[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiirabello:
Hi I just making a terrible mistake in flashing my Samsung Galaxy S3 to XXELLA ROM - BTU. By virtue of being the accountant changed in a hurry to resolve the issue, just passing the file via ODIN PARAM.TAR, available on the first page of this topic, then I notice that it was only for the Samsung Galaxy S2. What happens now is that my phone is restarting of 5 in 5 minutes and it is no longer recognized in USB. Someone would have to provide the correct PARAM.TAR for Samsung Galaxy S3 (I9300)?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delsus:
I think you have seriously messed things up, the param.tar for the S2 contains a param.lfs file, I am not sure if there is a way to remove it or if it even exists on the S3.

If it exists then perhaps someone could make a dump of it from their device (I'm not sure how to) and you would just flash it via Odin.

If they can't then all you can do is take it to service, and learn the lesson, read everything on a page before flashing anything, and take paticular note of anything in bold letters.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
The param.lfs is flashed as raw image onto partition 4 of the NAND. i.e. /dev/block/mmcblk0p4.

You can try to reflash someone elses param.lfs, it cam be dumped on a command shell via

su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 of=/sdcard/param.lfs

and you can then either put it in a .tar again and flash via Odin, or flash manually via

su
dd if=/sdcard/param.lfs of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

after copying it to the internal storage.

I would dump mine but I'm not rooted right now :(

Hi guys, I made the same silly mistake. I flashed the param.tar to my i9300. Now my phone keep rebooting every few min. I tried to flash stock firmware in ODIN and also tried flashing the .PIT file. Still having the same problem after that. Someone please advise. Need help urgently. I am in sales trade. I can't afford to have my phone keep rebooting when I talking to my clients on phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kondronaute:
if i understand u have an galaxy S2

find an old firmware GB with pit .... (or villain firmware if u find it) and flash it after u can flash any firmware you want

be carefull with ICS file (never do reset with ICS if you have stock kernel)

good luck

Why are so many peeps flashing the TA param file when Chainey makes it clear its for the s2????, this file doesnt need to be used.

If you look and search on the forum under pre-rooted stock firmware you will find an emergency flash for the s3.

This is generally a concern from a friend and I will not be responding to any post or pms from this. (from anyone)

"

I have recently noticed that numerous developers have had their pages deleted because of in proper layout.

1st of all this makes sense that it should be in a the proper layout, but.......... big but here, does that mean delete it before they even get a warning. most developers are doing this on their own time and have their own fans to keep happy. Therefore because a simple source or gitcode is not in place right away, doesn't mean it should be deleted right away. Warn the people first, kinda makes the moderators look like their power hungry and also make people not want to be here. There's a fine line between being moderated or just an _____.

2nd not everyone is going to see the rules right away or may easiely forget to add something to it. This does not give it a right for deletion. Also, note there are many other developers that people have noticed that are no way in these rules and are still up? so makes u curious.....

Anyway I'm not bashing anyone on this, I just feel that the admin should start filtering some moderators for that bad ones. Every forum has at least one dud and it completely ruins the site.

As I said before, I will not be responding to anything from this post or pms. If I get banned fro simply posting a concern and not bashing,it just proves this even more. Or if the page gets deleted.

I think it will be good for the forum if you can see some other peoples views on this issue.

Best of luck with everything, with this hopefully positive feedback.

Threads can be removed from site until the OP is updated to work with the rules. Just because users cant see it doesnt mean it was deleted. There is always a warning given before a thread is deleted. As for keeping fans happy. Boy are you in the wrong place. This is no concern here as this is a Developers site made for and by developers to share work with each other.

For 2. There is no excuse for this. Everyone sees the rules when they join.

There's also a fine line between coming to this site to contribute and thinking you or your "friend" are above the rules! :)

Rules are rules and if a moderator thinks a thread should be unapproved or deleted then guess what?....there's most likely a reason for this :)

Also if you're a developer, an RD then you sure as hell better know the rules by now........I mean, they're clearly posted for everyone to see...lol

Oh and about fans, that shouldn't come into play! Whether you're a lone developer just starting out or have a mob of fanboys.....rules are rules! Just because this developer has 10000000000000 kernels or roms or whatever doesn't mean he should get special treatment. AGAIN......rules are rules and if a developer is not held to those rules then how are you going to enforce them on a junior member?

Another thing, from my experience if I have an issue with a moderator.......contacting the moderator committee is the best route! Going off on the moderator or starting a thread complaining about this or that isn't always best.......it will only lead to more threads being closed down and infractions/bans passed around...lol

JUST MY TWO CENTS.......
[General Topics] Papa Smurf151:
Pretty sure this was involving me since its being talked about in that g+ thread I was tagged in a have read.

This "rd" was sent a pm and explained why it was unapproved and couldve easily sent me a pm in response saying opps if U reappove I'll fix it real quick. Instead there was an insulting pm responded with and multiple bashing threads on site and off site yet the thread was still reapproved.

Forgetting something in an op is one thing. But blatantly doing it cause you don't have time or be cause you believe you are good enough to not have to comply with rules is another thing.

The nexus 4 section had multiple kernel devs get the same pm and everyone else complied with little to no fuss and went on their way.

Also this is a developers site so the whole fan thing means absolutely nothing here.

[HTC One S] kabufzk:
Hi!

Here is what happened to my One S (S4 version, about 6 months old). I unlocked the bootloader when i got the phone, installed cwm, afterwards twrp (2.3.1) and was running several sense and non-sense roms without any issues. Till last week:

I installed "BAKED Black Bean" in twrp and was using it for a few days without issues. One night i wanted to turn on the flashlight to search for something on the floor, and BAM: phone restarted and got stuck in a bootloop. I tried to enter recovery, but still bootlooping. Reflashing twrp or cwm did not work either. Still couldn't enter recovery. Then i managed to enter twrp again by erasing the cache in fastboot (fastboot erase cache) but now external storage was unmountable.

Here is what i tried to recover the phone:

* relocked bootloader

* ran RUU (RUU_Ville_U_Vodafone_AT_1.78.169.2_Radio_0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L_release_258382_signed.exe)

* cleared storage in hboot (this fixed the unmountable external storage)

* factory reset in hboot

Now the phone booted fine, external storage was working. BUT since then the phone is behaving strange. After a few hours it responds very laggish when i press the power button (takes up to 5 seconds for the screen to turn on, touch screen is irresponsive for a couple of seconds) and occasionally it reboots when i press the power button and is stuck in bootloop again. I already ran the RUU again, but still the same issues.

I'd really appreciate any ideas regarding this.
[HTC One S] usaff22:
Hi, if you can, I'd try to start a logcat, then attempt to recreate the issue while it is running. Then post the logcat, and we might be able to see what's causing the sluggishness and random reboots.
[HTC One S] kabufzk:
thanks, i will post a logcat as soon as possible.

another thing i found out: when the phone is plugged in (charger or computer) it switches on normally. just when unplugged it's making troubles. :confused:

oh, and just to mention: i did not install anything on the phone. just the ruu, no apps nothing. just did the initial setup. so any 3rd party apps causing the problem can be ruled out.
[HTC One S] GuestX0019:
sounds like you did a lot correctly

Are you wiping system as part of your wipes

You could try reformatting sdcard also

more issues:

- when opening the camera app, it takes 7-10 seconds until the picture shows up

- screen rotation is not working. when i try to calibrate the g-sensors they are not reacting at all

i think i will try my luck with warranty repair. what are my chances with an unlocked bootlader?

Have you done a logcat yet? You can try warranty, yes.

Hello,

my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 had ICS and I rooted it a few month ago...this weekend I got the update to jelly bean and my root is gone....or I don´t know how to "reactivate" it...so my question is, how can I root it again? same preference how in the ICS rooting?

or doesn´t I have to root it again?

thanks for your help.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ottonet:
The simplest way is by installing (and using) Mobile Odin pro, that you can purchase on Play Store for 4.75 Euros

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5tb2JpbGVvZGluLnBybyJd

With the "Everroot" method provided by that app you can make rooted any official rom without the flash counter being incremented.

I did that last saturday and everyting went on as a charm.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bavisirahul:
Dude can you please explain the above method step by step after installing ODIN Pro

I am new to that.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Anderson:
Unfortunately Mobile Odin Pro requires the device to be rooted beforehand. If you have already upgraded your firmware and lost root it is now too late to use the Mobile Odin method.

You'll have to find another way. I suppose you could flash back to the ICS stock ROM, root that, then install Mobile Odin Pro and install the JB firmware using that.

I don't know if the ICS root tools work on JB (I used the Mobile Odin method described above so I didn't need to find out).
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeftyGR:
As with any other device... If you root and then accept an ota, you are more than likely going to loose root. I'm sure there will be a way to re root straight from the jb ota soon. But other than that, you're gonna have to flash a stock rooted ROM if you expect to keep root access.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kfirbr:
After upgrade my P3110 I also lost my root. Old method was gone. I use CF-Root and it worked. Steps are simple:

1. download CF-Root from http://download.chainfire.eu/239/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root

2. Extract the zip file

3. Put your tablet in download mode (easy mode: press volume up and so power button) after enter the download mode and plug the usb cable

4.Using ODIN 1.85 select only PDA and leave all the rest alone, so point do the extracted file

Root is back. Maybe you have to install BusyBox (Google Play).

That´s all.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Anderson:
Good for you!

Thanks for confirming it works (I suspected it might). Now, buy Mobile Odin Pro and you need never worry about losing root again. :)
