still no luck
hi
still no luck
do i need special drivres to detect device if its in bootloader ?
it dosent show any thing in device manager when i connect it while its in boot loader
on running upgrade utility it comes back with error 260 connection error saying cannot find device (i am stuck in bootloader)
any advices ??
please help !!!!
The fact that you can still enter the bootloader means that it is not bricked, so first advice would be, as is so well presented in the Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy, "Don't Panic".
Enter bootloader without any SD Card or SIM left in the Athena.
Then, plug it to the USB port, and see if it goes from "serial" to "usb".
Then try to flash first the Black Dual PK ROM available on the forum (in the WM6 section), or an official ROM available from the Wiki, for instance.
hi
tried to flash it with both and came out with same error
260 connection cant find device
and i cant even see any changes in devicemanager but it dose goes serial to usb when i connect
and my pc is not detecting the device (just like that depressed robot from hich hikers guide to galaxy )
Do you have Windows XP or Vista ?

xp (pc i am trying to upgrade i also have vista on other pc which i havent tried yet should i try that ?)
nop no luck in vista ether same error still no connection
both pc have netframework 2
activesync in xp and mobiledevice center in vista
but after connecting device nothing happens in device manager there is no new device
(could it be beacouse of faulty cable? )\\(noi have tryed 2 different cable )
is it worth getting cradle ??
No no. I think the problem comes from the flash utility that requires that the Athena be detected prior to flashing.
I know that with the Universal, some flashing utilities could force flashing when connecting the device already in bootloader mode...
So there must be an easy way to bypass the device detection and go on with the flash process. I'll try and find out, and maybe one of the gurus will cruise by and find it for ya in the meantime.
In the meantime, don't freak out and be patient. Your Athena's not bricked, probably the ROM that's screwed up. We only need to find a way to do that exclusively from the bootloader (chich I know is possible, that's the whole point of the bootloader ).

Hi
Try a hard reset ( Volume down+reset) and then get into the boot loader(Camera+reset~10seconds) then flash the PK dual rom. Don't panic, Your athena is hard spl patched therefore not bricked. If that not works down load the exact official rom for your device flash that then flash the PK dual rom. try Redownload the rom again.
Good luck

hi
thankes i think u understood the problem it is utility which fails before even starting beacouse of no connection see if u can find any thing
and yes i tryed hard reset and then tryed to flash with project black rom and i have downloaded latest t mobile rom from oficeal website but as i said before it fails with connection error it starts up and box says ''verifying information on your pda fone please wait'' and minut later it comes up with error 260 connection error '' please check following
1 your pdafone is connected to usb cable /cradle
2 usb cable connected to pc
(wich is basicly same if you try to nrun upgrade with out connectind pda )
(and yes i have tryed it with 2 different cables and it dose change from serial to usb)
some ting intrestin i foun in orignal update utility faq
ERROR [260] : CONNECTION
This error occurs when there is an “open port error” before upgrading the CE ROM image.
Solution: You can reset the device and run RUU again. If you still encounter an “OPEN PORT ERROR” again, reset your computer and try again.
is possible because device is in bootloader ?
or am i doing some ting wrong?
Reboot your PC, make sure you are not using a USB hub, try it with each USB port on the PC.

good idea but dident work after 4 on board ports and 2 hub ports no joy at all
by looks of it upgrade utility is trying to read info from my device and could be failing for 2 reasons
1 it is not detecting device
2 info in pda is corrupted and could not get any info from device
well thats my theory but not really sure any suggestions??
Is your PC running XP or Vista? I got the impression reading the post that XP machine works better in unlocking. I think the info was posted by Olipro himself if my memory is right.

it is running xp the one i am working on now (i do have 2nd pc running vista 64 bit )
but i am doing unlocking in xp
all i want to find out is dose device needs any drivers or dose it gets detected if device is in bootloader ?
if thats the the case i dont see any new devices in xp devicemanager
No no, it doesn't. Couldn't find it for Athena, but don't have much time lately, alas.
Maybe you should PM one of the gurus asking how to flash a ROM straight from bootloader without having the device detected by WinXP. I believe there's a small, easy manipulation to make, but can't remember it for the life of me. :-S

i found this in wiki and first three posts are empty but followed the procedure and downloaded all three roms and still no joy error
''Problems using the Athena Unlocker - the Black Screen of Death
Using The Athena Unlocker tool (developed by Olipro) is a 3-stage process. Most users get through the first stage but as they start stage 2, get a black screen where their device becomes unresponsive and so cannot proceed with the unlocking. See these posts
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=169 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=176 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=226
It is always recommended that you first take out your MiniSD card. You can then follow the instructions below.
* Get one of the ROMs in this link and extract it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314672
* Get your device into bootloader (the three-colour screen; You can get there by pressing the Camera key + Volume key + Soft Reset at the same time)
* Connect your device to your PC (even if the PC shows no sign of recognising it, it does) and the SERIAL shown on the screen of your device will change to USB)
* Hit the ROM Upgrade Utility and upgrade your device.
* Once the upgrade is completed, configure your device (Calibrate screen, set time zone, etc).
* Now continue with the Unlocker, to the end.
It is important to complete the unlocker to the end or else you will miss out on flashing your radio, with a common symptom of your gps not working.
Good Luck and enjoy your improved device!

now i am still stuck will it make any difference if i try it in different xp pc other then the one i started the process ?(and screwed it up)
Please ensure all software firewall or IP filtering apps are turned off then reboot the PC. After rebooting, confirm the apps are not running and blocking anything. If you are unsure, then try it from a freshly installed XP.
Put the device in Bootloader mode and try it again.

good idea
i have already tryed with firewalls and virus protection off but doing it in fresh xp might just work small question do i need to install active sync or is it not needed (any way ill try both first without and then with )
ill report back in about 3 hours (i know i am sad and havent got a life but its worth a try )
Yes, the wiki confirms what I thought but didn't voice out loud as yet (I was sure about it for the Universal, but not for the Athena): the upgrade utility doesn't *require* that it be Activesynced. That's, as I'd said, te whole point of the bootloader.
If you still have problems uploading the new ROM to your Athena after following the wiki thing, then it *does* mean that there is some external factor playing dirty, so the firewall to check (and some anti-virus software also scan network connections) indeed is a good idea.
Keep us posted, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
everytime i try and flash it it comes up with an error code saying there was a problem with the connection, any ideas? and also when i start the flash it disconnects me from actsync and windows mobile device center....
To flash a ROM you need to stay connected via USB, otherwise it won't work ... just make sure that the connection is established and your problem should disappear (perhaps using a different USB port may solve your problem?)
i make sure that on my pc as well as my pda its connected but as soon as i take the last step of installing the ROM and the instal starts it automatically disconnects me and never moves from 0%

There could be so many causes! ... it will probably be easier (and faster) for you to follow "The Complete Leo Flashing Video Guide" available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621930..
Hi can somebody help me , how to connect SGS2 to Kies via wifi ? ( not the Kies Air one ) , but there is an option on " wireless and network " setting,it supports synchronization with kies via wifi . thank you in advance. help
So why dont you use the Kies Air there nothing wrong with connecting to computer via this mode...
I may be wrong but I think this is the way you connect using the KA.
The thing is I just want to try it out since we have this function so why not use it ?, I think it's not the same as Kies Air , anyway thank you for your suggestion .
You start Kies, then you go to your phone and start "Kies Wifi", your computer asks you to accept the connection ... that's it.
speaks for itself I think.
I've tried many times before and it's said " No Device " but with kies air no problem , is it just me or anybody having the same issue ?
those two are completely different!
Kies Air gives you access to your phone's internal sdcard letting you copy/move/delete/whatever files via the (!!) webbrowser!
Kies WiFi establishes a connection between the phone and Kies Software on your Computer via WiFi. You start Kies on your computer, start Kies Wifi on your phone, wait until it shows your computer in the list (assuming you are in the same network), click on the computer in the list and then accept the request on your computer. Kies is recognizing the phone and you are connected.
No device means there is no connection. Make sure you are in the same network, otherwise it won't work!
Thank you for your suggestion , but everytime I tried to connect to kies via wifi nothing happened except it just show me only my network name ( see the attachment below ) and yes both devices connected to the same network.
i have the same problem and did not get any solution yet and by the way do u have any wifi problems like u r connected to the wireless network but there is no internet data transfer please any one help
I've had the same problem, scanning for devices and the computer doesn't show up.
Try'd turning wifi off and on, restarting phone and it still didn't work. Computer has no firewall running at all, so its not getting blocked.
Try'd it a day later, it worked again :/
not helpful but just make sure your computer has been restarted recently, just to make sure the 2 (i think) kies process's are running in the background
can anyone upload a copy of kies wifi backup plzzzz
i uninstalled it by accident using titanium backup, from my wife's SII :s
Here is a step by step walkthrough and video http://www.careace.net/2011/05/03/how-to-download-and-use-kies-air/ for the Samsung Captivate; should work similarly for the GS2.

Hello all,
Lumia 710, Firmware - 1600.3007.7740.11465
Dev Info: RM809, PC: 059L3R1
EDIT: So first question I guess is if any of the above can be an issue?
So I got my hands on this demo unit, I was able to remove the demo firmware and load the full thing. Phone works well, though I have no microsim to fully test it out. I wanted to update the 710 but I'm having issues. I check via the Zune software but have several issues:
If 710 wifi is on and internet on comp is working:
1) Connect phone to zune,
2) Sync options load.
3) Manually check for update.
4) Wait about 2 minutes.
5) Phone is up to date, so no available updates.
This seems wrong as most if not all have the Tango update, so I search and find the update trick. I try to follow the guide but it goes as follows:
1) Lumia device has wifi turned off (no cell data as ni micro-sim) OR in airplane mode.
2) Load Zune software.
3) Connect device.
4) Receive error about "Can not make a connection from your phone to the internet". I initially assumed this was expected and just clicked ok.
5) Manually try for update in the settings
6) Wait 2 minutes.
7) Get another error; "Can not connect to update service at this time".
EDIT: As a note, the update check lasts about 2 minutes either way, and if I even leave the net connected, when I plug the device in in airplane mode it will still say it can't connect to the update service, thats why I'm asking about the initial error of "can't create an internet connection to your phone"...
I then searched for solutions to THAT error, and have since, enabled mobile services, removed and refreshed cirtificates, and restarted an event service. Then re-installed the Zune software, all to no avail. That is, on reconnection, I still get that Connection Error.
So main points have been made, next thing to note is I am not using the original USB as I don't have one. I have tried however several others. Standard USB, HTC (older), other data-capable USB. All same result. Is this possibly the only reason, or is it something from above?
Are there files or more information I can post to get some more help? I would really like to get this working. So any and all useful advice is welcome.
Also, didn't see a 710 specific forum, and many posts on it here, so I posted this question here. If it's the wrong place, mods please move or let me know.
Start Zune
Turn off Data connection and Wifi on the Phone
Connect the Phone with the PC (USB)
Start the update search in Zune
About 3 seconds later, disconnect your PC from the internet (Turn WLAN off).
Zune finds Mango-Update. Press OK.
Connect to the internet again and install the update.
There you have it, this quick and easy trick will work if (and only if ) your carrier has already began rolling out the update.

Ahoy, Thanks for the quick reply. However, this is not my major question, I've found the trick several times. What I want to know is if that weird error message I get has anything to do with the process. No matter what I always get the error, and subsequently I get the "cannot connect to update service" error. All is as I said in my first post....
The device has 809 written behind the battery. But I will try to load 803 firmware if that may be the issue, thoughts?
Edit: So I'm thinking the problem is with the Zune software. Despite a complete removal and reinstall I still get that connection error message. It seems if the device has no data connection, Zune wont connect (or can't) to the net to check for any kind of updat. The subsequent "we can't connect to the server" error message is consistant and happens with another wp I try while it's also has its data connections off. This is what I wanted to ask if its common, or if there is something seriously wrong with my install. It won't find updates at all if the phone's data connections are off. Any advice on this?
Hi ,
I AM Windows 7 - 32 bit user .
I just sat down to write all the details after reading all the threads available in google regarding error code 31 problem . Lot of blogs i refered but still my Problem is not solved.
So let me elaborate my issue . I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100) . I never had any problems in connecting my mobile with windows 7. whenever i connect it , it gets detected and works fine till last month. But now suddenly my mobile is not getting detected in my PC. I cant transfer important files from PC to mobile. My mobile uses Android version 4.1.2
In the Device manager section when i try to view what is the problem , The device name is there in universal bus controllers with a yellow color exclamation mark . When i try to fix the issue and trouble shoot it , nothing seems to work .
WINDOWS CANNOT THE LOAD THE DRIVER FOR THIS DEVICE. Error code 31 ---> this message pops up. I tried to uninstall and update the driver , then also its not getting updated, it tells access is denied , contact ur manufacturer support for further assistance it is telling.
1)I have tried it in different ports
2) I tried installing the PC kies 3 from Samsung Page itself . installed Kies still device is not detectd.
3) Tried to fix this issue reading the previous threads and posts. not able to solve at all
4)Tried deleting the UPPER FILTERS .
The phone is charging well and is working perfectly. I tried to connect it with different cable (assuming its a cable problem) still no use.
In my Device , ----> went to Developr Options checked and uncheckd the USB debugging mode--> No use .
Tried to update the driver via online software, (Windows suggested trouble shooter solution). ---> No use.
uninstalled and again installed KIES ----> NO use.
The yellow exclamation mark is alone prominent in device manager section with error code 31.
Some one please please Help me out . Will be very thankful if you can help me in this. Not only me , My brother has GALAXY S duos, his mobile also is not detected in my PC.
Tried doing all things that are possible
I downloaded the driver needed to be installed from the samsung website itself , when i try to install it , i am not able to
THe message i get is ---> UR phone is in use , disconnect it and then install This message pops up even when my device is not connected.
Access is denied to install the drivers.
Somehow please fix this , after asking many users and consulting many friends i came to know that my Device is not having any problem and its the WINDOWS 7 which is causing a big problem.
the device which got connected and was working fine , suddenly throws a error like this . i am totally fed up . PLEASE help.

it may looking awkward but try another data cable to connect it may work for u
Given it's more than likely (99.9999%) a Windoze problem, what exactly do you expect anyone here to do about it (or Samsung for that matter) ?
