Unbricking Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070

Hello Guys...

This is my first question to you about my bricked phone...

My phone Model No. is GT-I9070, Version: Ginger Bread 2.3.6, Kernel: DDLK2

I tried to root my phone and instead of rooting, I bricked it..

I used the following to root my phone:

1.Odin 1.83

2.GT-I9070_EUR_XX_8G_20111220_KL6.pit file

3.rootkernel.tar.md5 file

4.xxld1.tar.md5

5.ddlk2.tar.md5 (after trying the above file i.e. xxld1.tar.md5 file) which is not accepted at all by Odin..

I tried to root it by watching many videos in youtube and reading various posts and even 'xda-developers' posts regarding this phone model..

After trying for a while, I closed the Odin window and switched the phone off..

And when I restarted it, it displayed an error message on the screen saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again".

I also tried to unbrick it by using the following methods:

Samsung Kies: Firmware upgrade & initialisation

Odin 3.07: I9070DDULP8_I9070ODDULP8_INU.zip file

But failed to unbrick the phone.

So, I request you, developers and team at XDA to suggest or advice about unbricking the mobile.

Awaiting your reply(desperately):crying:

Thank You in advance.

ah man , don`t worry yet ,. i went there 3.4 times myself it happens but you must have been cautious bout rooting your phone , anyway here is what i`ll do if i were you ..

1... Grab the Stock ROM GB from SAMMOBILE INDIAN MAKE (m assuming you got indian made i9070 ,

2 ...Boot my phone in ODIN MODE

3 ... n boot it through odin thats all ..........

. it works 100% u don`t need root r kernel flashing .. anything for stocks

its that kernel file you booted thats messy i guess anyhw when you recover into ginger bread ,

you have to flash jelly bean then flash any ROM you like but after rooting n for that .. jus put root.zip file for s advnce in sd n flash it in recovery mode, for any other help you can find it here !

Hey! I installed VanirAOSP today.

I am using the default kernel that came with the ROM, 200mhz min and 1ghz max cpu freq. Interactive governor and Noop I/O scheduler.

I like the performance, but for some reason the phone stays awake the whole time when the screen is off. It stays awake even when in airplane mode and wifi is off. Wakelock Detector shows that the device does not enter deep sleep at all. I am attaching some screenshots with the post for reference.

Any idea whats going on? Any help is appreciated :)

EDIT: The phone can sleep now! Before sleeping yesterday night I changed some of the ROM settings and seems like the phone is fine now. Usually I switch off wifi when sleeping but yesterday I purposely left it on to see the battery performance. Over 6-7 hrs the there was a 7% decrease. I bet the battery performance will be much better with wifi off. Overall I am very satisfied with the ROM.

By the way, is there a way to add Zen I/O scheduler to the kernel? Also is there any kernel compatible with this ROM that has more I/O schedulers?

Known problem with i9070?

Hi there :)

I'm new on that kind of forums. I'm Mark, I'm from Poland :)

Yesterday i spent my whole day to flash my wife's phone, a galaxy advance i9070.

I've done everything exactly as shown on other forums, way to properly flash and install a custom rom.

I've tried 3 different custom roms, cyanogen 11, carbonrom and omnirom.

On every rom, everything works fine and blazingly fast, but got a recurrent problem, no phone network.

Did someone experienced that and what did I wrong? :confused:

change version

Hi,

I bought i9070 with ginger bread version and polish software. Just updated to jelly bean and was wondering if there is a way how to get rid of that polish version. I dont like it. The apps, the start up screen, everything. Im noob but if you could tell me just names of programs I could use to change it from polish version to.. idk , anything else, will be very glad for your help, thx
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Hi. There are 3 ways..

1. Download and flash (install) another unlocked firmware using Odin. You can look for one in samsung-updates.com. If your phone is i9070P then click here instead. You might also have to download your Polish carrier's firmware too - in case you lose your network access because of flashing a different firmware.

2. Root your phone. Its much easier in Jellybean. Then install a File Explorer with Root access. Now feel free to delete unnecessary apk files and other system files that were modified by your Polish carrier.

3. Root your phone. Install CoCore E Kernel and then install a custom ROM that is based on Samsung's Jellybean firmware. Alternatively, you can also flash other custom ROMs that are based on AOSP - this way, you can use KitKat or Lollipop.

Any solution?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VasarhelyiBA:
Hello there!

I have a question to ask about my Galaxy S Advance, so... Since the JB update (which was conducted by my Kies) my phone freezing... i guess 0.75 GB memory is inadequate for the processes. I got fed up, and decided to do something more than adjusting the usual development options. Yes, I'm perfectly aware of the dangers of rooting the phone... but I'll have to take the risk, if I want something to learn.

...but as soon as i decided to act, I got stuck just before the 2nd step. After reading a lot of stuff, I downloaded Odin, and then just for a test I flashed the provider-free JB firmware (XEH_I9070XXLQE) with it. Its works just as fine as the old firmware i had (provided by Telekom, Hungary).

Then I decided to rooting my phone. I found here an instruction on this topic which was pretty much on the spot. I have read it from top to bottom, and made sure I have all necessery things to go. ...but as I entered recovery mode I just couldnt find the ZIP I put on the SD-card just before the start. I can locate on the card using my computer, but the phone just unable to see.

Later I tried to fix this by installing CWM Recovery by ZIP, but the phone can not see that either. I tried to install CWM from Play, but in vain: the recent version of CWM does not support GT-I9070.

Then I had an idea, since I installed a provider-free firmware already with success. What if I replace the recent root-less firmware with the one which were actually rooted already? I found one which seemed to be almost perfect (irony), except two things: its for GT-I9070P, and somehow it has a provider (Vodaphone).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1985199

Now Im stuck surrounded with the fear of moving forward. I cant, and I dont want to brick my phone.

Why I cant see any .ZIP format in recovery? How can I make the phone to see them?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Backup the contents of your micro SD card and format it within your phone by using the Settings app. Now put back root.zip and give it a try. If that too didn't work then using a PC, try to delete your micro SD card's partition and then make a new one. Now promptly take it out and insert it on your phone - so that it can mount it. Once that's done, copy root.zip and give it another try.

Rooting Jellybean is pretty simple and it can be easily un-done by flashing stock JB firmware again using Odin (this will cause data loss though). But keep your phone rooted and install CoCore E kernel. That should boost its performance. Further improvements can be seen if you install custom ROMs or even upgrade to AOSP based ROMs like CM 11 or 12.1, etc.

Good luck! :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VasarhelyiBA:
I did the formating trick once, and didn't help... but finelly I managed to get thru this problem. I was in need of an bigger microSD, so I bought one. The phone has no problem recognising ZIP on this brand-new card.

Just for my curiosity I tried repartitioning the old one by the way. It didn't help at all.

Which ROM was the simplest you ever met? By simplicity i mean basic graphic (or even textbased controlls), and lower requirements.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
That's strange. Although I never actually tried it myself, I was told that re-partitioning should solve this issue. Oh well, I'm glad you were able to solve it by changing your micro SD card.

I am not aware of any simple, text based ROMs for our SGSA (or any other Android smartphones for that matter) but if you want a light ROM then try de-bloating your current ROM (i.e. delete every single system apps and .so files that you think are of no use to you - take precaution, though! Because deleting an important system file might softbrick your phone). Also, if you're using Samsung's JB firmware then give CoCore E kernel a try.

If you want an even lighter ROM, then try AOSP based ROMs. Just browse through our phone's Original Android Development and Android Development sections.

Possible hardware issue?

Guys, nowadays my phone randomly turns off (and stays off) for no reason. It does not play the turn off animation nor does it vibrate. It just mysteriously shuts down instantly as if it suddenly lost power. Any one have any idea why its happening? My battery isn't very old.. its only been a few months since I bought and started using it.

Also, sometimes this happens if my phone bumps into something or gets hit lightly.

Can it be a hardware issue?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TPD-21:
Hi.. Sami. Have you tried unplugging the external memory card first? Usually it can happen that has been caused by the corrupt. Try to turn on your phone again, without a memory card. See if it's still a case. If still. I think it's time you should bring it to the official samsung outlets to get their analysis by authorized technicians. That is if you still love your janice.

Thank you guys for your extremely helpful replies. Surprisingly my phone didn't shut down (yet) since I posted about this issue here. If I encounter again, I'll give them both a try and see if it fixes the issue.

I would've never guessed that a memory card could cause the phone to shut down. I will try your suggestion once it happens again. :cyclops:

Yes, I still love my Janice but I don't think its worth it to spend money by taking it to a technician. I'm honestly waiting for a valid excuse to get a new phone, so a hardware issue would be perfect. :silly:

It never happened when I was using the old battery. It did not happen when I first changed the battery. It only started few weeks ago. I will try your suggestion once it happens again. :good:

What was your experience going back to using GingerBread?

Did any one of you guys go back to GingerBread after having tried official JB and KK roms? I tried some KK roms and always kept coming back to official JB because it was more consistent and bug free. Although, it is consistently slow as well. Which is why I am thinking of giving GingerBread a try.

But I wanted to know what your experiences were going back to GingerBread. Was the phone noticeably smoother in basic tasks (Browsing, Whatsapp, Camera, Clash of Clans, etc.)?

Would love to get your opinion on reverting to GingerBread.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enkflr:
I've tried once, it works quite good on general usage(web browsing, messages, camera, calls, etc); sorry but didn't tried any games.

It miss some features(xposed helps partially but note that it's not official supported on gingerbread), support for some apps and probably patches.

Short answer; it works good if you don't mind being on an old version.

Personally I prefer jelly bean or KitKat ROMs, some of them don't have any "important" bugs or lag constantly...

Anyway, that's just my opinion, the best way to know if you like it is trying by yourself; just make a backup of your current choice an if you don't like it move back

Hello everybody!

I know this is a stupid question but here I go:

It is possible that my rooted i9070 running VANIR resurrection can connect to an /ac wifi network? I'm asking because recently I changed my home router and it has /ac capabilities. So I set up the 2.4Ghz b/g/n network with an SSID and the 5Ghz /ac network with a different SSID. And the phone sees and connects (and works!) to both of them... wtf?

I have not any other device (phone/tablet/etc) that can see the /ac network. Just the i9070. The rest of my devices see connect to the b/g/n network.

How is that possible? (I'm not joking)
