Enter Bootloader mode???

Hi, the big question...

Can you enter the Bootloader mode?

When no power on the phone hold down the volume-down key and the power key as seen in this YOUTUBE Movie.

If you can enter it you can flash any radio from THIS THREAD

Simply plug in your USB cable when in Bootloader mode and you'll see after a few seconds USB on the screen.

If this does work then you're lucky and then we can look for an solution (if you don't find it yourself).

I'll keep my finger crossed for you :o
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] drexful:
Hi. Yes, I can get to the bootloader. This is how I've been flashing the phone since it died. I also used it to do a task29. The phone is CDMA with USCC. The link bigchrizzieboy posted is for gsm radios.. I assume since the phone has been relocked to SPL 0.70, then it will not accept a new radio rom. The problem is that I can't seem to unlock the phone anymore. I originally unlocked the spl with the latest HardSPL v1.10R3.100 version. It fails now that the phone is dead. It enters the rom loading screen, but just sits at 0% until the battery drains (1 hr).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] enanito89:
same with me mines sits at 0% i tried everything and still samething
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] the show stopper:
get your phone replaced under warranty. and don't tell them that you tried to replace radio. or just call your insurance company to get the phone replaced.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jdep1:
u do notice this is gsm section? maybe the radio & ROMs you are flashing are GSM not cdma
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ssconceptz:
I first apologize if this is a repeat question as I'm doing this from tapatalk which has no search function. Wanting to downgrade from Nightlies to stock 2.1 and wanted to know if a zip version of stock 2.1 (.5 ver.) exists or I have to flash with the RUU. I had a nandroid of 2.1 but it is corrupted. Thanks

[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
If you want stock stock, then yes, you must RUU. But if you want a stock rooted rom, I would check this out. Let me know if this helps or if you have any more questions!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ssconceptz:
Thanks ill check it out. Really want stock rooted but nothing more.

Well in that case that rom should be perfect! PM me if you have any questions in the future :D

I reccomend doing an ruu to the newest version (.6) and using androot to get root and superuser permissions and rom manager to download/flash a recovery image. Its my most stable setup i've had yet.
[EVO 4G General] i2ichal2d:
I have searched and wasn't able to find my answer, can someone answer my question? I was wondering when I get my new 32gb sd card how do i setup the card to run on my phone? I am currently rooted running CM6. Do i just copy the files from one card to the new one?
[EVO 4G General] Success100:
that should work fine
[EVO 4G General] nkawal:
First, backup everything from existing card. then format new card thru pc. then install card to phone and reformat on the phone itself and reboot. once that's done, transfer back all your files to new card. all will be good. Android need to format cards thru their OS. when you reboot you'll see folders on your new card that got installed from the format and reboot of OS.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quinhas_35:
hello

I formated the internal sd card (with VOL UP + HOME Buttom + ON) but had a security copy of my contacts (i think it was .vcf file)

there is chance to recover it?

It is very important to me ... Thank you.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
to start with, if you ever used the Android Market before the "accident"

then you should have a fully sync-ed copy of all your contacts

just reinput your gmail account to Android Market, and every will be back again
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weirder:
If that doesn't do it, go to settings, import/export and import the backup
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quinhas_35:
ok thanks your help but i think lost contacts forever :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cicinho:
If you have a vcf contacts file then restore it onto the phone via samsung kies. But if it was on the phone and you have wiped it then its gone. Take a look about your external menory card and see if its there.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmonox:
I've seen this question asked a lot, but haven't seen it answered. Why isn't the tv-out function working on CyanogenMod? Is a fix in the works?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToyTank:
The problem with the TV out is all closed source code owned by HTC. I wouldn't hold my breath for this, we may eventually have support, but not in the near future. You may need to switch to a sense or vanilla desensed rom.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pons:
It's being tracked at the CyanogenMod forums at forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/5969-tvout/ and is in the bug tracker, but listed as a low priority.
[Droid X Android Development] snowboarderxd1:
Ok i want to install a Tweaked Rosie (sense) apk to my Droid X but even thought i push it into the /system/app It wont like let me open it. I have root explorer to see if its even there and Its there. Is there way i can like make it run?

Droid X-Android 2.2 FroYo Rooted Installed with Rom Manager Also has Build edited
[Droid X Android Development] MrDanger:
Rosie.apk will not work on Droid X. Rosie.apk needs and depends on many frameworks and classes in the HTC Framework... so I don't know what types of tweaks were done to it... but for it to work on the X... it had to be MAJOR and I strongly doubt it.
[Droid X Android Development] snowboarderxd1:
any way i could mimic it? because the only Feature i really Want is the Scenes Feature. I already have Launcher Pro plus with the Sense UI themed Dock and invisible icons And have Widget Locker to mock the Sense Lock Screen :P i like the look of sense And i really like the Scenes Feature Is there any Possible Way ?
[Droid X Android Development] drewden123:
not really. sense for the D1 was never even finished so I doubt it'll happen on the X. What's so special about Scenes? You basically have two options...go buy an incredible or theme the X as much as possible to look like sense. I'd go with the latter.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] marsilisa:
Hi everyone,

I'm new in phones with slide-out keyboard. I have HTC TOUCH HD with NRG ROM and it works just fine. I have installed Bulgarian keyboard and everything is OK.

My other phone is HTC TOUCH PRO2 also with NRG ROM. I have a problem with the keyboard. This is a Verizon phone and most of the functional buttons are not where they should be.

Does anyone know how can I fix this?

Also looking for a way to install Cyrillic letters (or phonetics) but on the slide-out keyboard.

Thanks!
[HD2 General] captirwin:
I have a custom ROM on my device and I need to go to T-Mobile for warranty.

Can I install a T-Mobile ROM, T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1.rar, I downloaded from their website, without creating any problems or bricking my phone?

I not asking for any guarantees, just a professional opinion.

Thanks to all for all the great work.:D
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
run hspl3, choose 2.08.0000 this will remove hspl, then flash the rom you mentioned, (just run the .exe, no need for sd card) which will return to stock the rom, radio and spl
[HD2 General] Birdsfan:
I'm not an expert by any stretch but from the research I've done I would surmise you have to A. Change back to SPL 2.8.0000. I just changed my HSPL back to SPL 2.08.0000 based on the answer to my thread and then B. reflash the TMOUS stock ROM. I have read that reflashing the ROM will revert the SPL from 2.8.0000 to 2.10.000 which is where I started. I have seen people state that even after relashing the SPL is still 2.8.0000 so then the next step is flashing from the SD card as instructed in the tutorial on the HardSPL exe file. Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] Birdsfan:
I just installed the stock TMO ROM and my SPL is back to 2.10.0000, just as it came from the factory so I am good to go!! Thank you samsamuel, your instructions were right on!
[HD2 General] captirwin:
Thanks too All

I will charge the phone up tonight and get er done tomorrow.

Just curious, what would happen if I installed the T-Mobile ROM without removing HSPL?

Thank you all for the help.:D
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
your hspl would stay at 2.08.hspl
[HD2 General] captirwin:
Got er Done

I'd like to thank samsamuel and birdsfan for the help and support.

I'm back to original.

THANKS

I was looking at the MSM7600 datasheet today and noticed that there is an external channel for the SDRAM. Has anyone cracked theirs open to see what chip is in there? I'm thinking it might be nice to give this an upgrade since I feel like this phone is severely memory limited.

Thanks,

[Android Software Development] diablo_sv21:
Hey all,

This problem has been killing me for a few days, I've tried searching the web and so far I've come up with not much.

I've got a widget which uses a WebView to load a page from a URL and read the contents of the page. The reason for the WebView is that I need to emulate the browser in order to get the page to display the content, a HttpGet won't get it back (reliably).

None the less, at some point the WebView stops loading new content and appears to keep loading a cached page instead. In the code it appears to have gone to the web to get a new page but what is returned is old data.

Those with the Android 2.2 build get a new button for applications in the settings area which allows them to clear the App Data. Doing this blows away whatever cached data the WebView is using and it starts to work again.

So what I would like to do is programmatically blow this App Data away. Only problem is that I have no idea what data it is. I'm not explicitly make it anywhere in my app, the WebView control appears to be making it itself. Would anyone know what is going on here and how I can avoid it?

I've turned all caching off (in every way), it had no effect.

browser = new WebView(context);
browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
browser.getSettings().setCacheMode(WebSettings.LOAD_NO_CACHE);
browser.setDrawingCacheEnabled(false);
browser.clearCache(true);
browser.addJavascriptInterface(new MyJavaScriptInterface(), "HTMLOUT");
browser.setWebViewClient(new TelstraWebViewClient());
browser.loadUrl(URL);

Cheers
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
should we all pick a specific winmo build and radio and test our android builds on it?

that way we can pinpoint the issues easier.

because as of now theres about a dozen different winmo builds running under android and the whole ****load of issues were having with android gets blamed on different radio and winmo builds.

can we kinda get our sht together( the users not the developers and cooks) and participate a lil more in this? at least by submitting productive reviews of the android build we use.

and having same exact winmo build and radio would im sure help alot in tracking down the problems that we re having.

i mean does it take alot to agree on one winmo build at least untill android is able to boot itsself up without winmo.

because as everyone can see,

even though the cooks claim to have no problems, we still get problems with pretty much everything, happening on random phones, and im assuming part of the reason is using different winmo builds.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] malaeus:
i agree. there are many good winmo builds. and a great number of them run flawlessly with android. however its always a good idea to run what the developer is running. as i have been using the 'standard' energy build with 2.12.50 and have still been encountering strange issues like settings not being present on my phone (froyostone)

id personally like to hear what the developers think is the best winmo base rom.

and have everyone who wishes to run android and participate in bug reporting etc. to switch over to the chosen winmo rom.

would make life easier. +1 to the OP
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] playingeetar247:
I pretty much keep quiet in these forums but think this is a great idea. I'm using radio 2.12.50.02_2 which I've found as best and Elegencia V2.0 Final WWE rom.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] sixdust:
Maybe we can force some sort of format to be used when stating an issue? Region, carrier, WinMo rom and version, settings changed, Android build? Maybe we should vote on a main rom for WinMo ment just for Android, with an active chef, that way we can iron out the bugs.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
a group effort would help alot i think, since we all technically testing the builds we might as well be a bit more organized as HD2 users since it would benefit all of us by speeding up the android development.

i havent been diggin thru this phone long enough to know the whole system, maybe one of the cooks or few cooks can get together and bake an apropriate android winmo rom so we can all use it as a reference.

since most of android users/ testers run android daily without going to windows much i dont think anyone would suffer from running a stripped winmo build.

and once the robot can breathe on its own we can then focus on stability with different winmo builds, if that would be needed at all.

that involves cooks as well, i know you guys are running your own builds and all

but it would be a lil harder for us users to switch winmo builds for every different version of android that is coming out, because theres a new andy build almost every day.

if we could pick one and update it when needed????
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
well i see there are couple roms that are made for android,

i personally been using chunkyrom for all my androids

and seen alot of them beeing used as well.

can someone list the roms so i can make a poll
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ounkeo:
As stated earlier, just follow the setup the developer is using and you minimise any issues.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hazard99:
Personally I think a specific rom will be useful in trouble shooting.

But personally I cant stand most of the winmo rom's I dont use it very often but Incase something isnt working I need a rom that i can switch to and everything works.

I've tried chucky ive tried miri and both didnt work out. Honestly I am more versed in android than I am in winmo. So when I had problems with data connection Id revert back to energy.

So id have to vote for any energy based rom with working tethering!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] B4PJS:
Sorry, I dont think this is ever gonna work. I use my own WM ROM that I cooked myself, it has been stable for the last 6 months and I really cont be bothered faffing around changing the rom as it is exactly how I like it. The hardcore flashers may just about go with this but I actually have to use winmo quite heavily for work.

I have played about with the radio but still prefer the old 2.08 because it works best for me on my carrier where I live, but for someone else a different radio will be better for them. See where I am going with this?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mstrk242:
I don't think it'd be a good idea, personally. One of the things I love about these android builds, and the wm roms, is the available choices. (But I also love tinkering with things, so it could just be a personal preference.)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zole2112:
Same for me, Energy roms are the only winmo rom's that I haven't had issues with so I vote for energy based roms.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
you guys dont understand, nobody is forcing you to stay with one,

all im sayig is to pick one while the android is in development stage, that way we know that the problems are coming from android and not winmo build since we use same build, or how about 3 builds that we can pick and stick to it untill we get android on main memory working, then you can all go back to any winmo build,

if you dont want to participate like i said nobody is forcing you , im simply suggesting this in hopes of speeding up the development since with same build we can actually trace the problems easier than having 30 random problems with different builds that are not even related to android.

so far i ve seen alot of chunky roms and energy roms used with android.

is there another popular roms there so i can list them in the poll
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] corlygunnz:
+1 .... Energy barebone for use andriod as an everyday OS radio 2.12.50
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Bill R:
This could be problematic when you consider that the ROMS being developed on are made for different phones, different version of WinMo, and different carriers. Each variation has the potential to change the quality of the outcome.

How about this instead. The cook develops the A-ROM on whatever W-ROM meets the cooks requirements and releases it. The cooks part is done. People can either use it or wait until a test group tests it against a base W-ROM.

For those who want testing before using an A-ROM, then a stripped down base W-ROM can be developed in minimal variations (device, OS, carrier) for the end users to test against.

This way cooks get what they want, bleeding edge users get what they want and those less willing to chance a balky phone get what they want.

I'm all for standardizing, but trying to limit a cooks options is not the way to go. In fact, it totally defeats the whole purpose of what they are doing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fuzzysig:
some input from developers would be of great help. since they know more about the workings of the systems.

im just assuming that this might help.

if it would great im willing to use a single rom for all my andro builds since i dont ever go back there( like dos)

a good example would be battery life.

im running the new Nexus One Android 2.2 Build FRG33

and today my battery went down by only 1/4th all day in standby,

then another user reports that his battery leaks out like water.
[Epic 4G General] kennethlongshaw:
I need to uninstall swype and reinstall it. Ive tried over writing it with the default apk but its not removing a theme I installed with metamorph. If I can uninstall it, a fresh install should fix it.

I just dont know how to remove it
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I don't know if you want to go to this extreme, but I did. I fudged up the phone real good by removing and installing stuff. I finally got fed up and flashed it back to stock and applied root again. This time I'll keep my fingers out of it. I hated touchwiz in the beginning, but now it's kinda growing on me. I've never had an iphone but the home and drawer remind me of iphone wannabe. It's okay for now.
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
There a tool over at sdx-developers that can remove that when root explorer can't. I forget the name of it. There's also a pay app in the market that I think is called root manager that can successfully remove crap too. I didn't have much luck putting the general swype 1.61 in. It refused to install. That's when I think I just flashed it back to factory image. A full reset/wipe wouldn't fix it either.
[Epic 4G General] dwyw42:
I had to do this a few days ago for similar reasons. This is what I did:

First, you have to open your browser or other app with a text field. Select the text field then long press the text field again and switch the input method to the stock android kb.

Next, you have to make sure /system is mounted as r/w. The early versions of the the rooting scripts did not remount correctly but the newer ones supposedly fix it. I just looked in the initial rooting .bat file (on the PC) for the remount command and used adb to remount /system.

You can test if it's remounted correctly by renaming Swype.apk to Swype.bak with Root Explorer then going up a level and back to /system/app. If it's not mounted correctly it will show as Swype.apk again. If it shows as Swype.bak still, then you just have to copy the original Swype.apk to /system/app and then switch input method back to Swype!
[Epic 4G General] kennethlongshaw:
yea its mounting in r-r, thats def my problem, cant change swype.apk with root explorer

so i need to re-root?
[Epic 4G General] herbthehammer:
I don't know what's causing it but root explorer doesn't seem to work properly on the phone (not sdcard) filesystem in the system app folder. It's stuck in rw mode. People have said different things why but I forgot. I did noobnl's latest flash and it's still not working right. His script is removing the old root and my phone doesn't have that on there. I don't know what to tell ya. Maybe I should look for another root file manager.
[Epic 4G General] dwyw42:
I don't know if re-rooting will fix it or not. You could try. Here's the exact steps I took using adb from the PC:

adb shell
su
ls /system/app/S* (just shows Swype.apk is in fact in /system/app)
mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
mv /system/app/Swype.apk /system/app/Swype.bak
ls /system/app/S* (just to confirm Swype.apk is now Swype.bak)
cp /sdcard/download/Swype.apk /system/app/Swype.apk (or replace first argument with path of the good Swype.apk on your phone)
ls /system/app/S* (just to confirm Swype.apk and Swype.bak are both there)
reboot (reboots the phone, dunno if its really necessary)
[Epic 4G General] kennethlongshaw:
mmmm. That fixed. it. I owe you a beer
