Hello mattes!
I have this phone for about three years.
After a while, I decided to use the CM10 ... cm11 ... and this weekend, I tried to climb 12.1 cm on the device, I recommended settings here in the forum and did not work. I studied, read and tried some other ways, until I decided to downgrade the device to the factory version 4.0.4, and by doing the firmware flash, the phone went out and did not care anymore. Already plugged into the outlet, and tested the power button up and down.
But my phone still no answers.
I am currently unemployed, and I use the phone to communicate, and unfortunately, I can not buy another ... If anyone can help me, I'll be very happy.
Thank you.

Okay, so I read and read, searched and searched. So far I'm pretty stuck.
I did a ton of research before taking my LG P500h, and flashing the ROM because I wasn't a fan of the Froyo android setup. Did everything properly, ran an nandroid backup, everything that I was told to do.
Rooted using Gingerbreak APK, custom backup using Amon_RA custom recovery. All done using the latest USB drivers LG updated me with.
I am currently with Koodo Mobile here in Canada. Pretty much an offspring of Telus Mobile. Currently I am running Cyanogen Mod 7 the 6.5.7 beta build, and the phone is not bricked, or giving me any errors or hassle.
The problem is that I cannot use the 3G network or use the Koodo network. It only defaults to Telus towers. No android market showing up anywhere either. From what I've found on here, there doesn't seem to be a bugfix solution to this, and no settings I've been able to change on the phone has helped my situation. Maybe I missed something.
So, I decided to take it back to where I began, back to Froyo 2.2.1 . This is where it all went wrong. Tried going through the Nandroid backup and restoring that, I was given an " Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb! " . Okay, I'm not exactly a Java programmer so I'm a little intimidated. I do however have Android SDK going on my laptop.
Some more searching revealed the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe flashing method. I got the right KDZ file for my Koodo phone, V10V_00.kdz and began the process. Everything checks out, good to go, started update. Wait, phone not found? WTF! My laptop recognizes it, says my phone is connected and working. No problems here, just can't find it? UGH.
So, I need someone to either give me info on getting it to flash the kdz, or get Cyanogen Mod 7 working properly on my device.
Please help, I'll fully admit I'm a noob to this, and not an expert programmer either. But, I know computers and I fully understand what I have done so far to my phone. Just not enough to fix it.
Okay, I have gotten some things working on my phone. I think I am settling into Cyanogen Mod nicely. I missed the Google apps flash zip so I have my market and stuff. Its a shame the data does not work though. Oh well I will keep updating as it gets developed.

GOT IT! finally...
Finally got my phone recovered to OEM specs. I had to restore my computer back to before I installed all my drivers and reinstalled all my USB drivers from there. Phone connected to USB properly, ran the KDZ updater, and it sucessfully installed the V10V kdz. All is well.
finally good luck.. enjoy androiding..
When you flashed the cyanogen mod rom what program did you use to flash the phone? And how did you make a rom backup? When you reflashed the stock rom did it still have all the original bloatware?
LG Optimus P500h TELUS became dead during Upgrading
Hi everybody!
I have LG Optimus P500h Telus. I purchased from Kijiji. I don't have any papers or documents for that so i cannot claim its warranty.
I was trying to upgrade its version during upgrading my device was stuck so I disconnected and plugged out its battery and inserted again. When i tried to turn it on. It never turned on again. It never ever appeared emergency mode again. I tried for several times by pushing home, power, and volume up and down buttons, and escape buttons. Now its just like dead. It never showed any sign of life. If anybody have any idea what happened with it and how I can recover or where I should take this one for repairs. I am in toronto, canada.
Your help and suggestions will be appreciated.

My problem starts from post #600
Please.
I came across a similar problem in the forums with a different samsung model, but the trouble there does not seem to be quite as persistent as my issue. Or at least, no one has posted follow ups in that thread.
I bought the phone on ebay, rooted, and unlocked and it worked for me for a few months beautifully. Then, one day it started acting weird. Programs would randomly crash, or reboot the phone. Rebooting helped for awhile, then didn't help and most of the programs became mostly unusable. One day, the phone hung while booting and I had to force it to shut down, and when it finally loaded properly the screen had reset to factory setup and the home button wouldn't work. Also the wireless had turned off and the date/time setting had changed. Plugging in to the computer using Kies fixed the home button problem, but the trouble with all my apps got worse. And the Tab would crash or reboot (and hang on reloading) even when I wasn't using it. Clearing the caches did not help at all.
I did a factory reset/data wipe (I've done a few now, actually), and that seems to fix the problem for a day or two, then the phone will hang on booting and the screen will have reset. The phone is rooted, but running the original Froyo 2.2 ROM.
Has anyone else run into this problem? I can't return it at this point, and am loathe to replace it since it works properly *most* of the time. I'd like to think this is fixable...and that *I* can fix it (with a little guidance). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
The SGT 7.7 originally released with 3.2 GB firmware (no Froyo).
Providing you have no partitions corrupted;
Have a read of the forum stickies and upgrade to a newer official Samsung Android version using Odin. All the guidance you need is able to search, read, and follow instructions etc
You also have choice of other ROMs found in the development section.
1. Custom ICS ROM (Samsung base) stable and working
2. Custom JB ROMs - some features may/may not work, check the thread

For latest official firmware Odin flashable, check;
samsung-updates.com
or
sammobile.com
Just extract so you have the tar file and flash with Odin. Guides and stickies will tell you how.
Custom ROMs will require a custom recovery, so before flashing custom ROM, make a nandroid backup from within the recovery menu. I personally use TWRP (touch) which is straight forward and easy to use and install. CWM recovery cab be flashed via Odin and requires more use of the volume keysto navigate and power to select.
From power off state:
Download mode = power + volume down (keep pressed until DL mode)
Recovery = power + volume up (keep pressed.. .. .)
Best of luck

Thanks for the suggestion, although full disclosure: I realized after following up on the first response to my original post, that I put this in the wrong forum. I have a Samsung GT-P1000, not a 7.7, and this seems to make things a bit trickier. Especially since I can't seem to get a official firmware upgrade from Samsung (US doesn't show as available country). And I can't dial as I use this only as a tablet with Wifi.
I'll try one of the custom ROMs though, and see if that helps.
Hi Developers and people who knows how to do stuff.
I'm a Noob in this, buuut need help.
Like a Week ago, i drowned my cellphone into sea inside my pants. at that moment, the Led Flash stayed on. I took Battery out, dissamble the cellphone and dried With Cold Air, Rice, Silica Gel.
finally i got my cellphone to turn on, [for a moment] but had a circuit overload [ i think that was the Led Flash meanted.]
After several days with the cell off, someone brought it back to life, I only had to buy a new battery.
NOW Is where the real thread starts.
My infuse shows No Baseband Version, No IMEI, No IMEI SV, Bluetooth Address Unavailable, Wifi Works, but it won't get to Airplane mode because it can't turn Cell Signal off. [because it does not have any cell or baseband]
I've tried Flashing Back to Gingerbread with UCLB3 Unbrick. Nothing.
I've tried Flashing UCLB1 & UCLB3 Modems back. Nothing.
I've tried Gingerbread Bootloaders. Nothing.
I'm thingking that this might be, because, when it was delivered to me, the guy told me, you have to flash that cell, it has a bootloop at Samsung Logo.
It Was running CM 10.2 and an Overcloked Kernel [Never changed the Clock Speed, but had the option to]. when flashed back to Gingerbread, and Going back to CM, it brick'd my IMEI and network info.
I don't know what else to do.. Please help me out! Looks like i Have an Ipod Touch! No network, No Bluetooth.
You tried jscotts odin back to stock tool? You can also try flashing some pure unofficial cm9 like Entropy's rom if you are able to flash!
The internals of your phone must be corroded after a drop in sea water. A real mess indeed. U can consider yourself lucky you can still use it like a media player.
Consider buying a new phone instead of repairing it though.
Good luck
I've tried

I've flashed back to FROYO 2.2.1 but it doesn't say nothing new to me! I'm waiting an answer from someone who told me to use JTAG Unbrick Tool [You know, Like Veteran's mode in COD]. But if this doesn't fix this, I'm thinking in buying the SIM CARD Reader for my infuse and replace it.
If it's not that, then I will buy a new Cellphone and stay with INFUSE 4G for Testing Roms, Apps and everything.
This is My Android Smartphones School.
By the way, could you please link me to that Famous "JScott's" Odin Back to Stock Tool!
Thanks.

I need help. I know very little about the android stuff even though I have had the phone nearly 3 years I think. I got a problem of flashing(my first experience of flashing the firmware). Let me put it in details. I have xperia SL. My friend helped flash a new custom rom (MIUI) so my phone was rooted and unlocked bootloader. because there were always problems happening( not smooth, and apps always stopped working during they were in the process) while I was using the MIUI Rom. I decided to flash it by myself to firmware I had before, but I did a lot of reading about it before I did it, but I don't think i understand all. Before it was flashed, it had the stock: LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96. I tried to look for this one. But I could find only the firmware for Xperia S. I tried, but during flashing problems happened it said something like flashing aborted, I don't know why. when I turn my phone on it displayed only reparing picture on screen...then I tried to turn it off by holding volumn up key and power button for 10 seconds and tried to flash another frimware but It is the old version: LT26ii_6.1.A.2.55_1266-9957_Singapore by xdaNomNomM. It worked this time. I looked for the firmware of LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96 and I got one it is LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96_Generic. I decided to flash my phone again. Yes, flashing process till the end was fine. I didn't see any error message or something. But after flashing, I disconnect it and turned it on because I got the message to do so. It displayed the repairing image again, don't know what is wrong. I decided to flash it again using the old firmware again 4.0.4 it works and now I am stuck using the ICS, not really satified with it. Anyone can help provide the links to download the firmware LT26ii_6.2.B.1.96 that work for me? and can you tell what could be the problems while I was flashing? what should I do to my phone now, keep it like that?
Thank in advance! Sorry that I write a lot for you to read and sorry to disturb you all!

Sorry dude but don't ask so long question.... No one has time to read it ....
Hi, haven't touched this phone in a long time, i'm 3 phones moved on. Anyways, I got this old S3 working, it was vibrating and not booting, and I finally literally just banged it down on the power button side three times, pretty hard against my desk, and it booted up. Go figure.
So, this S 3 is rooted, bootloader unlocked, on 4.3, build VRUCML1, with baseband VRBMF1. It is running Old and Slow, an old ROM, with an Imoseyon kernal. Also, recovery is TWRP 2.7.0.
If i wanted to try CM 13, can I just flash using the current TWRP version I have? Also, is there recommended radios to use? I would appreciate if one of you experts can help, I don't remember any specifics of this phoen and I have not rooted my last three phones, mostly because I can't, have a VZW Note 4.

Definitely update twrp. And as far as the radio you should update to the NE1 version. Only the radio/baseband not the bootloader.
And yea I hear you about the Note 4 on VZW. Not to preach but this is why I dumped big red. Tired of the games with the devices and being unable to root and unlock
