Great damage with chinese smartphone. Please help me :(

Hello everyone. I purchased a cinafonino, more precisely the model iHTC H920 Butterfly on the site fastcardtech. I inadvertently deleted by the application root explorer, the folder "system" in the system memory and now the phone does not start even more it in recovery mode and factory mode. Unfortunately I have not had time to do the backup of the rom and so are in total despair. How can I do? I know you are unsurpassed in this field, so please help if you can. I sincerely thank you for reading all the message and I hope you can do something .... even be able to install any functional recovery would be a dream.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] forest1971:
This guide is for Gnote N7000, so it probably will not be useful for an HTC device. I guess you certainly have to download a ruu rom for htc and flash it using a PC. If you read in your respective forum should be able to find the answer.

Stuck at flashing No Charching Battery

Hi I really need your help/advice.

I understand from the Bricked User Guide I may have dead bricked my Note.

I have a disability which means cant use hands well enough to solder RIFF JTAG.....Do any of you know any other solutions.

MUCH APPRECIATED..:confused:

THANKS..:crying:

I haven't flashed the pit file altogether with the room, in odin. I wonder if that would make any difference than flashing from recovery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] greztukas:
I have soft brick. Need help

How it happens? I got and update stock JB (4.1.2) by OTA one month ago. But it was laggy and drains battery fast, so I wanted to try new JB kernel (Speedmod K5-3). I root my phone (in recovery launched temporary CWM and launched Root_SuperSU 0.96 from external SD. After I've installed mobile ODIN Pro, selected Speedmod kernel (k5-3) .tar file from extSD and launched. Phone restarted and stuks on the Gnote screen. I can enter only download mode. On charger screen show battery without charging level, so I'm not sure if battery charging :(

The first option I think to try are:

1) flash new safe kernel for JB with ODIN (PC). Not sure if first step after flash should be system restart or I need to go into CWM and wipe cache, dalvik or smth else?

2) flash new stock JB rom (ref. to dr.Ketan). Not sure if I will lose all my data after the flashing? Should I wipe smth before first start?.

Please help me (step by step) to unbrick phone and recover all my personal data on phone (if possible). Thank you in advance

My Galaxy Note died on me a few days ago, and Samsung have refused a warranty repair as at one point I had a pre-release JB kernel on it. No yellow triangle but the custom count was 1 :)

Anyway.

Phone will not get past the Samsung GT-N7000 splash screen. I can not get it into recovery mode, just download mode (Vol-,home, power)

I have fully recharged the battery in another Gnote.

can someone guide me on how to restore my note? i can only flash to GB because i got bootloops if i tried to flash JB. however, the problem is i can not get a network apparently because the efs folder in system is empty. i tire fx explorer to copy all files in my backup efs (including hidden files) but every time irestart, the files are gone. i made sure to tick read only after successfully copied all the files to the system/efs folder. i have tried other methods but i don't have an image file nor tar file of my efs, only plain folder. i tried to make a zip file of it and flshed it via recovery mode but still the same. thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] forest1971:
Download 4 zip file, use the file joiner from the 5th link to join file. You will have a rom with multi-parts including the EFS image. Flash this rom should give you a generic emei and a working phone. I cannot give you more details how to flash, though. Goodluck!

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xurizaemon:
My x5 is currently running MIUI v3 2.4.20 with kernel 2.6.35.7-perf but phone gets no mobile connection (mobile signal has X, "Error searching for mobile networks" in mobile network settings, 2G/3G etc greyed out).

I can flash other ROMs onto it via CWM, but it sits at the IDEOS logo after reboot. I don't know what's special about the MIUI v3 2.4.20 that it loads. I'm wiping Dalvik cache, system cache and user data before/after each ROM load.

Previously the phone was running an earlier MIUI build for four or five months, no issues (ok, some occasional "xxx has stopped responding" etc).

A few days ago I decided to upgrade MIUI, so I tried the v3 2.4.20 (Miui_U8800_Multilingual_R6.0-SP1.0.zip) from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1481168 ... but got no mobile. Next I tried an older version from that same thread (Miui_2.4.20-32_U8800_Multilingual_R2.zip) which gave back mobile but it was patchy.

Then I tried the Aurora (aurora_3.0_beta2.zip) and CM7 (CM7-070512.zip) builds pinned to top of http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1123 - neither would boot.

Then I tried going back to MIUI.us_u8800_1.12.9_MUL.zip but that didn't boot either.

Full uname -a is 2.6.35.7-perf #132 PREEMPT Sat Mar 31 12:44:45 CST 2012 armv71

I would love if someone can help me either

1) get mobile connection working in MIUI, or

2) get the phone to boot after installing some other ROM.

Please tell me - what detail am I missing in making this all work?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Migueluxo:
What recovery are you using?

personally i use 5.0.2.7, it's very important the version that you use. Other thing if you are using recovery 5.0.2.7 or 5.5.0.4 try to flash the official firmware then the image that you want.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xurizaemon:
Thanks. Will try that tonight, don't have the device handy. From memory I'm using CWM 5.5.x.

Where is best to obtain the official recovery ROMs? I downloaded some from Huawei but they seem to be upgrade ROMs and CWM doesn't like them (AFAICT). They were -

HUAWEI_U8800_Android 2.3 V100R001C00B526G001-Normal.zip

U8800 V100R001C00B135SP01CUSTC240D001%28UK%29.zip

Is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369296 the right set of instructions to go back to a stock ROM?

EDIT: Maybe not, everyone in that thread is complaining about it lacking Market.app?!

Hi!

I have tried to flash unlocked bootloader V3 from civato's guide, and I could not pass step 6 (flashing bootloader with nvflash or blacthund3r's tool). None of this method didn't work (Nvflasher didn't flash anything, and blackthunder tool was stuck at formating some partition (can't remeber which one).

Last successful step was flashing ICS rom (full leaked version of 1.031.00).

After that I could boot up, and rom worked all fine.

But, after that, I got my self in trouble.... I pressed Vol- & PWR, tablet did his thing, and when reeboted, I got stuck in Acer logo screen with red writing "Boot verified failed" :eek:

I understand that I have messed boot somehow... And to fix this i have to flash new bootloader through nvflash and apx mode. I tried to put update.zip on sd card, but it didn't helped (I still get boot verified failed)

Here, I got another problem. When I have connected tablet in apx mod to pc, i got message "driver not installed". Now, in devices I have "unspecified APX device".

BTW, adb doesn't see my device?!

I hope that You guys can help me with these problems, so that my tablet is operational an running again.

Thanks in advance!
[Acer Iconia A500] shenny585:

I have the same problem but I can not find the v3 bl and CWM Recovery Package to flash with the apx flash utility. If you find them let me know.

This what you have do:

Your recovery is borked so u have to put a new one on there, the best way to

go about doing this is to:

Download the V3 AND CWM Recovery package and apxFlash that.....Done!!

your need to flash the WHOLE PACKAGE b/c ARI reports yr BL as plain old stock

You cannot replace the failed recovery with CWM with the plain old stock BL!!

You have to flash the patched BL as well, so again

You must flash the whole pckg just like in the guide OK

if later u want the stock recovery back u can use ARI to do that but after the apxflash!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] zozo10k:
Thanks for your replay! I'l try to do this and hope it will work...

Yes "WHOLE PACKAGE" unlocked bootloader and CWM

Hi!

Yes, I have dl the drivers from Acer site and installed them. But pc only recognize tab in APX mode. And adb doesn't see my tab.

Every method that I have tried (APX flash tool and nvflash) hangs at some part. APX flash tool hangs at "Flashing bootloader EBT - stage two, and nvflash hangs at formating partition 4.
[Acer Iconia A500] hernborc:
Hi, I´m having similar troubles to get acer drivers working on windows 7 32. I installed newest acer web drivers, ADB works OK. When I get to apx mode I need to manually point to drivers, I have an APX driver with a sign and turns to Acer Picasso USB Boot-recovery driver. The problem is that not any of the tools sees this as a connected tablet in apx mode (afterota or apxflash).

I am doing something wrong? I know a500manager shows me the tablet is in apx mode "please install drivers" when i get APX driver with Sign, after installing the driver manually it just doesn´t show connected anymore.

thanks

Download and install the Google USB drivers.

Google.... Android USB Drivers, and you should get the page for the Android SDK with google drivers.

In Apx mode, go to device manager on your PC, and manually install the drivers. Don't let it search automatically, do it manually. If you get a compatibility warning, ignore it.

Should hook you up with normal, ADB and APX drivers.

[General Questions and Answers] bqudamith:
CHARACTERISTICS

Corning® Gorilla® Glass provides exceptional performance and protection, with distinct advantages over other materials.

Damage resistance: Gorilla Glass is chemically strengthened through an ion-exchange process that creates a deep compression layer on the surface of the glass substrate. This layer acts as “armor” to reduce the introduction of flaws by end users.

Thinner form factor: Depending on application and manufacturer specifications, Gorilla Glass can be produced in thicknesses ranging from 0.5 mm to 2 mm. Even at 0.5 mm, Gorilla Glass retains a performance advantage over other cover materials.

Unparalleled surface quality: Corning’s proprietary fusion process gives Gorilla Glass the same superior surface as all of our high-technology display substrates. This extraordinarily precise, highly automated process produces glass with exceptionally clean, smooth, flat surfaces and outstanding optical clarity.

Compliance with environmental standards: Gorilla Glass is compliant with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS).

Compatibility with touch screens: Gorilla Glass is an ideal cover sheet for touch screens. It’s tough enough to handle the surface pressures intrinsic to these devices, and exceptionally thin to enable more sensitive and accurate responses.

Easy-to-clean, wear-resistant coating: Customers can request Gorilla Glass with a special coating, making it easier to clean than other cover glasses – a perfect feature for touch devices.

:):):) But if you want to sell your phone one day , it is better to use a protector with it:):):) . Because nothings perfect.

I've had and atrix for a while and dropped it from a considerable height facedown onto hardwood, completely shattering the screen. While waiting for my replacement to be shipped to me, I thought I'd do some testing on the scratch resistance of Gorilla Glass. Scraping keys, nails, and other various objects across the screen caused no damage whatsoever to the surface of the glass. Make a long story short, the screen protectors are a scam in my opinion.

[General Questions and Answers] VanillaCracker:
Not Necessary, but nice to have.

I've got a Galaxy SII (I777) and have had it for about 6 months or so.

It's got Gorilla glass and although I can't say I've been stupid enough to purposefully put a key to my phone or TRY to scratch it with my nails or anything like that, I can say that I literally have no REAL scratches on the screen. There are a few microscratches, and when I say a few that means less than 20 (and I literally have to put a light right up against the phone in order to see them.

I've had my phone without a screen protector for about 5 out of those 6 months. A case covering it (Case-Mate Barely There) and had the phone in my pocket (not against keys) and on the desk, bed, - dropped it a couple times, can't say I dropped it on the screeen; if so I didn't see any marks) for about 2 months, and in a case for the rest. Currently using a screen protector ONLY BECAUSE, I realized after about 3 months or so that the oleophobic coating on the screen was starting to wear off cus I was getting more smudges, and more finger prints, and it was harder to clean.

Tried a Matte screen protector despite all the warnings (really wanted no finger prints :( but after about 2 weeks decided it was a piece of **** for dimming the colors so much that I got a crystal clear instead - btw SGP is great) and am happy with it atm. I could go bare screen instead of having the crystal clear on but I'd rather have it cus it's a little nicer to use than the screen after the oleo has worn off. My $0.2, since I've been through the situation myself a few months ago. Hope you make good decisions, best of luck to ya.
[General Questions and Answers] altgamer:
You can get away with skipping a screen protector if your device has gorilla glass, as it'll be far more resistant to scratches, etc than normal glass would be.

I wouldn't say it's impossible though.. I myself use screen protectors even with gorilla glass, just for events you can't predict, more or less for peace of mind.

Screen protectors are the way to go if you dont have one you will get small and annoying marks on your phone gorrila glass or not

the fact is the concept of the glass is there but the fact is It will get scratched yes i know but they called it gorrilla glass but trust me i am sure even a banana would scratch the thing so be safe USE PROTECTION ( yes i know it feels better without) But there is a reason why they called it protection!!!

[General Questions and Answers] Pyra Gorgon:
maybe...maybe not

Some things seem like a good idea, and with a screen protector, it definitely would not hurt...

but I have never used a screen protector on my iconia a500 or my ZTE x500 phone. I have long fingernails, my phone gets tossed into my purse with all sorts of other things...never a scratch.

So maybe screen protectors are like wearing suspenders AND a belt...just to be safe. I just think they are a pain to put on well and a waste of money.

YMMV.
