[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Verbal_Hologram:
Free ? Nothing is Free in this world , We live in a Capitalistic-Century...

Ontopic : It's Verry important to do what the Devolpers tell you about installing a ROM , Did you followed all the steps to install it Succesfull ?

Sorry To heart it , Don't bring it to the Factory but read about it on Internet. I'm sure That there is a solution.

Peace.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
If you know that theres a solution, why not give it?

He's not the first one who did this by accident, and you problably are reading this for the first time.

I dont and helped people out.

A bricked motherboard is hardware, and cant be solved with software tricks.

Samsung needs to replace it, unlesd you are an engineer and can replace it yourself, you still need to break.in at samsungs factory and steal a motherboard for your gio.

That said, you do better go to samsung, they'll fix it. People that had this replied after it had been fixed, that it costed nothing, so it is possible, ecen in this capatilistic world in economic crisis.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Verbal_Hologram:
You Shouldn't speak if you don't know my experience with that , Back in the Days i had also a problem with the motherboard. They Told me to send my Mobile + letter to Samsung ..but they said to me "it isn't worth because it will cost me more than the device itself". +

+ Installing a unofficial ROM is on your own RISK !

Now, my lucky is coming back... Because I bought it from an online shop, I decided to take it to the office of this online shop myself, because I live at 40 miles away of the office. And at the part with money, if they want at least 100 $, I prefer to buy a new galaxy, maybe better than gio. Now I wait what the destiny want...

[HTC EVO 3D] ls3c6:
1) When charging is there any way to get the notification light to blink if there is a message... instead of the solid RED for charging and solid GREEN for done? I like to glance at the device if there's a message and know it without powering up the display.

2) Is there any way to get an AUDIBLE beep/notification of new messages WHILE on a phonecall? The light blinks but I have no other way of knowing there's a message... other phones i've had beeped or vibrated to let you know in-call there was a new email/sms/msg etc
[HTC EVO 3D] megabiteg:
Don't know about #1, but doesn't your phone vibrates when receiving a message on a call? I'm currently on a flight and don't have access to my phone but I believe this is an option in the "calls" menu.

My OG Evo 4g had that feature and many phones before this one, haven't noticed if it works now with the 3D.

nope does nothing and no option in settings/call
[HTC EVO 3D] Andrew486:
I can't seem to find the option anywhere but my phone, (by default, been this way since I got it) does notify me, kind of a soft "beep" sound in the background, enough to be noticeable but not disturb my call.

I flashed the DZ hBoot on my G2 to flash new sense3.0 ROMS but after updating the PC10IMG.zip file in the bootloader it reboots and hangs at the htc logo screen & even was not allowing me to enter recovery mode....so i removed the sdcard and erased the PC10IMG.zip file and then rebooted into recovery and tried restoring the backed up ROM ...but while restoring the boot img it gives out the error 'boot img not found' ...hence while i reboot again it hangs at the HTC screen!!! pls help!!!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoffmas:
you won´t be able to restore your g2 stock rom... choose a different one (maybe on of the sense roms - you did change your hboot because of that, didn´t you?)

go to recovery and mount usb storage put the rom (.zip) on the sdcard unmount usb storage and flash the rom through recovery.

maybe wipe cache & dalvik cache before flashing the new rom ;)

A Present from Moscow!

Acer Stock HC 3.2.1 Acer_A501_4.483.01_EMEA_TMPL

Rooted

Busybox

Superuser

Data/app folder added with a couple of apps to check root

All stock ACER apps included

You know the procedure for flashing. If not, here they are again, as it seems some people don't know.

You MUST do the wipes and formats.

Installation:

Due to issues with Version 1.7 of recovery, you may get stuck at the boot animation. Highly advise you to downgrade your recovery back to Version 1.5. It seems that some things do not get wiped and formatted correctly.

1. Wipe User Data

2. Wipe Cache

3. Wipe DalviK

4. Wipe Battery Stats

Note: Optional Formatting.

If you really want to remove EVERYTHING in Internal Memory, at this point, go to Backup and Restore. Select "Toggle backup and restore of internal storage (/data/media). Enable this setting by selecting it. By default, it is disabled. Then proceed to the formatting steps. This will format the Entire Internal Memory when you proceed.

If you want to save all the things like downloaded files, apps, pdf's etc, then DO NOT enable this toggle, and just proceed to the Format steps.

Select Go Back, Goto Mounts and Storage

1. Format System

2. Format Cache

3. Format Dalvik

4. Format Flexrom

Select Go Back and select Install from Zip File (for those of you who refuse to update their recovery, select Install zip from SD)

Link Re-established.

Did a full wipe, cache, dalvik and battery stats and flashed it now a second time - all i get is only the boot animation.

Any suggestions?

Thanks! I will give it a try either tonight or this weekend and see how it goes for me.

Not sure what your definition is of a "full wipe", but instructions can be found here:

I can guarantee you that if all you can get is to the boot animation that the problem is "pilot error". ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
Try downloading the ROM again. It might be a bad download.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, here's what I suggest. Look in my original post. I added the full instructions from my other rom.

It seems now days, the old 3 wipes just don't do a good enough job, you also have to do the formats as well.

(I thought I would be lazy and do only the 3 wipes last night, guess what? Stuck at boot animation) Did the full wipe and format, and it works as advertised.

EDIT: Guess what? This morning, I cannot flash anything, or I should say "hit and miss". Not even my daily driver. Connected to Recovery I believe.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Link re-established. Nothing wrong with the download.

If you have issues, downgrade your recovery back to version 1.5.

The issue with version 1.7 is "hit and miss". Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Acer_A501_4.483.01_EMEA_TMPL Differences from A501_4.031.24_4.066.29_COM_GEN1?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, I haven't checked the comgen1 yet (had to figure out the recovery problem first). Will root it and check it in a bit.

But, so far, I see 4 or 5 language supports are missing from the TMPL. Arabic and Aisian mostly. Also, on install the default is Polish (not a biggie as you can change it).

Other that that, it has a few extra files when compared to 3.2.

It seems I can get 1 or 2 extra sat's on gps when comparing to HC 3.2. But maybe because it's a clear day here.

Also, Acer included a couple new apps. One of them some 3d photo browser that force closes the first time you use it. Then it works normally, sort of. Seems it loses it's images off and on. Nice job acer. And, it's butt ugly. Wonder who the rocket scientist was that chose that app? ;)

I'm not going to mod this one, but I will with the comgen1. Overall it runs good I think.

What is that A501_4.031.24_4.066.29_COM_GEN1 build ?

I am only aware of that Acer_A501_4.066.29_COM_GEN1 posted by Vache, but how did you figure 4.031.24 is upgraded to that one ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Sorry. My Bad :D

I was thinking about the a501_4.510.01_Com_Gen1H that was leaked out yesterday.

I already rooted it and such, but it seems to be a "Demo" version from a couple of months ago. Not only does it have a strange installer script, but a strange directory structure also. 3g also is partly working.

So basically it's of little use.

Could You provide the MD5 just to check if the download is correct (it is very slow)?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I get one in a few minutes.

The issue, is the U.S. is shutting down all the file servers due to piracy. MegaUpload, MultiUpload (server end) Now all that's left are the slow ones. Took me 45 minutes to download today.

[Acer Iconia A500] ultramag69:
Yeah, its a pain in the bum alright, some of the slower ones already have "removed or taken down because of copyrighted material" messages coming up (deposit files)... A couple have the servers offline - upload king and upload here.

This is gonna be a major pain in the bum if the close down or lock file sharing sites, and the sites themselves may end up locking things down and removing anything they see as copyrighted material, even if its not....:(:mad:

Took me 10 minutes to download an 8mb kernel... I'm gonna end up a bald man before I get this rom.... :p

And then the download stuffs up and I have start ALL OVER AGAIN.... Then to add insult to injury I have to wait 20 minutes.....
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I'm not quite that bad off (still have all my hair)!

I'm going to look around for some Russian servers. Or something. I noticed one other place, but I have to find it again. They'll probably shut it down also soon.

Next thing you know, they'll shut down GitHub, and all dev comes to a standstill.

Also, I noticed today, XDA is almost at a complete stop. And I can guess who's responsible for THAT!

I think there's going to be a "knee jerk" re-action to the mega upload affair.... Be a REAL pain if we can't continue doing what we want with our devices...

Shame too, just getting good with the new A501 roms coming out...

Chefs are great for sharing these awesome roms.... :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, I just know enough to make me screw things up:D

I found another place. 30 min download, But you have to give your e-mail for the link. Not really an issue. 3 more servers went down today.

Seems all that's left, is the small file hosts, and they're starting to limit file size.

I suspect, some serious **** will hit the fan in the next coming week, The US can't keep going on this crusade forever. Otherwise, there won;t be a site left except "foxnews" and Facebook.

IS there a Kernel i can use for overclocking?

Using CPU Master i can only choose 1000MHz, had it overclocked to 1.4GHz with the previous ROM.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No problem and glad it's running. :D

Not sure what is going on, but in past 6 months, it seems like we now have to format things. I didn't in the past, but now I must.

Well, it is 2012, so things change.

If you have issues with the Rom, it is pure stock HC 3.2.1. I changed nothing in it. Only SU and busybox and removal of the bootloader blob and recovery. So if a game doesn't run, there is nothing I can do about it. It's an Acer deal.

However, I do have one on my notebook, that has "0" acer stuff in it. ;)

I wouldn't mind installing an "Acer-free" ROM on my Iconia...
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, this one does not have a kernel for overclocking yet. It is stock.

I would suggest RTrip's 3.4 kernel.

Or Thor's 3.6 I think.

You have a 501, so going above those versions. might result in 3g screen freeze. I believe there is a link on my Alexandra post.

Hey Moscow, just wanted to say thank you for this.

I'm still running the Acer Recovery 2.55 version of cwm (1.34 i think) and just installed this over your rom. I had nothing to lose (all was backed up anyway).

Anyway it booted up with NO issues at all... no wipes, formats or anything.

However, when you get the time, i would love to get the circle battery indicator again (not sure if the ones you have in your other post would work, but i'll try later tonight).

So again, thanks!

@ordio. Glad your games are running fine. But really, I didn't do anything to the build except install busybox and Superuser :) It's 100% Acer honeycomb.

Be careful with that battery mod. It uses a different framework-res. It's nice to know it works, but it uses a 3.2 framework, and I have "0" clue if they changed any of the xml scripts (a few hundred of them). So if you have some issues........ it ain't MY fault :D
[Acer Iconia A500] ordio:
Haha no worries I know its stock. Just means there was something in my build that was causing these games to not work.

Yeah I know that if I have issues with the battery mod that its not your fault. Everything I do on here is my responsibility. Just wanted to at least you know that it does work.

Looking forward to seeing what you cook up. I know it'll take time. No rush here. Being a programmer I understand it takes time for things to get done.

I certainly apologize for the download. Nothing I can do about it.

I hope in the next 2 weeks or so, we can get some good download servers. These idiot Server administrators, think anything over 150mb is a Pirate video!

I installed this ROM on my A501 in Australia (following all steps inc clean wipe).

The YouTube app won't play videos; it sits on 'Buffering' on the first attempt to play a video, and freezes altogether on the 2nd time. Clear cache/data doesn't help. I had this problem with some other A501 roms I tried, and settled on A501_4.017.03_EMEA_CUS7 as it was the only one that had a working YouTube on my tab.

Is there something different about my hardware that could cause this? Should I try the youtube apk from that rom?

EDIT: Older youtube apk didn't work. I downgraded to the CUS7 ROM and YouTube is working again. I have a working and non-working logcat if anyone can help. Looks like something to do with nvos_linux_stub ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
You Tube has been having problems for the past week or so. The other day, nobody on any rom could get you tube to work, either through the tablet app, or through the browser. Lasted for about a half day, then like magic, it started working again in the afternoon.

I suppose it's happening again. It was effecting most versions of android, including some Gingerbread versions.

Probably best to wait. Civato posted a thread here in the Dev section with a flash version of a phone app the other day, if you want to try. Also, he posted a flash Tablet app to use when YouTube came back online.
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
It is possible that you need the YouTube fix m8, all YouTube apk in the 3.2.1 have problems with random crashes.

I'm honestly not a big Youtube watcher, so it's nice to know when the app isn't working well.
[Acer Iconia A500] galapogos01:
I don't think it's anything to do with the YouTube problems posted elsewhere (I read about them before I posted). As I said, with Acer_A501_0.000.00_4.017.03_EMEA_CUS7 on the tab right before I flashed, YouTube worked fine. With A501_4.483.01_EMEA_TMPL it just hangs at 'Buffering'. I never get an error or Force Close.

I rolled back to 4.017 and checked it was still working. Then I tried A501_4.066.31_COM_GEN1 and I got the same problem.

Back on 4.017 for now until someone works out what's going on.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I use the YouTube app version 3.2.4, and have no issues. What version are you currently using?

Did you try using the version flash that Civato posted earlier?

The problem, is one that needs to be addressed to Google or Acer, as they are the ones who include them in the roms.

This is the "only" 3.2.1 Stock version available for the 501. (excluding the rare bone stock installs that may or may not get an OTA to 3.2.1)

There are "no" back doors. If and when ICS rolls out for the 501 (2-3 months) all bets are off as in back door methods. Mainly because, the bootloader, and communication with the boot image has changed (hence all the issues with the 500 ICS).

Hello.

When you boot to Recovery, it should show a version number. But to be sure, you would have to go to tegraowners.com and update your recovery to the newer version for Honeycomb. Be careful when updating, as some of the recovery versions are for ICS only.

But really, you may want to wait, as it seems a good version of ICS has come out for the 501. We are waiting 1 user for a good system dump.
