First im not sure if im posting in the right spot. if im not please let me know via message and move if needed. Anyway here is goes.
Ok so a little background on whats going on.My phone is a SCH-R530X.. (Note the X. Its the generic version) CDMA on MobileNation... I was in the Service Mode on my galaxy and layed it down on the table. My son picks it up and starts pushing things on it. When I got back I had no service what so ever. It wouldn't connect to a tower at all. After going through the service menu tring to figure out what he changed with no luck, I flashed using Kies. No luck with that. I did some research on it and tried a few things. Finely after failed attempts, I ran across the ##786# that is a return feature that basically dumped some things and restored it to factory. After doing that I finely got service back but no internet or 3g icon that is usually there.. I have tried restoring it, doing *228 activation with no luck. Something got messed up and will not let my internet... I'm good when it comes to doing things like codes settings and flashing so i know how to do that. I just dont know at this point what to do and im asking for help here in hopes to get it back to normal. I also forgot to mention that i took it to the phone company and the 2 people i talk to there didn't know nothing when it come to it. The first time i took it up there it was not working at all and he said he tried everything and that hes sure it was service bricked. Then after i did the ##786# thing i took it back to him to see if they could get the internet going. He was like, I wish i knew what you did to fix that part of the service cause i tried everything and bla bla...... The only thing they know how to do is activate them and dont know crap when it comes to troubleshooting.... Anyway please help.....
There use to be firmware here for it but i see its gone from this site. If i could try maybe reflashing as much as i could i would but i cant find the right firmware for the phone.

I just have the worst luck. Ive been looking into buying a cingular 2125 for awhile, researching and discovering the relative simplicity of unlocking and such. that was awhile ago, and ive purchased a few other phone instead since then. Anyhow i finally got one yesterday figuring that the methods would still be working, but no such luck.
Does anyone know how long spv-developers.com has been down, of if\when it will be back up?
And to make matters much worse i decided to try an alternate method ( aka http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412139 ) , and have seriously messed up the phone i believe.
upon booting phone with sim installed i get the "Data Crashes. Please contact your service provider"
I was able to flash over different firmwares but the same error comes up, so i went back to a cingular firmware ( not sure if its the same as the original version ).
From what i can tell the cid block is messed up?
I am wondering/hoping that is spv-services ever comes back online it can help me out with this. If anyone has any solution or help or answers, it would ease my mind so much. Thanks in advance
Update
I went ahead and paid $36 bucks to imei check and it fixed it right up.
Then i checked spv-developers and its back up again. lol
Whats the odds of that? but i dunno if spv-services would have been able to fix it anyhow.
The luck continues.
Hi. This is my first time posting. I apologize in advance, im going to come across as a noob.
I got tired of waiting for google to get 2.3 to the N1 users. I decided it was time to unlock and root my phone, after all thats what it was designed for. Up until this point the phone was stock with all updates. I thought one touch root no longer worked. I dont know why i thought this. I used a guide to work through it. I cannot post links otherwise i would. ilikemygooglephone . com is where it came from
Everything worked according to this guide until I completed it and powered my phone on for the first time. I thought I was going to see a stock wiped nexus one...Instead I got shafted.
The phone reboots randomly. It happens quickly and unpredictably.
Notification bar will never slide down. If i try to the phone lags but never shows notifications.
No 3g
No wifi
The phone says I have no service (selected network tmobile unavailable) although I can still make and receive calls.
The sd card will not mount. I cannot access it on the phone. When pluggen into my laptop the phone will charge but wont give me the option to access the sd card.
At times the graphics are buggy and dont operate properly
There are probably other problems that i am forgetting but I think this says enough. Since i cannot access the SDcard I really dont know what to do.
Im sorry if this thread is in the wrong place or happens to be a previously answered question. I just really like my phone and I hope its not wasted. Can someone tell me what I did wrong or how i can get this right.
YEAH i noobed it.
I freaked out on the above issue for about 5 hours. Now I believe i have everything back to normal. My problem was i didnt load the proper superboot. Once i found the FRG83 one and redid the process using that instead it worked fine. Either i was using the wrong superboot or i had a corrupted download somehow.
Feels good to figure it out on my own though....i feel...less noob.....NAH
First of all I'm a "noob" when it comes to the ins and outs of the whole mobile phone rooting idea and processes. My uncle got me on board with this and is currently 700mls away...
Back ground on the phone, its a samsung epic 4g and it was rooted, I hadnt added any roms onto the phone. My initial attempts to do so after driver downloads and youtube videos etc...I had a hiccup at one point and had to reset the phone back to factory using odin. Very helpful by the way, saved my backside. I was able to get the phone rooted again and recovered the rom that I had saved on my gf's phone. My last attempt at getting a rom on her phone via attempting to change her eco5 version to ext4(I believe thats what i needed to do in order to get the syndicate rom on there) failed miserably. Either I didnt follow the video correctly or there were some pre-reqs that I hadnt covered prior to my attempt.
Long story short the odin attempt was taking extremely long and my phone got disconnected in the loading process. Her phone was showing up this danger sign with a phone/exclamation mark/and a pda...bad stuff. It finally let me reset it and i had what seemed to be her old rom...but with NO SERVICE! How do I get service back to her phone or am I screwed?? Someone, anyone please help me, let me know that there is some sort of full factory reset or something!! please...until then, ill have to break the news to her. I have full insurance and looks like it might end up being used.
A desperate user---
Don't worry if its just not getting service then you can get the apn settings for your carrier and add them manually that's what i had to do once.

So yeah I dont really know crap about most things, so I need help to prevent me from having to buy a new phone.
So a few days back my XT907M got the new 4.4.2 update. It worked fine for a couple days then it went into a boot loop. It had done this a few weeks before the update but it snapped out of it somehow.
It will not let me go into recovery mode, but I could get it to go into fastboot, so I did some googling and decided to try my hand at reflashing it. I had trouble getting my PC to verify a connection to the phone. I tried getting different drivers, but again i dont know what the hell im doing so i had not luck.
I took the phone to a place called World of Wireless here in Minneapolis to see if they could fix it. They told me that they went in and deleted two bad lines of code, but since the new fastboot files arent available for 4.4.2 that there was nothing they could do because the phone will not let them go backwards.
is there anything I can do, or am I just going to have to buy a new phone?
Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.
Ok so I bought a lg tribute 2 back when they had just came out I believe they had only been on the market for 4 days or something..... anywho I was reading up on rooting phones and I wanted to do it.... but first I used my husbands phone as a test pig which he had a s3 and what do you know I did it right the first time I used odin.....then it was my turn and what do you know I did it! But the problem was even tho I read about 100 different articles about rooting phones not one told me what to do after I rooted my phone.... my husband told me I needed to download a recovery something so I tried all the ones he told me aboutand none of them supported the tribute 2 so long stoyshort I turned the phone off and when I tried to turn it back on its like stuck in a bootloop I dont know how but qfter I turned it off I dont know if it factory reset or not but its taking me thru the whole first timensetup thing but when I get to the wifi part where u sign in it tells me it cant sing in to the same internet im using right now qnd if I hit skip the screen like blinks and its at the same damn spot .... im so done with this phone can anyone help me but plz know i do not know anything qbout anyof this stuff so plz put it in lamest terms....
Oh and please if u r going to be ugly dont even bother commenting thanks
Oh one more thing the phone remebers my wifi password and itsays its connected but I nce I click nextitsays couldn't connect to internet and then a second box comes up and says internet unavailable with buddy ( name that shows up in wireless networks.)
If you're ok with your data being deleted, I'd just do a factory reset yourself so that hopefully it might fix whatever broke, otherwise I'd just restore my working backup.
I believe the tribute 2 is Volume down and power to turn it on and get to the factory reset.
