The OTA update to Froyo seems to have bricked my (Sprint) Sanyo Zio.
I can only get to fastboot - no regular boot whatsoever.
Factory reset does not help. "Modem Download Mode" does not help.
I'm thinking that, from fastboot, I can just re-flash the original image, right?
Does anyone have this image?
We'll that depends on which image is borked really.
I think you'd be better off taking your phone into sprint and having them fix it.
I'd send you my cricket images, but I'm sure they will not work without major problems.

Sadness
Well, my carrier is actually Credo Mobile, not Sprint, although they use Sprint hardware and network connections.
I called them and it didn't seem promising. They are supposed to call me back tomorrow - on what phone I'm not sure.
I'm still really hoping that somebody here has the image files for me to flash. I can't believe they aren't provided by the manufacturer or the carrier or somebody.
You might be out of luck. If you know anything about how to use Modem Download Mode. I'm sure you could switch to CricKet and they could do the flash in store.

Modem Download Mode does nothing on Credo / Sprint
I tried Modem download mode. The progress bar makes its way up to 100, then the phone reboots with the same problem.
My assumption is that this mode just doesn't do anything on Sprint.

If you're trying to use a cricket rom on a sprint phone it won't work m8.
I've tried to use sprint's old 2.1 images on my cricket phone to no avail

There is a sprint zio forum here at xda and perhaps there is a dumped 2.1 stock rom available or you could Google for one.
I'm quite sure that there are tools available on the net to reflash to 2.1.
Sprint forum?
I can't seem to find the sprint forum or the image file, google as I may.
Can you throw me a link to the sprint forum?

Thanks! can I manually push the system.img file through fastboot? My phone turns on and boots up but everything is blank with a dim light.
You should be able to yes, but to avoid system errors I would use cwm to restore.
Just unzip the file to "/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/" and choose restore from cwm.

I updated the phone with the 2.000CR.5_HW0104.msi utility but it still stuck at the Kyocera screen.
I got it back up and running. I used clockwork from your other thread and wiped everything and the phone booted up. Thanks a lot.
Just so you know that Microsoft updater is for cricket only. M6000 not SCP-860

Good stuff. Glad we could help.
My buddy, has an OG Droid. It's a 'spare' phone and not activated...its mostly used as a web browsing (wifi) device. Well, I rooted it for him and got him a root-enabled application remover...well, he 'accidentally' removed dialer.apk. He is not sure what version of android he was on, but I assume it was 2.2 (the latest official firmware).
Can someone either a) post a version or dialer.apk or let me know where I can find it so I can walk him through putting that back on the phone by way of adb. Or b) let me know what I can do to help him with this. He told me he did do a hardware reset, but it made no difference, dialer.apk is still missing.
Now I'm not exactly sure he did a true hardware reset/recovery.
Any ideas? suggestions?
Thanks in advance....
Paul

Maybe you have to rename it - it's from an european version of Cynogen Mod 6 - but I suppose it should work if you put it into /system/app directory

Hi, I am the dumb friend that has made a fatal mistake. I was trying to strip my Android of unwanted apps so I could take out my memory card and use it elsewhere. When I was doing this I accidentally deleted dialer. Now when I turn turn on phone a message comes up and tells me dialer is not working and thus I choose force close. Well the problem is this message locks up my phone as its continuously comes back.
I have tried hard reset and this did not work. I also was not paying attention so I did not backup Dialer either
Any and all help is much appreciated for this noob.

If you let me know which sbf you are using, i can extract it for you. btw, is there a dialer.apk in droid? Because the milestone only has Contacts.apk and Phone.apk. I thought dialer.apk was there only in motoblur devices. OG Droid is not one of them.
IF you dont know which rom you are running on your phone, just go to Settings->About Phone, scroll down to the bottom and post a screenshot of your screen.
Update : I just downloaded and unpacked the original Verizon Droid 2.2 sbf from here and i can confirm that there is no dialer.apk in there. Also it is odexed. You are not running the official 2.2 update.
Hello silshen, and than you for taking time out to try to help me.
When I turn on this droid the exact message I get is
! Sorry!
The application Dialer (process

stopped unexpectedly.Please
try again
Force Close
I cannot get any further into my droid now. I force close then this message instantly reappears. I downloaded the link you have posted (ty). Now If I might ask, how would I go about reinstalling 2.2 on this droid? I have 0 experience at
this. Do I need a program on my computer to install?

You have the following options.
You can flash the official sbf using rsdlite.
If you have installed clockworkmod recovery, I can make a flashable update for you.
You can use rootexplorer to copy the contacts and phone apps to your system folder.
You can use adb to push the apps to system partition.
Best option is to flash sbf. You can then root your phone using z4root/universal androot or superoneclick root. Then install rom manager and then flash whatever custom rom you want.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Use the attached guide to flash the official 2.2 sbf if your phone is a verizon droid. Follow procedure and please note that all risk that comes with this is yours. If you follow procedure, you shouldn't have any problems.
I'm not to worried about contacts or apps because this is my 'gaming' droid.Even though the Ram(if that is what it is called) is a bit small and can not run every game.Atm I have downloaded rsdlite 4.5.3 and will try to begin to 'flash' this droid. This droid was rooted before if that is any help.

You will lose root when you flash the sbf. Root the phone using the method i told you or get your friend to help you out again.

3. Copy "Dialer.apk and Dialer.odex File.
4. Paste it in \system\priv-app on your android phone.
5. Press and hold Dialer.apk and click properties.
6. Uncheck all boxes except read only.
7. Click OK and Reboot.

You will want to re-bloat your phone before updating or it will fail. Root will be lost but 1-click root still works on the update.

I tried checking, and get the message "Check for update is not available at this time. Try again later."
It seems something is definitely up, as normally I would just receive a message that my system is up to date.

Assuming you did not remove any stock apps besides the two Gameloft demos and just froze the apps using Titanium:
1. Unfreeze the apps using batch mode in Titanium
2. Install the update
3. Reroot using the one click method. I unfroze and updated at work and now just finished rooting again.
Yeah it's random. Have two non-rooted D3's one of them got pushed the update and the other one is stuck checking for the update. Came here to see what was up.
Got the ota update this morning on my stock D3. Downloaded and installed and the install failed and then the home screen came up but with no 3G connection. Pulled the battery and nothing happened. Called Verizon and they had me pull the battery and then do a hard reset. Still no 3G connection. Got Motorola on the phone and they had me do a manual reset, but still no 3G connection. Verizon is sending me a replacement phone overnight.
Fail. Lol

I unfroze the apps before trying. Nothing was previously removed. Anything that was frozen has unfrozen properly.
EDIT: Found the reason for the message: Social applications was set to "sync over wifi only" which was causing the message. Now I get the "checking for available update. Please wait..." and it's been going about 3 minutes so far, no update found. Does not look like data is being sent/received while it's checking, either.
So I got a lg revolution off of craigslist. The phone says its in test mode, and has the lg hidden menu enabled. I can not mount it to the computer because of this. It also charges slow as crap, like really slow. The phone on Verizons end is seen as a non verizon device for some reason. Called lg and they said I need to send it in and they will fix it for 40 to 100 dollars. Anyone have any idea how to get it out of test mode. Please help.

Try powering it off, press and hold volume up (not down like recovery), press and hold the power button. Continue to hold both and hopefully it will enter download mode. Once there make sure you have proper drivers installed, and try to push zv7 with lgnspt.

That's not good, maybe try a new download. Which firmware are you flashing? MI1 or MI9?
That's actually what happened when I tried to root. It would sit forever and fail due to a timeout. What I did is after the failure..I left the phone in dl mode and connected and closed the odin..then relaunched odin and it worked the second time. That's my experience and your mileage may vary..

Yes it happened to me too. I just figured it was my crappy computer so I continued to try and after the 4th try I was able to achieve root status. Like a previous commenter suggested, it's a timed out issue.
Yea. I must have tried a dozen times a dozen different ways and I was stuck. I just said eff it and got a new phone. Debating if I want to try again, but I don't feel like potentially going thru the same heart ache. Really the only reason I care to root this phone is to get rid of those damn bloat ware apps; especially My Magazine.

Just went thru this on my Note 3 - chances are youre using a vm on a mac arent you?
Make sure you use a dedicated *windows* machine and not a vm (or at lest not a fusion VM) That was my issue, I havent tried parallels. I grabbed a dedicated win 7 machine and it works perfectly.
I was going to return it of that failed, which luckily it didnt.
