Can you try to get into download mode without putting the battery in. Just hold the volume buttons and connect it to the cable and see if it goes to download mode. If it does then put battery in. Be careful.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] siddharta1979:
No luck....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MeteorStorm101:
That sucks. :/ Download mode is the only way to fix these kinds of problems. I dont see why you wouldn't be able to get into there. Try looking in other forums to see if it can help you.

I can't believe it... I realize water is lethal to these devices, but that was not much water at all...

I guess I can start looking for a new one. Suggested phones? Nexus 4?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] MeteorStorm101:
That phone seems nice. As long as you can afford it then it would be great. Just make sure it doesn't contact wit water. Even doe it my seem like tht is a great phone to chose phones arent made to be water proof at this point
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] siddharta1979:
Unfortunately I can't really afford it, but now it's hard to go back to a dumb phone. At the same time I'm pissed at how fragile these things are..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BeatnikBandit:
Sadly i have nothing to add to this except i have this exact same problem happening to me right now. Now This is the second phone ive ever rooted so you know I'm a newb their. So Can someone shoot me in the direction of stock tar files and what Odin to use.

I believe that is what i need to do yes?

use Odin to (IDK) inject root access with some other programs needed to use custom roms backups etc, also this is doe using a specific file as this is the part of the process where most phones are bricked?

So sorry but for those following this thread I have searched but IDK the best way to go as they change and i want the latest. As when i first rooted this phone I first tried Superoneclick as it was said to be so easy. Well SOC froze on step 3 i think and never finished once so i ended up doing it with Odin which is the way i did it with my SG3 (for some reason way easier to use maybe more devs??) So i am trying ti pimp my mothers phone LOL She is in her 60s but she knows what shes doing lol. Anyway she hated her phone and i told her all she had to do was root it and load a new ROM and your phone will look and act newer. (wanting to save mom money too) This is my situation.

If you read all that i am asking what Odin version i need or better where to get it. Same with the flash file. IDK if any ICS or JB rooted flash files are made or if its better to use stock 2.3.6 (i think) whichever way results in easiest upgrading and how it should be done. I thank you a lot. I am sorry for the thread hijack but i thought it would be better one post here instead another thread (i hope to have found it from you or on my own before that) like i said i search but i cant find i know its their i found it before so idk.

I do know to thank you again and sorry again for the hijack

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] greycobalt:
I've been using my S4 a week and a half, and I've loved it, and been pleasantly surprised with it's battery life. However, yesterday and today the life took a sharp turn for the worse, and drained to half battery without any use by the middle of the day. I use GSAM, but the logs are gibberish to me, so I was wondering if anyone here could tell me what's going on. Yesterday, the Android OS Kernel was the main culprit, today the Bluetooth Share is.

I was going to post them as plain text, but they're pretty long, so I'll attach them. If someone wants me to post them plainly, let me know. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Guys,

Please clarify this for me, is dual recording a hardware limitation for our device or is it just software limitation?

I'm really frustraded that i didn't find any phone that had this feature ported, or any 3d party software in play store for that matter which leds me to believe that this is a hardware limitation for phones that were not launched with this feature.

Would really love to have this cool feature.

is it a hardware faut or software

[LG Optimus G (International)] patalao:
that`s a software/firmware limitation

Lg only released that feature on LG G Pro after the S4 from samsung was released

Let`s hope in a future update(if there will be one) LG implement it on G

Wrong. Optimus g pro got it first. There was even a silly little sue from LG.

By using the rom you agree with the above terms!

Instructions:

Download firmware

Download Odin 3.07

Boot into download. (either hold power and volume down or do adb reboot download)

Click on PDA and then find Pre_Rooted_P5210XXUAMG6_P5210OXXAMG3.tar.md5

MAKE SURE RE-PARTITION IS NOT CHECKED!!! You will have an instant brick! You have been warned.

Click start and wait.

once done it will reboot into (stock) recovery and finish installing.

Once done and booted just open SuperSU and update the binary. Not by CWM but the other.

Done!! :D

I do not have a Tab 3 10.1, so let me know if this works please. I'll post a untouched copy of the firmware also.

Looks like it's still not working SU is in xbin but I'm not able to get super user access at all. Just thinking out loud here and I'm not sure if this is a possibililty or not but was the SU you used an updated version with x86 support? The reason I'm thinking that may be the problem is that when I try to run SU in Terminal I'm getting a Segmentation fault error.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Zidkijah:
I'm also thinking that when I ./simg2img system.img newsys.img there was an issue...... because the new image blew up to 2.5Gigs.......... Might try a different firmware this time................ I also just downloaded the updated su package. There are some other files in this tarball that has something to do with the update....... still digging ;)

------------------------------------------------------ Update---------------------------------------------------------------------

I found /lib/arm digging around......... That leads me to believe that the su and Superuser.apk need to be built by the android arm tool-chain, I downloaded the most up to date binary and apk ....... Post a test link once uploaded.....
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Angel_666:
I tried to inject 4 different types of SU binary, but no luck - all programs telling that device rooted, but no write access to system folder. Simg2img works without any errors for me.

Hi, If I reinstall Official Firmware will Tab go back to store returnable state? On the download mode screen says

current binary: samsung official

system status: official

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] ShadowDice9100:
Yes and no..... if they dont look to far into the tab (which they usualy dont then you will be ok) if you happen to have a techie smart guy checking it and he takes it into download mode he will notice the flash counter has 1 trigger meaning you played around with the system.. but thats less then 1% chance of happening.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] bespecter:
Where can I see flash counter? There is no flash counter I see in download mode.

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Angel_666:
There is some small problems here. All zip update packages will NOT work on Samsung stock 3e recovery (across only digitally signed by samsung). That's why we unpack sys image every time and inject SU manualy. But thanks for BIN's!

The things that we need to do MANUALY to get SU works:

1. Inject apk and bin in their respective folders in sys image.

2.Create symlinks for SU binary and busybox

3.Fix the permissions, as it writen in update script.

P.S. I hope you all understood, that after this rooting metod, your device will have "CUSTOM" status, and you can't recieve OTA updates anymore?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Omar-Avelar:

I want to help

Hey guys,

I have a Tab3 10.1 as well. I would love to help with the ROM rooting. Could any of you please give me a list of shell commands that help unpack and repack the rom. So from a stock .tar.md5 ROM I end up with another modified .tar.md5 file. I already have Ubuntu 11 and a Windows machine set up. Already downloaded Andro kernel sources from git, compiled simg2img and ext4 utils from source ... I have a fairly good knowledge of Linux. I just need the overall process how to unpack and repack the rom. I haven't found any good tutorials. (There are some on XDA but I only need the list of shell commands to see the whole process, I figure out the rest ... hopefully :) Than I can experiment with my Tab 3 10.1 as well. Hope I can help with the rooting of this device.

Thank you so much.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Zidkijah:
Ok, So looking at everything here. I think I have it all in order, BUT before I package it all up. I have one question.

The last pack I bundled up with the META-INF in the root of the tarball, with the it pointing to the wrong block device.(didn't seem to hurt anything, cause that location doesn't exist.) Now I have changed it to point to the right block device.

/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 /system ext4 ro,relatime,errors=panic,data=ordered 0 0

How will Odin deal with this? How can I guarantee that Odin will pay any attention to it?

I guess I'll try throwing it into the root of the tarball and give it a try, I've injected the su, Superuser.apk, and busybox to there respective locations, and given them the proper perm's. The scripts should do there job at the time of the flash and create the symlinks needed........... Correct?

I guess I'll roll one up and get it posted. :fingers-crossed:
