[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saru_verma:
Is it the same as trying to install OS again.

That techie help guy at service center tried it, but he told me that the phone was not allowing the download, neither the same version nor the lower.

...Not a good sign means??

:(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Then I guess it probably means u have a corrupted system memory (NAND) which doesn't allow installation of any firmware.

Is your phone under warranty?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saru_verma:
No, its not under warranty now.

Its 1.5 years old.

Is there any fix to it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
If the NAND is corrupted, you will have to take it to a service centre where they would replace the motherboard (it will be expensive).

Or maybe you can replace it yourself if you can get a used S2 (like with a broken screen).

I'm not very good with hardware stuff..perhaps [MENTION=4330322]MistahBungle[/MENTION] can shed a little light here. :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saru_verma:
motherboard...:(

I never knew that a app crash can lead to it...:(

I will check with the service center guys on this then.

Generally how costly can it be?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Cost will vary widely mostly depending on how much labour costs in your country (cost of parts will be a factor as well). Yep, having a service centre put a new MB in is relatively expensive. Putting a 2nd hand one in yourself or paying a local mobile shop who isn't an authorised repairer to put one in is cheaper, but the cost of sourcing one again can vary widely depending on how much someone wants for their busted/'donor' phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saru_verma:
Thanks!

Would check on that then!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Do let us know what u learn!

Good luck mate! :thumbup:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jan9000:
Same thing happened to me today.

I was logging in on a website when the internet app crashed and the phone restarted and stopped booting at the samsung logo.

It runs on factory 4.1.2 stock jb but I rooted the phone two months ago.

I tried to flash via three different versions of odin, trying every usb port, made sure all the kies processes were ended, a new stock firmware but every time it's stuck at the nand write function.

How can a stock app cause a soft brick this bad? And to multiple people? Mine is about the same age as OP, but here we have two years guarantee, but since I rooted the phone and can't do anything but go in to download mode, will it be under guarantee?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calthraun:
So here's the story. This morning I started out with a working 32GB GT-i9300 running a rooted variant of Samsung's android 4.2.2., and thought I'd have a go at overclocking it following this thread here. Look away now if you can't bear to read of the destruction of technology by ignorance and impatience.

The first road block I hit was needing siyah kernel if I wanted to try overclocking the graphics chip as well. Why not? I tried flashing Siyah via clockwork recovery and ended up with a status 7 error which I looked up to mean my OS was incompatible. (In hindsight I probably had the wrong file...) So I did a bit more research and found that Cyanogenmod 10.1 is also supported by Siyah. I've always thought it would be fun to try Cyanogen, so I grabbed the latest nightly and tried flashing it with mobile Odin. Mobile Odin started flashing then froze after something like 'clearing data'. I think I must have been using the wrong file here too... Anyway, I reset my phone, and it wouldn't boot, except into recovery or download mode. So in another flurry of impatient research I found a bunch of different sources that seemed to suggest re-partitioning with a .pit file was a sure fire fix. A link was provided, with no mention that pit files are specific for certain sizes. Next thing I know, I've re partitioned with a 64GB file on my 32GB phone, and recovery mode is no longer an option. I can still use download mode but Odin freezes typically on 'NAND Write Start!!'

Panic mode, activate.

Things I have tried so far to no avail:

Re-partitioning with a pit file for 32GB galaxy S3s - It finishes in Odin successfully, but no result.

Attempting to flash any ROM, specifically the original one, and the one I had before the screw up - 'NAND Write Start' freeze

Attempting to flash any kernel, specifically Siyah, Perseus and the stock kernel. - Same as above

Using multiple usb cables (4) - No result

Trying different USB ports, and different computers - Ditto

Different versions of Odin (1.3, 1.85 and 3.07) - Unsucessful

Throwing a tantrum - exhausting, but otherwise un-noteworthy

Things i haven't tried:

Jtag. - I don't know terribly much about this apart from what I found in a PDF. Would this be likely to work? Are there any trustworthy people that do this? Should I try it myself?

Returning to Samsung under hardware warranty - I don't think this would work, my flash counter is 2 - custom. Unless it's possible to triangle away in this state.

Giving up - I doubt this would help, but somehow it's looking more and more enticing... ;_;

So after wasting nearly a whole day trying to rescue it, and failing miserably. (Digging my own grave) I decided to post my specific case. As while I have found many descriptions of similar woes, nothing has worked.

Can you help? Please?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Its a damaged Nand from what you posted .

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calthraun:
If that's the case, is there anything I can do at all? Is it worth trying to Jtag it?

You cant do that, no way possible.

But due to android being highly customizeable, you can change the launcher and make it iOS look alike. Search the playstore for miui launcher
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mtakween:
if u want ur go to look similar to ios the this is POSSIBLE

BUT if u want ios devices to look similar to GO then this is impossible now way
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben Ling:
Impossible,if you want you can change your phonw to iPhone 4/4S,same size as Xperia go :cool:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] happy3777:
Hi u cant get exact ios...

But their r 1 ways

1-

Install miui on go

And install ultimate iphone theme...

Or

2-

for stock rom

Download espier launcher which has status bar option not this latest one slightly older one...

Install espier notification,install ios messages,install ios clock, compass,music...

All at playstore...

And delete ur default sony apps if u yave root so that ur ram consumption is limited...

Hope it works for u...

I have to say that on the latest built is the sdcard support broken!

Oke, that is a fast fix. Will be back with the next build!

Anyway, If you have wishes for the next build, pls post them! I will see what I can do!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Undermyoath:
SD cart support is broken, and the problem with installing apps is also kind of irritating tbh, you need to disable halo for it.

Also lock screen weather and battery would be welcome, and yeah I know those are AOKP cherry picks but still.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RGNDI:
Wishlist (Not Demands lol)

1.Phone UI instead of Tablet UI , maybe a chooser?

2.SD Cards Support

3.Wifi Hotspot Support

4.Home Button long press (not quite an issue if you use 3rd party launcher)

5.App install without disabling Halo

6.Battery and Weather in Lock Screen

7.

8.

10.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iWilliBlecha:
1. Do you mean settings app, etc?

2. Fast fix.

3. Will try.

4. Working on it.

5. Can´t do anything against it. Paranoid have to fix that ;)

6. Should work? Just add a Lockscreen widget?

Little thing: Google Sound search is in the next build.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] RGNDI:
Im just making a list, Will Flash the latest build with latest pa gapps right now to test hotspot, and i will test the rom the whole weekend!

Until then I've yet again switched back to my old ROM without SD card I can't restore my apps... :(

It worked for me. Though a bit tricky. Considering that its an alpha, I am happy.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
how? can you please explain a little
[Galaxy S III Android Development] thenameistoms:
As you must have seen in the video, the process is simple. Double tap the halo bubble and start sliding in any direction. Get to the notification you require and tap that notification in the bubble again.

I'm not saying that I'm a pro in this. But it did work for me.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] zenat:
Hello, thank you very much for this very fast port, however I have a concern, the "halo" disappears for no reason and does not return less than a wipe cache / dalvik and once it disappears back again with test 3 versions and version oblikas and it's always the same things, do you know why ?

(Sorry for my bad english)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] arjunpaliath:
Ok so I just tried this ROM.

The Halo feature is from the Nexus Alpha three build and it works very smoothly.

Also was able to make calls and had very good network with out any issues. The Install Button fix seems to have been fixed as far as I know.

The only issue is the Ext SD Card and once this is fixed it will be great but that being said I am reverting back to 3.15 PA since it is far more stable.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
Just sharing my personal preference for this ROM

1. replace Nexus bootanimation with original PA 3+ boot animation

2. remove CM File Manager

3. remove Superuser (Superuser already built-in ROM settings)

4. put in LockClock (CyanogenMod cLock) for homescreen clock and weather

5. replace camera with Rootbox camera - some advance functions are working

Portable hotspot not working (Turning on hotspot......) . USB tethering working fine
[Galaxy S III Android Development] iWilliBlecha:
Allready removed CM FileManager. It will be gone in the next build ;)

I got problems with the build in SuperUser so I added a other one.

The other things, oke.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] :
I got no problem with superuser.but I always allow by default all apps permission before installing any app

Any fix for hotspot?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] earthtk:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] fabioio:
Do you have HALO enabled?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] aggazz:
Can someone explain halo? E.g I have it enabled and I'm looking on facebook I get the wife to text me the little bubble appears I press it and the window opens but then Facebook will close I'll reply to the message press backwards button and I'm on my home screen?! So is this meant to happen? Thought the whole point was to carry on doing what you were with out leaving an app?! :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] -WP7User-:
No, this isn't meant to happen. The sense of HALO would be, as you described it, no to have to leave the app you're using at the moment. I can reproduce the bug you described and as HALO is in alpha stage, I assume that this is just a bug which hasn't been solved up to now. I'm sure PA team will solve this sooner or later ;)

But all in all, I think that HALO is a great thing and a real improvement to Android
