[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
mine will not charge from just USB either I have to use the power brick that came with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tshoulihane:
ok, I hadn't realised the port was usb3. Makes sense, even if it is a little annoying to have to always have the charger (like if I want to charge in the car)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Buddy Revell:
Are there any car chargers that would work with the Prime?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
I am sure there probably is but I just use a inverter thingy that gives you a regular plug outlet I will link you the one I have it's really nice has a USB port too

Hi.

Not works. Bootloader Err:A5,69,35...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gaby1995:
hello , forum members . i am coming to you because i don`t really know what to do anymore with this phone . i spent like 5-6 hours trying to fix it but it seems impossible.

the problem: 1 week ago , mom actidentally washed my jeans with my lg on it ( i know .. stupid ) , therefore , i took it to a GSM service and all they did was to clean it and then tell me they can`t fix it.

the phone: well , i turn the device on , LG icon appears then a crash comes up , with SN and the hour when phone crashed , then some weird animation appears on the screen. when i power it off , the lg icon just flashes very fast.

note: the phone can enter in emergency mode / i can`t hard reset it

the question : can i make it operable again ? and if yes .. what can i do ? i already tried KDZ but the phon can`t be found ( disabled the modem driver ) , in other terms , the computer can`t see my phone anymore

help needed , thanks !
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tudorsirb:
If the phone can enter Emergency Mode, you could try using LGMP. There are some nice tutorials here, you should search for them.

Try remove the battery, then while holding 'back' and 'volume up' connect the phone to the PC via USB.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vikasb32:
May be your phone usb port not working that's why lgmdp and kdz not able to detect.

Here my suggestions if your phone is in warranty go to other lg service centre and told that my phone not working after update through original lg updater don't talk that your mom washed the phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gaby1995:
i did try . same .. phone not found
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Negi9:
Have you installed LG drivers on your computer? If not, then please do. Only then will your PC detect your phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gaby1995:
i had them installed but i tried on my laptop . installed again the drivers and STILL DOES NOT SEE THE DEVICE . -_-

i think the processor is trashed..

did u keep it under the rice to dry it before turning it on??

after that .. I took it to the service directly ..

S -On?? Is it simple to do??

Getting an Evo 3D soon and wondered how easy it is to install for example LeeDroid?? And does that rom allow 3D gaming???

Thanks!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
Are you asking how to achieve s-off? If you are it all depends on what hboot version it has. Is it CDMA or GSM
[HTC EVO 3D] USSENTERNCC1701E:
S-ON is super easy, you just have to take the phone out of the box, and if you buy it in store they do it for you!!!!

Sorry, couldn't resist. Most likely you will be getting a phone with a new HBOOT (1.50 for CMDA, don't know what for GSM). For 1.50 S-OFF is not possible yet, but for most things you'd want to do, the HTC Unlock method is sufficient. Their website will walk you through it, it is very simple. The same applies for the newest GSM HBOOT, although if you're a proficient user, I've seen threads about ways to downgrade to an HBOOT that Revolutionary supports. HTC Unlock will allow you to flash a ROM, and if that ROM is Sense based, then it will most likely still support the 3D feature.
[HTC EVO 3D] roy8846:
Sorry S-Off then LOL....

It would be a UK GSM phone btw...

Thanks for responding
[HTC EVO 3D] USSENTERNCC1701E:
K, what HBOOT? If you don't know how to check, just pull the battery, wait a sec, put it back in, hold volume down, press power. Second line down on the screen you see should say HBOOT-*.**.****

Here's an example

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------

Haha, woops forgot you don't have it yet.

---------- Post added at 10:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 AM ----------

When you do get it, check that number then go to Revolutionary.io first, if they don't support your HBOOT go to HTCdev.com
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
Will it be CDMA or GSM. I bought my son a CDMA version from radioshack in November. I was surprised when I checked the hboot and it was 1.3. If you are lucky enough to get a version that revolutionary supports then head over to http://revolutionary.io/
[HTC EVO 3D] roy8846:
Many thanks , it will be GSM (UK)

Never had a phone that seems so simple!!

Used to messing with Fastboot and flashing tools , bootloaders etc...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
For the past week or so I have noticed my S2 getting slower, lower signal, freezing more and other things. I am running stock rooted.

Earlier this week I had no signal and 3 people next to me all three on AT&T had full bars. I used to have the same amount of bars as others on AT&T. When I do have full bars my data is a lot slower than it was when I first got the phone.

My phone has also been crashing and freezing a lot. A few days ago I would have to reset my phone about every 30 minutes when listing to music on both Amazon MP3 and the stock music app. Both would freeze, my screen would go black and I could not do anything.

Over the past two weeks or so I have had to reset my phone several times because the touch buttons stopped working.

I also have had a new voice mail notification for over 2 weeks but I do not have a new one.

Right now if I plug my S2 into my computer nothing happens, no charge, no nothing. When it used to work I never had an option for mass storage/kies, is this normal?

I'm sure I have had other glitches but that's all I can think of right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Stevenrogers_420:
That my friend, is why you shouldn't drop your phone. It's hard on em...

Lol JK..

Have tried a fresh flash of return to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
I had some (but not all) of those issues on my captivate when my sim card was bad. If a flash to stock doesn't help go to an att store and swap Sims, next stop warranty replacent.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] \/icious:
Yep warranty is the route i would go
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
Do I need to unroot for a warranty replacement or will they not care?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
I think the consensus is, they won't notice anything other than the water indicators, or physical damage. But, with it only taking a moment to do its worth the effort in the off chance they check and charge you full retail for the phone.

Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
Well, I guess I will try a reflash of stock first.

Just an hour ago my phone keeps thinking it is charging in a dock. The plug in noise plays, the battery meter changes to charging and my clock app opens. After like 5 seconds it realizes it is not in a dock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
Any debris stuck in the charge port? Sounds like warranty replacement is going to be your route. When you combine all those issues, its hard to see it any other solution.

Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
Yep, starting to sound similar to myself and several others here who had USB port hardware failures. Warranty replacement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
I'm just going to get a warranty replacement. Now the touch screen is barley working. Why is everything going wrong all of the sudden? Perfect phone for like 3 months then boom everything goes bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iqak:
Yep

This definitely sounds like the USB port gone funky.

Mine would randomly wake itself up. Trigger driving mode and v-lingo by itself. Think the the PC cable was plugging itself in an out.

Hard crash while sleeping which required the very long power button press to wake back up.

Initially they wanted me to try a new battery. That didn't work so now I have a 2nd battery and a new GS2.

Check my thread in the Q&A section.

I returned to stock. Decremented the flash count. And did a complete wipe. That was enough to stop the crashes but not the random USB wakes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
What are the chances I will have 2.3.6 on my replacement?

EDIT: Ok there has to be something more than just a USB jack problem. I just unlocked my phone and the screen was upside down and full brightness then froze. Had to pull the battery and reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
Just woke up late to find that my phone can not charge and was using its last bit of battery power to put it self in a endless boot loop. Turns on, battery low notification, turns off, turns on, battery low notification, turns off, and so on. Im assuming there is no way to back up my apps and run root at this point? haha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
My automatic Titanium backup apparently saved to the phone and not SD card. How can I get it off the phone if the phone can't boot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] penguinlogik:
Buy an external battery charger or get the phone into usb download mode and leave it there for an hour or 2 to charge. (with it connected to your pc)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iqak:
The phone I received at the Support Center had 2.3.4.

On the drive home from the store, 2.3.6 put itself onto the brand new phone.

Personally, I'd AVOID 2.3.4 until the BlueTooth Keyboard issue is resolved.

That is unless you'll never need BlueTooth HID.

I can also say for sure that 2.3.6 (edit was 2.3.4) makes ROM swaps and rooting trickier in general.

My 2 cents.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
Do you mean to say to avoid 2.3.6?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iqak:
Sorry yes. I would avoid 2.3.6.

I'd go so far as to say, freeze / disable the OTA and stay on 2.3.4 until the consensus determines that the waters are safe again. With the inclusion of killing my bluetooth keyboard, I did not notice an gains in my normal usage.

I have felt more issues on 2.3.6, than I had on 2.3.4.

2.3.4 seemed easier to root. ROM's seemed easier to flash, etc.

Now, I did pony up for the physical jig, the flash counter was never a concern of mine.

Mobile Odin appears to be a very mice addition to our tool list.

I wish I understood the program more intimately. Perhaps I've missed a usage guide along the way. Ulitimately I used it to load CWM. After that, its wasj ust ClockWorkMod to load another ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] zenopzz:
Replacement just arrived. Time to root and titanium backup. Hopefully AT&T doesn't catch the root on my old phone.

Also, my Dad's S2 is ready for the 2.3.6 update and keeps telling him to update. He does not want me too root his phone and freeze the update, is there another way to stop it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrIcky:
One of my customers today asked why the following URL will play his schools radio on the iPhone but not the nexus. He hates apple. http://64.34.163.103/dean/player.php

The link is for dean colleges wgao radio station. Sure enough it streams on our display model iPhone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ranova:
because it uses quicktime, an Apple proprietary technology. Not sure if theres an app that supports it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmace:
It uses quicktime, apart from Apple who the hell still uses Quicktime these days?

no wonder it works on iOS but not Android it's a very badly made site using non-web standards

[Acer Iconia A500] internetpilot:
Before anyone starts the flaming because they live on XDA and remember a thread or two that may have mentioned this, I did search the entire A500 forum with a variety of different parameters to no avail.

Is there a changelog of some sort (preferably direct from Acer) that tells us what is in each OTA update? I see that some of the ROM chefs are updating their ROMs with the new v3.2.1 release, and even though I've read pretty much all those ROM threads, all I see are people stating things like, "The stock browser seems smoother" or "Battery life seems to have improved", but there doesn't seem to be anything concrete.

I'm the type who wants to know if an update will actually be useful for me, because if it doesn't really affect me then I don't want to go to all the typical trouble of updating the base of the ROM I'm currently using, etc.

I think I'm asking for too much, because we can't even get Acer to tell us when they're going to release updates -- they definitely don't seem interested in telling us what's in them.
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
The only way I've found is to decrypt each update, and have a look to see what they've updated.

If you look around, some people have posted their updates on Mega, and multiupload. If you wait for Acer to give you an update log, you may be waiting until h3ll freezes over lol ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
You know, that's a million dollar question ;)

I can tell you what they "do" give you... a 35% chance you'll brick your tab.

They claim minor security features and a UI update. But not a lot of other info running around, except bricked tabs ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] timmyDean:
I do what kjy2010 does. I look at the files they are changing, I Google, and read up what others are saying. So, your post I think is a good question, so how does anyone really know?

TD
[Acer Iconia A500] internetpilot:
Alright, I decided to go straight to the source and get right to the bottom of this question once and for all. (yeah, right) :rolleyes:

So I go to the Acer Support site, input all of my information, specifically including my full physical home address, as well as the serial # for my A500, asked the question, and this is the fountain of information that I received back:

...sigh...

Really? You really can't point me to a changelog for your OS updates, but you expect me to just blindly download and install them? Really? Oh, I *AM* sending them my serial # again, as well as my location information again, because I can't wait to see what their answer will be after they're done jerking me around in a circle.

I feel like I just got the Jedi mindtrick answer:

Acer: (wave hand) "You don't need to know what is changed in the OS updates."

Me: "Uh...I don't need to know what is changed in the OS updates."

Acer: (wave hand) "You will just download the updates anyway."

Me: "Uh...I'll just download the updates anyway."

Acer: (wave hand) "You just need to buy a whole new Acer tablet."

Me: "Uh...I just need a whole new Acer tablet."

I just had to go look at my A500 again to make sure it didn't have an Apple logo on it. :rolleyes:
[Acer Iconia A500] mtmerrick:
nah, if it had an apple logo it wouldn't have any of its glorious ports, and you wouldn't be able to ROM :P

Have you considered broadening your search a little? 3.2 to 3.2.1 isn't just Acer software updates, its full os changes. I'd recommend looking at ASOP ROMs for different tabs, or maybe in the Xoom forum (its basically a nexus), or something, like that, seeing what those changelogs are.

You may turn up nothing, idk. But I'm sure theres an official os change log somewhere. The a500 runs afaik unmodified honeycomb.
[Vega General] mmace:
Editing this as I'm desperate for help and things have moved on since I first posted, below is where I am up to post 11 of this thread.

I flashed Vegacomb b (exe), it restarted but stayed on the warning about paying for vegacomb for 10-15 minutes which didn't seem right so I held power for 6 seconds and it turned off. After that it would never turn on or go into recovery (I know all the methods, none worked).

Today I unhooked the battery, when I plug the battery back in the screen comes on for a second but then it's as it was, unresponsive. HOWEVER, if I plug the mains in with the battery disconnected then it immediately tries booting but still sticks at the warning (left for over 20 minutes). If I plug the battery in while on this screen then remove the mains it stays on. The power button is unresponsive through this so I still cannot get into recovery.

Any more ideas that haven't been mentioned?

I've tried well over 100 times to get into recovery but it's not happening

anyone willing to have a go at fixing (cheaply!) if I send them it?

Original Post:

Hi guys, just managed to (re?) install Vegacomb (b, from exe), it restarted but stayed on the white screen with the warning text about paying for Vegacomb for over 10 minutes so I held down the power button to turn it off, now I cannot do anything to boot it up (tried holding power button down from 0.5 seconds to 60 seconds!), it also won't boot into recovery. Is there anything at all that can be done to get this going?

cheers
[Vega General] mmace:
OK, I've tried holding down back while plugging in (fully charged btw), tried all variations of button presses with back and power, with and without USB, with and without power cable.

Only got until 10PM (UK time) to get this sorted (it's now 6PM) so any help/advise would be appreciated
[Vega General] intel007:
Flash back to modded stock then try again.

From modded stock go app drawer and run recovery

From recovery wipe data, cache then go advance then wipe dalvik

Then press back

Then install zip from SD

Choose vegacomb from whatever directory on your SD you copied it to then confirm

If you ain't Got Vegacombe zip then download it.

Or you could run the .exe again but the above is my preferred method.

Also you might need to download modded stock v2 if you ain't already got it.

Good luck.
[Vega General] mmace:
??

the Vega won't turn on and won't go into recovery, cannot flash anything, nothing comes up on PC, tried all variations of the back and power buttons (inc back, plug in power & usb, press power, leave 2 seconds and release back) over 100 times. it's like it's dead.

the only thing it does is show a blue LED when I plug the power cable in
[Vega General] intel007:
I've read that if you got less than 50 or 60% battery it wont go into flash mode (back button 2 seconds - power & back 2 seconds)

Have you got enough battery cause mine takes half a day to charge.
[Vega General] mmace:
100% (solid blue LED), been on charge for over 24 hours
[Vega General] intel007:
I'm baffled mate, I've had same issue couple of times but after 10mins or so I've always got it to power back on.
[Vega General] DaveBury:
Bricked

I've had the same problem and although quite drastic, remove the rear cover and unplug the battery connection (the multipin one with red and brown/black wires).

With the mains plug out,i found that if you press volume up and power with the wires unplugged and leav eit for a few mins then use back + power it will start as you need it to.

It may take a few tries but i have managed to do it following this procedure about 7-8 times.

Hope this helps.

[Vega General] dmarchant:
I had trouble getting into recovery when the Vega was 100% charged (i.e. charge led was solid blue). When I let it discharge a little so it was flashing with the charger plugged in, I managed to get into recovery then.
[Vega General] mmace:
I can't discharge it though as it doesn't turn on, left it 14 hours from last night, back at work again now and it still says fully charged :(

got the battery disconnected now to give it a try
[Vega General] mmace:
Disconnected battery for around 10 minutes, put it all back together, still can't boot or get to recovery :(

EDIT: it works when the battery is disconnected (goes to the Vegacomb warning screen but no further, cannot power off or get to recovery still)

any ideas?

Anyone got any ideas?

it's meant to be unbrickable from what I've read so there must be a way around it but I'm out of ideas!

Hi, this may not help but i had trouble flashing the stock rom because of the battery being fully charged, could only get the screen to light up so left it over night and then went through the normal routine and got into recovery.

[Vega General] mitt69:
Hi there

Just one question, how do you know for sure it hasn't gone into nvflash mode?

I know what you are going through trying to get the ruddy thing into nvflash, it's a mare if you don't quite get that timing right but seeing as the screen doesn't light up when it's in nvflash what is telling you whether you are actually in it, other than the screen coming on to say you are not or relying on a windows message?

As I said I had the same problems many a time but I use Audi tool now to tell me if nvflash has started, I got it off the Modaco forum, but when you are in nvflash it actually tells you so rather than relying on perhaps windows to tell you it has happened

If you haven't come across the audi tool before then just do a search for it on Modaco, I don't know if they have got it here on XDA.
[Vega General] BillyFish:
wow, i'm quite surprised by the number of people who are taking their batteries out when they think there is a problem. You should never need to do this unless it is actually faulty.

Ok yes the Vega is nearly indestructible I have had my in a complete mess many times and have never had to do anything that hard to recover. Some times it will be a pain to get into nvflash mode but this can always be done just have to be patient and know a couple of tricks.

If you have tried the back button and then the power a few times and nothing there is another method.

Instead unplug the power then hold the back button down, whilst holding down the back button plug in the power release the back button after a couple of seconds (I like to count to 5)

I am hoping that you already have the USB cable connected and the right drivers installed on your PC.

Billy..

If you need more help head over to TabletRoms and look in the Vega forum (sorry XDA guys just there is a lot of other useful information there)
