[Q] Installing Gingerbread - issues

All,
Following this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqvnLs6FOis I tried to install gingerbread on my Desire. Here are the steps I've taken.
- copied gingerbread rom onto root of sd card (renamed gingerbread.zip)
- rooted my Desire using visionary+
- installed rom manager and flashed with clockworkmod recovery
- rebooted into Recovery (comes up as Android Recovery System <3e>)
- select "apply sdcard:update.zip" - when I do this I get "failed to verify whole-file signature"
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

The apply update.zip is for a special name update. Try the one below it that says aplly update from sd card or something like that ( the other one that looks similar). You will go to another screen and choose gingerbread.zip

First of all as you apparently haven't idea what you are doing to your phone.. dont!
If you want to continue the reason you get this error is, that your phone is not rooted at all. Visionary is for desire hd and desire z. On desire you must use unrevoked from your computer. This will install clockwork mod recovery, so you can run custom roms.

Pretty much, the process is:
1.) Download and run UnrEVOked 3 (check out the desire index in my sig for the link). This will root and install a custom recovery.
2.) Copy the gingerbread ZIP to your SD Card somewhere, i advise against renaming it to update.zip for multiple reasons (so as to avoid confusion mainly).
3.) Select "Choose ZIP file from SDCard to flash" (it is similarly to this, i cannot remember exactly the name off the top of my head).
Do not choose to "Apply update.zip", this is a different function.
Don't listen to people who tell you not to fiddle with your gear, this is the only way to learn - by experimenting. And fortunately for those of us who are willing to experiment, we have access to a large pool of experience and knowledge here at XDA.
If you have any other questions, I recommend checking out 42Turkey's Ultimate guide to root (the link is in the desire index as well).

unrevoked solved the issue (eventually after installing HTC sync).

ROM manager get not started

Hi,
I have in my hand a DHD from virgin telecom.
Now, in belgium we have three providers: Base, Mobistar, Proximus, Mobistar and Proximus I can register on there network but I can not register to base network!
that means I need to unlock. First and foremost I have to root release by s-off, then engs-off I did that
my CID is now 11 ......,
that means that my DHD is unlocked but I still get no network.
I already did downgrade from 1.75 to 1.32 with goldcard,
En then i have change the buildversion to 26.04.03.17_m2
Actualy, i do everything correct but why cant i register to base network? It is very strange. Must i try another rom version
Forexample revulution hd or something? But i see not a piont!
Or must i pay for a unlock code? En how works that system can they really unlocked from the air? If they so, than must them hacking the system in dublin eho they check the imei numbers..
Have somebody any suggestion to my problem, otherwise i gona sell them ((
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

try installing some other rom and try putting in a different sim card than what you currently have.

ok, i'm know trying to install the revulution hd 2.1 rom now.
1/ according to the guide i must download the full wipe and then the 1.3 upgrade Wipe 1.3 for the safety of the device
2/ I need put these two files (.zip file) in the sd card with the rom file.
3/ then should I be sure if I'm released by the root in the Terminal Emulator Android
typing SU, As a result I've gotten #.
so far I have everything correct according to the guide.
4/The next step should be in the rom manager, I need the flash clockworkmod
and then rebooting which means boot in the clockworkmod.
but when I reboot I got that stupid htc logo. I tried that part again the same old sh*t again and again i'im every time stuck in that logo!! what am I doing wrong?
thx

Are you sure the problem isn't the SIM card and not the handset?
In the UK I use Orange and no matter what I do to the phone it won't let me use Vodafone. That's because its an Orange SIM card.
As for your current problem.
Take out the battery and boot the phone normally.
Within ROM Manager you need to flash Clockwork Mod Recovery 2.x.x.x not 3.x.x.x you may need to do this twice as some users experience problems with flashing it once. Ensure you accept any Superuser requests.
Now, with the ROM & Full Wipe .zips on your SD Card boot into Recovery, either from ROM Manager or by turning off and starting holding volume down. Select Recovery using the volume keys and press power to enter. Make sure HTC FastBoot is unchecked first (Settings > Applications > FastBoot)
Now once in Recovery highlight "install zip from sdcard", press power, highlight "choose zip from sdcard", press power, highlight "Full Wipe 1.3.zip", press power, highlight "Yes - Install Full Wipe 1.3.zip", press power.
Now repeat this process for the ROM you downloaded and wish to install. Once complete highlight "reboot system now". Done.
Sorry if this teaching you to suck eggs, that's not my intention.

@nuri1: sorry but you're doing all wrong (I'm newby also so I can write such a sympatic comment)
For your network problem:
If you mean that you tried SIM from each provider... it could be the phone.
If with one SIM card you can't connect to another provider... it's a SIM card problem (or agreement between providers)
For your flash problem:
you mixed too many things. Take one step by step guide and follow it carefully.
You can see your phone as 3 layers:
Boot
Recovery
Build
To go in boot:
1/ power the phone and hold vol-
2/ adb reboot bootloader
To go to recovery
1/ on some build, long press "power" choose "reboot" then tic "recovery"
2/ use ROM Manager and choose the option to reboot in recovery
3/ adb reboot recovery
All the rooting of the phone (S-OFF, ENG-OFF...) will allow to install the "recovery" on your phone. It's te first steps to do.
When you're done, in recovery just flash your build (it has to be a zip on your SD). The "Full Wipe 1.3" is just an empty build used to clear the NAND (at least one part). You don't have to use 2 different ones.
So when you talked about 2 zip... for me it's wrong.
I have my DHD since last week and there are good and easy guides in the dev section.
If CWM is installed follow the clear explanantions of "andyharney"
Tip: first launch of ROM Manager will freeze your phone (at least each time for me). It's due to the SU permission. Easy to solve, launch "solve permissions issues" (sorry translated from french), accept the SU warning then back (no need to go through the full process).
Then you can choose to reboot "recovery", no hang anymore.

hi,
you said in the rom manager you must click clockworkmod 2.0.xxx en no 3.0 xxx
but i can only see 3.0.0.6 en no the other?
wtf!!!
thx

i got it
thanks anyway
lets rock!!

[Q] A Desire in strange condition

So, I've tried using a mod cooked by a online kitchen (cookmyrom se) and now I have a Desire in a very strange condition -
1. It has cyanogen mode, but without the Market application.
2. It has a terminal emulator.
3. It has clockworkmod, but I can't make it download the recovery thingy that actually makes it useful (even though I have both wifi and 3g, checked using the browser).
4. ADB on windows doesn't recognize the device. I updated it (last time I rooted the device was a lot of time to go).
5. The device is rooted (I managed to run terminal commands as root - su, etc).
6. Any time I try to put a Mod as update.zip it gives me an error about the signing (I tried official mods too :S).
7. Current version: 2.2
Baseband version: 32.42.00.32U_5.09.00.08
Kernel version: 2.6.34.5-cyanogenmodandroid giulio-laptop#7
HBOOT: 0.80.0000
Radio: 5.09.00.08
So , now all I want is to get some kind of control back - at the least the ability to dump a new mod. Any Desire expert can piece up the puzzle I created and help me?

1 Flash gapps
2 It should have
3 Your confusing rom manager and CWM. If you are rooted CWM should be on the phone when you manually boot in to recovery.
4 Either driver issues or adb isn't enabled on the phone.
5 Great
6 Turn of signature verification (in recovery go to install zip from sd, there is the option)
If you want to flash new rom:
Put a rom on the sd
Boot in to recovery (without rom manager)
Wipe data/factory reset and cache
Install zip from sd
Reboot recovery

First of all, thanks for helping. Unfortunately, I understood maybe half of what you wrote
1. I googled it and it seems that I still need a facility to flash stuff, which I don't have since I can't install CWM recovery.
2. I am. I have rom manager installed, but I can't flash Clockworkmod using rom manager. It says "Error while downloading from server. Please make sure that you have a stable internet connection (I have) and that your sd card is inserted and has enough space (inserted and has >1GB of free space)"
I don't understand what do you mean by
"If you are rooted CWM should be on the phone when you manually boot in to recovery."
I think I am rooted. As I said, I have root privileges and as I said, when I boot into recovery I only have 4 options (reboot, apply sdcard:update.zip, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition).
4. I have both drivers and newest adb. I have all development options, including debugging on the phone (this is what you meant right?) enabled. I can try reinstalling everything.
6. Again - I don't have this option.

Bump. Still no solution, and I tried every unlocker method out there. Please help.

[Q] cyanogenmod 7.1 GPS problem

Hi,
I know this is a known problem and on the cyanogenmod nightlies thread it recommends flashing the radio with 13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10, i checked my phone and i already have this version. The GPS icon does not show in status bar and does not work at all. My internet, bluetooth etc all seems to work fine apart from the GPS.
I got cyanogenmod 7.1.
Will re-flashing it with same version fix the GPS problem if not which one should i use?
Also i have ROM Manager installed and it says about flashing the radio with ROM Manager, can someone tell me how i do this exactly please?
Is it -
- Copy that radio zip file to root on sd card
- Open ROM Manager and then select whatever option it is that i need to flash it
Also should i do a backup via rom manager and titanium backup before flashing ?
Thanks

You have to reflash it, irrespective of the version you got.
- Place Zip file on SDCard
- Open ROM Manager
- Select "Flash Clockworkmod Recovery"
- Once that is done, select "Reboot into Clockworkmod Recovery"
- This will take you to Clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 (Green Text)
- Follow the same procedure to flash a ROM (Install Zip from SDCard > Select Radio.zip).
Backup is not necessary (But feel free to take one if you feel like it) since it wont affect your data. But, make sure you have sufficient battery charge and don't interrupt the process at all, because doing so may brick your phone.
Lastly, kindly don't use the Development Sections for help questions. Use Q and A.

Thanks for the info i will try what you have said. Also sorry for posting in the wrong section, i will remember for next time.
Thanks

[q]Stock rom

Can some one suggest me where download and how installa the stock rom for wildfire.
Now I use a cynogen 7 and i want go back to original froyo + sense

There are 3 primary ways to do that:
1) If you had taken a Nandroid Backup before installing CM7, Just restore that. (But I am assuming you didn't, hence you are asking this)
2) If you want to retain root and Clockworkmod Recovery, just flash this ROM. Its Stock Froyo + Sense:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977
The process to install that is as follows:
- Download this attachment and place on your SDCard:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=662193&d=1311319218
- Flash in Clockworkmod 3.x or higher. This will give you temporary Clockworkmod 2.5 (Green Text)
- Then, perform a Data Wipe, and install the ROM Zip file as normal.
3) If you dont want to retain root and Clockworkmod
- Download the Froyo RUU from Shipped ROMs (Froyo WWE 2.22.405.1 EXE) from Shipped ROMs:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz
- Connect Wildfire to the PC, and simply run it.

Hi, I'm back
Just 2 questions
I downloaded both files
i copied both files on sd then i started rom manager and tapped on first field to
Flask clockwork mod recovery
Then? what i have to do to revert to Clockworkmod 2.5?
i downloaded this file from the link Safe_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Rooted
is it true?

I can't understand what you mean by your first question at all. Clockworkmod Recovery flashed via ROM Manager is temporary. Your original Clockworkmod will remain untouched. So if you are using the option called Flash Clockworkmod Recovery in ROM Manager, then the next step is to select Reboot into Recovery from the ROM Manager App again, then flash the ROM File. In this case, you can discard the update1.zip file, as it has no significance.
As for your second question, mirrors of the EXE RUU can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680

My first question is simple
on my phone i have rom manager and there is a row named "Flask clockwork mod recovery"
but
i don't know how go back from cynogen to stock rom using clockwork mod recovery
can you help me step by step?
and the stock [with no root] rom for wildfire with froyo is this one?
RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.2 4H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe (This RUU contains HBoot 1.01.0001)
i need only to connect the phone to pc and run the exe?

First, decide what you want to do - Flash the EXE RUU, or Flash the Safe Flash ZIP File. If you decide to flash the Safe ZIP file, you will keep Clockworkmod Recovery, which will allow you to flash stuff later. If you select the EXE RUU, Clockworkmod Recovery will be removed, so you will NOT be able to flash anything, like ROMs, Kernels etc.
Once you have decided, here are the steps:
1) If you decide to install the Safe Flash ZIP File
- Download the Safe Flash ZIP from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977
Rooted / Unrooted, Its upto you which version you want. Rooted version has Superuser, so you can run apps like Titanium Backup etc. Unrooted doesnt have Superuser, so you cant run root apps.
- Place this file on your SDCard
- Now, open ROM Manager
- Select Flash Clockworkmod Recovery. Then make sure you select 2.5.0.7. NOT a version beginning with 3.x, 4.x or 5.x
- Once it is installed, in ROM Manager, the next option will be 'reboot into recovery'. Select that
- Once you select that, then you will be taken to Clockworkmod 2.5.0.7 (Which has all its options in Green coloured Text). Here, select "Wipe Data / Factory Reset". This step will erase all data on your phone (Not on your SDcard, Just your phone data. This step is essential when changing ROMs)
- Lastly, select "Install Zip from SDCard", and then, select the ZIP file you placed on your card at the beginning of this step. Let it install. Once installed, Select "Reboot System Now", and let the phone reboot. Done
2) If you decide to run the EXE RUU
- Its pretty much 1 step. Connect the phone to your PC and run the EXE File. It will automatically perform the install. If you get an Error 131 - Customer ID Error, you will need to create a Goldcard. There's a guide for that here:

It will give you temporary 2.5.0.7, then you can flash the ROM. (It is temporary, so, everytime you want CWM 2.5.0.7, you will have to flash this Zip file)
