[Q] HTC Sync Reinstall error 1152

I unistalled HTC sync and when I try to reinstall I get the message "1152: Error extracting C:\Users\Dada\AppData\Local\Temp\{1B4A9E0 PC Suite.msi to the temporary location" (the #'s and characters after temp are always different)
Anyway I've tried:
1) Running the installer as administrator just in case.
2) Right clicking the install file and installing it using the 'troubleshoot compatibility' option. Same error code.
3) Searching for any remaining files using windows search for 'htc' yet no results.
4) Searched other threads and heard repairing the file or deleting it will fix the problem yet I can't find the above folder, specifically looking in the 'dada' folder for the 'appdata' folder, not there. Then searching using windows search for 'appdata' yet no results found
I am using Windows 7 64-bit and HTC sync 2.0.40. My user account "Dada" is set as the administrator. Using a rooted EVO4g with freshevo 3.4.0.1(not that my phone should matter). Rooted perfectly with this method, since been outdated but not when I rooted. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765496
HTC sync and the root worked fine the first time, so I know its compatible with my computer. Something must have happened when I uninstalled it using uninstall programs under control panel.
Obvioulsy I'm not a computer programmer, can anyone figure this out. Thanks.

1152 HTC Error FIXED!!!
I encountered the exact same problem w/ my new HTC Aria when trying to install the HTCSync.exe file. I went to CNet and downloaded a free registry cleaner. Once downloaded, run a 'FULL SCAN' then click on the 'FIX ERRORS' tab for them to be repaired. Once they're repaired, goto HTC, then whichever support area depending on country and select your phone type and GO' ,to the right of the drop-down,. Next, open the 'DOWNLOADS' tab and enter your Serial number from your HTC phone and submit. Below your Serial number a 'DOWNLOAD' will be available. Click it, either open or save the file. Once downloaded, try again reloading the HTCSync.exe file snd it should resolve all your problems. G'day

All about the registry cleaner
Worked like a charm. Thanks.
What's frustrating is before I even posted the original question I tried using a registry cleaner and then reinstalling htc sync. I used C Cleaner. The registry cleaner you recommended was more in depth and obviously worked better.
Eusing free registry cleaner
download.cnet.com/.../3000-2094_4-10521691.html
Thanks again,
Kutt

I had the same problem, thanks
But if like me--doing the Eusing registry didn't help try to scan registry in "safe mode" and repair. Then, shut down and restart normally. Try to download HTC Sync
again(doesn't matter if you use the previous installation) and it should work. Cheers

[Q] Best regards to greatest wizards; any idea for dead rooted Garmin Asus A50 ?

Hi all you wizards,
I had this now brick rooted and jiggling around it with uninstalling some preinstalled apps, but when I attempted to replace some fonts which was my main goal, it turned out that it was not really rooted!!! probably the rooting method and app was malicious. Then none of the apps could fully root it. Z4root followed by Superoneclick and Universalandroot have been tried, no chance but slow and unstable device. finally I decided to master reset. After this, a strange virus like fake warning sticks to the screen saying the battery cover is open and asking to restart! when I really open the cover another warning comes up that battery cover removed. phone is working in background. It responds to USB connection, even detects an update of ROM I copied to solve the problem but no chance.
Has anybody any idea to get it back to life by using PC as there is no direct interactions with the phone coz of the virus?
basically I prefer to get rid of the virus through SDK and ADB if possible although I am a mushroom and Dono how.
Is it possible to wipe off some infected data or I have to wash out all the ROM and install a new one?
I have another phone handy exactly the same thing, should I copy all data from other one to this one or the update version of original ROM would work?
it is Garmin Asus A50 nuvifone with built in full GPS and navigator; 256 ROM, 256 RAM, 600 MHtz CPU, ARMv6, android 2.1 update 1
Thanks so much in advance for any participation even your experiences without useful result

here is some more information about the matter;
I needed to install some fonts for other languages which are not supported by android
So I tried to use information and files to get my device rooted and replace some fonts in system/fonts directory and some files in system/lib directory to use other languages in my android.
1- I started with Z4root , I downloaded through device and installed it, and I uninstalled my antivirus as it always said it is not safe, so I activated USB debugging and then permanent root and I had the super user. I installed some apps and used them to uninstall some preinstalled app and similar issues. When I tried to replace fonts and files, my file explorer with root ability, it said I don’t have enough authorization or something to access the file, I tried more root file explorer but same result, even a root checker said my device is not rooted!
2- Then I tried UniversalAndroot-1.6.2-beta5. Again I downloaded it through my device browser but it could not help as it said fails! I thought it is because of Z4root so I uninstalled Z4root but failed to root again.
3- I wanted to use pc method and root my phone by PC, even though this method was for android ginger bread and not my brand but as much as tried, my device did not show a recovery mode in start up by pressing power button and volume key but when I pressed middle key of arrow keys went to safe mode. so I ignored it.
4- Finally I downloaded the oneclick app through my device from the net. It was a zip file with so many files and super user, I just installed superuser but not helpful to replace font, then uninstalled.
5- Again installed Z4root but my phone was freezing and unstable so decided to master reset to factory setting. I did it once but after reset, nothing changed so I did it again. This time a warning sticks on the screen says;
” close the battery cover, and restart the device to complete first time set up.”
and asks for restart.
There should be something wrong as when I really open the battery cover, another warning comes up and says; battery cover removed!
Phone is working in background, even I copied a factory update of my ROM and its been detected but the crazy warning does not let to do anything but restart!
Now I need help to show me how I can use my PC to reset my device as upon a usb connection it asks for interaction and lets me to work via usb cable, and then how I can go to recovery mode in start up?
Otherwise it is a brick, lol

it does not let me to do any interaction cause of the crazy warning. it asks for restart, thats all I can do, or other warnings like asking to do update or usb connection option or battery cover removed, but no more. it means I can not activate usb debugging if needed or follow update process through mobile UI. besides in this kind of phone there is no recovery mode but just something like "USB polling mode" and "safe mode." the warning is in safe mode too and I dono how to use "USB polling mode".
however the only option is ADB, and I do not have an backup of the rom but another simillar phone to make copy or the update file, if possible to copy them via ADB which I am dono how; like which commands and where to copy them?

found this but dont know how to adb .
but for sure on giving a missed call and following the idea in link u can use the phone but annoying error wont go away

I have the same problem but I cannot receive calls
Hello
A couple days ago I got a Garminfone from a friend, I use it mostly as a GPS only, because T-Mobile does not have any coverage in my country and I don't have the unlock code.
Yesterday I wanted to make a hard reset to start over, holding the D-pad left while powering on the phone, **WIPE USERDATA** appeared on the screen.
Everything was fine until it restarted, after the restart it showed the following warning: "Close the battery cover, and restart the device to complete first-time setup", the battery cover is closed and it does not let me do anything, the official ROM update does not install and If I do another hard reset the error persist and the phone does not make or receive calls.
Before this issue I got it rooted using z4root
Is it there anyway to update the device without using the update launcher from the phone?, or reinstall the 2.1 update using the usb cable via command prompt or any tool?.
I just want to get rid of this error and keep using the device as a regular GPS
Anyone can help?
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

[Q] Issues updating from Mango 7712 to 7720, help greatly appreciated

So I have a Samsung Focus running Mango 7712. I had no issues updating to that, no 'walshed' phone or whatever it's called. I have been trying and looking for solutions for 3 days now on how to update to Mango 7720 but I'm stuck now and nothing seems to work, so I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this.
I have:
1. All the proper drivers installed I'm pretty sure
2. Zune 4.08.2134
3. The 7720.rar and everything extracted directly and properly to the C: drive. I even uninstalled the update tool I had and installed the one that was located in the 7720.rar folder.
So here's my issue:
When I go to run the .bat file as an administrator, everything starts fine, transfers the updates, perfect...except when it gets to "restarting phone". That's when the problem occurs. I feel like it hangs on the 'Goodbye' screen too long, and THEN the command prompt just quits...a few seconds later the phone finally restarts and is stuck on the screen that says to plug it into the computer. So I have to pull battery and restart...obviously with 7712 still on there
I have tried to clear up more space on the phone ( I have 8.0GB free), I have tried unplugging and plugging the USB back in, just trying to restart the .bat file while it's stuck on that screen (to no avail), and I have tried 'pausing' the process in the command prompt until the phone gets back up to the connect to PC screen- but then when I resume the command...it just auto closes.
PLEASE someone help...I'm tired and can't find any solutions
Thanks to any replies in advance.....

I had the same issue. Instead of right-click, Run As Admin, try running the .bat by double-clicking. It still took quite a while for my Focus to reboot, but it finally restarted before the tool timed out.
Also, make absolutely sure all folders are in the C:\ drive. When I first extracted 7720.rar to the C:\ drive, it actually put everything into C:\MANGO. So I had to move it all to C:\ before anything would work.
Hope that helps.

ISVTo7720.bat Hangs on restarting phase/Error 801812c1 after run
This was the most common Error listed and had many solutions which seemed to work sporadically.
1. Do what @DavePerman said, and use the pause command so freeze the cmd command until phone reaches flashing phase.
2. Execute ISVTo7720.bat in a standalone CMD instead of through Windows Explorer. Do this by Run(open as Admin)>cmd>cd Mango>cd RCToRTM>ISVTo7720.bat
3. Remove all music from the device to free up 6+ gigs of memory.
4. Have at least 12 gigs of hard drive space on your computer. Some clam they needed 20
5. press the off button on the phone to force the phone into its flashing screen. (some say they pressed the button, some say they held it down until the screen turned off)
5. The most extreme, and last resort for this problem is to reset your phone through its settings menu. You will lose all information on the phone. (remember your contacts and apps are all in the cloud, so they can be recovered. Music/pictures/videos can be re-synced if backed up before hand.)

nothing seems to work

[Q] New Airpad 7P Can it be rooted ?

Hi Im kinda new here though I have rooted a few phones using directions from XDA Ive always found any help I needed here. I just purchased 2 of the X10 7P Airpads. These airpads were advertised as having Android Gingerbread v 2.3.4 and it had Android Marketplace. Well unfortunately it has been modded to not include the ability to register your google account so you cant use the Android Market. The Account & Sync section under settings is completely missing. I copied the android marketplace apk file from another device and installed it, but when I try to use it - it ask me if I want to add my google account so I click yes and it just jumps to the tablets homepage. I am forced to use Amazon marketplace and it sucks! Ive searched high and low to find out if I can root the tablet or something so I can get access to the regular android marketplace. I searched on here and cant find anything as of yet. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I dont even know if I posted this in the right place - so any help will be greatly appreciated. Bad thing is I bought these primarily for the marketplace and now cant use it.

root the airpad 7p
I was able root my airpad 7p following these instructions
I guess due to policy even though I have been a memeber since 2008, I can't post the links but if you go to my blog

STEP 1 Download the Firmware:
STEP 2 Download and install LiveSuitPack
Guide:
Prepare the files
1. Extract the firmware so you can see the image named “MOMO9C-4-Kevin”
2. Install LiveSuitPack 1.07
2. After running the exe go to the folder and run the application (LiveSuit.exe approx. 2mb)
3. Browse to the folder where the image MOMO9C-4-Kevin
4. The tablet should be off
Prepare the Momo9
5. Whilst keep volume+ button pressed, plug it in via USB
6. Keep pressing the volume+ button and also press the power button time for 10 times
7. After several presses on the power button there will be a “sound” it connects as Windows recognises new USB hardware
8. Windows 7 will install drivers automatically, in Windows XP you need to point windows to the directory where you extracted software
9. When all the drivers are installed, the firmware will start to install automatically
Finishing the Installation
10. There will be no sign of loading on the Momo9 – don’t worry
11. On the PC, LiveSuit shows a bar graph – it takes about 2 mins to go onto the Momo9
12. After the yellow bar on Livesuite is completed action (about 2 mins) nothing happens.
13. You will see an exclamation mark (using Windows 7) with no text. Click OK.
14. Then wait a few seconds. Unplug the momo9 from the USB. You will see a green battery symbol. Ignore it. Restart the tablet manually (as normal using the on/off button).
15. After this, you will be given two options, click start using android wizard (or something similar).
Everything should be included (Market, Navigation, Maps etc) Enjoy it!

Anyone else try one of these airpads and root it?

[Q] SE Xperia Mini X10 - Serious issue - appless phone

Hello guys!
This is the first time I'm ever asking for an advice online so don't judge me too hard, I'm out of options, been googling for hours.
I have SE Xperia X10 mini (not pro). A while ago I rooted it and removed some annoying system apps. Removed the apps that were labeled as safe to remove by people who have done this before. As a result market stopped working, been trying to fix it but nothing seemed to help. Last option was a factory reset. Did that. Now I have a phone with no apps, cant access web, don't have a file manager, no music player, no nothing And market is still not working.
Only good thing is that now market is just stuck in "Starting download" position as before it had this annoying error message popping up.
I'm wondering is there a way for me to reinstall the phone completely with market not working and not having a file manager either?
Thanks in advance
P.S. I use ubuntu, but will figure out how to run win files soon. BTW might this thing with adb.exe + usb debugging help me install apps through USB, so I can atleast install file manager and then it would be easier to figure out what to do next?

Have you tried fixing with Sony PC Companion? I had a similar problem where I deleted some things I shouldn't have and PC Companion fixed it for me.

did you use sd-ext? because i have got the same problem which is i have to do partition again to ext3
Market is stuck whenever i try to download multiply files, but it was solved once it's upgraded to Play Store
and yes you can install applications via USB, just be sure to activate USB Debugging in Development menu, there is an windows application that allow mass apk installation, just search it

Thanks guys for your responses. School is intense now but once I'm done with all that workload I'll get to fixing my phone You really calmed me down by confirming that it is possible to install apps via usb Really much thanks, from this point on I'll manage
