VISIONary is not showing up in the Market - should it be?

As to the version from the D/L link on this thread - copy it to SD card root and run it from there? Or what?

EDIT - I hadn't even looked at the file when I posted the above, didn't realise it was an apk, sorry.

For sale: 1 x 64Gb 3G iPad, 1 x HTC Hero (G2) and 1 x HTC Desire HD. PM me if interested

Sorry guy´s for the stupid question... but how to flash??
Flash via "rename to update.zip and using recovery", or how?

Thanks!

I wish I had read this  first - I installed the + then tried to permaroot without uninstalling old one.
It restarted and then I followed your process. Visionary+ says its rooted but no root apps will run. Also cant unroot via app as it does nothing.

Any help please?

Thanks

permroot seems to work fine but titanium backup refuses to start now :rolleyes:

EDIT:
I see, I also assumed the app was the same (visionary, not visionary+), just installed it and used permroot..
So far I tried to unroot, uninstalled visionary+, disabled temproot on boot in visionary, uninstalled it, reinstalled visionary+... each step with a reboot in between.

Now i'm stuck with visionary+ stating that I can't use temproot because i must be rooted, permroot doesn't do anything, same for unroot. TitaniumBackup now starts again, but what's it's use with no root? :&

Hi paul,
           how the hell do you solve the solvemedia capchas? .
I've been sat here for the last two hours trying to solve one to download r12.
Either I've gone blond in the last two hours or I am having a HUGE BRAIN FART !!

Of all the things i've lost, I miss my mind the most!

I have exactly the same problem.  Uninstalling and reinstalling Visionary+ doesn't help, neither does rebooting.

Hopefully someone has a solution - so near and yet so far...

You will have to flash the ruu (check on xda) and then it will work. It will reset your phone back to factory state though!

I installed VISIONary (I think r11) about a week ago on my DHD.

Then, yesterday, suddenly I had no root privileges and could not find the program in my installed app list. Now, it is back in the list and I have temp root again.

I would like to upgrade to r12, but when I download and try to install, I get the "problem parsing the file" error.

Does anyone know what this means, and what I can do to get around it? I get it with both r12 and if I attempt to install r11.

I am not very happy about uninstalling r11, as I do not feel sure that I can re-install it. :rolleyes:

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kingkeld.

Ridiculous as it is, do not press enter after typing the captcha, instead press download with your mouse! :rolleyes:

I don't see where your problem is, just downloaded r11 using the enter key on the captcha. Still stuck with the rooted/actually not rooted problem... I'm really not in the mood of resetting right now, especially since I can't even do backups without root ;(
Maybe there will be a working solution that doesn't include factory reset.
