QFT. I did simple root (I still setup adb and ensured it was working first) and then flashed the rooted Stock 1.47 ROM in about 40 min. I think most people that are running into issues with Simpleroot do not have adb setup properly or they did something inadvertently and need to clear out the files/cache and need to start over from scratch.
[EVO 4G Android Development] donatom3:
I did simple root and it worked fine too. I don't think the issue is adb being setup since he has an adb file in his download.
[EVO 4G Android Development] redzee:
Update from a few days ago.

Just got a new SDHC card and simpleroot worked. The SDHC that came with my phone died. I placed a spare in there that was a 2gd regular micro and Hboot would not ready the IMG for nothing.

If simple root is not working then it's the Sh!tty card acting up.

Happy ending for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PEQUES:
I just got my phone yesterday did the ota simpleroot and seems like it worked fine

but now i dont know what to do next

to get custom roms or froyo 2.2 or anything lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] curisu:
Awesome post |OP|.

My desktop is Windows 7 x64 and doesn't play nicely with the standard tools.

I was forced to adapt your root.bat script to an OSX friendly BASH script.

The only requirement is that you download the android SDK from developer.android.com/sdk/index.html (apparently, I'm too new to post links).

The steps I took to get root:

Unzip the android SDK

follow |OP|'s instructions, unzipping the contens of do_root into [sdk-root]/tools/

unzip the attached bash script to the [sdk-root]/tools/

run my bash script from the [sdk-root] folder instead of root.bat - type "./root.sh" without the double-quotes

Grab a copy of Froyo while your phone is being rooted ;)

Wow that would be awesome on the slide!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] kcbboy:
I think if we were to get a froyo and sense rom it would more than likely be the espresso version vs the traditional sense just simply because the traditional sense would have issues with landscape and such.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] TakoLuffer:
Fo-Sho

They need to make a full working hero/legend/froyo-sense rom :] w/og hero icons im using the hero to slide right now i love it but the problem is the rosie/htc sense is transparent which through me off a bit :P if i had more experiance in rom building i would try lol but sadly im not ;[
[myTouch 3G Slide General] dominiiking:
Awesome

this would totally rock I wonder who would step in and build ROMS now that Eugene would most likely be busy with his family and everything. Hopefully this happens and we get FROYO+SENSE that would be awesome .. I cant live without SENSE lol;/..

Are you an idiot, or do you enjoy spamming the DEVELOPMENT section with your bull**** posts? THERE IS A SECTION FOR THIS ****, http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=685, it's called QUESTIONS and answers for a reason :mad:

Read the rules before you create a new thread again.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] stoneyjonez:
Calm your ass down. Asking about whether or not something is being developed/ported in the development section seems logical to me.

Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide
[myTouch 3G Slide General] HebrewToYou:
Stoney, understand where R0man is coming from. It has been mentioned before that Sense UI is proprietary, so including it in any Froyo rom would be dubious at best.

Not only that, what you're asking for is *EXACTLY* what will be offered by T-Mobile in August. The OTA update tentatively scheduled for next month will bring Froyo with Sense to your Slide so there is really no reason to inquire about this.

These questions would best be directed via private message or tweet to a rom developer rather than posted in its own thread on XDA.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Whoareyou:
What I mean is froyo with NORMAL sense not Espresso Sense
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
Can we please stop with the clutter posts in Development. Use another part of the forum for this. kthnxbye
[myTouch 3G Slide General] r0man:
No, it logically belongs in the Question and Answers section. Read your own post, specifically "Asking about..."

What does that imply?

A, wait for it, QUESTION! You know where questions go? Q&A! :rolleyes:

That doesn't change anything, really. Froyo is barely functional on Slide, porting 2.2 from Desire would be extremely difficult and time consuming. If YOU want to do the work and have something to show us, THEN make a thread about it. Don't make a thread asking for a ROM just to suit your needs because no one is going to spend 15+ hours getting every little thing working for 1 or 2 people.

Please, I'm begging you, read the rules before you create a thread again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
I tried to figure out how to setup adb, and in the process tried to reinstall HTCSync2.0.25.

Ever since then (it may be a coincidence though) my phone does nothing but charge when i ahve it plugged into my laptop. I tried different cords, ports and computers and still no notification telling me to mount.

Is there a setting that i touched that may have turned off mounting?

Did i somehow delete the drivers? If so, what do i need to download because clearly HTCSync2.0.25 isnt doing anything for me since i tried removing and reinstalling + rebooting several times.

Any tips?

EDIT: Ive never had any problems before and i cant remember if i had any when i first got the phone or not.. I'm on windows 7
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] canhcutvl:
are you using stock ROM or? does you phone play sound when it connect to the laptop?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
everything is stock htc sense.

no sound is made. its like the phone doesnt exist when i plug it in. it just charges. At first i thought it was my laptop, but then i tried my other computer and it didnt work their either..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] endlesssnowfall:
Have you tried rebooting your phone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
yes, more than once.

Rebooting hte phone with the sd card unmounted (from the phone settings). Rebooting with usb debugging enabled. rebooting with usb debugging disabled. rebooted my laptop. everything
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] adavis159:
bad data pins on the usb port on the phone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
i doubt that. it worked fine 2 days ago.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] endlesssnowfall:
Do you have DoubleTwist installed? I tried it once and it messed up my usb mounting and media scanning.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
nopei havent installed any new apps between the time where it worked, and it didnt.

one day it did, the next it didnt.

Maybe its a driver error? wehn you first plug in a new htc magic, will it see the SD card or will it not do anyhting until your have the proper drivers? because i just reinstalled htc sync for the 10th time and it still doesnt see anyhting
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
Can you mount via recovery?

If yes then it's not hardware, cable or your usb port. Likely rom or app related.

If not then it's hardware, cable or your usb port.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
well i dont know how to mount via usb, but the screen says fastboot usb when i plug it in.

Nothing comes up on the computer..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
What kind of recovery are you using?

Reboot to recovery and mount the sdcard from there.

Plug it into your computer.

Does a removable disk show up?

Try a different sdcard

Try a different usb cable

Try a different computer even!

If all three fail then it's probably your phone (hardware).

Try to mount via recovery (sdcard in the phone, rebooted to recovery and depending on your recovery version... in this example I'll use Clockwork Recovery go to Partitions Menu > mount USB storage.)

If successful then it's rom related.

If fail then hardware (sdcard, phone hardware, computer hardware, usb cable) related

It's not difficult to troubleshoot. We just need to eliminate possible problems to pinpoint whether it's your sdcard, phone, usb cable or computer.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
Thanks forhelping me. I appreciate it.

But I don't know how to mount via bootmenu. Il try a different sd card when I get home.

Also I got the stock recovery. Nothing had ben changed
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
Alright i just put in another sd card and still nothing. would formatting to factory settings help?

But before i do that, is there an app that backs up all my data and then restores it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
Uhhh.... yeah. There are several apps on the Market that will back up your data and restore it. :rolleyes: Mybackup Pro ($$$) and Titanium Backup (Free) are the most popular.

But I would suggest installing a custom recovery first.

Try clockwork (use my signature) by downloading Rom Manager.

As long as you have root, (you do have root right?) then you can easily install a custom recovery.

Honestly though, it sounds like a problem with your computer or cable. If you can access the sdcard from your phone then it doesn't sounds like an issue with the card.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
yea i guess its a problem with my phone then. I just did a factory reset and still nothing. I tried different cords on different computers so its unlikely that they're all broken..

And no i dont ahve root. Thats why i needed to connect, i was trying to root my phone!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
Yup. It sounds like an issue with the usb port on your phone then.

It seems like it's not recognizing the cable when it's plugged in to switch to enable usb mounting.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
but how could this happen so randomly? i had it plugged in and no problems, then when i went to replug it in a minute later nothing happened.

It's not a driver problem?

My computer gave em a popup once saying the device malfunctioned or something
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
It could be a driver, but if you tried a different computer then it's like you said... it's unlikely that all your computers are having the issue.

Just for the hell of it, uninstall the drivers, plug the phone in and try mounting it.

We just need removable storage and that doesn't take any special drivers at all.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zoltrix:
yea thats what i tried yesterday, which still didnt work :(

i'm on hold with HTC now.. i'll see what they say. it's still under warranty :(

I cant believe this randomly happened.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArghSims:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shiftedx:
Alright so basically I'm new to the android scene switched over from iphone a couple months ago :D not regretting that change haha.

Anyway I've been theming my phone off and on I know how to edit the .apks and all of that but basically I'm wondering because I've seen it done before... how would I go about making everything my theme contains a flashable zip?

If anyone can help me out with this I would love to learn because I am looking to get into theming android and maybe later down the road actually deving for it. so any help is greatly appreciated!

Its still very simple and early but I plan on many more much more detailed themes in the future...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tubaking182:
the easiest thing to do is to download a copy of the ROM you are looking to theme, and then copying the images to their respective apk folders(res/drawable within the apk) and then you will have a .zip with your edited images that needs to be signed and then it's ready to go. keep in mind though that if you edit images they may have increased in size and that can cause a boot loop, if you get a boot loop try pngcrush all the images you edited and then wipe and flash again.

also make sure you have a nandroid backup as you will want to flash original ROM then your theme each time to avoid any weird mistakes caused by overlaying update on top of update

P.S. that looks nice, what phone/ROM is that for?

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] M3NYFAC3Z:
Hit the unzip/extract new theme button......find the theme......click the XML file... apply all.......done

Doing a Nandroid backup will take you back to stock incase you dont like it or something messes up....If you don't know what I'm talkin' about i suggest you read up on it before you do anything

I don't know if this will work for any other rom but the ones above

Would it be possible to get the battery morph as a standalone? This would look great with a matte black bar.

Can you make the green on the lock screen white as well?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raadius:
Excuse me if this may come off lackluster, I'm trying to figure out why HTC equipped the Evo with a slower variant of a mp4 which I read is H.263 and other products like the iPhone 4 are a higher (newer?) version which is H.264. I notice that all my videos are saved in the .3gp format which is .mp4 but is H.263 right?

Well, I use to have an HTC HD2 and although there was no setting for 720p, you could record in 640x480 which was VGA, but all my videos would save as a .mp4 and they are H.264 bitrate format. I read on here that HTC was lazy with the Evo 4G on putting H.264 or couldn't acquire the license for it? Than how did they get it for the HD2? Does the fact the HD2 is a Window Mobile device and the Evo is Android have anything to do with it?

Honestly, looking at both of my HD2 videos and my Evo 4G videos, you could slightly tell the difference, even with all my Evo 4G video being shot at 720p and my HD2 at VGA (640x480), the Evo has more noise and pixel breakup, HD2 looks slightly blurry, less sharp, wave effect (when moving the camera).

Just received word that the Sony Ericsson X10i Hong Kong Customised version will receive an update very shortly.

I can't share the source since it's a confidential e-mail from Sony Ericsson.
[XPERIA X10 General] james_lau80:
thanks for the update, getting ready for it
[XPERIA X10 General] WaiShingLee:
You're welcome. I'm dying for the update too.
[XPERIA X10 General] james_lau80:
frustrated while knowing the firmware is available at other countries and all we can do is wait, wait and wait...
[XPERIA X10 General] WaiShingLee:
The previous status of the firmware update was "Testing". Testing what exactly, I have no idea. But I presume that each region has their own customisations that require testing. Maybe something along the lines of Chinese character input support etc.

I think HK is generally slower at getting updates. My previous handset, the Nokia E71, is still using firmware V200 while the rest of the world are on V400.

upgraded to R2BA by accident

but it kept mention that i've already got the latest firmware, then i deleted the "db" folder the the update service folder and executed the SEUS again and re-download and re-install the firmware, and found out that it's actually the R2BA firmware of 149.7MB (compared to 128MB for R1FA)
[XPERIA X10 General] lau407:
Really? as there are many 'fake' news in these days so I hope it's a true one...
[XPERIA X10 General] WaiShingLee:
Really? So you managed to update your firmware successfully? My SEUS is also telling me that it's got the latest software but I am reluctant to press "Install" to download the file again because if it isn't the latest firmware, I'll have to reconfigure my whole phone again. I have had to do it enough times already.
[XPERIA X10 General] james_lau80:
yes i did, bear in mind to delete the "db" folder before executing the SEUS as the folder contains the history of the downloaded firmware in the past
[XPERIA X10 General] WaiShingLee:
Confirmation now that the SEUS is successfully detecting that there is a firmware update available on the Sony Ericsson X10i Hong Kong Customised Version.

Download is 149.4MB in size. Updates handset to R2BA024.

[General Questions and Answers] RevolutionIsMyName:
This seems like a common enough question although I can't seem to find an answer. I rooted my phone a while back and was happily running Cyanogen. For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to unroot my phone and go back to the standard ROM. I reverted back to Cupcake with the instructions at theunlockr dot com (how-to-unroot-your-mytouch-3g) with the intention of then upgrading to Donut.

The unrooting went fine, but the Donut upgrade will not install and the phone hangs at the Android logo. I've tried the upgrade to Donut at least 5 times and it hangs here every time. I've tried a wipe and fix permissions, but the same thing happens.

What can I do to troubleshoot?

Am I stuck with Cupcake forever?

I would like to be able to connect my Evo to my car so that I can listen to Pandora using the car stereo. Unfortunately my car only has an Ipod dock connector.

I have seen something similar being done with a T-Mobile G1.

There's no audio through the Evo USB port. I was searching for the same thing last night. I have a logitech ipod speaker: (can't post links):(

I also have this ipod bluetooth adapter:

What I'm thinking about doing is to hardwire the bluetooth adapter to the inside of the speaker. Then get the 5v from the dock and make a cable or adapter to go to the Evo's mini usb port. It's not the best solution, but I do have all of the parts already. If I didn't, headphones would suffice.:D
[EVO 4G Accessories] speedracerbubba:
find the schematic for the ipod dock and solder a headphone jack to the audio inputs on the connector and you're done. I have done the same thing and it worked just fine for my friend that I did it for.

the thing that sucks about that is you will need an extra cable to charge the phone.

I had the same problem, I think the best solution is to go Bluetooth. This will future proof you for phone changes down the line as well. Long story short, here is the best solution I've found and it works great! Just connect it to your ipod cable and stream over Bluetooth. So far it has worked with everything ipod, iPhone and iPad that I own, especially my custom installed iPhone stereo connector.
