When I turn on my phone using JUST the power button, it vibrates, and that's it. The screen doesn't turn, nor do any lights.
When I turn on the phone using the BL Screen (rainbow, POWER+Comm+Camera), it shows me:
TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40 Olipro
CLPD-9
Then, when I plug it to my computer, it reads the device, and tells me its "WM 6.1.6965".
I want to be able to turn on my phone and let the OS boot normally, but nothing seems to work! I've tried flashing different ROMs and Radios, but they all seems to have either an "Image Error" or "They cannot find a device" on my computer.
I want to be able to use my phone, but I have no idea where to start. How did it get to this state?
I'm not sure.
PLEASE HELP ME. Much appreciated.
have you tried the sd card method. Where you rename the rom in the update called RUU_signed.nbh to TITAIMG.nbh and place it on the root of the sd card ( a fat 32 formatted non sdhc card) any small one will do as long as its big enough to hold the rom normally about 70-100mb so a 128mb or bigger card should work but nothing over 2gb card wise. All you do is put the file that you renamed onto the micro sd card then go into the boot loader screen of your phone via power+camera+reset it will briefly say serial then go to a screen prompting you to update follow what buttons to push to do the update via the on screen prompts, once done it will say update complete. It has been my best experience to take the battery out for 20-30sec when this screen comes up then replace the battery and boot via the power button. Hope this helps.
Oh I could have flamed you for not searching and provided you a link to one of the many forums on here already about the titan (ppc6800) but sometimes its just as easy to take 2 min to post what works as it is to digg up the proper forum via search results.
Thanks for the info.
However, I have searched the forums, and everyone seems to have a happy go lucky time when it comes to flashing, which would mean...that I'M not.
Nevertheless, I have tried the SD Card method, with the proper card (1 gig, FAT32, 1024), and when I put it in the Phone, it says "Loading...", then "NO IMAGE FILE!"
I don't know what's up with that. I've tried different custom and official ROMs, and each time I get that message.
put the USB earphone/ USB power plug into the phone and push the reset button
not to make you sound dumb but make sure that you put the RUU_signed.nbh file on there from the downloaded rom or official rom via looking @ the exe with winrar or similar software ... then rename it to TITAIMG.nbh and place on the card... i had similar problems but got past them via doing a full format of the sd card with these selected options 4kb sectors and fat 32 for the format and un-checking quick format once formatted that way the boot loader saw the image and i was able to flash.
I reformatted using the suggested parameters, and even so, it said "No Image File!"
I did rename the RUU.nbh file to TITAIMG.nbh, and even then.
That's why this is so frustrating for me. It makes no sense that this doesn't work.
Thanks.
i guess you need to search the forums for the program that un-bricks your phone seems that something is wrong and part of the phone is not working, however sense the computer sees the device you should be able to run one of the programs to bring it back.
on a side not try if you have one available another sd card some don't like to work with the boot loader but will still work fine with the phone as an sd card.
The file is on the card base directory and not in a folder right? If you place it in a folder it will not see it. I had to do the SD flash on my XV6800 because I screwed it up by not loading the Radio first.
I searched the forums, and didn't see an easy to follow answer to my question.
I just got one of the woot tablets, so I've only had it a few days. It is stock, but I did temp root it so I could apply the market fix. Everything was working fine for a couple of days, but this morning when I turned it on, it seemed to be in a boot loop (the Tap N Tap screen kept cycling until it shut itself off).
Will I need a micro sd card to recover? I saw some threads that talked about connecting to a computer and transferring a file to the internal drive, but my computer isn't recognizing the internal drive on my g-tab. I can only see it when the G-tab is booted up, and I turn on the USB transfer from the G-tab.
If there is already a thread with easy to follow instructions could someone point me in the right direction?
BTW, I have already tried the vol+ and power button, I get the message that says recovery key detected, and then the box in the center of the screen. but then it continues into a boot loop.
Thanks for your help.

You probably need to do the NVFlash to stock ROM.
Well.. I'll throw my idea out there.
I think you may need to re-partition the SD card.
Apparently this happens to all of them at some point, and in fact it did happen to mine.
The device comes rooted, so you aren't rooting or unrooting in any of this. Its already rooted.
Go here: (the clockwork guide)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
You'll want to download the cwmod_microsd from the first post, then extract the zip to the root of a micro sd card. Put the microSD card into the tab, then boot using the Vol+ and power. You will get the message that a recovery key was pressed then its going to automatically install clockworkmod recovery.
I dont recall if it finished booting at that point or shuts itself down. Regardless you'll still be in your bootloop so start it back up again using the vol+ and power key again.
This time you'll be greeted with clockwork recovery.
Once in the menu, you can go to Advanced and mount the sd card. Copy any files off of it that you may need to your computer, the next step will erase the internal SD card.
If nothing is needed, ignore this step.
**I repeat, the internal SD card will be wiped here.
From within clockwork mod recovery go to Advanced->Partition SD card. Choose 2048 for the first option and 0 for the swap.
Go back to the main clockwork screen and choose to restart device.
Cross your fingers that you boot up without a loop.
I'm doing this from memory, so if my verbage is a little off my bad. But you should see what I'm talking about.
Thank you... So I guess I need to go out and buy a micro sd card. Any size/class recomendations?
Depends.. Do you want it to get it back up and running.. 1gb or less.
Or do you want to also increase the storage of the device.. 4-32gb recommended.
If you just wanna get rolling again then get whatever the cheapest one available is.
If you're going to continue to use it, try and get a class 4 card or better, it will help with bigger file transfers.
LisaBham,
Yes, you probably will need a microSD card and it's good to get one that comes with an adapter so it fits in a SD slot to read/write. Also, if your computer does not have
a built-in reader that reads micro- or SD cards, you might need an adapter to USB.
Main thing is that you have two options, it looks like to me:
1. If you have a microSD card, you can make a CWM Recovery card out of it. Then
you can possible load CWM and get it to work even though you at looping (and BTW,
that's not your fault -- G-Tabs just do that one in a while.):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020747
If you can get CWM loaded and up, go to Advanced and run the Partition (2048 and 0)
option and the Fix Permissions Option and the Wipe Dalvik Cache option. Then go back to the Main Menu and run the Wipe Cache and Wipe/Reset Factory Data.
The shut down, boot and see if the G-Tablet will come up and work.
2. If one doesn't fix the looping problem, then you will need to continue and nvflash
back to a fresh, stock copy of the os.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950
If you follow this thread all the way through, it installs a copy of bekit 1105 which is stock version 2638. Assuming that boots and runs, the when you hook up the wifi
connection it shortly will offer you an OTA (over the air) upgrade to 3588. Then
you are back to where you can do what you want to.
Hope this helps.

Alright I was rooting my tablet, i forgot to check which version my tablet was so i rooted with the wrong root file..
When i boot up, i get passed everything to the main screen but the actual system is all messed up, i cant see a thing. My friend hard reset it threw the options you can get to threw holding power and down volume.
I was told i need to put the stock 3.1 file back on, problem with this is, my SD card on my tablet isn't formatted, so it's not showing up on my laptop as a storage device.
I can access both menus threw power + sound down, but other than that, that's all i can do atm.
Also when i choose anything from the SD card in the recover options, i just get /sdcard/ cannot be found or something.
I have the default boot, i just need to get the default OS on it...
So here is the thing... I have tried most of the SD cards options (including ubuntu one) and I can't seem to get it to do other than this loop style error, which ends with an exclamation mark and contact support.
Any ideas?
Quick update.
So after fiddling around with it, I found out that it will boot to sd card if hooked up to the pc. It will load CWM buy I don't know what else I can do from there. And it will also boot the repart.img.
The problem is that with the img one, it will get to the green check mark point, and when I remove the card to reboot the nook, it will go back to the exclamation card and please contact support.
Might as well give up?

HI
I have a nook tablet. I had an android card in it also. Last week on a trip I had used it fine and one day I turned it on and now it is stuck in the window Barnes and Nobles nook. I took android card out and tried factory reset, took it to the store and also called in about it and nothing makes it want to get past that window. I also checked my android card and that got deleted somehow. How do I get this back running to the nook mode or even and android mode so I can run both nook and kindle books on it. I am pretty good and doing computer things but don't make it to complicated. I am 68. Thanks for any help because I like using this thing even though I have a 10 inch tablet

I'd suggest you burn a pre-made CM10.2 SDcard image from http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013...id-4-3-for-nook-tablet-imgsdc-boot-09aug2013/ (see section under heading "sdcard images") -- it's basically a superb yet free version of the android card you had bought.
Boot this SD image from power-off state and by inserting a powered USB cable; if you succeed in booting and running this image off SDcard then your hardware is still functional and you can proceed to restoring your internal ROM (see last section of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48612997&postcount=1).
