try flashing stock ftf without wipe data checked........ and then try rooting........

It's because you've swapped the kernels to get root i assume?
If so, deal with it. Get root and then flash the newer kernel back

This can happen sometimes...due to .10 kernel on .54 firmware.Don't worry just reboot and try again...or else delete all .semcbackup folder files or copy them anywhere else(on pc),such that there is no backup present in backup and restore app.Then try rooting..then do a quick guess touch:silly:to select root.me and press backup.This happened with me too...

Search and download "android commander"
Install it...open..connect your phone to pc. If your phone is rooted...then you already know what is recovery.(Connecting boot to recovery...attach USB..mount data, system partitions.
Open android commander.exe...application manager..uninstall "root uninstaller" OK.
Restart phone.
This should unzfreez those apparently what you freezes.
It this don't help...make FW reinstall.

I dont know what recovery is or how to use:/ I said I am new
to root i user zergrush exploit
I prefer the easier way to reinstall the firmware
coz i dont think that unistalling the (root unistaller) will solve the problem i think rename the name of the servise to freeze it
i found that.... how to boot into recovery mode? theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-the-htc-mytouch-3g/

[HELP][MiniPro] Unresponsive Touchscreen Issue!

Hey guys!
From the past week or so ive had this problem with my mini pros touchscreen... It works very well all the time but sometimes when I unlock the fone it takes a 1 second or 2 more than usual to light up and then the screen dosent respond to touch AT ALL this also happens sometimes when I recv a call but cant answer coz the touchscreen dosent respond. This happens like twice in 10 times but m afraid I might damage my phone if I dont do anything about it.
Im pretty sure its a software issue cz when it works it works really welll.. I also found out that I could unlock by simply sliding the hw keyboard open and most of the tim I got the touch back after that... Also once when I was using the hw keyboard the touch stopped responding ..so I closed the keyboard n everything was backk to normal. Most of the time this problem happens when im unlocking the phone :banghead:
Plz tell me what to do!!
Thanks

Hmmmm...it's not a hardware (digitizer) problem but more to your Custom Roms....sometimes touch screen do lag (stop responding) on certain Custom Roms....it's not a big problem cause if you reboot the phone, the problem is fixed (temporarily)....to fix the lag, it required editing the build.prop (adding a few tweaks) but this will not fully fix it....
Yes I totally agreed what Pusak Gaoq said. The problem come when installing some custom rom. The wrong touchscreen driver will mess up your phone. Your phone will load up the driver even wrong touchscreen driver is use. This problem was also happened on some user before. Try nandroid backup and flash stock .ftf firmware.
Thay why I never use any custom rom except CM based rom.

Hmmm...did you ever drop you phone before this???
!!!
All working now
I followed the method from lunatic2nuts.
Here's what I did:
wipe data/cache/system
flash .62 firmware [ST15i_link]
flash custom kernel with recovery
flash hybromV10 without wiping anything (that's what I did)
boot into hybrom, then turn it off, i.e. take the battery out
flash .62 again
I was major surprised that it actually worked since I've tried it already but with factory reset when flashing hybrom.

I already installed like 4 times the same MOD (3.1.11) but still giving me error with camera and block screen.
Today this is what i did: i installed the MOD 2.12.29 with the control panel with 4way reboot and center clock and message app landscape mode fix (ofc every single wipe: data, calvik, cache.), camera in this version works prefect, atm is running fine, hope it wont go on black screen after lock it and also the SYM key on keybord is not showing you know the symbols we got on a stock ICS.
By the way ¡¡¡EXCELENTE!!! ROM i rlly rlly like it, thats why im trying to make it works on my phone, seems like im the only one with this kind of error xd, well gotta see if it works fine with this one and wait till a new release is out from this ROM, thx again.

keyboard sym bug is bug that needs to be fixed from source, it's not major anyways. About your bug in 3.1.11, i believe you made wrong wipes, or it could be a kernel thing, i don't know, try with stock one, and format EVERYTHING (wipe data, wipe cache, format system, cache and data, wipe dalvik and wipe battery stats, then install, with stock kernel, if it works, then flash another kernel, if it breaks, that was it)
Try cm9 or cm10. CM looks pretty good, has a lot of features(especially CM10) and doesn't use too much of RAM.

I hate when people do this, really. He is here to fix a problem in MIUI rom, why suggest him other rom? It's like insulting the developer. Please, if you don't have information about his issue don't post
Odp: HELP!! HaSa Miui 3.1.11
Camera fix:
Go to system/lib in rom that has working camera and copy liboecamera.so to your phone.
Then push it to system/lib on your phone using apply like root explorer.
Now set permissions to r-w-r-r (chmod 644).

So i give up and leave it in 4.0.4 stock, with new Mesa kernel :crying: i do rlly want to run the MIUI on my big giant but idk if im doing something wrong ):

Sure, you can format it. It's really weird, with root, cwm, in ICS .587 (be sure to be on that, not .431) you should be able to get MIUI... I usually wipe data, wipe cache, format system, wipe dalvik cache, and then install rom, and it works just fine. You are doing something wrong

Xperia sola Camera not working

Hello,
I have an Xperia sola with stock ICS rom.
I recently rooted and unlocked the boot loader of my xperia sola.
After that I ran Supercharger v6, Speedy Sola and AC!D Audio.
The camera worked fine before I rooted and unlocked the bootloader (while on ICS and back when I was on GB), but today I noticed that when I try to go to the camera nothing happens. I only hear a blink of the shutter and the screen goes black for a second.
I tried using Cyber Shot Mod but nothing changed, accept now there is no normal Camera app available, only the Cyber shot, which does the same as the stock camera app did (blink sound and black screen for a second).
I tried Flashing it to 6.1.1.B.1.54, nothing happened. Tried setting it back to factory but nothing changed.
I downloaded a camera app from Google Play and I can take photos there, but they are not as good and I would like to have my original camera app, as it was fine for me.
Please help.
Are you still using this rom with those apps installed? If so try a hard reset, if this doenst work try to flash stock ICS or GB rom...

Thank you for trying to help me.
As I wrote I already tried to factory reset it and flashing it back to ICS rom (with flashtool) but no luck.
After I did that it seems I still have root access, CWM is still installed and AC!D Audio is still there.
Do you refer to something different from factory reset when you wrote "hard reset"?
If not, do you have any other suggestions?
Then flash .54 tft again and do a full wipe (data), factory reset ang tick wipe data. You can remove sdcard if you want but everything from phone will be wiped, so bacjup what you want.

[Q] Help! Lock screen lost and power button gone mad!

My SGS2 9100P crashed and I had to flash ROM back with Odin, my data still there.
All fine, the phone was back, then I rooted it and....
The screen does not lock!
No matter what option I select, when the screen is black and I press home button it goes directly to home, skipping also the trace lock!
Long pressing the power button does NOT show the menu where you select vibrate, data... but turns off the phone immediately!!
I think there's some mess in the lock screen configuration files, but I don't know what they are and how to reset them!
Please help!!

First backup each and every thing then delete everything like wipe data/factory reset wipe dalvik cache cache partition and format system and if it still doesn't make any difference I'd buy a new phone

Are you ok now ?
I think you need an optimizing app for your device.
It's not the phone: if I flash the ROM with Odin, replacing all system it works ok.
When I root it, the lock screen stops working!

No, I mean I checked the secure table and the row it tries to insert is already there...
I checked the other posts, but don't seem to help.
The problem appears when flashing the rooted kernel, which means a new zImage and some superuser files.
I'm going to try to flash back the original zImage and what happens.
Believe it or not, I've been suggested to check my IMEI: it was wrong (generic), so I restored my /efs directory from an old backup and the problems are solved!!!
Does anybody know how this can be?
