Hi,
Anyone have the AT&T 1.6a firmware? I'm on a generic 2.1a and might want to downgrade back to the OEM firmware.
Thanks

It's part of the flash package. I tried to see if I could get back to 1.6, if needed.
It worked. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825201

Thanks for the fast answer. I've downloaded the x10a shipped 1.6 rom from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683793
I also downloaded the flasher. Extracted the flasher, then the rom overwriting some files. Got the device ID, put it into the txt file and then started the bat. Saw a series of commands and it said test end. However, now when I boot up the phone, I get a phone with a yellow exclamation mark. What did I do wrong?

This is the AT&T ROM:
CDA: 1237-3761
Decrypted ROM: X10a - AT&T R2CA016 - http://www.multiupload.com/TNDA6OG60U
I've had better luck with non-GIU flasher, make sure there is a loader.sin file in your firmware folder. My folder has 7 files (with).
EDIT: make sure you choose wipe user data

The 1st, 1 for X10 is jsut getting the right loader.sin. There should be a "loaders" folder in the root where you extracted the flash. If there is a loader.sin in your "firmware" folder, no problem. But it sounds like you do not. Follow the Flash2.1 thread to find where to get the loader.sin.
The 2nd tries to build a bat file to get your device ID, needs DevID folder. If the DeviceID.txt file in the base directory again should be OK.
Check for loader.sin
If loader.sin does not fix for you I will look into further.
If you got this far repair under PC Companion may work.
Sorry for long post, alternative is to tell you to read, not always helpful to new user.
Hi
Tried to update my galaxy 5 i5500 (europe) model with Cyanogenmod 7.1 but after the reboot the phone was stuck on the boot loop.
When i try to flash the orginal firmware from samfirware i only choose europa_v1.0.ops and then the tar file for my phone, i need to uncheck the one package first then check it again so the "one package" button is marked and ready to load the file if i don´t do it its grayed. I don´t load the files manually like the mds files who i read need to be loaded separate, like boot,phone,pda.
Just take the whole tar file and load it through one package button.
Then i press start and the phone starts to flash, after a while i got to the reboot screen when i should press on the phone reboot i cant move around here just press reboot i can do.
After that the phone boots up and i see the orginal starting logo for android 2.2 who was on it when i bought it but the phone still stucks on the android logo?!?
Anyone can help me whats wrong? tried to go down to android 2.1, still stuck on boot logo after reboot.
Odin alwAYS says big partition size but countinues anyway when i got to the first reboot menue when i should press the center button to accept reboot i see there is a error on f: who it says but maybe that dosent matter...
But then when its done i have the reset at 200sec the phone stucks on logo.
I have deleted everything on the sd card and tried again with flash with odon same result.
I can have the phone in download mode so that works anyway, but could anyone guess what could be the problem, tried different europe 2.2 versions no luck same logo , and all after the cyanogenmod who failed .
Is the phone bricked or do i do somthing other wrong here?
Same problem here
m also facing the same problem, im not liking cynogen mode for galaxy5. someone please tell me how to flash with froyo
Your phones are not bricked, but in order to get back from CM to stock firmware you will need first of all to upload this file using ODIN multiupload.com/OW3LQG8PZB
I really think this will help you in solving your issue. At least this tip worked more than once for me.

Finally no boot loop for me. i needed to manual load the files boot,phone,pda and so on with files.. not so easy to find them.
When i tried alot of "one file tar files" and choose one package as install way. boot loop was there everytime i think i got the mds files from a english android 2.2 version and then loaded every file manual and unchecked one package, boom then the phone started up again finally!
Can i now flash the phone with a one package file?
like the GT-I5500YKANEE "Sweden" because my phone is Swedish, or should i leave it with the english version on the phone?

===============
if you could tell me the downgrade procedure it would have been a great help for me.
m not a tech savvy
@ajesh
Sure, it's already been documented by CM7 developer right here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15290648#post15290648 All I have to add to psyke's explanation is that you will need to unarchive the .rar file (not the .tar itself) before uploading with Odin as Odin need a .tar file for one file upload and it can not read .rar files.
@dragonevo
Ja visst, you should be able to upload whatever firmware you want and if you ever get stuck again at boot screen after downgrading from CM to stock firmware, do not hesitate to follow the procedure with I5500-2.0.9-Downgrade.tar file.
If i want to try to flash it again i still need to fix clockwork first on the phone?
I cant flash the Cyanogenmod file direct by odin?

Everytime that you want to get back to CM you will have to install ClockworkMod first as you need its recovery in order to update firmware using a .zip file. Then if you are going back to stock firmware you will need to upload the Downgrade file via Odin so it could format your system partition with RFS file system.

Search Google for OW3LQG8PZB and then go to the homensdoamanha.com link (about the 3rd one down). Use Google Chrome to translate the page from Portuguese, or Google Translate if you don't have Chrome installed.
About 1/2 way down the comments there are some more links to possibly OW3LQG8PZB or equivalent files.
I've not used/downloaded the file myself as I just flashed my Europa with an older firmware to get it out of the boot loop, but you may not be prepared to try that.
The first link on the page for the ROM file (in Portuguese it says "Firmware: Clique aqui!") takes you to an advert page. Look in the top right corner and it will say "skip ad", and will then take you to the file on Rapidshare.
Sorry about the cryptic remarks about the file/link locations, but the forum is overly user-unfriendly to new registrants. There's quite a lot of good info on here, but it doesn't inspire me to contribute much... I wonder how many others have been put off too?!
Hope it helps you.

Same problem (almost!!)
A while ago something went wrong when flashing my phone to cyanogen mod 9. So when I booted up my phone it got stuck on the GT-i5500 logo. Now (after what seems ages of re-flashing and one click unbrick) it displays Phone---(!)----PC.
Is that good or bad?
Odin can't flash my phone either, it just gets stuck on setting up a connection or it just comes up with fail. One click unbrick doesn't work either.
HELP!!
It's a common situation. Just remove battery, restart winz if you already tried to flash once into this session, start Odin, put battery into the phone and connect it to the PC.
Usually for me it always worked this way.. the ! means that a flash process is been interruptes manually or maybe for unknown reasons (file corrupted? )

Did you install the right hotfix for your version? Every release has different hotfix!, and you have to install ONLY the last one available for your version.. so if psyke released hotfix-XXXXXXX_01 and hotfix-XXXXXX_02 you must install only the 02 ones..

Same problem, the screen blinks on boot
Hi,
I have a problem similar (or the same) as the one in the first post.
I have a Samsung Galaxy 5/Corby, I5500, the operator is TIM (Italy). I've rooted it, then installed MAD Manager, installed ClockWorkMOD and flashed the last version of CyanogenMod. It worked quite good, the only thing that didn't work was wireless tethering. However, it was very slow, because of the small RAM. So I decided to shrink the main SD partition and add a little SWAP, then enable the apposite option in the Advanced tab in Settings. But, after a reboot, it din't swapon the partition. So I enabled ADB and (throught Linux) opened a root shell and ran "swapon /dev/block/xxxxxx#p#". It worked. But I didn't want to open an adb shell or a terminal after every reboot to enable swap. I googled a bit, then read somewhere that a /system/etc/init.d script might have done the trick. So I made a little script with my PC:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 || echo "Unable to enable swap, please insert the SD card."
sysctl -w vm.swappiness=60;
then pushed it into /system/etc/init.d/83swapon
The filesystem is read-only

I remounted /system in rw, and tried again.
No space left on device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I removed Apollo, a media player included with the rom I downloaded, and tried again, getting again "no space...".
After a bit of hacking I decided to put the script into /data, then make it executable and make a symlink in init.d that points to it.
I didn't manage to remounte read-only /system, so I didn't remount it at all.
I rebooted the phone to check that it was working, but the screen started blinking. The only thing I was able to do was removing the battery then starting it in download mode by pressing Volume down, Center and Power.
I've made a video: youtu.be/SM7dXfCa4dI
I tried to flash the stock Samsung ROM using ODIN, but ODIN makes it reboot and blink again. I don't know what to do, the link in the fourth answer doesn't work... can someone reupload that file or suggest me a better solution?
Thanks
I wanted to post in the development section, but it requires 10 posts or more.Thing is, I flashed it and all, NSS reported OS was written succesfully, but it won't boot past the Nokia screen.I tried hard resetting but it doesn't vibrate, it shows up as a NAND flash device in NSS,windows also picks it up so I guess it's alive.Thing is, how do I reflash it to its Original FW and Hard Reset it, it's a T-Mobile UK branded one.

I used that Lumia 800 FullUnlock ROM.
Help is greatly appreciated, as this isn't my phone and I would have to pay 400 euros for a new one if this doesn't work.
try this:
- disconnect the phone from pc
- wait a minute or more
- keep pressing power button ~10 sec, then release it
- if it still doesn't powering, keep pressing vol up button, release it, then keep pressing power button.
mine is a tmobile uk, too. after the phone goes to OSBL mode, the only way to start phone normally, is through the method i described.
good luck!
I did that, still nothing, stuck on Nokia logo.The partitions are all shown, in NSS pro there are 1-8 partitions, in ubuntu there is sdc1-9.On which partition is the OS and on which is the bootloader?
lumia 800
you didnt flash the sdb3 partition you need to flash that in linux to get the phone to boot

do that and you will be sorted

Oh my god bro, If you can show me how to do that(I used NSS Pro in order to flash the OS), i'll gladly appreciate it.
Also does this apply for rainbowmod only or for every ROM?

pretty going off topic even on my own topic, but how do i boot the lumia into disk mode(mass storage) so i can send files via USB?Zune only allows videos/music/pics.
Hey guys,
I was reading allot of info on the web about windows phone and the amber update and stuff.. but never a solid release date.
so the amber update is going to be released in this august, and this info is coming from some guy in spain via twitter..
so we are not sure when this update is going to be released. (ok it hasj been released)
but i have recently installed the amber update like so many others, and the update is really good, adding allot of new features that anyone with a lumia should be able to enjoy.
since windowsmania.pl doesnt offer the roms anymore (and i dont speak polish) and the amber roms aren't available through Nokia Care Suite, it could be quite difficult to obtain the roms and the necessary files & info to install this update on your phone.
i put together a few steps that will help you install amber. (especially when you never did this before!)
also this is mostly for the europian users with a Lumia 920.
please note that i will not be responsible of your own action on flashing a phone!
like only start flashing with a full battery!!
and make backups before you start! your phone will be wiped clean!
(go to settings for backup options, wp8 can make all the backups you want!)
Downloading the right files & setting this up:
step 1.: download Nokia Care Suite --> also known as NCS --> get it from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?aww6lix9f0vuukd or http://d-h.st/IvF
after download install NCS.
(UPDATE: you can also update NCS itself by clicking updates in the NCS main menu.
by doing this it will also automatically install every necessary driver. so step 2 isnt really needed.. but you still need to do step 3 because it will give you acces to the update itself!!)
step 2.: download the drivers here: http://d-h.st/Mc3
install the files and reboot the pc after installing!
(includes 64bits drivers and 32bits drivers, if you don't know which one you should use, you can better stop reading from here )
step 3.: go to: C:\Program Files\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Product Support Tool For Store 5.0 and find the usergroupsconfiguration.cfg file.
replace it with this file: http://www.mediafire.com/?r0up8y7tyku1k11 or http://d-h.st/GFW
thanks for the config file go to Jragar
(it will give you acces to Care Suite External)
Step 4.: download the rom here:
part 1: http://d-h.st/JgP
part 2: http://d-h.st/2JG
part 3: http://d-h.st/h17
(its the RM821_3047.0000.1326.2002_RETAIL_eu_euro1_425_02_240539 with product code 059R4H6) thanks for the rom goes to: blakepender
Note: i used the rom on my Dutch Lumia 920 with code: 059R016. it still works like a charm and i still have product code 059R016. so i dont think it will change your product code. (but im not sure!)
drop all files from the .rar into: C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\rm-821.
if you dont have this folder yet. create it and then put all the files in there.
Identify the phone:
Step 5.: plug in your phone, while the phone is on, so your pc can detect it. After the phone has been found by your pc, start NCS.
double click on the "Product Support Tool for Store 5.0", it will promp you for username and password, just press sign in.
If all went well, NCS already found your phone and it will give some info about it. like that it will be running in normal mode.
Step 6.: In the Product Support Tool (PST) click on "File" --> "Open Product". A new window will appear. go to "RM-821" click open.
Step 7.: Now click on "programming" (Bottom left in PST) --> "recovery". After this click on "update list" the rom file should appear.
if not check if you put everything into the right folder. (step 4).
Start Flashing:
Step 8.: Click the start button once! it will give an error. This is good! (its because it has an different product code, but it will be fine)
please note that it can take a few minutes before PST gives a "recovery - failed" notification. please be patient. press ok after you get it.
Step 9.: Now unplug your phone, and power it off. Hit the Start button once again. PST will give an error that it can't find your phone.
It will show you the option how to start your Lumia 920 in flash mode.
Step 10.: Start your phone by pressing the power button + volume down button simultaneous. when the phone starts the vibrate. plug the phone back in to the pc, and press the "Retry" Button.
Give it a minute and it will start flashing your phone.
You know its going ok if you start seeing the nokia logo with a progress bar on the phone.
Please while the phone is flashing, dont touch anything.. if it gets disconnected somehow your phone can get bricked..
When the flashing is done it will reboot and it will start wp8 with amber.
Please keep in mind that it will take allot longer to boot the first time because it has to configure allot of things.
Your phone will start and ask you what language you want, just follow these steps, after this you will have the amber update up and running!
After a few hours to possibly 2 days (tnx Mikemikeson) with wifi it will give a notice that you will have like 10 or more updates pending. do this updates to get all amber features!
like sms + call blocking.
Hope these steps will help some folks that just cant wait to get Amber and didnt knew where to get the right files.
Good Luck!
p.s. this was done on a windows 7 pc and was confirmed working on windows 8.
Thank you
I flashed my unbranded Lumia 920 product code 059R075, with this one. I can confirm that this is perfectly done. No problems so long as you follow the instructions.

I honoustly don't know if it will work.
you can try i though. when you have PST running with your phone connected, you can look for the latest rom file available for your phone.
under "tools" click on "firmware download" type in your product code, which can be found under the basic info tab. it should show the latest available firmware for your phone.
it will be non-amber, but atleast you have something to turn back to if it doesnt work in the end..
so download this rom first before you start flashing and you should be able to try it out without any consequence.
otherwise check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44504258
its about putting amber on AT&T Lumia 920.
so good luck!

Fix missing languages
Instead of adding keyboard, simply change the system language and you will automatically get the desired keyboard. Your languages persist should you revert back to English or any other system locale.

Flashed this last night and it is working beautifully, I have noticed since installing this WhatsApp, Skype and Lync are pushing messages through much more efficiently and I have found my battery still has 40% charge after being used all day, usually by this time I would be at about 15%.
For other people that flash, check out this page here for all of the QR codes for the Nokia system apps.
Use the Bing Vision on each of these QR codes to force the updates down.
Thanks for providing the ROM and Instructions, much appreciated.

Thanks a lot mate Amber works like a charm!
if anyone can give me a hand, Click start > get initial error. Power off, hit start, get prompt to but it into flash mode, power on with down arrow and power button, hit retry get error
0xFA001304: Platform ID check fails. Reason(s): The FFU file is not meant for this product. The platform ID of image does not match with platform ID of the device.
on my ATT 820, I know it's a different device, just wondering for those few who got it working on the ATT variant, if there was something else I needed to do .
************ Edit ************
Well, I guess I never flashed it to portico, and I don't see a copy anywhere so I guess I'm waiting on the official 820 variant. But thanks
i have an unlocked 920 (i think it is RM-820)... will this flashing method work for mine as well?

you can check with NCS to make sure if its really a rm-820. just look for basic info in PST.
also it should work but it will change it to rm-821. and im not sure what that will do for your provider. Probably nothing.
maybe if you check the lumia 920 dev section on this site, i know there is a topic about changing from rm-820 to rm-821.
im on a holiday in greece on a tablet so i cant search for link now. good luck and i hope you wil have amber soon!

i flashed it nevertheless! Mine was RM-820... changed to RM-821... took a day for the update to appear.... works perfectly... i do notice a slight decrease in battery life.... plus my heating issue (top corner heating when using any app) has NOT been resolved
however great guide man. the flashing worked!
Side question: Is Lumia 920 section officially dead?
So now i'm on WP8.1 looking forward to update to 10, whatever it is. Insider preview, technical, whatever, I just need to. But all fast ring, slow ring, all are not working. Everytime I select one, it force me to reboot in 10s, then REPEAT for eternity. No update in update setting.
I don't know if the lumia 920 section is dead or not. But I do know that Microsoft has ceased support for the lumia 920 concerning windows 10 update. SO you cant update it anymore via insider etc etc. --> But still the last preview version was really buggy so consider yourself lucky.
If you really want to try/update to windows 10 then look at the XDA lumia 920 main page (see button somewhere above this site. Are we allowed to post links in this forum???).
I've used these steps to update my lumia 920 to windows 10 and it really works. However you need to know that Windows 10 on the lumia 920 isn't perfect.

Appreciate your input. I tried. That tutorial was to sideload app and tweak and stuff. But i'm still on 8.1 and unable to do so IDK why. Everytime I sideload that app I get run time error. Please check capabilities etc.
Right now I am trying to revert back further to oldest 8.1 (before small patch OTA) to see if I can re-try that trick again.
I got a new phone. And giving this one to my sister. Facebook doesnt work very well (news feed skipping problem) so I try to upgrade to WP10 to get a new FB app for her.
Edit: Wait, I take that back. I checked general wp section. Not L920. So I need to check it again to make sure. Thanks.

Well I don't really know what you meant with side loading. When you look at the lumia section onder development you'll see a link with the Title:
[ROM][DHT v0.1]Windows 10 v10586 ROM for Nokia Lumia 920 (RM-821) posted by ngame within this board I've also done some tests and I've given some info.
I essence you're going to put a windows 10 OS from a different device onto a lumia 920 I thin k it came from the 950. So putting a custom rom on the 920.

Yeah, I just saw that. Couldn't find a clear tutorial on how to do this. Now i'm on stock 8.1. Do you have a link for complete tutorial that includes link to every necessary components in English?
I could do that, however I first have to know 1 thing. are you using RM820 or RM 821 or etc? BEcause the faq is based on a RM821.

RM821. Would fit perfectly
Oke well, if you want I can make a Faq based on my experience resulting in a working lumia 920 with an official windows 10 os.
However please note that If something were to fail or if the device were to brick (wich you can just unbrick see the lumia 920 board) I will not be responsible for any of it.

Don't worry mate. I messed around with mobile software since Symbian-day. I've been off for only 2-3 years.
Oke well I'm at work right now so I'll type something tonight (fyi. I live in the Netherlands).

Anytime, mate.
First you need to download the following files:
- Hex_loader
- SBL3_Engineering
- WindowsDeviceRecoveryToolInstaller
-------> - http://nokiaviews.com/unlock-windows-phone-bootloader-and-enable-mass-storage.html
- EFIESP & Custom Rom File
-------> - https://www.mediafire.com/folder/nd6yd9pzbld7v/DHT_L920
- Malaysian FFU file RM821 you need this one because, apparently,
the Malaysian firmware uses a different storage partitioning, which is necessary for windows 10.
Yes it is possible to reformat the drive with windowsitnernals, however most people on the board and from experience can tell you that it won't work.
When you flash the ISO it will say that the ISO is too BIG.
-------> - http://www.lumiafirmware.com/guid/059R024
- WPinternals 1.2
-------> - http://www.wpinternals.net/index.php/126-wpinternals-1-2-released
Now First organize:
Extract the zip/rar files to a folder and make it clear so that you can find it again:
I don't know if certain steps are or aren't necessary but I'll include them since
I've done them in order to make it work.
It is recommended to HARD reset first before doing this.
First: you need to install WindowsDeviceRecoveryToolInstaller,
1 to recover the phone and
2 it will install the right driveres on your pc. Atleast I was told to do this (you just have to install it that's it).
Second: Start WPInternals:
1 you need to bootload your device using the following files, HEX, ENGINEER etc the first 3 files above.
2 you need to change your current device firmware to the Malaysian ROM. --->PLATFORM--> FLASH--> Flash ORIGINAL FFU.
3 it will take some time and it will need a reboot
4 After that go to load iso and use the files--> WPInternals go to the -> Platform -> Flash -> Flash Separate partition and select the MainOS partition.
Third: when it is done:
1 Your device MAY show the following glitches:
-Stops at nokia screen,
-stops at windows screen,
-stops at the boot screen,
-it will boot to the start screen but you wont see any tiles,
-it will boot to the start but you can't use the touchscreen,
-it will boot to the start with touchscreen but you wont be able to swipe beyond the start screen.
2 To solve this you need to do a hard reset so if possible turn off your device.
Then coneect your device to a charger while holding down. When you see a exclamation point ! you need to let go and press the following up-down-power-down. It will then do a hard reset.
If you are unable to turn the device off then do the following--> perform a soft reset bij holding power and down. When it restarts quickly connect the charger and hold down. If you're to slow it will boot up and you need to do it again. But you'll have enough time to do this.
After restart it should work.
Good luck.

I would like to add that after everything you can just update the phone without problems. It will detect an update automaticaly
Will keep you posted. Thanks for the tutorial.

IDK why people love mediafire so much. I don't remember the last time that I managed to download big file through that website. And DepositFiles.
No matter at what internet speed i have. No matter how fast I can download from other websites. I just can't get more than 30kbps from that 2 websites. I just can't.
Edit: Worse thing is ffu file download can't be resumed. Everytime my stupid internet disconnect for 3s for absolute no reason, the download restarts.
Well sorry but that's where I've downloaded the files. Maybe click download and just wait...

BRAH...
Hard reset was up-down-power-down.
You have the opposite. My phone was stuck for 2hours, BRAH. 2 hours.
So sorry for that it was late and I was tired.
But did you get it to work?

Can confirm everything is fine. Thanks so much, mate. This is very very helpful.
Happy to hear that everything is working. Really sorry messing up the hard reset combination.
