Hmmm. You guys do realise that real carbon fibre would block ALL signals right? Pure carbon is a conductor. Using a carbon fibre shell will be like locking your galaxy s in a cookie can.

Really? Hmm. Bit weird. I know that metal and other conductors act as radiation shields. May be it's getting signals through the screen instead.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BillTheCat:
Hope someone can help. I've been running the Energy ROMs for a while, and decided to give Android a whack. Installed MAGLDR and the Desire ROM but want to restore the original OEM ROM, but can't seem to get it done.

I've formatted FAT32, extracted the .nbh from the archive, copied it over and renamed it leoimg.nbh (should it be upper case, or, leo_img.nbh?), and press the reset & volume down button. I get the HSPL screen, the gray screen flashes for only a second and disappears, then the HSPL screen shows again.

I am using the 16Gig SD card. Is it possible that's the problem? I've read a lot of things in a lot of threads, but can't seem to figure it out.

What gives? Any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
almost certainly.

most 16, many 8 and 4 gig cards wont work
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A.Calamita:
What Sam said.

Use a < 8Gb card. Single partition. FAT32.

I don't think the file name is case sensative but could be wrong.

Thanks,

Al
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russpattaya:

[Captivate General] hollywould:
Hey so I just decided to flash JI6 on my Captivate, and I noticed that my device wasn't showing any items on my SD Card. It sees my sd card, but doesn't see all the stuff thats on it. I've tried to unmount, reinstalling it, and restarting the device, but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me? This is really annoying. I did make sure all my stuff was still on it by plugging it into my computer. I did a search for this before posting, and couldn't find anything about this happening. Thanks for any help.
[Captivate General] GAMacky:
I'm not an expert at flashing. But I seems to recall that you have to remove your SD card and SIM card before flashing ROM. Hopefully you removed the SD card before flashing...
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Do you see both internal and external sd card? If you installed one of the i9000 based ROMs that have no SD card, you may only be seing your internal storage and not the external SD card at all.

2.2 changes the path to where the external SD card is stored. It is not the same as 2.1. I don't remember exactly, but 2.2 puts it under the /mnt directory and i don't think External is under internal anymore.

2.1 is /sdcard/sd for external

2.2 is /mnt/internal_sd (i think)
[Captivate General] diablo009:
I think it should be ok. I have flashed ROMs like more than like 30 times so far, and I always had my external SD card sitting in there.

2.2 --> /sdcard/external_sd

2.2.1 --> /sdcard/external_sd

Some 9000 based ROMs have trouble with external sd. There are SD card fixes posted in those ROM threads itself. Apply them through CWM recovery console and you should be good.

I have attached one such sd card fix for 2.2.1 from "Doc's ROM JPY V6.1.3 CE" thread. If u r using a 2.2.1 based ROM, this could work for you.
[Captivate General] hollywould:
Yes I did make sure to remove the SD Card before Flashing.

Thank you very much. That fixed it. Thanks so much.

According to this:

http://www.segger2.com/index.php?page=Thread&postID=1786&highlight=s5pc100#post1786

The proper Software for S8500 is mandatory and much more important as Hardware.

Few of the JTAG Masters are able to make own JTAG Hardware for less then 20 Euro.

But the Software... :eek:

If Bootloader alive, then higher chance to have connection with any JTAG Hardware and CPU only... memory is something different...

But if Bootloader is erased, then CPU Bootcycle... and it is nearly impossible to halt CPU without proper Software to have access to memory... RAM or NAND.

Next week I can maybe answer, if I had success with my J-Link... now I must wait for my second S8500 compatible JTAG.

Why do you want to make full internal memory dumps, while these seems to be ones you're looking:

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] Rebellos:
It isn't "Memory reading" for sure, not directly at least.

Probably oneNAND reading isn't possible by some clicks and you need driver for oneNAND in script. oneNAND is controlled by modifying special registers under 0xB000_0000 address space. If you want oneNAND dumps you have to find driver for that or do it through FOTA using BL3 function Flash_Read_Data and rebell_memdump from our SVN repo.

But under DCC Red/Write Tab... and need to set few things... so not only press 1 Button.

Less then 30 minutes for 512 MB Reading...

As I don't need Full 512 MB write, only 4 MB at Start...

to prevent erase full 512 MB :D:o

At the moment I try to be sure, that my dumped 512 MB are 100 % correct.

No read Errors or something...

I have 2 times dumped... after several actions... it seems "static area" from 0-0xCA00000...

So first 211 MB are without write access... (need to be checked/confirmed)

I'll try to find what is stored in first 211 MB...

This could help as I've read not every dump work with every S8500/S8530.

Minimum differences I know is MP 1.000 or MP 2.000 for S8500...

S8530 I saw only MP 0.600...

2.

Length 0x40000

3.

JTAG dumps from S8500... meanwhile I've found 3 different + mine. :D

S8530 only 1... :( This seems not valid as some mandatory NV items are missing...

4.

It seems JTAG dumps contain not only OneNAND content... at end of file additional JTAG data added. For instance RIFF Box call them "Main + Spare combined into single file"

Btw...

I'm NOT using USB cable for Power on...

Maybe you have not powered on...

Try to press often ON on S8530 or hold ON Key and try to connect...

Maybe its timing problem... maybe you have to be faster, as maybe Bootcycle... invisible... as NO Display output...

Again. I use only battery in S8500 and power on via Key... NO USB cable attached to my S8500.

I have Segger and Qualcomm experience, but I never tried to connect to QC JTAG PINs on S85000 nor tried my Segger JTAG.

Last 2 suggestions...

- use short cables/wires to JTAG

like here on first Pic:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13301174&postcount=6

Not wires + cable... maybe your connection are too long or wires crap...

- my Siemens handsets few were protect against JTAG use. So I need to remove some elements from PCB...

No idea if Samsung protect some Revisions against easy JTAG use... Remember. I've removed only label on S8500 and your Testpoints was "sealed", maybe more protection... :confused:

If it doesn't work properly, but BL3 works - try to flash the rest of files using BL3 download mode and see what happens. If I'm not wrong, BML does have some spare place there to correct bad blocks but it's possible JTAG doesn't support it, and BL3 does. :P
