[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeTorran:
Hi,

I bought a S4 from Three a while ago.

Today, after waiting ages for the latest firmware updates, noticed that my region code is BTU, and that the latest firmware for this region is the first one! This angered me alot so I wanted to install some of the latest updates that have region code DBT, I hear if you install this your region code will change and then I'll get all the future ones too..

I am very new to this, so this topic is basically asking for help..

What will happen? Can I change region code to DBT this way?

And what do I need to do, I found some guides that tell me to use Odin, but say I need unlocked bootloader and I am not aware of how to do this.

Thanks

Hey Guys,

i have a problem with flashing custom recovery on my I9505(jfltexx).

When i flash "DBT-I9505XXUBMEA-20130601103235" via Odin and in addition the "CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505" my phone boots up, most of the time but not all the time. Now when i try to flash custom Recovery via Odin, my phone stucks at the Samsung Galaxy Logo and it wont continue. Even if i enter the standard recovery from Goomanager and i select "reboot system now" it stucks on the Logo!

Any Help?

Thanks in Advance
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
U can try going to Stock or The recovery u installed which ever u are able to open

Just wipe cache & reboot

It should work well if this does not work

And flash PHILZ recovery 100 % there wont be any problem and ya after flashing a firmware do Reset from the device and then flash recovery
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faschoda:
Yeah but thats the problem. I can't enter the recovery mode and when i try to flash a PRE-rooted rom from djembey my device stuck at the BootLogo.

In a nutshell: There is no option performing a wipe!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
do not enter the recovery from and app

to enter a recovery power off device unplug it

press volume up + home + power all together till samsung logo appear and realease it

U will have a stock recovery or the one u installed

from there u will have factory reset and wipe cache bth option

let me know or some images u get would be more easy for us to help you with
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faschoda:
Thanks for your effort. But i have to tell you the whole Story.

Yesterday i wanted to install the PA-Rom from verttigo. Before i was on the OMEGA 6.0 Version with Ktsoonez custom kernel. So i entered the recovery mode, did a backup, Full-Wipe, and then the huge MISTAKE, I formatted data and system and everything was gone. No Backup i could reinstall nor a ROM i could install. Than my phone rebooted and stucked at the samsung Logo. So i thought the F shall i do?!?!

I entered the download Mode and tried to install the prerooted Rom from djembey but i stucked also on the samsung logo. Since than im sitting in front of my Phone crying! :D:D
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Ok now i get it as per what i see i can still get your device back to normal but myte take multiple try rest assured it will work

1st flash a stock firmware again (not rooted pure stock) this time using pit file along with firmware

and while flashing the firmware using odin and pit do check re-partition also

Note with out pit file do not check the re-partition box

and once the flashing is done device should boot if its not booting

go to stock recovery like how i told u earlier and do factory reset and wipe cache

and reboot

and tell me the status.. all the best

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2265477&highlight=stock+firmware get pit file/ stock firmware from here for ur variant
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faschoda:
So let me get this clear. In Odin i should check the stock Rom in PIT instead of PDA? And check the Re-Partion box?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
In Odin

PDA - u should select firmware stock one

PIT - select pit file

Re- partition should be check follow the image and flash

If Re-Partition is checked u must have pit file also do not forget that else u myte brick ur device
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lzk123:
Based on what you said, it seem like you still have all the partitions intact. Just that they are empty right now.

Did you do a full backup before all this problem happen? Or did you do a custom backup?

Are your backups stored in external memory and is a full backup? If so, try using custom recovery to restore your backup?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faschoda:
That's Bull****. Nothing worked -.-
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lzk123:
Chill. Your phone is definitely not bricked. I encountered your problem before when i was experimenting with something.

- Right now, boot to whatever recovery that you have. Try to wipe cache, dalvik, and any other partition if possible.

- After that, boot to download mode and try to flash STOCK rom using odin. Check that flash was success.

- Try to boot your phone and report here on what happens.

Edit: You might want to consider restarting your computer and changing usb port. "Faulty" Usb port will affect the flashing part.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faschoda:
Again thanks for your effort! Much appreciated!

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLYYY C*****************************************************!!!

That worked. It boots now!!!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lzk123:
Glad to hear that. :D

Remember to always make a nandroid backup! I recommend using Philz Touch Recovery
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faschoda:
How shall i install custom recovery? Via Odin or can i boot into stock recovery and apply update from there?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lzk123:
Download the .tar file of the custom recovery. Flashed it through odin, at the PDA section.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samersh72:
Behave your speech smart guy, they are trying to help!

general rule on how to fix a bootloop:

1- Wipe data and cache. If not,

2- Restore a nandroid backup if available. If not,

3- Flash stock firmware, If not,

4- Flash stock firmware with pit file (you can try pit file alone).

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] BeyondtheTech:
Took me a couple of hours of finding out which files where needed and how to rebuild an unremovable CAB file, but I've done it!

I downflashed to 1.31 WWE from the Arabic PDA2K and pulled off the Camera-related files. Then, I flashed back to mamaich's hack of Siemen's 1.33.10 upgrade (thank you so much, I have voicemail notifications!). I took the Camera patch CAB file from Wiki and replaced all the necessary files and threw the new CAB file into my Extended ROM and hard-resetted my PDA2K.

Now, I'm at 1.33.10 with Radio 1.06.02 and full Camera and MMS support on my PDA2K! Woohoo!

You can run the CAB file on your existing setup, or you can pop it into your Ext. ROM, too.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] bryman55:

Thanks, MDAIIIUser, the page looks awesome.

In keeping up with the latest version, I noticed that the original Camera Patch CAB file I ripped apart has a more recent build of 17576 as opposed to the one I posted from the 1.31 ROM of 17084.

Here's the updated Camera Install CAB file with the allegedly newer Camera.exe executable (2.21 build 17576):

Soory to say this But I feel there is an even better one

I think they got the version nr screwed up. I had a hex dump look at the higher build, the file is longer, has more text at the end of it and has a higher date stamp.

Agree. Changing resolution doesn't change the HDMI negotiations with the TV. I also have similar problem and would love to be able to force the HDMI signal so it doesn't auto negotiate. Doesn't work on my bedroom TV where I need hdmi the most :(

[LG Nitro HD] uvbeenzaned:
I can't seem to charge my phone while android is not booted in to. When I plug the phone in to charge it while it's off it goes past the LG screen and then immediately to a black backlight screen but no battery charging animation. Does this have something to do with the ROM or is that a separate boot thing altogether?
[LG Nitro HD] bumbum.droid:
Maybe your phone crashed. Happens to me all the time when my phone is fully discharged. I have to pull the battery before i can turn it on again.
[LG Nitro HD] uvbeenzaned:
No, because I am actually doing this from a clean shutdown. There's no way.
[LG Nitro HD] KronicSkillz:
it's a bug caused by cyanogenmod based roms that causes the off screen charge to not show up.

to get your phone back into charge do the following.

pull battery

put battery back

plug into charger, wait 2-3 minuts, unplug charger, and pull battery again, then replace.

turn phone on unplugged until you see boot animation, plug the phone back in and charge while the phone is on.

install wind kernel to fix the bug.
[LG Nitro HD] uvbeenzaned:
It's funny you say that because I do that very often and in fact I've been running the Wind Kernel (now on v2.3) along with Jellybam (a cyan based rom) for more than 6 months or so now. :P So, any other suggestions?

P.S. Don't worry about me not being able to boot into the phone, I can do that just fine. :) Thanks for helping anyway. :)

Been trying to view my holiday photos via the stock Asus gallery. Is the best gallery app I've found it auto rotates pictures to the correct way which things such as es photo viewer doesn't do.

The photos are saved to my micro sd and the gallery finds the album fine. But when I start to look through the album via gallery it works for a while then force closes. No reason why it should. Any ideas?

[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Try clearing cache and data for the Gallery app.

and/or: try Quickpic. Much better than Gallery IMHO

What's CROMi-X 4.5.5?? :confused: Not a version I made :) :eek: :cyclops:

lol - anyway sounds like you have a lot of pictures and it might be closing due to lack of free ram? Can you try putting less pictures in a folder for me to see if that is the case or clear the storage media in apps and try that - I bet you have gigabytes of pictures.
[Asus Transformer TF700] KinetiClutch:
Lol sorry got carried away with the amount of versions :p

I'm running CROMI-X 4.6.7 and I'm heving some issues with the gallery, but the original gallery. It starts after I flashed the PhotoSphere from CROMI-X. After take a picture with Photosphere, and after renderizing the photo, the gallery sudenlly stop. I don't now why. I have just some 10 pictures on gallery.

By the way, I tried to do a clean flash to everything and now I have to cameras (one the normal and the other one the camera with photo sphere) and have 2 galleries to (but they are the same, no difference). But on this time, the gallery didn't crash.

install Gscript

create a shell script containing :

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.wifi.Settings_Wifi_Settings

- Place the script in /sdcard/gscript/

- Load it

Gscript allows you to create a desktop shortcut to the script.

Voila. You have a shortcut to advanced wifi settings on your desktop.

Alternatively you can write a simple apk to run this command (you will get your own custom icon).

You can use my FastMode2.apk as a model.

[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] nmyshkin:
It might be. If you want to try anyway, copy the PlayStore URL and paste it into here. Then try to sideload/install and see if the NSTG will let you. If not, you need an earlier/compatible version.

Parsing error. That means it's for a higher Android version. Unfortunately none of the postings I could find re:Launcher8 give the version number. The current market version is 3.x

If you follow the link on the PlayStore page to the app website it looks like maybe you can download a version 2.x? Or you can try here and see if one of the older versions will install.
