[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rom-Addict:
Are u just gonna reroot?

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neuman.Tim:
I can get to HBOOT but from there all i can do is reboot or fast boot, I havent done the factory reset yet but i intend to try. But from hboot I want to get into cwm, or do i get into cwm recovery a different way?

Mind you I havent tried to get into it since flashing the newest cwm through rom manager (or that I remember trying or not..been a hectic past week..im losing my damn mind, grandmother passed away in Anaheim, etc, etc)

also im going to reroot and do a completely different rom, it is stock minus wonky root and launcher pro. I finally convinced the wife to let me modify it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rom-Addict:
Ifu don't see recovery option in any hboot option. Like there's no clockwork u should by able to flash clockwork and then a Rom.ican pm you.but if unroot is your objective goto Android dev stickies there's a thread.

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neuman.Tim:
thats the thing, I see the recovery option, but everytime I select it, it tried to find a multitude of images, says file doesnt exist on all of them (4 or 5 of them I believe) and sends me back to the main hboot screen.

Suppose that information would have been useful. Again, hectic week lol
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rom-Addict:
use say u have rom manager?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neuman.Tim:
yes, im wondering if I need a stock recovery image since it isnt finding the PBwhaterver.img Any idea where I can get that?

Also probably helpful, I had used unrevoked forever a while back. Im thinking I need to undo those changes and just retry everything.

Thoughts?

Edit: Downloaded a new clockwork recovery image from unrevoked forever wiki, gonna throw it on the SD card and see what happens. HOPEFULLY that will let me into cwr, if not, how do I just put everything back to stock so I can start over?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rom-Addict:
try that file. get rid of the mlti part should sayPB31IMG. also make sure no other files of the same name are on root of sd.should say update vol up yes wait reboot no see ifu got recovery got newr versions too. also new urevoked have versions without clockwork u prolly used tht one. easy fix tho
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neuman.Tim:
alright, gonna give it a shot when I get home in the morning. Wish me luck.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neuman.Tim:
Alright flashing with rom manager and selecting reboot into recovery from there worked just fine. we are in business :) for now anyways lol.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VenezuelaDan:
Knowing that the ChevronWP7 team has now been working with Microsoft to secure the exploit they were using, and that the NoDo update coming out on Monday will relock the phone and patch said exploit, what will happen next?

Obviously some of the fine people in these forums will take a crack at it, so I suppose my question would be this: Knowing what you guys know about developing and hacking the Windows Phone, how long would it take between the release of the update and until it i cracked again?

Will it be similar to the timespan between iOS release and jailbreaks, or of Android releases and rooting? What steps do you developers and hackers anticipate you will have to take in order to developer unlock our first major OS update?

I'm just really curious, and having just gotten a Samsung Focus on Monday, I wanted to make sure whether or not it was worth updating as soon as the update was relased. What do you think?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kapanak:
Well, on LG phones, you have a registry editor which allows you to unlock the phone (for sideloading) without the Chevron exploit (and no need for a certificate). I wonder if the update will kill even the registry keys (or change them to something more obscure).

Assume those do not change, then a new exploit would need to access the registry of a locked phone somehow, and I am sure people here will come up with a new certificate.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VenezuelaDan:
Other WP7

What about other phones? HTC HD7 or Samsung Focus? The Focus makes up a very large part of WP7 users.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] o0MattE0o:
it will come the phone is only 5 months old :D there has to be some bright spark out there that can unlock the phone after the updates :D or microsoft will allow HomeBrew applications to be loaded?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesecondsfade:
I just flashed from 7004 to PreNoDo 7008 on my HD7 and my unlocked apps are still working... I'm hoping that happens when I get my NoDo update... though unlikely. Then I could just use the sideloaded registry editor to re-unlock it. Here's to hoping!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmcgraw:
I have installed NoDo on my US AT&T Samsung Focus and it is still Chevron unlocked.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UbiMaiden:
My Omnia 7 has Nodo and homebrew software is still working.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockChalk:
I installed NoDo on my Focus and now its locked. How did you unlock it in the first place? I installed the certificate, ran Chevron tool, and checked both boxes. Now after NoDo install locked again.:confused:

I tried flashing cyanogenmod 7 to my cappy and i followed the instructions.. i flashed the kernel using oden and now i cant get into download or recovery(3 button combo doesnt work) then i tried adb reboot download and it still went back to the galaxy s cyanogenmod screen.. please help. I have this really bad feeling I'm not gonna be able to get this fixed. :(
[Captivate General] delugeofspam:
Try pulling your battery, plugging in USB, holding the 2 volume keys and replacing the battery.

If that doesn't work, build or buy a jig, which is a hardware piece that can get you into download mode. Search Development for a how-to on that.

mobile sig: I897/Cognition 4.1.1/speedmod k13c/UGJK4 using xda app.
[Captivate General] ibrutalfatei:
It took me to the same screen. :( ughh.. this sucks. I should have never tried to flash CM7 I was doing fine with Continuum
[Captivate General] opcow:
You used Odin one click and your combo buttons not longer work. Get a jig and don't use the one-click flasher (at least not that one) again.
[Captivate General] delugeofspam:
Flash a 2.2 kernel using SGS Kernel Flasher by Neldar (from the market)

Maybe then you can get a recovery running.

mobile sig: I897/Cognition 4.1.1/speedmod k13c/UGJK4 using xda app.
[Captivate General] ibrutalfatei:
I can't even get it to boot up.. I'm stuck at Galaxy S Cyanogenmod Screen. I have tried the 3 button combo and ADB.. when i used adb, it just rebooted the phone and went to the same screen instead of going into download mode or recovery.
[Captivate General] opcow:
The only way to get into recovery or download mode with CM7 is via button combos (which the one-click flasher disables for most batch 1008 and newer phones). The CM7 install requires that you use the combo to get into recovery prior to flashing <DEVICE>-efsbackup.zip, so if you tried that it should have been obvious at that point that something was wrong. It's not really possible to follow the instructions and get the CM7 kernel installed if your button combos don't work.
[Captivate General] ibrutalfatei:
I didn't even think about that. ugh.. before i flashed efsbackup.zip I rebooted into recovery.. oh well, guess I'm SOL.
[Captivate General] ibrutalfatei:
I bought a Jig for it, hopefully that does the trick. Thanks for the help though XDA buddies. :)

Moving questions to the CM7 Q&A
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juliusedward:
Some of the music files on SD card are not detected by the music player.

I am using CM7 nightly.

I have 2 files under music folder on SD card. Only one of them is detected by the player. If I play the undetected file using Astro, it plays fine.

How do I solve this problem?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvonnegutjr:
Why is it that independent teams of devs working in their spare time compile roms that are orders of magnitude better than the stock ones. HTC, Samsung, Motorola, you're doing it wrong.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackSHELF:
Because when stock rom is created the carrier along with manufacture add boltware which drag down it heavily. They have to release version that is guaranteed to work with the minimal effort which comes at physical cost to the companies so another reason they don't dash out updates or quick to jump as they need manpower to research which is usually supported by the manufacture.

Where here the open developers has access to newest patch as its updated thus they can amend it. Not only do the dev gets user feedback directly but they can work with the users to test it and deploy it faster correctly any flaws. Since most of the things we do breaks the TOS for carrier/manufacture warranty. We can better utilize the limited resource and translate it in to performance that would suit the user based on there need and not target the mass as an whole. This is where flavor of rom's come in as each dev add their own touch to it adding/subtracting what they think will improve it further, faster. Since its up to the user they can just flash new rom and not have to worry about the company maintaining and updating as another reason we have newer revisions faster as its maintained by the open community.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvonnegutjr:
That answers my question of why the devs are doing it right. But why can't the manufactures pick up on this. To put it lightly the stock os for the mytouch 4g is crap. It hogs battery and it is slow. I guess my question should be why do they keep doing it wrong while devs are a perfect example of how to do it right.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianphanz0r:
because they want to make more money.

Edit: and stock OS isnt slow, nor is it crap. its one of the fastest out there atm (i.e. stock quadrant score ~1800-1900).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leo221:
when you buy a HP or DELL, there are loads of crapwares pre-installed. if you want a clean fast computer, get the win dvd out repartition and do a fresh install. in the smartphone world, phone manufactures tries very hard to not let you do that. the stock mytouch 4g rom from tmobile usa is over 250mb. the cm7 rom is only 80mb but does much more and faster. it's a no brainer.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
but it is loaded down with bloatware that not everyone wants to use.

And going from stock MySense ROM to a AOSP ROM, there is a huge speed difference. Quadrant Score might not show it, but it's there.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
I have yet to see it. Not accusing, just also observing. Never use quadrant, but bouncing back and forth between CM7 and stock for weeks has given me cause to believe that it's in the details, like look and feel, that ultimately separates these ROMs. Every ROM I've used has been extremely fast without problems. I just don't see this significant speed increase people are talking about. When I click on the appdrawer in MySense, it immediately opens, I don't know how it can be faster than immediately. Same thing across the entire user experience. At first I thought battery life was better on MySense (with reasonable management), but after extensive testing they are all very similar. I only keep a Mysense backup (that contains all of my old data) and frequently flash other roms for a day or two, in the end I come back to Mysense simply because I'm used to it and I can't find a reason to stick with any other ROM. I use faux's kernels and honestly believe that is where you make the biggest difference in the performance of the phone. Put his kernel of MySense and tell me it's slow. Anyways lots of words to say to each his own, I'll still continue to flash as long and new builds are released.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leo221:
why do people argue back and forth just for fun or what? you use whatever roms you like. nobody is forcing nobody to use this or that rom. just live your lives your way.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianphanz0r:
I'm aware there is bloatware that many people don't want to use. I am also aware that rooting and flashing roms makes your phone faster. That doesn't mean the stock rom is bad or slow.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
...this baffles me. I just stated what I thought, and if you notice did so with far less of an endorsement than you. Not really sure why you decided to call me out.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
[When it comes to Quadrant Scores]

I never implied that the Stock MySense is bad and/or slow, i just stated that it's chuck full o' bloatware. for a "stock" phone the MT4G is one of the fastest phones to date. And yes i am aware that that bloatware doesn't tamper with performance, other than chewing up memory that other apps could be using.

underlining i can get into my phone and dial numbers quicker via AOSP, i can get into the calendar and do what i need to w/o all of the added "features" that HTC seems to feel ones need. The Speed of a OS isn't only measured by a number that Quadrant spits out. It's also measured by how quickly one can access the stuff on the phone.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
agreed. it just so happens that I like the added features. I'm one of the few on these forums, but that's why I keep trying out new ROMs, because every ROM brings something different to the table and it's fun to experiment.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianphanz0r:
Well i was trying to stay on subject by answering the author of this thread and then adding my own 2 cents. I never argued that custom roms are faster or slower than the stock rom. i'm just saying stock rom isn't slow, as much as the author of this thread seems to think.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bchen03:
It depends on what you deem as better. I tried Ice Glacier and for me it wasn't better at all. Less bloatware yes, but had little bugs here and there that really annoyed me. That's the thing with the stock ROM, it has work as near perfect as possible for the masses since 95% of users will not root their devices and will not install a custom ROM. They're not interested in spending weeks installing ROM patches just to get the latest gingerbread lockscreen. Not everyone is a geek like us :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyldkard:
might not make as big of a difference on a top of the line phone like the mt4g but it makes a big difference when used on an older phone like the G1.

plus, its not just about the speed, custom roms have better battery life because they eliminate battery draining apps and services that you dont/need and want as well as allow you to customize the hell out of your phone.

then you got apps like titanium backup that just make certain things so much easier

i tried installing the new Eb13 (froyo) alongside Clockword mod 3. power went out now my phone wont turn on go to recovery nor download!!! is my phone bricked beyond repair????
[Epic 4G General] notsosmrtgeek:
You can look at other forums about the same problem and a few tricks you can try. It can be something as simple as replacing the battery.
[Epic 4G General] Caballero777:
no i have a spear battery and no dice!!! ill keep searching and thanks for the info!!! =)
[Epic 4G General] fury15:
did the power go out while you were installing it? or did you try to flash a rom that was rfs not ext4? also my phone has a had time goint into download or recovery cuz ive done it so much the buttons are worn out i think. i have to hit it multiple times before it works. keep trying... but we may need more info as to what all happened to assist you further
[Epic 4G General] Caballero777:
yeah their is a picture of a cellphone and a computer with an exclamation point in the middle!!! i post it to download and the computer doesnt read it!!! =(
[Epic 4G General] castro08:
Yeah that happened to me before

Your phone got disconnected when using odin

Well it kinda of a hassle to get the computr to read it, and get it into download mode, but I can assure you your phone isn't bricked!:) just keep trying
[Epic 4G General] Dman10:
I had this problem before also, I fixed it by rebooting my PC, and then booting into download mode, and Odin back to stock. It did take a few tries though.
[Epic 4G General] zenvita:
I've had this before. You need to purge the power in your phone. Take battery out and hold down the power button a few times.

This will purge power and memory.

Then boot into download. # 1 and power and then odin.
[Epic 4G General] Caballero777:
Odin is not working for me what so ever!! this is so frustrating!!! lol everytime i connect the usb without the download i get the update zip!!!
[Epic 4G General] zenvita:
Caballero. Pm me your number. I can call you.
[Epic 4G General] Caballero777:
thats the thing!!! this is my only phone! no relatives or anything!!! =( facebook is facebook.com/Caballero777
[Epic 4G General] notsosmrtgeek:
Try using different usb ports. After rebooting the computer. The pc will try to find ur phone again but if u get it to the download screen. Its just the matter of getting odin to work for you
[Epic 4G General] Milkman00:
I had my phone do the exact same thing (die during flash). What you can try doing is leaving your battery out overnight, and in the morning, plug the phone in to your computer/wall, then plug your battery in.

Really what you need is to get your battery charged. If worse comes to worse, you could go to a Sprint Store, and tell them your phone died and you don't have insurance, and ask them to charge your battery, OR if you know someone else with your phone you could swap.
[Epic 4G General] tmspyder:
This is how I have delt with the same problem.. that and rebooting computer with phone still plugged in, with battery removed
[Epic 4G General] Animas1020:
I've Odin'd before and had the process freeze in the process and was forced to pull my battery in the middle. I got that same symbol described with the pc and the cell phone when trying to use the phone again after putting the battery back in. All I had to do was pull the battery again to get it back into download made.
[Epic 4G General] Caballero777:
Yeah it happened to me like that before and i solved it that way, but this time my computer is not reading my phone!!! So odin doesnt work and when it does read it odin stops all process and shuts off!!! ='(

How much is a bricked epic worth to you? Pm me with a price!

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maquaii:
Got myself this data only subscription, got a micro sim. Made an adapter for it, had a little trouble inserting... But still.

Didn't ask for pin codes.

When i insert it it sees it, it restarts, says no signal, and then i get a message "insert sim card" after a few seconds...

Called the handler, told me to get a usim

Got a usim

Didn't ask for pin codes, and the same problem.

Used another phone and removed the pin code, still didn't help.

It is able to read and use 3 different sim cards, from 3 different handlers, which is regular, not data only. (I get an "H" up and internet works, but no 3G. Whatever H stands for it's way fast.)

Got a new sim, didn't work.

Tested it on another Gtab and it worked.

Is it possible that messing with the sim slot while trying to insert the mico sim could cause the problem in some way? Phones are not my thing.

And i was wondering is this original firmware settings? (Bought it off someone else)

pda: jme

phone: jma

csc: jme

I tried to change the firmware, which i suppose was stupid of me, it crashed during the flashing. Got it up running again, but at least the Phone part did not change.

So the question really is, why this is happening.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
H = 3g data
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maquaii:
Read up on that and yeah, it's "3.5G" but it still won't register the data only sim card.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bugman1:
If this is a GSM tab. Unlock it first.

Flash it with Roto's JMI v2 Rom and include a modem.bin file.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew951:
After GSB Gingerbread 1.7 and up, swype has given me the message "The swype package you installed is configured for another device and will operate with limited functionality. Please contact Swype about this issue." However, using 1.6 and below, it works fine.

P.S. I really think this 10 posts or less can't post in the development discussion forum is not needed. Some people like me are just naturally good at things and want to post to report an issue or a bug. If we really are supposed to post in the question and answer thread, then having others post in the rom pages is unnecessary...
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spikelangelo:
Swype is pretty finicky with GB in my experience. I've hit this problem a number of times. remove swype, remove installer, I use estrongs (any explorer with root privileges will do) I don't remember the exact location but there is a random swype file that sometimes gets left in a folder in /data somewhere. Delete it. Reboot and wipe dalvik. Reboot and let the apps reload and then follow the swype email. This has always worked for me, maybe it could for you too. Swype will still disable on reboot, but just change to a different keyboard and back and it will work again. Doesn't seem to be a real fix for that aspect yet.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrew951:
Clearing the dalvik cache seemed to have done the trick! I didn't find the random swype file though. Thanks!
