HELP!!! serious problem.... help please!!

Hello there,
I have a serious problem. A while ago i flashed the energy rom to my device and it worked great. Now i can't use my phone anymore because it was a beta version? I've searched the forum, and i saw more of you got the same problem.
And i've read that it's possible to reinstall windows on my device but..
I typed serious import texts with notefolio and windows note creator program thing, i need it for my job,, Is there any way to retrieve those text files? It's not on my SD card, so it must be in the internal memory.. ****
My laptop makes a sound when i connect the USB cable, nut i can't see my touch pro in ''my computer'', it seems it won't connect...
Please please help me i'm desperate
thanks allready
Greatings,
Bouke

Mine just did the same thing and im about to leave the country. Have any suggested new builds?

Energy Rom Craps Out
My phone has also taken the time trial sleep, any help before I reflash. XDA should make it known that acts such as this do not happen again. I have donated to the development of this site, now wondering why & if I will do it again. Please help with a fix other than reflashing.

Moved as not ROM Development.

I dont think theres any way to undo this thing. just happend to me this morning. I was able to get a start menu, but all the apps I start, start under the message.
BUT, since I got enough reminders that this version I flashed was going down, I see not more than to just accept this failure .
So I held down the vol- button en pressed the reset button with my stylus, now I its flashing a new ROM.
Good luck

yea i tried that aswell, but everyting is beneeth the message.
And indeed it's a huge FAIL from the energy rom developer
I'm still hoping for some reactions that may help recovering my valuable text files..
If i flash a new rom it will erase all the data on the phone memory including text files notefolie etc. right?
Greatings

unfortunately yes. as far as i know there is no chance of getting them out of there. but you installed a custom and private made rom - that is to some extend alsways a risk and you should back up all the things you have on your phone when you do this.
good luck

i too want to get a few things out of the phone.
the stuff that still works is htc sense, and anything started directly out of sense, but not any shortcuts to programs.
you can access it by locking the phone, then unlocking it.
it will give me access to sense ui.
so i'm now pretty much looking for anything that's left to help me start a backup program.
any ideas on how to add a program as a service?
maybe with sd autostart.
does that still work?
all we need is to get the phone to run one lousy backup app.
maybe even automated.
we need ideas! ;-)

My phone locks on long end key.
If I press that and unlock again, the expiry message disappears for a while.
Sense and some Programs started directly from within work. Not the home screen links
However, I cannot start programs from links or access the internal memory.
Is there any way to read this while in "boot screen" mode?

If you can get some things to work, then pull your sim card out, and sync to a pc. If the syncing works, set the pc's date back a few days, and see if the rom starts working normally, then back up what you need and re-flash.
If you can't sync, just try to fix the date on your phone. A soft reset may be required.

Doesn't work as Sense crashes when I try to set the date.
Maybe it works for other people.
Sync does not work as that is blocked.
I tried changing the timezone immediately after it locked but that didn't work either.
So I suspect changing the date back wouldn't do you any good.
In other words: I don't see any way to recover any data from internal memory.
I'm going to do a hard reset now as I don't have time for this.
I conclude that whoever decided or implemented this timebomb as is, is a complete asshole and I hope he gets eaten by wolves in his sleep.
Disabling a product after a beta phase and/or forcing customers to update is perfectly fine, destroying their data in the process is unacceptable.

Gee, Office 2010 is a beta release, and came with a time-bomb. Maybe you should call microsoft and tell them to suck it since your custom rom didn't live up to your expectations.

I totally agree with that. I don't have time for it either, and i've already told my supervisor the good news..
Does anyone know a good working smooth ROM without the crappy time bomb thing?

[Q] Android NAND ROM need help

Hi, today i tried to install this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620&highlight=android+2.3). I stuck to this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvS4EvS0PAw), but now i have a problem: i came to the step where i must run the ''ROMUpdateUtility.exe''. I followed the steps and when there should be an install of the new ROM file it's gone from 0% to 100% in like 3 seconds (that was wierd because it should take 10 minutes) , but when it rebooted it simply stop by the white screen with the green HTC logo...i cant even factory reset it. Please help me, what should i do to repair my phone

Have you tried the hard reboot? If so try restarting the device by holding down the down volume and the power button. I had this same issue and after many tries and re-installs the device stared to function again.

i have foxed it all...and installed the android, it works perfect. If there wasnt a problem with the Wi-Fi...can somebody help me with it
And where the hell is the ''Folders'' app so i can install applications onto android!?

suggestions
I admit I am a novice and I attempted to do things I shouldn't have done without research, but I read and read as everyone suggests in this forum. I watched video after video to make sure that I was doing things right. I still bricked my phone, as many people do, but I think I was mislead. I FULLY accept my responsibility for what I did. I would just like to elucidate some shortcomings of this forum without any malice.
You guys have a lot of power! You are very knowledgeable, and we as novice developers, who wish to do fun stuff with our phones, rely so much on your expertise.
I was able to successfully flash Android onto my SD card. It was awesome. I was loving it. But I kept reading that NAND would be much better because it would boot straight to Android without having to enter Window's Mobile first. I read that battery power would last much longer too. So I found out the way to flash HSPL3, MAGLDR, and NAND. It was working fine. But I liked the earlier format of the previous ROM running off of the SD card. So I figured out how to switch to another ROM.
It was on this forum" HTC Leo: > HD2 Android > HD2 Android NAND Development>" that I read in step 2 to "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM." I did, and ended up bricking my HD2. A post-bricking search of what happened revealed that it was apparently my fault that I had previously flashed my Radio to something that led to the system failure. I read somewhere else that if my 3G wasn't working to flash the radio. So I did.
What I am upset about is, that there was no mention made nor warning given in the above forum to ensure I hadn't already flashed my radio to something I shouldn't have. Nowhere on the page is there any information warning of ill effects by flashing to earlier ROM if the Radio was flashed too. I did exactly as I was instructed and flashed to stock Windows Mobile. So I have a heavy mirror as a result. I will try and go back to T-mobile and get something under warranty. They actually told me to come here to learn how to get Android on my HD2.
So my bottom line is just what Uncle Ben (Spiderman) told Peter, "With great power comes great responsibility." If you allow your developers to post phrases like "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM" you should also be sure there are no ramifications for performing such an action.
That's all. I'm still happy with the forum, it enables us lay folk to do some awesome stuff with our hardware. Please try and be more comprehensive when it comes to potential adverse effects. Have another person or committee edit the process and make sure that nothing is left out. I guess that is why it is in the forum format, but as a novice, you don't allow any comments regarding installation so I couldn't post there. Maybe someone else can save another phone if they come across my situation. Possibly add a new policy to have the administrator run through a checklist of things that could go wrong with each step before publication?
Hopefully with your power, you will get thanks and admiration for disasters averted. Keep up the good work!
Thanks,

[Q] Slow and buggy

Hi!
Sorry I'm not sure if i searched properly the forums, but I'm wondering if anyone else haves problems with the original rom ( I think its called stock ) 4.1 from HTC One S. I own the phone from 6 months and before updating the g-sensor randomly stopped working it would only start working again with factory reset ( later I found out with restart also worked, because shutdown doesn't clean memory? ).
I was patient for the update and since I updated I noticed that the phone seems slower, already factory reseted, deleted everything, it no longer seems to bug the g-sensor, but it seems to bug quiet often notification bar stuck at mid screen.
Anyway I was wondering if anyone else haves this kind of problems? should I just send it to the factory, it is still on the guarantee.
Thanks for any answers
Edit: by the way, can't seem to use Swift Key, after a while starts blinking

" ( later I found out with restart also worked, because shutdown doesn't clean memory? )."
You probably have fastboot enabled. Its roughly the same as windows sleep-mode, it saves everything in memory to provide almost instant start up.
There seems to be quite a lot of random problems with the official JB rom. I'd suggest you to try one of the many custom roms available here.

help: crashing (cyanogen mod)

i have a samsung galaxy s captivate i897
i bought it Feb 2012 rooted running cyanogen mod and miui. for the 9months i ownded it it worked perfectly. then al of a sudden it started crashing randomly. most apps force closing. i also get an error messoage coming up that says "device low on disk space, please free up some disk space" - this is the message i see a few days before the apps start to force close. it seems to be a gradual process - isee that message then apps start force closing. for about a week its still useable until the force closing becomes constant and i basically cant use my phone.
when it happened the first time i took it to the local phone repair shop who fixed it but a few months later the problem reoccurred. now it's got the the point where it happens every 2-3 months i take it get it fixed phone works fine for a while then the problem starts all over again. i cant seem to work out what's causing it - doesnt seemed to be linked to installing new apps or anything. also the error message about not having enough disk space i'm not sure what it means but i know that i have 16gb of starage split into internal:1.85gb (1.58available) and external 13.03gb (11.77available) so yeah plenty of space hence i'm not sure why its saying its low.
anyway whenever i get my phone back from the repair shop its wiped everything and i've always just thought that whatever they did (software stuff - to stablise the rom or sth) returned it to facotry settings BUT i'm starting to think they dont actually do anything but factory reset it :/
i'm not up to scratch on custom roms/rooting/flashing stuff like i said my phone was already rooted when it and i dont want to start messing about with it.
i want to know whats causing the problem and how i can stop it reoccuring ?
also i was wondering is it possilbe to wipe out the rooting completely? perhaps not return to stock standard but maybe just use a different or more stable rom.
ps - sorry if any of the terminology is incorrect i hope you can still understand what i'm trying to say.
any help is appreciated.

so!!!
you are saying that that root is causing all these??
thats nt the point.even with root gone I don't think you'll get rid of it. anyway to root simply install SuperSU
and unroot fully.
.
.
and about returning to stock
try smthing based on stock!!!

well no i didnt say it is because its rooted that is causing this i was was asking what is causing it?
like i said the phone worked perfectly for the first 9months i had it and has always been rooted.
and like i said i dont know how to do any tech stuff so "simply unroot fully" doesnt help my much.

Just backup, wipe, and reflash a new rom.

"just" thats the point i dont feel confident enough to do any of that.

not just that i dont feel confident - that i dont know HOW to do it!!
what do you think is causing the problem?
like i said the phone worked fine for the first 9months i had it (not sure how long it had been rooted before that) so why would it suddenly become unstable? i've never did any tech stuff myself and even something simple like perhaps a certain app or sth is interfering (not sure if that's possible/likely) but i cant seem to identify.
like i said all i get is "device low on disk space" despite the fact its not - i guess if i could figure out why it says that and how to fix that problem which seems to then lead to all my apps force closing.

[Q] I9000 Not working due software mess-up

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.​
