[G Tablet General] Naysses:
The solution I finally tried out: (Take out your sdcard from the tab if you have one in it)

1.Have these two files ready: recovery-stock.img (download the attached recovery-stock.zip and change zip to img), and original gtablet update.zip. I copied this original update.zip file from my gtab and saved in my pc, i think you can also find links in this forum for the original gtablet roms,like this http://xdaforums.com/show...54&postcount=3 (not sure whether these are same as I extracted from my gtab originally, if not working, I can upload my rom for downloading)

*** could you posted your original (stock rom) update.zip? The one above mention is not in zip format. I did a zip format but still not working.

2.Copy recovery-stock.img into the nvflash folder. (i did that)

3.Start the tab by nvflash (I did that)

4.Mount/Activate USB conncetion, and copy the original update.zip into the tablet internal sdcard.

*** the only way I could put the update.zip in the internal sdcard on the tablet was after nvflash the tablet power up, then I plug a usb drive (with update.zip in it) and copy to the internal sdcard... i did not plug the tablet to the computer.

5.(Not sure this step is a must or not). Download cwmod-internal.zip in the line http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245, extract it and copy the folder "recovery" including the command file to the sdcard.

*** I did that the same way above mention from a usb drive.

6.Power off the tab.

7.Power on to make sure you enter APX mode (you will see the black screen, but hear a bing sound)

8.Type in the Dos Command: nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery-stock.img --go

9.Press and hold the Volume + on the Gtablet and press enter on the PC to execute the above line. You will see it starts to installing the original rom..(about 3 minutes)..and then power off autmotically after finishing flashing ! Dont worry.

10.Repeat step 7 and 8, and press enter (do NOT hold volume +!)

11.The tab will start to the TnT like the original one you had, and Magic now: you can turn off and turn on the tab NORMALLY!!

6,7,8,9,10,11 **** I did all but at the end still my tablet only work with nvflash unless I never turned off!!!

that download is corrupt...

I have the same problem, however your solution didn't fix it...Not sure what went wrong but I followed your directions exactly
[G Tablet General] Fencesitter:
I ran across this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010659 which says that the BCT part of the nvflash isn't the same for all the GTablets and that's my experience.

I couldn't get nvflash_gtablet_2010110500.zip (from the dropbox repository of nvflash files) to work, but nvflash_gtablet_46_2010112600.zip worked fine.

The problem was that I couldn't get CM7 installed on my GTablet, but then I hacked the gtablet.cfg file to swap partitions 7 and 8 by merely cutting and pasting the partition 8 (name=OGO stuff) and putting it before the partition 7 (name=BLO stuff) to match the order of the gtablet.cfg in nvflash_gtablet_2010110500.zip.

Now CM7 has installed and seems to be working fine for me.

BTW- I didn't nvflash the CWM recovery since I was trying to minimize the number of things I was messing with. I assume it'll work, but I already had CWM installed on the internal emmc (SDCARD2) so really didn't even need to nvflash it.
[G Tablet General] Citi:
Nope, I have tried both files and neither worked for me
[G Tablet General] H.N.H:
guobug you are a hero

same thing happened to me

and because of you it works!!!:):):)

( followed the steps and used your updat.zip)

BUT I have another problem

when I tried to install CW

it says "Can't open sdcard/recovery.log"

now I dont know what to do

because I want to install another rom

I think there is something corrupted in the device after apx boot loop :(
[G Tablet General] TCstr8:
You are a life saver. Worked like a charm. Have been reading through 50 million threads the last 3 days, and happened to find this one. Absolutely amazing. Thanks.
[G Tablet General] naythiten:
In step 8 I don't know where to type the code in, which Dos command, the dos command window which nvflash step opened( and I didn't press enter to close that window), or I have to open a new one( or make a new .bat file with the code).

I do it and cann't see it install the original rom( "You will see it starts to installing the original rom..(about 3 minutes)..and then power off autmotically after finishing flashingtes" as you wrote in step 9)

So I still cann't fix my problem.

Please help me!
[G Tablet General] BrandonJay21:
Do I manually open the Dos Command, or should this open on it's own... I'm opening Command Prompt, and pasting what you're saying to use. I'm getting

"nvflash is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

Obviously I'm doing something wrong. ;)
[G Tablet General] tenet420:
That error means the command 'nvflash' is not in the path for the windows command line.
[G Tablet General] wowaddict71:
Where do you type the DOS command at? Thanks.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
This is the first time ive seen this; I was running cm7 and i read a thread about the new prl update. I got out the old trusty myn 2.2 nand so I can update my prl and now my phone is mad at me. The nand was perfect and i successfully update but now im trying to nand my myn 2.2 again and it wont. Let me explain; i used an old myn nand and once i got in i deleted the myn nand so i can update a few things/apps then create another myn nandroid but my phone wont let me. In recovery when i try to backup the norm, it just attempts and all i see is dots for about 30 mins. Normally making nands takes less than 5 min but i let it run almost 30 just to see and it just repeats the dots over and over. Ive never seen this before i dont know whats going on? I create a crap load of nandroids and this never happened. For the record im running Amon Ra 2.2.1(has never been as issue) and im trying to back up system-boot-wimax-android secure-etc. Has anyone ever exp this before im freaking out man lol. Ive tried 4 times and that sucker just goes and goes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Personally, I haven't. Just to make sure, you have ample space on your sdcard? Have you also tried doing a battery pull, then reboot back into recovery and trying it again?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
yeah i have a 16gb class 4 with 10 gb left space isnt the issue. I tried battery pull and restarted it 4 times. Im just trying to create another nand of the same myn rom only thing changed was i updated the prl. Its weird dude.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
ohh yeah and when i played you on xbl did you have your flag as your playercard? :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
That's weird....try creating a backup, but add in an extra element, perhaps, like android secure if it wasn't in your original. Also I don't think I did, as I don't play black ops much. xD
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirkyd3rk:
Cool bro thanks for you help i went ahead and hit the thankx button for your fast responses. I figured it out, for some odd reason i never had issues with amon ra 2.2.1 creating nands; i just upgraded to amon ra 2.3 and the nand created in 3 mins. I cant explain this what so ever. :confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Anytime and thank you, I was just about to say upgrade to 2.3 and should have no problems. But now its a thing of the past. :)

Also, despite what you may here, you can rename the backups, just no spaces. Periods, underscores, and hyphens are fair game though. :).

So before i said my phone had trouble with Odin, but now it works up to factoryfs.rfs and then stops and the screen just changes to a random color, navy blue, yellow, light green, green, blue.

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!?!?!?!?!?:'(
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazednconfused:
You might want to try and redownload the file again. This happened to me once and I guess it was a bad download. What are you trying to Odin from and to?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sevenvt:
I had this same problem on my Captivate, not going to even pretend I know what was going on, but after trying 5 or 6 times it finally worked all the way through. As you say, odin gets to flashing factoryfs and quits real early or halfway through and gives you a random solid color screen.. Eventually it just went though.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobthemarley:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangelok:
My friend gave me an unlocked phone with a semi-working touchscreen, a non-working microphone and a wobbly USB port that I was thinking of sending in for warranty.

Unfortunately, as stated before it is unlocked. I looked at both nv_data.bin and /dev/block/bml3 but neither of these seem to hold a Network Control Key, just FFFFFFF.

How can I lock it so I can send it in for warranty?

Can I just change the apparent NCK to some arbitrary hex combination?

Worst comes to worst, I could just send it in the way it is and hope for the best..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
i dont think it would make a difference if you sent the phone for repair unlocked.

correct me if im wrong but i dont think unlocking the network lock voids warranty, i think its more down the lines of rooting, customs roms, taking the phone apart ect...

my phone came brand spanking new from vodafone unlocked, but with vodafone bloatware on it :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangelok:
I would like to believe that but:

http://www.wpcentral.com/samsung-carrier-unlock-your-windows-phone-void-your-warranty

However, whether they would notice or not is an entirely different story.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
Thats a different device all together tho... How would they know it came 'carrier locked'

like i said mine came direct from vodafone 'unlocked' so if i sent mine for repair they couldnt say no to me.

and that link isnt direct from samsung, for all we know it could be a rumour, i honestly dont think it voids and im sure im not the only one who thinks that.

Like said earlier, Rooting, Customs ROMs ect...... that does void warranty.

Samsung DONT lock phones. Its the providers that lock them to keep you on their network.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
A carrier can unlock your phone if and when they want so its not a warranty issue .

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mangelok:
Hmm okay, maybe I'll believe you guys :P. I'll send it out today. We'll continue the discussion if it comes back saying that my warranty is now void lol - let's hope for the best.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Any warranty reject would be due to non standard firmware or non network supplied firmware .

My phone came unlocked from the network as many do .

[Wildfire General] pyroblazer:
ok im not a expert on this rooting ****... bt i got my motherboard replaced.. and therefore got 2.2 so started messing around with my phone... and stumbled across many things.. one of them was super 1 click

i think i got a temproot using the app called super 1 click.... i use the shell root option under it... and then went to cmd... and when i typed adb shell i got a '#' sign and not a '$' sign... now that has to mean something...

plz if anyone can help further...
[Wildfire General] nhnt11:
temp root was already achieved by someone earlier using psneuter (or however u spell it). This isnt really a breakthrough since there's still no way to flash a recovery.
[Wildfire General] pyroblazer:
Well... in that case I'm sry.. I wasn't aware bout this... bt jus my curiosity.. is there a way to flash a custom Rom 4m adb or shell without.. using recovery.. or is there a way to sign clockwork.img in such a way that we could install it using adb??? I mean I tried replacing the current boot image.. bt gave me the error of system read only.. so its obviously not possible to replace it.. bt what if we could make our phone belive that the recovery img that we are installing is actually of an official ruu???.. it might work.... again I don't have much experience in rooting except using unrevoked...
[Wildfire General] ramdroid77:
this has been said soooo many times.....

with 2.2 you can still soft root, and you can even downgrade to 2.1

but there's always the new HBOOT and so you can not flash Unrevoked

sorry but with 2.2 you are simply lost
[Wildfire General] nhnt11:
What you're saying needs NAND unlock (S-off) which defeats the point of this, since if we had it there would be no problem in the first place.

sure you can say that we can try to make our phone "believe", but how? that's like the center of the problem, if you've done any research. we can't modify the HBOOT without messing up HTC's signature, which means the HBOOT would no longer be accepted to be flashed. what else CAN we modify? this is not end user stuff at all, hence the need for advanced exploits like rageagainstthecage.

It would appear that even on the website (which shows At&T blocked apps) that the sideloading wonder machine is gone.

Dang! wish I had got the sideloading machine.
[Atrix 4G General] Athailias:
isnt it still available at android central? Those are the guys who wrote it, I thought...
[Atrix 4G General] Techcruncher:
if at was at androidcentral then you would have to sideload it, completely defeating the purpose.
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Why don't you just put the .apk on your phone and install it?
[Atrix 4G General] Techcruncher:
that's sideloading. Anything other than a direct market download is sideloading, and blocked by At&T
[Atrix 4G General] Clienterror:
Yea...that's what I'm saying. Enable side loading it takes like 30 seconds. It's more of a hassle to use wonder machine.
[Atrix 4G General] iceman4357:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/and...40770-ac-sideload-wonder-machine-windows.html

They moved it to only be available on their forum. You have to create a username/password, but the links then become available for download.
[Atrix 4G General] Techcruncher:
But I can't Sideload due to At&T so how can I download it from their website. That's sideloading?

I'm confused....
[Atrix 4G General] iceman4357:
lol....The Side load wondermachine stays on your computer. You download an .APK file oyu want, plug the phone in and it will side load it to your phone for you. You do not place the APK on the phone at all.

There is also a video on how to use the program:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzs_1DeSgWI&feature=player_embedded

Quote from the website:

"Installation:

Unzip the SWM folder to a conveinent place on your Windows computer. The program, and all files inside the SWM folder need to stay together.

You will need to install the USB driver for your model of Android device. Information about this can be had from your carrier, or from your device manufacturer.

Usage:

Ensure that USB debugging is enabled on your Android device. For most devices, this can be found in menu>settings>applications>development

Plug your Android device into a high speed USB port on your computer.

Start the application, and browse to the apk file you would like to install by clicking the "Choose a file" button.

Once you have chosen the apk to install, the "Go" button will be enabled. Click it, and you'll see the command window which prompts you as it installs the file. "
[Atrix 4G General] Vigneshd:
Root the phone. It's completely safe. If you follow DG's instructions on the thread it's pretty much idiot proof too. And then sideloading will be enabled!

edit: a bunch of other things will be enabled too. and he also has an unroot script there for you.
[Atrix 4G General] nsaia:
Yeah, I don't really get this. Download SuperOneClick. You can root your phone and enable sideloading all at once. If you ever want to go back SuperOneClick will also unroot your phone as well. There's no danger doing it this way.
[Atrix 4G General] rjayflo:
SuperOneClick isn't the best way to root and enable your phone. There is an issue with Busybox. Designergears recommends using aroot to root and enable sideloading. If you used SuperOneClick to root...simply unroot it.
[Atrix 4G General] Techcruncher:
I'm afraid I don't know enough about software to use superoneclick and such.
[Atrix 4G General] crnkoj:
Hey, i think the best way for you is to do it like it says in this thread:

except if you have a bell atrix, i think than youll have to wait a bit so the devs make it for it (im not sure if its a problem tho)
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
use aroot. I rooted with super one click and also clicked enable outside apps but it didn't work. I then used aroot and everything worked fine.
[Atrix 4G General] iceman4357:
You didnt try the Sideload wonder machine? Check out all the links and instructions I posted. It is really easy, especailly if you dont trust yourself enough to root the phone.
[Atrix 4G General] colin725:
Seriously, he posts that the SWM is down but I don't think he even knows what the SWM is.

And for everyone telling him to root, transferring files with SWM is so much easier that rooting just for side loading is kind of a waste.
[Atrix 4G General] bumoftheday31:
You can also sideload via adb without root.
[Atrix 4G General] gasibigo:

[Atrix 4G General] V DidDy 210:

Hello,

weird question, i can see a folder in Astro that has wallpapers, but I can't see the wallpapers when looking at the same folder in Gallery.

In fact, i can ONLY see 1 file in that specific folder when in Gallery.

If I go to Astro, I can see all hundred files...

I tried to set wallpaper (i have launcher pro plus) and it gives me the option of Astro or the Gallery. When I try Astro, and I see the wallpaper, it doesn't change the wallpaper. it's the same one i already have. When I choose gallery, i can only see that 1 file....

could this be because I disconnected it before the computer was finished ejecting it? How do I fix this?
