[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
It seems I am the only one in this thread :( and nobody wants to help me.

Current status is that I am still stuck. I can write at some places using nvflash --rawdevicewrite, but not everywhere. Even in the middle of the memory, I had write operations where the first 64kbytes of the write were replaced by ffff, then the following 64k bytes were written properly, and the rest was again replaced by ffff. Trying to write blocks smaller than 64k did not help, it is as if the target sector was corrupted (depite at the beginning it did not contain ffff, but a part of the initial flash).

Then I tried reformating the partitions. Some succeeded, some didn't.

Then I read in nvflash internal help (using nvflash --cmdhelp --format_all) the --format_all would reformat also the BCT an PT partitions, using the provided configfile. It was exactly what I needed! I tried it:

sudo ../nvflash --configfile android_fastboot_full.cfg --format_all --bl bootloader.bin --go

and it failed with the error messages

waiting for bootloader to initialize
bootloader downloaded successfully
Formatting all partitions please wait.. bootloader status: partition table is required for this command (code: 8) message: nverror:0x4 (0x4) flags: 0
FAILED!

formatting failed
format-all failed
NvError 0x0

It looks as if the --format_all which should create the partition table needs the partition table, and cannot only use the provided configuration file. This seems rather strange to me, so I may miss something obvious.

Please, help me.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimcpl:
There were probably a few who were following this thread (myself included), but couldn't help, because we have very little info on the BCT.

Plus you have a ztab, rather than a gtablet.

Congratulations on you success and persistence, and thanks for posting this info.

I do have one question: how'd you figure out what to use for the odmdata? That's another piece of the puzzle w little info....

Hi, how did you manage to restore "nvflash_t2_mp_wifi_1202.rar"...I restored my malata smb-a1011 with the nvflash tutorial posted here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950 but I'm having major problems and I can't use my hardware keys (i.e. Home, Back, Menu)

any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
I found a link to a Malata image named nvflash_t2_mp_wifi_1202.rar. the file itself can be found using a web search engine, it seems to be available at several places. In this file, the download.bat script reads:

"nvflash.exe" --bct Malata_a02_12Mhz_H5PS1G83EFR-S6C_333Mhz_1GB_2K8Nand_HY27UF084G2B-TP.bct --setbct --bl bootloader.bin --configfile android_fastboot_full.cfg --odmdata 0xbb0c0011 --create --go

I also read in this post about using 0xba0c0011 and somewhere else about 0xbc0c0011. However if now I search for this I find a reference to an Adam, not a Zpad.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misty soul:
Hi Jim,

Following an idea from one of your posts on another thread, I looked at the binary structure of the BCT as it is retrieved using nvflash --read 2 02-BCT.img.

The partition is composed of 24 exact copies of the same 128 kibibytes block. In this block, bytes 4068, 4069, 4070 and 4071 (counting from 0) are 0x11, 0x00, 0x0c, 0xbb, which appear to be the omddata I set, in reversed order.

So it may be easy to recover the good omddata from any working tablet by dumping its BCT partition and looking at these bytes. It would probably be good to gather this information for all tablets in some reference thread.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuvidroid:
Hey everyone,

Do you know wheter it is possible to change the power button mapping, and use for example the "volume up" button as the power? That would be pretty awesome.

Probably everyone hates that button on the back :P

I saw a thread for the HTC Hero about remapping keys, but I have no idea if it can be applied also to the xoom.

Thanks!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moesgaarda:
I see that the question has been asked a few times before, but I can't seem to find a specific reason that it happens.

It usually happens during calls, or when using GPS for more than 15 minutes.

I've tried using several ROMs (Cyanogenmod, oxygen, leedroid) and the problem keeps happening.

After a certain amount of time, the phone decides to restart, and just keeps looping the HTC logo, and I have to remove the battery for a few minutes before I can power on the phone again.

Right now I'm running newest Leedroid with newest radio, and I have the following apps installed:

c:geo,

Gentle alarm,

Handcent SMS.

Anybody have a guess what it could be?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
Your motherboard. Could be anyway. Put it back to stock with an ruu and see if its doing it with that. If it is, send it in for repair.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moesgaarda:
Thank you for replying!

I just put it back to stock, and I hope that'll fix it.. Otherwise I guess it's time for a new phone, as I don't have any warranty on it anymore. :(

Will report back later if it was fixed!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Well if you don't know what changed. Wipe everything and re-flash the ROM.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonasbry:
Exactly the same symptoms I had. I went back to stock but no change, sent my phone to HTC and they changed the motherboard.
[Fascinate Accessories] solarpolitiks:
I have to say, these are the worst screen protectors I have ever applied on any sort of electronic equipment. Picture quality looks like garbage and it feels horrible. The matte finish makes them feel gritty and a pain to use the phone. Cheap eBay screen protectors work better.

Anybody else used them?
[Fascinate Accessories] TheBadBen:
I bought them. I'm stupid for doing so. Rocking the Zagg now. I guess I feel smarter...
[Fascinate Accessories] solarpolitiks:
Yeah. I never bought them. I received the Fascinate in a trade and the person included an extra. At first I thought they were just horrible at applying screen protectors but then I applied the spare and it looked exactly the same. :/
[Fascinate Accessories] TheSonicEmerald:
My friends all have Verizon Screen Proctectors for their phones, and I have to agree, they look like complete crap. I've just been recommending Steinheil and Reallook to them, and they ask why, and I show them my screen. Almost invisible, its like the screen protector isn't even there, and my friends are shocked. :)

Sent from a Limited Edition phone from a Premium app..
[Fascinate Accessories] DooneyInThaA:
Zagg is worth it. Really is an "invisible" shield. Can't even tell it's there.
[Fascinate Accessories] TheSonicEmerald:
Ehh, Zagg is ok. Really comes down to personal preference, but Zagg's matte look and feel isn't really what I would want in a screen protector. Steinheil's Ultra Crystal Clear Protector is amazing.
[Fascinate Accessories] SHAKEJONES:
The Anti-glare screen protectors are garbage no matter where you get them from. I ordered some from ebay and LUCKILY I ordered some regular screen protectors as well and after about 5 mins with the anti-glare I took it off and trashed it and the others and put a regular one on.

Also, the mirror finish screen protectors are bad too
[Fascinate Accessories] solarpolitiks:
Yeah. That whole matte feel is not my deal. Honestly, cheap eBay screen protectors have been fine.for me with a perfect application and I am very picky about this stuff. I use invisible shields for their body shields though
[Fascinate Accessories] dalrym05:
Agreed bought them when I had my Droid x and have to say "anti glare" is deffinately just a marketing ploy. If you take them back and tell them their crap they will give you a refund. That's what I did. I only reteerned two
[Fascinate Accessories] JeXus:
OMG yes! Worst purchase I have ever made.
[Fascinate Accessories] obsidianchao:
Why am I the only person who doesn't use screen protectors for this exact reason? I like my amazing AMOLED to look amazing.
[Fascinate Accessories] solarpolitiks:
They look fine with the right protector. The ones I bought allow me to admire this AMOLED now. I swear its like having a new phone.
[Fascinate Accessories] briguyy:
I too dont have a screen protector on mine even though i bought some and have them sitting in the desk..for some reason i think they will interfere with the sensitvity of the screen.
[Fascinate Accessories] ashleygreene:
i made the mistake of buying two packs of verizon's screen protectors when i bought my phone. they were on clearance and i know why after trying one. they were horrible. i was reluctant to buy them even being on clearance after having sensitivity issues on my Rogue, but i figured if nothing else it would protect my screen until my online order of protectors showed up.

i use screen protectors that i bought off some random seller on ebay and they work fine. i get about 5 months or so of use from each one. very clear and no sensitivity issues. i dont know how necessary protectors are with the particular glass on Fascinates but i dont want to learn the hard way. i forget the protector is on there most of the time.
[Fascinate Accessories] Robtao:
Exactly! But does everyone know that the Fascinate comes with Gorilla Glass, which is way tougher and scratch resistant? I am using mine "naked" so far, and no scratches yet.

So the screen looks great!

Anybody had any bad experiences going naked? (should I reword that? I don't want to hijack this thread!) Just looking for warnings about not using a screen protector.
[Fascinate Accessories] solarpolitiks:
All I can say is that I received my Fascinate used and there was a scratch on it, on the glass but to the side of the screen. Very light, but it was there. Screen protectors just give me a peace of mind hah.
[Fascinate Accessories] minho422:
Never buy anything except phones from Verizon, or any other cellular companies.
[Fascinate Accessories] iofthestorm:
I'm actually considering taking mine off, although the girl at Verizon actually did a good job of putting it on and mine is clear so I can't even really tell that it's there. But I definitely have more scratches on the screen protector than on the area around it (yay Gorilla Glass) and I'm wondering if the screen protector collects more fingerprints than the glass. Anyone know about that? I know some phones have oleophobic coatings but I'm not sure if the Fascinate is one of them.
[Fascinate Accessories] gkirby11:
The fascinate is not one of them, at least from my research.

I have thought about going naked. I am using the Steinheil Anti-fingerprint protectors for a number of reasons. I am sure no one here would like them because they degrade the screen quality but I love them. No finger prints, no glare, 2x faster finger motions (heh yea) across the protector vs. the stock screen.

I'd image that the screen is much like a car windscreen. It will look great for years to come but over time fine micro scratches will build up. :eek:
[Fascinate Accessories] jpx213:
the screen protector they put on my phone came off by the time i got home from the store. heat must have warped it, and would no longer stick. ordered a different one online
[Fascinate Accessories] ace5198:
cheap walmart universal covers trump all.. they easly fall out of the packaging!! and work like a dream :D
[Fascinate Accessories] royalewihcheese:
Anything that will scratch Gorilla Glass will go through a screen protector like a rock through wet toilet paper. I'm not saying it's impossible to scratch GG, but 0.1mm of plastic isn't going to stop whatever it is. Watch some of the YouTube videos; people attacking it with car keys, stabbing it with pens.

I'm for naked; the number of scenarios where you benefit from a protector is very small, and from the moment you put it on, it messes with the primary function of the thing it's protecting (if only slightly). Not a net benefit imo.
[Fascinate Accessories] JoeProcopio:
hmmmmm....had Zagg on my OG Droid and Incredible....never liked the orange peel feel, thankfully, Zagg took them back and refunded me all my money....put the antiglare that came with the Fascinate on only because i didn't have anything else at the time...that was horrible

I went with Boxwave i think on the Inc, very nice, bought an interim cheapo on ebay for the Fascinate...applied it perfectly, it was just as good as the boxwave, only i got 3 for less than the price of 1 boxwave....the first one is still on the fascinate, 8 months going strong...

wife just got the Droid Pro and the free anti is on there...it too is horrible....going to buy some good ones right now...
[Fascinate Accessories] ace5198:
def against going naked.. my screen is scratched.. just from being in my pocket.. but i change my protector about every 3 months.. and under it.. still good as new.. but where its not cover.. is getting rather scratched up.. GG or not.. being in my pants pocket with my keys.. will tear anything up
[Fascinate Accessories] mkzbdroid:
second this....my screen looks like a cutting board after 8 months of not having a screen protector.Good thing I always get insurance, and I hate how screen protectors just make glass feel like plastic....if I wanted a plastic screen I would have gotten a palm pre....
[Fascinate Accessories] brd912:
Doesent ths fascinate have gorilla glass?
[Fascinate Accessories] risingfish:
Yep, hands down they look like crap. I bought them as part of a "package" when I got my phone. What a mistake.
[Fascinate Accessories] ccmichael:
I know your post is from awhile back, but thanks for the Steinhall suggestion; got an ultra clear least week, and I'm thrilled with the clarity and ease of insulation... Plus our covers the entire face!
[Fascinate Accessories] mwestendorf:
Thanks for the recommendations as well I told the verizon rep if it wasn't going to cover the entire screen I'd just get one online.

Never been happier!

[Fascinate Accessories] pbiddy19:
I will admit that the matte screen protectors I bought did degrade the screen's picture quality a tiny bit, but they were a perfect cut, made the screen smooth, and left little to no fingerprints. I was running on Evil Fascination at the time, so I didn't really have a flashy wallpaper that I wanted to show off. My phone, in combination with the case I bought, looked like it belonged to the devil. :D

If you use Swype frequently, they can't be beat, IMO.
[Fascinate Accessories] sk eris:
I use Realook on my Fascinate and my wifes T-bolt. It works great, easy install, and great feel. I have yet to get any scratches on this thing either.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socialexandru:
Hello!

Here is my story. 1 month ago I had install Leed Droid on my phone with partitions on card and everything was fine till I got some errors (like rebooting). So yesterday I had decide to go back to original ROM. Maybe I had done the steps wrong. Here is what I had done. First I had format my SD card in a SD reader to FAT32. And after that it had start my problems. The phone can not see the SD CARD and also the PC can't see the phone... so I can't install original ROM or put it on SD card to flash it from there if that is possible. I can go into bootloader and I had try to add files on SD card but can not see it it say:

can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

I had read abt this but coudn't solved the problems... so is posible to be USB bricked but I had follow the steps for that and didn't work... Any ideea?

P.S. I can boot Le3e Droid if I push recovery. But I can not install anything on card bc it can not see it

Here are the details of h-boot:

I have H-BOOT 0.93 0001

BRAVO PVT 1 SHIP S-OFF

MICROP 031D

TOUCHPANEL- SYNT0101

RADIO-5.17.05.08

Thanks!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robit9:
It not necessarily bricked. It could just simply be that the format went wrong. Don't know on what OS you formatted it but windows isn't the tidiest in formating. Never experienced it on my phone but it happend to me with my digital camera. Camera wouldn't read it anymore. T

If you have access to an other sd card you could try flashing the rom from that card. I would test that first before you try something else.

Good luck

plug the phone

use RUU.exe ??

My Desire stucks on the white htc-screen with the InsertCoin_GB_Sense2.1 A2SD+

I was trying reinstall so many times but without any success.

With InsertCoin_GB_Sense2.1 CM7 and RCMixSv07 all is ok.

The Desire is s-off, CWM3.0.0.5, Hboot CM7, 6,5GB fat32, 1 GB ext3 and 500MB swap.

Before installing I wiped all .

Pls. pls. pls. any ideas?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pena020563:
Hey dude install the newest htc sync on your computer.

Then download the newest RUU for your phone then run it like any other program while your phone is connected to your computer. That should install your phones softwre the way it was when you got it. If tjat doesn't work try to reboot in hboot and then factory reset. Hope that helps.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vr5411:
I belive your desire is fine, and you just need sd card formating.

It happened to me four times.

Easiest way is to remove sd card from phone and put it into reader. My advice is usb reader. But sd reader will do also.

Download HP Usb formatting utility and format card. That will last some time. Now boot Gparted and format as you wish.

Or try with computer management disk and try to delete partitions on sd then format again.

Let me know if working.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socialexandru:
Hello again!

I had buy another SD card and still my phone can't see he SD card...is not available... also the PC still don't see my phone... so I'm blocked to use Lee Droid.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njiwani:
I just got the Nexus S. Before installing CM 7 i tried out the stock launcher with a live wallpaper running. I was surprised at how smooth it was and that it had a very nice way of scrolling through the app drawer. After installing CM7 and launcher pro plus i noticed that opening the app drawer wasn't as smooth with a live wallpaper running and it didn't have the nice way of scrolling. Launcher pro has many more features but the stock did have that smoothness. Is there anyway to get this on launcher pro?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
You could try playing with the settings and see if you can normalize it.

There are other alternatives to launchers if you like.

Stock launcher is the only one that can use hardware acceleration therefore it will always be faster/smoother than any 3rd party launcher.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotjazz:
with the exception of UD Launcher which was used in nscollab for only two releases. Loved it because it was just as smooth and basically the same as the stock launcher but gave you more home-screens and a 5 button dock option and saved a lot of battery even!!!

But then again I guess it is based directly on the stock launcher - at least that'd be my guess.
