Hi,

I recently had a power cut (yes, a lights off power cut!) that killed my PC half wat through installing the Cingular English CWS__001 1.34.502.1 09/21/06 ?? 1.16.00.00 32.53.7018.01H 14955.2.3.0 ROM onto my SPV 3100.

Now SPV 3100 will boot to the ROM I was running prior to the upgrade but I can't use the telephone. I'm also not able to rerun the upgrade as it got far enough through the process to upgrade my bootloader to 1.06 - therefor rendering me unable to load another ROM.

Before the crash I was using the Imate ROM as below and M3100 was sim unlocked and running on o2 3G

i-mate English CDL__001 1.20.305.3 07/21/06 1.20.305.104 1.07.03.10 32.41.7010.02H 14955.2.3.0 1.04

Please help.

Thanks

If your device is still working ok as a PDA then hopefully it just screwed up the radio update of your device.

Try reflashing the Radio only

Look Here

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms

Post back with results

Regards

S.K

EDIT: Sorry only works on 1.04 bootloader only. Afraid your gonna have to wait for Pof to come up with a 1.06-1.04 workaround
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wotthefok:
Hi S.K,

Thanks for the info. I have now tried installing the HERM_1.20.31.10_type2_radio_fixed upgrade but unfortunately the radio upgarde crashes also. It all seams to go well, (after using MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe twice) the phone says "Upgrade Radio Stack Please wait" and the progress bar appears on the PC but then after 10 mins I get an ERROR 114: RADIO ROM UPDATE ERROR.

Do you think this might be becuase the last upgarde partly installed bootloader 1.06?

Any other suggestions - I'm desperate to get the hpone on M3100 working again.

Thanks

Hi Pof,

Thanks for the offer, I will sort out the usb software on Monday. Are there specific actions that I should try, obvioosly I will usb monior everthing I do but I want to keep it to the point and not waist yr time trailing through huge log files.

Cheers
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wotthefok:
BTW - I have tried all options of recovery, such as attempting to install the latest radio and trying to install the new rom from an sd card, trying several roms and using imei unlocker - all without any joy.

I think the problem is that I have partially installed radio and bootloader 1.06 so I can't fix the problem.

Thanks again.

@wotthefok:

For me is faster to look at the usb log file, then I exactly know why the upgrade fails, otherwise I have to decode it from your feedback and I can't be really sure. Check the "upgrading problems" page on the wiki, if none of the steps there seems to fix your problem, post USB monitor log please.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wotthefok:
Log Files as requested

Hi,

I have captured information using usb monitor and attached the zipped log files for your attention.

The first is called USB_monitor_log_Herm_120Radio_twice. This log details attempting to install the HERM_1.20.31.10_type2_radio_fixed upgrade, and running it twice - just in case.

The USB_monitor_log_runing_Cingular_1.34.502_11_uprgrade_twice.zip details attempting to install the RUU_HER_Cingular_1.34.502.1_1.16.00.00_wwe_cws_ship upgrade, simply using the standard ROMUpgradeUt.exe method. This generates the expected Vendor ID error.

My primary focus is to install the radio upgare or download my bootloader to 1.04. The PDA part of my m3100 does now freeze occasionally but at least functions whereas the phone is completely dead.

Thanks in advance.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Please attach capture in *ANSI TEXT FORMAT*, the .lgs file you zipped is totally unuseful :(

Edit -> Export and Save as type "ANSI Text files".

Also make sure you export in "COMPLETE" view, see the wiki for more details.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wotthefok:
OK, Spot the novice.... I have now created a txt log file that captures activity of me running the 120 Radio upgarde - but only once this time. I still had to zip the file due to it's size. Hope this is OK.

I'll send the other logs within the next couple of hours. Please let me know if the output I have sent so far is acceptable?

Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
No, it's a "basic" capture, you have to export a "complete" capture:

Start USBMonitor.

File -> New session -> USB Monitor -> Select USB device where your phone is connected -> Check "request view" -> Finish

In the upper part there are two tabs: basic and complete. Click on "Complete".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wotthefok:
Right, Try again (duh!) OK, I've tried to keep the log files names as self-explanitory as possible... USB_monitor_log_Herm_120Radio_run1.zip is the r20 radio upgrade, 1st run and USB_monitor_log_Herm_120Radio_run2.zip the second run - without disconneting or resetting the device.

USB_monitor_log_runing_Cingular_1.34.502_11_uprgrade_ran_twice.zip is the Cingular upgrade run via the ROMUpgradeUt.exe, again run twice without disconneting the device.

Hope I got it right this time.....Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
This time you got the captures right :)

- You're on bootloader 1.06: You don't have 'rtask' command, you won't be able to do any radio upgrade only.

- Your device is not CID unlocked (Security level=FF, unprivileged)

- The bad flash caused the CID area to corrupt (CID: Wait interpreter timeout)

- When flashing a full ROM you get a CID not allow (255) this is because your corrupted CID doesn't match the CID on the ROM.

The radio part is screwed, you could have fixed this if you where in bootloader 1.04 by flashing a full ROM, but as you are in 1.06 you can't because of CID checking. But you're lucky because the OS ROM is intact and you can boot the OS, you should be able to downgrade to bootloader 1.04 from OS and flash a full ROM after, which will hopefully fix your radio.

Just wait until a solution to downgrade bootloader is available (I'm working on it).

Hi,

As I suspected.... Suppose it's not all bad news though - just means that I have to be patient and use my communicator once more. :( Do you know if the guys at IMEI-CHECK have a downgrade solution? Even if it's a pay for option??

I have already got a IMEI-CHECK sim unlock from where I originally got the M3100 unlocked from Orange to work on o2. That said, I have run either unlocker 2 or 3 with the .unl that I know worked I now get

HTC HERMES v3c unlock

Starting communication.........

Checking device..............ERROR

The device you try to unlock is not supported.

Please contact your supplier site.

I'm currently chatting to the guys at IMEI-CHECK re this problem.

Anything else I can do to assist you in anyway??

Cheers
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
They have it (M3100v3cUnlock.exe), but it will not work on your device because your IMEI is corrupted and their unlocker will not be able to read it and to check/compare with the .unl key file.

Hi,

Just a quick update. The guys at MIGsofT LTD have VERY VERY generously said they'll have a look at the problem for me so my phone will be winging it's way to them today.

Thanks for your assistance and helping me be certain of the problem and to better understand the root cause.

Hope this information will prove useful to others.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wotthefok:
Another quick update...

The guys at IMEI-CHECK (MIGsofT LTD) have rectified problems with my handset and managing to reinstall bootloader 1.04 in the process!!

They also turned my phone around in under three days and only charged me the cost of postage! I had previously been a customer of theirs but it was still a very generous and helpful offer and I would certainly pay for the service than have a duff handset - after all £250 + for a paperweight is rather excessive....

If you're experiencing a problem like mine why not get in touch with them and offer them money to have a look at your handset? No Guarantees but it seemed like my last chance, for a while anyway.

Praise to IMEI-CHECK for a brilliant service - they are King of the day !!

This is what I did. I used the G3 TweaksBox and set the flashlight to turn on by pressing and holding the vol up button with the screen off.
[Verizon LG G3] Rippley05:
Sure doesnt. I know the play store has multiple options, but OEM originals are always better. Widgets usually function/look better as well.

Just one of the many "little things" LG has taken away with the g3

I downloaded "Tiny Flashlight + LED" (free in Play store). It allows you to add a nice-looking widget to turn on and off. Very simple, works well. Has very good ratings too.

If you replaced it yourself then I think the screen you received didn't had the glass good glued to the display so its then a bit loose
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
There may be an advanced wifi option to do so, but I haven't looked.

Your objective could be done with Tasker and iptables. But I'm going to make the assumption that if that didn't occur to you already, that you don't use those programs and there is a learning curve to scripting. So, just grab an app to do this e.g. Wifi prioritizer.

Done

.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rnrnrn:
Lack of option - that is correct - there is no option to disable scanning. The only reliably sensible option left to you is to forget your home wifi network before connecting to the drone and then establishing a connection with the drone.

That's pretty much it - of course on rooted device you could write scripts to engage/disengage a specific network - but to be honest I'd call that an overkill.
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
I have a xt1053 bootloader unlocked and rooted with towelroot with Stock Recovery. Can I factory reset safely? Thank you in advance.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
If your bootloader is unlocked, there is no need to use TowelRoot, PIE, or TowelPIE root. Just flash TWRP recovery, and root.

But yes, you can safely factory reset your phone if you have stock recovery already on it.

If you are using TWRP, CWM, or other custom recovery, it is suggeted you boot into the custom recovery to "Wipe" from there, rather than using the phone's menu option for Factory Reset
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
[MENTION=1165307]KidJoe[/MENTION] so regardless of root status it is safe? Phew because if it wasn't I was just going to flash twrp and start flashing away. But I wasn't quite ready to start flashing roms. I just barely got around to unlocking the bootloader
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Because of how TowelRoot and PIE work, yes, its safe. Their changes are lost at power off/on anyway. A factory reset would then clear away any files they might leave on /data or such.

If you were trying to "undo" SlapMyMoto/MotoWpNoMo, then I'd suggest flashing stock rom (with data wipe) in addition to factory reset, then flash TWRP and root.
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
[MENTION=1165307]KidJoe[/MENTION] Before unlocking BL the towelroot would be lost on reboot. Since unlocking the BL root sticks on reboot.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
If that is true, then I would definitely flash the stock SBF for the Android/ROM version on your phone to completely remove it.

I don't know anyone really using Towel or PIE with an unlocked bootloader (write protect disabled), and I don't know enough about what Towel does to say if what is left over might get in the way... so to be safe... re-flash your phone. BUT be careful to use only the rom version already on your phone, and do NOT DOWNGRADE.
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
[MENTION=1165307]KidJoe[/MENTION] that would be this for XT1053 Dev edition correct?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
As long as you have 4.4.3 on your phone now, sure.

GO to App Drawer -> Settings -> About Phone. the SYSTEM VERSION should match the description of the file you download from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/

so if your system version is 212.44.21.ghost.xxxx then that is the right file
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
Yup. So I just put this in the folder where my sdk is right?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
See -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-ReturnToStock.html

Option 3 and Option 5 are the most often recommended. However, in your case, Option 2 might be enough.
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
OK let me run this by you. I'm at work and having my phone in this state of disarray is driving me crazy. If were to do a factory reset right now and something went wrong would I still be able to flash stock img? And worst case scenario I could send my phone to Motorola since my warranty is not voided?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
How is your phone in a state of disarray? Unlocked, running PIE should be fine. Are you experiencing some problem?

If you factory reset and you get into troubles, its not going to brick your phone to the point where you have to send it in for warranty.

If you have mFastboot, the Android SDK/PlatformTools/ADB, and the right drivers on your PC, you could flash just system.img in a matter of minutes. A complete flash of all parts in the SBF zip file (one operation at a time) can be flashed via mfastboot in less than 15 minutes.

If you want to wait until you get home, you can use RSDLite which is a little easier to flash (it does all parts, one at a time) for you. No typing.
[Moto X Q&A] yankeesfan714:
Just in case anyone is on the same boat. All I did was unroot in SuperSU and did a factory reset. No issues.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shahrukhqasim:
1. I didn't try existenz ROM but battery life is same as stock 4.3. It can't be different both are using the same kernel.

2. Go to recovery, factory reset, Install the zip file(of ROM). Install gapps. (and then turn off and flash .205 or .201 kernel if you are running on some other).

3. Your data on internal memory will not be lost. But to be on safe side, keep a backup on PC or SD card and pull it out.

Happy flashing!

Hello - This forum is a great resource; unfortunately the wiki portion isn't quite ready yet...

I've done a forum search on this topic (using the "search" function), but it wasn't very useful. Google was more helpful - I've learned that apparently G3 or G4 has to do with the kind of flash memory used on a HTC Prophet.

How do I tell if my device uses G3 or G4 flash memory?

I just picked up a Dopod 818 Pro last week. It was brand new in the store, but I'm not sure when it was actually produced. The case features the newer, easier to read style Dopod logo (as opposed to the logo that looked like a bunch of circles with some dots above or below).

It seems to have the most basic/early ROM version there is - 1.0.13.21 WWE.

The ExtROM version is: 1.00.13.102. The ROM date is 11/24/05.

From what I'm reading here, I think my device would benefit greatly from a firmware upgrade.

To do that, I need to know - is this a G4 or G3 device? Do I need to CID unlock this device in order to put new firmware on it?

Thanks for your help and input.

-Dan
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] austin.tovey:
Hi Dan, if your SPL ends in .000 you have a G3 chip, if it ends .001 then you have G4. softreset you device to see the IPL and SPL version.

You will need to CID unlock your device before changing you ROM.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] John-Wu:
as i know, you don't have to CID unlock your device. You only have to change the Romupdateulility.exe (extract the downloaded .EXE file with winrar) with this file
