Hi guys,
I was wondering if there was a way to get Nandroid files for a restore. My stupid phone decided to s-off while installing Runnymede and now it's stuck in recovery. I've tried the sticky and it just sucks. I have to create a goldcard and then there's this other thing I need to do...ugh!
Can anyone give me a Nandroid restore file? It's for a UK Bravo, (Desire), HG3 phone. It doesn't need to be HG3 since it's unbranded and it was just the ROM which shipped with the phone when Three Network gave it to me as a "yay! You chose us over T-Mobile, what phone do you want?" present.
Thanks.
Didn't you make a nandroid back up before flashing another rom?
Every phone is different. So I am pretty sure our backups won't work for you.

Have you tried and tested it before? I would love to know if someone has got it to work.

No, and I will never risk it.
Hello everyone,
i've flashed the newest version of the PhilZ Touch custom recovery and now my note 2 can't find my sim-card...
Custom recovery found @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028103
I flashed it from version 4.35 to 4.63 so the custom recovery was installed and working before.
After reboot i didn't had the possibility to unlock my sim-card (entering PIN-code).
Now i have no network connection at al (obviously)
Everything else is (so far) working...
I'm using the rooted stock rom
greetings,
p.s. i would reply in the specific topic but i can't yet.
Try another recovery or phone.

Is it, in any way, possible that a sim-card gets affected when you flash a custom rom?
I'm thinking about this question because my sim-card broke just after flashing without touching it...
(no need to touch your sim-card to flash, but i haven't done anything else where i would have needed to remove/change it)
Its probably just coincidence but it's strange that it just happend after flashing.
(sorry if my english is hard to understand )
greetings from Belgium
ye same problem here, tell me when u found out to get it back so I can use that method =p
I've had no problems after upgrading the recovery.
I would suggest you post in PhilZ's thread. He is very active and will help find out what happened.

Well, i've changed the sim-card (have one for data only...) and that one worked fine...
I tried it in another phone too but i was thinking that it wasn't working because i used an adapter to have a normal sim-card and not the micro-sim format so i did the thing mentioned above...
I decided to sent my parents to a Belgacom support center (one of belgians telecom operators) to ask a new one.
I need to work this weekend and i didn't had the opportunity to go myself, it's stupid to walk with a phone without the ability to call/send messages :silly:...
I just inserted the sim-card my parents got from the center and i've recieved al my missed messages so i know that the new one is working fine.
This is undoubtedly strange that it's possible that a sim-card gets affected/broken when changing/updating custom recovery.
I'm "glad" (if you understand what i mean) that i'm not the only one who is having this problem.
Can someone with experience explain to me and the others what could have been the problem?
Edit: can't post yet in his thread due to too low count of messages
Edit2: i'm sorry that i haven't any easy sollution...
Yours sincerely,
what do you actually get from philz? i can't even feel a butterfly flies in my tummy..
in my opinion, the perseus one is the best choise.

Nothing special?
I don't know why you are asuming that i need to get something from it...
I'm just saying in this thread that there has been a problem with the sim-card after flashing this custom recovery .
So i only wanted to say "Hey, after performing this, that went wrong, how to find a solution"
This has nothing to do with liking a custom recovery.
I'm happy for you that you like the perseus one but this one was aproved by someone to solve another problem (and worked)...
I can't understand the point of your reply in this topic, it has nothing to do with not finding/reading the sim-card
p.s.: my wording may seem wrong but well meaning, my english is not perfect since it is not my native language
ahhh .... the device I was rooting was simlocked, he didn't say anything ffs.. that's why
@op try flashing a stock rom(remove sim card), then factory reset in recovery, then flash philz, then flash w/e u want

Help!!!
I have flashed my HOX manually to the new firmware, but got some problems. First it was in loop in bootloader. Then I did something and it started again. I could enter the wizard as it started newly. But it didn't asked me for a PIN code. After all I saw that I don't have any Mobile Network as well as Wireless.
When I checked the hardware details I saw that my IMEI details were gone. Is there any way to fix it? I installed also a custom ROM VIPER and even this didn't repaired this.
Please I need your help.
Many thanks in advance.

Hey guys... My friend bought an HTC One X second hand. It is rooted with what seems to be stock 4.0.3 Sense 4.0. The phone is also S-OFF and everything.. I will post pictures of it.
So here's the deal:
My friend was watching a movie but suddenly he felt as if the screen wasn't rotating... Now (According to AndroSensor App) the magnetic field, orientation, gyroscope, accelerometer etc... In short.. All of the GRAVITY SENSORS and the orientation sensors aren't working.. They are DETECTED by the app but say "Waiting for event"
tried hard resetting and everything. I have put many Custom ROMs in phones before. So i can flash ROMs etc if i have to
I have attached the pictures about everything and need help.. Alot appreciated thanks.

Since i bought it second hand he told me "i gave you the phone when it was working. Even you checked it here in the shop. Not my fault.".... Thats the last time i ever buy a 2nd hand phone -.-
And he ain't wrong himself either... Anyways a helpful suggestion will be alot appreciated...
My question is that "CAN I FLASH A SENSE 5 (4.2.2) ROM ON THIS BAD BOY BY JUST FLASHING VIA RECOVERY?"
I'll then check the other powering off and stuff i read till i get my hands on my frnd's HOX. Cuz im a bit busy waiting for the Nexus 5 launch o.o

you should update it first, that is a very old version, you should have updates available. as it is s-off you can flash anything you want but I think you will need to update the hboot first, once that is done you have a lot of options available to you

Yeah you might be right... So what you are suggesting is I do a ROM flashing? Seeing the phone is already s-offed and everything
Anyways can you please list me a step by step procedure? Seeing this is my friend's phone so not doing this on my own :x
Bump?

Go to settings and check for an update. What we all recommend is that you send it to HTC, all untampered One Xs should still be in warranty, so send it to them, if it can't be fixed they'll send you a One X or a One X+, or sometimes they could send a HTC One if you're lucky :/

Nay i live in Pakistan :/ if this was in warranty even they wouldn't have accepted it :/ or requested a cost for it... Either way thanks for your reply... So doing an OTA update won't create problems on an S-OFFed device right?

OTA need relocked or locked device , stock recovery and stock ROM
and if you still have a problem with your g-sensor , check my signature , there is an alternative way to fix it

bootloader doesn't need to be locked or relocked for ota, only stock rom, stock boot.img and stock recovery

Oh alright! Btw if i flash a recovery via fastboot, then i am able to flash (say) a custom ROM Sense 5, 4.2.2 right? Just asking for it i will update it by OTA (provided there isnt a custom recovery... Since i didnt check that) :/

Oh i'll get right on it when i get my hands on the device can i request you to stay put to this thread? Cuz i will report back here
if you flash a custom recovery you can do anything you want, ie flash a rom, sense or no sense, or flash back to stock and because you are s-off you can even change your cid to install an update from a different region.
this can go on and on and people are starting to repeat themselves and you have had all the information you need to move forward. so what you need to do, as you say you cannot fix under warranty, is :- let the phone update via ota, this will update everything including the rom, the version of sense and the hboot. then once it is finished with all ota's available you can install a custom recovery( I recommend philz touch recovery or the latest twrp) and then you can flash all the rom's or mods you like.
and if you find you still have a problem with sensors check @HTC Venom signature for a possible solution

Try to do the hard reset after couple of days. Once you feel your device is warm enough. Chances to get them back gets better with time

With all the time and worries you have had you could update your Firmware and flash Viper 3.2 from scratch, and that's what i would do.

Not the best link when he is just asking about firmware.
Are you S-Off or S-On?
If S-On, go to this thread to find firmware for your MID and CID. They MUST match, or the firmware won't flash properly.
If you are S-Off, the method in this thread is the absolute easiest way to update your firmware. This is the method I use.
