[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidGnome:
I don't think you have anything to worry about if you were to go with Unrevoked3 today.

As with any sort of 'hacked' ROM or Root method, there are going to be issues when it was first created. That's what happened. New update came out for unrevoked, people jumped on it, and well... it wasn't perfect.

Unrevoked 3 has been in it's current form (3.32) for well over a month if I recall. If there were still issues, they would have pulled it off the site and there'd be big banners everywhere on thier site.

If you look carefully at the people who had WiMax problems, you'll note the date of those posts are typically about mid to late 2010. Those issues have been cleaned up.

I can tell you that in the last 3 months, i've rooted 3 Evos (2 with hardware 004 with the new bootloader, and one 003 with an older bootloader) and all 3 rooted perfectly fine. All 3 were able to then flash a custom ROM, Custom Recovery (I switched to Amon-Ra), and so far none of them have any issues with 4G. (Beyond Sprints stupid 4G bugs of their own).

Just remember to always download from the source, go straight to the unrevoked teams website, and see if there are any change notes. If you happen to see a newer version than v3.32, only then would I hold off for at least a week or two to make sure it's stable (You can follow them on twitter to see their progress on fixing issues).

Good luck

Thanks for the info. Will try and root unrevoked again :)

Did several phones for friends and never even heard such a thing. UnrEVOked is simplest and safest way to do it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgeigel:
I read it in one of the tutorials, and a friend of mine lost their 4g I believe.

Did he by any chance flash Rom without 4g?
[Droid Eris General] ForwardTwo:
Through everything I've learned about phone development, you guys have proven to be the best. You took our Eris and transformed it into a much better device than Verizon or HTC ever dreamed of it being, it's been such a fantastic run.

I'm currently learning Java and I've been offered an internship at IBM over the summer, so I'll be making a lot of apps soon. :) You guys rock.

But I'm sad to say that I'm moving onto a new phone, I have Verizon's first WP7 device and I have to say; I'm in love with it. I was the leaker who leaked out the HTC Trophy, and even if it isn't the highest end WP7 device, it certainly is a joy to use.

I'm keeping my old Eris though for the sake of development however, and to always run what this beautiful community pushes out. :) Thank you so much to all of the developers, you guys rock.
[Droid Eris General] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Congratulations on the internship! Best of luck with it. Have fun with your new phone (muttering under breath). LOL. ;) Stop back in and say hi someday!

Take care.
[Folio 100 General] headblow:
Today my folio 100 hanged, and after rebot I was unable to start it.

It was showing only black screen (whitch blinked twice).

I thought maybe something went wrong,

so I tried to get to recovery menu, and try to flash it again.

But now I'm getting android triangle with exclamation.

Does it mean it's bricked (deadlock I've read about)?

And is there anyway to fix it?

[Folio 100 General] headblow:
Thanks, in this case reason was very simple.

SD Card had save protection turned on.

And repeating black screen on start up was because

some files were left in cache by other roms Ive used before.

Factory reset + cache cleaning + dalvik cache cleaning with

ClockworkMod before apply of foliomod on fresh stock rom

solved this.

I have an Irish Tab :-) and it would like a nice customization for the upcoming St. Patricks.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jammysunny:
I wish since a few months, there would be CWM for German Tabs:(

The second I wish, no EXT4!!! The Condition for almost all Roms is this, and two times I tried, my PCs were damaged, so, why not offering flexible methods to flash the newer Roms? Like Roto do?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RunTimeWorld:
The solution is the following:

1. Root your tab as described in the sticky

2. Install the apk that unlocks the bootloader (It can potentially brick your device if youre not 100% aware of what you do)

3. Buy the “euro bootstrap“ app from market. Its made by kush and will install cwm.

Note: there is a lot of negative rating on that app because:

If you install the app without unlocking the bootloader, your device will not reboot and you have to flash your tab again.

If this helped you, dont hesitate to hit the thanks button ;)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triplex76:
for the italian user:

(i'm italian too)

just flash the koxudaxi kernel and you will have CWM.

ciao con heimdall flasha il kernel di koxudaxi in un colpo solo avrai:

possibilità di overclock, possibiblità di undervolt (la batteria dura moooolto di più),

vodoo sound ossia possibilità di regolare l'amplificazione delle cuffie che di default è bassina,clockword con supporto a rfs,ext4 e non solo, è l'unico kernel dove l'usb storage funziona, ossia senza accendere il galaxy basterà connetterlo avviare la cwm e potrai accedere alla sd interna ed esterna da pc:)

e molto altro come per esempio lo sblocco del clock a 600mhz del processore che di default ha solo 100,200,400,800,1000 come steps,con questo kernel li hai tutti da 100 a 1400!

EXT4 doesn't do anything to your PC...I'm sorry but you need to read the notes more carefully. It's as simple as flash the EXT4 kernel in odin.. reboot and let CWM do the rest. You're doing something totally wrong if it messes up your PC twice.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jammysunny:
Hi Mikroft,

I did it with an ISO-CD, which was described as savest....

So you tell me now, there could be another way, EXT4 Kernel with Odin?

Did I understand you right, that flashing this Kernel do a EXT4-Partition to my SD-Card?

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RunTimeWorld:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
I just updated my phone through wifi, somekind of system update i guess.. but after i've updated it and restartet it, it just freezes at the 'hero' screen (infinit loop boot maybe?) i just got the phone (used though) the only thing i can do is go into the fastboot screen, but i dont really know what to do now.. i've done various things to try to get further but the only difference have been that i've seen a screen showing a phone with a red triangle with an ! in it..

I normally never waste other peoples time with these problems, but this is ****ing annoying, if anyone could help me.. i would really appreciate it...

The phone isn't flashed just original rom..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvan:
Was it rooted before the update? This kind of thing happend to me with a Desire. I he'd done an ota update after root and got infinite boot loop.

The only thing to do, was to flash original ruu. I guess you should do so. Just search the forum for Hero RUUs. I'm sure you'll find.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
actually my friend had tried to root it without success, and me being a noob to it tried to do so too, but got stuck in the cmd where it just showed downloading FAILED.. so no it wasn't rooted.

But thanks for the reply just needed to know what to do ^^
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvan:
So did it help?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
going to try it now, found the ruu's you were talking about, if you got time afterwards would you help me to root it? would be nice, still thanks for the help though
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
dammit seemes like i've been here before... i've tried doing it with no success, like i said i can only go into fastboot usb mode.. it locks at the 'hero' screen so cant get into the OS to get the original ROM reinstalled :S
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvan:
If you've got the latest ruu, then going to fastboot is enough. You must open fastboot, connect usb and run the exe. It's the only way.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
it can't find my phone.. i've read some threads about some people having the same problem running window 7 x64, i figure it might be because i didn't install any drivers for the phone before, only used it through usb to recharge and usb stick.. but i've tried downloading the ADB software etc. still nothing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvan:
It is a driver problem. Download latest htc sync. It has all the drivers. Helped in my case.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
awesome thanks, going to try it now
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sphuyal:
boot into recovery, do hard reset (this would erase every thing though)

and you need help to root? what is the version of your software?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
it's still not working i'm getting [170] error... so i've searched for this problem and found some different methods to figure out what to do now, the weird thing is that in cmd when i type "fastboot devices"... it finds my device, that i already knew.. BUT when i type "adb devices" it just writes "List of devices attached" = nothing.. absolutly nothing.. soo guess i'll just have to figure out how to do next now..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
how do i do that? explain it like i'm a moron ^^
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
well did it, still infinit loop :S

i really REALLY dont hope this ends up with me getting a crappy iphone instead..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
now i know that it only get into something called cleanstorage.. not the recovery mode...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvan:
Wait. What have you done exactly? You don't need neither recovery, nor adb.

Adb won't see your device, because there's no working os on it. You just neet 2 things that will repair the phone. Htc sync and latest RUU EXE file. If you have htc sync, turn the phone into fastboot, plug usb cable and you will see 'fastboot usb plug' on the phone. Now open 'device manager' on pc (right click on Computer>properties>device manager o the left panel). If the drivers are ready, there will be 'Android>my htc'. If not, look on the taskbar near the clock. There mite be some mooving icon saying 'installing driver softwere' or something like that. Wate for some time. I wated about a minute till it said 'device is ready'.

Whet drivers are ready, run the RUU exe file. Say 'yes' to everything and don't touch the phone. It should do th job.

Try this steps and tell what happened. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arvan:
Oh and don't forget to hard reset. It is the 'clean storage'.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
dude i've done everything that you've said before, and now i did it again it doesn't work.. i still get the ERROR [170] USB-CONNECTIONERROR..

- if this makes any difference, for me it isn't called 'my htc' - it's 'ADB Interface' > 'HTC Bootloader'

- i've installed the ADB **** that didn't work, then uninstalled the driver, then downloaded the 'HTC Sync' and installed it, so it is the driver from 'HTC Sync'
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
i've might have found both the problem and solution now :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elgaard2:
okaay, it's a driver problem, now im trying it on my laptop, it then got to ERROR [131] instead xD haah well a bit progress is better than no progress at all..

[XPERIA X8 General] karun11:
Cool. I'm no programmer but I'll try and get a developer to share the X10 module, and then you can perhaps give it a shot :) If a developer jumps onboard, it'll be brilliant ofc.

@Others

From what I've heard, this has been done and ought to work. Since you dont need to push a new kernel altogether, that step is bypassed.
[XPERIA X8 General] Graveir:
If it worked, would it be implemented on official 2.1 only, or could it be ported to non-official roms too?
[XPERIA X8 General] karun11:
Its a bit premature to comment on that. First we need to get developers onboard. But once the kernel module is modded, it should work across all ROMs.
[XPERIA X8 General] oisteink:
Relevant: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loadable_kernel_module

See the section for binary compability.
[XPERIA X8 General] karun11:
it says

"In an attempt to combat those problems ,

symbol versioning data is placed within the

. m o d i n f o section of loadable ELF

modules . This versioning information can

be compared with that of the running

kernel before loading a module ; if the

versions are incompatible , the module will

not be loaded."

Maybe the module can be customized, and the symbol versioning data added, so that the kernel doesn't reject it?

Just a thought. Somebody has managed to.do this for another device. I'll try and get in touch with him.

Good story...could have done away with some of that worry by reading about the long 1st boot boot times and the VooDoo voices, but your story is the same as lots of people...First time is always a rush and a worry, but glad to see yours worked out, and hopefully people will read your post and then read a lot of the others on here to avoid some of the worry! thanks for the post!
[Captivate General] thehobster:
Yeah - that was kinda the point. I've been on the 'net since the late 80s (Ok, so I'm old), so I'm steeped in the "read first ask later" mentality. The problem here is that when I find an interesting post that may relate, it's 150+ pages long. And on page 187 someone says "Yes, didn't you read that 47 pages back?"

Did I make it to page 187? Did I miss the significance 47 pages back? Maybe & probably not.

I just hoped to have enough search keywords in here that someone can find my story and maybe save themselves alot of reading :)

One word of advice to anyone playing around with root and CFW: $10 isn't alot to pay for insurance that you don't brick your phone. In other words, buy the JiG and be done with it. It really saved my a$$ this time.
[Captivate General] kb0npw:
You are so correct. That's my only complaint about this forum. Since I've been here, I've learned a lot, but as far as the basic why and how stuff, it's buried amongst umpteen pages. Somewhere it would be nice to have the latest, greatest methods listed without tons of pages of follow-ups which also add the latest, greatest info. Who has time to dig through it all? Not me, which is why my phone is still stock, non-rooted, and non lagfixed.
[Captivate General] thehobster:
I wonder if any thought has been given to keeping moderated forums for just this sort of thing? Admins could maintain current data from the threads in all the other forums in the form of basic posts or stickies.

Of course, that would be alot of work for someone...

BTW - after Cognition 4.1.1, I'm loving the phone. Battery drain is gone and lags are gone. I haven't tested the GPS much, but I'm assuming the problems are more hardware than software (which no amount of CFW can fix).

[Captivate General] shane87:
I ran into similar problems with my phone when flashing. I am running official 2.2 rom with CWM recovery, SuckerPunch #53 Kernel, lagfix installed, and I900 UCGJ2 modem. When I first tried to flash CWM, I kept getting the package unsigned error. So I downloaded the cracked 3e recovery without sign check. I followed the instructions on that post to a tee, rebooted, and hung at white att screen when boot into recovery. To get past this, I removed battery, reinstalled and rebooted. Still stuck at att white screen. Upon hooking back to computer, I ran adb devices command and saw my phone was still in recovery mode. So I typed adb reboot, and my phone came back on. After an hour of having similar results, I finally got the 3e unsigned recovery to work by following these steps:

1. Download recovery file to adb directory on computer

2. Adb push recovery /data/local/tmp

3. Using root explorer, remount /system as rw.

4. Adb shell

5. Chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/recovery

6. Cp /data/local/tmp/recovery /system/bin

7. Chmod 777 /system/bin/recovery

8. Exit from adb shell

9. Unhook from computer

10. Reboot phone.

11. Power phone off.

12. Reboot into recovery by using three button method.

This worked for me, and I had to mess around for an hour to figure it all out. I agree that a centralized location for instructions and information would be wonderful! Would save a lot if headaches, especially for people like me. I am new to smartphones, and I have only had my captivate since mid february. Thus was my first time flashing, and while I am very computer literate and am a self taught programmer, I have no experience in mobile phones. Luckily, android is based on linux, which I am well versed in. I hope this helps someone.

You don't have to root, or use ROM manager. Occasionally I toss in a master clear, but not every time. I do however delete every folder on the SD card except my media, ROMs and cwm update.zip.

Espresso is a modified version of sense. The normal htc Sense is like that on the Sprint Hero and Evo and Verizon Eris and Incredible. The bottom App drawer, phone button is done in an upward curve. Either way the Desire Z roms won't be able to work on the Slide because the hardware is very different. The only hope is either T-Mobile getting off their butt and releasing an update or porting the htc Salsa or Wildfire S roms. Both when they finally release will have Gingerbread 2.4 and Sense 2.1.
