i REALLY need some help

Ok so i just found out today about the WM6 upgrade for the xv6700 so i decided to try it.
I have a Verizon XV6700 with bootloader v1.04
i used the rom from http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=7671
i downloaded the one that says Verizon not the Verizon with bootloader 1.02
I run a pc with windows vista
here is what i did step by step
I put the ppc into bootloader mode and then connected it to the pc via usb
then i opened the exe file from my desktop and followed the directions and then clicked install
it then popped up a little window saying checking the information on your device....please wait.... and below it it said dont disconnect your device until the update is complete...
i read that the update takes about 7 mins i allowed it to sit at this for 20 mins and it still did nothing...so i disconnected the usb and then tried to restart the phone and everytime i turn it on it goes straight back to the bootloader screen i cant get out of it...is there anyway for me to get my phone to work? did i brick it? If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated

geez, looks like i am not the only one messing up here. I regret this fancy roms by now... but search on PPCgeeks.com some article called "stuck on BL screen" or stuck on bootloader, there''s a little exe you run to get out of it. good luck
i got mine stuck too, but no on the BL.

mytouch 3g 3.5 problems please help

i have a problem with my tmobile branded mytouch 3g 3.5mm version
first off i got this second off my buddy in great shape almost new
has the 2.2.1 update but man it sucks FC alot very laggy
well my first problem is it will not connect to the computer either usb storage mode or usb debugging plus no options for any usb storage mode is this normal?
ps it does charge my phone but no option for charging or usb storage mode
plus i did a factory restore doing the same thing
i know the usb cable works because my gf uses it for her mytouch and it works flawless but see she never upgraded shes on 1.6 still
second i thought tmobile mytouchs had a pvt32b boards or am i wrong?
mine says
sapphire pvt 32a ship s-on g
hboot-1.33.0013 (sapp31000)
cpld-13
radio 2.22.28.25
well all in all i wanna root it but ive tried z4root nothing
universalroot nada
tried to downgrade nada
i just wanna get off this stupid froyo and put a custom rom or something that actually works any suggestions on what to do
EDIT: when i turn on usb debugging and try adb devices nothing shows up i know i got the right drivers because my gfs MT3G shows up under adb devices

Boot into fastboot and plug it up to the computer while on that screen to see if Windows will start installing drivers. The issue with the computer not recognizing the phone is driver related so if the previow try doesn't work, you'll need to manually uninstall them which I will link to in a second. After that you can use either guide in my signature to root. I'll also link you to a topic to clear up the confusion about the board.

To manually re-install the drivers: here. Look at Section III.

ok i booted into fastboot mode and windows did start to install drivers and it said device is ready etc but when i go back into android nada still doesnt see the phone

Use the link from my second post to reinstall the drivers. The other possibility is that USB is hosed in the ROM.

ii think the usb is hosed on the rom..... what now? lol i can get into the recovery menu by pressing home and power but it wont let me choose anything
ps while in fastboot mode it suddenly said fastboot usb and it popped up on my computer but nothing after that

Let me get back to my computer, about 20 minutes. So even if you select the factory reset option in recovery, it doesn't do anything? If that does work it'll wipe all your apps and you'll have to log back in with your Google account.

its a new phone i havent done anything since i noticed how bad froyo sucked on here
so i dont have apps files etc on it its still clean
and yeah i can get into the recovery thing but i cant select anything i can navi with the volume and trackball to like highlight wipe data etc etc but when i try pushing buttons to try and select anything i cant even tried pushing in the trackball nothing i cant get it to do anything
i know pushing the trackball function works because it works under android
this suckssssss

Doesn't suck. It's definitely fixable, just trying to figure out how much work it's going to be.
Try using the new school guide to root from my signature. If we run into problems its going to be while your using SuperOneClick to try and root. I'm hoping it works though. Try that, let me know whether SuperOneClick works or if you have a problem. If you have a problem, please copy the log and post it with the problem.

what if i try flashing the stock oem rom via volume down+ power sequence
and where can i download it

the computer doesnt see anything so its says waiting for device on the superoneclick
can i try flashing the oem rom?

That would get you back to 1.6. If you don't want to root and install a new ROM you can do that. Let me know and I'll provide what you need.

i mean like the official ota 2.2.1 just to see if it was the rom thats screwing with the usb connections
edit i think it has to be in the img extension i tried to downgrade but it gave me a model id error

Not without downgrading to 1.6 first and then upgrading back to 2.2.1. If recovery was working we could just re-flash the 2.2.1 ROM which would probably fix the issues your having. So do you want to downgrade to 1.6 and then root, downgrade to 1.6 and stay there, or downgrade to 1.6 and then re-update to 2.2.1?

trackball isnt working maybe after a lil googling it says to push in the trackball to do a restore in the recovery menu but its not working

i wont mind downgrading

No, it's a common problem with the recovery after running the update. Just downgrading?

i just wanna get off of froyo so what ever i gotta do i am pretty savy but ive never encountered this problem etc so im sure i can follow directions
the oem froyo sucks i just wanna try a new rom

1. Download this file, rename it to "sappimg.zip".
2. Put it on your SD card.
3. Turn the phone off.
4. Boot into hboot by holding (volume down+power), after a few seconds you'll see a bar pop up in the upper right-hand corner.
5. When prompted to hit "ACTION" to apply the image, press the trackball in.
6. You'll see a few different bars pop up in the upper right-hand corner, and then it'll ask if you want to reboot. Press the trackball in to reboot.
7. /fistpump, you're now on 1.6.
Note: You will eventually get the prompt to update again. Make sure you don't or you'll end up going through this again. If you decide later on to root, just use the "New School" guide in my signature. The "Old School" guide will work for your phone as well, but it's a lot harder and more time consuming.

it doesnt find anything i renamed file to sappimg.zip put it on the root of the sd card and it doesnt find anything
anything else?

Lost Cause?

Well i've had my i5700 for about two years and recently it's been acting rather strange, being extremely slow etc. But now it won't even boot up. I've been planning on upgrading anyway, i was just wondering if there's anything i could try to maybe save it? It's never been unlocked, still on 1.5 (thanks to complete lack of anything but Windows support by Samsung). Holding down volume down, call and call end just causes it to reboot before it reaches the end of the initial loading bar. I've tried most other combinations i could find, the only one that did anything other than a normal boot was call, ok and call end which put it in a 'self test' sort of thing, which wasn't much help.
Any ideas or should i just give up? Thanks

pm me about it so i can remember to help you tomorrow. i'll tell you how to upgrade to official 2.1. it's faster than 1.5. i can't help you now because i can't turn on my computer.

You can get android 2.1 update with Kies I believe, but if your phone is rooted try to upgrade it with FROYO for SPICA (CyanogenMod-6.1.1-Spica-alpha8.3) which you can find it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865342
It is not hard to do and I believe it works much better.

I can't use Kies if it won't boot up. And as far as i can see i can't root it without being unlocked and i can't unlock it without being rooted.
I hadn't upgraded it earlier because of the Kies driver requirement, which doesn't work on Linux. I do have access to a Windows laptop currently though...
I tried to use Kies from Download Mode, which i managed to get into a few days ago, but it doesn't do it now. Not sure if i'm doing the wrong combination or what.

If I remember correctly you don´t have to go in Download Mode when you use Kies. Just disable USB debugging. Do not enable it when you use Kies (turn it off). Then open Kies and let Kies search your phone. Then it will give you latest available version for Galaxy Spica i5700 which is android 2.1 and just let it update and reboot. I hope it will go well.

You mean disable USB debugging on the phone? Kind of hard to do when it won't boot up
I did get it to where Kies would recognize the phone, when it was stuck in a sort of loop after the boot animation. But it didn't give me the option to upgrade.

Ou yes, you mentioned the phone won´t boot up. In that case I really don´t know what to do. If I would be on your place and if I would want to keep that phone I would probably bring it to some service and explain the situation. They probably have some software to boot up the phone with I would think. If not, then I really don´t see any other option but to replace it with some other phone. That would be my choice, but of course it is up to you what do you want to do.

Okay, update: i have managed to get it into download mode. What now?

Okay, farukdgn helped me with this through PM. Seems to be sorted now. Should at least tide me through until my new phone arrives
I tried Odin myself but it seems most of the reason it didn't work for me was not being able to find the right files.

[Q] Is my u8800-51 Bricked?

I upgraded to official 2.3.4 GB (i think it was a Chinese ROM because i downloaded it from the huawei website) and i did not like it because my phone did not get Data or Wifi Or Bluetooth so i i downgraded my phone to 2.2.2 back to the original firmware it had but when i was installing it my phone said Successfully Installed and then it turned of but then nothing happened black screen, next day i change it it turn on the touch keys turn on and LED turn red but screen is black
anyone know how to fix this

I am also having this type of problem. I rooted installed CWM and flashed a custom rom now i have the blue screen issue. Can't find the files I need to repair this anywhere. All the treads have broken links.

r0y123 i am following this guide to correct my problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1589205 I will let you know if it works out.
EDIT: worked perfect I can now boot and reroot.

thanks for the help
my phone wont turn on ,the LED and touch keys turn on for a while only when i connect it to the pc or wall charger. ohh also my computer recognized my u8800-51 as a HID-Compatible device------------- anyone know why?
i cant access pink/purple screen or blue screen not even recovery.
PLEASE I NEED HELP!!!!:crying:

I installed ubuntu
can I use ubuntu to see my phone stuff? sorry i couldnt explain my self

It would be worth a try. I have and increadble and the first time i rooted and and tried to run a rom on it. I got the same kinda thing yor getting. It was a screen driver problem. That might be something to think about. My previous post worked like a charm. Try it your phone is already dead. Just pretend it is at the right screen it wont work if it doesnt find your device.

Nope It did not recognize my phone only when I'm on windows my PC recognize it as a HID-Compatible device but when I go to my Device Manager and uninstall the driver it recognize it as a ""Quantomm something something MSM"" but then windows installs it again and I'm trying to install as something else, ANYONE GOT ANY TIPS?

lg g2 trying to unroot

Hello all,
usually i deal with my problems by searching the forum, though this time i am really worried as i cant find anything to my help.
You see something went bad with the screen and because the phone is rooted, i cant get it fixed (it is still in warranty), nor can i use it (the touch sucks).
So i am trying to get it unrooted.
So i have downloaded LG mobile support tool and the drivers, i enter the phone to download mode and nothing happens. i get all the time errors. Also, in the lg mobile support tool, i see a software update. Should i do it? I cant though because the start upgrade button is greyed out, and the "LGD802" sign on the left pane is flushing like its trying to verify my g2. Also, should i wait for like 10 minutes or so when i enter download mode for the bar seen at the phone to be completed before the whole process? Lastly, the most of times the lg mobile support tool crashes on the pc.
Please help me folks... :/

Where did you buy it, it sounds like the symptoms of a frankenphone. There is a post about it, some sellers flash d802 firmware on a d800 and it causes similar problems with screen, IDK about the LG mobile flash tool.

If you are brave enough you could try taking it apart and swabbing all the conections, I don't know if that would help but some people say it helps them. And the screen could just be faulty, you never no, before I took it apart I would try reflashing rom, doing the stock touch firmware update thing, then if it still don't work try flashing a kdz for the model number physically inside your phone not the one in the system info, and then I would take it fully apart, and put it back together then if it don't work, replace the screen.

the thing is i cant really interact with the screen to reflash the rom, its inresponsive. and my lg mobile support tool randomly crashes i hook my phone up the pc and it starts the download drivers part

Try a different computer, you could use a USB otg cable to hook a mouse up to your phone if your having issues with touch screen to reset it.

try in different pc and differenrt dll
