Be carefull when you try to replace the header in the downloaded ROm with the original one. Some HEX editors don't replace, but simply copy the header. Somewhere on this forum there is a app that automatically replaces the first 416 bytes. I ahve attached it in this post.

In theory, you should get the Bigstorage ROM from the server in nb1 format, open it, replace the header with the bytes from your own ROM, write it back to SD card with external card reader, get MDA in bootlader, attach USB cable and press power.

Alternatively you can do it the way I did. First use a 1.12 ROm from the server, use MAUprage-NoID.exe to upgrade to normal 1.12 ROM, then dump the ROM to SD, copy it to your desktop, patch with MKS wonderdful app. This way you don't have to patch the header, since it is already from your own device. Then write the file back to your cardreader with ntrw, get in bootlader, attach USB and press power to flash. I did it this way. I did not get the "press power to flash" message, but just unplugged and attached the USB cable again. Still no message, but after pressing power it started the flash anyway.

Only other solution if this does not work for you is to clean your MDA by putting on a fresh ROM, straight from the server and start all over. Also be careful to deactivate ActiveSync. I have no idea what goes wrong in your case, so perhaps you better start from scratch again and follow the procedure carefully.

@MKS: Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am already looking forward to your next surprise you have in store for us! is it unlocking the Simlock for us? Is it an even easier way to patch ROMS without SD card hassle, but just over cable? Man, I can only guess, but I am sure it is worth the wait!

Magician is dead

hello guys, i'm really desperate now. my magician is dead. i followed the procedure 100% for upgrading to bigstorage. that's what i did:

- dump rom on to the sd card (512MB).

- got a external card reader (since the one in my laptop did not work with ntrw.exe)

- killed activesync (wcesmgr)

- dumped the rom to my hard disk

- got Big_ROM_Ger_1.11.nb1 from ftp

- changed the first 416 bytes with ultraedit.

- wrote the resulting rom to the sd card with ntrw.exe.

- flashed (got the question in bootloader mode, pressed power).

- flash completed, got the 100% message and checksum failure.

- did a softreset

- my magician is now DEAD !!!

Tried to put it in bootloader mode again, nothing! Put out the battery, unplugged and replugged usb cable, nothing!

PLEASE, any suggestions or help ??????

Did you try a hard reset?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] duncan888:
what happens if I apply the bigstorage rom to my MDA then later a new rom appears, would the new ROM overwrite the bigstorage and put everything back to normal? (just give u 7mb)

also if I apply the bigstorage rom, what splash screen appears on the startup?

Thanks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] 7bft:
hard reset

yes, i tried a hard reset (hodling power key and reset button).

i removed the battery a few hours for now and tried to put it in bootloader again by holding the camera button + power button + reset but still nothing.

any more ideas?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] tadzio:
Re: Magician is dead

This would actually be the first time I hear of a Magician being killed by flashing a new ROM. What I mean is: I don't think it's broken beyond repair.

Try removing the main battery and leave it out over night (so that the backup battery also runs dry). Then, when you put the battery back in, don't even try to boot normally (there might be something wrong with your firmware... ;) ), but instead go directly to bootloader mode, without any cables attached. I am confident that this will work.

Then, try restoring your original ROM.

It seems some SD cards cause problems. For me, for example, an MMC just didn't work. The least trouble seem to cause 128 or 256 MByte cards.

I druck' da de Daumen!

Cheers

I'll do that. Do you know how long the backup battery needs until it is empty??

I have tried to search the forum, but couldn't find anything. So sorry if anything has been posted in the past regarding the same problem.

OK, I used to have Cardio Trainer on a Galaxy S2 and I used the app on my way home from work. And in general the distance the app showed I walked was the same.

I started using the app on the Nexus 4. But the distance suddenly changed (exactly same route), Nexus showing up to 7.x km, where S2 showed 6.5km. After a few weeks the Nexus was getting closer and closer to the 6.5km. After having a play around (rooting etc) I ended up starting from scratch. Exactly the same thing happened again that the distance was wrong on the Nexus. And now after the 4.3 update it is happening again.

What is going on here? Anyone experienced anything similar?
[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
So Im switching to the G pro from the HTC One And I HATE AT&T`s 4G and 4GLTE Data icon its stupid!

I want to be be 3G,H,H+,4G or LTE to show up not what AT&T changed it to be I want it to be stock. On the HTC One I had to change the CID and on the S4 it was simple just a build prop change to make it have the international icons.

Im guessing there is NO international Rom for the G Pro for AT&T Correct that I can load? Would LOVE that as it would easily allow me to tether AND have the international data icons and signal.

And I know you can change them in the SystemUI but its NOT easy replacing AT&T`s Images like the international ones are.

Hey guys, im new to this, this is my first thread and i just rooted my device yesterday for the first time. So, I have an htc one S, and after rooting the phone I tried to put cyanogenmod on it. The phone booted, but was stuck on the screen where it said "cyanogenmod" and their was a blue light circling the word...so i guess it was stuck on the boot screen? when the phone goes into clockwork recovery mode, i cant really do anything either because it shuts off after like 10 seconds, or if i press any of the options there then it also shuts off. Also, sometimes the phone doesnt turn on, sometimes it does....i really have no idea what's going on :/. PLEASE HELP !!

Nice, but I'll rather wait for the update. I actually don't have low volume bug, cause when I connect phone to my headset or external speakers, it's pretty loud. But that's probably cause I'm using Beatsaudio and SRS together. The only issues I have is with random crashes, which happen unexpectedly. But they are not frequent.

low sound bug has nothing to do with headset,,headset vol. was already good,problem was with phone speaker, now it has been solved with this update..

Oh, my bad. Well, even then I have no issues with low sound since as I said, I'm using SRS. It boosts the sound and even on lowest I can hear it just fine.

I had the same problem already few times. I thing that the best way to solve is the hard-reset of the device(and data backup of course). This problem appears after I have installed some conflicting applications that damages the input-panel resource files. Ex:I've installed one buggy application and afterwards the input panels was disappeared and I was unable to type any text at the device. Hard-reset helps.

Hello, So i tryed to flash to CM10 rom for LG E970 and my screen went black after reboot. So then I tried t go back to stock with LGNPST and it would get to the logo and stop. So then (lol) I tried using a teenybin instead and now I can't get download mode to show up and all the screen will do it show a gray battery with a lighting bolt and sometimes when trying to power on or get to download mode it'll act like it's about to do something and shows a black screen with google in grey and an unlocked lock at the bottom of the screen. Help is all lost or can i fix this??:confused:
[LG Optimus G (International)] JasonBourne.Qc:
Use the KDZ Updater with the latest firmware version of your phone...

First, download and install the latest lg driver. (your phone must be unplugged when installing)

Second, download the LG E970 kdz.

Third, "google" and install the kdz updater.

Fourth, put your phone in "Download mode" by pressing both volume keys and plug into usb port (wait 2-3 seconds, your computer will load the driver)

Fifth, open the kdz updater and select "3GQCT" in type...and "CS_Emergency" in phone mode. Then browse & select the kdz you've just downloaded...and press the Launch button. It should take about 8-10 minutes to complete...your phone will reboot around param.94 then you can unplugged it and let it boot normally.

Finally, make a "factory reset" to erase all previous data and plug your phone to wall charger to gave him some fresh blood.

Give us some feedback & good luck :good:
[LG Optimus G (International)] Rockguy40:
Try to get in donwload mode pushing together volume+ and volume- and then plug in the usb cable (to your pc) do not release the buttons until you see the download mode logo on the screen. The phone has to be off before doing the procedure if it wont turn off , push the power button for something like 15 sec, should go off that way

Good luck and in the event that you can't go in download mode anymore , take it to assistance. It's the only way.

PLEX is awesome by the way. I use it on all of my other devices and it works perfect(mostly).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Admiral Sir Manley Power:
Long story short, got a few connects at T-Mobile (used to work for them) and was able to have a buddy of mine snag me a test model note III for free! - To use and play with for about a week. All I can say is.... Save your pennies, and it is everything and more than I expected from Samsung. Just wow. The screen is that flexible material that doesn't break or whatever, and looks absolutely stunning. Very sleek little device even though it is bigger in screen size than its predecessor.

I'm gonna work on rooting it while I have it, so by the time the device drops root will be available immediately and we'll already have a system image to play around with. I am buying one of these, for sure.

The model I have is running 4.2.2 which is what it is launching with, but he is sure Samsung is already working on a 4.3 update for it, which will be available shortly after launch.

Best looking mobile device I have ever held, hands down.

Once I root it I will take a look at the CPU info but I can say this, it is not running a snap dragon 600... No way. Too fast for it to be using that processor.
