EVERY linux based download has a MD5SUM. Which verifies the download isn't corrupt.
What you need to do is download the ROM to the SDcard's root directory. Then from either the ADB command prompt or Terminal Emulator type
Code:
# md5sum /mnt/sdcard/<rom_name>.zip
that will kick out a code and then verify that against the source you downloaded it from.

After rooting and all? What's all? Are you new to rooting? Sounds like you might have jumped in too quick.

which rooting guide did you use? did you change your kernel? you need to replace the bcm4329.ko file in /system/lib/modules with the one that corresponds to the kernel you are running...
Yes I am new to it but I am really good when it comes to computers
I am trying to learn everything about the android coding and all. Cause I just bought the mt4g Last week. But I followed instructions on a you tube video. By mackster248. Its they ove xda provided

Just a sort of "duh" reminder to always read things carefully before you do anything.
For example I quickly read the title of this thread as "Wife isn't working" and I thought "Tell me about it"
The kernel version is 2.6.32

ok.... DOWNLOAD THIS then put it in the directory with adb. In command prompt navigate to the directory with adb then put these commands in
adb shell
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
exit
abd push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/
adb reboot
your wifi should be fine after this.
Ok, do I need the terminal emulator? To type these commands

no you need adb... google android sdk download install
if you can't figure that out copy the file to your sdcard then in terminal do this
unplug phone
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /system
cp /sdcard/bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/
this should fix it... might take a reboot
Which version do I need? 2.2 or 2.3
great now my SU permissions are denied....

you probably didn't root properly and only had temp root then
That makes sense. How do I get rid of clock work mod. I'm just gonna go back to stock. This rooting is

It's really not that bad. You just need to slow down, take a breath and follow the instructions and everything will right itself.
Some people always think that there is a one-click solution; when in fact you just need to follow a few precise directions. Key word being 'precise'.
If you want to unroot and go back to stock, check my sig for unrooting.

ROM Manager not working?

Is anyone else having a problem with ROM Manager on their MT4Gs? Everytime I try to download a ROM it says it can't download ratings and most ROMs don't even load.

I believe you have to have pro to be able to download from rom manager. I've never had problems with rom manager. I have pro.

Simple way of doing it
Download ROM to computer
push to SDcard
verify MD5SUM
reboot into recovery
make back of current ROM
flash away
reboot

Let me try that. I mean, I reinstalled the application and that didn't work.

I'm having trouble deciding exactly how to go about this.

So I just two days ago received my MT4G and am going to root. I received this phone running GB already so I need to downgrade to froyo before rooting. Well I have attempted to follow a few guides on downgrading but have been stopped each time by the part where it says "use visionary to gain temproot" because visionary doesn't work for me on this MT4G.
I have tried using William's beta downgrade one click but not working yet.. any help?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
They mean use visionary method to root regularly after downgrading. When you downgrade, you will go back to froyo being able to root with visionary again.
Downgrade method here

If i'm reading this correctly.
You would place them in the c:\adb folder
and when you open the CMD prompt you change the drive to c:\adb
So now I have to change all the commands to reflect the folder destination and I will b ok?

You just just change you directory.
for example my computer pops up
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\KOI User>
when i got into the CMD promt
so i use the cd c:\adb to change the directory
so it will look something like this
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\KOI User>cd c:\adb
c:\adb
then i can just push/pull/execute what ever i need from the c:\adb folder
alright well I plan to root and all tonight if I have questions can I pm u?

CWM Touch Recovery question

okay i have the free version of rom manager , and i know that they released touch recovery for mytouch 4G , my issue is that since i dont have premium rom manager , im gonna have to manually do it through fastboot or hboot (dont remember which) , my problem is that i have a damaged usb that doesnt mount or do anything other than charge . so how can i get the touch recovery ?
Use the links that have been posted to download it to your SD card. Use terminal emulator from the market to enter the commands to flash it. Leave out "adb shell" from the commands as that is telling the PC to use adb to execute.

How do you change keyboards from rom

I currently have the android revolution Rom and want to get rid of the arrow keys on the bottom of the keyboard.
So I'm guessing I would have to replace the keyboard completly

As far as I know that is true unless the keyboard has configuration options, or plugins of some sort.
Nope there is no settings and yeah I don't use the arrows at all just takes up space for me

I understand that the easy way out but I like the stock keyboard was looking for someone to tell me how to swap out the keyboard or flash another or something
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
I thought RC tweaks had an option for turning the arrows off?
I looked all over rc Tweaks and didnt see anything about it

If u wanna swap out a keyboard from a different rom just take out the apk and replace it.

Ok thanks and its just a simple cut and paste? Do I have to reflash it with the Rom? Also where would that be located?

Do not proceed if you have no idea what you're doing! i'm not responsible for whatever happens to your device by following this guide.​
Method 1. use a file explorer that has access to the system like root explorer.
make sure you have rw access first
copy the file to /system/app
set permissions to rw r r
reboot
Method 2. use androidSDK/adb
move the file to location of adb i.e C:/androidsdk/platform-tools
connect phone to computer
open command window
type in the following:
Code:
adb devices
adb push location-of-your-file /system/app
adb reboot
you made need to set permissions for it to work
to do that:
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /system/app/name-of-file
reboot
both these methods require su and root!
Can you also add a keyboard as a 2nd one..like instead of replacing one, just add an apk and have the option to choose between the 2?

Yeah. When you add a keyboard (like swift key keyboard) just go to settings, language & keyboard, then select your keyboard you just installed. Voila!
One more question.. I looked in system/app with root explorer, and I looked 2 and 3.times, and I see no keyboard apk? Where else could it be or what other name?

Ok, I took the HTC_IME.apk from the LeeDroid Rom which my wife uses, & I put it in the /system/app folder in the Endymion Rom which I am using and I fixed permissions, rebooted, & it works ok til I try to close it after I'm done typing, then it force closes. It just says HTC_ime has stopped suddenly and must close bla bla bla! My 1st thought was that I think LeeDroid is sense 3.0 & this Endymion is sense 3.5? Or is there another way to fix it? Only difference is the arrows across the bottom, which I like. Thanks..

That's what it sounds like. Try taking it from Virtuous Fusion or Unity, then it will probably work.
