[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Dam thing I honestly think its something to do with your internel nand cause its not writing non of the commands on the phone and the kernel is the problem did you try the kernel cleaner I posted then try flashing abyss kernel via Odin

If nothing else works then may need to repartition the internel memory via odin

Hi mate any luck yet been searching think its something to do with your internel nand or baseband did you have a efs backup at all or a jig USB also truly one of the recover from soft brick attempts form the s2 fourms

no luck yet . iam still sarching. i dont have efs backup or jig. i will try make jig by myself as last option. do u think its worth? since i can enter download mode?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Maybe try installing abyss kernel 3.9 then just reboot cwm (advance,reboot recovery) see if you now have red pill recovery installed if so then do all wipes including mounts and storage and try to flash a stock rom via Odin that way
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
i tried but didnt get the new recovery. something happening while device boot. need to clean the boot area i think.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Mmm not sure how to do that I'll take a look around see what I can find what rom was you on when you flashed the bad kernel

it was stock rom jpkj4 GB 2.3.5 ...

the link for frameware for galaxy s2? am i correct?

if internal nand currupted, how the device run ? and system behave normal? and if i save any file inside folder it will not deleted after restart. maybe, i dont know. i ordered jig today, do you think it will help?

thank you again mate
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Hi mate ya its for the Samsung galaxy 2 just thought you could replace the files with note ones and a jig will just be able to reset counter and remove triangle so if worse comes to it you could return to Samsung for repair and its a good thing with you been on a stock rom and not a custom rom

Its strange never come across anything like it a fully working phone just doesny save nothing you do its weired
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
no luck mate..no luck. even with understanding what is the issue.

:cool:Hi mate I wish I knew honest I wish I could help bit I'm out of ides I've been looking but nothing it sounds to me that you may have courupted your internel nand which is a new motherboard job :( try to get your counter reset and send it back to Samsung I can almost guarantee they will replace the motherboard cause its behond repaire
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
hi mate

i googled for NAND corruption case in general and noticed that most of the devices have non ODIN response or stuck while the memory corrupted.

in my case everything working.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Mmm its weird then isn't it have you tried doing it from a different PC are you using the original cable and remove any SD card in the phone
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
yes. multi machines , multi cables , no sim or SD card attached. same

i deleted the partition using paragon and now windows show no sd card. but the system running and can access the memory with no issue.

i have no choice mate than trying and keep trying any idea.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Se the problem isn't your internel SD card like you say you can access that easily its the internel nand where the rom and system lie I'll keep looking mate

We need to somehow format and rewright internel nand but its risky and a pain
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
exactly dear. its on the system use part. its the boot area which Samsung So foolishly made it.

i read somewhere here that Samsung devices has boot and kernel in the same block.

yes. risky and pain but the only way. let the device be broken better than being Paralyzed and simi alive:D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Lol correct way of putting it:p right the only way I can think of a repartition and a boot loader flash in Odin also pit file
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
so why my mobile did that :p so they put it seperatly :D

i tried the pit through ODIN and its done successfully but no change:D

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brockyneo:
Aaahh the only thing is to reset your counter and send back to Samsung while you still have a stock rom installed cause there nothing else that I'm aware of that can try that's not going to fully brick your phone anyway if you have a jig reset the counter I can almose bet my right ball sack that they will replace the motherboard :D

Before you do I will ask one of my good friends for any ideas nut I think its a Samsung repair service road unfortunately
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamaljmys:
i think that also. i ordered jig but it need at lease one week to arrive. but even reset the counter need to flash a boot which not happend in my device.

do you aware about tool to check the NAND?

Hello Guys !

I wanna try some custom ROM so before doing that want to backup my Kernel & ROM. If anything gone wrong so I can revert back to original ROM.

My Cell details:

Xperia Arc S

LT18i

Android Version 2.3.4

Baseband Version -64

Build number

4.0.2.a.0.62

Locked bootloader

& unrooted.

Please someone guide me....

Thanks in advance...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
If your bootloader's locked then you can't back up. You can only reload(repair)it from PC companion.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShresthasR:

Ok done unlocked bootloader.

Then advice the further steps...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amulbaby:
XPERIA CWM AUTO INSTALLER

download this app and install CWM recovery on ur phone...

Then reboot ur phone into recovery mode...

TO DO THIS, LONG PRESS BACK BUTTON WHILE THE PHONE RE-BOOTS

(OR)

KEEP TAPPING VOLUME DOWN BUTTON...

After it boots into recovery, go to BACKUP & RESTORE and Select Backup...

This will create a NANDROID BACKUP on your phone exactly as it is...including apps n contacts n all other data..

you can find it in SDCARD/Clockworkmod/Backup/

Good day...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
If you wanted to take a backup without installing CWM you can use fastboot to boot (not flash) a kernel that has CWM built in.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShresthasR:

EDIT:

I tried that steps but it will works only on rooted phone ..., can not enter in to recovery mode by pressing any key, it normally boots up and appear home ...

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShresthasR:
Here is the point I was looking for these alternative . . .

I have STOCK ROM with 4.0.2.a.0.62, actually I want to backup these stuff, I read about that downgrading via flashtool and root, if I flashed via flashtool that STOCK ROM will wipe...

Anyway here what I did to make a copy of my stock firmware & upgraded to ICS firmware & rooted.

Repaired my phone using Sony update service to download and backup STOCK firmware

Flashed with flashtool official firmware LT18i 4.1.A.0.562 NCB Icecream Sandwich Official
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
First you need to download a kernel that has cwm built in, I would search for recoveryARC.IMG then you also need fastboot from the SDK.

All you would do is connect your phone I'm fastboot then run in a command prompt fastboot boot recoveryARC.IMG. Your phone would then boot using that kernel and you can enter cwm by pressing the vol down several times. This process wouldn't flash your kernel only load it temporarily.

I would try and find a guide about them but I'm on my phone.

Sorry just noticed you've already done it, congrats enjoy ics.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShresthasR:
Thanks bro ...

I already upgraded, anyway I want to know the process, you mentioned here this process wouldn't flash kernel only load it temporarily, I am confused... :confused:

Could you describe in details .. ? Actual what happens if we flash recovery img...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartarse93:
Well you can use fastboot to install the kernel which overwrites the previous one, or you can use it boot the kernel which just sends the kernel to the phone which the boots and temporarily uses the kernel. However when the phone next shuts down it will return to normal use.

If you flash a kernel it writes the .IMG to the boot partition. So if I wanted to use a kernel that stayed between reboots I would use 'fastboot flash boot kernelname.IMG'

However if I was running stock I could use recoveryARC.IMG with cwm, and do fastboot boot recoveryARC.IMG then run update.zip as normal. Then all you have to do is reboot, you'll be back to stock but the update would still be installed.

Sorry if it's not cleat, the best I could do on my phone.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] King of Procrastinators:
Please elaborate on backing up STOCK ROM

Can you please give me details on you did this? It is precisely what I want to do (ie. Backup the stock carrier rom on my Xperia Arc before flashinging an old ROM in order to root it).

ROM backup OK; How to take backup of Kernel

I am using Sony Xperia Ray ST18i

used it for a year with stock kernel and ROM

rooted it long ago, but was afraid of custom ROMs

last month I unlocked bootloader, flashed ROM and custom ROM (beanstalk 4.3.075), enjoying it but obviously not so stable like stock

Now if I wish to move back to my stock kernel and ROM

what steps are required.

I suppose

1. flash the stock kernel

2. restore from backed up ROM (I do have nandroid backup of stock ROM)

but how to achieve the step 1, as I learnt nandroid backup doesn't backs up ROM.

My collegue is having same phone still on stock, Can I use his phone somehow to extract kernel. I searched and found a zip to be used through CWM which backs up kernel it was meant for some samsung phone I tried but failed.

Thanks in advance.

Do I need to supply some more information to get help?

You really don't need to spam this into every single development thread, it isn't anything new. This method was posted in the "How to fix your battery life" thread that was originally posted about in Nov/Dec.

You should note that this 'solution' only works until you run the battery low. People who have this issue often have their battery drop 3-10% very quickly when their battery gets low (for me its at about 30-35%). The battery will then only charge to 100% minus the percent that the battery dropped very quickly when you ran it low. Deletion of the files listed in your original post needs to be done again to re-fix the problem.

So yes, this works, though its a bandaid, not a solution, and it doesn't need to be posted in every dev thread. Just ask KennPenn for a sticky.
