Where can I find EPST 2.1? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since EPST 2.2 within FroYo won't allow you to change the PRL(the ##775# trick), I need to install EPST 2.1.
Where can I find that? (And how do I replace it?)
I'm fully rooted with netarchy custom ROM.
Thanks.

Here you go....

Thank you for the file.
Now do you know which folder I have to place it in?

If you're rooted, all you have to do is place it on your SD card, and open it with a file explorer (I use EStrong) and it will run the install. From my understanding, if you don't have root, you cannot install from the SD card so I don't know how you would go about it. I rooted my phone as soon as I got it so I don't even know what it's like to NOT have root.....lol.

Whoops, wrong thread, sorry, didn't mean to necro it :/

I could use a little help here. I downloaded and installed the above file to my HTC Hero running Froyo 2.2 and I am still unable to use the ##775# option. Any reason why this wouldn't work on my Hero?
And yes, I do understand that this is not a hero forum, however, It also seems that most of the Evo guys found their roots in the Hero, so help a brotha out

I just had to reinstall EPST from 2.1 following a ROM change. I did get it to work by following these steps:
1. Initial attempt to install from SD gave options to uninstall / run. I uninstalled from here.
2. in Root Explorer went to system/app and renamed the original EPST.apk to EPST.tmp in case I needed to reinstall (This is optional).
3. Copied the EPST 2.1 apk to system/app.
4. clicked EPST.apk from w/in Root Explorer and prompted to install from there.
5. Closed Root Explorer and tested ##775# again. It now works, just as it did on Myn's ROM.
Hope this helps anyone still having issues with ##775# resulting in no action.

this will work in 2.3.?

No. This won't work in 2.3. Bummer!

get root explorer copy it over the 2.2 epst.apk and then click it again and install
its because you are in a system folder. you need to be in R/O status i believe which you cant in astro.

Actual (2010-06-27) hosts file

Because AdFree is not working on Desire:
I've made hosts file which is compilation of two lists and some manual additions (for correct blocking of admob). So I decided to share with my list. Use it if You want to. Please tell me if this forum is wrong for that list.
Sorry for the n00b question but how do you install this?
Nice one mate. You've just reminded me I needed to redo my hosts file after installing Modaco Froyo, and I might as well use yours as it'll be more up to date than mine.

ditto this, instructions for us noobies?
unzip the host file
than enter recovery
adb-windows shell mount /system
adb-windows shell mv /system/etc/hosts /sdcard/backuphost
adb push c:\hosts /system/etc
that should wrok if you unziped hosts.zip to c:\ and if something goes wrong you have your original hosts file backed up in /sdcard/backuphost
hope this helps
p.s. i didn't try this
did everything, and adfree is still not working in froyo...
Thanks anyway!
Edit: Now, Adfree FCs!
Edit 2: I did it again and it worked!
Could someone please create a zip file, that can be falshed through clockworkmod recovery? This would be fantastic.

This is great, thanks for sharing - it seems to work great. I might go back to a stock hosts though - I like to block ads when browsing, but I feel bad about doing it for ad-supported applications. That's just me though

Thank you. I have been looking for this for a long time
Great work, it worked a charm until I changed to a new rom, went to use it again and it was gone from the downloads in Rom Manager.
Big thanks.
Panic over, It was saved as a download on my SD card, Rom Manager flashed it again from the saved location no problem.
Love it.
danbst said:
Your stuff is gone from Rom Manager it seems mate.
Would I be right in assuming I can put this on my card renamed as update.zip (if I need to?)
Use rom manager to boot into recovery and flash it manually?
Great work BTW, it worked a charm until I changed to a new rom, went to use it again and as I say it was gone.
Big thanks.

You don't need to rename the zip file if you're using ROM Manager, but yes you should be able to install this through the manager.
If you can't download it through the ROM Manager report, my link is always online and will be updated when possible.

Just a confused question;
If we have a rooted device, what's the reason for having to use the recovery menu? Can you not simply overwrite the file?
Thanks
Yea you can, provided you reboot into recovery and mount the system, then pull or push the device back into the system.
Either way you need to boot into recovery as there's no root method that fully allows read/write access for the Desire at the moment.

It should work like this. Unfortunatelly you can't mount system partition as read/write. That is because system is blocking this in some way.

Another quick one:
I used the zip file which people are using in the rom manager. I rebooted into clockwork and selected apply update from zip and selected the file. Appears I broke the system though lol .
Is this not the right way of doing it?
Also how do you type commands in the recovery? :S

OTA 2.2 Recovery Image Question...

If I open the ROM using WinRAR and just extract the recovery.img and the android text file (the 2 files located in the stock 2.1 file from adrynline (sp?)) and zip them up and name it PB31IMG.zip, do I know have a 2.2 stock recovery that i can use in the future if need be?
Only asking since the 2.2 OTA is being pushed out and if I ever need to send the phone back I want to be able to go back to stock.
Thanks.

careful, if its an official you will lose root. and maybe your s off.
No details? So we have no idea what this is............
What is this
I am guessing it simply is the stock ROM with the OTA update applied. Please post further information on exactly what this ROM is.

I have the same setyo build # 28, i see no use for this thread without details on the radio posted.
This is just a Stock System ROM for the MyTouch 4G post-OTA. Nothing special but now hopefully with this theres a better/easy way to return our phones to True Factory state if needed thnx FootBall for this!
My gf's phone never got the ota 2.2.1 can I use this to update her phone?
MT4G + Ice Glacier V1.1.4

So will I lose root if I flashed this? If so then this will kill a lot of time for me. I wouldn't need to unroot my device. I have a replacement coming and if I could unroot it just by flashing this then great.

Yes u will lose root and should reset back to S-ON. Just rename zip to PD15IMG.zip and boot into bootloader and it should find it and ask you to continue flashing it. Afterwards u should have a Original Stock MT4G as when u first got it.

The file in the original post will OVERWRITE EVERYTHING ON THE DEVICE and wipe it 100% clean.
If you merely want to apply the update to the phone but leave all of her personal data intact, use the file I've linked below, name it UPDATE.ZIP and apply it by following directions below.
http://www.filedropper.com/update1pd15img
THIS PROCEDURE ASSUMES SHE IS ON STOCK ROM AND NOT ROOTED
copy the file to the root of your sdcard. make sure it is named update.zip and not update.zip.zip. If you don't know what this means, let me know.
power off phone.
hold vol down + power until you get to a white screen.
use the volume buttons to select RECOVERY then click power.
EDIT:
tk192 said:
When u get to the ! with the triangle press volume up i believe to show u the options after use the volume keys to navigate to the update.zip and let the phone update and reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
when phone reboots you should be in a blue menu. Android oem recovery 2e or something like that.
select apply update.zip and stand back and let the phone do it's thing. DON'T TOUCH IT WHILE IT'S WORKING!!
When it reboots she should be on 2.2.1.
So basically this is just the PD15IMG we already have? Or will this replace bootloader, recovery and all thus eliminating the need to reverse gfree kinda like sappimg.nbh for the mytouch 3g?

I *THINK* gfree is a separate issue, but not sure. You'd have to ask the creator of that thread. The PD15IMG we already had was pre-ota 2.2, meaning we had to apply a second update.zip to get back to post-ota 2.2.1.
I think this new PD15IMG in the OP of this thread is post-ota so we can completely unroot in one step. I'm very stoked.

Me also eliminates many steps. Should be awesome also if it also reversed gfree.
Has anyone that followed the gfree process tried this to see if it will also reverse this.

[Q] [REQ]Flashable zip for Droid Dance boot animation?

The current zip is in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708173 under "DanceDroid"
The preview: http://lh3.ggpht.com/_ujP4wvYd1-o/TGHmw3DiRaI/AAAAAAAADQM/Lu4aJx8Gtgc/s800/DanceDroid_800x480.gif
I've tried flashing the .zips from the thread, but I just can't get it to work. Would someone mind making it flashable and maybe PM me with a download link?
Much appreciated
Hell I have this on a flashable zip on cp at home if your still waiting on someone to send it to you I will after work.

Put it on the sd card. Then just flash it in recovery

I do it this way everytime. Way faster than flashing, or pushing via adb.
OK Glad I found this thread.. I too want the dancing droid and cant not get it to work.. I am using sense ROM and I have tried the moving it to the sytem/media.. doesnt work.. I have tried pushing it via "pushboot" still doesnt work.. I get a black screen..
So when you say flash it via recovery.. Just a manual flash..
1)boot into recovery
2)flash system via zip
3) choose bootanimation
4) reboot
Is that all??
I also created sound for this as well. the sound works great on other animations but nothing shows up.. Is there anything in the file I need to change.. There is also a "DS STORE" file which i havent seen in other animations..
What is that file for?
Can someone post a screenshot of this flash working???
Im not sure what else to try.. been working on this for hours.. still nothing
OK just tried to flah in recovery and message received was "Cant find update script" so this could be why its not working... What script is needed?? Is it the notepad of code that goes into each zip bootanimation? that is not in the zip btw when downloaded from the thread that has this download... so if its working on other Evos how did you do it.. and what script is present??
does anyone still have the dancing droid for evo 4g. i would like to use it as my boot animation but the link in this thread is broken and i cant find one that will work anywhere

hi guys i extracted the rom from the 2,3 update. and put it thru dsixdas kitchen, added root permissions but when i load rom super user is not there and theres no root.
any ideas what im doing wrong?
Was it option F (Chains DD)? Is superuser.apk in /system/app?
yeah it was option f mate. ill have to check where its kept later, spose i can move it before i build the rom anyway?
It needs to be in system/app which is where dsixda should put it. Check your rom.zip to ensure its there before flashing.
ok mate will do cheers
dont you need su also somewhere?
or isnt there pre-rooted rom on the dev section - i think theres one or two of them which are stock + root
yeah im using teppics but i got it in my head that i want to root my own stock one. i think its just to see if i can!!
my thinking was that if the kitchen inserted root permissions i thought that was it done.

Are you doing a wipe before flashing your ROM?
yeah usually a full wipe, im gunna try it again later must be something im doing cus im sure it never used to
