OK, if some of the gurus on this forum can give me some advice, I would certainly appreciate it!
My A700 was rooted and bootloader unlocked. I could boot to recovery, could see the unlocked script, etc,but since I wasn't doing CWM, it didn't work, it went to the "belly up Android guy with a red triangle, but at least I do know it tried.
Hello,
I am currently running rooted stock rom with HTC Dev unlocked bootloader with clockwork recovery. When I tried to download and install OTA it of course fails. I installed stock recovery, same thing installation always stucks at 1/3. I tried relocking bootloader, i tried un root.
This weird problem started when I was trying to install PureX Audio Mod. I have stock .434 rooted and locked bootloader. I have installed the CWM for locked bootloaders and it was working flwalessly. I also disabled flashing stock recovery on reboot and was working with the device.
Background: I am still on ICS 4.0.4 rooted and unlocked (atleast ez unlock says im unlocked and i have superuser and voodoo says im still rooted) .
However, when I try to flash a custom recovery , ROM manager gets stuck at 100 % and closes. I have also tried installing a custom recovery via EZ recovery, and it says its flashed.
So I went back to stock rom after trying several rom and I got a update notification so I just downloaded it and then I check with Samsung Kies and I have the latest stock rom.
Now I lost root access so I rooted my phone again and flashed clock work recovery using Odin took out the battery before first reboot so it doesn't overwrite it and reboot directly to clock work recovery!
So here's the deal modders and forum members....
Tried a couple of custom kernels to get my Sola rooted but every kernel had some or the other issue..
So here's what I did to keep the root and to solve the issues...
1) Fastbooted with custom kernel to get rooted
2) Flashed with stock firmware. Tft file (only ticked kernel nothing else) so that's the stock kernel of my firmware.
OK, let me say first of all, I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place and I'm sorry that this has probably been discussed a hundred times.
I haven't rooted/flashed/etc since my EVO.
I got the DNA about a month ago but when getting it Verizon did the update for me.. while "showing me the ropes".. even though I easily know more, but anyhow I'm stick with it. But it seems like I have to unlock the bootloader to get the recovery to root to flash Rom. But I'm unsuccessful even getting the bootloader unlocked for this ota for this phone.
Okay so I just picked this phone up... totally reminding me why i dumped my last motorola.
anyways, i rooted it, sim unlocked it, unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM and then flashed a 4.2.2 rom. wow, slow, buggy, lets go back to stock. loaded the 4.1.1 RSD file, edited the XML, then flashed... gets to flashing system then fails. WHY!? any ideas?
