Looking for someone to help with unbricking a DX. I've been flashing and flashing .sbf files all day and haven't been able to get it to take. I've gotten various errors and I'm hoping someone can help me. I've done research but haven't found the answers I'm looking for.
And I refuse to believe that this thing is bricked beyond repair. Can someone point me in a direction, help me, or would be willing to chat on MSN (or whichever, I can install it on my comp)??
I realize that there are literally thousands of threads regarding a bricked X, but I'm about at my breaking point if I have to search through another thread looking for an answer. I asked around, and this seems to be the place to go for help. I'm hoping I was sent in the right direction.

hi, i just got my HTC 8925 tilt. i am not hesitating to get into the modding scene. i need to how to use.. Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2_1_65.14.06_CubeV2_
with my tilt. i read some of the other post but can't seem to understand about all the flashing and stuff. i really don't wanna brick my phone, if you know what i mean. im apart of the PSP modding scene but it is nothing compared to this.
so can someone please help me out here. it would be very much appreciated.
right now i have...
Rom version - 1.62.502.0
radio version - 1.27.14.09
Thank you very much, do you need any other info?
Read the posts and use the search feature.
Really, it's not hard.
I had no idea how to flash my Kaiser with another ROM until I read up on it and yeah, it was somewhat confusing at first but after reading and re-reading things, I was able to work out what I needed to do and with what order.
Not wanting to come across as harsh but nobody is going to hold your hand through this when all the information is on this site many, many times over.
I want to do a full root of my EVO and really don't want to screw it up. I am very computer literate but have never rooted a phone before and am new to all things in that regard . Basically I want to be able to remove all the Sprint bloatware, be able to load various roms and a few other things but most importantly, I want to be able to revert my phone back to complete pre-root stock if the need should arise.
So what I am asking is for one of the more experienced devs here to spend a little time with me on the phone and walk me through everything step by step, and answer any questions I might have and give me any pointers that I might not be aware of. I understand that everyone is very busy working their magic that I have seen just from lurking here for a while, and I am more than willing to compensate you for your time through paypal. I'm hoping to do this sometime within a week or so.
If anyone is willing to help I would greatly appreciate it.
Not to Burst your bubble or anything, but there are TONS of guides that will help you. Most of them are step-by-step.
Here's a good source for the guides-
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC Evo Guides And Tutorials
If you plan to tackle rooting, I would suggest that you do it the right way the first time. Unrevoked is more of a joke if you ask me. All it does is create problems because the people who "Root" that way know nothing about how the phone works.
Learn ADB. The hardest part of adb is installing the files. Everything else is simply copying and pasting what the devs tell you too.
I don't have the time to walk you through it, and probably wouldn't be able to answer all your questions.
Good luck in finding someone to help you, if you attempt to do it by yourself, just post back where you get stuck and there are plenty of great people that will help you along the way.
Thanks, and welcome to the community!

the 2.2 root is looking way to hard for me....i got up to step 5 and after that it wasnt working.
is there anyone that can help me get it rooted with cm6...or guide me thru it? you can use my computer or use yours to root my phone....im in sunrise fl.
i have some knolege..ive hacked my palm pre and iphones before but android is alot harder...
thanks to anyone that can help me!
if no one can help you, i wouldn't give up hope- i'm guessing someone will put a lot of those steps together to get closer to a 1 (or maybe 3) click solution.
this is a very early root solution- it will be improved upon over time.

i hope so ...as of right now theres too many steps and i could easily mess up on one of them... i hope there is a actual 2.2 root...not a downgrade to 2.1 then root

Maybe they will update simple root soon, it is a fairly simple and painless process, but I definitely wouldn't give up, just relax, take a breather, remove any files it may have on your phone/sd from previous attempts and try again.
I would offer you help, but I'm already rooted and haven't really looked to far into the process, but I'm sure your not the only one having difficulties if you search around the pertaining threads.

Alex,
I can appreciate your excitement, but its probably not a good idea to let someone do this for you. Just imagine what might happen if something goes wrong. You wouldn't have the background to be able to fix it yourself, and you could end up with a 700 dollar paperweight that Sprint tech support would laugh in your face if you tried to warranty it.
Just give it time and be patient. Read, re-read, and triple read every post in the root thread to see where others are getting hung up and take notes! In the end, you'll feel much better about gaining the knowledge yourself!
ROMs are meant as tools for the learned, not for the inexperienced. This is why they aren't supported by Sprint and HTC under warranty. You can easily damage your phone or at least render it temporarily useless if you don't know what you are doing.
As was said before me, these things will get easier in time. Just take the extra time to learn about how all this stuff works. Don't hesistate to ask questions about your journey learning to fish!
Good luck!
+1 Yeppers, nothing like a good old sense of accomplishment...

Just did it myself. Make sure to completely follow all the instructions as stated and it's actually pretty easy.
Hello my mom owns a Sprint Galaxy Nexus. She has been using the phone on Page Plus for the past couple of months. I set it up for her using this guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1696621.
I have recently acquired a Samsung Fascinate from my cousin. I wish to use this as a donor phone since the Sprint model only gets 2g without the 3g keys. I have searched for guides on how to extract the keys and use them on the Nexus but they are not written specifically for the Galaxy Nexus which uses dfs. All of the other guides are tutorials for different software. This has been bothering her for the past couple of months because 2g is painfully slow. I would really appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction or helping me in any way. Thank you so much for taking the time to view my thread.
Anyone out there??
Really? No one knows how to help me or even point me in the right direction? I realize that I may have posted in the wrong forum and someone is welcome to move it if it gets me help. I want to activate her phone but she isn't willing to accept 1x.
Really??!! THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP
Wow, I should say kudos to me for my thread getting 154 views and NO replies.:victory: There are hundreds of people on this forum that flashed their phones to page plus, some even used donors, but the one thing they all have in common is their initiative to help others.:laugh: Thank you all for the invisible, magical insight!:good: Hopefully I can learn from the MOUNDS of responses I have to sort through.:fingers-crossed:
I know its kind of extreme to make an entire thread dedicated to this, but Im at my wits end. I've been searching high and low for god knows how long looking for a download link for the Ace IIx/ Trend port of Slimrom and I can't find it anywhere. The closest I've come is a few posts by a brake that seem like at me point and time they contained a download link. Could someone please point me in the right direction or barring that give me cause to give up? I'm sincerely hoping for success in finding it, thanks for your time and hopefully help.
