I made a zip to relock the bootloader in ICS for those who have a lot of reboots related to 3G. The zip installs ICS B952 original bootloader, stock recovery and stock boot.img, so it only works for roms based on ICS stock (like Lightning, slim, Infusion, Stock Plus, etc) and you won't be able to use overclock. It doesn't work for CyanogenMod roms because of the boot.img, so DO NOT install this in CyanogenMod roms or your phone won't boot.


INSTRUCTIONS: Download the zip, copy it to your sdcard, reboot to recovery, install the zip and reboot your phone.

NOTE: it's probably better to use GB baseband and bootloader instead of locking ICS bootloader. It's very easy to do, look here: http://www.modaco.co...on-gb-baseband/

Thanks for always sharing the good stuff!

Great stuff, jsevi83. You seem to be on a roll at the moment.

[jsevi83]

An alternative to avoid reboots would be to use GB baseband and bootloader. Check this out:   http://www.modaco.co...on-gb-baseband/

Top stuff. Good job!

Jsevi is awesome

It's a shame it can't be used on the CM ROMs, those are the only ROMs I actually get random reboots on

It's very infrequent though, good job

Around 50 users downloaded this, many of them tried it and you are the first one with this problem. Did you only install this zip in recovery, or also something else?

When you say "flashing roms" you mean update.app? Pink screen happens when the phone can't find any update.app in the sdcard. Anyway, I'm glad you solved it.

Kepps comming up all the time..can't use the phone this way..

[dalyer]

I would always use this CWM:

As jsevi83 said you are the 1st in about 50 to report a problem so there's a strong chance that you did something wrong.

Regarding the "process stopped" errors any chance it's the old external/internal storage switching problem? The one where for some reason (possibly slow card taking "too long" to respond at boot time) a phone configured for default external storage switches to internal and thereafter can't find files/data/apps installed on the external storage?

[denzele]

Not sure any more mate..as I said put the file on sd card boot in recovery flashed zip rebot that was it..nothing else done ..can you tell me pls how to flash that CWM from the link over mine which is 4.0.1 ..just to make sure this time..then I'll try again..

Thanks for help mate..

Download the Touch Hybrid ZIP
Check the MD5 checksum to make sure that the download is good
Copy the zip to your sdcard
Boot into your existing CWM recovery
Choose apply zip (or whatever the option is called in CWM)
Reboot into recovery
Should be the new one now

[denzele]

Thanks  mate...will give  a try later..might be old version of CWM caused error that I had..I can't think of anything else..really want to flash this to stop 3G reboots..
