[Q] 40yr old with little tech sense compared to you guys needs help - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, I have searched and searched on here for what I need but just cant seem to find it. my GT-S5830 will go into dload mode but when i reboot it gives me the exclemation phone to pc sign. I have dloaded the "S5830XWKTR_S5830H3GKT4_S5830NEKT2_HOME.tar.md5" file and numerous versions of odin of which I now believe that "odin Multi_Downloader_v4.43" is the correct one for me. I think I am missing other files but am not sure. When I press start I get the message "unamed file not found" and in corner i get "killer timer"
I know this forum is designed for new users to learn for themselves and must use the search facility's etc to gain knowledge however I am an OLD new user and was wondering if anyone could help me sort this phone out. I recently rooted it (or at least I think i did) then tried to put new rom on it previous to getting the exclemation symbol. I now am trying to restore it to factory settings unrooted with my 3 carrier. maybe so that I can then root it and install new rom.... thats if I dont find getting my phone back to working condition to complicated..
Thanks in advance for any help and I am sorry admin if I am posting unhelpfully, I dont wish to clog the forum.

Hi, I have no 3BR either but I found an app that gives you the 3BR, it's called Quick Boot and is available in the market, hope that helps.
brian.
That app just goes to force shut down all the time
Jj i understand that you can brick your phone. Ive messed with a psp and that took days of reading. Just need to get this 3 button working and then go from there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785201
I restored download mode on my phone using this guide, you need to read it very carefully though, as I bricked my phone on the first time trying (used odin v1 instead of 1.3), luckily if you do brick then you can use the download mode jig.
got it going ha ha now try to find out how to clock this baby
is anyone can help me with that would be great.

better get the reading glasses out. thanks for that
from what guides ive read through they all seem to be for people who know what there doing.
dont get me wrong i build my own computers (not exactly rocket science) and ive flished my gpu and ive flash WII's and psp's although i did have to do alot of reading on them there were many noob guides or at least semi noob guides
all seem to be going over my head a little
OP updated with another question. dont want to keep opening new threads. so if someone could help i would be grateful thank you
of reading on them there were many noob guides or at least semi noob guides
No all you can do is read whats posted first ..
Noob guides are of no use 99% of noobs dont read guides .
Overclocking most definitely advanced users .
User must be able to recover from bad flash and no how to flash via Odin via CPW update get into download mode and use a recovery jig .

[Q] Incorrect Product Code issues.

So, I'm getting really frustrated and reading isn't helping at all. I know there is plenty out there, but I can't seem to find a solution after spending probably 5 hours today on my phone trying to restore the correct product code on my phone so I can use kies mini to put it back to stock 2.2 android. I followed the directions exactly in this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880223 , all to no avail. I am able to pull my efs file from my phone and edit it just fine, but when I try to push the new edited file back to my phone, something doesnt work in the command prompt, and the window disappears before I can read what's going on.
I really don't know where to go from here. I feel stupid, as if I'm not saving the edited file to the correct place or something. anybody have a similar issue?
The reason I NEED to get this figured out is that I got this phone as a replacement and it came stock with 2.2 on it, so I need to get it back to that in order return it again, and it worries me that I can't get the product code switched back. Am I just SOL?
Have you tried super manger in market. Just make shore you mount data read / rewrite (r/rw). Or use root explorer if willing to buy it

Galaxy note stuck at welcome screen

I know this is a wide issue on many devices, but i could not find one for the Galaxy Note.
So here it is (and sorry if the answer is allready out there):
i tried to root and it got stuck on bootscreen (the samsung logo). I have figured out (or atleast i thing) that the OS is missing, or something like that. So i downloaded it from a forum page here on XDA. The thing is i can't figure out how to put it on the phone. I tryed using ODIN. Any clue of an easy way to do this?
Thanks in advance
i have N7000JPKK2

Hi there There the way to go is this. Pull battery count to ten replace battery and go to download mode (hold volume down press power on while hold volume down). Start odin make sure re-partition is uncheck extract the stock firmware you downloaded so you have a TAR file click on PDA in odin and navigate to that TAR file connect phone odin should react and a yellow square will appear with com 4 in it now press start . Thats it good luck
Don't think this post belongs in this section, it has no relations to development.

hi im new here, so if i posted in the wrong section of the forum , please pardon me ..
anyways, i need help with my tablet, is made by huawei , not really sure what model this is but its just a low end device but still somewhat important to me since it was a gift. going back, i have rooted way back , and earlier today i installed an app called app root delete, it basically uninstalls app etc., now it has two options one is the safe mode and the other i forgot, in safe mode the app basically only disables/hides the app and you can later enable it again , and the other (the one i forget) totally uninstalls the app ,now for my problem , i was playing with using the SAFE MODE option, i was scrolling down and up since i was surprise there were alot of "apps" which i dont even remember installing , and while i was scrolling back and fort my tablet suddenly freezes and i accidentally "uninstalled/disabled" an app which im not suppose to, then i suddenly got an error message which i cant really remember but it said something like "androind.something suddenly stopped working" and it gave me an option to force close it , i kept clicking on the force close button but im still having the error message and thats when i decided to turn it off using the power key , and now when i power it on again , its always stuck on the welcome screen , i've tried powering it off and on several times, but still its stuck in the welcome screen , i hope you guys can help me. thanks in advance
Several issues with your thread.
1) Without knowing the exact model tablet you have, nobody can help you. You need to find this first.
2) Once you find out which model you have, search for its corresponding forum, and search there for information to help you. If need be, make a thread in its [email protected] forum
For what it's worth, it sounds like you are to have to delete all your data, and flash a stock ROM. Follow steps one and two, and you should be good.

[Q] How can i 'unbrick' my Motorola Razr I XT890?

While i was watching a video on facebook my phone randomly crashed, i waited for the phone to die as i didn't know about the soft reset i could do, and ever since then the phone has not booted past the red motorola logo, i've looked up a few ways to 'unbrick' my phone but they all required me to be able to go onto the device and enable USB debugging mode, which i obviously can't do. I have tried 1 other way which was to try and run "xFSTK-SoC-Driver-Setup-1.0.3.exe" and see if the bootloader would be reinstalled but i keep getting a message saying "libusb0.DLL is missing" and when i download the .DLL online it still says the message no matter where i put it.
I can get into the fastboot menu and i have formatted it to see if there was something on the phone that was stopping it from booting, but alas i am still here with a 'bricked' phone. Hopefully someone can help me get this sorted as i'd rather not have to be on my Nokia C1-01 for long
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the information but to me that is just words and links, i have no idea what to download, what i need to be looking into, how to use RSDLite, i'm more a visual learner so i learn via watching (im actually a 90% visual learner) and the fact i have no background with this it is relatively confusing

No problems at all, that's exactly what XDA Assist is here for

Hi MrWafWaf,
Here some extra help.
The things we are going to do is using RSD-Lite to restore your phone if it only has software problems. And we suspect it has that.
What u need for it are the following:
- RSD-Lite from here, unzip and install
- USB drivers: 32Bits or 64bits windows, and install it
- The firmware, this is the difficult part. U need the one from your country. If u got it wrong, it will maybe not be fully optimized for your country and language. Allways take the latest, in this case one with '9.8.2I' in it. (need help, say from where you from, carrier and if u buyed it from a carrier or retail. Maybe we can say which one u need)
So u now have RSD-Lite installed, the drivers installed and a zip file with the latest firmware.
Now see this thread: here
It's about using RSD-Lite. U already did step 1 and 2 from the 6 steps (not numbered, in quote) short guide.
Fastboot mode: Getting into it;
To get in AP Fastboot mode from power off: Hold Powerbutton + volume down. By holding those 2 the phone will boot and after a few seconds reboot. At the time the phone reboots and vibrates release the powerbutton. Now u will be in fastboot mode with all those text lines.
To get in AP Fastboot when the phone is on the (un)lock bootlogo: Hold powerbutton + volume down + volume up. Keep holding it. At the moment the phone reboots, release the powerbutton and volume up. KEEP holding the volume down button. It will now boot in fastboot mode.
Good luck. For the fastboot mode, u may need to try it a few times before it works. But i can assure you it always will work unless u have a hardware problem.
