OK guys here’s my problem. I think that I have done something to my G1.
On seeing a load of vids on YouTube I went ahead and started to install the hero rom on my G1, I also used an xdathread to help me out
The process went install RC7 root it, install RC8 then install cupcake ADP and a new radio thing then install the hero rom
I did RC7>RC8>ADP fine then info was a bit thin on the ground for the final stage and the video wasn’t that well organised and I started the hero process from the wrong video and ended up deleting the recovery img that had been used to root my G1 and was present during the RC7>8>ADP install I then set about installing the hero rom holding power and home it started on the process and then aborted because something went wrong. I panicked and wiped the phone and put it back to the stock RC7.
I then had to re-register the phone with Google but the phone couldn’t communicate with the Google servers.
This is when I 1st thought something was wrong. I then used adb to bring up the wifi settings window to get passed the Google window. Since getting past the Google screen it says T-Mobile as my network but it doesn’t say 3G up top and I can’t send, receive texts or go online and I could before I started the Hero rom install.
Can anyone suggest what could be wrong?
Cheers
Did the 2.29.405.2 update OTA initially and noticed problems. So reinstalled it from SD card but no help.
Bought sim free, unbranded/locked and never rooted:
Cannot dial out from phone lists or contacts. Going to phone and clicking on an entry in the call list does not launch phone call any more. Going to contacts, opening one and clicking on an available phone number does not launch phone any more.
The only way I can make a call is to punch it in on the keypad! Grrr.
Wifi connects to my home base after a reboot but, after an undetermined amount of time it drops the connection and cannot get it again. Going to Wifi settings shows it scans, connects and tries to obtain IP address. After a short time it gives up, turns wifi off and starts over. Again & again.
Cannot get it to connect again without another reboot.
This is a crippling loss of functionality for me. Can anyone suggest a way to roll back this update so my phone works as id did?
Many thanks all,
M1
First try a hard rest(you will lose all personal data on the phone,pictures and other stuff on the SD will be fine). If that does not work try either the 2.29.405.2 or 2.10.405.2 RUU.
More info - to my horror, around 15 minutes after I had tried and failed to make calls from contacts the phone started making them one after the other as if they were stuck in a spool or something! Ouch - any thoughts?
Backup everything you can and flash the same ruu from shipped roms.

Thanks to all for help on this. Decided worth a trouble shoot before a hard reset and culprit seems to have been an app - extended controls widget. Removed this and all seems well again.
Try this one. This definately works! i have used it.

I was stuck at 2.29 update.
Then i used this guide and windows tool.
So i did this process and it rolled my phone back to stock android 2.1 rom 1.X
The first version that the phone was bought with.
This tool will boot the phone into bootloader and load a stock 1.x rom ota off the sd card as the tool will extract it to sd card and then load it.
This will wipe all your data not sure about the sd card as i dont remember any of that because i formatted my sd card after i had used the tool.
Thats because i had rooted my phone and tried custom sense hd rom.
The only reason i had was of the battery usage as the consumption was very badly increased and that the 2.29 rom was unstable.
PS: I did first try the htc service in Denmark. They couldn't help me and said i was stuck with the 2.29 rom update. :/
After my phone got rolled/flashed back to stock android 2.1.
The next day in the morning i could upgrade again to android 2.2 rom ver. 2.10 OTA from htc servers.
Maybe this works for you as i did for me and others.
Turns out it wasn't the app.
After a couple of days playing ok my sim free stock htc desire is unstable again.
Cut me off mid call - went to phone and clicked on last call entry - absolutely nothing happened, repeated with same problem. Exited phone to home screen then opened contacts and tried to make call from there - same behavior, a complete hang.
No web access either so opened wifi manager to find it hanging on "obtaining IP address" from my home network and continually shutting down and restarting wifi automatically at this stage.
Noticed general UI lag and several apps failing to open too.
Left phone alone and again, around 10 minutes later all of the actions - including trying to make the phone calls started running one after the other. Like everything had been caught in a spool or something. After this all seemed OK until it happened all over again later.
Although the UI seemed OK and some apps worked as expected, the only way to get phone and wifi working whilst it was hung was a warm boot.
Dreading a hard reset as it's going to waste another day or two getting everything reconfigured just so (can't find a back up solution that does everything - multiple mail account settings etc) but looks like only option.
Will try going back to mikep99's suggested rom as soon as I have time and will not be responding to an HTC OTA auto update offer again.
Grrr.
I still suspect an app conflict.
Can anyone recommend a util that might give me a clue which app / sys process could be hogging system / radio resources?
just got another OTA update pushed to me. installed (nothing to loose) and Congratulations my phone has been updated to 2.29.405.5.
Not sure whats going on here as that was the update I got 2 days ago. This time round it was only 4.8mb download so I'm assuming it's an update update. Hope it fixes things .....
I've been having problems with the phone giving an error message saying that the SIM card was removed and then immediately it is recognized and the phone is restarted automatically to start using the network. It has been happening on full stock ROM (old and new versions), rooted and unrooted, locked and unlocked bootloader (FreeGee) and on custom ROMs. I've had the SIM card replaced multiple times without helping. I can't remember back to when it first started, but it started again after getting the phone back from repair (all they did was a software update, but that's another story) I have the issue until I reinstalled Cerberus and Tasker. Upon uninstall of both apps, I haven't had the issue for the last 5 days. Anyone else have issue with either of these apps on an E973 (Bell)? Is it even possible that they could be causing this issue or is the timing just a coincidence? I'll try adding the apps back one at a time and see if I can get the problem to start again with either one.
Sorry about the wrong thread, I could have sworn I was in Q&A when I posted. If anyone wants to move it that would be appreciated.

Anyone have solution for this issue ?
Hello, T mobile GS4 owner here. I think I first posted this question in the wrong forum. Hopefully this is the right place. I wanted to post in the Liquidsmooth thread, but was unable to.
I just signed up because I'm having trouble flashing the latest Liquidsmooth rom. I've been happily running Liquidsmooth for many months now, and my current version is from 6/21/14. I haven't had any problems flashing until now.
I've tried flashing the last 2 builds and keep getting the message "unfortunately themes provider has stopped".
It appears as soon as the phone boots up after flashing. It's right in the middle of the screen and won't allow me to do anything. Every time I click on OK, it comes back immediately. I have searched high and low for a way to fix this. So far I've tried reloading, rebooting, re-downloading starting again from scratch. I always clear the data and cache and do a factory reset. I have attempted flashing at least half a dozen times and always get the same annoying message.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
BTW, I'm also flashing the latest full version of GAPPS at the same time.
Hey guys, it's my first post here, hope someone is able to help!
A few weeks ago I bought my LG G3. It had a problem, it was randomly rebooting throughout the day. I was told that installing a custom ROM might help, so I installed CloudyG3. It didn't help with reboots at all. Then I was told that getting a new battery might fix it. Getting a new battery didn't fix it either. I Decided to re-install the ROM, flashed with Autorec, went online to download and install TWRP and it restarted right at that time..... Now I'm getting "unfortunately system UI has stopped working" error non-stop. I did factory reset but it doesn't help. Now I can't even pass initial setup screen you get after factory-reset because for whatever reason I can't select Wi-Fi in the "Set Internet Connection" page (I keep tapping it but it can't be selected. I think the non-stop UI error I mentioned above keeps interrupting it) which is awful because you can't pass the setup screen without signing into your google account. The worst part is that I can't boot into recovery because I'm an idiot and deleted TWRP after installing Cloudy 2 weeks ago.. If only I knew..
Anyways, am I completely screwed here? is my phone "Bricked"? what should I do? If you know of any solutions, links to the relevant guides/threads would be greatly appreciated.
Big thanks in advance to anyone who responds!
Shameless bump...
