Hi
Started program - found SX56. Message "Upgrading - will take about 5 minutes"
on pda. Then it said that it had a problem with the USB or COM connection, and
to fix it in device manager. I opened Device Manager, and checked that all the
USB and COM ports were enabled, which they were.
By this time, the unlock software and ActiveSync had stopped running. The pda
was still stuck on the "Upgrading - will take about 5 minutes" screen. Since
the configuration has changed, ActiveSync will no longer recognize the device,
and will not sync with it. Your software will not connect until ActiveSync does.
All that comes up is the "Upgrading - will take about 5 minutes" screen. there
is no other functionality to the system.Hard or soft resets make no difference.
Active Sync doesn't work. The PDA has changed its configuration, so active
Sync doesn't recognize it. When I plug it in, Active Sync sees something, but
can't even tell that it is a pda, and I can't even set up a new connection with
it. let alone use the old connection.
Can anyone help? is there a way i can reinstall active sync or is there another way to fix it? please help
You will need xdatools, sd card, card reader/writer and rom file from kitchen for sd card flashing. Unzip the rom after download, start xdatools on your pc, choose the unzipped rom file as source and the drive letter for your sd card as destination from drop down menu, once the card is programmed insert sd card to phone, push reset while holding power, when prompted you then push the action key which is centre of 4 way rocker buttons. Once flashed push the unscrewed stylus into hole next to headphone socket, push once only, wait one minute push once more, this will work as long as you dont have a problematic version of bootloader on your phone. Good luck.
System is entirely backed up onto SD card.Can't use SD card. Can't use PDA.
PDA is still stuck on "ugrading - will take about 5 minutes". It apparently has
no operating system in ROM. No difference with hard or soft reset - comes back
to same screen, no function in PDA.
HELP PLEASE
I think you misunderstood, a normal backup is no good, you need to program an sd card with a new rom, when this is placed in your xda and soft reset it should reprogram your phone with a new rom. You are correct when you say it has no rom, the method I described should restore your phone to a working machine. You do not need a rom to reprogram using bootloader/sd card method, try it and see.

Okay, so can I basically use the newest ROM which also unlock the device too?
You will need to use either xda developers special edition rom to unlock or include the unlock program from the kitchen in a 2002 rom, you can then upgrade to wm2003 if you wish, you cannot unlock under wm2003 so you must use special edition or kitchen rom based on 2002 first.
I am sorry if i keep asking you questions.
I do have the xda special rom, ive tryed using it but it caused the problem i do have right now.
i did download xdatools by jeff. i cannot run them though.
Could you describe step by stef of what i need to do.
i.e. do i need a complete NEW ROM, or can i just transfer the xda special rom to my SD card and then run it to restore my device?
But i guess not, else you wouldnt have explained what i need to do.
Thats the error i get when i try to run xdatools. (I dont understand the install note)
"INSTALLATION
From the source + exe distribution copy OsImageTool.exe and itsutils.dll
to the programme A directory as created by unpacking
jeff's-exe (http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/) to a directory in
your "Program Files" directory. Then run 'OsImageTool --register'."
IF you unzip the files you already have both of those files in the folder.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
You have to install ActiveSync.
You can get it diretcly from Microsoft for free....

. I was able to locate the NK.nbf file. I ran the XDA OS image tool, to put the OS on the sd card, from the NK file. That apparently succeeded, but it is hard to tell. After loading the OS, when I take out the sd card, then put the sd card back into the sd card reader, it can no longer read the sd card. I can format the sd card again, using my camera, so the sd card is not destroyed.
Wher I put the sd card in the SX56, there is no problem, but there is no success.
Pushing soft reset alone does nothing. Pushing the power button alone does not turn the machine on or off, and does nothing.
Pushing power and soft reset at the same time, gets me the “Wallaby Bootloader V5.15” screen. It first says “wait”, and then says “GSM OK”. It then does nothing else, and doesn’t prompt me to do anything else. If I push the action button, I get “DIAGNOSTICS GPRSA 20324e4”. From there, I can scroll up and down, and test the RAM, Display, battery, USB, etc – all items tested seem OK. There is nowhere to go from here – all it does is test the pieces.
After that, if I push the hard reset (the one that disconnects the battery), the power goes off, and the screen is dark. This is the only way to turn the machine off at the moment. If I push hard reset again, it comes up with a screen full of lines, with two blank holes in it (see attached file). From there, none of the buttons do anything, except hard reset (which turns the machine off again), or soft reset + power, which brings up the bootloader screen again.
have the siemens ROM. It will not work with the cradle, because it cannot find the pda if Activesync can’t make a connection, and loading it onto the SD card does nothing new – both results are exactly the same as with what described above.
any suggestions?
Hello everyone,
My aunt gave me a chinese smartphone (n9000 i9220 pad) with the lcd screen broken.
I tried to control it from my pc with this software ([email protected]). It NEEDS USB debugging to be activated in order to work. Since my aunt obviously didn't have it activated, I could only see the smartphone's screen when I entered to recovery (Where i think debugging it's activated by default). So I need to activate the USB debugging option with no image from the smartphone. To archieve this, I found a solution that consists in editing manually a file on /system, but since it's not rooted, I don't have write permissions on /system.
I'm not gonna die if I can't do this, but I want to know if it's really possible.
More info:
Exact model: e1809l_v75_gq1008_ov5647_v20
*I can access the smartphone with adb, so If anyone needs more info that I could retrieve from it, just tell me.
Hey there,
Recently my Galaxy S3 fell to the floor and the display broke. Now I'm desperatly trying to recover all of my data from the internal phone memory. The memory has 16gb in total, but when i copied it to my hard disk drive i could only copy 2gb. It seems that the camera folder (DCIM) is the only folder taht has been completely restored. Is it possible that all other folders are pin locked? Or is it more likely that the storage is broken? Anyway, what i really need to recover is the phone calendar, since not all entries had been synced with google calendar. I can't find ANY calendar file on the internal storage, and i've searched most common places (data/data/android.provider.calendar etc.). My research showed taht the only way to access the phone with recovery apps is when the debug mode has been activated. Since the display is broken there's no way for me to activate it.
In short, my questions:
- Why can I see only some of the internal storage? (2/16GB) -> broken or locked?
- do you have any idea how i can restore the phone calendar since there doesn't seem to be any calendar file?
- is there a way to activate the Debug mode with a broken screen?
I consider buying a new display just to be able to access the files. But since i don't want to waste any money i need to be 100% sure that this works. But the fact that i've only been able to copy 2GB from the internal storage and that i dont seem to find the calendar files makes me doubt that this will help at all.
additional info: I'm accessing the phone via USB cable without a sim card.
Thanks for any help.
Edit:
I also tried connecting the phone to Kies (i never used Kies before) by activating the "download mode" on the phone by pressing some buttons at the same time when turning the phone on. Kies seems to recognize something but it just keeps on saying "connecting to phone..." for hours. I take this as another indication that the phone might be broken beyond the display.
Edit2:
I found this:
inaccessible folders: folders you won't see due to lacking permissions, e.g. those in /data. To protect your apps' data, those folders belong to the corresponding application, and are only accessible by the app (in the context of file-permissions; please see the tag's wiki for closer information on those). To make those visible, you need root access on your device, and a file explorer supporting that (e.g. ES File Explorer)

Is there any way i can get root access to the phone with a broken display?
(Sorry if I'm noobing but I'm really pissed at lack of USB storage mode right now)
Okay, so my sister took a really important photo (with some celebrity or something) w/ my phone and later accidentally removed it. I spent entire day trying to figure out how to get it back, but because of lack of USB mass storage mode in my Sony XPERIA P I can't just use a normal Windows file recovery tool like Recuva. The only tool I found that supports MTP mode is some tool called "Dr.Fone". I downloaded its trial, scanned the phone, found the photo (uncorrupted! ) and found out that to recover files you have to pay almost $30 (90 bucks where I live). Obviously I won't pay that much to get one photo of my sister with a dude with a weird moustache!
Does anyone know any tools that could help me? Hopefully windows-based, because I'm paranoid to install anything on phone in fear of corrupting the file. (Why did they have to remove that mode? >_<)
EDIT: My more android-savvy friend helped me. I don't know how he did it but eh, whatever.
Hello. I got an interesting problem happening with my Huawei P9 EVA09 I believe the EVA is.
Anyways a few months back I was attempting to get the Android Update off of Huawei's web site for my phone. During the steps, I either missed the note or it was never mentioned, to put the DLoad Folder and ZIP stuff on the SD Card and I copied the files onto the Internal Drive Instead.
Now whether I downloaded the wrong file or I was linked to the wrong file, my phone failed the Flash/Update about like 10-25% saying it was not compatible or wrong version (again, we're going a few months back in memory here)
I learned that rather than cancelling the process and going back to the regular Android, it just screwed the whole phone up and is stuck in an infinite boot loop.
Huawei's Desktop app you connect with the phone won't help
Recovering by downloading the latest version via WiFi on the P9 Fails to get the Package Info, so that's out of the question.
Wipe Data and Factory Reset fails at 0% with an exclamation mark in less than a second.
I also spent days searching the net for solutions but every search just brings up the same solution:
Get the correct DLoad/ZIP for the model, copy it to the SD, then boot the phone with the key presses that start the flashing process.... Problem solved.
But it's not because every time I do this, my phone finds the one on the internal storage and loads that before going for the one on the SD Card, and I have no idea how to gain access to the internal drive to remove the DLoad folder to fix my phone.
I have been primarily a Windows Mobile user for the last number of years, but my 950XL has been giving me problems with my SIM card flaking out every so often, requiring a reboot. I got the P9 essentially for free when I upgraded my plan with Vodafone Aus. So my experience with Android and these sorts of messes is limited.
I'm used to fixing and figuring out Windows Issues since Windows 3.11.... But this issue with my P9 has got me stumped. After searching online on and off for the last few months, I figured this is my last hope to ask the experts here and hopefully find a solution.
I got the right Flash/ROM/Recovery for my P9 all ready to go and load from the SD, followed videos, got it all sorted.... I just can't get it to work with the other files stuck on the Internal Drive and I need access to delete the folder.
But I'm in a Boot Loop.
By the way, it's a Locked P9 from Vodafone Australia.
Any assistance will be appreciated greatly. It's a nice phone, but it was two Android Versions Out Dated and I didn't think the Files from Huawei's site would have messed it up so badly. If this is fixed, I'll leave it at the original version until I need to replace the P9. Sucks, but I would rather that than a bricked device.
I'm back on my 950XL for now and was going fine so I put this problem on the back burner. But now the SIM card is messing up in the 950XL, requiring a restart every day or two. So now I need to try and fix the P9.
Thanks in Advance.
TL;DR
I need to gain access to the Internal Drive of a Locked P9 while stuck in a Boot Loop so I can delete the DLoad Folder located on the Internal Drive.
