Hello,
I tried to install the GingerBread Sense ROM found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1107943
and I followed the instructions exactly, and now my G1 won't turn on, I get as far as the "G1 T-Mobile" screen.
I've tried a NANdroid restore and it takes forever and does nothing...
Can anybody please help me get it working again? :/
EDIT: No worries, sorry for posting
Went back to the Unlockr.com and used their procedure to start again complete;y

Hi,
I'm wondering if there's any proper way to unroot and put Legend to factory state again.
I have latest nightly cyanogen now.
I've tried several things (htc ruu install, flashing with stock rom, flashing with indigo bean, etc.) but every and each one of them finished with nothing - phone with question mark is shown and then it reboots.
So, none of this works. The next thing I want to try is to flash with modaco's custom rom via their instructions - maybe this will work? Is it any good idea?
I just start to wonder if I can break something by trying this stuff over and over.
Any tips?

I assume you'll have to flash to a rom such as modaco's. Well any rom that still has all the HTC sync and tethering rubbish still on it. As this is used to detect the phone when you run the ruu .exe files to flash back to stock.
Can anyone back me up on that? Also shouldn't this thread be in general?
Try this tutorial

I am not sure if it works, but give it a try. Hope it helps.
I'll write you a guide for the easiest way to unroot very shortly..

a few weeks back i got an update from t-mobile i think it was 2.2.1. i was running a custom rom by evil, I think it was sense. it never fully installed as it came up with a black scrren with a exclamation mark and a little android guy. every time i go into recovery now, i get the same thing. this also converted the phone back to stock rom.
im sorry, but i am a newbie when it comes to flashing new recovery images. do you think this is what needs to be done? i had clockworkmod's on there before, had a buddy do it for me.. and he didnt explain to me how to fix install it lol. i do install roms etc.
any way i should go with this?
You guessed right, you need to reflash the recovery, and possibly re-root before that.
You can follow the guides in Wiki, found in my signature.
did it, having a problem installing roms now :| gonna post in that roms thread.
Hello everyone,
New user here. Have had my Rogers Captivate for a few months now. So far I've been able to find everything I needed by searching the site.
I do have a quick question though. I recently tried backing up my phone through rom manager (Backup Current Rom) and found that because I was on Rogers Froyo 2.2 that I had a patched recovery file. I then found the thread on replacing it with the 2e version, but in doing so I must have messed something up and my phone would not boot.
I proceeded to use the Odin One Click installer to flash my phone back to stock 2.2, but soon realized this was AT&T version. I found the stock Rogers 2.2 and used Odin to flash to that.
My problem is that I now have an AT&T boot screen show up for a couple seconds when the phone is started up. Not really a big problem, but would like to get it back to how it originally started.
So I did some searching and found the thread Here on how to get it back.
I read most of the thread and came across this post.
So my question is, can I just download that md5 file, flash it with Odin (PDA) and I will be back to how the phone originally booted?
Sorry for the long winded post, but I just want to make sure that I get this right and don't brick my phone.
Any help is appreciated, and as I said, I have searched extensively but it wasn't 100% clear to me if this is the approach I should take.
Thanks a lot!
Take a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11039455#post11039455
This is incredibly easy
I used it a couple of times without any problems.
Maybe this I896 bootlogo from the op of the "get rid of AT&T logo on your I9000 rom" thread could be a nice replacement for the at&t logo.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=458488&d=1291752110
I saw that thread but it says for i9000 based roms.
I am running the Stock Rogers 2.2 rom so I didn't think I should follow that guide
So can anybody shine some light on my original post? I'd really like to get rid of the AT&T logo on boot, and with the luck I've had so far, I want to make sure I understand this 100% before trying anything.
Thanks for the help
While trying to update my Galaxy Tab's Overcome mod using the instruction on the site, I failed to read the part that said "Do note that you should NEVER update Overcome ROMs across different bases, like 1.4.x to 1.6.x or God Forbid, 1.4.x/1.6.x to 2.x! You need to do the full-shebang listed below…". When I tried to boot up the Tab, the standard T-mobile screen came up, followed by the picture attached. Does anybody have a possible fix for this?
*sighs* thats why we say read the guide fully before attempting to flash. Do that first. After you're done read it again. It will tell you everything. Start by booting into download mode and restocking to the stock firmware then follow guide directions word by word to install FULL overcome.
PS make sure your tab is well charged and your FINAL warning: REAd THE GUIDE!
Thanks...but how do you restore to stock firmware? I can't seem to find a guide that makes sense to me (I'm new to this). I don't really want to attempt to follow the guide and mess up again...

Sorry for all the questions, but, after restoring to stock and following the install instructions for Overcome v2.0.0, my Tab has been stuck at the "the Overcome experience" screen for quite some time now. When going through the instructions, there was only one step I did not follow exactly; on step 6, instead of letting the Tab automatically reboot (it never did), I manually rebooted it. After that, I put the zip folder on an external sd card (the Tab would not boot and instead stayed on the "android" screen) and installed overcome...Should I restore again?
Hi everyone.
I have an Optimus 2x, and when i updated it to 2.3.4 i could not use superoneclick to root my phone instead i found an answer on how to root it.
I needed to install cwm 5 and after that busybox and so on, and it worked, it was rooted.
Now i have a other problem, i have an update on my phone and when i click on installing it starts to reebot then it comes to cwm screen, there i'm stuck.
I have tryed everything there trying to update it but nothing works.
So now i am wondering if any of you can help me?
Got any idea what i can do to update or what i am doing wrong?
//Szander.
Ok, so now i did a recover so i get back my phone as it was before i installed cwm and tryed to update, it did work fine.
Until the update was done, then it stopped, and nothing i did worked the little android just stand there and looked at me.
So what now, i removed the battery and hoped for the best, now the phone would not bot at all.
After a few tears and a few swear words, i thougt about something, maybe i could use nvflash to get it all back as it was ???
I tryed closed my eyes and after a few minutes i could restart my phone and it loaded as useall, but the update was gone, ofcourse.
So now back to square one again.
Sigh (
Hi Szander,
So just to be completely clear, you're back at a perfectly stock 2.3.4 unrooted ROM and you want to root it, right?
Why not trying to follow cyanogen wiki to root it?

No.
I have cwm, and its still rooted.
What i want is to get rid of cwm so i can update to the latest update wich is v20q.
I have tryed this with recover but its only working on froyo, i belive i read it somewhere.
And when i recovered my phone then the problem really started, but thats fine now.
And as an plus is that now when i run LGMobileupdate tool its saying that i have v20q but in the phone it says that i still have v20I.
Weird.
I have read alittle more and (if i got it right) found out that i might just need to use smartflash on the phone via my computer to get rid of cwm and get a perfectly stocked phone again.
So can you help me please, hoping that you understand my problem.
Yup, as far as I know you are correct. To get your phone back to stock you need to flash a stock ROM using either smartflash or nvflash. I haven't done it so I can't guide you through it personally, but search this forum you should find the relevant threads easily enough.
If you have trouble finding it let me know I'll help you searching.
