[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pirati81:
Try removing the battery and then try the 3 button combo to enter download mode. I thing Odin failed because when you tried to install F4 it changed partitions and when you wanted to downgrade to jw4 you did not repartition with 512 pit.

When you enter download mode remember to install the 3 file stock rom with 512 pit and repartition checked.

After installing the stock rom before proceeding with jellybean remember to backup your efs folder ( you can search xda dev how to do that)

I strongly recommend going with Cyanogenmod 10 stable. Its very fast and with the latest semaphore kernel runs like a beast.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grigoris1993:
after i made it jvu i wanted to make it jw4.. it was doing something else.. i forgot the names now.. and then the screen just went off

removed the battery many times but nothing. i am charging the phone in case it's the battery :/ i closed also odin when i saw it was doing nothing..

i think i did a serious damage on the phone. If it gets fixed i will try cm10.. right now.. nothing :/
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grigoris1993:
I think Odin crashed my phone

because i changed 3-4 custom roms in some hours..

i saw some threads about how to put it back in recovery mode but nothing..

screen is black.. not responding at all : (
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pirati81:
I think your battery died in the middle of the flashing process. When you charge the battery does it show the battery indicator charging ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grigoris1993:
nothing at all..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pirati81:
Then basically your battery died in the middle of flashing process, you can try with another full battery and try to enter download mode by using the 3 button combo. If it does not it means you have to use a USB jig to access download mode. Once you access download mode remember to have a fully charged battery before flashing
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grigoris1993:
so when the battery dies in the middle of flashing... i can't charge it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pirati81:
Possibly not, you have to try with a fully charged battery before flashing anyway. I think if you touch the phone while on power and the battery is warm maybe is charging. If there is no sign of life or there is no heat at all maybe is not charging. You still have to try to enter download mode with a fully charged battery, keep trying.

You have to try the dowload mode using an USB jig.

You can't broke this mode by flashing your phone, if an USB Jig don't work, you really have an hardware problem.

my pc makes sounds when i connect the phone.. then the sound that it got dc'ed

i don't think i will find a jig here.. nor i can make one.

i will give it to samsung service center and pay them..

I checked with Samsung.. they have asked me to get the motherboard replaced and it will cost around 8K...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markey97:
You could have a look at the wiki maybe theres a guide now to recover from a brick

But if this don't work you have to have it to guarantee or change motherboard

Hope i helped

i want to.. but they want paypal, and paypal is not supported in the country i live -.-

i actually wanna do the homemade jig. my phone at least gives a sign of life when i connect it to the pc.. then the dc sound

if i also have to replace the motherboard then i prefer to gather money and buy a new phone
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellsBells:
I recently had to restore my phone from a backup of a previous version and then update to the 11/18 release (I was on this release prior to the backup). Prior to restoring, I had the full notifications in the drawer, i.e. gmail displayed nearly a full email, sms displayed the quick reply button and a call back button, etc. Now I only get one or two lines, no more expanded notifications. Does anyone know how to get those back? Should I reinstall the ROM and/or kernel?

Thanks

Hi Folks

heimdall.7z - 334.63 KB

I thought I'd continue in the same vein as my previous post and add to the Pi's arsenal of android related tools , So here is the Open Source Samsung Flashing utility Heimdall.

There's nothing special about this build, I just cloned the git sources and compiled them on Rapbian. Easy as, well , Pi I suppose :D

you'll have to install either libusb-1.0-0 or libusb-1.0-0-dev using apt-get.

[ EDIT: ] Do It yourself!

Just for completeness here's the steps if you want to build it yourself using Raspbian

Open a terminal window

sudo apt-get install git-core libusb-1.0-0-dev
cd ~/
git clone git://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/Heimdall.git
cd Heimdall/libpit
./configure
make
cd ../heimdall
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ~/
rm -rf Heimdall

The configure -> make -> make install workflow is used by a large number of linux tools this make compiling most things for the Pi on the Pi as simple as the steps above. Sometimes finding where the official source code is for a package is the hardest step.
[Raspberry Pi General] shimp208:
Awesome work! Having both ADB and now Heimdall working definitely opens up some really interesting possibilities for the RPi.
[Raspberry Pi General] InverseSandwich:
I love you trevd!
[Raspberry Pi General] sdeneefe:
did you try it on any phones?

Hi,

I'm glad to see someone else considering using a Pi for this. Did you try using it on any phones?

I don't have a linux or windows machine handy, just a mac (which has some problems with heimdall), so I thought I'd try the Pi for rooting an old Epic 4G (a Galaxy S phone), in order to upgrade to CM10. Unfortunately I ran into two problems:

1) When I plug the phone in (not just the USB cable), the Pi would sometimes completely restart. This didn't happen every time. I think this may be due to power issues (perhaps it was trying to charge, and the Pi couldn't produce the right current), I didn't try a powered hub (I don't have one). But it also could be a software bug crashing the system. Debugging crashes like this is a little beyond my expertise, though if I get some time and can reproduce it I might try some more.

2) I was only able to get heimdall to detect the phone once. Other times it said "no device detected". When it was detected, I flashed clockwork recovery mod (or at least I typed the commands to do so), and it seemed to work (as far as I could tell), but when I started in recovery mode it was a stock recovery. Perhaps it didn't finish? I'm not sure what happened, since heimdall treated it as a success and the phone restarted.

Anyway, I thought I'd give my experience in case anyone else saw either of these problems too (or knew the answers). And I'd be interested to hear if someone had no problems.

[Raspberry Pi General] Endoroid:
I haven't tried this tool at all as I use my pi as a htpc, but i can tell you from experience setting that up that power can be a major issue. I didn't have reboots, but rather all my usb devices would quit working, even powered ones(and the only thing drawing power was a keyboard dongle) and my power supply is supposed to be rated for 2A.

I picked up a 20$ 7 port hub that works almost flawlessly (the 7th port doesn't agree with it). I would recommend picking one up.

Just my 2 cents

Also you don't mention what os you are running but try checking /var/log if it happens again. This is where logs generally get generated
[Raspberry Pi General] trevd:
Hi sdeneefe,

I never did get round to have a go myself :o.....but it's top of my new years resolutions list :D I've got a galaxy S lying around the place to have a go with so I'll let you know my results.

Thanks for sharing sdeneefe, I'm no electronics expert, but a educated stab in the dark and given the fun I had myself finding a stable setup combination I'd be tempted to agree with Endoroid, power does seem to be in the hands of the gods. Personally I could not find a charging plug the would supply enough power to keep the HDMI output stable on my monitor.....every other display I've tried works fine apart from the intended main one, partly to do with the monitor I think because it also has trouble with MHL connections. I eventually solved my power woe's by using my computer's USB as the power source.

EDIT: Initial Tests seems OK although I had to run with sudo because I've not configured udev but device is detected and I've pulled and printed the pit. This is both through a powered hub and jacked straight into the device I'll try flash a rom in a bit...... because doesn't everyone spend NYE flashing roms and posting on xda, :D
[Raspberry Pi General] AdamOutler:
wanted to drop this Linux 64 Heimdall 1.4 RC1 built from today's source debian package somewhere

http://d-h.st/2Vj
[Raspberry Pi General] AdamOutler:
packaged in deb format.... Please let me know if this works.. i had to guess the arch code.

If this doesn't work, it's the arch, and I can repackage properly. I'm working on getting CASUAL support up on the Raspi.
[Raspberry Pi General] trevd:
No Dice on the arch, My Real Pi was doing not playing nice... but the emulators fails with this

package architecture (armv6l) does not match system (armhf)
[Raspberry Pi General] AdamOutler:
I kinda figured... do this:

dpkg -i --force-architecture /path/to/heimdal.deb

I will fix the arch later tonight.
[Raspberry Pi General] trevd:
heimdall depends on libc6 (>= 2.4).
heimdall depends on libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1).
heimdall depends on libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1).
heimdall depends on libusb-1.0-0 (>= 2:1.0.8).

Got some dependency version issues, Is that something you want to/can deal with automatically? or just tell the user to upgrade! I'm not overly familiar with what debs and dpkg etc are fully capable of.... I tend to let apt and aptitude do all the heavy lifting :)

Could always build a static one I suppose. :good:
[Raspberry Pi General] AdamOutler:
I just placed this version of Heimdall into my CASUAL repository. Here is a proper arch Heimdall deb file packaged with the binary from the OP.

https://android-casual.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/GUI/src/CASUAL/resources/heimdall/heimdall_armv6.deb

dpkg -i heimdall_armv6.deb

This will always be up-to-date with CASUAL's capabilities because this is my source repository, so it's a good link. Let me know if there's any problems.
[Raspberry Pi General] nebular:
Hello, this stopped being usable time ago i think. I'm also having big problems compiling heimdall on current 3.12.35+/3.18.3+|4+ kernel Raspbian on rasPi B+, seems to be a libc dependancy problem. Could you please provide a new link instead of android-casual googlecode site? Thank you very much

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mothemom:
(caveat: I am new to android and have done searches within xda and general online searches and while I think I have the answer, I'd love input from those who know for certain).

As the title states: does the HD+ CM10 sd card boot require rooting the HD+? Optimally, I would love it if it doesn't so that I, in my utter newbishness, could jump into android without voiding my warranty.

Thanks! :)
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fanoush:
No it doesn't need rooting. It is independent from the system in internal flash.

You insert the card, it boots CM10, you remove it, you have old untouched original system :)

I need to reset my Archos 80 to factory default; How can I? I have erased the default fw and I am using the rooted fw in developer mode.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -AngelOfDarkness-:
load the official archos fw from there site and flash it by the sde .. then remove sde from it self...

AOD
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neur0mans3r:
Actually, there is no need to remove SDE. When you flash the stock fw, the tablet will default to stock fw. You can have problems re-installing SDE if it's ever removed.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 55mls:
If you have already installed the "official" SDE (from the Archos website), then the device is already permanently "watermarked" that their SDE has been installed (even if you select to remove it later), and there's also something about messing up the capabilities of DRM protected files. That was all mentioned on the Archos website, and was also why I didn't want to install their SDE at any point.

Then, they royally messed up everyone else with their firmware 4.0.24, .25, .26 (and who knows how many in the future) by not allowing anyone to install their SDE after they had already upgraded to those newer (official stock) firmware versions. They also did not allow ever going back to install a previous (official stock) firmware that worked correctly (like 3.2.80 or 4.0.7). Only hope left then was to install an UN-official SDE and older rooted firmware.

So, if you have installed the official Archos SDE, then you really can not every go back to a fully factory condition because their SDE "watermarked" the device so that they will know it was installed at some point in time.

Anyway, to get back to anywhere near factory...

Start up in Recovery, remove SDE, then re-boot into Recovery and do a full re-format, and copy over the last "official" firmware (from the Archos website) that had ever been loaded on it before (if you are lucky that may have been 4.0.7, otherwise guess you'll have to use 4.0.26 until they come out with a newer one).

Or, as mentioned, just install the latest new firmware from the Archos website and just leave the SDE part alone. It should automatically boot up into the last installed official Archos firmware unless you specifically go into the SDE and remove that firmware's kernel (to cause it to boot into a rooted ROM instead).

Hope that makes some sense to anybody else reading this LOL. Unlike everyone else here I normally do not do what everyone says when installing a custom ROM... by that I mean I do NOT remove the kernel in SDE, so mine always boots into stock unless I actually start up in SDE and tell it to start a "developer" or custom ROM kernel and firmware. I won't need to do that anymore if/when Archos release a newer firmware that actually works correctly. And, if/when that happens I won't need SDE anymore either (because I have no need, want, or desire for any "root" functionality).
[HTC Droid DNA] Ahazin:
Hi guys, ive recently got a nexus 10 and deleted the default music that came with it from the play music store and then added my own. As you probably already know this means I can only listen to this music when I have a wifi connection which is fine. I also added a few albums on the device to listen to when I am offline, but I thought I would experiment and for one of my albums I choose the option "keep on device" from the nexus 10 menu. I can now listen to this album when my device is offline as I suspected I would but I dont seem to find the actual album on my nexus 10 anywhere and I am simply curious as to where it would be stored?

Its not in my music folder on the device and I done a search on the whole device and still couldnt find it. Does anyone know where it is actually stored? One final thing to note is that when I did decide to keep on device it took quite a while to download which I didnt think would be the case as I have a good connection.

Anyway, looking forward to reading your replies.

Thanks.

You cant, the S10 does not have a working fastboot mode (at best you can enter it only from a working rom, it still does not respond normally to fastboot commands)

After the flash, it stayed on (with black lit screen) until (i guess) the battery drained and now if I plug it into the charger that came with the phone, it just shows red led, then the led disappears after a couple of minutes. The phone cant enter flash or fast boot modes, cannot hard reset too.

I am just looking for a way to charge the phone's battery manuaaly i mean without the cables that came with it so I can find out if I can enter fast boot or flash mode or even turn the phone on.
