[HOWTO] Say bye bye to sticky bit fastboot ^^ - General Questions and Answers

I figured i would post this thread on how to get rid of sticky bit fastboot So far this should work on any android powered phone..
So i was searching around and couldnt find actual answers on how to get rid of that annoying ass sticky bit factory fastboot menu when phone powers up. So i decided to take matter in my own hands and learn a little bit about adb and fastboot commands etc.. Typed in some commands in a certain order and BOOM sticky bit no longer gets in the f-ing way ^^ this should work on any android powered phone seeing how it doesnt go to any specific phone. So far i learned that it works on the xpirea (how ever you spell it) and the droid razr m consumer and dev edition. so here we go.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE USB DEBUGGING ENABLED
Files to download:
Android.zip: http://www.mediafire...0imf9xv2uicwkbh
Latest usb drivers: http://www.motorola....motodev_lp.html
STEPS
1. Power up your phone completely.
2. extract the folder in the android.zip file to your local disk. just drag the folder to local C: or whatever your main HD is
3. hold left shift and right click on the folder and click on pen command window here"
4. plug in your phone if you havnt done so already
5. in the command window type: adb devices ( this makes sure your phone is connected and it'll show its serial number under List of devices attached.
6. once it shows the serial number type in these commands ( these are in order)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot erase userdata

[Q] help me!!! I can't boot my htc Desire S (G12),even the hboot.

Next Sunday,I was downgrading the hboot(from 7.00 to 1.13,I want to install RUU in my mobile phone) by this course:
Enter there command in the cmd.exe:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img :*maybe this backup.img can solve this problem.but how can I do?*
dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 :*the hboot.img is a hboot_7.96 image*
reboot bootloader
:waiting for reboot
fastboot flash hboot hboot_1.13.0000.img :*when I run this command,a power failure has happened,the computer has shutdown*
And after I rebooted my computer.my mobile phone's screen is went out.I can't boot my mobile phone anymore.No matter how I press [power key], the screen is still dark !!!
Luckly,when I reconnect the USB cable,the power light was bright.And computer has identific my mobile phone.
The adb command is disabled.And I have tried some fastboot command.These are some result:
fastboot devices

*why my devices became #00000000000*
fastboot getvar all
*the program is stop,but never exit.*
*but why it is all in messy code except version&version-baseband&imei*
fastboot flash hboot hboot_1.13.0000.img
*I would retry this command.buy I failed....*
*why sending OK,But writing FAILED?*
*and I have tried write the hboot 0.98(the hboot_0.98.0002_0e35ea5b_0318.img in RUU) in.but it FAILED ,too!*
fastboot erase HBOOT
*someone tell me to erase it before writing it in,but I found I can't do it*
fastboot reboot & fastboot reboot-bootloader
*as like very normal,but the screen never bright*
*and we also tried the fastboot oem command,maybe it is the only way to repair my smart phone*
But when I disconnect between the phone and computer,the power light never put out,why?
Who can help me to save my mobile phone?
Don't tell me the hardware has broken down.I will crazy,because there is no one in our city can repair it !!!
if you have any idea ,please send a email to me.my email is [email protected] ,thank you!!!
Congratulations you have destroyed your bootloader. There is no hboot for Desire S with number 1.13
Our versions are 0.98.x, 6.98.x, 2.0x.x and 7.0x.x
So you have flashed one that belongs to other device and destroyed your system.
I guess your hardware is fine, but now only JTAG can revive your phone as far as I know.
Of course you can still try to download and flash a proper hboot image but I doubt it will succeed

[Completed] Help with nextbook nx868qw8g

Hello everybody,
want to ask your advice in re: following issue
I am going to use nextbook NX868QW8G tablet as an embedded advertisement solution ie it should start when external power gets plugged in. I can find a normal tech desc of this model in the internet even on the official site.
It have almost the same look&hardware as NX785QC8G availabe at wallmart but have slightly another cpu mtk8382 and embedded 3g modem which was the decisive factor since we need tablets to be updated remotely.
Here are system settings:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have done the following:
1) rooted device via cydia impactor - root check apps from gplay are saying its rooted now + it has auto instaled chainfire SU to the tablet
2) run adb reboot-bootloader
3) run fastboot oem unlock
4) run fastboot oem off-mode-charge 0
I have tried doing it manually and through cydia impactor but in both cases the command thread for #3 and #4 seems to be in an infinite sleep - just displays "..." in command line shell and cydia impactor simply gets frozen for a couple of minutes then throws timeout exception.
I think its waiting my input after #3 but the screen remains black and it does nothing when I press on vol up/down/power buttons. It displays "OK [X sec]" when I call fastboot reboot from another shell window
In regards to the adb drivers and etc - device is visible through both 'adb devices' and 'fastboot devices' commands. Real mystery...
Please advice in which direction to seach and digg.
Any help will be highly appreciated,
Max

As long as a phone powers on it's NOT hardbricked, but softbricked if Android doesn't get properly started.
even if it is soft bricked i am not able to get into recovery mode this was showing:
Re-flash phone's STOCK ROM.
damn, i am not able to get into fastboot dude that's what it is all about if i would be able to get into fastboot i would have flashed my phone long time ago.when i ty to get into fastboot android sign with yellow helmet appears.
My zenfone 4 problems:
access to droidboot or recovery (stuck at android icon with a yellow helmet), so i cant flash a rom or firmware.
Tried different combo keys, but always stuck with that android icon.
You typically re-flash a STOCK ROM by means of ADB Sideload method.
ook so for using adb sideload method u need to get into droid boot what i am saying it i am not able to get into droid boot mode and everytime i try an android sign with yellow helmet appears.
You are absolutely WRONG.
What you have to do is running ADB commands as follow
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot sideload
adb sideload <FULL_PATH_TO_STOCK_ROM_ZIP_FILE_ON_PC_HERE>
i am noob please can u tell me the steps elaborately OKAY,
NOW I HAVE GOT IT BUT IS NOT SOWING ANY DEVIICES I HAVE CONNECTED MY MOBILE SEE:
Then you obviously never have enabled USB Debugging on phone what is prerequisite to run ADB commands.

Do you want to be able to modify your system partition(including rooting the device) at some point in the future? If so, check the box beside the "never show this screen during boot again" then just swipe the slider at the bottom to allow modifications in the future.
Or
If you do not plan to modify your system partition in any kind of way, tap the "keep read only" button.
This happened to me multiple times, for me it was an error with flashing Treble GSI from google, tho i fixed it by going in fastboot mode/bootloader and on my PC to flash boot, lk, lk2, recovery (official one) and then reboot my phone, but you will delete the TWRP Recovery just so you know.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NOTE: I don't know if this will work for you and might brick your device if you don't use correct ROM files...
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Also if it then boots into Fastboot mode than you can try flashing all files (It will factory reset your phone)
You have to install adb and fastboot on your PC
Commands:
cd *the path to adb and fastboot*
fastboot devices
fastboot flash *what you wanna flash* *filename of the file that you wanna flash*
For Example if you wanna flash boot it will be like ( fastboot flash boot boot.img ) if the filename is with .bin wich most new devices use it will be fastboot flash boot boot.bin
Hope that this helps

How To Guide How To: Region Switch on Nord2T

Hello again everyone. This is a quick guide on how to change Regional firmware on our Nord2T device (ie going from CPH2399 to CPH2401)
I cannot be responsible if you brick your device. Your phone, your choices, your responsibility!​
Before we get started I would recommend unlocking the bootloader (unsure if this is a necessity but my device was unlocked at the time of trying so I would recommend users do the same)
1 - Unlock the bootloader (if you haven't done it already...beware that this will erase all of your user data). To do so, you must:
Enable developer options
Enable the "OEM unlocking" option
Enable USB debugging
Have both adb and fastboot, from SDK Platform Tools available on your PC
Connect your phone to your PC using the USB cable and run the following commands:
Code:
adb devices
(just to make sure that your phone is, in fact, recognized by your PC and that you're able to run adb commands)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
(so your phone will reboot into fastboot mode)
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
(device should now unlock)
Code:
fastboot reboot
(device reboots with an unlocked bootloader and data partition wiped)
2 - Download and Install Fastboot Enhance from HERE
3 - Download the IND rollback package from HERE
4 - Extract the rollback package zip to your PC (the only file you need once it is unzipped is payload.bin)
5 - Connect your device back to PC and reboot to fastboot yet again.
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
6 - Once in fastbootd open Fastboot Enhance on PC and you should see your device in the "Fastboot Visualization" tab.
Make sure to click on "Ignore unknown partitions" on the bottom of the screen. Then click on the "partitions" option and under partitions and delete every file that ends with "cow" refer to screenshot, just select and delete.

}
7. Click on "Flash payload.bin" and browse for the payload.bin you extracted earlier.
8. Once flashed you can reboot (recommended to either factory reset from settings after the device restarts or wipe data in fastboot for a smoother experience.
This is only tested on a Global device using firmware version CPH2399_11_A.17 and flashing IND CPH2401_11_A.17 ROLLBACK PACKAGE!!
Subsequent updates will now be on the IND branch for your device also.
Hope this helps someone out!
If anyone has any questions/input/recommendations please feel free to discuss below and any issues we will help to resolve them.
Have a good day peeps
