HTC Desire :: Exec System/bin/sh Failed ?
Jun 22, 2010
I'm very new at this rooting stuff and I saw a lot of benefits from it so I thought I'd give it a try.
I've followed this guide and completed it:
14/Jun r6 riskfreeroot - HTC Desire rooting guide - now with HBOOT 0.80 and OS to 1.21 support - Android @ MoDaCo
I also did the custom recovery image part (although I don't know what it is used for)
And I didn't make a goldcar either because someone told me I didn't have to do that as I don't have a carrier.
But my problem is I can't change anything as cmd keeps giving this error when I enter adb shell:
- exec ' system bin sh' failed no such file or directory (2)
I'm in my phone recovery and my usb cable is plugged in. This is the screenshot: http://i46.tinypic.com/120j7tg.jpg

I have a rooted Desire with 2.1 OS and I want to update to 2.2 but when I check in About section for a software update first System Update Available is 1.21.405.2 . Ok until now. I supose the first thing is to do this update and after reboot when I'll check to new System Software Update a 2.2 will appear.
After I download 1.21.405.2 via Wifi phone starts backup process and then reboots in a black screen with green SYNC icon and a loading bar stop loading after a few seconds an another black screen with a BIG RED question mark appears and then phone reboots as usual but with no update Why can't update in order to pass next step: 2.2 OS update ?

I tried downloading and installing froyo OTA tonight and it rebooted and a status bar showed up. After about a third of the way into it an "!" icon appeared and the phone instantly rebooted. Upon reboot i got a message saying System update failed!I'm running 2.1 rooted - but all bloatware etc i've kept. Also running LP. Do i need to unroot before updating? I haven't read anything that says I need to.

I work on rooted unlocked G1, latest JS firmware ADP1.5 I wrote some application that perform some root actions in the /system of course, when messing up /system requires to remount that partition but that's not my issue.
the code is fairly simple (attached at bottom of this message). however when running a command as root (for example executeAsRoot("su ls -l /system")) I get exit code 255 (i.e. -1 or failure) when running that command as non-root - it runs ok with exit code 0. The strange thing that this happens only in the real G1 . On the emulator, root commands work just fine. if i open a terminal on the G1 and perform su - I get the "allow"/"deny" screen but after that I am able to perform actions as root. How can I debug the reason for the application process failure ?
CODE:..................

right so the bottom buttons were working fine, but the next day, the back button takes me to the home screen :S so if im on facebook, press the back button, instead of going to the previous page. and i also set up the draw thing to unlock it, but as it was raining a little it said i entered it wrong too many times and asked for the google mail thing... but i really have no rememberence of making one, which is so ******* annyoying.
the only way ive found out to solve this problem is doin a phone software update, however as my bottom right button is working properly, everytime i hold it down to plug the phones usb, the phone just starts normally, so basically i cannot do the system update.

I used System tuner to tweak a little on my Acer liquid gallant solo E350. I reduced the CPU frequency when the screen is off and changed the governor to ondemand with a minimal frequency of 500 [MHz]. nothing too special here.
A few days ago i did a one click backup with system tuner. Today i restored it because I saw my CPU frequency constancly being 1000[MHz]. After the backup on program after the other start to fail. Unfortunately i turned my phone off and now it won't boot anymore. I got suck at the green glowing acer screen. My idea is now to make an update file which replaces the system files.

I have created a Goldcard using the tool on this Forum. It appears okay when I check the loaded files on the card. When I try and run Test RUU it fails to update my ROM from 1.15.110.11. (T-Mobile UK). I thought HTC Sync might be the problem as I had been using disk drive to connect my phone, so I reinstalled it. HTC Sync causes my Windows Explorer to crash but I managed a workaround and tried running Test RUU again. Once again the update failed. On my phone screen I get the message CID incorrect Update fail which sounds like a Goldcard problem.

OK update failed, i have tried posting in other threads but the pace is to quick with other stuff.
i had a flashed stock phone, as took my branding off, i have since been told that you need to keep the gold card in when doing updates.
i have also tried resetting but no joy. im told i need to re flash the orginal 2.1 stock and then re do the update with the gcard in. only trouble is my phone keeps resetting on its own and i can't seem to enable hd mode on the sd card which i need

Somehow, I seem to have a worm virus in my hotmail email account. I have run a full system scan and changed my password etc. However, I can no longer access my hotmail account on my HTC Desire via the Mail icon - I keep getting a "login failed" message. This is obviously due to my password change. How can I change my password on the Desire so I can regain access to my email account?

Has anybody received an error "the server failed to communicate" when attempting to get an internet connection?A restart didn't appear to resolve it so I took the battery out and now its working.I don't think its network related as I had a HSDPA signal at the time.

Im not sure if its the orange network that might be at fault or the phone? It was happening when I was running it on Orange branding quite a lot, it seems to be doing it less now with the standard ROM but still is.
Whats happening;
On occasion when I send a text (with seemingly strong reception) it instantly says its failed. I know when I manually send it again people tell me that they received it more than once. That to me makes it look like the phone is sending the message but saying it failed.

When I'm trying to partition my desire using Rom Manager, it reboots with the exclamation mark error. If I press the power button I can see the message
E:failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (Invalid argument)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted
What have I done wrong or do I need to do?

I would like advice from those with 2.2 on Orange. I've had my Desire for 2 months now and love it-apart from one thing-the damned Internet connection. Quite often, with a strong 3G+ (HSDPA) signal, my internet connection fails to load data. Then, a few minutes later, in the same location, it works perfectly. I know for a fact that this is not a network only problem. The reason I know this is because I previously used the exact same SIM in my iphone for 6 months in the very same locations and it always worked perfectly.
Therefore, my strong suspicion is that the problem is a result of the combination of the Orange branding on a Desire and the network itself. I'm sure I read of a couple of posters here who had the very same problems and when they moved to 2.2 the problem disappeared. Can anyone confirm? I've been waiting patiently for the Orange update to 2.2 but am getting fed up and I'm concerned that the Orange bloatware may still cause an issue after this. Hence, I'm considering a debrand and update myself.

My Problem: Was using the HTC Desire bought in India. I rooted with Unrevoked 3.21, S-OFF with Alpharev.
I was thinking of taking my phone to HTC to show an LED burnin problem, and tried to unroot by flashing the RUU for Asia_India: RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_India_1.21.720.4_Radio_32.36.00 .28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127705_signed. I thought that was the correct RUU.
I booted my phone in Fastboot, applied the RUU, and it rebooted my phone into RUU. Then it flashed an error message saying the RUU version was incorrect. Being the idiot that I am, I rebooted the phone..And got stuck!
The phone does not boot. On pressing Vol- and Power button, it vibrates, and then nothing. Screen is blank. It wont boot into Fastboot, Recovery or the ROM. If I connect it to USB and do the Vol- and Poweron, it detects my device as an Android 1.0 device.
I have tried the following:
1. Went to Android SDK, tried flashing Clockworkmod recovery image with the command:

Do i have to root?

It looks like several people having tales woe with HTC Sync issues. I finally got HTC Sync working 2 nights ago and synced my contacts with no problems. Last night thought I'd sync. again and also try my calendar Phone didn't find HTC Sync until I re-installed HTC sync. It worked fine, but then after a 3rd sync the PC and phone lost each other and didn't re-establish a link. I'm used to a Windows Mobile PDA that simply works - no messing around. I use Outlook 2003, or at least a version that rules out using the free Google tools, if HTC Sync is this flaky I feel forced to buy something like SyncMyCal and go via Google for contacts/calendars. It obviously works, but I am doing something that breaks the link? Running ActiveSync, having Outlook running etc?

Now I finally have a stable connection between Desire & Windows 7 I have a new problem.
Whenever I try to sync it goes through the motions but nothing syncs.
I have a clean Outlook install with nothing in it and the contacts and calendar entries on Desire came fromm synching with Google account.
For some reason HTC Sync doesn't see anything on the phone and reports no added / updated / removed items - so it syncs nothing.
Any ideas how I can get my contacts & calendar entries on the desire to show up so it can sync with outlook?

When ever I send a text message when I've had no signal but the phone hasn't told me yet I get a failed notification which is fine, but I'll keep getting them until I find the text message and delete it, even then I still get a couple more, deleting the message also means I have to type it again, anyone know how to stop the multiple notifications?
I've downloaded No Signal Alert which should help in the future and Handcent seems to cut the notifications down and bit but I still get a few.

I recently installed the modaco r8 version of Android on my desire. Then when I wanted to install bash and nano, I found out that the system partition was out of space. I can't even create symbolic links on it. And yes, I did remember to remount the drive I used the df command to check the remaining space, and there is about 3 bytes left.
