I need some help.

When I got this phone it was in Chinese and I was trying to fix it.

now I am stuck at the Samsung Boot Logo, I tried installing CWM and no luck.

How do I fix this please help

to at least get back to factory settings, also when I got the phone it did not have an SD card so factory reset will not work.

unless someone can upload there SD Card info and I can put the files on a new SD and do a Factory reset.

please help

buddy ..

now i am fully stock ROM as i got it form a shop and still have same issues as i posted in this thread.. . though camera.imei is working on this rom .. its exactly like my original rom ..

no differnece .. the shopkeeper also had exact same device.

but the recovery which u made for me is not working on this stock rom .. though that worked earlier when i installed other roms after unbricking it..

also when i made mtk droid backup this time the size of recovery.img is different ..

please can u make another recovery for me ? or guide me to some source where i can get one form ?

what filesa re needed to make it ? i have backup this time fully working with spf what file i need to upload it ?

thanks

Seems that u bricked ur rom,

If u dont have a CMW and a recovery , u need to flash the stock rom

1-Download the official rom from here https://hotfile.com/dl/188311563/6cc198d/Official_ROM_4.0.4.7z.html

2-Download flashtools from here https://hotfile.com/dl/187977393/9274e93/Flashtool_v3.1224.01.zip.html

3-Download the modified CWM recovery from here https://hotfile.com/dl/187976530/186eee7/recovery.img.html

4-Download and install the usb preloader drivers from here https://hotfile.com/dl/187294871/ec92c97/USB_Driver.zip.html

5-Run flashtool, open the scatter file inside the "ROM" Folder.

6-Replace the recovery file inside the "ROM" folder with the modified one u downloaded.

7-Press Firm Upgrade

8-Remove the battery and connect ur phone

Now u should have working chinese rom and a CWM recovery.

to change ur language > Menu button > Last option (Settings) > 13th option "A" (language & input) > 1st option ( Language) > u will find english

After all is done, i suggest u update ur rom with the Dekdee 4.1 rom http://www.4shared.com/zip/vxtY91-0/DEKDEE_COT_COT-I9300_OS_411.html using CWM recovery menu, its the best for this phone till now in my opinion.

Make sure u have the same phone in page 1, MTK6575_S01

Enjoy.

All credits go to all the people posted here in this thread, i just collected the links and ideas to help people having the same phone to smile :P

Remove your Sim Cards --- Memory Card --- and Battery

Press the Power button for half a minute... to discharge the remaining power in the phone...

Now open the flash tool and select the scatter file of V16 rom and not V22 as it will brick again...

After pressing download button CONNECT your device with usb ALSO make sure while connecting your device you PRESS the VOLUME UP button on phone other wise your phone won't be detected...

Please make sure you follow the last step... If this doesn't works then you need to open the phone completely and need to follow the checkpoint jumper method which I'll explain you later...

I have the same phone as in the pictured in the OP.

I did install the Lewa rom image and it works very well on my phone.

But I did not get the rom from the official lewaos website, but found it here:

http://www.i9300-mtk6575.my/2013/01/rom-lewa-for-samsung-galaxy-s3-mtk6575.html

And I did also install the custom cwm recovery from this thread, and the downloaded lewa rom was installed from recovery mode.

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 PM ----------

I would also like to know the location of the different antennas on this phone.

I know there is another thread that covers issues fixing weak gps signal on i9300 galaxy s3 clones. That thread also tells it can be enhances using a copper wire, and also some antenna fix using foil tape on different areas on the back of the phone. But the phone in that thread is slightly different and have the gps and wifi antennas in different places than our phone.

I notice there are some parts below the battery and at the bottom left side of the battery that have some white tape with traces, so I think they have some antenna function. But I dont want to mess with them unless I know that I'm doing it right.

Anyone?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hilari0:
Just a quick question before I buy my Note 10.1.. :)

I would want to have the 32GB version, but it's really hard to find around here while the 16GBG is available everywhere.. If I buy the 16GB and pop a 64GB SD card in it, can I use this for apps and all, specially the bigger games and such?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] programatix:
Well, it depends on the game. Most games which data file is downloaded by Google Play would be saved in your SDCARD partition. The same goes to most games which download its files upon first start up. So far, I only see Gameloft's Modern Combat 3 and Nova 3 downloaded their data files into EXTERNAL_SD\Android\Data. However newer Gameloft's games now used OBB files, which are saved in SDCARD\Android\OBB.

You could however root your device and write a script to bind folders from your external sd into sdcard, or use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1857070.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hilari0:
Ok, thanks. It looks like I'll be forced to get the 16 GB if I want to avoid ordering it. Local stores dont have the 32GB. Is it possible to remap the sd card so the internal is on external_sd and the external is on sdcard? Or would that break stuff?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erica_renee:
there is a app called bind directory that is very easy to use and will move the obb files to a directory on your external card. This i used on the nexus 7 before i sent it back because of Very poor build quality... Just get a class 10 name brand sd card.. some games will not run off the slower or generic cards.. Mine is a Patriot card.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wc74:
+1 I currently use Directory Bind, 16gb Note + 32gb sd card. Have mapped app data folders to external storage, so internal storge is barely used. You will need root though.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hilari0:
Thanks! I don't mind rooting the Note and Directory Bind sounds like it would do exactly what I want to do.. I assume Directory Bind would work fine with 64 GB cards as well? I've seen people having success in inserting 64 GB SD cards in the Note.. Planning to use Sandisk SD card.. I only trust Sandisk and Kingston on SD cards.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wc74:
64 gb card should be fine. I'm planning on buying 64 gb card myself soon, with all the large games I have purchased room is getting a little crowded on the 32 gb card I have.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MercuryStar:
The 32GB tablet is a gigantic price gouge, considering a 16GB MicroSD only costs around $15.

I don't think I could respect myself if I paid an extra $120 or whatever for it.

That said, apps and games that store data on your "SD card" will be using the internal storage, not your actual MicroSD card. In some apps you can configure the location for saving data however.

The bulk of my storage is actually videos and music, which of course there's no problem having on the external MicroSD card. That's just me though.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheDoolster:
Are you sure this is the new kindle fire hd. Because I tried it and it said your kindle cannot boot and gave me the option to re boot or factory reset. And since it has a locked boot loader you can not use fast boot.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onemeila:

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kinfauns:
Yes, the new KF's can be put into fastboot mode.

Yes, you can issue fastboot commands to it.

No, that does not mean you can flash it with a new recovery or ROM and have it boot.

Be careful what you do here. There are very few options left to you if you brick this device. If you don't know what you're doing and you don't think things through before playing around in fastboot, you may not like the results.
