this was the cmd
sudo mount-o loop filename.rfs/home/user/downloads (extracts to downloads)
while executing i got an error i cudnt solve.
sudo: mount-o: command not found
Googling didnt help. also my linux ubunto is updated.
I know there are applications fr this in windows bt i use linux.
I m trying to create a stock based rom for mini. Its my first attempt.
need help.:| Also there is any othr way to extract these files then please let me know.
Sorry if i posted in wrong section.. m new here have no idea whom to ask and where.

you have written "mount-o" which is totally wrong this should be "mount -o"
I think you didn't put space between command and option, and system took it as other command

I'm trying to re-flash with SD card method (extract nbh file and rename to TRINING.nbh and put to te SD card and start manual bootloader) NOT ALLOW message appears on the upper line.
My device SPL version is 1.05. How can i rescue my trinity?
Thanks in advance...

I am trying to use the splxploit, but am not at all familiar with Linux. Could do with a few pointers ....
I am using a Live CD of Knoppix on my windows PC. It appears to run very well, and seems to have gcc installed already as default.
What I did was unzip the splxploit.c file to the desktop and then went to the run command and typed "gcc splxploit.c -o splxploit" a console popped up, but gave a message saying gcc : couldn't find file or directory". I tried various combinations e.g "gcc home/knoppix/Desktop splxploit.c -o splxploit" but just couldn't get it to work. I think I am just telling the gcc program to look in the wrong place.
ANy help would be appreciated !!

Run the setup dcs in the Android ask folder and make sure you do it as admin in Vista and 7. You'll probably have to force http in options, most people do.

[Q] Help! LG PHOENIX....phone only goes into CWR

I recently purchased an LG Phoenix by At&t, the problem I have is that I cannot leave ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
I rooted it, restarted in recovery. and everything worked fine. I then upgraded my firmware, not sure what version though.. I backed up my phone before I upgraded into the new firmware. I then backedup my phone because it rebooted into recovery. Now everytime it boots it goes straight to Clockwork and I cant get out of it. I restored to my previous restore and it still doesn't work. What could I do? Should I install cwr 3? I read that cwr 5 has bugs and is known to brick phones..
Edit: Also the phone without the sd card still boots into clockworkmod menu
I have a ROM(Phoenix ULTIMATE) I'd like to flash but I'm not sure if I should right now considering I'm stuck at this menu.
Info- in my restores It says;
2011-10-04.21.37.48/
2011-10-04.21.56.13/
I'v tried both.
Another edit with potentially important info getting an error stating;
E: bad boot message "recovery"
Sorry If this is a n00b post.. I'm in sort of a rush because I'm moving in a few hours!
Edit; tried flashing the phoenix, didnt work.
installation was aborted
said i needed to switch to Edify scripting, and amend scripting is no longer supported.
What could I flash too to fix this, please help. I don't care if I lose data. Just need my phone back soon.
I have android SDK.
I was reading up on http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517874 here
Would I be-able to push somesort of boot file or firmware to my phone? Or something in that manner?
THIS:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash userdata data.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Seems to be perfect for what I should try, where could I get the stock imgs for my phone? (p505)
I moved this here temporarily for you to be assisted...after that it will be moved beck to the right forum
Good luck!!

"Installed Android SDK Platform-tools, revision 7"
Still installing a bunch of other things though..
"Downloading SDK Platform Android 3.2, API 13, revision 1"
Probably won't be done till tomorrow, horrible internet.

All you need now is platform-tools . The rest can be cancelled .
Use cmd (best if used with administrative rights) to navigate to the Android SDK folder , then to platform-tools .
Once you get there , connect your phone through USB then don't touch it .
In cmd , type:
abd shell
su
reboot bootloader

How would I use the cmd to navigate to the SDK folder?
I see the cmd, I also see a window called Android SDK and AVD manager, What now?

I opened the cmd, I'm not really suer where I installed SDK but I'm pretty sure it was c:\program files\android\android-sdk\tools
That seemed to work, whenever i type adb shell it says abd is not recognized as an internal or external command, program or batch.
I need more detail because I'm a noob. :/

EDIT: GOTIT! got the dir, i typed adb and it says device not found should i connect my phone correct?
Edit: okay,i did that, it just rebooted my phone and it went back into the CWR.. :c wut now?
Are you able to try and boot into bootloader? Try that. Also, try and flash a new ROM in recovery, test to see if it may be the ROM. Don't be afraid to backup again, you can always access the backups based on date.

What's bootloader?
I tried to flash my backups before the firmware update and it didn't work, I also can't find any wp505 roms.. I found a few but they wont help in my situation. Do you know any? My rom is stock as I only rooted and got stuck in cwr.
Thanks!
EDIT: I did do that adb shell, reboot bootloader, didnt work.

First off, not to lecture you...but you definitely should look into these kind of things before flashing a ROM.
I haven't looked at the ROMs so I'm not sure. But whatever fancies you, it's just to troubleshoot the problem. The problem itself may actually be the recovery. Do you know how to do logcats in ADB? Try and do a logcat and boot up your device while connected to ADB.
So go "adb logcat". This should show you exactly what your device is doing. When it runs and goes straight to recovery paste all that information into a .txt document and upload it onto xda so others can take a look.
I'll try and help more tomorrow but I have to get some rest. Good luck on getting this fixed.

[Q] Phone cannot root second time!!!

Hello guys,
I have serious problem with my Samsung Galaxy Mini. I rooted the phone with Root_Exploit_OneClick and everything went fine. Then I installed a bad ,corrupted custom Rom and the phone was not working properly,(white screen everytime i was pressing the power button)..
With Odin if I remember well , I flashed the phone back to the original Rom.
Since then some months passed, and I wanted to try again. I tried 1000000 times to root it again with SuperOneClickv2.3.3, Root_Exploit_OneClick and other tools like this and i ALWAYS get the same message...
I also attach a picture of my error message. I dont know what to do. I dont know what is the problem. I also read somewhere in the forum, that it could be the firewall that is blocking something, disabled it,tried again,always problem...
Could you help, or do you have any idea what this is happening ?
I want very much to change my rom from cyanogenmod 2.3.6 to something newer !!!:cyclops:
Thank you very much
