[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dapwnager:
Okay, i just got an error message from kies which is good since that means it's stopped trying.

Can i just flash it from emergency recovery mode? Every tutorial out there tells me to get into download mode which i can't get into.

I'm going to try it the Kies-way one more time while running it as an administrator and see if that works in the meantime.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dapwnager:
Yes!, i just tried it using the "use the recovery code" or something button and it's actually counting now.

Thanks for the help anyway.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laura almeida:
Let us know if the Kies-way is Working..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dapwnager:
I don't really know what happened now but it seems to be stuck again at 0%, maybe i mistook the unpacking binaries-screen for the installing screen. Anyway it's still at 0%...

I'll try a few more times and see if anyone else knows what to do.

Otherwise i guess i'll take it to a store or contact samsung or something even though it had root on it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Root voids warranty .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dapwnager:
Yeah i know but i'll have few other options... also it's been at 0% for around 2 hours now...

guess i'll just disconnect the cable soon and try with a different USB port and diferfent cable or something.

Well there's one positive thing, it still gets into emergency recovery mode.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dapwnager:
Hooray! it's now actually installing it and i didn't mistake it for downloading this time. I switched USB ports and now it works apparently.

Also something people that do this in the future should know: if you unplug the cable, it just gives you the error message saying that it couldn't find it which shouldn't cause any trouble. BUT only do this once it is stuck at 0%.

I was following the youtube video when the root failed. Now the device only shows the "Downloading" screen.

Edit: when rebooted the device shows: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.

some help please.

held VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER and get a "Warning !!

A custom OS can cause critical problems in phone and installed applications.

If you want to download up key.

Otherwise ,press the volume down key to cancel.

Volume UP: continue

Volume Down : Cancel (restart phone)

I hit Volume UP to continue an it takes me to the screen shown in the photos.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] crawrj:
So after you reboot it again is just immediately goes back to download mode on its own?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cytality:
Obviously you can't boot the phone, but does the bootloader work? Turn phone off... then hold VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER until you see Samsung logo then let go. If you have stock bootloader there should be an option to factory reset.

I believe the screen you're looking at in your pictures is specifically for receiving firmware, not the boot.

If everything I just said sounds retarded, I apologize. I iz noob.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] crawrj:
I am guessing but I don't think he has restarted after the failure. The screenshot he posted is of download mode, which you only need VDown + Power by the way makes it a little easier to get to.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cytality:
I thought "download mode" and "bootloader" were two difference things... you get download mode by doing VOL DOWN + POWER so the phone can be flashed directly. And you do VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER to start recovery. Am I wrong?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] crawrj:
Recovery is VUp + Power. For each one you can hold home and it will work but it isn't necessary. In fact you only need power if it is off. If the phone is rebooting or already powering up you just need to hold VUp or VDown.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nate600:
anyway to just factory reset this thing ?

I powered off the device by removing the battery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] crawrj:
We need more info. So when you power the phone on it just goes right to download mode by itself? If you can get into recovery VUp+Power you can do a factory reset. I don't think that will help but it might. If you are stuck in download mode, the phone won't boot up or factory reset doesn't work Odin a stock tar of the version you were on, MDC, MDL or MF9.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] GiantJay:
All you have to do to get to download mode is press volume down recovery is volume up, no power.

---------- Post added at 09:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 AM ----------

If you can get to either of those you are not bricked. Bricked means your phone does nothing at all, no recovery, download mode and won't boot to a ROM hence the word bricked, your phone is inoperable and is a brick.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] crawrj:
You need power if the phone is off. You don't have to hold them at the same time but if the phone is off you need VDown + Power or VUp + Power.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] GiantJay:
You are correct. I usually get to those when restarting, but ya if the phone is off you have to power it on. Lol. My bad.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nate600:
removed the battery. hit only the power button and get: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.

Then I tried a Hard reset: removed the battery for 15 sec. reinserted held the Vol UP, Home and power till it vibrated. Then kept holding the vol up and home. I get the same message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.

Write protection is normal for our phone. It shouldn't matter but download this version of Odin and try again. http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1168421&d=1341114315

Also make sure the MD5 on the tar you have matches to confirm that it isn't corrupt.

If it still doesn't work try installing kies on the computer and see if you can do the recover firmware or whatever it is called.

My friend's LG 4X HD has problems.

With one (and only that one) SIM com.android.phone crashes. I've tried other SIMs and they do just fine. I've also tried the problematic SIM on my GNex and it works like a charm.

I've tried looking at the logcat, turns out the problem is a IndexOutOfBoundsException caused by com.android.internal.telephony.gsm.LgeSIMRecords.run()

Here is a snapshot of the logcat: imageshack.com/a/img10/4903/9z4q.png

Phone is running 4.1.2

Baseband: L6260-MODEM-SIC-02.1233.00

Build: JZ054K

SW VERSION: P88020a-EUR-XX

Update: Hard Reset done, nothing changes. So I guess the problem lies in some system app.

Update 2: Even after downgrading to 4.0.3 it crashes.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] arnookie:
Some apps reinstalled from titanium can cause this problem. If you find that is the case just go into app settings and wipe data for restored apps. That normally solves these problems. If you don't want to full wipe again just delete app data for all apps and see how you go.:D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Paris6906:
The past week I have been away from WiFi and noticed that my phone will disconnect from the network and not reconnect. It seems to happen randomly. I am on the latest xenon HD for toro plus.

If I flash a different kernel would it help fix this? Any help is greatly appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Look at kmsg/dmesg and logcat to try and see whats happening, forward those logs to your ROM dev. Try to give something back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Paris6906:
I don't have access to a computer to do a log cat. Why I'm asking because I can down load stuff from WiFi to fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namtombout:
Flash and see

U.O.E.N.O
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
You are rooted... At least you can get kmsg.

At the very least, you need to work on the description of your issue - "I have been away from WiFi" doesn't tell me anything.

So, what are you having issues with? Mobile network stability?

Check your bootloader/radio, RIL/baseband combos (you should be on whatever latest bootloader version there is, RIL/baseband must match)

Does the kernel you use alter stock voltages? Make sure SR (smart reflex) is active and try again. If SR is already on, try to disable it, and work on the voltages yourself, although I'm not sure you will be able to troubleshoot all this with your current knowledge (estimated from the way you opened this thread). This is the only way kernel may be afecting anything here.

RIL/baseband are kernel independent.

It's not good principle if something's broken/not working already, to start flashing more stuff on top of it - look around you: does anyone on that ROM thread experiences the same issue recently, or is it just you?

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] pmrmx774:
Try powering off the tab. Then, plug into the PC for 24 hours. This should recharge it. If the battery is low enough, it may not charge properly on the Acer 12VDC, 1.5A charger. The USB will charge it. But, only around 3% per hour... and NOT while the tab is on.

If you are not using the Acer charger, that may be your problem. The connector is slightly different. and provides a 12VDC charging pin in addidtion the the rest.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ugslick:
So I've been running stock 2.2.2 till yesterday. This phone has 8gb of total storage, with 2 partitions, one of 1.48gb, where it installs all apps etc (usually) and another of about 5.22gb which used to be treated as an 'sd card', even though it was internal storage. It would install all data to the second partition, and I could use that for files and apps etc freely.

I just flashed a JB rom last night, and so far as I can tell everything is working fine, the only issue I have is that its not recognizing my 2nd partition as an SD card, its regarding it as internal storage, and it wont allow apps and stuff to install there. The phone keep prompting me to 'insert an sd card'. I would like to be able to use my phone to install my apps (swiftkey etc), and use my apps (gallery etc). I cant save any files, screenshots or anything, and any app that utilizies data saved on memory keeps saying 'there is no sd card'.

It might be worth noting that I flashed the rom and gapps from the sd card, and then left it in while installing all my apps again and everything else I needed on my phone before removing it..

If anyone could help me get the second partition recognized as the sd card, that would be great. If any other info is needed I would be happy to oblige. Thank you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Freakthis08:
IMO, you really should invest in an sd card, even a 2gb one. But I believe theres a file you can edit that will change the mount point. I'm not 100% sure if its the same for JB as GB.

Here's a quick link http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12271082/android-how-to-change-mount-points

or google up vold.fstab
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ugslick:
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! I figured it out eventually through experimenting.. I found this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1593615) and used that info to find the file, the file itself contains info on all the parameters so it wasnt too hard to manipulate the text accordingly.. The file system on JB seems a bit strange though.

Theres a storage folder, which contains the two storage devices labelled sdcard0 and sdcard1. The mount points are done through storage.

But there is also a mnt folder, with both emmc and sdcard in it. In addition the root also has an emmc and sdcard folder in it. I think the folder names (in both the root and the mnt subfolder) are shortcuts, and are directed through the <label> you apply to the string in the vold.fstab file (following these parameters: Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>). I think I swapped the label for the two partitions, switched the number after sdcard (though I think this is inconsequential). I left the partition numbers as is (so the external sd card was still auto, and the internal 'sd card' was partition 8), and I turned the internal storage into 'sd card'.

When I mount an external sd card though it shows up as internal storage. Is there a parameter to make that show up as 'external sd card'?

If anyone else hates this entire concept of the tabbed GMail inbox, you can easily disable it.

First of all I cannot for the life of me figure out why in the heck I'd want to check 3 different email inboxes? I got 3 emails this morning. 1 from a friend. 1 showing updates to my LinkedIN account. And 1 confirming a purchase I made on Amazon. These 3 emails, all relevant and useful to me, showed up in 3 different inboxes. Why on Earth would I want that? If I got 300 emails a day, then maybe, but shouldn't it be something I can choose to turn on rather than something I have to figure out how to disable?

Personally I'm getting tired of spending so much time figuring out how to disable Google's stuff so my phone works properly.

Anyway rant over. If you hate this as much as I do (and my wife does, and my mother does, and my friends do....) here is how to make it go away on your PC and your phone so you don't have to search the internet looking for answers.

On your computer, click the little gear in the upper right corner of the GMail screen.

Choose Configure Inbox

Uncheck everything on the list except Primary.

Now your GMail screen on your computer will look like it always has.

On your phone or tablet

Go to Settings.

Then pick your email account.

Then click Inbox Catagories.

Uncheck everything but Primary.

Note: This is how disabling the tabs is SUPPOSED to work. But you might find that the settings don't stick when you change them. If so try the following...

Change the settings on your desktop computer (or use the phone's browser to see the desktop gmail site)

Clear data and cache on the GMail app.

Sync gmail app. See if that imports the changes you made on your account on the desktop site and makes them stick.

If it doesn't (it worked on my phone, not on my tablet. So its 50/50) then uninstall and reinstall the gmail apk using the play store. If you can't do that from Play for some reason, here is a link to a download.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] khoaitaychienvn:
​

Just got the Gooseberry Leather Flip cover from Mercury for my S4. It looks premium, goes nicely with my other leather accessories. So if you're using an S4 and want to cover the whole plastic it has, this case is meant for you. It's too early to judge the leather quality but for some quick touch, it feels smoothly great in my hands. The sewing line is tidy and firm, just like other premium leather stuffs would have.

The inside plastic piece, which is to hold the S4, is well done with clean cuts with no ingot. It sticks to the leather case and fixes the device firmly.

My previous case was the Neo Hybrid which didnt add much bulk to the S4 and I'm so used to it. So switching to this case, I had to spend a day or two to get used to it. I would say it adds double bulk, compared to my previous case, when closed. Thus, I find myself carrying the phone more often than before.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cytality:
Ok, so I'm going to be making a ROM... shocker, right? Another scrub getting started with Android development. :o

I just have a few basic questions, mostly preference stuff, before I settle down for the long haul with my ROM. So here's a few generic questions, and if any DEV's or experienced users could answer I'd appreciate it.

1) MDL or MF9?! This question has been bugging me ALL day. I'm running MDL right now and have no issues with it, but I know MF9 has a few improvements over MDL. If MF9 is the "future" then should I flash stock MF9 and start developing for it instead of MDL?

2) IDE... Ok, so I'm a noob and am running Windows 8, lol. (I know, shoot me now.) Although I'm not opposed to downloading Ubuntu again and dual booting for DEV purposes, I'd prefer to stick to just Windows. So as far as Windows goes, what IDE should I be working with? I know that Eclipse is the running champion, but I also know that Android Studio is now officially backed by Google and is making some headway, although it's still in its early stages.

3) Stock or custom... So this question is more personal preference I suppose. Obviously I'm at no skill level to just be outright coding my own stuff. I need to start with a base and work up from there. The obvious answer to this is to copy someone else's ROM and build it my way. That way I can see how other people develop and can learn from them. But, I also know there's a benefit in starting fresh from stock, primarily so you don't have to deal with other people's bugs. Then I can add my own mods and code as I want. So.. as a noob, should I start with stock or build off of someone else's work?

Thanks for the responses ;)
