys.

The mapping app for the PPC in the early version was poor but the newer stuff is pretty good.

That said i have recently installed Gmaps. Google Maps free PPC app, if your in a 3G area its really quite fast to load, and being able to see satalite images (if the res is good enough where you are) is pretty cool. Driving in my car with it drawing Satalite photos clear enough to see cars on makes you feel like Jack Bower!

Gmaps will do point to point navigation too, and in the US it can pick up traffic infomation.

Wayfinder GPS Software Review

So I tried the free 5 day Wayfinder download. Here's how I see it:

1: The download was easy but getting it to work was another thing. 3 installs and 2 uninstalls later it came up.

2: You need to authenticate prior to first use. Authentication took about 5 attempts including having to ask for the code from tech support which delayed thing 24hrs. The code is supposed to be included according to the Readme but it wasn't. The code sent didn’t work and I finally authenticated when the software asked permission to do so by sending an sms to their server.

3. This application requires an internet connection to download maps, which means that if your connection is slow, good luck. If you loose the connection due to drop out or no service you are screwed. If you loose connection, you get a pop-up error message and the software seems to be no longer useable because you close the message but it keeps returning. The only option is to close the application.

4: The accuracy was good and the auto corrections worked well on a 32 mile drive home. I purposely took a different route to see how it would respond and I must say it reacted quickly and accurately.

5: The task bar is at the top of the screen and is very large, too large in fact. I couldn’t find a way to reduce the size or minimize it.

6: I couldn't get the screen zoom to show me the entire route. It wasn't as if I was going cross country, it was only 32 miles.

7: The search function worked very well. My office is in a good sized city but my home is almost in the middle of no where. It found both locations with no problem the first time. That's an advantage of an on-line service.

Finally, I worked with Rt66 on a Nokia e61 for a project. Rt66 supplies all of the maps in the application so you don't need to be on-line at all which is a good thing. Rt66 also plots your course with a line overlayed on the map. Wayfinder doesn’t. Rt66 seemed to have some quirks of its own but overall was a much more useable product.

The bottom line is that if you have a good signal all the time you are fine. Cingular does not have 100% coverage nationwide which means you may run into problems planning routes and using the system if you are in a low or no signal area. I think I'll stick to a maps-on-board program.

I have used Route 66 on P910i, which is better than Destinator but doesn't give as much coverage of Finland as Tom tom 6.
