kk download you're stock firmware and flash it in odin, something went wrong my friend so you're going to have to start over

stock roms are here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1968625

the good news is download mode = soft brick so you are in luck! My guess is the ROM was corrupt or just a very horrible flash =/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cryceratops:
Thanks very much! I was able to use the stock firmware in conjunction with Odin to get myself back up and running!

Now the issue remains, is there any way to install CM 10~ on this device? I cannot find a proper version of CWM aside from the 'universal' one which I mentioned above, however, if I try and flash any version of CM using that recovery, it gives me a Status 7 error, which people say is due to an old recovery version. Any idea as to where I can find a working (new) version of CWM for this device?

Kind Regards,

Mike

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Cryceratops:
I've solved the issue. Thanks for all the help.

The problem was that apparently I had an outdated bootloader which wasn't compatible with newer versions of CM and CWM. I installed the new bootloader from a thread here in the S3 forums and then flashed a new version of CWM and managed to get CM running.

I'm having new, unrelated issues now, but I'm sure I will be able to solve those.

Thanks again
[General Omni Discussion] jawz101:
I assume the primary initiators of this rom have had this discussion but one thing I'd like to see is "this is the place where we talk about things."

Taking cues from other major rom projects you'll get a decent user base in using several forums or social services and some places get overwhelming or spread to thin.

Examples: a rom site having their own forum which doesn't get laid out properly and never gets used anyways. then an xda subforum along with a device-specific thread in each device's subforum. Then an omnirom wiki, an xda wiki, an irc channel, Google+/Twitter/Facebook trifecta, androidcentral,rootzwiki and a few others, jira, gerritt, mailing list, hangout...

You get the idea.

Social media sites aren't going away- personally Twitter and Facebook for a rom seem frivolous.

Mailing lists and irc are antiquated unless developers want a quiet place to talk. The many forum thing just seems onerous and duplicated. I dunno. I like a wiki, this subforum but broken down as necessary, jira, gerritt, and whoever wants to tackle the social trifecta can do that.

Basically, you can see what things I'm saying could get dropped or consolidated. I think this rom has that in mind and I could see it growing fastest knowing where to go.

And, personally, after using Arch Linux, their wiki is freakin' impressive. I've rarely had to turn anywhere else.

If omnirom broke the mold and had an awesome wiki that developers and active users maintained for device specific statuses, feature descriptions and statuses, etc. it would eliminate clutter.

Just my thoughts but it needs support. I guess you'd have to use Arch Linux to even know how impressive it is. Cyanogenmod did a pretty good job starting their wiki but it sort of slowed down. I think their wiki actually helped them get to being the most popular rom because of the wiki because of how much it offered for the new tinkerer.
[General Omni Discussion] jerdog:
So ultimately you are suggesting a solid wiki. Great. Help us do so by contributing to docs.omnirom.org
[General Omni Discussion] iofthestorm:
As a general Linux user the Arch wiki is still incredibly useful. I agree that wiki format is probably the best for conveying information about a ROM, the hard part is just getting people to keep it up to date and accurate. It'll be good if for instance each device had a wiki page that is kept up to date with known issues and workarounds. I feel though that the forum/discussion needs to be integrated with the wiki somehow for maximum effectiveness, because otherwise you often get a situation here on xda where a thread OP is filled with all sorts of useful, even up to date information, and yet people ignore it and ask questions that are covered there. So it's partly a social problem and partly a UI problem IMO. Anyway, just my random additional thoughts, agreed on the importance of a good wiki.
[General Omni Discussion] jawz101:
Well, I've taken it to heart and looking at the wiki more. Right now Last night I walked through the build instructions for the n4 but fell asleep during the repo sync. I've always wondered why projects have you download every old sdk. I guess it's in case you can't get them from Google? Seems unnecessary. I guess I can find out how to omit them from syncing. Those types of tips are interesting to me. I'm sure some things with development wouldn't seem quite as overwhelming if a repo was tiny.
[General Omni Discussion] pulser_g2:
There is a flag for repo to only download the current branch. Might be worth using
[General Omni Discussion] pulser_g2:
It is always an interesting questions of user dynamics, as to where people go.

I, for one, refuse to really use any of the social networks for this myself, as they're really not cut out for the task. They're also generally closed platforms that want to erode your right to privacy, and simply use you as a money making tool.

Aside from that though, social networks aren't ideal for hierarchical organisation. Right now there are a few things to consider.

There must be a code review platform for reviewing and approving code submissions. This will be separate from the others and most likely be gerrit. You can't replace that with a wiki or anything else.

You also need a proper bug tracking and project management area. That's jira. As omni is about having an open direction, it's important we can have road maps visible for comment and discussion and improvement. It is also important to ensure that the bug reporting and project management area has enough functionality long term. The only feasible way to do that is with dedicated software.

In terms of irc, it is most definitely not antiquated in the open source development community. If anything it is highly active, and often better than the modern alternatives, as it is an open standard allowing you to use any client software you please. It is also pleasantly simple and allows for real time group collaboration.

The big plan for omni is proper documentation though. That's where the wiki comes in. Not just of user information, but of developer information to help new developers.

As teh title says i am using v2.5.0.0 of this recovery rom for my samsung s4 device.

The issue is that i cannot mount my SD card whilst in recovery mode.

It never appears on my windows 8 machine when i connect my device in recovery mode.

I have all the usb drivers for my device installed and that is how i originally put a rom on it when i was running a stock rom.

Now that i did a wipe i obviously cannot mount my device on a normal running stock rom because its removed and i am trying to install a new one.

How can i access and transfer files whilst in recovery mode?

Do i need any additional drivers?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonneymendoza:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
Uninstall KIES and any other samsung usb installed utilities first.

Then download the official Samsung USB drivers for windows here: http://developer.samsung.com/board/download.do?bdId=0000000700&attachId=0000000001

After all the uninstalls are done reboot computer and install the official samsung usb drivers.

Once that's done reboot computer one more time and then your phone should and will

recognize your phone unless you have a bad cable or a non-functioning usb port in computer.

Good luck!

hi everyone,

I just buy a Qtek S110, It is a english Version, and I download a dump chinese rom for Dopod 828, after i fully charge the device, I upgrade the device straight forward by following step

1,use romupdate.exe to backup the ROM

2, use command ntrw read oldrom.nb1 i: to read the rom out

3,use Hex Editor to read first 416 bit in the oldrom

4,replace the first 416 bit in the dump rom which i Download in the FTP

5 use command ntrw write NewRom.nb1 i: to write the new rom to SD card

6, enter the serial mode again and press Power button to start upgrade, after 100% it display Checksum failed

7, Restart

is there any problem for my steps? after i restart my device it keeps in the serial mode, the device can not start again! even restore to the oldrom (the one I backup)

I attempt to flash the rom few time, but noting can be fixed.

and finally I download the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to flash back to Orginal rom and now the Back light can switch on and stay in White,

Did anyone can help my situation? thx in advance.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
ericcc,

what knd of sd did you use, people, including myself, are reporting problems with mini-sd and flashing. And did you do the 'restore' with a shipped rom? Cause that can solve your problems, see the upgrade to radio 1.13 for details on steps and downloads.

Final question, tried a hard- or soft-reset? Cause normally the magician doesn't stay in bootloader after flashing and restarting.

Regards, M
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] BuDDaH:
I've had the same problem flashing a wrong rom image.

My MDA was stuck in serial mode but also reported an error: ROM image to small (or something). I decoded a .nbf file but obviously this went wrong.

Maybe this is of any help.

At least you can access your bootloader mode!

Got a device from Germany over here in the Netherlands and after trying to update my rom I only have a black screen with a splash screen maybe once in 300 hard resets (but no bootloader!).

Can't be serviced in the NL because the imei is unknown and in Germany you can't send to a service center but only return it to a T-Punkt..

So this sucks....

hi,

Looking to write a program for android(java - eclipse -adt) which receives a photo, from either a local or network position , scales the photo to fit a specific border on the screen - then has the capability to analyse the photo colour in 16 different positions to find the mean colour value.

I then need the camera to be able to save a shot to a temporary local file position from where it can be analysed (in 16 diff positions again) for the mean colour , the mean colour of the camera pic can then be compared against the other photo's mean value and then various other features would be incurred if it was in +-'x' range for example.

To conclude , I need to know how to:

1. easily assign a number variable to a colour so I can manipulate it.

2. Need to know what libraries I need for receiving, sending and analysing the colours of these pictures.

3.need to know libraries for camera operation and how to save either a local temporary location or network location.

also suggestions regarding how to incorporate this into a clean ui with nice screen transitions would be great.

Answers / suggestions for all/any of these points will be much welcome,

thanks.

Sorry guys, this is an elaborate one.

So I was running the the 10/19 CM 10.2 nightly and I wanted to fix the GPS issue (and the LTE issue, I feel like I should include that because it might have something to so with the problem). Anyway, the GPS fix asks you to flash back to a sense based rom, download a GPS status app to reset and download new agps data, update profiles and PRLs and get a lock and you're good. After a DAY of trails and errors, got back to stock and fixed my GPS, GPS works fine now. The LTE fix asks you to open of the APN settings using the voice dialer and changing it to one of the LTE ones. I did that, LTE works fine now too. So just when I think I'm in the clear and completely stable, I try to text a friend and the test won't send. I try to call my house and the call just instantly drops, I try to call my phone from my house and it goes straight to voicemail after like a half a ring.

Hi all,

I have a Galaxy S4 which I have recently flashed CM 10.1 onto, having used another JB custom ROM until then. I have a problem with the vibration. It seems to be working fine after every reboot, but then as I start typing messages and using other functions the intensity of each vibration seems to die a little bit more until it stops vibrating altogether (haptic, notifications, everything). A reboot will cause it to get back to normal again but the same thing seems to happen.

I can't recall if this was happening before first flashing/rooting the phone, so I'm not sure if it's a straight hardware issue. Any pointers?

Thanks

Try going back to stock via Odin and see if it's actually a hardware issue or just CM10.1. Have you tried reflashing CM10.1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Te3k:
That's a strange issue.

Certain ROMs have "vibration intensity multipliers" as options, e.g. LiquidSmooth and I think ReVolt (both AOKP-based). These are helpful. That might not help you though, given that your vibration's dropping to zero (it won't matter if it's dropping from a higher level in that case).

But to rule out a hardware fault, I'd switch ROMs and see if that fixes the problem. (Because then you'd know it's software-related.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] cpmcguir:
I'm still new to this so it's a slow and somewhat painful process, but I just reflashed stock today and there doesn't seem to be an issue at all.

I stumbled across this thread where it appears it's a CM10.1 problem. Suggested fix is to disable haptic, reboot, enable haptic. When I get the patience to re-flash and set up my device again I'll give it a shot.
