[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrfurion:
Hi all

I reflashed an old i9000 with CM10.1 for my wife recently, and everything seemed to be working fine. Then it started behaving a bit funny and this week it started rebooting at random. I thought "no worries, I'll just do a fresh flash with stock GB".

However, before I could even give that a go the phone started acting even weirder. As soon as I put the battery in it powers on (without me even pushing the button) but it resets every time it hits the Samsung splash screen. Earlier today I could get it to go into CWM recovery and after clearing cache I actually got it to boot up. But by the time I had downloaded the stock GB files the phone was just constantly resetting at the Samsung logo and now I can't even get it to load CWM recovery using the 3-button method.

I can get it to enter Download mode, and it shows up in Odin just fine. But within 5 seconds it resets itself again so I can't actually perform a flash.

Any suggestions? Or is the phone just plain busted?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrfurion:
I'm just going to answer my own question as I've solved the problem but it may benefit someone else to know how.

It got to the point where the phone wasn't even booting to the Samsung splash screen, but I could still get Download mode to show up for 5 seconds (not long enough to flash). Then in a moment of desperation I got the original Samsung microUSB cable and plugged that in, and booted into Download mode again. This time Download mode stuck! And I was able to flash a clean GB ROM which is now working fine.

So the take-out from my experience is this: sometimes you really do have to use the original Samsung USB cable.

Weird.

Thanks for reporting howto ...:good: good to know
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NerdsBestAdvice:
I have a similar issue where I'm trying to flash my stock ROM on my Epic4gTouch. When it opens up the download mode error I start to flash and all seems to work before it reboots. Every 5 seconds. I tried the original cable and it did not help. Any ideas??
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingaos:
put the cable and press button power the phone go mode charging at this time make the phone in download mode

its ok for me:good:

First. Been running this since last night. Pretty cool. Thanks for your hard work!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] baddgoat:
So glad you decided to help us Skyrockateers. I've always enjoyed your work for the Hercules. Thanks man. You rock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Justin Thought:
Blast it! I guess I picked a bad day to try to quit flashing ROMs! DL'ing now.

Thanks for your work!

Update 10/2: I've been running this now for two days, and this may be the ROM that breaks me of my habit of flashing. Very professionally put together, It contains some really nice features! It may not be quite as thrifty with the battery as some, but that's more than made up for by its look and feel.

Anybody on the fence about flashing this ROM, I'd recommend you give it a try.

On a side note, being a diehard CWM devotee, I flashed using CWM 6.0.3.7 and had no problems at all. I did all the usual things, including formatting /system, which the community seems to agree is an absolute necessity with 4.3 ROMs (at least with the initial upgrade from a 4.2.x, and I have continued each time).

Again, I have to say thanks and a tip o' the hat!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Cl3Kener:
Hey guys,

I just rebuilt Revolt again because they added Active Display yesterday. Now this ROM really does have everything under the sun! I've also included my UBER kernel in this build so let me know what you think! If you are experiencing lag it is most likely caused by the launcher so maybe try Nova or Apex before you complain. (I've only had a complaint of two so the lag must not be that bad)

Cheers!

Cl3Kener
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Justin Thought:
Ahhh...good. So I can taper off by flashing this update.

If anyone, like me, doesn't know what Active Display is, educate yourself here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TMycL9mzpg

Thanks, Cl3Kener! I might have to do a video about this one, similar to what I did for another ROM. I'll advise when (if) it gets done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
This looks super cool! Gotta give it a try soon... I really like the Active Display idea!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
OK, so I took the plunge an flashed this. Running smooth and great so far!

I only have some minor issues with some screens/pages/settings not darkened out with Dark ReVolt turned on (which I greatly prefer):

Daydream settings

ReVolt Control

The default calendar app

Some Google Account settings

And in general:

The Quick Settings Tiles are rather awkward to configure without the Add/Delete tile and drag-n-drop ordering. More customization would be awesome!

I have no idea where the setting is to mute the volume change sound...

I have swapped out the calendar with one from TeamBlackOut, and I'm really liking this ROM,

especially with the additional kernel governors and capabilities

.

Keep up the great work! Thank you!

EDIT: No lag at all here, but then again I'm running Nova Pro... ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LPMatt:
I agree with Dan here. Also on Nova Prime. Some lag, but reducing animation to .25 helps. Would be great if Revolt options would go dark. On tiles, the profile tile gets stuck displaying my custom "car" profile even if it switches to another profile. I've never had that happen on other ROMS.

Also, music pauses randomly, then it starts up again (using Apollo and Jetaudio).

Pulled the phone apk from Hellybean to get in-call rotation back. Works great.

Overall a great job on this ROM. THANKS!

With the active notification enabled it looks like the proximity sensor will lock the phone even if you unlock the phone. This is with the pocket notifications enabled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ChattyMatty:
Wow, stunning!

Been an AOKP fanboy since the 3.2 days and have tried many, many roms but always went back to the pink Unicorn... no more. This is an amazing rom so far, thanks for the good work. Rockin' and rollin' at 1.72 can't be beat.

My only suggestion might be to tie the backround in the ReVolt Control menus to the Dark mode toggle... it looks so pretty black, then you get into the ReVolt Control and BLAMO! I feel like I'm in a Manfred Man song :(

Sorry for newb question

Looks great from the reviews so Im going to download it now. Just wondering: 1) when I flash this ROM the UBER kernel flashes with it right? I dont have to D/L and flast it on my own? 2)will I have to flash Rogers Wireless modems in order to get connectivity for our LTE?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Smittiegee19:
Yes and yes.

Where can I look on these forums to find the modem and a how-to?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Smittiegee19:
Try the stickies. Vincom has an everything you know topic. Start there and read a few times. It will allow to gain knowledge about flashing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cplhornby:
I flashed the ROM following the directions to the letter. It starts up slow, and eventually boots into the "enter your info phase". If I reboot the phone , however, it will show the samsung logo then go black. the screen is back lit, but nothing happens. I rebooted back into TWRP and wiped the cache/delvik and it started up again, but i had to enter all my info again.

can anyone help me figure out the issue? this is for my wife so Id like to get this working for christmas. Thanks guys!

[EDIT] I found this page and followed the directions. Phone works like a charm now. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46143509&postcount=7

Hi guys, I hope you can really help me out.

I have an O2 XDA IIs which I just tried to upgrade. Now during the install it comes up saying "ERROR 114" saying that there was an error installing the upgrade.

Now my problem is the phone just sits there with Serial 2.07 on the screen .... i've tried running the upgrade program again (the screen where it says what rom you have, and what you are upgrading to, it's blank in the current rom) but I still get the same error every single time.

I'm trying to upgrade to;

CE Image version 1.40.00

Extended Image Version 1.40.923

Radio Version 1.12.00

Can someone please give me some ideas as to what I can do to get this working again?

Many thanks

-formatted my external sd card within the phone with all the root stuff/roms in it

so i wanted to flash my stock rom

went into recovery and did a factory reset and when i wanted to go find the rom to flash it was obviously gone i decided to reboot and i am stuck on the galaxy note logo

i got bricked i guess?

anybody can help me?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
You just did the factory reset or any other formats like system?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toufiq47:
yes, you bricked your devise. search for a thread which will unbrick the devise.

pls note, the devise will not work properly as before, it will have many issues.

but the devise will run if you follow the instruction carefully.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
I don't think the device is bricked. Put some ROM in the external SD card and boot into recovery and flash again.

i think i did facotry reset and than unmounted some stuff

sherazzie, you could alternatively flash a stock firmware via PC ODIN, by booting your device into Download Mode.

how do you enter download mode ?? is is volume up home power like recovery

odin dosent recognize all drivers installed btw
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zai89:
OMG, just put any rom on your external SD..reboot to recovery (don't format your external again)...and flash rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvsandeepreddy:
just download official firmware from sammobile and go to download mode(volume down+home+power) flash it with odin..

dont worry i dont think ur mobile is bricked...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amm31c:
May do this

I don't think so that u have bricked your phone

Just put the phone in download mode and flash Factory Rom with Odin .. it will work
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
You cannot flash the stock from using recovery. extract it to tar.md5 and then flash it using odin. If odin is not recognized, then use any custom rom. Make sure you have CWM recovery when booting into recovery mode.

I actually picked this app up off of a dropbox link, online somewhere.... Thanks..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
It never fails, never had any problems with that one. The built-in ones are kinda sketchy, especially if you're (or the dev) modifying the services.jar in system/framework.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cynflux:
Thank you for the recommendation. However, neither the stock recovery or clockworkmod recovery work when I attempt to flash. I get a progress bar then the Android robot with a yellow triangle. I also cannot upgrade the Android OS. The phone always prompts me to update and the update always fails. Charging/data port does not work. Tried to explain to my wife that I rather fix the charging/data port, get a tablet and tether via my sprint epic 4g touch than upgrade to a new phone that is currently unrootable.

You could always upgrade you're rom version... after all.. gingerbread is a little outdated.. ;)

Unless you like that specific version..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cynflux:
Failed with settings for my phone. I am unable to flash through stock recovery or clockworkmod recovery. Guess I'm stuck with rooted gingerbread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cynflux:
Failed.

Can't flash/upgrade ROM either through stock recovery or clockwork mod. Guess I am stuck on rooted ginger bread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
I'm confused... lol. Why are you stuck with gingerbread... use mobile Odin...

I haven't ever tried a one-click with it, so you could get you're partitions right first... but I ran JB roms before I did the one-click, with no ill effect. That I seen anyway... lol.

I'm not sure if you would need to update the bootloader... like on my tab.. but a quick search should let you know. I was never on gingerbread..so I don't know. But I haven't ever seen anything about our bootloaders on this device. Might be because our recoveries and kernel's are tied together, I'm not sure.

Also... I'm sure you need an updated version of cwm... but the mobile Odin way..with the el29 direct boot kernel.. then flash rom of choice will take care of that..

I have a little mobile Odin guide I put together for another member if you would like to take a look into this... I'm glad to help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cynflux:
Thank you. I would really appreciate it. I have heard of mobile ODIN. This Samsung port issue. is really annoying.
