[Q] Rsd Lite Not Detecting!

Hello all
Rsd Lite can't detect my motorola (tried with 4.7 and 4.9 with the moto drivers)
I've already installed the root and 2nd init 2.51 (newest one)
When booting to clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.8 if I try to flash from zip it says E: can't mount /sdcard and if rsd lite is not working.. how can I get to flash custom roms? what's the solution? due to the fact that I cant flash rsd lite I wasn't able to do the step flash on the guide, thats why it doesn't recognise my sdcard in clockworkmod?
thank you

Que raro, xq si rsdlite te lo detecto una vez ya te lo detecta siempre... alguna vez usaste rsdlite antes de que tu defy te quede asi?'

anda! jeje pues si es raro si solo me lo detecto una vez (estaba en la pantalla de inicio) y no me dejaba darle al boton "start" lei por ahi que tiene que estar en boot mode o algo asi, como tengo que dejar el movil para que pueda hacer el flasheo? en el bootloader? alomejor es la razon por la que no me lo detecta puedes darme instrucciones paso por paso? gracias agregame al msn [email protected] y charramos jeje
sorry for the spanish, Its wierd 'cause when it was detected the status said "connected" and it was in the "desktop" of android (couldn't click the button start), I've read around there that it has to be in boot mode to do the flash but I have no idea what is that boot mode (I've tried in bootloader option but it doesnt detect it)
can someone give me any tips or any guide that has been useful to you? thanks again

nuevas noticias soy idiota, para mi el boot mode era power + vol abajo cuando era power + vol arriba ahora si que me lo reconoze pero eligo el archivo y no me deja darle al boton "start" alguien sabe porque?
new news I was doing the boot mode wrong, instead of power + up down I was doing power + vol down, rsd lite recognise my moto device but.... after selecting the file I can't press the "start" button anyone knows why?

problem solved, "thx" xd
the issue was that the file to flash from cm7 didn't let me, I've tried with the froyo Europe Orange deblurred and it worked.

RSD Lite Not detecting
I am having the same problem. I have installed RSD Lite and I have a AT&T Motorola flipside (Eclair). I am attempting to install SPRecovery because I want to upgrade to Froyo.
I was able to install RSD Lite 4.5 and it detected my phone, but the sync failed. I found an article that said the flipside required version 4.9 of RSD Lite. I upgraded RSD lite and now it doesn't detect. I have updated the most updated drivers from Motorola (I know this, because I have the ADB dev kit and can connect to my device via the command line - which is how I rooted my phone).
Any thoughts?
Sorry... Additional note: I updated the pst_flash.ini and tried changing the device detection settings, but both of those options failed as well.

Simple Root and Custom Recovery Installation (testers needed)

Read carefully please!
Froyo and Windows users only at this moment, very busy this days, will make it work with linux and mac os!:
For those who flashed the SBF file with RSD Lite.
Im just trying to make it all easier.

You dont need adb installed on your PC!
TIPs: pass MOTOBLUR SETUP.
When you are on the begining of motoblur setup after you flashed your phone, (long press menu) to use the keyboard then type: eebluroff.
You must be done now!

Download the zip file and unzip it wherever you want.
Enable "USB debugging" on the phone before proceeding.
Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging.
1 - Connect your phone to PC (wait for your PC to install drivers) and click on "Install Gingerbreak & 2ndInitDefy".
Note: When commands window closes automatically, check if Gingerbreak and Defy 2init are installed on the phone (MOTOROLA SIDELOADER IS INSTALLED TOO to enable non-market apps), if they are everything is going fine.
2 - Unplug the phone from your PC.
3 - Open Gingerbreak installed on your phone and click on "Root device", (it will take a while) later your phone will reboot when completed.
4 - When your phone boots, go to 2ndinitDefy installed on your phone and download a recovery (try lastest version).
5 - Turn off the phone and turn it on, when you see the led light is blue press volume down button.
You are alredy into bootmenu ready to flash!

You wont need superoneclick anymore to root!
I will make a video later! I installed Ubuntu I will try it in linux to make this work for every OS and why not MAC OS!

Hi there,
May I know if there is a way to switch from CWM recovery to TWRP? I tried to simply flash the zip for TWRP but then my bravo won't start...
Thanks.

Voy a hacer guias en español para cada thread que he creado
Esto es para si algo te ha salido mal y tu telefono no quiere iniciar quedandose solamente en el logo de moto y tienes que por desgracia FLASHEAR el SBF de Froyo con RSD LITE.
Entonces despues que estes en Froyo, podras seguir estos pasos y no tener que usar superoneclick, en mi opinion esto es mas facil.
Pruebalo cuando puedas!

I try doing it too but no success, I think you should flash first a custom rom, then you will be able to flash touch recovery and it will for sure work.
I will let know about some test I make!

I'll be honest, I didn't try it, but it will work. That's really not a bad idea and would work with any phone Gingerbreak works on....You should release that in Android General.
I would use it, I'm just too lazy to flash an sbf and then set my phone back up again. I'm happy with my Bravo for the moment...and its my onlyl phone...That really is a simple, yet useful, solution.

gracias

Esta semana estare algo ocupado, el video creo que lo hare la semana que viene.
Usar el adb del archivo no te va a ocasionar ningun problema, ni a tu telefono ni a la computadora.
La aplicacion gingerbreak tiene un exploit dentro y los antivirus lo identifican como un virus, solo desactivalo si lo vas a usar.
--------------------------------------------------------
If you have adb installed on your pc, using this one will cause no problem to the phone or your pc.
Your antivirus detects gingerbreak as a virus because of an exploit command inside the apk file, you can deactivate your antivirus and use it with no problem, no risk with it.

I'll add, s1c/rage against the cage/gingerbreak all show up as viruses because they are. Not kill you PC virus, but virus none the less. Technically they're exploits, but still get picked up by scanners.

Gonna need some testers for LINUX and MAC, when its ready I will you know people!

Working great!. Will flash a Rom right now . Thnx to make our life easier!.

Took a few flashes, but I got there in the end! Great stuff, thanks!!

Worked like a charm. Thanks!!

Download attached file. unzip and put update.app file in to DLOAD folder in your external SD Card.
back up your data.
hold the volume button up + down + power button.
After flashing go to stock recovery (not CWM) and do Wipe data and Wipe cache.

The bootlogo can be changed but u need a rooted device, here are the steps:
1. Root your device
2. Install rootbrowser from the playstore
3. Start rootbrowser and navigate to "data" than locate "custom.bin"
4. Inside "custom.bin" there will be a line of text in my "dt/mk", which shows the default cust profile
5. Now go back from the "folder" and locate "cust" and inside locate the folder which was specified in "custom.bin"
6. Two levels inside that folder there will be a "boot" folder, inside it will be the boot animation
7. Just delete the boot animation file and add your custom one
8. Do a Factory reset

boot animation is not boot logo. when you turn on your phone, at first you see boot logo, then go bootanimation.

Ok, I am doing a wipe data now using android recovery. note that I am using MIUI as rom. is it alright?

I don't know how it will be with MIUI... I do this only on official ROM.

ok .. bootanimation change is not problem .. now bootlogo - oemlogo ... I will try later the way I change my bootlogo on G300 - create oemlogo.zip and flash it in TWRP

I am also interested on chnging boot logo (not bootanimation, this one is easy) every time i turn on phone i see logo of my phone carrier and that sucks.
If someone achieve it please tell me how!

Cambiar Boot logo con exito P6

Edit (DDanielGT)
Después de buscar y casi rendirme finalmente encontré en el foro chino con la solución para poner el logo inicial de Huawei en mi P6 , Espero les funcione a ustedes también.
Herramientas:
1, Root
2, Terminal Emulator (o similar)
3 Es File explore con permisos root (o similar pero que sea explorador con permisos root)
Pasos:
En file explore:
1, / cust / hw / / oemlogo.mbn, este documento es la primera pantalla de archivo nativo de Huawei, copiarlo y pegarlo en el folder de su operadora directorio normal: dispositvo / logo cust / su compañía / cn / logo
Por ejemplo, / cust / CMCC / cn / logo / (((adentro de la carpeta logo pegar el archivo oemlogo.mbn)))
2, y luego, con un editor de texto modificar /data/custom.bin, el interior del archivo agregar una letra más al final para cambiar la línea de texto.
Por ejemplo, el original es CMCC / cn, convirtiéndolo en CMCC / cnx, a continuación, guardar.
3 y, a continuación, iniciar HyperTerminal
Ingrese antes introduce su para obtener privilegios de root;
A continuación, introducir load_oemlogo (luego presionar enter), con esto se modificara el logo inicial por el de huawei.
Si no ha cambiado el custom.bin paso 2, al introducir load_oemlogo se ejecutara al instante y la sustitución no tendra exito .
Si al ingresar load_oemlogo funciona por un tiempo y pareciera el el terminal emulator no responde esperar hasta el final, y finalmente ejecutara el comando, lo que indica el éxito. pero continuar el paso 4 (si lo omiten se puede reiniciar de fabrica el teléfono y es molesto )
4, Repetir el paso dos quitando las letras adicionales que se colocaron y guardar nuevamente el archivo.
5, reinicie el teléfono
Este método me funciono y ahora ya tengo el logo original del ASCEND P6!!
Espero les funione.

Olá! Eu ainda penso que há meios sim. Porém, não tenho condições afirmar como. Até porque estou com o mesmo problema, ainda! Porém, eu vi um tutorial que instrui a realizar um método, que ainda não vi se deu certo. Estou procurando algum vídeo para comprovar que o método realmente funciona. Irei postar aqui a baixo as instruções:
Primeiro configure o adb no seu pc ou laptop. Faça o download do arquivo "adb setup .exe" do xda. Pesquise no Google o arquivo zip "platform tools" e baixe-o. O arquivo de imagem de recuperação do Twrp deve ser baixado de acordo com o seu modelo (Aqui está o vince).
Depois de instalar adbsetup.exe, você precisa extrair o arquivo zip das ferramentas da plataforma. Agora desligue seu telefone. Mantenha o volume pressionado e o botão liga / desliga para obter o logotipo da Fastboot. Abra o adbsetup e digite "y" todas as vezes.
Na pasta de ferramentas da plataforma, abra a janela de comando e digite "fastboot devices" para verificar se o seu dispositivo está conectado. Em seguida, digite "boot fastboot <caminho de recuperação>" ele será inicializado na recuperação twrp. Instale o arquivo de imagem de recuperação twrp e lazyflasher.zip com o zip magisk. Agora inicialize o sistema.

"Hello! I still think there are ways. However, I cannot say how. Even because I have the same problem, yet! However, I saw a tutorial that instructs you to perform a method, which I haven't yet seen if it worked. I'm looking for a video to prove that the method really works. I will post the instructions below:
First set up adb on your pc or laptop. Download the xda "adb setup" files. Search Google for the zip file "platform tools" and download it. The Twrp recovery image file must be downloaded according to your model (Here is vince others might have whyred).
After installing adbsetup.exe, you need to extract the platform tools zip file. Now hang up your phone. Keep the volume pressed and the power button to obtain the Fastboot logo. Open adbsetup and type "y" every time.
In the platform's tools folder, open the command window and type "fastboot devices" to check if your device is connected. Then, type "boot fastboot <recovery path>" it will boot into twrp recovery. Install the recovery image file twrp and lazyflasher.zip with the magisk zip. Now boot the system."

Hello,
I think your first command is NOT "boot fastboot <recovery path>" BUT "fastboot boot <recovery img>"
This all works fine until the moment until it says:
"FAILED (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State)"
So one needs to unlock bootloader first. There is a tool on the miui website but this tool only works WITH a inserted SIM Card AND a MIUI Account.
Maybe there is another way to unlock bootloader WITHOUT having a SIM Card and WITHOUT MIUI Account. Which I would be interested in too. But unlocking bootloader has to be done first.

[Guide] Easy Way to Get Lineage+Magisk+Gapps [Xperia 10]

Hello, after several days trying to get Lineage with Magisk and NikGapps... I have succeeded.
I know that in this forum many people know much more than me and they will not need this tutorial, I am a newbie and this guide is for newbies. I accept corrections.
With my Xperia 10 I had a lot of problems. So I would like to return the help they have given me, the way is by writing this little guide.
1. First we unlock the bootloader:
2. (Optional) Install a clean Stock ROM with Emma (easier) or Newflasher (you need to download the firmware/ROM from Xperifirm first).
3. We put the mobile in Fastboot mode (Power + Vol-) and connect it to the computer. I had to use Linux on the computer, since Windows did not recognize the fastboot mode of the Xperia 10 (but it did in ADB).
4. The command to install TWRP is normally "fasboot boot twrp.img", but it didn't work for me (nor did others I tried). Only this one worked for me:
fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img
fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img
I used both. What this does is install TWRP on partitions A and B. It may be crazy, but it's the only thing that worked for me.
5. Start TWRP with Power+Vol-.
6. Install Lineage.
7. Reboot the System and check that Lineage loads.
8. From this step I had serious problems, because I was trying to keep TWRP (so I could install Magisk and Nikgapps). However, I couldn't get Lineage to work while having TWRP.
8.1. Start Lineage Recovery with Power+Vol-
8.2. "Apply update"
8.3. "Choose from disk"
8.4. Select Magisk-v21.1.zip
8.5. "Signature verification failed. Install anyway?" AND IT IS
8.6. We restart
9.1. Start Lineage Recovery with Power+Vol-
9.2. "Apply update"
9.3. "Choose from disk"
9.4. Select the Gapps file (in my case: NikGapps-core-arm64-11-20220222-signed.zip)
9.5. "Signature verification failed. Install anyway?" AND IT IS
9.6. We restart
I suppose that steps 8 and 9 can be done at once, but I preferred to do it that way for greater security.

Tutorial made in Spanish and translated into English:

Hola, tras varios días intentando conseguir tener Lineage con Magisk y NikGapps... lo he conseguido.
Sé que en este foro mucha gente sabe mucho más que yo y no le hará falta este tutorial, yo soy un novato y esta guía es para novatos. Acepto correcciones.
Con mi Xperia 10 tuve muchos problemas. Así que quisiera devolver la ayuda que me han prestado, la forma es escribiendo esta pequeña guía.
1. Primero desbloqueamos el bootloader:
2. (Opcional) Instalamos una ROM Stock limpia con Emma (más fácil) o Newflasher (hace falta primero descargar el firmware/ROM desde Xperifirm).
3. Ponemos el móvil en modo Fastboot (Power+Vol-) y lo conectamos al ordenador. Yo tuve que usar Linux en el ordenador, ya que Windows no me reconocía el modo fastboot del Xperia 10 (pero sí en ADB).
4. El comando para instalar TWRP normalmente es "fasboot boot twrp.img", pero a mí no me funcionó (tampoco otros que probé). Solamente me funcionó este:
fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img
fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img
Usé los dos. Esto lo que hace es instalar TWRP en las particiones A y B. Quizá sea una locura, pero es lo único que me funcionó.
5. Inicia TWRP con Power+Vol-.
6. Instala Lineage.
7. Reinicia el Sistema y comprueba que se carga Lineage.
8. A partir de este paso tuve serios problemas, porque yo intentaba conservar TWRP (y así poder instalar Magisk y Nikgapps). Sin embargo, no pude conseguir que Lineage funcionara teniendo TWRP.
8.1. Inicia el Recovery de Lineage con Power+Vol-
8.2. "Aplly update"
8.3. "Choose from disk"
8.4. Seleccionar Magisk-v21.1.zip
8.5. "Signature verification failed. Install anyway?" YES
8.6. Reiniciamos
9.1. Inicia el Recovery de Lineage con Power+Vol-
9.2. "Aplly update"
9.3. "Choose from disk"
9.4. Seleccionar el archivo de Gapps (en mi caso: NikGapps-core-arm64-11-20220222-signed.zip)
9.5. "Signature verification failed. Install anyway?" YES
9.6. Reiniciamos
Supongo que los pasos 8 y 9 pueden hacerse de una sola vez, pero yo preferí hacerlo así para mayor seguridad.

has anyone had any luck getting magisk 21.1 to work with this rom and twrp yet?
im going round in circles trying to root after updating. i can install magisk from twrp, but i end up in a bootloop, then installing the bootloop fix from twrp wipes magisk and breaks root.
i know 21.1 is a beta and likely doesnt support sony phones yet, but someone might have a fix.
EDIT: I have root working now. Anyone having trouble, DONT install twrp to ramdisk. just leave the lineageOS recovery in place and use fastboot on a pc to boot twrp when you need it.
I did the following:
1. fresh stock firmware via newflash
2.flash sony software binaries for a11
3. fastboot boot twrp.img
4.swap to partition b
5. power off
6. fastboot boot twrp.img (check you are booted to partition b)
7. flash lineageos 18
8.reboot select partition a and POWER OFF
9. fastboot boot twrp.img
10. check partition is a
11. flash copy partition.zip
12. flash magisk 21.1.zip
13. flash nikGapps basic for a11
14. reboot system
15. install magiskmanager 8.0.3.apk
16. reboot
17. update your apps on playstore.
18. PROFIT.
lineage os18 rooted on my xperia 10.

I tried to do it this way, but it didn't work for me (maybe because I'm very new to Xperia).
