HI there,
I am having problem in upgrading ROM in Acer Liquid.I have downloaded everything from Acer's website but after connecting with the USB;I am having messege that this ROM is "OS file type is Not match, Now stop the whole process." I am toonew for upgrading the ROM in Android device.It has currently installed which is I think HongKong ROM.It is as under,
Firmware Version 1.6
Basebnd version A1-01.01.04
Kernel version 2.6.29
Build number Acer_Liquid_1.001.05_AAP_CSL
Please anyone help regarding this problem.I want to get rid of my old ROM.Thanks in advance.
I put LCR on my phone, it is a very clean custom ROM with clear instructions here- https://code.google.com/p/acer-liqu...cker/wiki/HowToRootAndFlashLiquidCommunityROM . You could either flash the bin and be done or go ahead and install LCR (which I would recommend, it is very good).
ALSO make sure you read this as well (warning of something tht could potentially happen)- http://android.modaco.com/content/a...will-have-a-bricked-liquid-mod-please-sticky/
There is even a video here- http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/16/how-to-root-the-acer-liquid/ but get all the links from the LCR page as these could be outdated.
Use the older version of Acer tool v3.1 (from another thread here) to be able to get past the ROM not matching your device error. The Acer tool from their website has been upgraded and doesn't allow mixing regions anymore. Also you can upgrade to the Eclair 2.1 ROM (LiquidE_1.100.05_EMEA) now. It's pretty stable. Just do a search for it here or at liquid.modaco.com.
Hi,
I bought myself yesterday a Magic (32A), but the pre-owner flashed it with Capyslide. a few things annoy me (GPS doesn´t work properly,...) so I want to recover the original status. Therefore I downloede the original Update (RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.3_release_signed_NoDriver.exe) but it doesn´t work - what shall I do?? please help me
Download and flash CursorSense rom from here....it's based on the last official 1.5 release and with little changes to it's integrity....it's also faster then official release is. But of course there are ways of making gps work. Btw if you wish to have gps working on cursorsense or even your original rom (which can also be found here, rooted), you first need to reflash the radio because 2.1 roms don't get along with 1.5 on new radio.
no link
sorry but there was no link - how can i install it?
For that, I cannot help you because I would have to write a looong text to explain it all to you. First of all, you need to place rom in zip format to the root of your sdcard, reboot into recovery and wipe data and after that flash the rom....you can find lots and lots of tutorials here and you need to read them all....very carefully. Btw this is not for dev related, but general. And as for the links, for pit's sake, there's a search function here and also numbers down below for you to select on what page you wish to go....you'll find it probably either on this first page or second.
Moved to General since it's not about ROM Development.

Hi Guys,
I've treid to backup my current rom using rom manager. however it boots to receovery mode and then dump an error.
I am using the clockwork galaxy I9000 to back up the rom. Anything I am doing wrong?. Is there any specific instructions I need to follow?.
Are there any other programs to backup the rom?
Cheers,

read through the original topic

they explain why, and how to continue
Yes I did exactly what the thread said. I am using the android 2.2 firmware JP3 and when I select the update.zip it gives signature errors.
hmm... i think ROM Manager is not yet compatible with Froyo beta
contact the developer, and report the bug, he'll be able to help you.
but he might ask you to buy the full version, which i believe will support those ROMs
alright so, ive basically tried almost 10 different builds, none of them work.
ive installed a new rom, reinstalled the hspl3, after my numerous times of reformatting my sd and installing a new build, it just wouldnt start...finally android worked again...but...sound is still robot like...
also internet doesnt work (i know with rogers i can only get edge but i have wifi so it doesnt really matter the odd time that im away from a wifi zone)
please help,
ive read through threads and found nothing that helps, most people just tell you to try a new build...
doesnt work...
What Radio version are you using?
i do not know, i have the hd2 tmus version
Chances are then if you haven't physically changed the radio then it's incompatible with Android, as evidenced by the robot like voices. Go check the sticky rollup thread in the other android forum here (Android Development) and there is a list of links near the bottom of the first post that will link you to various resources. One of those will be radios, flash that onto your HD2, and try again. I use 2.12.50 and my voice clarity is perfect.
Do you know that it probably took you longer to type this than to open almost ANY android build thread and read the first post or 2!!!
CLRCAD: will only enable sound. It does NOT get rid of robotic voices.
Robotic voices are caused by the WINDOWS ROM you have installed. The ROM has to have 2.10 audio drivers for these voices to go away.
READ READ READ!
Feel free to try the ROM/build in my sig. Make sure your radio is *.*.50.* and NOT *.*.51.*
I'm feeling in a generous mood tonight, so here ya go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787 that is the radio thread.
thank you i shall check this out
I just bought a used euro HD2 because i tought that new phones on the market don't have what it takes to justify their 600€ price (sensation lacks gs II's power, gsII lacks sense).
Well i've been searching and reading for 6days at xda, tried over 5 SD roms and at least 10 NAND roms.
I'm starting to think that those hd2 forums, as deep as they can be, are a big FAKE.
My problems : no g-sensor and freezes while calling. I've tried a lot of fixes and tutorials and still nothing.
Also, the search thread tool is a real pain since it doesn't use the google search system anymore.
Now please, i'm everything but a noob and still i can't manage to find a solution to these problems. This is my last attempt for getting help. Can anyone link me to the solutions if they are obvious (or not).
Also i'd like to ask, is it REALLY possible to use a nand rom as a daily driver? I'm not looking for anything fancy, just some basic Froyo with htc sense.
Thanks in advance for anyone who at least reads this.
im not entirely sure why this is happening to you but my hd2 only lags on sense roms (because I have a euro hd2 and some system parts are installed to the sdcard). If you really want a sense rom and froyo then just install the stock desire rom. And yes NAND roms can easily be used as a daily driver (I see no reason to use a SD Rom unless u want to dual boot two different android roms).
IMO the best roms however are CM7 & MIUI roms with sense skins & widgets (which you can find if you search), they run so much faster than sense roms and use less system space (Hyperdroid CM7, Typhoons CM7, Any Miui Rom are some to look at). This is coming from a person whose HD2 has been dropped in water twice, with keypad lights than NEVER turn off. If my HD2 can run roms fast without issue even though its been submerged in water (and definitely taken some damage) then surely yours can. I suggest you list the roms you've actually tried and then we can take steps to help you from there

I agree. I find the CM7 by boyppc, tyween, sokolik315; MyTouch by Motoman234; Stock DesireHD 1.1.18 by cmylxgo; NexusHD2-Gingerbread by Tytung ROMs the best. Any of these can be daily drivers and very reliable.
You can also put WP7 Mango or NoDo on your HD2 and have a superb experience.
I have flashed quite a few NAND Roms and have found a few to be disappointing but for the most part I have been really happy with a lot of the time and effort that these developers have put into there Roms. I am currently using Dungphps Sense 3.0 Pyramid Rom and it still has a few bugs but has only gotten better and better with each update

Also check out these following links. Mainly Angeldeath's Rom. I am waiting for his next and most likely final update (July 22nd) which should be nearly bug free and as up to date as possible

Hope this helps and don't give up yet
Thanks a lot guys for replying so fast, i'm amazed.
I will make a list of all the nand roms i've tried.
I'm also thankful for all those efforts developpers are putting into their works.
But my primary problems are freezes during calls and g-sensor issues. For the rest, i don't expect a "bug free" rom since i know that the HD2 wasn't made for android and that there are of course no official android roms for this device. Besides, everything else works fine with all the roms i've tried : smoothness, speed, market, camera, data, wifi, gps (since i've applied the recently releases gps fix by tytung)...
I had no call and g-sensor issues in wm6 and wp7.
Also what wonder is why do we have to modify the flash.conf file when mentionned while there are already 3 different packages (from 150mb to 400mb).
My config is: euro hd2 / spl 2.08/ radio 2.14/ mag ldr 1.13 (maybe it is radio dependent, but i also tried with 2.08 radio)
(True2you) Out of curiosity, what is your current Rom btw?
i just flashed coredroid (about 20mins ago) and still, same problems. Now i'm about to try

You should have no problems with the CMYLXGO Rom. I have used it in the past and it was great. Good luck!
nope, didn't work either. Still had call issues and g-sensor issues.
Now i went back to a stock wm rom just to make sure. I can confirm that it's not a harware issue, both phone and g-sensor (+ auto landscape) calibrating are working in WM6.5.
I'm really lost. I think that the problems are coming from somewhere else.
I'm through testing roms, as i said, they're all running just fine except for those two things. I'll try another approach. For example, i'll scan xda "entirely" to try and find g-sensor fixes and call freeze fixes.
But then again, every time i search the "g-sensor" term in rom or general threads, the results alwas show things about "proximity sensor"...
Just trying to troubleshoot.....
The G-sensor and call problems you are experiencing are very odd. I'm sure you have already done this but if you are using CWR to install Rom's, are you wiping all of the previous information like Data, cache, system, sd-ext, dalvik cache. I am just wondering if these problems could be caused by previous Rom's that were installed on your phone. I have used CMYLXGO's Rom and found very minor issues and the current Rom I am using (Dungphp Pyramid Sense 3.0 v1.4) has neither call or G-sensor issues anymore. Sorry for all of the trouble you seem to be dealing with....
Just to chip in on this thread some I use HyperDriod-CM7-v2.0.1 for my daily ROM and have been for some months now. Check out my sig for a link to it. I have also tested a great number of ROMs on my HD2 and they all seemed to work pretty good. I have even tested several MIUI ROMs and they would be good for a daily driver also. But as member Yerdan said it is strange you are having this issue.
I've tried most every rom Pre-Sense 3 and I've never experienced these problems, the only 'call' problems I've had is the Dialer process freezing sometimes when answering a call and that was fixed by flashing Raf 1.8 instead of using the 1.9OC that the roms came with...mic gain is also an issue on Android but http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=860850 fixes that issue. G-Sensor is something you're doing wrong, no offense.
Start from scratch, SD Flash an Official rom then go through the steps, flash hspl 2.08, Task 29, flash .50.14 radio, flash magldr, flash recovery (WITH THE APPROPRIATE SIZE FOR YOUR ROM) and then flash your rom; if all that is done correctly, it's a user/hardware issue, the only other problem you can run in to by starting fresh is not flashing the proper things, not flashing the proper sizes or not clearing out the proper data on your SD card (Android/Data folders and such on your SD card can cause it not to boot)

That brought to mind something about these Android ROMs on HD2...never calibrate the G-Sensor. If anyone does, lay if face down to calibrate it. Otherwise it will be funky if calibrated normally.

For the Coredroid. Don't download V3. Go for V1.6 Froyo. Best Rom, bug free to the point of only one issue that i know off, USB connection thingy, but on Pc you just click "Continue without Scanning."
But if that is what you have then, i Fails xD.

Just to clear things : Here are the steps i follow -
-stock wm6 flashing via "usb loader"
-panasonic sd formater (not every time)
-hspl 2.08 + radio (2.15.50.14) (not every time - only after stock rom)
-task 29 (not every time)
-magldr 1.13
-flashing recovery via magldr usb flasher option
-installing zip via sd card
What i never do (or don't get) is the switching of kernels. I'm guessing that it's already in the ROM's zip package and that it shouldn't be replaced because they're made to use as they are (my guess).
did you check to make sure you partitioned your sd correctly? also do you system partition correctly when going from 1 rom to the next? some ppl tend to skip over this so that could be a possible cause. i know there are a couple roms that if i take the sd card out while using it it wont reset my phone so maybe you could test to see if maybe something is going on with your sd card. i think Bluetopia HD found here is 1 if im not mistaken.
im not sure how you would have the same problem with so many different roms but i can say bluetopia is practically bug free. I haven't came across any as of yet.
if you want a easier list to look for android roms listed on xda go here.
to check how you partitioned your sd and fix it if needed you can use this free tool by going here.
Ok for the record of the OP
1. Did you buy a used HD2
if Yes
There are numerous threads complaining that the G sensor ( and by extension the other sensors ) DO NOT work ONLY on Android after a touch screen replacement.
They work PERFECTLY on WINMO
Perhaps thats your ISSUE...
Link http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1069578.html
IF NO and your is a NEW Device get it fixed By HTC
IF your is a USED device and does not have a Touch Screen replacement...
lets continue with the discussion
just how has xda failed you?

First of all sire, I would say BALLS TO YOU. Having said that, I cant help but imagine your idiocy and laugh on people like you.
1) There are already numerous threads on what all is not working, You should have done your Homework before getting a 2 year old device then running free software made by people who have a life of their own and then Complaining on their face.
2) If you want perfect experience, go to WM6.5 and vent your anger at HTC support.
3) No matter what or how painful it is to search, you must do so. Failing to do so just expresses your idiocy and how much of a noob you are.
4) Having less than 200 posts and just a single thanks, i suggest you quit xda forums as you are of no use to us. And we don't owe you anything.
5) The best Sense froyo rom i found is from Qaliza Desire HD v3.0 with some tweaks from v4.0 (Figure it out yourself, SEARCH) which works no prob on my EU LEO.
I hope you will go through the following video and learn a thing or two:
XDA hasnt failed me. but maybe it may be a problem with magldr. i used maglr over and over again and i faced alot of problems my phone would freeze to the point of having to pull the battery. Gettting bootloops when watching youtube and i get an incoming call, but my solution was CLK. i used kay's hd2 toolkit and now im on clk with no problems. i switch roms alot not cause im not satisfied but because i like customization. the best rom in my opinion is Tytungs NexusHD2 gingerbread rom, but also i used Hyperdroid 2.1.0 HoneyBadger, and langthangs MIUIROM. Just read all the directions before proceeding and find the right Rom for you. PEACE
