Did you flash also the .pit file inside the package, right?

Now re-flash the ROM: CSC, CODE & MODEM but ATTENTION! DON'T FLASH THIS .PIT u1_02_20120326_emmc_EXT4_8GB.pit!!!

Instead flash this one: View attachment 1182568

yes i flashed that pit.. but im now on gingerbread la4 one package file but still the same problem of not writing or copying to/from mmc . i think formatting the system and restarting the phone is causing the problem.??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graemeg:
If you flashed the .pit file in the latest leak then im afraid youre done for, i cant think of any solution because eventually if you keep flashing and wiping youre gonna brick out.

Needs a samsung service to fix this me thinks, why did you flash the pit???, its not aan i9100 official pit, the official is 16gb, NOBODY else flash this pit file please.

is it anyway caused by formatting the system and automatic reboot after putting the battery in or is it because of the wrong pit file.?? and if it is because of pit file can i reflash the lq5 firmware with the default pit..

Hello,

I have a problem.

Device bootloader unlocked, CWM Recovery v5.5.0.4 installed.

I tried to flash Acer_AV043_A700_1.025.00_EMEA_CUS1.

I thought that this firmware a zip file, then need to flash with CWM.

After nandroid backup start wipe data/factory reset and tablet hanged.

Then I reboot it and see nothing, just "Acer".

When with CWM restore my backup, system wrote something abought "MD5".

What can I do? Help me please!!! and sorry for my english.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Itchiee:
Can you wipe cache and davlik cache?

Or try this:

While off hold volume+ button (one dot) and power button and then toggle the rotation switch on and off a few times.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nurbek05:
For now I'm not at home. Will try and right away write.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
More than likely bricked. Best send it in for service.

As best as I can tell, you have to use the exact same rom version to go back to original.

Also, it seems CWM "may" have an issue restoring recovery backups. It's possible the data partition gets corrupted on restore, with possible system partition as with one other user. Hanging at the "wiping/formatting data seems to be a problem.

The MD5 is the checksum, which verifies the recovery backup is the same.

Remember, this is new territory, and a lot of this is untested.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
Turn it in for service.

Your partitions are all destroyed. Data, System, and so it seems cache.

You can try getting a full rom, naming it to update.zip, and try installing using Vol + and PWR. this will of course wipe out you CWM and install a stock bootloader, but you already know it doesn't work anyhow.

If you can find the exact same rom it came shipped with, it might work.

Unfortunately, not a lot of roms to choose from right now, and asking for a certain version rom probably won't get many answers. Seems certain tabs require certain factory roms to run.

If your authorized Acer repair center is local, they may not charge you much for installing the correct service rom. Maybe.

70x Development is new. And these things happen, so expect it.

MD
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nurbek05:
Thank you, but I try.

Can you give me system.img?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Moscow Desire:
I don't have a system.img for your 700.

But, in the Dev forum, they have several full stock roms for download in the "ROMS" thread.

No, I do not know if they will work for you.

Sorry I can not be of much more help.

seems we can only wait for NVflash

your situation is just same as mine,seeming bricked after using fatory rest or wiping from cwm,I think it's the problem of the damn cwm.as i know from now there are several devices got bricked,all because of the goddamn cwm.as we know factory rest is the same as recovery wiping,i use the under the official recovery,everything wen fine,but after wiping via cwm from the forum,it appeared the problem.

i tried a lot of method,just as u mentioned,to flash *.img

but i found a curious thing,after dumping series of *.img from a well-mailfuntioning device i can use fastboot to flash "userdata" which the loaction is mmcblk010 or /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/UDA,but after flashing,i can't erase userdata block in fastboot.then i reflashing the data.img to userdata block,then in cwm,i can mount /data,but it's still not able to wipe or format it.then i've found a data.img and flashing the userdata and reboot.then i enter the system,and it forced me to do a factory reset,of course as before,it's not mailfunctioning because of the cwm or the block itself damaged..

but i can enter adb,and i found that i can see the /data and the filesystem in it.then i use mount to modify it,for i can delete or modify the files in /data,and it appears normally.i delete everything in /data.then i want to try to reboot to see if it's working,but after rebooting,the device stuck at acer logo,then i reboot into the cwm,it can't be mounted again.it seems that i can flash the userdata but i can't format or wipe or modify...

and i tried to reflash the bootloader from a well-mailfunctioning deivece,not working,either.

then i go for searching the situation in google,i found there are a lot of similar problems of the tegra device,and the solution is nvflash...

i don't know if there are a block saving the information of partitions just like the PIT file of my galaxy s2,seems we should wait for nvflash?or the method to flashing PIT partitions file?

i installed the nvflash driver by modifying the usb id,but i can't do anything from nvflash,it's not matching.

DO NOT even think about running an A500 RUUs rom on your tablet.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sure way to brick any device.

What you can do, is send lots of contacts to Acer, and demand the SBK (secure bootloader key). Then you can start thinking about NVFlash.

Whats the best and thinest case for the gs3? Please post links thanks

[Galaxy S III Accessories] falconeight:
The official Samsung slim case is the thinnest.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ang.roni:
This is the only part where i kinda miss iPhone, accessories! I guess imma have to go with capdase.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rEVOLVE:
They should make a case that's just a back replacement like the flip case, but w/o the flip cover and make it surround and protect the shiny front side edge trim w/ a slight raised edge.

I saw mention of the OEM slim case by Samsung, but does this actually replace the back like the flip cover case?

I use the flip case now and it's very thin because it just replaces the back. The only added thickness is from the flip cover on the front which is minimal. My gripes with it are that I know the outer edges of the phone surrounding the screen will get wear since it's not protected and the cover doesn't always stay shut as well as gets in the way when taking pictures or using the phone flash as a torch. I wish the flip wasn't like a book, but as a vertical flip, but then people would get annoyed with the flip cover getting in the way of the headphone jack. Since I use a bluetooth LG Tone for audio and use bluetooth to my car stereo, not a problem for me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] falconeight:
Cut the cover off

[Galaxy S III Accessories] falconeight:
I thick it's better than scratch protection. It bulges out slightly in the corners and is a rubbery plastic. It even slightly protrudes from the front to give protection. I absolutely love the case. I bought a light blue and have it on a white s3 and it looks sweet.
[HD7 General] Magpir:
I have stopped doing this as i found out that once the phone full charged ( leD green) , the wifi if ON is still conencted and running in full power mode and this seems to drain the battery , while the battery indicator is showing 100%!

when unplugged in the mrning, just a 1 hour or 2 hour use seems to drain the battery to 50% because the the whole night while it was conencted it was being used by the wifi

so now when i had the phone fully charged i just disconnt it and leave it to rest.

In th emorning the phone seems to behave normally and left with juice to last whole day even after 8 hours on sleep standby...

hello, i have been using android devices for a very long time

and after many reviews i have find out that all the tablets and devices are the same in their stracture but still icould not understand why there is so many troble to make a normal 4.0 isc with root on the xoom.

and why all the fuzz about the europe version of the device ?

i don't andrstand why programmers and hackers have such troble in making a simple one click root solution as people have done for other devices please explaine it to me.

thank you,

Daniel.

p.s. please understand that i am a simple user.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Legato Bluesummers:
One click roots are nice but they take away any and all learning. So most people root not understanding what they have just done. They just rooted to root. Making you peg away at the command line quickly shows you what your changing and how. Yeah it takes more then 2 mouse clicks. But it never took me more then 5 minutes either. Now all the roms I use are pre rooted. But I honestly prefer command line to one click. Just a personal preference.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chaosgod27:
I'm quite sure one click root is not universal for all devices even on the same version, unless it was some exploit such as the zergrush which is just temporary. Another issue is that one click root, there is a higher chance of bricking the device due to the fact it might not have been specifically developed for that device.

Before Reading i do not take responsebilty of anything you choose to do to your device

Ok guys, so im very sure half of us flash the XXLQ5, and im more than sure half of those who flashed it used the pit file, before they knew there was something wrong with it, so what happened to me exactly was this

i flashed XXLQ5 via odin, with pit file

booted up device (i was so happy)

i had a bunch of mods, zips, etc. files in my usb storage, so i said lets format it

it showed 11.50 GB, like it should, but when i formated it, it showed 4.10 GB

i was then going crazy, i formatted it twice again with no help

i flashed siyah kernel, then formated it from siyah kernel, still no help

i pluged it into my pc, (mass storage and media) and formated it, still no luck

i flashed GB via odin, (with no pit), and formated it after boot, and still no luck

i flashed cm9 via odin, (with no pit), and formated it after boot, and same thing

so i called Samsung tech support (i had to), and told everything

the guy asked how experienced am i, i told him "what"

he said "did you flash this on your phone, or a friend"

i said "no me", he then told me about how half of the phone calls today was about this problem

then he asked me for my email, he said they have made a pit file to fix this problem

and he would send it to me via email

so here it is everyone, how to fix your usb storage

take that pit file, choose you favorite 4.0.3 rom, MUST BE ODIN FILES (i recommend XWLPG)

and flash it using this pit file, when you boot up, DO NOT CHANGE KERNEL

go to settings/storage/erase usb storage

you will see you usb storage go from 4 GB to 11.5 GB

IF I HELPED YOU OUT, DONT FORGET TO PRESS THE THX BUTTON

HERE'S THE LINK TO THE PIT FILE

after you have formatted your usb storage, you can safely change your kernel

:thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown:

That's quite offensive. Why do you think that? Honestly, I don't feel like an idiot just because I've flashed this leak (nor the other dozen leaks I've flashed so far, like the first 2.3.3, 2.3.4, 4.0.1 etc.) As I don't use .pit file, as advised by devs and senior users, I haven't experienced the problem discussed here, and my experience with LQ5 has been great so far. So, why should I be labeled as an idiot?
[Galaxy S II General] graemeg:
Absolutley offensive, but i see both sides, BUT THERE IS NO NEED TO INSULT PEOPLE on here because they flashed the leak, i dont know who you are, or think you are, but youre obviously one of these people who think coz they know more than the average user that they are better than them.

People this is a community, we all make mistakes, but as a community we should be here to help each other, and senior members should be setting an example and helping where we can and not labelling others idiots.

May i suggest that if you have nothing useful to input to this community then take yourself off to a quiet corner and have a word with yourself, and leave others alone, because seriously dude, no-one on here wants to read your crap.

As for the author of this post, congrats on finding a fix, well done and thankyou, this happened on Gnote and it was unfixable, but it seems you found a solution and shared with the community, good work friend, this is definitley a workable solution, so anyone affected, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, read the stickies, read the guides, and, DONT rush out and flash leaks so fast, it seems the main issue was the pit, but you should recognise instantly that an 8gb pit file is not an i9100 pit file, someone else flashed a 32gb pit from the galaxy tab on his i9100 not long back and bricked out, DONT EVER FLASH THE PIT, ignore it.

Samsung only use the 1 pit file, the 16gb pit, if that is not what is whith a rom you download then you should immediatley exercise caution and investigate before you do anything.

Id just like to ad, it doesnt make you an idiot, it just means you screwed up, its a lesson to learn from, hopefully all in the future will be more careful.
