HELP

I have a xda IIs, and yesterday when i tried upgrading it to the new rom, from o2's website, there was a connection error during the upgrade (for no apparent reason), but now it is stuck in what looks like a bootloader so something, with just usb v2.07 on the screen.
So i was just wondering if anyone could help me, as i could really do with it working.
p.s. i didn't know if it's possible to load a live rom or anything from a sd card, like you would a computer.
plus i don't mind if it can't run windows as long as theres an operating system i could use on it, that would allow me to use the wifi.
Thanks

surly someone know something to do, Please!!!

Try putting it into bootloader .....then see if it connects
Tell us what you have already tried.

Thank you for your reply!!!
The story goes like this:
I had this wonderful rom, duttys, and when i saw that there is a greek one, although i heard a voice inside me trying to stop me from doing it, i installed it.
Then, all of a sudden i realised that I could not connect back to pc. The rom is not what i had expected I am afraid and i wanted to roll back. But, i can not make the connection. I blamed my pc at first, but the same happens wherever i try it. SO it has to be the rom.
I do not consider myself and expert at this, So this seems to be another problem for me. One has to learn from his mistakes i guess.
Now, I do not know how to do this "bootloader" you are suggesting.
These are my steps, apart from reading through the forum...

Activesync cutting out whilst flashing wm6.1 rom

I put the applock on, i reboot, i double click the exe to run the dos thing, i allow my fone to run spl something, i click centre button, it says run the ruu ex, I do, and active sync disconnects before I can do anything else...Error 260...i can wait an hr an nothing happens. I've soft-reset, hard-reset, followed and understood and read every instruction but I just cannot get it to upgrade. The phones unlocked, the apps are unlocked. I've tried it without redoing the applock exe. I'm stuck. Any advice before I call it a day and keep my greedy wanting nature under control. All help much appreciated.

.....let us know if you still have some problems after you read the STICKY, I'll be glad to help you

I tried with two of them but I cannot stop my activesync just disconnecting right when it tells me its going to start the update, then I get the error 260...you are not connected. then no matter how long I leave it it doesn't start. ive followed all the instructions to every detail. Im now completely bog-eyed n I cant concentrate anymore, so im leavin it till the morrow. THankx very...ill be back

active-sync problem
well, ive followed every single instance from all the options available and everything goes fine until it gets to the actual updating point and then active-sync cuts off,10 seconds later i get error 260 saying im not connected. Ive left it all alone to see if it will update as the usb cable is still attached but no. I havent had this problem with any other phone update or unlock or debranding. Ive noticed on google that others have the same problem and they were told to leave it running and it will continue to update but on all the options ive left it overnight and it hasnt updated and neither has theirs. All help stops after everyone else has done what ive done, its too near xmas to drown my sorrows but, thanks for help n have a lovely xmas n new year

When you press the center button and the screen turns white do you hear the chime windows make when a USB device is disconnected?

Well, actually when you flash your activesync shut offs but your USB connection stills active, so that's normal.
Did you sda unlock your phone before you flashed?. You should do this every time you flash (well that's why I do), also make sure you remove your sd card; because these can cause error messages while you flash.
Other option can be try another PC or reinstall activesync, sometimes my laptop gets crazy and I get multiple errors when I flash, but when I use my desktop flashing goes smooth

yes I sda unlocked every time....i only have a lappy....i remove my sd card...i will uninstall n reinstall active sync.....I'll check out if any of my daughters' friends have desktops to see if I can do it that way. I shall try all that over xmas n new year n ill let you know how I get on. Many Thanx....

Ok, I forgot to mention; if you have another USB cable try it also.
Hope that helps ..Merry Christmas and happy new year

is there no update on this situation? because i am currently attempting to flash a rom for my friends dash and i am having the same connection error problems. and she has a windows vista laptop. i am not sure if that is what the problem is. convinced its not the cord. during the update process it just disconnects once it gets to about 3 percent.

3% error solution. Also, make sure you access your PC as an administrator and disable any firewall

[Q] Defy keeps restarting after unlock the screen

hi guys,
I hope someone can help me.....
today I install some app to give extra animation and crap but after I ve done it the phone keeps restarting after I slide the srceen to unlock it.
I have done a hard reset formated the phone and cache and still the same,
I have also tried to flash it but RDS came back with " unable to retrieve info from INI file.
sim card is in but there is still "no service" on,
I ve looked through the forum but non of the posts seems to desrcibe my problem.
cheers,
p.s I forgot to add that my rom was 2.51 uk as far as I aware
regards,

hi,
the 'unable to retrieve ini file' could be because of your usb ports.
however,
if you go to recovery mode( hold vol- during startup then vol+ and vol- simultaneously when you see a little green man) you should be able to get a menu which will let you do a factory reset( clear data) which should make the phone work.
cheers

hi,
yes and I ve done it twice already and still rebboting after unlocking the screen
ane other ideas??
I ve treid to dowload rom but it wont extract and the other one saying that about ini file.
cheers,

hi again,
were you trying to install a flashlight fix zip btw before all this happened?
if so, the only option is a full flash.
try it with a different computer but i think at this moment rsdlite is the only hope.
i know because it has happened to me quite a lot.
cheers

hi,
I thinking the same, however, every rom I download doesnt work,
and now stupid question...where can I get a uk rom from??
cheers,

just check the android development section for the defy,
there are plenty of choices for a uk rom.
download one and flash it with rsdlite from a computer with usb 2.0 .
thats the cause of the ini error apparently.
good luck.

hi,
any link please??
I ve not been lazy its just I dowloaded two already and none of them work,
and now even RSD wont find the phone...just great saturday hahaha
cheers,

credit to fritolays.
go to the last link. CEE deblur< download that.
for rsdlite, keep trying, youll get there eventually.
thanks would be appreciated.
cheers

hi,
I will keep trying and if it wont help then I will have to go to t mobile and change my handset again,
Thanks a lot amansth
.....right guys please RSD saying couldnt retrieve values from INI file, I dont have access to any other PC so is thre any other way??
I ve got one txt file in the folder with firmware with this number in 09a6752e6119bb69c02d02f06a68d17e maybe that just need changing?? I dont want to mess about with it too much cos I m just a rookie
thanks,
...... Hi guys,
After a 6 hour fight I finally managed to flash my phone and it works, old RSD for some reason wouldnt support the phone so I got the new one and I could sleep much better
The only issue is that I liked 2.51, not necessarily the whole blur thing but I still think software looks much better and for example, mail box wont open, not the google one but the other that Ive added. Market place looks quite old compare to how it looked on 2.51, for eg the buttons for apps,games and apps look like big grey brick where in the other one there where nicely "implemented" into the market website.
however, I could not load 2.51 on my phone because it would stay on black screen with white LED on. I ve tried couple of times and always the same.
maybe I m doing something wrong?? what are those 2.51 boot only for?? I ve tried to put that in first then the firmware and still the same.
thanks all,

hi,
sadly, downgrade to 2.51 isnt possible because you upgraded to the froyo roms, the bootloader is newer so it is impossible to go back.
still, the froyo roms are generally better but somehow they seem laggy sometimes.
hopefully since motorola is pushing beta builds and the actual froyo release will come out around april- may you wont have to stay with the blocky icons for long.

[HELP] Lenovo S850 bootlooped...

Yep...you're seeing me again...with another phone...in a public thread (moderator please make a device page for this phone...)
oh wait..ANOTHER BOOTLOOPED PHONE(wasn't me, my friend's)
Oh hello!
Sooooo yeaaa cause I am a helpful person and I am the only one who understands how this Android tweakeroonie works, I am trying to help my friend's Lenovo S850 (SKU unknown cuz owner didn't remember lel...)
So the story begins...
This phone is rooted, and survived for some time and one day, the owner would like to try to flash Lollipop in his. Now I don't know WHICH Lollipop he was trying to flash (he himself is unclear, I maybe could re-trace the link of guide), but it's not CyanogenMod, because this device supports CyanogenMod 12.1. I am wondering to myself, "if you really need Lollipop, why don't you go Cyanogen?"
After clicks, he told me that he bootlooped his phone while trying to flash the ROM. But he has successfully installed TWRP (he said...not by my inspection). He said that he would able to boot once in the recovery and then...
BOOP
"The hell is going on? It's taking too long to start! NU UH I'M PANIC!":crying:
Me came in the way and try to save the day.....(not really)
So technical part..
As I am trying to resurrect the phone, I have the stock firmware + scatter, I have SPFlashTool, the phone in factory mode and a heavy duty data cable connected. While the loading of the scatter is a success, a popup saying "PMT has been changed, it must be downloaded". And I'm like " umm wat?". Techies, please if anybody can explain in detail what is that popup means, why is that happen. Googled "PMT error spflashtool" and found that I need to MAKE (yep make...I dunno code droid) a new scatter file specifically for that unit of phone. Well MTKDroidTools we go.....
And this is the point that I got stuck, while the SPFlashTool detects the phone, the MTKDroidTools doesn't.
"HOW ARE YOU NOT CONNECTED?!? I AM CONNECTED GADDAMIT! DONT YE HEARD THE 'DUN DUDUDUN DOON' SOUND?"
Help... I am out of wit to continue researching. It's midnight. I am sleepy so...
Please anybody is skilled enough to understand and try to tell me how to fix this annoying prob.
