And do you know what this ota files are used for? I've an S5830 from Vodafone(Spain) and I want to get it back to the original firm (you know, operator apps and some more innecesary ****), but I'm unable to find one on the internet.

Looking at www.samfirmware.com, the only thing I've seen about my device and Vodafone is the OTA file i'm talking about, but I'm not pretty sure if flashing it will let my phone in factory defaults.

I need to flash a Vodafone rom because I wanna send it to the technical support.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kofiaa:
Find a Vodafone Spain Rom, it should be over 200mb, then download Odin for your galaxy ace, it should be in the ace forum. Then flash it. Check the link below.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] skezza:
Basically, it's not rocket science. If the battery is the same size as the OEM battery, it's very likely that it's not any bigger, if not smaller.

Don't be fooled by 'Japanese Compression Technology' (my favourite line from eBay batteries lol), it's about as believable as 'Authentic Chinese Replica;.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] o_vdx:
it's depends on your luck, maybe you will get a good battery life, as the OP of the thread, but in my experience (a friend bought a 2500 mAh battery for my i9001) lifetime of stock battery is better.

thanks in advance

No download mode or recovery?

Tried a USB Jig?

If none work, a JTag might save it, not sure on .pit files, whether it kills the motherboard or not.

May have to be a Samsung repair job...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam213:
no..don't work download mode and recovery...

i have only a black screen...

i have not with me this particular cable..my first idea now is try to found (where? tomorrow is sunday..) the Electric part and try to build myself the jig...as some guide that i have read on this forum..

the second option is try to use this jtag..but i must found some hop that make this service..the final..is assistence.. i have one year of guarantee too, but i don't know if thi guarantee is good for this kind of defects..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Are you happy enough to make the Jig? They can be bought on eBay for £2 (very cheap wherever you are from).

There is a website called mobiletechvideos.com, they are based in America but they deal with these types of bricks.

As I said, not sure if a bad .pit file flash kills the motherboard or not. But try the Jig first and see if there is any response.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Just take to Samsung Service center, just cook a good story Like the problem occurred update. It will be fix for free
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
My mate tried that once and he got turned down, his phone was also stock.

Don't always expect a lie to work, but I suppose if you don't want the hassle of trying to fix it, the repair centre is a phone call away...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sam213:
The problem is not the cost of jig cable but the time that I need to wait before receive it. I if I try myself maybe that I can save one week and, if this trick don't work, and I will send the galaxy s2 in the Samsung services...

I'm member of Samsung exclusive.. I hope to save some days..

Anyway... I hope to solve with a jig cable.. In the meantime I have found a basic smartphone from my friend.. Just to make a tethering and use my asus transformer for all the normal operation...

But.. Just for my information.. How a wrong file can generate a hardware problem in the motherboard?

I repeat...I'm really very stupid! I have make this operation a lot of times... And without attention I have make this operation yesterday... @##@#....

Thanks guys.. If some people have some extra idea... Reply me please!

You could be surprised the damage flashing wrong .pit file can do. I suppose doing what Jokesy said would be worth a try.
[HTC One X] whitlock1987:
Hi guys, opened my one x today to give it the WiFi fix, now the hands-free speaker appears to have stopped working.

Where is it located? What have I ruddy done now? Haha

Cheers guys
[HTC One X] DeniCevap:
You probably should post what you did to fix it because maybe another person does the same and gets the same fault as you did.

Even if it started working after a rebbot.
[HTC One X] whitlock1987:
Basically, I'd bent one of the connector pins for the speaker back on itself so the circuit wasn't complete.

Lesson learnt: Always check what your'e NOT repairing also to make sure you haven't accidentally damaged something else! One quick look over the phone would have saved me having to open it back up again!!

[HD2 General] stevediaz:
I would like to announce that the hd2 that have the volume buttons broken can be repaired. This guide has to be taken with caution as it may create a nuclear explotion. This will only work if using magldr, as it will boot by it self when connected to USB.

Requirements:

USB

Computer

Hd2 ruu

t-6 screw driver

- screwdriver

The first thing is to dissassemble the hd2 completely

View attachment 1346260

2nd is to get something that can hold the LCD and digitizer up.

View attachment 1346261

View attachment 1346265

3rd, connect the motherboard and camera flex cable together together and don't close the flex cable connection

View attachment 1346268

View attachment 1346278

4th, connect the LCD

View attachment 1346288

Now a USB

View attachment 1346291

Next the battery by put tape to hold it the motherboard so it can make contact with it.

View attachment 1346314

Now, we need the computer ready to flash oem Ruu, connect hd2 to computer and with a - screwdriver connect the first 2 pins at the mother, before it boots.

View attachment 1346326

Only blue and yellow

View attachment 1346328

It will enter tri-color screen and now it can be flashed.

Once flashed disconnect USB and take off battery of hd2 carefully and assemble back.

And that is how u go back to windows mobile.

[HD2 General] calcaneo:
Hi stevediaz,

Why do you say it will only work using magldr?? I have an HTC HD2 with the ribbon/flex cutted. I would replace the main flex but would like to be sure that everything is working before trying to replace it. I can't boot the HTC (it doesn't gets past the white splash screen with the htc logo) because the volume buttons aren't working. It got bricked when I tried to flash it with android after the "task29". I believe never installed magldr. Can I still get to the bootloader using your method and try to install windows or anything else?

Best regards,

calcaneo
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
There are several reasons for hanging at the HTC splash screen, lots of them recoverable if you can get into bootloader and manipulate menus, so its definitely worth you giving this a try.
[HD2 General] stevediaz:
If magldr isn't installedis not the bad, u can still. Restore aslong as it does work, but It will be harder cuz u will need the power button connected and it I harder but u will need helping u to restore it to windowsmobile. I am already working on a guide to install clk and magldr to install wp8 or android without the volume buttons.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mtjoy:
Hello. I recently purchased a SIII from eBay and got it activated today. The first time they booted it up at the Verizon store I noticed what I thought was an unlock icon towards the bottom of the screen (which I am no longer seeing).

Once the phone was activated it performed a system update to the latest OS release. Now that I have got the phone home it keeps randomly rebooting and then it will get stuck in a boot loop. I pull the battery, it will boot as normal, and then it will randomly reboot again. I have performed a factory reset/data wipe but that did not help.

I did search a bit on here but didn't see anything similar to what I'm experiencing. Any ideas on what my issue is? Thanks in advance for your help.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
When you say "loaded" are you just flashing a stock ROM or did you Odin back to stock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mtjoy:
I did the ODIN back to stock (using the ROM that was in step #6 of the above link). After that booted the phone up and it indicated there was an OTA available. I downloaded that (about 30 Mb); performed the update; and then the phone seemed to start the random reboots more frequently.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
I didn't mean that everybody has problems when I said a lot and maybe it isn't "a lot" but I have seen numerous people posting on here about there problems whether its random reboots or screen flashing/flickering or w/e it may be and not just here I know a few people with this phone (my wife, father, brother, mother in law, and myself.) And I have had 2 problems with this phone, random reboots and WiFi never wants to connect and my wife has the sim card issue, my dads phone has problems with screen and WiFi, idk what the deal is. That's 3 phones out of 5 that has problems and idk if the sim card issue even counts but still.

I'm not saying this is a bad phone or anything, other than these issues it has been a great phone the best phone I have ever owned.
