Rom DESIRE HD?

Hi
I am trying to install '4EXTRecovery v2.1.3' however it wont work.
Do I need to root my phone before doing this.
The major problem I am facing is that everytime try to run a cmd file it
says
'error: device not found'
I have tried using visionary that doesnt work either, it doesnt temporary root so I cant to the perm root afterwards.
I have android 2.3.
Software no: 2.37.61.11
Visionary+
rooting phone please wait> then comes a black screen and if you click back on visionary it doesnt open, so I cant perm root after temproot
I am not trying to install any rom right now, what I do want to do is format the whole phone so it has nothing on it, except the '4EXTRecovery v2.1.3 loader so I can install my own rom later on.

this tool obviously seems to need s-off as well as root rights, so you'd need to downgrade.
but the device not found issue may be caused by missing adb drivers, so install HTC sync and try again, and don't forget to choose "Charge only" and enable USB-Debugging!

Alskarl is right.
You need to downgrade using a goldcard before you can use visionary.
Once you have downgraded you can use it.
once you have root you must eng-off/s-off to install a rom.
Also the other problem is due to missing drivers as alskarl said. =)

its because the adb drivers are not installed properly. i had this problem but never solved it and gave up. i re-installed numerous times with no luck, i tried everything and even installed drivers maually. still doesnt work now. my advice is try another pc. if you cant do that then start a new thread. sorry i cant help any more.

I had this same problem recently when attempting to root my wife's phone. After I rebooted my PC and deleted the USB devices from Device Manager it seemed to find it on the next hardware search and it configured it as a Android 1.0 device. Don't know how much help this will be but just thought I'd throw my personal experience out there.

adb server is out of date: killing
Could you please tell me what that means and how I can fix it.
Can you please tell me If I have been successful in installing 4extrecovery.
if i have then how do I access it on my phone.
Thanks

that "out of date" message is normal, I get that as well and android is just working fine for me

Power down. Hold the volume button down and press power. Keep holding the volume button until you enter hboot then select recovery. If it was flashed properly it should load into the recovery console.

[GUIDE] Using ODIN to flash your Epic 4G Touch (windows only)

PREREQUISITES:
ODIN v1.85 (included at the bottom) [WINDOWS ONLY]
Samsung KIES (for the drivers needed)
Samsung Epic 4G Touch (I know - should be obvious.....) and USB cable
Your brain and eyes to read this ENTIRE thing BEFORE you do anything
INITIAL SETUP:
Install Samsung KIES
Connect your Epic 4G Touch to a Windows computer. (Sorry ODIN uses Windows only...)
Wait for Windows to initialize your phone with the drivers
Unzip the Odin3 v1.85.zip file to it's own directory
Disconnect Epic 4G Touch from your computer
ODIN STARTUP
Open up odin3 v1.85.exe and you'll see this screen
Turn your E4GT off (again should be obvious) and unplug if plugged in
Put your E4GT into download mode by holding down Volume-Down first and then hold down the Power button until you see this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Press Volume-Up to continue or Volume-Dn to restart
Volume-Up gets you this screen:
You're now in Download Mode and ready to continue.
ODIN OPTIONS:
Here is the ODIN screen:
Connect your E4GT to your computer.
The top left box should light up like this:
If it doesn't, close out of ODIN, unplug your phone, take the battery out, put it back in, restart computer, and repeat the ODIN STARTUP steps above.
PIT Button: This is for the partition structure when flashing an entire ROM
BOOTLOADER Button: This is for uploading a new bootloader (we don't have, and have never used this - IGNORE!)
PDA Button: This is for flashing kernels and ROMs (in .tar format)
PHONE Button: This is for the phone's RADIO/MODEM ONLY!!!!!!
CSC Button: Not sure - don't use.
DO NOT USE PHONE FOR ANYTHING BUT A RADIO/MODEM - YOU WILL DEFINITELY NOT BE ABLE TO USE YOUR PHONE FOR CALLS, AND YOU MAY POSSIBLY BRICK IT - YOU'VE BEEN WARNED
This concludes the basics on what ODIN is and how to use it. For the items to flash you'll find them on this site.
DISCLAIMER: YOU, AND YOU ALONE, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS IN USING ANYTHING ON THIS SITE. DO NOT COME CRYING IF YOU MESS UP YOUR DEVICE.

Stock Modem EG12.bin - flash this using PHONE in ODIN

Awesome! I could have used this when I started on my GTab 10.1.
This will help a lot of folks. I'm very impressed by you and the other devs in this community thus far. You guys rock hard and I hope everyone realizes it.

For Linux/MacOS users - Heimdall is an open source cross-platform replacement for Odin - http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
However it can't automatically flash Odin tar files - you need to manually extract the tar and flash each individual component.

Yep - was going to (sometime) put together a guide on Heimdall as well - but there are some out there

ok, I have tried the above directions. Kies installed. Odin installed. phone in d/l mode. Odin found phone. chose the tar file and started. It keeps getting stuck at zimage or setup connection.
I have uninstalled Kies thinking that maybe it was locking up the port and restarted. Still have the same "stall" condition. Any ideas? I really want to root and am stuck!
edit: I was using a usb cable through a usb hub. I switched to the cable that came with it directly to my pc and it worked fine. Guess Odin is picky.

I am sorry to have given you an excuse to actually be productive with a device. I suggest you place it in a jell-o mold and freeze it as the one device you didn't brick - but then you'd have bricked it - thus fulfilling your original desire to brick. Now go pass one through your intestines.

Stock Modem EG12.bin - flash this using PHONE in ODIN

LOL...I'm SOOO thrilled you used my post as the "Noteworthy Post" example. A grand tip to the rest of the community, DO NOT attempt flashing/modding/rooting/hacking (as an amateur) when you are semi-drunk and half asleep. And THANK YOU to the OP for supplying the stock Modem, although, the scare of almost bricking my phone sobered me up enough to use the search function on the forum.
End of story!

anyone got a link to all the stock files for odin??

i cant get to odin.....instead it gives me android system recoverry. #manual mode# looks almost like clockwork mod but cant install using clk roms...

[Q] Broken USB?

My usb port only charges. No other stuff works. My usb jig won't work, odin won't recognize it and it won't connect to a computer. Nothing happened to the device physically, any ideas?

I have the exact same problem with my Galaxy Tab 10.1, charges but PC won't recognize it.

The jig still boots into Odin mode, it just doesn't reset the counter with a new bootloader. Mine doesn't do anything. As for the settings I have adb and mass storage enabled, and my pc won't even recognize the hardware in device manager. Sadly I think it is toast. Hopefully sprint is good to me.

[Q] Help with ROOT and SGS3 Toolkit 7.0

Hey guys, longtime lurker, new poster. Lots of help from reading this board. I bought my SGS3 in August last year, and rooted it with the "no trip the counter" style root. I forget which one it was exactly. I didn't install Clockwork Mod or TWRP.
Fast forward to today, and I am trying to play around with my phone. So, I decide to look in the "About device/ status/ device status/" and it is listed as modified. This means it will not update to Jelly Bean. OH NOES! So thats why it didn't OTA update!
So, I download SGS3 toolbox and proceed to putter.
I decide that I will unroot the phone first and see what that does for me.
So, I go into SGS3 toolkit using the following options:
do not update, I pick my model (41. Android 4.04 [Build IMM76D ALG1]) and it goes to the main menu.
I pick option 2. Root/unroot device and read all the options. I pick Number 7 (unroot, etc.). This is where it goes sideways (I think). I read the prompt, and decide to tell it I do not have a custom recovery flashed.
I pick option 2 TWRP and it goes into download mode. ODIN opens. I pick the correct file (I read everything, as usual) and flash my phone. So far so Good.
SGS3toolkit asks me to pick a flash choice. I pick 2 (sideload root file). I press the any key
**************
I just noticed I have a driver issue. Will reboot pc and continue this in a few minutes. If you are reading this, check back soon. I'll keep you posted. GRRRR...
***************
OK, this is a tricky one. The drivers install fine, and the phone gets recognized. SGS3 Toolkit 7 recognizes the phone and it has the serial number. However, when in TWRP, it is supposed to install another driver of some sort, but on my PC, I look in "Devices and Printers" and look around, it lists my SGS3 as this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
Any suggestions? Uninstalling and reinstalling the Samsung USB drivers, running Ccleaner, and rebooting and reinstalling hasn't helped. What next, scrub the registry?
Thanks!

When you uninstalled the drivers, did you: uninstall, reboot pc, disconnect from Internet, connect s3 and install?
I believe you were rooted initially? I would have simply made a nandroid, wiped and flashed the latest stock firmware via odin

I did all of the above except disconnect from the internet. Just to be clear, the phone is still completely functional (i guess I didn't explicitly state that). Why would a live internet connection impact this?
Also, what driver is messing up in my photo? Is it a special driver of some sort?

Search for samsung drivers on this forum and download them. When you install a new device, it looks online for the drivers. You don't want those.
I figured the phone was working, I just would have used odin to flash the latest firmware, wiped and been done. Would have saved doing all those steps

http://blog.dantup.com/2012/10/fixing-adb-device-not-found-with-nexus-7-in-recovery-mode
In order to save you the hassle, because I changed a couple other tiny things, here are the files.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B22uHLqOAaf9Yk8xaERzZklITjA/edit?usp=sharing
You will need to reboot your computer into PC Settings, General, Advanced Startup and choose Install drivers in unprotected mode (because this is a hacked driver). Than go to where you put this file (usually in C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG\USB Drivers\25_escape), right click it and select install. I have confirmed that this works on my SGH-I747 ATT phone.
I am by no means a programmer, but am alright with Windows stuff. This is my fix for this problem. Enjoy!

A lot of work just to get stock version of JB. ODIN and MrRobinson method would have worked and had you running in under half an hour...that includes downloading files if you have a decently fast internet connection.
With mobile ODIN no drivers required.

Perhaps, but this works, and having working drivers for th SGS3 on Win8 is a bit of an issue some have had, so I fixed it. With Google, they will hopefully find this thread and the file and have to do much less than me.

[Q] I think I am in trouble now

For starters, my Note 2 (AT&T) won't charge.
I have tried different outlets, and different chargers, but to no avail. All I get is the image below (I might add that all of those chargers work fine on my Nexus 10). After reading up on XDA, here, I get this:
{QUOTE}Movin On the SGS3/Note2/etc, System->Settings->About device->Status still shows "Modified"
This is outside the scope of Triangle Away. The "system" status is not even always resettable in the bootloader. If you are going for warranty, you need to also reflash a full stock firmware and wipe your device. If they boot up your device and find root apps, you're not going to get any warranty anyway. If you do such a full stock reflash and wipe, the "Modified" value will go away. See the post below this one for more information.{/QUOTE}
Now here is my problem. I want to reset my phone to use the warranty on it to replace the USB port (also, how does my phone have a bad usb port if I can get that to show up when plugged in, but no charge?). So I have to unroot and unmodify my system. How the heck am I supposed to reflash a full stock firmware on my Note 2 without being able to use my usb port?
I might also add that this was done with a 2.1 amp wall charger designed for such a phone.......its not like I am trying to charge it off a usb port in a computer or laptop
At this point, I just want it fixed hopefully by warranty regardless of what is wrong with it.
I wonder if there is a way to import the necessary files onto the sd card and flash that way??

Yeah that is kinda strange there. That's crazy it pops up like it's charging but not working !
But if your having problems with the usb port, then you can try this then:

If you needed to flash back to stock without a computer...

Borrow a friend's battery or get a battery charger for the note two and recharge your battery. Then take the sd card out and put it into a reader and load it with the files. Then reinsert it into the phone to flash the stock recovery and then preform all the steps. Then go in for your warranty.

I think it could be the battery is bad.

Borrow a friend's battery or get a battery charger for the note two and recharge your battery. Then take the sd card out and put it into a reader and load it with the files. Then reinsert it into the phone to flash the stock recovery and then preform all the steps. Then go in for your warranty.

I am so glad I can take this route. You guys are awesome!!!
I just ordered a card last night online, I will attempt to make this happens. Hopefully I will have good news to post in a few days

I downloaded the stock firmware, loaded it onto my ext sdcard, used mobile odin, and then nothing. I am stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note Screen.
Did I forget to mention that in all of the excitement, I forgot to do a backup ROM?
I know the process didn't take because it still says I am custom on the OS download screen, and I can boot into CWM still.
Please tell me there is some hope!

this may just be meeee, but before when i borked my LG optimus G i had the bootloader unlocked, and rooted ON THE NEXUS 4 conversion, and one day it just would not boot up. so i just called att and told them it stopped working. they shipped me a new one (even though i was passed my 14 days because all att devices have a 1 year warranty as long as your a cutsomer) i knew in the back of my head that i had molested the phone but after i got the replacement back i sent my borked one, and never heard a word about it.

I considered that. But I would have to count on the person being a complete amateur to not try and pull up download mode to check for alterations. I would imagine they would be smart enough to look there first.
I managed to load jedi rom on the phone and I am using now. But I fear I will brick it again trying to go stock

Just make sure you make a nandroid back up. That way if anything happens, you can just go right back to where you are now. And if you follow directions and read everything there saying about returning to stock. Your chances on bricking are slim!

My Note 2 had the same exact issue, and I found it to be an issue with the tip of the USB cord. Sometimes it won't go in deep enough. Try finding a slightly different one or sanding the plastic edges on the tip of the cord.
