While HALO is not dead, it's not here yet. That gerrit patch (gerrit it's for testing it before commiting it to github) explicitly says that while the forward-port (the older HALO version, 1.0 if you want to call it that), does not work correctly on the current ParanoidAndroid 4.0 state.

[MENTION=4995415]Chirag_Galani[/MENTION]

Also, here is the "Hybrid UI" (basically, ParanoidPreferences, that is now

deprecated

), you can cherry-pick it. But be warned, there is a bug with "rendering" going on (read the comments before trying it).

but how to install other rom? when recovery dont working (black screen)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p2daz:
Ok, I've got a dead S2, showing the Black screen of Death, I can get into Download Mode though.

I have tried flashing new roms and Pit Files with ODIN but whilst everything seems to be working to a point when it just hangs - possibly where it is starting to write to NAND.

I've tried different leads, different versions of Odin, Different PC's different roms etc, spent 2 days trying allsorts basically to no avail.

I have ordered a JIG to see if it helps but don't hold much hope out..

I think the NAND is screwed and needs a JTAG visit.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
JTAG won't work, and what's a jig going to do when you can already get into download mode ? (that's what a jig does; gets you into DL mode) Replace motherboard (give you've tried all the stuff you say you've tried and it hasn't worked) or new phone.

Edit - If it were me though, I'd find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread & try the stuff in the thread over & over given I'd be likely looking at a new phone anyway I.E it can't hurt to try.

I have a stock 4.3 d2vzw, Some how my friend tried to root and unlock the bootloader with ez unlock 1.2. Now the phone is "qhsusb dload" - hard brick. I tried over 20 hrs+ with micro sd tricks. It didn't work. Any one help!! Please help, anybody? Or only JTAG can help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] david_hume:
If you can access ODIN mode, then there's a script that fixes bricks like that. Look around the VZW Galaxy S3 threads.

And if you actually read around, people kept telling others that the bootloader is locked. So trying to use EZ Unlock is a BIG NO. That's why it bricked.

If you stuck to stock Android 4.1.2, then there would be no issue with using EZ Unlock. But since you're on stock Android 4.3, that's a big no. You'll definitely get bricked like the way you are right now.

Bricked after trying ez unlock.....garbage!!!...

I have tried the sd card method on this phone multiple times...i have even tried placing all the debrick image files directly into the root of the sd card...tried multiple brand sd cards with no luck!!! thanks alot ez unlocker...may need to change the name to ez bricker!!! Oh and as far as telling people about "reading around"...no where did I see when reading about this ez unlock any mention of it bricking devices on 4.3! Are there any debrick files that anyone on here has used to unbrick this thing or what? As of right now...the phone is hardbricked to the point that odin doesn't recognize it...any ideas or help maybe using linux ...a nice step by step would be cool! thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] david_hume:
First of all, you're not supposed to even try to unlock the boot loader if you accepted the 4.3 OTA. The reason your phone got bricked was because you tried to unlock the boot loader after getting the 4.3 OTA. Don't blame the EZ unlock app for your mistakes.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581166

A link by Spyro for you in case you can't access the boot loader or ODIN mode at all. If you're able to get into ODIN mode, Pagel has a thread that explains how to fix that too. All you have to do is look.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] az-dave:
OK..I was DEAD in the water. Spent the last 2 days trying to un-brick the phone.

Samsung S3, VZW i535, Rooted, partially un-bloated, and unlocked until !@$#! upgraded itself to Android 4.3 (#@!%$!#%@#$%@#$%@#$)

Unwittingly while trying to do a full Nandroid backup of the system, I ran across a problem which looked like it needed to be unlocked again. Upon unlocking it still worked, until I attempted the CWM recovery backup - Instant Black Screen power off.

Unresponsive to Power. Unresponsive to Power+Home+Vup - Unresponsive to Power+Home+Vdn. Not visible to ODIN or to USB...it would have a red-light when plugging in ISB for about 5 mins, then red light off. No vibration, no flicker of the screen, nothing. 100% UNResponsive phone.

I attempted a Jog - No Dice. Forget it.

I attempted to use WinDisk32 to create an image of "Verizon_Galaxy_S_3_Debrick.img" to the SD Card from the video of the kid thats 10:22 long, and his second video thats 12+ min long. Nope. Nada (I attempted at least 20 times)

His video ONLY works from pre 4.3 upgraded phones. He spent so much time doing that video he should add the extra link to the other debrick.bin file and he would be a guru!!! hehe

Attempted a few other thing as well since I now was sure it was fully hard-bricked FUBAR.

Then I kept thinking to myself that it must have something to do with Android 4.3 and its bootloader...came here again and found this thread which lead me to the "After 4.3 upgrade" file of "Debrick.bin" - Used WinDisk32 to the SAME SD card, stuck it in, stuck battery in, and worked first time.

Can Only boot with SD card in phone for time being but hey, im 100% up. And I also can make the SD card back to its full 16GB using SDFormatter - free on the net.

Thank you all.

note: I think we need a new term: "Hard-Soft-Bricked" - reason is that if the power buttons still send a signal to the board to attempt a boot from the CD Card, then its technically still responsive, we just cant see that its responsive. Unlike a total hard-brick that isnt really doing anything from the buttons at all and only responds to a powered JTAG attempt.

here's what is on the apps page on rootzwiki <----- idk if im spelling it right

Since I know a lot of people do not thoroughly read threads or posts, I am again posting my warning at the bottom of the OP:

***Admin Edit*** - This app has not been updated since 2012 and does not work on any bootloaders since the ML1 4.3 OTA. If you have taken the 4.3 OTAs of ML1 or NC1 or the 4.4.2 OTA of NE1, do not download and try to use this app to unlock your bootloader. You will hard brick your device. The app is no longer even available on the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] omer620:
Dont ever try ez unlocker

Exactly same problem was with me. tried unlocking bootloader of SCH-I535 and got it HARD BRICKED

SD card tricks wont work. The only solution is JTAG. My device remains at the repairing shop for 3 MONTHS. it goes from shop after shop and another shop... and after 3 months i get it back. and still its Wifi was not working and also the network signals drop frequently
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaintJohnPublic:
lets give some tips for feature tries if u on 4.3+ dont bother trying to unlock u wont only brick trust me ive tried

1 never ever erase your modem or boot partion if u do u cant reboot u phone into download mode hard bricked send it in to get fixed

think only way fix it in this state is bootloader already unlocked lol so if locked forget trying does no good

im on 4.4.2 stock bootloader still locked can be rooted easy useing odon it works but u cant do upgrades ota after rooted so be happyy with your changes cause there whay u set it stays problem with customs id the google store apps dont all work like google camery my fav dont work on alot them stock works grat so far no custom beats 4.4.2 yet cept in maybe promtness but got bugs in stor and camera cant go with my cam or music google store are a must

Above it is stated that the sdcard debrick images do not work. If that is true in your case the only option available may be a jtag service.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
No, this app did not make your mobile dead. You not doing the proper research and reading before trying to use this app made your mobile dead. Your fault not the fault of the app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eh1san:
bro shouldn't this app give a warning popup message to user when we open this app that "don't try this app on Android 4.4.2 this app will brick your phone" :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
In the app? Nope. The app has long since been removed from the Play Store. Also, the original place this app was distributed has a bright red warning indicating users on 4.3 and 4.4.2 should not use it:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/32456-ap...lock-your-bootloader-pre-43-bootloaders-only/

Edit: I'm referring to "EZ Unlock" btw. Any app by any other name, even a slight deviation in spelling, is not the original app to unlock the bootloader on a VZW S3 on 4.1.2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
Yep, like Snoop wrote, there are warnings in red print all over the only place from which you can get the app. I know because I was the Admin who put the warnings there in the thread at that site.

want to verify bootloader unlock

I used "towelroot" on my Verizon S3 SCH-I535, version 4.4.2 successfully, and ran EZ-Unlock 1.2 which was also seems to be successful, since I was able to proceed after hearing "that was easy." At the top of the screen displayed "unlocked." My goal is to install CWM, but was not successful. When I boot into recovery mode, I have a screen stating: Android system recovery <3e>

KOT49H.I535VRUDNE1

The droid is pictured laying on his back with a Red caution Triangle, with the words "No command" below.

At the bottom of the screen it shows:

# MANUAL MODE #

-- Appling Multi-CSC...

Applied the CSC-code : VZW

Successfully applied multi-CSC.

I have read in many places for many days trying to find a similar situation to mine, but it seems all others have 'bricked.' Could it have made a difference that this S3 is no longer in service and the SIM card is out? How can I verify if the bootloader is unlocked? I ask advise on how to proceed.... cautiously.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Read the sticky in development section for NE1 baseband.

Also you have a soft brick, follow the soft brick repair guide on that sticky with the appropriate NE1 stock rom.

Don't use ez unlock again, it will brick the phone, you're lucky it isn't hard bricked for whatever reason.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wong Numba:
Thanks for the reply; Bad Username.

The S3 still boots and operates ok, it's just the recovery screen seems to be waiting for a command or update. Never had a chance to make a backup of the Rom; which is what I was doing. So, I may need to find one.
[Nexus 5 General] Soulfly3:
Total noob to the Nexus line... owned MANY phones, and just came from iphone 5, then SG3, and this phone absolutely tunes them all. Best phone Ive ever owned, and a customer for life.

Coming from the S3, I have to say... (and the point of this thread is the SINGLE thing you love the most ---- but make it ORIGINAL... see my example)

The SINGLE best thing about my N5, is that my screen doesn't come on after I receiver EVERY. SINGLE. SMS. It was quite possibly the most annoying and infuriating thing about my S3. drove me nuts from day one. such a useless feature and w the amount of SMS i receive, a total waste of battery.

How does this have anything to do with this thread? Cheap is a relative term, you're right the nexus really isn't a "cheap" device, its quite good quality. But in comparison to other similar devices it is a VERY low priced device.

My single favorite thing about the N5 specifically is probably the sheer speed and smoothness, its so gratifying to use the phone even for just basis tasks. Most of my other "favorites" about the N5 could probably be applied to the whole nexus line in general.
[Nexus 5 General] ozzmanj1:
I would have to agree with Pizza_Dox, we both came from the Xperia PLAY forum. Of course the single best thing about the XP was the dedicated built-in game controller. The N5 is so freaking fast and smooth on everything I throw at it... so Performance... hands down.

I know it's only one thing but I gotta say a second one. It's nice to have the newest android version. On the play I was constantly flashing Roms because of being stick on ginger bread

The thing I like most about the N5 is not having to root it to make it a functional, stable device. It is a great device to run stock and that also has a lot to do with how far Google has come with Android.

The other thing I love about the device is that it removes the feeling that I must upgrade to another device when something else comes out. I have never kept a phone more then a year but the N5 might actually change this for me. I think I might go another year and see what 2015 brings to the table.
