If you are using it on a GSM network there is a bug in ModemFastDormancy that causes many issues including reboots and screen wakeup problems and battery drain.

You need to root and make several edits to the build.prop to disable ModemFastDormancy and it should be more stable on GSM/WCDMA service.

Is it necessary to root and unlock bootloader to make changes in build.prop file? Or I can edit it without unroot?

I believe that root is required to edit the build.prop file... I don't know much about adb so idk if you could push the edited build.prop without root permission

That is the post in the main thread for GSM service where I listed the build.prop edits to disable ModemFastDormancy.

It is also possible that this issue maybe fixed in the upcoming 4.4.4 update, but that is just a guess.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meetingpote:
Hy, I own an S5 G900F. I flashed a stock rom latest version then my S5 root before flashing a rom Omega 2. Everything worked perfectly until I decided to change my sdcard having taken care to move all the files present on my old sd card on news.

At start of my S5 nothing worked, I have the screen that lights up with the SAMSUNG GALAXY S5 logo, powered by ANDROID but the top right I have the following message in red: kernel is not enforced seandroid and yellow: set warranty bit kernel.

I can not switch to recovery since disappeared, I just can enter download mode.

With odin so I tried to flash my S5 with stock rom (XEF-G900FXXU1ANE2-20140519102224).

Here is the odin message when I load this rom:

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5 ..

<OSM> Check MD5 .. Do not unplug the cable ..

<OSM> Please wait ..

<OSM> 900FXXU1ANE2_G900FOXX1AND3_G900FXXU1ANE2_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully

<OSM> ..

<OSM> Leave CS.

My S5 is well recognized by odin, it tells me blue com port 3 and

<ID:0/003> Added!

Top right of the screen of my S5 I have these messages:

ODIN MODE

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

The flash stops with S5 on the screen messages:

MMC: mmc_read fail

ODIN: flash read failure

I do not know what to do! Is it a hardware brick or a simple software problem??

Thank you for trying to help me if it is possible. I hope to have been clear :confused:

best regards,

Sorry for my english, this is a google translation :(

Not bricked but you need to flash a pit file along with the firmware, look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2737448 for the correct pit file or how to extract one if yours isn`t listed (need root for that).
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meetingpote:
Thank you for your quick response but I already tried to flash the pit with odin without success always with the same message MMC: mmc_read fail etc ...

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Something, some glitch apparerently corrupted your kernel. And that (probably subsequently) corrupted your partition structure. You are soft bricked at this point.

As gee2012 suggested, you now need to flash both the PIT and a full stock image. Stop trying to flash random PIT files or you may end up hard bricked. You need to identify the correct PIT and use that one. The PIT file should match your phone model, original carrier (i.e. match your baseband) and ROM size.

Flash the correct PIT in conjunction with a full stock Odin image from the matching carrier. Note that stock firmware is flashed as a tar file, but the PIT file needs to be flashed as a PIT file, if you are trying to flash it while it's still zipped that alone will cause it to fail.

Sorry for flooding this Forum with something basic as this but as a mere mortal I don't possess the mental capacity nor stamina to crash course my way in to this whole developers battleground.

I got a HTC ONE S that had been unlocked( I think) and when stupid me tried to do a system update (uncustomed to the way of the android as a convert apple-noob:silly:) I updated the phone with some kind of CID package which immediately sent the HTC in to the dreadded:

"This build is for development purposes only 20second loop of doom"

so after hours of studying this ancient language of boots, CID, builds, and alien laungage mumbo I havn't even been able to get the USB fastboot to work.

thusly I admit defeat and beg and plead to ye ascent beings only know as developers to make a complete noob-proof course of action how to tackle this peculiar problem.

so can anyone please make a step by step guid of what to download, how to install, where to get it and what to do That'd beeee swell.:highfive:

also I'll be going away so may not answer until sunday

any takers on helping me solve this riddle?:(
[HTC One S] 808phone:
Welcome to the world of bricking and screwing up. This is not like Apple jailbreaking where you press one button on a website and it works.

This is pain and suffering. I would try and run an RUU to get the phone to stock. There are tons of threads on how to run an RUU. If the phone is not S-OFF, you will have to relock boot loader to run the RUU.
[HTC One S] LuckyXII:
alright cheers, pretty sure it's S-ON and despite not knowing anything you just said at least it's something.

I also assume I'll need USB fastboot for this so I guess I'll start by trying to get that working
[HTC One S] LuckyXII:
Anyone else care to explain the steps to take in greater detail? This was not a failed attempt at jailbreaking it was purely accidental so I have no experience doing this

Edit: I might add I suck at searching through forums aswell (especially when I don't know what I'm looking for) so maybe just a link to the proper threads would help me loads
[HTC One S] 808phone:
To get back to stock, you run an RUU (ROM update utility). Here is a thread:

[HTC One S] LuckyXII:
cannot open "Unlock_code.bin" :/

tried everything... changing the directive in cmd to match the location of the bin file but nothing works

adb can't find my device but fastboot can which could be why the RUU nor unlocking bootloader won't work and to get adb to work I need to enable USB debugging which can't be done while the phone is looping (unless some1 knows the right command line)
[HTC One S] LuckyXII:
I am retarded

since I got this phone second hand I didn't know what had been done with it other than what I installed to cause my problems...

one of the things that had been done previously was unlocking bootloader.. hence the very obvious "Unlocked" in the boot menu.... sooo unlocking an unlocked bootloader was kinda redundant

tried oem locking the boot b4 but missed to specify where the files where (C:adb), lock worked and RUU installed without a hing!

thanks for your help if I knew what I was doing your instructions would have worked perfectly!
[HTC One S] 808phone:
Alright!!!!!! Well, you are set!

So..... now that's it's back to stock. Are you going to use it as-is? Or are you planning to try a custom ROM again?

Try booting into the boot loader by shutting off the phone, then pressing volume down while pressing power. If it doesn't go to boot loader, then press and hold power for something like 10 seconds until the phone shuts off, then press volume down, and power again. Keep holding volume down until you get the boot loader menu.

Write down what it says about your HBOOT and whether you are S-OFF or S-ON.

DO NOT CHOOSE ANY COMMANDS FOR NOW

Press and hold power until the phone turns off again when you are done. Then press power again to turn the phone on again after a few seconds to use your phone regularly.
[HTC One S] LuckyXII:

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Reef:
Hello..

I played around with my prohpet and tried to install som different ROMs.. At the end I nearly bricked it, so now (with a little trubble), Im back to the latest Imate ROM, which I know is stable..

However, when I reset my device it says:

IPL: 1.00

SPL: 2.12.000

GSM: 02.0.2.21

...: 2.13.9.23

And Im pretty sure that my IPL was different before I started fooling around with the device.. It functions allright now, it seams, but It's a bit slow when rebooting..

Have I done something wrong, and how do I correct it?

Many thanks

Please.. Any wise person knows just a litlle bit about this?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] alextom:
Hi Reef. When the latest official imate ROM was on my JAMin, there was IPL 1.00 & SPL 2.13.0000. After upgrade to AKU 2.3, SPL upped to 2.15.0000, IPL is still 1.00. So I think its no problem. In addition - do you remember your parameters before your "playing with Prophet"?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Reef:
I didn't write it down anywhere no, so it might just be me forgetting..

But im 100% sure that it is more slow when booting now.. but its not a big problem..

Thanks for your reply
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Putra:
Does anyone think the IPL version affects the speed of a reboot?

I think that most likely it's because your current ROM has many progs in its startup folder... My boot time used to be fast. Now after 7 months w/o a hard reset & many, many installs and uninstalls, my boot time is very slow. I don't have many progs in my startup, but my registry and windows folder is bloated for sure from the various progs I installed & uninstalled.
[General Questions and Answers] PecataRulz:
Hi guys i recently bought an i5s replica phone mtk6572, but the default launcher they have put is kinda laggy, so i did install iLauncher which segnificantly improved the performance. My question is - is it possible to delete the default launcher they installed and also if not how can i make the notification bar transperent when using iLauncher. When im using the default launcher the notification bar is transperent, but when i use iLauncher it's not. The jpeg from homescreen is with iLauncher (not transperent noty bar). The jpeg from app manager is for the default launcher!
[General Questions and Answers] Nihal @A-JAX:
You can disable the default laucher in the app properties (2nd image) if you don't like/use it . If your phone is rooted then you can delete the launcher from system and also can use xposed modules to make the status bar transparent.
[General Questions and Answers] PecataRulz:
I don't have the option to disable it (its gray), but i can force stop it. Does this going to make any difference?
[General Questions and Answers] Nihal @A-JAX:
If you are currently using the stock launcher you can't disable it. First install any desired launcher and then disable stock launcher .
[General Questions and Answers] PecataRulz:
I did that - nothing happens. My whole point is to make that gray status bar transperent, because it really annoys me, but i guess that would not be possible without rooting my phone and installing a custom rom right?
[General Questions and Answers] Nihal @A-JAX:
Yes you must root your device to make status bar transparent or to install any custom rom .
[General Questions and Answers] lava406q:

You can easily delete default launcher

but you will need two things

1] rooted phone

2] replacement launcher

first root your phone, than install another launcher , whatever you want i will suggest solo launcher.

Then install an app Root App Delete.

Now delete the stock launcher , but before that set the new launcher as default.

: hope you dont brick your phone , though this is tested.:laugh:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Razorless:
Is it possible to format/wipe the system partition without a custom recovery and therefore triggering knox?

It seems fastboot is not working and Odin doesn't wipe the system, does it?

Edit:

Odin does wipe system and deletes leftovers.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] buhohitr:
If you use odin with full stock firmware it should wipe system.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Razorless:
I couldn't find any reliabel source, but it seems Odin only overwrites the system. That would mean leftover files with different names would not be deleted. Does it matter? Probably not, but I feel uncomfortable without a proper system wipe. A messed up system can cause a lot of bugs obviously.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dodo99x:
Odin doesn't just copy files, it overwrites the entire partition.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Razorless:
That's what I'm saying. If it overwrites the system than files with different file names would not be deleted. That's the reason why you format the system when going CM->Stock and vice versa

Just wondering
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dodo99x:
Not sure what you mean by override the system. If Odin flashes the System partition, none of the files that were there previously would survive that operation, regardless of filename.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Razorless:
That's what I think, but I'm still not quite convinced. Too bad I didn't pay attention to that the last time I flashed through Odin.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] buhohitr:
Odin a stock ROM will put your device back to original factory condition, just like a brand new phone. It is the cleanest you can get.

Hello. I bought my Z2 about a month ago. Everything worked out well.

One day at work i noticed i have no signal at all, with the red X next to the signal bars. I thought my sim card was just loose or something

Tried other sim cards on the phone and they dont work either. The phone DOES get reception (even h+) somewhere when in town, but still with only 1 or 2 bars. (103-105dbm)

At home and at work i get no signal at all...

Tried messing with APN settings and checked them many times. Tried fiddling with airplane mode on and off.

At the moment im backuping the phone and going to try a factory reset. No hopes that it will work though.

Any ideas? The phone HAS been under a warranty screen repair because i shattered it on the first week of use (was my wife actually)

But it worked fine for many weeks after the glass repair..

It's always when you explain a problem that they don't believe you.

They probably just sent it to their own repair for some dude to test their card in the phone cause they think i'm so stupid that i haven't tried that yet. Always just: "of course its fixable easy piece of cake"

So, I was trying to unlock, root and flash the phone with a new ROM. I have managed to bugger the phone beyond recognition. There is no OS on at this time, and I am unable to flash any ROM. I was shooting for AOKP-42-20130714 with gapps-jb-20130301-signed, but the phone kept complaining about all the google suite apps stopping, over and over.

I tried a gazillion searches, tried all kinds of methods, nothing.

In my frustration, I ended up doing an advance wipe thinking a fresh install of everything would help. Well, not even ADB sideload is helping any and fails miserably.

TWRP constantly complains that ""device does not appear to be rooted. Install SuperSU now?" Over and over, so apparently that is failing too.

So, if you have a solution beyond the plain vanilla answers, let me know. I am tempted to say that I'll paypal $50 to the person that actually can figure out the problem AND helps walk me through the steps to get this effing phone going again.
