So the wifi and signal uses the same hardware?

I will try your suggestion on the lowest firmware flashing and update later on. Thank you Bakisha. :D

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msl:
Hello everyone

So, I fixed the problem of my tablet being bricked by installing the factory stock 4.0.4 ROM on it, and it has been my go-to resolution for the past couple of days, while I have been struggling to get the upgrade I have been waiting for, for so long.

However, no matter what I seem to do, my device just will not accept the upgrade, and I cannot understand why. Here is what I have done.

Number 1

My android was running a stock 4.1.2 downloaded from Sammobile. I am not sure of the country/region I downloaded at the time, but I think it was either German or from the U.K. I bought my N8000 in China and flashing the firmware to get access to Google stuff was the first thing I did and then upgraded via Sammobile, formerly samfirmware I think. When I saw the 4.4.2 KitKat on Sammobile I downloaded the German upgrade, flashed via Odin like I always had done, and it failed.

I then went on to try via KIES and it did say, that a firmware upgrade was available, however it got stuck and my device bricked. Which led to my 2-day marathon flashing of roms to try and fix it.

Number 2

Flashed the factory 4.0.1 rom using ODIN 1.83, factory reset + cache wipe and then Odin flash the 4.4.2 - Failed in ODIN.

Number 3

Flashed the factory 4.0.1 rom using ODIN 1.83, factory reset + cache wipe and then - Used OTA from settings to upgrade my device. This works until 4.1.2 and then I am told that my device has been modified and that no upgrades are available.

I then try to Odin Flash the Indian 4.4.2 from Sammobile - Failed in Odin

Number 4

Flashed the factory 4.0.1 rom using ODIN 1.83, factory reset + cache wipe and then OTA to 4.1.2. Then I connect to KIES to download the firmware upgrade and it fails and device bricks.

Number 5

Flashed the factory 4.0.1 rom using ODIN 1.83, factory reset + cache wipe and then OTA to 4.1.2. Then I root the device with Framaroot and install triangle away and use the system status modification to trick my tablet into thinking, or realizing, that it is in fact an official.

The OTA upgrade is now available, 800MB downloaded and installation begins, but the process fails and I am left in 4.1.2. I try again, same result. I flash via Odin, it fails, I try Kies it bricks.

Is it just me or is my tablet actively fighting me on this?

Is there anything I can do? Any suggestions? China is not exactly full of Samsung Service Centers, although I am sure a big city like Chongqing has one or two?

I had made a backup of my Moto E as I had to return the phone to Flipkart and get a new moto e from them as it was giving problems and i did it by using this application and it made the backup pretty fast. Sometimes it also says no device connected when checked at connection status but my phone is connected via usb and mobogenie is working.

But now when i am trying to put that backup in my new phone it is saying :Please unlock your device and allow restore, Be patient." and after that nothing comes or starts.

Please help

another method for custom ringtones/sounds back up

I have found that backing up the pim.vol file from the phone (copy to SD, HR, rename the new pim.vol and than copy from SD the file + SR is working better.

The method backs up your contacts, calendar, ringtones and call hystory (at least) and it does not create duplicates if you resysnc with x-change server.

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarod004:
Hello everyone,

I am experiencing an odd issue with my G PAD 8.3. It seems to randomly "appear" that the microSD is unmounted (when i check my filemanager, i am unable to enter /storage/external_SD... However, when I go to settings -> storage, the SD card is not exactly unmounted as I still have the Unmount SD card option still available. When I check the usage though its showing as 0GB. So what I do is, I unmount the SD from the settings menu, then remount it from the same menu thereafter. It will fix the issue, but after some time, it will again show as mounted but 0GB used.

My current setup is:

ROM: Slimkat 4.4.4 latest weekly build

Sdcard: 32 GB Sandisk

What I suspect is either of the following:

1. A bug with the ROM (since there isnt a stable release of Slimkat on the g pad)

2. An issue with the microSD. It might fail soon

3. An issue with one of the apps. Might be worth noting that I have foldermount installed on my tablet. since it is an application that mounts and unmounts directories from the microSD, perhaps this may cause the problem, though i havent seen anyone who have experienced a similar issue.

Any ideas what could cause this?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleekmason:
Lookup sandisk sdcard problems on google.

Sandisk was having issues with some of their cards. Pop in a different one to make sure its not the tablet.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jarod004:
Thanks mate, ill pop one right in when I find one lying around. I might also try to slow format to FAT32 and then format the card using the tablet and see if it helps.... Just wondering if anyone else is having a similar issue. Been googling around, and the closest things I can see are people that are having issues when their microSD randomly gets unmounted... in my case its not really unmounted, just showing capacity is 0 and after a umount/remount cycle, it works again then shows 0gb again after some time...

Thanks for your response.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattNoir:
Same issue here.

Slimkat v4.4.4 latest weekly build

SanDisk 32GB ultra class10

Not using that folder app and SD worked normally before slimkat so I assume it's rom bug, and it's sad and I'm thinking about going back to stock. And one more thing - installed SD monitor and SD unmounts on screen off and then remounts when you turn screen back on. As no problems were detected on stock kitkat I think it's another bug of slimkat. Where can I report it?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muiriddin:
I do not trust SanDisk anymore. Most of my earlier trouble was caused by a bad card that failed way to early from them.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattNoir:
I trust sandisk more than anything, but this case was just coincidence. My problem was resolved, when I downgraded back to 4.2.2 stock and then I could do what I wanted, currently I have slimkat again and almost 24hours no unmounts :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] puritan007:
I recently had someone ask me how to, and why to check an MD5, so I thought I would give them this lovely guide. *this is my first guide attempt, but I hope to make more. if you know WAY more about this issue than I do that is OK, feel free to correct me in a polite manner, I do not know everything after all*

MD5 is a checksum that verifies the integrity of a zip or rar or .7zip file. When you make the .zip, .rar, or .7zip file, you make a MD5 number off of that file, or a HASH file, hash code, MD5 code, whatever you want to name it. Anyway, it uses an algorithm to give you this numerical/alphabetical code which you can then compare to your file.

WHY? Well you are transferring this file from device to device, or through the pc, through the internet, through a server, and things can get lost or stolen. Antiviruses can steal pieces, servers, or data loss through the internet can lose pieces, yet the file SEEMS the right size, and can SEEM like it is ok, and in fact, you flash it to your phone and things do not work.

This is a reason I like torrents. They make, and check an MD5 for you, and remove some of the risk of a bad download, however that is for a different guide.

In this guide I use the free, and easy MD5 checker you can get from the play store. I am crazy so I check my md5 on my pc, then again after the transfer to the phone. You may just check it once on the phone, to save time.

Download the file to your phone. Copy the MD5 alpha/numeric. for the guide I had transfered the file from my computer, so I made a .txt file to save the md5 in. The screen shots pretty much speak for themselves... Keep in mind that I was using a beta rom you will have your rom and your rom names. I used root explorer, rb text editor, and MD5checker. Many thanks to those who provided these tools, and this rom I was using in the guide.

While searching the web I found this OUYA forum post and thought it might work on th FTV too.

I just had to try. IT WORKED!

1 - Plug in a USB keyboard. May have to be wired.

2 - While booting - Press Alt+PrintScreen/SysRq+I

3 - Repeat 1-3 times. You should get to Update screen.

4 - Press the HOME button on the keyboard.

5 - YOU HAVE RECOVERY MODE!

I selected Factory Reset.

It took a little longer to boot. Prompted for missing remote & press Home.

Signing in NOW!

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luxferro:
This is nothing new (using adb to reboot into recovery). But it's not useful when you brick the OS and there is no ADB.

The OP found the way into the recovery w/o an OS, which is pretty key to unbrick your firetv, as long as you have a working recovery partition. Now we can also do complete flashes via update from adb (which probably allows sideloading the OTA packages).

Can someone give precise instructions to navigate the "update screen menu" blind? On my TV, the menu is completely cropped out. I don't even know if it's appearing when I press Home.

Does the menu come up instantly when you press Home on the Update Failed Screen?

Is it okay to press Home several times, or does that make the menu go away/toggle?

When you press Home, is the first menu item already selected or do you need to press down once to highlight the first menu item?

To get to the factory reset options do you press: Home > Down > Down > Enter?

Also, has anyone tried the "update from ADB" option? Does this enable ADB? Is it ADB over wifi or usb only? I ask mainly because factory reseting doesn't help those with a "host file softbrick" (where a modified host file is blocking initial registration). Those people need a way to get to the host file, which factory reseting doesn't touch.

Stock recovery does not work with ADB over USB. And it doesn't have ethernet or wifi drivers. So "update from ADB", which is sideload, will not work on stock recovery.

You can use the keyboard arrows, but the keyboard must be plugged in before recovery starts.
