Help requested before I am carried away to the funny farm. :crying:
I flashed the wrong rom ( phone instead of tablet ) and completely screwed up. Tablet charges OK but only boots to first splash screen and then powers off. Unfortunately this device does not have a external volume control so unable to do a standard get out of jail sequence. According to info I have found if I put the power switch to lock and press reset button for 30 seconds then plug into pc device should be found and windows will ask for a driver. So far so good, windows 8.1 would not load any android driver that I could find,Microsoft wanted $99 to sort, so had a thought and created a windows 7 live usb stick and hey presto when I plugged into pc tablet found and Android composite adb interface installed. BUT I still can not do anything with it. ADB can not see device (i presume because it is switched off ? )
I do have the manufacturers rom to get back to basics and nothing on tablet that I am bothered about so could any of you kind experts offer any suggestion as to how I can get rom onto device or is it a case of the BIG hammer and joining the ghost riders in the sky.
I have spoken to Archos who are a complete load of ********* ( If I put what I really thought I would be banned for life ) short answer was do not support that device anymore but if you would care to purchase one of our new machines fromthe web we could offer a 10% discount.
I have also tried RKAndroidBatchUpgrade and that seems to find the device but fails the test before flashing.
Many thanks in advance if anyone can assist

Hi,
That's a tough situation. Often flashing a rom from a different device can mean doom. However, I suggest you ask for help here, as I can't find any relevant info on XDA for your device...

Good luck!

Hi All,
I'm Jack Droid and I'm a new member.
I have a Samsung Smartphone model S7390.
Surfing into the internet, I understood that the android development for this device is not so interesting.
Maybe because that device is not so appreciated but anyway, I have this model!
Moreover, I did the root and I found an CWM recovery that it's ok for it but what I have never found, is a custom rom.
My question is : do you know if exist a device that could be very similar to Trend Lite S7390 so that I can use a rom for that and try to flash into my device ?
Many thansk for your attention and waiting for your kind reply.
All the best
Max
You are right there isn't much development on this device. You may wish to pose a question in Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and one of the experts will respond if there is a Rom.
I will also provide advice from my colleague @demkantor. It is very rare that you can flash a ROM meant for one device to another, for the most part you can never do this and attempting can lead to a brick.

Hi Perseus71,
many many thanks for your kind reply!
Considering the situation of development on my device,I'm already lucky to have found a CF Root and a CWM recovery that working well !
Anyway, I would like to try a custom rom because I like to try new solution and find better perfomance as possible!
Moreover, I found inf into the web but I didn't find a device that was the same as mine,
The only quite similar is S5820 that has good development but it is dual core cpu if I remember well...
You are better helped by specific experts if you post the question on the forum I linked.
On my first attempt at installing a custom ROM (It was a cyanogenmod which I made sure was compatible with my phone through the CM forums), I think I completely ruined my phone and need some help. I followed a video tutorial and decided to have a go with a ROM installer, I uploaded the ROM and Gapps to my SD card and through the app I put it to motion. Little did I know that after the first reboot I get stuck with a an img of the android root with a red triangle and an exclamation point inside(I wish I could post an image on it but I can't link until I get 10 posts apparently) , and hasn't changed since then. When I try to turn on the phone it simply won't turn on and displays that image, which I guess can only be because all data was wiped. Is there anything I can do to fix it or must I contact the seller to try and get it replaced? Also, would it get replaced or would I get a slap on the face because the warranty doesn't cover these endeavors?
I see that there is no forum for your device. Hence may I request you to post in Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
So that you can get advice from the right experts ?

Didn't realise the forum was there, I'll post there then. Thanks mate!
See the original thread here:

I'm still trying to recover this tablet from my "enthusiasm." I have a rooted. running- fine unit of the identical model. Is there a way I can clone the entire contents of the good one's memory into the non-responsive one from a Windows machine? The bad one is still alive, just in a coma.
Thanks again.
Bob
I'm sorry, you've posted where we pointed you....nothing more Assist can do.
We're here to help members navigate the site, not troubleshooting.
If you aren't getting responses...it's likely cause no one can help unfortunately.
Search the web, contact the manufacturer for stock firmware and flashing instructions.....if that all fails....you are probably out of luck.
Thanks for understanding.
Hey all I'm a Noob sorry,not sure if you guys can assist or if I'm in the right forum. I purchased an android project from Chinavasion (DROIDBEAM PROJECTOR) worked great for about one year. Now when booted all other source input vga, hdmi, usb, av, works and projects the video/ image however the android source when selected won't boot. I tired holding power + vol up but nothing happens is there a way to restore or recover/reinstall the android os.
NB: The website offers no support or firmware for this. I did contact them but because I purchased via eBay I was unable to get any sort of assistance.

Sorry ... I can't find anything related to your Android projector on xda.
But you can register on xda and ask either in the [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly] by dagger thread, or in the [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly. by immortalneo thread.
There you may get better advices.
Thread closed. Thank you!
I've tried almost all the solutions and looked everywhere but haven't found yet how to fix it.
Anyways, when i connect the S4 to my Lap it only charges and i've already enabled USB Debugging ( I've tried connecting another s4/HTC and thy all worked)
So i think the problem is from the phone itself,
I really hope someone could help me with it.
