Your EFS was corrupted

This happen sometimes when you flash a zip file or ROM that doesn't compatible to your device, it mounts different dev/block or device block address. Your lucky because your phone did not bricked.

To FIXED that, follow my instructions: ROOTED Required!

1. Download

Root Explorer

2. Install it to your phone.

3. open it, at left panel you will see "ROOT"

4. find "efs" folder, tap it.

5. find "FactoryApp" folder, tap it.

6. find "factorymode" file, LONG/HOLD CLICK until popup menu appear.

7. choose "Open with"

8. choose "text editor"

9. the file will open, you will see the content which is OFF

10. change OFF to ON

11. press back button until it ask you to save the file.

12. SAVE it.

13. Reboot.

●●● MASSIVE UPDATE ●●● Google Search 3.1.8 ●●● Brings Google Experience Launcher

Google Search - Latest Update

v3.1.8​

Changes:

It officially brings Search version 3 (3.1.8 to be exact) that shipped in KitKat to all devices running 4.1+. This includes an updated UI, new refresh animation, among other things.

Because Search houses the Google Experience Launcher (GEL) inside, this update also brings GEL to all devices running Android 4.1+. All you need to do after installing Search 3.1.8 is install the launcher app from here, and voila - GEL for all, not just KitKat devices. I have it running on 4.1, 4.3, and 4.4 on both phones and tablets, and it finally looks perfect.

As I mentioned above, 3.1.8 completely fixes the wonky GEL layout on tablets. As you may have seen yesterday, several things on the Nexus 7, for example, were out of whack - the keyboard was popping when you tapped Home, the icons were old, and the Search box was off-center. All fixed.

Remember: GEL does support transparency in the navigation and status bars, but you need KitKat for that to work. And Google disabled it system-wide on the Nexus 10.

New cards:

Website update card

News topic card

Traffic incidents using Waze on maps.

Recurring reminders.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HCFL:
Hi everyone. I've had my I9305 for about a year now. When I got it, I rooted the phone. Now, I've been out of the rooting/custom ROM scene since then, and I'm trying my best to figure out how to do what I'm trying to do.

I want to make CyanogenMod my OS. After much researching and googling I've learned that the best way for me to continue is to restore my device to stock condition and start from scratch. This is after trying to boot into Download mode and trying to flash Clockwork Touch 6.0.3.1 .

Note:

I've made sure all my connections are good, attached the USB cable to the back of the motherboard (no USB hubs) and tried different USB cords. The phone is fully charged. No SIM card or SD card in the device.

So far I've tried using Heimdall 1.4RC2 to flash CWT. It proceeds very quickly and does not show a blue progress bar on the phone.

I then tried to use ODIN to flash the stock recovery. That one also proceeds very quickly and does not show a green button until I remove the device from the computer.

Now, I can no longer boot the device. I get as far as the first Samsung logo and after half a second it disappears and turns off.

It might be valuable to note that I cannot boot into recovery mode. When I press the button combination I get the blue dialog above the Samsung logo but it disappears in half a second and the device appears to turn off. The reason I say it appears to, is because the screen turns black and the power button no longer turns it on until I remove and replace the battery.

Good news is I can still boot into Download Mode.

I really do not want to continue at this point because I am too afraid of bricking the device.

The phone is not vital, as I've bought an LG G2 to use as my main device and will not be rooting or fooling around with it.

I would more or less like to use this Galaxy S3 as a teaching tool.

I hope I've provided enough information and hope someone can be a guide for me!

Thx to all,

Mike
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidk-il:
Hey,

Sounds like you are having a driver issue on your pc.

1. Charge your phone!!

2. Assuming you are using windows, try google for i9300 usb drivers. After installing flash philz recovery via odin and try to reboot to recovery.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goretto:
Or you could install Samsung Kies to get the USB drivers.

Also, don't forget to turn on USB Debug mode in the developer settings.

A good resource I found when trying to root and install a custom recovery was Android Geeks. They have many tutorials. (disclaimer: I am not affiliated with Android Geeks at all)

I recommend you to root and install a custom recovery using ODIN. I've done precisely this, and I use CWM and have no problem. I've tried many roms and it works like a charm (currently on Temasek's 4.4 ROM).

Critical you read the first two posts .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HCFL:
This is where I am confused... After reading all of those two posts I'm still unsure about what to do.

I cannot boot into my device and therefore can not install proper drivers or enable USB debugging.

I have went ahead and installed "Samsung Galaxy S3 Unified Toolkit v7.0.0" to try and guide me along this complicated process.

After following the instructions given by the toolkit (to a tee) I am unable to get a serial number at the top of the menu, and therefore cannot continue with that program.

So is the first step in this whole process getting the recovery to work? If so, where should I start since I cannot even boot into it nor talk to my phone properly with my current drivers.

The only thing I have working right now is Download Mode.

The screen shows the following text:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747M

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (18 counts)

CURRENT BINARY: Custom

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

I am unable to find the answer to my problem at this point...

If someone needs more information in order to help me don't hesitate to ask.

Thx everyone,

Mike

NOTE: I tried using the recovery.img file included with the above mentioned toolkit with Heimdall and I was able to successfully boot into recovery mode. I did a data cache reset and also a factory reset but I am still unable to boot into the android OS.

NOTE2: I downloaded the stock rom for my device, which I later found out was codenamed d2att or SGH-I747. Mine is actually the Canadian Bell SGH-I747M. Roms for the d2att still work on my phone though. So I flashed the ROM using ODIN after I installed the drivers using the zadig.exe file included with the Heimdall package. The flash worked like a charm. When my phone rebooted it immediately booted into recovery with some errors in red (those of which I can't remember). When I rebooted my device shows the glowing Samsung logo and stays there. It does not load into the OS.

I have a problem with the 3.1.8 update. Every time I use Google now and press home, it asks me for my default launcher. Even if pressed always. It does it every time. I've cleared defaults of the stock launcher, and it still does it!

Same Here - Possible Solution

I also was suffering from the "Default Launcher Issue" with Google Search 3.1.8 on my Galaxy S4 (Android 4.3). However, my wife's (identical) phone had no such issues.

In order to see where the problem lies, I first uninstalled all non-stock launchers, including GEL. This did not fix for me (but may for other phones).

Second I tried the app Launcher Switcher from the play store to see whether it would be able to fix the problem. To my surprise, when opening Launcher Switcher it showed three Launchers to choose from rather than the two stock ones. In addition to Touchwiz and Touchwiz easy it also showed the Subway CA app from zippyyum. While the Launcher Switcher did not fix the Default Launcher Issue, uninstalling the Subway ordering app did the trick. Pretty strange that the Subway app registers as a launcher.

adb sees my tablet when it is running normally, though. I was able to reboot into recovery using adb. It just lost the connection as soon as I was rebooted in recovery.

Does anyone know how to make windows see my tablet while it is in recovery mode?
