My wife left the window open near my only laptop that have, and a thunderstorm came through.......well you no the rest. Dead laptop after it completly dried, I get power but a driver is stuck in loop mode, so only the boot screen shows up. Well my question is do anybody on xda developers no how, or no anyone who knows how to change roms using only a wizard. I have a t-mobile mda (waiting for the fall for new pocket pc releases) with current wm6 rom crossbow reloaded 1.7. Would like to change to mfrazz xda6 (the real wizard window mobile 6 rom from ngenetics) rom. I thought I read somewhere that someone changed there rom with their pocket pc from the SD card. Please read my question thoroughly. I no theres a method by using a card reader and entering bootloader.....and so on, and so on. I have no access to any type of computer ( until I buy a new one ), and I need instructions or someone point me into the direction for changing my rom with just my pocket pc. I will continue to search forums, google, or whatever myself until we get and answer to this. Thank you all for reading my new post, and helping out in any form or fashion. Oh yeah I forgot to mention; please do not post or respond with any negativity. I no it say junior member ( noob) next to my users name , but i'm a grown ass man so respect me like one. Remember i'm the senior noob.
This is a little off topic, but have your tried booting your laptop and then pressing the F8 key before the Windows boot screen is displayed? From this screen you can try the "Last Known Good...." or try to boot into safe mode. If that doesn't work, you can try booting from your Windows CD and doing a repair installation of windows? If you can get power and it sticks at the boot screen, then some of your boot files may be corrupted. I'm assuming that you have Windows XP. Hope this helps. I don't know anything about flashing ROMs from the SD card, but have heard something about that in this forum or HoFo.
STOP TRYING TO TURN IT ON!! you're making it worse. trust me.
i work as a computer technician, i fix machines that have been spilled on all the time.
shut it down, take it somewhere to have it fixed. it might be dry on the OUTSIDE, but the inside is either
1.) still wet
2.) corroded chips that are shorting out
the only way to really tell, is disassemble it. take everything apart, REMOVE ALL ELECTRICITY to the computer, and check to see where the liquid is and what damage it has done. if you see corrosion spots, get a soft bristle tooth brush, run the part under water and use mild soap to brush it off. rinse it off, then let it dry for 48 hours minimum.
do not do this with the hard drive, optical drive, or LCD - just PCBs.
i've had dozens of computers come to me that had an entire cup of soda/beer/tea/coffee/water, etc. on it and was able to get it working. Water is the easiest to fix, as there are no sugars or anything to bond to the components.
its not the liquid that causes the problem, its the electricity running through it.
lol at this point i think im more worried about your laptop, and i am pretty sure there is a way to boot off of an sd card but im not sure, im sure somone here will know
h4ck must be a member of the geek squad!
my sony vaio laptop
when I saw my laptop it was soak and wet. I removed the keyboard pad, and unscrewed all the screws. Yes there was water on the inside, and I tried to dry it as much as possible. Went on vacation came back three weeks later. Before there was no power, when I return home I turn on my laptop and voila, it comes. I hit the f8 key and started it from its last known good config. System restarts but a small blue screen appears, then disappears. So I return to the bootscreen option and started it up in safe mode with networking. Everything came on in safe mode in a smaller screen size. I went to start/computer system/vaio recovery. Now this is were I messed up. Insted of using the last good config. check point, I used complete system recovery back to its normal state the way I bought it. all programs and software will be deleted.(just like a hard reset for pocket pc). It did a complete recovery of my hard drive c, and restore everything to factory settings. Now when it restarts a message says its missing some files and to repair this hit the "r" key and insert the windows xp cd-rom disc. I did this but it won't boot from the hard disk for some reason. Then after some time from trying to boot from the cd-rom disc, a small blue screen appears with the message: "A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. The problem seems to be caused by the following file: ati2dvag. The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop. This usually indicates problem with the device itself or with the device driver programming the hardware incorrectly. please check your hardware device vendor for any driver updates. technical information: *** stop: 0x000000EA (0x81cB2440, 0x81E0A440, 0xF896DCB4, 0x00000001) ati2dvag- beginning to dump of physical memory-physical memory dump complete. Contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance." Sorry guys for the long story but thats everything. I know this is a forum about PDA's but i'm just responding to the response. By the way have anybody found anything yet?
I won't flame you, but this was posted in the wrong forum regardless of what ROM you are using to flash to your device. Just keeping things clean.
Yeah, you're on the right track. You need to make a note of the file it says it's missing and the directory path. Then boot using the XP CD and choose r for recovery console. Depending on the number of windows partitions, you may need to choose the correct partition and provide an administrator password. After that you will see a DOS-like prompt. Copy the missing file from the XP CD to the hard drive. The command should look something like this:
expand d:\i386\missingFile.ex_ c:\windows\system32
D: is your CDROM and C: is your hard drive. Make sure you copy it into the directory that you made a note of earlier.
Also, here is a link that talks about an infinite loop problem with ATI drivers http://www.sightsea.com/pghpchd/pages/infinite_loop.html
Hi guys, need your help.
Short version:
i own the XDA Stellar, running vanilla WM6.0. tried to install Windows Live but had to soft reset before it ended. now stuck at the green boot screen.
what besides hard reseting can i do? i don't mind breaking the device if i have to, but i want my data back. particularly my text messages. everything else that i need is backed up.
while am on the green boot screen, if i receive an sms, the phone actually rings. but thats basically all it does. when i connect the USB to my computer, nothing pops up.
anyway i can get access to the files directory?
what i've tried:
- soft reseting a number of times
- remove SD card
- removing Battery for a couple of minutes before putting it back in
- connecting USB cable. "nothing pops-up on computer"
- SMSing it. "it rings"
- pressing all buttons on surface of device.
no success
thanks for any help
Long version:
i own the XDA Stellar, running vanilla 6.0. today i downloaded Windows Live for windows mobile to update the one i already had on my device. while it was installing before it reached the end, i got a pop-up telling me that i was running out of space. and it just stayed like that, progress bar wouldn't move. so i went to the device deleted a couple of pictures and tried to cut/paste the voice notes from device to storage card. it refused to allow it. so i decided to soft reset.
when i did soft reset, it got to the green boot screen and is stuck there.
after along wait, i get a white screen telling me the device can't boot because i might have "turned off the device incorrectly" or installed an insecure software and that my only option is to hard reset and lose everything.
while am on the green boot screen, if i receive an sms, the phone actually rings. but thats basically all it does. when i connect the USB to my computer, nothing pops up.
anyway i can get access to the files directory?
Thanks

Hello,
Surface RT won't boot at all. No spinning circle on boot and Recovery drive is not working. Only Surface logo on screen for several hours.
the usb recovery drive is ok. i have tested it on other surface devices.
Warranty support was declined because of some scratches on screen, so that unfortunately is not an option.
Is there any other way of recovering?
thanks
If you can't even boot to USB? No, not really.
If you actually managed to scratch the Gorilla Glass screen, it sounds like the device may have been pretty abused. In that case there could be internal damage. They really aren't user-serviceable though, sadly. Did you ask for help at the Microsoft store? They may be able to help even if they won't replace it for free.
Power it off.
Turn it on, when the Surface splash screen appears, turn it off.
Do that 3 times, on the 4th time let it boot, it might boot into recovery.
I have tried alot of these steps
but still seem to have issues
is there anyone I can send my surface to who will just wipe it and can deal with bit locker protecting drives?
i made thread mentioning and ex employee was allowed to set up surface rt he was fired didnt give us his password or bitlocker info. So now it seems we are screwed
Have you tried holding vol+ and power for some time? This fixes not booting most times. After that, try power on normally.
same problem with no luck yet
have tried every single step in exact timing , but no luck ... just "surface" logo and cannot get to recovery image that is on my usb drive for the rt version pleasse please help ... i am thinking of an hardware problem that may affect the usb drive , however, the usb led is on meant it gets power
Have you tried these steps?
Surface RT or Surface 2 won’t turn on
thanks alot xkawer for replaying ...
my surface rt is turning on but it stuck on the surface logo .... the real problem is that it cannot pass the logo screen and connot boot from the recovery usb ....
hope to find a solution please ....
I also have a surface rt with the same problem. I took it to the Microsoft store and they said that it would need to be reset. Unfortunately their price is about the same as purchasing a new one. I'm trying to repair it following the steps that Microsoft has posted on their website. My question, am I creating a bootable image correctly on a usb? The steps that I followed were to format usb (8GB) to FAT32. Once format it, I copy and paste the zip file that Microsoft told me to download onto my usb. Now this is the part that I'm confused because the Surface doesn't boot into the USB drive. Am I not formatting the USB correctly or is there something I need to do with that zip file?

Dear android serpent , If you are extracting the zip file content into the USB flash after formatting then your are making the USB absolutely right , I am making the USB in exact way .. It works on other devices but not on mine . That is confusing a lot ...
I really don't know what is the problem .. My device had just restarted and I get in this strange mode . However my USB in 100% working before it got restarted ... No comment !
You may need to mark the flash drive partition as "Active" before you copy the files onto it. That was required in the past at least for many BIOSes to boot off external storage.

Hi; My Surface Pro is doing the same thing after taking the 8.1 update It froze on IE and had to be force shut down. It is out of warranty and I didn't create a backup usb image as I was waiting to install 8.1 before doing so. It's only right that if MS software bricked it they should repair it at no charge.
@ hbatista : your problem has been solved?
same problem, ANY SOLUTIONS?
surface RT..
I have never seen anything other than the surface logo with no "spinning wheel"
I have tried the 3 reboots, booting normally on the 4th...volume up and power for days .....the keyboard boot options (backspace, win key +everything, F8, F11 for the hell of it..) I tried holding down in different sequences every possible combination with power, volume up/down and the windows soft key (onthe tablet)
I have created USB's with a kingston 16GB, a sandisk 8GB, sandisk cruzer 16GB, a USB3 128GB, and a micro 32GB card in a USB adapter. I extrated 2 different zip files to them all after formatting fat32, using diskpart to make the part active. both oft these compressed files were from microsoft that I downloaded after registering the device.
I tried formatting the sticks with a USB format tool as opposed to win 8. I tried 2 other compressed recovery images I found elsewhere. Furthermore I I attempted 2 different ISO files and 2 different IMG fliles using rufus, usbit, and universal USB installer...both 8.0 and 8.1 recovery images/ISO's/ZIPS. At first I observed the access light on the USB Drives blink once right after booting but now no light at all...for the hell of it I even tried to connect it to a win 8.1 machine via 2 different USB-USB cables I had.
Please advise if there are any other options??
thank you for your time...

When did your surface rt break. Mine seem to have done it after a software update this month. I have tried everything as well no luck.
Well the logo means it hasn't got enough power so you may have damaged the battery or charging circuit. that isnt something fixable by most people. Perhaps contact the shop purchased from and conveniently make no mention of the fall, see if they swap it as a faulty device. Have you tried powering it on while connected to the charger? At last you may check out if Windows Boot Genius works.

thank you for your time and reply. I always have it plugged into power when troubleshooting. it does charge and will stay on that logo screen for several days without power. although, i purchased the cheapest power supply i could find on amazon (10.99) , it does charge and holds the charge. I will definately try the windows boot genius. I am an ex navy avionics tech therefore I can perform any component level repairs necessary, I just wanted to wait until it was 100% necessary to crack the case. Was hoping for news of the magic reset button on the mobo or a bios flash option. again, thank you for your time sir..

I had the same problem and could not boot it from a recovery file. In the end (after being told it was a write-off) I had the ICT guys where I work take out the battery and put it back in. It took about an hour to open the unit and as soon as the battery was out and put back in it worked! It was an update that caused this problem.
Just want to know if this worked

I am having same issues, can't boot to recovery except mine goes to blue screen (I formatted the drive)....I was wondering before I crack this thing open if it worked for anyone?
Turning it on and off 3 times Worked like a charm!!!
Back in June, I turned on my TF700 with the dock attached, it started as usual.. I turned on my wifi, opened up my browser to look up plane tickets, then it restarted. I didn't think much of it, and when it loaded up again, I tried to look up tickets again, and it did the same thing. I gave up, closed it and zipped it up in my sleeve. It was a few hours before I got home, and when I took it out of the sleeve, it was quite warm! It was constantly rebooting and there was no way to turn if off. I left it out of the sleeve and let the battery die. I didn't use my tablet for a few days, and when I went to turn it on again, the same thing happened, and has been happening ever since. I have tried to start the tablet while connected to the dock, the wall charger, without the dock, with wifi on, with wifi off, etc. The tablet gets to the lock screen, I unlock it, and I only have about 10 seconds before it freezes and restarts. I am unable to turn off the device, because when I choose "shut down" from the menu, it shows that it's in the process of slowing down, but then the spinning wheel freezes and it vibrates and restarts before it can fully shut itself off. Since I can boot into android, I thought it was something that the tablet is trying to run upon startup that was causing problems. I was able to quickly get to settings and apps, to uninstall several apps, but nothing has helped. I used to have a task manager widget on the home screen, and uninstalled that too.
After doing research into the problem, I found that most people who have boot loop issues or constant restarting, are rooted and are experiencing difficulties with a new ROM. I am 100% stock. I have held down power and volume down. It gives me RCK, Android and Wipe. I have tried cold booting into android, but the same restart loop after 10 seconds occurs. I thought it might have been a bad firmware update that went through unbeknownst to me. So I downloaded the firmware file from ASUS, renamed and flashed it sucessfully. However, no change in the reboot problem. I am running the following version: US-epad-10.6.1.14.8-20130514. I know there's a new version out, but wasn't sure if I should try to flash that yet.
I am willing to try absolutely anything to fix the problem, with the EXCEPTION of wiping data. I know that would be the easy way to go, but I have photos and videos from my best friend's engagement and they are the only copies. If I am able to get my tablet to be stable enough to copy those off, I would then be willing to wipe and have a fresh start. I have tried connecting my tablet to my computer, and it is recognized. After it boots up and I unlock it, then the tablet begins to mount (I'm on windows 8). However, I still only have 10 seconds or so before the tablet restarts, and that's not enough time to even view the folders from the tablet.
It's been 3 months since this started, and I have done lots of research and tried lots of things, but nothing has helped yet. Since I haven't delved too deeply into the dev side of android (I've only rooted my S3) there is lots of android speak that I don't understand fully, or have experience with, like ADB. If someone is willing to offer suggestions on what to try, I am very good at following directions! Thank you for any help or leads you can offer.
Wow - you're in a difficult situation...
You being on stock I can only imagine the bootloop is caused by something you installed.
So if you can access settings and are able to uninstall apps, just keep doing it until you are back to the original stock setup.
Are you sure the files you are trying to save are still on the SD card? Don't know how you flashed 10.6.1.14.8, but flashing a complete firmware package ususally erases /data - although your persisiting bootloop indicates it didn't...... if the bootloop is caused by an app. And I can't imagine what else would cause it.
You could try to do a factory reset in Backup&Restore but you will loose the contents of your /data partition...
You can flash the 10.6.1.14.10 firmware file, but most likely you will also loose your data.
The only way I can think of to replace your bootloader and firmware without data loss is if you try to find a copy of the 10.6.1.14.10 dlpkgfile. That is the OTA update file Asus pushes out to users. It's a patch file, meaning it only replaces/updates new files and leaves everything else alone.
If you find the dlpkgfile on some forum you would have to place it into your /cache directory and reboot - and I don't know if you can copy it to your tablet before it bootloops again.
Unfortunately the reason for your bootloop is probably an app on the same partiton with the data you don't want to loose. Unless you manage to uninstall the culprit I don't see much hope....
Good luck!

Try getting adb access, this should allow us to diagnose the problem you are experiencing.
Tablet side: go to settings, developer options (if it is not visible, tap the build number 7 times), enable USB debugging
Computer side: no idea, they say Windows 8 is a bit tricky to get the drivers installed correctly.
When you have adb running, do "adb pull /proc/last_kmsg" and post the downloaded file - it should contain valuable info about your reboots.

He's bootlooping..... How does he go into settings and turn on USB debugging?
I think the best option maybe to flash a stock Asus ROM from their site but that will wipe all data including those photos......

I have not use this method but you could try.
You need a boot OS tool on your external sd and run it from your external sd so you can access to your internal sd to copy files from there. You can search on the internet and you should find more information on how to use them depending on what boot os you are using.. Good luck.

I was actually able to get usb debugging turned on. It took me quite a few tries, but I did it!
I've never used adb, but here's what I've done so far.. I downloaded the Android SDK and ASUS Pad PC Suite (which contains Asus Sync).
I was able to use the command prompt to navigate to the platform-tools folder and open adb, however when I type in adb devices, it doesn't recognize my device. What steps to do I take from here to be able to use adb to see my device, so I can pull the file to diagnose what's going on? How do I know if I have the right drivers installed so my computer can see my tablet? All I did was install the asus suite. Do I need to do anything further on that end?

What Windows version do you have on your PC?
You can check your drivers in Device Manager. Open it, look for your tablet under Portable Devices and check if the driver has a yellow exclamation mark next to it. You should be able to update/install/uninstall the driver from here.
Try to find out if there is a setting in your Windows version to only allow Microsoft signed drivers and disable it.

Hello All.
So the other day I paid a visit to the local skip, as you do, and I found a Flytouch Superpad 7 in its' box, so I took it home.
Plugged it in and it started to boot up, first screen had "Tablet PC powered by...." then the next screen was of the Android Droid with its' arms folded, it usually freezes here. Sometimes it will go onto a screen with "Android" in the centre, but no further.
So I have tried various combination of pressing buttons to no avail. Cannot access a recovery anything.
I took it apart and found it is a Yones Top Tech BC1003, so have been searching and searching for information and roms etc for days.
What I would like to know is, do you think this tablet is saveable?
I have plugged it into my laptop but it doesn't recognise it, but wouldn't the tablet have to boot to be recognised?
I have read thread upon thread, but still do not understand how I could get a rom onto this tablet if it is not recognised by the laptop and it doesn't show a recovery section where I could boot from a SD Card.
Any advice gratefully accepted. Just trying to save something from the landfill.
Just an update to say I managed to get the tablet up and running.
I ended up going to a lot of foreign language website through Google Translate and found some firmware for this board at the Koncaso site. Burned the .img file and put it in the tablet, which now works again.
