[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oen-:
Hey,

I'm completely lost at this point. I recently got a new HTC One from Bell in Canada. Everything was fine before I decided to root it. I followed all the steps thoroughly in Mike's guide and everything was fine. My phone was rooted, unlocked and had a custom recovery. I ran into a problem when I tried to place a Custom ROM onto my phone. First, Windows kept giving me the error that the device stopped responding when I was trying to place the .zip onto the virtual SD card. Then it began showing a progress bar which did not move at all and the file wasn't being transferred. I've tried to troubleshoot through several other threads but unfortunately found no answers.

HTC One displays that I have zero available storage in the "Storage" section of the Settings app. I have tried to transfer files with both HTC Sync Manager and uninstalling it while just using the Windows drivers. I have also tried to do it with USB debugging on and off.

I'm hoping someone can help me, thank you in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
settings app?

just right click the file and select send to htc one
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oen-:
I can't. Like I said in my original post, Windows either says the device isn't responding or the progress bar just doesn't move.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
format sd in recovery and then sideload
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oen-:
Could you clarify how/what I should sideload?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
what are you trying to go stock or install a custom rom?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oen-:
For now, doesn't matter as long as I can transfer files to and from my phone. Preferrably custom rom.

I formatted the SD card but I still have the same issue.

Here's a screenshot:

try sideload. if you have all in one toolkit select sideload rom and put your phone into recovery select side load there also
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oen-:
Did the sideload on the custom ROM, it's saying it's flashing the new ARHD ROM but the progress bar is not moving.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryche666:
i had the same problem. I used the all in one tool kit and switched from cwm to twrp and **** went back to normal. loaded up and kicked ass since i flashed a sense kernel like a dumb ass and lost all button functions until the battery died so i can boot to recovery.

I gave my sister a S2 for her account. rooted Jellybean installed. its been fine for the last 6 months or so.

now its stuck at the 4G logo screen or constantly reboots itself back to the 4G screen.

I tried holding vol up and power to "wipe" the device but it errors displaying this

Suggestions?

I THINK she may have tried to install some sort of update accidentally (something I specifically told her not to do) she says it said something about some update and then rebooted and swears she did not install one.

so I really have no clue what actually happened.

suggestions? what can I do to recover this bugger.?

I was able to get into download mode. so I want to odin in a rom.

WHAT do I odin in? I HAD jellybean installed but I have NO CLUE what "SHE" may have installed.

what is "safe" to odin over? step by step would be nice I have done quite a bit of flashing but always by "directions" never "on the fly" on my own :)

I AM NOT certain but I THINK this is what I had installed

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191954

and is what I am downloading now.

suggestions? does this seem like the right procedure?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
That screenshot is due to her having stock android recovery, not custom recovery. The link you sent is good to Odin. Dave the tar to your computer, put computer in download mode, flash tar. Good luck...btw, you said s2, make sure it's epic 4g touch before you flash that sucker(sph-d710).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
Yes the SPRINT epic 4g touch D710.

so is that what happened? she installed some sort of update that whacked the recovery as well?

my concern was I know you have to do something "different" when going between ginger and jelly. my fear is she installed some ginger update?? (I have no idea what the "stock" firmware for this is :)

connection is slow right now downloading the 500mb file. Grrrr :)

anyway to flat out DISABLE updates ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Lol....I believe there is. I know there was for ICS. It was a zip called otakill I believe. Flashing that stock rom should be fine. And if she had custom recovery before, and ran an update, it flashed over the custom, that's what I would think :). You have to partition between gb and jb custom roms, but that rom you are flashing should be fine. If you run into issues, let me know. Good luck.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
You are flashing an entire jb stock ROM..it takes a little bit. I would give it awhile. And the last time I flashed a one click it didn't take the first time. If it doesn't take after a considerable amount of time, say 10 minutes, download the tar again, and try the new download. Sometimes you get a bad download, but pc Odin a Rom takes a bit, be patient :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
its been sitting their since 0835 that is 40 minutes. Can't redownload right now will have to try later. I downloaded the self extracting which should alleviate "bad download" concerns since it should fail to extract if its a bad download.

will redownload later and see what happens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Hmmm...that's odd. Maybe you need to start from scratch, stock unrooted, before you try to flash rooted. If it doesn't take next time, that's what I'd do. I know you're doing this anyway(hopefully), but make sure you read all of the OPs, watch the recommended videos, etc. Good luck man.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Try flashing a one click instead of a tar. And if that hangs up, try flashing just a custom recovery. If that takes, you can get into cwm and flash a zip version of the rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
I was running jelly bean. what is the correct recovery to odin?

I already tried flashing a bone stock tar via odin (after trying the one click) same result. stalls at cache.img

uhhh these 500mb downloads are killing me :) hehe

which specific zip do you suggest? and which recovery tar ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Dl a stock jb zip, gb27 will work. If it flashes in recovery, you won't have cwm, but that's ok, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. And use stock el26 cwm tar by chris41g. If it flashes in Odin, it may reboot to Samsung logo, that's ok, just reboot to recovery.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stryke_the_Orc:
You're still able to get into download mode correct?

If you can get to download mode do the following:

Uninstall kies and Samsung drivers,Download ODIN 1.85 from here and install it (the newer versions have been known to fail flashes on occasion), plug your usb cable into pc not the phone, open ODIN and navigate to PDA (like you did before) and open, choose the GB27 tar file. Make sure that repartition is NOT checked, now connect your phone and wait for the com light to come on, once it lights up press start.

Now the reason I suggest this yet again is because you're trying to flash from ODIN v3+, Kies and Odin are known to conflict sometimes, and the repartition box will always cause issues without a pit file (these are dangerous to play with if you're not familiar with them)

It's unusual, but not unheard of, for a one click would fail. If all else fails, and this doesn't work for you, please post the exact model number under the battery of your device, so that we can determine if there are any discrepancies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
ok got 1.85 from your link. I do not have kies installed. I uninstalled the samsung drivers but now windows sits at install drivers and odin never see's the phone (of course I just removed the drivers that LET it see the phone ???) what was supposed to happen?

ahh interesting. unplugged it and plugged it in again and this time odin saw the phone (I guess it installed some sort of driver ??)

but no joy. same result.

Slithering from the nether regions of a twisted mind and tarnished soul
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
so far I have tried 4 pc's and 3 USB cables. never a change in results. 3 running xp 1 running windows 7

2 of these pc's have flashed this very phone in the past.

1 cable is my orange cable and the other 2 are stock samsung cable both good quality cables.

I can look for more cables but that does not seem to be the issue here.

dug up a 4th cable. no joy. no change.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stryke_the_Orc:
Man, what got flashed? LOL

OK, you're able to get to Odin mode, the PC recognized your device, but install fails as soon as it begins to write the images...

4 cables one of them should have worked if that was the issue, and several different pc's...

Reinstalling drivers didn't do anything...

Different version of Odin...

I assume you've verified md5?

Have you tried other downloads, or the same file?

Maybe try flashing say, FL24 with Odin, then the GB27. If FL24 flashes then you know its the GB27 thats failing. Where are you grabbing your download from?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
I posted the links in the other thread. I got them from here on xda forums threads.

I have tried a tar a one click a cwm and a direct boot cwm. md5 validated.

I will try an older kernel and see what happens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stryke_the_Orc:
Try this link http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=166 download that tar and try flashing it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
that is the site I got the first tar and first one click from. tried root and stock. it was linked from a thread here on xda that exact site.

tried this fl24 .4 kernel

http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=106

same failure. no change.

what about kies? when I try to boot the phone is says try recovery mode in kies? can I "flash" the phone in this kies thing? if yes how do I get it ?

took 5 hours but I finally got another one click downloaded trying it now.

same failure. stops at cache.img
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noobtoob:
I hate to tell you this, but your phone is most likely toast. This had happened quite a bit recently, and mainly with people running stock rooted gb27. Just read through all these threads. I went so far as to grab the pit file and old el30 files that were released. It worked on mine, but I didn't have any issues in the first place. tanminivan had this problem a few weeks ago, and we c couldn't recover his phone either, no master what was tried. A few others I tried to help in the same boat. I hope phone is insured...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
not only uninsured (its an S2 not expensive) but its a "special" phone :(

what about this heimdall program? an alternative to odin. where do I get kernels or recoveries for that program?

also WHAT could have caused this? nothing was flashed. she got some "update" message and when it rebooted ......

of course she did not read it. what else is new.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noobtoob:
Unknown what causes it. Seems to me a different form of the emmc bug we had when ICS initially released. I am thinking more or less myself it has something to do with the /preload partition, but I am not advanced enough to figure it out.

Heimdall probably won't help you out at this point, but what the hell. There was a one click heimdall file for fi27. I used it once in order to recover from my Mac, it worked just fine, and is worth a shot. Other than that, read up on how to use it, cause it is mostly command line, and there are a bunch of prerequisites you need to do on order to get it installed correctly. I used to flash modems and kernels quite a bit with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Heimdall is for those who have Linux or Mac and want to root Sammy devices or flash stuff, meaning Heimdall works on Linux, Mac, Odin does not. Heimdall will work on Windows, but I would definitely read up on it. Here's a couple links:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755265

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1937853

But there are many more, and I would suggest reading ALL you can before trying.

And try flashing through Kies, it can't hurt to try. You are rooted so it probably won't take, but hey, it's worth a try.

I recollect somewhere a quote that an average web page is 50k of data so if you're going to be accessing 20 pages that'd be 50x20 ie 1000k of data.
