It might be the phone is fully bricked and no jig is going to put it into DownLoad mode... If the battery is not charged I don't know if it will go into DL mode with the jig.... I do know you can pull the battery out have your USB cable plugged into your comp and on the phone hold vol+ vol- and then plug the cable into the phone to get into DL mode.... Your next step will be a JTAG via MobileTechVideos.com <~~~~ This dude is a BadAss confirmed..... GL

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] VerticalCobra:
While plugged in, if it heats up closer to the camera than the battery portion of the phone, it's possibly a hard brick.

What I tried from Samsung and ATT tech support before I sent it in for warranty repair:

1. Hold power button down for over 30 s to see if it reboots, or

2. Hold power button + vol up + vol down for 30 s till it reboots, or

3. Hold power button + vol down for 30 s till it reboots, or

4. Remove the battery for 2 min, hold down power button + vol up + vol down buttons, and then put in the battery, or

5. Remove the battery for 2 min, and try step 2, or

6. Remove the battery and try step 2.

Good luck :good:

PS: No questions were asked about rooting/flashing ROMs to me from Samsung before they repaired my phone in warranty. YMMV.

What is the point of doing this? what would it prove?

1. normal procedure for a BSOD reboot. phone stuck on black screen while on.

2. if off and doing that, will bring recovery mode.

3. nothing

4. minus the power button it should bring you to download mode.

5.pointless

6. pointless.

At&t tech support are retards. They have a list of stuff to do that most of the time does absolutely nothing. Like if your USB port is toast they might have you do a factory reset, which will not do a damn thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] VerticalCobra:
Well, trying to get OP into download/recovery mode was the point of this thread...

To many techie users at XDA, techs may appear retarded. However, techs have to assume the users who call in don't know much about their phones...hence their boilerplate suggestions.:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pgonza02:
Thanks, tried all of the methods. No luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pgonza02:
The point is that the phone is NOT powering on so the suggestions are to try and get it to turn on and go into download mode at best, at worst get it to turn on and go into ADB. I know the difference between a black screen with phone on on (ADB will work in that case, PC will recognize the device connected) and the phone completely dead.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pgonza02:
Looks like JTAG service for me.

Nothing else is working.

Thanks for the link and the help.

So I have the HTC flashlight app installed on non rooted phone. Why can't firendstream and other apps be done in the same manor?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] andybones:
that's a real good question, have you tried the apps from .apks working on a ROM for our phone, I can send u them.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] IceDragon59:
Because Friendstream is still installed as a system app, which can't be overwritten without root. It's just hidden from view in the default.xml file.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
Probably because Friend Stream already exists on the phone (it's in the "All" list) and you cannot overwrite it with another app without root privileges. The flashlight did not already exist, so it could be installed without any problem.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] metroidnemesis13:
The reason is because the only Android device I've ever had (aside from the Nexus One) was the Infuse that worked with MMS. When I owned an iPhone 3G and 3GS, and Blackjack II I never had problems receiving or sending MMS until I moved to Android. I'm on a GNex (unlocked). I have had mobile data disabled on my phone (always) because it costs way too much for me and I am always in WiFi anyway.

Thanks!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mg2195:
For the infuse, you need mobile data to be enabled in order to send or reciece mms...some phones will automatically turn data on just for mms...but not the infuse ...WiFi won't work with mms

I tried downgrading from 3.03 but I keep getting "bad model id", which is strange because I managed to install HSPL 20 minutes ago and then after I (tried to) install the leo.img (to restore it back to stock) it failed. But somehow, not only did it fail, but it also messed up my SPL :'(

[HD2 General] samsamuel:
Can't see the vid (low bandwidth here) but have a look at top line in bootloader,, do the characters look messed up?

Are you trying hspl4 when you receive the bad model id?

If yes, then the booloader modelID has been corrupted, and there's no fix that I've seen, except perhaps jtag, and I'm only 50:50 about that working.
[HD2 General] Silencer96:
No the top part's fine. What am I supposed to do from here?
[HD2 General] Silencer96:

In that case perhaps you aren't using hspl4,,, only hspl4 will work with that spl.

On the page of the tool it says it doesn't support Android phones. So to what extent will it allow the creation of android themes...? I'd love to get busy with making a theme for my favourite phone, so what does this let me do...? :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] hazard1nc:
I'm not sure if it allows android themes or not, I personally haven't used it, I was going to test it out tonite after work, but I haven't even played with it at all. It says in the postings that it will allow you to make new qmg files for your boot animations but that's all I had researched into it thus far.. and if it don't support Android tw themes, why would they have pictures of themes in tw manager up? Curious..

I will check into other programs as well, like I said I was looking into qmg video conversion and this was the second link that popped up when hunting. I know you may like a twlauncher theme editor, but for now this is the best I can do on short notice:

I will investigate further, but I'm certain those screenshots on Samsung site for this app had modded twlauncher screens..

The makers of go launcher ex have that allow you to build custom themes.. one sec and I can pull that up.

It is Go Theme Editor.

** Note **

The go theme editor maybe in japanese, there is an English translation if you look in the upper corner either left or right.

Quick question, I'm sure its been answered but I guess my search keywords are too vague. I want to stay on aokp but i tend to write long sms messages a lot and on all the aokp JB roms it keeps breaking my txt messages up into several multiple small messages which is really annoying for everyone. On sammy roms it doesnt do this.

Anyway to fix this?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TheFiveDots:
This will be fixed in the 09/05 build of CM10.

The background issue of the ROM not being able to send texts that weren't split by the app was fixed a few builds ago, however the included SMS was still set to split them. This app-level splitting will be removed in the next build and SMS should work like stock.

The best way to go back to stock kernel is to download stock rom, extract files then go into fastboot/bootloader mode and type :

This will reflash the stock kernel :)

Hey guys this is probably a simple question but I can't figure it out. I have an old iTunes acct and want to dump it but I want to transfer all my movies, music and vids first. Now I transfer some videos just fine but some won't transfer, and my movies won't transfer at all? So what do I got to do?:confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zerg The Bear:
I know that all iTunes movies are protected by DRM and can't be natively played on non-Apple devices/software. Their music was protected, but they stopped doing that a few years ago, so you might have a mixed bag there. I still use iTunes for the AirTunes remote speakers, so I haven't looked into it, but I'm sure there are some ways around this somewhere on the web.

As for your other videos, I'm guessing those were videos you got from other means than iTunes. I'm thinking that they are in a format your device/software doesn't support. You could look into other players to add that support.

Been seeing a lot of post about how to install OTA with a rooted stock ROM. This is by far the easiest way for people to update and not lose any data. All are done using Odin 3.07 on Windows 7 and not going to link it or how to use it lots of tutorials out that show you.

To put in Download Mode -> Vol Down + Home + Power

To Boot into Recovery -> Vol Up + Home + Power

Things needed:

ROM

CWM-Recovery

Root zip file

ROMS

NOTE: These are the FULL firmware of LH1 and NOT small OTA. This is good to have as a backup should something go wrong.

Bell

Telus

Rogers

Sasktel

CWM-Recovery

See Attached, this is an Official CWM from CWM team. If you don't want to use this use whatever recovery you want or had before.

Root: MOVE THIS TO PHONE STORAGE

Chainfire SuperSU

1.) Boot into recovery and create backup, always better to backup

2.) Unzip firmware file and you will see 2 files a dll and md5. The one we need is the md5

Im with bell so mines is -> KIES_HOME_I747MVLALH1_I747MOYCALH1_20120814.100513_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5

3.) Put phone into download mode

4.) Load Odin select PDA and select the firmware file you unzipped in step 2. The MD5 file.

5.) Let the phone do its thing and do not touch it until you are at the lockscreen.

7.) Boot into download mode again and select PDA and this time select the recovery tar file

8.) Uncheck F. Reset and flash

9.) Once back on the lockscreen go into Recovery and install the CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip to root from phone storage.

10.) Get Triangle Away from here and reset counter.

You have essentially completed steps 1-5 above using Kies. Go to step 7 (6 is missing) and follow instructions to flash the CWM tar file attached in OP via ODIN and the supersu zip via CWM and you are done.
