Old thread, I know, but Google might bring you here anyway. To be able to write SD cards and avoid the Lock Errors I first use the interactive DOS utility diskpart to clean it. As in:

C:\Wherever\You\Are> diskpart

DISKPART> list disk

you'll get a listing of the disks attached including the SD with a number associated with each. Determine which number is your SD. It is very important you get that right or you will unceremoniously erase whatever disk you mis-enter. In my case the SD is number 1. Then:

DISKPART> select disk 1

DISKPART> clean

DISKPART> exit

Now the SD is wiped and not lockable. Win32 Disk Imager will write it without a Lock Error.

Now if I can just figure out how to avoid the Lock Error 5 I get when trying to simply read it.

Hi all,

I have dropped and destroyed the screen. Hooking up to the computer I noticed on one occasion that the device showed up when doing a ./adb devices. However since then it hasn't done it. I know that USB Debugging is turned off.

Is there anyway to force it on, say booting it into recovery mode?

I could do with access to the shell before I send it off for repair.

Cheers,

Jodi

Hello,

I just flashed Perception 10.3 and I can do almost everything (make calls, send and receive SMS, data up and down) but I cannot receive calls. When I call from another phone, if I am on the H network, it rings for about half a second, then the screen goes black, sometimes there is a message that pops up but it goes away before I can even read a word, the phone vibes 3 times and then I lose connection until I hang up the phone I'm calling with. On the calling phone I get this message:

"The number or code you have dialed is incorrect, please check the number or code and dial again. (message 7, switch 076)"

When I'm on the 3g network, nothing happens on the Cap, it just goes to voicemail.

Any ideas what I can do to fix it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dupontrocks11:
Did you try a factory reset and then reflashing?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
Flash to stock, Master Clear with Odin or GSM Master Reset with the dialer code, and reflash Perception.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gr8Danes:
And probably not a good idea to restore system data with titanium if thats what you did.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeMarzo:
Yeah thats a problem when reinstalling system data from TiBu on a different system.

ie. 2.1 --> 2.2

When your using TiBu only backup Apps/Data
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stonewallmike:
Thanks for the response!

I did Master Clear and flash back to stock with Odin before flashing Perception, but I also backed up/restored system data with TiBu, it looks like that's where I went wrong. I thought since I was going from a 2.2.1 ROM to a 2.2.1 ROM, it would be alright, and since I didn't know what was considered system data and what was app data, I just went ahead with the whole Maryanne. I guess I'll have to re-flash tomorrow.

Thanks again!

The background i did not make all on my own, first the background was really light green with bad contrast (boring looking) then i got permissions to rework the background and i fixed a few reflections and some contrast and different colours..

Ok i haven't been over at the Vibrant forums since i got the t-mobile tab and i have a question for all, since the Vibrant has the Media Hub i tried to install the app on my tab but it failed, so i went and set up an account to try something. So after the account was setup i rented a movie and i figured since i downloaded it it would be saved on my Vibrant i tried to look all over the phone for the file but can not find it. So my question is, is there a way to transfer movies downloaded Media Hub ifrom the Vibrant to the external sd card so i can the play it on the tab, or is there a way to install Media Hub on the tab?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaywaikim:
I'm one of those unfortunate ones without 3-button combo. So I have been applying the 3-button fix every time I go back to JF6 stock ROM (just learned of a permanent fix, but I've come too far...).

This last time, after I applied ODIN3 1-click download and master clear, I started seeing 2 devices showing up when I tried "adb devices" command. Because there are two devices, my attempt to apply the 3-button fix fails ("error: more than one device and emulator") and I am STUCK as a result. One device name is "offline" and the other is "device" but they both display same numbers (I897xxxxxxx1e), identical.

So my question is...is there some way to "delete" a duplicate device so I can push adb commands? Is my only option to do "USB JiG" method?

Thanks in advance for suggestions!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
I'm currently stuck in a boot loop, with no way to access my rom or recovery. I can only access bootloader. The boot loop began happening soon (around 2hrs) after flashing MIUI; The rom was running, and out of nowhere it just began cycling. Any ideas on how I can get out of this boot loop?

Edit: I'm no longer in a boot loop after installing a different full system PC36IMG.zip. Instead after the initial splash screen my evo goes black and vibrates 5 times, then my green LED starts flashing. It stays this way until I remove the battery.

So far I have tried:

Flashing RA's recovery image using fastboot. (The flash was successful)

Using RA's recovery PC36IMG.zip. (The installation was successful)

Using an RUU file renamed to PC36IMG.zip (The installation was successful)

Using a Sprint Lover's file renamed to PC36IMG.zip (The installation was successful)

For all of these the process of installing and flashing went fine. Yet when I would turn on my phone it would just go right back into the boot loop.

*I've been editing this post as I've tried new things, so you don't need to read through the thread to help me.

Anyways I'm at my wits end here, pretty worried, and phoneless, so any help would be amazing.

Have you tried ADB from bootlaoder or fastboot. May be able to get recovery that way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
I'm trying to do a bit of research, but am a little confused on what adb is. It's part of the android sdk? I can't seem to find it, or know how to launch it. Is there a thread somewhere that covers it? I'll keep doing my research, thanks for the tip.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luist4498:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
I really appreciate you trying to help out. I'm trying to figure it out right now, but how do i get to the terminal? Theres a couple of different guides I see, but none seem to be while in bootloader. The thread you showed me seems to be mostly commands. Sorry for the hassle, I really appreciate you helping me. I wouldn't be quite so pestering if I wasn't without a phone, haha.

ahhh, also, if adb is an exe that opens up in cmd.exe (which i'm starting to think), its not included in my sdk.

edit 2: haha, ok i just found out i have to install adb through sdk, from a little txt file. sorry. i'll get back to ya soon!

Jeez sounds like you have a better grasp on this than me already! LMAO
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
haha, well i'm not too sure. Have you gotten you're evo to be found? Right now while using adb, I'm just told "device not found." All my drivers should be properly installed because I had to install them when I used unrevoked. So I choose fastboot on my evo, and then it shows up on my computer as "android 1.0" under devices and printers... but adb doesn't find it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luist4498:
I was told to get rid of my drivers and re install the recommended ones before starting. It recognized mine right away. YouTube also has nice how to videos on ADB.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
Is there any way you can point me to the recommended drivers? I think that second link you gave me is the same as the first also.

Edit: Every single guide I see on the internet about adb, says use debug mode within the actual rom. However I'm obviously not in a rom, i'm in bootloader, and for the life of me can't get adb to find my phone.

Edit2: Ok, so maybe I can only use fastboot. Right now when trying fastboot it just says "waiting for device," even if it didn't say that, what would i need to do to get on the road to recovery?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
So I'm starting to get scared. At first I figured this was something I could fix... and now I'm not positive it is. I've used fastboot from terminal, trying to flash recovery and it says "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" I'm starting to get desperate, does anyone have any ideas?

I flashed a CM7 nightly, from CM, about 2 weeks ago. Yesterday, still using the same nightly (build 1 or something) my phone seemingly out of nowhere rebooted - I wasn't even using it at the time. When it went back into CM7 it acted as if I had never linked a google account to my phone. The first thing that came up was the android google apps screen. Anyways, I decided I wouldn't stick with CM7 until at least an RC was out, so I wiped data, cache, and davlik and flashed MIUI. I used it for about two hours, didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and once again seemingly out of nowhere it rebooted... except when it did it went into a cycle and never reached MIUI, and wouldn't go into recovery, I could only access bootloader.

Anyways, I'll tell you what bootloader says my phone versions are, but I do believe the info all changed this morning when I flashed the ruu file.

In addition to booting an RUU file as PCIMG36 I've also tried a Sprint Lover's image as PCIMG36. Even though both installed properly, my phone still staid in the boot cycle afterwards for both.

I've been suggested, and have seen other users suggest on other threads, to try adb commands, but I don't know if i can access adb while the phone is in bootloader. I have however accessed fastboot, are there any commands that might help me? If not, can I use adb while in bootloader? Thanks.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
So it asked you to update, you said yes, then reboot, and it looped? When you go back to the bootloader, you can decline the update and not reboot, then try recovery.

Do a battery pull, then go back into recovery, decline the update and do not reboot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jander6442:
followed the exact instuctions and as soon as I want to go to recovery it loops. Sorry for the problematic flashing it should go all as well I really think there some sort of hardware issue.

Hiccups are normal, it sometimes happens when flashing, and it takes an extra second or two to push the data.
