but my phone went warm when i sintalled avast antivirus:( and batter ended quick! i uninstalled it and pluged it in charge im sure it was antivirus and nevr gonna happen again!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haloimplant:
No offense but news flash the energy in the battery is converted into heat when you use the phone.

I feel like many people complaining about heating or overheating have units that are working correctly. It's a quad core with a big battery it's gonna make some heat when you put it to work.

Overheating specifically means heating to point where it no longer functions, not the point where you simply believe it is too hot (assuming it's not burning you) or even worse you think some temp readout is too high.

Tl;dr if your phone isn't shutting down or burning you it doesn't have a heating problem. If it's warm at idle your battery is draining you have a software idle drain problem not a heating problem.

Charging also generates heat. My phone will get pretty warm gaming but only really gets heated up on the back when charging. It's all fine. My S1 got toasty and never failed, one time I left it in a hot car it was so hot I could barely touch it and it was still working fine. Just chill. ;)

I apologize if this question has already been answered but i did search the forum and couldn't find anything...

i've flashed the official LG P970 ICS V30B and thus unrooted my phone. how can i root it again (except using unlock root - i'm looking for a free method)

thank you!
[LG Optimus Black] diazao:
UnlockRoot is free, as I'm still using it whenever I need to flash stock ICS... :S
[LG Optimus Black] zenzaman:
perhaps it was free? unlockroot[.]org

i did install it and keeps asking me for a serial number...
[LG Optimus Black] zenzaman:
after some more searching i found a 4shared archive with unlockroot v2.3 that worked and didn't ask for any serial. :good:

although, yet i have a confirmed root access, i can't seem to edit the phone's ringtones (tried to copy a couple of ringtones in its default device folder and keep getting an error)...

Instructions

extract I337UCUAMDB_I337ATTAMDB_ATT.zip in your downloads folder

Open Odin

Click PDA

Navigate to where you extracted the firmware and select it

Hold Volume Down + Home + Power until your device enters Download(Odin) Mode, then press volume up.

Connect the device to the computer and hit Start in Odin.

Stand back from the device and the computer until its complete.

Flashing Tips

Always use a GOOD USB cable, preferably stock.

Always use a good USB port in the back of the computer.

Always set the device in a good position where it will not become disconnected or disturbed.

Above all, Always use Heimdall over Odin when it becomes available. It's not available yet.

How to make a firmware like this

I was actually uploading a copy from my own computer obtained via exploit from bfielding's device, and I decided to try kies. The official package is a much better idea. Samsung Kies requires that you put in your model and serial, then it downloads the firmware in an encrypted package, extracts it, flashes it and deletes it. There's a short window where you can get in and grab the firmware.

Kies downloads to a temporary file called (in my case) C:\Users\Adam\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp####.tmp (where # is an integer less than 10). When the firmware is extracted, it goes into a new folder called C:\Users\Adam\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp####\. Yank that and put it on hotfile :).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] appdroid:
Nice work as always sir!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] creepyncrawly:
Just checked. The download for this is available on sammobile.com/firmware. It wasn't there a couple of hours ago, well sometime this afternoon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] AdamOutler:
There was alot going on and I had multiple windows up. I created one in Linux from bfielding's device, was uploading it to hotfile, uploading one from Kies, and was sent this link too somewhere in the mix. I guess I lost my upload link. Oh well, looks like we're using the Sammobile version.

[MENTION=3682533]AdamOutler[/MENTION], based on your video on the other thread, the motherboard of the ATT and the TMo version of the S4 are the same, does it mean that if flash the TMo version of the ROM on the ATT it may unlock the bootloader or are those two distinctive matters ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] AdamOutler:
NO! the signatures are different. You'll brick your device, but I'm not sure to what extent.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] dc2rjun:
THANK YOU!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CarpeNoctem:
Thanks but let's take an stupid case scenario:

ATT device

TMo odin ROM

try to flash 2 onto 1

Fail or succeed

if succeeds -> bootloader unlocked ?

if fails -> can we flash back ATT odin rom now we have it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] jcase:
If it flashed, which it wont, then you would now uave bootloaders with the wrong signature and would need to jtag it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Relys:
You the man Adam!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] CarpeNoctem:
ok, so basically the signature is check before the flash of the rom. so if my understanding is correct the solutions would be to

disable the check of the signature

have the TMo rom with the ATT signature to flash the unlocked bootloader

change the bootloader with a non-signed version

Please correct me if I am wrong, I am new at this and I am trying to understand what Adam explains in the other thread but I am sometime very confused (and not knowledgeable enough)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Alex506:
Okay... I just got my SGH-I337. I flashed the wrong kernel by mistake.. It failed, but it messed everything up. I had TWRP, but have since attempted to flash back to stock with the package that you provided, as well as the stock kernel. Nothing has worked.

When I put my battery in, the phone vibrates and just stays on a black screen and vibrates every 3 seconds. There are no logos or lettering in any way. I have attempted to enter into recovery, but its not possible. I can, however, enter into the odin download mode perfectly fine and the screen comes on as it should, and flashes without any errors. But, as soon as the device reboots, it goes into the endless set of vibrations every 3 seconds.

I really don't know what else to do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MattMJB0188:
This is what I want to know.

Only thing I could find was how to remove the custom status with no recovery but with root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sloanster:
Anyone here can help Alex out would be appreciated...

I had a similar problem a few days back and was a bear to fix... BUT I was able to get into stock recovery & fix my problem...

This problem is a result of what odin does not flash I think!!!

because he has flashed back to stock and that did not clear up his problem...

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] blyndfyre:
If I want to flash back to Stock on a carrier other than AT&T (Telus Canadian to be exact), can I still follow this method but use my carriers firmware found on sammobile?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sloanster:
I dont see why not....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] blyndfyre:
Sorry new to this. Wanted to make sure I was getting my stock TELUS carrier firmware. Assuming flashing this brings you back to STOCK everything, ROM, Recovery and Kernel?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] trparky:
Alex506, so can you even get into Odin Download Mode? If so, you have no other choice but bite the bullet and do a full Odin reload.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sloanster:
What do you mean a full odin reload???

I never seen a 1/2 full back to stock...

I think hes tried both UCUAMDL & UCUAMDB
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] trparky:
You're funny.

I noticed that when I did an Odin reload on my phone, I had to do a Factory Reset first in Recovery to get it completely back to stock. An Odin reload doesn't erase the user data, only the OS, boot, and recovery partitions. A Factory Reset is required to wipe out the user data before you can get back to full stock status.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sloanster:
Yeah I try... but seriously once he went down the path now he cant get back to do a factory reset.

is it possible to flash something in odin to clear this problem up
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] trparky:
I'm really not sure, Odin should have overwritten the kernel/boot partition and should have restored device functionality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sloanster:
Yeah bu as of this morning all hes gettin was black screen & vibrating pulses...

I had a similar time but I was able to get in recovery and flash portions of a twrp backup to clear data...

he may have fallen off the grid by now...

I cant believe that if your able to enter odin mode... why would you not be able to enter recovery mode?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] trparky:
There is a possibility that he doesn't know how to get into recovery mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] sloanster:
He says different cause I splained the key combo has a short window

Incase he logs on here ya go.

1. hold volume up & home together

2. Now hold power for 4 sec then release power only...

3. Continue holding volume up & home aprox 2 mo sec

4. Release (you should be in recovery)

thanks adam

thanks for this adam. after several rom flashes, my gs4 went all bricky and this saved the day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] MattMJB0188:
I'd still like to know after one does this, how they remove the custom unlock icon? I have searched but am confused as you need root to remove it and this method removes all root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] Alex506:
I do know how to access recovery. I had to access it several times before the incident occurred. However, I have since returned the phone to AT&T and got a replacement and am running everything stock, not rooted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] david.degraw54:
Alright so I definitely need some expert help here.

So I stupidly bricked my S4 :( bad too, won't boot up in the slightest bit, can't even get into Odin Download Mode. I tried this method: http://forum.legija.net/showthread....g-galaxy-S4-(i9505-and-similar)-via-USB-Cable and it detects a device but I don't believe it is my phone because it shows up even when I unplug the phone. It requires a port number but the device is bricked so it wont connect which is a problem. Anyone got any ideas at all? I wanna try EVERYTHING I can to get this amazing phone back up and running before I actually declare it "dead" and buy another phone.

Using factory cable, went back to stock rooted, and have drivers installed. I get the computer to recognize the phone, but it will not show up in ODIN. I have no idea what is keeping it from recognizing. Any ideas?

Make sure your in download mode
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] thacounty:
I was. I rebooted the PC and the phone at least 5 times each only to find out that the reason it wasn't working is that somehow one of the files got extracted from ODIN into a different folder. Rookie mistake. As soon as I moved this file it recognized it. I don't even think that I had to unplug the phone, but I don't remember. Again, rookie mistake.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] seanpr123:
Ok, having some (what seem to be) serious problems here.

Few posts about it:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42586424#post42586424

Things got working again last night without me doing much after a few wipes and stock restore. Wiped everything like usual and installed Sho from TWRP, then no boot.

I attempted an Odin, everything in Odin said Pass (see attached) but phone just sits at boot screen.

What the heck can I do now? Possible I had some sort of faulty device issue?

No body else seems to be having these issues and I'm not new to the Galaxy scene and flashing...

Edit* Stock recovery replaced TWRP so that's good, seeing this error message:

Having trouble with /data apparently, any thoughts how to proceed? I know I never touched the partitions during this process...

edit** Did a factory data reset from 3e and wiped cache, cache automatically restarted phone and now booted stock (yay!).

Going to try another Casual install, wipe and Sho install. Wish me luck.

Anything I should know or look out for?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] orlandoxpolice:
Sean flash sho then loki doki.

So you are failing when you are trying to wipe data? Can you adb into your device?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] seanpr123:
Hmm, what do you mean Sho THEN loki (doki?)?

I'm back up and running with Sho1.3, fresh install but things are CRAWLING.

This time I did not format system as instructions didn't call for it, just the factory reset from TWRP.

Any idea what's going on? Feel like I can't catch a break here.

I'll move this discussion to Sho's thread now as I seem to be mostly up and running.

Edit* Just to update, issue lies in Sho with built into Google Keyboard.

Sorry for all my issues, hopefully didn't spam it up too much lol.

Things are finally looking good on my end woot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] orlandoxpolice:
also you should be using AMDL
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] captivated1971:
same issue sean ,

id flashed a couple differernt roms with no problems also then they started gettin wonky last rom i tried to flash was clean and simple, i had no wifi signal so i tried to flash jeeboos kernel and it happened ,so i odined back to stock and had same issues glad u had them first and i read ur post lol . but it all worked out fine. think ill try cwm recovery this time not twrp.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] swamyg1:
I tried restoring the factory ROM through ODIN, everything in ODIN told me things were going smooth. Now when my phone tries to boot up it just vibrates every few seconds repeatedly with nothing displaying on the screen. I thought my phone was supposed to boot right up after installation!! Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] scott14719:
It seems to depend on what you did to the phone that made you need to ODIN back to stock. There appears to be a growing group of people that flashed the wrong Kernel / ROM combo for the phone and now can't use ODIN to restore to stock. I'm not sure if this is your situation or not. If it is, I don't think there is a solution yet. You can keep trying ODIN or you keep trying to get into recovery. Maybe someone knows how to use ADB to push recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] swamyg1:
I am one of those people. I was trying to install Wanamlite through TWRP, but I did a couple things wrong. I have flashed custom ROMS before, but I think I was just careless this time.

The things I did wrong are:

I installed the wrong kernel, I used this one KT747-TW-JB-4.1.2-ATT-05-31-2013.zip for the GS3.

I did not click "reboot" after install of the ROM and kernel, I held down the power button. Don't know what I was thinking!

I can't get into recovery, and I can't get the factory firmware to restore through ODIN apparently :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] seanpr123:
Hmm that's a bummer, so you can't even get to the stock 3e recovery?

I had problems booting after this stock Odin flash, but was able to get into stock recovery and wiped data & cache and that did the trick for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] swamyg1:
Hmmm I'm not sure what the stock 3e recovery is and how to get to it. I had TWRP installed on my phone before my ODIN factory install, does that mean TWRP is gone? If so, is there a different procedure to get into 3e recovery? Thanks for the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] seanpr123:
Reset battery (or just make sure phone is off), hold Volume UP & Home Button then press power. You should see it say booting recovery in top left then that's ideally the stock S4 recovery (3e).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] swamyg1:
I see, I tried this with no success. Phone just keeps booting with no sign of going into recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] reade0871:
Actually hold down the colume up, home, and power buttons simultaneously until you see the Samsung logo and in the top left of the screen should indicate that you are booting recovery

Can I flash this stock touchwiz rom via TWRP on my device or does it have to go through Odin?

Factory Restore

I just realized you dont even need any of this, I just successfully went from a custom rom on my galaxy s4 to stock samsung touchwiz just by doing an emergency firmware update via Kies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] scott14719:
Works great as long as Kies recognizes your phone. For many people, Kies will not work for emergency firmware because it doesn't recognize their phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] BrokenLegGuy:
I followed the instructions to the letter but I'm having an issue. My phone was rooted and I tried to use the goo app to install a compatible rom and when I did I just got the logo of the rom for about 45 minutes. After re-flashing with the same result I decided to go back to stock using this method and I'm in a situation where it shows the notification bar and nothing else. the phone is super, super sluggish. I've tried this a few times with no success.

Any ideas of where to go from here?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] BrokenLegGuy:
After getting some sleep I was able to work it out. Used kies to flash back to stock and then deleted user data in recovery and that was it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] captivated1971:
