    Root Any cure for boot loop?

    One M7, Verizon, S-off, unlocked. HBoot 1.61, OS-6.22.605.3 I ran Kingroot & Sunshine to get S-off and unlocked. Tried installing a couple of Roms, but get stuck in an incurable bootloop. I can easily get to fastboot or recovery. I've tried erasing cache, reflashing TWRP recovery, re-flashing...

    Help lost signal, help!

    I have a pair of HTC Incredible 2s, for the spouse unit and myself. The other one has a glitch, so I thought I'd switch phones to make life easier for the SU. Unfortunately, I mucked something up, because I have no signal. Steps taken: Thinking I just want to do a brain transplant and move ROM...

    Root please help, bootloop problem with DInc2

    The DInc2 root subforum gets no love anymore, nor does DInc2, apparently. There are dead links and unsupported things for DInc2 in the many places to look for root goodness (here, XDA). I just got one of these phones, and am trying to root. I've got it pretty messed up. I thought I got to the...

    Root Never mind!

    Fair warning for people who are just now getting and rooting the Incredible 2. Because this model is old, there are a fair number of bad links in the various rooting guides, here or at XDA, pieces missing that have to be got somewhere else.

    Oh my gosh, it's BACK!!!

    Wow, I've been using a Droid Incredible for the last two years. Every day, it's been with me. I recently lost it (or, it was lifted from my car :(). So guess what - back to the old Eris! It doesn't take as long to boot as the DInc (XTRSense vs Business GingerSense), but otherwise, the Eris...

    Root help, radio not working

    I went through the steps for rooting, and did not appear to have any trouble (after the question with the absent GETVAR). But now there's no radio at all. This is a particular bummer, as I wanted to activate the phone today. I went through the "finishing up" step with booting OEM RUU and...

    Which is easier to change - a screen, or ESN?

    I think my phone has a flaw with the touchscreen system. Any app (games mostly, in my use) that requires a dragging action on the screen, will eventually result in a crash. If all I do is tap on the screen, I'm generally fine, but swiping or dragging will get me a system freeze & crash within a...

    Root Two different recovery systems?

    I've been getting a lot of crashes lately (okay, I've only had my DX for two weeks, and rooted it promptly). I go to load the last nandroid backup, and I discover that besides Clockword Mod, there's another recovery system on my phone. I get the option when starting up recovery to select either...

    applications requesting login credentials? help, please

    I've recently run into trouble with my Google calendars. The primary Google account on my phone is my personal account, but I have it set up to access my work calendars. This was working fine, but lately I've been getting this warning: And after that, buttons to allow or deny access. The list...

    Root Market download fail

    Rooted, running xtrSense. I recently flashed over to xtrRom just to try it. Didn't care for it, went back to xtrSense via Nandroid recovery. But now the Market doesn't work. I can browse the market, and it tells me there are updates, but downloads from the Market fail every time. I tried...

    Help Nandroid restore, now market broken?

    I recently had cause to do a nandroid restore. But now I can't download anything from the Market; I can browse, but anytime I try to download or update an app, the download fails. Not sure if the two issues are related or it's a coincidence. Any help? Thanks, Brian

    Root data plan affected by rooting?

    This may be a completely stupid newbie question. For phones with root and custom ROMS, is there a way around having a data plan? Would it be possible to use only wifi for maintaining things like the google calendar and email, not be on the 3G phone network, but still have the smart phone active...

    Root Wipe ext part?

    Loading a new ROM for the first time. The directions say "wipe SD ext part" but when I go through the wipe options in the recovery, I don't even see that as an option. I did the data/factory reset wipe, I did the Dalvik-cache - but the only other options under "wipe" are battery stats & rotate...

    Root Nand backup question

    I followed the directions for rooting, and made the backup as instructed. I have not flashed a new ROM yet, still running root on stock 2.1. If (when) I flash a new ROM, running a nandroid restore with the idea of getting all my settings back would not be a good idea. Right? This will help me...

    help with alarm clock

    Droid Eris, recently updated to Android 2.1 OTA. Since that update, I have a bug, but I haven't found any other posts anywhere that describe the problem I'm having. I use the alarm daily, while the phone is carried in my pocket. Before the update, everything was fine. Alarm goes off, I take...
