Take out battery, wait 10 seconds, reinsert battery, press volume down and while holding just connect via usb to pc. Don't press anything else, just volume down and connect. Now you are in flashmode, so try to reflash stock ftf. If you can't enter flashmode, I don't know what to do :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] a-dummy:
Problem is, the phone does not go into flashmode (volume down + usb connect).

However, it is recognized by Windows as "ZEUS Fash Device".

Is there any alternative way to get into flashmode?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] a-dummy:
Since windows recognizes the phone as "ZEUS Fash Device", I guess there must be some way this can be used. It just freaks me out to see the phone in Windows but it does nothing. It' like a coma or something. :rolleyes:

I suspect that during charge the phone was overvolted as it was first used after overclocking.

The device is identified as Zeus device cause it was unlocked using testpoint

so what u can do is to pray that ur CPU was not overvolted

actually what happened is....i have spice stellar mi-425....it was running fine....today i installed a font using rom toolbox pro....and after instaling it told me to restart the phone....i did the same

after restarting the boot screen appears for once and then the phone gets off.....please help me what should i do?

do i need to install the rom again? :'(
[General Questions and Answers] hakaishi:
Hi mrinalsoni1,

I'm also quite new here but have been working with roms for a while now...

Did you root your phone? - If you have and also have the option to reboot to recovery, then:

Flashing a rom doesn't necessary mean to delete all your settings and data. This happens only when you wipe. So I'd make a backup (just in case) and then reflash the rom.

In case you have to wipe, try to restore your data with the "advanced restore" option. I hope this works out for you. ;)

What is the Jog Button program?

It seems to have installed itself on one of my hardware buttons and ocassionally scrolls through several functions when that button is pressed.

I know how to change the button assignment but am wondering if there is something about Jog Button that we will want to use?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Peter Poelman:
JogButton was just a freeware app we liked which allows multiple functions to be controlled by a single button. Feel free to re-assign the apps using JogButton's 'Tools' menu, or to use the button for something else entirely.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Joe_PDA:

Thanks for the quick reply.

Do you know where I can find a help file for instructions for Jog Button?

I couldn't find it within the device and in playing with the program it just doesn't come to me.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] tekknogenius:
JogButton Instructions

Fairly simple once you get the hang of it...

1. Press-and-hold the contacts button to activate JogButton. This causes the programs in its list to scroll/cycle

2. Release the contacts button when the icon of a program that you want to activate appears

Setup

1. Press-and-hold the contacts button

2. Click on the tools menu at bottom of screen

3. Select setup from the tools menu

4. The dialog that shows lists the programs and order of cycle.

5. Add/Delete/Edit as desired

6. The Snd check box is a toggle for sound/no-sound (a beep as each program is shown)

7. Duration is the number of milliseconds that an icon is shown

Hopefully that answers you questions

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] tekknogenius:
JogButton - Future Plans...

I started coding an alt-tab like feature into JogButton, but was not sure if that would be useful for anyone other than me. As you may know alt-tab in the Windows world scrolls you through the open list of of apps in a Last-in-first-out/Most Recently Used fashion. This would be useful for switching between two apps, the downside would be that you would have to remember the order. I was thinking of putting a toggle on either the menu or in the setup dialog to select this mode.

As for using two buttons, it is possible,but the way PocketPC handles the programs assigned to a button they have to have different names. I would of course have to make a few minor adjustments to allow for this, but it is possible.

I'm up for any suggestions to make this program more useful. Start a list and let's see what we get.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Peter Poelman:
Re: JogButton - Future Plans...

Bug: by timing a quick press just right, I can get it in a mode where it keeps cycling through the programs even though I've released the button already.

I think I was unable to map it to both the hardware buttons using a different list of programs to cycle through for each button. Since a single short press still does the same thing, there's really no reason not to map it to the second button also. (?? Quick hack: map second button to patched Jogbutton2.exe, using different set of registry keys. Better: multiple small stubs which start the real exe telling it which stub was executed. ??)

Maybe map a special action to pressing both buttons at the same time?

Also, something like 'double-press' and 'triple-press' found in some other programs to quickly go to the second and third item (or completely different items) without looking at the phone would be handy. I never really use the rocker-switch, but it could be handy for app starting: just keep the hardware button pressed and hit one of the four directions or the center, giving you 5 new things (per hardware button) to start.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] tekknogenius:
JogButton...

Good suggestions. I can enhance it to use all available buttons. I prefer to use one hand, but others might like to have more options available.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Prowling:
hmm, must be a n00b suggestion, but perhaps it would be possible to use the volume control button? i dont use it for anything anyway.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] tekknogenius:
Only two options... that I know of...

On the XDA/MDA PPCPE there are only two mappable buttons, unlike other PPC that have four or five. It's either the contacts button or the calendar button. Now once an app is mapped to either button and the app is launched, it can control any of the buttons. As a side note, the volume button would be great if it were dual functioning: a press-and-release brings up the volume dialog; a press-and-hold would bring up the record function.

[HTC One X] amq:
I've seen people mentioning this problem in several dev threads and just wanted to share the solution that worked for me.

So what's the problem?

When you connect to some network, the wifi works for some time, but then it stops and you cannot even ping the router's IP, though the signal is good and you seem to be connected. Restarting the wifi works, but the problems repeats.

Solution:

1. Disable WMM (QOS) in router config (for me the problem disappeared right there)

2. Instead of b/g/n select b/g mode (repoted working by some folks in sony threads with similar problem)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pedenski:
some time in the past week, i accidentally dropped my HTC one X and the LCD screen broke (several cracks) which obviously would require a replacement but the phone is still usable, i can still call/text, literally everything except of course the screen is cracked.

So i went to the nearest HTC service center and the screen replacement would cost $260 (converted to dollars from my local currency) PLUS $150 because im using a different ROM (MIUI to be exact) and not the stock ROM.

theyre asking me to pay an additional fee because im using a different ROM and a rooted phone, I only wanted to replace my LCD screen. the OS is still working! and they were saying some technical stuff like the board was broken and other reasons they could think of to persuade me.

now my question, is it still possible to 'unroot' my phone and bring it back to the HTC stock ROM, without a trace of being rooted previously?

this topic is also related to my other post "How to get RUU - i need it to revert back to stock ROM"
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] garfnodie:
It is possible, using an RUU to relock the bootloader and unroot the phone, but where the bootloader says ***TAMPERED*** and ***UNLOCKED*** now, it will change to ***RELOCKED***. AFAIK, there is no way to make the boatloader show ***LOCKED***", it will forever show ***RELOCKED***, unless you unlock it again. So basically there will always be some trace of your phone having been unlocked. Someone else pointed out that, aSsuming you've followed the most popular unlock guides, you had the use the HTC Dev site to get a file, and that since you did that, it's also on record on some server someWhere that you have unlocked your phone.

So basically, unless it's a know manufacturing defect, you are most likely screwed. Don't quote me on that though, as there are always stories of people saying the right things to the right people and getting their devices replaced where most others were not able to.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You can change the flag back to LOCKED if you S-off: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2168578

But as mentioned, HTC presumably has some record of you unlocking the bootloader via the HTCDev.com website.

Plus, there was a thread a while back on the "international" One X forum section where people were reporting that HTC was honoring the warranty for phones with unlocked bootloaders; but

denying

warranty service for unlocked bootloader if a custom ROM was every installed (even if the phone was returned to the stock ROM before sending in for warranty). So apparently, HTC has some way of knowing a custom ROM was ever installed, even if its no longer on the phone.

A question for the OP: have you tried going through your carrier for a repair? Some carriers (such as AT&T) seem to be much more forgiving about modding the phone, and might forego any "custom ROM" fee.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] c5satellite2:
$150 extra to replace a screen because you have a custom Rom? They have no relation. Find someone else to do the repair, or just order the parts and do it yourself. Not very hard to do, order LCD+digitizer, and watch some you tube videos on the process.
