[Q] SDCARD bricked - HTC Oxygen

Hi All,
I have been running the gingerbread rom for 2 days (rc2) and i was very happy with it. Untill yesterday evening out of the blue my sdcard was bricked.
Ofcource my phone cant finish booting anymore because some parts of the system are actualy on the sdcard.
fastboot works.
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig
both return OK but it doesnt help. Tried different SDCARD same result.
I am not in panic because i know this must be solvable.
I have been searching for hours but no luck for me in finding the solution yet.
There is a lot of information to find, but most of it regards a combined USB/SDCARD brick. My USB is perfect.
any help would be much appreciated.
btw, recovery works, but does not see the sdcard as well.
i have S-OFF (alpharef)

Thnx for the reply but i dont use windows on any of my systems. I dont like the idea of programes "magicly" fixing my problem. I wanna understand stuff.
anyway, i am a lot further now. I have to confess i cant reproduce my fix, i have more than a dozen open browserwindows as a result of my search for resolving this issue. Its probably not even an oxygen issue, but i am not sure of that.
I have my sdcard mounted now again and currently transfering a clockwork mod backup dir to it.
gonna try to use regular recoverymode with these files when i'm done

[Q&A] USB soft brick + how i fixed it.

I'm Working on a HTC Legend for a friend.
And after Rooting and Installing a Custom rom, I sudenly could not access the sdcard annymore. So I revert ( STUPID ) to 1.31 rom.
And start over. But I could not get the USB port to work anny more. Getting errors like: error: device not found ,with adb commands. and in windows Unknown Device ( error 43 ) no driver helped.
sollution:
Source: http://android.modaco.com/topic/309961-usb-brickrickrolledb0rked-fixed/
...
Also, SD card functionality has to work. For this, do 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' in fastboot mode.
Steps involved:
1. Find out your CID. Go into fastboot mode, and do 'fastboot oem boot'.
The log will say something like the following:
Code:
#INFOTAG:Ramdisk OK
#INFOTAG:smi ok, size = 0
#INFOTAG:hwid 0x0
#INFOTAG:skuid 0x21F04
#INFOTAG:hero panel = 0x0
#INFOTAG:engineerid = 0x0
#INFOMCP dual-die
#INFOMCP dual-die
#INFOTAG:mono-die = 0x0
#INFODevice CID is not super CID
#INFOCID is HTC__E11
In this specific case, the CID is HTC__E11.
2. Get the following mtd0.img from here or from here: mirror provided by SgtDavePwnage.
Edit this image to the CID you found above with a hex editor.
3. Get flash_image from here or from here: mirror provided by SgtDavePwnage.
Move this to /data/ , and flash the modified image using:
"/data/flash_image misc /data/mtd0.img"
You can move both mtd0.img and flash_image by putting it on your sdcard, and issueing the following command in a terminal emulator:
'cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image'
'cat /sdcard/mtd0.img > /data/mtd0.img'
You might have to do 'chmod u+x /data/flash_image' before you run the commands (or chmod 755 /data/flash_image)
4. Repeat step 3 a couple of times if it doesn't seem to work well.
5. All done! Reboot, you should have normal usb connectivity. Post your 'fastboot oem boot' log and intermediate steps if it fails.

After that I followed the r4-legend-root Step 1 and skipped step two by placing Clockworkmod as update.zip on the SD.
Recovery Vol up + power. And I was back in the game. { I lost that other game while typing this }
It took me a while to learn all this. In 24 Hours 5 hours of actual work and even more frustration. But I'm There.
I hope this helps you as it did me.
Right now I'm fiddeling with customisations to

Getting all his apps in the Rom, saves space in data.

[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 i/o stuck in APX. Bootloader damaged, nvflash anyone??

Hi, I've googled and checked everywhere but I dont believe i found a post where people re-installed everything with nvflash.
My Samsung galaxy tab only connects APX mode. I think i damaged the bootloader partition(?) with odin when i did not uncheck the 're-partition' box. Since then, the tab is stuck in APX mode only. I've tried draining the power, I've even taken it apart to unplug the battery. I've left it without power, powerbutton taped down and usb stick stuck to the usb adapter to make sure that the power was all drained for at least one week but it still did not work after recharging.
Can anyone help me out by telling me how to use nvflash to reprogram the bootloader partition and re-create the bootloader so that I can use odin or even fastboot to install the new startup and rom. I guess i also need all the files necessary. I've downloaded many bootloader.bin, flash.cfg, flash.bct and they do not seem to work, giving me several errors. I've tried commands like :
nvflash.exe --bct flash.bct --setbct --bl bootloader.bin --configfile flash.cfg --create --go.
however, i do not believe i have the correct files and therefore it does not work, ending with errors.
Prior to using odin, the tablet worked just fine. no issues whatsoever except occasional hangup.
Please let me know if there is any place, person or forum which I can contact in order to download the correct files to use nvflash to reinstall just the bootloader partition or everything on the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and if possible, the command string i should use in nvflash. I've been trying for about a month to get this to work and I believe i have a command string which will work but I do not have the correct files. I'm about to sell this unit on ebay just so I stop trying and wasting my time on it. Oh, or if you know someone who I can pay to reinstall everything through nvflash, that would work too. Thank you for your time.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
can anyone help?
I'm new to the scene, Have you tried checking via cmd if your Tablet is Locked/Unlocked? Only then can you determine if you can proceed to install CWM to save it.
When you said errors, I assume this is 0x4?
Hi, thank you for responding. I have the i/o edition and i believe those are all unlocked. I did manage to get it to work on another i/o tab but it was before i screwed up with odin. What i usually get is similar to this:
"

If I do

I get :

"
The device would then shut off (i hear the sound of it disconnecting from the computer).The problem i'm having is that I'm not sure if the flash.bct, bootloader.bin, and the flash.cfg are correct and I'm not sure if i'm entering the string correctly.
Please let me know what you think or if you can direct me to someone or some website which can help. thank you so much for responding.
Well I'm stuck on the same boat as you, except mine is on the 0x4 and hasn't gotten past the unlocked screen, according to a guide of this device, you need to push CWM to save it, that way you can clear/wipe/flash a stock ROM to save it.
Have you tried pushing the CWM?
Also when it says bad data, Seem's your download is incomplete :|
Hi, i'm sorry I haven't responded. I've been trying to power it down again.
I tried to push CWM but this is what I get
C:\nvflash>nvflash --resume --download 8 recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.img
Nvflash started

I tried downloading the file many times so I think it the file should be ok. I guess my tab is screwed up. I wish I knew how to reflash everything with nvflash. If you find out how to reflash everything especially the bootloader, please let me know

I'm still waiting for my galaxy tab to totally discharge. I've waited a week with the power button plugged in but the moment I plug the tab to the computer, the apx device is detected and so I guess it wasnt as discharged as I thought. I'll keep you posted

Yeah scumbag tablet dies in a day but takes a week to drain, taping the power button to be held down should help out, unplugged. makes it less harmful to that electricity bill you'd save up on
Ps- when you drain it try not to charge it more than 2% makes it easier to resume where you may need to redo the draining process incase you mess up

[Q] (really) bricked g-tab.

My gtab starts up and displays the viewsonic logo but will not boot into the ROM and will not boot into recovery mode.
when it is powered on normally the viewsonic logo appears and a black bar shows at the bottom of the screen a few seconds later.
power & volume+ show "detect a recovery key pressed" and "booting recovery kernal image". nothing more happens, even with a recovery image loaded onto the sdcard.
I am quite sure that i need to repartition, but i am at a loss of how to do so.
things that i have tried:
1.http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/
tried everything, even the 'nuke from orbit' option of FORMAT_nvflash. tried both 1.1 and 1.2 images, would not boot into any stock recovery rom. tried holding the volume+ key during flash, still would not boot into recovery.
2. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12220001&postcount=1
same results as above.
3.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1091304
same.
I'm down to the point where i'm going to open it up to see if there is a loose connector or something.
anybody have a better idea?

It's not bricked.
No need to open at this point.
The links you have looked at are very good starting point.
you may need to put your tablet in APX mode to NVflash a recovery.
APX is power off. Power on with VOLUME (-) (not vol+) and hold until a black screen pops up.
If you have the correct drivers, your PC should recognize the tablet.
You can run the nvflash.bat at this point
I recommend using the method HERE. This is one of the ORIGINAL NVFlash posts for the GTab. I have also posted my own nvflash folder for windows users HERE there is both a 1.1 and 1.2 bootloader version up there.
APX mode blues
Thanks for the quick replies.
I have re-flashed the tablet using APX mode about 20 times already. Both 1.1 and 1.2 branches. With and without cwm. Multiple tries with each image to make sure that there wasn't an error.
I have used the "FORMAT" flash as well, received the mismatch error. flashed all four versions of roms (1.1, 1.1cwm, 1.2, 1.2cwm) after redoing the "FORMAT".
Still nothing. It hangs on the boot image. If I attempt to enter recovery mode it hangs after displaying the text. Even if I hold volume+ during flashing so that it will go directly into recovery mode after the flash.
I know that it is taking the flash, one of the images that I tried has the Tegra logo instead of the Viewsonic as the boot screen. NVflash completes every time without error.
I am really at the end of my rope here as I haven't been able to find anyone that couldn't get into recovery after flashing.
Thanks for the help, any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
p.s. I tried once more tonight using Roebeet's instructions and the NVflash Pixelrider provided just to make sure that i didn't miss a step. Still hanging on the boot screen...
Try this:
1. nvflash back to a stock ROM (1.1 or 1.2). I strongly recommend bekit's original 1.1 images.
2. power off before the gTab boots into the stock ROM you just nvflashed.
3. put gTab into APX mode and run this command:
Code:
C:\> [B].\nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --format_partition 7 --format_partition 12 --go[/B]
The tablet will try to boot into the stock ROM (for the first time).
still no luck!
Thank you very much for the reply. Something new to try! Unfortunately it still freezes up.
recap:
Downloaded the "bekit 1105" image (nvflash_windows_20100500.zip)from Roebeet's sticky and the windows version of nvflash. Unzipped both into a folder on my desktop. 30 files weighing in at 202MB. (ADX drivers for Windows7x64 were previously manually installed through Device Manager)
Started gtab with "volume-" button depressed. Screen flashed on with Viewsonic logo then flashed off. Attached usb cable. Heard connection sound from Windows.
Opened folder previously mentioned, double clicked nvflash_gtab.bat. Clicked "Run" on warning popup.
cmd.exe window pops up:

Tablet shows "Entering NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server". Nothing else happens.
Waited 10 minutes. powered off using button, disconnected USB. Powered back on, Viewsonic logo appears, black bar flashes onto bottom of the screen, and...
Nothing else happens!
Waited another 10 minutes. Tried to get into recovery mode using "Volume+", still hangs, even with an image on the microsd card. Tried the whole thing over again, still nothing.
The fact that it never reboots after nvflash has me worried that there is something deeply wrong. Is there a way that I could repartition and totally wipe it via nvflash?
This thing is stubborn! Still hoping to find a solution...
Thank you again for the help!

The ``--go'' parameter to nvflash will cause the bootloader to try to boot into the ROM after the requested actions complete. Without a ``--go'' parameter, the bootloader will wait to further commands and you'll have to power off. If the gTab did not boot into the ROM with ``--go'' then something is wrong.
BTW, does adb work in recovery mode? Run this command:
Code:
C:\> [B]adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt[/B]
and post that text file here if it was any output.
Right now it looks like I'll have to build a custom recovery for you to test things out. In the mean time, try the procedures in this post one by one. See if any of them help. And, stick to bekit's recovery until we resolve this.
Thank you!
Thank you!
I will setup adb later tonight and give it a try. I was reading up on it elsewhere. It will be interesting to see if it responds.
Would hitting the reset button on the motherboard do any good? I have opened the case before to re-solder the power connector...
Thank you, can't say that enough!

Hmm. Now this can't be coincidence, can it? User raywaldo on this board is reporting the same problem after he soldered wires to fix his loose connector. See this thread where I mention this.
Ordinarily, based on the symptoms, I would've said that this was a bootloader incompatibility problem. But, both of you have done a full nvflash, so that's out. I'm leaning towards a HW fault right now, but, we'll need more data to make a definitive determination.
As I said, try out the other procedures first (and don't have a micro SD card with the CWM update file in it while you're doing those procedures--the stock recovery will try to install update.zip files if it finds them; CWM will not). If none of them work, then I'll send you a custom recovery image which will let us know if the bootloader did actually load and run the recovery/std kernel.
no adb. reset didn't change anything.
Thank you for sticking with me rajeevvp.
I installed the android sdk (and JDK) per the instructions:
http://www.androidtablets.net/forum/viewsonic-gtablet-technical/5377-adb-g-tab-step-step.html
I used SDK manager to download the platform tools and the google usb driver. Followed the instructions to uninstall the NvFlash driver and installed it as a composite ADB per the instructions. When i started the tablet normally it loads the usb storage device drive and assigns it drive letter E: (which never shows up in "My Computer" and says "Device not ready" from cmd prompt).
It would only connect as an ADB device when i put it into APX mode, which i don't think is right...
It showed up under USB deview, but said that the driver was winusb.sys, which doesn't sound right to me either...
used the echo command, ran "adb kill-server" and "adb devices". it didn't show anything connected.
next i tried the command that you posted and it said "access is denied".
so i went the other route and popped the case back open. tried all four methods for hardware reset (unplugging battery, shorting capacitors, reset button and shorting the four solder pads), no change in behavior...
The link from wroark is interesting. I am leaning towards hardware damage as well because i have never gotten a complete boot out of it since the repair. Maybe i bungled something up, and only made it worse with the flashing...
I am looking for damage on the PCB but haven't found any yet. I will desolder the power connector later tonight and give it a bath in some PCB cleaning spray.
Thanks for your help once again!

Try that adb command on Linux; Windows is too much pain--don't want to troubleshoot an "ADB is not working" problem too.

Go through this thread as well.
OK. Now for some troubleshooting.
1. Remove any external microSD cards, as always.
2. Put gTab into APX mode and run this command:
Code:
C:\SOME\PATH> [B].\nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --format_partition 7 --format_partition 8 --format_partition 9 --format_partition 10 --format_partition 12 --download 9 recovery.img --download 10 recovery.img --go[/B]
This will format all the problemmatic partitions and then upload CWM-2.5.1.1-bekit-0.8 with a different kernel onto both the "recovery" and "boot" partitions. The kernel has been modified to print boot-up messages as it does on standard Linux. If the bootloader loads and runs either kernel ("boot" or "recovery") then you should see, first, the 2 penguins logo (one for each processor), and then, the kernel messages below that. After the kernel finishes, /init will run, clear the screen, and print "ANDROID" in small caps, and then CWM should start.
3. Use the bootloader.bin--which is from 1.1-3588, the last VS 1.1 update--and the recovery.img in the zip attachment.
surgery done...
I wasn't happy with the solder joints that I laid on last time, it looked like I might have bridged two of the pads... so I removed the power connector completely only to find that the housing was split down the middle. Found a new connector (perfect match here: http://www.dcpowerjacks.net/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15&products_id=202), got it today. Cleaned the pads and carefully connected the new one. sprayed everything clean, it looked great afterwords, but no change in behavior... I didn't see anything loose or missing either when I went over it with the magnifying glass.
Ok, reflashed per your instructions. here is the output:
Code:
C:\Users\Desktop\Desktop\bekit1105>nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --format_partition 7 --format_partition 8 --format_partition 9 --format_partition 10 --format_partition 12 --download 9 recovery.img --download 10 recovery.img --go

It rebooted into the screen that you described but stopped short of going into clockwork. for a long time the last lines were:

When I rebooted it without the USB attached the last message shown is "NvOdmMouseDeviceOpen failed" before it went into the "INFO" error messages.
Still think its a hardware problem?
I will get a linux boot CD setup to try ADB mode again, but i'm hoping that the messages above will be enough to figure this out.
Thank you, once again, for your time and help.
pictures...
Just in case I missed something, I attached some screenshots.
they are in chronological order, 989 is before the "INFO:" error messages pop up, 990 shows those error messages, and 991 is the final screen with no messages.
Thanks for the screenshots. Judging from the visible kernel messages, this looks very much like a hardware fault. The "so340010_kbd" is the driver for the soft keys to the right of the display. The error messages indicate a failure to communicate with the controller for those soft-keys.
I suggest that you start at those soft-key pads and trace the lines back to their controller chip then scrutinize the circuit traces from this chip all the way back to the CPU. See if everything looks OK.
Try ADB on Linux, but, I don't hold out much hope for getting anything out of it: The kernel looks like it is having serious problems with the hardware--I don't think it has even got around to starting up the user-land processes. And, don't worry about the INFO messages relating to cpufreq-dvfsd. You can disregard them for the moment.
EDIT: A thought just struck me. It's winter-time over there, right. Did you take the proper precautions while handling the board? It's very easy to fry a chip silently this time of the year over there using ESD: walk on the carpet, pick up a load of static electricity, then toast something with a simple touch. I borked a board like that one time I was there.

i have been having same problems with my g-tab, i tried the modified recovery and was able to get to clockwork. i tried updating to few roms, i have NVflashed 100 times. Everytime i NVflash, it shows the tapNtap boot screen, it cycles through this for 4 to 5 times, then just shuts off. Then i try to start again, get nothing, can only go into APX mode which i can only do NVflash and just does same thing. So i tried the modified recovery, goes to clockwork and tried installing other roms, installs without problem, but when restart system will not boot at all. Just black screen and can only do APX mode... also tried opening case unplugging battery, pressing reset button on motherboard... i think the internal SD needs to be completely wiped and no matter what tool i have used, there is still data there.

If you can boot into CWM and install ROMs, then you don't have the same problem. And, that modified CWM was meant to be a diagnostic aid--it was not intended to be a cure for gTab illnesses.

Is the data still there after you "Partition SD card" in CWM? Make sure you remove any external microSD cards from the tablet first.

Can't unlock Verizon Incredible 4G phone, was previously unlocked

I am trying to unlock my HTC Incredible 4G on Verizon to load a new ROM onto it. All of my attempts have failed up to this point, by using the WinDroid v2.3 automated tool. I get the following output during the process:

Just above, you should see (bootloader) cid: 11111111
1) Yes, my cid is 11111111. Keep going.
2) No, my cid is VZW__001. Factory reset and try again.
3) No, my cid is VZW__001. Exit the script.
There are two things I notice here:
1) My phone is not identified as "HTxxxxxxxxxx" but rather "FA**********".
2) It appears to work, with the reading and writing of the files, but then it doesn't work.
One thing that I noticed was that when I go into the bootloader when this does not work, I get the first attachment.
When I go to the "Recovery" option, then I get the second attachment.
It appears that I originally put a ROM or S-off'd and unlocked my phone, but somehow lost the unlock and can't figure out how to fix it.
Any help in figure it out would be appreciated.
Do you know which OTA is currently on the phone? The unlock method depends greatly on which one is installed. Assuming you're on the latest, try this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2664460 The script looks slightly different than what you've posted above.

Sorry for the delay in response. Looking again at your screenshot in the OP, you are indeed missing the CID. It should appear between "FIREBALL" and "HBOOT":
I have not dealt directly with that one before, but I would imaging that during temproot, you'll need to recreate the directory. I vaguely recall in a post in this forum on how to manually push a different CID via memory chunk. That might be the best approach to rebuild that area so that you can get going again.
Two questions for the general community:
1. Does anyone know if flashing the RUU will restore the CID?
@keithsmessina - It probably wouldn't hurt to try this anyway. I am guessing it will fail due to lack of CID.
2. Will sending the following command work while phone is in bootloader if the phone is not s-off and the \sdcard\CID directory is missing? What, if any other damage could occur if the \sdcard\CID directory is missing?
Code:
fastboot oem writecid VZW__001

Thank you for the suggestions.
1. I tried this, but got the message: "Main version is older." I think I can only do that if my version is lower than the current RUU.
2. I tried the fastboot write, but I got:

When I tried: adb devices with the phone at "fastboot USB", I didn't see anything, so I think it failed for that reason. I tried killing adb, removing and reinserting the USB, adn then running adb devices, but still comes up empty.
I'm really at a loss, but appreciate the help from you guys.
I managed to figure out the read-inly access. HTC Sync Manager started each time and grabbed the SD card before the script could do anything. I renamed the HTC Sync Manager to stop it from running. Then I re-ran the script and got:

Thank you for that. I don't know how many times I've gone through it, but I finally got that you just have to do step 6 rather than step 1 to get S-Off. I now have S-Off with TWRP.

I realize that I kept running into an issue changing one of the file systems during that first process which meant that only one of them changed: the "Data" filesystem.
The "Internal Storage" filesystem gave me an MTP error, but then said it finished successfully. It stayed as a vFAT filesystem.
I did get Liquidsmooth up and running with PaGapps, but am now looking for a way to resize my partitions, as there isn't much room left to install apps.
People have looked at resizing the partitions but nobody has had any luck. The partition change seems to be the best bet it was set up by MDMower for his CM builds http://mdmower.cmphys.com/cyanogenmod-fireball/ it might give you more information to make the swap. Beeko has stopped work on Liquid Smooth so for current Android 5.x PAC or CM are the choices and they only work with the partition swap. I have PAC on my Fireball but will probably try CM 12.1 soon.

If you can enter in lelus fastboot, then flash a recovery wipe partitions and then with the recovery flash a rom....
My english is such bad or u didnt read the all posts? .
I flashed recovery partition much time. Telefon still is dead. Stock recovery, CWM, TWRP.
If I could flash recovery and after could "instal" rom - then it would not be problem .

Then, If your L9 doesn't boot, it could be beacause a "IC power Cristal" or other hardware issue like EMM break (Eprom). In some case a box like http://octopusbox.com can solve the problem or in other case extract a log file with the exact issue details
A dead block of flash will produce CRC errors after or during the flash process and random lockups or reboots during operation. And if the fastboot problem strikes, you can issue commands via ADB, but after the necessary reboot there will be the PnP sound loop. If the phone is in Charge-only mode, ADB commands will be ignored, you can issue them, but **** happens.
Was there any positive feedback for the flash commands?

It can be true. I received similar diagnosis about corrupt emmc. Anyway - for me it is possible but very unlikely (Ofc i havent experience).

I am so sad! . But anyway, i am feeling much better when i know what is wrong with phone.
U-boot gets sent to the phone's RAM, but writing to its appropiate partition fails utterly. That is not necessarily hardware related. And nothing I've seen before. Either the partition got damaged or deleted, or it's in F2FS format. Artas' CM11 uses F2FS, EdwinMoqs CM13 as an option, and TWRP from 2.8.x can format partitions with F2FS.
But D/L mode is almost indestructible, only a bit tricky to invoke. And requires LG drivers. Even if the phone is no longer getting recognized by LG drivers and LG software because of a custom rom, when in D/L mode the LG driver should install a virtual COM port and the LG flash tool should now recognize the phone. Ihad difficulties flashing a KDZ file with LG Fladh Tool 2014,but the tool from the LG site, getting the stock rom directly from the server, works reliably, but it's best to flash twice in a row. If the phone auto-reboots into launcher, it's a success. If you see LG's stock recovery after the flash, flash another time.
Ok. if you run this command: "fastboot flash u-boot u-boot.img" (assuming that the u-boot.img file is for your l9 model), and result is cannot write in partition then EMMC is break (95% probability)

Could be... perhaps if use Lg flash tool 2014 in emergency mode... (5% probability but is more than nothing) i hope @Groszexxx can revive his device
and if i was you... i try this... (see attach)
Yes, i talked about octoplus with someone, who has it. I never had anyone box . It is not my job . I was only curious what is it with phone my friend. I spend much hours on this issue. Anyway, i dont regret.
I will send phone to someone, who can flash it by some box like octoplus or jtag.
Thanks for lecorbusier post. I read much post, but this one is new for me.
So - time saying goodbye .
Maybe i will inform what will be next, maybe not ;p. We will see .
Thanks for all!
