I have a rooted desire, i can flash custom rom, radio, themes etc, my desire is S-Off too but im still a noob android user about afvanced matters (for example i didn't ever use SDK/ADB).

Is this application intended to be used instead of prompt/terminal commands + SDK when phone is connected in fastboot mode?

I don't think to use it now, but i want only to learn something more.
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
This is a quote from the op:

It's basically a GUI over most fastboot commands.

So to answer your question in short, YES :0)
[Desire Android Development] wowcoolman:
i keep getting a failure to connect... any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
Thanks for fast answer.

So don't need to install SDK on my PC to use this tool?
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
Make sure that you have the right drivers for fastboot mode installed....

As long the "check connection" in the Misc tab gives no devices, then you still have driver problems... or simple, that you are not in fastboot/RUU mode!
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
No need for SDK... the OP has been updated with this info.
[Desire Android Development] wowcoolman:
yea im in fastboot haha it says fastboot usb and i am s-off and the drivier i have is the from the SDK. still dont know why i cant connect
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
Well, try it from a command prompt.

Type:

fastboot devices

If it returns a device nr, then you should be able to connect to the tool...

If it returns nothing, then the same conclusion as before :0|

To fix the drivers, connect in fastboot mode.

Then find the device in Device Manager.

Choose to delete the drivers...

Disconnect and reconnect the device to force windows to reinstall the drivers.
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
I wanna try this tool to flash the new clockworkmod recovery and i have a little question (i know i'm a pain in the neck......be patient please)

So, after creating a folder named IMGFiles in the app folder, i have to put into the IMGFiles folder the .img file.

The .img file i dowloaded is named recovery.img. Do i need to rename it as recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-bravo.img before flashing it?

edit: no way to launch LinuxRun.sh (even from terminal) on Ubuntu, flashed new recovery succesfully with windowsXP (in few seconds); answer by myself, no need to rename the file.

Thanks for this simple and easy to use application!
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
What error msg do you get from linux?
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
Awesome utility, used it today for the first time, made my life a hack of alot easier!
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
no error message, nothing happens, but my impression is that a window opens up and immediatly get closed; maybe i need to install some app to recognise the file.

I'm not expert at using Linux at all (but i prefere to use it when i can)
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
You have install Java before you can run this tool....
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
I was sure i had java installed, i will check

btw i used successfully your tool with windows

Ok, it starts now (need to install some drivers for linux?)
[Desire Android Development] konn4312:
very nice tool indeed.used it to flash clockword recovery,very easy and fast!Bravo!
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
All is bundled with the tool... just make sure that linux set's the usb connection correct!

See more in SDK documentation..

Which drivers must be used?

Hi.

I installed HTC drivers I found on the internet (and that work with unrevoked).

When I plug the phone Windows detects "Android Bootloader Interface", and fastboot displays "FASTBOOT USB".

However, "fastboot devices" returns nothing.

Which drivers must be used? Do I have to install the SDK to get this working?

I tried removing the device from the device manager, reinstalling the drivers, but still no luck.

Any ideas?

Regards,
[Desire Android Development] follettoverde:
Windows + HTC drivers installed (HTC Sync), rebooted phone in fastboot, connected to PC and run Fastboot Commander and it worked fine here (flashed clockworkmod recovery in few seconds)
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
I did the same as above....

I actually do not owe a desire... it was just my big brothers whom i fixed the recovery for!!

But look at this page:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

Here is the drivers, so no need to download the sdk just for it :0)

http://rapidshare.com/files/431644974/Usb-Drivers-Android.rar

I also included the HTC drivers (win7).

Updated the OP to reflect this :0)
[Desire Android Development] EViollet:
OK. I installed HTC Sync and it worked like a charm...

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] fishke:
Do I need S-off for flashing a new recovery with this program?
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
Please read the OP (the first page)
[Desire Android Development] diego4t:
i use linux mint, so this may help others!

whenever i ran the script for linux it wouldnt recognise my phone!

so i (somehow) figured this!

After you have unzipped the folder you downloaded, right click on it and select "open in terminal"

the type su (for root access) and put in your password.

then copy and paste this;

#!/bin/sh

JAVAPATH=`which 'java'`

JARPATH=`pwd`

$JAVAPATH -jar $JARPATH/FastbootCommanderV.1.0.jar

and press enter!

then a pop up box will come up, click ok and your ready to roll! Also remember you need java installed!

hope this helps someone,

maybe add to the OP?
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
You just have to setup the device to work without su permission...

Check the link in OP on how to setup the device in linux :0)

The only thing you are doing is running the script in su mode!!!

this is a real newbie question , i have s-offed and would now like to put this on my desire, bravo_alphaspl-oxygen.img. but im having problems using the command prompt to do it as it keeps saying path not recognised . will this piece of kit help me out with this or not
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
The sole purpose of this app is to help you out flashing your images in an easy way...

So.. YES!
[Desire Android Development] expl0de:
Im using it from the beggining and no issues so far :) maybe you should add some more features like flashing roms and partitiomong the sd card.

replacement splash

Hello everyone, someone tell me if you can replace this program with the splash of a liquid acer?? Thanks in advance.
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
Yo,, thanks for the support :0)

The other features you are referring to must include adb commands. I'm trying to limit the use only for fastboot commands...

But maybe it's an idea for an other tool :0)
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
You can flash custom flash image with tool - YES

Just make sure that the image has a compatible size and format.
[Desire Android Development] peppesgd:
in linux ubuntu 10.10 when i launch linux.sh

the program start , but not read the phone...

any solution?
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
Try it as root to make sure you have access to the usb port. Check out the official android development homepage for info about how you can make linux recognise the devise without root permissions.

Good luck.
[Desire Android Development] expl0de:
When you choose to erase system, data, boot etc., does it format these partitions or just delete the info?
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
I believe that it just deletes the info on the partition, but what do you mean by "format"?

[Desire Android Development] dionisius1:
sorry for noob question, is it normally run that fast (about 3seconds) to flash hboot table?

sorry i haven't flashed hboot table from adb before :)

thank you

by the way, GREAT JOB! Really helps
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
A normal spl/hboot table is about 512 kb or something... so yeah, a couple of second is about right.

Radio is about 11 mb, system about 125 mb.... so much longer for system flash.
[Desire Android Development] askrulous:
What a brilliant tool! I'm useless at this sort of thing and you've made the process so simple its amazing. Flashed radio and recovery as per your instructions, now off to find rom - this is the tricky bit for me!

'Reboot into recovery and flash a rom for the 32B board... find one in the development section.' .......straight forward for a genius like you, not so easy for a noob like me
[Desire Android Development] MikeFlyCX:
Everything worked perfectly - but radio still the same

I used your tool and everything worked great and the tool reported success. However, after rebooting my Inspire it says I still have the old radio. I'm trying to flash 26.09.04.11M2 to replace 26.08.03.07M. Have attached a screen shot for reference.

What am I doing wrong?

PS I also have used the "google method" with the same result and I have tried renaming the file PD98IMG.zip and flashing it. For both of these the procedures reported that they worked but the same old radio is still there.
[Desire Android Development] grimezyd:
PD98IMG.Zip is not a radio as far as I know so that might be the problem
[Desire Android Development] MikeFlyCX:
There is a method for flashing radios described in the Desire HD radio thread that involves renaming a radio zip file to the PD98IMG and flashing that way. It does work but as I mentioned apparently not for what I am trying to do here.
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Does PD98IMG.Zip have a .img file inside probably "radio.img" cos this only flashes hboot, recovery, and radio files in that format
[Desire Android Development] isaruku:
Great job

Thank you for the great tool. It's really helpful
[Desire Android Development] gifton1:
Hi all,

Thanks for making this tool mumi - looks great.

I was having a few problems with connecting in fastboot...

I have an s-off desire and am trying to flash the cm7 hboot from alpharev.

I have HTC sync and HTC drivers installed. I also have the unrevoked HBOOT usb driver installed.

When I go into fastboot and plug in my USB, my screen says 'Fastboot USB' however when I run Fastboot Commander, I get the message:

"PRINT OF DEVICE INFO FAILURE - PLEASE CHECK YOUR CONNECTION."

Then if I try the Check Connection button on the Misc tab, I get the message:

"No fastboot device connected"

I am sure that this is something to do with drivers but I am really not sure what!! I have tried reinstalling both HTC drivers and HBOOT drivers, however this has not helped.

If anyone has any ideas, it would be greatly appreciated

Cheers
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
Did you check the cable?

Can you access via adb?

Can you mount a sdcard from the system via the usb?

It could be hardware(the usb pins), software(drivers or the OS you are running) or cable(some cables just sucks or do not have data-connection - only power recharge) related...

Work with one issue at the time ruling it out as you proceed.

Good luck
[Desire Android Development] nyunyu:
I too have this problem.

I can access via adb like running logcat command. But when tried to flash radio it just stuck at waiting for devices (either by command or using GUI)

I can mount sdcard.

I'm using Insertcoing GB CM7 Nightly
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
adb and fastboot drivers are different... You need to check your fastboot drivers
[Desire Android Development] gifton1:
Thanks a lot for your reply mumilover - I will work through those suggestions and let you know how I get on!

Why are both version 1 and version 1.1 included in the zip?

Why does it say version 1 in the titlebar when I open version 1.1?
[Desire Android Development] mumilover:
As stated in the OP (look below) i have included both version 1 and 1.1 in the same file to make it easier for people to chose.

And i did not bother to start a revision-history :0)

For the second remark, that's something i forgot to change... my bad.

You can see the difference between the two by checking that version 1.1 does have a "Kernel" tab where the old version does not have that option.

It's a very small thing and i'm not gona make any changes...

A new version is also coming soon... i just need to finish my exams :0)

Hi. Trying to fix a desire in splashscreen boot loop.

The phones S-on, I can boot into Hboot but it has no recovery, no adb commands as I cant select USB debugging.

I cant install a recovery using cmd fastboot as the phones s-on.

It was just suggested to me by another member that someone had S-off'd his phone with Fastboot Commander. Could anyone in the know tell me if thats possible. I read in the other thread it needs to be s-off but thought I'd ask anyhoo.

Its a smart looking tool, have saved this thread in case of future fastboot action.

Hey everyone!

My problem with random shut-downs on the captivate became unbearable, and I kept searching through threads for a solution, and I finally found this:

http://uk.androlib.com/android.application.org-bluesteel-cka-qxnim.aspx

This app doesn't let your CPU completely turn off when on standby.

I used it for a whole day and no shut-downs.

Usually, I'd get at LEAST 3 shutdowns a day.

I hope this helped you all.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
What have you done to be getting random shutdowns? I've flashed multiple roms and used modded framework files and still I never get a random shutdown.
[Captivate General] spartan062984:
Not bad. Wouldn't you want to have the convenience of NOT worrying about random shut downs (with or without) the app tho? I guess its just me, but those things would really irk me. lol
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
It's just pure luck. Some phones will randomly shutdown regardless what ROM you use. Some don't.

The only true solution so far is get a warranty replacement, or maybe couple replacements (the refurbs you get back may still suffer the same problem). Samsung itself has no clue what's the cause of it yet last time I checked.
[Captivate General] Jack45:
CKA is a possible solution for one of the anomalies that causes shutdowns. For additional information, use the forum's "Search" function and look for "Captivate Keep Alive."
[Captivate General] netnerd:
i just starting to get shutdown once a day started 4 days ago. i trying to uninstall 1 app at a time to see what happen. just uninstall dolphin browser v4.0.
[Captivate General] NeoXerO:
Really? Well, this worked for me, and I had it pretty bad with those random shutdowns (even happened to me on stock 2.1 before flashing).

I think some people might be getting random shutdowns due to certain apps.
