Hi Everyone,
I would like to ask for you help since I'm not techy enough to really understand how to solve my problem.
I've been researching and trying for 2 whole days now and still not near enough in fixing my phone. :-(
I have a J6 and currently it has an error on the left top most of the screen.
"Could not do normal boot. Invalid Kernel Length."
tried using ODIN. however the (write) error keeps popping up and I always get "FAIL"
I'm assuming that it is because the "OEM lock is on"
tried to search on how I can unlock it to no avail. :-(
Please help on what I can do..
is it better to focus on unlocking the OEM.
or is it better to find a program that can hard reset it? (Since nothing is working in the guides since it wont boot)
Thank you.. I really wouldnt like to buy a new phone right now. since I just bought this a year ago.. thank you.

hey guys im new to the scene and trying to figure as much stuff out on my own as i can, usually i do a good job and don't need to ask for help. but i do when i have to, so the problem i am having is with a sony xperia play .
its my brothers phone and i was thinking about getting one but i want to "root" it and see whats what with it but i am trying to do so without unlocking the bootloader just incase anything goes wrong with it later so it remains under warranty. im coming from the iphone jail-breaking scene so this is a little different. but i want to give it a go. so i'm trying to root it i checked out this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765&page=1
i realize at the top of the post it says not all devices are supported because of new FW's does the FW i am on fall in this category?
i tried it with the 1.2.apk and the 1.1
im not sure why it is not working.
but i have a feeling its got something to do with the FW the phone has come with
its running 2.3.3
build number 3.0..1.A.0.145
model number r800i
kernal version 2.6.32.9-perf
i formatted the SD card before anything then after i installed gingerbreak to the phone itself. (also tried it without formatting it, i installed gingerbreak and tried to run it then and it didnt work so i rebooted formatted SD card and tried again and still nothing)
made sure the phone was set to be in USB debugging mode.
gingerbreak opens and has the options there but when i tap "root device" it just says "running exploit" ect on screen and nothing changes. on the post it says usually about 10 minutes but i read through it and one person said it worked for theirs but it took an hour and a half, but another said it took 3-5 minutes.
so i do not know what i am doing wrong. but i have a feeling its the FW it has come with out of the box but i have not been able to find out any information about it as of yet.
i have found another post saying to flash it with a UK generic FW 2.3.2 .184
but im guessing i cannot downgrade to a FW that was not on the phone from packaging. although i may be wrong but that is usually the norm with this kind of thing.
any help in getting me in the right direction is greatly appreciated, and i hope to be able to help others in the future. yes it doesn't seem like i am of much help right now seeing as i can't even get it rooted yet. but i tend to pick up on things very fast. today i am having trouble getting in to it. but soon enough i will get there thank you to anyone who read this i know it is a little long but i wanted to make sure i gave as much information as possible to make sure i haven't left out something critical if i have left out anything let me know and once again thank you for taking the time to read this post and reply (if you did reply =] )

-.- 88 views and not one reply....
anyway if anyone here can help me at all please do,
what use is knowledge if it isn't shared or spread.
none.
I'm not sure you guys can help me here as you seem to deal mostly with phones but I'm hoping, here is my problem.
I have the Pandigital PRD07T20WBL7 the tablet has never been hacked and I have had it for some time now but this morning when I turned it on It got as far as the boot screen and then just sits there, I have tried multiple times to reset it and/or cause it to restore to factory (Holding power and Vol up) I'm honestly not very knowledgeable when it comes to tablets or android systems so I'd love some advice on what I might be able to do to get this one working again, at this point restores or even a workable hack would be welcome. If someone could advise or point me in the right direction I would much appreciate it. BTW I have tried to run the Canadian update to the firmware just to see if I could get it working and it wont go in I get an error from the installer I've attached a screen of the error the updater gives me if thats any help to anyone. I appreciate any help I can get with the problem thank you.
Okay, so I have screwed up my phone after owning it literally an hour and a half... Coming from Samsung, I'm afraid I'm not used to LG yet but I feel a crash course coming on... Anyway, when booting up I am getting "Security Error [Authentication Error #11]. The phone turns off after that. I'm assuming I've managed to bork myself in record time? Would I be able to fix it with stock firmware? If so, does anyone have that file? Any help would be very much appreciated!
(PS. I did search for (and found some) answers and thats actually why I am writing this now as I don't want to make another assumption and make things worse)
Hey everyone, so I recently purchased an a10e second hand, thought i did my due diligence, checked the black list for the imei, registered on samsungs site , when i finally got to play with it a day or so later when i was going through the setup it asked me for the original owners information. had attempted to contact the owner but dude is litterally a ghost, I have attempted everything i can possibly find here and on the forums about frp unlock tried several apk tools which get **** blocked by debuggong not neing on, tried hrs worth of adb commands to no aveil, and redonculous amount hrs trying bad combo files and firmware files that fail. ive been at this daily for a month now. I realize i can eat my pride and pay to get it dealt with, but ive been at it for so long at this point. I NEED TO SEE IT THROUGH. PLEASE HELP THANKS
