I have a low end phone(make Spreadtrum SC6820) which I have bricked and now trying to revive.My all efforts going in vain when I tried various method from fastboot to using ResearchDownload.exe flashing utility.

The phone just buzzes endlessly when switched ON or plugged in via USB,only mode seems to be working is the fastboot and ResearchDownload.exe seems to require the phone in running condition.

Please help :rolleyes::eek: !!...

Spreadtrum SC7731 : wipe userdata

Hi!

I have a tablet Roverpad Sky Expert Q10 3G (S4I103G+) with Spreadtrum SC7731 CPU.

How can I wipe userdata?

I think I need a file like SC7731_WIPE_USERDATA.pac.

I hope this thread is in the right place since I can't post in the developer forum.

I'm running LS 2.5 I tried upgrading to Nova Launcher Prime but I keep getting errors when installing. I even tried installing the APK through a file explorer but it still gives me an error. I tried uninstalling Nova but it only uninstalls the updates. I'm guessing I can't uninstall it cause it's integrated into the ROM. I tried clearing the default launcher, cleared the cache, and nothing. Anyone know what I can do or am I just sol?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
Go into system/app and delete nova from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
There's always the thanks button as well (:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] angel4u:
I have tried to do the same. First I can't find the uninstall option, Second there is disable button but that itself is disabled. So I tried to force stop it and tried to upgrade but it's not working. Can someone please help???

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cinco312:
What I did was, first, use another Launcher and set it as default, I used Apex but use whatever you like. Then go into system/app and delete nova, clear your cache, reboot, then install nova prime. I did it when I posted this topic and did it again after I updated LS 2.7 and 2.8. Works every time.

Thanks. Will give it a try...

Hi all,

after successfully upgrading my Hong Kong P6800 from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.2, things went rather south this morning.

screen shot of my current ICS version.

I tried to use the same md5 file (KIES_HOME_P6800DXMD3_P6800OLBMD3_1157844_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5) with Odin v1.85.

At the moment the Odin started to write NAND with the factotyfs.img, ODIN stopped and interupted the flashing process. :eek:

I managed to revive the tablet, by re-entering the download mode and flash the CWM 6.0.3 tar file.

Flash was ok and luckely the TAB rebooted :highfive:

Who can tell me what I did wrong, or is the simple fact that the chinese P6800 can't be flashed with this ROM?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MRBR7:
I wouldnt give up hope yet...

Get goo manager from play store...then get TWRP...

(make sure you have root access first)

from here you can have a plan B to install it.

look for "erobot rom thread" and i think the origonal stock rom is available as a downloadable zip.if not skyhigh or someone had it on there rom page.or else just use the new erobot skyhigh etc...there based on the stock one but modded..

then you can flash it with TWRP...

before flashing...

make a back up of your rom to sd card..

then do the full wipe..

eg 4wipes....1 cache 2 davlik cache 3 factory reset 4 system..

then install erobot or stock rom zip from sd card..

then RE wipe everything again...without restarting tab

re flash the rom again and should be no probs..

now reboot and should load up...

If flashing roms doesnt work I just wipe everything properly and flash twice and always works.If wont load or boot loop then need to redownload rom again and check the file size agaisnt what you are downloading vs what you have when finnished downloading to make sure its all there this will cause it to bootloop if not full file.

if still fails to boot up then go back to your back up from sd card you saved and do recovery...now you can try mobile odin or something else,but i always use TWRP and never have a problem.

I've come into this on both 4.2.2 and 4.1.2 netherlands. After integrating updates into system for all apps including samsung account , samsung apps , UNA , push , i am unable to log into my samsung account to enable phone remote control.

Anyone else came upon this and knows a way out besides reflashing and not integrating samsung apps updates again ?

LE : Seems account.samsung.com is down. I created a new samsung account and this one worked just fine. I had 4 devices added to my samsung account but my s3 wasn't in the list. Maybe theres a limit of four devices. Tried deleting older ones but there is no option for that.
[Galaxy Note II General] cb5264:
Hi guys,

Today I flashed cyanogenmod, most recent nightly as I don't use the pen and apps provided by Samsung.

First impressions

* Phone boots longer than stock.

* Temperature is higher while screen in use

* Car is able to read contacts (stock does have issues there)

* Overall the Rom feels faster and more smooth due to less stuff running in the background

* NFC tag writer cannot switch off GPS

* sound allows higher volume than stock (finally can hear others via Bluetooth)

So far, phone is usable.

These are the issues I have with CM10.1

1. Bad quality call when on speakers.

2. Skype is crashing a lot.

3. Lower battery life than stock.
[Galaxy Note II General] t-r-e:
For Me issues so far

1-Battery Life compared to stock

2-Loud Speaker Sound is distorted and unclear

3-Some Graphical Distortion when sliding up/Down some menus

*-I don't care about about s pen or multiview or other samsung gimmick I rarely use them, but these issues are basis and annoying

*-Everyweek I can't resist flashing cm saying that these problems maybe fixed this week , ending always with restoring nandroid sammy backup .

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION] which suffer the "bader" battery performance than stock TW.

I know this is TW vs. CM10.1 but I also notice "bad" battery performance on CM10.1.

Also little graphic glitches in recents.

I recommend SlimBean 6.2 Weekly by Slimroms. It is a masterpiece on performance, battery and features. Really in every aspec better.

I m still on the first battery circle and have 30 hours standby, 2 and a half hour screen on time 3 hours Music and still over 50% left.

Maybe for the one or other a good option.

Happy flashing ;)
[Galaxy Note II General] cb5264:
Battery life confirmed.

Guess it's a good idea too collect all of the bugs and keep an updated list of bugs suitable for end-users
[Galaxy Note II General] luismedina:
Picture quality using CM is way lower than stock, also, a lot of features are not available with CM camera, I know we can replace it with another Camera apps, but I think pictures quality are way higher and better using stock

I hope you guys are talking about nightly because there is not CM release yet.

Of course we are talking about nightlies , there will never be stable cm release for exynos until crapsung release proper sources .

I am also runing (always) the latest CM nightlies on my devices and i have to say that CM 10.1 is bad on the Note II when compared to the Nexus line (all my ather devices are Nexuses).

Issues i've seen till now:

bad battery life when compared to original TW ROM

slow GPS lock when mobile data is turned off

no MHL/HDMI output (again something that depends on Samsung's willingness to open their doors to us...)

poor audio quality when recording videos

poor picture quality comapres to stock camera app

I think this issues will be sorted out over time. Right now i am oscillating between stock and CM because both have good features. On the apps side there are plenty of options so running CM feels great - even the S-Pen works correctly!
[Galaxy Note II General] youss59:
Hi,

Personally I find that the most customizable cm10.1 but they are also more intensive battery. Now we can customized a stock through the development of our mods.

Each has its advantages and disadvantages but I prefer a stock.

I saw a post in this thread about getting the promotional space on AT&T S4 without flashing TMobile roms. I gave it a try, and it worked just fine. So I thought of sharing the files with you. I pulled them out of a deodexed TMobile rom.

Download the attached file. You need to push Dropbox.apk and DropboxOOBE.apk into system/app and fix permission. Then you need to push com.dropboxpartner into system/framework and again fix permission.

Then, you need to modify the build.prop using a root explorer. Find the following lines and modify them as follow:

ro.product.model=SGH-M919

ro.product.name=jfltetmo

ro.product.device=jfltetmo

Reboot your device, open the Dropbox app, and log in with your existing account, or create a new account. You will receive an email, and after fulfilling 5 of the 7 tasks, you will receive the 48 GB promotional space. After fulfilling the tasks, you can restore your build.prop to its original state.

Attached Files:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Aou:
Worked great for me, thanks! I already had 12GB and had completed the 5 Getting Started steps long ago. When I signed into the DropBox app and got it setup, I suddenly had 60GB for 24months and an email from DropBox.

Here's the instructions I followed:

Cleared cache of, cleared data of, and uninstalled the DropBox app I already had.

Reminder: backup your build.prop

I ended up using this build.prop Editor. When you open it, use the menu key to make a backup before touching anything. Then scroll through and make the changes prescribed in the OP.

Downloaded the file attached in OP.

Extracted files using my computer to my internal sdcard. Possible to do this with apps on your phone (various file explorers or unzip programs), but I found it easier to just do it over USB/MTP.

Fired up ADB Shell - could also use a terminal emulator from the device, but do not use the "stop" command below if you are using an emulator on the device.

Performed the following commands (after running "adb shell" from a command line on the computer):

$ su
# mount -o rw,remount /system
# stop
# cp /sdcard/Dropbox.apk /system/app
# cp /sdcard/DropboxOOBE.apk /system/app
# cp /sdcard/com.dropboxpartner.jar /system/framework
# reboot recovery

Device rebooted into TWRP, where I used the Advanced menu to Fix Permissions.

Rebooted back into the System like normal.

Opened the DropBox app and signed in. Setup the camera sync again of course (awesome feature).

Checked my mail - Woot.

Used the build.prop editor to restore my build.prop

Closed the build.prop editor and re-opened. For some reason after restoring the backup, the restored changes were not reflected until I restarted the editor. Whatever, but it worked.

Using terminal emulator, after using #stop, device screen goes black... what do I do, just wait?:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] aw091486:
You need to do it from your computer terminal/shell using adb shell command through the USB, not using a terminal emulator on the device. Stop does exactly what it says, it stops the device from running I think , or maybe just pauses.

You should be able to copy the files without stop though, it's probably riskier, and then you need to use reboot. You just need to copy the files into the right locations and then fix the permissions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] smnfriend:
These are linux commands. Stop, stops your device, and you cannot use it unless you reboot it. You can punch in the commands through your computer (this way, you need to install android sdk. Then, open the installed folder, and go to sdk\platform-tools. Here, you should hold shift, right click and select "open command window here", and punch the commands). Also, you can simply use a root explorer, and manually move the files to their folders and fix permissions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] starscrean:
Just pull the battery and reboot. It happened to me also.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Cinosinu:
What does this mean? I have ES fie explorer, trying to move the files I get a rewrite error. Do i need to fix the permissions first? What is the adb command?:confused:

thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Cinosinu:
I got it!!! :victory:

Why didn't someone tell me you must use the command 'ADB Shell' to start? :rolleyes:

I'm no expert with ADB obviously. Knew it was something trivial. Hope someone else finds my comment helpful. :highfive:

Thank you OP and all! XDA rocks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Aou:
Thanks for pointing these things out. Yes, "stop" should only be used if doing this from an ADB shell. I've updated my instructions a tad bit to reflect this. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] kalparker:
How can i do this for multiple accounts? I logged out and in and no luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] xrabbitfootx:
did you do a factory reset, re-install of your ROM, then the steps again? that may help by giving you a different device ID (you may have had this warning before in TiBU), which i'm guessing DB is looking for to limit 1 upgrade per device ID.

-rf
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Aou:
That might work. In TiBu, I have the option to create a new, random device ID - might be a Pro feature only. Check your menu key, and near the bottom you can Manager your Device ID...

I would advise a nandroid backup first - this may screw up some of your other accounts, including Google. I've personally never tried it, but I would imagine it could cause some amount of chaos.
