[Q] Theme not installing properly - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Currently I have a rooted Sensation.
I tried to install a theme using Rom Manager.
It said it installed successfully.
I reboot.
And when I boot up everything is weird. The drop shadow on all windows is green.
The Desktop isn't showing at all.
I can select applications from the locked menu. (Before I unlock) Like camera, mail etc.
Any thoughts on what might be wrong and how to fix?

Themes may require you to have a de-odexed rom. Is the rom you have odexed or de-odexed?
Either that, or you downloaded a bad file. Re-download and install again to see if it works.

I don't know what odexed means.
I have tried to install it again.
And maybe I should mention that I installed it through bootloader? Recovery or what it is called.
I saw that you were able to install other themes simply using the apk file. But this one required you to install it through recovery.
Currently I am able to take photos and call people. There's no home screen.
When I try to view messages I get an error.
Is there any way I can like reset it to before I installed the theme? I was told to back it up before installing the theme, which I didn't do. Any other way to fix this?

Check out this thread. It will help you get back to a stock rom, since you never made a backup.
I would strongly advise to to backup up everything before you start messing around. That way you have a backup to fall back on in case something like this issue happens.
When I first started messing around with root and custom roms, I never did a nandroid, and the phone was bootlooping. So I had to start over from scratch.

Tried Method 2 of debranding since it was the easiest one. Made no difference.
Trying Method 1 right now. Will report back with progress.

Just realized that I am not able to use Method 1 since it requires me to have USB Disk Drive mounted, which I can only do from recovery mode. And since I did not remove the image file it now constantly asks me if I want to update in HBOOT. So I can't really get past it.
If I update, it updates and reboots. If I click cancel it reboots.
What should I do?

Run a RUU. Which carrier are you coming from?

Did you not read my post?
I can not do anything in recovery mode, I.e not enable disk drive.

Just to clarify: There is no way of transferring ANY files from my PC to my phone that I am aware of at the moment.
You should take this into consideration before you come telling me to install stuff.

I said to run a RUU. It stands for Rom Utility Update. This is an executable program that you can run from the PC to your phone. It will take an image that was made specifically for your phone and flash over what you currently have, and once it's done and you power your phone on, it should look like you just took the phone out of the box. Download the RUU that matches your phone to the PC. Be sure that you pick the right one. Run the RUU on your PC. It will instruct you what to do as far as plugging your phone to the PC, when to turn it on/off, etc.
Once the program finishes, your phone should be reset, stocked, and back to normal.

Buy one off EBay it only cost £2
Sent from my HTC Sensation

Ok, I was able to fix so that I can moun the USB Mass Storage device in Revolutionary CWM(In HBOOT). But the setup can not find my phone.
Any tips on how to deal with this? Is there maybe a way of installing a zip from the sdcard?

Okay, so I got my phone semi running like before.
And I plugged it into my computer and choose HTC Sync.
My phone was picked up by the computer.
So I tried starting the setup. And it worked!
Great success!

[Q] Need help going back to rootless stock w/ no usb capabilities.

My usb port charges, but MOST DEFINITELY will not connect in any way to my pc...with all necessary drivers installed. My fiancee's connects just fine...so my usb is broken. Have tried cleaning it numerous times...etc. Does anyone know if it is possible to return to factory stock 2.2 or 2.1 with a flashable zip? I guess I'm also wondering if a nandroid flash will completely unroot me, also!? I found a file that says it'll take me to baseband T959UVJFD w/out root. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Check The Bible.
Usually when this is an issue it's b/c of a rom or something, what did you flash? Was it a non-vibrant rom?

I've got this same problem. It's been like this for a couple days. I'd had Bionix-v1.3.1 on the for 4 or 5 days with no issues. All of a sudden, though, no computers I've tried will recognized the phone in mass storage mode. It still charges fine, though.
Edit: And I couldn't find anything in the Bible on USB connection issues. Maybe I missed it.

Went to my fiancee's laptop, installed the 64 bit samsung drivers, along with having ADB set up, and boom... was finally able to connect in Odin 1.7 to restore back to stock. Once that happened, I was able to connect on the same laptop to pull all files from the phone to make sure it was wiped out. You can also check partition in Odin. It's wierd, though, cuz my phone would not connect all of a sudden on a specific pc, while it worked just fine on another. And my old lady's worked on both! Same roms, too. WIERD!

Thanks for this. It does sound like my partitions might be a little funky. I'm reformatting my laptop, so I'll see if starting fresh on at least the computer side will help things along.

[Q] Rooted I717, constant reboots, no recovery, flashing stock ROM not working

I changed from an iPhone 4 in May to the Samsung Note. On my iPhone I would immediately jailbreak and install MyWi. In my research to do the same on the note I ran across a rooting tutorial for my device and followed the instructions http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-note-att-i717-root-without-increasing-flash-counter-61325/ (I am not positive, but I feel confident this is the one I followed). I installed Superuser and Titanium Backup, did a backup of ATT connection manager, then removed it. Tethering worked like a charm. This has worked and I had no issues until Friday June 14th.
On Friday, everytime I opened an app on my phone I would get a Force Close. I restarted the phone and watched as it repeatedly happened after every cycle. Believing that installing Droid VNC Server was the issue, the last app I had installed, I removed it successfully and included others I didn’t use. Upon reboot, I noticed the notification of App Updates and a missed call. Checked the application list and noticed that all of the apps I had just removed were still there. I have a ton of pics and videos and thought that I should back them up immediately before I deleted them, prepared for the worst. I was able to do that. I deleted them all, nothing in the gallery. When the phone crapped out again and rebooted, all apps and all pictures back.
I formatted the USB Storage, seemed to delete nothing and also showed the same amount of used space as before.
Time for a restore. I know now that the recovery partition is gone and so a Wipe/reset is fruitless. No problem. I know how to flash the rom. I used this method with Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330
Everything seemed to work successfully, but upon reboot I get the same app updates notification and the same missed call notification. The same frozen state my phone was in when the issue started on Friday. WTH!
I have everything backed up. How do I get back to stock? I could care less about the counter. I just want my phone to be usable again.

did you try wiping Catche and Dav?
Wipe Catch > Wife Davlik > Fix Permision, then reboot ..
see what happens ..
Not a noob, but here is where i am lost
I booted in to recovery, chose to Wipe/Erase . I see no option to Wipe Davlik except for in SuperUser and there it is a paid option, not sure where to find Fix Permission and then reboot?
I am assuming these are all options for CWM. I attempted to put CWM on an SD card last night and install from ZIP, but Recovery does not seem to see the SD card.
Are these options that are available for CWM, if so I will push through until I get it to work, but I have had no luck to this point.

no need to go back to stock .
try reflashing whichever ROM you desire...
its always wise to follow every little STEP given by the DEV .
to wipe dav you go to advance and it should be there..

I have attempted to Flash ROMs I don't desire just to move forward. They all flash and pass in Odin but on reboot I still have my default screen. Unfortunately, I want to go back to stock. I have done plenty of research and need something more to push on to the next thing. I am looking at phone and there is not an Advanced option in recovery. I have read there are options in CWM but I am looking at what I believe is the stock recovery options.

after you are rooted ,
you should have nothing to do with Odin.
and also, if you were stuck on your phone trying to boot up, chances are you keep downloading a bad ROM..
happen to me before..a ROM that was suposed to be 192MB,
would finish on 158MB
someone else may be able to help you get back to stock ROM..i havent had the chance to ever wanna go back to stock so i wouldnt know for sure.
sorry and good luck .

You now have a custom recovery(according to Odin). The problem is, you're doing the wrong key combo as stated above. You can also go to the market and grab FJ's power tool. You can boot into recovery directly from the app. Good luck.

I immediately attempt to access CWM Recovery by holding the power, vol+ and vol- and still get the default recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/d176blydonlvrlu/2012-06-19 20.13.42.jpg
I am so confused as to what I am doing wrong.
Unfortunately those pics aren't loading for me. Try again with the pic of recovery and the file you're flashing. Thanks. If you still have stock recovery then maybe that's what you're flashing in error.
Try volume up + down and power button. When phone vibrates, release power button but keep holding volume buttons until you are in cwm.
I would use Odin to flash cwm touch recovery from pda, then load a rom via cwm. Using that method you don't even need to root because it's all done at bootloader level and root is built in to the custom rom you flash

[Q] RUU help

i am s-off . i got a replacement phone from verizon now i have to return the old one. im trying to get it back fully stock. the phone they sent me has version 3.14.605.12. ive downloaded several ruu. the latest one i flashed was the latest ota with global features. yes i set it in the root of sd card names it properly and did it through hboot. once it installs, the phone restarts and keeps on booting. it gets stuck on the htc logo screen . ive flashed each ruu more then twice and it still does it. any help? also can someone redirect me to a link for the 3.14.605.12 zip ruu thats not android police?
thank you
You can get the release just before that one here:
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Vigor
I don't know why you are having issues, it seems you are letting it run its course and you've run it more than once so it should have gotten all the files it needs. Sorry I can't help with that, but maybe the one in the link above will work.

thank you for responding. I see that those files are .exe how would i go about it?
Actually it looks like it is .12 up there now.
You would run it using your pc. Attach the phone and then double click on the .exe and it should do its thing. I remember seeing instructions somewhere... perhaps they come up with you start it, I think that's it. It will take you through it and has pics of what the screen should look like after it opens up.
Doesnt the phone have to be fully booted so the program can read it?
To be honest I can't remember what state the phone has to be in, it's been a while since I RUU'd.
Try it fully booted, if that doesn't work try it in hboot/[YOUTUBE]fastboot. You might need HTC sync installed as well.
I just looked for the thread of the shipped RUUs in the Development section but no luck, it may not be there anymore. It would have all this info in it. Let me check my notes, if I put anything in there about this I'll post back.

i flashed it twice and it still did not work. it boots to the htc screen and it just restarts again i left it for about 5 mins and it never fully booted. any other suggestions?
Yes! Try using the instructions in the doc I attached and see if you can use the ROM in your "exe" RUU to flash using hboot. Maybe it'll work. The doc tells you how to extract the ROM and make a PH98IMG.zip for it.
Also, you say you were able to run the exe RUU successfully? But then the phone wouldn't boot?
And... you checked the MD5 on all your downloads and they match?

Thank you for the info. i really dont know what i did but it worked all of a sudden. i did manage to get the .exe file to work when i was on fastbooot. i did it twice but it still would not boot up all the way. i finally just pulled the battery and gave up. several hours later when i turned it on it actually boot all the way. i have no clue why the dam thing wasnt working at first. this was not my first picnic. thanks for the help once again.

Stuck in bootloader

Sorry for making two threads, but so confused and out of ideas on what to do.
I relocked my bootloader because i was going to try installing the newest RUU, but for some reason my computer cant seem to find my device even though its plugged in. So i cant load my phone, i can load recovery i cant even turn off my phone, and i cant access it from my computer.
So i have no clue what to do, help would be greatly appreciated

You can load recovery? Put the RUU on your sdcard by mounting your sdcard inside of recovery. Maybe that will work???
heres a program i use for unlocking my bootloader/locking and flashing recovery's
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734365
i know it says (one x) but it does work with other phones. been using it on my rezound
go to your bootloader and than enter fastboot and connect to your pc using usb
than put your RUU (latest is 4.03.605.2) in the zip folder which is in the one click main folder
make sure that zip is named as PH98IMG
than launch the program than in the menu choose (RUU - Advanced) than choose the zip from the drop down menu and click perform action
(i havent tried this option yet but im sure it works!, im probably going to test right now just to make sure)
EDIT: BTW you dont need to relock your bootloader for installing a new RUU. i flash my RUU with it unlocked/S-OFF all the time, you only have to remember to flash your custom recovery after the RUU if you use one
My bad it was a typo, i couldnt load recovery, but i ended up finding a way to make my drivers work and could make contact with my phone and unlocked my bootloader. Am currently flashing a RUU, and afterwards am going to try and install EclipticRez, and hopefully it will work this time
If not can you suggest any other popular, stable ROMs?

Plug it into a computer and see what device pops up. Or get a multimeter just to make sure the battery is crapped out.
Nvm, just took out battery, and waited a bit before i put it back in and it worked
Got the viperrez installed, now just trying to find out how to get Emoji's working haha

[Q] Bricked HTC One. Urgent, Help?

I believe I have soft bricked my device. Earlier this morning I installed ARHD, it went into the AROMA Installer and went through the process of picking the mods that I wanted, I hit install & as soon as it hit 99 Percent, I was brought back to TWRP as if I didn't flash anything. Feeling confused, I hit reboot system and after the HTC Screen boots up, it takes me directly back to TWRP. I've never experienced anything like this before, what in the world did I do incorrectly? Please help, feel free to chime in.

Thats not a brick, thats a boot loop of sorts. If I were you I would try flashing back to 100% stock and start over.

How do I go about flashing this through fastboot? I have the stock ROM downloaded and everything but I don't get what I'm supposed to do.

Can you tell me where you downloaded the stock rom from so I can have a copy of it just in case I need to go back to stock? Also is this stock rom the T-Mobile stock rom? Thanks.

It's a NANDROID. Restore NANDROID in recovery mode.

I did the EXACT same thing, except now my internal storage won't mount, rendering the nandroid option useless. I tried flashing it via fastboot to no avail. Any suggestions, outside of waiting for the ruu to be released?

Well considering you're familiar with fastboot, what I did was relock my bootloader, unlocked it again and this time I installed CWM instead of TWRP, used adb sideload connected my device via usb cable, downloaded the stock ROM from @Mike1986 and pushed it to my device and profit. I learned my lesson not to use the touch screen and to use the power button to navigate through Aroma. I hope this helps..

Ironically I was gonna suggest not using touchscreen twrp, that it might be the problem. Only when using Aroma though (I believe). Touchscreen in Aroma using twrp is known to fubar phones at this point.

I wasn't aware of the sideload function, but that worked like a charm. Thank you sir.
