Need help Co star won't register!

Post by Dejuanxg™ »

Hey I got a bad co star that won't register at all and when I try to update it all I get is a subsystem failed to instiliaze try again error. Is there anyway i can update it through the usb port in the back because right now my netflix won't work period and I don't have much use for it without netflix and a factory reset threw the button on the bottom and threw the setting menu does nothing to help me.

Can you get an adb logcat of what goes on when you try to update? That might help narrow down what's exactly wrong.

You can't, what you need to do is set up adb on your computer, connect to the Costar (over ethernet or wifi), and then issue the "adb logcat" command.

See: http://www.gtvhacker.com/index.php/Step ... lling_Apps

Instead of step #6, type "adb logcat" instead!

Also note: On the GTV, Settings -> Applications -> Development, enable Remote debugging, and insert your local IP in the field below that one.

You don't need the entire SDK installed - just having adb will usually do the trick!

ok I can't get it to show the co star or connect to it I had the adb installed and I'm sure of it because I can list my phone when I do the adb devices command.
