My hp mini 110: bios update screen is displayed but the process repeats again and again, plz help

My HP mini 110-3107tu: At startup HP Bios update screen is displayed with message "The system BIOS is being recovered"....Writing new BIOS image.....
Next message is displayed Verifying new BIOS image...
Thereafter "The System BIOS recovery is complete" message appears. But this process repeats again and again. Please help.
Is there a solution, how i can recover my netbook or should I take it to the service center

I have searched far and wide for a workaround that does not involve sending it to HP. Unforunately, I was not able to find such a workaround.
As a last effort, you can try these steps.
1. Power off the notebook completely.
2. Hold the windows key + b keys simultaneously.
3. Power the notebook on while holding those keys and keep holding them.
4. Let the keys go when you get a message about BIOS recovery.
Let me know what happens.

I have updated itunes 10.6 but i cant sync my iphone 4s, plz help what can i do

what can i do?

I'd suggest you check your iPhone's software and upgrade it if it is not the latest one. If you already have the latest iOS version I'd make sure everything is plugged-in properly (note if the iPhone is charges when you plug it in) or unplug your iPhone and plug it back, maybe you ejected it accidentally.
Do you sync your iPhone over Wi-Fi? Maybe if you mark this option you cannot sync it using the wire...
If it's still not working I'd restore the iPhone and try it again.
Hope this helps! I've never had this situation...

Need Mini 110 BIOS (binary version)

Hi,
I'm hoping someone from HP is monitoring this forum and is willing to assist.
I'm attempting to repair a Mini 110 (VF704AV, mobo #579568-001) for a friend of mine who, after attempting to upgrade the machine, could no longer get past the HP logo. Like others I've found on various forums who have had this exact problem, this one refuses to go past POST and hangs on said logo, allowing no further input from the user (a brief AMI screen confirms "CMOS checksum error" before this occurs).
After hours of trying to get around this error, I've concluded a new BIOS chip to be the only solution. However, I need the binary (.ROM) version of the file as contained with HP's SP47135.exe package. I've found a few close renditions of this file on the 'net, but prefer to have the correct version before committing to have an IC flashed.
As an electronics/computer person who dates back to the Atari days (first job), I must say I've seen more robust upgrade processes. But being unable to extract the binary file is what pushed me over the edge here. I expect better from a company of your stature.
If someone at HP can e-mail this critical file to me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

M-dog,
Thanks very much for taking the time to write. I had tried Winrar with no success, and just for yuks tried 7zip now. Same result: Both will expand the SP47135.exe file, but inside (along with a couple of .sys and .vxd files) is ANOTHER executable (308F0F19.exe) which cannot be decompressed.
As for what I've tried...everything I could find on the 'net. I had near success using a DOS-bootable USB flash drive containing a generic version of the binary file, renamed AMIBOOT.rom to supposedly trick the BIOS into some sort of "limp mode" using CTRL+Home upon power up. However, in each of 4 tries doing this, the BIOS file attempted to load and claimed to have done so successfully. But the promised "rebooting now" never occurs; rather, the fan speed goes into a gradual ramp up and nothing more. Next power cycle leads to the exact same HP logo and locked keyboard. (I've read of this scenario at least twice on other forums.)
Not caring and having nothing to lose at this point, I decided to pull the power midway through the 5th attempt at flashing in this manner. Well, that did it. I now have a totally black screen and can no longer access the flash drive. What this leads me to believe is that the others who have had this problem did not (necessarily) lose power during their failed flash attempt, hence my "less than robust" comment originally. I think the process is flawed and HP knows it.
A BIOS chip company on eBay will sell me the IC, but I have to provide the ROM data file in binary format, which is proving disgustingly difficult. Hence, my presence on this forum.
But again, thanks for your post.

Bios Update Fail - Under Warranty but No Support

Hi,
New to the board and looking for some help. I have a w500 still in warranty. We have been having issues with running Vista and the machine not rebooting after hibernation. Today I found some time to run updates using the pre-loaded ThinkVantage software on the machine. There were quite a few on there including a Bios update... upon running the updates and the machine restarting at the end, I get a black screen.... and nothing... the power lights are on but not more.
I have called Lenovo tech support and they advised me that because I did the Bios update (as part of the many updates that were suggested I required) I have voided my warranty support for this problem.... apparantly I was made aware of this as part of the disclaimer prior to running the updates!!!
Does anyone have any suggestions on steps forward from this point?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

In there you have the old bios versions : http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-74858#version
NO!!! Don't install that update (assuming the installer allows you to do that.)
That link is to the BIOS update for the ThinkPad W510 No wonder your machine may fail to boot correctly after installing that.
You want to create a bootable CD with the latest BIOS for the ThinkPad W500 which can be found at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70354 There are links to earlier versions of the BIOS for the W500 at the bottom of that page as well, if you want to go back to the original version delivered out-of-the-box, but there's no real reason to do that.
Booting from a CD is probably the safest method of updating the BIOS, since it does only that update without interference from any other updates or software (Lenovo's system Update should really only allow BIOS updates to be installed separately from other updates). However, I don't know what happens when the updater finds that the existing BIOS on the machine is for another machine type (W510), assuming you've already tried installing the wrong update referenced in the posting above.

Hello AlexCornejo,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The screen you're seeing on your iPhone indicates it is in recovery mode. Now since the device is not appearing in iTunes on your PC, first follow the steps in this article:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
After following those steps, you should be able to restore your iPhone.
Take care,
Alex H.

If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice, It's in recovery mode. You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead. At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios.

I just broke my ipad. I've taken really good care of it and had it since the third gen came out (bought it right away) the screen is cracked from the bottom right corner and im wondering if i can replace it for free or even at all please help :(

Put your phone in DFU mode,
Hold the Power Button (3 secs)
Continue holding the power button and also hold the home button (15 secs)
Release the power button while continuing to hold the home button (10 secs)
Your device should prompt with the "Connect to iTunes Screen"
Restore.

If you are seeing the "Connect to iTunes" logo, then your device is in Recovery Mode, and you will need to restore it:

Restarting again and again after boot screen

Hi ,
I am using Lenovo G580 laptop, core i5,4gb ram and 500 GB HDD, my laptop is restarting again and again after it showing lenovo boot screen. can anyone please tell me. what might be the problem??

hi saddamali111,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Can you proceed with the following Steps.
Remove the AC adapter and the battery then hold Down the power button for 10sec.
Reconnect the AC and the battery, and turn on the system together with tapping the F2 key.
You should arrive in a BIOS setup page, Hit F9 to load default then press Enter, Now hit F10 to Save and Exit then enter again to confirm.
See if the issue will be same.
If it does, Try hitting F8 When you Power on the system See if it will give you option to load safemode.
also Check if the system will still restart when you turn it on using the NOVO button.
Let me know your findings,
Please share your OS type and version
Regards
Solid Cruver

Apple's Limited Warranty http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ for iPad excludes coverage for damage resulting from accident, disassembly, unauthorized service and unauthorized modifications.
The warranty will apply to the country of purchase. And if there is a problem needing repair you have to return it to the country of purchase.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace (Apple doesn't repair) your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below. (The replacement will most likely be a refurbished iPad in a brown box, however, it has a new screen, back and battery.)
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad 3rd, 4th, Air
$299
iPad 2, iPad
$249
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service. See http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
