Hey guys, I've been able to get back to stock using fastboot commands so I can install the new VZW update, but as a couple of threads on here have already pointed out, the system.img needed to go back to stock is too large to be flashed without being broken up... I can't use RSD light, as I only have access to a mac at home AND work (I know, I know... ). I've done a bunch of searching on here and it looks like my best bet is to use motofastboot, as it will break up the size of the file. I downloaded the 32 and 64bit motofastboot files but am kind of confused as what to do from there. When i execute the file it just gives me the list of the available fastboot commands, the same I've been using in "normal" fastboot this whole time, but beyond that I have to open a new window to type anything new and when I do I can still only use "normal" fastboot.
So, fastboot flash system system.img won't work for me, as the file is too large. For guys with macs, what command do I use to force moto-fastboot instead? I figure I have to do some preliminary commands to get my mac to understand moto fastboot, I just don't know what those commands are...
Any help would be appreciated, thanks so much in advance!

I'm sure that means you found the thread I posted on the topic. I was bored so i scrolled through the Q&A but for future reference, you can just post in that thread and I would have seen it and replied to you to help you out. If it didn't get resolved there. Then maybe you could post another thread. You can either pm me or post over in that thread and I can help you out. Also, explain what you mean by "beyond that I have to open a new window to type anything new."

I did see your threads, thanks! I'll PM you, I have an idea of what I can do but can't verify it til I get home to attempt later this evening. A mod can delete this thread since I put it in the wrong place- sorry about that!

please help a newb out

I would like someone to explain to me in detail how to get the other lockscreen for fresh 2.0b i would like the non-sense one. someone tryed to explain to me that u need to use sdk. which i downloaded but i dont know what to do from there i unzipped onto my desktop now what?
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how+to+delete+htclockscreen
I would mind a guide as well. Or at least a confirmation that what I find on google works in 2.1 roms...
edit: i mean the nexus style lockscreen
I would say dont mess with it. Sounds like you are not sure what ADB is and haven't really done your reading.
There are ways to backup files and restore files to change the lockscreen. Hell, there is a thread on page 1 or 2 that talks specifically about lockscreens.
Please do some reading, the info is right in front of you.
i looked on the wiki guide but it really isnt detailed. i have no problem learning how to do this and really would like to but the guide isnt specific

buy root explorer from the market and go to system/app/htclockscreen.apk and hold onto it and delete. after that then reboot
Agree

I agree, I am fairly new to the Android and I was able to get through the initial steps of rooting it and flashing it however, I want to know the details.
Do I need to reinstall my programs every time or is there provxml like Windows Mobile had?
I partitioned my SD Card because the option is there but what is it for? Why is there a need to adb push some items vs just copying data directory on the card from the usb connection.
Why can't I get Live Wallpapers to work even when I disable Sense UI via home switcher?
The Wiki is great for some of the how's but I am missing some of the why's. And where I can go. Then if you go to a thread, the people on the thread are usually pass the point I wanna know and refer to it in passing.
Sorry OP, I don't have an answer to your question, but just many questions of my own. Now, I admit I could have missed the information somewhere on here but usually that kind of thing is sticked but this forum chooses not to use Stickies.
Thanks for any help you've got.
Not sure what to tell you. The information is here for you to read. There are a ton of devs on this board that are doing a ton of stuff most of us dont know. This is a development forum, meaning they are de-compiling tweaking and recompiling. What you are looking for is a 101 class but these discussions are mostly 501 material.
Android is based on Linux. If you know that you have a leg up.
If you find a guide that teaches how to understand this stuff, please share it with all of us. Most of what these guys are doing is from lots and lots of experience and lots and lots of trail and error.
Hell, there are people that have gone to the lengths to write countless guides on rooting, pushing and pulling files, hell there is even a guide on how to compile your own ROM.
The information is there. Lots of it I don't understand either, so I sit back and try to answer what I can answer, most of which is just posting an answer someone else posted and I read because I have read a LOT!!!.

It depends. Don't know what that program is. There are backup programs that you can buy that will do backups. You only lose your apps when you do a wipe. Please read more and understand what you are doing before you do it.

Now you are setup for apps2sd. I don't use it, I don't like it. I don't know if you can go back without reformating your SD card.

If you are asking about LWP, then you are running a 2.x ROM but have not read the entire thread about that ROM. Please search that thread for Live or LWP etc.

You will have a very hard time getting answers to any "why" type question when dealing with programming. Most of the time I get from my devs is "why not" or "cause that's what I felt like that day"

There is a guides stickie, a rom stickie. Not sure what else you are looking for.
My advice, if you do not know what you are doing, dont do it. Dont flash a radio unless you know what that will do. Keep reading until you understand what you are about to do.
i tryed using root explorer app and hold then delete but it says it is a read only file and can not be deleted?
I agree with a lot of the posts I have seen so far regarding the information existing and having to spend the time to find it. It was a bear for me to figure out how to sign zip files so that i could customize ROMs, but after spending nearly 6 hours going from one site to another and one thread to another, I finally pieced it together and can sign zips. In the meantime, i also learned a lot of other things too because as someone else mentioned here, a lot of times a thread is full of stuff, but only references something that they might be interested in at that particular moment.
Unfortunately, this is an advanced forum and lots of the people on here have taken the time to learn things by just "putting in the time"... You need to do the same thing and use search 5 ways from sunday to find what you want... if 10 pages into a 50 page thread you haven't found what you want, you still need to finish the last 40 pages, click all the links in the threads and make sure you've searched things in that thread that you can't find after finishing it... then you do it all over again on another thread.
Guides are nice, but if everyone spent time making guides, development of ROMs etc. would suffer as this is not easy stuff until you figure it out and make it work and there is no truly easy way to make a guide that is multi-faceted.
Maybe if you learn things on your own, you can piece together all the different places you found the pieces you needed to do what you wanted and create the guide...

Programs like Google Maps, like Google Voice, like Google Goggle, like Advanced Task killers...standard programs that I would want to have on my phone everytime I flash a new ROM. The two ROMs I've had both required wipes.

Now if its title implicates its meaning, I think it might be answer to the question up above, but I haven't been able to find an explanation of what it is. Maybe that's my impatience. I did look in the guides on the WIKI and although there is an explanation about how to switch an Apps2SD card, there is no explanation of what it is or how to use it.

Don't get me wrong. I don't want to reverse engineer the code. I do wanna know why I need to, for example, partition my card to use Apps2SD. I do want to know why I need to adb push.

Joker,
I'm willing to try to walk you through it step-by-step if you want me to. Are you running Windows? If so, have you downloaded Android SDK Windows? Once you've downloaded that, put it in the C:\ directory of your hard drive and let me know. I'll try to make this in plain English. I'm rather new to Android myself, but this is a rather simple task if you have someone willing to explain it to you. I'll give it a shot.
Please connect your phone and select the HTC Sync option. I forgot to mention in the previous post that you should have the most recent HTC driver installed on your computer. If you have HTC Sync installed, you should have the driver too. When you connect your phone and select HTC Sync, it will search for Sync but not find it. This is ok, just acknowledge the prompt on your phone.
Next, open the Command Prompt. One way to do this is to go to the Start Menu ---> Run and type: cmd
This should open the Command Prompt in a new window. Next type each of the following lines into the Command Prompt and press Enter at the end of each line.
cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app/
rm HtcLockScreen*
exit
adb reboot
Once you press enter after the reboot, your phone should reboot with the Android 2.1 lockscreen. If you have any questions or problems, feel free to ask. I'll try to check back and answer whatever I can. Good luck.
i got it to work thanks so much everyone for your help!

Sony Xperia LT30AT rooting guide

I have noticed very little specific LT30AT rooting support here (maybe I missed it, I am new)
I spent a few days here trying to root and it took me combining 3 threads to do it for my specific Xperia.
I have made this little guide for you out there with the pleasure of being stuck with AT&T and want to get the most from your TL
If this is in the wrong spot or anything just move it or delete it. Okay, lets get to it.
ALWAYS BACKUP WHEN MODDING
First download the apk I will attach it to this guide
Then copy paste it to your phone via "Computer" or "My Computer" Just drop it anywhere right in there. NOT IN A FOLDER
Open up Astro or any file manager, hit manage my files or whatever to get to "/mnt/sdcard" (thats what mine says on my lt30at)
Select the Backup-Restore file and it will promt an install
Go ahead and Install it
Then, You can also utilize Androxyde Flashtool for Windows, do the installation, then check out Flashtool directory (Flashtool/drivers) and locate “Flashtool-drivers.exe”. Double-click on it, choose Xperia TX, Flashmode, and Fastboot Drivers. To check if the drivers are properly installed, look at Device Manager.
Ok, now Grab Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v Here ---> http://uploaded.net/file/0fpyh5c5
Then go to this video and follow him WORD FOR WORD.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EpkrCq1gfM
Do not skip around the video or try to skip some steps. Just trust me here.
If you have followed what I have said here to the T then you should be golden.
If I have missed something in this guide for the lt30at please let me know guys.
Hit thanks if I have helped you. :highfive:
This is all explained already in numerous posts and linked to the all in one thread, but thanks for your input

I havent seen anything lt30at specific nor have I found anything That explains this all in one post. Not saying it doesn't exist but it took me a week to root my phone cause the info was scattered all over. I just made this for a very specific group of people with the lt30at to be able to fin all the info for their phones and nothing else. Just a simple guide with nothing in it other than what they need. It can be very overwhelming and annoying to look through thread after thread scanning for the info you need. I made this so a simple search would do it. Just trying to help.
As for me posting this twice I figured I'd make a thread for it just for easier locating to those looking. Sorry to overpost

[q] htc one x hanging on 'quietly brilliant'

Hi All.
How Can I get my pictures off my poorly One X?
Really need help with my 1x. It switched itself off the other day in my pocket and now it hangs on the 'quietly brilliant' screen and wont start up. I have rooted it and it has clockworkmod recovery v5.8.2.7 on it- I didnt put a custom rom on it, just rooted it.
I am unable to mount USB storage through clockworkmod as I am getting 'unable to open ums lunfile (no such file or directory)' error. I had hoped that if i could mount the usb, i could at least access the sd through my pc to transfer pictures from my phone. I am really at a loss now. I was wondering if it could be a battery issue (i have had it on charge for sometime but on the hboot screen it says 'battery level is too low to flash'). I really dont know what to do now. if i cannot connect via usb to pc, then i have no way of trying to transfer pics and files or un-rooting or transferring and img files to try some sort of re-flash.
In CWM recovery, i have browsed for zip files and can see all the folders there so i assume all my pictures are also still present.
The pictures are the most important to me as they are holiday pics. I would, of course, just like the phone to work again but at the very least, be able to get my pics off it.
Any help much appreciated guys. Thanks, Pete.

In the One X section you will found a lot of guide and file for save your phone and re-use it!
There is a fastboot file that will charge your battery in fastboot for flash a rom or for unlock your bootloader if it is locked.
So, see the link

[Q] Tough One - Hung on Samsung Logo, no recovery mode - must keep pics!

Basically my phone is stuck on the GT-N7000 Samsung Logo screen.
Would love if somebody could make my day and tell me how I can restore my phone with it's pictures.
I know this is not as simple as it sounds but I have read a thread that explains something about non-wiping ROMs / upgrade ROMs? Is this true?
Notes:
I have a stock ROM (I bought the phone via Amazon Germany though).
Never tried to place another ROM onto phone.
I cannot go into recovery mode.
I am able to go into download mode.
I have heard of this ODIN but not familiar.
Heeelp!

Are you kidding me!? You're honestly a senior member? Calling my response idiotic is probably a little ironic. Let me explain why...
Firstly, I'm not going to waste too much of my time replying to you but my concern was that during the 501 pages of the thread something may changed from the start, I can't be sure how accurate the first posts are, which I feel is a valid point 1.
As for the bricked device, the phone became bricked itself due to no fault of my own, other people have experienced the same thing, I have avoided popping ROM's onto the phone to avoid voiding my warranty, I did not tamper with anything, this is valid point 2.
If you have nothing positive to contribute to this thread please refrain from adding any further comments, or take a chill pill and use a little empathy senior member.
I should also add that:
- I eeked at the 501 pages - I was not being condescending.
- I believe that there is a difference between ROM's that completely flash the whole memory and upgrade ROM's that will retain, hence why I asked the question, about 'upgrade' ROM's.
If you want to pull the pictures from the phone internal memory you can use a pc program called adb.exe, but you need to be in download mode.

Everything you need to know is there.
And absent hardware failure, a phone doesn't brick itself.

Thanks Ranger Captain! Much appreciated. I'll look into this!
The expert on adb.exe is a user nemed studacris. I think it would be ok to PM him and get the specifics of the command.
Roughly, connect the phone to the pc in download mode, open a command window, navigate to your adb directory, type adb device to confirm the connection, then type adb pull \directory name\all files /directory on pc and the files will transfer from the internal phone memory to your pc.

When you come across a 501 page thread and say the answer is there and current for people who are willing to read there is a bit of a problem here.
I was hoping a tech Guru on here who is familiar with my problem could help summarise key points relevant to my problem.
I am willing to concede after some of you have eluded to much of the information is in the first few pages. Thank you.
As for bricking - there has been corruption of what seems to be the firmware, which not is of the question, what point are you making? If you read a few other threads, others have experienced similar issues with attempting to update their ROM's.

Hey man. All you need to do is read the first post of dr.ketan's thread. Good luck. If flashing a stock ROM via PC Odin doesn't work, per the isnstructions on that thread, I will personally be more than glad to help. But that IS your first step.
There is nothing to summarize. Follow the procedure in that thread OP. You don't have to read ANY of the thread except the guide. If it doesn't help you get up and running, feel free to PM me or post here. But when someone tells you to read a thread you must realize they are probably referring to the Original Post. If you are told to search (xda users rule #1), then that is a different story. For example, if you said 'how do I Use an OTG cable', I would say 'search this thread for the keyword otg'. Nevertheless, that is not the case here. There is a specific guide in the OP of that thread that describes what your first step to fix your device should be. Once that has been exhausted, please feel free to ask for further guidance.
Take care and good luck.

I have seen that this is something that I need to sit down and concentrate on however I have not had a spare moment. I will have a crack at over the next few days and feedback in...most likely I will have more questions but watch this space!

I was reading. There is something not quite clear. Although the thread tells you a lot about how to do something, it doesn't say what it does or what it's for.
I've downloaded the software but further threads highlight that data may still be deleted.
Would you mind advising of how the thread can ensure that my data will not be deleted?

Which data you refer to?
Question: is your data nor backed up via Google?
As for SD card data, like photos, is that what you're talking about?

Made a huge mistake when trying to unroot my Razer Phone 2

I was up at about 3 AM this morning. I wanted to unroot my phone because I realized that I had no reason to have it rooted in the first place. I rooted with Magisk, tried the "Uninstall" button straight from the Magisk app, and now my phone just boots into Android Recovery. I've tried all day to flash a stock version of whatever this phone runs and just can't wrap my head around this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but I'm not allowed to post this in the development section due to my "low post count" or something. I'm very stressed at the moment. My phone was running the newest update from September if that is relevant.
Try this.

Thanks for this, but I've read through them and I struggle to understand what to do. It's all so overwhelming and I'm nearly completely new to this whole thing. I apologize.
EDIT: I feel dumb. Found the issue. I just had to add adb and fastboot to the Windows PATH environment variables. Thank you for your response, I wouldn't have read the guide again.
