[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Im on AOKP Milestone 6.

backstory:

Something happened to my microsd card while on vacation. I get that notification where it says "SD CARD IS BLANK or HAS UNSUPPORTED FILES." so first of all FML, there goes most of my vacation pictures and videos. Second when you click on the SD CARD is blank, it asks if you want to format it. So I chose that option... only thing is... it formatted my EMMC FML x2 there goes the rest of my vacation photos + my game save states from my emulators (ahhh the humanity!).

Anyways, beware when you get that problem.

So does anybody know a GOOD files recovery program? I tried out Easeus data recovery, but it's... okay... looking for alternatives right now.

Thanks in advance.

In my lessons learned, MiniTool has never failed me. EXCEPT if the device has been written with zero bytes. (This is a super wipe to prevent data from being restored)

I am on LG1 stock ROM, rooted with arcadia3go's debugfs attack (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1827518). Root process worked and I installed CMW at the end of the steps.

I further verified that CMW (version 5.8.4.5 from that post) worked after the immediate reboot, and I was able to make a Nandroid backup of my phone.

What's strange was that, after some time when I needed to flash a mod or just to make a further nandroid backup, I booted into recovery mode only to find that the the stock 3e recovery was back and CWM was lost. This happened twice so it is not by accident. The only solution to me is to rerun ADB command dd to re-instate CWM, workable but annoying.

Any idea?

further info: at 3e recovery screen, under the normal menus, there is something like:

#MANUAL MODE#

-- Appling Multi-CSC...

Applied the CSC-code : ATT

Successfully applied multi-CSC
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Gadgetz:
No idea...what I would do though is Odin back to stock and then root and install CWM via mrRobinsons method in the dev forum. It's worked out for me perfect. The only thing different is that i'm running v6xxx CWM now instead of v5xxx
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] krips2003:
Did you try going to recovery using terminal emulator? Try doing so if are rooted.

Open the terminal emulator then type su

Now type reboot recovery.

See if it still takes you to the 3e recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rivendell:
after seeing 3e recovery using keys (Vol-Up+home+power), I tried adb shell->su->reboot recovery but it still took me to 3e recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rivendell:
The reason i used debugfs attack for root is that I didn't have to re-install/configure all apps already installed. I have TiBu but still have some doubts about restoring with user app+data.

I guess what you suggested will work, I just want to see if there is an easy to solve my problem.

btw, if you could point me to v6xxx, I will try that version.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Gadgetz:
If you just odin the root injected LG1 via mrRobinsons method everything will remain as far as apps and data.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rivendell:
Found the problem and solution

I think I may have found the problem and solution to this CWM lost issue: while I was flashing CWM to the last version as of writing, 6.0.1.2, I noticed that at adb command "reboot recovery" after the "dd" command, it did reboot into the 6.0.1.2. Then when I click "reboot normal", the next screen alerted me something like "flash stock recovery at reboot" and so I selected the default "Disable recovery flash", and then after that, the CWM recovery seems to stay.

In short, after manually installing CWM with ADB command, I had to immediately reboot into recovery (with ADB) and run reboot normal once to disable the stock recovery, and that's the solution.

Just want to share it, though none of those posts about installing CWM mention that at all.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunc:
Hi - I was running CM10 but have been stuck at the logo since I tried to install CM10-20120817-NIGHTLY-mb525.zip (I don't think mixing it with a change of Vsel settings was a good idea).

Now I can get to the Bootloader 9.1 screen and can see RSD Lite V5.6.4 on my laptop.

When I try to load 4.5.2-109-DHT-22-fixed.sbf I says the phone is being rebooted but only the Motorola red logo shows and I get the message 'Please manually power up this phone'.

From here I've tried mushing the volume rocker and wiping everything - and installing the latest build CM10-20120825-NIGHTLY-mb525.zip but every time it just stalls.

I'd be very grateful for any help to get my Defy back up and running! Thanks
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MotorolaDefyLuke:
what did you actually flash with that fixed sbf btw?

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

your best off going back to 2.2 if you can downgrade reflash 2.2 then reinstall 2ndinit and then cm10
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunc:
Thanks - sounds a good idea. Will 2.2 still be on the phone or do I download it?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MotorolaDefyLuke:
well firstly download the 2.2 sbf for defy of your choice then simply flash it via RSD lite
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brunc:
Unfortunately I seem to have chosen the wrong Froyo - a T-Mobile one... seemed like a good idea at the time.

Anyway, I can't see the Defy in RSD Lite now and in fact the only sign of any connection with the computer is that the white LED comes on sometimes.

I can't get the Bootloader to show any more either so I may have hit the end of the road.

Any ideas? Thanks!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kalyan007:
Sorry but I had similar issue earlier and I thought I bricked my phone for life but did you try clicking volume down and volume up button at the same time?

This should show the battery status and you should be able to flash an SBF of your choice normally.

I had some time ago similar problem like you seem to have phone just stuck at Red M logo.

I had to flash the same SBF again and this time it worked.

The first boot takes longer but we must be patient and not unplug the phone from PC.

Just sharing my own experience and it may not be really helpful.

I hope you get your phone fixed as I have experienced the frustration of holding a bricked phone and for few hours I thought I went through he'll as I almost encountered a dead end.

Good luck.

Now I am running CM10 and runs quite smooth.

Hello to answer your question is there a H where the 4g should be if so that's the same as 4g and also are running a custom Rom or is it the stock Rom that came with the phone more info is needed

Hi,

I installed the CM10 rom and it has semi bricked my system. It boots and gets stuck at the android tunnel animation.

I tried recovery using fastboot and cwm 5.8.3.1 loads fine, but even after installing the CM10 rom again no luck.

I have tried clearing cache, dalvik cache etc. with no luck.

When i connect to the computer adb doesn't recognize the device adb devices, returns nothing. How do i restore my tablet? Is there a tool which will let me copy a new rom and let me flash the system again?

any help is appreciated and badly needed.

Thanks.

So i've heard that the S-AMOLED and S-AMOLED Plus technology has "Perfect" Blacks! Like the Blacks don't even "Light-up".

Is it true? Or is it just a marketing thing? :/

Turn off all the lights in the night and then view some BLACK picture. U'll see that the Blacks are kinda "Greyish" :/

And there are some pixels that are perfectly black.. but they're just Random... :/

this issue is quite common, even on iPads, Motorola etc...apparently it is the adhesive within the layers of the AMOLED that causes an "ink" mark when screen displays black images within a dark environment...nothing is actually wrong with your scren, mine has 2 very small dots...while my other friend has had his replaced because the issue was far more prominant...so there is a possibility of claiming warranty? but this will depend on the country/retailer/etc...but always worth giving it a shot if you cant stand this issue...but yes, earlier batches, the issue was far more obvious...but later ones are better but information from other XDA threads suggest that you WONT find a unit without any marks...period.

On the cable of the earphone is a button to stop the music or somthing. When I

push it, the sound will be much better. I have tested the earphones on my laptop,

there is no problem with the sound.

Usually the sound should be like that when I hold the button on the cable.
