I have just managed to bork my EVO and need help! I was running 2.1 with the OTA update installed and unrEVOked3. I unrooted by using the RUU. Then I rooted again using the 2 step simple root. Everything seemed to have worked fine. I moved the pcimg36.zip to a folder on the sdcard. Sometime after restoring all my applications with Titanium backup, I lost the ability to USB mount my sdcard. Probably restored something I shouldn't have (I restored everything, thought I would be alright since it was the same release). I went into recovery to restore my nandroid backup I took right after I simple rooted. When I go into recovery, I get a picture of an EVO overlaid with a red triangle with an exclamation point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[EVO 4G General] omegasun18:
it sounds like you dont have a custom recovery : \. did you use the step on simple root to install clockwork recovery? if not try running that. you should be able to get to a recovery from the red ! by holding volume up and recovery but it sounds like it may be stock.

in all honesty you are prolly not completely screwed since it boots. through i will say this belongs in the Q&A section. let us know if you tried installing a recovery through simple root and results please

For the first question, try the Diamond forum, here: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=428

For the second question, you mention setup.zip? How are you trying to install myplayer?

You should just be able to transfer the .cab program to the phone (via bluetooth or USB) and install it by opening it on the phone.

I am new to these boot menu.

I was told, clearing Dalvik cache may help clearing up some of the unused cache so I wanted to give it a try.

I was then told the procedure is like this:

1. turn off the phone

2. press vol down and press power once to get into the menu

3. choose recovery using vol down key and press power to choose it

But when I did all these steps, it goes to the N1 boot logo and then a screen with a "!" and an android and stopped. Is this normal?

I was told it is supposed to give me a menu to choose choose "wipe cache partition" then i can reboot your phone again (even though it may be a bit slower).

Anyone nice enough to give me a walkthrough?

Hi guys

Like a idiot ive flashed danger spl without updating the radio and surprise ive got a brick. My phone insurance has told me the g1 has a 2 year warranty and ive got to take it back to tmobile first.

so the questions are,

1 without recovery or fastboot can i fix it at home?

2 if i cant fix it can tmobile tell what ive done to the phone

3 is there anyway i can completly break the phone so it wont even power on so tmobile cant tell what ive done but still replace it under warranty

thanks

If you're good with a soldering iron... cost about $5 for parts you need to make a jtag interface. Read the jtag thread in the dev forum.

CAN? Certainly. WILL? doubtful.

Smashing the thing with a sledge hammer should do it, but I strongly believe that this will actually void your warranty.

I suggest that this is a real bone-headed move on your part and you deserve what you got. Returning the thing now for warranty is FRAUD since this is CLEARLY *your fault*. Flashing the 1.33.2005 SPL is not only POINTLESS, it also can be done SAFELY *even with a non-matching radio installed*. Of course you would have to actually read the instructions to learn what the safe way actually IS. Not that its hard to find... its in this forum's WIKI: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/phpwiki213/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Bootloader (look under "new/safe install instructions").

I've asked this in various forums, since security is the #1 issue for me. I know there are already alot of apps to protect the phones and its contents....BUT is there anything stopping a thief from simply taking out the sdcard and putting it in another phone or reader to view and access the contents of the sdcard?

If you plan on storing personal info on the card, whether it'd be photos/files etc It would be really good to know that even if the sdcard is taken they still cannot access the info.

anything out there as yet? I would've thought this is a pretty common request.

something like trycrypt or storage crypt for the microsd card would be really good.

any help would be much appreciated.

Last night I did a nandroid backup of my DC3.2.3 install, so I could update to 3.5 (as well as installing the WIMAX update, which I hadn't done previously).. Today, I wanted to flash back to it for a minute, so I went back into nandroid to restore it, and when I tried, I got an error "couldn't open directory /sdcard/nandroid/"

So, I booted back into android and checked it out.. No nandroid folder on my sdcard, but the backup is saved in the root of the SDCard.. So I created a folder and moved my backup into that folder.. tried again, and then got an error "couldn't open directory /sdcard/nandroid/recovery.img"

If so, you could try JUVS HTC Enlarge start menu. Again, try searching as I can't remember where I found it ;)

This application?

http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/uitweaker.shtml

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Garrickus:
ui tweaker

Yes, that's the one. Be sure to go through all the menus and make a note of your current colour settings, as once you get started, it's easy to forget what you had before.

Interestingly enough, whilst playing around with this utility, (there are actually 4 combined I think?) I was able to change the background colour on the program and settings page , and the signal bars colour on the task bar from white to cream, even though your not supposed to be able to do that :confused:

Never was able to replicate it though after a hard reset because I FORGOT to take a note of my settings :eek: :rolleyes:

I'm not sure what you mean about the menus, sorry :o

Good luck

OK when I got my phone. I activated it, rooted, installed titanium and did a full apps+system backup. Then removed the apps that I did not want to use. Since 2.2 maybe coming around the corner I tried to restore all apps+system data. This worked except for I cannot restore any of the apps that I made backups of such as all home(blur), desk(blur), cityid, blockbuster, social... stuff, news, help etc.. Titanium has never failed me before with my rooted droid.

Does anyone know how I can either get titanium to restore these, or does anyone have a /system/apps dump that I can put all default apps back in. I am assuming that without these apps I will not get the update.

BTW: did use Titanium wrong for this approach of making a backup?
[Droid X General] jvward:
Hey,

I had the same thing happen to me, I believe its because you probably did not install busybox just like i did not from inside titanium. None the less just go to droidxforums.com there are copys of the system dumps just make sure you get a system dump that matches your firmware version. Then once installed make sure you adjust the permissions on all the apks to match what ever else is inside the system\apps folder.

And B-LAMO! your done!

btw make sure you get the correct verison of the system dump or else its just a big waste of time :)

This is my first time rooting a cellphone, so, before I do it, I want to list what i should do here to make sure my understanding is correct. All I want to do is to have WIFI tethering to work.

1. First, I need to backup the stock firmware, right? I am not sure how to this yet. Any suggestions?

2. I need to download update.zip to root the phone.

3. The easiest thing is to find an app which does Wifi tethering. But the one I found (android-wifi-tether) doesn't support Galaxy S Vibrant yet. Anything else you can suggest? Without that, I think i might need to flush the JP3 firmware. Right?

4. I need to download JP3 firmware (JP3.rooted.insecure.clockworkmod.zip). Is there a better one you can suggest me to download?

5. Then I need to flash the firmware to the phone. I think I might need to use Odin to do that, right?

Thanks. Please give me suggestions.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r3loaded2010:
Firstly, this thread should go in the Vibrant forum - I almost gave you advice for the international Galaxy S before deleting some of it. I can answer some of your questions though:

1. You don't really need to backup your firmware - all rooting does is drop in 3 files for full root access - /system/app/Superuser.apk (controls access to root), /system/xbin/su (actual program that gives root access) and /system/xbin/busybox (complete set of UNIX commands in one program). Deleting these 3 files will unroot your phone.

2. Yes - place this update.zip into the internal SD storage.

4. I'd recommend you currently stick with a 2.1 firmware - the 2.2 firmwares are actually Samsung internal beta builds and are quite buggy and unstable (at least in my experience). I'm a Galaxy S owner so I don't know what the available firmware build exist the Vibrant - check the Vibrant forum for details. I have a feeling that if you flashed a Galaxy S firmware such as the JP3 one you mentioned, it would brick your phone - but I'll let someone more knowledgeable to answer that one.

5. Odin is the only tool you can use to flash firmwares. Make sure you a) reboot after installing Samsung drivers and b) run as admin ;)
