Follow these threads in this order,

1) GTab recovery firmware, flash latest -- This will put you completely back to stock

2) TnT Stock Enhancement Pack, flash latest -- Flash TnT version 3.1.4b

That should get you to Viewsonic's latest firmware with some xda flavored enhancements, I'm not sure if you can receive official OTA updates from Viewsonic with the enhancement pack. I've never used stock for more than 10 or so minutes in Nov last year.:)
[G Tablet General] corybucher:
Thank you both, most appreciated.
[G Tablet General] atakapa:
You could always use the nvflash method tekrhino posted first then flash the update I linked to (first link) to get you to a completely updated stock GTab. Rooting can be accomplished via oneclickroot or some similar method.

Hey guys i've got a problem i've just updated my kernel and now my phone is frozen and will not turn on please help. I've tried different kernels and nothing seems to work, i'm a complete noob at all of this, i'm not sure if i have bricked the phone as i am able to still get into dowload mode but i dont know how to restore it to standard again, or anyone can help me move on as i want to flash it with darky's rom

thanks

enter in download mode, and you should repartition and flash stock rom. you have there all the necesary steps.

I dl and odin'd EB01 this afternoon. I had the "opportunity" to pull the battery and when it booted their was a little box in the left bottom screen that said Safe Mode. Anyone ever seen this before on the epic?

[Epic 4G General] TheDub:
I got a random reboot earlier this afternoon on DK28 and saw this.. think it's a automatic safety put into Froyo (whether by Google or Sprint is unclear) that lets you remove a problematic app if it's causing the phone to bootloop.. notice how it doesn't let you run anything but the stock apps in that mode.

I'm sure there is a special way into it as well so Sprint doesn't have to refurb every phone that installs a bad app... a technician can just boot into safe mode, delete the bad app. Back to normal..

That's only my theory...

After a few hours of staring at a black screen with some very tiny text at the top I decided to update my radio. I had a stock ROM on the HD2 so the radio version was about 2.08, I think.

Having flashed Radio 2.15.50.14 I more or less instanly had a loading screen with a nice animated Andriod, and a few minutes later was booted into Andriod.

So, make sure your Radio is fairly up to date!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cstar817:
so I bought this MyTouch 4g from this guy at my job. He rooted and messed up some things (deleted important files i guess), and as I'm using the phone I get random force closes on certain applications. Turning on the phone takes forever, Loading pop up stays up for about 5 minutes before the homescreen is actually completely loaded. Sense Widgets are gone, when I try to load them, htc.RosieUtility.com has to force close. Email app force closes as well. When I try to recovery boot (Volume + Power), I get a ClockWorkMod screen.. which I am 98% sure is not stock.

He admitted himself he messed it up, so I bought it pretty cheap from him , but is there any way to reset EVERYTHING to factory settings, even though he deleted some things when he rooted and got into the system/app?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OrganizedFellow:
I could be wrong but try:

Home > Menu > Settings > Factory Data Reset

Unless you are comfortable with flashing a new ROM to the device.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cjward23:
Your right in thinking clockworkmod is nothing to with stock. But this is good. If he has messed up by deleting important apps and files the easiest way to solve this is to flash a new rom. Head over to the my touch 4g forums find a rom you like the look of download it to your memory card. Boot in to recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, install zip from sdcard and flash your new rom. This should solve all your problems and you will have a clean slate to start from.

I wouldnt worry about unrooting, i have heard of people Paying more for second hand phones that have been rooted. How ever if you did want to take it back to stock im sure there will be a guide in the my touch 4g forums

So I was able to get to the stock 2.2 Froyo leak ROM which has been okay all things considered, but I want to try some custom ROMs! I can't use Odin, and Heimdall always asks for more files than are included with Odin packages to flash back to stock...

I wish I could avoid the flashing back to stock process altogether, but ROM Manager always says it can't validate or something when I try and flash from recovery mode from the rom manager application.

If anyone could give me a basic run-through I would greatly appreciate it.

Get VMWare Fusion and find an old XP install someplace. Yes, it seems the "long way" to do it, as it would be nice if we could just use Odin on our Macs, but I have found that having a virtual windows XP environment on my Mac makes life easier and gives me access to windoze stuff when I need it. When I don't need it, windows XP is off and not using any system resources.

The other cool thing about VMWare fusion is you can have multiple virtual installs. Win XP, Win 7, Linux, etc. Again, they don't use any system resources when you are not using them, but it sure is handy to have around!
[Captivate General] a.vandelay:
heimdall works great on os x. i've used the JH- and JF- firmwares without issue. other than that you can use one-click root on os x, and rom manager for everything else.

edit: are you using --repartition with heimdall? don't. the heimdall help shows two cases. with --repartition a lot of things aren't optional. the second usage lets you flash whatever you want, e.g. just a modem, just a kernel, etc.

So I seem to have a messaging problem I cannot figure out. I can't pinpoint exactly when it started happening but it was around the time I installed 7 RC 1 or nightly 38...

I only get my messages in bunches some time after they are sent. Its like after a while multiple texts get pushed through, just not when they were sent from the person. Sometimes i get multiple texts in the wrong order. I've also figured out the only way to get the texts to come through is when i call someone. Once i call someone, multiple texts push through.....really strange

Its like the phone has to actively access the network before is receives text messages...

I have no clue what this could be, any suggestions

EDIT: This will also work if you are trying to update to EC05.

For those of you that are having issues with updating to EB13 because of one click root deleting the Asphalt Demo, I have found a solution. I had the same problem. When trying to update via CWM I would get an error message saying the Asphalt demo was missing from the system apps folder.

To get around this, you'll need root access the preloaded asphalt demo, and root explorer.

1) Download the asphalt demo pulled from the stock D18 rom.

http://www.fileserve.com/file/WSta8et

2) Place the file onto your sd card.

3) open root explorer, press the "Mount R/W"

4) find the asphalt file, long press and hit copy.

5) use the back key and find the system folder.

6) within the system folder, find the app folder.

7) once inside the app folder, press the paste button.

8) reboot into CWM

9) now retry updating with your update.zip via clockworkmod and enjoy froyo!

Note: Updating does remove OneClickRoot so you will need to reinstall after updating. Hope this helps everyone!

If you get errors regarding the playlogo while trying to update in cwm, reboot and remove the oneclickroot after all these steps. here is the uninstaller noobnl and firon provided: http://firon.net/xda/one.click.stock.flasher.&.root.uninstaller-di18.zip

[Epic 4G General] richse:
Or you could just take the commands that remove asphalt out of the the run.bat in the oneclickroot. Here's the file I used, the only change is that the two game apks that it removed are now left in place. Just unzip the file over top of the run.bat in the original one click. Hope it helps.
[Epic 4G General] CapsLockKey:
I never bothered to look before I rooted, but did EB13 come with Asphalt again? I figured it was replaced with the "Play HD games" one.
[Epic 4G General] klownin816:
It doesn't sound like you used the one click root method, as you need a computer to do this. Do you remember how you rooted? What exact error are you receiving when updating the zip file?
[Epic 4G General] klownin816:
So this method would revert all changes from the one click root and reinstall the asphalt demo to the system apps folder? If so, that's awesome!
[Epic 4G General] klownin816:
You know... I didn't bother to look either lol
[Epic 4G General] richse:
No it wont reinstall them but if you odin to DI18 and then use the run.bat i posted instead of the one that comes with the one click root then it will not remove them.

You may be able to push the file to the system app folder through your computer and adb, but I'm not sure how to do that. Maybe someone with more experience can help.

Unless there is another app that allows you to paste files into the system folder for free. I only know of root explorer that does this.

Even though you have the folder on your sd card, you still still need the actual apk within the system app folder. I tried downloading the demo and that won't work.

[Epic 4G General] dwallersv:
IMO, it's really, really, really bad that the OCR scripts remove these apps.

I don't want them there either, but that should be up to the individual owner. Once rooted, it's trivial to delete these files either with adb, or with a local terminal app like connectbot.

At the very least, the batch script should pull them onto the PC via adb before deleting them on the phone, maybe creating a "RemovedApps" directory and archiving them there.

Even better would be to prompt before removing them, allowing the user to make the decision.

I think I'll add this little bit of logic to the scripts for both 2.5 and 3.0, and post them in the respective threads.

[GT540 Optimus General] Dr.Alani:
I am having some trouble with the 2.3.2 by Mur4ik. The problem is when I closed an application like K-9 Mail of Facebook or whatever, it takes about 20 seconds to reload the android home screen. During that time I get only the wallpaper and I have to wait to load the shortcuts and widgets.

Another symptom is when I move from and application to another without closing the first one, and then I go back to the first one through long press on home button, I find the application restarting.

For example if I am at the opera browser and I press home and open K-9 mail or a notebook app, and then long-press the home button and choose opera I find the page gone and it says loading, just like starting the app all over again.

This happens with all apps not only the browser.

Is this because the memory is simply not enough so the phone kills everything not currently active?

or is it a bug in the OS that needs to be looked into?
