[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
Hello, First time Poster here, please bare with me...

I really shouldn't of touched this.....

I have an Atrix w/ the newest updates to it, and attempted to unlock the phone. Using the guide from atrix4ghacks.com Everything started well, then it failed while writing to the device. Now, when I attempt to boot, I get the message

SVF:405;1:2

Failed to boot 0x1000

1- RSD

2-Fastboot

3-NVflash

4- BP HW Bypass RSD

5-BP HW Bypass QC DLOAD

6-BP HW Bypass & Boot AP

7-BP HW Bypass BP only

8- BP SW Bypass RSD

9- Andriod recovery

10- Boot Andriod (no BP)

11- Device UID

12- Console

13- Early USB

14- BP tools

I can get into fastboot, though I honestly am not sure what to do from there. I have the fastboot s/w downloaded, along with the gingerbread OS. When I tried to execute the command via Command prompt. I keep getting unknown command errors (yes, directories within the command are good).

Did I just kill my phone?

I have found a few posts here related to this, though I havent found what seems to be a solid answer to a "fix" for this. I would highly appreciate if someone could try to help me with this.

Sorry, I have broken a noob rule (was pretty late when I watched the video), I thank you all in advanced for any help

STOP!!! YOU HAVEN"T KILLED YOUR PHONE JUST YET!

BUT IF YOU SBF YOU WILL!!!

Go into fastboot and repeat all of the unlock commands, reboot and your phone should boot fine after that.

:cool:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
Ok, I will give that a shot!

Hopefully this will work. THANK YOU!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
Ok, is there a way to force charge this?

I had it hooked up and when I was going to execute the flash, it gave the message of battery too low to flash.... Will just leaving it plugged in be ok? or is there a button function I can do that will ensure it charges the unit?

Thanks again
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Ugh... from what I heard the battery won't charge while in fastboot mode. You need a standalone charger or a different battery.

So, it doesn't let you get into fastboot at all, huh?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
I was afraid of that- I think ive found the solution to that on this link:

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-labs/146492-how-why-make-your-own-motorola-factory-cable.html

That is def. something I can do, and will try. Otherwise, to answer your question. The PC sees the device- It is then the device that says battery is too low to flash (on any mode you choose). Once that message is shown, it wont allow me to access it at all.

Worse to worse, I will take a trip to the att store, or somewhere close to see if they have a wall or base charger. If the doc has a separate power connector, I may try that...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
The factory cable would allow you to use the phone without the battery, but it might take more money and time to make then you think.

From what I understand, RSD threw you an error when you were flashing bootloader unlock.

Anyway, you need to find a way to charge your battery and they do the fastboot unlock commands.

If that doesn't work you need to reflash the pudding SBF, (make sure you install the drivers Windows x64 version here prior to flashing and that your phone is recognized in RSDlited)

Get the correct pudding file from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1136261

Use instructions here (start at step 1) : http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader

Note that after pudding is flashed successfully and you do the unlock commands, you will get a failed to boot error (seems like what you have now). You need to redo the unlock commands in fastboot and it will fix the problem.

Good luck.!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
Alright!

Got the cable completed and works!

So, battery situation is handled, now to follow your steps

THANK YOU! I will report back and let you know.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
Ok,

Clearly I am doing something wrong here.....

I followed the instructions using the newest Pudding_preroot.sbf file, and the RSD software sees the device (as a SE flash not a NS if that matters) and will start the flashing process.

Everything works to plan until the phone does its reboot(99$ executed), gives the fail to boot message again. Then wants to start back up in RSD mode.... The RSD application on the otherhand, it seems like its trying to switch the phone to"BP passthrough mode" I do not see that exact option, and after it failed while rebooting to RSD. I tried to move it to fastboot, BP HW Bypass RSD, and finally BP SW bypass RSD... All with the same failure on the RSD screen:

"Failed Flashing Process. Phone (0000): Error switching to BP Pass through mode (0x70BE); phone connected"

I have a funny feeling that this part is obvious, for that I am sorry for my ignorance.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
I am pretty sure this thing is toast...

After getting nowhere after step 12, and multiple attempts to install the pudding_preroot file. I did some searching around and found multiple atrix users that would get the same issues. From the flash showing up as SE rather than NE, to the constant failing during the flash via RSD lite, with the same failure errors.

I noticed a "NV flash" option, and found this link that could establish a recovery USB driver to the phone. Do you think this maybe my next best route?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1123429

My factory cable is good, so that option IS open..... Though I am starting to think this is toast.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggytom:
We cannot use NVFlash unless we get the SBK (signature file). Currently, we do not have it. Motorola does, so plead to them :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grumbles:
OK, well now it decided to only mount itself as a unknown APX device... Not sure the whats or whys there. Nothing has changed since the last failures?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xploited:
Hey man, I think RSD shows the flashing process as failed since it can't fully reboot the phone.

Go into fastboot mode and try doing the unlock commands. (try this twice if ita fails after the first time).

In the worst case scenario if unlocking fails no matter what, you can flash a complete 2.3.4 rom via SBF and that should get you back up and running.

Let us know how it goes.

Remember, if you can get into RSD or fastboot - the phone isn't bricked yet!

Hi

I own a HTC desire HD, running SENSE UI, so I use to be able to maipulate separate desktops on this smartphone (Gingerbread 2.3, Sense 3.0).

As it seems it is not possible to such things on the built-in Iconia Application launcher, could you tell me if you use an alternative launcher, which one, and if it is optimized for the tablet ?

Thanks

Nico
[Acer Iconia A500] vari9:
You could use either adw launcher or launcher pro or spb shell 3d..(a bit pricy...but it deserves $15)...personally...i find the stock one better.....
[Acer Iconia A500] timmytutone:
I love zeam on my phones and just side loaded it on the iconia but it wasn't good. Tiny little icons and the widgets (cnn and news 360) looked terrible or didn't work at all. Uninstalled it after screwing around with it for an hour.
[Acer Iconia A500] fiveoh:
I'm using launcher pro and it works pretty good. I like the Widgets it provides.
[Acer Iconia A500] O.a.T.:
I bought spb 3d shell at a discounted price of about $11 US and like it very much on the iconia a500. Very fast and smooth and nicely "showy" too.
[Acer Iconia A500] CLMT:
I don't need them now that I have a sense UI phone but go launcher is free and you get the widgets for free unlike launcherpro. You can also do 3d homescreen effects. A lot of people hate on it but I like it.
[Galaxy S II General] ThaiM:
I calibrated my stock battery from 100%->0%->100% and Battery Monitor Widget Pro now shows 1747mAh with min 3420mV and max 4192mV.

Anyone else get similar stats?

But the most I can get is about 10 hrs of moderate usage...
[Galaxy S II General] turbobaz:
funny, I calibrated yesterday and got the exact same mAh. Though my most recent one set it at 1685 4197 / 3430
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
These are the Galaxy S II Boot and Shutdown animations with corresponding sounds (GINGERBREAD ONLY).

Instructions for CWM:

Put GB_S2_Boot-and-Shutdown.zip on the root of your SD card

Power off your phone

Hold Volume Up & Volume Down while pressing the power button to enter CWM

Choose "Install zip from sd card"

Choose "Choose zip to install"

Select GB_S2_Boot-and-Shutdown.zip

Confirm selection

Choose "***go back***"

Choose "reboot phone"

Enjoy new animations!

If, for some really strange reason you're *not* running drhonk's amazing KG4 kernel w/red cwm & ext4 support, then you will need to remount /system as read/write, push the contents of /system from the zip file to /system on your phone, and then make sure all the files have the right permissions (644 or 0644).

It worked.. Cooooolll
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nOl3ell:
it's work but i can't hear the sound
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
Try flashing it, again. Maybe the sound files didn't take or the permissions didn't set. I can hear both sounds. If that doesn't work, get back to me and we'll try some troubleshooting :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] nOl3ell:
Thx bro....and how can i set permissions (644 or 0644)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
In a terminal or adb shell, the command is chmod

# chmod 644 /system/media/bootsamsung.qmg

You'll have to remount /system as read/write first, though (I use root explorer for such things). Did you try just re-flashing the zip, first?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikeflash:
thanks it worked great! Didn't like that it actually says SGS II, but other than that it's a good boot animation... better than stock pink gay one.

**presses thanks button**
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lordxavier:
works great! Glad that the tmobile epileptic pink text screen is now gone for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bbobarino:
I flashed twice and still no sound? Well I shouldn't say no sound cuz I heard the sound 5 times outta 20 only works sumtimes any suggestions its not that big of a deal as long I it ain't that gay pink Tmobile one lol
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
The sound is pretty quiet for me, but I'd say I hear it 6 out of 10 times on average. No suggestions, though.. Sorry.. If anybody can shed any light it would be appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rjgalanza:
Love it!!!

this is really nice! :) I love it! thanks Jay
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] killnkajun:
Quick question, When I boot into recovery it does not have an option to install zip from SD? it just says reinstall packages,delete user data, delete cash ?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Zixx:
You need to intall one od Dr.honk's kernel and what ROM are you.on?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
That's standard Samsung Recovery. You need to do this from ClockworkMod recovery (CwM).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] killnkajun:
Yeah I'm stock, but rooted. I'm not comfortable flashing custom roms yet

I don't really see that much difference or enough difference to flash a custom rom

But I really dont like the pink "gay" boot screens ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] virajss:
If you are rooted, follow this thread to change the pink boot animations to SII ones.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1209211
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Jay Aristide:
Yeah, what he said :) If you pull apart the .zip file I have here, you can easily push all of these files to their appropriate places, yourself.

It's worth mentioning, though, that the shutdown file in my zip won't work with your phone, as you're not running gingerbread. The shutdown animation for Froyo is actually a series of .png images, a configuration file, and a .ogg sound file.... There are at least two threads on these forums that explain how to replace the froyo shutdown animation with the one from the stock Galaxy S
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shawnshine:
Gorgeous animation. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] killnkajun:
Well I jumped in neck deep, got the new GB and doc's kernel.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efox662:
Hello everyone. Yesterday was playing around with my newly rooted Desire and screwed up some things. I thought my stock rom was backed up, but it was not. I was able to find an OTA copy of my stock rom, but it is not flashable. I tried changing the name to update.zip but was that unsucessful. My phone just spit out a bunch of errors. Does anyone have the stock rom or a Nandroid backup for a Cellular South Desire(CDMA) that's flashable? Or is there any way to make the OTA update flashable? I am currently running US Cellular rom but I'm having reception issues.

Are you sure there is 3G network? If so, did you make sure that in APN list there is the one provided by your carrier for 3G ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vj1:
Yups I m sure that here in pune there is a 3g network and as I said I have already unchkd use only 2g network option..bt still can't get 3g signal...so is there any additinal settings that I mst do...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adil_:
Have you checked your APN settings?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
Uncheck 2g mode only. If still you not see 3g symbol at left side of signal then in network setting go network operators and search available networks and choose airtel 3g.if still not get then go into keypad and type *#*#4636#*#* and select option phone imformation and in that you see gsm auto selected. In that choose wcdma only and press turn off radio then press turn on radio now press home button(not back button). You will get 3g. If not then reboot. I hope this will help you
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] iceman2029:
You are using the wrong ROM or MODEM file with a Band Operator that's not supported for your company. Review the frecuency of your operator for 3G. Then, flash your phone with the correct ROM.

Hello everybody!

I installed the rom version 2.3.4 (vivo - Brazil) in my galaxy s5830L (3g 850/1900MHz). My mobile carrier works with 3G 2100MHz, so I can not connect to 3G only 2G (edge​​).

Do you know if there is any possibility to enable 2100MHz in s5830L 3G?

Thank you!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vj1:
Hey really thnks for ur help...bt I want to clear some doubts see as u said i mst select airtel 3g bt problem is in network operators I m jst getting airtel option not airtel 3g.

And in second method after entering that code u said to press home button is it the that big middle button..and how to again stop 3g...

Most imp I chked in samsung monte with same sim card of airtel in same area bt in that mobile 3g signal came immediately...

See I know I m asking u many ? Bt plz try to understand I'm new to this!!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vj1:
How to review frequency of operator for 3g..

And one more thing when I tried with same sim card in same area on samsung monte I immediately got 3g signal jst after selecting 3g mode..so I want to know do u still think there is a problem with rom....
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vj1:
Hey I tried ur method of dialing that code and then changing it to WCDMA mode ..after selecting this option for some time in status it shows no connection like a white circle with cross line in it and after few seconds it again shows Edge connection ..and again u enter that code in that network type option it again automatically gets change to gsm auto!!

Now I m really getting frustrated by this problem I called Samsung helpline they said for using 3g in some mobiles u have to do a Software Update in Samsung Service centre after which u will get that 3g/dual network mode option in ur Mobile network settings like other mobiles, bt I doubt if they can really help me bcozz about 2 months ago I had already done a Firmware update earlier its version was KC1 and after update its version is KC7 which i think is the latest version of Firmware available in India for Samsung galaxy ace. I said this to Samsung technical Support but they say that Software update and Firmware Update are completely Differnet things…

So I want to know whether this Software update and Firmware update are this realy different Or its same. I have also Noticed one more thing in “Samsung galaxy Fit “also there is no Option like 3g/dual Network mode to Enable 3g!! is that option diabled in all galaxy Ace & Fit models or is it only in my cell???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
After selecting wcdma only turnoff radio and again turn on radio then push middal button called home button. When you doesnt want 3g mode tick on 2g mode only.

I also suffer from same problem when i use bsnl3g. You should camplain in airtel servise center because it is not fault of mobile but fault of network provider. If you want to chek then insert other sim and uncheck on 2g only and select access poit . If you get 3g then your mobile is not in fault. I want to know that you get 2g internet on that airtel card? And you choose access point?if not then select access point
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vj1:
dude i think u are not reading my posts completely..i can say this bcozz right from my first post of this thread i m mentioning that with same sim card of airtel i m getting edge connection..and the problem is not with sim card its with cell itself bcozz when i tried same sim card in other mobile i immediately got 3g signal in same area..that bcozz after lots of search on google i saw that many are facing this problem of 3g not connecting..its due to a software bug in froyo 2.2.1 so people say only way to solve this problem is we will have to upgrade our froyo to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 this might solve our problems bt still i have some queries which i have to clear like see if u can ans them :

1. which one will be better to go with android 2.3.3 Gingerbread or 2.3.4 Gingerbread for Samsung galaxy ace I mean which one has less problems and will solve my 3g problem!!

2. after unofficially upgrading to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 will I be able to officially upgrade to 2.3.5 through kies in future.

3. For upgrading to 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 is it necessary to root the phone..

4. how much time does a whole upgrade process takes if my internet speed is Minimum 1Mbps…

5. How to come back to 2.2.1 Froyo Default version from 2.3.3 or 2.3.4(Steps with video or Img link will be very helpful)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
Update to 2.3.4 is realy easy and not require root. You should first download 2.3.4 flash file and after download use odin to install flash file. When official update comes you can downgrade your phone to froyo so kies update it to latest version so chill.

My email is nirmitkarsanbhaipatel@gmail.com

contact me i will explain you how to update to 2.3.4 and where to download
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] vj1:
K gr8 ..jst 2 questions how to downgrade back to froyo 2.2.1 I mean steps... And secondly does 2.3.4 gives any problem I mean any hangs, etc...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] nims11:
2.3.4 not hang atall. It remove lags from many games. I use it from 2 months and not get any problem. So just update. And abowt downgrade i post in my blog tomorrow. I hope you undarstand because you need to flash two firmware to get ddkc1(indian firmware)firmware back. So wait for that. But i ensure you that you will not downgrade in near future because gingerbread rocks

1.is it possible change the band?

2. If it is possible, how we can change, upgrade to new firmware ?

p.s. I have upgraded it to GINGERBREAD.UBKP7
