http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1631861

by the way for flashing the recovery you need fastboot command not adb
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
seems derp of emmc partition (nand is corrupted)

try this and let me know

first copy the desired recovery.img to your adb/fastboot folder

and then type this command

fastboot boot recovery.img

if booted ..flash the desired rom from the recovery

(smartflash doesnt work here..so dont turn it on)

then go back to bootloader

and flash the boot.img of the rom sepeartely

fastboot flash boot boot.img

then reboot and see

fastboot reboot
[HTC Sensation] missime:
when flashing any recovery it shows this

C:\android> fastboot flash recovery ext.img

sending 'recovery' (6116 KB)... OKAY [ 1.488s]

writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 6.677s]

doesnt shows finished .

after that fastboot boot recovery.img only restarts on htc logo thats all . u said nand is corrupt is it possible to fix ?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Let's try some ruu then ..as your cid is of India and there is no ICS Indian Ruu ..let's change the cid to Europe onre and try that Ruu

first this command

fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 (two underscores )

Then

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Then check whether cid changed or not

Using this command

fastboot getvar cid

If cid changed then lucky and we can try Ruu

If it didn't changed then out of luck

its gives me error 170 bro . what to do ? should be bootloader be relocked ? when flashing RUU .
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Yes it should be relocked ..sorry I didn't mentioned that

Also make sure fastboot is detecting your phone before trying ruu
[HTC Sensation] missime:
i relocked bootloader . copied the rom.zip and renamed it as PG58IMG.ZIP . loaded through memory card and went well . after that again rebooting on htc logo. tried unlocking bootloader and flashing recovery same doesnt goes to recovery . on restarts or stands on bootloader mode ( volume down+ power ) . is this a hardware problem ? i have attached pic also of all the flashing going well .
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
Yep pretty much hardware problem ..mostly nand got burned

[HTC Sensation] missime:
but phone doesnt get to any recovery bro . only restarts , and on hboot mode it doesnt connect to pc only when i change to fastboot mode it connects . i think thats why no RUU worked . better i give back the phone to customer . thanks for all bro

phone can be connected only in fastboot mode(in the hboot screen must say fastboot usb)

from fastboot mode run the ruu.exe

Hey guys

I tried seeing if this issue was already posted but could not find anything conclusive.

I recently set up my phone on my work's Exchange system, this forced my phone (and SD card to encrypt). Last week Google Playstore crashed and repeatedly continued to load and crash every few minutes. I then proceeded to remove the Exchange account and decrypt the phone before doing the factory reset... needless to say, I forgot that the SD card had to be decrypted separately. My phone is once again working and all the files appear on the SD card but I am getting the following: Images - "unable to load photo", Contacts import (vcf file) - "failed to import vCard".... etc. How do I get my files back??

[General Questions and Answers] vbcoder77:
Hi,

Unfortunately I think I am going to give you some bad news. When you decrypted your phone, the key used for the encryption/decryption of the files got removed, so I don't think you'll ever manage to decrypt those files. Did you have any CWM/nandroid backup of the phone when it was still encrypted? I believe only that may save you.

I saw this a while ago, and tonight I ran into this:

http://pigeond.net/photos/xda-linux/

I run Debian GNU/Linux on my desktop at home, and I'm not a big fan of the SynCE project since I'm a GNOME user and a vast majority of the SynCE tools are built for KDE. So, I would love nothing more than to be able to run Linux on my XDA.

Has any progress been made with this? It looks like someone got linux running on the XDA, but even if we got X working, what kind of task would it be to develop a phone app? What kind of support is needed before this can happen?

Does anyone know anything about the progress? =]

It seems, that this project is located on sourceforge

Here is the Link ...

Hi,

As you may have seen from other posts too, the Linux porting effort has been severely stalled more than once. Currently pigeon posted some progress here on the board which is about similar to what the xanadux project was in. Unfortunately no one currently has time to work further on this. I think pigeon probably will be making the most progress, and possibly we will integrate it all into one place some day. Seeing the current number of contributors and amount of time available I wouldn't hold my breath though ...

One more thing, have this ROM contains sboot.img file? (you may see it by extracting tar) and have you flashed bootloader separately?

So I made to decision it may be hardware glitch but wanted to give my phone one more try with newer firmware.

Yes, TAR file has sboot.bin file and my previous firmware - Stock_Root_Odex_N7100XXALJ1_N7100OXEALI8_N7100XXALIH_SER doesn't.

I flashed 4.1.2 with Mobile ODIN, all partitions at the same time.

Yeah its very common, some device still able to reboot to download mode inspite of having sds, though any attempt to flash anything will end with getting pit mapping error.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahtsiz_bedevi:
That's too bad then :(

Because according to his post, you see, his device's status mode is custom (modified). This will likely void his warranty.

I always thought that when the internal MMC dies, every recorded thing becomes inaccessible including flash counter, system status etc.

How is he going to make his device 'stock' now ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
I have not seen even single sds case having system status 'official', whrnever there is download mode available.

If binary flash counter is 0,then there should not be issue, and also I have never read any report, when they have rejected warranty just for custom status with binary counter 0.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colibri2:
dr.ketan,

Is there any evidence 4.1.2 is safe?

In other words we consider kernel is safe if MMC_CAP_ERASE flag is disabled.

On stock firmwares we can't verify this as Samsung does not show sources, I found only approach to this - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1807995 but there is no guarantee as it checks compiled binary and it varies on different devices/firmwares.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colibri2:
Hello nicholes,

I'm not SDS expert but reading this forum I figured out eMMC corruption affects (only?) /system, /data and probably /cache partitions.

When I was on 4.1.1 phone started randomly reboots, after each reboot I lost something like SMS, system settings, apps started to FC. So it looks like file system corruption. Flashing to 4.1.2 finished phone off. But yep no evidence 4.1.2 is safe.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Thread you have mentiined is for information think s2 and note1

On those device such patching was done bcoz those device was getting brick by wiping data. Sds is different and it can happen spontaneous without wiping or having any known trigger.

4.1 2 safety no one can claim fully as you know samsung never speaks on such issues, but some elite developers have found some patching on new kernel released in 2013

Recovery also using kernel, so basically patching is in kernel and recovery, firmware whatever you are using is not concerned but which kernel and recovery you are having is solely concerned.

Truly speaking whatever cases I have seen bricked on 4.1.2 are not clear

One have older recovery

Another have old kernel, one don't knew which refovery he had.

And in your case, damage likely happened earlier, bcoz symptoms already there before you flashed 4.1.2

So atleast we should have clear cased of sds on 4.1.2 before we can say there is no patching(or patching is not proper), as well such case happen to experienced user then it would be better to understand. As newbie many times not having proper acknowledge about what they are flashing and just knowing they have 4.1.2. This causing confusion.

---------- Post added at 02:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------

Really this will not much useful, there is no doubt about sds happens with insane chip, if you want to make survey try finding pure case of sds happened on device having stock 4.1.2 (2013 released, because some Dec 12 released 4.1.2 doesn't have sds patched)

As above said case should be from some experienced user who can confirm exact rom as well kernel and recovery if he /she have replaced.

I am also watching for same but till now I have no evidence of such.
