Please help with my dead device!! - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello!
I've a big problem!
A friend gave me a gps portable navigation device, that was based on windows ce.
I deleted few files (I know, I'm really stupid!) and it doesn't work anylonger.
When I turn it on I see only the white screen with the logo of the company but nothing more happens.
I don't know how to do a hard reset. The device is unknown from some Chinese company namend Ramar. Theyr internet site is so sad....
I think I've cancelled windows!
What could I do? throw it away or there is any chance to recuperate it?
Sorry for my english!
Thank you!

no one could help me?

There sure must be a "Hard Reset" button somewhere on the device, hoping so. Try finding it ^^

I tried that
Hi,
I try that, but no response
What could I do?

I would really apreciate some help!
thank you!
A good challenge for the I780 Specialists
I bet that the solution would be very easy
All the best to you
There are quite a number of answers posted. EFN had already explained too many times. He had said that the bootloader works fine, that's a good start.
Just get the necessary rom from EFN thread, phone rom PUHE1 and the pda rom DXHE1. There is even a tutorial on this in EFN thread (1st post).
g00ndu can you please help find the thread/topic where EFN explaines it, i'm having a hard time finding it!
thank you
I think he is talking about this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409258&highlight=EFN+PUHE1+DXHE1
download Flashing Guide Tutorial - at the bottom of the 1st post
did exactly as said in the tutorial....
nothing... it seems that the eboot is always the same.....
i don't know what else to do!
g00ndu i can't find the thread you are talking about....
where does EFN talks about the bootloader or a problem like mine??
could you please help me!
thanks!

Okay step by step:
Did you downloaded the russian rom i780PUHE1 (eboot+phone+pda)?
Did you downloaded the i780DXHE1 (pda only)?
Follow the tutorial, assuming step 1 to 4 had already been done.
(5) Launch Mirage updater. Select MIRAGE LV image as the profile
(6) Select EBOOT+PDA+PHONE and select the extracted RUSSIAN .img file
(7) Click on DETECT
(8) Switch on the phone while holding the ENTER and FUNCTION buttons (ALT BUTTON)
(9) After the system DETECT message appears, connect the phone via USB to your PC
(10) Wait until the image is written.
Before flashing to the DXHE1 rom first, please try to boot up and see if it works. If it is successful, you will see plenty of gibberish characters. This is EXPECTED, as the rom is russian.
If it doesn't boot up, then I am sorry I won't be able to help you.
Try the above first. Point to note is to choose eboot+phone+pda. Always press detect first before going through the enter+function+power on process.
If it works, please let me know.
g00ndu, thank you very much, but i already done that several times step by step....
but, unfortunately it stays the same....when i power it on it turns on the backlight but the screen remains black and nothing happens...
but thank you very much anyway!
hellboss, I'm sorry about your device. Perhaps it might be a hardware issue. I'm not sure.
While the device may have a black screen, you could try to see if the LED lights work, whether there is a sound after the system boot up. These are important clues to see if it is really hardware issue.
Once again, I wish you could find a solution to your problem.
Hi, i would like to know if it is possible to discover which ROM is installed in the equipment... I mean, the samsung doens't start i can only go into emergency mode,,, is it possible through the pc to discover which ROM is installed on it??
thank you!

I'm not really sure, but have you try to dump your rom using pdocread, one of the itsutilsbin tools? Meaning get the Part00, Part01 and Part02 raw files which is your rom dump?
If i were you I will try most official rom to rescue the device first. like i780XHC4 that one has all three (healthy and normal) parts.
dogmood i already tried.... but still nothing...
g00ndu , to dump the ROM don't i need to change some values on some key at the pocket pc registry?? if so i can't because the pda doens't start....
P.S-the first time i flashed it i did it on a pc with windows xp but all the time the process was incomplete and i need to turn off the phone and restart the phone, and at the second time was succesful, now i'm doing it on a virtual machine running windows xp pro sp2,,,,, can my problem be related to that??
thank you!
I use a VM for the flashing myself, so this shouldnt cause problems.
If flashing the official rom (EBOOT & Phone & PDA) doesnt work for u then you have to consider the fact that your i780 busted on the hardware level.
The best thing to do now is to claim for warranty and make sure u sent them beack with official rom in your phone (HC4)
Hi EFN,
well I've considered that, and I think that my next move is going to be warranty
but unfortunately the ROM that came with the PDA was not the DXHC4, i bought my samsung in Portugal.
my problem now is that the PDA became dead when i flashed it with the DXHC4 eboot, and now that i can't flash any other ROM i can't put the original ROM, which i have a dump, on it....
so i think that is not going to be accepted on warranty....
honestly i can't discover what went wrong.... I followed every single step of the tutorial to revive a dead i780....
thanks!
P.S-> EFN, I'm a great admirer of your work (samsung i780 ROMs), unfortunately I'm not going to be able to try them......but... anyway keep up the good work!
I believe for as long as the rom on your i780 is an official one (regardless of version), Samsung will honor the warranty. You have to try to know. And of course dont tell them that you have been messing up with flashing this and that
well i think so, if the rom is an official one they will honor the warranty...
that's the why of my question about a way to know the version of the ROM installed on the PDA, but i haven't discover anything...
i guess will just try my luck and send it to warranty!
thanks!

please help on a bricked/dead i780

Hi all experts,
I am a newbie on this. I am in Canada, since here we dont have i780, so I brought it on ebay and didn't realize its not really an unlock phone.(been cheated) although is sim free but GPS and many other 3rd party app don't work. so i was looking for solutions and found your thread here.
I followed the flashing guide and everything seems to be ok until the russians rom is flashed. The phone turned off itself and cannot turn on anymore. I have tried holding ENTER and FUNCTION button, solf reset hole, and Start + End buttons to turn it on but it doesn't response at all.
I have spent my hard earned $500 on this phone and i am so depressed now... Please kindly help me on fixing my "not just bricked, but dead phone" or i have to save up for months for a new one... sigh..
your response is highly appreciated
Jack
I feel your pain and I had the same issue as you before.
Phone won't turn on after flashing and the mirage reported the flash was 100% done.
I suspect this is due to the samsung modem driver was not installed properly. I had forgotten to do a reboot after the driver install or it might be due to something else.
The way I fixed it was to send to ther service center as it is still under warranty. They had to replace some chips to make it work again and I think that might be your last hope.
thanks for your advise. I did install the samsung modem driver and did reboot the PC before starting mirage updater..... but somehow turn that way.
I brought it from ebay, do you think it can still be warranty? anyways.. gotta try my luck.
thanks tho
I just contacted Canada's samsung service centre. They said They dont have this model here in Canada, so cannot fix my phone.
Please, anyone can give me a hand?
What about a hard reset? have you try it?
try to re load the rom.. i am using HH1 for phone and HH5 for the PDA... works good... with the russian ROM PU (if i am not wrong) i had to load few times as the process stopped at 80% or so... and u can load the ROM from this thread without loading the PU rom..
i have the same troubled too~~

Cash via PAYPAL if you help fix hp6815 deadboot with jtag !! uk.

Hi all,
I have a hp 6815 and i am desperate to fix it.
I had upgraded ROM a few times with sd card fine, then i went to change the rom again and i think i didn't wait long enough and messed up the booting. But problem now is it won't go into to boot loader mode at all, it is totally black with no power.
It has an orange light when charging, so i think the battery is ok.
But i am sure the boot loader is corrupted and it needs restoring with jtag.
I have connected it up with some make shift wires and entered the jflashmm what i have heard other people fix their dead boots. It would ask me first question what i answer then it goes to next question. What is binfile name, i think ! I put in the EBO etc and have tried various ways but it won't register any. I just need help with the commands. I have already copy and renamed file for EBO_a.nb0. I just need a little help, if i fix this with help i swear i will send the person who helps at least 20 uk pounds through paypal, I would be overjoyed !!
So someone with good jtag knowledge and ipaqs would be great.
Also another thing is i'm not sure what the ntrst connection is to on jtag. Is it connected to anything at all ? As the diagram on dead boots shows this but not seeming connected, am i right ?
Thankyou in advance
Please someone give a little help.
Hello,
Please someone help with this. Just need to know about jtag[ntrst] and all the commands i need to input to fix boatloader from the 1st to last.
If i get this info and fix it i will either pay some money or give my TUROK game to you what is boxed with key and manual ready for multiplayer action, atm i'm into gta4 so don't play turok anymore. But this is a solid unreal engine 3 game.

I guess ill try to help you,
Im going to ask you to try to "hard reset" your device...
I already googled it, and i found this Youtube Video
Tell me if that does anything....
If you still need assistance, then Private message me.
Thankyou, believe me though i have tried everything, no power only when charging. I have to fix this with jtag. Really all i need is commands from 1st to last.
Whoever can help with the right commands gets a game. Remember it is a ipaq 6815.
Does anyone know anyone with the knowledge.
I had before upgraded rom a few times with no worries and bricked it before but not where it has no boatloader.
I am pretty handy with flashing but need help with this.
Please people help a kind soul.
Thankyou
Someone must know about jtag.

Help! My LG KS20 is dead!
I have tried searching, but nothing came up.
Yesterday while flashing, it said something timeout (1st time the bar runs across)
Now, I cannot activate emergency mode. I cannot charge the phone. There is no response, no light. Charging the battery full has no effect. Taking the battery out has no effect too.
Is there any way to fix this? My warrenty expired just yesterday

Very strange problem!Maybe your battery is dead Take out the battery and connect the mobile with the pc.If nothing happens then it is not a battery problem.Have you tried a correct hard reset?By saying correct, I mean holding the 3 buttons for many time until the leds flash and then flash out.Then you must release the buttons.
Thanks ibanezman for your reply...
Nope, nothing. Battery is fully charged (I have an external LG charger that was given free).
Nothing happens when I remove the battery and connect to computer. I cannot do a hard reset, because there is no LG logo, and no lights. Not green, red, or blue.
I can't flash in emergency mode, because holding down Internet Explorer and Power gives nothing. No usual green light. Laptop doesn't detect anything. Nothing in device manager.
Today while going through the logs in the LGMDP folder I came across this.
<AppName>Log For Web DownLoad</AppName>
<TIMESTAMP>20090908235324</TIMESTAMP>
<Date>2009-09-08</Date>
<Time>23:53:24.-473</Time>
<IMEI></IMEI>
<TIMESTAMP>20090908235324</TIMESTAMP>
<RESULT>FAIL</RESULT>
Notice there's no IMEI number? Could this mean anything?

I do not think this has to do with IMEI.Maybe you have lost your IMEI in the flashing process.But I believe your phone is dead/bricked
I really cannot feagure out any other suggestions.Maybe you should take it to LG Service.

Bootloop after restart

Hey there
I'm new here and didn't know where I should cry about this problem.
I just dropped my phone and the battery popped out. Now I've got one of those "bootloops" I think you call them, that point where you get stuck at the LG logo blinking.
I think I got that bootloop because I modified a bit the "mixer_path.xml" to push my volume on the headset, if not, I don't know what happens. Now my question, what should I do? I don't mind if I have to do a hard reset, havn't got nothing important on the memory. But still, I can't do a hard reset with the hardware keys. Now my question, can I do something with that piece and a computer ? I read that you can "repair" it with LG PC Suite or something but I just can't find the button for repair . I can enter download mode if that's important to know but nevermind. Nothing else. Please help me asap.
Thank you
Greetings !
You softbricked it. Which variant is it? HERE is a guide for the Sprint version, but you must use the .dll and .tot for YOUR version of the phone.
sent from my LG G3
I've got a spanish one, unbranded, European common I think
