there r not any command working as phone not connected to pc at all ...

yes i do use 4ext recovery .. i cant see option called smartflash .. i have no time for "if the rom success booting..." i need for sure that the rom works :/
[HTC Desire S] csifku:
is there not any other way instead of fastboot , to flash new boot.img ??? there should be another way around ??
[HTC Desire S] asgardr:
,,while you stubbornly try to remain on that particular rom,

..may yet try another- preferably the one previously installed on your device,

or the one your kernel `ll be able to pull,

eliminate-one by one- the probable causes of usb port

(or whatever it is ) malfunction

and the true enemy- in the end- will emerge...

you`ll not have to guess...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nightinjail:
i think im ****ed.. i would like opininos suggestions..im desperate right now lol sounds bad i know however

first :my power button does not seem to want to work anymore

secondly: i noticed there was a basband and firmware update and i downloaded mf1 and the modem

third: i went into my quick setings since my power buton is broken and clicked on recovery mode and clicked ok

fourth: i waited .. the little blue words appeared in the top left corner as usual, and then it says samsung galaxy s3 and hangs for a minute then shuts off and turns back on.. continuing the loop.

possiblly important infomation;

my battery level was only 24 percent and i think if i charge it up or try to get it to charge that it may work out

your probably wondering what i do when my phone dies ..

well i put it on the charger and it turns on and the charging screen pops up with the battery

then i unplug the phone and it boots up without me touching the power button .

any information will be apprciated thanks ahead of time

BTW the phone was purchased the first day it was released i think the warrenty is expired :P

THANKS :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
The same power button issue happened to me a few weeks ago. I found a YouTube video of a guy who demonstrated slamming his phone on a table to fix it. Now I know what your thinking sounds stupid but it worked for me. Hold your phone so the side with the power button is flat on the table (this is how it needs to land). Then lift it and slam it down. I used a mouse pad to cushion the impact. Took like 20 tries but its been good ever since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nightinjail:
i forgot to mention.. i was planning on letting the phone completely die and then giving it some juice to see if that breaks the loop or sends it into normal boot mode i dont have the screw driver small enough to unscrew the back, if i did do you think holding the power button on the board will break the loop?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nightinjail:
omfg .. You solved it .. It went straight into the recovery mode

thanks man!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
Awesome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nightinjail:
but it frezzes !!! And goes back into the loop wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
As I said it took me a few tries I also remember putting a crappy thumdrive under the mouse pad to get more impact on the button. Not sure how hard I did it. Oh and take your battery out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nightinjail:
OMFG THANKS MAN .. YOU REALLY.. JUST SAVED ME lol .. no idea how happy i am .. will post what i did incase someone else has this happen to them.

1. i panicked

2. banged the **** out of the side like instructed and was getting it into recovery mode ..

3. was trying to do a reboot system

3a. it froze and reset it self again forceing me to bang the hell out of it agian and agian

3b. more banging and more freezing

4. finally it let me reboot system and it turned on .. and now my power button seems to be working again

EPILOGUE: my basband and firmware are all out of date and would love to update them but seeing as how f-ed my galaxy is im afraid to even do that anyone have any suggestions? thanks freinds :D

may the force be with you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
Trust me I know the feeling. I had soft bricked my phone after I tried to downgrade from 4.3 (before the fix was found) right after I thought I found the solution my phone was doing the power loop. Scared the crap out of me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nightinjail:
can i update my firmware and baseband with odin ? or do you reccommend me downloading clockwork mod and using that instead of teamwin ? i want slim kat .. seems alot better then this 4.1.3 bull**** lol .. althought the bone stock rom was very very very trusty.

my next question is should i instal the firmware first hen the modem then the rom i want ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
I personally like twrp more. yes you can update that stuff with odin i think there are links in the development section. As long as you do a factory reset and dalvik format you should beable to flash whatever you want now. It is recommended to be on at least 4.1.2 modem for ROMs. If you flash the 4.3 modem make sure it is only the modem and not the full firmware. You will be on a locked bootloader if you do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
The basebands available to flash are zips flashable only through recovery. Have been for a while now.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OpTic NaTs:
I have looked through a plethora of forum posts and none of them seem to fix my problem so please forgive me if maybe I missed a post. I have a Sprint HTC One and I was running Viper One 3.5 (Android 4.3 w/ Sense 5.5) and I wanted to upgrade to 4.4 Kit Kat. I've found a couple ROMs that I liked and flashed no problem. They all had their issues that I couldn't live with so I looked for a more credible developer. I found a kit kat ROM from AOPK and ive been trying to flash it but I constantly keep getting errors. I am running TWRP 2.6.3.0. Here is what the errors look like:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

ROM Error:

"symlink: some symlinks failed"

"E: Error executing updater binary in zip /sdcard/...

"Error flashing zip"

GAPPS:

"file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop..."

"E: Error executing updater binary in zip"

"Error flashing zip"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

All of these errors are logged from one screen at one time. In other words, they aren't different errors i've been getting, they are from the same flash. This is just a brief description of the logged errors. I left out the sd card directories, etc. The reason I include the Gapps error is because on time when I flashed the ROM, it said successful but no log of anything happening so I went on to flashing Gapps and got the error above. If anyone can help that would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you so much for your help and time. :good: Sorry for the long post, just trying to describe the entire problem so we can get a better/more precise solution. THANKS! :D

You are in the wrong forum, this is for the original 7" tab. But, if you can get a md5 for the firmware you might be able to find it on google.

You jacked up your video and your information SGH-I537 cannot use auto-root due to the locked bootloaders and you called it the SGH-I337 which is the S4 normal.

Thank you

It really works for me, I have the S4 Active SGH-i537 from telcel and i tested on my phone, at first i thought that my phone was bricked, but I let it to boot and it installed the supersu.

Its Great, just the only thing that you need is to deal with the Knox.

Hello. Not sure if this is the correct section or not. But here goes.

I was running rootbox 4.2.2 and kt747 kernel. Along with baconatorx something script to apply settings to second core. I was getting roughly 3 to 4 hours screen on time. Great!

Recently I installed slimbean 4.3.1 after hearing so many people say it has the best battery life. With the according 4.3 kt747 kernel. I applied the same tweaks etc but at best I can get 2 hours of screen on time. Maybe there is a new script I'm unaware of.

I use my phone frequently but not heavily. Just phone calls SMS and abit of chrome. Can anyone give me some advice. Or someone with some working settings with the combo I have? Or should I just go back to what I had?

Any help would be great.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Anyone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
See my posts on this page for my set and the battery life I am getting. Maybe these could help you:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1969201&page=386
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Thanks. Just tried out your settings on my setup with the badass gov and slightly more under clock. And that's all you done?

I'm on 34% and only 1 hour 25 min screen on time.

And its 3rd on the list in battery stats.

I might be wrong but should cell stand by and phone idle be on top for battery usage? This is driving me nuts I have to carry my damn charger during the day.

I will report back after a few cycles.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
What I am putting down below are purely from my view and my observations over the past few years.

There could be multiple issues:

1. Your battery might be getting old. On 2.8 I set the record at a whopping 7 hours display time (battery less than 6 months old). On the same ROM I was getting barely 2-3 hours (battery near to or over 18 months old) a few days before I flashed 4.1. So when I got 3h45m today, I consider that a pretty good battery.

2. You signal levels at home, the areas you roam, and at your work/school. These too kill more. Example, battery discharges slowly (when idle) at home compared to when I am at work cos of low signal levels at my work place.

3. Maybe there are too many background apps.

Example: Kik, Facebook, Google Plus. These are known battery hogs. You either uninstall these or freeze them when not needed. Your battery will thank you.

4. Kernels don't suit every phone. What works for me might not work for you. Example: Kernel of 2.8 people loved. But for me it drained battery crazy. I used Kernel C of prior version of ROM. Try out multiple, but give atleast 3 days to validate each.

5. Most importantly, do no UC too much. A phone spending 10 seconds at 1000 MHz could need 30 seconds at 800 MHz to get the same task done, and this could actually drain your battery more. For me, after using multiple phones on multiple ROMs, I found speeds between 800-1200 quite satisfactory. This is the reason my clock is normally set to 1000 as max.

6. I barely UV. UVing a little aggressively might seem to extend battery a little, but in the process it kills the phone processors and other parts. This is because they are getting strained working with lower currents than recommended. Also it is a normal practice to actually send a little more than needed currents to phone processor to avoid phone being shut off.

Our devs here who make kernels already reduce the voltage to sustainable levels to improvise on the kernel. This is also one reason why I don't bother about UVing any more.

Sorry about being lengthy and boring :victory:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Lengthy but not boring at all. ill try to add some more info on my phone and its setup.

1. my phone is less then 6 months old. 2.8 what? kernel version? 7 hours id poop a brick. lol

2. my signal strengths haven't changed at home or at work. I work outside lol however at home i do have a mountain behind me. literally a cliff side and i always got half signal since i got the phone.

3. i got the background stuff kicked. got greenify running and i have it hibernating just about everything it will let me.

4. ok this brings me back to what i was thinking originally. maybe i should just go back to what i had with rootbox 4.2.2 + kt747 kernel and scripts.... was trying to avoid this lol. 4.3 must just not jive with my phone.

5. i do have my voltages under volted 50 across the board. i have had the odd random reboot. my clocks were always either 1.2 or 1.0 ghz. never did oc or uc too much.

i will set my voltages back to stock after a few cycles.

also i run fs trim. supposed to stop lag or something. i been running it on all my devices so i figured i may as well follow suit with my s3. i also renamed mpdesion.

my standby time is still good. ill get 2 days on weekends when im not using phone much. but screen time is still less then 2 hours.

i just finished the first full charge with what u recommended. so lets see. heading out for 10 hours here soon. lets see how it does!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
My bad! All my references to ROM or kernel versions pertains to Intergalatic ROM and its kernels. Sorry, I should've mentioned that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Thanks for your time. I've tried your settings for a few cycles. 3+ hours battery. And 2 days total. Not bad!

I have a question. I'm reading on that intergalactic ROM, and it says about certain bootloaders. One is non reverse able or something. I've read on it and I can't figure out what one to use. My phone is on telus if that means anything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
I used the first one (reversible):

Option A: MJ2 bootloader and MJB modem
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Thanks man. I downloaded the mj2 boot loader and mjb modem package. Do I flash this prior to the ROM? And say I choose to go back to slimbean, do I have to do anything to reverse this?

Sorry I just never had to do this on my nexus 7 or ace Android devices . I just wanna make sure I cover all bases. I kinda miss a two based ROM and after hearing your success with battery on it. Its obvisouly the ROM and kernel combo for me. Games I could care less about, I use my phone for texting Facebook and browser. And I go long periods without access to charger.

Thank you so much for all your assistance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
Yes. Following the same sequence of steps mentioned there. I too did the same.

And rest assured, once you are on this, I don't see a reason you'd even want to go back :)

Until this release neither we had to do all this boot loader thingy. But with the latest release Samsung did something that created all this mess.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Hey. When I try to flash the boot loader and modem zip it gives me a error in twrp saying it can't load the zip.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
1. Try updating your TWRP.

2. Try downloading the zip again, and verify the zip.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Thanks. This wasn't my issue. I needed the i747m boot loader mk5. Intergalactic thread op directed me to it in the s3rx thread.

About to install here soon, backing up and doing a nandroid just incase.. Im going to go With kt kernel and your simple adjustments.

I see u were using 1 15 kernel. I got 1 18. Shouldn't make a difference?

What are u getting now for screen time?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
That was very dangerous. Sorry, I too should've asked. Had it gone through, you could've ended up bricking your phone. Whew! Missed by a whisker!

And I flashed 1.15. I am not sure of 1.18 'cos I haven't installed it. But newer version should be better.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ronedogg:
Hey!

So I ended up leaving that tw ROM for now. I made a nandroid so I will try it again.

But I'm here to report my new setup and battery stats.

I'm running slimkat rc2 with the latest ktoonsez kernel.

I'm using your settings in ktweaker but I ended up back on koonservative gov and enabled hotplugging.

7h screen on time. WiFi on the whole time. Browsing forms reading emails.

Do I need to post a screenshot for proof? Or does it really matter lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] diablo009:
We are all so used to getting good battery, it hardly matters anymore, unless someone posted a hard-to-believe 10 hours on stock battery.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobtheTechGuy:
Hello world, I have a samsung Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T210R 8GB. I have already rooted and installed TWRP custom recovery. The 4.1.2 thats on this tablet feels a bit dated and I was wondering if there is a stable build of kitkat that would work on this tab?

If not, whats the best rom you would recommend? I would like to overclock my chip to around 1.5ghz for a smidge more performance, and want a nexus like experience. I don't really care about touchwhiz, I want this tablet to perform at its best.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burgeke:
Nope not yet. There is work in this and the development forum on a CM build but it isn't ready for daily use. As an alternative and a very good base of 4.1.2 without all the bloat, I use RocketTab from [MENTION=5598412]tempdroid[/MENTION]. See the development forum for more details.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobtheTechGuy:
cool thanks.

now for another id10t error. I wasnt paying enough attention in twrp recovery and accidentally erased the entire os in a full wipe. I tried loading rockettab rom from the sd card but I guess that isnt the full android because my tablet got stuck at the Samsung splash screen, I even let it sit there for a good half hour to make sure it wasn't still loading. but it stuck at that screen.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burgeke:
Humm... As I recall, there are two files for RocketTab. Full and Light. You have to load Light first and then if you are interested in the apps from the Full file, load it over top. I'm wondering if you went right to Full first which isn't the full OS.

Can you mount the SD and copy the right file over while in TWRP (I'm not familiar with TWRP).

[MENTION=5598412]tempdroid[/MENTION] has a support thread in this forum too.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tempdroid:
I personally suggest CWM touch recovery from [MENTION=3034891]gr8nole[/MENTION], everything seems to work well there.

If you have a T210R, then the RocketTab3.0.zip should be enough. Doing a full wipe before is a good idea.

Did you verify md5 checksum of the file. Initial booting takes some minutes but you should not get stuck.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobtheTechGuy:
yep you nailed it. thats exactly what happened. Thanks for your quick replies. I shall load the lite version and get this tablet back on the up and up again.

I got a really good feeling about this forum already.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobtheTechGuy:
I will try that on this next attempt.

on a side note, has anyone tried overclocking this tablet? Im not expecting much but if I could bump the 1.2 ghz up to a more respectable 1.5 GHZ I would hope that might make things feel just a tad more snappier. \

this tablet is leaps and bounds behind my LG G2 in performance and screen quality. I got spoiled on that snapdragon 800 chipset
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tempdroid:
Not that I know of. Try RocketTab and make up your mind again. It will become much more usable, but please don't compare to the G2, it's not fair ;)
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobtheTechGuy:
HOLY COW! Just got rocket tab running and this tablet is really noticeably faster! You guys are totally awesome. I respect you for not treating me like **** just for being a new member and giving me the correct answers to help me. I was having buyers remorse with this tablet, but now I think its pretty darned good.
