HTC DESIRE C resurrection? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there. My name is Dave.
I am having trouble finding a correct place for this thread. This is the nearest place i could find for this topic. Q+A.
I am having some trouble with my htc desire c. I know there is not alot of development for this device as it is fairly new to market. however i had nameless rom installed (latest release) and all was well but last night i was trying to wipe back to stock rom. But things went badly. At first it didn't boot past the boot animation but now it doesn't even get that far. it stays on the warning about the build being for development purposes.
I can get into fastboot and it works. However my adb does not work. wont detect my device. drivers are installed correctly. Tried pushing via adb and fastboot. tried flashing via fastboot even booting the rom. i am using the first release of nameless rom when flashing to see if it will succeed. As far as i get is its starts writing the zip file etc but at the end says (remote: not allowed) FAILED.
I tried mounting my sdcard and placing the rom and installing via recovery but my sdcard wont mount on my pc. tried in another phone also. same thing
i have 2x2gb microsd cards and neither of them will mount
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have searched high and low across the internet to no avail

Why did ypu try to revert to stock rom? And did you try reflashing nameless 2.0.2? I have been using nameless since 1.1 and am now on 2.0.2 with stock rosie and systemui flashed.

I have it sorted finally. i borrowed (secretly) my mothers SIII and put in my sdcard and transferred the nameless rom through that way because my pc detected it
Recovery > Flash > Success!
Oh and in response to your previous question. I was returning to stock to unroot because i plan on selling my htc desire c. I bought a sidekick lx 2009 online. I live in Ireland but it works for phone and text. i bought it because I hate touchscreen keyboards i make too many mistakes and typos which frustrate me. My sidekick has a physical flipout keyboard (I have stubby thumbs) =[

Well Im glad you fixed it. Good luck on selling it!

Thanks. I understand I might be posting in the wrong session, but this is the only thread on XDA that shares HTC Locations. I flashed TWRP Recovery on my device, then when I tried installing Locations-signed,zip, I got error message saying "No md5 file found". If you have solutions to this, I will be greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

There is a setting (I forget exact wording) to ignore md5 check. Set that and you ~ should~ be good to go. You will still see the same message during flash, but it should continue without issue

I just got an a710 with 4.04. I think I understand how to get CwM on it. But when I read the thread, it said it cannot be used on top of the stock rom. How do I install it then if I have the stock rom? Thanks for any help!

How do I access the system files through usb? I cant access it through usb using my computer. I just need to know how to place the recovery file in the root folder.
The way I did it was I moved the cwm file to a SD card then moved it manually to the root of my device.

I thanked all of your replies. I tried using the unlockroot program but it keeps saying "try to install the driver" and it wont root. I am guessing I dont have the correct adb usb drivers? Any help getting it to root is appreciated. I feel so bad asking you all the time for help!
Don't feel bad I was in a same position as you didn't know nothing about the tablet and how to root etc and Yeh you have to install the drivers you did check USB debugging right?

USB debugging is on and after it installs the drivers nothing happens. It keeps asking me to "do you want to install drivers" over and over again. I wish this was so straight forward like when I had to root/flash my samsung galaxy s2. This is giving me a headache. Im so glad your here to guide me!
Don't know I mean it should have just rooted it thats what I did after it installed the drivers :/

Hi folks,
I'm having a similar issue, I have a variant of the mid a710 tablet. I changed the dpi to make it more usable and now the tablet is basically a brick as I stupidly didn't install a new launcher app and it repeatedly says "Unfortunately launcher has stopped" (I've looked for a way to fix this but no joy).
My problem is that I cannot find a working driver for the tablet to allow me to flash it. I followed the link from earlier in this thread for Chinese device drivers however it's saying it's not suitable for 64 bit windows, tried it on my 32-bit machine and said it wasn't suitable for that either.
When I get it into recovery mode (lying down android with the red triangle) none of the buttons work to choose wiping the device (vol- and such).
Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this tablet? Not too bothers about having JB but at least getting back to ICS would be lovely.
Thanks.
thanks alot guys
where can i get CWM? and why is this file need it:LY-F1 compatibility zip file ???

WiFi broken and can't read SIM after flashing virtuous rom?

To add into relations to my other post the reason I had to restir is cause the Virtuous Rom booted and WiFi woild not toggle on and keeps saying insert SIM.
??
I was only trying to install a good stable gsm Rom that would initially work well with apn settings seeing as I use the droid DNA UNLOCKED on T-Mobile.
I can't figure a way to keep the apn settings set after a reboot they default
So I read flashing a global gsm Rom will auto save the apns and theyll stick.
Any insight? Any good Roms that will do this for T-Mobile
And any reason or known reason on the re insert SIM issue after flashing a Rom
this is a noted problem from what I've read ,but with no Straight forward reason or solution.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Well the Wifi not working is cuz you didn't flash the kernel properly.
And for the sim error, that's just a problem with the dna. Re seat it and it should be fine.

When you unzip the file there should be a boot.img file you will need to flash in fastboot. the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then once you do that, boot into recovery and reflash the rom. Wifi should work.
According to both Verizon and HTC, there was a known issue with the phone software and not being able to read the SIM card. It happened to mine about ten times every week until an update was released to supposedly fix it in February. I still get the error from time to time, but far less than I did previously. If you've rooted and flashed a ROM prior to February, I would suggest making a backup and restoring the phone back to stock. Once you've done this, do the update to the new firmware and then reroot and restore from your backup. This should, I think, fix most SIM issues.

{ROM}{PORT} Avatar ROM {ROM}{PORT}

I have taken the e975 international Optimus G official rom by avatar and ported it to our AT&T E970 until they make an official build for us. this rom is pretty bad. the theme options are much like Miui and they have many great features built into it.
Go to their website for the full low down on the rom and to request new features and themes and if you are a themer please make some of your themes available on their format.
Avatar Rom
I'll add the full details later tonight i'm in a rush for a BBQ and cold beer this afternoon but saw the avatar admin said i could post this port up and wanted to get it out to you all
I used our CM10.1 as a base so its using the cm10.1 kernel and any other kernel that ran on it should run on this but i have not tested it yet so beware and make backups
I used BANKS Gapps and have had no problem yet.
*****Known Issues****
- jb calling bug
- on initial install the external SD isn't recognized (I used the SD card fix from when codefire and others didn;t see the sd either. the link is below and i'm working on a permanent fix this week
-a few of the about phone/rom info is wrong. i'm also fixing this later this week
**Install Instructions**
1) Download the rom, gapps, and SD card fix from below and place them at the root of your SD card
2) Boot into CW and make a nandroid. i also recomened using Titanium to backup your apps
3) Wipe dalvik cache, system and do a full data wipe as well
4) Select Install zip and choose the rom file
5) Install Gapps if you wish
6) Install the SD card fix
7) Reboot into the ROM and let it boot up
8) boot into CW and restore your data if you so desire.

I ditto the fellow above me here. I have tried to follow that guide and I can see my SD card in file manager. But in system > storage there is only internal recognised. No option for SD/external/added memory. Kinda want to see my giant gallery from my 64gb/32gb cards.

Just messed around with this rom on my Galaxy S 2 and I gotta say . . . I would LOVE to get this up an running. Here's hoping you keep up the fixes.
Any plans on updating to newest version of the rom? Or is this one dead?

You can flash kernal through AIO toolkit.
Just connect your phone in recovery mode and start that soft in PC.
For flashing kernal..file..
And your phone will be booted up

To boot your phone in recovery mode, you can go to developer settings in your phone, select USB debugging and boot it in recovery mode using the amaze toolkit 4.1 or All-in-One toolkit for the amaze.
