[Q] clockwork problems

I've just got my first Android phone (an HTC Desire from Telstra - quite a good phone from all reports but hobbled almost to the point of unusability by Telstra). My Android guru (also a member of this forum) has had little success rooting it so it can be made more useful because, although most of the process works, it seems that Clockwork is not going in successfully and doesn't seem to be able to recognise the SD card (8GB, partitoned at 7GB (FAT32) and 1 GB (EXT3)). It claims that it can't find several of the files it needs to work.
The upshot is that, although the screen comes up with the options of things to do (restore etc.), when selected it just hangs with a black screen.
I checked some other similar threads but couldn't come up with anything.
Please pardon any inanity - I'm very new to this.
Any help most gratefully accepted. Thanks

when selected it just hangs with a black screen.

When selecting the option use the centre trackpad to select not the power button...
However i'm also new to a Desire (i have a desire hd) and have exactly the same on the Desire i rooted with Unrevoked last night, for example if i try to wipe system or data it just comes up with an error message...
Any ideas thanks...

Just tried to run unrevoked again to see if recovery would install properly this time.
Yesterday it said it was a triumph this time it says failed to get root is the software to new...
Is that because its already rooted or it didn't actually work properly yesterday ?
Thanks

After reading a bit on google and on this forum seems that Unrevoked may be the issue someone else with the same problem got it sorted by using Unrevoked 3.21 rather than the 3.32 that the unrevoked website installs...
Next question anyone know where i can get 3.21 been googling and can't find anything that will actually download..
Again many thanks

How about PMing the person who sorted the problem out to see if they still have 3.2.1 on their machine? I thought I did but on checking I've got 3.3.2 - sorry!

Hi
I had to use AlphaRev to be able to flash custom firmware. Unrevoked did root the phone but didn't s-off. If you plan to use Unrevoked VirtualBox method get VBox v3.xx, v4.xx has something messed with usb passthrough

I managed to find a version of the unrevoked that was suggested but it hasn't made any difference...
I've been ages reading and going around in circles
The Hboot is 0.93.0001
The phone appears to be rooted as superuser is on it and appears to be working.
THe phone will boot into recovery but recovery doesn't work
I've tried using a different recovery with rom manager but it makes no difference when i boot into recovery its the same Clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.7 even though in Rom manager it says its changed...
As it boots into recovery there are a few messages underneath
e:cant find misc:
e:cant mount cache : recovery/command
and a few other lines which i can't remember but similiar
I've tried removing and flashing a different recovery via adb and i get a message saying "remote not allowed"
I've tried flashing recovery with a terminal emulator but can't get it to work either.
Do i need to do the alpharev to get S-Off first before i can sort out recovery ? and if so any info on how to do this, again many thanks and sorry for so many questions.
I've rooted Magic's, Legends, HD2's and my Desire HD but this desire for my missus does have me a bit stumped...

I wonder if fake flash would help in this situation?
Might be a viable way to get recovery functioning...

These look like about the same as the ones I get

OK... I don't know why, but this worked for me (and my guru). Instead of pressing the power button as the enter button during the rooting and restore process, we pressed the mouse button and it all worked fine. The errors still showed up but they didn't cause any problems. I think this might have been one of the first suggestions but I seem to have missed it (this is what you get when you stay up 'til stupid-o'clock trying to sort stuff out).
I'm up & running now and I hope this helps some others having the same issues.
Thanks to all those who provided suggestions.

Just to clarify this point, Rooting and S-OFF are 2 totally different things.
Root access is to the loaded ROM on the phone. It allows you to gain access to places you normally can't go inside android like \system and \recovery
S-OFF is turning signature verification off in the Bootloader. the bootloader is the lowest system level you can go and as such can do some pretty serious things there.

Yes, I know this. S-Off option was selected in Unrevoked menu (and didn't work). AlphaRev 1.8 (LiveCD) didn't work on unrooted phone but after rooting did it's job

Finally success i think sometimes you can read so much info you get confused.
Did alpharev via CD and installed alpharev-cwm recovery option and its all working as it should be, can't believe how simple it turned out to be in the end...
Thanks to all who replied much appreciated...

Hello, i am using oxygen 2.0.3 ROM now. I had been flashing roms with recovery for a few times. But now, it seems like recovery is unable to detect changes to my sdcard.
Whenever i boot into recovery to install zip from sdcard, it will show me the folders and zip files that i had before. Any changes i made to the sdcard was not reflected.
I search through the web and this forum and you seems to have the closest issue that i am experiencing. It would be great if you can advice if your method can solve my problem as well and what are the detail steps you took to solve it. Thanks alot man.

Hi mate the issue i had was that recovery didn't seem to install properly at all and i could see the rom etc on the sdcard and any changes i made but it wouldn't work, i also had issue's with not being able to push commands through adb.
What worked for me was creating the Alpharev ISO image on a CD and running it following the instructions, it was incredibly simple but i had a stock rooted rom on my desire.
The alpharev instructions are here
http://alpharev.nl/
Downloadf the Flash utility then burn the flash utility (still zipped) to a CD shut down your laptop press F12 as it boots choose boot from CD once the laptop screen goes black plug your phone in (i had mine on charge only) you also need to make sure USB debugging is checked...
And follow the instructions for me it S-Off'd the phone and installed the Alpharev-CWM recovery which is working as it should...
Not sure thats going to cure your issue though as it seems you have an issue with your recovery reading the SDcard this wasn't an issue for me...

Do you see changes made to sd card when booted rather than in recovery i.e. if you add a zip to SD and reboot to your rom, do you see the SD, then you don't see it if you reboot again to recovery?

Yes. I see the changes made to the SD card in my ROM. But the changes don't get reflected when i am in recovery.

Is your issue occurring after you mount the card in usb mode in recovery and then adding file and then trying to flash that zip? if so, then you can see that file by choosing reboot recovery option
Swyped with my Starburst Classic based Desire with Intelligent Data2sd

I transfer the files while i turn on the usb for data transfer in the rom. Do i have to do the file transfer while i'm in recovery?
I used to be able to do it previously. I am not sure what happened along the way and it stopped working now. I did delete all the files on my SD card before having this issue. Not sure if thats the course and if there is a fix for that.
Thanks!

Well if you were doing it while booted up, sorry I have no idea why it doesn't work then.
Solution is to reflash your recovery

[Q] Searched and searched, No help or not applicable

Please forgive me and understand I have done my best to find a result before asking this question. For two days I have searched and as much as I hate to ask, I NEED HeLP.
I was running cm7 rc3 and looking around to what other roms interested me. I attempted to flash leedroid from clockwork, selected wipe data and wipe cache, and phone went to bootloader(?) and began the initial steps, wiped and formatted, etc... then said it couldnt find sd-ext. Boots to htc white screen with logo, and freezes. Any attempt to get back to bootloader(?) fails, power volume up or down. HTC sync cannot recognize my device and safely remove hardware pops up. I found metatrons patch, alignment-zip. and downloaded it to sd card via sd adapter on computer. Tried reinserting into Inspire and still, its Power on to htc logo screen - freeze. I have read where peeps can attempt fastboot, and find bootloader or recovery, but either I am forgetting something, or have a unique situation, or I am bricked? I feel I havent exhausted all my options yet, but despite fervently searching, and other forums, cannot find a result. this is my first post, and if anyone could help me, I will get my shizzle running and leave the phone mods and everything in between to the pros...
P.S. can I move or should I move alignment-zip. to a different or certain folder within my sd card? I backed all previous settings up first - before any flash or wipe. Ran wipe-.zip before flashing because the thing said to. did that erase my backup? I am so frigging sorry, i know this has got to get old for you all...

You did not provide enough information for troubleshooting.
Is your sd card formated with fat32 plus ext2/3/4? Specify!
What hboot are you using?
Which LeeDroid are you tring to use?

Ok. Check it, this is what I remember. I rooted my phone using bubbys method and installed whatever rom was with that link, a cyanogen I know. I flashed cyanogen7 rc4 and have clockwork recovery 3.0.5 card was formstted fat/32 yes. tried the latest leedroid 3.0 I believe, downloaded wipe.zip went to clockwork recovery and it auto matically asked about wiping and flashing new rom - attemted flash over cm7, looked as though everything was working, but never got past htc screen. then I noticed the alignment.zip link I should have downloaded also. I downloaded it, but for all I know it isnt in the proper place on my SD card. bootloader screen says ACE PVT SHIP S_OFF RL ; hboot - 0.85.0019 ; Radio - 26.06.04.06_M ; under that it says eMMC-boot and I am not quite sure which ext. is formatted with fat/32. I knew, but Jesus I have read so much and searched so hard I dont know wtf anymore...

[Q] Messed up my device

Hi to all!
This time I really think I have ****ed up my device, and I would really appreciate some help when trying to fix this.
At first I was running Oxygen 2.1.2 with the Data++ table. My device became slow (lots of apps) and I wanted to start fresh.
So I downloaded the new oxygen rom, and the new Oxygen R2 partition table.
I did a full wipe, installed sdk and android driver and tried to flash the new partition table. In the command prompt I was hanging at : Waiting for device...tried from a diffrent PC, same.
Who cares I thought, let me skip the partitioning. I tried to install the rom with the DATA++ table, rom install was hanging, I pulled out the battery and again rebooted in recovery..
To be sure, did a new wipe, deleted all from the phone and tried an other rom (CM7) this one installs but the phone wont boot, i ony see the spash screen (why so serious apharev -> did not change this).
What can I try?? Really want my phone working again!!!

You have not messed up a thing the roms probably just don't run on the partition you have, so either:
1. find a rom made for data++
or
2. Manage to flash the other hboots
feel free to pm for help on the second option(no need to have it in the forum, as it has been explained over many times).

[Q] Can't install any custom rom on Telus Desire

I'm having trouble installing any roms on my girlfriends desire. Installing roms seems to work fine, right up until i try to boot the phone, it just gets stuck at the HTC screen, I've pulled the battery and tried again, but nothing works. I've tried multiple roms, and with every one, the same problem.
The phone is rooted, HBOOT 0.93.0001, S-ON, Baseband 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
Anyone know what's going on? It's been a while since I've played with android phones, so I'm not current with all the lingo. I'm currently a WP7 user
Thanks for the help!

I'm assuming then it would be a2sd Rom?? Your ext3 or 4 setup? ROM manager sucks for this, use gparted or minitools(I've never used this one) and preferably a card reader.
Sent from my HTC Desire

Ya, I tried ROM manager for the partition, I'll give gparted a shot. thanks!

Ok, formatted the sd card, and repartitioned to FAT32, and 512mb of EXT3 and the same thing happens, it just hangs at the HTC screen after installing a rom.

How long are you giving it before pulling the battery? It can take 10 or 15 minutes on first boot. I'm assuming you've tried a couple of different roms.

yes, I have tried a few different ones. I'd say the longest I waited was around 25-30 minutes. In my previous experience flashing hero roms, the most I had ever had to wait for those was about 5 minutes, so I assumed the 30 minutes was long enough, and decided that nothing was going to happen.

i'm a previous hero owner, same thing happend to me, desire is different.
on all desire roms the op will tell you what hboot is made for and then to flash the alignement zip even if your sdcard is partioned , you have to otherwise the will never bootup and then you flash the rom plus whatever updates they suggest .
i think your hboot is stock, same as mine, but you need to S-off your phone in order to flash any roms, follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084
try cool sensation or what ever takes your fancy
1-download the alignement zip , the rom and the updates if there are any
2- put all of them on your sd card (mount it or use usb card adapter)
3- go to recovery and flash them in sequence, usually alignement zip first + the rom and then reboot should be about 5 to 10mn any longer you in a bootloop means something wrong.
just have a good read before flashing any rom , and follow what they say.from step 1 till the end.
you'll get there, don't worry it wont brick your phone

I was under the impression that S-Off wasn't necessary for all roms, for example insert coin cm7. I could not get my computer to successfully boot from my flashdrive to perform the s-off with alpharev, so I skipped that step
I also flashed the alignment zip, and still had the same problem.

You don't need s-off to flash roms, I'm not and flashed many. Make sure your installing roms for the stock hboot, cm7 won't work. From what I've seen unless your having problems with your ext the alignment patches can be more trouble than good.
Sent from my HTC Desire

Thanks a lot! I found a rom that works with the stock hboot, and it worked perfectly!

What rom are you using with the stock hboot? I'm having same problem.
Also I'm assuming cm7 is cyanogenmod7, i thought it worked with the stock hboot?

Ok, so I'm having another issue now... The market is not working, I tap it, and it brings up a white loading screen for about half a second then disappears. I tried a reset, and I still have the same problem. Is there something I need to flash in order for it to work? The rom I'm on is cool sensation v6, and I didn't see anything there about anyone having market issues, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
Thanks again
EDIT: I notice that under accounts and sync, it says that sync is currently experiencing problems
EDIT EDIT: I just remembered that with my old hero, I had to first sync over 3g only, tried that, and it solved my problem.

Under Applications, find the market and try clearing the cache

It's a bit misleading, cm7 does not refer to cyanogenmod7 but cm7 partion table.
You will usually find 2 different versions of most popular ROMs.
1. A2sd
apps2sd, usually A2sd+. This requires the stock partion table. You do not need to be S-off to flash these ROMs
2. CM7
This refers to the CM7 partion table (custom Hboot). To repartion your nand you need to be S-off. These ROMs are data++ ROMs.
So, no you do not need to be S-off to flash custom ROMs, you do need to be S-off to resize your partion tables. More info in this thread:
This explains Data++ versus A2SD very well:

Random Reboots Problem - please help

I simply have done all i can - and it seems that i cant do it right. Please consider to help me, because im noob.
Before i state my problem i should say that i have googled an crossed xda forum for 4 days and without any improvement.
Problem I have is that, my phone randomly reboots at no particular time or place - but here come the details:
First, for purpose of unlocking phone from SIM lock from carrier, it was S-OFFed and rooted by someone else (previous owner).
Rom was installed - Oxygen 2.3.2. and it worked for few months without bugs.
Then, one day it restarted and stuck in bootloops, but it came up for few seconds, or some time (but not for long), and then again restarted and so on. Eventually it held enough to do a factory reset which generally helped, but with one strange thing - clock couldnt sync and loosed about an hour for 5-6 hours (really strange).
Then i decided to try some other ROM hoping to resolve clock issue.
When I go into HBOOt it says:

ROM was installed, along with -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1408936
It worked flawllessly for about half an hour an then started rebooting on no particular action - sometimes went up for some time few secs to 10-20 mins an then reboot and sometimes it got stuck in endless loop (only pulling the battery helped).
Since it went wrong, i tried to RESTORE previosly made BACKUP of mentioned OXYGEN ROM, but sadly, same thing happened all the time.
I was devasteted, didnt know what to do so I decided to get back to STOCK ROM via RUU. (thought it would solve the problem)
I used RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.14_Radio_32.49.00 .32U_5.11.05.27_release_224699_signed
Phone stayed S-OFF (obviosly for AlphaRev HBOOT) but have been preety stable comparing what was happening before, in terms: restarted few times for a day and allways rebooted back. Then i inserted other SIM card ant it began again with restarts as soon it went up and been up for 10-20 secs. After few reboots, it stabilised, but had different problem: couldnt add new account, and couldnt remove one I set up at the beginning (message said that i should do FACTORY reset if i want account removed). So I did factory reset - and NOTHING HAPPENED - evrything stayed exactly as it was - with account and everything.
Then i came across BORTAKs Guide ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275632 and followed step one, although it doesnt exactly match my probs - in terms that my phone boots up most of the time, but restarts randomly...
So I did what I was supposed to do and installed CyanogenMod after following step 10 Amon Ra's Recovery (I have PVT4 device) but same thing continues to happen - reboots, apparently on trying to add account on phone...

Did you try to run RUU after flashing Alpharev downgrade to achieve S-ON gain, or you just ran it over Alpharev stock?
Also did you try to format sd card or to remove it from phone and than to boot it up?
It all seems like it was SIM unlocked by a "fake" code so that are the issues that can happen.
Plus: to gain SIM unlock you don't need S-off and root.

I ran it over Alpharev... Im really new to this so i ask for help.
U say that i should:
1) flash AlphaRev downgrade to achieve S-ON gain (HOW exactly? please link to some guide if exists)
2) then run RUU
I tried formatting SD card later, removed it, even change card and latest ROM (Cyanogen) is on other SD card and its all the same...
Thanks for fast reply

Yes, both steps. With that you will overwrite both hboot and radio to stock ones, that could be the things that made you problems. You will get S-on after flashing of RUU (I recomend 2.3) when your hboot is overwritten.
This is a good guide how to use ADB and fastboot (you will need fastboot for flashing of hboot):
http://androidforums.com/desire-all...fastboot-windows-updated-1st-june-2011-a.html
But reading your post I think that the problem is with unlocking (SIM). If a guy that sold you the phone said he did it with S-off and root he is laying, as I told you it can't be done with that. The problem can occur when you unlock the phone with a "fake code" that actually removes the part of phone's software used to check for carrier and not replacing critical parts (something like that).

1) flashed AlphaRev downgrade to achieve S-ON
2) then run RUU
Inserted only SIM card, and for now without reboots - but this was only 15 mins ago, so ill keep informing about case after testing, in hope not to get another reboot ever.
What I realised is thatr I dont have recovery?
Is this supposed to be? And how will I resolve problem If something unwanted occur?
Thanks a lot for Your help!

You have recovery, but it is stock one (pretty different to custom ones ).
Now after you flashed 2.3 RUU you probably have 1.02 hboot, so go here:
revolutionary.io
Download the tool and follow the process described to achieve s-off and root again (the problem you have have nothing connected with s-off and root but probably with some parts of system software which might be recovered now). During the process you will flash Clockworkmod recovery, from which you will install Superuser.apk. After that reboot the phone and go here:
4ext.net
Download Recovery updater, install it to your phone and flash 4ext recovery. Than from recovery you can restore backup you have from your old rom, but my suggestion is to go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=809328
and find something for you, cause I think that you have to start from scratch to have a proper software (cause you already had problems with previous one).
If you're up to Oxygen again go here:
http://download.oxygen.im/roms/
but I think that there are a few roms on previous link that are based on Oxygen, but a little bit modified with some extra options.

Well, thanks really, but for now I would like to live things as they are...
I dont mind beeng S-ON and not rooted, if phone doesnt reboot again. I just need it functioning, without advanced options.
Are U suggesting that STOCK ROM is not the way I should go?

It's the way I went for a long time until I started experimenting, mostly because a lack of space. After that I found the thread I posted (All things desire) and wanted to try some advanced roms (Sense 3.0, 3.5) even made some stuff on my own on that way.

My opinion is that stock roms are the best solution foe our device, cause it runs smoothest and I think that Sense is something that brings HTC devices above all other android devices. I've never been a fan of AOSP software but I tried it, just to see how it feels. I even used MIUI rom for some time as the first software option.
Anyway, the story with memory problem stays, but the main point for getting s-off and root again are diagnostic and flashing options cause on s-off device you can flash all crucial partitions that can cause problems (hboot and radio-see attachment) and change partition table layout to gain space (see alpharev.nl)
I hope I helped!

No problem, I'm holding you for your word!
If you have no reboots try to insert different carriers sim cards and see if it's still unlocked.

reboots again

Reboots again...
After half a day of normal usage, I tried inserting another SIM (but from same carrier) and it started again...
Not so often but from time to time it reboots.
So I guess, at the end it seems it is hardware fault.
One strange thing thou (and it makes me wonder): When I try removing account it says I should do Factory Reset if I want to change that basic acc. But afrer performing Factory Reset NOTHING happens? Account is still there, along with other settings and/or installed apps.
Any ideas?
