I agree, Love WP7 despite the lack of Mango. I guess it's a multiple reason situation. Recent report of sales reps steering customers away from the OS. Users that can't live without tethering. Others who are addicted to customising WinMo who have transitioned to Android. Maybe some don't like the size,weight,keyboard. Doesn't help either that on Sprint we only have one choice so far. I like it so far that I am willing to wait it all out.
[HTC 7 Pro] drelisimo:
I like the phone too. However WP7 is just not functional enough for me. To be honest I bought the hardware only and I am trying to figure out a way to change the OS. I need a vpn client with certificate support, full exchange support and good JAVA. Unfortunately this device supports nothing out of the box. No VPN, no Exchange sync via wifi ... :( Just that the JAVA is native, but I do not need it as I cannot connect to my corp system without VPN.

Further music and videos are pain in the ars as the most common formats are not supported.

Please review my questions in the Android on HTC arrive thread in this section if you have some extensive knowledge and if you are willing to help me run something different on this device.
[HTC 7 Pro] god_forbids:
No idea, friend. I had to forgo 4G to get this phone but WP7 was so compelling that there are now 2 gleeful Arrive users in my household. We love these things to pieces and Mango is going to make them even more excellent. I can seriously say that MS has knocked it out of the park with this one and I stand behind the platform all the way.
[HTC 7 Pro] nebc100:
Sorry drelisimo, but I think that you are mistaken. WP7 certainly does support exchange sync over Wifi. I have done it on 4 different WP7 devices MANY times.

I agree that java and VPN are another matter, but then if you had done your homework before buying the device, you wouldn't have had any nasty suprises.
[HTC 7 Pro] drelisimo:
As I said I bought hardware with the idea to tackle the OS later somehow. I did my homework and I am not surprized.

Anyway, would you please tell me how did you sync your exchange over wifi? It always tells me that I need my data connections to be turned on.

Thanks.
[HTC 7 Pro] sh4d0w86:
as stated, probably the largest reason Windows Phone 7 sales are so slow is because sales representatives aren't pushing the products.

an example article found here --> You Can't Buy A Windows Phone If They Won't Sell You One.

[HTC 7 Pro] DAyellow:
currently, there is a sales offer where i can get the 7 Pro for half the price, is it worth?
[HTC 7 Pro] jaygriggs:
The only 2 things its missing is tethering and downloading files straight to the phone.

If I had these two features there would be no doubt that this phone was huge upgrade from the tp1

Hopefully we'll get tethering figured out in the next few weeks and hopefully someone smarter than me is working on a way to download files to the phone

(did that all the time with mp3s on my tp1)
[HTC 7 Pro] LayneRobinson:
I would say that the two biggest gaps are tethering and 3G-only. That being said, I love the device so much that I easily overlook those features.
[HTC 7 Pro] tiny17:
I actually am fine with 3g. Almost everywhere I go has wifi. 4g kills battery life. 3g is pretty fast for most everything I do.

Mango will address every complaint I have, but until then, I am still a very happy camper.
[HTC 7 Pro] drelisimo:
I have not received the info, but after further research I just understood that I am asking stupid things.

Otherwise ... the phone is maybe the best piece of mobile hardware I have ever acquired.

Cheers.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Childofthehorn:
Original Post:

Hey guys,

After having no issue for the last month or so using CWM, tonight I booted into CWM as normal and then screen went blank.

I mean really blank, can't turn it off or on. Would a simple unplug of the battery and replug do the job or do I need to break out the JTAG setup? If JTAG is needed, does anyone know where that is on the board?

I did recently NVFlash from 1.1 to 1.2 so any advice on how to get this running again is invaluable as this tablet has info on it that I need to pull off. The only thing I can think of is if something in the recovery file got trashed and when it booted, it killed it.

Thanks in advance.

HOW TO:

Open up the Gtablet by removing the rubber pads on the back and unscrewing the screws seen. Then, using an iPod pry tool or flat screwdriver lift the casing snaps apart. Start at a corner and work your way through.

Locate the area in Red.

Now Unplug the battery, left speaker, and capacitive touch cables. Then go through and use a piece of copper braid on your finger or a grounding pad and ground out those connectors as well as surrounding capacitors (notice the two caps in the red box). *THIS IS A CRITICAL STEP*

Before putting the back on the tablet, throw the Tablet into AVX mode by pressing power and volume down. This will be the first test as to whether or not it worked.

Yays! We did it and did not have to break out the BusPirate to do JTAG!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Childofthehorn:
Figured out how to fix it and it was fairly simple. NVFLASH is God!

Like they say in IT:

"Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capt-Capsaicin:
Two suggestions.

One. Describe that the 4 screws in the corners under the rubber pads need to be removed.

Two. Describe how to ground out the capacitors. One side or both sides? Ground out the connectors on the battery side or the tablet side? Which contacts?

ON XDA it is always expected for us Noobs to read and follow exactly what those in the know have taken the time to write.

Thanks,

Jason
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmasephol:
I somehow ended up in a similiar scenario and used your instructions for getting back into APX mode. Problem is now that I have the stock ROM back installed and running I no longer have any response from the touch screen... any ideas on what may have happened.

Does anybody know which connectors/plugs are the touch screen, I want to make sure I didn't bump anything or knock anything loose.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cajoe64:
Worked for Me!

Thanks for the instructions and video. Although I did not ground any capacitors, the battery reset did the trick to bring my tablet back to life. You are appreciated!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Childofthehorn:
I updated the instructions, if anyone has this problem. Generally, unplugging + grounding + plugging it back in fixes most issues. Please send me a PM if you have a more serious problem and we can try to fix it, eh? (don't always re-check the thread...my bad)
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pattyboh:
Boot Issues

Ok, I can only boot my tablet via APX mode. I cannot enter CWM with power and volume +, the tablet does not respond to this, nor does it respond to just hitting the power button. Power and Volume - simultaneously does work so I know the power button works.

I was attempting to load CWM onto a stock 1.2 it didn't take or so I thought. So I attempted nvflash 1.2 boot with cwm and this is what I got. Did I lose a boot loader file somewhere?

I tried detox from gtabs for dummies. The only thing I haven't tried is completely draining the battery.

I am definitely perplexed. I have been flashing roms for about 6 months and have worked myself out of some soft bricks. This, I have not seen anyone talk about.

Thanks in advanced guys
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pahooboy:
Worked for me too!

I had the same problem of not being able to turn my g tablet on. I tried everything holding all buttons for various periods of time, connecting and disconnecting to power cord and usb cable to computer. No response. Panic was setting in. Then I came across this post.

I was thinking of calling ViewSonic to see if I could return it. Luckily I came across this post. Took off the back, unplugged and plugged in the battery (didn't do the grounding thing), and Voila! It was working again. This was such a simple solution that it didn't occur to me until my android phone did the exact same thing to me this morning. After freezes and other problems, I always just took my cover off and popped out the battery and pop it back in, and it works. Then I thought to myself, these tablets are nothing but big android phones. Let me try this solution.

Every question I've had, every problem I've come across, has been answered in these forums. I've never had to post a question because someone somewhere has already asked it and the answer was given.

Great job. Video was especially helpful. Thanks
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pattyboh:
Did you have reboot normally or with NVflash>?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pahooboy:
While the back was open, I went into APX to confirm that it was working. Then, I just booted up normally. Now, I found my market is not working and I can't update or download something from the Market. I also noticed that I had a couple of Force Closes. So, I am not 100% clear of problems. I am in the process of researching how I can fix the Market and Force Close. I'm thinking of starting all over again from the start with NVflash and reinstall my Honeycomb Rom - GtabComb, including partitioning anew.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pattyboh:
Ok great, so no nvflash necessary from APX?

theres a free way to get unlocked my htc ozone??... and im not able to get the code from verizon (USA) 'cause im not in that country anymore.. i was searching and i only find expensive sellers =\
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Letitride:
You might be out of luck b/c VZW (sometimes, AFAIK) changed the HTC default lock code for the GSM radio (SIM card) for global use - unless that orange Vodafone pre-installed card is still intact & possibly activated for roaming use with oversea carriers.

I paid for one of those eBay sim unlock code & it didn't work, called into VZW global support/tech help desk & agent had to lookup the code in their database and walked me thru the steps to unlock & reboot the phone, etc.

Depending on what country you are in & 3G bands use, you might not even get 3G coverage, just Edge - wifi still work - you might want to look at other options for a better smartphone.

BTW, I still have mine & keep it as a spare/backup on AT&T GSM and as wifi device, and set it to Airplane mode as a MP3 player.

Sorry, it's probably not the answer you are looking for & NOT being a customer, they will not give out the code.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBLogic:
Lets say im already on serendipity 7, naturally i have the GB bootloaders. Can I flash any GB ROM over serendipity, or do some GB firmwares not play well with others when flashing one over another?

Or is it pretty straight forward, if I'm already on Gingerbread, im good to go as far as flashing any other gingerbread ROM over the one im on?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
yes it should be pretty straight forward...unless you are switching to continuum(which has talon kernel and cwm 3) you need to odin talon first and then flash continuum from the orange cwm. if you were going to any other gb rom, say mosaic for example;), just wiping data/factory reset, wiping cache, and wiping dalvik cache then flashing the rom will be fine.

oh if youve done any converting to EXT4 (chainfire app, or voodoo lagfix) convert back to rfs first.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redkenji:
In the threads for each rom it should say which bootloaders its running and from which model, if it matches what you have it'll work. Just be careful with CM7 and MIUI because they use custom ones.
