[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dadp2:
SOLVED !! NO BIG DEAL !! Hello ! I need some help ! I have a T-mobile myTouch 3g. I am a newbie to Android (but not to Blackberry,Windows Mobile,IOS and Symbian). I have unlocked carrier(its currently on AT&T), upgraded to Froyo 2.2 and rooted the phone.

I think a factory reset would help this unit regain its bearings but I am concerned about getting the phone reactivated after doing a factory reset. I had some activation issues with an iphone in a similar situation (it actually required an original AT&T sim with iphone data plan to get the job finished !) Since I do not have a T-Mobile sim available, I am being cautious. I have searched and cannot find a thread on point. If I go ahead with a factory reset,should I leave At&T sim in the phone during the reset ? And how do I reactivate the phone after the reset ?

Thanks for your time !!

p.s. to all that have posted the tutorials/how-to's/ and the I shouldn't have done thats ! THANK YOU !

D

if I missed a link or thread please let me know ! Any info would be appreciated!

My People pictures/contacts/information are syncing properly...sort of.

I have it checked to only sync contacts of those I already have in my phone, but people still show up when I'm composing an email or message in the auto-complete? Intended?

Also, in settings for email & accounts the Facebook one always says, "Attention required". But everything still seems to be quite up to date?

Thanks!

Hi there!

I got some questions about Froyo Android on HD2:

1. When i get a sms, the screen of my device won't turn on. I only hear a sound but the light won't turn on.

2. My led notification (little light above my screen) keeps flashing, even without a new notification. How to turn it off?

(when i disable all led notifications in the settings menu, it isnt fixed)

3. Is there a fix for the laggy menu? (it is a little bit laggy, not that much, but annoying:P)

4. I can't install angry birds of the market? How to fix it?

Thank you!!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Reno_79:
Sounds like you're using a very old build? You don't state which one so very hard to tell but I would ensure that you've got an up to date build installed as all of these issues have been mentioned a LOT on here and have been addressed in later builds with updated kernels.

When you're on internet explorer and click the search button it sends you to Google search why? How can I change it to search with bing? Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 General] DaJanni:
Mobile Providers can do it.. yet don't know how.

On my Mozart it does the annoying T-mobile search, even with an unlocked phone. I don't understand the reason. The boot logo is t-mobile, too. It has no branding on package, hardware or providers. Just the Software thing.

so btm I'm also curious to know how to change the IE mobile search... Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
i believe that's the carrier modifications... not sure if it can be overriden at this stage... hopefully MS provides capabilities to set our own defaults... please bring this for the next update...

[Windows Phone 7 General] LJKelley:
T-Mobile or your carrier changed the settings on your phone. I don't know why, you are buying a Microsoft product that has alot of Bing in it regardless. Your only hope is that Microsoft gives people the option to change this in the future or that T-Mobile (or your carrier) comes to their senses and puts Bing back as the default in a carrier pushed update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ckacey:
Even if the only options were a radio button that said "crap the carrier got paid for" and "Bing", would be a nice option, Bing is best on these phones so far, and I like Bing and google near equally
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
ya ya, this should have been first. but we all wanted to play. but anyway here it is now.

this is the stock rom post OTA. added root (su and superuser.apk) as well as modified ramdisk (ro.secure=0) and busybox. Also zip aligned apps to optimize ram usage. there is odex (stock) and de-odex versions.

*i no longer see the reason for needing the pre-OTA rom. if you have a reason post up and we'll see what happens...

if you are upgrading from previous version of THIS rom you should not have to wipe, however you will still need to redo any system changes you have made, i.e. trackpad wake or notification lights.

Stock OTA kernel is now INCLUDED in rom flash. however if you want to flash an oc/uv/whatever kernel follow that post's instructions after this rom is up and running. i suggest pershoots kernels. been using his since the g1, awesome work. his g2 one has great performance AND battery life.(for me anyway)

These roms are g2 and dz compatible.

Cwm recovery recomended for ease and function.

1. Place stock rom of your choice on root of sdcard.

2. Boot into recovery

3. Do a nandroid backup.

4. Do a full wipe. (if coming from different rom)

5. Select flash zip from sd and select stock rom.

6. Once its finished, reboot and enjoy.

OTA de-odex: http://www.4shared.com/file/vi77pxvT/ota_deodex_v11.html

OTA bootv2 (kernel): http://www.4shared.com/file/y2NVlbJm/ota_boot_v2.html

*(only needed if you flashed a different kernel after the version 1.1 rom and want to go back to stock kernel. includes wifi module.)

theme template: http://www.4shared.com/file/VwINHT_r/theme_template.html

*theme template is for theme dev's only. it should be universal for any rom. just place the themed framework and/or apps in corresponding folders. i have a .txt file in the folders as a place holder, delete it after you add your themed stuff. take a look at the update script to see how it works, and to add or remove anything you need to...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rUsTyRuSs:
Awesome thanks!! Do we have to flash a separate kernel if coming from Sense, and if so, do you have the stock kernel in a flashable .zip? Thank you in advance,

Russ
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Nice work! good to have a base Rom to fall back on but why do we need three Roms for stock? why not just deodex the stock Rom with the OTA applied and be done with it? less work for you, right? I know this is quicker and will help folks who have boot looped/ soft bricked their phones. either way, good job and thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dynamikd:

question 1: yes.

question 2: damn im an idiot and half asleep. its gonna give u same error at end of flashing as others. ignore and take boot img from zip and flash with fastboot. "fastboot flash boot boot.img"

ill have to update later on to updater-script. i have to get up for work in 1hr 45min!!!!!

Yes, just flash Coolbho3000s OCed kernel.

we dont need 3, but this is what i had to work with right now. i did odex cause thats true stock, and de-odex as a base for theamers. after patching the ota in ill update this post, not gonna make a new one.

NOOOOO! nothing will work! the odex file is part of the apk. de-odex'ing act joins them...

edit: wait if u mean just the ones that you are compleatly removing, yes, just dont go removing all the odex files, lol

HELP PLS!!

I have a G2 which is S-off'd

Loaded the HTC Sense ROM on it yesterday but it kept messing up my SMSs (any SMS app incl. stock would freeze when sending SMSs)

Wanted to come back to the stock ROM and found this post

Flashed the ROM but now am stuck in the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" booting loop (i.e. phone won't progress past that splash screen)

Can someone pls help me in figuring out how to get out of this mess

I used to have Open Recovery but that's gone now. Have to rely on the stock recovery

I am not a pro at ADB etc so would appreciate step-by-step instructions pls

Thanks a million!! Appreciate it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tommyxd:
i think u can download the stock rom, rename it to PC10IMG.ZIP, and reboot into hboot, but iono, i cant get anything right this morning
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
Did you try booting? Ignore error, till i can get home from work and fix it. I usually do it in differeent order though. Full wipe, flash rom, get error, ignore. Reboot into fastboot and flash boot.img OR flash one of the aosp flashable kernel zip.

You need to wipe when going from rom to rom. Get cwm recovery and follow my instructions above.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tommyxd:
lmao, i think i did that, just in reverse order. Don't worry man, I think you need to get some rest when you get home. Thanks for the quick response btw :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] adp21:
Thanks for the quick reply

I have already wiped via stock recovery - both data/ settings and cache

I can't boot into the phone (ie the part where u have the home screen etc). Keep getting stuck at the htc quietly brilliant screen. Phone will keep looping here

Can I still install clockwork recoverY (cwm)? If yes, how? If no, what can I do to get my phone back to normal

I'm goin' crazy here lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arcadia310:
I need clearer instructions. What do I rename this file to? When I go into hboot how do I load said file up?

I renamed it pc10img.zip, didn't work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] adp21:
Also I tried to flash boot.img from fast boot but no cigar. Am I trying to flash from the wrong place?

Should I be naming the file something else? I think I left the name as is and/ or may have tried to flash by calling it PC10IMG
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tommyxd:
Thanks buddy, got it figured out, iono why but I was using "fastboot flash..." instead of "fastboot boot..." all good now. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arcadia310:
J

Wait so it worked for you? What did you rename the file to and how did you load it in recovery?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dynamikd:
That's exactly what I mean. If I want to remove shopper and finance, do I remove the apk file along with the odex file? Or just one instead of the other?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dynamikd:
Thank you. I am going to do that right now. I will back up both files to my desktop just because, but I will be glad to get rid of ALL the google bloatware that I do not utilize.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Arcadia310:
Can someone please post clear instructions on how to get this working. What do you rename the file to?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] eViL D::
Seems that's normal for update-scripts. Saw a tweet by Koush saying we need to use updater-scripts to get boot.img's to flash properly now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Hey, can we get the OTA deodexed soon? the OTA update notifications are driving me nuts, lol!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] g1junky:
lol i agree
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Also, wifi is completely bonked....I assume its because all the OC kernels contain a weird .ko file for the wifi calling. The ota should clear it up...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
sorry works been crazy. haven't had a chance to mess with this. do this.

go into /system/etc/security and rename otacerts.zip to otacerts.bak

then go into /cache and delete the update.zip in there. this will stop that till i have a chance to update these.

sorry guys, ill get to it asap.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Thanks man! Any idea why wifi isnt working? Is it because of the OCed kernel I flashed afterwards?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
yes that is why. if you take the bcm4329.ko that should be included somewhere on the post of whatever kernel you used and push it to /system/lib/modules that should fix wifi.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] janus zeal:
What's odex mean? lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Hmmm... I did that already... weird, that it doesn't work... I check turn on WiFi and it just says error. I'll figure it out. I just wanted to be sure it was working for other people.

I figured it out... yea! lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
It's a type of file accompanied by a system file. for example, let's say you see calendar.apk. it will also have a calendar.odex file to match it. the process of deodexing a Rom is actually combining them into one file like the two calendar files will be combined into one file, calendar.apk. it slims down the Rom and allows it to be themed easily. make sense?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidtoy09:
How does de-odexing affect unrooting (bringing the phone back to stock S-on stage) process?

I'm sorry for high jacking this thread but i think it may help others too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
No, of course not! Deodexing only affects roms not your hardboot/spl... the only thing that can do that is flashing an entire build like tmobiles version or something like. Regular roms only contain system files, in laymans terms. When you flash spl/hardboot, if the version is older than current, things can brick if it fails. Seen it happen several times. that's what you're thinking of, I'm sure...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dynamikd:
I had to flash bacon bits 0.3 to fix mine. There were some people who claimed to have just used cool 3000 kernel and it worked for them. What did I do wrong?

Sent from DynamikD's R00t3d & OC G2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
I just wiped again.... Its always the simplest things (not easy but simple). Plus, who knows what else I did... between themes and modifying files. I've gone a bit crazy since root. I'll settle down in a little while, lol!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
I made a better way to stop ota notifications plus this won't drain the battery like renaming the otacerts.zip. Basically, I added all the appropriate info to the /system/build.prop that tricks the checkin service into thinking we have the ota. Pretty neat huh? Okay, I didn't invent this but someone did this for the droid and it helps battery life. I just added the ota prop info to the old prop file. Here it is if anyone wants it. extract build.prop from zip file (this ISN'T an update.zip!) adb push build.prop /system or copy and paste using root file explorer. you could use terminal emu also...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
OTA version up

Please specify which on is Pre OTA and which one is Post OTA. It's a little confusing in the OP. Thanks for your work.

Would one of you be able to tell me exactly what modified ramdisk (ro.secure=0) does?

Thanks... If need be I will move to the Questions post...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ryanmo5:
Runs like a champ good work man, nice to see someone release a stock rom for the community. I'm gonna port over a theme or 2 for this rom will post when their complete. First theme I will port is called detox, search for it in nexus section if you wanna check it out before I release it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] donaliar:
I know this might not be the place..but is there a way to unroot your phone? after flashing this stock rom and stock kernel. I just want to know, just incase i send my phone back to T-mobile. thanks in advance

Edit: and thanks for posting this stock roms!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
No offense, but maybe you should reread the op. The pre ota, is clearly named pre ota. But as of right now the only links up are with the ota patched in.

Little out of the scope of normal meaning and user, but having unsecured kernel can also make the difference in being able to save the semi-bricks that keep popping up. It allows root access to adb adb shell without a fully booting device.

Thanks! I felt the need so people can go back to stock and can avoid the chance of bricking with the pc10 and no need to reroot/s-off. Plus I added a few goodies.

There is. Just make sure you follow the unroot guide to the T. There is more then 1 way to unroot, but if its not done exactly right, you will end up screwed!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
That's very true... I didn't even think about it that way.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xdviper:
Thanks for this. I got tired of switching around and using buggy roms, came back to this the stock with root.

Which kernel works with the touch pad mod?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Sorry but just a little confused, since I am still in tmobiles stock but with root.. and it says these don't come with any kernal, do I apply just the rom?? Just need simple stock that's deodexed and stock kernal.. :) thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
If you are post OTA then it should work fine. However I do suggest you follow my instructions to a T and just use the stock ota kernel I posted. The only change made to it is to allow adb root access always. This is actually done in ramdisk so really there is no changes to the zimage (actual kernel itself).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xdviper:
You didn't update anything in the stock de-odexed rom did you? Thus no change log, and I downloaded the previous one last night and have it installed.

Do you have any idea which kernal works with the touchpad mod?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Thank you , so OTA bootv2 is the stock kernal??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
That is correct.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
We can just change framework png with deodex right??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] clintj:
If I am coming from stock OTA and want to flash the de-odex version. Will I need a full wipe?

Thanks?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
correct, i didnt change anything in the rom, just added the wifi module in the boot flash

not sure. i always wipe, cause i like fresh installs, but i know its a pain sometimes. in theory, since its based off same rom, you shouldnt have to, but on the other side you are going from odex to deodex, sooo...

do this. make a backup in clockwork, then flash without a wipe. if you have any performance issues or fc's, restore your backup or wipe and reflash. report back with your experience. im gonna try the same and see how it goes.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fastludeh22:
I flashed my deodex build right over my odex build, and 6 hours later, not a single fc or slow down. So that answers that. Funny thing, I still suggest a wipe, it can't hurt, I like nice clean installs.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
so why is it that i get the boot failure message?
