I start this thread to explain my problem.
Until a few days I had my Folio 100 running FolioMod 1.4 ROM without problems, everything perfect, until I decided to install CM7.
CM7 boots with a hundreds lines of text and I decided to return to FolioMod 1.4, but my surprise was that on first boot worked perfectly, but when I power off and then power on again, the screen goes black indefinitely.
It happens with all firmwares except with the original ROM from Toshiba thats works fine.
Any ideas?
I post solution lots of times. No one want to search forum.

Thank you very much! It works! It takes me several hours and days, trying to solve the problem. I searched the forum but found nothing.
Thank you again.

Ok, so before the general populace of the forum, looks over this post thinking it's some noob who cant read through the forums to solve there own problem, i would like to say thanks in advance to anyone who can seriously provide some help.
Problem is as follows:::
1,)Phone is working fine using mini-winmo+cyan droid
2,) -PROBLEM- My android stops working, so now im stuck using a lite version of winmo
3,) Tried formatting the sdcard with the lite version winmo built in sdcard formatter, doesnt solve anything, dont exactly know what i was trying to solve with this step.
4,) I decide to get a nice fancy version of winmo, figured it would be as easy as just flashing it once n done.
5,)Decided on going with Ozrom, looked the best at the time.
6,) Run the ruucustom as admin, everything goes fine.
7,) -PROBLEM- after flashing the first boot leaves me stuck on the bootscreen.
So after all that i took the advice and tried to get back to the stock Tmous ROM, but as im typing this im still stuck on the Stick together screen, and also just for a control group i downloaded the latest HD2 cell winmo rom release, and that left me hanging on there version of the boot screen.
Same problem, different roms.. stuck on the loading/boot screen.
But, with the stock rom after playing around with removing the battery, simcard,sdcard and what have you i got the stock rom to boot!!!! I was so excited, i skipped the "How to use the on screen keyboard" tut and was typing in my email info when the phone reset on its own and all my hopes went down the drain... hopefully i will get some help on the issue, and like i said previously in the first paragraph i appreciate any and all help.
thanks.
---UPDATE---
Phone is on and working, intermittently.
When i plug the phone into the charger and wait for the amber light, it will boot up and actually enter into windows, now heres the kicker, removing the charger and using the phone will result in the phone turning off and restarting itself, hanging on the stick together screen.
Removing the battery, and replacing the battery after i push all the buttons, the same way you would power cycle a TV remote, and then connecting it to a charger is the only way ive been able to maintain the operation of the device.
Any ideas?
Try doing task29 reinstall winmo Rom of choosing.. see if that helps.. also I flash everything from bootloader. Also check battery pins make sure they aren't bent..

I received a G Tablet which had been used for development work for a few months. The person giving it to me (not the dev who has left) said the tablet was working fine, but had just become frozen at a reboot after he had tried to erase personal data from the tablet. I asked him if he had erased the sd card and he said "maybe" but that he couldn't remember. I powered the tablet on and sure enough it displayed two lines on a black background, one of which said something like loading kernel.
Now, these tablets were all rooted, and had Android 2.3 on them, via one of the ROMs discussed here. I don't know which one however.
So, I tried using NVflash to flash the tablet back to a stock ROM. Tablet then got stuck in a boot loop; I would see the Viewsonic logo, then the G Tablet logo, and then this would go on forever.
So I shut it down and tried again. This time Nvflash failed almost at the last step after having written most of the image.
And so here I am now, with a totally dead tablet. I cannot power it on. No combination of power or volume up/down buttons work. The only sign of life is when I plug it into its charger, and see the charging light come on.
I confirmed again with the person who gave me the tablet that the device was working just fine before it froze at a reboot after his erasing attempts.
Is there a way out of this? I hope so. Please help!
Thanks very much

I would try popping it open and unplugging the internal battery then plugging it back in. Also hit the internal reset button while you're in there. It's pretty hard to actually kill one of these tablets. PM me if you need any other help.

Started my own thread, didnt mean to hijack. =)
Thanks, I will try removing the battery and let you know.
As for NVflash, I believe the latest version is here:
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/171...-using-either-11-or-12-based-images-g-tablet/
However in my case I have no idea whether I have 1.1 or 1.2 and there is no way to determine this. Which one should I choose?
Paul
Doesn't matter for NVFlash, just download all of the flash files again because it might be that you have a bad download. Also make sure you have the right drivers installed since the drivers that automatically install when you plug it in sometimes don't work.
I'm pretty sure that if it boots past the birds, the hardware is working okay, so you should run the FORMAT version for NVFlash and then I'd run just a CWM flash setup and see if you can get into CWM and delete the partitions from within that.
The best thing to flash as far as ROMs would be Bekit's 1105 which is stock OTB with a few key changes. If you can't get the 1105 to play nice, you might really have some hardware problems.
I would go with the 1.2 BL, it will give you access to the newer roms as it appears that dev for the 1.1 BL seems to be dwindeling. I upgraded mine to 1.2 the other day and it worked great.
I need a little bit of help here
so i tried reverting back to stock but every time i would Odin back to JFD well everything would be just fine until the phone would reboot and then the Samsung splash would come out and then well the screen goes off and it wont turn on again.
Im sorry if this has been answer before.
Ive been searching since yesterday.
here is what i did and what happened.

Mod please erase this post.
Hi, I need help for my I777... I really don't know what to do.
I have been on Slim Bean for 5 months (previously I had CyanogenMod 9 & 10), but four days ago it started to reboot randomly. At first I didn't pay much attention to these crashes, but then they became more and more frequent, until the free interval was only a few seconds. There were no strange processes active, and even wipe cache / wipe dalvik / fix permissions solved the problem. In the meantime I also noticed that the phone was doing like phantom power button presses, and it did also while I was in CWMR, making it really hard for me to do this things.
I did a full wipe and clean install, but nothing changed.
So I tried to revert back to stock gingerbread with heimdall on my mac, and to flash different official rom versions, either rooted or non rooted... but nothing worked. Countless full wipes, mr Cook wipe script... nothing. The phone even rebooted while it was in download mode and Heimdall was flashing new kernel and rom.
I tried also with odin from a PC. The last firmware I flashed was official UCMD8 Jeally Bean Stock, non rooted, from your download repository, which also had bootloader in it... but nothing.
Reebots are still there. It seems that random presses are gone on Stock Recovery, but maybe it's just a matter of time... while the phone is switched on phantom presses are still there.
I tried everything I know... events seem to be completely random and I can't find any trigger for them. The problem is passing from rom to rom without noticeable changes... I don't know what to do.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you very much... and sorry for the long post, but it's quite difficult to describe such a strange behaviour.
Sounds to me like a faulty power button. There are a few guides on how to repair it yourself, or you can send it in to Mobile Tech Videos and they can fix it for you at a price.
I agree with SteveMurphy, you have described the classic symtoms of a failing power button.
Before attempting a replacement, or sending it off, I do suggest buying/trying a can of contact-cleaner (after completely removing the board from the device). This worked for me us a few months ago, and has reportedly worked for others as well.

I tried this solution, but it didn't work... Tomorrow I'll go to a local repair centre and see if they can do something for me!
Thank you guys
Hi there !
i'm a complete noob when it comes to flashing and stuff and this is the first time i post on a forum and I've been surfing the net for over 10 years now. goes to show that i really need your help and i wouldn't bother any of you unless I've done everything possible and already shown on the previous posts that describe the same problem as mine.
long story short, 30 days ago I've installed the Lolipop Rom 5.1.1 for my i I9100, and followed every step shown on this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/rom-cyanogenmod-12-t2955551
2 days later, my phone screen start heating up and turned completely white. tried installing the stock Rom, everything goes well, Odin detect the phone the rom gets installed without any problem but as most of the guide says, i need to enter to recovery mode to wipe out all the data and reset the setting to factory mode, but since the screen is still white, i can't do that. is there anything else that i can do to fixe this exept for the Usb Jig thingy ?
