Did you try to install the USB drivers for your device to connect to PC?
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] ositandroid:
If you can enter download mode, you are good to go.

*Make sure you set the lg pc app to emergency mode and type to 3gqct.

*Disable the phone as a modem from under your computer's system Properties in control panel.

*Make sure the phone drivers are installed

I did everything you said, but the program still giving this errors
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] ositandroid:
The KDZ file might be corrupt. Try downloading it with a fast stable connection without interruption.

Or give it to an lg service centre. You have a 2 year warranty. Tell them it won't boot. Claim to be a noob. Just tell them u only use Whatsapp & bbm. They will repair it or replace it

[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Fiztban:
Hello xda,

Just two days ago out of the blue while transitioning from home to the train with the Tegra on off (I remember turning it off during charging before I left) as I sat down on the train I found it turned on (unusual) I didn't think much of it but since then I later noticed that my Wifi was stuck on the "Turning Wifi on" message and that the app wouldnt allow me to click the cog in the top left to return to the settings page (moreover when I click the open programs buttons it just disappears..strange) the only reason my attention was brought to this was because my Bluetooth gave me an error saying it couldnt share bluetooth anymore.

At the time I thought a simple restart would fix it but nope it didn't. My tegra is rooted but I have had no problems until now!

Since then I have done

Factory data reset

Cleared memory cache

Factory restored using the advent factory 4.3 image http www adventcomputers co uk / product-download-select/296 (sorry first posts and I don't seem to be allowed to post links).

Right now I find myself stuck at the "Welcome" screen as after I select a language and press next the wifi tries to turn on and I cannot skip this.

Any suggestions on what I should/could try please? Is it a hardware problem like it happened with the Samsung Galaxy?

Thank you
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Fiztban:
Does anyone have a suggestion?

I am trying to compress the latest stock rom (Roms Stock 4.4.2 from rootjunkysdl) into a system.img in ext4 format so as to then place it in the automatic Vega-tegra recovery tool found at: www adventcomputers co uk / product-download-select/296

At the moment I am stuck at the fompressing a folder directory into an ext4 file .img format.

Anyone have any ideas?

The reason I am trying the above is because upon resetting it with the above mentioned recovery tool, the WiFi is still on "turning on" however with it resetting it to version 4.3 means I cannot find a way to bypass the welcome screens as it won't allow me past until I manage to connect it to the internet.

Please, any help at this point would be very much appreciated
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] asratxda:
Try some USB 3g/4g Dongle and insert it into micro USB , then you can connect to internet via 3g/4g and see if you can get past welcome screen.

...

I had similar problem "wifi just showing turning on forever" with a phone. But that had happened because I had accidently deleted the "insmod" binary from "/system/bin/" folder ( actually replaced it with the one that came with "precompiled busybox-1.21.1-armv7" from busybox.net.) So at that time my phone was not able to load the "Wifi module some .ko extension file") See if you are also having this problem.
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] Fiztban:
Thank you for your reply, my tegra is not set up for 3/4G as far as I know, wouldnt connecting a dongle require some app installation?

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
Earlier today after the installation of a music player from google play(i include the music player part because the incident occurred about 2 hours later), my phone has been doing constant boot loops.

It was working perfectly until it just suddenly blacked out, restarted itself and it makes it as far as samsung logo until it restarts again.

This was a pure stock s3 mini. When i came home, i decided to flash TWRP and change to a reputably working PAC kitkat. However the boot loop persists.

Any ideas? i'm at a loss.

Thanks in advance.

Tried to wipe data (factory reset) and cache in recovery?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
multiple times. Unless TWRP isn't getting the job done, which im sure isn't the case. I read a few threads where people had similar problems and it was suggested to do a battery change so ill try that and see what happens.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
Guys i need some answers for a few questions please, or if possible, a link to thread(s).

1. Phone versions: Is there a way to identify your phone's version, example "I8190XXANC2", without having to turn on the phone. Im trying to locate my stock 4.1.2 JB.

2. I found a guide to unbrick soft-bricked S3 mini's. My problem matches one of the characteristics which is rebooting on its own after samsung logo. The guide includes the files, (and the stock ROMs hence why im trying to find my phone's version) and a param_I8190.tar file, which they say is to be used should the phone be stuck in a boot loop. My question here is, should i try the param_I8190.tar with Odin without flashing the stock ROM (i never rooted or customized my phone by the way)?

Again...thanks in advance for any assistance.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
Just leaving this here...

The phone is apparently constantly unmounting the system and efs partitions. Whenever i reboot in recovery they are always unchecked. Is that normal?

Also it appears the phone works normally WITHOUT a sim card.....but i obviously need it to work with it.....i am baffled here and desperately need some assistance...any assistance.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:
Of course it's normal if system and efs are unchecked in recovery. So you mean your phone only booting without a sim card?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
yea pretty much, thats the only hiccup. Would that have anything to do with the efs itself? Im still trying to understand what exactly it controls.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:
EFS is a folder that is saved in our smartphones. It controls IMEI number, serial number, WiFi MAC address, Bluetooth MAC address and many more. it means it's a very important folder and if you delete this folder then you can't call someone, turn on WiFi (because you don't have a MAC address anymore), Bluetooth etc. Only Samsung devices have an efs folder
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoniv:
flash the official firmware through odin. it should fix your problem. if it doesn't work then i don't know what to do else :(
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
ok thank you both. i also just found the official stock rom for my firmware. I did some digging myself and i believe i know what the problem is now. It appears the phone is missing it's nv_data.bin file, which i read induces a bootloop if it isn't present.

I will attempt the flash with odin and report in later. Hopefully it works.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
It doesn't seem to be a problem with param or cache because the phone bots without sim.

Most likely is't something wrong with baseband or modemfs-folder.

Try to flash stock rom first and report back please.

DON'T do anything with your /efs. i8190 does not have NV_data.bin in efs like most sumsung devices do.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:
Unfortunately, the phone is still bootlooping with the sim card. Works without sim. This is rather frustrating.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:
Do the same problem happen if you use a other sim card?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReeceWyld:

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiz91:
Battery problem?

It could be a faulty battery? Try and place the battery on a flat surface then try to spin it, if spins you need a new battery. I have a bootloop problem myself and i'm pretty sure it's my battery that's become faulty since i can even see it bulking out from the middle.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
A quich search here in XDA gives me a hint that NovaThor SoC most likely doesn't store IMEI in /efs.

There is some info to be found in S Advance and Ace2 forums. They're build on the same NovaThor SoC.

EFS - product code, BT/WI-FI mac adress, ril, calibration files and a few other stuff.

MODEMFS - ril calibration files, other ril related files.

CSPSA - ril calibaration files, IMEI, SimLock data, serial number.

synchronization between CSPSA and Modemfs on every systemstart.

This CSPSA (Crash Safe Parameter Storage Area) seems to be a raw partition without filesystem. Also encrypted.

If you would like to make a backup of CSPSA you can use terminal emulator.

su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 of=/extSdCard/cspsa.img

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
I'm not sure that will work but it gives a hint that imei is stored in a encrypted state within that partition.

Flashing it from another phone may as well brick it. I don't know.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qasim799:
I flashed other encrypted partitions like mbr'gpt etc but my phone didn't bricked

So can you give me backup of it.I will flash it on my risk
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
This post pretty much confirms that IMEI and SIMLOCK is stored in CSPSA because when he flash it to other phone it will change IMEI and get UNLOCKED.

Reason for that is right here.

I can't give you mine since cloning IMEI is illegal and also against the rules of XDA.

My suggestion is to try the service firmware with pit-file and re-partition. If that fails then there is a hardware issue in your nand drive.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schnob:
Hello all, I'm posting on behalf of my brother (I have an M8) who is having a very strange issue. He can text and use data but he can't call anything. Whenever he attempts to, he simply gets the pop up that the mobile network is not available (See picture). This is just super strange to me because clearly his phone says he has LTE. He is running the latest unofficial build of PA along with Gravitybox.

Any suggestions? Being able to make calls is kind of a crucial purpose of smart "phone" haha.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
LTE cannot support voice calls. When you call on LTE coverage the 1xRTT radio makes the call. Have him flash a radio and reflash the Rom. Also this is the Verizon HTC One M7 forum, not the M8 ;)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brholt6:
Has he updated his firmware?

He's posting for his brother.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schnob:
He was completely stock before flashing PA, would flashing the newest radios still help? He doesn't have access to a computer right now so I don't think we would be able to update the firmware.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brholt6:
It could...does he have the issue on any other roms?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schnob:
I don't think he was ever able to make calls, on CM or PA. I'll have him flash the radios before he tries completely wiping.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Check santod's thread. There is recovery flashable radios. He can try each one. If they don't work, might need to flash the firmware via fastboot.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] schnob:
The radios should be fine to flash on a 4.4.2 rom correct?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Uzephi:
Yes
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brholt6:
You'll want the most recent radios. The older ones cause the issues. The 2 most recent are the only ones that don't I believe. It's also recommended to flash the whole firmware (the one without the boot.img) but if he doesn't have access to a computer that can be done later.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nitephlight:
Might be he just needs to update his network preference in the hidden phone testing menu? #*#*4636*#*# , going from sense to AOSP i recall causes issues like this

Hey Everyone,

I have a tough one here, at least for me.Question is am I getting charged for texting using "GO keyboard"? I am no longer grandfathered in with Verizon's unlimited data plan and need to know how to distinguish between a text message and an Instant message. With Verizon you get charged for anything data which does include IM to the best of my knowledge.

So am I getting charged by using the Go keyboard which does come with themes or NOT? If you need more info from me please ask and if I put this thread in the wrong location I apologize and will put it in it's appropriate place if told where.

im sorry for any double threading. im just so lost on this Experia Ion and was hoping someone can point me in the right direction from where i stand with it.

1. Its locked. is there a way to unlock it even though it says Bootloader Unlocked: NO ?

2. what can i do to get any custom rom on it while the bootloader is locked or is that even possible?

3. if that isnt possible, is there a way to get a better firmware version than 4.0.4?

yes i have flashtool working with drivers i already reloaded 4.0.4 stock on it.

main reason im even wondering about any of this, is because when i make calls the MIC on it is muffled horribly. ive read the forums about the Mic rubber Gasket piece so thats my next step. but im wanting to try a newer firmware (hopefully custom) before taking the phone apart :(. as stated im sorry for double thread posting if there was an answer already, ive been searching for days on the threads and ahvent found much on my questions, but i did attempt my best to answer them myself before ending up here.
