Howdy Guys

A few days ago a mate of mine employed me to help him root his new toy. After doing mine multiple times (for various reasons) it was supposed to a piece of cake.

My method (I may have missed a point or two but you get the main idea):

1. Unrevoked

2. Install Titanium Backup, full backup

3. Copy entire SD contents

4. Install Rom Manager / Partition SD Card

5. Copy rom over to SD Card and install

6. Upgrade radio

7. From rom restore stuffs and go nuts

(optional but wanted to do)

8. S-OFF via bootable USB stick

Anyway turns out almost every step of the way was hampered because of new hardware. Here's the HBoot screen details:

BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.0001

MICROP-051d

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.09.05.30_2

Aug 10 2010,17:52:18

For anyone else that has a desire with these specs please save yourself a lot of time and "oh ****" moments and know the following:

- Clockwork recovery will not work, you need to flash ArmonRa via the SDK with fastboot.exe OR via Unrevoked, before plugging in your phone go File > Choose alternate recovery and link it to AmonRa which you downloaded.

- Rom manager will not work (as it relies on ClockworkRecovery)

- SD Card partitioning and Upgrading to EXT3 needs to be done in AmonRa Recovery.

- Current S-OFF methods will not work and will send black lines across your HTC Boot splash screen. S-OFF tool reports failure at step 3. Ripping the battery and then restoring via recovery is the only fix.

Cheers.

I have a pvt4 and use clockwork
[Desire General] geminga:
Sounds bad...But it should not take much time till there is a working solution for this :)
[Desire General] hridaya:
i have that type of desire.

and i have encounter no problem on rooting unrevoked /s-off with alphaville 1.5

i have used various roms (auraXsense and hd roms Rcmix, ownhere dhd)

used amonra and clockmodwork....at least 30 times

i have used 3,4 radio versions and upgraded to the latest 5.11.05.27

everything works and stable with richard v5f kernel and rcmix 14 + set cpu....

and they are working.

it is exactly your specification

except that now mine is S-off.

spec seems the same except

Bravo Pvt3 ship S-off but maybe is from the s-off procedure

Aug 102010 17:52:18

microp 051d

really i do not know if it was before pvt4 or what pvt3/4 means...

anyway i want to know considering maybe i will encounter future desire and maybe you are right... and it is possible that they are not working.

you cold try a Ruu update and try again the all process maybe something went wrong somewhere
[Desire General] EddyOS:
You not seen the rather LARGE thread in General about this??
[Desire General] Kiralina:
I have the same specs on my Desire and the latest clockwork(2.5.1.2) works. I'm not S-Off.

I flashed 6-7 roms with no problems.

I didn't use RomManager,so I don't know, but partitioned the sd card from recovery, under advanced options with no problems.
[Desire General] superste2201:
Only happens on some PVT4 devices (two different types), and there is already a thread about this.

My PVT4 has clockwork, S-OFF, root, custom splash1, etc.
[Desire General] gpnda:
Yea there is definitely a new model i have the same problems. Clockwork Recovery dont work only Amon Ra and Alpharev dont work either. Stops at step 3 everytime saying:

"Could not push the initial files during step 1. this is most likely a permissions error on your data partition.

We have tried our best to circumvent this, but most likely your ROM is either not rooted properly, causing failure.

Your best option is to backup everything, and flash a custom ROM that is properly rooted and has ADB root.

Remember: your HBOOT is NOT S-OFF, and it is not bricked."

anyone know of a method that addresses this? Perhaps included in cyanogen rom?...

Let's say I'm in the middle of a call and I use the dialpad to enter in a number (customer support usually refers you to different numbers to call), I see the + option that allows you to add that number to a contact or create a new one.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] trancehead:
I first flashed my Touch Diamond about a year ago and lost the sound. I had a new phone at the time so I just left but I am keen to get it going again for a friend to use.

I followed the steps here (currently xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=416211) and curently have radio "1.00.25.05" and the SPL is "SPL-1.34.Hard"

It doesn't seem to matter what ROM I flash the sound still doesn't come through the speaker although I've recently noticed that it does work when using the headphones.

I have tried soft and hard resets as well as clearing the internal storage. I've also tried MTTY without much success (total noob there so I could have been doing it wrong).

What else can I try to fix this issue as I've run out of ideas?

Update: HTC startup sound doesn't come through the headphones so it only seems to work once it's booted up.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Poedra13:
As i can see I will give you the answer :D:D:D

I've experienced the same problem one year ago...I didn't flashed my phone but I had the same problem..NO SOUND..

So my friend the only thing you have to do is to:

1)just move all your Files to your PC(move them,do not copy them)!

2)hard reset your phone

3)put the files back again in your internal storage :)

AND YOU ARE READY!!! :D :D :D

I did all of these steps and I solved the problem...give it a try,you don't have to lose something..!

Please let me know if this method will solve the problem...

PEACE

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
Might i suggest you disassemble your diamond and clean the metalic plating both on your speaker and circuit board above.

Here i provide the pdf

I can guarantee this will solve ur problem if the case is just dust and dirt contanimation.

IMPORTANT. While you are cleaning, please DO NOT make any rough cleaning on the circuit boards and especially around the metalic plates

SO essentially what you need to clean is this part ONLY...

So basically you are just going to remove 3 screws and clean the top cover and platings. DONT MESS WITH ANYTHING ELSE.

DISCLAIMER: I do not take any responsibility whatsoever happens from your side, or any other reasons involved.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] trancehead:
I can't believe it, that actually worked. It didn't work after I had cleaned but as soon as everything was screwed on again it starting working again. A million thanks to you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ayyu3m:
The reason why it started to work as soon as the screws were in place is because, some screws in the device enable the contact between the circuit board and the device components.

This is done by manufacturers to minimize the use of wires and any other "additional" component needed to complete the circuit. Thus they make use of components in the device to their maximum possible to carry out an electric contact or function, be it a screw or anything else EXCEPT the ones you are in direct contact with, like a stylus...

**and nope this is not a class** hehehehe. i m jus sharing my knowledge.

because jus in case one removes a screw and loses it....you can say their devices are really SCREWED NOW!!!!

haha ;)
[Streak 5 Android Development] N1CWIKI:
What up everyone.

So here is my problem. I finally decided to upgrade to DJ_Steve 1.4.6 last week. I first went to O2 2.1. Then flash the clockwork recovery, flash the 2 files (amss and camera fix), and then flashed 1.4.6 and got stuck a Dell logo loop. Then tired to flash his 1.1.1 first, the two files (amss and camera fix) and I still was unable to get past the Dell logo loop. After trying the methods posted to get past the boot loop (none worked for me), I tried the QDL Tool and still was not able to get there due to a fastboot driver issue (which still has not been resolved). I'm using Win 7 64bit. I followed the QDL videos to the T. Here is where my new problem began. I just uninstalled the ADB driver and reinstalled it then ran the QDL Tool and it failed again at fastboot. Now my streak is stuck in another loop that I have not seen before. Here it is....

After powering on, I get;

Dell logo

white screen (wait for factory reset)

Dell logo

and then its starts all over again.

I tried to get into Fastboot (power + camera) but I can't. I also tried to reinstall the 8105 2.1 update.pkg from SD (both Volume + power, option 2) and I still get the loop.

I am not sure what I did but I would greatful if someone would walk me through this issue and get me on DJ_Steve's 2.2 1.4.6 or at least back to OS 2.1. I've been at this for over a week.

Thanks in advance

[Click Themes and Apps] josebagar:
Just uncompress the zip file in your computer. It'll extract quite a few things, but we only want the two files in the "system" folder.

First, remount the system partition on your phone as read-write (adb remount), then adb push the apk to /system/app to your device, then the lib to /system/lib on your device.

Not sure about the exact names of the files, but it should be something like:

adb push system/app/LatinIME.apk /system/app

adb push system/lib/libwhatever.so /system/lib

That should do it. You might want to make a backup of the old files, in case things go wrong.

much thanks..
[Android] codybear:
I, along with others, would suggest to start with the stock rom.

It forces you to learn the ins and outs of how things work and how to do certain mods and helps you just understand everything overall. but you can always choose to start with someone else's rom, but that doesn't necessarily make you a rom chef.

I have no problem getting into ROM's head first.. taking someone else work and reworking it to my own doesnt give me any gratification.. i'd like to be able to say "i made this work this way". yeah everyone is doing ROM's, will i ever release what i do, who knows.. i just know what i want..

i'm not looking into making the best ROM out or recoding till my eyes hurt.. I would like to learn the in's n outs.. And learn to implement some of the MODS currently out.

did some searching and i've come up with Stock Incredible Sense *3.26.605.1* (Rooted) by rmk as a base.. any better bases?

now that im thinking of it, i'll need to get the OTA's worked in from there..

Hey guys. I just got my new Micro SDHC 16GB Class 10 card. Yes class 10.

I copied everything from my stock HD2 16GB SD, Everything. Right into my new Wintec 16GB Micro C10. and then reboot to Android. Everything seems to be running smooth and fine. But I do have one weird issue. Sometimes it takes a little while to wake up from standby. When I hit the Wake button the key lights turn on, but screen wont. Most of the time it wakes right up, but sometimes it doesn't. Others I'll hit it and the screen stays black and if I touch the screen then it wakes up and I can slide to unlock.

Wasn't like this before. Is this the card going to sleep, or is something not right? or Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions. I'm thinking I might format the card in Android (so it's properly formated) and then recopy everything over.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
The only thing that's ever done this for me is SetCPU profiles, I've been on the stock 16gb that came with my HD2 and it wakes up just fine with the right SetCPU profile.

What kernel and which scaling are you using? It might be interacting with the SD card a little differently. Have you run Quadrant? although quadrant scores are usually meaningless you can use them for some information. Your I/O score should be a lot higher on the new card if it is actually faster. I have heard of name-brand class 2 significantly outperforming generic/cheap class 6 cards.
