Bricked Wing(Files to Unbrick)

Ok I don't have the files but I thought it would be a good thread for all the "Wing" users. So if you have the Unbricking files and maybe a guide either post it here and maybe they will sticky it or make your own thread. if you think it's a good Idea then vote....Oh and I know I call no shots here but I figured this was a best way to let people know about this"gulp" I hope I don't get flamed for this oh btw I myself am not requesting help *Yet* But I read a few posts....I mean alot of posts about Bricking and help me do this or help me unbrick that and I also think that itje and alot of other members would Enjoy not being harassed to help some random person out. But these are just my thoughts

bricking your phone is too easy to fix. I personally did not know what i was doing when i tried a different rom, and bricked my phone but it was a fool proof way to unbrick it.. all you have to do if put your phone in bootleger mode and run the original rom from your computer... unbricking for dummies is all it is

I understand that lol it is easier then the psp but I mean for a person that doesn't know anything about this they would ask "Where do I go to Get that file?" This is a site I found on this board and sorry I don't remember who posted it if not I would give credit CLICK HERE FOR OFFICIAL RUU UPGRADES and if your on vista this can help...Oh btw I also don't know who posted it or else I would give credit IF YOU ARE USING VISTA CHECK HERE FOR HELP
also THANKS to whoever posted those links and I am just posting them here to help

With all due respect, the unbricking process is explained in the "Newbs guide to modding" thread stickied to this forum, and there is a link provided to the stock RUU.
Cheers!

Oops Double Post Please Delete

Yes and that is where I looked for my information but I can imagine that if somebody bricks their phone they would panic and wouldn't think straight so they wouldn't look into modding it more hence they wouldn't search "Newbs guide to modding" they would search "Brick","Unbrick" but since it is mentioned in here now *Thanks to you* they will be redirected to that thread and find their answer so YAY for all ,,,,No more harrasment to senior members and no more bricked phones to ....Noobs

Custom ROM Screenshots + Install help

Got it solved, thank you guys

Dude, Uh, Back up one page and read the threads that begin with [ROM]... Not trying to be a smart ass. But seriously homie..

Just read the stickys and how-to guides and this should answer a lot if your questions. In the threads about specific roms is where you'll find screenshots. But a lot of the benefits of specific roms have nothing to do with cosmetics, so you won't get a good idea about each rom without trying them and comparing.
Fyi posting questions that have been asked and answered without searching to find your answer first is likely to get you the middle finger from some members and make people not want to help you, so just keep that in mind. Enjoy your rooted eris when it happens.

Update android NAND rom without losing data?

Hey,
Was wondering if it was possible to upgrade a NAND rom without loosing all my apps, contacts, images etc. Reason being that I have a very early build which has some missing features such as GPS and I really need them. I have been using this build for a while now an have added new contacts, installed apps and have a lot of data on it generally. Is there any way that I can update to a new build whilst keeping my data?
Thanks in advance

in this topic a video show u how can u upgrade u're rom with ClockWorkMode.

It amazes me that there are people in these forums who are smart enough to to install android rom on there phone, but they still can't figure out where to post a question. There is a forum for questions and there is a forum android development, and yet they still pick the development forum for questions. Why is this concept so hard to understand. Haven't you noticed that there isn't any other questions being asked in this forum except yours?

Its because they know more people view the nand development forum than the Q&A forum so they have more chance of getting an answer to their question.
I noticed a while ago a mod from another xda forum posting a question in the nand dev forum for that very same reason.
Simple solution, don't answer people who start question threads in dev forums until they are moved to the proper place.
Regards.

Titanium Backup
The name is Titanium Backup

So you don't want people to answer your question in the nand dev forums until it is moved to Q&A forums. Then why didn't you just post in the Q & A forum in the first place. You saw another person posting in the nand dev forum, so now you feel like you should do the same. So now other people will see your question and then will post there own questions in the nand dev forum and the trend will continue.The last thing everyone wants is the nand dev forums flooded with questions. By the way, a quick search in the forums, you could have found an answer to your original question.

If you bothered to read my reply i was agreeing with the person i quoted "YOU" and was only stating the reason some people are posting questions in the Dev forum. Example,,,, the mod who had posted a question in the Nand Dev forum for that very reason.
I was also saying people should not answer questions put in the dev forums until it has been moved to the proper place. They will then have to wait until it has been moved which could be hours if the mods are not about or busy. Getting a quick reply in the dev forum only encourages others to do the same.
If you can find any question i have started in a Dev form you can have my HD2 for free.
Idiot.

I seem to have started a row. I appoligise for starting this thread where I did. I hope you two can still be friends! Thanks for the help will use the clockwork mod as soon as I can!

You can't use CWM unless the ROM is CMW friendly.
You need Titanium Backup - free in the market. (The paid version is WELL worth it though!)

When I click that link I get the following. Has the thread been deleted or am I not permitted access because of my post count? It says you cannot post with less than 10 posts, but it doesn't say you cannot view. Am I doing something wrong?
knickfan5745, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

[A][Tut] How to recover from ICS leak upgrade.

KJY2010 posted a nice step by step tutorial along with ALL files necessary to recover from the leaked ICS upgrade if anyone is stuck with no answers.
Thread is in A500 & 501 Tutorial forums at androidtabletgeeks.com
Sorry can't link as a n00b to these forums.

Thank you sir.
There are alot of people in the Dev forum stuck with no one giving clear answers, and being a n00b here, I cannot post in that forum!

Hello,
I have tried the above tutorial a few times and am getting stuck at the step you enter the CPUID. Upon entering my ID it comes back and states CPU ID is bad format. I am not including the 0x and just using my serial number. Any ideas? Thank you.

If you wouldn't have closed your original account KJY2010 you wouldn't be noob here.
ATGadmin aka KJY2010 .
Offcorse you gonna deny this but I know better , already got confirmation on that .
Are you gonna link every post you do to AndroidTabletGeeks ?
I've been on your personal ignore list a while I think , not answering e-mail and skype.
Thanks for that , still got to figure out why but hé if that makes you happy !
Have a good one !

I appreciate that you and MD are trying to get your site off the ground, but why not share the information here and include the link to the OP. The picture guide is probably very useful to people and would benefit everyone to have it in both locations.
This looks like you are trying to poach people away. I know that may not be your intent, but the motives could appear suspect to some.
Also, there is a guide, without pictures, over in the developer section - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1516012

Not our intent at all.
If you check the "time stamps" on both posts (the one I posted at ATG, as well as the one you posted) you'll see that the post at ATG (not the post I made here) was done hours before the post at XDA.
Having just been through the nightmare involved with having to revert from the ICS leak, finding my way back to a rooted ROM, and finding mostly hostile remarks directed at those that couldn't figure it out for themselves over in the DEV forum, we came up with a very clear, concise, and explicit TUT on how to get back to a rooted ROM, complete with ALL files needed to do so over at ATG.
As far as the "appearance of being suspect" goes, that's one of the reasons we started our own "community", and not just a mere forum.
While we literally just launched the site mere days ago, and don't have many members as of yet, those that have joined have already made remarks attesting to this fact. Most if not all of our members are members of several forums, some including XDA. No reason to "poach", as we're just giving people alternatives to finding information about things that we all share the same passion for..."All things Android Tablet Related".
Just wanted to clear up why, and when this post was made.

Exactly, since we already have on XDA those informations http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1516012 , this thread is now closed.

rooting insrtuctions

i.have been going through the forum looking for the rooting instructions for the leo. if someone could point me in the right directions I would appreciate it.

See the two guides in my sig about the HD2. First read the guide to the terms then read the Android installation guide. You can't 'root' an HD2. Please search before posting next time.

Thank you for your response.
Would it be possible to help people without calling them stupid. And as I stated I did search and nowhere did I find it can't be rooted. Now that I know that and have the thread, again thank you.

Where did I call you stupid? If you'd searched well, you'd have easily found that all HD2 Android ROMs come rooted as stock, and that you can't 'root' Windows Mobile. I refuse to believe that you did a proper search before posting, because literally 10 seconds of SEARCHING gave me this thread, in which it is quite clearly stated in the fifth post that all Android ROMs come pre-rooted. Now I consider you to be stupid for saying that I originally called you stupid when I didn't call you stupid.

You signature
I searched for "rooting" I also looked for titles with Rooting in the stickies and didn't see it. I found plenty of roms but not the typical rooting thread in the stickies. Now I know why. It doesn't need rooting.
Something more helpful would be a stating the reason you can't find "rooting" instructions is it is not typical of these devices and doesn't require it. Please see this thread (link) for instructions on installing roms. Enjoy.
That's how decent understanding adult humans communicate. Not what is in your signature.

If you couldn't find that guide (either through searching via forum search or even browsing the NAND Dev stickies) then you are indeed an idiot, which is why I put it in my sig. If you really want, I'll remove it. This phone comes with WinMo, how did you expect to root it when it doesn't have Android on it? I can't root a sat nav or a toaster, how can I root a WinMo phone when it doesn't have Android? It's fairly simple logic. Finally, if you can't handle the word 'stupid' you really shouldn't be on the internet.

Leave it. It will warn others to what they are dealing with.
