[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RegnierD:
It's cool.

Yes, you'll need it on the root of your SD-card (not in any folders), run it through hboot, and then you'll have to re-run the unrEVOked tool from your PC. I would also suggest running the S-Off tool afterwards, just to be safe. That has saved me once before.

Make sure you have at least 50% battery before you do the hboot flash. VERY IMPORTANT. If your phone dies or loses power while updating the radio files from the RUU, your phone is as good as bricked.

If you get stuck with the unrEVOked tool at waiting for root for more than fifteen minutes, post back here again and we'll continue from there.

EDIT: Actually, run the unrEVOked Forever S-Off tool through CWM recovery before doing this, as a pure precautionary measure.

I'm an idiot apparently

Well, I am really sorry guys, I won't ask any more questions on here. Apparently I am super stupid. I figured it out, I left out some info because it didn't even register as relevant, but it was the key apparently. So I just go a new sd card, and I formated it on my computer, and just dropped the zip files on there, and was trying to flash like that, and apparently the phone didn't like the new sd card, or it needed info off the old one, because once I put it back in and tried flashing from it, it works fine now. Sorry for bothering everyone, I am going to go sit in the corner in shame now.

Hahaha! No worries, we all have our moments! :)

Glad you figured it out. Be sure to make a backup of your current rom on your new SD card right away haha.

Flashing unsigned bits of data to arbitrary location in NAND/ROM is generally not possible without manipulating bootloader.

1). What device is it?

2). What makes you think you read ROM and not RAM?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mysymbol:
Thanks for your reply,

1. At this point I would rather not disclose the information about the device, for simple reason of securing the solution available to one person that is going to be paid $1000.

2. I can take pictures of the actual Mother board showing the type of chips which hold this information.

3. I know for sure that this is ROM and where it is since I had a company with very expensive BGA rework station to take them out and read them. This is a good solution but to be setup with BGA rework and reflashing chips with programmer like Xeltech that alone cost $1800 plus BGA adaptor for $600 I am looking at at least $10,000 up front cost.

please help, looks like you know what are you talking about.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stepw:
Whether it's possible really depends on the device. Is it an HTC device at all?

I'm asking about RAM vs. ROM because 0xA0000000 is where RAM is mapped to on some HTC's WM5 devices. It's entirely possible that you are reading a cached copy of ROM contents from RAM, rather than ROM directly with pmemdump.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mysymbol:
Not its not HTC, Maybe I can post a picture of the board?

Do you have any commands that I can try. Looks like there are some but they are not compiled and I do not know how to copile and use them.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stepw:
If you have pmemmap.exe handy, can you grab the output and provide it?

If you have a flash dump from the programmer, can you upload it somewhere?

Thanks for the details.

0xA0082000 is not in the list at all, is it an accurate address you pmemdump at?

To confirm if it's RAM or flash, you can try writing at 0xA0082000 with pmemset.exe. If it's RAM, it will be written, if it's flash, it will fail. It may fail for other reasons too though...

Direct NAND programming from WM5 is not likely to be possible at all, so it doesn't really matter what NAND IC is used. Contents may help though.

If you have a full NAND dump, please post it as well or send me a PM.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mysymbol:
How do I do Nand dump, which command to use?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] stepw:
Well, I thought you'd have it if you desoldered flash IC and programmed it externally. If you don't, then pdocread.exe is the best you can do.

DOC dump won't have bootloaders or NVRAM area you are probably trying to modify though, so it may be of little value, but it's at least something...

I have a problem with mounting my phone in Windows (see here; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=841645) and I need to return it for testing.

How can I flash it back to stock without a USB connection?

E.E.
[Legend General] randy_khoo:
Assuming you're rooted and on a custom ROM

You will need unlimited data to try this.

Not sure if this will work, but please do try.

1. Make sure your phone is juiced up.

2. Download the Stock RUU you want from the internet - save to your sdcard

3. Download another sense based ROM that you has no issues with the USB cable - check the post and changelogs.

4. Perform rom backup with ROM manager (get from android market)

5. Wipe and flash new Sense based ROM on your phone.

6. Once your phone is booted, the USB SHOULD WORK.

7. Move RUU to your PC. Link to HTC sync - phone should be set to sync.

8. Install RUU.

And once it is one, you have unrooted and are back to stock ROM.

Should your USB fail at stage 6, you should try a different custom ROM.

If it's still not working, you might want to search how to USB unbrick (i think there's something like that on the forums).
[Legend General] eepunk:
Unfortunately its not a rom problem. The USB issue seems to be a hardware problem.

I have flashed multiple different backups from CM6 to myvery first backup I made of the newly rooted rom.

I just need to put a stock rom on it so that I can get warranteed service. Otherwise I'm pretty sure they'll just shoot it back to me, marked warranty void.

E.E.

I had also problems with mounting USB, can't tell if they were the same as I don't use windows and can't tell how it behaves. My problem was solved after I flashed the rooted vodafone FroYo. Maybe this could help you, too.
[Legend General] eepunk:
I haven't tested it yet but it may be as simple as downloading the zip from shipped-roms.

(http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...35.21_release_130330_signed.zip&send_file=yes)

Renaming it to update.zip and flashing it from Recovery.

Can anyone confirm?

E.E.
[Legend General] eepunk:
Actually the best solution I've found yet is this one here from the CM forums.

This using the .img files from the zip I downloaded from Shipped-Roms earlier

Since I have Fastboot available to me, this seems the most hopeful method.

Can anyone confirm is this not just hopeful thinking?

Oh, too bad. My epic runs super fast at 1.6 ghz. With absolutely no problems. This epic CPU should do 1.8ghz with no issues. Can't wait!

I have a question somewhat pertaining to this. I want to overclock, so I was thinking of flashing a custom ROM. I created a ROM of my system as-is, with the stock ROM. If I wanted to flash my backup ROM and get rid of the new one with a different kernel, will I be able to just flash my backup, or do I have to flash the stock kernel before I flash the ROM back?

Probably a stupid question, but I am slow, so better to ask than mess up my phone.
[Epic 4G General] amosher13:
aye, its better to ask than brick, but even BETTER to search! ;) but i wont be a total douche, if you backed up your phone with cwm, restoring your backup will restore EVERYTHING on your phone as it was when you backed up, kernel included, so no need to flash a stock kernel back first. did you backup with clockworkmod recovery or a backup app?
[Epic 4G General] coldblooded79:
It does not backup the kernel. Flash the kernel of your backup and then do the nandroid restore:)
[Epic 4G General] swanysto:
I did the clockwork backup. So if I go download the stock kernel from the brick thread, than I can just flash the kernel with odin, then do a restore with the backup I made?

Thanks guys.

I use cwm to flash back to stock. Kernel and everythings gets put back in place again.i never have used odin. Cwm does a fair job.

Believe me, I've looked.

I'm working with a nexus build and I'm becoming more and more curious about making it truly mine! The ROM itself runs better than anything else that I've tried, but it isn't quite as brilliant and colorful as I'd like it to be.

I've given myself a denim notification bar with a painting for my status bar background, and a custom status bar close on.

So, I've poked around the file system a bit and get the basic idea of the structure.

I've extracted the MMS.apk and have made a few minor changes to a couple notification colors. But what I'm really looking to do is add colored text bubbles and black out the back ground.

Yes, I'm aware that I can just D/L one of the SMS apps from the market, but I want to have control over the final product. (I'm a big fan of textures, not just colors)

I'm attempting to read the android manifesto with little success as I don't have a strong background in programming. I've d/led a XML Text editor but I continue to get an error that ends in "hexadecimal value 0x03, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 1." I get that error on every XML file I try to open.

So I turned to the almighty google, but had little success in understanding the language that most people were speaking in. :confused:

Hi all.

I've done a restore for my i9000 and I lost my contacts. I've imported them again from gmail, as oppose to the first time I purchased the phone, I than copied my contacts from my sim card.

Now I have all the contacts with the 'g' mark next to them. I've added my facebook account and imported my contacts from there as well.

I'm trying to join duplicate contacts to a single contact so I would have the photo taken from facebook and the rest of the detail from gmail.

I than click on a contact from gmail and select JOIN Contacts which leads me to a screen with GET FRIENDS button (did I mentioned that I've already imported my facebook contacts?). Now I'm suppose to see the duplicated in order to join but I see nothing.

I click on the GET FRIENDS and then FACEBOOK account and then I choose the contact I want to join.

It doesn't join, it simply imports the contact to my contact list and it is displays it next to the gmail contact rather have them joined.

I've tried the other way, of clicking the facebook contact and join it to gamil contact, doesn't help.

It used to work for me.

Please help me fix it.

Thanks :)

Well there you have it if you dont want your ringtones to come up with the list of music in the media play downsize the file to under 300kb. It worked for me. I hope it makes some other Captivate owners happy. Have a wonder full day
