[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kamikazees:
Can I get a little help here? I have a rooted, otherwise stock i337 that I just used the TWRP root app. I wanted to make a backup of my phone before I flashed a new rom. It downloaded jflteatt and I verified and installed it to /dev/block/mmcblk0p21. then i tried to make a backup, and i'm stuck at "Downloading.... do not turn off target!!!" In the upper left corner there's a "Could not do normal boot. ODIN Mode.

I found the post "[GUIDE] How to Unbrick your AT&T S4 I337 OTA UCUAMF3" but am hesitant to use it, as I am not sure that is what I need to do. I also found some other similar posts, but for different devices so I am again hesitant to rely on those.

I tried pressing home, power and volume down, but it just resets back to this screen. Also, I originally posted this request on the TWRP page, but I think it should be here. If so, I will delete it there.

Please help?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kamikazees:
Thank you for the quick response. I have a small update since my first post. I found a poster in another section who got his phone rebooted by trying to send it to download mode, then cancelling out. I did that (pressing power, home and vol down), then when the phone "buzzed" I let off those keys and pressed them again. The phone rebooted, apparently normally.

So now I can check my firmware. Checking firmware is on the "baseband version" right? If so, then that info on my phone is I337UCUEMK2," which I guess is the MK2 firmware.

I deleted the TWRP app, but I'm not sure now if I've even got a recovery (if TWRP failed to install, maybe I'm still on stock?). Do I need to go ahead do the full ODIN tar file unbrick from where I am now? The phone appears to be operating normally.

If not, should I just go ahead and install safestrap recovery? I am trying to eventually get rid of all the bloated samsung junk and get to CM or another ROM. The S4 seems a bit more touchy than some of my previous phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
Your stock recovery is probably broken, and so it would be best to at least reflash the stock recovery. However, you should be just fine if you want to only install Safestrap and leave recovery broken. I just wouldn't recommend that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kamikazees:
Ok, I want to fix the recovery. Can I use ODIN for that? One post I found said I cannot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2576291. It was several months ago, however, so I am not sure if it still holds true.

If I can use ODIN, I see that the stock recovery file is in ted77usa's post #3: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2621279. After putting my phone in download mode and connecting it to ODIN, in which slot would I put that file? Some older posts say to put it in the PDA slot, which appears to be the AP slot.

Thanks for your patience. I really don't want to mess this up again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
The first one is in img format and won't work through ODIN, but you can use those commands from terminal emulator to flash it if you download it. Otherwise, the TAR files do work just fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] megamanDJ:
If you are rooted and can actually boot the phone then I would install Safestrap for MK2 and install TWRP 3.71 to use as the recovery. I've been using Safestrap and TWRP since I was on MF3. I have also successfully flashed the tar files through Odin to get to MK2 with no problems. If you are rooted then its a really good idea to use Safestrap with TWRP for a recovery. Afterward you can find a list of compatible roms that are specific for Touchwiz on MK2 that for the most part are pretty stable. The stock recovery on this phone is pretty much useless.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kamikazees:
This is exactly what I did. I flashed the stock recovery in Odin (yes, it goes in the AP slot), which fixed my first problem. Then I installed Safestrap, then made a ROM slot and installed Goldeneye v. 21 (the 4.3 version for MK2). That removed all of the AT&T bloat (yay), and I did not have to flash the MK2 kernel (which I think would also have gone in the AP slot) because it has it already.

Then I flashed the GE add-on that removed a bunch of Samsung bloat (yay #2). Rebooted and turned off the rest of the Samsung stuff I didn't want. Got the phone up and running beautifully.

What a picky phone! The locked bootloader really causes a lot of trouble to inexperienced flashers like me. I unfortunately have about 5gb of "wasted" space because I understand I cannot flash over the "stock" rom, but I am at least running another ROM that I chose. My phone, my choice. Shame on Samsung!

Thank you very much!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] megamanDJ:
There is actually a way to flash a rom to the stock slot, but I haven't done it. Somewhere in the Safestrap threads explains how to do it. I think you can even get it back to normal if you change your mind.

Hi

Can anyone give me any ideas on how to boost the call volume at all? I have the volume set to MAX but the sound is so quiet it's driving me nuts. It cant be me going deaf as I can still hear the wife ;)

It used to be fine when I was on M2 of CM11 but needed to move to a newer version (now on nightly from March 14th) in order to fix a couple of other issues with GPS, camera and bluetooth.

I also have the same problem since using CM11. When using the Samsung Stock Rom, the volume was much louder.

So what app should I use?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MargaL:
Did you guys find a solution for this problem? I have it too...

I found a workaround. Once the call starts press volume down button and then volume up. It works great. The problem is that you have to do this each and every single time...

Hi,

I have tried with the one here, and it does not accept my device.

I become the following error message:

=================================

[*] Starting rooting program.

ro.build.product=jflte

ro.build.id=JSS15J

setsockopt<> failed: Bad address.

this device is not supported.

kallsyms_addresses search failed.

[*] Checking if rooting succeeded

[*] Unfortunately, rooting failed. Cleaning up.

=================================

I thought, this method runs on every stock from 4.3. I have the following: I9505XXUENAA_I9505YBTENB2_I9505XXUENAA_HOME.tar

Does someone knows a link with a newer version for my firmware? Or could the developer write it for this firmware? All the olders firmware from 4.3 also are supported.

Because I am a newbie, I cant post directly in the thread.

I would appreciate very much, if someone could help me.

I need a method, that dont triggers knox warranty.

Thanks in forward.

Hi,

I think the link you mentioned is showing the latest version of the saferoot script.

I used it last week for my: JSS15J.I9505XXUEMKF and it worked perfectly.

I first installed Samsung Kies version 3 and the I used the youtube link in post #1 to check what to do.

Some steps showed different, but eventually, with a good result.

I am not sure if your version of the firmware is any different than mine. I hope you will get it to work.

Good Luck.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdaerdeve:
Thanks, my version is different. You have firmware ...MKF, I have the latest ...NAA.

Both of them are Android 4.3, but the version has little updates, like missing 3g after deep standby, and so on.

I think the script is still not optimized for ...NAA.

Hi there, I seem to have a strange and frustrating problem with my XDA IIi :shock: . When I put the XDA IIi on the cradle and then attach the USB connection to the PC, a message saying found new USB device appears followed by there is a hardware error from New Hardware Wizard. Its around this time the PDA has turned itself off and then on, and then going through the setup phase and reverting back to factory default. :cry:

Nothing has changed on my XP system or my PDA. The PDA is 14-15 months old and I have not replaced the battery at all. I have read that the PDA does suffer from battery problems but could this be one?

Any ideas would be most welcome :lol:
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] gquipster:
This happened to me, turned out that there was some dirt or something in the socket on the bottom which was causing it to short each time I docked it and it hard-reset. I cleaned it out carefully with a precision screwdriver and some compressed air and it's worked perfectly since.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] juniper:
Thanks G, I'll have ago tonight if I can after the footie. Also this morning I charged the battery seperately in other slot on the cradle and then I put the battery back in the PDA. The green light on the top-right was constantly on even when i turned the power off and the battery power went from 100% to 54% in the space of two hours even though it was doing nothing!!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] juniper:
I'm afraid that cleaning the connection end did not work. It was a good idea, there was a lot of lint and stuff that I managed to clear out.

Whats happening now is when I simply put the XDA in the cradle the charge comes on but when i take the xda out of the cradle the charge light still remains on and also the XDA heats up quite a bit. I tried to connect to the PC and got a message saying that there is a something wrong with the USB device and the XDA reboots again.

I'm thinking of getting another battery, I've seen some cheap ones on ebay, much cheaper than from o2.

Does anyone think my XDA is destined for the bin?

Actually it's not the dock or anything. It's your ignorance.... You should follow the manual... Alpine sometimes will hard reset when it is docked and then connected via USB. U should firstly connect the dock to the USB socket, and after that only you could put Alpine to the dock.... TQ, hope this will help
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] juniper:
My ignorance hey!! :oops: As I have mentioned, I've had this for 14-15 months now and this is what I do.

Put xda in cradle, turn it on and then dock it to PC. Its worked fine for ages unless this screwed it up.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] re_ipsa:
Sorry

Not to offend you. But try to connect the cradle to the USB first. And only after that you put your Alpine to the cradle. That's what I did.....
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] juniper:
Hi Guys

I have good news, the XDA seems to be working and I think I found the problem. My Dad had tried to change the motherboard on our computer and then reverted back to old one. However he did nt quite set the front USB ports correctly and thats why the PDA kept "shorting". I tried the USB slots at the back and they worked as they are integrated ports.

Also its given me a chance to MOD the xda, learnt a new things on this forum.

Thanks
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] re_ipsa:
glad to hear that... hope you'll enjoy your alpine... uhuuhuh... i'm sad alpine is no more in the O2 showroom.... but it's still the most practical PDA phone... by the way beauty is in the eyes of the beholder right?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] peavey:
Also noticed,

When the XDA 2i is docked and rebooted, if u remove and insert the SD card during bootup - It will hard reset. :!:

Found it strange - Dont know if its my XDA thats Faulty or all the same problem.
