need rooting help please - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all I am following the info for this rooting method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544654 when i get to the section where i try and type comands in with the phone in fastboot i get errors saying cant load radio.img and it won't find the device with "adb devices" command but it will find it if the phone is on and running and pluged in to usb its a rogers htc dream using sdk 1.6 any ideas ?

what kind of phone do you have?

He has a rogers htc dream.
If it says it cannot load the .img make sure it is in the folder that you are operating from. If that still doesn't work, then make sure you have adb/fastboot properly set up

there is a sticky in this section and it points to another guide if you can't get it with that one.

I think the problem is getting the computer to recongize the phone in fastboot mode because when I try adb devices it returns a device but when the phone is completly booted but will not return device in fastboot runing windows sdk 1.6 and I updated the driver

the phone wont be recognized as a fastboot device if it is fully booted. It has to be in fastboot mode to be recognized. Boot phone into fastboot (back+power) then your 3 androids skateboarding screen. it will say fastboot. plug in your cable and it will say fastboot usb. then try fastboot devices.

Should it matter when I plug in the usb cable have tried putting it fastboot mode already pluged in and it says fastboot usb but the commands don't work should I plug the cable in after fastboot is started

It shouldnt matter.

allright got all the steps to work except for install the new update it gives me errors and says "e:can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(bad)
installation aborted"
What am i doing wrong?

you need some vodka, it will all work out ok then

HTC One Bootloop after rooting

i Have the HTC One (m7ul) . it is free of any carriers
i am relatively new to all of this .
so i unlocked the boot loader via HTCDev and put in latest twrp.
i got cyanogen mod version 10.2 since its the latest STABLE version.
upon trying to install the ROM from twrp , it showed me -
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: No MD5 file found.
Veryfying zip signature...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") ==
getprop("ro.product.device") == "m7ul" |
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/'
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/airdroid/upload/cm-
Updating partition details...
Failed (under the box)
and i had already done a wipe so i have no OS
so it gets stuck on the *HTC-quietly brilliantly* screen
i have a mac running 10.9 on Intel i5 (if that helps in any way)
so i tried pushing the files after seeing some tutorials but was unsuccessful with the errors in terminal saying that the command is incorrect
later i got another tutorial - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237
and i followed the steps and used the files this user has uploaded and got this.

Please help me.
To be honest, it just sounds like you got a bad download.
Download the rom again on your computer, and push it to your phone in fastboot mode. Make sure that the phone says "fastboot usb" as that ensures that the phone can be seen by the computer when you plug it in.
Then try flashing it again.
Also, when you push the newly downloaded rom, just put it on the root of your sd card and flash it from there.

adb devices must return one device before you can use adb push.
Not familiar with Mac, but try:
1. another usb port (direct to motherboard, no hubs)
2. restarting computer
3. reinstalling adb-sdk
* adb is not available in fastboot / hboot / bootloader

I am on osx 10.9.1 and use homebrew for my android-sdk needs ... Are you familiar with homebrew? if not, head over to brew.sh and carry out the installation of the script. I suggest you remove all previous android sdk installations from your mac prior to installing homebrew.
Once you have installed homebrew, run 'brew install android-sdk' from within terminal and connect your device then run 'adb devices' to view the connected devices and finally run 'adb push FileNameYouWantToPush.xxx /sdcard/LocationYouWantToSaveTheFileInOnYourDevice'
FYI - to keep your new android sdk installation up 2 date simply run 'brew update'
However, If you prefer to use android transfer from google, then follow the instructions here
Hope this helps!

USB debugging doesnt matter in custom recovery.
adb push <name of ROM>.zip /data/media/0/
or
adb sideload <name of ROM>.zip
you can always try googling, and come up with a few tutorials:

fastboot commands work in bootloader
adb commands work in custom recovery (eg TWRP) or booted up ROM (with USB debugging enabled)
so if you need adb then enter custom recovery, check your device manager again, because it changes depending on where you are (bootloader, TWRP ... even version matters, or ROM)
once in TWRP, and device manager is good, adb devices should return you serial number and "recovery" -> then you can use adb commands

[Q] help Reverting back 2.3

I have a serious problem, I installed the B133 and now the update and has left me a window constantly open
"Sorry, Unfortunaly the process com.android.phone has stopped." and do not let me do anything
I already restored but I get the fine not to the cust, any ideas?
how the Reverting back 2.3
I got the same problem and I can't go back to 2.3,pls someone help us :/
GuyS
Try to flash 2.3 recovery and dload it..
How do I flash it?I don't understand how because of huawei that is too complicated..
You need adb tools, google how to install them and enable USB debugging. After installing put the recovery image into the adb folder and type
cd c:/[position of the adb folder]
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
Fastboot flash recovery recovery[name of recovery].img
Fastboot reboot
The problem is that I simply can't do anything when my phone is on!I only get a message that says "unfortunately com.android.phone has stopped" so I can't go to the settings and enable the usb debug mode
Boot the phone pressing volume down and power let's you directly get into the bootloader.. So just use the two Fastboot orders
So,I'm on the bootloader..Now when I try to open fastboot on my pc,only a black tab appears and disappears after a sec,is that normal?

u need to be in bootloader.. and those your typed commands are nonsense .. type ; fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (when u copy your 2.3 extracted ..
Edit : Sorry, nonsense. Didn't saw post above
This is what i get.. View attachment 3078641
And by bootloader you mean the system recovery?Where I can do a factory reset?
Type: Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then you are able to flash another firmware or to do a Factory reset
I typed it several times,but I don't understand why it always shows "cannot determine image filename for recovery.img" like on the screenshot I posted earlier,I don't understand because I moved the recovery into the ADB folder
edit:It worked when I deleted the second adb folder I had earlier..But now the thing is that it stays on "waiting for device" even if I'm in recovery mode
You wrote a couple of things, but not those four words...??!

I think I mentioned the mistake. You need administrator rights for this procedure, it looks like if you run cmd as a normal user..?

Kindle Fire HD (Tate) stuck in Recovery

Hello community I need your help!
I was running CM 12.1 on my tablet and I wanted to make a factory reset, well... I did and because the tablet has to restart, it did and since then I got stuck on the TeamWin logo page
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And I cannot go to the option, it just stays there
This are some of the output I get from ADB
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb devices
List of devices attached
0123456789ABCDEF recovery
And if I uses "adb reboot fastboot" it does, but then the output of "adb devices" and "fastboot devices" is null
I have tried a lot commands, but I always get the same results <waiting for device>
My drivers are working.
I already unplug/plug/restart the table but the <waiting for device> is still there
I still tried with this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254 but it doesnt work, event trying a fastboot command manually doesn't work.
Any ideas!! please help!

I have the exact same problem i have been trying all day to find a fix but no luck D;
Fixed it DUDE I Kinda Found A Fix i can know access TWRP DDD
1. Download This https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B4lZE...xport=download
2.connect kindle to pc and boot up the kindle normally
3.extract the Zip and open tha bat file
4. select option 4 It should then say waiting for device
5.open up cmd adb and type adb reboot-bootloader then it should say clearing cashe or user data then after about a min power off ur device then power it back on
6.then it should now say clearing cashe or user data On of them then after a min switch of ur device then back on and team win should load the next problem is that i cant send files through to my kindle so i cant flash anything. maybe i need newdrivers cna someone link me to one.
Edit; reboot The device again and it should boot into cm12 but once again im stuck in a boot loop and unsure of what to do the boot loop is just the cm12 logo it does not go onto the actual os
nvm lol wait about 5 mins it should boot.
