Recovery Reflash Tool
Available for linux, mac, and windows all at once. Also should support Evo, Incredible, and Aria, Eris, and Desire.
First steps:
1. You will need to make sure in windows at least that you have the proper driver for hboot:
http://www.unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php?id=public:windows_hboot_driver_install
2. HTC Sync is BAD news... If you have it, please uninstall if you have issues, or just for spite. It interferes with us communicating to the device randomly, also pdanet, doubletwist etc could cause issues. If it uses USB and you have problems, try disabling/uninstalling until after the reflash is complete.
3. When asked ALWAYS CHOOSE CHARGE ONLY, perhaps you should check remember this...

FAQ: http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked2
Help I'm stuck at waiting for system to settle
check these common issues:
- You switched your driver to the one from this post? It's NOT identical to the SDK one.
- You don't have any usb applications that might be taking focus while we are working with the phone right?
- Is the SD card present in the device?
- You did give su permenent access when you allowed it in superuser right?

more like incredible! unrEVOked is the cutting edge!
Flippin' Sweet! Can't wait
I can't frickin wait. I'm not one to check forums every 5 minutes, but I have been since root was achieved and recovery was announced. I did the same thing with the whole Jake Day fiasco. Needless to say I was very disappointed and angry afterwards. Unrevoked totally rules.
Re: Unrevoked team (coming soon): Recovery reflash tool
I'd be happy to test if you need someone with an EVO. Already rooted and all that fun stuff.
Been keeping an eye out here for a friend with a dinc.

It's coming soon, we are about to test on some users devices. No need to volunteer, we will choose folks out of the incredibleroot irc channel as needed.
Will be available for linux, mac, and windows all at once. Also should support Evo, Incredible, and Desire if we ever get someone with one to help test and set a few things. To clarify it will require that you have root already. If you don't, please proceed with the other method for now to get it until we have a better option (which still is in the works).
This will be the release thread. Subscribe if you like.

Gawd!~ You guys are awesome... I just hope the "In the works" people can lauch the method quickly because I still can't get root all methods and timing and sd cards and com port changes and EVERY other method hasn't worked for my Dinc.
Thank you all and keep up the good work we are all very thankful for your time and effort~!
Still new to android world. What will this tool actually do ?
Well it's primarily going to allow users with root to get around the nand lock and flash a custom recovery that will allow custom roms easily. As well as modifying system at will by rebooting to recovery with adb enabled inside it.

Will /system be rw while booted in android?
not until our next project completes, a special hboot to enable full nand write. For now we are just enabling it to flash recovery as the next step gets very dangerous.

So we will still have to jump through the same hoops to get into recovery mode? I did it once but can't seem to do it again so i have root access but haven't been able to remove all these crappy sys apps.
no, this will flash a custom recovery that ENABLES adb.... so you get it every time.

It sounds like the incredible team knew what they were doing and took there time with the programing.
Just another example why this phone isn't half ass done...
Can't wait for nand accesses and custom roms. Wish I knew more about programing and could help out...
I really just want to get root on this phone one time before I die... I have staired at loop.bat so much I'm dreaming in DOS...
Really I had a dream that I got root and passed the shell... I woke up and my wife asked me what was going on I told her I got root she laughed at me and told me I was dreaming. She now makes fun of me calling me a Nerd... She says most guys dream about women and I dream about rooting my Dinc.
I didn't mention to her it was two naked cheerleaders that helped me get root.
Great work guys!

Excellent job!
Excellent, all seems good and ready to go even before I get my device this week. Now we need someone to port CyanogenMod
Effin awesome! Device shipped out today, I can't wait to start modding!
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet!!!
Tested on my adam with pixel qi and wifi. It appears to work great! Although, the up and down is reversed. One more thing, you should port over the touchscreen calibration option from the stock recovery to cwm, then it will be complete.
Great work!
cant wait to test this out, anything in particular that needs testing?

ok, Thus far I have noticed adb reboot recovery now works from command prompt on windows 64bit, it didnt work with 3e. I will do a few other tests later.
Latest update on 02/06/11 fixes the backwards button issue.
Excellent work. This is quite essential for any further developments.

I redirect to that so I don't HAVE to update multiple sites. I can update one link and be done with it. By your standards, there is a lot of spam on XDA.
Do you not update these lines anyway:
Run the update.zip(named cwmod3005_020611.zip)
Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 for Notion Ink Adam - 020611
Its still spam.

I did this time, but as time commitments changed I'm not guaranteed to. Just like when people cross post anything I maintain on XDA to another forum. I ask them just to copy over anything they want except for the download link. Therefor, I don't have to go rounding up posts to make sure they are all up to date. They follow back to the one key place I'm maintaining them, which for the adam is notioninkhacks. The reason being the focused device forums give much more separate forum options, like bug tracking we are starting there. The reason I'm a mod is so I can test and move bug tracking items to forums.
Man, ungrateful, entitled, neurotic pricks like yourself make this hobby a lot less enjoyable.
Rothnic - please ignore daml. I don't understand why he's being so ungrateful. You're spending your personal time to release something that benefits the whole community. The rest of us appreciate the effort that you are spending putting together ROMS like this!
Keep up the great work and don't let the haters get to you!
Keep up the good work!!
Cant wait till my adam comes this week hopefully.. I will test and report anything out of the ordinary. Much love!!
Looking good - my Adam is currently 'shipping in progress' but when I get it this is one of the first things I'll be loading on there - great work!
Works great, thanks for this.
thank you.. works great for me. love the security of having my rom all backed up
Bay_wolf's AIO Vibrant Toolbox 2.5
If this program has helped you, please consider donating.
There is a new download link as the Multiupload one was broken so everyone should be able to download the file now.
Description: To help automate flashing custom ROMs onto the Samsung Vibrant.
MODS: Please do not move this to another section as this is for Android development and is installed on the users computer not the phone. Thanks!
Disclaimer: I'm distributing this program as-is and no guarantee that it will not hurt your phone. So, use at your own risk and don't blame me for bricking your phone. I am to not be held liable for any outcome of the use of this program.

Things to do/know before using this program:
When you select the PIT and PDA files, it should default to the installed location and if not then browse to where you installed AIO Vibrant Toolbox as the files are in there.
Have .net4 installed. Download Here.
Enable USB debugging mode- Go to settings> Applications> Development> And then check the box next to USB debugging.
Have the ROM of your desire downloaded to your hard drive (In the program, Select ROM means the custom ROM you downloaded.).
Know a little bit about flashing and ROMs.
And that's about it. Most of the instructions are given to you by the program and are not needed to be written out here. If you find any part confusing, please comment in this thread and I'll try to implement it in the next release and I'll tell you what it means as a temporary solution.
If you ever accidentally press the download mode button when you didn't mean to, just unplug your device and do a battery pull.
To perform a master clear using ODIN, after flashing the stock firmware back onto the device, leave the phone plugged into the computer and keep ODIN open. Just click Master Clear in ODIN. !This will wipe everything off of the built-in storage (besides the stock ROM and stock apps)!
Download
If there are any bugs PM me and I'll try to get them fixed.
Just in case anyone wanted them. Here are the drivers in a smaller and automated installer that I created. It's the same that's used in my program so if you have my program installed you don't need to worry about these. -32 bit -64bit
Donations are appreciated if you found this program helpful:
Changelog:
2.5 - Initial Release
Planned Features:
Smaller Download Size.
Smaller Install Size.

Thank you! I've tried to make it as beginner friendly as possible as I remember trying to flash my first custom ROM on my captivate and had to read for like 3 days straight to finally figure out an easy method to do so and figured I'd write a program to help others out.
Very nice bro. Keep up the good work!!
Initial release 2.5? no 1.0?
thanks for the program!!! i'm just messing with you.
can't wait to try it out.
looks like a fantastic app... I do have one question. Does the app take into account lag-fixes, particularly voodoo? From what I could see it does not and a new guy could easily rely on the app for protection in these regards. If not an in app disclaimer might be a worthy addition.
Great app and it will come in very to a lot of people.

Doesn't flashing back to stock with ODIN eliminate the lag fixes? That's what I always thought.

ANNOUCEMENT 05/18/2011 @8:33am: This mod is in BETA status. This means that if you do not know what you are doing, you should not be installing this. Knowing what you are doing includes, but is not limited to the following:
Working knowledge of ADB
Understanding of CWM and it's backup/restore functions
Understanding of what an SBF is and how to flash it
If you do not, at the very least, meet those requirements please do not install this onto your phone. This is a beta test, and I will not be supporting users who say, "tried to install but now my phone says red light and its really hot how do i make a phone text?"
I'm really not trying to be a **** about it, but these kinds of things should be researched and learned before you install ANY mods on your phone, let alone a beta release. There's plenty of available tutorials on all of these things.
UPDATE 05/12/2011 @11:31pm: b0.2 release. Fixed most of the bugs, combined the webtop fix into the full install. Webtop should work properly now, with LXTerminal icon in the top status bar. I prefer it that way, but you can invoke awn-manager from lxterminal and add a link to the bottom bar if you want. This should be safe to apply over b0.1. I'm changing nomenclatures. All mods like this are henceforth known as P-ROMs. And you will like it. I have spoken.
UPDATE 05/12/2011 @7pm:*FIXED* Made a patch for webtop breaking, install after the main zip. You can install both at the same time. Will merge the two files later tonight. File posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13729463&postcount=39
UPDATE 05/12/2011: *FIXED* Webtop breaks when you install this. It's recoverable, so if you don't use it that often or at all, don't worry about it. I should have a patch by end of day.
Stayed late at work and had some extra time, so I got around to putting this together. This is tested and is working perfectly on my device.
Quick feature list:
Deodexed
Custom boot logo
AppWidgetPicker (better widget management)
Enables sideloading
Ad blocking
Installs AT&T tethering APN
Enables desktop flash content, i.e. Hulu (You MUST install flashplayer 10.2 from market prior to installing the ROM. You must also use a browser that lets you set your user agent to Desktop.)
Clears Dalvik-cache
Removes the AT&T bloat
Disables background media scanning (speeds phone up a LOT)
Webtop without need for dock (through micro-hdmi cable)
Preferred install location for apps
Disables SD card mount sound
Enables ADB to run as root (still need further testing on this, not sure exactly how this is supposed to function)
Enables Google location services (does not send private information or drain your battery, it just allows apps to use cell location as opposed to GPS if a location is needed)
Lowers delay when placing a call (1 second as opposed to 2.5 which was just obnoxiously long)
Increases wifi scan interval
Decreases screen activation delay from proximity sensor
Increase RAM available to dalvik VM
Adds lxterminal shortcut to webtop, allows webtop customization
DISCLAIMER: THIS IS BETA. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. CONSIDER THIS A PUBLIC BETA TEST. PLEASE REPORT ANY ISSUES YOU HAVE HERE.
THERE ARE NO SCREENSHOTS THIS IS NOT A THEME.
Ok fine, have a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/syjpU.jpg
Read the disclaimer? Good. Download link is here. Install with CWM.
Awesome work. I was waiting for this. I like your rom more than ginger blur ones coz I know I'm gonna re-theme them anyway. Thanks again, I will try and report back.

Ill give it a shot tonight and use it over the next couple days, unless there is a major issue with it.
"Enables Google location services"
why?
isn't this just a waste of battery and a privacy concern?
Checking it out. Good work, man!
"1 second as opposed to 2.5 which was just obnoxiously long" LOL - agreed though.
Nice work!
I'm assuming this is still installed the old fashion way right?... I mean can I install it over the latest version of gingerblur? Or do I have to flash back to sbf 1.26 first then update via OTA before gaining root and then install it through tenfars recovery?
cwm = clockwork mod = tenfars recovery for the purpose of this discussion
flashing now!

Already identified a few issues with webtop. If you use webtop, avoid flashing this until I get it sorted out.

Yea, that's true.
Any way to get that fix for the call delay by itself? Im running GingerBlur right now and would love to have that.
Or, can I just install this right on top of Gingerblur as this isn't a theme?

You can try, but I don't recommend or condone the practice. It WILL remove any theme you have currently though, and it will replace any customized system apps with the stock versions. Just FYI.
The call delay fix is:
Code:
ro.telephony.call_ring.delay=1000
in build.prop

This is a beta release of a program I tossed together to make it easier to perform some common tasks on the HTC Vivid. It will:
Walk you through the Bootloader Unlock process
Capture your Device Token for submission to HTCDev
Apply the Unlock_code.bin file to your device
Root your device
I expect a few bugs, however I have tested it on my laptop with positive results. I was able to Unlock the bootloader and lock it again. Everything is bundled so you don't need the Android SDK. The goal was to create something similar to the multi-tool, but for OS X. This is also different from the other Mac tool as it isn't using Apple Script but instead Objective-C. The user should never see a terminal window if all goes well.
Report any bugs if you want, and I'll get them fixed asap. Remember this is beta and I'm not responsible for your device, etc etc etc.

No problem. I like little projects to try new stuff. I only tested it on OS X 10.7 but I compiled it for 10.6 so it should work with Snow Leopard. Unsure about 10.5 compatibility.

I'm adding CWM to the next version that will likely be out today. It will also have options to flash user-specified boot.img, system.img, and recovery.img files.
I got a message saying "You cant open the Application VividTools because it is not supported on this type of Mac" I am running a Macbook with MacOSX 10.6.8.
Thanks for the info, I'll take a look right away. If its an original MacBook it could be running 32-bit OS X, which may explain as the binary may have compiled for 64-bit.

Its a Macbook 1.1 that I got in 2007... So I'd say that probably the issue.
Thanks for this. I managed to unlock the BL with ease. I have not been able to root though. I see a green icon I would describe as "refresh download" and then a red exclamation "!". I end up having to pull the battery, then just boot normally. Tried it a few times; no luck.
Setup: OSX 10.7.3 / HTC Dev checkboxes enabled ( debug etc. ). Am I missing something? I usually am.
Thanks again.
I decided to test this while upgrading to ICS.
So I used it to relock my bootloader.
It said it was relocked succesfully but then said something about USB error. Probably because after relocking the phone restarts, so i think this was random.
After flashing the RUU, I tried to use this to unlock the bootloader again.
But it wasn't recognising my device. So I gave up and did everything manually whne finally I realised that the debugging mode wasn't on. Duuuurr. Turned it back on and the phone was recognised again.
However, rooting didn't work at all. It only took me to the Recovery screen. Nothing happened.
I loved the app, though. Finally someone's giving the proper attention for us Mac users. Hate having to borrow my mum's laptop in order to do the whole thing.
Keep up with the good work, you're on the right track
Failed to Root
It did not recognize my Vivid - no device detected.
Make sure you have USB Debugging switched on.
Have been testing out and seems to work well, the rooting section rebooted me to the recovery like someone else mentioned earlier.
I will keep an eye on this thread for updates.

About
The WinDroid Toolkit is a Windows program built in Visual Studio using the C# programming language that simplifies the rooting process for many Android devices. The toolkit makes it easy to unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery and gain permanent root. It also includes other functions such as flashing kernels, pushing files and installing apps. If you find it helpful, give me a thanks and a donation if you can. If you find a bug or have a feature request, feel free to leave a reply. Thanks!

No, since TWRP has not been released for the NP yet. The toolkit only unlocks bootloader and roots.

Will you be updating this soon since there now is a TWRP available for the NP? Looks like a super simple tool to use

I will definitely be adding TWRP flashing for the NP in the next update of the toolkit.
2.3 and 2.4 do not seem to be working. They keep suggesting that the Nexus Player is an htc device when attempting to unlock the bootloader
Any development here?

Can't even get mine to read
I get into recovery mode but then what? What steps from their because the device still doesn't get recognized.
Thanks,

WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit v2.5 Now Out!
I'm happy to announce that the WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit v2.5 update is now out! As always, let me know what you think and report any bugs you encounter! :highfive:

Do you have to have your NP connected directly to the pc for this? or can I ADB through the network?
just picked up a NP player today. installed the drivers and such as prompted when i started the toolkit. But just says "unauthor" at the bottom. says nothing is connected. Does the NP need to be plugged into a TV at the same time? I dont have a laptop so i have to plug it into my PC on 1 side of the room in order to use the toolkit.
I use the same toolkit and yes it has to be connected to a TV as you have to put the np in recovery mode. I modify them so you can get every channel available.
I just bought two of these awesome players had all sorts of issues with this toolkit even working and the other main toolkit nothing would unlock my bootloader..
Downloaded WUGfresh NEXUS toolkit and that didnt work either so i ran manual mode from wugfresh then did the unlock code myself low and behold it worked lol
we have had a nexus player for almost a year now and are currently working on a friend's to unlock the BL and root to put Kodi on for them. now... my question..
has anyone successfully unlocked the bootloader AFTER taking the 6.0 OTA? we thought "hey to make it easier on ourselves and them we will just leave lean back instead of going with lollirock, take the update and put kodi on for them" we were a little over zealous because now our desktop (linux)terminal won't recognize the device and we have tried mannnny cables we know to work.
any advice or anything helps.. you know how it is to get the gears turning ? hoping that we didn't update and now there's no way to do it. I have a feeling ..

You can unlock it via adb/fastboot, type the following in the command shell. Fastboot oem unlock. You may have to type it twice but beware as it will erase everything on the nexus player.
