Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

irritating....
on one side, i was not able to repair my cell...this site blocked me from make any comment on my post!!!!WTF.....had to create a new id altogether to post....
bigballa :-could u please specify what do u mean by "Reflash the nbh from the bootloader?" in a bit comprehensible language.....sorry couldnt understand this....

Warmup...
Do you still have the problem??
Question: you rooted right? did you copied an update.zip to your SD???
-->yes: try apply sd card update.zip
(when I am right the update.zip contains the new root system)
-->no : I dont know what to do
CAREFULL!! : if you do sth. in the recovery your phone maybe crashes

You have the wrong version i think. but that one has spaces between in the name, and Open recovery don't recognize a file with spaces. You simply change the name removing them. No spaces. But there is a newer version I think. I will look and post back, or you have a look its underneath you should find it.
**EDIT**
Here it is XT720 XDA special Stock Beta 2 with this update XDA_Special.zip
Or it looks like you have the right one, maybe sticking it in the wrong place. You have to unzip it first, then put it in /nandroid/openrecovery/ XT720 XDA special Stock Beta 2

I dont see any spaces in it.. i'll try another one and see if it works.. but even if that was the problem i should see something at least under the Delete section right ?

nvm my last post then, ill try and see if it work, and do i let the Update.zip at the root of the card ?
finnally got it working, i just made a nandroid folder as you said and openrecovery saw it.. everything seems to be good so far.. now im gonna have to figure how to make all those apps goes to my SD cards.. but well for now its bed time lol. Thx a lot man !! really appreciated

Leave the update.zip, it's necessary for OR.

B63M bricked?

Hi There,
Please forgive me I am a complete novice when it comes to Android phone.
I have a chinese Dual sim phone that I have routed with superoneclick. I have put clockworks recovery on it with rom manager as I was trying to create a copy of the ROM. I also installed Droid X Recovery Bootstrap, however in droid x I pressed the fix permission option and the phone started changing permissions everywhere and now my phone wont start. It keeps booting up in a loop and I cannot get to the recovery to wipe the memory and start again

What SOC does the device use?
If its Allwinner based, you could boot from mmc or reflash with livesuit.

21ss, thank you for the reply.
Sorry my friend, I have no idea what you mean by What SOC does the device use?
You say that you can boot from the mmc slot, please tell how and with what software.
Never heard of livesuit.
I have attached a word document in rar of the ebay item that I purchest.
Any help that you can give me would be very much appreciated.
At the moment I have a paper weight.
Regards chunky2.

Hey guys the good thing about this phone is that you cant brick it, it cant be hard bricked easily... but I suggest you go to this discussion and find possible solutions, I had same issue and even tho I never managed to fully sort the issue, its because of my laziness... I could if I wanted, I managed to get it to a position I can use it and I have been using it like so for months now... here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618775&page=3

Found this thread ...h-t-t-p-://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f606/samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100p-how-root-1523311
unable to link ????
SO
downloaded CF-ROOT frm h-t-t-p://download.chainfire.eu/55/CF-Root/SGS2/CF-Root-SGS2_XW_INU_KL1-v5.0-CWM5.zip
Extracted .tar and used ODIN (pda) to flash it .... easy !!!
this gives the CWM app which because i already had superuser installed from previous attempts was a bit glitchy but after a few mins and opening superuser root access was granted to CWM and app and it is now working fine
I believe its now rooted :victory:

Follw up
F.Y.I
Phone is working fine and has had full/good signal all day
As for all the previous attempts to root phone i now believe that i maybe did not have the drivers setup correctly..!
I did download ADB drivers for my phone but i also installed KIES
I noticed that although I had the Android phone /w ADB interface in device manager
I am NOT sure if I had the Samsung USB composite device (thingy) as well... this i have read about in another thread
So while in ADB mode i was unable to gain access to the SD card or internal volume ..???
and most of the failures were reported as write errors or the programs just hung
This is just an after thought but maybe the reason I had so much trouble
I can no longer check this theory as it has now gone back to my friend
so if you are doing as I did check this out and it might be alot easier than it was for me :good:
This maybe completely wrong also..??? someone might comment who has had success were I failed.?
if there are any questions about this Thread i will be happy to answer any and all PM's
(im no expert but have rooted/unlocked and jailbroken/unlocked many phones)
and thats yet another paperweight turned into phone (imei style)
this could not be done however without all of the advice out there this was such a tricky one i thought i would put this info all in 1place
but real thanks goes to the many people doing there thing (donate coz i did if i made a few quid)
i just follow instructions

Hi,
Please can you describe with more details and clearly what exactly is your problem?
Apparently your device is a Hewlett Packard Slate 6 voicetab - OS: JB 4.2.2
Is your device rooted?
Last operation made ?
Don't forget that you need to be more explicit when you need help

Can you tell me where have you downloaded your rom?
And apparently,you have changed the governor and the frequencies of your kernel.
The only solution is to use your nandroid backup for restore your last version.
I'm really sorry but we haven't forum or thread about your device.
I will tried to find something for helping you

i download the rom from the official HP support..(sorry i cant put the link bcause not have 10 posts)so i attach a screenshot.
i dont have back up from nandroid..im just change it and reboot the device..so i dont have the backup :crying:
yeah i search it but no one in the forum talk about this device
apreciate it for your help sir :good:

You need to post the URL of the HP site. Also, without a backup it's going to be pretty difficult. You're going to have to find the factory image somewhere on the web. You did some pretty serious modifications as Ikuza27 eluded to. Good luck

I'm really sorry but I cannot help you more. I've tried searching a link for a factory image or something that it can help you, but except the HP website for support, nothing.
For your next device, don't forget to do a nandroid backup before to do something.
