[HTC Inspire 4G] sliderocket22:
Out of curiousity, I'm trying to help a friend downgrade and root his Inspire. He has the HSUPA update and the enable unknown sources update from AT&T. I can't get Bubby's tool or the Hack Kit to work, so I'm wondering if his HBOOT has been updated to a point where the exploit doesn't work. Does this downgrade the HBOOT to factory as well, and does it work if he's upgraded?
[HTC Inspire 4G] trapzz:
is this stock rom compatible for tmobile?
[HTC Inspire 4G] elmanortega:
whaaat?

your device will be campatible with any company as long as you unlock the sim locker
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Not quite "any company" but certainly most GSM carriers (there are a few oddballs out there that just plain won't work). Of course, T-Mo uses a different frequency band than AT$T so you won't get anything but Edge data (2G).
[HTC Inspire 4G] trapzz:
so youre saying that this rom will work on tmobile and i can make calls.. but i wont be able to use 4g, right?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Correct. No 3G either. Only Edge.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
There's so much info in here it can be hard to take it all in. Many posters make it sound like flashing a ROM is such an easy thing to do, but I keep seeing posts from those who run into one problem or another after the process. Could someone please provide a list of anything and everything that should be done BEFORE flashing to prevent any issues with the phone? Things like writing down Market IDs and where to find it, removing any apps that might conflict, changing any setting that might cause a problem, writing down any settings that get erased by flashing...anything that needs to be considered before flashing a ROM. Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridethelight:
The most important thing is backups (contacts, apps, etc...) Titanium Backup is the best at it, and really worth buying the pro version.

From what I've read market IDs are arbitrary and dont really do much.

Just make sure you watch videos of what you want to do at least 2 times before starting anything.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokestack76:
Well main thing with issues is try stock and reflash. If you prefer not to...... in recovery do a wipe cache/factory reset. Then wipe cache partition. Then wipe delvic cache. Should be golden:-) if not reflash :-)

My checklist

My Pre-Rom flash Backups checklist:

I do these activities in the late night, mostly on weekends as the phone goes off coverage in a few of those long running steps.

These can take long depending on your phone/laptop's horsepower.

My phone is already rooted. Some steps will not apply to not yet rooted phone. So one will need to first root it.

1. 2 separate full Nandroid BKPs; I use TWRP; Keep them both in Laptop and external HD.

2. Firefox tabs sync to Firefox on Laptop (Do something similar to other browsers.)

3. Contacts, Swype etc syncs, Whatsapp photos etc. Google contacts sync issues can be first fixed using 'Contacts sync fix' app.

Move 2-step verification code generator to a new device or have a copy of the backup codes ready for restoring into the new ROM.

4. ROM Tool Box 'backup phone data'

5. TIBU XML backup basic phone data like Call logs, SMS, contacts, settings. Same as RTB above.

6. TIBU full app backups (user app+data, System apps)

7. RTB full app backups (user app+data, System apps)

8. creating update.zip using RTB ZipMe or similar app

9. Finally, Internal/External card backups. Make sure they contain any/all of the above backups if done there.

(I do this with a few folders at a time, instead of bulk, all or none approach that mostly fails especially with the internal card which tends to be slowly copied from)

I sometimes send some of the smaller backups like XMLs to the cloud for ease of use later.

10. Everything above properly in place, I go ahead with the data wipes.
[Nexus One Android Development] anthortic:
This guide is for people who want root but want to keep their stock rom, not breaking the warranty, unlocking bootloader etc.

A proud ubuntu user, I am writing this in a new thread purely because the manual rageagainstthecage method and SuperOneClick method did not not work for me, see link to my conclusion below if you care ;)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11305312&postcount=2526

What did work however was via adb shell using psneuter :D and its fairly simple if you follow the following commands.

This guide assumes you know how to get access to the shell via adb, if you dont then search elsewhere.

OK lets get to business!

1.

Download the attached nexus_one_softroot.tar from the bottom of this post and extract contents to the same folder as adb

2.

Open up your terminal, cd to the same folder as adb and the extracted files

3.

Enter the following commands:

sudo ./adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/psneuter
sudo ./adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
sudo ./adb push su /data/local/tmp/su
sudo ./adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
sudo ./adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
sudo ./adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/su
sudo ./adb shell

After this you should see only a $ which tells us that we at the android command line with user privileges only, lets continue

$ cd /data/local/tmp
$ ls
busybox
su
psneuter
$ ./psneuter
property service neutered.
killing adbd. (should restart in a second or two)

You will now be kicked out of android shell, lets go back in

sudo ./adb shell

After this you should see only a # which tells us that we root baby! If you want to double check issue this command

# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)

Lets continue on. From this point we will install busybox and su which will make root permanent

# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cd /data/local/tmp
# ./busybox cp busybox /system/bin
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
# busybox cp su /system/bin
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
# exit

For some reason I sometimes have to enter exit twice to leave the android shell. Again, re-access the android shell

sudo ./adb shell

Now in the android shell we can finish up

# su
# mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# exit
# exit

Lastly we must install Superuser, and I did this from the android market so I knew its the latest version, its simple to get, less command input etc.

Now you have root! I hope this was simple enough to follow, I have not really written a guide before but from lots of searching I just could not find a solution for my Nexus One 2.2.1 FRG83D, especially any guide that uses psneuter.

Anyway, glad to contribute :D

Just a heads up bud, try not to promote business on the forum. I share all information just like the devs share their work for free on xda.

Please Help I installed a custum ROM and now I am stuck in a loop a skull comes up and droid and it continues till the battery is dies. I have tried to factory reset and nothing the only way to turn it off is to remove the battery can someone please Help
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kalala:
If the ROM is what's causing the problem, doing a factory reset won't change anything; it'll stil keep the same ROM in place. What you might want to do is download a more popular ROM, like a CM7 nightly, put it on your microSD card (using another phone or a microSD adapter, of course) and boot into recovery and flash that.

If that doesn't work, I dunno then. I got a bootloop the other day after using ROM Manager to flash a new kernel. Turns out it was the kernel because after a factory reset, it booted up fine. So I just chose another kernel and it's all good now.

You just might have a screwy ROM. Try reflashing it if you can. What was the custom ROM, btw?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kinglozzer:
Yeah I'd agree with the above; install another ROM and make sure to wipe cache and dalvik and if it still doesn't work wipe data as well. Note that wiping data will wipe pretty-much everything on your phones memory (SMS messages, contacts, accounts etc)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] butcher211:

Do you have a Droid or a Milestone? If you have a Milestone, which country is the device from?

This is what I did to fix the problem...

- Flashed UK 2.1 SBF file

- Flashed Vulnerability Recovery

- Rooted the phone

- Installed and booted into OpenRecovery

- Installed 15.01.2011 0.06-11.01.15 version (phone booted fine)

- Rebooted into OpenRecovery > Wiped Dalvik Cache

- Applied 28.01.2011 0.07-11.01.28 version

One more thing, you may need to update and/or change your baseband files.

I hope this helps.

I haven't seen a way to install HTC Locations, aside from flashing a stock ROM (there are instructions on "debranding" the Bell DZ in the Development subforum), or a custom ROM, like Virtuous.

From what I understand, Locations is not free. It comes with a 30-day trial, after which you need to pay a monthly fee or buy a lifetime license. Plus, I would verify that it even works in your location before going through the whole process of flashing a ROM, if that is your only reason for flashing.

Okay, so I was thinking about getting the EVO shift because I miss my rant but I refuse to get an Epic. Also, I realize I don't use the FFC or the kickstand. I love the camera and idk whether the evo shift has a worse or better one. I also want a faster device with better battery because no matter how hard I try I can't get good battery on the evo. I can't seem to get used to the size in my pocket but it would be cool if I had a leather case.

Anyway I just would like some insight on which is the better choice for me. I'm confused at how shift is faster w/less ram?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klquicksall:
Well the shift has a second generation snapdragon processor. It's more efficient. That's why its faster. Well if you like a slide out key board the shift will be perfect for you.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Well to your first question, the shift was a worse camera, 5MP compared tot he regular 8MP. The shift IS the evo...just a smaller screen, lesser camera, and an actual keyboard.

my dad has had the phone for about two weeks and loves it. He has stated many times that he has never been happier. Though that is coming from a samsung moment. As far as root, they have released it, but it is very hard to do unless your good with rooting. My dad's phone doesn't even need the root because his phone is lightning fast and has very good battery life, about two full days on a charge. After all of that still love my evo, and the great developers for the evo. But if you want the keyboard. I would get the Shift, it just makes sense!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacoballen22:
So I am comparing this experience to the one I had with psp. The fatter one had more mods but wasn't as fast. The slim was faster and smaller with better battery.
