N910c sensors not working!

Got a N910c recently and it's perfect condition- camera, fingerprint all OK but none of the sensors work- rotation, gyro, proximity, heart rate sensor and even GPS (though it detects the sensor). Can ALL of the sensors have failed at the same time? Or is it more likely that something controlling the sensors has failed? Checking the firmware (*#0#) returns a fail. One thing I noted is that the ncu firmware version is BR010 whilst bin firmware version is BR0115102300. I thought they had to be the same??? Update firmware option is not available (*#2663#). Could this be a software issue??? I am now desperate as I can do no more. If it's a new mother board I might as well sell it for spares! Tried everything I have seen online but nothing worked. Any help please???

Why not trying to flash another firmware with Odin?

Maybe that can fix the issue, because all sensors failure doesn't make any sense and it's weird!!
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] acemccloud1:
Greetings Folks,

I know this question has been asked before, and I did read a lot of threads on this topic, but ended up getting confused with terms like ADB shell, root shell, emulator etc :confused: . So, here I am, asking for help from you guys. I will try to explain what I am trying to achieve, and hope you will point me in the right direction.

I have a ROOTED GT i9082 (firmware details in screenshot). I have backed up my phone using CWM backup mode (.tar format), and I see that the backup folder contains a lot of different kind of files (like .tar, .img and .tar.a extensions). Please see the attached screenshot for the list. Now, I want to create just one single ODIN flashable file (.tar or .tar.md5) from all these files. The reason for this, is if I decide to try and install some stock not-rooted ROM, and lose the CWM, then restoring back to my old rooted ROM could be a hassle. But if I have a backup ODIN flashable file of my current rooted ROM, then I can straight-away flash my backed-up .tar file from ODIN and restore my phone back to my custom ROM.

I have ODIN and the ADB drivers installed on my laptop, just don't know how to create one single ODIN flashable .tar file from all the various files created by the CWM backup. Any help/advice would be appreciated!!! Cheers!!!
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] muntinlupa:
If those things confuse you then the more you will get confused if we tell you about LINUX COMMAND LINE.

What I know is that there is nobody yet that can do the things you are asking. There is a tutorial on XDA about extracting files from the tar.md5 ODIN flashable file then "cooking" a custom rom from those files.This can also be done with the files from a NANDROID backup. I do not know of a way to do the reverse of that. That is make an ODIN flashable file from those "modded" files. I am sure there is a way but I think it is beyond the means of us non programmers/developers.

Furthermore, it is easier to restore CWM in case you lose, after that restore any NANDROID backup as long as they are on the external sd card.

If you want to learn try THIS
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] acemccloud1:
Thanks for your response @ muntinlupa

Let me explain what I wish to do, and then maybe you can help me understand this better.

I wish to upgrade my i9082 to 4.2.2, but most of the ROMs available on XDA need me to already be on 4.2.2 leaked ROM. I tried a few of the leaked 4.2.2 which were fine with me being on 4.1.2. After flashing the initial 4.2.2 ROM, I was able to boot up successfully, but after that, when I tried to install Balli's GENNXT XUBMGA 4.2.2 ROM, my phone went into boot loop. So I have decided to try the Samsung official 4.2.2 ROM (released in Germany probably), and then try installing Balli's ROM. But the problem is that the official ROM needs to be flashed via ODIN, and will not be rooted. So I fear that after flashing the official 4.2.2 ROM, I might lose my CWM, thereby rendering my restore ability useless, even though I have my CWM backups for my current ROM (Balli's 4.1.2 rooted ROM).

So, my queries are as follows:-

1) If I flash the official 4.2.2 ROM, will I lose my CWM? If yes, is there any way I can flash and install the CWM again with ODIN, with the official 4.2.2 unrooted ROM still installed?

2) Does flashing CWM via ODIN require root or unlocked bootloader?

3) If I can install CWM with the official 4.2.2 unrooted ROM installed on my phone, will I be able to boot into recovery and restore my backed up rooted Balli's 4.1.2 ROM?

So basically, I want to try the 4.2.2 ROM, but want to be able to revert my phone back to 4.1.2 in case I don't like it.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] muntinlupa:
Everything you need to know is HERE. Installing balliboxer rom needs a wipe after flashing or else you will get bootloop.

And I have done this 2 X. I am back to 4.1.2 now because I want to utilize the external2internal app.

And if you wan to get back to nandroid backup of your 4.1.2 then flash any stock 4.1.2 then install CWM and do a restore from CWM. Very easy for me.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jetvis37:
Absolutely right [MENTION=4632098]muntinlupa[/MENTION]

[MENTION=4741439]acemccloud1[/MENTION]

Go easy man...nothing to worry...

First flash leaked or official 4.2.2 through odin..yes u will lose cwm...so flash cwm through odin...same way as u flashed on 4.1.2...boot in to cwm...wipe data factory reset...wipe cache n dalvik cache...now flash GENNXT 4.2.2...after flashing wipe cache n dalvik cache...reboot..

now u r on ballis GENNXT 4.2.2

Now if u want to revert back..(4.1.2 restore)

Flash stock 4.1.2 through odin (necessary as u can't restore ur 4.1.2 backup on 4.2.2)...flash cwm through odin...restore ur 4.1.2 backup with cwm....

Remember...before doing factory reset if ur backup file is in internal sd then just move it on external sd>clockworkmod>backup>ur file...n do not rename ur backup file...u may get md5 mismatch error...happy flashing....:D:thumbup:

Hiya,

Using the international i9505 LTE, I tried flashing faux's kernel today, and everything appeared to be working. I also then flashed the xposed framework/some modules. Afterwards, I realised my wifi wasn't working anymore, and disabling the xposed framework didn't help. I also tried flashing the ausdim kernel which didn't work, as well as flashing my modem file, and the apparent wifi fix files multiple times, none of which solved the problem.

I have a nandroid backup, but would rather not restore it atm as it was made a while ago and I don't want to restore all the apps and stuff, so does anyone have any idea how to go about solving this problem?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh0stR1pp3r:
Basically yesterday I had the same problem, flash after flash didn't help. Can tell you exactly, what I did:

Found factory version of my firmware in my region (SEB Baltics for me, MGA). Then I reinstalled TWRP recovery through ODIN, wiped everything I could, after that flashed stock firmware 2 times consecutively (no reboot in odin, reboot manually after first flash and flash again).

After that everything went fine, and Wi-Fi started working again. MH1 custom ROM right now, going ok.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nwsk:
Googling seems to suggest having to reflash stuff multiple times (I've seen someone say they flashed their stock rom 11 times wtf), and there doesn't seem to be any set procedure that gets the flash to work... Did you also flash multiple times before this last run worked? Perhaps you just got lucky and it worked the last time? (I assume no one tries to bork their wifi and test if their last routine works again for them).

I'm asking mainly because I don't want to go through the hassle of reflashing the entire rom again; would it be correct to say that wifi is just contained in the modem/radio file, and I should try spam flashing that?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
No. WiFi drivers are in the kernel, not the modem. If you were going to flash anything, you'd flash a kernel/rom.

No, I did flash it 2 times straight away. Flashing correct modem didnt help me, dunno why.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nwsk:
Well, finally got around to reflashing stock as Gh0stR1pp3r suggested, which worked. Thanks :)

Nandroid, kernel flashing, and modem flashing all didn't work. No clue why. I flashed the ausdim kernel again and it worked this time around, so it's just weird I guess? :S

And unfortunately I seem to have messed up the titanium backup somehow, I can't seem to find any of the stuff I thought I backed up :( Oh well

[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Am I the only one that this is happening to? I've searched each thread for the Roms I've used and didn't see anything about it. I know it's listed as a cm10.2 bug but I don't see it listed as one for cm10.1 and I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere. This happens on the stock kernel, on .torrented's kernel, and on crpalmers kernel and I've tried every governor and I/o scheduler. Every time I try to get a last_kmesg it comes up blank. Is there something about my phone that's different than anyone else's? I haven't seen anyone report this issue.
[HTC Droid DNA] _phoey:
What ROM are you running? Pre-4.3, I was running root-box, and I also ran carbon (4.2) for a while. I never have random reboots. Now I'm on Carbon 4.3 and I still don't have random reboots.

[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
I'm running root box, which so far has the least random reboots of any rom. Before this I was running uxylon, and I've also used carbon, revolt, cm10.1, and PAC.

There doesn't seem to be any pattern so I don't think it's an app that's doing it. What I really really don't understand is why I can't get a last_kmesg.
[HTC Droid DNA] pio_masaki:
I haven't had a single random reboot with the exception of MoKee and that odd rotation bug the first build had, on any AOSP ROM. Plenty on sense based and the GPE ROM, never on AOSP, though.

Damn. I'm not really sure what to do. Perhaps I have a hardware issue or something. Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this? I'm honestly considering getting a different phone but I love my DNA.

EDIT: I think there was a problem with trying to use lumberjack to get the last_kmesg, I just pulled it from /proc. I've done it using terminal before and gotten a blank file though. Anyway this one has plenty of content, perhaps someone can make sense of it?

As using cocore on cm will cause bootloops. So I don't think you can flash it with ukf in cm. Maybe you can but it would be unwise to do so. Plus, it's easier to flash it in recovery.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] HalibutMcGaffigan:
Hiya, was looking for software and stuff for the SPV M500, and found all this stuff about BigStorage, so here I am.

All seems fairly straight forward, but I can't seem to find any working links to the WWE_1.11.zip BigStorage ROM (the ftp doesn't connect, and all other links both here and elsewhere seem unavailable or corrupt). Does anyone know where I can obtain this file, please?

Also, before I flash this 'phone, how do I get the original CABs on my PC/SD card, to reinstall the applications I need to put back on, and discard the usual Orange bloaters that I don't need?

Thanks in advance.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] vijay555:
HalibutMcGaffigan - if you're happy with your rom, the best idea might be to backup your own rom and use the generic bigstorage rom hack to hack that, and then flash it back onto your own phone. That way, you're sure of no incompatibilities, and no messing around with hex editors.

To get your cabs off, find the extended rom indexing site, or use the technique of softreseting just after you've reflashed and finished aligning the screen.

Hello,

I recently bought a new flipcover for my Galaxy S4, and the weirdest is that if I remove the magnetic clip and lift the cover from my (locked and turned off) screen it automatically will unlock my screen without having to press a button. Also if i put it on again it auto-locks my screen and turns it off.

Now the question is, how is this possible? If I lay a flat object on the screen, it will not do it. This has to do with magnetical fields made for the S4?

Just curious, thanks.
