[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssCISengineer:
Well I am getting a message similar to the one in the title. I just got this galaxy tab p5113 model a couple days ago and decided to go ahead and get root access as well as flash cwm recovery. Everything went well.....gained root access...bbooting into cwm recovery with no problems..

I went and rebooted the phone after all operationswere complete and I found the boot logo to be missing, and in it's place is green text that says "espresso10.jpg draw failed" .....

Now I have searched and not found a comprehensive answer or very many threads containing much useful information.

In an attempt to fix the problem I subsequently downloaded the stock p5113 firmware and flashed via Odin.....still showing the error message on boot.

This one has really stumped me!

What files could possibly have been corrupted and why wouldn't the flashing of the stock firmware fix and repair the problem.....I would assume that it would have replaced the missing files....
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3113owner:
First, did you factory reset then flash the file through Odin? Does the tablet boot up?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssCISengineer:
Yes sir the tablet boots, and I did reset and flash in Odin.

please remember to thank me for e-peen points!

Sent from a Galaxy Nexus between here and there.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p3113owner:
My suggestion is to reset and flash in Odin again. Try downloading the stock ROM file again as the one you have may be corrupted.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detninrod:
I'm having the same issues as the OP. Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I've been searching everywhere and I can't find a fix for this. I've attempted everything stated above and still no fix. I've heard that flashing the stock param.lfs would fix this issue however I can't find the stock param.lfs anywhere. If anyone happens to have it, I'd appreciate it if they could share it out.

I'm sorry man, I'm not great at this. What should I do with this? Actually, what I should say is what should I do with the mmcblk0p4.raw file? Is this my param.lfs?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ketut.kumajaya:
1. The first command to know which the PARAM block device

2. The second to dump the param block device to a file

3. The third, I show you I found the logo file inside /dev/block/mmcblk0p4, my device P3100

The "#" prefix mean I run a command as root.

Open Terminal Emulator or over "adb shell", and then type "su" (without quote). Issue all my above command, write the result here. Compress your param dump file and upload it here. Probably a recovery override your param partition.

This is what I get after running the first command. I then dumped the param block device to file and then ran the check on it.

u0_a29@android:/ # strings /sdcard/mmcblk0p4.raw | grep espresso
# strings /sdcard/mmcblk0p4.raw | grep espresso

Here is the resulted file. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detninrod:
I also misread OP's original post stating they have a P-3113. Mine is a P-5113 however I have done the exact same steps as he did.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ketut.kumajaya:
Are you sure zipped the correct dump file? What I have got is empty mmcblk0p4.raw prefixed by your command!
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detninrod:
I did something dumb and I'm not going to admit to it.. but I did end up fixing the problem. I found a .tar.md5 that can be flashed with Odin for the P-3110. I put it on my ExtSDcard and flashed my param partition using it and it fixed my issue. I got the .tar.md5 from here. I just flashed my param partition, I didn't use it to flash anything else. I really wouldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't have a P3110, but I just ended up getting lucky. Thanks for your help ketut.kumajaya, I do appreciate your assistance with this.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ketut.kumajaya:
The file name param.lfs? Mind to share here? 637MB is too big for 8MB data :D
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detninrod:
lol it's not actually mine but I'm sure it should be fine (I found a tutorial somewhere out on the interwebs). It isn't just the param.lfs, it's the FULL flash for the P-3113. I used Mobile Odin, chose the param partition, chose this image, and flashed it. It will only pull the param.lfs from the image if you only choose the param partition.

I would have used the P-5113 image to reflash my param partition, but it doesn't included it for some reason :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detninrod:
Here's the actual param.lfs. I guess it would be a bit easier to manage then copying the full image over to an SD card.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GiggedyGoo:
Just flashed this on my 3110, fixed the logo, nice one, cheers :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detninrod:
Nice! Glad to hear it!

Thank you !!!

Just flashed my GT-P5100 and everything got fixed :D

Device have now right bootlogo and right charge logos without any jpg drawing errors, also my P5100 now also boots right in android instead first boot going to cwm.

I used mobile odin and used that param.lfs and now everything is normal :good:

THANK YOU !
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssCISengineer:
Ive tried this and I get "installa5ion aborted" in cwm when I try to flash param.zip file....this is so frustrating
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssCISengineer:
OK well I finally got around to trying this again and.....it worked. So this is a confirmed fix for anyone that has this problem. Just use mobile Odin and flash param.LFS file on the previous page an you will has restored the first boot image that says galaxy tab 2 . Jut make sure to flash it in the param section not PDA or anything like that.

Awesome good job guys thanks a lot this has bugged me forever now...
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smartdetodos:
I confirm that is working fine in GT-P3100.

I did crashed the logo when I did a customized bootanimation and I did recovered the stock.

I unziped the param.zip, and used Mobile ODIN to flash It. You can use the ODIN desktop version too.

Recovery fine and smooth.

Thanks

I rooted my phone using Odin and have CWM V5.8.1.3 touch installed. I am running CM10 Alpha2 and want to install Alpha 3 but the install fails and according to what I've read I need to upgrade to version CWM6011-1 skyrocket zip. CWM V5 was a tar file and CWM6011-1 is a zip file. Im assuming I cant use odin to install V6011-1. What installation method do I use? Is the V6011-1 zip flashable from the sd card? Please point me in the right direction.

Just foe the record in case someone searches:

Install goomanager from market > open > menu > install openrecovery script

Thats for twrp open sourced based cwm.

For cwm 6.0.1.1 simply flash the downloaded zip in the current recovery like u would any rom, and when u reboot, it will be present

Ok, so i was trying to use one of the apps on the market to change my DPI. I was running nova launcher (i know stock has issues) but after reboot nothing is happening, its stuck on that Asus boot screen... Any ideas?

Is there a way to force a reset or something or should i just take it back to bestbuy and have them replace it?

Decided to just take the sucker back to BB and let them deal with it. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] LukBoy99:
Ok guys this problem is really weird and I don't think anybody got it,when I switched from link2sd to native a2sd on my minicm7 2.2.1 naa-14 I noticed that some of my apps and some system apps like google play went missing even my theme went missing sometimes annother thing I noticed is that in mounts and storage in cwm only sdcard is mounted rest isint,,,any idea how to fix this?thanks. All
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] penthaler:
You didnt change to native a2sd, but to only a2sd.

Native - stores apps on sd card /.android_secure folder

a2sd - stores apps on automatically mounted EXT3/EXT4 partition

Yeah, they will be missing and you cannot change it. I used link2sd but didnt work for me. So I tried a2sd and EXT3 partition (with swap partition) and (my god) it worked for whole week, but one day my phone restart itself in wrong way (not full restart) and every app were gone, although they still were on EXT3. Solution for restoring them? Bad news, there is, but no one can tell it. You can restart round and round your phone, you can move or reinstall your apps, but the bug will be worse and worse... hours of hard work to clean this mess...

Format card, wipe data and restore backup of system (etc) without EXT3. Hope you done at least one backup. Or start from scratch (but still NO EXT PARTITION!)

Or if you find solution, let me (and other people) know.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] x10man:
By default in CWM, only /sdcard mounts as it's all that's accessed to get ROMs etc. I'd wipe it all and restart when switching methods.

PS: Seeing as your signature says you're going to eat me, I should warn you I'm all height and no meat, sorry :P

i suffer this problem to, that's why i constantly make backups, but i found out that the problem is rebooting into recovery, and rebooting from recovery, every time i reboot into recovery my apps dissapear because the sd-ext partition is not correctly mounted, but now if i need to reboot into recovery, i just reboot normally and then press back button to get into recovery, and never reboot system from recovery, i select "power off" and then turn on my phone with power button, and the problem dissapears!! ( actually is still there but i'm avoiding it :) )
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Got an Amaze to check out from a friend. Only boots directly into the bootloader, started a thread in the wrong area and was told it was an RUU problem. Now my issue is, how do I figure out which RUU it would be to replace? It would of been on t-mobiles network, but other then that I dont know. Do I have to go through them one by one until I get one that works?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spastic909:
There is a thread in dev section. It's dedicated to all ota and ruu. They are labeled by carrier. Find the one you need
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
So just try them until I find them? I am already on that thread, and Im attempting my second one now.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spastic909:
I had to look through stone of the early posts to get the right one. It's not all that hard bro
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Ok I just wasnt sure if there was a way to find out what the proper one should be. There is like 6 of them so it should be too bad. Unless its the one that is on the server that they are updating and that I cannot download.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
5 down. The only one left is the one I cant get.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Seems like that server is going to be down for a while.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Ok apparently I am doing something wrong. I put the RUU on my SD, the phone boots into the bootloader and I sellect bootloader. After a second it goes to SD checking ... And finds the PH85img.zip and loads it. Then it checks and goes back to the bootloader, then I restart and it goes straight back into the bootloader.

Doing a search it looks like the phone is supposed to ask if I want to update and its not.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
Are you putting it on the external sdcard or internal sdcard. And it also should be named PH85IMG.zip
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
I am putting the file on the SD card and putting it in the SD slot in the back by the SIM, so I assume thats the external SD. And yes I did properly rename it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
Is your bootloader relocked?
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Yes,it says relocked at the top.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Keylogger_0:
Okay, this time, try inputting the following text in the filename:

PH85IMG

without the ".zip" part and put it on the SDCard, take out your battery, put it back in and then hold volume down and hit power

It should now correctly detect the file.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
Also what version is your HBoot?
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
HBoot says 1.90.0008. The file is properly named. My computer is set to show file extensions so its only .zip once.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
This is what happenes.

When that finishes it goes to this screen

Then after that it goes back to the hboot screen.

finally someone that has [part of] my issue

those screen shots are Exactly what I experinec when i try to install the videotron OTA on a stock Videotron gb amaze. I renmaed correctly, ran hboot did check what was going on and then it comes back to the hboot man screen. When i reboot though, i am back to my regular gb and everything works like before.

so if you do not mind, I'll follow what's on here because i feel it is when I need to be...
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
You are trying to use the OTA's instead of the RUU's. The OTA's have different file structures, so that is why it isn't finding the images it needs.. if I remember correctly, there is a different method for using the OTAs. Ruu's work better imho.

All of your problems can be solved by hitting the bible in my signature, then finding the part of upgrading firmware.

The original RUU's were posted by football, these are HIS files.. download http://www.filefactory.com/file/5p9....17DC_30.78.550L.15_release_259626_signed.zip , rename as you were instructed, put on external SD, and you will have no more issues.

his other files are here: http://www.filefactory.com/f/40bba0821a54f264/
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
I downloaded the RUU from this page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1617644 They are listed as RUU/OTA, so its possible thats the problem. I am downloading the one you linked and I will try it as soon as its done.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
I assumed you are on TMO since you're in florida, if you are using a different carrier, you have to choose the appropriate one from the link you posted..

If your friend bought a phone that is on a different carrier, you have to flash the RUU for that carrier, or you have to s-off than supercid I believe.. but as long as you know it is a tmobile carrier than you're good to go.

Technically the one called "PH85IMG_RUBY_ICS_35_S_TMOUS_2.14.531.3_Radio_1.14. 550L.17DC_30.78.550L.15_release_259626_signed.zip" on the link you posted should have worked.. not sure if you tried that one specifically yet.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Actually Myrtle Beach is in South Carolina. But anyways, I tried every one posted for T-mo except the 3 one because that server is down. They all react exactly as it does in the images I posted.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Flynch3211:
Precisons about my phone

Ok, I guess I have to precise something, I already have the stock "RUU" since I didn't tamper yet with the phone , it is one week old. fresh out of the box. I am already using GB 2.3.4 with the radio version from the RUU file provided by Football. I guess that the RUU for ICS is still within HTC databanks for my provider and that's why I only have the OTA file available. That means that if i want to Circumvent the regulat OTA process which will take maybe weeks befaore it Starts, and I do not want to spam HTC so that my Imei should get selected ahead of time, I realize that I may need to look for other options, like putting the hboot s-off and Unlocked maybe. and this is stuff i am [beep] afraid to do because i do not want to short circuit anything while s-offing it .

Unless if i just unlock hboot i have better chances?

Thanks
[HTC Amaze 4G] Keylogger_0:
Do you know how to use fastboot? I might have an idea...
[HTC Amaze 4G] Flynch3211:
oh, and Though I went to Mytrle beach a few times, as a tourist (and I kind of miss it) I Live north of the 45th parrallel... and Tmobile is not a provider over here .
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
I dont, but I can follow directions and I have basic common sense.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Don't put the .zip part.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
The file is properly named I promise each and every one of you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
Does anyone else have any ideas? I have tried several RUUs and nothing works.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
If I try to go to recovery the phone reboots. And the phone recognizes being pluged in usb.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
If you have a computer, see if you can find an RUU that has a md5 you can check.. if the md5 checks out, unzip the file and see what files are there- also, here is another RUU that basically had the hboot image and recovery image taken out of it(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1616680&highlight=ruu).. I have personally used that, as then there would be no need to reflash a recovery or a different hboot.

I am also starting to wonder if the phone isn't for tmobile- I assumed(wrongly) that you were in florida, but you didn't give us any background on the phone.. has he owned it for a while, or did he just buy it and it has issues? I mean, if there is a chance it is for a different carrier then you have to flash the proper RUU..

If you verify that the right images are in the zip file, and you are naming it properly, and you are putting it on the EXT-SD.. what is the bootloader saying? It should NOT say wrong or missing image if the right files are inside the zip file(ruu) and it is properly named.

How are you renaming it? Did you make sure you can see supported extensions in windows? If it hides a file entension, renaming the file with a .zip at the end will result in a PH85IMG.zip.zip..

I suppose there are many other possibilities, but I need more information, step by step, what you are doing, and what the result is, and some background if there is even a slight possibility this phone is for a carrier besides tmobile. Otherwise you have to make sure the files aren't corrupted in the download somehow(hence checking the md5) and a few other things(like the bootloader is LOCKED, which you verified). And I think someone mentioned flashing the RUU from windows somehow.. hasoon maybe? May want to look into that if doing it in the bootloader isn't working.

Lastly, search thru the bible in my signature- somewhere we have posted some commands that you can execute while in the bootloader from a computer.. some of those may help you flash from OUTSIDE the phone since you say your computer recognizes it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
None of those other carriers exist here, the phone is branded t-mobile. I dont know what an md5 is. I suppose there is a small chance that the phone was purchased online for a different carrier but I would figure that it would be branded with that carriers name instead of t-mobile. The file is names "PH85IMG.zip" My computer is set to show the extentions so there is no chance that it is .zip.zip.

I have the file loaded on the root of the external SD card, the phone boots directly into FastBoot. When you power it up it says FASTBOOT and gives options for BOOTLOADER, REBOOT, REBOOT BOOTLOADER, and POWERDOWN. When I select BOOTLOADER, The phone will change to the bootloader menu, and then jump to the HBOOt screen and check the sd for the files it wants just like in the images I posted. From then on its exactly like what happens in the images.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
I was hoping I could flash a nand backup that someone has uploaded, but I cant get into recovery.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
Change your Hboot. I think that's why its not flashing.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
The phone is s-on, is it possible to replace the hboot without being s-off? And I dont believe I can s-off with it being in its current state.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
No, you can't replace the hboot without s-off..

Here is something to try, and you may have to do a few searches to find other useful commands.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25326824&postcount=92

"fastboot flash recovery recovery-cwm-ruby-5.5.0.4.img"

In THAT case they were using clockworkmod recovery, but you can use "fastboot flash" commands from a computer that is connected to the phone while the phone is booted into bootloader. I've spent a bit of time trying to find the command that lets you flash the actual RUU this way, and I'll update if I find it.. but basically you need to do some searching into "fastboot flash" commands.

You still haven't clarified what you DO know about the phone. Did it actually work for your friend, or did he/she buy it NOT working? If it was working, what did they do before this happened?

If you knew it was on gingerbread for example, you could try flashing a gingerbread boot.img

Some more commands in the bible are here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26779502&highlight=fastboot+flash#post26779502 but I'm not sure which require s-off and which don't..

In my last post I asked for more information, there isn't much more help or ideas I can give you without knowing SOME background on what happened to the phone, or what exactly is happening.. and you still need to unzip the ruu files you downloaded to make sure that the images are in them properly.

The best answer I can give you is this: if you can access your bootloader and it still scans for the image you're trying to flash, you AREN'T bricked. But there is something that isn't being done correctly, or there is something wrong with the file..

And google md5, basically it is a way to verify that the file isn't corrupted if the person who supplied the download supplied an md5 checksum.

All of the RUU's here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1617644 that are hosted by dev-host have an md5 when you click the download link.. so if you click http://d-h.st/z70 you will see a part that says "MD5 Sum: 97139b8805e534b119bc45098185fc5f" you download and run a md5 checking program on the download and verify it puts out the same number- if it doesn't, the file is corrupted.
[HTC Amaze 4G] slipmagt:
I honestly did not have any of that information. I just got a message from him. Its on t-mobile.
