Hi. Ok...long story short. Its not bricked. I can use it. Using it currently as a media player stripped of all non-essential system apps. Or so I thought.

Semaphore_2.5.0b

DarkyROM v10.4.2 XWJW1

Firmware 2.3.6

I uninstalled some apps. Nothing system critical or so I thought. The following errors are now happening:

1. Whenever I enable wireless or launch Play Store I get the Google Services Framework gapps has stopped unexpectedly error....a few times then it stops coming up.

2. My Windows 7 64bit says "USB Device not recognised"

3. Device Manager reports the device has an error

4. Unable to install drivers from anywhere, Windows says I already have the most upto date driver - probably from previous installs

5. Odin does not see the phone when connected even when its in Download Mode

6. Rebooting to CWM v5.0.2.7 gives the following list of errors:

E:failed to open /etc/recovery.fstab (No such file or directory)

E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/command]

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/log]

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/last_log]

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/command]

7. I can't Wipe or Factory Reset or any of those things because I get similar errors to the above, i.e. can't open, or can't mount, or unknown volume...etc

8. I can't install a zip from the SD Card because it won't mount the SD Card.

9. I can't mount the SD Card - it just returns to the main CWM screen and lists the above errors again.

I have exhausted my search on the internet. You guys are my last hope of redemption. So I'm just praying that someone out there has an answer and takes pity on my poor condemned soul before the flames get any higher!

Wouldn't the problem be fixed by attempting to install the rom via odin? I know you said it doesn't show up, my thoughts are that you should make sure you have the updated samsung kies drivers installed.

If that didn't I might consider updating CWMR and then reflashing?
[General Questions and Answers] bbrad:
Reflash gapps and wipe all data in cwm lol you should have flashed if you didn't know what you were doing
[General Questions and Answers] captain_kirkoid:
Well that was a really really really unhelpful reply. Thank you though.

You might have noticed I can't connect the phone to Odin because Windows is not recognising the device and if you read my post you'd see I already tried reinstalling the drivers which are upto date as far as Windows is concerned.

Thanks though.
[General Questions and Answers] captain_kirkoid:
Brilliant. Very insightful. Maybe you shouldn't be using these forums if you can't provide support or at least a semblance of help instead of criticism and a holier than thou attitude. I'm assuming you're perfect.

I didn't think any of the apps were system critical. And I made that assumption as an ex-developer with over 15 years experience of low level assembler, C++ and Java development.

If you'd read my post properly you'd notice I can't flash or wipe.

But thanks though. It's nice to know people like you are still plaguing the forums.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Johnny Cakes:
There are some threads on this for other models, but I am looking for info on how to remove wireless charging notification for my Sprint version. I assume this will require root and I have no problem with that.

Here's the scenario. I modified my Sprint phone to accept the Verizon wireless charging rear cover, while preserving NFC. (Email me if you want the link cuz I don't have sufficient privileges to post it).

Placing the phone on the charger gives a pop-up notification and tone that wireless charging has begun. Then wireless charging is complete (100%) and charging stops. Then the phone sits on the charger for a few minutes, drops to 99% full and wireless charging begins again, meaning another beep. This is an endless cycle and the constant beeps are driving me crazy.

I have turned off all volumes, all notifications, placed on silent, etc., but the "Starting Wireless Charging" tone and notification is still present.

Really would like to get this fixed as inductive charging is awesome, but not if the phone is gonna beep every few minutes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
Does it bulge the battery cover slightly?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Just look for the mod to remove full charge notification, I believe all the different charging notis are housed in the same location. The VZW disable mod *should* also work as long as you do it manually and don't flash any zips with their updater script included.

I like to break stuff! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Johnny Cakes:
@freeza: I did a 10 minute mod to the Sprint phone using cooper conductive tape, so no soldering or opening the phone. Now it accepts the Verizon Wireless Charging back cover. So the cover is stock, its just Verizon, not Sprint. I can't post the link to my how-to (XDA rules), but just Google for "How to EASILY Add Inductive/Wireless Charging to your Sprint Phone Using Verizon Cover & Keeping NFC" and it is the first link.

@EViL-KoNCEPTz: I just successfully rooted today, never had the motivation before now but I absolutely have to get rid of this notification.

In researching this, I found the post quoted below -- by Freeza coincidentally. So now I just need to learn how to: (1) Get to the /com directory (that directory doesn't seem to be listed in my root explorer app); (2) learn how to compile; (3) learn how to push the compiled file to the phone and (4) learn how to change permissions. Of course, I'll also have to locate the "wireless charging begin" file, which is hopefully in the same location as you predict.

Lots to learn. Sucks being such a noob.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Johnny Cakes:
Actually, I'm not overly concerned with the pop-up message (""WIRELESS CHARGING: You have placed the device within range. Now charging wirelessly."). I really just need to suppress the corresponding alert tone.

With my new found root access, I looked around (system/media/audio/ui) and found many audio files, but not the one that is triggered when wireless charging begins. Should I be looking somewhere else or does this tone not use an ogg sound file?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Johnny Cakes:
SOLVED

I feel a little stupid, but will post this anyway in case someone else has the same problem. The beep was coming from the wireless charging pad, not the phone. Who knew? Opened up the pad, pulled the tiny speaker, put it back together and problem solved.

Note that you do have to delete charger_connection.ogg from /system/media/audio/ui to get rid of the phone sounds, or simply turn down the volume on notifications.

Many thanks to freeza who helped me back channel; he was the one who figured this out. He also created a mod to suppress the "wireless charging has begun" pop-up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gosnik:
I had the same problem

I recently came across the XPosed framework and have developed a module for it that:

Prevents the screen from turning on when a charger is connected

Disables the wireless charging popup

Disables the beep when a charger is connected

Prevents the screen from turning on when the battery is full

I will post a module once I've got past the min 10 post limit on dev threads

In the meantime I hope this helps...

[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
Hey everyone, new to the DNA (bought last Friday) and I'm totally a fan. The phone is awesome. However I'm having an issue where I'm having to manually go in and sync my Gmail to the phone. It doesn't automatically pull the Gmail down. I've made sure that sync is set to auto and that all the correct boxes are checked.

Currently stock running 4.1.1 (Software Number: 2.04.605.2 71ORD)

Gmail App Version: 4.2.1

Any help would be greatly apprciated.

Thanks,

Brocja01
[HTC Droid DNA] ickedmel:
That's pretty weird I don't have any problems with gmail sync. Do you maybe have an app installed that is controlling sync times ?

Edit: I'm also on stock btw.
[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
I thought maybe it was the sync notification app you install for Nova, so I un-installed it and rebooted. Still not working. I'd hate to have re-install everything.
[HTC Droid DNA] cc16177:
I think you covered this in your first post but have you actually gone into accounts under the normal android settings and made sure that your Gmail is supposed to sync?

It sounds stupid but it's somehow happened to me a few times where the Gmail sync box was unchecked.
[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
Nope, it is definitely checked. I'm wondering if it is something with my account. My nexus 7 isn't syncing either.
[HTC Droid DNA] Andro X:
Try going into settings and apps then clear the data for gmail and then open the app back up to let it log you back in.
[HTC Droid DNA] cue_32:
If you suspect it your account (which is unlikely), check on your computer to see if it syncs.
[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
I'm getting emails on my computer just fine. It is just my two devices that I'm not getting mail on. Factory resetting my phone this morning, will see if does anything.
[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
I've also added my secondary gmail account to the device and that one syncs, if I send an email to both accounts, i get a notification for my secondary account but I don't get one for my primary account. Any thoughts? Would this be something to hit google up on? Is there a number I could call?
[HTC Droid DNA] Andro X:
Did you try clearing the app data like I suggested? This has happened to me before on different devices and clearing the data always fixed it for me.

Sent from my HTC Droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
Most definitely tried that, also factory reset the phone. Trying turning the auto sync on and off a few times and that didn't help either. It is the craziest thing. Which I could figure it out.
[HTC Droid DNA] Fastlivin:
Obvious things to try that I'm sure you kick yourself if you forgot any one of them:

- Under the specific account settings:

- Notifications are indeed checked?

- Gmail sync is on

- Manage labels, Inbox and any other important labels are set correctly?

- Days of mail to sync are set to ~30 days?

I think those are probably an exhaustive list of on-phone options that would preclude syncing.
[HTC Droid DNA] brocja01:
Yup, went through all those settings. Multiple times. :(
[HTC Droid DNA] Trooper Thorn:
Did you hit the setting within the GMail app specifically?

I recently went through this because of the Snapdragon Battery Guru app. It shut off my GMail sync and I had a hell of a time finding out how to put it back on.

I had to open the Gmail app itself and go to:

Settings > [your email account] > Notifications (check box)

Settings > [your email account] > Gmail sync is ON

If that's not it, then I don't know what else could be the issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] v-b-n:
I am thinking that during initial setup you said NO to background syncing so just check this ..

Settings -> Accounts .. -> Auto Sync (SHould be ON)
[HTC Droid DNA] andyroidna:
definitely check that! i went a day without emails, and any notification. i thought it was weird, but didn't really pay much mind to it. then i noticed that i'd only get my whatsapp messages when i actually opened the app, i checked for autosync. somehow, it was off. it was working fine all along, and i have no idea how it got turned off. everything has been fine since, though, so definitely double check that

OK, install goomanager OK, download aokp_d2att_jb-mr1_build-4.zip, and gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip, used TWRP to install and am now stuck in AOKP with first message after booting "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped". then after that "unfortunately setup wizard has stopped".

and I can't get into recovery. I can only get into download mode. and I can use ODIN, By the way when connect to my desktop I have access to both internal and ext cards.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aybarrap1:
Go into recovery by holding VOL UP : HOME : PWR BUTTON simultaneously. Your phone should boot up into recovery mode (whichever one you have installed). WIPE system, data, cache, and dalvik cache (this very highly recommended). Install the ROM and GAPPS mentioned in the respective order mentioned. Reboot and you should be good to go.

Worst case, should nothing work and you can get into download mode and Odin. But I don't see this being necessary.

I tried that it will not go into recovery. So I can use odin in download mode but what should I install? I can't find these in tar format?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mymusicathome:
Getting into recovery mode can be a pain. Removing the battery and using the above directions will solve the issue.

Tips for flashing any Rom:

1- read the Rom thread and download required files.

2 - boot into recovery

3 - do a nandroid backup

4 - format system

5 - factory data reset

6 - format dalvik cache

7 - format cache

8 - flash Rom

9 - reboot and let sit 10 minutes

If running a non touchwiz Rom reboot back into recovery and flash gapps include in Rom thread. Wipe dalvik cache and cache and let sit 10 minutes after boot.

Some users do steps 4-7 three times to ensure proper wipe.

Following these steps with any Rom will ensue a proper install.
