Despite Wifi, it's now confused on the time. This... is not good.

 

[MotF Bane]

Rebooting to update 4G radio.

 

[MotF Bane]

Update in progress. Although I don't really use the 4G radio, and when I do, it doesn't tend to give me problems.

[Krazy4Real]

what phone MotF?

 

[MotF Bane]

Rebooting phone. Downloading CM7.1.1.

 

[MotF Bane]

what phone MotF?

Thunderbolt.

 

[MotF Bane]

CM7.1.1 says to wipe cache... and data. That's going to be a bit of a pain.

 

[MotF Bane]

Still no signal at all. Shit.

 

[Krazy4Real]

you can just install something like titanium backup to backup apps and data so you don't lose anything.

 

[Krazy4Real]

>_<

 

[MotF Bane]

Booting into recovery. ROM is ready.

 

[MotF Bane]

you can just install something like titanium backup to backup apps and data so you don't lose anything.

I did, but I can't for the life of me figure out where Ti stores stuff, so I just copied the folders over as an sdcard. The file architecture inside Android baffles me greatly.

And yeah, I have nandroid on clockwork, so if everything goes to hell, I can do a full restore.

 

[MotF Bane]

Data wiping.

 

[MotF Bane]

I like how CMR had no no nonononono yes nonono, to make sure you can't fuck shit up without deliberate intent.

 

[MotF Bane]

I could lose my thousand texts or so, but really, despite my OCD tendencies to save shit, I know I'm not going to read them again.

 

[MotF Bane]

7.1.1 installing!

Oh, yeah, as for wiped stuff... I can restore all my pictures, my music, that sort of thing. The ringtones folder was saved. I might have to rebuild my contacts list and reassign the pictures, but I don't have a lot of contacts, so that's not a major issue.

 

[MotF Bane]

The bigger issue is definitely that the radio can't get anything at all, not even 1X.

 

[MotF Bane]

Wiped data. Wiped cache. Triple wiped Dalvik cache. Installed CM 7.1.1. Installed Google Apps. Here goes the system boot.

 

[MotF Bane]

If I'm lucky, it'll go right into CM 7.1.1, and the radios will start operating again.

 

[MotF Bane]

Not feeling very lucky, it's sitting at the white HTC screen for too long.

 

[MotF Bane]

Okay, it's jammed. Searching for solutions.

 

[MotF Bane]

ADB was able to boot to recovery.

Attempting to load latest backup (yesterday's). MD5 sums checking...

 

[MotF Bane]

I need to get back to the market, which may not be possible, since I have no signal. I need to get ROM Manager updated, which will then permit updating CMR, which will finish this all off.

 

[MotF Bane]

Well, let's see how long this restoration takes.

Whoa, it's 5:30. Lulz.
