I have a Samsung Galaxy Mini with CM7 installed and rz recovery installed. It was all working fine for half a year till my phone started to keep rebooting.

Problem with multiloader

Hi,

I'm writing here because I'm fed up with searching answers on other forums... I'm fighting with my phone for few days and I still can't solve my problem. And the problem is that Multiloader (5.65, 5.67) don't see my Wave II. I were changing software of my Wave for many times befor and I have never had problem like this. I tried to install various types of driver, I cleaned up my windows 7, I made plenty of Hard Resets on my phone and i tried to solve my problem by many ways described on other forums but I havent solved it yet... Maybe it's because of that I installed windows 7 on my computer? When i had windows xp then multiloader worked good. I think the main problem is that I can't install USB driver when my phone (Wave II) is in Download Mode. Anyway... I hope that You all would help me to solve this problem!

Hello guys!

I have a problem booting my Galaxy SII GT-I9100. After failing a update and receiving the error message e:failed to mount /sdcard(no such file or directory), i tried to soft reset, clear cache data, restore to factory settings and nothing worked. I tried some solutions found on this forum like using odin and use a boot_loader or .pit file but i always receive a fail, more than that, when i use odin v.4.43, the phone is not recognized.

When i try to boot my phone, it remains stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII boot screen. I really need to fix this phone because i do most of my work through it.

Note that i was using IceCream Sandwich at the time i started the "upgrade".

Question flashing recovery

Hallo ! I'm a newbie and having problems with flashing Cybermaus's recovery on my Lenovo A789. When I install the recovery on my computer it resuts in 4 files : Checksum.ini (1kb), MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt (1kb), README.txt (1kb) and recovery.img (4.844kb). Recovery is one file. At first it was opened als an Irfan View file. I deleted the .img extension for Irfan View but now it sees .img as a diskcopy. Later I changed the application to open .img to SP flash tool.

When I choose the MT6577 scatter file in SPP flashtool it gives the path to that. But only to that file, the path to the Preloader and all the rest is empty. In the manual of bgcngm you see all the path of every file. When I try to flash nothing happens. I must be doing something wrong, but what. Installing the drivers worked, thanks to post 25 from Cybermaus's Lenovo A789 thread. I think I miss the right way to unpack the recovery, all files in it must be viewable, not ?

The college's from Cybermaus's thread advised me to just "point" the SP flash tool to the .img file. Unfortunately that does not work, .img is not a file that SP flashtool loads. I have not been able to find something on this problem. Or it must be to "unpack" the .img file using Perl. Is that what is needed ? It sounds as a though one to learn. I think I'm missing somethong basic, and hopefully simple, here. Can anyone give me a hint how to make the path of all the files of a recovery viewable in SP flash tool ?

Thanks in advance ! Badu

[General Questions and Answers] KinoTheMystic:
okay so I think I'm having a really big issue here... After I hit all the checkboxes and click next and then Update, it wants to reboot to bootloader. When it reboots, it goes straight to loading up the rom, with the infinite boot animation. My starting point is in the bootloader, with fastboot USB on so it can be 100% connected to my computer. I also tried holding down the power button when it goes to reboot so it can go to bootloader, but the progress bar on the program still says "Waiting for bootloader". I have a feeling that doing the RUU process is only possible within a booted up rom..

How do I unlock the bootloader of Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Neo (SM-T111)

I have rooted my Tab using KINGROOT apk available on xda-developers. After reading on the Guide that the process of rooting may also install custom recovery I have once again read the thread of KINGROOT and it says that only desktop version of KINGROOT installs the recovery if required but since I have installed apk on my Tab for root it does not.

Now coming to my question. Does the process of installing custom recovery also unlocks the bootloader?

Is there any other way to unlock the bootloader if not can I revert back to stock recovery keeping the bootloader unlocked?

No, flashing recovery does not unlock bootloader. You'll have to unlock your bootloader before you flash it I believe.

He says he has TWRP in his post.

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 AM ----------

If you are using TWRP instead of NUTS then the incompatibility shouldn't be your issue. Have you tried manually patching busybox into your system? Starting with busybox uninstalled and its binaries removed, you can manually place busybox's binaries in your

/system/xbin folder then manually place the busybox apk in your /system/app folder(do not install the apk, just move and place the apk file in the folder) then restart your phone to see if it works. This doesn't work on all devices or all android versions but its worth trying.

I'm running a Verizon S3 on cm12.1 nightlies and have TWRP 2.8.7.0 installed. Firmware and modem up to date (as far as we can go.)

I'm creating a simple installer to flash a couple of files after a nightly install - platform.xml and bootanimation.zip, in their respective locations.

What might be best for me, might not be best for you. Not trying to flame or be sarcastic. It's like this, YOU know what you want, I don't. YOU know what you need, I don't. You are essentially asking, what is the best ROM when you ask a question like this.

Then you look for a ROM that has most, if not all of those features that YOU need. Understand?
