hi i have an Xda II mini, well i am trying to upgrade to the new 27mb extra storage rom.. i managed to do it once, but just to check the possiblity of restoring the original extracted rom of mine i again did a reflashing and resotred my original o2 rom successfully. now i want to revert back to the 27mb extra storage but when i get into the bootloader it it does not give me the press power to flash option also it keeps formatting my SD card back to the FAT file system from the RAW format with the big storage rom on it. i have tried changing computers and writing the file with ntrw.exe version 2.0 but still no luck. please help as i want to upgrade to the extra 27mb storage deleting my extd rom. plz help.
when you pop the SD back into the phone, you need to ensure its in bootloader mode displaying serial on the screen, that way you will get the card being formatted, and you must also have the usb connected, then and only then you will see the press power to flash option.
hope that helps

Hello All,
I follow the upgrade guide, when doing the step "8. Downloading your New ROM onto your Magician", I press the Power, Camera and Reset buttons at the same time to go to "Boot-loaded" mode. But the screen DOES NOT show "SD Download", it still show "Serial".
Please help!!
I am using O2 mini limited edition.
Thanks,
Jack
Jack,
Try putting your SD in your PC card-reader again, when it doesn't want to format it the writing of the rom with ntrw has failed in such a way that a mbr is still present on your sd. Is it the same card as you used for dumping your own rom? Did you dump at all?
To solve your problem
- stay in bootloader
- connnect usb (now your magician reads USB)
- dump your own rom on the SD, this will destroy the mbr & now ntrw will write the rom-image at the beginning of the Sd & your magician will see it.
- make a back-up from your SD with ntrw if you like
- write back the image, you have from your previous attempt, with ntrw
- put the SD in your magician, still in bootloader
- now it should read 'press power to flash'
Good luck, M

You have to HOLD the three buttons until you see the screen that says to hit the power screen to update. If you don't get that screen, load the .nb1 file back onto the SD card again.
I had to hold the three buttons for several seconds.
Hello,
Thanks for your reply!
But I encouter any other problem. After following the procedure, the SD download screen was shown it shows 100% and everything run smooth. Then I hard reset my o2 mini. After that the memory still not change (64MB + 64MB). I am using the file mksBigStorage112.nb1.
Does anyone know what is the problem ?
Thanks,
Jack
Jack,
The device only has 64Mb. Take a look at the storage folder, this should be around 27Mb. Start -> Settings -> system -> Memory -> second tab & select Storage.
Cheers, M
oh, ic. But still has around 7mb.
Are you sure that you didn't flash your own dump back, cause this is not the expected result.
Try again pls etc etc & more of these predictable phrases.
Regards, M

You updated your ROM to a new version, but not a BIG STORAGE version.
To get more storage, you have to flash with a BigStorage ROM. There are several threads here describing the process in detail. Do a search on "Big Storage Explained" or such and you will get detailed instructions.
mksBigStorage112.nb1
Sounds like a BS to me.
Yesterday i tried to flash my I9003 with Odin but I messsed up and it showed the black screen of death...now it's fixed. But I have a new problem:
after I put on the phone it starts normally and get to the menu but after 10 min it blocks and then goes into bootloop mode. I tried to go into recovery mode to reset the phone and format the internal SD but it tells me that reset is OK and that it's impossible to format the internal memory (use ui menu ...).
Even with the settings menu it's impossible to format the memory ( it tells that it's OK but the memory is not empty ).
I flashed the phone again but the wallpaper is the same none of the applications was deleted.
how can I fix this please ??
I saw a way to switch internal and external memory but it needs froyo 2.2.1 , Can I do this ??
I need your help please !!!!!!!!!!!

Just flash a new firmware of your choice.
Xxkpq is most favoured.
I use HTC explorer (A310e). I accidentally erased my SD card by via settings panel. Now when i switch on my mobile it's not working and a white screen appears only with htc written on it. I removed the battery and then inserted it again but it is still not working. I need help. Please tell me what should i do?? I have rooted my mobile few months back. But i think it doesn't have to do anything with this as SD card erasing caused all this. I tried to do factory reset but pressing power+ volume down button but it didn't work aswell. I am not good with mobiles so i don't no what to do next. PLEASE HELP ME.
Have you done a factory reset or just wipe the SD card? If you did factory reset you got into boot loop .and you have to install any custom ROM to get out of it..
Sent from my Explorer A310e

I have a THOMSON MID 1002 tablet. I flashed the stock ROM successfully twice a long ago. Now, I've faced the following problem all of a sudden-
1. Whenever I shut it down, it restarts and resets the device; never shuts down.
2. The internal storage and internal SD shows 0.0B (I have 1GB internal storage,16GB internal SD, external SD not inserted)
3. No app can be installed (maybe due to internal storage being 0B)
I cant install the stock ROM anymore, it now says , cant wipe data,cant wipe media,cant wipe cache.I found that there's a stock recovery manager named "reboot manager" which has the option- Hot Reboot,Reboot recovery,Reboot bootloader,power Off.
Pls see the attached image for my storage settings and the picture of what I get during installing stock ROM (vendor's official firmware) -
I m very new in installing n flashing, should I install a custom recovery (CWM) and custom ROM? Pls help me someone. U can check the tablet by googling - Thomson MID1002
