NAV-U50 how to restore the OS

Hello,
i have accidentally deleted the wrong folder on my GPS and now i can not boot it anymore.
hardware details:
Sony NV-U50
without SD card slot.
what i have done
originally this device has the sony nav-u navigation software installed running on windows CE....
i have found here in the forum and other forums some posts on how connect the device to my pc and get the igo8 running on it.
so after doing all the procedure i got igo8.3 to run on that device.
but i had to manually start it via total commander.
so i have deleted the contend from the nav-u folder and replaced it with the igo folder contend... and now the device does not boot anymore :-(
after the sony splash screen i get a picture with "INSTALL" text.
before i did all this i have done a backup from the folder but now is the question how do i get it back on the device? i can not connect it back to my pc... it does not get to the sync mode anymore...
any advice would be helpful and would save me from buying a new device.
thank you very much.
also i have opened the device to search for a flash card or something....
i could not find any storage card :-(

and i did not receive an answer.

Hello Dear XDA Members,
I need some help with syncronizing my Phone Contacts To Gmail.
Im not a Newb User At Galaxy And Tried Many Methods.

*When Im Importing The File to Gmail Most Contacts Are Shown On the phone without the phone number.
*Ive Tried To Create A New File Via Excel Using The Following Headliners:
First Name Last Name Phone Number 1 Mobile Number And nothing ive tried didnt work.
Contacts Are Agian Shown Without Numbers Or Numbers Show In "Notes" And Its Not Possible To Call.
*Ive Tried Also To Mark Only The "Phone Cotacts" And Export It To SD Card, But Its Making Me a File with 1453Contacts (I have only 180 On My Original List, Only 10% Of them has 2Numbers Or More.) (i have on my phone display total of 180contacts and my sim has 330contacts but its not marked.)
And Than When I Reload The File From SD Card To Gmail Trough The Phone, It Gives Me Many DOUBLES, Missing Numbers Etc...
Ive Been Tring To Do That All Day Long And Just Cant Find The Solution.
Can Anyone Help Me?! Please :]
Thank You Very Much Guys

Try this http://www.fjsoft.at/en/ (It's free) and use kies only for rom updating (only thing it can do properly )
Enjoy.

Even I am in need of managing my contacts & wondering what work flow should I adopt so all gets sync with phone & gmail., I tried MyPhoneExplorer its a good software I tried connecting my samsung galaxy I9003 but it doesn't work as yet with this new model, though it supports I9000.
Kies I find useless except the samsung official stuff updating,

MyphoneExplorer should work with your I9003 too, try the uninstall/reinstall process.

uninstall/reinstall the phone/modem driver or MyphoneExplorer?
I wish it connects with I9003, but it says "connection to phone could not be established, no device attached to usb".
I am connecting the phone to LCD monitor usb hub not to the rear usb ports, could that be an issue?

MyphoneExplorer of course ^^ (on your PC), check if the client part is installed on your SGS too.
About the Hub, yes it can be a problem.

didn't understand this part, what does CLIENT mean?

The software work as a client side (app on your sgs) / server side (app on your PC), in order to comunicate and synchronize, so when you install PhoneExplorer on your PC it install an APP on your SGS. Just uninstall/reinstall it on your PC and it'll push it automaticaly on your phone.

Oh I didn't connect the phone while I installed the MyPhoneExplorer that could be the reason.
Let me try this.

Make sure the debug mode is checked too (Settings -> applications -> devlopment -> USB Debuging)

Ok Thanks that finally solved the problem.
(it created few more problems while installing & showed a failed driver) but it took some time over 5-7 mins to initialize the modem & then showed it connected.
My phone explorer is great in terms of feature you can dial via computer receive calls via computer, send & receve sms via computer, edit/add contacts much better to do on computer than on small keyboard.

Make sure kies is not running in background process and try it with the stock USB cable directly connected on the PC (maybe a hub issue).

Ok all problem solved now,
do I need to switch off debugg usb settings again when I need kies, its not connecting with kies now or is that background service of kies (which I killed) is mandatory to connect with kies?

Yes disable the "debug mode" when you need kies again.

Install Kies and latest updates of Kies.

Thanks guys, but I already switched off debugging mode AND install the latest Kies. Nothing works. The computer detects the mobile, and those folders are there. But those folders are empty. If I were to trasnfer songs into my galaxy note, I have to bluetooth them.

Did you have phone plugged in while installing Kies?
Also, right click My Computer. Properties. Device Manager. Do you see missing drivers flagged? If Kies is installed maybe try manually pointing that driver to Kies folder to see if it finds a driver.
Try rebooting PC with phone connected? I had similar issue with another phone.

Thanks a lot. But it still doesn't work. I downloaded CDC_serial and installed it but it still won't work. Help!
Sometimes it says "MTP" not working and sometimes "bluetooth periperal" not working. And sometimes it works, but the files inside are empty. It worked before. And one day it just stopped working. Is it because of applications I downloaded?
Thanks guys.

Uninstall Kies and the drivers you installed and try re-installing them. The title is misleading. Your USB is indeed working, just that the PC is not detecting the same. are you on GB or ICS?

I don't quite understand, when you want to transfer something TO these folders, why do you care if they are empty NOW ?

It not solution
File expert would be better option than bluetooth. transfers over network.Just tempory fix till you get it sorted.

really sorry for the misleading title. Yes, the USB is working but the files are empty. When I use paste songs into my Music folder, they won't allow me. I tried using Kies, and the same thing. It says "Copying Item" forever. The Music folder of my phone shown in the computer is empty, but the songs are actually in my phone. They're playable.
Really wanna solve this problem because I have a lot of photos needed to be transfered. Thanks a lot again guys!

Those of us running early ICS Roms have the same problem, USB/PC connectivity disabled. Downloading Droid Explorer was more than satisfactory workaround for me.
You install it on your PC, start it, connect your phone to PC, and DE immediately sees all your partitions, and allows you to shuttle files from PC to your phone and back.
This program is free, BTW.

I'm still using GB but I heard that this phone can be upgraded to ICS in.. i dont know when. Haven't heard the news yet. Is Droid Explorer available for GB? If I can find an alternative route to transfer files easy like copy and paste, that will be fine. But still.. it bugs me that I can't seem to fix this USB problem.

I just downloaded droid explorer. And when I go in, there are 0 files in there. "phone icon" > phone's name > 0 objects. lol. I have no idea what is wrong with the phone.
Was thinking of just buying a SD card.

Will factory data reset solve this problem?

I have exactly the same problem with my Galaxy Note. Nothing seems to help and I'm really pissed off One evening I checked for software updates and it found one. It was about 72 mb and it took quite a while to install. And I think that was the day when my USB stopped responding.

can't access storage mode through PC

Hey Guys, I came into a problem.
Everytime I connect my s6 to my PC it opens autorun and asks me if I want to run Verizon mobileL. I try to switch the phone to Media through The scroll down menu, but my pc doesn't ask me to access my phone's storage, and I already have installed the drivers as well. any help on what i can do?

when this happens to me i usually unplug/plug then choose to open in explorer then it appears on My Computer but that Verizon part is bothersome

yea it is bothersome, but I already tried opening it through explorer. I tried to see if it would go under my pc but it's not there. My phone seems to be under devices and printers but I can't seem to access it, and it's driving me crazy as I'm trying to put in folders in my device
