[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dr. Fed:
I thought that might be the case if the device is still totally MDL (ie never took the OTA), but I asked someone this and he said that both Odin flashes were necessary no matter what. And this dude is quite accomplished. So... I'm going to keep on reading before I do anything I suppose.

Thanks for this guide, great stuff.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
I changed CID to GOOGL001 and tried to flash a RUU and somehow my hboot got f'd. It will not connect with adb or fastboot. The Android guy doesn't look well. Anyone know how I can fix this?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
You still have the old firmware installed. The Google edition firmware version is inside brackets which means that there was an attemp to flash it bit it failed.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
OK, if it don't show up on fastboot, how can I re-flash firmware?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
Can you enter recovery?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Your bootloader is locked as well. get it unlocked.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
I do have twrp recovery and can get to it no problem. Phone works ok, but it loses data signal quite often and has to be rebooted to regain data.

I tried HTC1Guru bootloader reset tool to unlock bootloader and it said successful, but still shows relocked.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
When you connect your phone,fastboot or normal, isn't it recognised and listed under devices?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
No, "waiting on device".

I can connect to see files when phone is booted up...just not adb or fastboot.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
USB debugging enabled? Reinstall drivers for your OS.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
No usb debugging was not on(DOH!) but after I put it on. adb devices did recognize when the phone was booted normally, however after I did adb reboot-bootloader then it rebooted in fastboot and back to "waiting on device"
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivanovic:
Try the drivers uninstall/install thing if you have time but let the phone be on fastboot while installing the drivers
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
I'm guessing what I need is either twrp flashable firmware or a RUU exe that will run with CID of GOOGL001.

...or maybe I'm just screwed. I actually got someone wanting to buy the phone, but I wanted to fix it first. I have another One as well. This one is an ATT version and my other is TMobile.

Maybe if bootloader unlocked it would help????
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrpickem:
My other HTC One works fine in fastboot and I have installed the drivers a couple times...even back on a Win 7 machine now because I thought maybe it was the Win 8.1 on my laptop.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scrowlerfly:
ok, I dunno whether we are two of a kind...but I literally have the exact same problem! But my device says "tampered and unlocked" on the top. But if I go into a root checker app...it tells me that "this phone isn't rooted...

Does anyone have a clue on how to work around this please! Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] niceguy88:
Hi guys, I'm new here and in a fix. I'm with CSpire and to keep my current plan I had to find a used Galaxy S2 (Cspire has none) to replace my Galaxy S (slow 3g around Memphis).

Seller had all Cspire packaging,etc and said it was a company phone but when I get to Cspire they can't program it and show me the 'Mycricket' info in Settings. Call 611 and you get Cricket Customer Service so someone evidently flashed it to work with cricket at some point.

How much of a pain is it to try and get this phone back to Cspire so I use it? Only thing I was told by someone on craigslist (lol) is that I need to get the Cspire PRL for my 'new' phone and somehow d'load some software to flash it back to Cspire so I can get it activated but it seems like a lot of work, especially for a near 2 year old phone.

Any thoughts?

Thanks guys

[General Questions and Answers] ianNaos:
Have you tried going to SamMobile website, and finding stock firmware for that device?

That's a good place to find STOCK Carrier specific firmware for Samsung devices.
[General Questions and Answers] niceguy88:
Thanks, no but I'll see what I can dig up. The seller did finally mention that they 'lost' it for a month but didn't know what happened to it, and have offered to take it back so I told them to give me a day to look at it. The cheapest mint S2 phones are over $150 so it would be cool to fix this one since I only paid $90 for it.

I don't want to waste alot of time on this phone though. I've grown up building and overclocking computers but don't have any interest in doing that to the phone or spending hours learning how to get this phone back to the original carrier.

Thanks for the heads up on SamMobile though!

EDIT: I checked SM's firware listing and unfortunately mine isn't listed for the CSpire GS2. It's a SCH-R760.

I've seen newer white SG2 phones for around $150 that are supposed to be newer than the black models but I prefer black, and $90 lol. This stinks...
[General Questions and Answers] ianNaos:
Ya.. when I saw your first post I did a quick google search to figure out that model.. and the SCH-R760 is what I found and didn't see it on SamMobile either. Tough Luck.

I've never heard of CSpire either, so I thought you might have better luck finding a stock rom.

BUT... doing another google search.. I found this.. give it a quick look.. hope it helps: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1597686
[General Questions and Answers] niceguy88:
Thanks, I looked it over which is a bit much for someone not used to hacking a phone lol. One question, is getting a stock rom the answer to getting the phone to work with the original carrier? BTW, C Spire used to be Cellular South, a large regional carrier around the mid-south (Memphis,TN/MS/AL,etc)

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] ianNaos:
One question I should have asked first... does the phone have the stock Recovery installed?

To boot into recovery on that phone (if you don't know already, not sure).

1. Power off the phone.

2. Press and HOLD: Volume UP + Home Button + Power (in that order, one after another, keeping all pressed)

3. When you see the Galaxy S2 Logo come up, you can let go of the Power button. Then when a recovery screen comes up, or a logo for a 3rd party Recovery comes up you can let go of the Volume and Home button.

If recovery is stock, you will see "Android system recovery <[X]e>" [X] just being number for recovery.

If recovery is modded you will probably either see TWRP recovery or CWM recovery come up.

If it's STOCK, and you have already backed up all your information you can try -> "wipe/data factory reset" which will still keep some data, but system will restore to it's original state.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rockky:
Don't know how it happened. Was raining yesterday might not have had charger cover completely closed. I don't know...but there's visible condensation covering lense. Blow dryer does nothing.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 3mL:
Turn it off and open all covers then put it in a jar with rice and let it be for a couple of hours.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
check the humidity paper behind the SD cover. should be white.

If its anything other than pure white then... ouch!

Like the other member suggests... Place in a air tight jar with rice and or salt. Then place in a warm cupboard

Make sure the device is off. This will absorb moisture.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jewelkobayashi:
You have good advices already... Some more that might help a bit more...

Make sure the rice is fresh, in the sense that it is newly opened from an air-tight package. No good will come if the rice is old.. if only old rice available, microwave it for a while to drive moisture out.

But if you can get hold of NEW silica gels packs (those sachets that come in snacks etc to keep them crispy) it would be much better.

Also, I might suggest that you actually try to encourage water evaporation by leaving the device on, and even maybe letting it run on slightly high CPU intensity workout so that it warms the device up, all in this dry airtight environment. Leaving display on and using cpu would nicely warm up the right part of the phone, which is coincidentally around the camera module. Maybe video running on loop?

with BOTH USB AND MICROSD/SIM PORTS OPEN!

Lets hope it doesn't leave a water mark like on shower glass doors...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Only problem with having the device on and hot, is that evaporating the water will leave hard material behind. Like calcium and lime (what ever trace elements were in the water) This can cause issues later on.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
it doesn't matter if it is evaporating fast or slow, it will still leave any solubles behind. You might be lucky in that the water that got there may have been vapour to start with

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] effamm1:
Hi, i am facing a problem regarding performance and RAM usage of LG G2 (D802). I have noticed a considerable degradation of performance with rising temperature of phone. At one time, after playing EA real racing i ended up scoring 28700 at Antutu and after i let the phone rest for a while for cooling down the CPU (i literally refrigerated the phone) it came up with 33.5K at antutu. I did the same with my SGSIV (i9500) but it remained consistent with score ranging between 28-29K. I am using stock firmware on my LGG2 and its not rooted even... Can some one explain why is so and what can be the solution...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crzykiller:
The reason why your SGS4 didn't change scores was because for certain benchmarks like Antutu, Samsung disabled thermal throttling completely where as the LG G2 doesn't have thermal throttling disabled during those tests.

It unlocks the bootloader but we still lack of fastbot so, we only can flach custom .FTF kernels :(

Hi, I'm still rather new to this and I was trying to root my HTC one sv because I had my mopho rooted and was using some apps that I really liked.

I went and used this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2113671 and did all the necessary steps.... When I went to start up my phone is gets stuck on the screen with htc's brand name and below it in red text it says "this build is for development purposes only do not distridute outside of htc without htc's written permission. failure to comply may lead to legal action".

when it first did this i thought it would just take awhile to load, i waited for 30 minutes.

I've tried many things:

clearing all caches

redoing the rooting process in the above url

redownloading the files, double checking everything

factory reset

I've even research the other htc one models and problems through google. I found another superuser with busy box in it for the htc one sv and tried it as well

When you flashed TWRP on to your device, what command did you use?

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

Root isn't your problem right now. You flashed something incorrectly. And it sounds like you flashed a custom recovery into your boot partition.

---------- Post added at 04:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

That red text shows up when you replace a boot partition or recovery partition with a custom img. Which is why I would like to know what command you use. The tutorial you went to will work assuming no typo was made.

Go to this thread. Download from link in first post. Extract its content. Look for a file that has the word boot in it. Insure it is named boot.img. Change it to boot.img if it has other extension names to it. Flash that boot img in fastboot.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

First off thank you so much ^^ my phone booted after I did that it booted perfectly but I don't know if its rooted. I have to finish up the setup up, what I did was this

that was the last step I had did was this and re-install the superuser.zip through the recovery. I really don't know what I did to cause it to go to the boot system so thank you. If you could would you explain how I did that?
[HTC One SV] Modding.MyMind:
[MENTION=4720334]deadruin1991[/MENTION]

You accidently flashed your custom recovery in your boot partition. When it was suppose to be flashed to your recovery partition. That is why your android os wasn't loading because the boot partition was jacked up. The boot and recovery partitions are different sizes so there was a major conflict lol.

The only way to have done that was by typing

***DO NOT DO THIS***

fastboot flash boot customrecovery.img

When it should have been:

fastboot flash recovery customrecovery.img

Anyways, I have created a flash zip with the latest SuperSU and busybox. Just click link below. It will take you to my thread. Click on link in the OP and download SuperSU 1.75. Place it on the root of your internal sd card and boot in to your custom recovery.

Then flash it. And you will be good to go. If you are already rooted then congrats :).
