Guest HORV Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 hi bought advent vega, and wanted to run the android market on it, internet and myadventvega says get program from here. unfortunately for me paid the fee in order to get the rom, followed the instructions on the myadventvega site and hey ho.... advent not working stuck in a boot loop, posted on here no replies, absolute rubbish, i gave advent vega to a pc guy, who has managed to restore it but cannot install the rom, it doesnt work for some reason. so if you want to waste a tenner, get nothing for it and no support at all, then pay the 9.99 i would also like to point out to any future people that may also try, i have 3 pc's here and only one would perform the flash for some reason but then it stuck in the loop, and even the pc guy after a week informed me he couldnt reset it, even though the instructions are clearish, i asked him to try on every pc he has, and behold it was reset on the third one, i dont know why this has happened but obviously you must try on lots of pc's for some reason. so go ahead waste your money, and i bet you that i get a reply from this post!!!!! so MoDaCo even Dick Turpin wore a mask and thanks Paul For robbing me.

Good one! even though the instructions are clearish So what is the issue exactly? Lots and lots of people have applied the ROM without issue, and there is a forum full of discussion about doing so. To be honest, I've read back through your posts and I can't really fathom exactly what point you're getting stuck at... it looks like a driver issue and the PC not seeing the device? Is that right? I imagine you didn't get any replies because other people couldn't really work out where you were at either! I'm assuming that before posting this you at least tried sending me a private message to point out you were stuck and perhaps could I have a look (I can't read every single post on the forum after all)... *checks inbox*... oh, what, you didn't? Much better to go off on one eh? P

I assume that's where you downloaded the ROM from? P

It took me about a week to sort mine out from reading threads on here, and it never cost me a penny. I thought about giving up but decided that as I can read and work things out for myself I would, and glad I did
Guest Paul Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 The Vega ROM is a free download and clearly marked as such. If you were robbed, you robbed yourself by not reading the post properly.
Guest JimJam707 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Posted June 30, 2011 Is it wrong that that picture made me think of those "One Sheet is Plenty!" adverts?

Much better to go off on one eh? P i have said in my previous posts i am new and not sure how to search the forum, look at it from my viewpoint, bring up the homepage, where do i find things? enter vega problems or vega into the search bar, what do you get? best way to try and find answers was on google and then it brought up snippets of how to fix but most replies too technical. As to you saying about free and you cant fathom where i was getting stuck, the adventvega.net site states that the kitchen download offers performance extras implying that its better and costs 9.99, as usually things that are free are crap thats why i paid, if you read my post it says i followed the adventvega site instructions and everything was good, the first pc was a sony vaio i updated the drivers as stated in the instructions, by the way these instructions are clear and straight forward otherwise i would not have attempted it, i then clicked on the install windows file as in instructions, a cmd box should appear and after about a minute the vega retarts with the rom on it, however daemon was not found using two sony vaio's and in any usb port, i then tried it on my mrs acer lappy, all went well updated drivers as per instructions clicked on file and hey, it was working only problem was it stuck in booting loop?????? why instructions clear, i now had advent switching itself off and on, i then gave it a friend who understands pc's and after him putting android on my htc hd2 i presume he is competant, it took him 5 days to correct and reflash to original settings, but could not install the rom, its clear either some vegas dont like certain lappy's/pc's nor this rom, or he may not have a compatible pc, all the pc's used run windows 7, i have now given it someone else. so to answer some questions yes i can read, i paid extra as its supposed to improve performance, i am not techy but the instructions were step by step, according to the adventvega site all you need do is download, move and unzip files, plug in and install drivers, then click on install windows bat file job done, but somehow didnt work for me on my two vaio's, maybe its my fault of not being geeky enough or spending my time on forums, i am sure a solution will present itself.

P im not super techie but if my post stated my device was in a booting loop, one would presume that the pc had seen my device and that the drivers were installed, because if they were not then the machine would not be stuck in a booting loop derrr!!

You downloaded the ROM for the Vega from the Vega forum, so it's not a case of searching for it... I've never actually heard of the AdventVega.net site, what is it? It's not an official site is it? I'm not sure your PC expert friend is representative of normal installs if it took him 5 days. P

You'll probably find your attitude won't be conducive to encouraging others to help you, but there you go. P

You'll probably find your attitude won't be conducive to encouraging others to help you, but there you go. P sorry mate but my first two posts were asking if anyone would be so kind as to help me, after a good few days not one reply, i then posted this topic and hey ho i then get loads, it just seems to be a one way street, i supported MoDaCo but no-one supported me. my mate had it for 5 days as he has to work also and has three kids, have a look at http://www.adventvega.net/#/unlock-modify-...reak/4546655167 you will then see how that site works as it all looks easy with clear step by step, you will then understand why a non techy like myself gave it a go, and going off someone else's comment i had to find the vega rom to download? i didnt as the adventvega site has a link to it that takes you to the rom, so didnt have to find it anyway. the vega is booked in at a shop to update it with the android market, which is all i wanted as its a birthday pressie and i wanted the android on it for her. so to sum up, i did not have an attitude i simply got no replies and as i am not familiar with forums i dont know where to look/post, i will leave it at that and i will know better for next time......JUST PAY THE SHOP!!!
