[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
Hi all 1st post here and it's already a question so I apologize, , I am pretty new this stuff and recently started messing with my firmware and having a play around. Now the issue I have is I cannot connect the phone to pc by usb at all. I have tried all the usual methods of switching data cables, hard reset, enabled/disabled debugging. The only thing that it does is charge the phone.

On a seperate note, I think my current version of android is corrupt as when i hold down the power button, the only option I get is power off, various other things are not quite right either and would prefer stock to this. The device is rooted using universal androot. If anyone could help me return to stock or change my firmware would be greatly appreciated. Please bare in mind that I am unable to use usb, so kies and odin are just not an option. Many thanks

the information i have is.

PHONE - I5500LUYJP2

what rom did you put onto it?

Try this one : http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/(release)-motafoca-2-0-9/

:D
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
Many thanks for the reply, I was a little naive and just downloaded a random linked one :cool: Am I able to put the madteams on there just from sdcard?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Jordanooo:
If you mean install it from sdcard using clockworkmod?

Use this one : http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/(re-release)-motafoca-froyo-2-0-9-rom-clockworkmod-edition/

;)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
To be honest, I have been playing with something I know too little about and now i'm trying to fix my mess :) I have installed rom manager, and applied what i believe to be clockwork mod recovery supplied by rom manager, then added the linked file to my sdcard. When it tries to apply it as an update it says aborted as zip file is bad.

If i could use usb or odin to flash my phone things would be so much simpler, but as it stands I can't seem to do anything with just using the sdcard. I don't know if there is a complete idiots guide to this. But thanks to those who have tried to help so far.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] culkaran:
my phone too is not working via usb..i mean not detecting when to flash. Its working fine when in usb mode but when put to downloading mode,the pc dont recon the device..if yu find the solution plz rply .if i get it i will surely answer
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
I don't even get the dialog to connect by kies or mass storage. I plug my phone in and the only thing it does is charge. The computer doesn't even acknowledge there is a device connected, with that in mind i'm certain it is a problem with my phone. Possibly firmware related, or faulty usb phone port I would guess.

Which is why I really hope someone can come along and help with my previous problem of fixing things with sdcard only.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Jordanooo:
if you're wanting to use odin to flash, use that rom i said. download both files from the 'full edition' and extract them :)
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Jordanooo:
to flash:

1. download kies

2. download odin

3. download your files for the rom

4. put them all into odin

5. turn phone into download mode and connect to pc

6. wait for it to show up on odin

IF, your phone doesnt show up, try uninstalling kies, re-installing it, restarting your computer and try again

:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
I can't use odin, kies, or mass storage. My phone simply won't accept that it is attached by usb, I tried the original samsung data cable, as well as another I purchased new the mount dialog won't open when I attach a usb with the usual option of kies/mass storage so I know it isn't my pc. Everything I have done has been by removing the sdcard and using a card reader to put files on, then back to my phone.

I tried all the linked files so far, tried renaming them to update.zip on my sdcard, when I boot back to recovery and try to update from sdcard it says bad file, or failed. Also tried extracting the files and updating again no good. If there is no other options to force new firmware to install from sdcard I guess it is a new phone time which I wasn't keen on.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] culkaran:
Should be a rom.problem..flash other rom..if odin shows yellow light below com port in odin it means you are ready to go..flash another rom and see if it helps..but if yellow light doesnt display theb its data cable prob or usb port prob..
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Jordanooo:
So you already have clockworkmod installed?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
I used universal androot and I used an app called 'rom manager' which says it installs clockworkmod recovery. i havnt ever used odin to install.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Jordanooo:
sorry, i have been away. how did you install clockworkmod when our phone isnt supported by rom manager yet?
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Shady27:
It may not have installed correctly which is how I managed to ruin my phone, but according to rom manager it did install I never got the chance to check tho as my phone is now dead and hoping to get it fixed under warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500] Jordanooo:
you probably installed a version for another phone. If you can, boot your phone into download mode and install clockworkmod found here: http://www.madteam.co/forum/development/(development)-ltsecret-projectgt/

Then, hopefully your phone should be ok, but just to be sure, install the latest cyanogenmod (using clockworkmod).

Hope this helps

[T-Mobile LG G2x] swivellingkilla:
im a newb so my bad if ths sound kind of dumb ... but can i install the Xboarders56 tweaked 1.2.2 on my G2x or the gingerbead update V1.0.0 rom if im running on 2.2.2??????????? how and where do u get the right kernels as well..would appreciate the info :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
You can. Assuming you have CWM on your device (http://bit.ly/r119F8)

Different kernels do different things, for xboarders ROM there are techinally 2 kernels:

1. The one that comes with it when you flash (install) it: the stock gingerbread kernel

2. Faux's kernel; the latest version can be found at his twitter (http://bit.ly/pMb2kz) (if you don't want to dig through his twitter, latest version here http://bit.ly/qccGDt)

Faux's kernel allows overclocking which increases your devices processor speed. You'll want to install an application like setCPU to overclock.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mojorisin7178:
if you do the LG update you will get the new baseband which cant hurt then it is even easier to root and you get improved service I think.

[HTC EVO 3D] jeffbinder:
so is that method the only way to overclock?

I'm having a lot of trouble with set cpu and WTSB ROM on my 2.3.4 with 1.5 hboot. It worked for a while but since i went to WTSB it displays 1026mhz as my cpu speed and that's not even teh speed of stock.

I've reflashed twice now with the same luck.
[HTC EVO 3D] sairegsx:
@jeffbinder ....did you noticed the date of that last post??...as of your issue, does your kernel supports oc? i see you are using hboot 1.5, have you followed the ¨Specific¨ way to flash roms with kernels/kernels for us(hb1.5 users)??? what i mean by that is did you used the Image Flash GUI apk or the fastboot method?? because thats the only way(that i know of) hb1.5 htc unlock users can flash kernels...
[HTC EVO 3D] jclendineng:
Lol@this whole thing ;) u b trollin methinks
[HTC EVO 3D] jeffbinder:
I use fastboot on the computer. The rom flashed over fine and everything runs but now my speed just isn't up to stock anymore. It's so weird. The phone acts normal so i'm thinking maybe a bug in set cpu? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing it a few times.

I put it back to stock and everything is fine so i know my flash is good. This isn't my first rodeo with rooting. i do all my friends' devices and i never seem to run into any issues from samsung, motorola or htc until this new evo 3d i just bought. My old evo worked great.

BTW, the last post is only 6 months old. That's not "ancient" in the history of forums by anymeans. It was one of 3 threads in the last year about set cpu.

i wish i was trolling. I've been a member for just shy of a year but no need to post since none of this is all that complicated and i never ran into issues. I didn't have enough posts to reply in the ROM thread but i do now so i posted it to see if someone there might know what's up.
[HTC EVO 3D] sairegsx:
@jeffbinder

Got to SetCPU clear all and uninstall, reboot, install ¨SystemTuner¨, try that app for OC. See if that works better, most roms/kernels have been using a script for OC called OCDaemon(or something like that...am kinda of new to these terms/info).

Edit: Don't multi thread for the same issue, so it is easier to provide you with help.
[HTC EVO 3D] jeffbinder:
thanks!

i installed that program, it showed my cpu was set lower so i increased it to 1188mhz then i uninstalled that program and reinstalled set cpu. Now set cpu shows my 1188mhz speed.

I normally don't multipost but after almost a year i didn't have enough posts to post my problem in the dev forums for that ROM. sorry
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morespama5k:
Hi guys, really need your help!!! Please don't ban, really desperate here"""

Been using Custom ROMs since Omnia HD. Loved the work of cookers, never had problems, ODIN is just so easy.

Four days ago, tried to flash I9100 from Lite'ning v5 to 6.1. So, as recommended I wiped cach with CWM, and then done proper FORMAT.

Once I pressed it, format started but didn't finish - the phone restarted, and continued to restart - stuck with boot "S" animation - so can't boot into system.

Then, tried as suggested to install VANILA latest firmware - tried it - didn't work. Keeps freezing in the middle of the process in ODIN - or - it says FAILED. Now, i can't use CWM - if I press Volume UP +HOME+POWER, i get "Mobile phone with yellow Triangle with PC signs" - left to the right.

Updating to the VANILA software doesn't work, so as Lite'ning V6, or any other versions of it. Without CWM, i can't boot from SD Card to other cooked roms, so please, any ideas will be MUCH APPRECIATED !!!

Thank you all for your help !!!!!!!

Problem solved thanks to HotlipsH - I flashed the firmware he suggested and it worked !!!!!!!!!!!!!

On another note, my USB port is malfunctioning - it only works if bent at a specific angle. In order to give the phone for repair as it's still less then 3 month old, I need to get rid of manual firmware update counter (currently at 4). Can someone recommend a method to bring it back under warranty?

I am with T-Mobile contract in the UK, London. Thank you all again very much !!!! Love this forum ;']
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HotlipsH:
Try flashing a stock rom with Odin. As a second try stock rom with EXT4.pit file and Re-Partition option (You MUST have a pit file to use Re-Partition)

As long as the phone is detected in Odin your not bricked.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Why did you do a format??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morespama5k:
Thank you guys for your advice.

First of all, I formatted the phone, so that there won't be any of the apps installed, since it felt slower, so I wanted to reinstall only the ones I actually use.

Secondly, I did try to flash stock ROM with ODIN (but I am not sure if it was the stock one, or just one of the latest VANILA). It does recognise the phone, but when I flash with stock, it either freezes in the middle (waited for over 20min), or finishes with "completed - success 0 - failed - 1", and then when I reboot, it is stuck on the screen ""Mobile phone with yellow Triangle with PC signs" - left to the right. "

Any idea?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Would you like to define proper format ?? and how .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morespama5k:
What happened in a nutshell:

1) Via CWM, I wiped the cache (Dalvik and other - which are suggested by Lite'ning FAQ prior to upgrade).

2) Went to phones options and selected Format USB Storage (to get rid of all installed apps)

3) Once I clicked the Format in options, the phone restarted, and I could see Green Android figure with the white box - the screen stayed like is without changes for over 30min, so I restarted the phone.

4) Once the phone restarted, it stayed in Bootloop. It got to the "S" screen, and then restarts again to the same screen - over and over.

5) At this point, I could connect to Restore and Download Modes.

6) Then, I put it to Download Mode (Volume Down+Home+Power buttons), and and tried flashing to newest Lite'ning MOD V6 (from previously installed V5 prior to cache wipe and format) - no results - the phone screen stays in Download Mode and no progress details in ODIN (v1.85).

7) Tried flashing to Stock ROM, but I am not sure which one I tried, but it was the latest I could find - it had many files, I Googled and appropriately placed them (modem, pit, etc.) - as a result, phone screen remained on Download Mode screen with no changes, and on the PC (Win 7 x64) the ODIN recognised the phone (yellow square) and started the process but then froze mid-way - I waited fro 20min - nothing happened.

8) Disconnected USB cable, took out battery for 2min, and tried to flash other custom ROM from SD Card - but then, I couldn't log into recovery Mode any longer - by pressing Volume Up+Home+Power buttons, I only get "Mobile phone with yellow Triangle with PC signs" - left to the right. When I tried to reboot, then its the same screen. The Download Mode works though, and ODIN detect why phone.

I suspect that when I wiped cache with CWM, it deleted saved Stock ROM or kernels (no clue what it is), and now I am afraid to give to service since you can see in Download mode that the firmware was manually updated 4 times, so it voids manufactures warranty in the UK, at least.

Very worried, any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Dont think USB storage is the phone ??

Tried flashing to Stock ROM, but I am not sure which one I tried, but it was the latest I could find - it had many files

Stock rom is usually a single tar file .

Is recovery mode working ??

You can go to mounts and storage and format system data and sd card then flash stock rom single tar file via Odin .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morespama5k:
I will try with a single .tar file, and update the status, thank you for your help
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HotlipsH:
If you can still enter Clockworkmod recovery I would suggest that you enter Mounts and Storage Menu: -mount USB storage and hook your phone up to the PC to see the state of your internal fat32 sdcard.

If you can see the sdcard (might be empty) at about 12GB total size you know your sdcard is OK and you might be able to drag ROM/Kernel files onto it through Windows and then apply update/install zip through CWM Recovery.

If the sdcard partition does not mount proper you might be able to format it as a fat32 device through Windows and then try flashing a STOCK ROM through Odin with or without Re-Partition (need ext4.pit for re-partition).

Use THIS guide to propper flash through Odin.

I dont know where in the world you are but if your European try THIS ROM, it's the stock MultiCSC XWKF3
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morespama5k:
Thank you for your kind help!!

I cannot get to CWM, so can't do the first part of your suggestion.

I am based in the UK and got the phone in London via T-Mobile contract. I will try to flash via ODIN once I ma back home from work - already forgot how to use my old good undestructable Nokia 6300.

Will try and update status
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebarkh:
Make sure that the rom you're flashing is not corrupted (I mean files). Check hash of the files .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
If you can get into download mode (volume down, home, power) when phone is turned off, flash with odin, if not you may need a jig to get you into download mode.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
If the SGS2 cannot go into download mode, using a usb jig won't do anything.

The only reason why one cannot go into download is because the boot loader is damaged. Once the boot loader is damaged, the usb jig is not going to rebuild it.

Anyways, he can go into boot loader (download mode), and he can boot into clockwork recovery. So his system partition is corrupted. He need to make sure KIES is not running, double check in TASK MANAGER. If KIES is not running, then double check the tar file to see if it is corrupted or incomplete.

Use 7-zip to extract the tar file, if it cannot be extracted, the download was not completed or the tar file is damaged.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRuan:
This is not a rom issue, at least most times it's something wrong in the partition table of the mSD card or in one of the videos or photos stored in the card, you two things to do:

Remove everything from the card without formatting it and then try to use the camera, if it works then one of the videos or photos is the cause of the error.

Else format the card.

If, and only if, the above didn't work you wipe everything and reinstall the Rom.

If you install the Rom without doing this first you most likely will have the same problem!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hans Schmucker:
I'm not sure how these scripts determine which partition to use... have you tried partitioning through ClockworkRecovery? Maybe they need the partitions in a certain order or (more likely) some other requirement. CR would very likely take any such requirements into account.

P.S. Your English sounds fine to me, but this doesn't come from a native speaker either, so...
