[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
i've never seen an auto-hard reset so I don't know where you've got that from. Where does it come up that it's hard resetting, I've never seen anything that it does this automatically?

As discussed in the thread you quoted me from.

Some people believe a hard reset will clear anything left over from a flash that didn't get overwritten in the flashing process.. think about it, if you flash 113mb of new rom into a 256 mb rom space then there's some chance that data will be left behind.

There's enough people who find that hard resetting solves problems, so it does seem to do some good.

All I said that you've quoted me,(why not keep this in that thread, we need to reduce clutter not create more)? EDIT ah I see you did, sorry... A pm asking me to look at the thread would have sufficed ;)

is that after you've finished flashing, if you want to hard reset, then do it then, it doesn't take any extra effort especially if you use the microSD flashing method, where you have to manually reset the device anyway!

"Make hard reset AFTER you flash." is EXACTLY what I've written, make the hard reset after you've flashed, and before it goes through the first (very long) boot up.. Saves repeating that long 1st boot again, it doesn't really matter when you do it, it's just this way saves some time..

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J-Pro:
Thank you very much for your answer, fards.

To see it, just wait till the first(after flash) boot ends. You'll see that through this first boot same processes are executed, just as if we do manual hard reset. That's why I named it "automatical-hard-reset". It always happens through the first boot, after flashing.

That was clear from the very start, mate ;)

I'll remember it ;)

Here is the point. I DO use microSD flash method. And I DO have to manually SOFT reset my phone. BUT while it reboots, my SOFT reset "automatically" turns into a HARD one, JUST because it's the FIRST boot after flashing. I've got such assumption because I saw(on the screen) that same customizing process happens, etc.

I would ask you, how can I make an HR(HardReset) if I have to make SR(SoftReset) first? BUT this your quote from another thread partially answers the question:

Everywhere is written that a hard reset is: Hold SIMULTANEOUSLY SR-button and both of soft-keys. I've never read about HR as: "Make an SR and hold two soft-keys during booting". It's obviously very different definitions.

So now I can answer: YES, we can make an HR during the first boot after flashing, i.e. we CAN interrupt this first boot(i.e. auto-hard-reset).

But the second part is still not clear for me: is this "first long boot" the same as an HR? Just look at what it does(on the screen) and you'll understand that it's very similar(if not the same). But I just want to have things clear.

Thank you very much!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guap:
no. It's the same long boot as standard windows when you log on first time... only "finalizing" installation
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J-Pro:
I see. And this "finalizing" happens also after every HR, right? Just to get things clear: "finalizing" is not a part of HR, HR happens BEFORE it. But "finalizing" happens everytime through boot IF there is no preinstalled files found(which are deleted by HR, OR just absent after flashing). Am I right?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
rather than "finalizing" think "Initialising" as the system is going through all the initflashes.dat files and provxmls that it does as a first run, as the flags are set in the system that it needs setting up.

but to answer, yes, not so much that there's no preinstalled files found, but that the registry is set as stock that it's the initial boot I think.

Theres no evidence that suggests it's clearing storage area during the initial boot.

if you think about it, if it was "hard resetting" during that process, then after a manually induced hard reset, (either by clear storage or teh two hardkeys) it would go through the process of hard resetting all over again..

Which sounds a bit counter productive..

But you'd need to remotely connect to the device and watch the process to be certain I think. Either way it doesn't hurt to hard-reset after flashing :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J-Pro:
Not "over and over", just once again. Then after successful "Initialization" it "sets all flags" to "initialized ROM" and boots normally next time.

Because of misunderstanding of how to make an HR, I didn't know that HR can be done BEFORE(or better to say DURING/AT START) this "first long boot", therefore I always waited till it ends, setting all the parameters, calibrating the screen, etc. and only after that I was making a manual HR. After this manual HR I saw the same things on the screen, did same actions(setting up, calibrating), etc. That was truly counter productive. That's why I asked. Moreover, I think that there are a lot more(than me alone) people, who make HR only AFTER first "long boot" is finished :) I hope they will see this thread...

But now it's all clear. Thank you for your answers, fards and guap, it really helped!

ADDED:

P.S.: You know, guys, after thinking a little, I've got that we can make an HR even when phone is turned off and without using SR-button. If the phone is off, hold down two soft-keys and power the phone on. Nice. That completely proves everything said above.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonny4911:
HRing after Flashing

I always use Micro-SD method when i flash and when it says update success instead of taking out the battery and turning it on, i simply hard reset it from that screen. so i hold the left and right softkeys and then push the soft reset button (this is the only way i can HR, holding L&R softkeys while holding the power button doesn't work for me i have to press the soft reset key as well). this means i don't have to go through the initial long boot screen twice and its a little quicker than taking out the battery and then HRing.

Hope this helps :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
yes sometimes I do this.. occassionally if the screen isn't responding on boot (after tweaking and pushing things far too much) & I can still turn off the x1 with the powerbutton and then OK key, then power back on and hardreset..

if you can do it (ie the device is still responding, but not the screen) then it's easier than pulling the back cover off.. Damn this stupid idea of hiding the reset button!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fards:
yep thats the way to do it (although you can press the soft reset and then press the two front buttons, as long as you're quick enough).

Please Help!! Ive been having the worst luck with this phone!! I dropped it on concrete and I put everything back together and now it has a red, green, blue and white bar that has Vogu100 SPL-0.40.coKe CPLD-3 and on the white part it says serial. I have tried har resetting and does not work! I dont know what else to do!! Oh and this is the Vogu XV6900 vZW

Andrea :mad::confused::(
[Touch CDMA General] Detroit_Doug:
Its a vigue you dropped on concrete, its displaying the bootloader screen, youve already unlocked it obviously as it is displaying coke .41 but you cant hard reset ...

Ill assume your already running a custom ROM on this, take and rename the .nbh file to VOGUIMG.nbh and copy over to the SD card on your phone (as long as it is 2 GB or smaller or use your original SD card) put back in phone and power on as its already trying to reload see if it will do it from the card

If not, you DID get the insurance on it right?? if so, claim it stolen and have it replaced, or claim it as dead and have them replace it but I dont suggest telling them you dropped it though

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA General] a.nixon84:
HElp

How do I go about doin this I do have a storage card in there...sorry very new to this
[Touch CDMA General] Detroit_Doug:
well if you have the original card, you will need some sort of reader interface or adapter on your PC.

remove it from the phone and insert the SD card into it, windows will then see it and you can format it making sure to select FAT32

once that is done, copy the .nbh file from the ROM you used/want to use and once its done coping then right click and rename to VOGUIMG.nbh

power on the phone and press and hold the power+camera and insert the stylus into the reset hole all at the same time until a gray screen appears

follow the directions and hope for the best, otherwise call asurion and make an insurance claim

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA General] thoughtlesskyle:
is it for sprint or verizon or another carrier

im not sure if it will work if you have the coke bootloader on it but, i have seen this where i work a few times (minus the coke bootloader), if you get the offical 6.1 software download and install the .exe file to your computer it will usually reload the rom and be on your way

if its sprint the official download is available at www.sprint.com/downloads

install it to your computer and open the .exe

when it comes up with the updater screen plug your data cable into the phone, if it comes up with USB at the bottom click next and start the upgrade.
[Touch CDMA General] Detroit_Doug:
BTW here is the link to the latest Verizon ROM for your phone

http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=82&cat=2&dl_id=99

it will download a file called

_Verizon XV6800_RUU_TITAN_VZW_WWE_3.57.605.1_RS_TITAN_3.37.75_OM_VZW_ShipFULL.EXE (god awful long name I know) BUT with an app called WinRAR installed on your PC you can right click on the exe file and select to "extract to ..." and it will then extract all the files into a folder of the same name

from there you can copy the file RUU_signed.nbh somewhere or even to your SD card and then rename it VOGUIMG.nbh and away you go with flashing to the original stock vzw ROM via bootloader mode

Hope that helps

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA General] yearn:
Be careful after flashing back to stock because coke .40 doesent have overwrite protection. you will need to run the coke 2.31 unlocker after your carrier flash so you can then flash a custom rom.

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] itb44:
Thanks for the promising app. Unfortunately, not yet compatible with my Verizon Samsung Omnia i910. Installed AudioRoute 1.2.020. Selected earpiece (left icon), which changed status icon to "E", but did not route sound to earpiece. Selected backspeaker (middle icon) and then speakerphone (right icon), both change icon back to "S" but no apparent difference. That is, no change at all in actual audio routing.

Allow me to suggest the SD Card flash method...

- Faster

- Safer

- Cleaner

- Trouble free

1. Ensure you have Hard-SPL installed

2. Ensure your SD Card is FAT32 formated

3. Copy the .nbh file to the root of your SD Card

4. Rename it to RAPHIMG.nbh

5. Soft-reset and press Vol. Down Key

6. Follow on-screen instructions

7. After first boot,

hard-reset

[Soft-reset + Vol. Down Key + Action Key]

The best of luck to you.

[G1 General] mfrey0118:
OK so far my problem has stumped everyone.

I have a rooted and hacked G1(HTC Dream) with a 16GB MicroSDHC that is divided into a 2GB Ext2 partition and a 14GB FAT32 partition. It worked fine for a while but then my G1 started to freeze up and reboot continuously so I took the card out and it stopped. I tried chkdsk in Vista and it hung in elevated .cmd prompt and it says i have bad sectors but it cannot fix in read only mode. I tried format in Vista and cmd and it tries, says the data is RAW and that it tried to convert to FAT but cluster size too big. Then when I try fs command for vfat in .cmd it still won't work. I used Paragon Partition Manager 9.0 PAID version to create partitions but now it hangs every time it tries to read the card and it won't format. Tried sdformatter and a low level formatter to and no good.

I have Terminal in my G1 but I am not familiar with Linux commands. I tried fdisk and it says the FAT32 is in read only mode. When I type busybox df -h it won't show the "/dev/block/mmcblk0p1" but it shows the Ext2 partition. But when I type the mount command it shows up as "rw". But i cannot access it at all to wipe the stupid card out.

HELP!!!!
[G1 General] mfrey0118:
1) can you mount the fat32 partition in you phone and can see the files?

2) did you tried as root *mount -o rw,remount -t vfat /sdcard* ?

Yes I tried it and it doesn't work. Is there anyway to flash the bootloader or the ramdisk?

[G1 General] mike105105:
Download the ubuntu live cd, burn it, then boot your computer with it. Plug your SD card into an external reader, NOT the g1. Run gparted and select the sd card from the list of drives and see if you can format or re-partition your card. If it wont let you then try selecting Device->Create Partition Table, to create a new partition table. If none of that works then either your card or card reader is dead.

This tool copies files to the windows directory on your device, use at your own risk!

*Rated 5 stars by Xbox

About

This tool is made by me to make testing of manila files easier.

It takes me around 20 seconds from I save my changes in m9editor to the changes are visible on the phone ;)

This is intended on developers that already know a bit about the manila and lua files.

Setup device

Install sdkcerts.cab

Install xbmod policy.cab

Reset device

Connect device to pc with activesync

How it works

Build

All *.lua files in the project folder are compiled and copied to the output directory with their correct *_manila name (embedded *.lua files are ignored)

All files in the project\includes folder gets copied to the output directory

All *_manila files in the project folder gets copied to the output directory

Deploy on device

Copies all the files in the output folder to /windows/ on your device

Restarts manila

Backup device files

Copies all the files on the device /windows/ folder matching the files in the output folder to <projectname>\backup\

Create CAB

Helps you create a cab of the files in the output folder

How to use

Open ManilaKitchen.exe

Create a folder in the projects folder called "My test project"

Click Refresh list in the app and select My test project from the list

Click Open folder (you should have a couple of new folders)

In projects\<projectName>\includes\ are files that you want to add with the deployment that are not *_manila files. (jpg's etc..)

In projects\<projectName>\ you put all the *_manila files and *.lua files for your project (you can add other files, but these will be ignored when you click Build.

When you click Build projects\<projectName>\output\ will be filled with all the files *_manila, *.lua (compiled as their correct *_manila) files and the content from the includes folder

Click Deploy on device and look on your device (you might get a install notification) to copy all the files from the output directory to the windows folder on the device

What are some good AIM clients that to some certainty don't end up counting as Text/IM by AT&T? Or, which clients use Text/IM so I can avoid them?

Also, which of the data-based clients allow you to click on links sent in messages? Neither the included AIM client on my Fuze nor the official AIM for Windows Mobile allow me to click or highlight text in the messages. Major flaw IMO.
