1.19 is at the link ianmcquinn gave you ages ago. download that.

then....

EDIT...... aha,.... ur waiting for the extracted one without recovery etc.....
[G2 and Desire Z General] Hot_Hands:
Yes he should have read more and I'm positive he's had a hell of a learning experience. At least he's taking initiative to fix it and not sending it off for warranty.

Having said that.

This is a custom PC10IMG.zip built from files available at shipped-roms.com. I have removed the radio.img and replaced the recovery.img with Koush's ClockWorkMod recovery.

It will restore your system to the original 1.12 release. It was also flash the 0.76.2000 engineering hboot as well as 2.5.1.2 Clockwork Recovery, saving you a bit of hassle the next time around.

Put it in the root of your SD card and then go into hboot and select BOOTLOADER.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Hot_Hands:
After flashing this, don't bother with OTAs. The eng hboot and clockwork recovery will be in place so just go ahead and flash Enomthers rom from your SD card.
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
Downloading now...I hope this works. You sound so sure it will. It just finish downloading. Give me a few...
[G2 and Desire Z General] joemm:
Nice job......
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
Yes! Yes! Success! Thank you so much Hot_Hands. I'm gonna come back to this post and hit the "Thanks" several more times. I will also make sure to thank everyone else who tried to help. I know 2 were holding their nuts on me...hoping it would be bricked permanently. At first I thought it wasn't working because it said " no image or wrong image" Now THIS should be a sticky. So now all I have to do is the OTA update from here?

One other thing, if there were not problems there would not be problem solvers. My mistake will undoubtedly help others. It also bought out Hot_Hands ingenuity.
[G2 and Desire Z General] blackknightavalon:
Reroot your phone and install CyanogenMod.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Hot_Hands:
Don't worry about OTAs. You're gonna run a custom rom and already have the eng-hboot and clockwork recovery so just go into recovery and flash Enomthers ROM like you wanted to. Should be smooth sailing from there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] DJ ELITE:
click on the link in my signature. it saved my @SS. :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
Man, thanks again. I kinda hate to leave...we all shared an experience here.:D

I will see you around and I won't forget those "Thanks".
[G2 and Desire Z General] Hot_Hands:
Glad to see it all sorted out. Take care :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
Why, is that the best thing going?
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
Is flashing that RUU safer than flashing the HBOOT? If so, could you just make a PC10IMG.zip containing only the ENG HBOOT, and recovery? Or just the HBOOT? Because I'm sorta scared about flashing the ENG HBOOT. I'm planning on getting my G2 in the next few weeks and I would like to root it with Rage and GFree then just use one of those RUUs to flash the ENG HBOOT for me, I can flash the recovery myself, I'm just sorta scared about flashing the HBOOT because there currently isn't a way to recovery from a failed HBOOT flash.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Hot_Hands:
The RUU is a Rom Update Utility. It flashes everything. The Hboot is the bootloader on the phone. The PC10IMG is a collection of .imgs that will flash automatically if the file is placed in the root of your SD card.

The reason why my PC10IMG worked for MobileWon is because he was already S-Off. You can't flash different hboots or recoveries with S-On which is why you need to use the gfree/rage method first.

All the PC10IMG is doing is automating the process. clockwork recovery can be installed from ROM Manager. There really isn't much to be scared of when flashing the hboot as long as you're following the guide on the wiki.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
Ah alright, I see now, thank you for telling me what all that stuff is, I'm coming from a G1 so I don't know what all that stuff is yet(I don't have my G2 yet either.) I know how to flash a recovery and I fully understand the root guide for Rage and GFree(at least I think I do, I haven't tried it yet as I don't have a G2 yet) but I was just scared of flash the HBOOT, but from what I have heard every one say, its not hard to flash the HBOOT, I'll probably flash it some time after I've rooted and have CWM running.

I've flashed the new SPL and Radio for the G1 via flastboot, by the way.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Hot_Hands:
Just to clarify, the eng-hboot isn't required. It offers some capability via fastboot like flashing custom splash screens and potential ass-saving-measures if you screw up your phone. If you just wanna root and run a custom ROM you'll be fine just getting s-off on the stock hboot and installing clockwork.
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidcues:
Nice job Hot! Ill never forget this thread.
[G2 and Desire Z General] apollostees:
I think so. But, thats my opinion. It's usualy what every rom is based on.

Plus one for fighting back all the haters.

It's a shame, but a lot of people here feel they have the right to dis you if you make a mistake or ask a question that they feel is stupid.

Personally I don't understand that way of thinking. If that's the case then why post anything. The whole forum should just be full of guides.

Anyway glad you got that straightened out.
[G2 and Desire Z General] wileykat:
I concur, bravo Hothands.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pierrekid:
Seriously great job hothands! That's the kind of positive support we need on these forums. Ionic7 you should take notes because that is how you respond to normal question.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Nice to see a bad situation turn into a positive outcome, well done folks :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] wileykat:
Mobilewon..... just edit ur thread title n put [SOLVED] in it please. Nice one.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shuka325:
+100!!!

Read through this whole thread and it's just a great example of what xda is (or should be) all about. Knowledge being used to help, teach and learn. Just a great job hothands.Very cool, hothands sounds like someone who really knows their stuff and took their time to use their skills to help another person and in the process not only taught the person a little (or lot) about their new phone but also taught everyone else that read this. Sorry for the sappiness, just had to take the time to say job WELL done.
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
I agree totally. This is the first time I've been attacked on any site. I don't let people talk to me any kind of way in person, so of course not on a site. It's funny to be judged by someone who supposedly has a perfect hacking/modding history when it's so obvious by their attitudes that their lives are far from it.

By the way, I've installed CyanogenMod-6.1. Love it!:D

Done. Thanks for the heads up.
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
Yes I agree, I learned what an RUU is, how to use it and what those .zip files do and how to use them.

You might want to check out the alpha versions of CyanogenMod 7, it runs 2.3 Gingerbread and people say that its pretty stable. You would need to flash a new recovery though.
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
Thanks. I'm going to try it as soon as I read up on and flash a new recovery...pretty sure that will be sometime today.:)
[G2 and Desire Z General] KoolKidsKlub:
Ah, there you go, that's what your suppose to do before doing any kind of mod to your phone, you should get into the habit of doing that, your almost guaranteed that you won't screw up your phone if you know what your doing ;)

I've been doing that for the past few years and I have never screwed up my devices because I take my time to research it(I don't just mod phones, but everything you could think of :)) I've been reading up on rooting a G2 for the past week or so by looking at threads like these and learning how to fix it if something like this were to happen. I'm confident that when I get my G2, I won't brick it. If ever you want to do something that's cool on your device, look up on it, research it by using the search button on XDA then once you think you have all the information, make a thread here on XDA asking people to make sure that what you have is correct ;)

By the way, here is a guide that should tell you every thing you need http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=909714 ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] imakul8:
Well, that's the misconception...I do read and very well. I also like to search. My cousin calls me a "Googling fool". I had a HD2 previously and did everything I wanted to it...never had a problem. I had spent the last 3 days trying to figure out the best way to root. I decided to go with adb. Of course I had to do more research just to figure out how to install it and navigate it. But, true, I did not research changing the status bar color properly in my mental fatigue and haste. I took a gamble and lost. So, I humbled myself and asked for help. Keep in mind, just 3 years ago, I didn't know what copy and paste was. I've come a long way. Thank you for the link. Let me get to it.:D
[G2 and Desire Z General] ianmcquinn:
Glad you were able to get it all working again properly, but to be fair, this misconception that you didn't read properly before jumping in was caused by the information you provided (all you stated was the you've had the phone for about a day, rooted it, didn't create a backup, and then caused a bootloop). You said yourself that you didn't read in this case (when editing the framework), so it wasn't really a misconception. Also, perhaps I'm just not as sensitive as some people, but I don't consider someone telling me that I should read more carefully before doing potentially dangerous things as an attack. In fact, the first "attack" I saw on this thread was from you ("you can suck IT. I bet you a pro at that too."). I'm not sure I would exactly call that "humbling myself" as you put it...

Did you also happen to read the thread I linked to an hour after you asked for help? The thread contained not only the stock PC10IMG.zip for the G2, but the instructions on how to use it (basically what you ended up doing, though Hot_Hands modified the zip so you wouldn't have to update again to get the newer radio from the OTA and gave you the engineering hboot should you wouldn't have to flash it yourself if you had chosen to do so---not necessary to fix your issue, but saves you time in the future). I'm guessing you didn't read it though since you still asked for a link on how to flash the stock rom after I posted (I'm also guessing you didn't search for it or you would have found it yourself). If you had read the thread, you wouldn't have had to continue "humbling" yourself by waiting for others to provide you with help.

While I commend you on how far you've come in three years and can understand that you were a bit panicked yesterday, I don't think accusing other people of attacks when they are simply stating the obvious is the best way to get help (even in your accusation today while presumably no longer panicked, you made a personal attack again).

Just my two cents as someone who actually does try to help out other users when possible. Perhaps there can be a little more civility on all sides...

Congrats on the new phone though. You'll have a lot of fun messing around with it like the rest of us!

[G2 and Desire Z General] LGS1231:
I'm new to Android so I'm still afraid of all this rooting business. So I don't know when I'll actually try and root my phone, but I'll definitely download the file that Hothands uploaded in case I ever need it in the near future (I'll make sure I have S-OFF as well after reading most posts in this thread).

But I'm really replying to this thread to thank Hothands. It's great seeing people help each other out and Hothands really helped not only the OP but any future users who brick their phone. I thanked him, and you should all too by hitting that THANKS bar!
[G2 and Desire Z General] dilfatx:
I tried this and got message saying this is "wrong image" so it wouldn't install
[G2 and Desire Z General] wileykat:
Why are you trying this? What is your issue?.... is yours a g2 or DZ? You are only to use this method if the ROM originally shipped with ur handset was the same as the OP's.

I need help changing the battery icon on my Ultimate Droid Rom 2.5.0 for the HTC incredible. I love everything about this Rom but the battery icon, I tired a lot of flash zips with no luck. I just want this red battery and it would be perfect. Can someone please help me out?

thanks to everyone that helped and the devs that made all files, I take no credit for the work that was done here.

these 3 zips are metamorph themes, they work great. The phone resets and it changes the wallpaper to default, but you can just change it back. If anyone one else knows about batts that will work well on UD 2.5.0 please let me no.

Also if you can, can u make one for sense aswell I'm running skyraider 3.5
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Devildog8791:
The battery that he wanted is from an ASOP rom. You want it for an HTC Sense based rom. I would be more than happy to make you one for Skyraider 3.5, but I will need to use one that has all the battery images.

An AOSP rom calculates battery percentage in increments of 20 and most Sense based roms have the 1% increment mod, therefore it uses more battery images. If you look through the Themes and Apps section for the Incredible, then just try and find a battery that you like. If they don't already offer it for Skyraider, then let me know and I'll make one up.

These were just posted in the Themes and Apps section. These are not my work, but I believe that they include all of the images needed.

The picture below shows the red, blue and green battery, but I just posted the charging animation for the red since I think that is the route you want to go.

thank you, i will give it a shot
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AndroidSamurai:
A little tip for you if I may.

Your best bet for quality and file size is to convert your vids to .mp4 format and keep the bitrate around 1500kbps.

AVI files tend to be a little bit taxing on even an overclocked android device. So as far as performance goes, you are better off trying the .mp4 format.

Hope this helps you out...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] chisox05matt:
stupid question

Could the reason its not working, because of the DRM? if it is i dont get it then cause its a digital copy to be used on a portable device. grrr
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AndroidSamurai:
Most "digital copy" versions are loaded with drm. Which would explain the scrambled feed...

I would say get a good decrypting app and learn how to rip/encode your dvds like I do. Lol
