It turns on, goes in to download mode and recovery mode but it doesn't go past the Samsung logo when I turn it on.

[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] rishi.broto:
Before I start posting, I would like to make the following points very clear:

[*]I'm a NOOB when it comes to complex programming knowledge.

[*]In no way, I'm trying to raise a finger on the developers of the ROMs and Kernels.

[*]Here I'm stating only the bugs I came across when I tested the ROMs.

The purpose of posting it here is Two-fold:

So that developers can notice it and provide a quick and effective solution.

It can act as a guide for other noobs who can decide which custom ROM to install.

NOTE:

THE TEST DEVICE USED IS: SAMSUNG GALAXY Y PRO DUOS (INDIAN FIRMWARE: B5512DDXWLG1, BASEBAND: B5512DDLG1)

RUNNING ON STOCK KERNEL AS WELL AS ON COMPACT KERNEL BY [MENTION=4748455]Deadly[/MENTION].

This particular Model has 2 suggested custom ROM:

Baseband: B5512DDLG1

Kernel: Compact@Deadly #8/ Stock Kernel (2.6.35.7 dpi@DELL154 #1)

Though, It has not been long since I have started testing the Custom ROM, The initial stages have led to the following bug:

Unable to update Google Play Services and other Google apps. Google Play Services is necessary for the recent versions of many Google apps like Hangout, Gmail, YouTube etc. On updating Google Play Services via Play Store, it shows the error message "Package File is Invalid. Please uninstall the app and try again." On uninstalling the app using Link2sd and reinstalling it, it shows the error "Google Play Services is not supported by the current ROM in your device. Kindly contact the manufacturer for assistance." Please provide an immediate and detailed solution to this problem as the age-old versions of Gmail, Gtalk, YouTube is simply not tolerable.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth do not work simultaneously. If Wi-Fi is switched on, Bluetooth wont work until Wi-Fi is switched off and phone is restarted. Similarly if Bluetooth is switched on, Wi-Fi wont work till Bluetooth is switched off and phone is restarted.

[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] arbayong:
i stopped using hatyonRom about 18 months ago and so do not have the phone to investigate the issues raised. but seeing as wifi and bluetooh cannot be used concurrently in both custom roms, i postulate that it might be an issue with gb and not necessarily the custom roms. you didn't also tell us if both wifi and bluetooth work normally on stock rom.

i am pretty sure you misquoted the baseband for hatyonrom. check my signature to be sure.

on the issue of updates, those issues seemed not to exist at the time of development so i recommend you create a patch for it yourself. simply go to stock rom. update all the apps you need new versions for, make a nandroid backup and from the backup copy the updated ups and adb push them or make a flashable zip for the rom. you can share with others. lol

dsixda kitchen could be used to make the patch.:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Did you try updating the rom not having a fully charged battery? It sounds like it to me - if it is completely dead i reckon the battery is dead. Connect it to the mains (not usb) charger for a while until it comes to life. If you have a spare battery handy try that.

So I've actually been getting this error for the past couple months, though I'm just now properly addressing it.

So I rooted my Note 3 a few months ago, and since then I've been getting an error every time I try to update my phone.

I should note that literally every morning, I get a prompt asking to update my phone.

Anyway, the error is:

"Software update unsuccessful: Sorry, there was a problem updating your SAMSUNG SM-N900V. No changes were made."

And that's that. My current Android version is 4.3

Anyone know what's going on here?

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfl007:
Ok, I've put my flame suit on, but I swear I have tried everything. I am not a developer level guy by any means, but I've been installing custom roms since the OG droid. But this time I got distracted and clearly made a foolish mistake. I was installing XDABBEB's new rom and I totally flaked out and installed the bootstrap and the rom in the same flash. it obviously didn't work and even though I read the instructions, I tried to restore my rom from a backup. Now the only thing I can do is boot into fastboot.

I've tried a number of ways to get TWRP or CWM back onto my phone so I can sideload a rom onto it, but every time I try to fastboot a recovery file it says that "remote: image is not a boot image" or something. What I have gathered from my research is that I cant install a custom recovery unless I am rooted.

/

So, without a custom recovery and only fastboot at my disposal, where do I go from here?

- press together power and lower button to get usb connecting screen, unplugged usb cable.

- LG tools installed and D-802 pilots {for me] installed, plug cable and check pilots again.

- launch in LG tools option for wrong install repair

- wait until the complete rom repair is installed, quite long, and then you win automatic reboot! You just loose root. Ioroot 25 again, that's all.

[Sony Xperia M] stalin.sk2:
you can root again in 4.3 re-lockable bootloader

there is another method is there to root 4.3 and also in lock bootloader without downgrade to 4.1/4.2

The problem is I DON'T HAVE USB DEBUGGING ENABLED :( :( :(
[Sony Xperia M] stalin.sk2:
without wiping system wont work on your phone becouse you modified system app

so you need to flash system also

and you said bootloader unlock allowed then follow my steps(unlock & relock) on next post

Indeed It is still in boot loop but is there no way to access the device and change permissions without having to flash !!! :(

EDIT :I mean what about adb and fastboot
[Sony Xperia M] stalin.sk2:
4.1/4.2/4.3 root for unlocked allowed bootloader may works on all xperia m varient

first check *#*#7378423#*#* service info ->configuration "bootloader unlock allowed yes" then continue

you need

4.3 ftf (for stock kernel & loder.sin to unlock bootloader)

flashtool

Root App supersu.rar

cwm kernel

steps

first place supersu.rar in your hone externel card

then open flash tool connect your phone in flashmode(volume up + connect usb)then click BLU button

if u get error that loder.sin missing then extract loder.sin from 4.3 ftf and place in correct place

then unlock bootloader

now root your phone using this method

now to relock bootloader

once again connect phone in flashmode then click BLU (relock success)

now to stock kernel

once again connect phone in flashmode click flash button and select 4.3 ftf

now untick wipe data & cache

and also tick all in exclude part except kernel (which means flash kernel only)

and click flash alone

thats all:good::good::good:

---------- Post added at 08:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------

you can access adb only after enable usb debugging mode (on state)

in fastboot mode you can unlock bootloader but i dont have clear idea

and just so you know i too messed with my phone for trying this Smart social Camera..:p
[Sony Xperia M] solonxpl:

I have dual sim hence dual IMEI for which I have two unlock codes .

Which one should I use ???
[Sony Xperia M] stalin.sk2:
First sim imei code must be used to get unlock code.
[Sony Xperia M] solonxpl:
So I MUST USE this of SIM1 IMEI NOT THE SIM 2 IMEI

which has a file different than the one you posted

2- How am I going to relock without the TA Partition ??

3- The tutorial in 1 uses adb yet here we use flashtool which one is better for locking and unlocking bootloader ??

PS : Please I need a detailed steps for rooting my M DUAL C2005 because I 'm so afraid I would brick my sony , I cannot afford to buy a new one.
[Sony Xperia M] stalin.sk2:
YOU JUST FOLLOW TESED IN ALL XPERIA M

ans1.THIS LINK TO ROOT works on all xperia m single(c1904,c1905) and dual(c2004, c2005)

ans2. if you unlock bootloader with flashtool( flashmode so no root required for taking TA backup ) it will take backup of your phone locked bootloader settings after completing root. you relock bootloader using same flashtool. these also working on all xperia m single(c1904,c1905) and dual(c2004, c2005)
