Amen to that. I'm on Win7 64 and tried flashing the SBF from my Desktop. No dice. First time from C:\ SUCCESS!!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] meet2x4:
Win7 x64. Put the SBF in my C:\ directory, kept giving me flash errors. Ultimately had to run RSD as admin and drag+drop the file. Worked like a charm. Thanks everybody!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cpttrsn:
What if the Start button stays grayed out?

I have tried several times and think I am following the instructions. I clicked on the ... and opened the sbf file. I restarted the phone with the sim and sd cards removed. I can see "starting RSD protocol support" at the top of the screen.

I connect the cable and can then see my device in RSD Lite.

No start button. The "show device" and the "close" buttons are active but start is grayed out.

Any ideas?

Where can I find a copy of 1.2.6 ?? I flashed the one in the first post that said was 1.2.6 but when I check the version it's actually 1.5.2 .....!?

Im getting "Internal error while programming phone" anybody have an idea or solution for this? I just want to go back to stock to install updates.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] INSM Sin:
Can someone please tell me how to flash back to stock??
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Blk02Ls1:
There is a detailed guide from the OP.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] KryptosXLayer2:
You need to shorten the complete length of the filename AND the folders it is in.... apparently RSD doesn't like long filenames or folders, so move it to C:\Android or something similar, then shorten the filename down to something simple like OLYFR_U4_157.sbf

Now, for my question.... I just got an error message while trying to flash 4.1.57:

Failed flashing process. (0x7100); phone connected

what does that mean?? what did I do wrong now? :confused:

EDIT - and I solved my own question by doing a web search and not just an XDA search! Here you go, for anyone who has any issues flashing:

My flash is running as I type this!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] regis.stration:
START button greyed out on RSD Lite

I can't flash back to 1.2.6. Everything goes well up to the point where I press "start". the device is connected, the sbf file has been selected. But the start button is greyed and will not activate.

Any suggestions? I am on a MacBook Pro running parallels desktop windows7 virtual machine. But I seem to have no issue connecting to the phone or loading the sbf file. If I click on the line with the phone, the properties pop up in the window above. The "file properties" window stays blank no matter what I do and the "show device" button seems to have no effect.

Thanks . . .:confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xknappx:
ok, so went through the process, followed to the letter. DLed the 126, ran rsd, seems to have completed the entire process, reboot gets to 100%, then phone stays on red M screen with

"Failed to boot 4"

"Starting RSD mode"

been that way for an hour.:eek: Any help to fix this would be appreciated!

update: dled the 1.5.2 tried same and still same results

history:

1. superoneclick root

2. installed adeo

3. ran aroot

4. "tried" to flash back to stock to get update...still stuck
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gachiennuocmam:
Someone has got grey button just try to drag the sbf file into SDK instead of selecting it in the SDK. Sometime the process fails because of a bad USB or something like that. Keep trying again or move to another USB. I did it successful at first time.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] xknappx:
redownloaded 1.2.6, when extracting with 7z, it gives me a data error wrong password? reverified password, extracted again, same problem. not sure if this happened the first time...

AAARGH this is frustrating! guess I have a shiny paperweight...:mad:

UPDATE: SUCCESS! OK!! I attempted to dl all files and it appears the dl's were corrupting. SO, googled some things, found 1.57 sbf at briefmobile, dled, flashed per instructions and viola! phone rebooted, everything is working like a charm!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drock212:
Try using winzip. And make sure you're not using caps or anything for the password (I know they're dummy solutions but those are usually what I miss the most you know the simple stuff lol)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drock212:
Ok try this:

1) flash 1.2.6

2) root using retain root method http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016060

3) run OTA update

4) finish running retain root script

Final product: rooted 1.5.7

hope that helps
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drock212:
Ok you need to flash back to 1.2.6 to start off clean then use the retain root method so that you can sideload TiBu (click link for retain root method) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016060 then you need to OTA or sideload to 1.5.7 this should fix your problem... I don't know how the 1.5.7 sbf works because its only an update so I can only assume (correct me if im wrong) that you need a non modded 1.2.6 to run sbf 1.5.7 if you have any question please don't ask... lol kidding Id be happy to help. Oh and factory reset doesn't really do much that's probably why it didn't work.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drock212:
You try running as admin? Windows shouldn't display a message like that lol they let you install anything under the sun :-)

Any suggestions on how to fix this issue? Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] princeandy63:
I can not extract the 1.2.6 ROM/OS, it fails upon extraction, I downloaded it twice, one with a Download manager and one with built in to Firefox

Update: never mind, moved 7z file to c:\ and extracted fine
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sabesh:
Nevermind. I found the problem: Too many nested folders in the path for SBF. I moved it over to C:\ and I was able to flash to stock. Cheers.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] havlaz:
do i need root i order to do so ?

my Atrix is not rooted but have the latest firmware update 4.1.57 .

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Yep still on MIUI. I average about 1.5Mbps down. No 4G but my 3G speeds are so good that I could care less about 4G. Also, MIUI has built in tethering that works splendidly.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsisbest:
If you can try another rom such as miui for instance like others have stated, you'll find you have better luck with tethering using the built in hotspot. I struggled with wireless tether as well but that 2.05 rc1 version i think it was worked good for me. some more info on your part like what rom, version of tether etc your using would help

[HD7 General] tricurious:
I want to flash a clean stock ROM on my T-Mobile HD7 and I need to know which one to go for ?

the leaked Nodo ROM or the one posted by Ansar.

(In the Bootloader it says 'Security Unlocked' on the top of the phone)

Is the Goldcard method the only way and I want to know after I flash this ROM would it be updateable in future via Zune ?

Also where can I find the tutorials where I can learn more about this ?
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
Doing a search on the forums would yield directions and information on everything you've asked.

How to Flash a new ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876451

As for stock ROMs, the European ROMs (unbranded ones) from HTC, would be as stock as you can get. This would come stock with only HTC apps installed, which of course, can be easily removed. This would be the NoDo one posted. You aren't going to find a true stock app, since there are none available.

The branded T-Mobile ROMs of course, come with some T-Mobile apps (that can be easily removed), and very little customization. Most important, they include preset configuration settings for T-Mobile services such as data connectivity (though this can be configured to any HTC phone with the HTC Connection Setup app), and most importantly, the latest software radios for phone use in the United States.

If you choose a device with radios outside the USA or made for a different network, you may notice varied battery life, call reception and quality, and varied data throughput.

Because you say your device is security unlocked, you should have no trouble installing a ROM for the HD7 from any region, without goldcard. I think.
[HD7 General] dwnhiler:
original t-mobile rom for hd7

i have htc hd7 changed my rom to HD7_TMOUS_2.20.841.02_Radio_5.65.09.11a_22.44.50.1 5_NoDo, by ansar and tried to do chevronwp7 and i think i should have done chevron first before the rom. i dont know if there is a way to unlock my phone with chevron with the nodo rom already installed but thinking i should revert back to original rom then chevron it but where can i get that rom since i had t-mobile. or is there a way for me to unlock with chevronwp7 even with the installed TMOUS_2.20.841.02_Radio_5.65.09.11a_22.44.50.1 5_NoDo, by ansar (no worries i figured it out , no need for reply)
[HD7 General] krillik08:
First windows phone ever, skilled in android as well as older phones (think motorola seem editing, LOL) I just have no idea about this. I recently bought mine on craigslist and the guy added the nodo update like 2 days before I bought it, How did you revert to stock tmobile and chevronwp7 it? I want to sideload apps!
[Windows Phone 7 General] sure haven't:
There's been a lot of negativity lately, I thought I would start a thread about the things I love about wp7. The things that make it the obvious choice for me.

I know I've been one of the ones being loudly vocal about negative stuff, so I thought I would try and balance it a bit.

Interface

Let's get this one out of the way cause it's kind of obvious.

I think wp7's interface is the next gen of smartphones. It's what initially attracted me to the platform. I believe above ALL else, UI is most important.

Above apps, above features, above anything... UI matters the most. Because it's how you will be interacting with your device while using those features.

And Microsoft absolutely nailed this one. Homer'd it out of the park. There is nothing like it right now on the market. It won't be like that forever cause competition breeds great product, but right now, it's top of the line.

People hub

I just pulled up a college buddy of mine. Under his name it says:

text mobile

call mobile

call home

write on wall

send email

map home address

view website

I can't get over how it just takes everything and gathers it into one spot. It's sooo easy. A perk that always impresses me, no matter how many times I use it. Again, next-gen thinking.

Remote locking/messaging/ringing/tracking

This one is the top seller. I don't think I'll ever switch mainly just for this reason.

I can, at any time, log into a website and make my phone ring, flash a message on the screen, lock it, erase it, and most importantly, GPS track it. Amazing.

And it actually concerns me that my wife's iPhone doesn't have that.

Then of course there was the story about the golfer who tracked his phone when it was in fact stolen, and got it back. Fantastic. These are features that are innovative and should be stock.

Just in case MS has some media-watchers reading forums, I just wanted to show them a little love.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
what brought me to wp7 is multimedia functionality:

1. slingbox

2. netflix

3. zune

4. slacker

5. podcasts including video podcasts autosynced

6. Bitbop is interesting

7. More internet videos play for me than on winmo

Also of course it the interesting UI.

I also like the fact that there are devs willing to develop for it unlike on winmo.

Games are much better than on winmo and having all programs/apps in one centralized place is great. I have no problems throwing a couple bucks at games and apps that I want.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ErikWithNoC:
I think you need to talk with your wife because you can definitely do all that with the iPhone. As of one of the newest firmwares (not sure which one maybe 4.2.1) you can download a free app from the marketplace to set it up, or just do it through iTunes and the MobileMe website both for free. When I was setting my new iPhone up the other day it prompted me to set up the feature and it took like 2 seconds. Now I can log into a website, track my iPhone, wipe it, etc just like I could on WP7 (this has actually been a feature of the iPhone for awhile, but you had to pay a subscription for MobileMe to use it so it was kinda of a downer).

As for the rest of your points I agree 100%. WP7 UI is beautiful (as long as the developers create their icons to take advantage of the theming) and Facebook integration is amazing. I think WP7 is a strong contender for the smartphone market with its new acquisition of 10,000 apps just as long as Microsoft gets over these current update woes and delivers some good useful features.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
That is fairly new though. My mom got suckered into paying 100 bucks for mobile me and they are not giving refunds for hosing people.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nathantw:
The things I like about the phone are:

The large fonts. Great for people like me that have failing eye-sight.

A clean, uncluttered user interface.

Zune music/video. Love the bio on the music groups when it has it.

Xbox 360 access. Sending a message to my son to his Xbox 360 acct. is priceless.

Partial Excel and Word feature usage (something is better than nothing).

FAST and responsive menus.

Love the PEOPLE tile option. I like that Facebook is integrated with it.

Netflix and Youtube usage is great too.

Voice commands for phoning people or doing lookups is really terrific.

Hey all, i have an odd one that i wanted some opinions on. I've been working a convention for the weekend and have been using my desktop PC for audio work. Since the desktop doesn't have a wifi card, i connected my evo to the hotels wifi and then connected it to the desktop via PDANET. i've been running it all day, about 11 hours now and even though the phone reports 98 percent, it just clicked off. No warning, no low battery, just off. When i plugged it back in via wall adapter the battery reads 3%.

My assumption is that running WIFI drained more juice then the USB power could supply and this killed the phone. My question is, how come the phone reported a full battery and subsequently neglected to display any low battery warnings?
[EVO 4G General] rushco:
I tether using usb with pdanet 4 days a week anywhere from 6 to 12 hours. Never had that problem. Might be a setting to not charge while tethering.

Hello,

I recently installed UrukDroid, which is mostly awesome, except for one problem. SMB does not work. I have activated it using Urukconfig. On the stock, I had issues with it working with the files manager. I was able to fix this problem by installing Samba Network Fileshare. I tried doing this again, however, Samba is unable to execute shell commands. Anyone have a similar experience, and have any success fixing the problem?

Thanks in advance,

Haven't seen this posted so here is a hosts file for blocking ads. I removed the block in for CNN ads so the CNN app would still work. This would be for rooted users just extract the "Hosts" file and copy to /system/ect I recommend renaming your exiting file to hosts.bak. I use "Root Explorer" to do this. This will be useful to those who have installed the flash as now we have a boat load of ads.

Edit:

Read that it doesn't so kinda pointless if you know how to copy a file.

Adfree has been around for a while and has an advantage over copying files all the time - it updates the host file whenever you need it to.

thanks but not sure what you mean by "every time" every time what? I include it in my ROM so its there by default. Those who are using my ROM don't have to use any other ad blocking applications. It takes zero resources or memory. Also works on PCs.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] technomaje:
Stupid question. Do we leave it named ZIP, do we rename the extension, or do we unzip it and move the contents? I wondered why CNN stopped working right on my Xoom. Now I know. Great app by the way. Awesome job.

hello,

just flashed my galaxy with darkys rom 9.3. everything works fine but i want to try the honeycomb theme (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=958788)

downloaded and installed it via CMW, installation was succesful but nothing changed and there's still the normal theme...any ideas what's wrong?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sniperviperman:
darky 9.3 makes the system aps folder full.

like the steel blue team you probably need to remove loads of aps from the system -> aps folder to make room for any team.

use root explorer and write mount to remove aps you don't seem to use at all.

I had to free up till 50MB for the steel blue team to be fully installed.

good luck.

deleted some files and tried it again...but it still says installation succesfull without any changings (also with other themes) :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Bluephantom3:
Another way if you don't want to remove anything is to move the files of the theme into the rom while its still a zip file. just don't all any of the scripts. then when you flash Darky's Rom it will have a clean install with the theme already added.
