Get into fastboot reflash the boot image most of the time the error is the user not typing in the correct procedure to flash ie : fastboot flash boot boot.img hence you get the white screen simply restarting the process in fastboot always seems to work , fastboot wipe cache , then head to recovery to install Rom , you should be fine from there. :cool:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techhome:
Attempting to update a US-Tmobile Defy (green lens) with CM7 to CM10

1. As a 1st step wanted to do a full Nandroid - but the backup repeatedly failed.

2. Next, installed RSD lite to unroot, revert to stock, 1st tried with "JORDN_U3_6.36.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNTMOB1B4B5DE1028.0R_JORDANTMO_P022_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz"

After completion, the Defy was stuck in a boot loop

3. Finally, used RSD lite attempting to unroot & revert to stock using, "T-Mobile_MB525_6.19.0_1FF.zip"

After completion, the phone would not boot nor go into bootloader.

The battery was very low and I suspect that it may be the reason I cannot start the bootloader. The phone, in its current state does not seem to charge the battery.

Please help!

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thekguy:
All you had to do was wipe data after 1 St flash via stock recovery:D

But now search around for the mcgyer trick to charge your phone and then flash the first sbf and wipe data afterwards

Never flash with a low battery:cool:
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techhome:
Thanks,

found the thread and am gave it a try. Still no love insofar as getting into the boot loader. Perhaps the battery is not dead. Reads 3.9v

Anything else I can do to try n summon the bootloader?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanpurite:
Do you get something like :

'battery ok in bootloader' ?

EDIT:

I see you are not able to see boorloader at all.

one thing you can do is :

connect the phone to your system

start rsd lite

take out the battery

insert it again

and immediately press power and volume up.

you may not see the bootloader on the screen but your device may show up on rsd lite.then you can flash your sbf.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rockb.blues:
I was wondering if there had been a fix to have the Picasa folder from Google+ "Photos from Posts" stop being split into various folders according to date on our Galaxy S3. Is there any way to fix this but maintain the rest of the Picasa folders?

Perhaps a way to "Hide" said folders while being able to maintain the rest visible?

If neither, maybe an alternative gallery replacement app that is able to see both the pics on the phone as well as sync to Picasa?

trouble flashing roms and restoring nandroid backup

I Have been trying to flash CM9. The update installs but, the phone will not boot past the HTC logo screen. It gets there flashes once then the screen dims and that's it. I've let it remain like this for nearly an hour. At first my nandroid backup worked fine. I flashes nilsp business sense which worked, but did not like it. Since the backup won't reboot. It goes to the 4gLTE screen the rings flash 4 time or so and then nothing. I did not s-off. Could the be the source of my problem, and would this solve my problem? I would really like to have cm9. A previous phone had cm7 installed and I loved it. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC Rezound] wlmeng11:
If you are s-on, you have to manually flash the kernel.

This can be done with fastboot or with a ph98img.zip

S-off makes everything easier.

Sent from my HTC Rezound
[HTC Rezound] Catumaros:
The cm9 I'm using comes with a ph98img and still doesn't work. I can't get my nandroid backup to work either. The only thing that does is the ics business and only when flashed from the internal sd. I really want cm9, but the s-off precedure looks a bit overwhelming.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
S-OFF looks way more intimidating than it actually is. It's quite simple and it makes everything on this phone so much easier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ge_johnny:
Hi, experts, help needed here.

My galaxy nexus (GSM version) was 4.0.4 perviously, then I OTA it to 4.1.1 and my phone's unlocked but never rooted. After OTA to 4.1.1, everything works fine for couples months. But about 1 week ago, when i tried to update an App then an odd thing happeded, right after i pressed the update bottle, screen fliker happened, then the phone stopped responds, after I pull the battey out then put it in, the phone just kept restarting over and over, only showed me an google logo with a un-locked icon...

I tried to get into the recovery mode and flash it with the Galaxy Nexus toolkit for whatever 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 version factory images, but everytime right after starts, then screen fliker occurs and then the toolkit just hung there. - and this even occured while i tried to wipe the phone.

I tried to use the odin tool as well, but still, everytime right after start flash, screen fliker occurs and odin hung there. And the worse thing is, after my last try with Odin, now my phone is showing a phone connects to a computer icons and a yellow triangle...

Is there still a hope? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
My guess is Odin messed up your partitions. Can you still access the bootloader?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ge_johnny:
no.. prevously i can access it, but now, only the yellow triangle and the phone and computer's icon shows up.

what can I do? :crying::crying::eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
not sure if it would be wise to suggest this, but you could try omapflash. I'm curious about it myself, I guess I'll start looking into that. if it has power like nvflash, not sure if that would help, since you have no backup of your "good" partition table. If you have the guts, of course. I would just return the device in to warranty. :victory:

edit: first google hit, title says "gt-i9250", the gsm version, don't know what you roll op.

edit2: read the whole thread. pretty useful insight right there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yup, OMAP Flash should work.

EDIT: Actually, I just re-read the post above: Odin generally will work if you see the screen with the yellow triangle. If not, use OMAP Flash and then re-try Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
hmm, i forgot that existed. :D

seriously, i think that a lot of the issues i see in that thread are probably caused by windows.

maybe OP's device's xloader/uboot went down the drain?

edit: found another good post on this. bookmarked.

edit2: and some more right here.

edit3: Naturally, I deviate away from toolkits or batch scripts, so I'm trying to look at this like nvflash. One thing that I read is that Omapflash commands are issued on the target instead of the host like fastboot, so that is making my mind spin.

edit4: here. "OMAP4460_TUNA_8G_HS_PRO 444007 01 HS" - 8G probably means hardware revision, the one we see in bootloader. HS could be High Speed device. Nope, High Security.

edit5: how many edits this going to have... "OMAP4 Jellybean Release Notes" - omappedia

edit6: totally different idea. OP, do you have an OTG cable? Because we got something called "SYSBOOT" ;)

edit7: this is the most interesting thing yet. i'm salivating right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ge_johnny:
First of all, thanks for all the replys, that really fresh my mind..

For your addition information, yes, odin does recongnize my my while I connects to the PS, I guess the SCREEN FLIKER may be caused by the wrong odin tar packages... For my current situation, which version of the system should I flash? 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 or it doesn't matter? Besides, do you know where can I download a full packages of Odin flash packages which includes the partion table as well? Sorry to ask this stupid questions here cause I'm a newbee here and this is my first Android phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3rdstring:
I've never used odin but I bookmarked this post just in case (I haven't seen any 4.1.1 ODIN repacks)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
You shouldn't need a partition table. It will work without one. And you can use either a 4.0.4 or a 4.1.1 tar. Both should be available in the dev section. Make sure you pay close attention to which boxes need checks in them - never put a check in box related to repartitioning.

For future reference, I would always recommend to use fastboot before resorting to odin. Less chances of you getting into the situation that you are currently in.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ge_johnny:
here is the update of the problem.

OMAPlash doesn't solve my problem at all, I run the defaullt omap4460_tuna_hs_pro.txt script, it looks like flash something to my phone but the problem still there.

I tried redownload some odin packages into my phone, but still screen fliker happened...

Any other suggestions?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
from what i've read, you now have the ability to enter the target, omapflash commands are issued on the target, not on the host.

you can feed the device the x-loader and uboot, which will then give you fastboot, restoring then a factory image.

someone that has actually done the whole procedure or has more info on this, please share.

Don't think I explained myself very well :P

Hey guys thanks a lot for your replies! I don't think I got the severity of the problem across well enough. See, the phone was in bootloop but everything was going fuzzy all the time (including recovery) and the recovery mode was corrupt it wouldn't let me clear cache! and while it was running the clearing process, all I could see was yellow lines of errors saying cache cannot be mounted. After loads of failed attempts of trying to flash Stock ICS and Jellybean (Yakju, without wallet) the phone decided it wanted to brick and so didn't turn on at all! I found a forum online (http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f63...-i9100g-via-usb-cable-freeeeeeeeeeee-1465412/) which gave me the OMAPFlash method with which I unbricked the phone and got it started a couple of times. I tried to then flash stock again via fastboot, it didn't work it simply couldn't send files to my phone although the phone was connected because it was detected under fastboot devices. After this, I went into download mode and tried to flash using Odin, however, this crashed and the phone crashed too which required me to pull the battery out. From then, all I get is > phone!Pc < and now the phone is detected via USB and via OMAP but the OMAP doesn't bring me back to fastboot its stuck on that yellow triangle screen!

Again, Thanks a lot for all your help! If I don't get this sorted in a few days I'll be sending it to Samsung!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1083182&highlight=ad+hoc

and here's what I did...

1. Get ES File Explorer from Market

2. Set your tab to fly mode --> WLAN off

3. Open ES File Explorer and in settings menu select Root options.

* Check Root Explorer

* Check Up to Root

* Mount File System (I'm not sure if needed)

* Backup System App (I'm not sure if needed)

4. Download wpa_supplicant file to your tab

5. Navigate to /system/bin and copy wpa_supplicant to somewhere safe (I made backup directory in storage/ sd memory)

6, Now copy new wpa_supplicant file from where you saved it (downloads directory) to /system/bin

7. Connect tab to computer, remember to enable USB-developer mode from Settings.

8. Now in windows command prompt type:

NOTE! Android SDK is needed, it can be downloaded from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

adb shell

# su

# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

9. Reboot your tab

10. Change flight mode to off and enable Wifi

* Anyone knows how to enable Tab 2 Wi-Fi only for mobile Hotspots(ad-hoc -> Symbian Joikuspot, N9 Wi-Fi Hotspot)?

* Anyway to get new version of wpa_supplicant? For Galaxy Tab 2?

* Any applications available which can create working connection to mobile ad-hoc hotspots?
