GOt it going.... thank u sooo much.... the recovery part was the confusing bit... u r life saver ) first experience with all this!

And on another note - this stupid bricking bug in ROM manager was supposed to be fixed a couple of days ago. Have you installed the latest version of this (from Market) and chosen correct model from the menu when flashing the recovery?

( flash the recovery of the rom u want and then flash the rom)
Please do some reading. I have been typing the same reply for past many days !!!!
done that already doesnt work...ive been through 1.7.1 it was ok but still FC's 1.8.1 FC city. alot of restarts. 1.9.0 hangs up wit dell logo sometimes, freezes when data connection is turned on while restarting i have to restart 100 times....no real game play without freezing...i just wanna use this for games as well without the freezing....
I've just gone back to stock exactly because of these issues, I downloaded the QDL tool (guides and downloads here) and used this to flash 2.2 stock. It seems fine so far!
i tried the qdl tool and it puts 305 back on my streak but i cant update anyfurther past that what do u sudjest
Sure you can. Get the download for the 309 or 318 update package and load it on your streak's sd card named update.pkg then go into recovery and manually flash it.
Can't get into recovery menu for some reason
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA Premium App
What happens when you hold both volume buttons down and power on the device while keeping the volume buttons held down? anything different than normal booting up? You can download the recovery files in the wiki and try manually flashing the recovery then manually flashing one of the stock roms.
If you used QDL to get to 305 you should be able to use the url for 318 to just download and install it:
http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A121100
Use that url in your android browser and go through the update. It will download build 318 which is the latest OTA update released from Dell for unlocked baseband (which if you used QDL you are now on)

the only other time ive had to flash a recovery was the first time i got my phone and the instructions stated to use the following command
Code:
fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
so do i do it the same way? do i need to specify where in memory or can i take that part out?
That's the correct command to use. just like you typed it

[Q] Live With Walkman Kernel Flash Problem

Hi Guys
A strange thing is happening to my wt19.
Here is the deal,I flash the kernel and everything goes fine except when i reboot for the second time the phone, the kernel revert back to the old version (2.6.3.9-perf [email protected] #1 ).
I tried various kernels and reflashed them many times and is always the same thing!
Anyone have any thougth about what is happening?
yeah i am also having the same problem with live with walkman . DO u know wat should be shown there instead of the 2.6.3.9-perf [email protected] #1
and wat will be the build if the flash is successful
someone reply man
hello does anybody know solution for this
You guys are not flashing it properly!
Mine works perfectly...
maybe you guys are not flashing it properly...
Steps for flashing kernel:
1.) Open flashtool (always use the latest version)
2.) Click on the bolt symbol...check the second radio button(second option) fastboot mode. Click Ok.
3.) *IMPORTANT* Click Reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB) *IMPORTANT* (Its on the left side)
4.) Wait for it to go into fastboot mode..the phone led should be blue..
Now, On the right side...click Select Kernel to Flash...and browse & select the boot.img file..
5.) After the log window shows that flashing successful..
click Reboot device into system..
Now check if its the kernel u wanted...
I flash kernels every week...most of the different ROMs have different kernels..but almost all are based on Rage..
P.S: use Rage kernel...best for WT19i...
here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398910
Don't forget to hit thanks if i helped!
Are you guys sure you dont use hotboot?
Because if using hotboot kernel is loaded to RAM and removed on next boot.

Which recovery are you trying to install?
The best experience will be to flash Romracer's recovery through fastboot. If you are unlocked and follow the instructions, you should not have a problem.

Taken from tayshun12's great guide here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423 .
My suggestion is in red. If you are already correcting the name then sorry and good luck.
Proper Recovery:
1. After your bootloader unlocked go to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
2. Scroll down to where it says "ALL USERS" and download your favourite colour. (NOT THE ZIP VERSION) Rename the file to recovery-atrix5.img instead of recovery-some-color-atrix5Place it in the motounlock folder that you have on your desktop.
3. Press the windows key + R on your computer, type cmd and press enter
4. A Command prompt will open. type cd C:\users\YOURNAME\desktop\motounlock press 'enter'
5. type "fastboot devices" Press Enter.
5b. type "fastboot erase recovery" Press Enter.
5c. type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-atrix5.img" Press Enter. Be certain that you have renamed the file to recovery-atrix5.img instead of recovery-some-color-atrix5
Wait for the command prompt to say : "writing 'recovery'... OKAY ['The amount of seconds it took here']"
5d.type "fastboot reboot"
DO NOT FORGET TO DO THIS PART: After the install of RomRacers recovery boot up your phone. Open up your favourite file browser (I used Astro file manager to do this ) and navigate to /system/etc/ and delete the file called 'install-recovery.sh'
You will be set 100% !

problem flashing recovery
I had a similar problem flashing recovery with fastboot method. It would flash the recovery successfully in seconds, but it would not load recovery properly. It didn't matter if i tried to enter it from key combination or Rom Manager the phone would just load the recovery image and not the recovery options.
I was somewhat successful with the procedure found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423 sticky by Tayshun12. flashed latest clockwork mod touch recovery 5.8.1.8 by following procedure at the end of the first post. Delete install-recovery.sh from both locations,(don't forget to backup file first) it is the same file in both locations. Install Rom Manager from Google play after removing files. Flashed touch recovery with the option in rom manager (paid versions of rom manager and touch through play store) after that the recovery works perfectly. I didn't mind having to pay for them to work properly. Good luck, pm me if you need to and I will try to help.

It should have taken only seconds to install. In the command you have to type the name of the recovery your installing. I personally use touch recovery on the atrix. But you have to check the name of the file, it has to be the same name as your command. I suggest you read the instructions carefully again, there should not be any problems.
i can read i tried it on my atrix and it didnt't its a t-mobile uk so am confused

[XT615][Motoluxe] Can't root. Can't flash.

Virgin Mobile Canada.
I'm trying to flash a compatible firmware so I can use Temp CWM or even root to flash CWM.
It's near impossible to root this thing on it's default firmware and no firmwares will flash other than the original. I get a SEC AUTH ERROR. I've tried everything. 32/64 windows. I've done the steps. SUT LR. Tried nearly every version of SuperOneClick. Tried psneuter, gingerbreak, zergrush. Nothing works. And yes, USB dev is enabled.
Anybody know if the Virgin Mobile Motoluxe is different than the others?
Does anybody else have this phone?

Hi Guys !!!
I'm happy to have found you ... because I have EXACTLY the same problem !
I own a phone from Virgin Mobile... a motoluxe XT615.
I have unlocked it lately ... it work very well on other provider.
I wish to use the phone on Petro-Canada network, which have unlimited data for browsing at 8$ per month.
However, actually, if you go over 2 Gb, they might shut down your account...
Unfortunately, to be able to use proxy (autoproxy) to make all my apps on the phone working with the Petro-Canada data proxy, I need to root the phone !
Here is what I've tried :
I have tried the SuperOneClick without success... I have tried manual rooting ( using adb shell on terminal ) .. I have tried with Windows 7 and I have tried on Ubuntu ... both failed. I have tried to flash the phone firmware with version IRM-152A-0-4034-A01_BFM ... thus resulted to an unusable phone ! ... the application actually crashed (May try it again!) ...
I have tried to flash it with firmware version IRM-1670-0-4073-A02_BFM_service provided by a website that stated that this firmware is already rooted (in order to install Jelly Beam) ... but ... it resulted in having a non-bootable phone at all...
So I had to flash it back with firmware IRM-174F-0-1022-A01_BFM ... and then I got a blue screen ... (after 4 min waiting) . Then I rebooted and was able to use the phone as before ( well, I had to put back all my settings )...
So far, I've tried the gingerbreak (installed on the phone as an APK) ... I have tried psneuter ... and I have tried superoneclick ... and tried some firmware. I can't get this phone rooted at all !!!
HELP!
If anyone know of a firmware that may work on this phone, I'd be happy to try it ! If the firmware provided is already rooted, then good !
I'll be monitoring this thread to see your own progress...
Thanks !

May I ask why you want to relock your bootloader?
If your phone is not charging, it's probably because your Recovery is not the latest to date.

You should flash a Recovery known working on charging mode, the first releases were lacking this mode, but this is resolved now. Click on Frequently Asked Questions in my signature everything is there for you to find about HOX+ and their recoveries.

TWRP is more complete and a rigourously tested recovery. CWM was modded to work on the HOX+.
First make sure your SDK tool (adb) is correctly installed and also the HTC's drivers. (There is a link for a tutorial in my signature.)
Download the correspondent recovery for your phone International OR AT&T/Telus (N.B. Links are available in the Sticky FAQ)
Flash the Recovery.
Clear Cache
Reboot in Recovery
Install your correspondent version of any ROM.zip you want that is already on your storage. (Otherwise,Sideload a ROM to be able to flash one inRecovery)
Flash the boot.img of your desired ROM
Clear Cache Again
Reboot
Should work

I tried to be polite (anyway I am not allowed to talk like that, I never developed any sort of app, neither a ROM or kernel so I am not very qualified to judge others work), I'm sure you understood what I meant.
And yes I agree everything is way more complicated and unstable with CWM.
Please help. I'm having same problem. I can get into bootloader and fastboot and even successfully installed recovery but I can't get into recovery bc I always go to that white htc screen and no idea what to do next.

Reboot your phone in Bootloader mode (fastboot) you should have this 4 choices :
HBOOT
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
leave HBOOT highlighted then press the power button once, a new menu will appear :
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
SHOW BARCODE
IMAGE CRC
From there with the Volume control (up & down) simply select RECOVERY and press Power button one time, your phone should Reboot in Recovery mode.
When in Recovery mode the VERY FIRST thing you will do, is a complete backup of your actual ROM and you will keep it as long as you gonna own the phone, so put this backup in a safe place on your computer and make sure to never delete it.
Thank you but the thing is.. I put twrp on it and version 2.3.3.0 and it won't boot in it. Any ideas why? Then I looked for a more recent recovery and I wasn't sure if this is evita?? So, basically I'm still unable to get into recovery and it goes to that htc white screen.

Navigate to platform-tools of your SDK folder.
Right click and create a New text document
In the new text paste this : c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe
Save it with this name : StartADB.bat (important to save it with .bat extension and overwrite the warning)
Now right click again on your new bat file, and create a shortcut to your desktop.
Now try to adb devices your phone via your new desktop shortcut.
Type this command with your phone plugged : adb devices
