Bricked my new Hero AND Magic !!! ??

HELP!
After JF 1.51 I installed latest Radio with it.
reboot - fine
Then I installed an SPL.
reboot - fine
Radio : 2_22_19_26I
SPL : Haykuro's "Special"
Then I tried the JacHero 2.1F Image
reboot - the Sign comes up (the unwrapping Phone) - nothing - dead
Here my dmesg:

The SAME Story now for my HTC Magic.
This is the most expensive Brick I ever bought :-(
So is the a way to reocver?

- JF 1.51
- SPL.
- 2_22_19_26I
- SPL
- JacHero 2.1F
Um, none of these are Hero ROMs!!!

you must send them back to htc, theres no alternative.. but i cant unterstand why people install a software (=rom) for a different hardware system...

Sorry, that you cant understand...
As the hero is the most expensive I took tis first into account, but as you can read with this software I bricked my my G2 MAGIC as well!
on both phones the same ****.
AND, it would be better if the pseudo developers would be more professional in publishing and tell the user that this Ropm is JUST for this phone, etc... Can't see it written on the Homepage - just here in the forum I see more background infos...

thanks anyway, I send both bricks back to recovery service and maybe let you know...

Very pleasant post!
Given that "justanothercrowd" *specifically* states
PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE FLASHING ANY ROM INCLUDING MINE!!!

in his XDA post for his ROM, I find it rather surprising that you should decide to denigrate the ROM developers because *you* did not follow those instructions. ( link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=522076 )
In the XDA world, whatever you do to your phone is *your* responsibility. Even if you correctly follow the instructions, and end up with a bricked phone, it is still *your* responsibility. I'm not try to be harsh here, but this is a simple fact - if you flash any phone with a ROM from a "non-authorized" source, you are effectively unsupported, with the exception of the goodwill of the people and developers in the community that provided the ROM. Making statements like the one quoted above is one of the fastest ways to see that goodwill dissipate!

Sorry, but by your actions and your subsequent tone, you've established that you are a noob in this context. BTW - what's a "registered linux user"?

Just a quick question - does an "Arch LINUX Package Maintainer" beat a level 5 Arch Mage in Dungeons and Dragons?

So lets see -
You do something idiotic ( and with known risks we all take onboard )
Then mess it all up...twice
Then go squealing thats it 'not your fault' whilst claiming to be the GOL ( Gandalf of Linux )
Good luck on obtaining help here.

why do i see a flame war coming?
you have three posts and two of them is whining that you screwed up on ROMs that are not for the devices you have....
muahahaha! more money than sense...?

How hard can it be, to use a rom from the correct section (e.g. the Hero forum part for... indeed, Hero roms!).
You should not blame the 'pseudo developers' for your mistakes.
On the other hand I'm going to cut you some slack. Even though you made a terrible mistake, fooked up completely and you are now desperately trying to blame other people for it... I totally feel your pain. Losing two devices like this obviously isn't a nice experience at all. And it's probably going to cost you money on top of that as well, it totally sucks!

Please tell us if HTC fixed your phones for free (just in case that mine gets bricked, too). Wishing you good luck.
BTW with Arch: I love it, but thats the stuff with the not really researching, same on Android and Arch, when you do something without "really" knowing what, you can damage it.
OK, cya anyway and stay with us and Android
Greets.

Well colour me surprised. Nice to see that not everything descends into flaming here..!

Yes. Both have been replaced without a hassle. I told them it was bricked after putting in a foreign card on vacation and getting a spurious OTA (stupid but worked).
The mistake with one fon was definitely my fault and I excuse for the tone. English is not my native language and this sounded way too rude.

Oh I do love a happy ending!
Glad you got it sorted
Read, read again, and then read another few times just to be sure - That's my mantra when it comes to flashing / modding my phone.

NST + USB 3G modem

Hi
Now that we have noefresh hack and multitouch aside of USB host support, maybe someone can port USB tethering to nook?
This way, we could use a USB 3G modem to have internet on the go with our Nook Simple Touch.
Web browsing in broad daylight in the park! ) working from terrain with webbased applications.... voip calling.... the possibilities are there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940470
Above's a link from a similar thread explaining the procedure for a non-3g android tablet.

Voip is quite a stretch (no sound, duh). But the idea is quite good, having 3G access is a must, even though battery time would drop sharply (1 day maybe, like regular tablets?).

I want to buy a NST and no 3g is the only thing blocking me from getting one.i thought of getting a super cheap android phone using wifi tether, but it seems like overhead.

I hope I'm proved wrong, but I've worked with embedded linux devices and USB 3G dongles in the past and they place quite heavy demands on the power supply circuitry. In the case of the Nook Touch I get the feeling the USB host functionality would struggle to handle the peak loads required. If you do experiment, start with a powered USB hub and keep an eye out for odd behaviour when transitioning to battery powered (most commonly: device dropping out as unrecognized, failing to connect despite good reported signal)

Worst scenario a hardware mod will be required to supply needed extra oomph.
I was thinking of integrating the USB dongle's insides into the NST anyway, once it'd work automatically.
Can someone with an NST show output from lsusb -vl from adb?

Why not use your mobile as a router(hotspot)and tether via wifi?

Ok, if it will make you happy.
Code:
busybox lsusb -vl
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 058f:6254
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 058f:6254
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0d8c:0008
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 04d9:1203
Now you know what I have plugged into my Nook at this very moment.
How does this help?

Trying to diagnose my USB modem on android, tips?

So i have a CA-FI 7008000 android powered car stereo, it is a freescale based android 2.2 device with a USB host port dedicated for usb modems. Currently I am attempting to use the Sierra wireless 313u (att momentum 4g ) with it. When plugged in, it powers on and status lights begin blinking indicating it does see a network, but does not connect (light should go solid). Currently it isplugged into the correct port and is in Modem only mode. I have verified the device works on windows and a mac.
I've done a fair amount of hacking in android, but I'm beyond lost with this.
under dmesg in terminal im getting **** like this:
<6>usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using fsl-ehci and address 5
<4>usb 1-1: config 1 has an invalid interface number: 7 but max is 3
<4>usb 1-1: config 1 has no interface number 2
any ideas?

It sounds like either the USB descriptors in the device are a bit flakey or else your Linux is.
You can use usbview.exe under Windows (although it's ancient).

[Q] Wifi cracking with Nexus7

Hi guys,
Just installed ubuntu, wireless keyboard and mouse, MHL... OMG this is awesome
sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng, and it even worked.. hehehe...
Ok so now for the sad part.
airmon-ng start wlan0 works ok and creates mon0
but as you can google around, the BCM4330 card does not support wifi injection.
So two chances here:
1) wait for injection drivers
2) plug in a wifi dongle and compile some drivers for it
what steps must I do to be able to compile drivers on this?
emerge kernel headers and make && make install?
I think someone must already have tried this..
(ps: why does lspci show nothing?)
Cheers!
Phk

Even with PCs, air*-ng is not very portable (in the hardware sense) to arbitrary wireless phy chips.
A couple years ago, when buying NICs for PCs for that type of application, you had to be extremely careful about the exact revision (not just the model number!) of PCI cards - manufacturers had the habit of randomly choosing slightly different phy chips with different version releases of the same NIC cards.
I don't know if the issue is hardware or a lack of API support by the proprietary firmware blobs - it could be either. I'm pretty sure that the N7 uses a proprietary (Broadcom?) downloadable firmware blob to fire up the WiFi phy - the driver is not a "pure open source" driver.
good luck.

Perhaps because there is no PCI bus?

Lol, stupid me
About the wifi drivers, has anyone tried to compile external wifi-dongle drivers with success? any caveats?!
Thanks!

[Q] Usb Host: Ethernet Adapter (Driver Compile Requested For Money)

Greetings....
I am hoping to get my Asix Usb to Ethernet adapter working with my nook STG. I believe the only remaining requirement is to compile the drivers for it (which are android 2.x compatible according to the driver manufacturer website).
I am rooted and have 'usb host mode' successfully working.
When my adapter is plugged in, it displays as a 'connected device' in my Usb Host information app and shows the details; make/model etc - so its connected successfully.
It works plugnplay with my other droid devices, however in these devices there is an Asix driver folder in /sys/bus/usb/drivers and there is not in my Nook, thus I believe i simply need to compile the drivers which will create the Asix driver folder.
If you have the correct setup and can compile the drivers for me (and potentially other Nook users), i will exchange them for 10GPB or 10 of your currency, via your desired means.
I am slowly trying myself on an ubuntu vm in windows but can only use the pc for short periods due to eye troubles; hence trying to use a Nook as my sole computer.
INFO:
Device: Nook STG firmware 1.21 - kernel source file link = images.barnesandnoble.com/PResources/download/Nook/source-code/nook2_1-2.tgz
Adapter Driver: Asix AX88772 - driver source file link = www.asix.com.tw/FrootAttach/driver/AX88772C_772B_772A_760_772_178_LINUX_Driver_v4.11.0_Source.tar.bz2
Adapter Info: BobjGear Adapter made for Android Tablets = www.amazon.co.uk/BobjGear-Ethernet-Exceptions-Description-Ultrabooks/dp/B007RTACDM
Other info: An XDA thread compiling the same drivers - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37548841
I don't know how to apply the drivers so I need to learn how to do so, I have ADB set up and have Noogie, CWM and NookManager .img also.
Any other info needed i will provide
Sam

Just a quick comment:
Host mode on the Nook currently uses a lot of power.
Something like >100mA in comparison to a usual 8 mA or so.
It's not been tracked down yet.
I can get you better figures for this later.
Presumably this is for some fixed install using hard-wired power?

No I'm actually just using it as it is; no hardware mods.
I have not used usb host enough to know the drain speed but while plugged in to a live ethernet yesterday, it drained seemingly quick.
This isn't a preventative issue though; my need to access the web on the nook via ethernet (no wifi dizziness) is urgent.
If i had to recharge every 10 mins e.g, this would be extremely hindering but still necessary.
Hard wiring may be desirable (maybe not if it's permanent), i haven't read any posts on it thus far.
I do have a powered hub etc if applicable, i dont know if it can charge as well as hosting from the usb.
Sam

Yes, you can USB host and charge.
I'd recommend a back-powering hub.
That way, if you want to throw a USB keyboard on it too, you can.

Great, i'll give it a try
