Thanks for the link. As I said, it could just be me. I recently updated Firefox and Flash and there appears to be some issues. This might be one of them

no problem, hope it work for you

I guess this is also useful for using the flash tool to unbrick thread right?

Yep this works for anything that is used to flash the x10 or other phones along these lines were java is needed, it will set your PC up for a long time to be honest with other programs that might struggle to use java when in a 64 bit environment.

Ok, I dont want to get ripped on, i try stay quite on here but i have for the last two days been getting ' java' is not a recognized etc. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both 64 and 32 bit programs, also change file path to C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin and also tried C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin i am at loss for what to do, i am not a die hard but am thought i was decent with computers up until now. Any help would be so much appreciated.

No issue,
Uninstall all the java you have installed, were on my Vid i have 2 if you have the 32bit and 64 bit of both you should have 4, then do a restart on your PC/Laptop and then follow my video guide and you will be sorted.

OK, uninstalled all java, restarted.
Changed my path to:
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Ulead Systems\MPEG;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin
Installed jdk-6u20-windows-i586 then jre-6u20-windows-i586
restarted, tried the X10flash.exe and still getting same error...

Its actually showing two, 5&428a151&0&1 and 5&428a151&0&2 I tried both but makes no difference

OK found the problem, you have to press any key before the phone boots up!

I used the first one, I was letting my phone boot up, that was the problem!
I pressed any key on the cmd as soon as I plugged in the usb, that seemed to work as in my phone is now reset to factory settings!
cheers for the help so far

Java issues at Step One
I'm having the same trouble as above, and I am on a 32 bit machine. I've been at this for the past 6 hours. I have confirmed & reconfirmed my phone's ID # using regedit. I have reinstalled Java as above. I have extended the Path string to find jre6. (What is (x86) for, is it necessary on my machine, as it doesn't seem to be part of the path?) I enter flash mode on the phone & immediately "press any key" but the script still gives me the same Java errors as above.
I have watched and read the tutorials extensively. Please.....what's up?

You need to go back in and remove the x86 bit, as you are on a 32 Bit system every program you have is an x86 program.
This fix was purely for the phone on 64bit systems as there should be no issues on a 32bit system you see.
Chances are your issue is your Device ID

Hi so I accidentally deleted my path file...how do I get it back with the original path and such?

i did everything i dunno what's wrong
my PATH is

[HELP] Getting PC To Recognize My adb Device!!

I've tried everything. IT WILL NOT recognize my phone.
When trying to install the drivers it says the Authenticode does not have permission. I got the damn drivers directly from Android.com but it still doesn't think its authentic. Because of this, o cannot get the computer to recognize it as an adb device to root the phone.
I'm going nuts now. 2 days with literally 8 to 10 hours of trying with no success.
Can someone please please PLEASE help me?
I was having the same issue. Install PDAnet. Works like a charm. The program installs the drivers for you. You can uninstall the program after you get the drivers working if you'd like.

and what makes no sense is when trying to manually install new hardware, it SHOWS there are authenticodes for those drivers:
theres a way of turning off driver signature checks, try that
http://www.google.com/search?q=windows+7+disable+driver+signature
Are you on Vista or a Windows server version?
I had the same issue, turned out it was a hardware bug.
I sent it to the repair center at HTC in United Kingdom and i had it returned 5-6 days after, working and with locked bootloader

Vista.
I've tried a few of those suggestions and non of worked. Most involved the bcedit trick but its disabled or doesn't exist in the newer security updates.
Vista 32 bits or Vista 64bits ?
in hardware management console what do you see ? yellow question mark ?
Sometimes you need to go in it and find your device to check the HID number and copy it manually in the driver *..inf files to be detect by your OS.
I remembered doing this for my G1 long time ago (years).
If you can, get your hands on another n1 or android device to see if its a hardware problem with the phone, which i doubt. Also try a diff OS.

This is for windows 7 64bits : http://tinyurl.com/2548qh4
take a look @ post #4
Hope you solve your problem !
In case you have Windows 7 you can try the following.
http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/...gning-in-windows-7-using-group-policy-editor/
Are you installing the usb drivers using the utility in ADB? If not, delete the drivers in hardware manager, and try installing them with the utility.
I had no problems doing this on Vista, but I prefer to use ADB on Linux.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
hey .
maybe i´ve got something for you.
download my file here
install the binaries and then reboot (i said you don't have to, but i think in your case it would be better)
EDIT: is the debug function enabled in your device?
OK, after a few hours and still no success with Vista, I went to storage and pulled out my personal PC I built that hasn't run in a few years thanks to corrupt hard drives.
I spent 4 hours repairing and fixing the hard drives and SUCCESS, I got it to detect it on my Windows XP PC.
NOW! Still not working! In the command prompt, it shows adb devices as one connected but still when I do an adb push nothing happens. Just recycles the adb menu....
Any suggestions?
Your first mistake is using a PC that you know is not working properly. Try a known working pc.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Try using a Linux distribution. Saves a lot of time and headache.
or just reinstall your windows. win7 would be better than vista.

Following from your other thread, I've updated my Java and can still use ADB, so not sure if it is a version issue or why it no longer works for you. In regards to this thread, I've done similar before and had to reflash in the end.

Well that sucks... Cause my Java isnt working so I cant use the reg flash method which requires java for the deviceid part... Which of the new root or flash methods work without Java?
Regarding the Java issue, its because I installed the v21 Java. You probably installed the v20 Java and then upgraded. Ill try the Java again...

Thats exactly where my files are located too... It seems that the JRE installer on the website is still in v20 but once I install the JDK which is in v21 it updates the JRE as well...
Update
I was able to disable the JDK from updating the JRE to v21 as well but it still doesn't work. You do have Java in your taskbar or in your process list right?
Not quite sure what to suggest from here.

It seems you have driver problem.

if it returns something like 0,3 it means drivers are installed correctly.

I had a similiar problem, though not the same. It was fixed after a reboot of my Windows 7 x64. I think my computer had problems dealing with the USB being connected and disconnected an awful lot. I have no idea if this is where your problem comes from, but it might help if you're like me and prefer leaving your computer on at all times.
Also, if you're quite new to rooting and flashing, and aren't that interested in learning the ins and outs of it, I recomend using Flashtool [1] for flashing to an earlier version of stock Android, rooting your Android, easy booting in fastmode and flashing your kernel. The only use I've found for fastboot.exe is to unlock your bootloader [2] (official guide by Sony Mobile), though I might be missing out on something (while I actually do not believe I have).
Please keep us posted.

thanks but actually i have unlocked bootloader.. and i have some xperience because i had x8 and i have tweaked it full
Had similar problem!
First couldn't get into fastboot, had problem installing S1 driver. Changed the USB port on my PC and it asked to install the S1 again. Chose the directory where it was and voila.
Now I have to use 2 different USB port for fast boot and flashmode. Little annoying but I got used to it.
Try it, it may work for you.
Reinstalling Windows should be your last step, especially a stable OS as Win 7!
P.s. Why don't you use Flashtool? In it's newer version there's a *.exe (under drivers folder) file that automatically install all needed drivers.

thank you. also if you happen to be local I'd like someone who would be able to meet somewhere possibly and walk me through some of the basic things to get me moving along. Like I said its been a long time since I've even flashed a ROM onto a phone and with this Rezound and all the ICS needing special procedures to install kernels and everything I'm completely lost. So I'm still stuck on 2.3.4. I bought the phone from a guy I used to work with and he used to be helpful but since he got tired of trying to keep up with it all and that was the reason for selling it to me he couldn't teach it. He deleted every single file from his computer related to Android and removed it all from his Pulse account and any other news feed like Google Reader and such. That's my whole predicament

Everything is all pretty simple and easy on this phone. they say its a hard phone to brick.. but honestly, im nowhere NEAR on knowing how to fully build a rom (Im still learning) but flashing them on thee other hand i know well..if you are located in texas im sure we could work something out. i am currently 21 yrs old so dont let my username fool you lol.
Do I need S-Off to go up to ICS and what does it mean to install kernels in HBoot and all that mess? Like I try to read all the things the developers say but I want to learn the basic way to do things, not the "download my toolkit and it does it all for you"
First, get rid of windows. Throw the disc in a fire, or destroy it somehow.
You need linux, Ubuntu is the most user friendly.
Also, I wouldn't use a netbook for development. You need a powerful CPU and most netbooks cant do much. Most netbooks come with windows starter because they can't handle the Aero UI.
But, I move on. Android SDK, java, and some more stuff in an earlier post is what you need. Also, set up a virtual device in Eclipse to make apps easier to test without having to download to phone.
But, eclipse has this handy feature that you can enable USB debugging and connect to your computer. When you finish a build of an app, you press the button at the top and the app automatically compiles and goes to your phone. You can go from editing and building to testing on the actual device in 5 seconds with one button click. It is awesome.

K.. first off.. you can upgrade to ICS from GB if you're S-on.. but if you're S-on, you can't downgrade I.e: (S-on example) if you're on V2.11.605.10, you can upgrade to a version higher than that like v3.14.605.10.. but once and if you upgrade to v3.14, you can't go back to ANY version below it.... If you're S-off, you could.

I'm quad-booting on my laptop, technically. Two drives, 2 OS's each. Win7 + Ubuntu, Win7 (alternate install) + Backtrack 5 R2.

awww MAAAAN!,, i was gonna try and replace windows 8 with backtrack but i couldnt FOR THE LIFE of me get it installed lol.. any tips?

SGP5 won't come back from the dead?!

So I've been trying for quite awhile to bring my player back. I was trying to develop my kernel with it and it just plummeted to it's death eventually. I found a DD dump somewhere of another device and flashed it, which I guess might not have been exactly the right file and now here we stand.
The device doesn't turn on, I don't get any "SAMSUNG" boot logo - nothing. It comes up in windows as
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now from the research I've done, that should be the "lucky unbrickable" state. The device does nothing, but still shows up in windows. I've tried unbrickable on windows 7, windows 7 via a ubuntu VM, and went as far as to setup a dedicated desktop with ubuntu natively and a windows XP VM. I can only get my player to react on the native linux desktop, but it enters download mode really strangely -
YouTube video of it being "resurrected"-
http://youtu.be/WDclUEyoHFE?hd=1
And after that I lose USB (although the device stays on and powered up as long as I leave it connected). I tried connecting the device to my XP VM which is what everything says to do, and I get "No USB devices connected" in virtualbox. Dmesg gives me "unable to enumerate USB device on port 1, device descriptor read/8, error -71" as soon as download mode initiates.
Every time I've done this whole process before, it's worked wonderfully and you can continue on and flash your bootloaders, then reflash everything else. I've tried this whole process over and over and over and haven't had any success. I also tried a USB jig and it didn't do a single thing.
Can anyone provide ANY insight? I'm really open to anything right now, otherwise it's out for JTAGing. I'm about at whits end with it and I'm out of ideas.
THANKS!
If it "worked perfectly before" in this configuration, your pb is mostly related to Samsung win 7 drivers that are not reachable or "lost".
try to reinstall them and check their availabilty connecting another Samsung device (ask your friends);
note: For me under win 7 , I installed ubuntu as second boot with windows and I forgot the Virtual box trick, that's much simpler and I can learn linux when I have free time...
Good Luck

My windows 7 computer connects fine to my galaxy s3. I just root/recovery/rom/kernel'd it a few days ago from that computer, so everything seems to be working as it should.
Have you tried heimdall on your linux machine? Like this you would not need to disconnect your player at all and you would avoid using virtualbox.

Yeah, I actually just did that. I even went as far as trying the current and past 3 versions of heimdall and it doesn't detect any devices.

Thanks, I'll try that when I get home. It looks like a precursor program to the unbrickable mod but I'm willing to try anything at this point!

has it worked for you ?
Have you installed the heimdall drivers? Like went into the drivers folder, ran zidag and replaced your "SAMSUNG COMPOSITE USB" or something like that with the first driver? That may make heimdall recognize it.

Yep, tried that a few times. I was using heimdall before so the drivers should be kosher for it.
It's almost like once it enters download mode the hardware isn't cooperating. I've also gone as far as trying every previous version of UnBrickable thinking one might work better, but I've gotten the same result with all the versions. Download mode shows up and then it drops all connectivity.
