[Solved]For God's Sake - Help Me! - Streak 5 Android Development

Geezus.... I've rooted Android a bunch of times on many phones but cannot get this damn Dell Streak to cooperate.
I have installed SuperBoot
I have flashed ClockWorkMod Recovery v1.8.1.7
However, whenever I open ClockWorkMod I get an error:
E:Can't find MISC:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If I try to Nandroid or install an update I get the above error as well as:
E:Can't mount /sdcard
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Additionally, If I put the unit into FastBoot mode, then open a command prompt and try to execute a fastboot command, it says 'fastboot' is not a recognized command.
I have Dell PC Suite installed and functioning and in Device Manager can see Android Phone with ADB driver installed.
Can someone get me going please?!!!

If you're just looking to root than use universal Androot from the first pinned post in the forum.

i'm already rooted... i'm looking to be able to update to 2.1 or a working recovery without errors.

I like many others have found that removing the clockwork application entirely from 1.6 allows you to easily put the update.pkg from either the leaked or stock 2.1 on your sd and update. There are many guides over at Modaco that helped me achieve that.

Also check to see if your miniSD is mounted on the phone. Mine is sometimes tempermental where i have to adjust the position of the card on the phone for it to be read. I am contemplating having mine replaced for this ...

Well, not sure why it worked now and not before but these steps (which are widely published) and I tried them before, worked.
1. Install Fastboot
2. Leave stock recovery on phone (important for me, ymmv)
3. update to O2 1.6 v4399
4. update to official build 8105 Android 2.1
Thanks for the assistance.

This is either because you've not navigated to the folder where your fastboot application is OR because your fastboot application is not called fastboot.exe, it is probably called fastboot-windows.exe , rename it to fastboot.exe

Ah, a bit late to the party lol

sdcard mount problem, recovery problem

fairly new to rooting, so sorry if the fix is simple (hoping it is). i have a evo 4g lte, rooted it, been having issues flashing cm10, so i would reflash a previously saved working rom, no problems. i have been using twrp for recovery. so i switched to cwmr (HUGE MISTAKE)to try and see if that would somehow fix why everytime i was flashing cm10 my phone would never load past the loading screen ( android in middle of revolving circle). basically my problem is, in recovery i cant mount ext-sd or the internal sd, i can "see" my saved backups, but cant flash them, when i try it says" no files found" i played with things for a while, somehow got some old downloaded cm10 version to work, so i atleast have a working phone, but cant mount my sdcard under storage which i need done to flash twrp back into my phone. ive been reading on how to use termianl emulator to mount sd card, but cant figuer that out, any help would be muchly appreciated, sorry for long description of my issue, i just want to be able to flash twrp, reboot into recovery and restore back to a previously working rom!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!
also... cm update is constantly running, cant stop it, my pc doesnt recognize my phone, cant mount in recovery or in settings. tried copy and pasting the saved zip files using a root browser app to relocate them and trying to reboot into recovery and flashing them, that does work... please help!!!!
If you can get into terminal emulator, then just flash twrp using that. The directions are on their website.

too late, i kept playing around with everything in recovery mode, and apprently made things worse, now the phone will recognize my ext sd and not the internal sd, which is what u need to use terminal emulator to reflash twrp, any other suggestions???
You can update recovery image through fastboot or place the twrp update zip (rename PJ75IMG.zip) on external and boot to bootloader. As for internal being corrupt, boot into twrp and mount as USB storage and format through pc

ADB Tools Mini SDK
Extract this and then open the folder and hold shift+select and right click. In the menu select open command window here. Put your phone in fastboot and connect to pc. Type fastboot devices to make sure its connected. Then type fastboot flash recovery "filename.img" filename being what ever the name of the recovery file is. It should write recovery and then you can boot into twrp

[Q] Please help this noob! (flashing custom recovery)

Okay, here we go. I am new to rooting and I have already unlocked the bootloader on my device (HTC Evo 4G LTE). It still has S-on. After I unlocked my bootloader, I continued on to flash TWRP Recvovery onto my phone using fastboot. My phone does not have an SD card. However, no matter how many times I download the newest version of TWRP or rename the file or change the directory in the command prompt...it says "error: cannot load recovery image". When I attempt to restart in recovery mode, I get this red triangle with an explanation point! I have tried over and over again, but since I cant flash this recovery, i have an unlocked bootloader for practically no reason. I need to get past this step in order to start flashing custom ROM's. I even used RegawMOD EVO 4G LTE Rooter. After i click "Root Me" it puts my device into fastboot and attempts to submit the unlock token to HTCDev.com even though I already did that! I am stuck :crying:
Go here and download the recovery to your ADB tools folder.
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/jewel/openrecovery-twrp-2.3.3.0-jewel.img
You can rename the file "twrp" without the quotation marks. Make sure the file doesn't have an extra img extension or it won't work. Once you do this reboot your phone to the bootloader. Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable. You should see the word Fastboot in red highlights change to Fastboot USB. Open up ADB and type "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" (without quotation marks) then press enter. At this point TWRP recovery should be installed on your phone.
If these are the steps you have followed, disregard.
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much
Thank You for Replying Good Sir!
1)when i download any twrp file and try to open it on my computer, it says "the disc image file is corrupted"
2)when i attempt to open ADB , it flashes up then off. I cant read what it says
3)i entered the command in the command prompt and it just says waiting for device

Download this extract it to your desktop and run your commands from that folder by pressing shift and right clicking on an empty spot inside the folder and choose open cmd window here.
There is a readme.txt inside follow the instructions on how to fastboot flash twrp (Copy and paste is the easiest way to do this that way there are no typo's)
Use v2.4.1.0 if you are on the latest OTA
Use v2.3.1.0 otherwise
idk whats wrong!!
I did exactly as you said, yet the command prompt just says waiting for device. I'm not sure what to do anymore because regardless of following these instructions, I CANT FLASH TWRP RECOVERY TO MY PHONE. I believe the problem is with my phone but Im running out of options. its beginning to look like I unlocked my bootloader for nothing :/

[Q] No android-info.txt & android-product.txt ~I Need Help~

Hey everyone,
This is my first time posting to the forums. I have been trying to get everything done without having to ask questions since there are so many all over the place and I can see how it can get tiring trying to help everyone when their may be an answer out there already if you look. However, I have ran into an issue that I can't seem to find much information on. I have the HTC Rezound that is S-On (apparently you need a Linux machine to get S-Off which I don't have. Using Windows 7.) and have been using fastboot to get things done. I have unlocked the bootloader and have installed the 'Amon Ra' recovery and setup Superuser and SU. As far as I know, I have to use ROM's that are S-On friendly (right?) and I chose to try out 'EclipticRez' and later 'Talon'.
As I tried to flash the ROM's through fastboot it fails with the following errors every time and I cannot continue:
archive does not contain android-info.txt
archive does not contain android-product.txt
From what I found is that it may be a bad download of the ROM. Maybe.... But it happened consecutively with two different ROM downloads.
I also read that maybe the recovery wasn't setup, which as far as I know it is. Should I use a different recovery? Everyone usually references to using CWM, which I wouldn't mind using but I couldn't figure out how to get SU access.
Can I just create the files myself? They are only txt files after all.
If anyone can help me with this I will be so grateful! I'm pretty new to this and it has definitely been a fun learning experience for me
Much thanks in advance!

1) Switch to TWRP or CWM for your recovery.
2) You install the rom zip via recovery.
3) You then need to fastboot flash the kernel from the rom zip you downloaded. You don't install the whole rom via fastboot.
To borrow from the CM11 thread.
- Place the boot.img into the platform-tools folder of the Android SDK's install directory.
- Boot to the bootloader.
- Ensure your device is connected to your computer and that your device is now in fastboot mode. This is a white screen and it says fastboot on it.
- Open a Terminal (OSX or Linux) or CMD window (Windows) and cd to the platform-tools directory of the Android SDK's install directory.
- Issue this command to flash the boot.img we placed in the platform-tools folder earlier:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
- Watch the output of the terminal, it should say something like "sent successfully".
- Finally send this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Since you're s-on, you'll need to do this whenever you install a new rom. Using these steps, you can install any rom you want.

also to note....you dont have to install linux to get s-off....if you follow my guide you can do it straight from a live disk rather than installing it....so it wont erase or mess up your windows partition at all
Solved!
Thank you, Mjones, I finally got it! I knew it was much easier than I was making it out to be. I was missing the kernel! Yeah, a crucial part in the process, I know
I first ran CWM and flashed the ROM over and ran the .zip through recovery (which I couldn't understand at first as I could never find it in the directory) but the installer would only go 50% and would fail... makes sense why now lol
I later flashed TWRP and backed up again after recovering from the fail. I flashed over the kernel and voila! So simple... Had to slap myself.
Thanks again! Case solved.
REV3NT3CH, that is sweet!! I have been hoping there is a way to gain s-off with Windows. I have 7 at work and 8.1 (which I can't get anything to work on) at home. I actually have to focus on work today haha so I'll look into the method and try it out tomorrow if I can. Thanks for all of the help.

Did you try this first? (Right from Moto's site)
Perform a factory reset using external keys
1. Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button, press power button
2. Screen will come up with "Fastboot", press Vol down key to cycle through choices until you get "Android Recovery", then press Vol up key
3. Wait for the "triangle ! / Android" screen then go on to step 4
4. Press both Vol up and Vol down key simultaneously. A menu will come up
5. Tap on Vol down key until "wipe data/factory reset" is highlighted, and tap Power key. Another Confirmation screen will come. Tap on Vol down key until coming to Yes and tap Power key
6. After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by Default. Tap Power key
7. Phone will reboot to initial setup screen.

Qualcomm is harder to flash than MTK that can use SP FlashTool.
on this I use QFIL but keeps "sahara error". I tried searching and try moving firmware file to bin but no Luck. I'm currently trying different version of QFIL Tool.
If it FAILS my only HOPE is to use MUT-QCfire which will Require a "SmartCardReader" Which is a bit pricey and I don't even know if it will work on my device.

Error closed on ADB sideload. Device not found on Fastboot. HALP!!!!!

Alright lads, I got a major issue that is kicking my ass. I need your help please.
Basically the HTC ONE X+ keeps getting error closed in ADB sideload whenever I try to sideload a rom or do anything else for the matter.
adb usb = Error Closed
Adb push and pull = Error Closed.
I can get my device listed but thats about it.
The Issue goes further. I relocked the bootloader in order to install the RUU. Yet I get the error 131 custormer ID error.
I can't access the SD partition on the my computer screen as it doesn't show.
I can't get back to stock rom.
I can't install a new rom.
I can unlock and relock my bootloader.
I can install TWRP and CWM.
I can use fastboot usb. [Very limited]
The issue with fastboot usb is that it keeps saying error device not found and then it refuses to do anything.
I have installed and reinstalled the ADB drivers, SDK manager and htc sync manager.
The biggest issue at the moment is that I can't install any rom whatsoever.
Which basically means, its a potato.
HALLLLP. The htc one x is a international version. UK Vodafone more specifically. Hboot-1.35.0000
Oh yeah, the mount does not work in TWRP and CWM.
I tried different USB ports, cables and even a different computer.
Everything has been wiped. I factory reset it and wiped out other parts in TWRP and CWM in an effort to start from scratch.
Nothing seems to work though...
Edit: I narrowed down the issue
It seems that i can't flash boot.img when my bootloader is unlocked as:
'boot.img'...FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))
therefore I can't load roms without it crashing on me.
I can however put things into the 'sd card' by loading a broken rom [crashes to process android]. But thats about it. so far.
Oh I also updated the hboot to 1.72

If you can push files on sd card, use the TWRP back-up from here to restore to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2414238
You'll at least get it working again.
Thanks, somehow when I updated the bootloader, the boot.img restriction got lifted after I just entered the command again when 'unknown failure' came up. I was at this point able to access the sd card under a buggy rom start-up.I used TWRP to flash a new rom.
Fixed.

To anyone in the same situation adb sideload does not transfer the file to the sdcard permanently. To sideload correctly, you need to pick that option from the recovery first and then when the phone is waiting for the sideload type:
adb sideload <PACKAGE>

To anyone in the same situation adb sideload does not transfer the file to the sdcard permanently. To sideload correctly, you need to pick that option from the recovery first and then when the phone is waiting for the sideload type:
adb sideload <PACKAGE>

Can you see your phone connected?
adb devices
Or
adb usb
If you're able then in sideload
Go to command prompt on your computer and type
adb sideload (and the file you want to upload)
adb sideload file.zip

So now! I could get my devices connected and listed with updating the drivers (Win 8.1) ...
Then I could push the SuperSU.zip and install it... Is there any way to check if it's ready for flashing a ROM?

Im not sure if this will answer your question:
When you upload your rom using sideload will automatically flash it to your device

If you can get into the recovery and have a valid backup then in that case restore it and restart the process. Else you can boot into fastboot and flash the desired boot.img the process will be
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

Well you do need to have the Android SDK tools download but if you select the "Platform Tools" at the SDK manager , that will only install the platform tools on your hard disk. and yes the device drivers needs to installed , to work with ADB ,
Any ways this tutorial by LUCKY_THIRTEEN just might help you

I cant install sdk and use adb... I resume: Dowloaded sdk from the page, and when i start sdk manager "Platform Tools" cant update i got this error: Stopping adb server succeeded. Failed to rename directory C:\adt.bundle.windows-x86-20131030\sdk\platform-tools to C:\adt.bundle.windows-x86-20131030\sdk\temp\PlatformToolPackage.old01. Nothing was installed"
I dont know if sdk was installed or what. only have the folder in C:
I put the boot.img file in platform-tools and tried to flash the image using the command fastboot flash boot boot.img but tells me the boot.img arrchivo not be found.
The phone does not recognize the pc, the bootloader is relocked.
Thanks for your support bro, I would like resolve this as soon as possible.

Well it seems you have installed the Android SDK all right. and make sure you put the file in the platform tools folder, and also make sure you have installed the HTC drivers for your PC to detect your phone , you can also try uninstall the driver and re install

Ready, installed the HTC Sync Manager, and same result. "Device not Found"
if only I could get the phone to be recognized by the pc, I think it could solve the problem.

The phone is not recognized by the pc.
I can not get into recovery because the bootloader is relocked. I can only enter fastboot, but when executing commands, either with adb, All in One Toolkit, Flasher Venom or the phone is not recognized "Error: Device not found"
I have the drivers installed, htc sync manager, and I'm afraid that this phone unusable ... Also I did have a backup but on PC, but if the phone is not recognized I can not run any command ...
Also, I was trying to run teh Stock RUU:
RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299688_signed
But When I run the. Exe signature throws an error (132) "find the correct signature and try again" and which is not correct. had sense 5 and 4.2.2 HTC One X + International.
Help please ... : (
same issue, cannot access recovery fastboot only
I hope this adds to this post if I miss speak I apologize in advance but I do not have the time or knowledge to post 10 times before strating my own thread so if this doesn't add value to this post, I have been reading and researching all week and now that I cannot use my phone I must intensely focus on this until it is fixed
Fed up with 4.3 and lower limitations and looking to get my monies worth on my phone, I look to upgrade to 4.3.1 or higher just started this week so I am a total newb, and if it means anything to anyone I would be happy to donate to contributors via papal once a solution is found I am a working professional and I am happy to pay you to save my time/phone
with that said here is what I have done
HTC One X+ (AT&T US) Quad Core Tegra 3
OTA upgraded 4.2.2 Android Firmware 2.15
Unlocked BL via HTCDev
Was using;
Recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.7-enrc2b.img
With intent to upgrade to 4.3.1
Used the following Rom and GAPPS to load .zips via CWM
cm-10.2.1-enrc2b (stable)
gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip
Did not work
Tried more recent gapps
Did not work got stuck on Circling Cyanogenmod screen
//goo.gl/YzZ75o
THEN
I realized I was not flashing boot.img taken from the CM 10.2.1 zip so I followed directions to use the boot.img then load the zip files, since doing this I can no longer use my recovery
Erase Cache (from fastboot)
COMMANDs:
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
Results:
White HTC “Quietly Brilliant” Screen for a few seconds then turns off
Plug in charger and Red light turns on grey empty battery symbol appears with a lightning bolt inside then disappears
red light turns off :-/
//goo.gl/JrBJph
Current state: I can fastboot, but I cannot load recovery
//goo.gl/43F6XT
Also, if I can get back into recovery
The last time I was in it, last night I believe I reformatted my internal SD, because when I was looking for my backup, and my zips they were all gone...I was very tired and should haven't pushed it.
I don't care about loss of data I just need to get my phone working again, thanks for your time and careful considerations
UPDATE+++
Used WinDroid HTC One X+ Toolkit 3 to flash custom recovery CWM 6.0.3.7 back in recovery again, now I think I need to side load a ROM because I deleted what I had internally

Ok, from what I can tell I think I have to go with this?
[ROM][2/18/2014][AT&T X+ S5 eXtreme V1.0.3.3]
I will be very happy if I can get this to work, and I will just "stay tuned" for when I can flash a stable 4.3 or higher for my phone
Under downloads I see the following: (would post picture but still too n00b)
S6 eXtreme RC1
S5 RC2 Patch
Native WiFi
Hotspot Patch
S5 eXtreme
V1.0.3.2
S5 eXtreme
V1.0.3.3
I am not sure what to download here, I will continue reading these directions as I believe this is my best option, please confirm if I am on the right path, thanks guys!
Update+++
Downloaded S5_eXtreme_V1.0.3.3_Signed.zip
about to flash this ROM, is GAPPS included in this?
Update+++
Downloaded S5_eXtreme_V1.0.3.3_Signed.zip Rom
Extracted the boot.img file and followed instructions
Extract boot.img from zip file and place in your sdk platform tools folder, (or wherever your adb tools are located)reboot device to bootloader and connect it to your PC.
From a command prompt type:
1. fastboot flash boot boot.img
2. fastboot erase cache
reboot to recovery and flash ROM.
but I am not sure how I flashed the ROM, I tried sideloading from recovery with WinDroid HTC One X+ Toolkit, before and after and it said no package loaded
Then I tried to load from fastboot, finally I figured "well I might as well reboot" and amazingly enough it booted...not sure what exactly but I am back on 4.2.2 so thank you!
