Sounds like you should Odin the stock image. You can get it from sammobile.com
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] PanchoPlanet:
I second that. Odin fix back to stock, root, custom recovery, NANDROID (back up ), then try your luck with custom roms always knowing that if it gets kadywompus you can go to your B/U and start over again.

Edit : You may have to go to Samsung official site and download the firmware from them.

Help me, please!

Hello guys, I really need an aid:

I was wiping my cache and dalvik-cache in recovery mode when the phone turned off. Since than it never turned on again and I can't access neither to bootload nor recovery, just black screen. I tried to change battery or charging it but it doens't. I even tried to plug it to the pc and it only plays the connection and disconnection notification chime in loop.

I don't know what else to do!!

Please, can someone help me?? :crying::crying:
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exothermic:
Seems like a hard brick, um first wait until battery depletes and try charging, hopefully that works. If not, try getting your hand on a usb jig (or making your own) search for it, and if that doesn't work then you need to send it in for repairs, or find a service shop that offers JTAG service.

If you do send it in for repairs, act dumb and say you were updating via kies and that was that, most of the times, they change motherboards or just jtag it so they don't check too into it.

Reflection (Thanks atticus182!):

Disclaimer:

I'm not responsible if you're phone blows up, bricks, or anything like that.

Instructions:

1. Download ZipThemer - https:// play.google.com/store/apps/d...ipthemer&hl=en

2. Download the "aooga_z1_nav.zip" file

3. At right upper corner push the 3 dot settings access icon and choose "Update Edify".

4. Verify your device is listed. It should be auto-selected.

5. Push "Browse" and select a flashable file that you have on your phone (choose the rom zip file or gapps zip file for example) but not my file.

5. Next click "Configure". You should get the toast message "Success".

6. Go back one page and then tap "+Theme" button.

7. Then use the green arrow to go and search to find "aooga_z1_nav.zip"

8. On the next screen you should see a check next to Z1 Nav.

9. Press the "Build It" button.

10. You will then be prompted to create a flashable "undo" file to revert the changes (may be a wise suggestion).

11. The app will then build the flashable files (One an update .zip and the other is undo .zip. Then the app will go to a Build Log screen.

12. You can now reboot into your recovery and flash the "Z1_nav-update.zip" or the "Z1_nav-undo.zip" as you need to. (Note: This name might vary, but it will always say "update" or "undo" at the end of the name.)

13. Enjoy!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Plonqor:
Hi,

I currently have CWM 6.0.4.4 installed on my d802 but I can't update it.

I have tried flashing using this tool:

CWM 6.0.4.7

TWRP 2.7.0.0

CWM Touch 6.0.4.4

I also tried flashing with ROM Installer.

In every case, the flash seems to work fine, but I reboot to recovery and it's still CWM 6.0.4.4 and nothing has changed. I've tried factory reset, wiping cache (dalvik too), yet it didn't make a difference.

If it matters, I'm currently using CM 10.2-20131110-NIGHTLY-d802.

The point of this is because I get an error when I try to flash a kitkat rom (e.g. CM 11.2) and I assume I need to update recovery.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demonlink14:
Hello there! I have been having a bit of a problem lately. I own a BLU Dash 5.0 simunlocked from factory. It's a double sim model, which I have two sims, since the companies are spanish, let's call them Green Sim and Blue Sim (since that's how they are color coded in my status bar). It is also running Android Jelly Bean 4.2. Here is the problem. Ever since of March 20, a Chinese app appeared on my home screen, I don't know how, something called "Mobile Video" but the content was in a foreign Asian language. I suspect of my friend since I lent it to him for 15 minutes and then it appeared. Aside of this, the wifi and the Green Sim 3G was turned on.

I clicked on the app curious of it was something my friend downloaded from me, but then the app prompted me two options, I didn't know what it said since again, it was Asian. Next, I proceeded to uninstall it, going to my apps list, I was surprised to see another mysterious app, "Push_Down", that was the name. I uninstalled both Mobile Video and Push_Down. I thought I fixed the problem. Wrong.

Next day when I woke up, I found two new apps on my homescreen, and again, the Wifi and Green Sim 3G was on.These were Chinese also. I uninstalled them both and found once again "Push_Down" in my apps. After I uninstalled them, I thought the problem was finally fixed. Wrong again. Since this event, about every 2 or 3 hours, my Wifi and Green Sim 3G turn on automatically, but haven't downloaded anything new, one, because I have no credit left, and two, I have no internet at home. Ever since, daily I wake up, the same problem, the Wifi and 3G are on. I checked my SD Card, I checked my Phone Storage, both with 2 Antivirus (Avast!, and Lookout Mobile) and with Addons Detector. Surprisingly, nothing has appeared.

My last option is what hurts me most, to reset my phone, which I don't want to do since I have lots of apps installed, progress made with certain games and etc, etc. Also, I am not a root user, so I haven't rooted and won't root my phone.

Now, can anyone please help me? I am very annoyed at this happening everyday!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmillsy:
same problem...cheinese apps keep reinstalling

I too have had this problem for a few weeks now. Got a Chinese smartphone for Christmas (ok i know thats the first mistake, but it was worth a try for the money). mfaction royale mp720 (mpie comes up on the startup screen). Anyway i realised there where a few Chinese apps that came with it (pinyin and a app with a orange icon with a squirrel logo on it) so i unistalled these without problem. One chinese app i couldn't uninstall so i disabled it in the app settings

Everything had been working fine without problem and had been very happy with the phone until a week or so ago. started getting the apps described above installing. These include 'push_down' 'push_collect' 'filegogo' 'mobile video' and some others with chinese writing on them. I also get my phone setting itself to mute when these apps reappear. Keep uninstalling them but they keep coming back. Have tried AVG and Antimalware but they only flag things up as they install themselves, not the thing thats doing the installing. I thought that google account might be a problem so changed password and reset my phone to factory default. As a test i didn't connect back to google account. No joy. Although some apps have not reappeared some have and this morning a new one so i don't think its google account.

I did read some Chinese phones can have the malware embedded into the firmware but it's been fine for months. Perhaps there is a delay so your not likely to send the phone back then the malware begins. If this is the case then the only way round would be to root the phone then find the app or apps that are doing this. Not sure if it's easy to root one of these phones.

Anyone else had these symptoms after a full factory reset?. Anyone been able to sort it out? Anyone know of a guide to root his phone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Demonlink14:
Hmmmmm....

Actually, as much as my experience from rooting, I haven't done it once again after a bad event I had, like almost bricking an old phone I had which for my good luck there was a way to restore it :P Ever since, I won't root anymore unless there exists a ROM backup by the manufacturer. But still, I don't know what's causing this. My phone has been fine since stock, I have more than 2 months with it! The problem started since last Thursday, which is why I suspect it's an app I downloaded or ad I clicked on. Any ideas?

I have VS980, with some version of PA 4. I hadnt updated it in a while so i downloaded the latest zip and tried to flash it with twrp. (i dont remember the exact version, but not 2.7) For some reason i suppose twrp didnt like to play nice with 4.4.3 and failed to something about updating binaries. I'm not sure what it was, doesnt really matter now though. That sorta messed up the rom enough so that it would never boot. it would get to the boot animation, but no further without intervention. So of course i was like "i gotta update my recovery!!" but alas i tried to flash it using adb and now twrp wont work, it only comes to a black screen. So i have been able to find no way to get into fastboot in lg g2 and i cant adb while in recovery and i have no ROM to work with. All i have is download mode which has (according to me) rendered my phone useless. I have been scouring the internet for hours trying to fix this with Download mode, perhaps with odin, but it's only for samsung devices i think. I have exhausted my mind and options and I am completely dumbfounded. If someone could shed some light on this it would be awesome. Before i take it to verizon to play stupid haha.

hi all, its been a long time now since i first thought on running my phone without any homescreen/launcher app, since i am no fan of fancy animations, rather than that i prefer a phone that doesn't lag and have a decent battery life I've installed the simpliest slimest launcher i know (slim launcher) it weighs only 0.9 mb, but still it uses ram and processor to run, now given that I'm on slimkat it jumped to me again, having slim pie /notification shortcuts, ive decided to set all my apps into those tools, meaning fill up three slim pie rows with essential apps and notification shortcuts with the rest, but before i do anything i would like to read some insights from other users, possible limitations when deleting my last launcher app, and if it would/wouldn't be beneficial regarding battery life and performance, atm i see just one limitation and it's the number of apps i can install to my phone due to the limited amount of free spaces on slim pie + notification shortcuts

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zener773:
So I'm trying to flash Cricket's Samsung Vitality (R720) to a non-US carrier. Everything is fine except for the data settings. For the NAI and PPP settings, it uses a different number than the MDN. This number is a code (5 digits) plus the MDN. The problem is that all Cricket handsets take just MDN numbers (10 digits only) for the NAI and PPP settings. Whenever it exceeds 10 digits for the MDN portion of the NAI and PPP, it reverts back to a default number upon reboot. For example, on cricket a normal PPP number would be 1234567890@mycricket.com. For this other carrier, the MDN would be 123451234567890@vzw3g.com. What can I do so that I can permanently enter anything I want on the PPP and NAI fields?
