yes,it's really common to see phones should be sold in other countries here.

it's cheaper than the local kind. but with no service for brocken.

i send it to a fix shop,they said the only way is to change the mainboard.

i think it is not cheap for me.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mr_ace_sk:
one more bricked P500 :mad:

it's happened during a flashing the official LG firmware V10o to phone, using LGMobile Support Tool. phone was in yellow emerrgency mode, flashed about 70% , then it stopped with comunication probem

phone was fully charged.

now the phone is totaly dead - not power on, no emergency mode no usb connection :confused:

hey..man got a same problem...try emergency mode(back+vol up+power) and then run KDZ...works for me...hope same for u..!!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] morx:
anyone with some feedback of LG's service? Did they repair if through waranty?

Can they see what we've done to brick the phone?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] daganb:
USA user of a P509 here, same issue, phone was bricked by a update / reflash that went wrong. I spoke with LG / got a RMA # / and shipped it out last Monday to the Texas repair center(sunday now). Phone is still under warranty and I did ship a copy of my amazon proof of sale with it.

Yesterday (saturday) I had a package from LG at my door, however was just a tease with the battery I shipped with the phone. They must test them separate and ship separate.

I'm really anxious over it, while this was not a expensive phone, the ability to brick this during a update really needs to be fixed. I know bulletproof android phones (hello moto droid) when it comes to updates / rom flashes. All it requires is a JTAG of the firmware.

What do you guys think the odds are that they will read the JTAG / ROM informaion first over just flashing the damn thing and sending it on its way back? I had it rooted.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] morx:
wtf? They sent you the battery back? hahaha

imagine having the SIM and SD cards inside... they'll get mad xD

I sent my phone to LG just a few hours ago, crossing fingers...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] daganb:
Updating:

Sent a few weeks ago to LG's repair shop in USA / Texas, after a bad ROM flash (phone was bricked). Battery was received last week and I got the phone back a day ago. Sent in a black LG Optimus T and received a silver / platinum (?) LG Optimus T.

Thankful to LG, upset that they couldn't just JTAG my old phone and save themselves a buck. But I am satisfied.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] MAXT3R88:
So, basically whenever someone bricks completely this P500, no matter what he did to it (custom recovery, custom ROM, root etc etc), LG should repair it for free?

I hope so, because this is my case and I brought thephone last 25th of january...

Any experiences about that?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] morx:
I've posted before about my problem bricking the phone....

Well... they replaced it free of charge [warranty].

My last firmware was the official one and got it bricked while trying to flash on a different version [Greek Unbranded]

No mods, nothing custom.

They replaced the main PCB [new IMEI etc etc]. In order to replace the main PCB means that the bricked phone cannot be used in any way, so they probably dont know and they cant figure out what's wrong with the software... so in your case you were running on custom staff... your phone is bricked, PCB went off. They cant read nothing from it anymore so they wont know what did you do.

They will replace it for sure!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] akitos:
i got same problem here. my phone wont turn on. i just used void echo n not it wont turn on. wont boot to recovery nor emergency, it booted up once today but after a few seconds it turn off and it wont boot up again, nor recovery or emergency. it started out this morning. open up and after a while lines in the screen then black out. should i bring this to lg shop? please advice.

Hi all,

I have a problem with my optimus one. Suddenly the speaker went dead. I cannot hear anything when I receive a call or try to listen music...

I don't get any sound at all.

Do you have any suggestions for me? Thanks.

RE: The_ERROR

Can I repair my LG O1? 'Cause i flashed a new custom recovery (AmonRA) and after the first reboot, my phone does not boot at all. No Emergency Mode, no Recovery Mode and no charging. But can I fix my phone,'cause i flashed a new recovery and it maybe failed, i don't know, ClockWorkMod said after the flashing 'Install from sd card complete'.

I will test it, and I hope it works.

And sorry for my bad english :o
[Optimus One, P500, V General] kdpandian:
Thanks to LG Support

I bricked my Phone (LG Optimus one), None of the above method of powering on the phone worked. The phone was completely Dead.

I had to go to LG Service Center , they replaced my phone's PCB (Motherboard ?) for INR 1200/- (As my phone was out of warranty)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] thachtunganh:
Even you still have warranty, they still take your money... LG don't repair your phone if your phone was broken because of you.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Umang96:
I also killed my o1 once, then I told them that it was done while doing official gb update and they did it for free ;)

[Windows Mobile] master92:
hi every body

can some one please tell me which sys packages and ext packages are safe to remove for rom cooking for leo.thanks
[Windows Mobile] sharkie405:
THIS

is Da_G's post on most SYS packages and what they do. You decide from there what you don't want or do want.

HERE

is a thread from MobileUnderground.info on HTC Packages and what they do. Post 2 in this thread also has the same info. from the first Da_G post that I linked. Again, it's up to you what you want to leave in or out. Obviously the majority is needed to have a functional ROM.

As far as what I personally remove from my SYS packages, they are:

AdobeFlash (I use a separate Adobe package)

AdobeFlash_LANG_0409

AdobeFlashCodecs

AUTOUPDATE

Autoupdate_Lang_0409

bronze (all the bronze files are necessary if you want to cook in Titanium. I don't use Titanium, so I don't need them.)

BronzeNonEA

CHome (all the CHome files are necessary if you want to cook in Titanium. I don't use Titanium, so I don't need them.)

CHome_Lang_0409

Entertainment

Entertainment_Lang_0409

FWUPDATE

Fwupdate_Lang_0409

IRDA (My device does not have Infared. If yours does, you probably need this.)

IRDA_Lang_0409

Office (I cook Office in via a separate package.)

Office_Lang_0409

OneNote (OneNote is part of my separate Office package)

OneNote_lang_0409

SampleMusic

SIM_TKit (I have a CDMA device and so I never use the SIM card. Not sure if this is needed if you use a SIM card.)

Skybox

Skybox_Lang_0409

Skymarket

Skymarket_Lang_0409

VoIP

VoIPOS

WelcomeCenter

WelcomeCenter_Lang_0409

WMMoneyWidget

WMWeatherWidget

WMWidgets

WMWidgets_LANG_0409

I also remove all the Windows Themes (Classic Blue, VeraWang Red, etc...) I remove all the PNGs for those themes and I remove all the .tsks for them as well.

Obviously to do this you must have your own theme ready to go or it won't be good.

HERE

's a site that list all the SYS packages and then list whether or not they are removable. That site is linked in

THIS

thread which is a must read for any ROM chef. It's filled with tons and tons of info. and by reading that thread and the links contained in it, most all your questions will be answered.
[Windows Mobile] pkoper:
You can safely remove the entire EXT.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Laynee1:
So, here is my question :

Ive downloaded alot of app from market and im usting them with pleasure .. But i want to change build now.. Is there any way i can get those aplications in .apk format , so i can install them in my next build ( so i dont have to download them from market again)

Thanks :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Macelangelo77:
Yes, you can. Just download Titanium Backup to backup all user apps (including settings) and restore them on your new build. By default Titanium Backup will compress them, however there is a setting to have them stored uncompressed which means that the apps themselves will be saved as apk's and the settings will be tarred/zipped (allthough theres no need to not compress them, if you use TB for restore). If you want to restore your apps, just backup your Titanium Backup folder from your SD-card, install the new build, install Titanium Backup from Market, start it once, exit, copy the entire folder back to your SD-card. Next time you open Titanium Backup it will show your backup and you can select individual or all apps to restore.

Titanium Backup:

Sincerely,

Mac

sneaky workaround, works mostly is to "swipe" or "slide" your finger across a button to highlight and you can see the text.

Fancy Widget appears to be much more customizable and probably drains the battery a lot less than this other app. Hope you enjoy the Pro version ;)

I restored to a previous rom with the old market and had the same issue yet my daughter's Magic and my old Hero both work fine. I tested the Hero with my Google ID.

just delete the vending apk flash any rom it dosen't have to be stock re-flash stock rom ,or any rom.I wouldn't back up any system apps.I mean if you flash stock again they will be there.

[Android Apps and Games] warphantom:
I had the same compatibility error first, but this afternoon I checked market again and all is working again as usual. I see my apps, search works and that without reflashing and/or removing the vending.apk first.

So folks please check market again first before getting yourself in a lot of work. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] beat.kitano:
Try those steps before to work a lot:

1) Forced Arrest the android market and market updater from the menu Manage Applications.

2) Clear the data chace.

3) Open the android market.

Now the android market on my device works fine again. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] nysoprano:
I'm using the samsung galaxy tab. By force arrest, do you mean force close? That's the only option I see in manage applications. After doing that and clearing the cache, I still have the same problem.
[Android Apps and Games] D-FUSE:
you have stock t-mobile or sprint or att or what.You need to go to the galaxy tab thread get a rom.Delete the vending.apk and flash the rom.I don't anything about the tab cuz I don't own one,I probably never will.

Don't know if this will work on the tab
[Android Apps and Games] nysoprano:
I have a tmobile tab... I'm trying to find a fix other than flashing another rom, I'm happy with the stock. Is this the only solution everyone is doing?
[Android Apps and Games] beat.kitano:
Try those steps:

1) Forced Arrest the android market and market updater from the menu Manage Applications.

2) Clear the data chace.

Do you have cleared the cache of market? Anyway try it more times.
[Android Apps and Games] Master™:
Yeah, that didn't work. (Samsung Vibrant)
[Android Apps and Games] ckelvin87:
Hi, sadly this didn't work for me either, I have a brand new stock JI6 vibrant and when i first got it, it would download for a few minutes from the market then stay stuck at starting download from then on, i tried everything from clearing the cache/data, google talk, etc etc... i also tried factory resetting and when i did that it would work again for a few minutes then back to the same old problem, I tried flashing it to JFD and same thing happened as factory reset. So finally I tried nero v5 custom rom. I was able to flash that rom, and upon usage I was able to download apps, non stop. The problem though was that the apps i could only download were the weird test apps that you guys see too. I tried this solution and flashed back to nero v5, same problem. Flashed back to JFD and now JFD too has the same weird market were all the testing apps are. I'm really frustrated. Hope someone knows another solution. I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!!
[Android Apps and Games] xnoctis93:
yup i'm still having the same problem. only seeing weird test apps...hope we can figure this out
[Android Apps and Games] beat.kitano:

Since yesterday i have the same issue with the market v. 2.2.7.

I guess it will fix itself. Try sometimes to close the market, clear the cache and restart it.
[Android Apps and Games] tanoxxx:
I have the same problem...

With any solution i have not fix the problem..there is still again..

How we can fix this problem?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] ckelvin87:
The problem stayed even after i hard reset my vibrant and flashed from nero v5 to stock. It's weird how the problem that's causing the market problems carry over to the stock even after flashing(at least that's my theory). I also tried updating the market using ng vending 2.2.11 apk, i was able to update but again the bug is still there. I'll be trying some other custom roms tomorrow and hope that that fixes the market. Will post the results when I'm done.

Hopefully someone else can fix theirs and post their solution here.
[Android Apps and Games] gdinf:
Here is how I fixed mine...

Got the same problem and it started when I tryed to use Galaxy_S Unlock.

This change my IMEI and my Market app start to failed with the error described here.

I try several "solutions" that didn't worked out.

I restore the IMEI with Galaxy_S Unlock from the backup. It restore the IMEI successfully by the Market wasn't working even after restart the phone.

I went to Manage Applications and Uninstall Updates from the Market application hopping that the Market will update it self but it didnt...

So then I had 2 problems... the old version of the market and the incompatibility message...

finally I went into Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, and I click over the Running tab...

This show me some process...

Basically I select all those process that I thought could be related to the Market or that could contain some kind of locking information... like:

Download Manager

Google Services Framework

Market and probably some others...

in each one I press Clear Data.

Then I try the Market app... and it give me another error... probably related with a service that stop running properly cause I clear the data...

I restarted the phone...

Voila! the market install the latest version and everything came back to normal...

Hope it helps to someone!

I'm running Galaxy S GT-I9000 with Android 2.2 installed from Kies.

I wanted to unlock the phone just to not to put the pin number on every restart... I guess I will keep putting it :D
[Android Apps and Games] roccos_van:
Yup, I unlocked my phone with Galaxy S unlocker several weeks ago and just realized I have a bad IMEI since i just checked it now. Same problem with the Market here since yesterday with the wierd test apps.

BTW - I did as the OP said, even went ODIN all the way back to stock no root, and nothing, still the same problem.
