Hi all

I’m a complete noob at this and it seems like I have got myself into a bit of a pickle. Sorry for the massive description but I thought it would make it easier to get a good answer.

My Phone:

Samsung Galaxy S4 GT 19505 LTE

PDA I9505XXUEMK8

CSC I9505BTUEMK5

MODEM I9505XXUEMK8

I successfully rooted my phone using Odin. In Odin I added the "CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar.md5" file to the PDA field then rebooted the device. Then I added the "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-jfltexx" file to the PDA field, rebooted the device and the phone automatically opened in TWRP recovery. In recovery mode I wiped the cache, system and dalvik cache. I then went to install, browsed to the "I9505 Official_Google_Edition_4.3_by_Jamal2367_Finaly_v2.0" file on my SD card, rebooted the device and the Google logo came up on the screen for a few minutes and all was good. Got my new ROM, ran a root checker and all was good.

After some research I decided I wanted to use the Pacman ROM as it seemed to a lot more customisable. Using the same method I went to TWRP recovery wiped the cache, system, and dalvik cache. I then went to Install, browsed for the pacman ROM and the Gapps file on my SD card and everything installed ok, the phone restarted and the pacman logo came up everything was fine. Although I did notice on start up that I got this message.(and have had this error message ever since)

kernel is not seandriod enforcing

set warranty bit : kernel

After using the Pacman ROM for a day I noticed a lot of bugs like my apps would disappear, I couldn't use my banking apps and my phone was generally performing very badly. So I decided to remove the ROM and use CyanogenMod ROM under the recommendation of a friend. So again I pressed home+power+vol up to enter recovery mode but this time it didn’t enter the TWRP recovery it entered the stock recovery mode. This was slightly concerning but I proceeded to use the list menu and cleared the cache etc, browsed the SD card and went to the CyanogenMod 10.2 ROM I previously downloaded. It began to install but in red I got the error message stating that I didn’t have the right permission or signature. The phone rebooted back to the Pacman ROM. I tried the above three times and it still continued to boot back into Pacman ROM sometimes I struggled to even get back into recovery mode.

Soooooo I decided to try and go back to the Google Edition 4.3 ROM and play it safe, using the method from my first paragraph. But when it installed through TWRP I got an error message saying cant find MD5 file. The device rebooted and the Google edition logo came up on the screen but it seems to be locked in a loop. The Google logo wont go away and the phone vibrates once then three times quickly every 10 seconds.

I can still enter both TWRP recover and Download Mode. But I don’t want to mess around with it anymore without getting some advice. Any help would be much appreciated as I really need my phone working.

Thanks again

Aiden

Did you create a backup while on your first run with google edition? If so wipe cache, system, and dalvik and restore to your backup. Should put you back to where you began.
[General Questions and Answers] toecutter69:
I know I should, but I didnt. Is it still fixable ?
[General Questions and Answers] toecutter69:
*Update*

Couldnt help myself had to have a tinker around. Managed to get Cyanogenmod 10 working with Gapps. Gonna see how I get on with this. Although still would like to know I have been having all these problems.
[General Questions and Answers] lwg45714:
Sometimes things just dont go as planned: p I have easily soft bricked my phone around 10 times and always able to fix it. You really should have made a stock backup before flashing anything. I recommend doing it now so you at least have a known working configuation backed up for future use. Trust me backups are your friends!
[General Questions and Answers] toecutter69:
Thanks for your replies.

Ye gonna that right now ;) Cyan Mod so far is running very smooth without any problems.

Just letting people know that the HOME button is NOT needed for booting into download mode or recovery.

I see so many people saying Volume+Home+Power boots to Download or recovery but it's not true for the S4.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE HOME BUTTON AT ALL.

Just hold Volume up+Power for recovery and Volume down+Power for download mode.

It only works for i9505 I think, it appears i9500 still needs HOME button pressed.

If you anything like me and boot into recovery multiple times a day this will save your home button. We all know that Galaxy S4 home button is weak and can break easily so give it a rest :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Obagleyfreer:
Just giving this a friendly bump.

I feel that people should know this as even Recognised Devs are saying in their ROM installation instructions to hold Home button. Also many many tutorials here on XDA are saying the same.

It's pointless to use home button. It does nothing!
[Galaxy S 4 General] nirockz11:
Is it only in galaxy s4?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Skipjacks:
Who are all these people are are saying this? I've never heard about pressing the home button before I saw this thread. I've never seen any developers suggest it either.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Obagleyfreer:
Here are 2 threads I found after a 2 minute searcgh where Recognised Devs say to use home button.

I'm just letting people know as I think the other Galaxy S phones did require the HOME button so people might not be aware mate. :)

Anyone facing issues trying to get into Recovery console after 4.3 update, the recovery goes away pretty quick, home button pressed or not, also on rebooting after trying to access the Recovery, getting a Knox security error
[Galaxy S 4 General] ranger4740:
Try just holding the volume up button for about 5 seconds longer.

Was already doubting about it. Saw some people describe to use the home button, and some didn't. But to be honest, does it really matter? It doesn't harm to do it anyway.

Anyway, thanks for the clarification :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
Can someone help me with me problem?

I have a Nexus 4, its currently running 4.3 & want to update to 4.4 without loosing my data.

Its a stock 4.3 ROM, but my device has the bootloader unlocked, rooted & has Franco kernel installed along with TWRP recovery.

Recently, I've been getting the notification that 4.4 update is ready to install. I click ok & the phone re-boots into TWRP, after a few seconds the screen goes back to the main TWRP menu without installing the update.

So, I downloaded the latest factory image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images (Android 4.4 (KRT16S)) & extracted the 'image-occam-krt16s.zip' file from the 'occam-krt16s-factory-2006f418.tgz' download. I then booted into TWRP > Advanced > ADB Sideload.

and ran the following command from adt sdk tools: 'adb sideload image-occam-krt16s.zip'. This sent the zip file to the phone (took about ~1 minute) & the update started but failed almost straight away.

This is the error message I got:

Can anyone point me in the right direction why 4.4 wont install?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
Thats not how it works. The factory image zip is not flashable...it contains the imgs for flashing via fastboot, not a recovery.

You can get the flashable ota zips from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2145848

The ones found on that thread can be adb sideloaded.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
Thanks for the update.

So, according to the link you provided I need to wipe everything & revert back to stock.

So, there's no way to install 4.4 if I have TWRP & custom kernel installed?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
No there is a way. Download the ota zip from that page and flash via TWRP. It should work, assuming that you are currently on 4.3 JWR66Y.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
Not saying your wrong but theres a ton of links showing you how to install the factory image via adb sideloading.

http://phandroid.com/2013/11/21/dow...d-4-4-kitkat-krt16s-ota-directly-from-google/

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...riants-of-nexus-7-2012-and-2013-and-nexus-10/

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...16s-ota-manually-root-or-unlock-not-required/

What gives??
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
Thanks, I'll give that a go.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
The links are not installing the factory image image by adb sideloading. They are using an ota zip (what i have provided you with above) and sideloading that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
Thanks.

Someone lead me down the wrong path with the OTA image. They told me to use the factory image one. Sorry about the dumbness!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
I've tried updating via TWRP install & adb sideload with the image from the link & it fails each time.

Seems that theres something not quite right with my phone. My phone is definitely running 4.3 JWR66Y with 3.4.0 Franco Kernel.

Is my version of TWRP ok - I have 2.6.3.0. I didn't know if this had any issues with flashing 4.4? I've tried updating it through Goomanager but i doesn't seem to want to download the latest version.

edit, just manually install 2.6.3.3 & update is still failing.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
You are definetly using this right?: http://android.clients.google.com/p....signed-occam-KRT16S-from-JWR66Y.d1b99704.zip

Instead of sideloading try pushing it to the phone manually then flashing it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmberry20:
Nope, not working. It just doesnt want to know.

I wonder if its the custom kernel? I'll try flashing the OEM one see if it makes a difference.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opssemnik:
it will not work, otas check for fils remember?.

hes using custom kernel so no work.

to upgrade to 4.4 download factory images of 4.4. extract and then u open image-occamikrt16s.zip(or whatever the name is), delete userdata.img and recovery.img, then u restart your n4 into fastboot mode, connect to pc, and run flash-all.boom, but u will need to re flash the kernel with a krt16s compatible one.

To some it happens the same thing?

If you try to wake the phone using the Home button while you move something on the screen, the N9005 power off.

Root with CF Auto Root

Please, help me
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragnarkov:
Weird. I tried replicating the video, with 1 thru 5 fingers moving all over before and during waking it up via the home button. Nada. Works exactly as it should no matter what I did.

So far I've been able to replicate zero of the issues people post on here with my phone. Either I'm extremely lucky, or there are a lot of unlucky people on here...

I bought this tablet on ebay for my daughter. But It came password locked and the guy that sold it on ebay does not remember the password.

I have tried multiple ways to boot it into recovery to do a hard reset:

- Volume Down + Power bottom

- Volume Up + Power Bottom

- Reset whole on the back.

BUT no recovery menu. It simply shows the funtab screen logo and then keeps booting up to the "enter password" screen.

There is got to be a way to recover from a forgotten password lock.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] drducttape:
Found it!

I was able to reset my funtab, after hours of searching and messing around with it. Never did find a real solution on the web, I stumbled upon this method just by messing around:

When the device boots up and is on the screen where you swipe your finger across the screen to unlock it, press in the bottom right corner to reveal the time and wifi status. Click on it again, it will reveal a larger menu with settings on the bottom. Click settings, the menu will disappear and it will look like nothing happened. Swipe your finger across the screen to unlock it and VOILA! the setting screen appears before you, scroll down to backup and reset ect. etc. you know the drill. Factory reset!

This may work for other challenging locked devices, let me know if it works for you.

I just wanted to say thank you for this thread. I tried your procedure, but I couldn't get the full settings to show up. "Zoodles" kept taking up the whole screen, and I didn't know the PIN to exit it (I bought the funtab used).

But, I did find another way to get to the settings. I plugged the Funtab into my computer via USB. When the Funtab booted up, it brought up a screen asking if I wanted to enable USB file transfer. From this screen, I could click on the time and bring up the full settings menu, which had the factory reset option.

I realize this thread's a couple of years old, but if I found it by googling, maybe the next person will too. Good luck!

[General Topics] GuestK00430:
I'd go with the ASUS, because of the Quad-Core Atom, 802.11n, 11hours Battery (with good usage), Windows 8.1 (for a tablet though), 32/64GB SSD storage (may be swappable, please get a hard drive, more storage), and Intel HD graphics.

However, it won't be too good with intensive gaming, it will work to some extent, e.g. presentations, movies, TV, web surfing, but gaming at €200 is gonna' be difficult, I just suggest getting a console, a pre-owned PS3 slim will set you back €120.
