Hi, my tablet has been lying around for several months now. This is because i earlier decided to play around with it (other roms etc). Now it's laggy, and shuts down on it's own whenever it's self pleases -_- .
I''ve been wanting to fix it for quite some while now - but it won't connect to my computer. The battery also has a red cross over it. I've tried several other cabels - so that's not the problem I think. It's not a hardware problem from the computer since i've tried it on many others.
So basically to sum up :
- My tablet is laggy as hell
- Restarts on it's own
- And won't connect to the computer (so that I can fix this ****)
I've also tried in download mode etc.
The tablet isn't rooted anymore - that's a big problem since i can't connect to the computer to root it - and update to a better firmware.
SO any ideas? Toss it in the garbage? ^^
I'm sorry if this question has been asked before - haven't found anything similar on the forum.

hey there,
I installed the vegan build beta 3 on my brand new gtab, but now I'm unable to turn on the usb everytime that I connect the gtab to my computer.
If anyone could help that would be great.
p.s. I ran into a bootloop and tried to use dcom's instructions (didn't work) maybe I did it wrong, what did work like a charm was partitioning 2048/256..
[EDIT]- now i see that you have to go into notifications and then turn it on... sorry, still new to android
No worries - glad you got through this issue. We were all new to Android once (and, in my case, that was only a few months ago).
Hello!
A few days ago my phone got wet.
After that I can no longer use the touchscreen. Everything else works fine, including unlocking it using facial recognition.
The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S Plus (i9001), with a replaced screen (Crushed it 6 months ago..).
The phone has been dropped many times, but it always worked fine afterwards.
I've already decided i'm buying a new phone, but I still want to try to recover all my data on the phone (messages and appdata is important to me).
So my question is: Is there some way I can access my files? The wifi is off, and so is 3G. usb is set to mass storage mode, so I can't use kies.
Maybe I can upgrade the rom with something that automatically activates some form of filesharing?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Also: Do you think there is still hope to get the screen working? When It is unlocked I see that one of my apps is "selected" so it would seem the touchscreen is frozen - not necessarily defective.
I've read that a factory reset can help with this kind of trouble, but I don't want to do that before I have my files..
Hey guys!
First off, i was searching through loads of forums and attempted different solutions. Anything to get it back working. This only made it worse
What happened was as follows:
After having CM 10.1 or some version of it (had the OS at 4.3 i believe), my phone was very slow, so slow in fact that i got so mad at it that i almost bit through it. So one day when i was in a tent at the foot of a mountain all alone (not that long ago) i decided to rollback the phone to its original state from backup i made some months ago before i upgraded the OS. At the same time just before this i backed up the current build just in case. Using ClockWorkMod 3pointsomething.
It went through everything and then asked me: Do you want to root this device? (or something in those lines). I, having no clue, clicked one of the million "no" on the screen.
After this it rebooted with errors saying "Can't detect this drive can't detect that drive". In other words, it couldn't detect niether Internal SD nor External SD. While having the Samsung logo being displayed without booting if i didn't go into "Volume Up, Menu Key and Start your tiny engines!".
I thought i could fix it and looked through tremendous amount of internets in attempt to fix it. Neither Odin nor Heimdall Frontend could detect the device even after installing the drivers and samsung kies and messing about with those two in between.
After a while i ended up with "Phone . . ! in a orange triangle . . PC" aka black screen of death, while the phone can go into download mode. Which in my hand is equally useless as no program can detect it still.
Now i just decided to start a new thread even though there is endless amount of other threads but none seem to cover exactly this as i haven't yet managed to fix it. Plus a response on progress is always pleasant as i personally don't know when i succeed unless phone works fully again.
How bad off am i?
Any input will be greatly appreciated! :victory:
Hoping not to have to spend money on a new one and as far as i've gathered this can be solved - Anybody can give me some tips on where to look or what i could try?

First you are posting in the wrong location as i9000 has its own forum here for Q&A and others too
second click on My Android Solutions (link below) and try methods to fix USB connection problems first after that get into download mode and use a rescue kit from MY Android Collections (link below) or follow this to flash a Gingerbread JVU stock ROM
Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.
First post but have been reading this forum for a long time. This be the first time I have ran across an issue that has not been covered already on this forum or really any other. So here's the issue(s):
I have a stock X5 that is stuck on the Minix boot screen. I've made no attempts at modifying this device. This happened after watching some shoddy torrents of Breaking Bad. I had been noticing significant lag with the device prior to the downloads. Nothing other than standard media, social networking and gaming apps installed......there is a task killer on the device, the name escapes me at the moment.
Here's what I've tried:
1. Unplug all external devices (keyboard, external hard drives and removed SD card) and power up. Boot issue remains.
2. Unplug (then replug) power supply and start. Boot issue remains.
3. Hold reset button with pin and power up. DROID laying down with red triangle and exclamation comes up for a minute or two then it goes to the indef boot screen.
4. Held in reset button, power button and had girlfriend plug in the device. (I had no delusions of this doing anything but it stopped the gf's nagging to get it fixed for a while. I'm an electronics tech.....apparently that is the same thing as a programmer in her eyes.)
5. I've left the boot screen on for about 48 hours. Obviously this didn't fix anything.
6. Hooking the device up to my Samsung 7.7 tab. It turns on Android debugging on my tab but I really had no idea where I was going to go once I connected the devices. I just now thought of this and am planning on exploring this option a bit more with some searches. I'm quite sure there are no guides for working with these two specific devices though.
Hooking up to a computer to deal with recovery is not an option for me. I am not in the US and access to computers (other than an Internet cafe) is not an easy task. I am going to bet this is the best fix for most though.
My tab is rooted running PAC ROM if that is worth anything. This is currently my only real option for hooking up to another device. Hope to get some ideas here.
Hmm, so no one has any ideas? If using a comp is the only way can someone post how to recover an X5?

In case you didn't know, there is an (un)official Minix forum. May be they can help. (link)
Also, SomeCoolTech in YouTube has done a video on how to flash Minix X7. That could also be helpful.
Thanks for the reply. I was able to find someone to let me borrow their computer. Flashed the Finless ROM and it got it running again. The thing is not running smoothly though.
I had all kinds of issues then sent it in for rma, new x5 works perfectly, that is likely your best option. could you elaborate on your specific issues I am curious?
Hi people at XDA,
I recently got a Doogee DG2014 from Hong Kong, and had a great time with it. Till I tried changing the fonts with HiFont, then it didn't want to boot up at all - stuck at the boot screen.
Now, I've downloaded all the needed software to fix this issue--- downloaded a new ROM, SP Flash Tool, and USB drivers. But my problem lies somewhere else now, My PC doesn't pick up my phone at all. Not even a sound when I plug it in. I can access the recovery menu on my phone easily, but I still just can't seem to figure out what's the issue with my phone not wanting to get recognized by the PC and such. This happened even before the phone got bricked. However, the cable is not the issue either. I can plug in my tablet and it picks it up immediately.
Any suggestions, please? :/
