err, can it possibly be that you are in the wrong subforum? just checking your sig I mean...

well, I'm no chef so I can only be vague about it, but you need a kitchen for the device, add basic Wm version, apps and progs and also manila version (and probably something more as well) and cook it

adding it on a cooked rom is somewhat more complicated (if possible at all); i seem to remember a thread offering add-on like manila as a cab, but I'm not exactly sure about it

there is a lot of qualified folks here who are better able to answer that, so i will move the thread to general for continued input, but would also advice an visiting Chef Central (dev/chef support there) and do some reading/searching there

best

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general/q&a

i left the magic for xperiax1 because of the keyboard, flashlight, 3.5mm jack, dedicated camera button, etc. i do miss the bigger CAPACITIVE screen and android:( hope the devs dont give up on android for x1..

anyway i tried to find a cab but i dont think one exists for the xperiax1? i dont know ill check it out though. thanks
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samhain77:
:eek: It's impossible to install Manila with CABS! Have been discussed more times on the forum..... you can ONLY add manila and its components by cooking all its files and dependencies on a new rom!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikegotti:
exactly, there is a cab here on xda with manila/sense2.5 but i wont recommend it due to the fact that many dependencies were left out, meaning only some stuff works... and those manila/sense cabs takes over 20 mins to install... you can task29, flash a rom and setup in that same 20 minutes :)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draken Korin:

@spike at least now I know I'm not completely daft :)
[XPERIA X10 General] citizen416:
basically what the title says. couldnt fix it so i had no choice to go to pc companion to restore everything.

just a heads up.. do what the launcher says.. delete everything before resizing the screen #s or else you'll be screwed like me.:mad:
[XPERIA X10 General] Xstarz:
yeah, i had the same problem. I switchet to adw launcher. i think its better, much faster and more options
[XPERIA X10 General] AndyD777:
You don't need to restore the phone. Just boot it in to safe mode and remove Helix Launcher :cool:
[XPERIA X10 General] wrongfeifong:
there is a safe mode?
[XPERIA X10 General] citizen416:
yeah i didnt know how to do it and was too lazy to search the forums :p the force close loop was preventing me from doing anything at all.

will try adw launcher. thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] codevalley:
Hi,

I have ADP1 on which I installed OpenEclair2.1 After that I wanted to revert back to ADP build. While trying a lot of things, I accidentally flashed DREAIMG.nbh and got the T-Mobile-G1 boot screen and stuff.

Somehow I managed to install the hard-spl and and subsequently flash the stock ADP 1.6 firmware.

->But still my phone does not recognize any sim cards. It says No-SIM.

->When try to goto Settings > Security & Location > Set Up SIM Card lock, it is checked and when I try to uncheck using PIN:1234, it says incorrect PIN.

Is this because my phone still has traces of DREAIMG.nbh? Or is there a hardware problem?

Also,

When I boot using Power+Camera. It shows 'Serial0' and when I press back [with USB connected to PC] it does not show fastboot.

Any idea why?
[HD2 General] tai4de2:
TMOUS just lit up some more areas with HSPA+, including Seattle where I am.

Tethered to a laptop, speedtest.net consistently reports just around 4Mbit down and 1.5 up.

Opera on the device consistently reports around 1.5Mbit down.

Incidentally, the device doesn't show "H" in the taskbar, it shows "3G". This is reminiscent of my old AT&T Fuze, which required special mucking in order to coax it into showing an "H" icon.
[HD2 General] danog:
I'm stoked but just hope TMOUS isnt finished, as its still the same old speeds north of Lynnwood/Bothell. If the current status is permanent it'll be permanent torture for me :). 2 miles south of my house I get consistent 5500kbps down, 500kbps up.

And with Energy roms I've gotten "H" in the taskbar before HSPA+ went live. I've read in other threads that without a custom rom or installing a custom taskbar the H never appears. So speedtest is needed to see if you're getting HSPA or HSPA+.
[HD2 General] Gibbage:
Just got my HD2 yesterday, and the sales rep said they just lit up HSPA in Redmond (RTC)! Whoot!
[HD2 General] master_d:
HSPA+ is lit up here in southern california (LA + OC) and it's pretty fantastic. Got some tethered tests of ~4/1.5 and on the device on mobilespeedtest.com i was gettin ~2mbps. YAY t-mobile!

I downloaded ADW Launcher and I accidentally chose HTC Sense as default launcher and now I can't get ADW to come back up. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling ADW but still nothing. Any help please? Thanks in advance!
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serialtoon:
Theres an app called Home Switcher for that. Its free
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android007:
Yeah he;s right, get Home Switcher from the Market. It's sick and makes it reallt easy to switch. But without an app, you can click Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, then scroll to and select on HTC Sense, click and then select "Clear defaults". That will manually remove the defaults set to the "home" app as preferences.

From there, when clicking the Home button, you will be prompted for which Home launcher you want to use. If you only have Sense installed, it will just show your screen previews. If other launchers are installed, it'll ask you for which to launch and you can set one as default.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pettigrew95:
Awesome, thanks guys!! Much appreciated.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xr3al:
You could also always just goto market and uninstall awd and reinstall it, it will then give you option when you hit home button again.. Hope this helps..:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Abel86:
Or.......

You can also go to settings, applications, manage applications go to htc sense and clear defaults.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcbboy:
the home switcher tis the best option. It's much faster then going to settings>applications>manage applications and clearing defaults.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gisham:
Thanks

THANKS! Home Switcher wasn't doing the job, but clearing the defaults on Sense made all the difference.:D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dymanese:
1. Install HTC Sync 2.0.25 onto your PC (it came with your phone) (maybe the custom driver works but I haven't tried it yet)

2. Power off your device

3. Remove the battery

4. Plug in your USB cable

5. Insert your SDcard (any kind, it doesn't matter the type, i have 6 different cards and class associations in my possesion and have rooted all of my co-workers DI's today using all 6 cards for proof of concept, 9 phone total [Everyone wanted Wireless Tether) :-)

6. Insert your battery

7. Hold Vol. Down button + Power button

8. Start and loop (you can start this before now if you wish, just has to be before entering recovery)

9. After the phone scans the sdcard choose "Recovery" and press the Power button.

*10. SOLUTION: As soon as the white screen appears just casually (don't be a speed demon) click IN & OUT your sdcard and continue to do so (keep clicking it) when the black screen with triangle appears. You will be listening for the

last

windows chime that identifies the USB has registered. But, you want to stop with your last sdcard click IN just before the

last

windows chime is sounded through your PC speakers. You might need to do this a couple times just to get familiar with the timing of the windows sounds on your computer system. Those phones that don't have to do this and was rooted first have a much earlier timing of when the Exploit is active.

11. Now go get Rooted using the steps on the first page of this post.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vzw:
is this while running loop.bat? it didn't say
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cronus1995:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Inverted2:

[Droid Incredible Android Development] llCloNell:
Seriously , this is the EXACT same steps that has been posted numerous times before. When you speak of a Solution as something Final it SHOULD NOT involve trial and error steps that require timing or just *luck*.

What a waste of a post and thanks for im sure getting peoples hopes up.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dymanese:
Yes you run the loop but not necessary to run in a loop. Yes it is about timing and similar posts have been made but I think I've written it with more detail.

These precise steps worked with the exact timing on 8 DIFFERENT phones yesterday. If its not working for you then perhaps you don't know how to follow directions well.

Ouch.... Burned by last post

You know, just because it worked for you doesn't mean it will for others....

I CAN follow directions well, and I can't get it reproduced. (though it may be because I'm already rooted?)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dymanese:
Just keep clicking that card in your own intervals after the white screen and you will get it. With my own proof I can contest that there is a BIG misconception that this is only achieved during the White screen. NOT TRUE!!!

Those steps are what I experimented with trying to root my own DI and it worked. I was not convinced I'd get it to work on other phones since It's been days and countless hours trying to get mine to connect to ADB in Recovery. So, one of my co-workers let me try it on his phone with his different card type, and one co-worker after the other, success! The root I did on MY phone was with an sdcard I bought that came with some of the phones (SanDisk 2gb). I didn't get a free card from VZW. I had FASTER success with this card of all 6 cards I've rooted with. It took longer with the other cards, class 4 PNY, and off-brand class 6 cards. With the 2gb SandDisk class 2 it works on the first try for every phone I've tried.

Did you have HTC Sync installed as your active driver, I really can't say if the customer driver works as I haven't tried it myself? My laptop is the latest Sony VAIO F-series with Core i7 with Windows Ultimate x64. In Device Manager, while in HBOOT my phone only showed up as Android 1.0 and as HTC Bootloader.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
No, and if you want to be in tune with the FINAL SOLUTION, your chakras must be aligned with Lady DI and her mysterious ways. I recommend balancing her on your head while you sleep for a fortnight, and then comes the sacrificial goat!

Seriously OP, I followed the last CARD CLICK prophet's advice and now my card mushes into lock--the DI just ain't built for the kind of abuse frenzied insert/ejection creates. I respect that you're good at what you do, but as others have found, teaching timing with http very difficult, at best.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 4x4r8d:
I installed root by using an old laptop with XP... I had one point installed the HTC drivers. In this case, I had unistalled the HTC drivers and the HTC sync driver. Now I only used the SDK usb.inf drivers with the modified line for HTC incredible.

Oh CHAKRAS! Formula 51 reference FTW!!!! B.E.S.T. M.O.V.I.E E.V.A.R.R.R.R.!.!.!.!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
Believe it or not, I haven't seen it yet--just added it to my Netflix queue tho.

OP, can you get us a dmesg of you hitting the timing with your method? I want to see how it reacts to mounting/checking the sdcard devices more than once in recovery boot. I think good dmesg logs would help us all figure out what's going on here . . . .
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dreamersipaq:
From what I've seen

It depends on how quick you insert/remove. It takes anywhere form a 1/2 second to 1 second between the initial "Slot changed from 0 -> 1" to where the card is actually mounted. If you click too fast, you never that that "mount" so you'll never get root, since it seems like the "mount" is actually causing the error we need. If you slow down your insert/remove to a slower pace, you'll get numerous mounts of the sd card. This might increase your chances of getting root because you're mounting multple times, but it makes the mounts more random then precise timing, and unfortunately, to get our error that we need, the read needs to happen at a percise time. You've seen the dmesg that was posted by 'mite.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] vacaloca:
THANK YOU OP! Worked for me :-D

My other 2 incredibles had worked consistently, but this one took your process to get.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
Yeah, and I'm still wondering why he was so 'elliptical' about explaining what was going on there. I still can't figure out if it's the mount process or the mounted card that triggers the adbd event, or if a delayed sdcard process simply pushes adbd start into the recovery window, when commands such as 'adb shell' can be received by daemon for a split/few seconds. Would be nice to hear his explanation of what system events are occurring outside of what is logged in dmesg. The OP says mount event can complete in recovery/black screen, you say sdcard mount must complete before black screen, that's a big diff.

I wonder if it's possible to create a host-side script that reads dmesg, watches for card mount and triggers 'adb shell' at a much faster rate than a simple win shell 'loop'. That would be killer, and would eliminate all need for card insertion timing, IMO.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dreamersipaq:
I don't think so. Don't have the devices in front of me right now, but I believe that the phone is disconnected from the PC (that first do - do) before our window of opportunity, which means the pc is not communicating with the phone at all. So if (big if) I am correct, nothing local to the PC can be done to initiate anything AT THE TIME that we need it to.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] rynosaur:
Dat's kinda what I thought :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dymanese:
I'll try to get you guys a dmesg as soon as possible. I'm at work right now and I'm responsible for alot of servers at a law firm in DC. (never get any free time it seems) I'm been trying to check in with you guys as often as I can. It's brutal today because we have Maintenance tonight throughout the morning.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mtxpert:
This is what I found by myself to work for me after trying for 3 days originally.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] StirCwazy:
Say what you will about the OP, but the timing is key and his post did help me out. I've tried tons of cards, every method out there and had no luck, until now. So for what's it's worth, this post was much appreciated.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dreamersipaq:
No Flame

I'm not saying anything about the OP. I'm sure his method DOES work, but to me, it WORKS because sometime during the pop in / out / in / out you're getting LUCKY and hitting the right time. Unless I see a dmesg which shows otherwise (i dunno, maybe the constant pops slow down init, increase usb load, whaterver...), I stand by my idea that the "previous" pops were an unnecessary strain on your sd port which is fragile to begin with. Without a dmesg showing otherwise, I'm quoting the slogan "Pics or it didn't happen"

That said, OP, this is nothing against you, and in reality, PLEASE prove me wrong so that people that have been having problems for days have an easy way to get root!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] llCloNell:

Thank you to the OP. This worked for me.

Me:

Windows 7 64-bit

Intel i5 based laptop

PNY 8GB Class 4 card formatted FAT32 with ~1GB of stuff on it

I found that the trick was having the card out when the "USB Disconnect" sound went off and in right before the "USB Connected" sound went off.

I still can't get it 100% of the time. More like 1 in 3. This is significantly better than the 0 for 400+ I was getting.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Bxsteez:
I try to attempt every method to provide some sort of feedback to the community. To be honest none have worked exactly as posted but I have acquired root by fiddling with the SD card after the incredible screen appears and flickers a bit. I do agree with rynosaur. We are alll just grabbing at straws trying to get root and help others. There doesn't seem to be a fool proof method but we know root is possible

I tried this method as well and haven't had any success.

I am quite sure that several people at HTC's HQ are getting massive raises/bonuses for having all but stumped the best semi-pro modding minds on earth @ XDA for a solidly secure DI, as opposed to those responsible for the Evo rollout!! ;) I think they deserve those bonuses since the Lady DI I have in my hand is dawn near perfect even without my imperfect/half root.

I assumed that gaining root access and flashing a custom rom were two different procedures to be done in that order... I didn't use ADB for anything... I just flashed a new rom using the guide.

How do I check then? Is rooting required to flash a custom ROM?

Please excuse my noobidity :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikael120:
the only thing required to flash a custom rom is a custom recovery (amon-ra) in order to flash a custom recovery you need root which is why root is required. hoever if you already have a custom recovery then no, root is not neccesary. just boot into recovery (home + power) and select "flash zip from sdcard" then select the zip containing the rom you want to install. I would reccomend villianrom 10.3 if you want a fast and stable 2.1 rom.

Villianrom 10.3 can be found here:http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=1002

ps: remember to always perform a nandroid backup before flashing custom roms. it is also highly recommended to wipe the data and dalvik-cache before flashing a new rom or restoring a nandroid backup.

I have followed it now, and stuck on installing CM5.

If i boot with Home+Power and use "Flash zip from sdcard" and select the updatefile, it works. I reboot, but it never starts... it only say "HTC Magic".

I guess I need to install the kernel (bc-5.0.7-ebi1-signed). But i don't know how to do that and can't fint a guide.

I try:

fastboot flash boot bc-5.0.7-ebi1-signed.zip

and it says:

"< waiting for device >"

even if I can find the device with adb devices.

Any ideas?
