And i have tried in different computer today also. The same error.

half hour ago i have uninstall java and reinstall older version of java

the same errorr...

can i fake seus to show my device is orange or hk version?
[Xperia Arc General] jatt101:
yeh but isnt your bootloader unlocked though?, if it is, then theres nothing you could do
[Xperia Arc General] timroth:
No.

my bootloader is locked. just a rooted phone.

i mean seus can see my phone. please tell me if i can do that:)
[Xperia Arc General] jatt101:
then you can do that, but im not sure how, i think your gonna have to edit your build.prop file, i think someone posted about this in the xperia x10 forum or check our development thread
[Xperia Arc General] timroth:
Im searching about this for hours but couldnt find anything.I have installed root explorer also. Everything ready .but cant find a tutorial or something.
[Xperia Arc General] jatt101:
Open root explorer and go to \system and open the build.prop file in the text editor

- Change the following three lines:

ro.product.name=LT15i_XXXX-XXXX

ro.build.fingerprint=SEMC/LT15i_XXXX-XXXX/

ro.semc.version.cust=XXXX-XXXX

change those lines to 1247-1923 <--- thats o2 network

im not sure if this will work, but you can give it a try

thnx. trying now:)

Found 2.3.3!!

Thank you man. How didnt i see that topic i dunno...

Wish this update would fix my problems...
[Xperia Arc General] kiz1983:
Juz to remind u, if urs is locked, u dun hav root for 2.3.3 for now as gbreak doesnt work atm
[Xperia Arc General] jatt101:
thats good to hear, you went through quite the hassle to get the update, what problems are you experiencing?
[Xperia Arc General] timroth:
Well i have a problem phone:) And i cant send to service because i bought from germany.Lots of restarts, cant play 3d quality games more then 1-2 min , getting too warm etc etc. Lets see if this new fw would fix or not..

Btw i have installed new fw it tool 5 min to boot first:) I really thought i bricked it. Seems ok for now. Thank you so much again. Now i would try a few hardcore games and force that phone till its limits:)

But i can tell you for now menus are really faster then older and with no lag.

And i used to wait 1.5 min to boot the phone. Now it did booted in 25-30 sec may be.Even there are lots of widgets and widget locker etc.

All my apps are still here even root apps( of course they arent workin)
[Xperia Arc General] jatt101:
ahhh that really does suck, did you try contacting sony support, i don't think the location should matter, why don't you say you moved to wherever you are right now or something. hopefully everything works out for you
[Xperia Arc General] timroth:
Yes i did. They told me that arc is not in our country yet and they cant help( Which is stupid because arc is now in our country (TURKEY).

Customer support sux in Turkey.

By the way i have made some more tests. And yeah phone is a way much faster.

But warming issue continues, now games crashes after 15 min or what. I think i have a cpu problem. Its not battery. Just the part near cam gets so so warm. At least now i can play games like ninja jump without crashing.You know it sux when u are tryin to make a record if it crashes and you lose all the points u collect:)
[Xperia Arc General] Golgo:
Ok sounds promising. If you could download CPU spy (free in Market) it will tell you the amount of time the Arc spends in different cpu modes - just to verify :)
[Xperia Arc General] obtenpander:
Has any one verified if the update fixed the wifi issues?

I bought 2 arcs the other day and have had to jury rig my network and install tons of apps just to have some semblance of a decent wifi connection.

Thanks

Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc updates ROM to 2.3.3 - proof Gingerbreak can't root it

Video for those of you that dare not update fearing it will wipe your phone to its default? No fear.

How I updated the phone ROM from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 (as you all did) via SE PC Companion.

Surprisingly all my existing apps and data were untouched after the upgrade. However, as expected, we all lost our root access rights (at least for now) with this upgrade. The saddest part is that these 'essential' apps does not work any more without root rights.

Titanium Backup Pro

Screencapture

Fastreboot

Root explorer

Marketenabler etc.

Plus - all the 'bloatware' and battery hungry services are back with a vengeance. Thanks Sony Ericsson.

Go to youtube, type "Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc updates ROM to 2.3.3 - how I did it & proof Gingerbreak can't root it" to watch

Next thing to do if you can't live without root rights is to unlock the bootloader, use some modded / pre-rooted .img file and do a fastboot - which of course WILL virgin-ize the phone again (as some of you have repeatedly done)

Hi there, this topic's been raised before but I can't find a solution that fits my problem.

I'm no n00b when it comes to custom roms, I've flashed, broken, reflashed various different mods.

However, recently, whenever I try and flash a rom from my sd that I've transferred from my computer I get the "can't install... (bad)" error, but when I download one through rom manager, it works fine.

I know the files on my sd are not corrupt, I've tried multiple different roms, different cables to transfer, different sd cards, formatting sd cards with the official software etc etc and I just can't seem to find where I'm going wrong, PLEASE HELP! :(

coming from a motorola defy, i have never had the pleasure of flashing a kernal. looking for a quick charge one, and i think im gonna give chads a try. can someone walk me through the proper steps of flashing a kernal? im on OMFGB right now with slayhers #27 kernal if it matters
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carngeX:
I've heard you should wipe the Dalvik Cache before flashing a kernel. And be advised, when you flash the kernel, it's going to take a while for it to start up for the first time, so resist the urge to due a battery pull.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trickster2369:
Wiping cache = VERY good idea.

Nandroid backup also good idea, just in case.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trickster2369:
You are basically erasing the phones short term memory. When you flash your new "whatever you want", your phone rebuilds that memory using the new "whatever you want" instead of the old info.

(You don't lose anything)

Crude explanation? Yes.

But it's my story, and I'm sticking to it. :)

[Palm Treo 750] RatusNatus:
:D Hi guys, my first post here.

i'm using:

W7 64 ultimate

Treo 750 unlocked WM5

I do have 2 sync cables here and 2 batterys.

I want to upgrade to one of this customs roms over here but.

I was syncing fine and after a hard reset the Treo now is on Devices and printers identified as a Windows Mobile Remote Adapter - network adapter.

And windows only show it with the screen on. When it turn off it desapear from devices.

Ive read about the bug on x64 OS but i did sync this treo, on cable, on this computer. On my first plug, W7 installed WMDC and reconized the treo.

I was about to flash it with the hermann or that Spanish one. This is really frustating.

I already read all the stuff but this phone is too old and there is a gap on the info about windows 7... not to mention the problems with palm and MS.

Is there any usar that do use W7 64 that can send me the driver:

PS. Sorry about my english.

PSS. Can i sync without the SIM:

cya

Edited:

Megatron helped me.

I did a fresh install of the WMDC, a hard reset and thats it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] q9cya:
I have a evo which I had rooted and left everything stock on.Suddenly the down volume button wants to engage at any given time and for extended periods of time...in call,while on home screen,when the screens off...doesnt matter engages volume down and doesnt stop..

So I thought maybe unrevoked wasnt installed so clean,since this happened the first time soon after rooting.I hoped totally wiping the phone(caulkins) would fix this button issue,which is HELL in the bootloader....AFter a full wipe and stable cyanogen7 all seemed well! the problem was gone...So I figured cool,must been some software issue.Now its back a week later,I walkd in room to see screen on battery drained and phone just vibrating away.

So I switched to armons recovery,wiped dalviks and caches...no luck so I decided I would remap the key.I got a remapping app and it didnt have a way to DISABLE the key only remapp it to another function.Needless to say any such function being pushed 100 times a minute isnt much a fix.I tried a volume blocker app which just popped up every ten seconds asking if i confirm the volume change....

I am debating on opening the phone up and seeing if its a physically stuck key...However due to the fact that I can make it happen by turning screen off then on to me says its not an actual hardware button issue...

I have an evo I use for cellular service...which I dont much mess with,this one is wifi only and running cyanogen7 and latest godmode kernel...its weird how it worked great for a week never a problem and now Im stuck in a scrolling out of control bootloader...because when i powered off lol the down button engaged while turning back on....very frustrating:mad:...

Can I DISABLE this key?

I have seen a lot of unfinished info on UNROOTING so rather than see a bunch of people stuck like I was last night I thought I would toss a little guide together for everyone.

I take no credit for any guides I post just pitching in, if I help you CLICK me a THANKS!

download the asus firmware from here: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/TF101/UpdateLauncher_US_epad_user_8239.zip

extract the blob from the zip file and put it in your adb folder located at something like:

AndroidSDK/platform-tools/

as you did to root the device.

open cmd promt window type the following and return after each.

\cd

\cd AndroidSDK\platform-tools\

adb devices

*adb your device make sure it is hooked up and id'ing your transformer.*

adb push blob /data/local

adb shell

*at the # type the following*

dd if=/data/local/blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

*wait a few mins to be safe*

now reboot the device, on reboot you should see a progress bar indicating the flashing of the “blob” file. this will remove the clockwork recovery and put your tablet into BOOTLOOP this is ok.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that your tablet is stuck in a boot loop, put on the root of the micro sd card on your computer-> the update normally found in the asus/update/ folder from the firmware zip you download from asus. I used the .9 US update and it worked fine, you must then rename it to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip make sure you leave it a zip dont change the extension AND->make sure it is on the root of the card.

Now put your card in your transformer, hold the down volume and power till it prompts you in the upper left about wiping or booting to recovery**> let go and push up on the volume, which will load the factory recovery android with a box and a loading bar *** IF IT IS STILL CLOCKWORK RECOVERY THEN YOU MISSED SOMETHING START OVER DO NOT CONTINUE***> it will begin to flash the update do not bother it turn it off or anything else will take up to 10 mins to complete. it will restart and you will see the bar load again on boot up then it will boot to the asus logo and then to the homescreen and your good.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] trblsome9six:
I get to this point...

See the box with a loading bar for about three seconds then the screen switches to the image of the android robot logo and an exclamation point within a triangle. I think its because I accidentally wiped my data last night when I was trying to fix the boot loop issue. I'm about to give up on this one...

Edit: Hey it works great, just make sure you don't add a .zip extension to the E101_SDUPDATE rename.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] trblsome9six:
Big Thanks to ianandamy this works great! Got it up and running. The only problem is that I am being prompted to enter a password in order to get it to the homescreen...The second problem is that I never had a security password in order to access the tablet. I have a feeling this has to do with it being rooted by the previous owner before I purchased the tablet. Would the settings return to how he customized it pre-root? If so the password the tablet is asking for would be the one he set before I ever owned the tablet. How do I get around this?!

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sirmx:
This cool and all.. but what would really be nice is to have the stock recovery yanked out of that 500MB blob so we don't have to transfer 500MB around, instead maybe 8-10MB (guessing based on CWM blob).

I'd do it, but I'm lame and don't have a linux box or VM setup :).. that and I sold my eeePad to pay for vet bills... something about 'daddy save the puppy' is haunting me now. :cool:

P.S. Thanks for the info, just trying to save time if this is possible :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Segnaro:
There you go. I extracted the recovery.img from the stock 8.2.3.9 US blob and put it into a clockwork flashable package. Tested it on Prime 1.3r2

After flashing this you should be able to use ASUS firmware packages again, but ymmv.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] StirCwazy:
Mind explaining what exactly this is going to allow me to do? I flash it, then do what with the original firmware? And in doing this would it be a more complete restore back to stock removing everything related to root/cwm/custom boot and so on?

Either or, appreciate the work, you guys are awesome!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Segnaro:
After flashing it, you take the ASUS folder from the original firmware and put it on your SD card. The Transformer will ask you if you want to install that firmware.

Now that clockwork recovery has been replaced by stock recovery, it should be able to install normally.

I went from Prime 1.3r2 back to unrooted stock 8.2.3.9, no problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ewingr:
Sorry to be a bit pesky here, but just want to be real sure: Based on ROM work I've done on my Android phone, unrooting is not the same as going back to a stock ROM. Actually the reverse is true: you can apply a stock ROM< and it will effectively unroot the phone.

So, if we have put PRIME on (or other ROMS...I think there is another...), then do this process, the phone will be stock, and in shape to send in for warranty if necessary?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Segnaro:
Yes, and after a factory reset it would be like when you just took it out of the box.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] b1ackplague:
Will this un-root process work for the HC 3.1 leak? And if not what modifications would need to be done to unroot from HC 3.1? Am I able to wipe data/cache/dalvik from CWM then install HC 3.0.1 (Prime) so I can then follow this unroot process?

Edit: I found my answer in another thread. I'll post the link because I think it might be helpful to others with the same question.
