I searched the other posts regarding not booting into recovery, but couldn't find one that matched my issue.

I rooted my verizon samsung GS4 yesterday. Long story short I think I deleted something I wasn't suppose to. At first I was able to boot into recovery mode, but now every time I try it will only boot into download mode. I've tried:

1. Up volume, home, power

2. Restart, up volume

and

3. rebooting from CWM

It always goes into download mode.

I've read a few posts that say flashing with Odin might work, but not sure what file to flash with. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

And you're sure you were able to get into recovery before? If so, you would be the first.

As of right now, there is NO recovery for MJ7. No Safestrap. No reverting back to an earlier build. No ROMs. Only root.

Install (flash) Original ROM

Hi, epeterse

I had the exact problem like yours, after I've tried to install custom recovery TWRP. What you need is to flash(install) the Original ROM using Odin.

w w w. dkszone.net/flash-odin-dl09-firmware-rom-samsung-android-phone

I understand that you have Verizon I545VRUEMJ7. You can download original rom at

w w w. sammobile . com / firmwares /

but you'll need to register to download it.

Use this youtube video to flash ROM. You'll need to unzip it so it'll have .tar extension.

w w w. youtube . com / watch?v=yEJSv9MrVAg

After you install the Official ROM you'll be able to start the factory recovery. Custom doesn't work on I545VRUEMJ7, because nobody can unlock the bootloader yet. Good luck

P.S. Sorry for stretched links, they do not allow to place links for new users, you'll have to fix them
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan2202:
So yesterday I was attempting to play with some ROMs on my phone, and tried a couple of the Google Edition KitKat ROMs. The install process went normally, but after bootup, both ROMs I tried were giving an error repeatedly for com.android.phone after the phone booted up. So I OK'd through the error messages whenever it would pop up, and eventually force closed through app manager, and put the phone into airplane mode so it would stop popping up so I could check out the ROM. Volume was working at the time because I remember notification sounds while I was messing around. Once I had my fun, I went back into CWM, wiped, and restored to my normal ROM which is PAC Man 4.2.2. Restore process seemed to go fine.

Now this morning I attempted to turn on Pandora as I was getting ready for work, and it kept auto forwarding through each song and was acting weird. So I tried Google Play Music, and it force closed and gave a DSP Manager not responding error. So I tried Apollo, and same thing happened. Rebooted a few times, tried to reinstall DSP, Music, and Apollo, and the same thing was happening. I also noticed I had no notification sounds and if I try to change my sounds, I cant hear the preview. Finally, if I try to make a call by clicking on the Phone icon, I can see my call history, contacts, etc, but if I try to call out, the screen goes black. The call does go through though, but there is nothing on the screen and I cant hear anything.

So I went back to an even older restore I had saved, and even a STOCK GS4 rooted restore I had, and the problems persisted. So for the hell of it, I tried to restore back to stock unrooted image but then I remembered I couldnt because of Knox, and the phone got stuck in download mode while trying to ODIN. Eventually I was able to get back to my latest restore of PAC Man but the problems persist.

What could the issue be? Its happening no matter what ROM Im using. But I do not think its a hardware problem or I likely wouldnt have all the quirky things happening on the phone apps (I dont think?). Is there something in the firmware or bootloader that would make the volume/phone functions not work? When it got stuck in ODIN download mode could that have screwed something up? Any help is apprecated.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
I dunno if u void ur warranty but i think yes, but this isnt important now (take a look in your download mode knox 0x0 (ok) or knox 0x1(void). I think the best u can do:

- Download one ROM (flashable in RECOVERY) that no **** ur warranty if ur KNOX still 0x0 (in the case KNOX is 0x1, download any good rom for your device)

- Copy it to your External SD card

- Go to CUSTOM RECOVERY

- Wipe all

- Install the .zip file

- Enjoy! :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan2202:
I already know the warranty is voided and I'm not concerned with the Knox stuff, I've already been through all that. I accidentally upgraded to 4.3 bootloader in the past but thankfully had a custom recovery already installed so I'm OK with that. I'm just trying to figure out what may have caused the volume and app issues and how to resolve.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan2202:
Any other ideas? I'd really like to avoid getting a new phone that might have Knox installed out of the box and be stuck with a stock phone.

I bought a carbon fiber back from eBay. Blocks my phone signal wifi signal and GPS signal like crazy. I thought only metal back will block phone signals, this is new to me. Has anybody had similar experience? It's a pity because I really like this back. The carbon fiber surface makes the phone much easier to grab.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] bnb25:
yep I bought one, but i got mine from amazon. it blocks signals also.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmrlayzie:
My Nexus 5 16Gb is draining my battery to 50% during standby after use.

After charging at 100% I would wake up with my phone less than 50%.

Checked battery issues and it says that WiFi is draining the battery.

Any ideas?

I have tried turning wifi off, factory reset, and its stock. Got it a few days ago.

SUGGESTIONS WILL HELP!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenichi:
Please post a screenshot of the Battery Usage section of your phone if you get a chance.

You may want to Factory Flash a whole new stock image. There isn't much to dissect right now cause there isn't much information provided.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b.spec:
Including screenshots of your battery usage would be helpful =) But I guess for starters I would go into Settings > Wi-Fi > Advanced Wi-Fi and uncheck "Scanning always available". This will prevent your device from constantly scanning for available networks, which it would do even if you turned wifi off.

That's pretty significant battery drain, so your problems sound worse than just that.

Then it's I guess a app, which is holding the phone awake, so it can't go into deepsleep.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenichi:
It may be a cause. It may also be Wifi Scanning feature within the phone as stated earlier. I am not quite sure with this situation. I'd watch your app usage with a third party battery stats app such as GSam Battery Monitor. It could be possible wakelocks.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snoman002:
So I'm stuck with an endless attempt to download the OTA from yesterday. The problem is, when the OTA tries to install CWM pops up and stops the install. Here is the rub, due to overscan I cannot see the options in CWM so I am unsure if the last few characters of the one option I can see is what I need. All I can see is ...untrusted.zip (or very similar). Is this the option I want to select to install the OTA?

I understand I will loose CWM, I'm OK with that.

I do have stop updates selected in the mod collection, but it still tries to download, incessently I might add, basically making the ouya unusable. To bad actually as I don't need the update, but it started before I had the stop updates selected and now it won't seem to go away.

Unfortunately as well the play store mod slowed my Ouya down to a crawl. Even with the overclock sonic CD is horribly slow, as is menu navigation. Because of this I want the OTA to go through (and might hard reset afterwards for good measure) and worse case I have to push the few files I want/need manually.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDD123:
I have the same problem so read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2462298
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snoman002:
Good news then.

You installed the "...untrusted...zip" for the update I assume? I have only used CWM a few times, and I know it usually has some + signs or something like that, between the actual options. But not being able to see the left couple inches of screen makes me lery of just clicking the one I can see.
[Ouya Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snoman002:
Got the update flashed.

I flashed the ...untrusted zip. Progress continued a bit then CWM popped up another option, also unsure what this said, I just clicked back at which point the install finished.

The update took and root and SU were preserved. I am unsure why this happened as I did NOT have 'preserve' checked in the mod collection. The play store was broken, and unfortunately still is.

Sad to say I went to hard reset this thing and go back to square one, too bad that's such a pain in the arse. I suppose I could use CWM to do it, except I can see any of the options in CWM.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Hidden92:
Most of you may have noticed that the DK30 Docking Station is extremely overpriced and according to most reviews also far from perfect.

A few days ago I found a cheap dock on eBay and today it arrived, so i decided to tell you about it.

http://www.ebay.de/itm/200994826270 (german eBay, but since it has worldwide shipping it should be for sale on other countries eBay, too)

What I can say about it:

- It does what it should, it charges the phone without problem (A phone with a case should fit too, however it didn't charge when I used my case, but the original dock seems to have the same problem according to amazon reviews)).

- The angle is perfect for a nightstand or a table.

- It charges when connected to a PC (well at least when it's connected to my PC, some Amazon reviewers said the original Version won't charge when connected to a PC)

- The cable is detachable which means you can use a cable of any length, unlike the original dock where the cable is fixed to the dock (you need your own cable, the one that comes with the dock is for what I will explain next (it's too short for charging use))

- You can use the dock while connecting the phone to the PC. The dock has an additional USB-Slot where you can plug in a cable to connect to your phones USB-slot. (I guess the cable that comes with the dock is intended for this, although it's too short to have it connected to the phone while it stands in the dock)

- It's light, you will lift the dock if you take out the phone without pushing the dock down (the same problem exists with the original dock), but at least the rubber of the "feet" will keep the dock from moving around when working with the phone

Conclusion:

It has no disatvantages to the original dock (except for the delivery time maybe), rather it actually has some advantages and it only costs 1/4 of the original dock.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luka321:
Hello all

This is sort of a question for finding a solution for my Samsung Galaxy S. I have been using xda for a couple of years now, as all of us for rooting and putting custom roms on our devices so they would be better and quicker. So after all this time i realy dont have time to mess around with custom roms and i would like to install one good stock rom with maybe a good kernel (to reduce the lag etc..) and have a solid stable device.

I have a stock rom now its a GT_I9000_XWJW5_XDJV1_OXXJVC_Sbl with a CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS kernel, and the problem is im getting all kinds of self reboots sometimes, and big lags issues, and when i start the device i have some strange let say lines and shapes like it broken, but after a sec or two they desapire. So the final question is could someone recommend me a good stock rom and a kernel so i can finaly leave my device alone and not touch anything on it roms wise again!

Thank you!

Regards!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
over a period of time, all Devices will have this problem as accumulated installations/uninstalltions, app data, downloads etc will have left over junk, that needs to be cleaned out.

Best way to resolve this is to move everything in your SD card to PC. than format SD card, than reinstall latest ROM for your region and copy bac whatever data that you will use and keep rest in your PC or delete.

Prior to flashing, full wipes and a factory reset would be best.

Its the same as the version in the latest 290 firmware which is the last one with the zombie mask.

Not too sure if you can install it normally tho.

You may have to install it manually by replacing the apk in /system/app with this one and that requires full root.

I have the same version pre-installed and even if I delete it from /system/app, reboot and try again, install would still fail :p

Then hand it to a friend and say "hey, check out this new mirror app..." :D

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nemi5150:
So I have been trying to decide if the micro-stutter I get with my LG G2 V980 is just my hyper sensitivity or if my phone has more than other people's, since many people say it is super smooth. I rooted my phone the other day so that I could side load the tethering app and change the CPU governer from ondemand to interactive using Trickster MOD. I did not benchmark my phone before this, which I should have, but subjectively my does appear faster.

However, I still have some micro-stutter. Not too bad, but there none the less. This got me thinking of TRIM. I know that a new phone that has most of its memory free should not need to be trimmed yet. But for ****s and grins I downloaded lagfix and ran it anyway. It is really too early to tell if it made much difference, but the little I have used my phone since then have been promising.

And this got me thinking - what if some people had trim issues with the phones when they got them? We don't really know what LG has done with some of these phones before we got them, right? I downloaded AndroBench form the play store and ran a microbenchmark. From what I understand, the Random Write speeds are the ones that usually cause a ton of lag/micro stutter in phones. I did not run it before I ran lagfix, but I thought I would post my results now and ask others what they are getting. Especially people that think they have 'stutter' issues. Can you run an AndroBench micro benchmark and post your results?
