is the phone turning on? I think you only get that error when your trying to flash a custom kernel with a locked Bootloader. try flashing stock kernel and you should be fine. try this guide too:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1821750

Hmm, I would try SEUS.

kind of,
*2nd edit* Nothing, not a single thing wants to work, ill just dump it and get another one for my friend.
*edit* No, i couldnt get it to work. Ill try another version of flashtool. the newest one.-
Yes the unit powers up just fine. i also got it to flash the 2.1 Package using flashtool. that one worked out just fine. Ill update it from 2.1 to 2.3.3 using sues and check the BL status. Lets hope i get it saved

oh... okay then i'll won't do it..
anyone else got suggestions/tips?
since the X10 has quite different hardware from the Hero, it will undoubtedly be a *lot* of work, hardly worth it..
pleeeaseee do it, ive been waiting for someone to tryy...
it wont hurt, as he said, it shouldnt brick it.
of course i want todo it, but i don't want to brick my device
it wont brick the device as its only firmware not bootloader that gets affected. It most likely will hang and not boot and will requrie a wipe/install afterwards tho. Would love to try the x10 firmware!
ok, well i'll make a port, just simple as explained in the tutorial, and then i ask a romcooker to look at if it's safe, ok?
rightnow i'm dlling the decrypted version of the rom, and i will try to edit it, with some hero stuff, and send it to a romcooker before i will flash it..
first i downloaded the decrypted rom

not trying to be rude here, but if you need to ask these questions you'll probably fail at porting the rom... no offense intended. you cannot brick your device by just flashing the rom, for bricking you need to f* up the radio or the spl.
Sorry but im just a beginner and i wanted to try something, and i wanted to be sure i wouldn't brick my phone or unroot it..
When im home ill try to port it.

good luck with that, just be warned that the guide you linked is in now way a guide for porting. what it says about porting is the part everyone could have come up with. it totally skips modules, drivers and libraries. i wouldn't really know where to start either, and i have quite some knowledge about android by now.
don't let this stop you from experimenting! just be prepared to fail a few (or a lot of) times before you succeed.
btw, i'd love to see the x10 rom on the hero
Hello.
Even if you can port it, I doubt it'll run smooth on Hero, the hardware must be pretty gay for that rom.
Why u try to flash a complete ROM?
Only Mediascape and Timescape App is needed !
hf
because the whole rom of the X10 is just great!
when i'm home im starting the port, and i will upload the rom, when it's just booting on my hero..
and ye, i'm not really good at driver-coding and stuff.. so i think i need some pretty damn much good help from some proandroid-developers

we already can overclock the hero to 710 MHz.
I think that will make a pretty performance improvement

It's depending on your CPU, for exemple on mine I have to set it to 650Mhz for it to be stable, and over 670 it's crashing
And I guess overclock + X10 rom would mean a HUGE battery drain.
hmm.... yea you got a point..
well if i succeed we will see ;D
hmm i unpacked everything, but i can't seem to unpack the .sin files :S
i already tryed to change the extension to .zip/.rar and tryed to open it with notepad, but it doesn't seem to work :S
and i need to get in these files, to make it so i can try to flash it to my hero..

[Q] Flashed CM7 (with TWRP) No GSM and not detecting SIM Card

Good Morning everyone (or afternoon or night)!
Yesterday i flashed CM7 for the first time ever (Never flashed nothing before, except TWRP which i did it like 2 days ago.). Flashed it through TWRP Recovery and had a problem but solved it (froze on CM7 Logo). But this morning i noticed i had another problem, no GSM! When i flashed it and booted into system i found it wierd that it didnt ask me for my PIN but i was waaaaay to sleepy to think about it. But thats not all, as I found that i didnt had GSM, I also noticed that i didnt have my SIM contacts listed.
So if any of you could help me with this i would really appreciate it, as i really need my GSM working!
Any kind of help is welcome! Even if it means Flashing another ROM. Just really need my GSM working for now!
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354 <-- Where i downloaded CM7
- Before CM7 i had the 2.3.3 official update
PS: Yesterday when i had that freezing problem at CM7 Logo i flashed the patch mik mentioned on the FAQ's (see "Q: I flashed rom and GSM don't works. What's to do?"). It says that would fix that freezing problem and also would fix the no GSM problem but it didnt!
Thank you all in advance for all the help you might give!

You can restore something only if you backed it up. So if you made a backup of your old ROM go into recovery and hit restore. If not either flash a .zip ROM or use KDZ.
Good and bad news guys! i restored my 2.3.3 stock ROM and managed to get GSM again.(had to downgrade the baseband for 2.3.3 stock), that is the good thing!
The bad thing(not that bad i think i can manage to get it ) is that i wanted to flash a custom ROM but im not sure if i should do it because i thought CM7 was one of the best ROM's to flash and i was amazed by it at first! But that GSM thingy got me a bit mad and a bit insecure about doing it again. I wouldnt get mad and would have kept the ROM if i had solved the GSM problem but i didnt!
Any suggestions of what i should do? Any ROM's suggestions? (preferably with that awesomeee CRT off animation [yeah every one loves it!])
Ill wait for your replies! thank you very much for everything you done to help!

If u want to have CM7 by Mik you have to downgrade your baseband. Short way is using KDZ to flash old version of firmaware (v10a or similiar), then ROOT, install custom recovery and then flash CM7.
Well the only experience i have at rooting was by rooting my p500 with 2.3.3 official with superoneclick! I dont really know how to downgrade the firmware and root it on froyo! But if anyone could provide the way to do that i would really appreciate it!
Btw im sry if im asking too much, but i prefer the opinion and help of a more experienced person than just me finding something and boom! Bricked! But i also search even if i ask you guys something!

Read the entire guide, step by step!!!... Anyway it is pretty straightforward
BTW, remember to first install lg drivers on your pc... connect the phone via usb and disable LGE Virtual Modem drivers from device manager on windows,, --> this is extremely important to succeed!
My phone is ok again TakamineSubasa! i just needed an opinion on which ROM should i flash! I've done that guide and it went well! (for the 2.3.3 version! i think i messed up and used P500-v20G-baseband for CM7 [wrong one] and should have used P500-v10E-baseband). But ofc a stable ROM that doesnt have GSM problems :s
btw i was really disappointed with CM7 (or i just dont know nothing about it!). I used it all day (even though i had GSM) and i had no messaging widget, no market, and other things i dont remenber! If i flash it again is there a way to have those apps and widgets like normal stock ROM has?
Thank you very much for the help!

No market? U forgot a flash gapps. Other Widgets I dun think so.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Yep, as terratrix, you must flash gapps in order to get the market on your phone and install everything you want....
Concerning abt stock widgets, CM7 does not include any stock lg crap... although you can install them later if you want, there are posts on how to install stock **** again but dunno where they are ...
btw, --> here you have the lastest gapps available: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
for your security, flash this zip with Zip Signature Verification on in TWRP, to ensure that everything its going to be perfect
Thank you very much guys! ill probably flash sonygen but not sure yet! Need some opinions! if anyone is willing to give some i would appreciate!
Thanks for all the help!
Sonygen is pretty nice and fast. It's a themed cm7, so if you like the SE style go ahead and flash it.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk
Awesome news! i decided to flash CM7 again! Did the tutorial terratrix provided right after i flashed it and GSM is working perfectly! (just dont know why i had to import my contacts to the phone! Aparentely CM7 doesnt read contacts that are in the SIM card! No biggie!)
Thank you so much for every help you provided guys!

xperia mini st15i unlocking bootloader

hi guys just got myself a xperia mini today, have root access, and iv installed cwm and i was going to install a custom rom, then noticed most said i need an unlocked bootloader to do this, so checked this with the service number on the phone and it says my bootloader can be unlocked, just realy need abit of guidance of the easiest way to do this. i googled for it and noticed you can do it directly from SE themselves but this voids warranty, is this the best and safest way to do this or is there an alternative.
all help or guidance much appreciated!
there is an alternative. check development section. but official way is much safer.

That's the point, I don't have the original ROM. I was following the tutorial and had NOT realised I wasn't making a backup and I don't think the original author even realized the it would happen that the Canadian ROM would be one of the very few which couldn't be found if things got screwed-up.

First try to get on the tutorial, from this sequence:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190
1.1 We need to install a boot-loader as the Samsung one is very limited and just plain awful! That said, it wasn’t intended to be used for anything other than the Samsung software so it’s not awful from their point of view but it’s pretty unfriendly to us.
To this
2.4 If you are new to use ClockworkMod recovery manager then before doing anything, please have a look at next screen to learn the navigation keys.
If this works, than we will talk what to do next.
Try different official rom, maybe it will work, you don't have anything to lose.

I don't think it's actually the ROM which is the problem but the "baseband". Twice I followed the tutorial and everything worked until it came time to restart the phone. At which time it went into the loop.
I have unlocked G5 and it is not Virgin Mobile - what now!

Hmm try searching for a "fastboot" method, i really don't know what should be a problem, im not an expert in this :/.Ill try to help you tomorrow again .
Is there such a thing as a fastboot for the Galaxy 5 i5500
I'm getting a little mixed-up and feeling a bit MORE stupid - what's the difference between the ROM and the baseband. Can one copy ROM or baseband from a working phone onto another?

Anyone with a Prestigio 5044 able to dump it?

The Prestigio 5044 is a relatively new device, but I'm wondering if anyone has one and is willing to dump its NAND for me? I have one ordered but I'd like to have a dig through its files before it arrives.
There's a guide to dumping it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44509214&postcount=407 and if anyone'd be able to set me up (sadly there aren't any official images yet!), it'd be much appreciated.

Download this http://d-h.st/H62, unlock developer options on mobile (keep pressing build number in about screen)
turn developer option on, tick usb debugging.
Connect cable, select usb mode as MTP device, wait for the driver to install.
After that run as administrator file run.bat from mt6589_rooter folder and reboot.
hello guys please do you know about some custom rom for this device?

Yo dude, I know Im late as hell but if you're still online, can you give an advice on how to flash stock rom?
I did everything according to some guide but when i should get a green circle - meaning flashing succeeded, I dont get anything..it flashes something cause i see the (pink) line moving forward but after it finishes, there's nothing and when i turned on my phone was the same as before. Probably cause of drivers...
I just want to upgrade the official firmware but as I deleted some stock apps, the update fails. So I found the stock rom, now I just have problems installing drivers and flashing it. Geez on my xperia arc s everything was so easy..
If anyone can help, I'd really appreaciate it
