I had the same issue when I reverted back to 2.1. Are you doing a restore from a nandroid backup? I tried doing a straight nandroid restore, failed. I tried wiping and flashing a 2.1 rom and then doing a data restore, failed. Finally, I just gave up and forwent the data restore. I had to rebuild everything, but it worked.

I'm sure you can find a more elegant solution, but it's what worked for me.
[Epic 4G General] jok3sta:
Ibwas having the same problem. It was caused by restoring from a nandroid backup. I just reflashed and restored all my apps manually

Tapatalkin it from my Epic 4G
[Epic 4G General] pjames:
i fixed it by going back to the 2.2 beta rom i was using. i reverted back to 2.1 because gps wasnt working but now gps is working on 2.2 and i have market access. i would say close this thread but i sure somebody else will have this problem and need the help so leave it open:cool:

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksvill:
First off, Yes I have searched more than this site for an answer to the point where my handset would not do anything but go into the recovery menu.

What I want to do is put stock HTC Android on my Desire.

Currently it is rooted but has to be un rooted to go onto works E Mail server. Yes I know it makes no difference but my employer insist on official firmware on handsets.

The handset is a GSM HTC Desire (Bravo)

BRAVO PVT1 SHIP 2-ON

CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY v2.5.0.7

I have tried several RUU's only to be told of a boot loader error.

Can some one please tell me how this is done?

I asked my network and they could not help so unless some one can help me im going to have to ask HTC.

THANKS in advance

Hi,

I've seen a few posts that refer to getting the HTC ROM changing it's name to PB99.img (or similar or ...) Then reoot the phone. Try searching the forums for this type of solution. I'm sorry but can't remember where I saw it in here.

Regards

I have just tried to use http://shipped-roms.com/download.php...828_signed.exe but it returned a boot loader error... 140 I think
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksvill:
Thanks I have seen that one but I could not get it to work.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gol_n_dal:
Ahh, in that case I'll leave it to the folks that know to help.

Good luck
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksvill:
Thanks for you input mate
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gol_n_dal:
Hmmm,

How would they know if the HTC Sense ROM just happened to be rooted. One could argue that the ROM was a valid HTC ROM. I know it's semantics but ...

The "About phone" would still show HTC as the ROM.

There must already be a variety of ROMs on HTC desires already used in your company.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksvill:
The Clockwork recovery would give it away mate.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockem:
This might work for you:D Not sure if you have tried it but try again:)

WAIT, BEFORE YOU START, CREATE A GOLDCARD. IT IS VERY NECESSARY. THINGS WILL GO WRONG IF YOU DONT.

Firstly, download this file. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13240777/Desire Downgrade.ZIP

Extract the files.

Run the win-down.bat file.

Follow on screen instructions.

After the process is completed, Head to the root of your SD card and check if there is a file named PB99IMG, there should be one.

Secondly, disconnect your phone and turn it off. (MAKE SURE PHONE IS CHARGED TO AT LEAST 70%++

After that boot up your phone while pressing the volume down button and the power button.

The bootloader should be checking for files after awhile and once it found the file that is supposed to be in the root of your sd card, press the volume up button (NOT EXACTLY SURE, SHOULD BE THE ONE THAT SAYS YES AND CONTINUE)

It should be writing files to your phone. and replaces everything. E.G: HBOOT, RECOVERY,RADIO and such.

It should be writing files successfully and then it would ask you to reboot. Continue with the reboot and you should be having your Desire back to stock. Perfect.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE ARE RISKS INVOLVED LIKE FAILURE OF WRITING TO THE HBOOT. PLEASE REMEMBER TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. MAINLY, DO NOT BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG.

FINALLY, YOU SHOULD BE READING EVERYTHING UP TO HERE AND THAT YOU MUST HAVE A GOLDCARD (A GOLD SD CARD)

Hope this helps you and please ask if you have further questions. PM me if the questions cannot be answered here. Good Luck:D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockem:
Oh, one more thing, that error you get i think it is because you don't have a GoldCard. You need one to do the above too:D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Yup, "ERROR 140:BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR" The only time you can put a lower bootloader version is when you have a gold card.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
The above method posted by Shockem should work. A second method is to just put a gold card in your device and get the latest WWE RUU. Check my signature for the file. Once a gold card is in, it will work. Note that this method unbrands your device, so if you a branded device with visible logos, dont go for this.

Third method is by flashing the OTA zip file you got from your operator if you have it. Again gold card should be in the device. But is is likely that it may also work without since CustID is same. Advantage: preserves branding
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksvill:
So do I still need a gold card even though my device is rooted?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Certainly.........
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Point is you say you've tried several RUUs and they dont work..Hence we have to assume it's a branded phone. HTC even brands some phones with the brand HTC (Eg Indian HTCs). To unroot a branded HTC, you need a goldcard.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDevilHimself:
i had same problem, i was trying for days till i rememberd that i can downgrade hboot, install android 2.1 and ota update froyo. ( if your desire wasnt branded you dont need goldcard). problem was that i couldnt find stock froyo, only eclair

this thread helped me :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=768256

i hope it helps
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
Point is some people (including me in the past) dont realize that they have a branded phone. There may not be any visible branding. So better be safe than sorry, by creating a goldcard.. Once the device if bricked, you cant (in most cases) create a goldcard
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricksvill:

I'll be doing this tonight.

[Droid X General] darchevo:
can anyone grab me a system dump of the droid x running 2.1 stock?

to do this is easy.

1.)Plug your phone in the pc with usb debugging enabled

2.)open cmd

3.)type in

adb pull /system/

than compress and send me it in a link or pm please. This is very important i hope you guys cooperate.
[Droid X General] Ubermicro13:
I will be getting a replacement DX in the next few days if its still on 2.1 I'll do a pull. But I'm sure you can find the files elsewhere on the internet.
[G2 and Desire Z General] gloscherrybomb:
I'm not sure exactly where this problem lies, but its really annoying me!

If I send a message when I don't have any reception, when I regain signal the message says its sent in handcent but it still shows the sending spiral thing. In the default message app it also shows a little logo to suggest its still sending. Sometimes it can take a whole day to actually send.

Is there a way to force send a message in this state?

Thanks in advance
[G2 and Desire Z General] rmclardy:
I wondered this too. thought it was handcent causing the probs so uninstalled it. has happened once since. really annoying theres no "stop sending" or "resend" option available.
[G2 and Desire Z General] CoolinHL:
This happened to me too. To get rid of it, I long pressed on the message in Handcent and deleted the message. Don't know if it actually sent or not.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Problem in Handcent ? Because it's fine for me in the stock SMS app from HTC.
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
I've been running it for a few days and I have to say its a lot better than DG27, DI07, and DI18.

I would've preferred this over any of those official releases. It has its fair share of bugs, but their not hard to workaround once you figure them out and Its battery lasts loadsssssss longer than I did ith any any the official stock roms.

I can't go back to eclair lol. I need an official release of froyo now because it can only get better lol. I might not even have to root ith stock froyo at this rate :O
[Epic 4G General] AndrewZorn:
So is this a newer Froyo beta than DK05? I still haven't figured out the naming conventions.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gol_n_dal:
Hi,

I recently decided to install the N1 partition table, it ended up going very smoothly apart from being able to restore the most recent nandroid backup, MD5 error (or words to that effect).

Not worying too much I just reinstalled CM6.1 from scratch, again all went smoothly.

I then did a nandroid backup and then rebooted then restored the nandroid backup, everything worked perfectly.

I then installed a cooked zip file from http://circle.glx.nl/.

That failed to boot after installing, no prob I thought, just recover from the nandroid backup.

I got another MD5 error from the one that I previously restored from.

So another reinstall, nandroid backup and recovery later it's all ok again.

Unfortunately I'm losing confidence in nandroid now.

Any thoughts ??

Colin
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
Md5 is a checksum, it makes sure the images your trying to restore are the same as when backed up! Maybe theres a problem with your recovery, flash it again from fastboot, only takes a second
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gol_n_dal:
Aye I know what MD5 is, I just couldn't remember the exact words when the MD5 check failed.

The thing is though that I'd already tested the nandroid image by recovering it, all OK. Then made a change to the ROM tried to restore the same (previously working nandroid backup) which failed with the checksum error.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Droidzone:
It can also happen of your Sdcard is failing and the files on it are getting corrupted. Since MD5 is a checksum, a change in even a few bytes could cause issues
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vpraveenis:
I too have faced MD5 checksum issues.

1.copy the files to the sd card via the phone mounted as Disk drive mode

2.Safe remove the device from windows

3.Once you unplug, the device will shortly show "Preparing SD card" in the notification bar. Wait for a full minute

4.Switch off device to boot in recovery.

For me, if i dont wait a minute after unplugging the device, clockworkmod will report the files as corrupt. Maybe the device is updating the inode tables and switching the device off immediately after copying and unplugging causes it to corrupt filesystem tables.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gir489:
I liked the baby blue color back on the 2.1 stock. The new 2.2 JJ6 beta has this ugly navy blue color.

Is there a way to change it without reverting back to 2.1?

The one on the left is a 2.1 Galaxy S screenshot. The one on the right is the screenshot I took on a 2.2 JJ6 Captivate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gir489:
Bump. ■
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvertag:
Colors are in the image files of the framework-res.apk. There's no way to do it other then replacing each files with the appropriate one from 2.1 or changing the color manually of each image file and reuploading the package back to your phone.

You either have to live with it, use a theme or do it manually.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gir489:
I'll decompile it when I get home tonight.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gir489:
There doesn't seem to be anything about the colors in the images. They're just a bunch of boot logo images.

Depends. Most newer builds offer improved GUI and software in expense of more CPU power and RAM usage. I think 6.5.3 is the lastest, not stable one(for HD)

Thanks Retsamm. I guess I dont want more RAM usage !

I was thinking of the overclock option, so maybe if a higher version becomes stable that might be a way of using it.....

Greetings !

This thread is going to help those willing to cook X8 roms.

I have extracted and uploaded all the files to make it possible for others to join the development process.

Files :

SE X8 Donut sources

Extracted 1.0.A.62 debranded ROM

system.img of latest rom

These files should be all one needs to cook a rom with kitchen from XDA.

I have very little experience cooking roms, so I hope someone more experienced could use files and save time.

Attached are files to boot from /sdcard , these were tested to work for booting "original" rom from the sdcard partition.

To use, make 3 partitions (fat,ext2,ext2), those will be mounted as /sdcard,/system,/data.

unpack system.img into second partition and you are good to go.

So far there's no working cooked rom, but soon it should be available.

Leave your comments and suggestions.

THIS IS NOT A THREAD FOR TROLLING OR SPAMMING, DO NOT POST IF YOU HAVE NOTHING TO CONTRIBUTE!!!

Custom kernels, drivers are not possible till bootloader is cracked.

But a custom rom based on current kernel should be possible...anybody have any clue whether custom roms being made for x10 could be ported to x8(once we get 2.1)?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sectoras:
It's not possible. Answered before in this forum.

So can we use 2.2 based on the old kernel (2.6.29)?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] muharama:
i think the answer is yes,

custom rom for x10 use the old kernel (2.6.29)

and jarpaela said 2.6.29 is not too diffrent with 2.6.32

and x8 kernel is 2.6.29

correct me if im wrong
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] muzik_demon:
****! Yes that means we are running donut on eclairs kernel!

Why couldn't they give us eclair in the first place!

Theoretically its possible..but there could be problems of drivers and other compatibility issues if we use custom roms built by jerpelea and zidhzu.

Only if either of them had an x8..

Has any one tried flashing the roms?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] muharama:
i dont think so,,,

maybe donut and eclair kernel is same,

but in theory is true we can use it

but we cant use custom rom develop by j and z

i think we must made it from start...

is it anyone can ask j and z how they can implant froyo on eclair,,??

i think if we know it, we can make it

(except for develop driver for me,)

i think is it hard project but not imposible

I've built custom linux installs before, so I have no issues getting dirty with Android. Just need to learn how. Gimme some time, I'll work on it. :D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] knzo:
Well then, if that's the case, why not:

a) grab kernel, drivers, etc @ boot.img from released x8 donut source

b) merge it with aosp 2.1 and tweak the inits

c) root it

d) convert everything to .syn

e) flash through bin4ry's tool

Wouldn't this be "theoretically" possible?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] a-k-t-w:
You would think so.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] goeland86:
I'd say it counts. If you want to take a look, go ahead. After all, I'm sure other devs will jump in if you have specific questions that you need answered, rather than "can we get 2.2 for X8 please".
