The problem with the law is that it works sl-o-o-o-o-o-w.

If you have to fight for your right to warranty repairs in court, you'll probably win. But that can take many years, especially when the seller appeals the first judgement and drags things out in the even slower EU courts of appeal. By the time the judges have done their job you've won the right to have an old obsolete phone repaired that you've already replaced twice by newer models. You probably can't even find that old phone anymore under all the spider webs.

Thank you guys for all your help, I was able to get Motorola to cough up a new phone for me.

Details posted on my thread, thanks again guys.

[LG Optimus Black] MalarKeY007:
So, what about the G5 H850?

LG says "Once your phone is unlocked, it will no longer be covered by LG warranty."

It doesn't talk about root or anything, but about unlocking the bootloader.

Since they stated this: Can I still use LG warranty, based on EU 1999 Directive or anything that I missed?

It will get an infinite loop since the seller needs to give the warranty and the LG will deny it?

There is a way to get the warranty?

The product has 2 problems, Screen Burn in and GPS, it is a hardware problem, not caused by the root.
[LG Optimus Black] gouster3:
In our country sellers are well protected against it.

The mobile operator refuses to sell the phone while you don't, sign conditions in Which it is stated that the guarantee does not apply when you do something with system.

:(

Now i have Xperia XZ but i can't even use it. Everything usable needs root. (e.g. GLTools, Sixaxis enabler, Xposed...)

[LG Optimus Black] rogier666:
The EU anticipated that sellers would try to dodge the law by making you sign law-evading small print, so they added a safety net.

EU directive 1999/44/CE says:

(22) Whereas the parties may not, by common consent, restrict or waive the rights granted to consumers, since otherwise the legal protection afforded would be thwarted...

So whatever contract you may have signed, you still keep the two year statutory warranty. You simply can't sign that right away.
[LG Optimus Black] afigienas:
This topic is pretty stupid. it quotes law that have nothing to do with title or this topic. Show me quote that says that installing firmware doesn't void warranty. Im unable to find.
[LG Optimus Black] KFCsecretservice:
It's 2023, Samsung still refuses warranty on rooted phones. The carrier (in my case reseller) does the same. EU phone, bought in the EU by EU citizen. Somethimes I ask myself wondering why we still purchase those products.

[Nexus 10 Android Development] zedomax:
Try pressing power, volumeup, and volumedown, all together until you see the blue menus, once you see that, do a factory reset and reboot.

doesnt that bring me to the bootloader?

edit: now i cant mount sd card in recovery after doing this....i think this is why its not booting....any help?

Don't we need do the following code before unroot?

fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
[Nexus 10 Android Development] c0t0d0s2:
if you really bricked yours as badly as I did, you might have to re format one or more partitions.

Fastboot format partitionname

Then fastboot flash partitionname imagefilename.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] zedomax:
Don't think so, it overwrites everything so i don't think it matters.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] phroghollow:
I've fully flashed the factory image and it just sits there seemingly looping.

I've flashed the stock recovery, from Stockroms . net, the bootloader and image from the Google Developers page and it still just sits there.

Anyone have any ideas?

I've also tried erasing all partitions and then flashing again. Right now i`m willing to try anything
[Nexus 10 Android Development] H3g3m0n:
Why not link to the official source?

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mantaray
[Nexus 10 Android Development] espionage724:
Also doesn't the official archive even come with a batch file that does all the necessary commands automatically? The latest pre-4.2 image from Google for the Nexus 7 did anyway.

The batch file I mentioned above for the N7 did this, and a guide somewhere else written before said that this was necessary due to some bug in the past (I guess something wasn't being overwritten properly).
[Nexus 10 Android Development] H3g3m0n:
Hmm, I did just the 'fastboot -w update image-mantaray-jop40c.zip' since I didn't want to mess with the bootloader, just reflash the stock rom.

Got the red triangle with !, rebooted and still got it, but after a few minutes it rebooted by itself and worked. Hopefully it was just doing some kind of first boot thing or wiping stuff.

EDIT: Also seems to have flashed over my recovery, but no biggie.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:

Not working...

So I somehow bricked my N10 (all I did was flash CWM recovery, and then I couldn't mount /sdcard and it bootloops) so I tried this.

format?

fastboot help file doesn't show format, it is erase <partition>

Is that the correct command?

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------

So I was kind of stuck at same spot you were I believe, where after the cache the device autorebooted and then hung on the splash screen.

I booted into the (now) stock recovery and formatted and wiped cache and it booted up fine. Hope you have the same luck.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] Hatman41:
I did exaclty what the OP said and I am at the boot up boot image of the X that is multi color and it just loops there.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:
I'm still stuck in bootloop. Entering recovery from fastboot brings up the laying android icon with the red triangle/exclamation mark.

What steps do I take next?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] Hatman41:
Press power and volume up and let go, you'll get various recovery options. Select wipe data and confirm. It'll wipe, then reboot.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:
Looks like today I'm more stupid than usually. I tried pressing power and volume up both in fastboot and in recovery mode, neither gave me recovery options. I know I am close but I can't nail it...
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:
Is anything here useful to unbrick the tablet?

I'm thinking erase might be helful but what command do I use?
[Nexus 10 Android Development] espionage724:
What padest.com posted earlier would technically be all the available partitions to erase:

And technically, then running the commands needed to flash the ROM (Google's own batch file below):

Should put the device in a factory state (bootloader still unlocked though). I haven't tried the erase commands listed above myself on the Nexus 10, so I have no idea how it would play out (doing this on my Nexus 7 worked fine though, but I'm a bit curious as to why Google didn't put the erase commands on the batch file for the Nexus 10)
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:
Thank you. I was able to erase running the commands you posted, I then ran the batch file but I am still in bootloop. I noticed the whole process lasted ~10 seconds shorter than the one from the original post, as if something is missing...

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:08 PM ----------

I was unable to find the variable t make it work so I went into the Nexus4 toolkit and placed Nexus 10 factory files and then proceeded to flash as if I'm flashing the stock rom and it worked. Don't ask me how but it worked. Thanks everyone.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] mag13:
I have done all the steps from the video, but I`m in bootloop.

What can I do next? Erase? Format?

It would be nice if you can help me.
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:
Same problem I had, bootloop.

From the Toolkit thread:

If that doesn't work, use the erase command to delete all 5 partitions via fastboot command. And if that doesn't work, go here and download the kit, then flash factory images via the toolkit. If you can afford it, donate to mskip, he is an amazing contributor.

[Nexus 10 Android Development] mag13:
I can not get these recovery options you are talking about. If I press Power and then Vol up the Nexus reboots
[Nexus 10 Android Development] t-mizzle:
erase cache system userdata recovery and boot partitions, type "fastboot erase cache" for example, without quotation marks to erase cache. Then try the method from the first post.. If that doesn't work, get the toolkit from the link

Ultimately, download the toolkit even if you get to recover without using it and donate if you can.

I found out what I was doing wrong. I had to press Power and Vol up in Stock recovery. Thanks a lot.

Okay so here is the solution to you guys have the "ERROR: usb_write failed with status e00002be" on Mac's.

I had this myself and it took me a while to sort it out but this is what you do.

Download the latest Android SDK for Mac build from Google and extract it so you have adt-bundle-mac (I extracted mine to the desktop)

Then go here /Users/Yourname/Desktop/adt-bundle-mac/sdk and copy the platform-tools folder and rename it to whatever you want it to be called say android.

I don't know what they changed with 4.2 but something obviously changed with Mac's since there are 100s of reports with this error popping up with people flashing.

Step 1

~/Desktop/android/adb reboot bootloader

~/Desktop/android/fastboot oem unlock

Step 2 (This is the latest Nexus 4 build im flashing here, I placed the image files from the zip within the Android folder)

cd "/Users/Yourname/Desktop/android"

./fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-mako-makoz10l.img

./fastboot reboot-bootloader

./fastboot flash radio radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.33.img

./fastboot reboot-bootloader

./fastboot -w update image-occam-jop40d.zip

Step 3

~/Desktop/android/adb reboot bootloader

~/Desktop/android/fastboot oem lock

Anyways hope this works for you guys if you're having the same error.

Hey folks... I've been coming here and playing with everyone's hard made roms for some time and would like to say thanks. I also need some help.

I have a samsung vibrant, first galaxy out. I didn't use it for a year or so. I updated recently and subscribed to Virgin. When I updated I noticed the contacts and calender didn't sync well with facebook. As this is fairly important to me I went back to GB and now my phone will ring once and hang up, the video player constantly crashes... I also have several other small issues. I have looked but cannot find a rom old enough for the galaxy that will put it in a state that kies will update it. I've tried several roms and kies will connect but not update as the roms are all newer versions that the official release. I'm hoping somebody can tell me exactly which files to use with odin to wipe, repartition and reprogram the phone to a state that kies will give it the official update and hopefully solve my issues.

Thanks.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GilaMonster1:
I am a bit new to Android and the GS3. But honestly I am already sick and tired of waiting for Jelly Bean as well as some of the problems of Touchwiz. So I think CM10 is the next thing for me. But I am unsure of the differencr between Touchwiz and CM10. For example I love the quick settings panel, the brilliang camera app and settings, Wi-Fi direct sharing (sbeam) , as well as the smart dialer and decent task manager. I just want to make sure everything will be better.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cehf:
it's your call. i'd say you should try it out, and if you don't like it, you can always go back to stock touchwiz. just remember to read the op and the last few pages of the thread to make sure there aren't any unwanted problems to deal with. and of course, backup your current rom.

sent from my I747
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Organized_Chaos:
Stock Jelly Bean has been leaked. This will give you all the Jelly Bean goodness without resorting to a custom ROM.

You could also install the touchwiz launcher on CM10 if you like the TouchWiz UI. (I don't)

You can always flash back to stock ICS if you don't like where you end up. Just read the original post and make sure you understand what you're doing so you don't end up with a brick.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GilaMonster1:
So if I tried it and didn't like it, I could just go back to normal and get updates OTA and everything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] highdiver_2000:
Not all S3 are identical. The radio interface are slightly different, region wise. So yes , you can download a Samsung stock ROM off the Internet, it will not be exactly the same. Call and battery performance will be affected slightly.

You can use a backup to restore, it is the closest you can get to original, but rooted.

That it's the complete picture.

Things I like about touchwiz.

Movable home screens.

Little red flags on home screen icon showing unread status.

Social hub for Twitter and Facebook.

A working music player

Swipe right to call, left to SMS

Task manager, less of an issue in ICS and later.

Good alarm app

Best battery performance without tweaking.
