reliable connection cannot be established

I have 2 PEs....The first setup went off without a hitch. In fact I was able to use microSD throughout the whole process. It is working like a dream and I cannot give enough thanks to all who made it happen.

The 2nd seemed to be perfect, but it cannot seem to connect to google. I tried through market, sync account, gmail app...it always says a reliable connection cannot be established.

I looked through the file to see if the serial # was in...answer YES.

....I put the 2 side by side next to my WiFi router and PE#1 connects fine so the WiFi is not the problem. It worked just fine before running 2.2....

any suggestions?

oh yeah...the browser reaches the internet just fine.

edit.....have tried 3x from step 1 with same results. I will run it without Allmine and be only somewhat disappointed if I must. Am I the only one with this problem? Any insight would be GREATLY apprecited.

Also posted at mobileread.

edit......I just set up gmail in FROYOMAIL app.....no problem. Still not establishing a reliable data connection in Market, Accounts and sync, gmail app....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] neweDGeowner:
Thank you SOO much!

Hi, I just got the eDGe from a guy on Amazon, and I spent a good couple of hours trying to get the update to work through several different USB drives to no avail. I don't know why I didn't think of it, but your instruction to use the micro SD card was brilliant! started and finished the update procedure on the first try.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Javier_K81:
I have same problem

I made same as you... and I can't access to Gmail, neither market... I followed instructions step by step but nothing about GOOGLE works... somebody may help me?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] friartek:
Was looking for something else, when I ran across your request. To know if it updated the PE will think it is a Nexus One. You can verify this by going into Settings -> About eDGe. The

Model number

should read Nexus One instead of edgejr. Apps should pick up that info, and in the case of Market, supply it to Google.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jbsoc400e:
Pocket Edge "Can't Estabish a reliable data connection"

Well, went through the excellent instructions, but still can't get to market because of the message: "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your phone may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care"

I'm calling XDAdevelopers customer care!

On my end,

Model number: Nexus One (is showing up instead of Edge)

Also version is 2.2.

Thanks so much!

Peace

Hi Ras4man,

Help please.

Got as far as allmine -- still can't get apps.

In spite of a great connection, getting connection error only when trying to get to market.

Interestingly enough, gmail through Froyo mail syncs perfectly, so does twitter.

Ideas?

Also serial number comes up as 14 digits too. And Nexus shows as model number.

Thanks

Peace
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jbsoc400e:
Further note about not getting to Market

Also, another message, says that "your phone may not be provisioned"....

So any ideas my colleagues?

Possible answer to the login loop problem

I had a similar experience when I tried the update. Here's how i got around it.

Used a 4gd MicroSD card for all updates.

Downgraded to Dingo as per instructions.

Upgraded to Ermine GE as per instructions.

Upgraded to Allmine and GApps. (note this failed twice until I realised that i had downloaded the WRONG GApps file). Go the the bottom of the GApps wiki page as per instructions

Go to CyanogenMod 6, fourth download along under the heading HDPI and download this version

Follow the instructions as before. I know this is probably obvious to many of the folk here but I managed to get it wrong:rolleyes:. I hope it works for others that might have the same problem.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] arti fufkin:
Re: Possible answer to the login loop problem

Just upgraded my second Pocket Edge using the same process and all went well. The only difference being that I'd never updated this one so started at the Ermine GE upgrade.

Many thanks to all who made all this possible.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Doosh:
So I'm on step 5 and my PE has been displaying the "Updating Software" graphic for over an hour now...

I'm sure this is abnormal, right? Now what?

EDIT

Figured I had nothing to lose so I poked it with a paperclip. It booted into Dingo. No problems. Now on to step 6. Odd, though that it wouldn't perform the reboot after the update... Oh well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jkpq45:
Thank you, sir, for making this as painless as possible. Worked flawlessly after I RTFM.

I did, worked like a charm! Downgrade to Dingo took a long time at the "updating" screen and had to do a soft reset--see comment below.

Upgrade from Ermine to Allmine+Gapps took (seriously) a solid 5 minutes. My fingers started to hurt--I was getting pretty anxious that my PE was bricked, but then the "updating" screen popped up and I was really relieved. Have faith!

I was unaware my PE shipped to me with Froyo already installed--so when I tried to update to Froyo, things did not go as planned. I'm living proof that, if you start at step 1 and follow through to completion (even using a USB drive for all three update steps,) your patience will be rewarded.

Agreed, had to do this when going down to Dingo. It stuck on the "updating" screen for about half an hour, had to poke the button and do a soft reset.

tl;dr--Noob succeeded after *mostly* following the instructions. His status has been upgraded to Noob+.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] silverfoxx:
Cannot downgrade to Dingo

So, I initially started with the Ermine update. That went fine.

Then I tried the Allmine update and ended up with the Setup FC loop.

I decided I'd try the downgrade to Dingo and start over...

I have tried this using both the USB drive and the SD card and it either:

1. Non-stop loops the initialization screen forever until I let go of the buttons and let it boot back up to the Setup FC loop.

2. Gets to the Upgrade screen for about a second, then goes back to the initialization screen and back to number 1 above.

I am about to throw the thing out the window.

Please help. Why will it not downgrade??????
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rast4man:
I'm envious you can at least get boot loops. I can't install from either USB or See Card. No matter which version I try to flash or what I've been trying to do to here it back to factory, absolutely nothing works. It just sits there with the Android logo then it won't do a damn thing. I too .about to throw this damn thong in the pool--literally.

Don't know how to help with your situation but I just Had to vent my frustration. Good luck chief.

Flash drive updates

I have tried several different flash drives (I even bought 3 new ones) and I cannot seem to get into the updating mode. Right now I am on Steps one & two trying to go back to Dingo. But I couldn't make it work at step 11 either. My fingers are wiped and it has been going for a half an hour. Any suggestions??? Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dhbang:
Okay - finally made it!

For me, there were several tricks:

1. I removed the ".zip" from "update.zip" and the other files

2. I tried multiple flash drives

3. I had to use the reset before going on to Step 6

AND 4. MY wife helped me with a McGyver trick to avoid finger fatigue. I scotch-taped a small pill (prescription med) to the pad area of a bandaid. Then I applied this enhanced bandaid over the two keys. Then I used duct tape to hold the PE closed while I turned it on. The only problem was knowing what was happening but with the flash drive it was easy to tell when it had finished the cyclings.

And voila... it works!!

Thanks to everyone!

By the way - how do I get the journal capability back?

Misleading title!

thanks to your misleading title "Entourage Pocket Edge" i bricked my Entourage Edge and nothing online helps recover it..

i tried everything.. serial connection.. tftp server.. I even installed Ubuntu trying to fix it and nothing more to say..

there is Pocket Edge and Entourage Edge, but Entourage Pocket Edge seems like a universal backup to both..

all online and forum resources discuss how to fix the Pocket Edge and here I am stuck with my bricked thing..

Please, next time be professional and make sure you type the right title specially when there is a BIG CHANCE of bricking !!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] daoist:
Very sorry about your entourage edge.

I do hope you manage to unbrick it. If you do, please make the community better by posting a guide.

Again, very sorry about your EE.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kolibrik:
Hi, I just spent an hour researching this, but to no avail. So....

I bought today an HD2 of CL and it had Android Gingerbread installed. I entered bootloader and say that it had HSPL 2.08 installed so I tried to install WM 6.5 Stock ROM 3.14. It started flashing but at 8% it froze. I let it sit for about half an hour and it did not do anything. I unplugged it and took out battery. After I restarted it it said that the last flash failed and to try again. I plugged it in and tried again, but after I start flashing the phone vibrates seven times and stops at 8% again. On teh side note it seems that the phone is not charging as the redlight does not come on when I plugged it in.

It seems that I cannot enter the bootloader anymore as when I start the phone it goes into the "Flashing failed..." screen.

I am not sure what to do at this point, so I thought I would check before I destroy the phone any further. Thank you for your advice and sorry if I did not research enough. :-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Stephen:
It looks as if you have been sold a broken 2nd hand device. The vibrates usally means there is something wrong with the motherboard or processor. It would return it and ask for your money back!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
yea i agree with the above, get your money back if poss.

Also, sticking at 8% (or 9 or 10) is a hint that the radio is stuck. if you ever get an sd card flash to start, look out for 'radio rsa fail' error.
[General Questions and Answers] tecknogod:
I have a NTELOS SHOWCASE \ Galaxy S Sch-i500 that is not in a happy place right now. Encountered a bad flash and did not backup phone before I did it. The only way to get the phone unbricked was to use a US Cellular Mesmerize flash to get it back up and going. Unfortunately I cannot get any data access on the NTELOS network with it for some reason. I can make and receive calls and text messages but no data!

Is there ANYBODY out there that has a full flash for the ntelos showcase? Any kind of flash? odin, cm recovery backup? whatever!

If there is anybody who can help be bring my phone back to stock ntelos again or atleast help me get my data connectivity back using my current US Cellular firmware that would be most appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] maxaddict:
Hi, I was wondering if you ever got any resolution on this. I actually flashed mine to a point of having nothing, but finally figured out how to get my phone to work again - however I'm still having trouble with the data. Any help is appreciated.

[General Questions and Answers] tecknogod:
Unfortunately no. I did find an odin backup for the phone and I loaded it on and the phone is "working" again but its not on any network for some reason. Cant do *228 because it finds nothing and says failed. So its just dead in the water I guess.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Here be dragons

This post is for features present in the kernel that are "use at your own risk" - They have either potential or guaranteed negative side effects if used.

Overclocking (CPU):

Enable using SetCPU or a similar app

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. DO NOT REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS IF YOU ARE OVERCLOCKING OR UNDERVOLTING. IF YOU EXPERIENCE ANY STABILITY PROBLEMS, DISABLE ALL OC/UV

Overclocking (GPU):

See Ninphetamine kernel for documentation - Same control method

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. DO NOT REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS IF YOU ARE OVERCLOCKING. IF YOU EXPERIENCE ANY STABILITY PROBLEMS, DISABLE ALL OC

Per-File fsync() disable:

This allows you to disable per-file write forced syncs. (e.g. if an app tries to force a write straight to disk, it'll just go to cache). This achieves the same goal as the modded sqlite hacks seen in tweaks such as USAS, however it can be disabled at runtime.

WARNING: THIS CAN CAUSE DATA LOSS OR CORRUPTION IN A CRASH

To enable, do the following in a terminal, or add it to an init.d script (look at my ondemand script as an example):

echo "1" > /sys/module/sync/parameters/fsync_disabled

And to disable (return to the default):

echo "0" > /sys/module/sync/parameters/fsync_disabled

Good for around 200 points of epeen in the database benchmarks in Antutu or 500-600 points of epeen in Quadrant. Real-world benefit: Probably not worth the data integrity risk, but you've got a choice now.

Backlight Notifications (BLN):

This allows the touchkey backlights to be used for notifications. Some stock apps (such as stock MMS) don't support it. Supposedly services.jar mods can change this.

This WILL drain your battery when a notification is active due to a wakelock that holds deep sleep. Sorry, it's either this or instability for the time being.

In addition to the BLN control app, the ROM needs a modified liblights file for this to work

Attached here - Liblights - both BLN-modified (extracted from VillainROM 3.0) and stock I777

To install, take the file and push it to /system:

adb remount
adb push <file> /system/lib/hw/lights.SGH-I777.so
adb chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/lights.SGH-I777.so

Then reboot

Note that on a Hellraised ROM, you need to replace SGH-I777 with GT-I9100. This includes manually ported ROMs like Cognition 777

Like my prerooted system image, this file is compressed using 7-Zip to prevent people from trying to flash it with CWM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
OK, right now this post only has documentation of one "special but safe" feature:

To enable debugging of high deleted_wake_locks time, I've set this up to allow wake_lock_destroy() to be debugged without enabling DEBUG_WAKE_LOCK (which spams dmesg with a ton of stuff not needed for wake_lock_destroy() debugging). To enable, add 32 to the value of /sys/module/wakelock/parameters/debug_mask - This defaults to 3, so the proper value is 35.

echo "35" > /sys/module/wakelock/parameters/debug_mask

Return this to 3 to set it back to the default.

With this, you'll see wake_lock_destroy debugging information in your dmesg output. This is only needed if you have very high deleted_wake_locks times.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Shouldn't be any difference in speed - might even be slightly slower since I make conservative governor default for battery saving purposes. You can change this with SetCPU.

In About Phone, yes. If you use a more advanced info tool that shows the localversion, the git tag should be appended and the user@host build info should be adodd@quadmonkey. I'm going to be adding a CONFIG_LOCALVERSION tag in the future.

No, GPU overclocking isn't in there yet.

I've got enough experimental stuff in there right now to add another potentially destabilizing feature until the current featureset is well-tested.

My current plans are: Work on pulling in some of Andrea Righi's power management patches next. Not sure exactly when, this sinus infection is proving quite stubborn and unpredictable.

Once that's been beaten on for a few days (I'd prefer a week or so), I'll consider GPU OC as the next step unless some other really cool patches show up in someone's git repo. :)
