Pulling my hair out.

[Guest Chris Blanc]

Ok.. looking for some help here pls. Where am I going wrong??

I wouldn't call myself a noob per se, I've installed roms etc before, but I wouldn't say I'm anywhere near knowing what I'm really doing with this stuff lol.

last week I looked at putting on the cyanogen rom onto my vega. I have the latest cyanogen rom on my Desire and am loving it so I thought I'd give this a go.

Nothing, nada. And my vega wouldn't restart.

After a fair bit of messing around I finally managed to reinstall the 1.09 image, but now I can't put anything on it.

First I tried the latest market apk, which installed, but then when you try to open it, it just opens and closes right away.

I then tried to install Pauls r8 rom, which was running fine on the vega before.. but I can't seem to do it. I have a new pc since I last did anything with the vega, and this one is recognising the vega in device manager as an Nvidi tegra2 device in the disk drives section. When I try to install the r8 in the cmd box, it tells me that it is waiting for a device and to ensure that usb debugging is enables (it is) and to ensure it's connected to a pc.

I've been messing with this all day, so any help would be very much welcomed

Thanks all

Chris

is it whats on the sd card ?

Try using a newly formatted sd card.

The softwareImage_v1.09_Vega_Final.exe install should clean eveything , but not the sd card.

It may be an idea .

Sounds like you are hitting the proverbial "USB Driver" issue we have all experienced before. There are lots of topics to help on this subject so just do a search for this string and include your operating system. What is your OS by the way?

[Guest Chris Blanc]

I have Windows 7 Home premium.

I should leave these things alone, but where's the fun in that haha

[Guest Chris Blanc]

Sorted (I think...)

I went here:

http://android.modaco.com/content/advent-v...4/#entry1527188

and when I re-checked in device manager, not only was the vega appearing as a disk drive, but also in the USB controllers bit. I updated the driver to that and then it showed up.

Cheers all for that

God I love this place.
