Sent from my R800i using XDA App

most likely you wasn't gonna get a reply with such post because the title of the thread isn't clear and you didn't tell the problem in detail...
but assuming you're trying to ask about lock pattern ??
if this is the case so you have to enter secret question's answer or / and your gmail ID password to unlock phone...

1. Change the name of your thread.
2. Try to do factory reset. Here is the link with explanation. Probably it's the best solution (he'll lose all his phone data), but I might be wrong.

change the name of the thread please ?

Dude I can try and help you if you explained this in deatail cuz there are many gestures we could think about and about 500 of em would probaly be wrong

If he's using stock ROM...SEUS (too bad)
If a custom ROM is installed, pull out the battery, enter xRecovery and restore a backup (if he did a recent backup), else, full wipe.

If i flash CyanogenMod 7 is there a possibility to brick my Arc?

Hi
I downloaded the repository of cyanogenMod it run gingerbread 2.3.4 so i am trying to port to Arc and try to learn and i built it, its generic and i tested it on the emulator and it worked.
now if i want to flash my Arc for a test will it brick my Arc???
i have the system.img but i am not sure if its safe to test it on my Arc and not briking it. if not then i will test and if anything happened i will reflash with Bin4ry's image.
unless you've modded it to work with the Arc hardware (drivers/ screen resolution etc) then it simply won't work.. so you probably shouldn't bother taking the risk..
There is already someone working on this.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057555
yes i am monitoring the thread. but i wanted to try to miss and take a look on the files.
Chances are u could just use flashtool and it would be fine

He has bootloader unlock and might be better to push Bin4ry's .img file.
Well yea that way would save his data but if it sent work obviously flashtool send me the cm7 over ill try n boot it aswell

It's impossible to brick the phone completely by flashing system.img. So you're safe.
Thanks guys.

If you're using a X10i you better be in the X10 forum...Flashing a X8 rom will definitely render your phone unusable. Here this is the link to the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=614
Thanks Boss.
I use both x10i and x8 I have successfully gotten my x10i off se hook but my x8 now, its rooted and yet can't run any tethering app on it. It says kernel not supported.
I downloaded the new build that was posted on x8 page asking to just restore using xRecovery but it says md5 error. This. Where I need help cus my x8 carried the internet connection and I wanna share it onto my other devices. Need help again.
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
You can fix md5-mismatch-errors with a special code in ADB, just search for "md5 mismatch" on Google, on the first site there´ll appear a site from xda.
click it and do what´s mentioned there.
And what new build did you download?
The one with an "A" inside or that one with the "C" inside (it looks like:
2.1.1.A..... or something similar) because most ROMs require the A-build, which you can download and flash with flashtool.
But I don´t get what you mean with "it carried the internet connection".
Please explain it more exactly.

flashing without loosing apps

Sorry, I am new and maybe this is a silly question. Can I flash a new rom without loosing my apps and their settings and my games and their saves ? Like backing-up all these.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
If you are rooted use titanium backup from market, but the fact you asked this indicated you need to study more before you start flashing roms
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
hahaha. Thank you very much for your quick answer ! Maybe you are right. The fact is that I already flashed my phone 2-3 times but never interested in backing-up. On the other hand now, I have spent a lot of time with it and I do not want to loose my apps. Is there something specific I should do with titanium back-up ? or I just back-up with this app and then, after I flash, I restore ? ( sorry haven' t used it before )
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Yeah you just backup before flashing, restore after. Bear in mind I don't think it is compatible between cm7/miui and samsung - based roms.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Well restoring app data can cause problems, but that is depending on what rom you are flashing to and from, and like any app you need to learn to use it I recommend paid version as it allows you to batch restore and backup

You may have problems with app data but I'm really not sure, you will know if you do because you will get a lot of fc of apps

thank you slaphead20 and jaju123 very much ! I will try to save anything I can with titanium. flashing is much more important for me.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Some games store their save files on the SD card (data or similar). So if you flash a new ROM, all you need to do is reinstall the game and you can start where you left.
Thank you !
ive never had any problems backing up and restoriing ONLY user downloaded apps between cm7, stock and miui using titanium. the only thing which would cause you problems would be restoring system apps..
if you wish to backup messages also and use them with other firmwares u could also use GoSMS, which has a backup function

[Q]Can someone explain in detail how to Root with Locked Bootloader?

Hello,i am trying to Root my phone but i had no success due to the lack of any detailed guide for Rooting with Locked BootLoader.(For play)

i downloaded everything the OP has said
But the Flashtool is confusing for me,how do i add a new Device with Properties,drivers,Flashtools etc?
@[email protected] i am so confused,the only thing i have done was delete the X10 firmware and replaced it with the Generic UK one.
Help? Will this also delete everything on my phone?
Yes it will delete everything on your phone.
Do you have a verison phone?
Try what this person did. I didn't use the flash tool.

There is a rogers specific one but I can't find it. It worked for me and I added a few noob tips to it.
Oh thanks man, but question. How do I "flash"? Can you link/explain in detail please?

Edit : I can't root via gingerbreak... So can't use titanium backup...
l2 xda search
tbh if you can't read or search then you probably shouldn't be flashing your phone.
The fact that you have made 2 threads and also asked the same question in other threads is a bit spammy tbh.
Ay sorry bout that. I thought I'd get more help here.

There are backup apps other than titanium, a lot of them don't need root.

Next time you get a solution, make sure you update your posts. Of course this is easier to do when you don't post the same question in multiple threads..

Search for SEUS on xda and google. As soon as you find a download for it get it.
2nd bird. @earlier posts.
That no way to talk to a member. Don't argue with each other or this thread will be closed. Good luck

Look,we are talking about x8 here because he is flashing his friends phone.and I was here on x8 forum long before you knew about this phone.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using xda premium
solutions for that:
1) flash the stock ROM using the flashtool
2) Root it again, install busybox, and install this
this will help you to install xrecovery again
3) boot into xrecovery, factory reset / wipe data
4) flash the rom you want~
take out the battery and insert it back after 30 seconds..turn on your phone and press back button when "sony ericsson' pop out..
