Easy fix for this if you have another phone that your SD card will work in:
Put the SD card into an old blackberry or whatever phone you may have that the card will fit into, swap out the prop.mod with the prop.mod.bak; well that is assuming you make the original one .bak. I have an old BB Storm that I have plugged in my SD card and renamed files to update.zip.

Problem with jailbreaking my g1

Im sorry if i posted this in the wrong section; I have no clue where im suppose to post this ;\. Anyway, i followed this tutorial trying to jailbreak my g1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOo2V9qCauc. I downloaded the RC29(From the youtube tut) and put it into my sdcard and turned it off and on by holding the power and camera button. So i got to the part where it asked me to update my image but when i finished i got a update terminated msg instead of complete\successful. Then it kicked me to the colorful\rainbow screen with red green blue and white. I have no clue what i did wrong and no idea what im suppose to do now, can't turn off the phone or anything. Can somebody please help ;x! Thanks
I desperately wanted to post and say to say it failed bc you think your phone is an iphone (jailbreak). However, after reading your post i would say abandon a video and follow the root guide that is a sticky on here... look at the information thread above your post and look in there for the root guide.
When it says to get a recovery.img get cyans in the development thread. When it says get a rom, get cyans 4.0.2 stable cupcake... when you are all done i rec the community hero theme.
I typed all of that and this thread was right below yours

Dang i took out the battery and turn the phone back on but i went back to the update image part >_>; . No matter which choice i choose i end up at the colorful screen....(Choices are either update or not)
is your rc-29 named DREAIMG.nbh exactly named that caps and all. also is your sdcard formatted to fat32.
Snail....
I went to bed last night thinking you were fine. Could you post exactly what steps you have done? If you press red (power) + menu + green (call) your phone will reboot (no need to pull the battery).
Did you remove (delete using your computer) the .nbh file when you put the image and update.zip file on your SD? Did you get the files from the site you visited for the video?
I strongly suggest following my first post.
Just like everyone else said, follow our guides instead of some video on youtube. Make sure your card is formatted to fat32 and try to update again. If that still doesn't work it might have been a bad download. So download DREAIMG.nbh (RC29) again. You can check the MD5sum to make sure its a good download and update again. And by the way jailbreaking ain't the same as rooting.

These are the steps i've done
1.Copy and Paste all the files within my sd card to my pc.
2.Changed my sdcard into fat32
3.Dragged the dream.nbh or w\e that i got from the video tut into my sd card.
4.Turned off my phone by holding the power button.
5.On by holding power and camera.
6.Then i got to the update image part and pressed power to update, buy failed to update and now end up stuck at the color screen.
I've tried to reboot and everything but everytime i turn it back on it always goes back to the color screen T___T

Have you redownloaded the DREAIMG.nbh file. It was prolly just a bad download. Happens all the time, thats why you wanna check the MD5sum.

as mentioned before sub in Cyans recovery image version 1.4 *you will thank me* and Cyans 4.0.2 rom *you will thank me*

Yea I do its supremeteam256 on aim. I'm at work now so I can't do it on my computer and my phone signal might be hit or miss, but I'll still log on just deal with me if it shows me cuttin in and out. But what your going to have to do is either put the new DREAIMG.nbh on your sd card either by a card reader or another electronic device that you can transfer files over to the sd card. And the last option will be to mount your card using ADB and just push the file to your sd card. But as of right now it sounds like you can't access your phone because of the bad file. So once you get that file on your card then you would be able to boot holding camera + power and apply RC29. You'll be straight after that.
Yay got through with the image update part and now im stuck at the setup wizard part. Somehow my phone has problem with communicating with google servers when i type in my google account. And yes i don't have internet. I canceled it because i got this when it first came out and for the first 1-2months nothing worked on it such. None of the messengers work D:< so i had no use of internet so i end up cutting it xD.

You don't open it... it's utility

Change Screen Resolution on legend ???

is it possible to change the resolution of htc legend..........i tried lcd density but no use ...i am using azure cyanogen mod 6.....
i tried to edit the build pro..but no use
some one help me.......
Change Your Screen Resolution on HTC Evo 4g
I have successfully done this now. Remember that we don't have root in the same way that the EVO 4G does.
So:
Using any file manager that can read the / partition of your phone find and copy "/system/build.prop" onto your SD card.
Now copy the file to your desktop, and take a backup of that file too.
Open notepad and make sure word wrap is on, then open build.prop in notepad
Edit the required value (I chose 120), save and copy the file to your ADB/tools directory
Reboot your phone into clockworkMOD recovery, and connect your phone to the PC. Also go into the partitions menu of ClockworkMOD and click "mount system"
Open up ADB, and run "adb devices" to make sure the phone is connected and everything is working
Run these commands in this order:
adb push build.prop /sdcard/build.prop
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/system /system
cp /sdcard/build.prop /system/build.prop
Then reboot your phone.
Let me know if this helps

I dunno how I'd work it out, sorry.
Ah...
I think I've found the first of many flaws with this, and it was mentioned in the EVO 4G post. Some apps ignore this and use the old resolution, and thus don't fill the screen (see attachment)
As you can the the status bar goes a lot wider than the app. The status bar is the full width of the screen.
Other problems arise too, a reinstall of the app doesn't help, and some apps just end up completely screwed...

The resolution is the same - HVGA (pixels are hardware). You only change the dpi value which means that more things will fit to your screen but it will appear coarser than before.

Cool, thanks grandioso
On a slightly different note I've found that changing the value to 130, and using the 5 icon rows feature of launcher pro, is quite nice.

Thanks for clearing that .
There are some problems, but if you want to try it out, you can flash the update.zip I've just made.
160lcd.zip takes you back to default and 120lcd.zip makes your screen resolution higher.
@Briix
Can you make update for 130, like TheGrammarFreak suggested
I'd make one but I'm currently struggling to sign my .zip
EDIT:
Done it, just testing then I'll upload. I also notice that ROM Manager is one of the apps that ends up being screwed by this mod...
EDIT 2:
Wow, lots of edits. Anyhoo, 130lcd right here:
really nice

Has anyone tried GrammarFreak's zip ?
Are there any problems with it ? Is it worth the effort ?
Do I have to wipe for this to work ?
Explicitly my zip? Or any of the zip's in this thread?
No wipe is needed.
Also, this method is inherently flawed. Some apps just don't use the edited resolution. Unless a way can be found to force these apps to scale up then there will always be ugly moments.
One of the things that I've found to not work is the HTC-IME mod. So is it worth it? That for you to decide... Lol

I'd love to, but I can't at the moment, I'm at school and didn't bring my laptop. Unless someone beats me to it I'll make one in about an hour and a half; when I'm home.
I did try 140 myself but I didn't think it was worth it. I use 5 icon rows in launcher pro and the widgets started overlapping again. Like they did in the default resolution.

Would be great though if WF & Clock Widget (The Sense look Clock) would adapt to new screen and fill it out..

[TOOL] 1Click_CWR

I have made a small utility that will install CWR on the LG thrill. Untested on the optimus 3D....
Thanks to designgears for outlining the original procedure in this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257588
WARNING:
Your warranty is now void.
I take no responsibility for bricked, dead, or unresponsive phones. If you are uncomfortable using this tool, then DON'T. Furthermore, I created this utility for my phone, and decided to share it with the community.
This utility was coded in c# in a windows 7 environment. I can only speak to this working on windows 7. If it works on XP, great; but I only tested it on my windows 7 system. Confirmed working in XP by: gentzleon
Before you begin:
Phone must be rooted!!! Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1251663
Must have an SD card in the phone.(This is used for the storage of the recovery backup)
Drivers MUST be installed! ( Direct Link: Here)
Instructions:
1). Plug phone into computer via USB cable.
2). Turn on USB Debugging mode
3). Launch 1click_CRW with admin privilages (right click->run as Administrator)
4). Enjoy
Notice
Because people have different computer speeds and the fact I wrote this in 10 minutes, there is a pause between each command. Just click 'ok' when the popup messages says waiting.....Its fool proof.
ALSO: I did not put any error checking in it because I did not feel the need. I created this for fun and decided to share it.
If you see an error from ADB like no devices found, make sure your drivers are installed and restart the computer.

Freaking sweet. I was hoping to find something easier to do this with that having to go through the other method to flash GB Roms. That is what this is for right?
All those having problems installing, make sure all your permissions to /data are checked-(all 9) if not you will not be able to install recovery...
To set permissions you must;
Have root explorer or the free app ES file explorer.
---Navigate to /data and press and hold
---Select properties
---you will see at the bottome where it says permissions an option to change
--- Select change and make sure all are checked.,
---click out, reboot phone and it should all work..
There have been instances where the folder will change back permissions or not save the new permissions so just perform it again... Enjoy the 1 click CWM Now If this could be included in the script it will make it fool proof.....

I think I may change this app and create it in a windows form...I will have a button that follows the same procedure as it does now, and a second button to fix permissions..However, should I have it apply the permission change to the entire /data? Seems unsafe to me, but I'm paranoid.
Also, work has been long, and my wife and I are in the final process of buying a new house. So that is why I haven't been on much.

no but if you use full Linux...ie able to boot Linux up on its own and not through windows then u can access system files that way as it loads both the system and sd partitions up giving full editable access....not for the faint hearted though...even i don't like using that way lol.
And now as your getting a boot loop, which i did when adding both Xperia and HTC ringtones together found out, the only way is to wipe your rom and start again.
as a reference for next time....please do a backup!
ive given you the best options i know off....and i built the roms...i didn't expect someone to do what you just did...or i would have warned you off from it as i found out the hard way...just like you have.

no Linux must have its own drive.....putting it on usb wont allow you to do anything..
you have to install Linux onto a hdd an fully install it, takes a few hrs,
reason being, you need Linux to see and do everything without windows, running of a USB won't allow you to edit anything, just have a play to see if you u want it installing.
then you require the additional files/drivers to make your phone become recognizable within Linux, then you plug your phone in and up comes both partitions..

then you require the additional files/drivers to make your phone become recognizable within Linux, then you plug your phone in and up comes both partitions..

isn't it simple? Flash new rom and then flash that?
Read the while post throughout and then make your decision. Good luck if you do it.

I already screwed up my phone so might aswell
I think I got teh Bootloop again :/ that thing doesn't work...

Changed DPI and now phone stuck

Folks
I'm rooted and running Shamu 3.97. I used ADB to wrongly change my DPI. I ran the command
adb shell wm density 560480 (was using up arrows and by mistake didn't clear out the 560 before inputting 480)
Immediately, the phone rebooted and is stuck at the boot - little circles going around but doesn't move beyond that. Is there a battery pull that can be done on this device and what's my resolution? Do I have to somehow get into recovery and change the DPI to native 493?
Thx
You dont change DPi in bootloader or recovery, you need to edit it in build.prop or you can download dpi changer from play store
I got access to recovery but cannot boot the phone up since it just gets stuck on the rotating color circles. Any way to edit build.prop from recovery? I can see my Internal storage on my computer but can't find the build.prop file anywhere
did u do a backup on ur phone before dpi change? it could be u changed to the wrong dpi. Worst case scenario is flash back stock rom ...
