Report to HAKIM RAHMAN

Greetings.

I followed rigorously -- as far as i could understand them -- your instructions:

obtained the so-called hard-reset, reached the light gray monitor and the msg

about sending to restore factory settings...

But then it says: press END to quit -- which local, what place, where is any button or label depicting END? Nowhere. NONE whatsoever...Zilch.

Your point 3. declares: «Press on your device».

I'm sorry for my dumbness but 'press' what? where?

=> Once the gray monitor, with its obnoxious message about sending to restoration freezed there, and i feared it grew accustomed to it, i waited for

a while, and pressed like a mental-retarded in all the buttons and commands-alike protuberances of the device and, since i got no response from that juggling and much less any action concerning the file "TRINIMG.nbh" i had previously placed in newly formated duly inserted sdisk, i gave it some seconds more & then empaled the stylus in the bottom of the creature.

Then it ressuscitated, displaying the Vodafone logo-splash and entering the

green wallpaper of Windows "push to bla, bla".

After a rapid checking i realized that except for some programmes icons greyed out and paralized, nothing more had change, nothing, nothing.

This is a "basket case". W'ont you agree?:confused:

Thanks for your attention anyway, with my kind regards,

HN
[P3600 Software Upgrading] xarabas:
It means to power on your device -> press on ;)
[P3600 Software Upgrading] N'Rique:
Thanks XARABAS

But if it means press power on, the bluish printed msg states press END to

restore factory defaults or QUIT - where and/or how does one quit from such a frightening situation, i.e.: the milky wallpaper bearing that infinitive stupid msg?

2. Further, unfortunately i was right to be so fearfull:

After the hard reset, it rebooted as if nothing happened with the small light

consequences i described (some freezed programmes), but later on i realized

a much worse side-effect: the device does not recognize any memory card:

and i tried several different -- it continues to declare that NONE is installed!

I'm beginning to heavily repent having dared to to perform such HIGHLY risky

operation...

What can i do, now? Trust the device to the garbage tin or is there any

simple & effective

, last rite i could be able to use and convince the cheesy device to accept the fact that there are accessories such as scards?? :(

Thanks for the eventual possible patience.

Regards,

HN
[P3600 Software Upgrading] xarabas:
Which version of active sync do you have atm, latest?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] N'Rique:
Let me add just another bit of info

Hi Xarabas,

To spice my text above, just consider this:

I followed an advise of someone of this here site:

CHANGE the SIM card and enter the IMEI #. (Could not enter the whole

number since it does not accept the last 2 digits!). But better much better

after having previously with siuccess perform the SSPL TRIN.exe i think it

had unlock the CID and the other item i hate to recall the name, complete

with progress column of small squares adding up and announcing EXIT in

the end; after this, when of changing the vodafone sim card i had for another card i use, the stupid htc declared the new sim BLOCKED and added

a message saying: «Since you've tried 13 times, now you have to wait

until the latency time be exceeded».

This would gain a championship of stupidity! I never tried not even once!!!

Active Sync 4.5 for me is an already lost bet: it does not connect.:mad:

Regards,

HN
[P3600 Software Upgrading] xarabas:
Ah, crap, only 4.5 works on XP, at least that's what MS says.

Have you considered upgrading to Win7 and trying with 6.1 active sync, works for me.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Hacker@lho:
Try formating your SD card in a computer with fat16 or fat 32 filesystem.

And try not using SDHC cards, some cards it's required some tweaks to make them work...
[P3600 Software Upgrading] N'Rique:
To my friends Xarabas and Hackerc@rvalho (?)

1. Windows 7? Oh good Lord that woud be the end! The HORROR! (As Marlon

Brando declared in Apocalypse Now, did you see it?).

That is the opera-prima of encoded perversity, juggling with the user and

obliging him to follow sundry prefetches. Thanks but no thanks.

It took me several years of study to get around all the 'niceties' of XP -- in

compairison with Windows 2000 Pro. To tweak and escape to Xenocodes, to

DRMs, MVTs and the sort.

Have you ever think about the 'evolution' of Windows Media Player and all

the restrictions it went on entailing?! No, thank you -- as soon as Linux with

qemu, reaches full devellopment, i'll wave good bye to WinBlows XP.:D

Regards to you, for now.

2. Greetings also to you Hacker...

I've done all the steps you advise. As you know Fat16 reduces overall capacity of a formated SCard, but what the heck: i used Hirens 12 utils and

formated my 8 Gb, which now bears only 6 Gb and something in capacity.

Luckily enough after having soft-resetted some 12 if not 13 times in a row,

my stupid device finnaly decided to acknowledge it, but then, as a token of its erratic humor, returned to an old bipolar psychic disease of his: it allowed me to install coreplayer -- but nothing more (even .jar chess games were forbidden! _ Midlet Failure it announces. As for anyother application i tryed to install, it shows the logo wheeling around and around forever until it crashes and freezes.

I am so sick and tired of this idiotic performances and so i flag my defeat here

and today (better said: to-night) enough time lost in improductive and frustrating activitties.

I plan to acquire an ANDROID thing, which they tell me is much more open and stable -- Would you agree?

Thanks for your attention in this idiotic quest of mine.

And best regards.:p

I haven't tested any Android device to it's limits, but I've played with some devices for short times and Android is for sure a good OS. With a lot of applications and potentiality...

I have my trinity since november 2006 and I'll be with my trinity as far as it keeps working good and without problems, but when I'll bough a new device it will be a Android one, for sure.

If it was right now, Htc Desire Z it's the dream... :D

Maybe your trinity came faulty, and you had bad luck...
[7 Mozart General] ZeeShh:
I couldn't find how to change the default names of the picutres. the default names are very long and does not contain the date etc. as well. e.g.

" Photo_5A32606C-6E6D-526D-6736-DC03H631208Sa.jpg "

thanks and cheers...
[7 Mozart General] hassler:
guess not

since it use kinda the same code in sequence like in Digital Camera

I think it doesnt have much sense for that

but if you are, maybe you can sync to Zune and change the name, and then sync back? :p
[7 Mozart General] ZeeShh:
well, let's wait for this option in the upcoming update. chaning in Zune and copying back will be a lenghty process after all. cheers...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marshy73:
Rooted and have S-Off and H-Off now.

Flashed new Kernel.

So if I do a Nandroid Backup now.

Does the backup retain my S-Off and H-Off?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
It doesn't backup those two partitions at all. So as long as you don't do anything to them after the nandroid they will remain.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marshy73:
Thanks for the response.

What I really meant was that niw I've got S-off and H-boot done. If I'd to do a nandroid backup and explore sone other things (e.g upgrade to current OTA rom).

If I'd recover from this nandroid backup, would my recovered ROM srill have S-off and H-boot?

I'm thinking that I'd still be able to recover root and S-off capabilities but perhaps not H-boot.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkolev:
Why don't you make a Radio S-OFF/Super CID also? And flash the update using the guide that allows you to keep root, Eng S-OFF, and H-boot capabilities? That's exactly what I did, and it works fine.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marshy73:
Hi

So I need super CID?

I'm still new at this stuff so will go dig up in it. If you could direct me to a specific thread it'll be great! Thanks.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yoshi_523:
^^ sure thing buddy first this guide for root(super user access), h-boot eng s-off. Don't worry about the top section on custom ROMS. Just start from where it says Method 1 and go to the end of the page:

http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/desire_hd_installing_roms

then this guide for Radio s-off

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857537

Make absolutely sure you have radio s-off before loading the 1.72xxx update/ROM or any custom ROMs based on 1.72xxx build or otherwise you will not be able to get radio s-off and will also loose full root access. To test s-off do this. Power off device. Hold down volume down and tap power button once to enter bootloader. Once it loads up it should say eng s-off at the top. Then go to system info (or something like that) using the volume up & down to change up or down and tap the power button to select. Under system info it will say CID:1111111 (not sure how many 1's but you get the idea. If it says anything different such as next to CID you do not have radio s-off. For example CID-VODAP021 is s-on stock Vodafone Australia. CID:HTC__001 is stock unbranded with s-on.

http://gorumors.com/samsung-galaxy-s-rooting-guide-i9000/2754159

When you have rooted..you need to flash 2e recovery...then download rom manager and install clockwork mod...Important !!!...before you flash 2e make sure your 3 button combo works...if not flash the fix..all found in the dev forums..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4700pedersen:
Thanks for thereply. But i have tried your rooting method. The One Click for windows does not work.

When the phone oes into recovery after pressing the root 2.2 button, it says verification failed

Installation aborted

I think that is because of the e3 recovery

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazdaz:
Hi there

My IP adress keeps on changing on my Android (Cyanogen 6.1.1) Desire and so I keep on hopping between different IP addresses. The IP adress of the only other system on my network has not changed.

I would prefer not to use a static address but to understand and fix the cause of this. I have a laptop which does'nt hop around so frequently so

I think it must be related to a phone/Android setting but so far i've been unable to find out where this is configured.

My link speed is 54 Mbps so I have a good connection to my wireless router.

How can I fix this ? Perhaps I just need to install an extra application.

Elixir displays the lease in binary for some reason, 10101000110000000 (86400 base 10). 86400 seconds is a lease time of 1 day.

And this is confirmed on the OS itself.

# getprop dhcp.eth0.leasetime
86400

dhcpcd 4.0.15

dhcpdcd options if they are the same on Android : http://roy.marples.name/cgi-bin/man-cgi?dhcpcd

-A, --noarp

Don't request or claim the address by ARP. This also disables

IPv4LL.

-B, --nobackground

Don't run in the background when we acquire a lease. This is

mainly useful for running under the control of another process,

such as a debugger or a network manager.

-K, --nolink

Don't receive link messages for carrier status. You should only

have to use this with buggy device drivers or running dhcpcd

through a network manager.

-L, --noipv4ll

Don't use IPv4LL (aka APIPA, aka Bonjour, aka ZeroConf).

[Streak 5 General] datalik:
Hello everyone,

I have been using an HD2 for some time with android. The phone was working great but i wanted to buy an android phone as i was spending a lot of time on it downloading different builds. After looking around i decided to go for the Dell Streak. I loved the big screen and how different it is for all the other phones around.

I live in the UK so bought it from o2. The phone came with android 1.6 with an optional upgrade to 2.2. As soon as i started, i downloaded the update but with great sadness i realised that on the 2.2 the phone looses the task bar on the top with the standard android and also the biggest let one down is the big screen is not anything special now. I did not like that you could see the different screen on the sides of your home screen.

Having searched i have managed to downgrade to 2.1 and the phone looks the way i want it again. Unfortunately there seem to be lots of bugs with this version of the streak so i am wondering if there is a way i can have 2.2 running looking like the 2.1 version or a fix for the 2.1.

Thanks in advance for any advice
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
neither can be done, froyo changed the frameworks too much to make porting the (frankly crap) status bar over, im actually happy dell saw sense and removed it as i dispised the 1.6/2.1 status bar with a passion
[Streak 5 General] datalik:
Thanks!

Not the reply i was hoping for but at least i know that it cant be done.

If i upgrade to 2.2 is there a way of streaching the screen in order to avoid overlappping?
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
yes there is. You have to use a different home screen launcher. The two popular ones are adw.launcher and launcher pro. Both are highly customizable and will do what you want.

I currently use adw.launcher and love it.
[Streak 5 General] datalik:
Wicked i shall download it and have a play around with it.

Thanks for the tips guys!
[Streak 5 General] Spectre51:
I really miss the 1.6 task bar as well. Since getting froyo I have moved to launcher pro for my default launcher. Much better that stage.

Sent from my Dell Streak
[Streak 5 General] coyon:
i very much concur, the 1.6 layout and keyboard is what sold me.

now if they had 1.6 runnin flash i would be keeping it
[Galaxy Tab General] QueenAmy:
Hello - I urgently need help with my Samsung Galaxy Tab.

I flashed a wrong PIT/PDA & what happened is:

- my Galaxy Tab does not reboot at all

- the flashlight in the back suddenly switched ON automatically

No matter how long I press the Power Button, the device switches off just for one second, and then the flashlight switches ON again - but no reboot.

I cannot get into download mode / when I try to use commands with Odin, it only says: error: device not found.

Odin does show my device ([COM:4]), it appears as: Added // only the download mode does not work!

When I tried to start SuperOneClick, trying to Unroot, it is stuck with: "Waiting for device"

Weirdly, though, my netbook does install the drivers automatically when I plug it in. Which means, my netbook can "read" the device.

Does anyone here know how I could make the extreme Hard Reset, without having to reboot?

--------------------------

If you think this post should rather go to the Developers section, please feel free to move it // I am thankful for any help
[Galaxy Tab General] bdl1969:
Have you tried connecting to it with ADB to see if you can reach it at this level (apart from with SuperOneClick)? Try installing the Droid Explorer application on your Windows PC and see if it will recognise your Tab. If it will you should be able to initiate a reset from the Droid Explorer UI. If it won't I would suggest that you are hard bricked and it will have to visit Samsung. Good luck!
[Galaxy Tab General] QueenAmy:
Hello,

thank you for your advice.

adb does not detect my device ..

and, unfortunately, neither does Droid Explorer :(

Just find it so strange that ODIN does ..

but like you said -

I am also afraid, that this is a "hard brick" & I will go see the retailer tomorrow.

Thank you, though, for offering help.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
If Odin sees it, its not bricked. What image is on the LCD when Odin sees it, or is it blank?
[Galaxy Tab General] bdl1969:
I guess the problem here is that even if Odin sees the USB device connected, if the Tab won't go into download mode then it's as good as bricked. With the SGS you can construct a USB jig with a 301k resistor between pins 4 and 5 of the micro USB to push the device into download mode if it won't respond any other way. I wonder if a similar thing would work for the Tab... Sounds like a challenge for someone who has two Tabs and doesn't mind experimenting a bit with one of them.
[Galaxy Tab General] rotohammer:
lol, I'll get my cheap Chinese Tab cables this week and hack one up to test.

My guess is that Odin will only see the Tab when it is in download mode. Id try flashing it in that state and find out for sure. It sure cant hurt.
[Galaxy Tab General] studio54:
You went to your retailer?I have exactly the same problem!!
[Galaxy Tab General] QueenAmy:
First of all - THANK YOU for having started this discussion.

Yes, I went to the retailer. My Galaxy Tab is with Samsung Technical Support now; will keep you posted.

To answer some earlier questions, yes ODIN did recognize my Tab; but the screen on the Tab remained totally black. Only this strange "flash" light on the back kept glowing.

rotohammer, if you really get to test what you mentioned before, I'd be interested to hear what happened - but, ;) personally I would not recommend it, unless you are sure you want to risk completely ruining your dear Tab.
[Galaxy Tab General] QueenAmy:
I did ... and less than 2 weeks later ..

Update:

13-Jan-2011

Today noon I got a call from my retailer :) my Galaxy Tab was ready to be picked up & I was really lucky: my retailer said the repair would normally cost EUR 650.- :eek:

.. as I had damaged the whole mainboard ..

but as the Tab was less than 1 month old, they were so kind to do it w/in my warranty - so I did not have to pay for it.

:) I'm very relieved, as you can imagine.

Got my Galaxy Tab back with a brand-new mainboard, everything is working well &

:) I sure learned my lesson.

I will not flash the Galaxy Tab again.

Only because Galaxy Tab and Galaxy i9000 are both on Froyo, it does NOT mean that you can flash the same software!

I wanted to apply the 3 button combo fix on my Galaxy Tab but apparently it does not work!
[Galaxy Tab General] DistortedWisdom:
Bricked mine as well, but mine is a weird case

I bring up the weirdest case of bricking so far, i was on an official Arabic (P1000JPJK2)Firmware, and i noticed a new Arabic release on SamsungFirmware.com (P1000JPJM3) i downloaded it and downloaded the .pit file, Started Odin v1.7 and unchecked repartition, selected the PDA and the pit and started the processes, odin finished and Reseted the device and give me the green light with the word PASS, however, the my p1000 decided to reboot into download mode automatically, so i rebooted the device manually and got stock in the Samsung Logo and keeps looping. so i decided to go back to my previous Rom but it will always fail and i would have to reboot my tab and it will show the good ol' Phon-PC logos, however, odin would see it and would flash anything i want. i tried flashing various versions of rom's but they would all fail... i tried repartition checked and unchecked and nothing worked, so lastly i decided to flash the .pit file alone and that worked and got me back to where i was stuck in the Samsung logo loop and no ROM would be flashed through Odin BUT the (P1000JPJM3) but it still will not boot! and funny enough i took it to sammy's repair shop and they told me to come pick it up in a few hours but they told me that they failed to repair it and they would need to keep it till tomorrow, but they guy was not that optimistic about getting it repaired and to make things worse i couldn't get unrooted so there is a good chance that there will be no warranty... does this mean that i bricked it for good? please help me.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeast101st:
hi there mate, Im no expert but I had the same problem.im no expert and you may have to wait for expert advice,....but......

I reformatted the memory card with MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 5.2 it reformatted the card slowly, you can search the forums for" format card"and download a proper formatting programme.

I also had problems with the actual download once, i kept having the no image error come up over and over, so i re downloaded the file and it worked ,....also when they say take the battery out and wait,...do it for 10 secs.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draken Korin:
hm, not sure if I'm 100% with you, but lets try:

the output you describe (SPL-0.78.0000) clearly shows that you are still on the latest stock spl, which you either got by factory default or through one of your later updates through SEUS (depending on how old your phone is)

this (stock spl) automatically prevents flashing of customizes roms (like the mentioned Energy rom), all you can flash with that are stock roms

there is the hard-spl thread concerning this by olinex which you most probably read and tried

so as I understand it you failed at flashing the hard-spl, then tried to run SEUS which failed as well and now you cannot even start your phone?

after failing at SEUS did you retry to run the SE update utility? it sometimes fails before successfully completing

did you try putting a stock rom on your sd card and flashing this (that would delete personal items and settings not backed up)?

how did you try flashing hard-spl? synching your phone with your pc and launching from there?

Best, DK
