Super Waffle posted:Thanks for the links, I was making good progress until I got to step 3 of the Clockwork Recovery mod method down there at the bottom. For some reason the phone wasn't booting into Clockwork mod, but instead the default Motorola boot menu? I didn't realize it until I had already reset the phone to factory default (Step 5), and by then the boot agent wouldn't load Cyanogen mod. Now my ADB won't recognize the device when I plug it in. Is Clockwork Recovery still installed on the phone or did I wipe it? How can I start over if ADB won't recognize it? The Cliq XT, oddly enough, looks like it's one of the few Moto devices that you can completely replace the stock recovery: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Motorola_Cliq_XT:_Full_Update_Guide CWM apparently was never installed on your phone because it was rebooting into stock recovery. Something may not worked properly in the rooting process, else ROM Manager would have been able to flash in the new custom recovery image. In order to completely restore your phone, you'll need RSD Lite (current version is 5.7) and a system SBF file. SBF files are essentially complete stock system images that'll restore you from almost any brick situation. It appears that there's 1 source left for SBF files for your phone, but their site is under maintenance. Keep an eye on it in case it comes back up: http://modmymobile.com/forums/561-motorola-cliq-xt-general/530321-cliq-xt-quench-firmwares-superthread.html

Trying to get bugless beast to boot on my verizon gnex and im having some trouble. I was running another JB version that decided to stop booting, so went back to 4.0.4 stock. Reflashed CWM, flashed Bugless, and its endlessly at the new nexus boot animation. I have no idea what kernel I flashed (Whatever was recommended.) Now, I used the toolkit to download, and reflash 4.0.4 then did the above to go to bb. Any ideas? Im loving confused at this point. Edit: tuna-jb-kernel-019b6.zip Was the kernel i used. Any suggestions? I'm thinking thats my fix. EbolaIvory fucked around with this message at 06:18 on Jul 24, 2012 |

mushi posted:edit: welp, got heimdall working and now my phone thinks it's from Europe and isn't getting a cell signal but at least it's booting. Confident I can figure out how to get root back and figure something out, but gotta leave for the night. Ah well. The software worked fine, except I didn't have a cell connection. I'm assuming because my phone thought it was a european or korean model or something. Anyway, I was pretty sure I could root it again to try and go back to my stock rom which I had backed up. One problem I'm having from this point forward is that holding down both volume up and down and powering on does not put the phone into download mode. Next step, I tried various things to get to root, but the Super One Click Root didn't work, and now I tried the GalaxyS One Click Root. This worked to get the phone to reboot into Android System Recovery console on boot. The problem is that the directions said "scroll down until 'reinstall packages' is highlighted and select that option" and there is no "reinstall packages" option. To make matters worse, up on the volume key makes the selection go down, the down key makes selections move up, and the power button is doing exactly jack poo poo. I can't get it to cycle out, boot, or do anything except power on to the Android System Recovery. Holding down the volume up and down keys still does not get it into download mode. How the hell do I get myself into something where I can make some changes? Is there a different way to get into download mode or something I can try in the system recovery? Here's the output I see on the phone: code:
edit: the leftmost "option" key on my phone toggles the text display on and off, with a caution sign plus cute green robot in the background, if that gives any clues Any ideas? mushi fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Jul 24, 2012 |

You flashed an i9000 rom on your Vibrant. What will fix it is a reoriented kernel or an actual Vibrant firmware. You need to flash one of these with Heimdall, because I assume you do not have a rooted recovery. Download mode can be achieved by turning off the phone, holding volume down (up?) and inserting a USB cable that's plugged into your computer.

EbolaIvory posted:BB isnt flashing the kernel then. Because it still says "tuna" at fastboot and BB wont boot. That's really odd. His ROM includes his own kernel so I'm not sure why it would still report as tuna. Honestly, his kernel with his ROM is a pretty kicking rad package. I never felt like I needed to change. But along those same lines, I'm of the opinion that the stock kernel is awesome too. So there's that.

Try holding both volume buttons in at the same time and repeating the process. If this doesn't work, you have two other options: 1. Set up ADB on your computer. When that is done and the phone shows up, type "adb reboot download" and it may work. 2. Purchase a download mode "jig" on eBay or Amazon. These are inexpensive. What they do is put a specific resistance load through the USB port that the phone's motherboard will recognize, sending you to download mode. You could also make your own as the instructions are easily searchable and the parts are easy to acquire.

Anyone aware of any solid/feature-complete, unmodified stock roms for toroplus? Or does everyone have to stick me with the job of having to go hunt down the default boot animation and throw that on there instead of the stupid-rear end ACS logo or whatever some other asswipe thinks looks cool? I thought I saw one (well, 'Toroplus nightly kangs') and then noticed people were saying that going into the settings was crashing their phone, and that their photos weren't syncing with G+. That wasn't at the beginning of the thread, that was on the last page.

I could probably do without the G+ sync for a bit, but if it fucks up NFC that's a straight deal breaker. The vending machines at work take NFC and cards, but not MasterCard due to some weird processing fee increase. None of my cards are Visa/Amex/Disc so I either carry Scrooge style bags of change or use NFC to get my bottled water.

Absolutely love the transition animations and whatnot. Been running it with the JB build of the Air-Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1469842), and all is well. Only thing I've noticed so far is that if you are using NSTools to control governor and etc, the option to change governors is grayed out unless you reboot into recovery, go under Advanced options, and use the fix permissions.

Why does Android market insist on updating apps that I know I have already updated? After updating certain apps several times, they still insist on coming back as being listed as needing the same updates. This problem has persisted through AOKP roms on ICS and JB roms. Is this a problem that all ROMs have, or just Android Market being stupid?

Hey all, I'm new to this thread, but I've been rooting a friend's Android models for him right after he gets them, and he passes the down to me after he upgrades. I just put AOKP on my spare G2 (from here upgrading from Cyanogen 7.1. I am going to give it a try as my phone, we'll see how I like it. So far, only using WiFi due to having my sim card in my usual G2, and G+ and Gmail crash right after startup pretty reliably. It's the best-sounding ICS ROM for the G2 in my opinion, so I hope it works well enough to keep.

I finally rooted AOKP Jellybean on my Galaxy S III and I can say it's a game changer. In my opinion it's a perfect user experience. It's butter smooth and so responsive. Google Now is one of the best ideas I've ever seen. It integrates so well into your life. I can walk close to a bus stop and it automatically tells me when my next bus is coming. If I have an event coming up it will notify me when I need to leave so that I make it on time. Obviously that's just scratching the surface of what it can do, but it is so useful. The most important thing it does for me is it let's me think about other things than my schedule. I had major buyers remorse when I used the stock Rom with the S3 but I am so happy now.

I have several files I needed on there and I'm sure they are saved in my backup. Is there any way I can extract them from my backup without having to root this phone? If not, what do I need to do?

Okay, I posted a few days ago about my misadventures installing firmware for the wrong hardware and soft-bricking my Galaxy S Vibrant. I'm learning a lot doing this, but my phone is still inoperable. Alright, so I got a jig off e-bay getting me back to download mode and managed to reflash my Vibrant back to stock. To recap: I managed to flash Gingerbread for the wrong hardware onto my vibrant, which worked, but my phone thought it was for a GT i9000 from europe or something. In the process of trying to root it, I managed to get it stuck in a CMW (or other boot loading program) boot loop. I got a jig off ebay, got it back to download mode, and managed to re-flash this thing back to stock. Still got problems. 1) my sim card is saying it's not connected. Is it possible that through the various flash processes I've managed to work through, I overwrote my SIM card? Is there a way to recover it, or do I need to get a new one from T-mobile? 2) the initial boot still says "Galaxy S GT-i9000" on booting briefly, then goes to the Vibrant stock boot text and then the normal stock boot pattern. What remnant of the wrong ROM flash is causing the GT i9000 portion to show up? Will I run into any issues, or if I root and try some different ROMS, will it fix itself? mushi fucked around with this message at 05:30 on Jul 28, 2012 |
