Ativ 3 ? link to that phone please.
I would go for Donut , and when you hacked the "bios !!! " you are almost there.
so your steps to do:
hack IPL bootloader.
hack sbl1.
hack sbl2.
hack sbl3.
hack UEFI.
make drivers for the whole OS.
build a rom.
boot android.
have fun and please post here again when you have it booted

Unfortunately at this time, installing another OS on the phones other than what is already there. I'm a little confused with the ATIV 3 device. If you're speaking about the ATIV Tab 3 and not the ATIV S Windows Phone, then this is the wrong forum location.
If you can reply back with some clarification, I'll be glad to help.

Yes, im sorry i cannot quote i m on my phone, but as you said is the ativ tab 3
here you can see it
This one comes with w8 preinstalled but i ... hate ... windows 8. And i wanted an alternative to this software on a tablet that has a really good hardware and a lot of memory and hdd to spare, iknow that dual booting is possible but apparently only with androidx86, thank you for your answers

OK, that's a moderately-cool looking product, but there's a reason we hadn't heard about it here:
This is the Windows Phone 8 forum. That is not a phone!
The general Win8 forum is over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-8-rt/general

Phone Freezes Randomly (Magic 32B)

Well i´ve got a problem.
I´ve got a Magic 32B (i think its better in the G1´s forum) and it freezes randomly, since i´ve rooted it.
I´ve tried several roms, but the problem is still there.
I´ve tried some sd cards, but it still freezes.
I´ve updated the Radio and the spl (Radio : 2_22_19_26I & Death SPL)
well. i dont know what to do now. it freezes, the display´s still on, but its.. frozen. then half a minute later, it reboots. but its not a kernel panic. it reboots completely.
please help
There's only one thing to do in a situation like this.......
.........get a Dream (G1)!
thank you -. - i really dont need answers like this one.
Also, this is in the WRONG section, this isn't DEVELOPMENT its a Q and A so put it in the QandA section
reformat your sd card(fat32) re partition it , the wipe EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON YOUR PHONE, and flash a STABLE ROM. LIKE SUPERD OR CYANOGENS ROM.

I'm not sure where your problems can stem from.
That being said, I try some of the suggestions stated above, ie.,
1. Complete wipe
2. Repartiton SDcard
3. Maybe even invest in a new battery (you never know)
4. Those are the things I would've tried. Those same things can pretty much eliminate most problems.
5. If all else fails.........get a Dream (G1)
Or you could pray to the Cell Phone Gods...........
Seriously, I know I haven't been much help, but the suggestions I put forth is what I'd do.
Don't forget to pray!

Communities police themselves and don't need no STEENKIN' badges to do that. If you don't have an ARM compiler or the Android SDK on your computer you are not a developer and have no business creating new topics in this subforum.

Rooting your phone does not make you a developer. If you don't have an ARM compiler or the Android SDK on your computer you are not a developer and have no business creating new topics in this subforum.

You don't have to be a mod to know who is the intended audience for a forum section. If you expect free technical support the very least you can do is to help out the people doing it by filing your request appropriately and doing your own damn leg work.

Junior member wannabe fail?
Anyway, the main thing is is that if your phone is relying on your SD card like for Apps2SD you could run into some problems with a badly formatted card. Would you be able to post a logcat of one of these crashes? It would help a lot in trying to find and identify the problem and then fix it.

This sounds more likely to be a hardware issue, I've heard of many cases of it on the forums every month or so.
but why should it be a hardware issue? i mean, before i rooted it, it worked perfect. but now..

Yes, some people had the exact same hardware problem as you. You can try to un-root and root again but the problem may still be persist.
okay, thank you. i´ll try it tomorrow, then I tell you if it worked
Hey wazup man well i see what u talking about but i also have a MT3G (32B) and i had no problems with it. Its just depends of the rom you put on it cuz not all roms are stable some are beta or still working on the rom. So what you need do is find roms that are stable. Try find a rom in here go to the search Tap>and put this SuperCSDIX10 im using right now that rom and its FAST so hopwe it helps out

Wrong section man.... And by the info provided in your links only SGS2 and the Galaxy Tab supports Kies Air....
EDIT : Yes. This works on my Mini with CM7 RC3 . The interface has some bugs. But it works
please check, think, or preview before posting something
if i'm not wrong too, kies only supports stock rom, right?
See this Kies runs from your Phone So there's no need to have stock ROM
nice share but still wrong section haha.
guys its mention there that it works for only those two devices, but tadaaaaaa, it works for our phone also, i know its a wrong section but its something really cool and even helpful for many of us who are using custom rom
hmm i should try it

theres no official ROM because there hasn't been a need for Samsung to release one and because very few people have this device which is an amazing device, its not been leaked either
Tell me, what do you mean by you have installed a custom ROM 8779? that OS version isn't available to us, we have only 8773 from MS
To my knowledge There are no custom ROMs, there are no official ones, there are no OS dumps, there is no access to use the download mode, or change the bootloader, there is however limited access to the diagnostic mode, parts of the EFS, parts of the RAM and several other low level areas of the device outside of the OS

its with custom rom(8779) when i got it.
you know some developers made the custom roms for sale(maybe just in our country)
i cant get the rom , they wont share them
i cant upgrade my phone too (the wp 7.8)
so i want to rollback
the other way to upgrade my phone is send my phone to the dev
my English is poor, maybe there are some mistakes. i hope you can know what i say

very interesting, and your English is fine
there are three possibilities
1, Its faked, its so easy to change that info screen
2, its real but they didn't install a custom ROM, they have gained access to the 7889 CAB files and updated the OS manually
3, its real and they updated the ROM somehow
if you would mine could you try and dump the ROM, using QPST Here
its not easy to use and don't ever hit any buttons marked "write" if you want to help ill type up instructions, but essentially you need to make sure the SPC is correct, then download this, then put your phone in to diagnostic mode using the diagnostic tool, add the COM port to QPST and connect to the phone, click start clients, then software download, click multi image, then fill in where you want it and click start, your phone should restart in to a download mode and after that I don't know what will happen, to get out of the download mode you just unplug and hold the power button until it turns off.
ill write a more detailed guide if you want to help

To stop the Demo demonstrations, you have to install ROOT WP7 TOOLS.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867048
Then in explorer you have to go to the Startup folder (windows\StartUp) you have to create a new folder and copy all files except RetailDemoService.lnk.
Then in Registry, you have to go to shortcuts folder (Local Machine\System\Explorer\Shell Folders) and change the StartUp file, change the value data from \Windows\StartUp\ to \Windows\StartUp\new\.
After this restart the device.
I hope i helped and I'm sorry the bad English.

I am trying to follow your guide. But from what I have already read, don't we need do a "INTEROP-UNLOCK" to even run the wp7 root tool?

Hey Dazza, I wish you guys the best in finding a way to develop a custom rom. I myself am trying to help get custom roms for my Dell Venue Pro. Anyways, I have this Samsung Focas S that has a demo and I want to disable it as of Ricardox6 instructions. I just did the windowsbreak, but I want to know do I install now that XAP Deployer or can I just jump straight to the wp7 root tool?
thanks again
