[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] yacy:
Hi,

I am completely new in phone flashing. I met some troubles with my Galaxy Y device.

I will explain the details and hope someone can give me guidelines to fix it.

I have a Galaxy Y that freezes at logo screen when powered up.

We can access Download mode, but not Recovery one.

Initially it had an official rom that has not been modified.

I get trouble with it with a boot loop.

So, I went to Recovery Mode and did a wipe Data. This worked once and then I get boot loop problem 2 days later.

I tried again to wipe data through Recovery mode, but now with out result.

So I decided to flash it … Odin failed and now it stays frozen at the logo screen when powered up.

For the flashing:

- I try on 3 different PC (1 Win7 and 2 XP) and tried different USB ports

- For the drivers, I tried by installing Kies_2.3.3.12085_7_5 and by installing USB drivers only (SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe)

- I tried a lot of time, with and without restarting Odin

- I tried with Odin 1.83, 1.84 and 1.85 ( I know that 1.84 and 1.85 support S5360 model)

- And I tried using different ROMs

The communication between Odin and the device seems correct (I can see the yellow highlight when connecting the device in Download mode)

I tried some Doky’s packages from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21846620:

- S5360_XXKK6_OXXKK2_XXKK5

- S5360_XXKL3_OXXKL1_XXKL3

- S5360_XXLF3_OXXLF3_XXLF3

I tried also some other packages containing only one file and one dll (retrieved from here as example http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/inde...laxy-y-firmwares&catid=55:samsung&Itemid=82):

- S5360XXKL3_LUXKJ1_Luxembourg_Android_2.3.6

- S5360TAJKK3_TLPKK3_Austria_Android_2.3.6

- S5360LUHKJ2_PSNKJ2_Argentina_Personal_Android_2.3.6

- S5360XXLA2_S5360OXXLA2_EUR

- S5360XXKL3_S5360OXXKL1_EUR

I tried also this package, as I saw that some people were able to unbrick there device with it:

GalaxyS5360_DDLA1_2.3.6

This last package contains totoro_0623.pit file. So I tried with and without Re-Partition checked.

I tried also to download totoro_0623.pit file again from other locations and the .pit file with other packages from the previous lists, but without success (Odin always fails).

On point that can be perhaps important is then when flashing, with Odin, the CSC package alone it always succeeds.

The same, when flashing only BOOT package (taken from GalaxyS5360_DDLA1_2.3.6), is it always successful.

I tried also to flash different couples of BOOT and CSC packages and it is always successful.

Unfortunately, I am completely new in this domain and I do not know the purpose of each package (BOOT, PDA, MODEM and CSC).

So, I do not know what to do now ... Perhaps someone can have some advices or guidelines to help.

Thanks again.

Thank you very much, Tabyuh22, for your advice.

Unfortunately, I did a lot of search already (xda forum and google), but unfortunately without success.

The only unbrick tutorial I found, related to Galaxy Y, is flashing GalaxyS5360_DDLA1_2.3.6 packages with Odin. I tried this already, but unfortunately, it was not successful (Odin flash fails, except if I flash, BOOT and CSC packages only, as explained previously).

Perhaps you have in mind a specific link that I can try?

Thanks again.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] anasdcool71:
Most probably, the Odin you downloaded is a corrupt one, or maybe you're using an older version. Try the one from Doky73's thread.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] deathnotice01:
sorry but i believe its the Odin,

try the v1.85 and do not use a pit file,

very well detailed question,

thanks
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Mohamed.Anwar:
can you post screenshot for odin after "Fail" and/or all text in Message area

and I will help I've unbricked my phone just today :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] yacy:
Thank you very much for your advice and help.

In fact, I tried already to download Odin 1.85 from different sources. I just tried again, but unfortunately I get the same bad result.

What I find strange is that the flash is successful when using the CSC package only.

I do not know how to put images in the post, so I attached 2 .jpg snapshots of Odin failure and success.

Here is Odin's log when failure (when trying to flash PDA, MODEM and CSC packages):

And here is Odin's log when success (when trying to flash CSC package only):

Thanks again for your help.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Mohamed.Anwar:
Just choose PDA and It's required file and live Phone and CSC alone then you'l be able to boot into Recovery mod
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] yacy:
It seems it is what I did. The result is in the Failed snapshot I attached.

Do you see any thing wrong in this snapshot and the associated logs?

(I tried also to flash PDA or PHONE alone, but failed. It is successful only if I flash CSC alone)

Thanks again.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] -CALIBAN666-:
Try data/cache wipe after flash,maybe it helps

MANY GREEEEETZ!!!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] anasdcool71:
Alright, now when you downloaded the firmware package, there would be 4 different .tar files - BOOT_something.tar, PDA_something.tar, CSC_something.tar and MODEM_something.tar. Sometimes, there is one more, DefaultCalDataBOOT_something.tar, which i use in place of BOOT. Try flashing that in place of BOOT file. Still if it dosen't work, flash the PIT file along. Make sure the PIT's right. Our device's pit is "totoro_0623.pit".
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] yacy:
I imagine we can do this only by accessing Recovery Mode.

Unfortunately, I cannot access this mode, but the Download one only :(
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] yacy:
The only package I get containing BOOT file is GalaxyS5360_DDLA1_2.3.6. This package contains:

- BOOT_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5

- DefaultCalDataWithBoot_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5

-PDA_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5

-MODEM_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5

-GT-S5360-MULTI-CSC-ODDLA1.tar.md5

Flashing BOOT_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5 alone is successful and here is Odin’s log:

Flashing DefaultCalDataWithBoot_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5 alone fails and here is Odin’s log:

Selecting totoro_0623.pit alone fails and here is Odin’s log:

The remark when flashing DefaultCalDataWithBoot_S5360DDLA1_REV05.tar.md5 alone, I can see on the device the progress bar increasing, but it fails before the end.

(I do not have this at all when trying to flash PDA or MODEM files)

Thanks again.

Yacy.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Mohamed.Anwar:
Possible solution : That what I did

Keep ODIN alive don't close it then try changing USB ports and use man ports ( in the back if you're using Desktop PC ) and flash only pit and PDA if it didn't worked restart download mode

then check if you could boot into Recovery mod
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] The_animaToR:
Flash some kernel.tar in place of PDA file....

Then you'll be able to boot into recovery and then install any rom :)....!!!!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] yacy:
Sorry for the late answer, as I was not available these days.

And thank you for your guide lines.

I tried this operation again many times, but I always get flash failure :(

I had a look to the Development area and tried to flash different kernels.

Unfortunately, I get failures again.

What is different now is that

1/ Odin hangs at the steps below:

2/ In the phone, “custom bin down” counter is now uncremented.

Its value is 10 (it was zero, before trying to flash kernels from custom roms).

Do you have any other idea?

Does an alternative tool to flash the device exist?

Is there a way (perhaps by using Android design tools) to get more information about why the flash does not work (a more precise error message)?

Thanks again for your help.

Hi,

I just flashed ViperX 2.7 and faux 10u and I noticed that in the cpu section of venom tweaks min cpu frequency is set to be 1500 and max is set to be 1600. Is this correct? I have a variant one chip so the overclock should only be 1500 right? When the phone first boots min frequency would say 51 (which i assume is correct) but after some use it becomes 1500. This doesn't look right.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tinkerhell69:
I want the US version of the Xperia Go - apparently to be called the Xperia Advance (in particular the ST27A model).

Supposedly Sony is to release the Advance 3rd quarter. Well that ends in 10 days and I've not heard a thing about the Advance since some early reviews and comments about FCC filings.

Sony sales reps are the typical no-service type call center folks and can't tell me a thing except they don't even know what that phone is much less when it will be released....

There are a couple of net companies that turn up with a simple google search that claim to have the Advance already for sale (not pre-sales either; actual in stock, will ship it today, sales) and that it is truly the US model, not a UK version shipped over here.

Is that even possible if the Sony store doesn't show anything about the phone?

1) Does anyone know anything further about an official Sony release of the Advance?

2) Does anyone have a clue if the Advance will be any different than the GO? If not then it looks like I can pick up an ST27A from several places and I can have the phone I've been jonesing for since I first read about em.

Does anyone have any knowledgeable advice for me?

I thought creating this thread will help a few people who are new to the note and doesn't know it's S Pen hidden functions. Below is the list of what I know it could do so far. Please let me know if you are aware of any other functions and I will add it to this post. Thanks.

1. Hold down S Pen button and tap on any screen to take a screen shot.

2. While in browser, hold down S Pen button and swipe left to go back to previous page. While in any app, the same action is equivalent to the "back" button.

3. While pressing the S Pen button, drag the S Pen down to open a list of options available on the current screen.

4. Hold down S Pen button and double tap on any screen to pull up S Note mini app.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] vndnguyen:
these tips already mentioned in the user manual. So I copy here:

- Back: While pressing the S Pen button, drag the S Pen to the left to return to the previous screen.

- Menu: While pressing the S Pen button, drag the S Pen down to open a list of options available on the current screen.

- Screen capture: While pressing the S Pen button, tap and hold the screen to capture a screenshot. After capturing a screenshot, you can draw on it, write on it, or crop it. The edited image will be saved in My Files → sdcard → Pictures → Screenshots.

- Quick note: While pressing the S Pen button, double-tap the screen to launch the Quick note function.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] smrsxn:
Obviously forum moderators to provide guideline on this.

My preference is that, not every question that gets answered in Q&A thread, should be posted again in general forum as duplicate thread only to share the answer again. We all should use the search function more, and reduce clutter and keep conversation in a single thread.

Or maybe you can close the orginal thread in Q&A forum, and point to this new thread from there in closing comments?

Just my 2 cents.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] khanh1289:
obiviously, this thread is relevant and had helped a few people. Like I say, people do not look for tips in Q&A forum. I agree that we all should use the search function, however, a lot of people tends to not use it.
