[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twneville:
I turned over this morning in bed to find my S3 had failed an uncalled encryption process (one benefit of all this is that I had an excellent night's sleep as my alarm did not go off (that said I got to work 2 hours late)).

The error message:

"Encryption failed

Unable to complete encryption due to interruption. Perform factory data reset before use. After resetting, try encrypting device again."

If I hit 'reset device' it either gets stuck on boot screens or, if I then take the battery out and restart, it eventually shows this error message again. Once but only once I got a linux looking menu offering options to reboot, reset the phone, attempt recovery etc. I chose to reboot as I thought this might get out of this data encryption failing lock. Unfortunatley after that it went back to booting to this error screen.

Note: I have never tried to root this phone and have not done any non-standard actions to it at any point, it runs the stock Samsung system, updated to Jelly Bean a little while ago.

Breaking my rule of avoiding rooting/roms (for warranty / insurance's sake (I used to root my old android phones, just not this Samsung S3)) I followed an article on CNET called "How to recover a bricked Samsung Galaxy S3" (can't link to it in this post) to try and restore the standard Samsung Rom, it did not work. I also tried rooting it. Both times I got this error as the process failed mid way:

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/004> Initialzation..

<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/004> recovery.img

<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!

<ID:0/004> cache.img

<ID:0/004> FAIL!

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I have since tried:

- different versions of Odin (3.07, 1.87, 1.85),

- standard samsung one: KIES_HOME_I9300XXEMC2_I9300OXAEMC2_1042335_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5

- two root files: CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar.md5 and CF-Root-SGS3-v6.3.tar

All fail, either not working at all or getting the above messages.

So

1) What would have caused the encryption process to start and then fail

2) Can I fix this? Why is the rooting or restoring standard samsung rom failing?

3) If not, willl Vodafone/ Samsung fix this under warranty (bearing in mind I did not root this phone originally, nor has it been rooted (trying to root it fails!) (I also have insurance but figure they won't cover this.

Thank you!

Hey

Can you access recovery??

Sent from my Awesome GT-I9300..!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twneville:
Aha, so that is the screen I saw this morning once when it rebooted randomly.

I've just tried it multiple times (watched various youtube videos of how too) - the samsung logo comes up, then screen goes black, then samsung logo again - in loop. That's if I hold buttons down for a while, constantly or release after a few seconds.

Thanks

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tchindalia:
Hey

So if you can access recovery mode (vol up+home+power) till it boots and then release all the buttons when it starts booting..

Use vol keys to move selection up and down..and use power button to select..

Move to "wipe data/factory reset" and use power button to select..

After it completes chose reboot system now..

This should probably solve your issue..

Sent from my Awesome GT-I9300..!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twneville:
Sorry, I wasn't clear. I cannot access the recovery mode (I did once when the issue first started occuring, this appeared to have been pot luck, now I cannot access it). If I do it now it just cycles between showing the boot logo and a black screen, whether I hold the buttons or press them for a short amount of time (I know I'm doing it right).

Is there a way of remotely triggering it or similar?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tchindalia:
Hey

Tell me one more thing..was USB debugging on before your phone screwed up..??

Sent from my Awesome GT-I9300..!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twneville:
Pass. Probably not - I can't remember ever doing it on my S3 (have done it on previous androids).

I've only every connected via USB for accessing the SD.

This is annoying as it's obviously not totally bricked - when the Enryption failure messages come up I can adjust volume (i.e. it shows the volume slider etc), a sound happens when I click the 'reset' button. This said I can't launch recovery mode.

Thank you for all your help!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twneville:
P.S. I have tried from 2 other PCs now and another KIES stock Samsung Rom - all failed too.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tchindalia:
Hey

That probably means that USB Debugging is off on your phone..else Odin3 would have picked it up..

I guess only a pro or samsung can help you now..

I just wanted to chime-in and say that my SGS3 did exactly the same thing last night. I woke up this morning (amazingly, before my alarm would have gone off), to find it sitting at the same error message after attempting to encrypt itself. Since then, after doing the reset, the phone has been unstable, with frequent lockups. No idea what's happened.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] octahedron:
The very first time I used my phone when the screen was locked I was able to get the music controls to come up with above the pattern. Now I can only get it to work by sliding down the notification panel which is an extra step that can be a little annoying when working out or driving. I searched and couldn't find any solutions and was wondering if anyone knew. I normally use google music, but I don't mind the samsung player.

And is the screen timeout function buggy? I have mine set to ten minutes and sometimes it'll stay on and sometimes it'll timeout after a couple minutes which is also a nuisance since I generally like to keep my screen on when I'm driving or exercising so I can stay focused.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
what ROM are you running or are you stock rooted/unrooted?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] octahedron:
Stock.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
the music control feature on the lock screen was not included in the 4.1.1 release. you probably saw it before you updated and are not seeing it now. how recently did you update? moving to 4.1.1 is probably also related to your screen timeout issue.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robjbw:
Don't have a live wallpaper for lock screen. Controls will shows when static wallpaper is set for lock. Try Google play if stock music player does not show.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] people211:
For the screen time out thing, do you have a secured lock time option under lock screen in your settings?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] martiniturbide:
Hi.

We are discussing on the Lenovo Forum about bricked Thinkpad Tablets and for the moment we got some attentions from Lenovo moderators and technical people.

We need help on reporting everything we can found about this problem on the Lenovo forum:

http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPa...1-Errors-on-Recovery-Menu/td-p/1055573/page/2

If you have a Thinkpad Tablet that can not be restored because :

1) The "factory reset" is not working (keeps looping on the Lenovo Animation)

or

2) The "Android system recovery <3e>" is not working. You can not access it (freeze on Booting Recovery Kernel Image") or if you can access it is showing errors and can not be used.

Please visit the forum and post your problem. Also send to the Lenovo user NINE your problem description.

I can not guarantee that Lenovo will solve our problems, but we have to take the opportunity to show them the problems we are having.

[Off-topic] cruisin-thru:
Has anybody had problems with WM2003 upgrade on Ipaq 3870.

1: If bluetooth is switched on already and soft reset takes place, it reboots with "cant initialise bluetooth error", it will then take 2 or 3 attempts on clicking on bluetooth on before it will switch on, if you do the same on wm2002 it is switched on when reboot takes place with no problem.

2: Under settings/assets it shows screen as not colour, also it shoes bluetooth present but gives no type or revision number, this problem remains even after downgrade.

3: When trying to downgrade to WM2002 the program responds by saying the flash file isnt suitable, it cannot identify it as 3800 series as that part is left blank.

Any ideas appreciated.

Thanks for your time.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slyviper1700:
You can't but if you unlock the bootloader you can flash doomkernel which allows you to overclock at almost 2 GHz. Keep in mind if you unlock the bootloder you lose mobile bravia engine and the other Sony apps like walkman. Once you unlock the bootloder there is no going back so think about it carefully before unlocking the bootloader.

Press thanks if I helped
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thej96fa:

The problem is that I can't unlock the bootloader, but I use a lot my XZ to see films... I may do the overclocking on december and maybe that in that date will be ready the overclocking for locked bootloaders...

To see the film I want the BE2 the overclock is to run the advanced games because the next app generation are going to be desing for Exinos 5, Snapdragon 600 and tegra 4i, so with overclocking the XZ is like a S4 with Snapdragon 600 ready for the next apps.

Hello,

This might sound like a really dumb question but is it safe to delete the /sdcard forlder to "format" it ? because it is not cleaned by the factory reset. By the way is there any other way to "format" nexus 4's sd card ?

Are there any other folders that are not deleted at factory reset ?

Thanks !

I'd imagine the folder would re-appear or not allow you to delete but don't try. Just open cmd and use "rm -rf /mnt/sdcard/*"

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:
Stickmount wont show you your files on the memory stick.

The mount service is busy because Stickmount has already mounted your memory stick !!

Download:

FX Explorer

or

ES Explorer

You should see your USB stick and be able to browse them.

I'll say again STICKMOUNT WILL NOT SHOW YOUR FILES.

It simply allows the stick to be mounted to your Nexus.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbobvfr400:
Also which rom are you using, a fair few of them have native mounting (smoothrom and paranoid android both do, probably others as well) I found stick mount seems to confuse matters if Android is also trying to mount the stick. Removing stick mount and using the native solved the issues for me.

The native mounting will show in the storage section of settings.

Just been wondering, cause I've tried it before but with no success, is it possible to create a virtual private network between your home computer/wlan to your android phone?

The main reason I would be interested in doing this is to possibly access my media collection on my home laptop via the HTC media player's ability to stream from a shared computer on the same wireless network, or to use splashtop2 vnc to access my actual computer from a remote location.

Has anyone tried this? With something like Hamachi ?

OpenVPN Windows 7 Android Config

I've been coding for eight hours today, so I'll try to explain as much as possible tonight and will continue tomorrow if need be...

1. So obviously you need a static IP, if you don't have one yet set one up with no-ip or change-ip or whatever you prefer

2. Download and install this straight to C:\ directory.... trust me it is just easier this way:http://swupdate.openvpn.org/community/releases/openvpn-2.2.2-install.exe <--- This is an older version but I've found it to be most stable

3.Create a simple text file in the config folder of the OpenVPN server eg. C:\OpenVPN\config

and paste this into it:

## server.ovpn ##

port 1194 # This is the standard openVPN port, you may change it just make sure open it up in you firewall and forward the port

proto udp

dev tun

ca ca.crt

cert server.crt

key server.key # This file should be kept secret

dh dh1024.pem

server 10.20.1.0 255.255.255.0 #If you use this IP, your host machine will take the virtual IP of 10.20.1.1

ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt

push "dhcp-option DNS 10.20.0.1" #change these to match your setup

push "dhcp-option WINS 10.20.0.1" #this too

keepalive 10 120

comp-lzo

max-clients 3 # The maximum number of concurrently connected clients we want to allow.

persist-key

persist-tun

status openvpn-status.log

verb 3

4.save that text file with an .opvn extension
