[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiamilo:
Dear All,

Pls help me. I don't know this trouble started. after i bought hd2, i could install all roms with a good performance of Manila,but now no matter what roms i install, such as kwbr, energy, it's very hard to get a stable Manila... every time i reset my device, soon Manila is dead, but i can access windows mobile start menu.

Does anybody know how to resolve this issue?

I tried to use mtty, but it didn't work....

thx
[HD2 General] stealthdragonb:
I have created this new thread as I have searched several days now trying to get vodafone live working on my telstra htc hd2 with no luck. I have contacted customer support on 1555 to send me the setting via sms but i never got it. I have also gone to the australian vodafone website to get the wap setting via sms but my screen just briefly lights up but doesn't show that any sms has been recieved hence i can't get the correct settings. I have also tried manual set up instructions on the vodafone web site but they do not work as well since it asks for passwords etc. I found a thread before talking about vodafone live on this website but it is based on the new zealand web site and assumes that you have got the correct vodafone wap setting etc which is what I cannot get no matter what I try.

Does anyone now how to get vodafone australia wap setting on the htc hd2 and hence get vodafone live working on the telstra htc hd2 handset. Instructions right from the very start would be really appreciated.
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Sorry I cannot be of more assistance, but in case you don't hear anything in this thread, try posting in the T9193 thread in this forum (search button will help you find it.) Though, it's dominated by Americans importing the phone :P
[HD2 General] mooves:
Hi, I've had my hd2 working on vodafone (sim is now in my Desire) . Even with the telstra rom your apn settings should be automatically set when you insert the sim. If you don't have any luck then you might need to flash the rom (and rid it of the bloatware).

First you need to flash an older Telstra rom from shipped-roms.com (1.46). Then you will be able to use hard spl (hardspl.exe), then flash any rom and radio from this fine website. I personally like ozrom or artemis. These roms will automatically set your apn and work.

If you can't be stuffed and know where to update the settings:

apn... vfinternet.au

No username or password.

For vodafone.mms try

Apn…live.vodafone.com

Mmsc...http://pxt.vodafone.net.au/pxtsend

Mms proxy...10.202.2.60

Port. 8080

Mcc.. 505

Mnc.. 03

Apn type.. mms

Authentication .. not set

These are straight from my fone.

[HD2 General] stealthdragonb:
hi thanks for the reply, I do have the vodafone setting when I click start etc so i can recieve my credit in phone via sms etc but its just that I need some way to input the correct vodafone live settings into the phone. Surely this can be done without flashing the rom how else am I making calls etc from my vodafone sim card.
[HD2 General] aboudy25:
any mobile shops in sydney know how to flash the telstra model
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thenewguy821:
I have been reading through the forums, trying to find out how to backup the apps and settings I am running. Between trying out ROMs and doing updates, I am about worn out of re-installing everything.

My problem comes from all the "______ is better than ______ for backups" comments. I would like to have a backup of the apps installed on my phone, preferably with settings. Which program is the easiest, which is most reliable?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sirchuk:
Only one I've used is Titanium Backup, just because it works for me. Just know that you will have to re-add widgets, and do a reboot before trying to run the apps as they may crash. The program is also updated very often (too often lately I think, getting annoying!)
[Droid Incredible General] ihtfp69:
I figured I would post this fix here in case anyone else ran into this problem. This is assuming you did not change the folder names and let Clockworkmod create them. I haven't had it happen until today, but it's not a nice message to see when you are trying to do a restore.

Checking MD5 sums...
MD5 mismatch!

To fix this problem use the code below. Substitute the final folder name for the backup you need to fix.

adb shell
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-06-29.20.22.53
# rm nandroid.md5
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

When that finishes, re-run the restore and everything should be fine.

NOTE: As rpearl stated, there could be something really wrong with your nandroid, so use this tutorial as a learning experience and not a fix-all. In my case, everything was fine after restoring. However, that may not always be the case. Do this with caution.
[Droid Incredible General] kentoe:
I had a md5 mismatch and was freaking out. Turned out that the folder name for my backup couldn't have spaces in it...
[Droid Incredible General] opcode1300:
This also works for anyone that wants a to make a 100% stock image but keep recovery.

just replace the boot.img and system.img with the ones from the RUU and recalc.
[Droid Incredible General] zeke1988:
i just got this problem. do i need the "#" for each command?
[Droid Incredible General] s197:
Any idea what causes this? Is it just the folder name with spaces?
[Droid Incredible General] trunksta:
No the # simply means you are logged in as root or Su

If its showing $ then you may need to type /system/bin/Su

I believe or could be /system/lib/su I'm still pretty new to Linux / Android
[Droid Incredible General] trunksta:
Spaces aren't allowed but it could also be caused by corrupted data or sometimes even simply renaming the folder
[Droid Incredible General] rpearl:
Be warned: If the nandroid was legit broken, then this will restore it *anyways* and your system won't boot / will have weird errors / whatever was wrong with the nandroid will be wrong with your system now.

Obviously you can just restore a previous nandroid if that happens.
[Droid Incredible General] zeke1988:
i did this and still cant fix the md5. making me to use the older backup :(
[Droid Incredible General] jinkzuk:
For n00bs could you elaborate on this post, i'm having the same problem.

"To fix this problem use the code below"

I know this is through cmd, but what needs to be where when i'm typing exactly that in (changing the folder name etc) what screen do I need to be on. If it was more detailed, and thank you so far because this is the only post on the net, it could be very useful!
[Droid Incredible General] kentoe:
If you're messing with nandroid backups by now, we'd hope you would know how to get adb shell started.

So basically you start up adb shell in a command prompt on your computer, this connects to your phone, then you follow those commands following "adb shell"

permission denied error

I'm using windows 7 CMD to connect to my hero for resolving this md5 mismatch issue.

But when i type in the last command, which is -

md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

it gives me an error -

md5sum: permission denied

I tried running the cmd as administrator also but I dont know in windows how to do a 'SU' like in ubuntu.

can you please give a tip what to do ?

Sean.

Ok wow you guys rock thanks this works great.
[Droid Incredible General] bast525:
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had this happen to me today... I woulda had to spend a crapload of time getting things all set up on my phone if I hadn't found this thread. It was my fault, I changed the name of the Nandroid backup folder... I had no idea you couldn't do this.... went to restore and BOOM MD5 mismatch.... noooooooooooo.

Thank you again OP for posting this you really saved my day today.

Jacked up Dell Streak/ US ver. build 6601 MD5 Checksum error

After screwing up my brand new Streak, I turned to XDA and MoDaCo to fix my screw-ups. :eek: Read this and did that, and nothing would work. The buttons would flash the Dell logo would come up and freeze. So here is another solution that worked for me Step by step.

Installed the fast boot using Windows 7 64 bit I downloaded Fastboot and followed there instructions. Not sure what it did for me, but I did it.

Now as the phone was, I was unable to do any kind manipulation of the SD card. I tool the micro SD card and put it into an SD adapter and added the files via my lap top. See instructions here

Technically you don't need to worry about flashing cache.img and data.img but i performed this backup after a factory reset so your not taking any of my personal info/data

fasboot didn't work for me for so i restored with nandroid

Nandroid

+Create a folder named "Clockworkmod" on your storage card

+In that folder create a folder named "backup"

+Create a folder in "backup" named whatever you want and place boot.img, system.img, cache.img, data.img, recovery.img and nandroid.md5 in that folder.

+Flash Clockworkmod Recovery

2.5.0.1 didnt work on mine but 1.8.1.7 did :/

+Enter clockworkmod recovery

-Power on device while holding both volume keys, then select "2. Software upgrade via Update.pkd on SD Card"

Now you should be in ClockworkMod Recovery

-Scroll down to nandroid using the volume keys and press the camera button to select it

-Select Restore and choose your folder (the one you placed in the backup folder)

thanks fone_fanatic 28th August 2010, 03:14 AM

DO NOT PUT ANY SPACES IN YOUR FILE STRUCTURE. I did and it gave me an "MD5 Check Sum Error" took the space out and bam it worked.

Rebooted the phone and so far every thing works. GPS, WiFi etc and no dam flashing lights or self reboots or O2 stuff :D Hope this helps ya....Good luck you will need it.

[Droid Incredible General] cscimmia:
I do not have ABD on my Win 7 machine so I had to use CMD as well. I too received an error, however mine basically said that md5sum was not a recognized command. Not sure where you got md5sum for your win 7 machine, but I got mine at the following website... (fourmilab.ch/md5/) and this one worked just fine. Unzip and copy md5.exe to the system32 folder.

If you are still working through this... good luck. Hopefully it can be helpful to someone else either way. --Josh
[Droid Incredible General] c0oL:
OMG ihtfp69!! You're a life-saver!
[Droid Incredible General] ihtfp69:

[Droid Incredible General] tdo700:
hey i tried the steps you guys gave buy i get

# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-10-30.08.23.53

cd: can't cd to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-10-30.08.23.53

this is what i did.

I opened terminal in OSX and typed "adb shell" after that i typed "cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-10-30.08.23.53" but it didnt work.

anyone know what i did wrong??

i also did "adb devices" in terminal and it detects my device. i check the su on my sgs and i see my computer, it sees it as unknown.
[Droid Incredible General] mode7456:
This worked for me like a charm!

What i did was, i just deleted that nandroid.md5 and then created a new file with that name, so yea basically the same thing.
[Droid Incredible General] GreenneeG:
when you want to rename nandroid backup folder don't use space ..

this is how i solved md5 mismatch

Holy S**** was I freaking out.

Had a LG optimus G E971. Flashed to AOSP and because these crappy devices don't have an SD card, everything is emulated.

Nandroid backup failed on MD5.... WTF. Crying in the corner.

Found your post about spaces; removed the spaces and restore works fine.

[Droid Incredible General] ihtfp69:
Check that the directory exists. Also check your dots and dashes. It may be this instead.

/mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2010-10-30-08.23.53
[Droid Incredible General] tdo700:
Ill try that when i get home from work.
[Droid Incredible General] kimlindo:
I got this yesterday on two different nandroids of two different ROMs. could it be that I copied the backups to my computer and then put them back when I wanted to restore, or what causes the mismatch?

I'm too lazy to have a go at adb (also I don't need the restore anymore), so I just want to know how to prevent this in the future. I didn't change anything, just a direct copy. can it just be that something happened during the transfer, to both backups?
[Droid Incredible General] tdo700:
i tired that and it didnt work.

i did just "cd" by itself and it says "cd: HOME not set". does that have anything to do with it?
[Droid Incredible General] s197:
On macs I think the command is ./adb shell
[Droid Incredible General] SLOflatlander:
adb shell in mac is really kinda sketchy if your following the directions people give. unless your experienced in that sorta thing, i wouldnt recommend doing it. cause alot of the commands are different, you cant simply add ./ at the beginning of every command, for some sad reason it doesnt seem to work that way. at least for me that is. but yes, ./adb shell will get you in on a mac, other commands may just fail
[Droid Incredible General] s197:
You just need to add the "./" to an adb command. All other commands are exactly the same. Never had any problems running adb via mac.
[Droid Incredible General] crutoi:
thank you so much for the fix :), spent the last week trying out all the roms out there and when i decided to go back to my fav rom got the error, ran the command specified and everything worked like a charm, still wondering what might have caused it, because i never renamed the backup folders.... my guess is its just some random data corruption...

any way, thanks again :)

UPDATE: actually it gets stuck on the white screen :(, guess i have to go to a different rom...
[Droid Incredible General] novagol:
when i follow the guide in the first post, everything goes okay untill it gets to the last step, then i get the error:

i'm running win 7 x64, do i need to put the md5sum.exe (downloaded a random version i found googlin) into a specific folder? i tried putting it into all of the android-sdk directories and still no luck... any help greatly appreciated

THANK YOU!!!
[Droid Incredible General] jh787:
Hijust fixed this prob on my device. All you have to do is goin to your SD card andopen folder "clockworkmod" now you should have a folder called "backup" in this folder you should have a folder (dosen't matter what its called, preferably the name of youy back up) and within that folder should be the following: boot.img, system.img, cache.img, data.img, recovery.img and nandroid.md5. Thats it! is you have more folders that you have to go through to get to the .img files than thats the problem. make sure it is as above.... all the best!
[Droid Incredible General] therealworldleader:
hi, just did this inside my HTC-wildfire's terminal app, instead using adb shell.

works fine, too,

[Droid Incredible General] remy2501:
only had this happen once.. due to renaming the folder to something memorable... got the error. then renamed back to original date and it worked.. this seems different tho..

edit... after looking around for any new stuff happening on the forums i seen that new recovery update. i'm guessing the issue stemmed from this.. disregard my original input..
[Droid Incredible General] Haws:
md5 from windows

When making nandroid.md5 in windows, be sure to make hashes in lowercase and use linux newlines (only 0x0A instead of windows 0x0D0A). Newline should be also on the end of last content line.

line structure:

hash(two_spaces)filename.img(linux_newline)

line example:

2f44ab41dc02a7e8c3836ff57c690278 recovery.img

PS: i have bricked my streak second time two hours ago and did not have nandroid.mp5 for backups (coz nandroid backup did crash at firstboot.img and did not make hashes at all), but now it's running again using StreakMod_recovery.0.3.2.6-beta and custom made hashes :-)
[Droid Incredible General] da305kratos:
I did it, seemed to work...rebooted and it got stuck on the HTC screen for my CDMA Hero.... :/ ended up flashing ASOP again and redoing everything...

it was at the HTC screen for several minutes without doing anything or showing the bootscreen...should I have waited more there?
[Droid Incredible General] ProFragger:
Thanks for this great discussion guys.

But any idea why this might have happened to me? I did NOT rename my backup anything different from what Clockworkmod names them and I did NOT find ANY spaces in the folder name of the backup.

All other files also seem to be at the right level of the directory level. So, any idea how I can fix this? I would love to restore one of my backups that I lost this way :(.

Additionally, how can we prevent this from ever happening in the future? Especially in my case, where I did not rename anything, and no spaces are to be found?

Thanks for your help guys, you guys are awesome :D!
[Droid Incredible General] da305kratos:
Same here, never changed a thing in regards to this :/

anyone else with a CDMA Hero can tell me if it worked for you and if the process when rebooting was long? please read my post 2 above this one...
[Droid Incredible General] ihtfp69:
My original post has nothing to do with renaming folders or spaces. It can happen regardless and there are a multitude of reasons why. The worst case is it's a corrupt backup.
[Droid Incredible General] GodStrongArms:
Thx for this topic man, i solved my md5 mismatch problem with its help and now my phone is fully restored ! ;)
[Droid Incredible General] hongkongtom:
same here, but mine is a slightly different case, I've bought myself a new sd card changing from 16gb class4 --> 16gb class6, different brands, the total spaces available seem to be different too, don't know why, I didn't rename any folder and just copy anything to my new sd and suddenly the md5 mismatch occurs, I then did a full wipe and the trick here, now restoring, see how it goes

anyway, could someone tell me when I have this issue?:confused:
[Droid Incredible General] hugerth:
Thanks man, it works also in xRecovery for Xperia line ;)
[Droid Incredible General] pjcons:
SPACES!!!

Thanks mate, that worked a treat!!
[Droid Incredible General] SimDroid:
Thanks for this guide. I Had the same problem "MD5 mismatch" on my Legend. Got the restore to work thanks to you now:)
[Droid Incredible General] kentt1:
Thank you kindly.

This fix was perfect. Apparently my .md5 were never created in the first place. Strange.

edit: Dell Streak using ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.1
[Droid Incredible General] sitlet:
From the OP:

What happens if I did rename the folders? I had setup and backed up different roms, so I could flash them when needed and not have to restore everything. I copied every folder from the clockwork folder to my computer, then renamed them with the name of the rom so I would know which one is which. I did NOT change the date/time stamp that clockwork creates, only added the rom name after that. Even after removing the name, leaving only the date/time stamp, I still get the md5 error in clockwork. Will this method work for me? I dont want to try it, then mess up my backups.
[Droid Incredible General] arizcheeze:
thank you so very much....
[Droid Incredible General] ihtfp69:
As long as you don't use spaces in the folder names, it should work. Just put the backup back first and then create the md5 file.
[Droid Incredible General] khov07:
Worked like a charm, thanks a bunch OP. Had a recent backup generate this md5 mismatch error, you saved me a lot of work.

For noobs:

ADB commands are entered via an ADB shell.

1. Download the Android SDK here, and the Java SE Development Kit here. Install Java kit FIRST, then Android SDK.

2. Ensure you have the Android USB drivers installed, which you should if you have already rooted and performed a nandroid backup, whether you used Amon RA or ClockworkMod Recovery.

3. On your device, enable USB debugging and when you plugin your phone to your PC, make sure you select 'Charge Only'.

4. In the Android SDK, you will have to select and download the latest SDK Platform-tools, and you can safely ignore the other software packages for the purposes of this issue.

5. Once you've done that, open a command prompt, browse over to the directory where you installed the Android SDK, and in the current version, you will have to browse to the \Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools folder. Once you are there, type in 'adb shell' without quotes.

6. You can now enter adb commands. You are entering commands as root if your cursor is a pound sign '#'. If it isn't, type in 'su' without quotes, which requests superuser access. Your phone's screen will prompt you to allow or deny root access to the command shell. Allow it, and you are good to go.

***This is all from memory, so if I've missed something, feel free to correct.
[Droid Incredible General] khov07:
Not sure if it was already provided by the OP, but here's a thread with more info on ADB commands and other goodies, read up noobs.
[Droid Incredible General] Calundle:
My backup has no nandroid.md5 and doing the command doesn't fix it. What to do?

EDIT: Got it, thanks a ton!
[Droid Incredible General] htcjikelly:
Ok I'm too noob to get the adb shell thing to work. All I get is a list of commands. This is rediculous.
[Droid Incredible General] htcjikelly:

Well I have to figure out how to root my phone again first, but it worked other than that.
