I need more help.

I had the same problem with Kavin, and I did as you suggested above, but I have some issues.

1. Why "Wipe the SD card (format FAT). Stick the SD card back into the pda and soft reset, then cradle it."? I could get into the bootloader, the SD now no use to write anything b/c my wallaby doesn't read it for bootloader re-write.

2. Once I type 'pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0', the DOS command says 'pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0 is not reconized as... patch file" What I should I do next?

3. I tried you suggestion on the threat http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=104778&highlight=#104778. BUT it won't help at all. I can write the Bootloader to the SD card, once i insert it to XDA. it says the card need to format. then I choose NO, but then I tried enter the bootloader agian, my XDA go directly to the normal screen.

Pls give us the instruction in more details if you don't mind. Tks
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] orateam:
I've never done this before, but it appears you typed in your dos box incorrectly.

you should type this :

pnewbootloader_40116 bl515.nb0

which is the executable : pnewbootloader

followed by the bootfile : bl515.nb0

you typed : pnewbootloader_bl515.nb0

which would be an invalid filename.

Remove the underscore after pnewbootlader
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Danny123173:
First of all I would like to say this is my first post and I am feeling very optimistic as I have seen all the great things you guys have done over here! I understand in order to solve my problem I will have to be as detailed as I can, but please bare with me as I am a noob to this stuff and seem to have run into some trouble :(

Okay so I got a new S3 Last week and wanted to try it out on some new custom roms, I flashed it to CM 10.1 nightly using the roms downloaded via GooManager, all was fine and I had no problems until i flashed to a newer version of the nightly build and lost my signal, it always said Emergency calls only.

This happened to me once before but I solved it by flashing a modem file via Odin, since then I had to preform full system reset as I was considering selling my phone, it didn't come to that and now I am back to square one and once again I have no signal.

I have tried flashing the same modem file as I did before with no effect this time round :(

I have since tried many different modems and completely forgot which one has worked in the past. I have no back up files what so ever so I need to know what it is that is causing it not to get a signal. Could it be the kernel I am using? or is there a pacific modem for my ROM which I need.

I understand this is my own fault and stupidity, you guys are my last hope, I have also tried stock firmware which also has no signal.

It is an international i9300 with UK T-Mobile.

Please help me save my phone! :(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
I hope you didn't flash a Tmobiles modem, because international gs3 and SGH-T999 aren't similar I believe other than looking the same. And more than likely you've lost your IMEI. Please goto settings and check your IMEI. Please do not post it, just verify if it's 0 or a 16 digit string.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Welcome to the forum! Albeit not quite the right one.

You need to post this in the international forum. This is for the US/Canadian models only. They are very different from yours, and not many people here will know much about it.

Do not flash anything you find here! It is highly likely to brick your phone. If you flashed our modems. Consider yourself lucky and now you know why it isn't working. Check with the guys in the other forum for your next step though.

I wish you luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
As stated, incorrect forum. I'd give you the proper link if I was at a computer. But thank you for the detailed panic free post. It's seriously appreciated.

You're going to end up having to flash the modem that's for your phone, or maybe Odin stock.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Danny123173:
You are right I have no imie number just a 16 digit string :/ sorry guys for posting in the wrong arearly next time I will make sure I will post correctly. :)

I am strating to get concerned, is this an easy fix? I dont mind wiping any data or using a certain Rom I just don't know which modem to use, some modems show me my bars but it still wont get any service. This one currently just shows a circle and cross icon with no bars at all. I am running stock. :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Danny123173:
Also if someone could post a link to the correct forum so I know where to head that would be great. Thanks for the help guys!! :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Danny123173:
Solved! Thanks again guys!!

I apologise thank you for the link, if I run into anymore trouble I will post to the correct section. I am glad to inform you I have solved the issue. It turns out I installed a bad modem which actually changes the file type of type of the efs folder. Causing roms to not reading it properly.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2377731

I fixed the issue by installing a stock firmware found on this post...

http://50.23.216.69-static.reverse.softlayer.com/showthread.php?t=1646610

This firmware carries a modem file which can read the modified efs folder, and in result restoring my IMEI Number and signal even after I flashed the rom to CM 10.1.

I hope some one else can stumble on to this and it helps them, please be aware though I have an intervention Galaxy s3 and this may not work in the states or other parts of the world.

Thanks again massive help, its people like you that make this the best source of information on the internet!

Once again really sorry about posting in the wrong forums, I will try not let it happen again in the future!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
Congrats, I'm glad you rectified the problem! Remember for next time, when you're not able to access data or you're stuck at 2G that your IMEI has most likely went! For future reference, I recommend making an EFS backup. We've all been there before and we know the scare!

And btw, welcome to XDA, enjoy the stay lol.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Danny123173:
Yeah I have double backed up and thanks for the tip I will keep that in mind ;) thanks again dude! :)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Ra2fet:
Yesterday I flashed S4 Revolution v8.0 [ROM][4.3 MJ9] then I lost my signal and imei and the baseband version is empty although I wipe my cash and data before flashing this rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I don't think that's a Rom we have for our device, unless I overlooked it.

Googled it and came up as an I9300 Rom. If this is what you flashed consider yourself extraordinarily lucky it's not hard bricked!

Odin flash the firmware for your model only! Hopefully that fixes it.....

And NEVER flash a Rom not for your model device.

Hello,

First of all thank you for the tutorials. I successfully set up a build environment and made a test build than I followed the CWM Recovery porting guide. Everything fine, the recovery starts up, and I even made a test backup/restore process and seems like everything working fine. But the screen size just not fit the device. It's about a quarter of the screen size and the colors also not show properly. By the way it's a Chinese 10" tablet. Can anyone help to resolve my issue to fit the CWM to the screen size?

By the way I have experienced same (and more) problems with the only recovery builder tool

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

I read a lot of threads but I'm really tuck...

When I power on my Acer Iconia A500, I have this error message : "Secure boot: image LNX checksum fail!"

According to my research, the issue is the bootloader. So I want to update (change) this.

When I power on my tablet in recovery mod I don't have this error. My recovery it's TWRP v2.4.4.0 (Team Win Recovery Project).

I have not my CPUID, so I downloaded Afterota and install the official driver Acer.

But when I plug my tablet, second step "Usb Connection" I have this issue : ERROR - connect usb cable and enable usb debugging"

But I can't enable usb debugging because my ROM is fail...

I hope somebody can help me because I have no idea :(

Depends what rom you were running when all this started....

enter recovery mode advanced menu and choose fix checksums!

Again, this depends on the rom u had...

If you do have recovery mode then a) go in and format data and cache,

b) flash custom ics/jb rom....

c) It will show you your cpuid....

You can only use afterota IF your rom was a stock ics updated via OTA...was yours????
[Acer Iconia A500] tibeoh:
Thank you for your answers.

But now I have any access to my recovery mode...

I have the same error: "Secure boot: image SOS checksum fail!"

[Q] Regarding " [RECOVERY][ROOT] Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195)" new ODIN version

Hi,

since there is the "you must be bigger than 10 posts to submit here" barrier in the original "[RECOVERY][ROOT] Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195)" thread, I have to ask it here:

Arco just updated the ODIN to 3.09 with the remark, that now it flashes properly.

What does that mean for someone like me that flashed with the previous version? Do I have to/should reflash?

How is the reflash done? Do I just redo the procedure or do I have to remove anything before?

Thanks

Christian
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arco68:
If you used the previous Odin version to flash a stock rom, check that the baseband version in about phone matches the rom version you downloaded. For example if you downloaded MG4 and flashed over MF5, baseband should be MG4 and not MF5.

If your question was related to flashing recovery and rootkit, then that's not a problem as previous Odin flashed that correctly.

3) Rename the bmp file to "splash".

4) Put it in the splash creater folder and run the file name "RUN THIS ONE" follow the instructions

5) select convert bmp to img option .

6)and if it asks ("WOULD YOU LIKE TO FLASH YOUR NEW SPLASH SCREEN?")

choose "NO".

7) close the cmd

8) Being in the folder press Ctrl + Shift and then right click u will see and additional option like ("Open command prompt here ") select it . works in win7 only i havent tried in xp though.

Given that you've unlocked your boot loader, you could try flashing one of the custom kernels from the development section. Some (if not all) will come with a recovery pre-installed so you shouldn't need to do anything else.
