[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cartman09:
Heres the situation:

I'd like to use my computer's internet connection. So I plug in my phone and select USB internet pass-through in the popup dialog. The problem is that after about a minute or two it fails, with a popup saying that either I don't have HTC Sync installed or another phone is using it, whereas none of it is true. I do have the very latest of HTC Sync and driver installed.

I am running Vista (Home Premium) and using a USB 3G Modem. The phone is stock HTC Desire Z (EU).

Please bear in mind that I just don't have any other way to connect my phone to the computer or the internet other than the way I am trying. Also I don't want to root the phone. Not yet.

I have tried:

Installing HTC Sync & drivers through "Run as administrator".

While the phone was trying to activate the mode I tried reseting the local area connection (this shows up when you select the mode) - worked for a while, kept disconnecting me every few minutes.

I first activated the internet passthrough (somehow it activated) then connected the usb 3g modem - this worked it didn't disconnect me, but after a restart (the next day) none of the above worked. The phone seemed to be confused because in the wireless & networks it said that "connect to a pc through usb, please" - acted like its not connected at all.

I know that the phone should be ok, because at work (WinXP) it enables in a few seconds - although cannot use internet bec. android does not support proxies.

The passthrough service is running.

I have disabled the firewall.

Any ideas would be very welcome..

1.Right click on the network icon in the task bar

2.Click on Open network connections

3. There would be two local are connections. Find out your HTC mobiles connection.

4.Right Click and select properties.

5. select Internet TCP/IP and click on properties

6. Select Obtain an IP adress automatically

Yeah. So obviously other benchmarks for MicroSDHC cards on other phones won't be suitable due to hardware differences. The speed also can't be based on the cards class either, because again there are hardware differences and card manufacture quality differences. So I'm going to start by posting my card and results with SD Card Speed Tester from the market. I thought it would better to test the card on the phone itself, as that's where we will be using the phone the most.

I have not rooted or altered my Evo software in any way, if it matters.

Hardware revision 003.

Sofware 3.29.651.5

My card is a Kingston 4GB Class 4 MicroSDHC Model SDC4/4GB Amazon

Consistent speeds, but I want faster. Post your card model and results with SD Card Speed Tester app on the Evo 4G.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Plancy:
computer speed might also be a factor.

Try doing this test on difference computers if you can, I can test on 3 computers of varying speeds.

I am talking about the setting that is usually found start>settings>all settings>personal>phone>cdma services>location setting. This is a Touch Pro 2 BTW.

I thought it would be under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting\LocationSetting, but I did some testing and it doesnt seem to save under any of those keys. Here is what I did -

I made note of any reg keys under this branch that looked like they could be the one involved. I changed the setting back and forth from the front end so that it would turn the functionatlity on and off. I made each change tapped ok a couple of times then I rebooted the device. Once it booted up the setting did save in the front end, but the registry keys under that branch never did change their values.

I also did some testing with settings under

HKLM\system\Currentcontrolset\gpsintermediate driver\

and

HKLM\drivers\builtin\gpsdriver\

I changed the value back and forth in the front end but the regsitry keys never did change values. I rebooted in between changes and the front end did retain changes but not key changes were found.

Does anyone know where it is saved at? It seems that Google maps sets this automatically when it installs. I need to see how its done to implement in my software. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
Did nand restore, after this - phone boots, I can unlock the screen but then bunch of apps start force closing... pull the battery, boot - same thing. Any ideas, guys?
[Epic 4G General] coldblooded79:
Yeah. Clockwork doesn't restore kernels. Boot back into clockwork and flash the kernel you had on your backup. Now reboot and bam, there you go!
[Epic 4G General] MysteryEmotionz:
It has nothing to do with the kernel. Nice try tho.

@op what theme where you running in the backup or was there any mods?

OK so I have been having the same problems all night after installing 2.2 and then trying to revert back to 2.1 EE with phoenix. I was finally able to go back to 2.2 and get that to work and then did an Advanced Restore in CWM of just the data only. It's working and has all of my apps and I'm not getting the 5,000 FCs anymore. Maybe that will help, maybe not. Good luck!
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
No mods, nothing.
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
As we dont yet have a custom recovery image for the Desire HD like AmonRA or Clockwork Mod, i have added ADB support to the recovery image that is currently used with perma rooting the DHD, it includes support for ADB Shell, Busybox, and mount commands, has SU shell by default and has RW permissions on all mountable partitions.

Requirements;

perma rooted desire with S-OFF HBoot

correct fastboot binary from HERE and adb drivers

Changelog;

V1: Initial Release

-DOWNLOAD

Clockwork MOD Test

Here is a test version of clockwork mod for the Desire HD, it is flashable and includes ADB Shell support, to activate the power button to choose options, you need to scroll through the menu 3 times until you see the message "menu back button enabled", this is due to the clockwork version being designed for devices with a trackball button.

DOWNLOAD

FLASH THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG

How to flash;

Boot phone into bootloader mode (Hold volume down when powering on, or adb shell reboot bootloader)

run from cmd/terminal "fastboot flash recovery adb_recovery.img"
[Desire HD Android Development] mikecoffee:
raider your a star will flash when wake up!
[Desire HD Android Development] Evostance:
so...your asleep? ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Danifamous:
Fantastic! Will flash this tomorrow after some sleep. Can't wait for the custom roms to come flooding in, especially some AOSP.
[Desire HD Android Development] ghostofcain:
nice. flashed and working as should be!
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
here is a test recovery image for clockwork mod, it is based on the clockwork mod for desire Z/G2, as the Desire HD has no trackball button, if you scroll through the list 3 times until you see the message "menu back button enabled" the power button will become the select button.

THIS VERSION IS ONLY FOR TESTING UNTIL AN OFFICIAL CLOCKWORK MOD IS RELEASED, FLASHING IS NOT RECOMMENDED

http://db.tt/nt4dHN6
[Desire HD Android Development] Doktaphex:
Sweet dude, backing up via clockwork now! so at least it runs. I will probably flash back to your ADB recovery though, it got me out of a little schoolboy error I made earlier.
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
sweet, now time for making roms ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] vibez:
good stuff! Backup and restore worked fine :)
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
then we just need a flash test of a rom ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
I'm working on a ROM based on the G2 Rom for a clean android, flashing update zips works. Just not managed to get it booting yet
[Desire HD Android Development] AndyCr15:
So there's some positive feedback. Is the Clockword Mod version still not recommended?
[Desire HD Android Development] LecterMe:
I just bootet it, and it seems to run well. Just try it without flashing it.
[Desire HD Android Development] bunny0007:
Works fine here :)
[Desire HD Android Development] AndyCr15:
Oh yeah, what's the command for that booting without flashing

Fastboot reboot xxxx.img?
[Desire HD Android Development] Bumble-Bee:
fastboot boot xxx.img :-D

also can this sucsefully flash zImages via the update.script ?
[Desire HD Android Development] AndyCr15:
Thanks, I went ahead and flashed it, works great. Scroll through the menu's 3 times to get the power button to work, as was mentioned above.
[Desire HD Android Development] ratcom:
flashed this recovery today as I was getting twitchy ;) Works fine thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
mmmm

When I hit backup I get this

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkp1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1)

(No file or directory)

Can't mount /sdcard

any ideas?
[Desire HD Android Development] ratcom:
this may sound stupid but you do have full root and s-off with the bootloader?
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
Yep, certainly do

EDIT**

It's certainly been a weird weekend, Problem with clockwork recovery was the sdcard, tried 2 16gb cards and same error, put in the 8gb card that came with the phone and we're on the road again.
[Desire HD Android Development] Doktaphex:
You should not need to type su as you should already have the # command prompt in recovery. I don't know know about Android Commander though.

On a side note, I noticed that in recovery ADB is highly unstable and tends to keep starting the ADB server over and over again, this is not ideal, I had to use it the other day after foolishly not setting the correct permissions after changing my system font, it did eventually work though so I shouldn't complain.
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Working on it, extracting system.img was a pain in the ass!

Swiped from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
hehe loop mount it works pretty easy ;)

but no point in cooking before i have a device ;) but gettign ready hehe
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Wasnt really a heuge issue, just another kick in the teeth from htc lol, deodexing now *yawns*.. Rooted, added busybox & run parts, nano text editor & bash shell support ;)

Will have to get this recovery sorted, im a little concerned as when flashing or wiping using "format" in recovery, surley the partitions will format as fat.. Wonder what made them format the NAND as ext3?

Oh.. Mine is due to be delivered tomorrow ;)

Swiped from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
mine too ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
Formatting data and system works fine with ext3, its the same version of clockwork thats used on the g2 and that has same partition layout with ext3, also the desire HD, g2 and desire z don't use nand, they use eMMC which is a block storage device like an SD card
[Desire HD Android Development] LeeDroid:
Ah, thanks for the feedback, always something new to take onboard with a new HTC range :rolleyes:

Was aware of eMMC, just force of habit ;)

Swiped from my LeeDrOiD loaded HTC Desire using my thumb....
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
so basicly the recovery is good to go?
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
Yea, you just have to scroll through the menu 3 times before u can select anything
[Desire HD Android Development] capychimp:
ok nice, then i will start cooking :) so i can flash the hell out of it tomorrow when getting it ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] Kevlar-Source:

I am VERY glad to see that I will be able to follow your work, given the fact you will develop for HD as well :D :D :D

[Desire HD Android Development] Eclectik:
I have this evening permrooted, S-FF and ran Apache14's cool OC kernel.

Somewhere along the line my wifi has messed up and now just error's, otherwise the handset seems fine.

Would running this back up restore my wifi?
[Desire HD Android Development] Doktaphex:
Have you also installed the correct WiFi module for the OC kernel, it will have been included in the zip and needs to go to /system/lib/modules
[Desire HD Android Development] ratcom:
I also had broken WiFi not matter what file I push to the modules folder, gave up in the end :(

But back on topic I was wondering when Paul is opening the hd kitchen
[Desire HD Android Development] Eclectik:
How did you rectify the problem?

Nevermind, all fixed. Sorry for the thread hijack.
[Desire HD Android Development] arielext:
did a test run (aka non flash) of the recovery and all seems to work great!

Made a backup and the internal storage is treated as sd-ext (as expected) which also means you can easily make a new rom without bloatware by deleting apk's from the backup (right?)

Anyhow, the recovery works quite nice
[Desire HD Android Development] Gig11gs:
I damaged libwebcore.so in system/lib will this be able to help me?

phone wont boot now...
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
download the clockwork test recovery then flash this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=840021
[Desire HD Android Development] :
Hi guys.

Just realised something - when you power off the phone and connect to the AC charger when it is off, it will automatically boot into the recovery after a little while. Just me or do you guys experience that also?!
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
Yep, I noticed that yesterday

Saves me doing it I suppose
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
The scrolling through the menu 3 times b4 you get access to the power/select function, does anyone know if will this be sorted on the released version or are we stuck with it?

Works great but a bit tedius
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
It should be fixed in release version, its only like this in this one because its designed for desire z/g2 so uses the trackball button
[Desire HD Android Development] Epedemic:
Hmm i have s-off eng. hboot and full root.

And i can flash this:

>fastboot flash

recovery adb_recovery.img

sending 'recovery' (6410 KB)... OKAY

writing 'recovery'... OKAY

But when i go into recovery i just get the screen with the red triangle with the ! inside.Not options or anything...

Same if i just do a fastboot boot adb_recovery.img

Any idea to why?
[Desire HD Android Development] :
adb_recovery is like the normal recovery, you get the triangle when you activate. but then you need to access it, with power and vol up.

CW recovery replaces it and "autostarts"

however though, the reboot to recovery when switched-off and on ac power is a rather annoying bug :(
[Desire HD Android Development] Epedemic:
Doh, just like on the Desire... Forgot about that... Thanks ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] combat goofwing:
trying to flash clock work recovery mod via rom manger but the desire hd doesnt appear in there, is there something else i need to do

thanks for any help
[Desire HD Android Development] Epedemic:
Or maybe not... I just get the "Android system recovery" and not the clockworkmod when pressing vol up + power...

Am i being completely retarded here, or is something strange?
[Desire HD Android Development] PiCkLeS:
Actually.. I get the same result?

//P
[Desire HD Android Development] ghostofcain:
there is no OFFICIAL release of CW recovery for the DesireHD at the mo, the one featured here is a temporary hold over and needs downloading, and flashing via fastboot, CWM will then be functional as it will recognise the recovery
[Desire HD Android Development] combat goofwing:
think ill wait until its there for rom manager not that confident at flashing via fast boot
[Desire HD Android Development] :
I was gonna start ranting about you downloading the wrong file, but then realised the OP link is not very well structured :)

if it says "ADB recovery" thats the standard recovery with adb support, regardless of what the "thread" states.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2314079/adb_recovery.img

if it says "clockwork.img" thats the file you want

http://db.tt/nt4dHN6
[Desire HD Android Development] Epedemic:
Ahhh... Much better ;) Thanks for having better eyes/braaaiiiins than me ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] sfjuocekr:
I just had a bright idea of keeping people away from flashing the S-OFF bootloader and still be able to use a custom recovery.

What we can do is flash the recovery after gaining write access trough the kernel module, then clear the recovery partition and write a custom recovery to it.

This custom recovery would have to load the kernel module on boot so it can write to eMMC and thus leaving the S-OFF bootloader out of the picture.

Good idea confirm/deny?
[Desire HD Android Development] Bumble-Bee:
u could always just run the wpthis module and flash the custom recovery insted of the hboot .... that would allow flashing /boot /system from the recovery

. . . . .

would ppl like a guide to do this ?

ALSO

does the koush any kernel flash script work with this recovery ?
[Desire HD Android Development] sfjuocekr:
But would the custom recovery have write access to eMMC? If not it would have to load the module too to gain write access.

I can add a recovery script to my S-OFF guide for flashing recovery, leaving the choice of flashing hboot and/or recovery to the user.
[Desire HD Android Development] kenmasters321:
thanks op - worked 1st time on my desire hd. 1st thing i did was backup ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] erezak:
Raider - you the man. Works great.
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
Seeing as though the G2 CWM came along relatively quickly after the bootloader access was gained, would it be fair to assume that the DHD is a difficult little mofo to get a releasable recovery on the go.

Just curious but many thanks to all who have got us this far.
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
its not that its difficult as proven here with the G2 recovery working on the Desire HD, it just isnt officially supported yet, no idea why but hope it is soon, if i could find a way to enable the power button by default then it would be a perfect release.
[Desire HD Android Development] :
no. but traditionally, CM usually focuses on devices they OWN and that are available in the US. And also, they need to be asked/triggered to port to the DHD.
[Desire HD Android Development] robbyvoid:
Yeah - clockwork.img works very fine on my DHD!

Thanks for this work ! ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] AlRokayan:
URGERT

Can any one please send me the the original recovery image for the HTC Desire HD.

Why?

Because I'm facing problem with my device and I want to put everything back to normal so I can send it for repair.

(BTW, this problem has nothing to do with the rooting and flashing).

[On The Side]

If you want to know the problem...

The problem is: I can't press the 2nd line in the keyboard, it keeps pressing the upper or lower letters!!I tried to re-clabilate the keyboard from: Settings -> Language & Keyboard -> Touch Input -> Text Touch -> Calibration Tool.

Also, I tried to rest the device by choosing "rest to factory" from the recovery mode.

Also, I flashed the Raidroid HD v1.0 ROM!!!

No luck :confused:
[Desire HD Android Development] liljom:
can't you just run an RUU?
[Desire HD Android Development] liljom:
I thought I do something wrong too.

Thanks for the img! :)

[Desire HD Android Development] AlRokayan:
Dose the RUU flash the recovery partition?

Because I thought that it only flash the boot partition
[Desire HD Android Development] RaiderX303:
ruu flashes everything
[Desire HD Android Development] :
RUU flashes everything. bootloader, recovery readio, system etc etc.
[Desire HD Android Development] kuailan:
I have similar problem like yours. And yes, I am rooted and have the S-OFF too. However I find, if you install the ROM manager....and reboot to the recovery from the option, you will be able to backup and mount those SD card just fine.

Dont ask me why?? I dont know too. But I believe it is something to do with write access. Because before you reboot, the superuser will ask you whether you allow access??

[Desire HD Android Development] s0litaire:
Few quick (and probably stupid) questions...

If i flash my DHD with the Clockwork MOD recovery image will that wipe any user data?

If i use a custom ROM will that wipe any user data?

I'm guessing a RUU will wipes the entire device so it's back to factory settings.

Thanks!

I've never done it before and just want to know what I'm getting myself into ^_^
[Desire HD Android Development] RD1945:
Sorry, I can't help you with your last problem. :D (Sorry, I'm trying to be funny)

Answer to your first 2 questions: Yes. User data will be wiped. Most (or likely all) of the time you have to wipe or else strange things might happen.

TIP: try titanium backup to backup your important stuff.
[Desire HD Android Development] mike1986.:
Anyone can confirm if after using "wipe battery status" the battery indicator shows 100% all the time? How can I fix it?

Couple of things,

Wrong device, this is a 14 month old thread for a Test Recovery Image for the Desire HD.

Secondly, your error is not ambiguous, and a few minutes searching would of told you need an ENGineering HBOOT, i.e ENG S-OFF. Not SHIP S-OFF.
