After one afternoon trying to flash it, nothing works...

Hi all!

My Flytouch is still freezing on the stock Android logo after flash using the SD image v4...

After lots of re-flash, one time I arrived in the lock screen ("slide to unlock") with a very nice new wallpaper but it was frozen. I tried to use a USB mouse but it was not a problem of screen calibration. Since this one time miracle, my Flytouch stays on the Android logo...

I tried:

- All possible resets (wipe, data partition...) in the recovery menu

- I tried 3 different micro-sd cards (2GB, 4GB and 8GB). Now I have three 800mb sd cards:eek:...HP format tool is not willing to work so I can't recover their original size :mad:

- WinHex AND DiskImager to write sdcard.img on the micro-sd. Both work fine...

I really don't understand what is wrong, I followed all the steps and eveything works has the Stragulus video until the stock Android logo...

I don't have the USB cable to flash it, so I need a micro-sd solution :confused:

Please, help me :(

froyo on FT2

mayb its precalibrated but its a bit off. Is there a way to recalibrate it?

My weatherforecast keeps crashing too. Any fix on that prob?

further thumbs up, keep up the very good job!!:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] minvey:
Try updating your u-boot-nand first to 0.6.7 as described in the post by veryjo. I had the same freezing problem but was solved by updating u-boot.

Here's the URL for the steps:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Tugdu77:
Finally, I made my own double USB cable using 2 old cables...and connecting wires with tape. Anyway, it worked perfectly and my Flytouch 2 is alive and running on Froyo :D!!! Nice !!! Than you guys !!!

One more thing: you can recover the original size of your SD-cards in 2 seconds using SD Formatter : http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/

Use the "Option" > "Format Size Adjustment" and then format the card.

Thanks again!

Market

Thanks Stragulus for all of your hard work I was able to install Froyo with no problems at all however I'm having a couple problems with the Android Market 1: only the free apps are displayed 2: When I try to install a app it states downloading and never downloads or installs.

any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Tugdu77:
1) Is the hard-drive a 2.5" (a small one) powered through the USB cable or a 3.5" with an external power supply?

2) Is it FAT32 or NTFS formated?

I think only a hard drive with external power supply could work because the FT2 has not enough battery power to make it turn. And only FAT32 is supported by Android, no ?

Did anyone managed to move apps to sd card on Froyo?

I also cannot install angry birds (and some other apps) : "unknown error -18". I clean all market data, still no change.

New thread, new release (v5)

I created a new thread for the froyo rom so that I can update the first post myself, preventing dead links and incomplete instructions. I'll ask drazix to rename this thread back to a Q&A should he log back in again.

In the new thread, I added a new V5 release which fixes the touchscreen calibration and adds a working youtube + LauncherPro.

The new thread is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=13164184#post13164184
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] radar92:
I have the same issue, It came with a 30??, it had a very light noise. Did the system update and it moved it to 2852. Became a bit worse. Moved it to froyo, it would be mostly quiet(still made light hissing) but as soon as anything affected the sound it would increase. Flashed to 3245 made it much quieter. I retured one just recently that was really bad with the hissing, it hissed in sleep too. Drained the batery quick. My current and last were the 200 chips. I have it muted and all the volumes down.

I popped this one open, with the speackers hanging out of the case they still hissed.

I think both of mine were made about the same time.

I have read of a few people with this issue but I haven't read a solution yet. The 3245 works the best for me so far.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marada2:
I have a x10 mini pro locked to 02 (uk). I mistakenly thought I would be getting 2.1 so I went to update my phone. It took about 30 minutes and all I have is a load of bloatware / unrooted device running 1.6. I then rooted my phone again and gathered I must debrand the phone to update to 2.1. The problem is debrand is not working, as I think Sony patched this in the stuipid update I downloaded. As I can't debrand my phone now, how can I get 2.1? Does anyone have a 2.1 UK Rom that I could use to update? How would I do that? I don't really want to download nordic.

My current build is as follows:

when opening the build.prop file in notepad, it says:

ro.product.name=U20i_1237-8252

Also when flipping the back off the phone and taking the battery out the sticker reads:

SI 1238-0200
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] benjymous:
The list of all the codes can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=826875

UK Generic for X10 mini pro is:

U20i WORLD-1-8 CDF1238-0199	1238-0204 Customized UK/Black

(the bold bit is the firmware code)

So, make a backup of your build.prop, and edit these lines:

ro.semc.version.cust=****-****

ro.product.name=XXXX_****-****

(where the *s are your current code)

to read

ro.semc.version.cust=1238-0199

ro.product.name=U20i_1238-0199

Hopefully that should work...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marada2:
Thanks for your reply. I have make a copy of the build.prop and made the alterations in the code. The problem is how do I replace the build.prop? I tried following the instructions in the debrand tutorial and it said something like access denied - read only file (or somehting like that) I have a rooted phone so can't understand this?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marada2:
It's ok I finally managed to overwrite the build.prop with root explorer. For some reason the command prompt method was not workin.

1. Root the x10 mini

2. Obtain the relevant build.prop file and copy to the sd card using windows or mac os x

3. install root explorer on the phone

4. open root explorer and copy the build.prop file on the sd card

5. Navigate to /system and you will see the existing build.prop file

6. Click paste and it will want to overwrite the current build.prop, click yes or overwrite

Thanks for the build prop info, as I edited my file and everything works! I now have 2.1. Thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Contrarian:
I don't think the 2.1 update for the mini/pro has been released on the UK version yet.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Dan53:
it has, I have it. you need generic UK CDF in the build.prop to get it, see above. If you don't have those numbers, don't expect to get it anytime soon
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] marada2:
I edited the build prop the the codes supplied and it worked perfectly. Just download this version and it should work.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vengeance1990:
you can flash 2.1 on to as its now been released, one of bin4ry's posts shows how. The bootloader is still "locked" however progress has been made and i believe the devs are very close now

Hope this helps
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naveen_reloaded:
yeah ask him to flash 2.1 and use it till bootloader and other drivers are worked out for x10 by dev`s

[Vibrant General] keenerb:
I rooted my Vibrant a week or so ago.

I flashed an update.zip and installed Clockwork Recovery Mod.

I immediately took a nandroid update of the stock, rooted system.

I tried out the AOSPish 1.4 Eclair rom (stock kernel) from the Development section, which works quite well.

My problem is that I cannot restore the nandroid backup I took before flashing teh AOSPish rom. I did a data/cache wipe in Clockwork, restored the nandroid backup, and it hangs at the Vibrant boot logo.

I can restore the AOSPish nandroid backup just fine.
[Vibrant General] demo23019:
I'm pretty sure it wont work...you have to Odin stock JI6 then restore your JI6 nandroid
[Vibrant General] keenerb:
Fair enough. I'm happy with the AOSPish rom anyway, just wanted to see if it could even be done.

This is the latest video of Windows Phone 7 running on the hd2 and this video looks 100% real check it out.

Update: There is a newer video and this shows a lot more proof for you non believers

[YOUTUBE]DXuJlpu3NXU[/YOUTUBE]

Update 2: I added a post for some of you guys wanting one to vote if this is real or not. I added the chance of you to vote for both if you ar undecided so enjoy. Leave a comment after you vote.
[HD2 General] hummy15:
Not impressed
[HD2 General] mattfmartin:
I never knew Cotulla was Chinese. J/K I know he's Russian
[HD2 General] NeoGreendawg:
One thread wasn't enough? You had to spam all the HD2 boards with this even though it has nothing to do with Android development?

The mods on here are going to love you... :p
[HD2 General] anap40:
I don't think there is anything wrong with that, I don't really look at any of the boards except this one so I wouldn't have seen it otherwise.
[HD2 General] apallohadas:
I think it's annoying if it's not true. (See page 3 of the first thread.)
[HD2 General] zat0x:
its just a matter of time. It wouldn't surprise me if the elite XDA devs been working on this for weeks maybe months....
[HD2 General] atticus182:
Well it seems real, but as you can see the bottom part of the HD2 is not visible. Probably they have plugged in a USB cable as soon as the bottom got out of view, and are running it through an emulator on their PC or something. I think it's fake :)
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
did you post this in every section of the forum??

please try and contain your excitement...... :p
[HD2 General] scbrother:
I hope its real, i would run it.
[HD2 General] jagpoag:
It looks legit to me but then again it could be a shell replacement/rom that someone outside of XDAD has created. Either way, it looks to be pretty smooth. I'm still not sure if I like how "simple" everything looks though. M$ is on the right track with the simple UI because more people will be willing to try it out but they maybe should have given an alternative to people that want all the options.....not sure I see Android or even IOS users wanting to use this (hardcore users that is). It is pretty though.....did i just refer to an OS as pretty?lol.....
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
I don't see why you also posted this in the android section. Its not even confirmed. In fact, I hear it still has a 6.5 core.... so its probably just a theme.

I've noticed a lot of people on this forum like to jump to conclusions and only hear what they want to. And then will argue what they believe with no actual facts to back it up. This last paragraph isn't specifically about this thread... its just a general thing I've been seeing a lot in this forum.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
This definitely doesn't belong in the development section. I thought it was bad enough seeing this in the android general section after already seeing it twice in the general section. I hear that this isn't even a real wp7 rom... its basically a theme on top of a 6.5 core. Nobody knows anything for sure yet. He should at least wait til there's some sort of confirmation that its real before posting it in every single section.
[HD2 General] lilelf87:
still prefer the flexibility and able to customize with droid..beats iOS and wm7 hands down...not to mention its smooth as butter

[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
I posted it in so many sections because not everyone looks in all the sections srry if that made any of you mad there's only two now and that's in hd2 general and hd2 rom development again I'm srry if this made anybody made.

And from what I understand this is real there's more pics I'll post them
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
Looks pretty real to me and there's no cord plugged in is that enough proof.
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
Well if this is a theme I would like to no where you get it at since you know so much.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
There have been some wp7 themed roms being made with 6.5 cores. I think its cooked in. I don't know for sure, I've just been following all the news and threads about this video. Most Chinese people who can read that forum this video is from seem to think this is fake. There has been no release or proof that its real. We'll have to wait and see to know for sure... but I wouldn't get your hopes up until there's more proof... or at least the developers who released the video say something about it.
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
Ya but the cooked roms with windows phone 7 themes that go that in depth an I google translated the website and it's pretty legit but I guess well have to just wait.
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
New video check first post to watch Thank hookcard for providing me with the update enjoy.
[HD2 General] aceo07:
Definitely seems interesting. I think a better test would have been if they had the other phone call the HD2 running WP7.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
Well that 2nd video is much more convincing.... hopefully we will see some ports soon. I wonder if they will be able to get the marketplace working? Da_g was saying that would be hard to do because of unique identifiers each wp7 device has to access the cloud functions. Hopefully there's a way around it. And hopefully we will be able to run it from sd with magldr, because I would like to keep winmo and android running on my phone.
[HD2 General] hagba:
If the one in the second video is a disguise,the guy must have done a hell of a job,however the real questtion remains if the WP7 improves anything over Android which makes you want to keep it as your main or permenant operating system.
[HD2 General] mhd88:
Yes, this is real and I is not the final version of windows phone 7 this first version of windows phone 7 :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] adamelphick:

[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
Did anyone here try calling the two numbers from the 2nd video?

I think its in China. 1(362)237-3325 and 1(860)305-1623
[HD2 General] commensal:
Sorry but i don't speak chinese...
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
No have you tried it?
[HD2 General] FlawlesStyle:
I'm sure Microsoft gave them a ring :P

It looks pretty snappy in the second video, aside from the long boot time. Can't wait to have my HD2 present me with a choice to boot into WM6.5, Android, and WP7.
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
Lol probably. I too can't wait to dual boot on the hd2 4 os's this phone was probably the best budget of my life lol. :p:):D;):rolleyes::cool:

For all you UK WP7 and HD2 fans here us a link to the second video on youtube

But well done if it is real and shame on me (for getting excited) if it isn't.

Download

Hey guys, you all talk too much about it. You talk it to death. The one and only question is wher we can download this ROM. So, wher can i find this little, sweet and awesome ROM?
[HD2 General] light_n_roses:
in the second video there clearly is no usb cable attached to the hd2 ..
[HD2 General] papajohn:
Guys,

This is obviously an internal developement build, and it is rather old (at least 6 months before the gold). I'd doubt that anyone will ever want to use it. On the plus side, this build can be the source of all the hardware drivers our leo will definitely be missing. Thus, I place my hopes on Cotulla (especially if they get their hands on this build).
[HD2 General] hagba:
A little dose of reality with the excitment.

this quote is from GSMArena review of WP7 software:

WP7-specific limitations

•No system-wide file manager

•No Bluetooth file transfers

•No USB mass storage mode

•Limited third-party apps availability

•No Flash or Silverlight support in the browser

•Too dependent on Zune software for file management and syncing

•No video calls

•New ringtones available only through the Marketplace

•Music player lacks equalizer presets

•No multitasking

•No copy/paste

•No DivX/XviD video support (automatic transcoding provided by Zune software)

•No sign of free Bing maps Navigation so far

•No internet tethering support

Add to this the rumors that there is no Zune and marketplace support,you just go and figure out what kind of OS we are excited over.
[HD2 General] y3kt:
I would really like to try it out on my HD2. I think that sometime in the near future this will be possible wether this video is true or false.

This is the greatest phone ever, long live HD2!!

Luck
[HD2 General] androidd:
This is a really good point! I agree I want to try it on my HD2 but I find myself feeling that this OS in a lot of ways is very undeveloped and very proprietary like all other MS products.. Some major change has to be made to entice people into buying these devices rather than an Android device that is capable of SOOO much more.
[HD2 General] myself11:
hagba is right. I think a lot of people (including me) regard WP7 as a WM 6.5 with a gorgeous skin and that's not accurate. Let's see what cookers can do...
[HD2 General] gejenn:
I think this is not far away from being developed.but are we ready for this?we just had Android served in our hands and now WM7.

for me its still windows with a new look so ill stick to my WM6.5 & Android on my HD2 for the meantime until everything is perfect and stable on this WM7 ROM.
[HD2 General] apeatan:
very lame if it lack the basic features of OSes today. too much of hype...only hype. no real features to prolong it.:mad:
[HD2 General] edved:
Lemme at it! I'll be the guinea pig!
[HD2 General] gejenn:
I feel you kabayan hehe,imagine no third party apps to download for it.its like having a plain old Nokia phone where all you can do is call and text lmao.
[HD2 General] Heniek_W:
would it run on touch pro 2?
[HD2 General] Frazzy:
Sure it will! I'm running it on my girlfriends HTC hero right now.

[HD2 General] Steke:
Why on the HTC HD2 and not on the Desire Classic.

It would be great to port to the "leaders" of HTC Smartphones

Video looks pretty legit. Even caught a glimpse of the browser for a bit which is exciting. Agree the OS is really limited but running anything that's not supposed to be run on your phone is freaking awesome. Looking forward to RC1!
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
For me I think the htc hd2 was the best decision budget wise I have ever made in my life how many people get to walk around and say my phone can do, run, and look like that. To me it's freaking awesome. Hooray to HTC HD2 owners.
[HD2 General] murattiss:
I think that the interest to run WP7, Android etc. on HD2 is like having an Audi with the option of using engines from BMW or Mercedes.
[HD2 General] jelliottz:
Awesome analogy!
[HD2 General] slo_mo:
Based on the recent news and happening around HD2. I bet they are going to release it all at once. Why? It seems like this has all become a big project for the devs.

Magldr, Android kernel on NAND, Ubuntu, WP7 and possibly Meego. It seems that the devs are waiting for each other so they can release this as one big package.

Hope they release it before December...Exciting time to own an HTC HD2

:D
[HD2 General] Samsunguy:
thats a very good guess hope it happens
[HD2 General] bhast2:
You know what phone would run this great is a LG Fathom as it has the 1Ghz snapdragon processor like the windows 7 phone's do and it has three buttons
