ok so this is normal?

What settings do i do exactly inside CWM?

Wipe Date/factory reset

Wipe cache partition

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Wipe Batter Stats

In any particular order?

Is there anyway to know the kernel installed correctly even tho it doesnt display in the about phone settings menu?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
No, you've written everything in the correct order. ;)

Then install the ROM.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
I have to put the rom back on the SD card - meaning i have to put debugging mode etc on - will i need to go back into CWM and wipe everything or just boot it up do the settings transfer the file and then go into recovery and install it?

Will it still be rooted etc and bootloader unlocked?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
Put the ROM on your sdcard.

Shutdown device.

Boot in fastboot mode.

Push kernel using ADB.

Reboot and enter recovery.

Wipe everything.

Install *.zip from sdcard.

Reboot & enjoy.

The kernels are prerooted and you're not locking your BL, so of course it is still unlocked.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
Done - installing miui now....

Praying this frigggen works !!!

Completed.

Reset.

Phone is stuck on Sony Ericsson screen and not doing anything.. FML.

5 minutes and still on Sony Ericsson.

man this is a joke :\
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
So another try..

Connect your device with your current ROM to a PC.

Put the ROM (*.zip file) on your sdcard.

Shutdown device.

Connect your device with fastboot mode (pressing menu button) to a PC.

Go to your fastboot folder.

Press shift key, right click and select "Open command window here".

Install kernel by using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

After installing disconnect your device from PC.

Enter CWM recovery by pressing volume down button several times while booting.

Do a full wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache.

Select install zip from sdcard.

Navigate to the folder you've saved the ROM and select it.

After installing select reboot system now.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
The phone is not booting in any way - im going to have to try and do a full reset and root it install CWM again and start from the very very beginning.

Should i do this then follow your new instructions above?

Sigh. Update Service wont reset my device.

Update Service:

The phone contains modified software that cannot be updated.

How do i get the phone to even turn on now...

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
Of course you can't use SEUS, because your bootloader is unlocked.

So, at which exactly step do you have what troubles?

And pls don't douple post, there's a edit function. ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
Apologies just very frustrated :(

The phone turns on to Sony Ericsson

The very first white SE logo. It does not go any further than this at all.

The only thing i can do is battery pull.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
Which ROM are you currently using?

It shouldn't turns on the SE logo if you put a custom kernel either way.

Have you pushed the kernel correctly?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
It was all set to stock. Installed the muiu rom and the kernel you linked for miui.

Im not sure if the kernel installed correctly as i mentioned earlier once i posted the img over the doom kernel image stayed on the screen for 20 minutes. So i battery pulled and went straight into recovery wiped everything and installed miui. That was complete and then i rebooted and now the phone won't boot post the Sony Ericsson image
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:

I've never used this ROM.

Currently I'm using SinMiUI.

But afaik MiUI ROMs need baseband 56 to work properly.

Do you have baseband 56?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
Baseband version: 8x55A-AAABQOAZM-203028D-56

Last time i checked before the phone was bricked this was the base band above

What am i meant to do this is my girl friends phone and i have absolutely no idea how to even get it to boot...she's going to murder me.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
This should be correct.

Just to know, try flashing baseband 56 with flashtool and then do everything I've written in the description again.

If this isn't working too, try to install the ROM with Blend MiUI kernel or try a different MiUI ROM with DooMKernel MiUI or Blend MiUI kernel.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProficienTICS:
How do i install another rom when the phone doesn't boot?

If any one has any idea any help is appreciated! Thanks dp94 for everything this far.im going to sleep before i start breaking things. 5am and 12 hours of trying to bake this work has taken it's tool on me.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
If you haven't a sdcard reader, which you can connect with your PC and put the ROM on your sdcard, you can use the mount options in CWM.

Guys i need some help here im confused anyone with advice please?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkVergil:
Are you really flashing the kernel or just booting it up?

It should be like this:

//fastboot flash boot kernel.img

Idk...your first posts made me think on that.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SkVergil:
Don't worry dude, I don't think there's unrepairable damage here, just a hard work around. I know it must be stressing because its your girlfriend's. Remember, the kernel you flash needs to be supported by the actual firmware/ROM you have.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp94:
So have you already tried to flash another ROM or have you flashed a different kernel?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] bfo12:
Hi all I'm new rip these forums so be nice please .

I just had a few questions about flashing custom roms on my galaxy ace (specifically gingerreal 1.4). I do have a rooted phone and cmw recovery

I've searched everywhere with no results so there why I'm posting a thread

Any help would be much appreciated

1. Do I need an unlocked bootloader to flash custom roms because I read on a webpage that you do or does rooting unlock the bootloader?

2. Step 1 was " flash stock kph/kpo(bootloaders are the most important)"

Im aldready running the stock rom so do I still have do do this?

3. for gingerreal there were different basebands to chose from. I run ddkq6 but there was dkq5 there. Does this matter or can I pick any baseband?

4. Whats the difference between creating a nandroid backup and flashing the stock rom with odin? Aren't they kinda the same?

If theres any other help you could offer me that may make flashing gingerreal easier please write it down out would help me a lot especially to those of you who are running gingerreal

Thanks in advance

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] fr3dw0rth:
I'm in the same boat as you. What I plan to do is copy the contents of the small SD card to the larger one. Then the NT shouldn't notice any difference.

Just a guess though.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] CuriousTux:
If you copy over the content to the new sd card you'll continue like normal but only with more memory available.

When I upgraded mine, I made sure my NT was turned off when I took the smaller sd card out and I copied all the files to my computer. I formatted my new sd card with SDFormatter and copied all the files to the new card. I put the new card back into my NT and turned it back on. No problems at all. My NT never knew the difference.

See but I need a class 10 32gb and the cheapest I found is like 40 from a off brand komputerbay I think
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShinnAsuka:
sometimes class 10 cards don't perform as well as you would think. A perfect example is the PNY class 10 card found at that Amazon link. Clearly, the class 10 and class 4 are more or less the same.

If you can find a good deal for a class 10 card, then go for it. But personally i would go for that sandisk class 4. i am using it right now and it works wonderfully. just make sure you buy it directly from amazon so you don't get fakes.

also run crystaldiskmark to confirm you are getting valid speeds.

hope this helps!

Hello,

I can't mount NTFS USB external hard disk, but an NTFS USB KEY is working ????, on the micro usb with the adaptor ARCHOS USB microUSB, is it normal?

Thanks.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkid602008:
NTFS is currently only read only and it doesn't like to mount properly. You could reformat as FAT32 but it won't any file larger than 4GB.

The best option is to format as EXT3 with EASEUS Partition Master then use a program like EXT2FSD or EXT2IFS to allow windows to read the drive correctly.

Also if for some reason you want to keep NTFS you may have to reformat before it will mount.

As far as a cable goes, I always use the 3G stick slot. Works a lot better and I don't have the usb adaptor. :P

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkid602008:
I connect the mini usb cable from my hdd directly to the fullsize 3G slot, then I turn 3g stick on in the settings. It's very important that you have "3G stick" checkmarked in Wireless & Networks otherwise you won't get power to your drive and nothing will mount.

USB host functionality

Hello to all, and best wishes for 2012 year.

Could you precise which firmware version you're running, when you have success to mount a 'USB host' peripheral ?

I tried many USB keys (6 keys, from 2 GB up to 16 GB), with different formats ( NTFS , FAT, FAT32, ext3 ) but without success. The same with a 250 GB external HDD (having its own PSU) using NTFS.

Originally, I tested with version 3.2.78 , and since this morning, 3.2.79

Still the same : Nothing detected when pluging the USB peripheral

The 3G interface is activated in settings. The tablet has been rebooted a lot of times, but.... nothing !

Any idea ?

Thanks.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quinny899:

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doume59249:
Thanks for answer

All media tested ( USB or external HDD ) are OK into PCs, but no reaction on Archos 101 G9....
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quinny899:
But do they need to install drivers when they are first plugged into the PC?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doume59249:
Hard to be sure, but all of them had already been used on PC previously, so may be the drivers have been installed in the past ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkid602008:
@Doume59249 Okay some drives have hidden paritions that may interfere with their operation. Nothing is special with my tablet. It's a 101 classic with 1.0ghz processor bought before December. I currently run 3.2.78 rooted but it has also worked on every stock firmware prior.

Getting back to the hidden partitions. If your jumpdrive/hdd autoruns some bloatwear program or shows a cd drive when you mount it then you probably have a hidden partition.

Put your jumpdrive/hdd in the computer and hit:

start>run>diskmgmt.msc

Back up anything important you have on the drive, there's a chance it may format with this method....although it probably shouldn't, you should reformat if you have any problems. MAKE SURE YOU FIND YOUR JUMPDRIVE VOLUME.

If you see any partitions other than the main one, right click the smaller partition>delete.

Then higlight the primary/larger partition and right click>extend

Go through the wizard it should default to the maximum avaliable space.

Verify that it is fat32. Remember, if you will NOT be able to store files larger than 4GB with fat32 so I recommend to try this with a small jumpdrive and not an hdd.

Enable 3G stick in your settings and try it in your tablet again. Boot with the jumpdrive plugged in if for some reason it doesn't want to mount. If it doesn't work then maybe Archos has handycapped some of their tablets. It could also be a physical problem with your port. I'm really not sure. Hope this helped.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doume59249:
Thanks for suggestions

I have tested different ways, to be sure to have only 1 partition on USB medias

- Using diskmgmt.msc under Windows Vista Pro to remove partitions and format into FAT32

- Using fdisk on Linux to remove all partitioning before to insert key into Vista, to format it into FAT32

I also tried with many USB keys

I've rebooted my Archos 101 G9 (using 3.2.78 too ), with the key inserted

But no success.....

I think the 3G location is'nt available on my tablet ( no led blinking when inserting USB keys into slot )

Probably a hardware problem : I'll try to contact Archos support about that

Question : Do you have any led blinking, when you insert a running jumpdrive ?

One more time, many thanks for your help

ciao, very very quick test using "3g port" with Archos 101 g9 8gb, 3.2.79 rooted (thank you coolkid602008 for the trick :-) here micro usb host cable is difficult to find in physical stores).

usb Nilox 4gb fat32 -> obviously it works

usb Kingston 8gb ntfs -> system sees but it does not mount

2.5 wd hd (500 gb) ntfs (single usb cable, data + power) -> Strangely it works!

all of these with single primary partition.

next step (when and if I have time) is try a very old creative webcam ct6840 with Omni Vision 7620 chip (I have an old box full of them at work...) that has always been recognized in any linux distribution. ciao

When waking up the tablet, the screen becomes 'crazy' : A lot of breaks into applications, the 'back' button blinking alone, without any control. All the tablet becomes uncontrollable... Probably a bad contact on screen.

So, finally, I put it back to reseller, for a return to Archos.

I'll post here feedback after return.

Tried to download new browser - didn`t help.

Tried reflash ROM - didn`t help.
