THANK YOU! You saved my phone. I can only get it to flash the Wind mobile version but that is a great start and my phone is usable now.

many thanx
only v11h worked out (link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594396)

My problem is that I'm able to go in NVFlash mode and do the G2X_V21E_00_NVFlash or the One-Click-G2x-recovery but when I try the S/W Upgrade mode, the G2x screen show me the S/W Update image but no devices are found in Windows XP.
I tried with different cables and different PC (even MAC) but no sign of any device connected.
Of course the drivers are installed, if I connect the phone when Android boot up all the devices (modem, serial port, USB...) are properly found.
I probably have an half bricked USB port (I just replaced the hardware connector board, so HW is not the issue) since when the phone is running Android I'm not able to charge it.
To re-enable the charge I go in the hidden menu (1809#*999#) and switch Port Settings> from AP USB to AP UART
I really think is a BaseBand problem (I'm stuck with MAR 27 2011) but without S/W Update working I'm not able to update it!
Someone have suggestions?
Thanks.

I have exactly the same situation, in S/W Update mode no devices are found by Windows, but when boot in Android all devices are found. If you found some solution please publish.

Thank you, Guide worked on my dead phone. Now is live.

I was only able to revive it to the Canadian software and baseband but I already sold my phone so I'm off to bigger and better devices hahahaha

Finally my partially working G2x is restored to working condition but as mention by others i could only flash the Wind mobile baseband. Even though its usable, the voice quality isn't much clear.
Any suggestions for improving that?

Holding both buttons vol up + down and plugging in the computer while the battery is out is to install the apx drivers i.e nvidia drivers. It is supposed to remain black. not having s/w upgrade screen is not an issue.

Have you tried the suggestion at least?
Look for the original ROM of your device and find a WINDOWS XP computer and try to reflash with those 2 as suggested from above.

Do you know?

I don't think it would work. The Mamaich method is for a different problem. Yours clearly is due to Windows Vista incompatibility. I had read a couple of this type of thread in the past and the only solution was already given to you.
do you know where is the original rom?

Sorry
I have a qtek9000
Before I tried my 1st upgrade I download the official ROM just in case.
I thought I had it but I can't find it. I have one copy on the PC at work, but I will only return there next Wednesday, so no big help.
I remember see a post were a member informed that he had an ftp with all the ROMS. Maybe some one remember the address. If I get, it i will post it.
Cheers.

i was trying to upgrade rom downloaded from o2 for my xda 2i i have same problem as previous guy i have tried to load from windows xp machine but get connection error 101 my screen is blank apart from usb and v1.01 can anyone help?
sounds to me like it might be as simple as a dead battery.
1. what happens when you try to charge it with the wall charger?
2. have you tried switching batteries?
3. you still haven't said what you were doing with the device before this happend
4. this is totally unrelated to WM6 Forum, you shouldn't have posted this here
when you put your universal on usb with a pc on xp there is a detection? or not and are you sur that there isn t any write on the screen .
because i have the same pb in 2006 an ithink that my universal is dead an aftrer 2 day i put the universal on the light and i see v101 if you don t see to the light you don t see it because the backlight don t work.

It do not enter boot loader with light + power + reset and show no signs of life.
The light is off.when i push reset button flash the red light.
When connected to USB, PC reports "USB device not recognised"
I want a original rom for qtek9000 for test.
Anybody have this rom?
When I bricked my XDA Exec by means of hung program during the upgrade, I had: no reaction to normal Reset, no entry to Bootloader - basically a brick.
I did LeftSoftKey + RightSoftKey + Reset to do a *hard* reset (everything was lost anyway), and after that I could see "Serial... v1.01" Bootloader notification. When you connected that to a computer, it changed to "USB... v1.01" prompt.
So I just took JWright's image, and re-flashed it.
Guess what? It detected I had no image/extRom/RadioRom whatsoever then offered to re-flash them. I knew I'm OK when Radio upgrade progress indicator started to move.
It took me to get to another machine first, however. My Vista machine totally screwed up things, whereas my home XP managed to do the job.
Sitting on JWright's 2.02.02 now - very thoroughly made ROM, love Voice Command integrated with it instead of crappy Cyberon's software.

[Q] Need help getting my T959V connected for flashing/rooting.

Problem: Cannot get my Samsung T959V to connect to the computer in order to flash/root. Always gives the same "USB Device Not Recognized" error when I plug it in to the computer.
My Progress: Before you guys throw this questions out, let me tell you what I have tried so far. I have been trying to get this damn thing connected to the computer for about 3 weeks now. I have sat down on my computer going through the xda forum in detail trying to find an answer. I know the process of flashing and the xda contributors have some great guides to help us along the way, a big thanks to all ur hard work, but no matter what, I cannot get the phone in download mode or get it connected to the computer.
* I have read the Download Mode post and tried all 5 ways without luck.
* Have read all things related to Keis Mini and how it sucks when it comes to the T959V and other ppl have had the same problem.
* Have tried connecting in Keis mode, usb debugging mode but still the same error.
If someone can help me get my phone connected to the computer, I am sure I can take of the rest since everything is available on the SGS4G Bible, thanks for that also.
Is there anything I have missed or not tried yet? Please help. Thanks in advance for anyone who reads this post as it is my first. Usually I don't have to post since all the documentation is always up-to-date and available but this problem is killing me
Additional Information: Bought the phone from a cell-phone store I use to work at. Has Android 2.3.6 on it. Have done the factory reset and tried to get it to connect, no luck. Not sure if it has been flashed before, pretty sure it hasnt but the flashed download mode method didnt work also. Have android-sdk installed and have tried pointing the .inf file to the google usb-drivers in the sdk, no luck. Download both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers for this phone from multiple locations, still no luck trying to connect. Have also tried multiple computers and multiple v9 cables, no luck.
Have you installed the Samsung drivers? You mention google drivers but samsung has it's own. You should be able to find them in the noobs guide to Odin thread. DL mode should work as well regardless of what drivers you have installed. Pull the battery, plug usb into computer, plug phone into usb, hold down BOTH vol + and -, insert battery. I've never not seen that method work.

Yup tried both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers on multiple computers. Tried the download mode method u said also. Trust me have tried everything I have read about and know, but no luck.
But the phone charges fine? Could be a bad USB port. Or partially bad. Have you tried a jig? If that doesn't work I'd say your hardware is screwed up somewhere.

Yup it charges fine. Both when I plug it into the wall and the computer. What's a jig? Don't think I have tried that yet. If something can let me know for sure its a hardware problem, then I will stop obsessing over this, hahaha. Thanks for ur help btw.
A jig is a nifty little device that plugs in to your USB port on the phone and then gets you to DL mode. Their mostly used to recvover from bad flashes(like flashing the wrong phones kernel). Here's a link:

Awesome bro. I will see if I have time to make the jig, if not i will just order it.
Also, is there any way to flash/root without DL mode or USB debugging or using Keis? My recovery mode works but that's all. Was wondering if there was a way i could flash/root from the 'apply update from sdcard' option in the recovery mode?
Seems like a driver error have u tried one of the heimdall one clicks http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358498
They will put u back to stock with a modified rooted kernel .
If anything try and manually point to the drivers in device manager. Or download android sdk and use the google drivers ?

There was with Froyo but with GB it's all been put into the kernel. So not that I'm aware of. However one of the GB leaks changed the key mapping of the phone. I forget which one but that might be the issue. Go to settings>about phone>build number and let me know what that says. post the base band as well.

As requested,
Build number: GINGERBREAD.VUVKJ6
Baseband version: T959VUVKJ6
Well that is the official GB release so now I officially have no idea why you can't get into DL mode. Get the jig and let me know if that works. Good luck.

Will do. Thanks for ur help.
I downloaded the terminal emulator app and tried doing 'reboot download' but says 'operation not permitted,' any way to get around that? Or any other non-button or non-adb way to get into download mode? Other than the jig? Or is it possible to get su privileges on an unrooted device for the 'reboot' command to work in the terminal emulator app?
It's giving you "not permitted" because you don't have root. Have you tried Super One Click to root? If you can get SOC to root it you can use terminal to force DL mode.
If you haven't hears the link.

DL 2.3.1. It should come with the android drivers as well. Worth a shot. If it doesn't work it doesn't damage the phone at all.

Im trying it now but for SOC to work, i have to have the proper drivers to get my phone connected. Will see whether the drivers that come with SOC work for my phone.
No luck with the SOC 2.3.1 drivers. They r the same as the android-sdk drivers
Will try the jig. Hope it works.

Im sorry I am having mouse issues that deleted part of my response..
Sometimes a residual driver will not allow you to properly install the drivers. I had a LG driver from my old phone that was conflicting with Samsung driver.
Also this is a new root process. I do not know if it will work or not. But Hell its worth a try right?

Cant access Recovery Mode

Hi Guys,
I have my friends i9003 with me. Its having a weird problems :
1) It successfully boots after 5-6 tries, but eventually hangs after a min on home screen.
2) Its unable to enter recovery mode.
3) It can enter download mode, but its not detectable by odin/PC. As soon as i connect to PC, it shows usb device not recognized. I have tried 2-3 different pc's, uninstalled/reinstalled kies/samsung drivers etc. On the same pc my SGS1 & SGS2 can connect without any problems. So i guess the problem is with i9003. (So i cant flash anything on it)
4) And the last but not the least.....it cannot be charger (tried pc usb / charger). But the battery seems ok, as i can charge it using other phones and dock charger.
..........any help and advice will be really appreciated.
have u tried the hard reset button at the back between the camera and speaker.
I've a I9003L with the same problem (it's carrier locked), I think it has no recovery at all !
Maybe flashing CWM

Just wanted to make sure you didn't have a problem as obvious as I had. I had similar issue when i tried my micromax cable with this phone.
Well, you'll need some expert's advice now.
Looks liek i found the problem, its same as many i9003's are having. Internal memory card corrupted !!! Have found some risky solutions, but will try them, cuz the phone is already out of guarantee !
i had also faced the same problem but i was unable to do it with that solution u can refer my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735718 and i have given my mobile to the service centre for replacing motherboard

so i tried formating /system/cache/data still no red nor regularbootup

now im on my laptop trying to go back to stock and Download mode it cant even show the option its just samsung logo and it cant even be recognized by my laptop tried uninstalling everything that relates to samsung and fresh install kies and samsung drivers but no luck tried heimdall/odin it doesnt go it cant even recognize my phone :crying::crying:
i need help im pretty close to darkness here :crying:
THANKS
btw my laptop is running windows7 64bit
Try pulling the battery then put battery in and hold volume up and volume down then plug in USB cable and see if it goes into download mode. If it doesn't the ONLY two things that will possibly work is a USB jig or getting a memeber who can JTAG it and recover it for you.

Sometimes it's just a matter of waiting and perseverance. Try disconnecting your phone from the computer, taking the battery out, leaving it for 10 mins. & then coming back and trying again.

Emish X700 Android TV box KK 4.4.04

Hi I bought on ebay android tv box called Emish X700. Once i went for holiday and disconnected TV box from power outlet. After 2 weeks i came back home and when i turned it on TV box get stucked with picture of dead android without any option. I tried to do reset with toothpick for 10 sec in hole but with no change. when i googled a bit i found tools and firmware which helped me to restore this TV box to factory state and to be able to use it again. That's why i'd like to share it with users with same or similar problem.
Firmware + Flash tools + Drivers
Steps.
1. download attached files
2. unpack it
3. follow instructions from document in "X700 upgrade" folder
4. in case your PC can't detect your device use "Android Tool" flasher with firmware from "X700 upgrade" folder
5. after successful flashing device will reboot and will be booting for about 15 mins, so be patient
Where can I find Android Tool?
I did the step but in the program for firmware update the label does not become Green, so can't detect the device
Android tool is possible to download from link in 1st post. to get green status in program you have to plug usb cable connected already to your computer to your box with pressed resset button for abbout 5 secs.
I did for 10 seconds but nothing happens
Edit: it work, thank you very much for the guide!!
need you help

You have to use the tool for flash, not the program where the label should become green.

Read my previous post!!
I get the error IDB failed in android tools, what can I do?
Thanks for this! I've been searching everywhere.
Device not recognized using the tools.
I have an Emish 700 android box. Works great WHEN it's working.What I mean is that now and again the red light simply won't click on to blue? I've tried switching it off and on and disconnecting it, reconnecting it... over and over again. After a day or so, all of a sudden, poof it comes on blue when connected. I'm ready to throw it out and buy something new. I tried the tools above, but my computer won't recognize the device? Does it need to be plugged in and turned on showing the blue light to work? Thanks!
Thanks for the software and drivers, my device now is alive again.
for those who don't work properly the reset button, I was in the same situation, searching on google reset for RK3128 devices, I find a solution, do a short circuit between 8-9 Pin on NAND chip with the USB connected.
Install the drivers attached at the link from djmaj0, flash the update image with Android Tools, and now working perfectly.
PD: i flashed with Win10 x64 and no problems, don't need W7 or W8
Thanks again djmaj0!
After flash
After the flash, is the Android still 4.4.1? or updated to 5.0 or higher?
I have emish x700. However unable to identify the toothpick hole as no click on/off apparent. Im assuming the hole on back between the usb ports. Can you confirm this or where it is. My device is frozen on the emish screen and will not proceed further. Thanks

Yes you're right. The reset button is hidden in hole between 2 USB ports.

Hi. After flashing kitkat will remain as the rom is almost same as original. Unfortunately its not pre-rooted, but i have done it with kingroot app after flashing.

Thanks Djamjo
On my device unable to feel any pin through that hole. Saw posts elsewhere that you can use the on/off switch and volume control. Do you / any one know about this, also hole underneath the box whick on left out of line to other holes??.
Have downloaded the files. Can you confirm unpacking is same as extracting or unzipping ?. And as havent got to instructions yet do I need to copy the files to a usb or do everything from the laptop.
What is a short circuit between 8/9 pins on nand chip as advised above, and roughly how one would one do it.?
Sorry this is all a learning curve, hence delay. Thanks
For flashing firmware is required the DC-IN 5V to be connected?
So I found out that we have to connect the box with USB3. But in the flash process I get the errore Download IDB Fail. Anyone had this?
I know it's an old post, I successfully upgraded my emish x700 who had power on issues, now I see two types of memory partitions, phone about 1GB and internal_sd about 6GB. Why? Before upgrade I remember I had only one memory (think so) and I didn't have full memory issues when installing new apps. Who can help me?
