[Q] SOLVED Upgrade from Beta 2 (B518) to Normal (B522) - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

Hi,
I need a little help here, how can i update to the lastest version (B522), when i reboot and press vol + and vol -, i get the pink screen...
Can anyone help?

Extract the folder dload, from the downloaded Official ROM, directly to the root of your SD card. Next time you press vol+, vol - and power instead of the pink screen it will start the update automatically.
The procedure is the same as described in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369296
Good luck.

Hi,
That happened when i upgraded from 2.2.1 to beta 2 2.3.5, i have clockwork recovery 5.0.2.7 and boot.img with OC (genokolar), i already try to swap to the original files, and even then i cannot go to update menu pressing the keys, always go to pink screen...cannot upgrade to Normal version...

you have to disable fast boot

Hi,
The rules says that if somebody as problems with english to write it in both languagues, english and native language, it is what we have doing, by the way, do you wanna help?
Regards!

Here it is, i already swap boot.img file, recovery file, renamed cust.img file and i have the dload folder in sdcard (both internal and external) and i'm stuck, only get pink screen, cannot upgrade to the normal version
i've tried to put boot.img and recovery.img from my 2.2.1 backup doesn't even work! Anyone have ideas???
Regards!

For me I did as follows:
1. Put the dload and update.app file on SD Card as usual
2. Power off the phone
3. Connect the phone with USB cable to the PC
4. Start upgrade with Vol Up+Vol Down+Power
5. This works to downgrade the phone to 2.2 also (in my case i did to B138)
Hope it helps

You only put the file to downgrade, did you change anything on the /image folder?
Regards.

I changed nothing on boot (since with 2.3 final you can't get access to pink screen mounted on PC). With USB cable update will be forced, no matter what, doesn't mater if it's update.app from 2.2 or 2.3.
In 2.2 you get update.app and other file i don't remember the name inside dload folder, that's the only diference.
With this method I updated to 2.3 beta1, beta2 and final, but i downgraded every single time to 2.2 (B138) and restore my Oxygen backup I made with CWM 5.0.2.7.

2.2.1 SBF for Motorola Bravo (links working)

This guide was created by jorgonv, All credits to him, I was too lazy to create another one .
I just replaced the dead links with working links.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anything YOU do to YOUR phone is not my fault, please proceed with caution​To flash your phone:​
1. Download RSD Lite, Drivers, and .sbf files from below
2. Install RSD Lite
3. Open RSD Lite as administer (hold shift, right-click on RSD Lite, select Run as administer)
4. Unzip the .gz and extract the .sbf
5. Open RSD Lite, browse for the .sbf file and select it.
6. Power your phone into the bootloader mode (hold volume up and power on, should be a black screen with white text)
[If the bootloader screen says Cannot program, your battery is too low to apply .sbf]
7. Plug phone in and run the driver installer. (You can install drivers before doing all of this)
8. RSD lite should recognize your phone now.
9. Select you phone on list in RSD Lite and press Start
10. Wait for it to finish
Whatever you do, do not unplug your phone from computer or disconnect them in any way
​
Note: If you bootloop and are stuck at the red M logo, you need to wipe data in stock recovery. To do that, hold the volume down button and continue holding it when you power up the phone. Then, once you see the triangle and android, press both volume buttons at the same time. After that, scroll down and select wipe data/factory reset.​

You are right.
But this is just in case there is no way to enter to custom recovery (2init defy) and your phone doesnt boot!
you sir are a lifesaver
Is this OK to get a stock 2.2 that I can then root and restore my apps?
I can't do OTA from 2.1, it fails telling me dlna.apk is missing.
Thanks.
Went ahead and did it anyway, painless and worked very well.
Thanks.

You can use any microusb cable, from a bb or any other phone.
Why dont you download from the market "sideload enabler for bravo"? If you live in usa and ypu are using at&t you can download it and enable install apps off market. Dont know if that is working with 2.1
Then copy or download gingerbreak 1.20. Apk, install it and click on root.

If you read very well instructions you will find how to solve that problem.
Entra al stock recovery, apaga el cel y presiona volumen abajo y boton encender, cuando te presente el android presiona ambos botones de volumen y despues wipe data y cache.

[Q] stuck with Stock recovery no usb available

I need advanced help! This is a great challenge!
I used to have CM7 in the defy.
The problem is the phone only powers on when connected to AC power. It does not power up with any computer usb. No idea why the difference.
The battery reads 100% charge.
When the phone is on, I can access stock recovery (not CWM recovery). I did both wipes several times and now I cannot access cm7.
My question is, can I flash any stock update.zip from this stock recovery??
Using RSD Lite is impossible since I cannot power on my phone with the pc. Also, I have downloaded .sbf files, but it looks I need a "update.zip".
thanks in advance for your help!

you can do that without connecting USB.
if u have backup ur stock rom restore it through CWM and if you didnt backup
ask other users to create backup file and upload you can put in SD by putting ur SD in other phone or any card reader and put the backup file in CWM folder and restore it

I am having the same issue, and absolutely NO combination of power/vol buttons changes the outcome....still just boots to that message. (Nova (P8) lite PRA-LX2 Telkom)
After clicking on an infected MMS (yes, hindsight is wonderful), the phone display started scrambling and turned off (3 days ago). After that, it wouldn't boot up. I have spent the past 3 days working to get it going. Managed to connect to ADB, then scoured the web looking for the correct firmware package. I managed to get a boot.img recovery.img and system.img that would flash but ZERO cust.img files flash. All of these failed with various flashing error messages. Last night, just before this happened, after flashing the above PLUS a TWRP.img file I found, the phone rebooted to the usual splash animation but then went to bootloop to the splash.
I thought "YES....progress!"
Then thru ADB again, I tried to flash a different CUST.img I found and after reboot got stuck at "your device is booting now".......
No recognition in adb....no change is bootup (even with any update.app and au_temp.cfg loaded on sd card)
So.....no, no buttons working, no D/L mode, no fastboot..........nada
Any other assistance would REALLY REALLY be appreciated
Thanks

**UPDATE**
After leaving the device on until the battery ran out I pressed the vol up/down and power I rebooted till the very last drop of juice. Then when it had nothing left in the tank I plugged in the charger (not connected to the laptop) and simultaneously pressed all buttons....and it booted up into eRecovery (which incidentally is USELESS), but at least now I can keep trying to flash roms until one day (hopefully before the end of days) I find one that works......

Hello,
One solution that should work: Leave the phone until it discharge completely, then keep pressing the volume down button then plug the phone in pc (while you are pushing the volume down button). This will boot the phone in fastboot mode. Right then you can flash the recovery with stock recovery or with TWRP (TWRP 3.1.1 should work)
BR,
Alaa.

[SOLVED] Need help with fixing unknown model in LGUP

I flashed the Fulmics ROM on my G6 and could not go back to stock using LGUP. Under Model and Port it shows "Unknown" and "Com 5, Fulmics" preventing me from proceeding.
I, however, managed to flash the stock rom from a zip provided in one of the threads. Still when I connect the phone to computer, LGUP says "Unknown" and "Com 5, Fulmics".
How can I fix this so that I can use LGUP again? (I also tried the Flashtool with no success)
Thanks

Yes. I even tried another computer. It appears that something about this Fulmics rom is hard coded into the phone. The developer of the rom isn't responding so I don't know what else to do.

Well, I use Fulmics also and i can say nothing is hardcoded. When you connect your G6, check the device manager on your PC to be sure your phone is detected.

2017 16GB APX Mode after trying to flash dev image.

So, i guess its totally my fault, because i did not read the instructions to the end.
What i did is basically get into bootloader
and run 3 these commands
fastboot flash staging blob
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
and not the green led does not turn on and when connected to pc it says APX in the device manager.
Is it totally broken or can i revive it yet? I already read about nvflash but it seems like its not possible at this point.
Please help, don't want to waste another 200 eur on this thing
What image did you flash? nv-recovery-image-shield-atv-7.0.2-dev_rooted? Because I think I flashed it correctly, but it seems like it bricked my device anyway.

What do you mean with you didn't read the instructions to the end?
That's the same commands that flash-all.sh / flash-all.bat execute in the beginning. After all those scripts are included in the zip file. HowTo-Flash-Recovery-Image.txt (the instructions that are linked on the download page) has a separate section for "SHIELD UNITS WITH ANDROID MARSHMALLOW OR NEWER" where it skips the reboot part. But that file also mentions stuff like pressing the power button, and the 2017 16 GB version doesn't even have one.
I executed the following commands from the Marshmallow section,
Code:
fastboot flash staging blob
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot reboot
and I have the same problem that the green LED doesn't turn on anymore. I can't access fastboot either (by holding A & B on a USB keyboard). There's just no graphical output at all. I plugged in a USB cable to my laptop, and neither adb nor fastboot see the Shield TV.

yeah, thats the one i flashed.
interesting though, i though maybe the rebooting before flashing the recovery was a wrong move, but you did what i would think i would do.
i had this feeling of "do not upgrade or you will regret it" seems i was correct
well at least i did all the backups before attempt, i am not sure what i did wrong then.
But maybe there are some advanced users who can do a tutorial(if there is one) for nvflash and APX mode, because thats the one you get.
after some research, it seems like it could be nVidia fault
at first i thought "maybe i downloaded wrong zip file" so i went to dev site and started checking.
so when you try to download
"Shield Android TV" the link is usually :https://developer.download.nvidia.c...secure/ShieldATVRecoveryImageDevRooted_7.0.1/.....
"Shield TV 2017" goes: https://developer.download.nvidia.c...ownloads/secure/ShieldATVDevRooted2017_7.0.1/......
and when you try to download 7.0.2 for 2017 the link goes: https://developer.download.nvidia.com/assets/mobile/secure/images/shield_atv/7_0_2/
then if you try to download 7.0.2 recovery image the link goes :https://developer.download.nvidia.c...ry-image-shield-atv-2017-7.0.2-dev_rooted.zip
so i am not sure they posted the right image there....
and i think we might have flashed 2015 onto 2017 here

From what image did you upgrade? I was already on nv-recovery-image-shield-atv-7.0.1-dev_rooted but that OTA upgrade notification for 7.0, that I couldn't even install, kept nagging me.

I do hope so. There are other threads on XDA about boot loops and problems with Oreo, so I hope Nvidia comes up with a fix or at least offers to fix the Shield TVs, that bricked after installing Oreo.

So, one file says the device name is darcy, and the other says it's foster. It seems like you are right about flashing the 2015 image!
Wow, this sucks. I guess if there's no fix available, it depends on Nvidia admitting that they are at fault and uploaded the wrong image? Because they could just say that we flashed the wrong image, and it's our fault.
i upgraded from 6.3 to 7.0.2 OTA, however i need root access for some apps, so i tried this image
Same here grrrrfrrrdrddfrrrrrrr
Same problem here, ive had new Shield TV 2017 16G for about 1 week, had tried 3 different roms, 620, 630 and 701. I was updating to new developers image when it BRICKED.
Ive had 4 android phones and 2 tv boxes as well as modded gaming consoles. This is the first time its gone all bad.
Ggggrrrrrrrr NVIDIA
Has NVIDIA responded yet and explained why a simple file placement on their servers has bricked numerous clients worldwide ?
Nope, no response yet, atleast not on the forum.

Guess not enough people has posted about it for them to bother doing anything.
+1. I thought for sure that I downloaded the wrong file or something... but seems like nVidia posted the wrong one and everyone who tries to flash it is ending up with a brick.
Normally I don't even consider this, but would it still be morally wrong to buy another one and return the brick since it was nVidia's fault?! "asking for a friend".
FYI, nVidia has replied here:

Hi everyone, the images have been fixed. For those that are effected by this, I'll PM you so we can RMA the unit. Thanks.

Unfortunately it seems like the new image they uploaded is still the wrong image as more people are experiencing bricks.
I'd stay away from the dev images until they sort this out.

any news how to restore 2017 version?
Same problem
I have the same problem, some solution? one day I left the shield tv on stand-by and when I wanted to use it again I did not turn on anymore, I connected it to the PC on the days to see and it shows an unknown device with the name APX, I wrote to Nvidia and they told me that I could solve it with some instructions that they gave me, to realize them I need the original Joystick Shield and I do not have it, so I could not try, since he told me that with the PC keyboard it was not going to work, they told me they changed it for a new one but the problem is that I live in Argentina and can not advance with the RMA because the device is not sold officially in Latin America, so for now I am a very cute black adornment with green details :/
