[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] pinkjpr:
ITS NOT BRICKED I CAN BET ON THIS

Even I had the same problem ,I downloaded the official t-mobile update exe, but since I have been using HTC phones rite from Imate jam to kjam to jasjam to diamond to topaz till Leo so I found easily how to go back to 6.5 and also done for few local people, what I did is

1 Extract the tmobile update exe (see for the version which has ver. 3.03.0000 , u can find it on www.shippedroms.com or google it ) then using winrar extrect its content on your pc and rename the file RUU_Signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh

2 copied this file to my storage card and (fast use I keep a 2gb sd card and formatted &place the leoimg.nbh file to root of sd card so it looks like only 1file in storage card &no folders or anything)

3 turn off the device put the sd card & keep pressing volume down button and press power button to turn it on this will take u to 3 colored screen for a few second and then who loading on while screen if u have a proper matching leoimg on sd card then it will show u the contents i.e.

Radio v2

Splash

Bootloader

configdata

Os

And a few more things

now press the power button once and u can see the progress bar may be it mite restart ur phone but don't thing it screwed it will resume the update process & u will be back to ur stock rom

1 important point for u is that download the rom version 3.03 as it seems to me that u already have a stock spl and if u put un compatable rom then it won't move ahead from loading

Hope it helps u

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnirtS:
Im running an unbranded, unlocked desire with Froyo currently. Its rooted using unrevoked.

I want to flash to Insertcoin latest but got some confusion from reading the docs.

Do i need to run "revolutionary" to turn my current S-ON desire into S-OFF or will it install just fine without changing?

If so, will it work with the existing revoked/cm/root mod or not or do i have to remove that first?

Once im on the ROM how easy is it to go back to stock 2.2 ? Can i just take a nandroid backup from CM recovery and then restore that or will that not work?

Help with the above is appreciated, especially if i need to be S-OFF or not to install!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oneironautical:
I have a 7-inch Android Tablet, but I can find virtually no information about it. Is there any way to root a device like this? It is running 2.2.2 and has some loaded apps, but no market. The device is:

(triple w).35phone.com/35pad/index.html

You'll have to run the page through a translator (unless you read Chinese). What is possible with a device like this that does not show up on anyone's list of Android devices? I'm trying to put it through its paces, but this is difficult when the device is seemingly unknown. Perhaps there is some way to determine core components and extrapolate to similar devices?
[Nexus S Accessories] method2madness:
For a whopping $8.59, I decided to try one of those generic Korean-made 1500mah "standard" battery and wall charger combos from eBay and thought I'd do a review on them, since I've seen a few people ask. You can get them from Hong Kong sellers with 2 batteries for about the same price I paid for a single battery and charger, but this seller ships from the US (Brooklyn, NY) and it only took 3 days to get here vs 3-4 weeks from China.

Here's the product I bought

http://www.ebay.com/itm/330587141184

And here's just the battery

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1500mAh-Bat...962906?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5646336d5a

This is actually a surprisingly decent combo. The charger is no speed demon, but it definitely does the job and charges the 1500mah along with the stock 1440mah to 100%. The battery itself, is QUITE surprising. So much so, that I ordered another one. I would say it's at least in line with the stock battery. The phone's been off the charger for 9 hours and 33 minutes and is currently at 34% after pretty heavy usage (screen on a little over 1/4 brightness, surfing the web in Opera for 3 hours total, about 30 text messages, reading emails periodically, made a few changes to the calendar, farted around on and downloaded 4 apps from the market, made some widget and homescreen changes, took 3 10 minute phone calls and did 2 full nandroid backups in CWM).

This is quite surprising, as these generic batteries usually end up sucking pretty badly. I just hope it's longevity is equally impressive. I have a feeling it's life-span isn't going to be quite as long as the stock battery, but for $9 WITH a charger, I won't feel too bad if it's not. :)

They're either fakes, or refurbs. You can find the stock battery, but not for $5. I bought one and didn't realize until it was too late, its a refurb (i.e. used) and it wouldn't hold a charge.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jark99:
I flashed my brothers phone with a JVR Korean firmware, the reception was terrible. I then proceeded to flash the JH2 firmware, thinking i could use that and upgrade to kies. BUT SMALL PROBLEM.

i found the firmware, flashed it along with csc and modem. but now when i open kies, it shows the JH2 Firmware in the software version area, but then besides JH2 its says (KOR).

I tried the reg hack, nothing worked, apparently my product code in "rededit" is set to the kor version, i tried changing it but nothing......how do i fix this?. its really pissing me off :(

edit** if i wanted, if its too much trouble to get back to stock, could i theoretically from froyo get cf root on it? then install gingerbread roms after flashing CWM through rom manager? :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Try this to change your product code:

*#272*imei#*

Where imei# is the actual imei # to the phone.

Please keep in mind, changing this will wipe the phone to factory default
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jark99:
SO when i do that i can change the product code right? not the IMEI code? cause i dont really feel comfortable changing the imei code :s

EDIT* thaat code wont work!!

---------- Post added at 11:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 PM ----------

Hey the code didnt work! and i also reflashed using odin! it shows on KIES all the CSC: JH2, PDA: JH2 but after JH2 it says (KOR) and "this version cannot be updated." :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
is the phone rooted?

Best course of action if you want official stock 2.3.3 on the phone would be if it was rooted, then download SpoofFw from the market and change the firmware to the Canadian region one. I believe the program sets the phone to JL2.

After that, plug it into kies, it should want to update to KC1 first, then to KG3 (2.3.3).

After that, the product code will most likely still be KOR. If it is, do the code I mentioned above and change it to BMC.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jark99:
I was using this method

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835628

phone is NOT rooted, but apparently using this you can just trick kies, and it should push a update! BUT everytime kies wants to start sending the update, my usb disconnects!?? and its only when kies wants to push the update to the phone :(:(

edit** i also tried flashing CF root thorough ODIN, has 2 files, the pit, and the pda CF root file...when flashed my screen just stuck at the GT I9000M logo..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Unless I'm wrong, that method hasn't worked in a while.

If you can root your phone, do so.. its pretty easy after that.

If you don't want to root, then download KC1 from samfirmware, and install it via odin. after that KIES should update to KG3. If it doesn't, I know the code I mentioned above works on both Froyo and Gingerbread.

However if your phone is still disconnecting, you may have to reinstall the drivers for the phone on your PC.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jark99:
Can you link me to it? i cant seem to find it, i have a username also :s

edit* found it, will try flashing and hopefully this works :)

---------- Post added at 01:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

So i downloaded the KC1 firmware, and inside the rar file is called a I9000UGKC1_homebinary.rar, and inside that when extracted is a modem,zimgage, and other junk files....what am i supposed to load on the phone?

I dont see any csc, or modem files, is that huge homebinary supposed to be flashed on pda? so all your flashing is PIT and PDA?...

editt** never mind, you just put the huge file on pda, and select the pit and flash :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Are you sure its a .rar file you downloaded and not a .tar?

If its a .tar, just put it in the PDA section of ODIN. Do not unrar or untar it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jark99:
Ok thank you so much Greeced, who sat here with me for the past little while triyng to fix this problem! After flashing the KC1 firmware, Kies now is updating my firmware....as of right now its backing up all my files. Once again thanks sooo much. Another reason why i love xda. They always help with all 3 smartphones ive had :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Ha, you're lucky you had a question to the one problem I knew the answer to... I'm still very new to all this too... And many have helped me.

Glad it worked... Just remember if the product code is still KOR, the code above will now work.

Edit* - and for good measure, once the phone is back on KG3 and the BMC product code, be sure to boot into recovery mode and wipe cache and factory default to clear any residuals that may have remained behind. Otherwise you may get a few force closes.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jark99:
Running into another problem, it will say checking firmware bla bla, downloading, but then my gt on the bottom right corner of kies, says "connection lost." it keeps doing this and is getting rather annoying....

edit** IMEI code did the change thingy, will test again...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeced:
Ok try this:

Before you do anything, boot into recovery mode and wipe cache and factory default, then try KIES again. If it still doesn't work:

1. Go into device manager with the phone plugged in, and remove the samsung drivers (uninstall).

2. Disconnect your phone.

3. Uninstall KIES.

4. Restart your computer

5. Download a fresh copy of KIES and install it.

6. Plug your phone in and have it install the drivers.

7. Run KIES and try it again.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bortak:
So my brother just got a X10 Mini and wanted me to root it.

So, I rooted it, unlocked bootloader, put CWM recovery into system/bin along with chargermon and busybox.. tried to install cyanogen mod (and did, and google apps, and did) then used flashertool to flash the kernel.. and now the phone doesn't boot into recovery, and it doesn't boot... just gets stuck on the CM7 logo...

help please!

I'm guessing I'd have to flash something like a RUU (I'm familiar with HTC Phones ^_^).. SEUS right? Can anyone give me any pointers on how I'm meant to do that?

Okay, so I managed to flash .sin files and got the stock ROM on the phone, and it boots.. but the touch screen doesn't work!!!! someone help!!

I downloaded E10i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Generic.zip, created the ftf file by using the batch option in flashtool, and flashed it - so everything should now be stock.

The phone boots in to the system, however the touchscreen does not work.

Im looking to grab a cheap windows 7 tablet for testing Windows 8 on.

I will probably (If I like it) get a better/higher spec device later but for now just want something cheap to play with.

So what is the cheapest device you know of atm, either old/new that runs Windows 7 or maybe Vista?
[Windows 8 General] jeremyshaw:
The Acer W500, iirc?

EDIT: there are Atom powered 300usd tablets, too. But the Acer W500 is powered by a tweaked AMD C-50 APU :)
[Windows 8 General] bbmalver:
If you're in the UK, even for cheap there's good and bad tablets!

The bad: there's an endless variety of form factors that you can probably obtain to run Win8 on, but the likelyhood of getting a return on value for money is questionable. Most of them are [shipped] from asia, and as such you have to factor in delivery times too. 70% will be between 800x400 to 1024x600, which won't be enough to run the Metro apps.

The good (AFAIK): There are only two relatively inexpensive (below £500) tablets that I'm aware of (the two other good/valued ones are over £500)

below: Zoostorm SL8, Acer Iconia W500/W501 - between £450 to £530

above: MSI Windpad 110w, Asus Transformer 121 - between £579 to £800

Of course you can try looking for the 'below' tablets second-hand; I saw the W500 listed at CEX [online]for £329 (b grade).

So have a search! (Hope that helps).

By the way the W500 is 1280x800 @ 10.1"; so can run metro but won't 'snap'

The Zoostorm is 1366x768 @ 11.6" and can 'snap'

Acer Iconia Tab W500

Been running W8 x64 on an Inconia Tab for about a week now and I would highly recommend it as a good W8 test platform. MS is using the device themselves in their lab so there is at least a resonable chance that future builds will continuw to work well with it.

Only hardware that won't work correctly is the Bosch accelerometer (the drivers can be manually installed in both the x86 and x64 versions but you W8 automatically disables it with a driver stability warning)

I did swap out the 32GB SSD with an 80GB Intel 310 MSATA. Major pain in the a#@ to get the unit open but I wanted the extra space. With the Intel SSD I'm consistently seeing ~10 second cold-boot times...

Keyboard is kinda sucky but I bought the thing to be a tablet so it wasn't that big a deal to me.

At $498.00 (off Amazon) the price is very reasonable given the hardware it is using.

[General Questions and Answers] Shiping:
Are you going to buy an Android tablet if iPad is same price as Android tablets? I am talking not RSRP, but something like $350 (I know it is not gonna happen, just assumption).

I have an Archos 70, an Acer Iconia A500, two iPod touch, a plam pixi plus, a kindle and several laptops. I can do Jailbreak, homebrew, rooting or anything like this.

While I do appreciate the versatility of Android, I do find them not reliable, and can not be trusted for serious work related stuff. Say, I just spent an hour try to figure out why my Iconia can not connect to my work wifi. It works sometime, but not always. When I need to quick check emails or something, it just loops around there obtaining IP. And as for Archos 70, more than 70% of time it is in this mode, and makes it almost useless (is this why they name it 70?).

People may say my work wifi has problem. Maybe, but all other devices work fine including itouch, Kindle, palm. What should I say?

I have custom rom on my Iconia.

So for me, if I can buy iPad at $350, I will definitely go with it. I got Iconia only because iPad is way overpriced, and I do not like the ecosystem of Apple.

So, how you guys think? if you have the choice, what do you pick?
