[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bgoldie:
If the Nexus you get from someone in the UK was bought from Vodafone, then it has a later Eclair build than the ones bought direct from Google, either EPF21b or EPF30 (EPF30 fixes the MMS resizing issue). Although it isn't Vodafone branded, it is different as it has some changes to make it more suitable on European networks I believe.

However, these phones will recieve their updates a bit later than ones bought direct from Google, as new builds need to be tested and approved by Vodafone before they allow Google to send them OTA (hence no Froyo OTA yet). Although, you can of course unlock the bootloader a flash a Stock US rom to get the latest updates or any rom you like.

ok so i really want to root my phone, just asking a what if, and accepting any info.

i have an htc magic from rogers with the sense ui update. it came with it on it. now i dont see a root coming any time soon, but i was thinking, would i be able to install a previous rom on there like a DEV one and then root it and put the sense ui rom on it?

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigslanki:
i have had problems with Rom manager not flashing recovery correct leaving me with no recovery. so i had to manually flash recovery following these steps exact. I have personally bricked 2 ERIS phones lucky me.The first i thoought it was just something i did, lucky i had another to replace it...(the second BRICK eris).

So here is a solution to keep from having a BRICK

USE Amon RA's Recovery PERIOD.

credit to northmendo @droidforums

1. download flash_image Here Updated Link 3/17/10

2. Open the terminal and copy and paste the following commands.

adb shell [hit enter]

su [hit enter]

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system [hit enter]

3. In a new terminal window (don't close the original one).

adb push flash_image /system/bin [hit enter]

exit [hit enter]

4. Now in the original terminal window

chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image [hit enter]

5. Now exit all termainl windows and reboot your phone.

6. Download

Amon_RA's recovery Here.

7. Mount your phones sd card and drop recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img on to it and eject

your phone.

8. Open the Terminal and copy and paste the following commands with the phone connected

to your computer.

8. adb shell [hit enter]

9. su [hit enter]

10. flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img

11. To get into recovery turn off you phone and hold the Volume Up + Power until it boots into recovery.

That's it.

I wouldn't use clockwork recovery, it messed up my installation to the point i couldn't flash any rom or restore any nand. When i would try to flash anything it would fail, It failed when i tried to use the root rom....After I tried flashing root rom i had a nice looking brick on my desk....(I even changed back to RA but Clockwork had messed up my phone so bad that RA didn't even work either....

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkillakilla:
I'm not sure how to flash amons on a mac. I know for windows you put the recovery.img in the sdk tools folder, boot into fastboot and type

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

To get stock recovery (I assume you want your phone back to stock) then flash the official ruu. Will return your phone to 100% stock. You can find it on a sticky in the Eris general forums I believe.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkillakilla:
I'm not sure on a mac, but on Windows you put the img in the tools folder of your sdk, boot into fastboot and type in adb:

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

To get stock recovery back, simply flash the official ruu found on a sticky in the Eris general forums I believe. Flashing the ruu will unroot your phone.

I installed Amon Ra as part of the root for leakers instructions some time ago. -- Is there a new version out? (Search was surprisingly not helpful) And what is the best way to update recovery?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
There is no new version out; the first version (v1.6.2) is the only one that Amon_RA published.

IF there was a new version, you could flash it by using adb with the existing Amon_RA. You don't even need to push a version of "flash_image" to the phone, because it is already in /sbin in Amon_RA recovery. Just get the recovery image to your SD card, start an interactive shell (adb shell), and then

flash_image recovery /sdcard/<wherever-you-put-it>/recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img

Yes, you can "flash a recovery partition by using the recovery" - because when you are interacting with it (the recovery boot), it lives entirely in a ramdisk.

The second easiest way is to have the engineering bootloader (1.49.2000 S-OFF) installed on your phone, and flash it with fastboot from the PC, as in

fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img

Note that neither of these two methods perform any integrity checks on the recovery image file that the normal "Flash .zip from sdcard" ROM installation method does. Therefore, it is imperative that someone using these methods is extremely diligent in cross-checking image MD5 signatures after it has been transferred to the SD card. Amon_RA also has the "md5sum" utility built into it's shell, BTW.

I mention this last point as a warning to newbs - they seem to routinely corrupt files when they transfer them to the SD card. (I suppose they are not using the "safely remove hardware" controls correctly, or they are getting truncated downloads).

bftb0
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slugdoc:
Thanks btfb0.

How does one get into the Amon_RA shell? Would it be "adb shell" from the computer when booted into recovery?

yep.

Hi,

did someone knows where htc music player stores the playlists?

I want to edit the playlist on pc.

thanks obiwan2k
[HD2 General] *KenShiro*:
Hi obiwan2k,

i think the playlists (created in manila music tab directly) are stored in this file:

"Device\Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\AudioManager_Eng.vol"

You can rename the file (as backup) and SoftReset your HD2. The playlist is deleted too.

!!! Be careful if you delete this file ... your music information and created playlists will be ... gone with the wind :-) !!!

Own playlists can be stored in:

" \Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\playlists"

...[*.pls-files / *.wpl or *.asx / i don´t know if *.m3u is possible too]...

They will be "activated" after SoftReset the device.

I hope this will help you.

greetings,

KenShiro

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnoggle:
However ironic the title may be, I updated my fiance's non-rooted N1 to the official release froyo and from the very beginning, it will work for a few seconds, then it will just freeze for a few minutes. I have patiently gone through and stopped almost every process, and nothing will fix it. It still just freezes constantly and usually requires a battery pull to get it to work at all. I told her she could try a factory reset, but she would rather just go back to 2.1-update1. I'm going to try renaming 22607-ERD79-update-nexusone-stock-signed.zip (or PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_1.01.1700.1_ERD79_release_signed.zip) to update.zip and reflashing it in the stock bootloader on her phone, but I feel like that won't work because it is a previous version and not really an update. Does anyone have any advice on how to just bring her back, or perhaps how to fix her freezing problems on froyo?

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] temperbad:
Try a fresh flash with no apps installed and see how its doing.... if it doesn't freeze then its a app probably ...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnoggle:
I'd like to try that, but she doesn't want to do a fresh install. I'd imagine that if an app didn't freeze 2.1, it wouldn't freeze 2.2. Besides, 2.2 freezes even after killing all applications and services.

I guess I'm really looking for advice on getting it back to 2.1 without rooting her phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] temperbad:
Just do a factory reset in settings and security ... no reflash. Just cause a app didn't freeze 2?1 doesn't mean it wont freeze 2.2. And even if the apps currently not running or closed, it'll still wack ya phone. I had a freeze every hour yesterday with my chosen apps installed, flashed 3 different times to no avail. Now I factory reset with only 4 definitely needed apps installed and haven't gotten a freeze yet. So my conclusion is 2.2 doesn't like something I've installed so I'm adding a few apps every hour to fins the cause.

Since I factory reset with my few apps. I haven't had a freeze yet all night and morning long..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa_I:
I'm having the same issue too. Not sure what is going on with FRF91, but my phone keeps freezing and I need to pull the battery to get it to respond again. I agree it very well could be an application, but installing every application one by one and testing would be a pain. Is there a better way to figure out what is causing the phone to lock up? Any time of log on the phone that would be helpful?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
Have you tried a factory reset? That might fix it... let us know what you find. I've noticed a couple of freezes as well, but I'm not able to factory reset it just yet because I'm out of town and don't want my phone down for even half an hour.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herrwinkler:
I have to pull battery a couple of times a day.

I'm having the same issue on 2.2. I have done 2 factory resets. Nothing. N1 call center said slowly reinstall all apps to see if an app may be doing it. No luck.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drowens:
Is anyone having issues with the screen still being responsive while on a call? My screen will go black but you cant still hit keys when you have up against your face.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] big_adventure:
I'm betting that you do not have a custom recovery and nandroid backup, or you wouldn't be asking.

I highly doubt that the phone will let you push the old firmware on top of the new one if you don't have a hacked recovery and a test-signed zip. But I don't know - you could try it...

Here is what I would do:

1. Install a custom recovery (like Amon-Ra 1.7.0.1), either by unlocking the bootloader, or by following the directions in the dev forum for doing this without unlocking if you have the fear. If you already a custom recovery, don't worry about this step.

2. Now boot into recovery and make a nand backup!

3. Now go ahead and try this one of two ways - either delete one application at a time until you figure out which one is killing you, OR do a factory reset and then re-add one application or a small number at a time until you figure out what is crashing you.

If it were me, with my 100 applications, I'd probably add 5 or 10 at a time. Once you get crashes after one group, try removing those applications one at a time until the crashes stop. The last removed app when the crashes stop should be the answer.

Of course, since you'll have to have adb running to get a nandroid, you could also just take a logcat of the running, crashing phone and see what app is killing it there.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Papa_I:
