WRT54G - Firmware problem - Wrong update of firmware

HI, I have a problem with my WRT54G V8 router.
I download a wrong Firmware and upgrade it.
After this my router never work again.
The PC can't get IP from the router.
I tried a lot of time to access to the web admin 192.168.1.1 and other IP and nothing happen.
I made a lot of reset cycles, with the procedures 30/30/30 or other with the reset button in combination with the power cord.
Exist any other possibility to recover my router.
Can I open and touch other button inside the board or something like this?
Or any other software...I tried the TFTP & other Windows utilities...
I am waiting for your help...
Thanks.

The network cable in the Internet place when I connect stay on without turning off.
And when I plug the network cable between 1-4 place I see that the light turn on/off like it is receiving information.
The IP address is not pingeable.
Cisco does not give another tool to recover it?
Do the upgrade via tftp again. Before doing it again do the following first:
Reset the router. Push and hold the reset button for 1 minute. After a minute, do not release the reset button from being pressed. Continue holding it and unplug the router's power cord for 20 seconds. After 20 seconds connect the power adapter to the router again while still pressing the reset button. When the adapter is plug in, wait for another 10 seconds and release the button. Ping the ip address of the router 192.168.1.1 using the command prompt.(remember the computer should be hardwired to the router and should be DHCP enabled).
If getting replies:
1. Set static IP, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway on the computer: IP: 192.168.1.10 DG: 192.168.1.1 SM : 255.255.255.0.
2: Force the card to 10 mbps half.
3: Perform tftp.
If getting rto:
1. Set static IP, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway on the computer: IP: 192.168.1.10 DG: 192.168.1.1 SM : 255.255.255.0.
2: Force the card to 10 mbps half.
3. Ping the router again and if you are getting replies already, then do the tftp. If not, you can try the steps again using another computer. If using another computer is not going to work then the router might be defective already.

Problem with update of firmware for 5300

Hi,
I have following problem while trying to update my firmware from version 5.51 to 7.00 on my 5300:
I am connecting the phone through usb cable to PC-suite 7.0.9.2 and the update starts normally. Works fine till it reaches exactly 15%. There it shuts down the phone and loses the contact with the phone. Now I am asked to reconnect the phone and click retry. Same thing again and again and... again........
Note that I can not start the phone untill I disconnect the cable and take out the battery!
Does any one know how to get over this point and end the update???

EI! How come no one answered this topic? Help this dude please.. Coz i'm in the same case as he has.. oww, man..

Camera problems after updating 8100 Firmware to v4.5

Hi All
This is a known issue to me as I update all our work handsets with Blackberry firmware for the company I work for.
After updating the firmware on several handsets to the latest 4.5 version of the Blackberry 8100 there is a problem with the camera.
When you are in view mode and outside (even whilst overcast) the screen goes white as if the aperture for the lens is open wide.
Even when you take the picture the result is whiteness everywhere.
Please see examples here:
http://www.imagedump.com/index.cgi?pick=get&tp=540100
and
http://www.imagedump.com/index.cgi?pick=get&tp=540101
Both of these pictures were taken indoors with just flourescent lights on.
However if I return the firmware to a lower level the problem no longer exists.
I have tried changing the white Balance settings on the handset and no matter which setting I put it on the same results occure.
I was wondering if there is a patch or do I have to wait for the next version for a bug fix?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Solved!

Upgraded the handset software to 4.5.0.55 and the camera problem no longer exists.
Can I get Kudos for solving the problem myself?? LOL

Problems after updating to firmware 3.0

Hi all,
On wednesday I had updated to version 3.0 for my iPod touch 2G. I could see comparing to other touch 2G (v 2.2.1) that WIFI connection is very slow into YouTube, Safari, AppStore and all apps that uses WIFI connection.
When I look at Setup -> General -> Information I could see my MAC Address so, problems that have other people on forums is not my problem.
Do Anyone have a solution? or I have to wait to another firmware update.
Thanks a lot

There are a couple of things you can do:
1. Reboot your router
2. Reset your network settings
3. Under the settings for the network you are connected to, change your proxy settings to Auto.
WiFi isn't really slower under 3.0 (at least not on my network) so try those things out.

Z10,Q10 & Z30 slow restart problem after update to firmware 10.2.1.1925

Hi, I have just updated our blackberry Q10 and Z30 to new firmware, which is fantastic! I point out a problem, probably a small software bug.When I turn on the Blackberry reboot is really slow and spend a few minutes before I was prompted to enter the PIN code of the SIM card.The problem is the pin code of the SIM card: If you take this option, restart will be as fast as before! I hope that will be soon released an update that resolves this problem.Thank You Hello.

Thanks for clarifying, hopefully someone from BlackBerry will pick this up and it will be fixed in a future release.

Nokia 6500 slide problem after updated to firmware...

Hi, I have recently updated my nokia 6500 slide with the latest firmware version 9.40. I realise that after the upgrade, my phone encounters problem reading the SD memory card. It happens intermittently, sometimes you see, sometimes you don't. Initially I thought it was due to my memory card but after replacing it with a new one, problem still occurs.

It looks like something on your system caused the updater to crash.
Unfortunately your only option for that model is to take it to a nokia care point for repair. Tere's nothing else that you can do for it.

Actually it's just what you said. I have installed the quran application from the Nokia website in the same day that I upgraded the firmware. Now I removed the application and the browser is working well.
Thank you very much.
Bro, you don't have to uninstall Quran application, just do this :
-download the new Quran application (no more font problem in nokia default browser, they solved it)
OR
-copy all fonts in z:\resources\Fonts to c:\resources\Fonts (create the folder if it doesn't exist) and then reboot your phone (note: your phone must hacked, so the C drive is writable)

Problem after updating to Firmware 2.2.1

Hi.
I am having a huge problem with my iPhone, I have just updated my iPhone to 2.2.1 when I had problems with the SMS because I could not even type anything as "N" kept pressing Enter but I am not touching Enter, so I had to reset and restore it with 2.2.1.
After restoring and syncing the iPhone with my Songs, Videos, Pictures, etc... my iPhone prompted that my iPhone is activated so I dismissed the message, and slided the 'slide to unlock' and got to the Home Menu, this message about the:
*Edit Home Screen*
*To rearrange icons, touch and hold any icon until it starts to wiggle, then drag icons to desired locations.*
*Drag an icon to the far right to create additional Home screens.*
*Press the Home button when done.*
I got this prompted up, so I tried to dismiss it, but I couldn't even dismiss it, I can't even press the 'Dismiss' button.
I restored the iPhone again, it is still not working ... what should I do?
Please help me to let me follow easily.

Hi Wayne,
If there is a protective case or film on the iPhone, try testing without it.
Also, try the general touchscreen troubleshooting tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1650?locale=en_GB#faq5
If the issue persists, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it or call AppleCare.

Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2 update problem

I have an iMac 27" 3.4ghz, 16GB RAM, 768 Flash Drive (SSD), and 2gb VRAM.
The system is only 1 1/2 weeks old and after updating to Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2, both of my ports are not being recognized at all. In other words, they are dead. I've called Apple Tech Support and went through various troubleshooting steps including SMC Reset, Zapping the PRAM, safe booting, etc. and yet nothing works. Finally, they had me do a system image and forward it to their software technicians. The case was opened this past Sunday and I was told they would be getting back to me within 48 hours, but havent heard back just yet.
One thing I should point out, my system keeps telling me that there is a software update showing me the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 is available. I've tried to update many different times and it keeps showing up after my system restarts.
Has anyone else been having this problem after updating to Firmware 1.2 or had any luck updating on an iMac 2012?

I tried this (unplugging/replugging Thunderbolt cable), and rebooting MBP, and unplugging/replugging power cable to the Thunderbolt display. None solved the problem after Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2 update. Prior to Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2 update usually one of those operations would resolve the problem.
However adding the keyboard USB extension cable makes the keyboard working again when connected to the Thunderbolt display.

Zen Micro Firmware problems ***FIXED

Like many of you I had the problem of updating my firmware, only to have it fail and then read "Firmware error" when you try to restart the device. The end result is what appears to be a dead Zen Micro and the PC cannot recoginze it. Well with the help of SSR I finally fixed the problem.
** Please note I am using Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 2 installed
"Firmware error"
The way to fix it is simple. Download and reinstall Windows Media Player 0. I already had it installed, but I reinstalled it anyway. Then go into your Device Manager and right click on your !Creative Zen Mirco and update the drivers. The system will now find the new drivers (MTP?MPT?) and you have connectivity with your Zen again.
Now you'll want to rollback the firmware to .0. You can try to do 2.2 but it will fail every time because the device thinks you already have it, and overriding it will result in "firmware update failed".
Once you have .0 installed again, you can then update the firmware to 2.2.
After it is installed, take out the battery and boot into recovery mode. Choose REBOOT as your option and nothing else. This will rebuild the file library and complete your firmware upgrade.
Now you have a Zen Micro 2.2 that your COMPUTER will detect but your software will not. That said, you need to go to the download section and download the following software.
Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.20 for Creative MediaSource (9.72 MB)
Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.2
Creative Zen Micro Media Explorer Web Update
Creative MediaSource Plugin for PlaysForSure devices (version .00.8)
I reccomend installing then each one at a time, then rebooting as the system says and moving on to the next one.
When you are all finished, plug in your Zen Micro and it should be working. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi,
I also have the problem with the recognition of my zen micro by my PC.
It started when I tried to update to firmware version 2.2.02.
During the update-procedure... it would not go any further, so after half an hour of waiting I clicked on close.
Since then My pc does not recognize my zen!!
When I look at my info in the zen it says it has 2.2.02 installed.
I have tried the following already:
) Install firmware ..0 -> Did not work because it says: please attach zen.
2) ReInstall MediaPlayer 0 -> Did not work... still: "no machine attached".
3) Go to device manager and update driver -> Here it can see the zen and i updated the driver, but still..when I try to update the firmware back to ..0 it says: please attach zen.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Best regards,
Dennis
Just to eliminate one possibility: do you have Windows XP with Service Pack or 2 and Windows Media Player 0 installed on your computer? The reason I ask is that Version 2.x firmware will not work with other versions of Windows or WMP.

Zen Micro "Firmware Problem" - One solution and what to do BEFORE it happ

My Zen Micro 6GB recently croaked with the dreaded "firmware problem" message. After a call to support, I was told to send it in, however I was later able to connect to the unit and download new firmware.
Here's what happened:
In the middle of a playlist, the unit froze, displaying "firmware problem."
- I took the battery out and powered up in recovery mode, then tried both reboot and reforomat. No luck; Still got "firmware problem."
- I downloaded firmware updates, thn connected the unit to my laptop, which does not have MTP media explorer installed. The laptop does have Yahoo Music Engine and Windows Media 0, both of which are used regularly to copy music to device.
- The computer recognized the Zen Micro, but the firmware update did not run, saying it could not connect to the device.
- Retried several times, after reformatting, etc.
Now, here's what seemed to fix it
- Let the battery drain completely while in the unit
- Connected the Zen Micro to a computer with the MTP media explorer already installed. This is a system that is also used to regularly download music to the device.
- Allowed the battery to charge for an hour
- Started MTP media explorer, noticed that device went into "Recovery Mode"
- Ran the firmware upgrade and it installed.
This is conjecture, but it seems that the MTP media explorer must be running to launch the firmware upgrade, but you can't install MTP without a valid device connected. I don't know why this is - maybe some kind of copy protection scheme. I only had it installed on one of my computers because it seemed unnecessary and I hate loading software that I'm not going to actually use.
This is what worked for me. Hope it works for you.
I'm still really disappointed with Creative's warranty terms, lack of phone support past 60 days and failure of tech support to recognize the problem and offer a solution, but my unit is working again and I didn't have to send it back!

By "MTP media explorer", do you mean the MTP/PlaysForSure version of Zen Micro Media Explorer? The earlier versions say "(for MTP devices)"; the latest ones say "(for PlaysForSure devices)". Or do you mean the Microsoft "MTP icon" in My Computer, which should appear on all MTP-capable systems (including your laptop)?
I don't really think it's a DRM or copy protection issue; I think the "firmware problem" is wiping out the hardware code the firmware installer uses to confirm that the device is indeed a Micro instead of, say, an iRi'ver. I suspect ZMME is one of the alternate means it uses to confirm that a Micro is connected. (An issue for further testing is whether ZMME should be launched or just installed.) Firmware fails on all kinds of devices; I suspect this is just a peculiarity of Creative's MTP/Janus firmware installer.
This is likely to be a significant issue for the FAQs and/or Creative knowledge base. With a growing number of MTP/Janus players in the Creative lineup (Sleek, MicroPhoto, and shortly Touch & Xtra), it probably won't be just a Micro issue in the future.
Edit: I just read the other thread, and they seem to solve it by going to a system without Creative software and installing the ..0 firmware. So there seems to be two solutions for now:
If you don't have any Creative software installed, reload firmware and run the ..0 upgrade. (If you need 2.x firmware, then install the Creative jukebox driver and run the 2.20.05 upgrade; you can uninstall the driver afterwards. Sorry, but some of us need 2.x firmware.)</LI>
If you have the 2.x ZMME installed, open it, then reload firmware and run the 2.20.05 upgrade.</LI>

WRT54G huge problem NEED HELP! FAST!

I puchashed my WRT54G router about two weeks ago and connected it to my network and connected my xbox and xbox live to it. i noticed the live wasn'tworking as well as it should and found that i needed to open some NAT ports and update my firmware. While updating my firmware the interet page expired and i'd assume it didn't update, then i lost connection to live and the internet. It said on linksys advisor that the network had changed. So i tired to reinstall the router and it would'nt work. i made sure all the plugs were in the correct spot also, and even tried resetting the router but still no dice, and the big problem is i can't even view the router on that i.p website thing!!
p.s. i haveverizon internet and have a westell 1600 modem
if anyone can help me god bless you

verizon , ur modem is not really a modem . its a router/modem .
its already giving u an ip address in the same DHCP range as of the router . i.e: 192.168.1.xx
u need to just plug in ur router to computer , uninstall the easy link(wont be of any gud in verizon connection ,and its buggy as well ).
once router is connected to computer from port no.1.2.3or 4 ..any one .
Push the reset button on router for 30 seconds ..den unplug the power cable and plug in the power cable after 20 seconds.
then try to log into the routers web user interface - 192.168.1.1
see if it opens?
if yes
then ull find A local ip address option there- change it to - 192.168.7.1
and save settings .after saving the settings u might again kicked off from internet or set up web user interface.
then again , unplug the computer cable from router , and Power from router
wait for 20 seconds , now plug the verizon / westell into back of the router's into internet port as well.
power cycle.
lights should be like -power/wlan/1/internet - on router.
try to go online .
if it works ....let me know the status ?

WRT54G v5- problem updating firmware

alright, so I've been battling with my router a little while now. I've had it for a few months now, and randomly at about 11:30 a few nights ago, it just stopped connecting. I get Limited or No Connectivity whether I am trying to connected wirelessly or hardwired into the router. The only way I can access the internet is being hardwired into the cable modem (standard comcast motorola).
I have tried unplugging the router, doing a hard reset by holding down the cisco button, and restarting all the computers that are having a problem connecting. Nothing. It's still a brick. I think it was actually trying to connect to the wrong IP address, because the properties said nothing about 192.168.1.1
So, I read that there is a manditory firmware upgrade for the WRT54G v5. I went to the download page for the firmware, but it's trying to download a .bin file, rather than a .zip
WHAT? Is that a mistake? I can't do anything with it. Are there any mirror sites that anyone knows of with the .zip file so I can upgrade my firmware?

An update... I couldn't get the TFTP to work. However, if you hold the reset button for 30 sec and release, and then open a web browser and go to your ip http://192.168.1.1 It will have a page there for you to browse to your file that you want to upgrade with. I did this, then held reset button for 30 secs again. It took a little bit (minute maybe) for the device to fully boot up. Once it did I could get into the device for configs via http. You'll know when it's done booting because the orange wireless light will come on and the power light will stop blinking.
Hope this helps...
