How to install official HTC software updates via CWM? - HTC Pico (Explorer)

Hi.. i added in CWM for the Pico but kept on the original ROM. Now i have a pop up saying there is an update to the phone but i can use the normal way of updating it because it will get stuck at the title screen of CWM.
May i know how i can do it then?
Thanks

Guess you wouldn't be able to update without stock recovery.
If you can find the actual downloading file, it may help.
Anyway ~what update are they giving @ this time? Language support?

Skyrocket lost gallery app after root

I routed my skyrocket with the one click root. During setting it up afterwards I noticed the three gallery app was missing. I reinstalled the stock Rom to unroot. (Had problems but overcame them... different topic) Tried the superuser root method with the same results and noticed the buddy widget was also missing. Reloaded stock and haven't rooted since. Anyone have any ideas why I would lose apps and how to prevent it next time I try to root? Oh I did a Nandroid backup before the second root but the MD5 was corrupted when I tried to restore from it. Thanks inn advance for any help our suggestions.

fluke, I've never heard of this. U must have done something
The first time,I thought I may have accidentally deleted it, the second time I had just finished rooting and checked for the gallery right after that and it was missing again. It was there prior to rooting.

[/COLOR]How is it possible to accidentally delete the gallery? Rooting does not delete apps.....eother u flashed a rom with gallery missing or you deleted the gallery. And cant figure out how to get it back....so we need more info???? Be honest and elaborate please...
Flashing any rom. Would give u gallery back. Unless you found one
missing the gallery.
Use an alternate... I use QuickPic (free in Market.. or should I say PlayStore)... better and more reliable than Gallery.
Really. Thanks gpna check that put now.

Haha, Iv'e been doing the same. At first I thought It disappeared, but then realized it is not by the M's anymore since it starts with P now. Lol
Try rooting with the Odin method. Its in the dev section. Not is it only the best root method IMO, but it gets you familiar with Odin. Which is essential.

I think I Odin the first time and
Superoneclick the second. Haven't really had time (or desire) to try it again.

Drop this in system>app and see if it works for you
Thanks but I flashed back to the original Rom. I'll keep it in mind since I might try too riot it again this weekend.

Need help...no rom or os on my phone : \

Hey guys I kinda fubar my phone. Maybe one of you can help me. So I was messing with my phone today trying to install a different rom than cm10 and I wasn't thinking or something and I erased my phone. I don't have any roms for me to access on the phone and there is no os. The erase also got ride of my backup. My computer sees my phone but i can't see any files. I can boot to twrp and see the files but i'm guessing since i don't have the debug option clicked off I won't be able to move a rom to it. The phone tries to boot but since there is no OS it just get stuck at the white htc screen.
Is there any way to flash my phone using my computer?
is there a way to move a rom to the phone so i can load it using twrp?
sorry for being a noob. I've been a iphone user until this htc one x. I love it btw. I should have switched sooner. Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance. :crying:
Mount in twrp and drag a Rom over you may have to mount your sd
Try dragging and dropping the zip file from your computer to SD. Use TWRP to flash zip. If you can find a rom you like with Aroma installer it should make the process less painful and you will not have to flash boot image.
HTC One X
4.1.1
Viper XL 3.1.0
If your completely wiped, I imagine you did a factory reset in boot loader, which probably corrupted SD... If the above advice doesn't work, you'll have to mount in twrp, and format SD... Then drag ROM onto phone and flash... Good luck

How do you transfer files to your SD card though when it doesn't let you connect it to your PC as a storage device?
Am I missing something regarding the mount feature of TWRP?

You do not have to connect your phone as a storage device. You can connect your phone to the computer while it is in fastboot.
Your computer will still see it.
AT&T HTC OneX

ViperXL
Since your a new, flash the ViperXL JB ROM that one flashes the boot.IMG for you. It will be less of a pain that way. Good Luck

So this is exactly what I did...
I've followed the directions for the ViperOne S ROM word for word, and after I run the batch file for the boot flash and go to reboot, it tells me there is no OS every time. I wish this was as easy as it was for the original Galaxy S.....

Yes, every device is very different, and specific ROMs can have their own issues as well. Somebody here can easily give you advice that doesn't apply to your device, and cause you to brick. Just post in the correct forum section for your device. There is no reason to post here.

[Q] Storage Problem

I've essentially messed up my phone. I managed to root and install the paranoid android rom onto my HTC One S, but after this, I noticed that my phone thinks that it's supposed to have external storage. So, when I go into the camera app, it doesn't let me take pictures as there is no SD card. I can't connect my phone to the computer for some reason. But I am able to download apps from the Play Store. Please, please, please help.
Thanks in advance
Alex
PS: I installed the ROM ages ago, and I don't remember how I did it. I have clockwork recovery and fastboot. Thanks again.
Install goomanager then give it root access, and then hit menu and click install open recovery... Then do a backup of your Rom and try installing a new Rom and see if the error pops up again.

Thanks for the quick reply. Slight problem, I can't download anything because it automatically tries to download to the non-existent SD card.
It's on Google play, can't you download apps of the market too ?

I have the app, the problem is that when I try to Install OpenRecoveryScript, it has to download a recovery image which I tried, but it just says the download failed because of the SD card.
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/ville/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-ville.img
Drop that file where your fastboot file is located and go into your bootloader and type "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-Ville.img" then "fastboot reboot-bootloader" then go into your recovery and try reflashing the Rom. Twrp is far better then clockworks.

Testing Carbon Rom

Yo guys, back again this time with a carbon rom port. I don't have a Desire S so i'm gonna need yall to test if it boots.
I'm using devil-kin's kernel for cm10.2 and coderz's carbon rom for mytouch 4g.
http://d-h.st/tf2
Please tell me if it boots, thanks!
Good news.. it boots.
All the app icons, statusbar icons, everything is really really small, bit strange looking, cant take screenshot coz it says iv no sdcard and u need the sdcard to take pictures. The camera does work its just the sdcard problem, wifi n everything else seems to work fine. I had to restore nandroid coz im using my DS again for a while and need everything working.
So main issue - sdcard
After that id say its good to release

Thanks, those bugs should be very easy to fix. Hopefully saga owners will have a fully working carbon rom soon...
you should change build prop line "ro.sf.lcd_density=182" to ro.sf.lcd_density=240 thats unless u wanted everything to be tiny haha.

Boost ics stock rom?

Does anyone have Boost ics stock rom? My bootloader is unlocked and I have cwm but s-on. I don't have a way to get on a pc. Can I install through recovery with a nandroid or a .zip with s-on?
Sorry I didn't mean to post this in this thread. I'm not sure how to move it..
A moderator has to move it upon request. Yes, one is available on here, but you are S-On so you may have to pull the boot file from the backup, change name to boot.img then flash it using fastboot (which requires a pc)
However, I haven't been S-On in a long time so I could be wrong about the boot.img...
@russellvone could you elaborate for me.
Sent from my C525c using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks for the quick reply! I know flashing probably wouldn't work and I already tried to use a jb nandroid from my brothers phone which didn't work which is why I was wondering if a stock ics unrooted would work
I'm not real sure what happened. All I did was do factory reset in cwm and now its stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant
Haha, that's simple, when you did a factory reset in CWM you formatted your partitions. Your boot.img is still intact but you have nothing on your data, system, etc so there is nothing to load which is why you are not getting past the screen. Only do a factory reset in a custom recovery when like flashing a Rom for example. Which version OS were you on originally before you wiped your phone out ....

I don't have an ICS backup, but I know @russellvone does. He keeps stuff like this on hand for just a situation like this one. However, you should only need to flash the system.img and be good after that. I recommend doing an OTA update in your settings once you get your device back up and going. We will be receiving 4.2.2 with Sense 5 soon.
Anyways, I tagged him as you can see. Just visit back here periodically to see if he replied back. He will, I guarantee you that. He will help you restore your device
Sent from my C525c using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Okay, thanks for the help! Much appreciated!!! Would I have to flash the system.img with fastboot or would it be in a nandroid?
You will use your custom recovery. He will explain the steps. .

You can use a JB backup but you will need the firmware.zip that comes in the JB OTA to flash in rebootRUU to complete the process on your device.
I sent a pm to russellvone about the situation so when he responds he should already be good to go to help you out.

Lol this stuff is so confusing. I'm still a noob on this phone haha. I wish there was something like mobile odin for HTC devices
Also, go S-Off so next time if something goes wrong like this you won't need a PC (unless it is something serious lol).

Yeah I've been checking this off and on. You guys are life savers!! Thanks alot!
Your boot.img is still intact so flashing that Rom should get you booted up just fine. If for any reason you get stuck on the HTC screen then you will need to extract the boot.img and flash it with fastboot (however that shouldn't be necessary since you are still on stock boot.img for ICS)

Okay gotcha. Seriously though thanks for all the help lol. I know this is probably getting annoying with all the questions
Everyone on XDA is a noob. Don't care what their skills are. Skills just mean they have more knowledge and experience in one area but it doesnt mean they know everything. So no worries with the questions. Ask away when need to. Though, try to post in the right location next time lol
