[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vulf:
Basically here's what happened.

I made a nandroid back up after root. I had playing around with root for a few days. I then decided to flash Cyanogen 6.1.2 on my EVO and that worked fine. Then I updated my Clockwork mod, I did not know it would mess with my nandroid backups. I then wanted to flash the google apps on my phone but renamed the rom like an idiot. Now it is in a boot loop. Help.. I just got this phone and if my parents find out I ****ed it up.. *sigh*

Would flashing a rom again fix this?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrb123:
If you just want to get it back to a working cyanogen rom:

Download the rom zip and gapps zip on a computer.

Then pull the battery to stop the boot loop, put it back in, boot to recovery by holding volume-down and power.

Connect your USB cable between the computer and phone, choose mount USB from the recovery.

On the computer, drag the two zip files to the root of the SD card.

Unmount USB from the phones recovery menu, unplug usb cable, flash the cyanogen zip and then the gapps zip, reboot.

Or, instead of cyanogen and gapps you can just flash a stock rooted rom, a sense rom, or whatever.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrb123:
Or, if you can't mount the phone over USB, take the micro sdcard out of the phone and get a microsd to sd adaptor card (comes with most microsd cards) and put it in a computer then back into your phone to get the right rom onto the phone.

You should be fine, except you probably wont have old text messages and apps, you'll have to re-download stuff.

Also if you just renamed the rom zips, forget re-downloading anything and just get the files visible (USB mount or sdcard in PC) and rename them back.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrb123:
Did you unmount your sdcard before flashing? Why don't you try to download and flash a different rom just to get the phone to boot?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrb123:
Flash Amon RA recovery following the bootloader method very carefully (read, take your time, its not that hard) in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=705026

Then wipe cache, dalvik cache.

wipe data / factory reset if you don't mind basically starting over as if your phone is brand new (will not lose root, just meaning you'll need to log into your google account).

Flash rom of your choice
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vulf:
Thank you SO MUCH! And to think I had some sort of unfounded bias towards Amon RA.. *sigh* you saved me a heart attack. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrb123:
You're welcome! Not claiming credit but I know how frightening it can be when your phone wont boot.

I don't really know the history of the different recoveries, but Amon RA has been around for a while and definitely puts out quality work. I gladly boot into recovery to manage things with Amon RA instead of using Clockwork, although I guess that app lets you flash a version (old) of Amon RA.

These phones are pretty hard to brick if you ask me - as long as you have a computer and USB cable you're okay most of the time. It never hurts to keep a backup of various roms/recoveries/radios/nandroids on your sdcard and on a computer.

It's also a good idea to have a PC36IMG.zip of an entire stock rom/radio/etc. (available somewhere in the dev section) to be able to load from HTC sync or through bootloader if all else fails.

Glad your phone is booting again! You should do a nandroid with amon ra and navigate through the nandroid folder until you find wimax.img and save that in a separate location, because that's not recoverable or reset-able if it (wimax rsa keys) are lost.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrb123:
P.S. rename that amon RA recovery zip (pc36img.zip) back to its original name to prevent it from asking if you want to flash it every time you boot into bootloader (volume down and power). A file named Pc36img.zip is checked for every time you enter the bootloader, so just rename it to pc36img-amonra.zip

Hi,

Could someone point me in the right direction for a tutorial/howto for backing up the ROM off mytouch 4G? I am sure the ROM file is already floating around the web, but I am actually interested in learning how to do this myself. Obviously, I am a newbie, so please be gentle! :-)

Excuse me... Titanium Backup
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmwils3:
Well, the easiest way is to flash clockwork recovery and do a nandroid backup from within there.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Note, you must be rooted for this, but it is definitely best. TitaniumBackup will restore apps/setting if you can successfully boot all the way. A nandroid made via CW Recovery or on your own via ADB will let you recover from anything, as long as you can still boot to recovery. IE: bad flash, boot loop, bad ROM in general, "accidentally" deleting critical system apks and breaking your ROM, etc.

Here's the link to the stock 2.2.1 T-Mo image you can also flash to do a full factory restore: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=901477
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h22aboi:
1. Root phone. (there are several threads out there on xda).

(this one is nice easy for noobs http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=858021)

2. Flash clockwork recovery. (again, there are threads out there on xda.)

3. Power down phone. Power + volume down. When it boots, go down to "recovery".

4. You will boot into a black with green screen clockwork page. Go to backup/restore.

5. Click backup.

6. You are done. IF you want to go back to stock, restore with that ROM and do a factory reset. You will go back to the original mytouch 4g start session (with the vidoes, setup, etc...)

Although you'd still have s=off....
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r2d-two:
Thanks for all the replies!

I managed to root the phone using the procedure described in the thread here on XDA and made the backup using clockwork (the screen with the orange text).

Again, thx!

Hey guys! I was wondering if you could straighten something out for me. I have backed up my phone using xRecovery.

However, I also have everything backed up on Titanium Backup.

Do I need to bother backing up on Titanium if I already have everything backed up on xRecovery?

I hate wasting space on my sd card

hi guys, i live in a 4G area but i really dont use 4g since everywhere i go i got internet and i don tether (for now) so i decided to go AOSP and i got the miui rom, but it looks that i dont get 3G only shows 1X i tried cyanogen and still the same, then i went into another ROM (azrael and mikfroyo) and it shows 3G but i get the same crappy speeds as in the aosp roms showing 1X, 4kbps i tried different radio/combinations and still nothing, any idea... pls i really need to get this fixed,. thanks

[EVO 4G General] dxtyle:
done and still nothing :S
[EVO 4G General] billyapd21:
all of the sense roms only show 3G never 1x even if you are on 1x. So basically when you are running a sense rom and you are showing crappy speeds you are actually on 1x. The ASOP roms show what network you are actually on. Basically you are in a 1x area and that's why you are getting crappy speeds. Hope this helps. This has been a problem for a long time.
[EVO 4G General] dxtyle:
i think thats phone related since all my co-workers have evo`s and their 3G give em really good speeds, just my phone is the retard one :S
[HD2 General] roteplex:
After spending a long time with my HD2 I noticed the biggest gripe I had with Android in general was video playback. I went ahead and tested all the available video players and compared them to good old coreplayer and I was not at the least impressed.

All I want is for my phone to be able to play ANY video encoded with a resolution of 480p or lower (at understandable bitrates) and at perfect image quality and no lag. On Coreplayer using WinMo, this feat is easily attainable, all 480p AVC and XVID files play like butter regardless of their encoding specs using directdraw. There is no NEON or dedicated HW support on this player yet I am extremely impressed.

The stock android player can even play 720p files with HW support but they have be encoded in a very specific way, and encoding takes too much and decreases quality, thats why I prefer native support for varying formats. When switching over to android I expected one player to atleast perform on the same level as Coreplayer and I am disappointed beyond belief.

Here are my comments.

Act 1 Video Player - 1/10

-Cant play Xvid/Mkv Stock is better.

arcMedia - 2/10

-Serious distortions on AVI, and 480p AVC video. Coreplayer WM 6.5.5 is better.

Meridian Media Player - 1/10

-Inproper codec support.

QQPlayer 3/10

-Cannot decode AVC properly, minor distortions occur during XVID playback, Coreplayer still superior. XVID: Distoritons are clear, however, no grainy playback, occasional slowdowns. Too bugy for personal use.

Rockplayer - 5/10

-Inadequate AVC decoder, XVID playback has minimal distortions, watchable. Coreplayer for WM still quite a bit better

VPlayer - 4/10

-Rouphly the same AVC performance as Rockplayer, however, Rockplayer has a better XVID decoder. Signifincantly worse than Coreplayer for WM.

YXPlayer - 1/10

-Utter crap, no decent decoders, and horrible AVI playback.

Vital Player - 4/10

-Simmilar AVC and XVID performance to Rockplayer. XVID playback had small distortions and was not as clear as Rockplayer. Watchable. Coreplayer, however was still very much superior in both 480p AVC and AVI files.

How can all the latest players on a modern OS fall so horribly short of an aging video player in a deceased platform. I truly dont get this. I also own a Samsung Captivate but do not use it nearly as often as the HD2, the Galaxy S is equipped with a phenomenal video player that basically plays every thing. I dont expect this from 3rd party players, but why cant I get WinMo video performance on Android????? does anyone know of an alternative, besides waiting another year for coreplayer to be released for android; What do you guys think??

FYI: These are my Coreplayer settings in full.

[HD2 General] kenneth_kagai:
I hear you man...

Agreed. As a current HD2 owner (and prior owner of a Touch pro2), I'm a big WinMo fan and Coreplayer is also my video player of choice - hands down one of the best.

I recently got a NookColor as a gift, and it happens to be my first Android device, so i went ahead and rooted it - figured i might as well make a full-fledged Android tablet out of it that I can do other things on when i'm tired of reading by ebooks. One of my biggest pastimes is catching up on tv-shows I've downloaded - and most happen to be avi files.

I cant for the life of me find a decent Video Player for Android either - i've tried VPlayer, Act 1 (doesnt play avi's - but pretty decent on mp4s - but i'm not going thru the hassle of converting my videos to mp4 - I shouldnt have to!) and a host of others too - some of which you have mentioned.

Please post a reply to this thread if you find a decent player (I dont mind forking out a few bucks on the market for one) - but as my first experience on Android, I'm utterly disappointed by the lack of a decent video player too!
[HD2 General] Kailkti:
True true. I heard the coreplayer team is trying to port coreplayer to android. So that might be good.

However alot of the new phones are coming out with more codec support so it may make 3rd party video players obsolete or near obsolete in due time.

Eg your captivate, it plays every video file thrown at it, if not, most.
[HD2 General] saurabh88:
i think ur right
[HD2 General] forcedv:
The only reason I got the Galaxy S was because of it ability to playback virtually anything inc. 720p MKV with TV out.

But just because it can play a video file does not make it great because the stock video player is so basic :

No slow mo

No MKV subtitle support

No A/B repeat

No pinch to zoom

You get the idea.

Third party video players will always be required because the stock players lack cool functions that Coreplayer had years ago.

The Coreplayer teams keep making false claims about releasing an Android or iPhone version. I doubt it will happen in my lifetime.
[HD2 General] firstime911:
Me too, i waiting for coreplayer, i still keep my HD2 for video playback
[HD2 General] smeddy:
I survive with QQPlayer, with Mobo Player as a second choice, but I agree with your argument
[HD2 General] Kailkti:
Well for anyone, mobo player seems really good.
[HD2 General] neubody:
I use android on the HD2 and rockplayer has played mp4/avi/mkv/etc all fine.
[HD2 General] aphivis:
This is the only reason why I'm still stuck on WM6.5 on HD2.

All android video players suck harder than a collapsed star.

Can't find any player that plays .flv, has manageable playlist, can shuffle, and smooth playback. There's nothing half good as WM CorePlayer.

I've heard that there is CorePlayer for Android (OEM license) But there's no market/consumer version.

tips and tricks

Here is some advice for the game.

1) When the enemies land on the ground they move towards you. So if you havent fired a shot move quickly out the way.

2) When your rookie status changes to killer the enemies move faster. Sometimes fire shots inbetween moving back and forth.

3) Try to look for patterns in the enemy movements , it helps later on when they are comming faster.

If you got any more questions just post and I will answer. Try to get the highest rank possible!!!

Cognition v3.04 + Speedmod latest version + JL3 modem

Simply put: amazing. Several things are worthy of note. First, scrolling and general responsiveness of the speedmod kernel with 500hz is buttery smooth. It also has several tweaks you can enable to maximize battery life. But, the greatest difference came with the JL3 modem. Everything was instantly snappier. GPS locked in 4 seconds flat (I kid you not), and soon had 12 locked satellites. I had never before seen a lock with 5m accuracy, and it held it like a champ. Second, DL/UL speeds went through the roof. Normally I'd see 1.5Mb D and .3 Mb up. Now I see 3.5 Mbit down and 1.4 Mbit down. Couldn't be happier. But it gets better. The battery voltage before showed 3950 millivolts. Now it's down to 3750 mV.

Better GPS, speed, internet and battery life? Awesome.

Have you tried to make a phone call? I had the same setup and thought I was on cloud 9...

Gonna give it a couple days to see if it pans out
[Captivate General] nybmx:
I use Darkys rom but find that for my area JK4 has been the best so far as well. With JL3 it switches to the 1900 band frequently and in my house that gets worse reception so my battery drains fairly quickly.

As for the OP I know how you feel. Ever since I flashed an earlier version of Darky's I haven't looked back. It's been the best rom I've tried out of all of them. Despite being a complete flashing addict I've hung up the cable for the time being as I'm more than satisfied with my current set up.
[Captivate General] vunuts:
Totally off topic, but that has to be THE BEST quote I have seen on this forum!

Back on topic, best combo and my current configuration is Perception 8 with Setiron's kernel. Just flashing the rom and the kernel gives me all working features that I need, plus speed and stability. And after I go through and take out all the apps that I don't use and incorporate all my necessary apps, I get around 54 hours of battery life before I need to throw it on the charger. That's with my normal everyday use consisting of mass amounts of texting, a few phone calls, browsing the web, and having 3 widgets running. All my syncing is set for 1 hour intervals, except for weather which is set for every half hour.

Not saying it will work the same for you, but it hasn't let me down at all, and it's been my daily driver for about 2 months.
