when I dirty flashed this over the sprint variant I had no issues with MMS, then I clean flashed to fix something else and now MMS doesn't work. Did you do a clean or dirty flash?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] btvolta:
Clean flashed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] comptonhubbard:
could be something going on with clean flashing...I'm going to clean flash back to sprint and then dirty back to this and see if that fixes it.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grahameaddicott:
My girlfriend dropped her Moto G in a sink full of water. It's now not working.

When I switch on the Phone, I see the Motorola logo, and then the start up animation (rotating planet thing).

After this all I see is a black screen (The phone is clearly on though).

When I plug the phone into a computer, nothing happens.

Phone was taken to a repair shop-guy didn't know how to repair it, but said there was no signs of water damage.

I have used the 'external factory reset' procedure. After this the phone switched on and went as far as the 'welcome' screen you see when you first buy the phone, however I was then bombarded with a looping series of error messages (clock has failed, calender has failed, phone has failed etc).

Switched the phone off and on again, only to be back at my original problem-a black screen.

Can anyone help?

Answers in plain English without techno-babble will be very appreciated
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenjou_89:
i am having the exact same problem! though ive already unlocked the bootloader to be able flash any other crom. i hope someone replies a solution..
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Okay, so.. Excuse me in advance if I'm in the wrong section of the forums, because this is the only Exhibit section I can find.. And also excuse me for the length of this post, as my problem is a bit detailed.

Long story short, I had issues with my texts not being received. I tried wiping the phone and re-rooting (using root-stock found on this website - I can link if need be?).. Anyway, I went so far as to do a factory data wipe, which clearly wasn't a very good idea (I'm a bit new at this root business)..

Anyway, I ended up to the point where I'd reach the Android Setup Wizard, and start to go through it and it would crash.. Upon reboot, the phone would completely freeze at the second "SAMSUNG" logo (the white lettering). After this, I tried using odin to just flash the stock ROM to the phone via the PC, but neither the PC nor odin actually "see" the phone. (I have the drivers, but PC reads the phone as "USB Hub" for some reason) I moved on to other things...

I used bluetooth to put cwm and root-stock back onto the internal memory after removing my external SD card, and flashed cwm no problem. Everything was going well, and it even said it installed the root-stock (I did a data wipe beforehand).. Upon reboot, I now reach "Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G" logo, and it continually reboots in a loop. I can still access recovery mode, but I don't want to proceed any further without some outside input, considering I don't fully understand what's going on.

I'm aware that the phone seems to be "soft-bricked," because before I flashed cwm and root-stock, it was "working" in terms of being able to receive calls (and make them, after opening the contacts from inside a call), as well as send and receive texts via the notification bar. But the weirdest thing is, before I went the route of re-flashing the root/cwm, it wouldn't show me a homescreen of any kind, I couldn't use my menu button, and my home button was pointless to touch because it went nowhere. It was just a black screen (not a background, but completely black void) with a statusbar at the top.

Anyway, I'm currently stuck in a boot-loop and I'm very curious if there's any way I can fix this phone without using odin, because the phone isn't recognized by it or a PC, so I'm stuck using the device itself to do things. I'm VERY hopeful that someone takes the time to read this and offer any input they can, because I'm currently without a device and I have no means of getting another phone at the moment.

Thanks in advance for reading this, and for any input that you guys have to offer. Hopefully some day I'm not so noobish at this >.<
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Dvarl:
Ok, I know you've said you wiped but try this then reboot. In CWM wipe data/cache and under advanced wipe dalvik. Also if you have a working CWM you can flash rooted community ROM or flash to stock found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1686384 scroll down till you see them. But wipe 3x don't know why some people need to but try it.

Note: a working cwm can flash any custom ROM with root pre-installed and you should be fine if you wipe the three I mentioned 3x format system under mounts and storage and format internal sd works wonders too.

If you need more help feel free to send me a pm
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
If I do a format of system or internal SD, I won't lose the ROM or CWM off of the system storage? If I lose these, I have no way of putting them back on the phone because I was doing it via bluetooth and the phone doesn't boot in order to do that anymore - The same applies to using a different ROM, sadly >.<

Also, I've already wiped the dalvik and cache several times, because that was the only way I could make the phone boot into a mode I could access anything at all on previous to installing the root again. I haven't tried doing this again as of yet, but I will do so and report back.

Just some extra information, because it wouldn't allow me to do so (being new and having to wait):

When I rebooted after the format (to the original stock rom/recovery, and even from recovery) it gave an "invalid argument" for /preload, saying it was unable to be accessed. It also said it couldn't access tmb/csc/system.. I'm unsure what these actually are, but I'm under the impression they may be at the route of my problem. Will formatting repair or otherwise help with these items being unable to be accessed?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jfbs:
Formatting internal will get rid of ROM, but not recovery. You'll be fine if you wipe system and reboot (ed: need to install a rom before reboot).

Try putting your ROM.zip on your external before wiping internal by mounting USB storage and copy ROM to external, then wipe internal and install ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Formatting system (twice) didn't help anything at all - Still gets stuck at Exhibit logo and reboots after about 30 seconds.

Same thing with wiping dalvik/cache, even after 4-5 wipes of each. Should I be rebooting recovery after each of these?

I can't mount usb storage to PC, because PC doesn't recognize the device when I plug it in afterward (or even before mounting). It hasn't recognized the device for quite some time, but it used to act as if it were plug & play when I purchased it, and even well into the time it was rooted. A few months back, I installed the drivers for it (found via Google and ultimately this website), which didn't help it recognize the device. It only recognizes the device when in the "MTP" mode, which allows me to access and transfer data without issues(and I can't do this without being able to access the phone to turn it on ). Otherwise, it says "USB Device Not Recognized - One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it"

I already have the ROM on my PC, but without any means of transfer back to the phone, removing it from internal storage would mean I have no physical way of accessing any ROM in order to restore my phone to working order. I'm at a loss as far as this is concerned, because I have the drivers installed. I'm unsure whether the phone itself is damaged, but I hope this isn't the case and that there's a way to resolve this issue directly.

My biggest concern isn't really the PC not recognizing the device, apart from needing it if I remove the ROM. My main concern is getting the thing to actually boot beyond the logos.. But if I remove the ROM, how will I put it back when it doesn't load to be able to bluetooth anything, and the PC doesn't recognize what it is?

EDIT -

I just realized something... Mounting USB storage doesn't seem to matter as far as moving the ROM, because I can just move them around via the external SD using CWM to flash them - But this is assuming that CWM will remain on the phone after formatting internal SD. Will it stay? If so, I'm going to try rooted community ROM, because the root-stock gives me the impression that it does nothing but apply root. The thread states "otherwise no changes to your phone," which implies (to me) that it doesn't actually include anything the phone needs in order to operate - It only changes certain things to apply root access... Not sure if this is true or not, but it would help explain what the heck is going on.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
OH MY GOD! YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!

Thank you SO, SO MUCH for helping me. My device is no longer a useless paperweight :good: :good: :good:

I wish I could click the "Thanks" button a thousand times!!

Just incase anyone else has this issue and is able to access notification bar, this is what I did from beginning to end, without all the nonsense between times:

1) Turn Bluetooth on

2) Transfer Clockworkmod via bluetooth to internal SD. ((Tip: Use a separate android device to do this, if PC isn't capable) If already installed skip to step 4)

3) Re-flashed Clockworkmod

4) Place Rooted Community ROM (found here) onto external SD and insert SD into device.

5) Boot device into Custom Recovery (CWM)

6) Wipe cache/dalvik (I did it 4-5 times, just to make sure it was clear)

7) Format system AND rom AND SDCard (internal ONLY - I did all 3 times just to be sure)

8) Flashed Rooted Community ROM from external SD card (it takes some time to install - It will say when completed)

9) Rebooted phone via Custom Recovery - When clicking this, be sure to select

NO

when it asks to fix the root. I clicked "YES" the first time and it DID NOT FIX THE PHONE. It got stuck in another boot-loop.

10) Initial boot took a bit longer than usual (which is normal), but afterwards, I no longer have a phone that's soft-bricked.

I just wanted to say THANK YOU GUYS VERY, VERY MUCH. You've saved my life by helping me sort through this! Very, very appreciative and I hope both of you have a wonderful day :good: :good: :D
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jfbs:
Good to know. I think you may have lost PNP from a windows update by samsung. To get that back, uninstall those drivers and look for 1.3.2410 or here if interested.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Still the same issue. Device isn't recognized with normal MTP (just plugging into the USB), and it acts as if I haven't even plugged it in at all when trying to use "Mass Storage" from the Network settings in the phone.

I just direct installed the drivers from the exe. Am I doing something wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] jfbs:
Try another port, cable, or machine. It worked before, so it could be a driver or something physical.

ed: When you're booted into your rom, can you change storage connection to ums? cwm might be mass storage instead of mtp.

Also, are you able to receive texts now?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
I'm able to do everything the device is supposed to do out of the box, aside from access MTP.

I only have the one PC, and all ports have pretty much the same reaction to the device. I don't have access to another cable, because I only have the one that came with the device.

Mounting USB Mass Storage through CWM gives the same result on the PC "Device Not Recognized" etc, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Not even ten days later and I've had to re-flash the ROM. The device kept turning itself off and back on again, so I decided to just remove all the programs I'd installed, thinking something I installed was causing an issue. After doing so, the device kept crashing. Not a reboot of the device or anything of the sort. Literally everything would pop up saying " ----- has stopped responding" and ask to force close. Not really sure what could've caused that, considering I've only installed things that were on Google Play, but it gave me the impression that I had an app that wasn't working correctly with the ROM on the device.

I've brought it back to "vanilla" and I'm not going to bother installing anything at all on it for a while and see if the issue comes up again. Not sure if anyone else has had this problem before or not, but I figured I'd just give my two cents since I made this thread with intentions to figure out what was going on with my phone. If anyone has any insight as to why this may have happened it would be greatly appreciated so I can avoid it happening this time. I'll report back if the issue comes up again, or becomes persistent.

Thanks again for all of your help, and sorry if you've wasted your time reading this.

EDIT -

Device still reboots randomly, but I suspect it's a stuck power button. Is it possible that it just needs cleaning? Sometimes it reboots, sometimes it comes up with the option to power off after touching the power button to activate the touch screen, then upon pressing the back button, it reboots several seconds later as if I were holding the power the entire time.

Stuck in boot-loop help!!!

Carefully followed instructions, and carefully selected 2 .zip files for my t679 http://click.xda-developers.com/api...4G - xda-developers&txt=<b>root-stock.zip</b> and http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26860509&postcount=4 installed cwm successfully, but after installation of root-stock.zip system reboot now stuck in "boot loop" now what?

- zCHEMDAWGz
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Following this in its entirety means you've wiped your phone's system clean. You'll have to use something other than root-stock, because that specifically states that it changes nothing other than granting root access. Everything that was on the phone from the factory is what root-stock uses, apart from giving you root access for things like Superuser, firewalls, etc. In this case, none of the stock items are present.

I used Rooted Community ROM. It's pretty much the same as root-stock, but it has a few goodies (BootyCall, and I think Busy Box) included. There are several other roms you could use, so you're welcome to look around a bit instead of just going with that one, but using that one for now would give you a working phone again until you find another you may like more.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] zCHEMDAWGz:
good call, community rom resolved this issue... now the only item left is the original problem - wifi/bluetooth "error". most of the easy fixes have already been attempted, aside from determining definitively if hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Was the error your reason for rooting? (or re-flashing a rom)?

Are you running the phone completely vanilla now? (no apps, no app updates, even of "stock" applications?) If not, you should try running it that way and testing the wifi and bluetooth prior to updating or installing things.

If it were something you installed that caused a software or hardware issue, it would've most likely been something you installed a day or two beforehand.(When it broke the first time.) If you suspect it was a specific app, stay away from it (or them) in the future.

Considering that you're running a newly flashed rom, it's a little odd that the bluetooth/WiFi unctionality would error, unless it were a hardware issue. The rom you're using shouldn't affect either of those negatively, even if the phone were bricked and you managed to repair it.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] zCHEMDAWGz:
The WiFi error existed prior to my ownership. I have never got it to function at all, except for when I was first programming the access point names settings for new mobile network, and fiddling with the other settings in the area, it did show my LAN, allowed me to attempt connection then failed the process early stage. It seemed logical that a new system would alleviate any antagonistic action executed by any previous owner. The only certain detail was it had not been rooted. I have been told loading custom Rom is 2 birds deal, freshness and increased control. Also, based on the behavior of the device and pop-up error messages that indicate software failure makes it seem related to software hiccup. but just a hunch. Been wrong before, really don't want to tear down phone but am open to learning something new. Thanks

- zCHEMDAWGz
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
I truly have no idea why the software would have any issues that arose directly after installing the new rom.

The only thing I can really suggest is using cwm to wipe everything several times prior to re-flashing the rom again, but I'm guessing you already did that. On the off chance it were hardware related, it probably wouldn't actually give error messages, so I'm gonna retract that from this entirely as it's very unlikely.

If you haven't, wipe your internal memory, system, cache/dalvik. Just in case, be sure you remove your external SD so you can keep the rom on it. Also, while you're at it, remove everything else except the rom from the external SD in case something on it is causing the issue, then try to re-flash the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] zCHEMDAWGz:
Followed instructions, still having same issue... also the problem was there before I flashed New rom. I'm stumped...
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BobScramit:
Well, it being there before flashing the rom is a start, but that doesn't really explain why the new rom wouldn't have fixed whatever the issue was. I'm assuming (because I honestly don't know) that bluetooth and wifi are both controlled through the same hardware, with different softwares running them on the device. If both of them are messed up and refuse to work even after a re-flash, chances are it's just dead.

Have you actually formatted system, cache, etc after wiping, prior to a new flash? I had to format mine several different times in order to stop the boot loops and crashing. It could be something that's stuck in the system, cache, etc that didn't go away with a simple wipe. Other than that, it very well could be a hardware issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Dvarl:
If it is a latent issue maybe doing full wipes through adb is the next step. I remember reading some people had some issues with doing wipes through cwm. It might be worth a try at the very least.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Halfhoff:
I can no longer sync so I need help with the following question - what should I do and in what order after a hard reset?

I have tried just about everything to get my 8125 to sycn. It synced the first time. I installed some programs. Then it quit during an install. I can no longer sync but the device is 'connected'. I have tried everything from upgrading to Activesync 4.2beta, soft resetting, checking USB, Firewall and network connectors, ports and so on. I have wiped every scintila of Activesync from my system and garbage can. I think a hard reset is a must.

After copying some files to my PC (i.e. photos that I took) I will do a hard reset.

Once that is one, what should I do next?

1. upgrade the ROM?

2. unlock the SIM card (I live in Canada and use Rogers so my phone must be unlocked to work; I assume hard resets relock the phone)?

3. format my 2 GB mini San Disk SD card?

on the SD card, I do not know if I need to do anything. I cannot seem to delete picture files using the tap and hold or file explorer functions. I make sure that the pictures and videos program is closed but it will not let me delete them. Is there something wrong with my card?

on the SIM card, am I correct that a hard reset will relock my phone?

My current settings are (when I soft reset):

IPL 1.08

SPL 1.08

GSM 01.09.11

OS 1.8.11.1

I am not sure what all that means

My "Device Information" says:

ROM version: 1.8.11.1 WWE

Rom date: 11/24/05

Radio Version: 01.09.11

Protocol Version: 4.0.13.20

ExtROM version: 1.8.11.103

This is, of course, the Cingular 8125 or WIZA100

Please help!

In my settings "About" the device says

OS 5.1.70 (Build 14410.1.1.3)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] rob61280:
a hard reset will not relock the sim card, search for lokiwiz and run it to ensure wizard is unlocked before you upgrade so you dont crash it.

good luck

R
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Halfhoff:
Thanks.

The phone was purchased unlocked. As I am having difficulties syncing and installing programs, I have to hard reset. But I will upgrade my ROM first. Do I still need to use lockwiz if it is unlocked?

Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] SkyyBoy:
if you run the newest version of Lokwiz (the 3.x version). It will give you the actual unlock code to put into your phone. Write it down. That way, if your 8125 ever gets re-SIMlocked somehow then you can re-unlock it.

To re-format the miniSD card, use a program called Storage Tools to re-format in your 8125. Use FAT16, no FAT backup to re-format.

[Nexus 5 General] Gormsen:
Quite nice thread for newcomers, and it might, as it grows, be a go-to for those of us who have been rooted for ages in case we forgot about some of the stuff we can do/achieve with root ;)

One question though, why not use the features included in Rom Toolsbox Pro, since you're already using it. I has a root explorer, if you swipe once to the left in the main menu, you'll get to a Build.prop editor and one more swipe will bring you to the Boot Animations "switcher". Think about it ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Dakura:
Nice thread, changing dpi is the first thing i do when i root, but I don't think its appropriate to call that "changing the screen resolution" , we are simply changing dpi, not resolution.
