What's new in 3.0.0.5?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] $ideWinder:
Just to inform you all Download Clockwork Revovery 3.0.0.5 isnt workin well with this fone yet.Check out yourselves by tryin to install a theme .It will giv u a message sayin aborted.So 4 now2.5.1.8 is fine!! :cool:
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] MegaBubbletea:
Oh good. I haven't flashed it yet. Gotta wait until someone fixes the bugs.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] fishears:
It's not that there are bugs. Clockwork 3 is meant for Gingerbread, not Froyo and update-script was dropped at version 3.0.0.0

If we want to use this version we need to change our update.zip files.

Anyway, I've emailed the developer to say I have the build info for GT540 so hopefully he'll add us to ROM Manager and future recoveries. I'd like to be able to apply update.zip files without booting into recovery...

Something is wrong i think on my phone. I have rooted it with androot. All is okay. But want to flash recovery it stops and say: Waiting for device. What's wrong?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
Are you in fastboot mode? What Rom are you using? It may not have fastboot, and if you are in fastboot make sure your phone is recognised by the computer
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] djemm1996:
I have stock rom. I turn phone down. and then POWER+Camera. Then my phone just have black screen. and when i type fastboot devices it don't show my anything. just new line. Strange..
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] djemm1996:
Anyone, please, help me?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
What you need to make sure you have is the android and gt540 usb drivers. You also have to make sure that your Pc makes the recognition noise on connection with phone :) thats all i can think of, I'm assuming you have the android sdk software installed?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] djemm1996:
I have all installed... Driver, SDK so on. But I have 1.6 rom, you know?Tried too unplug-plug method. But not work. But when i pus VOL UP + CAMERA + POW there i get into "Download mode" what is that?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] djemm1996:
Okay. I get it working. But i want to get into recovery. I push HOME+POW but nothing.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
..you should probably get an update to a 2.1 fastboot rom mate. Im pretty sure the original 1.6 rom didn't support fastboot. Go and use quarx's Black rom or find the Clockwork Recovery 2.5.0.5 android 2.1 rom and use the KDZ updater. Will be easier from there
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] desmail:
if you have an original 1.6 ROM, you probably did not fastboot so you can not flash the recovery. to put the recovery, you must have fastboot and then at least a 2.1 with fastboot:)
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] djemm1996:
I had installed 2.1 with KDZ. And now i have cyanogenmod 2.2.1. ;) With fastboot. But how can now i can get into recovery ? I use for now AmonRA
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
power down the phone. Turn back on and as soon as the first LG screen shows, at the instant it shows, hold down the home button. That's how I do it because if I don't and hold down HOME + POWER at the same time then in recovery my keys don't work. It's strange.

maybe i'm stupid but i don't have fastboot.exe, where do i get this from :\
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Quinny899:
You need to install the Android SDK

from developer.android.com
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] jamiehutber:
cheers dude, got the thing to run now after having a little ddl troubles... another stupid question for you :)

All i get now is < waiting for device >

I have botted the phone into fastboot so i just have a blank screen and i know its turned on as it vibrated before staying black :p

I've also installed what i think is the correct drivers (do i even need to install any drivers)

Obviously it is plugged in via USB.

I guess these questions are annoying for you guys but i couldn't find a 'guide for dummies' on this handset :D
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] lavero.burgos:
of first of all blank screen is not familiar :eek: it has to be black and clean screen no logos

if you are having waiting for device that is familiar maybe you did not install the dirvers for windows recognize you pohne in fastboot mode

is this version of clockwork recovery able to convert ext2 to ext3 and ext3 to ext4? is the process reversible? if not what recovery do you recommend me?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] jamiehutber:
ekk its not meant to be a black screen :\

Heres what i do

Step 1: Power down phone

Step 2: Hold the camera button

Step 3: Hold the power button

Step 4: Feel the vibrate (nothing more)

Step 5: let go of both power and camera...

Step 6: Plug phone into computer

Step 7: Wait forever ;)

So maybe something is wrong with the phone if those steps are correct? If something is wrong any suggestions?
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] lavero.burgos:
the process is correct then if windows doesnt sound when u plug the phone and you are not able to use fastboot without problem then the drivers i gave you are missing.

Here is how to install them:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#InstallingDriver
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] keewanchoapsss:
If you upgrade to 2.3 using mur4iks Rom then use 3.0.2.4 recovery you will find it does what you ask :) dunno if it is reversable
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] jamiehutber:
I think something must be up with my pc. Or my android knowledge is just not quite what i thought it was ;)

So i have the drivers installed. When i plug my phone in normally the only difference i can see in device manager are in the USBC is one more 'USB Mass Storage Device'. When i am in fast boot mode i see no changes in the device manager.

Again i have to say sorry for pestling you guys. So silly question is there a fools guide that i have missed anywhere?

You could do a flashable one, but I'm pretty sure you can just copy the apk to the /data/app folder and it will show up. (I don't THINK root access is necessary for this, but since you mentioned clockwork, I assume that it's already rooted so it doesn't matter...)

I'm new at these forums, I came here for tips & advice to learn how to get rid of all the T-Mobile branding from my HTC Desire HD. With no technical experience of such devices (other than standard use) I soon found out there was a lot to learn.

The purpose of this thread is to get as much information for myself (and other newbies) to learn about the technical terms used, all in one place.

Would anybody be so kind as to offer plain English explanations of the following words/phrases. :)

Although I have a little understanding of some of these words/phrases, I have had trouble in the past so I am listing them for the benefit of others;

S-OFF/S-ON

HBOOT

ENG

Root

Flash

ROM

Radio

ClockWorkMod

CyanogenMod

RUU

BootLoader

Kernal version

Build number

Superuser

I think this is all for now. If you are also a newbie, feel free to post more related Jargon here to help build an all-in-one jargon busting thread!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blinkydamo:
I am my no means an expert but will try and help as much as I can.

S-OFF/S-ON - Security On/Off, this is to do with being able to write to protected parts of the device memory.

ENG <----This is the custom HBOOT that is part of the security work around ^^

ROM - Read Only Memory, usually this is the operating system that you are installing, eg LeeDroid or CyanogenMod.

Radio - Is the software used to link the hardware to the operating system.

ClockWorkMod - A custom recovery image that is used to install new roms, also allows you to do backups of the existing rom (operating system) before upgrading or patching.

CyanogenMod - A team of people developing an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) rom. It has no "sense" from HTC and is very minimalistic, usually very fast and stable.

RUU - (ROM Update Utility) The stock rom installer, use the correct one to return your phone to stock, usually used for returning to the manufacturer.

Build number - The version of the software you are looking at, usually it is in chronological order.

I have not answering the one's I know nothing about, better to wait for someone with more knowledge to come along. I may not be 100% correct, I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.

Good luck.

You have Tmobile branded firmware yes you can change it but it means you put unauthorized firmware on and may invalidate your warranty .

Browsing newegg i found this card, Never heard of this brand. Anyone have any experience before? Class 10 for a 32gb micro sd seems like a real good deal to me.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...11&cm_re=micro_sd_32gb-_-20-161-411-_-Product
[General Accessories] Sloeber94:
That's incredibly fast indeed. The class thingy is official, because it's just as an official label as an Full HD TV is Full HD. So you can't doubt about that.

How many formats it will survive is the question, but I think the quality of SD cards doesn't matter so much anymore (except the classes)
[General Accessories] kacatoo:
I am wondering about that as well. It says it has a lifetime warranty so that's great. Also I found this at Fry's (32GB MICRO SDHC CLASS 10, PATRIOT PSF32GMCSDHC10) for $109.99
[General Accessories] DaHarder:
I just bought two WINTEC 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 cards at Fry's Electronics today, and so far they're working very well in both my Viewsonic G-Tablet and Samsung Galaxy Tab.

I haven't had time to benchmark the card(s) yet, but there's quite a noticeable difference in the performance of my Samsung Galaxy Tab.

So Far - So Good...
[General Accessories] JTXNet:
Well, based on just the reviews I've read on Newegg recently for Wintec-branded cards, I'd have to avoid them myself.

I was looking at the 16GB version of the card you're looking at now (Item=N82E16820161405), from Wintec and a Class 10. The feedback appears mostly negative, with many complaints about the card not functioning at all when the customer received it, several about it's speeds diminishing over time (under 6 months), several more about data corruption and/or complete failure occuring within a few months, and one unsettling one about Wintec blaming the customer for damage/abuse and refusing to honor their "Lifetime Warranty."

I can't speak from personal experience, and customer reviews are not 100% reliable, but there are enough people on Newegg dissatisfied with their Wintec MicroSD card to convince me to purchase another brand.
[General Accessories] GarJones27:
I have two of the 16GB Class 10 cards and they both are working pretty well. One is in my Nookcolor and the other in my Nexus One. Benchmarks were 18.7Mb/sec sequential read and 16.7Mb/sec sequential write. It's a good price and works well so if you are on a budget or just don't want to spend too much money for a card I would recommend these. Hope that helps.
[General Accessories] TRB01:
Saw this on newegg for a pretty good price, a class 10 32GB card for $76 sounded good to me. While there are a few bad reviews I don't hold much stock in newegg buyers tbh. They aren't always the most technically proficient individuals and I always like to try things myself anyway. I'll be more than happy to fight to return the thing if it turns out to be bad. Hard to pass up this kind of thing :).

Here's the newegg link in case anyone is interested. Mine will get here Tuesday so I will post back with a benchmark. Fingers crossed.

EDIT: After some google searching about similar cards from this company I found a thread on this forum about the 16GB model: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=830491

If you skip to the last page you can see the OP and others had some problems with it. I figure I will stress the crap out of it when I get it, try and find any problems before the clock runs out on returns. I'll probably just write to the the entire card, read it all back, then erase and repeat until something bad happens. :) Im sure doing it this way I can recreate a month or two of use in just a day or so.

What file system did you use for those devices? I'm not sure what I should format my 32gb card as for my Droid 2. So far from what I have read from google searches it seems android doesnt support exFAT or NTFS which means no large file support :/. I could format it to ext3 or something but that would mean I couldnt use it on windows. Not sure what to do.

Are any Nexus S's sold locked to T-Mobile? I was under the impression that all Nexus S's were sold unlocked. I found a really nice deal on a Nexus S on craigslist, but they claim that it's locked to T-Mobile.
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
Asked and answered here in the forums already...

The answer is no, none of them are locked to T-Mobile. They are all unlocked, but some were sold on contract, some not. No difference between the two. On opening day of sales, I was #2 in line at Best Buy. The guy who was #1 bought on contract, I bought off contract. Both phones came out of the same cabinet and the same stack of phones...

If you're buying off craigslist, I'm assuming it's local. Insist on putting your own sim in and testing the phone before purchasing. How much are they asking for it?
