Borked my EVO

I have just managed to bork my EVO and need help! I was running 2.1 with the OTA update installed and unrEVOked3. I unrooted by using the RUU. Then I rooted again using the 2 step simple root. Everything seemed to have worked fine. I moved the pcimg36.zip to a folder on the sdcard. Sometime after restoring all my applications with Titanium backup, I lost the ability to USB mount my sdcard. Probably restored something I shouldn't have (I restored everything, thought I would be alright since it was the same release). I went into recovery to restore my nandroid backup I took right after I simple rooted. When I go into recovery, I get a picture of an EVO overlaid with a red triangle with an exclamation point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

nahh man sounds to me like yur just BORKED.
..
:d
sorry.

it sounds like you dont have a custom recovery : \. did you use the step on simple root to install clockwork recovery? if not try running that. you should be able to get to a recovery from the red ! by holding volume up and recovery but it sounds like it may be stock.
in all honesty you are prolly not completely screwed since it boots. through i will say this belongs in the Q&A section. let us know if you tried installing a recovery through simple root and results please

Remove your battery and go back into boot again...you said you are rooted right DL and installl another ROM then install ROM manager from th market, use this to try and recover your back-up

Nothing works at the triangle exclamation point. I did flash custom recovery. Ran nandroid backup right after rooting.
I am able to access ADB. Can I push something (some pcimg36.zip) to sdcard to get out of this?

Sorry to be off topic...I've been seeing borked a lot lately???? When the heck did this term start floating around?

Check this thread perhaps? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
Dunno if it describes your problem. If your phone boots up/has ADB acess, it is never bricked.

Now THAT'S funny.

I got this working again. Even though it was not recognized as a USB device, I did have ADB ability. I restored the RUU and rerooted. Thanks all for the help.

Borked evo>>> help?
Hey man, I borked my EVO 4g too... What did you do to fix the sd from not being able to be mounted? I can only get into bootloader and recovery... And I heard that if you can get into either of those, the phone is fixable... Any help, please?

Pretty sure calkulin has a thread in dev section about fixing SD not being recognized. Also, have you tried removing it, booting, put back in boot again? Or try SD rescan app from market? What have you already tried and when did it start?
And that's funny, I never correlated borked with Robert Bork lol

[Q] please help im new. already rooted

i just rooted my epic the other day. i want to get this synicate rom i been hearing about. can someone please tell me in a very inexperienced way how to get it done. what programs i need to down load. i have EC05 on my phone now. I think i have to upgrade somehow to ext4 or something like thta. please help .

Just follow the instructions in the second post of the ROM thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976194
When you do the one-click root with CWM3 and boot into recovery for the first time, it'll convert it to EXT 4 automatically. Also, when the instructions say "Wipe data", they mean do it three times each to data/factory reset, cache and dalivik. It will wipe data though, so save any apps you have with titanium backup or mybackup root.

do i need to download the one click 3.0.0 in order to get ext4?

Yes, SpicyBurrito references this when saying "...when you do the one-click root with CWM3..." You'll need to flash CWM3 to get ext4.
It will convert automatically the next time you boot into recovery...so have a ROM flash ready as the stock RFS ROM will no longer work.

so basically re-root my phone with that cw3 and then should i have the rom already stored on my sd card before i run the cw3? sorry for the dumd questions man but im new to the terms people use here and am a admitted newbie.

I have a video posted on what you need to do. There's a sticky thread in the general section

You need to flash the rom b4 u reboot for the first time. Try to go into cwm and flash the rom see if that works if not ur going to have to use odin to flash back to stock and start over

Hey jimmyjames, let me give you some advice. Slow down a bit.
You're jumping in to the idea of rooting and flashing too quickly. I know you're anxious, but read a bit more and watch some videos. Believe me, I've learned from that too many times.
Like right now, I'm really tempted to flash the new CM7 Alpha 4. But I usually am not comfortable flashing ROMs, so I'm waiting until it's stable enough to flash.

what files do i need to download to start over.? help please. and i will heed all future advise

Acer, I feel ya on that. I am also waiting plus I neef my gps and camera functioning.

GingerBlur Discussion

It's pretty tough to find answers in the official GingerBlur Thread right now, at least for me search is down over 1/2 the time over the last few days. 400+ pages are hard to go through one by one...and if you just end up posting a question, more than likely in the same space an answer could be, will be a post saying not post your question...it's been answered. Hopefully this can be that place. If we keep our simple questions here, they can focus on fixing actual bugs without pages of the same question.
The 2 main things I'm experiencing on 3.1 right now that I'm wondering is just me or not. I often get stuck unable to resume from lock-screen with finger sensor...it says initializing and won't respond to anything besides battery pull, which eventually ends up at the same place... lock-screen. Finally got past that and disabled finger scanning. And I get a force close of Opera with almost every use...and a Force close of Hulu video during playback...never can finish a whole episode. Anyone else finding any of this, or have solutions?

1) Wrong place for this thread... should be in general.
2) Did you restore the fingerprint senor, or system data with titanium backup after flashing one of the sbfs? I would disable the security, clear the dalvik cache with CWM (for good measure) and then flash 1.57 sbf then update OTA to 1.83, re-root, re-install ginerblur, and do not restore any system data or the fingerprint sensor with titanium backup.
3) The hulu hack was originally designed for DolphinHD Browser, does it force close with that, or have you not tired?

I placed this thread here purposely, hopefully to make it more likely to keep recurring questions etc., out of the development thread. Not exactly sure how to move it, if it needs to be.
I've never restored any data, every time I went to Greyblur 2.1, then GingerBlur 3.0, then 3.1 all my backups were removed and I started over. I was using MyBackup then, and have switched to Titanium now...but never restored anything. FingerPrint was working in GreyBlur...and I have a nandroid backup from then using Tenfars CWM. I'm still unsure as to exactly what that backup includes...just the operating system minus all apps, data, and settings?
I will restore back to greyblur and skip the 3.0 ginger and install 3.1 directly. I just wanted to make sure this wasn't a known bug before I did all that.
As for Hulu, I'm using paid Dolphin HD browser. I manually replaced file with root explorer...and also used hulu hack zip with same result. I think overall Dolphin seems a bit buggy with more than average force closes. I'm running fairly clean installs...haven't even synced contacts or added apps...just trying to get a fast, stable platform before I set it up to use as my main phone.
One thing I have never done is clear dalvik cache before any of the things I have done...never been exactly sure what it was. I'll do that, and try again...thanks for the reply.

I'm having the same issue with the finger sensor. I have to reboot the phone in order for it to work again.

I've done complete factory fresh starts and went to GingerBlur a few different routes today. ie 3.0>3.1 and straight to 3.1 With Dalvik wipes before every step. I can't get fingerprint sensor to work no matter the version of GingerBlur. Works on Factory and GreyBlur though. Just going to leave deactivated for now. Will try again with next GB update, haven't heard of there being a solution on 3.1.
How are you rebooting...does your power button still respond...or are you just pulling the battery?

I have also tried posting this question on the Ginger blur thread but it is too crazy.
Has anyone tried wiping data/clear cache successfully? I tried it before installing it a while back and lost root and side loading so I had to start completely over again.

Are you talking about the dalvik cache from CWM Recovery?

i dont know why, but since i update to 3.0 (and then 3.1), the wi-fi connection keeps turn off couple of min after the screen.. its on "never" policy and battery on night mode.
any idea?

I have been dealing with that also...doesn't matter what my settings are, plugged in to AC or not, wifi turns off until I turn screen on. I dont think there is a solution at the moment, a 3rd party app was recommended to me on another forum to override controls of your wireless connections. I forget the name of it right now...but you might look into that route. I think it was on the market.

hi i have the wifi issue too...its kinda a bug of gingerblur, i have a problem with the hdmi mirroring hack, when i try to see a viseo i only get sound, hoq can i fiz that?

i am havin an issue with gingerblur right now. i had my phone rooted then i installed Tenfar’s CWM Recovery and loaded gingerblur 3.1 from there. now anytime i turn on my phone its stuck in a continuous loop of loading to the initial screen saying "complete action using: launcher or set up" then it immediately closes. anytime i try to load into recovery it says "fastboot" in the top left corner but nothing happens and it just stays there. how do i get into recovery so i can flash a new rom?

well i can change fastboot and go through the options to android recovery now but whenever i do, i get the android and the triangle with the exclaimation point next to it.... how can i get into recovery and install a zip from sdcard?

You can use CMW recovery and install the package from there.
I actually was wondering how am I suppose to install some of the bloatware back? I liked some of the widgets and I have edited a zip file and tried to install it using CMW but it just hangs. Should I rename it as something or am I doing it completely wrong? Adb doesn't work either since the directory is read only.

Need help please!!!!! locked out on screen! Android password!

Hey guys I have a dilemma here. My 3 year old was playing with my tablet and when I powered it back on there's a little Android Guy with a password I have to login. I tried to restore a backup but I moves files around so MD5 were mismatched. I tried flashing a rom for a fresh install and still the Android icon still wants a password. Is there any way to bypass this? A clean install should erase any password that was in the.old rom right? Need advice fellas. Thanks!

an Nflash, which would wipe out everything would take out the password, sure. It should be fine though if you backup regularly, just flash your backup over recovery.

Doesn't it make you sign in with your google account if you get the password wrong 3 times? Try that
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

my phone makes me log in with my google account after trying the wrong password 15 times. after that you can change the password, i think it will be the same with the TF.

That is fascinating info, I had no idea. Excellent to know in case you run into something like this in the future.

Yeah, after a certain number of failed attempts you can log in via google account.
FYI if you want to do it via the flashing a rom route, it will only work if you wipe data and cache in cwm.

Can you let everyone know the outcome of this? I'd like to know if eventually I can use my google credentials (If the same thing ever happened to me).

Alright fellas I tried typing in like 100 passwords and nothing. It never asked me to login to Google account. Maybe its because I have just flashed a new rom? My 2 backups got corrupted so that's out of the question. I'm going.to try installing ARHD I might think the full superwipe might work but the link is down. If anybody has the superwipe file can you please post it. I'm new to tablets but not new to android and been reading up on NV flash. I'm hesitant though to try it. My Tablet was on the latest us update and rooted with razeeclaw one click. What do.you guys recommend? I know it's fixable cause I can still get into recovery and flash roms. Its just.that password verification shoes IP everytime, it wont even let me boot into the screen. Ill take a picture of the screen I see later. Please help lol.

I just tried this out on my transformer because I was bored.
After 5 attempts it locked me out for 30 seconds. After 5 more attempts it rebooted into recovery mode and then launched android. It had wiped all my data. Home screen layouts, apps, app data - the works.
I just restored from a CWM backup so no harm done - but this could be really annoying for someone who didn't have that option.
I'm guessing that it was the exchange server that my email account is linked to that caused the wipe.

Here is the lockscreen I'm getting whenever I load up after full wipes. I never uses the Asus lockscreen only the pattern so I don't know if this is the password default one. I'm gonna try flashing the superwipe then ARHD before I go the nvflash route. Is there a good tutorial for nvflashing? Sorry for the nooby questions but this is all new to me. Thanks!

Nice man. I think you probably could have wiped that manually to get it working too but it never hurts to superwipe. I'm sure you know but there is a superwipe lite version too that doesn't wipe the internal sd card.

Was it because the filesystem was encrypted? I recently purchased a transfomer and noticed there was an option to encrypt the local filesystem and it would a require a password during bootup that is not tied to your google account.

Yeah, looks like encryption was turned on. That's why it didn't ask for a password, this is before the system boots

One would acquire that right here.

I'm having the same issue with the same screen and keyboard minus the safe mode text. I updated to the newest version of the revolver rom, then the next day I was using the tablet it went dark then came up with the password screen. Ive tried super wipe, reflashing and restoring, nothing is working, still boots with the revolver animation and ends up at the keyboard. Help!

[Q] Odin Flash Failure - Advice Please

A few weeks ago, I tried "I9505XXUBMGA-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL" from the same thread and that failed and locked up my phone.
Which I had to pay to get the phone re-flashed properly.
(I've used the above successfully in the past).
Now, I'm in the same position again with a failed flash and probably paying to have it fixed again.
On the phone itself, the progress bar is only 2mm long. So if I switch it off, it will probably mess everything up.
What should I do now, while it's still connected to the PC and how can I successfully flash it in the future ?
Thank you.

It's 4.2.2.
I've managed to get the phone "working" again, by using "I9505XXUAME2-PRE-ROOTED-KNOX".
Which is on the same thread.
But, since I got the phone working again, I can't get WiFi to switch on. Factory reseting via Settings doesn't fix it.
All the ROMs I downloading in the past (MF8, MGA and MH1) with "ODEX" in the title from the same thread don't work.
Odin (any version), says "Not Responding" when I try them and fails to update (using Win 8.1).

But, since I got the phone working again, I can't get WiFi to switch on. Factory reseting via Settings doesn't fix it.
All the ROMs I downloading in the past (MF8, MGA and MH1) with "ODEX" in the title from the same thread don't work.
Odin (any version), says "Not Responding" when I try them and fails to update (using Win 8.1).

Sorry, but I've no idea what you're talking about.
Simple instructions, please.
If it's for post 3: If it's the same as powering off the phone and starting it with Vol. up, Home and Power keys and resetting it that way.
That didn't for resetting the phone and the WiFi problem.
If it's for post 1, please ignore.

Edit:
Just to update.
I've lost all sound and I can't play any music or videos, even the Samsung material.

have u flashed a custom-recovery like cwm, Philz or TWRP?
If "clearing data , cache and dalvik cache" are new for you, plz read more about this all.

Thanks for the reply.
CWM
I've deleted the cache partition and wipe data/factory rest.
I can't find the "dalvik cache", I've seen a YT video about it, but it's in "advanced settings", which I don't have.
I'm rooted , SuperSU is installed.

delvik cache is under advance option of philz recovery
AND DO INSTALL THE LATEST PHILZ RECOVERY V 6.0.0.1

Clearing cache/Dalvik ain't going to fix your problem. Your sound/WiFi is busted due to that bootloader issue. You need to flash a 'WiFi fix' (non-HLOS modem) to match your current firmware/bootloader. Go to the modem thread (search; easily found) & find a non-HLOS modem to match your current firmware (and I don't mean 4.2.2 or whatever, I mean XXUA, etc, etc)

Thank you for the replies and help.
This is the WiFi Fix page http://d-h.st/users/DjeMBeY/?fld_id=16262#files
But, my current FW isn't listed (ME2), I've tried ME3 and MEA, I think those are the ones before and after ME2 (maybe wrong).
But, they don't work. I've tried them multiple times.
I'm not sure which others to try.
I'm going to pay and hopefully get it fixed today.
But, I'd still like to know how to fix it, for future use.
It will mess up again, when I root it. That is unless I just stick with "I9505XXUAME2-PRE-ROOTED-KNOX" and not try later updated ROMs which have worked in the past).

I've tried to flash my GT-I9505 using Odin and it's failed (please see screen grab below).
I used "I9505XXUBMH1-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL" from post 5 of this thread
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824
A few weeks ago, I tried "I9505XXUBMGA-PRE-ROOTED-ODEX-FULL" from the same thread and that failed and locked up my phone.
Which I had to pay to get the phone re-flashed properly.
(I've used the above successfully in the past).
Now, I'm in the same position again with a failed flash and probably paying to have it fixed again.
On the phone itself, the progress bar is only 2mm long. So if I switch it off, it will probably mess everything up.
What should I do now, while it's still connected to the PC and how can I successfully flash it in the future ?
Thank you.

I'm due to collect the phone tomorrow, I received info from them today (Geek Squad at Carphone Warehouse, a company based in the UK), saying that it had been fixed.
I'm guessing they reflashed it. But no info was given on what they did.
After I get it back, I think I'll get rid of it and get a HTC One instead.
Using a custom pre rooted ROM, just seems to mess the phone up.
Hopefully there's another way for the HTC. Plus, I shouldn't need to worry about Knox.
