I would ask for help in irc maybe ping Shelnutt or autoprime. I was going to suggest running freegee again to see what happens, bit am not sure if that would be risky. Wish I had a better answer.

Phone should not be connected to your computer until your have the program running and the volume buttons pressed. So does your phone say download mode on screen ? You said your computer recognize it, does the program recognize it ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jdaub89:
Nothing comes on the screen when I try to go into download mode just a blank screen like it's off no backlight or anything. The program does show something when the phone is connected but still didn't work.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] optimusv45:
How are you trying to enter download mode ? Be specific
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jdaub89:
While the phone is on I turn it off and then while it's completely off I hold both volume keys and press the power button. When I do that nothing comes up not even the boot screen.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] adfurgerson:
What is it listed as in device manager of PC?

Also can you tell us which version of lgnpst you are using?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] optimusv45:
the way to enter download mode and use LGNPST is hold both volume keys and plug your phone in your computer. LGNPST needs to be running prior to connecting your phone to your computer.

Hi I have a Sony Xperia S SGPT-121US the "multi port" broke and now the tablet will no longer charge. I have stuff from work I really need. Is there any place I can purchase a replacement? (tried ebay,digi key already) Or can I charge thebattery any other way like Wireless or anything?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.:fingers-crossed:
[Sony Tablet S] potna:
is your port bad or is it the cable? i have the sgpt-1211 and i cant hardly find anything about it and $70 for some bs charger is crazy. good luck
[Sony Tablet S] ty949:
Unfortunately it's the port I just paid $40 for a brand new charger (so mad) I can see a corner of the dock got broke off. I'm bidding on a parts tablet on ebay right now fingers crossed. Otherwise it's for parts on ebay and try to get back some money?:confused:
[Sony Tablet S] ty949:
Different problem now

So I decided to open up the tablet and charge the battery by connecting a usb cable with one side stripped and soldered the positive and negative to the proper leads on the battery. So Now I get a red light flashing 10 times on the side where the power button and volume buttons are. Before I had nothing at all. Any Suggestions?:confused:
[Sony Tablet S] Cat McGowan:
I would suggest you send it to Sony for repair, but I don't want to spoil all the fun you are having. :D
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
What voltage is the battery??? I have used a stripped USB cable many times to revive a dead phone battery. 5V => 3.72V is safe enough... I know the battery from the STS is a 9Vish (from memory) prehaps you could wire off the end of your tablet charger for the extra voltage?? SOUNDS LIKE FUN :D
[Sony Tablet S] potna:
so what did you end up doing? trash, won your ebay auction? sell yours??? send to sony? i'd like to know since parts for these things are going to be hard to source. also what model do you have?

3,How to use the extrom,with which tools

Hello!,

After trying changing the display resolution with lcd density or similar apps, my XTS doesn't want to boot anymore. After sony's logo, i get black screen. Many times, i got this error while trying changing values and parameters, but with full wipe, it always worked as new... not now.

I also rooted my dev. installing also the new updates, using AIO...

I'm on stock kernel / recovery

ANDROID SYSTEM RECOVERY 3a

rev.44, BL:0X00000009, EC: 0.21, master

my dev is SGPT121US/S without 3g 4.1.1 R1, i did not installed the R2 last update.. I've downloaded many firmware, but the installation aborted everytime when trying to verificate the update, so:

install /sdcard

Findind update package...

Desklunvr update package...

Verifying update package...

Installation aborted.

do you have any ideas??? my idea of tablet is quite different from a wedge for dancing tables...so i must (if possible) unbrick my dev!
[Sony Tablet S] naka307:
The same thing happened to me...

The screen goes black after the SONY logo at boot.

I did an android reset but did not fix the problem.

I realized that the touch screen is still working because although the screen is black,

when I have the volume at max and touch different areas I hear the click sound telling me that

the touch screen is responding. I found out that I can unlock the screen and etc.

BUT the screen is black so there is nothing I can do...
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Try any update and the use adb pull /tmp/recovery.log and post the recovery.log here. See my stickied FAQ for mor info

This is what I got.
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
Ok so firstly we fail due to trying to install what is currently install. You should be able to install when/if there is a new release... :)

After failing it switches to the other partition which fails due to messed up vendor files. Third and Forth are the same as it does not switch back.

All in all you will need to wait for a new update and that should install on the first try. Other than that off to Sony it is :(

[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
You can try using 'setprop' to change the value within that DPI property since you have ADB, now we just need to know the original DPI for the XTS so you can fix this.
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
the original resolution is 1280 x 800, but i don't know if adb is working in recovery mode. I've to test it.
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
Found it, it is 161 PPI.

EDIT: Can you ADB Pull the build.prop and give it to me?

ADB should work on the black screen since the system is still running.
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
I hope so...now i'm trying to connect via adb/recovery my XTS, but after ADB DEVICES command, it says that there's not dev connected.

I'm on W8, and i've read that there were some troubles using adb and w8, so now i don't know where is the problem, maybe on my pc, or XTS.

I'm going to test it on W7.

i'll let you know ASAP.

thanks in advance.
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
The Windows 8 problem is just to do with installing the driver, not detection, I have Windows 8 Pro and it works fine.

---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

Ok so to fix it you must do the following in the CMD:

adb shell

su

adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system

setprop ro.sf.lcd_density=160

chmod 644 /system/build.prop

reboot
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
Nada, nothing to do... adb can't recognize my XTS. I'm sure that adb drivers work correctly. this is what i've done:

1 - check the drivers and adb shell

2 - boot my dev. in recovery mode

3 - connect usb cable from tablet to my pc

4 - run cmd and adb prompting adb devices

5 - result : List of devices attached (EMPTY)

so i can't edit any kind of files and posting any logs.
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
Recovery mode does not help, you only need to be on the system where the black screen is.

Recovery mode needs a key to unlock so you can use the actual ADB interface fully.

Try an other USB port if you can.
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
Adb shell works with my XperiaZ, so i know that the usb port that i'm using is working. Now i'll reboot my XTS, trying to connect adb whit the black screen on the display, but i think this won't work as well. I thought that adb worked also in recovery mode.
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
It does work in recovery but you need to unlock the recovery first.

It should work on the black screen since the OS is running.
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
ok so i think that it is not a display fault, but a boot fault. I'd like to know why i can't install any original zip through recovery. i was on 4.1.1 r1 rooted with condi's script, (before factory reset), and my dev is US region.

i've downloaded all the zip from sony's site, and get the same error while rec. validates the package.DAMN

install /sdcard

Findind update package...

Desklunvr update package...

Verifying update package...

Installation aborted.

Under black screen i can't ear any sound, for example while touching the screen or increase/decrease volume with volume bottom, so i'm quite sure that the dev is not booted correctly.
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
It is just the build.prop, you see the System UI and other elements cannot adjust to that DPI what so ever so it messes up and shows up all black, the build.prop is like a list full of properties which is wiped and loaded to the system at every boot and applications/services such as System UI and the settings reads the whole thing during boot time so all you should need to do is just do all those commands.

Please follow it on runtime to see if it works.
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
can you tell me how?

can you also explain me why with factory reset, the build.prop is not gone back to default values?
[Sony Tablet S] CoolApps:
Factory reset does not change anything within the system partition.
[Sony Tablet S] nickfee:
i think today i'll send my dev to sony's support center...hoping there'll be a solution

i've finished all the ideas...

thanks for your help.

Please tell me not to flip out... lol. So here's the history. I rooted my phone, installed CWM w/ loki images, and next step was to get LMT pie control working.

wParam : 13, lParam = 47

Page_Error ºÎºÐÀÔ´Ï´Ù

¿©±â´Â Retry ºÎºÐÀÔ´Ï´Ù

After many research in Google and inspiration on XDA, I found some many general suggestion as well as my own root cause.

General suggestion:

Turn off Antivirus

Flash in Windows XP

Check the KDZ file size, for G2 stock rom it should be around 2GB. If you downloaded a 900MB KDZ file you know you're 1G short.

Reinstall LG USB Driver, LG Flash Tool etc

Change the LG device in Device manager to COM port 41 or COM port 4 before connecting to PC.

My own root cause:

Mine is Korean version F320L. I previously rooted and flashed to a custom ROM which is based in D802 using CWM. When I try to flash back to Stock rom using LG Flash Tool, I got the "TYPE_WPARAM_UPGRADE_ERROR". In the bootloader screen on my phone it shows rooted. Since I tried all of the F320L/F320K/F320S stock rom and they all failed, I know it is not an corrupt file issue.

So I wonder if I need to unroot my phone in order to get past the error. I started by flashing to another rom which is based on the F320K rom using CWM. Since the F320L rom comes without root, I go back to the bootloader screen and check the status on the phone. Although it still shows rooted, this time the LG Flash Tool can get past the error message and finished flashing the F320K rom.

Conclusion:

The existing Rom installed on the phone can affect LG Flash Tool which seems to compare the version of the Rom you try to flash against the version of the Rom currently installed. I was lucky that I got CWM to flash back to the right type of rom to get the job done.

I do think that the LG Flash Tool really sucks as compared to Samsung Odin (I was a Samsung guy previously owning 3 Galaxy S series phone) which won't even ask what crack you're running on your phone. And from my limited experience flashing Sony Xperia phones it was just a smooth ride without error. LG really need to open up their policy on rooting if they ever want to catch up to their local rival Samsung.
[G2 General] @lbert:
I have the same issue you had. I have a 320L phone and I tried the Korean Custom Rom which was based on the Mexican D805 model. It flashed fine but was an old software image and I decided to go back to Korean Stock. It's no taking any Korean images, in fact I had to recover this through fastboot using the Mexican laf.img file just to get Download mode back working.

I'll try your method, thanks.
[G2 General] @lbert:
Would you mind sharing a link to the F320K rom you flashed that got you back to normal please?
[G2 General] RA017:
Actually, I think this will work just fine.

this guy had the same problem i am having now. except he was upgrading from 2.3 to ICS. I was on MJ7 and one of my genius stellar friends told me i could odin back to MI1. well i actually did it, so im obviously just as much of a genius as he is. Nonetheless his description of his problem is identical to mine. that said, the solution offered up for him was obviously applicable to the builds he was working with. With knox being present in the MJ7, i believe i may just be screwed. Im stuck on the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again." screen even after I reboot. it just reboots on its own to that screen after i turn it off. any advise? Id like to get it to a reasonable sellable state if possible so i can put any money i get out of it towards the nexus 5. Ive also tried all the Kies suggested troubleshooting multiple times as he did.

"Now the phone shows an error "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."

When i connect the phone via the cabe, to the computer, using Kies, it gives me error saying "Device not responding. To resolve the issue, reboot the device."

This is how I tried to resolve the issue, but with no success..

I have rebooted a number of times without success
