[Q] help on my fascinate!

PLEASE HELP!!!
First, you didn't read and you posted in the wrong forum.
Second, you need to download odin, then flash the modem.bin as the instructions say. Also, do not forget to place the file in pda.
Regarding odin, this phone is a pda not a phone.
I am having this same issue, but I cannot find the correct post about it. Maybe I'm blind? I am really trying the answer

Kudos for at least posting to a related thread.
Find DJ05 modem here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869990
(google "dj05 release")
Also be sure to get a DJ05 kernel (and system like black hole 2+ or super clean 0.7+). I love JT's 11/29 novoodoo. There are more recent choices too (I am currently testing geeknik 12/20, available on rom manager, for instance). Avoid Voodoo kernels unless you fully understand them!
Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, jingle.

4.1.52 to more current version

I am trying to get my phone to update with no luck. I spent about an hour on the phone with Motorola trying to see if they could just push updates to my phone and apparently this is not an option. They say it shows my phone is up to date.
I currently am on 2.2.1 system version 4.1.52 which is not supported on their website to do any kind of updates. I am using a Mac and Motorola has mac compatible stuff on their website. Can anyone please direct me to something as simple as what is on Motorolas website? I would like to get 2.3.
when I go into my phone and check for updates, it says I am already up to date. Has anyone else had this issue? I have searched on here and 2-3 other forums and cannot find a solution to my problem. Motorola said I could send them my phone and they could update it, but I am trying to avoid having to do that.
PS: I am not familiar with this stuff so if you could dumb down your responses I would greatly appreciate it
thats because 4.1.52 isnt an OFFICIAL ota man..
you have to downgrade your device to 1.26 ota to > 1.57 ota to > 1.83 ota to> 4.5.91 Gingerbread.
well that makes sense. It would have been nice if Motorola could have told me that.
Is there an easy way to get 1.26 on my phone with a macbook?
Not that I know of. I could be wrong. But using RSD on a windows PC is super easy to downgrade your device.
I dug around for you, and may be able to help...The previous poster is right, you can't be on 4.1.52 in order to receive updates. You need to flash an official OTA first. On mac, use this guide...I don't have a mac, never used this guide, can't guarantee it...but just read the thread a little bit to know all you need to know
You can go here to select the SBF of your choosing I suppose... or, in the Development Section, maybe read about the Pudding thread, and see if you want to unlock your bootloader or not.
Lemme know if you have any more specific questions...Like I said, I haven't been in your situation and don't know every detail, but I could help you get in the right direction.

cool thank you! I read through that stuff and dont feel comfortable doing it. I gave my atrix to a co-worker. He is going to flash it to 4.1.26 and then hopefully update to gingerbread after that.
I appreciate the help guys

Haha no worries. Are you sure this is a trustworthy co worker?
But yeah, I understand not feeling comfortable...if you read through it all and make sure you know what COULD go wrong, it's all easier than you think. Just for future reference

This is a rooted/etc of a New leak which was originally posted at -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225752
Did a complete wipe/factory reset, nuked dalvik etc and titanium back says it cant get root. Tried installing busybox for the hell of it and it says the same thing. Anyone else getting this? Doing a fresh wipe/install just to check...
Yup same here, su is installed but no root...
Fixed, check first post. Some apps dont care if its in xbin...and yet some do.

Thanks! Also another quick question...getting a force close right after flash for process com.google.android.talk, after each flash I've done. I don't plan on using it to be honest but curious if others are getting it.
Thanks adrynalyne, should posted it a bit earlier as I just clicked YES - CONFIRM WIPE ;P

If google talk does not find a network connection before you unlock your screen, it crashes. This has been the case sense Gtalk with video came about. As long as the network/radios are running before you unlock, there won't be a crash.

I flashed and had no root. Though adb shell worked while the phone was running.
*edit* I see su fix in OP now
So, I'm having a real n00b moment. With the download do I flash it in hboot, or do I do the update from zip from the ROM manager? Also, I have the MR2 radio installed, does that matter? I just don't want to do anything I'm not supposed to.
Thx adrynalyne

Can't update to latest patch

Hi,
I've already make a factory reset via settings but the update still can't install... After a little work, a RED "!" icon appears on android when trying to install it...
I'm on STOCK rom and STOCK recovery... very very strange....
Someone can help me?
Thx!
So, when you typed this thread title in did the posts you saw regarding this exact issue not seem like something you should have read?......
really can't understand... someone else had the same problem? Can't find the other post, sorry.... where is it pls?
edit: founded thx
Hello,
I'm sorry, I don't find this thread. I really searched.
I'm in the same case than asder00.
My Transformer is rooted, B50, European, and actually 9.2.1.11 official build.
The only way to update HoneyComb -> ICS was to use the version posted by MrNago http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514658<br />
Today, I tried to update to 9.2.1.17 build. I received this update, but when my tablet reboot to install it, a triangle appears at approximately 30%. Exactly the same thing than when I wanted to install ICS.
I tried to install official ROM stock ICS of Asus with CWM recovery. Doesn't work (Status 7). No error about the version. I took WW build.
Same with ROM Revolution HD.
But retried with MrNago ROM, It works.
I don't know what to do to recover working updates.
PS : I think to know about which thread you speak.
I have read it. I don't think our problem to asder00 and me (and many others) should be over there. In my case, this impossible installation didn't appear after ICS.
And, those who posted our problem didn't have solution.
PPS : Sorry for my poor english. I'm not a moron. English is not a language I use every day.
Go to this thread and download and flash the file .
Note When you have CWM you cant ota.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551652
Yeah, that's what I've done.
This micro update has worked with this file.
That's right, CWM is installed.
It was not when I tried to upgrade to ICS.
And if this is really source of our problem, I don't know how to remove that.
I have seen a method which match with what I've alreay done (reboot in recovery, install ROM stock... /!\ doesn't worked).
I believe I'm condemned to upgrade with files found over the web.

What did you do to fix this problem (with stock recovery and stock rom)?
I'm having the same issue, red exclamation mark. I never rooted my device.
1. Root
2. Install CWM
3. Flash update through CWM
it's really not that hard.
OK, that's a way. But keep in mind there are customers without knowlegde of rooting and stuff... what about them? The update should work, right?

Then you talk to Asus about it, not here.
Here is a place where people come to find information and learn how to do things.
If you just want a magic one click fix, call Asus.
I was also in a similar situation as you. I went back to stock rom and stock recovery and noticed I wasn't getting the OTA update to 9.2.1.17. Guess what?
I rooted my TF with a root kit found on this website. It literally rooted my TF with a click of a button. It was so easy.
I then installed CWM with an app posted on this website. It was just an APP. All I had to do was run the app and it installed CWM. So frigin easy
Finally, I manually flashed the update through CWM, which was made possible because some nice dude on this website posted a CWM flashable zip for the 9.2.1.17 update.
This entire procedure took less than 30 minutes.

You're totally right about that. I'm just curious what the problem might be. Would be interesting to know.
I'm now going to use the CWM method you suggested.
Same thing.
I would like to know if someone knows why few peoples have this problem, and many others not.
Why, since ICS is came, auto updates doesn't work.
There are solutions, of course. Sometimes we can search 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, more. For some people, it's easier than for others.
And what we all are sure, if we call Asus, they don't tell us how to resolve that. They will tell us to send the tablet to them. It's not what we want.
So, if messages like that irritate you, I think you should drink a herb tea.
Or close your eyes, take a full breath, and read another thread.
Because there will be always messages like that.
I don't tell that to provoke you. I would like that you understand that when people have problems, they go where they think to find the best solutions.

[REQ] Stock firmware for the GT-P5113

I know that this is a long shot, but I have been looking for the stock firmware for the 5113. I have a seed unit that was given to us to test and the firmware that is on it (as far as I know) is pre-release. I tried to updated via 'software updates' in the settings, but it says nothing is available. I want to see if I could put the stock released firmware on it to see if it runs better. Right now, there are many things that do not function properly.
Thanks in advance.

Hey MultipleMonomials! Thanks for the link. I did see that before I asked the question...I just wasn't sure if anyone had heard/gotten anything else.
I did use your guide to successfully obtain root access. Thank you. I also backed up the stock setup before I made any changes, so I guess if I needed to, I could restore the nand backup.
Thanks again....and if anyone finds anything, please let me know.
:good:
