[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayssz:
Hi guys,

I really hope that one of you can help me with my problem!

First I posted this thread in another forum (T-Mobile, Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron Samsung Galaxy S III)

but they proposed me to place it here, because it is a international model. I9300 from Tmobile.

What my problem is:

Last summer a guy abroad rooted my Galaxy S3 (Tmobile) so I could use my phone abroad.

Unfortunately I didn't know that, cause my knowledge about devices isn't that good.

I think that he changed my IMEI number and that this is the problem with my simcard which isn't accepted by my phone.

Two days ago my phone started to do weird things like starting it self and locking it self.

So yesterday night I decided to unroot my phone, I thougt this could be a reason of it.

I unrooted it by a video at youtube and it worked. Only like I have said my sim card dont work.

The only number I can call is the emergency number and I don't think that will help --'

Please help me, I am really desperate!

(my english isn't so good, I hoop that I am clear enough)

Greets!

a few information maybe it will help:

Model number: GT-I9300

Android version: 4.1.2

Baseband- version: I9300BOLK3

[HTC One V] TaroSvk:
Hello guys, So I rooted my one v like 4months ago and got tired of the custom rom. As I was "exploring" the recovery I accidentally wiped my system :( Now I'm stuck on the boot screen and I can't get to recovery or even turn the phone off. Also my sd card broke and it doesn't work anymore. I have no idea how to fix it or if it is even possible to fix it. Could you guys help me? Im pretty new to this.
[HTC One V] heavy_metal_man:
If you power off the phone and then reboot using power and volume down to reach the hboot. After that use the volume buttons and power to select recovery. From recovery Restore your nandroid back up, assuming you have one. If not reflash your Rom with another custom Rom.
[HTC One V] cybervibin:
mate

System=ROM

just reflash the ROM from recovery and you're good to go
[HTC One V] TaroSvk:
Thanks for advices guys, but the problem is that I can't get to recovery :(
[HTC One V] cybervibin:
oh god why,

here power off your phone by holding the power button for 10+ sec

then press and hold the volume down button and power

you will arive at Hboot ,scroll to recovery with the help of your volume keys
[HTC One V] TaroSvk:
I did this several times, recovery just won't load up.
[HTC One V] cybervibin:
flash recovery again

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CaRBiiNeZz:
Okay, so I decided to screw around with my HTC One again, and ended up trying the new Cyanogenmod installer. Needless to say, I have screwed my phone up worse than ever and I have no idea how to get it back. It is stuck in bootloader, I can't go into recovery or reboot or even power off. It just keeps rebooting to bootloader. I tried the RUU, but it comes back with an error that the image version isn't correct, and I tried flashing another recovery, but i still can't get into recovery. Right now, I am sitting in my bootloader with nothing to boot into. I can use ADB however, just please help me.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tonyrance:
Try, "fastboot erase cache" and then try to go into recovery.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjskraju:
I've been watching this space for last few days, especially to know how much active development this device would get. There is no doubt that this is one of the best device you can buy right now in the Android market. But it still has less active development than a high end device would see after a month of its release. And being a cousin to Nexus 5, I thought this device will see the added advantage of much more development but what ever is happening is absolutely opposite to it. The development activity is so less, compared to what previous flagships HTC One, S4 had after one month of their respective release, there isn't a need to create separate forums for each major (carrier) version of the device.

Is it because locked bootloaders? or something else?.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HelloDominick:
blame it on Samsung S series and Note...Plus LG isnt known yet for the average consumer
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antinorm:
I've also seen a number of people say that they like what LG has done with the stock ROM on this one (and I agree). I used CM for a year and a half or so on my GNex, and the couple of times I've tried getting used to it on my G2, I've always gone back to stock within a day or two.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjskraju:
Yes, I agree that LG G2 is not as quite as popular as it should be(:confused:) but an average user doesn't hang out in XDA looking for different roms. Even Sony's one or two years old phones are getting KitKat where as this phone has not even having more ROMS to choose from. This is supposed to be the flagship & highest speced device along with Galaxy Note 3. And as I said, being a distant cousin device of Nexus 5, I thought many ROMs from different beloved developers will be available for this device but it is not the case. Many people like me choose Android platform over other(Windows Phone 8 & IOS) because of the availability of different ROMs to choose from. But seeing that is not the case, even those people back off from buying this device.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjskraju:
Its not only AOSP ROMs but also stock based ROMs too
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jank4AU:
Patience guys, the ROM's are coming.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimtyson:
If you want more development then learn to develop and provide your work to the masses. Seems to me there are a few good devs working on this phone. Keep in mind there are several variants which complicates things. I believe that the Nexus 5 will help get more ports for this device but I don't feel entitled to ask for anything or complain about slow development.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjskraju:
With due respect, before giving those heroic comments & suggestions, you should have understand what I'm trying to do with this thread, which is to get to know the reasons for not seeing as much development as we usually see with flagship phones(I don't know where you get the notion that I was complaining). I never tried or try to complain or demand anything, heck who the hell I'm to even think of those lines. I clearly was asking for the reasons in the OP(than complaining about any thing) that is it because of locked bootloaders or some other reasons. And every flagship has different variants, its not this phone alone.

But one thing I'm sure about is, any one who visits or comes frequently to this wonderful forum, he/she buys the device which is supported by our beloved developers, they don't care about the manufacturers supporting them in software update.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shook187:
The "why no development for this device" threads are getting tiresome no matter how an OP tries to disguise it.

If you want a device with a lot a ROM's, I suggest you get a Nexus or a Galaxy S phone and not an LG, Plain and simple.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 19Interpol:
A lot of xda users know that LG suck at providing updates to the latest version of Android. Samsung and HTC used to be the same way but they have really improved. Besides when it comes to GSM devs, I think most preferred going with the cheaper option the Nexus 5 offers. Also, quite a few people don't really like the rear button placement. Most of us have gotten used to it but try convincing someone who has yet to try the device.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdafoundingmember:
LG is in Samsung's shadow
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashN2u:
I think this is one of the reasons. Prior to getting the G2, I used phones that were as close to vanilla as possible, and modded my phone to be that. I am actually very pleased with how LG built their UI and I appreciate tge customization that is built in. I have never seen so many people on here so happy with the UI that they weren't in a rush to ROM their phones. Hell, the only reason I even rooted and added TWRP was to use certain apps.

The second reason I don't think it's not getting the support you're looking for is tge cost and how close to tge Nexus 5 it was released. If I was a developer, it would be hard to justify spending $600 outright for a phone when the Nexus was right around the corner with similar hardware for $350. The only thing that might motivate me to purchase the G2 would be the fact that I'm on Verizon and we won't be getting a Nexus.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] force70:
I was lucky enough to get a nexus 5 very early after the launch...i played around with it the day i got then packed it up and sent it back the next day..bought a G2 the next day and am glad i did :cool:

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tacosrdelicioso:
This particular lg is very dev friendly
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjskraju:
If you are saying I'm trying to complain & disguising it, then you got it wrong & I can't explain myself enough that I'm not. First of all, (in general terms) I don't understand how people demand 'help'(they only seek 'help') & complain about the 'help' after getting it, if somebody is not getting help from others, then the problem is most probably in that person(who is not getting the help) rather than in the people who usually help. Developers putting their hard work & putting beautiful ROMs for the users means they are helping others. So, the same thing applies here, I don't understand how people can demand 'help'(ROM development) & complain about it(development). Continuing that analogy here, I'm trying to understand what is going or gone wrong with this device for the development to not pick up as it normally would for a high end device. That's why I asked in OP, is it because of locked bootloaders?. I hope it clears everything on what I'm trying to achieve from this thread.

some members have said(answered)

1) Not as popular as other devices(I agree, to my surprise it is indeed true, but whoever used it they are very impressed with this device).

2) Whoever used it, they found what LG has done with the UI is very interesting & attractive, except that cartoonish looks. I've read people commenting in various forums on how good the UI they found it to be after using it. But, I don't think development doesn't stop depending on how good or bad the UI is.

For all the others who have nothing to say but to suggest go & buy Galaxy S phone or something like that, I would like to request them to pass on this thread.

[MENTION=4938464]Rohanx[/MENTION]m has talked about getting himself a g2 (see att htc one thread for his roms) abd zaph...something (who is on the aokp team) already has one but isn't working on it until he gets a warranty replacement
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
There are several reasons why the G2 is kinda "dormant" right now:

- KitKat just came out and is a major overhaul. They don't even have stable builds working on the N5, let alone other devices. We'll get CM11 and AOKP officially. ;)

- Older devices are seeing unofficial updates because they're development teams are already familiar with the codes and have them mostly ported already. This is pointless to port an old version to the G2 at this point only to have to rebuild for 4.4.

- The Stock Rom is pretty nice so there isn't a huge need for custom roms.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pbedard:
So true tgen ppl will complain when theres roo many choices
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathshead:
Coming from the Verizon Note 3, it looks like the LG G2 development is flourishing!

Development on the note 3 verizon variant is essentially a ghost town with like 2-3 devs.

currently we only have Safestrap and twrp, with 1 rom available and no ability to flash kernels.

If you're stuck on Verizon, the LG G2 is the best device with the most Dev support.

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

If anything G2 Dev should have a head start over other devices as the Nexus 5 is its sister device.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazewit:
First there are like 10 dif variants of the g2, go count all the ROMs for all carriers n you'll have more ROMs than I had on my gnex, 2nd kit kat just came out so all development has stopped for the most part on 4.3 ROMs.when we start seeing more dd builds come out of aokp and cm 4.4 ROMs development will pick up as 90% of all ROMs use cm device trees to build off of. Also its only been a freakin month since the damn phone came outn not everyone is rich enough to buy a 550$ phone on launch day. A lot of people get phones for Xmas and there for will have upgrades around the same time. Bottom line we have freakin great development for this phone its just spread out so go offer to test the various ports our awesome Deva are working on and don't talk about a non existent lack of dev support. We already have official support from a lot of the major players n if that's not enough there are a lot of great guides on how to build from source

When I power it off it charges perfectly without interruptions but when I turn it on again the same thing happens.

Should I just let it charge for 24 hours without use just like the seller told me at the store??

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lpforte:
Anyone else had issues performing factory resets? My Nexus 5 seems incapable of completing it. So far I have tried doing a factory reset from the settings menu 4 times. Every single time it locks up on the erasing step. I don't mean it takes a little longer. I have let it sit for almost half an hour and the little android robot sits there taunting me.

Every time I have had to manually go into the bootloader and sideload a factory image, which works fine.

Any ideas why this problem is occurring? Faulty memory maybe?

Exactly the same problem here. Nexus 5 running 4.4.2 kept powering off randomly roughly once a day. Attempted a factory reset and it got stuck at erasing. Having unlocked the bootloader and following the steps to unlock and reboot, I have a progress bar with the animated android icon, apparently stuck at the same stage, but without the "erasing" caption.

As far as I'm concerned, I can nothing with the phone at present short of taking it back, though they'll likely take issue with my attempts to rectify myself :rolleyes:
