JVM Error 102 - Blackberry Bold 9700

I recently has an issue with my blackberry 9700 Bold. I found that my device not coming up properly and throwing an exception JVM Error 102 with a small reset button. If you click on reset button you land on same page. I found that one of the .Cod file got corrupted and the only way to recover it to wipe all your data and reinstall again.

Here are some common JVM error and their explanations:
102 -- Invalid code in file system The system has checked the .COD files in the handheld for modification, and determined that there is a problem with one or more .COD files. If all loads fail, it could indicate a build process error where there was a problem signing the codfiles. If some user action to the device caused this problem, the reset cycle will be continuous since the code in the filesystem has been corrupted. The only recovery method is to wipe the device and restore a new system


506 Uncaught Exception An uncaught Java exception was thrown in the initial VM Java thread thus ending the only live thread in the system. The eventlog contains the traceback for the exception.


507 Unsatisfied Link A dependency on a .COD file could not be satisfied because the .COD file is missing.

508 Invalid object A problem has been detected with a debugger command to the VM.

509 VM_PPO_INFINITE_LOOP: infinite loop in PPO phase of GC The maximum iteration count for the PPO phase of a GC must be the maximum number of file handles in the system. This error indicates that the iteration count has exceeded that count and hence there is a flaw in the PPO loop or a corrupted file system. The extra hex integer in the error string is the flash id of the current record where the infinite loop was detected.


What it comes down to is that the JVM 102 error means that a .cod file on your phone seems to be corrupt, so the phone refuses to load it. Why wipe everything for one bad file? You might not need to!

1. Download JL_Cmder
2. Connect your phone to your PC using the USB cable that came with it.
3. Run JL_Cmder and select option 2 (event log)
4. Scroll to the bottom of the log and look for "JVM Error 102." The line before it should tell you exactly what file is causing the error. It might look something like this. Save the file name; you will need it later.
5. Go to Start > Run, and type "cmd" then press Enter.
6. Change directory to the JL_Cmder installation folder.
   e.g., type: cd "C:\Program Files\JL_Cmder\" and press enter
7. Type the following command to remove the offending file:
   javaloader.exe -u erase -f FILENAME
   where FILENAME is the name of the .cod file.
8. Disconnect your phone from your PC and restart it.

This might not be a permanent solution, but it should at least let you boot up your Blackberry so that you can back up all your data before reinstalling everything.

Another Approach is:
1) Open web browser and type www.att.com/bbdownloads
2) Select you handset device from the drop-down and click next , you will seesoftware for Bold will appear at the bottom.
3) Install As per the region you located.
4) Connect your phone to your PC using the USB cable that came with it.
5) Run the  loader.exe which by default after installation lies at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader.
6) while installing you have to make sure to select a radio button, which asked to you wipe your data ( I am assuming that you take continuously back up and you have your backup copy handly ).
7) If you get an exception , you need to repeat same by removing the battery.

After following above step I am able to recover my Blackberry properly.

Diwali explained by Indian Origin boy born in USA

A young second generation Indian Origin boy in the US was asked by his mother to explain the significance of "Diwali" to his younger brother, this is how he went about it...

 

"So, like this dude had, like, a big cool kingdom and people liked him. But, like, his step-mom, or something, was kind of a bitch, and she forced her husband to, like, send this cool-dude, he was Ram, to some national forest or something.... Since he was going, for like, something like more than 10 years or so..... he decided to get his wife and his bro along... you know...so that they could all chill out together. But Dude, the forest was reeeeal scary shit... really man.....they had monkeys and devils and shit like that. But this dude, Ram, kicked with darts and bows and arrows... so it was fine.

 

But then some bad gangsta boys, some jerk called Ravan, picks up his babe (Sita) and lures her away to his hood. And boy, was our man, and also his bro, Laxman, pissed... all the gods were with him... So anyways, you don't mess with gods. So, Ram, and his bro get an army of monkeys... Dude, don't ask me how they trained the damn monkeys... just go along with me, ok....

 

So, Ram, Lax and their monkeys whip this gangsta's ass in his own hood.... Anyways, by this time, their time's up in the forest..... and anyways... it gets kinda boring, you know... no TV or malls or shit like that. So,they decided to hitch a ride back home.... and when the people realize that our dude, his bro and the wife are back home...they thought, well, you know, at least they deserve something nice... and they didn't have any bars or clubs in those days... so they couldn't take them out for a drink, so they, like, decided to smoke and shit... and since they also had some lamps, they lit the lamps also....so it was pretty cooool.... you know with all those fireworks.... Really, they even had some local band play along with the fireworks... and you know, what, dude, that was the very first, no kidding..., that was the very first music-synchronized fireworks... you know, like the 4th of July stuff, but just, more cooler and stuff, you know. And, so dude, that was how, like, this festival started."

The mother fainted...

What do women want? Reservation or equality?

India has lots of issue as Lalu said like price rise, unemployment, growing regionalism and threat to national security. I am not against the bill, can any confirm me whether the bill will be useful to handle the above serious issue what we are facing today. Second thing whether this will increase the Women’s presence in Indian polities? It will only increase the number of Women representative in assembly or parliament.

But why we can not imagine we can see more Rabri Devi like rubber stamp. I think the Women having real capability must get chance and opportunities to enter the assembly or parliament. Why we are forgetting India have some grate Women leader like Indira Gandi, Jayalatila, Mamata Banarjee, Basundra Raje, Shila Dekhit, Mehemuda Sahid , Meera Kumar , Susama Swaraj and many more. Most important all above leaders are in top label post in their party and holds top label position in Indian Democrat. I am totally against any label of reservation in any form. If you want to improve them, then spends your attention on their study and their growing up. Please my dear politician stop vote polities and abolish any form reservation either in employments, higher studies and house of representative.

I am all for women empowerment, but Reservation doesn't Solve any problem and It's a shame that we always look for shortcuts instead of sorting out the real problem in this case is giving tickets to the right candidates women or men, reservation is like denying or rather depriving a more capable person of its deserving position. we have reservation acts in the education system , reservation in medicine , Engineering, IIM , putting on future of our country on toss and making things worse.

What do women want? Reservation or equality?
It is their choice or something else is driving this , I feel its more like "better halves-in-power".
What's your take in this ?

Stupid Common Man

I am someone who is afraid to get into a bus or a train these days.
I am someone whose wife thinks is going to war..
.. while I am actually going to my work.
She is afraid that I may not return.
She calls up every two hours. To find if I had my tea.
To find if I have lunched.
Actually she wants to find out whether I am still alive.
I am someone who sometimes gets stuck in the rain or in the blasts.
I am someone who suspects the person carrying a rosary.
I am also the one who is afraid to grow his beard and wear a cap.
If I buy a shop I am afraid to choose a name as..
.. someone might see the name and burn it during the riots.
No matter which two parties are fighting..
.. I am the first one to get killed.
You must have seen a crowd. Choose a person from it.
I am that person.
I am just the stupid common wanting to clean his house.
Do you want me to live my life and die every moment of it?
I just did not get the time to do it.
In the process of earning my daily bread this work got neglected.
But it’s better late than never.
last time they were killed in a train..
.. this time it will be somewhere else.
They will keep on killing until we learn to give a solid reply.
has nothing to do with my religion.
There is.
I told you, I am just a stupid common man.

Doesnt it sound so much more true!
