[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tinkleondabeach:
If the tech can verify the issue I'm still charged the $50 right? I assume the free warranty process through returning to Samsung would take like a month without a phone right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Stealyourface:
I was told around 2 weeks when I asked Samsung about replacing my phone because of a screen defect. Can't go that long without a phone though so I'm just dealing with my screen defect. I'll maybe get it replaced before I sell it or the year is up. Whatever is first.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tinkleondabeach:
Yeah I hate Samsung and Sprint, I'm probably going to have to pay $50 for a refurb'd replacement cause the phone they gave me is defective.

Does anyone know if I will void the warranty if I were to open up the casing of the s4?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Stealyourface:
Yes you will void the warranty if you open it up.
[HTC Droid DNA] the waco kid:
So basically moonshine is the only option if you take the ota to get s-off. so i have all the drivers installed and and start moonshine and it all goes good until it says rebooting into bootloader <again> waiting for fastboot <9/60> then instead of going to the next step it makes dashes (-) that fill up the comand promt and my phone is in the fastboot menu. I let it do that for about An hour *and I've tried multiple times. Any ideas ?

*

Additional info running windows 7 phones on 4.1.1 with the 2.06.605.1 710 RD update, usbdebug is on fastboot is off. Phone is fully charged. Htcsync is uninstalled and im using usb 2.0 with factory HTC cable.
[HTC Droid DNA] d08speed3:
Try different drivers (pdanet) and disable your firewall and antivirus. I tried everything 2 with moonshine. I was so frustrated. Took me a whole day to finally work. Disabling firewall, anti virus, and loading different drivers finally worked!!!!!

BTW I was stuck in the EXACT spot where your having trouble!

Also.....after each unsuccessfully try reboot your phone and reattempt

Make sure you have the latest android SDK tools installed as well. Great video here if you are lost with this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdeIol1m6A0&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Uninstall any HTC drivers and just plug the phone in and let it build drivers directly from the phone.

Hope my tips help.

Try these drivers http://www.mediafire.com/download/eqrqb44r3ot18g1/HTCDriver_4.2.0.001.exe

[HTC Droid DNA] the waco kid:
Tried all that except the pda drivers and the firewall. Going to give it a go tomorrow thanks it is driving me crazy and it helps to have someone else's input so i really appreciate it.
[HTC Droid DNA] fr4nk1yn:
MoonShine didn't work for me. Try RevOne. If that doesn't initially work try omitting the -P switch in the first step and continue.
[HTC Droid DNA] reaverclan:
if it fails grab a ubuntu 32 bit live cd and use those instructions it took me about 10 minutes to do mine since it reboots the phone about 20 times lol.
[HTC Droid DNA] the waco kid:
Alright I used revone and finally got s-off unlocked but I tried flashing twrp and it hangs when trying to enter recovery. It says enteringrecovery and I have to hold power to reboot it.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Use goo manager app to flash it l, that's what I did and twrp works perfectly.
[HTC Droid DNA] Chenzo57:
moonshine works

plug your usb cable into a port directly on the mobo, be sure you have installed all of the HTC drivers(remove the sync program and any other HTC programs), makes sure your adb is up to date.

The first night i did it, it didnt work and I kept getting the WTF? What are you doing? error.

2nd night, made sure adb and drivers installed(restart pc), used port on modo instead of hub, changed screen timeout settings to 10 mins instead of never, (ran adb.exe as admin), ran moonshine as admin(win 7x64) and it worked. I screenshot the results if ud like to see.

Kernel mode - driver SecMgr.sys and user mode - CI.dll.

I think these is important winload.exe,bootmgr,ci.dll,SecRuntime.dll

The Windows RT jailbreak won't work as-is on WP8, since WP8 uses a different version of win32k and csrss. It's possible the exploit is still there but it's not too likely we'll get the tools that leaked from MS like they did on RT to actually do it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jayRokk:
Since the GS3 has become a popular device, the need to root and install custom firmware has risen!

We have a lot of user who dont take the time to read and sometimes make an oopsie when flashing :eek:

Knowing terms and acronyms is a MUST for XDA users. Users are also advised to take precaution when flashing.

Enough with the chit-chat here is what you should know about "bricked" phones.

IS MY PHONE BRICKED??

Lets identify YOUR brick :highfive:

1.SOFT-BRICKED : An operable phone. Boots up, but either stuck on the splash screen or the boot animation.

2.HARD-BRICKED :A hard brick describes a smart phone, with corrupted firmware or a hardware problem, that can no longer function.

This means it doesnt function at all. It doesnt boot up or does anything, just like a brick.

Now that you've identified your phone lets look below for a fix :D

IF YOUR PHONE MATCHES OPTION 1 LOOK HERE!!

A soft brick is easily fixed in most cases, here is what you can do to fix your phone!

-Boot into Recovery (Vol Up + Home Button + Power Button) and wipe your data/cache/delvik cache and factory reset and start all over.

-If Recovery fails, try booting into Download Mode (Vol Down + Home Button + Power Button) and use Odin to get into stock firmware and start again.

(if youre using a Mac, Linux or Ubuntu Heimdall can be used to flash stock firmware)

-Also make sure the downloaded ROM/GApps are not corrupt when youre flashing. You can do this by checking the MD5.

-If youre getting a "STATUS 7" error, please update your recovery, or update your bootloader.

More info on Root/ROMs/Mods Here

IF YOUR PHONE MATCHES OPTION 2 LOOK HERE!!

A Hard Brick.... the death of a phone.

-If you flashed international firmware, there is one guide that might help you found HERE .

-If that guide doesnt get your phone back up the only service available is JTAG found HERE

Please search before posting, there is 5 million users on XDA, someone else has had your problem and likely posted about it.

Everyting can be found in Q&A section on XDA or by using the search feature.

This guide was made to be read or be directed to for "bricked" phone threads. If mods feel the need it is not necessary please close :)

Help! In mid unbricking

I have a rooted Galaxy S3. Rooted it a few years ago when it came off warranty. Samsung pushed a software update last night that totally froze my phone - won't get past the Samsung splash screen on boot. AT&T kindly offered to sell me a new phone but declined any other help. I went to trusty XDA and found this page. The phone is plugged into my work laptop for power via USB. I did down volume - home - start and it booted and asked if I wanted to boot a custom OS or standard. I clicked volume up for custom (because it was rooted) and it now shows a few lines of status, the android logo, "downloading ...", "Do not turn off target !!" My laptop does not show anything on USB. It is not prepared to do anything with the phone. It has been like this for half an hour. Is it doing anything? Wait how long? The "Do not turn off target!!" is ominous. What to do now?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
What operating system is on your laptop? Did you install the proper USB drivers for the phone?

Do you see anything about warranty bit in the screen where it says "Do not turn off..."?

I recommend that you unplug the phone, remove the battery, replace the battery, and charge up the phone completely.

When you have the USB drivers installed, open Odin 3.07, put the phone in download mode, and make sure it appears in Odin on a com port. It could be com4,5,6, etc.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dragonblade629:
Soft Bricked

I got a notification for a software update from ATT, I was dumb and downloaded it without thinking and installed it, then when my phone went to reboot it would boot past the Samsung logo to the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo and then just shuts off. I booted into Recovery mode, and when I did that, it displayed red text before the normal Manual mode stuff -

E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /data/fota/ipth-muc.prop
E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /data/fota/ipth-muc.prop
E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /data/fota/ipth-muc.prop

Unfortunately I can't remember if it was giving me this error before I started trying to fix the problem.

When I attempted to wipe the cache, it says the wipe is successful, but before rebooting it gives me "E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)" again. My problem isn't solved and it continues to shut off after the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo.

I then have tried multiple times to do a Factory Reset, and what displays is -

-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p15
Formatting /cache...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p17
Data wipe complete.
E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

And again, it will only boot to the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo.

I've revisted it a few hours later because I had work, now I don't get any of the red text but I have the same problems.

I would try using Kies/Odin to repair this, but the MicroUSB port does not work. Would I be able to put new firmware/OS on my SD card to repair it? Or am I **** out of luck until my contract goes up in November?

Have you uninstalled the driver that installs when you plu the phone in and replacing it with the drivers for our phones that are available in droidstyles thread?

Also you need to try different USB cords, some will not work with out devices for some reason. Also try different ports on the computer, note that they have to be 2.0 ports and not 3.0 ports.

Hi all,

Micromax a110 comes with excellent features except for the 'low' audio volume while playing videos.

Audio quality is excellent in PowerAmp for playing songs.

But while playing videos through BSplayer Free (best video player in android IMHO) the audio volume is too low in headset as well as loudspeaker.

Any advice on how to increase the volume? Are softwares like VolumeBoost or SpeakerBoost safe to use?

Buy the pro version of bs player which has the option to increase the volume to 200%.. 300%...... which is quite loud...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m@estr0:
Hi All,

Apologies in advice if the question I am asking is going to come across as a silly one.

I am about to purchase a new HTC One 4G LTE phone.

It will have the 4.2.1 OS with Sense 5.

I was holding out for the Google Edition but apparently it will take months before it gets to my region.

I am very new to the whole Android ROM flashing and BootLoader unlocking process - so am yet to understand how it all works, and hence here is my question

What is the probability that in the near future that I get to replace the current ROM with that of the ROM on the new Google Edition HTC Ones being released this month in the US.

HTC has released something on htcDEV for the Google Edition - what exactly is it?

Will it only be a custom ROM that mimics / or tries to do a close port of the Google Edition HTC One ROM - or will it be exactly the same?

Keen to understand how it all works and if I should wait or just go ahead and purchase my new phone.

Cheers.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a box of kittens:
The probability is very high that you can replace your current Rom with the official Google one...you'll have choices to choose from...if you want you can go from what exactly Google has provided or you can go more custom but with Google's kernel source in there... Whatever you wish...they released the kernel source on HTC dev..this basically killed any bugs we had left in our custom roms ..we can implement that in there...

I'm the next few days you'll see more development coming through with this new release
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eHabaski:
Presumably you can, since it's all the same phone with same specs. Best of all, devs will probably be able to fill in the missing gaps in original roms using data from the GE phone.
