Click to collapse
You have to do this:
Boot (Volume Down - )>>Recovery System>>Repair Device>>Refomat Disk
After this you have to connect your archos to your pc and copy a *.aos file from archos.com (firmware)
after this procedure, your archos will have the normal archos os and the sde
You should try to install urukdroid again, you may had a wrong zImage or initramfs...

[QUOTE="tormox, post: 0"]Ok I'll try make this as simple as possible for you all.
[COLOR="Red"]NOTE[/COLOR]: The PS3 firnware HAS to be [COLOR="Red"]3.41[/COLOR]. No less and DO NOT install 3.42 as this blocks the ability to use these hacks.
[COLOR="Red"]NOTE[/COLOR]: To enable playing of backed up games follow instructions in updated part of post 1.
Check post 1 for download link.
[COLOR="Red"]NOTE[/COLOR]: Make sure PS3 is turned off at the mains or power switch for FAT models and the USB cable is unplugged!
Step 1 - Download
Step 2 - Extract the Android folder and place onto the root of your SD card.
Step 3 - Using Windows Mobile go to File Explorer and find the Android folder, then run CLRCAD.exe ([COLOR="Red"]NOTE[/COLOR]: It will NOT appear to have done anything but it will have) then run HaReT.exe
Step 4 - You will see white text flying up the screen this normal, wait for it to finish and the Android lockscreen will appear. Unlock the phone so your on the homescreen. ([COLOR="Red"]NOTE[/COLOR]: Make sure the phone doesnt go into standby and the screen stays on)
Step 5 - Plug the USB cable into your phone and PS3.
Step 6 - Turn the mains switch on for your PS3.
Step 7 - Press the power button and then press the eject button (NOTE: eject button must be pressed right after the power button!)
Step 8 - PS3 will take slightly longer to boot up, this is normal. Download Manager.pkg and put it onto the root of a external HDD (FAT32 filesystem only, NTFS is not supported by the PS3) or a USB stick.
Step 9 - Plug in your HDD/USB stick into the PS3 and go to the new folder under games menu called "Install Package File", open it and click X on the manager.pkg to install.
Step 10 - Enjoy!
[COLOR="Red"]NOTE[/COLOR]: If you wish to rename the PSFreedom folder from Android so that you can use your normal Android build follow these steps:
Step 1 - Open startup.txt from within the Android folder (PSFreedom version)
Step 2 - Change set cmdline "" to set cmdline "rel_path=PSFreedom"
Step 3 - Rename the Android folder to PSFreedom.[/QUOTE]
[B]***UPDATE***[/B]
To enable backup loading, download this:
[url]http://www.multiupload.com/9LHKYKBA6W[/url]
Readme:
[QUOTE]This package contains GScript Lite which has been modified by me.
Assuming your PSFreedom build folder is still named Android...
- Copy the Android folder to the root of your SD card, it will create a new folder in your Android folder on your SD card named AndroidApps.
- Boot Android.
- Enable internet connection (Either Wifi or 3G)
- In order to update PSFreedom, use GScript Lite program in Android and there will be an Update PSFreedom icon there. Keep running Update PSFreedom if all you see is a blue screen with "stderr" and nothing else. You should see the word PSFreedom pop up on the screen. Once that is done, then backups will be enabled.
The latest update will enable backup loading. Enjoy![/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]UPDATE: 22/09/2010
PSFreedom module updated to use latest payload with LV2 Peek and Poke support.
Either use GScript above and update the module or download the module yourself and push it yourself. Get the module from here: [url]http://gamesquare.co.uk/psfreedom.ko[/url]

If someone could make a video on how exactly does the steps needed to be done , it would be wonderful.
Step 1 is clear.
Step 2 and Step 3 question - When do I need to plug the USB cable into PS3, before running haret or after that ? If I plug it after running haret , when exactly do I need to do this , cause haret starts immediately and turns off phone in about a minute ?
Step 4 is also clear.
Step 5 - when must I see the "PSFreedom gadget: Got disconnected" text ? After pressing the front button and eject button , or before that (after switching the back button on)
Step 6 and 7 also Clear.
Thanks for the answers in advanced !!!

[Q] Need Help!!! Installing 2.2

Hello,
I want to install the 2.2 rom, but I dont know how, I've searched here, but I couldnt understand much, the link I've tried are dead or in russian (which confuses me a lot).
So I'd really love if someone could make a step by step tutorial to help me out.
Please, include links.
Thanks
And please, if you can, plz help me understand what is the recovery mode, and how to do so...
Thank again

If you can't understand...I'll post another guide.
This is a guide I followed from another forum, and posted elsewhere with some minor additions in case anyone had problems.
The guide is from a forum post at the android forums,it is NOT my work, the added bits are mostly what I have found from browsing here and from asking questions. While I can't be held liable if you mess your phone up having done so myself I thought this could helpa few people and save them searching various threads for answers so hope it helps
The guide
To install this ROM you need to have fastboot enabled on your phone. If you have Android 1.6/2.1 installed from LG, then fastboot is not enabled. I will explain how to enable fastboot on your phone (this involves re-flashing/replacing your currently installed firmware):
I am unable to post links yet so you will have to copy and paste the appropriate link into your browser replacing the ** with tt
KDZ Updater Carphone Warehouse Unlocked.zip can be downloaded at h**p://goo.gl/7aRTc - A link to a zip archive with all the files needed to flash to Android version 2.1 with fastboot (Carphone Warehouse Unlocked)
KDZ Updater Europe Open.zip can be downloaded at h**p://goo.gl/BOcYT - A link to a zip archive with all the files needed to flash toAndroid version 2.1 with fastboot (Europe Open)
Download the version that best applies to you, if you live in the UK, I'd recommend you download the Carphone Warehouse Unlocked version, whereas if you live in Europe, I'd recommend the Europe Open version (simple right? )
I live in the UK and used the open rom from Europe as the Carphone Warehouse rom would not install
Now, how to flash these versions; I'll explain in detail how to flash the ROM's from starting with backing up.
Instructions to install ROM with Fastboot:
1. Before you start, make sure you backup all your data by installing the z4root.1.3.0.apk file onto your phone, then open it and choose 'Permanent Root'. Your phone will root and reboot. Then go to the Market and install 'MyBackup Root', open it and do a backup of your apps and personal data (contacts, sms, call log etc.) Once this is done, go to Settings>SD Card and Phone Storage>Unmount SD Card, a notification in the notification bar should appear saying 'SD Card safe to remove'. Remove the battery cover and remove the SD card and store it in a safe place. Then continue to step 2.
2. Extract the .zip file you downloaded to your computer (e.g. your desktop). Open the folder and install MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser (msxml.msi).
3. Once that has finished, install LGAndroidDriver_WHQL_ML_Ver1.0_All_Win7.exe which are the drivers so your computer will recognize your phone.
4. Next, open KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
(i) Change 'Type' to '3GQCT' *THIS IS A MUST, THE UPDATE WILL NOT WORK OTHERWISE AND YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE*
(ii) Make sure 'PhoneMode' is set to 'DIAG'
(iii) Browse for the 'V20B_00+Fastboot.kdz' file.
5. Prepare the phone by enabling USB Debugging by going to Settings>Applications>Development>Enable USB Debugging and connect the phone to the computer via USB cable and wait for the drivers to install for the phone.
6. Click 'Launch software update' and do not use your computer until the update is complete. The update will take roughly 10-20 mins to complete.
If you have a problem with this try a different rom, this guide offers two to choose from.
Instructions to install CyanogenMod:
Once the update is complete, your phone will reboot, what you need to do is power off the phone and whilst the phone is off, press and hold the 'Camera' button all the way ANDpower on the phone, make sure you hold the 'Camera' button. The phone will display the LG logo and disappear, then display a blank screen. The phone is now in fastboot mode!
Now you want to download this file: Flashing CyanogenMod.zip and extract it to a folder called 'Android' (without the quotes '') on the C: drive (you'll probably need to make this folder yourself.
1. Now open CMD with administrator privileges (Search for CMD in the start menu and right click on 'cmd' and click 'Run as Administrator' )
2. Connect the phone to your computer via USB cable and wait for the necessary drivers to install.
If when connected with a usb cable the computer says "waiting for device" and nothing else happens try installing the fastboot drivers. You can do this by going to the control panel of your pc, from the Windows start menu, opening the list of devices and where you see the one representing your phone (likely, as was the case with me, it will say android and have a yellow exclamation mark over it). Different versions of Windows do things slightly different but what you need to do is simply update the driver by choosing the icons properties box choosing UPDATE or INSTALL DRIVER and when asked pointing it to the folder where you unzipped the drivers.
3. Then go back to the cmd window and type:
Code:
cd C:\Android
(i) Then type:
Code:
fastboot.exe -w
(ii) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe erase system
(iii) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe flash system system.img
(iv) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
(v) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe reboot
4. Your phone will now reboot with CyanogenMod 6.1.1 (Android 2.2.1). The first boot might take longer than a normal boot.
If your phone stays at a blank screen you simply forgot to do one of the above steps, in which case simply repeat them. It is likely if that happens that you simply forgot the flash boot image instruction.
5. You can now re-insert your SD card and go to Settings>SD Card and Phone Storage>Mount SD Card
Enjoy!
The instructions for flashing both the firmware with fastboot and flashing CyanogenMod are included in the zip archives called 'Readme'. I'll update the links so that you'll always have the most up to date version of CyanogenMod available for download, note that if you choose to update your phone you will loose all your data including apps etc. so backup before you update
And that, with a few comments added by myself, is the guide.
Once you have set your phone up the way you want power off your phone. Hold the HOME and POWER buttons down while the LG logo appears and you will see a menu appear on screen.
Using the volume down key to navigate the different menu choices, and the camera button to select an option choose the BACKUP OR RESTORE option and from the sub menu that it will give you choose BACKUP.
This will make a backup of your phone AND all your data, if you ever mess up an update or think you have damaged your phone in the future simply holdthe POWER and HOME buttons down and when the menu appears choose the RESTORE option

You also need fastboot drivers.

Either one will be fine. Those are just for temporary Rom because they have fastboot. You wont be keeping them.
Sent from my GT540 by MBt
little question... how long does it takes to complete the process? my phone is on download mode for like 30 minutes.. kinda nervous here, its stuck at:
3GQCT : wParam = 205, IParam = 0
btw, internet should be on?
What!? You sure u followed the instructions very carefully? Using the KDZ updater tool and correct settings?
yes, followed step by step
What happens if I cancel the process?
Well...which step are you on at the moment?
Step Complete : C Drive Erase
Wo wo wo...so it's done? Finish flashing v2.1 on ur android with fastboot?
dont understand, its done?
Well...what's happening on screen in the updater? Does your phone reboot now? No more safe mode?
If it is rebooting then it's done. Now all you have to do is get into fastboot mode which means holding CAMERA + POWER when turning on your phone.
on the phone is still download mode and the last line on the updater is:
3GQCT : wParam = 205, IParam = 0
Did you uncheck "Mass Storage Only" in the phone before you flashed? That may be ur problem....or try unmounting the SD.
yea, I think mass storage only was off, and sd card isnt in
What about USB debugging mode? That needs to be checked.

[GUIDE] Rooting HTC Wildfire (Froyo)

THIS GUIDE WILL HELP YOU ROOT ANY WILDFIRE WITH HBOOT VERSION 1.01.0001/1.01.0002
This guide is in fact a combination of two other guides:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130044
I take no responsibility for whatever may happen to your phone.
To root, you first need to gain S-OFF, this part is taken from the first thread.
So here we go,
- Before doing anything, make sure you have the latest HTC SYNC on your PC (get it from here).
- Connect your phone to PC and sync all your data (contacts, media, docs...etc.)
- Disconnect your phone, then uninstall HTC SYNC, but you must leave the drivers on your PC.
(i.e. Uninstall the htc sync program only, not the drivers)
S-OFFing the Device
Downgrade to HTC Froyo WWE for AlphaRevX "now named: Revolutionary" (HBOOT 1.01.0001)
It has been confirmed that AlphaRevX "Revolutionary" tool is not S-OFFing wildfire (buzz) 2.2.1, with HBOOT 1.01.0002!
Therefore, downgrading the HBOOT to 1.01.0001 is must for the meantime, to get an efficient S-OFF.
Lots of people seem to be having issues when trying to downgrade their Wildfire from a carrier-branded version (HBOOT 1.01.0002) to unbranded WWE (HBOOT 1.01.0001).
So, here’s a small package to help you do this.
click here.
If you have HBOOT 1.01.0001, you can skip to the step entitled Revolutionary
Extract this package somewhere you can find it, like your “Desktop” for example.
Step 1: run step1.bat from the package. This will downgrade your MISC partition to allow for the RUU downgrade.
At the end, GoldCardTool will start up, to allow you to create a goldcard which you will need before starting Step 2.
How to deal with Gold-Card Tool:
1. Switch off your phone, remove your microSD card.
2. Insert the microSD card into your card reader, connect it to your computer and format the card to FAT32 file system.
3. Insert the card into your HTC Wildfire and power it on.
4. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled on your phone in Menu > Settings > Applications > Development.
5. Connect the phone to your computer via USB and set the mode to charge only.
6. Launch Gold-Card Tool on your computer and click ‘GetCID’.
7. Copy the CID code from the text box and click the link shown below that text box to open it in your browser window.
8. In the browser window, enter all the details required and submit that form.
9. You should now get an email from PSAS. Open it and download the ‘GoldCard.img’ attachment.
10. Now set your phone’s USB mode to Mass Storage.
11. In Gold-Card Tool, click ‘Refresh’.
12. Select your mounted SD card from the drop-down menu saying “HTC MMC:”
13. Click ‘Load Goldcard.img’ and select the file downloaded in Step 11.
14. Click ‘Patch MMC’ and your Gold Card will be created. You may exit Gold Card Tool once done.
After you've made the goldcard, and patched it, continue with step 2.
• Step 2: run step2.bat from the package. This will downgrade your ROM version to HTC WWE Froyo for Wildfire (unbranded).
If you get a Customer ID error while doing this, your goldcard is not working!
Create a new goldcard and re-run step2.
Revolutionary
* Steps:
1st You need to get to: http://revolutionary.io/ to download the tool, and to get your “beta key” which you’ll get in a pop-up window in the same download page after you click the download link for (windows version).
The “beta key” is a must; the tool won’t work without it!
You’ll be asked to provide your phone “serial no.”, typically it should be something like HTXXETDXXXXX, and you can get it from:
Settings --> about phone --> phone identity.
Now, do the following:
1. Run latest version of HTC Sync on your PC and connect phone in HTC Sync mode and sync all your files. Remove HTC Sync and not the drivers.
2. Reboot phone.
3. Settings->Applications->Development->Check “USB Debugging”.
4. Run Revolutionary and connect phone to PC in “Charge Only mode”.
5. Revolutionary should recognize your phone and show your Device Serial number.
7. Type out the “key” in the Revolutionary tool software, keeping in mind the upper and lower case letters and press enter (you can copy / paste the key).
8. Revolutionary should start doing its job and you’ll get S-OFF in less than 90 seconds.
9. If it takes longer, just wait for the 15 minutes mark, if nothing, then reboot phone and retry.
(Some members got S-OFF after multiple tries)
Now, to get to actually rooting the phone by installing clockworkmod and subsequently, the superuser app.
1. Ensure that your SD Card is FAT32 then copy this to the root of your SD card: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=548407&d=1300751790
2. Go into HBOOT(switch off phone and switch on while holding down the volume down button) and click yes when it asks you to update
3. Remove the img file from your sd card and add this file: http://bit.ly/su2361ef
4. Go into HBOOT and click Recovery!
5. Click install zip from sdcard (or some thing like that) (Protip: Navigate in the recovery with the trackpad, not the power button!)
6. Click choose zip from sdcard
7. Locate your zip and let it update
8. Boot into your now rooted phone and install ROM Manager from the market.
9. Open ROM manager and Install Clockword Mod recovery (or sth like that) twice in a row (this is important to ensure proper installation)
YOU ARE NOW ROOT!!!!
Optional: Use ROM manager to install CyanogenMod or another ROM of your choosing

Firstly, were you even on HBOOT version 1.01.0002?
If you were, check if the downgrade was successful after running step2.bat
If it wasn't make sure HTC Sync has been uninstalled but the drivers have not
If the drivers are in place, I suggest looking for a solution at the orginal guide found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035

The first instruction tells you to switch off the phone before removing the SD card.
Try it again.
If it doesnt work, run everything as administrator, else, go to the orginal thread and post your problems there

Shouldn't.... but I did it on a XP 32 bit so maybe you could try running in compatibility mode...
i tried that but no luck..... i also tried on my windows vista 32bit with no luck
Finally got this process to work for me after numerous unsuccessful attempt. Main problem was I was using Win7. Switched to Win 3.1 and things worked.
Also in the guide the step
7. Copy the CID code from the text box
Need to me clarified to ... "Copy the reversed CID code from the text box "
After that all good and am now back on Hboot 1.01.0001.
Thanks for the guide.
Like a charm. Thanks.
Thanks for the information

make sure that you're using the proper controls...:
After boot you select items by vol keys and choose by hitting the power button.
In CWM you also select by vol keys but choose by hitting trackball
Have you done so?

At first boot it might take a while to boot up. If it remains stuck on the logo I'd suggest to reinstall but do a "full wipe/factory reset" from inside ClockworkMod (even better format system and data before).
BTW Which ROM are you trying to install?
Thank u very much for ur help....I appreciate u people very much....
Bt actually that rom was not good that's y I was facing that issue

IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH CMD and are on Windows 7 (or similar), make sure you start CMD in admin mode.
Otherwise it doesn't work.
1- Make sure the files are stored in a folder in C:\ (or somewhere very short unless you know command line). For example: C:\goldcard
Copy the files from the folder they came in and throw them in there.
2- Go to start and write CMD. Now DO NOT single click the program or type enter. Instead do CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER
This opens it in Admin mode. (some pop up confirmation may appear).
3- Navigate to the folder by writing "cd C:\goldcard". (Without the quotation marks of course. Use the name of the folder you created in step number one.)
4- write step1.bat
That should do it. The same applies to step2.

Go here: http://d-h.st/Kya and download the zip file. Inside is everything you need.
Unzip. The first one is the DFT_MLI_SAM1.exe. That is the one that gets MAGLDR on your phone.
Once that is done, the other DFT_WPI_SAM1.exe file is the best 7.8 ROM I have used yet.
It is discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528984
To install:
0.) Have MAGLDR installed on your phone and Samsung Drivers installed on your PC
1.) Place the zip files 'OS.D000FF + CSC.D000FF + DFT_WPI_SAM1.exe + rapitool.exe + Readme.txt' in a folder
2.) Go to 'Settings' -> 'about' -> 'reset your phone' -> 'yes' -> 'yes'
3.) Right when the screen goes black press and hold 'voldown + camera'
4.) Press '<-' (cancel)
5.) Plug your phone into your PC
6.) Flash OS.D000FF + CSC.D000FF with DFT_WPI_SAM1.exe
7.) Wait
8.) Go through setup wizard on phone
9.) Go to 'Settings' -> 'about' -> 'reset your phone' -> 'yes' -> 'yes'
10.) Enjoy

http://windowsphonehacker.com/artic...r_and_custom_roms_on_samsung_devices-02-08-12
^^ great tutorial by Windows Phone Hacker Jaxbot on how to go about custom ROMming it up. Make sure you've got the drivers he refers to in the video (seriously just google "Samsung USB Drivers For Mobile" and DL them) and then follow the directions.
Watch the video on the WPH site first, and don't freak out if it takes a while when you do it. The usb/computer/phone picture will probably stay on the screen for a while before a progress bar appears. Also, make sure you hard reset the phone once the new ROM is flashed.
Can't Get it to Work
have a Samsung Focus 1.3 and I am trying to Install Clean ROM 3.0.
I believe I have all the proper drivers installed on my computer (Samsung USB, WMDC) I have installed MAGLDR 2.00 on the phone and I can enter MAGLDR mode by pressing volume down + cam + power. Upon pressing back it says "Wait USB" and as soon as I connect I see "USB! CMD connected"
However, when I run DWPI I get the following error:
Please make sure that your device is connected to your computer.
also make sure that right drivers are installed (Active Sync or Windows Mobile Device Center)
Try to connect device to different USB port and also you can try to reboot PC.
Also you can try to exclude USB hubs.

I installed Magldr and Clean Rom just the other day and encountered the exact error, but I wish I paid attention to what I had done to resolve it. I believe it matters when you connect the phone to the computer. Try this:
- Disconnect your phone from the computer
- Run the Magldr installation and proceed through the steps until the point where you have to click Next to start the installation (do not start the install, just leave it at the screen just before the installation starts)
- Follow the steps mentioned before to get your phone ready for Download mode
- Now connect your phone to the computer and confirm that the device is connected and ready
- Go back to the Magldr installation window and proceed with the installation
I want to say, at least in my case, making sure the phone was connected to the computer when everything was ready (versus leaving it connected all the time), helped resolve the error.
Good luck!
I just installed Magdlr and CleanRom and got this error too. All I had to do was close the installer and unplug the phone from my PC for a few seconds. Once I plugged the phone back in and started the installer it worked the second time.

Hi there,
I have one question and how can I access step # 3 because the camera button on my phone is not working ( I Think it is a hardware issue). Is there any other workaround to do this without using the camera button?
Thanks.
