Okay, obviously I was rooted. Everything was great. I went into CWM, when I was going to flash a simple script mod (which every phone can use) well I accidently clicked off into my SGII files (which of course was stupid of me) and it installed fluxii kernel for SGH-i777. (intern flashes a custom recovery for the xx tweaker that that particular kernel uses. Of course, I didn't even realize I had done it, just went to Reboot Now. Now, I've got no Download mode, no bootloader, no anything, just blackness, I feel as if there is a simple key process or way to somehow get it fixed so I can flash it back via ODIN, but with all the confusing button combo's and ideas I've found so far, and all the ' types of bricks ' I dont know the best route about doing this, whomever helps me get my phone unbricked/unsoftbricked/superbricked/cute bricked, which ever version (assuming its possible) I swear on my life I will mail them a 32GB HP touchpad.
(I have 3 and only need 2) so, I hope this in some way will get me an answer soon.
I cantbelieve I pulled a n00b. No more not moving data from SD cards for me ever again...
Thanks, and the sooner the better.
Mail me here, or gmail me ( [email protected]) or heck text me if you want (i have my SGII still) just message me priavtely for the number. Thanks you guys you're the best.

I would rccomend trying to use Odin to see if it recognizes your phone? You may have to get a USB jig to force it into download mode and you may be able to save it that way I'm pretty sure a jig would work

It might be worth a go man. I would reccomend having it plugged into a computer and keep trying to turn it on even if the screen doesn't turn on and see if Odin picks anything up. Its not going to hurt your device anymore :/ you could always go to a hardware store and buy a mini USB and a 300k resistor and trying to make a jig yourself if that unbrick doesn't work (which I don't think it will)

Fixed. I'll write up a XDA guide, and no I didnt use that silly guide. I used a trick the stupid guy at samsung tech support told me about something on the back of the phone will write up in a bit.
it involves a paperclip, and a hidden compartment behind somewhere where most would never dare stick anything, its rather a hidden reset button or something I wouldnt recommend it to anyone however...if someone finds themself in a bind id gladly help, but its that way or shipping it back if done wrong basically I just got lucky.

Hi there everybody, I've been having sudden Sleeps of Death, doing some research have found that may be sd card related, however nothing focused to our beloved T. After some time of inactivity phone won't come on after pressing power button to wake.
Anybody of you having this issue as well? Any advise?
I'm running timin8r stock Rom .233 along with its corresponding kernel, rooted and deodexed and a HP micro sd card, 32gb, class 10.
Thanks and happy holidays everyone!

I also have a 32GB microsd and haven't had any problems myself. Been on this ROM for a few days. It's been downloaded quite a few times and haven't had anyone else complain.
On stock kernel? If yes then sounds odd
Try a fresh install is all I can suggest or get a logcat

Ok guys, made a clean install from scratch yesterday and the problem is virtually gone, just one sod after a couple of hours of inactivity. However Media Server app is killing my battery, will not cease for hours consuming from 40 to 50%, doing some research they suggest changing sd card and empty it at all, which I've done unsuccessfully.
Could be somehow related? Is it just me having this weird behaviour?

That's expected behaviour on a clean install. Android needs several hours to build all databases. Including media database.

Well, it happened again today´s morning, I´m kind of frustrated here... when everything seemed to be running at last fine and smooth... So I ran the Repair Phone from the PC Companion which just installed the same version that I previously had, .233. And now the waiting.
My T is bootloader locked and no cpu manage apps.
Here a screenshot of the logcat from the aLogcat app just before the last crash.
Will update how is going after the companion repair, and if it continues then will be hardware related I think.
However any advice is always welcome, thanks!
EDIT: Same issue after Companion Phone Repair, and the same at night when entering deep sleep mode. So I've downloaded an app to prevent my T from going to deep sleep and seems to be working.
By the way wise guys any of you have a clue in how often or after how many minutes in lockscreen the phone will go to deep sleep? No info at all in the web and, baseband 33 is supposed to work fine in every network around the globe? I know of course they are location specific but can't find much about radios.
Thanks for helping!

I had some problems with my music database and had to clear the media storage app's database and then reboot the phone to rescan. When I did that the phone battery drained pretty fast for 30 mins or so and then settled down - and media server was shown by batt stats to have done most of the draining.
This might be linked to your problem. If your SD card has corruption on it then the media scanning may get part way through and get stuck, eventually causing a system issue that causes the SoD. It might not even be a corrupt file but some issue when it encounters a particular file due to a bug in the program.
My advice would be to backup card content, reformat and copy files back on slowly over a number of days to see if the SoD issue of happens after a particular file is copied onto the card.
Reformat is an important step here. If you empty your card and just copy the files back on it isn't a clean file system. Reformatting will give you a freshly initialised card to work from.
Thanks for the advise emuX, despite of have done this I could not get it to work. The SOD continued and every day it got worse. So I dropped my T to service via carrier. They held my device for a couple of days to find out that the hardware (just as I suspected) was the guilty department of these sod´s.
In fact they were not able to run a ftf or "flash cam" (never heard of that) since the hardware keys were not responding any more.
An exceptional case so far in the T but of course really annoying and disappointing.
They are to change my device as soon as they arrive, given they are sold out in my specific carrier store.
This could happen to any random device and there´s no software solution or walkthrough. If you have these symptoms do not hesitate to get an Exchange phone from your carrier. Hoping of course that will be the good one, just like me...
Flashing generics ftf´s, rooting, unlocking bootloader (officially done) etc, has nothing to do with this, it´s not somehow related and is not guilty of this bad. (Well, that said by the sony guy) Good luck with your device.
Happy holidays!

I have the same problem like you ....
Sometime my phone will not wake up and i nedd use vol. up + power ....
So your advice is to change phone ?
Hi everybody well... Again writing from my new T and guess what... The same issue again so dont really know what could be happening. From now I'll be looking from Sony Support advise since this is inaceptable indeed.
Have done nothing to my phone at all, no root, no mods, no sd, no nothing. Even running it with all the brand bloatware.
Let's see what happen to our device in the future.
Merry Christmas.

Hi, i dont have any adw launcher,any SD card.Nothing just plain system.. And guess what.1.time when this happend to me was after when i open the box with new phone unbox it ,charge battery, after that power on my device play with phone maybe 10 minutes (it was without sim card,without,sd card, just on wifi).After that i leaved new phone on the table maybe for 20 minutes and than i couldnt wake up my phone -just with volumeUP+power.
So I dont think so its problem with some app or launcher....i think i need to change present sony to another sony xperia t and i will see. I think its a hardware problem...
Then you really really have some bad luck mate. Hope your next XT goes better. I personally never had an sod. So musty be either an app or hardware. Maybe some carrier app? Don't know which carrier you are on, and which carrier any other user with sod has.

Hello again guys, updating this thread well... I´ve got to tell you, I´ve tried everything to live with this *** issue, with no need for this of course, and non of my "tricks" have given relief for it.
Installed wakelock apks to prevent this SOD or Sudden death, wathever... Obligate my T to stay awake by using EVERY SINGLE MINUTE doing whatever it took and usually didn´t know what to keep it that way.
Not to say I tried flashing ftf´s from here to there expecting that could be the expected medicine. Nothing worked.
So today I finally got an exchange phone from warranty at my carrier and got a SGS3, can´t be happier.
Despite of knowing some sIII have begun behaving bad as the T, my III doesn´t seem to match the faulty criteria and I´m enjoying a very reliable phone.
A blazzing fast, Bond deserved phone.
I noticed that this bug happens very rarely when I disable the wi-fi and normally it happens when I receive the notification of an upgrade from the Play Store.
While the wi-fi is enabled the SOD happens almost every 30 minutes.
Does it happens to somebody else?
Hi Guys

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..
I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly

So without further ado; I rooted her bricked her first by checkin out system tuner and seeing what would happen if I turned up a thing or two. When i woke in the morning jungle font stopped unexpectedly, so i pressed force close, it came back faster than i could pull my thumb away, after about a dozen or so times w/ the same result, I did what any sensible idiot comparable to uneducated stone would do and pulled the battery. She rebooted with no font. Factory reset, root again recover my beloved apps and data and then (again what any sensible idiot would and opened system tuner. in my defense, however i was only moving system files to sd not uninstalling them. 'ol thrill did not like that one bit and with a sudden burst of rage-full, maniacal, protest force closed files of all types, one super quickly right after another. it was a domino effect sort of thing. anyway, i tried the lg flash package steps several times to no avail, now it seems overwhelming. tomorrow i am dive right in to xda university deal i heard about, but in the mean time any help in getting my deeply missed thrill back on line would be appreciated so much more than most of you could imagine. i have a lot on plate and this couldn't have been a worse time for me kill my life line.

Actually my friend, I'm in my late thirties with two little boys. I'm a single dad, with zero presence from their biological co-founder. I'm a carpenter by trade, hence the cheap flip phones in the past. In addition to work and kids, I did start going to college full time (I'm in my second semester) for child psychology in order to better understand the difference between my youngest (4) who is developing typically and my oldest (7) who is autistic. In the middle of wrestling an already obese schedule, I am smack dab in the middle of fighting with the school district because they are (in my opinion based on my careful observation) stuck in the process of teaching autistic kids how to be more autistic rather than how to be "human" like most of the rest of us. To recover my boy from his public-school-bootloop seems to be as equally perplexing as my phone. A seventh grade education over twenty years ago only goes so far. So there it is, while I love to write, I am far from a frat boy, where they get laid in bed, I only lay in bed Embarrassing really, but my sacrifice is/will be the root of all of my boys smiles. I don't have the money nor the desire to buy a new phone. I love my thrill! It is imperative that I get it back online ASAP. Unfortunately often times a picture in crayon is what I need when it comes to some things. If you guys can't or won't help me get it going I figure it out, I always do. But no matter what, I will have my thrill. P.S. Mad props for all you guy that have put the effort into XDA University and the slang terms thread, I admire people who give up their time and energy just for the sake of sharing what they know, for us "noobs" that kind of generosity is the only way learn about such alien concepts and processes as these. Like I said "I'm no ordinary greenhorn" Thanks again in advance, time is ticking and I'm not using a pay phone and refuse to get a flipper! Gotta run, good day all!!!!!!

I followed the instructions from an optimums thread by dark lestat, i tried four times. but absolutely nothing happened. Norton was a problem, fixed that. then found out what a com port was, let me ask anyway, that refers to the USB port right, and not communication port like maybe through a my firewall? i haven't tried a different USB cable yet cause i just found out about it tonite while i was looking for some answers. do i do anything with the kidz file? i would rather have a different ROM, what is the recovery manager for? and one more clarification, how do I know that it is working at the last step when i put the bat back in and connect the USB to my lap top? will it vibrate or screen flash or something. I am going to try again tomorrow. i learned a lot i didn't know today from xda u, so I don't feel so lost. I can build a house ,but droid recovery is a whole ball game! Thanks again Bigtech.
another Q
Does it matter which kdz file I choose, if so Which one should I use? I ended up with the official gingerbread cause it was the only link that worked.
use either v30b kdz of v28b kdz. they're both ics, which is, i believe much better than gingerbread
Any word if they got rid of the ghost call problem? And I am very surprised that ATT still cares about this phone considering they discontinued it like 5 months after they started to sell it

I bought an HTC Desire 510 few months ago cause my Xperia ARC died (was the best phone I ever had).
Now I am very disappointed with the HTC 510, mainly cause of it's awful operating system bundled by google ALL OVER the place
The user interface is a one big disaster, so much annoying and unnecessary stuff... besides the annoying bloatware (parental control app? srsly?)
I really wanna root this phone and change it's OS to those similar of gingerbreed, cyanogen etc but I don't know how to do this with my current phone
and don't even know what custom operating systems are available for the model I have.
What annoys me about the user interface:
*Often lowers the earphone music volume without my permission then gives me this annoying warning that making it higher will damage my hearing - srsly?
*Screen tends to lower it's lighting and back again by itself while I use the phone
*A button at the bottom of the menu that looks like a "home logo" will open somekind of useless google page each time I drag that button up by mistake.
*Terrible and irremovable Gallery app, not to mention it displays images in uncomfortable way, it also features a slideshow which often plays automatically without me asking it to each time I enter a photo album.
*Poorly made irremovable alarm clock app
*Other forced google apps installed on my phone which i don't use and can't just get rid of
*Bad just bad option of organizing apps, well for me atleast, back on my Xperia ARC I used to organize my apps by "commonly used apps" feature, went great, here it's just wacky, it doesn't do it automatically after you set it to organize the following way. So I find myself surfing through all the useless apps to find the app I need at the app menu.
Can anyone give me guidance or recommendation for an alternative Operating System I could replace this horrific google product infecting my phone since I bought it?
I presume this phone would become amazing with a new custom OS, did anyone changed the OS on their HTC 510? if yes what you use and how is it?
Also I know to root this device you first need to unlock the bootloader, is there anything else important I need to know when rooting it?

Perhaps you should buy an iPhone.

Beggars can't be choosers. Of course this person is trying to be both.

Dude really. Maybe you should have checked out the forums of this model B4 you bought it. That being said, since you say you are unlocked and rooted then doing a quick search should get you everything you need to rid yourself of all that is bothering you. Depending on what you have and with whom there are some pretty good options out there to use. Check it out and start doing it.
Or you could just throw your phone in the lake, buy and Iphone and forget about it. Bam!

I actually planned to buy Galaxy 3, heard it was good but also had slow loading problems, then I was offered an alternative of this HTC for the same price and faster working system. It was a spontaneous buy.
And I thought buying an Iphone but changed my mind cause of the "itunes" thing.

Ok, how do I deal with the "menu" thing where I want to authomatically always to arrange my icons by last used but cant right now?
I tried themes, but those are so intrusive and full of advertising, well those I tried so far.. (if there are any good ones to recommend I'd give a try) and how about disabling the annoying requests of updates I don't even need? <--(forgot to mention this issue) And how about issues 1-3 I mentioned? any idea how i deal with those then? You talk as if it's so easy, show me then.
About the lake.. better to throw to those who came up with this terrible phone idea

All I can say (and I never said it was easy) is for you to subscribe to all of the HTC 510 Forums and start reading thru the threads. In your case, the most helpful one being this one..."Help & Troubleshooting" if you can not find answers to your particular questions then I would assume that means we just aren't there yet. This is a pretty new device after all. I wouldnt know about themes being I am on custom ROM and that is not an option. You should maybe go for the Unlock and root your phone method. Try out some of the ROMs available. I believe that will alleviate many of your issues since the stock ROM that came with these units have multiple issues. Many of them are the same ones you are experiencing. I wish you well and Read, Read, Read.
Good Luck

You should definitely read through the forums if you haven't so far. I have read/skimmed every thread here about our phone and I almost have no questions or concerns except for some ideas for a couple of issues that haven't been brought up yet or just not yet done.
I only use Sense Home or Dodol Launcher and they both don't have the option to sort by last used, check out Nova, Apex, or some other launcher.
As far as the update is concerned, you can follow this post by LarryBoyG, if you plan to stay on stock. I'm sure a custom ROM will be built that includes the update, unless everyone just wants to wait for Lollipop.
