No..... I didn't had that problem so I don't had to look for a solution. But in general if thing don't work the way the should, I can assume that something went wrong when flashing.
My advice: flash again, follow the well documented instructions right from the first preparations to the final Hard Reset. After that don't install any extra software or restore any back-up until you have the basic stuff working.

Any ideas? TY
Nothing? Help me out
First off , post your question in the offical thread.

you've got issues with your user permissions mate, I suggest doing this while logged on as admin, or failing that, run it all from the root of your HDD
I had this same error as well I reccomend what he said above also Make sure no firewalls are up AT ALL !
My firewall is what gave me this error message ... Hope this Helps
Aha! My firewall is on... I'll take it off and try it again.
Thanks you two... I'll report back
Yeah IT usually is the firewall.... Good Luck Bro And hope it works for you
Worked! Thank you

I have the same thing utility error 240. I turn off the firewall, the active sysc is good, and able to flash kaiser-HardSPLv1 but unable to flash new rom due to the 240 error. Help please?
siracer27, this is the Hermes forum... Can't really help with Kaiser...
Hope you didn't install Hermes Hard SPL on your Kaiser cos you will end up with a brick if you did...
I understand this hermes forum but try to search for error 240 and wasn't able to find it except here. any help, i have att tilt..
Only thing I can suggest is, if you're using XP, then upgrade the .net framework to 3.5.

Rom Update - Connection Problem

I know, I know: First use the board-search and google...
I did that and I couldn't find anything useful for my issue.
I'm trying to update my HTC Prophet G4 to WM6.1...
I wanted to use SoftSPL and after executing the SPL.lnk the screen turns white as it should, but after that Windows XP doesn't recognize my phone anymore as connected.
I tried different USB-Ports, but the "ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe" keeps telling me "Error 260" which means it couldn't connect to my phone.
I'm really desperate cause I've already tried to upgrade for some days...
So if anyone knows how to fix that plz write =D English and German are okay with me

Thanks for posting, but as I already told you: I did my research...
So I already tried different FlashingTools, like ProphetTools etc.
When I SoftSPL, I get to the whitescreen but i cannot make my pc recognize the phone at my usb-port.
When I enter the 3-Colored-Screen manually it shows the usb-connectivity, but I cannot update the ROM...
There was a way (I cannot remember anymore which way I did it, cause I really tried very often) I entered the 3-Colored-Screen and there was "RUU" written in the right upper corner of the screen. But then again the connectivity doesn't work...
Also tried different usb-ports and cables...
I could say that I'm feeling like a weirdo, cause upgrading a rom seems easy and still makes my day miserable xD
//EDIT:
Didn't see the "Lazy_Tool" at the first glance, but now after trying I still get the same error...
//EDIT2:
Realized that the error-code could be useful^^ --> "Error[260]: Update Error" (Sth like that^^)
I had a similar issue. When your PC reports it cannot connect to the phone - does the phone restarts?

If u want to know if I bricked the phone then no =) I can restart it and everythings fine^^
If u meant sth else plz specify your question a bit
@ dioxda2:
Ok I'll experiment a bit^^ I'll get my new hardware soon, so maybe the error won't be a problem^^ We'll see =)

OK, rephrasing: the problem I had with my phone was that while a ROM update was running the phone would restart and I got the same error you did.
It turned out the battery was at fault, after replacing it with a new one - it works great.
If u do as dioxda2 says all should be fine. He is right in saying 260 is a connection error. That means unplugging all usb devices out of ur machine. It also means disabling all other connection software, like my raspberry program that display device screen when active sync'd. I always disable my anti virus and firewall (make sure ur not connected to internet at time).
i always ensure that the flashing tool is on the root drive, not in many folders (so place flash tool direct on ur main hard drive in its folder as uve unzipped) this itself can cuase connection errors. Ensure battery is 50% min too.
Good luck

Easier root?

Probably not quite so simple. Currently rooting the X10 involves entering three commands into a terminal on your computer, booting your phone into recovery mode, and pressing a button on the phone during step 2. The terminal commands could be called from a GUI app that would simplify that and there might be a way to have adb reboot the phone into recovery mode, but there's still a bit of interaction you need to do with the phone yourself.

It's already too easy, and if you can't figure it out, it's probably a dangerous idea to root it because you could ruin your phone easily and most likely not know how to repair it.

The Process to root the X10 isn't too hard with a little bit understanding. If someone can't figure it out , he doesn't need root.
Just my 2cent no offense.
Agreed. This is already simple IF you know your way around a computer just a little. It is well explained and now with video tutorials if you still can't manage to do it, don't do it. Keep your phone up to date, you don't need anything more at this point. No offense intended here too
We are not able to create a one-touch root ATM.
And even if we would be able, why should we do? This Root is easy! The only problems here are driver issues and DeviceID problems.
So for everyone this is not simple enough its a good idea so stay on stock firmware.
A little interaction with phone is good at all, because you learn much about this progress if you just read in the files we provide (thats another reason we released this in batch format).
So just read a bit and you will see how simple the whole idea and the process is!
If you are not expert enough to understand whats happening i'm not sure if you really need root then
Best Regards
Bin4ry
Some people are lazy to figure out the steps.
Dont overfeed them too much.
I tried all the process of rooting on X10 up to the first root batch, the one with long method up to this date of root and its very easy. There are Tutorials and Video.
No, we are not lazy but affraid to break the phone. Ive had OmniaHD before X10 and there was custom ROMs from the man called HyperX that was only double click and connect the phone. I am not saying that those guys didnt make this as simple as they can but there are 100 of problems and tutorials, there are some decrypted ROMS and Official ROMs, there are methods that need Device-ID number and other that does not need that...so, I am reading all of this since root was official and I cannot find one way that is said to be the best and with no problems.
Also: how do I get my ROM that is on the phone on my computer in case I need it back for warranty reasons ? What method is the best to put newer ROM., there is SEUS and other one. Can we put clean official 020 ROM right on the phone and not by UK 016 and then update ?
I mean, there are million questions that we are trying to answer by reading this forum. I admire you guys because this is easy for you but please, be patient with us, programing idiots , there are people that only want better phone and have no clue in programing, like me for instance...cos I only want to remove Moxier and Quadrapop, only for that I want root, nothing else.
Cheers
then simply follow my provided steps and you will have R2 Rom with root.
Afterwards you can deleted moxier and quadrapop.
Just understand: I cannot be made easyer !!!!!!!
The exoploit works like this:
You flash a "old" R1 firmware -> Do the fota -> Copy over some stuff like su and superuser.apk
For now its the easyest way to do.
If we manage to flash customs it wouldnt be much easyer to do oO
Regards
Bin4ry
Yes its lazy. Because some people are lazy understanding ROOT and How it is done.
If you read it carefully and understand it briefly you will not get it bricked and know your mistakes and how solve it.
Plus you can't get satisfaction on doing it easily. Hard work is a good feeling
Tnx a lot for instructions but they are pretty short
New instructions for FULL R2BA023 ROOT
Step 1
Flash Rom with preferred method!
+++++What method ? I cannot find DeviceID in my registry, I have tried to find it with my phone connected on my PC and when it is not connected and there is no that string when I type that in search. Then, can I flash it with Omnius without this DeviceID number ?
Step 2
First startup the phone and activate USB-Debugging:
Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging!
run step 2 and select "update from sdcard" on phone
+++++when to connect the phone ? Turn the phone ON and go to USB debugging -> run step2.cmd -> connect the phone ? -> hit update from SDCard on the phone
Step 3
run step 3 and will root your phone
+++++phone is connected the whole time from step2.cmd ?
ATTENTION: If you have X10i you are DONE!
+++++You see, we need instructions like a blind man ) If I have done it I would write them really step by step so that little kid could do it.
Tnx a lot for your hard work !
Geez gaining root on the x10 was soooooo much easier than gaining root on the HTC Dream (g1)
Pretty much as everyone else has said if you find these simple steps to gain root difficult then maybe you shouldn't be doing it because really it's quite simple.
I've done everything the right way and i don't seem to be suffering from any of the problems everyone else is getting.
The best way to root is on a 32bit os (will save the hassles with 64bit java)
and if you can't find your device id install Seus and boot phone into flash mode then try and find device id again.
I wonder if it's possible to have all these excess How to root and Custom rom threads removed ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711907
Read the instructions if you get stuck re-read the instructions again then if you're still stuck search the forums/thread as i'm sure someone else has asked the same question and has had a answer.
seriously people if you struggle with three steps (or five if on x10a) then you really shouldn't be doing this, the steps are pretty self explanatory. If you still want root after all the warnings gotten off here then here's a video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AZ_10cvd9k
Just do as he does if still you cant do it then put the phone away and find yourself and old SE T18, it may be more suited.

Get SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) from sony ericsson website, through their update things. Install it, and update your phone through that. That will give you device drivers, and then your deviceID should be in registry.

Yes.
The thing is, these guys are experts. When you have an expert writing a guide, a lot of things are assumed that you'd know. For example, there's no need to explain what is meant by 'run step2.cmd' But for someone who doesn't know anything, you'd have to tell them to 'double click the file' Same thing as explaining to someone they have to extract the downloaded files.
I understand what you mean though, there's some gaps in the guide that could be helpful if they were filled up, but hopefully they will get polished after they're done figuring out all the updates happening. For example, new 020 firmware just got released for X10a, so now they have to add that on and maybe change some steps for X10a users. And optimally they'd wanna be able to get custom ROMs working, so they'll need to redo the guide again.
Tnx a lot for your help, I have managed to get it working. Yes, instructions should be step-by-step but not "double clikc this" detailed
Cheers
I'm thinking of what problems would be there if we had released root in the hard way we had before ?!
Everyone wants us to release after we annouced and we always said its too hard
And now this easy three steps are too complicated for some of you.
Seriously :
Just look in the batch files to understand what is going on, you really need no diploma to understand what basic commands are running inside our files. And if you will take a look most of your questions are answered by itsself.

[Q] [Help] Bricked my ZTE V965

Bought a ZTE V965 because it was a special offer and I wanted to give android a try. Nice phone for the money, hardware wise, but software wise it needed some work. No google apps! I rooted the phone with vroot, worked fine. Installed SuperSU and CWM, seemed fine, but CWM is not fully functional. When I boot in restore mode, it doesnt mention CWM, it seems to be the native restore mode.
Tried to install google apps as APK's, but this didnt work. Play store closes instantly. Can't login chrome. Tried to install gapps.zip in recovery mode, error message, not working. I gave the phone a factory reset a few times during all this, and that worked fine.
Then I read a guide for manually installing gapps to the system app folder.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428314
So I installed root explorer, and put several gapps files in the system app folder:
OneTime Initializer.apk
GoogleLoginService.apk
Google Services Framework.apk
Setup Wizard.apk
Gmail.apk
Still not working though, gmail app crashes.
So I wanted to factory reset again, to start with a blank canvas. Big mistake!!! After the factory reset, the google files are not removed! Now when I boot the phone the setup wizard starts and crashes. I haven't found a way to get around it. What makes things worse, the phone is no longer detected when connected to my PC. Before ADB toolkit would detect the phone, no problem. Now nothing.
Any ideas what I can do? All that is necessary (I expect) is that this setupwizard is killed/bypassed/whatever, but I can't figure out how to do it.
I can get into the emergency number dialer, maybe something is possible from there?
Well, as always, immediately after posting, I made some progress! I booted the phone, and got a low battery warning, from which I could access the settings and enable USB debugging. Now I have ADB toolkit connected again. Also, I went into application settings, to kill and disable all these gapps. I managed to do this for all but one, the biggest problem: setupwizard.apk. Maybe because it's running i can't disable it? The option is greyed out. So when I reboot, I still get the setup wizard that crashes.
However, I do have what i believe is a stock ROM (from a chinese website, hard to be sure, but the name suggests it). Might try to flash that one using adb-toolkit.
Finally managed to fix it using linux shell. Killed the setupwizard task, deleted all gapps from system/app, problem solved.
Still would very much like to have working Gapps though. Hopefully this phone will become more popular outside China, so more people will look into flashing it. I've tried, but I can't do it. No fastboot drivers, and the native flash method (putting update.zip on phoen storage) doesn't work. For now I'll stick with the stock ROM and just use it in it's very limited state.
chance you can put a link to that stock ROM you found?

Hello Byte_Me,
I've been looking for weeks how to get GApps on my ZTE V965 and tried everything I could, but each time with a different error. Today you made my day to let me know that I'm not the only one with this problem. Since no-one seems to use this device I wasn't able to find any working tutorial to fix Google Apps on this chinese android. I really hope you can tell me soon how you did this, so I can finally move on. Could you please send the link to your topic when you publish it? Thanks in advance and have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEWYEAR!!!

sctrach that - just updated the buggy apps through the Google Play.

Nice to hear that, it makes the phone a lot more usable, doesnt it?
Any problems? I am still not satisfied, but I guess it's a work in progress.
Annoyances:
- not recognizing callers, some incompatibilities caused by country prefixes in my address book
- no badge notifications on icons, makes it harder too see missed calls, have to look at status bar
- some other stuff i can't think of now

Tried reading through all the links, still can't get the light to turn green on mtk tools. V 965 is rooted by the Romjd app. Downloaded the rom rated 9.5. Installed the Vcom driver.
Can't load scatter files in sp flash tool..
Quite the noob at this stuff and guidance would be great. I did install ZTE driver when i connected the phone. Was that a mistake?

Make sure phone is rooted.
Use MTK tools to install CWM zip package (just follow the instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44660171&postcount=417)
Boot into CWM and install google apps zip package.
I think USB debugging must be switched on in settings.

Guys whatever i soft or hard bricked my v965. It's stuck on the opening ZTE logo. I can't get into recovery mode to wipe the cache.
The ZTE drivers are not loading i guess cause its not in usb debugging mode. Been at this hours and i'm lost.
Any advice?

[Q] Problem rooting Huawei U8500

First off,i would like to apologize for being such an amateur.This is my first post on this forum,so don't get angry on me for breaking some rules (forgive me im new ,idk if i should post this here or somewhere else,don't worry i will be polite ).Anyway as the title says,im having a bit of a problem,or to be more precise a huge one.
So lately i was trying to root my phone,Huawei U8500 which was so buggy,so i decided to root it,install cwm and flash a new ROM.But the problem is i can't get it rooted.I've tried many methods from XDA but none of them worked.Z4 root loads until it displayed acquiring root access,and then the app crashes (closes itself).I've tried Framaroot,but it didn't work either.It said 'try another exploit',but the thing is it displayed me only one.I also tried poot.apk,but it also failed.Telling me '(-) can't get a handle on it:-1 Permission denied'.
(note that all the time my USB Debugging was enabled ! ) All of the apps are at latest version!
So after so many failed attempts with pc-less methods i've decided to try a PC one.The first method i used was Superoneclick,which didn't work.I thought that was because the phones model was not supported.All until a friend of mine told me that he rooted his phone using the same program (he has as well huawei u8500).Every time i try to root with superoneclick it is stuck at the second step(as in screenshot).Then i started googleing and google-ing,until i found a thread with a program called SRSroot,thinking it will safe me from this nightmare that is haunting me for days.But it failed again.The program told me 'ADB Device not found',which made me think about checking the drivers.I've installed the google usb drivers and SDK Manager with all drivers.But still the same happens.So i decided to see if my computer(later many others) recognize my device.After i typed in ADB 'adb devices' it showed me blank.Later i tried to do the same with my other phone and it displayed the device.Another thing i've noticed lately is my computer sees my device as a cd device in windows device manager.It happened with all computers i tried. I've tried it also at my friends(plural,which means more computers).I've tried it on Win7,win XP,and WIN8 and it is still displayed as cd drive.(which is not the case with other phones i've tested!)
I hope someone will read this and help me.I would also like to add, this is not my first time rooting,so i knew what i was doing.
Im so confused,idk what to do,developers pls HELP ME!!!
I will also post screenshots from all the things mentioned above.Hope this helps you figure out the problem
On the adb devices, are you sure it is setup correct, because it needs a set of rules basically. I don't have time right now. But if you search 'adb' in the xda portal (not forum) you will find a windows universal adb installer. That should fix the adb issue. But apart from that I don't know what else you can do.

Gosh that is so confusing. Could you reset your phone or do you have data you want to keep? Because you could perform an ADB backup and try a factory reset and hope that all is righted.
I did factory reset,i also did hard reset,but still nothing works

Short of a new phone, I got nothing. Unless you could get into a recovery, try format the system, causing a brick, flash a 2.3 ftf and then a 4.04 after that, clearing data each time.
pls read my question thoroughly
