Sleeps?
Very nice script, but why did you add all those sleeps? At least make them 0.1 s or less, it takes ages to get started...
Also, you could use the result of the read calls to do yes/no confirmation in certain areas.
Thanks for posting!

Wow this is great. So will this enable me to put a generic rom onto a branded Desire, without rooting?
Surely its not that easy lol

Just make a goldcard (search Google) and then run the scriptand you will get rid of all the rubbish your network put on.
I added all the sleeps in so that noobs would actually read all of the info and warnings.

This is great! Too late for me but this will help others a bunch. Thanks

Are you sure you can take any RUU and just use this to flash to a Hero??? I'm not exactly sure it's that easy......

Yeah, you run the ruu in wine and then the script finds the zip and flashes it.

I'm just not following..... What if we took a 2.2 RUU for the EVO? Wouldn't this be the holy grail of porting ROMs???? That's what I'm getting at. It would almost have to be a Hero RUU

The RUU has to be compatible with the phone you are using. Putting an Evo RUU on a Hero would cause it not to boot.

No, he should have said that. You're either misreading it or taking it out of context.
He said "Works with any device" not "Works with any RUU"
Someone with an Evo could use this to flash an Evo RUU, someone with a Nexus could use it to flash a Nexus RUU.

Great! thanks
This is tool I was waiting/loooking for a loooong time ago, going to try it now

No idea if this thread is still active, but I've got an error...
chmod: cannot access `scripts/cptoworkingdir.sh': No such file or directory
It appears right at the top of the Terminal when I first start '1extractrom.sh'
I'm on Fedora 15.

ummmm you're not even in America. So why would you have a T-Mo Sensation 4G anyway? Maybe this is Troll bait.

No one cares anymore. It's easy to fake this statement.
I have Sensation 4G T-Mobile, I did revolutionary's S-OFF, then installed the RUU to stock T-Mobile, and it went back to look like a normal Bootloader with S-OFF still in place.
So I repeat, no one cares.

You should ask this in the questions and answers forum.
It will look like a switched off phone and it won't start.
No, you won't affect the radio installing a new ROM.

RUU (or Shipped ROM whichever you prefer) will change all your system components (bootloader, radio, kernel, system, data, etc.) The custom ROM will change only the ReadOnlyMemory /system/ and kernel. Some files may be flashed on /data - it depends on the developer...
Edit: this thread was suggested for move to the Desire S Q&A section

Go outside.... Find a brick..... Look closely cause that's your phone after the radio brick.

If I choose wrong RUU, it can be happened ??? it's run eMMC chip from SAMSUNG.

What does your phone look like now when you switch it on? E.g. stuck on white HTC screen with 'quietly brilliant', stuck on white HTC screen without 'quietly brilliant', black HTC screen.. etc. Can you access the boot loader (e.g. take battery out, replace, press volume down key and power key TOGETHER)?

June 4th Update

So what does the June 4th update mean for me. Will Trickdroid 3.0 be updated then? Should I wait to flash then?

Once updates come out usually devs will work in putting the changes into their roms.
I'm personally waiting to flash a rom til after this update

4.0.4 !!! this is good

I doubt this is 4.0.4... I think there might be a few radio fixes and tweaks but nothing indicates a newer ics version. I guess we'll find out on the 4th.

but it´s only for T-Mobile´s phones i hope european users can install that OTA quickly i feel with 1.78 i have less network than 1.53..

I still see nothing that indicates an update to 4.0.4. The release mentions 4.0.3 though.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA

Yea, the note says it is still 4.0.3. Is there anything even worth while in 4.0.4 that it is so important other than a number upgrade? Going back the the OP, yes, ROMs like TrickDroid will update the base to the latest. It is for T-MobUS, but I'm sure our boys across the pond will get soon. I'm sure EU ROMs like LeeDroid will update as well as soon as the update is released on the 4th.

+1 - same here, signal is almost useless indoors. Outdoors a lot of fluctuations!

I forget the specifics, but yes, 4.0.4 brings a significant number of improvements, 100+, but nothing you'd notice UI wise. They're all just tweaks to the existing code.
