[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbuck999:
Hi there,

I'm a new member here but I've enjoyed the site for quite a while and have had a rooted SGS2 for about 18 months, I love the phone and see no reason to move onto anything else, but I've now killed it by trying to be too clever.

I upgraded to Neatrom Lite v4.8 a couple of months ago, and in an attempt to get a bit more out of the battery I deleted Touchwiz, not realising that the phone couldn't operate without it!

I went into CWM recovery and attempted to reload Neatrom, then attempted to reload the stock browser all of which were on my SD card, but I kept getting an error message stating that a file wasn't recognised, then I got an option to overwrite or rewrite the file, which I did, and now my phone is stuck on the battery empty icon or the Galaxy S2 start screen with the yellow triangle, depending whether I start from having the battery removed or restart.

Please can anybody help?

Many thanks in advance,

Alan

Back to stock via Odin to get a 'clean slate'. How ? Thread stickied near top of Q&A.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbuck999:
Thanks for that, I assumed that as I can't get into recovery mode or anything else that Odin wouldn't see the phone, I'll get try it later and post the outcome.

I'm sorry but I can't find the thread, the one I did see is for the I9100 International Exynos variant, mine is a UK T-Mobile so not sure if that's ok, and the tutoral starts with "enter download mode", I can't enter anywhere except a dead battery icon or Samsung screen with the yellow triangle, where am I going wrong?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
3rd thread from the top. If you can't get into download mode, it's a trip to a Samsung service centre (or other authorised repairer).

Sticker on the phone chassis, under the battery; what does it say ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbuck999:
I haven't got the phone with me at the moment to check, but pressing any of the combination of buttons I've seen documented doesn't get me anything except the empty battery icon or the Galaxy S2 start screen with the yellow triangle, which is why I assumed that nothing is going to see the phone as it is, this doesn't change even when the phone is connected to the charger, and there's no reaction at all when I connect to the laptop!

I'm guessing my happiness after your first post was somewhat premature? :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
OK...

What we need to do is to stop. Completely. And not assume anything else.

You don't even have the phone with you, so how do you know if the stuff suggested in that thread is possible or not with your phone ? (For example, if I had a buck for every person on here who got the button press combo for download & recovery mode the wrong way around over the past two years...)

When you get home, in front of your PC, with the phone, also search for Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread. That has a whole bunch of steps to follow/things to try when the phone & PC won't recognise each other. Once you can make that happen, then you follow the first thread I linked you to so you can go back to stock.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alanbuck999:
As I've already said it won't go into download or recovery mode , and as this is the first step on the tutorial it isn't going to work whether it's here or not, it's such a pity that the person who replied had to be so pompous and arrogant as I liked this site until now!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
I've tried to help you as best I can with the information you've provided. Given the situation you described, the only fix is as I described. There is no other fix.

Fine. Service centre. Pay to get it fixed or throw it in the bin. No skin off my nose either way champ *shrugs* My phone ain't busted.

You're making an awful lot of assumptions for someone who has so few clues. I tried to help you, but you're clearly beyond said help (you're on ignore now, so I won't see any reply - save your fingers).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
If your phone was 'dead bricked' you wouldn't even see the battery icon.....

From what I've read, your battery probably is near enough exhausted. You are going to have to find a way to get it fully charged before you try to do anything else.....try leaving the phone switched off and put it on charge.....if you get the battery charging icon, then after it's fully charged you can start attempting to recover it......

Hi

How can I Uninstall the blackrose bootloader and back to official bootloader with S-On

because I want to install a RUU stock rom

please help

I have blackrose hboot 2.03.0000

everytime i try to flash an hboot i get message

image update bypassed!!

how to get around this

please help :)

Thank you
[HTC Incredible S] LamboBull:
You need to flash a rom with an unsecured boot.img. I recommend CM7.

Press "thanks" if I helped you out!
[HTC Incredible S] yazanallahham:
That did not help

I flashed CM7 but still cannot flash hboot

still getting "image update is bypassed!" message
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
The BlackRose.exe has an /uninstall option, so boot your phone normally and then connect the phone and run BlackRose.exe /uninstall. This will restore stock HTC HBOOT 1.13. You will then need to run a RUU to flash an official ROM.
[HTC Incredible S] yazanallahham:
Thank you that worked for me but i had to download the latest version if blackrose setup (blackrose_is.exe) :)

Hello,

after knox update I have issues with my usb audio recording app USB AUDIO RECORDER PRO - AUDIO EVOLUTION MOBILE (multitrack DAW)

the apps does not recognize the usb audio interface anymore because can't access selinux (permission issues I guess)

is there any way to extact apk from a non Rooted I9505 with knox.. to manually edit permissions and then reinstall the app (the developer won't add these permissions and won't give refund after 2 months) ... I'm really disappointed that I can't record songs anymore to my phone because of new knox crappy firmware..

I know the problem can be solved by manually add WRITE SETTINGS permission.. (got a permission denied popup when the app try to access selinux check)

Hi all,

Can anyone help me with this problem?

I have a 32GB class 10 micro sd card and I have used it from s3.. when I went to put the card in my s4.. I was restoring some games from Titanium Backup and there is toast msgs saying External SD memory left 1.78mb..

How can it be if my card still have a storage of 25GB not used? Is the datas of the games in another partition or if I would need to format my sd card? To FAT or Exfat?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: externel sdcard

Look in the TWRP and or CWM folders and sub-folders on your external sdcard,

most likely you have many nandroid backups in those folders.

Or perhaps you have a lot of recorded videos on your externel sdcard.

If worst comes to worst copy all files and folders from externel sdcard to computer

and then remove the sdcard, connect it to computer and use this fat32 format utility

to reformat the card.

Here is the download link for the free fat32 format utility: http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/FAT32format-Download-79375.html

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ripnetuk:
Maybe the thinking behind the region lock for EU phones is that when a phone is stolen, the IMEI gets put on a blacklist. As I understand it, a lot of the more distant countries dont share a blacklist with the EU, meaning there is a market for stolen phones abroad. If the phones can only be used (usefully) in Europe, then surely that market disappear??

This is all assuming the lock is effective, which it seems it isnt :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kromosto:
i think it will not hassle developers too much to unlock region lock but if we assume region lock will stay then what you say is true. never looked like this to region lock :good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dehaani:
Even if the region lock was impervious:

The people who steal mobile phones would continue to steal mobile phones. They take whatever they can get. Their knowledge of particular devices is nowhere near what you seem to give them credit for. Their brains operate much like that of a magpie... i.e. Q) Is it big and shiny? A) Yes = valuable!

When the lowly thief takes their big, shiny phone to a dodgy dealer and they're told it's worth less than what they get for other big, shiny phones it's not going to put them off. They'll just be a bit peeved that it fell short of expectations. Besides, the top selling handsets are generally sold for under £100 to people who resell them abroad. The same people are almost always in the business of repairs too, so the parts will always have some value.

But EVEN IF the parts had NO VALUE! Even then, you'd still have thieves stealing them! They just aren't that smart and they're highly opportunistic.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Very true!

This is why it is never a waste of time to install tracking software on your device. The naysayers will say that it's pointless because the thieves will likely reset the device and flash a new rom, but it's going to be a pretty rare thief who has the knowledge and desire to do this. As you say, most thieves are opportunistic, and thus won't actually think about the possibility of tracking a stolen device. If it gets into the hand of someone more sophisticated, the tracking software may well be rendered useless but there's often a decent sized window where you might be able to track down your device.

Regards,

Dave

Hello! How do i install a new version of safestrap? Tnx in advance! =)

Inviato dal mio DROID4 con Tapatalk 4
[Motorola Droid 4] rruleford:
U follow directions in that thread but instead download the newest version.
[Motorola Droid 4] sysloc:
Google safestrap, one of the first links should be the actual SafeStrap directory. Download version 3.60 (the latest) .apk and install it normally like any other app. Open it and hit the install recovery at the top. Reboot. All done!
[Motorola Droid 4] bofis:
So with Safestrap 3.11 installed and running CM10.2 in Slot 1, I can just install the APK, run it, and tell it to install the new version and it'll replace Safestrap without affecting my ROM slots?
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
You will need to uninstall 3.11 first. Open the safestrap 3.11 app, uninstall recovery, uninstall the 3.11 app, install the 3.65 app, install recovery. It will not affect your current slots.

[Motorola Droid 4] bofis:
Thank you for the reply! I've been running 3.11 this entire time because I was afraid that uninstalling that version would reset my ROM slots and make me have to reinstall my ROM into Slot 1 and set it all up again. Will be trying this tonight!

Can I mod the HTC/Moto one and force it installed? I want to use QPST to explore its internals.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Killsleep:
Hello. How do did you enable in this mode smartphone Diag mode? You can link to the manual?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tewilove:
Temp root, and then run this it will allow DIAG.

Then setprop, see init.qcom.rc for details.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] KStf:
IIUC, diag mode drivers should be same for all Snapdragon (600 here) devices. Anyway it's pretty easy to edit driver ID and force installation.

Please keep us in touch, enabling QPST access will be great.

Also maybe you know is there any way to enter recovery without ADB?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] joshua.maxell:
My sharp is rooted thanks to you! Thank you! But what can I do now? Can I upgrade my sh-06e with Kitkat or update my present system 4.2?

Best regards for all of you!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cheeseus:
Welcome!

No, I'm afraid not. Sharp's (and all of Japanese manufacturers') smartphones use highly customized versions of Android. Your only chance to upgrade to a higher version is when Sharp/Docomo release it. Still, you will need to have installed all minor (software) updates before that. What this means: Once a new version of Android is released, send your phone to someone in Japan (e.g. the seller you bought it from) to update to latest build version, then upgrade Android, then return to you. Everything else - you risk bricking the phone.

What you can do now that you have root... Install Titanium Backup Pro to make backups of /system apps, then uninstall them (but make sure you read on Japanese sites what can and what can't be disabled unless you want to brick your phone).

Another thing you can do is install Link2SD to integrate updates of built-in apps into /system (overwrite the built in apps with newer versions). This, however, is not really necessary now that the phones come with 8-16 GB of onboard storage -- used to be important for phones like my 005SH or SH-01D where available ROM space was 200 MB and 850 MB respectively.

Yet another thing you can do is install AutoStarts to disable certain apps from launching when the phone boots, e.g. OneSeg TV and many others -- this will make the phone work faster. But then again, the SH-06E is pretty powerful... how much faster do you want it to be?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] joshua.maxell:
Thank you very much for this reply! That's very kind of you. My phone has some little fault (software). When I'm using the lock screen (trying to unlock) the phone resets itself. That's the one problem I have at the moment. My sharp is new and really great but I have little kids and I'm afraid that one day they may use my phone.

I thought if my phone is rooted I can upgrade the system to kitkat or normal jellybean ( not branded) and fix that problem.

Looks like I have only two options. Sell it on ebay or try it to do some upgrade. There are some apps on google play, maybe mobile odin pro or something? Any ideas? :)

regards for all
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cheeseus:
Hm... resetting when unlocking the screen... sounds weird. A friend has this phone, and my brother is still waiting to receive his in the next couple of days. But I haven't heard of any such issue with it. What is your build version? The latest one is 1.00.07. I read in the updates list that various bugs have been fixed but no mention of yours.

Have you disabled any apps? Maybe you can try re-enabling everything, then resetting to factory settings --- NEVER reset to factory setting if you have disabled any apps. Not sure about a rooted SH-06E.

I am sure that Android 4.3 will roll out some time this year for the SH-06E. You can upgrade it then. I might be able to help you with that but we'll see once the update comes out.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] joshua.maxell:
I did uninstall actually some apps but after when I restored the system everything was ok until I started to install google apps and the others. There may be some conflict. But obviously I'm not sure.

This phone is really pretty so perhaps I will not take a risk but who knows...

It would be nice if you could help me with installation of android 4.3. I have tired to find some information on Japanese websites, a there is some "img files" but those files are to small so perhaps it's not the system.

My build version is 1.00.07.

Kind regards

A little correction. I think I know what the problem is. I did not make an update of google keyboard and the problem gone. At this moment of course, after all day of using my Sharp. I hope this can be helpful for somebody.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] romeokk:
Have you finally managed to get QPST worked?

I really want to use EDGE on my SH-06E but it seems that I have to enable it myself with QXDM.

I saw some Japaneses use HTC Diag driver on Xperia Z Ultra and it worked. Perhaps it would work with SH-06E.
