Help please!!!!!! - Android Software Development

Ok guys i need ur help. Im getting very frustrated here. I have clockworkmod latest in my incredible and i flashed a miui rom and it started to force close. It would say process android.process.media suddenly stopped and it wouldnt let me do anything. So i went over to recovery manually and flashed a different rom. But now it is doing in every single rom that i flash. Dont know what to do. HELP PLEASE!!!!!

Try flashing a different recovery, such as RA. Then reflash the rom and go from there. I hear that works better than clockwork. From my personal experience there has been issues with clockwork.

miui
Isnt miui a theme? I installed sumthing called miui as a theme and it done the same thing to me, I had to reset the phone to fix it, I couldnt get the phone to do anything, it kept FCing every 2-3 secs

No miui has custom roms for several devices and that is exactly what it did. But the thing is that now it is doing it on any other rom i flash. I have preferred amon ra over clockwork but since without cwm rom manager wont work i kept it. But i might try flashing amon ra and c whats up

why stuck on modaco??

hello all, i recently installed clockwork3.0 to try out the cm7 rom and did so. afer that i wanted to go back to cm6 but decided to try out a custom baked modaco in between. I went no problems to the modaco vision rom and then tried to go back to the cm6 and thats where i ran into the problem. It seems as if though all i can flash and boot now is the modaco vision and desire roms. i try enomther and cm and after the flash and reboot im always stuck at the HTC boot screen which i know shouldnt be there and cant format boot in cwork3.0 without failure error. Even a nandroid back to cm6 wont work. Im assuming this has something to do with the modaco rom writing some apps to /system during install. If anyone can point out my error or explain why this could happen it would be greatly appreciated. Thanke, veritasaequita
You need to flash back to the old ClockworkMod Recovery using fastboot? You have done that haven't you? CWM Recovery 3 is only for 2.3 roms atm afaik.
Cool, thanks for the input bro. Yes I sure have. I did see in the dev forum a thread titled install cw3.0 easily from phone. Is it possible to go back to the old cw by way of using the phone also? Once again thanks for your help

oh yeah, indeed you have hit upon something. Try installing ROM manager via the Market,... then use that to re-install the old recovery.
But if that fails,... then yes, you SHOULD be able to use a Terminal Emulator to flash without using fastboot commands.

[Help] Did I Brick My Mytouch4g?

MODS: I am unsure of where to post this so sorry for the trouble.
So I work for Tmobile and love showing off my rooted mytouch 4g in all its glory.
So I requested a warranty exchange and got a TAIWAN VERSION w/ GOOD SCREEN in return. Like Day and Night.
Upon Receiving my warranty exchange phone it was 2.2.1. I attempted the same Visionary Root Process, (however was there some extra file i needed to DL? i forget)
After rooting my new phone, S-Off, I had flashed FAUX stock kernel 0.4.0b.
THEN THIS HAPPENS:
I cant get past the mytouch 4g splash screen. The first logo that appears. It gets stuck or bootloops. I can HBOOT and get into recovery 3.0.0.5
This is all i can do...i already asked for another warranty exchange...but in the meanwhile..how can i fix this problem or what did i do wrong?
ALSO can you backup one mytouch 4g and load it back up on another mytouch 4g with the same sd card? Thanks!
I had this problem with my MT4G when I flashed his kernal. It seems that his kernals are not designed to work with every 4g device. I hope you did a nandroid backup on the device. I was never able to get past the mytouch splash screen with his kernals

Well, at since you can get into recovery there should be a number of things you can do to get your phone to boot.
Download a new ROM to flash, if you are on clockwork 3 then you need CM7.
Clockwork has usb drive ability, turn it on, transfer the ROM then flash.
If you can get into HBoot or Recovery on ANY phone, you're safe. Hell, if you can't get into HBoot, your phone wouldn't even start up since HBoot is basically the equivalent to BIOS.
THE VERSION OF CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY YOU USE IS CRITICAL!!!
The version you are using is for Android 2.3 only.
Flash a v2 Recovery with adb or fastboot and reinstall your kernel, or install CM7.

I am trying to do this. How would I get my comp.to.recognize the devise. Sometimes it says mass storage device detected sometimes not. So I need cm7 rom to b able.to boot?

If you've ever connected it via USB, it should have installed the drivers automatically (at least on Windows). I think the ADB driver only installs if you had "USB Debugging" checked. Mass Storage usually only refers to mounting the SD card; the driver for ADB is different. Look for something like Android Phone or Android ADB Interface in your device manager (again assuming Windows).
If you have ADB set up, try running the adb devices command. If it spits back the serial number of your phone, you should be okay to proceed.
Don't exchange the phone, fix it...
Just use another phone to copy the latest CM7 to the root of your sdcard and flash, if that doesn't work do the same thing with a PD15IMG.zip file to the root of your sdcard, hboot and restore to stock.
I have no problem with someone doing a warranty exchange for a hardware issue, but if you break your phone, don't make someone else pay for it...
i ended up solving the problem by doing what some of you had suggested. I flashed CM7 and WAH-LaH! when the phone got past the splash screen into CM7 i was on cloud 9.
Now What are the benefits of running CM7? as opposed to going back to Sense w/ Faux kernel again?
PLUS
how would i go back to a sense type rom again? would i go back into rom manager and flash a different recovery?
XDA you have been so helpful!
___bonus__also the haptic feedback on this phone was not as strong as my original..though idk if its just me or not..should i call tmobile and stop shipment of the OTHER phone? how is it i have a taiwan version plum W/ good screen?
There are no Sense-based Gingerbread (Android 2.3) ROMs available now ... Best practice its to make a Nandroid backup of CM7 with your installed CWM Recovery, then flash a version 2.x of CWM Recovery to install any Froyo (Android 2.2) based ROM.

Good to see it is working.
Its mostly personal preference at this point. Sense on the MT4G is pretty responsive and has some nice features. CM7 has its own tweaks and features. You loose the sense widgets but many can be replaced with alternatives in the market. You gain and loose relative in both ROMs So try out both and decide.
Use ROM Manager app to flash a new recovery. One of the 2. versions, then flash a froyo based ROM.
what about flashing kernels..are those "roms"
is cm7 itself pretty battery efficient? i still downloaded setcpu and set it to 11---.
2.XXX ..u mean like 2.5.1.4 for example..sorry not lookin at the phone atm.
++bonus
i also dl the cynogyn updater or wut not..wut url do i add for themes?

Kernels are not ROMs, the kernel is the underlying software of an OS. The kernel talks to the hardware and lets different parts of the OS communicate. Kernels are ROM specific, or Framework specific. A sense ROM can not use a AOSP kernel and vice versa.
CM ROMs can be good on battery, or not. It all depends on personal use and how you set it up.
That is a good recovery to use when flashing sense ROMs.
Not sure about the updater. If it is the one I am thinking, it hasn't been updated in a while. I think it has been abandoned in favor of ROM Manager. CM updater did come in some of his older ROMs, before ROM manager became the norm.
So I can or cannot flash fauxs kernel. I really liked the smartass profile. Also..I'm on cm 7 now...y do I get force closes on my market.

As people have already said, you used the wrong version of clockwork, also, use clockwork to flash a new rom. And make sure you use the right version.

Try fix permissions. If that does not work, do a full wipe (factory reset). If that still does not work, try re-flashing the ROM.
If you flashed a new kernel before you started having issues, this may fix it, or you may need to wipe caches and re-flash the kernel.

[Q] Flashing issues

Hey guys,
Had my Nexus for just over a year now, direct from google. i've been flashing roms and kernels for about 6 months, however since upgrading recovery to CWM 3.0 i've had nothing but problems.
Ive downgraded CWM to 2.5 and even switched to Amon RA 2.2.1, still having issues flashing.
Mainly themes, but alot of roms are refuses to flash too. leaving me stuck on the nexus X splash screen when switching on.
i've just flashed to cm6.1 and tried to flash an old theme i used to use, and even that failed. and im completely stumped.
I can only imagine that when flashing CWM through rom manager, it changed some other system files perhaps? Im not going to even pretend i can hold more than my own, hence this post, im stumped. does anybody know what may/could of happened? and what i can do to fix it?
Thanks in advance

when you wipe you do a complete wipe, /system, cache and all?
edit:
try and flash the zip from temasek signature.

Try reflash the fastboot region on your phone

Cant get passed boot animation screen

Rooted using unrevoked. Flashed to evio 3 and trying to flash different roms such as CM 7, or Decks 1.0 and it wont get passed the boot animation screen.
The animation keeps looping and I end up restoring it back to evio 3 with manual recovery mode boot.
I tried cleaning the caches before flashing and it wont work.
Flashed with different methods as well.. Rom Manager and manual install zip from sd on recovery boot menu..
Im new to flashing roms so please let me know if you see anything wrong in my steps. I have titanium back up, but I dont think I have my stock rom backed up for some reason..
Did you wipe EVERYTHING before flashing?
all the caches it specifies on the pop up from Rom Manager, yes.
I havent wiped it to factory, re-root and flash if that is what you are asking.
Ok, wiped everything and got it to boot into new rom but marketplace is gone and its functioning bad. apps arent working and I cant restore apps or contacts..
You need to flash gapps to get your market and other google apps - this will then allow you to sync your contacts, calendar, etc. There should be a link to it in the rom's thread.

For the love of God do some damn research and learn something before you go and ruin your phone.

Just go ahead and reinstall the RUU. Search on youtube for unrooting htc evo. I believe the video is from zedomax. Great tutorial for getting your phone back to stock.

MIUI on my DX - And my DX experience so far.

Hey guys, I just wanted to share my experience so far. I can't post on the MIUI page because I don't have enough posts, so I'll share here for anyone interested.
For anyone wanting to try MIUI for the DX, here's my experience, some tips, and suggestions.
-Beware, installing or trying to install ANY ROM may brick your phone. although it's very rare and unlikely to be unable to find a solution to problems, it can and has happened. so take caution and read instructions and so-forth carefully.
Some history of my DX. I soft-bricked my phone back in the early months of the DX trying to deodex it to install themes. It was stuck on M logo for 2 days before i learned enough from scratch to find out what an SBF was, where to find it, and how to flash my phone back to stock. Ever since then these nice folk on XDA-developers forums and other droid forums have helped me successfully mod my phone many times, through Q&A, detailed instructions, and a little luck.
I've rooted my phone using the command method, Z4Root, and several other processes. Some were hard to figure out, some soft-bricked my phone, most were easy as pie. I'm on a Z4Root atm.
The first successful ROM I installed was GUMMY-JAR. I liked it, it was good to me. nothing like the comprehensive ROMs out now though.
Then I jumped to Liberty 1.5, Liberty x.x etc... Liberty was awesome, but was still basically Froyo with advanced options. I loved it.
Now, just today, I've installed MIUI. And let me tell you, its amazing!
For anyone running Froyo Liberty ROMs, I believe that you can install MIUI right over the top. I didn't think it was going to work, as I hadn't seen anyone mention if it did or not over the top of Liberty 1.5.
If you want to install MIUI, go here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1181486
You MUST be rooted, and be running FROYO, NOT GB! You must also have the Droid X bootstrapper.
I won't give instructions, as I'm not qualified to do so. But I can tell you what I did from Liberty 1.5. MAKE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP FIRST! 1) I downloaded the MIUI ROM from the above XDA post to my SD card on my phone. 2) I clicked 'bootstrap recovery' on the DX bootstrapper app, then 'reboot recovery.' My phone booted into clockwork recovery mode. 3) wiped data/factory reset. 4) cleared cache. 5) install from SD Card. 6) install MIUI.zip i downloaded from the link i posted above. let it run it's course. rebooted. DONE.
It's really that easy if you are running the DX stock Froyo kernal.
Keep in mind with MIUI, it does NOT auto-sync your Google account. you need to go into the options>>accounts/sync and add your Google account. You can then re-install apps from your backup or just re-download them. Make sure you've synced your contacts with your Google account so they will be there when you add your Google account.
Some thoughts on MIUI...
There is NO STOCK APP DRAWER. I recommend ADW launcher or Launcher PRO. The MIUI launcher inst bad, but it's like iOS in that there's no app drawer. It's just a bunch of screens with all your app icons like an iPhone.
You can download theme's and customize themes through settings>>personal>>theme manager. MIUI allows you to change fonts, boot animation, boot audio, lock-screen style, status bar, icons, launcher, wallpapers, text style, dialer style etc. There's tons of pre-made packages, but you can also change them all individually and create one you like best. You can do all of this directly from the settings menu including looking up new themes, downloading them, and applying them.
MIUI is running on 2.3.4 GB. So it wont say 2.2 anymore after you install. (I believe the kernal is still Froyo though? Please correct me if I am wrong)
I really hope this helps some of you newbies. I am thankful for all of you that have made posts like this that I have found useful in the past.
Note- some people are having issues installing MIUI. They are getting bootlooped on the M logo for some reason. I have no idea why this is, it worked perfectly for me first try. Just remember to follow the instructions on the ROM page, and that you are running the correct version of Android. You shouldn't get a boot-loop if you do so.
Hope this helps!
i have a question.... and this question is what will decide if i keep this or go back to liberty gingerbread....
how the hell do i flash anything.. i can't even install clockwork mod without getting bootloops.... and i'd love to flash certain apps onto this.... but if this can not be done i will have to go back.... the only thing going into recovery does is use the retarded original recovery... and that is a big deal.. if i ruin my phone on the go and need to pullup a backup i can not do this with this rom and i will end up phoneless until i can get to a computer to sbf

What exactly are you asking? "Flashing" is the process of basically overwriting your current Android OS with an Android OS SBF. If you are trying to install MIUI, you cannot do it with Gingerbread installed on your phone. "You MUST be on CyanogenMod 7 or .340 Froyo to flash this rom!" (MIUI)
If you want to install MIUI, i think the best bet would be SBF flashing to stock DX 2.2 .340 FROYO, re-rooting, then using the DX boot-strapper to boot into recovery. Then installing the MIUI .zip from SDcard in the recovery menu. Everything should work fine after that. Rmember you CANNOT go into recovery using DX boot-strapper once this ROM is installed. you CAN go into recovery with this ROM using ROM-manager. This is what I have experienced so far, and what others have said also.
no.. i already have the rom installed... i just want to be able to go into recovery without needing to be booted up.
i'm trying to install some zips through clockwork such as the old blur camera and a few other things... i will install rom manager and see how it goes from there... i love the UI of this rom but as far as being comfortable and stable.. liberty gingerbread has my vote as of now
i've cleared my cache and data several times and i get force closes alot. and this is a clean install coming straight after an SBF.
with liberty gingerbread i had the ability to set it so every phone reboot, even if a battery pull, would boot directly into clockwork mod.. making it easy for me in case i installed a zip that would get me into bootloop
Hmm, sorry mate, I dunno what to tell ya. Try looking aroudn forums or startign a new thread. someone more knowledgable than you or me will help you out.
thanks for everything though!! this really is a beautiful rom and i'd love to stick with it... i'll bite the bullet for the meantime and post around to get some help... i'd love to post in the developer section but i don't have enough posts yet.. haha

You need to install Rom Manager, and select flash Clockwork Recovery. Make sure you select Droid X (2nd Init). Then you can reboot into recovery with Rom Manager :-D

but the problem is that i would like to be able to go into recovery without having to do it through an app... i'd like to make it so every reboot (including battery pull) makes it boot into recovery. thats how i had liberty gingerbread doing it... if not.. i can live with it.. i'll just be a little more careful on what i'm installing
Just wanted to chime in about MIUI rom, I just flashed it yesterday and am ABSOLUTELY loving it thus far. I had no trouble at all installing the rom what-so-ever. I used ROM Manager to do the whole thing: downloaded newest ver. of MIUI, backup current ROM, wipe data and dalvik. Let it run its course and it rebooted and was up and running in no time flat!
