I need help with reicast for android - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
I hope that iam posting in the right place ...
I have serious problems running reicast on my HTC m8 , it keeps asking me to place bios.bin and flash.bin in /data subfolder, I place them there, and then it asks me to place them in /data/data , I do it again it says bios not found and it becomes /data/data/data !!!
I need some help please, because the few times it got convinced that the bios was there in the folder, it just exits the software not starting neither the rom nor the bios even !!!
any help ?

XDA I - OSImageTool Version 1

Tried to make a copy of my ROM to SD Card. Dialog Box shows it copying but after completing in 6mins or so nothing shows on the card. I want to back up prior to copying XDA ROM and unlocking. Any advice would be appreciated.
well
you dont really need to save it on your sd card. You can just back it up in a file on your pc. click the browse button beside the combo box(ie the button with 3 dots) and select a name and a path. it would transfer the os to your pc and u can keep the back up there where its safer. :wink:
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I've already tried that and I just get an error message - Unsupported target filetype - don't know how to write destinationfile c:\Program Files\etc...
well
okay this is what you'll do :: put this line in the destination "c:\rom\os.nb1"; for the source select the combo box then select from device and it should work. if it doesnt then reply me asap. :roll:
Thanks again but unfortunately entering c:\rom\os.nb1 in the destination dialog didn't work. It returned: error opening c:\rom\os.nb1 for writing. The system cannot find the path specified. error opening target device.
Well
PS. Should also add I didn't quite understand your reference to "for the source select the combo box then select from device and it should work. if it doesnt then reply me asap

check the image i just sent u. ull see what i asked you to click for the source.(Device Memory (current rom))
then for the destination clikc the 3 dots on its side and type in a name eg os.nb1 and lcick open. :!: :?:
Cool
Thanks, man. It looks like that's done the trick. It's currently copying. Once that's done I believe I need to load the XDA ROM to facilitate the unlock. Many thanks for your help.
David
no probs men. but i need to unlock some 2 more phones an am having a hell of a time. my bros samsung e700 and my dads hp6315. do u by any chance know how i can get that done
I wish I could reciprocate but unfortunately I don't know much about my Wallaby let alone those you've mentioned. I've just downloaded the XDA ROM and my device is not accepting it. Reading stuff on the forum to try to figure out what the problem is. Don't want to take away from your other problems with the Samsung and HP but let me know if you've heard of any problems as to why a device won't accept the XDA ROM. I'm probably doing something wrong.
Cheers for now.
okay i see you really do not know much. now all you have to do is get the special edition rom u get. then use the same program u used to backup your rom to upload the new one. i really want you to be 100% sure you have a back up. then duplicate the back up for safety reasons. Then extract the speacial edition rom. if its just the rom u got the use the program to do it. if its the whole installation u got a progamm called PROGRAMME A should open and it will guide you throught. Then i hope your phone is a wallaby/qtek 1010/ o2 xda/tmobile MDA they are all the same. else your better stop now. then why dont you lets chat i think it had be easier. yahoo ::nowoxi or msn ::[email protected]
Unfortunately, I haven't IM loaded currently. However, what you told me is a big help. I do have the MDA version of the phone so I'll try that when I get back as I have to leave right now. Thanks again and I'll keep you posted as to how it works out.
Hi nowoxi,
got a problem with OSImageTool, I did my own ROM copy but now how can I upload it to my device in case of need(mine is 2020..)? Do I need a SD card or I can do it directly from the xda image program? Many thanks
P.S. if you find a Yahoo mess request,well...it's me!
Didnt really get your compostition. I dont know where to start from or what to think. I know you have a problem and i know its with the ostool but i really dont get (understand) what your problem is. The rom u said u have. is it one you cooked up or the one on your phone before. then wher edo u wanna send stuff to. your phone or you wanna backup the one on your phone :?:
Sorry for the confusion, here's the story.
I'm the owner of an Orange SPV m1000, I received it last week and don't know much about PocketPC....my device is an English version, I'd like to convert it to an Italian one. I found an ITA ROM (it's for Qtek 2020 but it should work..) and soon I'd like to try to flash it. In case of need (maybe something wrong in the flashing...) I'd like to keep a copy of the original ROM installed in my device so I used XDAtools to get one, as you explained in this thread. Now I have this .nb1 file in my pc and the question is: can I upload it from my pc directly in case something goes wrong during the upgrade flashing? Or should I copy the .nb1 file to the SD card first and then try to flash from it ( but in what way?) ? Hope to made it clear now, thanks to your help!
P.S. Still looking the forum for a guide on using the imagetool....please be patient :wink:
Well you can restore it directly from your pc. just follow the steps in the thread. for source instead of selecting something in the combo box. click the 3 dots at the side then use your phone as destination. i hope that helps you out.
Sure thing!
Just one more question: what happen after I have finished upload the .bf1 file to my device with imagetools? It's a kind of autostart procedure or do I have to make some move? Thanks again, bye from Italy
nowoxi
I'm back and about to try to load the XDA ROM based on your instructions. However, question: do I have to removed the existing ROM from my device or will the XDA ROM simply overwrite it?
Hope you're around this Sunday evening/Monday morning!
Cheers
The rom will be overwritten.

It's right there in VERY FIRST POST in the thread indicated to you! I will be surprised and shocked if you couldn't find it!!
However, in case you really struggled, here is the WHOLE bit copied and pasted from that thread's first post.
Now to run Android properly in your phone !
1.Download any of the builds we have around here.
2.Do backup on your sdcard or if you have additional one use this one.
3.Extract the file with android in your sdcard.
4. Check all the files are inside (sdcard/Android/AndroidApps"folder", media"folder",root"folder",clrcad"file",rootfs"fil e",startup"file",system"file",zImage"file",init rd" file")
5. If you want you can take everything from Android folder and pest it in root of the sdcard but you have to change default text (set cmdline"rel_path=Android change to set cmdline"rel_path=" or set cmdline"rel_path=sdcard") tri with one if is not working try with the other one. I thing the best is leave all files and folder in default Android folder and just copy this folder to your sdcard.
6.Check your zImage and Startup is for Toshidroid :OP (TG01).
7.First RUN haret without CLRCAD.
8.It take no more than10 min to run for the first time.
9. If it take more time RESTART the phone by pressing the POWER BUTTON for 10/20 sec it will restart and back to windows.
11.Try to do the same one more time.
12.If it still not booting to Android and you receive any error messages. Check your sdcard if there is space left in it. Check error message if it say that it can find some file or it can't create a data.
13. Delete everything from your sdcard and format it to fat32.
14.Start from the beginning.
15. If it still not booting to Android then check if you have all files and all set how it has to be.
16. Don't forget you can broke your phone. And we are not responsible for any damage you cause to your phone.
17.It is all up to you.
19. If I forget something sorry about just ask there are other memebers who will try to help you if they can.
20. Sorry for my English mistakes. I'm trying to fix them. :OP
Thanks to all people who try their best to make that possible: Markinus, Arash18k,Bally3,Endrix,Nyl,Arnookie and all other.
Please don't feel bad or offended by any of our posts, but I think the response to you was correct at beginning and we all at XDA do appreciate that the number of threads are kept to minimum and you follow the rule of 'Search before asking' as this keeps it easy for moderators as well as other new members or current members to find something they are looking for in a single thread rather than 10 different threads! Imagine if every new member started opening a new thread!
when it is finished you can put in the NAND as the HD2?

plsss anyone who cud just give a couple of min and tel me the full produre to get andriod rom.pls reply
Firstly, thanks for putting so much information about your phone.
All you need to do is go to the Android ROM section for the HD2 on here and select an ROM you like the look of. The chef of the ROM gives instructions on how to get Adnroid running.
You are not flashing Android to your phone, but actually running it from the SD Card. You download the files into a folder called Android in the root of the SD Card. Then you run two files in this folder. WinMo will shut down and reboot into Android (this initial boot will take about 20 minutes).
There is also an app in that section which gives you the option to switch between operating systems at bootup - this is installed in WinMo.
The only problem I have found is the first boot back to WinMo is that the time and date was totaly wrong. That problem disapeared the next time.
I won't recomend which ROM to use, as I haven't used Android that much and what I might like you may not.
thnxs for replyng but just tel me as there r too mny options ..i just need help tht wht rom wil b suitble for mine as it says tht u have 2 hve rom 10.6 or 201. sumthng like tht..
n i think i cudnt find tht andriod section for hd2..cus u give me a link plss
The only real requirement is to have a RADIO 2.8.50 or above (of the .50 type) - which you already have on your phone.
* HERE * is the one I used. I downloaded '512MB data.img' and 'DOWNLOAD v. 4.6'. I unzipped them and placed the files in 'Android' in the root of the SD Card. Used file explorer on the phone to run "CLRCAD.exe" then "haret.exe". The phone then booted into android. It looks good and runs well, although I haven't fully tested it. If you want to replace it with another, then simply replace the Android Folder.
I'm not giving you answers but i wanted to advise you :
When you use correct grammer and spelling, Good English, you will get more attention and more people will answer your question
yes thnk u soo much it wrkd but battry drains very fast..and why does it goes bck to htc sense after everytime its off.....do i need to run haret al the time after i switch it on?? arnt there any method where i can let it be on andriod ..??

your android system will remain the same, apps, contacts and all, every time you reboot - if you do not upgrade/update your android files.
And yes, you do need to go thru the same steps every time you reboot your phone. Run CLRCAD, then HARET.
There are a couple of autoload/booters floating around the forums. I personally use m_skip's autoloader (do a search, sorry, I don't have the link)
And yes, android does use up the battery pretty fast. There are a lot of helps to stop this - but you need to do your own searching on that in the android threads

[Q] ZTE v9 Light (Base TAB) newbie

Hey Folks,as u read: I am totally new to android.
But here are some facts about me I'll tell you just to say sorry for dumbp questions right at the beginning.
I have a good base of Linux knowlege and i also always was modding my phones. If it was my Motorola Razr v3i or my Rhodium Windows 6.5.
Most important: I REALLY dont want others to make MY work. Dont missunderstand me: Some People just dont have the ability to make that on their own and i think, they needed to be helped too, but not me. I want to learn it and i CAN learn it.
But sorry if I post a question in the wrong Forum or ask questions wich have been answerted pretty often. My Problem ist not to read or speak english: It is to imagine the words I need to use for google and stuff to find my answeres. So, some hints, tips or links to Howtos or stuff woud help me alot.
Burt here the bunde of my most important questions:
It all started with Adobe Flash. I guess my Pad has a arm6 or 7 CPU... it has 600mhz and i found a version for that here on xda- i installed it and its working so far for the adobe flv player and swf files but not as an plugin 4 the reguar browser or dolphin hd. any suggestions?
I also wanted to download teamspeak 3. it seems, there i have the same problem. it tells me, my device is incomatible at the market. So is there a way to get it anywhere else and my to recompile it and patch it to work?
next: i tried to root my device using androot and also z4root. it goes through the process without errors and everything seems to be fine but sshdroid tells me, root is disabled. the access to some locations of the phone still is denied and so i cant install nandroid for backups and before i will go on, i REALLY shoud install an backup solution, right folks?
Well- for the first, thats it. if i know that i guess, the rest is more easy to find out on myself as it is right noe.
Again: You dont need to make my work. sorry and thanks at once && greetings from ?good? ol' germany. Alex
well- one thing i also coud need some help... i was searching arround how 2 set my phone for data2ext4 ... but if i wont get running my phone rooted, i can forget about that, cant I? my card already hav an 4GB ext4 partition beside a 12GB FAT partition

(Re-post :) RK3126 - yk98vq-rk3126-v2.1 - Over-bricked ! (Yes, it's possible :D)

(this is a re-post of a new thread in a wrong section, thank the Merovingian who leads me here ! http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/rk3126-yk98vq-rk3126-v2-1-bricked-yes-d-t3505962 )
Dear people all over the world, it's from far far away I write to you !
I tried to change the /system partition of the tablet, after several "auto-reflash" of the partition (the system on reboot deleted always my job), I flashed again and came directly in the "Loader" mode.
I don't know how, the parameter partition became altered, begin with a double "..Param..Param" and made the system unbootable.
From now, I wasn't able to write on the parameter partition any more.
Worst, I don't know how, the tablet start now in a MASKROM mode... The IDBLOCK and nandinfo are not available any more (not downloadable).
All software like "upgrate_tool", "batch tool" "android tool" "rkflashtool"... can neither upload data, nor download.
But the system still recognises the PID and VID (0x2207 & 0x310d), and the flash manufacturer (Samsung), it means, he can still communicate with the µC.
Is there still something to do ?
All ideas are welcome ! (From JTAG reprogramation, re-soldering to simple HW manipulation like pressing 2seconds the reset button ^^ I'm an adventurer ! And I can easily access to a small well provided lab...)
Wish you all the best,
me
