I'm trying to basically revive a friend's tablet. The problem is I've tried so many different things that I'm getting frustrated. Any recommendations on how to get it back to the way it was out of the box or close to it. It is a U.S. model. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello everyone,
Sorry that my first post has to be a request for help, but I recently saw an XDA IIi for sale at a good price and went for it.
I am now thinking that my purchase may have been a little hasty as I can't get any service on it.
I'm in the U.K. and with O2 although apparently the device is unlocked - O2 (providers) cannot help me nor can the slimy type who passed me the semi-brick (for some of my hard earned!)
Bluetooth, WiFi and other features seem to work well, but I cannot find any networks when searching in the start>settings>phone>network> 'find network' or 'set network' even though I have a new SIM with web and GPRS updates.
Does anyone have any ideas how to solve the issue?
I'd just like to use the thing I spent money on rather than have to suck up the loss or, perish the thought, sell it on to someone else who might want it.
Any suggestions are much appreciated,
G
anyone?
I'm stumped by this one.

Doesn't it really work with the JIG?
If it doesn't work, I would not try.
If I just give the phone back to the ATT to fix it or change another one, how much should I pay?
thanks.
I know I am not good at the english.
But I got the same problem like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848743
I found if I buy a new one on the amazon, it will cost me 80$. So if I need money to fix it I would buy a new one.
This is my first year in USA, so please give me some help.
Thanks.
I want to know is there anyway to tell if the phone has been previously rooted? Also some suggestions on buying a used smartphone? Does anyone know of an app that will test the hardware? Thanks, I have a hard time letting go of my money.lol
Hi there,
First post so first up let me just say hey been lurking on here for awhile but never needed to post before! I seem to have had the worst luck ever, purchased two samsung phones first off a galaxy s2 off ebay which I was really looking forward to using and then an s8000 from cex which I wasn't looking forward to using so much. I've spent a lot of time unlocking and sim unlocking them only to find out they are both IMEI blocked, I've spent a lot of money on them and even when i've taken them into the operators they have been no help even going so far as suggesting I have stolen both of them. I don't really want to give up on either phone but spending £100 on a z3x box just for two phones is a bit much, so I wanted to know if there's anyone in london with a z3x box who would be willing to help me. I understand that it probably looks a bit dodgy asking on a new account like this but I can only assure you of my sincerity. I'll understand if no one is willing to help but if anyone is could they please get in touch with me.
Thanks for your time.
You need to get your money back from ebay and cex, shouldn't be a problem, always get imei no before buying, if they don't provide it, they are hiding something

I had spent two years trying to find and buy one of these G800M models to use in the US only to have the radios die on me and not let data/wifi/gps/bluetooth to work. Im trying to pick up another one or even a motherboard to swap into it. I am dail driving an s4 mini and have been for roughly 5 years now and need more devices to keep me from getting bored.
If anyone knows where to buy them used online besides the mercadolibre site I would gladly appreciate it.
