Guest Andy_E Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 ....... also tried doing the same but instead of typing the reboot command I click reboot from the power menu and still same thing, because it is only happening with some vegas im tempted to take it back and ask for either a replacement or refund, of course that would be difficult to explain why as there is nothing visually wrong with it ive noticed that alpha 2 of ics is out, do you think I would have any luck with that? Damn! I was hoping to get some sort of error. I'd take it back if you can think up a suitable excuse. Regarding VegaICS, l'd be tempted to give it a go - let's face it, you're not going to be any worse off. The only other thing I can think of is to use dump_image for the misc partition on a working Vega and then the flash_image command on the one giving you problems...

Tried that dump image and flash image and nothing also tried flashing vegaics and still cant get into recovery ill probably play the noob where I say I had it for christmas and found the screen is terrible and I havent got access to the android market, that should get me a refund Edited January 3, 2012 by Richard_Arkless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont worry about it, I knew as soon as I had problems that it wouldnt end well Annoying thing is that the pcworld I got it from is 28 minutes away and I have no reason to go there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andy_E Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I mentioned your tale of woe on the Tabletroms site and Cass has come up with another suggestion: id be interested to see the result of the partition dump after the setrecovery command is run and then flashed to non working tablet as thats what id be testing initially... He's going to be taking a look himself so any pointers will be helpful (might save you that drive to PC world) so basically on a working Vega: setrecovery boot-recovery recovery dump_image misc misc.img on non-working Vega: flash_image misc misc.img reboot (unfortunately your working Vega will now boot into recovery - I know of no way to clear the "boot-recovery" command) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cd to the sdcard and give the terminal root permission 2. run the flash_image command and a long list of mtd: successfully wrote block at x 3. Type reboot and it reboots back into vegacomb :( Tried reboot recover, rebooting from menu and recovery from menu and same Edited January 4, 2012 by Richard_Arkless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
