Yeah that's what I thought too.

Hopefully we can fix it in time :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] pnr2020:
oh no my battery drained 30% over night phone laggy so i will not be able to put custom rom on phone anymore will we ever be able to downgrade or are we stuck
[Galaxy S 4 General] Obagleyfreer:
I'm really not sure.

Hopefully there will be a fix I don't know what I would do with a phone I cant run CM on, I'm so p**ssed off right now at this.

Does anyone know if we flash an older firmware in Odin with a .pit file would that fix things?
[Galaxy S 4 General] pnr2020:
give me instructions on how to flash firmware with pit file and i will try i got insurance on my phone so dont care if it goes wrong i just need to downgrade

[Galaxy S 4 General] Obagleyfreer:
I just manged to get back to CM and my SElinux status back to permisive from MH8 :)

I deleted a load of bloat from system app(knox is probably what helped) after rooting.

Then flashed official clockworkmod recovery image file using SGS4 Flasher.

Then booted to recovery and formated system (it wasnt mounted!!) cache and data and restored my backup :)

Im sooooo happy! :)

[Galaxy S 4 General] VoodooSix:
Flashing older firmware with PIT didn't work for me. :(

Let me know if it works for you - unfortunately didn't for me.

Any chance of a step-by-step guide on how you did this? Especially what you deleted. Also is there any chance it would work if you wanted to go back to an older stock ROM? Reason I want/need stock is because I use the Bluetooth RSAP profile - unless anyone knows if this is included in the CM ROMS...

If you boot into recovery does it have any of the KNOX lines or is the recovery with CM different to stock? If so perhaps it would be possible to do something like (assuming I've understood correctly) : Root Phone -> Install CM -> Un CM the phone with a stock ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 General] pnr2020:
please put up a step by step guide to what you did
[Galaxy S 4 General] DjeMBeY:
I've prepared special ZIP, it should (in theory) downgrade bootloaders ;)

NOT TESTED YET!!!! IT CAN BRICK YOUR PHONE!!

Instructions:

1. Download and copy ZIP to SD/ExtSD card

2. Check if you have BusyBox in /sbin, if not, copy and paste it from /xbin

3. Reboot into Custom Recovery (CWM/TWRP etc)

4. Install ZIP

5. Reboot

Please report how it goes

thanks for bootloader and i added here that same bootloader but for Odin cread as tar file

Zippyshare ---> http://www28.zippyshare.com/v/62712373/file.html
[Galaxy S 4 General] Takilandbau:
no work

Im tested,and not working for me. Im use kt-sgs4 kernel with mh8 rom, with root, busybox and the system is ok...but the bootloader is nt cool, i cant intall any custom rom. No voice, and cant call. Odin .tar file no working nand flash fail...

I think install with odin mh1 rom, and install philztouch recovery and intall bootloader recovery...its fine?Thanx
[Galaxy S 4 General] donalgodon:
That info is going to come in handy to some users who bounce back and forth from Stock to CM.

Thankfully, I had not been tempted to do so and still have the old bootloader. Never going back to stock myself.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Obagleyfreer:
Hopefully it helps at least a couple of people.

The problem comes when you need to send your phone back to Samsung for warranty purposes.

Even if you have old firmware, reset flash counter etc. I can bet my bottom dollar when it returns from Samsung they would have flashed the new firmware and new bootloader to your device. They are great like that!!
[Galaxy S 4 General] mathieulh:
It will not work, a Qfuse is blown while the bootloader updates, the bootloader itself checks the Qfuse status upon startup and will halt if the Qfuse counter is higher than the value stored in the signed bootloader binary. Forcefully reflashing an old one will do you no good.
[Galaxy S 4 General] getdunexpected:
guys, I'm on MH5 (DBT) . I know downgrading isn't possible but can I 'upgrade' it to MH6(EUR) or MH8(BTU) using Odin??

Has anybody tried it yet?

Samsung Opens Up KNOX To Consumers, Available For 2014 Galaxy Note 10.1 And Note 3 At Launch, Support For SIII, S4, And Note II Coming Later

Posted by Bertel King, Jr. in News, Samsung, Videos

Last Updated: September 5th, 2013

Samsung KNOX separates data and apps into containers, making it difficult for malware or intruders to gain access or cause damage where they aren't wanted, and it is integrated to a device's hardware and each individual level of the Android framework, making it a full-coverage solution. The software has been available to enterprises for some time now, alleviating concerns that Android isn't secure enough to protect corporate data and communications. KNOX is trusted enough to have been approved for use on the US Department of Defense's networks, and now Samsung is giving access to such security directly to consumers.

KNOX

Using KNOX, consumers can store data that they're especially concerned about, such as personal pictures and video, in protected containers that would be resistant to hacking attempts on stolen devices. The expanded availability of the software empowers users to take security into their own hands without reliance on an IT department.

KNOX will be available for the newly-unveiled Galaxy Note 3 and Note 10.1 (2014) edition at launch. Other older devices will also be supported, and though the full list isn't yet available, known models include the Galaxy SIII, S4, and Note II.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BiNiaRiS:
I'm completely at a loss here. I was running a 4.3 rom for the past week or two with no issues. Pulled my phone out of my pocket 30 min ago, hit the power button and the screen wouldn't light up. I tried it again and still no go. I tried swiping to unlock, even with the black screen and i felt it vibrate.

Ever since then my phone is non responsive. I can't get it to boot, can't hard reset it, nothing. The vibrates stop when I'm holding down power and down volume but that's about it. I timed the constant vibrates and they happen every 34 seconds according to the Win8 clock (which i've heard in inaccurate).

I'm gonna let the battery drain and hope that it will boot back up after it dies...but until then, any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Try plugging it into your computer and see what comes up. Which 4.3 ROM were you on?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BiNiaRiS:
That's the first thing I tried. I get nothing when i plug it into my comp. Nothing pops up in device manager. The comp doesn't detect it at all.

And I was running the 8/23 release of carbon 4.3 and I didn't have one problem with it until this happened :\

EDIT: The phone's battery finally ran out. It stopped vibrating and after a bit i plugged it in. After a few min it just starting doing it again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BiNiaRiS:
I disassembled the phone and removed the battery for awhile hoping it would somehow help. Didn't do anything. It showed the flashing charge light (like when it's really low) for maybe a minute then it stop lighting up at all. Sometimes if i leave it unplugged for a bit and plug it back in it will flash the light again. That's about all I'm getting out of it now.

I'm thinking something failed internally. It happened while it was on and I was using it so there's no possibility that it was from a flash or anything like that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BiNiaRiS:
Took my phone to the sprint store. The tech wasn't sure either but he thought it might be the screen that died. The vibrating could be the phone trying to boot then realizing there's no screen. They took it apart to check for moisture/damage and said I'm good to go for the $50 replacement.

So my new Evo will be here Tuesday.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] albanodesign:
did you resolved it i'm having same had same issue as you mine is htc sensation but think is the same thing ive replacet the digitizer some day ago and it was working very good untill it start to vibrate and than died, now it flashes an orange light when i try to charge and after a while stops but i cant power it on nothing hapens when i press power button
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] geffo:
Did you resolve the issue?

Did you ever resolve this issue? My Evo LTE started doing the exact same thing this evening and all of the Sprint stores are closed until tomorrow. I figure it's something internal that died and I can't see what it's trying to do... I guess you just got the replacement and didn't ever get it resolved with that particular phone?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] isellmidgets:
I've used many different android versions, devices, and ROMs, but I've never come across this problem before. I have a new GS3 currently (and regrettably) running stock 4.1.2.

Command:

C:\Users\Guest\Desktop\droid\APKs>adb -d install 114.apk

Return:

2535 KB/s (1898073 bytes in 0.731s)

... then nothing. Back to the regular command prompt like nothing happened. no "Success" message. It doesn't install. It's like it never happened.

I can't figure out what's going on. Anyone??
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Greycloak42:
As far as I know it's: adb install apkname.apk
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] isellmidgets:
i'm well aware of the command; i've been using adb to install apks for years. suddenly it stopped when i got this phone. my question is why did it stop and how do i fix it.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Milkdudengr:
I want to start experimenting with custom ROMs, and figured CROMi-X or Cyanogenmod would be a good place to start. What would be a good one to start with, and what are the benefits of one over the other?
[Asus Transformer TF700] TheOnlyBS:
I can't speak to the differences but i recently did my first root and flash and really like CROMi-X, the performance is leaps and bounds better than stock and its easy to install
[Asus Transformer TF700] Milkdudengr:
I'm thinking CROMi-X will be the way to go since it's close to what I'm used to. I just don't want to get one set up the way I like it, and then change ROMs because I find out I like the features of the one I didn't install.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
If you are looking for a look and feel close to stock, just much, much faster, go for CROMi-X. It's also more stable than CM because it based on the Asus framework.

If you want to customize to the wazoo and don't mind the occasional hiccup, go for CM. It is build from the ground up and offers way more options to personalize the tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jackdbr:
Unfortunately, I have to say that CM is even slower than stock. Very annoying. CROMi is way better and faster. Did not try the X version yet but it should be fast a well. Please let us know about you experience either way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Milkdudengr:
Other than customizing how it looks, what are some of the other options that can be customized?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Milkdudengr:
That is one thing I was wanting to get away from. It drives me nuts how slow the stock ROM can be!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Er....

Kernel - 5 choices now I think

DPI - Pixel definiton

Resolution 1080p or 720p

Which Asus Apps you want / don't want

Which Google Apps you want / don't want

5 different boot animations

Loads of performance tweaks incluing overclocking, underclocking, over volting, under volting

Additional options and menus

Full theme support through the excellent Colour Theme Mod (Change colours of almost anything and battery icons etc)

And loads more.

In fact I probably went a bit mad on the number of permutations I offer! :p It's a wonder they all work! :cool:
[Asus Transformer TF700] grammageek:
NTFS supported kernel?

Which of the cromi-x kernels support a 1Tb external drive? I flashed the ROM but I can't remember which kernel I picked during the installation. It couldn't read my external drive or a new 64 Gb microSD. I flashed back to stock which does support both BUT it is too darned slow!!!! Which should I pick next time? :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Milkdudengr:
I went ahead and installed CROMi-X, and I have to say I'm glad I did! I like being able to customize my electronics, so all the options are great! Thanks for the excellent work!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Try that's OC variant ;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] baudac:
Went Cromi and very happy with speed, stability and overall performance.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ghislandi:
Can you move from Cyanogen to CROMi-X?

I am on Cyanogen - how do i move to CROMi-X - not sure what are the steps.

I am unlocked with Clockwors Mod recovery...

Thanks

[Asus Transformer TF700] Milkdudengr:
When I installed CROMi-X, I just followed the steps here:

I have to say, I'm glad I did!
[Asus Transformer TF700] mikmock:
CROMi-X

berndblb probably summed it up the best in Post #4 but for me the only customROM choice is CROMi-X!!!

There are plenty of options and choices from rock solid stable to flying out of your hand fast but the most significant reason is you get a personalized team devoted to CROMi development, From the Master sbdags to the kernel developers, the software contributors as well as the testers. They seem like one big family... You basically get a bonus feature of an "Android Classroom" with this ROM. I have learned more about my TF700 from just following along with the OP's for all the CROMi-X versions.

Good luck and have fun with CROMi-X :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] derivitiv:
I've been using CROMi-X since I got my tablet last christmas. I love all of the customizations that they make available, plus all of the kernal options that they include.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRamz:
Cromi-x 5 is awesome very smoothe. Would recommend anytime
[Asus Transformer TF700] kbboykin:
I do like CROMi-X, using 5.1a. But I must have something not tweaked right. I still get it being bogged down when a software update from the Play Store is downloading. Also Lookout software checks everyone, so I guess that could be the culprit. But other than that, I do see some speed improvements over stock. I still have all but 3 of the Asus Apps installed. Just rooted and unlocked this week. So need to figure out what I really don't need in terms of apps.
[Asus Transformer TF700] EVANOVER:
optimizing loop

Upgraded to 5.1a odex and on every reboot go thru optimizing applications. Installed 5.1a deodex and it boots just fine. Reinstated 5.1a odex and does the same optimizing loop on every boot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Choose a different kernel.
[Asus Transformer TF700] EVANOVER:
kernels

Have tried _thats v5 kernel, and sbdags modified stock kernel.

Update: Tried all the kernels receive the same result, on every reboot it does an upgrade.
[Asus Transformer TF700] EVANOVER:
kernels

Have tried using all the current kernels and still on every reboot goes thru a upgrade loop. This nly happens on odex does not happen on deodex.
[Asus Transformer TF700] berndblb:
Yeah, I seem to remember that is a bug currently, only happens on a clean install of the ODEX version. I believe the workaround is to flash DEODEX and then dirty flash ODEX on top of it - but don't quote me on this. I would just stick with DEODEX.
[Asus Transformer TF700] EVANOVER:
Have tried that, but every I install the odex version it goes into the upgrade loop
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRamz:
I'm not sure if this solution will work for you but it did for me.

Reinstall cromi-x without x-loud, it's the cause for the optimizing app on every boot, or atleast it was for me.

I did this and now I don't have that problem. Hope it helps :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] SteveS815@gmail.com:
Asus apps in Cromi-x

I recently flashed Crombi-kk and found that I missed the Asus apps that I used to use. Splashtop, Supernote, filemanager, etc. Does Cromi-x 5.4 contain the original apps. I tried the Asus apps for Crombi flash but it made my tf700t almost unusable.

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] Parth2187:
Which region of Leaked 4.2.2? U can backup game data from helium app. This app is useful to backup data without root. So I don't have idea about 4.2.2 official.. May be its stable.. If u r using 4.2.2 Russian firmware so u cannot update Indian firmware through ota.. I think its better to flash via odin.. As I don't know about running tracker on triangle away.. I havent tried it..
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] Sulaimanshariff:
i dunno which region of leaked version i downloaded from anindya mukherjee's video 'android 4.2.2 on samsung galaxy grand' in the description there ws a link to hotfiles and i downloaded it from thr:(

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] Parth2187:
Yes.. Helium app can backed up to internal and external storage. There is option backup to internal or external SD card..

By the way u don't know about 4.2.2 firmware.. Okay.. What's the build number and baseband version? U may need to see.. Go to settings-> About device. U will see that baseband and build number there.. If u found it..
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] jetvis37:
AFAIK Leaked 4.2.2 is not belong to any region... better u Backup ur current rom through cwm on extsd....download ins 4.2.2 n flash it through odin...now if u r satisfied with it just root it...restore ur game data....if not just flash cwm n restore ur 4.2.2 (leaked) backup....or wait for some ins 4.2.2 user reviews....
