[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
The problem is just "more reading" does not help because posts and people have different concerns. So we should concentrate on this thread. Even in this one thread there is uncertainty and perplexity about what to do and how to it.

Before you, almost none of my questions was not answered in this thread.

Why the originator of the thread does not answer the problems about his enterprise?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ri9000:
Perhaps the bottom line is that cwm5.0.2.6 will flash all GB roms and more. .

I'm pretty sure cwm6.x is only needed for some of the KK roms.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
1. Apart from its ability to flash KitKat ROM, what are the other advantages of 6.0.4.8 over 5.0.2.6?

2. Have you experienced S5830 with KitKat? Is it better than the official ROM 2.3.5?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ri9000:
There are a few nice L flavoured stock based roms to try and even an M . . :)

As well as plenty of stock and cm7 roms which are really cool. lots of fun to be had ;)

. . All can be flashed with cwm5 ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
Cannot boot after installing PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.40.1; and"Can't mount /system..."

I installed CWM 6.0.4.8 Advanced Edition / PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.40.1, by flashing its zip through cwm 5.0.2.6.

1. But as the attached picture shows, it can't open or mount /cache/recovery....

What is this problem and how it can be solved?

2. The device is now stuck on Samsung logo page, and can not boot any more!

3. Even restoring full backup does not work. When restoring starts, it says "Can't mount /system..." (look at attachment)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Viper The Ripper:
They are using different tags (set_metadata > CWM6 and set_perm > CWM5), but they do basically the same. The most important thing is CWM6 doesn't support .RFS partitions format, so it's NOT recommended to use with STOCK ROMS.

STOCK ROMS are faster, stabler than CM roms and battery is really good, but not compatible with new apps...

You "need CWM 6" to flash Android 4.4.+ if you don't use it there is no reason to flash it ;) ... anyway there is a method to flash Kitkat roms with CWM 5.x. you need to modify the updater-script and remplace a couple of files

---------- Post added at 03:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 PM ----------

Try to mount it manually thought mount and storage options...

I recommend you to wipe all your partitions (except sdcard partition :D ) before you restore your backup ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
1. I tried to mount it manually through mount and storage. But I was unable to mount.

2. I did "wipe data/factory reset" and "wipe cache". But it has made the device stuck on SAMSUNG logo.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Viper The Ripper:
Reflash the custom recovery and try it again, if it doesn't work, you must flash a fresh STOCK using ODIN. Then you'd restore your old backup

...an important question, what about your last ROM?? Was it a STOCK rom?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
I have reflashed 6.0.4.8/philz many times. Not only this cwm 6, but all cwm 6 recoveries are in fight with my device (or my official rom 2.3.5.).

I reflashed a whole four-part official rom.

I have always been on official rom (what you call STOCK, I think) 2.3.5.

A related question: How can recovery be flashed via odin?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Ri9000:
If you just want to get your phone going again ? then

flash cwm_5.0.2.6_cooper.zip

format, reboot, and then restore your backup or install new rom.

If you still want to play with kk, etc, then I suggest following a step by step tutorial.

Perhaps [MENTION=220241]Viper[/MENTION] has written one? . . ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
Dear,

I have been a user of cwm 5.0.2.6, since long ago.

I just wanted to have a touch custom recovery (not play with anything).

I would be happy if anyone has an idea about having touch recovery on S5830 with official rom 2.3.5.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Dr.Ghobar:
My reason for trying CWM 6.0.4.8/PhilZ touch recovery, was its touch capability and additional options.

My reason was not to flash custom roms.

If CWM 6.0.4.8/PhilZ touch recovery is not compatible with my official rom, then I refrain from it.

Is there any other custom recovery better than 5.0.2.6 for my device?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] Viper The Ripper:
I was meaning CWM 5.0.2.6... forget to use CWM 6 with STOCK ROMS.

STOCK ROM = Official Firmware by Samsung

Anyway if you want just a "touch ui" you can use PX recovery, by our [MENTION=3862405]SpaceCaker[/MENTION] ;)

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] thenetvines:
Hello, let me get right to it:

I have bought a used HTC ONE, I believe it's for Sprint since I connected to it (don't know if specific models relate to Sprint only).

The device seemed to be already rooted, which scares me, so I [lan to go back to stock, relock bootloader, and unroot to start from scratch. I learned how to use ADB and fastboot using Nexus devices, but S-OFF seems unclear to me.

Once in stock, I'll have Hboot 1.56.0000, and KitKat:

What order do I need to follow after that? Unlock bootloader first, then root, and THEN S-OFF?

Do I really need S-OFF for a custom recovery and sprint ROM, and Kernel? Can I S-ON after I apply a custom ROM and kernel?

Is S-OFF as dangerous as people suggest? Will it hard brick my device if I accidentally disconnect in the meddle of usb data transfer, a bad surge of electricity, or a mystyped command?

Please help.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Konfuzion:
S-off isn't dangerous unless you do something really stupid, but you could do something really stupid without s-off too. Benefit to having s-off is it increases the chance of being able to fix soft bricks, I would highly recommend getting s-off.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] thenetvines:
Can you help in the order I need to follow?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Devilish_Angel:
... buddy you need to be cautious not scared. getting s-off is pretty easy and safe if you follow the steps as described. phone has to be unlocked and rooted. here is the link and every instruction is right there. so go ahead.

It has original firmware Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and never have been rooted.It is bought from Australia on OPTUS network,unlocked. I had downloaded some pirate .apk's,but didn;t have problem before.

I was using Facebook application on the phone with WI-FI at the time it started BOOT LOOP.I took out the battery few times,started the phone but I still got only to SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 logo and it restarted by it self. I tried few times pressing together the POWER and MENU buttons together........nothing happened.Then after few attempts to start the phone,it suddenly stopped working.The display stopped working and it went BLACK,and now nothing happens even if I press all of the three buttons : VOLUME+POWER+MENU.......I can't start up the phone at all,to make FACTORY RESET.That is the problem now.I tried with another full battery ,but still nothing happens.I CAN GET THE PHONE TO START AT ALL.I ONLY GET BLACK SCREEN.

So if someone can help me to start the phone somehow and then try to do Factory reset !!!

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liveroy:
There is no such bug, it's a problem caused by usage of charger with one-step charging only, which cause the electronics on the battery to go nuts.

Same goes for using a lousy/bad USB port on your computer, especially if it can't reach 500mAh output for some reason.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] jamesdugan1980:
Hi,

My O2 XDA Exec, for reasons best known to itself (well, not to me anyway), has started soft-resetting itself randomly. In fact, it can be part-way through the boot-up sequence after a soft-reset, and reset again! The period between resets can be mere seconds to 30+ minutes of error-free use.

I have tried hard-resetting, removing any additional software, and am running 'Corporate' version of the ROM. The ROM version is 1.13.82 WWE (30/11/05), Radio version 1.04.02, ExtROM version 1.13.188 WWE.

The Exec will show this behaviour whilst plugged into the USB cable (which trickle charges it), the A/C charger, and when standing by itself. It seems to start getting worse when battery level reaches around 70%.

I have not submitted it to any shock, and the device has worked fine for months now. I'm sitting in India at the moment on holiday, and wonder whether gradual heat exposure might have been causing problems.

I'm not entirely convinced that upgrading to the latest ROM will work unless somehow the ROM has been corrupted. In fact, I'm scared the device will reset again part-way through the ROM upgrade, and leave me with an expensive brick.

My suspicions lie with a fault with the battery or the voltage sensing circuit.

Any help / advice would be greatly appreciated, as I have been unable to find any other posts that look similar to mine.

Cheers,

James
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabberPL:
Hi!

I `ve got a problem - power button in my ACE2 is down. It`s most likely hardware problem. So that, I want to use the warranty.

But I cannot, due to custom ROM inside.

So that`s where my question come from - how can I install stock ROM on my device? So far, I can`t use ODIN - because I can`t enter DOWNLOAD MODE (no power button = no power menu = no key`s combination)

I see two options:

- an app that go`es to download mode from the interface - any help would do, I cannot find anything in the G.Play

- changing hard keys mapping (f.e. vol up could replace power) - is that possible at all?

I`ve already learned, that hard keys mapping location is in:

/system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl

and mapping looks like this:

key 142 POWER WAKE

key 143 POWER WAKE

key 152 POWER WAKE

key 115 VOLUME_UP

So what can I do to replace this two keys?
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabberPL:
Problem solved:

File changed:

system/usr/keylayout/gpio-keys.kl

Mapping:

key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE

key 116 POWER WAKE

key 172 HOME WAKE_DROPPED

Replacing VOLUME_UP with POWER works just fine.

Hi, is there a "FAQ" for this phone which outlines all necessary aspects for rooting this particular phone? Mine is arriving Monday so I suppose I'll have to wait and see what OS etc. is on it.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devo7v:
There's not a FAQ for this phone since it's not nearly as popular as the S4 and didn't sell nearly as many units. That said it depends on which version you got.

If you have the i537, check this thread.

If you have the i9295, check this thread.

Other than that, just search through the General forum, most everything you are looking for can be found there.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkeuclid:
Thank you Devo for the response, I appreciate it and the link you provided to the firmwares. I ordered yesterday from AT&T and believe it's the SGH-I537. I've been searching quite a bit and been looking at TenEightyPee's thread below and found that very useful

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2347793

Now in that thread, for custom ROMs and recoveries, we still can or cannot load these?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devo7v:
The root method you linked to will only work for certain firmware versions on the i537. The thread I linked to has links to everything for all firmwares.

Since the i537 has a locked bootloader you cannot flash custom recovery or kernel. You can use SafeStrap to kind of get around it, but it's not perfect. The i9295 has an unlocked bootloader so you can do pretty much anything you want with it.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkeuclid:
Good info, thanks Devo. I'll know soon enough by Mon afternoon :fingers-crossed:

Solved, I've since rooted with Sunderwear's method, Mods you can close this thread thank you.

According to your bootloader details you are at a good starting point. Here is what I recommend you do from here:

2. flash this in bootloader mode. If you don't know how here is the help thread you need to read through:

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] GerdH:
Hello,

I own a s200 since last week. My first impression:

improved in many ways in comparison to my old Qtek2020 with WM2003

- better usability with WM5 and the additional buttons

- better power management

- better integration of phone (had problems on my old device with missing calls and missing sound at calls)

- size now so small that I can carry it like a normal cellphone

- speed is OK for my purposes (standard programs plus OziExplorer)

- power drain better than with Qtek2020

Not so good:

- sound at phone calls should be louder

- WiFi works good, but range should be larger (my s200 works up to 10m if there is no wall in between)

- small touch screen more difficult to operate (but I prefer a small device, that I can carry all the time)

I think the s200 will very useful for me (it will be my brain extension ...)

No the newest Dopod ROM is fairly fast for everyday uses. For movies I would use some overclocking @240mhz almost everything is as fast as the 416 mhz intel. But for Tomtom that isn't really necessairy, although overclocking will speed up, the starting-up time of the program...
