First of all I would like to apologize for not so perfect English
I have U8650 and i would like to make this topic general topic for it. I know there are few topics but there is no much info in them.
I have made same topic on croatian forum for phones so i think it will be better if its on xda because there are much more people that are good in cooking cracking etc.
So lets begin
Detailed specifications can be seen on the LINK, however, the battery is 1400mAh[/ B] and not 1250 (i have sent email to gsmarena to change it but nothing hapend...)
ROOT and the original ROM
After playing with the phone I wanted too root it, after a good deal of trouble, and around 40 readed topics (without overdoing it) I came up with some knowledge, of course the problem is that the phone is currently on only few markets. (spain, croatia, turkey, australia and china i think)
To root U8650 you should flash it with original Rom, Spanish devices dont need original rom to root dont know why it is but it is
ROM
It is necessary to download an official ROM
LINK
After you download it unrar it and dload folder copy to memory card
Path should look like \ dload \ update
to flash device you need to
turn it off
remove the battery for 5 seconds
put the battery back in
press the buttons "VOL +" + "VOL-" + "ON" (all three keys at once)
and will start automatic firmware upgrade
for 3-4 minutes cell is debranded
If you get error not found firmware that means that you did not put the firmware on the SD card like you should (I got it a few times) just off the device and repeat the procedure.
root
After flashing unbranded firmware we can throw at root
software needed for the root LINK
This is similar to debranding.
download root file
Put it on SD card
turn off the phone
remove the battery for 3 seconds
Press "VOL +" + "ON" (without the vol-)
When you open the "bios like" menu use the volume keys up/down to select the update from memory card called root
after this procedure just reboot the phone and you have rooted phone
UNLOCK
My wife is on vip network so I had need to unlock cell

contact the man, he tells you to pay € 13 at [email] [email protected] [/ email]
Send him mail with the payment for approximately 12 hours with you (he said 2-3 days al always come to 24h)[/SIZE]
if this is forbiden on xda i will remove it
If you have any questions please ask, this all is wrote on xda and some other forums i just put all together
[B]Do not think i am responsible if anything goes wrong I have done in exactly those steps and everything works normally. Everything you do yo do at your own risk.[/B]
So: D after a slightly longer introduction with u8650 came the day to put Custom rom.
Of course, for custom rom you will need root thus described above tutorial.
After puting custom rom phone is like 20% faster
few main features
Integrated flash (load all ads from the flash) loads test flash from Adobe i didnt test it much more because yesterday i put custom firmware
new driver for the camera from turkcell that means 5MP camera resolution
Better battery life
overclock processors at 780MHz (you can set it manualy)
Here is the complete list of modifications that is taken with [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=262489"]LINK[/URL]
In principle, this entire tutorial is taken from [B]Zadkyn[/B] and translated becuse he is hard spanish guy nothing is on english he is not very good at answering questions but thanks to him we have custom roms and all the improvements.

I put 1.5 version because it has corrected a couple of bugs.
Biggest object is that he removed default camera app imho it's not a problem because you can instal lg camera.
So here is tutorial
What you will not learn from linked topic (and I found out by sheer luck) is that you need to install drivers and custom "bios" to be able to put custom rom
So first things first
You will need to do procedure in this topic [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=256095"]LINK[/URL]
First download the driver for Windows 7 [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?3bvp3p42t4iqwt2"]LINK[/URL]
So these are the drivers that you install and run you will have a screen with two options press instal drivers
If you have XP and these drivers dont work download this [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?20qkr711ceuna0n"]LINK[/URL]
I have W7 so I leave to you if this is working for xp (it should work because no one has yet complained )
The second step is to download this file [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?k421vgl3xy1fgpa"]LINK[/URL] unzip it and run Instalador.bat
You have fine hacker green screen and bunch of Spanish. luckily it doesn't interest us. Go to the next step and that is putting the phone in Fastboot mode.
The third step unplug the battery cell out/in pressing VOLUME - (or the volume down) and the power button and hold for 10 seconds.
it will show you only the Huawei logo and it should only show you that.
Step Four Connect the mobile phone with the USB cable, wait until computer detects it and after a few seconds go ti fine spanish green screen and press any key
It will flash "bios" of the phone it should be ready in a minute or two there is no hurry.
then reset the cell and you should have a fine new "bios".
Check this by turning off cell battery out / in and press the Volume + (volume up) and the power button for 10 seconds.
It should appear with orange letters like from the picture
[IMG]http://postimage.org/image/2d31ltan8/[/IMG]
After you have fine new "bios" you want to put fine new rom
The first step with this rom download [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?8qd05qhv5flhips"]LINK[/URL]
The second step is to put the zip in the root of your memory card.
The third step going into the BIOS mod So turn off the cell battery out / in the volume + power button for 10 seconds.
You get orange letter menu now navigate with the volume + and - and with the power Buton you confirm it.
The fourth step choose the factory data wipe, then wipe the cache and then advanced wipe devil cache (not the exact name but you will seen it)
Each time when you choose wipe you need to confirm it, always navigate to yes i want to wipe.
Fifth step Return to start of the BIOS and select the custom recovery and navigate to the zip file called zadkin and select it.
When you choose it will start to flash for me lasted about 4minute when it's finished, reboot the system and if everything went well (and there is no reason why not) you will get the boot menu with zad logo.
For first time cell loaded few minutes so patience.
After that you have a nice Costum rom that is faster and more economical with better battery life stronger processor and better camera
If you have questions feel free to shoot.
The same as in the first part of post you do all on yours risk and I am not responsible for any problems and errors. I did everything according to these instructions and I got what i wanted.
[B]CODES[/B]
codes for the service menu
[B]*#*# 2846579 #*#*[/B]
code for the info on your phone
[B]*#*# 4636 #*#*[/B]
All of this is wroted on few forums and i just wanted to put all in one place on the most visited forum for android (xda)
Also i would very like if someone with more expirience can read this tutorial and suggest something.
one more thing that i left out is RAM limitation and i hope to get some answers about that.
also if this helps someone feel free to thank me
Best regards
just flashed your custom rom without problems. its amazing what people can do..!! it seems based on the yoigo firmware and you have english and spanish as languages. everything you need is included filemanager app2sd etc. i like it very much.. thanks.
edit: could you kindly tell what the flashing of the bios (with pc) exactly is for?! thanks
If you dont flash that bios you cant wiPe devilk cache and you cant instal modified rom so basicly puting new bio is must for moded roms
It will be great if someone else can try this
As for wiping the data, there was only one thing possible to wipe. everything else was just a line of "NO" without option to change it.
I now have like 3 programs running in background thats cool... and of course its cool that many programs are removed that cant be removed otherwise (like documents2go trial)
But thE stock yoigo firmware is good too... It already comes with the possibility to install apps to SD u dont need extra program for that
EDIT :and i just come back to phone.. i left it on charger over night.. and its in the orange BIOS MODE !!!! so it crashed i guess ??? bad
EDIT2: Couldnt access 3g internet even tho i had the right profile .... will test some more
Unofrtunately the custom ROM has still a lot of bugs, be careful :-(
yeah its BS... i am going back to original yoigo at least there i can make it install all aps to SD automatically .... this hacked firmware cant even transfer most new aps to SD..
i hope i will have no problems cos of flashed bios...
thanks anyways both of you
edit: 2 more bugs.. adblock dont work (some java error crash) and the 11mb adobe flash cant be copied to sd or removed at all
out of 27 apps (a few downloaded by me) 7 can be copied to SD and 20 cant
is there anyone who tested cyan mode for this phone ?

huawei u 8650 phone is dead
hi ,after installing official firmware ,my phone got brick.i also made backup with cwm recovery,but now my phone only show black screen only alittle blink of light when i push power bottom,how can i solve this problem
I don't understand, if you root your phone yo unlock it from its carrier? I mean, free to use with whatever sim card from any mobile company?
Didnot work on U8652
12/14/11: I tried the rom upgrade on U8652 ATT fusion and received "install error' after unpacking.
Any suggestions?
12/15/11: I successfully installed the 'recoveryclockmod' after finding the proper android usb driver for winXp - 'pulse drivers'
then installed the custom rom. But the phone details on the installed custom rom says its a U8650 model not U8652.
Thanks OP
Thanks OP
I followed your instructions and installed recoveryclockmod and cyanogen_u8650-benru on my U8652. Now I finally have root and a nice ROM to play around with. Thanks OP
Does the root part work on a Huawei U8650 Sonic that came with android 2.3.5 and newer ROM ( U8650V100R001C343B851 ) ?

unlockroot doesn't work, i tried the latest version (2.2) and i get the same error "Failed to get shell root !"
I have fried my U8650
I attempted a firmware update (official)... stage one completed... phone restarted and got stuck with a grey screen (no logo nothing just blank grey screen) all the soft buttons are turned on. constantly.
It wont go in to recovery, a simple touch to the power button turns it on and then it wont turn off unless I take the battery out.
I tried flashing with DC unlocker but my system wont detect it, I have installed the drivers provided at huawei site.
the phone was just a week old and am real pissed.
worst part, i did all that after reading this post
Anyone has any idea, how i can get it to work once again.

I didn't try this method and I'm only suggesting it because it sound like you almost bricked your phone.
You could try installing ClockworkMod recovery using fastboot (here is a guide for that androidforums.com/sonic-all-things-root/476263-root-guide.html just follow 1-9 ) and then flash the original rom for your phone (I found a list of stock roms here android.modaco.com/topic/350367-huawei-u8650 )
Dont forget to wipe data/cache before flashing the new rom ( this might be the cause for the state your phone is in now )
Update:
Got the drivers by installing hi space and letting it search for appropriate drivers. Worked real smooth.
Now Computer detects phone. But the instalador.bat keeps on searching for device :S
Stuck and stumped once again.
I want to believe but all I see is darkness... or a mildly lit lcd with greyness to be precise. thoughts, ideas anyone.
Thanks man. A ray of hope finally.
Only one problem.
My system won't detect the phone. When i plug it in via usb, it turns on. I mean all the buttons turn on, screen turns dark grey from dead black. But that is it. Computer wont detect it. I am running on windows 7.
Another system detected it which was running on XP but it wouldn't accept the drivers.
Hi! I unrooted my Optimus Chat (LG C555) with SuperOneClick then installed a few apps, one being (ROM Toolbox Lite) then I deleted 2-3 meaningless factory apps such as Blutooth, LG Market.. and rebooted doing a factory reset through the software because somehow it's what it did when I asked to backup my current ROM.. then when the unit rebooted I got greeted with a black screen, only the toolbar on top and I get the following message:
(The application Setup Wizard (process com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly)
Once I close it there's nothing I can do to go in settings. I tryed a hard reset with the buttons but it keeps doing the same thing in a loop. I can't believe the unit looks to be bricked only because of 2-3 useless apps that I deleted. Is there anything I can do to make it work? I tryed (Android Commander) but it doesn't see the unit. SuperOneClick won't work anymore, I cannot hear a USB sound when I plug it in my computer and LG programs see it but when I click the (SOS Recovery) it try to download something but just fail everytime after 35 seconds with an unknown fatal error so there's no way at all to reset it and restore the factory apps on the internal memory. Hell I didn't even see a single custom rom that showed my cellphone in the compatibility list as if my cellphone didn't exist though it came out 2 years ago.
Is it good now for garbage or there's some special trick I could try to recover it? I wasted 9-10 houres already I'm gonna get crazy! Please help.
So, genius me got into stuff maybe I shouldn't have and now my p769 is not quite bricked... but is still quite useless. Perhaps the wonderful minds here can help me figure out how to make it useable again.
Starting at the beginning:
I downloaded the free SQLite editing apps from the play store and tried to edit the value of "data\data\com.android.providers.settings\database\settings.db" "tether_dun_required" and set it to 0, hoping to circumvent Tea Mobile's tether data limits.
The SQLite apps were not as user friendly as I had hoped; the first app seemed to give me an error when trying to set the value to 0; the next app seemed to indicate that the prior update command had worked (showing a 0 value); a third app seemed to indicate that the second app was mistaken and that the value was still "1". I finally downloaded a non-root enabled app, copied my settings.db app to a non-system folder, made the edit, and pasted the file back.
It is important to note that I was suspicious about why 2 other files from that same \database\ folder had seemingly disappeared but they were mysteriously disappeared, and there was not much I could do about it, so I continued on to test my wifi tethering.
The wifi tethering data limit bypass did not work, so I tried restarting my phone. The phone hanged at the T-Mobile splash screen (I was running stock V20f, rooted); the little dots on the original T-mobile splash screen were animated, but startup hanged at the splash screen.
I then did a hard reset (vol up + home + power button). This took an incredibly short amount of time (a few seconds) and then the phone restarted itself.
The phone boots into the LG/Android "Startup Wizard" and asks me to enter my google information, set up wifi, etc. I cannot set up anything because, for whatever reason, no keyboard will open. I choose "next" or "skip" to simply get to the point when the setup wizard says "Go to home screen". When I press "Go to home screen", the message comes up "You can return to this setup screen at anytime by launching the "setup" application from the application tray" and, when I press "OK", I see "Sorry! Unfortunately, LGSetupWizard has stopped". After I press OK, Startup Wizard app restarts again at the initial screen. It is an unending cycle. Even at that final screen before I press "Go to home screen", pressing "Sign in to Email" results in the same crash error message, pressing "Sign in to Facebook" results in "Warning Facebook app is not installed !! Don't test it" and "Set up voicemail" results in "Warning TMUS app is not installed !! Don't test it"
Home button does nothing, long pressing home button does nothing; back button does not exit the Startup wizard. I can't get into settings or any other app (except the browser if I press More Info when the Tmobile disclaimer comes up about anonymous diagnostic data). I don't have a custom recovery on the phone and I don't think I ever unlocked the bootloader. All I ever did was use cmahendra's offline fix to root.
I tried Cmahendra's offline kdz install again now but the phone won't be detected by the phone update software after 15%. I had this same issue when I first upgraded and rooted my phone months ago but then I could perform his workaround by starting the phone, and then setting the phone to reboot into Software Upgrade mode. Now I can't do that because I can't even pull down the notification bar in the Startup Wizard.
Can anyone point me to a way to get a reset to fully install a ROM? I will install custom ROM, Recovery, bootloader, whatever. It seems that everywhere I look for solutions to install a ROM, I need a custom recovery and to install those I need an unlocked bootloader and to install those I need to download files without any working links (many want me to visit mega.co.nz which results in a nice white cloud with an M in the middle and no download link).
I won't be able to troubleshoot this again until 6 or 7pm PST on 03/13/2014, but I am open to suggestions as to what is my best course.

I've actually just run into the same problem, only difference is I rooted my phone, then eventually uninstalled the system keyboard like a dumbass after I installed GO! Keyboard, on top of deleting the system home app after installing ADW launcher. Then last week I accidentally knocked into a can a beer while I was sleeping, soaked my phone and panicked, turning it on and resetting it (don't ask me why that was my first instinct...), then rice-bowling it for 5 or 6 days....Now it turns on, the screen is visibly waterlogged but still fine, however I'm stuck in that same exact infinite loop you speak of. The voice recognition obviously doesn't work either. And even if it did I'm betting the home app being gone it'd still go "Sorry! Unfortunately, LGSetupWizard has stopped".
All that is to say, I'd really love some input from anyone whose run into this problem like me and this guy^. I read somewhere on these forums that there's an 'emergency firmware recovery' tool in LG PC Suite, so i'm following up on that atm, but it doesn't seem promising because LG PC Suite won't detect my phone anymore
pls send help :silly:
Wow. WOW. After about two hours of searching these and other forums/pages I've solved the issue; I had to keep messing around but I actually skipped some of the steps listed and still got it done, I basically just booted the phone into s/w upgrade mode without the battery, then instralled the drivers for it's specific mode about two or three separate times (I attempted all the downloads I had just to be safe, and actually restard the computer or anything), then ran the lg mobile update tool. it took about 20min and after it was finished the phone just rebooted, and my home launcher, along with the voice recog was able to be used, however limited, didn't care really because I finally got past the f-ing "Sorry! Unfortunately, LGSetupWizard has stopped". As I type this I'm using voice recog to search for a keyboard apk file. Hope this helps.

Could someone send me a stock rom for the 2015 BLU Life One 4G LTE?
(LIFE ONE X010Q)
So far I've only been pointed to the Life One thread with information about the original Life One phones and roms.
I'm one of several people I know of who are stuck in recovery mode after the OTA update that we just installed and can't find a copy of the stock rom for this phone anywhere.
Thanks!
Same problem...
I also got the same problem. I got the OTA Update and while installing the Update, I got an error and the phone restarted. After that the phone was stuck in a bootloop. Comes up to the 3e recovery screen.
I'm trying to contact BLU to get the ROM.
I believe the error came from the fact that the phone memory was full. I think it didn't have enough space to do the install.
I am really bummed because I have had the phone for less then a month. And it is a really good phone for the price. If anybody has the Phone (x010q) any provide a backup ROM or even a custom ROM, we will appreciate it.
I am also in this same boat. Kind of regret getting a brand new BLU phone now, used to old Samsungs with stock roms everywhere
Hoping a stock rom/firmware pops up somewhere soon!

same here. I have the update file, but don't know how to load it.
Got it fixed...
I got my BLU Life One fixed. I ended up paying a BLU Certified Tech to reprogram the phone. Cost me $30. The thing is that It took almost 5 weeks for BLU to release the official ROM.
Mine is fixed. Does anyone know how to backup a Stock ROM. If so let me know and I will post the backup image from my phone.

I got my BLU Life One fixed. I ended up paying a BLU Certified Tech to reprogram the phone. Cost me $30. The thing is that It took almost 5 weeks for BLU to release the official ROM.
Mine is fixed. Does anyone know how to backup a Stock ROM. If so let me know and I will post the backup image from my phone.

If you could do a dump of your rom, that would be great.

those are the instructions
Hi, I have a Blu Life One X010Q and for some reason the phone got stuck in the BLU logo screen. When I enter in the system recovery I get the message
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Failed to mount /cache (Invalid Argument)
...and other messages like that.
Can anyone give me a hint about how should I procede? thanks in advanced!

NEED HELP
Hi, I also have a Blu Life One (X010Q) and recently i got the lollipop update but wasnt really happy about it coz of the memory issues (eg. apps installed in the internal memory even with the SD card as preferred installed location and moving or deleting the app doesnt free the memory it previously occupied)
So i rooted and well i removed some system apps and deleted some files in (/system/) apps that i thought was not really useful (I THOUGHT WRONG)
Anyway, after removing them. My phone rebooted. And when it turned back on there was a lot of apps missing including google play and google play services. I tried to reinstall it by downloading an apk file. I successfully installed google play store and google services (and they were on the SD CARD this time) but everytime i try to open the app. It doesn't do anything. So i did a hard reset thinking that might fix it(WRONG AGAIN!!) The app that i installed is gone. And i had to try reinstalling it. But this time i wasn't successful. And then I tried flashing the stock room through recovery but it didnt worked.
E: footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
installation aborted
So the moron that i am unistalled KINGROOT which also unrooted the phone at the same time and did a hard reset (AGAIN) and then i tried to root it again. Still using kingroot but this time it wont do the job because my wifi wont turn on. And the data only runs on 2G.
So here are the problems that i successfully created for myself
1. WiFi not detecting signal and disabling everytime I exit the settings menu
2. Bluetooth not turning on as well. Disables 20 seconds after turning it on.
3. 2G on mobile data
4. Lost Notification Tray, no more notifications displaying at the top of tje phone. Shortcuts are gone.
5. Received messages cant be opened thus impossible to read, unless the whole message fits on the preview of the message thread. Reply has been disabled, sends a message through compose message or through contacts (send message menu)
5. Opening a browser app (UC, Chrome, Firefox, Dolphin) freezes the phone.
6. The display is upside down (auto rotate disabled)
Is there a way for me to fix this?
is the flashing possible if the phone is stuck in the boot cycle/logo?
Without the phone on, I can't see it recognized by the computer.

Yes, its possible... remember you need first install the drivers provided by me located in the zip, second open the app and configure to install the rom and third plug with your phone turned off into computer... only do it that the computer can see the download mode, (see the earlier post... and read the instructions inside the zip to configure the app to restore your phone)...
THANK YOUUUUU!! @davidequiz It works!!! had some troubles with the drivers but i got through and my phone works again! So happy

Hello,
May I first apologize for my english : non-native speaker, some erratic grammar might happen.
Si un francophone passe ici, ce sera bien plus facile pour moi
I'm NOT skilled in android fix, so be patient and please forgive if i ask you more precision to understand what you say !
I own a Motorola E, 1st Gen, since feb.2015.
Legal warranty void six weeks ago...
No root, no boot, no custom rom.
Kitkat 4.4 (or maybe 4.4.2, can't remember)
It's an XT-1022
In the last weeks, a trouble appeared : i could neither listen or speak to my interlocutor, but by pluging in a wire headset or putting the phone on speaker (the one you shan't but still use while driving). The normal "phone pressed against the ear" did not worked anymore.
The first times, a simple reboot was all it needed to go back to normal.
Since a few days, reboot have no effect.
After an extend search on the internet, i found a solution for the Moto G (2nd gen) that appeared to work perfectly.
Going from Dalvik to ART, which i did friday (march 10th).
1st reboot, upgrading 150 apps => Several error messages stated that XXX app has stopped. Then "com.android.systemui" has stop, and i cannot validate the prompt : once I click "OK", it comes back before i could even read the next error message. I can't do anything with the phone. ==> Reboot by long hold on POWER
2nd reboot, upgrading 39 apps => Several messages again, com.android.systemui again ==> Reboot by long hold on POWER
3rd reboot, the same
4th reboot, upgrading 29 apps
5th reboot, the same
6th reboot, the same
7th reboot, upgrading 28 apps.
xxth reboot, the same ...
Yesterday, after a day's rest and no manipulation, count on upgrading application dropped to 27. By repetivly pressing "ok" and 'report" when avalaible, i somehow managed to get as far as parameters menu. Can't scoll in the microscopic time given between two prompt. However, -> The phone seems to receive calls (it ringed) but not to show the screen (caller ID, accepting the call, etc.) -> Afterward, the led flashed again.
The android buttons (back, home, active application list) doesn't show up.
And here i'm stuck !
What i tried :
A coffee. Did nothing to the phone, but improved my optimism
Shut it down, let it rest, power it
Fully charge it
Make it reboot by a long hold on power button while it was "upgrading 28 apps".
Pluging it to the computer, to see if it did anything (it didn't)
Making loud assumption on the engineer's mother honour and weight.
Go to recovery mode, and let it boot (if i understand well, it's just a normal boot for long inactivity)
Go to recovery mode, and wipe cache partition
Asking Motorola Tech Support => Factory reset. Haven't done it yet, as i've no data back-up and hope there is a less hansbringtheflammenwerfer method.
Tried to do this : android.stackexchange.com/questions/81411/moto-e-is-not-switching-on-after-changing-runtime-to-art?noredirect=1&lq=1" => I made it up to the 5th step ; but 6th don't work "Not recognized as a command or program" I tried the shell on E:\Programmes\AndroidSDK and E:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools. Neither works. Unfortunately, i don't know if USB debug is enabled so it might explain why it doesn't worked.
Boot into safemode, with and without the SDcard.
What should i do now ?
Thanks a lot,
Kaldui.
PS. I first posted in Motorola boards, no answer, then in Android Entousiasts, no answer, so i try another time with you ... hopefully ...

Hello Ankit_29
And thank you for answering !
All the data on the SDcard (photos, som apps data) is already copied unto my computer.
I cannot access any of the data on the internal memory (SMS/MMS etc.) and so cannot make any backup.
While in its error loop, USB connection doesn't work. And i cannot navigate into the phone due to the error prompts.
=> Is there another way ?
What do you call hard reset ? Is it the same as Factory reset that wipes everything aboard but Android itself ?
Again, thanks,
Kaldui
PS. For now, phone' charging, 32% battery

Yes, hard reset it the factory reset process which you do through recovery mode.
Enter fastboot mode > Highlight recovery option > from recovery select “wipe data factory reset”.
In addition choose “Wipe cache partition”; from main menu of recovery pick “advanced” and then select “wipe dalvick cache”. Done.
*but you will loose your internal storage data
Don't ask me why, don't ask me how ...
... Android automatically reverted to Dalvik.
My best guess is : there is an idiotproof security somewhere that revert automatically after to much fails (at least 20) on booting under the new runtime.
Maybe installing the motorola drivers on my computer before repetivly booting in normal and safe mode while the USB cable was plugged had a positive effect.
Maybe the little bug felt that i painfully resolved to fetch the electronic axe (aka hard reset) and flew away ...
It seems that no data was lost.
It's a true relief !
Even if i did not followed your last instruction, thank you very much for you commitement Ankit_29.
Would you ever stop by Paris, let me know, i owe you a drink
Kaldui.
PS. To the android engineer : i was mistaken, you weren't making overtime to pay the attorney for your divorce, yo mama is a fine women, she ain't this overweight, and her reputation is of a loving, caring and faithful person. I also own you a beer.
