i think so is a korean firmware
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
Maybe you can find firmware for it on sammobile.com
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] johnarela:
Sammobile.com didn't have the firmware for shw-m290k please help me about this or can i install cyanogenmod here? o any roms?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] nifterific:
i have cyanogenmod 7.2 on my M290K, the sensors, bluetooth and wifi hot spot dont work, but the roms is functional otherwise. the screen will be inverted, but hold the phone upside down and disable sensors in cyanogenmod settings and your screen will be correct but no auto rotate. i posted the stock firmware in the thread for cm7.2 and asked about wifi and he said he will work on a patch for it.

but if you do not want cyanogenmod you can find the stock firmware at the end of the cm7 thread and flash it with odin, i posted it there forhim to use as a reference for the patch.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] bignikescar:

edit- Okay I got odin to restore the stock rom but my back up still wont restore. I wish I knew the problem, but it says it cannot format /system.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lexvdub1:
Okay guys, my phone has EK02 and rooted with stock Rom. I don't mind losing the root, if I can get it back using that same method, will sfhub method work after I do the OTA update.

Will titanium backup affect the phone in any way?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
You cant root EL29 or any EL with the Auto Root. Since the phones rooted you might be able to option C EL29+CWM (on the latest version) but im not 100% on that and it wont flash the modem for you.

But what I will point you to is something that does work also from sfhub - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433101

There are 2 versions in there a full and a no data. This will flash the modem for you which otherwise would not be done. But to get CWM you still need to use the E4GT Auto option C and EL29+CWM. But with these you will have a stock rooted EL29 and upon the last step custom recovery.

I am sure someone else, sfhub of course included can comment on just using e4gt auto to copy the EL29+CWM rom over.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lexvdub1:
So it would probably safer for a noob like me to go the long route, ie.. Perform OTA update>>>reRoot using option A>>>Then running option C after A is completed.

The only reason I say this because I've been reading and noticing that people are losing their WIFI or 3G antenna after installing CMW.

So i've been kinda skeptical about running CMW.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s9amme:
You shouldn't lose WIFI or 3G if you use the option 'c' in the auto-root package. Its a stock kernel with only CWM added, I believe.

You can't use the auto-root anymore after EK02. They plugged that exploit from EL13 and up. You have to use sfhubs pre-rooted odin one click packages. You only use the auto root to either unroot or add CWM. If you want EL29 + stock, use the pre-rooted odin package (no data version, if you want to retain your stuff). Its simple to do. CMW is optional after that if you want to flash custom mods or roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
As i said beforeyou cant use auto root on el29 . The zerg exploit is patched. If you OTA update the only way to get root back is ODIN which is going to overwrite anything previously done anyways.

If the phone passes the ek02 to el29 check under the d option on the latest auto root you CAN ota update to EL29 and you LOSE root. At which point you will need to use ODIN or sfhubs One Click ODIN for EL29 to have root.

All you need todo to go straight to a stock rooted EL29 is run sfhubs one click odin for el29 and he has a no data option that wont delete your apps and info.

If you pass the check you can alternatively use sfhubs ota style update he has posted. But the odin is one and done. Very simple.

I am using cwm via proper methods personally nothing to report. 3g 4g and wifi all good on my end.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lexvdub1:
I didn't understand at first, but after watching the video and both of you guys explanations, i'm in like flint.

I will do this later on and you guys posted, looks pretty straight forward.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s9amme:
Yup, simple as it can get. I just did this about 2 Weeks ago. Took about 10 mins to do. Just follow sfhub's clear instructions on the thread. Also came from just stock ek02 + root and wanted to update to el29 with only root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lexvdub1:
Guys rooting and CWM worked with no problem, thanks for the help.

One question, I performed a NANDROID backup, where is this backup stored?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethankz750:
February 29, Mircosoft is supposed to release the consumer Beta of Windows 8. Reported to support Intel, AMD, and ARM processors, assuming I read the article correctly. Is it likely that we would be able to port it to our Touchpads? I know thats been asked before, with a resounding answer of "No, the only tablets to get Win8 will be blah blah blah." Or "Microsoft wouldn't allow users to blah blah blah."

Don't get me wrong, I'm over-joyed with the advent of CM9 being finished sooner now that the source code from HP has been released. But, being a windows fanboy, I can't help myself wishing for a release on my Touchpad.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sean is here.:
With the release of the Android kernel this week, I think our chances increased. But let's not rush devs...someone will pick up the ball and run with it if they choose to do so.

That doesn't really answer your question, but sorry. Currently, you're correct. The HPTP doesn't run Windows. But in the future...well, if I could know what would happen tomorrow or next week, I'd work on Wall Street and just buy a Transformer Prime, and a Win8 tablet, and an iPad2, a Bugatti Vehyron (sp?) etc you get the point.:D

Due to the way it will be distributed and the licensing, XDA cannot promote the development or porting of it. /thread

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethankz750:
Correct, I was just curious about it. Thanks for the reply Sean. Based on Microsoft's past, I would assume they will offer Win8 ARM to be installed on any compatible tablet, just like they do with Windows desktop. I am aware that tablets vary, so it might not be possible currently. If they do offer a purchasable Win8 ARM, I will be first in line to buy it. If it does end up being (inevitably) warez, then I will not be promoting it here, where big brother can see me.:rolleyes:

Off topic, I come here, to the Q&A thread, to discuss, read discussions, and bounce ideas around. This may be XDA Dev but, if thats all we did was dev, then we wouldn't need a forum to

It is more likely that Windows 8 ARM will be an OEM only product, just made available to developers and hardware manufacturers (like MS do with Windows Storage Server), as it will need significant driver customisation for each platform.

"x86/64 apps will not be able to be ported to ARM" http://m.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/02/how-windows-apps-will-run-on-arm-tablets/

Also there will be two total hardware versions this is being developed to run on.

Why would anyone want this? Without the x86 programs it might as well be the next Windows phone in tablet version (flop)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dijonemon:
Metro / HTML5 apps is where they will push a unified app experience with Windows Phone 8, XBOX 360, Windows 8. These will run on x86 or ARM, and as these will be touch friendly, it could be a big hit for MS on tablets. I agree that ARM versions of Windows 8 will probably only be OEM licensed, but we can always hope they open it up for independent developers.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
With all the restrictions Microsoft is putting on the ARM version it sounds like it would be quite a pain to get something working. HP tested Windows 8 on the Touchpad since OEMs have had access to the ARM developer preview already.

Seeing that ARM Windows won't run x86/64 Windows programs, it probably won't be of that much use anyways. About the biggest selling point I see is Microsoft is making Office for ARM I believe so it would be nice to have a real Office Suite. But Android is also getting LibreOffice.

Really, what tha sense in using this crap, if there will be no apps? It's only reason to use windows, IMHO...

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
www.anandtech.com/show/5527/microsoft-provides-windows-on-arm-details

Latest info on it. (2/10/2012)

Short version: no x86 apps on ARM (they have to be installed through Windows own app market), licenses only distributed through OEMs. And don't forget that ALL Windows on ARM tablets will be required to have a locked and signed bootloader.

My opinion: I don't see what the fuzz and excitement is all about Win 8 ARM tablets, they will run in closed, controlled environment that mirrors more Windows Phone 7 than desktop Windows. I can definitely see the less informed people thinking they can essentially port all their laptop experience into a tablet seamlessly, hence the excitement, but once you know what Windows on ARM really is going to be, there isn't much to be excited about.

EDIT: Allow this topic to end once and for all

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richard Mongler:
How long do you actually expect that to last without a workaround?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
You're missing the point, that's one of many failsafes, including no source code and an enforced signed bootloader will make it development hell for most devices.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richard Mongler:
I think you're missing the point.

Microsoft is releasing their software to OEMs only and not to private developers/individuals because they want to create a software ecosystem comparable to Apple's model -- one closed Mobile OS, one "open" Workstation OS, one open Server OS -- but that doesn't mean porting it is going to be completely impossible. On top of that, all the complaints about x86 applications not running in ARM environments are a bit silly.

Have you ever actually tried to use a desktop OS on a tablet? I have.

Windows 7:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8I_KjP8Dc4

Ubuntu:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp6b3kOKWbg

OSX (yes, that OSX):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUpKN1ckGhE

x86 applications and other full-OS applications are NOT fun or easy to manipulate without a proper keyboard and mouse, it ends up being more annoying than convenient and you'll go to your laptop or desktop to do what you needed to do anyway. This is a good move for Microsoft, even if XDA doesn't like it.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danknee:
Good move? Hardly. This means they are showing up to the tablet game late, with a virgin OS, and without any software. Look for a repeat of the Windows Phone launch.;)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spunker88:
Secure boot will be able to be disabled in the BIOS on OEM Windows 8 systems it sounds like.

http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/leading-pc-makers-confirm-no-windows-8-plot-to-lock-out-linux/4185
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] littleemp:
Read the article I linked about the Bootloader from Ars Technica and then read yours again. Nowhere does it state that this applies to the Windows on ARM version of the OS.

x86 machines will be able to boot with Secure Boot disabled just fine, ARM versions won't.

Technical reasons aside, do you know the reason why development simply won't take off? Because XDA isn't a piracy website and nobody wants to get sued for hosting pirated content. IF Microsoft puts their foot down (like they are doing), Windows on ARM development will simply not happen.

Why is it different for homebrewed WP7 ROMs? Because it falls into an undefined grey area.

People need to STOP dreaming about Windows on ARM on current hardware and just go buy a new device with it preloaded once it comes out, because unless Microsoft makes several concessions to the development community, it's simply not going to happen.

Now to address your other point, WOA isn't going to be the panacea of tablets like so many people want to think simply because it's plastered with the Windows logo. It's going to be a Metro themed ARM-compatible OS separate from the x86 versions, it will have a separate "App Store", and it will NOT run .exe files. It won't be a Desktop-on-Tablet Experience, just another competitor to Android and iOS (And a late one to the race while at that).

I have looked at the Metro UI and what Windows 8 has to offer and I'm not impressed. Also I cannot understand all the hype, since Microsoft tends to exaggerate things to garner attention (e.g. Vista will be a "Gamer OS", we all know how that turned out... Took them a year to bring up performance to par with XP and another year to crank out 7 and finally make it better than XP), so if Microsoft isn't even boasting this time around and just letting misdirection and poor communication from their PR create all this hype, it's going to fall flat on it's face.

In conclusion, WOA is simply going to be another tablet OS, one that is late to the party, most likely buggy and in need of patching and a lot of feedback to bring to a satisfactory level. Will it be a complete flop? Who can tell... But it will most definitely not revolutionize tablets as we know them. (And this point can be taken as a fact, since Microsoft has NEVER released something working properly, it has always taken them a lot of time and patches)

EDIT: And I mention x86 applications, because this is what has people to riled up and excited over the whole thing, being able to translate their desktop/laptop experience and programs into a tablet. You may understand the difference here, but all the people asking these questions ("Will it run on my Touchpad?" "Will it run on my Asus Transformer?") do not.

:pBeen there and loved it but, I couldn't find enough help or support to continue to run it. I had Ubuntu on my Macbook Pro but, even with all the help, we couldn't get the wireless to work. I even learned to compile my own drivers. Sigh, I want to so bad. Only thing I use windows for is work and gaming. KVM switch to my macbook for web browsing editing software. Linux would be awesome to run in place.

Sorry off subject.

What I don't understand is why tablets are being treated so differently from desktops and laptops. Sell me something that will work with my machine, like you've done in the past. Give me support on legacy applications. iOS is popular, why because its distributed amongst multiple platforms with progressive desktop integration. Android is slowly becoming a full on OS. I foresee it eventually offering a full desktop OS, with supported software like we are used too. Im rambling but, ugh I would kill for a full blown mobile AutoCAD and not that **** they put out there right now.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewmur:
Sorry, but if you've only tried Linux on a Mac, then you haven't really "been there". The normal solution for wireless problems in Linux is to use ndiswrapper. That allows you to use your Windows driver for your wireless NIC. But since your box is a MAC, even that won't work.:mad:
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethankz750:
ndiswrapper worked but, my machine would heat up quickly. Not very desirable. I had Ubuntu 9.04 on my Dell Dimension 8200. It work relatively well but, again no support for wireless. Which in this case was a USB stick. It would connect to anything but WPA, which is what I was using at the time.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewmur:
9.04 is three years ago. Linux has come a LONG way since then. I connect to WPA secured routers all the time. Haven't had any problem doing so in a long time. Even back in the 9.04 era you could solve the problem if you used WICD instead of the default Network Manager.

I don't know who you asked for "support" but it obviously wasn't the right person. My favourite site for Linux support is the BATL forum at Scotsnewsletter.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethankz750:
I was using the ubuntu forums at the time. Linux wasn't going to be my primary OS for the time being. So further research wasn't priority. I've been wanting to dig deeper into computing and Linux is where I want to start. But, right now I need a fully operational rig for work. Once I have a tertiary computer to utilize, I'll test it out again.

Office for the Desktop portion would be amazing. I could bring a Touchpad and bluetooth keyboard to class, and leave the big laptop at home. Since the next Windows 8 milestone is a *consumer preview*, wouldn't it be legal to port it over to the Touchpad?

And yes I'll get an x86 Medfield tablet eventually, but it will be a long while before a decently priced, 12", multi-core Medfield unit with an attachable keyboard dock is available.

Hello everybody.

I have a customer with a broken digitizer on his HTC 7 Mozart.

I've bought a digitizer from an Ebay store named Accmonster, but it's not working even when they send me another digitizer. The digitizer seems horizontally reverted, when I press on the left of the screen it clicks on the right. It strange.

I plan to buy a digitizer from another shop, but to avoid more waiting time for my customer ( about 2 month by now sic ! ) I want to have your feedback on a shop that sells working digitizer.

So If you have changed your digitizer recently for this smartphone, can you give me the URL of the shop please ?

It will help me lot !

Thank you.
[7 Mozart General] fx.lagwagon:

it's got to do with the firmware version. Use a genuine replacement part, it'll work perfectly.

Where can I find genuine parts, I didn't know HTCwas selling some.

Thanks for your answer.
[7 Mozart General] weiwenpeng:
I did it... but not easy...

I changed a broken digitizer on his HTC 7 Mozart few weeks ago and I tried 2 times to get it right...

(1) There are 2 version of the digitizer on Mozart: Version 1 and Verion 2

https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=245DC224B8842C5F&id=245DC224B8842C5F%21173

I tried version 2, did not work because, back space touch buttom and touch screen did not sensor my finger in the right location on the screen. Then I installed version 1 digitizer and it works perfectly for Mozart.

(2) Once you install a new digitizer, for some reson... the Mozart needs to flash the firmaware back to 7004 (I flashed back to "RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.28.111.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50_RELEASE.exe" and flshed again to "RUU_Mozart_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_4.06.707.00_5.69.09_RELEASE.exe" ... after Zune upgrade to latest firmware. (I used Y- cable and GoldKey to downgrade and cross-regional flash rom.)

Good lock.

I've read that task killers aren't neccessary and also less free ram reported should mean better performance. firstly, task killers haven't done crap and i have less ram yet its running far slower than when i first got it.
