[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncotton:
I think I've got a fix!

I think I've found a way to do this!

I was having the same problem, press encrypt (or run the terminal command) and the phone would just reboot, still not encrypted.

I tried to unmount /data without luck, I tried airplane mode, I tried force-quitting and turing off as many services and apps as I could find, no luck.

Then I tried SAFE MODE. So if you LONG PRESS the power off button you'll get a window that pops up and asks...

So I rebooted into safe mode, went through the normal settings menu to engage encryption (did not have access to terminal anymore since all the apps were locked out) and now it's going strong.

So, to sum up, rebooting into safe mode may allow you to encrypt your device when it is otherwise failing. Enjoy.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avah:
Glad to hear that booting into safe mode helped you. Safe mode is a lesser-known feature of Android and always worth a try when there is something weird going on (or not going on!) on the device. Unfortunately I had already tested that with no luck. As I wrote in my earlier posts, all these methods have failed:

Thanks for the suggestion anyway!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mionita:
A slightly different issue

This is what keeps my encryption from starting (using vdc from the command line of ADB):

E/ProcessKiller( 1961): !@Process tmp-mksh (6996) has open file /data/data/eu.chainfire.supersu/logs/L13935954020000.GRANTED.ADB shell (deleted)

...

W/CryptfsUT( 1961): Failed to unmount /data (Device or resource busy, retries 0, action 2)

E/CryptfsUT( 1961): Giving up on unmount /data (Device or resource busy)

And after disabling the supersu logging feature:

I did unmount /data and it did not complain about anything:

# umount /data

umount /data

then started encryption:

vdc cryptfs enablecrypto inplace whatever_password

and this is the log:

I/CryptfsUT( 1962): /mnt_1/sdcard_1 sucessfully unmounted

I/CryptfsUT( 1962): /mnt/shell/container sucessfully unmounted

Still nothing...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trenolltre:
I had huge problems getting encryption to work after stock 4.4 + cf_auto_root with the logcat telling me /data was busy. What finally did it was to boot in Safe Mode (hold volume down during boot), over adb shell unmounting everything down to and including /data manually and then issuing a vdc cryptfs enablecrypto. This way I can now also enjoy pin lockscreen and device encryption while on stock rom.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EwOkie:
My friend just got an S4 Mini 19195 LTE The same as me on fleabay but it had a different Rom in it .. some overseas Rom

So we are trying to install the I9195XXUAMH2_I9195OXXAMH4_I9195XXUAMH2_ Rom for the UK Region

Flashing via ODIN (did this many times) but on his it comes up Fail when flashing xmit write fail or something...

Do I need a PIT File ?

It goes to recovery and Download with no issues

Tried with and without Sim and SD Card...

Same thing happens with ODIN 3.07 / 3.09

Help please as soon as you can... :confused:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aspot72:
Do hard reset before and after flashing.

Thanks will try that I am trying to put I9195XXUAMH2_I9195OXXAMH4_I9195XXUAMH2_HOME.tar Rom to it

Am I better with a custom kernel or ??

As when i use this post HERE for Rooting

I encounter an error like this : unknown volume for path (sd/ext)

Sometimes the PC doesnt copy files over which i think something is wrong with partition
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aspot72:
Custom kernel is better with some custom ROMs.

I am using W7 Ultimate and no problems at all.

I would suggest you to uninstall all Samsung stuff, clear PC cache and restart. Reinstall drivers connect your phone and let install drivers. Don't install KIES. Unplug phone from PC and do hard reset (either via Menu or Home+Vol Up+Power).Then turn off your phone and reboot to download mode, connect to PC wait for driver installation and when Odin shows/recognized phone proceed with flashing. It takes about 5 min.

My CSC showing TSI (???) but flashed generic UK(BTU) and generic German (DBT) ROMs without any problems.

I have used this ( I9195XXUAMH2_I9195OXXAMH4_BTU) from Sammobile.

Not sure about Samsung's region lock, but I think its just 3 regions : EMEA, Asia and Americas.
[Nokia Lumia 920] one-option:
Dear All:

I just got a new Yellow Lumia 920 :( and I upgrade it directly to Amber GDR2 as I got it through Wifi.

My Lumia 920 Info:

1-Manufacturer name: RM-821_apac_Malaysia_316

2-Mobile operator: 000-MY

3-Carrier: CV Malaysia

4-OS version: 8.0.10328.78

5-Firmware version number: 3047.0000.1326.2009

My problem is when I press lock key to unlock the screen (specially under fluorescent light) the screen will start to shake and blink for some time.

My setting is Auto Brightness off , Glance off, magnifier off & brightness set to low.

I believe that the issue is about ambient light sensor

I tried soft reset and turn off then turn on the mobile in dark room , cleaned the mobile in spite of it is new.....nothing work.

so is some one know how to fix this issue & Is it a software or Hardware issue ?

Note: I live in Middle east and there is no warranty for my mobile
[Nokia Lumia 920] one-option:
By the way

I installed more than one screen pixel test and after i run the test the screen was blinking much more than before and now it is back to it's normal faulty manner
[Nokia Lumia 920] gee2012:
Maybe a data factory reset will help you. If it doesn`t reflash the firmware with Nokia Software Updater for Retail from here http://jkorondy.com/Lumia920, also is a tutorial for how to do it. If that doesn`t help also it may be a hardware issue bro. Good luck.
[Nokia Lumia 920] one-option:
I tried soft reset then hard reset but still

turn off then on in a very dark room and it is still the same

I notice when using black image as lock screen it will not shack or blink .....................!!!!!

some Nokia 920 owners said it is a normal problem ????!!!!

why Nokia & Microsoft doesn't pay attention for small things ??????????
[Nokia Lumia 920] one-option:
Ok I just contact windows phone 8 support & they told me that the problem can be fixed If I flashed the firmware correctly in Nokia support !!!!
[Nokia Lumia 920] one-option:
Hi Guys .

I'd like to confirm that I already flashed my Lumia 920 with latest Firmware available for my device {Downloaded through Navifirm}, but that didn't solved the issue as the Microsoft team promised.

I believe now that the issue in the Hardware Side now :eek:

Not sure But still I hope that soon some one will figure out what is this issue and blinking screen is about, Hope soon

Nokia .................... I will think twice before I will buy anything from your produces in Future.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Solarenemy68:
So what happens if you put your finger over the light sensor and keep it there for a moment? Does it get worse, better, or stop?

If it is hardware related, then this is what a warranty is for. Send it in.. If you don't have a warranty or can't send it in then the best you can do is take it apart and maybe clean the sensor and around it and that might help or fix it. Otherwise you are out of luck.

If somebody had a fix for you they would have posted as this is a popular forum. Seems you are the only so far that has posted such a problem. So you are the first and it is up to you to tell other how to fix it if they encounter the issue.
[Nokia Lumia 920] one-option:
Man I gave up

that's it . there is nooooooooooooooooo fix, there was many threads in different forums and no one could find a fix.

Hi all,

I have tried to root my optimus g using framaroot. Everything went fine but i decided i didn't need to change anything so i unrooted again using the same tool.

After that, without altering anything during root, i cannot use data (2g/3g/LTE) connection at all. When i enable data, it connects for 3-4 seconds and then disconnects. I tried my sim card with another device and workd fine. I tried to use 2g, 3g, LTE...same result. The icon comes on and off in some seconds.

I tried to backup my device using lg tool (everything apart from settings), did a factory reset and restored my phone. The problem exists.

Do you have any idea?

Thanks!

Backup your data on pc,then use kdz updater to flash official firmware. Root,unlock and let it like that. Don't unroot,especially if you eemoved system apps. You may endup with bootloops and security error message. The root will not affect your everyday usage of the phone. Same with unlocked bootloader.

Sent from stock LG E975/smart phones,dumb people.
[LG Optimus G (International)] davevinci:
Yes just go back to factory stock using kdz...
[LG Optimus G (International)] Xaotikos:
So, i used the lg updater and used the stock firmware for Greece. I didn't do any reset to factory defaults or anything like that.

When lg updater finished the phone restarted. It was still on 4.1.2 and all my settings were there.

The problem still exists!!!

Did i do something wrong?

Is there any way to revert it to completely stock (clean, with 4.1.1 lets say) as it was when i bought it?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] KeeKeeB:
My phone was charging while I was taking an nap and when I woke up my phone was off I also noticed it was hot so I turned it on and it wouldn't boot passed logo screen. I then went to bell and they would not replace it because there is a small crack at the top right of the screen which voids software warranty. One of the bell store employees attempted to put the phone in recovery mode but the process was stopped multiple times due to the fact that the phone only powers on for a few seconds. I don't have the money to buy another gs3, is there anyways to fix this. Doing some research on the phone and i believe it is hard bricked or something of that matter

*Update* Went to a cell repair shop, turns out its actually the power button that needs replacing and this is why the phone continually turns off and on and never reaches passed the logo screen. Apparently it's common for the power button to stop working or get all messed up on the gs3, if you have not rooted your phone or played around with the software the power button may be the cause of it not passing the logo screen and your phone might actually not be bricked

If I go into the Storage option under settings I see that my internal storage has 577mb free with 1.7gb in use.

Any clue how that discrepancy happens? I keep getting low space warnings about the 577mb free and trying to figure out what's up because when I add up my app usage, it is nowhere near 1.7gb.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] KatanaMan:
Looking for a creative solution here. It seems I have a perfectly functioning phone that won't display anything but a short flash of light around the edges of the screen. Capacitive touch works, can feel the haptic feedback. Phone rings, can be answered if you swipe in the right place. Just no display.

I need to send it to Samsung for warranty repair, however I'd like to grab a NAND backup first because they are sure to wipe it. To do that, I need a display! I'm rooted with custom recovery, of course. Can I gain screen control with an app similar to ODIN? If I purchase an MHL to HDMI adapter, will it automatically start showing my screen output on a TV? Is there something else I'm not thinking of?

This might be a long shot but you could try to connect the phone to a tv or monitor. I haven't used it yet. I've not had the money to pick of an adapter or whatever you use. I plan on it though. Either way, I'm assuming it should automatically display on your screen, like typical plug and play devices. Either way good luck. I you could try remote applications, but I'm not sure on how you would get them installed without writing it into the application apk.
