Phone: rooted EL29 (I think)

Here is the story:

Son was playing with the phone and when he handed it to me it was stuck on the Samsung splash screen.

Took battery out and retried...still stuck(repeated a couple times).

Checked to see if i could get into DL mode (Power +volume down) and it worked. (accidently pressed volume up and took battery out when it said "do not turn off target")

Power cycled and still got stuck on splash screen.

Read something about holding down both VOL buttons and the power button. Tried this and the BLUE LED lit up and nothing happened.

Now all I can do is get the BLUE LED to come on.

Questions:

Am I screwed?

Is there a way I can try to get into DL mode?

Cheers :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Pull battery. Wait a few minutes. While you are waiting, hold the power button with no battery inside. Put battery back in. Try to get to download mode again. If you get a blue led again at this point please tell me is it blinking blue light or a solid blue light.

Also you might want to look for a usb jig from ebay or amazon. It will boot into download mode as soon as you plug it in to your usb port.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarywoody:
No luck. It is a solid blue light, but it will occasionally blink when I am trying to get into DL mode.

Just ordered a jig from ebay. Not so much worried about the phone as i am some pictures and videos. Trying to hold out until next month to buy a new phone :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Sorry to tell you...but solid blue light is a brick. Pics and vids might be lost. I have never bricked a phone. I know there are people who can jtag it for you. Such as mobiletechvideos. But I am unsure if anything stored on the sd would survive a reflash. (If the brick can even be recovered from. Some hard bricks wont even come back with jtag).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
EMMC failure...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarywoody:
OK. Does this mean the jig probably won't work?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
It may get you to DL mode, but I can bet that you won't be able to complete a flash.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarywoody:
Alright. Guess I will give it a try and report back. Thanks for the help :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
Goodluck.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fran6ng:
Just upgraded to the latest patch. However I don't really know how to use the multiuser function.

1. For the new user it seems it requires me to download the same app that's installed in the user account. So it takes twice the memory to store it?

2. I'm trying to figure out the external storage place for the new user account. I just don't have the access to the external storage folder from the new user account on es file manager.

Anyone have any idea on this?

Many thanks.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technaudio:
It doesn't download the whole app, think it just pits an icon on the other users app drawer.

Try this -

Download a large game 100+ mb to first user account, it'll take a while because it's 100mb, once it installed, go to 2nd user, and go to market and download same game, installs in seconds!

And i just want to root it so i use P3100_CWM-6.0.2.7_SUPERSU-0.99_BUSYBOX-1.20.tar.md5

I flash it using ODIN via pc

Everything works fine except

1. v4.1.3 become 4.1.2

2. One battery(root) when i lock my phone it turn to black and when i unlock it there is no response..so i nee to reboot it again(so i just uninstall it)

3.when i try to update it via OTA..the responce is device modified

I use triangle away and it works also fine except

1.when updating OTA i take 12 hours checking for update and after 12 hours the responce is always checking for update..i just quit updating

My question is will i be able to recieve OTA update again?

Im stuck on 4.1.2 while my device before is 4.1.3?

Ps. Can someone provide me a flashable 4.1.3 using ODIN pc...

Thank you
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodyF86:
Edit: err wait sorry those were for p3113, the p3100 should boot 6.0.2.7.

So, you flash recovery 6.0.2.7 and it won't boot into recovery after you flash with Odin?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mj_malabed:
Done flashing 6.0.2.7 OTA update still takes long time and same as checking for update for long period of time so i stop quit updating
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skazzy3:
There was never 4.1.3. And if there was root cannot "downgrade" it. And you dont need to use OTA updates. Just look on samsung-updates.com and check for updates.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mj_malabed:
I dont know but i think before i flash that one its 4.1.3 gt-p3100 from hongkong
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skazzy3:
Well, you saw wrong.

No 4.1.3 here.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mythi:

Remember if you want to download any firmware you must be member of SamMobile. Just sing up and download.

Download file is in zip archive you must extract the folder in this folder you have something like xxxxxx.tar.md5 use this firmware to flash.

Hi All,

Ive been trying to root and install cm10.1 on my phone. however ive tried a number of rooting methods and it still wont work. this is what i get when i enter bootloader

ATTACH]2184987[/ATTACH]

What shall i do?
[HTC One X] Tigerlight:
You need to unlock the bootloader before anything else at HTCDev. It's been relocked.
[HTC One X] musty9:
and all should be ok after that?
[HTC One X] sinkster:
Once your bootloader is unlocked it should be ready to flash. As usual, read the thread op fully and make sure you understand the process.
[HTC One X] chaun1308:
Remember to flash a custom recovery too .

Sent from my HTC One X ( Android Revolution HD )
[HTC One X] bihslk:
Unlock the bootloader

Flash recovery CWM or TWRP

Flash boot.img from cm10 rar

Flash cm10.1 then reboot.

If you dont flash boot.img you will get bootloop

Flash the boot.img from the nandroid backup folder, and perform a full wipe before restoring the nandroid

On the sdcard in the backup folder either TWRP or Clockworkmod folder

what sorta battery life do you guys get? Mine's about 3-4 hours (less if i use BT and WLAN!)

admitedly i didnt leave it charging for the full 18 odd hours 1st time round, so i bought another battery (needed a spare anyway) and made sure it was charged up 100% correctly...

its giving me exactly the same battlife!

obviously turning it off/standby itll last ages, but its crap when using the PDA!

am i doing something wrong?

3-4 hours is especially bad though.. mine will last a day or maybe a day and a half depending on use, but no where near as good as my old xda II
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jim galbally:
i got 2 hours out of it yesterday night...

i turned on bluetooth and wifi, and watched it die (just left it on the desk n pressed the screen every now and then)

now surely 2 hours cant be right? i'm having to leave it plugged into the pc all day at work AND carry a spare battery!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] kevinnugent:
Mine seems just OK. I took it off the charger last night at around 10pm and by 5.30 this afternoon the battery was down to 59%. That's with several calls made -no wifi - about 30 mins GPRS browsing - but BT was on all the time.

I'm switching BT off until I need it, and seeing if that makes any difference.

Kevin
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] kevinnugent:
Wifi will suck the life out of it, Jim. Have you been through all the usual suspects like beaming etc?

Kevin
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] omniwolf:
wow jim thats really bad.. have you tried discharching it completely, then leaving it on the charger for about 12 hours, and doing that a couple of times? sometimes that improves battery life.

i think i might try the worst case scenario you did and see how long mine lasts

kevin.. that sounds half decent.. especially with BT on the whole time. sounds like you're one of the lucky ones :)

I am the sort to cover all bases so please do not get me wrong.

Bro have you configured your Xda IIi backlight and power to go on standby mode yet?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] omniwolf:
tried it with mine, had bluetooth on (not connected to anything tho), wifi on (not connected to anything, but it was finding wireless networks every 10 secs or so and kept popping up that do you want to connect bubble), recieve incoming beams was ticked, gprs was connected and it was getting used a couple times each hour to sync my email, and i probably received about 4 phone calls and made one or two. my cpu was set to standard (not turbo)

mine lasted for 4 hours at this rate, so a fair bit better than yours.. unless you were actually using bluetooth and/or wireless
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jim galbally:
its now as low as hours!!!!

even with every power saving thing on possible, i can only push it to 3!!!!

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] leonzhou:
4 hrs is not normal either, usually my 2i can last for 8 hrs (not counting stand by of course). yesterday it suddently ran out of battery within 5 hrs and really had me worried for a while. Than I found out it was because I adjusted the backlight brightness to very high. It seems the LCD backlight has a major effort of consuming battery power.

Tricks summed up from other topics:

* Darken your On Barrery backlight brightness (Start-Settings-System-Backlight-Brightness)

* Shorten your On battery backlight remain time (Start-Settings-System-Backlight-Battery Power)

* Set your CPU mode to standard (Start-Settings-System-Power-Processor)

* Close incoming beam monitoring (Start-Settings-Connections-Beam)

* Try you best not to connect any network (Bluetooth, GPRS, WLAN...) :?

* Put less item on your today screen

* Some software has update or refresh service running on background, try to increase their interval:

[list:8501145cfd]- OmegaOne BatteryPack has a default setting of 30 sec update interval, and a network activity monitor. All can be disabled in today item's options.

- Marsware WeatherPanel has a default setting of 30 min update interval

- All alike stuff you can think of ...

* Applications remain in memory when you click "X", shut them down if not using anymore. (Start-Setting-System-Memory-Running Programs)

- Some apps have convenience tool to do this, such as OmegaOne BatteryPack, or O2Plus.

Hi Noodleman , i dont suppose you could give us more info on what to expect could you ?

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Noodleman:
ive only got my hands on it because o2 are keeping me sweet whilst i ponder about a large order :lol:

From what ive been told, its basicly got a LOT of bug fix's in it (not that i found many bugs with the older version :roll: )

The blackberry client (which may be released as a seperate update) if at all.

battery issue fix, few voice fix's etc..
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] PC_Arcade:
That's a bit ominous...What's your source that says blackberry might not get released?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Noodleman:
well...

The blackberry client has been a week away from release for about 2 months. ive now been informed by o2's developers that its going to be at least another month.

And with the release of the new device in a a few months which has the facility for exchange 2k3 push/pull technology, the BB client will be redundent....

So why release it at all for an old device.

I just get the feeling it will get dropped.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] PC_Arcade:
If that does happen o2 will have a lot of pissed off customers, in fact if needs be I'll get trading standards involved if they don't release it in order to get my phone refunded as it's a selling point listed on their website and one which was an important decision to go for that particular phone.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Noodleman:
just to stress a point..

It is just my view/opinion that it MIGHT not get released. I have no facts etc to back it up...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] PC_Arcade:
I appreciate that, If it did happen I'd be suprised though, BB is a big feature to not enable and it's late enough as it is.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Noodleman:
I agree..

Which is why i have a feeling it might get swept under the carpet. Hell, if i was working on it, i would want to drop it and move on to other stuff :lol:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] PC_Arcade:
I meant I'd be suprised if it DIDN'T get released it would hurt o2 in corporate sales if it didn't get released at all.

I'd certainly use it for a free upgrade to the Universal if they haven't released it by then and I'd get Trading Standards involved to do it if I had to :lol:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] kevinnugent:
Hey Noodleman, you still haven't said where you are from. An update for the UK IIi doesn't do us guys in Australia any good! :)

When's the update due in Asia? When I call O2 Customer Support, I can't even get them to admit what software is provided on the IIi - and it's listed on their web page!!!! :evil: grrrr...... I hate dealing with Customer Service people who know nothing and won't find out.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjohnman:
Good day to you ladies and gentlemen. I will get straight to the point:

I recently purchased a Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 (GT-P5210) in China, and it comes with no Google Play.

I have tried installing the apks for Google Services Framework and Google Play, but as soon as I try to add my Google account (as requested by Google Play on first run), I get the "Unable to establish a reliable connection" to Google servers error. If I try to create an account from the settings panel, the settings program stops working. Google Services Framework also likes to crash seemingly at random.

I have tried getting a western firmware into it, but since I do not have a Windows box, and I haven't been able to get Odin to work on Virtual Box, no such luck. Heimdall doesn't seem to properly communicate with the tablet. Is there a way to do "Odin work" with adb and company?

So that's two questions, but what I would really like to ask is: what are my options? I just want my Google Play account on this beautiful tablet.

On a related note, how is the work on rooting the GT-P5210 coming along? Is there anything I can do to help? I have experience as a developer in general (not Android specific though), and I would be glad to help.

Thank you all for reading through this post :cowboy:
