thanks a million 4 being interested...... I have posted my question there n havent gotten a favourable reply..... Well i will try again 2 update with kies n leave it 4 as long aspossible n if nothing happens, then i guess i will hv 2 do a hard reset n try again...... I really dont want 2 use odin as someone suggested in d forum..... Even though i formatted my sgs, i still see all ,y application icons but cant use a whole lot of them cos their program files arent there..... When i try again and i cant update and i do a factory reset n still cant update..... I will definitely let u know

just decided to show u some of the screen shots of my kies and the screen i get stuck up in

i have finally done a factory reset and am still facing the same problem ................i think its just hard luck.........
well, something funny i thought after a factory reset the phone was gonna go back 2 its original state..........i dont think i remember seeing that superuser icon when i bought the phone...........does that mean am still rooted cos i still see d superuser icon...........maybe i need 2 unroot then if am still rooted?????????? what is the best way to unroot ............am just confused

ouch!!!! your phone rooted?¿?¿?ensure you because if you have the device rooted you can´t update via kies...
i seen your screenshots and the firmware that you have seems the factory WEE OFFICIAL RUU for SGS. seems well for to update it
for to know if you have your device rooted..
1--download TERMINAL EMULATOR
2--put in the terminal emulator (write):
"su" (enter)
then your device may to turn to you a warn of superuser permission and you must to acept... then the blue console shoult return to you "#"
ensure of it please and post
EDITid you buy the telephone new Or you did someone sell it? if you was buy the device new, its imposible that its rooted

Thanks again i think ama try n unroot it but i just hp i can do that d software u r talking about, does it unroot????? So u mean i cant update thru kies if am rooted?

Try using a different computer. I could not get it to work on Vista but my old Xp computer did it with no problems

Thanks again i think ama try n unroot it but i just hp i can do that d software u r talking about, does it unroot????? So u mean i cant update thru kies if am rooted?

maybe it´s the better solution because if you are SURE about you have the factory official rom, unrooted and another security of the device not disabled its strange that don´t obtain permission for to flash

[Q] One Week trying to save a P920 and Failed [ Help Appreciated ]

Hello Everyone,
So I've been dealing with a P920 for the last 7 days trying to Flash it and it's not working.
1- Device is booting to Android but all applications are crashing ( unexpected error com.x.x ) force close.
2- I tried LG recover mode, phone flashed but once successful and rebooted, same error upon loading desktop.
3- Tried rooting the phone with SuperOneClick2.3 ; Rooting successful, upon reboot, rooting is lost
4- Downloaded KDZ original firmware V21A Europe based from lg-firmware site and used offline installation ( shttps + modified host file etc..) . Installation successful and flashing is OK; rebooting = same error on startup.
5- Downloaded firmware V10B and flashed it successfully. Rebooted, phone version is still showing V21A !
6- Rooted phone + installed CWM -> successful, rebooted, it's gone.
Now this is the first time since 10 years that I get into such thing and the device is getting me on my nerves.
Any idea or advice is much appreciated!

Well
Looks like a hardware issue. ROM, RAM, Internal memory. U need to find a way to delete partitions and re do them somehow. Have no idea if there is a software for that. I had it for my SGS. It should help.
Just repartition whole internal memory.
UPDATE:
Here you go ! Good Luck ! and tell us did it worked for you
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1509195
Remember not to switch internet with external memory or u will brick it totally!

Great, I will give it a try thanks.
Do you think I will have to delete all partitions and create them again ? or I should only specific ones ?

Have no idea. Try to make some research I don't want to give you wrong answer. Should be only one where rom data is, but I'm not sure.

Hello MinedSafe; As I mentioned earlier, whenever I root the device and reboot, it's not rooted anymore. It is not possible to install CWM ( changes are not applied )
I have managed to root the device and tried the parted command, I get command not found.
I have noticed that once I get into the stock recover and wipe everything, I do not get the first welcome screen to setup the device, it's booting with the same error.
I have started to lose hope. Device is no longer under warranty

Have you try to recover it from LG mobile support tools ?

It looks like the partitions are damaged or eprom/rom ( no commands ) memory is gone. So the only way is to send this to LG service where they can upgrade/rapair with their 'hardware' tools. If you try on you own you might get to a stage where even they wont be able to fix it.
What kind of software you where putting in to it ? Froyo or GB ?

Another person, so its now more likely then when upgrading the partition table was screwed up. It could be a mistake in addressing the memory when flashing.

Thank you so much buddy I have successfully Unbricked my G700 using this

Is the Ascend G700-U00 ROM supported on U10?? or does it brick the phone?? looking at the specs, both engines seem to be alike so i have a feeling that it might be supported... never the less, its a new phone and i dont want to mess it up

hi,
I have a Huawei Ascend G700-U10 phone. I rooted it and put Go Launcher and uninstalled the Huawei Home default one. Now today suddenly all google apps like gmail, hangouts and play store stopped working. Internet connection was perfect as i could open any website on my phone, so i thought of hard resetting the phone. I went to setting -> back and restore -> reset my phone -> erase everything and clicked it. Now the phone rebooted but couldn't able to sign in to gmail account. So i rebooted again and skipped the sign in part, but now as I had removed Huawei Home, i couldn't see anything on my phone except the notification bar. I had already took the backup of my all apps with Titanium Backup before resetting. Now for the third time when I rebooted it, it's stuck on the Huawei logo like bootloop(may be because I entered into recovery after resetting and cleared the cache and wiped the data & cache partition).
Now I want to get my phone back in the way it was(working fine with Go Launcher Pro and other apps and settings) How to do that? Or else if it couldn't be done then atleast guide me how to get the Huawei home screen(and default factory settings and apps which were there when I had bought the phone) back so I can go ahead and again download those apps or could restore them from the backup. Do i need to reflash something or what? Please its my humble request, kindly help me out. I'm waiting eagerly for your reply with resolution... as my phone is good for nothing in this state. Stuck on bootscreen and had already removed default Emotion UI of Huawei. Pls help.. I would be grateful to you.

Sorry dear, this phone does not support 4G, and for the upgrade we all including myself will have to wait till the company wakes up, while for the volume problem you can make it more loud by going in engineer mode of the phone and for that you will have to enter this code (*#*#3646633#*#*) without pranthsis in the dailer of your phone, you will get the engineering mode and from there you can up the volume of the speaker and some other things can also be done from there, but be careful this can also brick your phone if you do something wrong to it.

Help on Xperia Z3 Right channel/Bottom speaker extremely low volume

Hi, can someone please help me
I rooted my phone like 2 weeks ago, the sounds were perfectly fine until I noticed that it became lower yesterday.
I don't know what happened. It was not dropped nor got wet. The volume suddenly became lower
I think it's the lower speaker.
It's fine when I use my earphones. I also tried to max all the volume thingy in settings.
Can someone help me to fix it?

UPDATED: I've been trying to figure out my phone's problem for the past weeks. I even started a thread about it [you can find it here].
I found out that the problem is the right channel or the bottom speaker.
I've been looking around and found out that some experienced the same.. No one said anything about solutions and what not.
Anyone here experiencing the same problem? If yes, did you do anything to be able to fix it?
I tried factory reset and flashing my phone. Nothing friggin happen.
I wanna know if I could resolve it on my own before I send it to the shop for service >.< (which is friggin far from me).

Hmm.. I can only advice few things.. But you should backup your stuff and have long process.
1. Factory reset as first measure.
2. Use PCC to repair your phone
3. Flash other firmware
If it is software it will sort our by this, if it is hardware, then mate you need to send it to Sony center.
