[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] satrapo:
Hi, i have exactly same problem here (bootloader version 1.06), reading all the forums but no luck thus far. Problem is I don't have a mate with an xda 2. Anybody know where i can find the image needed and how to save it to SD card? I am no techie so step by step instructions would be welcome :oops: If nothing else works, if any kind soul would be so kind to email the image to me, (in chunks if its too big to email) I would be forever grateful

TIA for your help, hoping to get my xda 2 back form the dead :?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] satrapo:
some more details... my xda 2 is brand new uk version locked to O2. Anyone with a dump image that could solve my problem? TIA
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] _JP_:
Gday mate,

You are in the UK so I don't think my image is going to work, but since you are desparate I will post it here.

I can't help you out too much, I created the image with the hex editor mentioned in the above posts, I have not had time to play with it and can only tell you that it is an image of the 128mb flash card that i fixed my xda with.

While I have dumped it from the card, I have not actually experimented with how to write the image back to the card so I think if you are not a techie you will struggle a bit to get it working.

Note that this is the Asia Pacific image and will probably not work in your xda since you are in the UK.

If you do manage to write the image to the SD card, just put it in the slot and reboot the xda and it will tell you to press the power button to download.

Can I suggest that this forum might be a good place to post other SD ROM recovery images for other regions apart from the one I have???
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] satrapo:
thanks

i will try and download it... waiting for a fellow from the forum who has the right image (hopefully) to get back to me... and i am surprised as u r these images are not readily available on the net.. I think they would solve many problems in case something goes wrong when u update. As a matter of fact these image files should be available form the product support (just like windows boot disks are available to repair a desktop computer) thanks for ur help, if anybody knows how to dump the image correctly, please post the procedure here (will need it for uk image too)... I am not asking too much am i? :D

cheers

When I reboot, it doesn't ask me anything

Thank you for your help.

I have copy the image to the my SD card and try to reboot like what you mentioned, but it doesn't ask me anything. All it did was just showing the serial v1.06. I tried the power + direction pad + rest and it is no use. Am I doing any thing wrong?
[Android General] ZippyDan:
i am running the

GPS Test

app on two Android phones: an HTC Inspire 4G and an HTC Desire. Both are exhibiting similar symptoms:

1. I get several satellites In View, maybe as many as 10 or 11

2. All the satellites also show as In Use (all 6 or 7 or 8 or 11)

3. The SNR for all Satellites is between 15 and 30

4. At the top left GPS Status shows as GPS On but the little circle is YELLOW

5. At the top middle, Accuracy shows as 0 and does not update

I believe that In Use indicates a "lock", but it seems that I am not getting any actual location information. My main problem is with items 4.and 5., as I did see my phone have a GREEN circle once, and I also saw the Accuracy field update with actual numbers.

What exactly does my yellow circle and lack of accuracy reading mean? And how can I fix it?

I'm currently on stock 3.14 and got a update notification for 3.20, the only mod if done is a custom kernel. Is it safe for me to install the update, I've also got clockworkmod recovery
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
You need to have stock rom(boot.img) + stock recovery to install updates...
[HTC One X] Nitin985:
Can I just reflash them both?
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Yes... You can.. But make sure your using the correct boot and recovery files to flash...

Edit: since ur on stock rom... U just need the correct recovery file... Thats it.. :)
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Not if he flashed a custom kernel too (as stated in the OP) Then he needs the stock boot.img and also the stock modules !

What's the main version number

Fastboot getvar version-main

I can make you a flashable zip for the modules. That we way you can safe yourself from restoring a full backup ;)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jakeryan760:
I just installed liquidsmooth 4.2.2 official and googleapps i cleared cache etc before i installed too. Everything installed fine but when I went to reboot the device it wont boot up. I can get back into recovery mode but I unfortunately forgot to make a back up. What can I do? Also my father has the exact same phone as me. If need be can I use his SD card to make a backup and then put it in my phone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jakeryan760:
How do I go about doing that? Sorry I'm very new to this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rani9990:
Go to wipe in TWRP recovery. Factory reset should be in your options. Then flash again
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jakeryan760:
I;m using clockworkmod recovery v6 .0 .3 .1 and I do not see that option
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Da Kine:
Wipe data/factory reset.....its the 4th option
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jakeryan760:
I tried that and it didn't work. Nothing will boot. I tried wipe data factory reset and rebooted nothing, tried it with flash after as well and nothing.

I have the SGH T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] IXChicharitoXI:
Did you factory reset, wipe cache, and reflash the rom? If that fails I guess at least you can Odin.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Da Kine:
Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache

Wipe data/factory reset

Flash ROM

Flash gapps

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache

Reboot device

↑if that fails, get to a computer and download another ROM, place it on the SD card, pull the battery out of your phone and insert the SD card. Put the battery back into the phone and boot into recovery and try the steps above, but instead try flashing the new ROM and only flash the gapps if needed (usually stated in the op of the ROMs thread).

↑if it still fails then Odin back to stock and I guess try rooting again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: flashing roms

If you are not sure what happened and why it happened and just want to fix the phone so it boots normally into

the stock-rooted Samsung Jellybean v4.1.1 rom so you can start over again or if you decided that Liquidsmooth

is not for you then here is the step by step guide to get your phone working again.

After getting the phone working properly, I suggest that you flash the Wicked v10 custom rom. (it's excellent)

P.S. there is no OFFICIAL Samsung v4.2.2 roms for out phones yet, the liquidsmooth is the official CM10/AOKP Android rom.

Easy and sure way to to get your phone back up and running properly with this step by step guide:

After you have followed these instructions your phone will be in the same condition

as it was the day you have purchased it except with the benefit of being rooted.

Download the stock-rooted T999 firmware: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426451

After downloading it make a folder on your computer's desktop and unzip the

file using Winzip or 7zip so the .TAR file is in the new folder you just made.

Here is a link for ODIN which is required for flashing the stock rooted firmware (a windows app) http://d-h.st/Q14

Download and extract Odin into the same folder you made containing the TAR file.

Download the Odin Flash firmware for T999 Tmobile then copy it to the same folder as Odin

Run Odin by double clicking the Odin.exe within the same folder as the TAR file you extracted

Turn off your phone and boot into

DOWNLOAD MODE

(Volume Down + Home + Power Hold until phone powers up, then release and press Volume Up to enter Download Mode)

Once in Download Mode, connect the USB/Charger cable to the phone and plug into the USB port on your computer.

You should now see a COM** port listed toward the top-left of Odin (under ID:COM)

Click on the PDA button in the middle-right area of Odin.

Browse to and select the Firmware you downloaded (TAR file)

Make sure Auto-Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only options checked and that PDA is the only other thing checked.

TRIPLE CHECK your settings and that you have selected the correct firmware for your model phone and are using the correct options.

If you are using a laptop, make absolutely sure you are plugged in, or if on battery, that it is charged enough and will not go into sleep mode during flash.

Click Start to begin the flash. This will take a while, so be patient!

Once complete, in the top-left box in Odin, it will say PASS and the phone should have automatically rebooted.

You may unplug the phone and close Odin if you wish.

Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the system to boot the first time and then build its cache!

(It may seem to hang during boot, this is normal and you must be patient!!!)

Good Luck!

Lets get this baby going

Although i know my way around C++, i am no way near able to make this work, so for all of us "noobs" who just wants to get this going, how about we chip in to make it a bit more worth the developers while?

I know its not much, but i will donate at least 10 usd to the guy who comes out with the first working beta (booting, touch, sound and wifi/RIL).

I have the I9295 (Galaxy S4 Active), so it would need to run on that, for the developer to claim the 10 bucks.
