[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lettcco:
I am not a noob when it comes to android dev, but this has stomped me and I am asking for expert's help. I have a GSM version SGN that I flashed the official yakju ICL53F on it via fastboot. It has been working great for a month now. Suddenly today I felt it was vibrating in my pocket, took it out and discover it was stuck in boot loop--the google sign with the unlocked icon. I waited til I get home to put clockworkmod on it, but when I try to nandroid it first it gave me an error. Then I figure I would just fastboot the stock rom on it again, using fastboot mode like I did before. I even flashed the bootloader, radio, and system image. Still stuck on google icon with screen went blank, vibrate and repeat. Is there anything else I should try? odin mode is also available, but I am not seeing any instructions on it at the developer section so I am reluctuant to try it. I can still adb and fastboot to access my phone...help please?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lettcco:
well I am no noob but I am no expert either. Apparently you cannot

fastboot flash system XXXXstock_image.img, you have to use

fastboot update -w XXXstock_image.img instead.

still I am baffled by why this happened in the first place. I was ready to lock the bootloader back up and send it in for warranty...glad I didn't have to resort to that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I think you are mixing some things up.

The "update" parameter of fastboot is used to flash a group of images inside a zip file to you device.

The "flash" parameter is used to flash a single image to your device.

The following two groups of commands do the same thing:

fastboot update -w image-yakju-icl513f.zip

or

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot erase cache

hi,

i just recently flashed to 4.03 XXKP8. my original firmware is DXKH2

after one day using it,its buggier than i had expected. (my fault i know cause i didnt read the detail first).

so i want to downgrade back to 2.3 ( if possible to my original DXKH2 ).

when i flash to KP8 re-partition ticked and .Pit also flashed.

it is possible to flash back to 2.3 using original DXKH2 firmware provided in this link? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

or do i have to do something else(since i flash .PIT and tick re-partition)?

i read KP8 thread and seems a lots of people stumble problem while downgrading.

and also i didnt make any recovery before flashing to KP8 (again,my fault).

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Komladov:
Here is my situation:

I'm currently stationed in Europe, Poland to be specific. I use my Inc2 in GSM mode with a local carrier. After rooting and flashing CM7 for the first time, I noticed my reception getting significantly worse than before (And if not, it's pretty **** in the first place.)

I an attempt to remedy this, I flashed the newest .1111 radio from the Inc2 Development forums, unfortunately that not only didn't help - but resulted in a ~10db drop in my reception.

I figure that the "newest, bestest" radios (released by Verizon, correct?) are only there to improve reception within the United States, and a fellow like myself - looking to get the best possible reception within Europe - should start looking for an alternative.

I'm hoping somebody here will have had some experience with maximizing reception in Europe.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trkaaa:
Custom Roms have different behaviors when it comes to GSM according to each Rom

try flashing another Rom , i suggest :

Andybones stock ( Based on the Latest OTA ) , it is not de-bloated , Note that latest OTA originally included the Radio you installed 1111

rmk sense ( the first release from Verizon ) and it is de-bloated

Both of the above Roms are Original Rooted firmware

do a super wipe before installing the Rom

choose GSM Only mode ( not the global mode )

if signal don't improve try

adding your carrier APN through APN settings manually

or you can Backup the APN's included in CM using APN Backup and restore from the market and restore them for one of the above roms , then use APN manager to activate your APN

Please note that this will override Verizon Global embedded GSM APN , Don't try this before trying the Roms with Verizon Global embedded GSM first and see the results

1. Battery life - 4 days of light use...2,5 on heavy using

3.performance on gaming-well pretty same as in stock froyo 2.2

so i think this rom is a good alternative, if you are tired of CM 7.2 based roms..., its stable enough without serious bugs

[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] alucka:
Hi,

I have purchased a 5510 for one of my parents, without Contract, but blocked by a French provider: "Bouygues Telecom".

I think that's going to be easy to unlock, but I have not yet find how.

The phone has been flashed on the latest stock rom samsung (samfirmware) and it is not root.

if the root is necessary, what app or software is needed? and how to unlock?

ps: as a purchase without Contract, I can not ask my provider to unlock it.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] alucka:
[solved]

this solution works for me with the last rom samsung and rooted by "SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse".

it's in french, so good luck with google translate! :)

phonandroid.com/forum/desimlocker-samsung-ace-s5830-en-invite-de-commande-t4206.html
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] JT-on:
I can confirm this works on my I5510M from Bell Mobility. I just tried it using a TELUS sim card.

Here are the steps I took:

0. Type in dial pad *#7465625#, make sure network lock is [ON]... if not you're not simlocked

1. If phone is not rooted, download SuperOneClickv2.2-ShortFuse.zip from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

2. Connect the phone to your computer using, windows 7 installed the correct drivers for me

3. Once the drivers are installed, disconnect your phone

4. Open SuperOneClick

5. Reconnect your phone to the computer

6. Press Root in SuperOneClick... wait for it to finish (may take ~2-5 min)

7. Your phone is now rooted, hooray

8. Make sure your phone is in debug mode. Settings > Applications > Developer > Debug Mode

9. Copy ADB folder from SuperOneClick folder to C:\

10. Open command prompt (start > run > cmd)

11. Type in the following commands:

cd C:/adb (navigate to the adb folder you just placed)
adb devices (to verify device is connected)
adb shell
su
cat /dev/bml5>/sdcard/bml5.img (thats an "L" not a "one")
exit

You just copied bml5 binary to the root of your sdcard. If you get access denied, your phone was not properly rooted, try again.

12. Mount your SDCard and copy bml5.img to your desktop

13. Download HexEdit here: http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~prewett/hexedit/

14. Open bml5.img in HexEdit

15. Press FIND, select HEX, and paste in "FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30" (without quotes), then press OK

16. It should find the hex sequence, look to the right pane of HexEdit and you'll see an 8-digit numeric code (mine was split over two lines). This is your sim unlock code. Write down this code.

17. Turn off your phone

18. Place another networks simcard in your phone, and turn your phone back on

19. After it boots, it'll say this phone is network locked, and prompt for an unlock code... type the code found in step 16

20. If it doesn't prompt type in in the dialer: #7465625*638*# then type in your code

21. It should unlock no problem

22. Double check by typing *#7465625# in the dialer and making sure Network Lock is [OFF]

Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers.

Another Bell success story

My wife is on Bell and I'm on Telus. The only reason she hasn't switched is that Telus doesn't have a QWERTY phone she likes. These instructions worked flawlessly on her 551. XP found and installed the drivers with no problems. I used ES File Manager to copy bml5.img from the SD card to a shared folder on the XP machine via WiFi. When I ran the hex editor there was only one match for the hex search string and I scrolled up 2 lines and saw the code. I popped my Telus SIM in her phone and when it powered up it prompted me for an unlock code. I entered the code and made a couple of test calls.

I have attached a prtscr of the hex editor with the search string hilighted. Note that it's repeated 3 times and the scroll bar shows it's near the end of the file.

I tried searching for this before I posted and hopefully I didn't miss anything. But I couldnt find a thread that tells you how to view the files Carrier IQ "writes to". I am in com.carrieriq.tmobile/databases and I see 2 files

2. surveys.db-journal

I was wondering if these are the files that store data collected by carrieriq and if so what PC program would I need to view what's inside of them? If these are not the files, could someone;

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
Easiest way is use an app called "checkfus" from the market. It's free.

Basically checkfus can search the same servers as kies does and find the latest firmware available from your carrier.

Then go to intratechs official carrier firmware thread and download the version that checkfus told you was the latest for your carrier.

Flash this via Odin following intratechs instructions.

Use a USB jig to get rid of any flash counter. Sets it to official firmware with 0 flash counter.

If you want at this stage you can do a wipe if you don't want any data on your phone.

At this point your phone will be as if you just unboxed it. kies should work and everything.

Hope this helps.
