I would like to upgrade my 2X from Nova HD Rebuild v1.1.0 to Official V30A.
Problem is that I can not install drivers for PC because my custom ROM does not support PC connection,
Then I tried to downgrade it to stock rom, but I forgot to do backup in CWM when I moved from to stock to custom ROM. Thats way I have nothing to come back to. Now I am stucked without any ideas.
Can you please give me some advice?
Thanks
Admins!! I am bit surprised about this post. How come a new member with only 4 posts can open a new (looking for customer care kind of) thread in DEVELOPMENT section?
Asking coz I think this facility was not available since many years.
Dude! This post should be in General Section. Generally Devs dont answer such things in this area. :silly:
download B2C from lg site and install drivers
put youre phone into sw mode
download smartflash
wait for drivers
flash this: http://file.qip.ru/get/EpX_YlZ5/BIN_...EUR-XXX-N.html
and you have youre ics
thanks mivv, I have already tried that. But when I connect my phone to PC, those drivers can not be recognized because my custom ROM does not allowed it

1.put youre phone into sw mode (Remove batteri Hold in volume up & down , when putting in usb cable.)
2.Install drivers
3.flash the file miw link to in smartflash.
how easy are´nt that?
dafoxen, I tried removing the battery and Holding downvolume up & down , when booting, but in that case phone wont start.
It only boots when volume down is pressed and then it goes to sw upgrading mode. After connecting to PC nothing happens, no driver installing, no nothing.
I also tried with dubuging mode on and off before booting but its the same

cmahendra is right, the post doesn't belong in the Dev section, if the mods see it I am sure they will move it.
If you HAD to post in the Dev section then maybe you could have posted in the Nova thread?
But.. why don't you just put another rom on your SD card (surely you can take out your SD card and connect it to your PC? Buy an adapter if you need to they cost pennies) and flash it from CWM? Then you can connect to your PC.
Right now I`m searching for stock rom in zip format to try it load with cwm

I have almost exact same problem, but mine has been already update to ICS using smathflash. But for some reason I cannot install Homero's rooted V30a, becuase apparently the opti tool keep saying: USB device not found. I already try LG drivers, switching USB ports, restarting computer, poor device by now I'm sure it feels that has been raped after so many plug in's and off's.
How do I do and how do I know that the computer recognize it in APX mode?

Exactly, you've been here for over 5 years, you should know that questions go in Q&A. And don't try to blame this on cmahendra, he's kinda right. The development section is for Roms, kernels etc. Not questions.
I am not blaming anyone. Everyone has its own opinion and that is great, it only makes this community better.
But still I cant solve my problem
hectormcesar is having one also.
Come on people, we count on you :good:
He probably got the point, I'm a wise guy, we all are, anyway time, to update officially downgrade at least the baseband which is what LG check, I've done it with gb, but ics from topo was denied probably because bb was 28g.......

I'm having the same issue as you, it seems. Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981359
You might find an answer there, it gave me some life signs:
I flashed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1617458
To get some sort of life signs, I switched to CP UART, because switching to AP UART didn't change anything. Anyway, I hear the sound that plays when you plug a device in a couple of times, but it shows as an unknown device in the device manager. I also get a little icon in the system tray that says "an unknown device has been plugged in". A couple of seconds later, it disappears, the "disconnect" sound plays and the "unknown device" is no longer shown in the device manager...

The download link in post #1 is dead, but there's a mirror on page 6.
Question threads do not belong in Development, you only post threads in there when you've got developments to share. Moved to Q&A where all question threads should be posted.
Please be civil to each other please as you should be helping not criticising each other. Also reason Golub can post in Development is because he's been a member since before the 10 post rule was ever implemented.

First, thanks for the look.
Second, I have read the related threads to this, but none are like my special situation.
Twice I've had to get a warranty replacement for my Captivate after trying to restore from ODIN. Both times, the restore starts, then freezes mid-process. I've let it sit for an hour both times and nothing changes. Frozen. I have no choice but to unplug the USB cable, and remove the battery. The phone is then dead. I mean DEAD. Powered off & completely unresponsive. No power on. Screen doesn't light. "USB device is not recognized" when plugged into a PC w/ drivers. NODA. KAPUT.
I've successfully flashed w/ ODIN before, so I have no idea why certain times it decides to stop.
I'd like to use Clockworkmod to flash in between roms, but after re-flashing I always get the boot loop (AT&T screen is as far as it gets.) I try re-flashing to the original ROM, a backup of the stock ROM. Nothing works.
I REALLY don't want to try and get a 4th warranty phone if this happens again.
I know Clockworkmod requires a compatible ROM, but I've never seen one (Perception, Cognition etc.) that says it is. I know you need a backup of the nanroid, but isn't Clockworkmod supposed to do this?
Can someone straighten me out so I don't get yet another bricked phone?!
Thanks.
EDIT: Basically, I can flash a custom ROM just fine using Clockworkmod. Except when ODIN decides to be a *****, I can flash the stock ROM back, then another custom ROM. I want to flash from one custom ROM to another (or a backup of the stock ROM) without having to rely on a program that's bricked my phone twice!
Thanks again.
had this happen to me one night while trying to change roms. I used ROM Manager to flash back to a stock backup I made and stuck at ATT logo. got the phone into download mode and it would go a little then the screen would turn green or blue or orange, sometimes black and freeze running odin. I just kept at it, leaving the battery out for different intervals, holding volume keys with usb plugged in and then inserting battery. took about 30 tries but it finally took and odin flashed me back to stock. Just don't give up, try try again...you may get lucky

NOTHING like throling auseless thread int he wrong section ... except we ve been politely asked by the admins to stop doing it so I will refrain from doing it ..
to answer you question , it seem like
the usb port/ card or even motherboard , ( might also be a bad usb cable) is at fault here , if you have a jig ( witch I advise you to build one asap if your into flashing roms ) I would never leave my phone plugged in to my pc when somethign is not responding . for example when flashing a kernel or even back to stock I know exatly how long thisi suppose to take and if its hanging I will unplug it and use the jig to go back in download mode and restart again , if your more cautious ten me then dotn , but nothing takes longer then 5 minuttes to flash on your phone so if by 10 minutes i dont work then your screwd so not worth letting your phone drain its battery ..
btw any questions belong in q&A no matther how relevant they are .
Without meaning to be rude, have you consider how reliable the computer you're flashing from is?
If you've seen the same behaviour twice, flashing two separate phones, then it seems likely that there's something specific either to the PC hardware (cables, ports), software (Odin, downloaded ROM, USB drivers) or method (human error of some kind) you're using.
Is there anything about your setup which might interrupt data on the USB line to the phone as it's being flashed?
Hope this helps,
AoN
i read on another forum somewhere that you cannot flash a stock backup from rom manager over a custom rom. that rom manager does not back up the kernel/modem etc...not sure how true it is, but I know the only time this ever happened to me was when I flashed a stock backup from ROM manager over a custom ROM.

For every non-development thread that is posted, one actual relevant thread gets bumped to page two. It hurts development, our at least slows it down.
Of course, that doesn't mean you should be rude or anything.

Also, if you're not doing it already, make sure you plug your USB cable into a USB port that is directly attached to your motherboard. Like the ones in the back. Many people have had issues using the front side USB ports or even going through a USB hub.
Also I guess it's worth it to reinstall drivers and do the normal windows type troubleshooting.
Hi, I just rooted my phone and installed Darky's ROM etc. Everything went perfectly but I just did a factory reset on my phone through the settings > privacy menu. Then i turned my phone off, now it's stuck on the boot screen (the one that says:
Galaxy S
GT-I9000
Samsung
)
Anyone know what I can do to resolve this?
PS, I've tried booting into recovery and download mode,- only download mode works
Flash ressurrection with Odin, or just try reflash a kernel.
Post in right section next time !
And don't say "dead" "brick" if you have download mode, nothing is more "noob" !
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Flash another ROM in Odin with re-partition. You need CSC, Modem, and ROM. The next time, factory reset/wipe, clear cache, and clear Dalvik cache before flashing to a custom ROM, not after.
Also, this is the wrong section for this.
If download mode still works, its unlikely that its ' dead'.
Probably just a corrupted filesystem or some missing file that it needs.
If youve tried everything else, the thing left to do is flash a complete firmware via either Odin or Heimdall, in download mode. That should give you a working phone again.
First, wrong section... post in the right section next tome.
Get darky resurection edition and flash with odin, then reflash darky nornal rom from cwm

follow this guide for flashing stock rom --> http://darky.ficeto.com/community/i...-stock-rom-over-darkys-rom-gt-i9000-only.486/
AND: if you can access DL mode then Recov Mode is working too. You are just doing something wrong then ... for Recov Mode you need to release all buttons when Galaxy S logo appears.

For questions maybe the questions and answers section
Anyway, with download mode our phone is pretty much unbrick/killable unless you flash another bootloader which is a) rare and b) not really a threat either
I think my phone is dead.... can anyone help me verify that? I've been reading all over and tried all ways to get a response, but there's none.
I pulled the battery and let it sit for several hours before inserting. - No response.
Put in my spare batte, have it plugged to charger. Also no response.
Plug to PC, PC doesn't even see the phone.
Cannot go into recover, download or boot or show any signs of life.
It was charging fine one moment (last saw about 80%) then about 10 min later, went to unplug to use.... but found the phone dead and rather warm. (not sure if that is usual since the batt was being charged)
Anyway, I flashed my phone only 1 week ago using "Insane" kernel and doing Overclock to 1200 with about -75 undervolt across the frequencies. Did I kill the phone by doing this ???
What are my chancs of getting warranty on it if the service centre manages to find out it had been flashed??
What are my options now? Any other areas to chek and try to recover?
Thanks
Well, if you can't get into download mode, there is still one more step to try before giving up. Go to ebay and search for I9000 usb jig. That might be able to force your phone into download mode. (They are cheap. Very cheap.)
If that doesn't work, there's nothing else you can do but to bring it back to a service centre.
Check out the info for the rig you mentioned. Apparently, it doesn't wotk for phones that are totally dead. i.e. no signs of life at when buttons are pressed, no lights etc.
I brought the set down the to service centre and luckily, the lady there did not ask me anything much. She just swapped out the batt to verify, plugged into USB charger to verify... then started to fill in the form for the phone to be sent in for repairs. Though she's not the repair person.... she did mentioned that all data would be lost and most likely a new board would be put in.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that'll be the case... just gimme a new PCBA w/o trying to repair the current one. Hope they don't have any diagnostic tool/fixture where they can boot from a "debug" chip (such as processor, etc) to do board level repair.... then it might just show up that I'm running a modified kernel & ROM.
They cant check, if you were runnig custom ROM. Stop worrying, mostly they do not have a choice but to replace PCB. This is my personal exp. with samsung.

Hi All,
I just purchased my Captivate yesterday from Costco (Expecting to still get the 2.4 Eclair) but unfortunately I got the Froyo 2.2 on my new captivate.
I tried rooting it using superoneClick and it just gets stuck on "Waiting for Device". I have drivers properly installed on my windows 7 64 bit machine (because I can use the phone and access its internal SD card).
Can anyone have suggestion or faced similar problems?
I have tried disabling/re-enabling usb debgging while it says "Waiting for the device"
Search the forum. There are a few threads floating around on different ways to root the stock froyo build. I don't know why the superoneclick wont work in your case but a search will turn up some info for you.
thanks. I will search the the threads and will post my results here in this thread for someone like me struggling with the same problem.
If you were planning on flashing a custom ROM after rooting anyway, you could use Odin one-click from download mode to flash 2.1 eclair, and then go from there.
Are you sure you are enabling debugging? I just used superoneclick on my phone last night after I flashe dback to stock.
First thing I do is change the phone in settings to - Ask on Connection, then I enable debugging.
Also you could try a different USB port on your computer and also make sure you have all of your necessary drivers installed.
I hope you get it figured out!
PeteSeiler2010: I haven't tried different USB port yet. I will try tonight and see if it goes through.
For usb debugging, I tried that as I mentioned. Let me just conform what I did. When it says "Waiting for device" for several seconds, I disconnected USB cable from either phone or computer (because it says that if you are stuck on "waiting for device", disable and re-enable usb debugging) because without disconnecting the cable, phone didn't let me disable the USB debugging..
So looks like I am missing something here??

want a much easier method? install speedmod kernel using odin, reboot into recovery, advanced features (not the CWM version), and choose the option that says something like "root phone" and choose the "simple" option. congratulations, you are now rooted and running a custom kernel with CWM that can install a custom ROM.
next time, please do not post this in development as this has NOTHING to do with development. Q&A or general next time, please.
How did someone with no posts, post a question in this section? I thought you had to have a minimum of 10 posts to post in here.

right now i know i should be able to recover my phone as i can connect my phone and it recognises it as apx driver, but the trouble is i can put in updating mode. ( vol down and then inserting usb) i plug in the usb without the battery inserted and without pushing any buttons and it still recognises it as an apx device, knowing this, ive tried nvflash and smart flash but both have no effect and dont recognise my phone. i will add that the version of ics that is currently out leaked. is very smooth, unfortunately bluetooth pairing doesnt work properly and wifi is a bit weak, but theres a fix for that.
i have tried flashing a cwm but to no succes. i do know some things in android flashing and repairs, but admittidly not everything so im not a complete noob.
id very much apreciate it if anyone could help me.
youll have to excuse any typing mistakes. the resolution on the tv isnt that great from a laptop hdmi out. sorry guys.

While i was watching a video on facebook my phone randomly crashed, i waited for the phone to die as i didn't know about the soft reset i could do, and ever since then the phone has not booted past the red motorola logo, i've looked up a few ways to 'unbrick' my phone but they all required me to be able to go onto the device and enable USB debugging mode, which i obviously can't do. I have tried 1 other way which was to try and run "xFSTK-SoC-Driver-Setup-1.0.3.exe" and see if the bootloader would be reinstalled but i keep getting a message saying "libusb0.DLL is missing" and when i download the .DLL online it still says the message no matter where i put it.
I can get into the fastboot menu and i have formatted it to see if there was something on the phone that was stopping it from booting, but alas i am still here with a 'bricked' phone. Hopefully someone can help me get this sorted as i'd rather not have to be on my Nokia C1-01 for long
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the information but to me that is just words and links, i have no idea what to download, what i need to be looking into, how to use RSDLite, i'm more a visual learner so i learn via watching (im actually a 90% visual learner) and the fact i have no background with this it is relatively confusing

Good luck!
Hi MrWafWaf,
Here some extra help.
The things we are going to do is using RSD-Lite to restore your phone if it only has software problems. And we suspect it has that.
What u need for it are the following:
- RSD-Lite from here, unzip and install
- USB drivers: 32Bits or 64bits windows, and install it
- The firmware, this is the difficult part. U need the one from your country. If u got it wrong, it will maybe not be fully optimized for your country and language. Allways take the latest, in this case one with '9.8.2I' in it. (need help, say from where you from, carrier and if u buyed it from a carrier or retail. Maybe we can say which one u need)
So u now have RSD-Lite installed, the drivers installed and a zip file with the latest firmware.
Now see this thread: here
It's about using RSD-Lite. U already did step 1 and 2 from the 6 steps (not numbered, in quote) short guide.
Fastboot mode: Getting into it;
To get in AP Fastboot mode from power off: Hold Powerbutton + volume down. By holding those 2 the phone will boot and after a few seconds reboot. At the time the phone reboots and vibrates release the powerbutton. Now u will be in fastboot mode with all those text lines.
To get in AP Fastboot when the phone is on the (un)lock bootlogo: Hold powerbutton + volume down + volume up. Keep holding it. At the moment the phone reboots, release the powerbutton and volume up. KEEP holding the volume down button. It will now boot in fastboot mode.
Good luck. For the fastboot mode, u may need to try it a few times before it works. But i can assure you it always will work unless u have a hardware problem.
