Drat. Got to this one too late. Sorry
Anyways, the Atom does have the tendency to lose track of its own extended ROM (You can actually see this happening if you use the WM5 hidden storage revealer - which ironically happens to cause the problem sometimes as well).
Symptoms include:
- A phracking long boot time (>7 minutes, seems to hang)
- Screen goes out of alignment
- Camera, Autoconfig, Equalizer don't work.
- Hard reset doesn't help.
- EXTROM info is missing from device settings (shows as blank) - tho sometimes the device works without this anyhoo.
- CMOS version is also missing (the device definitely won't work in this case)
Probable cause:
- Someone or something just tried to write to your hidden storage root. (Eh?)
Far as I know there's no method to recover other than flashing your phone again. Just one of the design flaws of the Atom, I guess...
(Yes, I feel for you. I had to solve this myself too, and I didn't want to send it in. Thankfully, this isn't a common problem. )
I've just downloaded the latest Rom from seeo2.com hongkong and I had the very same problem.
My XDA Atom Exec is frozen at the O2 screen.
mun66, if you read this, could you explain how you fixed it?
thanks.

would you plz tell here which rom u used for this ????????
Well, my Atom Exec will do the same sometimes.
But the following method works everytime!!!
Take out the battery. Charge it with a charger until full !!!!
Put it back to the machine, it works every time !!!
Or you may try just charge it in the machine for a few hours and see if that works. Since I always have a spare battery charged, every time that dumb thing stuck, I just changed the battery and it waked up again.

You guys just need to go into bootloader mode before performing an upgrade. For the XDA Atom just press Power+Dpad(center)+stylus reset momentarily, and its now in bootloader mode. RUN again the Update program. If you still experience the same thing, the update file you downloaded might be corrupted. You have to download again and flash your device again.
Mine is still stucked in O2 though done all of the above ways,
got the new ROM and flash it, but still stuck in it.
PLS HELP ME GUYS!!!

You might want to send it in the the service centre for a check, just in case it's a hardware problem.. If you still face the same issue even without installing any software..
That's probably a good idea, but i'd like to try some tricks on many threads before.
And also I've heard that O2 service center are not cool

Do keep us posted..
I will face the same problem if i install too much programs.. I guess it's either Pocket Plus, Diary 2 which is causing my problem.. Now wondering if i should change to Atom Life, since they announce WM6... If only there's a perfect phone.
Thank God, it's working after 5x flashing but it still had bug.
I still have to take the battery off for at least 15 minutes if I try to reset the Atom.
Sure 1 thing for ATOM, IT SU**S!!!
i have a friend also has a trouble like this ,but he has solved the problem when he charged the exec. do not you have a try ?
I just picked up one of these to play with.
Mine gets by the O2 screen but if I have a few apps on it it loads the Today screen but then freezes and won't let me access anything either by hard key or screen. Soft reset just repeats the cycle.
This is with only around 4 apps loaded. One of them must be a culprit?
By the way, it came shipped with WM6.0 (ROM: WWE_RC2170507B2).
Hi guys. I'm encounting some problem with my gtab 10.1. Since it have a very rage model name for you (SHW-M380K), i think this's because it come to me strangly from Korea, I have problem with rooting my tab, sometimes the root permission works, sometimes it's not.
And the ClockWorkMod recovery is acting very weird, its fuctions work as usual but the screen is all messed up, like the noise effect from an old tv, i can't see the words, the only way i could use it is to lock at xrecovery menu images from internet and blindy press buttons, i did my backup this way. (When it comes from the store, the stock recovery work perfectly)
With this two problem, i have not guts to flash any of your beautiful roms, but again, I love to!
Please answer me, would you guys find out what i did wrong with my tab, and (if maybe), what rom can my tab (SHW-M380K) flashs in your prefer?
my tab have 3G, wifi and all other services. So it's hard for me to say which model am i on, yes i'm a noob, and i even am not an english speaker, so sorry for my dump questions and bad english.
Any one please respond, i'm very apriciated if you guys could help me out
Please, anyone could help me?
I don't think our roms would run on your (SHW-M380K) tab. Sorry, but then again, I'm probably wrong
M380k

Dear friends!
My Sony Tablet S is bricked, I cannot doing anything now, all I can now is accessing recovery mode.....I need an original firmware for Sony tablet S, please help me if you have. I have tried some update firmware... but it's not works. Please help me, my tablet is like a brick now..
Dear neo.sys,
if You have only root your tablet and not find in this forum a file to recovery from sd card your system (there are some file that you can test searching in similar problem) You can only attend a Sony tablet upgrade to ICS and search again in this forum....
but if You are in valid assistance period contact with email Sony assistance (say it only the problem that You have not cause) and they retired your tablet and repair it free of charge; for now is this....
...
That's mean I will put my tablet S back in a box and waiting for next upgrade?
I just bought it yesterday....what the...!
I have updated 3.1 with OTA, root and using SystemApps Remover to remove some system application. And now.. it's brick. Is there any way to get back in the original firmware? (My original firmware is broken also)
Totally dead??

The question is - have you made 'rescue-backdoor'?
(lower value of build.prop incremental)
If yes - we can help you. If no - wait for ICS.

Test this ( with main connect; this delete all your data and app and root !!):
1) turn off tablet
2) press together button on and vol+; at Sony logo relase vol+
3) at new screen select "reset to factory setting" with button vol- and vol+
4) press button on to conferme
5) select "Yes delete all user data" with button vol- and vol+
6) press button on to conferme
7) tablet restart with a reset to default if have a chance...
but if You have buy it yesterday a new tablet You can have a Sony assistance...

Dear Condi and Gonzo!
Thanks for your reply, I think may be it's unlucky day of me
1. I do not making a 'rescue-backdoor'
2. I have tried using Receovery Mode to factory resetting it. It's worked but system program (that I remove it when using System Apps Remover) do not exits, because I remove S-launcher so.. I cannot access a home menu.... Can not doing anything.
This is my About Tablet S
Android Version 3.2.1 (Release 2)
Kernel 2.6.36.3
Build NUmber THMAS0012400
Is there anyway for re-flashing this tablet with original factory firmware? I don't need ICS, only need 3.2 ....

Boot your tab in normal way, if it boots ok, even without stock launcher, with black-screen, it should still be accessable via adb.
Check if 'adb shell' works. If yes - it can be fixed easly.

condi
Dear Codi!
Yes, I adb shell work... Please show me how to fix it... I'm very appreciated that
Do you have the status bar (with the wifi and battery indicators) on the bottom of the screen after deleting data and reset to factory from recovery and reboot?
If yes, you can access the paremeters menu and choose "accessibility". You will be asked if you want to download an accessibility app. Say yes and you will be in the market. Ask for a launcher of your choice and install it. Then you will be able to install a text editor, edit build.prop and get an OTA update but be carefull, you may download the unrootable kernel 10!
Maybe you can also ask here for the s-launcher APK and install it from recovery with adb... I can't retrieve it since my tablet isn't rooted (kernel 10)...
Good luck!
Sorry Condi, I haven't seen that you're handling the thing because I was typing my post while you were answering!

Does anybody here have s-launcher APK? I really need it and please show me how to install it from adb
I really hate this ...
first ignore every hint regarding backdoor and recovery ...
did deep changes in the system and brick the device ...
afterwards crying and asking for support (our time) ...
OMG ... first of all you can go to the Google Play market and install from there a alternative launcher like GoLauncher HD and RootExplorer ...
In a next step you can ask here for the original s-launcher file and copy it back to /system/app
but to be honest ... how du.. must I be to delete the only launcher on a system?
@Condi
Good morning my friend .. how are you?
I admire your helpfulness ...
but IMHO we should ignore such a lazy guy if they ignore all our hints.
Have a nice day and best wishes to Magda.
done.
unpack, run, be happy

No problem I'm glad that your tab is working. Thanks for the beer
Now, before you make any system modifications - run AiO tool, and make rescue-backdoor. It will give you possibilty to reflash your current firmware,
if you will mess something.

Hi internet users,
I would like to solicit your help regarding a quite strange problem with my phone.
As indicated in the title, It is a Samsung GT-S5839I.
In order to create coherent whole i will sum this up with questions and answer.
What is it that, for me, is very likely to be the origin of the problem ?
I think i can say that the origin of the problem might be caused by an installation of a wrong ROM.
In other words, immediately after the installation of this one, the problem appeared.
What happens when i turn on the phone?
If i try to turn it on normally using the power button ; the phone turns on correctly but the screen turns out to be black and backlighted.
I mean by this that i can't see anything, the buttons are enlightened, there is light on the screen (maybe caused by the backlighting), but there is no way to know what is going on.
The only clue i have is the noise that the animation done at boot up.
When the phone ends his booting task, it is likely that it reached the unlocking screen.
If i try to turn it on normally using the volume up, down and the power button ; It happens the exact same thing that when i try to turn it on normally.
If i try to turn it on using the volume up, down, home and the power one ; It happens the exact same thing that when i try to turn it on normally.
In other words, the recovery mode doesn't work.
What can i do ?
I can access to the files on my SD CARD using the Samsung Kies 2.6 software.
I can access to the unlocking screen without visual returns.
What i can't do ?
Use the phone's touch keys .
Access to the ADB module.
Access to the download mode.
Access to the recovery mode
Thanks in advance for the attention you will bring me.
@chikamtsu, You do officially hard bricked your device ( both modes are not accessible ) .
There is so little remained to do mate, you can get a little device called "USB jig" as a last resort to force your phone into Download mode ( may or may not work,even if i provide instructions). As for your LCD blackness/dimness it goes, your symptoms might be caused by water/dust/corrosion damages more likely rather than flashing a wrong firmware ! in s5830i which is very similar to your device, replacing IC light u 503 part will solve problems in most cases ( I am not so sure of IC part of your device). Be cautioned though disassembling your device is not for fainthearted, you need expertise to open such a delicate case; hence I can't ask for critical information such as measuring voltage IC . One more thing mate, for the future record could you kindly provide a link to firmware you did flash from sammobile.com database preferably. Your original CSC/MODEM/PDA , Android version/ Kernel is also needed .

@chikamtsu, Just looking to the pattern he has been posting in this section mate >> indeed typical spammer without proper knowledge/insight of what is really happening under the hood of our Android device
As for your problem, I have already explained all of the possible solutions in details ! ( you may check my comment here too )
P.s: Report his ass for disturbing peace ( Report button ),, Really this dude make assistance impossible by reviving old topics; and such an odd way to increase post count ,, he even quoted my comment ,, pretty Hilarious

Well if you can tell me that which rom you had flashed because some roms for Galaxe Ace after flashing need to press the Home button to avoid blacksceen.
Well your possibilities are to give your phone a usb jugg service/Heimdall and after that take it to download mode and flash back using odin.
Hello, ive got some Problems with my ne Xcover3
Because the builtin SAP Profile is not working with my cars telephone unit (Premium Volkswagen)
i want to use the app "android-rsap" but there is root needed.
No idea how to get it without bricking the phone.
So it would be very nice to get help by experienced peolpe like you
Thanks ahead
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. I can't find anything on XDA on how to root that specific device. but it looks like you can copy the latest SuperSU.zip to your phone and then flash it in recovery. Also see this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Thank you, but if i understand SuperSU right, the phone must be rooted first?
iam a bit confused
also i think the knox Trigger will be hit?
To use the SuperSU app you need to be rooted. The zip file you flash in recovery. I don't know if it'll trip knox but I'm guessing, yes.
ok i will life with that, so let me tell you my following Actions:
i download: UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46
put it to my sdcard and reboot in save mode (pressing 3 home on and volume up)
but what to to next? and is the device rooted after that?
sorry but iam not familar with android
I don't know your device and I can't find any information on XDA about it, but can you boot into recovery and find where it allows you to install a zip from the sdcard? You'd need to do that.
in the menü there is a Point:
"update from external device" i can navigate in the folders
but i can´t select the zip file (i put it to the root of the Card)
or should it be extracted?
thank you
Root (sm-g388f)
I would also like root rights on this unit ...
I've done over the recovery flash su version 1.8x but after the start I had the phone off third-party applications with the message "Safe Mode" and it could not be repaired other than by re-recording the original ROM
The question is jerstli version 2.46 or 2.49 beta version can handle it
I will be glad for the advice
... I am sorry for my bad English
i just started 2.46 now i see the andriod logo and downloading ....
do not disconnect usb cable
during the Software update
i think this is showing since 5 minutes nothing happens
do i have a brick now?
My own opinion ... I would have left it until the spawn either error messages or will Torch: D
EDIT: But let me know if you succeeded or not .. or what it's done
phone and Akku are quite warm
but no Change on the Screen
how Long should this Action usually take?
please reply from somebody who did such a update already?
i interupted the process
phone is starting, no root
and biggest Problem so far recovery menue not acessable
allways try to Flash die zipfile
but i allready removed it from the sdcard, so i think its in a Cache?
any idea how to fix that?
ok iam a bit stupid
power + home + vol up = recovery menu
power + home + vol down = flashing from external source?
so no Problem right now but no root
We're going to have to leave it to someone smarter ... or I do not know stim board ... I think you need to unlock the bootloader and perhaps ?? something ??
Hi guys. This thread has gone beyond the scope of XDA Assist so I'm going to ask that it be moved here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help Others with your device may see it and be able to help you
ok thank you, hope this will help
somebody sugested to install first twrp and with twrp it should be able to Flash the su.zip
but as my googleing tells me it must be a specific Version of twrp for the xcover 3 but nothing to find right now
any ideas
I'm not sure but maybe it was a flash from another phone with the same hardware but I do not understand. I calmly tried but we have to order the phone has the same or at least similar specifications
:cyclops:
you are right i think the last galaxy neo is quit similar
Do you mean this model? SAMSUNG GALAXY NEO i9060
Or send what you think
the Galaxy J1 4G nearly got the same specs , same board same cpu .. different ram and camera
but its also not rootable ;(
