It is not a good idea to use that battery, even if you manage to get it completely dried out again. If moisture did get into it at all, even once removed the water may have allowed some of the dielectric materials inside to migrate from one plate to another. This can cause shorting between the cells which at best will keep the battery from effectively powering your phone. At the worst it will heat up, melt a bit then probably explode.

Batteries are cheap, certainly cheaper than a face transplant :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agreen1985:
im using Rom Kitchen to build my first ROM. I would like to remove sense ui and use launcher pro instead. I cant find the sense ui app. How do i get rid of it?

THanks!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eVoKINGS:
Just put launcher pro in system apps and after boot press home button launcher pro should be available

Can't have sense and launcher pro at the same time

Or launcher of your choice and use calkulins remove sense zip

If sense UI is removed it breaks a lot of phone functions so think twice

Hi guys:

I have rooted my phone today using SuperOneClick root. Then I have installed ROM Manager, and installed Clockwork Recovery Mod 3.0.0.5. I have being reflashing Clockwork and recovery menu via ROM Manager because when I turn off my phone and turn it up (holding up power on and vol down button) and press to go to Recovery then appears the error image that is like an Android logo, cellphone and a yellow caution sign.

¿Can you guys help me? ¿What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
That's the stock recovery. If you still have a stock rom, it will restore stock recovery unless you delete the following files:

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh

/system/recovery-from-boot.p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omarpr:
I don't understand.

I have installed to it CM7 last build. And is running without any problems, but I am scared that if I have some problem with the OS and I can't boot to recovery.

It has Clockwork Recovery Mod but I can access it unless I use ROM Manager to start it.

¿I need to delete those 2 files and It will be fixed?

Thanks!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
That is definitely the stock recovery (Android with an exclamation in a triangle).

If you have CM7 installed, I've no idea how you got the stock recovery, but re-flashing another recovery should fix it. The two files I mentioned aren't included in CM7, so that's not the problem...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricky9237:
Agree. That's the stock recovery. Sometimes you need to apply the new recovery twice under rom manager. I did have similar experience. Install a custom recovery again. I beg it will be fine next time. Hope this help.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ozymandias88:
When I first rooted using a one click method my custom recovery would only stick for one boot. On the xda nexus one wiki there's instructions on how to install a recovery after one click root and get it to stick.

Hope this helps!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwilli73:
Alright. I'm new to the vibrant community so my apologies in advance for not knowing what I'm doing. I just rooted and I have su access and I have CWR installed. I however can't get the rom manager custom recovery to load when I reboot. What do I need to do? I'm running the 2.2 update from T-Mobile. A simpleton's guide would be nice but I'm just looking for any help I can get. Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Hold down both the up & down volume controls, then hold the power button down until you see the vibrant screen. That should do it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vibrantnew-b:
Let me rephrase that, keep holding the up & down volume controls until you see cwr come up. Your only releasing the power button when you see the vibrant screen. Hope that helps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwilli73:
Already tried that. It boots into android recovery...not clockwork. Its android recovery version 3e if that helps any
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcghee1973:
You need the modded 3e recovery in the dev section for cwr
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcpetterson:
Select reinstall packeges a few times, and/or select reboot into cwr from rom manager
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwilli73:
i tried using the modded 3e recovery and i still don't know what I did wrong...should i just look for a way to downgrade to 2.1 and try redoing this the easier way?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
when your on recovery press reinstall packages

it will reboot to recovery again

click reinstall packages

now your in a green text recovery.

ta-daa?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] All~G1:
Stupid question, but did you enter RM and select to flash a version of CWR? Once it flashes, can you enter CWR via RM?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jwilli73:
Yes I did flash certain. I'm going to try again

Can't wait to root it when I get it
[HTC Inspire 4G] mafiaboy01:
Can't wait for some custom kernels to fix the sound.
[HTC Inspire 4G] harlenm:
Ok, thats not in English! Wish this was as simple as jailbreaking an iPhone. Plug into computer, run app, install cydia, voilà!
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
Forgive my newbie question. Since this is just root.. Do we still have to use the side load wonder machine to get the app on in the first place? Rooting just allows us to do all the good stuff but att restrictions are still in place with out a custom rom?
[HTC Inspire 4G] luisbm10:
Can't downgrade rom

Can't downgrade. When trying to downgrade the rom I get to HBOOT but its says "Model ID incorrect! Update fail!" Am I doing something wrong?

Will me rooting it and changing the radio allow me to use a tmobile sim card and if not do you have a way to unlock it?

I F'ing LOVE YOU
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
Attn1,

First of all many thanks for the hack kit, I knew it was possible and you made it happen.

Hoping you can also post directions on how to put the Inspire 4G back to stock in case we return our unit for whatever reason, mine would only be for a hardware defect.

Thanks again!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] magnumforce2006:
This is probably a stupid question (but I'm new to rooting and such), but can you still use an sd card for data storage after utilizing it as a gold card?
[HTC Inspire 4G] tpbklake:
Yes, absolutely.
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
I read in some gold card guide that while you could do that, it's better if you don't. I don't remember the reasoning though.
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
I quickly read through those instructions. I believe you need an emulator on your phone and I'm assuming there isn't one by default. Any suggestions?
[HTC Inspire 4G] milleirish:
I am confused right now, what is the gold card way everyone is talking about? When I rooted my Captivate(my first Android phone). I just used the odin3 one click root. Will this phone have that?
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
Right click link open in new window
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
So is there a way to to go back to stock?
[HTC Inspire 4G] laxwillsch:
I think that the hardest part was getting the gold card to work so if anyone is stuck at the gold card part I used the Samsung stock card that came with it. Formatted to fat 32 then used gold card helper to get mmc2 number plugged it in the site, used the goldcard img in the hex editor, edited, and then all was well. Hope this helps anyone that's stuck. Also hop on the irc while it doing it. So of the commands need A little tweaking. Like an added sh if your on a mac.

Also anyone know how to improve the sound quality on in call running the eu rom? Besides that I am loving this thanks attn1!
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
To improve the call quality you need to flash the radio from the original Rom included in the kit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
Thank you but after seeing how to do it I guess I will have to wait or just live with the phone the way it is, I am not well versed enough to use the command prompt and since it takes that to do it I guess I am out of luck. Thank you anyway.:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] radcpuman:
What is wrong if I get "No Image" when the HBoot process runs?
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
you need to re make your gold card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Rooted two Inspire 4G's with this method. Same Gold Card. Just a warning don't flash the gingerbread keyboards from the other rooting thread. I bricked my first Inspire that way.:mad:
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Ok guys can somebody help me out. I made a backup with clock work and when my phone restarted it had my old evo rom on it. Any ideas what do do?

I fixed it in recovery by doing a data factory reset/wipe partition/dalvik. Clockwork is sucking right now. I would not try to do anything with clockwork. Does anyone have a link to armon RA.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
for some reason the paste write option isnt available. Im starting to get annoyed.
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
Make sure you sd card is not on read only.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
created the gold card and now the hackerize-ace install-downgrade gives me hackerize ace not found
[HTC Inspire 4G] klquicksall:
I got that message but, I forgot to check usb debugging.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
Is the hack kit supposed to be on the SD card?
[HTC Inspire 4G] tpbklake:
No that hack kit should be on your PC and you are typing the commands in a command window on the PC in the directory where you unzipped the hack kit.
[HTC Inspire 4G] tpbklake:
In the command windows on your PC, you need to be sitting in the hack kit directory when you type those commands.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davwman:
I'm doing that and it still says hacker ace not found. This is driving me nuts!!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] tpbklake:
I suggest you go to the IRC chatroom to get some assistance:

[HTC Inspire 4G] DoubleTapZombies:
After running "sh hackerize-ace.sh install-downgrade" I get this in Hboot :

[HTC Inspire 4G] xboxhaxorz:
this mentions not to use if i already have s off, if i used a xtc clip on it, how would i root it now?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
If you are already s-off then you don't need to root. If you can not access recovery then just download Rom manager and flash your recovery through Rom manager. It's the first option.

Radio: 26.13.04.19

Rom: Bindroid RHD 2.3.5 v2.1

app for checking ril. RILInfos_1.1.apk
[HTC Inspire 4G] xboxhaxorz:
i tried using super user after i did s off and couldnt get any root required programs to work

it def says s off on the phone
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
Did you install busybox with the busybox installer the kit put in your app drawer? Many "root" apps require more than root.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ladiesgod:
Everytime I use the tool to install a radio, it says the install is successful then prompts me to quit. When the phone reboots with the new radio it just HANGS at the HTC white logo screen. AT this point I have to re install a ROM.

So I tried installing the radio through bootloader renaming it PD98IMG.zip and it doesn't even pick up on the radio. Any ideas???

Great tool by the way!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Pd98img files have to packed properly. They can be downloaded from the radio sticky

Radio: 26.13.04.19

Rom: Bindroid RHD 2.3.5 v2.1

app for checking ril. RILInfos_1.1.apk
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
if you have a stock rom and s-off, you can run the hack kit. You can't run it over a custom rom. But you colud just install CWM using one of the PD98IMG.zip flash methods.

No, rom manager requires root.
[HTC Inspire 4G] xboxhaxorz:
i did s off via xtc clip

installed super user

and busy box says no root access
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
I was assuming he was already rooted since he has s-off. But if no root access then yeah its a no go.

Radio: 26.13.04.19

Rom: Bindroid RHD 2.3.5 v2.1

app for checking ril. RILInfos_1.1.apk
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
you need a different version of superuser then.
[HTC Inspire 4G] iFalcon:
I'm pretty stumped. I have an Inspire and ran the Hack. All went fine then said downgrade failed for the radio portion.

Now it won't boot. Gets to the HTC screen on bootup and then dims out. Any ideas?
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
Your usb coms failed long before the radio upgrade failed. Fix them and rerun the hack kit from the dimmed out screen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] techlogik:
Probably a dumb question. But before running the hack kit...I didn't write down anything my phone said on the bootloader screen.

Anyway to tell what original version it had Gingerbread or Froyo etc from the factory? I've only had it about 2 weeks. But it could have been sitting for 6 months in a warehouse also...who knows?

My current bootloader says:

ACE PVT ENG S-OFF

HBOOT-0.85.2007 (PD9812000)

MICROP-0438

RADIO-26.13.04.19_M (I KNOW I FLASHED THIS)

eMMC-BOOT

Oct 11 2010.12:44:14

Basically I want to do a downgrade back to stock radio/rom and S-ON to do some WPA2 802.1x Wifi testing for issues in other roms, and want to see if the stock setup has the issue or not.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
Currently, hack kit only restores Inspires. You don't need to go to s-on to do what you want to do. You also should not try flashing a froyo hboot if your phone was shipped with Gingerbread.
[HTC Inspire 4G] techlogik:
Yes, I have an Inspire 4G.

How do I know which hboot it came with originally I guess is the question?

Thx
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
Your hboot is a gingerbread one. Froyo is 0.85.0024.
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
It doesn't matter. You can just flash the GB RUU, choose s-on, and it's stock since the GB RUU has been available for Froyo phones without ever hacking them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] techlogik:
Thank you.

Cool..Gingerbread it is. Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] tae_254:
Sorry for the stupid question. Im trying to root my inspire 4g using ubuntu and i've read the whole effen manual. when it comes to entering the pass key it says to click the link. when i click the link it says NICE TRY and thats it. Am i doing something wrong?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Joshp406:
You've gotta enter the passkey, simple as that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] xboxhaxorz:
same thing happened to me, it was because i didnt have the sd card inserted
[HTC Inspire 4G] Twiddler:
Just a hint...

I went 'round and 'round with this myself.

The manual isn't clear enough where the instructions are for the pass key. Here's what fixed it for me:

NOTEPAD

There... I didn't make it so anyone didn't have to read the manual, just gave them an idea of what to do when the link gives you "NICE TRY".
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
It actually states pretty clearly how to get the pass key if you read the entire manual. People act like having to fully read one page of instructions is making it hard. All I can say is if this process is hard for you then your gonna have a hell of a time playing around with roms.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
I agree. If someone has trouble with using this amazingly simple process then they have no business rooting.

I got your 10 char right here
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
Obviously.
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
Or if someone actually read what the manual said and wasn't a complete idiot they might refresh their browser and pick up the new link.

For the last time, if you can't figure out the pass key on your own then for the love of god go do something else.
[HTC Inspire 4G] techlogik:
I agree, but why even bother with a password? Then a password..then again...

Great tool though! Works like a charm!
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
The pass key is there to make sure people read the effen manual. That's all. If you had to support this tool, you would understand. The jams people get into from NOT reading it have been greatly reduced. In the end, it's there to help the user - even if it doesn't seem so.
[HTC Inspire 4G] flappjaxxx:
The instructions for this are quite clear. The instructions that instruct you to read the instructions make this tool easy as pie to use. Thanks for the contribution to the Inspire 4G community. You're not being a ****, you're being human. Laziness and the ability to assume one knows what they are doing without instruction can be very frustrating.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thatruth132:
thank you for responding like a normal person my issue is ...well i thought was a bad windows enviroment with all the other stuff i have on this pc so i switch to a clean pc that meet the requirements...for a good flash but when ever i get to the downgrading in the bootloader process it fails says bad imageno matter what i do i have tried redownloading everything but still a no go
[HTC Inspire 4G] Joshp406:
Hmm, I haven't had a problem like that, So I'll troubleshoot.

Did you disable your antivirus? 9 out of 10 times, it's usually that.

Maybe your SD card you used for a goldcard might have just been bad (been there, done that)

Besides that, I can't really think of anything else.
[HTC Inspire 4G] thatruth132:
i did try to switch to a high speed card i have , i removed my antivirus completely...i wonder if its just her devices i know my way around a downgrade or two i guess i might have to make my goldcard with a fresh sd

thank you for your help with that issue which i really wasnt looking for i was just wanted to state some issues i saw with guide i guess he got offensive
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
The mods are very aware of this thread. Now the instructions are very simple. Simple enough that I have been able to walk someone that has never modded a phone through doing this over the phone without one hangup. The manual tells you everything you need to know. Can't get much simpler then that
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
High speed? Any SDHC should be fast enough. If, for some unknown reason you have an ancient SD card, then yes, you probably need something recent, but the cards included with the phone are fine. Also, you aren't too clear on what you're doing, but it almost sounds like you're trying to manually root. The Ace Hack Kit does the downgrade and goldcard steps for you.

I'd normally say, come on into the IRC chat where we'll help you out, but I believe you may have overstepped your welcome there before even visiting. Having hung out there for the past few months and seen all manner of ****-ups and watching attn1 bend over backwards to fix them, sometimes taking multiple hours on a single person's problems, I have to say that your knee-jerk characterization of attn1 couldn't be more wrong. He's understandably grumpy, as he works his ass off to fix so many errors that could be avoided by reading and reading for comprehension, but he'll show you respect if you show him respect. It's that simple.

IRC channel: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#liberatedAria
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Ok first your swearing in the thread is unacceptable. Second as for your question of "where in your guide does it say if you have a issue with a sdcard try another"

You saw it right here "resolve your USB/Driver/SDCard issues" It is up to you to find to figure out those issues as has they are not issues with the kit but user issues. You say you have modded lots of phones and if that is the case then you should have very strong searchfu which would have pointed you to the IRC from the start and we wouldnt be having this problem, but we are.

Now I am gonna say this once and only once. Disrespect will not be tolerated in any form, shape or fashion. While The OP does go out of his way to help those that have issues. This is still a developers site and everything is a USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. This is not a support site and the OP has not obligation to even reply but yet he does. Time and time again People come to the thread offering no info that is need to help troubleshoot, like OS version, steps taken to troubleshoot before posting, ect but expecting it to be fixed.

I've cleaned up most of the malarkey and reopened the thread, there's still more to clean out. Please continue on topic. Many posts were deleted or moved.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Phateless:
I apologize if this has been covered.

I'm assuming the hack kit will wipe the sdcard during the process of making a goldcard?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Twiddler:
No, it will not.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Phateless:
Awesome, thank you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I'm gonna play devils advocate here because I'm no noob to the hack kit. Having rooted my Inspire with goldcard maker and v11 hack kit with ease, I did find the current version to be much more simplified when I rooted my wife's phone today. However, I did run into a passkey issue and it may be because I am using an old XP computer. There was never any link generated for me and when I clicked the link in the effen manual it took me nowheres. I had to manually hunt for the not so hidden file within the directory. Why did I hunt? Because I could see thru the smoke. Heh heh.
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
Read for comprehension. It doesn't say it's generated when you click on the effen manual. I am glad you got it sorted, however you did it. But really, there is no smoke.
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
I only require a pass key that shows you at least looked at the effen manual. Root access requires a password.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fernandezhjr:
I realize that, but I just tried it since it said that everytime the hack kit is run a link would be generated and I tried several times and it would not generate the cajun text link to the hidden file. I just tried for tryings sake within the manual to see if it would link me to the hidden file since at that point I had nothing. I knew there had to be a text file somewhere, so I just searched for it since I never got the link. I believe I have seen others post this issue and it is real rather you choose to believe it or not. When the link is not generated, a user is stuck, unless they know to go search for it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] attn1:
the link isn't generated then - it's always there.

Never said I didn't believe it. I just know it works right on PCs that work right. Did you try refreshing your browser? Did you try another browser - say Firefox or IE?

The hack kit gens the pass key when it starts - NOT the effen manual. This process works unless your PC is messed up, and then I dont care that it doesn't - in fact I am GLAD is doesn't - because you should not be doing this stuff with an env that has been so compromised. Fix your crap.
