When themes don't work.....help - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok, so this is the second time this has happened to me
I download a theme, rename update, and apply.
When I go to turn my phone on the boot screen comes up and all
and then 30 minutes later my phone is just a black screen
WHY
any and all help is appreciated

1) Wrong place to post quick questions, try Dream Q&A next time.
2) You're downloading a theme NOT meant for the rom you're using. This is the only way you'll get the black screen. Rom and theme versions HAVE to match, you can't just download any and all themes from here. If you're using the CyanogenMod rom's just flash the default theme template from the main post of his rom threads and it should load your rom back to normal.

my bad, i figured that since it was a question about themes it would be fine
and thanks

How can you flash when you cant reinstall it. The phone has to come back on in order to do that.

thx to KopyKatKiller
INSTRUCTIONS!
1.Your Device must be in DOWNLOAD mode to use ODIN.
2.Get your phone into Download mode by holding vol down and power.
3.THEN connect your phone to the USB. (some folks have had luck doing it in reverse..connecting the USB then Power and vol down)
4.Open Odin and load each file with it's corresponding field..PIT,PDA,CSC etc. (In this case we just use the PDA and PIT)
5.Don't check anything else, the other two boxes should be checked by default (Auto Reboot and Reset Time)
6.Hit "start"! be patient!
NOTE: COM3 worked fine for me. COM should not matter as long as you are using the correct drivers.
Finally we get some U.S love from samsung firmwares.
For those looking the Nandroid method it is in the post below but only recovers ,system, data, cache and datadata. Not your kernel/recovery or BASEBAND/RADIO (Modem.bin)

To Restore
1. Make sure you have clockwork recovery installed (To get Clockwork see this thread)
2. Extract files to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
3. Boot into recovery and select NANDroid and restore
Make sure to check USB debugging to enable ADB access after a restore.
This has been confirmed as WORKING before I uploaded. Any issues please post in this thread. Check MD5 as always after a download.
This will allow those that got stuck on a pre-release or EU ROM to go back to the shipped release TMO ROM for the Vibrant (JFD)
All the thanks goes to Koush for getting fakeflash working on the Vibrant allowing this to happen.
Came from the pre-release?
Flash the software in the first post via ODIN. The Pre-Release is garbage get back to JFD!!
Awesome.....You've just helped alot of people.
And now it begins....Nice to see you back bro!!

we don't really have any yet.. until this nandroid is posted.. the 'stock' roms that have been posted in other threads have all been a beta pre-release from MS_guru.. and in my experience.. its pretty buggy
Great. Lets see if it restores the people who were fooling with the pre-release and had to update to the EU version.
Let us know when its up. and, tested.

Thanks to Gilbar for putting this together!

Is this with 2e or 3e recovery? I'd like a stock JK2 deodex w/ untermensch's modified 3e recovery, but probably too much to hope for unless I do it myself.

It is with the 2e recovery, but the 3e from Untermensch is VERY easy to install. Just copy the "recovery" file into the /system/bin/ directory. If you use the version that disables checking, not the one with the key... it's slightly easier to install.
Brick!! help Odin not working.
Why do you want a deodexed rom? Deodexing slows it down. It takes less space but so what?

Recovery is not working on this ROM, I flashed it because someone was supposed to buy the phone from me this weekend, and this morning when I tried to get it into recovery, it just sits there and hangs at the Vibrant screen both if I am trying to get into recovery and trying to boot it up normally.
When I get off work I am going to try the ODIN version to see if I can't at least get it back to stock and get a recovery working with the ROM today. I will let everyone know when I get it working.
Flash the Rom, and install the install busybox app from the market. Install busy box, reboot and then see if you can get into recovery.
It's weird, but the same issue was encountered in the aospish Rom thread and that fixed it.
"if you amplify everything, nothing is heard"
See I would do that if it didn't hang on the Vibrant screen even when I am booting up without trying to go into recovery, and I don't have my laptop handy to be able to just try to adb reboot

Flashed the one from the first post, and it booted up fine the first couple times, then I tried to boot into recovery via quick boot, and that is when everything went to hell
All of these stock ROMs are getting stuck on the Vibrant screen when dealing with recovery. Does this happen if you use the updated 3e recovery?

NS4G Stock deodexed theme template 2.3.4

NS4G theme template
you can use it to deodex stock NS4G, you can use it to wipe a theme to ready your phone for another theme and as a theme template to base your theme off of. have fun..
THIS IS NOT A ROM!!!!!!
it only contains the:
Framework, font , stock apps
its just a template
As always do a backup before you do anything.
You can install through rom manager or through recovery.
how to: hit rom manager icon, thien hit install ROM from sd card, choose zip you want to install, make sure the wipe delvic cache is checked and hit ok.
if through recovery you must mount the system in the advanced menu.

Black screen. Help!

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and I got my Galaxy Note a few weeks ago.
And today I tried to root it, but I think somehow it went wrong, now my Note could be turnned on, but the screen just stayed black. No logo, just sounds. The two 'buttons' below would light up too.
Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Okay, I tried to root it using a pre-rooted rom, N7000DXLC2 and some md5 and tar file that came along with it, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly, my actual baseband is LR1 and the kernel is LR2.
At first, after attempting to root it, I kinda of did it successfully, I reached the green android alien place, but there's alot of pop up saying that this progress ended (something like that, couldn't remember.)
So I decided, to find and download my actual baseband's stock rom and try to use Odin to flash it, it succeeded, but the problem is, my screen is staying black this time, But I know that my phone is still working, just that the screen is not displaying anything..
Are you able to get into download mode?
When you tried to flash the rooted ROM in ODIN was it a 3 part file or a single file?
Did you setup ODIN correctly as per instructions on this site?

Are you on a complete STOCK setup? or custom kernel?
This is very odd - sounds like possible hardware fault if your phone is working but no screen - You definitely flashed the correct ROM yeah? I would still give a try to reflashing the STOCK GB via PC Odin..
Question - When you goto Download Mode - Do you see the Android Guy? If so there's something wrong with your flashed ROM and not a screen fault so a re-flash should resolve that..
+1, Definitely not a screen problem if you are able to go in download mode & see the green guy.

@OP, I think what messed up your phone is you inadvertently flash either a wrong kernel..(a kernel meant for GB but your already on ICS or the other way around as well)
had the same issue you have before... **** I flashed a kernel not design for our NOTE....
After that, my phone just stays black.. but I could actually go to download mode... so what I did? Flashed it back to GB stock and work my way from there...
Hope that helps something bud

[Q] HTC One Mini 2 Demo Unit, any way to remove demo mode?

Hi Guys!
So I got my hands on an HTC One Mini 2 Demo Unit. Don't ask me how or why. (NOT STOLEN!)
I have tried to get rid of the Demo mode app but without success.
This is what I have done:
Unlocked the bootloader
Flashed TWRP
This is what I have tried to do to get rid of the demo mode:
Wiping and factory reset from TWRP. About 1 minute after the phone has booted it autoinstalls the Demo Mode again. Before it does all functions is available etc, after the demo mode is installed some options and functions is disabled.
Rooted, Installed Xposed and module BootManager to stop Demo Mode from booting, no success the demo app still starts upon boot
Tried to uninstall the app with various root uninstallers, they just fail.
Tried wiping ALL partitions etc from TWRP and restored an original HTC One Mini 2 system dump from another thread, same thing. After about one minute the Demo application autoinstalls itself and some functions is diabled and the annoying demo mode starts now and then, and blinkfeed is full of sh*t, demo contacts etc.
After I reboot all settings etc is restored to it's original state.
Any ideas how I can force the phone not to install the demo mode after reset?
Thanks!
Update: Flashing the Cyanogenmod firmware from another thread does not install the demo mode and the phone works as it should. I can call etc. But I only have 3G not 4G, don't know if it has to do with the sim or not (borrowed a nano-sim from a collegues iPhone 5s).
But anyhow I would like to have the HTC firmware instead, any ideas?
Maybe someone has another system dump/ruu/firmware or any of the sort I can try. Perhaps the firmware I tried in the other thread also was a demo-firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55107684&postcount=6)

As you probably figured it was an app in the ROM so installing a custom ROM or reverting back to stock will get rid of the problem (as you've already done it)

Thank you for your answer. I have however tried to restore the original ROM and another original dump from this forum but the app installs itself anyway. Any idea where I can get another clean ROM or system dump?

I'd unlock it first on htcdev and then root and flash a custom recovery.
Then you'd either flash back to stock or flash a custom ROM.

CyanogenMod works but very buggy build, and either way I would like to have the original ROM or something close to it (Sense). Unfortunately there are no custom roms for this phone yet (other then CM). I have only found one original TWRP dump that I tried but the demo mode installed itself on that dump as well. I don't know why it installed itself on the original rom from this forum... Thanks

Sorry, my bad.
My understanding is that this is an app so if it's not in the ROM then it cannot run.
There are a few other custom ROM but if you want stock follow this by the letter.

Those instructions and ROMs are for the HTC One Mini and not the HTC One Mini 2. Also as far as I know there is no way to get S-OFF on the HTC One Mini 2 yet.

Mini 2 works the very same way (obviously with its own ROM)
Do some digging

Thanks! I will give it a try, does not matter if I brick it anyways. My fiance dropped it and broke the glass so I will get a new demo unit.

wow
I've flashed one two weeks ago (although not a demo unit but it was branded) it works OK
Changed several LCDs on Minis but not on Mini 2 yet.
Btw how much are the demo ones?

What ROM/Backup did you use?
For me, free but can't tell the source. :good:

Download stock rim flashable via twrp and open it using WinZip or winrar goto system/etc/ and delete '.demo' folder. Then repack and flash, problem solved.
no need for reading the whole thread. in twrp mount preload and by using the twrp file manager navigate to /preload and delete everything you can find inside! do a factory reset and flashing "org" firmware should be done...

I was going to do same thing, but how do you repack ? I mean I packed it with WinRAR, or 7Zip, but they compress the file, or maybe they don't pack it as TWRP format, so TWRP didn't recognise my file. Simply, how do you pack it ?

Open the zip file that you want to flash with any zip manager you like, you don't need to extract the files, just navigate to the folder and delete the .demo folder and it will automatically repack it. Close it and copy it to your phone and flash normally. It will work.
