Anyway i need some help if anyone could assist me
I'm trying to install the Mango beta to my HTC Mozart however i keep getting this error in the update file.
"Can't access update service please insure your computer is connected to the internet and try again"

Okay so the other day i was searching for any new updates for my wildfire and apparently there was one (not firmware update just software) i wasn't sure wat the software number was.... but there was an update.
But after i completed the update i realize my wifi was unable to start. (meaning every time i try to turn it on it gives me a message saying it wont turn on) so i called htc tech support and they were no help at all (wasted 30 of my minutes)
after that i decided to factory reset my phone but still no hope. so does anyone know what i can do?? root? but how will it help me if i root my phone?? also i cant go on the market cuz there's no wifi so i cannot download astro or any file manager to help me install the root applications.
any suggestions? cuz right now i cant even retrieve my contacts or anything...
thank you in advance for any suggestions.
Exactly the same problem here
Hey mate,
Have you had any luck with above, I have exactly the same problem and after contacting HTC they said it is a Hardware problem send it back for repairs. How could that be it was all working fine before the Firmware update ah!!
Anybody got any solutions for this, thanks in advance ?
I was pretty excited to see the Mango update is now available for the masses.. I mean those of us who don't have our devices unlocked as a developer phone so I decided to try my hands on it. But now I have some issues. When I open ZUNE I see update is available.
It tries to update but than after rebooting and finishing step 2/2: ERROR Code 80180048. apppers
I tried this several times on Win7 X64 and x86 but I still have the same problem.
Any ideas? maybe am getting something wrong

This could be happening for 2 reasons... Apparently your phone is getting confused by which update to download.
1) Did you unlock at any point with Chevron? If so you probably didn't check off all the languages. If this is the problem just look for the Microsoft approved walsh fix, very easy to find.
Then restore your phone to the version before it was provisioned for mango and apply the walsh fix. VERY IMPORTANT CHECK OFF EVERY LANGUAGE. Then restart the mango process and people have posted that this should work.
2) If, like me, your a registered developer and still getting this error then unfortunately I've only been able to find 1 fix. Microsoft is working on correcting the problem but has said it will take a couple weeks. So on to the fun part. You need to flash your phone back to factory form. Flash not reset. You lose everything. Good this is your purchase history, contacts and calendar should be attached to your live id, if not you might want to sync them.
To flash your rom just search these wonderful forums to find it. All I searched for was "flash focus rom" and found a thread with the files and instructions were in the files. Once your phone has been flash you should have no problem updating to mango although you have to go through all the original updates and re install and set up your phone.
Hope this helps... it worked for me.

Thanks for reaching out to help me but I think I will give up now. I did all what you told me.. I read from other places even before you responded but it still didn't work. Am thinking its a problem with my Samsung Omnia phone so I guess I have to wait till the Final release of mango comes out. I had also the same issue with NoDo, I had to wait till the official Samsung fix came before I could finally get it.. guess this is like that too.
Sorry I couldn't help more. I have an unlocked ATT Focus running on Rogers... I was able to flash an Omnia 7 ROM on it but that was horrible because the phone literally began to mix the up and down and the portrait and landscape modes.
Did you try and flash your omnia back to stock?
I couldn't return back to the the stock ROM. My boot-loader is probably damaged . When I press the the volume up + and camera button to enter into download mode all I see is the black and white screen ..
So I've been trying to unlock my Samsung Focus with ChevronWP7. I have followed >>this<< guide, step by step, but after I click both boxes and click on "Unlock", I get "Sorry, I'm having trouble communicating with the phone. Please make sure it's connected using USB. Please start the Zune application." So then I tried another guide(can't find the link right now), which included disabling the network, using WPConnect.exe, etc, but that didn't work either. I am completely at a loss of why this damn error keeps popping up. I restarted both my PC and phone numerous times, I've tried different USB ports and cables, but nothing is working. Anyone have any tips?
My OS version is 7.0.7390.0, Firmware Revision is 2103.11.3.3 and Zune version is 4.7.1404.0 if that helps at all.
Thank you, maxx.
I had same problem and I used the guide below and it worked on the first try. Most importantly was STEP 2 for me. Uninstalling Zune and using the version from the link provided in the guide at step 2.
[Tutorial] Unlock your phone; prevent relock & prepare for updates!
Well damn, it says my firmware isn't compatible with CWP7. I guess that and my Zune version is why it doesn't work. Is it possible to revert back to a previous firmware version?
try to downgrade to previous version (if possible) from zune.
If your phone came with NoDo (7392 or 7390) installed the only way to unlock at the moment is to flash a previous firmware version. Check the forums if there is one for your provider and phone.
If i'm not wrong you can checkwith Ansar's rom.
Have you resolved the problem yet? It seems there is something wrong with the "hosts" file. Generally, this file is in folder "C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc". Open it, delete all lines like "192.168.1.101 developerservices.windowsphone.com". Then, save it, try ChevronWP7 again in admin permission, it should be OK. If still not works, please send email to me, [email protected].

maxx,
Chevron WP7 DOES NOT work with 7390 and above. As you have found out, the only option is to downgrade the firmware to an older version and then unlocking it. I tried searching and was not able to find it ( or I did not know what the hell I was looking for, HTC HD7 user here )
If your Focus came with a older version and you updated using Zune, you can try restoring
Open Zune--> Settings-->Phone-->Updates-->Restore
Try posting in the Samsung Focus forum. You might get some help.Good luck...
Anyone here on XDA have this tablet? I can't seem to find any info on the internet about it.
I need to reflash it, as the OTA (1.3.1) update failed. It just boot loops between the recovery and the Polaroid logo. Unfortunately Southern Telecom support is telling me there is no update. There is no downloads on there support website for this tablet..not even the original firmware..they want me to send it back to them again. (last time it took two months cause of a screen issue)
It's my sons christmas present and he likes to read books on it.
I am able to connect by ADB, and I pulled the files, but it appears that most of the system files are gone
If someone could provide the OTA.zip URL or somehow pull the system files from it that would be soo helpful.
Thanks.

Polaroid Kids Tablet PTAB780 and User Guide and Updates that won't download
I purchased two of the Polaroid Kids Tablet 2, model PTAB780 for my grandsons for Christmas. I’m setting up games that I know they like to play on their parent’s phones. I’d like a user manual to help me understand the tablets. They came with a Quick Start Guide but I want, no need more. When I look online I only find a user guide for model PTAB750 but once I got it downloaded I see it is just another Quick Start Guide. Even if it would help, when I try to print, it wants to condense it to just one sheet.
On both of the tablets, the AppShop home screen will not load (see attached picture) and I’m afraid that it is draining the battery. Is there a way to remove this widget from the home screen? Is this being addressed in the OTA Update Kids Tablet Version 1.3.1? I’m having difficulties getting this to download, I’ve tried four times now with no luck, Yesterday after 8.5 hours, the download stopped at 612.68 MB with no reason why it stopped. Today it stopped after 7 hours and the message I got is DOWNLOADING FAILED, PLEASE CHECK YOUR NETWORK. This last time I had half of it downloaded and there was nothing wrong with the network as I was using my PC at the time with no problem. I’ve tried downloading with nothing else using the network and that didn’t help.
I clicked in the link in the above post where It was posted a solution was but when there I found no answer other than to install a MEGA app.
I will call (1-877-768-8481) or email ([email protected]) tomorrow about this problem and see if there is a way they can email me this file to my home PC and if it could then be transferred to a micro SD card and some how be uploaded from it or do a transfer via a USB cable but there again a User Guide would be great to answer questions I have.
I really need assistance as I'm trying to get these tablets set up for my grandsons before Christmas.
Thanks.
Thank you for the link!
Can you give me some quick instructions of how to re-install the rom please!
Thanks

I do not have IMG files for the PTAB780, and none are online. I suggest contacting support @ http://southerntelecom.com/polaroidsupport/ and requesting it.

Hello wonderful helpful android wizards out there! I humbly seek your help.
I recently purchased an unlocked HTC M8 AT&T and had it unlocked so I could use my prepaid carrier (Simple Mobile). I have two issues I would like help with:
1) I cannot get a gps lock at all. I have made sure the device is in high accuracy mode and I have tried downloading and refreshing aGPS data via the GPS status app.
2) I am trying to upgrade to lollipop using the provided RUU file on the HTC website:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/
I am currently running 4.4.2. I was hoping that upgrading to the latest firmware might solve my GPS problem as a bonus, though I obviously want lollipop anyway to just generally be up to date. HTC sync manager works fine, but when I run the RUU file, it says the phone is not connected. I have tried the PB99IMH solution posted here that seemed to work for many people:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928439
The roadblock I have hit is that I cannot copy the zip file onto my Android. I keep getting the error "The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected." I can copy other file to the phone just fine. I tried fiddling with the permissions of the file, but I honestly don't really know what I'm doing with those.
So those are my problems. I would greatly appreciate any assistance.
