the rom file you downloaded might be corrupted, so might need to redownload it

and you mentioned that odin didn't recognize your phone.. so did you install samsung driver? and tried different usb port? (note: usb3.0 won't work)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Janderson:
I always had problems with my Galaxy S3 when I had a MacBook Pro, using Windows from Bootcamp helped alot so I would suggest trying that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zelendel:
I much as I hate to say it but he is right. Android and Mac always seem to have random issues.

You most likely have a bad download. Could be many things that caused it. Wifi or cell data? Losing connection for even a sec can corrupt the download. Check the md5 sum to double check. Also double check antivirus as some like messing with stuff for no good bloody reason lol. Take you time and do the research. You will be back up and running soon.

Can you get back into recovery? If so then re download the ROM of your choice to an SD card. Install it from external storage after fully wiping (cache, dalvik, factory reset) I believe it is either volume up +home+ power. If not try volume down+home+power. Should set you straight
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tcarr:
thanks

thank am going to try and down load again and try other USB port to see but...

this is my problem now is that i can't get CWM to recognize my external SD to put a new ROM on there or even a factory one to just get it working... just says unable to mount or access.... but with windows you can still access the phone with the samsung drivers correct... to just drag and drop the new rom file onto the internal sd?

Stock ICS with a Brick free kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Valium10:
Few days I ago I flashed GB from my region on my note and decided to upgrade to ICS without flashing. But samsung servers refused to upgrade with phone and with keis. So, had to flash ICS. I think everyone who uses smart phones knows that Note have ICS. If they can not upgrade through Samsung they will blame you again. and ICS will putthem at risk of bricking the phone. SO ,,,,,,,

Here is my suggestion. As buyer knows that there is no warranty on phone, then I would tell them truth. and If they decide to have ICS (which samsung did upgrade from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4). Then flash it for them. And tell them the risk, or they can have the phone with same ROM you have installed on it.

Sorry for my bad English hahaha
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Shaaan:
New as in?

Also please stop providing the pit files. Many people use wron files and mess the device!

Odin gets the pit mapping from the device itself.!
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Deleted member 3415388:
The new version has MD5 Check, avoids many problems we have with previous versions.

A PIT files will change the names to avoid confusion, no need to use them.

Then my phone can't boot,can't got into recovery mode. I tried to flash JB via Odin and failed with showing "Pit file not found". So I used these Pit files and flashed that only. Now,it is OK. Thanks

Yea that did work for the GS3 no matter what the phone was under. Frozen, Aroma Freeze, Recovery, App crashes. No matter what on the GS3 if you held the power button down it would reboot the phone. If you were in recovery and it froze during an installation all you had to do was hold the power down and it would just reboot back to the recovery. But on this phone for some reason or another you cant.

Sick of this community, no matter what someone has to bash on someone else's queston. Peoples internet mentality is just rude plain and simple.

Is the nandroid still on the phone sdcard ? If yes :

Copy the boot.img file from the nandroid backup to the fastboot folder and flash it. Then go into recovery and do a full wipe (except sdcard) then go to the option backup & restore and restore the nandroid

But why are you opening multiple threads with the same questions over and over ! It is getting very annoying !

Following Samsung code, it could be a Wi-Fi only galaxy camera, like these:

Galaxy tab 7.0 Wi-Fi only -> GT-3110

Galaxy tab 7.0 Wi-Fi + 3G -> GT-3100

Galaxy tab 2 10" Wi-Fi only -> GT-5110

Galaxy tab 2 10" Wi-Fi + 3G -> GT-5100

...and many others :)

So maybe a cheaper GC because not everyone uses 3G and ours is also expensive.

[Android Apps and Games] alin.p:
Swiftkey doesn't have a theme engine. The only way is to decompile the apk and modify the pngs. Now it could be made but after Swiftkey Flow gets out of beta, modifying the apk would be illegal. So we better hope that they will develop a theme engine.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pharaoness:
Hello, a couple of days ago I received a pop-up notification in my notifications bar that said an update was available for my device. This was on Wednesday. Since I was at school, I was unable to update at the time since I didn't have access to WIFI and had two tests to write. During my tests I had to turn off my phone. When I did, I guess the update disappeared because when I turned my phone back on it never came back! I tried going into "settings", "about", "software" and hitting "check for updates", but it just keeps checking for updates continuously and never actually finds one. I really want that update! How can I get it back?

I'm on Rogers, and my model number is I317M. Anything else you need to know, just ask. I really want my update back! Please help, and thank you in advance!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Maybe it was pulled by your carrier or Samsung.

Try kies to update. But you'll have to download the whole rom again then. Also you can try sammobile for latest rom.

If you are on pre dll7 do it asap.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pharaoness:
Hello, thanks for your response. So if I try updating using Kies, I'll have to download my rom again (meaning I'd lose all my data)? I don't want to lose all my data! What is pre dll7? I'm actually on a rooted stock rom, does that make a difference? Sorry I just got this phone a couple of months ago, so I'm still new to it. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Pre dll7 means the firmwares released before dll7 like dll4 and dll5 and all starting from a. No you won't loose data.

It's just like a normal update just you have to download the whole firmware of 1gig again.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pharaoness:
Thanks again. Okay I'll try updating through Kies and see if that helps. Does this update work on devices with the stock ROM on them? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Which update ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Try clearing data from

Setting - application manager - all - software update (both)

Sometime it may able to get ota again

But even after getting update it will install successfully is a big question if your device is rooted.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pharaoness:
I'm not sure since I lost the update before being able to check it out, but I'm assuming it is the "multi-window" feature that many other Samsung Galaxy Note II phones have recently received, as it was a software update. Has your phone received it yet?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pharaoness:
Okay, so I should try clearing the data through the applications manager? You said both, but I saw you only mentioned clearing "software update" data, what do you mean? And I assume "ota" is the update, correct?

Why would having a rooted phone prevent me from receiving an update? When I had a Sony Xperia X10, it was rooted and I still received updates. I also have never heard of rooting impeding updates in any way. Was I misinformed??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
you may see 'software update' application two times under application manager, i said clear data for both

yes, you are mis informed at least you have heard such things for Note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pharaoness:
Hello, so I went into the application manager and tried clearing both data, but it didn't seem to helpp me get the update back =( Maybe the only other way is to update with Kies as was said earlier. I'll try that. Also, thanks for responding and trying to help with my issue, I appreciate it! =)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DualJoe:
Hallo,

i'm using SSH/SFTP for Android maintenance. On previous Android versions (4.1.2 and below) i simply used apps like 'root explorer' to remount /system to rw but starting with Android 4.2.1/CM10.1 (multi user environment) the remounted /system folder is only remounted for the app itself (root explorer) and not for any other app (including SFTP).

The only workaround i know so far is to remount the folder externally with 'adb remount' but that's a very uncomfortable solution.

Is there any solution how to remount /system rw for SSH/SFTP?

Is it possible to do an 'adb remount' from local shell?

What does 'adb remount' exactly and why does it affects all UIDs and not just one user like if done by (root) apps or local shell (mount -o remount,rw /system)?

Edit: Never mind... it must be some strange side effect with root explorer. If i use the shell command directly without ever using root explorer it seems to work. If is use a 'custom command' (mount -o remount,rw /system) in WinSCP it does work as well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gaius.baltar:
Did not test it, but first thing that comes to my mind is wrapping the sftp binary in a shell script which does the remount before calling the sftp binary. Then change the subsystem line in the sshd.conf to point to that shell-script. The drawback is that it will always be remounted, no more read-only access at all.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DualJoe:
That wouldn't be so dramatically since the RW would only affect the sftp process. That's the weird stuff i haven't understand yet (the per user mount state). But somehow it does work now when using ssh/shell.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] overthatscreen:
So I kind of soft bricked my phone last week. In desperation, I decided to hold down Volume Down and Power with the phone turned off. It seemed to have perform a Factory Reset by itself.

Now my P769 has been rooted since November on 10E and I'm still a rookie when it comes to thiss stuff. But that allowed me to find a way around the LG Setup Wizard issue that has been plauging a few of us.

Here's how I fixed it:

At the the LG Setup Wizard:

1. I logged into my WiFi Network and signed into my Google Acount.

2. By signing in to my Google Account, it popped up an update request. I used that request to enter the Play Store.

3. I made sure Super User was still installed.

4. I installed ES File Explorer.

5. Now I saved all of the bloatware that I had removed to my pc. So I copied it over to the SD Card.

6. I gave Root Permissions to ES File Explorer.

7. I copied all the bloatware and pasted it into the /system/apk directory.

8. Restarted the phone and watched as everything wet back to normal.

9. Just to be safe, I performed a Factory Reset from Settings and now I'm posting with the phone right now.

So after trying all the KDZ and LG Emergency stuff, this is what worked for me. I just had to step back and think outside the box.

Hope this helps anyone else who runs into this annoying problem.
