[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
OK so I tried to use ADB to push an modded Launcher2.apk. For some reason (even though I copied and pasted the commands into the prompt) the launcher force closes over and over. I cannot do anything on the device. Tried a hard-reset but it survives, again force closes over and over.

How can I go back to COMPLETELY STOCK without being able to access the device?

EDIT: FIXED! Thanks grainysand for giving instructions. I'll also take this opportunity to flip the e-bird to the folks who snidely responded with things that not only didn't help, but just makes XDA that much less accessible. I hope those folks got a huge boner off of it. But again, thanks to those who did help.

Plug it into your PC and try rebooting into recovery via ADB commands?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
No idea how. If you know what commands to use that'd be greatly appriciated! :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sijones_uk:
adb reboot recovery
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatMew:
Just replace the file you just pushed with it's original, providing you still have it. If you don't find it, and then push it back over the top. It will still mount as adb, if you don't have debugging on persist through the popups and turn it on, adb push.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
I do have it, and I tried this, it didn't work. I cannot get to the device whatsoever, the launcher will not run, it repeatedly force closes. Tried pushing it back via ADB, the prompt says it copied correctly, but on reboot, same thing. I'm going to need to flash, just don't know how.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
Just restore the Nand backup you made before trying to push the modded launcher over.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
I didn't make one, which yeah, I know I should had; but I was in a hurry and I thought pushing the backup file back over would be fine if it messed up. But now that I can't get that done, not sure what else to do.

Return it to Google and buy a prepaid candybar phone that is not a smartphone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatMew:
By no means is your phone bricked, or even close to it. Do as we've suggested, there are tons of options that aren't listed here. Wipe, flash, etc. As I stated, push a launcher that won't clash with your system.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
Look how awesome you are! Dude, could we not have these kinds of posts? If you can't help, don't post.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
I already knew that... but thought someone should make the point. You should be able to fix this issue relatively easily by booting into recovery and flashing a custom ROM again. It should overwrite launcher2.apk, if I'm not mistaken.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
I'm not sure how to do this.. only ADB? I'm fairly new to Android, it's not like booting WinMo devices to bootloader and running an exe of course. I'm really dumb at ADB at the moment, so commands would really help me out. I do appreciate the help though guys! :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
We already told you to boot into recovery and go from there. Did it not work or something?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
I'm not rooted, but IIRC, turning off the phone, then restarting it while holding the volume down button will give you the option to boot into recovery, no? So all you have to do is copy the ROM that you originally flashed to the phone onto the root of your SD card, go into Recovery (I'm assuming you're running Amon_RA's Recovery, which is an excellent product), and flash the zip file.

If what I wrote sounds confusing or you don't understand it, then you were premature in rooting your phone and messing around with files therein, and you need to do some researching and reading on this site (including the G1 forum) for all the info regarding these processes.

Anyway, don't freak out... your phone will be fine. I'm going back to bed...but I'm sure someone can give you a step by step to what I said if need be (hopefully you know how do to this though)...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
What does the filename have to be? What if I only have the regular recovery? I tried the file unzipped and recovery just sat there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] level5music:
Ok I kept Googling and trying stuff. I got a stock rom from MDC and tried to flash it in stock recovery (I dont think it was amon-ra's, no real way to tell that I could see).. tried to flash the stock rom and it says Verification Failed. Ugh.. does anyone have step by step instructions? I'm really failing here.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
You can tell it's Amon_RA's. It's got a... well, depending on which version you got it'll either have the Nexus logo or a green or pink Carebear.

Anyway.

Download the Amon_RA recovery if you haven't already. Flash it (fastboot flash recovery filename.img).

Type:

adb reboot recovery

You should now be in Amon_RA's recovery. Select wipe and wipe everything. Then select "Flash from SD card" and flash whichever ROM you downloaded.

how can I go back to the stock recovery?

My phone is broken and I need to get it fixed but dont want any problems with warranty so to be on the safe side would like to restore everything back to normal, dont think i still have my first ever nandroid backup unfortunately.

Tried a search couldnt find anything useful.

[General Questions and Answers] ukjeeper:
First off, no I'm not trying to find out other peoples passwords.

We have, at work, a shedload of Smartphones of different types. Nokia E71's/E72's, Treo Pro's, HTC Touch Pro's, Touch Pro 2's and HD2's. I'm the lucky guy who gets to support them and help users set them up to connect to the exchange server.

Here's the thing. The Nokias are great in that when typing in their password for Mail for Exchange, i rarely have to get them to try more than once, because the password is briefly visible letter by letter as they type it in before it ****. As you know thats not the case for winmo Outlook. They only see **********.

So I'm handing most users a device they have never seen, with an unfamiliar keyboard, and the first thing they type is a complicated password that they can't see. Makes my life he11. And for an added bonus, Active Directory policy requires a password change every 60 days, which means they have to change the password on the phone too.

In addition, as you know, if Outlook gets messed up during setup/editing, its often a hard reset to fix. Great fun, especially on a Treo.

So, i am wondering if there an app/option/regfix to make the password visible while typing it in. Even briefly, like the Nokia's.

Any advice, suggestions would be great. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] ukjeeper:
So that'll be a no then?
[General Questions and Answers] deedee:
Doesn't make passwords visible but if you can connect to the PPC via ActiveSync/WMDC then you could use MyMobiler which would enable you to use your PC keyboard to type the passwords.

I'm using my x1 from 3 month...i have 2 reasons to change it: the slide is going damnly ko (i will go soon to service center...), and is missing video acceleration for divx....!!

I think the better wm phone now is lg gw820 expo....but i live in Italy and it is not available in europe....!

Another nice one can be samsung b7610!

If you like android try to consider the cheap lg gw620.

I think i will repair my x1 slide and may be i will wait Christmas to upgrade it, because when will be availabe wm7 phones, wm6.5 phone will be cheaper!

Stock ROM - trying to play some music through wired headset. Using an ordinary pair of headphones (Sennheiser), the sound is great, ordinary sound.

I plugged in my Bose on-ear headset (i.e. phones plus inlike mike) and the sound is weird - sounds like it is being played through a cavern, the treble has disappeared, some bass elements of the sound are emphasised and there is a strange reverberation, as I say, like it is being played in a cavern or echoing around a vast cathedral.

If I change the headset, everything is fine again.

Is there some way I can make the Jasjar work with the Bose headset, or is there something unique to the Jasjar's line out socket?

(The Bose headset works fine with every gadget I have).

Weird sound with Bose headset // Different port assignment

Hi rjstep3,

don't know if you still need an answer to this topic... As far as I know, headsets and Jasjar/Universal is a bit tricky... The assignment of each port for headphone (2 ports for left and right) and microphone (additional port) is different from the assignment of Bose's headset.

The only adapter for HTC Universal that seems to use the correct assignment I have found here:

www .ppctechs.com/HTC-Universal_439/accessories/3.5mm-to-2.5mm-Mic-3.5mm-Audio-Headphone-Adapter_374-356 .htm

I have not tried it out but at least from the comment on the site it seems to be a work-around.

Greetings,

Christian
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] rjstep3:
you're right - I no longer need a reply to this message, as the Jasjar is now finally consigned to the delete bin of my gadget life.

i'm not sure but SPB backup can be the solution.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
I agree. SPB backup is a good backup program with which you can do complete backups (i dont really use it though - i just use it to backup my files every night with the scheduled backup option). the nice thing is that you can set it to make your backups as .exe files so that to restore, you dont even need it installed. There may be some free alternatives, but imo, SPB backup is worth the money.

you cant make .nbh files afaik as those are ROM files. Your personal data is not contained in the ROM and you probably wouldnt want it to be.
