Arnova 101 g4 - Freeze no boot - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ,
i'm a french owner of a Arnova tab, model 101 g4:
.ldlc.com/fiche/PB00152581.html
a low cost tab, but it makes the job until yesterday...
it requested an update, then wifi function was completely unavailable, so i tried an update from arnova website, and the provided firmware completely ****s my tablet,
now it doesn't look alive, just the screen who's "lightning"
What can i try? does i have any method to reset this tab? other than the "arnova method" or sending it by mail...
sorry for my english, thanks in advance,

[Q] New firmware released?

I heard that version V10C is released, but I couldn't find any update using LG PC Suite IV with my phone connected.
Anyone upgraded already and how?
No update from LG PC Suite IV for me too.
Here they speak about a V10C they had installed too
http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/showthread.php?p=50128685
but no other information or download link is available. May be it is a release for some region only.
I guess this is the donwload link:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/ANEUBK/V10c_00/V10C_00.kdz
You update it using KDZ_FW_UPD: http://www.mediafire.com/?6do22vdco203d0y
Using the option 3GQCT DIAG.
I did that sucessfully for a Vodafone branded P500 flashing the unbranded V10A:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/APRTBK/V10a_00/V10A_00.kdz
I will try flashing mine with V10C tomorrow,because I don't have time today...
If you are afraid of flashing the V10C,try flashing the V10A and "ask" for updates...mine told me about V10B "Vodafone"...but since I have V10B vodafone,I guess it won't tell me about V10C,because it is the unbranded version...
Use at your own risk..
10A-B-C are same kernel V. but differ region release ?
another one flash B to C and has no differ or update
need changelog =_=
Tried to flash V10C to my phone and gave me error,as the phone only went to emergy mode,I "changed it" for a new one,because I was in the 14 day exchange warranty.
Flashed the new one to V10a,and it only show V10B (vodafone) as update...nothing about v10c.

Hey all
I successfully updated my p500 to v10c.
I used kdz_fw_up in english, windows enabler and the kdz provided in this thread.
I started kdz, "read phone information", 3GQCT DIAG, selected the kdz and strated the update.
Halfway through it, it popped an runtime error, i ignored it and let it continue. It finnished the update and only after the update was finnished I pressed the "OK" button in the error dialog causing the application to close. I was using WinXP SP3.
Phone went to emergency mode, removed battery to turn off, placed the battery again, switched on and...... V10c!

OH YES! It worked ......
I tried the 3 versions (a, b, c) ... but I can't see any difference .... kernel is the same, errors are the same :-(
Have you tried with D version ?
I just flashed mine (stock LG cell) with this one, and no problems of kernel anymore.

I have following versions:
V10d (ARUSSV) от 18.10.2010 - Russia.
V10d (ACISSV) от 25.10.2010 - CIS.
In the first one there is English, but no Deutsch.
May be you could select it using MoreLocale.
Do you need it? Get here http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=195545
Or just ask me to reupload somewhere.
This is V10d (ARUSSV) от 18.10.2010 - Russia.
http://narod.ru/disk/594135001/V10D_00.kdz.html
it has English, Russian, and using MoreLocale2 you can choose main European languages, Chinese too.
was getting real annoyed with the random LGMITS force stop errors and forced me to consider flashing. no updates found if i use the conventional pc suite method.
I successfully flashed mine from unbranded v10b (i bought my unit locally here in the philippines) to v10c using kdz updater. never encountered any error at all.
when phone rebooted, all my apps were still there as well as my customizations. the only thing different is my phone got unrooted (missing Super User Icon) which I remedied via running z4root again.
I checked settings > about phone and verified version was indeed v10c now.
i connected my phone to lg pc suite 4 and it said there was an update available??? curiously, i let it try to update but as soon as the LG Mobile Support Tool was invoked by PC Suite, it said I already have the latest version (v10c) and stopped at that. Weird.
Anyway, haven't seen the LGMITS force close errors yet, so hopefully this f/w works for me.
UPDATE: started getting the LGMITS errors again. argh!
In these days my O1 should comes back from service (IMHO the GSM reception was very bad). On the LG service site they write "Repaired" and "Operation executed: software update". So, I think we could clarify something about the various V10x versions as soon a read the new version installed on my O1...though I have the suspect to still see "V10A" (like before send the phone to the service)...IMHO it is not possible that the problem was a SW problem, otherwise I should not be the only one with a very bad network reception...
We will see.

Bricked vodafone 890n?

Hello there,
i have a smartphone vodafone 890n and recently after of an official update of the stock rom my phone keeps rebooting at the system recovery screen...the only thing that i can do is to get it only in fastboot mode..
I did a hard reset aswell but there is no changes on it,everytime that i power it on boots into the system recovery mode...
even the sdcard doesnt work...
any change to fix it? my phone has no root,was in the original state!
OTA update failed -> vodafone 890n bricked
Hello Filippos86,
judging by your nickname, I guess it was the Greek version of the vodafone android (4.4.265.21.T3.141007.KTU84P.VF.GR). I got the same problem. After I have agreed to an over-the-air update (which was annoyingly popping up for a month or so) the phone got bricked the way you describe. By the way the update has not applied due to some permission errors, as the messages were stating.
Did you manage to have it fixed somehow? Did you take it to a vodafone shop? I am abroad for the moment so I don't have this option.
Thanks in advance
P.S. A friend of mine has an updated version (4.4.317.16.T3.150915.KTU84P.VF.GR) installed. He is a bit older and he could not understand what I was talking about. Obviously updated without realizing, but it works for him. Theoretically that is the version that I should have had after the update.
Hi
I need a Greek rom too.
The vodafone stores want 18 euro to flash a rom.
I want to do it for free
Please if you find a Greek rom let me know.
Have you find a greek rom?Please help me...

Lg k7 bricked

Hi everyone,
I followed this tutorial:
http://www.repairshopusa.com/phone/lg-k7-k330-unbrick-method/
to unlock my LG K7 to all other providers since I live in europe and this mobile phone was bought in USA (TMOBILE).
Software version was 33011g (or smthn, g was the last character)
LGUP notified me the flashing was COMPLETE, but now my mobile phone wont turn on at all, doesn't respond to power button (or recovery mode), but my laptop plays the usb sound when i plug it in, still no sign it's alive.
Help please.
Couple of questions,
can the phone be saved?
can i restore it to its original firmware without original file (all .kdz's on the forum for K7 have a different character at the end of software build: h, j, k and mine is 33011g.)?
can it be unlocked if the above answers are positive?
Please help, this is an emergency case.

Unlocking Cloudio set top box (service is dead)

Hi all,
I inherited a "Cloudio TV" box, originally meant for Cloudio IPTV service, which can't even be activated now because the service is dead.
I don't know what the hardware is, but on the bottom it says "Internet Smart OTT Model HDM5". The user manual is there: https://usermanual.wiki/Skyworth-Digital-Technology/A6
If I do a full reset here’s what I get: https://i.stack.imgur.com/raZRi.jpg
Whatever choice I make I get to the activation screen: https://i.stack.imgur.com/uztZ8.jpg
Is there a chance that I could flash a new firmware on this box?
PS: sorry for the not-clickable links, as I have under 10 posts I'm not allowed to post any URL.
Any help appreciated.
