Is there a thank you button or rep on this forum, because you just saved me from the same problem. I give you a BIG HEARTY THANKS!!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heero884:
This is the easy solution, worked for me. No need to make things more complicated by extracting the rom.zip.

As bcnice said just run the RUU and when your phone is showing the HTC logo and you get the USB error just rerun the RUU.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noperation:
Here's what i did for the USB Connection Error.

After RUU rebooted to bootloader (the black HTC screen) i unpluged the phone from PC and quit RUU from task manager. I plugged the phone again and started RUU all over.

RUU recognized the phone and installed the update normally! I tried this on a wildfire. It should be similar.

Whenever I take a picture it comes out rotated, its really annoying and I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem and if anyone knows how to fix it :-(
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
Can you expand on your problem please? Which way are you holding your phone? Which way is the picture rotated?
[XPERIA X10 General] mark28:
I take pics in Potrait mode and its rotated to the right. it doesn't seem to happen when I take pics in landscape mode.

Most of the threads about rooting, backups, flashing roms and the like are in the development forum.

If you're having any issues or want to browse through, go to that forum and scroll through the first few pages of threads.

The first couple "sticky" threads have a lot of useful info in them.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mwatson:
Hi, i used to flash WM ROMs ages ago but have forgotten the whole precedure.

I've searched the forums but cannot understand one thing re SPLs.

I'm hoping to get a Magic A6161 this week. Do I heed to flash a specific SPL before I can start flashing ROMs or is the SPL cooked into the ROM I'm flashing?

Sorry to be a dumb ass, but I can't find the answer ton this anywhere?

Thanks,

Mark
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tbrummell:
The ROM's require you to have a specific SPL *before* you flash the ROM. So if it says "NR", which means New Radio, then you would need 1.76.2010 and radio 6.35.xx.xx, as well as "OR" which is Old Radio, 1.33.2010 with radio 3.22.xx.xx. I hope that helps you some what...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mwatson:
Thanks for your reply. Is the SPL built into the ROM or does it need to be loaded before hand?

If before how would I know which SPL I'd need if I have a Magic A6161?

Thanks again
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
If I'm not mistaken the A6161 is NOT an HTC device thus the SPL will not likely work.

reference: http://www.ubergizmo.com/15/archives/2010/02/cool_a6161_clones_htc_magic.html
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tbrummell:
Heh! Good catch Binary. Never thought of it being a knock-off, I figured it was just a marketing model number change.

You're probably SOL mwatson, unless it has HTC hardware as the underlying equipment.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mwatson:
The Rogers magic is also called an A6161

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1566170-Rogers-HTC-G2-A6161-Magic-Unlocked-Review

Is this correct? If so I should be ok shouldn't I? I put the serial number into HTC's support area and it allowed me to download the latest ROM.

Any thoughts?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
Boot up into bootloader and give us the current SPL so we can know for sure.
[HD2 General] NickPDX:
So I am trying to walk my sister through updating her radio and rom. I was trying to figure out the easiest and safest way for her to it all and this is what I have come up with.

If I get her to do a HSPL3 successfully. Then I have her run the official T-Mobile update from T-Mobile website. Then update once again with a custom rom like from Energy.

Doing this in this order will result in her having a phone with HSPL3, newest official radio, and a more stable custom rom? correct?

I was most concerned with her accidentally updating the radio improperly and I figured that if she used the official rom update it would update the radio all in one step safely? From what I have read this won't mess up her HSPL3.

Thanks for any input.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
yea thats all correct, , if slightly long winded. :)
[HD2 General] NickPDX:
Thanks for the confirmation. Sorry about the wordiness of it all ... just wanted to make sure not to miss anything. :-)

Thanks again!
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
hehe, i meant the process being long winded (with teh extra rom flash instead of just flashign radio, but i understand why)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FQuist:
I dug too greedily and too deep, and now I'm afraid my phone is bricked. Any help would mean the world to me!

Summarized: phone will only boot into bootloader, and not further. Installing images does not work because of a "not allow" error message.

Current device situation

Works: boot into bootloader with camera/power, boot into standard google recovery with home/power

Does not work: Boot to full OS. Powering the phone just starts the bootloader. Fastboot/ADB

Device info:

Dutch T-Mobile G1, 1.5 years old.

Bootloader screen:

DREA110 PVT 32B

HBOOT-0.95.0000

CPLD-5

RADIO-1.22.12.29

Sep 2 2008

Serial0

Installed ROM

No clue! See below.

What I did before the brick

I had a fully working, rooted, installation of OpenEclair 1.2.0.1. SPL (forgot, by this time, which one), newest radio, Cyanogen's recovery, and all that.

OpenEclair started refusing to boot after batteries had been drained once. Needing phone immediately, I hastily installed dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip from my SD.

Noticed that phone was not rooted anymore. Fatal mistake.

Wanted to re-root. So, followed (to the letter) all steps under "Downgrade" on Cyanogen's Cyanogenmod full update guide for the g1/dream firmware. I.e. tried to install RC7 via DREAIMG.nbh (rightly spelled)

Rebooted.

What then happened

G1 finished installing RC7, then I rebooted. On subsequent boots, it would directly go to the bootloader and not the OS. I think somehow the install corrupted.

What I've tried since the brick

Searching forums: Could not find situations similar to mine with any answers.

ADB/Fastboot: I've tried both of these. For ADB, it seems you need to be able to get into full Android mode, so that's a no. Fastboot does not seem to be enabled on this bootloader (no mention of it to be found, logically, since it's a stock bootloader). In windows, USB device is not recognized, throws an error and allows no installation of drivers.

Nandroid: Useless without working ADB/fastboot? I do have several backups of old working installs.

Images: Tried if re-downloaded RC7 or RC29 worked. No dice. Gives 0028022 "not allow"

Installing dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip using the recovery mode. Gives no signature/verification filed errors.

Goldcard: Have no winphone, or access to one. Terminal emulator method does not work without working Android OS...

I'm at a loss what to try anymore. Help much appreciated!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezterry:
Sigh .. your mistake was flashing an nbh in the firstplace..

The ota image is for the android dev phone and had root access over adb.. there are even guides as to how to reinstall a custom recovery from the ota.

Also its most likely that you had danger or another fastboot enabled spl that could have been used to get yourself out of any firmware issue.

However now you have a half installed stock T-Mobile system.. and will need to reflash a nbh.

This will either require a goldcard (see if you can get your Linux PC to read the sd cards cid, or find someone in your area to make one for you)

Or a Dutch T-Mobile rru/nbh not sure I've heard of such a thing in the wild.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poopcow:
Howdy, couldnt find this in search so.. Got a bit of a problem here

My phones power button has been dying over the last month or so... Most times when i would press it nothing would happen.. id have to press it many times or harder to get it on.

Finally it came to me having to remove the backplate and pressing down on the button from the inside to get it to work.

Now it just plain stopped working.. the only way to get it on was to plug it in to usb or tell someone to call me.

Unfortunateley now I accidentley let it die so now i cant even power it on, so im curious if theres some way to power it on via usb?

phone is not rooted... time to call HTC up.

You can try removing and reinstalling the battery very quickly. Sometimes, if you do it fast enough, it will spontaneously power up. Good luck.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] klokwyze:
I'm already HARDSPL'd and have already flashed with one ROM. Want to try out or 2 more.... I got the 'shav3d-991.nbh' from a link from from these forums. It didn't come with the usual 4 or 5 other files....:confused:
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Tribulattifather:
Just place this nbh file in the same folder as the ROM you have now and delete the other ROM after that. Then run the utility.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] klokwyze:
I placed it in the folder I HARDSPL'd with, but it gave me a connection error. I'll try it out if my current choice, JustHomeAlpha, doesn't work out. It seems like exactly what I was looking for though. You guys are awesome. =P
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Tribulattifather:
Make sure that when you are flashing through ROM Update Utility that you are higher than 75% battery.

Also, you can flash at the TRI-Colored Screen - Holding camera button in while pressing the soft reset button in with your stylus. Keep holding in the camera button until you get to a screen that is multi-colored - Then you can run the ROMUpdateUtility too.

Does anyone know of any apps that will let you view IE only sights on the android EVO?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nikol4s:
Most websites that require you to use IE require it due to requiring activex, which is a clusterf??k of a security hole so not many other browsers can or choose to support it.

[HTC Aria General] josh84:
G1 boot animations work flawlessly on the Aria with no editing required. I just tested one out. Just FYI in case anyone is interested.

You can find a lot of them here.

You need to have root to be able to do this.

Just download the one you like, place it on the root of your sd card, and use terminal to type in the following command.

su

cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /data/local

then reboot.

Thanks to Six6Sicks for his awesome boot animations and easy to follow instructions.
[HTC Aria General] zeyoner:
Didn't think to try boot animation from g1. Which the phone I used before the Aria. Can't wait to get home.

[General Questions and Answers] AzuraDragon:
I've been crawling forums looking for several ways to partition my SD, but to no avail.

Recently upgraded from damagecontrol 2.08 to 2.09. Bought a new 8gb micro SD.

I'd like to partition the SD card so that Apps2SD runs, and I remember the first time I rooted my phone and loaded a rom, there was an option in recovery to partition the SD card. Now, my phone boots into clockworkmod recovery v1.8.1.4, and the list of commands doesn't include a card partition option.

How can I get this option back?

I resorted to using adb and trying to work around this problem through the command line, but all of those attempts failed. "parted not found" etc.

I'm at my wit's end and my school work is suffering! (I'm crazy if my phone is not working perfectly) PLZ help this girl stay in med school!

[General Questions and Answers] AzuraDragon:
Actually I found that post after the fact that I set my hero back to factory settings in desperation.

What I did with my rooted and fully functioning hero was...

back up apps

changed SD cards

set to factory settings via an option of the clockwork recovery

updated my rom to damagecontrol 2.09

found that apps2sd wouldn't work

tried to get back SU capabilities unsuccessfully

tried to mimic my first root and flash attempt unsucessfully with flashrec

Now I'm stuck with a slowed down hero which can't allow Su and won't do apps2SD

I'm at the point of insanity with this thing

any sugestions?

Hey guys. I noticed a few of you were having some issues with downloading from Megaupload. I thought I would be nice and upload it to another site to provide some more access to everyone. Sometimes if there are a lot of people downloading the same file, it bogs it down. Also, if you don't have a premium account, then you can only download one at a time.
