im currently trading my Desire HD (i know i know crazy) for a galaxy s, and kinect for the 360.
Now i bought this phone and i believe it was sim locked to virgin UK, so my t-mobile sim worked, i did the radio s off and the other s off before flashing leedroid (excellent may i add) and tried the wifes orange sim card in it, which worked perfectly
my question is, the guy wants it to be a stock desire hd so if i flash the stock rom will i lose the ability to use whatever sim i like?
he is on vodafone so obviously i need the handset to still be sim unlocked
does flashing a stock rom lose radio-s off and the like?
regards
Sim unlock is perminent so no he wont

and radio S off using
One click Radio S-OFF
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9525635&postcount=1
on my stock DHD and that's it.
There is a update from 2.2 to 2.2.1, I updated using OTA and the phone updates and reboot. Now my phone is struck in the screen showing a triangle with a ! sign. Can anyone explain how to recover my phone. Thanks
Hi ALL! Please help. Thank you!
I am trying to restore my phone to fact default for a girl that I am selling my phone too. I was currently running sense 3.0 with the virtuous rom and a modified radio. Anyways, I downloaded footballs posted PD15IMG.ZIP and put it on the root of my SD card and I tried to do it that way, because that has worked in the past, but now I think I might have bricked my phone, ****. Basically... I tried to do that and it didn't work saying that the update failed because "main version is older"...so I flashed a different backup to try and do it with that rom, but that didn't work either, now I am seeing that it says "s=on" at the top? So can someone please help me... am I doomed or is there a way to fix my phone..?!?! Thanks.

you, sir, are unfortunately **** out of luck. the same thing happened to me and I tried EVERYTHING for like a week straight but was never able to fix it. the problem is that you should have reverted back to the stock radio before trying to flash the PD15IMG. you have a radio lockout, and I dont think theres any way to fix it. its been discussed on another thread if youd like to view it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092170
*edit*the other guy got his fixed so you might wanna try the methods he did, but I was never able to fix mine so I just bricked it
I've had this problem on other android devices before.
Problem
My download and upload speeds are maxxed at the ones that I posted in the title.
What I've tried
Resetting the Sim Card
Flashing three different radio images (Tmobiles updated radio, The leaked gingerbread radio, and *reserved for edit* ), used the PC10IMG.zip files and flashed them via fastboot
Tried flashing different roms and then flashing the three radios I mentioned before (The latest MIUI rom, Cyanogen 7.02/.03, and the Sense Rom)
Looked in "android info", noticed radio was listed as unkown under details
Double checked that I have the right network provider and I'm not using a proxxy in network settings
Fixed my permissions
What I know ISNT a problem
I'm not being throttled
It's not a proximity connection, my family has mytouch4gs and they get a better connection than me
Basically, I'm S-o-L and S-o-Ideas. Help? Please?

I've also tried that with the superwipe flashable zip. Sorry, forgot about that as a potential solution, I'm editing the original. Am I doing it in the wrong order? I flashed that, then the radio, then the rom over it.
Okay update. In another state and I have the same results. Any help?

I’m pretty sure your supposed to flash the radio before you do the efs wipe but I could be wrong. I’ve never done it before. It just sounds like it makes more sense.
Okay I'll try that when I get to a computer. More suggestions are still welcome!

Okay, I've tried your method also, but it doesn't solve the problem.
Did you try someone elses simcard?
Actually I was being throttled. Thanks for the help.

Anyway, I have a Desire Z (Bell, unlocked). I have a AT&T microSIM, put into adapter, put it into my phone.
It says H+ but I'm getting really slow Edge-like speeds.. Can anyone help me please?
Location: New Jersey. Once again, thanks!
I might be getting throttled.. How do I check?

You can call customer support and ask. How much data have you used? That's probably what's happening.

That's nice of you but you don't have to offer anything on return. There's plenty of us that will help you out with no needed incentives.
But to answer your question, can you still get into your bootloader? Take battery off and put it back in. Then hold down Volume Down+Power button. If so, then all isn't lost. You can try to use the stock PD15IMG.zip for the Panache to put it back to stock.

Idk how to do that. I shouldn't of messed with it now the phone is useless. Cause these asians asking for 80$ at mall but its to much
The problem here is that the op tried rooting the panache the same way they rooted theirs friends mytouch 4g. Problem with this is that the panache come with gingerbread already. So they will have to downgrade.
I figured these steps will downgrade their panache with the stock US 2.2.
febycv said:
To make the process very simple, try this method.
Just follow this steps for an error free downgrade.
1. Download the rom here.
2. Rename it to PD15IMG.zip
2. Place it on the root of your sd card.
3. Switch On your phone while holding the Power button & the down volume button.
4. The hboot menu will update your phone (do according to the hboot instructions).
The original bootloader is 0.86.0000
Now reboot & enjoy your update......This is the original T-mobile 2.2.1 version....so no worries.....

Those steps wont work. You need the instructions on the G2 section. I'm on my phone so I can't link,but its in there. You meed to downgrade back to froyo. ADB is also required. So hopefully you know how to do that.

If you are using the Panache, you should be doing this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16858971&postcount=98
It sounds to me like you need a gold card to downgrade your panache to the old android software. Too bad in order to make a gold card you need access to the panache to push the PD15IMG.zip into the card... You can always ask around to see if anyone in your area has a gold card for the panache u can borrow in order to fix your phone.
She is doing this guide. Actually, I've temp-rooted her phone and "updated" the MISC partition for downgrade, but she didn't have a card reader ready for making a goldcard, and the next day she already managed to reboot her phone and get stuck. So the only thing she needs is a goldcard.
The problem currently is getting CID out of this phone, I'm not sure stock bootloader shows it, and it's required for goldcard. If anyone knows Panache's CID - please share. If not - Panache RUU will be required to return to stock, but there is not a single link on the net now. So if anyone has it - please share, too.
Make a gold card for her using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970157 ? If you have the panache just insert a 1 gig card into the phone and enable disc mode.
1) Format it first
2) Click MMC2 and click get CID
3) Click on the website on the lower part and paste the CID number onto the form
4) go to email download image
5) Load the image and patch it and you'll have a semi ready gold card.
6) Put the phone back in charge/debug mode and push the PD15img.zip file through and it should revert it to mytouch4g stock.
Ps. I just rooted my panache two days ago and Im successfully running VU rom.
The problem with this guide is that it doesn't explicitly say that the phone needs to be fully booted into Android and with USB debugging enabled - but it needs to be. So if the phone doesn't boot, this guide is worthless. See the method this guide is referring to for getting CID out of the phone, and you'll understand.
In any case, the problem is fixed (or actually, there was no problem), the phone is booting. Hopefully, everything will remain ok.
Yea. The last time I gtalked her she was able to boot into the device. Also she did tell me when trying to flash the stock 2.2 unrooted rom from hboot
She did mention something about CID. Hope she can figure out. I don't use adb because I can't get it to ever work on none of the pc's I use so I don't know adb yet. So I won't be able to help her in that part.

hello
i have quite a big problem
and I'm in a stage which i need your help.
it goes like this:
i have atrix 4g and i tried cm7, cm9, neutrino and a few more roms
in all of them the device just shut off suddenly and it would turn on by a short press on the ON button or sometimes only if i would remove and restore the battery.
i have tried to flash dozen times , wipe dalvik cache full etc. no success.
i have decided to try and do something, because maybe the sbf (maybe the current one is broken , i dunno), or maybe if i would go stock rom - motorola blur - it would change.
so now when i want to downgrade from cm9 jokersax , to : Blur_Version_91.4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.US
how am i supposed to do it?
just full wipe from recovery, run this script via fastboot ,
and flash this blur version via recovery?
wont i risk hard brick? what should i notice?
thanks in advanced
Ariel
Are you using a US AT&T Atrix? That file is for that model. That's the first step. Then I'd just use rsd lite and flash it.
I'm using the Orange atrix version
If you SBF the US version you risk a hard brick. If you can get files onto your SD card, try putting a fruitcake of 91.4.5.141 on it, and install it through CWM after wiping system, data, cache and dalvik.
yes i can put files on my sd card
but what's fruitcake? what's it do? and where do i get this file?

International ROMs
All missing, please contact me if you have any of them.
I've searched the whole topic , there is no mention to orange fruit cake.
will the att fruitcake do good?
and what is fruitcake at all?

A fruitcake is the system partition of an SBF converted into a CWM flashable zip file. Whereas SBFs carry a high risk of bricking, a fruitcake is safe since worst case scenario you flash another rom.
Flashing an AT&T fruitcake onto an international phone or an international rom on an AT&T phone will work, but your ram will be cut in half unless you also flash a custom kernel. I recommend Faux123's kernels. Make sure you get one for Blur and not CM/AOSP.

I saw that too but I was hoping somewhere in that thread or the one samcripp referenced might have it or info on it. Maybe contact sam to see if he has it?
I've already pmed him. But I doubt that will be of any help this thread is from along time ago. Do you have any other idea how to solve that problem or get that file?
Try a new SIM card before you take risks, I hear that it helps.
I had the same issue and the store gave me a new Atrix.

Only thing I can think is to do a google search. Also sometimes people looking for specific sbf files can make a new thread titled "need *** sbf" someone almost always comes to help if its titled like that.
Also try the above post first. I had a no data/wifi problem and found my sim was in desperate need of replacing.
