RSDLite 5.3.1 Won't Install - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't install RSD Lite 5.3.1.
I'm running Windows 7 x64, and I have downloaded RSD 5.3.1 from 3 or 4 separate download sites to make sure it just wasn't a bad package.
The error that I am getting is attached, it's error 2738, and yes, I have googled; it doesn't seem like anyone has had this issue of not being able to install RSD.
I have rebooted my laptop a few times, and I was able to install RSDLite 5.0 with no problems.

Maybe drivers ? try ...

Thanks for replying.
I installed the drivers and everything again. For some reason it just won't install on my machine. I was able to unlock my bootloader using a Vista machine in like 20 minutes, 5.3.1 installed immediately.

Im having the same issue on my Vista CPU and the same exact code... 5.0 installed fine but I need 5.3.1 since i updated my phone to 2.3.4 if anyone can help that would be great. As of right now Im stock and dont know what to do...

I dont know about windows 7 but I was able to fix this same issue/error on vista.
run cmd as an admin and copy and paste these individually and hit enter after each.
reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f
reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{F414C260-6AC0-11CF-B6D1-00AA00BBBB58}" /f
Let me know if it works!

RSD Lite Win 7 x64 Fix
Since RSD Lite no longer comes with an EXE and therefore installing in compatibilty mode is not longer an option, I spent some time researching and banging my head against my desk in frustration that it wouldn't install. In a past job, I was a Windows Developer. When RSD Lite installs and reaches the error, it is in the Commit Stage - Therefore, all the installation (save for the creation of icons and other post-installation scripts) has been done.
All this to say, when you see the Error 2738, Don't click "OK" right away. Navigate to the installation directory, Copy all the files and paste them to a different directory in the Program Files (x86) directory. Then click OK.
Create a shortcut to the SDL.exe file (on your desktop, start menu, wherever you like) and edit the compatibility of the shortcut to always run as administrator.
Double-click your new shortcut et voilà! RSD Lite actually works on Windows 7 when it previously did not.
I have done and tested with RSD Lite 5.6 and 5.7

Interesting. I wonder why this is happening to some folks? I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64, and every version of RSD lite has always installed flawlessly for me.
Good looking out jduke882 - But, in researching Error 2738 I found that it has to deal with not being able to access VBScript run time for custom action. So, all the folks that cannot install RSD Lite - is your VBScript runtime working?
More info here: http://www.jakeludington.com/window...cess_vbscript_run_time_for_custom_action.html
And M$ even created a HotFix for it, see http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...time-for/1a4499ae-8bc1-4534-9c6f-4d399ac70d9a
FWIW: Those of you on x64 OSs could not use the fix posted by supermerkin b/c that was 32bit specific. The command to be entered is as follows:
Code:
reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f
The 64bit machines need that Wow6432Node path inserted in order to delete the correct key.
Also, as noted in the first link, re-registering the vbscript.dll to the system is also needed:
Code:
c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32 vbscript.dll
.
For people with custom Windows installations (i.e. not C this command will always work, regardless of where windows is installed:
Code:
%windir%\syswow64\regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Forgive me if I misunderstood your intent with that statement, but...
That kind of elitist attitude will only ensure the ultimate demise of what you love. THE community.
You were a n00b once.
Too many noobs in my mind means too many people who don't know what they are doing, or more importantly WHY they are doing it.
While I am relatively new to the android scene, I am certainly not new to *nix, and so I think it is important to understand what you are doing when you customize what is essentially a linux computer with a Java-Based applications platform, and GUI.
It is important to READ before you just go foraging ahead, and this tool makes it much easier for someone who doesn't know what they are doing to do something wrong.
@windows user:
it is using microsoft net framework, so you must install one (download free from microsoft.com) to run application.
@author:
I think this is good idea for whom doesnt how to use adb, or hasnt got enough time to understand adb tool.
Please make it better.

Has anyone had an error message:
"Droid Explorer has stopped working
Windows is checking for a solution to this problem..."
I have Windows 7 Home premium x64 with microsoft .NET 4.0 framework. I tried the x64 and x86 versions, get the same error message with both.
Edit: I installed the beta 0.8.7.2 and it seems to be working fine so far.
Edit Edit: I am having a hell of a time getting it to recognize my phone. I'm using a Windows 7 x64 box, Motorola Droid, I have busybox installed, my drivers are all up to date, .NET 4.0 framework, USB Debugging ticked. Is there anything else I have overlooked?

I have used this method couple of times and I confirm it working on XP except you can not run emulator, that is not required in our case either I guess.
The problem is that I still could not unlock WP7. It stucks at Chevron unlocker stage. The same problem has been reported by almost all users here. I haven't witnessed anyone unlocking WP7 through WIndows XP machine.

I finally got it to install on XP!
Here's what I did,
Download the .iso file (it's at the bottom of the page) :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=04704acf-a63a-4f97-952c-8b51b34b00ce
After, make a new folder on your desktop and extract the ".iso" file into the folder.
Next, I grabbed the ".zip" file from here, : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9618980&postcount=81
Take the baseline.dat from the .zip file and replace it in the one with the extracted .iso files. Then just run setup.exe from the file. It should work! But make sure you have about 3 gb free from your hard drive. And emulator doesn't work, but I'm sure its fine if your not a developer.
Remember to hit the thanks button if it worked for you!

And with the same result too. Chevron opens but gives error.
i couldnt get chevron to work either on xp. i finally broke down and reloaded my vista and got it working. took me over two days to install vista and all the updates and service packs. i got an old slow computer.
How can install on Window7?
Excusme for my bad english
does the chevron executable even work on XP ?
u wouldnt want to use the SDK on XP if chevron doesnt
Soo?? Somebody got it working or what?

SDK is useful in a sense that it atleast makes Chevron open on a XP machine. Without SDK, you can not even open Chevron.
But once you click unlock in Chevron, it always gives you error whatever you do.
I personally had to install WIndows 7 Ultimate on my laptop and then the whole process was like of 20 minutes hardly. No problems faced. The tutorials posted are fantastic and makes your life easy.
Exploring unlocked and activated WP7 on HD2
So we have to purchase Windows 7 and delete everything?
I do not have money to do this...I hope the devs find a way.
I LOVE windows phone even in the sad state mine is in. I have a Zune HD, and I haven't used it since WP7 came onto my HD2...If I could access the marketplace, I'd love it...guess I'll have to download it (windows 7) tonight...
i had the chevron unlocker working with XP SP3. I'll try it again in a bit to verify it again. will let you all know.
I checked and double checked. My phone was already unlocked, so i performed a Re-lock.
Ofcourse, I couldn't get it unlocked again under XP. Having probs now as well with Win7. Scratching my head now. lol

Emulator will never work on XP nor its required for you as you are willing to deploy things on actual device i.e. your HD2. In short, forget emulator.
For DotNet 4 issue, try installing it seperately.
great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I am reading this right, having the SDK installed on XP is beneficial regardless if Chevron works or not. This is how I see the events playing out:
Use a Wiindows 7 Machine to do the unlocking process with Chevron
Use the XP machine to do the side-loading of applications.
Once the Chevron process is complete, there should be no need for a Windows 7 based machine, as the app loading will work fine from XP.
Am I correct with how I laid that out? I ask because my main workstation is an XP machine. I have 2 Windows 7 machines (my HTPC and my laptop are both Win7); the HTPC is buried under/behind the TV and does not have easily accessible USB ports, and the laptop has a small (17") screen and I can barely see what I am doing on it, which makes it a non-feasible option.
Now, if I were to use the laptop for a few minutes to do the unlocking with Chevron, I should (in theory) be able to perform all of the other options on my XP machine...I hop I am correct with that assumption, as it will be the best way for me to go about it.

Try installing it again, just copy the link from that window to your browser and install it, it should resolve your issue.
I had the same problem.
Don't use the given link. Instead search for the program on the Microsoft site and install it.
Do you have a x64 or x32 system?

If you look closely its asking you to install different versions each time. SO run the instakker and it will ask you to download something else, do it and repeat the install process and it will ask to install something again. Just keep doing this till it has everything installed that it needs. It is a silly install process but does work.

you don't need to uninstall all the stuff.
the most important thing is to deactivate the UAC (user account control).
and then install vc++ 2005 sp1 --> vc++ 2010 sp1.
I had the same problem.
What worked for me is i extracted the .msi with 7-zip. Go in the extracted folder and there will be a file called 'vcredist_x86_2010.exe', run that and it will install the visual c++ its whining about
thx for youre help but i finally managed to install NCS.
first i was tryieng to install the latest version of Nokia_Care_Suite_5.0_2012.12.5.3 and with this version I couldn`t get past the vcredist_x86_2005_sp1 screen but then i downloaded this version Nokia_Care_Suite_5.0_2012.5.5.5 and it work and works great. I don`t now why I cant install the latest version...thx for all youre replies
Hi, i had a same problem with you too, after install vc2005 sp1. I cannot install NCS from Total Commander . But when i try run install from Windows explorer, it work perfectly LOL

Similar rubbish here, kept asking for 2005 + 2010 when I ran the installer from Firefox downloads window, running it straight from Explorer downloads folder solved the issue.
thats just a crap same here windows explorer worked for the first time.
I'm having the same issue. Any time I try to install any of the VC++ it tells me I have a newer version already installed, but the Nokia suite is still asking me for it.

ACMEUninstaller not working :/

Hi everyone,
So my TP is getting picked up sometime in the next 7 days for repairs (cracks and all) and I need to remove android. Couldn't find the novacom drivers online, and universal installer isn't working atm, so I got the SDK and now Device Manager (Windows 7) shows it as Palm Novacom (bootie). [Also, just noticed there is another "Unknown device" as well as the "Palm Novacom bootie" ?!?]
The problem is that when I tried to run the "novacom boot mem:// < ACMEUninstaller" command, nothing happens. I tried redownloading ACME, but still the same error. Anyone know what's up or how I can fix this.
Thanks in advance!

If u have a command window open inthe Palm, Inc directory where novacom application is and u type "novacom" u should at least
see a list of commands.
If not then u arent in the right place.

It's in Recovery Mode (with the USB sign on the black screen); sorry that's what I meant. I'm thinking it could be a problem with the drivers, but Windows recognises it
Never used the sdk but if its like android then the novacom application will be in a folder in the sdk.
so u will have to run the acmeuninstaller fron a window in that folder.

Have you tried following the instructions in THIS THREAD ? It talks about how to completely remove everything and put the TP back to factory 3.0.0 settings.
Nope, but thanks for the link. Unfortunately the novaterm link is down and the Universal Novacom Installer always gets stuck on initialising
Edit: I'm trying to get novacom from the webOS download and novaterm from the palm folder... see how that goes I'll post back once I've tried. Thanks again for all the help.
or uninstall the sdk, delete the Palm, Inc folder.
Download any Webosdoctor from webos internals site.
Run the novacom universal installer, choose "select file", choose the webosdoctor download.
The Palm, Inc folder will be created from it and drivers installed.
If you have any copy off Webos doctor on your computer and have Java installed download Universalnovscominstaller and when or if you have it right click on the file then go down to open with and select Java(TM) Platform, the novacom installer will pop up click on install then click on select file then navigate to wherever you have Webos doctor ie desktop etc select it and hey presto the novacom drivers will be installed.
P.S do not download Webos doctor with windows explorer as for some reason it appears to mess it up , use chrome.
Done and done!
Finally managed to get it done, after trying to do it on 2 Win7 PCs, went to an old XP laptop and tried on there.
If anyone gets stuck on this and finds this thread:
I used Universal Novacom Installer and installed Novacom from webOS Doctor 3.0.5, on an XP system. After that put ACMEUninstaller in Palm, Inc folder and ran the "novacom boot....." command and Android was gone! :victory: :crying:
Thank you all for the help, I'm so relieved after slaving away at this for over a day

Happy you finally got there and thanks for clicking on the thank you box the solution I posted has been given by others so credit to everyone the bit that took me a long time was to click on open with and the fact that for what ever reason windows explorer messes up the download
hence the reason for my post.
All the best.
Just had my TP collected today by UPS. Let's hope when I get it back and try to put android again I won't have to go through this hell again
you can also change the compatibility settings for the app youre trying to run if its not working correctly in windows 7.

Andydroid "Cannot start render server thread : render server failed error"

Following are thing that i have tried :
1. tried to run it as admin
2. deleted all of the vms and created a new one
3. restrated it
I have the same issue, it started after I closed it, it seems. Nothing seems to fix it...I'd suggest going to Memu anyway. Seems to work quite a bit better.
I have figured it out! You need to uninstall all vmware products, and andy from your computer. Then you need to install VirtualBox, then after that, reinstall andy.

It worked! Thanks
VMware is part of the installer of Andyroid... So this fix does not work. If you install Andy, and want it working, you will need VMware..

How to properly uninstall andy
Hello, plese, can you hekp me, how can I properly delete my VM and Andy, because if I uninstall wit the option delete user data, when I reinstall I still have the error render server failed error?
Thanks for your answer.
I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 and had the same error. This worked for me: Uninstalled VMware Player and VMware VIX from Settings>Programs and REBOOTED my PC. Then ran the two .msi files (Windows Installer Packages) from C:\Program Files\AndyOfflineInstaller46.2\VMW. Remember to REBOOT your PC, and you'll be fine.
i run the setup again inside Program Files\AndyOfflineInstallerxx.x folder
no uninstall nor restart needed for me atleast.
