[Nexus One General] NexusSpain:
First of all, hi to all of you.

Me being a noob with the Nexus, something VERY messed up has just happened to me.

Let me explain from the beginning:

I received the nexus yesterday as a gift from a friend of mine who works at Google (yes, it is the one with the android waving a banner on the back of the phone)

Used it yesterday perfectly, even updated to 2.1.update perfectly fine.

Today, as the batter was dying out, I finally got home and started to charge it (the battery icon was white, with a red outline and a red slash across the battery icon)

Then, the Nexus stopped responding and turned off.

When I tried to turn it back on, it just stays on the boot screen and does nothing.

Now, I have tried the volume down + power button to get to the reset, chose "recovery" and it went right back to the frozen boot screen.

To my knowledge, it is not rooted (although I have read that the Nexus' that employees receive are rooted, I have no idea)

Now, I am stuck with a Nexus paperweight , it doesn't turn on and cant seem to get it out of the boot screen.

Any one here can lend a hand???

P.S. I hope I posted in the correct forum and want to thank anyone that can help ahead of time!
[Nexus One General] NexusSpain:
Update:

I did the volume down + trackball + power on thingy and I connected the Nexus to my laptop.

It comes out FASTBOOT USB in red, so it seems it is not totally bricked.

Found the USB drivers and...that's where I am stuck.

I know there is a way to recuperate the Nexus, but I have no idea how...any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I AM BACK. I'm working on Souffle 2.0, and re-uploading Souffle 1.2.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] gus_mccrae:
What apps, etc. are included & not included?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rogerbean101:
i wanna beta test!! lol :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
ooooh ill be checking this

yea id love to beta test
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
All sprint apps are there, some people like them. All HTC apps are there as well. Quick Boot, Espresso Rosie, etc. It's a rom made to fit people's needs.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
Downloading now...and should have it signed in a min or so.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] KBizzle:
Ill test.

10chars
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Thank you SO MUCH. I hate not being able to sign zips, testsign.jar doesn't work for me...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
We have THREE beta testers, room for two more....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
How do I PM you the signed version....do I uploaded it to you our email it to you? I'm uploading it to my server, but it's taking a while.

Is there a quicker way to get it to you. PM doen't have a "insert file" tab....plus it's huge.

it's currently 27% uploaded...

...now it's 45% :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thedudejdog:
you could just upload it to rapidshare or something then pm him the link?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
If it's a huge file just upload it to 4shared or your server or whatever and PM me the link. I'll post it back for everyone with screens once I know it works.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
I am already uploading it to my server...but once I PM the the link, just download it, get your screenies....and you can upload it to megashare or the other for everyone to use.

This way they are not using my link/server :D:):D

....83% done :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Ok, you got it. 83 percent not bad.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
heromeng_custom_signed.zip

[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Downloading.... My internet connection SUCKS so 20 minutes of waiting.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athlet1c:
Beta Test here
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
I can't wait to see the screenies!!! I am currently using Fresh 1.1

I was using Darch's 2.1 but that ROM was too "undone". I needed the camera more then I thought I would have...lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Same here lol. Firefox says 1 min left for download...... damnit now it's 2 minutes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
hey meng you can use this to sign your zips. Copy the testsign at the root of your mac drive and then drag and drop your zipped rom on the Android-sign app.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
FLASHING FAILED? You're kidding me... E: Can't open /sdcard/heromeng_custom_signed.zip (bad)

Installation aborted.

What the hell....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Here's the promised screenshot! But seriously, what the hell went wrong.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PRGUY85:
So this is a 1.5 ROM and based on Desire ROM? Does it permit installation of 2.0+ apps? What's the difference between this and the other 1.5 ROMs.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
This is NOT the desire rom, it is in no way related to the desire rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
hope you get the problems worked out we need a new rom to test run
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
It's not a problem with any of the contents of the rom, it's a problem with the zip. The recovery image can't open it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
ahhh might have gotten corrupt with the upload
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
yeah.... hmm... anyone else can sign a zip? the first guy's internet may have corrupted it..... go to first post for un-signed zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
did you see the file attached here for macs ?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5738731&postcount=20
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
I downloaded this from your original post and signed it. I got the same error trying to flash it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
What the hell... maybe my zip is bad. I'll try re-zipping the folder.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Here is a NEW download link that hopefully isn't broken: http://www.n5cjt.com/downloads/heromeng-custom-15.zip This is un-signed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] david279:
here..10char
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I tried that and it doesn't sign them right. I'll try it again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Konikub:
Not sure what happened...I signed it with Kitchen and it said it was successfull! I wonder if that is not the properway to sign ROMS....I sign my custom lockscreens with perfect success and installation :)

I hope someone can figure this out.......
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athlet1c:
I Signed the old one as im waiting to download the new one to sign. also what Kernel is this based off
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Standard HTC 2.6.27 kernel. You can load any custom kernel you like, I recommend Gumbo Kernel w/ Setcpu.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
downloading the new zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I know what happened with the version I tried to sign. When I signed it, it created the folder with the files, and then a seprate META-INF folder.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athlet1c:
Yeah the first install is bad im downloading again
[Hero CDMA Android Development] athlet1c:
Ok now it wont let me download grrrrrrrrr
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DiMa1720:
ill beta test if you guys get signed up and ready for download
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Any luck on signing the new zip?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
the new zip looks the same as the original and gives the same error after signing and trying to flash.

When opening the zip you have only two folders in the root of the zip. _MACOSX and heromeng. No boot.img or anything else. All rom files are within these folders. I removed all the rom files from the heromeng folder and zipped and signed them. They flashed fine, but when it booted the display was nothing but green lines. Had to pull the battery and reboot into recovery.

Attached pic is of root of zip file
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
That's weird. I'll give it a try right now....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I got the green lines too, that's just the bootscreen. It was supposed to say htc quietly brilliant, but I guess I messed up on that XML file. Running logcat says it's booting fine... I just need to fix the bootscreen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
did it boot up for you?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Yep. Took a while though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
ok, i will reflash...

You weren't lying, it took a LONG time, but it did boot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
There's a download on the first post with fixed Hero/Nexus Hybrid bootscreen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nbroneobi:
so what all is different with this rom whats included and all that good stuff
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Could you please put a description of your ROM in the OP? I don't know anything about it or why I should download it. I like to know what I'm getting into before I start flashing. Thanks! I appreciate it!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
You got it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] djjenso0n:
giving it a try

downloading it as we speak i'll let you know :-)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
Are you able to download from the market? I have tried several different apps and each one has been unsuccessful. This happens both through the network and wifi.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Download what from the market?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alexthearmo:
Thanks! I appreciate it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyandrwew:
bugs or glitches?

hey are there any bugs or glitches that you are aware of?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
Anything. Everything I try fails.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Trying to download from the market now.... what exactly do you mean by "it fails"? Does it give you the download failed notification or just doesn't download? EDIT: Market works for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sefferdog:
Gave me the download failed notification. Just rebooted and it is now working. Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andyandrwew:
no wipe?

no wiping necessary??
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
You should probably wipe just to be safe, but probably not.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nbroneobi:
great rom now i dont have to mess with 2.1 icon this or that lol now just need clear lock screen and im all good. thanks alot
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sporkman:
downloading atm will test and get post back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mikehager66:
Been running this the last hour and love it. Works great with the Gumbo kernel and no wipe was used. Made a backup of course, but other than that all the apps stayed installed and no other changes were needed. Thanks Meng!!!:D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I'm thinking of changing the name of this ROM to Souffle, has a ring to it, no? :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] cordevil95:
I agree... from the original post I have absolutely no idea what this Rom is.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Sorry about that, when I updated it with the new name, I forgot to put the description in :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Brutus2TheMax:
So is this basically a modified Fresh rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
No. Fresh is a modified HTC Stock rom, and so is every other ROM, including this one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Uploading Souffle 1.1, a minor update, performance increases, new bootscreen, etc.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Can anyone confirm for me what themes work/don't work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
THANK YOU! =o)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
That thing helped me a lot too. The dang testsign.jar doesn't work on macs, so this app helped me a LOT.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mikehager66:
Love this new build of Souffle. Went from Fresh to Modaco to Pancake and now this rom. I am finally ready to relax till the builds for 2.1 come out on XDA. Thanks for all the hard work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I am going to make a new, seperate build of Souffle based on android 1.6 called Vanilla Souffle, without Sense.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] derekstory:
now thats what im looking forward to:D

whats the ETA?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
would SMS work on this?

the sms on aosp 1.6 doesnt work for me. :[
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
It's worth a try, but probably not :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
**i need beta testers for vanilla souffle. Pm me if interested**
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
i just pm'ed you :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
i pm'd you back. ps, if you like my work, please click my google ads :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
sweet thanks! i'm downloading it now

i'll let you know how it goes when i flash it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kniteshift:
same 10char
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lrosenman:
Seems the HTC Stocks app and Widget are missing?

How can I get them back?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Rip them from stock and install them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kniteshift:
No swype, pretty good so far!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Vanilla Souffle is now up for download. Huzzah!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lrosenman:
Tried that, and it doesn't like the ODEX (I think).

Are they up some where I can d/l and install on this base?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mrchu001:
I got a force close at the end of set up :/

Also sms doesn't work for me :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kniteshift:
same.

10char, settings is gone for me, and i can't swap keyboard inputs.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lrosenman:
I'm using the Souffle_Rev2-Signed.zip, and SMS works.

it also seems that the IM program is AWOL.

I thought all the "stock" HTC / Sprint programs were supposed to be installed?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Thanks for feedback on Vanilla Souffle, I'll get on that in the morning.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Blkjck11:
It is great, it has everything in it like the stock rom, but it actually works well. Very quick, no lag even with several things running. Awesome job.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Cetus Corr:
Don't know if it was just me but I kept getting a force close on the gmail app and google maps. I tried flashing twice. Since I cant go with out that, I tried using quick boot to get back to recovery but that didnt work, so had to get to recovery the old fashioned way.

The goods... I noticed that it was super fast!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
Anyone using chompSMS with this ROM? How quickly do your screens load?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
I did a no wipe install of soufflé on stock (after root of course) and all is well.. no issues reported so far..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Is this on Vanilla Souffle or Souffle 1.1?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Cetus Corr:
souffle 1.1
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Hmm... didn't happen to me or anyone else. Try wiping data and dalvik and trying again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kniteshift:
Can anyone give me advice on how to repair market?

after flash, market went to poop, can't find ANY apps that I used to be able to search.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Hmm. Open build.prop and make sure it's a Cupcake fingerprint.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Souffle 1.2 released. Minor bug fixes, new bootscreen.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
v.1.2 so far so good.

stock>Souffle-1.1>Souffle-1.2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
How are y'all liking this ROM? Anything you like, don't like, want to be fixed, etc?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nbroneobi:
so far after a day of heavy use in the car with it all went really well. somehow a few widgets dissapeared on my home screen. not sure how it happened like if i did it on accident in my pocket or what but i added em back and no problem since then. but so far so good
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danknee:
So you prefer stock to either version?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tyrnight:
I know my math looks bad.. lol.. But thats Arrows to show the progression of a no wipe upgrade scenario.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danknee:
LOL I thought you were using it for "greater than". :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dirtydirt:
does souffle v1.2 have apps2sd?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
not natively. you need to do a2sd on from adb shell
[Hero CDMA Android Development] esoteric1311:
What apps are removed? and included?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
all sprint and htc apps are there.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] trevolutionary:
Only one hiccup so far

stock->Souffle 1.1

Soon plan to switch to 1.2

Only hiccups thus far has been with visual voicemail (error: voicemail cannot be downloaded) and the weather app (however this may be tied to a fault somewhere else, it continues to display the incorrect temp -6 F instead of 40 F right now)

Thanks for the great work, I love how the esthetics and minimalism of this ROM (no offense to Fresh fans out there but there were a few too many visual tweaks for me).

Oops..weather was set to C instead of F, my bad. So only issues with visual voicemail.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
I have one question, what kernel are you using for this rom? I was using the kernel from the toast rom will that cause any problems? I wanna try something new and see how this works for me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] warmachine69:
My new favorite ROM.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
This comes preloaded with stock 2.6.27 HTC kernel, you can load whichever you want. I reccomend gbhil's Gumbo Kernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
Ok thanks! this rom is super fast!!! my new favorite until a 2.1 roms comes out with a working cam
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Same here. When fully working 2.1 comes out, Souffle will be based off of it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
there's no BT?

people having sms problems?

market doesn't work?

I'm lost....is this vanilla souffle or not?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Yeah, this is vanilla souffle. Regular Souffle 1.2 has no known bugs or issues.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nbroneobi:
soufle 1.2 is working flawlessly so far for me havent had any problems yet after 3 days now good work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
Alright, going to give it a try tonight :D

and which kernel are you using by the way?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Comes with the stock 2.6.27 HTC kernel when you flash, I reccomend using Gumbo Kernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
flashed it last night but for some reason it wouldn't go pass the boot screen though....

I tried maybe 3-4 times and nothing.....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
What rom are you coming from, and did you wipe?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
yes I did wipe...I was using Gumbo 1.5.c Bare ...

I wiped more than just once to make sure it wasn't that...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
You mind running the logcat for me to see what goes wrong? And is this Vanilla souffle or Souffle 1.2?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
Souffle 1.2

I don't have the log...

but I'm telling you..It wouldn't load up at all for me ....

Darchdroid loaded up fine and so did pancake...

Your ROM was the only one that gave me trouble ..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
That's weird. You're the only person that had a problem with it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
that's exactly what I said to myself.....I'll try it later on this week and see if I can get it running ..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
If anyone else is having problems, feel free to tell me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
BT isnt working properly for me. My Stereo Bluetooth headset is paired, and connects, but when i hit play no sound comes through but the song is playing, as i can see the time moving. If you tell me how i will get you a log.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
You can get a log by running adb logcat and doing it on the phone as you would normally do it (while plugged in of course).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] lazyvegaskid:
Im tempted to load a 2.1 build again but the speed of your rom is just insanely stupid. As soon as we get a 2.1 build with cam could you please put one out with your optimizations because I am stuck on this rom till we get a cam working on 2.1 if you need a tester let me know I love tryin out new builds
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
ok, here's the log...

http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AX6MxkWEH2DkZDlnY3NmcF8zOThtbXAyZmM&hl=en

Sorry, i didnt realize it was seriously logging everything. I was doing some texting while trying to connect the headset. Now i think i was slightly mistaken, as the headset wont even connect to media. I must have had the media volume down low, so thats why it was playing, but i couldnt hear it. Hopefully the log can help you iron out the connecting to media part, which appears to be the issue.

Thanks again, this ROM is pretty speedy.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
2.1 Update: Once a working (or at least half working) 2.1 is out, I will base Souffle off of it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Download is not working for 1.2
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
Curious, this still hold true?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
OK guys, I'm working on Souffle 2.0 (based on 2.1). I'm on vacation, and I'm getting back on Sunday. EXPECT A NEW ROM ON TUESDAY! Please do not PM me until Monday, I have limited internet access. Gtalk me (i'll be on my phone). Gtalk at kevinstech@gmail.com
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joetemp75:
does this rom have gtalk???
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
If you need a server, I got quite a few. 2.5Gbit up/down too :P.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Uhh.... yes.

That's ok, I have my own. TSA would give me a hard time about my desktop, so the laptop without ADB and FTP software it is. :P Thanks for the offer, though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I am now going on a boat, and I'm not stupid enough to bring my Hero on it, so.... I leave you with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7yfISlGLNU

EDIT: I am no longer on a boat. Gtalk me: kevinstech@gmail.com
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
Any requests for souffle 2.0? I wanna see what you guys want so I can try to fit it in :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
Stripped of Sense, but add in the Nexus Launcher w/LWP. Clear lockscreen, and clear notif shade would be nice too. :D

Enjoy your vacation though. I still have to check out a couple other ROMs. :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] HeroMeng:
I am back from vacation. WORK ON ROM WILL COMMENCE NOW.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Negrito:
Looking forward to it. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] tstack77:
I am trying to make a clear genie-widget from the ported 1.5 version. I unzipped the apk but can't find the background.

This is my first attempt at modifying a widget and I am obviously missing something here...can someone point me in the right direction?

thanks

EDIT: Got it done. Both files available below
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Branwen:
If I had to guess, it would be widget_bg.9.png in the drawable folder?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] tstack77:
I do agree that it looks like the most likely suspect. So it's expanded allowing for different resolutions?

*I'm away from my comp or I'd give it a go
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] djmace:
Here you go, drop these 2 images into the correct folders, like in the zip. They work fine for me using metamorph
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] tstack77:
I tried the two files but they were not the correct png's. I figured out which image to modify (appwidget_bg.9.png in /res/drawable-mdpi), and then spent a few hours learning the ins/outs of .9.png images and the correct method of signing apk's.

So, after rigorous testing I present:

geniewidget_clear_1.5.apk (first post)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] justinisyoung:
nice work!

:p
