HELP... I'm having problem with my dopod 838pro :(

I bought this phone couple of days ago then realized that the ROM is very unstable(It's using some 'Windows mobile Tai edition'), and I've been searching everywhere for a solution to changing the rom to something else. Now the biggest problem is I'm unable to connect my phone to my computer, as my WMDC seems unable to detect the connection. I tried all the methods I can find on the web to resolve the connection problem, including running bootloader and install driver, thereafter reconnecting, but it didn't work. I tried the methods in wiki on using SD card to flash the ROM (I was trying the CRCs Release 13.3), but failed as well, (the bootloader screen seems to be totally different from the screenshot... Here is a screenshot of my bootloader). Hope somebody can help me THANKS!!!

Since you already have Hard SPL, I suggest flashing your phone with a stock ROM first (I use the AT&T stripped ROM) then after an hour you can flash again to your desired ROM.
Use the microSD card flash method since this is the safest, I'm pretty sure this will work.
The microSD card should be 2gig or less, then format it to FAT32.
Copy the RUU_signed.nbh file to the microSD and rename it to HERMIMG.nbh (not HERMING, I got this wrong when I tried it the first time). This should be the only file in your card.
Insert card to your phone then press power button on the right and OK button on the left then reset your phone, this will go to bootloader then just wait for the prompts (It will ask you to press power button, this will start the update and when it completes you need to soft reset the phone).
By the way make sure your battery is full before flashing, you don't want your phone to die in the middle of flashing.

[Q] Bootloader corrupt WTF?

Sorry for my enthusiasm, but here is my problem:
I want to install Android Revolution on my HTC DHD.
I've done all these steps:
- Successfully created a GoldCard
- Successfully dowgraded from 2.3.3 to 1.32
- Successfully permrooted via Visionary+
- Successfully Radio S-OFFed, SuperCID + SimUnlock via this tool
- Now failed on ENG S-OFF via this tool

I opened it as Admin, I am on a Radio-S-OFFed and Permrooted Device with Software <1.7x, I checked "Yes, I have Radio-S-OFF" (or how it was called), I connected my phone via charge only, I enabled USB Debugging, I have all adb drivers (HTC sync), I accepted the superuser request on my phone and I so I have done EVERYTHING mentioned in the threads, which I Have read 2 times before doing it, but now this stupid error and I don't know how to proceed.
I hope you guys can help me. I did of course not reboot my phone, and I am continuosly charging it right now to prevent running out of battery.
EDIT UPDATE: I tried the tool now without the box checked, gives me "connection error" (yes I again accepted superuser request)

Ok, ok nevermind guys, figured it out myself:
Thanks to ratman33 and myself for trying out weird thingds

I had the same error and nearly crapped my pants thinking I bricked my phone. Its not really a big problem. Go to Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage apps and clear the data from Superuser. Reconnect your phone making sure you're on charge only, usb debugging. Run the Eng S-off tool and watch your phone as it attemps to push the data. Superuser should pop up asking to let the Eng tool have privs. Click allow and it should work fine. CWM has been working great for me ever since!

But this alone did not work for me. I needed to go to Menu>Settings>Applications and then check "Fastboot" so that it's enabled. Then disconnect your phone from the PC and WAIT min. 5 seconds. Then connect it again and run the tool, and it gives you success message!
But: Can I now be sure everything went right?

It should be. I guess there is only one way to find out, reboot in bootloader and see the results.

or you could have tried with your Wi-fi turned on and connected to a network.....that's the way it worked for me

Bricked LG G3 - Need help!

Hi guys, I recently decided that i would root my phone and try and install cyanogenmod (new to me) as my phone seemed quite sluggish with LG's own bloatware on it. I followed the steps from LGG3ROOT and everything seemed to work well, and at the last stage when it asked me to then remove my battery and restart the phone... the phone just stayed on the lg page - never logging into the android system.
Ive tried to plug the device into multiple machines and each time the machines have issues with the device and it says the device has issue starting (10).
Im not really sure what else i can do as the phone seems bricked. Any help would be very much appreciated as i need access to the phone and i assume the warranty is now void.
Thanks in advance.

can you post
the guide that you used to root
your phone variant
and whether it boots into download mode
what firmware version you were running

the guide i followed was this (exactly) http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-lg-g-flex-2-g2-g3-on-lollipop/
i have a UK D855
I can get it to download mode (but cant get to recovery with the power and down buttons)
unsure exactly which firmware, i hadn't played around with the phone until this happened.
when i let the phone get stuck on the lg page the windows pc seems to recognise the device, if i put it in download mode it comes up with the device error that it is there but cannot be run.
Thanks.

You probably have either
1) A bad usb cable
2) Or your drivers arent properly installed
You are plugging it into a USB2.0 port right?

I installed the drivers from the universal LG driver tool from their site, it worked find with the phone (or so it showed) before this issue, i've also tried a different cable and a different machine for it to come up with that same driver problem (10). Ive also tried uninstalling the driver software and reinstalling, is there a way to get rid of all traces of the bad drivers? thanks again for replying

Working Fine
This is when the device isn't put into download mode and instead is left to try and boot (where it is stuck on the LG 'life's good' page).

Any idea guys? Im having no luck with any info im getting online at the moment and i'm really in need of this phone to work.
Thanks in advance.

Can you expand the "android device" section.
See if it's android adb

sorry, i think i quite understand. Which part should i expand on?
Thanks

In
device manager, look up Android device.

Update
The phone will now only go straight to firmware update and will never go or show the download mode as it has before. This is causing my LG Flash Tool to come up with 'cant change to download mode' and im not sure why or how this has happened.

The phone is now appearing fine on the device list. Its just the last of download mode. Is there a way to force it in cmd?

Please some screenshot again. The one I linked would be fine for adb

I see you can boot on download mode, so you can restore your G3 by applying a kdz firmware with flashtool2014: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785089
On download mode the G3 is recognized only in ports (com&lpt)

Help! I soft bricked my Pumpkin head unit and need help fixing it!!!

I have a pumpkin rk3188, 2gb ram, 32gb nand, 7" head unit (http://www.autopumpkin.com/car-dvd-...-gps-obd2-wifi-3g-steering-wheel-control.html) and I tried to get @Malaysk rom on it, but it wouldn't let me into bootloader or recovery no matter what I did, even with root bootloader just rebooted system and recovery went to recovery but just ran a factory reset script without giving me any options. So I tried to flash a factory image using the gps sd and naming it update.img, now the boot logo is different and it's stuck in a boot loop and I still can't get into bootloader or recovery. And I've tried to put another update.img on the sd card, but it does nothing. Is there anything I can do or am I sol?

I did the alt prtscr I trick with a USB keyboard plugged in n seem to have gotten to some menu but it's off the screen for some reason. I can see the edge of a highlight bar that I can move with the arrows up n down, n a thin line at the end of the list, whatever the list says idk. There's 7 options tho, it seems like the first attempts to boot, the second n third do something bit idk what, n the rest just return to this menu. It's orange btw. I'm going to upload pics of what I see. Can anyone help me figure out what this menu is n if I can use it to fix me unit? Thx!

I GOT IT!!!! I got it back up n running the pumpkin firmware!!! Idk about u man, but I figured out/git lucky with the orange recovery or bootloader I had n couldn't see the writing. I got the official firmware from pumpkin for this unit n downloaded the right mcu img, put them both on the sd card n put it into the GPS slot, then used the keyboard to get to the orange screen n the option that worked was the 3rd one down. It took a while, 15-20 minutes of nothing but a black screen, but it finally came back up with the boot logos. It was stuck at the boot logos again so I reset n did the alt prtscr I trick again to get to recovery again n it wiped n reinstalled the img n bam it worked! Slow first load but it worked! Let me know if u need the files or help.

I've been fighting the same problems. I would love the files too. Which mcu img did you use.

For my pumpkin unit it's a bin file, they call it project-car.bin. There's a mcu updater that uses bin files in the settings. The stock recovery doesn't recognize mcu.img sadly. I uploaded the project-car.bin here (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2T5FQZ-WJDQS3hXVFFFTnIwaGc/view?usp=drivesdk) and you can get the stock rom from pumpkin here (https://mega.nz/#!lc9HAbLK!nAIsEvYnSwqCV47vCmMRKBVivygxaJbGD3KPV0pxvZ8)

They same thing happened here too. Just a boot loop and no way to get into recovery with the buttons.
Could you please tell how the mentioned trick works?
alt prtscr I trick with a USB keyboard

Thank you very much in advance!

Could you please tell how the mentioned trick works?
Use a USB keyboard attached to the head unit's USB port. Either port should work. After powering the HU or resetting, press and hold the alt and prtscr keys, then press and release the "i" key. It should then boot into recovery. If not, repeat.

Hello， can you tell me what can bus options you have in factory settings. Mine have only BMW 1，2，3，4 . no another car. And reverse camera is to black.
Thank you.

Pixel 2 XL (rooted) bootlooping to TEAMWIN splash after factory reset

I am helping someone with this phone, so I don't have all the details, but I know the phone was rooted and most likely it was running stock Android 10. It had been working fine until a factory reset (from Android settings I am assuming) was done on it.
1. Now when it turned on, it displays the "Bootloader unlocked" warning:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. After the message, it goes to the Google logo for a second and then to the TEAMWIN splash screen, and it just stays there. I have to long-press the power button to power it off.
3. I can get into the bootloader using the power and volume-down keys, and the "Barcodes", "Restart bootloader" and "Power off" option work, but "Start" and "Recovery mode" just take me back to step 1 and then 2.
So, I cannot get into "Recovery mode". I have also connected the phone to my pc (Ubuntu), but the OS does not detect it, so I cannot use fastboot either.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

If you cant connect to it via fastboot while its in bootloader mode things are grim, thats your best bet at fixing it...
Connect to PC and flash the Android 10 stock ROM by running flash-all.bat while phone is at bootloader
Without editing the flash-all.bat file to remove the -w flashing stock ROM will format user data
Thats it
The state of the phone in the pic does not inspire confidence....
Im starting to think the two things are related....

After connecting a working and identical phone to my PC, I found out that the reason my PC didn't detect this phone was that the USB port on phone was dirty and the connector didn't go all the way in.
After I cleaned the USB port I was able to flash the stock ROM to it. I was getting an error mid-way through, so I removed the "-w" as per your advice, tried again and it worked. The phone works now. Thank you 73sydenay!
