[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
I think it has to do with my android_winusb.inf. Can someone open their android_winusb.inf and copy/paste it here? I have this string in mine:

; Dell Mini5

%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_413C&PID_B007

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_413C&PID_B007&MI_01

I am guessing there should be a %SingleBootLoaderInterface% string in there also that would allow the bootloader driver to show up when i try to manually select the drivers.
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Looks like you have not got the drivers installed download the dell suite from dell look around the forum their is a way to tell u how to find the drivers on ur PC. If u cannot do it or no one has posted how to do it when I am at the PC later I will tell u
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Yes the dell pc suite is installed. I installed the one that was on my streaks internal card and I also tried one from dells site. I also followed the guide to manually install the drivers but shipping will the boot loader driver wont show up. Ive tried pointing windows to the dell programs folder to look for the driver as well.
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Can someone who has fastboot working please paste the text inside their android_winusb.inf so I can get the correct codes.for the streak?
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I could never get mine to work in fast boot either. I was not able to send commands through fast boot. It took me days to figure out how to get my Streak running 2.2 but I did and without FB.

Now I am having constant problems with my Streak rebooting and was advised to go back to 1.6 and start all over :(
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Well no luck so far and nobody has posted what I believe will solve my problem. I just had to exchange my streak because of a dead pixel. I would like to get this working hopefully someone can help.
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Another solution if you still cant find the drivers Go to device manager Right click Android 1.0 Select Update Driver Software Select Browse my computer.... Select Let me pick Select All Hardware Scroll down to Google INC Select Bootloader and you should be good to go:)
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
I did that already. Doesnt show the bootloader driver. That is the problem. Only shows the composite adb driver.
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
When I tried searching, Google never showed anywhere and that was after waiting for a few minutes for it to appear.

It was/is so frustrating! The instructions are easy to follow but when a pc doesn't give the optioons listed in the instructions, its irritating. I would still like to be able to do it the way everyone one does but I cannot get it to work that way.
[Streak 5 General] bigdaddy4u:
ok here is what worked for me..... Make sure you have the dell software installed - Then go to fastboot on the streak wait 10 seconds plug it in - don't worry about installing the drivers when the popup stuff comes up - go to device manager - there should be that caution crap next to the android device - right click on it to update the driver - chose pick from list - you will see android something and android phone (click on android phone) something will popup saying it ain't right blah blah blah - push continue and ok and let it install - look at your phone it should be in fastboot mode and Flash till your heart's Happy :-)
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Ok everyone keeps telling me to do what I have already tried. Can someone go to their C:\Program Files\Dell\PC Suite\Drv folder and open the file android_winusb.inf in notepad and paste it here for me? Someone who has a working fastboot.

And for anyone suggesting to manually install the drivers I have already done that and there is no option for bootloader driver, just composite adb driver and interface adb driver which when I use either one do not work for fastboot. When I type fastboot devices it doesnt show my streak and if i type fastboot reboot it just says waiting for device so those 2 drivers will not work. Either the pc suite doesnt have the fastboot drivers or something is wrong with my android_winusb.inf
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Curious if you and I are having identical problems... My Streak does show fastboot_mode on its white screen but when I try to run commands from my pc- it doesn't work (i.e. waiting for device, etc.) Also I get those two same driver options as you. At this very minute, I am connected in debug mode and under my device manger I have "ADB Interface>Android Composite ADB Interface"

Is this what your pc shows?
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
"And for anyone suggesting to manually install the drivers I have already done that and there is no option for bootloader driver, just composite adb driver and interface adb driver which when I use either one do not work for fastboot.

Either the pc suite doesnt have the fastboot drivers or something is wrong with my android_winusb.inf"

The only files I have in that folder are .dll files. I have no .inf files.
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Yes it is. And its not the correct driver. You need adb bootloader driver.

If someone cant post the android_winusb.inf can someone put their dell into fastboot mode then go to device manager in windows and find the android phone device, right click and select properties. Then to go details and tell me what it says under device id. That will help me a bunch and I may be able to get it working. If so I will post how for anyone having this issue.
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Are you sure you didnt go into the i386 folder? the inf file is located one folder up. I have .dll's in my C:\Program Files\Dell\PC Suite\Drv\i386 but if you go back to the parent folder Drv then you should see a .inf file. Its ok though because if you are having the same problem I am your .inf wont help. I need it from someone who has fastboot working.
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I'm just like you! I cannot find the bootloader driver. Surely it can't be just the two of us with this stupid issue?
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I have no .inf files in the DRV folder. The only folder in that is i386 otherwise, the DRV folder is empty. Obviously I'm not going to be of any help to you but at least I know I am not alone and am not crazy- thats the part that helps :)
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Well I dont know why its empty, but I have a .inf in my folder. its for basically telling your computer which streak drivers you have available and in the file it only lists adb composite driver with the id for the driver. All I need is for someone to post the device id of the bootloader driver so i can try adding it. Or if someone can post the drivers here.
[Streak 5 General] arya_s:
I beleive i have the same priblem, there is no way i can install android fastboot, ive tried the pc suite, manual random drivers from the internet and nothing, so annoying:(

Arya
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
Ok I got it working after a few things. Dont know what did it, but I used usbdeview to remove all dell streak drivers, then installed pdanet and let pda net install drivers. Then put my device into fastboot and selected adb interface driver instead of composite adb driver in device manager and then it worked. I was able to run superboot and root my streak. One strange thing is that my home and menu buttons at the bottom of my streak keep flashing. I will have to look around the forum to see why it does that.
[Streak 5 General] arya_s:
To be honest im givin up, apparantly the froyo 2.2 is comin very soon and its been a long time weve all been waitin so might aswell wait a little longer,, but ill give the other software a try anyways, thnx

Arya
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I deleted Dell PC Suite and all drivers via USBDeview as advised. Installed PDAnet and all is fine. As for rooting. I had the flashing lights when I upgraded to 2.1 so I un-rooted and installed Universal Androot from the Market. You will have to do it twice but it DOES work and has no flashing LEDs.

Thank you for helping me with my problem. Hopefully I have helped with yours.
[Streak 5 General] bigdaddy4u:
Have you installed the Dell PC software? I believe the drivers are installed when you install the software.....
[Streak 5 General] Laaf2005:
No problem. I am relieved to finally be moving on from this issue. I have had a few galaxy s phones (vibrant and captivate) and have not had as much problems rooting/upgrading. Everything can be done through just adb. This is the first time I have had to mess with fastboot. I have upgraded to 2.1 already as well. I will use androot instead per your suggestion. I figured the problem was with superboot since it started just after I did it.

My Captivate became the brick by failure of the recovery.

The screen remains black.

The power button and volume buttons no response.

In Japan, I cannot repair it.

I am not a member of AT&T.

Please teach it if know the shop repairing other than AT&T.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
step one. get odin3 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=818439

step two install drivers if you dont already have the drivers on your computer, there are manual driver install tutorials online, google it

3. extract files and start odin.exe

4. put .pit file in the slot labled pit

5. put .tar file in the pda slot

6. plug usb data cable into computer, not into phone yet.

7. pull battery and put it back in,

8. hold volume up and volume down, insert data cable into phone and continue to hold the volume up+down buttons for at least 5 seconds. it should be in download mode. normally you have a yellow sign with a robot holding a shovel but i once had a black screen and odin still saw the device

odin will light up a box showing you are connected and the text should also indicate you are connected.

if not you may need to take other measures for download mode see here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829492&page=3

9. once you are in download and odin sees the phone hit start to flash the phone.

if the flash is not successful try to use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989&highlight=odin+click+stock+rom+jf6 instead, master clear if at all possible
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vv.jp:
It is not a download mode.

Odin3 many times I used to change the ROM, all of which succeeded.

This time, ClockWorkMod Recovery in ROM from microSD installed, black screen freezes when it reboot.

From then on, things that can both download mode button.

Also, USB does not respond to the command prompt can also ADB.

Thank you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
try building the adapter in the thread i posted, supposedly it forces download mode. also it is posible to be in download mode with a screen that is black, it happened to me once, try to flash it anyway.

you might need to take a trip to akihabara to build the jig but it's worth it i think.

also if the phone starts to a black screen then master clear it with odin one-click on that screen.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darron2k3:

Hard bricked my phone. wont even turn on now
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] startngate:
Maybe not. I thought I was there too.

Keep trying the battery pull method. It took several times before it finally worked for me.

Here's one version:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9024244&postcount=7

but you can try other button combinations (like just volume up, or just volume down).

If you don't see anything on your screen, that doesn't mean it hasn't worked. Sometimes the graphic for download mode gets screwed up so the screen will still be black, but ODIN will still recognize the phone.

If you really are hard bricked, then you need jtag service. MobileTechVideos can do it for you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Make/buy a Jig (forces the phone in to Download mode) if that doesn't work then like startngate said you will need a Jtag to fix it.

thanks for the reply i took it into a samsung certified repair tech here in the city he has a jtag machine. odin wouldnt recognize my device at all
[myTouch 4G General] bijanian:
I finally got the mytouch today and i wasnt sure sure what to expext. But now i know.... this baby is a BEAST. Fastest phone i have ever used. The processor blows away the competition, by far! Internet wise, the 4G yeilds 6.5 mbps up 1.4 down. Also this the first Android phone that has smooth multitouch. Not choppy, and no lag. Also dont let pictures of this phone fool you, it is sleek and sexy. I got the black one. I definitely recommend it if you need a new phone or are thinking about getting one. What do you guys think?
[myTouch 4G General] Bateluer:
I checked it out in the T-Mobile store this evening. Seemed nice, but the UI really ircked me. It felt laggy and bloated, often lagging between the app drawer and menus. The device has nice hardware, to be sure, but it'll need perma-root to really shine.

I'm trying to decide whether I want to buy a G2 or MT4G, depends which gets full root first, I think. Or if the N2 rumors turn out to be true.

I can confirm the HSPA+ speeds are pretty snappy though. In Phoenix, the '4G' network is live, and I got similar speeds to what you got in the TMO store.
[myTouch 4G General] Blackman778g:
I might have to get one of these to accompany my G2... I like what I am seeing so far

[myTouch 4G General] blasian shadows:
LLOL i was thinking the same thing.
[myTouch 4G General] ekinnee:
If you try the phone at the store, remember that people have been screwing the demo phones up. The one at the store was so full of junk that it crawled.

The one I bought has been flawless. Even with Sense, and I came from an N1!
[myTouch 4G General] Bateluer:
I noticed this as well, and it irritated me, so I went through and started uninstalling crap. :P

Wish I'd installed LP to test it out, but didn't think of it until I got home.

Torn on the G2 to MT4G. Had my Droid 1 for a year now and I'm itching for something better.
[myTouch 4G General] Lockeskidney:
Im loving these speeds

oh yea and Sprint. i know a place you can take your battery drain and 4G fee
[myTouch 4G General] ekinnee:
I always do factory resets on them. :D

I've had a G2, wasn't impressed with the weight, hinge or keyboard. Basically it was a fat N1 that felt a bit speedier. In comparison, this MT4G is great, super fast, the HTC keyboard is better than stock and the screen is accurate.

All total I've had a Sprint Hero, EVO, G2, Vibrant, and N1. This MT4G is tops by far.
[myTouch 4G General] Bateluer:
The MT4G I played with seemed to only have Swype as a virtual keyboard option, which I didn't care for. On my Droid 1, I use the HTC-IME keyboard for those few times I use the on screen keyboard.

You've obviously had more Android phones than me. :P I'm looking to buy a new phone for myself for Christmas, should have plenty of options, but I don't see Verizon offering me what I want.

Edit - Seems to be plenty of AOSP builds for the MT3G, a good sign once permanent root is achieved.
[myTouch 4G General] ekinnee:
Press and hold on an text input box and select "Touch Input" instead of Swype.
[myTouch 4G General] lghorn:
This is definitely T-Mob's best production to date by far. After release of the G2 with the bulk of the physical kb & funky hinge I'm so happy to see a great, sleek, sexy, beast of an Andriod phone on T-Mob.

Bravo to T-Mob & HTC!
[myTouch 4G General] clivo360:
coming from the vibrant, i love the quickness of the phone along with how sharp it displays text.

S-amoled is great and all, but its pentile arrangement of pixels renders jaggy-looking text.
[myTouch 4G General] Noyabronok:
I like everything about it except for the following:

1. Genius button. Wish it was software mappable. They shouldn't force us to use it. Just give me a regular search button and then make it an option of what it does when you hold down on it.

2. Speaker starts crackling on loud setting.

3. Wish it wasn't locked down so we could get easy root and swap roms. That goes for all the new phones, really.
[myTouch 4G General] Lockeskidney:
unfortunately i think this will be the case from now on. The days of fully rootable phones i think are over (at least from HTC)

[myTouch 4G General] WilliamStern:
I don't think the rooting of phones is over. We have some very smart devs that are working hard to figure this out. I just think it'll take longer than normal to pull it off?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick_capri:
Folks,

Need some help on this one. I have an unlocked HTC HD2 (T-mobile branded) with me which i bought in US. The unlocking part works because if i put in a SIM of a different operator it works.

These are the details for it.

OS version 5.2.23138

Manila version 2.5.20183025.0

ROM version 20.Sep.2010 WWE

ROM date 04/28/10

Radio version 2.10.50.26

Protocol version 15.39.50.07U

When i press the left key and power key this is what i see in there

PB81120 HX-B3

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

D 2 Energy

Here are the issues with the phone :-

1. It seems there was android as well on this phone with the SDHC but the SDHC is not there anymore and hence cant boot ANDROID Over it which is not the problem. The problem is the crackling noise when an incoming call is made or received. ( robotic voice issue?)

2. The phone hangs on a lot of applications.

3. Normally when you press the power button full boot-up should happen but in this case the boot up happens after i press the power button and then i hit enter power button again and then i see the ROM version, ENERGY and protocol version in Red on the left hand side bottom corner of the phone only.

Sorry i am not aware at all of how to upgrade/ flash this phone. I mean i need to run HSPL/ HSPL2/ RUU is something i am not aware of. I have downloaded radio 2.15.50.14 but not sure i should be running it. Please let me know the steps of how to go ahead with the phone, run HSPL first? then RUU or run HSPL2?

Cheers!

Mav.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sukru:
You already have the HSPL on the phone (the SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE line tells this).

I'd suggest starting with the Energy ROM thread to learn how to flash a new ROM:

HTC HD2 help requiredArrow

Thanks Sukru...Since i got this unlocked piece..and i am not interested in playing more with it...can i flash the latest ROM (T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1) and then get going or will it make unusable since the unlock would go away? The reason why i say that because i see the annoying issue of pressing the power button twice after i see the NRG logo to see the details on the left hand side of the phone.

Sorry to ask these dumb questions but i have moved from iOS to WINDOWS/ DROID and i am learning here..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sukru:
The latest TMOUS version was "T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_3.14.531.1". However it has a different radio version, which uses more power - better signal, less battery life.

I'm new to HD2 - I came from Touch Pro2. HD2 apparently has issues with ROM incompatibilities, and flashing a wrong ROM version might permanently "brick" your phone. Thus unfortunately I cannot make any recommendations on going back to the stock ROM.

But there is a FAQ on the TMOUS version:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=808015

They basically say it would work as long as you flash a correct T-Mobile US ROM.

Sukru...thanks..i removed the HSPL using the method in the link that you have below by doing it from the SD card ( formatted using FAT32, renaming it to LEOIMG.nbh etc) and it went smooth but the phone gets stuck at stick together screen...it would sometime boot up and i even went ahead and stopped SENSE since on the forum somewhere i read it might be causing issues..

These are the versions now i have on the phone :-

2.13.90963 8G

2.10.50.26

15.39.50.07U

i used the original rom from t-mobile website...the phone boots up sometimes..but hangs a lot and if it to were to re-boot it takes 3-4 tries to bring it up again..occasionally if i receive a call then i can get the same robotic sound and the phone freezes again...

something else that i need to check in here and move to another higher rom than this which is 3.14?

thanks for ur help!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maverick_capri:
thanks sam..i did upgrade the rom to 3.14 after downloading from HTC website..

it didnt go through in the first instance and popped an error saying bad image..deleted it from the PC...downloaded again..and upgraded...upgrade went through but now i see stick together with long vibrations..i havent put the SD card in at all ( BTW the card too was class 2)....

any pointers because now its not powering up at all..atleast previously it would power up sometimes and i never saw these long vibrations...

cheers!

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
ahh sorry, not sure what else to suggest, other than try it from sd card, though it sounds like a genuine fault.

If it was bought third party, HTC will probably uphold the warranty, if you ask nicely.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sukru:
I did not know HTC would honor the warranty for 3rd party sales, but it should be worth giving a shot.

Since you do no longer have HSPL -- and do not mention ever having that -- it should be easier. Tell them the truth, but not all of it, i.e.: you were upgrading to the latest TMO ROM.

Otherwise there is an application called Task 29, however it requires HSPL. I used that when I had problems with my previous HTC phone (Touch Pro2). It basically is a ROM, which does some kind of cleaning/format to the internal memory. After you boot it, it gets stuck, and then install another ROM normally.

Wish I had more experience with this phone, as I said it only have been ~10 days.
