Hi
I have now got problems with the rom i am currently using it constantly throws errors saying unable to execute tmail.exe, or devicelock.exe. I have tried hard resetting but this has not helped.
Is it possible to reflash the same rom or does it have to go though another rom and then back to the one i want to use, if this is the case i may just flash it with another rom from here and see how that goes.
Any help will be appreciated.

Yes u can reflash with same rom, assuming it is a cooked rom on ur device and that you have already hardspl? if so, then go for it! Reflashes usually sort the problem. If not re-download it on your comp and re flash using that.
How about re-flashing original rom from Palm? i already hard spl my treo. It say device already have latest rom. Can't force to reinstall. Anyone can help?

Hi, This is a strange question, but would like to know the answer ASAP. What is the difference between a hard reset vs rom upgrade with the same ROM?
Will there be a difference or it is the same, ie it will bring the mobile to the same state as when it was upgraded to that new rom?

Hi, I did a hard reset instead of upgrading the same ROM again. But I noticed something. I had installed WM7ish.tsk theme before the hard reset. After the hard reset this tsk file I could still see the Home settings. Your ROM (as I am using the MSD 6.5.1.7 - 23085) doesn't have WM7ish.tsk. But even after hard reset this was still there. But if I do a ROM upgrade, it erases this too. Does this mean, there might be few settings, installs, registry entries, which wont be erased even after a hard reset?
Hardreset and flashing the same ROM again is not the same!
Flashing a ROM does not delete everything! That is the reason why you should always do a hardreset after flashing!
You can test it. After flashing the clock still has the right time. After a hardreset the time is reset to initial values. Time is not the only thing that does not get reset by flashing.

Hi, Yes you are right. But I am saying, when I hard reset the theme was not deleted, which is not part of the rom. I thought it will be like doing a complete format with a new rom and nothing will be there.
If I am right u mean to say, I should have done a hard reset when I had upgraded the ROM. But the wm7ish.tsk, I had never installed before. It was only after the ROM upgrade

@umasiva:
I didn't realy answered your posting! It was just an answer to the main question of this thread and to the people who said that it would be the same.
Your problem is very strange! As I said befor, a hardreset deletes more than just flashing the same ROM again. Make a hardreset, softreset if the rom tries to install something from ext-rom at first boot and then doublecheck if the file is still there and if it has the rom-file-flag.

how to find out on the rom-file-flag? Actually after a rom upgrade & hard reset, still the wm7ish.tsk is still there.

One thing more, you device can be brick while flash rom (cable is disconnet, ect..)
My g2x keeps rebooting over and over again! This happened after i mounted it to my pc. it tries to read my sd card then just reboots over and over again. I have nv flash and tried to restore old back up but still does it. can any one help im thinking i need to flash stock.
you need to do a factory reset if your nandroid backup doesn't work. if that doesn't work reflash the rom.
I already did a factory reset and wipe and tried to re install the rom. it just continues to reboot. It starts up and if quick i can get into my lock screen and access things but within seconds it reboots and continues to do that
What rom are you using?

I was on a stock rooted rom when the problem happened. so i then i did a restore. when that didnt work i reflashed the stock rom that was posted on forum. i think it has something to do with my internal memory which i cannot access. this all happened when i was trying to back up my sd card while in usb and it just got an error when i unplugged it enless reboot.

I was hoping it was something simple like undervolting with a custom rom. I wish I could help. It sounds like you tried everything I would recomend. Maybe one of the real Android techie type guys can help you. I am still learning myself.

You must have installed some mod that made the phone crash when doing something... Which FW do you want to have?
The best I tried from 2.3.3 was from Wolf...
I tried "update service" but it says "you already have the latest software", on xrecovery i wiped dalvik catche ant etc. but it is still thesame, is there way how to fully wipe previuos rom in phone? now I am really confused, I am thinking to bring phone to some phone service company to fix it...

I don't know xrecovery. but there should be an FORMAT SYSTEM option.
it deletes\removes\kills\whatever the old rom and all its files. do that and try to reflash with the newest updater.
You must use xrecovery to install the ROM again or use superoneclick to flash it again. You cant fix without doing this.

Mine is also doing this. I just bought phone and it was still new in the box. I took to at n t and turned on and later in the day i went to update and it updated and has been doing this ever since. I got the links to here from a friend so i'm all new at this but very quick in learning. I have read in other posts that when it goes from 2.1 to 2.3 and you DONT delete user data it will do this..is this all that has happened to mine? I have the flash tool and files on desktop already. Ive also rooted and tried flashing the other day it kept coming up a security and bunch a greek to me...im sure all the answers are here but to a new guy this stuff is little confusing..after reading more today i asume im missing the recovery tool and the bootloader needs unlocked is this whats stopping the flashing? now after geting busy box and while it was installing it looped and now its just constant looping...im tryiny to read all this but you guys but all the ifs, ands. buts in here its too damn confusing...guess im off to amatuer flashing local i dont know what else to do...

I think that the Kernel isn't compatible anymore!
Reflash the original Kernel and the old ROM of your Xperia with flashtool!
It's a very simple and awesome tool for our beloved Xperia!
If you have any problems with the flashing, you can PM me
Good Luck
The_Mighty_Muffin
either your phone is bricked or you flashed the wrong kernel.
Just flashed the Chinese mod of MIUI to my LG G2x. Can't make any phone calls. Receiving or Outgoing calls sound like a helicopter. I couldn't load the rom at first until I factory reset. Odd...I know. Now, I'm attempting to factory reset so that I can uninstall the rom but it continues to load a fresh image. USB mount doesn't function correctly either (-___-). Wish meh luck! Any help would be most appreciated. Attempting to return to stock so that I can flash the original MIUI rom.
Sounds like a baseband issue

You dont follow instructions and blame the rom.. you upgraded your baseband and flashed wrong rom so that fause voice disturbance and static... 2) when you switch from factory rom you need to wipe before installing custom rom.. 3) make sure you are using cwm 5.0.2.0. The boot issue is known with touch recovery due to no support for ext4.. please dont flame the rom for yor mistakes, you just turn away devs with such eratic behavior.

I just recently installed G2X-SINGH-UI, it was my first try, and I had the exact same issue with the chopper sound when I made, and received calls.
I knew i did something wrong, but I didn't know what it could have been, but I see now it had something to do with me not wiping the correct rom. So, my question is, how do I go about "wiping" my ROM? I have the latest cwm, I have P999V21y, 2.3.4. I messed my phone up to the point it wouldn't turn on, so now I have another one, and I loved the G2X-SINGH-UI so much (with the little time I had to check out all of it's awesomeness), that i'd like to give it a go again, but this time take the proper steps to insure i don't not mess this one up. Thank.

There's a thread explaining how to fix the helicopter noise...
Hi, I just tried flashing cyanogenmod on my us cellular galaxy s3, and I ran into a problem. I followed a great youtube tutorial on how to flash cyanogen, and everything went fine. the tutorial used goomanager, and was done only using the phone, no computer. I flashed the rom after backing everything up through titanium, and everything appeared to be working like it should. After the flash was complete, the cyanogen animation popped up on my screen, but as soon as it finished loading, two messages popped up: setup wizard has stopped and goo.apps has stopped. I would hit okay, but the two messages just kept popping up. I restored my stock rom, but id still like to flash cyanogen and I need to know what I need to do to prevent this from happening again and how to restart the flash process. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

before you flashed the rom did you wipe data and cache? you might also be on the nightly version, try looking for the stable version, and if its on 10.1 its on 10.1, theres nothing you can do but wait for it to become stable if it isent already.

Everything was wiped. what I think happened was when I backed everything up, I didn't set titanium to not restore my app data, causing a bootloop. I could be very wrong about that though. What I need to know is how to reflash it, as I have already tried to but when I do it brings up system recovery instead of reflashing. Is it because I already tried flashing it once? and if that's the case how do I start from scratch? Oh, and I did flash the stable version. it was 10.1.2

might want to try flashing a stock rom via odin cause it sounds like you have stock recovery now, i dont know if anyone will pick you up in the q&a section, since yours is us cellular i dont think they have a forum for that specific contractor just only t-mobile at&t and verizon would have one. you can ask them in their q&a but tell them your situation and that your on us cellular. good luck mate. if ya have any questions just ask right here.
