stuck on android boot logo after reflashing rom

Hi

...I'm also asking here in this thread, because I just don't know if myHero or Magic GyD is installed at the moment..

I really hope you can help me. I just received my first (32a magic) andriod phone -- not brand new, but just some weeks old.

I got it sold with the current myhero rom pre installed (it was allready running on this device but before selling, the owner re-flahed it)

sadly, because it was working with no troublis until this time he didn't test the phone after installing - today I got it shipped and since hours I'm browsing through a lot of sites, searching for tipps..

the problem:

-)the htc does not boot. after switching on the green android logo appears and stays for ever.

-)trying power on + home button for the fastboot menue does not work - same again, just the logo.

-)pressing power on and the track ball just makes a blue led light on, nothing else

-)when plugging in the usb cable the phone turns on but in some cases it just stays standby with a orange status light on the top --- and in this case windows does recognize an uninstallable usb device.

in detail it says:

USB device not recognized

one of the attached usb devices has malufunctioned.... and so on.

on device manager side, I see a unknown device - but no driver works for it (also tried the androis sdk one..)

.. maybe because I can not turn on USB debugging on phone side?

I hope you can give me any further hint!!

thanks a lot in advance

Hello GyD,

First of all, thank you for the good work.

And now, here's is my problem: i installed the update but the Android Market is not wirking, i can't download any applications .

I can browse the market section, i can click install, but nothing happens. I reinstalled your ROM and is the same situation, i changed the WiFi connection. All my wifi apps are working.

Do you have any idea of what is wrong.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Sounds like a bricked (dead) phone m8, have you tried holding down home, while powering on your phone? If you can get into recovery mode, you should be able to install the GyD ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Have you disabled Google talk, or forgot to add a gmail account?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
Stop your downloads

- Go to Settings > Applications > Manages applications

- Choose Market

- Force stop and Clear cache

- Press back button

- Select Google Apps

- Force stop and Clear data

- Go back to market app
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zoloz2005:
now it's working :) with no additional settings, maybe there was a problem at them.

thank you anyway!:cool:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midnightmach:
i've tried to flash this ROM but it says

“E:cant open /sdcard/update.zip

(no such file or directory)

Installation aborted."

what am i doing wrong?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
I would say you are not in recovery mode ? Are you trying to use a program to flash?

You need to download a recovery.img and the GyD 2.1 ROM and the 2.1.1 update, and put it on your sdcard, then you could use Recovery Flasher to flash the recovery img onto your phone. You then power down the phone, and reboot it holding Home down during the boot. In recovery mode you then choose update from .zip, and apply the 2.1 and then the same procedure for updating to 2.1.1..

But i would recommend that you make a backup of your phone using a backup app, then in recovery mode, make a Nandroid backup too..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
GyD - My ROM sometimes reboots, its like some apps make it reboot..

I tried Klaxon Alarm, when it fired 2nd time, my phone reboot.

I have Facebook for Android, browsing my feeds, my phone reboot.

Do you have any idea why ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] midnightmach:
I was using the menu that comes up when powering on with the home button which i think is "Amon Ra recovery image"

Right now i am using redglasses 2.0.5 rom but i want to switch because of some minor problems...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
I had two reboot during dev with browser on website but nothing now. I'll try Klaxon Alarm.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] myx4ever:
I have no problem whatsoever till now with the rom. I still have 2.1 without the 2.1.1 update installed and it's perfect.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lpasq:
bug report:

3 times in last 72hrs: upon party answering my outbound call to them, the answer vibration continues requiring me to hang-up call. i hear the person i called, they hear nothing. random and can't duplicate.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SadiaH:
@lpasq

If you have installed "NetMeter" try uninstall. That was my problem. The same think did big performance problems when wifi was connected.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
Will this rom work with

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2009 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

without Can't chown/mod /system/xbin error??? pls quick answer
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Yes it will..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
I have a huge problem - I mannaged to install it but it sucks. Just because of Albums app that doesnt work on my magic, it says Sorry! the application albums has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.

What should i do?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MindHealer:
Mine works good
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Reinstall..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Hi GyD,

Are you currently working on anything?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
I reinstalled it and now my music player is not working. -.-
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Applied the 2.1.1 update?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
No because the 2.1 is not working either [link]

but i installed 2.0.5 or something lik that i cannot remember for the third time and it works ike a charm :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Well BobbyB, i have some small glitches and bugs in 2.1.1 too, but overall its the best version on the market..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
Should I stick with it or install official RUU SenseUI? :)

And how do I update from 2.0.5 to 2.1.1 ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Just install 2.1 without wipe, and then apply 2.1.1 update. I would advice making a nandroid backup before installing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
But can you gimme a link for 2.1 cuz the one on the first page doesnt seem to work :S
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
On the link post, click on mirror. You'll get a direct download instead.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
Thank yooouuu :)))

Should I install it with Recovery ROM Amon Ra without any wiping??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
And yeah, do scenes work, cuz on this one im curently running they don't seem to work. It just changes wallpaper, the rest is blank [except from 4 icons on the middle screnes. Theyre always the same. :S ]

Is 2.1.1 more stable than 2.0.5.1?

is it better than MyHero and why?

And is the menu up slide smooth or buggy like now? :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Yes, scenes work, you have to create them yourself. Apply via amon RA, no wiping. 2.1.1 is the best version I have tried. Much faster than Myhero, no lagg. Simply better and faster.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
How do I install 2.1.1? Now I installed 2.1 and i cannot see ANYTHING different then the previous one.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
Unfortunatelly i use only this sound from start sing Magic and experieced this bug (on new roms) few times so maybe it comes random :/

EDIT:

So U see ... there is no rules for that :/ It comes suddently from nowhere ... that`s the reason of my back to my Hero 1.1.3 beacuse there are no BUG like this :/ But would really love to use f.ex. your ROM ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
-- removed --
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
must flash back to your rom first ... ;) is that adb "say goodbay" to this bug ? Please check this in ringtones preview .. are they still Lagy ? Beacuse not only ringtone got this ... alarm sound in the morning keeps playing asweell after reject ... I want to have free choice of ringtones without doing adb everytime i want to change ringtone :/ And if U can ... please tel me stepo bu step what to do ... Go to console and just write adb logcat ? where to change ringtone ? On the phone screen by finger ? ;) sorry for noob qestion but do not know command adb logcat
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
Ok, for the alarm, sometime it take 2 secondes to stop:

I press the stop button, it turn green, nothing append during 2 seconds.

When the prompt window dispear, the sound stop without delay.

Assuming the logcat it's not a Sound Bug.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
So flashing your ROM in few sec and will se what happen. Anyway what is logcat ? and why this helps in this sound case ? Is there a way to include any fix for this without do any adb command ? after that ROM will be fully working for me ...

EDIT:

Did exactly what U said ... but still have LAG in preview of ringtone ... Maybe i`m doing sometihg wrong ... When changing from Glass to Happy and from Happy to Glass Happy plays tilll the end... But starge is that between Innovation and Glass there is no Lag

Laggy are:

Blippy, Curve, Fire Fly, Happy, Heavy,Old phone ... and some more ... but not all in preview :/

adb didnt fix anything for me ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
it's the stupid part of the problem…

logcat only show you the logs of you phone…

can you copy paste the logcat during the ringtone changes?

edit: the bug is back again but desapear when playing with ringtones

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
As screen shot yes ? Sure i can ;) If this only could help U ... And me :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] engangel:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
I'm doing some test with an Amon_RA kernel, the Mp3HwPlayer don't seem to start for ringtones… ( but wifi/BT/multi-touch don't work ).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:

Great that our researches yesterday were motivation to find solution for this issue :D THANK U ALL (U and Case) for this ! 7 minutes left ;) Can`t wait :D Of course BT WiFi etc works yes ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
I've nothing to pair for BT exept computer so i din't notice bug, maybe a bug with A2DP (try seto_613 patch, i'll include it if i've bug returns)

Wifi Work (i used wifi most of the time ;)),

Wifi Tether work (tested)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
Will try A2DP asoon as possible ;) Just downloaded :) Will give U o shout when i`m done :)

EDIT:

Ringtones seems to work fine now ... No lagg in preview (so i think when someone will call there will be no lag aswell ;)

Unfortunatelly A2DP doesn`t work :/ can control but no sound in headset .. But only in music player ... When i`m in call i hear sound of caller.

If U`re able to fix a2dp in music player taht gonna be best rom so far ! ;) Fast as 1.1.3 ... and everything else seems to work great :) Trackball glowing ;) So only A2DP in music player ...

What is default CPU range ? 256-384? Or 384-512 ?

EDIT2:

Pushed files from HoFo thread from seto_613 from 3.0.3 to 3.0.5 and A2DP fork GREAT NOW !!! So for fully working ROM GREAT ROM !!! include those files in your ROM ;) Hope ringtones bug will not come ;) And hope CPU range is default 384-528 if not please include this aswell ;) Than i will reflash this ROM and customize it and USE it :D:D THANKS !!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] helderp:
Those are great news! I'm waiting for a new release with everything fixed. Thanx
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
GyD please set 384 - 528 as default ;) Because sometimes ROM slows down ... But apart of this GREAT PIECE OF CAKE :D:D Thank U !!

EDIT:

First incoming call ... NO LAG = HAPPY ;) Hope more :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] engangel:
thats really great job

but please can u add arabic language to rom so i can use it

best regards
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
There is one more thing :D Could U add Spare Parts as a default app inside ROM ? ;)

summary:

- A2DP fix from seto

- default CPU 384-528

- Spare Parts

;) THNX again for GREAT ROM !
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Bobby94:
Ok, i just installed 2mb update like its some kind of ROM, and now its the same as before... :S

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabioccoelho:
Hey GyD i´m waiting for u GyD 2.x ROM (aka Eclair)

Cheers man.

:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lpasq:
thanks for reply regarding the vibrate bug when outgoing call is answered but i do not have NetMeter installed.

do you or others experience this: SMS Popup will crash and device restarts from point after the boot screens. this happens when incoming sms popup is received as device is either laying flat or in portrait orientation. i confirmed two instances that it occurred when the device screen was dim while phone in the pre-sleep mode before lockscreen activated. once the device was in hand and as i looked at screen g-sensor had unit in landscape and was rebooting. once the device was flat on table and unit in portrait and was rebooting. both instances the sms popup was visible in its normal position floating over as foreground while the reboot activity was visible behind popup and the popup was frozen with no action on any of the popup feature buttons.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
What ROM's have you guys tried? Have any developer made a ROM based on Android 1.6 yet?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lpasq:
old rom was fatal1ty and currently run myhero and gyd ...all were/are stable roms on my device.

can't comment on 1.6 or 2.x roms since i am hopeful redglasses or gyd might cook a sapphire sense 2.x someday; buy have no problem waiting while enjoying the solid rom performance they both now deliver ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
I've 80mb free ;)

The 2.1.1 is a kernel update no change, debugging is off.

Some asked me witch app and wich cpu freq I use.

For app, i'm using setCPU and Advanced Task Manager.

I've tell ATM to kill unused app every 30minutes

Set CPU use those freq:

128-245 screen off (no problems for music player with mp3/m4a)

384-528 screen on (fastest htc_ime input)

When battery go < 50% i set manualy the freq to 245-384 (or 528): the setCPU option create bug with music player :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
I use ATM too, and have the same setting. I haven't tried using setCPU. Are you working on any updates for this ROM GyD?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
I'll try to unodex apps and test if we have some speed improvements.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
A friend of mine has a Magic vers. 32A, spl is .0009 version - We have GyD 2.1.1 on our phones - He has a lot of troubles with his phone, it reboots a lot, and it often requires him to type his pin-code, after coming out of sleepmode. I have Spl .0010, could it really make that much difference ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
I got SPL 1.33.0009 too and have NONE of any BUG mentioned here ... So i don`t think it have something common with this ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
No, it's really weird. But i think i will try reinstalling GyD on his phone, wiping everything and making the new ext4 partition with amon RA.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabioccoelho:
I got SPL 1.33.0009 too and no have same BUGs. My phone works fine. My board is a 32A too.

:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Krzysiec:
If U don`t use app2sd tweak U don`t have to even create this partition ... I don`t use app2sd ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
But its supposed to make the phone faster, isn't it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Setup

If anybody knows, I would like to hear which setup is the best, the fastest. And what setup do you have?

My setup is:

Sdcard 8gb

partitioned into 3, systemdrive, ext4 storage, and cache partition.

I used Amon RA 1.5.2.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] scylla69:
It's just an UNeducate (;p) guess but maybe pp who are experiencing uncommon issues with the rom had some troubles while downloading it and therefore its buggy for them ?

There's no md5 checksums in the first post so maybe it would be a good idea to add them and see if all us, and especially those with buggy GyD rom, share the same md5 on their computers ?

cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] GyD:
Update process verify files but here are md5:

Magic_GyD_v2.1_Sense.zip

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
GyD probably rebooted once on me when I was using it.

Update to 2.1.1 it was flawless when I was using it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rentthedog:
Could somebody tell me how to install this ROM? I have a Rogers sapphire with nandroid recovery, so I'm guessing I just copy the zip as "update.zip" and then install it in fastboot mode?

Also, does the LED light work with the Missed Calls app?

Sorry, I haven't updated my ROM for months so I don't know how things work around here anymore. :confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabioccoelho:
To install this ROM u need Recovery by Amon_RA. Download this ROM, Wipe and flash.

All works fine dude.

Cheers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] joetong:
Really a great rom, thanks !!!

Waiting your final release~~

Hi,

I have a problem with youtube aplication. When I trie to watch a clip an error apears "Sorry, this video cannot be played"

Maybe it's a HD video.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Some videos have restrictions towards mobile phones due to illegal downloading of copyrighted software. Have you tried other videos?

Hey GyD? Are we gonna see your ROM based off the new HTC Hero GSM System Dump Android 2.1 w/Espresso?

I would really love to see this on my Magic ;) Of course with GyD ROM only :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] fabioccoelho:
Me too!

:D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] lpasq:
i can report same bug and it has been happening more often. i did not have it with myhero. i had the missing paid app bug with myhero so i'm happy with gyd so far otherwise.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] swissp:
I've seen this bug with Magic GyD but not since 2.1.1

I find it really strange that some people have the bug and others don't... I'm also starting to wonder if different SPLs could be the reason of this. I know the SPL is theorically only a loader and shouldn't interfere with the system functions but who really knows the ins and outs... I'm thinking about that because the same day I flashed 2.1.1 I also flashed 1.33.2005 and as I said I haven't seen the bug since that day (any bug actually - I had 1.33.0009 before and didn't change anything in my apps setup).

As for Android 2.xx and the new HTC UI, I'd love to get this too but we still have to wait for HTC, T-Mobile or others to release an Android 2.0 update for the Magic so we can have a working camera driver, don't we? GyD is probably only waiting on this to begin the cooking.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] darvo:
The vibration bug doesn't only happen on outgoing call. It may happen with other apps using vibration. I've seen it with Better Terminal and other apps too. I think it happens when there is not much memory left and a lag causes vibration to stick but maybe I'm wrong.

For 2.1, I think Drizzy has camera working on eclair. Anyways, I'm sure an official release is close.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] dirt77:
But not for magic. Read this http://www.htc.com/ca/support/magic-rogers/help/system-and-upgrade

HTC is not currently planning any Android 1.6 upgrades for Rogers Dream or Magic. Android 1.6 was only made available for “Google”-branded devices such as the G1. It is not available for HTC-branded products such as the Dream or Magic, which use Android 1.5. We believe that Android 1.5 is a stable and reliable software platform that delivers a terrific user experience
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ionhide:
Well, then its great that we have Eugene and Drizzy to cook up the first marvelous eclair Android 2.1 release for us. Maybe we could get him a G1 for further development!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] darvo:
As long as any provider release it I don't really care about Rogers. Anyways, the only thing you can expect from a canadian provider is beeing screwed. This is what you agree for in this country when you sign a contract. Who's responsible? Our "beloved" corporate whore government and the CRTC.
