Guest T4ylor Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Well it looks like if manage to break one of my Vega's. Everything was fine yesterday whilst installing a few apps etc but tonight when i have come to turn it on i can not get past the Advent screen. When you turn it on the it say Android as normal but but as soon as Advent comes up it just shuts down. At first i thought it was becuase the battery was dead so i pluged it in for a while but its still the same. Anyone got any ideas please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TylerDurdenK Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Have you tried installing 1.04? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest T4ylor Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Have you tried installing 1.04? It will not turn on in order to get it into recovery mode so i can not re-flash it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TylerDurdenK Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) Erm..... you don't turn it on to get it into the Advent flash mode. Here is the sequence you need to put the Vega into the mode required for flashing the Advent 1.04 update. (not really a recovery mode) 0) Plug in the Vega to the power supply 1) Hold down BACK key 2) After 2 seconds hold down POWER key (keep back key held) 2) After 2 seconds (holding both keys) release POWER key. 4) After a further 2 seconds release the BACK key. The whole sequence should take 6 seconds. Edited December 13, 2010 by TylerDurdenK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never had a problem getting into that mode before but this time it just does not want to play ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never had a problem getting into that mode before but this time it just does not want to play ball. It finally worked for me when I held the power down for only about 1.5 seconds... I think if the screen backlight comes on you've gone too far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nigelpwilson Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 downloaded pauls version from andriod market - used it to try and get my vega into recovery mode for the 1.06 update I'm no expert, but the market dowload is just an app to force the vega into revovery, to use it you need to have pushed the recovery image to your vega as per here http://android.modaco.com/content/advent-v...he-advent-vega/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gregga Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Mirrors my experience.... only got the version from the market, nothing else installed. - is this bad? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest arad85 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 only got the version from the market, nothing else installed. - is this bad? :) It shouldn't be as it's only an app to get it to reboot through clockwork recovery. If you don't run it, it doesn't (or shouldn't :)) affect anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gregga Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Houston we have LIFT OFF! tried rebooting on laptop rather than desktop and shes back to life. have lost all old files on my vega tho - DAM will have to start at level 1 again on angry birds... o well - could have been worse cheers for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
