I tried to install frx 04 finished the calibration setup and then there was a black screen which i think was android booting up. However I reset my phone at this point because there was a black screen 4 about 2 mins. Tried to run haret again but got the message the file 'haret' cannot be opened. either it is not trusted..if the problem persists try reinstalling or restoring the file.
I tried deleting all the frx04 files and putting them back into memory card but I keep getting that message. What do I do ?(btw htc touch hd.)
problem solved
hard reset, changed roms, android now works!
try formating the card and reinstalling the fresh full FRX4 (dated 10/2)

use fresh copy of haret and see if your STARTUP.txt is right
most importantly check if this is right:
a) if your haret and other files are in root of the sd,open startup.txt and check if there is something like "rel_path=andboot" if there is,just delete that
b) if your haret and other files are in some folder eg. "FOLDER3" go to startup.txt and
-if there is no "rel_path=****" add "rel_path=FOLDER3"
-if there is just change **** to FOLDER3
be sure that rel_path has space before it and it is under quotes together
since there are only one quotes in that file,you will easily find them and place the right line there
additionally check for SD card problems,use search for your problem, you can easily find what to add to startup.txt if it is an sd card issue

i dont understand what u mean by ' be sure that rel_path has space before it and it is under quotes together'
i've uploaded my startup file, my haret and files are in an andboot folder with the rel_path added onto startup

Flash with another ROM, for example: WM 6.5.x (build 28244) I think it's the best!
Next.. on a FRESH formatted microSD card copy all the linux/android files except the "modules*****", "rootfs.img" and "zImage" to the root of microSD.
Go here and download the latest kernel htc-msm****
Next>> Go here and download the latest rootfs
Next>> unpack the "htc-msm***" archive and copy "modules-***" and "zImage-***" to root of microSD, rename "zImage-***" to "zImage", "modules-***" don't need rename!
Unpack the "rootfs-***" archive and copy "rootfs-***.img" to root of microSD, rename "rootfs-***.img" to "rootfs.img", delete "data.img" if exist, delete "ts-calibration" if exist!
Hope this helps!
Best Regards, FLeX!
Edit: use the untouched STARTUP.TXT

If that's your startup.txt, the problem is right there:
NOT:
....gsensor_axis=-2,-1,3"
boot
rel_path=andboot
BUT:
....gsensor_axis=-2,-1,3 rel_path=andboot"
boot
That should fix the FIRST problem with booting it up.
Another problem might be still having the USB plugged in to the phone. Be sure to take it out before running haret.

Better yet. I took your startup.txt made it look more readable.
See pic for how the folder should look.
Don't worry about not having data.img and tscalibration files, they are created on first boot.
And there's a great video about it on youtube by theDeadCPU. --> VIDEO <--
Just in case your kernel doesn't ask for calibration, download the attached file and put it in andboot folder. Remove extension (should be ts-calibration)

androids been working fine until yesterday, until i booted android and it decided to go into a disk check, or something like that and got stuck for like 3 hours so i restarted it and now every time i start android, no matter what version, ive cleaned my card 6 times and put all the stuff back in it gives me:
Code:
Failed to find system.img on SD card
/bin/sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
/
heres a picture of my folder:
Please help?
look over at the error message and the picture you posted 1 more time..i think ur system is named wrong.
im so confused isnt systemmap the ssystem.img its talking bout?
Your system file always has to be renamed to system.sqsh. (The only exception is if you have a file that is system-xxx.img. Then you'd rename it to system.img.)
Sally
it i now system.sqsh still gives me same error
Which version of basefiles are you using?
Are you using a really old version or the ones from 11/16/09?

i figured it out, u gotta put it in the root of the SD card i had it with the other files, but now when it boots it sits at the boot screen and doesnt actually boot up
Usually, everything goes in the Android folder, /android. It looks like you're trying to run SenseHero. Is your default.txt set at 320 x 480 with a density of 160? Are you using the hero.user.conf file from the SenseHero thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=259474&d=1261528033
Just replace the hero.user.conf file in your conf folder with the one I linked to.

Hi there,
I've downloaded, unzipped and tried to install the froyo twice on my HTC HD2 but it never seems to complete the installation, it stays on the installation screen like for ever until I get tired and take the batteries out for a restart.

Thanks for ur response, I'll try it and let u know what happens.
Tried it again and left it to run for like an hr and still nothing happened, but this time I read the proceedings and realized it said "couldnt file root on SD card"
rootfs file might be zipped. If it is unzip it and put it into your android folder. If it is there and not zipped format your SD card and try again. Also what radio are you using? Make sure you copy all the contents into an android folder and then copy the android folder to your SD card as well.

Haha.
Do only some have to change startup.txt? All I did was move the android folder to my card and I've been rollin' FroyoStone all day, no problems.
Peace all,
Currently try to place the Andriod OS on my girlfreind's HD2. I had placed the file on her SD card before and it worked w/o any problems. Recently she started having problems so I decided to place a real "dual boot" ROM (OzDroid) onto her phone. that went well---but when i placed Meejay's Revolution 2.3 on the root of her SD card---for some reason OzDroid doesn't detect the Android build and when i try to do the fix that comes on OzDroid to repair Android it says "error on startup.txt". Can anyone help me with this or point me to the right direction?
thanks in advance

but what is the text inside startup.txt?
Perhaps it's because it's looking natively in the "Android" folder, which I know guess is not pressent on the other SD card.
Open your startup.txt on your android phone, and look for this line:
set cmd "rel_path=Android" or simmilar. If so, remove the entire cmd line, if there is nothing else in that line. Otherwise, just remove the rel_path=Android part inside the "" signs.
Hope this helps you

Hi guys,
Somehow I screwed my Android and now I can't use it (android.process.acore force close keeps popping up). I don't mind doing a fresh install as long as I can keep my game datas. Unfortunately haven't done any backup. So, is there any way to do that from PC as I can't start my Android? Just for info: the games are zenonia and angry birds. Thank you very much.

Just copy all the data from the memory card into a folder in your PC(i am sure you know how to mount your memory card , just take it out and put in into a card reader or mount it in Windows mobile), but that does mean all the faults you have might get accompanied along
All the apps you download and install is in the data.img file. Just redownload your build and put your data.img file in there. It'll will be as good as the working system...if that works, just copy over the other folders from your sd card root. I suspect the files corruption is only in the Android folder. Good luck
nope. copying the data.img file to a new build still produces the same result. as I said, I screwed the data.img file.
I think you need to have linux running on your system to be able to view the data.img file because it is a linux filesystem. Download a ubuntu liveCD and run it on your computer OR ubuntu through vmware. I don't know the exact ways to get to the files but this is the start. I think someone already have a tutorial on this somewhere in the HD2 Android general section. Check there. Goodluck.
how to mount data.img
I still have the problem that I srewed up my data.img
Android boots but I only get a black screen.
When pressing buttons (End Key) I can see Menus and feel vibra feedback.
I have debian Linux
How can I mount my data.img
debian40:/home/erich/Desktop# mount -t udf data.img ~/img -o loop
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

This will work in Windows-based Computer.
Download and extract the attachment.
Run the exe file.
Click new (first icon) and navigate to the data.img you want to check and click to select.
You can extract/save all or select the files on that data.img by navigating through the files on the left side of the window then click save (4th icon) then navigate where you want to save it.
If you need more help, just PM me.

Very handy tool here. Had to try it to see for myself. And it works. You will find all your apps and game's data in the data folder. Just copy the folder for angry birds onto your phone in the /data/data folder and your progress in angry birds will be restored. You can even use this program to backup all your installed apps (.apk) including your paid apps.
disable Autostart - or DELETE Autostart Tools
Yea great way
Thank you
Does anybody know where the "autostart" folder is located under Android?
Because then I could try to fix my data.img.
In WM6.5 its easy to locate,...
I am sure it was a Launcher tool which srewed up my system,...
Guess that this could help for sure other users - when it would be possible to boot Android without AUTOSTART of installed proz
many Greet`s

Download the latest Acer stock ROM to your PC (many stock roms found on this page). Transfer it to your external SD card and make sure to rename it "update.zip". Boot holding down volume and power until you see lines of text, then let it do it's thing
thanks for the info! I found a ROM on this thread.. not sure if its the latest 3.1 build.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154492
so I downloaded it to my PC.. comes as a ZIP file.. "update_3.1".. do I unzip folder & renamed it "update.zip"? or do I leave it zipped, rename it and transfer to SD card & boot up? again thanks for the help
Leave it named update.zip do not unzip
downloaded the update_3.1 file from that thread.
renamed folder "update.zip", left compressed.
transferred to external SD card on phone.
placed SD card into tablet, booted up by holding the power & volume button.
take you into SD update cmd: recovery..
its looking for the folder..
then comes on the android logo with an exclamation point!
no good..
might it be the ROM? any suggestions..

If you downloaded it from the first link, the file needs to be decrypted first. I believe the second link on that page from megaupload is already decrypted. But that would be where the problem is.
And yes that is the latest build from Acer for the US!
I'm not sure what you mean.. consider me a noob at this.. never installed a ROM before.. encrypted or decrypted.. what would be what I need? couldn't find that second link you mentioned..

Right on! You know you can use clockwork mod to backup your system so it doesn't happen again.
You should use one of these versions, since your in the US.
4.010.07_COM_GEN2
4.010.08_COM_GEN2
4.010.11_COM_GEN2
4.010.13_COM_GEN2 (latest, not sure if it's posted anywhere yet)
The .40 version is not a US build.
interesting.. not sure what the difference is but can someone please post up 4.010.13_COM_GEN 2 & a how-to-install!

4.010.13 isn't a full rom like the one posted, merely an update.it can be obtained by simply checking for an update in "about device" in settings
