It looks like didn't work . . But, you should read the comments from the link above.
And watch the video http://www.arctablet.com/blog/featu...firmware-root-2gb-space-apps-arnova-9-g3-too/
(Since Arnova 9 G3 had the same method with the Archos 97 Carbon).

Read it on "Flashing your Arnova G2, Arnova G3, Rockchip RK29xx/RK30xx based tablet with Rockchip flashing tool"
Number 1 : Shutdown the tablet, you may want to wait for a few seconds to make sure it does not restart
Then do the above reply from insert a paperclip in the Reset pinhole of the tablet and press the Home button + plug the USB cable.
Wait for it to detect on the computer (make sure you installed the driver).
And then read carefully & watch the video.
Hope it helps you

Sent from my LG-E400 using xda app-developers app

As you can see in the comments, they seem to manage it.
But here's a thing that you must first read carefully, try to understand it, then try that step by step.
If you seem can't to manage it, maybe a friend near you can help. So it will be easier to do.

I don't think so. The okay is the power button..... At least on the Vibrant. On other phones it's the okay or enter button on the keyboard but never the home or back buttons. As a matter of fact the back button does what it's supposed to. Just my 2 cents.

Dude, did you not read his entire post or do you just not understand ebonics?
HIS POWER BUTTON IS GONE!!! If you have ever flashed a rom before with clockworkmod, you would know that the "Power" button is the Ok button, which he doesn't have anymore.

Have you done anything to the file systems? Do you think it will still boot with just a hard reset? You can reset if its been rooted with adb. Do you have the sdk installed on your computer? If not, install the android sdk from the code.google site, and find an adb tutorial on this forum with the search tool..

I can 100% fix this for you. I have a few extra buttons in stock. If you send me the phone, I can solder you on a brand new one. You are not screwed...
Just PM me if you are interested....

Flashing X10a

I am sorry to start a new a thread but for more than 2 hours trying to do this and no luck.
I have an X10a that for some reason is stuck on the Sony Ericsson logo anyway i have been trying to flash it using x10 flash tool but every time i get to where it says press back button and connect usb it just wont work it does not recognize its connected i have Win7 64 BIT. PLEASE HELP
Please help

Tried no luck
There is an option under help i think that is called check driver or similar. Only if every driver is installed it works. If not make sure that you installed the driver from the driver dir. Also unpack the three archives, cause there are the hsusb driver.
Next time use the right section!

Thank u for the advice i am not asking you to do everything for me
Alright. You plug in your device in flash mode and then click check drivers quick before the mode ends. Three lines should appear.
Also you have to check under your device manager if there are 3 semc devices. Make screenies and then we will se

Yup there is, I read that in the battery thread for Xperia s in which doomlord had written that start the phone in safe mode and if the battery drain is still there, its due to a bug in android and if not it's due to an app!!

It's been a while since I fixed mobiles but it sounds like a hardware issue. (I have heard this can be the LCD but it sounds more like the motherboard.)
Have you updated the phone recently or put on new apps?
Before trying to fix it - try uninstalling any new apps, a factory reset or if you recently updated the phone, try downgrading it.
Hope this helps until someone gives you a definite answer.

did u use any cpu controller or something..?
looks like your cpu got busy that moment. Just do the hardway with unplug the battery.
Unless it happened many times, you'd better do like what jordan0001's suggest, factory reset or upgrade or downgrade
Thanks...maybe I'll should try...to upgrade it...:thumbup:
