[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] champ1919:
There are a couple of ways. I use Odin which requires a different set than heimdall. With odin, Samsung's program kies or mini kies will load them up for you.

Heimdall (a one click program that bhuven & lumin30 have put together) will load up another set.

These two sets of drivers are known to clash.

Not sure of the direction that your going with the phone, but, if it's just to connect, Samsung mini kies would be the "manufacturer's recommended" route.

I was just trying to root with super one click, have had luck with it in the past. Will try installing kies and its drivers and using Odin tonight

[LG Optimus G (International)] Lost_prophet:
First of all sorry for starting this thread. But the amount of information is incredible, so I thought it'll be better to ask from people who already know the stuff.

So here goes:

1 - I would like to install a nexus 4 rom (stock custom, what not). Does it mean I have to replace the bootloader? Because I read like half of the thread (where the conversion is discussed) and there were post saying that it's not a requirement for canadian phones.

2 - If I have to to replace the boot loader will the external sd slot be working? (okay, found out there's no slot)
[LG Optimus G (International)] dbgeek:
It sounds like you don't have a lot of experience flashing ROMs. My advice to you is to only flash ROMs that are for your specific device. If it requires a "hack" using "LGNPST" to "convert" it to an N4, then you need to stay away from it (i.e., if any of those words show up in the thread: DON'T DO IT). If you really wanted an N4, why didn't you just buy an N4?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Shelnutt2:
So not flash n4 roms. High chance of brick because their parition layout is different. If some one used absolute paths instead of "by-name", then flash a nexus 4 boot.img will ovrerid your rpm parition and it's a instant brick on reboot.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Lost_prophet:
True, I own only two devices, both from Samsung (so flashing them is extremely easy).

Sd slot part was really confusing because LG has 5 models.

I am in Europe and N4s are extremely expensive here (450 euro for 8gb). So this phone was a nature choice.

Well anyways there is no way to convert and still have 32gb, so I'll stick with CM or another custom.

Thanks for your reply.

Seems to be a lot of confusion whether the octa-core version will have LTE so if anyone could advise that would be much appreciated and for reference the qualcomm S600 definitely has LTE.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kikisp:
i have read that octa dont have lte in usa because qualcomm has patents on lte chips in there..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblue95z:
If that were the case they should still be able to licence under FRAND, since it's a standards essential patent, right? If not, that's quite a monopoly on the US LTE market. Plus, what would that mean for Tegra4 devices? At any rate, I'm so sick of hearing about patents in the consumer electronics (specifially smartphones) sector. It's out of hand and needs dealth with properly.

US ones have quad core snapdragons probably just for supply issues, like last year (the Note 2 is exynos, quadcore (same processor as the S3) and had LTE).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daleski75:
I heard rumours that the octa-core international one bound for the UK would be 3G only and only the quad core S600 would have LTE enabled which seemed very odd to me.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daleski75:
Same as the LTE bands in the UK so logically speaking if Samsung used the same chip in the new octa-core it stands to reason everywhere in europe and/or asia would be able to buy the octa-core variant and get LTE.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hellscythe:
However we have to remember that the LTE Exynos version will be released slightly after the regular one.

if i recall correctly that was the case with the GS3 and Gnote2 :S
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soraxd:
from my understanding, US will get quadcore with LTE. that's pretty solid at this point, so should be safe to assume.

international will have the octa, that's also pretty solid. if it has LTE is what I'm not sure of..

I'm an AT&T user in the US. I've always used international phones just fine, since the 3G was compatible. i really wanna know if i get the international, will i have to give up LTE again like i did with the s3? don't know if there's a definite answer at this point.. anyone know?

Samsung's octo-core silicon doesn't have the 4G baseband modem integrated, meaning it will potentially be less power efficient than Qualcomm's SoC at our side of the pond.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jankanolv:
Well, first of all, I should start by greeting the community, as this is my first post. So, yeah, hey everybody, been reading the forum for quite a while now, and it's been of a great help :)

Now, to the problem - this morning I noticed that my sgs2 had turned itself off. I didn't suspect the phone to be bricked or something as this happens from time to time when using custom roms. I tried turning it back on, it booted up, showed my kernels logo (DorimanX, not sure for the version though), so I put my phone in my pocket. After half an hour or so, I wanted to make a call, but I noticed that my sgs2 still hadn't booted up. So I tried restarting my phone using the power button, but instead of restarting it just turned off and I hadn't been able to turn it on since - it's bricked

I've heard of phones getting bricked while flashing a new rom or kernel, but never had I thought it could happen on simply booting up...

I did some research on bricked SGS2 and here's what I have done so far:

I've tried booting up in recovery/download modes, but that doesnt work.

I've tried soft/hard resetting my phone - still no luck.

I've also tried making an USB Jig, didn't work though. I'm not quite sure if my self-made jig works in the first place, as I did mess up the micro usb connector pretty bad while soldering resistors to pins. I'll try that one again with a different jack later and will keep you updated on weather it worked or not.

So, my question is, if my second try at making a USB Jig fails, is JTagging my only chance on reviving the phone? I guess that a MOBO change would probably help.

Another question is, if JTagging is my only chance, wouldn't it be easyer to just replace the bricked NAND chip? Then again, even though I have all kinds of soldering equipment accessible and also have the skills to do it, I have no idea where it's located on the mobo... Some info on that would also be much appreciated.

I havent flashed a new rom for quite a while now, last time I did it was when the latest version of Resurrection Remix was released.

My CPU wasn't overclocked - it was underclocked to 1GHz.

I was using DorimanX kernel.

Thanks in advance ;)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pasanjay:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] birdr:
Very similar happened to me a couple of days ago. Sgs2 crashed and wouldn't boot. I was also running dorimanx kernel, under clocked at 1ghz.

Originally I managed to get to download mode (not recovery mode). Kernels wouldn't flash via odin. I also tried using samsung kies to flash stock without success.

I tried the solution for nand bricked phones in this forum, however, this appears to have hard bricked the phone, since it failed to flash and now the phone does nothing (other than get hot when it is plugged in.) Nothing shows on screen. The PC does not recognise the device.

None of the threads I've read seem to offer a solution to this - any ideas? I guess I need to try a service centre, but thought I'd mention since I had same configuration as jankanolv, which of course may just be a coincidence...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jankanolv:
Sounds familliar, lol. Anyways, did you use USB Jig to get to download mode? Or you just managed to boot it up on it's own?

I am really confused right now, because I'm pretty sure this can't be a hard brick as nothing has went wrong while flashing something on the device - it just bricked itself...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jankanolv:
Hmm... Looks like a lot of people are getting this "brick" lately.

Maybe we all used some kind of app that bricked the phone on bootup?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jankanolv:
Well, I tried to make another Jig, didn't work... This time though, I screwed my resitors up...

Another thing - is it really relevant to have exactly 301kOhm resistance between pins 4 and 5? As far as I know, it just kind of short circuits some pins on MOBO, which tells the phone to boot up in download mode. But I might be wrong...

Btw, sorry for the double post.

I went to Samsung to get them to fix based on the factory reset while on stock 4.04 premise, but they were having none of it, and wanted to charge me to investigate the problem. Once out of warranty period, it seems it doesn't matter if their software can brick your phone!

I found a local phone fixing service in Hong Kong which investigated, diagnosed as a motherboard failure (which I suspect my problem genuinely was given how firmware flashes were failing), and replaced + fitted for 700hkd, (approx 90usd). The guy did it in front of me within 10 mins. "Andy Telecom" in Mongkok, on +852 9237 9237 in case someone else has the same issue locally.

Well, I finally managed to make a working USB Jig, tried it on Galaxy Ace, worked like a charm.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jankanolv:
Sorry for double-posting again on an old thread, just wanted to let you guys know - I took the phone to warranty service and they changed the mobo. I didn't have to pay anything and everything is working normally. Of course all data on sd card is now lost for good, lol.

So if you hard brick your device so badly it even won't respond to usb jig and you still have your warranty active, don't bother trying to revive your phone - just take it to warranty service :)

I guess they couldn't see the odin download count so they cant void my warranty, he he he ]:)
