SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!! for some reason my file manager wasnt accepting the flash recovery image and now my fone is stuck with no on screen keyboard and camcorder..Im sorry if this thread has already been answered but i couldnt find anything to help..any help is much appreciated THANKS!!
hi, You could go over to cyanogen's wiki and start over. here is the link http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod , just make sure you read it over a couple of time's cause there is a chance of bricking your device. Oh and when you get to the part a bout the signed-dream_devphone_userdebug-ota-14721.zip HTC took the link's off for some reason but you can find them at http://www.mediafire.com/?zywmn354kre , or if that one doesn't work for you there is http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BYJBWHAB. I'll say it one more time make sure you read it over and over, and make sure you understand what it say's to do before doing it. Lot's of people have bricked there phone's for not following direction's, and it's no one's fault but your own. Other than that if you have any questions just ask, and ill be sure to help.
As the title suggest's yeah i need help with a chinese tablet. I flashed the wrong firmware on it, it's semi bricked now.
I know you'se guys hate this topic, but I'm really looking forward to trying to get my tablet alive again.
There is a bin file (I'd use BinEdit) with u-boot file first and w-load_DDR3_700M_1066M_8bit_2_256MB_0150001.bin at address 70000. I just reflashed SPI BIOS and got workong device. Is this just basically changing the values and flashing?
Please do not shoot me down in flames nor say if your asking the above i should not be not go near it, we all live and learn from mistakes.
Just a little bit of enlightenment or summit regarding this would be excellent.
Kind regards.
Joseph.
First off, I'd like to say thank you in advance for any help I receive. I'm not an expert by any means at this - I would consider myself amateur at best!
I'm fairly desperate at this point - I've been trying for days to solve this myself by following various tutorials and forums, but have had no luck, so I'm really hoping someone here is willing to help me out!
What I've been trying to do:
Install official Google 4.2.2 Jellybean on HTC One 802w Dual sim model.
Current State of phone:
The phone is currently rooted and has clockwork mod installed and SuperSu 1.65 and has moonshine installed. However, I've had absolutely no luck in finding or flashing a 4.2.2 ROM onto the phone. I cannot find a ROM to match the phone - all the zips I download from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43177948&postcount=369 say that they're corrupted and can't be copied to the phone or extracted. I find this really weird as I've checked the MD5 with HashCalc and they match. I have searched around other sites but cannot for the life of me find a ROM that works.
If it isn't possible to install the official Google ROM, I would be ecstatic if someone were to guide me through the process of restoring the phone to a complete factory state. I downloaded a supposed recovery img file for this phone, however it doesn't seem to work, so I flashed clockwork back on instead.
If anyone can help me with either of these things, I would be EXTREMELY grateful - I've reached a point where I'm at a complete loss on what to do.
Thank you very much for your time

you wont be able to flash a stock Google Rom onto an 802W.
I was just looking for a way to do the same!

Dear Scott,
I was looking for a way to install a Google Play Edition on my HTC One 802w when I stumbled upon your post.
Although I cannot help you with your primary goal, as I have not found a way to do it myself, I think you may have a chance to get your phone back to work installing an alternative ROM.
I have a MaximusHD (http://llabtoofer.com/2013/07/23/htc-one-dual-sim-maximushd/) running on my phone, and it is pretty customizable; but it is not a stock ROM.
I hope my advice will be of some use for you.
If you find a way to flash a Google Edition ROM on the 802w, please, post it for us here.
Good luck!
Me too, looking for alternative custom ROM for this model. I had to buy this model which comes from China Unicom which is not sold in my country (Malaysia) because i really need a good dual sim phone. I read thru the Maximus HD had some issues with dropped calls and Bluetooth connection sometimes not stable. Is there other custom ROM out there that I can try? Really hate all these chinese apps taking up space on this phone.

Alright, Im going to be completely honest. I am a complete and total noob to the tech behind smartphones. As Ive been learning, I tried rooting my Samsung Galaxy SII SCH-R760X, and after I attempted to flash a kernel that was suggested by this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/how-to-root-galaxy-sii-sch-r760-generic-t1928566, my phone is now stuck at the logo with a warning sign at the bottom. After all this, I realized I made the worst possible mistake anyone could ever make: I didnt backup my system. Luckily, I didnt have much data on it anyway. At this point I am aware it has become a softbrick, and Ive looked at guides such as this one:http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development/guide-fix-unflashable-soft-bricked-t1619571, but it still tells me to "put the recovery file in its place". Im assuming he's talking about the backup... which i dont have. If anyone could point me to where I can find a backup for it, or upload one for me, I would be incredibly in debt to you. Thank you for reading, I know how most people feel about noobs, but I dont know where else to go.
Please, if I am doing something wrong with this post, please tell me. I dont want to be an annoyance. In fact, this is my first time ever posting to a forum! Id love to get into smartphone tech, however, since I couldnt find a place to start, I made the foolish choice of simply diving in and ruining my phone (hopefully not permanently). Anyway, thank you for reading! Even if you cant help, I really appreciate the attention. Thanks!

You have already found good threads.
To recover a soft-bricked device, you basically have to flash back an official firmware for your device.
The guide you found was for the GT-I9100G, which is a little bit different from your exact device model.
Here is another guide for other variants of the S2: [GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked GSII (I9100G/M/P/T VERSION INCLUDED) by Phistachio.
As there is no "ready-to-go" recovery package available for your device model, you have to get an official/stock firmware for your device.
A link to possible firmware sources is in the first post of the guide you posted.
Flashing the stock firmware with Odin should fix the soft-brick.
If not, maybe a wipe data (= factory reset) in recovery mode (long press Volume UP + HOME + POWER) is needed additionally.
And rooting your device seems to be working with this too: [ROOT] Framaroot, a one-click apk to root some devices by alephzain ... I found some users confirming it working fine to root your device model.
If you still have issues and need further help, please ask in the [Q&A][SGS2][Newbies][Experienced Users][RCs] New members friendly Q&A thread by It_ler thread.
There we try to give detailed help for all variants of the S2.
Good luck !
Thanks for responding man! I didnt think anyone would reply.
I really appreciate the help. However, I downloaded and flashed the droiddroidz kernel turner78 said to flash, and that was what made my phone go softbricked in the first place... I tried flashing the other two kernels instead, and they proceeded to put my phone in bootloop... So, I tried flashing the "Siyah" stock kernel everyone was talking about, and it made this weird eye thing with a yin-yang flash on my phone... And Im sorry Im a total noob, I just recently learned what flashing and kernels were from the help of google :/... Im still a little lost on what Roms are. But reguardless, Im assuming the kernels I tried flashing were incompatible or corrupted, and thats whats making my phone not work. If Im wrong, correct me please. I know my phone is version 1.4.1, but thats about it. I dont know if its "Gingerbread" or "jellybean" or whatnot. Im sure Ive just made a stupid mistake and Im too dumb to know how to fix it.
