[Q] HTC Wildfire youtube problem; specs inside - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HTC Wildfire a3333
Android version 2.2.1
Build number 2.22.405.1
Browser version 3.1
Kernel version 2.6.32.21-g0f9e9bs
I have a problem with youtube not working i get an error message "ATTENTION There is no network connection right now. Please try again later." I can't access youtube via the app or through google. I believe the app is pre installed as the option to uninstall the app is grayed out.
Thought of a great plan to root my phone to uninstall the app and then reinstall. I don't know what im doing i d/l'd Kingo root, ticked the box for debugging mode but can't find the S-on option to turn off.
In summary i just need to get youtube working again the above is how far i have got but couldn't say if im in the right direction so need guidance.
Thanks guys.

Hi, welcome to the forums have you tried deleting the apps data from settings/apps/YouTube? And have you tried using WiFi?
If you want to root you will probably need to use revolutionary to gain s-off. Just follow the guides in the general section and the wildfire index from the dev section

I might just be a little tired but im not finding this as easy to navigate as other forums, could you direct link me to the links you mentioned.
The uninstall icon has been grayed out so it won't allow me to.
Thanks so far though

Got to the S-OFF instructions where it tells me to download a program to help with back dating my phone. Only maybe my anti-virus has drawn up a false positive but its saying its a trojan horse virus.
Possible the site could have been infected?
Also, i don't have a microSD card so do i skip the step or is there something else to it?

EDIT.

OK, this is not the thread I thought it was. What specifically is coming up as a trojan horse?
If it is anything it will be psneuter, which is a false positive.
Can you boot into hboot and tell me what version you have? ( power off fully and then power back on using volume down and power at the same time. The screen with show a bunch of numbers on a background you will probably not have seen before, tell me them. Battery pull and then reboot with power button to return to normal)
Also a SD card is mandatory, for the whole process, no sdcard - no s-off pal.

Just got home from buying a micro sd. Emailed the admin and he/she reassured me phone roots can cause this but to not be concerned. Going through the guide straight after i post this. Between the both of us hopefully i can get my phone working order and youtube playing again fingers crossed.

Congratulations download an app called root uninstaller. Use it to uninstall YouTube and then redownload from then play store if that still doesn't help try flashing cyanogenmod 7 and gapps and see if that improves any. Remember to make a nandroid back up from your custom recovery, as if anything goes wrong it is a life saver

Ok watch this video for making a back-up, remember that when you are in the recovery you need to use the trackball to select and push it in to confirm. just do as i do
then download this CM7 and this gapps.
then place the onto your sdcard in whatever way you prefer and reboot back into recovery.
then watch this video
and that will be you sorted pal
@bish8 post updated

Heavy metal you been an absolute star, the only guy bothering to help me out with this. Managed to root my phone and got me interested in making customisation to it in the future, il probably start with the background as it looks boring :good: Also sorting out a backup is a true necessity anyways and the vids a time saver.
However what i have just found out to my dismay would be that youtube doesn't send for updates automatically and doesn't tell you about it when you really need to either. So it wasn't a bug at all. On the plus side i have a root software, back up and an sd card...:victory:
Signing off til the next time my phone stops working.

I'm glad your all sorted out pal I've found that this wildfire forum in its day was a hive of activity with plenty of people dev'ing and helping each other out, but as she gets older the people leave. I'm happy to help out here as this is where I was helped first and show the kindness to combat my noob questions. Also a funny thing is that I only found xda and this forum and started all my interest in YouTube was because my wildfire had issues with the YouTube app on froyo! Best problem I ever had all things considered have a blast pal

I think that Google has dropped support for the froyo version of android. Which means that you must either s-off your phone and flash a custom ROM on gingerbread or higher (guides in the general section) or buy a new device that has a newer android version. Or keep using it via web browser pal.

[TUTORIAL] Screen freezing after unlock problem solution

I have a screen freezing after unlock or call problem for months, tried differnt things like changing ROMs, lockscreen apps but none of them worked, my screen was still unresponsive for a while after unlocking screen, then i saw senaia's post about TP Calibration and tried, the problem is gone so i wrote this tutorial to help the others.
I take no responsibility for any DAMAGES or BRICKED phone, do it at your own risk
WARNING: This will ERASE all of your data, applications, sd card, messages, contacts etc. so make backups of them.
Here is step by step guide
DONT FORGET TO BACKUP
1. Make a goldcard using tutorial in this thread
2. Unrar attached file to the root of Goldcard
3. Power off phone, boot to bootloader with volume down and power button pressed
4. Wait for while it will search for files
5. Then a screen will show up like
Power => Reflash
Vol-Dn => DIAG
6. Press Volume Down for Diag
7. You will see a screen asking you to put phone on a flat surface, do what it says
8. Once that is done you will see a menu about Clear S58 Data, Ignore it, pull the battery and reboot
9. Repair is done, problem should be solved now
This is my first tutorial for XDA, so any suggestions are welcome
Thanks to senaia, he showed how to do
IT works, finally!
I can confirm that the tutorial made by mstfkaratas is working.
Thank you, I cannot describe how much i appreciate it, my beer money is on it's way!
thanks for beer
nevermind
It seems like i got a bit too emotional on this, and my previous post was a little rushed.
The screen freezing gradually comes back in 24 hours. The waiting times become longer and longer. After i did the above steps the lag was gone, but unfortunately it comes back. Especially after i set up to sync with my google account. I also tries to make a new accont, but without success.
I had this issue but admittedly it had just about disappeared when I upgraded to 2.3.5, but still had the odd freeze when receiving a call but not as bad, I did this tutorial and have not had 1 freeze since, may I suggest your problem is hardware (digitizer) Ivaxona?
hi ivaxona your problem can be hardware related or an app you installed, i can suggest you install apps one by one and check the problem
i cant help you more than this because i am not an expert this solution helped more than 5 phones AFAIK
Sent from HTC WFS
Hi, thanks for the response, i also thought that it may be a touchscreen problem, but it got me thinking, that how could be this possible, when after a short time it start to work absolutely perfect.
I also tried to create a new google account just for testing so the possibility of a 3rd party application causing the problem is eliminated.
I have to mention though that after i place the first call the performance response time degrades significantly. That's why i think that it could be a radio problem as well.
I have to admit that i just recently purchased this digitizer on ebay, and it looked like a second hand unit so i might jut got screwed up.
As a last try before i try to change the digitizer once again, i'll try to upgrade to 2.3.5 as it was suggested.
I'm still on a stock ROM, i suppose there is no 2.3.5 official ROM so i'll have too ROOT the phone, right?
once again thanks for your help!
http://www.filefactory.com/file/c0a...5.3035H_7.53.39.03M_release_225747_signed.exe
this is 2.3.5 EU RUU from shipped roms thread, you can try this, if this doesnt work, there should be tutorials for how to install in this forum. i hope this helps
edit: here is a thread about upgrading 2.3.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363693
Thank you very much, got my brothers device to work now
after i upgraded to 2.3.5 the fix is working! Thanks a lot!
Solved!!
Many many thanks!
Ciao.
Thanks brother
thanks brother..!!!
After many months of searching for solution, it is finally fixed.
It's a relief it's not a hardware issue. I am using custom 2.3.5 and it worked.
Thanks.
thanks brother, you saved my cel phone, I wonder which phones this works ???? I tried it with my wildfire s and is worked

Thanks for your how-to...
Sadly it didn't help for me, although I've successfully performed the DIAG boot on my S-OFF WFS. I'm running the latest version of alquez's Cyanogenmod 7.2.0-RC1-marvel-KANG (03-24).
I'm also not sure if I have the problem that is described in this thread.
Whenever I power on the phone and try the unlock-slide the first time, the slider jumps back after some pixels. Everytime, it's really nasty.
Maybe this is something else and I should start a new thead for it?
Thanks!! This really works!!! I had replaced the screen, but it only worked the left side. After applying your method, this little wilfire s works!!! My girlfriend will be very happy!!!
Thanks for the tut.
Sorry, i still have this proble in my phone, one question.
To do this tutorial, we must be S-OFF?
Thx
no need to be s-off, i have positive feedbacks with s-on devices

Issues Restoring Stock Rom on my Device

Hi everyone,
as my username suggest I'm a noob of the worst kind!:good:
My problem is that somehow I managed to root my phone (on htc dev)
and without backing up anything I installed
cm-7-20120616-UNOFFICIAL-marvel
Now, this rom is great but..
-I'm having issues with the gps navi (I already looked into it
and instelled a fix)/(which is not that bad I can live with what it is right now but still sometimes gps freaks out and gives wrong infos)
-the youtube apk don't work (and youtube mobile too)
-the quality of the videocam shoots is not the best..
so, like a proper noob I decided to go back the the stock rom
just to find out is not easy at all!!
I followed so many tutorials on the xda site (always failing)
and now I'm tring to make a last SOS before moving to a new phone
I love my wildfire and it would be so sad to abandon it,
so
since I keep failing I though that I might be ignoring some major issue that i don't even know!
so giving you my specifics might be the right way
to understeand what direction I should follow to install the stock rom
here's my data
Wildfire S UMTS S-ON
Android 2.3.7
CM 7.20120616
MARVEL PVT SHIP SON RL
H BOOT - 1.09.0099
RADIO7.57.39.10
thanks for the time guys!cheers
I'm assuming you have the HTC Wildfire S A510e.
Try the cm7 ROM from this link http://d-h.st/mwM
The original thread is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226765&page=189
This is supposed to have a fix for youtube. You'll still need to flash the d33ps1x gps fix. And if you still don't like the cm7 and want to return to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325730
Scroll down to stock ROMs and pick the one that is suitable for you. Otherwise, if you still have the RUU*.exe from Unlocking the Bootloader, try that. It should work.
thanks, Im gonna try this

Huawei AscendY H866C ROOTED!!!

Huawei Ascend Y H866C ROOTED!!!
If you have been lurking the posts on google for a root for the phone, you are just like me, so i
decided to learn some things. I contacted GiantPune and we worked together applying this root:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/k9b3ks
download poot, install it let it download and install ministro,
start poot,it will then start ministro
Ministro will create some libraries,thats ok.
Poot will then start, make sure to press the poot button and then it will give you some code
At the end of the code somewhere in there it should say sucessfully found and wrote su.
press the built in rootcheck to see if you are rooted
restart the phone go to the playstore and download Superuser.
You are now fully rooted!
All the thanks goes out to GiantPune for his awesome and funny creation.
Let me know if this works and if I helped you,please press the thank you button!
It worked great, I've been watching the forums for a root for almost 3 months. I'm new to this, but I believe I could write a book over the things I've read. I do have one question what is the next thing I need to do? Once again thank y'all for making a flawless way to root. Billy

few questions
Now i have read that many have achived root on the ascend Y H866C. What I have not seen if its there a way to go back if you mess up.
#1 Just for example.. i use dto own a galaxy precedent.. and if i messed up i could just go back and do a clean stock restore.. is that possible with the ascend Y?
#2 Once i achieve root.. is it possible to create a partition to install more apps and remove blotware apps ? and what apps or programs i need to create the partitions?
#3 many have mentioned about holding the up and down volume while holding the power button.. what does that doo? and do you do that once you are rooted or before? I have tried while the phone is off and on but nothing happens.
I really want to root my phone but if i brick i just want to know i can restore back to stock at least.
Thanks in advance to all the great devs and the smart people that make this possible.
Regards,
Pryma
Bump?? can anyone please help the ascend Y H866C community!

It's not very difficult.
Go to the previous page (page 4). Download the Poot posted by that guy that I still need to send a donation to (I promise I will, I have to wait until the first of Feb. when I have money).
1. Save Poot to the SD card.
2. Download and install SuperUser (or SuperUser Elite if you want, but it's not necessary to pay for SU Elite).
3. Run Poot. It will need to download Ministro II. Accept the download and just let Ministro II download/install.
4. Let Ministro II install the QT packages it needs.
5. If you want, Reboot the phone (press and hold power button, select restart), but I don't think it's necessary.
6. Run Poot again, it will give you a success or failure message. If you did everything right, it will give you a success.
SuperUser or SuperUser Elite is necessary just for the root. I don't know about ClockWorkMod other than that CWM does NOT (the last time I checked) have a mod that supports Huawei H866c. Now if you do get a mod on there, you don't need SU or SU Elite (most of the time).

Hope this helps others in know that it does work. Now all we need if someone is willing to assist in making a stock recovery so we can go back to stock and make partitions for more space for more apps. Anyone out there can assist the H866C community please?
I'm fairly new to the android scene but have become very interested quite quickly once I started to learn more. I have managed to root my phone & get rid of google+, google maps, etc. I actually even uninstalled Google Play at one time & managed to get a version I found on KAT to load off of sd card with no problems so far, but still quite small internal memory. I read in my research about possibly being able to "trick" the phone into thinking the sd card were part of internal memory, is this real? Using Root All To SD I've managed to create and mount a 512mb external SD memory but can't get anything to move to it. Still never seems like I can get internal memory above 30. Any suggestions on how I could better unlock my phone to it's full potential?
hi ditch. Im on ths asme boat with you man. I saw your post on the other forum as well. Its frustratin to think that the H866C is not thriving as a great phone which i think it is! Im really hoping that other developers come to our rescue.
Im willing to pay someone to get a ROM going so we can partition and recover back to stock. Please PM me devs!! we really need your help!
Thanks in advanced

Pryma
I couldn't agree more, the phone seems to be a really good phone (except the internal memory problem). It's just getting to the point now that I feel I must ask if it's something I should wait around on or if it would be in my best interest to get my money back and try to get a different phone instead.

Right now it seems like things are not looking good. For now im keeping my phone which is still functioning very well. Im keeping it in the hopes that someone comes and helps us resolve this issue.
TO ALL XDA DEVS! PLEASE HELP US OUT WITH THIS PROJECT. WE CAN WORK OUR A MONETARY DONATION TO THE SITE OR WORK OUT THE DETAILS! PLEASE HEAR OUR CRY FOR HELP.
that might be overkill and some might not like it but I just feel that they gave up on us. maybe because the phone is too hard or difficult to crack. I could not say or even imagine since im not proeffcient in this sort of things. However i think something could be arranged if they are willing for work with us. would you be willing to assist in payment or donation if they work on this for us ditch?

Apps/scripts such as A2SD and Link2SD would work for you to accomplish that, however, I believe you'd have to have a custom recovery, as A2SD is a script that must be flashed from recovery, and while Link2SD doesn't need to be flashed, both require you to also partition the SD card and use one of the partitions for app storage. You might be able to use Link2SD without recovery though, if you partition your SD card on a PC.
As a matter of fact, I just found a guide that will probably get you through with little or no fuss:
(there was a link for a Link2SD tut here but I'm a noob so no outside links yet)
from BlastGT1 at UnleashedPrePaids
I've gotten a second partition made but still am having some trouble with linking apps to it. Hope this helps us on our journey somehow.
To all xda devs! Please help us out with this project. We can work our a monetary donation to the site or work out the details! Please hear our cry for help.
Using Link2SD I've managed to install about 70 apps and still have roughly about 60mb of internal storage left as long as I keep my cache cleaned up. So for now I'm doing much better than before. Custom ROMS would be great (don't get me wrong) but defeating the internal memory problem is a win for me. Thank you everyone for the help so far.

[Q] Help me in flashing firmware of One M8

hey, guys. I'm new to android. I bought a HTC one M8 used (not totally, it's a phone of a HTC developer I think) yesterday. But it's firmware or android is weird. First I thought it's a clone but it's real. All HTC features are present. But another weird thing was when I updated a new build, a girl named Jennifer showed up like first time on my card & a bunch of contacts saved. In details I found out all of them are HTC developers. So, I think it's a real HTC one M8. It has a demo app which stay open when display sleeps, prevent it from sleeping. Also many settings are locked. Like power saving quick settings, Airplane mode. Also it's in full brightness & both quick setting + main setting is locked. I can see & trap it but don't work. Most of the settings are locked including developer options. It's white & tapping on/off doesn't work. The retailer shop keeper said flashing a new firmware will solve it. But their shop is really far away & I've no ideas on android firmware flashing. I know about Symbian flashing though but that's no use. Please somebody help me. I need a procedure for flashing & link of M8's firmware. My phone is Europe version. & also it'd be nice if you can tell me how can I see or edit my external memory card. Please help. Thanks in advance

Try to do a Factory Reset first; it looks like it's stuck in Demo mode.

Okay. I'll try it out & reply. Thanks
The"ok" in Factory reset is locked too. I'd upload a screenshot but I dunno how to. Please help. I think flashing is only option. But I dunno how to flash or dunno firmware link
You don't know how to take a screenshot? Hold power button and press home button at same time.
Good luck with getting it sorted! Can't you ask the previous owner for help or do you not know them?

Dude, I know how to take screenshots but dunno how to post in XDA. And I thought my phone is used cuz a girl from demo app was set up as user. Then I found out their is a about 700MB zip file with those pictures and stuffs. Whatever, I'm gonna try hard resetting now. Wish me luck
You can factory reset from bootloader or from stock recovery.
To get to bootloader, press and hold power + volume up. Eventually the phone will shut off and the screen will go black. Let go of power and volume up. Press and hold volume down until the bootloader comes up.

I used stock recovery. I'm trying to install TWRP with one click root kit, the developer option is disabled but usb debugging is enabled & HTC One drives are installed. But get token isn't taking my phone to boot loader. if I succeed in installing super su & twrp, tell me how to remove the demo app?

solutin
first update its firmware via ota. then flash a custom recovery and a custom rom like skydragon. U r good to go. forget the stock because whenever u will return to stock rom. u will get the demo app again.

how to make your internal storage reappear on your PC and phone

i'm going to start by addressing my phone. i have a HTC m8 it is rooted and i have updated it to 5.0.1. but during that process i ran across some issues that might have caused issues in other areas. when t- mobile release the lollipop update i goggle how to get it on a rooted phone and basically what i got from it was i had to replace custom recovery with stock recovery to get the update and if i wanted to go back i had to do the opposite. when i watch the video i didn't realize the video was old and had not been updated until i got to the part of the screen(on my device) where it was a red triangle. so make a long story short i found the correct stock recovery and installed it but when i did. It said i lost su and i need to re install and that became a problem as while because i could not found nothing that was helpful. so i just tried uninstalling xposed framework mode and when i restarted my phone. It was stuck in a boot-loop. so it took me a minute to get out of that and all it took was me installing su again. so now that's out of the way when my phone came back on i realize a lot of my app force closing and maybe i thought it was minor bugs form the new update but after awhile nothing change. so at this point i'm done with this i'm ready to go back to stock and i cant because my internal storage is missing and i know all of my flies is there because when i boot into recovery i see them but when i connect my phone to my PC it shows a limit of files and on my phone in certain apps it shows files and in others apps it doesn't. i just need to know how to fix it so i can unroot.
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

Try this
All you have to do is type in these 2 lines in your terminal emulator on your android device:
Su
restorecon -FR /data/media/0
And your storage will be back to normal
