N900 rebooting and boot mode not working... NEED H...

Hi everyone,
I need some help with my N900.
First I have installed the Nitdroid N11 and play with it a bit but I had some reboot problem but nothing wrong on the Maemo OS.
After installing the new Nitdroid N12 as stated in the forum, I have loaded into the N12 and play a bit with it. But the N900 were still rebooting every so often (may be every 10 min) into Nitdroid UMay aka N12. Because I didn't install the new kernel which is nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_rc3_armel.deb I have decided to do it and see if it will change anything. So after installing it it didn't change anything.
So I decided to reboot into Maemo but the boot option did not work anymore.
I have the N900 restarting every 50 sec, the orange light always on and the Nokia logo showing up but the phone doesn't get to the boot option.
I have try to load into boot mode but it doesn't work. I am not even sure if it is charging at all.
Did someone had the same problem? Can anybody help me?
Cheers
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well I don't think the problem is with Nitdroid as I was playing with that before the phone stopped to work.
The problem is the phone actually seems to not charge at all. When it is plugged into the usb or the charger there is sometimes a steady bright yellow light or sometimes no light at all. Sometimes when I press the power button the Nokia logo comes up, the light is white-blueish and bright and the phone reboot in loop. I don't even get to the boot up options.
I have heard that if the battery is completly flat this problem might occure but if you leave it plug in it should change from bright orange to flashing orange to show that the phone is charging. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=72988
But I have none of that flashing light anymore. I have tried to connect the lead of my battery to an other phone and it actually worked for this phone and showed the battery as full but not for the N900. Which mean the battery must have been charged.
I want to try the rescue Initrd but I need to have at least a connection with the PC but nothing seems to work.
Sothe phone is not working, it seem that the battery is not being charged, I can't flash my phone even when trying by pushing the U key.
I am really lost and don't know wht to do anymore.
Anybody could help? I will really appreciated it.

Poster Frame and Trim Mode not working properly with post-synced clips

Hi Everyone-
Final Cut Pro seems to be doing something really odd and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced it and if so what is the fix:
We are shooting a movie on Red with sound coming in on multitrack wav files. We downconvert the R3D files to Prores and then manually sync the tracks in the timeline.
We link the pix and sound and drag them to the bin to make our dailies. They all play, in sync. When we try to set a poster frame the issues begin. If I load the clip into the browser park the playhead on a frame and choose poster frame, the actual frame in the bin is very noticably offset (often by a few seconds).
Also, when I use the trim mode, the frames jump to a different part of the shot during trim. It's like the shot is jumping ahead or back while I hit the frame advance or recede buttons. Once I let go of the button the image jumps to the correct number of frames. But, it's very distracting if I am trying to trim, for example, to just before an actor blinks. I can't trim 1 frame at a time. I have to keep hitting the button, watching the picture jump to a different part of the shot, release the trim button and watch the picture jump back to the now correctly trimmed frame...
As a test I took some of the Prores clips with scratch track sound and brought them into the bin directly from the finder, bypassing the syncing. Using those clips, the trim and poster frames work as expected. Obviously something is going on during syncing.
I assumed maybe because the audio and pix we different lengths the clip was getting "confused", and didn't know where to "start". So, in the timeline with the synced clips, I razor bladed a few shots, linked them, and dragged them to the bin so the audio and video were the exact same length... Same issue.
I have noticed the same behavior on 2 separate Macs so I don't think its a preference or corrupted install issue.
Anyone seen this and have any suggestions?
Thanks,
David

Yes, David, I'm having the same problem under the same circumstances. we're using merged clips made from Prores QTs and multitrk BWF files. In the trim window, the display frame jumps ahead considerably in a frame-by-frame trim, but trims accurately in the timeline. My only work-around has been to use the left/right scrub arrows in the trim window when necessary, which displays the correct frame. Sorry not to have an answer, but I saw a post on another forum from 2007 that speculated it was an FCP 6 bug. Resetting prefs doesn't help.

Unresponsive mac, nothing opening and safe mode not working

Was browsing on Firefox this morning with several windows open tried to use "logmein" app and got the spinning ball for too long. Restarted and logged back in which took longer than usual. The dock would then barely load and if It did would work very slowly, nothing opens at all other than the downloads folder opens and dashboard just about appears, also the top navigation bar doesn't appear only some grey icons on the top right. I've tried opening in safe mode, just gets stuck.
Please help mac enthusiasts!!
cheers, harrison

Hi..
It does turn on, but just sits on the apple logo and spinning wheel.
If you don't hear the Mac startup chimes which indicate your Mac has passed it's startup diagnostics test, you need to take your Mac in for service.

Inspiron 1545 - New HDD and Boot CD not working

Dear Dell Support,
my Inspiron 1545's HDD died and I bought a new WD Blue (WD5000LPVX) to replace it with.
Initially the HDD was not recognizable (PCW cable not present) and after some searching I found that I had to disable NIC on BIOS.
After doing so, the HDD was present on the BIOS.
I tried then to boot from CD, both Windows and Ubuntu, but it never reaches this, even though both changing the boot sequence and choosing what to boot from on F12.
It ends up with a message 'Operating System not present'.
I also noticed that BIOS becomes very slow when the HDD is present.
Finally, it seems that the new drive is a SATA 3 one, but this can be changed using jumpers...
Any ideas on how to boot the laptop with this setup using a CD/DVD?
Thank you.

Touchsmart 520-1047c Mouse and Keyboard will not work after sleep mode

I have an issue which I need some help with. When my computer goes to sleep the wireless mouse and keyboard will not work unless I restart, however each one will wake the system up but will not operate after that. I have tried just making the display go to sleep, both go to sleep but that makes no difference same issue occurs. The only work around I have found is going into the power settings and turning the sleep mode off for booth the computer and display. This does not solve the problem it just masks it. New batteries, unplugged and replugged the dongle, updated the bios and all drivers. Don't know what else to try. Anybody know how to fix this? Thank you in advance for your help.

Can not install windows 7 pro using boot camp as mouse and keyboard will not work Help please

I have a new iMac and trying to install Windows 7 Pro using boot camp. I have reached the stage of starting to load windows from the DVD then discovered the mouse and the keyboards not working so I could not interact with windows installation.

Open, if not so already, the Windows formatter. Identify the BC Windows partition. It will be the one listed with the proper size you created and/or will be labeled as a C: drive. Be careful you select the right one or you may be corrupting the entire drive.
Format the partition as NTFS.

I just bought a power adapter and it is not working, says "not charging". The same for the mobile charger. Anything I need to do in the setting?

The device is locked to the carrier it was purchased through unless you specifically purchased it as unlocked directly from Apple.
Only the carrier to whom it is locked can authorize it's unlocking. To do so, the user much contact them to start the unlock process.

It appears that this is due to firmware corruption and you can fix it by using the micro USB cable and hooking it to iTunes. I have not tried it yet but supposedly several people were able to resolve their problem this way. If you do try it, let me know. I don't have the cable at this time.

I've received a message on my iphone 4s that it needs to be activated and it is not working

I have recieved a message on my iphone 4s that it needs to be activated. I have tried doing this multiple times with strong wifi connection and it is not working. I connected it to iTunes as my phone suggested and i still could not activate it. This is quite frustrating as this does not allow me to use my cell phone for anything and I need it for many things.

It would have saved to your camera roll. Connect the phone to your Air via a USB cable and then run Image Capture which is located either in your Utilities folder or Other folder, depending on what version of Mac OS X your are running. You will then see all the photos and videos stored on your iPhone and can then download them.

My son let one of his friends use his ipad. The next time he tired to use it he could not get it unlocked, I tired to unlock it but it kept telling me that I had the wrong pass code. With out me knowing my son continued to tire until it completely disabled it self.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
