I bought the black tie from best buy and I want to send in my phone for repair because my power button doesn't do anything, but first......... Can someone please tell me how I can revert to stock settings as in having a locked boot loader and a stock build........I currently have cm7 (the old unfinished one since it broke like 4 months ago)
I just decided I cant take it anymore since sometimes the anyunlock app makes my phone unlock in my pocket and stays on all day and drains the battery super fast!
please help me with my dilemma! :C
no replies :/

maybe different model?
Use fastboot from your PC. Everything is controlled from CMD Prompt. Look at Pete's tutorial. Just need to setup the drivers. Check the stickies.

If ur bootloader is unlocked, switch off the fon, connect the phone to computer by pressing both volume keys and connect the using data cable. Ur fon wil enter into download mode. So u can flash rom and all with odin.

can't find anything that helps on the internet :/
sup ppl i come from the evo 3d forums and just bought this phone today. but the volume rocker is bad, so i have to request.
1) how do i fix the volume rocker.
2) and how can i get it to boot so i find out what hboot the phone has so i can root this bad boy.
thanks in advance
1) what's wrong with the volume rocker? did you buy it second hand? If not why not return it and get it replaced if its broken?
2) to boot into boatloader is volume down plus power button, but hboot versions don't matter on our phone. Its all rootable currently
The down button doesn't work I need to replace it. I've been watching YouTube videos on how to do this. But still need help on what I need to do. I just bought the phone today second hand for 75 bucks

Ace hack kit comes with a manual. Open up the folder and click on the "effen manual" and read it entirely. It tells you everything you need to do to make everything work. Make sure your USB drivers are current. Most people have USB issues that can be fixed by merely updating the drivers. It tells you in the manual how to do that as well.

Follow all the prerequisites and read everything down to the last section called FAQs. There is important information throughout the whole thing which attn1 has made this way so that you see the answer to all the questions people ask over and over. I would be going against the wishes of the dev if I told you any more than this. It really is easy though once you soak in all the info. Good luck. You can do it.
Yup reread everything tried downgrading that went bad also. I'll just I've rooted many phones b4 this is the only one giving me trouble ill just sell it.

You should probably stay away from buying damaged used phones. The inspire is incredibley simple to root unless its damaged.
R u serious. I hate the dev lol sry man I was just pissed I've tried like 10 times and even tried that other method lol I got it now lol

I know you succeeded in rooting your phone, but there is a free app from the market called Quick Boot, which requires root, but allows you to reboot into recovery, bootloader, simply reboot, and power off. It may help you down the road.

No it was that dam code I was using the one on the zip lol I feel mad and dumb at the same time haha. So all I need is a T-Mobile sim card right. Will I have to unroot the phone to set up a T-Mobile account or an at&t account?
Thanks man but does it require the up nd down volume buttons. I'm planning on fixing it maybe next week.

I'm not completely sure if an Att phone will just work on a tmobile network. It would be ideal to activate it on Att or if you already have Att just pop in your sim card. If you are already on tmo, you could pop in your sim in and see if it works. I'm not sure if they need to be unlocked even with custom roms. Does anyone else know the answer to this?
Update: the volume button thing could be an issue if you ever soft brick your phone so you might want to get that fixed asap. It's the only way to fix a softbrick is through hboot.
I was on the xda app and my phone just turned off and now it won't turn back on.
It won't go into download mode or recovery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
I'm stock 2.3.5 rooted

I don't think any of romracer's "stockish" kernels have uv/oc patching.
In that case. That sucks. Use your warranty. Your phone killed itself. What a shame
This happened to me as well. I was browsing the web and the phone just died and wouldn't show any signs of life. Tried everything including buying the Samsung Jtag dongle. I got it replaced but now am really concerned about rooting it and loading a new rom. I was on Sky ICS 6.35.

Trying to flash just the stock ICS recovery? I didn't even know you could do that without flashing the stock ICS ROM as well. Assuming you actually can and that's not what bricked you, I'd love to keep that piece of information in my back pocket for future applications.

This is exactly why I never use goo manager or ROM manager to flash any thing or download any thing to many times have I read about ppl bricking because of these apps.
Did the same thing to mine, except I was downloading a recovery for another phone. Wasn't going to flash it off course, but GOO did it automatically. Hard bricked my phone just like yours. If it is still under warranty take it to AT&T store. They'll replace it for free. Don't worry, they won't be able to flash it back to stock or get it to boot either. Just play dumb and say you tried to start it up after charging and it just wouldn't turn on. I was in and out with a new skyrocket in less than 20 minutes
